04/07/2017 Breakfast

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker.

A plan for a revolution in cancer care using gene tests.

The mapping of DNA could mean tailor made treatments for millions

Good morning, it's Tuesday fourth July.

We hear from the family of the youngest victim

of the Manchester Arena bombing, Saffie Roussos, speaking

for the first time about their loss on what would have been

We didn't want to just let her birthday pass. We just wanted to

celebrate her birthday through doing this.

Ministers are told to hold their nerve over public sector pay

Nearly five million people are self-employed -

but they don't automatically get the minimum wage.

I'll look at what it means for workers.

It all went well yesterday, didn't it?

Injury fears prove unfounded as Andy Murray breezes

into the second round at Wimbledon with a straight sets victory

Carol has the weather. Not much of a brief today. It will be dry and

sunny but we have persistent rain across the central area of the UK --

breeze. If you come to Wimbledon, only 10% chance of a shower. And we

might play tennis! Something to look forward to.

A plan to revolutionise the treatment that cancer patients

receive, through individually mapping their DNA, is being proposed

by the Chief Medical Officer for England.

The proposals would mean millions of patients would have treatments

that were directly targetted at the particular strain

Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh reports.

More than 30,000 NHS patients, mostly with cancer or rare diseases,

have had their entire genetic code mapped.

Some patients with cancer are having the genetic profile of their tumours

analysed to determine which is the best treatment for them.

Sally told me that Jim Rome testing needs to be turned into a national

network, to ensure all patients have access

Patients need to be close to their treatments.

All people with rare diseases, of whom there are at

Most patients with cancers and quite a lot of infections.

Dame Sally says six in ten cancer patients who get gene tested

receive the personalised treatment based on their DNA

It costs ?680 to map a person's genetic

code, but it gets cheaper every few months.

In some cases, DNA mapping can be cheaper than existing tests

or avoid the need for invasive biopsies.

This report is an attempt to democratise genomics,

moving DNA analysis into the mainstream so that more

patients can benefit from personalised, targeted treatments.

We will be speaking with Dame Sally Davies later.

After days of pressure from some Cabinet ministers to lift the one %

public sector pay cap, Philip Hammond has said

the government must hold its nerve.

Last night, the Chancellor said the Government would continue

to assess the balance between being fair to public

servants and the taxpayers who fund their wages.

Our political correspondent Chris Mason joins us now

What has he said? It's almost as if the cabinet table has been set up in

the garden of Downing Street or in the street outside Parliament.

Anyone walking past can hear what Cabinet ministers have had to say.

I've run out of fingers on one hand yesterday tried to count the number

of Cabinet ministers who have publicly said that perhaps it was

time to say goodbye to the 1% public sector pay cut. Perhaps we shouldn't

be that surprised that Chancellor Philip Hammond quite late last night

in a speech in London to business leaders was pretty aggrieved in his

language, saying it was time for a grown-up debate about public sector

pay saying they should be a balance struck between properly rewarding

public servants and ensuring it was fair for those who paid for them, in

other words, taxpayers. That are bleak, the Chancellor is saying,

"Hang on a minute." There may be a clamour for change and he is not

saying there won't be a change that he isn't shifting the policy yet. In

other words, we need to wake of the individual pay review Polec --

bodies to make their individual recommendations and then see what

the government does. The teachers and police officers are coming in

the next few weeks but nurses who reached a decision with their pay

body a few months ago, they are in for a long wait. Will thou be a pay

rise for 5 million public sector workers? Possibly. -- will there be?

You had a long pause there. A new report warns that nearly

700,000 children in England are living in families

described as "high risk". The report by the

Children's Commissioner, Anne Longfield, also says many

vulnerable young people struggle with abuse or mental

health problems. It concludes that large numbers

of children who need help Whether the victims of abuse,

living in unstable households or dealing with mental health

problems, there are many reasons that children

could be vulnerable. The children's Commissioner

for England as the data doesn't She says these children

are often invisible, and don't receive

the support they need. The report aims to produce

an accurate picture of the scale It found nearly 700,000 children

live in high-risk families. Almost 30,000 live with adults

receiving drug or alcohol treatment. 200,000 are recognised as having

experienced abuse or trauma. In almost 600,000 cases,

children were so vulnerable, where the state had to step

in to provide support. The fact is that nobody knows

at the moment how many vulnerable We have had 12 statisticians

working over four months, on the best data available,

and this is the best estimate We also know, while the statistics

are shocking, they are the tip The Children's Minister says support

for vulnerable children is being given across

the Government, but says Kensington and Chelsea Council has

chosen a new leader. Councillor Elizabeth Campbell

replaces Nicholas Paget-Brown, who resigned following criticism

over the authority's response She apologised to the community

for the handling of the disaster. The first thing I want to do is

apologise. This is our community and we have failed it, when people

needed us the most. We are truly sorry. As a new leader, I will

appoint a new Cabinet tomorrow and things are going to change. The

first thing I'm going to do is to reach out to our community so we can

begin to heal the wounds. Charities that harass donors

for cash could be fined up to 25,000 pounds under new rules

being introduced this week. A new Fundraising Preference

Service beginning on Thursday will allow

the public to ask charities If charities choose to ignore

warnings from the regulator they will be reported

to the information Commissioner South Korean authorities say

North Korea has fired a ballistic missile from its western region -

the 11th detected missile South Korean officials say

an unidentified rocket was tracked Media in Japan are reporting it

landed in Japanese waters. North Korea has increased

the frequency of its nuclear and missile tests in recent

months raising tensions. Liverpool could be set

to lose its UNESCO World Heritage status over concerns

that planned skyscrapers Originally given World

Heritage status in 2004, recognising the docks role

as a major trade centre, if removed Liverpool would become

only the second city to be deleted The Government will have the chance

to review protective measures before One small step for man,

one giant leap for fried food. History was made after a Hull chip

shop delicacy called a pattie The pattie, made from fried mashed

potato seasoned with herbs, was sent up 37km -

to the edge of the Earth's atmosphere - attached

to a weather balloon. It was launched from

a site in Sheffield - and after a short flight

above the UK it floated back down and landed in a field

in Lincolnshire. Question of the day, was it still

edible? A year ago, we had cold chips in the studio. It was really

bad. There is one other thing we need your help with today. Later in

the programme, we are looking at a new film called What If Women Ruled

The World? . What did you think of that? Send in your comments. Or you

can tweet us. And you can tell us what you think about Wimbledon as

well. The big mug is out. That's no way to

talk about me. Sorry, couldn't resist it.

We have been doing game, set, mug. Watch me fail. I will do the Murray

technique. This is what Andy Murray did. Oh! Just didn't work. We have

in timing the players and the aim is to get as many tennis balls inside

this mug as they can. Andy Murray Court 14 in. We also filled with

Johanna Konta who played today and came through the first round no

problem. How would she do in game, set, mug? Have a look at this.

Morning everybody. I'm delighted to say we are joined for our BBC

breakfast mug challenge with the British number one Johanna Konta.

Good morning. Good morning. You have faced some challenges in your time.

Had you ever faced anything quite like this? I think this is the

biggest challenge of all. Game, set, mug. You have 30 seconds. You are

already primed. What is your technique? I will approach it with

as much control as possible so I will go under rum. I will time you

for 30 seconds on my phone. You ready? -- under arm. Nice. Get the

measure of it. That was a good one. It's really difficult to get the

length of this shot. This is more challenging than you might think.

Keep going. We have 15 seconds left. You are halfway now, Johanna Konta.

More speed, go as fast as you can, just keep trying. We have five

seconds left. Johanna Konta, five, of four, three, two, one. Yes! You

got it in! Let's have a look. Let's not have a look. -40 eight. Two. --

minus 48. I can't believe she did that the week before Wimbledon with

all the training and everything else going on but you can see how

difficult it is. An fully, though, I have the most glamorous ball girl in

wind -- in Wimbledon helping me. You need a bit more practice. Shall I do

it under arm? No chance. I can't! Well done! High five! My trouble is

my eyesight. I'll do one more. Look at back! Let's look at the game,

set, mug leaderboard. I believe Andy Murray is top. I think he has 14.

There we saw Johanna Konta, second with two. Many more people to come.

Did I just get at two in? I am equal with Johanna Konta! You did! I'm

impressed. Now onto the serious business of the Wimbledon weather.

Anyway, this morning it is lovely in Wimbledon. The Sun is beating down,

the temperatures already 14 Celsius and the forecast is going to stay

largely dry. I say largely dry because there is only a 10% risk of

showers. So we are not going for bone dry and increasingly through

the day we will see more cloud spread in from the west. It will

break up through the course of the afternoon and we will see some sunny

spells developing. Temperatures up to the low 20s. It is going to turn

warmer for us all, though, as we go through the next few days, with

temperatures in some parts of the South hitting 30 Celsius, but not

today. Today we have got some sunshine in the south-east and

variable amounts of cloud. That cloud is big enough to produce some

patchy light rain and drizzle until we get to the north of England and

southern and central Scotland. Here we have some persistent and heavy

rain. North Scotland, clearer skies and a chilly start. That rain also

extending in through Northern Ireland and as we come south back

into Wales, south-west England, again bright skies, some sunny

spells around in that holds true as we drift back towards the east,

across southern counties of England as well. Some cloud around, some

patchy light rain and drizzle, but a lot of dry weather as well stop

through the course of the day that band of rain you can see in the

Central swathe of the country will be heavy and persistent. It will be

on and off through the course of the day as well. Northern Scotland

seeing some sunshine. Further south where we have the cloud it drifts

towards the east and breaks up. You could see one or two showers across

the Midlands and East Anglia, temperatures around 25 Celsius in

London, fresher than that as we move further north and feeling chilly if

you are stuck under the band of rain. Through the evening and

overnight, we still have the weather front reducing the rain but

increasingly it will fragment and turned lighter and more drizzly.

There will also be some hill fog and coastal fog as well. Temperatures in

towns and cities staying in double figures. Tomorrow we have the

remnants of that front across Northern Ireland, southern Scotland

and northern England, where it will brighten up as we go through the

course of the afternoon. A lot of dry weather tomorrow. Quite a bit of

sunshine as well. Temperatures in the roughly 18 to about 20 but

across England and Wales we are looking widely at the mid to high

20s. Some parts of the south-east could hit 30, but it should be hot

and humid and dry at Wimbledon tomorrow. As we head on in the

Thursday, importing this humid air from the near continent so

increasingly we will see thunderstorms develop, especially

across England, Wales and southern Scotland. If you catch one, it could

well be torrential. That may cause some interruptions at Wimbledon. If

you move further north into Northern Ireland in Scotland we are looking

at something that bit right, but still the potential on Thursday for

somewhere in the south to hit 30 Celsius. So once again it is getting

hot, but not quite as hot as it was a couple of weeks ago when it hit

34.5dC. It redlly does look gorgeous. Plenty more from Carol and

Sally from Wimbledon throughout day two. The front page of the Guardian,

we are talking about public sector pay and they have really looked at

the impact on public sector pay, on police and teachers. They say the

average pay of teachers fell by ?3 an hour in real terms, and that of

police officers by ?2 an hour, through the public sector freezers.

This is according to a new report. Lots of different stories being told

in that High Court hearing. The front page of the Daily Telegraph,

lots of pictures on the front pages of the Duchess of Cambridge, who was

at Wimbledon yesterday. Quite a few people getting excited about her new

haircut, apparently she has lost six inches. Charities face ?25,000 fines

for pestering. We will be speaking with guests later in the programme

about that. The front page of the Times is about tax cuts, we have

been discussing that already this morning. I love the story because I

am very forgetful. Next time you can't find your keys, you can't

remember your O-level history, but obviously for U2 Mac, GCSE history,

find yourself in trouble about forgetting your wedding anniversary,

do not blame old age but your brain's mechanisms for neural

transience. It is all good. Just having a moment relapse of neural

transience. -- momentary lapse. And the Mirror, give heroes a decent

rise, all about the public sector pay gap. And various quotes from the

Prime Minister that she has made after disasters, and saying it is

time to remove that pay cap on public sector. That is something we

will be talking about throughout the morning as well. Can you remember

what that thing is called? And neural... Nearly. Neuronal

transience. Exactly. Good morning to you. One story in the business pages

as far as the business press is concerned. More delays to the

Hinkley point power station. That is on the front of the Telegraph, and

also the business pages of the Guardian and the FT, ?1.5 billion

extra cost as far as that project is concerned. Remember, this is the

untried and untested technology. The one in France being dealt six years

behind schedule -- being built. There is an expectation that the

project on the south coast could run even further over, and the cost, of

course, for all of us when it comes to how much we are paying for the

energy it generates. I want to show you this one as well, in the Times.

30 jobs on offer at Italy's Central Bank. They got 85,000 applications

for those 30 jobs. They said they will whittle down the number was,

reducing it to people who have degrees, then a multiple-choice

exam, but 300 candidates will interview for 30 vacancies. We have

time for one quick one. Yours looks a bit more interesting. I have

tortoise that got home. This is graffiti that was actually written

on the frescoes in ancient Egypt, written by people who went there and

complaining about what they had seen, and they are trying to

preserve it now as something academic. What do they complain

about? I can't read the hieroglyphics, said one. I visited

and did not like anything apart from the sarcophagus. They would be able

to study that for their GCSE. As long as it is not their own levels.

The main stories this morning: England's chief medical officer says

millions of cancer patients could soon have their DNA mapped

The Chancellor says the Government must hold its nerve,

despite some Cabinet colleagues calling for an end to the public

Eight-year-old Saffie Roussos was the youngest of the 22 victims

She went to the Ariana Grande concert with her sister Ashlee

and their mum, Lisa, who is still recovering in hospital.

Today would have been Saffie's ninth birthday,

and to mark the day, her dad, Andrew, and siblings Ashlee

and Zander have spoken for the first time to the BBC

You couldn't be out with Saffie without having fun. At her dream was

to be famous. It was her everything, and we bought her the tickets for

Christmas, and she was just counting the days, the seconds, and it was

just Ariana Grande until 9pm, 10pm at night, and she would sing and

dance to every single song. She was Ariana Grande obsessed. So to see

how happy she was, it was just... Obviously I had to go with her. You

were watching her watching Ariana pretty much. She said come on,

Ashlee, you promise me you would get up and dance. So we had a little

dance, and she was just so happy, just elated all-night, grinning.

When did you first become aware there was something wrong? As soon

as the blast went off. Obviously it was... I mean, to me, I kind of just

knew. I don't know how, I knew what happened. I remember I was thrown to

the ground, and my next instinct, I just sort of rolled over and

crawled, because I couldn't walk. Were you aware of where your mum was

at the time, where Saffie was? Two no, I couldn't see anyone, but a

sort crowds and crowds of people. For you, that night, Andrew, had you

come to the arena to collect? What were you doing? We were sitting

there for just a few minutes, and didn't hear anything, but just hell

broke loose. It was just people, children, screaming. Crying. And

then, as I turned around the corner, saw Ashlee outside, injured. And

when did you learn about Saffie? A detective that I spoke to in the

hospital, he went away and came back about 12am, and told me. And you

have all had to cope, haven't you, with Saffie 's loss, and also Lisa's

recovery. How was she doing? She is fighting. I mean, she's got that

many injuries around the body. Just that alone. She is like a soldier.

How are you finding it, Xander? There is times when you're sad, and

times when you're happy. So is kind of like a mix. The world knew what

had happened. Lisa was not conscious. When she came round, you

had to tell her. No. She looked at me and said to me, Saffie 's gone,

isn't she? I was dreading it, she just looked at me and said she is

gone, isn't she? She knew. The fourth of July, Saffie 's birthday,

that is why you are speaking out. Yes, we didn't want to just let the

best they pass. I just wanted to celebrate Saffie 's birthday,

through doing this. What has your family lost? We've lost everything.

We have. Because life will just never be the same.

And it is really sobering watching that, remembering Saffie, isn't it?

That was Andrew Roussos and his childrenm Ashlee and Xander,

speaking to our reporter Judith Moritz.

We would just like to say a big thank you to them all for speaking

to us about Saffie this morning. morning and into the afternoon as

I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom

Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker

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

but coming up on Breakfast this morning -

We'll be at the looking at some brand new scientific innovation -

as engineers find ground breaking ways of detecting the tiniest

of cracks in some of our biggest buildings.

Also this morning, sandwich chain Subway has more

outlets than McDonalds, but Ben will be asking their boss

why it's still not cracked the breakfast market.

And, Bridget Kendall was the BBC's Moscow correspondent

during the collapse of the Soviet Union -

she'll be here to talk about her new book which looks

at that time through the eyes of those who experienced it

But now a summary of this morning's main news.

A plan to revolutionise the treatment that cancer patients

receive, through individually mapping their DNA, is being proposed

by the Chief Medical Officer for England.

The proposals would mean millions of patients would have treatments

that were directly targetted at the particular strain

Patients will benefit if we can offer them the scan of their genome

that will make a difference to their treatments.

That's clearly all people with rare diseases,

of whom there are three million or more in this country.

It's most patients with cancers and quite a lot of infections.

We'll be speaking to the Chief Medical Officer -

Dame Sally Davies, that's at ten past seven.

The Chancellor says the government must "hold its nerve" -

despite some cabinet colleagues calling for an end to the public

Speaking in London last night, Philip Hammond said

he understood people were "weary" after seven years of austerity

but rejected calls to "take the foot off the pedal".

A new report warns that nearly 700 thousand children in England

are living in families described as "high risk".

The BBC has confirmed it will invest an additional ?34 million

in expanding digital programming for children,

as it attempts to win their attention in a changing online

The new investment will be spent on content that will include video,

blogs, vlogs, podcasts, quizzes, games and apps.

-- we know sally is at Wimbledon for the next few weeks. Lots of good

news from yesterday. Good morning, Sally. Yes. Lots of good news to

report from yesterday and Carol will tell you with more details of later

some fantastic weather. It will look gorgeous on the television today and

if you are coming today, you have Piggot reggae. Andy Murray -- you

have peaked at good day. Tradition dictates that

the defending men's champion opens play on Centre Court and Andy Murray

didn't disappoint the home crowd. Against the unpredictable

Alexander Bublik, Murray looked to be feeling no ill effects

from his hip injury. He made it through in straight sets

in under two hours and will play The way he plays, he comes to the

net a lot, he is approaching. Worked on my passing shots and lobs and

those things because they will be at different type of match. He plays a

bit more from the net. Joining Murray in the second

round is Aljaz Bedene. The British number four came

through an epic five setter, The match lasting well over four

hours - four tie-breakers and 8-6 There's been a big upset

at the top of the men's draw. Three time Grand Slam winner

and world number three He was beaten by 21-year-old

Wimbledon debutant Danil Medvedev. The world number 49 is playing

in only his third grand slam. A much easier day's

work for Johanna Konta. She beat Chinese Taipie's Hsieh

Su-Wei in straight sets, avenging her first round defeat

at the French Open to And Konta will be joined

by Heather Watson. The British number two

continued her impressive form, beating Marina Zanevska

of Belgium in straight sets. Venus was involved in a fatal car

crash and she was asked about it. No words to describe how devastating

and... Yeah. I'm completely speechless. I'm just... Maybe I

should go. Difficult scenes in the press conference.

History is huge. The stadium itself. The training ground and facilities.

When you look back at the history of the players that have been here over

the years, in credible. It is a big football club and deserves to be in

the Premier League and that's the reason I'm here.

What are the chances of Aston Villa playing Chelsea next cup? I want to

tell you about Mandy Minella. After hate match, she gave a press

conference and announced something... She played the match at

4.5 months pregnant. That's brilliant, isn't it? To turn up and

at Wimbledon 4.5 months pregnant. We will see you at bit later. We will

stay with the sporting theme. Watching live Premier League action

via unauthorised providers is common among football fans,

according to a new survey done More than a third of

Premier League football fans regularly watch matches online

via unofficial streams. 32% of fans don't know

whether it's illegal to stream Premier League matches

from unofficial providers. Younger fans are more likely

to watch matches via unofficial streams, two thirds of the surveyed

people aged 18-34 say they do so at least once a month, compared

to a third of 35-54 year-olds. Jim, can you talk us

through the findings? Are there some surprises? We spoke

to 1000 fans and as you say, we spoke about the various viewing

habits, some of them legal. Also the use of unofficial streams and

websites. The numbers are quite surprising. We talk about nearly

half of fans at some point having watched the game by an unofficial

stream and a lot of fans doing this regularly. One in five fans every

week. The number of younger fans, as you say, are more likely. There is

confusion around the law which seems to be a big thing coming out of it.

One third of fans says it is illegal and you have another third saying

they don't know what the law is. A few other actors in between about

whether it might be illegal or might not and whether you might get in

trouble from Sky or the Premier League. Some people are willing to

break the law and some people don't know the law. The law is you

shouldn't do it. Football fans talk about it being a grey area but as

far as copyright experts and the Premier League is saying, it is

black and white, it is illegal. That was the European Court Justice

ruling a few weeks ago saying streaming is the same as downloading

so even if you are not saving something to your computer or your

phone, even if you are just watching it, you are still breaking the law.

In terms of technology, it's pretty easy to find these things on the

Internet. There is a special box you can get. These boxes are legal.

There are legal waste used them. Issue comes when the codec is

modified and it allows you to watch pirated content. We have prosecuted

people selling these boxes when they have been modified and that is one

of the tactics the Premier League is now hoping to use. They want more

people prosecuted for this and cut it off at the source and make the

software harder to get hold of so it's not worth it for fans and makes

it more trouble to try and do it. Let's talk about the reasons why

they are doing it. Is it to do with the price of watching live football?

The most common reason, interestingly, a friend or family

member was doing it and they watched along with it. It wasn't really

need... I was just better at the time. They also talked about the

quality of the streams that were available. They work in parable to

watching it on TV. The third biggest reason was the price of traditional

TV packages. People saying, "Why should I pay ?50 per month for Sky

when I can get all the episodes I want to watch". The number of people

watching football dropped a bit last season. Is this part of it? All of

the providers saw their view is going down for their traditional TV

channels. That doesn't mean people are not watching Sky through the

other digital channels. There are other things happening. Also last

season you have big teams like Newcastle and Aston Villa that were

not in the Premier League so that might have had an impact. At the

moment, it's impossible to say how much the illegal streaming is an

impact on the legal viewing but it's obviously concern for the Premier

League and they say they will clamp down on it and keep going at it.

They will protect their copyright. Very interesting, thank you very

much. 642. This is breakfast on BBC News. Our main story this morning.

and for some, it will be hot. We have sunshine and cloud. For England

and Wales, quite a bit of cloud, producing patchy light rain or

drizzle here and there until we get to northern England and central and

southern Scotland. Here we get heavy and persistent rain. Scotland, and

not -- are bright and cool start. In Northern Ireland, a band of rain

that is affecting northern England and southern Scotland. For Wales,

cloudy start that it will brighten up. She could see the odd shower

this morning as well and as we drift across Southern counties, a similar

story. Variable amounts of cloud and sunshine. As the go through the day,

We still have the persistent and heavy rain across Northern Ireland

-- Northern Ireland, central and southern Scotland and northern

England. Temperatures under that band will feel chilly but we are

looking at double figures in into the high-teens in the north. In the

south, we could hit up to 26 around the London area. Through this

evening and overnight, the weather system is still ensconced across the

central swathe of the UK. The rain will increasingly turn lighter and

more patchy in nature. There will be some hill fog and coastal fog but

equally on either side of it, we will see clear skies. It won't be a

cold night. The temperatures you can see here will be in towns and cities

and the countryside will be low. Tomorrow, we start off once again

with the weather front. Start on a cloudy note with patchy rain but

through the day, it will brighten up. Tomorrow, they will be a lot of

sunshine across the board. Temperatures in England and Wales

widely mid- high 20s. Locally and parts of the south-east, up to 30

and it will feel humid. In the northern half of the UK, more

comfortable with temperatures into the low 20s. For Thursday as we

import the humid air from France, it will spark off some thunderstorms.

There will be long, dry sunny spells on Thursday as well. Where you catch

the thunderstorms, the likely areas England, Wales and southern Scotland

classed as self-employed. There has been a lot of debate

about the so-called gig economy, where lots of people work

for themselves as drivers or couriers, but for a company that

decides what they get paid per hour. Well, there are around five million

people who are self-employed Half of them, even working

full-time, are classed as low-paid, and they are not covered

by the minimum wage. The Resolution Foundation

says they should be. Conor D'arcy is from

the Resolution Foundation. I touched on it about who we are

discussing, but we should be clear it is not about people who run their

own firm and take money from the firm is a wage. It is people who

work for somebody else but officially are classed as

self-employed. That's right, so if you ring up a plumber, he works for

himself, says his own prices, he decides how much to charge you, and

this doesn't apply to him because he can't pay himself more. If you work

for a company, and they have set prices, what we are saying is while

they are doing that work there should be getting the minimum wage.

And some of these firms you might call up other so-called gig economy

firms. It is someone who delivers your pics are, drives you around in

a taxi, and those are the jobs we are really keeping an eye on,

because actually they are working a lot of hours in some cases were not

much money. Absolutely. The first thing is around employment status,

first of all, whether they should be classed as workers or employees

rather than self-employed. There are lots of court cases around that at

the moment so if they are entitled to those rights they should

absolutely get them. What we are talking about is people who are in

those companies, definitely self-employed, to make sure that...

There are some really low paid self employed people, to give them some

pay protection would be really helpful. And clearly that pay

protection will be very important for people who do these jobs Day in

and day out. Some say they do these jobs because they are flexible, a

bit of money on the side, it strikes me that some of these jobs would not

exist if there there was a minimum wage. I think that flexibility is

important for a lot of people who really benefit from it and during

the recession and recovery, that was helpful because we had really high

employment levels. The argument that we are afraid of getting rid of

these jobs just because we are installing a minimum wage, you could

apply that to any job or employee position so I think giving a basic

flaw to anyone doing this work should not mean that these companies

have to go out of business or that these jobs don't work any more.

There should be a way to balance both that flexibility and a little

bit of protection at the bottom. One of the biggest problems as far as

the job market in the UK is concerned is that flexibility. We

know that productivity is not where it should be, wedges on where they

should be, income is falling. From an employer's point of view, they

would find it very difficult to impose or pay a minimum wage? I

don't think so. You look across the rest of the economy, the national

minimum wage has become a big increase in the cost employers are

facing, so it is not straightforward, but if other

companies using employees and workers can do this, gig economy

firms or similar workers should be able to meet at least that basic

minimum. It has such an interesting area. Thank you very much, and more

from me after seven a.m.. Thank you very much, we will see you later.

Well, some of the world's brightest minds are gathering in London today

to showcase the best of British scientific achievement.

They are down at the annual Royal Society Summer Science

exhibition, which opens to the public later this morning.

Breakfast's Tim Muffett is there for us now.

This team are from the University of St Andrews, and they are

investigating how birds use tools and the wildlife to catch prey and

how that has affected human evolution. This is the Royal Society

Summer Science Exhibition, the Royal Society founded in 1660, and it

showcases the very best of UK science. It is about showing what

developments are happening, what might happen in the future. Now,

there are exhibitors from right across the UK here. Taking a look

over here, you can see some footprints, pictures of a dinosaur,

that gives you a clue into some of the filming I have been doing to see

what scientists here are hoping to discover, and how it might help us

all in the future. For the purposes of this report, I

am a criminal fleeing a crime scene. Police and forensics teams arrive

looking for clues. But thanks to a new project at Bournemouth

University, my footprints will reveal more about me than ever

before. So what we are doing here is known as photogrammetry. It is

recording with a normal camera 20 or 30 images of a single footprint to

build a 3-D model of the footprint that we are interested in. This is

how the footprint is recorded. You can even flip it underneath. OK, so

here is my shoe, then, that is the image of it. So what can you

ascertain about the way I walk? You have a very unique and distinctive

heel print. You can at least see that you tread very heavily on the

outside of your soul. This is distinctive, and it would be enough

to potentially make that distinction between these sorts of crimes. Like

finger prints and DNA, the team at Bournemouth University would like a

footprint database to be set up. Two police forces in England have

already started using this technology. It is not just our

footprints that are unique, but also our voices. At University College

London, is a primer Katherine Woodward is performing at a rather

unusual venue. What we are trying to do is find different ways of

investigating voices, and also starting to map out some of the

complexities of the voice. Up until now, we have been very limited in

that kind of information we can get about what was going on inside the

mouth when someone is talking. There are some really extraordinary shapes

she makes, where she is dropping her drawdown and really hitting those

high notes. You can either pushing the sound out. It is the smallest

space I have ever sung in in my life. Next it is the turn of rapper

Professor Elemental. As you can see their home at the tongue distorts

and changes when here's rapping. The team analysing and comparing extreme

vocal performances can bring extreme benefits. Their children growing up

with a cleft palate, adults who have a speech impediment following a

stroke and at the moment the speech and language specialists who work

with them are working in the dark in terms of actually understanding what

is going on inside their mouth. So this research will be shared with

speech therapists, and will hopefully boost our understanding of

the human voice. This is the place that I like to flip my flows, but

wrapping in this tube is not a place to scratch my nose. -- rapping.

It is about showcasing the best of British sciences from the university

sectors. The ideas people can come along here and get their hands on

scientific experience. These events first began in the 1850s, didn't

they? It was a bunch of fellows showing and telling, explaining to

their friends and colleagues what on earth was going on, what their

science was all about. In the 1990s this developed into a broader public

event, and I think we are delighted at the fact that we can bring the

general public into the Royal Society and showcase some of the

extraordinary science that is going on. Let's have a quick look at that

extraordinary science. You are from the University of Bristol. What have

you been developing? This stand is all about testing the safety of

structures. So these are testing the safety of planes, bridges, power

stations, and keeping them safe, so making sure there are no cracks or

corrosion in them. Over here we are testing the remaining thickness of

the structure using ultrasound sensor that is much quicker than

anything that has ever been made before, so it could be attached to a

drone, making these tests much, much faster and better. So the senses

will be permanently attached to the structure. So we are health testing

the structure here. It is such a fascinating building, this, because

it is full of history wherever you go. Former presidents include Sir

Christopher rent and Isaac Newton. A big team looking at developments,

and also a team from Cardiff University -- Sir Christopher Wren.

We are demonstrating making polymers and making energy. More from here

later on, it is fascinating stuff. You can sense the history and the

future of scientific exploration. It is fascinating in that piece of

seeing the CAT scan as well. That sopranos singing, I could talk about

that for a long time. Still to come this morning:

What if women ruled the world? We will meet the artists behind

a new play which depicts a female-led society

tackling a global emergency, Amy says underpants will always make

it to the laundry basket, and Dora says I prefer my world leaders to be

born with the humour Miller the gene. So many suggestions, no more

war, discussing at over coffee and cake! Some suggestions seem more

realistic than others. Most would be saying that is the case already.

Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

Really very warm for Thursday, and Friday, a little bit fresher

I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker.

A plan for a revolution in cancer care using gene tests.

The mapping of DNA could mean tailor made treatments for millions

Good morning, it's Tuesday fourth July.

We hear from the family of the youngest victim

of the Manchester Arena bombing, Saffie Roussos, speaking

for the first time about their loss on what would have been

We didn't want to just let her birthday pass.

And we just wanted to celebrate Saffie's birthday through

I'll ask the boss whether healthier fast food is the recipe for success.

Liverpool's waterfront is famous around the world,

but could it be about to lose its World Heritage status,

It all went to plan for Andy Murray yesterday. He didn't seem to

struggle to much with his his injury. How will the Wetherby,

Carol? A 10% risk of a shower. The forecast for the rest of the UK is

largely dry but there is an area of heavy, persistent rain extending

from Northern Ireland and into northern England. We will be back

with my details later. A plan to revolutionise

the treatment that cancer patients receive, through individually

mapping their DNA, is being proposed by the Chief Medical

Officer for England. The proposals would mean millions

of patients would have treatments that were directly targetted

at the particular strain Our medical correspondent

Fergus Walsh reports. More than 30,000 NHS patients,

mostly with cancer or rare diseases, have had their entire

genetic code mapped. Some patients with breast, lung,

skin and other cancers are having the genetic profile of their tumours

analysed to determine which is Dame Sally Davies told me genome

testing needs to be turned from a cottage industry

into a national network, Patients will benefit if we can

offer them the scan of their genome that will make a difference

to their treatments. That's clearly all people

with rare diseases, of whom there are 3 million

or more in this country. It's most patients with cancers

and quite a lot of infections. Dame Sally says six in ten cancer

patients who get gene tested receive personalised

treatment based on their DNA profile and that

proportion will rise. It costs ?680 to map a person's

entire genetic code, but it's getting cheaper

every few months. In some cases, DNA mapping can be

cheaper than existing tests or avoid the need

for invasive biopsies. This report is an attempt

to democratise genomics, moving DNA analysis

into the mainstream of the NHS so that more and more

patients can benefit from personalised,

targeted treatments. We'll be discussing this

is more detail with with the Chief Medical Officer

Professor Dame Sally Davies After days of pressure from some

Cabinet ministers to lift the one % public sector pay cap,

Philip Hammond has said the government must

hold its nerve. Last night, the Chancellor said

the Government would continue to assess the balance

between being fair to public servants and the taxpayers

who fund their wages. Our political correspondent

Chris Mason joins us now Where will we end up with this one?

You are asking me to make a prediction about politics and I have

learned that that is not something I can do. The whole discussion about

public sector pay is an illustration because the honest answer to that

question is we don't have an answer. The Chancellor Philip Hammond in

charge of all the money gave a speech late last night in London in

which he said yes, he gets that people are weary of the hard slog of

public sector pay restraint that yes, there are 5 million people who

have had a 1% pay cap. But government policy isn't changing.

That is despite the fact that my calculation, six government

ministers said that the public sector pay gap should change. The --

Philip Hammond is a no, it can't change. The review bodies that

recommend what should happen to different parts of the public sector

when it comes to pay will continue to make their recommendations, the

ones for teachers and police officers are coming up in the next

couple of weeks. Then it will be for the government to decide what it's

going to do. I think what will happen is that things will change

slowly. No big bang, no radical shift. I think I just made a

prediction which is what I set out to try and avoid doing... I was

going to pick you up on that. Good prediction in the end, even though

you tried. A new report warns that nearly

700,000 children in England are living in families

described as "high risk". The report by the

Children's Commissioner, Anne Longfield, also says many

vulnerable young people struggle with abuse or mental

health problems. It concludes that large numbers

of children who need help Whether the victims of abuse,

living in unstable households or dealing with mental health

problems, there are many reasons why young people could be

deemed vulnerable. The children's commissioner

for England and Longfield says official data doesn't effectively

record those at risk. She warns this means

children are often invisible to the authorities, and don't

receive the support they need. Today's report aims to produce

an accurate picture of the scale It found nearly 700,000 children

live in high-risk families. Of those, almost 30,000 live

with adults receiving drug 200,000 children are recognised

by their local authority as having And in almost 600,000 cases,

children were deemed so vulnerable, the state had to step

in to provide support or care. The fact is that no one knows

at the moment how many vulnerable We have had 12 statisticians

working over four months on the best data available and this

is the best estimate we can get to. We also know, while the figures

themselves are shocking, they are also the tip

of the iceberg. The Children's Minister Robert

Goodwill says support for vulnerable children is being given

across the Government, Almost three weeks after

the disaster at Grenfell Tower, Kensington and Chelsea Council has

elected a new leader. Councillor Elizabeth Campbell

replaces Nicholas Paget-Brown, who resigned following criticism

over the authority's The first thing I want to do

is I want to apologise. This is our community and we have

failed it when people needed So no buts, no ifs, no

excuses, I am truly sorry. As new leader, I will appoint

a new cabinet tomorrow and things South Korean authorities say

North Korea has fired a ballistic missile from its western region -

the 11th detected missile South Korean officials say

an unidentified rocket was tracked Media in Japan are reporting it

landed in Japanese waters. North Korea has increased

the frequency of its nuclear and missile tests in recent

months raising tensions. Charities that harass donors

Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids - but the city of Liverpool

could lose its UNESCO World Heritage If removed Liverpool would become

only the second city to be deleted Jayne McCubbin

is there for us. We can see why it is a UNESCO World

Heritage site. It is beautiful. That we tell you why they had the first

place, iconic, beautiful, historically significant. So much so

that UNESCO gave it to this heritage status. A calling card that it was

allowed to send out the world saying this place is gorgeous, come and

visit. However, UNESCO believes this is under threat. Here is the reason

why. Let me turn the camera over here. You will see at development of

high rises over there which marks the edge of the Liverpool water's

development site. UNESCO say there are plans afoot down there and here

is a development of high rises over there which marks the edge of the

Liverpool Waters development site. UNESCO say there are planned keeping

with the splendour, the grandeur of this area. They want the government

to think again and the City Council, think again, or risk losing this

World Heritage status in 2018. More later.

We'll be back at Wimbledon for the weather with Carol

Patients with breast, lung, skin and other cancers could be

offered revolutionary new treatments, if plans to build

genetic profiles of their tumours go ahead.

These new proposals could mean genetic tests would be

offered to patients within five years.

England's Chief Medical Officer, Professor Dame Sally Davies

is behind the plan and joins us from Central London.

What are the implications Professor Davies?

How would this work? Well, what we know already is that if you look at

the whole genome, that is all that DNA that we have in each of our

cells and compare that with cancer cells then on 60% or more of cases,

two thirds, we see changes in the cancer gene known which tells us

something about the best way to treat those patients. Sometimes it

says they don't need strong, heavy, nasty treatment. Sometimes they say,

"There is a treatment here that will work well. Sometimes it says don't

go to that treatment, they will get nasty side-effects. Already, our

genome project is showing us we can do this and two thirds of patients

will benefit. What we need to do now is change how we deliver our

services. At the moment, we have genetic services genomics built up

where the scientists are and the regional genetic services are. I

want to bring science to patients, democratise it and make sure we have

a national service so patients everywhere can get access to

treatments that will make a difference. I am sure you are aware

that whenever we talk about health on this programme, we must talk

about cost as well. Part of this mapping process compare with an MRI

scan or something like that? Will that be a factor? Cost matters, of

course it does. What I am arguing at the moment because of the cottage

industry, we are already spending a lot of money and if we nationalise

it and won it properly with the best technology, the price will come down

so the amount we are spending, we can get a lot more test. Then we

will have to make some investments but let's start with making what we

are spending effectively. Is at 6- ?700? When we started it, it was

?7,000. It has to come down to about ?700. We know that if we had

nationalised laboratories, factory laboratories, then new technology a

rise, every 18 months- two years, that will bring the price down and

make it higher quality and the turnaround faster for patients. We

need to bring everything away from a cottage industry and make this a

proper science -based service for our patients. When you look at this

is mourning and hearing you describe it, it sounds like a brilliant plan,

cost-effective -- this morning. What are the stumbling blocks to rolling

this out across the United Kingdom? I see you smile. I imagine you have

put quite a lot of thought into what. You. Absolutely. First of all,

we need our 100,000 genome project to find that out. For instance, what

we learned through that project is that ordinary samples from tumours

will not give you the DNA. You have got to do fresh, frozen ones. The

NHS has already embarked on a massive programme of transformation

to get the right samples. We have got to spread that wider. Now we

need to move to centralised laboratories and NHS England has

already put out some information to the service about wanting to

commission nationally. We are steadily moving at we have to

confess which is probably why I smiled, that's my own tribe, the

doctors, don't like change. We need to patients saying, "Why am I not

getting this test? Why are you doing it locally? I want the better,

cheaper test done nationally." What you were

some viewers might be saying, how do you put pressure on? You have to go

to your GP and say, come on, give them a kick up the backside? Not

GPs. Doctors, generally. In a cancer service. The other point I want to

make, we need patience to understand that many to allow use of that data

alongside other patients' data to get the best diagnosis. If they

don't want their day to put into the national database and used in that

way, that is fine but their own diagnosis would then be based on

published data which is always 1-2 years out of date at best. For the

best diagnosis, we need these National laboratories. We need

patience to agree for their data to be used alongside other patients.

That means we have got to really look after that date are carefully.

I can reassure you, our genetic database is not only behind the NHS

firewall that has even more restrictions so we know everyone who

has accessed it and they can only do it with permission and then they

will get the best information and the best treatment available.

And protection of data, we know, is really important these days.

Carol is at Wimbledon with a look at this morning's weather.

It strikes me that you must be one of the people who really know

Wimbledon extremely well, and how to get from one place to another

quickly. And they are getting ready this morning. They certainly are,

you are quite right. Good morning. You can see that the ground staff

are preparing to take the covers of off court number one but it is a

hive of activity at this time of the morning and through the night. The

housekeeping staff work through the night ensuring that Wimbledon is

speak and span for all of us to come down and enjoy, or of course watch

television. -- spick and span. And the sun is beating down. It is

lovely warm and you will find that the forecast for Wimbledon today is

more cloud than yesterday, but nonetheless that cloud will tend to

break up and we will see some sunny spells. Temperatures could get as

high as 25 today with light winds. If you are coming down, they're that

in mind. For all of us in the next few days it get warmer, or it is

going to get hotter. Some parts in the south of England hitting 29 or

30 Celsius but this morning it is a pleasant start to the day. Quite a

bit of cloud across southern areas, some sunshine, and that cloud here

and there is producing the odd bit of patchy, like rain and drizzle. As

we head into northern England we run into a band of more persistent rain

and that also stretches across southern and central Scotland. It

has been a chilly start in northern Scotland, but here we are looking at

sunshine and a few showers. The same band of rain affecting northern

England affecting Northern Ireland, and some of that will be heavy and

persistent as we go through the day. For Wales in south-west England we

can't rule out a shower this morning. There is enough cloud, but

that will break and brighten up and we will see the sunshine come

through. The same holds true as we drift to the west, towards southern

counties of England. Through the course of the day that end of rain

will remain more or less where it is and it will be heavy and persistent

through the course of the day. For northern Scotland, one or two

showers and some sunshine but for the rest of England and Wales, the

cloud in the west breaks up and there is a chance of a shower in

East Anglia and the Midlands this afternoon, hires up to 25 Celsius.

Under the rain it will feel cool, and despite the sunshine it will be

chilly across the far north of Scotland. Through the evening and

overnight that band of rain tends to weaken, become more patchy in nature

and there will be heal and coastal fog around it. It will remain dry

and the countryside it will be chilly, but the temperatures you can

see on screen represent towns and cities. So tomorrow I weather front

is still across Northern Ireland, southern Scotland and northern

England as a weak feature. Cloudy, with some patchy rain but improving

through the day. The rain will tend to fizzle and tomorrow will probably

be the sunniest day of the week for most of us. For England and Wales it

will be very warm and hot, with temperatures widely from

Gloucestershire, Bristol, towards the London area, 28, 29 or 30 but

generally speaking we are looking at the low to mid 20s. On Thursday we

continue to import some hot air from France. We will likely see some

torrential thunderstorms developing. The likely areas for those at

England, Wales and southern Scotland. That is as much detail as

we can pin on it at the moment, in between there will be lengthy sunny

spells and we won't all see those storms. Highs again potentially up

to 30. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, some sunshine, but it won't

feel as oppressive. It will be rather pleasant, with temperatures

that little bit lower. It looks so glorious. The court being unveiled

behind Carroll as they make those final preparations. You can watch

the Wimbledon coverage on BBC throughout the day.

There are calls today for some people who are self-employed

to still have the right to the minimum wage.

Ben has more on that and the other main business stories.

Self-employed people should be entitled to the minimum wage,

according to a campaign group this morning.

It says 5 million people in the UK are self-employed,

but many have their rate of pay decided by the firms they work for.

It is now just over six weeks since the devastating bomb attack

Eight-year-old Saffie Roussos was the youngest of the 22 victims.

She went to the Ariana Grande concert with her sister Ashlee

and their mum, Lisa, who is still recovering in hospital.

Today would have been Saffie's ninth birthday,

and to mark the day, her dad, Andrew, and siblings Ashlee

and Xander have spoken for the first time to the BBC

You couldn't be out with Saffie without having fun.

It was her everything, and we bought her the tickets for

And she was just counting the days, the seconds, and it was just

Ariana Grande till 9:00pm, 10:00pm at night, and she would sing

So to see how happy she was, it was just...

You were watching her watching Ariana Grande?

She said, come on, Ashlee, you promised me you'd get

So we had a little dance, and she was just so happy,

When did you first become aware there was something wrong?

As soon as the blast went off, obviously it was...

I don't know how, but I knew what happened.

I remember I was thrown to the ground, and then my next

instinct, I just sort of rolled over and crawled,

Were you aware of where your mum was at the time, where Saffie was?

I just saw crowds and crowds of people.

For you that night, Andrew, had you come to the arena to collect?

We were sitting there for just a few minutes,

and didn't hear anything, but just hell broke loose.

It was just people, children, screaming, crying.

And then, as I turned around the corner, saw

A detective that I spoke to in the hospital, he went away

and he came back about 12:00am, 12:30am, and told me.

And you have all had to cope, haven't you, with Saffie's loss,

I mean, she's got that many injuries around her body,

There is times when you're sad, and times when you're happy.

When she came round, you had to tell her.

She looked at me and said to me, Saffie's gone, isn't she?

She just looked at me and says she's gone, isn't she?

Fourth of July, Saffie's birthday, that is why

Yes, we didn't want to just let the birthday pass.

I just wanted to celebrate Saffie's birthday, through doing this.

We have, we've lost everything, because life will just never

It is heartbreaking to watch, isn't it?

That was Andrew Roussos and his children Ashlee and Xander,

speaking to our reporter Judith Moritz.

We would just like to say a big thank you to them all for speaking

They wanted to do that interview so that Saffie was remembered on her

birthday, as well. Time now to get the news,

travel and weather where you are. Plenty more on our website

at the usual address. Now, though, it is back

to Louise and Dan. Hello, this is Breakfast,

with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. A plan to revolutionise

the treatment that cancer patients receive, through individually

mapping their DNA, is being proposed by the Chief Medical

Officer for England. The proposals would mean millions

of patients would have treatments that were directly targetted

What I am arguing is because of the cottage industry way we do these

tests, we are roadie spending a lot of money and actually, if we

nationalise it and run it properly with the best technology, the price

will come down so that amount we are spending, we can get a lot more test

and a lot better health for people. The Chancellor says the government

must "hold its nerve" - despite some cabinet colleagues

calling for an end to the public Speaking in London last night,

Philip Hammond said he understood people were "weary"

after seven years of austerity but rejected calls to "take

the foot off the pedal". A new report warns that nearly

quizzes, games and apps. One small step for man,

one giant leap for fried food. History was made after a Hull chip

shop delicacy called a pattie The pattie, made from fried mashed

potato seasoned with herbs, was sent up 37km -

to the edge of the Earth's atmosphere - attached

to a weather balloon. It was launched from

a site in Sheffield - and after a short flight

above the UK it floated back down and landed in a field

in Lincolnshire. You are wondering earlier whether it

was still edible. I'm wondering if that was my experience of cold chips

and other time on this programme. It gets quite cold up there.

Good morning, Sally. Good news from yesterday? No cold chips around

here, it's all very, very healthy. The tennis players look after their

health, I can tell you. Lots of salads, lots of protein, no chips.

We have moved around a little bit this morning. I just want to point

something out. Eagle eyed viewers might notice some difference on

Court number one. That is the start of the nude retractable roof. We

know Centre Court has a roof and they are doing this in stages, it

will take until 2019 to be able to completely close. There is a bit

that is static over there and it will take a considerable amount of

time. Also, they have put in some extra seat. Demand for tickets at

Wimbledon is so, so high. A great day here, yesterday, the wheeze.

unpredictable Alexander Bublik. -- hip problem and he played. Next he

plays Germany's Dustin Brown in round two.

The way Dustin plays, he comes to the net a lot,

You know, work a bit on my passing shots and lobs and those sorts

of things because they will be quite a different match.

He's unorthadox as well but he plays a bit more from the net than Sasha.

Joining Murray in the second round is Aljaz Bedene.

The British number four came through an epic five setter,

The world number 49 is playing in only his third grand slam.

A much easier day's work for Johanna Konta.

She beat Hsieh Su-Wei in straight sets, avenging her first

round defeat at the French Open to the same opponent.

And Konta will be joined by Heather Watson.

The British number two continued her impressive form,

beating Marina Zanevska of Belgium in straight sets.

Venus Williams, a five-time winner here, is through to

She beat Elise Mertens of Belgium in three sets.

Last month Williams was involved in a car crash which left one man

dead, and was asked about it in her post match press conference.

When you look back at the history and the players that have been

It is a big football club and for me deserves to be back

in the Premier League and that's the reason I'm here.

You might have seen already, we have had some of the biggest gains --

names are tennis player are BBC Breakfast game Game Set Mug. We have

had Andy Murray. But see how Johanna Konta got along.

Morning, everybody, I am delighted to say we are joined Frau BBC

breakfast Mug challenge bit British and other one Johanna Konta. You

have chat face some challenges in your time. Have you faced anything

like this? -- faced some challenges. Game Set Mug. You have 30 seconds. I

need every single second. Do you know what your technique will be? I

will approach it with as much control as possible. On the arm. I

will time you for 30 seconds on my phone. Are you ready? You are

halfway through, keep going, keep going. Speed, more speed, faster, go

as fast as you can. Just keep trying for subs you have five seconds flat.

Johanna Konta you have five, four, three, two, one! Yet! You got it in.

Let's have a look at. You ready? Let's not look. 15! No. -48. Two.

Banks were being such a great sport. -- thanks for being. It's really

quite difficult. Surely have a quick look at our leaderboard so far?

Let's see how our tennis players are doing. Andy Murray is way out in

front. He got 14. Johanna Konta got to. --2. We are hugely grateful for

everybody who is taking part. It is another day at Wimbledon and on

Court number three, a really special match today. I'm delighted to say I

am joined by Sue Terry. You are Alex Ward's mum. He is playing against

Kyle Edmund today. It's a big day for Alex because I guess this is

what he has been working for four years. Huge. Well, since he was 16

and made the decision he wanted to go to Spain to train and get as good

as he could tennis. Compete at this level. How did he get here? He

played qualifying. P plate free wallah flying -- he played pre-

qualifying. He lost in the tie-break in the third set. He got in as a

wildcard into the proper qualifying and then he won three matches and

each day I went home and tried to see if he had got through. Maybe

tomorrow... We were just, you know, hoping. He went and did it on the

Friday, I just can't believe it. I've been at sixes and sevens since,

I tell you. And other reason why. I hope you don't mind me telling

everybody, your son Alex is playing here at Wimbledon on Sue's 60th

birthday. How is that for a birthday present? It is the best birthday

present ever. I text that to him when I found out. It's just, it's

the icing on the cake, in fact. I have not given to birthday a short

since Friday apart from my colleagues at work surprised me with

loads of gifts but apart from that, I really haven't thought about it.

How marvellous that Ashley book the first three days of Wimbledon, like

I do every year, say I can watch everybody, I loved the start of it.

--I actually booked. At the back of my mind I think, maybe at Alex is

there, I will be able to go along. Surely, as a mother of a player,

what specials do you get? Digg it to sit in a box? If it is a show court,

yes but otherwise, no. -- do you get to sit in a box. Sue! If you could

just get me a ground ticket it's just all part of the experience,

isn't it? Alex is dropping well down the 800s, it has to be said. He is

playing Kyle Edwards and we wish you a happy birthday. We hope you have

wonderful day. Thank you much, thank you. I don't know few have noticed,

I have throat. Carol, is the pollen level height? -- high. Yes. For the

rest of the UK, it is a low or moderate. I am on Court number one

as well and you can see how beautiful it is looking. Ricky is

out with his electric lawnmower. It is not as noisy as it has been in

previous years at the sun is beating down. Temperatures around 15 at the

moment. The forecast Wilbert and today is largely dry. -- the

forecast for Wimbledon. There is only a 10% risk of a shower.

Yesterday, it was 20% and we did catch one, we were unlucky. You will

find the cloud will break throughout the afternoon and you will see sunny

spells with intentionally up to 25. For all of us up to the next you

days, it will turn warmer and for some, hot. Across southern England,

there is some sunshine around but also as a bit of clout. We are also

looking at one or two showers here or there they are well scattered --

cloud. We have more persistent rain over the north and that extends into

central and southern Scotland. Dry out in central Scotland. The

Northern Ireland, you are under the same band of rain for northern

England so heavy and persistent. Lots of surface spray on the roads

this morning from stop the Wales and south-west England, some bright

spells and sunshine. That extends eastwards as we head across Dorset

into Hampshire and in towards Buckinghamshire as well. As we head

on through the course of the day, the heavy, persistent rain remains

on and off throughout the day. The cloud will break up later and we

will see sunshine but there is the risk of one of two showers across

the Midlands and East Anglia but that will be the exception rather

than the rule. The highs in the south up to 25. If you are under the

band of rain, it will feel cold and if you are further north, even in

the sunshine, highs of around the mid-teens so no heatwaves either but

pleasant enough. Through this evening and overnight, the weather

front producing the rain will tend to weaken. What will happen is we

will have patchy light rain and drizzle with coastal fog and hill

fog. Either side of that, some clear skies. In rural areas, the

temperatures will be lower than the temperatures you see on screen which

represents towns and cities. Tomorrow, we start off with the

weather front ensconced across southern Ireland and northern

England -- Northern Ireland, southern Scotland. It will be a dry

day and a sunny one. And a warm one. Temperatures in the north into low

meet 20s. England and Wales, into the high 20s. -- low, mid 20s. It

will hit 30 Celsius and humid near London. Thursday's forecast is

tricky, we are importing hot air from front and that will trigger

thunderstorms. We won't all see one, there will be lengthy spells but if

you catch one, across England, southern Scotland or Wales, it could

be a humdinger with torrential rain coming out of it. The Scotland and

Northern Ireland, given half the sunshine but it will feel much more

pleasant and less oppressive. We will carry on with high temperatures

for the rest of the week. We watch out for the Hunting Act,

thank you very much for that. Thank you very much, we shall see you

later -- humdinger. You can watch live coverage

of Wimbledon from 1:45pm on BBC One, and hear commentary from 11:30am

on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Radio 5 You can also watch all the coverage

from 15 courts across Connected TV, The sandwich chain Subway

is planning to open 500 new stores Good morning to you. We are talking

about Subway. When it comes to the number

of shops, it is bigger than McDonald's, but it is

getting even bigger. The firm has wants to open 500

new stores over the next three years, creating

about 5,000 new jobs. So is it a vote in our high streets,

and what does it tell us Peter Dowding is Subway's boss

in the UK Ireland. Nice to see you. Good morning. I

said a vote of confidence in our high streets but you are all over

the place, in all sorts of different locations. You are clearly confident

we will have money in our pocket to spend on these things, it is, what,

a fiver for a sandwich? Is actually less than that, and we are looking

at the entire market of England and Northern Ireland, we have stores in

convenience stores, forecourts, and 60% of our stores are on the high

street, where consumers want to see us. We are told that wages are not

keeping up with inflation and prices are rising on most things at the

moment. It means we have less money in our pockets to spend a nice

things, a sandwich, rather than making it at home. Do you think we

will have that money in our pocket? Yes, we offer an incredibly

affordable, fresh, nutritional Sam Mitchell or salad. If you have one

of our six inch subs, you will get one of your government recommended

five a day, if you have one of our salads, you will get two of your

recommended five a day. So you have done your plug, but let's talk about

the minimum wage. In the last hour we were speaking to the Resolution

Foundation, saying self-employed people need to be on the minimum

wage. How do you keep an eye on what your staff working and being I know

you have zero hours contracts, even though as you say they are

franchises. How do you make sure they are enforced properly? We have

contract in place with all our franchisees, and they are required

to meet the laws of the land, and that includes appropriate salaries.

Not when we talk about our expansion, there is a whole

infrastructure behind that that we need to support the business,

including the purchasing IPC, which is based in high Wycombe, a company

owned by the franchisees, we have 20 regional offices around the country,

so we have a massive support network as well. How important is that

flexibility when it comes to the workforce? There is no guarantee for

workers and it is not a great way to be working, but it allows you to be

flexible and allows staff to be flexible. That must be important. It

is incredibly important to our franchisees, and it needs to be

right for the franchisee and also for the employee, and we have a lot

of situations where that model does work. But ultimately our stores need

to be open, I think we open at 7am and we close at 10pm, and we need to

staff those stores. So zero our contracts don't always work for our

franchisees, but it does in some instances -- zero-hour contracts. I

know what of your franchisees was named and shamed for not paying the

minimum wage, and you had to sort that out. The bigger you get, it is

hard to keep an eye on the whole business, how do you make that work?

Well, we have 20 offices around the country, a great support network, as

the centre of economic and business research recognised in the report

they did, and we have field staff which visit the stores on a weekly

and monthly basis and support the franchisees. That is how I see my

job, supporting over 900 individual business entrepreneurs across the

country in developing their businesses. Let's talk about

healthier eating, and you talk about some of the recommended daily

allowances, but let's talk about what it means about a change in

habits, because more of us are now looking for a healthier option when

we are on the move, and that is a big part of your policy at the

moment, is trying to cut sugar as well. Yes, it is. People are very

concerned about not only what they are putting in their bodies but also

where the food is coming from. So the consumer is incredibly informed,

and one of the things that we have done recently in conjunction with

NHS England is we have moved all our sugar drinks from hospitals, for

example, our 12 hospital sites. And nutritional value is very important

when we look at new product development. And moving forward, we

are looking at everything we do, that we bring to the market, which

is going to sit within those 2020 guidelines. Before we go, favourite

sandwich? IMacs are going to change, because I am loving the salads at

the moment, two of my five a day. So the sandwich chain boss is not

having a sandwich? No, I'm having a salad. Very insightful, thank you

very much. Some of the world's brightest minds

are gathering in London today to showcase the best of British

scientific achievement. They're down at the annual

Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition, which opens

to the public later this morning. Breakfasts Tim Muffett's

there for us now. I think you are talking about DNA

folding, is that right? You have got it, how did you know that? Very

impressive. A team from the University of Oxford using virtual

reality to see whether and how it is possible to fold DNA. One of the

many exhibits at the Royal Society summer science exhibition. Let's

have a quick chat. What have you been doing? We have been detecting

gravitational waves from colliding black holes. We can turn the pattern

that we detect into this sound. What is that? That is the sound of rebels

in space-time predicted 100 years ago by Einstein, only detected for

the first time in 2015. Can we hear that one more time? Well, amazing,

short but sweet. It have a walk down here and chat to Russell Foster, a

fellow of the Royal Society. This is really historical, isn't it? What

are the origins of the society? They go back to the 16 60s, and our

message is really to promote science at every level and take nothing for

granted. Evidence -based science, this is the origins of the modern

scientific method, and it was really developed by the Fellowship at the

time. In the summer science exhibition is essentially allowing

scientists to get together, but also getting that information out to the

broader public. And really we want people to come here. Tonight, for

example, we don't close until 9pm, we are open until 6pm at the

weekend, so please come and see this extraordinary science going on here.

Thank you very much indeed, let's have a look at this extraordinary

science. What are you doing here? We are demonstrating one of the

techniques which is part of the NPL grand challenge, a surgical

technique for detecting cancer. So this allows people to detect

cancerous tissue as opposed to other tissue. Yes, allowing better

outcomes for surgery, so we have a laparoscopy tool here, demonstrating

what surgery is like for people. And you are from the National physical

laboratory. Why is this important? So we are developing a Google Earth

Lake view of the tumour, so we can map from the organ scale, right down

to an individual sell, so we can make better diagnosis and treatment.

This is part of the Cancer Research UK grand challenge ambition, so that

three out of every five people will survive cancer in the future. We

heard calls for there to be a national gene are mapping project,

what do you make of that? I think this is absolutely right, because

the genetics are key to how cancer works. And this is all about making

sure that the therapies and diagnosis are much, much better in

the future. Before we go, have a look at this team from Cardiff

University, who are investigating renewable energy. How is it going?

It is going very well. We are generating some hydrogen, and when

we flicked the switch as we can actually power these cars. And the

blue is in front! I remember very well when we powered them with our

minds! You are very effective, mine did not move a muscle.

We have a question for you. The question is what if women ruled the

world. The reason we are asking is because there is a new play, and it

is posing that question. Five women in a war room trying to sort out the

problems of society, and that is their question. Loads of suggestions

coming in, many of them we can't read out, for obvious reasons. You

ask these questions, and you get some not so serious answers.

Everything would be organised, says Hanna, if a little tense, with a

definite emphasis on the sector and strawberries around Wimbledon. If

there was a quality or the world was run by women, why would it be

impossible to imagine, I don't believe we would be in the same mess
