This is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden.

:00:00.:00:10.

A damning verdict on the failure of big internet companies

:00:11.:00:14.

to effectively tackle illegal and inappropriate content.

:00:15.:00:20.

A committee of MPs says Facebook, Twitter, and Google should face

:00:21.:00:23.

harsh fines if material isn't removed quickly enough and pay

:00:24.:00:26.

for police investigations into potentially illegal posts.

:00:27.:00:45.

A man shot dead during an attempted burglary at his home in Dorset

:00:46.:00:54.

Police appeal for help to catch his killer.

:00:55.:00:59.

NHS leaders warn that the health-care system will soon be

:01:00.:01:02.

incapable of meeting patients' needs as they set out their wish-list

:01:03.:01:05.

Chelsea and Tottenham both win in the Premier League.

:01:06.:01:11.

There's still just four points between them.

:01:12.:01:16.

Do you ever ask to take home your left-overs

:01:17.:01:18.

So-called doggy bags are standard part of restaurant culture

:01:19.:01:22.

in the States, but they haven't really caught on here.

:01:23.:01:24.

We'll find out about a new scheme aiming to change that.

:01:25.:01:29.

And Carol is out and about with the weather. Hello. Good morning from

:01:30.:01:43.

Truckfest. 40,000 are expected to see some amazing vehicles.

:01:44.:01:51.

Everything is in here. Outside it is raining. The forecast is some bright

:01:52.:01:56.

spells, rain, and a few showers. Brightest skies in Scotland and

:01:57.:02:01.

Northern Ireland, especially in the west. I will have more details in

:02:02.:02:03.

about 15 minutes. Thank you. Social media companies

:02:04.:02:07.

are being accused of a "shameful" failure to tackle on-line terrorist

:02:08.:02:11.

propaganda and hate speech. A report by a group of MPs claims

:02:12.:02:13.

sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Google put more effort

:02:14.:02:16.

into protecting their profits than keeping the public

:02:17.:02:19.

safe on line. The Home Affairs Select Committee

:02:20.:02:21.

branded the firms' lack of action Twitter, Facebook, and Google. Big

:02:22.:02:24.

Jonathan Blake reports. Twitter, Facebook, and Google. Big

:02:25.:02:36.

brands and household names used by billions online every day. Accused

:02:37.:02:42.

again of doing nowhere near enough to tackle illegal, abusive, or

:02:43.:02:49.

extremist posts. I think the richest and biggest companies in the world

:02:50.:02:53.

have both the ability and responsibility to make sure that

:02:54.:02:56.

this kind of illegal and dangerous material is removed to be I don't

:02:57.:03:00.

think they are taking this seriously enough and they need to. The MP

:03:01.:03:10.

suggested this. They proposed this as well. That is similar to the

:03:11.:03:15.

model used in football where clubs pay for policing on match days. All

:03:16.:03:20.

three companies criticised in the report defended their approach to on

:03:21.:03:25.

line safety and say they are committed to doing more. Facebook,

:03:26.:03:29.

Twitter, and Google all have ways to report things we see on line which

:03:30.:03:33.

may be illegal or inappropriate. The report from the MP criticises those

:03:34.:03:38.

companies for relying too much in uses and says they are effectively

:03:39.:03:43.

outsourcing policing with zero expense. -- users. This is not the

:03:44.:03:49.

first time they have been criticised for this. They have to continue

:03:50.:03:53.

balancing a platform for free speech and stopping those who abuse it.

:03:54.:03:57.

Jonathan Blake, BBC News. We'll be discussing this with social

:03:58.:03:59.

media expert Luc Delany just A man killed during an attempted

:04:00.:04:02.

burglary at a house in Dorset has 61-year-old, Guy Hedger,

:04:03.:04:07.

was shot as intruders entered the property in the early

:04:08.:04:10.

hours of Sunday morning. Police cordoned off a quiet

:04:11.:04:23.

cul-de-sac which has now become a murder scene. Officers were first

:04:24.:04:27.

called here after 3am yesterday. There were three more intruders in

:04:28.:04:34.

the houses. Police believe that Guy Hedger did not know them, but they

:04:35.:04:39.

shot him dead. The offenders went into steel and they shot him. --

:04:40.:04:49.

steal. He tragically died in hospital. We have launched a murder

:04:50.:04:53.

enquiry and ask anyone with information to come forward to help

:04:54.:04:58.

us. A second person who lived in the house was there at the time. They

:04:59.:05:02.

said they were left deeply affected by what happened and are now being

:05:03.:05:05.

cared for by specially trained officers. Police say that the area

:05:06.:05:12.

will remain cordoned off and there will be patrols today to offer

:05:13.:05:16.

reassurance to the community. They want to hear from anyone who saw

:05:17.:05:19.

anything suspicious. The key question is, what led to the

:05:20.:05:25.

shooting, and why Guy Hedger lost his life. The hunt for the killers

:05:26.:05:29.

continued. BBC News. -- continues. The organisation representing NHS

:05:30.:05:35.

groups has called on political parties to commit to linking health

:05:36.:05:38.

spending to the growth The NHS Confederation also wants

:05:39.:05:40.

whoever forms the next government to set up an independent body

:05:41.:05:44.

to work out how much funding is needed to meet

:05:45.:05:47.

the needs of the NHS. Parliament is to be dissolved

later this week ahead of June's General Election,

:05:53.:05:55.

but campaigning by all sides This morning, a pledge from Labour

:05:56.:05:57.

to clamp down on bad landlords, with tougher fines for those

:05:58.:06:02.

who fail to provide safe housing. Let's find out more from our

:06:03.:06:05.

political correspondent, Leila Nathoo, who's

:06:06.:06:07.

in our London newsroom. What more can you tell us about

:06:08.:06:17.

these particular proposals from Labour? This is Labour going after

:06:18.:06:25.

generation Rent. There are a lot of people in that group, up to 11

:06:26.:06:28.

million. They want to give tenants more rights and punish bad landlords

:06:29.:06:33.

to keep property in bad condition. They want a legal minimum standard

:06:34.:06:42.

on renting, like getting rid of damp and pests and stuff like that. They

:06:43.:06:45.

want councils to bring in licensing and bringing fines for up to

:06:46.:06:52.

?100,000 for ignoring the rules. They say it is better to target the

:06:53.:06:58.

bad landlords than having a broad licensing scream. They say it will

:06:59.:07:04.

be borne by the tenants. And there are already powers to crack down on

:07:05.:07:08.

rogue landlords. Renters are a big group. It is a target for both main

:07:09.:07:15.

parties. Expect to hear more about housing when we see the manifestoes

:07:16.:07:19.

later this month. Leila Nathoo, thank you very much.

:07:20.:07:22.

Later, we'll be speaking to the Shadow Housing Minister John Healey.

:07:23.:07:30.

A man's died and a woman was seriously injured in separate

:07:31.:07:34.

incidents during a motocross and quad-biking event in County

:07:35.:07:37.

The rider was taken by air ambulance to hospital but died

:07:38.:07:40.

Later, a woman also had to be airlifted from the private meeting

:07:41.:07:44.

Police closed the event on safety grounds.

:07:45.:07:47.

Campaigning in the French presidential elections

:07:48.:07:48.

is entering its final week ahead of the vote on Sunday.

:07:49.:07:51.

Both candidates, the centrist, Emmanuel Macron, and his far-right

:07:52.:07:54.

opponent, Marine le Pen, will lead major rallies around

:07:55.:07:56.

Opinion polls taken since the first round of voting last week suggest

:07:57.:08:00.

The testing of primary school children, used to make important

:08:01.:08:06.

decisions about students, is damaging and should be reformed

:08:07.:08:09.

according to an influential group of MPs.

:08:10.:08:11.

The cross-party Education Select Committee says the way SATs results

:08:12.:08:14.

are used to judge schools, causes a negative impact

:08:15.:08:16.

Here's our education correspondent, Marc Ashdown.

:08:17.:08:29.

Even from a young age, children are well accustomed

:08:30.:08:37.

to being tested, but MPs are worried the importance placed nowadays

:08:38.:08:39.

on how children perform in isolated tests leads

:08:40.:08:42.

Results are used to judge schools in annual performance tables,

:08:43.:08:47.

which this Education Select Committee report has said can create

:08:48.:08:50.

a high-stakes environment, damaging to students and teachers.

:08:51.:08:56.

These Year 6 students are gearing up for their test.

:08:57.:09:00.

It is a good school in a challenging area of London.

:09:01.:09:03.

The reality is children at the age of ten or 11 are going to do

:09:04.:09:08.

an hour's test, which will evaluate their reading for four years.

:09:09.:09:12.

For us, as a school, it is high stakes too,

:09:13.:09:24.

As an alternative, a rolling three-year average

:09:25.:09:28.

Ofsted said it already looks for a broad curriculum.

:09:29.:09:41.

The Department for Education has said it will consider the report

:09:42.:09:44.

At least nine people are now confirmed to have died as tornados

:09:45.:09:50.

hit the US State of Texas over the weekend.

:09:51.:09:53.

More than 50 people in hospital according to local authorities.

:09:54.:09:55.

The American midwest has been struck by an intensive weather system that

:09:56.:09:58.

has caused damage across several states, including neighbouring

:09:59.:10:01.

Missouri and Oklahoma, which are now in a state of emergency.

:10:02.:10:08.

A chance discovery by a preschool child has saved a family of owls.

:10:09.:10:16.

Three large eggs were found in a bucket in a forest school near

:10:17.:10:22.

Winchester. At first, quite rightly, they were not sure what it was,

:10:23.:10:26.

until they saw that flying from the outdoor loo. They set up a camera

:10:27.:10:40.

and caught the father owl feeding them while the mother hatched the

:10:41.:10:45.

eggs. They have been named Twit and Twoo I see what they did there. So

:10:46.:10:50.

gorgeous. Testing your knowledge, what birds were they? I have no

:10:51.:10:56.

idea. Me either. Someone out there can tell us. Don't worry about it.

:10:57.:11:01.

Get in touch in all of the usual ways. Kat, do you know what kind of

:11:02.:11:15.

outlet was? A tawny, I would have said. Barn? Little? Snowy? Eagle?

:11:16.:11:20.

There are many types. Honestly, I was reading about Rod Stewart

:11:21.:11:28.

watching his son play. A real family affair. Starting off with the

:11:29.:11:35.

Premier League understandably because Chelsea, I think, overcame

:11:36.:11:39.

their last big hurdle. They have four more matches to go. By the

:11:40.:11:44.

rhino easy games in the Premier League. -- but there are no. Everton

:11:45.:11:55.

were the last big challenge. They brushed them aside yesterday.

:11:56.:11:58.

Antonio Conte was happy with that. They need to win three of their last

:11:59.:12:05.

four. Easy peasy. Good morning, everybody.

:12:06.:12:06.

Chelsea manager, Antonio Conte, says his side must become champions

:12:07.:12:09.

in order for a good season to become a "fantastic" one.

:12:10.:12:12.

The Blues showed showed title winning form with an impressive 3-0

:12:13.:12:15.

But second placed Spurs are keeping the pressure on the leaders.

:12:16.:12:34.

They're just four points behind Chelsea after beating Arsenal 2-0

:12:35.:12:37.

in the last derby at White Hart Lane.

:12:38.:12:39.

The victory means Spurs will finish above Arsenal for the first time

:12:40.:12:42.

Lewis Hamilton says he needs to recover his speed after losing

:12:43.:12:46.

ground to championship leader Sebastian Vettell

:12:47.:12:48.

The Briton finished fourth, while his Mercedes teammate

:12:49.:12:51.

Valtteri Bottas won his first ever F1 race.

:12:52.:13:00.

And after the first day of the World Championship Snooker

:13:01.:13:03.

final at the Crucible, John Higgins leads defending

:13:04.:13:05.

Selby won the final three frames last night to stay in touch.

:13:06.:13:09.

They will play to a conclusion today, it's the first to 18.

:13:10.:13:13.

It is a tight one. 10-7. It could go anywhere. Especially with Selby.

:13:14.:13:18.

Stay with us because we want to hear more about Rod Stewart. Especially

:13:19.:13:21.

the picture. Yesterday we were talking about all of the boxing

:13:22.:13:26.

fallout. It is still all over the papers. Lovely pictures. I will show

:13:27.:13:30.

you those in a few minutes' time. Carol. She is out looking to buy a

:13:31.:13:37.

car this morning. She is in Peterborough. Good morning. Some

:13:38.:13:45.

very large trucks. This gentleman knows all about them. What is

:13:46.:13:51.

happening behind us? Behind us at the moment you can see Swamp Thing,

:13:52.:13:56.

one of the most up-to-date monster trucks available. A full on raising

:13:57.:14:02.

monster truck like would see in America-- racing. He will show are

:14:03.:14:07.

some of the power it has and maybe we will crush some cars, my

:14:08.:14:16.

favourite thing to do at Truckfest. They will give passenger rides all

:14:17.:14:20.

day to people who come along. You can experience being in one of

:14:21.:14:26.

these. It is fantastic. Truckfest is my favourite event of the year. I

:14:27.:14:31.

have come here 20 years myself. I think it it has been going for 35.

:14:32.:14:37.

You can see amazing customised trucks. It is the biggest thing like

:14:38.:14:41.

this in Europe. It never ceases to amaze me how much of a family day

:14:42.:14:47.

out Truckfest will be. People of all ages are here, it is amazing. I

:14:48.:14:56.

think he crushed some cars. How many people are you expecting today? If

:14:57.:15:00.

we have a good turnout we can expect 40,000 people here today, an amazing

:15:01.:15:05.

thing in itself. It's not just in Peterborough, it's happening in

:15:06.:15:08.

other parts of the country? It's, like, eight different offence around

:15:09.:15:12.

the country, we go to everyone with the cruiser because we like to give

:15:13.:15:16.

people rides in the truck and give them the chance to experience that

:15:17.:15:20.

so its ever-growing, it gets bigger and bigger every year and it's great

:15:21.:15:26.

to be a part of it. Today is the last day, I hope it goes well, and

:15:27.:15:30.

the weather, although wet at the moment should improve. Thanks very

:15:31.:15:33.

much. It is raining in Peterborough this morning, but through the day

:15:34.:15:37.

the rain will ease. The warmest conditions today will be in the

:15:38.:15:41.

north-west, it will be wet as we come further south, so we're looking

:15:42.:15:45.

at a mixture of rain and showers but the rain we have at the moment

:15:46.:15:48.

continuing to weaken as it goes north. This morning at 9am, starting

:15:49.:15:53.

in Scotland, a lot of sunshine in the west and this is where we're

:15:54.:15:57.

going to see the highest temperatures today. In the east

:15:58.:16:00.

there is a bit more cloud around, but it is dry. Coming south into

:16:01.:16:05.

northern England, a little line of rain around 9am, not especially

:16:06.:16:10.

heavy, and although we will see brighter skies as we come further

:16:11.:16:14.

south at times we still have rain in the Midlands, East Anglia,

:16:15.:16:17.

south-east England and along southern counties. Into the

:16:18.:16:20.

south-west, we have had some heavy rain in Devon in particular

:16:21.:16:24.

overnight, about an inch, and that rain will tend to ease a touch as we

:16:25.:16:31.

go through the day, on and off, some extending into south-west Wales too

:16:32.:16:34.

but the rest of Wales will be largely dry to start an similar in

:16:35.:16:37.

Northern Ireland, bright start with sunny spells coming through. Through

:16:38.:16:43.

the morning all the rain in the south weakens as it goes north and

:16:44.:16:48.

also pushes eastwards across southern counties, it will turn more

:16:49.:16:51.

showery and we will see brighter skies in between. With the breeze

:16:52.:16:55.

coming in from the North Sea generally across eastern Scotland

:16:56.:16:59.

and also eastern England, it will feel cooler. The highs temperatures

:17:00.:17:02.

the further north and west you are, we could see approaching 20 in parts

:17:03.:17:07.

of north-west Scotland. Where we've got the clear skies by day and the

:17:08.:17:11.

higher temperatures by night, we also have clear skies and low

:17:12.:17:15.

temperatures, so cold in the night in parts of Scotland and Northern

:17:16.:17:18.

Ireland, still the cloud coming in across the east and we lose the

:17:19.:17:22.

showers across the south through the night, pulling away into the Channel

:17:23.:17:27.

Islands. Tomorrow, similar to today in that we will still see some of

:17:28.:17:31.

that cloud coming in from the North Sea across eastern counties of

:17:32.:17:35.

Scotland and England. It will break at times, brighter skies as we go

:17:36.:17:39.

further west, but the risk of showers anywhere across England and

:17:40.:17:43.

those showers in the Midlands will be drifting down towards the

:17:44.:17:46.

south-west through the cause of the day. As we head into Wednesday,

:17:47.:17:51.

again a bit more cloud at times, coming in from the east but more

:17:52.:17:54.

cloud in the south, bright skies with sunny intervals. Once again it

:17:55.:17:59.

is the north and west seeing the lion's share of the sunshine and

:18:00.:18:02.

also as a result the highs temperatures. All in all, after

:18:03.:18:06.

today's rain, things are settling down more and warming up, especially

:18:07.:18:08.

in the west. Carol, thank you very much. I'm

:18:09.:18:16.

interested in what is inside these things, they've got all sorts of

:18:17.:18:21.

kit, microwaves, fridges, beds, you could live in one of these? The one

:18:22.:18:29.

I was in at 6am was luxurious, like a 5-star hotel, a lovely bed, all

:18:30.:18:34.

the interior was leather upholstery, and a fridge, a microwave and a

:18:35.:18:39.

stonking big television as well! Good work. You could have stayed

:18:40.:18:43.

overnight if we if we had only known! Absolutely! More from Carol a

:18:44.:18:49.

little later. Thank you, we will see you soon. Live car crashing as well,

:18:50.:18:54.

how about that, what more do you want?

:18:55.:18:55.

You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:18:56.:18:56.

MPs have accused social media firms

:18:57.:18:59.

of a shameful failure to tackle jihadi propaganda

:19:00.:19:01.

A man shot dead by intruders at his home in Dorset has been named

:19:02.:19:06.

by police as 61-year-old Guy Hedger.

:19:07.:19:16.

On this bank holiday Monday morning, let's have a look at some of the

:19:17.:19:22.

newspapers and the Daily Telegraph is leading with our top story,

:19:23.:19:26.

Facebook must pay to police the Internet, proposals to make social

:19:27.:19:31.

media firms more responsible for the content they published and it's a

:19:32.:19:34.

big debate about whether these social media sites distribute

:19:35.:19:38.

content that other people, including ourselves, make, or whether they are

:19:39.:19:42.

publishers and they should be more responsible for the content that is

:19:43.:19:46.

on their site. There is a call for them being fined if they don't

:19:47.:19:50.

police it or remove offensive content within a set time period.

:19:51.:19:54.

That's on the front of the Telegraph today. That lead story is also the

:19:55.:19:58.

front page of the Times this morning at the bottom. They're also talking

:19:59.:20:02.

about Theresa May responding to those latest talks she's had with EU

:20:03.:20:07.

leaders concerning Brexit, saying she will walk away if there is no

:20:08.:20:11.

deal, which once again kind of ramps up all of the uncertainty around

:20:12.:20:17.

what exactly is going to happen. A great picture from the English

:20:18.:20:20.

national surfing Championships taking place in apparent course in

:20:21.:20:24.

Cornwall over the weekend. The front of the FT, Theresa May's interview

:20:25.:20:32.

with Andrew Marr yesterday, and interest-free credit cards a ticking

:20:33.:20:35.

timebomb according to bankers, there's too much debt and it could

:20:36.:20:40.

make a revenue scandal which hit Tesco and it is all about how the

:20:41.:20:46.

revenue on cards are accounted for, some cards have 43 months of

:20:47.:20:51.

interest-free and they don't know if customers can pay it back. The Daily

:20:52.:20:55.

Mirror has announced the return of Tony Blair, he stepped into the fray

:20:56.:20:59.

over the snap general election, saying he wants voters to support

:21:00.:21:05.

Labour. He isn't exactly a Corbyn Easter but he says Labour has the

:21:06.:21:13.

best chance of improving the country in the future and Anthony Joshua on

:21:14.:21:17.

the front and the back of the papers. He still owes his local

:21:18.:21:22.

launderette about ?150 apparently! That is a lot of washing, ?150! On

:21:23.:21:29.

From the EU referendum to the upcoming general election,

there's been a fair amount of ballot box action of late.

it doesn't make you wealthy. These good people of Bury and the rest of

the majority voted no. Are you voting? Already sent it off, postal.

:26:15.:26:21.

Sue and Albert voted yes. I would sooner have the money spent up here

by the people that are up here, they know how to spend it rather than

down south because London doesn't know what's going on up here

basically. We are totally two separate nations, the North and the

South. More power for up north, all good in your book? Yes. On May the

is the sweetest way to keep it to the race alive. No matter who wins,

:36:12.:36:18.

this will be a tough one for Spurs. They finish above their rivals for

the first time in two decades. We are so happy. For them it is

fantastic. For us as well. But I want to win the title. We will try.

That is what we want. - it is the hope during the season that makes

here's how the Briton responded to being described

the same house with the same family. You know, nothing changes. Do you

:38:13.:38:19.

know what I mean? Perception and reach changes, but the ground I am

on does not change. It is nice. It is amazing. But I am still a

fighter. I have to keep that mindset right now and keep my feet firmly on

will lead to rent rises. Joining us from our London newsroom

:40:38.:40:41.

is the shadow Housing Minister, A very good morning to you. What is

:40:42.:40:49.

wrong with the current system? It is quite simple. The law of the land

:40:50.:40:54.

has not caught up with how we live. One in five of us rent our home.

:40:55.:40:59.

That is one million families with children. And yet we have fewer

:41:00.:41:04.

rights renting a family home than we do buying a fridge or freezer. It is

:41:05.:41:10.

time to make sure councils and the law can clamp down on the very worst

:41:11.:41:14.

landlords, particularly people as renters and consumer rights. What

:41:15.:41:21.

would you like changed? A clear minimum force of legal standards so

:41:22.:41:30.

tenants don't have to suffer unsafe wiring, colds, damp, and sometimes

:41:31.:41:35.

dangerous homes. We would make sure that tenants, as consumers, have the

:41:36.:41:40.

consumer rights to be able to get landlords to fix problems. Then we

:41:41.:41:45.

give councils the ability to clamp down on the worst of the landlords.

:41:46.:41:50.

I want to see every private rental house fit to be called a home. You

:41:51.:41:55.

say the Tories are not doing enough and they have let this system get

:41:56.:42:00.

into such a state. But they brought in legislation to ban rogue

:42:01.:42:07.

landlords from renting out property is. Why are those proposals not

:42:08.:42:12.

enough? Not a single landlord has been banned. No legislation to stop

:42:13.:42:19.

these fees. The truth is, over years, we have seen them defend the

:42:20.:42:23.

status quo. They have ignored the common problems private renters

:42:24.:42:29.

have. And they refuse to step in to make sure we see basics set

:42:30.:42:35.

standards for homes we rent. They have to be free of vermin, they have

:42:36.:42:39.

to be free of serious damp, they have to be free of dangerous

:42:40.:42:45.

appliances and wiring. This is just not good enough in this day and age

:42:46.:42:49.

when we have so many families with children living and trying to build

:42:50.:42:54.

their lives in private rented homes. The underlying problem, is it not,

:42:55.:42:59.

is just a lack of housing in the first place. This applies to people

:43:00.:43:02.

trying to buy and get onto the housing ladder themselves. The

:43:03.:43:09.

answer is to build more houses so we are not reliant on poor quality

:43:10.:43:12.

housing. There is no simple answer in housing. It is true there is a 24

:43:13.:43:20.

year low in housebuilding. We need more genuinely affordable homes.

:43:21.:43:24.

Labour will set up plans to build more. We also have to fix the broken

:43:25.:43:30.

housing market. It is about private tenants and landlords making sure we

:43:31.:43:37.

have basic consumer rights like we have in any other market. So, the

:43:38.:43:43.

proposal to introduce more legislation, rules, regulations, on

:43:44.:43:45.

what landlords can offer, and finding those who don't offer the

:43:46.:43:51.

minimum standard. That washes up the cost. Will that cost not simply be

:43:52.:43:55.

pushed onto those who cannot afford rent? -- pushes. What we have seen

:43:56.:44:02.

in areas with both Labour and Conservative with licensing schemes

:44:03.:44:06.

is they are able to clamp down on the worst landlords and raise

:44:07.:44:12.

standards. They are very welcome, not just by the renters that may be

:44:13.:44:16.

exploited by the very worst landlords, but it helps lift the

:44:17.:44:23.

street. It is a no-brainer we have seen Conservative ministers turn

:44:24.:44:28.

away from helping renters. After many years of failure, it is clear

:44:29.:44:32.

they have no plan to fix the housing crisis. Thank you. John Healey.

microwave and a fridge in here but it is a fully customised to truck,

:45:34.:45:38.

it's not just a show truck, it works as well! It does eight miles to the

:45:39.:45:44.

gallon, it takes diesel and this particular one is done 1 million

:45:45.:45:48.

kilometres, you heard that right, 1 million, around 600,000 miles! I

:45:49.:45:53.

have to say it is much more luxurious than my house! It's also

:45:54.:45:58.

drier in here than outside, heavy rain at the moment in Peterborough

:45:59.:46:00.

at Truckfest. Through the morning what you will

:46:01.:46:06.

find is the rain will tend to ease and some will see showers. Today the

:46:07.:46:10.

brightest skies will be across north-western parts of the UK,

:46:11.:46:14.

particularly north-west Scotland, we can see temperatures today

:46:15.:46:20.

approaching 20 there. Let's start at 9am in Scotland, the west is best in

:46:21.:46:24.

terms of sunshine, a wee bit more cloud in the east, that will be

:46:25.:46:28.

there with us through the day. Also some light rain in northern England

:46:29.:46:32.

but as we come south, one or two brighter spells here and there but

:46:33.:46:36.

then we run into some rain again, the rain in East Anglia, the

:46:37.:46:39.

Midlands, parts of south-east England, the south coast and some

:46:40.:46:44.

heavy rain in Devon and Cornwall, heavy rain there overnight, up to an

:46:45.:46:49.

inch. Then in Wales, again we are seeing some rain this morning at 9am

:46:50.:46:54.

in southern parts of Wales, north Wales seeing something dry and

:46:55.:46:57.

brighter. In Northern Ireland we are back into brighter skies, and you

:46:58.:47:01.

are going to hang on to sunshine through the course of the day and

:47:02.:47:05.

temperatures will reflect that, especially during the afternoon.

:47:06.:47:09.

During the day you can see the breeze coming in off the North Sea,

:47:10.:47:14.

blowing in the cloud we see across Scotland but breaking up at times in

:47:15.:47:18.

parts of eastern England. Meanwhile our rain currently across the

:47:19.:47:22.

Midlands, East Anglia and Wales will move north into northern England,

:47:23.:47:25.

but a weak feature, in southern England and south Wales we will see

:47:26.:47:29.

further showers, some could be heavy and thundery but with sunny spells

:47:30.:47:33.

in between. Through the evening and overnight, where we have the clear

:47:34.:47:36.

skies by day we will have them by night, after a warm day, a cold

:47:37.:47:41.

night, so in western Scotland and in Northern Ireland. Still some cloud

:47:42.:47:45.

coming in through the North Sea across the east coast and the

:47:46.:47:49.

showers in the south tending to fade. Into tomorrow, again some of

:47:50.:47:54.

that cloud still rolling in from the east coast but once again it will

:47:55.:47:57.

break up and we will also see showers developing in parts of

:47:58.:48:01.

England and they will head towards south-west England, but the way with

:48:02.:48:05.

showers, a lot will miss them all together. If you're in the sunshine,

:48:06.:48:09.

the best of which in the north and west, while we are looking at the

:48:10.:48:13.

high teens are not as high as some other parts of the UK. On Wednesday,

:48:14.:48:19.

a bit more cloud, bright with sunny skies in southern parts of England

:48:20.:48:23.

but as we go further north, once again this is where the brighter

:48:24.:48:26.

skies will be an where we see the sunshine for the longest. But things

:48:27.:48:31.

after today things settling down and for most bar the odd shower it

:48:32.:48:33.

should remain fairly dry. It looks so lovely and snug in

:48:34.:48:41.

there, must be tempting getting up slow early as we do to have a little

:48:42.:48:45.

snooze on the couch behind you. Just feel the plush nurse! It is lovely!

:48:46.:48:52.

It is the last word, I tell you! Nice big cushions, padded at the

:48:53.:48:57.

back like a headboard, lovely. Dan is getting very excited, all sorts

:48:58.:49:03.

of interior design ideas -- then. There's no chance I would fit in

:49:04.:49:09.

that bed? You would have to put your legs around your head I think, Ben!

:49:10.:49:14.

Thank you, Carol! That's another story!

They're used for five billion journeys every year to shop,

:49:18.:49:20.

work or study, yet bus services outside of London are in crisis,

:49:21.:49:23.

Councils across England and Wales have cut their budgets

:49:24.:49:26.

by a third since 2010, affecting thousands of routes.

:49:27.:49:29.

And it's the young, the less well-off and those living in small

:49:30.:49:32.

towns and villages who are said to be

:49:33.:49:34.

Here's our transport correspondent, Richard Westcott.

:49:35.:49:43.

Time's running out for many of our buses. They carry three times more

:49:44.:49:50.

people than the trains but thousands of council subsidised routes have

:49:51.:49:59.

gone in recent years. This is the 267 late-night service from Bath to

:50:00.:50:03.

Froome. It's one of the services that is facing cuts across the

:50:04.:50:07.

country, and in fact come September the funding for this service is

:50:08.:50:11.

going to run out completely. Most of the passengers on this bus are

:50:12.:50:16.

young, like Holly, who works legs in a restaurant. And Josh, who goes to

:50:17.:50:21.

college in Bath. They can't afford to drive, catch the more expensive

:50:22.:50:27.

train or move house. It's a really, really big deal because you just

:50:28.:50:32.

can't find the same opportunities in a small town like Froome, so being

:50:33.:50:36.

able to travel daily and nightly back from Bath, it's really

:50:37.:50:41.

important to me being able to earn enough money to live independently.

:50:42.:50:44.

How much time have you got potentially going to college in

:50:45.:50:48.

Bath? Just under three years. How are you going to get there for the

:50:49.:50:52.

next three years? I don't know what I'm going to do. Bath and Somerset

:50:53.:50:56.

council says other authorities should help fund the service because

:50:57.:51:00.

the passengers come from different areas. First buses help keep it

:51:01.:51:05.

going for a few extra months but in reality unless a campaign can drum

:51:06.:51:09.

up more passengers, the late weeknight to 67s will go. It's a

:51:10.:51:15.

story reflected across much of England and Wales. Campaigners say

:51:16.:51:18.

nearly 3000 councils subsidised routes have been slimmed down or

:51:19.:51:24.

dropped since 2010. 500 of them last year when two thirds of local

:51:25.:51:31.

authorities cut their vast budget. First group run a fifth of the buses

:51:32.:51:35.

outside London, which is where these cuts are happening. We want to carry

:51:36.:51:40.

more customers, that is how we are successful. When we are criticised

:51:41.:51:45.

for bus cuts whenever we do take it hard, we only ever withdraw a

:51:46.:51:51.

service as a last resort. Often a service is being withdrawn because

:51:52.:51:54.

of reductions in local authority funding. Councils say years of cuts

:51:55.:51:58.

in government funding has forced them to ditch roots. A new buses

:51:59.:52:03.

bill will soon give them more powers to improve services, but back on the

:52:04.:52:09.

267, passengers know once their bust disappears, it almost never comes

:52:10.:52:12.

back. Richard Westcott, BBC News, Froome.

:52:13.:52:13.

If you're eating out, and you're so full you just can't

:52:14.:52:16.

I have never done this, have you? Yeah, pizza and courage. Definitely.

:52:17.:52:30.

How would you put curry in a bag? Carry the next day, loads of people

:52:31.:52:31.

do that -- and curry. A survey suggests two-fifths

:52:32.:52:34.

of people are reluctant to ask This is contributing

:52:35.:52:38.

to millions of tons of food Now restaurants in Scotland

:52:39.:52:41.

are taking part in a scheme to get people to take their

:52:42.:52:45.

unfinished meals home. Holly Hamilton has

:52:46.:52:47.

been to find out more. When it comes to dining out, we are

:52:48.:52:58.

spoilt for choice. And in an all super-sized era, portion sizes are

:52:59.:53:03.

getting bigger too. And yet even if we can't manage to finish everything

:53:04.:53:08.

on our plate, most of us are quite reluctant to have it boxed up and

:53:09.:53:12.

taken home with us, in other words a doggy bag. Do you mind if I get the

:53:13.:53:16.

rest to go? Thanks very much. In one survey while 75% said they would

:53:17.:53:23.

like a doggy bag, 42% said they would be too embarrassed to ask for

:53:24.:53:27.

one. Your conscious about the fact you might be looked upon

:53:28.:53:32.

differently. If you can't finish it you've paid for it so you have a

:53:33.:53:37.

choice of taking it home for you or your dog, that's sensible as far as

:53:38.:53:42.

I'm concerned. I have done it on numerous occasions and I have no

:53:43.:53:46.

problem doing it. It is so much waste, I have a small appetite, I

:53:47.:53:51.

enjoy good food but I would like to take it with me. I have no problem

:53:52.:53:56.

but look at my plate, it is always empty. In Scotland it could soon be

:53:57.:54:01.

the norm with plans to introduce doggy bags to all restaurants as

:54:02.:54:06.

part of a plan to cut food waste. Would you like it in a doggy bag?

:54:07.:54:10.

That would be great. Lots of restaurants already offer it, which

:54:11.:54:15.

is fantastic, what good to go does is extra promotion, you are actively

:54:16.:54:20.

offering a doggy bag. We did a pilot and pleased to say it was really

:54:21.:54:24.

positive and something restaurants told us they wanted and customers

:54:25.:54:29.

too said they wanted. And this is the problem, across the UK food

:54:30.:54:33.

waste costs the restaurant sector more than ?600 million a year with

:54:34.:54:37.

eateries producing nearly 200,000 tons. More than a third of that

:54:38.:54:42.

waste comes straight from the customers' plates. But it doesn't

:54:43.:54:47.

have to be this way, campaigners here say if restaurants routinely

:54:48.:54:50.

offered doggy bags it would save the equivalent of 800,000 meals going in

:54:51.:54:58.

the bin every year. I do think it's our responsibility to make sure

:54:59.:55:02.

people are aware of the fact it's OK to take food home and reheat it and

:55:03.:55:06.

it is fit for purpose. We're talking about a world that has a food crisis

:55:07.:55:10.

and we're wasting food. So people taking food home, we're just giving

:55:11.:55:13.

them that opportunity and actually intervening rather than waiting for

:55:14.:55:18.

them to ask makes a huge difference. Doggy bags are common practice in

:55:19.:55:21.

the US and even in France restaurants are legally obliged now

:55:22.:55:25.

to provide one if requested by diners, but here in the UK old

:55:26.:55:30.

habits die hard. As a nation we don't like to make a fuss, but with

:55:31.:55:34.

ambitious targets to cut food waste by 20% within the next ten years,

:55:35.:55:38.

maybe it's time to start thinking inside the box. Holly Hamilton, BBC

of big internet companies to effectively tackle illegal

and inappropriate content. A committee of MPs says Facebook,

Social media companies are being accused of a "shameful"

:01:57.:02:00.

failure to tackle on-line terrorist propaganda and hate speech.

:02:01.:02:03.

A report by a group of MPs claims sites like Facebook,

:02:04.:02:05.

Twitter, and Google put more effort into protecting their profits

:02:06.:02:08.

than keeping the public safe on line.

:02:09.:02:10.

The Home Affairs Select Committee branded the firms' lack of action

:02:11.:02:13.

as a "disgrace," as Jonathan Blake reports.

:02:14.:02:15.

Big brands and household names used by billions online every day,

:02:16.:02:19.

accused, again, of doing nowhere near enough to tackle illegal,

:02:20.:02:22.

I think both the richest and biggest companies in the world have both

:02:23.:02:36.

the ability and the responsibility to make sure that this kind

:02:37.:02:39.

of illegal and dangerous material is removed.

:02:40.:02:43.

I don't think they are taking this seriously enough and I think

:02:44.:02:46.

The MP suggested fines for social media companies that aren't removing

:02:47.:02:57.

They proposed they pay for policing as well.

:02:58.:03:03.

That is similar to the model used in football where clubs pay

:03:04.:03:06.

All three companies criticised in the report defended

:03:07.:03:10.

their approach to on-line safety and say they are committed

:03:11.:03:12.

Facebook, Twitter, and Google all have ways to report things

:03:13.:03:16.

we see on-line which may be illegal or inappropriate.

:03:17.:03:20.

But the MP's report criticises those companies for relying too much

:03:21.:03:23.

on users and says they are effectively outsourcing policing

:03:24.:03:25.

This is not the first time social media companies have been

:03:26.:03:40.

criticised for not stopping extremism and abuse.

:03:41.:03:42.

They have to continue balancing a platform for free speech

:03:43.:03:45.

We'll be discussing this with social media expert Luc Delany just

:03:46.:03:52.

A man killed during an attempted burglary at a house in Dorset has

:03:53.:03:56.

61-year-old, Guy Hedger, was shot as intruders entered

:03:57.:04:00.

the property in the early hours of Sunday morning.

:04:01.:04:02.

Police cordon off a quiet cul-de-sac that has now become a murder scene.

:04:03.:04:11.

Officers were first called here after three yesterday morning.

:04:12.:04:14.

There were three or more intruders in the house.

:04:15.:04:17.

Police believe that Guy Hedger did not know them,

:04:18.:04:20.

The offenders went in to steal and they shot him.

:04:21.:04:29.

We have since launched a murder enquiry and ask anyone

:04:30.:04:33.

with information to come forward to help us.

:04:34.:04:40.

A second person who lived in the house was there at the time.

:04:41.:04:45.

They said they were left deeply affected by what happened

:04:46.:04:51.

and are now being cared for by specially trained officers.

:04:52.:04:54.

Police say that the area will remain cordoned off and there will be

:04:55.:04:58.

high-visibility patrols today to offer reassurance

:04:59.:04:59.

They want to hear from anyone who saw anything suspicious.

:05:00.:05:03.

The key questions, what led to the shooting, and why Guy Hedger

:05:04.:05:07.

The organisation representing NHS groups has called on political

:05:08.:05:17.

parties to commit to linking health spending to the growth

:05:18.:05:20.

The NHS Confederation also wants whoever forms the next government

:05:21.:05:23.

to set up an independent body to work out how much funding

:05:24.:05:26.

is needed to meet the needs of the NHS.

:05:27.:05:29.

Our health editor, Hugh Pym, reports.

:05:30.:05:33.

The future funding of the NHS is on the political agenda. Election

:05:34.:05:40.

manifestoes should spell out where it parties stand. The confederation

:05:41.:05:48.

representing health groups in England, Wales, in Northern Ireland,

:05:49.:05:52.

has called for a commitment of GDP to be spent on health, as with

:05:53.:05:57.

defence and international aid. They note that UK health spending as a

:05:58.:06:02.

share of the economy is just under 10% is below that of France and

:06:03.:06:07.

Germany. The organisation has also called for an independent office to

:06:08.:06:10.

advise ministers on appropriate funding for the NHS. The

:06:11.:06:15.

confederation says political parties must recognise that without action

:06:16.:06:19.

soon, the health and care system will be incapable of meeting modern

:06:20.:06:20.

needs. Hugh Pym, BBC News. Parliament is to be dissolved

The testing of primary school children, used to make important

:09:29.:09:30.

decisions about students, is damaging and should be reformed

:09:31.:09:33.

according to an influential group of MPs.

:09:34.:09:35.

The cross-party Education Select Committee says the way SATs results

:09:36.:09:37.

are used to judge schools, causes a negative impact

:09:38.:09:40.

Here's our education correspondent, Marc Ashdown.

:09:41.:09:44.

Even from a young age, children are well accustomed

to being tested, but MPs are worried the importance placed nowadays

on how children perform in isolated tests leads

:09:53.:09:56.

which this Education Select Committee report has said can create

:09:57.:09:58.

a high-stakes environment, damaging to students and teachers.

:09:59.:10:00.

These Year 6 students are gearing up for their test.

:10:01.:10:04.

It is a good school in a challenging area of London.

:10:05.:10:16.

The reality is children at the age of 10 or 11 are going to do

:10:17.:10:20.

an hour's test, which will evaluate their reading for four years.

:10:21.:10:23.

For us, as a school, the results of that are also very

:10:24.:10:39.

high stakes, because it is how it is rated.

:10:40.:10:41.

As an alternative, a rolling three-year average

:10:42.:10:43.

Ofsted said it wants a broad curriculum.

:10:44.:10:52.

The Department for Education has said it will consider the report

:10:53.:10:56.

At least nine people are now confirmed to have died as tornados

:10:57.:11:06.

hit the US State of Texas over the weekend.

:11:07.:11:08.

More than 50 people in hospital according to local authorities.

:11:09.:11:11.

The American midwest has been struck by an intensive weather system that

:11:12.:11:14.

has caused damage across several states, including neighbouring

:11:15.:11:16.

Missouri and Oklahoma, which are now in a state of emergency.

:11:17.:11:26.

Some lovely pictures of some lovely, little owls to show you right now.

:11:27.:11:34.

A chance discovery by a preschool child has saved a family of owls.

:11:35.:11:37.

Three large eggs were found in a bucket in a forest

:11:38.:11:40.

At first, quite rightly, they were not sure what it was,

:11:41.:11:44.

until they saw that flying from the outdoor loo.

:11:45.:11:47.

They set up a camera and caught the father owl feeding them

:11:48.:11:50.

There it is. Teamwork, I like it. Baby eggs, sorry, baby owls.

:11:51.:12:02.

They have been named Twit and Twoo I see what they did there.

:12:03.:12:06.

We asked you early out what kind of owls they are. You didn't let us

:12:07.:12:20.

down. They are barn owls. A very cute story. Reliably informing us.

:12:21.:12:21.

Thank you as always. doing enough to remove illegal

:12:22.:12:27.

material from their sites? Well, not according

:12:28.:12:33.

to a new report by a group of MPs. Companies like Facebook, Twitter,

:12:34.:12:36.

and Google have been branded a "disgrace" by the Home

:12:37.:12:39.

Affairs Select Committee, for failing to tackle terrorist

:12:40.:12:41.

and hate crime propaganda. The sites have defended

:12:42.:12:43.

their approach to on line Luc Delany, former public policy

:12:44.:12:46.

director at Facebook and Google You have been in there. You have

:12:47.:12:59.

been in the thick of it. Describe to us how difficult it is to monitor

:13:00.:13:04.

all of this content and say what is appropriate, inappropriate, illegal.

:13:05.:13:09.

It is questionable whether companies should actually make the judgement

:13:10.:13:13.

of what is illegal. We have police and judges and courts decide that

:13:14.:13:17.

for us. We have to be careful to not ask companies to be judge, jury and

:13:18.:13:25.

executioner. Some would be concerned by that. YouTube has 300 hours worth

:13:26.:13:32.

of content uploaded per minute. Facebook has 1.9 billion people on

:13:33.:13:38.

the platform. Really, we need to have smart solutions to try to deal

:13:39.:13:43.

with the scale of Rocklands. Bullying, illegal content, no matter

:13:44.:13:49.

what it is. Does this come down to defining social media networks as

:13:50.:14:01.

publishers or contributors? They are putting things out in the public

:14:02.:14:04.

domain. But Google and Facebook might say that they are just

:14:05.:14:07.

allowing people to share information that is coming from the users

:14:08.:14:15.

themselves. That is right. It is defined in law. Platforms are not

:14:16.:14:19.

liable initially for content on their services. That makes sense if

:14:20.:14:24.

you think about it. Just as Facebook cannot be responsible for all of the

:14:25.:14:28.

content people put up, the post office cannot be responsible for

:14:29.:14:32.

every letter either. The system would break down. Editorial choices

:14:33.:14:36.

that are clearly pushed and published by the individual

:14:37.:14:40.

organisation have a lot more responsibility for the content under

:14:41.:14:45.

the law. Equally, you would say the flipside of that is these

:14:46.:14:49.

organisations are making a lot of money off the of that content that

:14:50.:14:53.

is created by users. If they are able to use it for good, for

:14:54.:14:58.

profits, they do what they want with it, they should also spend some to

:14:59.:15:01.

make sure things are not harmful. They do and you are right to be

:15:02.:15:07.

these companies have big pockets. -- right. But at a certain point, 2

:15:08.:15:12.

billion people on the platform, endless resources do not really need

:15:13.:15:17.

the need. There are some examples where the content has been so

:15:18.:15:20.

blatantly inappropriate and they have not reacted quickly enough. For

:15:21.:15:24.

example, the killing of the 74-year-old man in Cleveland in the

:15:25.:15:28.

US recently. A confession was put up. A complaint was made to

:15:29.:15:33.

Facebook. It took two hours to take that down. You are right. And the

:15:34.:15:38.

BBC was once looking at images of abuse on line. Facebook users were

:15:39.:15:44.

exchanging that material. Of the 100 cases reported, Facebook remove only

:15:45.:15:45.

18! There are some bad headlines that

:15:46.:15:55.

have hit the papers recently. This really looks at why those problems

:15:56.:15:59.

exist and how they exist and Facebook should come up with

:16:00.:16:05.

solutions. The report is using very inflammatory language, grabs

:16:06.:16:10.

headlines and bashes the tech companies but it doesn't look at the

:16:11.:16:17.

convexity of the issue. But this is terrorist propaganda and child abuse

:16:18.:16:21.

images, you have to use this language? The language they use has

:16:22.:16:26.

been going on for many years, we have a strong history in this

:16:27.:16:29.

country with the Internet Watch Foundation, with the centre for

:16:30.:16:36.

exploitation and online protection here, the language used around that

:16:37.:16:40.

I don't think reflects the reality of the work being done between the

:16:41.:16:44.

partnerships existing already between industry and the police.

:16:45.:16:48.

This report is divisive, it doesn't help and come up with any positive

:16:49.:16:53.

solutions. I want to talk about one solution and that's the proposal to

:16:54.:16:56.

create a fine system, something proposed in Germany, giving the

:16:57.:17:01.

sites noticed and if they don't take these things down within an allotted

:17:02.:17:04.

timeframe they would face a severe fine. Would that work? It's

:17:05.:17:12.

interesting to explore that but the problem is there is a presumption

:17:13.:17:16.

these companies should know and be able to easily identify what is

:17:17.:17:19.

illegal and do we want these American tech companies to be

:17:20.:17:23.

policing us? The comparison between police being paid for at football

:17:24.:17:29.

matches were 40,000 people come together, have one particular type

:17:30.:17:33.

of violent behaviour that they are renowned for, it's not the same as

:17:34.:17:37.

me checking my Instagram before I come on or having a policeman in my

:17:38.:17:41.

pocket and everything I do is monitored. These companies have a

:17:42.:17:46.

privacy obligation to consumers. There's a constant balance between

:17:47.:17:50.

protecting people, providing tools for reporting and their privacy,

:17:51.:17:54.

they have legal rights to privacy as well. Fascinating, we could talk so

:17:55.:17:59.

much more because it gets into the issue of the sites policing and

:18:00.:18:02.

keeping an eye on things and the idea of free speech. Time is against

:18:03.:18:07.

us but really good to talk to you. Thank you.

:18:08.:18:08.

Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather.

:18:09.:18:10.

Carol, what have you found this time? Is that view in that car? I

:18:11.:18:22.

wish! It's amazing, it is a stunt driver, look at this, oh my

:18:23.:18:26.

goodness, he has left this carbohydrate but he has been on the

:18:27.:18:31.

roof, he's coming to join us. I'm also joined by Colin Moore,

:18:32.:18:36.

Truckfest creator and organiser. Colin, what are we travelling on? A

:18:37.:18:40.

giant big wheeled American monster truck at the moment. Normally these

:18:41.:18:45.

monster trucks are used to crush cars but at Peterborough we use this

:18:46.:18:49.

specially converted one to give the public a right to see what it's

:18:50.:18:54.

really like, great fun! You actually set up this whole event many moons

:18:55.:19:00.

ago, why, what inspired you? Why not, people like trucks and there's

:19:01.:19:04.

a lot of truckers about in great region and it started as a

:19:05.:19:08.

Glastonbury for trucks and it has involved and this year we will have

:19:09.:19:12.

something like 35,000 here today, 3000 trucks and there's the fun

:19:13.:19:16.

aspect of trucking, they loved it and I love it too! Anyone coming

:19:17.:19:21.

down today, what can they expect to see? We can expect to see Terry

:19:22.:19:27.

Grant here doing some performances, monster crushing cars, and some of

:19:28.:19:30.

the most spectacular trucks in Britain. We've got some amazing

:19:31.:19:35.

trucks for the public to see. It's not just here, this is the first of

:19:36.:19:39.

the year, you do them around the country? We started here 35 years

:19:40.:19:44.

ago but we're doing them nationwide, we even do them from where you come

:19:45.:19:48.

from, Carol, in Scotland in August so we look forward to going up

:19:49.:19:52.

there. Scotland today will see the best of the weather, we should have

:19:53.:19:58.

been there because it is pouring buckets here but the mud is good for

:19:59.:20:02.

the stunt drivers. You're right but it will be good here. The weather

:20:03.:20:07.

will improve here, thank you for joining us, Colin! Talking of the

:20:08.:20:11.

weather, today we have a bit of a split because in the west,

:20:12.:20:14.

especially the north-west, it will be warm and we are looking at rain

:20:15.:20:18.

and showers in many other parts of the UK. If we start at 9am in

:20:19.:20:24.

Scotland, west is best, driest, sunniest and warmest. Eastern

:20:25.:20:27.

Scotland seeing a bit more cloud from the North Sea. Also by 9am we

:20:28.:20:32.

have light rain in northern England, south of that there are going to be

:20:33.:20:36.

bright spells but then we run into the rain we've had this morning in

:20:37.:20:40.

Peterborough. Again the rain weakening all the time, across the

:20:41.:20:43.

Midlands into used anger, the south-east, and as we drift further

:20:44.:20:47.

west to Devon and Cornwall where we have had rain overnight, that will

:20:48.:20:52.

begin to weaken -- East Anglia. Also extending to southern Wales. In

:20:53.:20:56.

north Wales it is a drier and brighter start and in Northern

:20:57.:21:00.

Ireland, back into sunnier skies and again a pleasant, dry and warm day

:21:01.:21:05.

for you. Talking of such things, through the course of the day we

:21:06.:21:08.

hang on to the sunshine across Western Scotland and Northern

:21:09.:21:12.

Ireland, cloud in over a wee bit in eastern island through the day. The

:21:13.:21:16.

rain we have currently in Wales, the Midlands and East Anglia moves north

:21:17.:21:22.

as a weakening feature, showery in nature and the same for the rain in

:21:23.:21:26.

Devon and Cornwall -- east Ireland. In southern areas we see further

:21:27.:21:30.

showers developing, some heavy and thundery, but sunshine in between. A

:21:31.:21:34.

breeze coming in from the North Sea. Temperatures approaching 20 in the

:21:35.:21:39.

north-west, and here's where we have the clear skies by night as well so

:21:40.:21:43.

after a warm day, a cold night. Still the cloud in eastern parts of

:21:44.:21:47.

the UK and the showers in the south overnight fading. Temperatures

:21:48.:21:53.

roughly 7-9 overnight. Tomorrow once again we are prone to seeing some of

:21:54.:21:57.

the cloud lapping in from the North Sea in eastern areas, it will break

:21:58.:22:01.

up and we will also see a fair bit of sunshine tomorrow but through the

:22:02.:22:05.

day further showers developing, especially across England, central

:22:06.:22:08.

England, and through the day they will wander to the south-west. But

:22:09.:22:12.

as is the way with showers, not everyone will see one. As we head

:22:13.:22:17.

into Wednesday, a bit more of the same, remaining fairly settled. More

:22:18.:22:20.

cloud in southern areas at times but a lot will be high cloud, so bright,

:22:21.:22:25.

sunny skies but the lion's share of the sunshine once again will be the

:22:26.:22:29.

further west you are, especially in the north-west with temperatures

:22:30.:22:34.

getting up to around 17. After the rain today, and isn't it typical,

:22:35.:22:38.

Ben and Rachel, typical we have rain on a bank holiday, things will

:22:39.:22:42.

settle down. We should have known it was going to rain and as everyone is

:22:43.:22:46.

back to work this week, the weather picks up a bit.

:22:47.:22:49.

To see a bit more driving later because I've seen better driving

:22:50.:22:55.

elsewhere than on that road behind you! Thanks very much and more from

:22:56.:22:57.

Carol a little bit later! From the EU referendum

:22:58.:22:59.

to the upcoming general election, there's been a fair amount

:23:00.:23:01.

of ballot box action of late. And later this week six English

:23:02.:23:04.

regions head to the polls Jayne McCubbin has been to Bury

:23:05.:23:07.

in Greater Manchester to find out. Any two for ?1, ladies,

:23:08.:23:13.

strawberries, raspeberries We're here with a question.

:23:14.:23:21.

Are we ready for May the fourth? This looks good,

:23:22.:23:25.

great sausages, Mark. May the fourth, general election?

:23:26.:23:31.

No. Yeah, election, yeah.

:23:32.:23:39.

Not the general election. You're not going to ask us

:23:40.:23:41.

politics questions, are you? Star Wars, May

:23:42.:23:45.

the Force be with you? They may need that Jedi Force to get

:23:46.:23:48.

them through the next few weeks. Before they vote for

:23:49.:23:52.

a new government, they've got Is it?

:23:53.:23:55.

Right! The Metro Mayors will have power

:23:56.:24:03.

over issues like transport, housing, skills, and

:24:04.:24:08.

in some areas, powers But over at the spuds and black

:24:09.:24:10.

pudding, there's a general Are you at all interested?

:24:11.:24:15.

Not one bit. We've had Brexit, we've

:24:16.:24:18.

had a general election, another one, and to be perfectly

:24:19.:24:20.

honest, lost the will to live. Economists believe that if it's

:24:21.:24:24.

cities which drive economic growth, London is the energy

:24:25.:24:31.

of the UK economy. The government wants to devolve more

:24:32.:24:35.

powers to the city regions Whether or not they're the right

:24:36.:24:38.

powers matched with the right money, It's about decisions being taken

:24:39.:24:46.

in Greater Manchester or Tees Valley or Liverpool that have previously

:24:47.:24:50.

been taken in London. It's a really big opportunity

:24:51.:24:53.

to create more jobs and put more money in the pockets of the people

:24:54.:24:56.

that live in these areas. I'm just not convinced they're

:24:57.:24:59.

getting enough cash. You know, if somebody gives you two

:25:00.:25:01.

bob and a conker year after year after year for 30 years,

:25:02.:25:05.

you will end up with a nice These good people of Bury

:25:06.:25:08.

and the rest of Greater Manchester were asked in 2012 if they

:25:09.:25:14.

wanted a Metro Mayor, Are you voting?

:25:15.:25:17.

I am, yeah. I'd sooner have the money spent up

:25:18.:25:19.

here by the people who need it up here, they know what's being spent

:25:20.:25:26.

rather than down south because London doesn't know what's

:25:27.:25:29.

going on up here basically. We are totally two separate nations,

:25:30.:25:32.

the North and the South. More power for up North,

:25:33.:25:35.

all good in your book? So on May the fourth

:25:36.:25:38.

they'll vote again. They hope their Metro Mayor

:25:39.:25:41.

will have the clout the London marathon course,

:25:42.:25:43.

raising thousands for charity Look at the effort that was

:25:44.:26:02.

required! Now Mr Gorilla has crawled his way

:26:03.:26:05.

to the Breakfast studio and he'll be on the sofa later telling

:26:06.:26:09.

us what inspired him. He is just outside. He is making his

:26:10.:26:16.

way across the bridge. He will be here in about an hour. We will be

:26:17.:26:20.

asking him if he has blisters. Creaky knees as well! We will be

:26:21.:26:24.

asking him about the charity, why he was doing it and what he wanted to

:26:25.:26:29.

raise awareness is. He raised ?30,000 for his

This is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden.

We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,

:30:04.:30:06.

but also on the programme this morning.

:30:07.:30:08.

Social Media companies are being accused of a "shameful

:30:09.:30:10.

failure" to block illegal and dangerous material being shared.

:30:11.:30:29.

Social media companies are being accused of a "shameful"

:30:30.:30:31.

failure to tackle on-line terrorist propaganda and hate speech.

:30:32.:30:34.

A report by a group of MPs claims sites like Facebook,

:30:35.:30:37.

Twitter, and Google put more effort into protecting their profits

:30:38.:30:39.

than keeping the public safe on line.

:30:40.:30:41.

A man killed during an attempted burglary at a house in Dorset has

:30:42.:30:45.

Detectives say 61-year-old, Guy Hedger, was shot as intruders

:30:46.:30:48.

entered the property, near the town of Ringwood,

:30:49.:30:50.

in the early hours of Sunday morning.

:30:51.:30:52.

It's not believed Mr Hedger was known to his killers.

:30:53.:30:55.

The organisation representing NHS groups has called on political

:30:56.:30:57.

parties to commit to linking health spending to the growth

:30:58.:31:00.

The Confederation points out that UK health spending as a share

:31:01.:31:04.

of the economy is below that of France and Germany.

:31:05.:31:07.

It also wants the next Government to set up an independent body

:31:08.:31:10.

to advise what level of funding is needed to meet the needs

:31:11.:31:13.

Labour says it will clamp down on bad landlords,

:31:14.:31:17.

The party wants new powers for councils to issue licences,

:31:18.:31:21.

with tough fines for those who fail to provide safe

:31:22.:31:24.

But the Conservatives say it will lead to rent rises.

:31:25.:31:27.

A man's died and a woman was seriously injured in separate

:31:28.:31:30.

incidents during a motocross and quad-biking event in County

:31:31.:31:33.

The rider was taken by air ambulance to hospital but died

:31:34.:31:36.

Later a woman also had to be airlifted from the private meeting

:31:37.:31:40.

Police closed the event on safety grounds.

Campaigning in the French presidential elections

:31:46.:31:47.

is entering its final week ahead of the vote on Sunday.

:31:48.:31:50.

Both candidates, the centrist, Emmanuel Macron, and his far-right

:31:51.:31:52.

opponent, Marine le Pen, will lead major rallies around

:31:53.:31:55.

Opinion polls taken since the first round of voting last week suggest

:31:56.:31:59.

The testing of primary school children, used to make important

:32:00.:32:07.

decisions about students, is damaging and should be reformed

:32:08.:32:09.

according to an influential group of MPs.

:32:10.:32:11.

The cross-party Education Select Committee says the way SATs results

:32:12.:32:14.

are used to judge schools, causes a negative impact

:32:15.:32:16.

The Department for Education said it will consider the report and respond

:32:17.:32:21.

At least 13 people are now confirmed to have died as tornados

hit the US State of Texas over the weekend.

:32:34.:32:36.

More than 50 people in hospital according to local authorities.

A chance discovery by a pre-school child has saved a family of owls.

:33:00.:33:03.

Three large eggs were found in a sawdust bucket next

:33:04.:33:05.

to a compost toilet at a forest school near Winchester.

:33:06.:33:08.

At first, they weren't quite sure what type of bird

:33:09.:33:11.

been some debate about what species they are. Tawny? Barn? No, they are

was going to be an exciting finish. Now, I will not say it will be a

Following the death of a student from meningitis, 4,200

:40:40.:40:44.

undergraduates at Surrey University are going to be given

:40:45.:40:46.

The vaccination programme has been described as a precautionary step

:40:47.:40:50.

Meningitis is an infection of the protective membranes

:40:51.:40:53.

surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

:40:54.:40:55.

Meningitis A, B, C, W, and Y are the most common in the UK.

:40:56.:40:59.

Currently, there are three types of vaccine offered in the UK.

:41:00.:41:01.

The MenC vaccine is given to babies at 12-13 months old.

:41:02.:41:04.

In Scotland, infants get their first jab at three months.

:41:05.:41:07.

The new MenB vaccine is given to babies at two,

:41:08.:41:10.

And the vaccine for meningitis A, C, W, and Y is given

:41:11.:41:15.

So, should people be concerned about this new outbreak and what can

:41:16.:41:38.

Someone who can answer that and more is Steve Dayman founder

:41:39.:41:43.

He's in our Bristol newsroom this morning.

:41:44.:41:46.

Thank you very much. What do you know about this latest outbreak? We

:41:47.:41:55.

any idea about why this particular Spikes in cases happen? -- spikes.

:41:56.:42:07.

It is rare for there to be more than one case like we have seen in

:42:08.:42:17.

Surrey. We have seen a high carriage rate. It is contagious. How is

:42:18.:42:25.

generally transmitted? Well, bacteria lives in the backs of our

:42:26.:42:30.

noses and throats and is passed by close contact. When I talk, I am

:42:31.:42:38.

spraying droplets of water. We all have carried it had won point in our

:42:39.:42:46.

lives. -- had it at one. Cobleigh 30-40 of your colleagues carry it.

:42:47.:42:52.

-- probably. For the rest of us, along with other things we pick up,

:42:53.:42:56.

the immune system kicks in and keeps it at a. But one or two will be

:42:57.:43:02.

vulnerable. That is why they have kept this precaution and

:43:03.:43:07.

administered thousands of vaccines. Are these programmes is effective

:43:08.:43:12.

generally? Well, yes. We know that the many different types of

:43:13.:43:17.

vaccines, they are very effective, especially with the new baby

:43:18.:43:20.

programme, which has seen a big reduction in the number of cases in

:43:21.:43:25.

that age group. Of course, as a charity, we are fighting to raise

:43:26.:43:30.

funds for prevention, to support scientists, and we want to see the

:43:31.:43:36.

vaccine offered to the high risk groups, the under fives, and at

:43:37.:43:45.

university, like fresh students. The disease warriors people, as there

:43:46.:43:50.

are many complications. Some vaccines cover the illness and some

:43:51.:43:54.

don't We cannot completely relax and be complacent about it. There are no

:43:55.:43:59.

other strains we have vaccines to protect against. It is important

:44:00.:44:06.

everyone is aware of the symptoms of meningitis because we know from the

:44:07.:44:10.

work we do, the earlier it is identified and prompt help afforded,

:44:11.:44:21.

the better the outcome supplied when we look out for the rash, should we

:44:22.:44:30.

look at the Simpsons before that? Yeah. There are no set pattern is

:44:31.:44:39.

for the disease to present itself. But with meningitis, obviously, a

:44:40.:44:45.

headache, a stiff neck, septicaemia, aching limbs, aching joints, call

:44:46.:44:56.

hands and feet, and big, purple bruising. -- cold. But we say don't

:44:57.:45:08.

wait for a rash because it might not appear at all. But in many cases,

:45:09.:45:12.

like babies and toddlers, you would see a rapid deterioration in their

:45:13.:45:16.

condition. If you see a rash, seek help immediately. Significant and

:45:17.:45:21.

rapid change is important in all of this. Thank you.

Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather.

:45:45.:45:46.

It is fair to say she is shopping for a new car. Carol, have you found

:45:47.:46:03.

one? Look at this baby, Ben! This is a monster truck, you can see it by

:46:04.:46:09.

looking at the wheels, Swamp Thing, they are five foot six, an inch

:46:10.:46:14.

smaller than me, it is 14 foot, 12 foot wide, if you're wondering how

:46:15.:46:18.

to get in because there's no door, follow me. You come under here and

:46:19.:46:22.

you literally climb up these steps which take you into the driver's

:46:23.:46:27.

seat, but we're not going in because it is wet inside. This way is by the

:46:28.:46:34.

.5 tons, so it is a big beast! It's been wet in Peterborough this

:46:35.:46:40.

morning but the rain has stopped. -- it weighs 5.5 tons. The forecast for

:46:41.:46:45.

many is showers in the south but in the north, especially the

:46:46.:46:48.

north-west, some sunshine and warm sunshine at that.

:46:49.:46:51.

North-west Scotland could get 20 today. If we look at the country at

:46:52.:46:58.

9am, starting in Scotland, the west is best, we start off from the word

:46:59.:47:02.

go with some fine but in the east there is more cloud around. Some

:47:03.:47:05.

pantry raider across northern England at 9am. As we come out,

:47:06.:47:11.

again some brighter breaks and cloud in the east -- patchy rain. The rain

:47:12.:47:16.

across us is moving northwards and it will weaken as it does. Currently

:47:17.:47:21.

it is moving northwards, across parts of the Midlands, East Anglia,

:47:22.:47:26.

parts of the southern counties. It's been heavily in Devon and Cornwall

:47:27.:47:30.

overnight, some parts have seen as much as an inch, and that will ease

:47:31.:47:35.

through the morning and we got it in south Wales but north Wales, drier

:47:36.:47:40.

and brighter. As we head into Northern Ireland, Northern Ireland

:47:41.:47:43.

will have a decent day if you like it's sunny and pleasantly warm.

:47:44.:47:47.

Talking of through the day, a noticeable breeze along the east

:47:48.:47:51.

coast blowing in cloud at times, especially in eastern Scotland.

:47:52.:47:55.

Bands of rain weaken and they turned more showery but some of the showers

:47:56.:48:01.

will be heavy and possibly thundery but in between them, sunny spells as

:48:02.:48:05.

well. Temperatures under the cloud that bit lower in the east, 11 or

:48:06.:48:09.

12, but if you're out of the cloud and showers, looking at the

:48:10.:48:12.

mid-teens, apart from the west where we could have mid-teens or high

:48:13.:48:16.

teens or possibly 20. Through the evening and overnight period you

:48:17.:48:19.

will find under the clear skies we will have them by night, so after a

:48:20.:48:23.

warm day, a cold night. Showers in the south fading and also a bit more

:48:24.:48:28.

cloud at times on the breeze in the east, temperatures roughly 7-9.

:48:29.:48:34.

Tomorrow we start with clear skies again in the north and west. Still

:48:35.:48:38.

more cloud in the east at times but it will break up and we will see

:48:39.:48:42.

sunny spells, but also showers developing in central parts of

:48:43.:48:45.

England and through the day they will drift to the south-west. You

:48:46.:48:49.

know the drill with showers, not all of will catch one and temperatures

:48:50.:48:53.

again around the mid-to-high teens in the sunshine in the west. By the

:48:54.:48:57.

time we get to Wednesday, we've got a bit more of the same, fairly

:48:58.:49:05.

settled, mostly dry, one or two showers, more cloud in southern

:49:06.:49:08.

areas, bright rather than wall to wall blue skies so the lion's share

:49:09.:49:12.

of the sunshine will be in the west where we have the highest

:49:13.:49:15.

temperatures. Before I go, Benny and Bjorn Rachel, a question. This buggy

:49:16.:49:19.

goes from 0-6 did in how many seconds? -- Ben and Rachel? -- 0-6

:49:20.:49:32.

did. I would go six. Nearly. Four. Four seconds, it is as fast as a

:49:33.:49:35.

Porsche. Wow, that is one of the few cars I

:49:36.:49:42.

would fit in, I am liking that, I would be able to step up to that

:49:43.:49:47.

one. Can you bring it back? With pleasure! I will dry off the seat,

:49:48.:49:54.

though. That is impressive, 0-60 in four seconds! She has been looking

:49:55.:49:59.

at the other trucks, they are pretty nice inside! Beds, fridges, very

:50:00.:50:06.

nice! A slightly less luxurious form of transport now but functional and

:50:07.:50:08.

important for many of us. They're used for five billion

:50:09.:50:09.

journeys every year to shop, work or study, yet bus services

:50:10.:50:12.

outside of London are in crisis, Councils across England and Wales

:50:13.:50:15.

have cut their budgets by a third since 2010,

:50:16.:50:18.

affecting thousands of routes. And it's the young, the less well

:50:19.:50:21.

off and those living in small towns and villages who are said to be

:50:22.:50:25.

the ones suffering most. Here's our transport

:50:26.:50:28.

correspondent, Richard Westcott. Time's running out

:50:29.:50:30.

for many of our buses. They carry three times more people

:50:31.:50:33.

than the trains but thousands of council-subsidised routes have

:50:34.:50:37.

gone in recent years. This is the 267 late-night service

:50:38.:50:41.

from Bath to Froome. It's one of the services

:50:42.:50:49.

that is facing cuts across the country, and in fact come

:50:50.:50:54.

September the funding for this service is going to

:50:55.:50:57.

run out completely. Most of the passengers

:50:58.:50:59.

on this bus are young, like Holly, who works

:51:00.:51:02.

lates in a restaurant. And Josh, who goes

:51:03.:51:06.

to college in Bath. They can't afford to drive,

:51:07.:51:08.

catch the more expensive train It's a really, really big deal

:51:09.:51:11.

because you just can't find the same opportunities in a small town

:51:12.:51:16.

like Froome, so being able to travel daily and nightly back from Bath,

:51:17.:51:19.

it's really important to me being able to earn enough money

:51:20.:51:22.

to live independently. How much longer have

:51:23.:51:26.

you got potentially going How are you going to get

:51:27.:51:28.

there for the next three years? Bath and North East Somerset council

:51:29.:51:35.

says other authorities should help fund the service because

:51:36.:51:43.

the passengers come First Bus has helped keep it

:51:44.:51:45.

going for a few extra months, but in reality unless a campaign can

:51:46.:51:51.

drum up more passengers, It's a story reflected across much

:51:52.:51:54.

of England and Wales. Campaigners say nearly 3,000

:51:55.:52:02.

council-subsidised routes have been 500 of them last year when two

:52:03.:52:04.

thirds of local authorities First Group run a fifth

:52:05.:52:13.

of the buses outside London, which is where these

:52:14.:52:21.

cuts are happening. We want to carry more customers,

:52:22.:52:23.

that's how we are successful, is how the communities

:52:24.:52:27.

we serve are successful. When we are criticised for bus cuts

:52:28.:52:29.

or whatever we do take it hard. We only ever withdraw a service

:52:30.:52:32.

as a very last resort and of course very often at the moment

:52:33.:52:36.

a service is being withdrawn because of reductions

:52:37.:52:39.

in local authority funding. Councils say years of cuts

:52:40.:52:41.

in government funding has forced A new buses bill will soon give them

:52:42.:52:44.

more powers to improve services, but back on the 267,

:52:45.:52:51.

passengers know that once their bus disappears, it almost

:52:52.:52:55.

never comes back. Moths are munching their way

:52:56.:52:56.

through our clothes in record numbers this year because of

:52:57.:53:07.

the unusually mild winter, according to the pest

:53:08.:53:09.

control company Rentokil. They say the number of calls

:53:10.:53:15.

to deal with infestation's doubled between February

:53:16.:53:20.

and March this year. The larvae make a meal

:53:21.:53:22.

of the protein found in natural materials such as wool and silk

:53:23.:53:26.

and leave behind telltale holes. Paul Hetherington is director

:53:27.:53:30.

of the charity Buglife and joins us Paul, good morning. Many people will

:53:31.:53:44.

have been subject to this, opened the wardrobe and found holes in

:53:45.:53:48.

their wardrobes. Why is it particularly bad at the moment?

:53:49.:53:52.

Well, it's nothing to do with winter weather because the reality is ever

:53:53.:53:57.

since we developed central heating, the clothes moths have been breeding

:53:58.:54:00.

and living in our houses and breeding and living all year round

:54:01.:54:04.

so it won't be anything to do with that phenomenon. I wonder if it's

:54:05.:54:08.

partly because people have got used to not having clothes moths around

:54:09.:54:12.

because there's been a big switch to acrylic type that aerials and will

:54:13.:54:17.

is coming back into vogue and people are using them more and they are

:54:18.:54:24.

finding clothes moths more because of those preventative measures not

:54:25.:54:28.

being used -- acrylic type materials. Is it all types of moths

:54:29.:54:35.

affecting all types of clothes? It is a particular species of moth that

:54:36.:54:40.

lives on things like wool fibres, silk fibres and most of the rest of

:54:41.:54:44.

the family that this particular moth is in live on things like fundi.

:54:45.:54:50.

They are poor fliers, you will see them crawling rather than flying.

:54:51.:54:53.

The females have more ability to fly but as I say, they don't fly very

:54:54.:54:58.

far so if you've got them, they might get to your neighbours but not

:54:59.:55:05.

very much further. It is really about them being in your house and

:55:06.:55:08.

staying in your house and breeding within your house. Maybe not sending

:55:09.:55:11.

them to your neighbours! Let's talk about what you can do to prevent it,

:55:12.:55:15.

some preventative measures aren't as simple or as practical as you would

the clothes that isn't that viable, is it? No. Ceiling things in plastic

:55:24.:55:28.

bags is a sure way to prevent moths getting in. Washing things, getting

:55:29.:55:32.

them dry clean, shaking them will knock out any eggs and larvae so all

:55:33.:55:41.

of those are good preventative measures. There are chemical

:55:42.:55:43.

treatments, personally I wouldn't recommend any of them and you only

:55:44.:55:47.

have to look over the history of the different chemicals used, originally

:55:48.:55:51.

they used arsenic, then DDT, and then naphthalene, or have been

:55:52.:55:54.

banned because they are very dangerous to humans so it is good to

:55:55.:55:59.

take preventative measures. Keep the place clean. The moths are unhappy

:56:00.:56:02.

in the light, so if you have something you are using a lot then

:56:03.:56:07.

keep it out, give it a shake every day and things you don't use, wool

:56:08.:56:12.

blankets, shake them out and pack them nice and tight in a plastic

:56:13.:56:20.

bag, that will keep them safe. Are you saying people shouldn't go the

:56:21.:56:23.

whole hog and get things fixed fumigated and get the exterminators

:56:24.:56:28.

in, because you can't get rid of them in other ways? You can get rid

:56:29.:56:33.

of them with good hygiene, give yourself a spring clean, scrub it

:56:34.:56:38.

down, shake everything out, wash it and back it up and that should deal

:56:39.:56:42.

with the problem with outputting chemicals in your house because who

:56:43.:56:46.

knows of the long-term effect of those chemicals in your house. And

:56:47.:56:50.

they will have a bad effect on some of the good invertebrates in your

house, like spiders, not everyone likes them but they do eat up the

moths. Worth bearing in mind. Thanks for your advice. People, the

would like to see. One of its key proposals

:11:40.:11:44.

is linking health spending To tell us more is Niall Dickson,

:11:45.:11:46.

chief Executive of The NHS Good morning. Thank you for your

:11:47.:11:58.

time this morning. We know we will hear an awful lot about this from

:11:59.:12:01.

the various different political parties in the next few weeks. I

:12:02.:12:05.

guess it is important for you guys to get your pitch in early. What is

:12:06.:12:10.

the main message you are sending out today? Everybody understands the

:12:11.:12:14.

Brexit negotiations are going to dominate this election, but I think

:12:15.:12:19.

we feel that the country faces another set of really important

:12:20.:12:23.

decisions, a round of funding, the cost and indeed the reform of health

:12:24.:12:27.

and care services. Which is why we believe that the level of funding

:12:28.:12:32.

should be linked to the gross domestic product, so when the

:12:33.:12:35.

economy grows, then the funding grows. We need to establish an

:12:36.:12:40.

independent body to assess level of need and the trends over the next

:12:41.:12:47.

ten or 20 years. So it is about trying to establish something that's

:12:48.:12:50.

independent of government, but also gives some clarity to government

:12:51.:12:55.

around, and to the population, about the levels of funding going into the

:12:56.:13:00.

system. Linking it to GDP is interesting. Traditionally the UK

:13:01.:13:04.

spends less per hen GDP on health than other countries do, the USA for

:13:05.:13:10.

example, Japan, France and Germany. But if you link it to economic

:13:11.:13:13.

performance, despite the fact things have been pretty robust in the last

:13:14.:13:17.

couple of years in the UK, it can dip down. Health needs themselves

:13:18.:13:23.

don't necessarily respond to that, they are a cute as ever. Isn't there

:13:24.:13:29.

a danger? I suppose there is. If you look at defence and you look at

:13:30.:13:32.

international aid, both of which have been linked, I think they have

:13:33.:13:36.

benefited from that clarity about how much government or all of us are

:13:37.:13:41.

willing to spend on that area. Of course, if a government finds itself

:13:42.:13:44.

with an economy that's going into recession, as we did in 2008,

:13:45.:13:50.

whether it is linked to GDP or not, the answer is funding levels and to

:13:51.:13:55.

are likely to suffer. People will make arguments to try and defend

:13:56.:14:01.

what is really difficult area, and what differentiate health and care

:14:02.:14:04.

from some other areas is perhaps the level of demand. If you look across

:14:05.:14:08.

the next 20 years, the number of people who are over 85 is going to

:14:09.:14:12.

double post I will say that again, will double. The effect of that on

:14:13.:14:17.

health and care is very profound and we need to ask ourselves pretty hard

:14:18.:14:21.

questions. We are not saying that funding is the be all and end all.

:14:22.:14:25.

It is necessary but it's not sufficient. The system needs to deal

:14:26.:14:28.

with a massive workforce crisis at the moment and it also needs to

:14:29.:14:32.

transform itself. It frankly is not fit for purpose at the moment.

:14:33.:14:36.

Setting those things aside, if it doesn't get enough funding, it won't

:14:37.:14:43.

be able to Gbyte of those things. Talking about our elderly, growing

:14:44.:14:45.

elderly population, so much discussion recently about

:14:46.:14:47.

integrating health and social care. We don't seem to be making a huge

:14:48.:14:52.

amount of progress. It may become a devolved issue, in Greater

:14:53.:14:54.

Manchester it's been talked about, if they could have control over

:14:55.:14:58.

social and health care. How do you see that panning out? I think you

:14:59.:15:03.

are right, integrating services, that is to say making sure that

:15:04.:15:07.

instead of having a system that is incentivised at the moment to do

:15:08.:15:11.

one-off interventions and do more and more of them, has to be able to

:15:12.:15:15.

cope with a very large number of elderly people who have got often

:15:16.:15:18.

lots of different long-term conditions. That means effectively

:15:19.:15:23.

trying to treat them earlier in the community and organising services so

:15:24.:15:26.

that when an elderly person find themselves going up the chain

:15:27.:15:30.

towards the hospital, that the system is geared to minimising the

:15:31.:15:36.

time that they have at the hospital end and maximising the amount of

:15:37.:15:40.

prevention and support that you can give them in the community. We are

:15:41.:15:43.

some way away from achieving that, but I think the whole system is

:15:44.:15:48.

committed to moving toward it, but we would argue there is also a need

:15:49.:15:51.

for some transitional funding, to enable people to build up new

:15:52.:15:55.

services while the older ones are run down. If I can mostly briefly,

:15:56.:15:58.

we are also talking about the option of setting up some kind of

:15:59.:16:02.

independent ombudsman to oversee funding of the NHS. A lot of voters

:16:03.:16:06.

would like to see the whole question of funding taken out of the Bish

:16:07.:16:11.

Bash Bosh of political parties, is it feasible? I don't think it is, it

:16:12.:16:16.

will always remain a political question. What we are saying is if

:16:17.:16:21.

you set up something like an Office for Budget Responsibility for

:16:22.:16:23.

health, that organisation will at least be able to provide the

:16:24.:16:26.

evidence and then we can have the political argument, which we will

:16:27.:16:30.

always have, about how much is a society do we want to go to meet

:16:31.:16:34.

those needs? Having an objective assessment of those neat and frankly

:16:35.:16:39.

holding my members to account for the value for money that they

:16:40.:16:42.

provide seems to us a way in which you could at least improve the

:16:43.:16:45.

quality of the debate. Thank you very much indeed. Good to talk to,

day, a breeze coming from the North Sea, that's bringing in the cloud

:19:18.:19:21.

but it will break here and there. The rain we have across England and

:19:22.:19:25.

Wales turning water shall worry but some of the showers will be heavy

:19:26.:19:29.

and thundery, in between there will be some sunshine in the north-west

:19:30.:19:34.

is where we will have the highest temperatures approaching 20, in the

:19:35.:19:38.

east more likely 11 or 12, but the rest of us, low to mid teens.

:19:39.:19:43.

Through the evening and overnight, under the skies in the West the

:19:44.:19:47.

temperature dropping quite quickly, a cold night, showers in the South

:19:48.:19:52.

fading. Still hanging onto some cloud in the East, temperatures

:19:53.:19:58.

roughly between six and 9 degrees. Tomorrow we start off with more

:19:59.:20:01.

cloud in the east, it will break up slowly as we go through the day,

:20:02.:20:07.

also prone to some showers across central England which will drift

:20:08.:20:10.

south west as we go through the day. You know the drill with showers, not

:20:11.:20:15.

all of this will catch them. Temperatures in the high teens. For

:20:16.:20:20.

Wednesday, in the South a little bit more cloud, bright, some sunny

:20:21.:20:24.

spells, rather than wall-to-wall blue sky and further north, once

:20:25.:20:29.

again, a fair bit of sunshine, the temperature is responding

:20:30.:20:33.

accordingly. Typical bank all the weather, Rachel and then. Raining

:20:34.:20:37.

today and dries up for most of as we go through the rest of the week. For

:20:38.:20:42.

most of us, it won't be raining mad! Can I say, you win the prize for the

:20:43.:20:48.

coolest and calmest person that ever sat under a flying quad bike. If you

:20:49.:20:52.

need anything on your CV, that is it. You look as if you're sitting

:20:53.:20:58.

there having a cup of tea. I am fully confident with Jason, he's

:20:59.:21:03.

brilliant. We like it. More from you later. Thank you.

:21:04.:21:13.

Six days, 26.2 miles and a two blistered knees later -

:21:14.:21:21.

the man who chose to crawl the London Marathon dressed

:21:22.:21:23.

as a Gorilla finally completed the course at the weekend.

:21:24.:21:26.

He moved on his hands and knees for around 12 hours a day

:21:27.:21:29.

and has so far raised more than ?30,000 for charity.

:21:30.:21:31.

Some call him mad, some call him Mr Gorilla -

:21:32.:21:34.

the man himself Tom Harrison is here in the studio!

:21:35.:21:36.

But before we speak to him, let's have a look at his journey.

:21:37.:21:43.

CHEERING APPLAUSE

:21:44.:22:22.

As you can see, Tom is here with us, good morning.

:22:23.:22:28.

Good morning. We could do the entire interview with your mouse gone but

:22:29.:22:31.

people might want to see who is underneath so if you want to take it

:22:32.:22:37.

off, it's up to you. I find it faintly disturbing! Here he is!

:22:38.:22:41.

Really nice to see you, congratulations first of all,

:22:42.:22:45.

incredible journey. Toggles what went through your mind. -- talk us

:22:46.:22:52.

through. The first thing was perhaps I had bitten off more than I could

:22:53.:22:57.

chew. I started off with a plan that I would do nine miles a day, that

:22:58.:23:02.

was my hope, by the end of the first day I'd only done for and a half

:23:03.:23:06.

miles, my knees were blistered. I started to get a little bit worried

:23:07.:23:11.

that I might not be able to get round, or I wouldn't be able to do

:23:12.:23:15.

it in three days. Talk us through the technique. What does it involve?

:23:16.:23:21.

I did a crawl a bit like a baby on hands and knees. And then because of

:23:22.:23:28.

my knees, being blistered I had to adapt and started walking on hands

:23:29.:23:34.

and feet. So like in the clip, I am sort of bent over, leaning onto my

:23:35.:23:38.

knuckles or my palms. That looks so uncomfortable. Did you train? In

:23:39.:23:45.

that way or did you just not bother, did you just think I'll do it and

:23:46.:23:48.

see how I get on? The training that I did do was four or five sessions

:23:49.:23:55.

on my hands and knees so I haven't trained using my hands and feet,

:23:56.:23:58.

really I have to just picked up as I went along. Yes, which was another

:23:59.:24:04.

reason why it turned out to be that bit harder. The other thing about

:24:05.:24:09.

the marathon, if you do it on the day, 5-6 hours, there are people

:24:10.:24:14.

there, the streets are aligned, presumably there are moments in this

:24:15.:24:19.

26 miles when it was just you crawling along the street and people

:24:20.:24:22.

must have been thinking what is that guy doing? Certainly, then the first

:24:23.:24:26.

mile and a half I didn't have anyone with me and all the runners left me

:24:27.:24:31.

far behind, people were giving me some strange looks and a wide berth,

:24:32.:24:36.

but some people were clapping, I had a number on my back and they

:24:37.:24:40.

realised what I was doing, I did still get a little bit of support

:24:41.:24:45.

but it was really only after Abate three, that it started to spread

:24:46.:24:47.

out. People were picking up on it I then. On social media, people were

:24:48.:24:55.

stopping me for photos, bringing me drinks and snacks, banana muffins,

:24:56.:24:59.

it got better as I went round. Let's talk about why you did it. Because

:25:00.:25:04.

it's an important cause. He went on a trip to Africa last year, that's

:25:05.:25:08.

all related to it, explain that for us. Last November I was lucky enough

:25:09.:25:12.

to go out to see the mountain gorillas in Rwanda and Uganda on a

:25:13.:25:16.

tour arranged by the gorilla organisation. They are a charity

:25:17.:25:21.

that I did the marathon for. And I was so inspired by seeing the

:25:22.:25:26.

gorillas in their natural habitat, seeing how content they were, just

:25:27.:25:33.

being left alone, and by all the work that the gorillas organisation

:25:34.:25:38.

do, is Rangers and working with the local people on the fringe of the

:25:39.:25:41.

Forest to make themselves sufficient, I thought I have got to

:25:42.:25:44.

do something more for them, something a bit special. And I

:25:45.:25:51.

thought how would a gorilla get round the London Marathon? Of course

:25:52.:25:56.

you did! Not that they would be daft enough to do one, but if they did,

:25:57.:26:00.

it would have been on their hands and feet, the knuckle walking.

:26:01.:26:06.

Gorillas more intelligent than us in that sense. Let's see you cross the

:26:07.:26:09.

line, this must have been the most amazing feeling, I doze your

:26:10.:26:14.

children beside you? The older one is Nicholas, the younger one is

:26:15.:26:17.

Alex, they walked the last 100 metres for me and Bill Oddie, and

:26:18.:26:22.

Ian Redmond met me at the finish with a toy gorilla and a trophy. Did

:26:23.:26:29.

they feel like the heaviest things in the world to hold? Yes,

:26:30.:26:33.

absolutely. And I went for a little swim yesterday and my arms were

:26:34.:26:38.

protesting at me doing that but it's all been in a great cause, my web

:26:39.:26:46.

page just giving .com/ Mister- gorilla is still open, I would urge

:26:47.:26:51.

people to jump on there and sponsor a great cause. I am amazed you are

:26:52.:26:56.

still in that suit because I think I would have burned it by now. The

:26:57.:27:01.

total is up to... With gift aid it's just over 40,000. Amazing, well

:27:02.:27:06.

done, brilliant, nice to see you. You are allowed a lie down now.

:27:07.:27:10.

Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:27:11.:30:37.

Now though it's back to Rachel and Ben.

:30:38.:30:45.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden.

:30:46.:30:50.

Let's bring you up-to-date with the news that 8:30am.

:30:51.:30:55.

A group of MPs says the failure of some of the biggest internet

:30:56.:30:58.

companies to remove illegal online content is a "disgrace."

:30:59.:31:00.

The Home Affairs Select Committee says firms -

:31:01.:31:02.

including Facebook, Twitter and Google -

:31:03.:31:03.

are "shamefully far" from taking sufficient action

:31:04.:31:05.

to deal with terrorist propaganda and images of child abuse.

:31:06.:31:07.

The sites have defended their approach to online safety

:31:08.:31:09.

A man killed during an attempted burglary at a house in Dorset has

:31:10.:31:14.

Detectives say 61-year-old Guy Hedger was shot as intruders

:31:15.:31:27.

entered the property, near the town of Ringwood, in

:31:28.:31:30.

It's not believed Mr Hedger was known to his killers.

:31:31.:31:34.

The organisation representing NHS groups has called on political

:31:35.:31:36.

parties to commit to linking health spending

:31:37.:31:40.

The Confederation points out that UK health spending

:31:41.:31:43.

as a share of the economy, is below that of France and Germany.

:31:44.:31:46.

It also wants the next Government to set up an independent body

:31:47.:31:49.

to advise what level of funding is needed to meet

:31:50.:31:52.

Labour says it will clamp down on bad landlords,

:31:53.:31:55.

The party wants new powers for councils to issue licences,

:31:56.:32:05.

with tough fines for those who fail to provide safe housing

:32:06.:32:08.

But, the Conservatives say it will lead to rent rises.

:32:09.:32:13.

The testing of primary school children - used to make important

:32:14.:32:16.

decisions about students - is damaging and should be reformed

:32:17.:32:18.

according to an influential group of MPs.

:32:19.:32:20.

The cross-party Education Select Committee says the way SATs results

:32:21.:32:23.

are used to judge schools, causes a negative impact

:32:24.:32:25.

The Department for Education said it will consider the report

:32:26.:32:28.

At least 13 people are now confirmed to have died as tornados hit the US

:32:29.:32:39.

More than 50 people are in hospital according to local authorities.

:32:40.:32:43.

The American midwest has been struck by an intensive weather system that

:32:44.:32:46.

has caused damage across several states including neighbouring

:32:47.:32:48.

Missouri and Oklahoma, which are now in a state

:32:49.:32:50.

Some nice pictures for you this morning.

:32:51.:33:04.

A chance discovery by a pre-school child has saved a family of owls.

:33:05.:33:07.

Three large eggs were found in a sawdust bucket next

:33:08.:33:10.

to a compost toilet at a forest school near Winchester.

:33:11.:33:12.

At first, they weren't quite sure what type of bird

:33:13.:33:14.

it was until they saw this fly from the outdoor loo.

:33:15.:33:17.

The school set up a camera and caught the father owl feeding

:33:18.:33:20.

the mother while she sat on the eggs, and then

:33:21.:33:22.

They are now a month old and doing well.

:33:23.:33:28.

THEY HAVE BEEN NAMED, HAVEN'T THEY RACHEL? THEY HAVE... ARE YOU GOING

:33:29.:33:35.

TO MAKE ME SAY IT AGAIN? The pair have been

:33:36.:33:37.

called Twit and Twoo. That is the role of any farther to

:33:38.:33:43.

be. You are up-to-date with the headlines this morning. Kat is here

:33:44.:33:51.

with the sport and a very busy weekend.

:33:52.:33:56.

It has been, and not over yet, Liverpool play Watford this evening.

:33:57.:34:00.

The Champions League race becoming hot.

:34:01.:34:07.

Yes, very tight, especially with the two Manchester teams struggling over

:34:08.:34:08.

the weekend. Chelsea have been top since December

:34:09.:34:19.

and still top. Three games -- four games to go and they have to win

:34:20.:34:22.

three of them. You wouldn't bet against them.

:34:23.:34:24.

Chelsea have maintained their lead at the top of the Premier League

:34:25.:34:27.

after an impressive 3-0 win at Everton yesterday.

:34:28.:34:29.

Pedro scored a brilliant opener for Antonio Conte's side,

:34:30.:34:31.

while Gary Cahill and Willian got the other second half goals.

:34:32.:34:34.

Chelsea have a four point advantage with just four games

:34:35.:34:36.

We must be pleased, because we play the game with our head. This part of

:34:37.:34:54.

the season is very important play with your head, then your heart and

:34:55.:34:57.

then your legs. I think we did this today.

:34:58.:35:05.

But second placed Tottenham continue the chase.

:35:06.:35:06.

They were impressive in a 2-0 victory over

:35:07.:35:08.

Delli Alli and Harry Kane got the goals to guarantee that Spurs

:35:09.:35:12.

will finish the League season above their neighbours

:35:13.:35:18.

Elsewhere Manchester City are still fourth after

:35:19.:35:21.

Manchester United stay fifth after being held at home by Swansea.

:35:22.:35:25.

Lewis Hamilton was put in the shade by his teammate

:35:26.:35:27.

Valtteri Bottas yesterday - who claimed his maiden F1 win

:35:28.:35:30.

The Mercedes driver held off a late challenge from Sebastian Vettel

:35:31.:35:34.

Hamilton came a disappointing fourth.

:35:35.:35:37.

World Number One Mark Selby will go into the last day

:35:38.:35:40.

of the World Snooker Championship final trailing John Higgins

:35:41.:35:42.

Defending champion Selby won the last three frames of the day

:35:43.:35:48.

to give himself a lifeline having trailed 10-4 to

:35:49.:35:50.

Selby is currently enjoying an unbroken two year spell as World

:35:51.:36:00.

Number One and has dominated the sport recently.

:36:01.:36:02.

But it's nicely poised going into the final day of competition,

:36:03.:36:06.

Organisers for the Tour de Yorkshire say more than 2 million people

:36:07.:36:11.

turned out across the county over the weekend to see some

:36:12.:36:13.

The final stage of the men's race from Bradford to Fox Valley

:36:14.:36:19.

near Sheffield included some tough climbs and steep descents.

:36:20.:36:24.

Belgian Serge Pauwels won yesterday's stage to secure

:36:25.:36:26.

And he's all over the papers this morning again.

:36:27.:36:35.

After his captivating victory over former undisputed heavyweight

:36:36.:36:37.

champion Wladimir Klitschko on Saturday night, Anthony Joshua

:36:38.:36:38.

And despite adding the WBO and IBO belts to his existing IBF title,

:36:39.:36:44.

here's how the Briton responded to being described as

:36:45.:36:47.

Do you know what it is, I am going back to the same house

:36:48.:36:57.

Perception and reach changes, but the ground I am

:36:58.:37:06.

I have to keep that mindset right now and keep my feet firmly

:37:07.:37:18.

Feet firmly on the ground. But life is about to change, global sporting

:37:19.:37:27.

star is a bit of an understatement when it comes to Anthony Joshua. But

:37:28.:37:32.

I think perhaps that attitude, he is so humble. I think that's why he's

:37:33.:37:37.

about to become a global superstar. And that sort of transcends the

:37:38.:37:40.

world of boxing and he pulls in those viewers, which the promoters

:37:41.:37:44.

will laugh because that is where the money lies. He's all over the

:37:45.:37:48.

papers, and rightly so, this morning. He has returned home and

:37:49.:37:56.

been reunited with his mum, going back to the launderette to pay his

:37:57.:37:58.

washing bills! Thank you. A childhood in an infamous care home

:37:59.:38:00.

and a short stint behind bars might not seem the most likely

:38:01.:38:04.

career path for an award But those experiences marked

:38:05.:38:06.

the early life of Alex Wheatle. He created the fictional

:38:07.:38:10.

South Crongton estate, where unemployment, deprivation

:38:11.:38:12.

and drugs are a part Crongton Knights told

:38:13.:38:16.

the tough, but often funny, Now he's taking us back

:38:17.:38:21.

there again in his new book Straight Outta Crongton,

:38:22.:38:25.

and he's with us this Terrific to have you here this

:38:26.:38:34.

morning. Thank you. In the short time we have we can't go into all

:38:35.:38:39.

the details of your really tough childhood, but it has obviously had

:38:40.:38:43.

a profound influence on you and your writing. Tell us a bit about your

:38:44.:38:47.

journey through to becoming an author modular it started at three

:38:48.:38:52.

years old when I was placed in Lambeth social services. I was in

:38:53.:38:55.

Shirley Oaks almost all my childhood. I left at 16 and moved to

:38:56.:39:01.

Brixton. You were physically abused in Shirley Oaks? Yes I was,

:39:02.:39:06.

violently, physically and sexually and even mentally. I had that to

:39:07.:39:10.

overcome and I had depression for many years. How old when you left

:39:11.:39:16.

Marcello 16, 15 or 16. What kind of a 16-year-old were you Marcello very

:39:17.:39:22.

confused, low self 16. I didn't believe I could contribute to

:39:23.:39:27.

society in any way. I felt like an outsider, so alone and isolated. All

:39:28.:39:31.

those issues to deal with. Where did you go from there? From there,

:39:32.:39:36.

funnily enough my prison stint helped me. I bumped into someone who

:39:37.:39:41.

I shared a cell with and they encouraged me to start reading and

:39:42.:39:45.

to write down my feelings and try to get this bitterness out of me. So it

:39:46.:39:49.

first came out in poetry and song lyrics. That really helped me come

:39:50.:39:56.

to terms with issues on the bitterness I had growing up. From

:39:57.:40:02.

that writing came at the book series on the latest... You talk about the

:40:03.:40:07.

issues in it, dealing with gangs and drugs and physical aggression and

:40:08.:40:10.

verbal abuse. Pretty heavy issues to deal with. Young people have to deal

:40:11.:40:18.

with pretty serious issues, and it's not just a south London thing. I

:40:19.:40:20.

travelled quite widely promoting my books. The other day I was in the

:40:21.:40:26.

north of Newcastle and I came across the same problems I see in South

:40:27.:40:32.

London. This latest novel is about a young girl, 15 years old, and many

:40:33.:40:36.

people, many young children now don't live in the traditional

:40:37.:40:40.

nuclear family is, so I decided to change the narrative. Sometimes we

:40:41.:40:46.

see a young boy maybe not getting on with his mum's boyfriend father's

:40:47.:40:51.

girlfriend, but I try to change the narrative. I thought it would be

:40:52.:40:55.

more interesting from a young girl's perspective, she doesn't get on with

:40:56.:40:59.

her mother's boyfriend and he's quite abusive towards. Who do these

:41:00.:41:03.

books tend to work for? There are two ways you can read them, an

:41:04.:41:07.

outsider looking in and realising what many young people are facing,

:41:08.:41:11.

but also if you are a young person going through exactly this, it's

:41:12.:41:14.

some sort of help and reassurance you're not alone. Yes, that you are

:41:15.:41:20.

not alone, someone is writing for you, writers are out there trying to

:41:21.:41:23.

relate their experiences. I think it is so important. There are so many

:41:24.:41:27.

people up and down trying to deal with these kinds of issues I'm

:41:28.:41:32.

trying to write about. I'm trying to do something for children in those

:41:33.:41:36.

situations. There's a gap between representation in the literary world

:41:37.:41:41.

of young people, young people of colour in particular. I think you've

:41:42.:41:45.

said it goes way beyond just having black borders that are represented,

:41:46.:41:50.

it goes right through the publishing industry. It does. There was a

:41:51.:41:55.

recent report, I believe, that highlighted this case. I think some

:41:56.:41:59.

of their major publishers have dealt with this. My publisher are dealing

:42:00.:42:04.

with this, setting up the unit to deal with this issue, to get more

:42:05.:42:08.

representation within the workforce. There is a long way to go but I

:42:09.:42:11.

believe it has started. Young people of that kind of age, teenagers, are

:42:12.:42:16.

they reading still, as much as you would want? We have the Harry Potter

:42:17.:42:22.

effects but it was a Jan cashback a younger age group. If we provide the

:42:23.:42:28.

sources they are interested in, they will come to read it. It is up to

:42:29.:42:33.

ask authors on the industry to provide relative stories they can

:42:34.:42:37.

engage in. I think it is down to us. Also very current, you talk about

:42:38.:42:43.

being moved by some of the marchers, like the women's march in Washington

:42:44.:42:46.

in response to Donald Trump's presidency. That was a big

:42:47.:42:50.

motivator. It was. When I was editing the last chapters of

:42:51.:42:54.

Straight Outta Crongton, is about three girls trying surviving a

:42:55.:43:00.

particular situation, I'd dedicated the book to those marchers. I have

:43:01.:43:05.

family in Washington, DC, sisters and a brother. The movement movement

:43:06.:43:10.

quite deeply. I thought it was apt to dedicate the book to that. Alex,

:43:11.:43:15.

you yourself have an amazing story to tell. Good luck with your book

:43:16.:43:18.

and thank you for coming in to talk to us about it.

:43:19.:43:20.

Alex's new book is called Straight Outta Crongton.

:43:21.:43:22.

Time for some weather with Carol is out and about this morning. We have

:43:23.:43:30.

seen incredible sites this morning. Jumped by a quad bike earlier! You

:43:31.:43:39.

look a bit more safe on solid ground now.

:43:40.:43:45.

For now, yes. Good morning to you. The truck behind me is amazing. This

:43:46.:43:50.

is a monster truck. It is 14 foot tall, 12 foot wide and its tyres are

:43:51.:43:55.

five foot six and height. It is one of a monster trucks taking part

:43:56.:44:01.

today. Expected to be about 40,000 people coming today. There are 3000

:44:02.:44:06.

trucks and monster trucks taking part and lots of fun things for the

:44:07.:44:09.

family to do. You can look at the quad bikes in the background as

:44:10.:44:15.

well. It has been pouring buckets this morning, which is why it is so

:44:16.:44:21.

muddy. As we go through the day, the rain we have will turn weaker and

:44:22.:44:25.

more patchy and more showery in nature. The brighter skies today

:44:26.:44:28.

will be in north-west Scotland, that is where we will have the highest

:44:29.:44:32.

temperatures. Northern Ireland not faring too badly either. For

:44:33.:44:36.

Scotland this morning at nine o'clock, the West is best in terms

:44:37.:44:40.

of sunshine. The East seeing a bit more cloud. Moving south into

:44:41.:44:46.

northern England, here there is some rain. A few brighter breaks in the

:44:47.:44:51.

cloud and then back into the rain across East Anglia, into the

:44:52.:44:57.

Midlands and the Southern counties. There have been some heavy rain in

:44:58.:45:03.

northern Cornwall. Through the morning that will weaken. The south

:45:04.:45:08.

Wales, again, some rain this morning but turning more showery through the

:45:09.:45:11.

course of the day. North Wales after a drier and brighter start. For

:45:12.:45:15.

Northern Ireland, again this morning a fine start for you. We will see

:45:16.:45:18.

some sunshine through the course of the day, a little more cloud

:45:19.:45:22.

developing in the east. Not a particularly cold start to the day.

:45:23.:45:27.

Through the course of the day, there is a noticeable breeze coming in

:45:28.:45:31.

from the North Sea. You will also see a bit more cloud coming in from

:45:32.:45:36.

the North Sea. Even so, some holes in the cloud. The rain will turn

:45:37.:45:40.

more showery in England and Wales but some of those showers will be

:45:41.:45:44.

heavy and sundry. Many of us will miss them. In Northern Ireland,

:45:45.:45:49.

sunny spells prevail and hear the highest temperatures, approaching 20

:45:50.:45:52.

in some parts. Through the evening and overnight, where we have the

:45:53.:45:56.

clearest skies every day we will hang on overnight, after a warm day

:45:57.:46:00.

the temperature will dip rapidly in be cold. We hang on to the cloud in

:46:01.:46:03.

eastern areas and showers in the South will fade and die, with

:46:04.:46:08.

temperatures between 7-9. Tomorrow, we start off with the

:46:09.:46:13.

cloud in the East, breezy. There will be some showers developing in

:46:14.:46:16.

the day in central parts of England. They will tend to drift towards the

:46:17.:46:21.

south-west. But for most of us, a dry day. Temperatures into the mid

:46:22.:46:25.

to high teens. Then by the time we get to Wednesday, Wednesday sees the

:46:26.:46:30.

southern half of the country with a bit more cloud, bright with sunny

:46:31.:46:34.

skies, but once again the north and north-west hanging on to the

:46:35.:46:37.

sunshine for the longest. Temperatures very similar. We saw in

:46:38.:46:43.

the background the quad bike doing fantastic tricks. What we have is

:46:44.:46:48.

the driver with us, Jason. Let me chat to you for a bit about what you

:46:49.:46:53.

have been doing. It has been spectacular. That stunt you did when

:46:54.:46:57.

you just flew right over us in the monster truck, how long did it take

:46:58.:46:59.

to practice? It wasn't too long, I started racing

:47:00.:47:11.

motocross as a young lad, it was just moving from doing stunts to

:47:12.:47:19.

doing it across a metal rod. What inspired you to do it? I retired

:47:20.:47:23.

from motocross but I wanted to ride bikes for a living, I wanted to

:47:24.:47:27.

think of something else I could do and it came about, the idea of

:47:28.:47:31.

putting and making an exhibition. Do you come up with all your own

:47:32.:47:35.

routines? That's right, we design a new routine each year, it's all our

:47:36.:47:41.

own programme and we try to keep it entertaining. How do you keep it

:47:42.:47:45.

safe, it looks pretty dangerous, we shouldn't be trying this at home?

:47:46.:47:49.

It's difficult to keep it safe, we try our best, to make sure we do the

:47:50.:47:53.

same routine every single time and go through the same safety checks

:47:54.:47:58.

every time, that part of it is very important, and also try to stay on

:47:59.:48:02.

edge, stay nervous, it keeps you on top of your game. What's the most

:48:03.:48:08.

dangerous routine you do? I think probably on a day like today when

:48:09.:48:11.

it's wet and the grass is quite wet and muddy, you are struggling for

:48:12.:48:16.

traction and that it comes a lot more dangerous than if it were a

:48:17.:48:20.

nice dry day. You very kindly promised to give me a little ride

:48:21.:48:25.

nearby, might is Assistant will provide me with a hat, Al just get

:48:26.:48:37.

this on... Helmet on. Ready to go. STUDIO: Carol is off. My goodness. I

:48:38.:48:45.

am hoping they are not going to do the job they did earlier commenters

:48:46.:48:49.

to be clear. That Carol and she is off, hopefully she will be back

:48:50.:48:54.

tomorrow. Just the look in her eyes as she got on. She has done so well

:48:55.:48:59.

this morning, she has a here full of mod, soaking wet... She might need a

:49:00.:49:10.

shower later! It's 8:49am. But first...

:49:11.:49:13.

If you're eating out, and you're so full you just

:49:14.:49:15.

A survey suggests two-fifths of people are reluctant

:49:16.:49:21.

This is contributing to millions of tonnes

:49:22.:49:24.

That's assuming there are leftovers come off when I'm out for dinner,

:49:25.:49:33.

more often than not there isn't. Now restaurants in Scotland

:49:34.:49:36.

are taking part in a scheme to get people to take

:49:37.:49:38.

their unfinished meals home. Holly Hamilton has

:49:39.:49:40.

been to find out more. When it comes to dining out,

:49:41.:49:43.

we're spoilt for choice. And in an all super-sized era,

:49:44.:49:45.

portion sizes are getting bigger And yet even if we can't manage

:49:46.:49:48.

to finish everything on our plate, most of us are quite reluctant

:49:49.:49:52.

to ask for it to be boxed up and taken home with us,

:49:53.:49:55.

in other words a doggy bag. Adam, do you mind if

:49:56.:49:58.

I get the rest to go? In fact, one survey found that

:49:59.:50:00.

while 70% of people said they'd like a doggy bag, 42% said they'd be

:50:01.:50:06.

too embarrassed to ask for one. Makes you feel a bit conscious

:50:07.:50:09.

of the fact that you might be looked upon differently if

:50:10.:50:25.

you ask for the food. If they give you too big a helping

:50:26.:50:27.

and you can't finish it you've paid for it, so you got a choice

:50:28.:50:31.

of taking it home and having it That's sensible as far

:50:32.:50:34.

as I'm concerned. I have on numerous occasions

:50:35.:50:39.

and I don't have any problem It's so much waste,

:50:40.:50:41.

I have a small appetite, I enjoy good food but I would

:50:42.:50:45.

like to take it home with me. I never ask for a doggy bag

:50:46.:50:48.

because look at my plate, In Scotland it could soon be

:50:49.:50:51.

the norm with plans to introduce doggy bags to all restaurants

:50:52.:50:55.

as part of a plan to cut food waste. Excuse me, sir, would you like that

:50:56.:51:00.

wrapped in a doggy bag? Well, a lot of restaurants

:51:01.:51:03.

offer doggy bags already, What Good to Go does is that

:51:04.:51:09.

extra bit of promotion, so you're actively

:51:10.:51:12.

offering a doggy bag. We did a pilot and pleased to say

:51:13.:51:14.

it was really positive and something that restaurants told us

:51:15.:51:17.

they wanted, and customers too Across the UK food waste costs

:51:18.:51:20.

the restaurant sector more than ?600 million a year, with eateries

:51:21.:51:24.

producing nearly 200,000 tons. More than a third of that

:51:25.:51:27.

waste comes straight Campaigners here say if restaurants

:51:28.:51:29.

routinely offered doggy bags it would save the equivalent of 800,000

:51:30.:51:35.

meals going in the bin every year. I do think that it's our

:51:36.:51:42.

responsibility to make sure people are aware of the fact it's

:51:43.:51:45.

OK to take food home, it's OK to reheat it

:51:46.:51:48.

and it is fit for purpose. We're talking about a world that

:51:49.:51:51.

has a food crisis in it So people taking food home,

:51:52.:51:54.

we're just giving them that opportunity and actually intervening

:51:55.:51:59.

rather than waiting for them to ask Doggy bags are common practice

:52:00.:52:01.

in the US and even in France restaurants are now legally

:52:02.:52:07.

obliged now to provide one But here in the UK,

:52:08.:52:09.

old habits die hard. As a nation we don't

:52:10.:52:17.

like to make a fuss, but with ambitious targets to cut

:52:18.:52:19.

food waste by 20% within the next ten years, maybe it's time to start

:52:20.:52:22.

thinking inside the box. Right, it's that time again -

:52:23.:52:25.

to be clear. This is your ad fans notice. -- ad fans.

:52:54.:52:59.

was finally unmasked last night in the dramatic finale

:53:00.:53:02.

The BBC One drama has had us hooked for weeks,

:53:03.:53:06.

and it didn't disappoint as fans took to social media to show

:53:07.:53:09.

Here's a scene from last night's episode.

:53:10.:53:12.

DCI Roz Huntley's husband is facing some tough questions by police.

:53:13.:53:20.

I don't know! How would you describe your emotional state that evening?

:53:21.:53:29.

Were you in a frame of mind to control your wife's behaviour? She

:53:30.:53:35.

was the one that went to the flat. There are no witnesses to your wife

:53:36.:53:40.

entering the flat, no CCTV, no traffic cameras... She left her

:53:41.:53:45.

mobile at home. So did you. I was in a rush, I forgot it. This fellow,

:53:46.:53:51.

Timothy, who may or may not have been having sex with your wife, what

:53:52.:53:56.

did you plan to do? Nothing, why would I plan to kill him? How could

:53:57.:54:01.

I. We will look at three things opportunity. You were there. Means.

:54:02.:54:09.

Motive. You believed he was having an affair with your wife. She is

:54:10.:54:15.

trying to frame me. So good! If you haven't seen it, you have such a

:54:16.:54:18.

treat in store. We are joined... We're joined now by Maya Sondhi

:54:19.:54:20.

whose character WPC Maneet Bindra left viewers shocked

:54:21.:54:23.

after she seemingly You of all people! It's not my

:54:24.:54:37.

fault. It was you! It was a big shock to me too. I was reading it

:54:38.:54:41.

and I was walking through an airport because it's so exciting when you

:54:42.:54:45.

get the script and I was reading it, really, really small and have I just

:54:46.:54:51.

read that right, I was thinking. And I thought, no! I was a bit gutted.

:54:52.:54:58.

The relationship that you had with a CC Hilton is left up in the air, we

:54:59.:55:02.

don't really know what happened and what your role was and why you were

:55:03.:55:06.

there and involved are not. And I don't either! The big finale last

:55:07.:55:11.

night, did you watch it. What did you make of it? I loved it, I hadn't

:55:12.:55:16.

seen it, I knew what was going to happen because I read the script but

:55:17.:55:20.

when you are filming it, you fill your bit, you haven't seen the rest

:55:21.:55:23.

of it, when it's put together it's so exciting. To see it live like

:55:24.:55:28.

everyone else. Events TV. What did you think? We loved it. We were

:55:29.:55:34.

discussing this morning about whether it lives up to the previous

:55:35.:55:38.

series. I think Ben was expect the massive should add that we had at

:55:39.:55:43.

the end of series three but iPod but was crazy and I like the fact it was

:55:44.:55:46.

a little bit more contained this time. We still have to get up early

:55:47.:55:52.

to do this and I was lying in bed completely unable to sleep. A great

:55:53.:55:56.

story, you were pregnant in the series, you were actually pregnant

:55:57.:56:02.

and you'd said to them, I was lovely, I was asked back for a

:56:03.:56:06.

series four, I was thrilled, but then I was really worried because I

:56:07.:56:10.

was pregnant and so I text to Jed mercurial who writes and created the

:56:11.:56:17.

show and I said I'd love to come back but I'm pregnant, I don't know

:56:18.:56:22.

what to do. And he said, it's brilliant, it totally goes with your

:56:23.:56:25.

character, we invited in. Let's look at the bit you left, this was your

:56:26.:56:28.

departure, temporarily... I feel drained, served. It's not

:56:29.:56:50.

long until the start of my maternity leave. I see. Things are beginning

:56:51.:56:58.

to get on top of me. And the timing couldn't be worse. I really need all

:56:59.:57:03.

my best people, you know? The last thing I want to do is let you in the

:57:04.:57:07.

department down. This is what's so wonderful comic you are watching up,

:57:08.:57:11.

watching what's going on, why is she leaving and it starts to become

:57:12.:57:14.

clear but so many unanswered questions. It's a brilliant ensemble

:57:15.:57:18.

piece in television, what's it like working with the cows? Are wonderful

:57:19.:57:22.

and I genuinely can't say this, when I started on the third series I was

:57:23.:57:26.

terrified because it's such an intense drama and you think is

:57:27.:57:30.

everyone going to be serious, take themselves too seriously? You go and

:57:31.:57:34.

Vicki and Morton and Adrian and Craig from series three they went

:57:35.:57:38.

like that... They are like a massive family and they are so good at what

:57:39.:57:43.

they do so generous. And Sandy Newton who a new layer. I thought

:57:44.:57:49.

Daniel Mays was incredible and then I thought... We were so conflict

:57:50.:57:56.

did, did we like, didn't we? This series was particularly female

:57:57.:57:59.

heavy, really strong women earning the show and I think that's, Jed

:58:00.:58:07.

writes women fantastically. You talk about it being events TV and also

:58:08.:58:09.

for the first time, people doing it on social media as well, do you look

:58:10.:58:16.

at that reaction, you are watching and you think... After episode four

:58:17.:58:20.

Twitter went into meltdown, people were so upset, I didn't realise how

:58:21.:58:26.

much people reacted. I felt really disappointed in myself, actually!

:58:27.:58:32.

There is another series. There is. The end of this year, maybe next,

:58:33.:58:36.

Jed is so busy. I think he's got another show to write. And you are

:58:37.:58:41.

not going to reveal anything about capital H and who it is... I don't

:58:42.:58:46.

know, I couldn't honestly tell you. You left us up in the air but we

:58:47.:58:50.

have loved it. Thank you so much. Good to see you. Remember, all of

:58:51.:58:54.

the episodes of the season are on Dan and Louise will be

:58:55.:58:55.

here from 6am tomorrow morning. We asked you to tell us

:58:56.:59:04.

what's left you feeling totally ripped off and you

:59:05.:59:07.

contacted us in your thousands. You've told us about the companies

:59:08.:59:10.

that you think get it wrong,

:59:11.:59:14.
