by the sun newspaper, to be upset by the corporation's latest response. behaviour on may 19th, according to the sun. the paper says the family told it "no—one from the corporation rang them for a proper interview" after that initial complaint. the bbc�*s director—general, tim davie, has said allegations "of a different nature" were put to the corporation last thursday, 6th may. on friday, the sun published claims that the presenter had paid the teenager £35,000 — or about $45,000 — for sexually explicit photos. on sunday, the bbc confirmed that a presenter had been suspended and that the corporation was in touch with police.

just to remind viewers about our coverage of this story — bbc news has a remit to report impartially on the wider corporation. we will have more on this story later. a teacher is in hospital with suspected stab wounds and a teenage boy in police custody following an incident at tewkesbury school. the school has been placed into lockdown. its head teacher described the incident as "serious" and has reassured parents that all pupils were safe and well. 0ur bbc radio gloucestershire reporter edwad rowe is in tewkesbury and sent us this update. i am in dobie�*s car park, which is just about a ten minute walk from from the school itself, dobbies car park garden centre.

lots of parents have been asked to come here. lots of parents are just standing behind me waiting for updates from police. as far as we can tell, an adult was taken to hospital with suspected stab wounds following this incident at tewkesbury school. i am in dobie�*s car park, which is just about a ten minute it happened around 9:00 this morning with a report that a pupil had stabbed the teacher and a teenage boy has been arrested in connection with this incident. as a result of that, the around approximately 2,000 or so children who are in the school currently in lockdown and have been told to remain in their classrooms. let's get more now on presidentjoe biden�*s visit to london ahead of this week's nato summit. he's been meeting prime minister rishi sunak in downing street and he said that the relationship between the two countries was "rock solid". mr biden is now with king charles at windsor castle, after skipping his coronation in may in line with the longstanding practice of us presidents.

a beverage company launched by two high—profile influencers is facing scrutiny from lawmakers and health experts over the high levels of caffeine in one of its products. us senator chuck schumer called on the food and drug administration to investigate prime, claiming its energy drink is being marketed to children and poses a risk to their health. courtney bembridge has more from the newsroom. prime is a sports drink owned partially by youtube influencers logan paul and ksi. it's hugely popular amongst kids and these are images from a london supermarket last year. you can see people rushing to try to buy the drink when it first went on sale and there were even limits about how many bottles each customer could buy. there's no caffeine in this drink, but not long after it was launched another product came out looking quite similar.

now these are the two products side by side. this is the hydration drink we were talking about. this one, as you can see by the label down here, is an energy drink. but us senator chuck schumer says it is near impossible for the average consumer to be able to tell the difference. he says that that's putting children at risk. this is what he said. we're here today to issue a public warning to parents about their kids drinking this drink called prime and, two, we're here to ask the fda to step in and investigate prime, which is one of the summer's hottest beverage sensations for kids. a lot of parents may never heard of it, but their kids have because prime is engaged in a vast advertising campaign aimed at kids, even though kids aren't supposed to drink a drink with this much caffeine. let's have a look at the amount of caffeine we're talking about. so, in a can of prime there's about 200 milligrams of caffeine. compare that to one of its main rivals, red bull, and you can see that it's got less than half the amount, about 80 milligrams,

albeit in a smaller can. if we compare that to a can of coca cola, you can see that it is significantly lower. there's more than six times the amount of caffeine in a can of prime compared to a can of coke. well, the company has defended its product and said that it contains a label saying it shouldn't be consumed by anyone under the age of 18, but there are still calls for it to be further regulated. let's get more now on presidentjoe biden�*s visit to london ahead of the nato summit in lithuania. he said the relationship between the us and the relationship between the us and the uk was rock—solid. he is now with king charles at windsor castle.

i wonder if we could start off with your reflections on the timing of this visit. is there anything we can take away from that? i this visit. is there anything we can take away from that?— take away from that? i think the timin: take away from that? i think the timing was _ take away from that? i think the timing was important _ take away from that? i think the timing was important for - take away from that? i think the timing was important for to - take away from that? i think the - timing was important for to medical reasons. it gavejoe biden and rishi sunak the chance to put the friction that brexit is caused between the two countries in the rear—view mirror. joe biden really framed that this morning when he described the relationship is rock—solid. that is not the kind of language we have heard from joe biden before and i think that was important. i think what happened privately is privately

more important in the run—up to the nato summit, it really gave the cheerleaders to work out any remaining differences on the question of ukraine's bid for nato membership. i know the early reporting as there was a rift, but number ten has now come out and said there is no daylight between us. i think what they probably came up with this uncommon language to help frame the discussion over ukraine starting tomorrow and carrying on until wednesday. something that will point to a communique that will ultimately point to membership in nato for ukraine, but that. short of a game plan or a strategy for getting there in the near term. just

getting there in the near term. the strategy, before we discuss the strategy, professor, before we discuss the strategy, professc in the rear—view mirror, they have had meetings, had discussions five times before. do you think that there was tension still existed up to last night were this morning? i still existed up to last night were this morning?— still existed up to last night were this mornin: ? ~ , ., , , this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting _ this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting a _ this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting a month _ this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting a month or - this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting a month or so - this morning? i think probably their earlier meeting a month or so ago | earlier meeting a month or so ago went a long way to resolving those tensions. i think most of this stuff came up in may whenjoe biden travelled here and to northern ireland and ireland to 25th ireland and ireland to mark the 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement and i think those post—brexit tensions in the air post—brexit tensions hung in the air at that point in time and that is why there was so much concern about the flags on his car and so forth. i think the context of the meeting today was quite different. they are meeting at concerns,

concerning ukraine in particular, are front summit is an important leaders. this summit is an important meeting, the one that will leaders. this summit is an important meeting, the on- will— leaders. this summit is an important meeting itself, in- will— leaders. this summit is an important meeting itself, he vet’s will leaders. this summit is an important meeting itself, he said will leaders. this summit is an important meeting itself, he said m was a leaders. this summit is an important meeting its! choreograph was a leaders. this summit is an important meeting its! choreograph what they for them to choreograph what they will say very closely. 0ne for them to choreograph what they will say very closely. one man to will be listening very closely as to what is said regarding support for ukraine, but also membership, any future promises on membership to nato. we know future promises on membership to nato. we knoi matter, but then has sat on the matter, but then there is also the of president there is also the issue of president erdogan and turkey, there is also the issue of president erdogan that urkey, as . , there is also the issue of president erdogan that is key, as . , there is also the issue of president erdogan that is a ey, as . , there is also the issue of president erdogan that is a separate . , there is also the issue of president erdogan that is a separate issue fast—track to fa already to fa already knew that for sweden. we already knew that there will be a meeting on the side

onto alternative flights. finally, more than 40,000 swifties joined an online queue earlier to try and secure one of the first batch of tickets for taylor swift's 2024 eras uk tour. only those fans who had pre—ordered tayalor�*s latest album midnights were given early access to tickets for her gigs in london and edinburgh. tickets go on sale to the general public next monday. now it's time for a look at the weather with helen willetts. hello. good afternoon. with showers or longer spells of rain, very few places escaping those showers, but there will be some sunshine, as well, as we've already seen today and as we'll continue to see in some areas. it's really been quite wet for wales, for example, already this morning.

further south and east of that it is largely dry and northern england. it's already heavy rain across parts of northern ireland, some thunderstorms around here. into southern scotland, as well. the north of scotland, some sunny spells and showers. it should, to the south and east of that band of rain, stay mostly dry, so, hopefully, a mostly full day's play at wimbledon, with just the outside chance of a shower. but come this evening, then the cloud does tend to roll in. further north, it's a scattering of showers, and some heavy showers way into the north—east of scotland. it's clearly going to be quite a muggy night further south will linger into tuesday rush. so, yes, quite a wet start potentially across east anglia, a little while to clear.

once it does so, i think a slightly fresher day. we're starting to pull the winds in from the north and west. and overnight will tend to ease a little bit across southern areas into tomorrow. that change in wind direction notable in the north. still heavy frequent showers and some of them with rumbles of thunder, but slightly fresher air that's coming around our area of low pressure. we shift that wind direction down to a north—westerly. but look at those heavy showers — slow moving showers, close to that area of low pressure. there could be some local flooding as a result of that on the roads with spraying standing water. if anything, thursday may be a little less showery with a brief ridge of high pressure coming in, but by friday we've got these next moving in, so the unsettled picture continues notjust into friday, but into next weekend, as well.

live from london, this is bbc news. president biden is at windsor castle for talks with king charles.
