good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and rachel burden. our headlines today... the first asylum seekers are expected to board the bibby stockholm barge in dorset today, after a delay due to health and safety warnings. and these are live pictures from portland harbour this morning — the barge is expected to welcome 50 men initially. we'll be live there throughout the programme. tougher fines for businesses and landlords, who knowingly support illegal migrants — the home office hopes the move will deter small boats crossing the channel. giving former department store is virtually a whole new lease of life. i am at this form at debenhams in

our top story. the first asylum seekers to be housed on board a barge in dorset, are expected to arrive today. the bibby stockholm will take up to 500 men over the next 18 months, while their claims are assessed. the plan is part of the government's effort to reduce the cost of accommodating migrants but it's prompted safety concerns and protests from local people, as our west of england correspondent dan johnson reports. three weeks after reaching portland, the bibby stockholm looks like it's about to take up its role, as a home for asylum seekers and a display of a tougher approach to immigration. this is part of the government's insistence on reducing hotel bills, currently around £6 million a day, and deterring migrants from crossing the channel. it's controversial. concerns about fire safety saw it labelled a death trap, but it seems everything may now be in place. we have seen a letter sent to asylum seekers, saying they'll be moved here later today. now, that did happen twice last week and then there were delays, but this is the first time a specific date's been mentioned. and the home office is under pressure now to make this work.

when i was shown around, officials emphasised it was safe and clean, but basic and functional. in the past, offshore workers have stayed here and other countries have used it for asylum seekers. but fitting bunk beds has doubled its capacity and heightened concerns about inhumane, unsafe conditions. no hate, no fear. refugees are welcome here! broader opposition has followed local protests about the impact on this community and its public services. many still feel this is the wrong thing in the wrong place. but it's become a test of whether the government can turn its ideas, its plans and rhetoric over immigration into real, workable solutions. danjohnson, bbc news, portland. our reporter steve humphrey is at portland harbour this morning. steve, the barge has already been there for three weeks but it looks like it will finally become operational today?

yes, it has taken a long time. that very controversial asylum barge is behind me here. it is the grey and red three story sort of building in the docks. hugely controversial all the docks. hugely controversial all the way through, ever since it was first announced. the big idea is the barge will house just over 500 asylum seekers. the news today as we are expecting their first 50 or so asylum seekers to go on board. it has been an awful long time coming. the local community, the local council, dorset council, weren't given any say whatsoever in the decision to put the barge here in portland port. we have seen, as dan johnson said in his piece, we have seen a lot of protests from people who basically had said this is the

wrong place to put this barge for 500 male asylum seekers. people worried about the impact on local services and also the impact on the local tourism industry. as you mentioned, the barge itself arrived some three weeks ago onjuly the 18th. we had been expecting asylum seekers to go on board quite rapidly after that. then there were safety concerns raised, fire safety concerns raised, fire safety concerns was that they had to work out their working practices for the staff who had been on and off the barge. also the fire brigades union said they saw it as a potential death trap. the immigration minister has actually said robertjenrick, in an interview, i can absolutely assure you it is a safe facility. the government wants to drive it forward. they say there are over 50,000 asylum seekers in the hotel at the moment and they are costing the british taxpayer over £6 million

a day. we are expecting their first asylum seekers on the barge today in portland. from portland harbour, back to you. we did ask to speak to a home office minister, but they were unable to accommodate an interview with bbc breakfast this morning. that is our main story. migration top of the agenda in westminster. fines for businesses and landlords, who knowingly support illegal migrants, will triple under new rules announced by the government. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent nick eardley. what is the government saying? we will what is the government saying? - will hear a lot about this this week. notjust bibby stockholm but the government talking up its plans to try to crack down on what it calls the business models of people smugglers. one thing ministers are doing is announcing a significant increase in the fines you will get

if you give a job to someone who has arrived illegally in the uk all you allow them to rent a property you own. this has not been changed since 2014. that is the last time the levels of these fines were set and they are going to triple. it is going to mean quite significant fines. £60,000 you could be fined for employing an illegal worker. that is for repeat offences. likewise £5,000 per lodger if you allow someone to rent a property. the argument we are hearing from ministers is these are really significant offences. because of that the levels of fines should be increased to mirror how seriously the government takes this issue. there is that. there is also talk this morning about the rwanda scheme as well. it is bogged down in the

courts. the government official line is they are confident they can make the plan to send asylum seekers to rwanda work. there is nervousness at the top of government as well. back in the news, discussion of a potential plan b, other countries the uk could do deals with, including ascension island, the island in the middle of the ocean off africa. it has been talked about in the past, it is extremely remote. chatting with people about it in the past in the government, there is a lot of scepticism that idea will ever take half of the ground. the main thing this morning as the government wants to persuade us all it is prepared to take some pretty radical steps to make or work. the argument from opposition parties is there has not been proper work done in the few years. the backlog has left to be far too big.

police are investigating the death of a 12—year—old boy, who was killed in a hit—and—run crash on a motorway in west yorkshire. the child was struck by a vehicle on the m62 shortly before 10pm on saturday. police say he was trying to make his way from the central reservation to the hard shoulder. a 36—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing, or allowing the death of a child. there will be more disruption on the rail network this week, as members of the aslef union begin another week—long ban on overtime, in an ongoing dispute over pay. 15 rail operating companies will be affected and hundreds of services could be cancelled. a building known as britain's wonkiest pub has been destroyed by fire. the derelict building of the 18th century crooked house near dudley was completely gutted on saturday night. an investigation has been launched into the cause of the blaze. england play nigeria this morning for a place in the quarterfinals of the women 5 world cup. our sports correspondent

jane dougall is in brisbane. for the lionesses, this is it. it is do or die for england. after three wins from three in the group stages, particularly 6—1 victory over wins from three in the group stages, particularly 6—1victory over china, you can may be seen sometimes how complacency might slip into the minds of england fans but not the england team. they are well aware there have been some big countries who have gone out of this tournament. germany and brazil out in the group stages and then the world champions with the holders, america, out yesterday against sweden. it is getting to that stage, their business end of the tournament. this really is a hostile environment here in australia and it is notjust the

environment here in australia and it is not just the football that can kill you. forthose is not just the football that can kill you. for those of you who might have little fear of snakes, look away now. some of the deadliest snakes in the world can be found in australia. at the knockout stages of the women's world cup, danger from the remaining teams increases. england's next opponents are on that scale. nigeria have beaten the co—hosts australia and held olympic champions canada to a draw. they are a physical side, capable of delivering a fatal strike. they are a very athletic team. quick, transitional. but they also want to play. so, yeah, we are aware of their strengths and what we're going to try to do is exploit their weaknesses. the lionesses certainly did that to china. commentator: it's out _ to lauren james who makes it three. and england make it look easy in this first half. england fans were thrilled with a 6—1victory, but there are no premature plans to celebrate with their famous dancing after this match. well, i'm the best dancer, aren't i?

no, i don't dance that quickly. let's first play the game. wiegman will be happy at least that kira walsh was back training with the squad for a knee injury not as bad as first thought, but she may not be fit in time to face nigeria. england have had a well—earned rest after the group stages, but they can't afford to sit on their laurels. nigeria will be a very different opposition and they certainly won't be cuddly. yes, good news for england that keira walsh is back. still a late assessment as to whether she will be able to play in this game against nigeria or not. it is a bit too soon, perhaps. even when —— if and when she does come back in the tournament, she will not have to

play against america after that extraordinary penalty shoot—out where they lost to sweden. joining me are philippa and daughter charlotte francis with us. that game for america yesterday going out, where you shocked? what will it mean for england? i where you shocked? what will it mean for encland? .,, where you shocked? what will it mean for encland? ., , ~ where you shocked? what will it mean for england?— for england? i was shocked. sweden was a aood for england? i was shocked. sweden was a good team. — for england? i was shocked. sweden was a good team, the _ for england? i was shocked. sweden was a good team, the better - for england? i was shocked. sweden was a good team, the better team i for england? i was shocked. sweden| was a good team, the better team on the day— was a good team, the better team on the day one — was a good team, the better team on the day one. with a lot of competition out of the way, the chances — competition out of the way, the chances for england are better than even _ chances for england are better than even 00 _ chances for england are better than ever. y ., . chances for england are better than ever. , ., ., ., ., ever. do you agree? nigeria where a shock for everybody, _ ever. do you agree? nigeria where a shock for everybody, they _ ever. do you agree? nigeria where a shock for everybody, they play - shock for everybody, they play fantastic _ shock for everybody, they play fantastic i_ shock for everybody, they play fantastic. i think— shock for everybody, they play fantastic. i think it— shock for everybody, they play fantastic. i think it will- shock for everybody, they play fantastic. i think it will be - shock for everybody, they play fantastic. i think it will be a . fantastic. i think it will be a tough — fantastic. i think it will be a tough n1atch— fantastic. i think it will be a tough match today - fantastic. i think it will be a tough match today but - fantastic. i think it will be a tough match today but i - fantastic. i think it will be a . tough match today but i think england — tough match today but i think england witi— tough match today but i think england will win. _ tough match today but i think england will win.— tough match today but i think england will win. tough match today but i think encland will win. . ., , england will win. england have been ve -- england will win. england have been very -- nigeria _ england will win. england have been very -- nigeria have _ england will win. england have been very -- nigeria have been _ england will win. england have been very -- nigeria have been very - very —— nigeria have been very strong. people like to root for the underdogs. maybe it will be good for them but i still think we will win. are you excited about going in to see the match?—

as a "watershed moment." it's only the fifth film to hit the billion dollar figure since the pandemic. it has become event cinema, that is what they are saying is really encouraging people to actually go to the movie theatre to watch it. people are dressing up. carol is very much on barbie trend this morning. very much on barbie trend this morninu. ., . . ., morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start — morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start if— morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start if you _ morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start if you are _ morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start if you are in _ morning. coincidence. good morning. a chilly start if you are in the - a chilly start if you are in the highlands. the temperature is full, 5 degrees. for most of us it is between eight and 12 degrees. the forecast today is of sunny spells and scattered showers. many of us will miss their showers altogether. the most frequent will be on the far north of scotland. a largely dry day for most. later on in the day the cloud was picking up across the south—west and wales, heralding the arrival of the next area of low pressure bringing in drizzle and patchy light rain. temperatures today 14 in the north to 21 in the south—east. as we head on through

the evening and overnight with this area of low pressure continues to drift east. it will bring in extensive cloud, low cloud, the mist and fog particularly slow on the hills and case and still light patchy rain and drizzle. to the north of that it will be mostly dry. a few showers in the far north of scotland and the wind starting to pick up. temperatures seven to 13 and also starting to feel humid across the south—west. into tomorrow we hang on to all this cloud and also the patchy rain drifting east through the course of the day. extensive mist and fog on the hills and coast. through the day it should start to break up in the south—west of england and also part of wales. northern england, northern ireland and scotland go something drierfor you with sunshine. a few showers peppering the far north of scotland. here the wind will be picking up, particularly over shetland where

there could be gas a 50 miles an hour. temperatures 12 to 19. beyond this the temperatures do start to get that bit higher, we are looking at their mid—20s, possibly for some the high 20s. at their mid-20s, possibly for some the high 20s— an inquest is due to begin today into the death of a 27—year—old man, which his family believe was linked to mould in their privately rented home. luke brooks died from respiratory problems last year. the case will be heard by the same coroner who investigated the death of two—year—old awaab ishak, who died due to mould exposure in 2020. our north of england correspondent, fiona trott, reports. he had plans. he's never going to experience love. he's never going to have children. i've got a great grandchild on the way and he's not going to see it. we've shouted from the top of the mountain, haven't we?

nothing. nobody�*s helped us — no—one. what is life like for you at the moment? oh, god. nightmare. absolute nightmare. afraid of the house they were living in. shouldn't be doing that. it's all wet. we first visited jimmy and patsy about three months ago. it's where luke died. they believe all this killed him. it started, he said, "mum, my chest feels a bit bit sore." i said, "right," i said, "we'll keep an eye on it." and he progressively got worse, to the point where he could hardly breathe. two days after, dead, gone. mould was everywhere, it was even on their clothes. caused by nine years of disrepair, they believe, and constant leaks. second leak. you can see it's going down the walls. i was stood here, i was doing sandwiches for my son. next minute, i felt the drip and the next minute i got a shower. every time they go in the shower, that leaks.

that's dangerous, that. i'm frightened of one of them getting electrocuted up there. there's wires there. what has the landlord done about it? nothing. "i'll get it sorted." everything's knackered in here. waste of space, man. this is luke's room. where was the mould? all around the windows. it's ridiculous. it's freezing cold. when mould forms across here, my mind starts racing and then i start thinking about him and ijust can't stop crying. he was my rock, my best man. beautiful lad.

why couldn't they just sort it out? why couldn't they just fix it? i'd have looked after it. nine years of hell we've had, nine years of hell. surviving the cold. surviving this, surviving that. it shouldn't be about surviving. i've not had a life, me and my husband, or my family. it's just been this house. "what are we going to do? what can... how can we do...? get out of here." what can we do? you know what i mean? i've tried. this all feels quite familiar because the hearing into luke's death is being held by the same coroner and in the same court as the awaab ishak inquest, the little toddler who died from mould exposure in his home. and at that inquest, we heard there was concern about this automatic assumption that in houses like these across the uk, it's tenants and their lifestyles that are to blame. and patsy and jimmy have told us they did everything. they said they even used mould treatment themselves. they played their part, they say, and they want this inquest to find out if their landlords and other authorities played their part, too. we've approached the landlord for comment but haven't yet

had a response. meanwhile, both the department for levelling up housing and communities and oldham council expressed their deepest condolences and said they were unable to discuss the case until the inquest was over. jimmy and patsy have now moved. hi, patsy, how are you doing? all right. oh, wow. it's very different, isn't it? it's warm and it even smells different. clea n. no mould. you all right? you look well. hi,jimmy. you all right? yeah. how do you feel? better. the last time you said, "living." you're not living, you're surviving. yeah, i were surviving, we weren't living lives. we were surviving, that was it. do you feel you've got your life back? definitely, yeah. patsy and jimmy say their grief is compounded by their need for answers. they hope the inquest will help them heal. i'm just moving on. i'm moving on.

i'm going to try. it's not going to be easy. fiona trott, bbc news oldham. we will obviously follow that story with great interest here. let's take a look at today's papers. the metro leads with comments from the shadow immigration minister, who has said labour will use barges to house asylum seekers temporarily if it wins the next general election. the times reports that more than 50,000 teenagers who would have received top a—level grades last year could miss out this summer. it carries comments from a senior education professor, who says changes to grading since the pandemic could mean a rise in appeals, when results are published next week. all sorts of implications for

university applications and all sorts of stuff. the daily mirror leads on a poll of its readers carried out by the newspaper, which suggests that 74% of people would like tougher penalties for the owners of dangerous dogs. and the most watched video on the bbc news website this morning captures the rescue of a man from a partially submerged boat in the atlantic ocean. charles gregory had been missing off the coast of florida for 35 hours, after a wave capsized the vessel during a fishing trip. the 25—year—old said he was stung by a jellyfish, saw sharks, and lost his life jacket and mobile phone during the incident. not n ot exa ctly not exactly a chill weekend for him. the idea of losing a mobile phone seems worse. we can stay in the water. and, take a look at this — surfing, it seems, has gone to the dogs. this is derby the surfing mutt, competing at the world dog surfing championships

in california this weekend. he has got skills, let me tell you. he was joined by faith, who you can see here — without her goggles on. she is the one at the front. do you want another one? as many as you have got. exactly! carson, rosie and charlie also took part in the charity event, along with hundreds of others. participants arejudged on the height of the wave they tackle as well as the length of the surf. i really need to see live pictures. they take all terribly seriously, don't they? we are going on a surfing holiday soon. they have attempted surfing. let me tell you the dogs are far more proficient. an interesting piece in the times, talking about the importance of smells in reshaping and retraining our brain. when you smell something that takes you back to school or a

particular moment when you are in a field. all kinds of memories. it can be really useful in helping dementia patients. using diffusers in the home to trigger certain spells can —— smells can take them back. the idea is exposure to different scents, different artifactual experiences. what it is emulating in the brain. different smells when different triggers in the brain. you could get to a situation where it is bespoke. someone might want to be taken back to a certain smell. the overwhelming smell in our house at the moment is mouldy trainers. i do not know what that will do for brain development. coming up later in the programme... we'll be talking to strictly come dancing head judge shirley ballas, as she faces her fear of heights and takes on three crazy challenges, to raise money for a mental health charity in memory of her brother. good for her. it will be good to

talk to her and also about the recent announcements about who will be in strictly. we will try to squeeze some information out of her. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. educational needs in lewes have told parents it's preparing to close as it's not receiving enough funding. northease manor supports children from east sussex, brighton and kent. it says another £5,000 per child is needed per year. east sussex county council says the funding request is unsustainable and disproportionate. the school's governors say they've been underfunded for years. every year we go through the same

round of telling them what our needs are, explaining to them why the level of funding that we have isn't sufficient, and every year we are pushed back. over the last eight years there's been at least three years when we received no fee increases at all and this has had a cumulative knock—on effect over the years. and this year is like a watershed year for us. police are appealing for information after a motorcyclist was killed in a collision near sevenoaks yesterday. it happened just after half past one on the a225 shoreham road between shoreham and lullingstone. a protest is being held today against plans by gatwick airport to bring its second runway into full—time use. it's being organised by the gatwick area conservation campaign group. it follows the news that the plan to use the existing northern runway full—time has been accepted for detailed examination by the planning inspectorate. the airport says 78% of residents

who expressed an opinion, support gatwick 5 plans, and the newjobs they'll provide. opponents say it would ruin the environment and their villages. another overtime ban by the train drivers' union aslef will impact rail services this week across parts of the region. from this morning through till saturday night fewer trains will run on southern rail and thameslink routes with the gatwick express service between london victoria, gatwick airport and brighton off entirely. brighton's royal pavilion gardens may be on its way to getting a makeover as councillors seek to maintain its listed status. the council's bidding for more than £4 million of lottery cash to make improvements. historic england placed the garden on its heritage at risk register in 2017. time now to find out what's happening with the weather this week. here's elizabeth rizzini. hello there, good morning. well, it's quite a mixed week of weather ahead, there will be some more rain, some showers to come at times, but it's also looking drier and significantly warmer by the time we get to wednesday and especially thursday. a few showers possible today, though. it was rather chilly last night

with temperatures dropping back to high single figures underneath largely clear skies, but blue skies and sunshine to start of this morning. it's a lovely start to the day, there will be a lot more cloud developing and some of the cloud could produce a few showers as we head through the afternoon, but still some brighter spells at times, top temperatures peaking between 18 and 21 degrees celsius for most of us. the wind a lot lighter than it was over the weekend. overnight tonight we'll keep the clear skies out towards the east and then more cloud edging in from the west, so low cloud, mist and murk into the start of the day on tuesday when we'll keep those layers of cloud and there will be some showery outbreaks of rain here and there. by wednesday, it's a lot drier and more settled. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and rachel burden. we will talk about the traumatic netball world cup in a moment.

england have kept us waiting in the women's world cup. they really exploded into life. now when you think about the shock we have had, the united states going out, germany. suddenly we are dreaming and thinking could england do this? i think we have to strap ourselves in and be careful about where this could go. they are going to play nigeria, that is at 8:30am on bbc one. let's go over to brisbane. can england make the quarterfinals? we are getting carried away in the studio but sarina wiegman has been careful about what she is saying into this match and warning against

complacency. she into this match and warning against complacency-— into this match and warning against comlacen . ,, , , . , complacency. she is very much trying to kee a complacency. she is very much trying to keep a lid — complacency. she is very much trying to keep a lid on _ complacency. she is very much trying to keep a lid on things _ complacency. she is very much trying to keep a lid on things and _ complacency. she is very much trying to keep a lid on things and trying - to keep a lid on things and trying not to let anyone get carried away and that has been a big message out of the camp, they are not going to take nigeria for granted, not going to look past the challenge, the last 16 challenge. this has been a world cup of shock and surprise. look at england's side of the draw, germany and brazil are gone, england's side of the draw, germany and brazilare gone, olympic champions canada are gone. and some of the team is doing well against expectations, china, jamaica, who had to crowdfund their way into the world cup. and the us went out in a seismic shock last night. england know they can't take nigeria for granted. they will also be aware that the draw has opened up for them in such a way that they may never have a better chance to win this

world cup. but first they have to get past nigeria.— world cup. but first they have to get past nigeria. lauren james has set the tournament _ get past nigeria. lauren james has set the tournament alight - get past nigeria. lauren james has set the tournament alight with - get past nigeria. lauren james has set the tournament alight with her| set the tournament alight with her goals against china in particular. keira walsh, we had our hearts in our mouth is when she took the knock against denmark, we weren't sure if she would play again. but she is backin she would play again. but she is back in full training. will she be back in full training. will she be backin back in full training. will she be back in the england side later? it back in the england side later? it was a big surprise when we got that news that keira walsh was back in full training. a massive boost for england as well. we also those pictures when she went down in the game against denmark and there were fears her tournament could be over. and those were exacerbated by her reaction, saying she had done her knee. thankfully the injury isn't as

bad as initially feared. she is back in full training bad as initially feared. she is back infull training and bad as initially feared. she is back in full training and she could be available if she recovers well. she could even start, we don't know. sarina wiegman keeps her cards close to her chest. but she has got all the big calls right so far. nigeria will be tough. — the big calls right so far. nigeria will be tough, african _ the big calls right so far. nigeria | will be tough, african champions. the big calls right so far. nigeria i will be tough, african champions. a reminder that the match kicks off at 8:30am and live coverage beginning at eight o'clock on bbc one. arsenal manager mikel arteta says his side have overcome a mental hurdle by beating treble—winners manchester city to win the community shield at wembley. a brilliant goalfrom cole palmer in the second half looked to have won it for city but leonardo trossard's effort in the 11th minute of injury time took a fortunate deflection and, at 1—1, it went straight to penalties, fabio vieira converting to give arsenal the first piece of silverware of the season. it's great.

that's the reason why we're here at the end is to win trophies for this football club and make it successful. and just the joy of seeing so many happy people and proud people, and the connection, again, doing it in front of our supporters as well in wembley feels very different, and it was great. we've had our first weekend of efl football this season and plenty of drama. leeds united, back in the championship after relegation last season, onlyjust avoided defeat. they were 2—0 down at home to cardiff at elland road before staging a comeback. crysencio summerville with the equaliser five minutes into added time here. leicester city's premier league experience showed, as they began life back in the championship with a 2—1victory over coventry. they went behind early in the second half before kiernan dewsbury—hall scored twice in ten minutes. if you're a regular at football matches, it looks as though you're going to have to keep your travel plans flexible in future. new rules are in place

regarding added time, with officials told to calculate the exact time taken for goals, substitutions, injuries and so on. many games are now going beyond the 100—minute mark. there were 13 minutes of added time at sunderland yesterday — but it wasn't enough to stop them losing to ipswich, who were promoted last season — george hirst with what turned out to the the winner. it finished 2—1. there was a treat for the away fans in the scottish premiership, as st mirren won a five—goal thriller against hibs. st mirren were 2—0 up, then it was 2—2, before alex grieve eventually settled it in the final minute of normal time. england's incredible run at the netball world cup ultimately ended in disappointment, as they lost to australia in the final. the 12—time champions denied england their first world title, winning 61—45 in cape town. but there are still positives to take. ben croucher reports. the netball world cup has offered us a glimpse of england's

promise and potential, and also the pain. for once again, australia's diamonds shone brightest. having beaten them just three days ago in the groups, england were up for their first final, all right, and matched australia in a tight first quarter. but there on in, australia got a grip on the game. she gets it straightaway. built on an intense defence, the diamonds' cutting edge across the court saw them build a commanding ten—goal lead by the final quarter. england had to throw caution to the wind, the ball into the unknown... courtney bruce comes out playing. ..where australia were waiting to pounce. world champions for a 12th time. such is the difference between a team that have been in 12 of them and a team that have just broken into their first one. and you know, it's a tough lesson and, of course, over the next few days, i'm sure it will sink in in terms of that history that we've made. but for now, i think it's ok for us to feel a little bit disappointed.

this has been a tournament that england have ignited more than any before, but the final fireworks were reserved for australia. ben croucher, bbc news. it was another successful night for great britain at the cycling world championships in glasgow with five para—cycling gold medals in the velodrome. a former para climbing and para triathlon world champion, frances brown now has another world title to put on her cv. she also broke the world record as she won gold in the c1 individual pursuit. another new name to british cycling is 19—year—old archie atkinson, who won the men's c4 scratch race. a great performance from him. afterwards, he dedicated his win to his american friend, mountain bike rider magnus white, who died in a training accident just a week ago aged 17. kadeena cox showed that two hip operations since december and problematic knees can't slow her down as the paralympic

champion retained her title in the women's c4 500 metres time trial. five people were arrested after a protest stopped the men's elite road race for almost an hour. the environmental group this is rigged claimed responsibility. dutch rider mathieu van der poel won the race. there are widespread reports this morning that henry slade, england's experienced centre, is going to be dropped for the upcoming rugby union world cup. head coach steve borthwick will name his final 33 today. he's had plenty to think about after their disappointing defeat to wales in a warm—up at the weekend. wales, scotland and ireland won't be naming their squads until later this month. we are expecting the england announcement at tain aem. —— 10am. before her death last year, dame deborahjames worked tirelessly to raise awareness of the signs

and symptoms of bowel cancer, reaching millions of people with her raw and honest approach. one of them was 44—year—old abbie watson, who visited her doctor after seeing dame deborah's story. she has since received a terminal diagnosis, but is beginning new treatment, following a successful fundraising campaign. our reporter claire starr has been to meet her. it wasn't until we had the terminal diagnosis that my husband and i sat on that and like, "we need to tell the boys." we tried to explain that it wasn't going to be immediate, i wasn't going anywhere, tomorrow or the next day, but at some point i wouldn't be here any more. and... oh, this conversation. a new treatment with a new hope. a hope for more time for 44—year—old

mother of two abbie watson, living with a diagnosis of stage four terminal bowel cancer. abbie's main symptom was an ache around her pelvis, put down to period pain. it just never really went away but ijust got used to it and kind of didn't think about it as much. i had been following dame deborahjames, bowelbabe, for a number of years, and i think there was an inkling in the back of my mind this could be what i thought it was. following bowelbabe did get me to the gp quicker than it would have done. bowel cancer is so, so treatable if it is diagnosed at an early stage. so stage one, stage two, we know stage three diagnosed patients who are surviving and living their lives very well. i'm just really sad that i might not get to see them grow up and be with them when they get their first heartbreak and when they fall over and they run to you. that won't be me.

working with her neighbour cat in banbury, the pair set up a gofundme page to raise money for a new treatment, a personalized type of vaccine, after the nhs could only continue to offer maintenance chemotherapy, raising over £50,000 in less than a week. really overwhelmed. i don't think i've cried as many happy tears in a long time. if there's a viable option out there that could work to save someone's life, then i'm definitely all for it, absolutely. and by any means possible, being able to to make that happen. so don't put off the conversation and don't think, if you're a woman, it'sjust a bad pain, or it's you're going through perimenopause or menopause — get it checked out. a hope those conversations may be had early enough to help others. that was claire sarr reporting.

here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. i think things are getting a little better this week?— better this week? yes. getting warmer, especially _ better this week? yes. getting l warmer, especially wednesday, thursday and friday. but it will not last long. by the weekend it looks like we will be back into fresher conditions as a cold front comes across bringing rain. today, high pressured dominating the way there. settled with a few showers. but we have the next system coming our way bringing a lot of low cloud later today. to start, blue skies, areas of cloud, and frequent showers in the far north of scotland, a few scattered showers developing through the day but not all of us catching run, then as the next system comes from the atlantic, light and patchy

rain starting to move in. temperatures today 14—21. north to south. through the evening and overnight, the system continues to move on, patchy rain with it, a lot of cloud and some mist and fog, particularly on the hills and coasts. it will drift eastwards through tuesday. we could have some breaks behind it, south—west england, south wales. showers continuing on the far north. then it will become increasingly windy. temperatures 12 in lyric to about 19 in southern england and south wales. overnight, more a low cloud coming in across wales in the south—west, mist and fog on the coasts and hills. something to bear in mind if you are travelling early on wednesday. then on wednesday itself,

a lot of dry weather, cloud moving across southern england and wales at times, but we will see some sunshine, but windy in the far north and north—east of scotland. temperatures 12—24 north to south. you can see the warmer weather starting to move in from the south. through the latter part of wednesday into thursday and friday, a fair bit of settled conditions, the wind coming up from the south, so during thursday we are looking at a lot of dry weather. it will be muggy overnight on wednesday into thursday. more cloud from the west, and we can see milder air pushing further north. we could see about 26 somewhere in western scotland on thursday. overnight on thursday night, muggy for many others. more

fresh in northern scotland. temperatures overnight, ten in the north to about 16 in the south. then the cold front moves in from the west towards the east, bringing some rain but fresher conditions. some of the rain will be heavy. just rain but fresher conditions. some of the rain will be heavy.— the rain will be heavy. just when i thou~ht the rain will be heavy. just when i thought summer _ the rain will be heavy. just when i thought summer was _ the rain will be heavy. just when i thought summer was back. - the rain will be heavy. just when i thought summer was back. it - the rain will be heavy. just when i l thought summer was back. it might hanu thought summer was back. it might hang around — thought summer was back. it might hang around a _ thought summer was back. it might hang around a little _ thought summer was back. it might hang around a little longer. - thought summer was back. it might hang around a little longer. but - thought summer was back. it might hang around a little longer. but the j hang around a little longer. but the high temperatures look like they will not last. it's the secretive military base best known for conducting research into chemical warfare, but scientists at porton down are taking on a new and, as yet, unidentified enemy. inside a set of laboratories, experts are preparing for what is known as disease x, or the next pandemic virus. our health correspondent dominic hughes was given rare access to the facility.

the delicate task of protecting the nation's health. this is one of the laboratories at porton down, where scientists are analysing current threats — new variants of covid, for example — and trying to identify new ones. inside these purpose—built labs, more than 200 scientists working for the uk health security agency are helping to develop and test vaccines against a range of diseases. it's vital work to keep us all safe. we've got, in many respects, the toughestjob in the world, which is to protect health against infectious diseases and environmental hazards and it is tough because we know the risks of new and emerging infections, including those of pandemic potential, is increasing. we maintain a constant state of vigilance but what we also do

here in our laboratories is the research to understand those threats. as and when they arrive, we are able to control them rapidly and effectively, before they have the kind of enormous impact on our lives that covid—19 did. for decades, scientists at porton down have been involved in medical research, as well as the work on chemical and biological warfare for which the centre is perhaps better known. archive: the first apparatus in the world for growing - antibiotics continuously. but the coronavirus pandemic presented a new and urgent challenge. during the pandemic, laboratories like this one played an absolutely vital role in assessing how effective the vaccines were in combating the coronavirus, and that work continues today. but as well as monitoring how effective existing vaccines are against new covid variants, the new vaccine development and evaluation centre is looking at emerging threats for which no vaccine yet exists.

one of those is crimean—congo haemorrhagic fever, a virus that is spread by the bite of an infected tick and is fatal in about 30% of cases. a serious outbreak occurred in afghanistan in 2017 but the disease is widespread across africa, asia, the middle east and the balkans. changes to climate and the way we live mean viruses like this one could find a way to the uk. but equally, the next pandemic could be caused by a virus that has yet to be identified — what experts call disease x. well, covid, of course, is not a one—off. it's a pathogen that's arisen, but in a rising tide of risk. so, we have climate change, we've got mosquitoes, we've got ticks, we've got different habitats, we've got urbanisation with closeness between animals and humans, so this unit here is designed to try and get ahead of that curve, to identify the pathogens that may cause risk and then, to stop them before they do their harm.

dangers known and unknown. these scientists will be working to make sure we are prepared for both. dominic hughes, bbc news, porton down. with rising costs and a drop in footfall, britain's high streets have been continuing to decline. now, some businesses are coming up with new, innovative ways to tempt people back into towns and cities. ben's in liverpool, taking a look at this for us this morning. it looks very high—tech. yes, good morning. you could be forgiven for thinking you were accidentally watching the masters. this is the former liverpool debenhams department store which has been totally transformed,

repurposed into a leisure and entertainment venue. this was once the menswearfloor and now crazy golf. one of the features. debenhams shut its doors for the last time in may 2021 and it has been a tough time for department stores. in five years alone we lost 83% of them, including the iconic bhs, as well as debenhams. fennec is the latest to announce it is closing after a century of trading. —— fenwick. meanwhile, it's not looking good for house of fraser, who are clinging onto their high street presence. it's boss recently said it could close more stores, after shutting eight in the past year and declaring, "the department store globally is broken." repurposed in the old buildings is key to keeping them alive. joining me now is michael harrison,

the co—founder of gravity max. explain the thinking behind this. retailers are struggling and for others we see a hole in the market where how can we assist the retail environment? we are not here to replace it but what can we do which is different to online? in replace it but what can we do which is different to online?— is different to online? in the cost of livin: is different to online? in the cost of living crisis, _ is different to online? in the cost of living crisis, do _ is different to online? in the cost of living crisis, do people - is different to online? in the cost of living crisis, do people have i is different to online? in the cost. of living crisis, do people have the money to come and spend? taste of living crisis, do people have the money to come and spend? we do not have a door — money to come and spend? we do not have a door charge, _ money to come and spend? we do not have a door charge, you _ money to come and spend? we do not have a door charge, you can _ money to come and spend? we do not have a door charge, you can come - money to come and spend? we do not have a door charge, you can come in i have a door charge, you can come in as ourfamily, a couple on a night out, a corporate event, and enjoy live entertainment, some of the activities. people still need to socialise and be together. you repurposed — socialise and be together. you repurposed of _ socialise and be together. you repurposed of the _ socialise and be together. you repurposed of the old department store building but people coming here and spending are not going to the other shops in liverpool. is this killing off other retailers?

it. ., , ., , quite a lot later, by the looks of it. .,, , . it. not sure about his technique there. parking and recycling are often the subject of neighbourly debates but in goole, in east yorkshire, the talk of the town is "salt and pepper". they're the nicknames of the two water towers which have framed the skyline for more than 100 years, but the question of which structure is which has been causing a lot of disagreement. our reporter philip norton has been to find out more. it's the question on everybody�*s lips. there are quite a few older people who think that the red one is the salt. the younger people tend to think it's the other way round. i was speaking to my parents and they are split. it has created debate in goole and right around the world. we were interviewed by abc radio in australia about it. the only problem is that no one could agree which one should be the salt and which one should be the pepper. the town's civic society had the idea of making commemorative salt and pepper pots

for the town's bicentenary. but the answer to which of goole's towers was which needed shaking out. we were discussing this and we said, right, which one is which, then? because obviously salt has one hole and pepper has more than one hole. the first tower was built in 1885 and, when goole grew, the bigger water tower was needed. seen here being built in 1926, the builders even had a quick way down. we filmed its restoration ten years ago. pauljarvis used to look after the towers when he worked for yorkshire water. we had pumps in there and they were failing and if i remember rightly all we had was a 6—inch scaffold pole and we used to have this thing to run again and go and get water again. what do you think about all these people who say, well, the salt pot when you go to a cafe is always the tall thin one, and the pepper one has got more

holes on the top so it's the big fat one? i don't think it matters. literally. because that is the pepper pot and the pepper pot has one hole in the top and it's thin, and the salt pot has several holes in the top so it has to be bigger. well, let's try and settle this once and for all in the shadow of the towers. this is gail's cafe. gail, show me the salt and pepper pots. there you go. which one is which out there? white salt, brown pepper. white is the pepper and brown the salt. the salt maybe is the first and the pepper is maybe on the back. salt is white so it should be the white one. pepper is red so it's the red one. easy. does it matter? well, it seems to. more than 300 people voted at a park fun day this weekend and there has been a whole raft of comedy memes online. so let's go back to a man who should know. i don't know when the debate started.

i'm 70 years old now and it's always been pepper pot, salt pot. it is a spicy debate, perhaps best taken with a pinch of salt. philip norton, bbc news. but a pinch of salt from which one? coming up later in the programme... england are through to the quarterfinals, penalties at the world cup. the man behind some of the biggest shows on stage and tv will be here to tell us about his latest play, inspired by the trials and tribulations of the england men's football squad, under gareth southgate. james graham will be in the studio with us at ten to nine. lionesses in action in australia in one and a half hours.

the area to come forward for police to gather together what happened. governors at a school for children with special educational needs in lewes have told parents it is preparing to close as it is not receiving enough funding. north east manor supports children from brighton, east sussex and kent. another £12,000 per child is needed each year. the funding request is unsustainable and disproportionate. the governors say they have been underfunded for years. the protest is being held today against plans by gatwick airport to bring its second runway to full—time use. it is being organised by the gatwick area conservation campaign group. it follows the news the plans to use the existing northern runway has been accepted for detailed examination by the planning expectorant. 78% of residents expressing an opinion support the plans for gatwick and the new jobs

it's monday, the 7th of august. our top story. the first asylum seekers to be housed on board a barge in dorset, are expected to arrive today. housed on board a barge in dorset, the bibby stockholm will take up to 500 men over the next 18 months, while their claims are assessed. the plan is part of the government's effort to reduce the cost of accommodating migrants but it's prompted safety concerns and protests from local people, as our west of england correspondent dan johnson reports. three weeks after reaching portland, the bibby stockholm looks like it's about to take up its role, as a home for asylum seekers and a display of a tougher approach to immigration. this is part of the government's insistence on reducing hotel bills, currently around £6 million a day, and deterring migrants from crossing the channel. it's controversial. concerns about fire safety saw it labelled a death trap, but it seems everything may now be in place. we have seen a letter sent to asylum seekers, saying they'll be moved here later today. now, that did happen twice last week and then there were delays,

but this is the first time a specific date's been mentioned. and the home office is under pressure now to make this work. when i was shown around, officials emphasised it was safe and clean, but basic and functional. in the past, offshore workers have stayed here and other countries have used it for asylum seekers. but fitting bunk beds has doubled its capacity and heightened concerns about inhumane, unsafe conditions. no hate, no fear. all: refugees are welcome here! broader opposition has followed local protests about the impact on this community and its public services. many still feel this is the wrong thing in the wrong place. but it's become a test of whether the government can turn its ideas, its plans and rhetoric over immigration into real, workable solutions. danjohnson, bbc news, portland. our reporter steve humphrey

is at portland harbour this morning. steve, the barge has already been there for three weeks but it looks like it will finally become operational today? that is what we are hearing. yes, the hugely _ that is what we are hearing. yes, the hugely controversial - that is what we are hearing. i'eis the hugely controversial barge that is what we are hearing. ieis the hugely controversial barge is just behind me here, the bibby stockholm, the grey and metal waiting in the harbourfor the stockholm, the grey and metal waiting in the harbour for the first migrants. it has been hugely controversial, even before it arrived remember there was no public consultation before it arrived. the government wants to put 500 asylum seekers on here, double the normal capacity. the population of portland itself is around 14,000. no consultation before the government decided to put it here. local people were not asked for views and dorset council was not asked for its view. we have seen a lot of protest. i have been at some of them. you

really do feel passion and emotion are people saying this is not the right place to have this sort of facility. they say it will put pressure on local services. we know the government and other organisations have been trying to reassure people that systems have been put in place so pressure is not put on the local nhs and those sorts of things. it remains hugely controversial. it arrived here three weeks ago. we were expecting asylum seekers to go straight on board. more delays caused by concerns over fire safety and other issues. you might remember the fire brigades union described the barge as a potential death trap. we have heard from robertjenrick, who said i can absolutely assure you this is a safe facility, the government wants to drive it forward because it wants to reduce the cost of housing migrants. at the moment something like 50,000 migrant asylum seekers are being put

up migrant asylum seekers are being put up in hotels, costing the uk taxpayer round about £6 million a day, we are told. today we will have the breaking news that asylum seekers will be going on the barge for the first time. it has taken a long time to get this facility up and running. long time to get this facility up and running-— long time to get this facility up and runninu. ., ., ., ., ,., and running. from portland harbour, back to you- — we did ask to speak to a home office minister, but they were unable to accommodate an interview with bbc breakfast this morning. in fact, migration is top of the agenda for some of the other stories we are covering this morning. it is. fines for businesses and landlords who knowingly support illegal migrants, will triple under new rules announced by the government. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent nick eardley. the government seems very keen to make big announcements on migration over the next few days. it is interesting. _ over the next few days. it is interesting. although - over the next few days. it 3 interesting. although we have spoken for months on breakfast about the challenges the government plans on getting its plans of the ground when it does want to talk tough. we are

getting more of that this morning. we have got the immigration minister robertjenrick announcing that the fines meted out for housing an illegal immigrant or giving an illegal immigrant or giving an illegal immigrant or giving an illegal immigrantjob will be increased significantly for the first time in a decade actually. i have been looking at numbers. landlords who rent property to illegal immigrants could face a £10,000 fine, employers who employ illegal immigrants, that could be as much as £60,000. the argument is these are serious offences and the level of the fine should match that. but there are bigger questions about whether the government plans, apart from the bibby stockholm, whether they are getting off the ground. the rwanda plan is still stuck in the courts. there is talk of a plan b

option. other places. one of them are small volcanic island in the south atlantic, ascension island. it has been talked about before. in the past it was ruled out because it was completely impractical. not sure that will get off the ground. they will hear more of this week is the government trying to talk tough on the idea of cracking down on small boats. . ~' , ., , the idea of cracking down on small boats. . ~ , ., , . at least 30 people have been killed and 100 injured, after a train derailed in southern pakistan. several carriages of the hazara express overturned near sahara railway station yesterday. an investigation is ongoing into the cause of the crash with initial inquiries showing the train was travelling at normal speed. there will be more disruption on the rail network this week, as members of the aslef union begin another week—long ban on overtime, in an ongoing dispute over pay. 15 rail operating companies will be affected and hundreds of services could be cancelled.

we have a ridge of high pressure developing across as before the next period of low pressure comes our way. some frequent showers across northern scotland but a lot of dry weather and some sunshine. northern ireland and northern england, scattered showers, not all of us seeing them, and a lot of dry weather to start the day with some sunshine. later on, the cloud will build across south—west england and south wales and we will start to see some drizzle and patchy rain coming our way. temperatures 14 in the north, 20 in the south. this evening and overnight ourfronts bringing this cloud and patchy rain pushing

further east, some fog on the coasts and hills but moving into northern england and northern ireland and scotland, clearer skies, showers persisting in the north—east, and the wind will be picking up. temperatures 9—14, 15, but feeling muqqy temperatures 9—14, 15, but feeling muggy in the south—west. tomorrow, the cloud and patchy rain move to the cloud and patchy rain move to the east. but it could brighten up, parts of south—west england and wales, but still a few showers and becoming wendy in the far north east. families of people with complex medical needs are warning the nhs system that funds their care at home, is struggling to provide adequate support. the bbc has been following 24—year—old declan spencerfor ten months — witnessing how the repeated breakdown of his care has

left his mother having to provide it by herself 24 hours a day. our social affairs editor, alison holt has their story. been doing this since he was a child, you know. and i'm burning out, but no—one actually seems to care. this is the reality of home life for 24—year—old declan and his mother, alex. he has duchenne muscular dystrophy — a muscle—wasting condition. day and night are filled with medication, ventilator checks, physio and the care that keeps him alive. it's made, like, my chest and my lungs weak and my heart. so i have to wear... more often i have to wear my ventilator now. i'm in the middle of something. they also face a constant struggle to find care staff to help. alex has been keeping a video diary for us since last october. i've been looking after derek all day because he's still getting over pneumonia.

it's been go, go, go, go, go. i'm absolutely shattered. at 3:00, we had to do more chest physio. 5:00, we had to do more chest physio. 8:00, started put his neb on and then had to, um... sorry, i'm knackered. declan's care is paid for by the nhs under a scheme known as continuing health care. it funds him for support at nearly £19 an hour, but his mum says it can cost up to £80 an hour for the skilled nursing care he increasingly needs. and with a fixed budget, it means they get fewer hours of help. at times, alex has gone 60 hours without sleep. i've now got to do the rest of the night, get declan up in the morning. then i'm going to have to look after declan all day tomorrow. you have to do it yourself, to the point they've had me where i've ended up saying, "ok, you win, you're going to have to put

him into care, because i physically cannot do this any more. and then they've told me that there actually isn't any residential care suitable. when they do find care staff, they often don't stay long. putting trust in people is so difficult when a lot of them clearly don't know want they're doing. nhs spending on this sort of home—based care has risen significantly in the last four years, but experts say increasing demand, more complex medical needs and rising costs mean more patients say they aren't getting enough support. dan harber runs an nhs—funded helpline that advises people on continuing health care. we have been receiving more and more calls from people who just sound incredibly desperate, upset, stressed, exhausted because the care package isn't working for them and they are struggling to get anybody to listen to them.

declan's local nhs says it ensures a patient�*s health care needs are met but can't always commission the support a family would prefer. even so, over the months of alex's video diaries, her absolute exhaustion is at times painfully clear. when i fall asleep, i don't realise he's still breathing. i'm not stupid. i could see him getting weaker in front of me. the government says it is putting billions of pounds extra into health and social care, including for the recruitment and retention of staff. clever boy. in may this year, alex and declan were told he only has months to live. both are determined to make

the most of that time. within 24 hours of getting that prognosis, i was, "what are we going to do? how are we going to make this amazing?" i've not got as long as i was hoping for with a life. i want to get up and live my life to the fullest. allison holt, bbc news. we are nowjoined by nadra ahmed, the chair of the national care association. thank you forjoining us. how common is the situation at declan and his family find themselves in? —— thanked declan. family find themselves in? -- thanked declan.— family find themselves in? -- thanked declan. sadly it is more common than — thanked declan. sadly it is more common than we _ thanked declan. sadly it is more common than we would - thanked declan. sadly it is more common than we would hope . thanked declan. sadly it is more common than we would hope it | thanked declan. sadly it is more i common than we would hope it is. i think the continuing pair model is

creaking. it is not significantly making a difference in people's lives. when you are applying what you are trying to make somebody�*s life as comfortable as possible and it has to be funded properly and paid properly. it is causing enormous stress for a lot of families. this one, when you look plan to commit when you look at the person delivering the care, in the absence of a health care professional doing it, which is what he has been assessed as needing, you can see the impact on the carer. this informal pairing is costing our state a huge number. we have millions of people doing that. we have just got to get this right. it is creaking. what you have just seen is creaking. what you have just seen is a tip of the iceberg. to is creaking. what you have 'ust seen is a tip of the iceberg._ is a tip of the iceberg. to see the

running for the mayoralty, replied, "well, let's have a think about it, shall we?" the next election for mayor of london is next year. ken livingstone was the first mayor of london 23 years ago, winning as an independent candidate. a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 20—year—old was stabbed to death in south—east london in the early hours of friday morning. julian ebanks—ford was found with knife injuries on kender street in new cross. a 19—year—old man was arrested at the weekend, with police appealing for witnesses to come forward to piece together what happened in the moments before the stabbing. a protest is being held today against plans by gatwick airport to bring its second runway into full—time use. it's being organised by the gatwick area conservation campaign group. it follows the news that the plan to use the existing northern runway full—time has been accepted for detailed examination by the planning inspectorate. the airport says 78% of residents

who expressed an opinion support gatwick 5 plans and the newjobs they'll provide. opponents say it would ruin the environment and their villages. already there's so much pollution in this area and the extra noise, traffic, congestion would just make our lives unbearable. charlwood's a medieval village and families have lived here for generation and generation so it's not a case of why did we move here? families have lived here for generations so it is so important that gatwick doesn't continue to expand. brighton's royal pavilion gardens may be on its way to getting a makeover as councillors seek to maintain its listed status. the council's bidding for more than £4 million of lottery cash to make improvements. historic england placed the garden on its heritage at risk register in 2017. and now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello there, good morning.

well, it's quite a mixed week of weather ahead, there will be some more rain, some showers to come at times, but it's also looking drier and significantly warmer by the time we get to wednesday and especially thursday. a few showers possible today, though. it was rather chilly last night with temperatures dropping back to high single figures underneath largely clear skies, but blue skies and sunshine to start of this morning, —— off this morning, it's a lovely start to the day. there will be a lot more cloud developing and some of the cloud could produce a few showers as we head through the afternoon, but still some brighter spells at times, top temperatures peaking between 18 and 21 degrees celsius for most of us. the wind a lot lighter than it was over the weekend. overnight tonight we'll keep the clear skies out towards the east and then more cloud edging in from the west, so low cloud, mist and murk into the start of the day on tuesday when we'll keep those layers of cloud and there will be some showery outbreaks of rain here and there. by wednesday, it's a lot drier and more settled.

hello, this is breakfast with rachel burden and jon kay. england play nigeria in the women's world cup at half past eight. before that... a grieving mother and her lawyer have been targeted by an extreme campaign of abuse, after suing a conspiracy theory newspaper which falsely claimed her son died from a covid vaccine. disinformation and social media correspondent marianna spring joins us now, to talk us through what the bbc has uncovered. good morning. as you mentioned, i have been investigating conspiracy theory newspapers across the uk and europe in the past few months and you might remember on breakfast a few months ago i spoke about the uk

light, a conspiracy newspaper accused of spreading disinformation. now i am investigating thing—mac because one women, edel campbell, has spoken about it. there were 42 photographs in this newspaper, one of edel campbell's son. the article suggested the deaths were connected to the covid vaccine, describing it as untested and dangerous. we know deaths from the vaccine are rare. we were told that diego had taken his own life and not received the vaccine. now edel campbell is taking legal action against the editor of the thing—mac.

—— against the editor of the irish light. notjust not just that, the notjust that, the solicitor has told me how he and his legal team have been subject to abuse from supporters of the irish light, including threats of execution and being shot. here is a clip of what he had to say about the impact that can have on people trying to hold these conspiracy theory newspapers to account. and given how the irish light and their supporters conduct themselves, you can understand why a lot of people were incredibly reluctant to go to a solicitor or correspond directly when they saw the backlash with edel campbell. it may have been better for them, in their view, to take a step back and go, "look, i'm just going to put this to the side, i can't deal with this."

i got igot in i got in touch with the editor of the irish light and they didn't respond directly but they posted online suggesting i was i was a disinformation agent and i would do a hatchetjob on the paper. they said this would be a character assassination because the editor exposed the vaccine genocide. this case is ongoing and is unfolding at the high court in dublin and you can hear more about it and the repercussions of trying to hold conspiracy theory papers to account in a bonus episode of my podcast series prog—mac. i in a bonus episode of my podcast series prog-mac._ series prog-mac. i read the interview — series prog-mac. i read the interview with _ series prog-mac. i read the interview with you - series prog-mac. i read the interview with you in - series prog-mac. i read the interview with you in the i series prog-mac. i read the i interview with you in the times talking about the level of abuse that comes your way doing these investigations. 80% of the abuse to bbc journalists investigations. 80% of the abuse to bbcjournalists comes to you individually. how do you deal with that? it

incredible world _ all going against nigeria. try 3 incredible world cup, the us, the holders, going out, there is no germany, canada, brazil. could england? let's speak to our sports correspondent katie gornall, who's in brisbane. we spoke one hour ago about the importance of keira walsh. no surprise to see her in training and she is now in the starting line—up for sarina wiegman. that is right. we have been awaiting the team sheet and it revealed keira walsh is back in the starting line—up. we wondered whether she would be fit to start the game after sarina wiegman revealed she was back in full sarina wiegman revealed she was back infull training, and sarina wiegman revealed she was back in full training, and she recovered well and would be available. she had a wry smile when she said it so you wondered if perhaps keira walsh

would be back. katie zelem drops to the bench. it looks like the are keeping the formation that worked well for them against china, 6—1 victory in the final group match. a great boost for england, ten days after we all feared that keira walsh's world cup might be over after she picked up that knee injury against denmark. the fears were driven by her reaction in that game. she signalled to the bench that she had done her knee and we were concerned it could be serious. thankfully it isn't as serious as first feared and it is a big boost to have her back because she is one of the most influential players. easy to get carried away potentially looking up colombia, jamaica quarterfinals. sarina wiegman saying not to get complacent. nigeria will be a tough challenge this morning. we saw how attacking england were against china in the last match so how will they deal with the threat

england will not be complacent against nigeria but they well know they will never have a better chance to win the world cup. first they have to get the job done in brisbane. have to get the 'ob done in brisbane.i have to get the 'ob done in brisbane. ., ., , ., , ., �* �* brisbane. coverage starts on bbc one at 8am with kick-off _ brisbane. coverage starts on bbc one at 8am with kick-off at _ brisbane. coverage starts on bbc one at 8am with kick-off at 8:30am. i arsenal manager mikel arteta says his side have overcome a mental hurdle by beating treble—winners manchester city to win the community shield at wembley. a brilliant goalfrom cole palmer in the second half looked to have won it for city but leonardo trossard's effort in the 11th minute of injury time took a fortunate deflection and at 1—all, it went straight to penalties, fabio vieira converting to give arsenal the first piece of silverware of the season. but city boss pep guardiola's biggest frustration afterwards was with the amount of stoppage time played and that managers weren't

consulted around the new rules. they don't consult whether the managers, they don't consult with the players, what are the opinions. they move it there, we have to accept it. so i have to accept it, they have to do it. now the games will be 100 minutes, that's for sure. imagine when they extend four goals, every time you score a goal in a game, 4—3, you put 30 seconds or 45 seconds for seven goals, tomorrow morning, 9am, i am here playing. pep guardiola wasn't pleased, but he'll have to get used to it. new rules around stoppages are now in place in english football with officials saying they'll be more accurate in calculating the exact time taken for goals, substitutions, injuries and so on. there were 13 minutes of added time at sunderland yesterday for example — but it wasn't enough to stop them losing to ipswich, who were promoted last season — george hirst with what turned out to the the winner. it finished 2—1. leeds united, back in the championship after relegation last season, onlyjust avoided defeat. they were 2—0 down to cardiff at elland road before

medal, i said to everyone at the end, we have got a silver medal. last year we came fourth, it was heartbreaking. now we are like, ok, it's heartbreaking we weren't gold but we've got a silver so we can be really happy with ourselves and what we've done in the past ten days. it was another successful night for great britain at the cycling world championships in glasgow with five para—cycling gold medals in the velodrome. a former para climbing and para triathlon world champion, frances brown now has another world title to put on her cv. she also broke the world record as she won gold in the c1 individual pursuit. it's amazing. i came here with no expectations, it was my first attempt at track, and yeah, absolutely amazing. i was so nervous going into it, with everyone, the expectation, and i don't know how i used that but i did, so i'm so happy. after missing out to his friend and compatriot jaco van gass in the men's c3 scratch race, finlay graham got his own back by winning the gold c3 individual pursuit.

over the next 18 months, while their claims are assessed. the plan is part of the government's effort to reduce the cost of accommodating migrants — but it's prompted safety concerns and protests from local people, as our west of england correspondent dan johnson reports. three weeks after reaching portland, the bibby stockholm looks like it's about to take up its role, as a home for asylum seekers and a display of a tougher approach to immigration. this is part of the government's insistence on reducing hotel bills, currently around £6 million a day, and deterring migrants from crossing the channel. it's controversial. concerns about fire safety saw it labelled a death trap, but it seems everything may now be in place. we have seen a letter sent to asylum seekers, saying they'll be moved here later today. now, that did happen twice last week and then there were delays, but this is the first time a specific date's been mentioned. and the home office is under pressure now to make this work. when i was shown around,

officials emphasised it was safe and clean, but basic and functional. in the past, offshore workers have stayed here and other countries have used it for asylum seekers. but fitting bunk beds has doubled its capacity and heightened concerns about inhumane, unsafe conditions. no hate, no fear. all: refugees are welcome here! broader opposition has followed local protests about the impact on this community and its public services. many still feel this is the wrong thing in the wrong place. but it's become a test of whether the government can turn its ideas, its plans and rhetoric over immigration into real, workable solutions. danjohnson, bbc news, portland. our reporter steve humphrey is at portland harbour this morning. the barge has already been for some

the barge has already been for some time but today we will see some activity on it. 50 time but today we will see some activity on it— time but today we will see some activity on it. so far this morning we haven't _ activity on it. so far this morning we haven't seen _ activity on it. so far this morning we haven't seen any _ activity on it. so far this morning we haven't seen any activity - activity on it. so far this morning i we haven't seen any activity around the barge which isjust behind me here in portland harbour. it has become part of the harbour scene very quickly. we are expecting their first tranche of seekers to go on board. they will be moved onto the barge. they are requested to sign in and out. the barge has been massively controversial. even before it arrived. no consultation for local people or even the local council. dorset council. we saw a whole series of protests and demonstrations. i was at some of those. you had to be there to fully experience the passion and emotion

are people who thought that here in portland port was entirely the wrong place to has over 500 male asylum seekers, people worried about the impact on local services and also on the local tourism industry. the barge has been here sincejuly the 18th. we were expecting asylum seekers to go on board quite rapidly after that. there have been a whole series of delays caused by concerns to fire safety and other issues. the fire brigades union described the barge is a potential death trap. robertjenrick has said i can absolutely assure you this is a safe facility. the government of course wants to get a move on because it wants to get a move on because it wants to get a move on because it wants to reduce the cost of housing asylum seekers in home, at the moment 50,000 asylum seekers in hotels which is costing the taxpayer over £6 million a year. the scene is set today here in the sunshine on the dorset coast for the first asylum seekers to arrive and we are

expecting more to follow in the coming days and weeks. from portland harbour, back to you.— we did ask to speak to a home office minister, but they were unable to accommodate an interview with bbc breakfast this morning. migration is also a story top of the agenda in westminster today. fines for businesses and landlords, who knowingly support illegal migrants, will triple under new rules announced by the government. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent, nick eardley. what have you found out? morning. we are exoecting — what have you found out? morning. we are exoecting a — what have you found out? morning. we are expecting a couple _ what have you found out? morning. we are expecting a couple of— are expecting a couple of announcements from the government on theissue announcements from the government on the issue of small boats this week. we are getting the first one today, which ministers say is all about cracking down on some of the business models which encourage illegal crossings over the channel. todayis illegal crossings over the channel. today is about cracking down on those landlords and employers who use illegal immigrants. the amount of money they can be fined is going

to be increased quite significantly, actually. we have been looking at the numbers for you. landlords who rent property to illegal immigrants could be fined up to £10,000. employers who employ illegal immigrants could be fined up to £60,000. the argument we are hearing from the government is that the size of the fines should match the seriousness of the offence. it is the first time there has been a significant increase since 2014. it is all about showing the government means business when it comes to cracking down on small boats. the numbers of people crossing the channel are still significant, about 15,000 already this year, slightly down on last year but still quite a lot. meanwhile, the government keeps trying to get the rwanda plan off the ground, lots of talk about a

plan b in the papers this morning. how many times have we sat and talked about this other morning? easier to talk than deliver.- easier to talk than deliver. thank ou. police are investigating the death of a 12—year—old boy, who was killed in a hit—and—run crash on a motorway in west yorkshire. the child was struck by a vehicle on the m62 shortly before 10pm on saturday — police say he was trying to make his way from the central reservation to the hard shoulder. a 36—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing, or allowing the death of a child. there will be more disruption on the rail network this week, as members of the aslef union begin another week—long ban on overtime, in an ongoing dispute over pay. 15 rail operating companies will be affected and hundreds of services could be cancelled. the world scout jamboree in south korea will end early due to a typhoon warning, organisers have confirmed. around 43,000 scouts from around the world are at the event but an extreme heatwave

them out. a lot of fans arriving, not long till kick—off. i will bring the breaking news we mentioned previously. a big boost in that keira walsh, who was stretchered off in a match against denmark in their knee injury. she is not only fit to play but starting for england. huge news for them. a tournament where anything can happen. so many teams have gone out, big teams, germany, brazil. then yesterday, america, world cup holders went out. this is a brutal competition. a hostile environment in this country and it is notjust environment in this country and it is not just football that environment in this country and it is notjust football that can kill you. some of the deadliest snakes in the world can be found in australia. at the knockout stages of the women's world cup, danger from the remaining teams increases. england's next opponents are on that scale. nigeria have beaten the co—hosts australia and held olympic champions canada to a draw. they are a physical side, capable

of delivering a fatal strike. they are a very athletic team. quick, transitional. but they also want to play. so, yeah, we are aware of their strengths and what we're going to try to do is exploit their weaknesses. the lionesses certainly did that to china. commentator: it's out _ to lauren james who makes it three. and england make it look easy in this first half. england fans were thrilled with a 6—1victory, but there are no premature plans to celebrate with their famous dancing after this match. well, i'm the best dancer, aren't i? no, i don't dance that quickly. let's first play the game. wiegman will be happy at least that keira walsh is fit again her knee injury not

as bad as first thought, england have had a well—earned rest after the group stages, but they can't afford to sit on their laurels. nigeria will be a very different opposition and they certainly won't be cuddly. so nice to see the manager relaxed after checking her way through that media conference. at that point she knew keira walsh was fit enough to play. she had been back training with the squad. the coach had been playing mind games with the opposition. she is not going to give everything away in this crucial knockout match. a big boost that keira walsh will start. it was a worry she might be out for the rest of the tournament with a knee injury, knee injuries so prevalent injury, knee injuries so prevalent in women football. keira walsh, make no mistake, she is pivotal to invent such a creative midfielder, one of the best in the world. she plays for

barcelona and won the champions league with them. when serina weigman has picked her line up, she only made one change for this match to the match against china where they won 6—1. that is bringing keira walsh back in and dropping katie to the bench. laurenjames also starts. wow! hasn't she been such a star in this tournament? we have seen had growing into herself by predicting a game against china where she scored some beautiful goals. she has not been so well—known up until now. her brother also plays for chelsea, rhys james. the family tradition runs very deep and the talent runs very deep as well. now the world champions america has been knocked out the tournament is wide open ending game will be grabbing that chance with both hands. not long to go until they take on nigeria in this knockout match in brisbane.

an inquest is due to begin today into the death of a 27—year—old man, which his family believe was linked to mould in their privately rented home. luke brooks died from respiratory problems last year. the case will be heard by the same coroner who investigated the death of two—year—old awaab ishak, who died due to mould exposure in 2020. our north of england correspondent, fiona trott, reports. he had plans. he's never going to experience love. he's never going to have children. i've got a great grandchild on the way and he's not going to see it. we've shouted from the top of the mountain, haven't we? nothing. nobody�*s helped us — no—one. what is life like for you at the moment? oh, god. nightmare. absolute nightmare. afraid of the house they were living in. shouldn't be doing that. it's all wet.

we first visited jimmy and patsy about three months ago. it's where luke died. they believe all this killed him. it started, he said, "mum, my chest feels a bit bit sore." i said, "right," i said, "we'll keep an eye on it." and he progressively got worse, to the point where he could hardly breathe. two days after, dead, gone. mould was everywhere, it was even on their clothes. caused by nine years of disrepair, they believe, and constant leaks. second leak. you can see it's going down the walls. i was stood here, i was doing sandwiches for my son. next minute, i felt the drip and the next minute i got a shower. every time they go in the shower, that leaks. that's dangerous, that. i'm frightened of one of them getting electrocuted up there. there's wires there. what has the landlord done about it? nothing. "i'll get it sorted." everything's knackered in here.

waste of space, man. this is luke's room. where was the mould? all around the windows. it's ridiculous. it's freezing cold. when mould forms across here, my mind starts racing and then i start thinking about him and ijust can't stop crying. he was my rock, my best mate. beautiful lad. why couldn't they just sort it out? why couldn't they just fix it? i'd have looked after it. nine years of hell we've had, nine years of hell. surviving the cold. surviving this, surviving that. it shouldn't be about surviving. i've not had a life, me and my husband, or my family. it's just been this house. "what are we going to do? what can...

how can we do...? get out of here. what can we do?" you know what i mean? i've tried. this all feels quite familiar because the hearing into luke's death is being held by the same coroner and in the same court as the awaab ishak inquest, the little toddler who died from mould exposure in his home. and at that inquest, we heard there was concern about this automatic assumption that in houses like these across the uk, it's tenants and their lifestyles that are to blame. and patsy and jimmy have told us they did everything. they said they even used mould treatment themselves. they played their part, they say, and they want this inquest to find out if their landlords and other authorities played their part, too. we've approached the landlord for comment but haven't yet had a response. meanwhile, both the department for levelling up housing and communities and oldham council expressed their deepest condolences and said they were unable to discuss the case until the inquest was over.

jimmy and patsy have now moved. hi, patsy, how are you doing? all right. oh, wow. it's very different, isn't it? it's warm and it even smells different. clea n. no mould. you all right? you look well. hi,jimmy. you all right? yeah. how do you feel? better. the last time you said, "living." you're not living, you're surviving. yeah, i were surviving, we weren't living lives. we were surviving, that was it. do you feel you've got your life back? definitely, yeah. patsy and jimmy say their grief is compounded by their need for answers. they hope the inquest will help them heal. i'm just moving on. i'm moving on. i'm going to try. it's not going to be easy. fiona trott, bbc news oldham.

things people were seeing. notjust that, actually a lack of soap as well. so again, it is the compounding impact of all of these things together. like all of these things, when you are put into a position where you have to make difficult decisions when there are choices. at this point we have had to make the difficult choice of investing our money to ensure young people a say. that is the right thing to do. the board took that decision and stood by at 100% and unanimously. decision and stood by at 10096 and unanimously-— decision and stood by at 100% and unanimously. decision and stood by at 100% and unanimousl . ~ ., ., , ., unanimously. what sort of sum are we talkin: unanimously. what sort of sum are we talking about — unanimously. what sort of sum are we talking about here? _ unanimously. what sort of sum are we talking about here? we _ unanimously. what sort of sum are we talking about here? we are _ unanimously. what sort of sum are we talking about here? we are assessing | talking about here? we are assessing at the moment- _ talking about here? we are assessing at the moment. you _ talking about here? we are assessing at the moment. you can _ talking about here? we are assessing at the moment. you can probably - at the moment. you can probably imagine, we are dealing with a500 people plus, times number of rooms, travel, food. white you must be talking hundreds of thousands of pounds. yes, many.

humans push them out? shoving them forward. rosie doesn't look like she is having much fun, taking it quite seriously, her pleasures. good for them. half past eight and sadly england will have to wait a little bit longer to take home their first netball world cup title, after they were defeated by australia last night in the final. the roses did come away with a silver medal though — for the first time in nearly 50 years. our netball reporter katharine merry is in cape town for us this morning, with the team. morning, katharine. how are they all feeling this morning? good morning. i can tell you that the team are _ good morning. i can tell you that the team are fuelling _ good morning. i can tell you that the team are fuelling a _ good morning. i can tell you that the team are fuelling a lively - good morning. i can tell you that the team are fuelling a lively and they are buoyant, and rightly so. they have made history, inspiring netball players of all ages. how are you feeling this morning? cheering

is that their playmaker keira walsh, who missed the win over china, is back in sarina weigman's starting line up in brisbane. england are hoping to make it four wins from four, nigeria won't make it easy, they've already beaten the hosts australia at the tournament. it's currently 0—0. live coverage on bbc one. arsenal manager mikel arteta says his side have overcome a mental hurdle by beating treble—winners manchester city to win the community shield at wembley. a brilliant goalfrom cole palmer in the second half looked to have won it for city, but leanrdo trossard's effort in the 11th minute of injury time took a fortunate deflection and, at 1—1, it went straight to penalties, fabio vieira converting to give arsenal the first piece of silverware of the season. it's great. that's the reason why we're here at the end is to win trophies for this football club and make it successful.

and just the joy of seeing so many happy people and proud people, and the connection, again, doing it in front of our supporters as well in wembley feels very different, and it was great. pep guardiola wasn't pleased with the amount of stoppage time played at wembley, but he'll have to get used to it. new rules around stoppages are now in place in english football with officials saying they'll be more accurate in calculating the exact time taken for goals, substitutions, injuries and so on. there were 13 minutes of added time at sunderland yesterday for example, but it wasn't enough to stop them losing to ipswich, who were promoted last season — george hirst with what turned out to the the winner. it finished 2—1. leeds united, back in the championship after relegation last season, onlyjust avoided defeat. they were 2—0 down to cardiff at elland road before staging a comeback. crysencio summerville with the equaliser five minutes into added time here. leicester city's premier league experience showed as they began life back in the championship with a 2—1 victory over coventry. they went behind early in the second half before kiernan dewsbury—hall

scored twice in 10 minutes. there was a treat for the away fans in the scottish premiership, as st mirren won a five—goal thriller against hibs. st mirren were 2—0 up, then it was 2—2, before alex grieve eventually settled it in the final minute of normal time. it was another successful night for great britain at the cycling world championships in glasgow with five para—cycling gold medals in the velodrome. a former para climbing and para triathlon world champion, frances brown now has another world title to put on her cv. she also broke the world record as she won gold in the c1 individual pursuit. another new name to british cycling is 19—year—old archie atkinson who won the men's ca scratch race. a great performance from him. afterwards he dedicated his win to his american friend mountain bike rider magnus white, who died in a training accident just a week ago aged 17.

it is looking drier and warmerfor a couple of days. temperatures are rising on wednesday in the south, thursday for all of us, then a cold front comes in overnight thursday and friday introducing some rain but fresher conditions. today we have this ridge of high pressure keeping things fairly settled and then this clutch of fronts bringing thicker cloud, patchy light rain and drizzle into south—west wales and south—west england later. today you could catch a shower almost anywhere. if you do they could be sharp but the most frequent ones will be in the north of scotland. temperatures 1a in the north, to 21 in the south. overnight this clutch of front will bring in drizzle, hilland this clutch of front will bring in drizzle, hill and coastalfog, and it will push north and east. a dry

night in northern england and scotland. the wind strengthening. temperatures 10—15. under all of the cloud it will start to feel quite humid. tomorrow we pick up all of this cloud, patchy light rain and drizzle, it will drift east, it could break up in parts of south—west england and wales later in the day. in northern england, northern ireland and scotland we will see the most of the sunshine. one or two showers in the northern isles and it will be windy, particularly in shetland. temperatures 12—19. into the evening, the rain pushes into east anglia, some clear skies but also a weather front waiting in the wings. here it is. a fairly weak affair but bringing some more cloud, but high pressure is building as well during the course of wednesday. here is the

weather front, the course of wednesday. here is the weatherfront, southern england, weather front, southern england, wales weatherfront, southern england, wales and to northern ireland and the midlands seeing some of that and eventually the south—east. to the north and east, drier conditions, a fair bit of sunshine, but still windy in the far north and north—east of scotland. but temperatures, warmer air are starting to push further north. what is happening is thejet starting to push further north. what is happening is the jet stream starting to push further north. what is happening is thejet stream has changed position and it is to the north of us. we would expect it to be here at this stage in the british summer. high pressure starts to take over the weather. it will drag in all of this warm air from the new continent. notjust across england and wales but into scotland and northern ireland. thursday starts with a weak weather front, cloud, it will tend to break up so more of us will tend to break up so more of us will see sunshine. lighter winds. the cold front waiting in the wings has not come our wayjust yet. temperatures 26 in london and in

western scotland we could easily see that as well. temperatures hiking up. but the cold front comes overnight into friday. bringing some heavy rain in the north and west. the wind has changed direction. on friday we will see rain in the north—west, something drier behind it, but look at the temperatures, slipping from 26 back down to 19—20, 21. it's the secretive military base best known for conducting research into chemical warfare — but scientists at porton down are taking on a new and, as yet, unidentified enemy. inside a set of laboratories, experts are preparing for what is known as disease x ? or the next pandemic virus. our health correspondent dominic hughes was given rare access to the facility. the delicate task of protecting

the nation's health. this is one of the laboratories at porton down, where scientists are analysing current threats — new variants of covid, for example — and trying to identify new ones. inside these purpose—built labs, more than 200 scientists working for the uk health security agency are helping to develop and test vaccines against a range of diseases. it's vital work to keep us all safe. we've got, in many respects, the toughestjob in the world, which is to protect health against infectious diseases and environmental hazards and it is tough because we know the risks of new and emerging infections, including those of pandemic potential, is increasing. we maintain a constant state of vigilance but what we also do here in our laboratories is the research to understand those threats. as and when they arrive,

we are able to control them rapidly and effectively, before they have the kind of enormous impact on our lives that covid—19 did. for decades, scientists at porton down have been involved in medical research, as well as the work on chemical and biological warfare for which the centre is perhaps better known. archive: the first apparatus in the world for growing - antibiotics continuously. but the coronavirus pandemic presented a new and urgent challenge. during the pandemic, laboratories like this one played an absolutely vital role in assessing how effective the vaccines were in combating the coronavirus, and that work continues today. but as well as monitoring how effective existing vaccines are against new covid variants, the new vaccine development and evaluation centre is looking at emerging threats for which no vaccine yet exists. one of those is crimean—congo haemorrhagic fever, a virus that is spread by the bite of an infected tick and is fatal

in about 30% of cases. a serious outbreak occurred in afghanistan in 2017 but the disease is widespread across africa, asia, the middle east and the balkans. changes to climate and the way we live mean viruses like this one could find a way to the uk. but equally, the next pandemic could be caused by a virus that has yet to be identified — what experts call disease x. well, covid, of course, is not a one—off. it's a pathogen that's arisen, but in a rising tide of risk. so, we have climate change, we've got mosquitoes, we've got ticks, we've got different habitats, we've got urbanisation with closeness between animals and humans, so this unit here is designed to try and get ahead of that curve, to identify the pathogens that may cause risk and then, to stop them before they do their harm.

dangers known and unknown. these scientists will be working to make sure we are prepared for both. dominic hughes, bbc news, porton down. fascinating stuff. the lionesses will be hoping their match this morning doesn't end in dreaded penalties, but the pressure of taking them is exactly what inspired playwright james graham's latest stage show. dear england follows the story of the men's football squad under the leadership of gareth southgate, dramatising some of their most testing times. let's take a look. cheering. whistle. and england are through to the knock—out stages, then, the last 16. but steady yourselves.

we haven't won a knockout game for 12 years. that's it, it's penalties. colombia will fancy their chances here. england, remember, have neverwon a world cup penalty shoot—out. hold onto your hats. ok, you all know who is taking them, that is not going to change. you all know where you're shooting, that shouldn't change. don't turn away from the keeper, don't listen to the crowd, and, whatever happens, you are a team and you are on the greatest stage on earth so enjoy it. i am using that word "enjoy". this is a story and you are the storytellers.
