with a first ever win at a grand slam in the us open first round. today and tomorrow will be days of bright spells, showers, some of which will be thundering. we have rain coming in from the south during thursday. all the details rain coming in from the south during thursday. all the details later. it's tuesday the 29th of august. holidaymakers are facing days of travel disruption after a technical fault hit the uk's air traffic control system over the bank holiday. the problem has now been fixed, but thousands of passengers are still stranded. airlines have apologised and are urging people to check their flights before going to the airport. jon donnison reports. it was a nightmare bank holiday for air travellers with hundreds of flights cancelled and many more delayed. and it's not over yet. we were looking at alternative flights. there was nothing available from ba before thursday. and as we're scrolling through comparison sites, flights were disappearing.

we've now arranged three trains and a bus via brussels and the channel to arrive back in the uk at 10am on wednesday morning. well, we should be in london right now, but, as it stands, we're still in valencia for the foreseeable future until they tell us otherwise. we have no information from easyjet and we're just waiting on that information. they're among tens of thousands of british passengers who find themselves stranded overseas and either scrambling to rebook flights or find alternative routes home. it's been a really fun day. the original plan was to fly from dusseldorf to london heathrow. obviously, flights all cancelled everywhere. i am now on a trainjourney to belgium and then to luxembourg and then to france and then to calais and then a ferry and then dover and then london and then bed and a cup of tea.

and there are warnings the disruption could last for days. many planes and their crews are now not where they should be. at one of the busiest times of the year, getting them back in place will take time. airports are advising passengers not to set off unless they've confirmed their flights are still operating. and an investigation into what went wrong with the country's air traffic control system has now been launched. our absolute priority is safety. i would like to apologise for the impact on the travelling public and to tell you that our teams will continue to work to get you on your way as soon as we can. but travel experts say airlines are unlikely to offer compensation to passengers because they can argue the disruption was out of their control — although they should pay for expenses like extra hotel costs. jon donnison is at heathrow.

how long is the disruption expected to last and what's the advice for passengers? it was awful yesterday and i think it will be pretty bad today. the first flights normally take off around now from heathrow but ijust looked at the departure board online and could see around one third of flights in the first hour were either cancelled or delayed. a similar picture at gatwick airport and probably at airports around the country. i think the truth is the disruption will last a long time. one problem is that planes and crew are not in places they should be which will take time to get them back. also, all the passengers trying to reschedule, they are doing so at one of the busiest times of year. a plane going off behind me, someone is managing to get away.

watch the airports are saying is do not come to the airport unless you know you can confirm with the airline that your flight is taking off. some airlines are saying that if you were due to fly today you can rebook for free, if you were due to fly today you can rebook forfree, including british airways. details of travel advice you might need can be found on the bbc website. you might need can be found on the bbc website-— bbc website. thanks. we have the travel expert _ bbc website. thanks. we have the travel expert simon _ bbc website. thanks. we have the travel expert simon calder- bbc website. thanks. we have the travel expert simon calder talking | travel expert simon calder talking to us in around 15 minutes to answer your questions. now more of the news. overnight, london has become the world's largest pollution charging area, after the ultra—low emission zone — known as ulez — was expanded across the entire capital. the mayor of london has introduced the scheme to improve air quality, but critics say the benefits don't outweigh the financial impact. our transport correspondent

katy austin has the latest. these were some of the first vehicles to enter the expanded ultra low emission zone. a charge of £12.50 now applies to drive older, more polluting vehicles in any london borough. yesterday, where i'm stood would have beenjust on the boundary of ulez. today, it's not, it covers a much wider area. the mayor of london, sadiq khan, and clean air campaigners have insisted it is a necessary step to help cut air pollution and improve public health. but the expansion has faced criticism, including the financial impact on people in businesses. enfield in north london is in the same for the first time. we have had to change both our cars. but if it's going to help the environment, then i think that's a good thing. we've still got the old model of car, so it's not ulez—compliant, but it's going to be 12.50 every day. but i'm going to have to make either

a lot of changes and start walking. i mean, i take my son to school, i go to visit my elderly mum. it doesn't sound a lot i but it is when you have to pay that every day. my grandson's school, my family, they all live over this area. - destinations including heathrow airport and wembley stadium are now within ulez. this car dealer, a 20—minute drive outside the m25, has noticed a trend. we have seen a large number of customers currently driving noncompliant vehicles feeling it a necessity, because we are very close to the expansion zone here, that compliant vehicles are standing strong in terms of price and, actually, the availability of compliant vehicles becoming less and less as well. londoners can apply for up to £2000 to scrap a noncompliant car. some councils that border london are refusing to put up signs warning drivers they are approaching the same. i'm not going to condone it by putting the mayor's signs, his ulez signs, on hertfordshire land, or cameras. i'm not going to do that.

i think clean air is a human right, not a privilege. the london mayor has continued to say widening the charging zone was a difficult decision, but the right one. a growing number of clean air zones have sprung up around the country. how best to improve air quality without hitting people too hard in the wallet has become a hot political topic. after months of debate, the big ulez expansion has now arrived. katy austin, bbc news. the family of a couple who died after getting stuck in their car in deep floodwater in liverpool have said they are devastated and heartbroken. elaine and philip marco were due to celebrate their 54th wedding anniversary next week. merseyside police are investigating the incident. an inquest will open today into the death of ten—year—old sara sharif, who was found dead at her home in woking earlier this month. police want to speak to sara's father, his partner and brother, who it's believed flew to pakistan

what the mary dia reports say and therefore this morning they would not confirm that. the important point is for now, several weeks after sara's death, and we still know the pakistan police here have not been able to locate those three individuals. regional leaders of the spanish football federation have asked its president, luis rubiales, to resign after he kissed player jenni hermoso on the lips following the women's world cup final. mr rubiales has faced widespread criticism over the incident, but has so far refused to step down. our spain correspondent guy hedgecoe has the latest. chanting. the last week has been one of angerfor many in spain. this protest was against the man at the centre of the country's football crisis, luis rubiales.

but the backlash against him also seems to have taken on a broader meaning. "this is a very important moment," said this woman. "it's difficult to capture behaviour like this on camera." i think it's important to raise a voice. all of the people that agree with the feminist movement and to fight this injustice that the girl and all of the women have suffered. this is the now infamous kiss that mr rubiales gave the playerjenni hermoso after spain's world cup victory and which she says was nonconsensual. fifa has provisionally suspended mr rubiales. prosecutors are investigating him for possible sexual assault and, now, his own federation is calling on him to resign. mr rubiales' mother has locked herself in a church and begun a hunger strike against what she claimed was a witch

hunt against her son. but for the left—wing government, he represents a mindset at odds with modern spain. translation: spanish society is profoundly feminist. - it is at the forefront of equal rights and an example on a global level, which is why these behaviours are so shocking. the spanish government has asked this tribunal to open proceedings against mr rubiales in the hope that eventually he will be removed from office. the involvement of this court and the spanish government reflects how this whole affair has now gone way beyond the limits of the football world. whatever the future holds for mr rubiales, this crisis has already shaken spanish society. meanwhile, the country is trying to remind itself that this all began with a remarkable sporting triumph. guy hedgecoe, bbc news, madrid.

donald trump has been told he will face trial told he will face trial in march next year on federal charges of attempting to cheat the 2020 presidential election. mr trump's lawyers tried to delay the case until 2026, but the judge said he was not entitled to unlimited time to prepare. hundreds of passengers will leave a p&o cruise ship early after it collided with another boat during a storm off the spanish island of mallorca yesterday, damaging a lifeboat. p&o said a total of 321 passengers would be flying back to their starting point. sir eltonjohn has spent a night in hospital after falling at his villa in the south of france. a spokesperson for the singer says he's now back home and in good health. the 76—year—old has been spending the summer in france, after performing a headline set at glastonbury festival.

what is the weather looking like? good morning. good morning. it is looking mixed today with bright spells, sunny spells and showers and it will be like that tomorrow. on thursday, rain from the south. but the weekend at the moment looks dry. a cloudy start for many. this front is taking cloud and rain with it. it could rejuvenate in the afternoon producing heavy rain in wales and the south west, midlands and home counties and east anglia. behind it, it should brighten up with fewer showers. we have showers across scotland. most will have light winds and temperatures ranging from 14—21 north to south. through the evening and overnight, the front continues to drift southwards. clear skies

behind. showers across northern ireland, north wales, northern england and northern scotland. the overnight low 8—13. if you are camping, it will feel quite cold, especially in rural areas. tomorrow, we have dry weather, some sunshine but we still have showers. low pressure that has dominated pushing off into the north sea. temperatures on wednesday ranging from 1a in the north to about 20 as we pushed down to the south. that is when we see rain coming in on thursday from the south but not necessarily everywhere will see it. the papers, most of which focus on the problems with uk air traffic. the metro also carries vibrant images of notting hill carnival, which it nicknames "notting thrill".

they are great pictures. the times features news that men will soon be offered blood pressure checks in places like barbershops. it comes as a study reveals men are twice as likely to suffer heart attacks than women. the mirror looks into claims some rail firms have admitted the closure of rail ticket offices will impact elderly and disabled people most, putting "vulnerable passengers at risk". we saw the notting hill carnival, one of the brightest events over the weekend. there was also this. colourful and a bit messy. the 15th annual world gravy wrestling championships took place yesterday near bacup in lancashire yesterday. the international competition saw 16 men and eight women battle in the ring that was filled with around 2,000 litres of gravy.

calculated over 1200 flights cancelled which represents 200,000 people who are waking up this morning where they did not expect to be. forsome, it is morning where they did not expect to be. for some, it is not clear when they will get back and i am afraid things will get worse before they get better. looking at cancellations today, british airways out of heathrow and easyjet, mainly out of gatwick, have cancelled 60 flights each. that represents another 20,000 people booked to travel today who will not be able to, let alone all the people desperately trying to get back. ryanair, 20 cancellations today, although many more yesterday. that is the first i have heard someone say it will get worse. how long will this level of disruption last? �* , . ., long will this level of disruption last? �*, , , ., last? ok, let's take the disruption toda . last? ok, let's take the disruption today- this _ last? ok, let's take the disruption today- this is _ last? ok, let's take the disruption today. this is because _ last? ok, let's take the disruption today. this is because aircraft - last? ok, let's take the disruption today. this is because aircraft and j today. this is because aircraft and flight crew not to mention

passengers are in the wrong places, therefore for example, the munich flight from heathrow on lufthansa is not going because it did not get in last night. that is repeated in many locations. by cancelling these flights, yes it is disruptive to 20,000 people, but it also means the airlines can restore their schedules so that hopefully, the next few days, bear in mind they will be extremely busy with friday, saturday and sunday looking tricky as people get back for the end of the school holiday in england and wales. things will start calming down. i have asked the airlines. i do not have responses yet, whether they will lay on rescue flights particularly to places like the canaries, turkey, which do not have many flights, there are few spare seats. it might be that we will see rescue flights

put in. meanwhile, let's be clear what passengers' entitlements are. the airline is obliged to pay for a hotel if it cancels the flight for as long as it takes until you can get home. i have heard various things about airline saying you can only have one night. that is tosh. if you are coming in from europe, a if you are coming infrom europe, a uk airline, they are if you are coming in from europe, a uk airline, they are supposed to provide meals also. keep receipts and send those in. no alcohol, please, on those. they need to get you back as soon as possible even if it means paying for the extra hot like carl is hoping to get from amsterdam to luton. luton to amsterdam to luton. luton to amsterdam today and back is one of the $4 on easyjet and one of the many flights british airways has cancelled also, i am sorry to say.

use them, even for the shortest distances, or risk getting a £180 fine. it has been introduced to reduce pollution, and no grace period has been announced for drivers to get used to the new zone, which means drivers can expect frames from today if they do not pgy- frames from today if they do not pay. and drivers are being warned about so—called copycat websites when the go to pay ulez online, because a legal website have been treated to look like the transport for london website. they will collect money from drivers but it will not actually pay the ulez. tfl says it is working with search engines to remove the sites. there will be people _ engines to remove the sites. there will be people who _ engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are _ engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled - engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled by i will be people who are fooled by copycat websites whatever it is, whether it is doing with tfl or your bank. you have to double check, it is an unfortunate symptom of modern life, and as i say, is a public institution, we do everything we can to work with the internet companies to work with the internet companies to remove them when we identify

them. a large clean—up has already started to clean up after the notting hill carnival. around 2 million people on the streets in vibrant costumes and to hear sounds in tasty flavours of the caribbean. it was overwhelmingly peaceful over the three days, but as carnival close, two men were taken to hospital with stab wounds. because of problems with air traffic control yesterday, disruption likely to continue for some days yet, so if you're flying, do check the status of your flight before you leave home. now a look at the tube board, a good service on all lines. time now for a look at the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a largely cloudy start this morning. we will, however, see it break to give some sunny spells, but also some well scattered showers. now, the cloud this morning, you see, is fairly thick. but like i said, it will break up temperatures getting

up to around 21 celsius, showers more likely as we head into the afternoon and the cloud will thicken as we head into the evening. that's an approaching cold front, bringing perhaps some heavier showers as we head through the first part of the night, clearing gradually through the early hours, and then by dawn revealing clear skies. so under those clear skies, temperatures a little fresher, 8 celsius the minimum temperature. now for tomorrow, a bright start with some sunshine, but then our next front moves further south. so any sunshine we get first thing will give way to a bit more cloud for the afternoon. still some sunny spells, still the chance of some scattered showers tomorrow, but fewer perhaps than today. and temperatures getting up to 20 celsius. now, as we head further through the week, conditions to stay rather unsettled, we will see some sunshine, showers at times, and temperatures staying in the low 20s. more on today's ulez expansion on your bbc local radio station this morning. that's all for now. i'll be back in half an hour. bye— bye.

hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. let's focus now on london's ultra—low emission zone, which overnight was expanded to include the whole of the capital. ben's in sutton this morning, and he's been looking at the details. good morning, and welcome to sutton in south london, i am now within the new expanded ultra low emission zone, which came into effect at midnight this morning. you can see a sign over my shoulder declaring that the design is now in force, and you can also see some processed graffiti here. —— protest graffiti. just over there is the royal marsden cancer hospital, an important facility in the area and one of a number of significant locations that sit within the expanded zone. other notable ones are heathrow airport and wembley stadium.

ulez isn't new — it's been around since 2019. it was expanded in 2021 up to london's north and south circular roads. now it covers all london boroughs, going up to the m25 in some places. there's a charge of £12.50 a day for driving a vehicle in the zone if it doesn't meet certain emissions standards, so older, more polluting cars. people who live in london — but not those visiting — can get money for scrapping their non—compliant vehicle and getting a new one. for cars, grants are up to £2,000. there's more for vans and minibuses. the mayor of london sadiq khan says £160 million is available for the scheme. 13,000 applications have been approved. the london mayor says ulez is meant to improve air quality and reduce health problems. but there has been substantial

opposition to the expansion across greater london — five conservative—led councils lost a legal challenge. sutton was not among them, but they say they have no tube and a high number of people driving to work. i'm joined now by councillor ruth dombey. the scheme is meant to improve the air quality that will benefit the people you represent. why are you so strongly opposed to it? there people you represent. why are you so strongly opposed to it?— strongly opposed to it? there seems to be some doubt _ strongly opposed to it? there seems to be some doubt about _ strongly opposed to it? there seems to be some doubt about the - strongly opposed to it? there seems to be some doubt about the science. j to be some doubt about the science. some scientists are saying it is not as clear, but i am not a scientist, i will stick to what i know. the mayor needs to come here and understand the level of anger people are expressing, notjust in sutton but across the whole of outer london. he does not understand how outer london works. sally is just across the road, we are standing neara across the road, we are standing near a cancer hospital. people

coming here will be fined if their cars are not compliant, people coming from all over the country. this hospital saved my life twice, and the idea of cancer patients being fined is extraordinary. it is fundamentally unfair on people who cannot afford to change their cars come on people who do shift work and have to drive, for people coming for business... but have to drive, for people coming for lousiness- - -— have to drive, for people coming for lousiness- - -_ business... but for those struggling to relace business... but for those struggling to replace the _ business... but for those struggling to replace the cars, _ business... but for those struggling to replace the cars, there _ business... but for those struggling to replace the cars, there is - business... but for those struggling to replace the cars, there is the - to replace the cars, there is the scrappage scheme that provides support of up to £2000 to scrap an older car. �* ., , , older car. and it has been very difficult to _ older car. and it has been very difficult to apply _ older car. and it has been very difficult to apply it _ older car. and it has been very difficult to apply it for - older car. and it has been very difficult to apply it for that - difficult to apply it for that scheme. just a week ago, the mayor has finally extended it so that all londoners can apply. you only get £2000 on the eligibility is quite difficult. so all those blue badge holders who have noncompliant cars will not be able to use their cars any more. fin will not be able to use their cars any more-— will not be able to use their cars an more. ,., ., ,., any more. on the point about the cancer hospital, _ any more. on the point about the cancer hospital, is _ any more. on the point about the cancer hospital, is there - any more. on the point about the cancer hospital, is there not - any more. on the point about the cancer hospital, is there not a - cancer hospital, is there not a possible solution where an exemption could be made for patients travelling there, rather than see scrap the whole expansion for the sake of access to the hospital, some

not your car qualifies and whether or not you have to pay that dealer charge. then, for now, thank you very much indeed. we will hear from sadiq khan and from the transport secretary in the next hour here on breakfast. in march 1980, 123 people died when a floating oil platform capsized off the norwegian coast. 23 of the workers were british. more than a0 years later, the families of those involved still don't know exactly what happened that night, and this week they'll travel to norway in search of answers. mark mcalindon reports. the capsized oil platform alexander callon, adrift after the worst ever the north sea oil disaster. already, 38 bodies have been found and hope is fading for a hundred men still missing.

bbc news on the day after the floating hotel keeled over and sank in dreadful weather. one of the men missing that night was cleator moor man keith hunter, whose body has never been found. fenced in beside the town hall is the only memorial to keith and for others, a poignant place for one of his sons, wayne. it's like a headstone that was obviously we never retrieved our dad. so i go at least once a year. i definitely missed the father in my life. you have no—one to turn to. a troubled adolescence, wayne tried to bury the memories of what had happened. butjust last year, a meeting with norwegian relatives of keelin victims kindled a sense that he had to try to find justice, however painful.

many sleepless nights, and i'm still having sleepless nights now. it's just wrong in so many ways of how there was no follow up with with families. the sea king helicopterfrom raf boomer in northumberland was the first to be called just a0 minutes after the accident. despite a rescue operation, including the raf, only 89 men survived. it's a tragedy that has echoed down through the generations. that experience of trauma is all too familiar for the man who's organised families to come together to fight for the full truth. there was a study made in 2005 showing that 37% of the survivors still suffered from severe psychological damages. fighting for facts is a very important element in the healing process for these these traumas that people are experiencing. survivors and relatives dispute the findings of a 1980s inquiry into the disaster that was held behind closed doors. and the kielland network has invited british families to norway to increase the pressure with activity and network in both places. it will also be helpful in making british politicians and parliamentarians more aware of what has been happening and that the push for more

answers will be stronger. if we connect that way. you're going to norway to meet otherfamilies. what do you hope that trip brings? hope to get out of that meeting with the norwegians? just answers so we can move on, move on in life. but until then, no—one can move on. the truth's massive. everyone deserves the truth. it will be part of closure. mark mcalindon, bbc news. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. good morning. imagine waking up to this each morning. it is plockton in the highlands, some clear skies here, but for many of us, a cloudy start, and the forecast for today is sunshine and showers. we already have some showers around, parts of wales, south—west england, the channel islands, and heavier ones across parts of scotland. and what

is happening is low pressure is driving our weather. we have this front sinking south, taking cloud and showers with it, but if you follow the front round, it is coming back into the north of scotland, and all that will be sinking southwards as we go through the course of today. so a mixture of sunshine and showers. we start off with all this cloud across england and also wales, our weak weather front sinking south this morning, taking some showers with it, but it looks like it will rejuvenate into the afternoon, so some heavier rain coming in across wales, the south—west, the midlands, the home counties, and eventually into east anglia. to the north, we have showers sinking south as well, wrapped around that area of low pressure. in between all of this will be bright spells or indeed sunny spells, and we are looking at light winds as well. tempt is a bit down on her we would expect them to be at this stage in august. 1a to about 21 celsius north to south. heading through the evening and overnight, there goes our weather front, continuing to push down into

the south—eastern corner before clearing away. further showers heading south across parts of northern england, north wales, northern ireland, and then another batch heading south across northern scotland. but in between, some clear skies, and it will be a cooler night than last night. these temperatures represent what you can expect in towns and cities. if you are camping in the countryside, it will feel cooler than that. so tomorrow, we start off with a lot of dry weather, even a fair bit of sunshine around. and a ridge of high pressure across us. some showers developing a bit more as we go through the course of the afternoon, could even be thundery in east anglia, but many of us will miss the showers, you can already see what is waiting in the wind is coming our way on thursday. but before that, temperatures 1a to 20 celsius again at north to south. so this is what is coming our way during thursday, and other area of low pressure with its attendant fronts, coming in from the west,

they will drift eastward through the course of the day. on thursday, we start off with a lot of dry weather, if a bit of sunshine, and you can see where the fronts are out towards the west. bringing in some rain, especially across southern counties and along the south coast, that could be thundery rain, and later in the day will get into south—west scotland and also north west england. these are the temperatures, 14 to about 18 or 19 celsius. so temperatures are slipping a little bit more. slipping into autumn, thank you very much, carol. time now for all the sport news. good morning. six british tennis players in action today, but it's lily miyazaki who has grabbed the headlines so far. after three rounds of qualifying, the world number 199 won her first ever match at a grand slam at the age of 27. she beat margarita betova in straight sets, picking up

an opening round pay cheque of £98,000, which mean she no longer has to travel to events on her own. she shares a coach with fellow gb playerjodie burrage, but that could be about to change for her after this win. one of the favourites for the women's title, the world number one iga swiatek, enjoyed a new york bagel. 6—0 she won the first set — hence the bagel — and dropped only eight points and one game in the entire match, which was over in less than an hour. novak djokovic, back at the us open

for the first time since covid restrictions were implented, dropped just five games in his first round win against frenchman alexandre muller. that victory means he'll take back the world number one ranking from carlos alcaraz. british runner eilish mccolgan has revealed she spent five days in hospital last week, with a "fluid leak" in her spine. she'd already pulled out of the world athletics championships in budapest with a knee injury, but she described this separate issue as "distressing," and she'd have to be "very patient" with her recovery. she won gold at the commonwealth games last summer, and a fit mccolgan would be a strong medal contender at next year's paris olympics. geraint thomas' hopes in the vuelta a espana are disappearing. he finished well behind the stage 3 winner and now trails by a minute and 11 seconds. belgium's remco evenepoel

was first over the line, pulling clear of the tour de france winnerjonas vingegaard. that gave him the leader's red jersey, but he didn't slow down quickly enough, crashing through a group of spectators and photographers, suffering a cut to his face. and finally, we know football fans love a song on the terraces, often taking well—known songs and reworking the lyrics to reflect people at their club. tottenham have done that to a robbie williams track about their new manager ange postecoglou. and the man himself has only gone and sung it. # and through it all, we'll play the way we want to # with big ange postecoglou # whether i'm right or wrong # it's big angeball # see, you can keep your pochettino # conte and mourinho

# and even christian gross # cos everywhere we go # i'm loving big ange instead.# i guess i'm a spurs fan now, then. he is not really, is he? he is a port vale fan. unbelievable, to get the 9 ange postecoglou into a song, how do you manage that? unbelievable work of genius. i think perhaps they do it could be on the cards this season. —— the name ange

postecoglou. john, thank you very much indeed. new estimates by unnamed us officials of ukrainian casualties suggest a dramatic rise in the country's number of dead. the bbc�*s quentin sommerville has been on the front line in the east, to where the grim task of counting the dead has become a daily reality. he's met two ukrainian women, who, despite suffering their own losses, have vowed to keep serving the war effort. for oxana, it is her husband she mourns. forfive years, they for oxana, it is her husband she mourns. for five years, they were together, and the grief is still raw. pavlo was a fitness champion who volunteered to fight. a russian air strike destroyed his convoy last november. translation: honestly, it is still very hard — november. translation: honestly, it is still very hard to _ november. translation: honestly, it is still very hard to accept _ november. translation: honestly, it is still very hard to accept that - november. translation: honestly, it is still very hard to accept that he - is still very hard to accept that he is still very hard to accept that he is gone. it is only when i am here that it sinks in. ifeel is gone. it is only when i am here that it sinks in. i feel he is gone. it is only when i am here that it sinks in. ifeel he is is gone. it is only when i am here that it sinks in. i feel he is still somewhere. that he is still alive,

thousands of other ukrainians, oxana had very little time to mourn. instead, she chose to fight. what we hear from a lot of soldiers on the front line is that the time to grieve will come when the war is over. on the bbc news at six this evening. the regional leaders of the spanish football federation have asked its president, luis rubiales, to resign after he kissed playerjenni hermoso on the lips following the women's world cup final. mr rubiales has faced widespread criticism over the incident, but has so far refused to step down. we're joined now by the spanish footballjournalist semra hunter. good morning. first of all, what has been the reaction in spain to this incident? .. .,

been the reaction in spain to this incident? ., ., , incident? huge reaction, actually. most people _ incident? huge reaction, actually. most people were _ incident? huge reaction, actually. most people were angered, - incident? huge reaction, actually. | most people were angered, upset, embarrassed. there were many men across wider society who said this man does not represent us in any way, shape orform. lots of man does not represent us in any way, shape or form. lots of people said as a spaniard, this man does not represent our values of our ethics, so most people were disgusted and outraged by his behaviour, for many it was the straw that broke the camel's back, why there has been such a backlash in terms of this turning into a #metoo moment, in terms of galvanising a bit of a feminist movement momentum here which already existed but it has now been brought to life with a lot of attention, a lot of focus, and a lot of passion as well, you have men and women across society coming together on this, plenty of protest as well on the street, a huge one last night in madrid, and i think quite frankly, people feel as though enough is enough, they are

tired of this kind of acts of sexual abuse and sexual aggression happening all the time, hidden in plain sight, and people decided we have to call this out and do something about it, because sadly it is a reflection of a wider issue here in society and in culture. it relates to sexism and misogyny. brute relates to sexism and misogyny. we can see a huge amount of pressure for him to resign, but so far no sign of that, what might happen next? , ., sign of that, what might happen next? , ._ ., , sign of that, what might happen next? , ., , ., next? yesterday there was an emergency — next? yesterday there was an emergency meeting _ next? yesterday there was an emergency meeting called i next? yesterday there was an - emergency meeting called between the original presidents of the spanish football federation, they were in a meeting for about six hours in the end, and finally a statement was released, and in short, they asked for rubiales to stand down, unanimously asked him to resign. they said in light of everything that has been happening, the damage he has done to the reputation of spanish football, the fact that they are of course working to win the candidacy, winner of the bid to host the men's world cup in 2030, that it

was time for him to do so. they however cannot force him to be removed at this point, because they are past the back over to the administrative court. now that it is in the hands of the court, they are the ones who will determine the outcome in the future of luis rubiales. if it is that he is to be suspended for a further time or ban him altogether. the other option is that rubiales now stands down, the ball is in his court. he could decide that he will resign in the end. he has been very clear up until now that he is not going to back down, remove himself from his position, but now given everything that has been going on, and on top of that, there was a news story breaking today from the daily mail in the uk, which is suggesting that they are trying to have fifa ban him for 15 years, or people within the federation are trying to have him banned for 15 years. so a lot is happening, he has got his back up

against the wall, he does not really have a lot of choice at this point, so i guess itjust depends on how he handles everything, how he feels about it, if he does the right thing at this point, and in fact does resign, or if he decides he wants to carry on fighting this battle the way he has said he is going to do. semra hunter, thank you very much indeed. . ., semra hunter, thank you very much indeed. ., ,, , ., there was an explosion of music and vibrant colours in the streets of west london this bank holiday weekend, as an estimated two million people gathered for the notting hill carnival. this year's festival held a special significance, because it marked 75 years since the first windrush arrivals to the uk. tarah welsh reports. representing the commonwealth of dominica today. from barbados, a tiny island in the sun. it's a lovely place. we're from trinidad.

jamaica. guyana. st vincent. just some of the flags you see on the streets at notting hill carnival. it's a huge weekend of dance, music and costume in west london. but its roots are in the caribbean. carnival weekend is massive for so many londoners, but particularly for those with caribbean heritage, and this year is particularly significant. it's the 75th diamond anniversary, which celebrates the docking of the hmt empire windrush docking at tilbury docks. we are celebrating the elders today, and giving them the the welcome that we would have loved to have them to have got when they came to britain. we met 95—year—old dudley on the bus. he came here from kingston, jamaica in the �*50s.

so what does carnival mean to you then? well, enjoyment. nice to see that. nice enjoyment. my grandparents were part of the windrush generation, so it's time to, like, look back to them, rememberthem. as i've got older, it's more important to try to, like, embrace the culture. carnival culture is heritage. i've been coming since i was a kid and now i get to bring my own daughter and let her feel the vibes as well. and what does the windrush generation mean to you? the windrush generation, they mean a lot to me. my grandmother's are part of that generation and i know that it is, without her, i wouldn't be here. what's it like seeing all these

young people wearing their flags? it's beautiful. absolutely fantastic. it shows that it brings people together. music and food just brings people together, isn't it? and it's absolutely wonderful. the carnival is now one of the biggest in the world. but for some, it's a time and a place to celebrate and take pride in their heritage. tara walsh, bbc news. ime now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. london's ultra low emission zone is just over seven hours old. it came into force at midnight after months of fierce opposition. it applies to all noncompliant vehicles travelling through london boroughs, and the drivers have to pay £12 £12.50 a day to use them, even for the shortest distances, or risk getting a £180 fine. it has been introduced to reduce pollution— no grace period has been announced for drivers to get used to the new zone, which means drivers can expect frames from today if they do not pgy- drivers are being warned

about so—called copycat websites when the go to pay ulez online, because illegal websites have been treated to look like the transport for london website. they will collect money from drivers but it will not actually pay the ulez. tfl says it is working with search engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled by copycat websites whatever it is, whether it is doing with tfl or your bank. you have to double check, it is an unfortunate symptom of modern life, and as i say, it's a public institution, we do everything we can to work with the internet companies to remove them when we identify them. a large clear—up has already started to clean up after the notting hill carnival. around 2 million people were on the streets in vibrant costumes and to hear sounds and tases of the caribbean. it was overwhelmingly peaceful over the three days, but as carnival close, two men were taken to hospital with stab wounds.

because of problems with air traffic control yesterday, disruption likely to continue for some days yet, so if you're flying, do check the status of your flight. now a look at the tube board, a good service on all lines. time now for a look at the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a largely cloudy start this morning. we will, however, see it break to give some sunny spells, but also some well scattered showers. now, the cloud this morning, you see, is fairly thick. but like i said, it will break up. temperatures getting up to around 21 celsius, showers more likely as we head into the afternoon and the cloud will thicken as we head into the evening. that's an approaching cold front, bringing perhaps some heavier showers as we head through the first part of the night, clearing gradually through the early hours, and then by dawn revealing clear skies. so under those clear skies, temperatures a little fresher, 8 celsius the minimum temperature. now for tomorrow, a bright start with some sunshine, but then our next front moves further south. so any sunshine we get first thing will give way to a bit more cloud for the afternoon. still some sunny spells,

still the chance of some scattered showers tomorrow, but fewer perhaps than today. and temperatures getting up to 20 celsius. now, as we head further through the week, conditions stay rather unsettled, we will see some sunshine, showers at times, and temperatures staying in the low 20s. if you go to the bbc news website the most read story is not about ulez but about the india club restaurant and bar on the strand thatis restaurant and bar on the strand that is set to close in a few weeks after 70 years. take a look. i am backin after 70 years. take a look. i am back in half an hour. good morning welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines. thousands of passengers remain delayed or stranded after a fault with the uk's air traffic control system — with a warning that things will get worse before they get better.

i'm now on a train journey to belgium and then to luxembourg and then to france and then to calais and then a ferry and then dover and then london and then bed and a cup of tea. here— bed and a cup of tea. at here bed and a cup of tea. at liverpool airport, lots of flights here at liverpool airport, lots of flights running on time but at other airports, _ flights running on time but at other airports, still delays and a long queue — airports, still delays and a long queue of— airports, still delays and a long queue of people having to re—book tickets _ london becomes the world's largest pollution charging area, as the expanded ultra low emission zone comes into force overnight. a place at uni, but no place to live. a warning that a shortage of student housing in some cities is going to get worse. in sport — on the money in new york. britain's lily miyazaki doubles her earnings for the season with a first ever win at a grand slam in the us open first round. good morning, today and tomorrow will be days of bright spells and

showers, some of which will be thundery and some will see rain on thursday. i will tell you where later in the programme. it's tuesday the 29th of august. holidaymakers are facing days of travel disruption after a technical fault hit the uk's air traffic control system over the bank holiday. the problem has now been fixed, but tens of thousands of passengers are still stranded. airlines are urging people to check their flights before going to the airport. jon donnison reports. it was a nightmare bank holiday for air travellers with hundreds of flights cancelled and many more delayed. and it's not over yet. we were looking at alternative flights. there was nothing available from ba before thursday. and as we're scrolling through comparison sites, flights were disappearing. we've now arranged three trains and a bus via brussels and the chunnel to arrive back in the uk at 10am on wednesday morning.

well, we should be in london right now, but, as it stands, we're still in valencia for the foreseeable future until they tell us otherwise. we have no information from easyjet and we're just waiting on that information. they're among tens of thousands of british passengers who find themselves stranded overseas and either scrambling to rebook flights or find alternative routes home. it's been a really fun day. the original plan was to fly from dusseldorf to london heathrow. obviously, flights all cancelled everywhere. i am now on a trainjourney to belgium and then to luxembourg and then to france and then to calais and then a ferry and then dover and then london and then bed and a cup of tea. and there are warnings the disruption could last for days. many planes and their crews are now not where they should be. at one of the busiest times of the year, getting them back in place will take time. airports are advising passengers not to set off unless they've

confirmed their flights are still operating. and an investigation into what went wrong with the country's air traffic control system has now been launched. our absolute priority is safety. i would like to apologise for the impact on the travelling public and to tell you that our teams will continue to work to get you on your way as soon as we can. but travel experts say airlines are unlikely to offer compensation to passengers because they can argue the disruption was out of their control — although they should pay for expenses like extra hotel costs. our reporter phil mccann is inside liverpooljohn lennon airport. how long is the disruption expected to last and what's the advice for passengers?

the advice from just about every airport is check before you travel which is what they are saying here in liverpool, manchester and london airports. the problem was fixed within a few hours but they say it could take days for everything to be in the right place because you have planes in the wrong place, passengers in the wrong place and pilots in the wrong place. behind me, this is the departure hall at liverpool airport. that queue behind me is not for the check—in desk but the booking desk. that is people whose flights have been cancelled, significantly delayed, who decided they need to rebook. normally the queues go in the other direction. i chatted to people and they are resigned to the fact that they will have to find alternative arrangements this morning. the airlines, british airways talking about significant and unavoidable

the scheme to improve air quality — but critics say the benefits don't outweigh the financial impact. transport correspondent katy austin has the latest. these were some of the first vehicles to enter the expanded ultra low emission zone. a charge of £12.50 now applies to drive older, more polluting vehicles in any london borough. yesterday, where i'm stood would have beenjust on the boundary of ulez. today, it's not, it covers a much wider area. the mayor of london, sadiq khan, and clean air campaigners have insisted it is a necessary step to help cut air pollution and improve public health. but the expansion has faced criticism, including for the financial impact on people in businesses. enfield in north london is in the same for the first time. we have had to change both our cars. but if it's going to help

the environment, then i think that's a good thing. we've still got the old model of car, so it's not ulez—compliant, but it's going to be 12.50 every day. but i'm going to have to make either a lot of changes and start walking. i mean, i take my son to school, i go to visit my elderly mum. it doesn't sound a lot i but it is when you have to pay that every day. my grandson's school, my family, they all live over this area. - destinations including heathrow airport and wembley stadium are now within ulez. this car dealer, a 20—minute drive outside the m25, has noticed a trend. we have seen a large number of customers currently driving noncompliant vehicles feeling it a necessity, because we are very close because we are very close to the expansion zone here. but compliant vehicles are standing strong in terms of price and, actually, the availability of compliant vehicles becoming less and less as well. londoners can apply for up to £2,000 to scrap a noncompliant car. some councils that border london are refusing to put up signs warning drivers

they are approaching the zone. i'm not going to condone it by putting the mayor's signs, his ulez signs, on hertfordshire land, or cameras. i'm not going to do that. i think clean air is a human right, not a privilege. the london mayor has continued to say widening the charging zone was a difficult decision, but the right one. a growing number of clean air zones have sprung up around the country. how best to improve air quality without hitting people too hard in the wallet has become a hot political topic. after months of debate, the big ulez expansion has now arrived. katy austin, bbc news. we will speak to the mayor of london and to the transport secretary in the next half hour. the family of a couple who died after getting stuck in their car in deep floodwater in liverpool have said they are devastated and heartbroken. elaine and philip marco were due to celebrate their 54th wedding anniversary next week.

merseyside police are investigating the incident. the inquest into the death of ten—year—old sara sharif will open today. sara was found dead at her home in woking earlier this month, sparking a murder inquiry. police want to speak to sara's father — urfan sharif — and his partner and brother, who it's believed flew to pakistan the day before she was discovered. the government is expected to announce plans to change water pollution rules to allow more houses to be built. our political correspondent jonathan blake has been looking into this. what is the government planning to do? the rules have been in place since 2017 when the uk was part of the eu and so—called nutrient neutrality rules are there to ensure new housing developments do not contribute greater levels of

pollution to nearby waterways whether through sewage from new homes or run—off from the construction sites. environmental groups argue they stop pollution levels in rivers and waterways getting to dangerous levels and harming wildlife. but housing developers have long argued they are too strict and in fact stop large numbers of developments and badly needed new homes, they argue, in some areas getting built. the government will relax the rules. instead of being mandatory they will become advisory and optional and it is one way the government is trying to build more homes in parts of england where the rules apply and reach the target of 300,000 new homes per year. it is trying to find new ways of doing that given the housing shortage in many areas. environmental groups and opposition parties criticise it, saying it will

mean more pollution. the government says it is putting in place measures to offset any adverse impact. donald trump has been told he will face trial in march next year on federal charges of attempting to cheat the 2020 presidential election. mr trump's lawyers tried to delay the case until 2026, but the judge said he was not entitled to unlimited time to prepare. hundreds of passengers will leave a p&o cruise ship early, after it collided with another boat during a storm off the spanish island of mallorca yesterday, damaging a lifeboat. p&o said a total of 321 passengers would be flying back to their starting point. nhs england has announced there will be a significant increase in the number of blood pressure checks carried out in the community. the health service plans to extend tests in pharmacies, and also offer them in places such as barbers shops and mosques. it's hoped the scheme

will help to reduce deaths from heart attacks and strokes. we can find out what the weather has in store. the sunflowers are clinging around, what about the sunshine? some of us will see sunshine. cloud in lincolnshire. thanks to ian's for sending this picture earlier. if you have an allergy to pollen, levels are high. it is not a particularly cold start. these are the temperatures. we are talking pollen for england mostly being high, and we are talking wheat today. we have a weather front moving southwards and another across scotland producing rain. that will move south. showers ahead of it and in

northern ireland and england. then we head into the front sinking south across england and wales introducing cloud and at times, showers. through the day this will rejuvenate and bring heavier rain to wales, south west, midlands, home counties and east anglia. the weather front in scotland will move south. between the two, bright and sunny spells and feeling pleasant in the sunshine with a light wind. as we head through the evening and overnight, the front sink southwards and clear. the second one move south, taking showers to northern england, north wales and northern ireland. more showers across the north of scotland. in between, clearskies, and a cooler night. tomorrow we start with showers in the north but we see a lot of dry weather as high—pressure bills. the shower is becoming more prolific through the

afternoon. temperatures tomorrow getting up to high of 20. next month, thousands of students across the uk will be heading to university and, for many, one of the biggest priorities is having somewhere suitable to live. a housing charity is warning that accommodation shortages in some cities are bad, and are only going to get worse as our education editor branwen jeffreys has been finding out. manchester, one of the biggest university cities, attracting students from home and abroad, creating huge demand for housing. they really haven't given us any information about it. so i've been following one new student heading to uni. her mum graine has been trying to help aisling. over the summer, manchester uni's housing site has been down. how much does it mean to you to have the kind of accommodation you want to start university? i mean, that's going

to be like my home base. it's obviously really important. and i know there are often like facebook groups for, you know, the accommodation. so it'd be nice to have a bit of time to talk to people i'm going to be living with. aisling is worried because last year there weren't enough rooms. in several cities, including manchester, some first—years had to commute. the university of manchester said its accommodation site was back up after a cyberattack and it's making every effort to help first—years find somewhere. in those cities where you've got a serious problem, the idea that all students are going to live next to the university in a reasonable rent is a thing of the past. unipol keeps a record of the rooms built and planned. the numbers are falling. things are not going to get any better in the areas of shortage. it's slightly worse than it looks, as well. to all intents and purposes, supply

is grinding quietly to a halt. most new purpose—built student accommodation is privately built. in 2020, around 29,000 new bed spaces were created, but that number has been falling each year since. by 2024, it will be 10,000, says unipol. after that, building costs mean it could reach a standstill, even though student numbers are rising. student housing is part of a wider rental market. in manchester, fallowfield has always been a big student area. many students still choose to rent in streets like this, partly to keep their accommodation affordable — really important when the cost of living is biting into the value of their loans. but it's hard because competition for houses is so stiff. elliot is about to go into his final year at uni. his biggest worry is getting and affording a room. his parents can't help much — he's from a low—income family and the maximum loan he gets isn't

keeping up with prices. i've had panic attacks walking around the shop before, seeing how much food's going up and up and up. and the knowledge that if i didn't have to spend all of this money on just having a roof over my head. you know, it's about two thirds of my student loan go straight to rent. i don't see a penny of it. if i didn't have to spend that much, then, actually, i wouldn't be worrying about using a food bank. the national union of students told us many other students are struggling as rents are rising faster than loans. ok, so quick update. i got assigned my accommodation. it's in a place i'm really happy with. i've done my deposit. now all i can focus on is just packing for university. while aisling is sorted, some other students are still going through clearing. some universities, but not all, say

they can guarantee accommodation. branwenjefferies, bbc news, manchester. it isa it is a situation that will chime with lots of students. we'rejoined by chloe field, the vice—president for higher education at the national union of students. in students. previous academic years we have talked in previous academic years we have talked about a problem. how much worse is it this year? i talked about a problem. how much worse is it this year?— worse is it this year? i think it is a lot worse _ worse is it this year? i think it is a lot worse with _ worse is it this year? i think it is a lot worse with different - worse is it this year? i think it is | a lot worse with different factors due to the cost of living but also universities are increasing student intake by multiple folds and they do not have the capacity. they invite the students, to cell than the dream of going to university but they are not getting allocated accommodation. i guess a lot of students will spend a lot of time working out which couege a lot of time working out which college or university they want to

go to, what they might study, work hard for a—levels and accommodation is not at the top of their mind. they imagine that will be sorted but it is not the case.— it is not the case. there is definitely _ it is not the case. there is definitely a _ it is not the case. there is definitely a panic. - it is not the case. there is definitely a panic. it - it is not the case. there is definitely a panic. it is - it is not the case. there is definitely a panic. it is ok| it is not the case. there is i definitely a panic. it is ok if it is not the case. there is - definitely a panic. it is ok if you get yourfirst choice definitely a panic. it is ok if you get your first choice but if you go through clearing, second choice, it is more precarious and there is a panic to pick up the first accommodation you see, which can be expensive and a lot of students cannot afford to do that. is expensive and a lot of students cannot afford to do that.- cannot afford to do that. is the national you — cannot afford to do that. is the national you of _ cannot afford to do that. is the national you of student - cannot afford to do that. is the national you of student saying | cannot afford to do that. is the - national you of student saying there should not be as many students? we are not should not be as many students? - are not saying that, we want as many to come to university but universities have a duty to think about the numbers they are bringing in compare to capacity. it is ok bringing in students but they will have an awful time while they are at university. brute have an awful time while they are at universi . ~ , . ., ., university. we saw the effect on a student in the _ university. we saw the effect on a student in the report, _ university. we saw the effect on a student in the report, how- university. we saw the effect on a student in the report, how it - university. we saw the effect on a student in the report, how it will. student in the report, how it will cause panic attacks, imagining paying rent. cause panic attacks, imagining

the problem was fixed early yesterday afternoon. their priority yesterday afternoon. their priority yesterday was to ensure they could continue the air traffic system functioning safely, which meant they used back—up systems that had less capacity which is why flights were cancelled. i spoke to the head of the service yesterday to talk through the problem. what they had done to fix it. there will be an independent look at what happened by the civil aviation authority which will report back to me. film; will report back to me. any indication _ will report back to me. any indication about _ will report back to me. any indication about what - will report back to me. any indication about what might have caused the problem? speculation it might have been hacking. it caused the problem? speculation it might have been hacking.— might have been hacking. it was a technical issue _ might have been hacking. it was a technical issue with _ might have been hacking. it was a technical issue with the _ might have been hacking. it was a technical issue with the flight - technical issue with the flight planning system. the experts have told me it was not a cyber security incident. we will look at it in detail to see what happened, what we can do to reduce the chance of it happening again and whether there are further things that can be put

in place to reduce this issue. there has not been an issue on this scale in almost a decade. most of the time, the system works very well. the priority yesterday was to ensure people could continue to fly in and out of the united kingdom safely which is rightly the priority of the service. �* , which is rightly the priority of the service. �*, ., ., ~' which is rightly the priority of the service. �*, ., , ., service. let's look at things on the round. service. let's look at things on the ground. millions _ service. let's look at things on the ground. millions waking _ service. let's look at things on the ground. millions waking up - service. let's look at things on the ground. millions waking up this i ground. millions waking up this morning inside the ulez pollution charging zone in london. i want to read a quote from the mayor of london, the world's first ulez is an essential measure to improve air quality in the city and protect the health of londoners. that was the former mayor of london, the conservative borisjohnson. this was a conservative policy originally, however critical you are of it now. the expansion to cover the whole of greater london is a decision by the labour mayor of london supported by

the labour leader. if you look at the labour leader. if you look at the mayor of london's impact assessment, it will have a minor to negligible effect on air quality. it is very clear, despite what the mayor of london says, it is not about improving air quality in greater london, it is about raising money from londoners for him. and this is something, given the challenge of the cost of living, thatis challenge of the cost of living, that is not right to do. it challenge of the cost of living, that is not right to do.- challenge of the cost of living, that is not right to do. it was not 'ust boris that is not right to do. it was not just boris johnson. _ that is not right to do. it was not just boris johnson. the - that is not right to do. it was not just boris johnson. the former . just borisjohnson. the former conservative transport secretary grant shapps, he wanted the congestion charge expanded three years ago, expanded. he congestion charge expanded three years ago, expanded.— years ago, expanded. he did not. this has been _ years ago, expanded. he did not. this has been put _ years ago, expanded. he did not. this has been put around - years ago, expanded. he did not. this has been put around by - years ago, expanded. he did not. this has been put around by the l this has been put around by the labour party. this was about the post—pandemic situation and about the expansion of the ulez to the north and south london circular area which was a commitment by the mayor. the government does not support the

roll—out to the whole of greater london. we have been clear about that. in the latest letter from the department for transport we made it clear no central government money could be used to roll it out and it had to be funded by the mayor. it is his decision. i do not have the ability to block it. the labour leader could block it by taking steps against the labour mayor. he does not want to do that. it is a labour decision and voters in london will have their view when the mayoral election takes place next year. the conservative candidate made it clear she would abolish the roll—out to greater london and i think that is the right decision. in the meantime, it is here. we understand you are planning to rewrite the law to make it harder for london's mayor in the future to impose clean—air schemes. if this

improves pollution and health in london, you risk being on the wrong side of history. we london, you risk being on the wrong side of history-— side of history. we are backing a backbench _ side of history. we are backing a backbench amendment - side of history. we are backing a backbench amendment to - side of history. we are backing a| backbench amendment to change side of history. we are backing a - backbench amendment to change the law for the future to make sure councils would have to agree to any future scheme. that is the position outside london and we are putting it in place. councils would also, if it was genuinely about air pollution, a plan to deal with it. the mayor's impact assessment said the roll—out will have a minor to negligible effect on air quality in london. it is not about air quality, it is about raising money from hard—working and hard pressed londoners and it is not the right decision. we londoners and it is not the right decision. ~ ., ., i, decision. we will analyse the science in — decision. we will analyse the science in the _ decision. we will analyse the science in the months - decision. we will analyse the science in the months to - decision. we will analyse the i science in the months to come. decision. we will analyse the - science in the months to come. thank you. sadiq khan is coming up in a couple of minutes. time for the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london.

london's ultra low emission zone is 7.5 hours old. it came into force at midnight after months of fierce opposition. it applies to all noncompliant vehicles travelling through london boroughs, and the drivers have to pay £12.50 a day to use them, even for the shortest distances, or risk getting a £180 fine. it has been introduced to reduce pollution, and no grace period has been announced for drivers to get used to the new zone, which means drivers can expect fines from today if they do not pay. and drivers are being warned about so—called copycat websites when the go to pay ulez online, because illegal websites have been treated to look like the transport for london website. they will collect money from drivers but it will not actually pay the ulez. tfl says it is working with search engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled by copycat websites whatever it is,

whether it is dealing with tfl or your bank. you have to double check, it is an unfortunate symptom of modern life, and as i say, as a public institution, we do everything we can to work with the internet companies to remove them when we identify them. a large clear—up has already started after the notting hill carnival. around 2 million people were on the streets in vibrant costumes and to hear sounds and taste flavours of the caribbean. it was overwhelmingly peaceful over the three days, but as carnival closed, two men were taken to hospital with stab wounds. because of problems with air traffic control yesterday, disruption likely to continue for some days yet, so if you're flying, do check the status of your flight before you leave home. now a look at the tube board, and a good service on all lines. time now for a look at the weather with kate kinsella. good morning.

it is a largely cloudy start this morning. we will, however, see it break to give some sunny spells, but also some well scattered showers. now, the cloud this morning, you see, is fairly thick. but like i said, it will break up. temperatures getting up to around 21 celsius, showers more likely as we head into the afternoon, and the cloud will thicken as we head into the evening. that's an approaching cold front, bringing perhaps some heavier showers as we head through the first part of the night, clearing gradually through the early hours, and then by dawn revealing clear skies. so under those clear skies, temperatures a little fresher, 8 celsius the minimum temperature. now for tomorrow, a bright start with some sunshine, but then our next front moves further south. so any sunshine we get first thing will give way to a bit more cloud for the afternoon. still some sunny spells, still the chance of some scattered showers tomorrow, but fewer perhaps than today. and temperatures getting up to 20 celsius. now, as we head further through the week, conditions do stay rather unsettled, we will see some sunshine, showers at times, and temperatures staying in the low 20s.

more on today's ulez expansion on your bbc local radio station this morning. that's all for now. i'll be back in half an hour. bye— bye. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. from today, it will cost motorists with older vehicles more to drive anywhere in london, as the whole city becomes the world's largest ultra low emission zone. the original ulez area, marked here in green, only applied to the very centre of london when it came into force three years ago. then in 2021, it expanded to "inner london", which is the area

inside the north and south circular ring roads. and today, it has increased once more, to cover "outer london," meaning all 32 london boroughs will now be inside the zone. so why is the ulez being expanded? well, the mayor of london says in all london boroughs, air pollution far exceeds limits recommended by the world health organization, which can severely affect people with asthma and heart conditions. most scientific studies show that clean—air zones reduce air pollution. three years after london's first zone was introduced, pollutant levels next to the roadside reduced by an estimated 46%. so what does all this mean? well, generally, to be compliant a petrol vehicle needs be registered after 2005, orfor a diesel vehicle, it's after september 2015.

if your vehicle is registered before these dates, you'll be charged £12.50 to enter the zone for most vehicles. we'rejoined now by the london mayor, sadiq khan. good morning. i have previously heard you say that this expansion was a very difficult decision to take. tell me why you struggled with it. , ., ., take. tell me why you struggled with it. ,., ., ., , ., it. good morning. it is worth explaining — it. good morning. it is worth explaining the _ it. good morning. it is worth explaining the reason - it. good morning. it is worth explaining the reason why i l it. good morning. it is worth - explaining the reason why i took this difficult but vital decision, the right one, to expand the ulez. so from today, 5 million more londoners will be breathing clean air. and that is because of the evidence, the evidence in relation to the consequences of air pollution. as you have said earlier today, around 4000 premature deaths a year in our city. but also children with stunted lungs for ever, caused by air pollution, a

whole host of health issues for adults from asthma to cancer, dementia to heart disease. but the evidence also shows that the ulez works in central london, a big reduction in pollutants, but also we saw a third fewer children being admitted to hospital with air pollution —related illnesses when we expanded it to inner london, 21% reduction in pollutants, such children going to 1400 schools now breathing clean air. but we have seenin breathing clean air. but we have seen in outer london no improvements of the levels we have seen in central and inner london, but also the ten boroughs with the largest number of premature deaths are in outer london, 24 out of 30 of the gp practices with the largest number of patients with respiratory issues in outer london, but it was difficult because i recognise we are going through a cost of living crisis, there been listening, that is why i

have announced of the last 18 months of the biggest scrappage scheme our country has seen, to support low income families, to support those who are disabled, to support those micro businesses employing less than ten people, to support charities, but over the course of the last year, expanded that scheme so every child in london who is on benefit, theirfamilies receive child in london who is on benefit, their families receive support command earlier on this month, i announced every person in london with a noncompliant vehicle, noncompliant car, business, event, a charity with a minibus, receives support. i charity with a minibus, receives su ort. ., �* ~' charity with a minibus, receives su--ort. ., �* ~' . , charity with a minibus, receives su--ort. ~ ., , , support. i don't think many people watchin: support. i don't think many people watching this _ support. i don't think many people watching this would _ support. i don't think many people watching this would think- support. i don't think many people watching this would think that - support. i don't think many people watching this would think that we | support. i don't think many people i watching this would think that we do not need clean air, everybody wants cleaner air, not need clean air, everybody wants cleanerair, don't not need clean air, everybody wants cleaner air, don't they? not need clean air, everybody wants cleanerair, don't they? but not need clean air, everybody wants cleaner air, don't they? but we just had mark—up on the programme a few minutes ago, he said this is quite simply about making more money. let me deal with that. ijust bumped into my paparazzi was leaving the studio, and he made a couple of factual errors, probably worth me

clarifying. if this was about making money, i would clarifying. if this was about making money, iwould have clarifying. if this was about making money, i would have ceded to the demand from the government to expand the congestion charge much wider thanit the congestion charge much wider than it currently is, that would have been a cash grab, but i said no. if it was a cash grab, is the government is saying, just to raise money, i would government is saying, just to raise money, iwould have government is saying, just to raise money, i would have ceased their demand to expand the ulez without proper consultation and improper scrappage scheme. this is about helping ourairto be scrappage scheme. this is about helping our air to be clean, and in a couple of years' time, tfl have predicted there will be no additional money made because of the number of noncompliant vehicles, but every penny made is used to reinvest in public transport, including buses in public transport, including buses in outer london, improving public transport in our city, and here's the irony of ironies, it was this government that published air—quality directives. the right thing to do requiring cities to there. it was this government that supported clean air zones around the country, the right thing to do in

public health crisis. we now have a very effective policy to reduce air pollution, shown to be effective in central london and inner london, but i think clean air is a right, not a privilege. what about outer london? why shouldn't they breathe clean air? why should they carry on dying prematurely in numbers that could be reversed? and the key thing is this, we need to make sure that we do other things as well, so that is why in london we have more electric buses than any city in western europe, we have more rapid charging points than any city in western europe, more than a third of the country's charging points are in our greater city. we have planted almost 500,000 trees in london. so the expansion of ulez as part of our plans to address the climate emergency but also to address the issue of social injustice. there is always likely to suffer a cart suffer the worst consequences. moving on for a moment, you might

have seen we had a couple of people in the programme talk about the situation with their cars. as far as you are where, how many cars, what percentage of cars are noncompliant at the moment? in percentage of cars are noncompliant at the moment?— percentage of cars are noncompliant at the moment? in an london, where the ulez currently _ at the moment? in an london, where the ulez currently exists, _ at the moment? in an london, where the ulez currently exists, and - the ulez currently exists, and 97% of vehicles seen driving an average day are compliant.— of vehicles seen driving an average day are compliant. gifts}? in of vehicles seen driving an average day are compliant. 9?"s;? in london on day are compliant. 97%? in london on an averaue day are compliant. 97%? in london on an average day- _ day are compliant. 97%? in london on an average day. in _ day are compliant. 97%? in london on an average day. in outer london, where the ulez is expanded to, on an average day, 90% of cars seen driving are compliant. what i have done is notwithstanding that announcement, an additional 15 million cars towards the scrappage scheme, so every single person in london who may have a noncompliant vehicle, and i would encourage your viewers to check on the tfl transport for london website for their vehicle is compliant, every person in london who may have a noncompliant car, a motorbike, a small business with a van, charity, check whether your vehicle is

compliant. you can receive financial support from tfl to make that transition. support from tfl to make that transition-— support from tfl to make that transition. ~ ~ ., , ., transition. when the rac obtain fi . ures transition. when the rac obtain figures from _ transition. when the rac obtain figures from the _ transition. when the rac obtain figures from the dvla - transition. when the rac obtain figures from the dvla earlier i transition. when the rac obtain i figures from the dvla earlier this year, they said 700,000 cars in greater london are noncompliant, 25%, so this will be a significant problem for more people than you are suggesting. the problem for more people than you are su: arestin. �* , problem for more people than you are su~aestina. �* , ., suggesting. the rac figures are based on cars — suggesting. the rac figures are based on cars and _ suggesting. the rac figures are based on cars and other - suggesting. the rac figures are | based on cars and other vehicles registered in london. many businesses with headquarters in london registered vehicles in london but drive them around the country, so the figures from the cameras and to listen to the number of cars seen driving in outer london are more accurate and more up—to—date. so the first thing is please check whether your vehicle is compliant. as i said, more than likely your vehicle is compliant. if not, there is financial support available from city hall and tfl. and again, i am imploring the government, rather than playing political knock—about,

to work with us, so more businesses and chalices in london can receive that financial support. we and chalices in london can receive that financial support.— and chalices in london can receive that financial support. we know most eo - le in that financial support. we know most people in london. — that financial support. we know most people in london, you're _ that financial support. we know most people in london, you're talking - people in london, you're talking about the support, they can actually only apply for that grant from around eight days ago, is that really long enough for people to get organised? the really long enough for people to get orranised? , . , really long enough for people to get orranised? ,. , .,, organised? the scheme first opened in janua , organised? the scheme first opened in january. and _ organised? the scheme first opened in january, and the _ organised? the scheme first opened in january, and the focus _ organised? the scheme first opened in january, and the focus in - organised? the scheme first opened in january, and the focus in january i in january, and the focus in january was to support low income injanuary, and the focus injanuary was to support low income families, disabled londoners, micro businesses who employ fewer than ten people, and charities. we need to make sure that those people can receive support first, and we have finite resources paid for by city hall without government support. injuly, we want to expand that, once we knew those who receive support, so every family in london to receive child benefit, more than 800,000 families in outer london, almost 600,000 families could receive the support. once we were confident they would receive the support and halfway through the first year put in more money to the scheme, i was able to announce a policy where every single

londoner who is now eligible to apply. i spoke to tfl this morning, they turn around these things within a matter of days. in the last week, there have been, as we predicted, more than 15,000 applications, i think 14,000 cars have already been scrapped, vehicles, so i would encourage viewers to check whether your vehicle is compliant, it probably is. if not, apply for support. probably is. if not, apply for su ort. ., ., probably is. if not, apply for support-— probably is. if not, apply for su ort. ., ., ., ., ., support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank ou. support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank you- the — support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank you. the time _ support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank you. the time is _ support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank you. the time is just _ support. mayor of london sadiq khan, thank you. the time isjust coming - thank you. the time is just coming up thank you. the time is just coming up to 7.45. another big transport story this morning as well. thousands of passengers have been caught up in the disruption to and from uk airports. among them is richard ockenden and his family, who were due to fly home to manchester from lisbon last night. when their flight was cancelled, they decided to drive nearly 200 miles to porto, where they hope to catch a flight home later. richard joins us now.

we also have sharon, who was hoping to get to bilbao to see her son, but she is stockier instead. richard, what is your situation? we she is stockier instead. richard, what is your situation?— she is stockier instead. richard, what is your situation? we were due to fl to what is your situation? we were due to fly to manchester _ what is your situation? we were due to fly to manchester from _ what is your situation? we were due to fly to manchester from lisbon - to fly to manchester from lisbon yesterday evening. == to fly to manchester from lisbon yesterday evening.— to fly to manchester from lisbon yesterday evening. -- she is stuck here instead. _ yesterday evening. -- she is stuck here instead. the _ yesterday evening. -- she is stuck here instead. the flight _ yesterday evening. -- she is stuck here instead. the flight was - yesterday evening. -- she is stuck. here instead. the flight was delayed b 12 here instead. the flight was delayed by 12 hours. — here instead. the flight was delayed by 12 hours, would _ here instead. the flight was delayed by 12 hours, would be _ here instead. the flight was delayed by 12 hours, would be accepted, - here instead. the flight was delayed by 12 hours, would be accepted, it i by 12 hours, would be accepted, it happens, then a few hours later, it was cancelled outright. we have no e—mails, no texts from easyjet or anything like that, just notifications from an app. so the 3pp notifications from an app. so the app give us options to a new flight, the only option was to go from porto today at 9.00, so last night we booked that flight and drove to porto, booked a hotel on the way, so now we are in porto and we are quite lucky we got a hotel rather than relying on a floor in an airport last night. we have been quite

through the afternoon, across the south—west, wales and midlands, also the home counties eventually come and into east anglia. in between, though, you can see a few brighter breaks with highs up to 21 in london. on the other side of this, for northern england, we are looking at and brightening up with some sunshine, just a few showers, northern ireland sunny spells and some showers for youth, 16 celsius in glasgow, and this weather front also sitting south, taking showers with it, but some others could be heavy and you might even hear the odd rumble of thunder. as we move from tuesday into wednesday, the front sinks southwards and clears, the second one pushes towards the north sea, and in between some clear skies, so it will be a cooler night than we had last night, these are overnight lows, especially so in rural areas because these temperatures represent towns and cities. then as we head through wednesday, we have already said goodbye to that weather front, a lot of dry weather some showers are

still coming out of the cloud, bubbling up as we go through the course of the afternoon. temperatures 14 to 22 celsius north to south wednesday night into thursday, low pressure starts to come back in with its front from the atlantic, and it will introduce some rain, steadily pushing northwards and eastwards, some of that on the south coast could be notjust heavy but also thunder, and eventually expected to get into northern ireland, north—west england in south—west scotland, but pushing further east, drierand south—west scotland, but pushing further east, drier and brighter conditions, again with areas of cloud at times, temperatures 14 to 19 celsius. slipping that little bit. for friday, looking at low cloud, mist and fog, and the rain continuing to push away from the far south, we also have low cloud mist and fog across the far north of scotland, but in between a mixture

of bright spells and sunshine, a bit more sunshine, and these are the temperatures on friday, 14 to about 22 celsius, so just climbing temperatures on friday, 14 to about 22 celsius, sojust climbing up by a degree or so. sally and jon. thank you very much, carol. time now for the sport news withjohn. good morning. lily miyazaki, just inside the world's top 200, the stand—out story on the opening day of the us open. a name perhaps unfamiliar to many, she came through three rounds of qualifying to win her first ever match at a grand slam, at the age of 27, beating margarita betova in straight sets. she collects a pay cheque of £98,000 for that win, which means her coach, who she shares with fellow gb player jodie burrage, could now travel to tournaments with her. there are six british players in action today.

alongside the likes of katie boulter, cam norrie, jack draper, dan evans, jodie burage is andy murray, back in grand slam action after that second—round defeat at wimbledon. and novak djokovic, back at the us open for the first time since covid restrictions were implented, dropped just five games in his first—round win against frenchman alexandre muller. that victory means he'll take back the world number one ranking from carlos alcaraz. geraint thomas' hopes in the vuelta a espana are disappearing. he finished well behind the stage 3 winner and now trails by a minute and 11 seconds. belgium's remco evenepoel was first over the line, pullling clear of the tour de france winner jonas vingegaard. that gave him the leader's red jersey, but he didn't slow down quickly enough, crashing through a group of spectators and photographers, suffering a cut to his face.

uncomfortable as it was for aldershot and their fans this weekend, it's not often we bring you action from the national league, but it was so full of drama. firstly their keeper gets sent off. they don't have a substitute, so on goes their striker to take the gloves. his first act was to pick the ball out of the net as eastleigh curled in the free kick. they won 3—0. what do they say? it doesnt rain, it pours. it's a sadly familiar sight after a bank holiday weekend — beaches, parks and other beauty spots strewn with rubbish left

by visitors. litter—pickers will be out in force at many popular sites today, to clean up the mess, and fi lamdin's with a group of volunteers in wiltshire. fi, are they busy this morning? good morning. let me first show you this beautiful site. we have the river, the steeple in the background, and this is the river avon. if i turn the camera around, you can see we have somewhat down on this beautiful footpath, you can see we have somewhat down on this beautifulfootpath, and the team are already out, they are on it. good morning, ben, what time did you get here this morning? bbout you get here this morning? about 7.00? it you get here this morning? about 7-00? it is _ you get here this morning? about 7.00? it is really _ you get here this morning? about 7.00? it is really bad, _ you get here this morning? about 7.00? it is really bad, after - you get here this morning? about 7.00? it is really bad, after bank| 7.00? it is really bad, after bank holidays — 7.00? it is really bad, after bank holidays and sunny weather, it gets worse _ holidays and sunny weather, it gets worse. we — holidays and sunny weather, it gets worse. ~ ., , ., holidays and sunny weather, it gets worse. ~ ., y., ., holidays and sunny weather, it gets worse. ~ ., ., worse. we have you and your next-door — worse. we have you and your next-door neighbour, - worse. we have you and your next-door neighbour, julie. i worse. we have you and your - next-door neighbour, julie. nearly next—door neighbour, julie. nearly 50 years between you two, you struck up

it applies to all noncompliant vehicles travelling through london boroughs, and drivers have to pay £12.50 a day to use them, even for the shortest distances, or risk getting a £180 fine. it has been introduced to reduce pollution — no grace period has been announced for drivers to get used to the new zone, which means drivers can expect fines from today if they do not pgy- drivers are being warned about so—called copycat websites when they go to pay ulez online, because illegal websites have been created to look like the transport for london website. they will collect money from drivers but it will not pay the ulez. tfl says it is working with search engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled by copycat websites whatever it is, whether it is doing with tfl or your bank. you have to double—check.

it is an unfortunate symptom of modern life, and as i say, as a public institution, we do everything we can to work with the internet companies to remove them when we identify them. travel has been good all morning and -lad travel has been good all morning and glad to— travel has been good all morning and glad to say— travel has been good all morning and glad to say it — travel has been good all morning and glad to say it is — travel has been good all morning and glad to say it is looking _ travel has been good all morning and glad to say it is looking the _ travel has been good all morning and glad to say it is looking the same - glad to say it is looking the same way _ the weather, and today should be mainly dry but there is the chance of a shower. feeling warm with a top temperature of 21 celsius. good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines. thousands of passengers remain delayed or stranded after a fault with the uk's air traffic control system — with a warning that things will get worse before they get better. i'm now on a train journey to belgium and then to luxembourg and then to france and then to calais and then a ferry and then dover and then london and then bed and a cup of tea. london becomes the world's

largest pollution charging area, as the expanded ultra low emission zone comes into force overnight. the signs are up in sutton. one of the outer london borough is now covered by the ulez but there is strong opposition. i will speak to those who oppose the extension. fresh from setting records for england at the women's world cup, we'll be joined on the sofa by ella toone. today and tomorrow will be days of bright spells and showers. some showers fund arena. some will see rain on thursday. i will tell you where later in the programme. it's tuesday the 29th of august. holidaymakers are facing days of travel disruption after a technical fault hit the uk's air traffic control system over the bank holiday. the problem has now been fixed,

but thousands of passengers are still stranded. airlines have apologised and are urging people to check their flights before going to the airport. jon donnison reports. it was a nightmare bank holiday for air travellers with hundreds of flights cancelled and many more delayed. and it's not over yet. we were looking at alternative flights. there was nothing available from ba before thursday. and as we're scrolling through comparison sites, flights were disappearing. we've now arranged three trains and a bus via brussels and the channel to arrive back in the uk at 10am on wednesday morning. well, we should be in london right now, but, as it stands, we're still in valencia for the foreseeable future until they tell us otherwise. we have no information from easyjet and we're just waiting on that information.

they're among tens of thousands of british passengers who find themselves stranded overseas and either scrambling to rebook flights or find alternative routes home. it's been a really fun day. the original plan was to fly from dusseldorf to london heathrow. obviously, flights all cancelled everywhere. i am now on a trainjourney to belgium and then to luxembourg and then to france and then to calais and then a ferry and then dover and then london and then bed and a cup of tea. and there are warnings the disruption could last for days. many planes and their crews are now not where they should be. at one of the busiest times of the year, getting them back in place will take time. airports are advising passengers not to set off unless they've confirmed their flights are still operating. and an investigation into what went wrong with the country's air traffic control system has now been launched. our absolute priority is safety. i would like to apologise

for the impact on the travelling public and to tell you that our teams will continue to work to get you on your way as soon as we can. but travel experts say airlines are unlikely to offer compensation to passengers because they can argue the disruption was out of their control — although they should pay for expenses like extra hotel costs. jon donnison is at heathrow. we hear things might get worse before they get better. how long will the disruption be expected to last? it will the disruption be expected to last? . , will the disruption be expected to last? ., ' will the disruption be expected to last? .,,.,' i, ., last? it was awful yesterday and i think it will _ last? it was awful yesterday and i think it will be — last? it was awful yesterday and i think it will be pretty _ last? it was awful yesterday and i think it will be pretty bad - last? it was awful yesterday and i think it will be pretty bad today. i think it will be pretty bad today. there have been flights taking off from heathrow but i have just looked at the departures board online and i would say about a quarter of flights from heathrow in the first few hours this morning are subject to either cancellation or delay. i looked at

gatwick and it is a similar picture. there are two problems. one is that planes and the crew are not in places they need to be after the three hour outage yesterday and it will take time to get people back in place. also, people scrambling to reschedule flights are trying to do so at one of the busiest times of the year when flights are already booked up. some airlines are saying, british airways, if you fly today, you can rebook free of charge if you can find a seat. the airports are saying do not come to the airport until you have checked with the airline that your flight is going to take off. you can get full details of all travel advice issued on the bbc website. we have simon calder on the programme in about 15 minutes to answer your questions. now more of

the news. overnight, london has become the world's largest pollution charging area, after the ultra—low emission zone — known as ulez — was expanded across the entire capital. the mayor of london has introduced the scheme to improve air quality — but critics say the benefits don't outweigh the financial impact. our transport correspondent, katy austin, has the latest. these were some of the first vehicles to enter the expanded ultra low emission zone. a charge of £12.50 now applies to drive older, more polluting vehicles in any london borough. yesterday, where i'm stood would have beenjust on the boundary of ulez. today, it's not, it covers a much wider area. the mayor of london, sadiq khan, and clean air campaigners have insisted it is a necessary step to help cut air pollution and improve public health. but the expansion has faced criticism, including for the financial impact

on people and businesses. enfield in north london is in the same for the first time. we have had to change both our cars. but if it's going to help the environment, then i think that's a good thing. we've still got the old model of car, so it's not ulez—compliant. that's going to be 12.50 every day. but i'm going to have to make either a lot of changes and start walking. i mean, i take my son to school, i go to visit my elderly mum. it doesn't sound a lot i but it is when you have to pay that every day. my grandson's school, my family, they all live over this area. - destinations including heathrow airport and wembley stadium are now within ulez. this car dealer, a 20—minute drive outside the m25, has noticed a trend. we have seen a large number of customers currently driving noncompliant vehicles feeling it a necessity, because we are very close to the expansion zone here. but compliant vehicles are standing strong in terms of price and, actually, the availability of compliant vehicles becoming less and less as well.

londoners can apply for up to £2,000 to scrap a noncompliant car. some councils that border london are refusing to put up signs warning drivers they are approaching the zone. i'm not going to condone it by putting the mayor's signs, his ulez signs, on hertfordshire land, or cameras. i'm not going to do that. the london mayor has continued to say widening the charging zone was a difficult decision, but the right one. this is about helping the airb cleaner and in this is about helping the airb cleanerand in a this is about helping the airb cleaner and in a couple of years, tfl have predicted there will be no additional money made because of the number of noncompliant vehicles, but every penny made is used to reinvest in public transport, improving buses in public transport, improving buses in outer london, improving public transport in our cities. a growing number of clean air zones have sprung up around the country. how best to improve air quality

without hitting people too hard in the wallet has become a hot political topic. after months of debate, the big ulez expansion has now arrived. katy austin, bbc news. the family of a couple who died after getting stuck in their car in deep floodwater in liverpool have said they are devastated and heartbroken. elaine and philip marco were due to celebrate their 54th wedding anniversary next week. merseyside police are investigating the incident. the inquest into the death of ten—year—old sara sharif will open today. sara was found dead at her home in woking earlier this month, sparking a murder inquiry. police want to speak to sara's father — urfan sharif — and his partner and brother, who it's believed flew to pakistan the day before she was discovered. regional leaders of the spanish football federation have asked its president, luis rubiales, to resign after he kissed playerjenni hermoso on the lips following the women's world cup final.

mr rubiales has faced widespread criticism over the incident, but has so far refused to step down. our spain correspondent guy hedgecoe joins us now. the pressure has been building for a week and he is still in hisjob. yes, it would appear that pressure is unbearable for him now. particularly since saturday, fifa, the world governing body, chose to suspend luis rubiales provisionally pending disciplinary proceedings but it seems to me the decision yesterday by his own federation, the regional leaders of his federation to turn against him and call on him to turn against him and call on him to resign, that would suggest he has simply run out of road. the question now is whether he goes quietly or whether he has to be pushed. the

government is taking action to try to force him out of office. in the meantime, the government and others are worried about the impact this may have on the bid spain has to host the 2013 men's world cup alongside portugal and morocco. the government says it wants to talk to fifa as soon as possible to convince it to the events of the past week, the crisis surrounding luis rubiales, does not represent spanish football fairly.— donald trump has been told he will face trial in march next year on federal charges of attempting to cheat the 2020 presidential election. mr trump's lawyers tried to delay the case until 2026, but the judge said he was not entitled to unlimited time to prepare. sir eltonjohn has spent a night in hospital after falling at his villa in the south of france.

a spokesperson for the singer says he's now back home and in good health. the 76—year—old has been spending the summer in france, after performing a headline set at glastonbury festival. nhs england has announced there will be a significant increase in the number of blood pressure checks carried out in the community. the health service plans to extend tests in pharmacies and also offer them in places such as barbers shops and mosques. it's hoped the scheme will help to reduce deaths from heart attacks and strokes. we will be asking joe wicks about that. he will be on the sofa shortly. a lot of health stories around this morning. the august bank holiday often conjures up images of village fetes, garden parties and family fun days — a bit of cricket.

but that's not quite what you get in the village of stacksteads in lancashire. for the past 15 years, it's been the venue for the world gravy wrestling championships. which is exactly what it sounds like. these aerial pictures. bbc radio lancashire presenter graham liver took part under the nickname penwortham porker — fighting the contestant elviz in a swimming pool full of gravy. graham was knocked out of the contest. more than 20 men and women took part in this year's competition, which is held annually to raise money for a local hospice. you basically fighting gravy. it is cheaper than a spray tan. more smelly. i don't know. here's carol.

do you fancy gravy wrestling? only if there was a huge yorkshire pudding to go with it. good morning. this morning, it is worth mentioning pollen levels are high across much of england. we are talking weeds. we have two fronts, this is producing rain moving south. this across the north of scotland is producing heavy rain and moving south. showers with sunshine, northern ireland and northern england. this will weaken and rejuvenate through the afternoon. the rain turns heavy across wales, south west, midlands, home counties and east anglia in the afternoon. behind it, and between the showers, there will be sunshine or bright spells. light winds,

temperatures 14—21 north to south. overnight, the front moves to the south—east and clears. the other front move south, bringing showers in northern england, north wales, northern ireland. then further showers across the north of scotland. in between under clear skies, a colder night. these temperatures indicate what you can expect in towns and cities but in rural areas, expect in towns and cities but in ruralareas, it expect in towns and cities but in rural areas, it will be cooler. tomorrow, high pressure builds. the weather will settle. some showers around. the odd rumble of thunder in east anglia. a lot will miss the showers. temperatures, 15 in the north, 20 in the south. and the first signs of what is coming on thursday with cloud in the south—west and then rain coming in on thursday. that will make the gravy a little bit lighter. i have booked a slot.

three o'clock, tomorrow, you and me. gravy wrestling? i can hardly contain my excitement. hardly contain the gravy. thank you. talking about sporting triumphs... i do not have to know how you can link back. after an incredible six weeks in australia, england player ella toone is now back on home soil. ella helped lead the lionesses to success at the euros last year and won silver at the world cup. let's see some of her highlights. commentator: ella toone is through here. ella toone for england! what a goal! england, european champions. it's toone!

shortest distances, or risk getting a £180 fine. it has been introduced to reduce pollution, and no grace period has been announced for drivers to get used to the new zone, which means drivers can expect fines from today if they do not pay. and drivers are being warned about so—called copycat websites when the go to pay ulez online, because illegal websites have been treated to look like the transport for london website. they will collect money from drivers but it will not actually pay the ulez. tfl says it is working with search engines to remove the sites. there will be people who are fooled by copycat websites whatever it is, whether it is dealing with tfl or your bank. you have to double check, it is an unfortunate symptom of modern life, and as i say, as a public institution, we do everything we can to work with the internet companies to remove them when we identify them. a large clear—up has already started after the notting hill carnival.

around 2 million people were on the streets in vibrant costumes and to hear sounds and taste flavours of the caribbean. it was overwhelmingly peaceful over the three days, but as carnival closed, two men were taken to hospital with stab wounds. because of problems with air traffic control yesterday, disruption likely to continue for some days yet, so if you're flying, do check the status of your flight before you leave home. now a look at the tube board, and a good service on all lines. time now for a look at the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a largely cloudy start this morning. we will, however, see it break to give some sunny spells, but also some well scattered showers. now, the cloud this morning, you see, is fairly thick. but like i said, it will break up. temperatures getting up to around 21 celsius, showers more likely as we head into the afternoon, and the cloud will thicken

as we head into the evening. that's an approaching cold front, bringing perhaps some heavier showers as we head through the first part of the night, clearing gradually through the early hours, and then by dawn revealing clear skies. so under those clear skies, temperatures a little fresher, 8 celsius the minimum temperature. now for tomorrow, a bright start with some sunshine, but then our next front moves further south. so any sunshine we get first thing will give way to a bit more cloud for the afternoon. still some sunny spells, still the chance of some scattered showers tomorrow, but fewer perhaps than today. and temperatures getting up to 20 celsius. now, as we head further through the week, conditions do stay rather unsettled, we will see some sunshine, showers at times, and temperatures staying in the low 20s. more on today's ulez expansion on your bbc local radio station this morning. that's all for now. i'll be back in half an hour. back now tojon and sally. bye— bye.

hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. there are warnings that knock—on disruption could last for days across uk airports after a "technical issue" brought air traffic control systems to a standstill. our reporter phil mccann joins us now from liverpool john lennon airport. phil, what's the situation there this morning? good morning. it has set this place is welcome a small airport, just not as big as the likes of manchester or heathrow or gatwick, not as many fights to disrupt here, but a handful of cancelled flights this morning, including the one meant to go over to dublin, just a short jaunt from here, people often go for day trips. i spoke to a few people earlier who were meant to be crossing the irish sea right now. we have put to take the kids to dublin

asking for advice on what to do if you've been caught up in the air travel distruption. simon calderjoins us now and is going to answer some of your questions. before people ask, simon is at sea at the moment, not in an airport waiting room, probably the best place to be. can you claim for loss of earnings if you cannot get a flight back home and you must work days? flight back home and you must work da s? . , flight back home and you must work da s? ., , , ., ~ flight back home and you must work das? .,y ,., ~ days? really good question. an awful lot of people — days? really good question. an awful lot of people who _ days? really good question. an awful lot of people who are _ days? really good question. an awful lot of people who are due _ days? really good question. an awful lot of people who are due back i days? really good question. an awful lot of people who are due back in i lot of people who are due back in the office or their workplace today will be wondering exactly that. and the short answer is, no, in the sense that air passenger rights rules are absolutely plain in making it clear that airlines are responsible for covering direct costs, which could be a hotel room, meals, it could be an alternative flight, but they are not obliged to cover consequential losses. now, i dare say there may be, for example,

some very good lawyers who are stranded in various parts of the mediterranean right now, and they will be looking closely at the consumer rights act to see if there is possibly a case for claiming from the national air traffic service providerfor the national air traffic service provider for failing the national air traffic service providerforfailing to the national air traffic service provider for failing to act within reasonable care and skill. we are still a very long way from knowing what caused the problem, of course, so i do not want to be premature to suggest that might happen. otherwise, i'm afraid all i can do is suggest you have a look at your travel insurance policy, it may well be offering a token of £25 for every 12 hours you are delayed. interesting you should mention insurance, because this next question also mentions that, who pays for the extra costs? should people claim offer insurance for everything other than the flights themselves?— themselves? no, it is very clear what your— themselves? no, it is very clear what your rights _ themselves? no, it is very clear what your rights are, _ themselves? no, it is very clear what your rights are, and i themselves? no, it is very clear what your rights are, and by i themselves? no, it is very clear what your rights are, and by the

way, morning live will cover this in more detail, so stay tuned for that. but the general principle is that if a flight is cancelled, the airline is absolutely responsible for looking after everybody who is on that flight. that means finding an alternative transportation as soon as possible, including paying for another airline. as possible, including paying for anotherairline. it as possible, including paying for another airline. it also includes hotel rooms if you can get one, and i'm sorry to say that many of the 200,000 people waking up where they did not expect to be this morning have been sleeping on airport floors, and also meals and perhaps can expenses, if for instance you have booked a flight into edinburgh and your plane ends up taking you to manchester. by the way, trans pennine express and lner, the train operators, saying if you do arrive where you are not supposed to, they will give you a free rail tickets to your final destination if it is on their network, if you can prove that you were disrupted. b,

their network, if you can prove that you were disrupted.— their network, if you can prove that you were disrupted. a question here, simon, you were disrupted. a question here, simon. from — you were disrupted. a question here, simon, from somebody _ you were disrupted. a question here, simon, from somebody flying i you were disrupted. a question here, simon, from somebody flying from i simon, from somebody flying from gatwick to greece tomorrow, saying at the moment flight tracking apps and maps say it is going to be ok, but should i trust that and go to the airport anyway, or what should i do? this the airport anyway, or what should i do? �* , the airport anyway, or what should i do? . , , ., do? as we were 'ust saying, at liverpool h do? as we were 'ust saying, at liverpooljohn i do? as we were just saying, at liverpooljohn won _ do? as we were just saying, at liverpooljohn won an - do? as we were just saying, at liverpooljohn won an airport, | liverpooljohn won an airport, people are turning up at airports and sadly finding that flights are cancelled —— as we just saw at liverpooljohn lennon airport. but today, planes, pilots, cabin crew out of position, and the idea is that by cancelling those, airlines will get back to a kind of research by tomorrow morning, which they need to do because it will be an extremely busy weekend. so if you have booked a flight tomorrow, i would be 95% or even a 99% confident that the fight will go ahead, but there could be residual delays of a

couple of hours, butjust take those on the chin. couple of hours, but 'ust take those on the chin.— on the chin. simon, thank you very much, on the chin. simon, thank you very much. keep _ on the chin. simon, thank you very much, keep checking _ on the chin. simon, thank you very much, keep checking seems i on the chin. simon, thank you very much, keep checking seems to i on the chin. simon, thank you very much, keep checking seems to be| on the chin. simon, thank you very i much, keep checking seems to be the message, notjust now that over the next few days. let“s message, notjust now that over the next few days. let's talk now about london“s ultra low emission zone. it has expanded now to include the whole of the capital. good morning and welcome to sutton in south london, i am now within the new expanded ultra low emission zone, which came into effect at midnight this morning. just over there is the royal marsden cancer hospital, an important facility in the area, and one of a number of significant locations that sit within the expanded zone, including heathrow airport and wembley stadium.

ulez isn't new — it's been around since 2019. it was expanded in 2021 up to london's north and south circular roads. now it covers all london boroughs, going up to the m25 in some places. this graffiti here shows some of the strongest opposition to the initiative. there's a charge of £12.50 a day for driving a vehicle in the zone if it doesn't meet certain emissions standards, so older more polluting cars.

people who live in london — but not those visiting — can get money for scrapping their non—compliant vehicle and getting a new one. for cars, grants are up to £2,000. there's more for vans and minibuses. the mayor of london sadiq khan says £160 million is available for the scheme. and 13,000 applications have been approved. the london mayor says ulez is meant to improve air quality, and reduce health problems. but there has been substantial opposition to the expansion across greater london — five conservative—led councils lost a legal challenge. sutton was not among them, but they say they have no tube and a high number of people driving to work, the council even urged residents to sign a petition opposing the expansion and threatened not to install signs and cameras marking the ulez boundary. explain why you are so worried about the scheme. explain why you are so worried about the scheme-— explain why you are so worried about the scheme. from a personal point of view, i the scheme. from a personal point of view. i cannot— the scheme. from a personal point of view, i cannot do _ the scheme. from a personal point of view, i cannot do my _ the scheme. from a personal point of view, i cannot do my job _ the scheme. from a personal point of view, i cannot do my job in _ the scheme. from a personal point of view, i cannot do my job in the i view, i cannot do myjob in the senior care, eye: people in their

that, and that works for a lot of people around here. businesses are going to suffer if they cannot run their vehicles, going to suffer if they cannot run theirvehicles, if going to suffer if they cannot run their vehicles, if people like me cannot do ourjobs and we rely on our cars, you know. and i think also people who want to get out of the house, visit their families, people who want to get out of the house, visit theirfamilies, they won't be able to do that any more. 0k. thank you very much for putting your arguments for and against to us this morning. i should say, the charge applies whether or not you live in london if you're driving into the zone, if you do not know whether your car is compliant that as a check on the tfl website, i did it myself yesterday, you put in your registration number, and it'll tell you if the cart meets the standards or if you have to take might pay daily charge. ben, thank you. the driving force behind ulez is improving air quality in london — and in 2013, nine—year—old ella died following an astma attack,

later becoming the first person in the uk to have air pollution listed as a cause of death. ella lived near a major road in south—east london and a coroner found that air pollution made a material contribution to her death. we'rejoined by ella's mum, rosamund. thank you for talking to us. a big day for people in london, a big change for lots of motorists, we have just heard from ben the divided opinion. when you hear people so opposed to this charge, saying it is going to be a huge imposition on their lives and their family budgets, what do you say to them? i budgets, what do you say to them? i say to them, firstly, thank you very much for having me, and i say we are heading to week 37, september the 11th to the 17th, it is the week in the united kingdom that has the most hospital admissions from paediatric asthma. i say to them, since our�*s

death, over 60 children have died from asthma, and every year in london, between eight and i2 london, between eight and 12 children continue to die from asthma. i say to them that during the pandemic, the first lockdown, from the 23rd of march to the lith of july and 2020, the first time ever, no child died from asthma. in this country, let alone city. so the evidence is there, you are actually lower the emissions, and children will not have asthma attacks and be admitted into hospital, let alone die. it is a disgrace that in 2023, we still have the worst asthma deaths in europe. it is unacceptable. boys especially, between the ages of 13 and 15, appeared to be the most vulnerable. so i urge everybody to think about the 250,000 children in london between the ages of five and i9

the 250,000 children in london between the ages of five and 19 who have an asthma diagnosis, and that is not even counting children under the age of five.— is not even counting children under the age of five. rosamund, looking at the ulez expansion _ the age of five. rosamund, looking at the ulez expansion of _ the age of five. rosamund, looking at the ulez expansion of this - at the ulez expansion of this morning, do you think it goes far enough? morning, do you think it goes far enouuh? ., , morning, do you think it goes far enouuh? . , ., , ., ., enough? that is not up to me to decide. during _ enough? that is not up to me to decide. during our's _ enough? that is not up to me to decide. during our's inquest, - enough? that is not up to me to | decide. during our's inquest, the mayor of london's office were urged tjy mayor of london's office were urged by every single expert to expand ulez across london, that is what the data showed. the government were a part of that inquest, they know this needs to happen, otherwise it will contravene the clean air policy, and one of the things, may i remind all the parties, and the government, the coroner were urged all of them to work together to clean up the air, and there will be a health summit again, and i will be inviting every single person that the coroner wrote to. the department of health, the

department for transport, deaf, all the royal colleges, and we all need to get together to put the health of the nation first —— death —— defra. there will be families watching this morning who are struggling right now, the might have an older vehicle that they have to make journeys into and out of london, they might be struggling to pay for that, can you understand where they are coming from? ~ , ,., , understand where they are coming from? ~ , ., ., ., understand where they are coming from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest — from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest do _ from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest do not _ from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest do not even _ from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest do not even have - from? absolutely, and also to say, the poorest do not even have a - the poorest do not even have a vehicle, they will be the ones standing at bus stops this morning, inhaling the toxic fumes, of course i do, that is why i have been lobbying the mayor to extend the scrappage scheme, specially blue badge holders, to make sure

everybody who has got a blue badge is entitled to the scrappage scheme. i am sure... i have not spoken to the can be met yet, but i'm sure he will continue to listen. i urged them, i was behind it, will continue to listen. i urged them, iwas behind it, he will continue to listen. i urged them, i was behind it, he needs to be at the health of young children. we cannot live in a society whereby the youngest of us continue to die, it is unacceptable. find the youngest of us continue to die, it is unacceptable.— it is unacceptable. and finally, rosamund. — it is unacceptable. and finally, rosamund, for _ it is unacceptable. and finally, rosamund, for all _ it is unacceptable. and finally, rosamund, for all children, i l it is unacceptable. and finally, - rosamund, for all children, i know ella is in your mind when you're talking about this, do you think there is a significant possibility that this new rule might save children like ella? i that this new rule might save children like ella?— that this new rule might save children like ella? i was spotted some of it _ children like ella? i was spotted some of it would _ children like ella? i was spotted some of it would ask— children like ella? i was spotted some of it would ask me - children like ella? i was spotted some of it would ask me that. l children like ella? i was spotted| some of it would ask me that. it children like ella? i was spotted i some of it would ask me that. it is very difficult to say. the first time it came in, it took off 7a,000 dirty vehicles off the road, and thatis dirty vehicles off the road, and that is something i have to get used

to that, that if this had been brought in earlier, then she might have lived. whether that would have killed her asthma is difficult to say, she had one of the worst cases of asthma ever in the uk. but i'm thinking about the children who live with asthma are now in the capital, and can people please think about those children? when back to school is an incredibly tricky time, and i urge all parents, carers, to have a look at the asthma pumps and inhalers, to make sure they are in date, please. inhalers, to make sure they are in date. please-— date, please. very good advice. rosamund _ date, please. very good advice. rosamund adoo-kissi-debrah, | date, please. very good advice. - rosamund adoo-kissi-debrah, thank rosamund adoo—kissi—debrah, thank you so much for talking to us this morning, thank you. the time now is 8.50. lots of you getting in touch about ulez, and with questions about the air traffic delays, about if you have to end up paying extra childcare costs, people flying

tomorrow, when do we find out if our flights will be delayed? morning live will be answering some of those questions at 9.15, so stay tuned here on bbc one for answers. ever since joe wicks started running his online fitness sessions in lockdown, he's been on a mission to help children — and parents — live healthier lives. this school term, he also wants to help teachers improve their physical and mental health. we'll talk to joe about that shortly, but first, let's see some of those routines. good morning, everybody, i good morning, everybody, lam back.

a school in scotland where a lady comes in at lunchtime and just does a fitness class in the playground, and it was accessible to everybody. my and it was accessible to everybody. my kids' school used to do that, the caretaker every friday lunchtime, all dancing and getting fit, great idea. you're also turning your attention to the teachers themselves, and their health and well—being, aren't you? themselves, and their health and well-being, aren't you?— themselves, and their health and well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of --eole well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do _ well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do not — well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do not know _ well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do not know this, - well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do not know this, but - well-being, aren't you? yeah. a lot of people do not know this, but i i of people do not know this, but i worked as a teaching assistant for a year before i was a personal trainer, in a very challenging school. i realised and that yet how difficult it was, being a teacher. it is a very stressfuljob, under a lot of pressure, so in that process they do not find time for themselves, so they are not exercising, struggling with their diet, so i thought i could help teachers move and be active, and we encourage that one teacher to be healthy and happy, that can have a massive waterfall effect onto the children. so we are now giving the body coach up to every single teacher in the uk to three months ——

for three months to try it, last year 100,000 teachers to a pay offer, and it has made an impact. what is your advice to a teacher who perhaps is working a bit too hard, really long hours, not eating particularly well, where do you start? it particularly well, where do you start? , ,, ., , particularly well, where do you start? , ,, ., i. start? it is essentially about findin: start? it is essentially about finding the _ start? it is essentially about finding the time _ start? it is essentially about finding the time and - start? it is essentially about finding the time and not - start? it is essentially about - finding the time and not putting yourself under pressure to do an hour work—out at the gym, saw 25 minutes a day, find that time, seeing it not as a punishment but a reward. i will help you lose that stress, it will help you sleep, it is about daily wins, a little work—out, and if you can, preparing your meals for lunch, it is little thing like that that will make a difference. exercise is not a punishment, it is a reward, you have to lean against it when you're having a difficult time and it can change your life completely.

obviously that is true, but i bet teachers are watching this morning who will say, is he for real? i work all day, then i get home, how to do my marking and look after my own family, i have chose to do and everything, ijust don't have time for me. everything, i 'ust don't have time for me. ., , ., everything, i 'ust don't have time for me. . , ., ., for me. that is the dilemma that i alwa s for me. that is the dilemma that i always have _ for me. that is the dilemma that i always have to — for me. that is the dilemma that i always have to face. _ for me. that is the dilemma that i always have to face. people - for me. that is the dilemma that i always have to face. people do i always have to face. people do struggle with time, if you think back to my lean on 15 recipes, you have to believe you can find that time, because it is essential to be happy and healthy and patient and calm to take on the stresses of life, it is essential for us, so calm to take on the stresses of life, it is essentialfor us, so i'm 20 break down that barrier and saying i have got time, when you do, your life takes on the pressures of being a teacher. tlime your life takes on the pressures of being a teacher.— your life takes on the pressures of being a teacher. one of the things i liked about — being a teacher. one of the things i liked about the _ being a teacher. one of the things i liked about the vespers _ being a teacher. one of the things i liked about the vespers is, - being a teacher. one of the things i liked about the vespers is, if i being a teacher. one of the things i liked about the vespers is, if you i liked about the vespers is, if you do not have an ingredient, you would always say, if you don't have this, do that, it does not have to have

everything in it, you can do your own version. i think people think fitness as may be the same, you have to be good or perfect, but sometimes it is just about having a go. exactly. i get things wrong, but ultimately, the food is quick. simple, fast, delicious, and the workouts are short and accessible, so it is about something you can have in your phone that you can turn to on those stressful days when you're struggling, and you are going to lose weight because it will help you with that, but that is one thing you with that, but that is one thing you see on the scales in the mirror, but the mental health benefits of exercise, that of a will i talk about, because it is about changing your mood, releasing stress from your mood, releasing stress from your body, and being calm and patient when you have 30 screaming kids, you really need that. interesting you are here today because there are a couple of stories in the news about offer processed foods and the dangers of them, urging middle—aged men to get a grip on their lifestyles and the papers today talking about the risk of heart attacks and trying to test

blood pressure. despite everything you have achieved, do you get frustrated that we are still, as a nation, pretty unhealthy? i frustrated that we are still, as a nation, pretty unhealthy? ithink about it every — nation, pretty unhealthy? ithink about it every day, _ nation, pretty unhealthy? ithink about it every day, making i nation, pretty unhealthy? i think. about it every day, making people feel like they can exercise, they can cook healthily, but sometimes you feel like, what is healthy? i watched a netflix documentary about processed foods in the us, let us in bags, salads and things, everything seems to be unhealthy, so it is quite confusing at times. i try to keep it simple, get back to home cooking, we will all enjoy some processed food at some point, but if you can go back to simple home cooking, but you just have to take the first step, it is hard work, being active and healthy and in this world we live in with the technology and the pace below that, it has become harder, sol and the pace below that, it has become harder, so i really have to inspire people to take a step and get moving, which is what i do every day. get moving, which is what i do every da . . ., get moving, which is what i do every da ., ., . ~' get moving, which is what i do every day. joe, thank you for coming in, treat to day. joe, thank you for coming in, great to see _ day. joe, thank you for coming in, great to see you — day. joe, thank you for coming in, great to see you as _ day. joe, thank you for coming in, great to see you as ever. - day. joe, thank you for coming in, great to see you as ever. top i great to see you as ever. top tips, and one tip, cold shower,

your company. this is the question we are asking today... from today, if you drive a noncompliant car or van anywhere in greater london, you will be charged £12 50 per day. this is part of sadiq khan's expansion of ulez. but it is notjust about london, these clean—air zones are being set up right across the country. this may be happening where you are living as well, slightly different schemes, but always the same mission, and isn't it better for the panic, for our health, for our well—being if we step out of our cars and find alternative means of transport? the mayor of london claims most cars driving through greater london are already compliant with ulez, but what if your vehicle isn't and you can't afford to replace it even with help from the government scrappage scheme? what if you live on the outer edges and you cannot get any financial help but

you need to go into london for work,
