we can bring you a breaking line on the top story, the fire that has engulfed a building in dagenham in east london. these are drone pictures from the middle of the night. home secretary yvette cooper has just issued a statement in which she has said, my thoughts are with all those affected by the major fire incident in dagenham. i thank london fire brigade and all emergency services on the ground for their bravery and swift response. she also said ministers were being kept updated on the incident. that's the first word we have had from the home secretary on this big fire that is in a block of flats, and it has other uses as well, but the building

in east london, as you can see from these drone pictures, really dramatic fire out there, and it happened, the first call the emergency services got was around 2.44 this morning. two people have been taken to hospital and more than 100 residents have been evacuated. the fire brigade have declared a major incident in dagenham. work had also been under way, we are told, to remove noncompliant cladding on the flats. the fire brigade say the building had a number of fire safety issues known to officials. of course, when you see pictures like that you think back to the grenfell disaster. at the moment the fire brigade, we heard from correspondent helena wilkinson, they cannot confirm whether there is anyone still in the building or whether everyone has got out. but we know that two people have been taken to hospital and more than 100 residents

have been evacuated, many of those now in temporary accommodation and being looked after. we have a live page “p being looked after. we have a live page up and running on the bbc news website and app. scan the qr code you can see on the right—hand side of your screen and it will take to that. the latest news in the last few minutes, yvette cooper, the home secretary, thanking firefighters and emergency workers for their bravery and quick response. the notting hill carnival main parade is due to start just about now. the celebrations continue, despite the stabbing of three people at the festival on sunday. a 32—year—old woman is in a life—threatening condition in hospital. two men in their 20s were also stabbed. let's go now live to notting hill, where we can speak with our correspondent lucy grey. we will talk about the parade in a moment, but can you update us on those stabbing incidents yesterday?

stabbing. —— in solingen. speaks german. the german chancellor speaking there, we don't have the

the german chancellor speaking there, we don't have i of speaking at the scene of the stabbing in solingen. he said this is terrorism against us all, this is the first line we are getting from the first line we are getting from the translation as he is there in that city. 0ver the translation as he is there in that city. over the weekend there was a church service in the city. there was a lot of shock, as you can imagine, at this incident that happened on friday. the city itself wasth anniversary with thousands of people expected in the city on friday when this incident happened. after that, those celebrations and commemorations were stopped. a lot of people were in shock, we saw people laying flowers at the scene. the german chancellor 0laf scholz has gone to the city of solingen to commemorate the victims of that mass stabbing. he is saying this was

terrorism against us all and so we can theirs see him at the scene and i'm sure he will also be answering questions from journalists after this incident. it has raised the question in germany around asylum seekers. and of course, it's a big political issue because the far—right party, the afd, want all migration stopped. whereas the party of 0laf scholz say that asylum seekers who commit crimes must be deported. we will keep an eye on those pictures and as we get more of the translation as to what 0laf scholz is saying at the scene we will bring it to you. at the moment he has been saying that this was terrorism against us all. we are trying to work on a translation from

the german chancellor, who is there at the scene, addressing the people who have gathered. i think we have now got the translation so we can listen into what he is saying. translation:— listen into what he is saying. translation: , ., , . translation: weapons, and restrict those even more, _ translation: weapons, and restrict those even more, especially - translation: weapons, and restrict those even more, especially where i translation: weapons, and restrict those even more, especially where it| those even more, especially where it concerns knives. this will happen very quickly. and the government will submit a proposal and we will discuss this in parliament and something will be decided very quickly. we will do everything that those who are not allowed to stay in germany will be deported. and the legislation that we have decided in

the states and federal government, we have the possibility to deport these individuals. we are going to look exactly, if we see and think that legislation is necessary, but we will increase the numbers of those who can be deported. 0f those who can be deported. of course, there is a question, if some of these asylum seekers have previously been in other european countries, it is our goal how we can

continue this practice and to establish a task force that will look at this in detail. how we can develop these things in practice. some things will have to be changed on a european basis. and this also relates to illegal migrants. we need good information. we have border controls and we want to reduce the number of people, who are illegal migrants, and that is also something that means we need to continue working on this and not be complacent. i spoke about my anger

earlier. and this anger is directed at the islamists. they are threatening the peaceful coexistence of christian people, jewish people and muslim people. we will not allow them to ruin and destroy our peaceful coexistence. we will counter this forcefully. we will pursue them, that is what is necessary. it was very emotional to meet the emergency services. they are really fantastic citizens. they are the ones who make a difference and they

deserve our solidarity. they helped and they did not even think about their own safety. they deserve the dignity. thank you very much. translation: yes, the reports of the emerten translation: yes, the reports of the emergency services, _ translation: yes, the reports of the emergency services, they _ translation: yes, the reports of the emergency services, they brought i translation: yes, the reports of the emergency services, they brought us i emergency services, they brought us to tears— emergency services, they brought us to tears and — emergency services, they brought us to tears and they touched everyone. very young — to tears and they touched everyone. very young people, they helped people — very young people, they helped people who were thirsty or who needed — people who were thirsty or who needed a — people who were thirsty or who needed a band—aid. they saw things

of the growing number of people who've had to wear a tag many times, either because of multiple offences or for breaching their conditions. in a moment we'll talk to the director of the programme, but first let's take a look. christian is on his ninth tag. it's a gps that tracks his location at all times. this one is what got me out of prison. so it's a godsend. having this tag on my ankle is a constant reminder that my freedom is literally one mistake away from being taken away from me. christian is looking back at his life before prison. from video: definitely don't want to go back to prison... l about five years ago, that's when i got put on tag as a last—ditch hope to keep me out of prison, and my last chance. and, well, we all know how that ended, didn't it? i ended up doing four years at her majesty's pleasure for aggravated burglary. six months into christian's

jail term, his mum died. my mum never told me, she didn't tell me she was ill. i was the last one to know. i was in a very uncompassionate situation. but on the other end of it, i came out of it. if i can get through my mum dying, i can pretty much get through anything. well, priority number one is don't breach my tag, don't go back to prison. stick to what i've agreed to, keep my freedom. that's a taste from britain's most tagged. let's speak to the director of the programme, izzy fonseca. thank you for your time. what did you feel you learned from following these individuals? i you feel you learned from following these individuals?— these individuals? i was listening to that clip _ these individuals? i was listening to that clip again. _ these individuals? i was listening to that clip again. i _ these individuals? i was listening to that clip again. i think- these individuals? i was listening to that clip again. i think what's l to that clip again. i think what's interesting is that these people are multifaceted, and we are not kind of just the sum of the worst thing we

have ever done. there is a reason that some people go down this route of crime and other people don't. they've not had necessarily the same opportunities. the thing that came up opportunities. the thing that came up a lot in filming was the question of choice and whether they felt they had much choice in their lives and growing up. it was a resounding no, really. that was really interesting. and just the amount of time that people actually spend on tag. christian, who we just saw, he spent one year on tag, which is a really long time to have something on your ankle, this constant reminder, and these restrictions. hope ankle, this constant reminder, and these restrictions.— ankle, this constant reminder, and these restrictions. how big a factor is social deprivation _ these restrictions. how big a factor is social deprivation in _ these restrictions. how big a factor is social deprivation in the - is social deprivation in the individuals that are having to be tagged? individuals that are having to be tat ted? ., ~

nowhere to go, so they are out on the streets. the main factor, and police have said it, we see it as youth workers, and young people are essentially holding and carrying knives because they are scared, they have nowhere to go, they are scared they will get hurt, and that's why they will get hurt, and that's why they carry knives. youth centres are a comfort for them was that they are allowed to create music, they are allowed to create music, they are allowed to create music, they are allowed to get creative in the arts and media, and they really enjoy that in our youth spaces. i and media, and they really en'oy that in our youth spaces. i suppose the problem _ that in our youth spaces. i suppose the problem is. — that in our youth spaces. i suppose the problem is, and _ that in our youth spaces. i suppose the problem is, and you _ that in our youth spaces. i suppose the problem is, and you have i the problem is, and you have described youth spaces, and things to do, all of that costs money, doesn't it?— to do, all of that costs money, doesn't it? absolutely, it costs mone , doesn't it? absolutely, it costs money. and — doesn't it? absolutely, it costs money, and when _ doesn't it? absolutely, it costs money, and when you - doesn't it? absolutely, it costs money, and when you are i doesn't it? absolutely, it costs money, and when you are notl doesn't it? absolutely, it costs i money, and when you are not being treated as essential or professional a lot of the time then i think i work gets downplayed and we get underfunded. we are always the ones being cut, whether it's youth provisions, time and again. i am lucky to be in the borough of islington where we have quite a few

youth projects. you see it across london, and even in our borough where we have a lot going, it is continuously being shot down, underfunded, and we are always at the end of it, countless times. [30 the end of it, countless times. do ou the end of it, countless times. do you think there is a fact that young people don't trust authority, they don't trust police to be able to help them if there is trouble? yes. help them if there is trouble? yes, absolutely- — help them if there is trouble? yes, absolutely. we _ help them if there is trouble? yes, absolutely. we have _ help them if there is trouble? yes, absolutely. we have seen - help them if there is trouble? ieis absolutely. we have seen it in the last few years, young people but also women and girls who don't trust the police for countless reasons. they are all pretty valid a lot of the time. i absolutely don't want to discredit the police, they are amazing at keeping us safe. we want to let our young people know they are there to do that. however, some incidents have happened that could have created distrust among young people. it's about rebuilding bridges and that only happens with youth workers to help fill the gap. the amnesty, going to the police station, getting compensation for

knives, that's all well and great, but in order to get to the police station, to build up the courage, we play a vital role in that and that needs to be credited and acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank ou acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank you for— acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank you for your _ acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank you for your insight - acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank you for your insight into i acknowledged in some way. tyler, thank you for your insight into this j thank you for your insight into this issue, which i know is a big one, we appreciate your time, youth worker tyler clancy. i will have a summary of the news that the top of the hour. now it's the bank holiday everywhere but scotland. hello if you are working and watching in scotland. it's time for the weather with carol kirkwood. hello again. today is not going to be as wet or as windy as it was yesterday, and it will be a bit warmer. and in fact, as we go through this week, what you will notice is it's going to turn warmer for a time. the peak will probably be on wednesday. it will dip, then pick up at the weekend. there'll be some sunshine, but there'll also be spells of rain. if we look at the air mass chart, you can see how on wednesday we see the amber colours return, then we've got the cooler

yellows, but as we head back into the weekend, the amber colours start to return, showing that increase in temperature. today, though, we still do have areas of cloud floating around. there will be sunny intervals as well. the early morning rain really breaking up across northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland, where we could catch the odd shower through the day. but temperatures, 14 to about 23 degrees north to south. but later, the cloud is going to thicken out towards the west, the wind will strengthen and we'll start to see some rain arrive. and this rain across western scotland will be particularly heavy, 40 millimetres quite possible by the end of the night, falling on already very saturated ground. 0vernight lows between 10 and about 16 degrees. we start tomorrow, then, on a dry note for england and for wales, but our band of heavy rain continues to push slowly southeastwards. the sunshine will turn hazy ahead of it and behind it we see a return to bright spells, sunshine and also a few showers, more especially in the northwest. but despite that, temperatures up. looking at 16 in stornoway, 19 in newcastle, to a high of 25 or 26 in the southeast.

tuesday into wednesday, the weather front continues to sink south but it could develop a wave, so it might take the rain on it a little bit further north for a time. but as this front tries to push eastwards during the course of wednesday, it's running into an area of high pressure, so it will be a fairly weak affair. some drier conditions behind it, but heavy, potentially thundery, showers coming in across western scotland and northern ireland. but this is when we are expecting the highest temperatures, up to 27, maybe higher than that in the southeast. that weather front eventually pushes away, thursday and friday, and we've got this ridge of high pressure building in behind it. so what we're looking at as we head on into thursday once again is a fair bit of dry weather, some showers in the north. it'll be fresher for all but warming up into the weekend.
