that might have happened just before that, and of course we do know more about the suspect at the moment. open. was a west african man who had settled status near the uk, he is not thought to have had a criminal record but we think there was some history of mental illness but he was a person who had the right to live in the uk and lived here for many years. in the uk and lived here for many ears. ., ~ i. thousands of nhs appointments in england are thought to have been cancelled, as another three day strike byjunior doctors began this morning. british medical association members walked out at 7am, after rejecting a 5% pay offer from the government. with the hot weather placing extra demands on a&e units, people are being urged to use services sensibly. our health correspondent katharine da costa reports. an upbeat mood among

junior doctors in london. back on the picket lines for the third time this year. but their message is clear. a 5% offer doesn't begin to make up for 15 years of below inflation pay rises. doctors are out on strike because we want to restore our pay. we are seeing a workforce crisis because doctors are fleeing the country. we don't have enough doctors left. so this is not just about justice and morality for doctors, put that to one side if you don't believe it, but we need a credible offer to retain doctors. hospitals like the royal preston in lancashire have drafted in senior doctors to help prioritise emergency and critical care. but other work is having to be postponed. nationally, around 150,000 appointments are expected to be cancelled over the three day strike. i am becoming worried about the cumulative impact on our staff and the impact it is having on our patients, at a time when we are really working hard to recoverfrom the pandemic,

to get on top of our waiting lists, to make sure we treat our cancer patients — having to cancel activity like this is heartbreaking. the impact of the heat wave in parts of the country's adding to the pressure on control rooms and emergency departments. but the dispute looks set to intensify, withjunior doctors standing firm on their 35% pay demand. public support is mixed. 35% seems an awful amount, an awful lot compared to what everyone else has been happy to settle for. i appreciate there is challenges with that, but at the moment we don't have the money to pay for it as a country. i don't believe in striking. however, i do believe that they should get more wages, and i do believe both doctors and the nurses should be paid more. hospital leaders are calling for both sides to hold urgent talks

to find a way through the deadlock. we have made them an offer, 5% plus a lump sum in line with what has been offered for paramedics, for midwives, for nurses, for many others within the nhs, and today, unfortunately, the junior doctors have refused to move from their demand for 35%. there is still a risk of a summer of strikes — junior doctors in scotland plan to walk out next month, while nurses in england are voting on whether to continue their action, and consultants are being balloted too. katharine da costa, bbc news.

internally, and therefore not able to focus on what people want in their broader sense. and, remember, we were likely to get tomorrow, the mp5 investigations into whether mps investigations into whether borisjohnson mps investigations into whether boris johnson misled mps investigations into whether borisjohnson misled parliament, boris johnson misled parliament, next borisjohnson misled parliament, next week, a debate on that in the coming week, those by—elections and all of that will mean that these arguments keep coming back. damian, thank you for now. the uk economy grew by 0.2% in april, after shrinking slightly in march, according to the latest figures. it means that in the three months from febraury to april the economy was stagnant, growing by only a tenth of a percentage point. and inflation remains high — which has implications for people's mortgages and rents. our economics correspondent andy verity is with me. explain what it all means? well, what does _ explain what it all means? well, what does the _ explain what it all means? well, what does the economy - explain what it all means? well, what does the economy mean? l explain what it all means? well, i what does the economy mean? we should remind ourself what is we are talking about is people and their economic activity, the work they do, the goods and services they provide, every haircut, every bus ride, car

made, that is what the economy is, when we talk about it growing and rip ranking we are talking about the value of all those goods and services rising or falling. value of all those goods and services rising orfalling. when it is stagnant it is a particularly unfortunate combination with the inflation we are got, prices rising but 8.7% on average, that is faster rises than we see in other countries like the us where it has dropped to 4%. that is what is concerning the markets and should concern us, if we are about to take out a mortgage, thatis are about to take out a mortgage, that is only a minority of the population and you have people who rent, they could be affected indirectly but there is a direct effect on the cost of mortgages and it is like after the mini budget, because the markets are expecting interest rates to have to rise higher, closerto interest rates to have to rise higher, closer to 6% over the next two years so whereas after the mini budget and jeremy hunt calmed things down you have average interest rates of 3% or less, now you have 4.8. that is higher than avenue the mini budget so mortgages are more expensive and people are worried

about what that might mean for the rest of the economy.— rest of the economy. thank you for now. the boss of itv has told mps that a relationship between phillip schofield and a younger member of staff was deeply inappropriate, because of the imbalance of power. dame carolyn mccall was being questioned about the company's approach to safeguarding, following the former presenter�*s departure from this morning. she also said itv would have taken action, but had no evidence of the relationship. our media correspondent, david sillito, was watching the parliamentary session. i see nothing ahead of me but blackness. i see nothing ahead of me but blackness— blackness. phillip schofield's revelations _ blackness. phillip schofield's revelations have _ blackness. phillip schofield's revelations have a _ blackness. phillip schofield's i revelations have a relationship blackness. phillip schofield's - revelations have a relationship with a much younger member of staff referred to today as person x has ended his career. but what did itv know? there have been rumours but that the company said there was no proof. irate

of murder. and coming up: how 95% of women diagnosed with early breast cancer now survive for at least five years. coming up on bbc news. with all the elevated hopes for england in the ashes, there is still concern over ben stokes' knee as the captain wears a brace during a training session in which he barely bowls. the lifeboat charity the rnli says it was called out nearly 300 times last year to rescue people trying to cross the channel — saving 108 migrants. it means small boat crossings made up 3% of all its lifeboat launches. it's the first time the charity has released figures detailing its operations — and it says it makes no apology for saving lives at sea.

simonjones reports from one of its hubs, in poole in dorset. a mid—channel rescue. these harrowing pictures released by the rnli show the scenes that crew members can face as they try to save the lives of people desperate to reach the uk in flimsy boats. fortunately here everyone was rescued, but the call outs have become more regular. i think while men, women and children continue to get in small, unseaworthy rubber boats and make a perilousjourney across one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world, there is always a risk of drowning, but the rnli is a charity that seeks to save lives at sea. and whilst anyone could drown, we believe very strongly that no one should. so what sort of thing are the lifeboat crews facing in the channel? we've had babies thrown at our lifeboats, women screaming, men screaming. so it's a very chaotic situation. but our crews are trained now how to manage that. statistics released for the first time by the rnli show last year,

the charity responded to over 9000 call outs in the uk and ireland. 290 of those were to boats carrying migrants in the channel. the charity says 108 people on those dinghies would have lost their lives if it hadn't intervened. crew members are now routinely being trained in dealing with mass casualties at sea. this exercise is testing new equipment, which aims to recover people from the water more quickly. that could make the difference between life and death. you can see we've got some lifeguards in the water and they're holding onto yellowjohn buoys. and thereafter, the next challenge was how to get them out the water quickly. and in that respect, we've come up with something we call the sea step. you can see the crew on that. now that allows two crew members to get down to the water level and physically haul people out in a much more efficient way. traditionally, it can take a minute to get each person onto the lifeboat. these sea steps can get more than ten up in the same time. the rnli has faced criticism from some people who say the charity is simply acting as a taxi service for migrants who want to get

across the channel. but the rnli says it makes no apology for rescuing people at sea, and will come to the aid of anyone in danger. last week, the prime minister visited dover to declare the government's plans to tackle small boat crossings are starting to work. he said numbers were down by 20% in the first five months of the year compared with the same period last year. but some say the weather has played a major part in this. and on sunday and monday, more than a thousand people made the crossing. it looks set to be another busy summer ahead for those tasked with saving lives at sea. the rnli says whatever the numbers, it will be ready. simonjones, bbc news on the english channel. at least 59 people have died after a boat carrying migrants sank off southern greece. the greek coastguard said it's rescued more than 100 survivors from the stricken fishing boat. this is the biggest loss

of life so far this year, as migrants try to reach europe across the mediterranean sea. authorities said they feared the death toll will rise. lawyers representing four british women who accuse the controversial influencer andrew tate of rape, assault and controlling behaviour have launched high court proceedings against him claiming compensation. andrew tate and his brother tristan are facing separate allegations of rape and human trafficking in romania, which police there are still investigating. the two men are currently under house arrest in bucharest, and deny the charges against them. lucy williamson reports. accusations from four uk women arrived today at andrew tate's door. the british lawyer delivering their civil claims of rape, serious assault, and coercive behaviour directly to his home in bucharest. but the doors to the compound remained closed. probably what i'm going to do is just pop these through the grille.

we will consider them delivered. the legal letter was sent on behalf of three women whose criminal complaints several years ago were never brought to trial. and a fourth woman who came forward more recently. in a statement, andrew tate's press manager said he categorically denied the accusations, describing them as acts of intimidation. four women that you're representing, do you have indications there are any more? yes, i've had conversations with other, with others who have claimed to have been a victim of abuse by andrew tate also. how many? maybe half a dozen. earlier this month we interviewed andrew tate at his home here in bucharest. we put to him the claims of one uk woman who spoke anonymously to the bbc accusing him of emotional manipulation. his response, she didn't exist. yesterday both brothers were summoned to romania's organised crime unit to be told that

separate human trafficking allegations against them in the case here were being widened into a charge of continuous human trafficking. an indictment in that criminal investigation is expected shortly. a deal to create the biggest uk mobile phone operator has been struck by vodafone and three uk it would have a combined 27 million customers and regulators approve the merger. 95% of women diagnosed with early breast cancer now survive for at least five years. a long term study of women diagnosed in england shows big improvements in survival rates since the 1990s, partly because of more targeted treatments. our medical editor fergus walsh has been looking at the analysis and is with me. and for early breast cancer that has not spread to other parts of the

what happens when these things get more intelligent than us? they could act for themselves rather than for our needs. those warnings about the risks from artificial intelligence feel a world away from the medieval streets of strasbourg. here the european union is first out of the blocks to try and bring in the world's first ai laws. margrethe vestager is the european chief leading the ai regulation charge. ai will be everywhere in everything we do. you know, your hairdresser will use al to suggest you another way of doing your hair. so it's important that every authority also get the competence to relate to the effects of the use of ai. so i don't believe in sort of one major ai authority. what do you think is the biggest threat that al poses? i have listened a lot to those who said that there is a threat

of extinction, and probably that may exist. but i think the likelihood is quite small. i think the ai risks are more that people will be discriminated. the plan here is to try and categorise applications of ai into levels of risk. at the low end are ai enabled video games or spam filters. high risk ai systems include those which evaluate credit scores and access to loans and housing. this is where the focus of strict controls will be. at the totally unacceptable end of the scale are uses like facial recognition systems in real time in public places. something already deployed in china. as we've seen with social media, even tech products set up with the best intentions can still be misused. europe says it wants to regulate the uses of ai rather than the tech itself. the trick will be having firm rules that don't stifle innovation. but big tech firms like adobe, who are building ai products, say the industry can't afford to slow down and wait

for regulators. the uk's current plan is folding ai regulation into existing regulators. the us so far only has voluntary codes. china says its citizens must know when they're dealing with al. regulators hope these first rules will keep it on the right track. zoe kleinman, bbc news, strasbourg. real madrid have completed the signing of england midfielderjude bellingham, from borussia dortmund, on a six year deal. the spanish giants will pay more than £88 million for the 19—year—old — with potential add—ons which if achieved could reach £115 million. bellingham, who started his career at birmingham city, will be presented as a real madrid player at a ceremony on thursday. time for a look at the weather.
