News at One. World leaders have welcomed the narrow victory for the

New Democracy Party in Greece. Uncertainty remains in the concerns

over the party's ability to form a strong and stable government. Talks

have begun to form a coalition with the party's leader saying he will

seek changes in the terms of its bail out. This morning Germany said

now want the time for granting leeway. Our correspondent Matthew

Price is in Athens. As you just indicated, there is a sense outside

Greece's bored thaerz this country somehow walked up to the edge of

the precipice, looked over the edge and just about pulled itself back.

Most Greeks wouldn't see it like that. As far as they're concerned,

their economic crisis still exists in the same intense levels that it

did before this, though the politics is slowly, this week, we

believe, getting cleared up. My report contains flash photography.

Greeks headed to work this morning, those that have jobs, a new leader,

but the same old problems weighing them down. It was a cliffhanger of

an election. The biggest vote, just, for the party that Europe's leaders

wanted. The Conservative Giorgos Samaras could smile last night. Now

he has to deal with the biggest debt crisis modern Greece has known.

I will make sure that the sacrifices of the Greek people will

bring the country back to prosperityment Today, he arrived at

the President's office to be asked to form a government that. Should

be possible. But it could be quite a weak one. This appointment binds

the eurozone -- buys the eurozone some time. Mr Samaras is likely to

continue the policies that Brussels and Berlin believe will bring down

Greek debt. Yet, the challenges are immense. And the suffering is

growing. We found this make-shift clinic, run by a charity, more used

to working in the developing world. The state cuts to hospital funding

part of the bail out plan. Underthe watchful eye of hipocrates, today's

medical students didn't believe continuing the bail out policies

would work. It's the same recipe that has been used for the last two

years. This hasn't changed anything. It only made things worse. You're

coming to the end of your studies. Do you think you will snai Greece

to work? It's not a change any more. We have to go abroad because we

have to work somehow. We cannot be unemployed till our 30s and 35.

Poverty levels are rising everywhere. The cost gros' lenders

say, the -- Greece's lenders say of bringing down debt. Some believe

investment is needed now. More loans to go into the day-to-day

societyal and business needs. Otherwise the economy will die.

It's dying now. Politics has inched forward here. There's no certainty

the economy will. Greece remains a source of instability for the

eurozone and beyond. I think that's exactly why politics

appears to be moving relatively quickly at the moment. The

President today said he wants a government formed immediately and

Giorgos Samaras, the winner of the elections, is this afternoon

beginning his negotiations to look for coalition partners. Explain

what happens next then? Well in terms of the politics, those

coalition negotiations could go on for two or three days. I think the

sums is that they will wish to -- assumption is that they wish to get

them done as quickly as possible. A relatively strong coalition should

be able to be formed with a little leeway. But of course, then the big

task begins, because the task here is not forming the next government.

The task here is getting the country out of its economic

difficulties. Greece's international lenders have

indicated that their team will come back into oodgeens once a

government is formed -- Athens once a Government is formed to continue

discussions. The Greek government would hope the next couple of

billion in emergency funding would be handed over in time for July,

broadly speaking when this government would run out of money.

Then this government has to deliver its promises. That's where there is

going to be a lot of trouble potentially. This is a population,

a large amount of whom, the majority of whom one could say,

believe the current course is not working. Europe believes it is

working. Account new government find a course between the two?

Can the new government find a course between the two The markets

rose after the election. Spain is causing the main concern. Yields

rise ago buff 7% on its bonds. -- Rising above 7% on its bonds. Our

chief economics correspondent Hugh Pym reports. The City of London

arrived from work breathing a sigh of relief, the prospect of an early

Greek exit from the euro faded. In early trading shares were higher.

Investors know there's uncertainty not least over whether the new

Greek government will try to renegotiate the bail out terms.

There will be some negotiation, what we don't know is what will tur.

You've got to remember 22% unemployment in Greece, more

homeless people, yes, there will have to be some softening. Germany

doesn't want to lose sight of austerity and the need for

structural reform. The German view on any changes to the Greek bail

out deal was becoming clear this morning. The Foreign Minister said

Germany was ready to talk about the time frame, but the substance of

the reforms was not negotiable. The City of London and other financial

centres know there's a lot more to the eurozone crisis than Greece.

And fundamental concerns are still out there. There are big question

marks over the sustainability of public finances in much larger

economies, like Italy and Spain. Spain's ten-year borrowing cost was

around 6.8% on Friday. This morning it jumped to 7.1%, widely regarded

as an unsustainable rate. Spanish taxpayer is picking up the

bill for recapitalising the Spanish banking system. This translates

into a very higher debt burden of the Spanish government and hands

the interest rates, the funding costs for Spain keep rising. The

broader concern in the market is that the Spanish government as a

whole will probably need some sort of bail out package. It may seem

like unfortunate timing that world leaders are flying it a beach

resort in Mexico. The German Chancellor, French President and

Italian Prime Minister are joining other members of the good. 20 for a

summit meeting. You can be sure that Greece, Spain and the future

of the eurozone will be high on the agenda.

The Prime Minister, David Cameron, will arrive shortly in Mexico. He

has already warned that a delay in forming a Government in Greece

could be very dangerous. The crisis in the eurozone and the fallout

from the elections in Greece will dominate the summit. Michelle

Fleury joins us from Los Cabos now. Top of the agenda? Well, David

Cameron as you mention arriving shortly. He's coming here with a

stark warning that inaction on the eurozone crisis could result in

years of stagnation or possibly even the break up of the eurozone,

which would be bad for Britain and bad for the global economy. He says

the challenge they face is as much one of political will as an

economic problem. Now we know the outcome of the Greek election, he's

also going to tell business leaders here that what's needed from

eurozone countries is action. They know what they need to do. The

question is - are they willing to make the sacrifice that will

entail? The big question - will anything actually come out of this

summit? Well, I'm standing here in an idyllic location, but will it be

harmony around the table when the world leaders, which control 90% of

all economic growth in the world, and that's the big question. I

think David Cameron is talking about political will. He'll have to

find some of his own. One of the ideas being discussed is a banking

union. That might potentially affect the competitiveness of

Britain's financial sector, something he'd be keen to protect,

but also at the same time, Britain as much as the rest of the eurozone

and the global economy, needs stability to return. I think as is

the case with many of these summits, people who expect world leaders to

leave here with all of the answers, though, to the big economic

challenges that we currently face, including how to promote growth,

may be slightly disappointed. you.

In France, the new President, Francois Hollande's plans to

promote growth and take longer to reduce the deficit have been

boosted in Parliamentary elections. His party won a comfortable

majority, freing it from relying on votes from anti-austerity parties.

Our business editor Robert Peston is here. So following the elections

in Greece, has anything actually changed? Or does the situation

remain as precarious as ever? remains fairly unstable. Most

people would say the fact that it looks as though the New Democracy

Party has the basis to form a reasonably stable coalition is a

good thing. It mean that's at least there is somebody, an institution,

a group of people for the eurozone to negotiate with. But it looks

very certain that there will still be a pretty big gap, even between

New Democracy, which is not as opposed to austerity as the SYRIZA

party, even though they're not as opposed, they still want some

renegotiation of the bail out package. They want a delay of a

couple of years in the implementation of the cuts. That is

not what Germany and other members say. They particularly don't want

that. There's uncertainty about whether or not the two sides can

come together. There's something more fundamental going on. One of

the thing's that's striking is that Spanish borrowing costs are back at

those dangerous, unaffordable levels. Why is that? It is because,

actually, as far as investors are concerned, Greece isn't the pig

problem, Spain is the big problem. We -- the big problem, Spain is the

big problem. We are a long way to seeing a solution to the

fundamental problems, where a number of countries don't look as

though they can get through the current downturn without more

support from the rest of the eurozone, in particular Germany and

Germany is not yet ready to give that financial support. There's a

paradox here, which is that George Osborne pointed this out last week,

he said funnily enough, he thought the panic caused by a Greek exit

could lead the eurozone to take the kind of fundamental actions

necessary. Curiously, the fact that the result of the Greek elections

may suit some eurozone leaders may have put off the reform that George

Osborne an the markets are looking for.

Thank you. The Children's Minister has

admitted there are serious weaknesss in England's care system

after a report claimed young people were left vulnerable to abuse. A

joint investigation by a group of MPs describes the situation as a

scandal. Our social affairs correspondent Alison Holt reports.

This 14-year-old knows how isolated you can feel in care. She was moved

away from the area and friends she knew and felt the professionals

meant to protect her didn't listen and didn't care. So she ran away

again and again. She was soon being sexually exploited by men. They

know that obviously you're vulnerable for a start because

you're unsettled and depressed where you are. Then they kind of

like do what they want. If you refused, like I refused one person

before, and I got hit in the face. Then after that, I couldn't

remember what happened to me, until I got brought home. Today's all-

party Parliamentary report says children who go missing from care

are being put in great danger. It calls for an independent

investigation into children's homes, which are failing to protect

children. There should be urgent action to reduce out of borough

placements, which mean children can be sent hundreds of miles from home

and better data is needed on the number of children running away

from care. It is a scandal that children that we take into care to

protect and safe guard them are in the care system further damaged,

further exploited and groomed. That is a scandal. I think the public

pressure will be such that, I hope, the Government will take account of

that public opinion and make the changes that need to be made.

Parental responsibility for children in care lies with local

authorities. They say the report makes uncomfortable reading, but

point out, when children are moved to a new area, there may be a good

reason. If you have a child who's been the victim of violence or

sexual abuse, the last thing you would do is put them in a

children's home round the corner, where the person making them a

victim can easily get at them. Often Councils look to break that

cycle by finding the child somewhere to begin a new start away

from the abuser. The Government says the failing is highlighted in

the care system are unacceptable and it will set out urgent next

Tom Maynard has died after being hit by a tube train this morning.

The 23-year-old, the son of Matthew Maynard was tipped as a future

England international. Surrey Cricket Club said he was a talented

batsman. The final report into the PIP

breast implant scandal concluded that the gel material does not

cause a long-term threat to human health, but the reviews say that

the implants, filled with non- medical grade silicone, do have a

higher rupture rate. So, in terms of long-term damage to

women's health, this is not as bad as some thought it would be?

should be reassuring for the 47,000 women who have PIP implants. The

review led by Sir Brce Keogh, the medical NHS director looked at

worldwide evidence and said that they found very little difference

in the chemical composition of the unauthorised gel filler used,

compared to medical grade filler. There was one substance found in

other implants, but at higher levels than the PIP implants, but

even said this was not a long-term health risk. On the issue of breast

cancer, they said that the incidence of breast cancer of women

with the PIP breast implants is lower than the general population

and no evidence from testing that the implant called damage cells.

What did emerge was the rupture rate. That was higher than thought.

That can cause problems? Yes, these are sub-standard the implants. They

are not as strong as other implants. It, roughly, equated to a double

the rate of ruptures. Something like 15 to 30% ruptured in ten

years. That could cause problems such as swelling, swollen limp

nodes and tenderness, but no long- term health risk. So the question

for women is do they keep the implants? Most appear to have done.

Several hundreds have decided to have them removed.

The top story: A sigh of relief as a pro-bail out

party win as vital election in Greece. Talks to form a coalition

are under way, but uncertainty in the country's future in the

eurozone remains. And Wayne Rooney is ready to return

to England's starting line-up as the team prepare for a final group

game in Euro 2012. On BBC London: 40 years on, they

remember the victims of one of the UK's worst air disasters. Police

investigate David Nalbandian's unsportsman like outburst at the

Queeen's Club. In Egypt, supporters of the Muslim

Brotherhood are flocking to Tahrir Square after its candidate,

Mohammed Morsi claimed he had clinched victory for the Islamists

in the presidential election, but in an announcement by the ruling

military koifl, that it had granted itself new powers has overshadowed

the result and mounting to allegationss that the army has

mounted a coup. Jon Leyne is in Cairo for us now.

After taking the new powers last night, the ruling military council

today has come out to reassure Egyptian it is is committed to the

hand over to civilian rule. A senior general said that they would

not interfere with the rule of the new President, but it is unlikely

to satisfy the op -- opposition, who believe that the military have

taken back many of the hard-won gains of the last year's revolution.

Is it a celebration or demonstration? Muslim Brotherhood

supporters in Tahrir Square believe that Mohammed Morsi is the new

President. But they are furious that the

ruling military council have seized back the power to make laws,

control a budget and even to write the constitution.

We are very angry. This is not the responsibility to decide that for

This is the responsibility of the President, for the Parliament, for,

they can't make laws now, at least after the power went from them.

They can't return it back. The opposition have called it a

military coup, but not many have come out here to protest against it.

Once again the demonstrators are out in force in Tahrir Square,

demanding the end to military rule, but do these people represent

Egypt? Or is it these Egyptians, trying to get to work on a Monday

morning? Out here in the souks and the alleyways, many have grown

weary of politics. They want the country to get back to normal.

It is time to go back to work. We need not to go to Tahrir Square.

Enough. That's the sort of sentiment that

the military may be banking on as they take back many of the gains of

the revolution. Today, soldiers prevented MPs from

going into the Parliament, elected with such celebration late last

year. Now it is officially dissolved. Counting is continuing

in the presidential election. It is clear that the result will be close.

If Mohammed Morsi is the winner, he may be President in little more

than name only. Are the Muslim Brotherhood prepared to live with

that? Or will they join with the rest of the opposition in mounting

a new challenge tow military rule? So, the first question facing Egypt,

how much of a fight are the Muslim Brotherhood and the rest of the

opposition going to put up? Canle military withstand another round of

protests on the streets, or have they overplayed their hand? And if

the military get past the initial opposition, can they return Egypt

to the prosperity that is to be the only guarantee that this country

will return to stability? In the last hour another sister of Shafila

Ahmed has been giving evidence at Chester Crown Court in the trial of

their parents. Previously, Alesha Ahmed told the court she had seen

her parents murder Shafila Ahmed in Warrington in 2003.

Iftikhar Ahmed and Forza Italia deny the charges.

Judith Moritz is in the courts for us -- Farzana Ahmed.

This is the first time that the court has heard in mess mess --

Sehreen Shafaat. She was asked when she had last seen her sister. She

told the court it was on the evening of the 11th September, 2003.

That is the day that the prosecution alleged that Iftikhar

Ahmed and Farzana Ahmed murdered their daughter.

Sehreen Shafaat said she had gone to bed as normal. When she woke up

the next day that her sister was not there.

She said that she had assumed that her sister had run away, but then

the pros cure -- prosecutor presented the court with written

documents in the girl's handwriting. Saying that the documents had been

shown to the police by a friend of the daughter. It was said that

these documents were letters that were written to the girl's friend

about the sister's death. Then she said that they were not letters,

but free writing, fiction, make- believe, not even about themselves.

So they were just beginning now in the court to look at the letters,

the content of them. The court has risen for lunch and are expecting

the sister to continue in the witness box this afternoon.

Iftikhar Ahmed and the mother deny murdering their daughter, Shafila

Ahmed, who was 17 years old. Caresers who look after sick or

disabled relatives at home are putting their own health at risk by

delaying visits to the doctor. In a survey it showed that four out of

five had said that their own health had suffered because of the role

that they were taking on. Tracy Sloan knows how demanding it

can be caring for someone disabled or vulnerable. Her son has cerebral

palsy and needs full-time care. -- -- she has been treated after

cancer, but has had no time away from her responsibilities to

rerecover. Philip comes first. Other things

get left to the side. You get round to doing them, but sometimes it is

two or three months later. I left my own health this time. My last

smear test a couple of months ago was fine, I thought it would be OK.

Many carers go through the same thing. A coalition of charities

questioned over 3,000 people and found that almost 40% put off

having medical treatment because of their responsibilities. More than

80% said that their physical and mental health suffered.

This amount of ill health is worrying. If that ill health leads

the carer to crack up, then we have two problems, the person that they

have been caring for and the individual themselves to try to

sort out. The Department of Health said that

carers like Tracy made invaluable contributions to society. The NHS

should make these people a high priority.

The police are investigating an allegations of assault against the

tennis player, David Nalbandian. The Argentinian injured a line

judge during the final at the Queeen's Club in London yesterday.

He was disqualified for unsportsman like conduct. Andrew McDougall

needed treatment for the injury to his shin.

England play their final group game at Euro 2012 tomorrow. Wayne Rooney

is expected to be in the starting line-up after sitting out the first

two games bafr the a ban. He says that England can win the

championship and puts the success down to the relaxed atmosphere in

the team camp. A frustrated fan for the first two

matches, he has served his time. Tomorrow night in the Ukrainian, it

is time to release Wayne Rooney on Euro 2012.

Yeah, I'm hoping to contribute to the team. To do well in the

tournament. You know, I think as a team, we have high standards.

Certainly myself. I set myself high standards. I put pressure on myself

to do well. It's been eight years since he

scored a goal at a major championship as an 18-year-old in

Euro 2004. Roy Hodgson is his fourth England

manager and will put him into the side. He has been impressed by

Wayne Rooney's influence in the squad.

In training sessions he is lively, enthusiastic and he has been a

catalyst for good performances in training. That is very positive.

England should extend the stay at their Krakow base. Yes, Wayne

Rooney's return is going to give them a big lift, but they have done

pretty well without him so far. That is Walcott! Theo Walcott gave

them the spark that they needed against Sweden. His involvement

tomorrow night is in the balance, though, a hamstring problem has

returned. That puts more pressure on Wayne Rooney to deliver.

He puts the ball in the net. That is what he is there for. He is

going to bring football home to England. This is our year.

Wayne Rooney has declared that England can, with a bit of luck,

win this tournament, but even in a city where the strange and the

bizarrely is celebrated daily, that would surely top the lot.

And finally, an unexpected stop for the Olympic Flame this morning. 25-

year-old David State, a charity Frazer and British Red Cross

volunteer walked to his pregnant girlfriend, Christine Langham and

proposed. He was even carrying a ring! And of

course, you will be pleased to know she said "yes", do the delight of

the crowd. Then Mr State continued on his way.

He gave the torch to somebody and gave me a cuddle. That was nice.

Then he got down on one knee, I nearly passed out. I nearly had my

baby there and then! Congratulations to both of them.

Now let's have a look at the Now let's have a look at the

weather with lawyer yab Tobin. Finally good news for us, for a few

days. A brief glimmer of summer. Finally starting to feel like June,

drier and warmer than it has been, but it does not last all week.

Later this week there will be more rain. The radar has shown that the

rain was in the south-east. It has cleared away. There is rain in

Northern Ireland. It is heavy, but most places today are dry with lots

of sunshine. Showers are to develop in the

afternoon. The focus of the heavier showers are in the north-east of

Scotland. Elsewhere, the focus is really on

things being drier, brighter, with light winds in the June sunshine

and temperatures up to 18 Celsius. We could get up to 20 Celsius today.

There are splatters of blue across the map.

A few showers dotted around. The northern areas of Cornwall, Devon,

perhaps into the west country, the Midlands could see a few, but you

are more likely to stay dry, unless you live in Northern Ireland. It is

cool, cloudy and wet here. Rain coulding heavy later on.

Through the evening, many places ending on a fine, dry note.

Northern Ireland improving in the night. As it turns drier and the

rain then pushes into Scotland. A damp night here.

In the north it is chilly but elsewhere, typically 10 to 13

Celsius. So again, sunny spells and scatter

showers over the north-east of Scotland and England but few and

far between. You are more likely to be dry with sunshine. Temperatures

up on today's 19 to 21 Celsius, so it is looking fine to start Royal

Ascot tomorrow. Sunshine here. The winds will be

light, the sun will be out, but it is not set to last. This is how it

looks for the rest of us on Wednesday. A repeat performance.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, very similar. By Wednesday with the

sunshine, a few showers we could be up to 22 Celsius, but as I

mentioned it is not set to last for long. By Thursday there is heavy

rain and even thunder storms, so turning cooler, but my advice, make

the most the sunshine for the next few days as maybe that is all we

are going to get. The top story: Relief as a pro-bail
