6:02 am
our main story. mps will debate a report later which found that boris johnson repeatedly misled parliament about lockdown parties in downing street. mrjohnson resigned as an mp last week after seeing the report's conclusions in advance. it is unclear whether rishi sunak or other senior conservatives will attend the debate. our political correspondent iain watson reports. they say there's no such thing as bad publicity. although he's no longer an mp, borisjohnson still has a way of dominating the headlines. today, mps will give their views on the reports by a cross—party committee of politicians, which found that the former prime minister lied on multiple occasions to parliament about partygate. the report said borisjohnson misled the house on an issue of the greatest importance and did so repeatedly. if borisjohnson had still been an mp, the committee would have recommended that he was suspended for three months and are calling for him to lose his parliamentary pass. this cabinet minister says he'll neither vote for nor against the report because he feels
6:03 am
the proposed punishment is too harsh. i think that the final conclusion, the decision to impose a 90—day penalty is not merited by the evidence that the committee has put forward. so will you vote for the report or not? i will not vote, i will abstain. borisjohnson called the report's conclusions deranged and the committee itself a kangaroo court. so you can expect some of his supporters to be jumping to his defence in today's debate. it's not clear, having aired their views, whether mps will simply nod the report through or whether there will be a recorded vote. if so, that could be tricky for rishi sunak. if he votes for the report, he'll upset pro—johnson activists, if he votes against, the opposition will say he lacks integrity. if he doesn't turn up to vote at all, they'll accuse him of being weak. with four by elections looming, rishi sunak is keen to move on from partygate, but this video shows just how difficult that will be.
6:04 am
this is conservative party headquarters in december 2020, when socialising between different households was banned. the attendees were working on the london mayoral campaign and not for boris johnson. but the danger for rishi sunak is that events like these tarnish his party's brand and the political damage goes beyond the reputation of a previous prime minister. iain watson, bbc news. let's talk to our chief political correspondent nick eardley, who's in westminster. morning to you. tell me, what i'm expecting to hear today? good morninu. expecting to hear today? good morning- the _ expecting to hear today? good morning. the debate - expecting to hear today? good morning. the debate this - expecting to hear today? (emf. morning. the debate this afternoon on borisjohnson�*s morning. the debate this afternoon on boris johnson's feature morning. the debate this afternoon on borisjohnson�*s feature really. i don't there is anyjeopardy in it. whatever happens i think it will pass through the house of commons and that will be a really significant reprimand of the former prime minister, stripping him of his parliamentary pass and saying if he were still an mp he would have been
6:05 am
banned from parliament from 90 days. the question that will be asked this morning is how much of an actual debate there will be. you can expect some mps to turn up and launch quite a staunch defence of the privileges committee. to say its report was thorough, it did its work properly and its conclusions are correct. i would not be surprised if quite a few of borisjohnson�*s allies turn up few of borisjohnson�*s allies turn up as well, saying this is all nonsense. we think they have gone far too far, the punishment is vindictive and for that reason we are opposed to it. whether there will be a vote is not totally clear this morning. i was chatting to some mps who know about the process last night. they were saying we are not sure whether many of borisjohnson�*s allies will turn up and forced the vote saying they are opposed to the findings of the privileges committee. borisjohnson has urged his allies not to force the vote,
6:06 am
saying basically there is no point. 0ne saying basically there is no point. one question asked this morning, what are government minister is going to do? you heard michael gove saying he will not vote, he will actively abstain on it. what about the prime minister? looks to me like he will probably not be in parliament later with the debate thatis parliament later with the debate that is taking place. he was asked about it overnight. he said he thought the privileges committee had done a thoroughjob thought the privileges committee had done a thorough job that he was not going to pre—empt the vote, he did not want to answer the question. really awkward for him because he does not want to indulge in any more conservative splits.— former prime minister david cameron is set to give evidence to the covid inquiry later today. the first stage of the inquiry is scrutinising preparations for a pandemic before 2020 when the virus struck, whether the uk was ready, and decisions made by government in response to the outbreak. labour will today announce
6:07 am
its plan to end british involvement in oil and gas exploration in the north sea if it wins the next general election. party leader sir keir starmer will set out labour's energy policy in a speech in edinburgh, which will also include proposals to scrap the ban on new onshore wind farms in england. the bbc has obtained evidence which casts doubt on the greek coastguard's account of a migrant shipwreck in which hundreds are feared to have died. analysis suggests the boat was not moving for at least seven hours before it capsized last wednesday. 0ur europe correspondent, nick beake, has this report. the greek authorities have faced heavy criticism over their response to this disaster. their argument has always been that the boat was moving in a steady direction towards italy, that it wasn't in danger, and so the people on board did not need to be rescued. now, we've been looking at shipping data, looking at the boats that were in this part of the mediterranean sea on the day of the tragedy. we also look at court
6:08 am
records, logbooks, —— we've also looked at court records, logbooks, photographs and video. we've built up a picture which seriously challenges the official greek version of events. last tuesday morning, from the air, authorities spot the migrant boat. this is a surveillance photo. a simulation we've obtained from a ship—tracking service shows civilian boats in the area in the run—up to the sinking. coastguard and military vessels do not appear. the migrant boat didn't have a tracker, but the yellow pin shows where it eventually goes down. at around 1500 gmt, a ship called the lucky sailor, which gave us its logbook, turned sharply and is asked by the coastguard to supply food and water to the migrant boat. soon after, says the coastguard, its helicopter finds the boat to be on a steady course. but two and a half hours later, at around 6pm, another vessel, the faithful warrior, comes to the same area and is also requested
6:09 am
to supply food to the boats. bbc verify has confirmed this is footage of it happening. from 7:40pm until 10:40pm, greek officials, from a discreet distance, see the boat keeping a steady course and speed, according to their initial statement. but they later published this close—up image, taken in the same time period, which shows no waves around the migrant boat, suggesting it's hardly moving. and let's look again at the activity of the last seven hours. it's all around one specific spot, indicating the migrant boat has barely changed position. remember, all this time, greece says the vessel is not in trouble and is safely on its way to italy, and so no rescue is needed. it is at ”pm that the boat sinks with hundreds on board. and there is a frenzy or ships coming to help. —— and there is a frenzy of ships coming to help. including the celebrity beyond, from where this footage was taken and later sent to the bbc.
6:10 am
a luxury yacht, the mayan queen, is then instructed to assist and takes the survivors to shore. they reach safety at the port of kalamata, but leave behind serious questions about the whole greek response. the united nations has already called for an investigation into what happened and it's reminding countries about their legal and moral obligation, they say, to intervene if they see people in danger. a number of european countries in recent years have pursued a tougher policy when it comes to migration, and in particular when it comes to dealing with migrant boats. in terms of our investigation, the greek authorities are yet to respond, but it's clear that this does raise fresh questions about theirjudgment and what really happened. that was our europe correspondent, nick beake, who worked alongside colleagues at bbc verify, a team of fact—checking investigative journalists.
6:11 am
the home secretary has called on police leaders to ramp up their use of stop and search powers as a way of tackling violent crime. in a letter to chief constables, it is said to target disproportionately black and ethnic authorities. data has been a analysed by scientists saying the temperatures in some areas are four celsius above average for this time of year. more flash flooding could come this week. thunderstorms, winds and hail are sweeping across the uk. 0ur correspondent
6:12 am
vinny mcaviney has more. after a week of sunny and warm weather for most of the country, sunday saw a significant change. thunderstorms across the uk triggered flooding after nearly half a month's of rain injust one hour deluged some areas. in sheffield, a driver had to be rescued from her car after it became stuck in rising waters. there was disruption at rotherham general hospital after water started entering parts of a&e. some nonemergency ambulances had to be transferred elsewhere. whilst in wales, father's day lunches at wrexham afc�*s ground had to be abandoned after storms caused structural damage to one of its stands, requiring an evacuation. north wales police received numerous calls, with some roads left impassable. and at edgbaston, play had to be halted in the first ashes test due to the wet weather. drivers in cornwall also struggled in the conditions. monday will see a return of good weather for most of the country,
6:13 am
but the yellow heavy rain warning remains in place for northern england and scotland until noon. vincent mcaviney, bbc news it was crazy in parts of the uk yesterday, wasn't it? i didn't have a coat. i got used to dry lifestyles. carol can tell us what we need this week. the weather warning from that report nowjust the weather warning from that report now just applies to the weather warning from that report nowjust applies to north—east scotland and parts of central scotland. we could still see a deluge of rain. we will be left with a day of sunny spells and scattered showers. the showers themselves could be heavy and thundery. you can see the extent of the rainfall pushing north. some of that has been thundery. we can still see in parts
6:14 am
of eastern scotland 15 to 25 millimetres of rain, possibly more than locally. it continues to move north during the day, turning cherie. a lot of dry weather but also some showers. some of those heavy and thundery potentially affecting edgbaston. we could catch one or two at queens, which starts today. cooler in the north, 15 degrees but generally 21 to 25 degrees but generally 21 to 25 degrees and feeling humid. this evening and overnight the rain will move north across scotland, clearing. a lot of dry weather and more heavy rain coming from the south. there could be torrential downpours across parts of the south and west midlands, wales and possibly further east into central southern england. it will be a sticky night, 11 to 15 the overnight lows. the rain could delay the start
6:15 am
of play tomorrow at edgbaston as it continues to push steadily north. some of that will be heavy and thundery. behind it as temperatures rise we could see a few showers. try it in the south east of the good news the start of play tomorrow at edgbaston as it continues to push steadily north. some of that will be heavy and thundery. behind it as temperatures rise we could see a few showers. try it in the south east of the good news for royal ascot. temperatures down a touch but still it will feel humid. we are prepared. thank you very much. do you want to borrow a coat? i need two. let's take a look at some of today's newspapers. many of them feature the emergence of a video showing conservative party workers dancing at their own social gathering during the second covid lockdown at the end of 2020. the mirror headline is "guilty party." the daily mail has a similar image but its main story is about some experts insisting interest rate rises should be paused to help households.
6:16 am
the bank in england is going to give its interest rate decision later this week. 0ne senior broker tells the paper the expected 13th consecutive bank of england increase is "insanity." the times leads on ministers reportedly considering prioritising british citizens for council housing, as part of addressing concerns over migration. it also has an image of andy murray breaking into a big smile yesterday, when he realised — post—match — that his wife and children were in the crowd at nottingham. he did not know they were there. and one of the most read stories on the bbc news website is about the ex—liverpool and scotland footballer graeme souness taking part in that cross—channel swim. breakfast has been following graeme on that challenge and we'll be hearing from him just after eight.
6:17 am
last month, the football legend graeme souness told us you may remember how, last month, the former rugby league player rob burrow, who has motor neurone disease, was pushed around a marathon course in leeds by his great friend kev sinfield. well, rob took part in another event yesterday, but with some much smaller helpers. rob's daughters macy and maya pushed him around the fun run section of the annual run for all race in leeds — they started fast, finished slightly slower, and said it was a great way to spend father's day together. their brotherjackson and mum lindsey ran it, too. well done to all of them. a family affair on father's day. absolutely lovely, isn't it? the daily mail with a picture of the young farmer of the year. joe is 11 years old. mucking out the animal sheds,
6:18 am
getting the goats in order. even a tractor. is thatjoe in the middle? with his brother is great yes. they definitely have the outfit sorted. emmerdale their next generation. peaky blinders edition. an interesting interview in the back of the times newspaper. emma raducanu saying sometimes she wished she never won the american open. it has attracted sharks. she says she was extremely naive, in her own words. she said it was brutal and
6:19 am
obviously she had that win and then a series of defeats are now a series of injuries. very, very difficult. i was 19 and 20. some peoplejust of injuries. very, very difficult. i was 19 and 20. some people just saw me as a piggy bank. this moment was meant to be the ultimate. she will learn from that. last month, the football legend graeme souness told us here on breakfast he was taking on the challenge of swimming the channel. he was inspired by a 14—year—old girl named isla, who has the rare skin disease eb, and yesterday graeme completed the 21—mile journey as part of a six—person relay team. john maguire's been following this story in dover and hejoins us now. john, what a weekend it's been for graeme and the team. we will have graeme live on the
6:20 am
programme later.— we will have graeme live on the programme later. we will have graeme live on the rouramme later. ~ . ., ., ,, programme later. what a way to spend father's day yesterday! _ programme later. what a way to spend father's day yesterday! so _ programme later. what a way to spend father's day yesterday! so many - programme later. what a way to spend father's day yesterday! so many of - father's day yesterday! so many of them on the vote. what an achievement. graeme is a very famous footballer and keen cyclist. to go from not much is to swimming the hour—long chunk twice over the channel at the weekend, we had everything. the most fantastic thunderstorms, great dramatic wins and amazing skies. they completed it, that is the plot spoiler. it was tough, emotional, but the whole reason for doing it was to fight the fight against this dreadful condition, fly the flag if you like for the fight against that disease. they did it in spades. they've planned it for a year, they've trained for it for nine months, so now they have to do it.
6:21 am
graeme souness and five other swimmers are about to attempt a non—stop relay swim across the english channel. their calling, their mission their inspiration are people like 14—year—old isla, who has the rare genetic disorder, epidermolysis bullosa, eb. isla was in dover to see them off. her mum, rachel, by her side, her sister, emily, on the phone from america and her dad andy on the boat as part of the swim team. how are we feeling? ready. really? really ready. nervous? not in the slightest. a final good luck call before the channel crossing started. how are you? good. very good. so what are you doing — just watching a bit of tv? yeah. for the first swimmer, sean, one of three former
6:22 am
royal marines in the team, a busman�*s holiday as he swam from the support boat to a beach near dover. hooter wails. well, that hooter meant the challenge had started. changeover. after sean and andy, came graeme's turn to swim for an hour. among cargo ships and ferries, with only the light of the support boat to guide him. that was tough. well done. greatjob. each swimmer entered the water after precisely 60 minutes. isla's dad was up next. i'm quite emotional, to be honest. yeah, i'll bet. yeah.
6:23 am
people have gone before us with eb and brought this thought. you hear the phrase, "standing on the shoulders of giants." people with eb aren't giants physically but mentally courage—wise, they are giants. to do something to help them and those that have passed is just, you know, carry on the fight. next in, husband and wife team rob and steph, whose swim heralded a new day. as the team donned cold and damp wetsuits for their second leg, the english coast disappeared and the french coast appeared. tired, deprived of sleep, the end was in sight, but still almost six hours away. if the first swim was disorientating, the second was emotional. there was time to think. um... yeah, you think a lot. what do you think about? the obvious thing.
6:24 am
a few things. strangely, how lucky i am to have isla in my family and be part of the eb community and meet these guys. it's fantastic. the best time of the last 15 years for me, and... yeah. how fragile isla and the other eb kids are, yet how strong at the same time. it's these, you know, lucky or unlucky at the same time, but strong and fragile at the same time. but it's got to end. this has to end. you know, pain has to stop. you know, i'vejust done an hour in there and it's stopped. but, for them, it never stops. got to stop it. fighting time and tides, a final push saw the team make landfall in france in 12 hours and 17 minutes.
6:25 am
and despite the physical and mental toll, not for a second did they forget why they did it. what i say, it's one of the best experiences of my life. fantastic team. really loved it. but it's one of the worst conditions you can possibly imagine. and that has to stop. yeah. why did you do it, graeme? because i came across the disease. it's the worst thing i've ever seen in my life. and... and we have to find a way, a cure, ultimately, a cure for it. we have a way to make life easier for the children's day to day life. it is the cruelest, nastiest thing i've ever witnessed in my life. and i know other people will see things differently but, for me, it's the worst thing i've ever seen. and ijust wanted to be part of a fight that helps these poor kids. and then, in the last nine months, we've worked hard and we've got here today, and i can tell you it's
6:26 am
a mixture of elation, but also i'm knackered, i'm knackered. she had counted them out and isla counted them back in. i think they swum well. i wasn't on the boat, so i don't know but from what i've been hearing, they swum very well. i'm proud of them. yeah, they're proud of you, too. you know that, don't you? yeah. there is no cure for eb but graeme, andy and the team have raised more than £1 million — money that will fund research into repurposing existing drugs in an attempt to treat and to cure. this challenge may be over, but the fight against eb — the most cruel of diseases — is not. john maguire, bbc news, dover. quite the most extraordinary 2a hours it was. i can tell you. as we
6:27 am
said in the report, the culmination of so much effort of a year's thinking and planning and trying to figure out how they are going to do this. there's months and months of training. it all took a year. i love's father was saying his swimmers an hour, it was intense, very tough. it was over after an hour. but for isla the struggle and pain continues. the money is extremely important. we have talked about this kind of thing with mnd in the past. 0ther charities are working away, chipping away, trying to find a cure. 0ne charity is doing wonderful work. to find a cure. 0ne charity is doing wonderfulwork. people to find a cure. 0ne charity is doing wonderful work. people coming together and trying to find a solution. the swim team will have a reception at the house of commons
6:28 am
tonight. the hunt not only for a cure but for anything to make people's lives easier. a phenomenal journey. we will meet the team, talk to isla and herfamily. if you have been a fan of graeme souness, you will see him as you have never seen him before. iam will see him as you have never seen him before. i am very much looking forward to hearing his reflections and these almost a day after they completed the challenge. i hope he is awake because i know i am struggling. i is awake because i know i am struggling-— is awake because i know! am stru~lin-. . , , ., struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely _ struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely film. _ struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely film. it _ struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely film. it would - struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely film. it would be i struggling. i am sure he is. that was a lovely film. it would be a l was a lovely film. it would be a great chat in an hour and a half. i am sure you can have an extra hour of sleep, maybe. you're watching breakfast. still to come this morning...
6:29 am
# thinking about you.# singer songwriter tom grennan will be joining us on the sofa to chat about his new album, an arena tour — and the small matter of glastonbury this weekend. we have got seven hours, a very special story, someone else playing glastonbury at the weekend. a different story, a different situation but very special indeed. we will share that story later. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning. welcome to bbc london, i'm thomas magill. shoplifting across the capital has risen by more than has risen by more than 20% in the past year, with some london businesses now saying they're going to use
6:30 am
private security firms because, they say, the met response to incidents isn't good enough. the firms are mostly there to act as a deterrent — but they can also make a citizens arrest if necessary. around 400 shops in claphamjunction?are paying for specials patrols to tackle the problem. i understand that there are probably bigger crimes happening elsewhere and the met is stretched, etc. however, you would like to have some sort of a response to have somebody held accountable for the loss that you've had. the met says its not a new development for businesses to employ private security firms and it works closely with them. hundreds of firefighers in london are to be screened for cancer as part of a national health monitoring project. recently evidence has shown that cancer among uk firefighters in their late 30s is over 300% higher than in the general population of the same age range. the testing will look to identify evidence linking occupational cancers with exposure to toxic fire chemicals.
6:31 am
the royal mint is marking the 75th anniversary of the empire windrush ship arriving in the uk with passengers from the caribbean with a new commemorative 50p coin. it's designer, valda jackson, was born in st thomas injamaica, before moving to england in 1964 as a young girls. before moving to england in 1964 as a young girl. the coin depicts two smartly dressed people from the windrush generation. let's see now how the tube is looking. there are delays service between northfields and heathrow terminals on the piccidilly line. 0therwise there's a good service on the rest of the network. it was a mixed bag of weather over the weekend. what's in store for us today and into the week? kate can tell us wuth the weather forcast. good morning. it's a warm and humid start to the new week. one or two mist and fog patches around, but some sunny spells today, some well—scattered showers. the showers, if you get one, you might get a rumble of thunder, but not everywhere will.
6:32 am
the showers will fade into the evening, so dry by the end of today. temperatures reaching 24 celsius. 0vernight tonight, it stays largely dry. clear to start with, but, again, might see a little bit of patchy cloud and mist and fog forming. minimum temperature between 12 and 15c. another warm night. you can see this rain just edging in as we head into tuesday morning. this system will gradually move towards us. bit of a question mark on to how far east it travels, but the potential is there for some heavy rain. it moves away northwards through the afternoon, showers to follow, but still some sunny spells by the end of tuesday and temperatures tomorrow around 23c. as we head through the rest of this week, showers always around, but some decent spells of sunshine and temperatures potentially getting a little warmer into next weekend. more on the bbc news app and on bbc radio london throughout the morning. that's it from me. i'll be back in half an hour. now back tojon and sally.
6:33 am
hello this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. it's expected there'll be anther big rise in mortgage costs this week. some repayments are already hundreds of pounds more a month than they were two years ago. of pounds more a month nina's here to tell us more. of pounds more a month when of pounds more a month is it going to end? good morning. when is it going to end? good morning. i am when is it going to end? good morning. iam popularwith when is it going to end? good morning. i am popular with everyone asking. particularly at the moment with people looking for advice on their mortgage but it is difficult to give because things keep changing. we can look at why. a big week for your diary if you're looking to remortgage. wednesday, we get the latest information on how fast prices are rising. then thursday, a big decision for the bank of england. should they increase interest rates again? remember, theoretically, putting rates up reduces spend, bringing down indlation.
6:34 am
there's a knock—on for mortages and therefore most of us homeowners or renters. right now, for a new two—year fixed mortgage you are looking at an average rate just shy of 6%. and that has leapt up. at the start of last year, the average rate was less than 3%. how does that translate to a chunk from your monthly income compared to 2022 — of course that depends on how much you're borrowing and when you want to finish. but if your mortgage has £250,000 and 20 years left on it, you'd be looking at paying around £400 more per month. if you have £140,000 left, with ten years to go, you're looking at a £181 rise. the big lenders nationwide, natwest and hsbc have all increased their costs — the last two have done so twice in the last week. but we probably haven't seen the end of it.
6:35 am
much depends inflation, it did dip under 10% finally last month but not coming down as much as many economists were expecting, meaning that we are expecting another hike in interest rates, maybe to 4.75% on thursday. we spoke to ian in dorset and his five year deal ends soon which coincides with his son starting nursery. like so many people, our home budgets are already incredibly tight, very well—planned — quite meticulous with every penny pretty much accounted for. so, suddenly, this means we are having to find extra money where there isn't necessarily any extra money to be found and the immediate solution is for me to find more work, get a second job, if needs be, my partner to get a second job.
6:36 am
big challenges for that family. what next? it is difficult to predict. if you lock into a deal now and rates tumble you might kick yourself but equally missing a deal now and tracking as rates go up possibly again it will hurt. send your questions. we're going to be speaking to a mortgage broker a little later. get in touch with us via twitter, email or of course whatsapp, scan the qr code on your screen, the number is on your screen now. tell us who you are and your questions around your mortgage and we will put them to an expert later. looking at interest rates. people used to have rates this high. 2007, they were around 5.5%. october 89, almost 15%. the big difference then, the leak between the 80s and now,
6:37 am
compared to your income, buying a house in the first place is twice as expensive so the weight of the initial borrow is much more and why it is hard to get on the ladder at all. you have a bigger mortgage to pay off. do get in touch with your questions. an exciting afternoon yesterday at edgbaston. john is there. it looks dry at the moment. good morning. it is. good morning. you can probably see very different conditions to what we saw yesterday. with the storms here on day three. but with the sun shining, you can see the ground staff still working just behind me. just trying to draw water out of the surface. we look like we are in line for a full day's
6:38 am
play today. we can get the story so far. the doom and gloom on sunday afternoon. in a 25—minute spell between rainstorms, two english wickets drained away to leave this test in a delicate position. if we could have a day, maybe just over a day to bowl at them, we feel like we can we can bowl them out. if they actually feel like they have a score that they can chase down, then we feel like we're in the game. if they come out and play defensively like they have done so far this game, it might be a different story. england began with a plan. everything in its right place — fielders, ball. alex carey the latest to be entranced byjimmy anderson. all the while, though, australia were advancing and this was starting to hurt england. moeen ali's stinging spinning finger needed treatment. their attack weakened. so ben stokes improvised. he moved his men to unusual places to unsettle usman khawaja. bowled 0llie robinson for a brilliant 141. breakthrough made, the rest of the aussie batting quickly gave way, ending fittingly in the hands of stokes.
6:39 am
england's first innings lead — seven. but as the dark lord left, darker skies arrived. rain delayed the match and left behind it perfect hunting conditions for aussie bowlers. ben duckett gone to a brilliant catch from cameron green. black clouds looming ominously for zak crawley, who edged behind. england 35 runs ahead but two wickets down when the drama moved to the heavens. on sunday, the weather became the central character in this test. on monday, it should be clearer and england will need to score runs knowing that australia have the pressure of batting last. this test remains finely balanced. patrick geary, bbc news at edgbaston. so much hinges on the opening half hour and whetherjoe root can survive the australian onslaught sure to come one day four. away from
6:40 am
things here at edgbaston, we wondered over night whether we might see rory mcilroy get his hands on a fifth major title. his hopes came to an end. such a close finish at the us open, finishing one shot behind american windom clark. wyndham clark at the us open in los angeles. he made a birdie on the first hole but that was the only one of his final round. clark's closing 70 took him to ten—under par. his best finish at a major before this was a tie for 75th place, so this is by far the biggest win of his career. as the build—up to wimbledon continues, it was a great day for british players at the nottingham 0pen, with katie boulter winning a her first title on the wta tour and andy murray making it two trophies in a row. andy swiss has more. as father's day presents go, not a bad one for andy murray, as he followed up last week's success in surbiton with another
6:41 am
morale—boosting triumph. commentator: superb from murray. world number 181 arthur cazaux could only watch and admire. and while tougher tests await, the pre—wimbledon signs are encouraging. umpire: game, set and match, murray. another title, and then a surprise. murray hadn't realised that in the crowd were his four children. hopefully, i'll get back home tonight and see my kids for father's day, get a rest day tomorrow and, yeah, get pumped for queen's and... oh, my god! aw, i didn't know they were here! applause. 0h. i had no idea they were coming. and the home fans soon had even more to cheer. jodie burrage and katie boulter in the first all—british final on the women's tour since 1977. and it was boulter that seized it in straight sets. the biggest title of her career — dedicated to those who had supported her. this one always gets me
6:42 am
a little emotional. my team, my family, you know, who work through the tough moments and the good moments... i'm sorry. applause. but those tears soon turned to smiles. for british tennis, a day of double delight. andy swiss, bbc news. the prospects for british players heading into wimbledon looking good after those results. max verstappen has reached a major formula 1 milestone. victory at the canadian grand prix was his 41st — matching the great ayrton senna. the world champion dominated yet another race, finishing ahead of fernando alonso and lewis hamilton, to extend his lead in the drivers' standings to 69 points. verstappen is only 25 and listen to the names of the drivers ahead of him in the all—time list — alain prost, sebastian vettel, michael schumacher and hamilton. that's the way he's going.
6:43 am
he could overtake at least one more of those this season. spain have won their first international trophy since the euros in 2012, beating croatia to claim the nations league. it was goalless after extra—time, so it went to penalties, and dani carvajal had the winner to edge it 5—4. among the players celebrating were manchester city stars rodri and aymeric laporte, winning theirfourth trophy this season. wigan warriors have won rugby league's challenge cup a record 20 times and they're through to another semi—final. they had a man sent off early on, but they edged past warrington wolves 14—12. abbas miski with their second try. they can now look forward to a meeting with hull kr. leigh will face st helens in the other semi. we can look ahead to the fourth day at edgbaston. we are joined we can look ahead to the fourth day at edgbaston. we arejoined by

they have machines drawing the water to the surface and pumping it the side of the field ahead of play that starts at 11am. i wonder ifjoe root will keep a close eye on it. you know the australians will come at england hard. disappointing for england hard. disappointing for england to lose the wickets yesterday. under dark skies. no such thing today, beautiful sunshine and what a match we have in store. it has been fun under ben stokes. he likes to serve up exciting cricket, which england have done so far. will it end in victory for england? studio: it needs to. thank you. competition is getting under way at the special olympics in berlin this week, where athletes with intellectual disabilities from all over the world will show off their talent.
6:47 am
the event, which is the third member of the olympic family, has a unique spirit and significance, asjoe wilson reports. special olympics. welcome to berlin. welcome to 7,000 competitors, each with an intellectual disability, included and celebrated and dedicated. ellie—bea thomas from northampton is taking part in herfirst special olympics world summer games. gymnastics — it's amazing. i started since around seven years old. just to express any emotion through every single routine. just amazing. at the start of the games, there's a process called divisioning. that's what's going on here. each competitor is assessed for their level of ability, and then they will only compete against others of a similar level. so, in each sport, there will be several events all of a different standard. each event has the same value. we reward people for doing their best. we don't ask the question who is the best? which most people ask. for us, we ask what's your best? and that's a question everybody can answer.
6:48 am
well, centre stage this week, the stadium built for the 1936 olympics — then to express fascist ideology, here are now in berlin, a civic reception for the special olympics' israeli delegation. the past can be a foundation for change. jews were not allowed to compete, to participate in the olympics at the time. not talking about people with disabilities. — all kinds of people. and this is a victory of the spirit, as well, especially here in berlin. that point to you, sir. in 1936, there was one jesse owens. now, in our days, in this olympic games, all of us are jesse owens. everyone's here to win this week, but it's more significant than that. every competitor, every team, everywhere, you're surrounded by the joy of being included. joe wilson, bbc news, berlin.
6:49 am
a brilliant piece. thanks. here's carol. it isa it is a changeable picture. we need to be prepared. you are absolutely right. it is a mixture of sunshine and showers this week. it will feel humid for most. we have seen the torrential rain crossing england and wales yesterday. it is now in scotland with heavy rain in the highlands. behind it, we are looking at sunshine. we started withjohn in edgbaston. that will be the story behind the forecast, sunny spells and showers. the rain lead to issues with flooding as it moved northwards. through the night some heavy rain, thunderstorms and showers. a lot of us starting the day on a dry note with sunshine.
6:50 am
through the day, the rain turns to showers as it moves northwards and westwards. some of the showers could be thundery, especially in northern ireland, and it will feel humid. temperatures in the north, 15. most will have up to 25, 26 in the south—east. overnight, the showers move away. a lot of dry weather, clear skies, fog patches forming. more torrential rain comes in from the south—west affecting the south—west of england, wales, south and west midlands and potentially further east. some of that could be thundery. a sticky night. 11—15 degrees. tomorrow, the rain moves northwards. heavy downpours. showers across north—west scotland are likely to merge through the course of the day. behind the band of rain,
6:51 am
back into that cocktail of sunshine and showers. tomorrow, feeling humid. in the south—east we could see up to 24. wednesday, if you are heading to glastonbury, a mixture of sunshine and showers. you would be unlucky to catch one in glastonbury. some will be slow moving across ireland and scotland. temperatures, 15 in the north, up to 25 towards the south—east. possibly even 26. through wednesday into thursday, high—pressure bills. things settle down. you can see as we head to the weekend, the weather front is trying to come in from the west. what happens during thursday first of all, as high pressure builds, we have the odd shower. most will be dry but it will feel humid. into the weekend, some dry weather around and
6:52 am
showers, but at the moment we could see atlantic fronts coming in across parts of scotland and northern ireland. note the difference in temperature further south, it is to climb. we need the raincoats back out. i had forgotten what the blue looked like. what links sirjohn major, sir tony blair and the former athlete dame mary peters? they're all knights of the garter ? a rare title dating back almost 700 years. the knights will appear today at windsor castle for the ancient order of the garter ceremony, held everyjune. our royal correspondent, daniela relph, has more. it is an exclusive club, one of the highest honours the monarch can give. there are only 24 knights of the garter at any time. over the years, the robes, the plumed caps, the braid have made quite the spectacle at the annual ceremony in windsor.
6:53 am
the current crop includes prime ministers, diplomats and an athlete. commentator: mary peters, great britain. _ mary peters' olympic triumph in munich in 1972 took her to places she couldn't imagine. she was appointed to the order of the garter four years ago for her work in her community, and still can't quite believe it. for me, a humble athlete, it was the most remarkable invitation i've ever had. i started to shake and then i looked up and googled what it was all about. and i've been so honoured and thrilled to represent northern northern ireland as the first woman. but ijust love having the pomp and ceremony and inviting friends to go and enjoy the experience at windsor castle. years of public service within politics in the uk, and as a diplomat globally, got baroness valerie amos her invitation last year.
6:54 am
she is the first black person to be part of the order of the garter, and that matters. i thought immediately of my parents, i have to say. and, you know, we came to this country as immigrants in the 1960s. i thought about them and how proud they would have been had they been around, which always makes me feel very emotional. i mean, to me, its extraordinary that i'm in this position. but its extraordinary and positive for all of the people who come up to me and are really proud of that achievement. and i think about that a lot. today's ceremony takes place here in st george's chapel. one of the perks of being a knight of the garter is your own named seat here — every member of the order gets one. and hanging above are the banners designed to symbolise their family, work and service. the olympic rings are incorporated
6:55 am
into mary peters' banner. as he starts his reign, in the years ahead, the king will make his personal selections to the order of the garter. his own choices on the people he believes have made a significant contribution to public life. i think it will tell us a lot about charles's personality, where he sees britain's place in the world. and his selections aren't so much the old aristocracy. they are people from regular backgrounds who have served in ordinaryjobs, excelled in their roles and really shown themselves to really serve the country and its people, but also represent britain on a global stage. all of these ancient ceremonies and rituals can feel removed from modern monarchy, but they are about recognition. and who charles iii invites here in the years to come will give us a sense of the kind of king he wants to be. daniela ralph, bbc news,

st george's chapel, windsor. that is a very exclusive club. a lot of feathers. you're watching breakfast. still to come. football legend graeme souness has completed a relay swim of the channel — all inspired by a young girl named isla who has a rare skin condition. we'll catch up with them both in around 20 minutes. very special. time for the news, travel and weather where you are. welcome to bbc london. i'm thomas magill. shoplifting across the capital has risen by more than 20% in the last year, with some london businesses now using private security firms
6:57 am
because they say the met�*s response to incidents isn t good enough. the firms are mostly there to act as a deterrent but they can also make a citizens arrest if necessary. around 400 shops in clapham junction? have recently started to pay for special patrols to help tackle the problem. before the pandemic, we had regular policemen, who were always the same people. you'd spot them and they were regularly around the area. post—pandemic, they literally disappeared overnight. the met says it's not a new development for businesses to employ private security firms and it works closely with them. hundreds of firefighers in london are to be screened for cancer as part of a national health monitoring project. recently evidence has shown cancer among uk firefighters in their late 30's is over 300% higher than in the general population of the same age. the testing will look to identify evidence linking occupational cancers with exposure to toxic fire chemicals.
6:58 am
homeless charities have written to the prime miniser raising concerns about his target to end rough sleeping in england by 2024. the government's ending rough sleeping for good strategy set a target to end rough sleeping by the end of this parliament. but figures for the capital showed that between january and march there'd been an increase of 14% in the number of people on the streets compared to the same period last year. the government says it remains "absolutely committed to ending rough sleeping." let's see now how the tube is looking at this time of the morning. there's minor delays between northfields and heathrow terminals on the piccadilly line. it was a mixed bag of weather over the weekend. what's in store for us today and into the week? kate can tell us wuth the weather forcast. good morning. it's a warm and humid start to the new week. one or two mist and fog patches around, but some sunny spells today, some well—scattered showers. the showers, if you get one, you might get a rumble of thunder,
6:59 am
but not everywhere will. the showers will fade into the evening, so dry by the end of today. temperatures reaching 24 celsius. overnight tonight, it stays largely dry. clear to start with, but, again, might see a little bit of patchy cloud and mist and fog forming. minimum temperature between 12 and 15c. another warm night. you can see this rain just edging in as we head into tuesday morning. this system will gradually move towards us. bit of a question mark on to how far east it travels, but the potential is there for some heavy rain. it moves away northwards through the afternoon, showers to follow, but still some sunny spells by the end of tuesday and temperatures tomorrow around 23c. as we head through the rest of this week, showers always around, but some decent spells of sunshine and temperatures potentially getting a little warmer into next weekend. more on the bbc news app and on bbc radio london throughout the morning. i'll be back in half an hour, but now let's cross
7:00 am
back tojohn and sally. good morning. here are the headlines: mps prepared to have their say on borisjohnson. they will debate the report that found he misled parliament over lockdown parties. nine men are due in court in greece over the sinking of a trawler last week carrying hundreds of migrants. heavy rain and thunderstorms have been bringing flooding and disruption to some parts of the uk overnight. we will have the latest on conditions. goad have the latest on conditions. good mornin: have the latest on conditions. good morning from _ have the latest on conditions. good morning from edgbaston _ have the latest on conditions.

7:02 am
week after seeing the report's conclusions in advance. it is unsure whether senior conservatives will attend today. they say there's no such thing as bad publicity. although he's no longer an mp, borisjohnson still has a way of dominating the headlines. today, mps will give their views on the reports by a cross—party committee of politicians, which found that the former prime minister lied on multiple occasions to parliament about partygate. the report said borisjohnson misled the house on an issue of the greatest importance and did so repeatedly. if borisjohnson had still been an mp, the committee would have recommended that he was suspended for three months and are calling for him to lose his parliamentary pass. this cabinet minister says he'll neither vote for nor against the report because he feels the proposed punishment is too harsh. i think that the final conclusion, the decision to impose a 90—day penalty is not merited by the evidence that the committee has put forward.
7:03 am
so will you vote for the report or not? i will not vote, i will abstain. borisjohnson called the report's conclusions deranged and the committee itself a kangaroo court. so you can expect some of his supporters to be jumping to his defence in today's debate. it's not clear, having aired their views, whether mps will simply nod the report through or whether there will be a recorded vote. if so, that could be tricky for rishi sunak. if he votes for the report, he'll upset pro—johnson activists, if he votes against, the opposition will say he lacks integrity. if he doesn't turn up to vote at all, they'll accuse him of being weak. with four by elections looming, rishi sunak is keen to move on from partygate, but this video shows just how difficult that will be. this is conservative party headquarters in december 2020, when socialising between different households was banned. the attendees were working on the london mayoral campaign and not for boris johnson. but the danger for rishi sunak is that events like these tarnish his party's brand and the political damage goes beyond the reputation
7:04 am
of a previous prime minister. iain watson, bbc news. let's go live to westminster. nick adley is college green. all eyes on the house of commons to see what happens with the vote. it sounds like it could be a bit of a nonevent in the end. like it could be a bit of a nonevent in the end-— in the end. parliament is going to back a pretty _ in the end. parliament is going to back a pretty significant - in the end. parliament is going to| back a pretty significant reprimand of borisjohnson. we talked about it on thursday, the unprecedented 90 day suspension the committee wanted, the fact boris johnson day suspension the committee wanted, the fact borisjohnson will be stripped of his passable parliament. that seems inevitable, it will happen. it is a question of how. it is possible there is not a formal boat later, there is a debate when
7:05 am
mps get to say either they think the committee has come up with the right findings or the allies of boris johnson, they think they have got it wrong. there might not be the formal vote. if that does not happen i expect the government to be mightily relieved. you heard michael gove saying he would abstain, he would not record a formal vote on it. a lot of government ministers have been desperate not to answer any detailed questions about this. rishi sunak was out this morning and asked repeatedly what he was going to do on a boat later. he said each individual mole tick—macro will make up individual mole tick—macro will make up their minds. it is a matterfor parliament rather than the government. awkward for rishi sunak because he does not want to be seen as taking the anti—all the pro—boris johnson sighed. standing back from
7:06 am
it all, the man who was prime minister this time last year is about to get a really significant reprimand from the house of commons, one that makes an idea of the political comeback for borisjohnson political comeback for boris johnson pretty hard to political comeback for borisjohnson pretty hard to imagine. we are going to speak to sir keir starmer about that in a few minutes' time. former prime minister david cameron is set to give evidence to the covid inquiry later today. the first stage of the inquiry is scrutinising preparations for a pandemic before 2020 when the virus struck, whether the uk was ready, and decisions made by government in response to the outbreak. nine men will appear in court in southern greece today in connection with the sinking of a trawler last week, carrying hundreds of migrants. 78 people are confirmed to have died in the tragedy and the bbc has obtained evidence which casts doubt on the greek coastguard's account of what happened. our europe correspondent nick beake, has this report.
7:07 am
the greek authorities have faced heavy criticism over their response to this disaster. their argument has always been that the boat was moving in a steady direction towards italy, that it wasn't in danger, and so the people on board did not need to be rescued. now, we've been looking at shipping data, looking at the boats that were in this part of the mediterranean sea on the day of the tragedy. we also looked at court records, logbooks, photographs and video. we've built up a picture which seriously challenges the official greek version of events. last tuesday morning, from the air, authorities spot the migrant boat. this is a surveillance photo. a simulation we've obtained from a ship—tracking service shows civilian boats in the area in the run—up to the sinking. coastguard and military vessels do not appear. the migrant boat didn't have a tracker, but the yellow pin shows where it eventually goes down. at around 1500 gmt, a ship called the lucky sailor, which gave us its logbook,
7:08 am
turned sharply and is asked by the coastguard to supply food and water to the migrant boat. soon after, says the coastguard, its helicopter finds the boat to be on a steady course. but two and a half hours later, at around 6pm, another vessel, the faithful warrior, comes to the same area and is also requested to supply food to the boat. bbc verify has confirmed this is footage of it happening. from 7:40pm until 10:40pm, greek officials, from a discreet distance, see the boat keeping a steady course and speed, according to their initial statement. but they later published this close—up image, taken in the same time period, which shows no waves around the migrant boat, suggesting it's hardly moving. and let's look again at the activity of the last seven hours. it's all around one specific spot, indicating the migrant boat has barely changed position. remember, all this time, greece says the vessel is not in trouble and is safely on its way to italy,
7:09 am
and so no rescue is needed. it is at 11pm that the boat sinks with hundreds on board. and there is a frenzy of ships coming to help. including the celebrity beyond, from where this footage was taken and later sent to the bbc. a luxury yacht, the mayan queen, is then instructed to assist, and takes the survivors to shore. they reach safety at the port of kalamata, but leave behind serious questions about the whole greek response. the united nations has already called for an investigation into what happened, and it's reminding countries about their legal and moral obligation, they say, to intervene if they see people in danger. a number of european countries in recent years have pursued a tougher policy when it comes to migration, and in particular when it comes to dealing with migrant boats. in terms of our investigation, the greek authorities are yet to respond, but it's clear that this does raise fresh questions about theirjudgment
7:10 am
and what really happened. that was our europe correspondent, nick beake, who worked alongside colleagues at bbc verify, a team of fact—checking investigative journalists. the home secretary has called on police leaders to ramp up their use of stop and search powers as a way of tackling violent crime. in a letter to chief constables, suella braverman said officers who used the measures had herfull support. critics say it disproportionately targets black and ethnic minority communities. one of the most severe marine heatwaves on earth has developed off the coast of the uk and ireland, according to data from the european space agency. the data was analysed by scientists in the us, who said sea temperatures in some
7:11 am
areas are four degrees celsius above the average for this time of year. the met office is warning there could be more flash flooding this week as a result of fast changing weather. thunderstorms at the weekend with hale and strong wins which hit parts of the uk. our correspondent has more. after a week of sunny and warm weather, sunday saw a significant change. thunderstorms across the uk triggered flooding after nearly half a month's worth of rain in some areas delis are some areas. in sheffield driver had to be rescued from her car after it became stuck in rising waters. there was disruption up rotherham general hospital. some nonemergency ambulances had to be transferred elsewhere. in wales, father's day
7:12 am
lunches at wrexham afc's ground had to be abandoned after there were structural damage in a stand which caused an evacuation. wales police said it received numerous calls with some roads left impassable. at edge were simply had to be halted in the first ashes test due to the wet weather. drivers and, also struggled with the conditions. is there more of that to come? morning. look at the map! in morning. look at the map! in scotland we have cloud, rain morning. look at the map! in scotland we have cloud, rain bearing clouds and torrential downpours to come. there are some blue skies around but this is the heavy rain moving north across scotland. it
7:13 am

7:14 am
this morning as he prepares to announce details of his party's plans for energy. he speaks to us from edinburgh. you'll critics say this promise of green energy for the uk by 2030 is just not plausible, not without causing a lot of pain the taxpayers and consumers. how much pain can viewers expect? this and consumers. how much pain can viewers “poet?— and consumers. how much pain can viewers expect? this is about making sure our viewers expect? this is about making sure your viewers _ viewers expect? this is about making sure your viewers don't _ viewers expect? this is about making sure your viewers don't feel- viewers expect? this is about making sure your viewers don't feel any - sure your viewers don't feel any more pain. at the moment most viewers would say i am feeling a lot of pain when it comes to energy bills. our plan today is driven by three things above all else, one to get energy bills down and get them down on a permanent basis, notjust from month to month. secondly to make sure we have energy security. we are too reliant on the
7:15 am
international market and that means tyrants like putin can influence our energy prices and we need to stop that with clean power by 2030. the whole world knows the feature is about renewables, clean power and racing ahead in the race for the next generation ofjobs. we need to be in the race and winning the race. i think we can be. 2034 clean power, i think we can be. 2034 clean power, i accept that is a hard target. centrica has been clear whilst it is hard, it is doable, it knows what it is talking about, it is a major supplier of gas across the whole country. is it? yes. is the prize worth having? lower bills, energy security in the next generation of jobs. there strategic government, purpose led government, which is what we will get if we have a labour government, i think we can see that prize. i hope that means in generations to come, people look

back and say that is the turning point, as a country we put to one side the we cannot do attitude, which is where we are at the moment and go towards the challenge and win the race. irlat and go towards the challenge and win the race. ., ., ., ., i. i. the race. not long ago you said you would block — the race. not long ago you said you would block all _ the race. not long ago you said you would block all new _ the race. not long ago you said you would block all new developments l the race. not long ago you said you | would block all new developments of oil and gas in the north sea. now it looks like you have rowed back on that somewhat, is it another labour u—turn? tliliii that somewhat, is it another labour u-turn? ., , that somewhat, is it another labour u-turn? . , , ,., that somewhat, is it another labour u-turn? . , , ., u-turn? oil gas will be part of the ener: u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix _ u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix for _ u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix for decades _ u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix for decades but - u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix for decades but it - u-turn? oil gas will be part of the energy mix for decades but it is i energy mix for decades but it is dwindling and we had to have a plan for what comes next, that comes up alongside that. one of the big mistakes that was made decades ago was when we knew that coal mining was when we knew that coal mining was coming to an end we didn't have a government with the courage to plan for what happened next. i am not prepared to sit back, wait until we get to that point and realise we do not have a plan. we had to plan
7:17 am
for it. oil and gas will be part of the mix as we go forward. the prize, the mix as we go forward. the prize, the opportunity is the renewables. if we look at what is happening in america there is a huge drive for clean power. everyone knows that is where the future generation ofjobs lies. america is going for it, european partners and neighbours are going for it. at the moment our government is sitting out. that means we pay higher prices than other countries. no good in ordinary circumstances. in the middle of a cost of living crisis it is unforgivable to sit this out. we will go towards that.— unforgivable to sit this out. we will go towards that. 200,000 “obs in the uk rely fl will go towards that. 200,000 “obs in the uk rely on i will go towards that. 200,000 “obs in the uk rely on the industry. h in the uk rely on the industry. 90,000 in scotland. the unite union saying your plans are vague and really worrying to people who work in that industry. has really worrying to people who work in that industry. $5 i really worrying to people who work in that industry.— in that industry. as i say, oil and as will in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be _ in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be part _ in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be part of— in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be part of the _ in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be part of the mix - in that industry. as i say, oil and gas will be part of the mix for i in that industry. as i say, oil and i gas will be part of the mix for many years to come. in the clean power

initiative, there are 200,000 jobs directly and play and 280,000 indirectly in play. there are half a millionjobs to be indirectly in play. there are half a million jobs to be won if we ran towards this challenge. we can use the skills we have got in the places we have got. offshore includes oil and gas and wind turbine as well. you can use the skills and harness the skills. we have innovation. in scotland we are talking about 50,000 new jobs. scotland we are talking about 50,000 newjobs. a plan to keep prices down on a permanent basis, gives us that security. what has happened i think is there for everyone to see. you have a tyrant like putin who is trying to put his boot on our threads. we want to get that off and have our independence so we produce our own power and at the same time sees thejobs of our own power and at the same time sees the jobs of the future. that is why i accept this is a tough
7:19 am
challenge but it is doable. centrica knows what they are talking about. they say it is tough but doable. i want that. for too long over the last ten years or so we have been in this decline is not accepting we are up this decline is not accepting we are up for the challenge. an incoming labour government is up for the challenge and wants to run towards it, delivering lower bills and energy security for their next generation ofjobs. that is a prize worth having. generation of “obs. that is a prize worth having.— worth having. willie back in the house of commons _ worth having. willie back in the house of commons chamber. worth having. willie back in the house of commons chamber to j worth having. willie back in the i house of commons chamber to take part in a privilege committee report into borisjohnson? i part in a privilege committee report into boris johnson?— into boris johnson? i hope so. i will do my _ into boris johnson? i hope so. i will do my speech _ into boris johnson? i hope so. i will do my speech and - into boris johnson? i hope so. i will do my speech and then i into boris johnson? i hope so. i will do my speech and then do. into boris johnson? i hope so. i i will do my speech and then do some media and then straight on the train back to westminster where i hope to be there for the debate and the vote. i hope the prime minister is there as well. when the country is crying out for answers on cost of living and energy bills, the idea

that government is having to have a debate about the behaviour of the former prime minister tells you everything that is wrong with the tory party at the moment when they are obsessed with themselves, fighting amongst themselves and talking about their bad behaviour. instead of running the country. i want to see the prime minister there when i arrived back in parliament. he has to show leadership. what his predecessor got up to was unacceptable. the prime minister has to lead, going into parliament and vote in the debate to show where he stands on this issue. i vote in the debate to show where he stands on this issue.— stands on this issue. i can tell you are looking _ stands on this issue. i can tell you are looking forward _ stands on this issue. i can tell you are looking forward to _ stands on this issue. i can tell you are looking forward to the - stands on this issue. i can tell you j are looking forward to the debate. stands on this issue. i can tell you l are looking forward to the debate. i want to talk about the video that was leaked at the weekend. let me ask about the video that was leaked at the weekend. should the people we see in that video linked to one of the newspapers at the weekend, should they face an inquiry? we are showing images now. should they face

you and others have to put to me allegations of misbehaviour by the tory party. every time that is what is bugging us down in this country. we cannot go on with this chaos, we really can't. most everything is broken and most people when they ask themselves, am i better off now than i was 13 years ago when the government came in? most people watching this now will say, i am not and it is time for change. i watching this now will say, i am not and it is time for change.— and it is time for change. i don't know whether _ and it is time for change. i don't know whether you _ and it is time for change. i don't know whether you have - and it is time for change. i don't know whether you have seen i and it is time for change. i don't| know whether you have seen the pictures we have been playing of graeme souness, scotland football legend, swimming the channel 4 charity to raise awareness of eb, the skin condition. what do you think of what he has done? i think he is remarkable. _ think of what he has done? i think he is remarkable. i _ think of what he has done? i think he is remarkable. i did _ think of what he has done? i think he is remarkable. i did see - think of what he has done? i think he is remarkable. i did see some. think of what he has done? i think. he is remarkable. i did see some of the footage you are showing earlier. it is quite moving, particularly more that is exposed about the skin condition. for him to take that on

7:24 am
over the last three decades, we've had year—on—year increases in antidepressant prescribing, in all western countries as far as it's been looked at. and it means now millions of people are taking antidepressants long term, and it's the longer term prescribing that's driving the increase. figures obtained by panorama show more than 2 million people, a quarter of all those taking an antidepressant in england, have been taking them for five years or more. it's very likely that one of the reasons that we're seeing people on antidepressants for longer and longer is because they're being trapped on the drugs by withdrawal effects they can't tolerate. dr marc horowitz was prescribed antidepressants at the age of 21. when he stopped, 15 years later, the withdrawal effects took him by surprise. i would wake up in the morning in full panic, like i was being chased by an animal,
7:25 am
like, on the edge of a cliff. and that panic wouldn't abate for hours — until the late evening. i took up running —10kms a day. i ran until my feet bled because it gave me a slight reprieve from that panic sensation. antidepressants remain an important treatment option for adults experiencing more severe depression. they're also used to treat other mental health conditions. i've seen throughout my long and extensive career, i have seen people benefit from antidepressants and i see lives being saved by them. but withdrawal can be severe for a significant minority of patients. yet for decades, doctors had told their patients withdrawal symptoms would be mostly mild and short lived. that position only changed in 2019 when guidance was updated to say withdrawal could be severe and longer lasting for some.
7:26 am
patients struggling to stop are now advised to slowly reduce their dose over months or longer. the manufacturers of the uk's most widely—used antidepressants say their drugs are safe and effective and their benefits are considered to outweigh their risks. people are staying on antidepressants for longer and longer, and we don't really have long—term studies that support that. and the drugs do have side effects. you shouldn'tjust stay on them without ever thinking about coming off them. doctors are now advised that people with less severe depression should not be offered an antidepressant unless it's the patient�*s preference. we now think, can we teach students and trainees to hold off on prescribing antidepressants, if possible? for mild depression, most people get better whatever you do over a few months, so if you can hold off, then you don't start people on antidepressants and then they're not going to get problems further down the line
7:27 am
trying to come off them. but the number of prescriptions is still rising. patients, who have concerns about their medication, should seek medical advice. i would suggest that anyone who's on an antidepressant should have their treatment reviewed every six months. you must never stop an antidepressant without discussing it with your doctor. whilst awareness and acceptance of antidepressant withdrawal has grown in recent years, dr marc horowitz and others who've struggled with withdrawal say there still aren't enough services offering support. rachel schraer, bbc news. and you can watch panorama's report — the antidepressant story — on bbc one at 8 o'clock tonight. it will also be available on iplayer. you're watching breakfast. still to come this morning... he's the hi—viz clown, whose antics won him britain's got talent. if we'll be chatting with norwegian comic viggo venn in around half an hour.

7:29 am
to help tackle the problem. i understand that there are probably bigger crimes happening elsewhere and the met is stretched, etc. however, you would like to have some sort of a response to have somebody held accountable for the loss that you've had. the met says its not a new development for businesses to employ private security firms and it works closely with them. hundreds of firefighers in london are to be screened for cancer as part of a national health monitoring project. recently evidence has shown cancer among uk firefighters in their late 30s is over 300% higher than in the general population of the same age. the testing will look to identify evidence linking occupational cancers with exposure to toxic fire chemicals. homeless charities have written to the prime minister raising concerns about his target to end rough sleeping in england by 2024. the government's ending rough sleeping for good strategy set a target to end rough sleeping by the end of this parliament.
7:30 am
but figures for the capital show that between january and march there'd been an increase of 14% in the number of people compared to the same period last year. the government says it remains absolutely committed to ending rough sleeping". let's see now how the tube is looking at this time of the morning. there's minor delays on the piccidilly line and metropolitan lines. otherwise a good service on rest of the network. it was a mixed bag of weather over the weekend. what's in store for us today and into the week? kate can tell us wuth the weather forcast. the weather forecast. good morning. it's a warm and humid start to the new week. one or two mist and fog patches around, but some sunny spells today, some well—scattered showers. the showers, if you get one, you might get a rumble of thunder, but not everywhere will. the showers will fade into the evening, so dry by the end of today. temperatures reaching 24 celsius. overnight tonight, it stays largely dry. clear to start with, but, again, might see a little bit of patchy cloud and mist and fog forming. minimum temperature between 12 and 15c.
7:31 am
another warm night. you can see this rain just edging in as we head into tuesday morning. this system will gradually move towards us. bit of a question mark on to how far east it travels, but the potential is there for some heavy rain. it moves away northwards through the afternoon, showers to follow, but still some sunny spells by the end of tuesday and temperatures tomorrow around 23c. as we head through the rest of this week, showers always around, but some decent spells of sunshine and temperatures potentially getting a little warmer into next weekend. still mixed weather. more on the bbc news app and on bbc radio london throughout the morning. that's it from me. i'll be back in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent.

good morning. the inquiry into the government handling of covid is entering its second week. with former prime minister david cameron due to give evidence. paige taylor is a member of the covid bereaved families justice group. her mum, christine, died after contracting covid in hospital. she joins us now from westminster. let's start by talking about your mum christine.— let's start by talking about your mum christine. . . ., , , ., mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite — mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite ill _ mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite ill for _ mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite ill for most _ mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite ill for most of _ mum christine. what happened to her? she was quite ill for most of my - she was quite ill for most of my life. i was her carerfrom she was quite ill for most of my life. i was her carer from the age of 12. she seemed to always get better. she would go into hospital a lot but we always knew she was coming out. it was only when the lockdown started she became more isolated because she could not go
7:33 am
out. then she started to become more unwell. then, unfortunately, she went into hospital for a separate reason and contracted covid in hospital. and then, unfortunately, she passed away soon after that. in that time, when she was in hospital, how much contact had you been allowed to have with her? what was life like for the two of view? i was workint life like for the two of view? i was working in — life like for the two of view? i was working in manchester _ life like for the two of view? i was working in manchester at - life like for the two of view? i was working in manchester at the i life like for the two of view? i —" working in manchester at the time and could not visit the hospital is anyway. i had one call from a consultant to let me know what was happening with her. luckily, i was able to see her four days before she passed. but that was a very short time, 45 minutes. it was really hard because i did not know that would be the last time i would see her. only four days later, i was given a call

who lost loved ones in the pandemic, at the end of this inquiry. what would give you a sense ofjustice? to have a feeling ofjustice, i think it would be to have transparency. the government to be transparent and hold up their hands and say we are sorry, we did things wrong. and we are going to make sure this never happens in the future. i think that will be the only sense of justice. we will never get our loved ones back but we need answers. we need answers as to why these things happened and why the most vulnerable were sacrificed. and why the government thought it was ok for them to not go by the rules they set for us. ., ., them to not go by the rules they set for us. ., ~' ,, them to not go by the rules they set for us. ., ,, i. . ., for us. thank you so much for talkint for us. thank you so much for talking to _ for us. thank you so much for talking to us. _

7:39 am
australian attack this morning. 28—2, a lead of 35 for england. you wonder ifjoe root can content with everything australia will throw at them because they will have their tails up with two wickets they took under leaden skies yesterday before rain curtailed things. we can bring you up—to—date. it started well yesterday, as australia were bowled out for 386, giving england a first innings lead of seven. but in tricky conditions, they first lost ben duckett to a brilliant catch by cameron green and just moments later, his fellow opener zak crawley edged behind, so england closing on 28 for 2 before rain brought an early end to play. they will want to build on that lead to give the bowlers a chance to go at australia. you wonder what ben stokes will do after the early declaration. he wants to push for a result in this series. we will be
7:40 am
talking more about what we can expect today but let's turn attentions to other big sports stories. and what a finish to the us open golf overnight. rory mcilroy was in the heart of this. but the tournament was won by wyndham clark said it felt won by wyndham clark said it felt like it was his time, after winning the us open — his first major title. he finished a shot ahead of rory mcilroy, whose long wait for a fifth major title goes on. they both closed with rounds of 70 in los angeles, leaving clark ten under—par — his best finish at a major before this was a tie for 75th place. he wanted to dedicate the winter his late mother, who died of breast cancer in 2013. she would be crying tears ofjoy. she would be crying tears ofjoy. she called me winner when i was little and she would say i love you,
7:41 am
winner. obviously she had that mantra of play big. i was a mother's boy. there would be a lot of hugging and crying together. i know she would be very proud of me. what a special moment. rory mcilroy is edging closer and we have the open around the corner, potentially to look out for, rory mcilroy, his performances continue to be impressive. you feel it will not be long before he gets his hands on the fifth major title. as the build—up to wimbledon continues, british players in great form. at the nottingham open, katie boulter winning a herfirst title on the wta tour and andy murray making it
7:42 am
two trophies in a row. you wonder what he might muster with wimbledon around the corner. it was a special day for him in more ways than one. as father's day presents go, not a bad one for andy murray, as he followed up last week's success in surbiton with another morale—boosting triumph. commentator: superb from murray. world number 181 arthur cazaux could only watch and admire. and while tougher tests await, the pre—wimbledon signs are encouraging. umpire: game, set and match, murray. another title, and then a surprise. murray hadn't realised that in the crowd were his four children. hopefully, i'll get back home tonight and see my kids for father's day, get a rest day tomorrow and, yeah, get pumped for queen's and... oh, my god! aw, i didn't know they were here! applause. oh. i had no idea they were coming. and the home fans soon had even more to cheer.
7:43 am
jodie burrage and katie boulter in the first all—british final on the women's tour since 1977. and it was boulter that seized it in straight sets. the biggest title of her career — dedicated to those who had supported her. this one always gets me a little emotional. my team, my family, you know, who work through the tough moments and the good moments... i'm sorry. applause. but those tears soon turned to smiles. for british tennis, a day of double delight. andy swiss, bbc news. andy murray and katie boulter in good shape heading into wimbledon. max verstappen has reached a major formula 1 milestone. victory at the canadian grand prix was his 41st— matching the great ayrton senna. the world champion dominated yet another race, finishing ahead of fernando alonso and lewis hamilton,
7:44 am
to extend his lead in the drivers' standings to 69 points. verstappen is only 25 and listen to the names of the drivers ahead of him in the all—time list — alain prost, sebastian vettel, michael schumacher and hamilton. that's the way he's going. he could overtake at least one more of those this season. play is set to begin here at 11 o'clock. ben stokes, as he likes to play the game now, will push for victory that would set up england superbly in this five test ashes series. it is exciting. the brand of cricket that entertains. i do not know which team ben stokes supports, but the way he reinvents the game, certainly with the funky positions yesterday, he is like the pep guardiola of cricket. studio: that is a comparison. thank
7:45 am
you very much. is he like pep guardiola? that is a very big thought at this time of the morning. and there is another thought they will have at edgbaston. the weather. room of more rain today, carol? certainly showers in the area and edgbaston could catch one which would interrup play, but equally dry conditions and sunshine. bear that in mind. look at the cloud in perth. we have watched rain moving northwards overnight and this morning. you can see it has been heavy moving north. still thundery in places with showers following behind. most of us starting on a dry and sunny note. and the forecast is one of sunshine and scattered showers. as rain moves north, into the afternoon, it will turn to showers. there we have sunshine and
7:46 am
showers. there we have sunshine and showers. not everyone will catch one. you might catch one at queens and at edgbaston and if you catch one in northern ireland, they are likely to be thundery. these are the temperatures. widely 21—26 and feeling humid. overnight, the showers move away. a lot of dry weather, clear skies, fog patches forming. and the next batch of torrential rain in the south—west, wales, midlands, and possibly further east. do not be surprised if you hear thunderfrom it will further east. do not be surprised if you hear thunder from it will be humid with overnight lows 11—15. tomorrow, rain moves northwards and eastwards. ahead of it, showers across north—west scotland. some of those will merge. behind it, we could see sunshine but also showers, some of which could be thundery.
7:47 am
temperatures, 16—24, 25 in the south—east. into wednesday, a mixture of sunshine and showers. you might catch a shower in the afternoon if you are heading to glastonbury. slow moving across northern ireland and scotland. some of those will be thundery. and thundery in some of them in england and wales. 15—25. feeling fresher in the far north—east. from wednesday into thursday, the high pressure will be building across us, but we have weather fronts trying to come in through northern ireland and scotland on friday. on thursday, as high pressure builds, we could see a shower. most will be dry, it will be humid. friday and the weekend, again, a lot of dry weather, some
7:48 am
showers. at the moment, it looks like we could see fronts coming in across scotland and northern ireland introducing rain. temperatures starting to climb. by saturday, we could potentially see 28 degrees in london, if not higher. we have guests coming in later who are going to glastonbury. you said it would dry out in somerset? absolutely. the chance of a shower on wednesday, but after that, looking dry and getting warmer. but pollen levels will be high. you give with one hand and take with the other! you know it is not her fault! the royal mint is unveiling a new 50p coin marking 75 years since the arrival of the empire windrush, one of the first ships to bring large groups of west indian immigrants to britain after the second world war.
7:49 am
the coin depicts people from the windrush generation against the backdrop of the union flag. these are the first pictures of the new 50 pence piece which pays tribute to the many british caribbean and commonwealth citizens who arrived in the uk on board the empire windrush between 1948 and 1973. newsreel: arrivals at tilbury. the empire windrush brings to britain 500 jamaicans. i many are ex—servicemen who know england. i they served this country well. injamaica, they. couldn't find work. discouraged but full of hope, they sailed for britain. - citizens of the british empire coming to the mother- country with good intent. thousands came to help rebuild the country following world war ii. it was multi—disciplinary artist, bristol—based valda jackson who was chosen to design the windrush 75th anniversary coin. she arrived in the uk from jamaica at the age of five. it's quite an honour, really,
7:50 am
and a privilege to be given the opportunity to represent us and the generation before us in this way is...is quite a big deal. valda started work on the image almost two years ago, and spent months perfecting it. i want them to be obviously representing the group — the windrush group — the people who are most likely to suffer from prejudicial behaviour. once valda had finished her artwork, it was sent to the royal mint, who used specialist 3d software to turn the paper drawing into a coin. there's privy council meetings — obviously we released quite — obviously we release quite a lot of coins a year, and each coin has to go through this rigorous process. there's not a single uk coin that doesn't go through the rigorous process
7:51 am
i tell you about today. so there are meetings several times a year with his majesty the king and the legal entities around him, where they sign off on these coins. he personally signs off to say he is happy for this to appear on his coinage. we've been given rare access here at the royal mint, where the coins are actually pressed. now, in terms of that silver coin, there are only 1,948 of them in existence — because that number marks the year of the first voyage of the empire windrush back in 1948. there are three coins available, all of which go on sale today ahead of thursday's official windrush day. two are limited edition collectibles in gold and silver. the third is a commemorative coin. greg mckenzie, bbc news. if you have not quite woken up yet,

8:03 am
mps will debate a report later finding borisjohnson repeatedly misled parliament about lockdown parties in downing street. mr johnson resigned as an mp after seeing the report's conclusions in advance. it is unclear whether rishi sunak or other senior conservatives will attend the debate. nick, what will happen in the commons today? will there be a vote? who will turn up and take part? what who will turn up and take part? what will ha en who will turn up and take part? what will happen is — who will turn up and take part? what will happen is this _ who will turn up and take part? “wast will happen is this afternoon who will turn up and take part? wusgt will happen is this afternoon there will happen is this afternoon there will be a debate on the damning report on borisjohnson. i am not certain whether there will be a vote. although some conservatives have said they think the privileges committee went too far in saying borisjohnson should have been chucked out of parliament for 90 days, they are not going to
8:04 am
necessarily force a vote. ijust wonder if some of the opposition parties might try to engineer a vote, basically forcing a vote to try to expose some of the splits in the conservatives over the future of borisjohnson. the reason that matters is there are some tories saying boris johnson matters is there are some tories saying borisjohnson has had his time, he went too far, he got it wrong and it is right he should have been thrown out of parliament. others think this report went far too far. the idea of the 90 day suspension a committee was talking about was vindictive. where does this all leave the prime minister? very noncommittal, as we heard this morning. very noncommittal, as we heard this morninu. , , . . very noncommittal, as we heard this morninu. , , ., ., ., morning. this is a matter for the house, morning. this is a matter for the house. not _ morning. this is a matter for the house. not a _ morning. this is a matter for the house, not a government - morning. this is a matter for the | house, not a government matter. morning. this is a matter for the - house, not a government matter. the committee — house, not a government matter. the committee was set up under the committee was setup under the former_ committee was set up under the former prime minister it has done its work_ former prime minister it has done its work and i respect them for that

8:09 am
who used the measures had herfull support. stop and search has long been a controversial policy. and this is not the first time suella braverman has called for it to be used more. in her letter to the police chiefs of all a3 forces in england and wales, the home secretary says carrying weapons is a scourge on our society. she calls it a dangerous culture that has to stop and says the police have herfull support to ramp up the use of stop and search. there is a danger, if you push stop and search as a tactic, without having an understanding what the operational elements are to it, the effectiveness, the challenges that are in the community. remember, trust in the police has never been lower in the history of the police, so there is a potential it would have disproportionate impact on black and asian people. but in her letter, suella braverman says black communities are also disproportionately affected as victims of knife crime. she says police must do whatever is necessary to prevent violence
8:10 am
and save more lives. campaign groups, though, say stop and searches the wrong way to go about it. we all want our young people to feel safe in their communities and live free from violence and harm, but the home secretary's proposals to ramp up stop and search is simply not how we get there. for starters, stop and search is a really blunt tool. young black boys who are disproportionately targeted by these tactics report the immense pain and trauma it inflicts on them emotionally and mentally. but suella braverman insists her first priority is to keep the public safe and says people who insist on carrying a weapon must know there will be consequences. john donnison, bbc news. one of the most severe marine heatwaves on earth is developed of the post of the uk and ireland. this

they've planned it for a year, they've trained for it for nine months, so now they have to do it. graeme souness and five other swimmers are about to attempt a non—stop relay swim across the english channel. their calling, their mission, their inspiration are people like ia—year—old isla, who has the rare genetic disorder, epidermolysis bullosa, eb. isla was in dover to see them off. her mum, rachel, by her side, her sister, emily, on the phone from america and her dad andy on the boat as part of the swim team. how are we feeling? ready. really? really ready. nervous? not in the slightest. a final good luck call before the channel crossing started. how are you? good. very good. so what are you doing — just watching a bit of tv? yeah. for the first swimmer, sean,
8:17 am
one of three former royal marines in the team, a busman's holiday as he swam from the support boat to a beach near dover. siren wails then hooter. well, that hooter meant the challenge had started. changeover. after sean and andy, came graeme's turn to swim for an hour. among cargo ships and ferries, with only the light of the support boat to guide him. that was tough. well done. greatjob. each swimmer entered the water after precisely 60 minutes. isla's dad was up next. i'm quite emotional, to be honest. yeah, i'll bet. yeah. people have gone before us with eb and brought this thought. you hear the phrase, "standing on the shoulders of giants."
8:18 am
people with eb aren't giants physically but mentally and courage—wise, they are giants. to do something to help them and those that have passed is just, you know, carry on the fight. next in, husband and wife team rob and steph, whose swim heralded a new day. as the team donned cold and damp wetsuits for their second leg, the english coast disappeared and the french coast appeared. tired, deprived of sleep, the end was in sight, but still almost six hours away. if the first swim was disorientating, the second was emotional. there was time to think. um... yeah, you think a lot. what do you think about?
8:19 am
the obvious thing. a few things going through my head. strangely, how lucky i am to have isla in my family and be part of the eb community and meet these guys. it's fantastic. the best time of the last 15 years for me, and... yeah. how fragile isla and the other eb kids are, yet how strong at the same time. it's these, you know, lucky or unlucky at the same time, but strong and fragile at the same time. but it's got to end. this has to end. you know, pain has to stop. you know, i'vejust done an hour in there and it's stopped. but, for them, it never stops. got to stop it. fighting time and tides, a final
8:20 am
push saw the team make landfall in france in 12 hours and 17 minutes. and despite the physical and mental toll, not for a second did they forget why they did it. what i say, it's one of the best experiences of my life. fantastic team. really loved it. but it's one of the worst conditions you can possibly imagine. and that has to stop. yeah. why did you do it, graeme? because i came across the disease. it's the worst thing i've ever seen in my life. and... and we have to find a way, a cure, ultimately, a cure for it. we have a way to make life easier for the children's day to day life. it is the cruelest, nastiest thing i've ever witnessed in my life. and i know other people will see things differently but, for me, it's the worst thing i've ever seen. and ijust wanted to be part of a fight that helps these poor kids.
8:21 am
and then, in the last nine months, we've worked hard and we've got here today, and i can tell you it's a mixture of elation, but also i'm knackered, i'm knackered. she had counted them out and isla counted them back in. i think they swum well. i wasn't on the boat, so i don't know but from what i've been hearing, they swum very well. i'm proud of them. yeah, they're proud of you, too. you know that, don't you? yeah. there is no cure for eb but graeme, andy and the team have raised more than £1 million — money that will fund research into repurposing existing drugs in an attempt to treat and to cure. this challenge may be over, but the fight against eb — the most cruel of diseases — is not. john maguire, bbc news, dover.

till quarter past nine here on bbc one. then it is time for morning live. gethin and sam can tell us what they've got lined up. isla the inspiration behind all that. well done. people struggling with spiralling debt. and in the last year thousands of brits have tried to manage spiralling costs with an individual voluntary arrangement, or an iva. you might have seen adverts for them offering to slash your bills, but finance expert iona bain explains that some providers are actually being banned from dishing them out. how they have been profiting from hefty referral fees which will be banned and how a debt relief order might be a better way to get back on track. plus, tonight a special panorama

investigation is putting antidepressants and their side effects under the microscope dr xand is here to reassure us that for many people the benefits outweigh the risks. one in seven brits are using them, and for many they work well. but they can have complications including nausea and anxiety. if that's causing worry and you want to stop, i'll explain why you should always see a doctor first. and the medics in bbc drama 'casualty' have been on our screens since 1986, the show's older than me! we chat to actor nigel harman and newcomer anna chell to find out why they have hidden skeletons in the closet. do not give it away. i am too excited- _ see you at 9:15am. do not spoil the surprise. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning.
8:32 am
welcome to bbc london, i'm thomas magill. shoplifting across the capital has risen by more than 20% in the past year, with some london businesses now using private security firms because they say the met�*s response to incidents isn t good enough. the firms are mostly there to act as a deterrent — but they can also make a citizens arrest if necessary. around a00 shops in clapham junction? have recently started to pay for special patrols to help tackle the problem. i understand that there are probably bigger crimes happening elsewhere and the met is stretched, etc. however, you would like to have some sort of a response to have somebody held accountable for the loss that you've had. the met says its not a new development for businesses to employ private security firms and it works closely with them. hundreds of firefighers in london are to be screened for cancer as part of a national health monitoring project. recentl,y evidence has shown cancer
8:33 am
among uk firefighters in their late 30s is over 300% higher than in the general population of the same age. the testing will look to identify evidence linking occupational cancers with exposure to toxic fire chemicals. homeless charities have written to the prime miniser raising concerns about his target to end rough sleeping in england by 2024. the government's strategy set a target to end rough sleeping by the end of this parliament. but figures for the capital show that between january and march there'd been an increase of ia% in the number of people on the streets compared to the same period last year. the government says it remains absolutely committed to ending rough sleeping. let's see now how the tube is looking. there are minor delays on the metropolitan lines — otherwise a good service on rest of the network. it was a mixed bag of weather over the weekend. what's in store? kate kinsella has the weather forcast.
8:34 am
good morning. it's a warm and humid start to the new week. one or two mist and fog patches around, but some sunny spells today, some well—scattered showers. the showers, if you get one, you might get a rumble of thunder, but not everywhere will. the showers will fade into the evening, so dry by the end of today. temperatures reaching 2a celsius. overnight tonight, it stays largely dry. clear to start with, but, again, might see a little bit of patchy cloud and mist and fog forming. minimum temperature between 12 and 15c. another warm night. you can see this rain just edging in as we head into tuesday morning. this system will gradually move towards us. bit of a question mark on to how far east it travels, but the potential is there for some heavy rain. it moves away northwards through the afternoon, showers to follow, but still some sunny spells by the end of tuesday and temperatures tomorrow around 23c. as we head through the rest of this week, showers always around, but some decent spells of sunshine and temperatures potentially getting a little warmer into next weekend.

8:44 am
ground and thinking ahead to this important day. yes, good morning. the covers are off. the rain has cleared. it is set “p off. the rain has cleared. it is set up beautifully ahead of this fourth day of what has been a thrilling first ashes test between england and australia. england will resume on 28-2. a australia. england will resume on 28—2. a lead of 35 in the second innings but you feel it will be a huge opening half hour on this fourth day. joe root will have to content with everything the australian pace attack will throw at him. the doom and gloom on sunday afternoon. in a 25—minute spell between rainstorms, two english wickets drained away to leave this test in a delicate position. if we could have a day, maybe just over a day to bowl at them, we feel like we can we can bowl them out. if they actually feel like they have a score that they can chase down, then we feel like we're in the game.
8:45 am
if they come out and play defensively like they have done so far this game, it might be a different story. england began with a plan. everything in its right place — fielders, ball. alex carey the latest to be entranced byjimmy anderson. all the while, though, australia were advancing and this was starting to hurt england. moeen ali's stinging spinning finger needed treatment. their attack weakened. so ben stokes improvised. he moved his men to unusual places to unsettle usman khawaja. bowled ollie robinson for a brilliant iai. breakthrough made, the rest of the aussie batting quickly gave way, ending fittingly in the hands of stokes. england's first innings lead — seven. but as the dark lord left, darker skies arrived. rain delayed the match and left behind it perfect hunting conditions for aussie bowlers. ben duckett gone to a brilliant catch from cameron green. black clouds looming ominously for zak crawley, who edged behind. england 35 runs ahead but two wickets down when the drama
8:46 am
moved to the heavens. on sunday, the weather became the central character in this test. on monday, it should be clearer and england will need to score runs knowing that australia have the pressure of batting last. this test remains finely balanced. patrick geary, bbc news at edgbaston. the weather is the talking points from yesterday but today we should have a full day of play and possibly a longer day with extra overs following those myths yesterday. we have part of the test match special team with us. it was looking good for england having bowled out australia but then it turned in australia's favour. it completely turn. australia's favour. it completely turn- this _ australia's favour. it completely turn. this is _ australia's favour. it completely turn. this is why _ australia's favour. it completely turn. this is why we _ australia's favour. it completely turn. this is why we are - australia's favour. it completely | turn. this is why we are captured australia's favour. it completely - turn. this is why we are captured by the drama. the weather has given australia an edge. up till that point, when england started batting, it felt like they would cruise away.
8:47 am
ben duckett looked positive and then the weather turned and the ball started swinging and pat cummins changed the field and got aggressive and picked up two quick wickets. i think the weather could play today in terms of rain, there is moisture in terms of rain, there is moisture in the air and that might help the australian bowlers. haifa in the air and that might help the australian bowlers.— in the air and that might help the australian bowlers. how crucial will the first half— australian bowlers. how crucial will the first half hour _ australian bowlers. how crucial will the first half hour be? _ australian bowlers. how crucial will the first half hour be? joe - australian bowlers. how crucial will the first half hour be? joe root, i the first half hour be? joe root, can he fend off the australian attack that will come? the australians _ attack that will come? the australians are _ attack that will come? its: australians are thinking attack that will come? iia: australians are thinking about attack that will come? i"ia: australians are thinking about how the innings went. joe root stuck at it and got a brilliant 100 and looked always impenetrable, so solid. bothjoe root and pope are on zero. if they pick up two quick wickets, you know the rest want to play bazball. if the ball swings it will not be ideal. if they can get a couple of wickets in the morning session, they are right in the game.
8:48 am
we have two days remaining and possibly more rain tomorrow. they want to win the first. how will it play out today? the want to win the first. how will it play out today?— play out today? the fun bit for everybody _ play out today? the fun bit for everybody is — play out today? the fun bit for everybody is olly _ play out today? the fun bit for everybody is olly robinson - play out today? the fun bit for i everybody is olly robinson talked yesterday about the fact they want to set australia a declaration, figure to chase that will tempt them. so far they have been conservative. england could surprise us and put 250, 300 maximum on the board and throw it to australia which is dangling a juicy carrot which is dangling a juicy carrot which might tempt australia to come out of their conservative play. australia are thinking get in with the wickets. bowling england out for a nice score they can knock off today and tomorrow but all things are possible which is why this is quite exciting. england will want to score runs quickly and throw something to australia to dangle the carrot. it something to australia to dangle the carrot. , , . ., carrot. it must be exciting to cover. given _ carrot. it must be exciting to cover. given understanding. | carrot. it must be exciting to i

8:50 am
are going to see more results. in the past you have seen a lot of drawn test matches. people ask how you cannot win in five days. not under ben stokes and brendon mccullum. they want results and they want to make something happen. mano; want to make something happen. many thanks. it is thrilling. _ want to make something happen. many thanks. it is thrilling. it _ want to make something happen. many thanks. it is thrilling. it is _ thanks. it is thrilling. it is brave. it is everything that underlines the captaincy on ben stokes since he took over. i guess people were worried, with the responsibility of being captain weigh him down? certainly not. and weigh him down? certainly not. and we wonder what we will see play out today. it will be exciting and sets us up for a thrilling summer of cricket. wejust wait us up for a thrilling summer of cricket. we just wait to see whether england can get the victory over australia in the first test which would set up this series and turn it into a cracker. studio: weather permitting. thank
