another interest rates rise is on the cards after inflation remains stubbornly high. yes, this will be the 13th time in a row the bank has hiked the cost of borrowing. i'll be looking further financial pain for households, and if it's really necessary in order bring down the high cost of living. on a critical day in the search for the missing titanic sub, the us coast guard says it still has hope. good morning. we're at trent bridge in nottingham as the women's ashes gets under way. australia are the heavy favourites, but england are hoping home advantage and record crowds could help them regain the ashes for the first time in a decade. also on breakfast, we are reunited with an old friend, the giant mechanical bull from the commonwealth games last year. it has been fully restored after the public
6:01 am
savedit been fully restored after the public saved it from the scrapheap. the public have chosen its proper name. we will reveal that after eight o'clock. we have got a few showers around today, particularly in central and eastern england. for the vast majority, a sunny and warm day. full forecast on breakfast. good morning. it's thursday, the 22nd ofjune. the bank of england is expected to raise interest rates again later today, as it tries to tackle rising prices. it comes after inflation remains much higher than expected, at 8.7%. ben's here with the details. it will be a significant day for a lot of household?— it will be a significant day for a lot of household? . ,., , ., , lot of household? yeah, some people facin: this lot of household? yeah, some people facing this very _ lot of household? yeah, some people facing this very quickly _ lot of household? yeah, some people facing this very quickly indeed. - lot of household? yeah, some people facing this very quickly indeed. the i facing this very quickly indeed. the bank of england is in a difficult position. it has to get a grip on inflation, the average rising prices that we are all experiencing. the main tool is to raise the base level
6:02 am
of interest rates. that makes borrowing costs on mortgages and loans more expensive. why is it doing this? inflation is at 8.7%. it has been there for two months. not as high as it was over the winter, but not coming down as quickly as had been hoped. the target for the bank is to see inflation at 2%. a long way to go. to bring inflation down the theory is you need to encourage people to curb their spending and start saving. that is what you try to achieve by raising interest rates. we are currently at a base level of 4.5%. already a lot higher than the rates of less than i% higher than the rates of less than i% we saw before 2022. and the consensus is that rates will rise again today, to 4.75%, possibly even 5%. potentially good news if you have savings. that depends on how quickly the rate is passed on by the banks to those with savings. there will be a negative impact on those with variable or tracker mortgages,
6:03 am
or anybody looking to remortgage any time soon. the average two—year fixed deal hit more than 6% this week, adding hundreds of pounds a month to repayments compared with just a couple of years ago. that makes it a tough time for many. i'm afraid it is likely to get worse before things get any better. the institute for fiscal studies has the —— has done some research and say dolls with a mortgage will face losing 20%, a fifth of their disposable income, because of rate rises this year, and suggests those under a0 will be the hardest hit. here are some more details. the theory is that rising interest rates make it more expensive to borrow money, meaning people have less to spend, and so bringing down demand and therefore easing price rises. what's your name, please? but this brighton mortgage broker says the theory is that rising interest rates make it more expensive but this brighton mortgage broker says people are already accepting extraordinary changes to the length of their terms to keep monthly costs down.
6:04 am
lenders are coming up with different ways of helping clients. they are looking at extending mortgage terms for a longer period of time. so, some lenders will go up to the age of 80. it's all lender specific. new analysis by age and region shows that people in their 20s and 30s are most affected by rising mortgage costs. they face a £300 to £360 a month hike. those in london and the south—east, where house prices and mortgages are the highest, face a bigger hit. people such as ewan, a management consultant, having to find an extra £a00 a month. i remember speaking to a friend of mine who, we bought roughly at the same time, and he locked into a five year mortgage. and i rememberwe both kind of laughed saying, oh, we'll see who ends up on the better end of the spectrum in a couple of years' time. he's the one laughing and i'm the one paying the price. eight out of ten mortgage customers hold a fixed rate mortgage. their monthly payments may not change immediately, but
6:05 am
house buyers, or anyone seeking to remortgage, face a sharp rise in repayments when they move onto a new deal. we are talking about people with mortgages and how they are going to be hit as their fixed rates end. this also applies to landlords, who owned properties and pay mortgages. it is passing on to people who are renting as well?— it is passing on to people who are rentin: as well? ., , ., ., ., renting as well? people want at home who do not have _ renting as well? people want at home who do not have a _ renting as well? people want at home who do not have a mortgage - renting as well? people want at home who do not have a mortgage but - renting as well? people want at home who do not have a mortgage but rent| who do not have a mortgage but rent their home, they may also see their monthly rent goes up if landlords have their mortgage costs rising and they pass that on. we should say we get any decision from the bank of england at midday today. for anyone who is worried about this, there is more information, support, plenty of advice on the bbc tackling a together section, on the cost of living part of the website. you are

6:07 am
are estimates, and they are estimates, we need to be clear about that, that of the oxygen supply and the submarine could run out later today. what you are seeing is an expanded effort to search for this vessel. as we know it disappeared and went missing on sunday as it headed down to look at the wreckage of the titanic. since then this increasingly expansive search operation has been going on. it is going on in the air. there are planes scanning the surface of the water to see if the vessel might have re—emerged. there is solar technology listening in deep into the ocean, unmanned robots diving and is well to see what they can see. and there are these noises that have been picked up, that are now being analysed by specialists in the navy to see. the hope would be may the men might be banging on the side of the vessel to alert the people who are looking for them. but we really don't know. they say the source of those noises are not yet
6:08 am
known. but the search operation is absolutely intensifying, as we report. everything possible is being used to try and find the missing submersible. these are the first images of the complicated international hunt unfolding in the atlantic ocean, more than a00 miles from the coast. it's now entered its most critical day. the sub, which is the size of a minivan, needs to be found before oxygen runs out for the men on board. but there is some hope. more noises have been heard. when you're in the middle of a search and rescue case, you always have hope. that's why we're doing what we do. with respect to the noises specifically, we don't know what they are, to be frank with you. 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. at that depth radio and radar signals won't work. so the rescue operation has been dropping sonobuoys in the water. they either use passive detection — that's listening for sounds produced
6:09 am
by propellers and machinery, which could also include the crew making noise — or what's called active detection, by bouncing a sonar ping off the surface of the vessel and listening for a returning echo. trapped inside are british citizens hamish harding, shahzada dawood and his teenage son suleman. shahzada is someone who's got an uncommon zest for life. he has a real sense of adventure. he has a real sense of exploration. in fact, he has a passion for exploration. also on board is a french veteran diver, paul—henry nargeolet, and stockton rush, the head of the firm behind the expedition to the bottom of the sea. more vessels and more equipment is arriving here to be sent all the way out to sea to assist with the international operation. 0fficials here still consider this a search and rescue mission, but there's less than half a day's worth of oxygen
6:10 am
left inside that vessel. and so there are fears this could turn from rescue to recovery. the head of the company that owns the polar prince, which launched the submersible over the weekend, has spoken for the first time since it went missing. we are very aware of the time sensitivity around this mission. 0ur crews and onshore team are experts in their fields, and we'll continue to support this effort in every way we can. we remain focused on contributing to the search for the titan crew and continue to hold out hope that they will be located and brought home safely. but overall, the reality of what could happen isn't lost on people here. as one expert put it, it's like trying to find a missing spaceship on the far side of the moon. even if the sub is found in time, rescuers then have to somehow get the men out to safety. nomia iqbal, bbc news st john's in newfoundland.

37 people have been injured, and two are still missing, after a large explosion in the centre of paris. the blast happened in a building that housed a design school. authorities say the cause of the blast has not yet been determined. a man is in custody after two people were stabbed outside the central middlesex hospital in london. one of the victims is in a critical condition. the suspect is also being treated for self—inflicted knife wounds. the hospital was temporarily locked down, but has since reopened with a heightened police presence. a firefighter has gone missing while attempting to complete a charity swim across the english channel. iain hughes set off from dover with a support boat on tuesday, before disappearing. a search involving military helicopters, as well as navy and police boats, has now been called off. those are the main story is at 12 minutes past six.— minutes past six. let's say good mornin: minutes past six. let's say good morning to _ minutes past six. let's say good morning to matt _ minutes past six. let's say good morning to matt with _ minutes past six. let's say good morning to matt with the - minutes past six. let's say good i morning to matt with the weather.

6:14 am
it adds that some analysts are predicting a rise of half a percentage point. elsewhere, the daily telegraph reports that anyone who has ever smoked is to be offered a lung check from middle—age, as part of a plan to boost cancer survival rates. and a popular story on the bbc news website this morning — councils are warning that getting rid of fees to dispose of diy material will see costs passed on to households. the government said it wanted to deterfly—tipping, but the local government association said the costs could result in higher council tax. do you think you are a creature of habit? i would say so. just put my pen exactly their while i am talking. carry on. do exactly their while i am talking. car on. , ., exactly their while i am talking. car on. ,, ~ exactly their while i am talking. car on. i. ~ i. exactly their while i am talking. car on. ~' carry on. do you think when you cook on the harbour, _ carry on. do you think when you cook on the harbour, you _ carry on. do you think when you cook on the harbour, you have _ carry on. do you think when you cook on the harbour, you have a _ carry on. do you think when you cook on the harbour, you have a favoured | on the harbour, you have a favoured gas ring? on the harbour, you have a favoured

6:17 am
but for generations to come. tucked away in a croydon shopping centre is a recreation of that new life in a classic windrush home. you know, sir, it's... it takes these women decades back to those early days in the uk, settling in and getting to grips with a new culture and climate. everything was cold. i came in april 1962 - and ijust yearned for home. there is a book by the bbc called going to britain and the first picture in that book is me, aged three and a half, at my my nanny�*s and it's got me in my little duffel coat, my hat, and it says underneath, the caption is "dressed for the cold." i remember initially before i did nursing, i applied for a job in the west end, not knowing anything about racism. i went for the interview and the lady put me in a room
6:18 am
and she never came back to me. i sat there for about six hours and then the shop was closing and i left. my first day at school, the teacher asked my name and i told her all the different names i had, because injamaica you'd have a pet name, then you'd have another name, what my dad called me and whatever, and i put reed on the end because that's my surname. and the teacher said, "no, dear, go home and ask your mother what your name is." so that was my start. although today is a day of celebration and fond memories, for some, it is a reminder of injustices that they've had to endure. it has very much mixed feelings, because for one, it took so many years for some recognition of some sort, it's not there yet, of what the windrush generation did. johnny samuels is one of thousands of people affected by the windrush scandal, which saw people who had
6:19 am
the legal right to live and work here wrongly deported or detained because they weren't given proof of status by the home office. 2015, i received a deportation letter. that was shocking, that was hurtful, painful, and my family wasn't. .. well, you know, everybody was very sad. so what would your message to the home office be? people are dying. folks from the windrush era are dying who have made claims and are waiting. in a statement, the home office told the bbc it is committed to righting the wrongs of windrush and that it has paid or offered more than £75 million in compensation, but that it knows there is still more to do. despite what this generation has gone through, there's still an enduring pride in what they've built here. coming from the different islands, we have done a lot in this country. i would say...
6:20 am
as i normally say, we have put the great in britain. we have worked hard to put this legacy forward. that is a mark that our children can look back and say, "well, our parents did that." ashitha nagesh, bbc news. he was the unexpected star at the opening ceremony of last year's commonwealth games in birmingham — a huge mechanical bull with smoke billowing from his nostrils. the so—called raging bull was destined for the scrap heap. but after public demand, he was saved — and will soon be towering over passengers at new street station. but there's one final step before he makes thatjourney. he needs a name. mike's with him this morning and has all the details. we get a sense of the scale of the raging bull when you stand next to

6:22 am
shortlist. we will reveal what you have chosen to name the ball after eight o'clock. first, let's recap on the famous journey of the bowl. —— bull. the surprise star attraction of the opening ceremony at last summer's commonwealth games was birmingham's own mechanical bull. a nod to the city's history, its bull ring market and the oppressed workers of the industrial revolution. and just as they did, the bull threw off its shackles and made its way to the city centre. and there it stood proudly for the rest of the games, attracting huge crowds. while inside, a team of six were working away to bring it to life with its eyes and snorting, this tall beast of engineering had taken five months to build. but as revealed on bbc
6:23 am
breakfast lastjuly, when the games finished, the plan was for the bull to be dismantled, no more. a lot of it made of perishable foam, it wasn't built to last. so began a campaign to save the bull. it had its own twitter page and celebrities far and wide joined the cause. save the bull. you got to save that bull. save that bull. save the bull. save the bull for our city. the game's organisers, the council and the bull's creators started talking. they were listening and just before the games ended, it was announced on breakfast that the bull would be saved. we can reveal some breaking news on the bull and its future, and speak to ian ward, the leader of birmingham city council. ian, what can you tell us? well, as you can see, the bull is still enormously popular here in birmingham. so i'm delighted that birmingham city council has successfully negotiated to keep the bull here in the city. the news was celebrated, tails set wagging. hello, truffles, you've done thejob, you've helped the campaign and saved the bull. well, he can go back to bed now, can't he?!
6:24 am
he doesn't look too interested at all. the ball then stayed in the city for the rest of the summer before moving to winter storage while long term decisions were made. but first, down to london, to the creators to be restored to its bullish best, but this time built for a long term future. a permanent home was then settled on — birmingham's new street station. all that was needed now was a name — perhaps brummie or bostin' or 0zzy, or boulton. thousands had their say before today's decision day. and in two hours we will find out what everybody has chosen. mike is one of the creators. it is a bit like the christening day, isn't it, finally choosing the identity? it is uuite finally choosing the identity? it is quite emotional. i still think back to birmingham and the people and the reaction _ to birmingham and the people and the reaction it_ to birmingham and the people and the reaction. it was very, very sort of overwhelming, really. find reaction. it was very, very sort of overwhelming, really.— reaction. it was very, very sort of overwhelming, really. and the way it was saved. overwhelming, really. and the way it was saved- it — overwhelming, really. and the way it was saved. it was _ overwhelming, really. and the way it

6:27 am
the weekend. happy mondays' shaun ryder and the who's zak starkey will be here on the sofa as they prepare to headline the glade stage with their new 90s supergroup. they ll be here just before nine o'clock. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. two people are in hospital after being attacked at a hospital in west london yesterday afternoon — one remains in a life—threatening condition. armed police were called to a stabbing at central middlesex hospital — after what was described as a "major incident". police said a man was also being treated for critical injuries, which are said to be self—inflicted. a man has been arrested. the london mayor will face questions today at city hall over the scrappage scheme for the expansion of the ultra—low emission zone. transport for london has earmarked £110 million for the scheme, with grant payments of a maximum
6:28 am
of £2,000 for noncompliant cars. the mayor extended eligibility for the scrappage scheme last month — but there was no extra money — and critics say it doesn't go far enough. as part of the windrush anniversary events — a project in north london is hoping to teach young children about the experiences of those that came from the caribbean to help rebuild britain after the war. local residents and families have been speaking about their stories and first hand accounts, which now — some 75 years later — have been written into a children's book. what people think about now is the scandal. although what's happened there is appalling, what's happened to the older generation. but i wanted young children to understand what contribution my parents made — because i look at my parents and their generation as pioneers. 100 paddleboarders are expected to head along the river thames from kew to richmond later today —
6:29 am
to help clear up litter and plastics. last time the event was organised was before the pandemic. thames2i and the port of london authority say they remove at least 200 tonnes of waste from the river each year, much of it single—use plastic. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning but the metropolitan line is part—suspended between chesham and chalfont and latimer. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good with elizabeth rizzini. morning. temperatures will rising good morning. temperatures will be rising as we head into this weekend, so starting to feel warmer. lots of dry weather to come in the forecast and plenty of sunshine can be an. watch out for a few showers developing at times, that's especially true today and particularly for northern home counties. the showers could be heavy and thundery and the will be quite slow moving can because the winds are light. as we had three this morning, lots of blue sky and
6:30 am
sunshine out there. a bit of club developing through the afternoon. watch out for a shower or two. top temperatures peaking at 27 celsius. as we head through this evening and overnight, any showers we see will gradually fade away to leave dry night with close skies. temperatures dipping back to the mid—teens into tomorrow morning. tomorrow starting tomorrow morning. tomorrow starting to feel more humid and it will cloud over through the afternoon but it will stay dry and start to feel warmer again as we head into the weekend. that's it — head to our website to find out more about the exhibition chronicalling the experiences of the windrush generation. we're back in half an hour. bye for now. hello this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. good naga munchetty and charlie stayt. morning. the ti borrowers have been warned to expect another rise in interest rates, with the bank of england's announcement expected later today. ben's here with the details.
6:31 am
it's an important announcement following the sequence that's been going up for a long period of time. yes, absolutely and this affects millions either directly or indirectly. yes — this will be the 13th time interest rates have risen since the end of 2021. let's show you this graph — it demonstrates what's been going. you can see interest rates stayed below i% for well over a decade. then you can see the steady increments. from 0.25% in december 2021. we find ourselves now at a.5% and the general consensus is another rate rise today. a.75% — possibly even 5% according to some economists. that's because inflation — the rate at which prices are rising — is still way above the bank's target of 2%. putting up interest rates is pretty
6:32 am
much the only tool the bank has to bring those prices down. but if you've got a mortgage — or you're looking for one — it's clearly a worrying time. i.a million people on tracker and variable rate deals will see an almost immediate increase in their monthly payments. and this week the average two—yearfixed mortgage deal has gone above 6%. how much more you pay per month, as a result of this, depends on how much you're borrowing and how long you've got left to pay your mortgage. as an example — if you've got £250,000 left to pay and 25 years remaining, you'd be looking at paying around £a00 more per month. 0ur correspondent marc ashdown has been to meet three people facing a big rise in their housing costs. rebecca from greater manchester, craig in cambridgeshire, and rose who lives in hampshire. just three homeowners out of hundreds of thousands of people facing a huge rise in their mortgage costs over the coming months.
6:33 am
at this moment in time, at the end ofjune, i will make my final payment of £a3a when my current deal ends, and thereafter i have been told to expect my payments will be over £1,800. i'm currently paying £560 a month. at the end ofjuly, it will go on to variable and it will go up to £1,200 a month. 0ur mortgage has gone up by over £2,200 a year. - it's a huge impact on our- expenditure and has an impact on the family as a whole. rose has already been cutting costs on day—to—day activities and even some essentials to try and cope. the impacts are huge. so i am having to cut down on how much i spend a week on food. i'm having to plan my meals that i cook for the children.
6:34 am
i'm trying to cut down on day trips because of the cost of fuel going up, as well. i'm trying to... i'm also currently looking at getting another part—time job alongside my currentjob in order to bring in more money to pay for the bills. rebecca, too, has already had to cut back on her outgoings after her husband — who was the main breadwinner — passed away. i've been doing that for the last two years because i've obviously had to adapt to a new life that has to happen on the income i get. i'd struggle to make more cutbacks than i do, to be honest. but i will have to look again. want a bit more? yeah! craig and his family are trying to be creative to save money. i work nights and my wife works days l so that it reduces childcare costs. i
6:35 am
we are cutting down- on things such as takeaways. we've looked at all the tv providers to reduce those fees as well. - these increasing costs are also taking their toll on people's well—being. it's having an effect on my mental wellbeing because i am stressed with everything going on and the cost of everything. 0bviously that's having a knock on effect on my children's wellbeing as well. i'd just like some consideration to people who just cannot afford what they are now expecting them to pay. i can't literally print money. ideally, what i would like is a proposal to manage what i can do for certain in the next few months. if i cannot resolve matters anyway, the house will have to be sold. i time is really important because, i you know, they want time with mum and dad together and to not be able i to do things that we used to do i as often as we used to do, . and having that carpet swept
6:36 am
from under your feet, you know, it's a really disheartening thing l especially for the children, _ because they don't understand what's going on in the world. with yet another rise in interest rates looming, there will be difficult decisions for families across the uk. it's a really worrying time for many. and you can find more information, support and advice on the bbc�*s cost of living web page. just search for "bbc cost of living". we'll be talking about this later because it affects so many people and people have lots of questions around this. and people have lots of questions around this-— let's turn to sport and the women's ashes. we had a lot of excitement
6:37 am
from the men's ashes, now we've got the next round. from the men's ashes, now we've got the next round-— the next round. yes, and it's set to be 'ust the next round. yes, and it's set to be just as — the next round. yes, and it's set to be just as big- _ the next round. yes, and it's set to be just as big. welcome _ the next round. yes, and it's set to be just as big. welcome to - the next round. yes, and it's set to be just as big. welcome to trent i be just as big. welcome to trent bridge in nottingham. the last time the ashes were held in england, it started and more low—key fashion in leicester. a test match at trent bridge, played over five days. the first time that's happened since 1992. and that's been reflected in the crowds — tickets sales already more than double the last one. england skipper heather knight has promised the fans entertainment. but make no mistake, they've got a real battle against one of the best sporting sides in the world as jo currie explains.
6:38 am
one of the greatest teams in sporting history. australia have struck gold! seven—time world cup champions, they've lifted the t20 world cup on six occasions — and last summer they claimed commonwealth gold. australia start these ashes as massive favourites. so how do you beat an unbeatable team? they've been setting the standards and they're pushing us to be better. but i think the opportunity to do something really special this summer is really exciting us. we feel like we're going to have to try and get the crowd on our side as well. we're going to try and maximise home advantage as much as we can. this is a multiformat series, with three t20s and three one—day matches, all worth two points each. but it all starts here at trent bridge — with a test match which is worth four points. england haven't won the ashes since 201a. australia are understandably confident. i can't wait for the atmosphere. what an amazing time to be a female athlete over here in the uk, with the support that i can see
6:39 am
and i can feel. so, for us as an aussie group, we are relishing that and excited to be here in the contest. so far, 80,000 tickets have been sold across the series, with matches being played in cricket's most prestigious grounds — including lords and the oval. fans this summer have one of sport's greatest contests to look forward to. asjo was explaining there, the points system means australia need eight points to retain the trophy. so win this match — and they are halfway there. elsewhere manchester city captain ilkay gundogan willjoin barcelona on a free transfer when his contract expires at the end of the month. he was integral in helping city win the treble, including two goals in the fa cup final. city offered him a new contract but he's expected to sign a three—year deal with barcelona.
6:40 am
tennis, and harriet dart is through to the quarterfinals of tennis�*s birmingham classic. following on from her win over fellow britjodie burrage on tuesday, dart beat the fifth seed from ukraine anhelina kalinana in three sets. dart is one of five british women to be given a wild card entry for wimbledon which starts a week on monday. british number one cameron norrie came from behind to reach the queen's quarterfinals for a second time. norrie, who was a wimbledon semi—finalist last year, lost the first set to australian jordan thompson but recovered to win the match a—6, 6—3, 6—2. it wasn't all good news for the brits though yesterday as ryan peniston lost to second seed holger rune in straight sets to bow out at queens. and frankie dettori said he couldn't be happier after picking up a win at his final royal ascot.
6:41 am
dettori — who is retiring later this year — took the queen's vase race on board the favourite gregory and celebrated with his usual flying dismount. dettori had three second place finishes on tuesday and said he thought the winner was never going to come. where the winner is going to come from in this first women's ashes test match, this only women's ashes test match, this only women's ashes test match, this only women's ashes test match is anybody�*s guess at the minute. australia are the heavy favourites, england have an inexperienced bowling attack. but just last week england's second team smashed australia for 500, would you believe. so maybejust maybe smashed australia for 500, would you believe. so maybe just maybe there could be the chance of an upset. thanks so much. the could be the chance of an upset. thanks so much.— could be the chance of an upset. thanks so much.
6:42 am
rescue teams are entering another critical of searching for the tourist submersible that went missing near the wreck of the titanic. those on the vessel are british billionaire, hamish harding. british businessman shahzada dawood, and his son — 19—year—old suleman. french explorer, paul—henry nargeolet and stockton rush, the chief executive of 0ceangate — the firm behind the dive. the sub was towed a00 miles from canada's newfoundland before arriving at the wreck site for the dive on sunday morning. it was supposed to last no more than eight hours. the team lost contact with their ship after one hour and a5 minutes — and nothing has been heard from them since. this is what the titan submersible looks like — it's less than seven metres long — about the size of a transit van — making it even harder to find. it can descend down to 3,800 metres — where the titanic lies. a depth most rescue vessels wouldn't be able to reach. just to give you a sense of how deep this is. blue whales can only dive a maximum 500 metres. beyond that, at 750 metres,
6:43 am
you enter the danger zone for military submarines. once the sub goes below 1,000 metres — it's in complete darkness. and the site is almost another 3,000 metres further down on the sea bed. we're nowjoined by 0isin fanning, who has been on board the titan submersible twice before — and knows some of the passengers. thank you for your time. i can only imagine what your thoughts are at what is a very challenging time. i wonder if you can share your experiences. you've been on board titan with two of those on board. tell us about paul—henry nargeolet because his hugely experienced, isn't he? he because his hugely experienced, isn't he? . because his hugely experienced, isn't he? , ., , , . isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he sent isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he spent most _ isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he spent most of— isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he spent most of his _ isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he spent most of his career i isn't he? he is fastly experienced. he spent most of his career with l isn't he? he is fastly experienced. l he spent most of his career with the french navy and at the end of his career was in charge of all

submersibles in the french navy and then beyond privately. he is hugely experienced. he's probably had a0 dives the titanic. 0n experienced. he's probably had a0 dives the titanic. on other subs he's been diving there as well. he is hugely experienced as is stockton. they are both consummate professionals. i would expect they've got caught or something like that. the minute that happened they would have realised the thrust wasn't strong enough to pull out. they would be conserving energy, oxygen immediately. that would have been an absolute priority. they wouldn't be panicking. i believe their clients are high—powered businessmen and one of their sons. they would be used to not panicking in business and i'm sure they will have been hunkering down, concerning oxygen. they have chemicals that will scout the carbon dioxide, they even have blankets that can take the carbon dioxide out of the air. when we did tests on the sub itself, you
6:45 am
can actually see the oxygen going up, you can physically see it. it’s up, you can physically see it. it's really interesting because you've been on board. the rescue efforts are of course ongoing as we speak. there's been a lot of focus on whether they can hear anything. the suggestion there's been some noise, they can't account for it but it feel significant. tell us what procedures you know of that you would do in the event of being in some kind of an emergency situation. you do nothing. there's nothing you can do at that depth. there's little debris around but an accident is always possible, something could have fallen across you. logic would tell you the antenna had been broken which is why you can't hear anything from them. you would be sitting still, conserving energy, not wasting oxygen and hoping that
6:46 am
someone can get down to you quickly enough to put you out of there. because obviously nobody can exit the sub at those levels. the suggestion _ the sub at those levels. the suggestion was _ the sub at those levels. the suggestion was that - the sub at those levels. the suggestion was that the tapping may have been a signal, that there is an agreed signal, this half hour and on the hour, that this is something they may have done because that is a procedure for sending out an alert. i would agree with you, very likely. there are no noises down there, no noises on the titanic, there is nothing so the likelihood is that it is someone tapping every 30 minutes to indicate where they are. you is someone tapping every 30 minutes to indicate where they are.— to indicate where they are. you feel like when you _ to indicate where they are. you feel like when you went _ to indicate where they are. you feel like when you went on _ to indicate where they are. you feel like when you went on board, i to indicate where they are. you feel like when you went on board, the i like when you went on board, the safety procedures, that what you still give you confidence that everything was done properly and with the right care?— everything was done properly and with the right care? absolutely. a ear

6:48 am
comes to their aid. it is standard procedure and has been over the years. it's great to see it and it gives them a great chance of getting out from there. aha, gives them a great chance of getting out from there.— out from there. a final thought that we started with _ out from there. a final thought that we started with the _ out from there. a final thought that we started with the two _ out from there. a final thought that we started with the two men i out from there. a final thought that we started with the two men on i out from there. a final thought that i we started with the two men on board that you've been on board titan with, in terms of their characters and ability to withstand a hugely challenging situation. it sounds like they are the best equipped in many ways to try to cope with it. honestly, if i was on the sub and i was in trouble those are the two people i would want with me. i really appreciate your time. thank you. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. it feels like it has settled in. we in summer? we

6:50 am
between england and australia there is shower potential today. we could get lucky and they could avoid the ground altogether. what showers do form could cause issues into the rush—hour. most go into tonight dry and clear but by the end of the night fairly humid conditions. temperatures by and large in double figures to start friday. 0n temperatures by and large in double figures to start friday. on friday, a lot more cloud around. sunny conditions in the south—east and north—east of scotland. the club producing outbreaks of rain, drizzle in the west end may heavy bursts. further south and east staying dry. another humid day. friday night into saturday, lots of low cloud, quite a courageous early start. a few showers cropping up here and there
6:51 am
during the afternoon but actually a bit more sunshine three saturday afternoon. but she made feel, coming with air that's pushing up from spain and france. some fishing conditions in the atlantic. the dividing line is going to be this, weather front working its way in. sunday starts of dry and bright. hefty may be sundry downpours in northern ireland spreading east through the day. 0nly northern ireland spreading east through the day. only a few showers expected across southernmost counties of england and south wales. you may get dry. but weather front making a difference of 18 degrees in belfast. a good 10 degrees difference either side of that weather front. difference either side of that weatherfront. if difference either side of that weather front. if you're about to head off to glastonbury there could potentially be some showers around, especially on sunday and a bit of

6:57 am
armed police were called to a stabbing at central middlesex hospital after what was described as a "major incident". police said a man was also being treated for critical injuries, which are said to be self—inflicted. a man has been arrested. the london mayor will face questions today at city hall over the scrappage scheme for the expansion of the ultra—low emission zone. transport for london has earmarked £110 million for the scheme, with grant payments of a maximum of £2,000 for non—compliant cars. the mayor extended eligibility for the scrappage scheme last month, but there was no extra money — and critics say it doesn't go far enough. as part of the windrush anniversary events, a project in north london is hoping to teach young children about the experiences of those that came from the caribbean to help rebuild britain after the war. local residents and families have been speaking about their stories and first hand accounts, which now, some 75 years later, have been
6:58 am
written into a children's book. what people think about now is the scandal. although what's happened there is appalling, what's happened to the older generation. but i wanted young children to understand what contribution my parents made — because i look at my parents and their generation as pioneers. a hundred paddleboarders are expected to head along the river thames from kew to richmond later today, to help clear up litter and plastics. last time the event was organised was before the pandemic. thames21 and the port of london authority say they remove at least 200 tonnes of waste from the river each year, much of it single—use plastic. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. temperatures will be rising as we head into this weekend,
6:59 am
so starting to feel warmer. lots of dry weather to come in the forecast and plenty of sunshine. watch out for a few showers developing at times, that's especially true today and particularly for northern home counties. the showers could be heavy and thundery and the will be quite slow moving can because the winds are light. as we had three this morning, lots of blue sky and sunshine out there. a bit of cloud developing through the afternoon. watch out for a shower or two. top temperatures peaking at 27 celsius. as we head through this evening and overnight, any showers we see will gradually fade away to leave dry night with close skies. temperatures dipping back to the mid—teens into tomorrow morning. tomorrow starting to feel more humid and it will cloud over through the afternoon but it will stay dry and start to feel warmer again as we head into the weekend. that's it. head to our website to find out more
7:00 am
about the exhibition chronicling the experiences of the windrush generation. we're back in half an hour. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today. another interest rate rise is on the cards after inflation remains stubbornly high. yes, this will be the 13th time in a row the bank has hiked the cost of borrowing. i'll be looking at the further financial pain for households, and whether that's really necessary to bring down the high cost of living. on a critical day in the search for the missing titanic sub, the us coast guard says it's still a rescue mission. in search and rescue you always have hope. that's why we're doing what we do.
7:01 am
preparations well under way here at trent bridge with the start women's ashes just four hours away. much like the men's series, england have promised to deliver something special against australia in front of record crowds in the opening test match. and also on breakfast, what is in their name? quite a lot, actually if you are the giant mechanical bull restored to its former glory after being restored by the public last year after the commonwealth games. now the public has chosen its name. we reveal what it is going to be after eight o'clock. plus, a few isolated but the downpours possible in central and eastern england today. for the vast majority are dry, sunny and warm day. full forecast on breakfast. good morning. it's thursday, the 22nd ofjune. the bank of england is expected to raise interest
7:02 am
rates again later today, as it tries to tackle rising prices. it comes after inflation remains much higher than expected, at 8.7% ben's here with the details. it is important for so many households. tell us about this announcement?— households. tell us about this announcement? yes, the bank of encland announcement? yes, the bank of england is— announcement? yes, the bank of england is in _ announcement? yes, the bank of england is in a — announcement? yes, the bank of england is in a tricky _ announcement? yes, the bank of england is in a tricky position. it i england is in a tricky position. it has to get a grip on inflation, the rising average prices we are all experiencing. the main tool it has to do that is to raise the base level of interest rate. that makes borrowing cost on mortgages, loans and credit cards a lot more expensive. as we have been finding out. the theory is that rising interest rates make it more expensive to borrow money, meaning people have less to spend, and so bringing down demand and therefore easing price rises. what's your name, please? but this brighton mortgage broker says people are already accepting extraordinary changes to the length of their terms to keep monthly costs down. lenders are coming up with different
7:03 am
ways of helping clients. they are looking at extending mortgage terms for a longer period of time. so, some lenders will go up to the age of 80. it's all lender specific. new analysis by age and region shows that people in their 20s and 30s are most affected by rising mortgage costs. they face a £300 to £360 a month hike. those in london and the south—east, where house prices and mortgages are the highest, face a bigger hit. people such as ewan, a management consultant, having to find an extra £a00 a month. i remember speaking to a friend of mine who, we bought roughly at the same time, and he locked into a five year mortgage. and i rememberwe both kind of laughed saying, oh, we'll see who ends up on the better end of the spectrum in a couple of years' time. he's the one laughing and i'm the one paying the price. eight out of ten mortgage customers hold a fixed rate mortgage. their monthly payments may not change immediately, but house buyers, or anyone
7:04 am
seeking to remortgage, face a sharp rise in repayments when they move onto a new deal. there is so much frustration about who to blame in some ways. so, the government is taking the flak for not controlling inflation, but say there are external factors. there is criticism of the bank of england is not being sympathetic to what people are feeling in terms of mortgage payments. but the bank of england, as an independent body, has a re—made. it has a job to keep inflation at 2%. many questioning whether that is achievable because so much pain has to be inflicted to borrowers?— so much pain has to be inflicted to borrowers? , ., ., ., .,' borrowers? yes, and how far off the tar: et borrowers? yes, and how far off the target inflation _ borrowers? yes, and how far off the target inflation is _ borrowers? yes, and how far off the target inflation is at _ borrowers? yes, and how far off the target inflation is at the _ borrowers? yes, and how far off the target inflation is at the moment. i target inflation is at the moment. inflation is still at 8.7%. it has been there for two months. not as high as it was over the winter but not coming down anywhere near as quickly as had been hoped. the bank
7:05 am
of england target for inflation is 2%. stilla of england target for inflation is 2%. still a long way to go to get there. to bring inflation down the theory is you need to encourage people to curb their spending and save more. you do that by raising interest rates. we are currently at a base rate of a.5%, already up from the rates of less than 1% of that we saw before 2022. the consensus is that rates today will rise again to a.7 5%, possibly 5%. there will be an impact, a negative impact, with those with variable or tracker mortgages, oranybody those with variable or tracker mortgages, or anybody looking to remortgage soon. it is a tough time for many. borrowing costs will make it even tougher. it is likely to get worse before things get better. quite a few people will be thinking there might well have to have conversations with their banks or their building societies if they are struggling. you are going to be speaking to one of those shortly?
7:06 am
yes, finding out what people can do if they are struggling. plenty of advice and support available on the cost of living page on the bbc website. search for bbc cost of living in your search engine. the us coastguard say it still has hope, as rescue teams enter a critical day in the search for the missing titanic sub. the original oxygen supply on board the vessel is due to run out today. more equipment is on its way tojoin the mission. 0ur north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports. everything possible is being used to try and find the missing submersible. these are the first images of the complicated international hunt unfolding in the atlantic ocean more than a00 miles from the coast. it has now entered its most critical day. the sub, which is the size of a minivan, needs to be found
7:07 am
before oxygen runs out for the men on board. but there is some hope — more noises have been heard. when you're in the middle of a search and rescue case, you always have hope. that's what we do what we do. with respect to the noises specifically, we don't know what they are, to be frank with you. the good news is, we are searching in the area where the noises were detected and we will continue to do so. at that depth, radio and radar signals will not work so the rescue operation has been dropping sonar buoys in the water. they either use passive detection — listening for sounds produced it's by propellers and machinery, which can also include the crew making noise — or what is called active detection, by bouncing the sonar ping off the surface of the vessel and listening for a returning echo. trapped inside are british citizens hamish harding, shahzada dawood and his teenage son suleman. shahzada is someone who has an uncommon zest for life. he has a real sense of adventure, he has a real sense of exploration, and he has a passion
7:08 am
for exploration. also on board is french veteran diver paul—henri nargeolet, and stockton rush, the head of the firm behind the expedition to the bottom of the sea. more vessels and equipment is arriving here to be sent out to assist with the international operation. 0fficials here still consider this a search and rescue mission, but there is less than half a day's worth of oxygen left inside the vessel, so there are fears this could turn from rescue to recovery. the head of the company that owns the polar prince, which launched the submersible over the weekend, has spoken for the first time since it went missing. we are very aware of the time sensitivity around this mission. 0ur crews and onshore team are experts in their fields and will continue to support this effort in every way they. we remain focused on contributing to the search for the titan crew and continue to hope they will be
7:09 am
located and brought home safely. but overall, the reality of what could happen is not lost on people here. as one expert put it, it's like trying to find a missing spaceship on the far side of the moon. even if the sub is found in time, rescuers then have to somehow get the men out to safety. nomia iqbal, bbc news. 0ur correspondent, jessica parker, joins us now from boston, where the rescue is being co—ordinated. early hours of the morning there. but there was organising the searches are very clear, they say is still a search and rescue operation? absolutely. i was at the press conference earlier with the us coast guard. there has been a lot of attention on oxygen supplies and estimates, and there are estimates, as to how much oxygen may be left.
7:10 am
and it is projection they could maybe run out of action in light of this morning local time. —— oxygen. the coastguard don't really seem to be talking in those terms, although they absolutely acknowledge that is a factor they have to take into consideration. they seem to be talking more about the next 2a is, the next a8 hours. they seem to be projecting the sense that they are very much treating this, 100% they said, as a search and rescue operation. it is interesting because the search is obviously still going on. they have not found the vessel. they have detected some noises under the water. they don't know what they are but they did persist over a couple of days. the hope is that might be the men banging on the side of the vessel to try and get attention, alert people as to where they are. we don't know if that is they are. we don't know if that is the case. they are investigating that area. more equipment is set to
7:11 am
arrive on the scene in the coming days. lots of resources are still being poured into that area. we entered some very crucial stages of this operation that is now pulling in the us navy, the canadian navy, a french vessel — 80 an international operation. jessica parkerjoining us from bostin where the rescue is being coordinated. 37 people have been injured, and two are still missing, after a large explosion in the centre of paris. the blast happened in a building that housed a design school. authorities say the cause of the blast has not yet been determined. a firefighter has gone missing while attempting to complete a charity swim across the english channel. iain hughes set off from dover with a support boat on tuesday before disappearing. a search involving military helicopters, as well as navy and police boats, has now been called off. 12 minutes past seven is the time. let's find out what is happening
7:12 am
with the weather. it is still warm. it is summer, i had forgotten. but it feels like summer now? 0h, it feels like summer now? oh, it does, completely. it took a bit grey area at glastonbury. just down the road on the coast blue skies overhead. really that his going to develop more widely across some inland areas where it is a little bit grey right now. another day of warm sunshine for the vast majority. we saw a few showers in the past few days. today showers likely in parts of central and eastern england. we have already got one or two light showers in parts of east and south yorkshire. they will fade away temporarily. a few showers at the far north of scotland. fewer than yesterday. most long spells of sunshine. an isolated shower cannot be ruled out. the vast majority will stay dry. the biggest exception in central and eastern england. the highest temperatures here, 2a to 28 degrees. the showers will be
7:13 am
slow—moving, potentially torrential and thundery. close to nottingham and thundery. close to nottingham and trent bridge as well. fingers crossed, they will avoid the cricket. they will certainly be very close by and they do form. this evening and overnight the showers will gradually fade. later on, after clear skies, cloud increases across ireland. 0utbreaks clear skies, cloud increases across ireland. outbreaks of rain and drizzle. spreading into western scotland, west wales. increasingly humid air to go with it, especially in the west. for most, a warm start to friday. it gets warmer through friday into saturday. whether france would bring rain or drizzle to northern and western areas on friday and the start of saturday, and there could be some storms around on sunday. a quick glimpse into the weekend forecast. still warm for many on saturday. rain or drizzle in the west. showers and thunderstorms are more likely on sunday. the heat last longer in the south—east corner. thank you. 1a minutes past seven.
7:14 am
let's go back to the lead story this morning. the expected news that interest rates are expected to rise once again. labour is urging the government to force banks to help those struggling with mortgage payments, as interest rates are expected to rise again today. the party say is will ease the crisis for homeowners if it comes into power. we're joined now by shadow chancellor, rachel reeves. good morning to you. good morning. ok, we good morning to you. good morning. 0k. we now — good morning to you. good morning. ok, we now there _ good morning to you. good morning. ok, we now there are _ good morning to you. good morning. ok, we now there are many - good morning to you. good morning. i ok, we now there are many concerned 0k, we now there are many concerned mortgage payers at the moment who are watching. what would you do to ease that concern, easily potential pain, if labourwas ease that concern, easily potential pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much. — pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much. naga- — pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much, naga. the _ pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much, naga. the key _ pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much, naga. the key thing i pain, if labour was in power? thanks very much, naga. the key thing is i very much, naga. the key thing is that people coming off mortgages, and there are about 1.5 million this year alone, are facing increases in their payments of almost £3000 a year on average. and so, we know this is causing huge financial
7:15 am
distress for people. we are setting out today a five—point plan of what government should do, what labour would be doing, to help people in the most serious financial distress, or at risk of losing their homes. that includes instructing banks that have a shoot offer interest only products, extending the term of a mortgage, halting repossession proceedings for six months to help people get their finances in order, and also, ensuring that when people come forward and ask for help it doesn't affect their credit rating, because that is a deterrent for many people seeking the help they do so desperately need. those are some of the things government could be doing right now to ensure people get the help they need to get through these really difficult times. the government _ really difficult times. the government has - really difficult times. the government has said i really difficult times. the government has said it i really difficult times. the government has said it doesn't want to intervene in commercial decisions for banks offering mortgages, but it has had these conversations already and urged them to do a couple of
7:16 am
things you mentioned. extending mortgages, or mortgage payment periods, if necessary, or moving to interest only mortgages. so the government is having these conversations?— government is having these conversations? many banks are already doing — conversations? many banks are already doing this. _ conversations? many banks are already doing this. many i conversations? many banks are i already doing this. many lenders are already doing this. many lenders are already doing this. without this instruction, and this was an instruction, and this was an instruction given to banks during covid, so there is a precedent, without this instruction the risk is that many people don't come forward because they are worried that alerting banks about their financial situation might make things worse. there is a risk without this instruction many people who desperately need help will fall through the night. that is something i am determined to do everything that i can to ensure that people get the support they need, which is why this instruction from the government notjust this instruction from the government not just turning this instruction from the government notjust turning their heads, but a clear instruction from the dove is absolutely essential now to give
7:17 am
people the help and reassurance they need. . people the help and reassurance they need. , , . ., ., people the help and reassurance they need. ,,.., ., , people the help and reassurance they need. ,, ., ,., need. this instruction would be to the financial _ need. this instruction would be to the financial conduct _ need. this instruction would be to the financial conduct authority i need. this instruction would be to | the financial conduct authority via government. the fca has said it has been working with lenders for many months to ensure they provide a tailored support, and this includes guiding firms to offer borrowers a range of difficulty —— of options in difficulties. they must also explain these options. it says anybody struggling to make mortgage payments should speak to the lenders. the fca is already doing the stuff you are instructed to do?— instructed to do? nobody doubts there are things _ instructed to do? nobody doubts there are things happening. it i there are things happening. it repossession has increased by 50% in the last quarter alone. and many people out worried about coming forward, and also, many people who are coming forward are not getting the access to these products, the interest only products, the extension of mortgage terms. this is about putting it on a more formal
7:18 am
footing. government could do that straightaway. it would give much needed support. the people we are talking about here are people who have saved up the deposit to buy a house, who have been making their monthly payments, they go out to work every day, often with young families, they are under the cosh, whether it is on rising food prices, rising energy bills, the cost of getting to work, that houses petrol or the train fare, and now come on top of all of that, they are seeing their mortgages, on average, if they are remortgaging this year, the mortgages go up by almost £3000 a year. this is the worst possible thing of the worst possible time and government need to do more to help people in the most serious financial distress today.— distress today. used to work in the bank of distress today. used to work in the itank of england — distress today. used to work in the bank of england as _ distress today. used to work in the bank of england as an _ distress today. used to work in the bank of england as an economist. l distress today. used to work in the i bank of england as an economist. do you believe the bank of should remain independent?— you believe the bank of should remain independent? yes, i do think the bank should _ remain independent? yes, i do think the bank should remain _ remain independent? yes, i do think| the bank should remain independent. just with that in mind, then what can a government to do when the bank of england has a remit of keeping
7:19 am
inflation to 2%, which may seem quite, almost impossible at this moment in time, but what can the government do if the bank of england is doing what it is doing to fulfil its remit, which is it counters what the government is trying to say in terms of, we're helping people paying mortgages? there are two factions here which can't be brought together, it seems?— factions here which can't be brought together, it seems? well, one of the reasons we — together, it seems? well, one of the reasons we are _ together, it seems? well, one of the reasons we are in _ together, it seems? well, one of the reasons we are in so _ together, it seems? well, one of the reasons we are in so many _ reasons we are in so many difficulties today is the undermining of independent economic institutions by the conservative party last year, whether that was undermining the most senior civil servants at the treasury and undermining the office of national responsibility, orthe undermining the office of national responsibility, or the independence of the bank of england. and along with the kamikaze mini budget last year, that did a huge amount to undermine confidence in the uk, pushing up borrowing costs. and so, i am absolutely clear that an
7:20 am
incoming labour government would respect those institutions and work with them to provide the economic fiscal and financial security that we need in this country. and economic and financial stability, that rock upon which all other economic policies will be built, will be the watchword for a labour government. $5 will be the watchword for a labour government-— will be the watchword for a labour rovernment. ~ , ., ., , , ., ., , government. as an observer, and as somebody used _ government. as an observer, and as somebody used to _ government. as an observer, and as somebody used to work _ government. as an observer, and as somebody used to work there, i government. as an observer, and as somebody used to work there, do i government. as an observer, and as. somebody used to work there, do you think the bank of england has embarked upon the correct strategy and in a timely fashion when it comes to interest rates to curb inflation? i comes to interest rates to curb inflation? ., ., ., ., _, inflation? i am not going to comment on the decisions _ inflation? i am not going to comment on the decisions by _ inflation? i am not going to comment on the decisions by the _ inflation? i am not going to comment on the decisions by the bank - inflation? i am not going to comment on the decisions by the bank of - on the decisions by the bank of england. that would undermine the independence of the bank of england. but you could comment on the impact it is having, couldn't you? it is a strategy many people are criticising.— strategy many people are criticisina. , criticising. the focus of somebody who wants to _ criticising. the focus of somebody who wants to be _ criticising. the focus of somebody who wants to be the _ criticising. the focus of somebody who wants to be the next - criticising. the focus of somebody i who wants to be the next chancellor of the exchequer should be on what government should do. and what government should do. and what government needs to do. that is about respecting economic institutions, a strong set of fiscal

7:29 am
night with close skies. temperatures dipping back to the mid—teens into tomorrow morning. tomorrow starting to feel more humid and it will cloud over through the afternoon, but it will stay dry and start to feel warmer again as we head into the weekend. that's it — head to our website to find out more bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. borrowers have been warned to expect another rise in interest rates, with the bank of england's announcement expected later today. ben's here with the details. this will affect people, if they haven't got a mortgage if their renters it will affect them because their landlords will be stretched as well. and if it doesn't affect them now may be a few months down the line when their mortgage deal ends.
7:30 am
the bank of england may seem a far off institution but the decisions they make on interest rates affect people and has an immediate impact for those on certain types of mortgage. let's speak now to richard fearon, chief executive of leeds building society. richard, if these rates go up once again, are you going to be passing that on immediately to your customers?— that on immediately to your customers? ~ ., ., , customers? well, we are a building society owned _ customers? well, we are a building society owned by — customers? well, we are a building society owned by our _ customers? well, we are a building society owned by our members i customers? well, we are a building society owned by our members so i customers? well, we are a building| society owned by our members so at times like these we stand by our members to support them. if rates go up—to—date they will have gone up 13 times and we've chosen not to pass them on on six occasions. today if rates go up, whether that's a quarter of a percent or half a percent we will not be putting up our standard variable rate but we will be passing on the rate increase to savers. , , will be passing on the rate increase to savers. ,, ., ., to savers. sale pass it on to savers _

arrangements or concessionary arrangements. we've got 80 people at leeds who support mortgage customers in the circumstances and i engage with them regularly and when you listen to some of those calls and hear the relief after we've been through individual conversations with members and what we can offer them, the relief is palpable. {line them, the relief is palpable. one measure some _ them, the relief is palpable. one measure some people are looking at is to extend the term of their mortgage, in some cases to be paying it until they are 80 in order to bring down the monthly payment. it's not a good idea?— not a good idea? well, i would sun est not a good idea? well, i would suggest that — not a good idea? well, i would suggest that if _ not a good idea? well, i would suggest that if people - not a good idea? well, i would suggest that if people are i not a good idea? well, i would i suggest that if people are worried about what this means, you should talk and seek advice from a market broker. brokers are working incredibly hard at the moment and they can look at all options. i had a couple of people talking amendment to go. if your mortgage is maturing in the next six months, brokers can
7:34 am
lock in the deal. that can really help. so, that is what i would say, seek advice from them if your mortgage is coming up to maturity but if you're struggling talk to your lender. but if you're struggling talk to your lender-— your lender. bigger picture question. _ your lender. bigger picture question, given _ your lender. bigger picture question, given that i your lender. bigger picture question, given that rates| your lender. bigger picture i question, given that rates are your lender. bigger picture - question, given that rates are going up question, given that rates are going up and they've gone up so sharply, many people are struggling, do you think we are heading for a housing market price crash? it’s think we are heading for a housing market price crash?— market price crash? it's always incredibly difficult _ market price crash? it's always incredibly difficult to _ market price crash? it's always incredibly difficult to predict i incredibly difficult to predict house prices. people get it wrong all of the time. the housing market has been resilient. yes, it's down 4% since the peak of last august. the key thing is inflation is a huge enemy, we have to get on top of inflation. if that happens, then money markets come down, mortgage rates will follow and that's one of

the queen's quarterfinals for a second time. norrie, who was a wimbledon semi—finalist last year, lost the first set to austrlian jordan thompson but recovered to win the match 4—6, 6—3 6—2. and frankie dettori says he "couldn't be happier" after eventually claiming a winner at his final royal ascot meeting yesterday. dettori — who is retiring later this year — took the queen's vase race on board the favourite gregory. dettori had three second place finishes on tuesday and was given a nine—day ban for careless riding, and said, he "thought the winner was never going to come". where the winnerfor where the winner for the women's ashes is going to come is anybody�*s guess. the way the series works we've got a test match, 3i—days and then three t20s. full points of the
7:42 am
test match, two points each for the others. if you win this test match it could go a long way to deciding the outcome of the series. studio: you can never underestimate the role of the weather. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. it looks beautiful there, really lovely summer morning. matt will know what the players can expect, exactly how it's going to affect the wicket and how the cloud will enjoy it. laughter how long have you got? it's going to be difficult today because while it's a lovely start and could stay lovely all day, it's that part of england where we could see some heavy and thundery showers during this afternoon. showing up on our chart here. it's a potential rather than a certainty. showers could form a cross nottingham and stay clear of the ground but that potential is
7:43 am
there. it's going to be pretty warm and humid as well. that warmth however, no where near the levels we've seen over the last 24 hours in parts of southern europe. in corsica in the south of the island, we saw a new national record for corsica. that's a whole1.5 degree higher than they've ever recorded in corsica injune before. the deeper the reds, the higher above normal they are. notice how things turn fishy here into the weekend but for us temperatures climbing for a time this weekend before we turn to something akin to normal. starting with today first, a day of warm sunshine for many but they showers are possible across parts of central and eastern england. most places
7:44 am
will stay dry. stand like here and there. a lot of that will depart. isolated showers through parts of east yorkshire. the old one will crop up across scotland. no where nearas crop up across scotland. no where near as many as many as we've seen three recent days. in central and eastern england will have some slow moving, thundery downpours. temperature is 24—28. temperature is a bit more comfortable to the north and west. tonight will be another humid night. showers and thunderstorms in the evening across central and eastern parts will gradually fade away. by dawn tomorrow, outbreaks of rain across ireland, spreading into western scotland and west and wales. humidity levels. to be ramping up for friday. with lots of cloud, outbreaks of rain or drizzle. the odd heavier burst of rain in western parts. many eastern areas will stay dry. best of the sunshine on friday.
7:45 am
for south—east of england and shetland. more cloud around and outbreaks of rain but a very humid day. very, very warm night to take us into saturday. saturday, lots of cloud around, a few showers here and there. especially in the west where it will start off damp and drizzling. the afternoon looking sunnier on saturday and temperatures in the high 20s, may be late 30s to the south—east corner. through sunday thunderstorms pushing east and that humid air will be replaced by something a bit fresher. it means for glastonbury sunday could be the day for one or two showers. studio: perfectly fitting in between the two elements. first we have now glastonbury. tents have been pitched and the flags are flying high — glastonbury is officially underway. our entertainment corrrespondent colin paterson has been helping some of the early arrivals settle in. earlier on there were robots that

good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today. another interest rate rise is on the cards after inflation remains stubbornly high. yes, this will be the 13th time in a row the bank has hiked the cost of borrowing. i'll be looking at the further financial pain for households and whether that's really necessary to bring down the high cost of living. on a critical day in the search for the missing titanic sub, the us coast guard says it's still a rescue mission. this is the spot where 75 years ago today hundreds of people from the caribbean arrived to start a new life in the uk and rebuild this
7:59 am
economy that was devastated by war. here you can see the atmosphere is already livening up. there are celebrations at the port to this amazing occasion. and it should be dried out today with some sunshine. there will be some thundery showers. especially in central and eastern parts of england. details on breakfast. good morning. it's thursday, the 22nd ofjune. the bank of england is expected to raise interest rates again later today, as it tries to tackle rising prices. it comes after inflation remains much higher than expected, at 8.7%. ben's here with the details. this is going to matterfor so many households. it has a ripple effect as well. talk us through the announcement today?- as well. talk us through the announcement today? as well. talk us through the announcement toda ? , ., , , ., announcement today? yes, as you say, this affects millions _ announcement today? yes, as you say, this affects millions of _ announcement today? yes, as you say, this affects millions of people. - announcement today? yes, as you say, this affects millions of people. the i this affects millions of people. the bank of england is in a really
8:00 am
difficult position because it has got to get a grip on inflation, those rising average price as we speak about so often that are causing pain for so many people. the main tool the central bank has to deal with that, to try and curb those price increases, is to raise the base level of interest rates. of course, in the short term that makes borrowing costs a lot more expensive for people with mortgages and loans, as i have been finding out. the theory is that rising interest rates make it more expensive to borrow money, meaning people have less to spend, and so bringing down demand and therefore easing price rises. what's your name, please? but this brighton mortgage broker says people are already accepting extraordinary changes to the length of their terms to keep monthly costs down. lenders are coming up with different ways of helping clients. they are looking at extending mortgage terms for a longer period of time. so, some lenders will go up to the age of 80. it's all lender specific. the theory is that rising interest rates make it more expensive
8:01 am
new analysis by age and region shows that people in their 20s and 30s are most affected by rising mortgage costs. they face a £300 to £360 a month hike. those in london and the south—east, where house prices and mortgages are the highest, face a bigger hit. people such as ewan, a management consultant, having to find an extra £400 a month. i remember speaking to a friend of mine who, we bought roughly at the same time, and he locked into a five year mortgage. and i rememberwe both kind of laughed saying, oh, we'll see who ends up on the better end of the spectrum in a couple of years' time. he's the one laughing and i'm the one paying the price. eight out of ten mortgage customers hold a fixed rate mortgage. their monthly payments may not change immediately, but house buyers, or anyone seeking to remortgage, face a sharp rise in repayments when they move onto a new deal. you may be wondering why the bank of england is doing this. of course,
8:02 am
inflation is at 8.7%. it has been there for two months. not as high as it was over the winter, but it is not coming down anywhere near as quickly as the bank would have hoped. the target for the central bank is to see inflation at 2%. we are still a long way off. to bring inflation down theories you need people to curb their spending and start saving. you do that by raising interest rates. we are currently at a base rate of a.5%. that is up from the rates of less than i% we saw before 2022. the consensus is, the thinking is, that rates will rise again today to a.75%, possibly 5%. potentially good news if you have savings, assuming the bank has passed that on quickly, but there will be a negative impact for anybody with a variable, tracker mortgage, oranybody anybody with a variable, tracker mortgage, or anybody looking to remortgage soon. it is tough and it will get tougher before it gets better. plenty of advice and support

canadian navy, the private sector, there is a french vessel on the scene as well with a very sophisticated underwater robot that could potentially be deployed. it has become an international operation. what they say is they also have continuous air cover because they are notjust also have continuous air cover because they are not just trying also have continuous air cover because they are notjust trying to listen underwater and look underwater for potential signs of the title the submarine, which as many will remember, went missing on sunday during a dive down to the titanic wreck, but they are also trying to analyse these sounds, these noises, picked up by the solar technology. —— sonar technology. these noises, picked up by the solar technology. —— sonartechnology. it is hoped that could be the man against —— on the submarine knocking against —— on the submarine knocking against the hull. they are very clear they don't know what does science signify. but it does all add to that sense of urgency, as you say. here is more with no mere
8:05 am
cabal. everything possible is being used to try and find the missing submersible. these are the first images of the complicated international hunt unfolding in the atlantic ocean, more than 400 miles from the coast. it's now entered its most critical day. the sub, which is the size of a minivan, needs to be found before oxygen runs out for the men on board. but there is some hope. more noises have been heard. when you're in the middle of a search and rescue case, you always have hope. that's why we're doing what we do. with respect to the noises specifically, we don't know what they are, to be frank with you. 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. at that depth radio and radar signals won't work. so the rescue operation has been dropping sonobuoys in the water. they either use passive detection — that's listening for sounds produced by propellers and machinery, which could also include the crew making noise — or what's called active detection, by bouncing a sonar ping off the surface of the vessel
8:06 am
and listening for a returning echo. trapped inside are british citizens hamish harding, shahzada dawood and his teenage son suleman. shahzada is someone who's got an uncommon zest for life. he has a real sense of adventure. he has a real sense of exploration. in fact, he has a passion for exploration. also on board is a french veteran diver, paul—henry nargeolet, and stockton rush, the head of the firm behind the expedition to the bottom of the sea. more vessels and more equipment is arriving here to be sent all the way out to sea to assist with the international operation. officials here still consider this a search and rescue mission, but there's less than half a day's worth of oxygen left inside that vessel. and so there are fears this could turn from rescue to recovery.
8:07 am
the head of the company that owns the polar prince, which launched the submersible over the weekend, has spoken for the first time since it went missing. we are very aware of the time sensitivity around this mission. our crews and onshore team are experts in their fields, and we'll continue to support this effort in every way we can. we remain focused on contributing to the search for the titan crew and continue to hold out hope that they will be located and brought home safely. but overall, the reality of what could happen isn't lost on people here. as one expert put it, it's like trying to find a missing spaceship on the far side of the moon. even if the sub is found in time, rescuers then have to somehow get the men out to safety. nomia iqbal, bbc news st john's in newfoundland. just to bring you some breaking

news. it looks like a piece of equipment is now being sent over from the channel islands by a company called magellan. this is a remotely operated vehicle. it is called juliet. it is a submarine of its own. —— submersible. it recently produced 3d view the entire titanic. we did news reports of this at the time. once it leaves the island of jersey we are told it will take about 50 to 60 hours to get to the site, so it is going to take some time. it is a very remote area in the north atlantic. the submersible had been ready for dispatch since monday evening but had been awaiting transportation. it does now look like it is on route.— transportation. it does now look like it is on route. jessica parker there in boston. _ 37 people have been injured, and two people are still missing, after a large explosion in the centre of paris. the blast happened in a building

8:10 am
questions over whether there might still not be missing people. one person reported missing. they are ploughing through the remains and the debris of this building, an old building in the heart of medieval, ancient, historic paris, to see if a person is still there. hopefully that person is simply away somewhere and hasn't reported in. but they need to keep checking. they are taking neighbouring buildings to say they are stable. the root of it all or most certainly is gas, not terrorism, but gas. it raises questions about the state of the gas network in paris as a whole. thank ou. ten network in paris as a whole. thank you. ten minutes _ network in paris as a whole. thank you. ten minutes past _ network in paris as a whole. thank you. ten minutes past eight. it i network in paris as a whole. thank| you. ten minutes past eight. it was raining in paris. not here at the moment. we have got away with quite a lot. the showers have come, but it is still lovely and warm? yeah, and for many that is going to be the case today. misty for some this morning. this was the view in
8:11 am
devon a short time ago. that cloud is breaking up. lots of sunshine. a few showers. scotland and northern ireland have seen most of them in recent days. central and eastern england is where we are more likely to catch a shark today, but even then should stay mostly dry. showers in parts of east yorkshire, orkney and shetland. some showers in scotland or northern ireland, wales. it is, central and eastern england where we are most to see them. this is where the most humid of the air is. 2a to 28 degrees. this afternoon some slow moving, potentially torrential downpours. get caught onto that and of could cause some disruption. some very close to nottingham and trent bridge. you can see big gaps in between. a lot will still stay dry. the showers are fading as we go to this evening as well. tonight, cast your eyes to the west because there are changes. lots
8:12 am
of cloud, rain or drizzle across ireland, western scotland in western wales by tomorrow morning. some humid area, —— some humid air. more cloud around tomorrow. these weather fronts will be sitting around into saturday. it is sunday we could see some heavy rain pushed its way in from the west. a quick peek at the weekend forecast. it does look like saturday is still fine, is much cloudier than today. sunday, some stormy rain clouds around, although the south—east corner will stay warmest for the longest. thank you. its been 75 years since hundreds of people from the caribbean disembarked the empire windrush to build a new life in the uk. our community affairs correspondent, ashitha nagesh, is at tilbury docks in essex this morning, where the anniversary is being marked. 75 years on, many people wanting to

8:14 am
the ship brought hundreds of passengers from the caribbean to fill post—war labour shortages in the uk. among them were nurses, engineers and a vast number of british military veterans. 75 years ago, those who took these first steps at the port of tilbury had hopes of prosperity and a new life, not just for themselves, but for generations to come. tucked away in a croydon shopping centre is a recreation of that new life in a classic windrush home. you know, sir, it's... it takes these women decades back to those early days in the uk, settling in and getting to grips with a new culture and climate. everything was cold. i came in april 1962 - and ijust yearned for home. there is a book by the bbc called going to britain and the first picture in that book is me, aged three everything was cold. i came in april 1962 - and ijust yearned for home. there is a book by the bbc called going to britain and the first picture in that
8:15 am
book is me, aged three and a half, at my my nanny�*s and it's got me in my little duffle coat, my hat, and it says underneath, the caption is "dressed for the cold." i remember initially before i did nursing, i applied for a job in the west end, not knowing anything about racism. i went for the interview and the lady put me in a room and she never came back to me. i sat there for about six hours and then the shop was closing and i left. my first day at school, the teacher asked my name and i told her all the different names i had, because injamaica you'd have a pet name, then you'd have another name, what my dad called me and whatever, and i put reed on the end because that's my surname. and the teacher said, "no, dear, go home and ask your mother what your name is." so that was my start. although today is a day of celebration and fond memories, for some, it is a reminder of injustices that they've had to endure.
8:16 am
it has very much mixed feelings, because for one, it took so many years for some recognition of some sort, it's not there yet, of what the windrush generation did. johnny samuels is one of thousands of people affected by the windrush scandal, which saw people who had the legal right to live and work here wrongly deported or detained because they weren't given proof of status by the home office. 2015, i received a deportation letter. that was shocking, that was hurtful, painful, and my family wasn't. .. well, you know, everybody was very sad. so what would your message to the home office be? people are dying. folks from the windrush era are dying who have made claims and are waiting. in a statement, the home office told the bbc it is committed to righting the wrongs
8:17 am
of windrush and that it has paid or offered more than £75 million in compensation, but that it knows there is still more to do. despite what this generation has gone through, there's still an enduring pride in what they've built here. coming from the different islands, we have done a lot in this country. i would say... as i normally say, we have put the great in britain. we have worked hard to put this legacy forward. that is a mark that our children can look back and say, "well, our parents did that." ashitha nagesh, bbc news. solam so i am here with a right, the artist behind this gorgeous installation. —— eve wright. this is the darker people first took their

been speaking about their stories and first hand accounts, which now — some 75 years later — have been written into a children's book. what people think about now is the scandal. although what's happened there is appalling, what's happened to the older generation. but i wanted young children to understand what contribution my parents made — because i look at my parents and their generation as pioneers. 100 paddleboarders are expected to head along the river thames from kew to richmond later today — to help clear up litter and plastics. last time the event was organised was before the pandemic. thames21 and the port of london authority say they remove at least 200 tonnes of waste from the river each year, much of it single—use plastic. let's take a look at the tube now. there's a good service on the tube this morning. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. temperatures will be rising

8:33 am
let's show you this graph — it demonstrates what's been going. you can see interest rates stayed below 1% for well over a decade. then you can see the steady increments. from 0.25% in december 2021. we find ourselves now at 4.5% and the general consensus is another rate rise today to 4.75% possibly even 5% according to some economists. that's because inflation — the rate at which prices are rising — is still way above the bank's target of 2%. putting up interest rates is pretty much the only tool the bank has to bring those prices down. but if you've got a mortgage — or you're looking for one — it's clearly a worrying time. 1.4 million people on tracker and variable rate deals will see an almost immediate increase in their monthly payments. and this week the average two—yearfixed mortgage deal has gone above 6%. how much more you pay per month,
8:34 am
as a result of this, depends on how much you're borrowing and how long you've got left to pay your mortgage. as an example — if you've got £250,000 left to pay and 25 years remaining, you'd be looking at paying around £400 more per month. our correspondent marc ashdown has been to meet three people facing a big rise in their housing costs. rebecca from greater manchester, craig in cambridgeshire, and rose who lives in hampshire. just three homeowners out of hundreds of thousands of people facing a huge rise in their mortgage costs over the coming months. at this moment in time, at the end ofjune, i will make my final payment of £434 when my current deal ends, and thereafter i have been told to expect my payments will be over £1,800. i'm currently paying £560 a month. at the end ofjuly, it will go on to variable and it will go
8:35 am
up to £1,200 a month. our mortgage has gone up by over £2,200 a year. i it's a huge impact on our- expenditure and has an impact on the family as a whole. rose has already been cutting costs on day—to—day activities and even some essentials to try and cope. the impacts are huge. so i am having to cut down on how much i spend a week on food. i'm having to plan my meals that i cook for the children. i'm trying to cut down on day trips because of the cost of fuel going up, as well. i'm trying to... i'm also currently looking at getting another part—time job alongside my currentjob in order to bring in more money to pay for the bills. rebecca, too, has already had to cut back on her outgoings after her husband —
8:36 am
who was the main breadwinner — passed away. i've been doing that for the last two years because i've obviously had to adapt to a new life that has to happen on the income i get. i'd struggle to make more cutbacks than i do, to be honest. but i will have to look again. want a bit more? yeah! craig and his family are trying to be creative to save money. my wife's working nights and i'm working days so that _ reduces childcare costs. we are cutting down- on things such as takeaways. we've looked at all the tv providers to reduce those fees as well. - these increasing costs are also taking their toll on people's well—being. it's having an effect on my mental wellbeing because i am stressed with everything going on and the cost of everything. obviously that's having a knock on effect on my children's wellbeing as well. i'd just like some consideration
8:37 am
to people who just cannot afford what they are now expecting them to pay. i can't literally print money. ideally, what i would like is a proposal to manage what i can do for certain in the next few months. if i cannot resolve matters anyway, the house will have to be sold. i time is really important because, i you know, they want time with mum and dad together and to not be able i to do things that we used to do i or as often as we used to do, and having that carpet swept| from under your feet, you know, it's a really disheartening thing i especially for the children, _ because they don't understand what's going on in the world. with yet another rise in interest rates looming, there will be difficult decisions for families across the uk.

and you can find more information, support and advice on the bbc�*s cost of living web page. just search for "bbc cost of living". we get the decision on interest rates up to midday today and as i think was very clear from the report, it seems a far off institution but the decisions it makes have a very real and direct impact on people's everyday lives. maybe you're pausing or breathing a sigh of calm after the ashes and all that drama. it sigh of calm after the ashes and all that drama-— that drama. it was fabulous but that's what _ that drama. it was fabulous but that's what you _ that drama. it was fabulous but that's what you want _ that drama. it was fabulous but that's what you want from i that drama. it was fabulous but that's what you want from big i that's what you want from big events. you want the drama. straightaway we have the women's ashes which is starting right now.
8:39 am
what a grand setting. the men's test match delivered everything you could probably want from cricket. barr an england victory perhaps. if it's captured imagination of the country what have the women got to offer? head coach has promised entertainment. they've sold 80,000 tickets and we are expecting around 7000 here at trent bridge for the first day of the test match and heather knight says they want to deliver cricket that the public want to come and watch so it should be very exciting. they are facing one of the toughest sides in world sport. one of the greatest teams in sporting history.
8:40 am
australia have struck gold! seven—time world cup champions, they've lifted the t20 world cup on six occasions — and last summer they claimed commonwealth gold. australia start these ashes as massive favourites. so how do you beat an unbeatable team? they've been setting the standards and they're pushing us to be better. but i think the opportunity to do something really special this summer is really exciting us. we feel like we're going to have to try and get the crowd on our side as well. we're going to try and maximise home advantage as much as we can. this is a multiformat series, with three t20s and three one—day matches, all worth two points each. but it all starts here at trent bridge — with a test match which is worth four points. england haven't won the ashes since 2014. australia are understandably confident. i can't wait for the atmosphere. what an amazing time to be a female athlete over here in the uk, with the support that i can see and i can feel. so, for us as an aussie group, we are relishing that and excited to be here in the contest. so far, 80,000 tickets have been sold across the series,
8:41 am
with matches being played in cricket's most prestigious grounds — including lords and the oval. fans this summer have one of sport's greatest contests to look forward to. england very much the underdogs for this series but there may be chink of light. australian captain is missing for the series. a lot has been made about lauren phila, it will be interesting to see what she can do. the wicket is looking green so it could be a good one to bolan. onto tennis and two tournaments in the uk to keep an eye on as we build up to wimbledon in a few weeks' time. no brits in action at queen's today but the world number two carlos alcaraz plays — he's on court against the czechjiri lehecka. they're looking to join british number one cameron norrie
8:42 am
in the quarterfinals. norrie, who was a wimbledon semi—finalist last year, beat austrlian jordan thompson to get there. he lost the first set but recovered to win the match 4—6 6—3 6—2. and harriet dart will find out her quarterfinal opponent at birmingham later. she's through after beating the fifth seed from ukraine anhelina kalinana in three sets. dart is one of five british women to be given a wild card entry for wimbledon which starts a week on monday. and frankie dettori said he couldnt be happier after picking up a win at his final royal ascot. dettori — who is retiring later this year — took the queen's vase race on board the favourite gregory and celebrated with his usual flying dismount. dettori had three second place finishes on tuesday and said he thought the winner was never going to come. where the winner in the ashes is going to come from we will wait and
