with Rachel Burden and Christian Fraser. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
More failed fire-safety tests on high rise buildings. | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
Every sample of cladding looked at so far has failed | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
34 towers in 17 areas of England have now been identified | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
Following the Grenfell Tower tragedy as many as 600 blocks may need | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
The government says work is taking place around the clock. | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
Hundreds of residents in north London have spent a second night | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
away from their homes after four buildings were evacuated, | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
Good morning, it's Saturday 25th June. | :00:40. | :00:59. | |
Blackmail fears are raised after a cyber attack on Parliament. | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
In sport, England get a shock in the opening match | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
They were outplayed by India, falling short in their run chase. | :01:06. | :01:18. | |
Two years after a serious accident meant the Foo Fighters had to pull | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
out of Glastonbury, they make their triumphant return. | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
And the weather. Good morning, a north-south split today, most places | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
largely dry, brighter and cooler in the north, cloudy and slightly | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
milder in the south. All the details for you in about 15 minutes. Stav, | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
thanks very much. Fire safety tests on 34 samples | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
of cladding from tower blocks in England have failed, | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
according to new figures released That means a 100% | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
failure rate so far. In North London, residents have | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
spent a second night in temporary accommodation | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
after Camden Council evacuated four high rise blocks because of | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
fire safety concerns. Testing around the clock. The | :02:02. | :02:15. | |
government says as many as 600 high-rise blocks will need to be | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
checked for fire safety. Councils are being urged to prioritise | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
buildings there are most worried about. So far 34 samples of cladding | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
examined across 17 councils in England haven't met the required | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
standards, a 100% failure rate. The councils include Manchester, | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
Hounslow and Plymouth. Fire authorities are also having to | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
examine exposed pipes, cable ducts, escape routes and fire doors. It's a | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
huge undertaking and it's not just residential blocks. Checks are | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
taking place in scores of NHS buildings like Hull Royal infirmary. | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
Ministers say a failed test doesn't necessarily mean a building has to | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
be evacuated but in the London hundreds of people are spending a | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
second night in temporary accommodation. Camden council says | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
it was left with no choice because of multiple fire safety failures. | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
Some, though, still don't want to go. The council officials came to | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
the door, banging on the door, get out, get out, but the chap round the | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
hallway said she's not going, she's getting on for 80, she can't go | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
anywhere, she's got a cat. By night the pockets of resistance against | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
evacuation are evident. The council has said it has spent more than | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
?500,000 paying for hotels. It has promised to reimburse residents who | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
have had to fork out for accommodation. But for those who | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
have refused to move for a second night, they're being warned they | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
could still be moved. Nick Quraishi, BBC News. | :03:50. | :03:50. | |
Some people are irritated about how it has all unfolded, Catriona? It is | :03:51. | :04:03. | |
much calmer today than yesterday morning when we were here, when we | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
were here yesterday at around 11pm, it was busy with lots of people | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
asking questions. I've been told overnight many more people have been | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
taken to hotels so now a lot of people are in temporary | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
accommodation, whether that's hotels or with family and friends. I've | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
spoken with some people who stayed here overnight, we understand 40 | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
people stayed here overnight, amongst them, children, I spoke to | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
A40 -year-old, he's really tired and he's gone two nights without any | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
sleep, he has school tomorrow so he hopes he has somewhere nice to in | :04:41. | :04:48. | |
which to stay tonight and the council we are told has found him | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
somewhere -- 14-year-old. Some people were defiant, they are | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
staying, last night when I looked there were some lights on, fewer | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
than the night before, some 20 families don't want to leave. Abdi, | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
this morning I spoke to him, he doesn't want to leave, he has a | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
two-month-old baby and he said he feels safer until the council find | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
him somewhere. ?100 has been given out to every household today, that | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
is happening here. There will be a special Eid celebration for members | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
of the Muslim community because people at Camden council say they | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
don't want the people at the housing estate to miss out. Thanks, such a | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
difficult situation. In about half an hour we'll be | :05:35. | :05:35. | |
checking in with one of the residents refusing to leave | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
their home on the Chalcots Estate. A cyber attack on the parliamentary | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
computer system appears to have been contained according | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
to government sources. Officials at the Houses | :05:46. | :05:46. | |
of Parliament said there had been a determined attempt by hackers | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
to identify weak passwords for e-mail accounts used by MPs, | :05:50. | :05:51. | |
peers and their staff. Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen has | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
raised concerns that it could leave The National Cyber Security Centre | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
is now investigating what happened. Yemen is now facing the worst | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
cholera outbreak in the world according to the World | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
Health Organization There have been more | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
than 200,000 suspected The outbreak has spread | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
because of the collapse of the health system | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
during the civil war The Archbishop of Canterbury, | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
Justin Welby, has urged Theresa May to set up a cross-party commission | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
to advise her on Brexit. Writing in the Mail on Sunday, | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
he says such a commission could hold the ring | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
for the differences to be fought out and draw much of | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
the poison from the debate. The Government says imports such | :06:30. | :06:39. | |
as coffee, clothing and cocoa products should not see any notable | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
price rise after Brexit. 48 of the world's poorest countries | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
will continue to have duty Our business correspondent | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
Joe Lynam has more. Some of our most popular ingredients | :06:48. | :07:00. | |
and products, like cocoa or bananas, are grown in some of the world's | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
poorest countries. Do help almost 50 of them expand their economies, the | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
EU already allows them to export their goods tariff free into Europe. | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
Now the government has confirmed that this will be maintained after | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
Britain leaves the EU. It means products such as bananas, sugar and | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
coffee should not be any more expensive for UK households when | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
imported after 2019. The UK imports almost ?20 billion a year tariff | :07:25. | :07:32. | |
free from 48 developing countries, including Haiti, Ethiopia, | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
Bangladesh and Sierra Leone. Exports of arms and defence equipment are | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
not included in this trade agreement. We want as we leave the | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
European Union to be champions of global free trade, pointing out that | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
it has already taken more people out of poverty in the last 25 years than | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
in the whole of human history up to that point. We've got to keep that | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
momentum going, we got to get the big economies opening up and we've | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
got to give the open Trinity is to the developing countries to trade | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
their way out of poverty. Shaming Britain quits the European customs | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
union as well as the EU it will be free to conduct its own trade deals | :08:09. | :08:16. | |
with any country. That could allow it to expand the list of poor | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
countries with tariff free access to UK markets in future. Joe Lynam, BBC | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
News. Six years since making his | :08:23. | :08:22. | |
Glastonbury debut on one of its | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
smallest stages, Ed Sheeran will be closing the festival as the top | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
billed act later on this evening. Last night the US rock band | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
Foo Fighters finally had their chance to headline | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
at Pilton Farm two years after an injury meant | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
they were forced to pull out Our entertainment correspondent | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
Lizo Mzimba is there. A headline set by rock band foo | :08:39. | :08:50. | |
fighters... Here he is, Jeremy Corbyn! He wasn't one of the | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
headline artists, but perhaps unsurprisingly he drew one of the | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
biggest crowds so far. Do you know politics is actually about everyday | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
life. The Labour leader was always going to be a big draw for a | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
left-leaning audience at a festival like this. Jeremy Corbyn's | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
appearance is another demonstration of his current popularity with young | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
people in particular. Among the day's musical highlights, a vibrant, | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
energetic Katy Perry. And Liam Gallagher advocating Don't | :09:25. | :09:49. | |
Look Back In Anger to those who died in the London and Manchester terror | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
attacks and the Grenfell to our victims. Lizo Mzimba, BBC News, | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
Glastonbury. I did watch Katy Perry. That was | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
quite a moment, she was good. I was dancing around the sitting room in | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
my pyjamas. I didn't get as far as the Foo Fighters, that's the life we | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
lead! We like a good panda | :10:11. | :10:10. | |
story here on Breakfast, so let's tell you about some | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
new arrivals in Germany. Meng Meng and Jiao Qing were jetted | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
in yesterday as a gift from China. Later, they were unveiled | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
at a press conference where all was going well | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
until the Chinese Ambassador got a little too close | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
to one of the cages. I didn't know they did that! You | :10:25. | :10:36. | |
don't hear that, do you? That's the sound of an angry panda. | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
in Germany and will shortly be transported to their new home | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
at Berlin Zoo, where it's hoped they'll breed. | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
Of course, a lot of people are not terribly comfortable at looking at | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
pandas in small, confined spaces. Saw their teeth, you don't see them | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
much, do you? Shall we look at the papers? Let's start with the | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
Observer, ministers in panic U-turn over fire safety in schools. There | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
were big rows around the Grenfell tower tragedy, part of the reason | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
was deregulation and getting rid of red tape. The Observer is saying | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
they are going to go the other way, cost saving measures are going to be | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
cut in favour of a safety first attitude, especially with things | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
like schools and health centres and hospitals around the country. It is | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
reversed thinking within government. The cyber attack that has hit | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
Westminster on the front page of the Telegraph and the Sunday Times this | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
morning saying there are links to a foreign state being involved. They | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
weren't aware of the severity of this, an attempt to compromise | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
people's passwords. 10,000 people working in and around Westminster | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
have been told to change their passwords as a result of this but | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
one or two MPs are pretty unhappy, suggesting that the possibility of | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
blackmail amongst obviously other sensitive issues being compromised. | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
Let's show you the Sunday Times, a story we will talk about this | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
morning, blackmail danger after foreign state hacks MPs. There was a | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
story this week were 1000 passwords of MPs were on sale on social media. | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
This was a precaution. They knew they were under attack so they shut | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
down the system so MPs and peers weren't compromised. Interestingly, | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
looking at the Sunday Telegraph today, they say there's a prop up | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
Carizza campaign going on in government today but there's two | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
stories between the Sunday Times and the Telegraph about who might | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
succeed -- Teresa. But Philip Hammond saying we need to go to the | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
next generation, whoever that might be! | :12:48. | :12:48. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :12:49. | :12:49. | |
The main stories this morning: More failed safety tests on tower blocks | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
across England, every sample of cladding examined so far | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
Officials investigate a cyber attack on the Houses of Parliament say | :12:56. | :13:12. | |
It's believed hackers attempted to gain access to MPs e-mails. | :13:13. | :13:16. | |

Here's Stav with a look at this morning's weather. | :13:23. | :13:24. | |
A mixed bag this morning, Stav, a bit cloudy over here? That looks | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
spectacular. Lovely, a lovely sunset, quite cloudy out there, some | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
gorgeous breaks like this one in the north-east. We've got some photos of | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
beautiful sunrises across the south coast, so not all cloudy but | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
generally today it's looking cloudy across England and Wales compared to | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
yesterday. Still windy in the north as the pressure chart shows the area | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
of low pressure pulling away. The winds and the gales easing down, | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
turning brighter across Scotland and Northern Ireland but further south | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
the weather front will sink south. A few showers around, the odd heavy | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
one, but generally light. The best of the sunshine for Scotland into | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
Northern Ireland and reaching northern England as well. The winds | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
slowly easing down as well. On the cool side, across-the-board today it | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
will be to look than yesterday. In England and Wales, disappointingly | :14:20. | :14:21. | |
cloudy because of the weather front sinking south, showery outbreaks of | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
rain but many places should escape and stay fairly dry. A disappointing | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
day again at Glastonbury, great, leaden skies. The odds that of rain | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
in the air, temperatures around 18 or 19. For the tennis at Queen's, | :14:37. | :14:43. | |
also staying fairly cloudy with the odds that of rain, temperatures | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
around 20. A few degrees down on yesterday. The weather fronts across | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
England and Wales will eventually move southwards overnight and clear | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
away and the winds will ease down across-the-board, with clear skies | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
and the winds from the north-west, Julian white than of late, rural | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
areas down to single figures -- Julian white. Next week things are | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
quite unsettled. This era of low pressure. Uncertainty as to its | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
extent and timing, it will move northwards to western parts of the | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
country to bring a cloudy day for western fringes of Britain and an | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
increasingly wet day for Northern Ireland, some of the rain getting do | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
north-west England and south-west Scotland but further south and east, | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
scooping up warm air from France so quite warm with some sunshine. Next | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
week, like I mentioned, it will be more unsettled because of areas of | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
low pressure, breezy at times as well and rather cloudy. Towards the | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
end of the week it looks like a mixture of heavy showers and sunny | :15:40. | :15:41. | |
spells. We were all complaining last week, | :15:42. | :15:48. | |
it was too hot! Be careful what you wish for! | :15:49. | :15:49. | |
To reindeer now - don't worry we're not starting the countdown | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
For the natives of Alaska, the challenge of climate change | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
means that traditional hunting seasons are becoming shorter, | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
so there's a need to breed new stock for farming. | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
Our US correspondent James Cook has travelled to America's most | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
this is Roger. Isn't he cute? Don't worry. He is a pet. But his cousins | :16:04. | :16:19. | |
may not be so lucky. Reindeer meat is lean, tender, high in protein and | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
low in cholesterol. In Russia they needed is astute, in Finland as part | :16:24. | :16:35. | |
of the soup and in Alaska... We load up the fat bass with lots of | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
berries, different kinds of berries. It is tasty. Traditionally this land | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
was home to hunters of wild Caribou. But as temperatures rise, everything | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
changes. The coast of Alaska, people are used to fending for themselves, | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
to surviving without outside help. But even here, there is now a | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
feeling that the rest of the world should pay attention, because local | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
problems are becoming global concerns. And while politicians | :17:07. | :17:15. | |
wonder those problems, these people are finding that hunting is harder | :17:16. | :17:24. | |
than ever. The elders, they are watching climate change and verses | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
back on the day when they knew exactly when to go hunting and to do | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
this and that. Now they have to play with the weather. The winters are | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
colder and a little shorter and spring is coming earlier and a lot | :17:38. | :17:46. | |
warmer. And so the reshaping of Alaska, with permafrost melting and | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
place is thawing provides an opportunity. We have millions of | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
hectares of the most productive ranch land in the world. But it is | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
underutilised. We can put reindeer on these ranch land is. But there is | :18:01. | :18:08. | |
a problem. Reindeer have good PR. We need reindeer to feed people and so | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
I guess it is my job to take the magic out of Christmas. Plans are | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
now off or to fly thousands of reindeer to remote Alaskan villages | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
for farms. Rump of Rudolph could yet become an Alaskan delicacy. I | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
don't know of this sort of Christmas in several months time is what makes | :18:31. | :18:39. | |
you happy later this morning bath... dashmac | :18:40. | :18:39. | |
Later this morning we'll be meeting two people who've made it on to this | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
So we were thinking - what is making you happy this | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
For us, when we arrived in the office we found that one | :18:50. | :18:53. | |

Now it's time for the Film Review with Ben Brown and Mark Kermode. | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
We'll be back with the headlines at 6:30. | :19:19. | :19:32. | |
Hello and welcome to The Film Review on BBC News. | :19:33. | :19:34. | |
To take us through this week's cinema releases is Mark Kermode. | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
We have In This Corner Of The World, a very impressive Japanese anime. | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
Transformers: The Last Knight, the saga rumbles on. | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
And Hampstead, a film which does exactly what it says on the tin. | :19:52. | :20:01. | |
So, In This Corner Of The World, a war movie with a difference? | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
It is an anime based on a manga of the same name. | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
It goes from the '30s to the mid-40s. | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
A young girl, when she gets to the age of 18, marries someone | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
She goes to live in a different home and start a new life | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
of which she makes the most, but meanwhile the spectre of war | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
What is impressive about this is that, like a film | :20:25. | :21:22. | |
like Grave Of The Fireflies, it talks about a very dark subject | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
matter, in a way that has an innocence and universality | :21:27. | :21:28. | |
that a live-action movie couldn't do. | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
We saw from that clip the cloud that we know | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
And our heroine is an artist, and at certain moments in the movie | :21:35. | :21:42. | |
she looks up and sees explosions in the sky as explosions of paint. | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
There are moments when the narrative deals with very dark stuff | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
that you would get in a war movie, but it does so by the animation | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
unravelling and becoming drawings and becoming fragments of animation, | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
and, by looking at global events and tragedies through the eyes | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
of a particular character, it manages to watch | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
as if from a distance or slightly sculptured, | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
without ever looking away from harsh realities. | :22:07. | :22:08. | |
This opens on Wednesday, and if you like a film | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
like Your Name, which was a big hit, and is returning to cinemas soon, | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
I think this is well worth checking out. | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
It has won numerous awards and it's easy to see why. | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
The triumph is it approaches a difficult subject matter in a way | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
And it does that thing that animation can do that a live-action | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
film can't do, to look at the world in a different way, | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
to make us see these events in a different and personal way. | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
I liked it very much and I think you will too. | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
And Transformers: The Last Knight - I suspect you don't like it as much | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
It's one of the least offensive of the Transformers movies. | :22:49. | :22:55. | |
It looks back to the past to Arthurian legend and wibbles | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
around in Stonehenge and looks for mysticism and out to outer space | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
It's basically Transformers meets Monty Python and Spinal Tap, | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
Anthony Hopkins is in it and he's laughing all the way to the bank, | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
as this kind of eccentric aristocrat who has a butler who is like C3PO | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
He believes the only way to save the planet is to bring | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
together an historian and Mark Wahlberg's junkyard king | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
to save the world, which, frankly, on the evidence of the film, | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
On the plus side, there are less leering shots with the camera | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
looking up the skirts of its performers than we have had | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
His pornographic sensibility is toned down slightly. | :23:41. | :23:48. | |
The plot makes no sense whatsoever, despite the endless scenes of people | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
explaining the plot to each other, and indeed pointing at things | :23:52. | :23:54. | |
that are happening on screen and telling us what we are looking at. | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
It is massively incoherent, staggeringly dull | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
and whoppingly overlong, although in terms of the rest | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
of the Transformers movies it is less offensive. | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
I was not offended, I was just bored. | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
No, I have to say, my job is to stay awake. | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
Believe me, there were many moments in which I was going, | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
you have to stay awake, something interesting might happen. | :24:24. | :24:25. | |
Now, Hampstead, a romcom for the older audience? | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
That tells you everything you need to know, as does the title. | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
Thinking about Hampstead, the Heath, expensive properties | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
Over there is Highgate Cemetery and a pond... | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
At the centre of it, Brendan Gleeson is a beardy wild man | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
living in a shack he's built on the heath under the radar. | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
He is under threat of eviction from property developers, | :24:55. | :24:56. | |
and along comes Diane Keaton, the recently widowed Hampstead | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
resident, who tries to help him save his shack and gets | :25:00. | :25:01. | |
Yeah, it's about what happened the other day, and those people - | :25:02. | :25:13. | |
they really wanted to help you and I do too. | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
I'm a man who lives as he chooses to, and I'm not going to any court | :25:18. | :25:30. | |
OK, listen, there's no reason to wake the dead | :25:31. | :25:39. | |
How can you expect anyone to put up with all this nonsense? | :25:40. | :25:48. | |
Here is the thing with this film, I like both of those performers | :25:49. | :26:07. | |
and you would have to be pretty hard-hearted to get annoyed | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
with the movie, although I have read that some reviews have taken | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
In the back of it there is a true story, isn't there? | :26:15. | :26:22. | |
There really was a guy who had a shack and he had to fight a legal | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
battle, although I have to say this film's relationship with reality | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
is inspired by that true story, but it's passing at very best. | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
Compared to this, Notting Hill, the Richard Curtis movie, | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
looks like a really hard-hitting, tough and gritty film | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
Or something like Truly Madly Deeply suddenly looks like a scary Gothic | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
It is about as twee as it's possible for a movie to be. | :26:45. | :26:52. | |
And it just does all the things you expect this kind of movie to do. | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
But I didn't dislike it, because I like those two performers. | :26:57. | :26:59. | |
Despite the fact I don't believe in any of it at all. | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
It is a film which is best summed up as perfect Wednesday afternoon | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
viewing, which will go down well with a cup of tea and a biscuit, | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
It is romantic and I laughed a couple of times. | :27:13. | :27:21. | |
A lot of the scenes in Hampstead, you watch, thinking, | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
no, you could not afford to get a cup of tea there, | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
you couldn't get a parking space there. | :27:28. | :27:29. | |
By The Time It Gets Dark, you will have to search this movie | :27:30. | :27:38. | |
out because it is a limited release and an extraordinary Thai movie | :27:39. | :27:41. | |
It starts off as a film about an atrocity that happened | :27:42. | :27:48. | |
in the mid-1970s and somebody trying | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
And then what happens is it becomes a much more amorphous study | :27:53. | :28:01. | |
of the relationship between memory and history, and the inability | :28:02. | :28:03. | |
of cinema to capture history perfectly. | :28:04. | :28:05. | |
It's a film which takes in the whole history of cinema right | :28:06. | :28:08. | |
back to Melies and forward to digital technology. | :28:09. | :28:11. | |
It's witty and moving and it's strange. | :28:12. | :28:14. | |
It keeps looping back on itself and is clearly a film which cannot | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
be described in terms of plot, but if you like the films of, | :28:19. | :28:21. | |
say, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, which I know you do, | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
then it's really well worth seeking out. | :28:27. | :28:28. | |
But it's a very small release and you will need to seek it out, | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
I went in with no knowledge of it at all and, although I did not | :28:33. | :28:39. | |
understand a lot of it, it was really fascinating. | :28:40. | :28:41. | |
It's called By The Time It Gets Dark. | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
OK, and best DVD is a movie you have talked a lot about. | :28:47. | :28:49. | |
And you will talk again, so that is fine. | :28:50. | :28:52. | |
Here's the thing with Moonlight, you cannot say too many times how | :28:53. | :28:55. | |
When first seen, it was considered to be a little independent arthouse | :28:56. | :29:01. | |
movie with limited appeal, but I think | :29:02. | :29:04. | |
it is beautifully directed and fantastically played, | :29:05. | :29:07. | |
story of a life in three separate chapters, and it does everything | :29:08. | :29:10. | |
It tells a story that makes you feel involved in the characters, | :29:11. | :29:16. | |
even if your life is nothing like theirs at all. | :29:17. | :29:19. | |
It's compassionate and humane and thrilling in terms | :29:20. | :29:21. | |
And I confess I have seen it four times now, | :29:22. | :29:25. | |
and I will probably go back and watch it again. | :29:26. | :29:28. | |
See it again, you will love it even more. | :29:29. | :29:38. | |
Now, a quick reminder before we go that you'll find more film news | :29:39. | :29:43. | |
and reviews from across the BBC online at bbc.co.uk/MarkKermode. | :29:44. | :29:45. | |

with Rachel Burden and Christian Fraser. | :29:49. | :30:20. | |
Coming up before 7am, Holly will be here with the sport | :30:21. | :30:27. | |
but first a summary of this morning's main news. | :30:28. | :30:29. | |
Fire safety tests on 34 samples of cladding from tower blocks | :30:30. | :30:32. | |
in England have failed, according to new figures released | :30:33. | :30:35. | |
That means a 100% failure rate so far. | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
In North London, residents have spent a second night | :30:39. | :30:40. | |
in temporary accommodation after Camden Council evacuated four | :30:41. | :30:42. | |
high rise blocks because of fire safety concerns. | :30:43. | :30:45. | |
The government says as many as 600 high-rise blocks will need to be | :30:46. | :30:51. | |
Councils are being urged to prioritise buildings | :30:52. | :30:57. | |
So far 34 samples of cladding examined across 17 councils | :30:58. | :31:04. | |
in England haven't met the required standards, | :31:05. | :31:06. | |
The councils include Manchester, Hounslow and Plymouth. | :31:07. | :31:10. | |
Fire authorities are also having to examine exposed pipes, | :31:11. | :31:13. | |
cable ducts, escape routes and fire doors. | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
It's a huge undertaking and it's not just residential blocks. | :31:18. | :31:21. | |
Checks are taking place in scores of NHS buildings | :31:22. | :31:27. | |
Ministers say a failed test doesn't necessarily mean a building has | :31:28. | :31:37. | |
to be evacuated, but in North London hundreds of people are spending | :31:38. | :31:41. | |
a second night in temporary accommodation. | :31:42. | :31:42. | |
Camden Council says it was left with no choice because of multiple | :31:43. | :31:45. | |
Some, though, still don't want to go. | :31:46. | :31:48. | |
The council officials came to the door, banging on the door, | :31:49. | :31:51. | |
"Get out, get out," but the chap round the hallway said she's not | :31:52. | :31:55. | |
going, she's getting on for 80, she can't go anywhere, | :31:56. | :31:58. | |
By night the pockets of resistance against evacuation are evident. | :31:59. | :32:07. | |
Yemen is now facing the worst cholera outbreak in the world | :32:08. | :32:17. | |
according to the World Health Organization | :32:18. | :32:19. | |
There have been more than 200,000 suspected | :32:20. | :32:22. | |
The outbreak has spread because of the collapse | :32:23. | :32:25. | |
of the health system during the civil war. | :32:26. | :32:32. | |
A cyber attack on the parliamentary computer system appears to have been | :32:33. | :32:35. | |
contained according to government sources. | :32:36. | :32:36. | |
Officials at the Houses of Parliament said there had been | :32:37. | :32:39. | |
a determined attempt by hackers to identify weak passwords | :32:40. | :32:42. | |
for e-mail accounts used by MPs, peers and their staff. | :32:43. | :32:44. | |
Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen has raised concerns that it could leave | :32:45. | :32:47. | |
The National Cyber Security Centre is now investigating what happened. | :32:48. | :32:54. | |
We know that our public services were attacked, so it's not at all | :32:55. | :33:00. | |
surprisingly that there should be an attempt to hack into Parliamentary | :33:01. | :33:05. | |
e-mails. It's a warning to everybody, whether they're in | :33:06. | :33:08. | |
Parliament or elsewhere, that they need to do everything possible to | :33:09. | :33:13. | |
maintain their own cyber security, including having complex and | :33:14. | :33:14. | |
therefore safer codewords. The US rock band Foo Fighters | :33:15. | :33:18. | |
finally took the top billed slot at last night's | :33:19. | :33:22. | |
Glastonbury festival. The band's front man Dave Grohl | :33:23. | :33:24. | |
apologised for being two years late to the gig and performed | :33:25. | :33:27. | |
a number of their best known songs. They were originally meant | :33:28. | :33:31. | |
to headline the festival in 2015 but that injury forced them to pull | :33:32. | :33:35. | |
out just weeks before. You've heard of Crufts, | :33:36. | :33:38. | |
but there's an alternative dog competition that you might | :33:39. | :33:40. | |
not be familiar with. She's a Neapolitan mastiff and she's | :33:41. | :33:43. | |
just been named this year's She beat 13 other contenders | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
to claim the title, winning The big-jowled crowd-pleaser won | :33:50. | :33:53. | |
over judges by sprawling across the stage instead | :33:54. | :33:56. | |
of doing any tricks. The event usually includes | :33:57. | :33:58. | |
lots of dogs who have been rescued. What do they call those, Chinese | :33:59. | :34:13. | |
crested dogs? Not totally beautiful. I'm glad we're not seeing their | :34:14. | :34:17. | |
owners, aren't dogs meant to look like their owners? Big jowl. | :34:18. | :34:25. | |
Martha's owner is very nice, looks nothing like her! No big jowls! On | :34:26. | :34:32. | |
that note! Thanks for the introduction! Thanks for that! That | :34:33. | :34:39. | |
wasn't a link at all! I thought she was gorgeous personally! I thought | :34:40. | :34:45. | |
she was beautiful. So, cricket? Not a good start, was it? I was | :34:46. | :34:49. | |
listening to them in the week and I had big hopes. It's like everything | :34:50. | :34:53. | |
at the minute, a theme rolling that we have high hopes for the yesterday | :34:54. | :34:59. | |
for the Women's World Cup but there was one thing to take away is it is | :35:00. | :35:04. | |
helping the sport. That's what the tournament was about, changing it | :35:05. | :35:08. | |
around but still for England not the result they wanted. They are the | :35:09. | :35:12. | |
hosts of the Women's World Cup, but they ended up losing by 35 runs | :35:13. | :35:17. | |
against India in Derby and that would have been a record-breaking | :35:18. | :35:21. | |
victory if they have made their target of 282 but they fell short. | :35:22. | :35:23. | |
Think globally, what English cricket needed was to develop interest. | :35:24. | :35:36. | |
Locally and decent crowd expected early England wickets, instead they | :35:37. | :35:39. | |
saw one of the most exciting young talents in world cricket enjoying | :35:40. | :35:44. | |
herself. She made 90 in a style to light up any occasion. Supported by | :35:45. | :35:48. | |
her teammates and also by dropped England catches, this one was beyond | :35:49. | :35:52. | |
Beaumont on the boundary but fast bowler Katherine Brunt had been | :35:53. | :35:58. | |
blunted. India made 281. Whenever England seemed to be getting close | :35:59. | :36:02. | |
in the chase, runouts held them back, that was Captain Heather | :36:03. | :36:06. | |
Knight gone. Fran Wilson played the innings of her career so far, 81 and | :36:07. | :36:11. | |
England hoping. Guess what, she was run out, replays revealing her bat | :36:12. | :36:17. | |
wasn't grounded. In the end England were 35 runs short, their | :36:18. | :36:20. | |
preparation had seemed strong, I wondered if on this big occasion | :36:21. | :36:24. | |
some of the players might have frozen. We didn't start the way we | :36:25. | :36:29. | |
wanted to which meant we were always struggling uphill, but something we | :36:30. | :36:33. | |
will have to look at. I don't think it was anything to do with freezing, | :36:34. | :36:38. | |
we didn't quite bowl the way we wanted to and didn't put the | :36:39. | :36:41. | |
pressure back on -- India put the pressure back on us. A significant | :36:42. | :36:45. | |
and even historic result in women's cricket but it doesn't meaning and | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
are out. Remember initially all the eight teams play each other in a | :36:50. | :36:53. | |
round robin stage and England will expect to win their next match in | :36:54. | :36:57. | |
Leicester against Pakistan on Tuesday. Mind you, they expected to | :36:58. | :37:01. | |
win their opening match here against India. Joe Wilson, BBC News, Derby. | :37:02. | :37:07. | |
Lions head coach Warren Gatland said his side must be | :37:08. | :37:10. | |
more physical after they were tamed by the All Blacks in the first | :37:11. | :37:14. | |
They lost by 30-15, so he's likely to change things | :37:15. | :37:17. | |
around for their next match, against the Hurricanes on Tuesday. | :37:18. | :37:20. | |
With two Tests to come, Gatland says don't write them off | :37:21. | :37:23. | |
We said if we did drop a couple of games it wouldn't be the end of the | :37:24. | :37:32. | |
world because it was about improving and getting better from week to week | :37:33. | :37:35. | |
and we've demonstrated that as a group. We've got better the longer | :37:36. | :37:39. | |
we've been in New Zealand, the longer time we've had together, the | :37:40. | :37:43. | |
more trainings and more combinations and experience, the opposition of | :37:44. | :37:49. | |
New Zealand rugby and we said we'd do that and I think we've achieved | :37:50. | :37:51. | |
that so far. Lewis Hamilton said the pressure | :37:52. | :37:53. | |
was amazing after he produced what he called a beautiful lap | :37:54. | :37:56. | |
to take pole for this afternoon's When the session was held up | :37:57. | :37:59. | |
by a crash, the drivers only had time for one flying lap | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
at the end of qualifying and Hamilton went almost half | :38:05. | :38:06. | |
a second quicker than his Mercedes It was all or nothing. The lap just | :38:07. | :38:19. | |
got better and better throughout. I saw Valtteri Bottas just ahead, I | :38:20. | :38:23. | |
knew he was doing a good lap, I came across and I knew coming down to the | :38:24. | :38:27. | |
last corner, please be enough. I'm ecstatic. | :38:28. | :38:29. | |
Roger Federer is in really good form on grass | :38:30. | :38:32. | |
He reached the final of the Halle Open in Germany | :38:33. | :38:36. | |
with a straight sets win over Karen Khachanov. | :38:37. | :38:38. | |
Federer is back up to fifth in the world rankings | :38:39. | :38:41. | |
and he'll be looking for a 19th Grand Slam title at Wimbledon, | :38:42. | :38:44. | |
And in the other warm-up event at Queen's Marin Cilic beat | :38:45. | :38:51. | |
Gilles Muller to set up a meeting with Feliciano Lopez | :38:52. | :38:53. | |
Cilic has only had his serve broken once in the tournament so far. | :38:54. | :38:59. | |
Petra Kvitova says she's feeling no pain and couldn't have imagined | :39:00. | :39:02. | |
a better comeback as she reached her first final | :39:03. | :39:05. | |
since her playing hand was injured in a knife attack six months ago. | :39:06. | :39:08. | |
She'll face Australia's Ashleigh Barty in the final | :39:09. | :39:10. | |
of the Aegon Classic in Birmingham, after her semi-final opponent | :39:11. | :39:13. | |
Lucie Safarova was forced to retire. | :39:14. | :39:22. | |
Former England rugby league boss Steve McNamara had a losing start | :39:23. | :39:25. | |
at Catalans head coach as they were beaten 24-16 | :39:26. | :39:27. | |
Aiden O'Brien finished Royal Ascot as champion trainer | :39:28. | :39:31. | |
And the feature race was won by the 9-2 shot | :39:32. | :39:39. | |
The second-favourite stormed through in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes, | :39:40. | :39:42. | |
with around three quarters of a furlong to go. | :39:43. | :39:45. | |
There were some strong performances from Great Britain's athletes | :39:46. | :39:47. | |
at the European Team Championships in Lille. | :39:48. | :39:49. | |
At one point they led the standings but they finished | :39:50. | :39:52. | |
the second day of three in third place. | :39:53. | :39:54. | |
Eilidh Doyle produced one of the best performances, | :39:55. | :39:56. | |
running a season-best in the 400-metre hurdles. | :39:57. | :40:02. | |
England will meet Malaysia this afternoon in the third/fourth placed | :40:03. | :40:05. | |
playoff at the Hockey World League in London. | :40:06. | :40:07. | |
They were beaten 2-0 by the Netherlands | :40:08. | :40:09. | |
in the semi-finals but if they win this afternoon, they'll reach | :40:10. | :40:12. | |
the World League final in India this December. | :40:13. | :40:22. | |
It was a largely disappointing Saturday for Britain's boxers | :40:23. | :40:25. | |
at the European Championships in Ukraine, picking up just one | :40:26. | :40:28. | |
Peter McGrail in the bantamweight division. | :40:29. | :40:33. | |
Sir Ben Ainslie has admitted that his team got aspects | :40:34. | :40:36. | |
of their boat design and strategy wrong after failing to qualify | :40:37. | :40:39. | |
They were comprehensively beaten by Team New Zealand | :40:40. | :40:42. | |
and Ainslie is planning some changes. | :40:43. | :40:49. | |
For sure we're going to have to mix things up a little bit. After a | :40:50. | :40:55. | |
couple of weeks of sitting back and reflecting on it I'm quite clear in | :40:56. | :40:59. | |
the direction I want to take the team. Probably will be a few | :41:00. | :41:04. | |
difficult conversations, but that's the nature of development sport, you | :41:05. | :41:08. | |
have to keep evolving and moving forwards and we've got a great core | :41:09. | :41:12. | |
team here, I couldn't be prouder of the achievements of everyone | :41:13. | :41:16. | |
involved and now excited to move forward to the next Cup and an | :41:17. | :41:18. | |
exciting time ahead. A lot of disappointments coming | :41:19. | :41:24. | |
through against New Zealand. It will turn, keep the faith! You say that | :41:25. | :41:29. | |
but I did say do you think the Lions could win and both of you said no! I | :41:30. | :41:35. | |
think we were feeling burned after yesterday morning but we will build | :41:36. | :41:37. | |
it up during the week. When council officials knocked | :41:38. | :41:41. | |
on the doors of 650 flats on the Chalcots Estate in north | :41:42. | :41:44. | |
London on Friday night, most of the residents | :41:45. | :41:47. | |
heeded their advice to evacuate immediately due to | :41:48. | :41:49. | |
fire safety concerns. But a small number, | :41:50. | :41:51. | |
thought to be around 20, One of them is Roger Evans | :41:52. | :41:53. | |
and we can speak to him now. Hi, Roger. How are you doing this | :41:54. | :42:02. | |
morning? Good morning. To be honest I'm feeling quite nervous and | :42:03. | :42:08. | |
scared, not because of the building, I'm feeling intimidated and bullied | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
by Camden council representatives. Tell us a little bit more about | :42:13. | :42:16. | |
that. We have to say we don't have Camden council here to respond | :42:17. | :42:20. | |
directly, but what intimidation are you talking about? I went out | :42:21. | :42:25. | |
yesterday afternoon to get away from what's happening and when returned | :42:26. | :42:30. | |
to the tower block last night there were security officials outside the | :42:31. | :42:32. | |
building preventing us from getting back in. They'd actually locked the | :42:33. | :42:37. | |
doors to the building to stop people getting access. When one of the | :42:38. | :42:42. | |
security guys open a door I went to get in and I was being physically | :42:43. | :42:45. | |
restrained by his colleagues preventing me from entering my own | :42:46. | :42:49. | |
tower block. Eventually I got in, but it is now a level of | :42:50. | :42:56. | |
intimidation to prevent us from going back a building which, as far | :42:57. | :43:00. | |
as I'm concerned, is as safe now as it has been for the last however | :43:01. | :43:04. | |
many years, certainly as long as I've lived there. I understand your | :43:05. | :43:07. | |
resistance to move and it's been a nightmare for everyone involved | :43:08. | :43:11. | |
working and living there but they do have your safety at heart, they have | :43:12. | :43:14. | |
your own safety and interests at heart, I guess what they're trying | :43:15. | :43:20. | |
to do is absolutely inshore that this particular tower block is fit | :43:21. | :43:24. | |
to live in an the only way they can do that and go about their work and | :43:25. | :43:28. | |
get it done is by moving everyone out. Do you not have any sympathy | :43:29. | :43:32. | |
with that? I understand what they are trying to do but I think it is a | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
knee-jerk reaction and it is overkill. As long as I've lived | :43:37. | :43:41. | |
there we haven't known any major problems, these have only come to | :43:42. | :43:44. | |
light now so whatever level of danger we are in it's been the same | :43:45. | :43:48. | |
for years. Previously when works have needed to be done in the | :43:49. | :43:51. | |
building they have done it around us and this is the way it should carry | :43:52. | :43:55. | |
on rather than causing this element of fear and chaos. Just because they | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
have only picked up on these issues now doesn't mean they should ignore | :44:00. | :44:03. | |
them. Have they explained specifically what the issues are | :44:04. | :44:07. | |
with the tower block? We know cladding is part of it but it isn't | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
the whole story, is it? Planning isn't the main thing, they are | :44:12. | :44:17. | |
certainly going to change and remove it, we understand it is gas pipes | :44:18. | :44:23. | |
and things within the building but no one was clear. There were workmen | :44:24. | :44:28. | |
yesterday, we've been seeing no evidence that they were in there, no | :44:29. | :44:32. | |
one knows what needs to be done and how long it will take. They were | :44:33. | :44:35. | |
talking about evacuation for two to four weeks but we know with council | :44:36. | :44:39. | |
projects that they can take a lot longer. Thank you very much, Roger. | :44:40. | :44:44. | |
I appreciate the difficulties you're facing, Roger Evans, one of the | :44:45. | :44:48. | |
residence at the tower block in Camden in north London. More on that | :44:49. | :44:54. | |
later -- residents. We will speak to a member of the all party fire | :44:55. | :44:58. | |
safety and rescue group. We will get the thoughts of her later. Let's get | :44:59. | :45:01. | |
the weather with Stav. Good morning. Another lovely sunrise | :45:02. | :45:04. | |
picture from East Sussex. All the photos are coming from the | :45:05. | :45:14. | |
south and east coast because elsewhere it is pretty cloudy but I | :45:15. | :45:17. | |
will show you cloudier pictures later on. This area of low pressure | :45:18. | :45:21. | |
has brought windy weather to the north of the country. Easing down so | :45:22. | :45:27. | |
the winds here. A weather front straddling England and Wales and | :45:28. | :45:31. | |
that rain across Wales and north-west England will continue to | :45:32. | :45:35. | |
spread eastwards through the afternoon. Brighter skies further | :45:36. | :45:40. | |
north, cooler, fresh air, pushing down across Scotland and into | :45:41. | :45:42. | |
Northern Ireland and northern England as the afternoon wears on. A | :45:43. | :45:47. | |
few showers around, hit and miss and if you catch the sunshine it won't | :45:48. | :45:51. | |
be too bad as the winds ease down but cooler and fresher here, | :45:52. | :45:55. | |
mid-teens at best. England and Wales, cloudy skies, a bit of | :45:56. | :45:59. | |
brightness in higher ground but cloudy across-the-board, | :46:00. | :46:02. | |
temperatures here a notch down on yesterday, 17 to 21. For Glastonbury | :46:03. | :46:07. | |
again it will be largely cloudy, maybe some spots of rain in the air, | :46:08. | :46:11. | |
the winds remaining light and the same for the Queens tennis in | :46:12. | :46:15. | |
London, looks like we will see highs of 20 or 21, a couple of degrees | :46:16. | :46:20. | |
down on yesterday but the skies staying cloudy. Cloudy skies this | :46:21. | :46:24. | |
evening with outbreaks of rain clearing, overnight it looks like it | :46:25. | :46:28. | |
will be dry, lighter winds for all even in the north of Scotland with | :46:29. | :46:34. | |
clear skies and winds coming from the north-west, a chilly night in | :46:35. | :46:38. | |
rural places, single figures. On Monday this area of low pressure, | :46:39. | :46:41. | |
uncertainty as to its extent and timing but it looks like it will | :46:42. | :46:44. | |
bring wet weather across the western side of the UK through the day. | :46:45. | :46:48. | |
Initially it is a bright, dry start for most for Northern Ireland it | :46:49. | :46:52. | |
will turn wet through the day with increasing winds. Further and east | :46:53. | :46:57. | |
you are, a dry day and quite warm, 2425 in the south-east. For the | :46:58. | :47:03. | |
weekend, unsettled, spells of heavy rain especially on Tuesday, breezy | :47:04. | :47:07. | |
at times and quite a lot of cloud around but that said a bit of | :47:08. | :47:09. | |
sunshine here and there. We are talking about what makes us | :47:10. | :47:20. | |
happy. Thank you for all of the pictures. Lots of pictures you have | :47:21. | :47:25. | |
sent through. Joan on Twitter says that she is happy because she is on | :47:26. | :47:30. | |
holiday in about to fly out to New York for 11 nights. I am envious. | :47:31. | :47:32. | |
Now on Breakfast we join Spencer Kelly and the team for | :47:33. | :47:35. | |
We'll be back with the headlines at 0700. | :47:36. | :47:56. | |
With hardly any rail alternative, the traffic here drives | :47:57. | :48:18. | |
It's led some of the bigger thinkers to suggest radical alternatives. | :48:19. | :48:27. | |
Electric car and space travel guru Elon Musk has even | :48:28. | :48:29. | |
He envisions an Asimovian network of car and passenger carrying tubes | :48:30. | :48:36. | |
Meanwhile, back in the almost real world of Marina del Rey, | :48:37. | :48:48. | |
Two electric cars that belong to a whole apartment block. | :48:49. | :48:55. | |
Envoy operates a closed car share system. | :48:56. | :48:58. | |
The vehicles can be booked out by residents only and used for up | :48:59. | :49:02. | |
Now this is not a car that you would use to drive to work | :49:03. | :49:08. | |
and back because you'd end up paying for and hogging it | :49:09. | :49:11. | |
This is much more a car that you would use for convenience, | :49:12. | :49:16. | |
popping out for the occasional errand. | :49:17. | :49:18. | |
We believe that if it's a two car household we can | :49:19. | :49:21. | |
Experts say that for every shared car it takes 11 off the road. | :49:22. | :49:26. | |
So we are working with developers on communicating that | :49:27. | :49:29. | |
with policymakers in the city, saying if we include car sharing | :49:30. | :49:31. | |
within communities, we should be able to reduce our parking | :49:32. | :49:34. | |
The abundance of everything here in the US is evident, | :49:35. | :49:48. | |
and it's thanks in no small part to having one of the best | :49:49. | :49:51. | |
educated and most skilled workforces in the world. | :49:52. | :49:54. | |
And it is from right here that the XPRIZE | :49:55. | :49:58. | |
Now this is a competition that encourages entrepreneurs | :49:59. | :50:05. | |
Now the finalists have been announced in London this week | :50:06. | :50:09. | |
and Dan will take a look at some of them in a minute. | :50:10. | :50:16. | |
But first he travels to Tanzania to see what's in store for those | :50:17. | :50:19. | |
hoping to offer something new to the next generation. | :50:20. | :50:28. | |
We are travelling a long way from any town or city to visit some | :50:29. | :50:32. | |
of the 200 children in a village in northern Tanzania. | :50:33. | :50:38. | |
We are booting up a tablet, the first one. | :50:39. | :50:42. | |
The interesting thing here is that most of these children, | :50:43. | :50:47. | |
about all of them, have not seen a tablet before. | :50:48. | :50:51. | |
But not only that, a lot of them wouldn't have gone | :50:52. | :50:54. | |
to school even before, so the learning process | :50:55. | :50:56. | |
The whole programme is in Swahili so the local | :50:57. | :51:02. | |
I think they are going to need more tablets! | :51:03. | :51:08. | |
This is one of about 150 villages in Tanzania chosen as the test-bed | :51:09. | :51:16. | |
Within a few months, 4000 tablets will be given out. | :51:17. | :51:25. | |
The challenge, to teach a 7-11-year-olds to read, | :51:26. | :51:27. | |
write and do maths over the next year. | :51:28. | :51:31. | |
The most effective app will win $10 million. | :51:32. | :51:34. | |
The prize here though will be much more valuable. | :51:35. | :51:39. | |
Older children can walk up to four hours to get to and from school. | :51:40. | :51:43. | |
For younger ones, like seven-year-old Amina, | :51:44. | :51:45. | |
She's been lucky, she is one of those that's been chosen to take | :51:46. | :51:52. | |
At the start she has not seen a tablet before, so she's not used | :51:53. | :51:58. | |
And when it comes to reading, she doesn't know more than one | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
But John, who is with the project, thinks the tablet will help her | :52:03. | :52:07. | |
Back in the capital, Dar es Salaam, the World Food Programme is testing | :52:08. | :52:13. | |
solar panel stations that will monitor the progress of each | :52:14. | :52:16. | |
That way if a tablet breaks, the youngster can get a new one | :52:17. | :52:23. | |
without having to start lessons from the beginning again. | :52:24. | :52:29. | |
In London this week, 11 semifinalists from seven | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
different countries were chosen from the nearly 200 | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
They will refine their software before the final five are chosen | :52:39. | :52:42. | |
to go to Tanzania to start the year-long project | :52:43. | :52:46. | |
So the problem is that there are about 60-100 million kids | :52:47. | :52:53. | |
who have no access to school because school is too far. | :52:54. | :52:56. | |
Then you have 250 million more who go to school and leave | :52:57. | :53:03. | |
without ever having learned to read or write a word. | :53:04. | :53:06. | |
And these are kids in Botswana, Boston, Brighton - | :53:07. | :53:08. | |
Kids go to school all over the world and they go, | :53:09. | :53:13. | |
That's the question we are trying to address. | :53:14. | :53:18. | |
In our greatest desire, every single child on planet Earth | :53:19. | :53:20. | |
has access to a world-class education in the palm of their hand. | :53:21. | :53:23. | |
Every single child has his or her potential fulfilled. | :53:24. | :53:26. | |
That's the dream and it's not a far-fetched dream. | :53:27. | :53:28. | |
We are hoping to be back next year to see how the teams get along | :53:29. | :53:37. | |
but for now it's time to say goodbye. | :53:38. | :53:39. | |
We've brought some biscuits to say thank you and suddenly | :53:40. | :53:41. | |
the difficulties the team will face when they arrive become clear. | :53:42. | :53:45. | |
With just 20 or so tablets per village there simply won't be | :53:46. | :53:49. | |
To reduce potential jealousy, the tablets will be locked to only | :53:50. | :53:56. | |
A village mama has been chosen to settle any disputes, | :53:57. | :54:03. | |
and the scheme's partners UNESCO will be asking some other important | :54:04. | :54:06. | |
We are doing an assessment of the social and emotional | :54:07. | :54:12. | |
Because we expect quite some criticism from that side. | :54:13. | :54:20. | |
We are engaging with the psychologists, anthropologists, | :54:21. | :54:22. | |
educationalists, to try to understand what does | :54:23. | :54:26. | |
Because children go to school, they are socialised also, | :54:27. | :54:32. | |
it's not only the learning, it's learning much more, | :54:33. | :54:34. | |
Now they've got tablets they are not really talking to anybody. | :54:35. | :54:48. | |
This is my first time to see people learning by using tablets. | :54:49. | :54:51. | |
So the scene is set, there are about six or seven | :54:52. | :55:00. | |
children around each individual tablet and we've seen more. | :55:01. | :55:03. | |
The Education Department from Tanzania is here too looking | :55:04. | :55:05. | |
at this project so there's a lot at stake. | :55:06. | :55:10. | |
It's not just $10 million, it could be the answer to the whole | :55:11. | :55:15. | |
Right, what should we play, what's your favourite game? | :55:16. | :55:28. | |
We should do flags and I'll take you both on. | :55:29. | :55:32. | |
That was Dan, and now time for some fun and games with these two clowns. | :55:33. | :55:37. | |
Not being rude, they are actually trained circus clowns. | :55:38. | :55:42. | |
But they're also the bosses of a company called Two Bit Circus, | :55:43. | :55:46. | |
and they want to build an enormous high-tech fun house | :55:47. | :55:49. | |
So we are building what we call a micro amusement park. | :55:50. | :56:01. | |
It's a 50,000 square feet entertainment complex dedicated | :56:02. | :56:03. | |
There is this period of time when kit comes out of the lab, | :56:04. | :56:17. | |
before it's ready for the home, that it's perfect for out-of-home. | :56:18. | :56:20. | |
You know, you can do some VR in your home right now, | :56:21. | :56:23. | |
but it is so much cooler if it's social like this and has | :56:24. | :56:27. | |
Motion platforms, your friends can play with you. | :56:28. | :56:33. | |
Brent and Eric have been making high-tech games and showpieces | :56:34. | :56:36. | |
for corporate events for a few years. | :56:37. | :56:39. | |
Their planned amusement complex will be a permanent home to some | :56:40. | :56:42. | |
Along with new experimental experiential oddities | :56:43. | :56:47. | |
being developed by their team of computer scientists, | :56:48. | :56:50. | |
We've got machines that can cut metal and cut wood, | :56:51. | :56:58. | |
we can prototype our circuit boards here, we have people | :56:59. | :57:01. | |
And the beautiful thing about this place is that at the end | :57:02. | :57:05. | |
of almost every day, there is something new to play with. | :57:06. | :57:08. | |
The philosophy here seems to be tinker first, think later. | :57:09. | :57:18. | |
I don't actually know the point of this game. | :57:19. | :57:21. | |
This is the ultimate play space and a great | :57:22. | :57:27. | |
coming together of people with many different skills. | :57:28. | :57:30. | |
We are drawing on multiple industries. | :57:31. | :57:32. | |
So, we have a lot of people from the games industry here. | :57:33. | :57:35. | |
So all of the development that's gone into sophisticated 3-D game | :57:36. | :57:38. | |
engines like Unity and Unreal, we can put that to work building | :57:39. | :57:41. | |
My background and the background of some others here is in | :57:42. | :57:46. | |
And we bring...we come with a completely different toolkit. | :57:47. | :57:49. | |
But the combination of those two things makes programming around | :57:50. | :57:52. | |
But there is still one big build remaining. | :57:53. | :58:04. | |
We are standing right in the middle of our micro amusement park. | :58:05. | :58:08. | |
Most of it is going to be a big open space. | :58:09. | :58:11. | |
A 100 seat interactive supper club is going to be over there. | :58:12. | :58:19. | |
With $15 million backing from companies including Intel | :58:20. | :58:21. | |
and Japanese ventures, Brent hopes that this 50,000 square | :58:22. | :58:24. | |
feet space in downtown LA will become the first of many two | :58:25. | :58:28. | |
OK, I think you've got a bit of work to do. | :58:29. | :58:42. | |
We've got some work to do, it's a little empty, you can see, | :58:43. | :58:45. | |
it will be a lot more fun when we are done. | :58:46. | :58:48. | |
But, yeah, from the moment we break ground to the moment | :58:49. | :58:51. | |
we are ready to open, it's four, five months. | :58:52. | :58:54. | |
Well, if they can pull it off this is going to be an incredible space | :58:55. | :58:58. | |
and a perfect excuse for us to come back here in January | :58:59. | :59:01. | |
OK, that's it for this week, follow us on Twitter and Facebook | :59:02. | :59:06. | |
for loads more stuff throughout this and every week. | :59:07. | :59:09. | |
Thanks for watching and we'll see you soon. | :59:10. | :00:17. | |
with Rachel Burden and Christian Fraser. | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
More failed fire-safety tests on high rise buildings. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
Every sample of cladding looked at so far has failed | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
34 towers in 17 areas of England have now been identified | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Following the Grenfell Tower tragedy as many as 600 blocks may need | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
The government says work is taking place around the clock. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Hundreds of residents in north London have spent a second night | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
away from their homes after four buildings were evacuated, | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
Good morning, it's Saturday 25th June. | :00:48. | :01:09. | |

Good morning, a north-south split today, most places | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
largely dry, brighter and cooler in the north, | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
cloudy and slightly milder in the south. | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
All the details for you in about 15 minutes. | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
Fire safety tests on 34 samples of cladding from tower blocks | :01:52. | :02:02. | |
in England have failed, according to new figures released | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
That means a 100% failure rate so far. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
In North London, residents have spent a second night | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
in temporary accommodation after Camden Council evacuated four | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
high rise blocks because of fire safety concerns. | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
The government says as many as 600 high-rise blocks will need to be | :02:15. | :02:26. | |
Councils are being urged to prioritise buildings | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
So far 34 samples of cladding examined across 17 councils | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
in England haven't met the required standards, | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
The councils include Manchester, Hounslow and Plymouth. | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
Fire authorities are also having to examine exposed pipes, | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
cable ducts, escape routes and fire doors. | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
It's a huge undertaking and it's not just residential blocks. | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Checks are taking place in scores of NHS buildings, | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
Ministers say a failed test doesn't necessarily mean a building has | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
to be evacuated, but in North London hundreds of people are spending | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
a second night in temporary accommodation. | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
Camden Council says it was left with no choice because of multiple | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Some, though, still don't want to go. | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
The council officials came to the door, banging on the door, | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
"Get out, get out," but the chap round the hallway said, | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
"No, she's not going, she's getting on for 80, | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
she can't go anywhere, she's got a cat." | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
By night the pockets of resistance against evacuation are evident. | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
The council has said it has spent more than ?500,000 | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
Susanna Amend dozer joins us from our London newsroom. We can't go to | :03:43. | :04:07. | |
her, shall we go to Catriona Renton in Canberra? -- Camden. The | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
government is saying 100% failure rate, is that right? We are here to | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
talk to the residents that have been staying overnight. We have heard | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
about these 34 buildings across the 17 local authority areas where the | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
tests have happened and it's not just in London boroughs, but in | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
other parts of the country, Manchester and Plymouth among those | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
places but let me tell you about what's happening here this morning. | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
We are outside the rest centre where residents from the blocks here have | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
been staying, some for the last two nights. I'm joined by Sayid, one of | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
the residents in the tower blocks. You stayed at the rest centre last | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
night, it's much quieter here now as things ease of. Have they found you | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
somewhere to stay yet? Last night at midnight they let me know I could | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
stay with my mother. It's a waiting game of not knowing where you're | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
going that was eating me away. Sayid, you grew up here and it's way | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
you've spent your whole life, how much of a shock on Friday night was | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
it to be told you had to evacuate? It was panic, sheer panic. My heart | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
couldn't stop pounding. How long did we have to leave? It took hours to | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
find out where we needed to go, what we needed to do and neighbours were | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
at odds with each other with conflicting information. Are you | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
feeling better now you know where you're going? I feel better, it | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
feels like I'm going to start my life all over again. A little bit of | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
relief but not much batter. How are your family feeling? Phone calls, | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
texts, where are you, how are you going to be, come two hours? As much | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
as I appreciate their love towards me and others, it's not as easy as | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
you think. We have seen the frustrations on people have had, | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
some people have stayed in their flats and have been told by the | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
council they should leave and don't want to and others feel there's been | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
an overreaction, how do you feel about that? I feel for them. Not | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
knowing where you're going to stay is better... It is far worse than | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
knowing where you're going to stay the night. What can we do? They | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
created this panic. Sayid, thank you for coming to talk to us this | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
morning. As you can see, it is a lock, and quieter so perhaps the | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
initial confusion starting to ease but of course there's long-term | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
matters, people for the next three or four weeks obviously are going to | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
have to wait until they can get their normal lives back together. | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
Difficult situation, thanks very much, Roger Evans in the last hour | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
was critical of Camden council but we have a statement from them. They | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
said last night the give executive and I had a public meeting to | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
discuss the residents complaints, we construct it a giant fire inspection | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
with the London fire brigade, we anticipate these works will be | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
completed within three to four weeks. We hope to catch up with our | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
political correspondentat some stage. | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
The Government says imports such as coffee, clothing and cocoa | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
products should not see any notable price rise after Brexit. | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
48 of the world's poorest countries will continue to have duty | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
Our business correspondent Joe Lynam has more. | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
Some of our most popular ingredients and products, | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
like cocoa or bananas, are grown in some of | :07:49. | :07:50. | |
To help almost 50 of them expand their economies, | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
the EU already allows them to export their goods tariff | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
Now the government has confirmed that this will be maintained | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
It means products such as bananas, sugar and coffee should not be any | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
more expensive for UK households when imported after 2019. | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
The UK imports almost ?20 billion a year tariff free from 48 | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
developing countries, including Haiti, Ethiopia, | :08:17. | :08:18. | |
Exports of arms and defence equipment are not included | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
We want as we leave the European Union to be champions | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
of global free trade, pointing out that it has already | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
taken more people out of poverty in the last 25 years | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
than in the whole of human history up to that point. | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
We've got to keep that momentum going, we've got to get the big | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
economies opening up and we've got to give the opportunities | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
to the developing countries to trade their way out of poverty. | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
Shaming Britain quits the European customs union as well as the EU it | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
will be free to conduct its own trade deals with any country. | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
That could allow it to expand the list of poor countries | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
with tariff-free access to UK markets in future. | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
Pakistan government officials say at least 100 people are reported | :09:06. | :09:16. | |
to have been killed and dozens more badly injured when a lorry | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
transporting oil burst into flames in Punjab. | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
Our Pakistan correspondent Secunder Kermani joins | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
Secunder, what more do we know about what has happened? | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
What we believe to have happened is an oil tanker was driving outside | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
the city in the central province of Punjab in central Pakistan when it | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
overturned, we're not quite sure of the cause of the accident but after | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
it overturned it began to leak out fuel, local people came to try to | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
collect some of that fuel, at which page the fuel caught light in a | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
large explosion. I've seen footage and pictures from the scene that | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
showed dozens and dozens of charred bodies and charred vehicles by the | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
roadside because so many people were trying to collect fuel, that's what | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
explains the large death toll. Local army helicopters had been used to | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
try to transport the casualties to nearby hospitals and the blaze is | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
now under control. The death toll is expected to rise as the day goes on. | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
Thanks very much, Secunder Kermani talking to us there. | :10:31. | :10:39. | |
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has urged Theresa May | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
to set up a cross-party commission to advise her on Brexit. | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, he says such a commission | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
could "hold the ring for the differences to be fought | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
out" and "draw much of the poison from the debate". | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
Six years since making his Glastonbury debut on one | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
of its smallest stages, Ed Sheeran will be | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
closing the festival as the top billed act later on this evening. | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
Last night the US rock band Foo Fighters finally | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
had their chance to headline at Pilton Farm two years | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
after an injury meant they were forced to pull out | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
Our entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimba is there. | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
A headline set by rock band Foo Fighters... | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
He wasn't one of the headline artists, but perhaps unsurprisingly | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
he drew one of the biggest crowds so far. | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
Do you know politics is actually about everyday life. | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
The Labour leader was always going to be a big draw | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
for a left-leaning audience at a festival like this. | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
Jeremy Corbyn's appearance is another demonstration | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
of his current popularity with young people in particular. | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
Among the day's musical highlights, a vibrant, energetic Katy Perry. | :11:48. | :12:11. | |
And Liam Gallagher dedicating Don't Look Back In Anger to those | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
killed in the London and Manchester terror attacks | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
Did you watch the interview with Liam? I did see that. I didn't, I | :12:21. | :12:40. | |
saw him singing. He said I'm still a scallywag but before the gigs I go | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
straight, drinking cider vinegar and honey and he goes to bed earlier. | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
That's not very rock 'n' roll! He said the only thing he is frightened | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
of is losing his voice. He did well last night even though he was | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
singing a Noel song. We like a good panda | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
story here on Breakfast, so let's tell you about some | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
new arrivals in Germany. Meng Meng and Jiao Qing were jetted | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
in yesterday as a gift from China. Later, they were unveiled | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
at a press conference where all was going well | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
until the Chinese Ambassador got a little too close | :13:15. | :13:16. | |
to one of the cages. Have you ever seen a panda do that? | :13:17. | :13:31. | |
Pandemonium! A roar! Did you get that, pandemonium? You never see | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
them roar, they always look quite cute. If I was stuck in a small box | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
with loads of people staring at me I might give out a little roar. | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
Anyway! Let's change the subject. It's estimated that betting | :13:44. | :13:51. | |
on sports matches is worth up to ?650 billion per year | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
globally, with up to 70% Last week the FA announced | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
it was ending its sponsorships with betting companies, | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
a move praised by one family campaigning for better awareness | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
of problem gambling. You would obviously welcome this | :14:05. | :14:24. | |
move by the FA, you're pleased to hear about it? It's a good move, I | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
think the reasons behind why they have done this are different to the | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
debate about gambling addiction, this is more about corruption and | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
issues with conflict of interest and betting on sports. The wider issue | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
here is people get addicted to gambling, there's 1 million people | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
estimated to be addicted to gambling in the country and adverts that are | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
so pervasive in things like football games and sports matches drove down | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
people like my dad and it's a psychological thing. I welcome what | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
they have done, the rest of the industry should follow. Tell us | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
about your dad and how bad it got for him, something his family and | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
close friends were unaware of? It was, people call gambling addiction | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
the secret addiction and it's like if you had an alcoholic in your | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
family you would know because you would see them coming home drunk and | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
you would notice changes in behaviour but with gambling you | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
don't see any of that, and my dad particularly betted a lot online. | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
For 30 years he was gambling like EZ and Olympic sport. Any and every | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
where he could find to gamble he did, he got into huge amounts of | :15:34. | :15:41. | |
debt, he remortgaged the house and took out credit cards and loans and | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
bankrupted the family. We say about ?500,000 with the mortgage. He stole | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
from his employers to keep the whole thing going and to pay for his | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
addiction just to keep up that facade. As a family we didn't know. | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
Three years ago he came home one evening and said, look, I told you I | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
was going away for a training course over the weekend and that isn't what | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
it was. He was going to court, he was being sentenced for fraud and we | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
didn't even know he was being sentenced, he didn't even say that | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
much. We got a call from his solicitor the next evening saying | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
you might be wondering why your dad hasn't come home, he's in a van on | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
his way to prison right now and that's how it unfolded. | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
Gerry Barton has been banned for 18 months but he says... On the one | :16:31. | :16:39. | |
hand you can't hand out stiff sentences the gambling and then on | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
the other hand be hand in glove with betting companies. I wonder, do you | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
think that even if there was no e-mail 's advertising or text | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
messages, wouldn't gamble is just fine gambling? Like any addiction | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
you can find it anywhere? As a society we need to look at ways to | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
make sure people are not falling into the trap. People who do have | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
this addiction or personality trait find it easy to get hooked. When he | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
went to prison, his phone came back, they gave it to us, you cannot have | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
one in prison. There were hundreds and hundreds of text messages came | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
through from dozens of different sites, encouraging him to return and | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
gamble. Where are you? We miss you... Are free bonus for betting... | :17:25. | :17:32. | |
When I watch the football, between the first and the second half this | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
betting that comes up and I think, like a flutter. But I would not be | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
thinking about it normally. Hundreds of thousands of people also gamble | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
responsibly. It is a legitimate business and there is a role for | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
betting companies within our society. There isn't there are a | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
legitimate industry. That is important to say. There is a | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
regulator and they turn over a lot of money and they are an integral | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
part of our society. But we need to look for more social responsibility. | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
This is the 21st of century and people have addictions. Our message | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
is really that what the FA has done is a good step and we would like to | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
see the rest of the industry do something similar. How was your | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
father? Is he getting back on his feet? He is. He is trying hard. It | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
is difficult to get work with a conviction and we are both Audi | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
pushing this message saying that gambling is a serious addiction. | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
Let's put it on the same stage as alcohol and drug addiction. My | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
father is home. My mother has been quite kind and stuck by him. A huge | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
impact on the entire family. Thank you for coming in. | :18:44. | :18:44. | |

More failed safety tests on tower blocks across England - | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
every sample of cladding examined so far is a fire risk. | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
Officials investigating a cyber attack on the Houses of Parliament | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
say the threat has been contained - it's believed hackers attempted | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
Am afraid we cannot promise the glorious sunshine of last weekend. | :19:01. | :19:18. | |
But we can bring your sunrise from this morning. It is right. It is not | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
too bad. We had a little cloud yesterday and temperatures reached | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
close to mid-20s. A little cooler and fresh today with more cloud | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
around, particularly for England and Wales. An area of low pressure | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
across the north of Scotland which bought them a windy day. That will | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
continue to push away today so the wind is easing here and a | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
brightening sky appearing across the northern half of the country. | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
England and Wales will have a weather front bringing cloud and | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
outbreaks of rain. Showers across the north-west of the Highlands. The | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
odd heavy one. Good spells of sunshine around. Winds falling | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
lighter but a cooler air mass today that you will notice. Temperatures | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
best around 15 or 17 degrees. England and Wales have a lot of | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
cloud around. Getting into the north of England late this afternoon but | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
for the south-east and into the south England and Wales, Alp breaks | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
of light and patchy rain. It looks like it could be cloudy and damp at | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
Glastonbury through the day. Similar picture as well fall the tennis. -- | :20:27. | :20:36. | |
for the tennis. A few degrees down on the values of yesterday. Cloudy | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
this evening with the odd spot of rain and eventually that will clear | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
away and cooler fresher conditions push down from the north. A chilly | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
night to come. These are the town and city values but in the | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
countryside it could be single figures. This is the pressure chart | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
into Monday and Tuesday. This area of low pressure is likely to bring | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
wet weather through Monday and Tuesday. Uncertainty to its track | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
and extent but it looks like Monday, to begin with, a fresh start but | :21:06. | :21:15. | |
across southern and eastern areas quite warm. Tuesday rain will spread | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
northwards and eastwards. Spells of heavy rain, and a good watering for | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
the garden after the hot weather. Quite breezy because of the low | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
pressure and sunshine will be limited as well. | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :21:32. | :21:32. | |
Time now for a look at the newspapers. | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
Anand Menon from the UK in a Changing Europe research group | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
is here to tell us what's caught his eye. | :21:43. | :21:44. | |
First of all, let's have a look at the front pages this morning. The | :21:45. | :21:55. | |
front page of the Observer, this is a story following on from the | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
Grenfell Tower tragedy in which they look at public safety in particular | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
in schools. They say there has been a turnaround in certain safety | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
standards which will be applied to schools and there was some | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
suggestion that sprinters would not be required they are reviewing that | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
now and saying that they absolutely must be fitted. The Sunday Times | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
over blackmail story on the front page there. 10,000 people who work | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
in Westminster were to change the password. We will shortly. Same | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
story on the Sunday Telegraph this morning. Concern is the blackmail be | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
an issue after the security e-mail 's passwords was potentially | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
compromised. And the Mail on Sunday has... A bit more than the story in | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
Newsweek magazine this week. Effectively it is the same interview | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
but they have gone back to the lady who conducted the interview and got | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
a few more details from her about what he said. The reluctant Prince | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
Harry. That is the front pages. And we have been looking at the week it | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
was and the offer that Theresa May put on the table for the citizens, | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
European citizens. They are not happy. No. I think the story in the | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
Observer brings out the human element of this. They talk to EU | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
citizens who are living here and the impact that the uncertainty is | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
having on their life. Whatever deal we get with the European Union, we | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
will impose new rules and it will impact some people because they fall | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
on the wrong side of them. I thought it was interesting that there is a | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
human face put on it so it is not merely a question of numbers. Laura | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
Kearns Burke suggested... I won't ask you, this is what you do day to | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
day, she suggested at some point will will have a hybrid court where | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
we have the European Court of Justice and British judges sitting | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
together in the same court. A model exists? Does it exist anyway? They | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
have variations on that for trade deals. We spoke about a trade deal | :23:53. | :24:02. | |
with the United States and they were going to create a mechanism to | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
settle disputes. The fact is they don't necessarily trust us and we | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
don't necessarily want to use their court. So having a hybrid teams to | :24:11. | :24:24. | |
have -- seems to be a good idea. I thought this story was interesting, | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
just because we see more and more of it now. We will face is trade. | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
E-mail is a good way to contact MPs, they are more accessible. As they | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
begin to get paranoid about what is in their inbox and who can see it, | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
that will have repercussions for how easy it is to contact them. The | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
foreign state, the headline refers to, who are they talking about in | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
particular? The story says is that people are pointing the finger at | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
Russia. But it is notoriously difficult to think of print anybody. | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
The country mentioned is Russia. More detail in the Washington Post | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
about the attack on the Russian attack on Americans through the | :25:06. | :25:07. | |
election season. Quite extraordinary. It is aimed at every | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
level. Voting, Facebook, social media, politicians and it is | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
widespread. It is a massive issue because so much about politics is | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
now electronic in our recent election a of campaigning took place | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
on Facebook. It was targeted. You can imagine if hackers could get | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
into that than they could subvert the democratic process. Two versions | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
of the Jeremy Corbyn story this morning. The Sunday Express has this | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
headline of him speaking at Glastonbury yesterday and the fact | :25:43. | :25:45. | |
that he decided to be there rather than mark Armed Forces Day. The | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
Sunday Mirror paints it differently. JC and the Sunshine band. Many | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
supporters at Glastonbury for Jeremy Corbyn. It is a left-wing field | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
there, Sophie cannot do it there he can't do it anywhere. Most two | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
stories together underline how differently you see the world | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
depending on the newspaper you read. Corbyn is the star of the show at | :26:11. | :26:17. | |
Glastonbury and Mirror, otherwise he is refusing to attend armed services | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
day. I don't think that crowd there was totally unanimous in their | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
support. Now, but it was a healthy majority in terms of reaction. He | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
would be there. He gave up his ticket to come and beat you. Why | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
were you going to be there? My whole family are there at the moment. They | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
have a connection with Radiohead. The drummer is my brother. That is | :26:43. | :26:50. | |
so cool! Why on earth are you on the sofar?! You could have had backstage | :26:51. | :26:59. | |
tickets... Yes but I don't like to change my mind close to. And I am | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
now the sort of person who secretly cheers when I hear it is raining | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
there. Plus, I am here for Rachel. Women's cricket. I am a little | :27:09. | :27:14. | |
disappointed about this. I had big hopes row team. I mean, it is not | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
over yet. Be it lost their first game. I came to from the other side, | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
for a couple of reasons. India is a country where attitudes women are | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
not exactly progressive and I think a successful Indian women's cricket | :27:30. | :27:32. | |
team could do so much for women in India. The second thing I thought | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
was brilliant was the captain of the Indian team came out with the best | :27:37. | :27:39. | |
quote ever. After the game a reporter said to her who is your | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
favourite male cricketer then and she said that when the men play due | :27:44. | :27:49. | |
to their favourite female cricketer is? But they are not professional in | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
India where as they are in Australia in the UK? Absolutely. But if | :27:54. | :27:58. | |
women's cricket will catch on it needs to catch on in India because | :27:59. | :28:02. | |
they are the cricketing capital of the world. I imagine all potential | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
players out there. Like women's football. It is growing fast. | :28:09. | :28:11. | |
Andrew Marr is on BBC One after Breakfast this morning - | :28:12. | :28:14. | |
Andrew, what's on today's programme? | :28:15. | :28:17. | |
I am glad you have been talking about cricket because among my | :28:18. | :28:22. | |
newspaper reviewers today is Henry Blaeu felt, cake may be involved. My | :28:23. | :28:36. | |
main political guest is the man many Tory MPs want to be the next Prime | :28:37. | :28:41. | |
Minister, that is David Davis. For the Labour Party, Debbie Abrahams is | :28:42. | :28:45. | |
the Work and Pensions spokesman. She will talk about whether it is really | :28:46. | :28:48. | |
possible for labour to end Conservative austerity. And I am | :28:49. | :28:54. | |
joined by Andrew Scott, Moriarty too many people from the Sherlock series | :28:55. | :28:59. | |
but he is also studying Hamlet in the West End at the moment. Look | :29:00. | :29:08. | |
forward to that later on. Later this morning we will meet to people who | :29:09. | :29:11. | |
have made it onto this year's happy list. We got talking about this and | :29:12. | :29:16. | |
wondering what makes you happy. What makes you happy right now? For us | :29:17. | :29:20. | |
this morning we found that one of the production team has got a | :29:21. | :29:23. | |
brand-new puppy, a gorgeous little thing. Watch this. Look at him | :29:24. | :29:29. | |
attempting to get down the stairs. It is a huge leap when you are that | :29:30. | :29:33. | |
age. So what makes you happy this morning? No surprise that we have | :29:34. | :29:37. | |
had plenty of animal pictures from you. This is from Swindon. These are | :29:38. | :29:45. | |
two Romanian street dogs that she rescued and every morning she wakes | :29:46. | :29:49. | |
up to their smiles. And this is Ronnie and Reggie, two new kittens | :29:50. | :29:54. | |
in Sheffield. They are exploring their new environment. If you have | :29:55. | :30:01. | |
any non- animal pictures, maybe a garden... No-one has tweeted as a | :30:02. | :30:05. | |
picture of their children. How about your Sunnyside eggs? Obviously no | :30:06. | :30:10. | |
1's children is making them happy at this time of the morning. Headlines | :30:11. | :30:12. | |
are coming up. Stay with us. with Rachel Burden and Christian | :30:13. | :30:45. | |
Fraser. Coming up before 8am, | :30:46. | :30:50. | |
Holly will be here with the sport but first a summary of this | :30:51. | :30:53. | |
morning's main news. Fire safety tests on 34 samples | :30:54. | :30:56. | |
of cladding from tower blocks in England have failed, | :30:57. | :30:59. | |
according to new figures released That means a 100% | :31:00. | :31:02. | |
failure rate so far. In North London, residents have | :31:03. | :31:05. | |
spent a second night in temporary accommodation | :31:06. | :31:07. | |
after Camden Council evacuated four high rise blocks because of | :31:08. | :31:09. | |
fire safety concerns. The government says as many as 600 | :31:10. | :31:11. | |
high-rise blocks will need to be Councils are being urged | :31:12. | :31:24. | |
to prioritise buildings So far 34 samples of cladding | :31:25. | :31:28. | |
examined across 17 councils in England haven't met | :31:29. | :31:34. | |
the required standards, The councils include Manchester, | :31:35. | :31:36. | |
Hounslow and Plymouth. Fire authorities are also having | :31:37. | :31:43. | |
to examine exposed pipes, cable ducts, escape | :31:44. | :31:48. | |
routes and fire doors. It's a huge undertaking and it's not | :31:49. | :31:51. | |
just residential blocks. Checks are taking place | :31:52. | :31:53. | |
in scores of NHS buildings, Ministers say a failed test doesn't | :31:54. | :31:56. | |
necessarily mean a building has to be evacuated, but in North London | :31:57. | :32:05. | |
hundreds of people are spending a second night in | :32:06. | :32:08. | |
temporary accommodation. Camden Council says it was left | :32:09. | :32:12. | |
with no choice because of multiple Some, though, still | :32:13. | :32:15. | |
don't want to go. The council officials came | :32:16. | :32:20. | |
to the door, banging on the door, "Get out, get out," but the chap | :32:21. | :32:23. | |
round the hallway said, "No, she's not going, | :32:24. | :32:26. | |
she's getting on for 80, she can't go anywhere, | :32:27. | :32:29. | |
she's got a cat." By night the pockets of resistance | :32:30. | :32:35. | |
against evacuation are evident. A cyber attack on the parliamentary | :32:36. | :32:42. | |
computer system appears to have been contained according | :32:43. | :32:48. | |
to government sources. Officials at the Houses | :32:49. | :32:50. | |
of Parliament said there had been a determined attempt by hackers | :32:51. | :32:54. | |
to identify weak passwords for e-mail accounts used by MPs, | :32:55. | :32:56. | |
peers and their staff. Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen has | :32:57. | :32:59. | |
raised concerns that it could leave The National Cyber Security Centre | :33:00. | :33:02. | |
is now investigating what happened. We know that our public | :33:03. | :33:10. | |
services were attacked, so it's not at all surprisingly | :33:11. | :33:14. | |
that there should be an attempt It's a warning to everybody, | :33:15. | :33:17. | |
whether they're in Parliament or elsewhere, that they need | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
to do everything possible to maintain their own | :33:22. | :33:24. | |
cyber security, including having complex | :33:25. | :33:25. | |
and therefore safer codewords. Hundreds have been killed and many | :33:26. | :33:46. | |
injured when a lorry carrying oil burst into flames in the job said | :33:47. | :33:52. | |
Pakistani authorities. People had gathered to get fuel from the | :33:53. | :33:57. | |
vehicle which overturned and then it caught alight. Firefighters have | :33:58. | :34:00. | |
been tackling the blaze, which is said to be under control, although | :34:01. | :34:02. | |
the road remains closed. The Archbishop of Canterbury, | :34:03. | :34:08. | |
Justin Welby, has urged Theresa May to set up a cross-party commission | :34:09. | :34:11. | |
to advise her on Brexit. Writing in the Mail on Sunday, | :34:12. | :34:14. | |
he says such a commission could "hold the ring | :34:15. | :34:17. | |
for the differences to be fought out" and "draw much | :34:18. | :34:20. | |
of the poison from the debate". The Foo Fighters finally | :34:21. | :34:22. | |
took the top billed slot at last night's | :34:23. | :34:26. | |
Glastonbury festival. The band's front man Dave Grohl | :34:27. | :34:27. | |
apologised for being two years late to the gig and performed | :34:28. | :34:31. | |
a number of their best known songs. They were originally meant | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
to headline the festival in 2015 but that injury forced them to pull | :34:35. | :34:38. | |
out just weeks before. You've heard of Crufts, | :34:39. | :34:44. | |
but there's an alternative dog competition that you might | :34:45. | :34:50. | |
not be familiar with. She's a Neapolitan mastiff and she's | :34:51. | :34:53. | |
just been named this year's She beat 13 other contenders | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
to claim the title, winning The big-jowled crowd-pleaser won | :34:59. | :35:04. | |
over judges by sprawling across the stage instead | :35:05. | :35:08. | |
of doing any tricks. The event usually includes | :35:09. | :35:10. | |
lots of dogs who have been rescued. Martha isn't bothered, she collapsed | :35:11. | :35:21. | |
and the judges liked it. I like her style! I was pleased to see at | :35:22. | :35:26. | |
Glastonbury yesterday there was a tent if you wanted to watch the | :35:27. | :35:32. | |
Lions. Many revellers may have done, having had some sleep or very | :35:33. | :35:38. | |
little,... Wouldn't have helped them, they would have been better | :35:39. | :35:42. | |
going to watch the Foo Fighters. Not the result we wanted. Such a | :35:43. | :35:47. | |
positive start. Flashes of brilliance. It was the bounce of the | :35:48. | :35:52. | |
ball. Two inches short in the first two minutes? Five attempts at tries | :35:53. | :35:58. | |
but we got two but the problem was the All Blacks had three attempts | :35:59. | :36:02. | |
and they took all three. 13-15 was the end result but not in our | :36:03. | :36:04. | |
favour. Warren Gatland is looking ahead to | :36:05. | :36:09. | |
the next test on Saturday. Lions head coach Warren Gatland | :36:10. | :36:14. | |
said his side must be more physical after they were tamed | :36:15. | :36:17. | |
by the All Blacks in the first George North and Jonathan Joseph | :36:18. | :36:21. | |
will both start against the Hurricanes in | :36:22. | :36:27. | |
Wellington on Tuesday. returns as captain, | :36:28. | :36:28. | |
he was skipper for their best win on the tour against | :36:29. | :36:33. | |
the Chiefs last week. And Gatland believes | :36:34. | :36:35. | |
all their problems from the first Those things are all fixable for me. | :36:36. | :36:44. | |
The All Blacks haven't played champagne rugby and throwing the | :36:45. | :36:48. | |
ball all over the place, fairness to them, they were very direct up front | :36:49. | :36:52. | |
so we need to make sure we're better in those areas in terms of combating | :36:53. | :36:54. | |
them for next week. It was a really disappointing start | :36:55. | :36:55. | |
for England, the hosts of this They lost by 35 runs | :36:56. | :36:58. | |
against India in Derby. It would have been a record-breaking | :36:59. | :37:02. | |
victory if they'd made their target Think globally, what women's cricket | :37:03. | :37:03. | |

the point about the size Locally, well, perhaps decent crowd | :37:12. | :37:14. | |

by dropped England catches. This one was beyond Beaumont | :37:30. | :37:32. | |
on the boundary but fast bowler Whenever England seemed to be | :37:33. | :37:35. | |
getting close in the chase, runouts held them back, | :37:36. | :37:40. | |
that was captain Heather Knight Fran Wilson played the innings | :37:41. | :37:42. | |
of her career so far, Replays revealing her | :37:43. | :37:56. | |
bat wasn't grounded. In the end England finished 35 runs | :37:57. | :38:01. | |
short, their preparation had seemed strong, I wondered if on this big | :38:02. | :38:04. | |
occasion some of the players We didn't start the way we wanted | :38:05. | :38:07. | |
to which meant we were always struggling uphill, but something | :38:08. | :38:11. | |
we will have to look at. I don't think it was anything | :38:12. | :38:14. | |
to do with freezing, we didn't quite bowl the way | :38:15. | :38:17. | |
we wanted to and India really put A significant and even historic | :38:18. | :38:20. | |
result in women's cricket but it Remember initially all the eight | :38:21. | :38:25. | |
teams play each other in a round robin stage and England | :38:26. | :38:34. | |
will expect to win their next match in Leicester against | :38:35. | :38:38. | |
Pakistan on Tuesday. Mind you, they expected | :38:39. | :38:40. | |
to win their opening match Lewis Hamilton said the pressure | :38:41. | :38:42. | |
was amazing after he produced what he called a beautiful lap | :38:43. | :38:54. | |
to take pole for this afternoon's When the session was held up | :38:55. | :38:58. | |
by a crash, the drivers only had time for one flying lap | :38:59. | :39:02. | |
at the end of qualifying and Hamilton went almost half | :39:03. | :39:05. | |
a second quicker than his Mercedes The lap just got better | :39:06. | :39:08. | |
and better throughout. I saw Valtteri just ahead, | :39:09. | :39:20. | |
I knew he was doing a good lap, I came across and I knew coming | :39:21. | :39:24. | |
down to the last corner, Roger Federer is in really | :39:25. | :39:27. | |
good form on grass He reached the final | :39:28. | :39:32. | |
of the Halle Open in Germany with a straight sets win | :39:33. | :39:36. | |
over Karen Khachanov. Federer is back up to fifth | :39:37. | :39:38. | |
in the world rankings and he'll be looking for a 19th | :39:39. | :39:41. | |
Grand Slam title at Wimbledon, And in the other warm-up event | :39:42. | :39:44. | |
at Queen's Marin Cilic beat Gilles Muller to set up a meeting | :39:45. | :39:51. | |
with Feliciano Lopez Cilic has only had his serve broken | :39:52. | :39:54. | |
once in the tournament so far. Petra Kvitova says she's feeling no | :39:55. | :40:04. | |
pain and couldn't have imagined a better comeback as she | :40:05. | :40:07. | |
reached her first final since her playing hand was injured | :40:08. | :40:09. | |
in a knife attack six months ago. She'll face Australia's | :40:10. | :40:13. | |
Ashleigh Barty in the final of the Aegon Classic in Birmingham, | :40:14. | :40:15. | |
after her semi-final opponent Lucie Safarova was | :40:16. | :40:18. | |
forced to retire. There were some strong performances | :40:19. | :40:24. | |
from Great Britain's athletes at the European Team | :40:25. | :40:26. | |
Championships in Lille. At one point they led | :40:27. | :40:28. | |
the standings but they finished the second day of | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
three in third place. Eilidh Doyle produced one | :40:32. | :40:33. | |
of the best performances, running a season-best | :40:34. | :40:35. | |
in the 400-metre hurdles. Aiden O'Brien finished | :40:36. | :40:39. | |
Royal Ascot as champion trainer And the feature race | :40:40. | :40:41. | |
was won by the 9-2 shot The second-favourite stormed through | :40:42. | :40:45. | |
in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes, with around three quarters | :40:46. | :40:49. | |
of a furlong to go. England will meet Malaysia this | :40:50. | :40:56. | |
afternoon in the third/fourth placed playoff at the Hockey | :40:57. | :40:59. | |
World League in London. They were beaten 2-0 | :41:00. | :41:01. | |
by the Netherlands in the semi-finals but if they win | :41:02. | :41:03. | |
this afternoon, they'll reach the World League final | :41:04. | :41:06. | |
in India this December. It was a largely disappointing | :41:07. | :41:14. | |
Saturday for Britain's boxers at the European Championships | :41:15. | :41:16. | |
in Ukraine, picking up just one Peter McGrail in the | :41:17. | :41:19. | |
bantamweight division. He had to shake off a point | :41:20. | :41:23. | |
deduction and a partisan crown to beat home favourite | :41:24. | :41:26. | |
Mykola Butsenko on a split decision Now how about this | :41:27. | :41:29. | |
for a quick recovery? Britain's Scott Redding was in fifth | :41:30. | :41:31. | |
place during qualifying when this happened with five minutes | :41:32. | :41:34. | |
of the session remaining. Now Moto GP riders | :41:35. | :41:39. | |
are a determined bunch. Down, but far from out, | :41:40. | :41:41. | |
the 24-year-old sprinted back to the pits and when he got | :41:42. | :41:43. | |
there jumped on a spare bike and went back out like | :41:44. | :41:47. | |
nothing had happened. He was rewarded for his efforts | :41:48. | :41:49. | |
getting his fifth place back Impressive, quite a recovery, don't | :41:50. | :41:56. | |
think I could manage that one. The King at the list of the Lions to | :41:57. | :42:00. | |
play the hurricanes on Tuesday, Gatlin has made it clear the midweek | :42:01. | :42:04. | |
team is in with a shout of making the Test team if anyone plays well. | :42:05. | :42:09. | |
-- Gatlin and. Out of that side, who might be putting their name out | :42:10. | :42:14. | |
there to be considered? Possibly Joe Marler, there was a problem with the | :42:15. | :42:21. | |
scrum. They needed to slow the breakdown down, improve the | :42:22. | :42:25. | |
scrummage and that is why read Best has been included, he's one of the | :42:26. | :42:30. | |
best when it comes to that. And Haskel and Tipperary in the back | :42:31. | :42:34. | |
row, interesting to see how they get on. James has tweeted, stop | :42:35. | :42:38. | |
complaining about the Lions Test match, a great game with many | :42:39. | :42:43. | |
positives. You're right, it was a great game. | :42:44. | :42:43. | |
It's one of the biggest sporting events taking place this year, | :42:44. | :42:46. | |
but the chances are you've never heard of it! | :42:47. | :42:49. | |
Thousands of athletes from 23 islands around the world have | :42:50. | :42:51. | |
travelled to Gotland in Sweden for the 2017 Island Games. | :42:52. | :42:54. | |
They'll battle it out over a week of sporting events each | :42:55. | :42:57. | |
Jen Smith has travelled to Sweden to meet athletes as they prepare | :42:58. | :43:02. | |
23 island nations each with small populations come together every two | :43:03. | :43:18. | |
years to compete in their own bespoke competition. Some have | :43:19. | :43:22. | |
travelled from the Arctic, others from warmer climes. So why? The | :43:23. | :43:28. | |
Island Games is a wonderful event for islands with a population of | :43:29. | :43:33. | |
less than I think 100,000, but it is an event where we can come together | :43:34. | :43:36. | |
regardless of the distance in between us, we can come together and | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
celebrate what we all love to do and what we do best to represent our | :43:41. | :43:45. | |
islands. For us Gibraltarians definitely because Olympics, | :43:46. | :43:49. | |
Europeans, we don't have a chance of meddling, this is where we have the | :43:50. | :43:52. | |
chance of meddling finally so this is a big deal for us. It's about | :43:53. | :43:57. | |
competition but also about making friends and having fun and meeting a | :43:58. | :44:07. | |
lot of cool people. This year Scotland is the host, a Swedish | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
island in the Baltic Sea and around 60,000 people live here -- Gotland. | :44:12. | :44:18. | |
But one week in June 2000 competitors from islands as far | :44:19. | :44:21. | |
afield as St Helier in the South Atlantic and Bermuda in the | :44:22. | :44:24. | |
Caribbean will come here. So how much work was involved in putting | :44:25. | :44:28. | |
that altogether? How much work? A lot of work. I've been employed for | :44:29. | :44:34. | |
2.5 is and we've been at this since 2007 or something like that so it's | :44:35. | :44:37. | |
ten years in the making basically from the first thought of May be | :44:38. | :44:42. | |
hosting the Games again to maybe this date. This day could see the | :44:43. | :44:47. | |
beginning of an Olympic career like it has for some well-known Brits. We | :44:48. | :44:51. | |
have some veterans in the cycling club and they want to beat Mark | :44:52. | :44:55. | |
Cavendish, funny to see where he's gone now, there's some young | :44:56. | :44:58. | |
hopefuls from the Isle of Man following in his footstep so we will | :44:59. | :45:03. | |
see where they are in a few years. For some it is closer than that. | :45:04. | :45:07. | |
Andy from the Isle of Wight hopes to make it to the Gold Coast next | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
April. I compete for Scotland in the, while games, I've done the last | :45:12. | :45:16. | |
three Games and the qualifying distances 67.5, which I'm sure this | :45:17. | :45:20. | |
year, I want that qualifying distance and get the trip to | :45:21. | :45:23. | |
Australia next year. While it's known as the friendly Games, there's | :45:24. | :45:26. | |
still some serious competition. You're watching | :45:27. | :45:27. | |
Breakfast from BBC News. More failed safety tests on tower | :45:28. | :45:29. | |
blocks across England - every sample of cladding examined | :45:30. | :45:34. | |
so far is a fire risk. Officials investigating a cyber | :45:35. | :45:38. | |
attack on the Houses of Parliament say the threat has been contained - | :45:39. | :45:41. | |
it's believed hackers attempted Thank you so much for some of the | :45:42. | :45:59. | |
gorgeous pictures you have been sending us this morning. We will | :46:00. | :46:03. | |
look at more of them a little later on but making as much happier than | :46:04. | :46:07. | |
the weather today. Hello! What a happy picture. There are some good | :46:08. | :46:13. | |
pictures out there. I put the satellite picture in to show you the | :46:14. | :46:17. | |
gaps in the cloud at the moment because there is a lot of brightness | :46:18. | :46:20. | |
this morning. More cloud further west and it looks like Scotland and | :46:21. | :46:23. | |
Northern Ireland are doing the best with the sunshine. You can see this | :46:24. | :46:28. | |
corner of Scotland but notice the pictures I've been getting from the | :46:29. | :46:31. | |
Midlands and across southern and eastern areas there are good holes | :46:32. | :46:35. | |
in the cloud that thick cloud awaits in the winds and it will spread it | :46:36. | :46:41. | |
eastwards into the Midlands, towards Eastern and south-eastern England. | :46:42. | :46:44. | |
Further north it is a bright picture and we will lose those strong winds | :46:45. | :46:48. | |
slowly through the day across the Northern Isles and north-east of | :46:49. | :46:51. | |
Scotland. Getting sunshine, it will not be too bad. A few sunshiny bits | :46:52. | :47:01. | |
around. Sunny skies getting on towards northern England but the | :47:02. | :47:04. | |
weather front will bring thick cloud through Wales for much of the | :47:05. | :47:13. | |
Midlands and into the south as well. Grant Levens -- grey and leaden | :47:14. | :47:20. | |
skies. Temperatures around 18 or 19 degrees in the same to the tennis in | :47:21. | :47:26. | |
London. You will be lucky if you catch any brightness. It will stay | :47:27. | :47:30. | |
great to end the day. The weather front will clear off towards the | :47:31. | :47:34. | |
near continent overnight and then the wind light everywhere. Chilly, | :47:35. | :47:41. | |
chillier than we have been used to. Down to single figures in rural | :47:42. | :47:46. | |
areas. High-pressure dominates and this area of low pressure will come | :47:47. | :47:51. | |
into play later on in in Monday for increasing cloud and range in | :47:52. | :47:56. | |
Northern Ireland and western fringes of England. So most of the country, | :47:57. | :48:00. | |
Friday to start the working week. We're skipping or some slightly | :48:01. | :48:03. | |
warmer air off the near continent so it could be looking at the mid-20s | :48:04. | :48:07. | |
Celsius again across the south and east. The rest of the week wears on | :48:08. | :48:11. | |
areas of low pressure allow you to bring breezy spells and heavy rain. | :48:12. | :48:16. | |
It will be breezy as low pressure will be in charge and there will be | :48:17. | :48:20. | |
a lot of cloud. We could see something a little thundery pushing | :48:21. | :48:24. | |
off the near continent as well. A lot of uncertainty so keep checking | :48:25. | :48:29. | |
the forecast. Let's whisk you away from all that cloud now. Time for | :48:30. | :48:31. | |
the travel show. Hello and welcome to the Travel Show | :48:32. | :48:53. | |
with me, Ade Adepitan, And it's the perfect place to kick | :48:54. | :48:56. | |
back, relax and look at some of our favourite stories | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
from the programme Let's kick-off with | :49:02. | :49:03. | |
Rajan's truly epic As the country prepares | :49:04. | :49:22. | |
to celebrate its 70th anniversary of independence, | :49:23. | :49:25. | |
in March, he set off to travel from Gujarat in the West, | :49:26. | :49:27. | |
all the way to Assam in the east, and he met some amazing people, | :49:28. | :49:31. | |
including the mystical dancing monks Majuli Island is home to 22 | :49:32. | :49:34. | |
monasteries or satras. Initially established | :49:35. | :49:47. | |
in the 16th century Boys are instructed from a very | :49:48. | :49:50. | |
young age in the religion he preached, Vaishnavism, | :49:51. | :50:00. | |
an offshoot of Hinduism. The monks are celibate, | :50:01. | :50:07. | |
and according to their beliefs, they worship only one God, | :50:08. | :50:09. | |
follow a vegetarian diet And here, at Uttar Kamalabari, | :50:10. | :50:16. | |
the doctrine includes This form of classical dance is now | :50:17. | :50:25. | |
recognised by the authorities as a genre in its own right, | :50:26. | :50:32. | |
and many of these monks have That was amazing, thank | :50:33. | :50:37. | |
you very much indeed. I know you spend a lifetime learning | :50:38. | :50:45. | |
the skills of this, can I have a go? There are 64 positions in this | :50:46. | :50:49. | |
classical dance and I'm having And I just think I'm | :50:50. | :51:09. | |
going to leave it to the experts. Sometimes you just have to give up | :51:10. | :51:24. | |
and let them carry on. Sitting on this beach in Ghana, | :51:25. | :51:35. | |
it is hard to believe that only a few months ago I was a world away | :51:36. | :51:56. | |
in terms of geography and temperature, when I took | :51:57. | :52:00. | |
a special trip to Finnish Lapland to meet the Sami people who live | :52:01. | :52:03. | |
a life dominated by snow, reindeer and where temperatures | :52:04. | :52:06. | |
sometimes drop There are more reindeers | :52:07. | :52:08. | |
than people in Lapland. These animals need large areas | :52:09. | :52:19. | |
of unspoiled forest to find the little food buried | :52:20. | :52:22. | |
under the snow. So there you see how | :52:23. | :52:26. | |
the reindeer live in the winter. They get their own food | :52:27. | :52:29. | |
in the forest, they eat the lichen, they are digging the snow off | :52:30. | :52:32. | |
and the eat the lichen on the land. There they are, they are all coming | :52:33. | :52:37. | |
down from the hills. Reindeer herding | :52:38. | :52:40. | |
is in Petri's blood. These animals have been | :52:41. | :52:48. | |
crucial to his family for survival for generations, | :52:49. | :52:51. | |
providing food, Petri supplements their diet | :52:52. | :52:52. | |
to increase their chances So how cold does it | :52:53. | :53:34. | |
get out here, Petri? Three weeks ago it was -44. | :53:35. | :53:47. | |
-44? The coldest it has been is 1999 | :53:48. | :53:56. | |
January, one week and it was -55. Oh, my! | :53:57. | :54:02. | |
Now it is like the summer! Are we going to build the fire? | :54:03. | :54:06. | |
Yes. Well, I've had an amazing time | :54:07. | :54:08. | |
here in Finnish Lapland, It's the furthest north | :54:09. | :54:20. | |
in the world I've ever been to, and it feels like I'm | :54:21. | :54:27. | |
at one with nature. You know what, it's been such | :54:28. | :54:32. | |
a privilege to spend time Back in April, Henry | :54:33. | :54:34. | |
travelled to Thailand to pay a visit to the world's first ever | :54:35. | :55:05. | |
elephant hospital, just in time to meet their newest | :55:06. | :55:08. | |
and cutest arrival. We have all kinds of | :55:09. | :55:11. | |
illnesses, sicknesses, Some have diarrhoea, | :55:12. | :55:16. | |
constipation, cataracts. Some have serious like | :55:17. | :55:24. | |
cancer and tumours. The most difficult cases | :55:25. | :55:29. | |
are the victims of landmines. For Motala, each day starts | :55:30. | :55:37. | |
with her prosthetic being fitted, It weighs a good, | :55:38. | :55:41. | |
at least 15 kilograms. In the early morning | :55:42. | :55:57. | |
and late afternoon, when the sun is not too hot, | :55:58. | :56:00. | |
Motala will walk out Adult females weigh just under | :56:01. | :56:03. | |
three tonnes on average. So the prosthetic is needed to give | :56:04. | :56:15. | |
vital relief to her other three legs How long did it take her to get used | :56:16. | :56:19. | |
to the prosthetic leg? Then she gets used to it? | :56:20. | :56:25. | |
Yes. The focus here is an working | :56:26. | :56:31. | |
with elephant owners in the community, to help any animal | :56:32. | :56:37. | |
that needs medical attention. They also have a nursery section | :56:38. | :56:46. | |
and I'm fortunate enough to be So how old is the baby? | :56:47. | :56:56. | |
The baby's name. His name is Mina. | :56:57. | :57:06. | |
It is humbling to see the connection Doctor Kay has with these animals, | :57:07. | :57:11. | |
It is amazing to see elephants like these that would have otherwise | :57:12. | :57:25. | |
died in the wild to be thriving in the hospital, and spending time | :57:26. | :57:29. | |
with Doctor Kay and Soraida, learning the ins and outs | :57:30. | :57:32. | |
of what goes on here has been an absolutely amazing experience | :57:33. | :57:35. | |
And to finish this week's programme, will it back to my trip to Ghana | :57:36. | :58:01. | |
in April, when I went to a monkey sanctuary to meet some | :58:02. | :58:04. | |
Wow! That's so nice. | :58:05. | :58:26. | |
I am amazed at how much banana a little monkey like that can eat! | :58:27. | :58:32. | |
That monkey must have eaten at least ten bananas. | :58:33. | :58:38. | |
The villages here believe these monkeys are sacred. | :58:39. | :58:49. | |
The cheeky Mona and the black and white Colobus, which is slightly | :58:50. | :58:56. | |
Declining numbers through habitat loss means they're currently | :58:57. | :59:04. | |
There can't be many places left where you are virtually | :59:05. | :59:11. | |
And don't forget to check out our website or follow us | :59:12. | :59:31. | |
But for now, from me, Ade Adepitan and the rest | :59:32. | :59:35. | |
of the Travel Show team here in wonderful sunny | :59:36. | :59:37. | |
By night, the pockets of resistance against evacuation are evident. | :59:38. | :03:14. | |
Katrina Renton is in Camden for us. I have a statement from Camden | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
council saying, we anticipate these works will be completed in 3-4 weeks | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
but it is hugely inconvenient and stressful for some of the residents? | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
That's right. That's what the council have been trained all along. | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
They are asking and thanking people here for bearing with them. You will | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
see is much quieter here. We've seen it get much quieter in the last few | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
hours. When I was here at 11 o'clock last night there were more people | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
registering and more people moving through, being taken away to hotels. | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
Places to stay. Others going to stay with friends and family. That | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
initial confusion has certainly eased. About 40 people stayed here | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
overnight last night, compared to 100 on Friday night. That gives you | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
an idea that things are settling down. I did speak to people as they | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
were leaving here this morning. One family was telling me how tired they | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
are. They stayed there last night and said they didn't get much sleep | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
and looking forward to having somewhere to stay tonight. The | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
council said they found the families, and they are hoping to get | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
to sleep. I also spoke to Abdi, who has a two -month-old baby. He chose | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
to stay in his flat. He says he feels safer there and he will wait | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
there until he hears from the council there is something | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
convenient for him and his family. Some have been defined and they | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
denounce. The council's message to them if they want them to leave. If | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
they don't there are legal route they could go down. They say they | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
don't want to do that, though and they want people out of the building | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
so they can get on with the work that needs to be done. Some | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
practicalities, people arriving here today. Each household in to ?100. | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
People coming here to get up. There has also been indeed celebration | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
organised by the council is they don't want people to miss out on | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
that. The short-term uncertainty seems to be settling but questions | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
being asked over the long term. And a moment will speak to a Liberal | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
Democrat member of the all-party Parliamentary fire and safety rescue | :05:23. | :05:23. | |
group. Pakistan government officials say | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
at least a-hundred people are reported to have been killed | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
and dozens more badly injured when a lorry transporting oil burst | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
into flames in Punjab. Police said a crowd had | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
gathered to collect fuel leaking from the vehicle which had | :05:37. | :05:38. | |

Joe Lynam has more. Some of our most popular ingredients | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
like bananas and cocoa grown in some of the well's most porous, | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
economies. The ER allowed them to export their goods tariff free. | :06:15. | :06:23. | |
Products such as bananas, sugar and coffee should not be any more | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
expensive for UK households when imported after 2019. The UK imports | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
almost ?20 billion a year tariff free from 48 developing countries, | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
including Ethiopian, Bangladesh and Sierra Leone. Export of arms and | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
defence equipment are not included in this trade agreement. We want, as | :06:43. | :06:51. | |
we leave the European Union, to be champions of European free trade, | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
pointing out it has already taken more people out of poverty in the | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
last 25 years than in the whole of history up until that point. We have | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
to keep that momentum going. We have to get the big economies opening up | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
and we have to give the opportunities to those developing | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
countries, to trade their way out of poverty. Assuming Britain quits the | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
European customs union as one of the EU, it will be free to conduct its | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
own trade deals with any countries. That could also allow it to expand | :07:17. | :07:20. | |

is facing the worst cholera outbreak in the world according to the World | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
Health Organisation and UN children's agency. There have been | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
more than 200,000 suspected cases and 1300 deaths. The outbreak spread | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
because of the collapse of the health system during the Civil War. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
The Archbishop of Canterbury just in worldly has urged Theresa May to set | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
up a cross-party commission to advise her on Brexit. He said such a | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
commission could hold the ring for the differences to be fought out and | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
draw much of the poison from the debate. Better late than never. The | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
US rock band through fighters finally took the top billed slot at | :08:04. | :08:14. | |
last night's Glastonbury Festival. They were absolutely immense last | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
night apparently. They apologise for being too years later the gig and | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
performed a number of their best songs. They were originally meant to | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
headline the festival in 2015 but an injury. To pull out a few weeks | :08:28. | :08:36. | |
before. Our paper review this morning, and our guest is here | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
rather than at Glastonbury. One of the stories we will talk about is if | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
some the bottom of the Sunday Telegraph. The Tories plotting to | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
skip toxic generation and install younger face as next leader. | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
Apparently there is actually a different story in the Sunday | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
Telegraph, saying Hammond is the favourite for many of the Remainers. | :08:58. | :09:09. | |
There's people like Dominic Raab, who was on the Brexit side. Priti | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
Patel, Sajid Javid and the 2010 intake including Joe Johnson. | :09:16. | :09:25. | |
Front page of the Observer this morning looking at fire safety and | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
public buildings. It is an absolutely key issue. This question | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
of whether the government should declare a state of emergency because | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
of the fire safety crisis, that suggestion has been put about by the | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
Liberal Democrats. Earlier this morning we spoke to one resident who | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
is refusing to leave his home. I understand what they're trying to do | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
but I just think it's a knee jerk reaction and overcoat of the | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
situation. As long as I've lived there, we have known any major | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
problems. These have only come to light now. Whatever level of danger | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
which in, it's been the same for years. Previously when works have | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
been done in the building they have done it around us, I think this is | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
the way it should carry on, rather than causing elements of fear and | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
cows around them welding. Roger Evans, one of the irritated | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
residents of one of those blocks. Thank you for joining us this | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
morning. 100% fail rate so far on these blocks that have been tested. | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
That is going to cost an awful lot of money, to put right, isn't it? It | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
is. The cladding is not the only issue, as the Camden residents have | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
found out. It is also fire regulations haven't been observed | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
inside the buildings as well when other works have gone on. That is | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
the particular issue in Camden, why the blocks have had to be evacuated. | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
Well done to Camden for doing that so quickly and checking everything. | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
The problem is that if the Fire Service they ate building is unsafe, | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
then the landlord, whether that is, must take that seriously. That is | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
exactly why we are extremely concerned, obviously, that all the | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
buildings tested so far have failed the cladding test, but they need to | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
check inside as well. When was the last time the regulations were | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
changed on cladding? It seems it is a problem with the testing regime. | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
It absolutely is. The part the regulations haven't been changed in | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
decades and the all-party Parliamentary group have been | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
arguing for years, long before I went into the House of Lords, and | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
two ministers of all parties, that these regulations needed to be | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
updated, not just the new building materials like cladding but have | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
sprinklers inside and make sure all the other fire regulations inside, | :11:45. | :11:54. | |
so if there is a one flat there is plenty of time for everyone to get | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
out. That is the sort of thing a blind eye has been turned toward | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
checks haven't been made that put some of these buildings at risk, | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
which is why they need to be checked. We are all focusing on the | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
moment on housing blocks but I'm sure other people are doing what I | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
do, wandering round towns and cities, looking at at buildings and | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
thinking, there's some cladding as well. We're talking about schools, | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
hospitals, office blocks, how far could this goes? Schools and offices | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
usually have a much more rigorous internal fire safety routine. There | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
will be fire wardens on all floors, they will run practices regularly. | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
I'm not aware of that happening in many tower blocks. It's good | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
practice and night urged landlords of tower blocks to look at that sort | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
of safety element. That's the sort of thing that can make all the | :12:41. | :12:49. | |
difference when there is a fire. What we're asking for is something | :12:50. | :12:51. | |
slightly different. We are saying that in the areas where councils are | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
having to evacuate flats, the government should intervene much | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
more strongly and provide help, with lots of love other agencies coming | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
in to help. I have been hearing on BBC and other broadcast media saying | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
there is enough information, there is a worry about the long-term | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
housing implications, London doesn't have much spare housing available at | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
all. That is why this is an emergency on the same scale as the | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
Cumbrian flooding is a 2015, when thousands of people had to evacuate | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
their homes. You are a Liberal Democrat and there is political | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
capital to be gained out of this. Would you appreciate or at least go | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
as far to say as a lot of this has been politicised. You said yourself, | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
it's gone back decades and decades, through a Labour government, a | :13:36. | :13:47. | |
coalition government which were part of, and through a Conservative | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
government. This is a collective responsibility for this? Disses | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
cross-party and none. It is absolutely a safety issue. It is a | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
disgrace that ministers and the department have ignored safety pleas | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
from experts and from all additions like us, who have been concerned | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
because the Fed interest and experience of fire safety elsewhere. | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
It has to be dealt with. It has to be dealt with urgently. The more | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
buildings that failed the cladding test mean we have to change the | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
attitude and I'm pleased the government is beginning to do it but | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
there's a more urgent need, with people on blow-up beds in leisure | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
centres not knowing what's going to happen to them over the next weeks | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
and months, that also needs to be resolved and very urgently. Looking | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
at the front page of the Observer today, ministers in panic over fire | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
U-turn in schools. The background is where they were going to roll back | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
on regulation and red tape, they're now thinking twice. Do we need a | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
national review of fire safety, where we look at all the | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
regulations? We absolutely do. One reason I was interested in this, I | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
was chair of governors of a primary school that was burned down. We | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
asked the sprinklers to be put in, it was very distressing and affected | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
the children in a fairly major way with exam paper missing and all | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
those sort of things, so when we asked we were told sprinklers are | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
unnecessary in schools. We finally got them and then last year the | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
government cancelled it again. I think they finally understood that | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
the cost to the country, to individual communities of not | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
following fire safety is too risky. Which many, many campaigners the | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
safety have been arguing for for years. Baroness Sal Brinton, we are | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
grateful for your time, thank you. Let's take a look at this morning's | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
weather. We know some places have a bit of sunshine already today. | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
That's right, good morning. Not a bad looking day. A bit more cloud | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
around today than yesterday, but some lovely spells of sunshine this | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
morning. Thicker cloud across north-west England, West and Wales | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
and south-west England, rain bearing. The best of the sunshine in | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
Scotland at the moment. This will filter into Northern Ireland and | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
then northern England as the head through the afternoon. Fairly strong | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
winds this morning across northern, north-eastern Scotland, but thankful | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
to say is that area of low pressure pushes away, though wind will ease | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
down. Fairly brisk winds through the afternoon. Not bad in the sunshine | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
but temperatures are not touched down on yesterday's values. More | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
sunshine in the north because it's a little dry. For England and Wales | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
with that weather front straddling central areas, the odd bit of rain, | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
had to say exactly where, but expect the odd spit spot in the air. For | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
Glastonbury looks much like yesterday, rather cloudy. | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
Temperatures 18-19, expect the odd spit or spot of rain. The same in | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
London for Queen's tennis. 20 or 21 if you get a little brightness, but | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
pretty doubtful as the cloud and outbreaks of rain move southwards | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
this evening. Overnight it should eventually career awaits. Winds will | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
be quite liked. A chilly night, without chilly air mass. We could be | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
looking at single figure values in some rural spots. High pressure | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
dominating on Monday, low pressure starts to push up the south-west, | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
bringing inquiry increasing cloud. For Northern Ireland, you will be | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
seeing the rain pushing through the afternoon. Elsewhere, a good-looking | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
day, sunny spells, scooping up a bit of warm air from the near continent. | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
We could be looking at 24-25d in the south-east. For the week ahead, | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
spells of heavy rain at times, typically Tuesday onwards. Quite | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
breezy thanks to low pressure, and skies would generally be pretty | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
cloudy. Thank you. We have to go for an | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
afternoon not so we can get up tonight for Ed Sheeran. | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
Yes, yes, but I'm working early Monday morning so it might not work | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
for me. But if you have been enjoying Glastonbury from your sofa | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
we their lives now and see how what it's like early on a Sunday morning. | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
Ed Sheeran tonight and Barry Gibb taking to the Pyramid stage later | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
today. Our correspondent has been there all weekend. Lovely to see | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
you. Just take us through some of the highlights from yesterday. | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
A really good day of music yesterday, helped by the relatively | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
good weather. Only a few bits of rain. One of the big things for many | :18:32. | :18:38. | |
people was one of the biggest stars in the world, Katy Perry, on the | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
Pyramid stage. At Glastonbury, people come to see all sorts of | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
different musical acts and buy their tickets before they know who will be | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
here. For artists, it's not their hard-core fans out there in huge | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
numbers a lot of the time, so they need to play their hits. That is | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
exactly what Katy Perry did. Got a fabulous reaction when she played | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
them of her best-known songs and ended her set by crowd surfing over | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
the crowd, in front of the Pyramid stage. A wonderful and typical | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
performance by her. Her dancers behind looking wonderfully | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
eccentric. Across the rest of the site, people | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
are still remembered the recent events. William Gallagher dedicated | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
a performance of don't look back in anger to the victims of Grenfell | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
Tower. Stormzy also made reference to Grenfell Tower when he performed | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
on the other stage. The evening finished off on the main Pyramid | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
stage with a performance by Foo Fighters, the big headliners. They | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
had a slightly chequered history with Glastonbury. They had to cancel | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
two years ago because one of the members of the band fell off the | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
stage in Europe and broke her leg, so couldn't come here and perform. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
They were replaced by Florence and the machine Abdul Osman it. When | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
they played here in 98, Foo Fighters, they played the same time | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
as an England World Cup match so the audience here went off to watch | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
that, many of them, so they had a relatively small audience. That was | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
not what last night was like. They had a huge audience here. They | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
played well, a big and tight set that when done incredibly well with | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
everybody playing here. As for today, another day of | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
highlights across the place. On the other stage, Emeli Sande will be | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
performing. On the Pyramid stage people like Jamie Cullum, Barry Gibb | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
will be here and the evening will end with the man himself, Ed | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
Sheeran. He's had a phenomenally successful year with his album | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
dominating the singles chart, and after a Glastonbury where it's | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
normally been very muddy and wet and a bit miserable for some people, | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
people are generally looking forward to Ed Sheeran finishing a weekend | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
that's been music filled and relatively mild free. | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
That is always a bonus! Thank you very much. You're watching breakfast | :20:56. | :21:04. | |
on BBC News. It is 8:20am. Time for a look at the newspapers. Anand | :21:05. | :21:13. | |
Menon is safe with us this morning and will tell us what caught his eye | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
in a second. A quick look at the front pages... We start with the | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
Observer, as we were just hearing, there is a bit of a panic over | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
regulations, fire regulations and a bit of a U-turn. Where they were | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
cutting back on red tape and attitudes towards fire safety, now | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
they are reviewing all of those. There is call for a cross-party | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
commission to look at them. Front page of the Sunday Times | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
reporting on the cyber attack affecting people who work in | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
Westminster, MPs and peers on their star. They think 10,000 people are | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
being advised to change their passwords after what has been | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
described as a sustained undetermined effort by hackers to | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
break into sensitive e-mail account and speculation about who may have | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
been behind it. One of the papers this morning suggesting it was | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
Russia. Lakmal fears after MPs hit by cyber | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
attack. 10,000 locked out of their accounts yesterday. -- lacked male | :22:14. | :22:22. | |
fears. There was a story about 1000 password hacked that were on sale on | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
social media. The Mail on Sunday rerunning a story from the week, | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
having spoken to the journalist who spoke to Prince Harry. He said at | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
the time that he didn't know any member of the Royal family who | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
wanted to be king or queen but saw it as their public duty. A little | :22:40. | :22:42. | |
bit more detail on that interview on the Mail on Sunday this morning. | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
Anand Menon, welcome. You have picked up the Sunday Telegraph story | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
we will speaking about. The story about the next generation of Tories | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
and if there is someone to take over from Theresa May. This is | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
interesting. The Tories are all thinking about the succession, | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
whether they say so or not. There seems to be a group of Tory MPs who | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
are saying it can't be any of the usual crowd, because they have had | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
their time and are responsible for what happened in the election and we | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
need to look one generation down. If you think back to the Labour | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
leadership, when Jeremy Corbyn was elected, the problem they had were | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
so many of the candidates were tainted with the brush of the former | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
Labour government. Tories are thinking about that and thinking, we | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
need to avoid that and find something different. They would | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
think back to 2005 anything, we had David Cameron and no one knew about | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
him when he took over? Yes, there is a value in having someone who no one | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
really knows particular well who can't be blamed for perceived | :23:41. | :23:43. | |
failures of the government, who can give them a new start. Is that a | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
problem for parties, how they regenerate themselves? Everybody | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
faces this. One of the problems is when they are in power, the senior | :23:53. | :23:58. | |
people in the party but their rental today -- proteges in place, and if | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
that party is unpopular, they are tainted with the same brush. US | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
politics, this in the Observer this morning, a big spread talking about | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
the Civil War within the Democratic party. | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
Yes, there were two things of note about this. First of all it is easy | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
when thinking about America to only think about Donald Trump, because it | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
is virtually impossible to take your eyes off him. At the same time there | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
is normal politics going on. The normal politics at the moment is the | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
Democrats tearing themselves apart thinking if it should be Bernie | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
Sanders who takes the party forward or someone else. Bernie Sanders out | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
of it? No, still there and very active on social media and has a | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
cult following. People compare him with Jeremy Corbyn. I think it is | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
also useful in the sensor points out we are not as unique as we think, | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
because exactly the same debates are taking part in the Labour Party at | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
the moment. To what extent a centre-left party has to appeal to | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
the centre ground to be successful. That mirrors what is happening in | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
the Democratic party right now. They just had this special election in | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
Georgia and threw money at that and thought they could win it and then | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
didn't. Yes. A huge morale blow to the party. Yes, and those are saying | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
we need a change of direction... Everyone interprets things as they | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
wish. The left of the party are saying Hillary Clinton fail because | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
she was too centrist. A story we spoke about last week on 100 days. | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
Whether the EU actually need us. I was surprised because I was in | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
Brussels on Monday, they said people in Europe want Brexit to work | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
because they don't want us back. A lot of interesting things, one of | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
which is how important mood is in politics. Everyone now thinks the EU | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
is recovering, simply because Emmanuel Macron has brought a | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
feel-good factor. It is worth point out he hasn't done anything yet. For | :25:57. | :25:59. | |
all the talk of him and Angela Merkel looking good in photos, when | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
they think about substance, like how to reform the Eurozone, you get the | :26:04. | :26:06. | |
impression they are still on opposite sides of the debate and | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
will find it hard to agree. After the election result here a lot of | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
talk about the softening of the outcome of Brexit and perhaps still | :26:17. | :26:18. | |
maintaining close ties with Europe one way or another and people | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
suggesting there is a way out of it, maybe it doesn't have to happen at | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
all. I think what we get a sense of is actually Europe want rid, we've | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
made a decision and were quite unified? There is a sense Europe can | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
do things without as they couldn't do with us because we whizz blocked | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
it, that's certainly true. If the EU looks successful it changes the | :26:41. | :26:47. | |
terms. Brexiteers in the debate talked about us being shackled to | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
cause, but this could change the debate. Oxford PC students want to | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
ban roads. Except they don't. This is a silly debate, they want to ban | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
the long ones, not the short ones. If you're a scholarship you get | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
along one, but people insure gowns are feeling inferior. The whole | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
world I know nothing about! Thank you so much for your time this | :27:13. | :27:15. | |
morning. Great happy with us, thank you. Let's talk happy. Just before | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
nine o'clock we will meet two people who have made on this year's happy | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
list. We want to know what's making you happy this morning. We were | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
saying there weren't many children in photos and suddenly there is a | :27:31. | :27:34. | |
plethora of them. We started off with this one, from one of our | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
production team who has a new puppy, a Welsh terrier, he's gorgeous! This | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
is him as he attempts to get down from the enormous step. Their egos, | :27:44. | :27:46. | |
in the air. Brave, very brave. -- there he goes. | :27:47. | :27:54. | |
A rush of cat and dog photos, and then finally some babies. This is | :27:55. | :28:01. | |
Damien and Joe's daughter Erin, making them happy. This is the view | :28:02. | :28:05. | |
from Tim Nuttall's bedroom. That would make me quite happy as well. | :28:06. | :28:14. | |
Is the scene in East Yorkshire. And Alex wakes up every morning to these | :28:15. | :28:17. | |
seagulls. I don't know if I do that, very | :28:18. | :28:24. | |
noisy! Whatever floats your boat. There are loads more on our Twitter | :28:25. | :28:28. | |
timeline, very lovely. Thank you for sending them in. | :28:29. | :28:30. | |
We will be back with a summary of the morning's main news in a moment, | :28:31. | :28:32. | |
stay with us. Hello, this is Breakfast with | :28:33. | :29:37. | |
Rachel Burden and Christian Fraser. Coming up before nine, | :29:38. | :29:40. | |
Holly will be here with the sport. But, first, a summary of this | :29:41. | :29:47. | |
morning's main news. Fire safety tests on 34 samples | :29:48. | :29:49. | |
of cladding from tower blocks in England have failed, | :29:50. | :29:52. | |
the Government has revealed. It comes after fire safety testing | :29:53. | :29:55. | |
after the Grenfell Tower tragedy. 17 local council | :29:56. | :30:01. | |
areas are affected - including Manchester, | :30:02. | :30:03. | |
Plymouth, Portsmouth and the London boroughs | :30:04. | :30:05. | |
of Barnet, Brent and Camden. Hundreds of residents of a council | :30:06. | :30:09. | |
estate in the Swiss Cottage area of London have spent a second night | :30:10. | :30:12. | |
away from their homes, as Camden Council tries to empty | :30:13. | :30:14. | |
four tower blocks so that fire Earlier this morning, we spoke to | :30:15. | :30:27. | |
one resident from the Chalcots Estate who is refusing to leave his | :30:28. | :30:30. | |
home. I understand what they are trying to do but I think it is a | :30:31. | :30:34. | |
knee jerk reaction and overkill to the situation. As long as I have | :30:35. | :30:38. | |
lived there, we haven't known any major problems, these have only come | :30:39. | :30:42. | |
to light that so whatever level of danger we are in, it's been the same | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
the years. Previously WebWorks that need to be done in the building, | :30:47. | :30:54. | |
they've done it around us and I think this is the way they should | :30:55. | :30:57. | |
carry on, rather than cause elements of fear and chaos around the | :30:58. | :30:58. | |
building. A cyber attack on the parliamentary | :30:59. | :31:00. | |
computer system appears to have been contained according | :31:01. | :31:02. | |
to government sources. Officials at the Houses | :31:03. | :31:04. | |
of Parliament said there had been a "determined" attempt by hackers | :31:05. | :31:06. | |
to identify weak passwords for email accounts used by MPs, | :31:07. | :31:09. | |
peers and their staff. Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen has | :31:10. | :31:11. | |
raised concerns that it could leave The National Cyber Security Centre | :31:12. | :31:13. | |
is now investigating what happened. We know that our public | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
services are attacked, so it's not at all surprising | :31:18. | :31:22. | |
that there should be an attempt It's a warning to everybody, | :31:23. | :31:25. | |
whether they're in Parliament or elsewhere, that they need | :31:26. | :31:29. | |
to do everything possible to maintain their own | :31:30. | :31:32. | |
cyber security, including having complex | :31:33. | :31:35. | |
and therefore safer codewords. Pakistan government officials | :31:36. | :31:44. | |
say at least 100 people are reported to have been killed | :31:45. | :31:46. | |
and dozens more badly injured when a lorry transporting oil burst | :31:47. | :31:49. | |
into flames in Punjab. Police said a crowd had gathered | :31:50. | :31:51. | |
to collect fuel leaking from the vehicle which had | :31:52. | :31:54. | |
overturned on the main highway Fire fighters have been tackling | :31:55. | :31:56. | |
the blaze which is said The Archbishop of Canterbury, | :31:57. | :32:02. | |
Justin Welby, has urged Theresa May to set up a cross-party commission | :32:03. | :32:07. | |
to advise her on Brexit. Writing in the Mail on Sunday, | :32:08. | :32:11. | |
he says such a commission could "hold the ring | :32:12. | :32:15. | |
for the differences to be fought out" and "draw much | :32:16. | :32:18. | |
of the poison from the debate." Holly is back with the sport. So, | :32:19. | :32:33. | |
the Lions team for Tuesday? Yes, it has all have a bit of a shake-up, we | :32:34. | :32:37. | |
are getting over the disappointment that we have been told to stop | :32:38. | :32:41. | |
complaining, it was a good match. The British and Irish Lions against | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
New Zealand but it did feel a little bit inevitable, certainly in the | :32:46. | :32:48. | |
second half. There were areas where we thought we | :32:49. | :32:51. | |
would be stronger and we went and Gatland will be having a look at | :32:52. | :32:56. | |
that with this selection. We will... We have been given a few | :32:57. | :33:00. | |
names. He said yesterday he wanted the team to be more physical. | :33:01. | :33:04. | |
The problem is, this is when the togetherness spirit starts to split, | :33:05. | :33:10. | |
we say, "Why is Joe Mahler not in the side?" And you are sticking up | :33:11. | :33:13. | |
for the Irish! Rory Best has been named captain and | :33:14. | :33:18. | |
he is the right man for the job! I may be slightly biased, but he is | :33:19. | :33:22. | |
part of the shake-up, along with George North and Johnathan Joseph. | :33:23. | :33:25. | |
They will both start against the Carrick Rangers on Tuesday -- the | :33:26. | :33:29. | |
hurricane aims. He was skipper for their best | :33:30. | :33:37. | |
win on the tour against And Gatland believes | :33:38. | :33:41. | |
all their problems from the first Test can be sorted out | :33:42. | :33:44. | |
for the next two. The All Blacks haven't played | :33:45. | :33:46. | |
champagne rugby and throwing the ball all over the place, | :33:47. | :33:50. | |
fairness to them, they were very direct up front so we need to make | :33:51. | :33:53. | |
sure we're better in those areas in terms of combating | :33:54. | :33:57. | |
them for next week. England's cricketers had | :33:58. | :33:58. | |
a really disappointing start In the opening match, | :33:59. | :34:00. | |
they lost by 35 runs It would have been a record-breaking | :34:01. | :34:03. | |
victory if they'd made their target of 282 - | :34:04. | :34:07. | |
but they fell short, Think globally, what women's cricket | :34:08. | :34:09. | |
needs is to motivate Derby's welcome perhaps made | :34:10. | :34:16. | |
the point about the size Locally, well, perhaps decent crowd | :34:17. | :34:20. | |
expected early England wickets, instead they saw one of the most | :34:21. | :34:26. | |
exciting young talents in world Smriti Mandhana made 90 in a style | :34:27. | :34:29. | |
to light up any occasion. Supported by her teammates and also | :34:30. | :34:34. | |
by dropped England catches. This one was beyond Beaumont | :34:35. | :34:37. | |
on the boundary but fast bowler Whenever England seemed to be | :34:38. | :34:41. | |
getting close in the chase, runouts held them back, | :34:42. | :34:50. | |
that was captain Fran Wilson played the innings | :34:51. | :34:51. | |
of her career so far, Replays revealing her | :34:52. | :34:57. | |
bat wasn't grounded. In the end England finished 35 runs | :34:58. | :35:04. | |
short, their preparation had seemed strong, I wondered if on this big | :35:05. | :35:07. | |
occasion some of the players We didn't start the way | :35:08. | :35:10. | |
we wanted to which meant we were always struggling uphill, | :35:11. | :35:20. | |
but it's something we will I don't think it was anything | :35:21. | :35:22. | |
to do with freezing, we didn't quite bowl the way | :35:23. | :35:26. | |
we wanted to and India really put A significant and even historic | :35:27. | :35:29. | |
result in women's cricket but it Remember initially all the eight | :35:30. | :35:35. | |
teams play each other in a round robin stage and England | :35:36. | :35:39. | |
will expect to win their next match in Leicester against | :35:40. | :35:42. | |
Pakistan on Tuesday. Mind you, they expected | :35:43. | :35:44. | |
to win their opening Lewis Hamilton said the pressure | :35:45. | :35:47. | |
was "amazing", after he produced what he called a "beautiful lap" | :35:48. | :35:57. | |
to take pole for this afternoon's When qualifying was held up | :35:58. | :35:59. | |
by a crash, the drivers only had time for one flying lap at the end | :36:00. | :36:05. | |
of the session - and Hamilton went than his Mercedes team-mate | :36:06. | :36:10. | |
Valtteri Bottas. The lap just got better | :36:11. | :36:15. | |
and better throughout. I saw Valtteri just ahead, | :36:16. | :36:19. | |
I knew he was doing a good lap, I came across and I knew coming down | :36:20. | :36:22. | |
to the last corner, One football line for you - | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
and England's Under 21s now know who'll they'll face | :36:27. | :36:33. | |
in the semi-finals of It'll be Germany, after they lost | :36:34. | :36:35. | |
to Italy last night and finished There were some strong performances | :36:36. | :36:41. | |
from Great Britain's athletes at the European Team Championships | :36:42. | :36:51. | |
in Lille. At one point they led the standings | :36:52. | :36:53. | |
but they finished the second day Eilidh Doyle produced | :36:54. | :36:56. | |
one of the highlights, running a season-best | :36:57. | :36:59. | |
in the 400m hurdles. Aiden O'Brien finished | :37:00. | :37:01. | |

they'll reach the World League final Great Britain won a record eight | :37:26. | :37:45. | |

Liverpool's Peter McGrail in the bantamweight division. | :37:51. | :37:52. | |
Britain's Scott Redding was going well in qualifying | :37:53. | :37:58. | |
for the Dutch Grand Prix when he lost grip and his bike | :37:59. | :38:01. | |
But he sprinted back to the pit lane, jumped on his spare | :38:02. | :38:07. | |
bike and went out again, actually improving his best lap time | :38:08. | :38:09. | |
Good effort. But what you call getting back on the bike. | :38:10. | :38:21. | |
Thank you so much. Now back to the main story, the Government has been | :38:22. | :38:26. | |
asked to assure councils across England that they will receive | :38:27. | :38:29. | |
financial assistance for any necessary fire safety work to make | :38:30. | :38:33. | |
buildings safe. Our political correspondent joins us now. When it | :38:34. | :38:37. | |
comes to funding, these changes to make buildings more fire safe, we | :38:38. | :38:42. | |
know these changes will need to be extensive from the kind of numbers | :38:43. | :38:44. | |
we are looking at, what kind of reassurances have we had from the | :38:45. | :38:47. | |
Government that the money will be there? Well, the Government has said | :38:48. | :38:52. | |
that although there is no blank cheque, what they are saying is that | :38:53. | :38:56. | |
cost considerations shouldn't get in the way of this safety requirement | :38:57. | :39:01. | |
that will be needed in the buildings. If you look at what we | :39:02. | :39:06. | |
have had so far, 34 tower blocks in 17 local authority areas have failed | :39:07. | :39:12. | |
those fire safety checks thus far, and we understand that a further 600 | :39:13. | :39:15. | |
also tower blocks are being investigated and what the Government | :39:16. | :39:22. | |
are saying is that they want the local authorities and anyone | :39:23. | :39:26. | |
concerned about the fire cladding and whether safety requirements are | :39:27. | :39:29. | |
met to get in touch, so these checks can be carried out. In terms of the | :39:30. | :39:34. | |
cost of this, we haven't got a big year for a jet but this is going to | :39:35. | :39:38. | |
be huge, because there are just so many tower blocks -- we haven't got | :39:39. | :39:42. | |
a figure for it yet. Potentially so many tower blocks need updating. The | :39:43. | :39:47. | |
other thing to ask about this morning is there are concerns about | :39:48. | :39:50. | |
this cyber attack affecting people working at Westminster, so it is not | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
just MPs and peers, but office staff as well. What can you tell us about | :39:55. | :39:59. | |
that? This happened on Friday, it was understood that there were | :40:00. | :40:08. | |
breaches of security in terms of people's e-mails, that people were | :40:09. | :40:11. | |
trying to, I suppose, break into people's e-mails. The concern being | :40:12. | :40:18. | |
that potentially very sensitive information could be leaked to these | :40:19. | :40:21. | |
hackers if they could get hold of it. As far as we know, none of that | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
information has been breached. We understand the situation is under | :40:27. | :40:29. | |
control now but a lot of MPs have been concerned about this. The Tory | :40:30. | :40:35. | |
MP Andrew Bridgen was talking about it potentially leading MPs or staff | :40:36. | :40:39. | |
in Parliament open to blackmail, that potentially sensitive | :40:40. | :40:42. | |
information sent by constituents could be put out there into the | :40:43. | :40:46. | |
public domain, so a lot of concern about this but they say at the | :40:47. | :40:52. | |
moment, the situation has been contained. Thank you, Susana. And to | :40:53. | :40:55. | |
bring you further to this fire safety measures, statement by Camden | :40:56. | :40:59. | |
County Council, who have been evacuating those tower blocks in | :41:00. | :41:02. | |
north London, they say work is continuing overnight and into the | :41:03. | :41:05. | |
morning to support residents who have been evacuated and go on to say | :41:06. | :41:10. | |
they have made a further 200 offers of accommodation to residents who | :41:11. | :41:13. | |
have had to leave these towers. Most of them, they say, have been | :41:14. | :41:17. | |
accepted and further funding continues to be made available to | :41:18. | :41:21. | |
ensure those currently in temporary accommodation have what they need | :41:22. | :41:23. | |
and they go on to say that because they know some residents were not | :41:24. | :41:27. | |
happy about leaving their homes, by remaining in the blocks, the | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
residents risk delay the work that is required and the safety for | :41:34. | :41:35. | |
anyone and they say for everyone affected, we know leaving your home | :41:36. | :41:40. | |
is distressing and they understand residents are upset but the council | :41:41. | :41:43. | |
must act and protect residents. That is from Camden County Council. | :41:44. | :41:48. | |
We are going to talk about something we don't like to talk about and we | :41:49. | :41:50. | |
should, that is funerals. From choosing the music to planning | :41:51. | :41:52. | |
the order of service, organising a funeral is an important | :41:53. | :41:54. | |
part of the grieving process. As funeral directors start to offer | :41:55. | :41:57. | |
families greater involvement, a new documentary follows people | :41:58. | :41:59. | |
as they help to prepare a body and decide to have a loved one | :42:00. | :42:02. | |
at home in the days before Rehana Rose is a film maker | :42:03. | :42:05. | |
who is documenting the work of a funeral directors, | :42:06. | :42:11. | |
and Hannah Thompson arranged a personal funeral for her mum | :42:12. | :42:14. | |
and features in the documentary. Hannah, tell us about that funeral, | :42:15. | :42:24. | |
what did you do differently? What did we do differently? First of all, | :42:25. | :42:30. | |
we found an alternative funeral directors, really, who were based in | :42:31. | :42:37. | |
Brighton, which is where we replaced, and -- where we were | :42:38. | :42:42. | |
based, and they came to collect my mother, quite gently, quite softly. | :42:43. | :42:47. | |
They gave us lots of options about how she went. We felt like they were | :42:48. | :42:53. | |
going to take care of her and we have no complaints. But it was | :42:54. | :42:57. | |
different to a standard Vero service in the sense that they took the body | :42:58. | :43:05. | |
away -- standard funeral service. Yes, they arrived and they give you | :43:06. | :43:09. | |
options. I personally haven't really gone through a traditional funeral | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
home, I have always used this company. I have had four deaths in | :43:15. | :43:20. | |
three years and I think it reflects my family, they reflect my family | :43:21. | :43:28. | |
and they are ecological, hands-on, creative and there are plenty of | :43:29. | :43:32. | |
options. I think what people don't realise, Rehana, there are no fixed | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
laws or rules when it comes to handling a deceased person after | :43:37. | :43:41. | |
they have died, so you don't have to send them to an undertakers, they | :43:42. | :43:44. | |
don't have to have a hearse, they don't even have to have a | :43:45. | :43:48. | |
traditional coffin. I have learned all of this along the way. In 2012, | :43:49. | :43:53. | |
my mum died and a year later, an ex-partner died and 18 months after | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
that, a good friend in Brighton died, so I went to three funerals | :43:58. | :44:02. | |
and the third funeral, my friend in Brighton, my friend's partner, was | :44:03. | :44:06. | |
supported by the company in Brighton and it was a light bulb moment for | :44:07. | :44:10. | |
me because whilst the other two funerals were obviously sad, they | :44:11. | :44:15. | |
didn't seem to reflect the people and that was difficult. And when I | :44:16. | :44:24. | |
went to my friend's funeral, it wasn't just about the funeral, it is | :44:25. | :44:28. | |
about what happens from the point of death to the ceremony and the way | :44:29. | :44:31. | |
these women supported and helped my friend's partner was extraordinary. | :44:32. | :44:37. | |
So the body stays at home? Not always, but you have that choice. | :44:38. | :44:45. | |
And you are involved in the bombing? This company do not embalm. Cara, | :44:46. | :44:52. | |
who runs the company, was an embalmer but 15 years on, she | :44:53. | :44:55. | |
doesn't do it because she finds it an invasive procedure. They prepare | :44:56. | :45:00. | |
and dress the body. Absolutely, and they encourage the loved ones to | :45:01. | :45:04. | |
come in. It is not everyone's all but the fact is, it is about giving | :45:05. | :45:08. | |
that option to people to allow them to realise you are not handing it | :45:09. | :45:14. | |
all over. There was a quote that stood out to me, I was reading about | :45:15. | :45:20. | |
the funeral director and she said it is about slowing the process down. | :45:21. | :45:26. | |
We had a recent death in my family and it happens so quick, from death | :45:27. | :45:31. | |
to funeral to cremation and you think, I didn't even get the chance | :45:32. | :45:35. | |
to say goodbye, actually, it was so final and so quick. Absolutely and I | :45:36. | :45:41. | |
think Kara says that and again, being a witness to it, being there | :45:42. | :45:44. | |
with the camera, and those people allowing me to be there, I hear that | :45:45. | :45:50. | |
all the time, that Cara keeps them calm, tells them they have time to | :45:51. | :45:54. | |
think about the decisions you are making, because you are in such a | :45:55. | :46:00. | |
vulnerable state. Yes, you don't actually know when to let them go | :46:01. | :46:04. | |
and that is the point. I guess some people, that is why it is easier to | :46:05. | :46:08. | |
hand over to funeral directors and say, you take control, I am in MS | :46:09. | :46:12. | |
and I can't deal with these decisions and that is where it helps | :46:13. | :46:17. | |
-- I am in a mess. That is why it helps to talk about it beforehand to | :46:18. | :46:22. | |
let people know what you like. There is a time where if you don't isolate | :46:23. | :46:27. | |
life to death, you have a chance to actually take that journey and | :46:28. | :46:30. | |
understand that and comprehended and you have time to do that. It really | :46:31. | :46:36. | |
helps. One thing that occurs to me, it is a modern invention because | :46:37. | :46:40. | |
long ago, people couldn't afford funeral services and the family | :46:41. | :46:43. | |
looked after it, everybody trooped through the front room and that is | :46:44. | :46:47. | |
how it worked. Absolutely and we were connected and I think there has | :46:48. | :46:51. | |
been a disconnect and I think what these women are trying to do and | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
many others across the country are just encouraging people to ask | :46:56. | :46:58. | |
questions and to make the funeral for the person they love, not for | :46:59. | :47:04. | |
the funeral director. Thank you so much, we really appreciate it. It is | :47:05. | :47:06. | |
a beautiful film. Rehana's documentary is called | :47:07. | :47:07. | |
Dead Good and will be It's at this point that I say | :47:08. | :47:16. | |
goodbye and go off to read the news for Andrew, but in the meantime, | :47:17. | :47:21. | |
here is one last look at this morning's weather. | :47:22. | :47:25. | |
Good morning. Good morning to you at home as well, some sunshine out and | :47:26. | :47:30. | |
about, particularly England and Wales and across Scotland. I will | :47:31. | :47:33. | |
show you the satellite picture which picks out the best of the sunshine | :47:34. | :47:38. | |
across southern and eastern Scotland, sunshine in towards | :47:39. | :47:41. | |
Northern Ireland. Plenty of holes in the cloud where we are seeing lots | :47:42. | :47:44. | |
of sunny spells but further west, thicker cloud because of a weather | :47:45. | :47:48. | |
front moving in which will introduce outbreaks of rain. It will spread | :47:49. | :47:51. | |
eastwards and southwards as the afternoon wears on. Meanwhile, | :47:52. | :47:56. | |
further north, we're looking at some clear and cooler weather pushing its | :47:57. | :47:59. | |
way southwards and that will introduce more sunshine. A few | :48:00. | :48:02. | |
showers around in northern and western Scotland and strong winds | :48:03. | :48:05. | |
across the north-east down through the day. More sunshine getting in | :48:06. | :48:09. | |
towards Northern Ireland and northern England by the time we | :48:10. | :48:11. | |
reach the middle of the afternoon but further south, the weather front | :48:12. | :48:15. | |
is there so rather cloudy skies and spots of rain. Not quite as warm as | :48:16. | :48:21. | |
yesterday but we may see some slices of sunshine pushing in towards the | :48:22. | :48:24. | |
south-west later in the day, so it looks like there could be some rain | :48:25. | :48:31. | |
at Glastonbury, patchy rain, and the chance for some sunny spells towards | :48:32. | :48:33. | |
the end of the day. For London, rather cloudy, temperatures around | :48:34. | :48:41. | |
20 or 21 for the tennis at Queens club. Brighter skies across the | :48:42. | :48:44. | |
board finally pushing southwards by the time they reached the first part | :48:45. | :48:48. | |
of the night, the Cloud clearing to the south and the recipe for a cool | :48:49. | :48:51. | |
night, light winds and clear skies and that cooler air mass, looking up | :48:52. | :48:56. | |
values in single figures in room row places. We start on a chilly note on | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
Monday, high pressure dominates the scene but some could spells of | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
sunshine and this area of pressure will bring increasing cloud to | :49:06. | :49:08. | |
Western areas and rain towards Northern Ireland as the day wears on | :49:09. | :49:11. | |
but for much of Scotland and England and Wales, some good sunny spells | :49:12. | :49:15. | |
and a little bit warmer, scooping up there from the near continent, | :49:16. | :49:21. | |
temperatures of 22-25d. The rest of the week, low pressure is in charge, | :49:22. | :49:24. | |
some spells of heavy and maybe thundery rain and it will be quite | :49:25. | :49:27. | |
breezy thanks to the low pressure and there will be a lot of cloud | :49:28. | :49:32. | |
around too. Not a complete wash-out, there will be a little bit of | :49:33. | :49:33. | |
sunshine as well. Back to you. It's one of the biggest sporting | :49:34. | :49:37. | |
events taking place this year, but the chances are you've never | :49:38. | :49:40. | |
heard of it. Thousands of athletes from 23 | :49:41. | :49:42. | |
islands around the world have travelled to Gotland in Sweden | :49:43. | :49:45. | |
for the 2017 Island Games. Jen Smith is there | :49:46. | :49:49. | |
for us this morning. It looks like a beautiful day there. | :49:50. | :49:58. | |
So tell us a little bit more about the games and what will happen | :49:59. | :50:04. | |
later. It is a beautiful day but it is a slightly windy day here, which | :50:05. | :50:09. | |
might be troublesome for the first event of the 2017 Island Games, the | :50:10. | :50:14. | |
men's triathlon. I don't know if you can see that jetty at there, that is | :50:15. | :50:18. | |
where the first leg will get under way, the swimming for the triathlon | :50:19. | :50:23. | |
and it is a very competitive event. Ahead, this is one of the ones to | :50:24. | :50:29. | |
watch. Dan Hawksworth from Jersey is hoping to retain his title. He's a | :50:30. | :50:33. | |
Commonwealth level athlete and has appeared at the worlds and so this | :50:34. | :50:39. | |
is serious stuff. 2300 competitors are here in Gotland, this island in | :50:40. | :50:42. | |
the Baltic Sea, along with their supporters, friends and relatives | :50:43. | :50:47. | |
and coaches and the media like us. So why are we all here? Something | :50:48. | :50:49. | |
called the 2017 Island Games. 23 island nations, each with small | :50:50. | :50:57. | |
populations, come together every two years to compete in their own | :50:58. | :51:01. | |
bespoke competition. Some have travelled from the Arctic, others | :51:02. | :51:06. | |
from warmer climes. So, why? The Island Games is a wonderful event | :51:07. | :51:12. | |
for islands with populations of less than I think 100,000, but it is an | :51:13. | :51:16. | |
event where we can come together, regardless of the distance between | :51:17. | :51:19. | |
us, we can come together and celebrate what we all love to do and | :51:20. | :51:24. | |
what we do best to represent our islands. For us Gibraltarians, | :51:25. | :51:27. | |
definitely, because Olympics, Europeans, we don't have a chance of | :51:28. | :51:32. | |
medalling and this is where we have a chance of medalling, so this is a | :51:33. | :51:37. | |
big deal for us. It is about competition but also about making | :51:38. | :51:41. | |
friends and having fun and meeting a lot of cool people. Western Isles! | :51:42. | :51:50. | |
This year, Gotland is the host, it is a Swedish island in the Baltic | :51:51. | :51:54. | |
Sea and around 60,000 people live here, but for one week in June, over | :51:55. | :51:58. | |
2,000 competitors from islands as far afield as St Helena in the South | :51:59. | :52:03. | |
Atlantic and Bermuda in the Caribbean will come here. So how | :52:04. | :52:06. | |
much work is involved in putting that altogether? How much work? A | :52:07. | :52:10. | |
lot of work, I can tell you that. I've been employed for two and a | :52:11. | :52:14. | |
half years and we have been at this since 2007 or something like that, | :52:15. | :52:18. | |
so it is ten years in the making, from the 1st of May be host the | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
Games to coming to this day. And this they could see the beginning of | :52:24. | :52:26. | |
an Olympic career, like it has for some well-known Brits. We have some | :52:27. | :52:32. | |
older veterans in the company and their claim to fame is that they | :52:33. | :52:35. | |
once beat me Mark Cavendish, which is funny looking back now. There are | :52:36. | :52:40. | |
some hopefuls from the Isle of Man that following in his footsteps and | :52:41. | :52:43. | |
we will see where they are in a few years. And for some, it is closer | :52:44. | :52:47. | |
than that. And it from the Isle of Wight hopes to make it to the gold | :52:48. | :52:50. | |
Coast next April. I compete for Scotland now in the Commonwealth | :52:51. | :52:54. | |
Games, I have done the last three Games and the qualifying distance is | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
67.5m, which I'm just short of this year so I need to get the qualifying | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
distance and get a trip to Australia next year. So while as the friendly | :53:03. | :53:07. | |
Games, there is still some serious competition. | :53:08. | :53:11. | |
And, Andy, as you saw in that report, he is hoping to go for his | :53:12. | :53:18. | |
ninth consecutive gold medal in the hammer throw, which would actually | :53:19. | :53:22. | |
be an Island Games record and as he mentioned, he is hoping to also | :53:23. | :53:24. | |
compete or to qualify for the Commonwealth Games, so it does show | :53:25. | :53:29. | |
you the level of competition that you can expect here. Other | :53:30. | :53:31. | |
highlights this week include a Guernsey swimmer called miles Munro, | :53:32. | :53:36. | |
already a youth Olympic champion and he will start his competition today | :53:37. | :53:39. | |
and going all the way until Thursday. Also this afternoon, the | :53:40. | :53:45. | |
women's football, a hotly contested event between the Scandinavian | :53:46. | :53:47. | |
island nations and the Channel Islands. And as I said, they are all | :53:48. | :53:53. | |
here in Gotland, we are here in the capital, a medieval town and you can | :53:54. | :53:57. | |
see some of the ruins behind me, it is peppered with places like this, | :53:58. | :54:03. | |
so 2300 competitors from 23 island nations, 16 sports across seven days | :54:04. | :54:07. | |
of competition, so hopefully that has given you some flavour of what | :54:08. | :54:10. | |
to expect here this week and maybe we will see you for Gibraltar in | :54:11. | :54:15. | |
2019. It looks absolutely fabulous there, | :54:16. | :54:16. | |
thank you. We regularly hear about the richest | :54:17. | :54:19. | |
people in the world, or the most successful - | :54:20. | :54:21. | |
but what about the happiest? This morning, The Independent | :54:22. | :54:24. | |
published it's alternative It celebrates those people who give | :54:25. | :54:25. | |
kindness and compassion to help change the lives of people | :54:26. | :54:29. | |
in their communities. We're delighted to be joined by two | :54:30. | :54:32. | |
people on the list - You both are responsible for other | :54:33. | :54:43. | |
people's happiness, how does that feel? Well, it's a great honour and | :54:44. | :54:49. | |
a privilege but actually, I think this is an amazing list and I feel | :54:50. | :54:52. | |
honoured and lucky to be honoured because it celebrates ordinary | :54:53. | :54:57. | |
people, celebrates people who are unsung heroes who necessarily might | :54:58. | :55:00. | |
not get recognition for some of their work. And in fact, you both | :55:01. | :55:04. | |
deal with pretty tough subjects in your lives. You, Mandy, look after | :55:05. | :55:11. | |
women's right, you have been campaigning for many years against | :55:12. | :55:15. | |
FGM. I am human rights activist and do a lot of work globally and not | :55:16. | :55:19. | |
just in the UK and I talk about harmful practices, so forced | :55:20. | :55:23. | |
marriages, FGM and other harmful practices like witchcraft and do a | :55:24. | :55:28. | |
lot of work with disability, which is where Michelle and I found a lot | :55:29. | :55:32. | |
of synergy today but what I was so pleased about being on this list, | :55:33. | :55:35. | |
Remiluc that Britain recently with Manchester and everything else, this | :55:36. | :55:40. | |
is just a really feel-good list that I thought was a really lovely thing | :55:41. | :55:44. | |
to wake up to. You talk about Michelle here, you work in the | :55:45. | :55:48. | |
voluntary sector, effectively. Yes, I Rana social enterprise looking | :55:49. | :55:53. | |
after people with learning difficulties and disabled people and | :55:54. | :55:58. | |
older people. So like I say, these are tough subjects. I'm sure not | :55:59. | :56:02. | |
every day is filled with happiness but there must be a great reward to | :56:03. | :56:05. | |
come from it as well, tell us about that. I think the role that we do | :56:06. | :56:10. | |
can be emotionally draining but it is also really emotionally rewarding | :56:11. | :56:13. | |
as well, so every day, we work with our clients and they leave happy and | :56:14. | :56:18. | |
smiling. What other little things you can do to make a difference to | :56:19. | :56:23. | |
people's lives? We work with clients and teach them how to do art, stay | :56:24. | :56:28. | |
safe on computers, we work with their physical health as well as | :56:29. | :56:32. | |
emotional and mental well-being, so we have been teaching them how to | :56:33. | :56:36. | |
learn new things like Tai Chi, we have an amazing in structure, and we | :56:37. | :56:39. | |
take them to the gym, because we are doing training for a run in the | :56:40. | :56:47. | |
summer forecast country. And these things they simply wouldn't have you | :56:48. | :56:54. | |
weren't there. Yes, we have amazing volunteers and they come and give | :56:55. | :56:59. | |
their time. Like I was just saying, because obviously when I support a | :57:00. | :57:04. | |
person that might be abused or might be fleeing a forced marriage or | :57:05. | :57:08. | |
going through a harmful practice, now we are breaking up for summer | :57:09. | :57:12. | |
holidays, which is the most vulnerable time for young people and | :57:13. | :57:15. | |
if we look at the figures as well, we know that there are an awful lot | :57:16. | :57:18. | |
of young people who are not going to have a summer holiday like you or I | :57:19. | :57:22. | |
where we might just go off on a beach holiday or something else, | :57:23. | :57:27. | |
some people might go away and be promised to marry somebody or | :57:28. | :57:29. | |
somebody might be going through a horrific practice of FGM and this is | :57:30. | :57:33. | |
why it is so important and it was a nice thing to wake up this morning, | :57:34. | :57:37. | |
but however, the reality is we live in very different times right now | :57:38. | :57:42. | |
and when we look at what is happening with Brexit, what has | :57:43. | :57:46. | |
happened in London and in Manchester, in recent weeks... Those | :57:47. | :57:49. | |
big issues mean we can sometimes be very focused on our own lives | :57:50. | :57:53. | |
because you close in, almost, but what you have done is open out and | :57:54. | :57:56. | |
say I'm going to try and make a difference. And I think when we look | :57:57. | :58:01. | |
at the spirit of British people in recent days, especially in | :58:02. | :58:04. | |
Manchester after the attack, and how people have come out, there is so | :58:05. | :58:07. | |
much goodwill out here, would you not agree? Absolutely. Well those | :58:08. | :58:13. | |
lucky that we are from the north and the clients we work with our amazing | :58:14. | :58:17. | |
and it makes our job so much easier. So brilliant here and there are | :58:18. | :58:20. | |
massive smiles on your faces, I love it. You are welcome any time. And | :58:21. | :58:23. | |
we have had so many of your lovely pictures of what makes you happy | :58:24. | :58:29. | |
this morning. Sometimes, it is the little things. Here is | :58:30. | :58:34. | |
three-month-old Jamie full of smiles in west Lothian. And here is Ted, | :58:35. | :58:38. | |
especially happy when he is eating, according to Helen and Ian. And from | :58:39. | :58:44. | |
Tina and Peter, the five attempts of IDS, they are delighted to find out | :58:45. | :58:48. | |
they are pregnant with twins. That is it from Breakfast for now, hope | :58:49. | :58:54. | |
you have a great Sunday. Stay happy. Goodbye. | :58:55. | :59:08. | |
SI KING: Let me guess, you're seeing a garden, aren't you? | :59:09. | :59:11. | |
DAVE MYERS: Well, we're seeing a kitchen! | :59:12. | :59:15. |
