Calls to postpone or move the Brazil Olympics due | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
to the threat of the Zika virus have been rejected by the World | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
It's said there is no need for a delay despite more | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
than 100 medical experts warning that the Games - | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
which start in just 10 weeks - may accelerate the spread | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
of the disease to other countries and increase the risk | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
of transmission to the 500,000 competitors and tourists | :00:43. | :00:44. | |

Our correspondent Will Ross reports. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
In less than ten weeks, the Olympic Games are due to be | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
A huge amount of work goes into hosting the Olympic Games as the | :00:56. | :01:05. | |
organisers scramble to get everything ready, they are also | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
fighting a major public health emergency, spread by mosquitos. Tens | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
of thousands of cases of the Zika virus, linked to severe birth | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
defects. Now 150 scientists and experts, say it would be unethical | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
for the Games to go ahead. There could be a risk of the virus | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
accelerating. Half a million visitors are expected | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
in August. It is not people coming from the UK | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
or the Netherlands but people coming from low income countries where | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
malaria is endemic, so India, south Asia, South Africa, where there is | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
malaria and a chance of it becoming endemic and a much more serious | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
problem. There is no known vaccine or cure | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
for Zika, those most people who get it have mild stomas, it is suspected | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
of leading to thousands of babies born with underdevery well.ed | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
brains. In a letter with regards the vaccine, it has said it has failed. | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
The World Health Organisation says it is bound to spread but no need to | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
change the date or the venue of the Olympics. | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
Based on a careful risk assessment and all of the information gathered | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
about the disease, the games should go ahead as planned and we should | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
continue to work to ensure that they are as safe as possible. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
The Olympic torch is making its way to Rio, and billions have been spent | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
on construction and commercial rights. After political turmoil, | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
this is another blow for Brazil. But it seems unlikely that the Games | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
will be halted at this late stage. Russia has said that | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
eight of its athletes, who competed at the London Olympics, | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
are among those who have tested Yesterday the International Olympic | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
Committee revealed that 23 competitors from six countries had | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
failed new tests, after samples which they gave at the time of | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
the London Games were re-assessed. Young people are being urged | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
to register to vote in next month's The former Labour leader Ed Miliband | :03:11. | :03:18. | |

immigration and economy - in a move described as cynical | :03:33. | :03:34. | |
by the Vote Leave Campaign. Our Political Correspondent | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
Eleanor Garnier has more. There is about 100 vote Leave | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
supporters inside a big event to rally support. Despite criticism, | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
they've been using the leading figures, campaigners were pretty | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
upbeat when knocking on doors in Maidstone earlier today. | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
There is another lady there. Step by step. Vote by vote. They know every | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
single new supporter will count. So in Maidstone today, they brought out | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
the big names. Chatting, convincing, trying to change minds. | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
Immigration and the pressure it puts on public services, has been central | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
to the vote Leave campaign. But with four weeks until the vote, they are | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
hitting back at accusations that they have lost the economic | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
argument, claiming it is the Remain camp, not their side, using | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
misleading figures. Their forecasts have been | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
questioned. We are making a positive economic case as to why we should | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
leave the European Union, which of course means we can take back | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
control of the money we send to Europe. | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
But in London at an event for young voters, the former Labour leader, Ed | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
Miliband said that the British economy would be safer inside the | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
EU. Think about what happens if we lose | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
the referendum, lost jobs, lost opportunities. I believe a whole | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
generation losing out. Now the reason that the Remain side | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
are keen to get youngsters registered is it is thought they are | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
more likely to remain to stay in the European Union. Vote Leave | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
campaigners have said that Ed Miliband's attempt to appeal to the | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
young people was a cynical move to fool no-one. So both sides doing all | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
that they can to get every single vote out as they count down the days | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
to the referendum. More than a quarter of children | :05:27. | :05:30. | |

British and German sailors died in the largest naval battle | :07:00. | :07:11. | |
of the First World War, It took place in the North Sea off | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
the coast of Denmark and today wreaths were laid at a service | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
in Rosyth in Fife to commemorate Guards, shoulder, arms! A century | :07:19. | :07:31. | |
on, a ceremony to remember a 36-hour battle that left so many dead. | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
We come together today in remembrance and thanks giving to | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
honour all Naval personnel who served in the battle of Jutland. | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
On the 31st of May, 1916 and June 1st, 14 British and 11 German ships | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
were sunk and more than 6,000 British servicemen killed. The | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
battle pitted the two most powerful Naval forces of their time against | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
one another. It weakened the German Navy and changed the course of the | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
war. Relatives of those who fought and | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
died came to remember their sacrifice. Among them was a woman | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
whose father survived but whose uncle, 16 at the time, as killed at | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
the battle. I think it is very important to | :08:21. | :08:30. | |
commemorate. Always the tradition of commemoration and the rituals of | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
commemoration are important. They are healing. | :08:35. | :08:44. | |
A series of commemorations are to culminate on Tuesday, 100 years | :08:45. | :08:49. | |

Exeter had fought back to get within three points of their | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
opponents in the closing stages, but a late Saracens try | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
The biggest game in English rugby, the Saracens wanting to add the | :09:04. | :09:16. | |
Premiership trophy to their cabinet, alongside the European Cup. The | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
Chiefs, played at Twickenham before but not in a match this big. The | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
Saracens are used to performing on stage, that showed. Two tries, and | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
Duncan Taylor and Chris Whiles gave them control. 17 points up. Exeter | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
regrouped and grappled back into contention. Jack Yendell with a try | :09:37. | :09:44. | |
to give them hope. The Chiefs have been in the Premiership for six | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
years but showed that they could stay at the level. Jack Knowell, | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
getting a second try. Saracens proved that they are the | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
irresistible force in Northern Hemisphere rugby. | :10:01. | :10:06. |
