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

:00:07.:00:11.

More frustration at a lack of information

:00:12.:00:12.

After an angry meeting last night with the police,

:00:13.:00:18.

residents say their questions still aren't being answered.

:00:19.:00:23.

Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is. Do not hide

:00:24.:00:28.

anything. The majority of survivors remain

:00:29.:00:31.

in hotels despite today's deadline The council insists all families

:00:32.:00:34.

have been made an offer. All the memories I had, all my baby

:00:35.:00:38.

album is, I miss them a lot. Good morning, it's

:00:39.:00:56.

Wednesday July 5th. Victims of stalking and harassment

:00:57.:01:00.

are being left at risk, because of failings

:01:01.:01:05.

by police and prosecutors. A new report blames poor

:01:06.:01:13.

investigations and a lack An average debt of more than ?50,000

it off into their 50s. It's ten years to the day

:01:23.:01:26.

since the cost of borrowing They've been at record lows

:01:27.:01:29.

since then, but why and what does it mean for borrowers,

:01:30.:01:34.

savers and the economy? I am inside and Sally is in the Q.

:01:35.:01:49.

It should stay dry here. Across the central swathe we have cloud and

:01:50.:01:53.

drizzle. For most of us it will be sunny and warm, or hot! More later

:01:54.:01:55.

in the programme. Survivors of the Grenfell Tower

:01:56.:01:57.

disaster have expressed their frustration with a lack

:01:58.:02:04.

of information during a meeting last night with the police

:02:05.:02:07.

and the Westminster Coroner. A senior officer faced questions

:02:08.:02:10.

as to why no arrests had been made, while the coroner is said

:02:11.:02:13.

to have described the scene inside the building

:02:14.:02:16.

as "apocalyptic". Despite today's deadline set

:02:17.:02:21.

by the Prime Minister, for everybody affected to be

:02:22.:02:23.

found a home nearby, the majority of survivors remain

:02:24.:02:25.

in hotels, as Nick Quraishi reports. This was the first opportunity

:02:26.:02:32.

for families to put their questions directly to police and

:02:33.:02:36.

the Westminster coroner. One reason this private meeting

:02:37.:02:38.

lasted more than 3.5 hours. It's understood relatives were told

:02:39.:02:45.

in graphic detail the challenge that forensic teams are facing

:02:46.:02:48.

in even trying to find DNA They say the information

:02:49.:02:51.

they are getting isn't good enough. We personally asked,

:02:52.:02:55.

where is our family? We want to know, is our families'

:02:56.:02:58.

bodies still there? Whatever it is, we want to know

:02:59.:03:01.

exactly what it is, And the answers that

:03:02.:03:05.

were coming back were, "We don't know, we don't

:03:06.:03:09.

know, we don't know." Today is the deadline

:03:10.:03:12.

set by Theresa May to rehouse the 158 families made

:03:13.:03:15.

homeless by the disaster. According to the Grenfell response

:03:16.:03:19.

team, that target has been met, with 139 formal offers made,

:03:20.:03:22.

but just nine have been accepted. Lawyers for survivors say most

:03:23.:03:28.

of the accommodation is Three weeks after the tragedy,

:03:29.:03:31.

police still maintain their investigation will be

:03:32.:03:37.

exhaustive and will bring the answers that the families

:03:38.:03:39.

desperately deserve, We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman

:03:40.:03:41.

of the Grenfell Fire Response Team We will try to get to the bottom of

:03:42.:03:58.

some of those questions, as to why people aren't accepting the offers

:03:59.:04:00.

of accommodation. Victims of harassment and stalking

:04:01.:04:00.

in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:04:01.:04:03.

by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:04:04.:04:06.

weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:04:07.:04:10.

and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:04:11.:04:24.

and concluded that none had been dealt with well. Officers and

:04:25.:04:29.

prosecutors were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very

:04:30.:04:35.

nature both stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really

:04:36.:04:41.

pernicious and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors were

:04:42.:04:46.

missing that, which meant that victims were left at risk.

:04:47.:04:47.

The United States has confirmed that a weapon fired into the Sea of Japan

:04:48.:04:51.

by North Korea was an intercontinental ballistic missile.

:04:52.:04:53.

In response, the US and South Korea carried out

:04:54.:04:56.

China meanwhile has called on its ally North Korea

:04:57.:05:05.

For the latest, let's speak to our Beijing correspondent Stephen

:05:06.:05:09.

How significant a step forward is this by North Korea? I think it's a

:05:10.:05:22.

pretty significant step. You remember that Donald Trump tweeted

:05:23.:05:31.

back in January that "It won't happen", that North Korea would get

:05:32.:05:34.

missiles capable of hitting the US. It still hasn't got them, what it

:05:35.:05:39.

now has missiles that can reach the US. Other bits of the ICB aren't

:05:40.:05:50.

there. -- ICBM. So a big step forward towards what seemed like a

:05:51.:05:53.

red line for President Trump. What is now happening here today is that

:05:54.:05:58.

the military, the South Korean military and the US military, is

:05:59.:06:01.

sending pretty strong messages to North Korea. The two military

:06:02.:06:05.

leaders say the difference between peace and war is self restraint.

:06:06.:06:14.

That's a choice we make, we can make a different choice. So were pretty

:06:15.:06:18.

direct threat to North Korea. The US and South Korean military have let

:06:19.:06:23.

off live missiles to show what kind of power -- firepower they've got.

:06:24.:06:29.

So it's a matter of a much more dangerous situation. Not quite there

:06:30.:06:34.

yet, where Mr Trump has to say, right, that's it, now it really is

:06:35.:06:38.

the military option, but it's getting away. We will be speaking

:06:39.:06:45.

more about that later in the programme. We will have a special

:06:46.:06:47.

guest at about 6:40am. Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign

:06:48.:06:50.

promoter of Islamist extremism in the UK, according

:06:51.:06:52.

to a foreign policy think tank. The Henry Jackson Society accuses

:06:53.:06:55.

Saudi individuals and foundations of exporting "an illiberal,

:06:56.:07:00.

bigoted ideology" and calls for the UK government's secret

:07:01.:07:02.

report into extremism The Saudi embassy in London has

:07:03.:07:04.

called the allegations Police repeatedly failed a disabled

:07:05.:07:08.

refugee who sought their help before being murdered in Bristol four years

:07:09.:07:17.

ago, according to a report by the Independent Police

:07:18.:07:20.

Complaints Commission. Bijan Ebrahimi made dozens of calls

:07:21.:07:22.

to police, mainly to report racial abuse, criminal damage

:07:23.:07:25.

and threats to kill. He was eventually beaten to death

:07:26.:07:27.

by a neighbour who wrongly believed Avon and Somerset police say

:07:28.:07:30.

they have made changes and has He told police dozens of times

:07:31.:07:34.

that his life was in danger. What part of 'be quiet'

:07:35.:07:47.

do you not understand? Now a report says that over several

:07:48.:07:52.

years, the Iranian refugee was repeatedly failed by Avon

:07:53.:07:57.

and Somerset police, treated as a nuisance,

:07:58.:07:59.

not as a victim. In 2013, he was beaten to death

:08:00.:08:04.

by a neighbour outside his flat The Independent Police

:08:05.:08:08.

Complaints Commission says there were systematic failures

:08:09.:08:14.

in the way he was dealt with. Today's report runs to hundreds

:08:15.:08:19.

of pages and it says this whole case has laid bare what it

:08:20.:08:23.

calls the disrespect, the prejudice and even contempt

:08:24.:08:25.

with which some officers and staff treated Bijan Ebrahimi in the days

:08:26.:08:28.

before he was murdered here. Reading that report and just coming

:08:29.:08:33.

to terms with what happened He always thought that he is in

:08:34.:08:37.

a country that police And he couldn't see

:08:38.:08:44.

anything beyond that. Last year, PC Kevin Duffy

:08:45.:08:52.

and community support officer Andrew Passmore were jailed

:08:53.:08:55.

after being convicted of misconduct PC's Leanne Winter and Helen Harris

:08:56.:08:57.

were cleared by the jury but were later sacked

:08:58.:09:03.

by a misconduct hearing. We accept that we failed

:09:04.:09:08.

Bijan Ebrahimi at his time of greatest need and throughout that

:09:09.:09:11.

time, he was respectful and he had confidence and trust

:09:12.:09:14.

in us, the police. And we let him down

:09:15.:09:17.

and for that, we are sorry. Avon and Somerset police say

:09:18.:09:23.

they have improved the way that they deal with vulnerable

:09:24.:09:26.

people as a result of this case. Bijan's sisters are still waiting

:09:27.:09:29.

for the local council's report. We will pick up some of those

:09:30.:09:42.

thoughts on the peace later -- piece later.

:09:43.:09:42.

The average student debt for graduates in England is set

:09:43.:09:45.

to rise to over ?50,000, according to new research

:09:46.:09:47.

by the Insititute for Fiscal Studies.

:09:48.:09:49.

Pretty stark research. They also point out that many students will be

:09:50.:09:56.

pained that debt into their 50s, so not able to shake off the debt from

:09:57.:10:01.

their student days for a very long time. That's because the interest

:10:02.:10:06.

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

:10:07.:10:10.

the Bank of England, it is just a quarter of 1%, so a huge disparity.

:10:11.:10:14.

They suggest students are being asked to pay too much on the money

:10:15.:10:19.

they borrow. They've also looked at figures specifically. If over the

:10:20.:10:22.

course of your degree you borrow about ?45,000, you will pay nearly

:10:23.:10:28.

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

:10:29.:10:32.

be paying it back for so long. Of course there is a threshold where

:10:33.:10:36.

the payment kicks in. You have to work 21,000 powers if a job you hope

:10:37.:10:39.

to get when you leave university before you pay that back -- ?21,000.

:10:40.:10:44.

They've made it clear that threshold hasn't changed, so people have to

:10:45.:10:48.

pay more earlier, because that hasn't risen in line with inflation.

:10:49.:10:52.

The universities have benefited from this money. They have increased how

:10:53.:10:58.

much they spend on students by about 25% since these changes were brought

:10:59.:11:02.

in, but nonetheless the burden for students is very much still there, a

:11:03.:11:06.

off debt into their 50s, with a pretty massive interest rate on what

:11:07.:11:10.

they borrow. I worked as a labourer when I was a student to try to get

:11:11.:11:14.

the debt down. A good summer job! What did you do? Carry bricks? Built

:11:15.:11:21.

patios, dug holes. Useful skills. I was a waitress.

:11:22.:11:29.

The rationing of NHS treatments such as hip,

:11:30.:11:31.

knee and cataract operations, as well as mental health services,

:11:32.:11:33.

has increased significantly in England over the past four years

:11:34.:11:36.

according to a study published in the British Medical Journal.

:11:37.:11:39.

Growing financial pressure and increased demand for services

:11:40.:11:41.

has led some areas to withdraw funding for some procedures,

:11:42.:11:44.

leading to what doctors describe as a growing postcode lottery.

:11:45.:11:49.

It's the food that kept troops alive in the Second World War and then

:11:50.:11:53.

was fed to unwilling school children in the post-war years.

:11:54.:11:59.

And let's face it, it's still the tinned meat lots of us

:12:00.:12:05.

Some people obviously love it, with eight billion cans of the stuff

:12:06.:12:12.

being sold, and believe it or not it's a delicacy in some parts

:12:13.:12:15.

It was even immortalised in a Monty Python sketch.

:12:16.:12:22.

Anything without Spam in it? We've got Spam sausages. I do want any!

:12:23.:12:35.

Why can't we have spam and egg sausages? Can I have eggs, bacon,

:12:36.:12:41.

spam and sausage without the spam? I don't like spam! Spam, spam, spam,

:12:42.:12:48.

spamity spam! It was so funny. Are we going to

:12:49.:12:58.

tuck into this later? We are going to be cracking into

:12:59.:13:01.

this later. Quite a few people already sending in their spam

:13:02.:13:05.

recipes. Paul says he is fishing with it today.

:13:06.:13:12.

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

:13:13.:13:16.

The shape, the colouring, everything still looks the same.

:13:17.:13:22.

Very dangerous to open it. They have changed the lead.

:13:23.:13:29.

Far safer these days. Spam and chips used to be a regular

:13:30.:13:33.

Thursday night meal in my house. Nothing wrong with a bit of Spam.

:13:34.:13:38.

Get in touch with us. Your thoughts on that and anything else on the

:13:39.:13:42.

programme. You can e-mail us, or getting touch on Facebook or

:13:43.:13:48.

Twitter. Carol is at Wimbledon and Sally is outside with those

:13:49.:13:52.

preparing to watch Andy Murray and the rest again! Good morning, Sally.

:13:53.:13:58.

Good morning, both of you. I don't think there's much Spam here. I've

:13:59.:14:02.

looked around. Everybody is starting to wake up. You get woken by the

:14:03.:14:07.

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

:14:08.:14:14.

a chap eating his breakfast over there. Not much Spam, but a very

:14:15.:14:20.

good mood. Everyone feeling rather chirpy. These guys have maybe got a

:14:21.:14:24.

chance of seeing Andy Murray play on centre court, so who could blame

:14:25.:14:29.

them? There are 39,000 people allowed into Wimbledon over the road

:14:30.:14:33.

and these people at some of them, have been queueing for more than 24

:14:34.:14:38.

hours, sleeping in tents and having a fine time! We did set out tennis

:14:39.:14:43.

players a particular challenge on BBC Breakfast. We've been doing the

:14:44.:14:49.

BBC Breakfast mug. I was particularly rubbish. Andy Murray

:14:50.:14:55.

has set the trend so far, managing to get 14 tennis balls into our

:14:56.:15:00.

breakfast mug in the space of 20 seconds. Milos Raonic one in -- won

:15:01.:15:06.

in straight sets yesterday. Lovely to see Hugh. Thanks for

:15:07.:15:16.

taking part in our challenge. You have 30 seconds to get as many balls

:15:17.:15:22.

in as possible. How are the nerves? I've faced bigger challenges but I

:15:23.:15:27.

probably feel more comfortable in them. Let's give it a try, I've got

:15:28.:15:31.

it ready, get a ball in your hand, on your marks, get set, go. Me lost

:15:32.:15:37.

is going for the quick succession approach. Extreme concentration on

:15:38.:15:43.

the face, he is barely blinking, how many balls as he hit so far? I'm not

:15:44.:15:49.

looking that way. Had 12 seconds and so far. At least 20 balls already.

:15:50.:15:54.

Coming up for 20 seconds. He's smiling, he is getting relaxed now,

:15:55.:16:00.

is that better? How many have we got now? 24 seconds, five seconds left.

:16:01.:16:05.

We'll see how many he's got in at the end. We'll do a quick count. The

:16:06.:16:12.

mug is actually quite deep, you may be able to reach it with your

:16:13.:16:15.

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

:16:16.:16:23.

challenge to count these out. Four balls. 4-balls in 30 seconds. There

:16:24.:16:28.

were so many you couldn't see really deep under the mug. Did you feel

:16:29.:16:32.

like you acquit yourself well, you happy with that performance? I feel

:16:33.:16:37.

like if I knew about it I would have prepared better. A good point, thank

:16:38.:16:41.

you so much for taking part. No problem, thank you so much.

:16:42.:16:44.

Shall we have a look at the all-important leaderboard? There you

:16:45.:16:51.

can see happily at the very top, Andy Murray, how did he get 14?

:16:52.:17:00.

Milos Raonic, a really good effort. Joe Konta with two. Plenty more of

:17:01.:17:05.

those coming up. It is really difficult. I might get some of these

:17:06.:17:09.

people in the queue to have a go at it later, that could be interesting.

:17:10.:17:14.

Before I go let me show you the back pages because there another big

:17:15.:17:19.

sports story, at the Tour de France yesterday, we have pictures of Mark

:17:20.:17:22.

Cavendish, he was forced to leave the Tour de France after an horrific

:17:23.:17:28.

fall, a terrible crash. Peter Sagan, very famous cyclist, has been banned

:17:29.:17:33.

for this tour, I know he has leave to appeal but Mark Cavendish has a

:17:34.:17:37.

broken shoulder. Back page of the Mirror, a fairly gruesome picture of

:17:38.:17:44.

Mark Cavendish yesterday, he said he is OK, Peter Sagan apologised to the

:17:45.:17:49.

team boss, not sure how that conversation went. A Wimbledon story

:17:50.:17:53.

on the back page of the times, Wimbledon crackdown on gritters

:17:54.:17:57.

after two players yesterday, the opponents of Djokovic and Federer

:17:58.:18:01.

finished early because of injury. Its controversial because for

:18:02.:18:05.

turning up and playing you get something like ?35,000. Both of the

:18:06.:18:09.

players were injured and had to retire. The crowd on centre court

:18:10.:18:13.

were disappointed as they were expecting to fantastic matches and

:18:14.:18:16.

they didn't get them yesterday so much more on that through the

:18:17.:18:22.

programme. On going to stay in the queue and look for some Spam

:18:23.:18:26.

sandwiches but Carol is inside Wimbledon with the weather -- I'm

:18:27.:18:28.

going to stay. It is glorious, the temperature at

:18:29.:18:34.

Wimbledon at the moment is around 17. If I give you a tour around, I'm

:18:35.:18:39.

above Court 18, it fills up quite quickly because if you've got a

:18:40.:18:43.

ground pass you can come in here and you can see the queue is growing for

:18:44.:18:48.

this on a daily basis. Behind it is the broadcast centre where

:18:49.:18:51.

reporters, journalists and presenters from all around the world

:18:52.:18:54.

gather to report on the events taking place at the championships.

:18:55.:19:00.

Did you know it's been 90 years of BBC Radio 4 at the championships and

:19:01.:19:04.

80 years of BBC television? Quite a record! This morning for Wimbledon

:19:05.:19:10.

it's a lovely start, the sun is out, as we go through the day that will

:19:11.:19:14.

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

:19:15.:19:19.

The afternoon maximum, which isn't on this chart, will be around 28, 29

:19:20.:19:24.

or even 30 in light winds -- more humid. There that in mind if you're

:19:25.:19:29.

coming down. For the next few days the forecast for all of us will be

:19:30.:19:34.

hot and humid -- there that in mind. Or even warm depending on where you

:19:35.:19:40.

are. If we look around the country, blue skies in the south, already

:19:41.:19:45.

very pleasantly warm but as we go north there's a bit more cloud,

:19:46.:19:50.

yesterday's weather front, a decaying feature, but producing a

:19:51.:19:54.

fair bit of cloud and drizzle, some coastal hill fog as well and some of

:19:55.:19:57.

that could get into southern Scotland. In Northern Scotland, a

:19:58.:20:02.

dry and sunny start and a chilly one. In Northern Ireland, a fine

:20:03.:20:07.

start, as it is in Wales, north Wales seeing more cloud and in

:20:08.:20:10.

south-west England, a fine start. The outside chance of a shower but

:20:11.:20:18.

unlucky if you get one, and in southern counties back into the warm

:20:19.:20:21.

sunshine. Through today what you will find is we will start to lose

:20:22.:20:25.

that cloud, especially from north-west England and south-west

:20:26.:20:29.

Scotland. We will hang onto it more across the Northeast and that will

:20:30.:20:35.

peg back the temperatures, feeling cooler in the north, around 14-17,

:20:36.:20:40.

hot and humid further south. Anywhere from Bristol,

:20:41.:20:43.

Gloucestershire, London, high 20s, possibly hitting 30 and 30 is more

:20:44.:20:48.

likely in the south-east. Through the evening and overnight we import

:20:49.:20:52.

thunderstorms overnight, coming up through the English Channel and

southern counties, at the same time we have a weather front across

:20:57.:20:59.

Northern Ireland and western Scotland introducing some rain.

:21:00.:21:03.

Temperature wise tonight, we're looking at lows of about ten to 18

:21:04.:21:08.

Celsius. Tomorrow the thunderstorms will continue to drift north through

:21:09.:21:13.

the day, some of those will be heavy and thundery, torrential downpours.

:21:14.:21:16.

If you get one you will know about it and some big hail embedded in

:21:17.:21:20.

them, some will miss them all together and get some sunshine and

:21:21.:21:26.

the rain in the north-west will hit Northern Ireland, Northern Scotland

:21:27.:21:29.

and the England and the next band arrives in western Scotland

:21:30.:21:32.

tomorrow. Hot and humid in the south. On Friday, a dry day for most

:21:33.:21:37.

of us, showers in north-east England, a weather front waiting in

:21:38.:21:42.

the winds later for Northern Ireland but a lot of sunshine and

:21:43.:21:45.

temperatures still on the muggy side in the south with 28, 29 or 30. In

:21:46.:21:52.

the north, things will be a bit fresher, more comfortable but

:21:53.:21:53.

certainly by no means cold. It's really turned out nice for

:21:54.:22:01.

Wimbledon. Thanks very much, Carol, we will see you later. Every morning

:22:02.:22:05.

we have been there this week it has been lovely! Plenty more from

:22:06.:22:07.

Wimbledon through the morning. You're watching

:22:08.:22:08.

Breakfast from BBC News. The main stories this morning:

:22:09.:22:10.

Grenfell Tower survivors have expressed their frustration

:22:11.:22:12.

at the authorities, saying questions still aren't being answered

:22:13.:22:14.

and no-one has been arrested. North Korea is warned by the USA

:22:15.:22:17.

and South Korea that war can't be intercontinental ballistic missile

:22:18.:22:21.

test. Let's return to the main story this

:22:22.:22:35.

morning. It was one of the key promises

:22:36.:22:38.

from Theresa May in the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy,

:22:39.:22:41.

that all survivors would be rehoused Despite that pledge,

:22:42.:22:44.

only nine offers have been accepted and many

:22:45.:22:48.

families are still living in hotels. So, three weeks after that

:22:49.:22:50.

devastating fire, why are so many people still not living

:22:51.:22:53.

in a place they can call home? Frankie McCamley went to meet one

:22:54.:22:56.

man and his 10-year-old daughter You feel better? Yes.

:22:57.:23:14.

This man and his daughter and his wife lived on the 15th floor of

:23:15.:23:18.

Grenfell Tower. They've now been living in a hotel for three weeks.

:23:19.:23:24.

It's not comfortable and it doesn't feel like home. I miss my room and

:23:25.:23:31.

all the memories I had, my baby albums, I miss them a lot. My

:23:32.:23:39.

daughter... She's losing her focus because this isn't her place, not

:23:40.:23:48.

her room, not her life. I find it hard to sleep, I have nightmares

:23:49.:23:54.

about if it happens again, if I wake up and I see fire in the building. I

:23:55.:24:04.

feel like useless. I feel I have no power to take away all this pain

:24:05.:24:11.

from her. If I could, I would, I would take all the pain and put it

:24:12.:24:16.

on me. The families say they have received calls of support from local

:24:17.:24:20.

services but what they really want is for someone to visit them. The

:24:21.:24:27.

people in my building, they were very close to me and they were like

:24:28.:24:39.

family and seeing them go wasn't good. Be brave, you're so brave. As

:24:40.:24:48.

the family struggle to come to terms with what happened, they say they

:24:49.:24:52.

have been offered a two bedroom flat just over a mile away, but Sid-Ali

:24:53.:24:57.

says it's too far from Hayam's school and it's not big enough. They

:24:58.:25:03.

need to see us as a victim and treat us with dignity, not anything else.

:25:04.:25:13.

This is so frustrating. It's very bad, it's very bad. Three weeks they

:25:14.:25:18.

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

:25:19.:25:25.

accommodation to Grenfell Tower residents, nine of which have been

:25:26.:25:28.

accepted. It says the three-week target of offering temporary homes

:25:29.:25:32.

to those affected has been met, but for this family the money and

:25:33.:25:35.

support they've been offered has simply not been good enough. Their

:25:36.:25:41.

putting a price on us, they give ?5,000 each and ?500, is that the

:25:42.:25:49.

value of lives? I want this to finish. That's what I need, my

:25:50.:25:58.

dignity. Have you got any faith in their services any more? No, I have

:25:59.:26:02.

faith in the residence, I have faith in the community, I have faith in

:26:03.:26:07.

the people who live their lives... My faith is there, my faith is

:26:08.:26:09.

there. That gives you a clear idea of how

:26:10.:26:11.

people are feeling. Just after 7am this morning we'll be

:26:12.:26:14.

speaking to spokeswoman We will put some of those thoughts

:26:15.:26:24.

from that father to her, especially being treated like numbers, not

:26:25.:26:28.

names, about not being treated with dignity. We will talk about all

:26:29.:26:32.

those issues later. In about ten minutes we will have

:26:33.:26:36.

more information on the escalating tensions in North Korea and the

:26:37.:26:40.

latest missile test and also we will be back at Wimbledon for all the

:26:41.:30:02.

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

:30:03.:30:13.

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

:30:14.:30:17.

Think of Snapchat and you probably think of these,

:30:18.:30:25.

We'll look at how a new feature causing concern

:30:26.:30:32.

Last year, Milos Raonic couldn't match Andy Murray's record

:30:33.:30:38.

in our Game Set Mug challenge, so how will tennis fans

:30:39.:30:42.

We'll go live, with the mug, to find out later.

:30:43.:30:52.

And we'll be finding out how it feels to be pregnant in one

:30:53.:30:56.

of the remotest parts of the UK, where the nearest hospital

:30:57.:30:59.

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

:31:00.:31:04.

Survivors of the Grenfell Tower disaster have expressed

:31:05.:31:07.

their frustration with a lack of information during a meeting last

:31:08.:31:10.

night with the police and the Westminster Coroner.

:31:11.:31:17.

A senior officer was asked why there hadn't been any arrests.

:31:18.:31:20.

The coroner reportedly described the scene

:31:21.:31:22.

inside the building as "apocalyptic".

:31:23.:31:23.

The majority of survivors remain in hotels, despite today's deadline

:31:24.:31:26.

set by the Prime Minister for everybody affected to be found

:31:27.:31:29.

We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman of the Grenfell Fire Response Team

:31:30.:31:33.

We will put forward some of those questions, which we have been

:31:34.:31:45.

hearing from any family members and those who survived. Those questions

:31:46.:31:48.

in about 40 minutes. Victims of harassment and stalking

:31:49.:31:51.

in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:31:52.:31:55.

by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:31:56.:31:57.

weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:31:58.:32:01.

and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:32:02.:32:03.

and concluded that none had been Officers and prosecutors

:32:04.:32:07.

were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very nature both

:32:08.:32:15.

stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really pernicious

:32:16.:32:18.

and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors

:32:19.:32:20.

were missing that, which meant that The US and South Korea have jointly

:32:21.:32:23.

warned North Korea that war can't be ruled out, following Pyongyang's

:32:24.:32:42.

intercontinental ballistic missile The two countries' most senior

:32:43.:32:44.

officers based in South Korea said self restraint was a choice,

:32:45.:32:51.

which could change at any time. North Korea has quoted its leader

:32:52.:32:54.

Kim Jong-un taunting the US, calling its missile test

:32:55.:32:57.

a gift to the Americans Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign

:32:58.:32:59.

promoter of Islamist extremism in the UK, according

:33:00.:33:05.

to a foreign policy think tank. The Henry Jackson Society accuses

:33:06.:33:08.

Saudi individuals and foundations of exporting "an illiberal,

:33:09.:33:11.

bigoted ideology" and calls for the UK government's secret

:33:12.:33:13.

report into extremism The Saudi embassy in London has

:33:14.:33:15.

called the allegations Students starting their studies

:33:16.:33:24.

in England this September can expect to graduate with average debts

:33:25.:33:32.

of more than ?50,000. That's according to a report

:33:33.:33:35.

by the Institute for Fiscal Studies, which also indicates that students

:33:36.:33:38.

from the poorest backgrounds will leave university

:33:39.:33:40.

with the highest debts. The study's authors described

:33:41.:33:42.

the new 6.1% interest rates The Department of Education

:33:43.:33:44.

declined to comment. The rationing of NHS

:33:45.:33:56.

treatments such as hip, knee and cataract operations,

:33:57.:33:58.

as well as mental health services, has increased significantly

:33:59.:34:01.

in England over the past four years according to a study published

:34:02.:34:04.

in the British Medical Journal. Growing financial pressure

:34:05.:34:08.

and increased demand for services has led some areas to withdraw

:34:09.:34:10.

funding for some procedures, leading to what doctors describe

:34:11.:34:13.

as a growing postcode lottery. It was party time in the USA

:34:14.:34:23.

yesterday, as America celebrated Lots of firework displays,

:34:27.:34:31.

champion, Joey Chestnut, who won his tenth

:34:32.:34:42.

title by downing 72 That's disgusting.

:34:43.:34:57.

That's not just the meat, it is the bread as well. You would not want to

:34:58.:35:04.

travel back with him after that. You're appalled by that!

:35:05.:35:10.

I am. Sally is at Wimbledon today and has lots of challenges for

:35:11.:35:17.

people in the queue as well. Here is the mug. We are going to

:35:18.:35:23.

make people here play Game, Set Mug. We haven't warned them just how

:35:24.:35:28.

tough it is. I don't know about you two, what if you were offered

:35:29.:35:33.

?35,000 to walk onto a tennis court, hit a few balls with Novak Djokovic

:35:34.:35:36.

or Federer, would you do it? Yes!

:35:37.:35:42.

Of course you would! Well, disappointing if you were a fan on

:35:43.:35:45.

centre court yesterday because that's what happened. A couple of

:35:46.:35:49.

players played yesterday, but they got cut short. We've got Andy Murray

:35:50.:35:55.

to look forward to today. He is playing Dustin Brown, from Germany.

:35:56.:36:00.

But those gains were cut short. Novak Djokovic and Federer have

:36:01.:36:04.

spoken out, saying perhaps it is time to change the rules. One player

:36:05.:36:09.

lasted only 40 minutes against Novak Djokovic before his injury proved

:36:10.:36:13.

too much. So a real disappointment for centre crowd. Another player was

:36:14.:36:21.

forced off with an ankle injury. Federer and Novak Djokovic said they

:36:22.:36:24.

could go back out together and play a practice that, because they had so

:36:25.:36:26.

little time on the grass court. There was more controversy

:36:27.:36:31.

after Australian Bernard Tomic said he was "bored" during his

:36:32.:36:34.

straight-sets defeat to Mischa He also admitted to using a medical

:36:35.:36:36.

time-out to try to slow down the match, which could

:36:37.:36:40.

earn him a fine. After going out in the first

:36:41.:36:43.

round for four years in a row, Kyle Edmund finally made it

:36:44.:36:47.

through to round two when he beat his fellow

:36:48.:36:51.

Brit Alex Ward. He is on the programme with us here

:36:52.:36:56.

later. And women's world number one

:36:57.:37:00.

Angelique Kerber is through, after beating American

:37:01.:37:02.

qualifier Irina Falconi. Kerber was runner up last year

:37:03.:37:04.

to Serena Williams. Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de

:37:05.:37:09.

France after a crash at the end World champion Peter Sagan

:37:10.:37:13.

was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:37:14.:37:16.

appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:37:17.:37:19.

and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one

:37:20.:37:23.

of the worst defeats Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:37:24.:37:25.

at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:37:26.:37:29.

team from Luxembourg and they lost

:37:40.:37:43.

lose his legs, has driven a hand It was the first time he'd driven

:37:44.:37:47.

since the accident 11 weeks ago. An online campaign went viral,

:37:48.:37:52.

raising almost ?1 million Right now we have two volunteers.

:37:53.:38:06.

Good morning! You haven't had any chance to practise? Let me ask, how

:38:07.:38:11.

long have you been in miscue? We got here at about 2:30 yesterday

:38:12.:38:17.

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

:38:18.:38:23.

sleep, but the atmosphere is amazing, so we don't feel too tired

:38:24.:38:27.

this morning. Are you sure? Yes, ready to go! Here is a tennis

:38:28.:38:34.

racquet each, these are the tennis balls. You are precise distance away

:38:35.:38:38.

from the mug and you've got 30 seconds. You will both go at the

:38:39.:38:43.

same time. Both at the same time is I think the best. I'm going to get

:38:44.:38:47.

out of the way and we are going to start the timing. Three, two, one,

:38:48.:38:54.

go! Too far! Nearly! Go on. Can I give you a tip? Overrun. Yes! --

:38:55.:39:07.

over arm. It hit the cameraman! You need danger money. Let's check the

:39:08.:39:14.

timing. How are we for timing? Are we nearly there? Done. 30 seconds,

:39:15.:39:24.

done. Come on, girls. Come with me. How do you think you did? Terrible.

:39:25.:39:31.

It wasn't my best performance. I think you should get a bonus point

:39:32.:39:35.

for hitting the cameraman. You've done well! There were two of you,

:39:36.:39:41.

but you got three in. The British number one got two. Wow. I think

:39:42.:39:50.

you've done really well. Game, Set, Mug, congratulations. I would like

:39:51.:39:56.

to sell -- tell you we could give you a mug, but we don't have. Who

:39:57.:40:00.

are you hoping to see today? Hopefully Andy Murray. Either way

:40:01.:40:06.

the atmosphere will be amazing. Did you get any indication as to what

:40:07.:40:10.

the timing would be? When you get in you get a card and that has a number

:40:11.:40:17.

on it and I think 0-500 is centre and after 500 is called number one.

:40:18.:40:26.

We are 550 and 551. So we don't know. You've done brilliantly. That

:40:27.:40:31.

is pretty impressive, three, and we didn't even let the practice for a

:40:32.:40:36.

moment! Congratulations. Thanks very much. Back to you.

:40:37.:40:40.

Very impressive! Three in 30 seconds! I wonder if

:40:41.:40:47.

they will get onto the leaderboard. Andy Murray is on 14.

:40:48.:40:52.

He was very impressive. I think he is going to win.

:40:53.:40:58.

Am beatable! Let's go back to one of our main stories.

:40:59.:41:00.

War can't be ruled out - that was the message coming out

:41:01.:41:03.

of the United States last night, after it confirmed that North Korea

:41:04.:41:07.

had tested an intercontinental ballistic missile.

:41:08.:41:08.

So, why is Pyongyang pursuing nuclear weapons capabilities?

:41:09.:41:13.

Let's speak to Adam Cathcart, lecturer in Chinese history

:41:14.:41:16.

at the University of Leeds, who has written extensively on North

:41:17.:41:19.

Good morning. We know Kim Jong-un personally supervised this and he

:41:20.:41:27.

said it was a gift to America on Independence Day. What are North

:41:28.:41:34.

Korea's intentions? They've remained consistent, despite the shocking,

:41:35.:41:39.

electric response that these things tend to create, which they intend to

:41:40.:41:45.

create, in the US and outside North Korea. But they are consistent in

:41:46.:41:49.

the sense of national defence and building up the Kim Jong-un cold,

:41:50.:41:54.

showing he can defend the country against the mightiest superpower in

:41:55.:42:01.

the US. -- Kim Jong-un cult. It is about creating a strong nuclear

:42:02.:42:05.

deterrent and that the technical aspect that has the US worried. You

:42:06.:42:08.

talk about a nuclear deterrent because there is a difference

:42:09.:42:13.

between that and a nuclear attack. That's the concern, for the US,

:42:14.:42:18.

isn't it? They say this could mean more. Is that where we are at? Big

:42:19.:42:23.

it's been that way since 1953, in the sense that at the end of the

:42:24.:42:28.

Korean War, American troops remained in South Korea. 38,000 troops. China

:42:29.:42:33.

has remained loosely affiliated with North Korea, so you've got a proxy

:42:34.:42:38.

war, and anything can happen along the demilitarised zone at any time.

:42:39.:42:43.

So the question for me is whether this technical leap that they've

:42:44.:42:48.

made, this provocation, whether it will turn into a more tense and

:42:49.:42:52.

perhaps kinetic situation along the dinner at the -- demilitarised zone.

:42:53.:42:59.

In terms of the technology, this is what we've heard last night and this

:43:00.:43:03.

morning, this intercontinental ballistic missile which apparently

:43:04.:43:06.

can reach Alaska, in terms of the steps they need to make, they still

:43:07.:43:10.

need to make the warheads small enough to get on the top of this

:43:11.:43:15.

rocket and then the technology enables them to re-enter the earth's

:43:16.:43:18.

atmosphere, so they are still way away? They may be trained to move in

:43:19.:43:25.

that direction. They are demonstrating and highlighting for

:43:26.:43:29.

the world at every step that they are making progress on all of these

:43:30.:43:34.

areas. The question is whether they can pay for it and continue to pay

:43:35.:43:38.

for these things, given the imbalances in the economy,

:43:39.:43:42.

tightening sanctions and the rest. Talk about China, if you would for

:43:43.:43:48.

we know President Trump is talking to China as well. What difference

:43:49.:43:53.

could China's role make? They can support sanctions of the UN. They

:43:54.:43:58.

are stakeholder and have been and have strong words for North Korea.

:43:59.:44:02.

But if you go to the Chinese border with North Korea, as I do every

:44:03.:44:06.

year, you will find that sanction enforcement is sporadic and there

:44:07.:44:13.

are lots of areas of connectivity. So it's difficult to say. A great

:44:14.:44:23.

example is the truck from which this missile was launched was

:44:24.:44:26.

manufacturing China. How did this get across? Who is making money off

:44:27.:44:31.

this? To China has strong words from North Korea and Chinese people

:44:32.:44:34.

themselves are quite upset at North Korea often. But ultimately China's

:44:35.:44:39.

national interest appears to be to continue to play North Korea against

:44:40.:44:49.

the South Koreans and the Americans. What will the feeling be in South

:44:50.:44:55.

Korea? My understanding from talking to people in Seoul is that things

:44:56.:44:59.

are less tense there than they are here in some ways because it's a

:45:00.:45:03.

state of normal. Dot. Not a normal occurrence, but they are used to

:45:04.:45:06.

dealing with the American threat. They have a new president who

:45:07.:45:09.

recently met with President Trump and he is open to talks with North

:45:10.:45:15.

Korea. But they are not open to stopping joint military exercises.

:45:16.:45:19.

So Kim Jong-un has a difficult needle to thread here, if he is

:45:20.:45:25.

going to try to make peace with the South Koreans for throwing these

:45:26.:45:29.

missiles towards Japan every so often. Very insightful. Thank you.

:45:30.:45:36.

We are talking about Spam today, Spam is 80 years old would you

:45:37.:45:43.

believe? Not this ten, this one is fresh! You will be cracking it open

:45:44.:45:48.

later on! Thanks for your recipes and all of your facts coming in. Did

:45:49.:45:54.

you know... There will be a whole day of this! There are 13 varieties

:45:55.:46:00.

of Spam, two of those righties were introduced to celebrate the 75th

:46:01.:46:04.

anniversary, black pepper and jalapeno -- varieties. You can get

:46:05.:46:14.

bacon Spam, cheese Spam and roasted turkey flavour Spam. Lots of people

:46:15.:46:19.

saying how popular it is in Hawaii. Every single year in April they all

:46:20.:46:24.

get together in Honolulu and they have the Spam Jam to celebrate all

:46:25.:46:30.

things Spam. How are we going to eat hours? With a spoon. Can't wait!

:46:31.:46:34.

Good morning. No Spam here, that's for sure, we've come to the south

:46:35.:46:45.

concourse at Wimbledon and you can see behind me Centre Court, there's

:46:46.:46:49.

lots of entrances, this is the south-west one, but look at this,

:46:50.:46:54.

this is resplendent in the morning sunshine, the members enclosure here

:46:55.:46:58.

and the competitors complex, the flowers are there, dark green and

:46:59.:47:03.

purple with the white introduced in 1909, the previous colours were

:47:04.:47:06.

identical with the Royal Marines and that's why they were changed, they

:47:07.:47:10.

were blue, yellow and red and the windows at the top being cleaned

:47:11.:47:14.

this morning so they are sparkly for later. They will be because the

:47:15.:47:19.

sunshine is out, the temperature here is rising and it will continue

:47:20.:47:23.

to rise a bit as we go through the day. The forecast is dry at

:47:24.:47:28.

Wimbledon today. A lot of sunshine and if you're coming down then bear

:47:29.:47:32.

that in mind and it will turn the mid-as we go through the day, but

:47:33.:47:36.

maximum temperatures of 28 and 29 or even as high as 30 -- turn humid.

:47:37.:47:49.

Warm in the south. As we go through the day, in southern counties, lots

:47:50.:47:54.

of sunshine, beautiful start, pleasantly warm already with a light

:47:55.:47:58.

breeze. As we go north across England, a little bit more cloud

:47:59.:48:02.

until we get to the north of England where we've got a weather front

:48:03.:48:05.

producing drizzle, coastal mist and hill fog. That extends into southern

:48:06.:48:10.

Scotland, Northern Scotland will be dry, bright and sunny Abe chilly

:48:11.:48:14.

start and in Northern Ireland, also a fine start -- and sunny, a chilly

:48:15.:48:26.

start. An absolute outside chance in the south-west you could see some

:48:27.:48:29.

thundery showers but you would be unlucky if you catch one. As we go

:48:30.:48:35.

further towards southern counties, back into the sunshine with

:48:36.:48:39.

temperatures continuing to romp up quickly. Through the course of the

:48:40.:48:43.

day the weather front dangling across southern Scotland and

:48:44.:48:46.

northern England will continue to break up, especially in south-west

:48:47.:48:50.

Scotland and north-west England. In north-east England and south-east

:48:51.:48:56.

Scotland we will hang onto this. Temperatures across England and

:48:57.:49:00.

Wales, the mid-to-high 20 is, especially in the south. In north

:49:01.:49:04.

Wales and northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, that little

:49:05.:49:09.

bit lower. Through the evening and overnight we will start importing

:49:10.:49:12.

thunderstorms across southern counties, some will be heavy. A new

:49:13.:49:16.

weather front will show its hand across western Scotland and Northern

:49:17.:49:20.

Ireland by the end of the night, introducing rain. Temperature wise,

:49:21.:49:26.

ten to 11. Tomorrow the rain in the north rattles through quickly and

:49:27.:49:29.

later another weather front comes to the west of Scotland, thunderstorms

:49:30.:49:33.

push north through the day. Some of those will be torrential with large

:49:34.:49:37.

hail in them but a lot will miss them all together, staying dry, hot,

:49:38.:49:43.

sunny and humid. Again tomorrow there's the potential for

:49:44.:49:46.

temperatures to reach 30 in parts of southern England. As we head into

:49:47.:49:51.

Friday, a lot of dry weather, fair bit of sunshine around, still hot

:49:52.:49:56.

and humid in the south-east, 29 or 30 possible, showers in noughties

:49:57.:50:00.

England and later in the day the next system shows its hand, coming

:50:01.:50:05.

into Northern Ireland introducing some rain -- north-east England. If

:50:06.:50:10.

you like it hot and sticky, we're certainly in for that especially in

:50:11.:50:12.

southern areas. Thanks, Carol, we will see you later

:50:13.:50:20.

and more from Sally later with some game, set, mug in the queue. Nobody

:50:21.:50:25.

in the queue is going to get angry my's record. 14 in 30 seconds! --

:50:26.:50:29.

Andy Murray's record. It's ten years to the day

:50:30.:50:30.

since interest rates last went up. Since they've hit record lows,

:50:31.:50:36.

Ben's been looking at what it means Interest rates are set every month

:50:37.:50:39.

by the Bank of England. But the last time they went up

:50:40.:50:43.

was ten years ago today. The cost of borrowing affects us

:50:44.:51:01.

all. It determines what we pay for our mortgage, how credit cards and

:51:02.:51:05.

loans. It also sets the way that we get interest on any savings. Take a

:51:06.:51:10.

look at the last ten years and one thing is pretty clear, rates have

:51:11.:51:15.

been going in One Direction and that's down, and it all began at the

:51:16.:51:21.

height of the financial crisis. The UK economy was put on emergency

:51:22.:51:25.

light support to keep it ticking over while the world's financial

:51:26.:51:31.

system was in turmoil. Between 2008 and 2009, rates were slashed from

:51:32.:51:37.

nearly 6% to just 0.5% and they've been at those record lows for a very

:51:38.:51:41.

long time. Just when people thought rates might start going up again,

:51:42.:51:47.

the Brexit vote created even more economic uncertainty and so rates

:51:48.:51:52.

were slashed again in August last year to just 0.25%. Low interest

:51:53.:51:58.

rates mean it's cheaper for businesses to borrow a to invest or

:51:59.:52:03.

expand, and it also means cheaper mortgages, loans and credit cards

:52:04.:52:11.

for all of us. But at what cost? It's bad news for savers, they've

:52:12.:52:15.

lost out with record low returns and low interest rates tend to push up

:52:16.:52:19.

inflation, so that means higher prices for everyone.

:52:20.:52:25.

Let's talk to Doctor John Glen from Cranfield School

:52:26.:52:28.

In that explanation I've touched on why interest rates have done what

:52:29.:52:35.

they have, I described it as life-support for the economy and it

:52:36.:52:40.

was. If we think back to 2008 the economy was in turmoil and the Bank

:52:41.:52:43.

of England needed to do something and this is something they could do.

:52:44.:52:47.

The economy was collapsing, we made the extreme decision to cut interest

:52:48.:52:52.

rates to historically low levels, that allow growth so at the back of

:52:53.:52:59.

2010 and the back of 2012 the economy grew as strongly as any

:53:00.:53:04.

economy globally as a result of our decision. Rates have been so low

:53:05.:53:11.

since March 2009, it's incredible they have been at that level and a

:53:12.:53:15.

whole generation of borrowers who have never seen an interest rate

:53:16.:53:19.

rise? 2.5 million households who have mortgages have never seen an

:53:20.:53:23.

increase in that mortgage rate, so they are used to paying low rates of

:53:24.:53:28.

interest and if interest rates increased significantly that would

:53:29.:53:32.

impact their household budgets in a meaningful way. For people who have

:53:33.:53:36.

never seen that increase it would come as a big shock, the amount they

:53:37.:53:39.

are paying each month on their mortgage, credit card or loan would

:53:40.:53:45.

go up? Yes, but we have to be realistic, if we saw 0.5% increase

:53:46.:53:49.

that would be something most households could cope with, if we

:53:50.:53:54.

went back to the 5% interest rate we were paying ten years ago that would

:53:55.:53:58.

be an enormous strain on household budgets. Where are we? America has

:53:59.:54:03.

started raising its interest rate and there's pressure on other

:54:04.:54:07.

countries to do the same and the Bank of England, a few on the

:54:08.:54:10.

ratesetting committee think it is time? The vote in June was 5/3,

:54:11.:54:17.

people are starting to think that it's time to increase interest

:54:18.:54:21.

rates. We are seeing an economy that is very close to full employment,

:54:22.:54:26.

there are dangers of inflation because of Brexit and increased

:54:27.:54:29.

import prices but on the other hand we are seeing relatively poor growth

:54:30.:54:33.

of around 1.5% this year and next year so the worry about growth at

:54:34.:54:38.

the minute is overriding worry is the Bank of England has about

:54:39.:54:41.

inflation. I want to talk about inflation because that is starting

:54:42.:54:45.

to creep up and cheap money means we will spend and that is pushing up

:54:46.:54:50.

prices, the flipside as I mentioned in the report. It is but at the at

:54:51.:54:59.

the moment the inflation is being caused by a reduction in the value

:55:00.:55:02.

of the pound and external factors, although external prices have abated

:55:03.:55:06.

recently but at the moment the Bank of England things on balance the

:55:07.:55:09.

inflation worries are less than the worry about growth going forward.

:55:10.:55:12.

What happens next, when do rates start to go up? They start to go up

:55:13.:55:16.

when the economy starts to recover, we see an amount of recovery when we

:55:17.:55:19.

have recovered from Brexit uncertainty at the end of 2018 and

:55:20.:55:24.

you might see one or two minor increases over that period, but it

:55:25.:55:28.

will be posted 2018 before we actually see any significant

:55:29.:55:33.

increases in interest rates -- post-2018. Thanks very much, John

:55:34.:55:38.

Glenn. More about that from me after 7am.

:55:39.:55:41.

See you then. Thanks very much indeed, Ben.

:55:42.:55:42.

You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:55:43.:55:44.

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

:55:45.:55:55.

Hastings, that is the Wimbledon queue preparing to get in on day

:55:56.:55:59.

three of the Wimbledon Championships. And once again it is

:56:00.:56:04.

extremely orderly. We do love a clean

:56:05.:59:24.

Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

:59:25.:59:27.

Now, though, it's back to Dan and Louise.

:59:28.:59:29.

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

:59:30.:00:16.

Anger and frustration as the government deadline to rehouse all

:00:17.:00:27.

Grenfell Tower survivors parsers. -- passes. Many are still in hotels. I

:00:28.:00:37.

miss my broom -- room. My daughter is losing her focus.

:00:38.:00:42.

After an angry meeting last night with the police,

:00:43.:00:45.

residents say their questions still aren't being answered.

:00:46.:00:47.

Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is.

:00:48.:00:50.

Good morning, it's Wednesday July 5th.

:00:51.:01:04.

Victims of stalking and harassment are being left at risk,

:01:05.:01:11.

because of failings by police and prosecutors.

:01:12.:01:14.

A new report blames poor investigations and a lack

:01:15.:01:17.

An average debt of more than ?50,000 for university students in England.

:01:18.:01:23.

A new report says they'll be paying it off into their 50s.

:01:24.:01:29.

It's ten years to the day since the cost of borrowing

:01:30.:01:32.

They've been at record lows since then, but why and what does it

:01:33.:01:37.

mean for borrowers, savers and the economy?

:01:38.:01:39.

Some of these lucky people might get to see Andy Murray on centre court

:01:40.:01:53.

later today. That's after two of his main rivals said there may have to

:01:54.:01:58.

be the rule change after their opponents retired early due to

:01:59.:02:02.

injury. And Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de France. He had a

:02:03.:02:06.

collision with Peter Sagan, who has been disqualified from the race.

:02:07.:02:12.

And the sun is beating down. Temperatures in the south of England

:02:13.:02:17.

at the moment are 16 Celsius. In the north of Scotland, in the sunshine,

:02:18.:02:22.

only four degrees. A real contrast. Hot and humid in the south, and we

:02:23.:02:27.

have a weather front producing cloud and drizzle in northern England.

:02:28.:02:30.

That will improve through the day. More in 15 minutes.

:02:31.:02:35.

See you later. And Sally will be back with the sport later.

:02:36.:02:38.

Most of the families who lost their homes

:02:39.:02:41.

in the devastating Grenfell Tower fire are still living in hotels,

:02:42.:02:44.

despite government pledges to rehouse them all by today.

:02:45.:02:47.

There was also anger and frustration at a meeting with police

:02:48.:02:50.

and the Westminster Coroner last night, where residents demanded

:02:51.:02:52.

to know why there have been no arrests.

:02:53.:02:54.

The coroner is said to have described the scene

:02:55.:02:57.

inside the building as "apocalyptic".

:02:58.:02:58.

This was the first opportunity for families to put their questions

:02:59.:03:04.

directly to police and the Westminster coroner.

:03:05.:03:08.

One reason this private meeting lasted more than 3.5 hours.

:03:09.:03:12.

It's understood relatives were told in graphic detail the challenge that

:03:13.:03:15.

forensic teams are facing in even trying to find DNA

:03:16.:03:17.

They say the information they are getting isn't good enough.

:03:18.:03:24.

We personally asked, where is our family?

:03:25.:03:27.

We want to know, is our families' bodies still there?

:03:28.:03:29.

Whatever it is, we want to know exactly what it is,

:03:30.:03:35.

And the answers that were coming back were,

:03:36.:03:38.

"We don't know, we don't know, we don't know."

:03:39.:03:45.

Today is the deadline set by Theresa May

:03:46.:03:47.

to rehouse the 158 families made homeless by the disaster.

:03:48.:03:51.

According to the Grenfell response team, that target has been met,

:03:52.:03:55.

with 139 formal offers made, but just nine have been accepted.

:03:56.:03:59.

Lawyers for survivors say most of the accommodation is

:04:00.:04:01.

My daughter, she is losing her focus because it's not her place. They

:04:02.:04:16.

need something suitable for them. Something with dignity. That's what

:04:17.:04:18.

we are looking. -- for. Three weeks after the tragedy,

:04:19.:04:24.

police still maintain their investigation will be

:04:25.:04:26.

exhaustive and will bring the answers that the families

:04:27.:04:28.

desperately deserve, Many questions still to be answered,

:04:29.:04:40.

not least why these families aren't in permanent accommodation at the

:04:41.:04:42.

moment. We'll be speaking to the spokeswoman

:04:43.:04:43.

of the Grenfell Fire Response Team Victims of harassment and stalking

:04:44.:04:47.

in England and Wales are being left at risk because of failings

:04:48.:04:52.

by police and prosecutors, Two watchdogs found that crimes

:04:53.:04:54.

weren't being recorded, investigations were poorly conducted

:04:55.:04:58.

and legal protection wasn't offered They examined 112 cases in detail

:04:59.:05:00.

and concluded that none had been Officers and prosecutors

:05:01.:05:05.

were identifying cases in isolation, whereas by its very nature both

:05:06.:05:09.

stalking and harassment occurs as a result of really pernicious

:05:10.:05:17.

and persistent offending and officers and prosecutors

:05:18.:05:19.

were missing that, which meant that The United States has confirmed that

:05:20.:05:22.

a weapon fired into the Sea of Japan by North Korea was an

:05:23.:05:34.

intercontinental ballistic missile. In response, the US

:05:35.:05:36.

and South Korea carried out Officers from the US and China said

:05:37.:05:50.

self restraint was the toys that could change at any time.

:05:51.:05:53.

For the latest, let's speak to our Beijing correspondent Stephen

:05:54.:05:56.

You hear the words used to describe the situation. Things have certainly

:05:57.:06:03.

stepped up a notch. I think they have. There's no doubt about that at

:06:04.:06:08.

all. The realisation that North Korea can reach Alaska, although not

:06:09.:06:15.

the lower states of the US, clearly raises the stakes. What the military

:06:16.:06:20.

on the peninsular have been doing is warning with words, saying, as you

:06:21.:06:27.

say, that the difference between war and peace is self restraint and we

:06:28.:06:31.

can choose to change our decision on that. But also letting off live

:06:32.:06:37.

missiles into the ocean to the west of the country demonstrated that the

:06:38.:06:44.

alliance has the firepower, should things turn from the Armistice to

:06:45.:06:51.

full-blown war. So it's a serious matter. I don't think a red line,

:06:52.:06:57.

the famous red line, has been crushed -- crossed yet. Back in

:06:58.:07:04.

January President Trump said an intercontinental missile won't

:07:05.:07:08.

happen. As bluntly as that. This missile seems to be

:07:09.:07:11.

intercontinental, but it's not proven that they can get the warhead

:07:12.:07:15.

back into the atmosphere and it is not proven to be accurate. So we're

:07:16.:07:20.

not quite there yet, but the big question, and we don't know the

:07:21.:07:27.

answer, is whether President Trump has ruled out war, like President

:07:28.:07:29.

Obama did. Police repeatedly failed a disabled

:07:30.:07:31.

refugee who sought their help before being murdered in Bristol four years

:07:32.:07:34.

ago, according to a report by the Independent Police

:07:35.:07:37.

Complaints Commission. Bijan Ebrahimi made more than 80

:07:38.:07:40.

calls to police, mainly to report racial abuse,

:07:41.:07:43.

criminal damage and threats to kill. He was eventually beaten to death

:07:44.:07:49.

by a neighbour who wrongly believed Avon and Somerset police say

:07:50.:07:52.

they have made changes and have The average student debt

:07:53.:07:57.

for graduates in England is set That's a lot of money and no doubt

:07:58.:08:18.

takes a long time to pay that back? Pretty stark figures this morning

:08:19.:08:23.

from the IFS, suggesting students will pay into their 50s before they

:08:24.:08:27.

start to make a dent into that debt they accumulate while at university.

:08:28.:08:31.

Did you suggest that if you take out a loan to cover your student debts

:08:32.:08:36.

of about ?45,000, that would cover you for about three or four years.

:08:37.:08:41.

You would end up paying about ?51,000 by the time you put interest

:08:42.:08:45.

on top of that, so understandably people will be paying it for a

:08:46.:08:49.

longtime. They also say it's a double whammy because there is a

:08:50.:08:53.

threshold at which you have to start paying it back and that's ?21,000.

:08:54.:08:59.

That's not gone up, so more people are going to have to pay it. The

:09:00.:09:05.

really worrying finding is that the average interest rate is about 6.1%.

:09:06.:09:09.

That's how much you pay in interest. I've been talking this morning about

:09:10.:09:14.

how we have all been dealing with a record low interest rate. The Bank

:09:15.:09:19.

of England is just 0.25%. So there's a big question about why student

:09:20.:09:25.

loans are charging 6.1%. A lot of money students have to pay back,

:09:26.:09:29.

paying well into their 50s, with the average debt reaching ?51,000.

:09:30.:09:35.

That's a lot of bar jobs. Thank you.

:09:36.:09:39.

It was one of the key promises from Theresa May in the wake

:09:40.:09:43.

of the Grenfell Tower tragedy - that all survivors would be rehoused

:09:44.:09:46.

Despite that pledge only nine offers have been accepted and many families

:09:47.:09:52.

So, three weeks after that devastating fire,

:09:53.:09:56.

why are so many people still not living in a place

:09:57.:09:59.

In a moment we'll speak to Eleanor Kelly,

:10:00.:10:04.

from the Grenfell Response Team, but first our reporter

:10:05.:10:06.

Frankie McCamley went to meet one man who lived in the tower

:10:07.:10:10.

Sid-Ali and his daughter Hayam and his wife lived on the 15th floor

:10:11.:10:18.

They've now been living in a hotel for three weeks.

:10:19.:10:24.

It's not comfortable and it doesn't feel like home.

:10:25.:10:28.

I miss my room and all the memories I had, my baby albums,

:10:29.:10:34.

She's losing her focus because this isn't her place,

:10:35.:10:45.

I find it hard to sleep, I have nightmares about if it

:10:46.:10:54.

happens again, if I wake up and I see fire in the building.

:10:55.:11:01.

I feel I have no power to take away all this pain from her.

:11:02.:11:12.

If I could, I would, I would take all the pain and put

:11:13.:11:16.

The families say they have received calls of support from local services

:11:17.:11:23.

but what they really want is for someone to visit them.

:11:24.:11:26.

The people in my building, they were very close to me

:11:27.:11:29.

and they were like family and seeing them go wasn't good.

:11:30.:11:42.

As the family struggle to come to terms with what happened,

:11:43.:11:45.

they say they have been offered a two bedroom flat just over a mile

:11:46.:11:49.

away, but Sid-Ali says it's too far from Hayam's school and it's

:11:50.:11:52.

They need to see us as a victim and treat us with dignity,

:11:53.:12:00.

we're not numbers, we're not numbers.

:12:01.:12:04.

Three weeks they haven't found a solution.

:12:05.:12:17.

The council says it's made 139 offers of accommodation

:12:18.:12:19.

to Grenfell Tower residents, nine of which have been accepted.

:12:20.:12:22.

It says the three-week target of offering temporary homes to those

:12:23.:12:25.

affected has been met, but for this family the money

:12:26.:12:28.

and support they've been offered has simply not been good enough.

:12:29.:12:34.

They're putting a price on us, they give ?5,000 each and ?500,

:12:35.:12:39.

Have you got any faith in their services any more?

:12:40.:12:54.

No, I have faith in the residence, I have faith in the community,

:12:55.:12:58.

I have faith in the people who live their lives...

:12:59.:13:01.

My faith is there, my faith is there.

:13:02.:13:10.

Let's speak now to Eleanor Kelly, Chief Executive of Southwark

:13:11.:13:15.

Council and spokesperson of the Grenfell

:13:16.:13:17.

I know you were listening to that report and you really get a sense of

:13:18.:13:25.

what a predicament these people who lived in the tower are in. I

:13:26.:13:29.

understand you have made them an offer, but for this family it isn't

:13:30.:13:34.

acceptable because it isn't close to her school. When will you make

:13:35.:13:38.

offers that will be acceptable to these families? We are working our

:13:39.:13:43.

way through the offers to all of the families and many families are now

:13:44.:13:48.

on their second or third offer. I think what your piece demonstrated

:13:49.:13:55.

is that there is an enormous emotional impact on people. It is

:13:56.:13:59.

just moving out of one home to look for another. That's why the level of

:14:00.:14:04.

acceptances are now so low. It's now at 14. But it is very low because

:14:05.:14:10.

people don't want to move twice. They are looking for their permanent

:14:11.:14:14.

home and everybody would be able to understand that. Your piece also

:14:15.:14:18.

demonstrates the need for a package of support, emotional, financial and

:14:19.:14:23.

social, around the people whose been made homeless and in many respects

:14:24.:14:32.

destitute from Grenfell Tower. Just looking at the quote, I respect what

:14:33.:14:38.

you say, but you have missed the deadline. On the 28th of June will

:14:39.:14:44.

who lost their home will be rehoused by the fifth of July and in housing

:14:45.:14:50.

acceptable to them. This isn't happening. The original target given

:14:51.:14:55.

by the PM was that all of the people who have lost their homes at

:14:56.:15:00.

Grenfell Tower and Grenfell Walk would be offered suitable

:15:01.:15:03.

accommodation, matched to their housing needs, and that the process

:15:04.:15:09.

with gore through. 139 of the households have been offered the

:15:10.:15:12.

accommodation and 19 have not yet been in a position either with their

:15:13.:15:21.

family or themselves not to engage with the housing authorities at this

:15:22.:15:24.

time and that's understandable. I think the issue is about looking at

:15:25.:15:29.

the individual families and looking at their decisions at this time.

:15:30.:15:38.

Three weeks is not a longtime to recover. In terms of the offers that

:15:39.:15:46.

are made, people go to areas they thought they wanted to go to and

:15:47.:15:49.

when they goes there they say, I can't come here. We have to

:15:50.:15:52.

understand that and be emotionally responsive to the fact that it will

:15:53.:15:58.

take people along time to really work through where they want to go.

:15:59.:16:02.

That's why very many of the families are choosing to stay in the

:16:03.:16:05.

emergency hotel accommodation for the moment and make a permanent

:16:06.:16:10.

move. We have to understand that and we have to deal with each individual

:16:11.:16:15.

family and their circumstances as appropriately and as sensitively as

:16:16.:16:21.

we can. Are you doing it sensitively? We heard from the

:16:22.:16:24.

father, saying they've received calls. No one has visited them. I

:16:25.:16:30.

think the issue is in relation to... In terms of anybody who is breathed,

:16:31.:16:34.

they have a family liaison officer. -- bereaved. We know some people

:16:35.:16:39.

have chosen to have their key workers contact them by telephone

:16:40.:16:45.

and other people want to see them face-to-face. The particular example

:16:46.:16:49.

you gave is one where we would have to look into why the key worker

:16:50.:16:52.

isn't visiting face-to-face. At the point that was made by the young

:16:53.:16:57.

girl in your programme is that she needs contact from the community.

:16:58.:17:00.

She wants contact from the surviving neighbours, to be able to be clear

:17:01.:17:06.

that they are not alone and they aren't the only people from their

:17:07.:17:10.

floor or building who survived and that's a really important point.

:17:11.:17:13.

They don't just need contact from the authorities, they need contact

:17:14.:17:18.

and space and understanding as a community

:17:19.:17:21.

What are you going to do to help her with that crazy they are in

:17:22.:17:28.

accommodation that is in their home, how do you help them have that

:17:29.:17:32.

support, you seem to be putting it back on the community? I'm not doing

:17:33.:17:37.

that at all, the fact is we are working closely with call groups of

:17:38.:17:40.

community organisations to put that support in place and we're also

:17:41.:17:44.

looking to see what facilities need to be provided in a much more

:17:45.:17:49.

nurturing and smaller and more community led space, rather than the

:17:50.:17:52.

facilities currently provided in the Westway sports centre. When will

:17:53.:17:59.

these families be in permanent accommodation that they find

:18:00.:18:03.

acceptable, that they're happy with? When you're dealing with 158

:18:04.:18:08.

families, of which only 14 have currently accepted the temporary

:18:09.:18:12.

accommodation, you have to factor in it goes at the pace of each

:18:13.:18:16.

individual family. It isn't just about identification of appropriate

:18:17.:18:22.

properties in Kensington and the, Westminster, Hammersmith and Fulham,

:18:23.:18:25.

it's about going at the pace of each individual as to what it is that

:18:26.:18:31.

they want for themselves -- Kensington and Chelsea Council be

:18:32.:18:34.

that's the important point and that's why you can't put a timeframe

:18:35.:18:40.

on it and rushing people, it's about understanding the impact on these

:18:41.:18:46.

families -- Kensington and the. It's about making the right decisions and

:18:47.:18:50.

doing the right thing to help them move forward. Let's be clear, these

:18:51.:18:54.

people will need emotional and social support for a long time.

:18:55.:18:59.

Thanks very much for your time on Breakfast.

:19:00.:19:02.

We want to know your response as well. You can contact us on Twitter,

:19:03.:19:08.

social media and Facebook. Carol is at Wimbledon, hot and humid

:19:09.:19:18.

for many parts of the UK overnight, in those lonely corridors between

:19:19.:19:23.

the outside courts? That's right. Hot and humid today for many

:19:24.:19:28.

southern areas in particular but let me show you Court ten, just in time,

:19:29.:19:33.

the ground staff are busy pulling back the cover. On the outside

:19:34.:19:38.

courts there are six members of the team, the court attendants, who pull

:19:39.:19:42.

back the covers and it takes them between a minute and a minute and a

:19:43.:19:47.

half, it's a boom system so they use real brute force and they're doing a

:19:48.:19:52.

fine job, done so neatly! If you're on centre court or Court one, there

:19:53.:19:56.

are 17 groundstaff that do it, it's a different system, a tent cover,

:19:57.:20:01.

they grab hold of the handles and they run with it after the net has

:20:02.:20:05.

been dropped. The record time they have done that in is I believe 17

:20:06.:20:11.

seconds. It's done on a numerical basis, from zero to eight, if it is

:20:12.:20:16.

zero the groundstaff know it will be sunny, nothing to worry about but

:20:17.:20:19.

the minute it changes to one they are on standby and when it gets to

:20:20.:20:26.

two, the umpire can stop play because of a light shower. No light

:20:27.:20:31.

showers in the forecast today, what we have is a dry day with a lot of

:20:32.:20:34.

sunshine. Increasingly it will be hot and it

:20:35.:20:39.

will be humid. Maximum temperatures at Wimbledon are likely to hit 28 or

:20:40.:20:46.

29, maybe even 30 in light winds so if you're coming down, bear that in

:20:47.:20:50.

mind, slip, slap, slop. For most today it will be humid and warm in

:20:51.:20:55.

the coming days but a cool stuff for some, but not in the south, at 9am

:20:56.:21:00.

20 in London and Ipswich in the morning sunshine. As we drift across

:21:01.:21:06.

the Midlands, sunshine into Northern England, more cloud, a weather front

:21:07.:21:10.

is decaying but still producing drizzle, especially in north-east

:21:11.:21:13.

England and some hill fog and coastal fog and that cloud extends

:21:14.:21:17.

into southern Scotland. Northern Scotland is co-, only four at the

:21:18.:21:22.

moment but sunny. In Northern Ireland, a brilliant start if you

:21:23.:21:26.

like it sunny and pleasantly warm, temperature continuing to rise.

:21:27.:21:31.

North Wales, more cloud, breaking up in the morning, south Wales and

:21:32.:21:34.

south-west England back into the sunshine. An outside chance in

:21:35.:21:37.

south-west England of a thundery shower this morning but consider

:21:38.:21:43.

yourself lucky if you do. Drifting from Gloucestershire to Dorset,

:21:44.:21:46.

Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, back into the sunshine

:21:47.:21:49.

and rising temperatures. Through the day where we have the weather front

:21:50.:21:53.

in northern England and southern Scotland it will break up, brighten

:21:54.:21:57.

up, especially in south-west Scotland and north-west England so

:21:58.:22:00.

the temperature will rise here but where we hang on to more cloud in

:22:01.:22:04.

the north-east or south-east of Scotland we are looking at lower

:22:05.:22:08.

temperatures and feeling chillier. Highs today at 230 in the south of

:22:09.:22:12.

England, in the north of Scotland, Northern Ireland, in the sunshine,

:22:13.:22:17.

high teens or the low 20s. Through this evening and overnight we import

:22:18.:22:21.

thunderstorms from the near continent, especially later in the

:22:22.:22:24.

night. Also a weather front coming in across Northern Ireland and west

:22:25.:22:28.

Scotland introducing rain. Tomorrow that rain quite quickly with across

:22:29.:22:33.

Scotland and Northern Ireland and then another system comes into the

:22:34.:22:38.

west. Also thunderstorms in the south travelling north. Some of

:22:39.:22:42.

those will be torrential downpours with large hail embedded in them,

:22:43.:22:45.

some of us will miss them all together and have a hot and humid

:22:46.:22:49.

and sunny day but temperature wise we are still in the area of 30,

:22:50.:22:54.

somewhere across southern England and south Wales too. As we head into

:22:55.:22:59.

Friday, the thunderstorm risk diminishes, one or two first thing

:23:00.:23:03.

in the south-east but that's it, then it will be largely dry and

:23:04.:23:06.

sunny. Some showers in north-east England and later in the day the

:23:07.:23:11.

next system shows its hand across Northern Ireland. Still in the high

:23:12.:23:15.

20s in the south but more comfortable for the rest of the UK.

:23:16.:23:18.

Thank you very much, Carol. It looks glorious. Back with you later. Very

:23:19.:23:25.

busy getting everything ready and Sally will later be talking about a

:23:26.:23:29.

bit of Wimbledon controversy, people have been dropping out early, you

:23:30.:23:35.

get ?35,000 for just turning up to Wimbledon. Players are injured and

:23:36.:23:38.

then they still go and they still play. They know they have a bad

:23:39.:23:45.

back, they go, take the muggy, retire halfway through the second

:23:46.:23:49.

set, happened to Djokovic and Federer yesterday -- take the money.

:23:50.:23:53.

Quite a few fans have been moaning about that. Feel free. We like to be

:23:54.:23:59.

the conduit for your moaning. Send it our way and we will pass it on to

:24:00.:24:02.

Sally. If you are in need of certain

:24:03.:24:02.

operations or require access to mental health services then

:24:03.:24:05.

you may find that they're no longer routinely funded in

:24:06.:24:09.

some areas in England. That's According to a Freedom

:24:10.:24:10.

of Information request published It shows there's been a surge

:24:11.:24:13.

in the number of funding requests that doctors are now

:24:14.:24:17.

being forced to make on behalf Here to discuss the issue further

:24:18.:24:20.

is GP Doctor Fari Ahmed. Thank you so much for joining us.

:24:21.:24:29.

You assume some of these things are routine, but is it changing? Yes,

:24:30.:24:33.

that is the short answer. There's not enough money and CCGs all over

:24:34.:24:43.

the UK having to make decisions about what to fund and what not to

:24:44.:24:47.

fund. Individual funding requests were a special way of accessing

:24:48.:24:52.

treatments or medication that aren't routine, if you have a case for it

:24:53.:24:56.

you apply to the people that hold the purse strings and you say this

:24:57.:25:00.

is the case and the reasons, can we make an exception for this person?

:25:01.:25:04.

They were good but what seems to be happening now is for things that

:25:05.:25:08.

wouldn't normally need special requests, like hips and knees,

:25:09.:25:12.

people in some areas are having to do that. Is it coming down to

:25:13.:25:17.

funding essentially? Again it is a funding issue? Yes. The reality is

:25:18.:25:24.

everyone knows there's not enough money in the NHS, we can't fund

:25:25.:25:27.

everything for everybody all the time and we don't have any

:25:28.:25:31.

politicians or people brave enough to say we can't fund everything so

:25:32.:25:35.

there are all these little smoke and mirrors and ways of not funding

:25:36.:25:39.

certain things in certain areas and what we actually need is someone to

:25:40.:25:44.

say at NHS England, look, this is what we can fund and this is what we

:25:45.:25:49.

can't, let's be honest and tell people. For example if you're in one

:25:50.:25:53.

area you would get your knee or hip operation but somewhere else you

:25:54.:25:59.

wouldn't? We are back to postcode lottery again. It's not transparent,

:26:00.:26:04.

it's not clear why... There's not enough money for everything in the

:26:05.:26:08.

NHS, we all understand that, but how does it get allocated and who makes

:26:09.:26:12.

those decisions? It is supposedly left up to clinical groups but if

:26:13.:26:17.

they don't get enough money to fund what they need then something has to

:26:18.:26:22.

be funded and something isn't. Frustrating for patients as it is

:26:23.:26:27.

frustrating for you, and more work for GPs? Yes. If somebody needs an

:26:28.:26:32.

individual funding request then you have a huge mound of paperwork and

:26:33.:26:39.

they are tiresome to fill out and you need the input of other people

:26:40.:26:43.

and you need to build a case for your patient and then it goes in

:26:44.:26:47.

front of a panel and a SS it and look at it and they consider the

:26:48.:26:52.

funding. In the meantime the patient is left in limbo -- assess it.

:26:53.:26:56.

You're still their GP and you have to help them with what's going on

:26:57.:27:00.

and there's all sorts of knock on effects. If it's an operation for

:27:01.:27:03.

their knee or hip then they are still in pain, you want the physio

:27:04.:27:07.

to see them and they still see you and it's got psychological effects

:27:08.:27:12.

on them, work, family, huge! We have to deal with it because we are

:27:13.:27:16.

front-line. Thanks for coming to talk to us.

:27:17.:27:20.

Another funding issue for the NHS, we seem to get at least a few a day!

:27:21.:27:25.

I hope somebody is listening to it and they will make some changes!

:27:26.:27:27.

Thanks so much! You're watching

:27:28.:27:28.

Breakfast from BBC News. Think

:27:29.:27:30.

of Snapchat and you probably think of these, fun filters,

:27:31.:27:40.

but we'll have more on a new feature causing concern among some child

:27:41.:27:43.

safety campaigners. Time now to get the news,

:27:44.:27:45.

travel and weather where you are. It is all about location and whether

:27:46.:27:54.

you are sharing your location and if you even know you're doing it. All

:27:55.:27:56.

those questions soon. Now, though, it's back

:27:57.:31:19.

to Dan and Louise. Hello, this is Breakfast,

:31:20.:31:21.

with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. We will be at Wimbledon shortly. The

:31:22.:31:37.

main stories this morning: Most of the families

:31:38.:31:41.

who lost their homes in the devastating Grenfell Tower

:31:42.:31:44.

fire are still living in hotels, despite government pledges

:31:45.:31:47.

to rehouse them all by today. Officials say everyone has been made

:31:48.:31:51.

an offer of temporary accommodation, but lawyers for the families say

:31:52.:31:53.

many are unsuitable. There was also anger

:31:54.:31:57.

at a meeting with police and the Westminster Coroner last

:31:58.:31:59.

night, where residents demanded to know why there

:32:00.:32:02.

have been no arrests. speaking to us in the last

:32:03.:32:13.

half-hour, a spokeswoman for the Grenfell Tower response team said

:32:14.:32:18.

the council would continue to try to find a home for all residents. When

:32:19.:32:23.

you are dealing with 158 families, of which only 14 have currently

:32:24.:32:26.

accepted accommodation, you have to factor in that it goes at the pace

:32:27.:32:30.

of each individual family and that's the important point and that's why

:32:31.:32:35.

you can't put a timescale on it, the course it's not about numbers and

:32:36.:32:40.

it's not about Russian people. It's about understanding the devastating

:32:41.:32:43.

impact on this family and each family have to have wraparound

:32:44.:32:46.

support in order to make the right decisions and get to the right

:32:47.:32:49.

decision, in order to be able to help them to move forward.

:32:50.:32:52.

Victims of harassment and stalking in England and Wales are being left

:32:53.:32:55.

at risk because of failings by police and prosecutors,

:32:56.:32:58.

Two watchdogs found that crimes weren't being recorded,

:32:59.:33:02.

investigations were poorly conducted and legal protection wasn't offered

:33:03.:33:04.

They examined 112 cases in detail and concluded that none had been

:33:05.:33:08.

The US and South Korea have jointly warned North Korea that war can't be

:33:09.:33:17.

ruled out, following Pyongyang's intercontinental ballistic missile

:33:18.:33:20.

The two countries' most senior officers based in South Korea said

:33:21.:33:25.

self restraint was a choice, which could change at any time.

:33:26.:33:32.

North Korea has quoted its leader Kim Jong-un taunting the US,

:33:33.:33:35.

calling its missile test a gift to the Americans

:33:36.:33:38.

Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign promoter of Islamist extremism

:33:39.:33:43.

in the UK, according to a foreign policy think tank.

:33:44.:33:47.

The Henry Jackson Society accuses Saudi individuals and foundations

:33:48.:33:50.

of exporting "an illiberal, bigoted ideology" and calls

:33:51.:33:52.

for the UK government's secret report into extremism

:33:53.:33:54.

The Saudi embassy in London has called the allegations

:33:55.:33:59.

The rationing of NHS treatments such as hip,

:34:00.:34:07.

knee and cataract operations, as well as mental health services,

:34:08.:34:10.

has increased significantly in England over the past four years

:34:11.:34:14.

according to a study published in the British Medical Journal.

:34:15.:34:19.

Growing financial pressure and increased demand for services

:34:20.:34:21.

has led some areas to withdraw funding for some procedures,

:34:22.:34:24.

leading to what doctors describe as a growing postcode lottery.

:34:25.:34:28.

Students starting their studies in England this September can expect

:34:29.:34:32.

to graduate with average debts of more than ?50,000.

:34:33.:34:36.

That's according to a report by the Institute for Fiscal Studies,

:34:37.:34:39.

which also indicates that students from the poorest backgrounds

:34:40.:34:41.

will leave university with the highest debts.

:34:42.:34:44.

The study's authors described the new 6.1% interest rates

:34:45.:34:47.

The Department of Education declined to comment.

:34:48.:34:58.

We are celebrating Spam today. It is the food that kept troops alive in

:34:59.:35:07.

the Second World War. It fed on willing children for many

:35:08.:35:11.

generations! The 80th birthday for Spam. We have an interesting

:35:12.:35:15.

relationship with it. Some people love it. 8 billion cans

:35:16.:35:23.

of the stuff have been sold. I am led to believe it's a delicacy in

:35:24.:35:27.

some parts of the world. Lots of people are sending in

:35:28.:35:34.

recipes. Someone says they made a Spam curry, it was revolting. Bill

:35:35.:35:40.

says he makes fried eggs sandwiches, with Spam.

:35:41.:35:45.

Grilled on toast, smothered in beans.

:35:46.:35:49.

And Caroline says she thinks she had Spam once and it turned her into a

:35:50.:35:54.

vegetarian. A fact. The highest it has of Spam -- eaters of Spam are

:35:55.:36:09.

from Guam. Thousands of cans of Spam every year. But 50% of deaths there

:36:10.:36:14.

are down to poor diet. They may not be linked! Potentially.

:36:15.:36:22.

Someone has very generously given us a tin of Spam, which we will try

:36:23.:36:26.

later. You will try later! Over to

:36:27.:36:31.

Wimbledon. Sally is out and about, with long queues again.

:36:32.:36:37.

I feel like I've never known so much about Spam in my life. Good morning.

:36:38.:36:44.

Good morning from the Wimbledon queue. This is the point where it

:36:45.:36:51.

all gets a bit tense, as tense as it will get here. More on that in a

:36:52.:36:55.

second. For a start on sport, I want to bring you this story from the

:36:56.:37:05.

Times. This happened yesterday. One tennis player threw his towel into

:37:06.:37:10.

the crowd. This young man caught it. This grown up man then took it off

:37:11.:37:16.

him and he was really quite disappointed about it. Jack found

:37:17.:37:24.

out about it and has said, if anybody knows the kid who tried to

:37:25.:37:28.

catch my towel, let me know. Judy Murray has spoken about the grown-up

:37:29.:37:32.

man. She says, if you are the bloke in the blue polo shirt you should be

:37:33.:37:36.

ashamed! I wonder what will happen? I think that we might get his own

:37:37.:37:41.

towel. Andy Murray is on court, due to be on centre court, today. He is

:37:42.:37:47.

a huge crowd favourite. That will be one to watch.

:37:48.:37:54.

Some controversy yesterday after two players went off after being

:37:55.:38:00.

injured. Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer said it might be time to

:38:01.:38:02.

change the rules. Martin Klizan lasted only 40 minutes

:38:03.:38:03.

against Djokovic before his calf And Roger Federer's match

:38:04.:38:06.

wasn't much longer. Alexander Dolgopolov was forced off

:38:07.:38:09.

with an ankle injury. Federer and Djokovic joked

:38:10.:38:12.

in the locker room that they should go out and play a practice set

:38:13.:38:15.

together, they'd had so little time There was more controversy

:38:16.:38:18.

after Australian Bernard Tomic said he was "bored" during his

:38:19.:38:23.

straight-sets defeat to Mischa He also admitted to using a medical

:38:24.:38:25.

time-out to try to slow down the match, which could

:38:26.:38:32.

earn him a fine. After going out in the first

:38:33.:38:39.

round for the last four years Kyle Edmund finally made it

:38:40.:38:43.

through to round two, when he beat his fellow

:38:44.:38:46.

Brit Alex Ward. He is on the programme

:38:47.:38:48.

with us here later. And women's world number one

:38:49.:38:50.

Angelique Kerber is through, after beating American

:38:51.:38:53.

qualifier Irina Falconi. Kerber was runner up last

:38:54.:38:55.

year to Serena Williams. Away from the tennis,

:38:56.:39:01.

a dramatic crash yesterday. Mark Cavendish is out

:39:02.:39:05.

of the Tour de France. World champion Peter Sagan

:39:06.:39:07.

was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:39:08.:39:10.

appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:39:11.:39:12.

and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one

:39:13.:39:17.

of the worst defeats Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:39:18.:39:20.

at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:39:21.:39:24.

team from Luxembourg and they lost

:39:25.:39:27.

2-0 on the night, Billy Monger, the teenage racing

:39:28.:39:29.

driver involved in a crash earlier this year which saw him

:39:30.:39:38.

lose his legs, has driven a hand It was the first time he'd driven

:39:39.:39:41.

since the accident 11 weeks ago. An online campaign went viral,

:39:42.:39:47.

raising almost ?1 million Isn't that brilliant? All morning

:39:48.:39:58.

we've been spending time with the very, very happy people sitting in

:39:59.:40:02.

the sunshine in the Wimbledon queue. One of the things we've been doing

:40:03.:40:09.

to keep them entertained is playing Game, Set, Mug. Good morning. You

:40:10.:40:14.

are volunteers for this morning and you haven't had much chance to

:40:15.:40:19.

practise. Very little time! Thoughts on technique's I'm thinking under

:40:20.:40:27.

arm. I've got three balls ready. Have you watched Andy Murray do his?

:40:28.:40:31.

That's interesting. He was ready with three balls ready to go. One

:40:32.:40:38.

word of advice, try the under arm first and then maybe try overarm.

:40:39.:40:43.

That's all I'm saying. Start the clock, 30 seconds. Starting, three,

:40:44.:40:52.

two, one, go! Come on! No, no, not one. Try over! Nearly! I think you

:40:53.:41:00.

are doing slightly better. A little bit further. A bit of height. Keep

:41:01.:41:10.

going. Right on the camera! Ten seconds left. Ten seconds. Come on.

:41:11.:41:19.

Over arm! Bounced off the edge! Try over arm! No! Stop! How do you think

:41:20.:41:31.

you did? Very disappointing. Let's go and look. Are you ready? Let's

:41:32.:41:36.

look inside. You announce into the world. How many? Zero! Not very

:41:37.:41:45.

impressive... Absolutely nothing. Do you know how many Andy Murray got

:41:46.:41:53.

in? 14! It was over arm. I did give you a little tip. Can I say overarm?

:41:54.:42:02.

I am saying it to everybody! Thank you so much for trying. That's

:42:03.:42:10.

really good. Trying that live on BBC One for the first time ever, very

:42:11.:42:15.

brave. I do want to say anything about it

:42:16.:42:19.

because we will be challenged to do it, you know that.

:42:20.:42:23.

I'm going for the Andy Murray technique, just overarm.

:42:24.:42:27.

Are you going to practise beforehand?

:42:28.:42:31.

I just going to go in there, feeling strong.

:42:32.:42:32.

You might have heard of Snapchat and you'll almost certainly have

:42:33.:42:35.

seen the selfies people take with those special effects filters.

:42:36.:42:37.

But how would you feel if people on the app could see exactly

:42:38.:42:52.

where your children were when they posted a picture?

:42:53.:42:54.

The app has introduced a new feature which allows users to track each

:42:55.:42:58.

Called SnapMaps, it's raising concerns among parents and child

:42:59.:43:04.

As you go out on the map, there's Sally in Wimbledon, and you can find

:43:05.:43:18.

other people on your Snapchat around the world. We have one of our

:43:19.:43:24.

correspondence in Bangkok. It's really specific. You can find not

:43:25.:43:28.

only what room of the house they are written, you can see whether they

:43:29.:43:30.

are awake or asleep. -- are in. It's a feature that had Loose Women

:43:31.:43:34.

presenter and parent, Nadia Sawalha, worried

:43:35.:43:37.

when she spoke to her daughter I have this friend that I speak to

:43:38.:43:47.

in Florida. She is my age and when I first got SnapMaps I was looking

:43:48.:43:51.

around to see what it was like and I could see she was sitting down in

:43:52.:43:55.

Florida, at high school. You can also see what school people are out.

:43:56.:44:01.

This is so dangerous. I think this is so dangerous and a step too far.

:44:02.:44:05.

I'm completely horrified by this. What do you think? Am I being an

:44:06.:44:09.

overprotective mother? What do you think? Are your kids using it? Digi

:44:10.:44:14.

no it existed, because I didn't ready four hours ago! -- did you

:44:15.:44:24.

know. Good morning. We've spoken of it about it, but what exactly is it

:44:25.:44:31.

letting people see and do? There are two things SnapMap does. Where there

:44:32.:44:37.

is a popular event at the concert, people can post publicly, so you

:44:38.:44:42.

choose to post publicly, and then something comes up to say that lots

:44:43.:44:46.

of people are posting from there and you can see the public videos and

:44:47.:44:49.

pictures that people have shared. The second thing that people are

:44:50.:44:53.

more concerned about is that you can share your location with people on

:44:54.:44:57.

your friends list. If you added me as a friend and I've added you, then

:44:58.:45:01.

we can choose to share our location and see exactly on the map where we

:45:02.:45:06.

are. Do you need to opt in, or is it automatic? Do you have to say that

:45:07.:45:12.

you want to share your location? You do have to opt in, but when they

:45:13.:45:16.

launched it they said there was a new feature and it pops up on your

:45:17.:45:21.

phone and you cut through and by that point you have opted in and you

:45:22.:45:25.

have to go back and take yourself off. So a lot of people are finding

:45:26.:45:27.

that accidentally opted in. You've got a son and you looked at

:45:28.:45:37.

his phone yesterday, was he opted into this? He was. Were you

:45:38.:45:41.

concerned? I didn't know anything about it, I had a conversation and

:45:42.:45:46.

found out about it and I thought, well, let's not get hysterical,

:45:47.:45:50.

let's have a look at it from both sides. I started to research it and

:45:51.:45:54.

was a little bit worried about the fact you can be pinpointed to any

:45:55.:46:00.

area, obviously there's predators, bullies in our communities, you want

:46:01.:46:06.

to make sure they're safe. For me I just bought its great for people who

:46:07.:46:13.

are aware of all of the safeguards on it and if you can put all those

:46:14.:46:20.

in place it could be quite good fun. But there's more vulnerable people

:46:21.:46:25.

in the community who could be... They may not know about the

:46:26.:46:30.

safeguarding aspects and who also maybe think it's a bit fun and we

:46:31.:46:36.

could be pulled into different areas where you wouldn't expect your

:46:37.:46:39.

children to go. From the point of view of your son, he can see where

:46:40.:46:44.

his schoolmates are? They have Snapchat for their class, they keep

:46:45.:46:48.

in contact and talk about homework, if they go for a trip for school,

:46:49.:46:53.

they talk about what they need and if they go out socially they could

:46:54.:46:58.

post pictures of what they're up to. Is the quite tech savvy? When he

:46:59.:47:04.

talked about safety concerns you knew about it? He was telling me. He

:47:05.:47:09.

was telling me about Snap Maps, someone told him about it, one of

:47:10.:47:13.

his friends at school, we went through the safety side of it and I

:47:14.:47:18.

was saying, look, this could happen and he was saying it's fine, if you

:47:19.:47:24.

do this, put ghost mode on, that's fine and nobody can see me. I kind

:47:25.:47:31.

of thought, if somebody hasn't got the settings on, the safety

:47:32.:47:38.

settings, can they see William? He was saying to me, no, they can't, I

:47:39.:47:45.

have to add people in and be able to... Allow them to see him? The

:47:46.:47:52.

thing is, friends and social media aren't necessarily all your friends,

:47:53.:47:58.

that's one of the concerns? That's right, we all have people on our

:47:59.:48:01.

friends list either on Facebook or Twitter that we don't know and

:48:02.:48:05.

Snapchat doesn't give you a discovery feature. I could add you

:48:06.:48:08.

as a public figure and followed Justin Bieber. The thing about the

:48:09.:48:13.

location sharing is you only see the location if you follow each other

:48:14.:48:17.

back, but if you've added people you haven't met in real life, which is

:48:18.:48:23.

possible... It's a shame to have X amount of people following you and

:48:24.:48:26.

following them back, that could be another issue? The other thing is

:48:27.:48:31.

why does it need to be so accurate? If they have posted in a house it

:48:32.:48:35.

tells you exactly where they live. Even the room? It uses GPS so it is

:48:36.:48:42.

very accurate, other apps let you share your location even on a

:48:43.:48:46.

specific case, on WhatsApp you can say I'm here and share your location

:48:47.:48:50.

with one person, and you can check into things like a concert, they are

:48:51.:48:54.

more of a vague location. Snapchat says it has to be super accurate so

:48:55.:49:01.

if you're at a festival together you can pinpoint where your friends are,

:49:02.:49:04.

that's why they've made it so accurate but it is in so make sure

:49:05.:49:08.

on your settings you're not opted in if you don't want to be. Later today

:49:09.:49:13.

we are going to load up a guide on our Facebook and Twitter BBC

:49:14.:49:16.

Breakfast accounts on how to load up ghost mode and how to opt in and

:49:17.:49:21.

out, you didn't go for hysterical mum, you went for a conversation?

:49:22.:49:26.

You have to look at it and from William's point of view, he is very

:49:27.:49:31.

savvy, he is aware of things that happen around him and the school

:49:32.:49:35.

have been very good, they have introduced people who have given

:49:36.:49:40.

them talks about online safety and we do as well. I think parents do

:49:41.:49:44.

have to have a look and see where the children are. It always seems

:49:45.:49:50.

like catch up, doesn't it? ! Thank you very much indeed.

:49:51.:49:51.

We are going to catch up with lovely Carol, court number two, good

:49:52.:49:55.

morning? Good morning. Good morning. First on court number two today is

:49:56.:50:07.

Heather Watson playing serviced over at 11:30am. Expect all these seats

:50:08.:50:16.

to be packed. -- Sevestova. The grand capacity is 39,000 people.

:50:17.:50:21.

That will vary depending on the number of games played and possibly

:50:22.:50:26.

due to the weather as well and during Wimbledon fortnight, 674

:50:27.:50:30.

matches actually take place so that's a whopping big number. If

:50:31.:50:33.

you're coming down today it's going to stay dry, it will be hot and

:50:34.:50:39.

humid, it's already 17 here, we expect the temperature to be in the

:50:40.:50:43.

high 20s or maybe even 30 with a light breezes to don't forget to

:50:44.:50:48.

slip, slapped and slop, good advice for most of the UK! -- slip, slapped

:50:49.:50:53.

and slop. For the next few days it will be warm and humid but for

:50:54.:50:57.

southern areas it will be hot. We start at 9am in the south, a lot of

:50:58.:51:02.

sunshine with the temperature romping up quickly now. Through the

:51:03.:51:07.

Midlands, northern England, a bit more cloud, a weak weather front

:51:08.:51:11.

decaying but still producing some outbreaks of Brazil, patchy light

:51:12.:51:14.

rain, especially in north-east England and some coastal and hill

:51:15.:51:23.

fog -- outbreaks of drizzle. Only five Celsius at the moment in

:51:24.:51:26.

Northern Scotland but a beautiful start in Northern Ireland with the

:51:27.:51:29.

temperature climbing. In north Wales, a bit more cloud at the

:51:30.:51:34.

moment but that will thin and break, south Wales and south-west England,

:51:35.:51:39.

sunshine. The outside chance of a thundery shower in south-west

:51:40.:51:41.

England this morning but that is all, as we drift from

:51:42.:51:47.

Gloucestershire to London, we are back in the sunshine and

:51:48.:51:50.

temperatures steadily climbing. Also fresher on the coast. As we go

:51:51.:51:55.

through the day, the weather front draped across northern England will

:51:56.:52:00.

tend to weaken, especially from the west and north-west England and

:52:01.:52:03.

south-west Scotland will brighten up to see sunshine. South-west Scotland

:52:04.:52:07.

and north-east England will hang on to more cloud pegging back

:52:08.:52:11.

temperatures. Here we're looking at 13 or 14. In Northern Ireland and

:52:12.:52:16.

Scotland, 18 or 19. For the rest of England and Wales, 24 to 30. 30 is

:52:17.:52:21.

more likely in the south-east. Through the evening and overnight,

:52:22.:52:25.

we start to import thunderstorms across the English Channel across

:52:26.:52:29.

southern counties. At the same time we have a weather front producing

:52:30.:52:33.

rain coming in across western Scotland and Northern Ireland. For

:52:34.:52:36.

some it will be another sticky night with overnight lows of between ten

:52:37.:52:41.

and 18. Tomorrow the rain in Northern Ireland and western

:52:42.:52:43.

Scotland rattles through quickly, late in the day another weather

:52:44.:52:47.

front comes in replacing the rain in the west but it's the thunderstorms

:52:48.:52:52.

across England continuing to migrate northwards, some of them will be

:52:53.:52:56.

hunting is and also they will have hail embedded in them but some will

:52:57.:53:01.

miss them all together and we will have another sunny, dry and sticky

:53:02.:53:06.

day, still the potential tomorrow in the south with highs of 30. As we

:53:07.:53:11.

head into Friday, a lot of dry weather around, the thunderstorm

:53:12.:53:15.

risk diminishes, a few showers in the north-east of England and by the

:53:16.:53:18.

end of the day another weather front bringing rain in Northern Ireland.

:53:19.:53:22.

Fresher for most except in the south where we hang on to high levels of

:53:23.:53:28.

humidity and the high temperatures. Really will be high temperatures!

:53:29.:53:31.

Some people will love it. Thanks very much, Carol!

:53:32.:53:34.

The weather looks amazing at the moment! It has just been wonderful.

:53:35.:53:41.

Every morning... Do you think there's going to be rain? Pharrell

:53:42.:53:46.

Williams Knost. At some stage the weather is going to turn -- Carol

:53:47.:53:50.

will no. It's ten years to the day

:53:51.:53:52.

since the cost of borrowing Since then the direction

:53:53.:53:55.

has been downwards Ben's been looking at the impact

:53:56.:53:58.

on borrowers, savers The Bank of England's Monetary

:53:59.:54:01.

Policy Committee meets every month In recent years rates

:54:02.:54:06.

peaked at just under 6%, with the last increase

:54:07.:54:14.

on this day in 2007. Sarah Coles is a personal

:54:15.:54:20.

finance expert with AOL. Ten years, they stayed at 0.5% for

:54:21.:54:30.

so long and then the cut after the Brexit vote to just 0.25 %,

:54:31.:54:36.

brilliant news for borrowers but terrible for savers? Yes, if you

:54:37.:54:40.

look at the rates in 2007 you could get 6% as a Best Buy rate and now

:54:41.:54:46.

you're looking at 1.25%, for those people trying to live off their

:54:47.:54:49.

savings, especially pensioners, it's been difficult. This has been a

:54:50.:54:56.

really dangerous and difficult time. It shows on one hand and some people

:54:57.:55:01.

will win and other people are going to lose, some would say it's the

:55:02.:55:05.

price some have had to pay to keep the economy on an even keel because

:55:06.:55:09.

the Bank of England cut rates to try to keep the economy ticking over, it

:55:10.:55:14.

was likened to putting the economy on a life-support machine by

:55:15.:55:18.

slashing rates so low, is that a fair assertion, some are going to

:55:19.:55:22.

lose but it's the price we pay for keeping the economy going? It's

:55:23.:55:26.

difficult because borrowing becomes more affordable, it's the era of

:55:27.:55:29.

cheap money and people have made ends meet better because mortgage

:55:30.:55:33.

payments have come down. Looking at typical rates, 2007 was 5.8% for a

:55:34.:55:40.

typical mortgage, now its 2.6% so a big saving for people. The problem

:55:41.:55:44.

comes when you're trying to drive an economy through borrowing, people

:55:45.:55:48.

then just load up more on debt. If you look at borrowing at the moment,

:55:49.:55:53.

there's ?1.3 trillion of mortgage debt compared to ?1.1 trillion in

:55:54.:55:58.

2007, consumer borrowing has gone up as well so we have loaded up on debt

:55:59.:56:02.

which gives us the problem when the Bank of England are looking at

:56:03.:56:05.

raising rates, there's 8 million people who have never experienced a

:56:06.:56:09.

rate rise in their adult life and then they will find borrowing more

:56:10.:56:13.

expensive. Can they deal with it? What about the psychology for people

:56:14.:56:18.

who have never seen a rate rise? We assume money will be cheap for a

:56:19.:56:21.

long time but there's very little incentive to save. This is why

:56:22.:56:25.

:56:30.:56:33.

England, and why they are talking about making the changes now, is so

:56:34.:56:37.

they can make changes slowly so people get used to small rises. One

:56:38.:56:41.

of the other changes they have been trying to do is make sure people who

:56:42.:56:45.

borrowed money now are making much more stringent tests to afford them,

:56:46.:56:50.

but psychologically it will seem strange to people, especially like

:56:51.:56:53.

it's not like they are left with more money in their pocket, they

have money squeezed elsewhere, more expensive in the supermarkets, gas

room. My daughter, she's not... She's losing her focus, because this

is not her place. And at another angry meeting

:01:10.:01:13.

with the police last night - residents say their questions

:01:14.:01:15.

still aren't being answered. Whatever it is, we want to know

:01:16.:01:23.

exactly what it is, do not hide anything.

:01:24.:01:34.

Good morning, it's Wednesday 5th July.

:01:35.:01:38.

Also this morning, victims of stalking and harassment

:01:39.:01:40.

are being put at risk, because of failings

:01:41.:01:43.

by police and prosecutors - a new report blames poor

:01:44.:01:45.

investigations and a lack of legal protection.

:01:46.:01:50.

An average debt of more than ?50,000 for university students in England -

:01:51.:01:53.

a new report says they'll be paying it off into their 50s.

:01:54.:02:03.

I will talk about that and also have news that it is ten years to the day

:02:04.:02:09.

since interest rates fell to their record lows, but why, and what does

:02:10.:02:12.

it mean to the economy? I'll have the details. Good morning from the

:02:13.:02:18.

Wimbledon queue, some of these lucky people might be able to see Andy

Murray play on centre court later on, after two of his main rivals

:02:23.:02:26.

suggested yesterday there should be a change in the rules, after both

their opponents retired through injury. And Mark Cavendish is out of

:02:30.:02:35.

the Tour de France. He broke his shoulder in a collision with a world

champion, Peter Sagan, who has been disqualified from the race. And I am

:02:40.:02:43.

inside Wimbledon this morning where the sun is beating down, the

:02:44.:02:46.

temperature is already 18 Celsius and it will get hotter, in fact the

:02:47.:02:50.

forecast for most of us today is a dry run with some sunshine, hot and

humid in the South. The exceptions across the north of England and

to rehouse them all by today. Officials say everyone has been made

an offer of temporary accommodation but lawyers for the families say

:03:20.:03:21.

many are unsuitable. There was also anger

:03:22.:03:23.

at a meeting with police and the Westminster Coroner last

:03:24.:03:26.

night, where residents demanded to know why

:03:27.:03:28.

there have been no arrests. This was the first opportunity

:03:29.:03:30.

for families to put their questions directly to police and

:03:31.:03:38.

the Westminster coroner. One reason this private meeting

exactly what it is, And the answers that

were coming back were, "We don't know, we don't know,

a spokeswoman for the Grenfell response team said the council would

continue to find homes for all residents. When you are dealing with

158 families, of which only 14 have accepted the current temporary

association, you have two factor in it goes at the pace of each

:05:27.:05:29.

individual family and that is the important point. That is why you

:05:30.:05:33.

can't put a timescale on it, because it is not about numbers and not

:05:34.:05:36.

about rushing people to meet targets. It is about understanding

:05:37.:05:40.

the devastating impact on these families, and that each family has

:05:41.:05:44.

to have wraparound support to make the right decisions and get to the

:05:45.:05:47.

right position in order to be to help them move forward.

:05:48.:05:51.

Victims of harassment and stalking in England and Wales are being left

:05:52.:05:55.

at risk because of failings by police and prosecutors.

:05:56.:05:58.

Two watchdogs found that crimes weren't being recorded,

:05:59.:06:00.

investigations were poorly conducted and legal protection wasn't

:06:01.:06:02.

They examined 112 cases in detail and concluded that none had

:06:03.:06:05.

Officers and prosecutors were identifying cases in isolation,

:06:06.:06:19.

whereas, by its very nature, both stalking and harassment occurs

:06:20.:06:21.

as a result of really pernicious and persistent offending

:06:22.:06:23.

and officers and prosecutors were missing that, which meant that

:06:24.:06:26.

The rationing of NHS treatments like hip, knee and cataract operations,

:06:27.:06:51.

as well as mental health services, has increased significantly in

:06:52.:06:51.

England over the past four years. Growing financial pressure

:06:52.:06:57.

and increased demand for services has led some areas to withdraw

:06:58.:06:59.

funding for some procedures, according

:07:00.:07:01.

to the British Medical Journal. It's leading to what

:07:02.:07:03.

some doctors describe Here's our health correspondent,

:07:04.:07:05.

Dominic Hughes. A growing and ageing population is

:07:06.:07:09.

placing increasing demands on the NHS, that in turn is ramping up the

pressure on finances, so, to save money in some areas, funding for

commentary mince is being withdrawn. Doctors say health leaders must be

:07:15.:07:17.

honest with patients about the tough choices they are having to make. The

:07:18.:07:24.

NHS is seriously struggling financially, and that is because of

:07:25.:07:27.

a decade of underinvestment by the government. The year after year we

:07:28.:07:31.

have seen a lack of investment, so local areas are having to make these

:07:32.:07:37.

really difficult decisions, and ultimately, in many areas, rationing

:07:38.:07:42.

services. Where funding has been withdrawn, GPs can make individual

:07:43.:07:47.

requests on a case-by-case basis. A BMJ analysis as overall these have

:07:48.:07:50.

increased by 47% in the past four years. There has also been a big

:07:51.:07:56.

rise in requests for hip and knee operations over the same time

:07:57.:07:59.

period, and the number of cataract operations for which Sun -- funding

:08:00.:08:04.

has been sought has also gone up. In England, decisions on what services

:08:05.:08:09.

the fund are made by local clinical commissioning groups, the national

:08:10.:08:11.

body that represents them says that given a limited budget, they are

:08:12.:08:16.

forced to make difficult choices to balance the needs of the individual

:08:17.:08:20.

against those of the wider population, but doctors and health

:08:21.:08:23.

campaigners say budget pressures are now creating a postcode lottery for

:08:24.:08:27.

treatments that were until recently commonly available.

Saudi Arabia is the biggest foreign promoter of Islamist

:08:31.:08:32.

extremism in the UK, according to a foreign

The Henry Jackson Society accuses Saudi individuals and foundations

of exporting 'an illiberal, bigoted ideology' and calls

The Saudi embassy in London has called the allegations

The average student debt for graduates in England is set

:08:51.:09:06.

The figure has emerged after research carried out

:09:07.:09:09.

by the Insititute for Fiscal Studies.

:09:10.:09:11.

it is a pretty terrible for not having to pay off loans and debts

:09:12.:09:16.

well into your 50s that these are the figures from the Institute for

:09:17.:09:19.

Fiscal Studies, suggesting that with such a debt burden, having graduated

:09:20.:09:25.

with a good job even, people will be paying well into their 50s. They are

:09:26.:09:29.

great that if you take out a loan about ?45,000 over three or four

:09:30.:09:33.

years of your university career, you will pay about ?51,000 back by the

:09:34.:09:36.

time you have added up all the interest. It also points out the

:09:37.:09:40.

interest rate charged on that loan is pretty sky-high, just over 6%,

:09:41.:09:43.

and if you compare that in what we pay on things like mortgages and

:09:44.:09:47.

normal loans on the open market, the Bank of England base rate of growth

:09:48.:09:51.

at a record low of a quarter of 1%, so they say there is a big

:09:52.:09:53.

difference, students are being hit with these extra charges. We should

:09:54.:09:58.

savour the universities it has meant more money, they have been able to

:09:59.:10:02.

invest more per student, they have been able to invest in universities

up and down the country. This applies to students in England. At a

:10:07.:10:12.

really worrying thought about how long students will be burdened with

:10:13.:10:15.

the step and if and when they are able to pay it back. They point out

:10:16.:10:20.

you can only start paying it back when you are earning over ?21,000 a

:10:21.:10:24.

year, that threshold has not changed, that has not moved in line

:10:25.:10:28.

with inflation, so as soon as you hit ?21,000 in earnings, you start

:10:29.:10:31.

paying it back, and as they point out, that means you could be paying

:10:32.:10:34.

it back well back into that your 50s. On that happy news... It is ten

:10:35.:10:38.

past eight this morning. Said self restraint was a choice

:10:39.:10:54.

that could change at any time. For the latest, let's speak to our Seoul

:10:55.:10:59.

correspondent, Steve Evans. Every time there was a missile test, there

:11:00.:11:03.

are raised tensions, what do you make of the latest events? Raised

:11:04.:11:10.

tension as you say, quite obviously a war of words, no obvious

:11:11.:11:15.

diplomatic way out, Kim Jong-un is saying the missile test, which was

:11:16.:11:21.

obviously successful, was a gift to America on American Independence

:11:22.:11:26.

Day. The military officers here are saying peace is a choice, and we

:11:27.:11:30.

could choose -- choose the other way. That is the gist of what they

:11:31.:11:33.

are saying. It is obviously a tense situation. I don't think it is the

:11:34.:11:38.

famed red line yet, where Donald Trump said back in January it won't

:11:39.:11:47.

happen. Ie Kill, a -- a missile capable of hitting the US. They have

:11:48.:11:56.

it -- a missile that can hit Alaska, we don't know if it is accurate but

:11:57.:12:00.

not, it won't hit Seattle or Los Angeles. We're not quite there yet.

:12:01.:12:05.

But every step of the way, and this is a big step, makes the world more

:12:06.:12:10.

dangerous, absolutely no doubt about that. Steve Evans, thank you, from

:12:11.:12:14.

Seoul. Bijan Ebrahimi was brutally murdered

:12:15.:12:17.

by his neighbour in 2013 - kicked to death and set alight

:12:18.:12:20.

on his estate in Bristol. In the years up to his death, he'd

:12:21.:12:25.

repeatedly called police to tell them that he was being racially

:12:26.:12:28.

abused by some of his neighbours Now an investigation into his death

:12:29.:12:31.

by the Independent Police Complaints Commission

:12:32.:12:35.

has found that the Avon and Someset Constabulary

:12:36.:12:37.

systematically failed We'll speak to IPCC

:12:38.:12:38.

Commissioner Jan Williams in a minute, after this report

:12:39.:12:43.

from our correspondent Jon Kay. He told police dozens of times

:12:44.:12:45.

that his life was in danger. What part of 'be quiet'

:12:46.:12:56.

do you not understand? Now a report says that over several

:12:57.:13:00.

years, the Iranian refugee was repeatedly failed by Avon

:13:01.:13:05.

and Somerset police, treated In 2013, he was beaten to death

:13:06.:13:07.

by a neighbour outside his flat The Independent Police

:13:08.:13:14.

Complaints Commission says there were systematic failures

:13:15.:13:20.

in the way he was dealt with. Today's report runs to hundreds

:13:21.:13:23.

of pages and it says this whole case has laid bare what it calls

:13:24.:13:26.

the disrespect, the prejudice and even contempt with which some

:13:27.:13:28.

officers and staff treated Bijan Ebrahimi in the days before

:13:29.:13:31.

he was murdered here. Reading that report and just coming

:13:32.:13:40.

to terms with what happened He always thought that he is in

:13:41.:13:43.

a country that police And he couldn't see

:13:44.:13:51.

anything beyond that. Last year, PC Kevin Duffy

:13:52.:13:58.

and community support officer Andrew Passmore were jailed,

:13:59.:14:02.

after being convicted PC's Leanne Winter and Helen Harris

:14:03.:14:04.

ere cleared by the jury, but were later sacked

:14:05.:14:14.

by a misconduct hearing. We accept that we failed

:14:15.:14:16.

Bijan Ebrahimi at his time of greatest need and throughout that

:14:17.:14:18.

time, he was respectful and he had confidence

:14:19.:14:20.

and trust in us, the police. And we let him down

:14:21.:14:23.

and for that, we are sorry. Avon and Somerset Police say

:14:24.:14:30.

they have improved the way that they deal with vulnerable

:14:31.:14:32.

people as a result of this case. Bijan's sisters are still waiting

:14:33.:14:35.

for the local council's report. Let's speak to the IPCC's

:14:36.:14:38.

Commissioner, Jan Williams, now. Morning to you, Jan. Listening to

:14:39.:14:51.

John's report, this is so many serious police failings, aren't

:14:52.:14:55.

there? Yes, the magnitude of this failure is very, very clear, and the

:14:56.:15:03.

evidence in our report shows that systematic, consistently, over at

:15:04.:15:07.

least a seven year period, even and Somerset police let vision in pretty

:15:08.:15:14.

media down. They never identified him as a vulnerable man who was a

:15:15.:15:18.

victim of abuse and who really needed their protection and their

:15:19.:15:29.

support. -- Bijan Ebrahimi. When you look at those calls, 40 of the calls

:15:30.:15:35.

were not actually recorded as crimes by the police. It is systematic

:15:36.:15:42.

failure over a number of years. It is a systematic failure, and it is

:15:43.:15:46.

extremely hard to understand, because the nature of those calls

:15:47.:15:50.

were such that Bijan Ebrahimi was self identifying himself as a victim

:15:51.:15:56.

of race hate crime. He was reporting criminal damage. He was reporting

:15:57.:16:02.

his fears of threats to his life. What he found instead was that he

:16:03.:16:07.

was labelled as the perpetrator, who was labelled as a liar, a time

:16:08.:16:12.

waster, and attention sicker, and his neighbour's counter allegations

:16:13.:16:17.

were always accepted at face value, even if there was absolutely no

:16:18.:16:19.

evidence underpinning them. So there is no doubt that those officers and

:16:20.:16:25.

staff who interacted with Mr Ebrahimi discriminated against him

:16:26.:16:31.

consistently, to his detriment, and without rational explanation.

:16:32.:16:38.

Is that what you mean when you say them are hallmarks of racial bias?

:16:39.:16:44.

There were remarks that could be construed as that. Quite clear he

:16:45.:16:50.

was discriminated against. The judge in the criminal proceedings and the

:16:51.:16:54.

misconduct panel did not find evidence officers were

:16:55.:16:58.

discriminating against him because of racial bias. The family believes

:16:59.:17:06.

he was a victim of race hate crime. There is evidence to suggest it is

:17:07.:17:10.

open to interpretation. The motives behind the officers' behaviour is

:17:11.:17:18.

not clear that respect. What is overwhelmingly clear is that they

:17:19.:17:23.

failed time and time again to identify him as a victim,

:17:24.:17:29.

anti-recognise his vulnerability, and to give him protection and

:17:30.:17:34.

support. He never had the protection and support no matter how many times

:17:35.:17:41.

he asked for it. The important question is what recommendations

:17:42.:17:45.

have you made, and what lessons have to B and hopefully will be learned?

:17:46.:17:50.

I have made a number of recommendations to Avon and Somerset

:17:51.:17:55.

which have wider applications. Important that the leadership of

:17:56.:18:00.

Avon and Somerset Police and police forces widely make it clear to

:18:01.:18:03.

officers and staff that discrimination of any kind, bias of

:18:04.:18:09.

any kind, conscious or unconscious has absolutely no place in modern

:18:10.:18:10.

policing. You're watching

substance. 8 billion cans have been sold as a delicacy in some parts of

your lovely Spam recipes this morning. My favourite one was

:35:22.:35:27.

Bolognese with Spam. Someone said the perfect way to deal with Spam is

to put it in cubes, feed it to the dog and then throw it in the bin.

covering on today's show. Good morning. Today we'll talk to a

woman who says her life was stolen because she was stalked over a

:36:13.:36:16.

five-year period by her neighbour. She called the police 125 times. In

:36:17.:36:22.

the end her neighbour attacked her. He's since been convicted of

:36:23.:36:25.

attempted murder. But on the day a new report says victims of stalking

:36:26.:36:30.

are being failed by the police. Join us after Breakfast.

Coming up here on Breakfast this morning.

:36:40.:36:43.

We'll be finding out how it feels to be pregnant in one

:36:44.:36:46.

of the remotest parts of the UK - where the nearest hospital

Breakfast's had a glimpse into the life of one of Britain's

:36:50.:36:53.

most celebrated poets, as a new collection of his personal

:36:54.:36:55.

belongings reveals a surprising side to Philip Larkin.

:36:56.:36:57.

The comedian David Sedaris will be here to tell us how he went

:36:58.:37:00.

from working as a Christmas elf in Macy's department

:37:01.:37:02.

store to being described as the "the American Alan Bennett".

:37:03.:37:09.

Quite interestingly, he's been publishing his diaries. Shall we go

:37:10.:37:21.

back to Wimbledon? Sally is there and she's got all the sport. I know

:37:22.:37:26.

you've been mentioning this today, there's been quite a few complaints

:37:27.:37:30.

from those who have been to Wimbledon saying people are turning

:37:31.:37:34.

up just to get their money, they are retiring after a set, going home,

:37:35.:37:39.

collecting their ?35,000, even though they are injured and probably

:37:40.:37:43.

shouldn't be there in the first place. It's a really good point,

:37:44.:37:48.

it's all over the papers today. Everyone's been talking about it.

:37:49.:37:53.

You would imagine, if you had tickets and found out you were lucky

:37:54.:37:57.

enough to have tickets for Wimbledon on Centre Court on date two, you'd

:37:58.:38:03.

be really excited. You're going to see Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer.

:38:04.:38:07.

Actually for people yesterday on Centre Court there were two injury

:38:08.:38:10.

retirements which means they didn't see as much tennis as they were

:38:11.:38:14.

expecting. Those players who go into those matches, are they going in

:38:15.:38:19.

with an injury knowing they might need help? I don't know. As you say,

:38:20.:38:25.

here at Wimbledon if you make it into your first round match you get

:38:26.:38:31.

?35,000. What's the alternative? To do the honourable thing and suggest

:38:32.:38:35.

you're not fit enough and not play, or at least have a go? It's been a

:38:36.:38:40.

talking point this morning, that's for sure. Andy Murray taking on

:38:41.:38:48.

Dustin Brown today. They said it could be time to change the rules

:38:49.:38:55.

after yesterday. Klizan played for 40 minutes before his calf injury

:38:56.:39:03.

was too much. Roger Federer's match wasn't much longer. They joked in

:39:04.:39:07.

the locker room maybe they should play a practice session together

:39:08.:39:09.

because they had so little time on the grass.

:39:10.:39:13.

There was more controversy after Australian Bernard Tomic said

:39:14.:39:15.

he was "bored" during his straight-sets defeat

:39:16.:39:17.

He also admitted to using a medical time-out to try to slow down

:39:18.:39:21.

the match, which could earn him a fine.

:39:22.:39:25.

After going out in the first round for four years in a row,

:39:26.:39:28.

Kyle Edmund finally made it through to round two when he beat

:39:29.:39:31.

Alex Ward is standing next to me right now!

:39:32.:39:40.

And women's world number one Angelique Kerber is through,

:39:41.:39:42.

after beating American qualifier Irina Falconi.

:39:43.:39:43.

Kerber was runner up last year to Serena Williams.

:39:44.:39:48.

She walked out here onto Centre Court and those memories came back

:39:49.:39:52.

to her. I'm not surprised. Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de

:39:53.:39:56.

France after a crash at the end World champion Peter Sag-ANN

:39:57.:39:59.

was disqualified for elbowing Cavendish, although his team have

:40:00.:40:02.

appealed against the decision. Cavendish broke his shoulder

:40:03.:40:04.

and needed stitches in his hand. Rangers have suffered one of

:40:05.:40:09.

the worst defeats in their history. Leading 1-0 from the first leg

:40:10.:40:16.

at Ibrox, they were knocked out of the Europa League by a part-time

:40:17.:40:18.

team from Luxembourg Progres Niederkorn,

:40:19.:40:21.

losing 2-0 on the night, There are reports that

:40:22.:40:22.

Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney will return

:40:23.:40:25.

to his first club Everton this week. He's apparently been left out

:40:26.:40:28.

of United's preseason tour Wouldn't that be a thing? I remember

:40:29.:40:47.

interviewing him as a 16-year-old at Everton. Wouldn't be incredible, it

:40:48.:40:54.

would be like going home for him. I mentioned Alex Ward. Good morning.

:40:55.:40:58.

We mentioned your match yesterday. You were beaten by Kyle Edmund. But

:40:59.:41:04.

actually took the first set off him, you appeared at Wimbledon, and your

:41:05.:41:10.

mum was here to watch. It was her 60th birthday and we had a little

:41:11.:41:13.

invention or moment with her talking about how proud she was. The match

:41:14.:41:20.

yesterday was tough. I started off really well, got a break early and

:41:21.:41:24.

won the first set but he ran away a bit and I ran out of steam a bit. It

:41:25.:41:29.

was great playing on my mums 60th and a nice little hug after, gave

:41:30.:41:34.

her a present, she was happy. That's good because a little bird told me

:41:35.:41:37.

you don't ring her often enough, you need to call her more! OK, I'll try

:41:38.:41:44.

and improve that now! Life on the road for you is busy, isn't it, and

:41:45.:41:51.

it's tough? It is. We travel 30-35 weeks a year, all around the world.

:41:52.:41:57.

There's some tough places out there, it's a bit of a dogfight. For many

:41:58.:42:01.

people watching from the outside, they probably think you have this

:42:02.:42:06.

incredibly glamorous, fabulous tennis players life. What's the

:42:07.:42:10.

reality? I love playing professionally, it's a dream job but

:42:11.:42:14.

it can be tough. A lot of the time I'm travelling around, I haven't got

:42:15.:42:18.

a sponsor so I'm putting all of my prize money back into hotels and

:42:19.:42:24.

accommodation. It's a tough gig. In some places I heard that when you

:42:25.:42:27.

turn up at events, you have to put your stick on your car in the car

:42:28.:42:32.

park, pay your parking, it's not like turning up as a footballer at a

:42:33.:42:36.

stadium. If I haven't managed to learn to drive yet so I haven't got

:42:37.:42:40.

a car! I been putting all my money straight back into my tennis! I

:42:41.:42:46.

might be paying for the train. Thank you so much for coming to talk to

:42:47.:42:52.

us. Go and give your mum a nice lunch and! I'll go and ring her now!

:42:53.:42:58.

You need to call home more! Big match on Centre Court today. Andy

:42:59.:43:03.

Murray playing Dustin Brown. Let's talk to Jamie Baker. You are a

:43:04.:43:08.

proper, good old-fashioned school had friend of Andy Murray. How long

:43:09.:43:14.

have you known him? Since I was six or seven, since the first time he

:43:15.:43:18.

beat me 6-0 in an under ten event. He was a year younger and he still

:43:19.:43:26.

beat me 6-0! He was good very early. You've not had a terrible career

:43:27.:43:32.

yourself. I've done my best. Tennis is an amazing sport to do for a job.

:43:33.:43:36.

It was a real privilege to do something that started as a hobby

:43:37.:43:40.

and ends up being a profession. Still involved in the game here,

:43:41.:43:44.

talking about tennis over two weeks, better than sitting in an office!

:43:45.:43:49.

You're working for the BBC and coverage is all over BBC radio

:43:50.:43:52.

television and online. Let's talk about handy's match. Dustin Brown,

:43:53.:43:59.

we would expect Andy Murray to beat him but he is not easy to beat, is

:44:00.:44:04.

he? He is not easy. He's not your average tour player. Sometimes in

:44:05.:44:09.

modern-day tennis but could be a one-dimensional player. Dustin Brown

:44:10.:44:13.

is the opposite. He has great memories playing here, he beat

:44:14.:44:18.

Leyton Hewitt and Rafael Nadal. He will love the big occasion. There's

:44:19.:44:22.

a massive gap in rankings but Dustin Brown isn't going to be consistent

:44:23.:44:25.

every single week. Come second round of Wimbledon he's going to think, if

:44:26.:44:30.

I have a chance of troubling the big players it's going to be early in

:44:31.:44:33.

the tournament so what better time than now? Do you have any inside

:44:34.:44:40.

info about and the's hip? It is unusual for him not to be on a

:44:41.:44:44.

practice court for two or three days in a week building up to a grand

:44:45.:44:47.

slam. There was clearly something there. The draw he has, today will

:44:48.:44:52.

be a bit of the test. He has the opportunity to play his way into the

:44:53.:44:56.

event which is what he likes. Obviously there is a day of rest in

:44:57.:45:00.

between at as well as well as the middle Sunday. After the first week

:45:01.:45:04.

the issue will have had a chance to heal. So actually the draw could be

:45:05.:45:12.

in his favour? I think so. He's come up against and I though Carla vich

:45:13.:45:19.

-- he's not come up against an Ivo Karlovic touch. He's definitely

:45:20.:45:23.

playing against players he likes to play against. One of the things I

:45:24.:45:27.

heard him say either before or after the first round match the other day

:45:28.:45:31.

was, just walking this court sharpens his mind. All the memories

:45:32.:45:34.

come flooding back. This place gives him a left.

:45:35.:45:41.

Thank you both very much. Imagine being beaten by Andy Murray. What it

:45:42.:45:52.

straight sets? It was only set in the under tens. Beaten by Andy

:45:53.:45:57.

Murray in the under tens in Dunblane. Not many can say they have

:45:58.:45:59.

done that. If you're pregnant in a rural

:46:00.:46:06.

community, you might live hundreds of miles away

:46:07.:46:08.

from the nearest hospital. A new documentary follows a group

:46:09.:46:12.

of expectant mums living in the Scottish Highlands

:46:13.:46:15.

and the midwives who help them prepare for birth in one

:46:16.:46:17.

of those mums and the midwife who looked after her,

:46:21.:46:25.

but first let's take You are with the magnificent Arthur,

:46:26.:46:27.

King Arthur! On the edge of the Atlantic Ocean,

:46:28.:46:37.

the midwives of Campbeltown provide their expertise to mums

:46:38.:46:41.

to be in villages and towns over this beautiful,

:46:42.:46:44.

but challenging terrain. Working here really

:46:45.:46:55.

appeals to midwife Becky. Basically, if you looked up the term

:46:56.:47:00.

"midwife" in the dictionary, You're just with the women

:47:01.:47:09.

in the whole time. You become almost like part

:47:10.:47:12.

of their family as well. Bridie Grant and baby Arthur join us

:47:13.:47:18.

now, along with midwife Becky Brown. And midwife Becky Brown is here as

:47:19.:47:33.

well. Tell us about Arthur's arrival? It was an epic journey. It

:47:34.:47:41.

was. We had always intended to be able to have a local birth, but

:47:42.:47:46.

circumstances changed a bit. So we ended up going up the road to the

:47:47.:47:52.

hospital. But when you set up the road, it was hours up the road. Yes,

:47:53.:47:57.

the hospital was a four and a half hour journey by car. That was

:47:58.:48:04.

definitely intense. So you're already having contractions in the

:48:05.:48:12.

car and your husband is driving. It is easy to panic in that situation.

:48:13.:48:22.

Yes, I get quite calm my huff -- my husband was panicking. He thought I

:48:23.:48:34.

was going to give birth in the car. No., you live in a beautiful place,

:48:35.:48:39.

but it is remote. You are a midwife there. What are your main issues?

:48:40.:48:45.

Really, it is thinking ahead. We are constantly risk assessing our women

:48:46.:48:48.

from the moment we meet them. We know things can change at any point.

:48:49.:48:53.

So we are always faced with the weather. We constantly look at

:48:54.:49:02.

whether in case we need an air ambulance. Always on watch. He was

:49:03.:49:11.

so quiet when you first came an, and now he knows he is on telly. Arthur,

:49:12.:49:22.

you go for it. Without the access to doctors, the bond between mother and

:49:23.:49:26.

midwife must be strong. Absolutely. For us in the beginning, coming from

:49:27.:49:31.

the States, I was nervous about delivering some remotely. But

:49:32.:49:35.

throughout the whole pregnancy, because everything was going so well

:49:36.:49:39.

and I was getting so much support from the midwives, it felt like it

:49:40.:49:44.

was the right decision. You talked about possibly calling an air

:49:45.:49:52.

ambulance. Yes. If we need to get women up to Paisley quickly, it is

:49:53.:49:55.

the air ambulance we would choose because it is door-to-door, 20

:49:56.:50:00.

minutes. We sometimes have to wait an hour for the flight to come in,

:50:01.:50:06.

whereas if it is road ambulance, it can be three and a half hours,

:50:07.:50:13.

depending on traffic and other things. It is not the best of roads

:50:14.:50:17.

and an ambulance is not the most pleasant of journeys. So you would

:50:18.:50:26.

go with them? Sometimes we do. Again, risk assessment is the

:50:27.:50:31.

keyword. If a woman can go alone, we will send them. There are only a few

:50:32.:50:37.

of us in the town, so if a midwife goes out of the area, we could be

:50:38.:50:42.

short. Oh, Arthur! How do you feel about it? I suppose as well as that

:50:43.:50:56.

tight bond, there must be midwives who have been involved in families

:50:57.:51:02.

for generations. That's right. One of our midwives, Elspeth, recently

:51:03.:51:07.

retired. She was involved in the delivery of a baby as well as the

:51:08.:51:16.

delivery of the baby's dad. You don't get that in many places. It

:51:17.:51:23.

can feel isolating at times. You wish your mum or your sister was

:51:24.:51:27.

there to help out. But for such a small area, there is a lot going on.

:51:28.:51:32.

There are a lot of mums' groups and things to do, and there is always a

:51:33.:51:39.

nice walk on the beach. I take it the full Scotland kit that Arthur is

:51:40.:51:44.

in today... He is in his away jersey. Do you have an American one?

:51:45.:51:50.

He was in his American flag outfit for Independence Day yesterday. So

:51:51.:51:54.

the midwives are in charge. Is there a doctor as well? We have

:51:55.:52:01.

consultants at the end of a phone. We can phone 24 hours a day and get

:52:02.:52:06.

advice from the consultant unit in Paisley or the Queen Elizabeth in

:52:07.:52:11.

Glasgow. The journey sounds challenging, but I understand that

:52:12.:52:16.

on much part of it, there is no mobile phone signal. So when you are

:52:17.:52:20.

on that journey, you are under pressure. Yeah, I didn't realise

:52:21.:52:25.

that the time, but my husband thought we had made the wrong

:52:26.:52:29.

decision when there was no reception for about an hour of the journey. He

:52:30.:52:33.

just thought, gosh, where do we go from here? I am with you might

:52:34.:52:40.

Arthur, who needs socks?! But it was all right in the end. No need for

:52:41.:52:45.

your husband to panic. Arthur, one of your shoes is over here. I was

:52:46.:52:53.

not trying to steal it. You have spread yourself far and wide this

:52:54.:52:54.

morning. The Highland Midwife

:52:55.:52:56.

is on Channel 5 tonight at 8pm. Let's go back to Wimbledon, with

:52:57.:53:13.

Carol and Rufus the hawk. Yes, what a treat. And Imogen Davis.

:53:14.:53:20.

Delightful to see you, as it is to see Rufus. You're such a good boy.

:53:21.:53:28.

Rufus is ten years old. Yes, he has got used to it now. So he is a bit

:53:29.:53:34.

of an institution. What kind of routine does he have? We start here

:53:35.:53:37.

at five o'clock every morning during the championship, nice and early

:53:38.:53:41.

like yourselves. He patrolled the skies to check that there are none

:53:42.:53:45.

who will be chanting it to cause any disruption during the play. The

:53:46.:53:49.

pigeons like to eat the grass seed, so Rufus is here to protect. Can I

:53:50.:54:02.

hold him? Absolutely. You are a pro. Hold your arm out like a tree

:54:03.:54:09.

branch. Perfect. I have been called many things, but not a tree branch.

:54:10.:54:14.

Isn't he handsome? What kind of diet does he have? He is like an athlete.

:54:15.:54:19.

He exercises daily and eats chicken and quail and anything high-protein,

:54:20.:54:23.

sometimes some rabbit and the odd pigeon now and then. We see him

:54:24.:54:27.

every morning, buddy you stay for much of the day? We do try and see

:54:28.:54:32.

some of the tennis. Rufus gets a great spot up there, but we

:54:33.:54:36.

generally keep him out of the way by the time the public come in, because

:54:37.:54:39.

it gets busy and it is hard for him to pick me out in a crowd. And is he

:54:40.:54:46.

working alone? He has a couple of apprentices, but he is the chief

:54:47.:54:50.

pigeons carer. So how do you go about training a Harris Hawk? It is

:54:51.:54:55.

an intensive training process and can be nerve-racking when you are

:54:56.:54:58.

building up a relationship with them and feeding them bits of food daily.

:54:59.:55:05.

Then when you are ready to try them and you feel like you trust each

:55:06.:55:09.

other, you let them fly free. Ultimately, they could go off and

:55:10.:55:12.

survive on their own, but when you have put all that hard work in, you

:55:13.:55:16.

don't want them to disappear. He must be like a family member.

:55:17.:55:20.

Talking of flying free, I need to let you go. We will see you later.

:55:21.:55:33.

It's been a pleasure. Off you go! What a gorgeous hawk. The weather in

:55:34.:55:38.

Wimbledon is beautiful is, 20 Celsius at the moment and a lot of

:55:39.:55:41.

sunshine and temperatures are set to rise.

:55:42.:55:45.

The forecast for Wimbledon is dry. If you are outdoors today, it is

:55:46.:55:55.

worth slipping, slapping and slopping on your T-shirt, hat and

:55:56.:55:58.

sun cream. The next few days, it is going to be warm and humid across

:55:59.:56:02.

the board. Hot if you are further south. In the south of England this

:56:03.:56:08.

morning, there is a lot of sunshine around. Temperatures are rising very

:56:09.:56:14.

quickly in the sunshine. Further north, the cloud is building. Here

:56:15.:56:18.

we have a weak weather front, which is producing patchy rain across

:56:19.:56:23.

parts of north-east England. That cloud also extends into southern

:56:24.:56:28.

Scotland. The northern Scotland, sunshine first thing. It is chilly.

:56:29.:56:32.

Northern Ireland is off to a sunny start and you will hang onto that

:56:33.:56:36.

sunshine to most of the day. North Wales is seeing more cloud.

:56:37.:56:42.

South-west England is in the sunshine. There is the outside

:56:43.:56:46.

chance of a shower, no more than that. It could be thundery, though.

:56:47.:56:52.

As we drift from Gloucestershire towards the Home Counties, it is dry

:56:53.:56:58.

and sunny and the temperatures continue to rise. The cloud will

:56:59.:57:09.

break up through the day. But where it hangs on across north-east

:57:10.:57:14.

England, temperatures will be held back. Temperatures in Northern

:57:15.:57:21.

Ireland and Scotland are around 18 to 20 today. For England and Wales,

:57:22.:57:26.

we are looking at the mid to high 20s and up to 30 in the south-east.

:57:27.:57:32.

Overnight, we are looking at all those thunderstorms coming across

:57:33.:57:35.

the English Channel into southern counties. We also have a new weather

:57:36.:57:41.

front across western Scotland and Northern Ireland, introducing some

:57:42.:57:46.

rain. It is going to be muggy in the South. Fresher elsewhere. Tomorrow,

:57:47.:57:50.

the rain across Northern Ireland and Scotland rattle through quickly.

:57:51.:57:53.

Then another weather front comes into the West later. Some of the

:57:54.:58:02.

showers will be torrential, but some of us will miss them all together

:58:03.:58:06.

and we will have a dry colour sunny and humid day. As we head into

:58:07.:58:13.

Friday, the potential for thunderstorms diminishes. Most of us

:58:14.:58:17.

will have a dry day. If you showers across the north-east of England. By

:58:18.:58:22.

the end of the day, another one and weather front comes across Northern

:58:23.:58:24.

Ireland. Feeling more comfortable except for the South, where it will

:58:25.:58:28.

still be quite warm and humid. How cool was Rufus? I am a bit

:58:29.:58:41.

frightened of Rufus. You were so brave. He is as timid as a wee

:58:42.:58:46.

mouse. Steinegger remember that time he had to land on my hand? I was not

:58:47.:58:51.

brave. You did brilliantly. He obviously loves you. Anyone who was

:58:52.:58:56.

watching yesterday will have seen Carol and I have a game at game,

:58:57.:59:03.

set, mugger. You were rubbish. I was terrible. We have been getting

:59:04.:59:06.

tennis players to have a go at seeing how many balls they can get

:59:07.:59:11.

into our British mug in 30 seconds. Andy Murray and Jo Konta have tried.

:59:12.:59:15.

We thought we would ask Milos Raonic. He is going to be good,

:59:16.:59:16.

right? Thanks for taking part in our Game,

:59:17.:59:19.

Set, Mug Challenge. You have 30 seconds to get as many

:59:20.:59:24.

balls in as possible. And some, you know, I probably feel

:59:25.:59:27.

more comfortable in also. I've got the timer here ready,

:59:28.:59:38.

get a ball in your hand, OK, Milos is going for the quick

:59:39.:59:42.

succession approach. Extreme concentration

:59:43.:59:48.

on the face there. You must have hit at

:59:49.:59:49.

least 20 balls already. He's smiling, he's

:59:50.:00:02.

getting relaxed now. Put some more in at the end,

:00:03.:00:05.

I've not been able to count any. The mug is actually quite deep,

:00:06.:00:14.

you may be able to reach it Would you like to count

:00:15.:00:23.

them out for me? It's not a big challenge

:00:24.:00:27.

to count this high. There were so many you really

:00:28.:00:29.

couldn't see, like, in the really Are you feeling like you acquitted

:00:30.:00:36.

yourself well, are you happy I feel like if I knew about it

:00:37.:00:40.

I would have prepared better. A good point, thank

:00:41.:00:45.

you so much for taking part. Milos Raonic managed four. Let's

:00:46.:01:03.

have a look at the leaderboard. Who did the best job? Andy Murray. Of

:01:04.:01:09.

course he did. He only got 14 in 30 seconds. That's really good!

:01:10.:01:14.

LAUGHTER You've been paying attention! Milos Raonic in second

:01:15.:01:20.

place at the moment with four. Really good sports, really brave of

:01:21.:01:24.

them to have a go because they don't practice, they just do it. When you

:01:25.:01:30.

look at your two that's not bad! Banks! Maybe you'll do it tomorrow!

:01:31.:01:37.

STUDIO: Some things are best to pass on, aren't they Carol! LAUGHTER

:01:38.:01:45.

Carol would smash it! He coming back so we can have a go? That's a good

:01:46.:01:48.

point. You can watch live coverage

:01:49.:01:51.

of Wimbledon from 11.30 on BBC One and hear commentary from 12.30

:01:52.:01:54.

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

:01:55.:01:57.

from 15 courts on connected TV, Would you like to explain what a

:01:58.:02:11.

connected TV is? It's a TV that's connected to the internet either by

:02:12.:02:16.

an ethernet cable or wi-fi. Most TVs are connected these days. Can I just

:02:17.:02:28.

say, it smells of Spam in here! I am a convert to Spam! There are 13

:02:29.:02:38.

flavours of Spam by the way! Happy birthday Spam. For ten years

:02:39.:02:41.

interest rates haven't gone up. It's ten years to the day

:02:42.:02:45.

since interest rates last went up. Not great news for savers. They've

:02:46.:02:55.

seen rubbish returns on their savings in the bank but it's given

:02:56.:02:57.

the economy a bit of a kick-start. The cost of borrowing

:02:58.:03:06.

affects us all. It determines what we pay

:03:07.:03:08.

for our mortgage, how credit It also sets the way that we get

:03:09.:03:10.

interest on any savings. Take a look at the last ten years

:03:11.:03:14.

and one thing is pretty clear, rates have been going in one

:03:15.:03:17.

direction and that's down, and it all began at the height

:03:18.:03:20.

of the financial crisis. The UK economy was put on emergency

:03:21.:03:28.

life support to keep it ticking over while the world's financial

:03:29.:03:31.

system was in turmoil. Between 2008 and 2009,

:03:32.:03:34.

rates were slashed from nearly 6% to just 0.5%, and they've been

:03:35.:03:36.

at those record lows Just when people thought rates might

:03:37.:03:40.

start going up again, the Brexit vote created even more

:03:41.:03:47.

economic uncertainty, and so rates were

:03:48.:03:49.

slashed again in August Low interest rates mean it's cheaper

:03:50.:03:51.

for businesses to borrow money to invest or expand,

:03:52.:04:04.

and it also means cheaper mortgages, loans and credit

:04:05.:04:07.

cards for all of us. Well, it's bad news for savers,

:04:08.:04:11.

they've lost from record low returns and low interest rates tend

:04:12.:04:18.

to push up inflation, so that means higher

:04:19.:04:20.

prices for everyone. So some win, some lose. That's

:04:21.:04:36.

always the issue. Favours have really struggled. Now there's talk

:04:37.:04:39.

that perhaps rates could start going up. In America they've started

:04:40.:04:43.

rising. Until the economy gets back on an even keel, many think it's too

:04:44.:04:50.

soon to start raising the rate. Inflation is rising which means shop

:04:51.:04:56.

are going up too. The Bank of England has got to work out when is

:04:57.:05:00.

the time to raise rates, when is the time to bring the economy off life

:05:01.:05:04.

support. Give be too soon and it could hit economic growth, too late

:05:05.:05:10.

and inflation could be soaring. Thank you and sorry about the smell

:05:11.:05:15.

of Spam! I've got it in the mouth for the day I think!

:05:16.:05:23.

In a few minutes will be speaking to the man who published his diaries.

:05:24.:05:32.

First day last brief look at Welcome back. For many of us diary

:05:33.:07:25.

is a precious memory and secret thoughts. The idea of anyone else

:07:26.:07:30.

reading those scribbles is the stuff of nightmare! That is what the

:07:31.:07:36.

author and humourist David said RSS is letting us do. He's kept a diary

:07:37.:07:41.

for over 40 years and has published it for the first time -- David

:07:42.:07:44.

Sedaris. The thought of somebody taking your

:07:45.:07:52.

diary and publishing it, it's excruciating but this is what you've

:07:53.:07:56.

chosen to do. This is selections from my diary that I chose. If

:07:57.:08:01.

someone actually found my diary and read it I would die on the spot.

:08:02.:08:07.

Would you? I wasn't afraid to keep things that made me look bad. I

:08:08.:08:12.

don't write about my feelings, so it wasn't that embarrassing. I tend to

:08:13.:08:16.

write about things I see or overhear. So there wasn't that much

:08:17.:08:21.

to be ashamed of. You kept it for so many years. You must have gone back

:08:22.:08:26.

and read what he had written decades ago. Did any of that surprise you,

:08:27.:08:31.

have you changed your mind about things? There were things I told

:08:32.:08:35.

myself for years were somebody else's faults. Then I would read the

:08:36.:08:38.

diaries and think, that was completely might fault. Then I was

:08:39.:08:45.

distressed. I haven't changed any. I thought I had but I haven't really.

:08:46.:08:51.

My news resolution is the same every year, it doesn't change. That's how

:08:52.:08:54.

you know you haven't changed that much. Do you still write every

:08:55.:08:59.

single day in your diary? Yes, I get up every morning and write my diary.

:09:00.:09:07.

How long does it take? Like an hour, maybe. It doesn't matter if anything

:09:08.:09:11.

happened or not. If nothing happened just make something out of nothing.

:09:12.:09:18.

What was today's entry? I keep a notebook with me and all day things

:09:19.:09:24.

happen and I write them down. You know Park or -- parkour? I saw that

:09:25.:09:35.

for the first time. I saw these young people jumping. I completely

:09:36.:09:42.

support it, I think it's fantastic. It's fantastic to watch, isn't it?

:09:43.:09:47.

Yes, because somebody could die! LAUGHTER It always goes dark with

:09:48.:09:54.

you! I met somebody last night and she was Italian but she was from the

:09:55.:09:59.

part bitterly that borders Slovenia and she speaks of dialect. Her last

:10:00.:10:06.

name translates to wooden mask of a witch. That's a proper surname! The

:10:07.:10:12.

book is called Theft By Finding. That was a comment someone made to

:10:13.:10:18.

you, wasn't it? I was picking up rubbish on the side of the road and

:10:19.:10:22.

I found a ?5 note. She asked if I kept it and I said of course. She

:10:23.:10:26.

said, that is left by finding. It seemed like a good name for the book

:10:27.:10:32.

because my diary is basically things I found or overheard, things that

:10:33.:10:36.

were told to me. This woman told me a story, for example, a couple of

:10:37.:10:43.

days ago. She wanted me to sign a book to her goddaughter and she told

:10:44.:10:46.

me when her goddaughter was a baby the family convinced her that as

:10:47.:10:50.

long as she was naked she was invisible. They have all this

:10:51.:10:55.

footage of her marching into the kitchen at bedtime and opening the

:10:56.:11:00.

refrigerator and getting Coca-Cola, completely naked. They would

:11:01.:11:02.

continue to talk as if she wasn't there to convince her. LAUGHTER Very

:11:03.:11:11.

unfair! I want to show a picture to our viewers. You picked up rubbish

:11:12.:11:18.

from your side -- from the side of the street. Horsham District Council

:11:19.:11:27.

have named a bin lorry after you. It was the biggest honour of my life to

:11:28.:11:31.

have a garbage truck named after me. They didn't have to do that. I've

:11:32.:11:36.

picked up tonnes and tonnes of garbage on the side of the road

:11:37.:11:42.

where I live. Why? It's my hobby. It is quite a strange hobby. But it's a

:11:43.:11:50.

good one. Depending on the time of the year I spent between four and

:11:51.:11:56.

eight hours a day. Are you discerning, do you pick up all

:11:57.:11:59.

rubbish? I have to pick it up. Some of the things I find are pretty

:12:00.:12:03.
