:00:07. > :00:11.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:00:12. > :00:12.More frustration at a lack of information

:00:13. > :00:18.After an angry meeting last night with the police,

:00:19. > :00:23.residents say their questions still aren't being answered.

:00:24. > :00:28.Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is. Do not hide

:00:29. > :00:31.anything. The majority of survivors remain

:00:32. > :00:34.in hotels despite today's deadline The council insists all families

:00:35. > :00:38.have been made an offer. All the memories I had, all my baby

:00:39. > :00:56.album is, I miss them a lot. Good morning, it's

:00:57. > :01:00.Wednesday July 5th. Victims of stalking and harassment

:01:01. > :01:05.are being left at risk, because of failings

:01:06. > :01:13.by police and prosecutors. A new report blames poor

:01:14. > :01:16.investigations and a lack An average debt of more than ?50,000

:01:17. > :01:22.for university students in England. A new report says they'll be paying

:01:23. > :01:26.it off into their 50s. It's ten years to the day

:01:27. > :01:29.since the cost of borrowing They've been at record lows

:01:30. > :01:34.since then, but why and what does it mean for borrowers,

:01:35. > :01:49.savers and the economy? I am inside and Sally is in the Q.

:01:50. > :01:53.It should stay dry here. Across the central swathe we have cloud and

:01:54. > :01:55.drizzle. For most of us it will be sunny and warm, or hot! More later

:01:56. > :01:57.in the programme. Survivors of the Grenfell Tower

:01:58. > :02:04.disaster have expressed their frustration with a lack

:02:05. > :02:07.of information during a meeting last night with the police

:02:08. > :02:10.and the Westminster Coroner. A senior officer faced questions

:02:11. > :02:13.as to why no arrests had been made, while the coroner is said

:02:14. > :02:16.to have described the scene inside the building

:02:17. > :02:21.as "apocalyptic". Despite today's deadline set

:02:22. > :02:23.by the Prime Minister, for everybody affected to be

:02:24. > :02:25.found a home nearby, the majority of survivors remain

:02:26. > :02:32.in hotels, as Nick Quraishi reports. This was the first opportunity

:02:33. > :02:36.for families to put their questions directly to police and

:02:37. > :02:38.the Westminster coroner. One reason this private meeting

:02:39. > :02:45.lasted more than 3.5 hours. It's understood relatives were told

:02:46. > :02:48.in graphic detail the challenge that forensic teams are facing

:02:49. > :02:51.in even trying to find DNA They say the information

:02:52. > :02:55.they are getting isn't good enough. We personally asked,

:02:56. > :02:58.where is our family? We want to know, is our families'

:02:59. > :03:01.bodies still there? Whatever it is, we want to know

:03:02. > :03:05.exactly what it is, And the answers that

:03:06. > :03:09.were coming back were, "We don't know, we don't

:03:10. > :03:12.know, we don't know." Today is the deadline

:03:13. > :03:15.set by Theresa May to rehouse the 158 families made

:03:16. > :03:19.homeless by the disaster. According to the Grenfell response

:03:20. > :03:22.team, that target has been met, with 139 formal offers made,

:03:23. > :03:28.but just nine have been accepted. Lawyers for survivors say most

:03:29. > :03:31.of the accommodation is Three weeks after the tragedy,

:03:32. > :03:37.police still maintain their investigation will be

:03:38. > :03:39.exhaustive and will bring the answers that the families

:03:40. > :03:41.desperately deserve, We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman

:03:42. > :03:58.of the Grenfell Fire Response Team We will try to get to the bottom of

:03:59. > :04:00.some of those questions, as to why people aren't accepting the offers

:04:01. > :04:00.of accommodation. Victims of harassment and stalking

:04:01. > :04:03.in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:04:04. > :04:06.by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:04:07. > :04:10.weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:04:11. > :04:24.and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:04:25. > :04:29.and concluded that none had been dealt with well. Officers and

:04:30. > :04:35.prosecutors were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very

:04:36. > :04:41.nature both stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really

:04:42. > :04:46.pernicious and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors were

:04:47. > :04:47.missing that, which meant that victims were left at risk.

:04:48. > :04:51.The United States has confirmed that a weapon fired into the Sea of Japan

:04:52. > :04:53.by North Korea was an intercontinental ballistic missile.

:04:54. > :04:56.In response, the US and South Korea carried out

:04:57. > :05:05.China meanwhile has called on its ally North Korea

:05:06. > :05:09.For the latest, let's speak to our Beijing correspondent Stephen

:05:10. > :05:22.How significant a step forward is this by North Korea? I think it's a

:05:23. > :05:31.pretty significant step. You remember that Donald Trump tweeted

:05:32. > :05:34.back in January that "It won't happen", that North Korea would get

:05:35. > :05:39.missiles capable of hitting the US. It still hasn't got them, what it

:05:40. > :05:50.now has missiles that can reach the US. Other bits of the ICB aren't

:05:51. > :05:53.there. -- ICBM. So a big step forward towards what seemed like a

:05:54. > :05:58.red line for President Trump. What is now happening here today is that

:05:59. > :06:01.the military, the South Korean military and the US military, is

:06:02. > :06:05.sending pretty strong messages to North Korea. The two military

:06:06. > :06:14.leaders say the difference between peace and war is self restraint.

:06:15. > :06:18.That's a choice we make, we can make a different choice. So were pretty

:06:19. > :06:23.direct threat to North Korea. The US and South Korean military have let

:06:24. > :06:29.off live missiles to show what kind of power -- firepower they've got.

:06:30. > :06:34.So it's a matter of a much more dangerous situation. Not quite there

:06:35. > :06:38.yet, where Mr Trump has to say, right, that's it, now it really is

:06:39. > :06:45.the military option, but it's getting away. We will be speaking

:06:46. > :06:47.more about that later in the programme. We will have a special

:06:48. > :06:50.guest at about 6:40am. Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign

:06:51. > :06:52.promoter of Islamist extremism in the UK, according

:06:53. > :06:55.to a foreign policy think tank. The Henry Jackson Society accuses

:06:56. > :07:00.Saudi individuals and foundations of exporting "an illiberal,

:07:01. > :07:02.bigoted ideology" and calls for the UK government's secret

:07:03. > :07:04.report into extremism The Saudi embassy in London has

:07:05. > :07:08.called the allegations Police repeatedly failed a disabled

:07:09. > :07:17.refugee who sought their help before being murdered in Bristol four years

:07:18. > :07:20.ago, according to a report by the Independent Police

:07:21. > :07:22.Complaints Commission. Bijan Ebrahimi made dozens of calls

:07:23. > :07:25.to police, mainly to report racial abuse, criminal damage

:07:26. > :07:27.and threats to kill. He was eventually beaten to death

:07:28. > :07:30.by a neighbour who wrongly believed Avon and Somerset police say

:07:31. > :07:34.they have made changes and has He told police dozens of times

:07:35. > :07:47.that his life was in danger. What part of 'be quiet'

:07:48. > :07:52.do you not understand? Now a report says that over several

:07:53. > :07:57.years, the Iranian refugee was repeatedly failed by Avon

:07:58. > :07:59.and Somerset police, treated as a nuisance,

:08:00. > :08:04.not as a victim. In 2013, he was beaten to death

:08:05. > :08:08.by a neighbour outside his flat The Independent Police

:08:09. > :08:14.Complaints Commission says there were systematic failures

:08:15. > :08:19.in the way he was dealt with. Today's report runs to hundreds

:08:20. > :08:23.of pages and it says this whole case has laid bare what it

:08:24. > :08:25.calls the disrespect, the prejudice and even contempt

:08:26. > :08:28.with which some officers and staff treated Bijan Ebrahimi in the days

:08:29. > :08:33.before he was murdered here. Reading that report and just coming

:08:34. > :08:37.to terms with what happened He always thought that he is in

:08:38. > :08:44.a country that police And he couldn't see

:08:45. > :08:52.anything beyond that. Last year, PC Kevin Duffy

:08:53. > :08:55.and community support officer Andrew Passmore were jailed

:08:56. > :08:57.after being convicted of misconduct PC's Leanne Winter and Helen Harris

:08:58. > :09:03.were cleared by the jury but were later sacked

:09:04. > :09:08.by a misconduct hearing. We accept that we failed

:09:09. > :09:11.Bijan Ebrahimi at his time of greatest need and throughout that

:09:12. > :09:14.time, he was respectful and he had confidence and trust

:09:15. > :09:17.in us, the police. And we let him down

:09:18. > :09:23.and for that, we are sorry. Avon and Somerset police say

:09:24. > :09:26.they have improved the way that they deal with vulnerable

:09:27. > :09:29.people as a result of this case. Bijan's sisters are still waiting

:09:30. > :09:42.for the local council's report. We will pick up some of those

:09:43. > :09:42.thoughts on the peace later -- piece later.

:09:43. > :09:45.The average student debt for graduates in England is set

:09:46. > :09:47.to rise to over ?50,000, according to new research

:09:48. > :09:49.by the Insititute for Fiscal Studies.

:09:50. > :09:56.Pretty stark research. They also point out that many students will be

:09:57. > :10:01.pained that debt into their 50s, so not able to shake off the debt from

:10:02. > :10:06.their student days for a very long time. That's because the interest

:10:07. > :10:10.rates are very high, about 6.1%. If you compare that to the base rate at

:10:11. > :10:14.the Bank of England, it is just a quarter of 1%, so a huge disparity.

:10:15. > :10:19.They suggest students are being asked to pay too much on the money

:10:20. > :10:22.they borrow. They've also looked at figures specifically. If over the

:10:23. > :10:28.course of your degree you borrow about ?45,000, you will pay nearly

:10:29. > :10:32.?51,000 back once you add in all of the interest. That's why people will

:10:33. > :10:36.be paying it back for so long. Of course there is a threshold where

:10:37. > :10:39.the payment kicks in. You have to work 21,000 powers if a job you hope

:10:40. > :10:44.to get when you leave university before you pay that back -- ?21,000.

:10:45. > :10:48.They've made it clear that threshold hasn't changed, so people have to

:10:49. > :10:52.pay more earlier, because that hasn't risen in line with inflation.

:10:53. > :10:58.The universities have benefited from this money. They have increased how

:10:59. > :11:02.much they spend on students by about 25% since these changes were brought

:11:03. > :11:06.in, but nonetheless the burden for students is very much still there, a

:11:07. > :11:10.off debt into their 50s, with a pretty massive interest rate on what

:11:11. > :11:14.they borrow. I worked as a labourer when I was a student to try to get

:11:15. > :11:21.the debt down. A good summer job! What did you do? Carry bricks? Built

:11:22. > :11:29.patios, dug holes. Useful skills. I was a waitress.

:11:30. > :11:31.The rationing of NHS treatments such as hip,

:11:32. > :11:33.knee and cataract operations, as well as mental health services,

:11:34. > :11:36.has increased significantly in England over the past four years

:11:37. > :11:39.according to a study published in the British Medical Journal.

:11:40. > :11:41.Growing financial pressure and increased demand for services

:11:42. > :11:44.has led some areas to withdraw funding for some procedures,

:11:45. > :11:49.leading to what doctors describe as a growing postcode lottery.

:11:50. > :11:53.It's the food that kept troops alive in the Second World War and then

:11:54. > :11:59.was fed to unwilling school children in the post-war years.

:12:00. > :12:05.And let's face it, it's still the tinned meat lots of us

:12:06. > :12:12.Some people obviously love it, with eight billion cans of the stuff

:12:13. > :12:15.being sold, and believe it or not it's a delicacy in some parts

:12:16. > :12:22.It was even immortalised in a Monty Python sketch.

:12:23. > :12:35.Anything without Spam in it? We've got Spam sausages. I do want any!

:12:36. > :12:41.Why can't we have spam and egg sausages? Can I have eggs, bacon,

:12:42. > :12:48.spam and sausage without the spam? I don't like spam! Spam, spam, spam,

:12:49. > :12:58.spamity spam! It was so funny. Are we going to

:12:59. > :13:01.tuck into this later? We are going to be cracking into

:13:02. > :13:05.this later. Quite a few people already sending in their spam

:13:06. > :13:12.recipes. Paul says he is fishing with it today.

:13:13. > :13:16.And what I love about it is as far as I can remember it hasn't changed.

:13:17. > :13:22.The shape, the colouring, everything still looks the same.

:13:23. > :13:29.Very dangerous to open it. They have changed the lead.

:13:30. > :13:33.Far safer these days. Spam and chips used to be a regular

:13:34. > :13:38.Thursday night meal in my house. Nothing wrong with a bit of Spam.

:13:39. > :13:42.Get in touch with us. Your thoughts on that and anything else on the

:13:43. > :13:48.programme. You can e-mail us, or getting touch on Facebook or

:13:49. > :13:52.Twitter. Carol is at Wimbledon and Sally is outside with those

:13:53. > :13:58.preparing to watch Andy Murray and the rest again! Good morning, Sally.

:13:59. > :14:02.Good morning, both of you. I don't think there's much Spam here. I've

:14:03. > :14:07.looked around. Everybody is starting to wake up. You get woken by the

:14:08. > :14:14.students at 6am. I've spotted some organic yoghurt and granola. There's

:14:15. > :14:20.a chap eating his breakfast over there. Not much Spam, but a very

:14:21. > :14:24.good mood. Everyone feeling rather chirpy. These guys have maybe got a

:14:25. > :14:29.chance of seeing Andy Murray play on centre court, so who could blame

:14:30. > :14:33.them? There are 39,000 people allowed into Wimbledon over the road

:14:34. > :14:38.and these people at some of them, have been queueing for more than 24

:14:39. > :14:43.hours, sleeping in tents and having a fine time! We did set out tennis

:14:44. > :14:49.players a particular challenge on BBC Breakfast. We've been doing the

:14:50. > :14:55.BBC Breakfast mug. I was particularly rubbish. Andy Murray

:14:56. > :15:00.has set the trend so far, managing to get 14 tennis balls into our

:15:01. > :15:06.breakfast mug in the space of 20 seconds. Milos Raonic one in -- won

:15:07. > :15:16.in straight sets yesterday. Lovely to see Hugh. Thanks for

:15:17. > :15:22.taking part in our challenge. You have 30 seconds to get as many balls

:15:23. > :15:27.in as possible. How are the nerves? I've faced bigger challenges but I

:15:28. > :15:31.probably feel more comfortable in them. Let's give it a try, I've got

:15:32. > :15:37.it ready, get a ball in your hand, on your marks, get set, go. Me lost

:15:38. > :15:43.is going for the quick succession approach. Extreme concentration on

:15:44. > :15:49.the face, he is barely blinking, how many balls as he hit so far? I'm not

:15:50. > :15:54.looking that way. Had 12 seconds and so far. At least 20 balls already.

:15:55. > :16:00.Coming up for 20 seconds. He's smiling, he is getting relaxed now,

:16:01. > :16:05.is that better? How many have we got now? 24 seconds, five seconds left.

:16:06. > :16:12.We'll see how many he's got in at the end. We'll do a quick count. The

:16:13. > :16:15.mug is actually quite deep, you may be able to reach it with your

:16:16. > :16:23.extremely long arms. Would you like to count them out? It's not a big

:16:24. > :16:28.challenge to count these out. Four balls. 4-balls in 30 seconds. There

:16:29. > :16:32.were so many you couldn't see really deep under the mug. Did you feel

:16:33. > :16:37.like you acquit yourself well, you happy with that performance? I feel

:16:38. > :16:41.like if I knew about it I would have prepared better. A good point, thank

:16:42. > :16:44.you so much for taking part. No problem, thank you so much.

:16:45. > :16:51.Shall we have a look at the all-important leaderboard? There you

:16:52. > :17:00.can see happily at the very top, Andy Murray, how did he get 14?

:17:01. > :17:05.Milos Raonic, a really good effort. Joe Konta with two. Plenty more of

:17:06. > :17:09.those coming up. It is really difficult. I might get some of these

:17:10. > :17:14.people in the queue to have a go at it later, that could be interesting.

:17:15. > :17:19.Before I go let me show you the back pages because there another big

:17:20. > :17:22.sports story, at the Tour de France yesterday, we have pictures of Mark

:17:23. > :17:28.Cavendish, he was forced to leave the Tour de France after an horrific

:17:29. > :17:33.fall, a terrible crash. Peter Sagan, very famous cyclist, has been banned

:17:34. > :17:37.for this tour, I know he has leave to appeal but Mark Cavendish has a

:17:38. > :17:44.broken shoulder. Back page of the Mirror, a fairly gruesome picture of

:17:45. > :17:49.Mark Cavendish yesterday, he said he is OK, Peter Sagan apologised to the

:17:50. > :17:53.team boss, not sure how that conversation went. A Wimbledon story

:17:54. > :17:57.on the back page of the times, Wimbledon crackdown on gritters

:17:58. > :18:01.after two players yesterday, the opponents of Djokovic and Federer

:18:02. > :18:05.finished early because of injury. Its controversial because for

:18:06. > :18:09.turning up and playing you get something like ?35,000. Both of the

:18:10. > :18:13.players were injured and had to retire. The crowd on centre court

:18:14. > :18:16.were disappointed as they were expecting to fantastic matches and

:18:17. > :18:22.they didn't get them yesterday so much more on that through the

:18:23. > :18:26.programme. On going to stay in the queue and look for some Spam

:18:27. > :18:28.sandwiches but Carol is inside Wimbledon with the weather -- I'm

:18:29. > :18:34.going to stay. It is glorious, the temperature at

:18:35. > :18:39.Wimbledon at the moment is around 17. If I give you a tour around, I'm

:18:40. > :18:43.above Court 18, it fills up quite quickly because if you've got a

:18:44. > :18:48.ground pass you can come in here and you can see the queue is growing for

:18:49. > :18:51.this on a daily basis. Behind it is the broadcast centre where

:18:52. > :18:54.reporters, journalists and presenters from all around the world

:18:55. > :19:00.gather to report on the events taking place at the championships.

:19:01. > :19:04.Did you know it's been 90 years of BBC Radio 4 at the championships and

:19:05. > :19:10.80 years of BBC television? Quite a record! This morning for Wimbledon

:19:11. > :19:14.it's a lovely start, the sun is out, as we go through the day that will

:19:15. > :19:19.continue, if anything it's going to turn hotter and much more due mid.

:19:20. > :19:24.The afternoon maximum, which isn't on this chart, will be around 28, 29

:19:25. > :19:29.or even 30 in light winds -- more humid. There that in mind if you're

:19:30. > :19:34.coming down. For the next few days the forecast for all of us will be

:19:35. > :19:40.hot and humid -- there that in mind. Or even warm depending on where you

:19:41. > :19:45.are. If we look around the country, blue skies in the south, already

:19:46. > :19:50.very pleasantly warm but as we go north there's a bit more cloud,

:19:51. > :19:54.yesterday's weather front, a decaying feature, but producing a

:19:55. > :19:57.fair bit of cloud and drizzle, some coastal hill fog as well and some of

:19:58. > :20:02.that could get into southern Scotland. In Northern Scotland, a

:20:03. > :20:07.dry and sunny start and a chilly one. In Northern Ireland, a fine

:20:08. > :20:10.start, as it is in Wales, north Wales seeing more cloud and in

:20:11. > :20:18.south-west England, a fine start. The outside chance of a shower but

:20:19. > :20:21.unlucky if you get one, and in southern counties back into the warm

:20:22. > :20:25.sunshine. Through today what you will find is we will start to lose

:20:26. > :20:29.that cloud, especially from north-west England and south-west

:20:30. > :20:35.Scotland. We will hang onto it more across the Northeast and that will

:20:36. > :20:40.peg back the temperatures, feeling cooler in the north, around 14-17,

:20:41. > :20:43.hot and humid further south. Anywhere from Bristol,

:20:44. > :20:48.Gloucestershire, London, high 20s, possibly hitting 30 and 30 is more

:20:49. > :20:52.likely in the south-east. Through the evening and overnight we import

:20:53. > :20:56.thunderstorms overnight, coming up through the English Channel and

:21:00. > :21:03.Northern Ireland and western Scotland introducing some rain.

:21:04. > :21:08.Temperature wise tonight, we're looking at lows of about ten to 18

:21:09. > :21:13.Celsius. Tomorrow the thunderstorms will continue to drift north through

:21:14. > :21:16.the day, some of those will be heavy and thundery, torrential downpours.

:21:17. > :21:20.If you get one you will know about it and some big hail embedded in

:21:21. > :21:26.them, some will miss them all together and get some sunshine and

:21:27. > :21:29.the rain in the north-west will hit Northern Ireland, Northern Scotland

:21:30. > :21:32.and the England and the next band arrives in western Scotland

:21:33. > :21:37.tomorrow. Hot and humid in the south. On Friday, a dry day for most

:21:38. > :21:42.of us, showers in north-east England, a weather front waiting in

:21:43. > :21:45.the winds later for Northern Ireland but a lot of sunshine and

:21:46. > :21:52.temperatures still on the muggy side in the south with 28, 29 or 30. In

:21:53. > :21:53.the north, things will be a bit fresher, more comfortable but

:21:54. > :22:01.certainly by no means cold. It's really turned out nice for

:22:02. > :22:05.Wimbledon. Thanks very much, Carol, we will see you later. Every morning

:22:06. > :22:07.we have been there this week it has been lovely! Plenty more from

:22:08. > :22:08.Wimbledon through the morning. You're watching

:22:09. > :22:10.Breakfast from BBC News. The main stories this morning:

:22:11. > :22:12.Grenfell Tower survivors have expressed their frustration

:22:13. > :22:14.at the authorities, saying questions still aren't being answered

:22:15. > :22:17.and no-one has been arrested. North Korea is warned by the USA

:22:18. > :22:21.and South Korea that war can't be intercontinental ballistic missile

:22:22. > :22:35.test. Let's return to the main story this

:22:36. > :22:38.morning. It was one of the key promises

:22:39. > :22:41.from Theresa May in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy,

:22:42. > :22:44.that all survivors would be rehoused Despite that pledge,

:22:45. > :22:48.only nine offers have been accepted and many

:22:49. > :22:50.families are still living in hotels. So, three weeks after that

:22:51. > :22:53.devastating fire, why are so many people still not living

:22:54. > :22:56.in a place they can call home? Frankie McCamley went to meet one

:22:57. > :23:14.man and his 10-year-old daughter You feel better? Yes.

:23:15. > :23:18.This man and his daughter and his wife lived on the 15th floor of

:23:19. > :23:24.Grenfell Tower. They've now been living in a hotel for three weeks.

:23:25. > :23:31.It's not comfortable and it doesn't feel like home. I miss my room and

:23:32. > :23:39.all the memories I had, my baby albums, I miss them a lot. My

:23:40. > :23:48.daughter... She's losing her focus because this isn't her place, not

:23:49. > :23:54.her room, not her life. I find it hard to sleep, I have nightmares

:23:55. > :24:04.about if it happens again, if I wake up and I see fire in the building. I

:24:05. > :24:11.feel like useless. I feel I have no power to take away all this pain

:24:12. > :24:16.from her. If I could, I would, I would take all the pain and put it

:24:17. > :24:20.on me. The families say they have received calls of support from local

:24:21. > :24:27.services but what they really want is for someone to visit them. The

:24:28. > :24:39.people in my building, they were very close to me and they were like

:24:40. > :24:48.family and seeing them go wasn't good. Be brave, you're so brave. As

:24:49. > :24:52.the family struggle to come to terms with what happened, they say they

:24:53. > :24:57.have been offered a two bedroom flat just over a mile away, but Sid-Ali

:24:58. > :25:03.says it's too far from Hayam's school and it's not big enough. They

:25:04. > :25:13.need to see us as a victim and treat us with dignity, not anything else.

:25:14. > :25:18.This is so frustrating. It's very bad, it's very bad. Three weeks they

:25:19. > :25:25.haven't found a solution. The council says it's made 139 offers of

:25:26. > :25:28.accommodation to Grenfell Tower residents, nine of which have been

:25:29. > :25:32.accepted. It says the three-week target of offering temporary homes

:25:33. > :25:35.to those affected has been met, but for this family the money and

:25:36. > :25:41.support they've been offered has simply not been good enough. Their

:25:42. > :25:49.putting a price on us, they give ?5,000 each and ?500, is that the

:25:50. > :25:58.value of lives? I want this to finish. That's what I need, my

:25:59. > :26:02.dignity. Have you got any faith in their services any more? No, I have

:26:03. > :26:07.faith in the residence, I have faith in the community, I have faith in

:26:08. > :26:09.the people who live their lives... My faith is there, my faith is

:26:10. > :26:11.there. That gives you a clear idea of how

:26:12. > :26:14.people are feeling. Just after 7am this morning we'll be

:26:15. > :26:24.speaking to spokeswoman We will put some of those thoughts

:26:25. > :26:28.from that father to her, especially being treated like numbers, not

:26:29. > :26:32.names, about not being treated with dignity. We will talk about all

:26:33. > :26:36.those issues later. In about ten minutes we will have

:26:37. > :26:40.more information on the escalating tensions in North Korea and the

:26:41. > :30:02.latest missile test and also we will be back at Wimbledon for all the

:30:03. > :30:13.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:30:14. > :30:17.We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment.

:30:18. > :30:25.Think of Snapchat and you probably think of these,

:30:26. > :30:32.We'll look at how a new feature causing concern

:30:33. > :30:38.Last year, Milos Raonic couldn't match Andy Murray's record

:30:39. > :30:42.in our Game Set Mug challenge, so how will tennis fans

:30:43. > :30:52.We'll go live, with the mug, to find out later.

:30:53. > :30:56.And we'll be finding out how it feels to be pregnant in one

:30:57. > :30:59.of the remotest parts of the UK, where the nearest hospital

:31:00. > :31:04.But now a summary of this morning's main news.

:31:05. > :31:07.Survivors of the Grenfell Tower disaster have expressed

:31:08. > :31:10.their frustration with a lack of information during a meeting last

:31:11. > :31:17.night with the police and the Westminster Coroner.

:31:18. > :31:20.A senior officer was asked why there hadn't been any arrests.

:31:21. > :31:22.The coroner reportedly described the scene

:31:23. > :31:23.inside the building as "apocalyptic".

:31:24. > :31:26.The majority of survivors remain in hotels, despite today's deadline

:31:27. > :31:29.set by the Prime Minister for everybody affected to be found

:31:30. > :31:33.We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman of the Grenfell Fire Response Team

:31:34. > :31:45.We will put forward some of those questions, which we have been

:31:46. > :31:48.hearing from any family members and those who survived. Those questions

:31:49. > :31:51.in about 40 minutes. Victims of harassment and stalking

:31:52. > :31:55.in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:31:56. > :31:57.by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:31:58. > :32:01.weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:32:02. > :32:03.and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:32:04. > :32:07.and concluded that none had been Officers and prosecutors

:32:08. > :32:15.were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very nature both

:32:16. > :32:18.stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really pernicious

:32:19. > :32:20.and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors

:32:21. > :32:23.were missing that, which meant that The US and South Korea have jointly

:32:24. > :32:42.warned North Korea that war can't be ruled out, following Pyongyang's

:32:43. > :32:44.intercontinental ballistic missile The two countries' most senior

:32:45. > :32:51.officers based in South Korea said self restraint was a choice,

:32:52. > :32:54.which could change at any time. North Korea has quoted its leader

:32:55. > :32:57.Kim Jong-un taunting the US, calling its missile test

:32:58. > :32:59.a gift to the Americans Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign

:33:00. > :33:05.promoter of Islamist extremism in the UK, according

:33:06. > :33:08.to a foreign policy think tank. The Henry Jackson Society accuses

:33:09. > :33:11.Saudi individuals and foundations of exporting "an illiberal,

:33:12. > :33:13.bigoted ideology" and calls for the UK government's secret

:33:14. > :33:15.report into extremism The Saudi embassy in London has

:33:16. > :33:24.called the allegations Students starting their studies

:33:25. > :33:32.in England this September can expect to graduate with average debts

:33:33. > :33:35.of more than ?50,000. That's according to a report

:33:36. > :33:38.by the Institute for Fiscal Studies, which also indicates that students

:33:39. > :33:40.from the poorest backgrounds will leave university

:33:41. > :33:42.with the highest debts. The study's authors described

:33:43. > :33:44.the new 6.1% interest rates The Department of Education

:33:45. > :33:56.declined to comment. The rationing of NHS

:33:57. > :33:58.treatments such as hip, knee and cataract operations,

:33:59. > :34:01.as well as mental health services, has increased significantly

:34:02. > :34:04.in England over the past four years according to a study published

:34:05. > :34:08.in the British Medical Journal. Growing financial pressure

:34:09. > :34:10.and increased demand for services has led some areas to withdraw

:34:11. > :34:13.funding for some procedures, leading to what doctors describe

:34:14. > :34:23.as a growing postcode lottery. It was party time in the USA

:34:24. > :34:26.yesterday, as America celebrated Lots of firework displays,

:34:27. > :34:31.flags and the annual hot-dog eating That fellow is the defending

:34:32. > :34:42.champion, Joey Chestnut, who won his tenth

:34:43. > :34:57.title by downing 72 That's disgusting.

:34:58. > :35:04.That's not just the meat, it is the bread as well. You would not want to

:35:05. > :35:10.travel back with him after that. You're appalled by that!

:35:11. > :35:17.I am. Sally is at Wimbledon today and has lots of challenges for

:35:18. > :35:23.people in the queue as well. Here is the mug. We are going to

:35:24. > :35:28.make people here play Game, Set Mug. We haven't warned them just how

:35:29. > :35:33.tough it is. I don't know about you two, what if you were offered

:35:34. > :35:36.?35,000 to walk onto a tennis court, hit a few balls with Novak Djokovic

:35:37. > :35:42.or Federer, would you do it? Yes!

:35:43. > :35:45.Of course you would! Well, disappointing if you were a fan on

:35:46. > :35:49.centre court yesterday because that's what happened. A couple of

:35:50. > :35:55.players played yesterday, but they got cut short. We've got Andy Murray

:35:56. > :36:00.to look forward to today. He is playing Dustin Brown, from Germany.

:36:01. > :36:04.But those gains were cut short. Novak Djokovic and Federer have

:36:05. > :36:09.spoken out, saying perhaps it is time to change the rules. One player

:36:10. > :36:13.lasted only 40 minutes against Novak Djokovic before his injury proved

:36:14. > :36:21.too much. So a real disappointment for centre crowd. Another player was

:36:22. > :36:24.forced off with an ankle injury. Federer and Novak Djokovic said they

:36:25. > :36:26.could go back out together and play a practice that, because they had so

:36:27. > :36:31.little time on the grass court. There was more controversy

:36:32. > :36:34.after Australian Bernard Tomic said he was "bored" during his

:36:35. > :36:36.straight-sets defeat to Mischa He also admitted to using a medical

:36:37. > :36:40.time-out to try to slow down the match, which could

:36:41. > :36:43.earn him a fine. After going out in the first

:36:44. > :36:47.round for four years in a row, Kyle Edmund finally made it

:36:48. > :36:51.through to round two when he beat his fellow

:36:52. > :36:56.Brit Alex Ward. He is on the programme with us here

:36:57. > :37:00.later. And women's world number one

:37:01. > :37:02.Angelique Kerber is through, after beating American

:37:03. > :37:04.qualifier Irina Falconi. Kerber was runner up last year

:37:05. > :37:09.to Serena Williams. Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de

:37:10. > :37:13.France after a crash at the end World champion Peter Sagan

:37:14. > :37:16.was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:37:17. > :37:19.appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:37:20. > :37:23.and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one

:37:24. > :37:25.of the worst defeats Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:37:26. > :37:29.at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:37:30. > :37:37.team from Luxembourg and they lost

:37:38. > :37:39.2-0 on the night, Billy Monger, the teenage racing

:37:40. > :37:43.driver involved in a crash earlier this year which saw him

:37:44. > :37:47.lose his legs, has driven a hand It was the first time he'd driven

:37:48. > :37:52.since the accident 11 weeks ago. An online campaign went viral,

:37:53. > :38:06.raising almost ?1 million Right now we have two volunteers.

:38:07. > :38:11.Good morning! You haven't had any chance to practise? Let me ask, how

:38:12. > :38:17.long have you been in miscue? We got here at about 2:30 yesterday

:38:18. > :38:23.afternoon. So you've had a night in the tent, how did that go? Not much

:38:24. > :38:27.sleep, but the atmosphere is amazing, so we don't feel too tired

:38:28. > :38:34.this morning. Are you sure? Yes, ready to go! Here is a tennis

:38:35. > :38:38.racquet each, these are the tennis balls. You are precise distance away

:38:39. > :38:43.from the mug and you've got 30 seconds. You will both go at the

:38:44. > :38:47.same time. Both at the same time is I think the best. I'm going to get

:38:48. > :38:54.out of the way and we are going to start the timing. Three, two, one,

:38:55. > :39:07.go! Too far! Nearly! Go on. Can I give you a tip? Overrun. Yes! --

:39:08. > :39:14.over arm. It hit the cameraman! You need danger money. Let's check the

:39:15. > :39:24.timing. How are we for timing? Are we nearly there? Done. 30 seconds,

:39:25. > :39:31.done. Come on, girls. Come with me. How do you think you did? Terrible.

:39:32. > :39:35.It wasn't my best performance. I think you should get a bonus point

:39:36. > :39:41.for hitting the cameraman. You've done well! There were two of you,

:39:42. > :39:50.but you got three in. The British number one got two. Wow. I think

:39:51. > :39:56.you've done really well. Game, Set, Mug, congratulations. I would like

:39:57. > :40:00.to sell -- tell you we could give you a mug, but we don't have. Who

:40:01. > :40:06.are you hoping to see today? Hopefully Andy Murray. Either way

:40:07. > :40:10.the atmosphere will be amazing. Did you get any indication as to what

:40:11. > :40:17.the timing would be? When you get in you get a card and that has a number

:40:18. > :40:26.on it and I think 0-500 is centre and after 500 is called number one.

:40:27. > :40:31.We are 550 and 551. So we don't know. You've done brilliantly. That

:40:32. > :40:36.is pretty impressive, three, and we didn't even let the practice for a

:40:37. > :40:40.moment! Congratulations. Thanks very much. Back to you.

:40:41. > :40:47.Very impressive! Three in 30 seconds! I wonder if

:40:48. > :40:52.they will get onto the leaderboard. Andy Murray is on 14.

:40:53. > :40:58.He was very impressive. I think he is going to win.

:40:59. > :41:00.Am beatable! Let's go back to one of our main stories.

:41:01. > :41:03.War can't be ruled out - that was the message coming out

:41:04. > :41:07.of the United States last night, after it confirmed that North Korea

:41:08. > :41:08.had tested an intercontinental ballistic missile.

:41:09. > :41:13.So, why is Pyongyang pursuing nuclear weapons capabilities?

:41:14. > :41:16.Let's speak to Adam Cathcart, lecturer in Chinese history

:41:17. > :41:19.at the University of Leeds, who has written extensively on North

:41:20. > :41:27.Good morning. We know Kim Jong-un personally supervised this and he

:41:28. > :41:34.said it was a gift to America on Independence Day. What are North

:41:35. > :41:39.Korea's intentions? They've remained consistent, despite the shocking,

:41:40. > :41:45.electric response that these things tend to create, which they intend to

:41:46. > :41:49.create, in the US and outside North Korea. But they are consistent in

:41:50. > :41:54.the sense of national defence and building up the Kim Jong-un cold,

:41:55. > :42:01.showing he can defend the country against the mightiest superpower in

:42:02. > :42:05.the US. -- Kim Jong-un cult. It is about creating a strong nuclear

:42:06. > :42:08.deterrent and that the technical aspect that has the US worried. You

:42:09. > :42:13.talk about a nuclear deterrent because there is a difference

:42:14. > :42:18.between that and a nuclear attack. That's the concern, for the US,

:42:19. > :42:23.isn't it? They say this could mean more. Is that where we are at? Big

:42:24. > :42:28.it's been that way since 1953, in the sense that at the end of the

:42:29. > :42:33.Korean War, American troops remained in South Korea. 38,000 troops. China

:42:34. > :42:38.has remained loosely affiliated with North Korea, so you've got a proxy

:42:39. > :42:43.war, and anything can happen along the demilitarised zone at any time.

:42:44. > :42:48.So the question for me is whether this technical leap that they've

:42:49. > :42:52.made, this provocation, whether it will turn into a more tense and

:42:53. > :42:59.perhaps kinetic situation along the dinner at the -- demilitarised zone.

:43:00. > :43:03.In terms of the technology, this is what we've heard last night and this

:43:04. > :43:06.morning, this intercontinental ballistic missile which apparently

:43:07. > :43:10.can reach Alaska, in terms of the steps they need to make, they still

:43:11. > :43:15.need to make the warheads small enough to get on the top of this

:43:16. > :43:18.rocket and then the technology enables them to re-enter the earth's

:43:19. > :43:25.atmosphere, so they are still way away? They may be trained to move in

:43:26. > :43:29.that direction. They are demonstrating and highlighting for

:43:30. > :43:34.the world at every step that they are making progress on all of these

:43:35. > :43:38.areas. The question is whether they can pay for it and continue to pay

:43:39. > :43:42.for these things, given the imbalances in the economy,

:43:43. > :43:48.tightening sanctions and the rest. Talk about China, if you would for

:43:49. > :43:53.we know President Trump is talking to China as well. What difference

:43:54. > :43:58.could China's role make? They can support sanctions of the UN. They

:43:59. > :44:02.are stakeholder and have been and have strong words for North Korea.

:44:03. > :44:06.But if you go to the Chinese border with North Korea, as I do every

:44:07. > :44:13.year, you will find that sanction enforcement is sporadic and there

:44:14. > :44:23.are lots of areas of connectivity. So it's difficult to say. A great

:44:24. > :44:26.example is the truck from which this missile was launched was

:44:27. > :44:31.manufacturing China. How did this get across? Who is making money off

:44:32. > :44:34.this? To China has strong words from North Korea and Chinese people

:44:35. > :44:39.themselves are quite upset at North Korea often. But ultimately China's

:44:40. > :44:49.national interest appears to be to continue to play North Korea against

:44:50. > :44:55.the South Koreans and the Americans. What will the feeling be in South

:44:56. > :44:59.Korea? My understanding from talking to people in Seoul is that things

:45:00. > :45:03.are less tense there than they are here in some ways because it's a

:45:04. > :45:06.state of normal. Dot. Not a normal occurrence, but they are used to

:45:07. > :45:09.dealing with the American threat. They have a new president who

:45:10. > :45:15.recently met with President Trump and he is open to talks with North

:45:16. > :45:19.Korea. But they are not open to stopping joint military exercises.

:45:20. > :45:25.So Kim Jong-un has a difficult needle to thread here, if he is

:45:26. > :45:29.going to try to make peace with the South Koreans for throwing these

:45:30. > :45:36.missiles towards Japan every so often. Very insightful. Thank you.

:45:37. > :45:43.We are talking about Spam today, Spam is 80 years old would you

:45:44. > :45:48.believe? Not this ten, this one is fresh! You will be cracking it open

:45:49. > :45:54.later on! Thanks for your recipes and all of your facts coming in. Did

:45:55. > :46:00.you know... There will be a whole day of this! There are 13 varieties

:46:01. > :46:04.of Spam, two of those righties were introduced to celebrate the 75th

:46:35. > :46:45.Good morning. No Spam here, that's for sure, we've come to the south

:46:46. > :46:49.concourse at Wimbledon and you can see behind me Centre Court, there's

:46:50. > :46:54.lots of entrances, this is the south-west one, but look at this,

:46:55. > :46:58.this is resplendent in the morning sunshine, the members enclosure here

:46:59. > :47:03.and the competitors complex, the flowers are there, dark green and

:47:04. > :47:06.purple with the white introduced in 1909, the previous colours were

:47:07. > :47:10.identical with the Royal Marines and that's why they were changed, they

:47:11. > :47:14.were blue, yellow and red and the windows at the top being cleaned

:47:15. > :47:19.this morning so they are sparkly for later. They will be because the

:47:20. > :47:23.sunshine is out, the temperature here is rising and it will continue

:47:24. > :47:28.to rise a bit as we go through the day. The forecast is dry at

:47:29. > :47:32.Wimbledon today. A lot of sunshine and if you're coming down then bear

:47:33. > :47:36.that in mind and it will turn the mid-as we go through the day, but

:47:37. > :47:49.maximum temperatures of 28 and 29 or even as high as 30 -- turn humid.

:47:50. > :47:54.Warm in the south. As we go through the day, in southern counties, lots

:47:55. > :47:58.of sunshine, beautiful start, pleasantly warm already with a light

:47:59. > :48:02.breeze. As we go north across England, a little bit more cloud

:48:03. > :48:05.until we get to the north of England where we've got a weather front

:48:06. > :48:10.producing drizzle, coastal mist and hill fog. That extends into southern

:48:11. > :48:14.Scotland, Northern Scotland will be dry, bright and sunny Abe chilly

:48:15. > :48:26.start and in Northern Ireland, also a fine start -- and sunny, a chilly

:48:27. > :48:29.start. An absolute outside chance in the south-west you could see some

:48:30. > :48:35.thundery showers but you would be unlucky if you catch one. As we go

:48:36. > :48:39.further towards southern counties, back into the sunshine with

:48:40. > :48:43.temperatures continuing to romp up quickly. Through the course of the

:48:44. > :48:46.day the weather front dangling across southern Scotland and

:48:47. > :48:50.northern England will continue to break up, especially in south-west

:48:51. > :48:56.Scotland and north-west England. In north-east England and south-east

:48:57. > :49:00.Scotland we will hang onto this. Temperatures across England and

:49:01. > :49:04.Wales, the mid-to-high 20 is, especially in the south. In north

:49:05. > :49:09.Wales and northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, that little

:49:10. > :49:12.bit lower. Through the evening and overnight we will start importing

:49:13. > :49:16.thunderstorms across southern counties, some will be heavy. A new

:49:17. > :49:20.weather front will show its hand across western Scotland and Northern

:49:21. > :49:26.Ireland by the end of the night, introducing rain. Temperature wise,

:49:27. > :49:29.ten to 11. Tomorrow the rain in the north rattles through quickly and

:49:30. > :49:33.later another weather front comes to the west of Scotland, thunderstorms

:49:34. > :49:37.push north through the day. Some of those will be torrential with large

:49:38. > :49:43.hail in them but a lot will miss them all together, staying dry, hot,

:49:44. > :49:46.sunny and humid. Again tomorrow there's the potential for

:49:47. > :49:51.temperatures to reach 30 in parts of southern England. As we head into

:49:52. > :49:56.Friday, a lot of dry weather, fair bit of sunshine around, still hot

:49:57. > :50:00.and humid in the south-east, 29 or 30 possible, showers in noughties

:50:01. > :50:05.England and later in the day the next system shows its hand, coming

:50:06. > :50:10.into Northern Ireland introducing some rain -- north-east England. If

:50:11. > :50:12.you like it hot and sticky, we're certainly in for that especially in

:50:13. > :50:20.southern areas. Thanks, Carol, we will see you later

:50:21. > :50:25.and more from Sally later with some game, set, mug in the queue. Nobody

:50:26. > :50:29.in the queue is going to get angry my's record. 14 in 30 seconds! --

:50:30. > :50:30.Andy Murray's record. It's ten years to the day

:50:31. > :50:36.since interest rates last went up. Since they've hit record lows,

:50:37. > :50:39.Ben's been looking at what it means Interest rates are set every month

:50:40. > :50:43.by the Bank of England. But the last time they went up

:50:44. > :51:01.was ten years ago today. The cost of borrowing affects us

:51:02. > :51:05.all. It determines what we pay for our mortgage, how credit cards and

:51:06. > :51:10.loans. It also sets the way that we get interest on any savings. Take a

:51:11. > :51:15.look at the last ten years and one thing is pretty clear, rates have

:51:16. > :51:21.been going in One Direction and that's down, and it all began at the

:51:22. > :51:25.height of the financial crisis. The UK economy was put on emergency

:51:26. > :51:31.light support to keep it ticking over while the world's financial

:51:32. > :51:37.system was in turmoil. Between 2008 and 2009, rates were slashed from

:51:38. > :51:41.nearly 6% to just 0.5% and they've been at those record lows for a very

:51:42. > :51:47.long time. Just when people thought rates might start going up again,

:51:48. > :51:52.the Brexit vote created even more economic uncertainty and so rates

:51:53. > :51:58.were slashed again in August last year to just 0.25%. Low interest

:51:59. > :52:03.rates mean it's cheaper for businesses to borrow a to invest or

:52:04. > :52:11.expand, and it also means cheaper mortgages, loans and credit cards

:52:12. > :52:15.for all of us. But at what cost? It's bad news for savers, they've

:52:16. > :52:19.lost out with record low returns and low interest rates tend to push up

:52:20. > :52:25.inflation, so that means higher prices for everyone.

:52:26. > :52:28.Let's talk to Doctor John Glen from Cranfield School

:52:29. > :52:35.In that explanation I've touched on why interest rates have done what

:52:36. > :52:40.they have, I described it as life-support for the economy and it

:52:41. > :52:43.was. If we think back to 2008 the economy was in turmoil and the Bank

:52:44. > :52:47.of England needed to do something and this is something they could do.

:52:48. > :52:52.The economy was collapsing, we made the extreme decision to cut interest

:52:53. > :52:59.rates to historically low levels, that allow growth so at the back of

:53:00. > :53:04.2010 and the back of 2012 the economy grew as strongly as any

:53:05. > :53:11.economy globally as a result of our decision. Rates have been so low

:53:12. > :53:15.since March 2009, it's incredible they have been at that level and a

:53:16. > :53:19.whole generation of borrowers who have never seen an interest rate

:53:20. > :53:23.rise? 2.5 million households who have mortgages have never seen an

:53:24. > :53:28.increase in that mortgage rate, so they are used to paying low rates of

:53:29. > :53:32.interest and if interest rates increased significantly that would

:53:33. > :53:36.impact their household budgets in a meaningful way. For people who have

:53:37. > :53:39.never seen that increase it would come as a big shock, the amount they

:53:40. > :53:45.are paying each month on their mortgage, credit card or loan would

:53:46. > :53:49.go up? Yes, but we have to be realistic, if we saw 0.5% increase

:53:50. > :53:54.that would be something most households could cope with, if we

:53:55. > :53:58.went back to the 5% interest rate we were paying ten years ago that would

:53:59. > :54:03.be an enormous strain on household budgets. Where are we? America has

:54:04. > :54:07.started raising its interest rate and there's pressure on other

:54:08. > :54:10.countries to do the same and the Bank of England, a few on the

:54:11. > :54:17.ratesetting committee think it is time? The vote in June was 5/3,

:54:18. > :54:21.people are starting to think that it's time to increase interest

:54:22. > :54:26.rates. We are seeing an economy that is very close to full employment,

:54:27. > :54:29.there are dangers of inflation because of Brexit and increased

:54:30. > :54:33.import prices but on the other hand we are seeing relatively poor growth

:54:34. > :54:38.of around 1.5% this year and next year so the worry about growth at

:54:39. > :54:41.the minute is overriding worry is the Bank of England has about

:54:42. > :54:45.inflation. I want to talk about inflation because that is starting

:54:46. > :54:50.to creep up and cheap money means we will spend and that is pushing up

:54:51. > :54:59.prices, the flipside as I mentioned in the report. It is but at the at

:55:00. > :55:02.the moment the inflation is being caused by a reduction in the value

:55:03. > :55:06.of the pound and external factors, although external prices have abated

:55:07. > :55:09.recently but at the moment the Bank of England things on balance the

:55:10. > :55:12.inflation worries are less than the worry about growth going forward.

:55:13. > :55:16.What happens next, when do rates start to go up? They start to go up

:55:17. > :55:19.when the economy starts to recover, we see an amount of recovery when we

:55:20. > :55:24.have recovered from Brexit uncertainty at the end of 2018 and

:55:25. > :55:28.you might see one or two minor increases over that period, but it

:55:29. > :55:33.will be posted 2018 before we actually see any significant

:55:34. > :55:38.increases in interest rates -- post-2018. Thanks very much, John

:55:39. > :55:41.Glenn. More about that from me after 7am.

:55:42. > :55:42.See you then. Thanks very much indeed, Ben.

:55:43. > :55:44.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:55:45. > :55:55.We will be back at Wimbledon. That's not a re-enactment of the Battle of

:55:56. > :55:59.Hastings, that is the Wimbledon queue preparing to get in on day

:56:00. > :56:04.three of the Wimbledon Championships. And once again it is

:56:05. > :59:24.extremely orderly. We do love a clean

:59:25. > :59:27.Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

:59:28. > :59:29.Now, though, it's back to Dan and Louise.

:59:30. > :00:16.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:00:43. > :00:45.After an angry meeting last night with the police,

:00:46. > :00:47.residents say their questions still aren't being answered.

:00:48. > :00:50.Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is.

:00:51. > :01:04.Good morning, it's Wednesday July 5th.

:01:05. > :01:11.Victims of stalking and harassment are being left at risk,

:01:12. > :01:14.because of failings by police and prosecutors.

:01:15. > :01:17.A new report blames poor investigations and a lack

:01:18. > :01:23.An average debt of more than ?50,000 for university students in England.

:01:24. > :01:29.A new report says they'll be paying it off into their 50s.

:01:30. > :01:32.It's ten years to the day since the cost of borrowing

:01:33. > :01:37.They've been at record lows since then, but why and what does it

:01:38. > :01:39.mean for borrowers, savers and the economy?

:01:40. > :01:53.Some of these lucky people might get to see Andy Murray on centre court

:01:54. > :01:58.later today. That's after two of his main rivals said there may have to

:01:59. > :02:02.be the rule change after their opponents retired early due to

:02:03. > :02:06.injury. And Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de France. He had a

:02:07. > :02:12.collision with Peter Sagan, who has been disqualified from the race.

:02:13. > :02:17.And the sun is beating down. Temperatures in the south of England

:02:18. > :02:22.at the moment are 16 Celsius. In the north of Scotland, in the sunshine,

:02:23. > :02:27.only four degrees. A real contrast. Hot and humid in the south, and we

:02:28. > :02:30.have a weather front producing cloud and drizzle in northern England.

:02:31. > :02:35.That will improve through the day. More in 15 minutes.

:02:36. > :02:38.See you later. And Sally will be back with the sport later.

:02:39. > :02:41.Most of the families who lost their homes

:02:42. > :02:44.in the devastating Grenfell Tower fire are still living in hotels,

:02:45. > :02:47.despite government pledges to rehouse them all by today.

:02:48. > :02:50.There was also anger and frustration at a meeting with police

:02:51. > :02:52.and the Westminster Coroner last night, where residents demanded

:02:53. > :02:54.to know why there have been no arrests.

:02:55. > :02:57.The coroner is said to have described the scene

:02:58. > :02:58.inside the building as "apocalyptic".

:02:59. > :03:04.This was the first opportunity for families to put their questions

:03:05. > :03:08.directly to police and the Westminster coroner.

:03:09. > :03:12.One reason this private meeting lasted more than 3.5 hours.

:03:13. > :03:15.It's understood relatives were told in graphic detail the challenge that

:03:16. > :03:17.forensic teams are facing in even trying to find DNA

:03:18. > :03:24.They say the information they are getting isn't good enough.

:03:25. > :03:27.We personally asked, where is our family?

:03:28. > :03:29.We want to know, is our families' bodies still there?

:03:30. > :03:35.Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is,

:03:36. > :03:38.And the answers that were coming back were,

:03:39. > :03:45."We don't know, we don't know, we don't know."

:03:46. > :03:47.Today is the deadline set by Theresa May

:03:48. > :03:51.to rehouse the 158 families made homeless by the disaster.

:03:52. > :03:55.According to the Grenfell response team, that target has been met,

:03:56. > :03:59.with 139 formal offers made, but just nine have been accepted.

:04:00. > :04:01.Lawyers for survivors say most of the accommodation is

:04:02. > :04:16.My daughter, she is losing her focus because it's not her place. They

:04:17. > :04:18.need something suitable for them. Something with dignity. That's what

:04:19. > :04:24.we are looking. -- for. Three weeks after the tragedy,

:04:25. > :04:26.police still maintain their investigation will be

:04:27. > :04:28.exhaustive and will bring the answers that the families

:04:29. > :04:40.desperately deserve, Many questions still to be answered,

:04:41. > :04:42.not least why these families aren't in permanent accommodation at the

:04:43. > :04:43.moment. We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman

:04:44. > :04:47.of the Grenfell Fire Response Team Victims of harassment and stalking

:04:48. > :04:52.in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:04:53. > :04:54.by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:04:55. > :04:58.weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:04:59. > :05:00.and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:05:01. > :05:05.and concluded that none had been Officers and prosecutors

:05:06. > :05:09.were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very nature both

:05:10. > :05:17.stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really pernicious

:05:18. > :05:19.and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors

:05:20. > :05:22.were missing that, which meant that The United States has confirmed that

:05:23. > :05:34.a weapon fired into the Sea of Japan by North Korea was an

:05:35. > :05:36.intercontinental ballistic missile. In response, the US

:05:37. > :05:50.and South Korea carried out Officers from the US and China said

:05:51. > :05:53.self restraint was the toys that could change at any time.

:05:54. > :05:56.For the latest, let's speak to our Beijing correspondent Stephen

:05:57. > :06:03.You hear the words used to describe the situation. Things have certainly

:06:04. > :06:08.stepped up a notch. I think they have. There's no doubt about that at

:06:09. > :06:15.all. The realisation that North Korea can reach Alaska, although not

:06:16. > :06:20.the lower states of the US, clearly raises the stakes. What the military

:06:21. > :06:27.on the peninsular have been doing is warning with words, saying, as you

:06:28. > :06:31.say, that the difference between war and peace is self restraint and we

:06:32. > :06:37.can choose to change our decision on that. But also letting off live

:06:38. > :06:44.missiles into the ocean to the west of the country demonstrated that the

:06:45. > :06:51.alliance has the firepower, should things turn from the Armistice to

:06:52. > :06:57.full-blown war. So it's a serious matter. I don't think a red line,

:06:58. > :07:04.the famous red line, has been crushed -- crossed yet. Back in

:07:05. > :07:08.January President Trump said an intercontinental missile won't

:07:09. > :07:11.happen. As bluntly as that. This missile seems to be

:07:12. > :07:15.intercontinental, but it's not proven that they can get the warhead

:07:16. > :07:20.back into the atmosphere and it is not proven to be accurate. So we're

:07:21. > :07:27.not quite there yet, but the big question, and we don't know the

:07:28. > :07:29.answer, is whether President Trump has ruled out war, like President

:07:30. > :07:31.Obama did. Police repeatedly failed a disabled

:07:32. > :07:34.refugee who sought their help before being murdered in Bristol four years

:07:35. > :07:37.ago, according to a report by the Independent Police

:07:38. > :07:40.Complaints Commission. Bijan Ebrahimi made more than 80

:07:41. > :07:43.calls to police, mainly to report racial abuse,

:07:44. > :07:49.criminal damage and threats to kill. He was eventually beaten to death

:07:50. > :07:52.by a neighbour who wrongly believed Avon and Somerset police say

:07:53. > :07:57.they have made changes and have The average student debt

:07:58. > :08:18.for graduates in England is set That's a lot of money and no doubt

:08:19. > :08:23.takes a long time to pay that back? Pretty stark figures this morning

:08:24. > :08:27.from the IFS, suggesting students will pay into their 50s before they

:08:28. > :08:31.start to make a dent into that debt they accumulate while at university.

:08:32. > :08:36.Did you suggest that if you take out a loan to cover your student debts

:08:37. > :08:41.of about ?45,000, that would cover you for about three or four years.

:08:42. > :08:45.You would end up paying about ?51,000 by the time you put interest

:08:46. > :08:49.on top of that, so understandably people will be paying it for a

:08:50. > :08:53.longtime. They also say it's a double whammy because there is a

:08:54. > :08:59.threshold at which you have to start paying it back and that's ?21,000.

:09:00. > :09:05.That's not gone up, so more people are going to have to pay it. The

:09:06. > :09:09.really worrying finding is that the average interest rate is about 6.1%.

:09:10. > :09:14.That's how much you pay in interest. I've been talking this morning about

:09:15. > :09:19.how we have all been dealing with a record low interest rate. The Bank

:09:20. > :09:25.of England is just 0.25%. So there's a big question about why student

:09:26. > :09:29.loans are charging 6.1%. A lot of money students have to pay back,

:09:30. > :09:35.paying well into their 50s, with the average debt reaching ?51,000.

:09:36. > :09:39.That's a lot of bar jobs. Thank you.

:09:40. > :09:43.It was one of the key promises from Theresa May in the wake

:09:44. > :09:46.of the Grenfell Tower tragedy - that all survivors would be rehoused

:09:47. > :09:52.Despite that pledge only nine offers have been accepted and many families

:09:53. > :09:56.So, three weeks after that devastating fire,

:09:57. > :09:59.why are so many people still not living in a place

:10:00. > :10:04.In a moment we'll speak to Eleanor Kelly,

:10:05. > :10:06.from the Grenfell Response Team, but first our reporter

:10:07. > :10:10.Frankie McCamley went to meet one man who lived in the tower

:10:11. > :10:18.Sid-Ali and his daughter Hayam and his wife lived on the 15th floor

:10:19. > :10:24.They've now been living in a hotel for three weeks.

:10:25. > :10:28.It's not comfortable and it doesn't feel like home.

:10:29. > :10:34.I miss my room and all the memories I had, my baby albums,

:10:35. > :10:45.She's losing her focus because this isn't her place,

:10:46. > :10:54.I find it hard to sleep, I have nightmares about if it

:10:55. > :11:01.happens again, if I wake up and I see fire in the building.

:11:02. > :11:12.I feel I have no power to take away all this pain from her.

:11:13. > :11:16.If I could, I would, I would take all the pain and put

:11:17. > :11:23.The families say they have received calls of support from local services

:11:24. > :11:26.but what they really want is for someone to visit them.

:11:27. > :11:29.The people in my building, they were very close to me

:11:30. > :11:42.and they were like family and seeing them go wasn't good.

:11:43. > :11:45.As the family struggle to come to terms with what happened,

:11:46. > :11:49.they say they have been offered a two bedroom flat just over a mile

:11:50. > :11:52.away, but Sid-Ali says it's too far from Hayam's school and it's

:11:53. > :12:00.They need to see us as a victim and treat us with dignity,

:12:01. > :12:04.we're not numbers, we're not numbers.

:12:05. > :12:17.Three weeks they haven't found a solution.

:12:18. > :12:19.The council says it's made 139 offers of accommodation

:12:20. > :12:22.to Grenfell Tower residents, nine of which have been accepted.

:12:23. > :12:25.It says the three-week target of offering temporary homes to those

:12:26. > :12:28.affected has been met, but for this family the money

:12:29. > :12:34.and support they've been offered has simply not been good enough.

:12:35. > :12:39.They're putting a price on us, they give ?5,000 each and ?500,

:12:40. > :12:54.Have you got any faith in their services any more?

:12:55. > :12:58.No, I have faith in the residence, I have faith in the community,

:12:59. > :13:01.I have faith in the people who live their lives...

:13:02. > :13:10.My faith is there, my faith is there.

:13:11. > :13:15.Let's speak now to Eleanor Kelly, Chief Executive of Southwark

:13:16. > :13:17.Council and spokesperson of the Grenfell

:13:18. > :13:25.I know you were listening to that report and you really get a sense of

:13:26. > :13:29.what a predicament these people who lived in the tower are in. I

:13:30. > :13:34.understand you have made them an offer, but for this family it isn't

:13:35. > :13:38.acceptable because it isn't close to her school. When will you make

:13:39. > :13:43.offers that will be acceptable to these families? We are working our

:13:44. > :13:48.way through the offers to all of the families and many families are now

:13:49. > :13:55.on their second or third offer. I think what your piece demonstrated

:13:56. > :13:59.is that there is an enormous emotional impact on people. It is

:14:00. > :14:04.just moving out of one home to look for another. That's why the level of

:14:05. > :14:10.acceptances are now so low. It's now at 14. But it is very low because

:14:11. > :14:14.people don't want to move twice. They are looking for their permanent

:14:15. > :14:18.home and everybody would be able to understand that. Your piece also

:14:19. > :14:23.demonstrates the need for a package of support, emotional, financial and

:14:24. > :14:32.social, around the people whose been made homeless and in many respects

:14:33. > :14:38.destitute from Grenfell Tower. Just looking at the quote, I respect what

:14:39. > :14:44.you say, but you have missed the deadline. On the 28th of June will

:14:45. > :14:50.who lost their home will be rehoused by the fifth of July and in housing

:14:51. > :14:55.acceptable to them. This isn't happening. The original target given

:14:56. > :15:00.by the PM was that all of the people who have lost their homes at

:15:01. > :15:03.Grenfell Tower and Grenfell Walk would be offered suitable

:15:04. > :15:09.accommodation, matched to their housing needs, and that the process

:15:10. > :15:12.with gore through. 139 of the households have been offered the

:15:13. > :15:21.accommodation and 19 have not yet been in a position either with their

:15:22. > :15:24.family or themselves not to engage with the housing authorities at this

:15:25. > :15:29.time and that's understandable. I think the issue is about looking at

:15:30. > :15:38.the individual families and looking at their decisions at this time.

:15:39. > :15:46.Three weeks is not a longtime to recover. In terms of the offers that

:15:47. > :15:49.are made, people go to areas they thought they wanted to go to and

:15:50. > :15:52.when they goes there they say, I can't come here. We have to

:15:53. > :15:58.understand that and be emotionally responsive to the fact that it will

:15:59. > :16:02.take people along time to really work through where they want to go.

:16:03. > :16:05.That's why very many of the families are choosing to stay in the

:16:06. > :16:10.emergency hotel accommodation for the moment and make a permanent

:16:11. > :16:15.move. We have to understand that and we have to deal with each individual

:16:16. > :16:21.family and their circumstances as appropriately and as sensitively as

:16:22. > :16:24.we can. Are you doing it sensitively? We heard from the

:16:25. > :16:30.father, saying they've received calls. No one has visited them. I

:16:31. > :16:34.think the issue is in relation to... In terms of anybody who is breathed,

:16:35. > :16:39.they have a family liaison officer. -- bereaved. We know some people

:16:40. > :16:45.have chosen to have their key workers contact them by telephone

:16:46. > :16:49.and other people want to see them face-to-face. The particular example

:16:50. > :16:52.you gave is one where we would have to look into why the key worker

:16:53. > :16:57.isn't visiting face-to-face. At the point that was made by the young

:16:58. > :17:00.girl in your programme is that she needs contact from the community.

:17:01. > :17:06.She wants contact from the surviving neighbours, to be able to be clear

:17:07. > :17:10.that they are not alone and they aren't the only people from their

:17:11. > :17:13.floor or building who survived and that's a really important point.

:17:14. > :17:18.They don't just need contact from the authorities, they need contact

:17:19. > :17:21.and space and understanding as a community

:17:22. > :17:28.What are you going to do to help her with that crazy they are in

:17:29. > :17:32.accommodation that is in their home, how do you help them have that

:17:33. > :17:37.support, you seem to be putting it back on the community? I'm not doing

:17:38. > :17:40.that at all, the fact is we are working closely with call groups of

:17:41. > :17:44.community organisations to put that support in place and we're also

:17:45. > :17:49.looking to see what facilities need to be provided in a much more

:17:50. > :17:52.nurturing and smaller and more community led space, rather than the

:17:53. > :17:59.facilities currently provided in the Westway sports centre. When will

:18:00. > :18:03.these families be in permanent accommodation that they find

:18:04. > :18:08.acceptable, that they're happy with? When you're dealing with 158

:18:09. > :18:12.families, of which only 14 have currently accepted the temporary

:18:13. > :18:16.accommodation, you have to factor in it goes at the pace of each

:18:17. > :18:22.individual family. It isn't just about identification of appropriate

:18:23. > :18:25.properties in Kensington and the, Westminster, Hammersmith and Fulham,

:18:26. > :18:31.it's about going at the pace of each individual as to what it is that

:18:32. > :18:34.they want for themselves -- Kensington and Chelsea Council be

:18:35. > :18:40.that's the important point and that's why you can't put a timeframe

:18:41. > :18:46.on it and rushing people, it's about understanding the impact on these

:18:47. > :18:50.families -- Kensington and the. It's about making the right decisions and

:18:51. > :18:54.doing the right thing to help them move forward. Let's be clear, these

:18:55. > :18:59.people will need emotional and social support for a long time.

:19:00. > :19:02.Thanks very much for your time on Breakfast.

:19:03. > :19:08.We want to know your response as well. You can contact us on Twitter,

:19:09. > :19:18.social media and Facebook. Carol is at Wimbledon, hot and humid

:19:19. > :19:23.for many parts of the UK overnight, in those lonely corridors between

:19:24. > :19:28.the outside courts? That's right. Hot and humid today for many

:19:29. > :19:33.southern areas in particular but let me show you Court ten, just in time,

:19:34. > :19:38.the ground staff are busy pulling back the cover. On the outside

:19:39. > :19:42.courts there are six members of the team, the court attendants, who pull

:19:43. > :19:47.back the covers and it takes them between a minute and a minute and a

:19:48. > :19:52.half, it's a boom system so they use real brute force and they're doing a

:19:53. > :19:56.fine job, done so neatly! If you're on centre court or Court one, there

:19:57. > :20:01.are 17 groundstaff that do it, it's a different system, a tent cover,

:20:02. > :20:05.they grab hold of the handles and they run with it after the net has

:20:06. > :20:11.been dropped. The record time they have done that in is I believe 17

:20:12. > :20:16.seconds. It's done on a numerical basis, from zero to eight, if it is

:20:17. > :20:19.zero the groundstaff know it will be sunny, nothing to worry about but

:20:20. > :20:26.the minute it changes to one they are on standby and when it gets to

:20:27. > :20:31.two, the umpire can stop play because of a light shower. No light

:20:32. > :20:34.showers in the forecast today, what we have is a dry day with a lot of

:20:35. > :20:39.sunshine. Increasingly it will be hot and it

:20:40. > :20:46.will be humid. Maximum temperatures at Wimbledon are likely to hit 28 or

:20:47. > :20:50.29, maybe even 30 in light winds so if you're coming down, bear that in

:20:51. > :20:55.mind, slip, slap, slop. For most today it will be humid and warm in

:20:56. > :21:00.the coming days but a cool stuff for some, but not in the south, at 9am

:21:01. > :21:06.20 in London and Ipswich in the morning sunshine. As we drift across

:21:07. > :21:10.the Midlands, sunshine into Northern England, more cloud, a weather front

:21:11. > :21:13.is decaying but still producing drizzle, especially in north-east

:21:14. > :21:17.England and some hill fog and coastal fog and that cloud extends

:21:18. > :21:22.into southern Scotland. Northern Scotland is co-, only four at the

:21:23. > :21:26.moment but sunny. In Northern Ireland, a brilliant start if you

:21:27. > :21:31.like it sunny and pleasantly warm, temperature continuing to rise.

:21:32. > :21:34.North Wales, more cloud, breaking up in the morning, south Wales and

:21:35. > :21:37.south-west England back into the sunshine. An outside chance in

:21:38. > :21:43.south-west England of a thundery shower this morning but consider

:21:44. > :21:46.yourself lucky if you do. Drifting from Gloucestershire to Dorset,

:21:47. > :21:49.Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, back into the sunshine

:21:50. > :21:53.and rising temperatures. Through the day where we have the weather front

:21:54. > :21:57.in northern England and southern Scotland it will break up, brighten

:21:58. > :22:00.up, especially in south-west Scotland and north-west England so

:22:01. > :22:04.the temperature will rise here but where we hang on to more cloud in

:22:05. > :22:08.the north-east or south-east of Scotland we are looking at lower

:22:09. > :22:12.temperatures and feeling chillier. Highs today at 230 in the south of

:22:13. > :22:17.England, in the north of Scotland, Northern Ireland, in the sunshine,

:22:18. > :22:21.high teens or the low 20s. Through this evening and overnight we import

:22:22. > :22:24.thunderstorms from the near continent, especially later in the

:22:25. > :22:28.night. Also a weather front coming in across Northern Ireland and west

:22:29. > :22:33.Scotland introducing rain. Tomorrow that rain quite quickly with across

:22:34. > :22:38.Scotland and Northern Ireland and then another system comes into the

:22:39. > :22:42.west. Also thunderstorms in the south travelling north. Some of

:22:43. > :22:45.those will be torrential downpours with large hail embedded in them,

:22:46. > :22:49.some of us will miss them all together and have a hot and humid

:22:50. > :22:54.and sunny day but temperature wise we are still in the area of 30,

:22:55. > :22:59.somewhere across southern England and south Wales too. As we head into

:23:00. > :23:03.Friday, the thunderstorm risk diminishes, one or two first thing

:23:04. > :23:06.in the south-east but that's it, then it will be largely dry and

:23:07. > :23:11.sunny. Some showers in north-east England and later in the day the

:23:12. > :23:15.next system shows its hand across Northern Ireland. Still in the high

:23:16. > :23:18.20s in the south but more comfortable for the rest of the UK.

:23:19. > :23:25.Thank you very much, Carol. It looks glorious. Back with you later. Very

:23:26. > :23:29.busy getting everything ready and Sally will later be talking about a

:23:30. > :23:35.bit of Wimbledon controversy, people have been dropping out early, you

:23:36. > :23:38.get ?35,000 for just turning up to Wimbledon. Players are injured and

:23:39. > :23:45.then they still go and they still play. They know they have a bad

:23:46. > :23:49.back, they go, take the muggy, retire halfway through the second

:23:50. > :23:53.set, happened to Djokovic and Federer yesterday -- take the money.

:23:54. > :23:59.Quite a few fans have been moaning about that. Feel free. We like to be

:24:00. > :24:02.the conduit for your moaning. Send it our way and we will pass it on to

:24:03. > :24:02.Sally. If you are in need of certain

:24:03. > :24:05.operations or require access to mental health services then

:24:06. > :24:09.you may find that they're no longer routinely funded in

:24:10. > :24:10.some areas in England. That's According to a Freedom

:24:11. > :24:13.of Information request published It shows there's been a surge

:24:14. > :24:17.in the number of funding requests that doctors are now

:24:18. > :24:20.being forced to make on behalf Here to discuss the issue further

:24:21. > :24:29.is GP Doctor Fari Ahmed. Thank you so much for joining us.

:24:30. > :24:33.You assume some of these things are routine, but is it changing? Yes,

:24:34. > :24:43.that is the short answer. There's not enough money and CCGs all over

:24:44. > :24:47.the UK having to make decisions about what to fund and what not to

:24:48. > :24:52.fund. Individual funding requests were a special way of accessing

:24:53. > :24:56.treatments or medication that aren't routine, if you have a case for it

:24:57. > :25:00.you apply to the people that hold the purse strings and you say this

:25:01. > :25:04.is the case and the reasons, can we make an exception for this person?

:25:05. > :25:08.They were good but what seems to be happening now is for things that

:25:09. > :25:12.wouldn't normally need special requests, like hips and knees,

:25:13. > :25:17.people in some areas are having to do that. Is it coming down to

:25:18. > :25:24.funding essentially? Again it is a funding issue? Yes. The reality is

:25:25. > :25:27.everyone knows there's not enough money in the NHS, we can't fund

:25:28. > :25:31.everything for everybody all the time and we don't have any

:25:32. > :25:35.politicians or people brave enough to say we can't fund everything so

:25:36. > :25:39.there are all these little smoke and mirrors and ways of not funding

:25:40. > :25:44.certain things in certain areas and what we actually need is someone to

:25:45. > :25:49.say at NHS England, look, this is what we can fund and this is what we

:25:50. > :25:53.can't, let's be honest and tell people. For example if you're in one

:25:54. > :25:59.area you would get your knee or hip operation but somewhere else you

:26:00. > :26:04.wouldn't? We are back to postcode lottery again. It's not transparent,

:26:05. > :26:08.it's not clear why... There's not enough money for everything in the

:26:09. > :26:12.NHS, we all understand that, but how does it get allocated and who makes

:26:13. > :26:17.those decisions? It is supposedly left up to clinical groups but if

:26:18. > :26:22.they don't get enough money to fund what they need then something has to

:26:23. > :26:27.be funded and something isn't. Frustrating for patients as it is

:26:28. > :26:32.frustrating for you, and more work for GPs? Yes. If somebody needs an

:26:33. > :26:39.individual funding request then you have a huge mound of paperwork and

:26:40. > :26:43.they are tiresome to fill out and you need the input of other people

:26:44. > :26:47.and you need to build a case for your patient and then it goes in

:26:48. > :26:52.front of a panel and a SS it and look at it and they consider the

:26:53. > :26:56.funding. In the meantime the patient is left in limbo -- assess it.

:26:57. > :27:00.You're still their GP and you have to help them with what's going on

:27:01. > :27:03.and there's all sorts of knock on effects. If it's an operation for

:27:04. > :27:07.their knee or hip then they are still in pain, you want the physio

:27:08. > :27:12.to see them and they still see you and it's got psychological effects

:27:13. > :27:16.on them, work, family, huge! We have to deal with it because we are

:27:17. > :27:20.front-line. Thanks for coming to talk to us.

:27:21. > :27:25.Another funding issue for the NHS, we seem to get at least a few a day!

:27:26. > :27:27.I hope somebody is listening to it and they will make some changes!

:27:28. > :27:28.Thanks so much! You're watching

:27:29. > :27:30.Breakfast from BBC News. Think

:27:31. > :27:40.of Snapchat and you probably think of these, fun filters,

:27:41. > :27:43.but we'll have more on a new feature causing concern among some child

:27:44. > :27:45.safety campaigners. Time now to get the news,

:27:46. > :27:54.travel and weather where you are. It is all about location and whether

:27:55. > :27:56.you are sharing your location and if you even know you're doing it. All

:27:57. > :31:19.those questions soon. Now, though, it's back

:31:20. > :31:21.to Dan and Louise. Hello, this is Breakfast,

:31:22. > :31:37.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. We will be at Wimbledon shortly. The

:31:38. > :31:41.main stories this morning: Most of the families

:31:42. > :31:44.who lost their homes in the devastating Grenfell Tower

:31:45. > :31:47.fire are still living in hotels, despite government pledges

:31:48. > :31:51.to rehouse them all by today. Officials say everyone has been made

:31:52. > :31:53.an offer of temporary accommodation, but lawyers for the families say

:31:54. > :31:57.many are unsuitable. There was also anger

:31:58. > :31:59.at a meeting with police and the Westminster Coroner last

:32:00. > :32:02.night, where residents demanded to know why there

:32:03. > :32:13.have been no arrests. speaking to us in the last

:32:14. > :32:18.half-hour, a spokeswoman for the Grenfell Tower response team said

:32:19. > :32:23.the council would continue to try to find a home for all residents. When

:32:24. > :32:26.you are dealing with 158 families, of which only 14 have currently

:32:27. > :32:30.accepted accommodation, you have to factor in that it goes at the pace

:32:31. > :32:35.of each individual family and that's the important point and that's why

:32:36. > :32:40.you can't put a timescale on it, the course it's not about numbers and

:32:41. > :32:43.it's not about Russian people. It's about understanding the devastating

:32:44. > :32:46.impact on this family and each family have to have wraparound

:32:47. > :32:49.support in order to make the right decisions and get to the right

:32:50. > :32:52.decision, in order to be able to help them to move forward.

:32:53. > :32:55.Victims of harassment and stalking in England and Wales are being left

:32:56. > :32:58.at risk because of failings by police and prosecutors,

:32:59. > :33:02.Two watchdogs found that crimes weren't being recorded,

:33:03. > :33:04.investigations were poorly conducted and legal protection wasn't offered

:33:05. > :33:08.They examined 112 cases in detail and concluded that none had been

:33:18. > :33:20.ruled out, following Pyongyang's intercontinental ballistic missile

:33:21. > :33:25.The two countries' most senior officers based in South Korea said

:33:26. > :33:32.self restraint was a choice, which could change at any time.

:33:33. > :33:35.North Korea has quoted its leader Kim Jong-un taunting the US,

:33:36. > :33:38.calling its missile test a gift to the Americans

:33:39. > :33:43.Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign promoter of Islamist extremism

:33:44. > :33:47.in the UK, according to a foreign policy think tank.

:33:48. > :33:50.The Henry Jackson Society accuses Saudi individuals and foundations

:33:51. > :33:52.of exporting "an illiberal, bigoted ideology" and calls

:33:53. > :33:54.for the UK government's secret report into extremism

:33:55. > :33:59.The Saudi embassy in London has called the allegations

:34:00. > :34:07.The rationing of NHS treatments such as hip,

:34:08. > :34:10.knee and cataract operations, as well as mental health services,

:34:11. > :34:14.has increased significantly in England over the past four years

:34:15. > :34:19.according to a study published in the British Medical Journal.

:34:20. > :34:21.Growing financial pressure and increased demand for services

:34:22. > :34:24.has led some areas to withdraw funding for some procedures,

:34:25. > :34:28.leading to what doctors describe as a growing postcode lottery.

:34:29. > :34:32.Students starting their studies in England this September can expect

:34:33. > :34:36.to graduate with average debts of more than ?50,000.

:34:37. > :34:39.That's according to a report by the Institute for Fiscal Studies,

:34:40. > :34:41.which also indicates that students from the poorest backgrounds

:34:42. > :34:44.will leave university with the highest debts.

:34:45. > :34:47.The study's authors described the new 6.1% interest rates

:34:48. > :34:58.The Department of Education declined to comment.

:34:59. > :35:07.We are celebrating Spam today. It is the food that kept troops alive in

:35:08. > :35:11.the Second World War. It fed on willing children for many

:35:12. > :35:15.generations! The 80th birthday for Spam. We have an interesting

:35:16. > :35:23.relationship with it. Some people love it. 8 billion cans

:35:24. > :35:27.of the stuff have been sold. I am led to believe it's a delicacy in

:35:28. > :35:34.some parts of the world. Lots of people are sending in

:35:35. > :35:40.recipes. Someone says they made a Spam curry, it was revolting. Bill

:35:41. > :35:45.says he makes fried eggs sandwiches, with Spam.

:35:46. > :35:49.Grilled on toast, smothered in beans.

:35:50. > :35:54.And Caroline says she thinks she had Spam once and it turned her into a

:35:55. > :36:09.vegetarian. A fact. The highest it has of Spam -- eaters of Spam are

:36:10. > :36:14.from Guam. Thousands of cans of Spam every year. But 50% of deaths there

:36:15. > :36:22.are down to poor diet. They may not be linked! Potentially.

:36:23. > :36:26.Someone has very generously given us a tin of Spam, which we will try

:36:27. > :36:31.later. You will try later! Over to

:36:32. > :36:37.Wimbledon. Sally is out and about, with long queues again.

:36:38. > :36:44.I feel like I've never known so much about Spam in my life. Good morning.

:36:45. > :36:51.Good morning from the Wimbledon queue. This is the point where it

:36:52. > :36:55.all gets a bit tense, as tense as it will get here. More on that in a

:36:56. > :37:05.second. For a start on sport, I want to bring you this story from the

:37:06. > :37:10.Times. This happened yesterday. One tennis player threw his towel into

:37:11. > :37:16.the crowd. This young man caught it. This grown up man then took it off

:37:17. > :37:24.him and he was really quite disappointed about it. Jack found

:37:25. > :37:28.out about it and has said, if anybody knows the kid who tried to

:37:29. > :37:32.catch my towel, let me know. Judy Murray has spoken about the grown-up

:37:33. > :37:36.man. She says, if you are the bloke in the blue polo shirt you should be

:37:37. > :37:41.ashamed! I wonder what will happen? I think that we might get his own

:37:42. > :37:47.towel. Andy Murray is on court, due to be on centre court, today. He is

:37:48. > :37:54.a huge crowd favourite. That will be one to watch.

:37:55. > :38:00.Some controversy yesterday after two players went off after being

:38:01. > :38:02.injured. Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer said it might be time to

:38:03. > :38:03.change the rules. Martin Klizan lasted only 40 minutes

:38:04. > :38:06.against Djokovic before his calf And Roger Federer's match

:38:07. > :38:09.wasn't much longer. Alexander Dolgopolov was forced off

:38:10. > :38:12.with an ankle injury. Federer and Djokovic joked

:38:13. > :38:15.in the locker room that they should go out and play a practice set

:38:16. > :38:18.together, they'd had so little time There was more controversy

:38:19. > :38:23.after Australian Bernard Tomic said he was "bored" during his

:38:24. > :38:25.straight-sets defeat to Mischa He also admitted to using a medical

:38:26. > :38:32.time-out to try to slow down the match, which could

:38:33. > :38:39.earn him a fine. After going out in the first

:38:40. > :38:43.round for the last four years Kyle Edmund finally made it

:38:44. > :38:46.through to round two, when he beat his fellow

:38:47. > :38:48.Brit Alex Ward. He is on the programme

:38:49. > :38:50.with us here later. And women's world number one

:38:51. > :38:53.Angelique Kerber is through, after beating American

:38:54. > :38:55.qualifier Irina Falconi. Kerber was runner up last

:38:56. > :39:01.year to Serena Williams. Away from the tennis,

:39:02. > :39:05.a dramatic crash yesterday. Mark Cavendish is out

:39:06. > :39:07.of the Tour de France. World champion Peter Sagan

:39:08. > :39:10.was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:39:11. > :39:12.appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:39:13. > :39:17.and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one

:39:18. > :39:20.of the worst defeats Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:39:21. > :39:24.at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:39:25. > :39:27.team from Luxembourg and they lost

:39:28. > :39:29.2-0 on the night, Billy Monger, the teenage racing

:39:30. > :39:38.driver involved in a crash earlier this year which saw him

:39:39. > :39:41.lose his legs, has driven a hand It was the first time he'd driven

:39:42. > :39:47.since the accident 11 weeks ago. An online campaign went viral,

:39:48. > :39:58.raising almost ?1 million Isn't that brilliant? All morning

:39:59. > :40:02.we've been spending time with the very, very happy people sitting in

:40:03. > :40:09.the sunshine in the Wimbledon queue. One of the things we've been doing

:40:10. > :40:14.to keep them entertained is playing Game, Set, Mug. Good morning. You

:40:15. > :40:19.are volunteers for this morning and you haven't had much chance to

:40:20. > :40:27.practise. Very little time! Thoughts on technique's I'm thinking under

:40:28. > :40:31.arm. I've got three balls ready. Have you watched Andy Murray do his?

:40:32. > :40:38.That's interesting. He was ready with three balls ready to go. One

:40:39. > :40:43.word of advice, try the under arm first and then maybe try overarm.

:40:44. > :40:52.That's all I'm saying. Start the clock, 30 seconds. Starting, three,

:40:53. > :41:00.two, one, go! Come on! No, no, not one. Try over! Nearly! I think you

:41:01. > :41:10.are doing slightly better. A little bit further. A bit of height. Keep

:41:11. > :41:19.going. Right on the camera! Ten seconds left. Ten seconds. Come on.

:41:20. > :41:31.Over arm! Bounced off the edge! Try over arm! No! Stop! How do you think

:41:32. > :41:36.you did? Very disappointing. Let's go and look. Are you ready? Let's

:41:37. > :41:45.look inside. You announce into the world. How many? Zero! Not very

:41:46. > :41:53.impressive... Absolutely nothing. Do you know how many Andy Murray got

:41:54. > :42:02.in? 14! It was over arm. I did give you a little tip. Can I say overarm?

:42:03. > :42:10.I am saying it to everybody! Thank you so much for trying. That's

:42:11. > :42:15.really good. Trying that live on BBC One for the first time ever, very

:42:16. > :42:19.brave. I do want to say anything about it

:42:20. > :42:23.because we will be challenged to do it, you know that.

:42:24. > :42:27.I'm going for the Andy Murray technique, just overarm.

:42:28. > :42:31.Are you going to practise beforehand?

:42:32. > :42:32.I just going to go in there, feeling strong.

:42:33. > :42:35.You might have heard of Snapchat and you'll almost certainly have

:42:36. > :42:37.seen the selfies people take with those special effects filters.

:42:38. > :42:52.But how would you feel if people on the app could see exactly

:42:53. > :42:54.where your children were when they posted a picture?

:42:55. > :42:58.The app has introduced a new feature which allows users to track each

:42:59. > :43:04.Called SnapMaps, it's raising concerns among parents and child

:43:05. > :43:18.As you go out on the map, there's Sally in Wimbledon, and you can find

:43:19. > :43:24.other people on your Snapchat around the world. We have one of our

:43:25. > :43:28.correspondence in Bangkok. It's really specific. You can find not

:43:29. > :43:30.only what room of the house they are written, you can see whether they

:43:31. > :43:34.are awake or asleep. -- are in. It's a feature that had Loose Women

:43:35. > :43:37.presenter and parent, Nadia Sawalha, worried

:43:38. > :43:47.when she spoke to her daughter I have this friend that I speak to

:43:48. > :43:51.in Florida. She is my age and when I first got SnapMaps I was looking

:43:52. > :43:55.around to see what it was like and I could see she was sitting down in

:43:56. > :44:01.Florida, at high school. You can also see what school people are out.

:44:02. > :44:05.This is so dangerous. I think this is so dangerous and a step too far.

:44:06. > :44:09.I'm completely horrified by this. What do you think? Am I being an

:44:10. > :44:14.overprotective mother? What do you think? Are your kids using it? Digi

:44:15. > :44:24.no it existed, because I didn't ready four hours ago! -- did you

:44:25. > :44:31.know. Good morning. We've spoken of it about it, but what exactly is it

:44:32. > :44:37.letting people see and do? There are two things SnapMap does. Where there

:44:38. > :44:42.is a popular event at the concert, people can post publicly, so you

:44:43. > :44:46.choose to post publicly, and then something comes up to say that lots

:44:47. > :44:49.of people are posting from there and you can see the public videos and

:44:50. > :44:53.pictures that people have shared. The second thing that people are

:44:54. > :44:57.more concerned about is that you can share your location with people on

:44:58. > :45:01.your friends list. If you added me as a friend and I've added you, then

:45:02. > :45:06.we can choose to share our location and see exactly on the map where we

:45:07. > :45:12.are. Do you need to opt in, or is it automatic? Do you have to say that

:45:13. > :45:16.you want to share your location? You do have to opt in, but when they

:45:17. > :45:21.launched it they said there was a new feature and it pops up on your

:45:22. > :45:25.phone and you cut through and by that point you have opted in and you

:45:26. > :45:27.have to go back and take yourself off. So a lot of people are finding

:45:28. > :45:37.that accidentally opted in. You've got a son and you looked at

:45:38. > :45:41.his phone yesterday, was he opted into this? He was. Were you

:45:42. > :45:46.concerned? I didn't know anything about it, I had a conversation and

:45:47. > :45:50.found out about it and I thought, well, let's not get hysterical,

:45:51. > :45:54.let's have a look at it from both sides. I started to research it and

:45:55. > :46:00.was a little bit worried about the fact you can be pinpointed to any

:46:01. > :46:06.area, obviously there's predators, bullies in our communities, you want

:46:07. > :46:13.to make sure they're safe. For me I just bought its great for people who

:46:14. > :46:20.are aware of all of the safeguards on it and if you can put all those

:46:21. > :46:25.in place it could be quite good fun. But there's more vulnerable people

:46:26. > :46:30.in the community who could be... They may not know about the

:46:31. > :46:36.safeguarding aspects and who also maybe think it's a bit fun and we

:46:37. > :46:39.could be pulled into different areas where you wouldn't expect your

:46:40. > :46:44.children to go. From the point of view of your son, he can see where

:46:45. > :46:48.his schoolmates are? They have Snapchat for their class, they keep

:46:49. > :46:53.in contact and talk about homework, if they go for a trip for school,

:46:54. > :46:58.they talk about what they need and if they go out socially they could

:46:59. > :47:04.post pictures of what they're up to. Is the quite tech savvy? When he

:47:05. > :47:09.talked about safety concerns you knew about it? He was telling me. He

:47:10. > :47:13.was telling me about Snap Maps, someone told him about it, one of

:47:14. > :47:18.his friends at school, we went through the safety side of it and I

:47:19. > :47:24.was saying, look, this could happen and he was saying it's fine, if you

:47:25. > :47:31.do this, put ghost mode on, that's fine and nobody can see me. I kind

:47:32. > :47:38.of thought, if somebody hasn't got the settings on, the safety

:47:39. > :47:45.settings, can they see William? He was saying to me, no, they can't, I

:47:46. > :47:52.have to add people in and be able to... Allow them to see him? The

:47:53. > :47:58.thing is, friends and social media aren't necessarily all your friends,

:47:59. > :48:01.that's one of the concerns? That's right, we all have people on our

:48:02. > :48:05.friends list either on Facebook or Twitter that we don't know and

:48:06. > :48:08.Snapchat doesn't give you a discovery feature. I could add you

:48:09. > :48:13.as a public figure and followed Justin Bieber. The thing about the

:48:14. > :48:17.location sharing is you only see the location if you follow each other

:48:18. > :48:23.back, but if you've added people you haven't met in real life, which is

:48:24. > :48:26.possible... It's a shame to have X amount of people following you and

:48:27. > :48:31.following them back, that could be another issue? The other thing is

:48:32. > :48:35.why does it need to be so accurate? If they have posted in a house it

:48:36. > :48:42.tells you exactly where they live. Even the room? It uses GPS so it is

:48:43. > :48:46.very accurate, other apps let you share your location even on a

:48:47. > :48:50.specific case, on WhatsApp you can say I'm here and share your location

:48:51. > :48:54.with one person, and you can check into things like a concert, they are

:48:55. > :49:01.more of a vague location. Snapchat says it has to be super accurate so

:49:02. > :49:04.if you're at a festival together you can pinpoint where your friends are,

:49:05. > :49:08.that's why they've made it so accurate but it is in so make sure

:49:09. > :49:13.on your settings you're not opted in if you don't want to be. Later today

:49:14. > :49:16.we are going to load up a guide on our Facebook and Twitter BBC

:49:17. > :49:21.Breakfast accounts on how to load up ghost mode and how to opt in and

:49:22. > :49:26.out, you didn't go for hysterical mum, you went for a conversation?

:49:27. > :49:31.You have to look at it and from William's point of view, he is very

:49:32. > :49:35.savvy, he is aware of things that happen around him and the school

:49:36. > :49:40.have been very good, they have introduced people who have given

:49:41. > :49:44.them talks about online safety and we do as well. I think parents do

:49:45. > :49:50.have to have a look and see where the children are. It always seems

:49:51. > :49:51.like catch up, doesn't it? ! Thank you very much indeed.

:49:52. > :49:55.We are going to catch up with lovely Carol, court number two, good

:49:56. > :50:07.morning? Good morning. Good morning. First on court number two today is

:50:08. > :50:16.Heather Watson playing serviced over at 11:30am. Expect all these seats

:50:17. > :50:21.to be packed. -- Sevestova. The grand capacity is 39,000 people.

:50:22. > :50:26.That will vary depending on the number of games played and possibly

:50:27. > :50:30.due to the weather as well and during Wimbledon fortnight, 674

:50:31. > :50:33.matches actually take place so that's a whopping big number. If

:50:34. > :50:39.you're coming down today it's going to stay dry, it will be hot and

:50:40. > :50:43.humid, it's already 17 here, we expect the temperature to be in the

:50:44. > :50:48.high 20s or maybe even 30 with a light breezes to don't forget to

:50:49. > :50:53.slip, slapped and slop, good advice for most of the UK! -- slip, slapped

:50:54. > :50:57.and slop. For the next few days it will be warm and humid but for

:50:58. > :51:02.southern areas it will be hot. We start at 9am in the south, a lot of

:51:03. > :51:07.sunshine with the temperature romping up quickly now. Through the

:51:08. > :51:11.Midlands, northern England, a bit more cloud, a weak weather front

:51:12. > :51:14.decaying but still producing some outbreaks of Brazil, patchy light

:51:15. > :51:23.rain, especially in north-east England and some coastal and hill

:51:24. > :51:26.fog -- outbreaks of drizzle. Only five Celsius at the moment in

:51:27. > :51:29.Northern Scotland but a beautiful start in Northern Ireland with the

:51:30. > :51:34.temperature climbing. In north Wales, a bit more cloud at the

:51:35. > :51:39.moment but that will thin and break, south Wales and south-west England,

:51:40. > :51:41.sunshine. The outside chance of a thundery shower in south-west

:51:42. > :51:47.England this morning but that is all, as we drift from

:51:48. > :51:50.Gloucestershire to London, we are back in the sunshine and

:51:51. > :51:55.temperatures steadily climbing. Also fresher on the coast. As we go

:51:56. > :52:00.through the day, the weather front draped across northern England will

:52:01. > :52:03.tend to weaken, especially from the west and north-west England and

:52:04. > :52:07.south-west Scotland will brighten up to see sunshine. South-west Scotland

:52:08. > :52:11.and north-east England will hang on to more cloud pegging back

:52:12. > :52:16.temperatures. Here we're looking at 13 or 14. In Northern Ireland and

:52:17. > :52:21.Scotland, 18 or 19. For the rest of England and Wales, 24 to 30. 30 is

:52:22. > :52:25.more likely in the south-east. Through the evening and overnight,

:52:26. > :52:29.we start to import thunderstorms across the English Channel across

:52:30. > :52:33.southern counties. At the same time we have a weather front producing

:52:34. > :52:36.rain coming in across western Scotland and Northern Ireland. For

:52:37. > :52:41.some it will be another sticky night with overnight lows of between ten

:52:42. > :52:43.and 18. Tomorrow the rain in Northern Ireland and western

:52:44. > :52:47.Scotland rattles through quickly, late in the day another weather

:52:48. > :52:52.front comes in replacing the rain in the west but it's the thunderstorms

:52:53. > :52:56.across England continuing to migrate northwards, some of them will be

:52:57. > :53:01.hunting is and also they will have hail embedded in them but some will

:53:02. > :53:06.miss them all together and we will have another sunny, dry and sticky

:53:07. > :53:11.day, still the potential tomorrow in the south with highs of 30. As we

:53:12. > :53:15.head into Friday, a lot of dry weather around, the thunderstorm

:53:16. > :53:18.risk diminishes, a few showers in the north-east of England and by the

:53:19. > :53:22.end of the day another weather front bringing rain in Northern Ireland.

:53:23. > :53:28.Fresher for most except in the south where we hang on to high levels of

:53:29. > :53:31.humidity and the high temperatures. Really will be high temperatures!

:53:32. > :53:34.Some people will love it. Thanks very much, Carol!

:53:35. > :53:41.The weather looks amazing at the moment! It has just been wonderful.

:53:42. > :53:46.Every morning... Do you think there's going to be rain? Pharrell

:53:47. > :53:50.Williams Knost. At some stage the weather is going to turn -- Carol

:53:51. > :53:52.will no. It's ten years to the day

:53:53. > :53:55.since the cost of borrowing Since then the direction

:53:56. > :53:58.has been downwards Ben's been looking at the impact

:53:59. > :54:01.on borrowers, savers The Bank of England's Monetary

:54:02. > :54:06.Policy Committee meets every month In recent years rates

:54:07. > :54:14.peaked at just under 6%, with the last increase

:54:15. > :54:20.on this day in 2007. Sarah Coles is a personal

:54:21. > :54:30.finance expert with AOL. Ten years, they stayed at 0.5% for

:54:31. > :54:36.so long and then the cut after the Brexit vote to just 0.25 %,

:54:37. > :54:40.brilliant news for borrowers but terrible for savers? Yes, if you

:54:41. > :54:46.look at the rates in 2007 you could get 6% as a Best Buy rate and now

:54:47. > :54:49.you're looking at 1.25%, for those people trying to live off their

:54:50. > :54:56.savings, especially pensioners, it's been difficult. This has been a

:54:57. > :55:01.really dangerous and difficult time. It shows on one hand and some people

:55:02. > :55:05.will win and other people are going to lose, some would say it's the

:55:06. > :55:09.price some have had to pay to keep the economy on an even keel because

:55:10. > :55:14.the Bank of England cut rates to try to keep the economy ticking over, it

:55:15. > :55:18.was likened to putting the economy on a life-support machine by

:55:19. > :55:22.slashing rates so low, is that a fair assertion, some are going to

:55:23. > :55:26.lose but it's the price we pay for keeping the economy going? It's

:55:27. > :55:29.difficult because borrowing becomes more affordable, it's the era of

:55:30. > :55:33.cheap money and people have made ends meet better because mortgage

:55:34. > :55:40.payments have come down. Looking at typical rates, 2007 was 5.8% for a

:55:41. > :55:44.typical mortgage, now its 2.6% so a big saving for people. The problem

:55:45. > :55:48.comes when you're trying to drive an economy through borrowing, people

:55:49. > :55:53.then just load up more on debt. If you look at borrowing at the moment,

:55:54. > :55:58.there's ?1.3 trillion of mortgage debt compared to ?1.1 trillion in

:55:59. > :56:02.2007, consumer borrowing has gone up as well so we have loaded up on debt

:56:10. > :56:13.rate rise in their adult life and then they will find borrowing more

:56:14. > :56:18.expensive. Can they deal with it? What about the psychology for people

:56:19. > :56:21.who have never seen a rate rise? We assume money will be cheap for a

:56:22. > :56:25.long time but there's very little incentive to save. This is why

:56:26. > :56:29.savings rates have fallen to record lows because people don't see any

:56:34. > :56:37.England, and why they are talking about making the changes now, is so

:56:38. > :56:41.they can make changes slowly so people get used to small rises. One

:56:42. > :56:45.of the other changes they have been trying to do is make sure people who

:56:46. > :56:50.borrowed money now are making much more stringent tests to afford them,

:56:51. > :56:53.but psychologically it will seem strange to people, especially like

:00:44. > :00:46.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. Anger and frustration,

:00:47. > :00:48.as the government deadline to rehouse all Grenfell

:00:49. > :00:51.survivors nearby passes. The council says everyone has been

:00:52. > :00:54.made an offer but families say Most remain in hotels

:00:55. > :01:08.three weeks on. It doesn't feel like home. I miss my

:01:09. > :01:09.room. My daughter, she's not... She's losing her focus, because this

:01:10. > :01:13.is not her place. And at another angry meeting

:01:14. > :01:15.with the police last night - residents say their questions

:01:16. > :01:23.still aren't being answered. Whatever it is, we want to know

:01:24. > :01:34.exactly what it is, do not hide anything.

:01:35. > :01:38.Good morning, it's Wednesday 5th July.

:01:39. > :01:40.Also this morning, victims of stalking and harassment

:01:41. > :01:43.are being put at risk, because of failings

:01:44. > :01:45.by police and prosecutors - a new report blames poor

:01:46. > :01:50.investigations and a lack of legal protection.

:01:51. > :01:53.An average debt of more than ?50,000 for university students in England -

:01:54. > :02:03.a new report says they'll be paying it off into their 50s.

:02:04. > :02:09.I will talk about that and also have news that it is ten years to the day

:02:10. > :02:12.since interest rates fell to their record lows, but why, and what does

:02:13. > :02:18.it mean to the economy? I'll have the details. Good morning from the

:02:19. > :02:22.Wimbledon queue, some of these lucky people might be able to see Andy

:02:23. > :02:26.Murray play on centre court later on, after two of his main rivals

:02:27. > :02:29.suggested yesterday there should be a change in the rules, after both

:02:30. > :02:35.their opponents retired through injury. And Mark Cavendish is out of

:02:36. > :02:39.the Tour de France. He broke his shoulder in a collision with a world

:02:40. > :02:43.champion, Peter Sagan, who has been disqualified from the race. And I am

:02:44. > :02:46.inside Wimbledon this morning where the sun is beating down, the

:02:47. > :02:50.temperature is already 18 Celsius and it will get hotter, in fact the

:02:51. > :02:54.forecast for most of us today is a dry run with some sunshine, hot and

:02:55. > :02:58.humid in the South. The exceptions across the north of England and

:02:59. > :03:01.southern Scotland, where there is a band of cloud and some patchy, light

:03:02. > :03:04.rain will improve through the day from the West. A full weather report

:03:05. > :03:10.from 8:15am. Most of the families

:03:11. > :03:14.who lost their homes in the devastating Grenfell Tower

:03:15. > :03:17.fire are still living in hotels - despite government pledges

:03:18. > :03:19.to rehouse them all by today. Officials say everyone has been made

:03:20. > :03:21.an offer of temporary accommodation but lawyers for the families say

:03:22. > :03:23.many are unsuitable. There was also anger

:03:24. > :03:26.at a meeting with police and the Westminster Coroner last

:03:27. > :03:28.night, where residents demanded to know why

:03:29. > :03:30.there have been no arrests. This was the first opportunity

:03:31. > :03:38.for families to put their questions directly to police and

:03:39. > :03:40.the Westminster coroner. One reason this private meeting

:03:41. > :03:45.lasted more than 3.5 hours. It's understood relatives were told

:03:46. > :03:51.in graphic detail the challenge that forensic teams are facing in even

:03:52. > :03:54.trying to find DNA, which could They say the information

:03:55. > :03:58.they are getting isn't good enough. We personally asked,

:03:59. > :04:02.where is our family? We want to know, is our families'

:04:03. > :04:04.bodies still there? Whatever it is, we want to know

:04:05. > :04:09.exactly what it is, And the answers that

:04:10. > :04:15.were coming back were, "We don't know, we don't know,

:04:16. > :04:19.we don't know." Today is the deadline set

:04:20. > :04:22.by Theresa May to rehouse the 158 families made homeless

:04:23. > :04:24.by the disaster. According to the Grenfell response

:04:25. > :04:27.team, that target has been met, with 139 formal offers made,

:04:28. > :04:33.but just nine have been accepted. with 139 formal offers made,

:04:34. > :04:36.but just 14 have been accepted. Survivors say most

:04:37. > :04:46.of the accommodation My daughter, she's not... She's

:04:47. > :04:51.losing her focus, because this is not her place. They need something

:04:52. > :04:52.suitable for them, something with dignity, that's what they are

:04:53. > :04:55.looking for. Three weeks after the tragedy,

:04:56. > :04:57.police still maintain their investigation will be

:04:58. > :04:59.exhaustive and will bring the answers that the families

:05:00. > :05:12.desperately deserve, Speaking to this programme early on,

:05:13. > :05:14.a spokeswoman for the Grenfell response team said the council would

:05:15. > :05:22.continue to find homes for all residents. When you are dealing with

:05:23. > :05:26.158 families, of which only 14 have accepted the current temporary

:05:27. > :05:29.association, you have two factor in it goes at the pace of each

:05:30. > :05:33.individual family and that is the important point. That is why you

:05:34. > :05:36.can't put a timescale on it, because it is not about numbers and not

:05:37. > :05:40.about rushing people to meet targets. It is about understanding

:05:41. > :05:44.the devastating impact on these families, and that each family has

:05:45. > :05:47.to have wraparound support to make the right decisions and get to the

:05:48. > :05:51.right position in order to be to help them move forward.

:05:52. > :05:55.Victims of harassment and stalking in England and Wales are being left

:05:56. > :05:58.at risk because of failings by police and prosecutors.

:05:59. > :06:00.Two watchdogs found that crimes weren't being recorded,

:06:01. > :06:02.investigations were poorly conducted and legal protection wasn't

:06:27. > :06:51.The rationing of NHS treatments like hip, knee and cataract operations,

:06:52. > :06:51.as well as mental health services, has increased significantly in

:06:52. > :06:57.England over the past four years. Growing financial pressure

:06:58. > :06:59.and increased demand for services has led some areas to withdraw

:07:00. > :07:01.funding for some procedures, according

:07:02. > :07:03.to the British Medical Journal. It's leading to what

:07:04. > :07:05.some doctors describe Here's our health correspondent,

:07:06. > :07:09.Dominic Hughes. A growing and ageing population is

:07:10. > :07:12.placing increasing demands on the NHS, that in turn is ramping up the

:07:13. > :07:14.pressure on finances, so, to save money in some areas, funding for

:07:15. > :07:17.commentary mince is being withdrawn. Doctors say health leaders must be

:07:18. > :07:24.honest with patients about the tough choices they are having to make. The

:07:25. > :07:27.NHS is seriously struggling financially, and that is because of

:07:28. > :07:31.a decade of underinvestment by the government. The year after year we

:07:32. > :07:37.have seen a lack of investment, so local areas are having to make these

:07:38. > :07:42.really difficult decisions, and ultimately, in many areas, rationing

:07:43. > :07:47.services. Where funding has been withdrawn, GPs can make individual

:07:48. > :07:50.requests on a case-by-case basis. A BMJ analysis as overall these have

:07:51. > :07:56.increased by 47% in the past four years. There has also been a big

:07:57. > :07:59.rise in requests for hip and knee operations over the same time

:08:00. > :08:04.period, and the number of cataract operations for which Sun -- funding

:08:05. > :08:09.has been sought has also gone up. In England, decisions on what services

:08:10. > :08:11.the fund are made by local clinical commissioning groups, the national

:08:12. > :08:16.body that represents them says that given a limited budget, they are

:08:17. > :08:20.forced to make difficult choices to balance the needs of the individual

:08:21. > :08:23.against those of the wider population, but doctors and health

:08:24. > :08:27.campaigners say budget pressures are now creating a postcode lottery for

:09:17. > :09:19.well into your 50s that these are the figures from the Institute for

:09:20. > :09:25.Fiscal Studies, suggesting that with such a debt burden, having graduated

:09:26. > :09:29.with a good job even, people will be paying well into their 50s. They are

:09:30. > :09:33.great that if you take out a loan about ?45,000 over three or four

:09:34. > :09:36.years of your university career, you will pay about ?51,000 back by the

:09:37. > :09:40.time you have added up all the interest. It also points out the

:09:41. > :09:43.interest rate charged on that loan is pretty sky-high, just over 6%,

:09:44. > :09:47.and if you compare that in what we pay on things like mortgages and

:09:48. > :09:51.normal loans on the open market, the Bank of England base rate of growth

:09:52. > :09:53.at a record low of a quarter of 1%, so they say there is a big

:09:54. > :09:58.difference, students are being hit with these extra charges. We should

:09:59. > :10:02.savour the universities it has meant more money, they have been able to

:10:03. > :10:06.invest more per student, they have been able to invest in universities

:10:07. > :10:12.up and down the country. This applies to students in England. At a

:10:13. > :10:15.really worrying thought about how long students will be burdened with

:10:16. > :10:20.the step and if and when they are able to pay it back. They point out

:10:21. > :10:24.you can only start paying it back when you are earning over ?21,000 a

:10:25. > :10:28.year, that threshold has not changed, that has not moved in line

:10:29. > :10:31.with inflation, so as soon as you hit ?21,000 in earnings, you start

:10:32. > :10:34.paying it back, and as they point out, that means you could be paying

:10:35. > :10:38.it back well back into that your 50s. On that happy news... It is ten

:10:39. > :10:54.past eight this morning. Said self restraint was a choice

:10:55. > :10:59.that could change at any time. For the latest, let's speak to our Seoul

:11:00. > :11:03.correspondent, Steve Evans. Every time there was a missile test, there

:11:04. > :11:10.are raised tensions, what do you make of the latest events? Raised

:11:11. > :11:15.tension as you say, quite obviously a war of words, no obvious

:11:16. > :11:21.diplomatic way out, Kim Jong-un is saying the missile test, which was

:11:22. > :11:26.obviously successful, was a gift to America on American Independence

:11:27. > :11:30.Day. The military officers here are saying peace is a choice, and we

:11:31. > :11:33.could choose -- choose the other way. That is the gist of what they

:11:34. > :11:38.are saying. It is obviously a tense situation. I don't think it is the

:11:39. > :11:47.famed red line yet, where Donald Trump said back in January it won't

:11:48. > :11:56.happen. Ie Kill, a -- a missile capable of hitting the US. They have

:11:57. > :12:00.it -- a missile that can hit Alaska, we don't know if it is accurate but

:12:01. > :12:05.not, it won't hit Seattle or Los Angeles. We're not quite there yet.

:12:06. > :12:10.But every step of the way, and this is a big step, makes the world more

:12:11. > :12:14.dangerous, absolutely no doubt about that. Steve Evans, thank you, from

:12:15. > :12:17.Seoul. Bijan Ebrahimi was brutally murdered

:12:18. > :12:20.by his neighbour in 2013 - kicked to death and set alight

:12:21. > :12:25.on his estate in Bristol. In the years up to his death, he'd

:12:26. > :12:28.repeatedly called police to tell them that he was being racially

:12:29. > :12:31.abused by some of his neighbours Now an investigation into his death

:12:32. > :12:35.by the Independent Police Complaints Commission

:12:36. > :12:37.has found that the Avon and Someset Constabulary

:12:38. > :12:38.systematically failed We'll speak to IPCC

:12:39. > :12:43.Commissioner Jan Williams in a minute, after this report

:12:44. > :12:45.from our correspondent Jon Kay. He told police dozens of times

:12:46. > :12:56.that his life was in danger. What part of 'be quiet'

:12:57. > :13:00.do you not understand? Now a report says that over several

:13:01. > :13:05.years, the Iranian refugee was repeatedly failed by Avon

:13:06. > :13:07.and Somerset police, treated In 2013, he was beaten to death

:13:08. > :13:14.by a neighbour outside his flat The Independent Police

:13:15. > :13:20.Complaints Commission says there were systematic failures

:13:21. > :13:23.in the way he was dealt with. Today's report runs to hundreds

:13:24. > :13:26.of pages and it says this whole case has laid bare what it calls

:13:27. > :13:28.the disrespect, the prejudice and even contempt with which some

:13:29. > :13:31.officers and staff treated Bijan Ebrahimi in the days before

:13:32. > :13:40.he was murdered here. Reading that report and just coming

:13:41. > :13:43.to terms with what happened He always thought that he is in

:13:44. > :13:51.a country that police And he couldn't see

:13:52. > :13:58.anything beyond that. Last year, PC Kevin Duffy

:13:59. > :14:02.and community support officer Andrew Passmore were jailed,

:14:03. > :14:04.after being convicted PC's Leanne Winter and Helen Harris

:14:05. > :14:14.ere cleared by the jury, but were later sacked

:14:15. > :14:16.by a misconduct hearing. We accept that we failed

:14:17. > :14:18.Bijan Ebrahimi at his time of greatest need and throughout that

:14:19. > :14:20.time, he was respectful and he had confidence

:14:21. > :14:23.and trust in us, the police. And we let him down

:14:24. > :14:30.and for that, we are sorry. Avon and Somerset Police say

:14:31. > :14:32.they have improved the way that they deal with vulnerable

:14:33. > :14:35.people as a result of this case. Bijan's sisters are still waiting

:14:36. > :14:38.for the local council's report. Let's speak to the IPCC's

:14:39. > :14:51.Commissioner, Jan Williams, now. Morning to you, Jan. Listening to

:14:52. > :14:55.John's report, this is so many serious police failings, aren't

:14:56. > :15:03.there? Yes, the magnitude of this failure is very, very clear, and the

:15:04. > :15:07.evidence in our report shows that systematic, consistently, over at

:15:08. > :15:14.least a seven year period, even and Somerset police let vision in pretty

:15:15. > :15:18.media down. They never identified him as a vulnerable man who was a

:15:19. > :15:29.victim of abuse and who really needed their protection and their

:15:30. > :15:35.support. -- Bijan Ebrahimi. When you look at those calls, 40 of the calls

:15:36. > :15:42.were not actually recorded as crimes by the police. It is systematic

:15:43. > :15:46.failure over a number of years. It is a systematic failure, and it is

:15:47. > :15:50.extremely hard to understand, because the nature of those calls

:15:51. > :15:56.were such that Bijan Ebrahimi was self identifying himself as a victim

:15:57. > :16:02.of race hate crime. He was reporting criminal damage. He was reporting

:16:03. > :16:07.his fears of threats to his life. What he found instead was that he

:16:08. > :16:12.was labelled as the perpetrator, who was labelled as a liar, a time

:16:13. > :16:17.waster, and attention sicker, and his neighbour's counter allegations

:16:18. > :16:19.were always accepted at face value, even if there was absolutely no

:16:20. > :16:25.evidence underpinning them. So there is no doubt that those officers and

:16:26. > :16:31.staff who interacted with Mr Ebrahimi discriminated against him

:16:32. > :16:38.consistently, to his detriment, and without rational explanation.

:16:39. > :16:44.Is that what you mean when you say them are hallmarks of racial bias?

:16:45. > :16:50.There were remarks that could be construed as that. Quite clear he

:16:51. > :16:54.was discriminated against. The judge in the criminal proceedings and the

:16:55. > :16:58.misconduct panel did not find evidence officers were

:16:59. > :17:06.discriminating against him because of racial bias. The family believes

:17:07. > :17:10.he was a victim of race hate crime. There is evidence to suggest it is

:17:11. > :17:18.open to interpretation. The motives behind the officers' behaviour is

:17:19. > :17:23.not clear that respect. What is overwhelmingly clear is that they

:17:24. > :17:29.failed time and time again to identify him as a victim,

:17:30. > :17:34.anti-recognise his vulnerability, and to give him protection and

:17:35. > :17:41.support. He never had the protection and support no matter how many times

:17:42. > :17:45.he asked for it. The important question is what recommendations

:17:46. > :17:50.have you made, and what lessons have to B and hopefully will be learned?

:17:51. > :17:55.I have made a number of recommendations to Avon and Somerset

:17:56. > :18:00.which have wider applications. Important that the leadership of

:18:01. > :18:03.Avon and Somerset Police and police forces widely make it clear to

:18:04. > :18:09.officers and staff that discrimination of any kind, bias of

:18:10. > :18:10.any kind, conscious or unconscious has absolutely no place in modern

:18:11. > :18:16.policing. You're watching

:22:46. > :22:49.cleaning behind her. It was one of the key promises

:22:50. > :22:52.from Theresa May in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy -

:22:53. > :22:55.that all survivors would be rehoused Despite that pledge only nine offers

:22:56. > :22:59.have been accepted and many families So, three weeks after that

:23:00. > :23:04.devastating fire, why are so many people still not living in a place

:23:05. > :23:06.they can call home? Frankie McCamley went to meet one

:23:07. > :23:09.man and his 10-year-old daughter Sid-Ali and his daughter Hayam

:23:10. > :23:23.and his wife lived on the 15th They've now been living

:23:24. > :23:27.in a hotel for three weeks. It's not comfortable and it

:23:28. > :23:34.doesn't feel like home. I miss my room and all the memories

:23:35. > :23:39.I had, my baby albums, She's losing her focus

:23:40. > :23:50.because this isn't her place, I find it hard to sleep,

:23:51. > :23:57.I have nightmares about if it happens again, if I wake up

:23:58. > :24:05.and I see fire in the building. I feel I have no power to take away

:24:06. > :24:15.all this pain from her. If I could, I would, I would take

:24:16. > :24:20.all the pain and put it on me. The families say they have received

:24:21. > :24:24.calls of support from local services but what they really want

:24:25. > :24:30.is for someone to visit them. The people in my building,

:24:31. > :24:35.they were very close to me and they were like family and seeing

:24:36. > :24:50.them go wasn't good. As the family struggle to come

:24:51. > :24:55.to terms with what happened, they say they have been offered

:24:56. > :25:00.a two bedroom flat just over a mile away, but Sid-Ali says it's too far

:25:01. > :25:03.from Hayam's school and it's They need to see us as a victim

:25:04. > :25:12.and treat us with dignity, we're not Three weeks they haven't

:25:13. > :25:25.found a solution. The council says it's made 139

:25:26. > :25:28.offers of accommodation to Grenfell Tower residents,

:25:29. > :25:31.nine of which have been accepted. It says the three-week target

:25:32. > :25:35.of offering temporary homes to those affected has been met,

:25:36. > :25:40.but for this family the money and support they've been offered has

:25:41. > :25:43.simply not been good enough. They're putting a price on us,

:25:44. > :25:47.they give ?5,000 each and ?500, Have you got any faith

:25:48. > :26:05.in the services any more? No, I have faith in the residents,

:26:06. > :26:08.I have faith in the community, I have faith in the people

:26:09. > :26:11.who live their lives... My faith is there,

:26:12. > :26:25.my faith is there. Then update on the accommodation

:26:26. > :26:30.numbers, we spoke to a person from the Grenfell Tower 's response team.

:26:31. > :26:37.Of the 139 formal offers, 14 have been accepted. Given what they said

:26:38. > :26:43.about somebody not visiting, she said she would follow that up, and

:26:44. > :26:51.find out why that may be the case. You can watch that interview and the

:30:45. > :30:47.fire are still living in hotels - despite government pledges

:30:48. > :30:49.to rehouse them all by today. Officials say everyone has been made

:30:50. > :30:52.an offer of temporary accommodation but lawyers for the families say

:30:53. > :30:59.many are unsuitable. There was also anger

:31:00. > :31:01.at a meeting with police and the Westminster Coroner last

:31:02. > :31:03.night, where residents demanded to know why

:31:04. > :31:08.there have been no arrests. Speaking to Breakfast in the last

:31:09. > :31:11.half hour a spokeswoman for the Grenfell Response Team said

:31:12. > :31:13.the council would continue to try When you're dealing with 158

:31:14. > :31:21.families, of which only 14 have currently accepted the temporary

:31:22. > :31:24.accommodation, you have to actually factor in that it goes at the pace

:31:25. > :31:29.of each individual family. That's the important point,

:31:30. > :31:32.and that's why you can't It's not about numbers,

:31:33. > :31:35.and it's not about rushing It's about understanding

:31:36. > :31:40.the devastating impact on these families, and that each family has

:31:41. > :31:43.to have wraparound support in order to be able to make the right

:31:44. > :31:46.decisions and get to the right position in order to be able

:31:47. > :31:53.to help them move forward. Victims of harassment and stalking

:34:15. > :34:23.80th birthday of Spam. It was there to schoolchildren, Spam and chips,

:34:24. > :34:28.Spam and beans... We have a mixed relationship with this wonderful

:34:29. > :34:31.substance. 8 billion cans have been sold as a delicacy in some parts of

:34:32. > :34:35.the world and I'm sure you will remember, and if you don't, let's

:34:36. > :34:40.have a look at how it was immortalised in a Monty Python

:34:41. > :34:48.sketch. Have you got anything without Spam in it? Spam, sausage

:34:49. > :34:55.and egg doesn't have much Spam in it. I can't have Spam! Could I have

:34:56. > :35:17.egg, Bacon, Spam and sausage without the spam. I don't like Spam! # Spam,

:35:18. > :35:21.Spam, Spam... #. I've been told we have to try some. Thank you for all

:35:22. > :35:27.your lovely Spam recipes this morning. My favourite one was

:35:28. > :35:32.Bolognese with Spam. Someone said the perfect way to deal with Spam is

:35:33. > :35:41.to put it in cubes, feed it to the dog and then throw it in the bin.

:35:42. > :35:45.Are you struggling?! I'm with them! You're not going to be able to

:35:46. > :35:50.resist it on its 80th birthday! Magnificent! Did you not like it

:35:51. > :36:00.either? LAUGHTER I love it! Victoria Derbyshire is on BBC Two

:36:01. > :36:03.later this morning. Let's find out what they're

:36:04. > :36:12.covering on today's show. Good morning. Today we'll talk to a

:36:13. > :36:16.woman who says her life was stolen because she was stalked over a

:36:17. > :36:22.five-year period by her neighbour. She called the police 125 times. In

:36:23. > :36:25.the end her neighbour attacked her. He's since been convicted of

:36:26. > :36:30.attempted murder. But on the day a new report says victims of stalking

:36:31. > :36:39.are being failed by the police. Join us after Breakfast.

:36:40. > :36:43.Coming up here on Breakfast this morning.

:36:44. > :36:46.We'll be finding out how it feels to be pregnant in one

:36:47. > :36:49.of the remotest parts of the UK - where the nearest hospital

:36:50. > :36:53.Breakfast's had a glimpse into the life of one of Britain's

:36:54. > :36:55.most celebrated poets, as a new collection of his personal

:36:56. > :36:57.belongings reveals a surprising side to Philip Larkin.

:36:58. > :37:00.The comedian David Sedaris will be here to tell us how he went

:37:01. > :37:02.from working as a Christmas elf in Macy's department

:37:03. > :37:09.store to being described as the "the American Alan Bennett".

:37:10. > :37:21.Quite interestingly, he's been publishing his diaries. Shall we go

:37:22. > :37:26.back to Wimbledon? Sally is there and she's got all the sport. I know

:37:27. > :37:30.you've been mentioning this today, there's been quite a few complaints

:37:31. > :37:34.from those who have been to Wimbledon saying people are turning

:37:35. > :37:39.up just to get their money, they are retiring after a set, going home,

:37:40. > :37:43.collecting their ?35,000, even though they are injured and probably

:37:44. > :37:48.shouldn't be there in the first place. It's a really good point,

:37:49. > :37:53.it's all over the papers today. Everyone's been talking about it.

:37:54. > :37:57.You would imagine, if you had tickets and found out you were lucky

:37:58. > :38:03.enough to have tickets for Wimbledon on Centre Court on date two, you'd

:38:04. > :38:07.be really excited. You're going to see Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer.

:38:08. > :38:10.Actually for people yesterday on Centre Court there were two injury

:38:11. > :38:14.retirements which means they didn't see as much tennis as they were

:38:15. > :38:19.expecting. Those players who go into those matches, are they going in

:38:20. > :38:25.with an injury knowing they might need help? I don't know. As you say,

:38:26. > :38:31.here at Wimbledon if you make it into your first round match you get

:38:32. > :38:35.?35,000. What's the alternative? To do the honourable thing and suggest

:38:36. > :38:40.you're not fit enough and not play, or at least have a go? It's been a

:38:41. > :38:48.talking point this morning, that's for sure. Andy Murray taking on

:38:49. > :38:55.Dustin Brown today. They said it could be time to change the rules

:38:56. > :39:03.after yesterday. Klizan played for 40 minutes before his calf injury

:39:04. > :39:07.was too much. Roger Federer's match wasn't much longer. They joked in

:39:08. > :39:09.the locker room maybe they should play a practice session together

:39:10. > :39:13.because they had so little time on the grass.

:39:14. > :39:15.There was more controversy after Australian Bernard Tomic said

:39:16. > :39:17.he was "bored" during his straight-sets defeat

:39:18. > :39:21.He also admitted to using a medical time-out to try to slow down

:39:22. > :39:25.the match, which could earn him a fine.

:39:26. > :39:28.After going out in the first round for four years in a row,

:39:29. > :39:31.Kyle Edmund finally made it through to round two when he beat

:39:32. > :39:40.Alex Ward is standing next to me right now!

:39:41. > :39:42.And women's world number one Angelique Kerber is through,

:39:43. > :39:43.after beating American qualifier Irina Falconi.

:39:44. > :39:48.Kerber was runner up last year to Serena Williams.

:39:49. > :39:52.She walked out here onto Centre Court and those memories came back

:39:53. > :39:56.to her. I'm not surprised. Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de

:39:57. > :39:59.France after a crash at the end World champion Peter Sag-ANN

:40:00. > :40:02.was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:40:03. > :40:04.appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:40:05. > :40:09.and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one of

:40:10. > :40:16.the worst defeats in their history. Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:40:17. > :40:18.at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:40:19. > :40:21.team from Luxembourg Progres Niederkorn,

:40:22. > :40:22.losing 2-0 on the night, There are reports that

:40:23. > :40:25.Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney will return

:40:26. > :40:28.to his first club Everton this week. He's apparently been left out

:40:29. > :40:47.of United's preseason tour Wouldn't that be a thing? I remember

:40:48. > :40:54.interviewing him as a 16-year-old at Everton. Wouldn't be incredible, it

:40:55. > :40:58.would be like going home for him. I mentioned Alex Ward. Good morning.

:40:59. > :41:04.We mentioned your match yesterday. You were beaten by Kyle Edmund. But

:41:05. > :41:10.actually took the first set off him, you appeared at Wimbledon, and your

:41:11. > :41:13.mum was here to watch. It was her 60th birthday and we had a little

:41:14. > :41:20.invention or moment with her talking about how proud she was. The match

:41:21. > :41:24.yesterday was tough. I started off really well, got a break early and

:41:25. > :41:29.won the first set but he ran away a bit and I ran out of steam a bit. It

:41:30. > :41:34.was great playing on my mums 60th and a nice little hug after, gave

:41:35. > :41:37.her a present, she was happy. That's good because a little bird told me

:41:38. > :41:44.you don't ring her often enough, you need to call her more! OK, I'll try

:41:45. > :41:51.and improve that now! Life on the road for you is busy, isn't it, and

:41:52. > :41:57.it's tough? It is. We travel 30-35 weeks a year, all around the world.

:41:58. > :42:01.There's some tough places out there, it's a bit of a dogfight. For many

:42:02. > :42:06.people watching from the outside, they probably think you have this

:42:07. > :42:10.incredibly glamorous, fabulous tennis players life. What's the

:42:11. > :42:14.reality? I love playing professionally, it's a dream job but

:42:15. > :42:18.it can be tough. A lot of the time I'm travelling around, I haven't got

:42:19. > :42:24.a sponsor so I'm putting all of my prize money back into hotels and

:42:25. > :42:27.accommodation. It's a tough gig. In some places I heard that when you

:42:28. > :42:32.turn up at events, you have to put your stick on your car in the car

:42:33. > :42:36.park, pay your parking, it's not like turning up as a footballer at a

:42:37. > :42:40.stadium. If I haven't managed to learn to drive yet so I haven't got

:42:41. > :42:46.a car! I been putting all my money straight back into my tennis! I

:42:47. > :42:52.might be paying for the train. Thank you so much for coming to talk to

:42:53. > :42:58.us. Go and give your mum a nice lunch and! I'll go and ring her now!

:42:59. > :43:03.You need to call home more! Big match on Centre Court today. Andy

:43:04. > :43:08.Murray playing Dustin Brown. Let's talk to Jamie Baker. You are a

:43:09. > :43:14.proper, good old-fashioned school had friend of Andy Murray. How long

:43:15. > :43:18.have you known him? Since I was six or seven, since the first time he

:43:19. > :43:26.beat me 6-0 in an under ten event. He was a year younger and he still

:43:27. > :43:32.beat me 6-0! He was good very early. You've not had a terrible career

:43:33. > :43:36.yourself. I've done my best. Tennis is an amazing sport to do for a job.

:43:37. > :43:40.It was a real privilege to do something that started as a hobby

:43:41. > :43:44.and ends up being a profession. Still involved in the game here,

:43:45. > :43:49.talking about tennis over two weeks, better than sitting in an office!

:43:50. > :43:52.You're working for the BBC and coverage is all over BBC radio

:43:53. > :43:59.television and online. Let's talk about handy's match. Dustin Brown,

:44:00. > :44:04.we would expect Andy Murray to beat him but he is not easy to beat, is

:44:05. > :44:09.he? He is not easy. He's not your average tour player. Sometimes in

:44:10. > :44:13.modern-day tennis but could be a one-dimensional player. Dustin Brown

:44:14. > :44:18.is the opposite. He has great memories playing here, he beat

:44:19. > :44:22.Leyton Hewitt and Rafael Nadal. He will love the big occasion. There's

:44:23. > :44:25.a massive gap in rankings but Dustin Brown isn't going to be consistent

:44:26. > :44:30.every single week. Come second round of Wimbledon he's going to think, if

:44:31. > :44:33.I have a chance of troubling the big players it's going to be early in

:44:34. > :44:40.the tournament so what better time than now? Do you have any inside

:44:41. > :44:44.info about and the's hip? It is unusual for him not to be on a

:44:45. > :44:47.practice court for two or three days in a week building up to a grand

:44:48. > :44:52.slam. There was clearly something there. The draw he has, today will

:44:53. > :44:56.be a bit of the test. He has the opportunity to play his way into the

:44:57. > :45:00.event which is what he likes. Obviously there is a day of rest in

:45:01. > :45:04.between at as well as well as the middle Sunday. After the first week

:45:05. > :45:12.the issue will have had a chance to heal. So actually the draw could be

:45:13. > :45:19.in his favour? I think so. He's come up against and I though Carla vich

:45:20. > :45:23.-- he's not come up against an Ivo Karlovic touch. He's definitely

:45:24. > :45:27.playing against players he likes to play against. One of the things I

:45:28. > :45:31.heard him say either before or after the first round match the other day

:45:32. > :45:34.was, just walking this court sharpens his mind. All the memories

:45:35. > :45:41.come flooding back. This place gives him a left.

:45:42. > :45:52.Thank you both very much. Imagine being beaten by Andy Murray. What it

:45:53. > :45:57.straight sets? It was only set in the under tens. Beaten by Andy

:45:58. > :45:59.Murray in the under tens in Dunblane. Not many can say they have

:46:00. > :46:06.done that. If you're pregnant in a rural

:46:07. > :46:08.community, you might live hundreds of miles away

:46:09. > :46:12.from the nearest hospital. A new documentary follows a group

:46:13. > :46:15.of expectant mums living in the Scottish Highlands

:46:16. > :46:17.and the midwives who help them prepare for birth in one

:46:18. > :46:20.of the wildest corners In a minute, we'll speak to one

:46:21. > :46:25.of those mums and the midwife who looked after her,

:46:26. > :46:27.but first let's take You are with the magnificent Arthur,

:46:28. > :46:37.King Arthur! On the edge of the Atlantic Ocean,

:46:38. > :46:41.the midwives of Campbeltown provide their expertise to mums

:46:42. > :46:44.to be in villages and towns over this beautiful,

:46:45. > :46:55.but challenging terrain. Working here really

:46:56. > :47:00.appeals to midwife Becky. Basically, if you looked up the term

:47:01. > :47:09."midwife" in the dictionary, You're just with the women

:47:10. > :47:12.in the whole time. You become almost like part

:47:13. > :47:18.of their family as well. Bridie Grant and baby Arthur join us

:47:19. > :47:33.now, along with midwife Becky Brown. And midwife Becky Brown is here as

:47:34. > :47:41.well. Tell us about Arthur's arrival? It was an epic journey. It

:47:42. > :47:46.was. We had always intended to be able to have a local birth, but

:47:47. > :47:52.circumstances changed a bit. So we ended up going up the road to the

:47:53. > :47:57.hospital. But when you set up the road, it was hours up the road. Yes,

:47:58. > :48:04.the hospital was a four and a half hour journey by car. That was

:48:05. > :48:12.definitely intense. So you're already having contractions in the

:48:13. > :48:22.car and your husband is driving. It is easy to panic in that situation.

:48:23. > :48:34.Yes, I get quite calm my huff -- my husband was panicking. He thought I

:48:35. > :48:39.was going to give birth in the car. No., you live in a beautiful place,

:48:40. > :48:45.but it is remote. You are a midwife there. What are your main issues?

:48:46. > :48:48.Really, it is thinking ahead. We are constantly risk assessing our women

:48:49. > :48:53.from the moment we meet them. We know things can change at any point.

:48:54. > :49:02.So we are always faced with the weather. We constantly look at

:49:03. > :49:11.whether in case we need an air ambulance. Always on watch. He was

:49:12. > :49:22.so quiet when you first came an, and now he knows he is on telly. Arthur,

:49:23. > :49:26.you go for it. Without the access to doctors, the bond between mother and

:49:27. > :49:31.midwife must be strong. Absolutely. For us in the beginning, coming from

:49:32. > :49:35.the States, I was nervous about delivering some remotely. But

:49:36. > :49:39.throughout the whole pregnancy, because everything was going so well

:49:40. > :49:44.and I was getting so much support from the midwives, it felt like it

:49:45. > :49:52.was the right decision. You talked about possibly calling an air

:49:53. > :49:55.ambulance. Yes. If we need to get women up to Paisley quickly, it is

:49:56. > :50:00.the air ambulance we would choose because it is door-to-door, 20

:50:01. > :50:06.minutes. We sometimes have to wait an hour for the flight to come in,

:50:07. > :50:13.whereas if it is road ambulance, it can be three and a half hours,

:50:14. > :50:17.depending on traffic and other things. It is not the best of roads

:50:18. > :50:26.and an ambulance is not the most pleasant of journeys. So you would

:50:27. > :50:31.go with them? Sometimes we do. Again, risk assessment is the

:50:32. > :50:37.keyword. If a woman can go alone, we will send them. There are only a few

:50:38. > :50:42.of us in the town, so if a midwife goes out of the area, we could be

:50:43. > :50:56.short. Oh, Arthur! How do you feel about it? I suppose as well as that

:50:57. > :51:02.tight bond, there must be midwives who have been involved in families

:51:03. > :51:07.for generations. That's right. One of our midwives, Elspeth, recently

:51:08. > :51:16.retired. She was involved in the delivery of a baby as well as the

:51:17. > :51:23.delivery of the baby's dad. You don't get that in many places. It

:51:24. > :51:27.can feel isolating at times. You wish your mum or your sister was

:51:28. > :51:32.there to help out. But for such a small area, there is a lot going on.

:51:33. > :51:39.There are a lot of mums' groups and things to do, and there is always a

:51:40. > :51:44.nice walk on the beach. I take it the full Scotland kit that Arthur is

:51:45. > :51:50.in today... He is in his away jersey. Do you have an American one?

:51:51. > :51:54.He was in his American flag outfit for Independence Day yesterday. So

:51:55. > :52:01.the midwives are in charge. Is there a doctor as well? We have

:52:02. > :52:06.consultants at the end of a phone. We can phone 24 hours a day and get

:52:07. > :52:11.advice from the consultant unit in Paisley or the Queen Elizabeth in

:52:12. > :52:16.Glasgow. The journey sounds challenging, but I understand that

:52:17. > :52:20.on much part of it, there is no mobile phone signal. So when you are

:52:21. > :52:25.on that journey, you are under pressure. Yeah, I didn't realise

:52:26. > :52:29.that the time, but my husband thought we had made the wrong

:52:30. > :52:33.decision when there was no reception for about an hour of the journey. He

:52:34. > :52:40.just thought, gosh, where do we go from here? I am with you might

:52:41. > :52:45.Arthur, who needs socks?! But it was all right in the end. No need for

:52:46. > :52:53.your husband to panic. Arthur, one of your shoes is over here. I was

:52:54. > :52:54.not trying to steal it. You have spread yourself far and wide this

:52:55. > :52:56.morning. The Highland Midwife

:52:57. > :53:13.is on Channel 5 tonight at 8pm. Let's go back to Wimbledon, with

:53:14. > :53:20.Carol and Rufus the hawk. Yes, what a treat. And Imogen Davis.

:53:21. > :53:28.Delightful to see you, as it is to see Rufus. You're such a good boy.

:53:29. > :53:34.Rufus is ten years old. Yes, he has got used to it now. So he is a bit

:53:35. > :53:37.of an institution. What kind of routine does he have? We start here

:53:38. > :53:41.at five o'clock every morning during the championship, nice and early

:53:42. > :53:45.like yourselves. He patrolled the skies to check that there are none

:53:46. > :53:49.who will be chanting it to cause any disruption during the play. The

:53:50. > :54:02.pigeons like to eat the grass seed, so Rufus is here to protect. Can I

:54:03. > :54:09.hold him? Absolutely. You are a pro. Hold your arm out like a tree

:54:10. > :54:14.branch. Perfect. I have been called many things, but not a tree branch.

:54:15. > :54:19.Isn't he handsome? What kind of diet does he have? He is like an athlete.

:54:20. > :54:23.He exercises daily and eats chicken and quail and anything high-protein,

:54:24. > :54:27.sometimes some rabbit and the odd pigeon now and then. We see him

:54:28. > :54:32.every morning, buddy you stay for much of the day? We do try and see

:54:33. > :54:36.some of the tennis. Rufus gets a great spot up there, but we

:54:37. > :54:39.generally keep him out of the way by the time the public come in, because

:54:40. > :54:46.it gets busy and it is hard for him to pick me out in a crowd. And is he

:54:47. > :54:50.working alone? He has a couple of apprentices, but he is the chief

:54:51. > :54:55.pigeons carer. So how do you go about training a Harris Hawk? It is

:54:56. > :54:58.an intensive training process and can be nerve-racking when you are

:54:59. > :55:05.building up a relationship with them and feeding them bits of food daily.

:55:06. > :55:09.Then when you are ready to try them and you feel like you trust each

:55:10. > :55:12.other, you let them fly free. Ultimately, they could go off and

:55:13. > :55:16.survive on their own, but when you have put all that hard work in, you

:55:17. > :55:20.don't want them to disappear. He must be like a family member.

:55:21. > :55:33.Talking of flying free, I need to let you go. We will see you later.

:55:34. > :55:38.It's been a pleasure. Off you go! What a gorgeous hawk. The weather in

:55:39. > :55:41.Wimbledon is beautiful is, 20 Celsius at the moment and a lot of

:55:42. > :55:45.sunshine and temperatures are set to rise.

:55:46. > :55:55.The forecast for Wimbledon is dry. If you are outdoors today, it is

:55:56. > :55:58.worth slipping, slapping and slopping on your T-shirt, hat and

:55:59. > :56:02.sun cream. The next few days, it is going to be warm and humid across

:56:03. > :56:08.the board. Hot if you are further south. In the south of England this

:56:09. > :56:14.morning, there is a lot of sunshine around. Temperatures are rising very

:56:15. > :56:18.quickly in the sunshine. Further north, the cloud is building. Here

:56:19. > :56:23.we have a weak weather front, which is producing patchy rain across

:56:24. > :56:28.parts of north-east England. That cloud also extends into southern

:56:29. > :56:32.Scotland. The northern Scotland, sunshine first thing. It is chilly.

:56:33. > :56:36.Northern Ireland is off to a sunny start and you will hang onto that

:56:37. > :56:42.sunshine to most of the day. North Wales is seeing more cloud.

:56:43. > :56:46.South-west England is in the sunshine. There is the outside

:56:47. > :56:52.chance of a shower, no more than that. It could be thundery, though.

:56:53. > :56:58.As we drift from Gloucestershire towards the Home Counties, it is dry

:56:59. > :57:09.and sunny and the temperatures continue to rise. The cloud will

:57:10. > :57:14.break up through the day. But where it hangs on across north-east

:57:15. > :57:21.England, temperatures will be held back. Temperatures in Northern

:57:22. > :57:26.Ireland and Scotland are around 18 to 20 today. For England and Wales,

:57:27. > :57:32.we are looking at the mid to high 20s and up to 30 in the south-east.

:57:33. > :57:35.Overnight, we are looking at all those thunderstorms coming across

:57:36. > :57:41.the English Channel into southern counties. We also have a new weather

:57:42. > :57:46.front across western Scotland and Northern Ireland, introducing some

:57:47. > :57:50.rain. It is going to be muggy in the South. Fresher elsewhere. Tomorrow,

:57:51. > :57:53.the rain across Northern Ireland and Scotland rattle through quickly.

:57:54. > :58:02.Then another weather front comes into the West later. Some of the

:58:03. > :58:06.showers will be torrential, but some of us will miss them all together

:58:07. > :58:13.and we will have a dry colour sunny and humid day. As we head into

:58:14. > :58:17.Friday, the potential for thunderstorms diminishes. Most of us

:58:18. > :58:22.will have a dry day. If you showers across the north-east of England. By

:58:23. > :58:24.the end of the day, another one and weather front comes across Northern

:58:25. > :58:28.Ireland. Feeling more comfortable except for the South, where it will

:58:29. > :58:41.still be quite warm and humid. How cool was Rufus? I am a bit

:58:42. > :58:46.frightened of Rufus. You were so brave. He is as timid as a wee

:58:47. > :58:51.mouse. Steinegger remember that time he had to land on my hand? I was not

:58:52. > :58:56.brave. You did brilliantly. He obviously loves you. Anyone who was

:58:57. > :59:03.watching yesterday will have seen Carol and I have a game at game,

:59:04. > :59:06.set, mugger. You were rubbish. I was terrible. We have been getting

:59:07. > :59:11.tennis players to have a go at seeing how many balls they can get

:59:12. > :59:15.into our British mug in 30 seconds. Andy Murray and Jo Konta have tried.

:59:16. > :59:16.We thought we would ask Milos Raonic. He is going to be good,

:59:17. > :59:19.right? Thanks for taking part in our Game,

:59:20. > :59:24.Set, Mug Challenge. You have 30 seconds to get as many

:59:25. > :59:27.balls in as possible. And some, you know, I probably feel

:59:28. > :59:38.more comfortable in also. I've got the timer here ready,

:59:39. > :59:42.get a ball in your hand, OK, Milos is going for the quick

:59:43. > :59:48.succession approach. Extreme concentration

:59:49. > :59:49.on the face there. You must have hit at

:59:50. > :00:02.least 20 balls already. He's smiling, he's

:00:03. > :00:05.getting relaxed now. Put some more in at the end,

:00:06. > :00:14.I've not been able to count any. The mug is actually quite deep,

:00:15. > :00:23.you may be able to reach it Would you like to count

:00:24. > :00:27.them out for me? It's not a big challenge

:00:28. > :00:29.to count this high. There were so many you really

:00:30. > :00:36.couldn't see, like, in the really Are you feeling like you acquitted

:00:37. > :00:40.yourself well, are you happy I feel like if I knew about it

:00:41. > :00:45.I would have prepared better. A good point, thank

:00:46. > :01:03.you so much for taking part. Milos Raonic managed four. Let's

:01:04. > :01:09.have a look at the leaderboard. Who did the best job? Andy Murray. Of

:01:10. > :01:14.course he did. He only got 14 in 30 seconds. That's really good!

:01:15. > :01:20.LAUGHTER You've been paying attention! Milos Raonic in second

:01:21. > :01:24.place at the moment with four. Really good sports, really brave of

:01:25. > :01:30.them to have a go because they don't practice, they just do it. When you

:01:31. > :01:37.look at your two that's not bad! Banks! Maybe you'll do it tomorrow!

:01:38. > :01:45.STUDIO: Some things are best to pass on, aren't they Carol! LAUGHTER

:01:46. > :01:48.Carol would smash it! He coming back so we can have a go? That's a good

:01:49. > :01:51.point. You can watch live coverage

:01:52. > :01:54.of Wimbledon from 11.30 on BBC One and hear commentary from 12.30

:01:55. > :01:57.on BBC Radio 5 Live. You can also watch all the coverage

:01:58. > :02:11.from 15 courts on connected TV, Would you like to explain what a

:02:12. > :02:16.connected TV is? It's a TV that's connected to the internet either by

:02:17. > :02:28.an ethernet cable or wi-fi. Most TVs are connected these days. Can I just

:02:29. > :02:38.say, it smells of Spam in here! I am a convert to Spam! There are 13

:02:39. > :02:41.flavours of Spam by the way! Happy birthday Spam. For ten years

:02:42. > :02:45.interest rates haven't gone up. It's ten years to the day

:02:46. > :02:55.since interest rates last went up. Not great news for savers. They've

:02:56. > :02:57.seen rubbish returns on their savings in the bank but it's given

:02:58. > :03:06.the economy a bit of a kick-start. The cost of borrowing

:03:07. > :03:08.affects us all. It determines what we pay

:03:09. > :03:10.for our mortgage, how credit It also sets the way that we get

:03:11. > :03:14.interest on any savings. Take a look at the last ten years

:03:15. > :03:17.and one thing is pretty clear, rates have been going in one

:03:18. > :03:20.direction and that's down, and it all began at the height

:03:21. > :03:28.of the financial crisis. The UK economy was put on emergency

:03:29. > :03:31.life support to keep it ticking over while the world's financial

:03:32. > :03:34.system was in turmoil. Between 2008 and 2009,

:03:35. > :03:36.rates were slashed from nearly 6% to just 0.5%, and they've been

:03:37. > :03:40.at those record lows Just when people thought rates might

:03:41. > :03:47.start going up again, the Brexit vote created even more

:03:48. > :03:49.economic uncertainty, and so rates were

:03:50. > :03:51.slashed again in August Low interest rates mean it's cheaper

:03:52. > :04:04.for businesses to borrow money to invest or expand,

:04:05. > :04:07.and it also means cheaper mortgages, loans and credit

:04:08. > :04:11.cards for all of us. Well, it's bad news for savers,

:04:12. > :04:18.they've lost from record low returns and low interest rates tend

:04:19. > :04:20.to push up inflation, so that means higher

:04:21. > :04:36.prices for everyone. So some win, some lose. That's

:04:37. > :04:39.always the issue. Favours have really struggled. Now there's talk

:04:40. > :04:43.that perhaps rates could start going up. In America they've started

:04:44. > :04:50.rising. Until the economy gets back on an even keel, many think it's too

:04:51. > :04:56.soon to start raising the rate. Inflation is rising which means shop

:04:57. > :05:00.are going up too. The Bank of England has got to work out when is

:05:01. > :05:04.the time to raise rates, when is the time to bring the economy off life

:05:05. > :05:10.support. Give be too soon and it could hit economic growth, too late

:05:11. > :05:15.and inflation could be soaring. Thank you and sorry about the smell

:05:16. > :05:23.of Spam! I've got it in the mouth for the day I think!

:05:24. > :05:32.In a few minutes will be speaking to the man who published his diaries.

:05:33. > :07:25.First day last brief look at Welcome back. For many of us diary

:07:26. > :07:30.is a precious memory and secret thoughts. The idea of anyone else

:07:31. > :07:36.reading those scribbles is the stuff of nightmare! That is what the

:07:37. > :07:41.author and humourist David said RSS is letting us do. He's kept a diary

:07:42. > :07:44.for over 40 years and has published it for the first time -- David

:07:45. > :07:52.Sedaris. The thought of somebody taking your

:07:53. > :07:56.diary and publishing it, it's excruciating but this is what you've

:07:57. > :08:01.chosen to do. This is selections from my diary that I chose. If

:08:02. > :08:07.someone actually found my diary and read it I would die on the spot.

:08:08. > :08:12.Would you? I wasn't afraid to keep things that made me look bad. I

:08:13. > :08:16.don't write about my feelings, so it wasn't that embarrassing. I tend to

:08:17. > :08:21.write about things I see or overhear. So there wasn't that much

:08:22. > :08:26.to be ashamed of. You kept it for so many years. You must have gone back

:08:27. > :08:31.and read what he had written decades ago. Did any of that surprise you,

:08:32. > :08:35.have you changed your mind about things? There were things I told

:08:36. > :08:38.myself for years were somebody else's faults. Then I would read the

:08:39. > :08:45.diaries and think, that was completely might fault. Then I was

:08:46. > :08:51.distressed. I haven't changed any. I thought I had but I haven't really.

:08:52. > :08:54.My news resolution is the same every year, it doesn't change. That's how

:08:55. > :08:59.you know you haven't changed that much. Do you still write every

:09:00. > :09:07.single day in your diary? Yes, I get up every morning and write my diary.

:09:08. > :09:11.How long does it take? Like an hour, maybe. It doesn't matter if anything

:09:12. > :09:18.happened or not. If nothing happened just make something out of nothing.

:09:19. > :09:24.What was today's entry? I keep a notebook with me and all day things

:09:25. > :09:35.happen and I write them down. You know Park or -- parkour? I saw that

:09:36. > :09:42.for the first time. I saw these young people jumping. I completely

:09:43. > :09:47.support it, I think it's fantastic. It's fantastic to watch, isn't it?

:09:48. > :09:54.Yes, because somebody could die! LAUGHTER It always goes dark with

:09:55. > :09:59.you! I met somebody last night and she was Italian but she was from the

:10:00. > :10:06.part bitterly that borders Slovenia and she speaks of dialect. Her last

:10:07. > :10:12.name translates to wooden mask of a witch. That's a proper surname! The

:10:13. > :10:18.book is called Theft By Finding. That was a comment someone made to

:10:19. > :10:22.you, wasn't it? I was picking up rubbish on the side of the road and

:10:23. > :10:26.I found a ?5 note. She asked if I kept it and I said of course. She

:10:27. > :10:32.said, that is left by finding. It seemed like a good name for the book

:10:33. > :10:36.because my diary is basically things I found or overheard, things that

:10:37. > :10:43.were told to me. This woman told me a story, for example, a couple of

:10:44. > :10:46.days ago. She wanted me to sign a book to her goddaughter and she told

:10:47. > :10:50.me when her goddaughter was a baby the family convinced her that as

:10:51. > :10:55.long as she was naked she was invisible. They have all this

:10:56. > :11:00.footage of her marching into the kitchen at bedtime and opening the
