grenfell tower is the catalyst. nfell tower one way or the other but i think grenfell tower has put things into the spotlight. i tell you what has come to mind is that if residents are not flagging up these things they have flagged the past and have not been followed up, it feels like it is up to them to push councils like yours to check on safety and without that, these checks would not ta ke without that, these checks would not take place. is that fair? we took the decision after grenfell tower, we have 174 sour —— tower blocks in southwark and we have made the highest level of fire risk assessment. for residents in southwark, i want to reassure them, we are working to make sure residents are we are working to make sure residents a re safe we are working to make sure residents are safe as possible. thank you very much for your time. sarah is bringing us the weather. she has the bristol international balloon festival. has something blown up behind you? good morning. we have a window of fine weather in bristol for t

tom symonds, bbc news, at grenfell tower. a new constituent assembly despite widespread opposition at home and abroad. well let's stay with that story — for more i've been speaking to journalist cody weddle, who's in the capital caracas. i asked him if he expected the protests to continue. the day after the election for this assembly, there was also a protest. crowds were certainly subdued. today, there were thousands of people in the streets. another problem for the opposition will be that they currently had some divisions within their opposition coalition. there are some parts of the coalition that want to continue ahead with elections, there are other parts of the opposition that wa nt to other parts of the opposition that want to boycott any election. they say the recent elections were fraudulent. those internal divisions could also a turnout at these protests. president nicolas maduro says this is to bring peace and stability, that is why he wants this new assembly. our people there buying that? i don't think so. -- are.
