Downing Street is to hold a session of its emergency committee, COBRA,

in response to the global cyber attack which has disabled NHS

The Home Secretary Amber Rudd said 45 organisations

It's not yet clear the extent to which patient safety has

agency, Europol, described the cyber attack -

which has struck in about 100 countries -

A major incident cleared at this hospital to ensure patient safety.

Saint Bartholomew is is part of the largest NHS Trust in England. Some

ambulances are being diverted to neighbouring hospitals and there

will be no outpatient treatment today. I was worried. The computers

being down and somebody asking for money, I've got to stay in here and

it was a bit frustrating. It is after this message came up on

countless computers across the NHS demanding an -- a ransom to access

files. They had a severe tummy pain for ten days, the patient I saw, we

needed to find out why he was in pain, we could not find out because

we could not get the blood results. It is part of a global situation,

cyber attacks are at an unprecedented level according to the

EU's law-enforcement agency. Organisations in 100 countries have

been hit. 45 NHS organisations have been affected including 11 of

Scotland's health boards. There is a great deal of work ongoing to get

the system back to normal. Everything is being done to ensure

it is kept to an absolute minimum disruption. The system locks

computers before demanding money. The NHS is particularly vulnerable

because of the ageing IT systems. They have been asked to move from

Windows XP. People don't always move as quickly as you would like. There

will be lessons to be learned from this example. Experts say it is

vital technology is up-to-date. This is like making sure that you lock

the doors and windows before you go to bed. It won't stop the burglars,

necessarily, but will keep most of them out. The government does not

believe patient data has been stolen, there will be a meeting of

the emergency committee this afternoon.

The former Labour Prime Minister Gordon Brown is calling on voters

to elect Labour candidates that will hold Theresa May to account -

His comments follow a warning - from Labour's Deputy

Leader Tom Watson - that the Conservatives would win

a 'Margaret Thatcher style landslide'

Our Political Correspondent Leila Nathoo joins me.

What is surprising is he is not suggesting it for a Labour

government but for a different cause. This is Gordon Brown's second

intervention. He delivered a speech with much the same message saying

that the May is asking for a blank cheque from voters and he says they

need to back Labour to speak up for things like the NHS, social justice,

better education. He did not mention anything about a future Labour

government. The references were to the ones in the past. Labour's

deputy leader has given an interview to the Guardian. He said if there is

no dent in the Tory lead then Theresa May could be on for a

majority of more than 100 MPs. Tom Watson says there are exciting

ideas. There is an undertone that we will be in opposition but we should

make it a strong opposition. Jeremy Corbyn says it is not a foregone

conclusion but there are different ones from other MPs.

Meanwhile the Conservatives say they want to give people the power

to demand social media companies delete any embarrassing content,

But critics have questioned whether the legislation

is enforceable, since many of the big social media

Using the shower rather than the bath - and stopping

the use of garden sprinklers - are among ideas being suggested.

The Eurovision Song Contest final is being held in Ukraine this

Lucie Jones will be representing the UK, performing her ballad

Our Moscow Correspondent, Steve Rosenberg, is in Kiev,

and has been to meet some of the contestants.

It's Eurovision 2017, and it's all rather confusing.

The audience is not understanding it.

I am leaving the whole meaning to them.

And what is going on with one of the favourites,

"The monkey," Francesco Gabbani tells me, "is a symbol that

at the end of the day we are all naked apes."

Among the frontrunners are Bulgaria and

But could this be the year that Britain is back?

At rehearsals, Lucie Jones has been impressing

everybody with her power ballad, Never Give Up On You.

I am hoping that I will go home with the respect

of the nation that watched the show at home.

Ladies and it's live City are aiming for

dream of captaining your side. Ever since I've join this club it has

been about trying to win the FA Cup and we are one step closer to doing

that. Definitely up there with the stuff I've achieved so far. It is

exciting for us. This is the third year it has been at Wembley. We want

to put on a great performance. We are not just going there to be

another team in the FA Cup final. We want to win. We want to showcase

what we are about as a team. We are a footballing team. We show grit and

determination as well. We cannot wait.

Not only that, they're hoping to complete a double double,

Hats off to Saracens, champions of England. European champions. They

produced a magnificent performance. They thrive on being different. It

has helped make them the most successful trophy hunters. You look

forward to semifinals and finals. You have that connection together

that will get you through. Ashton has experience of such moments. His

England days are now over but he is one swan dive away from being the

record try scorer. Last year nobody got over the line in the final but

this was Farrell's final. Metronomic yet magic, Man of the Match at the

last final and back to dominate this one. He and his team became

Premiership champions after that but now the double could be doubled.

Such speculation is banned. We need to make sure we get to a place where

we want to be. Then we will be able to go out there and put in a

performance we will be proud of. Their opponents often wilts. They

are twice beaten finalists in this competition, 11 times beaten in
