kirsty says i think this is sensible. go back to school. alan says anyone on furlough refusing to send children to school should have their furlough sent immediately. why should the tax smack taxpayers keep funding them? thank you for those. we will be speaking to a head teacher later. are they puppies? good morning. i think they are. good morning, everybody. look at this blue sky. justified. many of us starting off ona justified. many of us starting off on a white note, either with blue skies or indeed a fair bit of cloud around. we will see some rain later. i pressure is stilljust clinging on. weather fronts coming i pressure is stilljust clinging on. weatherfronts coming in on i pressure is stilljust clinging on. weather fronts coming in on the north—west. rain and strengthening winds through the day. showers from berkshire. often large amounts of cloud. cloud through northern england, down through the midlands and central and southern england. cloud of northern ireland in western scotla nd cloud of northern ireland in

wales education minister kirsty williams outlining the proposal for all schools in wales to start theirecision by the welsh government and how it adheres to the five principles set out earlier in the pandemic, and he says there is little or no... says members will be told that they do not have to return to working in schools if they feel the risk is too great to do so. much more on the latest developments, but the news on one with simon, the latest on the aftermath of the death of george floyd in the united states, and of course the latest development on covid—19. right now, and weather update from louise mia. good afternoon. change of month, change of the weather. what a difference a day makes. let us take a look at tuesday. there was some cloud in scotla nd tuesday. there was some cloud in scotland but the majority had blue sky and sunshine, the heat was the dominant feature. the cloud has pushed south today, some brighter skies but gusty winds and underneath the cloud, we have some rain. welcome rain, yes, but it is pushing south and east, and it is going to weaken. with a change of

kirsty blackman.death of george floyd was absolutely appalling. as for the equalities, —— qualities of mr trump, he is president of the us, which is our most important ally in the world today, and whatever people may say about it, the united states isa may say about it, the united states is a bastion of peace and freedom, and has been for most of my lifetime. so peter bottomley. mr speaker, i hope you will allow me to welcome the birthday of the prime minister of england, the 2007, with words that we can share the glory struggles, joys and pains of this country. it was a critical advisor to the stephen lawrence enquiry. if an clay—macro in eight years there are eight interrogations of a bishop, we have got more to learn about making the colour of someone‘s skin as important as the colour of someone‘s eyes or hair, grow well, i join him warmly in paying tribute to the archbishop of york as he lays down his crazier, he and i correspond very often.” down his crazier, he and i correspond very often. i tak

i applaud kirsty williams, the cabinet secretary there, of having that sense of ambition and starting couldn't do that, but having some experience ready for september when they hopefully get back to some kind of normality. as you know, some conservatives blame a lack of collegiate working from trades unions for wire schools couldn't fully go back in england. yes, i've heard that, and i think it's a shame we have had that kind of caricature. i lead a trade union and trade unions have a proud tradition of doing two things, one is to look after and protect their members, but also to speak on behalf of children and on behalf of communities. we have tried to be eminently constructive about that. the approach in wales was one we have been saying right from the beginning. why did you sate is more important that child in in year six or year run should be in school rather than the parent of a child in year two three, four, five? those pa rents would year two three, four, five? those parents would say my child is important too. it is a reasonable discussion. we have seen a different approach in

meanwhile, speaking at news conference in the past hour the education minister kirsty williams said she returning to school in september. i'm not ruling anything out. what i am definitely ruling in is that we will work really hard to minimise the ongoing disruption to children and young people's education by the pandemic, and we will need to plan for a variety of scenarios too, as i said, increase facetime as much as possible, but we will continue to be guided by the science in that regard, whether that be regards to social distancing, or whether that will be regard to any potential risks that having all children back as normal may make for our ability to manage the disease but i'm certainly not ruling anything out at this stage. i want to reassure eve ryo ne this stage. i want to reassure everyone in wales that we will be working hard to maximise the opportunity for children to be in school and minimise the ongoing disruption to individuals‘s education as a result of the pandemic. updated guidance has been published on how hotels, pubs and other businesses in northern ireland can reope
