:01:09. > :01:11.All this week on Breakfast we're looking at what it means

:01:12. > :01:21.To we are focusing on the millennial is, those born in the 80s and 90s. I

:01:22. > :01:23.have come here to Aberdeen to see what these workers want for the

:01:43. > :01:46.message from students at this primary school. We are talking today

:01:47. > :01:49.about cars idling outside schools and the damage it does.

:01:50. > :01:57.And Carol has the weather for us this morning. Good morning. Actually

:01:58. > :02:02.start, some have frost, but for many it will be sunshine with some

:02:03. > :02:06.showers. Rain across the south, blustery here, and snow would hide.

:02:07. > :02:06.I will have more details of about 15 minutes.

:02:07. > :02:12.There's uncertainty for thousands of British car workers as a deal

:02:13. > :02:15.that will see Vauxhall sold to the French owners of Peugeot

:02:16. > :02:18.and Citroen, is expected to be announced within the next hour.

:02:19. > :02:21.The French car giant PSA wants to buy General Motors European

:02:27. > :02:29.and Luton, from where our reporter Simon Clemison joins us now.

:02:30. > :02:43.Good morning. In the last hour, or in the last few minutes, we have

:02:44. > :02:51.started to see people going into the plant here in Luton. The 6am start

:02:52. > :02:57.has seen some nervousness from staff. What we are seeing today is

:02:58. > :03:00.the car industry map of Europe being redrawn. We have known about the

:03:01. > :03:05.potential for this deal for a couple of weeks, but today we are expecting

:03:06. > :03:10.official combination -- confirmation that this could start to happen and

:03:11. > :03:15.that cars made by a car giant could change hands.

:03:16. > :03:23.In the car industry, where used to car brands been owned by the same

:03:24. > :03:27.company. But if the European arm of General Motors makes this

:03:28. > :03:33.acquisition, it could be a huge move, making the French manufacturer

:03:34. > :03:37.the second biggest on the continent, after VW. But there are now fears

:03:38. > :03:44.for jobs that the unions as they are fighting for. More than 1900 people

:03:45. > :03:49.produce the Astra at Ellesmere Port. Thousands more are employed in the

:03:50. > :03:56.supply chain. They're about 1400 workers at Luton, making one of

:03:57. > :04:00.Vauxhall's fans. If workers here eventually have new bosses in

:04:01. > :04:03.France, rather than in America, there are questions over how they

:04:04. > :04:06.may look to balance the books. Commentators say they have the

:04:07. > :04:09.capacity to build more cars at the players they are ready control. The

:04:10. > :04:15.government has been speaking to the French group, PSA. Staff have been

:04:16. > :04:19.given reassurances. But there are concerns for jobs and pensions once

:04:20. > :04:31.existing contracts start expiring 2020 one. -- 2021.

:04:32. > :04:40.This is go to BA complexes and complex arrangement. Aggression is

:04:41. > :04:47.what happens after that. What happens if Peugeot does what lots of

:04:48. > :04:51.manufacturers do, with a van, and put a Vauxhall badge on it? We don't

:04:52. > :04:55.know what will happen. It is all speculation at the moment. What we

:04:56. > :04:59.do know is that we will see some or we are hoping to see some kind of

:05:00. > :05:03.detail today. But this company is at the moment making a loss. So if they

:05:04. > :05:06.want to make a profit, they will have to do something. We are

:05:07. > :05:11.expecting some detail today, but these are details that many of the

:05:12. > :05:12.workers will want. Thank you for joining us, Simon. More on that

:05:13. > :05:13.throughout the morning. Britain's most senior anti-terrorism

:05:14. > :05:15.officer has revealed that thirteen potential terror attacks have been

:05:16. > :05:19.prevented since June 2013. Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley

:05:20. > :05:21.is launching a campaign, encouraging people to report

:05:22. > :05:22.suspicious activity. Here's our Home Affairs

:05:23. > :05:38.Correspondent Daniel Sandford. The moment caught on a security

:05:39. > :05:44.camera when this man visited a bag of fertiliser he was touring in

:05:45. > :05:46.2004. He was planning to launch an Al Qaeda bombing campaign against

:05:47. > :05:51.targets like nightclubs and shopping centres. He was caught because women

:05:52. > :05:53.at the storage warehouse became suspicious and called police,

:05:54. > :05:59.potentially saving hundreds of lives. If you have a concern about

:06:00. > :06:05.suddenly you have seen or heard they could identify a terrorist threat,

:06:06. > :06:09.reported. A new police campaign focuses on the important

:06:10. > :06:14.contributions the public can make. It could be any you is unusual.

:06:15. > :06:17.Detectives said the public is still playing an important part in one

:06:18. > :06:25.third of their current investigations. -- detectives say.

:06:26. > :06:30.Senior detective said that supporters of so-called Islamic

:06:31. > :06:40.State are not the only threat, and that these includes far right

:06:41. > :06:45.terrorists. New figures suggest that they have been 13 attacks thwarted

:06:46. > :06:49.since 2013. At any one time, the security services are running around

:06:50. > :06:54.500 investigations. The threat level remains at severe, which means that

:06:55. > :07:00.the risk of an attack is assessed as highly likely.

:07:01. > :07:04.North Korea has fired four missiles - three of which landed

:07:05. > :07:06.in Japanese-controlled waters less than 200 miles from its north-west

:07:07. > :07:13.They appear to have been launched from a remote military base

:07:14. > :07:16.We can speak to our correspondent, Steve Evans, who joins us

:07:17. > :07:23.Thank you for joining us. What is going on? North Korea is very

:07:24. > :07:26.annoyed at the moment that South Korea and the United States are

:07:27. > :07:30.holding joint military exercises. North Korea says it is practice for

:07:31. > :07:35.an invasion. So what it does in Ms Connor circumstance, with hide

:07:36. > :07:41.manga, is it looses off missiles. For them, this time, normally fewer

:07:42. > :07:46.than that. But experts will now be looking at whether these missiles

:07:47. > :07:51.are new, weather, for example, they could hit the continental United

:07:52. > :07:56.States. Kim Jong-un has said his aim is to develop a nuclear arsenal and

:07:57. > :07:59.the missiles to put warheads on to hit cities like Los Angeles and

:08:00. > :08:03.Washington. So people will look at this launch to work out if he is

:08:04. > :08:07.making progress towards that. Thank you for joining us.

:08:08. > :08:10.Talks are beginning in Belfast today aimed at forming

:08:11. > :08:13.The two largest parties, the Democratic Unionists

:08:14. > :08:16.and Sinn Fein, are still divided over a botched green energy scheme

:08:17. > :08:20.that led to the collapse of their previous administration.

:08:21. > :08:23.Sinn Fein say the DUP leader, Arlene Foster, can't be re-appointed

:08:24. > :08:30.as First Minister while her role in the scheme is being investigated.

:08:31. > :08:33.A former British soldier has been shot dead on his ranch

:08:34. > :08:38.Tristan Voorspuy ran lodges for visitors in the central Rift

:08:39. > :08:45.He'd served as an army officer in the 1970s and had spent nearly

:08:46. > :08:47.30 years as a rancher and safari operator.

:08:48. > :08:55.A local official blamed rural herdsman.

:08:56. > :08:58.Survivors, rescue workers and victims' relatives will gather

:10:24. > :10:27.anniversary of the disaster. The Herald's Bell will be at the

:10:28. > :10:32.service. This disaster continues to influence the lives of hundreds of

:10:33. > :10:36.ordinary people, the design of ships, and Britain's Millot at --

:10:37. > :10:43.maritime history. And it about half are now we will

:10:44. > :10:49.speak to somebody who helps people on board escaped. We will talk to

:10:50. > :10:50.them later. So few of the survivors feel comfortable talking about what

:10:51. > :10:55.happened, don't they? FBI director James Comey has

:10:56. > :10:57.rejected President Donald Trump's claim on Saturday that his

:10:58. > :10:59.predecessor, Barack Obama, Mr Comey reportedly asked the US

:11:24. > :11:27.to have a decision made on its application for

:13:36. > :13:38.again? Here's Carol with a look

:13:39. > :13:50.at this morning's weather. I cannot turn around. How is it

:13:51. > :13:54.going? A chilly start for some of us with some frost around. But for

:13:55. > :14:00.many, we will see Ramos today. The forecast is one of suddenly spells,

:14:01. > :14:04.or bright scales, and then scattered showers. -- spells. What we have the

:14:05. > :14:08.moment is a lot of low pressure around us. That has a lot of fronts

:14:09. > :14:11.attached to it, particularly in the south-west, where we have rain and

:14:12. > :14:16.also some hill snow, as well. But never way from that, drip into

:14:17. > :14:20.these, there are clearer skies. One or two showers. That holds true,

:14:21. > :14:24.moving north, as well. Although throughout northern England and it

:14:25. > :14:28.central Scotland, there is a weak front, and that is producing some

:14:29. > :14:31.showers. Showers continuing across Shetland, and that towards the

:14:32. > :14:36.worse. We also have some showers. On the hills, there will be some snow.

:14:37. > :14:41.In Northern Ireland, a chilly start. A touch of frost here or there. The

:14:42. > :14:46.odd pocket of fog. For Wales, dry and bright. Temperatures a bit on

:14:47. > :14:50.the low side. Aberdeenshire, where we have some frost at the moment.

:14:51. > :14:54.That is where it is continent. Go through the morning, that rentals

:14:55. > :15:01.away. It will go across the island. It will be windy there. And then we

:15:02. > :15:05.are back into sunshine and showers. Temperatures up to 12 Celsius. Later

:15:06. > :15:08.on in the day, you can see some more coming in across Northern Ireland

:15:09. > :15:12.and they are likely to have some snow on the hills as well. Tonight,

:15:13. > :15:16.the wind arrows are going in every direction. We also have a view

:15:17. > :15:20.showers around and wintry in the hills. And Scotland, where we have

:15:21. > :15:23.low temperatures and dance temperatures, there is the risk of

:15:24. > :15:28.highs on untreated surfaces. Once again, there will be frost around as

:15:29. > :15:32.well. But you cannot fail to mist what is happening in the Atlantic by

:15:33. > :15:35.the end of the night. By tomorrow, that band of rain will swing in

:15:36. > :15:38.across Ireland into south-west England, also through parts of

:15:39. > :15:41.Wales, as well. The cloud will build out of it, so the driest and

:15:42. > :15:46.brightest conditions tomorrow will be out towards the east. But even

:15:47. > :15:50.here, through the day, the sunshine will turn the APA in nature.

:15:51. > :15:55.Averages seven degrees to 11 degrees in the east and seven degrees to 10

:15:56. > :15:59.degrees in the west. That system out in the west, I probably late

:16:00. > :16:02.afternoon, will be taking its friend with it over into eastern errors.

:16:03. > :16:08.You can see this weather front coming here. That will produce rain

:16:09. > :16:12.in the afternoon, and on Thursday it will take another swipe at us from

:16:13. > :16:15.the south-west. Here it is on Wednesday, pushing down towards the

:16:16. > :16:20.south. A drier, prior to her sliced in the south of country coming but

:16:21. > :16:21.still some showers across the far north. Temperatures by Thursday up

:16:22. > :16:36.to 40 Celsius. I hope your neck is better by then.

:16:37. > :16:45.So do I! I want to see you but I cannot. Let us look at the papers.

:16:46. > :16:51.Sally is still with us. I have been rearranging my tie. The Times. The

:16:52. > :17:00.Chancellor bands a tax tax rise to fund budget giveaways. There is

:17:01. > :17:12.Francois Fillon and he is white, Penelope. He says he will stick it

:17:13. > :17:17.out. -- his wife. And the main story is abortions. The UK is the

:17:18. > :17:21.seventh-largest abortion provider. Signing of abortions for women they

:17:22. > :17:31.have never met, according to the Daily Mail. And a diet to slash the

:18:03. > :18:07.news. We will look at what will happen with that later. And Alexis

:18:08. > :18:12.Sanchez this summer. He was dropped to the bench on Saturday at Anfield

:18:13. > :18:16.against Liverpool. And a strong piece about how this could actually

:18:17. > :18:24.be, not just Alexis Sanchez's and again, but the endgame of Wenger.

:18:25. > :18:28.Falling outs happen all the time, but Arsene Wenger is not handling it

:18:29. > :18:34.well. By dropping him to the bench, it is like sending an errant child

:18:35. > :18:40.to their room, but letting them have a burger and a big-screen TV while

:18:41. > :18:44.they are there. That is what it says. So don't drop him and then

:18:45. > :18:50.bring him on to make him unhappy and not performing at his best. The word

:18:51. > :18:54.is he could go to in the summer. I don't know why he did not say that

:18:55. > :18:58.on the day he was getting so much grief for dropping his best player.

:18:59. > :19:05.And deciding to not say anything at all and complete denial. Shall we

:19:06. > :19:10.talk about this? We are being asked if we can help scientists count

:19:11. > :19:15.penguins in case you are bored and need something to help you sleep at

:22:09. > :22:14.can get quite high with pollution. It is a quiet route. We have crossed

:22:15. > :22:20.some roads and seeing huge spikes, actually. They are a short duration.

:22:21. > :22:30.They have got a good route to school. They go down a backstreet.

:22:31. > :22:33.The levels are low there. At the school gates were all the cars are

:22:34. > :22:37.parking and dropping the children off, we can see lots of spikes at

:22:38. > :22:40.that end. And that exposure to pollution over the route is mainly

:22:41. > :22:44.focused around the school gates, actually. So, what can be done?

:22:45. > :22:50.Basically we are asking people to turn off their engine when they are

:22:51. > :22:59.stationary. OK. I understand. We just want to educate people. It is

:23:00. > :23:04.yet another success for this anti-idling patrol. These people

:23:05. > :23:08.have been trained in what to say to people to get them to turn off and

:23:09. > :23:13.deal with inevitable excuses. The councils say this is about local

:23:14. > :23:16.people cleaning up local streets. It is about this street in this area

:23:17. > :23:21.trying to reduce pollution levels for children at school. much

:23:22. > :23:26.difference can switching off your engine make? Testing in one location

:23:27. > :23:30.saw that by stopping idling, pollution levels dropped by a third.

:23:31. > :23:35.The bigger message is that it helps people understand the impact of

:23:36. > :23:40.small actions on the larger problem of air quality. And there is always

:23:41. > :23:45.this approach. I am sorry to bother you, but your engine is running. You

:23:46. > :23:48.wouldn't turn it off, would you, I am just thinking of emissions. In

:23:49. > :23:54.the last six years as he went to work on his way to the theatre of

:23:55. > :23:59.London, Nigel is a man on emission. They wonder who I am and have said

:24:00. > :24:03.some pretty choice things to me. But generally speaking, people are aware

:24:04. > :24:09.and said, oh, sorry, I am not aware of that. This is a drop in the

:24:10. > :24:14.ocean, admittedly, or a particle in the air, compared to the global

:24:15. > :24:17.problem of air pollution. But new research shows how switching off

:24:18. > :24:19.engines can make a difference in protecting our most precious

:24:20. > :24:26.resource. Stop the pollution, it is the only

:24:27. > :24:31.solution, that is the message from one of the precious children at this

:24:32. > :24:36.school. We will talk to the head teacher. What are you holding? This

:24:37. > :24:41.is a travel plan Silver Award which we got eight years ago. They came to

:24:42. > :24:46.look outside the school with the problems of idling and congestion at

:24:47. > :24:54.traffic lights. We want to encourage children to come to school by

:24:55. > :24:59.walking bulky scooting. -- or. You are going for gold. What difference

:25:00. > :25:03.has it made? It has raised the profile of coming to school under

:25:04. > :25:08.your own steam. And perhaps even the parents can sort of suggest that

:25:09. > :25:14.they try more to use scooters and use bikes and walk and look to the

:25:15. > :25:18.future. Because that is what we're doing with children, them for the

:25:19. > :25:23.future. So they can look back and say, well, we did something. We used

:25:24. > :25:28.to go by bus to the swimming pool and now we walk. OK. Thank you. We

:25:29. > :25:34.will chat to some of the children. Good morning to you two. Good

:25:35. > :25:39.morning. You have talked about air pollution. What have you learned? We

:25:40. > :25:49.have learned about idling. We learned that our school has 55.9,

:25:50. > :25:53.umm, N02 like particles. Crikey, you know all the chemicals and

:25:54. > :25:58.everything. It is 15.9 over the limit. Yes. We know that, don't we,

:25:59. > :26:05.sometimes over the European limiting. What things have fully

:26:06. > :26:13.done to persuade people to not idle out the school? We have sent letters

:26:14. > :26:20.to the mayor and Year Twos. We have also been making posters to persuade

:26:21. > :26:24.them. Great. Well done. That is fantastic. Now, you had some notes

:26:25. > :26:28.written on the front of your hand, did you? It is a good trick. We

:26:29. > :26:36.decided to adopt it as well. What did you want is there? Back to you,

:26:37. > :26:43.Dan and Louis. Back to you guys in the studio. Look at that! I like but

:40:53. > :41:04.That does not look in any way comfortable. Yes. I think it gets

:41:05. > :41:12.worse as the pictures go on. It goes worse. I don't like the way he

:41:13. > :41:21.dropped. That is all I can say. Over the line. That is spectacularly

:41:42. > :41:46.one of our main stories, this morning, and today marks the 30th

:41:47. > :41:50.anniversary of the Zeebrugge disaster. It was the deadliest

:41:51. > :41:58.maritime incident involving it British ship in peacetime since 19

:41:59. > :42:03.come in -- says 1919. The Herald of Free Enterprise capsized shortly

:42:04. > :42:06.after leaving the port. Larry O'Brien was one of the people who

:42:07. > :42:11.help people get off the ferry. Thank you for joining us. I'm sure it is

:42:12. > :42:16.difficult even 30 years on to talk about the events of the day. But

:42:17. > :42:20.just take us through - I know you are one of the last people on the

:42:21. > :42:32.ferry. When did you know things were wrong? I had got upstairs. It was

:42:33. > :42:37.about 15 minutes when I got upstairs and went into the restaurant and sat

:42:38. > :42:44.down. And it heaved forward and back, and back to port again. It all

:42:45. > :42:49.only took seconds. It happened so quickly. It was unbelievable how

:42:50. > :42:57.quickly it happen. I suppose from the time I went on it was all over

:42:58. > :43:02.within 15 minutes. Riot, it right. It basically turned onto its side.

:43:03. > :43:07.Where were you when that happened? Basically, I had been in shock and

:43:08. > :43:13.went across to the restaurant and had sat down and ordered a meal. And

:43:14. > :43:19.I was sitting down. And that it started to hear. All I could do, my

:43:20. > :43:24.table was fixed to the ground, so I just held the table. It is

:43:25. > :43:29.unbelievable how quickly it all happened. It was all over with. When

:43:30. > :43:35.the ship went completely over on its side. It is hard to imagine for a

:43:36. > :43:44.person. The size of the ship to go completely on its side. But three

:43:45. > :43:49.quarters of the ship inside was full of water. Clearly a terrifying

:43:50. > :43:56.situation to be in. You managed to find a way out, and then started

:43:57. > :44:00.helping other people, did you? Look, I did not have much time to think

:44:01. > :44:06.about it when I was looking around me. I had to decide... There was any

:44:07. > :44:11.one way out. I was used to be on ships. I was a ships twice a week

:44:12. > :44:15.going from and coming to. I was going to Europe direct from Ireland,

:44:16. > :44:21.or go to England, and then on to France. I had plenty of experience

:44:22. > :44:30.being on board, so knew the only way out was. So I eventually got up and

:44:31. > :44:35.got onto the side of the ship. In a terrified state, I can tell you,

:44:36. > :44:39.because I did not know what was keeping it up or if it was courtesy

:44:40. > :44:47.call together. I would not be a good swimmer. I swim very badly,

:44:48. > :44:54.actually. And I just did not know if it I, it was go to go to the bottom

:44:55. > :44:59.or white. IDC found a rope and started taking people out through

:45:00. > :45:05.one of the porthole windows. -- I eventually found a rope. As a two

:45:06. > :45:11.people out, some of them stopped and started to help to take more people

:45:12. > :45:17.out. And it went on from there. -- as I took people out. I had about 30

:45:18. > :45:23.people out and more people kept coming. I looked around, and the

:45:24. > :45:28.sense... The eerie feeling that there were 70 people on board that

:45:29. > :45:33.night, that nobody knew there would be, that so many people were on it.

:45:34. > :45:40.This in the newspaper had run a day trip to Belgium for ?1, and hence

:45:41. > :45:47.there were so many people on board. 194 lives were lost. The screens

:45:48. > :45:53.that night inside the ship... It was like a floating cough in. It was

:45:54. > :45:57.unbelievable. -- the screams will stop is a mere will never forget, 30

:45:58. > :46:02.years later. But I was one of the lucky ones. I was one of those who

:46:03. > :46:07.survived. And an EU help lots of other people survive, as well. Will

:46:08. > :46:14.you be thinking today and remembering people today? -- and you

:46:15. > :46:21.helped. Of course. I was lucky in one way. There was only one person

:46:22. > :46:28.on the boat who was Irish that I knew. He was from Co Mead in

:46:29. > :46:33.Ireland. I did not personally know him but he lost his life on board

:46:34. > :46:37.that night. 30 years later, I will be thinking about all the people

:46:38. > :46:43.that lost their lives. You know, that night inside the chip, there

:46:44. > :46:48.were so many small children heading to Belgium, and so many adults, all

:46:49. > :46:50.people out for the day, of course I will remember it. It was an awful

:46:51. > :47:01.thing to happen. Thank you for talking to us today.

:47:02. > :47:05.Thank you. As he said, so many people will remember that. Are

:47:06. > :47:18.absolutely. I think you will enjoy this next part. Normally we have to

:47:19. > :47:22.turn around. Louise has a bad neck so we will look down the camera.

:47:23. > :47:27.Good morning. Bright spells in sunshine and also some showers. Some

:47:28. > :47:31.rain in the forecast as well. The rain is in south-west England. A

:47:32. > :47:35.weather front. This area of low pressure. We are surrounded by low

:47:36. > :47:43.pressures. This has taken wet and windy weather south. Gusty winds of

:47:44. > :47:50.80 miles per hour here. The forecast will start here at 8am. A lot of

:47:51. > :47:55.rain and also some snow on the moors. It starts to sink down

:47:56. > :47:59.towards the Channel Islands. In southern areas away from that rain,

:48:00. > :48:03.dry weather, sunshine, variable cloud. The cloud here and there is

:48:04. > :48:08.thick enough for the odd shower. Northern England and eastern parts

:48:09. > :48:13.of Scotland, a weather front producing showery outbreaks of rain.

:48:14. > :48:18.Again, another in Shetland. You will have that for a bit. More showers in

:48:19. > :48:25.the West. Snowy for Northern Ireland. A dry and bright start.

:48:26. > :48:31.Wales. A dry and bright start, and the odd shower in the south. Frosty

:48:32. > :48:36.to start in the highlands. Through the course of the day, the rain will

:48:37. > :48:40.pull away and go into the Channel Islands. It will be windy for a

:48:41. > :48:44.while here and then it will be a mixture of rights spells, sunshine,

:48:45. > :48:49.and highs of 12 degrees. More showers will pack in Northern

:48:50. > :48:54.Ireland with hill snow again. The rest of the afternoon and into the

:48:55. > :48:58.evening and overnight, starting to push over into western parts of

:48:59. > :49:02.mainland Britain. Showers in the east. One or two in the centre of

:49:03. > :49:07.the country. A lot of dry weather around. Cold enough for some frost.

:49:08. > :49:15.Damp surfaces bringing highs risks. By the end of the night, we will see

:49:16. > :49:21.this system come in from the west across south-west England into Wales

:49:22. > :49:26.and Ireland and after that, sunshine. However, as the system

:49:27. > :49:29.continues to push across Northern Ireland and eventually getting into

:49:30. > :49:35.north-west England and north Scotland, the cloud will build. The

:49:36. > :49:39.far east having the dark skies the longest. It will take until after

:49:40. > :49:43.dark probably until the rain makes the eastern areas. Here comes the

:49:44. > :49:47.weather front. Quite blustery, as you can tell from the squeezing

:49:48. > :49:53.isobars. And then we have a second front. The tail end of that will

:49:54. > :49:57.come back in. To put detail on that, here comes the rain again. Again, a

:49:58. > :50:03.lot of rain pushing towards the south. Rain in the north as well. In

:50:04. > :50:08.between, brighter conditions. Highs of 12 degrees. A blustery day.

:50:09. > :50:12.Friday, rain swinging in from the south-west. Quite a lot of dry

:50:13. > :50:18.weather further east with temperatures especially in the south

:50:19. > :50:28.coming down, now on the up. Thank you. Good to hear. We like a bit of

:50:29. > :50:36.rain. The rain was coming down very solidly.

:50:37. > :50:38.On Wednesday, the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, will unveil his

:50:39. > :50:41.economic plans for the country in his spring budget.

:50:42. > :50:44.Here on Breakfast this week, we'll be looking at the impact it

:50:45. > :50:48.This morning, we're focusing on millennials, those born

:50:49. > :50:52.Steph has taken to the road, and is just outside Aberdeen for us

:50:53. > :50:54.with a catering business and its young workforce.

:50:55. > :51:08.You have a massive spoon! It is my paddle. Good morning, everybody. I

:51:09. > :51:15.wish it did smell this. It is a gorgeous stew being made here. I am

:51:16. > :51:18.at a catering factory in Aberdeen. I am talking about what the economy

:51:19. > :51:22.will do for young people. The budget is coming out soon. I am travelling

:51:23. > :51:30.the country to work out what it means for different generations.

:51:31. > :51:36.This firm employs nearly 100,000 people. They have 1500 meals they

:51:37. > :51:40.need to make today. That food will go to the offices in the area. They

:51:41. > :51:45.also work with the energy industry. We will talk with 16-year-old

:51:46. > :51:54.Nicole. You left school and came straight here. Doing well. I left

:51:55. > :52:03.the academy after I won a competition and went through to the

:52:04. > :52:08.final. It is all going well for you? You are earning while learning. And

:52:09. > :52:13.you are saving for a car? I have a driving test coming up. Good luck

:52:14. > :52:18.with that. I also want you to meet Tyler, one of the apprentices here

:52:19. > :52:24.doing accountancy. A little bit older. 19. Tell us a little bit

:52:25. > :52:32.about your life and what used band your money on. Most of my money goes

:52:33. > :52:37.on my car. -- what you spend your money on. What would make your life

:52:38. > :52:42.easier with money? Is fuel came down a little bit and car insurance quite

:52:43. > :52:49.a lot. -- if. It is extortionate on young children. You live at home at

:52:50. > :52:54.the moment. What is your plan? I want to save as much as I can to get

:52:55. > :53:01.out by 24. You would like to buy your own house? Yeah. Wendy you that

:53:02. > :53:09.happening? 24- 25. -- When do you. Does it feel different to

:53:10. > :53:13.university? I definitely have the advantage of having finished my

:53:14. > :53:19.course by the time they get out of university. Good luck to you. Lovely

:53:20. > :53:23.to talk to you. We are talking to many people about this. Jane

:53:24. > :53:26.McCubbin, one of the Breakfast reporters, went to see some people

:53:27. > :53:30.in London to see what they are worried about.

:53:31. > :53:42.Let us introduce the millennials. Hi, my name is Abby. I am 24, and I

:53:43. > :53:45.am a freelance as. I live in Tottenham, north London, with my

:53:46. > :53:54.parents and my brother and younger sister. I am 24. I live at home with

:53:55. > :53:58.my mum and sister. I live in Surrey and I am renting and lived four

:53:59. > :54:03.other people. All this week, we will be getting a grip on what this

:54:04. > :54:08.generation wants from the budget. If you are a millennial, you were born

:54:09. > :54:12.between 1981 and 2000. You are finishing education and making a

:54:13. > :54:15.start to your career. You have been most affected by the falling pay of

:54:16. > :54:22.recent years and are struggling to get onto the housing ladder and are

:54:23. > :54:25.suffering high rents as a result. So it is with our millennials. Me and

:54:26. > :54:31.my sister share a room, which we have done all our lives. I am 24.

:54:32. > :54:36.24! It is a bit like, OK, it is time to go. We cannot afford it. It is

:54:37. > :54:41.just not going to happen. How does your mother feel about this? Until I

:54:42. > :54:46.am kicked out, I am going to have to stay there. None of their salaries

:54:47. > :54:52.can come remotely close to the 6-figure sums to just rent here. To

:54:53. > :54:57.be managed to move out of home, but only by moving out of the city. --

:54:58. > :55:04.Toby. The am for you is to own your own home? Yes. Somewhere. Like many

:55:05. > :55:07.of the children my age, I could get a deposit, though it will take a

:55:08. > :55:11.while. I just want economic stability. Economic stability. That

:55:12. > :55:15.is the big thing for to be especially with Brexit. I want the

:55:16. > :55:19.government to reassure me with something coming out now. What do

:55:20. > :55:23.they want from the budget on Wednesday exactly? Housebuilding,

:55:24. > :55:28.economic security, and Brexit. This is what I want, affordable housing,

:55:29. > :55:32.and how are they going to pay for it? Go after tax dodgers. I want the

:55:33. > :55:36.government to support young people so they don't have to move out of

:55:37. > :55:42.the city to make a living. Make housing affordable. So, Philip

:55:43. > :55:48.Hammond, if you are watching, millennials want housing, housing,

:55:49. > :55:49.and housing. And a new focus on a generation that largely feels left

:55:50. > :55:59.out. Jane McCubbin, BBC News. With me now is Adam who is from

:56:00. > :56:02.Shelter Scotland. Obviously, your charity looked at a lot of the

:56:03. > :56:06.issues with people trying to get housing. We were hearing about young

:56:07. > :56:10.people worried about that just then. What could we hear that would help

:56:11. > :56:15.young people getting on the ladder? We need to build more homes, and

:56:16. > :56:19.more affordable homes, and in particular, homes available for

:56:20. > :56:23.social rent. The stories heard today and you will hear if you are

:56:24. > :56:27.anywhere across the country today is that we just do not have enough

:56:28. > :56:31.supply of good quality affordable homes. That is having a tangible

:56:32. > :56:35.knock-on effect on young people. I saw a report last year that in

:56:36. > :56:40.Scotland, nearly a million people aged between 18 and 45 were putting

:56:41. > :56:46.off major life milestones because of the impact of housing. That is

:56:47. > :56:50.impacting children, getting married, and retirement, at the other. The

:56:51. > :00:19.cost of housing is having a huge effect. -- the other end.

:00:20. > :00:25.Hello this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:01:41. > :01:44.80s and 90s. This factory here in Aberdeen employs a lot of them. I

:01:45. > :01:45.look to find out what they want from the economy.

:02:20. > :02:23.with some frost around. But for some of us, bright spells and showers.

:02:24. > :02:28.Some heavy rain across parts of south-west England depositing some

:02:29. > :02:30.snow in the Moors, but that will clear, and then you, too will have

:02:31. > :02:32.sunshine and showers. There's uncertainty for thousands

:02:33. > :02:38.of British car workers as a deal that will see Vauxhall sold

:02:39. > :02:41.to the French owners of Peugeot The French car giant

:02:42. > :02:45.PSA has agreed to buy General Motors European operations

:02:46. > :02:47.for ?1.9 billion pounds. The deal includes Vauxhall's plants

:02:48. > :02:50.in Ellesmere Port and Luton, from where our reporter

:02:51. > :03:10.Simon Clemison joins us now. Good morning to you. I have been

:03:11. > :03:14.speaking to one or two people here as the shares have changed over in

:03:15. > :03:19.Luton this morning. And there is concern that this deal, which as you

:03:20. > :03:22.say has been confirmed in the last hour. We were expected over the last

:03:23. > :03:25.few weeks, but what it essentially means is that the car industry map

:03:26. > :03:31.of Europe could be redrawn. In the car industry,

:03:32. > :03:34.we're used to car brands been owned But if the European arm

:03:35. > :03:38.of General Motors, which makes Vauxhall, or Opel in Germany,

:03:39. > :03:41.to the company that makes Peugeot and Citroen goes ahead,

:03:42. > :03:44.it would be a huge move, making the French manufacturer

:03:45. > :03:46.the second biggest But there are now fears for jobs,

:03:47. > :03:50.which the Unite union says More than 1900 people produce

:04:29. > :04:33.for jobs and pensions once existing contracts start

:04:34. > :04:43.to expire in 2021. Now we know that because it does not

:04:44. > :04:48.make much sense, if you think about it, to move production until a model

:04:49. > :04:51.comes to the end of the line. That is because it is very complex and

:04:52. > :05:05.costly. Everything is that APA. So does not make much as they say. But

:05:06. > :05:11.it is have even. But what if Perce use one of its fans as a basis for a

:05:12. > :05:14.Vauxhall model. If it has a facility elsewhere in Europe, we could be

:05:15. > :05:18.outside in Europe at that point. There are so many questions to

:05:19. > :05:22.remember. As I said, the arm of the company at the moment is not making

:05:23. > :05:26.profit, it is making a loss. So they want to make a profit, they could

:05:27. > :05:28.adapt to do something. We are expecting more details in the next

:05:29. > :05:31.hour, details that the workers want. Britain's most senior anti-terrorism

:05:32. > :05:33.officer has revealed that thirteen potential terror attacks have been

:05:34. > :05:37.prevented since June 2013. Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley

:06:40. > :06:43.a danger, too, as does New official figures show

:06:44. > :06:46.that the number of attacks in Britain thought to have been

:06:50. > :06:51.than the figure given At any one time, the security

:06:52. > :06:58.services are running The threat level remains at severe,

:06:59. > :07:02.which means that the risk of an attack is assessed

:07:03. > :07:19.as "highly likely". And we'll be talking little more

:07:20. > :07:24.about that later, and about 40 minutes time.

:07:25. > :07:29.North Korea has fired four missiles, - three of which landed

:07:30. > :07:31.in Japanese-controlled waters less than 200 miles

:07:32. > :07:35.They appear to have been launched from a remote military base

:07:36. > :07:39.We can speak to our correspondent, Steve Evans, who joins us

:07:40. > :07:47.What more can you tell us about this? How serious is it? It is this

:07:48. > :07:52.the very serious SA Power like North Korea, which is about to turn

:07:53. > :07:56.Washington into a sea of flames, and is working on nuclear weapons,

:07:57. > :07:59.unleashes for missiles. What would make it really serious is if these

:08:00. > :08:06.launches show that it is making progress, that it is making better

:08:07. > :08:10.missiles. It let off a whole host of missiles last year and many were

:08:11. > :08:14.duds. These were not. Experts will now look to see if North Korea is

:08:15. > :08:18.making progress towards an intercontinental ballistic missile.

:08:19. > :08:27.And if that happens, then the US get seriously worried. -- the US gets

:08:28. > :08:28.seriously. Labour has said it is "confident"

:08:29. > :08:31.that Jeremy Corbyn has paid It's after the Labour leader

:08:32. > :08:35.published his tax return as part of a call for transparency

:08:36. > :08:37.from politicians. The return did not appear to include

:08:38. > :08:40.the money he is entitled Let's get the latest from our

:08:41. > :08:49.Political Correspondent Iain Watson Just take us through what exactly

:08:50. > :08:53.has been published and what questions they might be. I think

:08:54. > :08:55.what Jeremy Corbyn is finding out is that there is an unintended

:08:56. > :08:58.consequence to publishing his tax return. The intended consequence was

:08:59. > :09:02.to put his political opponents on the back foot, to say they are not

:09:03. > :09:05.being transparent. Philip Hammond, the Chancellor, as you know, said he

:09:06. > :09:09.would not make his tax affairs public. But now it is Jeremy

:09:10. > :09:12.Corbyn's own tax affairs that are in the spotlight. Because at first

:09:13. > :09:15.base, it looked like he had not declared extra income is Leader of

:09:16. > :09:20.the Opposition. Some newspapers reported that. Additionally, his

:09:21. > :09:24.office could not come up with Asus factory expedition. I can tell you,

:09:25. > :09:29.though, that the riddle has been solved. It is difficult to read the

:09:30. > :09:36.small print, but it turns out that that extra salad extra salary is

:09:37. > :09:40.listed as a benefit, broken down into the Stuart Kennedy Greek public

:09:41. > :09:43.office. It appears that Jeremy Corbyn has coughed up the right

:09:44. > :09:48.amount of tax. But what his opponents are saying inside, never

:09:49. > :09:52.mind outside, the Labour Party is that there might not be tax evasion

:09:53. > :09:56.or avoidance, but this issue is about confidence. He should have

:09:57. > :10:00.been a silly crystal clear about his own tax affairs before he went on

:10:01. > :10:03.the attack and try to take his vertical opponents out in the week

:10:04. > :10:08.of the budget. Thank you for joining us. -- take his political opponents

:10:09. > :10:11.out. This week BBC News are

:10:12. > :10:14.looking at air pollution - the World Health Organisation

:10:15. > :10:17.estimates 9 out of 10 people across the world are

:10:18. > :10:18.breathing polluted air. And it's estimated in the UK

:10:19. > :10:22.the lives of around 40,000 people a year are shortened

:10:23. > :10:24.due to illnesses linked We're joined now by Dr Maria Neira

:10:25. > :10:32.from the World Health Really good to talk to. How have the

:10:33. > :10:36.WHO come to this figure of 1.7 million deaths from children under

:10:37. > :10:40.five each year? This is an estimation that we do and the

:10:41. > :10:44.purpose of that was to alert and to raise awareness about how this

:10:45. > :10:52.problem is getting really dramatic. Years ago, we had an alert saying

:10:53. > :10:58.that 6.5 million premature deaths are recorded every year because of

:10:59. > :11:03.the exposure to add pollution. Both indoor and outdoor air pollution.

:11:04. > :11:08.Today, our call is for giving people the figures that represent the cost

:11:09. > :11:12.of polluted air we breathe. And this time, we focused on children,

:11:13. > :11:17.because we think the figure is even more dramatic. So 1.7 million deaths

:11:18. > :11:20.in children under the age of five caused by exposure to different

:11:21. > :11:26.environmental risk factors, I think that deserves some action and alert

:11:45. > :11:48.solutions that may be in richer countries we have put in place. But

:11:49. > :11:53.it is wrong to think that this is only affecting developing countries.

:11:54. > :11:57.This is affecting all of us. This is affecting, as well, people living in

:11:58. > :12:01.very industrialise places, the rich places, where you cannot choose the

:12:02. > :12:07.air you breathe. You are exposed and you have two breathe, no matter

:12:08. > :12:12.where you are. In different cities around the world, you are exposed.

:12:13. > :12:16.We are looking particularly at air pollution this morning. But the

:12:17. > :12:20.purpose of your figures, you have considered clean water, add

:12:21. > :12:24.pollution and so on. The thing that can be confusing to lump all of

:12:25. > :12:27.those together when they are all distinct problems? Yes. In the of

:12:28. > :12:32.air-pollution, this is one of the biggest environmental risks that we

:12:33. > :12:37.are on. As I said, there are 6.5 million deaths around the globe

:12:38. > :12:42.caused by exposure to air-pollution. The message is different if you are

:12:43. > :12:46.living a rich country or a developing country. But still this

:12:47. > :12:51.is a problem that we all need to put measures in place to fight for. And

:12:52. > :12:56.the BBC, this week, we're looking at a sort of series about pollution.

:12:57. > :13:02.Today, that eagerly, we're looking at the problem of idling. People are

:13:03. > :13:08.sitting with their car engines on. They can cause issues, can't it?

:13:09. > :13:12.Sure. It might only be a small part of the solutions we need to put in

:13:13. > :13:16.place, but it is an important one. Because first it desensitises

:13:17. > :13:22.children, and create education. And it promotes as well a safer and more

:13:23. > :13:27.sustainable way of transport. Ideally, we should go for a public

:13:28. > :13:33.transport system, that would be more cost-effective and reduce pollution.

:13:34. > :13:35.We need to invest in better systems for sustainable transport, public

:13:36. > :13:39.transport, but in the meantime, obviously all of those measures are

:13:40. > :13:44.extremely important and can contribute to the solution. A lot of

:13:45. > :13:47.those things to government action. But on an individual and family

:13:48. > :13:54.bases, what sort of things could or should we be doing? I think that is

:13:55. > :13:58.a good measure. If you can safely walk or ride a bike, that would be

:13:59. > :14:02.fantastic as well. And creating that culture at home to your children, as

:14:03. > :14:07.well. Recycling. The conscious of the way we use energy. We need to be

:14:08. > :14:12.very efficient in the way we use energy. Particularly if our energy

:14:13. > :14:16.or electricity is produced by coal fired power plants, which are very

:14:17. > :14:20.much in committing to the pollution. And we all need to get very

:14:21. > :14:24.well-informed. Because the more we know about how our pollution is

:14:25. > :14:31.impacting our health, how it is having a terrible negative impact on

:14:32. > :14:37.our cardiovascular systems and so on, the more pressure we put on our

:14:38. > :14:43.politicians for them to take more measures. Our mayor 's, those who

:14:44. > :14:47.have solutions that are a bit more institutional at a government level.

:14:48. > :14:53.But we'll need to contribute. From what you are saying, there is no

:14:54. > :14:58.quick fix. There are some quick fixes. If you change the sources of

:15:21. > :15:23.pollution all this week, and John Maguire is at a school

:15:24. > :15:27.in East London where they're trying to tackle a particular

:15:28. > :15:33.aspect of the issue. The main stories this morning. The

:15:34. > :15:45.French car giant, PSA, will buy the European arm of General Motors for

:15:46. > :15:49.?1.9 million. And the most senior antiterrorism officer reveals 13

:15:50. > :15:57.terror attacks have been boiled on home soil. -- foiled. He will be

:15:58. > :16:04.with us later. We were saying that John Maguire is out and about

:16:05. > :16:05.talking about pollution caused by cars keeping their engines on while

:16:06. > :16:08.they are waiting. Good morning. John Maguire is at a school

:16:09. > :16:18.in East London where they're trying Good morning. They have a clear

:16:19. > :16:26.message for us this morning. Stop idling! There you go. These are the

:16:27. > :16:30.wonderful posters they have been working on. Idling is an issue here

:16:31. > :16:34.just like it is across the UK. Just behind the children is where they

:16:35. > :16:38.sit with their engines running. It is an even larger problem in the

:16:39. > :16:43.winter, of course. One of the things the school has done has applied for

:16:44. > :16:49.a grant to plant some trees to negate the effects of idling. It is

:16:50. > :16:55.an issue here and right across UK in schools.

:16:56. > :16:57.What do you think those dark patches are?

:16:58. > :17:01.From schools in Birmingham, to Port Talbot...

:17:02. > :17:05.We are looking at where we will plant trees

:17:06. > :17:07.in the school to help tackle air pollution.

:17:08. > :17:10.Many people have issues because of the things

:17:11. > :17:14.There is a quiet revolution under way, and at times like this.

:17:15. > :17:21.In the name of science, Will has said he will take this tool

:17:22. > :17:41.Using highly sophisticated tech, we can analyse the pollution.

:17:42. > :17:43.He will track pollution along his journey with his friends.

:17:44. > :17:46.And now we have a professor from the University of Leeds

:17:47. > :17:51.Normally when you are stuck in traffic, that is when the levels

:17:52. > :17:57.We have crossed some roads and seeing huge spikes, actually.

:17:58. > :18:00.They have got a good route to school.

:18:01. > :18:10.At the school gates is where all the cars are parking and dropping

:18:11. > :18:13.the children off and idling, we can see lots of spikes

:18:14. > :18:19.And that exposure to pollution over the route is mainly focused around

:18:20. > :18:24.So, basically we are asking people to turn off their engine

:18:25. > :18:43.It is yet another success for this anti-idling patrol.

:18:44. > :18:46.These volunteers in Islington have been trained in what to say

:18:47. > :18:50.to people to get them to turn off and deal with inevitable excuses.

:18:51. > :18:54.The councils say this is about local people cleaning up local streets.

:18:55. > :18:57.Today it is about this street in this area trying to reduce

:18:58. > :19:00.pollution levels for pupils at school.

:19:01. > :19:04.So, just how much difference can switching off your engine make?

:19:05. > :19:06.Testing in one location saw that by stopping idling,

:19:07. > :19:13.The bigger message is that it helps people understand the impact

:19:14. > :19:16.of small actions on the kind of larger problem of air quality.

:19:17. > :19:24.I'm sorry to bother you, but your engine is running.

:19:25. > :19:32.In the last six years as he went to work on his way to the theatre

:19:33. > :19:35.of London, actor Nigel Havers is a man on a mission.

:19:36. > :19:39.They wonder who I am and have said some pretty choice things to me.

:19:40. > :19:41.But generally speaking, people are aware and said,

:19:42. > :19:47.This is a drop in the ocean, admittedly, or a particle

:19:48. > :19:50.in the air, if you liked, when compared to the global problem

:19:51. > :19:57.But new research shows how changing habits and switching off engines can

:19:58. > :20:01.make a difference in protecting our most precious resource.

:20:02. > :20:14.And who could say no to Nigel and these posters? Look at this one.

:20:15. > :20:22.Make the earth cleaner. Less pollution. I like this one. Stop

:20:23. > :20:30.pollution, it's the only solution. You can wait, but switch off the

:20:31. > :20:36.engine. That is talk to Ralph from NICE. I'll be doing enough? We have

:20:37. > :20:41.put Freedom of Information request to councils. Only 50 said they and

:20:42. > :20:51.give staff the right to issues fines. The guides were using say it

:20:52. > :20:56.is a good thing. Children and elderly are particularly vulnerable.

:20:57. > :21:00.At the age of 14, they are at a stage of development, and pollution

:21:01. > :21:05.can harm the development of their lungs. We want to do something about

:21:06. > :21:11.this. And fines is one of the guidelines recommended. Do we expect

:21:12. > :21:15.them to be successful and taken up? We see all sorts of signs outside

:21:16. > :21:19.school about slowing down and not parking on the lines and that sort

:21:20. > :21:25.of thing. Should this be at every school? It depends on the setting.

:21:26. > :21:28.Look at where we are. Many high buildings surrounding us. That

:21:29. > :21:33.causes a barrier that trapped pollutants inside. You have problems

:21:34. > :21:38.in places like this. In other places with better insulation, there are a

:21:39. > :21:43.number of diesel vehicles not passing through, and it is not so

:21:44. > :21:46.much a problem. We know from measurements that this is one of the

:21:47. > :21:52.three worst polluted schools in London. It is of particular concern

:21:53. > :21:56.here. The children. Good morning. Tell me what you have been doing at

:21:57. > :22:02.school. At school we have been doing many things towards idling. For

:22:03. > :22:06.example, we have been learning how it can affect people. Yeah. And

:22:07. > :22:12.mainly children. Some people with asthma and maybe lung disease. It

:22:13. > :22:17.can affect them negatively. Absolutely. What will you do,

:22:18. > :22:25.Joseph? Tell me about your white sheet. We put white sheets

:22:26. > :22:29.everywhere. When we collect them back in, the one in the car park

:22:30. > :22:34.that we put up was very black. Right. So was the one in the

:22:35. > :22:38.playground. Though not as bad the point that is worrying, because then

:22:39. > :22:42.you know that is what is happening inside your lungs as well. Shall we

:22:43. > :22:49.have a back to the studio? Back to the studio, Dan and Louise. Back to

:22:50. > :22:56.the studio, Dan and Louise. Excellent work. Thank you! Thank you

:22:57. > :23:03.for remembering our names. I could get used to that. Now for the

:23:04. > :23:08.weather with Carol! The best introduction ever. The weather has a

:23:09. > :23:11.role to play in air pollution. I am no expert on the subject, but when

:23:12. > :23:21.the rush-hour was, generally speaking, we do not have so many

:23:22. > :23:30.problems. -- there are showers,. That is because the air is rising.

:23:31. > :23:35.But with high pressure, that acts as a lid, keeping pollutants in We have

:23:36. > :23:38.sunny spells and scattered showers in the forecast. Some have

:23:39. > :23:44.persistent rain. Especially in south-west England. Low not far

:23:45. > :23:51.away. And some fronts producing this rain. We are just off the peninsula

:23:52. > :23:54.where we have had a gust of wind at 109 miles per hour recently. Nothing

:23:55. > :24:00.like that here. This morning in south-west England, rain. Snow in

:24:01. > :24:06.the moors. That will continue to pulls out. That is around the

:24:07. > :24:10.Channel Islands. Southern counties. Sunny spells and bright spells. With

:24:11. > :24:16.the cloud, certainly big enough for the odd shower. That extends into

:24:17. > :24:23.central England as well. The same for Scotland. Another front in

:24:24. > :24:28.Shetland producing rain. Aberdeenshire, frost. More showers

:24:29. > :24:32.and hill snow in the west. A nippy start in Northern Ireland. Some

:24:33. > :24:38.sunshine for you. It will not last all day. Wales, sunshine around. And

:24:39. > :24:44.a nippy start. Through the day, you can see how it will remain. It will

:24:45. > :24:49.improve in south-west England with sunshine and showers. Most of the

:24:50. > :24:53.sunshine will be in the east. A lot of dry weather. But later in the

:24:54. > :24:57.day, some more rain will show its hand across Northern Ireland. Some

:24:58. > :25:02.else do with that as well. Through the evening and overnight that will

:25:03. > :25:07.transfer into the mainland parts of England and Wales and Scotland.

:25:08. > :25:11.Showers in the east still. The wind direction, coming from all

:25:12. > :25:18.directions. Cold enough for frost in sheltered areas tonight. Where there

:25:19. > :25:24.are damp surfaces, the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. Tomorrow, dry

:25:25. > :25:29.and bright and much of the UK. More rain in the south-west and in Wales

:25:30. > :25:33.and Northern Ireland. Ahead of that, cloud building. Windy as well.

:25:34. > :25:37.Slowly progressing to the east. Eastern areas hanging onto the

:25:38. > :25:42.driest conditions until after dark. There goes that front, moving east.

:25:43. > :25:48.Then another one sinking south, just in time for Wednesday. Then, on

:25:49. > :25:51.Wednesday, we are looking at a pretty wet day in southern and

:25:52. > :25:56.central areas. Rain in the north. But in between, brighter and

:25:57. > :26:03.brighter conditions. Thank you very much for that. We will see you later

:35:08. > :35:20.could do that today. Did go according to plan? I just

:35:21. > :35:23.tried to tag onto Yasemin Can. And managed to cross the line in first

:35:24. > :35:27.place. And after her efforts to complete

:35:28. > :35:30.a victory lap on Saturday, she had a more relaxed time of it

:38:05. > :38:11.play for our fans. The atmosphere is great. Weekend deal that. And yes,

:38:12. > :38:17.so far, we are in a very good position, here. We feel confident

:38:18. > :38:27.and we hope that we can go in the same way. -- we can feel that.

:39:04. > :39:12.Lots of people taking part. There is one kind of hole that is very

:39:13. > :39:20.popular. It is thought of upsidedown and over the shoulder. Over the hay

:39:21. > :39:26.bales. And the winners were in fact Jack and Kirsty from North Wales. We

:39:27. > :39:31.will see the end of the course is actually upheld. That is very

:39:32. > :39:36.challenging. There is a Brogue Kick who just got his wife. -- there is a

:39:37. > :39:40.blokey. And there you have -- and there you have Jack and

:39:41. > :39:45.Kirsty. Getting ready to sit exams can

:39:46. > :39:57.be a stressful time. With the summer term fast

:39:58. > :40:00.approaching the BBC is launching a new way of helping pupils

:40:01. > :40:03.cope with the pressure. Called the Mind Set,

:40:04. > :40:06.it offers tips and tricks from 12 student coaches who have

:40:07. > :40:08.recently been there. We'll speak to three of them

:40:09. > :40:25.in a moment but here's a look Talk to your friends or parents.

:40:26. > :40:29.They will want what is best to you. Tell them your concerns or talk to

:40:30. > :40:32.friends and get advice from them. Because they properly went through

:40:33. > :40:36.the same thing and might have come through it. When I realised that my

:40:37. > :40:39.worrying are stressing was getting out of hand, realise they needed to

:40:40. > :40:43.confide in somebody. So immediately went to my parents because they knew

:40:44. > :40:56.I could talk to them. So every night, even if it was what I thought

:40:57. > :40:59.was a series worry or something small, about it, and it is

:41:00. > :41:03.surprising how much better you would feel after speaking to some of it.

:41:04. > :41:06.-- silly. To know that your friends can connect to a certain situation

:41:07. > :41:09.during this period is quite comforting. The maths teacher was

:41:10. > :41:13.quite good because I have been dire at Mass since I was no edge. She

:41:14. > :41:18.helped me by saying that all they needed to do was passed. And I could

:41:19. > :41:22.get it over with. -- bad at maths. It is a stressful time. I know a lot

:41:23. > :41:26.of people will be going through it, and have gone through it.

:41:27. > :41:29.Joining us in the studio now are Dr Radha Modgil and student

:41:30. > :41:37.Let's's talk about it in a general way. We will go to some specifics in

:41:38. > :41:43.a moment, but let's talk about general things. Exams have always

:41:44. > :41:47.been stressful, have a? They have. A rise in anxiety and expectation, as

:41:48. > :41:51.well as competition is new. We are just catching up in terms of

:41:52. > :41:57.teaching people how to deal with pressure. I think we need to do a

:41:58. > :42:03.lot more about that. That is why this campaign is so fantastic. And

:42:04. > :42:07.you and you have all come through exams yourself. What was it likely

:42:08. > :42:12.you? How stressful did you find the whole process of revising and

:42:13. > :42:16.entered in the exams? It was very stressful. There is a lot of

:42:17. > :42:20.emphasis on what you don't know what you need to learn, and what I found

:42:21. > :42:24.was helpful was focusing on what you do know, because it is a time in

:42:25. > :42:27.your life where you are taking so much information. And all the GCSE

:42:28. > :42:32.students should all be proud about. And that will help you with stress.

:42:33. > :42:39.And you say you are stressed. Your stress. How did that affect... Poor

:42:40. > :42:45.you! How did it affect you and what help to? I struggled a lot with

:42:46. > :42:49.self-doubt is confidence. So I think that just are that I was doing well

:42:50. > :42:53.and doing OK and reminding myself that it was my journey not comparing

:42:54. > :43:02.myself to others. So it is for me and my GCSEs. There is so much

:43:03. > :43:07.chatter. You can do the exam and asked how people dead. What did you

:43:08. > :43:12.do about that? After exams, I would not say because you need to stay

:43:13. > :43:16.with a small stress as possible. Citing not talking to others about

:43:17. > :43:20.it and stressing is about more is the best thing to do. Because after

:43:21. > :43:25.exams, there is a view can do, there is nothing good about talk about it.

:43:26. > :43:29.Once you have done it, you just let it out. That is what I used to do.

:43:30. > :43:32.People start asking questions about what you did, and your confidence is

:43:33. > :43:38.shot. Are there any other techniques that you advise, now, being people

:43:39. > :43:44.have gone through a? Some people might be worried about an hour with

:43:45. > :43:48.them coming up. I was great about it now, as I started revising December.

:43:49. > :43:54.I think that is the best advice can give. Start early so you are not

:43:55. > :43:59.stressed at the end so there is not loads of the last point. Is yourself

:44:00. > :44:03.into it, not all at once. It can feel overwhelming, the sheer scale

:44:04. > :44:08.of it all. So how do you advise people to deal with that sort of

:44:09. > :44:12.sense? I think the main thing to do is to tell somebody haler feeling.

:44:13. > :44:15.And for those parents and teachers to listen and to make sure that they

:44:16. > :44:20.are taking seriously. We'll know what it feels like when pressure

:44:21. > :44:25.become stress. So talk about it, work out practical ways, as well, to

:44:26. > :44:29.deal with revision timetables, things like that. Also they are

:44:30. > :44:33.looking at exercise and well-being, having brakes, listening to music.

:44:34. > :44:37.All of these tips and tricks are really important to keep you happy.

:44:38. > :44:41.Because it is a long road on the way to exam. You start preparing very

:44:42. > :44:46.early. You need to keep their reserve in the tech. It is a balance

:44:47. > :44:54.between getting the pressure right. On the one hand, it is just a piece

:44:55. > :44:57.of paper, but at the centre, it feels very important. And if you

:44:58. > :45:00.validate, it can cause issues. Is that they sort of stress process you

:45:01. > :45:05.feel yourself dealing with? Definitely. I was under a lot of

:45:06. > :45:10.pressure. I was considered the student who is going to do really

:45:11. > :45:15.well. Were you the head girl as well? I was. Even when people were

:45:16. > :45:19.very lovely and helpful, I put a lot of pressure on myself. And wherever

:45:20. > :45:25.the pressure is coming from, the most important thing is to tap into

:45:26. > :45:28.why you want to do well. And if that is not something which has a

:45:29. > :45:32.relationship with what you're doing, it not that pressure. Just focus on

:45:33. > :45:39.the pressure that comes from you and use that to drive you.

:45:40. > :45:45.What about taking breaks? That was important because you find a balance

:45:46. > :45:49.between work and social life. Don't isolate yourself and your friends

:45:50. > :45:55.because they are important. And they are going through the same thing.

:45:56. > :46:03.Did you take breaks? I did. I was able to go hang out with my friends

:46:04. > :46:13.for an hour. Are used that to motivate me to study hard. Spread it

:46:14. > :46:18.out. --I used. Something strikes me about always being attached to

:46:19. > :46:22.mobile phones and incoming messages on social media. What did you do

:46:23. > :46:30.with that? I turned my phone off. I knew I would get distracted. Put it

:46:31. > :46:37.in the cupboard. Really what about you? I would have a cheeky look. You

:46:38. > :46:43.have to have your own approach. Every time I sat the exam, the first

:46:44. > :46:52.hour, I would just organise my desk. Do you do that? Put all your pens in

:46:53. > :46:57.line. Good advice. Thank you very much indeed. If you want to find out

:46:58. > :47:04.more about how to keep calm during the exam period, go to

:47:05. > :47:10.bbc.com/mindset. Good advice. And now for the weather. Good morning.

:47:11. > :47:13.Good morning. A mixture this morning of sunshine, bright spells, and

:47:14. > :47:17.showers. Also some rain in the forecast. That is because of an area

:47:18. > :47:22.of low pressure coming in from south-west England bringing rain,

:47:23. > :47:27.but also strong wind. The placement is important because it has gone

:47:28. > :47:35.south. The root of the storm is affecting France. In fact, off the

:47:36. > :47:39.coast of Brittany, we had a gust of 90 miles an hour. It is a

:47:40. > :47:47.fast-moving storm. Later today, it would be down here. 80 miles an hour

:47:48. > :47:51.here. Back on our shores, what we're looking at today a mixture of bright

:47:52. > :47:55.spells, sunshine, and showers. The rain in the south continuing to push

:47:56. > :48:01.southwards. Wet in the Channel Islands this morning. Windy. It will

:48:02. > :48:03.give way to show later on eventually. Lots of showers later

:48:04. > :48:07.on, especially in the east. Through the afternoon, they will

:48:08. > :48:13.conglomerated in Northern Ireland with hill snow to boot. Hill snows

:48:14. > :48:20.year. Most of the showers in the east. Hit and miss. A weather front

:48:21. > :48:25.still plaguing this area. Northern England and the north-west, seeing

:48:26. > :48:29.the brightest skies. Prone to showers here in the Pennines.

:48:30. > :48:35.Heading to the Midlands and East Anglia and Kent. Not all of us will

:48:36. > :48:40.catch showers. Some will stay dry. Bright weather in southern counties.

:48:41. > :48:44.In the south-west, compared to the rain this morning, a much improved

:48:45. > :48:48.picture. Wales as well will have a mostly dry afternoon with just a few

:48:49. > :48:52.showers here and there. Through the evening and overnight, hanging on

:48:53. > :48:58.our lot of showers. Lots of dry weather as well. -- on to. Where it

:48:59. > :49:03.is cold enough, we could have some ice on untreated surfaces. Also some

:49:04. > :49:08.frost as well. Wind coming from every direction. Tomorrow we start

:49:09. > :49:12.off with a chilly note. Again, when we lose the showers in the east, dry

:49:13. > :49:16.and bright weather. Some fine china. The next weather fronts coming in

:49:17. > :49:19.from the Atlantic will introduce rain initially to south-west

:49:20. > :49:23.England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Ahead of that system, the

:49:24. > :49:28.cloud will build. Not until after dark that we will see the rain in

:49:29. > :49:35.the far east. Eastern areas hanging onto the sunken for the longest

:49:36. > :49:40.time. Another weather front going south just in time for Wednesday.

:49:41. > :49:45.So, when today's picture is looking quite messy. A fair bit of rain

:49:46. > :49:52.around at times. -- Wednesday's. The tale of that weather front still

:49:53. > :50:00.affecting Scotland. Breezy. High as 14. Thank you. Wednesday is messy.

:50:01. > :50:09.And what about for the Chancellor? On Wednesday, the Chancellor

:50:10. > :50:12.will unveil his financial plan for the country

:50:13. > :50:14.in his spring budget. This week on Breakfast we're looking

:50:15. > :50:17.at what it could mean Today's focus is on millennials,

:50:18. > :50:21.those born between the early 1980s Steph is at a catering firm

:50:22. > :50:28.just outside Aberdeen. Good morning. They are making her

:50:29. > :50:31.work. Good morning. That is not me. That is the expert hands of Nicole.

:50:32. > :50:38.Something mesmerising about watching things being chopped up, well, fruit

:50:39. > :50:44.and veg and things like that. This is a big catering firm. They employ

:50:45. > :50:47.a lot of people. Around one third of their staff are under the age of 30.

:50:48. > :50:53.They supplied the area. They will talk about how they feel about the

:50:54. > :51:01.economy and the budget on Wednesday. They are prepping 1500 meals here.

:51:02. > :51:06.So many businesses in the area are being served by them. It is

:51:07. > :51:10.certainly a busy business. I can talk to Shane, one of the apprentice

:51:11. > :51:14.is. Tell us what you have done here. I have been on a chef

:51:15. > :51:21.apprenticeships for three years. I am training us. You are only 19.

:51:22. > :51:29.Tell us about the things you are doing with money. I use it on my car

:51:30. > :51:36.or my pet. Insurance is going up every year. It is a struggle. You

:51:37. > :51:41.fork out a lot on your car. And you want to join the housing ladder is

:51:42. > :51:51.it is really expensive to buy a house to buy it this is an area that

:51:52. > :51:55.did well off the oil industry, but you feel it will be a while. It is

:51:56. > :51:59.really hard to buy a house. Good luck with the rest of your career.

:52:00. > :52:03.Housing is a big issue for Shane, but many people around the country

:52:04. > :52:05.as well. We went to meet some people in London to hear their thoughts on

:52:06. > :52:11.it. I live in Tottenham, north London,

:52:12. > :52:22.with my parents and my brother I live at home with

:52:23. > :52:27.my mum and sister. I live in Surrey and I am renting

:52:28. > :52:31.and lived with four other people. All this week, we will be getting

:52:32. > :52:40.a grip on what this generation wants If you are a millennial,

:52:41. > :52:45.you were born between 1981 and 2000. You are finishing education

:52:46. > :52:48.and making a start to your career. You have been most affected

:52:49. > :52:51.by the falling pay of recent years and are struggling to get

:52:52. > :52:54.onto the housing ladder and are suffering high

:52:55. > :52:56.rents as a result. Me and my sister share a room,

:52:57. > :53:02.which we have done all our lives. It is a bit like, OK,

:53:03. > :53:14.it is time to go. How does your mother

:53:15. > :53:19.feel about this? Until I am kicked out,

:53:20. > :53:24.I am going to have to stay there. None of their salaries can come

:53:25. > :53:27.remotely close to the six-figure Toby managed to move out of home,

:53:28. > :53:33.but only by moving out of the city. The aim for you is to

:53:34. > :53:35.own your own home? Like many of the people my age,

:53:36. > :53:42.I could get a deposit, I just am concerned

:53:43. > :53:53.about economic stability. That is the big thing for to be

:53:54. > :53:56.especially with Brexit. I want the government to reassure me

:53:57. > :53:59.with something coming out now. What do they want from the budget

:54:00. > :54:02.on Wednesday exactly? Housebuilding, economic

:54:03. > :54:03.security, and Brexit. So, this is what I want,

:54:04. > :54:06.affordable housing, and how I want the government to support

:54:07. > :54:13.young people so they don't have to move out of the city

:54:14. > :54:15.to make a living. So, Philip Hammond,

:54:16. > :54:19.if you are watching, millennials want housing,

:54:20. > :54:21.housing, and housing. And a new focus on a generation that

:54:22. > :54:37.largely feels left out. So, some thoughts there from some

:54:38. > :54:46.young people that we met. So more people to talk to. The founder of

:54:47. > :54:54.Young Money Blog. And one of the economists at NatWest. We heard some

:54:55. > :54:58.thoughts. Cars with Shane and housing too. It is interesting that

:54:59. > :55:01.he talked about car insurance. Many of the workers here have told us

:55:02. > :55:08.about the pressures they face. Many have had to get on their bike to get

:55:09. > :55:12.work. The equivalent is to get in the car. How can you do that when

:55:13. > :55:18.car insurance is into the thousands each year. Perhaps we need to

:55:19. > :55:23.rethink changes to the car insurance premium. And the rate which means

:55:24. > :55:27.people get more money if they are in a car accident and claim

:55:28. > :55:32.compensation but we have to pay more in insurance premiums. We have to

:55:33. > :55:36.address that the bite and wages as well. Absolutely. The national

:55:37. > :55:42.living wage at the moment, there is only a legal requirement to give

:55:43. > :55:46.that you over 35s. Perhaps we should rethink that and give the under 25s.

:55:47. > :55:54.They need help with wages to bite absolutely. Of we talk about the

:55:55. > :55:58.pressure on young people, but what about the pressure on the chance of

:55:59. > :56:02.it? He is under pressure. But we have good news. The economy will

:56:03. > :56:13.grow faster than it was 4-5 months ago. That means there will be more

:56:14. > :56:17.need to spend money. But as a country, we want the government to

:56:18. > :56:26.spend more money on public services than we paid with tax is. -- taxes.

:56:27. > :56:31.He will have to bring the deficit down. More tax and less spending.

:56:32. > :56:37.Interesting to see what happens in the next two days. You will stay

:56:38. > :00:00.with us to talk later on. First, the news, travel, and weather, where

:00:01. > :00:06.This is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:00:07. > :00:09.A new chapter for British car-making - the French company which owns

:00:10. > :00:11.Citroen and Peugeot seals a deal to buy Vauxhall.

:00:12. > :00:14.The 2 billion euro deal raises questions over the future of 4,000

:00:15. > :00:18.jobs at its Ellesmere Port and Luton plants and 30,000 more,

:00:19. > :00:45.Police launch a new campaign urging people to report suspicious activity

:00:46. > :00:51.North Korea launches four missiles towards the Sea of Japan.

:00:52. > :00:56.Tokyo calls it "a new stage of threat."

:00:57. > :00:59.On Wednesday, the Chancellor will unveil his last spring Budget.

:01:00. > :01:01.All this week on Breakfast, we're looking at what it means

:01:02. > :01:15.Today we are talking about millennial is, those born in the 80s

:01:16. > :01:18.and 90s was the I am at Obama in Aberdeen that they employ a lot of

:01:19. > :01:21.them define that what they think about the economy.

:01:22. > :01:23.What a weekend it's been for Britains Laura Muir!

:01:24. > :01:26.She claimed the 3000 metre title to add to her 1500 metre win

:01:27. > :01:27.at the European Indoor Athletics Championships.

:01:28. > :01:37.And this time she was allowed a victory lap.

:01:38. > :01:42.We are at a primary school which suffers from air pollution. The

:01:43. > :01:49.children have a clear message for drivers who do not switch off their

:01:50. > :01:54.engines. News on that and the rest of the weather from Carol. A chilly

:01:55. > :02:02.start all some of us with Frost. For most of us it would be a day of

:02:03. > :02:09.writes about, sunshine and showers. More details in 15 minutes. --

:02:10. > :02:13.bright spells. There's uncertainty for thousands

:02:14. > :02:17.of British car workers as a deal that will see Vauxhall sold

:02:18. > :02:20.to the French owners of Peugeot The French car giant PSA has agreed

:02:21. > :02:24.to buy General Motors European The deal includes Vauxhall's plants

:02:25. > :02:27.in Ellesmere Port and Luton, from where our reporter,

:02:28. > :02:45.Simon Clemison, joins us now. Good morning. There have Dean shifts

:02:46. > :02:49.changing over this morning I have been speaking to some of the

:07:19. > :07:22.seriously. What more can you talus? A lot of talk of tightening

:07:23. > :07:31.sanctions and something must be done. Every year, South Korea and

:07:32. > :07:36.the US have big military exercises. North Korea gets very angry about

:07:37. > :07:41.this and often looses off missiles. We do not know if this is different

:07:42. > :07:46.in that they are better missiles. North Korea is improving its

:07:47. > :07:52.technology. Last year, it launched a whole string of missiles, many of

:07:53. > :07:59.them doubts. Three of them appear to have gone a distance. It may be

:08:00. > :08:02.getting better but, is it getting better with better, different

:08:03. > :08:07.missiles, making progress towards having a nuclear strike capability

:08:08. > :08:10.on the US, or is it getting better with the same missiles it has used

:11:10. > :11:14.was not based on intelligence briefings but on suspicions he was

:11:23. > :11:27.there were no wiretaps. He is not only someone who worked for Barack

:11:28. > :11:34.Obama he also worked for George W Bush. He is seen as a nonpartisan

:11:35. > :11:42.and trusted figure. The FBI director James Komi, it has been reported,

:11:49. > :11:53.was a full is activation needs to be corrected. -- the Justice

:11:54. > :11:58.Department. That is a big slap down from the director of the FBI.

:11:59. > :12:00.Members of the public have made significant contributions to a third

:12:01. > :12:03.of the 100 most high risk ongoing terrorism investigations.

:12:04. > :12:05.That's according to Britain's most senior counter-terrorism officer,

:12:06. > :12:07.who says the public are key to keeping our streets safe.

:12:08. > :12:11.And Assistant commissioner Mark Rowley joins us now.

:12:12. > :12:18.Good morning. Thank you for talking to us today. So much to talk about.

:12:19. > :12:24.Let's start with the nature of the threat you'd think we are facing

:12:25. > :12:30.these days. It is broader than it has ever been before. When you look

:12:31. > :12:34.at the attacks on the continent, in Brussels and Paris, these were big,

:12:35. > :12:38.sophisticated attacks causing major loss of life. Through to some of the

:12:39. > :12:43.attacks which have been foiled or conducted on the continent where you

:12:44. > :12:51.have one individual radicalised who has a knife and wants to kill one or

:12:52. > :12:58.two people. We have to deal with all of those. While we are succeeding at

:12:59. > :13:02.the moment with 13 plots disrupted over the last four years, we need

:13:03. > :13:07.more information. What sort of information are you getting what are

:13:08. > :13:13.you looking for? How has it helped to thwart recent plots? The best

:13:14. > :13:19.place to start from is our work is like doing a jigsaw without all the

:13:20. > :13:23.pieces. Surveillance is not perfect. People use encrypted applications

:13:24. > :13:26.and it is a challenge. Sometimes a member of the public gives

:13:27. > :13:30.information which will start an investigation. Other times we

:13:31. > :13:34.already have an investigation under way and a give another piece to

:13:35. > :13:41.help. It may be someone in the cumin tea or who says someone's

:13:42. > :13:45.personality has changed and they are showing signs of radicalisation. All

:13:46. > :13:49.the way through to somebody you do not know, maybe where you work or go

:13:50. > :13:53.shopping and you see someone, in an area you know, where instinctively

:13:54. > :14:00.you'd think that is not quite right. That is what we want. Even know we

:14:01. > :14:05.are getting a lot of the public have a job to help us but they say they

:14:06. > :14:12.do not know how and not competent to do it. This appeal by pod and

:14:13. > :14:16.website information, all of that is about giving the public more

:14:17. > :14:21.information to ensure them about how we will treat the information. One

:14:22. > :14:26.concern you picked up on is that people are concerned they are

:14:27. > :14:31.wasting your time. It is a bit odd but I will not trouble anybody.

:14:32. > :14:37.We'll try to build up confidence. If your instinct says it is wrong,

:14:38. > :14:41.please call us. Even if it is not right, no one is going to throw away

:14:42. > :14:45.the key on a call. Sometimes got that call gives us the starting

:14:46. > :14:50.point for an operation about targets we do not know about. The idea

:14:51. > :14:54.you're working on 500 investigations and still requesting this

:14:55. > :15:02.information, those that mean that strategy is not working and you are

:15:03. > :15:06.not stopping radicalisation? In the last year or two, 150 people have

:15:07. > :15:11.shown signs of radicalisation, ambitions to travel to Syria and

:15:12. > :15:15.preventative work done by police, local authorities, the channel

:15:16. > :15:21.programme, they have been steered back onto a more sensible view of

:15:22. > :15:25.the world and have not travelled. Some of that information, if you

:15:26. > :15:29.spot someone early on on a path of radicalisation, it might be a young

:15:30. > :15:33.person who at a vulnerable point in their life is having their heads

:15:34. > :15:37.turned, the more it can be preventative rather than someone

:15:38. > :15:38.planning to do something awful being imprisoned for a long time, which is

:15:39. > :15:47.sad. Can you give us any figures? 150 people who have been looking to

:15:48. > :15:53.travel to Syria will be one part of it. We're, every month we're closing

:15:54. > :15:57.between about 50 and 70 cases where concern has been raised about an

:15:58. > :16:00.individual and police, local authorities and voluntary agencies

:16:01. > :16:04.have worked to try and steer them back on to a sensible course. That's

:16:05. > :16:07.fantastic results. You talked about the different levels of threat from

:16:08. > :16:12.a Paris-style attack to individuals. Let's deal with that sort of, the

:16:13. > :16:17.attack that happened at the Bataclan. Are you ready if that sort

:16:18. > :16:21.of thing was to happen here? Are officers ready for that sort of

:16:22. > :16:24.thing? We have done an immense amount to strengthen our ability to

:16:25. > :16:31.respond. You will see have lots of announcements. After that, we looked

:16:32. > :16:36.at that and worked with Government and they gave us extra money and

:16:37. > :16:42.we're trying firearms officers and that's the firearms officers who are

:16:43. > :16:45.on 24/7 and some of our more high grade specialists who can deal with

:16:46. > :16:48.the most difficult situations. I know you talked about this before,

:16:49. > :16:52.if that sort of thing were to happen, you talked about members of

:16:53. > :16:56.the public, you know, it is a very terrifying situation... Completely.

:16:57. > :17:00.What's your advice? On our website, there is information. It is run,

:17:01. > :17:11.hide, tell. We have seen information in the past where people might,

:17:12. > :17:15.where I am and then some someone in authority will tell me what to do.

:17:16. > :17:19.Run, get as far as away as possible and to the point where you can hide

:17:20. > :17:24.yourself safely and call the authorities, call the police. It is

:17:25. > :17:28.simple advice that's designed to be simple. We know it would work and it

:17:29. > :17:32.is based on analysing attacks across the world. Good to speak to you.

:17:33. > :17:42.Thank you very much indeed for your time this morning.

:17:43. > :17:48.It's 8. .17am. Let's find out what's happening with the weather.

:17:49. > :17:55.It has been raining steadily across the south-west of England. That is

:17:56. > :17:59.moving quite quickly across France and towards the Mediterranean and

:18:00. > :18:04.Italy, but we have had a gust of wind recorded off the coast of

:18:05. > :18:07.Brittany at 119mph. Nothing like that in south-west England, but it

:18:08. > :18:11.is blustery and you can see all the rain associated with it. Extending

:18:12. > :18:15.down into the Channel Islands where at the moment it is pretty wet. Now,

:18:16. > :18:19.it will remain so in the Channel Islands for a wee while yet and that

:18:20. > :18:23.rain will turn more showery and it will brighten up. That's certainly

:18:24. > :18:27.the case across south-west England. A lot of dry weather, but a fair few

:18:28. > :18:30.showers, more especially in eastern area, but later in Northern Ireland,

:18:31. > :18:34.we will start to see the showers line up and some of them will merge.

:18:35. > :18:39.Producing some rain at lower levels and snow with height. For Scotland,

:18:40. > :18:42.a lot of dry weather. A fair bit of sunshine, but there are a scattering

:18:43. > :18:49.of showers around. Wintry on the hills and still an old weather front

:18:50. > :18:52.playing the Northern Isles. North-east England seeing a few more

:18:53. > :18:55.showers and again the showers hit and miss wherever you are, but

:18:56. > :19:01.through parts of the Midlands and into East Anglia, Essex and into

:19:02. > :19:04.Kent, but in between them, it will be dry or bright and sunny skies.

:19:05. > :19:08.Variable amounts of cloud and sunshine and this morning's rain

:19:09. > :19:11.giving way to some showers, but still quite blustery. For Wales this

:19:12. > :19:16.afternoon, a beautiful afternoon with just a few showers. Through the

:19:17. > :19:20.evening and overnight, the showery outbreaks of rain will push across

:19:21. > :19:24.into western areas. We will have some in the east, but in between,

:19:25. > :19:26.there is a lot of dry weather. The wind coming at us from every

:19:27. > :19:30.direction, but not particularly strong and of course, where we've

:19:31. > :19:34.got damp surfaces and low temperatures there is the risk of

:19:35. > :19:37.ice on untreated surfaces and frost. Now, we've got the next system

:19:38. > :19:42.waiting in the wings for tomorrow and it's coming our way. So after a

:19:43. > :19:46.dry and bright start with sunshine here comes into the rain into

:19:47. > :19:50.south-west England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The cloud will

:19:51. > :19:55.build so it is eastern areas that will hang on to the sunshine and

:19:56. > :19:58.probably we won't see the rain until after dark. In the sunshine highs of

:19:59. > :20:03.11 Celsius will feel pleasant. Nothing special. If you're in the

:20:04. > :20:07.rain it's seven Celsius. So that system, you can see the two fronts

:20:08. > :20:10.continue to drift away, but we've got another one that's heading

:20:11. > :20:13.south-east wards and the tail end of it by the time we get to Thursday

:20:14. > :20:17.will take another swipe at the south-west. Let's deal with

:20:18. > :20:20.Wednesday first. We have got a weather front sinking south taking

:20:21. > :20:23.the rain with itment more rain and windier conditions in the north. In

:20:24. > :20:27.between, drier and brighter. A blustery day, but look at that, 14

:20:28. > :20:32.Celsius in London. Ten Celsius in glass gosmt that's more like it, Lou

:20:33. > :20:40.and Dan. Isn't it, indeed? Thank you Carol.

:20:41. > :20:50.It is 30 years since Britain's worst ferry disaster. Gavin Lee is there

:20:51. > :20:56.for us this morning. Good morning. What is happening there today? Just

:20:57. > :21:03.behind me, from this boat is the spot just ahead behind this harbour

:21:04. > :21:09.wall here where the Herald of Free Enterprise sank. It capsized and it

:21:10. > :21:15.was the most simple, careless and catastrophic mistake that the staff

:21:16. > :21:19.didn't shut the bow doors. The assistant, Mark Stanley was asleep

:21:20. > :21:24.he told an inquest later in his cabin. Thousands of tonnes of water

:21:25. > :21:29.went into the vehicle deck and within 90 seconds the ship had

:21:30. > :21:32.capsized and 30 years on, I'm on a Navy boat. This is part of the

:21:33. > :21:36.commemorations, but on this boat some of the families, some of the

:21:37. > :21:41.survivors, some of the rescuers as well are coming back to place

:21:42. > :21:46.flowers in the water at exactly the same spot. Let me bring in one of

:21:47. > :21:54.the rescuers. This is Daniel. You were one of the military divers that

:21:55. > :21:58.day. It is clearly, you know, 500 people on board, 193 people died.

:21:59. > :22:06.Can you tell me a bit about what you remember from that day being on the

:22:07. > :22:17.water? That day, I was on duty at home and the telephone rings and the

:22:18. > :22:33.officer said, "I and two other divers must go to Zeebrugge because

:22:34. > :22:37.a boat was sinking. We arrived here on another boat. You worked

:22:38. > :22:44.underwater for hours on end. Tell me about that. And you came across

:22:45. > :22:48.survivors as well. I rescued only dead people because I was not the

:22:49. > :22:56.first on board. The first was A commander. He was one of the first.

:22:57. > :23:00.He rescued ten, 20, maybe 30 people. Did you say there were three British

:23:01. > :23:07.lorry drivers in a cabin who were trapped thaw managed to get to? Yes.

:23:08. > :23:12.Tell me about that. That's true. That was 5am in the morning, I think

:23:13. > :23:18.so, but they were not underwater, they were in the cabin. They were in

:23:19. > :23:23.the cabin. We rescued them. You saved their lives? No, because they

:23:24. > :23:28.are not in the water. It was very cold for them, of course, but not in

:23:29. > :23:37.the water. Let me ask you, what does it mean for you to be back here

:23:38. > :23:48.today commemorating like this? They invite me and I don't say no out of

:23:49. > :23:54.respect to the people who died here. That's the reason I am coming. Thank

:23:55. > :23:58.you. Thank you for talking to us Daniel. There is a lot of people on

:23:59. > :24:01.this boat that are finding it really difficult, I have to say today and

:24:02. > :24:05.many people who have decided not to come today, it is such a difficult

:24:06. > :24:09.moment, but so many more say just to see the moment when the flowers are

:24:10. > :24:13.laid to pay their respects will be very powerful in a short while too.

:24:14. > :24:22.I'm sure it will be a very poignant day there today. Thank you, Gavin.

:24:23. > :24:25.More now on the ?1.9 billion deal that will see French company PSA buy

:24:26. > :24:29.The deal has huge implications for the 4,500 workers

:24:30. > :24:31.at Vauxhall's plants at Ellesmere Port and Luton.

:24:32. > :24:33.Joining us is Karel Williams, Professor of Accounting

:24:34. > :24:35.and Political Economy at Manchester Business School.

:24:36. > :24:41.Good morning to you. So first up, I suppose, you know, what do you

:24:42. > :24:46.think, right at the start for people going into work today at these

:24:47. > :24:51.plants, are they worried? Should they be concerned? Is this a good

:24:52. > :24:55.thing? Well, they shouldn't worry about this year and next year, the

:24:56. > :25:03.big thing in the car industry is when they change over the models.

:25:04. > :25:06.The Astra is safe until 2020, the Vivara until 2025, but there is a

:25:07. > :25:10.big question and this increases the certainty about whether the models

:25:11. > :25:16.will be replaced. If you go back to PSA in the UK, and in 2007, that was

:25:17. > :25:20.about the run out of the 2006 and the new models going to be built

:25:21. > :25:24.elsewhere. And in addition to that, I suppose, when those contracts come

:25:25. > :25:28.to an end, there is broader concerns about the way the motor industry is

:25:29. > :25:34.developing and how we'll buy our cars in the future as well? Well, I

:25:35. > :25:37.think there are very large questions about autonomous cars, battery cars,

:25:38. > :25:41.changes in the whole business which will mean that car companies are

:25:42. > :25:47.competing with tech companies, but leave that to one side, I think

:25:48. > :25:50.someone like the CEO of PSA will be concerned to take cost out of the

:25:51. > :25:57.operation, will be concerned to close plants and I think if you add

:25:58. > :26:01.Brexit to the mix, that's another complication because Luton and

:26:02. > :26:04.Ellesmere, like the rest of the British industry, are importing most

:26:05. > :26:09.of their components and exporting most of their output. And that could

:26:10. > :26:16.have, are you saying cost implications? Well, I think, I think

:26:17. > :26:19.this is probably a more important point beyond Luton and Ellesmere

:26:20. > :26:24.Port. If you look at the industry as a whole, 60% of the components are

:26:25. > :26:32.imported. 80% of the output is exported. Mainly to Europe. And any

:26:33. > :26:36.kind of customs friction in that movement is going to greatly

:26:37. > :26:39.complicate things and make the industry much more nervous. What

:26:40. > :26:44.does this mean for the rest of the car industry in the UK? If they're

:26:45. > :26:49.worried here, I know it might be years down the line, how might that

:26:50. > :26:53.affect the rest of the industry? We need import substitution in

:26:54. > :27:04.components quickly. The Government has succeeded in pushing up count of

:27:05. > :27:11.cars from 36% to 41%, they need to have targets of 60% so they reduce

:27:12. > :27:12.the friction. That gives efficient plants the chance to compete on the

:27:13. > :27:16.basis of efficiency. It's time for the news,

:27:17. > :30:34.travel and weather where you are. I'll be back in half an hour

:30:35. > :30:43.with all the latest. Hello, this is Breakfast

:30:44. > :30:50.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. There's uncertainty for thousands

:30:51. > :30:53.of British car workers as a deal that will see Vauxhall sold

:30:54. > :30:56.to the French owners of Peugeot The French car giant PSA has agreed

:30:57. > :31:01.to buy General Motors European The deal includes Vauxhall's plants

:31:02. > :31:17.in Ellesmere Port and Luton. We can speak now to our business

:31:18. > :31:22.correspondent Joe Lynam. It sounds from the financial point of view, a

:31:23. > :31:27.huge deal. What does it mean for workers here? I have been watching

:31:28. > :31:32.the press conference between the bosses of PSA which owns Peugeot and

:31:33. > :31:38.Citroen and Mary Barra, the boss of General Motors. Let me quote you

:31:39. > :31:43.from Carlos Tavarez. He said we want to create a European Ultra motor

:31:44. > :31:49.champion and unleash the potential of Vauxhall and Opel and committed

:31:50. > :31:54.to the two iconic brands. Those are the words that the 4000 Vauxhall

:31:55. > :31:58.employees will welcome this morning. They were worried about their

:31:59. > :32:03.future. Their jobs are almost certainly safe until 2020. The boss

:32:04. > :32:07.of PSA has given those assurances, but next year, 2018, PSA will have

:32:08. > :32:13.to make a decision about where it will make the next generation of

:32:14. > :32:16.Vauxhall Astra. At the moment it is made in Ellesmere Port in

:32:17. > :32:22.Merseyside. Will that still be the case after 2020? We will not know

:32:23. > :32:29.until 2018. Britain will be in the throes of a massive negotiation with

:32:30. > :32:37.its 27 European partners about a future trade deal which could play a

:32:38. > :32:40.role in those talks. Thank you. Information from the public has

:32:41. > :32:44.helped police in a third of potential terror investigations.

:32:45. > :32:46.Security services have prevented 13 potential terror

:32:47. > :32:47.attacks since June 2013, the UK's most senior

:32:48. > :32:55.counter-terrorism police officer has revealed.

:32:56. > :32:57.North Korea has fired four missiles, three of which landed less

:32:58. > :33:00.than two hundred miles from the coast of Japan.

:33:01. > :33:02.The missiles appear to have been launched from a remote military

:33:03. > :33:06.South Korea's acting president has called it a serious provocation

:33:07. > :33:11.Talks are beginning in Belfast today aimed at forming

:33:12. > :33:15.The two largest parties, the Democratic Unionists

:33:16. > :33:20.and Sinn Fein, are still divided over a botched green energy scheme

:33:21. > :33:22.that led to the collapse of their previous administration.

:33:23. > :33:25.Sinn Fein say the DUP leader, Arlene Foster, can't be re-appointed

:33:26. > :33:36.as First Minister while her role in the scheme is being investigated.

:33:37. > :33:38.FBI director James Comey has rejected President Donald Trump's

:33:39. > :33:40.claim on Saturday that his predecessor, Barack Obama,

:33:41. > :33:49.Mr Comey reportedly asked the US justice department to reject

:33:50. > :33:51.the allegation that Mr Obama ordered a wiretap during last

:33:52. > :33:55.He is said to have asked for the correction because it

:33:56. > :34:03.falsely insinuates that the FBI broke the law.

:34:04. > :34:09.And coming up here on Breakfast this morning...

:34:10. > :34:12.We'll have more on the campaign to stop drivers leaving

:34:13. > :34:15.their engines idling when picking up their kids from school.

:34:16. > :34:18.They're the Toronto Wolfpack and they're Rugby League's first

:34:19. > :34:22.We'll talk to the club's owner about how he plans

:34:23. > :34:27.And after nine, we'll speak to the former teacher Simon Warr

:34:28. > :34:29.about his two-year fight to clear his name

:34:30. > :34:36.after he was accused of a crime he didn't commit.

:34:37. > :34:42.And Sally is here with all the sport.

:34:43. > :34:47.Morning. It has been a really busy weekend of sport. Lots to talk

:34:48. > :34:56.about. We will talk to Mr Tony Bellew in a moment.

:34:57. > :34:59.That was quite a fight on Saturday. He has broken his hand and David

:35:00. > :35:03.Haye ruptured his Achilles. That is a very important conversation coming

:35:04. > :35:06.up in a moment. We are going to start with Laura Muir.

:35:07. > :35:09.Laura Muir is certainly an athlete we'll be hearing a lot more

:35:10. > :35:13.She stormed to victory in Belgrade in a championship record time ahead

:35:14. > :35:15.of Turkey's Yasemin Can and compatriot Eilish McColgan.

:35:16. > :35:16.Muir's achievements matched those of Colin Jackson

:35:17. > :35:22.set in Paris 23 years ago, before she was even born.

:35:23. > :35:28.I didn't know what my legs were going to do today and I try to hang

:35:29. > :35:34.in there. I was feeling a bit tired but I was so glad to come away with

:35:35. > :35:41.that today. Did it go according to plan? The Turkish athlete is more of

:35:42. > :35:45.an endurance athlete, that worked well, I tagged onto her.

:35:46. > :35:48.And after her efforts to complete a victory lap on Saturday,

:35:49. > :35:51.she had a more relaxed time of it celebrating her 3000m success.

:35:52. > :35:56.No jobs-worth stewards around this time!

:35:57. > :35:58.Asha Philip is also celebrating gold, she pulled off a surprise,

:35:59. > :36:01.breaking the British record on her way to taking the 60 metres.

:36:02. > :36:08.It's her first individual medal at a major senior championships.

:36:09. > :36:17.Well done to her. I was so happy. I was not doubting

:36:18. > :36:21.myself. I knew I had it in me and I think the confidence got me through

:36:22. > :36:25.the race. Every time I got on the start line a false start happened

:36:26. > :36:29.and I thought, I have not got time for that in the final. There was a

:36:30. > :36:33.niggle, it was in my head. I said, do you know what, I'm just going to

:36:34. > :36:36.grow out there and do my best and I did.

:36:37. > :36:38.And Robbie Grabarz understandably said he was "over the moon"

:36:39. > :36:41.with a silver medal in the high jump - just six weeks after having

:36:42. > :36:45.an emergency operation to remove his appendix.

:36:46. > :36:46.England's cricketers are enjoying their Caribbean

:36:47. > :36:52.They've won twice in Antigua and now they are going to Barbados

:36:53. > :36:56.The West Indies chose to bat first in the second one-day international,

:36:57. > :36:59.but England bowled them out for just 225.

:37:00. > :37:02.In reply, they had some troubles, but Joe Root saw them home

:37:03. > :37:08.If you wanted to leave your job, you could do worse than following

:37:09. > :37:10.the example of Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez.

:37:11. > :37:12.He walked out of training, arguing with his teammates -

:37:13. > :37:20.and almost got in a fight with one of them.

:37:21. > :37:23.The Chilean is Arsenal's top goal scorer.

:37:24. > :37:25.He was left out of the starting line-up

:37:26. > :37:28.against Liverpool at the weekend by his manager Arsene Wenger.

:37:29. > :37:30.He said it was a tactical decision instead of saying

:37:31. > :37:43.I have almost no voice! I will continue, power on!

:37:44. > :37:45.BT sport will continue to show Champions League and Europa League

:37:46. > :37:52.The broadcaster is paying around ?394 million a year

:37:53. > :38:10.So there is nothing on terrestrial at all, not even highlights? It will

:38:11. > :38:15.all be on laptops and phones. If I am struggling with my voice,

:38:16. > :38:22.there is a man now who is struggling with injuries. Tony Bellew is linked

:38:23. > :38:27.with some huge fights. He caused a huge upset on Saturday

:38:28. > :38:33.night. He emerged victorious after his bout with David Haye. Tony

:38:34. > :38:39.Bellew joins us on the phone. How was the hand? Have you got a broken

:38:40. > :38:47.knuckle, a broken finger or a broken hand? It looks like a purple pillow

:38:48. > :38:51.at the moment. I have broken my hands four or five times before so I

:38:52. > :38:58.kind of know what it is. I am just in pain at the moment and it is what

:38:59. > :39:01.it is. The spoils of war. Tony, I have to ask you, I know you are

:39:02. > :39:10.supposed to be doing the school run this morning, how is that going? Mum

:39:11. > :39:14.is trying to get the last few bits together for them and I am just

:39:15. > :39:18.walking around in pain, to be honest, like a bit of a zombie! It

:39:19. > :39:22.is another day in the household, just doing what we do best and that

:39:23. > :39:27.is try our best to get the kids ready for school and get the last

:39:28. > :39:34.little bits together. Tony, how many more times can you do this? I don't

:39:35. > :39:45.know, I don't know. Not many, if at all.

:39:46. > :39:49.If at all? Might that have been your last fight? That is a possibility,

:39:50. > :39:52.yes. If they want to talk to me about having another fight, then I

:39:53. > :39:54.don't know, it will have to be something special because I will be

:39:55. > :39:59.honest, I can't keep doing this to my family and my body. I am in a lot

:40:00. > :40:08.of pain. Hand is broken again and cuts on the face. I am just in a

:40:09. > :40:13.world of pain, I really, really an. -- am. And for my family, it is not

:40:14. > :40:20.fair. I will take time to reflect at the weekend. I have beaten a

:40:21. > :40:27.monster. There is not a heavyweight champion in the world right now that

:40:28. > :40:32.has David Haye on their record. No one has beaten a man of the calibre

:40:33. > :40:41.of David Haye. He is the bogeyman of the heavyweight division, though one

:40:42. > :40:53.wanted to face him. Tony, you have mentioned your family, how affected

:40:54. > :40:59.your family by all the talk? Do you regret any of the chat? It got so

:41:00. > :41:06.nasty. I said no nasty words or any horrible, nasty things. I left that

:41:07. > :41:10.to him. I told him a few home truths. I said when the going gets

:41:11. > :41:14.tough he was going to spew it. I said, are you prepared for a walk?

:41:15. > :41:20.All of the things I said came to fruition. I said he would tire, I

:41:21. > :41:28.took his best and do you know what, I gave it back. He said it all in

:41:29. > :41:34.the ring after the fight. He was not good enough. He did not expect what

:41:35. > :41:38.I was going to bring. He looked at the video tapes of me and he

:41:39. > :41:42.underestimated me like they all do. They see the fat guy and they think

:41:43. > :41:47.they are going to walk right through and they are always wrong. Tony,

:41:48. > :41:52.would you fight him again? I don't know. I just hope he gets healthy as

:41:53. > :42:05.soon as possible. I am going to take some time at heel and recover and

:42:06. > :42:07.spend time with my family. I am not sure about doing this any more. I

:42:08. > :42:11.will be totally honest, I'm not sure my body can deal with it. I have far

:42:12. > :42:13.exceeded what I set out to do in this business, in this game, I

:42:14. > :42:17.really have. It will take something special to draw me back out. I'm

:42:18. > :42:21.being totally honest now. Tony, it has been fantastic to talk to this

:42:22. > :42:27.morning. Good luck with the school run, good luck with your recovery.

:42:28. > :42:33.Thank you very much. I really appreciate it. Everyone who watched

:42:34. > :42:40.and listened on Saturday, I cannot thank you enough. Tony, lovely to

:42:41. > :42:46.talk to you. Take care. And thank you to Tracy who brought

:42:47. > :42:53.on some water for you! He does sound exhausted and broken.

:42:54. > :42:58.You would be. The build-up for that fight was horrible at times. They

:42:59. > :43:01.have got to sell it. He was involved as much as David Haye in the billing

:43:02. > :43:06.of the fight and most people thought it would not last as long as it did.

:43:07. > :43:09.In a lot of ways it did live up to expectations because it could have

:43:10. > :43:15.been over superfast. Interesting that he sent his kids away. And the

:43:16. > :43:23.big decision about whether he will fight David Haye again. He sounds

:43:24. > :43:30.weary. Thank you, Sally. Go and have a good cough!

:43:31. > :43:35.Nine out of ten of us across the globe are breathing polluted air.

:43:36. > :43:40.This week on breakfast we are taking an in-depth look about what we can

:43:41. > :43:44.do about it. Today we are looking at pollution caused by cars keeping

:43:45. > :43:48.their engines on while they are parked or waiting in traffic. It is

:43:49. > :43:54.called idling. John Maguire is at a school in east London where they are

:43:55. > :43:58.trying to tackle the issue. Good morning, Louise. We are with the

:43:59. > :44:03.children from the school who have made posters to try and persuade

:44:04. > :44:09.drivers to switch their engines. What they want drivers to do is...

:44:10. > :44:13.Stop idling! It gets louder every time we do that! This is one of the

:44:14. > :44:18.most polluted areas in the City of London and across the UK. It is a

:44:19. > :44:22.real issue. We are outside the school gates. Traffic is starting to

:44:23. > :44:29.build up. The children's message needs to be loud and clear because

:44:30. > :44:31.they are amongst the most at risk groups.

:44:32. > :44:33.What do you think those dark patches are?

:44:34. > :44:36.From schools in Birmingham, to Port Talbot...

:44:37. > :44:40.We are looking at where we will plant trees in the school to help

:44:41. > :44:46.Many people have issues because of the things

:44:47. > :44:51.There is a quiet revolution under way, and it sounds like this.

:44:52. > :44:57.In the name of science, Will has agreed to be

:44:58. > :45:06.Using highly sophisticated tech, we can analyse the pollution.

:45:07. > :45:13.He will track pollution along his journey with his friends.

:45:14. > :45:15.And now we have a professor from the University of Leeds

:45:16. > :45:28.Normally when you are stuck in traffic, that is when the levels

:45:29. > :45:31.in the cabin of a car can get quite high.

:45:32. > :45:38.We have crossed some roads and you can see

:45:39. > :45:43.They have got a good route to school.

:45:44. > :45:50.At the school gates is where all the cars are parking and dropping

:45:51. > :45:53.We can see lots of spikes at that end.

:45:54. > :46:00.And that exposure to pollution over the route is mainly focused around

:46:01. > :46:06.So, basically we are asking people to turn off their engine

:46:07. > :46:18.It is yet another success for this anti-idling patrol.

:46:19. > :46:28.These volunteers in Islington have been trained in what to say

:46:29. > :46:31.to people to get them to turn off and to deal with some

:46:32. > :46:34.The councils say this is about local people cleaning

:46:35. > :46:37.Today it is about this street in this area trying

:46:38. > :46:39.to reduce pollution levels for pupils at school.

:46:40. > :46:42.So, just how much difference can switching off your engine make?

:46:43. > :46:45.Testing in one location saw that by stopping idling,

:46:46. > :46:51.The bigger message is that it helps people understand the impact

:46:52. > :46:54.of small actions on the kind of larger problem of air quality.

:46:55. > :46:59.I'm sorry to bother you, but your engine is running.

:47:00. > :47:10.In the past six years, as he went to work on his way

:47:11. > :47:12.to the theatre of London, actor Nigel Havers

:47:13. > :47:17.They wonder who I am and have said some pretty choice things to me.

:47:18. > :47:25.But generally speaking, people are aware and said, oh,

:47:26. > :47:31.This is a drop in the ocean, admittedly, or a particle

:47:32. > :47:33.in the air, if you liked, when compared to the global

:47:34. > :47:37.But new research shows how changing habits and switching off engines

:47:38. > :47:39.can make a difference in protecting our most

:47:40. > :47:58.Here they are, our most precious resource. "Think Of some easy

:47:59. > :48:04.solutions to stop pollution". I like this one as well, "Idling in line

:48:05. > :48:14.should be a crime! Children have also been writing letters to merit

:48:15. > :48:20.London Sadiq Khan. Dear Mr Khan, my name is velvet, I am one of the

:48:21. > :48:30.unfortunate souls who have been ignored but it stops now. It is

:48:31. > :48:37.mostly -- this pollution is mostly caused by fumes from idling. I

:48:38. > :48:41.believe that officers should be present to make sure that if I'd

:48:42. > :48:50.link takes place, a fine should be handed over to the driver. Tough

:48:51. > :48:53.stuff! Ray. I'm quite sure there is no pollution consequence that is

:48:54. > :48:59.worse than walking through a great Smoky missed completely outnumbered

:49:00. > :49:03.by colossal machines excreting floods of gas. Are you? Is there

:49:04. > :49:06.anything that exceeds this hairy hell?

:49:07. > :49:18.-- is there anything that exceeds this airy hell? Impressive stuff,

:49:19. > :49:22.Miss Baker. Definitely, they are year two and the year six children

:49:23. > :49:27.who have been working really hard and writing letters to the mayor and

:49:28. > :49:34.they would like things to change because of the pollution from

:49:35. > :49:40.idling. We talked earlier about the white sheets showing pollution on

:49:41. > :49:43.them. The year two children especially have been looking at the

:49:44. > :49:47.pollution in rush hour and looking at the amount of traffic on the

:49:48. > :49:51.roads during rush-hour and sometimes you can actually smell it or taste

:49:52. > :49:56.it in the back of your throat. Are we talking one or two days a year?

:49:57. > :50:00.It was just a normal day in February when we went out. There is quite

:50:01. > :50:05.often if you days in the year when we can smell it. Thank you. A

:50:06. > :50:11.headteacher here who was telling me that they receive a warning when the

:50:12. > :50:14.pollution levels reach a very high level and at that point they would

:50:15. > :50:18.keep the children indoors and stop them playing outside. The children

:50:19. > :50:25.have been fantastic, they have spoken well and there message has

:50:26. > :50:35.been very clear. They have one more message... Back to the studio! Give

:50:36. > :50:39.us a wave. STUDIO

:50:40. > :50:46.What a confident bunch of kids with their messages to the Mayor of

:50:47. > :50:47.London, very impressive. Carol, you have a thought on the pollution as

:50:48. > :50:59.well? Yes indeed. I'm no expert on air

:51:00. > :51:04.quality but the weather can affect it at times, the high pressure can

:51:05. > :51:08.act like a lead trapping the air pollution. When we have showers, you

:51:09. > :51:12.find that the air is rising and finding the shower clouds so the

:51:13. > :51:15.pollutants go higher up into the atmosphere. What we have got today

:51:16. > :51:19.is a mixture of sunshine and showers and this is a beautiful picture from

:51:20. > :51:24.County Down, sent in by one of our weather watchers. Another one here

:51:25. > :51:28.from South Gloucestershire, a pretty dull start to the day at this stage

:51:29. > :51:32.but look at this from West Yorkshire, lovely and sunny already.

:51:33. > :51:39.Sonny too in Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire. Sunshine and showers

:51:40. > :51:42.sums it up. Also this area of low pressure producing some rain across

:51:43. > :51:47.the South West England and the Channel Islands. Look at the isobars

:51:48. > :51:52.around it, it's pretty windy, more across France where they are going

:51:53. > :51:56.to have gales or severe gales today. Gusts of 119 mph and by about six

:51:57. > :52:02.o'clock, that will be down across Italy. What we have, you can see

:52:03. > :52:05.where we have had the showers across parts of central Scotland and

:52:06. > :52:10.England but it is this big lump of rain that is heavy currently across

:52:11. > :52:15.the Channel Islands. As we go through the day, it will clear the

:52:16. > :52:20.south-west and later on it will clear Northern Ireland and also the

:52:21. > :52:24.Channel Islands. We have got more rain coming in as well. Dry and

:52:25. > :52:28.bright weather too with some sunshine to look forward to but

:52:29. > :52:31.through the afternoon, the cloud continues to build across Northern

:52:32. > :52:37.Ireland and we see some showers and hill snow. Also a weather front

:52:38. > :52:43.plaguing the Northern Isles. Sunshine and showers sums it up

:52:44. > :52:48.quite nicely for the rest of the country. North-east England you are

:52:49. > :52:56.prone to see some of these showers. As is the way with showers, you

:52:57. > :52:58.don't always catch one. As we drift across the southern counties, a lot

:52:59. > :53:02.of dry and fine weather and sunshine, some sunny spells across

:53:03. > :53:06.the south-west, still quite blustery. In the Wales you might see

:53:07. > :53:09.the odd shower but for most it will actually be dried. Through this

:53:10. > :53:14.evening and overnight, what you're going to find is that we have quite

:53:15. > :53:18.a view showers around with the wind coming in every direction. It's

:53:19. > :53:24.going to be a chilly night as well, chilly enough for some frost and

:53:25. > :53:29.also the risk of ice. By the end of the night we have got another front

:53:30. > :53:33.coming our way. Tomorrow we start off on a chilly note but a fine one

:53:34. > :53:37.with some sunshine and then this rain edges in from the south-west,

:53:38. > :53:40.pushing eastwards but it won't actually get over to the Easter

:53:41. > :53:48.until later in the day. The cloud ahead of it will certainly build.

:53:49. > :53:53.The weather charts are having another wee strop!

:53:54. > :53:55.STUDIO Sorry about your charts, they are

:53:56. > :54:04.upset! In the run up to this Wednesday's

:54:05. > :54:06.Budget, here on Breakfast we're looking at how Britain's

:54:07. > :54:09.economy is working for This morning we're

:54:10. > :54:11.focusing on Millennials - Steph is just outside Aberdeen

:54:12. > :54:21.with the young workforce What are they up to now, Steph? Look

:54:22. > :54:25.at that for breakfast! It smells gorgeous here, they have been so

:54:26. > :54:31.busy, making something like 1500 meals here today. These are some of

:54:32. > :54:36.the guys who have been with me this morning. This is a business that

:54:37. > :54:40.employs lots of young people, around a third of the staff here are under

:54:41. > :54:43.30. I want you to come and meet Hayden, who I have been harassing

:54:44. > :54:51.all morning! You've been working here three years and you're 19? Yes,

:54:52. > :54:57.in August it will be three-year 's yeah. You're in the middle of an

:54:58. > :55:02.apprenticeship? Is it going OK? It's going great. It's something I've

:55:03. > :55:09.always wanted to do. For you, what are the kind of pressures, what are

:55:10. > :55:13.you spending money on? I've got my card to pay for, rent for the flat.

:55:14. > :55:20.It all tallies up, at the end of the day. What would help you, things

:55:21. > :55:27.like your car insurance being cheaper and fuel? Yes, if insurance

:55:28. > :55:30.could be cheaper, rent, but it is Aberdeen and you know how the market

:55:31. > :55:37.is up in Aberdeen, it is extortionate. How is renting going?

:55:38. > :55:43.You are two months in, are you managing to cope without your mum?

:55:44. > :55:49.I'm managing to cope without her so far! He mentioned about housing

:55:50. > :55:52.costs and that is something many young people are worried about

:55:53. > :55:57.across the country and even getting onto the property ladder itself. We

:55:58. > :55:59.went to meet for friends in London to see what their thoughts were on

:56:00. > :56:11.it. Let us introduce the millennial 's.

:56:12. > :56:21.Hi, my name is Abi, I'm 24 and I'm a freelancer. My name is Takyiwa, I

:56:22. > :56:28.currently live with my parents and brother and sister. I live at home

:56:29. > :56:29.with my parents and sister. My name is Toby, I'm currently renting with

:56:30. > :56:42.four other people. You are finishing your education and

:56:43. > :56:45.making a start to your career. You've been most affected by the

:56:46. > :56:47.falling pay of recent years and you're struggling to get onto the

:56:48. > :56:55.housing ladder and suffering high rents as a result. And so it is with

:56:56. > :56:59.our millennial 's. Me and my sister currently share a room and we have

:57:00. > :57:07.been sharing a room all our life. Your 24? Yes. It's a bit like, it's

:57:08. > :57:14.time to go! It's just not going to happen. How does your mum feel about

:57:15. > :57:19.it? Until I'm kicked out, I'm probably going to have to stay

:57:20. > :57:22.there! None of the salaries come remotely close to the 6-figure

:57:23. > :57:27.salaries required to just rent here. Tony has managed to move out of home

:57:28. > :57:33.but only by moving out of the city. The aim for you is to own your own

:57:34. > :57:36.home? I think I'm like a lot of people my age, I could probably get

:57:37. > :57:42.a deposit eventually but it will take a long time. It's more concerns

:57:43. > :57:47.about stability. Economic stability. That is the big thing for me.

:57:48. > :57:49.Especially with Brexit as well. I want to see something coming out of

:57:50. > :57:55.the government that is going to reassure me. So what do they want

:57:56. > :58:01.from Wednesday's budget? House-building, economic security

:58:02. > :58:08.and Brexit. How are they going to pay for it? Go after tax dodgers.

:58:09. > :58:13.Support young people. Put young people first and make housing

:58:14. > :58:18.affordable. So, Mr Hammond, if you're watching, our millennial 's

:58:19. > :58:25.want housing, housing and housing. Add a new focus on a generation

:58:26. > :58:31.that, largely, feels left out. With me now is Adam, who is from Shelter

:58:32. > :58:33.Scotland. We're talking about the pressure on young people with

:58:34. > :58:39.housing. What could the Chancellor do to help? I think the key thing is

:58:40. > :58:43.invest in delivering genuinely affordable homes for everyone. We

:58:44. > :58:47.know it can be done, it has been done in the past before and we know

:58:48. > :58:50.the cost to young people of not having their own homes is putting

:58:51. > :59:01.key parts of their lives on hold right now. Building more homes?

:59:02. > :59:07.Absolutely, supporting landlords to build homes of a range of types

:59:08. > :59:13.where people want to live. What would you say are the other issues

:59:14. > :59:17.that young people face? We had Aidan talking about courage Shorrocks at

:59:18. > :59:21.Reading. The cost of living and wages not being at that level

:59:22. > :59:26.Douzable the cost of living. There's also the issue of intergenerational

:59:27. > :59:30.fairness. We've seen a lot of spending on state pensions and

:59:31. > :59:33.Philip Hammond is committed to the so-called triple lock which

:59:34. > :59:37.guarantees the state pension at a pretty generous level and he said he

:59:38. > :59:40.will guarantee it for the life of this Parliament, but I wonder

:59:41. > :59:46.whether that needs to be rethought so that we make the budget there. If

:59:47. > :59:51.you're taking money away from the pension end of things, what would

:59:52. > :59:55.you do for young people? I think it would make it more fair in terms of

:59:56. > :59:58.young people inevitably having a much smaller state pension in the

:59:59. > :00:01.future, so I think they will be looking at those retiring today on a

:00:02. > :00:06.pretty generous state pension and saying, why are we funding that when

:00:07. > :00:12.we will perhaps to take a bigger cut in the future? I will be talking to

:00:13. > :00:16.some pensioners about that soon. Stephen, just tell is a bit about

:00:17. > :00:17.the macroeconomic picture because everybody wants something and

:00:18. > :00:26.whether that money come from? The economy is in decent enough

:00:27. > :00:29.shape. I think one of the things we will hear from the Chancellor

:00:30. > :00:33.tomorrow is there is a huge amount of uncertainty about just what will

:00:34. > :00:36.happen as we go through the process of leaving the European Union, and

:00:37. > :00:41.there are a lot of people who are concerned that the growth of the

:00:42. > :00:45.economy will slow down, the wages will not grow as fast. That is a big

:00:46. > :00:56.cautionary note for the Chancellor. And in Scotland there is a different

:00:57. > :00:59.deal in terms of budgets. What kind of deal to think -- difference does

:01:00. > :01:01.that make? Scotland set the budget a few weeks ago and that included

:01:02. > :01:06.positions about income tax. Scotland has a degree of autonomy but what

:01:07. > :01:10.Philip Hammond does on Wednesday is hugely important. He sets income tax

:01:11. > :01:14.rates and decides what will happen with corporation tax and VAT. What

:01:15. > :01:18.the government spends in the UK as a whole has knock-on effects for

:01:19. > :01:23.Scotland so it still matters here hugely. Thank you for your time this

:01:24. > :01:27.morning. We are in the right place for Brexit. I have to finish my

:01:28. > :01:31.stew. I have to say it smells delicious. We have all been staring

:01:32. > :01:37.at it all morning watching it cooking and wondering when are we

:01:38. > :01:41.going to get a bowl of this? See you later. Bring some in! When

:01:42. > :01:43.it is that huge it does not look that good but I am sure it will

:01:44. > :01:45.taste nice. Just some of the places you normally

:01:46. > :01:49.associate with Rugby League. Well now you can add in Toronto

:01:50. > :01:52.after the sport's first transatlantic team has made

:01:53. > :01:55.a successful start to its debut The Toronto Wolfpack

:01:56. > :02:01.is the brainchild of Eric Perez who joins us on the sofa this

:02:02. > :02:04.morning but before we talk to him, Now let's talk to Eric Perez,

:02:05. > :02:54.the founder of Toronto Wolfpack. So how did this idea even come

:02:55. > :02:57.about? Well, I was in Birmingham watching telly and I saw rugby

:02:58. > :03:02.league. Blown away by it. I just thought, why is this sport not in

:03:03. > :03:09.Canada so I decided to sail the seas of consequence and make it happen.

:03:10. > :03:14.How long ago was that? 2010. Said that quickly you have put the team

:03:15. > :03:22.together. It has been a whirlwind. Did anyone play rugby league in

:03:23. > :03:28.Canada? No, I brought rugby League Two Canada. We started a national

:03:29. > :03:34.team and started attracting 6000 7000 people a match. There was a

:03:35. > :03:38.television show and that culminated in getting this professional team

:03:39. > :03:42.started. What was it when you saw that in Birmingham that made you

:03:43. > :03:52.think, I have to get a hold on this? It is the most Canadian game which

:03:53. > :03:55.has never been in Canada. It has speed, finesse, hard-hitting, a

:03:56. > :04:00.bitter fighting once in awhile. That is what we like in Canada! We like

:04:01. > :04:04.action and skills. Is it taught in schools now as well? Yes, we are

:04:05. > :04:08.getting it in schools. It is inspired from the top level down.

:04:09. > :04:13.That is how things work in North America. If you have a strong

:04:14. > :04:21.professional game it inspires kids to get involved. Starting it in

:04:22. > :04:25.Canada is one thing, then to bring a team over here and start playing in

:04:26. > :04:29.domestic rugby and work towards Super League, that is completely

:04:30. > :04:33.different? Yes, it is the first transatlantic professional team. It

:04:34. > :04:37.is quite a heavy undertaking to say the least. Teams will be flying over

:04:38. > :04:40.to play in Toronto. It is something new, something exciting and

:04:41. > :04:45.different. We are looking forward to it. So when it is a home game the

:04:46. > :04:54.English teams have to play in Toronto?

:04:55. > :04:57.That is right. What fun! But some other players have been saying it is

:04:58. > :05:00.a long way to go and at the level you are playing at the moment most

:05:01. > :05:04.of the players are part-time so they might have to miss out on work at?

:05:05. > :05:09.In League 1, for sure. We are fully funding the operations will not cost

:05:10. > :05:12.the club is a penny to come over. And a free trip to Canada for a

:05:13. > :05:16.couple of days I think it is worth taking those couple of days off

:05:17. > :05:20.work. What is the ambition here? The ambition is to get to the Super

:05:21. > :05:24.League. The ambition is to walk out at Old Trafford, with the Toronto

:05:25. > :05:28.team, take the silverware home to Toronto and then in five or ten

:05:29. > :05:33.years have two or three more Canadian teams. You are incredibly

:05:34. > :05:38.driven, you have a five or ten year plan to win Super League?

:05:39. > :05:43.Absolutely. I think we can do it. We have Brian Noble, the BBC's own

:05:44. > :05:48.Brian Noble as the director of rugby, we have Paul Rowley who was

:05:49. > :05:57.the coach of the year, great coaching staff, fantastic players

:05:58. > :06:01.stop. That player scored his first ever career hat-trick against

:06:02. > :06:06.Scotland this weekend so that is pretty good. I bet he's good at a

:06:07. > :06:13.bit of biff? I would not want to cross in a dark alley, put it that.

:06:14. > :06:16.Maybe we will have you back in a few years' time when you have won the

:06:17. > :06:20.Super League. I will bring the trophy! Lets get some news, travel

:06:21. > :08:04.and weather. And Hello and welcome back. Thank you

:08:05. > :08:07.for watching. Imagine being put on trial for

:08:08. > :08:11.a serious crime you didn't commit. Well, that's what happened

:08:12. > :08:13.to our next guest, He spent nearly two years

:08:14. > :08:16.fighting to clear his name after he was wrongly accused

:08:17. > :08:19.of offences against children. He's now calling for changes

:08:20. > :08:28.to the way these cases are handled. I'm delighted to say he joins us now

:08:29. > :08:31.in the studio. Obviously, we need a bit of background on this. When did

:08:32. > :08:37.those allegations against you come out and how has it affected you over

:08:38. > :08:43.the years? When you say allegations, first of all the allegation was that

:08:44. > :08:48.after ADP lesson, I checked to see that this child who was 11 at the

:08:49. > :08:54.time, I checked to see that he was dry inappropriately -- after a PE

:08:55. > :08:59.lesson. That was the basis of it all. The very first thing I said

:09:00. > :09:05.when I was arrested is I have never taught a single lesson of PE in my

:09:06. > :09:09.career, secondly, I do not teach 11-year-olds. So in both counts I

:09:10. > :09:18.put doubt in the mind presumably of the officers in charge. What I would

:09:19. > :09:21.say is, I don't know why those two main facts were not checked before

:09:22. > :09:26.my homes were raided. Once that happens, and my name was published,

:09:27. > :09:33.in the media, radio, television, your life is never the same ever

:09:34. > :09:37.again. Once the cat is out of the bag, you cannot grab hold of the cat

:09:38. > :09:41.and stick it back in the bag. The cat is away and it will be free

:09:42. > :09:48.forever. My name was put into the public arena and I can only suppose

:09:49. > :09:51.hardly any investigative work had been done beforehand, because basic

:09:52. > :09:57.checks would have told the arresting officers that there is serious doubt

:09:58. > :10:06.about these allegations. And what then followed, I am shortening this,

:10:07. > :10:13.it was nearly two years? 672 days on bail. And went to a jury. They went

:10:14. > :10:16.out and came straight back in again. There was nothing to discuss. The

:10:17. > :10:21.fact of the matter is during the course of the trial which I think

:10:22. > :10:24.for anybody with an IQ above the day's temperature, would come across

:10:25. > :10:30.as an absolute farce. But the person and his best friend who came forward

:10:31. > :10:34.to give evidence, it was so ludicrous. It was ridiculous. What I

:10:35. > :10:37.am saying is, look, just because someone is found not guilty in a

:10:38. > :10:43.court of law does not mean to say they are not guilty. With that, we

:10:44. > :10:48.have enormous problems, there is a whole industry of child abuse

:10:49. > :10:54.happening as we speak. This is not an apology for child abusers. And I

:10:55. > :10:58.think of course the police have to be absolutely thorough when

:10:59. > :11:03.investigating any complaints. But if a jury goes out and come straight

:11:04. > :11:09.back in again, then I think there should be some sort of mechanism

:11:10. > :11:13.whereby the complainant's complaints I looked into. As far as I am

:11:14. > :11:22.concerned, the person and his friend who lied about me have slumped back

:11:23. > :11:26.with impunity... Because they had anonymity. No one knows their name.

:11:27. > :11:29.They have not been arrested or questioned. I know they lied and I

:11:30. > :11:34.don't know why something has not been done about it. The whole danger

:11:35. > :11:40.about talking about this is of course there are many people who are

:11:41. > :11:45.victims out there... I have just said that. Exactly. And they come

:11:46. > :11:50.under a lot of pressure to report it and no one wants to put them off, do

:11:51. > :11:57.they? But if you are telling the truth, I can tell you now, this is a

:11:58. > :12:02.particular type of crime. Nobody who is guilty of child abuse, even if it

:12:03. > :12:06.is historical has a hope in hell of getting away with it. The court

:12:07. > :12:10.system is rigorous. I went through it. And if I was guilty of the

:12:11. > :12:15.allegations that were put at my door, there is absolutely no doubt I

:12:16. > :12:18.would be found guilty. Have I been found not guilty because the jury

:12:19. > :12:31.were not sure, I am not suggesting that just because someone complains

:12:32. > :12:34.and the person they have complained about is found not guilty, that they

:12:35. > :12:36.should then be investigated. What I'm saying is there are certain

:12:37. > :12:39.cases, as was my own, where it is patent new lives. If someone has

:12:40. > :12:42.been abused, you have nothing to worry about. I am not trying to push

:12:43. > :12:45.you back in the shadows. What I am saying is people who lie about these

:12:46. > :12:50.things are damaging the cases of those who have been genuinely

:12:51. > :12:56.abused. Briefly, once those cases reach court they are public record,

:12:57. > :13:00.there cannot be anonymity? There is anonymity for the person who accused

:13:01. > :13:06.me, why can it not be anonymity for me? Once you found guilty then your
