of fear" at british gymnastics camps. reddin "completely refuted" the claims, which were not upheld and her suspension was lifted, but another independent investigation is ongoing into "further historical complaints." that's all the sport for now. bbc sport website for all those stories and more. breaking news. the former labour mp claudia webbe has lost her appeal hearing over a conviction for harassment and she will now have to consider a ten week suspended sentence. she is a former mp and had been convicted for harassing a love rival. she represents leicester east as an independent because she was expeued as an independent because she was expelled from the labour party and targeted michelle merritt between 2018 and 2020. prosecutors say the campaign was driven byjealousy and obsession over her boyfriend's relationship with michelle merritt, who told the court that claudia webbe called her some fairly inappropriate names and had threatened to behave in a pretty difficult way, threatening to reveal embarrassing photographs for example to herfamily. i'mjust embarrassing photographs for example to herfamily. i'm just reading the details as we get them. claudia webbe is a former adviser to the national police chiefs' council on firearms and was found guilty of harassment and handed a ten week suspended jail sentence after a trial at westminster magistrates' court last year. she appeared at southwark crown court today but has again been found guilty by a judge in two magistrates so has lost her appeal in that case. more now on the chancellor rishi sunak setting out measures to address the rising cost of living, as the government seeks to draw a line under partygate. one—off payments of different amounts will be given to the most vulnerable — the elderly, those with disabilities, and those with the lowest incomes. all households will receive a £400 discount on energy bills — and eight million of the lowest income families will also get a one—off payment of £650. we should not be ideological about this, we should be pragmatic. it is possible to both tax extraordinary profits fairly and incentivise investment. and so like previous governments, including conservative ones, we will introduce a temporary, targeted energy profits levy, but we have built into the new levy... laughter and shouting. but we have built into the new levy... into the new levy an annual investment allowance that means companies will have a new and significant incentive to reinvest their profits. the new levy will be charged on profits of oil and gas companies at a rate of 25%. it will be temporary and when oil and gas prices return to historically more normal levels. the levy will be phased out with a sunset clause written into the legislation and, crucially, with our new investment allowance we are nearly doubling the overall investment relief for oil and gas companies. that means that for every pound a company invests they will get back 90% in tax relief. so, the more a company invests, the less tax they will pay. joining me now is the shadow chancellor rachel reeves mp. borisjohnson seemed to be enjoying that announcement even though it is effectively a u—turn. i don't know if you could hear that, he was shouting out quite a bit. how does it feel to have some of your policy is taken? is this a measure of success for you or do you think the government hasn't gone far enough? well, it's clear where the ideas and politics are coming from and that is the labour party. we first called for a windfall tax on the huge profits that north sea oil and gas companies are making, at the beginning ofjanuary, four and a half months ago. the chancellor and the prime minister has been dragged kicking and screaming to the point we have reached today and finally, they have accepted the unanswerable calls for a windfall tax to help families and to help pensioners with the extraordinary increases in their gas and electricity bills, as well as higherfood prices over the gas and electricity bills, as well as higher food prices over the last few months. so, i welcome the u—turn, i'm disappointed how long it's taken to get here. and i think we also need from the government a longer term plan so we don'tjust lurch from crisis to crisis and we don't end up in the same spot in a year's time. don't end up in the same spot in a year's time-— year's time. once they write, thou . h, year's time. once they write, though. to — year's time. once they write, though, to consider - year's time. once they write, though, to consider more i year's time. once they write, i though, to consider more widely before they made this decision a windfall tax doesn't raise enough in terms of paying for all these measures to bring support and the conservatives don't want to increase the national debt, although it seems there will have to be some borrowing?— there will have to be some borrowing? there will have to be some borrowin: ? ., ., , borrowing? the government has said toda the borrowing? the government has said today they are _ borrowing? the government has said today they are going _ borrowing? the government has said today they are going to _ borrowing? the government has said today they are going to be _ borrowing? the government has said today they are going to be borrowing j today they are going to be borrowing an additional 10 billion and they've admitted today that a windfall tax could bring in 5 billion. and yet they been resisting it for months and they said it would put off investment, the chief executive of bp said it would have no impact on investment, they said that energy companies were struggling, the energy company said the energy crisis is like a cash machine for their businesses. the government have made excuse after excuse for why they weren't going to do a windfall tax, they got their mps to vote against it three times in parliament. it is only because of the persistence of labour mps that today they've been forced into this u—turn. we welcome that because it will make a big difference, as we've been saying for months, to families and pensioners.— been saying for months, to families and pensioners. does everyone need mone off and pensioners. does everyone need money off their _ and pensioners. does everyone need money off their bills? _ and pensioners. does everyone need money off their bills? even - money off their bills? even those who frankly don't need £400 in the pocket extra? 0r who can cope without it? everyone is feeling the squeeze, of course. i without it? everyone is feeling the squeeze, of course.— squeeze, of course. i asked the chancellor _ squeeze, of course. i asked the chancellor if _ squeeze, of course. i asked the chancellor if people _ squeeze, of course. i asked the chancellor if people with i squeeze, of course. i asked the i chancellor if people with multiple properties will get multiple £400 payments to help with their bills. so if you've got a second or third home, are you going to get 400 times two or three? i don't think that makes much sense and that's why i asked the question today, which he didn't answer. it's of course right to target the support of those people who most need it but there are also people who are just above the benefits line, struggling also with their gas and electricity bills. mums and dads who thought they were doing 0k bills. mums and dads who thought they were doing ok but are now incredibly worried about how they are going to pay the bills during these really difficult times. it is right, and it's why labour have been calling for a cut in vat on gas and electricity bills from 5% to 0% to give support to everybody, but target then additional support at those people who need it most. that's the right approach during a cost of living crisis. share that's the right approach during a cost of living crisis.— cost of living crisis. are there more measures _ cost of living crisis. are there more measures you - cost of living crisis. are there more measures you think- cost of living crisis. are there more measures you think the government could consider and will they be forced to because inflation is still going up? they be forced to because inflation is still going op?— is still going up? well, i think it's the longer— is still going up? well, i think it's the longer term _ is still going up? well, i think it's the longer term challenge j is still going up? well, i think- it's the longer term challenge we've got which is why last october, keir starmer called for a big programme of home insulation to take money off people's gas and electricity bills notjust people's gas and electricity bills not just for people's gas and electricity bills notjust for one year but people's gas and electricity bills not just for one year but for years to come. and a programme of insulating people's homes could boost energy security so we are importing less oil and gas from overseas. it could help us get to net zero but most crucially it could take £400 off of people's bills every year and i think it was notable that in today's announcements, welcome as a short—term measures are, there was no real plan for getting a grip with some of the long term, underlying issues around energy security or indeed plans to grow our economy so that people are earning higher wages and are less reliant on benefits or one—off payments from government. in one—off payments from government. in terms of the politics of this, rachel reeves, borisjohnson is still in downing street looking pretty secure even though there has been some level of criticism from his own side this morning. and the chancellor seems to be, again, back on the front foot, as he was over furlough, is helping people who most need it in a time of unprecedented crisis. the conservatives really have an unprecedented majority in parliament and they look like they are back on stride, don't they? well, i'm not usually a cynical person but i think you have to ask the question why it was that today was the day we got the u—turn on a windfall tax and support for families and pensioners. was it perhaps because the government wanted to get off the front pages of the newspapers and on the news bulletins the stories of the culture of drinking and parties and illegality in downing street? but i think people can see today that the ideas in politics come from the labour party, where labour lead the tories now follow. we welcome the support to families and pensioners but labour were doing it because we felt it was the right thing to do. the tories are doing it because they'd been dragged kicking and screaming to this point. fine they'd been dragged kicking and screaming to this point. one final ruestion, screaming to this point. one final

with plans in future. obviously, the government is looking at reviewing the whole future funding of the bbc. ijust wondered, what is the labour party position on that because we are about to be announcing huge changes here? ~ ., ., , , ., here? well, the labour party is a big sopporter_ here? well, the labour party is a big sopporter of _ here? well, the labour party is a big supporter of

also here? well, the labour party is a i big supporter of the bbc and also of the licence fee. the bbc is a proud british institution and i do think that some of the government's approach notjust on the bbc but on the privatisation of the very successful channel 4, the privatisation of the very successful channel4, is the privatisation of the very successful channel 4, is not the right approach from this government but i haven't seen the specific announcements being made today. thank you very much. we appreciate it. we'll come back to you i'm sure on the cost of living crisis as it unfolds. the bbc has announced plans to close some of its smaller broadcast channels in the next few years and move content online. it also plans to merge its two rolling news channels — bbc world and the bbc news channel — into one 24—hour tv news channel. the changes mean £200 million a year of cuts, as part of efforts to become what's described as being a "digital—first" organisation. 0ur media editor, amol rajan, joins me now. what's been announced ? what's been announced? it's a comlex what's been announced? it's a complex picture _ what's been announced? it's a complex picture to _ what's been announced? it's a complex picture to try - what's been announced? it's a complex picture to try and i what's been announced? it's a i complex picture to try and make sense of. the bbc director general has just sense of. the bbc director general hasjust on an sense of. the bbc director general has just on an all staff meeting where he announced a huge range of proposals. the bbc had for several years already been trying to shift, as every media organisation has done, to become digitalfirst. the bbc is in a difficult position because it's got to make sure licence fee payers consuming through linear channels are kept happy. but basically what we have got today i think the radical acceleration of the bbc shift to a digital media entity and its really an attempt by tim davie as director general to address two big threats. 0ne tim davie as director general to address two big threats. one is financial, the bbc does have a two—year freeze in the licence fee, so the bbc has this amazing privilege of being funded by a licensee, it's been frozen at £159 for two years which means bbc has got to find savings. the second threat is technological, which is that more and more on future licence fee payers are consuming things online and that's not whether bbc resources are focused. to address those challenges there is this £500 million plan, 200 million of savings which the bbc has found 50 million and will have to find another 150 million, and then a 300 million reinvestment which is a reallocation of resources around digital. what that means in practice is among other things, that means in practice is among otherthings, in that means in practice is among other things, in three years or so, there are some channels which will be moving from linear to digital and amongst those is cbbc, the children's channel which i'm addicted to. the content will still be there, there might be some changes in what they do but it will become a digital channel. the same is true true of bbc four which has a lot of archive material and will grow to being digital. radio 4 extra. none of that will happen for the next three years but after three years those three channels will change and become digital. before that there will be a merger of bbc news and bbc world, they will become one. ~ . news and bbc world, they will become one. . ., ., ., , ., one. what did that -- what is that

singular service i there will be a singular service which all the bbcjournalists will be able to contribute to so that shouldn't have an impact on whether the bbc has a destination for breaking news. overall these changes will mean job cuts, breaking news. overall these changes will meanjob cuts, so breaking news. overall these changes will mean job cuts, so there will be “p will mean job cuts, so there will be up to 1000 fewer people employed in the public funded part of the bbc. what you had as a bbc that is not just changing shape at becoming a bit smaller, becoming smaller in relative terms, the bbc used to be a shark in the media pond and is now a sardine in the media ocean. it's also becoming slightly smaller in absolute terms because it's got less money in the short term. less money, fewer people and reduction in money has to go further in that it has to reach people digitally and that is what today is about. it's quite an ambitious bunch of proposals, albeit ambitious bunch of proposals, albeit a continuation of an attempt to shift to digital which we've seen over the last few years. is shift to digital which we've seen over the last few years.- shift to digital

say we are paying the licence fee but not getting the senses we were getting and also, of course, it's difficult for you to discuss this but there is a lot of party politics involved in this in terms of the shape and future of the bbc and how much support there is for the bbc. bbc and how much support there is for the bbc-— for the bbc. there is obviously a risk from people _ for the bbc. there is obviously a risk from people would - for the bbc. there is obviously a risk from people would say i for the bbc. there is obviously a risk from people would say we i for the bbc. there is obviously a i risk from people would say we don't want to pay for this because we aren't getting value for money. i think thejudgment of aren't getting value for money. i think the judgment of the senior leadership at the bbc is you've got to compare with that risk of the young people not paying for the licensee at all. it is a unique british tax and will convince a new generation to pay for that. on the balance of risks, it's more important to address that risk, that's the view of the bbc. one party politics, there was this unique situation where you have a public broadcaster, the bbc is not a state broadcaster, it's a public broadcaster, but it has a curious relationship with the government when it comes under pressure at times although it's regulated by 0fcom. it's true to say that it's operating in a political environment where there is a cost of living crisis and the culture secretary nadine dorries has said, there was a big negotiation, and she said partly to address the cost of living crisis, the licensee will be frozen for a couple of years. this is happening in a political context —— the licence fee. and the consequences of that political context is the bbc has got less money and got to do more with it. i'm conscious of it it sounds like wia, but it's i'm conscious of it it sounds like w1a, but it's true, the bbc has got to reach more people and will have less cash to do so over the next few years. less cash to do so over the next few ears. ~ . . less cash to do so over the next few ears, ~ ., ., , less cash to do so over the next few ears. . ., ., , ., ~ years.

who's 48, was diagnosed with scleroderma, which causes scarring of the skin and organs, as well as what he describes as "horrendous pain." but now, he says — he is pain free. 0ur health correspondent catherine burns has the story. these are the hands that have changed steven gallagher's life. when his consultant first mentioned the idea of a double hand transplant, the 48—year—old wasn't keen. i kind of laughed and i thought that's space age kind of things. no way i'm going through that, kind of thing. but he spent years in pain thanks to scleroderma. it's an autoimmune disease that causes scarring on the skin and internal organs. it got to the point where it was basically two fists, and then it was my hands were unusable, basically, i couldn't do a thing. it shapes your mouth and pulled my teeth back, and it also makes the nose pointy as well. he knew there was a small risk he could lose his hands, but had the surgery in leeds last december. a 12—hour operation involving 30 different people. it's given me another lease of life, basically. yeah, i'm still finding things hard just now, but things are getting better every week. now he's able to do more for himself. there are still things he struggles with. he can't do up buttons, for example, but he's having regular physio and hopes to go back to work in the future. it's thought steven is the first person with scleroderma to have this surgery. for him, the biggest change is the pain. he says it used to be horrendous. now, it's gone. catherine burns, bbc news. it's more than 40 years since abba went on tour. now, from tonight — after a big build up and a new album — fans can see the scandinavian foursome performing some of their greatest hits at a new show in london — thanks to digital technology. 0ur entertainment correspondent colin patterson has been finding out more about the abbatars. music: dancing queen by abba. abba — as you've seen them before, looking like they did in their 1970s heyday. # you are the dancing queen #. six years in the making, tonight it's the premiere of the abba voyage concert, featuring avatars, or, as they've come to be known, abbatars of the band, in a 3,000 capacity purpose—built arena in east london. where's the best place to watch the show in the arena? svana gisla has worked on the project since the start. we want to pull on the emotions, so if you come out of here and feel like you've seen a visual spectacle we have failed, unfortunately. if you've come out of here and feel like you've just seen something that is so emotional that you laughed and you cried and you can't wait to go back, and everyone around you felt the same, that's what we want. # my my, at waterloo napoleon did surrender #. abba performed the songs in front of 160 cameras for five weeks, so every aspect of their movements could be captured. that is so lifelike! quite amazing. when i went to visit them in stockholm last year, they explained that sacrifices had to be made so the avatars could look as accurate as possible. you had to shave the beards for the avatar show, yeah. just how traumatic was that for you? no, again, just a decision. if it has to be done, it has to be done. to the end i tried, is there no other way we can do this? if the show�*s a hit and there's demand around the world, well, in true scandinavian flat pack style, the whole arena can be collapsed, transported and rebuilt in a different country, on a different continent. and that's the dream for abba — to tour the globe bringing joy to thousands, whilst sitting at home in sweden.

stage for the first time in a0 years — as digital avatars. good afternoon and welcome to bbc news. the chancellor rishi sunak has been setting out the government's measures to address the rising cost of living. the chancellor said his package is worth £15 billion. it is expected to be partly paid by a windfall tax on oil and gas companies — something ministers had previously opposed. the measures include eight million of the lowest income households will receive a one—off payment of £650. and from the autumn eight million pensioner households will receive an extra payment of £300. six million people on disability benefits will recieve a one—off payment of £150. and each household in great britain will get a £a00 grant towards their energy bills, with equivalent support pledged by the chancellor for households in northern ireland. the uk's energy regulator 0fgem says typical household energy bills are set to rise by £800 in october, to £2,800 a year. but the chancellor said the government package "will provide significant support for the british people." our political correspondent helen catt reports. as bills have gone up, so has the pressure on the government to do more than it has. the chancellor of the exchequer. this lunchtime, rishi sunak announced £9 billion worth of measures to help households. he scrapped a scheme which would have seen households have to pay back the £200 reduction on their energy bills during the autumn. so, for the avoidance of doubt, this support is now unambiguously a grant. and, furthermore, we've decided that the £200 of support for household energy bills will be doubled to £a00 for everyone. we are on the side of hard—working families with £6 billion of financial support. he announced extra one—off payments, £650 for those on the lowest incomes. 350 to pensioners and 150 to disabled people and there was a major u—turn on how to pay for it. the new levy will be charged from the profits of oil and gas companies at a rate of 25%. it will be temporary and when oil and gas prices return to historically more normal levels, the levy will be phased out with a sunset clause written into the legislation. a tax on the unexpectedly high profits of north sea oil and gas companies had been called for repeatedly by labour. madama deputy speaker, after today's announcement let there be no doubt about who is winning the battle of ideas in britain! it is the labour party! today it feels like the chancellor has finally realised the problem that the country are facing. we first called for a windfall tax on oil and gas producers nearly five months ago. the snp and the lib dems had backed a windfall tax. the government had been resistant. the business secretary said this two days ago. do you support a windfall tax? i've been very clear about a windfall tax. i don't think that it supports investment. i don't think it's necessarily the right thing. but, as i always say, that's up to the chancellor. even at the weekend, downing street sources were indicating that a big announcement on windfall tax wasn't imminent. so, what's changed? well, the government is keen to move on from partygate fast. the announcement earlier this week by the energy regulator that the typical household bill will go up by £800 a year from october is likely to have sharpened its focus. with prices set to keep rising, will this be the last time that rishi sunak has to intervene? helen catt, bbc news, westminster. i spoke to our economics correspondent andy verity earlier about the chancellors statement. and, the scale of this is beyond anything we normally see outside budgets. you're talking about £15 billion pounds of new measures. that would still be a big headline if i was reporting the budget for you but what we are looking at here is an emergency. we are in a way, in the same territory as we were in the pandemic. we've got that here too. we were going to wait until the autumn but he's clearly decided more needs to be done. these aren't normally the sort of measures you would expect from a conservative chancellor who says he's interested in fiscal certainty and curbing inflation. he's spending more. if you look at what he spending helping people universally that figure comes in at £6 billion. that additional money he's announced today is going to everybody in the form of that £a00 discount that we are all going to get on our bills and the key is we won't have to repay it. it was that we were going to repay it but in addition to that, you've got targeted support which is far more than most people anticipated. £9 billion of targeted support. the £650 that's going to 8 million households who receive benefits. that's the sort of thing that anti—poverty charities like the joseph rowntree foundation say is the best way to relieve households hardest hit. the conservative government says it wants to be fiscally cautious but it's putting more into the economy than it's taking out. rishi sunak is trying to say he is a low tax chancellor but taxes are high? we've just had one of the biggest tax rises we've had in decades and that is the health and social care levy. that's going to raise round about £17 billion. in addition, they are freezing income tax. that's gaining £3 billion. he's raised taxes in that respect but there are tax cuts built in but those don't give back anything like what is being taken off from tax rises. so the net effect is actually very redistributive. you're raising money from everyone and you're handing it over to a targeted group that most need it. that's a budget you would often see from a labour chancellor. in terms of what they're calling the temporary targeted levy for the energy companies. is that going to go far enough for those in the labour party who have been calling on it for their policy idea? i notice you are laughing. let's get rid of the euphemisms. lets just call it what it is, a windfall tax. the treasury don't like terms like that but this is a george osbourne responded something quite similar when we had a cost of living crisis after the global financial crisis 11 years ago. it's worth remembering that. oil prices dropped precipitously, we nearly had deflation in 2016 but that distant memory in this crisis. is it possible to say as yet whether these amounts of money that people see in the pockets over the next few months, is it going to be enough or are we going to potentially face continuing calls into the autumn for people to be given more help? if you look at the scale of the bill rise. it's gone from an average of 1200 to 2800. that's a £1600 buys. it's not far off covering that amount for the poorest households. you've got that £50 addition to your benefit but also for hundred pounds off your bills plus the rebates. for the poorest households it is a relief. the rest of us won't cover everything but it will help. but at the same time people are still being squeezed by a hike in taxes.'temporary targeted levy�* for energy companies. here's our political correspondent helen catt with more. the principle of this had been knocking around for quite some time and the government have seemed keen to adopt this going from pretty anti—it to actually bringing it into day and we've seen some of that incorporated into the policy, the fact that they will be this investment relief which i think is going to help them with some backbenchers who might be sceptical about this idea, this sort of tax on company profits, a windfall tax is quite the way they'd want to see things done. i think those sorts of elements are there to try and calm days who perhaps are not ideal logically... this is not what they would have chosen. logically. .. this is not what they would have chosen.— logically... this is not what they would have chosen. they've renege on the council tax _ would have chosen. they've renege on the council tax rebate, _ would have chosen. they've

but the energy line. £200 that they were going to take off people's bills in october but then people's bills in october but then people would have to repay it over £a0 a year over five years. there was criticism it would be alone. so was criticism it would be alone. sr what they've done is to change that. it won't have to be repaid, it won't it will be a grant and they've doubled the amount so every household will get £a00 instead of £200. 50 household will get £a00 instead of £200. so that's quite a big change there. what is interesting there is that it there. what is interesting there is thatitis there. what is interesting there is that it is universal and we've been hearing from the government over recent weeks about things being targeted, more limited, not wanting to do these big, big moves that they had made. this, then, it's one of those universal moves that will go to every household. the understanding is that that will go as a credit on your energy bill so it's not like a rebate where you get cash into your account. this is more of a credit to your energy bills. helen, on the politics and the timing, wejust had the report helen, on the politics and the timing, we just had the report from sue gray yesterday. two conservative mps who said that the prime minster should resign. some criticism about the government trying to bounce or that of the front pages. where do you think the conservatives are today, at the moment? on support for the prime minister or not? so we've had three more conservative mps come out this morning to withdraw their support from borisjohnson. it certainly doesn't feel like it did a few months ago where it was at its height of people being really angry about partygate, of his leadership and direction. this seems to be calmer now but there is a trickle of people on the airways coming out saying that. you are right. the timing of this, it's a big announcement so it entirely be dismissed as a distraction but this is very helpful by announcing this today for downing street, putting things in the agenda that they want to talk aboutjust before parliament breaks for recess. helen catt at westminster, thank you very much. borisjohnson is resisting more calls to resign, after a damning report on government lockdown parties was released. an investigation by the senior civil servant, sue gray, concluded many of the events across whitehall and downing street "should not have been allowed to happen". three more conservative mps have publically called for borisjohnson to step down. john baron, david simmonds and julian sturdy both say it's time for new leadership. joining me now is james johnson, co—founder ofj l partners polling and former head of polling at downing street under theresa may thank you for coming in.

tuesday wrote messages about the attack on facebook moments earlier. salvador ramos was shot dead by police after he barricaded himself inside a classroom. president biden is expected travel to the town of uvalde in the next few days, to meet the families of those killed. our north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports from there. they came for the thoughts and prayers. families held each other tightly to try and make sense of the unimaginable. they sang and prayed. the mood was sombre, and their grief palpable. this couple told us their eight—year—old grandson made it out of the school alive. i went and checked on my grandson. as soon as he saw me, he hugged me, he was so scared. and i cried with him also. i told him, it'll be ok. this is a community that's dealing with profound grief — and people came here inside the arena in their hundreds. usually rodeo shows happen here, but there was a prayer vigil, and people say this is their way of healing. the murder of 19 children and their two teachers has left this country reeling. xavier lopez was in his fourth year at primary school, as was elle garcia and ameriejo, just ten. theirteacher, eva mireles, died jumping in front of her students. they had all been barricaded in one classroom. how would you describe your daughter in a few words? how would you describe her? full of love and full of life. she would do anything for anybody. and to me, she was a firecracker. it comforts me a little bit to think that she'd be the one to help her friends in need there and then. the shooter was next door, and whenever i heard - that he was in room number 18 and the shooter was in 19, - my heartjust dropped. i started panicking, crying. i was thinking that the shooter was shooting everywhere, - that it was going to go through one of the walls and shoot him. - the man who cruelly took their lives was this local teenager, 18—year—old salvador ramos. he sent out messages on social media saying he was going to attack an elementary school. he was killed by police. it's the worst school shooting in a decade. the death of small children has reignited the polarising issue of gun control in america. and whilst politicians unite in grief, they quickly divide on the politics. when in god's name will we do what needs to be done to if not completely stop, fundamentally change the amount of carnage that goes on in this country? republicans here say this isn't about guns. they say strict gun control infringes on american people's constitutional right to bear arms. it divides america deeply and even after a horrific shooting, that divide deepens. the second amendment is a part of our liberties to even be here in america. this is not about politics, gun control is not about politics. guns don't kill people, people kill people. president biden says he will visit the city in the coming days. will this be a turning point? in america, when it comes to tougher gun laws, the grim expectation is either little or nothing will change. in ukraine, russian forces have attacked more than a0 towns in the eastern donetsk and luhansk regions. killed. two key cities have come under intense bombardment, and there's heavy fighting for a crossroads connecting ukranian territory. our ukraine correspondent joe inwood reports from kyiv. russia is trying to take the donbas with overwhelming force. these shots, released by the ukrainian ministry of defence, show a thermobaric bombardment of their positions. russia's current targets are the twin cities of severodonetsk and lysychansk. they're not cut off — yet. but the only route to them has been under increasing bombardment for days. if it becomes impassable, thousands of ukraine's best soldiers may be cut off, along with civilians. towns across the region are emptying out. translation: idon't- know where we are going. we are just trying to get as far away as possible from the war, that is the main thing. the increasing human cost of this war has led to some people questioning whether it's worth ukraine giving up some land to save lives. recently the suggestion was made by former us secretary of state, henry kissinger, at the world economic forum. it's fair to say it did not go down well here in kyiv. translation: no matter. what the russian state does, there's always someone who says, let's take its interests into account. this year in davos it was heard again. despite thousands of russian missiles hitting ukraine, despite tens of thousands of ukrainians killed, despite bucha and mariupol, despite the destroyed cities. and that destruction continues. this footage was released by the kremlin. and every day, the list of destruction gets longer. this is kramatorsk, a key city in the donbas, for both the russians and ukrainians. people know that if, when, severodonetsk falls, their city will be next. yevgen isjust 13. distant bombing he barely flinches at the sound of shelling now. "i got used to it in my village," he says. "that was a 122 shell." the longer this war goes on, the greater the scars — notjust on the towns and villages of this country, but on the people that live there too. joe inwood, bbc news, kyiv. some breaking news this hour that the actor kevin spacey has been charged with four counts of sexual assault against three men. that's come from the crown prosecution service and one of our correspondence has given us more detail on this. there are four offences of sexual assault, contrary to the sexual offences act and one offence of causing a person to gauge in penetrative sexual activity without consent. this took place in 2005, 2008 and 2000 -- 2013. for charges there against the well—known actor and producer kevin spacey. we'll give you more details on that as soon as we can. the bbc has announced plans to close some of its smaller broadcast channels in the next few years and move content online. it also plans to merge its two rolling news channels, bbc world and the bbc news channel, into one 2a—hour tv news channel. the changes mean £200 million pounds a year of cuts, as part of efforts to become what's described as being a "digital—first" organisation. injanuary, in january, the injanuary, the latest licensee settlement was announced, keeping it flat. earlier our media editor, amol rajan, told me more about the changes. the bbc had for several years already been trying to shift, as every media organisation has done, to become digitalfirst. the bbc�*s in a difficult position because it's got to make sure licence fee payers consuming through linear channels are still kept happy. but basically what we have got today i think is the radical acceleration of the bbc shift to a digital media entity, and it's really an attempt by tim davie as director general to address two big threats. one is financial, the bbc does have a two—year freeze in the licence fee, so the bbc has this amazing privilege of being funded by a licence fee, it's been frozen at £159 for two years, which means bbc has got to find savings. after 202a it'll rise by inflation. the second threat is technological, which is that more and more future licence fee payers are consuming things online, and that's not where the bbc�*s resources are focused. to address those challenges there is this £500 million plan, £200 million of savings which the bbc£has found $50 million which the bbc has found £50 million and will have to find another £150 million, and then a £300 million reinvestment which is a reallocation of resources around digital. what that means in practice is among other things, in three years or so, there are some channels which will be moving from linear to digital and amongst those is cbbc, the children's channel which i'm addicted to. so that won't be on the television? it won't be on the television, no. the content will still be there, there might be some changes in what they do but it will become a digital channel. the same is true true of bbc four which has a lot of archive material and will grow to being digital. radio a extra. none of that will happen for the next three years but after three years those three channels will change and become digital. before that there will be a merger of bbc news and bbc world, did tim davie say anything else? i think the idea is there will be a singular service which all the bbc journalists will be able to contribute to so that shouldn't have an impact on whether the bbc has a destination for breaking news. overall these changes will mean job cuts, so there will be up to 1,000 fewer people employed in the public funded part of the bbc. what you have is a bbc that is notjust changing shape at becoming a bit smaller, becoming smaller in relative terms, the bbc used to be a shark in the media pond and is now a sardine in the media ocean. it's also becoming slightly smaller in absolute terms because it's got less money in the short term. less money, fewer people and reduction in money has to go further in that it has to reach people digitally and that is what today is about. it's quite an ambitious bunch of proposals, albeit a continuation of an attempt to shift to digital, which we've seen for a few years. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren. we are keeping this run of brisk, westerly wins today. 21 degrees. chilly in northern scotland we are seeing some sunshine and showers and this is the area we will all get into tomorrow. in northern england and north wales we have had cloud and drizzle and that is moving southwards. this is weakening as it runs southwards and it is petering out and what is left of the cloud will get blown away into the english channel. heading into friday, some every shower is an blustery when. 12 showers in southern scotland, northern ireland, northern england. quite sunny as well. the wins are lighter here and it will feel quite warm. top temperature in the south—east of around 21 celsius. over the weekend, though, things will cool down. northerly wind which will cool down. northerly wind which will build a cloud on sunday and could bring one or two showers. hello. this is bbc news. i'm geeta guru—murthy. these are the headlines. the government announces a £15 billion package in the face of the rising cost of living with all households to receive a £a00 discount on energy bills. millions of the most vulnerable —

against mikael ymer as he bids to make it through to the third round at roland garros for the first time in his career. meanwhile there's already been a shock today in the women's draw. last year's wimbledon finalist karolina pliskova has gone down in straight sets to the world number 227. france's leolia jeanjean dispatching the 8th seed 6—2, 6—2. afterwards, pliskova admitted it was a difficult day at the office, but didn't want to take anything away from her wildcard opponent. i think the score is a bit too brutal, i would say, because i think i could have played a bit different some points and had many more games. but serve wasn't working, i think overall i don't have a horrible feeling but of course i'm not happy about it. ijust want feeling but of course i'm not happy about it. i just want to feeling but of course i'm not happy about it. ijust want to give credit to her, she played a great match. elsewhere, daniil medvedev crusied through to round three with a

roma is here, imagine someone calls you and offers to drive your car directly to the house, but for a certain fee , scammers are crooks. scoundrels listening to roma i'm completely lost, i need a map. here she is impound, now i’m on the right, then i understood right away all the time, i parked in the wrong place for 5 minutes and the car was evacuated. now i'm going to help out, but the story is not about that. called scammers. they wanted to run a new scheme of deception on me. they, therefore, from somewhere will find out exactly the phones of people whose cars were evacuated, not one of them dialed and says, i am an employee of the evacuation service. we have a new service for 1.000 rubles. you can return the car to the address that you specify, you only need to pay a fine to evacuate and to prove that you are the owner of the car, for this you had to have a photo in the tcp and a registration certificate. i guessed so. this is quite a profitable fine and i have to pay for parking anyway. but you don't have to waste time. in general, friends. i am such an experienced person, but i almost got caught, only natural caution went. i asked the scammer to send a photo of my car. to check if he really works in the evacuation service, and of course, the criminal immediately hung up. here's a story, and i think i've come, be careful. in general, do not park, i got good luck. romaol, and maria survana is now experimenting a little with the casserole, as a result, an unusual quick and satisfying dish has turned out. we are preparing scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast in the city. and today, according to the plan , i will first fry the country casserole for her. there is bread in the country. no toaster, you can use the frying pan spread, 6 toasts. on a baking sheet top with slices of cheese and ham and, of course, greens. i cut off the sorrel, soak the roots so that all the sand is gone and rinse under running water, dry with a paper towel and spread on a baking sheet. and now, with the help of a glass , i make a hole in the bread with the help of a glass and put it into molds on a baking sheet, i drive an egg into each, it remains to make bechamel sauce, it is in it that the secret of the taste of milk is added . pull out in another in a saucepan, melt the butter, add flour and fry for 2 minutes over low heat , pour hot milk in a thin stream and stir until

roma at the stadico 0limpico, that's 2—1 on aggregate. former chelsea striker tammy abraham scoring the only goal of the game. roma will face feyenoord in the competition's final in albania. the players and everyone, it's been a greatjourney for us this last couple of seasons in europe. the players will learn and gain a lot of experience from it. nights like tonight, which was a great atmosphere, will stay with them and then give them that motivation going forward. andy murray will have to wait for his chance to play the world number one novak djokovic for the first time in five years after he had to pull out of the third round of the madrid 0pen because of illness. british number one cameron norrie is also out — he lost in three sets in the last 16 to spanish teenage sensation carlos alcaraz. the 19—year—old will face compatriot — and his idol — rafael nadal in the next round. it was a bad day for the british number two dan evans, who was beaten in straight sets by andrey rublev. evans had his opportunities but failed to capitalise, and world number eight rublev will face stefanos tsitsipas in the quarter—final. what a shame for andy murray, he was pretty excited about playing novak djokovic. hopefully in the next few weeks, the french open or wimbledon. back to rangers, just an incredible performance in europe, taking it by storm. they really have been the story. there is every reason to think they can now go and win the first european trophy in 50 years, especially against german sides with their record. beating the likes along the way, the giants of borussia dortmund, so a real belief and the tactics of giovanni van bronckhorst have been a big help and so, too, the atmosphere we saw at ibrox, hide to rival that. let's bring you the weather for today and the weekend.- let's bring you the weather for today and the weekend. thank you very much- — today and the weekend. thank you very much. good _ today and the weekend. thank you very much. good morning. -

across england — the conservative lose seats including the key london boroughs of wandsworth and westminster to labour, the liberal democrats say they're picking up support. counting is getting underway for the local elections in scotland and wales, while in northern ireland voters have been having their say over forming a new government. mccoll�*s on the brink of collapse — the convenience

rain at some point today, in some southern gardens it will stay dry yet again. the best of the sunshine and the highest temperatures here. details coming up. good morning. it's friday, may 6th. our main story. counting has begun across england following yesterday's local elections. ballot boxes are being opened in northern ireland after assembly elections. the results will be seen as a significant test for the government after weeks of rows about lockdown parties and the rising cost of living. elections have taken place in 146 local authority areas — with more than 4,000 seats up for grabs. in just over half of those council areas, counting has already begun. here is the state of the parties so far. our latest figures show the conservatives have lost 121 council seats. labour has gained 38 seats and the key conservative councils of wandsworth, westminster and barnet. meanwhile, the lib dems have gained 57 seats, and the greens are up 23. our political correspondent helen catt has the story so far. a symbolic win for labour. one is worth in south london, tory 441i worth in south london, tory 441; years, until now. even in an election about local services, having the lowest council tax in the country didn't keep it blue. the cost of living crisis did come up, as did the massive cuts from the government since 2010. and also, boris johnson. borisjohnson was a vote winner for labour, as indeed was keir starmer as well. i remind you, in 1998, a year after our landslide victory, we didn't win the seat in wandsworth. in 2002, after our landslide victory in 2001, and we didn't win the seat in wandsworth. we have done it in 2022. wandsworth's former leader blamed the loss on the cost of living and said the issue of borisjohnson was raised. that was echoed by tory councillors elsewhere. it is partygate. it is notjust partygate. there is the integrity issue. basically, ijust don't feel people any longer have the confidence that their prime minister can be relied upon to tell the truth. the conservatives lost barnet in north london, westminster, west oxfordshire and southampton. although others maintain things are not as bad as they could be. we have had some difficult results, you can _ we have had some difficult results, you can see — we have had some difficult results, you can see that in london. it is midterm~ — you can see that in london. it

have actually made gains. if you take the — have actually made gains. if you take the whole picture of this, doesn't — take the whole picture of this, doesn't demonstrate labour has the momentum to form the next government. labour has talked of making progress from the general election in 2019. it won the newly created cumberland council in the north—west, but it's not expecting big gains, and it's had losses too. the liberal democrats, who have had a strong night, took hull council. what was really interesting about last night's results, in places like wimbledon, cheadle and elsewhere, we were winning seats where we need to win seats at the next general election. it was a great night for those cancers. —— councillors. the greens too have made gains. overnight in bristol voters chose to scrap their mayor in a referendum. this is only a partial picture. almost half of england's councils have yet to start counting, and will do so later today. so will all of the councils in wales and scotland. counting will start for more than 90 seats for the northern ireland assembly, with about suggesting sinn fein could become the largest party for the first time. let's get an overall view now from our political editor, laura kuenssberg. good morning. i know you have watched all night as all these results have come in. you have wise words for us this morning as you can paint a picture of

to a family. you know, we're a very private family, very close family. but we were all on the same page about wanting to tell our story in a very authentic, non—sensationalised way, and just to show people that they're not alone, you know. it's a complex thing, because i miss my brother. he was my best friend and my twin. and i don't miss the alcoholic. this is the sitting room, where rupert slept. my day would start, i would come in. i mean, check if he was all right. i'd normally have to clear up some sort of mess. so either, like, he was sick, he would normally have peed on the sofa. when did you start to feel that things were going wrong for your brother? the last three years, it just seemed to get worse and worse, you know? and by the end, i was his carer. i was clearing up sick, urine, faeces, you know, then going out, you know. this is in your house? this is in my house. and plus, i'm then trying to navigate a national health system which is woefully underfunded. three days before he died, he was brought in to the hospital, threatening to jump off westminster bridge. and he wasn't even seen by an assistant psychiatrist. and he left and he killed himself. and that — i've heard this story so many times. feeling suicidal is not deemed strong enough to be sectioned. it seems extraordinary to me, you know. i've been suicidal, by the way, in the past, and i've spoken about that when i haven't been well. and luckily, i wasjust about in my right mind. but there were two times when i was very worried and i had the samaritans on speed dial, and they were there for me. how close do you think you came? not that close, but luckily, i'd done enough work then and i knew the symptom of what suicidal ideation is. with rupert, you know, over 20 suicide attempts, if not more, and yet never could i get him sectioned in 20 years. i really have never spoken about this before. and i'd like to speak about things. but it wasn't my story to tell. but now it is. how difficult was it for you to have your brother living with you in your house? it was for four years from 2016, wasn't it? yeah, it was, it was difficult. and it's amazing what we do out of love for people, you know? and ijust didn't want my brother to die. so that was my decision. in the end that, you know, i didn't manage to keep him alive. and that's part of my grief process. there's only so much i can do for someone. any of us can do for anyone. i remember scuffles, fighting with him in the kitchen, in my house, you know, wrestling a knife away, calling the police. still to this day, if the phone rings late at night, my heart sinks to my boots, because it always presaged some form of crisis, threat, or the police. the last time you saw your brother, you hit him? yes. what was going on? i elbowed him. what was happening? he deserved it. well, because he was, you know, he was... i was so angry. and... and i rememberthinking, oh, gosh, if this is the last time, you know, i don't want this to be some sort of film moment when i regret it. and luckily, i've done enough therapy to be strong enough to go, this won't be my lasting memory of my brother. you know, the lasting memory, in fact, the whole film in a way, is an amazing sort of legacy for rupert, because it really shows who he was. the most extraordinary man, you know, who struggled a lot of the time, and still did extraordinary things. # happy birthday, dear william and rupert. # happy birthday to you.# all loss is unique. but for someone who finds themselves in a situation similar to yours, what would you say? i remember years ago a friend of mine, he lost his mum. and i said... i don't know why i was having such a poetic moment, but i said, "grief is like water. it will always find its way out through the rocks." and it will. but it's a thing that one has to sit with, you know, and trust that it will it will find its way out. there is no set way to grieve. it's really important to talk about these things. and that's why i've done this documentary, and want to do more and other things. it's really important. get rid of the shame. a very, very thoughtful interview. full of respect for willie young for speaking so openly. it will make a big difference to a lot of people. if you are affected by any of the issues raised in that interview, the bbc line home page has the contact details for a wide range of organisations that can offer all sorts of help and support. stand sorts of help and support. and willie young's _ sorts of help and support. fific willie young's documentaries on channel 4 at 10p and on tuesday, may ten. time for the local news. good morning, i'm asad ahmad. the big local election headlines are all in london. alongside barnet, labour have taken control of wandsworth for the first time in over a0 years and — for the first time ever — westminster council, too. here's our political correspondent karl mercer. we now have three labour mps and a labour council! cheering. first they took wandsworth. .. then came barnet. and then the shock of the night, labour took westminster council, completing a hat—trick of historic wins. london's mayor sadiq khan was in wandsworth as the celebrations began. councillors, whey—hey! you're my mum's councillor, yeah? no pressure! it's for borisjohnson to decide how he feels being the first leader in a generation to have lost this seat — margaret thatcher's favourite council. and when you speak to people on the doorsteps, as i have been doing in wandsworth for the last few days and weeks, the three big things that came up was the cost—of—living crisis, was the cuts they were feeling from the government, but borisjohnson came up. labour have never run barnet council — the beaten tory leader blaming national problems. partygate came up, um, very occasionally throughout the campaign. not all the time. and there were some weeks when partygate went quiet and nobody was bringing it up but when it came up again, when there was a new revelation or a fine or something like that, people would bring it up on the doorstep and it really was an issue, i think, that impacted us. and some conservative watchers have warned these defeats in london need to be addressed by the party. if they lose their flagship councils, then they risk losing even more seats, and their seat count is already well down on where it was even in 2010. i think the conservative party does need to not... it can't afford to just write that off and say, "well, london is a labour city." it needs to have a real reckoning with why this party — this party of government — is so unappealing to sort of eight million voters in this country's capital. it looks like labour could now run more councils than it has ever done in london. karl mercer, bbc london. and in the past few minutes, labour leader sir keir starmer arrived in barnet to celebrate his party's success there. cheering. the borough has long been a labour target. and earlier this morning the conservative leader said the loss to labour didn't bode well for the tories in future general elections. onto the weather now with kate. good morning. it's a bright start this morning, plenty of warm sunshine around. through the afternoon, though, we've got a cold front sinking south, and that's going to introduce more cloud. staying dry, still some bright and sunny spells in the far southeast, and temperatures reaching a warm 22 celsius. overnight, that cloud continues to move across. a spell of mainly light rain clearing by saturday morning. a cloudy day on the whole for saturday, the chance of a spot of rain, maybe one or two brighter spells, and temperatures staying in the high teens. there's more on the local election results in london — and reaction, too — on our website. i'll have an update in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and victoria derbyshire. bringing you right up to date with the local elections. the conservatives have suffered a number of losses in the local elections in england — particularly councils in london. outside the capital, it's been a mixed picture so far. let's get an update on what we know. newsnight�*s lewis goodall is in our london newsroom to explain all. let's recap where we are. the conservatives are doing very badly in london. we have spoken about wandsworth, conservative since 1978, westminster conservative since harold wilson was prime minister in 1964. the rest of the country, we talk about whether conservatives are continuing to advance, places like the amber valley, going forward, nuneaton, concept is going forward. then you try to extrapolate and sift through the results of what they mean in terms of other parts of the country and it becomes complicated because there are lots of other parts of the country where there is a stasis. diabetes, very important seat, used to be labour, went to no overall control —— derby is a very important seat. as you can see, it is nip and tuck, 18, i6, neighbour or a bit, conservatives down a bit, not too bad perhaps, but then you look at somewhere like bolton, we will expect the labour party to make gains. tim macrow crucial parliamentary marginal seats. again, stasis. conservatives won, independent dam one. he would help somewhere like that if you are in the labour party would be doing better. you look somewhere like worcester, another conservative loss. a very historic place in political mythology, that will stick woman. the greens are up one, the lib dems are up one. should not neglect that story, we'll talk a lot more about the lib dems. counties like somerset coming back with the liberal democrats are hoping to do well, the green party have not had a bad night, about 23 games, or about 12% in bad night, about 23 games, or about i2% in comparison to 2018. it is a nip and tuck affair, we are going back to the status quo in lots of places in 2018, one seat, one seat down and back in 2018 the labour party conservative party wear in an uneasy stasis and we could be looking to return in many parts of the country to that sort of affair where neither party is really able to predominates over the other. the labour party would say, going back to 2018, that is an improvement on where they were in 2019 and in 2021 but it is notjust england we are expecting results. people ask why we are talking aboutjust england it is because the delicate england is the only place to have counted overnight. we are expecting lots of results from scotland later today. what will happen in scotland? probably a battle for second place in scotland, the snp are likely to continue to dominate north of adrian sporle, back in 2007, the first time the snp entered government in holyrood and won the local elections, they have maintained first place and might even build. it's only for a party that has been in government since 2007,15 years, but there we are. look out for councils like glasgow, the snp looking to increase their gains there. for questions about who comes in second. in 2017 ruth davidson, leading the conservatives at that time, did very well. the conservatives from labour to come in second place. most of the scottish conservatives do not anticipate doing that well this time and the labour party are hoping to regain second place but it is a long way from the hegemony that the labour party used to enjoy in scotland. wales, the one place in the uk where the labour party continues to dominate. certainly in the welsh senedd. hoping to continue that run and to do well in seats like bridgend, the seats they lost in 2019 and i hoping to regain the next parliamentary elections when the conservatives won six seats in wales in 2019. six agains. the most important result of all, most consequential results of this election is what will happen in northern ireland. the store executive. the big headline that could come from that, sinn fein, the nationalist party, overtaking the unionist party, the dup come into first place. almost happened in 2017, nip and tuck, but the dupjust on top and the reason that is important is it will be the first time in the 100 year history of the province that the nationalist party had won the pole, got the most seats in an election, had come top in an election and that could have really big political repercussions for the whole of the way that the northern ireland executive unfolds over the coming years. a really tense situation with the northern ireland protocol. we expect these results over the next two days but it will certainly be extremely consequential and worth looking out for. thank ou. it and worth looking out for. thank yom it really _ and worth looking out for. thank you. it really is _ and worth looking out for. thank

are three cancer centres across northern ireland. the ballot boxes are being opened here although we hear there may be a delay at one of those other counting centres but results are not expected until lunchtime they could take well into the evening, perhaps into the early hours of tomorrow morning, to get the full picture of the state of each other parties right across northern ireland, and then to work out what that means in terms of representation at stormont. it will be the biggest party. proportional representation voting system that is used to allocate seats across the various constituencies across northern ireland to decipher who gets what the seats in the stormont assembly. it takes a bit of time to work out, quite a complicated system but the big thing to watch out for is whether the dup is able to cling on to its position, pulling across northern ireland, last few months has suggested the party will suffer significant losses and it could indeed lose the position of the biggest party to sinn fein. there is a question about whether power—sharing government will resume here. there hasn't been a government here. there hasn't been a government here since february when the dup withdrew from power—sharing in objection to the way the northern ireland protocol was hitting trade in northern ireland. they said they want to see a change in the protocol before they got back into power—sharing and if sinn fein is the in spite of there is a huge question about whether they would share power. some major questions to be determined in northern ireland as a result of this election but we won't get the results into this afternoon or evening and maybe into it tomorrow morning. find afternoon or evening and maybe into it tomorrow morning.— it tomorrow morning. and will it lead to another— it tomorrow morning. and will it lead to another government? i it tomorrow morning. and will it - lead to another government? thank you, dan. let's get a sense of the

at 9am. the ballot boxes behind me, that is when they will be tipped out, brought to the counting stations, it is an electronic account in scotland, a form of proportional representation, single transferable votes. they will start getting tallied in these machines which look a bit like printers that will get under way at 9am. 1200 seats across scotland and 32 local authorities, 85 of those in glasgow, the magic number here is 43, which will be very high for any party to reach. at the last local election the snp got 39, they took control of glasgow, a big result for them here. the themes to look for are, how it will be snp do? they are likely to retain their position as the largest party here in scotland, that is not really in doubt. they have won the most seats in the last ten scottish elections. the big thing to look for here in scotland is the battle for second place. the conservatives had a huge result at the last scottish local elections, doubling their vote. will they hold onto that second—place position or it will partygate second—place position or it will pa rtygate affect second—place position or it will partygate affect them, will labour bounce back? the first results were in around lunchtime, we should get all the results here in scotland probably by the time.- all the results here in scotland probably by the time. i feel like we need to speak to say john curtis. professor of politics at strathclyde university. good morning. you have had a very long night. can you give us your glimpse as to what you think the picture in making this morning is? the big question going into these elections was, would they be so bad for the conservatives if conservative mps decided to mount a challenge against the prime minister? the evidence on ballot boxes so far, around only half the councils in england, is that certainly the concern confirms the opinion polls that the party is probably less popular than it has been at any point since the december 2019 general election, but a loss of four point since 2018, six since last year, substantial but doesn't sound devastating. because the conservatives were not defending a great deal, we were primarily having elections in the more labour parts of england, the loss in terms of numbers of seats at least, around 120, doesn't sound that's great. that said, it is one in five of conservative seats that have so far fallen, and within london, where labour have performed rather better than they have outside of london, we have not only seen wandsworth and barnet fall, is widely expected, but also seen a labour pick up westminster, which always looked the more difficult task, and it underlines the way in which london has become almost a one—party city. i think the conservatives will be left with control of just four of the capital's 32 borras after all the capital's 32 borras after all the ballots have been counted. irate the ballots have been counted. we were watching sir keir starmer a few minutes ago in barnet, in celebration mode. i think people are going to have to hear this word quite a lot over the next few days. turning point. when he is using. you look at the figures, you look at what happened before, what justification is there for a sir keir starmer and labour to be talking about the turning point? well, the labour party can certainly rightly claim to have done an awful lot better than last year, their vote is up by five or six points. across england as a whole. but we have to remember they did so, so badly last year. a really disappointing result for labour. in london, the party certainly has made progress on what it achieved in 2018. it has done better and achieved a better result thanjeremy corbyn managed to achieve as a leader. perhaps a turning point is code for leaving behind the party's party. in london arguably that case can be made. the trouble is that outside of london, the labour vote is a bit lower than in 2018, hasn't done quite as well asjeremy corbyn did, and so far labour has made a slight net loss of the seats outside of london. labour needs to do well in london to win an election but doing well in london will not be sufficient and there is very little sign of the labour party making particular progress in some of those leave inclined places, traditional labour places in the north of england and the midlands and that certainly is the target that labour has long been setting itself. it's target has not been to paint london even more credit than it is already, but to try to reclaim the ground it has been losing further north —— paint london even more red and it is already quite the lib dems party can justifiably beat making a few claims this morning to success. one has to say that probably that was the surprise of the night or perhaps the trend we all failed to spotin perhaps the trend we all failed to spot in advance. the party has made more gains than labour has, about 40, 50 gains. it is not up dramatically, a couple of points compared with what it was four years ago, bit of progress compared with last year. but i think what the party will be particularly noting is it intended to do rather well when it intended to do rather well when it was fighting the conservatives for second place. the lib dem chances of making some progress in the next general election rested very heavily on taking tory held seats where the lib dems currently are in second place. encourage that perhaps they might be in the sort of position to do that. for the liberal democrats, obtaining point submit to strong, possible foundation ——

usa, where a german website says there is no stadium like ibrox. a corrugated iron box of british football, a whole stadium sang for 90 minutes, it was shaking. their opponents' immediate pain tribute. —— out their opponents' media paying tribute. what a moment for the current rangers team, who now have a chance to win their first european trophy in 50 years. their dream run in the europa league continued as they beat rb leipzig 3—1 at ibrox. they'll meet another german side, in the final, eintract frankfurt, who beat west ham 1—0, in the other semifinal. leicester city saw their european adventure come to an end, asjoe wilson reports. fireworks in frankfurt, british teams everywhere, three european semifinals, two different competitions. one deep breath. right, first to glasgow, to rangers... they began this match against leipzig 1—0 down after the first leg. they began with inspiration, with their captain... commentator: james tavernier! whatever expectations ibrox possessed, they were exceeded. glen kamara kept his composure, which meant that fans could lose theirs — joy. rangers led. but with 20 minutes left to play, leipzig responded — it was all equal. rangers persevered, just like they've done throughout this competition. john lundstram's winning goal, a night to rival any, and a european final to look forward to. in frankfurt, west ham lost a defender to a red card in the 19th minute and conceded a goal soon after. that left them two behind in their europa league semifinal. there were no more goals, but after tempers frayed on the touchline, west ham's manager david moyes was sent off and his team went out. the europa conference league meant little to leicester city until they began to excel in it. now a semifinal, soon this... commentator: fabulous goal! that was tammy abraham, the englishman reborn in romafast. their plans for a dream home were shattered in the cruellest of ways. it's going to be an emotional journey for us all. i know what it's like to - have the rug pulled from under you very unexpectedly. so i want to keep it simple and just for this house to wrap its arms - back round her again. we'll do all we
