shower at trent bridge tomorrow. at wick today, we saw 58 millimetres of rain, more than the town would normally see in the whole ofjune. but the showers have been fading away in the last few hours, and it is now looking largely dry with this area of high pressure building its way in. i say largely dry, it is not going to be completely dry, still one or two showers. those showers p°ppin9 one or two showers. those showers p°pping up one or two showers. those showers popping up through the day particularly in parts of england and wales, and where you do catch one, the showers could be with you for quite some time, but lots of places will stay dry, and for much of scotland it should be a drier day thanit scotland it should be a drier day than it was today. higher temperatures down towards the south—east, 28 degrees, so warmer thanit south—east, 28 degrees, so warmer than it was today, and an increasingly warm feel, more cloud

towards the west, and some sunshine holding on towards the south—east corner, but an increasingly muggy, humid feel by day and by night as we head into the start of the weekend. saturday could see temperatures up to 28 or 29 degrees down towards the south, but at some point on sunday, this cold front is set to sweep its way southwards and eastwards, and that will change things and bring heavy, thundery rain. to sum up for the weekend, saturday, a lot of dry weather around, the weekend, saturday, a lot of dry weatheraround, real the weekend, saturday, a lot of dry weather around, real warmth and humidity, and then things will start to turn cooler and fresher. thanks, ben. and that's bbc news at ten on wednesday the 21st ofjune. for 13th time since 2021, after figures showed may's inflation was no lower than april's.

why does the uk have worse core inflation than every other g7 country? there are fears rising interest rates could mean a million mortgage holders could see disposable incomes fall by more than 20%. we'll talk to two people facing painful choices in the face of their mortgage rises, along with the shadow treasury minister. also tonight, the five men on board the missing sub are thought to have to have enough oxygen to last until tomorrow. a glimmer of hope was raised over multiple underwater noises which have continued today. we'll speak to ex—us navy diver

captain bobbie scholley. all full of hope for the future so let's make them very welcome as they begin their new life over here. tomorrow marks 75 years since hmt empire windrush docked in the uk. now a lawyer representing victims of the windrush scandal says the home office should be stripped of its role administering the compensation scheme. we are still pretty much where we were at the beginning suggests that something is structurally wrong in that department and so i do think now the time has come for somebody else to look at this. we'll talk to glenda caesar, who was told she wasn't british, despite living here for 60 years, and historian and writer david olusoga. there's nothing good about today's inflation figures. prices rose 8.7% in the year to may — that's the same rate of increase as in april, and, for the third month in a row, worse than expected. and taking out energy and food costs, over which we have less control, core inflation has gone up to 7.1% —

its highest rate in 30 years. it means there will almost certainly be another interest rate rise from the bank of england's monetary policy committee tomorrow to try and dampen down the economy. in fact, one of the chancellor's economic advisors suggested the bank might have to spark a recession to get inflation under control, inflicting more pain on many. but the uk is an outlier. compared to other rich nations, our inflation is worse, and our core inflation is going in totally the wrong direction. why? here's ben. the latest uk inflation data is bad, you'll have probably heard that by now. but we want to investigate the underlying reasons inflation is proving so painfully sticky here. and to do that by looking through an international perspective. so let's use newsnight�*s global tracker lens. uk headline inflation was 8.7% in may. as you can see, that's quite a bit worse than every other country in the g7. but its core inflation that central

bankers, like the bank of england, really care about. that's inflation stripping out volatile elements like food and fuel, because this shows the underlying inflationary pressure. so how does the uk compare there? well, core uk inflation rose again, to 7.1% in may. also much worse than the rest of the g7 and heading in the wrong direction. why does the uk have worse headline inflation? economists say it's mainly due to the design of the uk official energy market support here. the price cap means a delay in inflation coming down relative to elsewhere, as wholesale gas prices come down. but why do we have worse core inflation? candidates identified by economists include a bigger hit to the labour force from covid than elsewhere, a more overstretched uk health system at the moment than in other countries and brexit trade frictions. uk inflation is worse than our european and us

counterparts because, like the us, we have a tight labour market which is affecting wages and that's affecting inflation. and like europe, we are more affected by the energy and food price rises that we've seen in europe. the supply side of the economy is weak because of brexit and loss of our largest trading partner. that does lower down the supply side of the economy. but what about the bank of england? was the bank and its governor, andrew bailey, too late to raise rates? here's when the bank, the light blue line started raising interest rates, december 2021. as you can see, it started before its us counterpart, the red line, or the european central bank — the dark blue line. but some do still argue that the bank should have started earlier and done more. when the bank began hiking rates, uk inflation was the second highest in the g7 and rising quickly.

finally, what about the government's pledge to halve inflation this year? getting to below here? when the prime minister set that pledge at the start of the year it looked like it was going to be comfortable, as you can see from the office of budget responsibility�*s march forecast — the yellow line. but look at the outturn — the red line. will it hit the target? it's going to be tight. so, stubborn uk inflation is going to be painfulfor everyone, the government, the overall economy but most of all for uk households. the non—partisan institute for fiscal studies said today high borrowing costs was "unquestionably going to cause serious difficulty for many families". let's talk now to charlotte towne, from surrey, who lives with her husband and daughter. they are high earners. theirfixed rate mortgage is due to expire early next year. based on the current rates being offered, it will increase by over £1000 every month. madalyn bielfeld from borehamwood

has a current mortage deal of 1.94%. it's going to go up to 4% which means they will have to find an extra £400 every month. welcome to both of you and thank you for talking to us. what are the kind of thing is you and your husband are considering doing to deal with this? we are not ruling anything out at this stage. we are doing all the things we are supposed to be doing, cutting back on expenses, preparing for the inevitable increase to come through. we are doing everything we are supposed to be doing at this stage. are supposed to be doing at this staue. ~ , ., are supposed to be doing at this staae.~ ., ., stage. when you say you are not rulin: stage. when you say you are not ruling anything _ stage. when you say you are not ruling anything out, _ stage. when you say you are not ruling anything out, that - stage. when you say you are not ruling anything out, that means| ruling anything out, that means looking at reducing your child to care for your little girl's nursery but what about potentially moving? it is tricky point of the child care costis it is tricky point of the child care cost is the single biggest cost outside of the mortgage. 0urs cost is the single biggest cost outside of the mortgage. ours is one of the cheapest in the area. she only start next month and we're

already talking about potentially having to reduce or withdraw but it is £1800 a month which is a significant burden. so is £1800 a month which is a significant burden.- is £1800 a month which is a significant burden. so you could take her out _ significant burden. so you could take her out of— significant burden. so you could take her out of nursery - significant burden. so you could take her out of nursery for - significant burden. so you could take her out of nursery for a - significant burden. so you could . take her out of nursery for a couple of days to go to a childminder because it's cheaper?- because it's cheaper? slightly chea er because it's cheaper? slightly cheaper but — because it's cheaper? slightly cheaper but not _ because it's cheaper? slightly cheaper but not by _ because it's cheaper? slightly cheaper but not by as - because it's cheaper? slightly cheaper but not by as much . because it's cheaper? slightly| cheaper but not by as much as because it's cheaper? slightly - cheaper but not by as much as you would think actually. but we would have to make something work because i can't afford to not be working. to cover the bills. so that is one of the things we are considering. in terms of selling the house, that would be an absolute last resort. we don't have 25% equity in our property so things like going on interest rate only mortgages is not an option to us. renting out the property unfortunately it's also not an option to us. and one earth is going to buy property in this market? most people are sitting tight and waiting for the rates to go down. so we are pretty stuck and i think that is the primary

challenge we are going to be facing. madalyn, how is the prospect of your mortgage going up by £400 a month affecting you? it is mortgage going up by £400 a month affecting you?— affecting you? it is worrying me. i had ruite affecting you? it is worrying me. i had quite a _ affecting you? it is worrying me. i had quite a sleepless _ affecting you? it is worrying me. i had quite a sleepless night - affecting you? it is worrying me. i had quite a sleepless night last i had quite a sleepless night last night, — had quite a sleepless night last night, it— had quite a sleepless night last night, it is keeping me up. the increase — night, it is keeping me up. the increase is_ night, it is keeping me up. the increase is actually going to be 4.49, _ increase is actually going to be 4.49, which luckily we agreed just a few months— 4.49, which luckily we agreed just a few months ago when we knew it was coming _ few months ago when we knew it was coming to— few months ago when we knew it was coming to an end conduct so i am pleased _ coming to an end conduct so i am pleased because i think it could have _ pleased because i think it could have been a lot higher. but it is a real worry— have been a lot higher. but it is a real worry and things are already very tight — real worry and things are already very tight. i real worry and things are already ve tirht. , ., . ., ., very tight. i understand. who do you think is responsible? _ very tight. i understand. who do you think is responsible? well, - very tight. i understand. who do you think is responsible? well, this - think is responsible? well, this started, think is responsible? well, this started. a _ think is responsible? well, this started, a lot _ think is responsible? well, this started, a lot of _ think is responsible? well, this started, a lot of people - think is responsible? well, this - started, a lot of people responsible but liz _

rates need to be so high and do my savour�*s rates need to be so low? i think there are serious questions that need to be asked and if i was the government i would be looking into what we can do about it —— saver�*s rates. into what we can do about it -- saver's rates.— into what we can do about it -- saver's rates. muddling, do you think the banks _ saver's rates. muddling, do you think the banks should - saver's rates. muddling, do you think the banks should step - saver's rates. muddling, do you think the banks should step in, | saver's rates. muddling, do you i think the banks should step in, the government? 0r neither —— madalyn. is this the risk you take when you take out a mortgage? i is this the risk you take when you take out a mortgage?— take out a mortgage? i feel the government _ take out a mortgage? i feel the government should _ take out a mortgage? i feel the government should be - take out a mortgage? i feel the government should be doing i take out a mortgage? i feel the government should be doing al take out a mortgage? i feel the l government should be doing a lot more _ government should be doing a lot more than — government should be doing a lot more than they have been doing. like what? in more than they have been doing. like what? in terms _ more than they have been doing. like what? in terms of— more than they have been doing. like what? in terms of help _ more than they have been doing. like what? in terms of help but _ more than they have been doing. like what? in terms of help but in - more than they have been doing. like what? in terms of help but in terms l what? in terms of help but in terms of even recognising _ what? in terms of help but in terms of even recognising them _ what? in terms of help but in terms of even recognising them i - what? in terms of help but in terms of even recognising them i feel - what? in terms of help but in termsj of even recognising them i feel they have been— of even recognising them i feel they have been asleep for the past six months _ have been asleep for the past six months while this has been snowballing. i haven't seen anything constructive really happening so i feel there — constructive really happening so i feel there should be a lot more done _ feel there should be a lot more

let's talk to the shadow treasury minister abena 0ppong—asare. thank you for being here. nobody wants it but do we need a recession to sort inflation out? i wants it but do we need a recession to sort inflation out?— to sort inflation out? i think firstl , to sort inflation out? i think firstly. i _ to sort inflation out? i think firstly, i want _ to sort inflation out? i think firstly, i want to _ to sort inflation out? i think firstly, i want to say - to sort inflation out? i think firstly, i want to say what i to sort inflation out? i think i firstly, i want to say what i've heard from madalyn and charlotte is extremely concerning and i know a lot of individuals tonight will be going to sleep really worried about their mortgages and losing their properties. as they mentioned, there are a number of factors that have put us in this situation which is obviously liz truss's budget... although interest rates were rising before that. but although interest rates were rising before that. �* ., ., , before that. but that did not help the situation, _ before that. but that did not help the situation, if _ before that. but that did not help the situation, if i'm _ before that. but that did not help the situation, if i'm completely . the situation, if i'm completely honest, and there has been a lack of action from the government on this. tonight labour has been swiftly working on some recommendations and plans that we would like the government to take forward which we think would help individuals like charlotte and madalyn. for example,

instructing the fca to look at how they can support people. for example, delaying waiting six months before carrying out repossessions on individuals who have not been able to keep up with their mortgages. looking at how consumer advice to be given to individuals so they can properly know what projects are out there that can help them. but properly know what projects are out there that can help them.— there that can help them. but that is not going _ there that can help them. but that is not going help _ there that can help them. but that is not going help madalyn - there that can help them. but that is not going help madalyn pay - there that can help them. but that is not going help madalyn pay an l is not going help madalyn pay an extra £400 a month. i is not going help madalyn pay an extra £400 a month.— extra £400 a month. i haven't actually finished. _ extra £400 a month. i haven't actually finished. so _ extra £400 a month. i haven't actually finished. so what - extra £400 a month. i haven't actually finished. so what are | extra £400 a month. i haven't i actually finished. so what are you suggesting? _ actually finished. so what are you suggesting? we _ actually finished. so what are you suggesting? we are _ actually finished. so what are you suggesting? we are also - actually finished. so what are you i suggesting? we are also proposing lookin: at suggesting? we are also proposing looking at how _ suggesting? we are also proposing looking at how mortgage _ suggesting? we are also proposing looking at how mortgage could - suggesting? we are also proposing looking at how mortgage could be. looking at how mortgage could be lengthened as well so people are able to stay on their products for a bit longer. and also looking at borrowers essentially looking at lenders making sure they have interest—free mortgage properties,

these are things we think the government should be looking at. most importantly, we do think the government should be working with the fca to provide some sort of solution because tomorrow it is forecast that interest rates are going to go up. let forecast that interest rates are going to go up-_ forecast that interest rates are going to go up. forecast that interest rates are iii-ointoou, , going to go up. let me ask you this, some conservative _ going to go up. let me ask you this, some conservative mps _ going to go up. let me ask you this, some conservative mps like - going to go up. let me ask you this, some conservative mps like jake - some conservative mps like jake berry and jonathan gullis, who is in a red will situate the instant, are calling on the government for some sort of bailout for people but is that what labour would do if you were in government? i that what labour would do if you were in government?— that what labour would do if you were in government? i have said we have ut were in government? i have said we have put forward — were in government? i have said we have put forward a _ were in government? i have said we have put forward a proposal - were in government? i have said we have put forward a proposal of - were in government? i have said we have put forward a proposal of a - have put forward a proposal of a planned... 50 have put forward a proposal of a planned- - -_ have put forward a proposal of a planned. . ._ the i have put forward a proposal of a i planned. . ._ the plan planned... so no bailout? the plan we have put— planned... so no bailout? the plan we have put forward _ planned... so no bailout? the plan we have put forward will— planned... so no bailout? the plan we have put forward will tell - planned... so no bailout? the plan| we have put forward will tell people a lot better to help people a lot better and i suggest individuals are looking at the next few days, urge the government to look into this because we are currently having conversations with lenders to see what packages could be put out to support people in a better way. ben earlier showed that amongst other reasons, brexit frictions are partially to blame for inflation.

labour, keir starmer has ruled out joining the single market and customs union if you win the next election. we know the political and democratic arguments for that. people voted for brexit but what is the economic argument? the reality is we need to acknowledge how we are in this situation. we have had 13 years of a tory government where we have seen low growth. we have seen low growth. you had the keir starmer announced certain things to get the economy going. things like energy security, which charlotte mentioned, for example. we have seen dictators like putin dominating our energy system. the question was, what is the economic argument for not rejoining the single market of the customs union? . , the single market of the customs union? ., , ., ., , , union? that is not a simple fact that he sought _ union? that is not a simple fact that he sought the _ union? that is not a simple fact that he sought the issues - union? that is not a simple fact that he sought the issues are. i union? that is not a simple fact - that he sought the issues are. there needs to be a long—term plan, which is energy security, also get the economy growing. taste is energy security, also get the economy growing.—

is complex and involves experts and equipment from multiple countries. this is what captainjamie frederick from the us coastguard had to say about the noises. with respect to the noises specifically, we don't know what they are, to be frank with you. the p3 detected noises, that's why they're up there, that's why they're doing what they're doing, that's why they put sonar buoys in the water. the good news is, what i can tell you is we're searching in the area where the noises were detected, and we'll continue to do so. and we hope that when we are able to get additional rovs, which will be there in the morning, the intent will be to continue to search in those areas where the noises were detected and if they're continuing to be detected and then put additional rovs down in the last known position where the search was originally taking place. i'm joined now by captain bobbie scholley a former us navy diver. thank you very much for talking to us. you have been involved in a number of search and rescue missions. i wonder what hope you think there is of finding this soap?

dozens were wrongly deported. one of the leading lawyers representing windrush victims has criticised the home office for not making more progress since the scandal broke — and is calling for another body to take over. but some have concerns that doing so could significantly delay making payments. 0n the eve of this special anniversary — anna has been speaking to one family affected. icame i came here in 1961 from india. i left school at 16 and i got a job as an apprentice mechanic. everything was fine, i got a national insurance number, went to live, paid my taxes, until i applied for a passport. those are the words of geoff thomas, read by his widow, sandy. at the age of ten, jeff moved from a commonwealth country to the uk and as a result of the immigration act

1971, he had the right to live and work here indefinitely. when he applied for british citizenship as an adult, the home office repeatedly stated there was no work of him. jeff and sandy spent most of their 50 year marriage haunted by the possibility of his deportation. like m father possibility of his deportation. like my father and _ possibility of his deportation. i he: my father and my family, those people came here to rebuild this country and to be treated like this is atrocious. you treat an animal better. yeah, you lived it, but you didn't really talk about it, you know. you just got on with it. just all his national insurance, his taxes. sandy showed page _ national insurance, his taxes. sandy showed page after— national insurance, his taxes. sandy showed page after page _ national insurance, his taxes. sandy showed page after page of - national insurance, his taxes. sandy showed page after page of proof of geoff's life in the uk.— geoff's life in the uk. none of this stuff was good _ geoff's life in the uk. none of this stuff was good enough _ geoff's life in the uk. none of this stuff was good enough for - geoff's life in the uk. none of this stuff was good enough for them. i geoff's life in the uk. none of this i stuff was good enough for them. but within months of applying to the windrush scheme in 2018, jeff's

areas the sounds were in. and even though they have not said the sound is actually represent where the titan is, they have not ruled out that the sounds are not the titan so it gives me hope. and the other thing is that everybody is focused on the 96 hour window for the life support that they are giving to the crew, but that is not a hard and fast number. and i know the search teams are not focused on that being a hard and fast number. this will continue to be a rescue mission, even past that number, if it has to be. that still gives me hope also. there have been concerns raised about the stress on the sub because of the numbers of times it has gone to that depth, two and a half miles below sea level. is that something that alarms you?—
