21/07/2017 Breakfast

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga

A warning that UK skies could be running out of room.

Today will be the busiest air-travel day on record.

As the summer holiday season kicks off, air-traffic chiefs call

for drastic modernisation in the way aircraft are guided

A record 8,800 flights are expected to take to the skies today.

I'm here at air traffic control in Swanwick to find out how

Also this morning: A powerful earthquake strikes near tourist

resorts in Greece and Turkey, killing two people and injuring

The former American football star, OJ Simpson, has been granted parole

just nine years in to his 33 year sentence.

I have done my time. I have done it as respectfully as anybody can.

The Americans lead the way at the Open Championship.

Jordan Spieth's five under par alongside Brooks Koepka

and Matt Kuchar going into the second day at Royal

Hannah Cockroft wins her third Gold medal

of the World Para-Athletics Championships.

We'll be live at the sports club where it all began for her in Leeds.

And Carol has the weather from Buckingham Palace this morning.

Good morning. It is a beautiful start here. I am here because

tomorrow the state rooms inside Buckingham Palace opened with a new

exhibition, showing the gifts given to the Queen during her reign, and a

room dedicated to Diana, Princess of Wales. Outside in the Rose Garden we

have sunshine, sunshine for more than an eastern parts of the UK, but

for Wales and the south-west it will be wet and very windy, but I will

have more details in 15 minutes. Thank you.

First, our main story, air traffic controllers are warning

that UK skies are running out of room for record

It comes on what is expected to be the busiest ever day

for controllers, with nearly 9,000 flights expected.

The skies above us could be busier today than they have ever been,

as people set off on their summer holidays.

Air traffic controllers so they are expecting to handle

a record 8,800 flights today and they are warning

NATS is half owned by government and controlled air traffic

across the UK, they are expecting more than 770,000 flights

Air traffic bosses say they can safely manage the busier skies

but warn passengers of a future risk of regular delays if major changes

are not made to how UK airspace is managed.

They want traditional flight paths changed with more satellite

navigation used instead of ground-based radio beacons

to allow aircraft to climb, cruise, and descend more efficiently.

The Department of Transport consulted on changing

the way our skies are managed earlier in the year but they are yet

And it is not just our skies that will be busier today, the RAC

predicting this weekend our roads will see the busiest weekend of the

summer. And what we must not forget his people are excited about getting

away for their holidays, as they should be. Tell us what is happening

where you are, it is a treat to be where you are. It is, yes, ethnic

peak today. Most people don't see it except for the movies. It is very

different from the movies. It is calm collected today. It is ahead of

the busiest day of the year, potentially the busiest these guys

have ever dealt with, as more planes take to the skies. As you can see

me, they are hard at work, and these guys here at Swanwick control the

airspace south of England. In this part of the building, they are

looking after the high up planes. It is really busy because over the

other side of the building, which we will see later on the programme,

they also manage the landing. As you say, lots of people excited about

going on holiday. This is the practical end of things. This is the

screen. I can talk it through. This is a live screen which shows all

other planes currently in the southern area of the UK airspace.

They are moving around at the moment. We have a lot of planes

getting ready to land at Heathrow. Because it has just turned 6am that

is when Heathrow runways open and lots of those planes will be landing

and taking off, taking everyone away on their holiday. I like that

screen. Thanks very much. We will speak year later.

Two people have been killed and dozens of others injured

after an earthquake struck Turkish and Greek tourist resorts

The deaths were on the Greek island of Kos, where the ceiling

The BBC's Turkey correspondent Mark Lowen can bring us the latest

Good morning. Could you give us the assessment. This happened in the

early hours of this morning UK time. Just give us an assessment of what

we know. I am speaking to you from the Greek island of Lesbos, not far

from the epicentre of the quake between Kos and Bodrum. It was quite

large, six points seven, and it was fairly shallow. -- 6.7. It was just

over six miles deep in the Aegean Sea. It caused at least two dead on

the Greek island of Kos. One of those we understand is an elderly

Turkish citizen. One of Swedish origin and dozens injured. Five of

them seriously injured. Some have been airlifted to the larger island

of Rhodes. There was structural damage in Kos, the ceiling of a bar

collapsed, and some other buildings collapsed as well. And there were

some large waves felt on oath Bodrum and Kos. And both Greece and Turkey

are active, they are both on significant fault line. There was a

major earthquake in Turkey six years ago that killed 700 people in the

east of the country. In 1999 earthquakes in the country killed

20,000 people. And one in Greece killed 140 people. For the moment,

thank you very much. Former American football star OJ

Simpson is to be released from prison this autumn

after serving nine years of a 33 In 1995, Simpson was acquitted

of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend, turning him into one

of the most divisive figures His parole hearing was

broadcast on US television. Our Los Angeles correspondent

James Cook reports. It was the trial of the century, an

American superstar accused of stabbing to death his ex-wife and

her friend. OJ Simpson had been arrested after a low speed car chase

across Los Angeles, broadcast live to a nation in shock. But that's not

why he is in prison. OJ Simpson not guilty of the crime of murder. He

was arrested in LA for raiding a hotel room in 2007 to reclaim

sporting memorabilia he said was his. Nine years later he appeared

before the Parole Board stating his case for freedom. I have done my

time. I have done it as respectfully as anyone can. If you talk to the

wardens, they will tell you I gave them my word, I believe in the jury

system. I have honoured their verdict. And the Parole Board except

that argument. So, based on all of that, Mr Simson, I vote to grant

parole when eligible. More than 20 years after his sensational

acquittal it is clear that OJ Simpson still commands an audience.

Millions of Americans tuned into his parole hearing. But support may be

fading. One recent poll suggests that only 7% of Americans now think

that the fallen star is not a killer.

Lots of people gonna be talking about that today.

Later, we'll be speaking to OJ Simpson's former defence lawyer.

The Environment Secretary, Michael Gove, will today warn that

after Brexit farming subsidies must be earned rather than simply handed

Let's get some more details from our political correspondent

Chris Mason, who is in Westminster for us.

Good morning. There was lots of talk about whether or not farmers should

be getting the EU farming subsidies that they get, and the terms in

which they receive them, and that is what is addressed now? Yes, it is a

very huge issue. We hear a lot in the context of Brexit, rows about

the economy and immigration, and whether there will be a transitional

arrangement after we leave the EU. The impact on agriculture and the

environment is potentially absolutely massive. The figures are

huge. Around ?3 billion is currently received every year in EU subsidies

to farmers, around half of their income. This is the first big speech

by the environment Secretary, Michael Gove. He says he doesn't

want to see a situation where farmers get money pretty much in

proportion to how much land they have. He says that there has to be a

correlation with the environmental work that they do as well. He will

also say he wants to see what he sees as a green Brexit and that he

is an environmentalist. He is argument is it makes sense because

not just it is important and we might care about looking at it and

enjoying it in the summer holidays, but also for future generations,

proof that Brexit extends beyond the stuff that often makes headlines.

Thank you very much. Speak to you later.

The number of people in Yemen with cholera is now the largest ever

recorded in any country in a single year.

The outbreak started three months ago and Oxfam says there is already

Cholera causes severe nausea and dehydration.

The epidemic follows two years of brutal civil war in Yemen

The number of pupils being excluded from schools in England

is at the highest level for nearly a decade.

In the last year there were nearly 350,000 permanent

or fixed term exclusions from state schools.

More than 11,000 of those were for sexual misconduct,

Road tolls on the Severn bridges will be scrapped by the end of next

year, putting an end to what some described as a tax on entering

Ministers say the decision will deliver a significant boost

to the local economy, and strengthen links

Laura Jones is standing on the English side of the crossing

Very good morning to you, Laura. Just tell us a little more about the

story. Yes, welcome to a windswept Severn Beach this morning. They've

been charging people to cross here since 1966 when the first Severn

crossing was opened. Back then it cost about 12p to cross this, here

is the second Severn crossing, open since 1996. Now, 25 million journeys

are made across both bridges each year. It costs considerably more now

than it did back then, around ?7 for cars, ?20 for lorries. They have

been talking about scrapping these tolls for quite sometime now. But of

course yesterday we got the formal announcement that they were to go at

the end of 2018. Everyone here broadly speaking is happy about it.

Something they are not very happy about is the announcement about the

electrification of the train line between Cardiff and Swansea, which

is now going to be scrapped as all. We will bring you more later. Thank

you very much, Laura. Landing on the moon might have been

one small step for man, but for a bag used to collect

the first samples of dust and rock The seller had bought the bag

on a government auction website three years ago

for less than $1,000. It remained for years

unidentified in a box at the Johnson Space centre

in Houston and was once nearly Looks like a Hoover bag. Doesn't it

just. Just a little further back. One Quesne $8 -- 1.8 million

dollars. Appearances can be deceptive. Yes. Like the picture

behind you, because it looks calm between Rory McIlroy and his caddie,

but it wasn't, was it? McHattie was the man of the moment. They are

normally the human punch bags. Yesterday the tables were turned.

Fitzgerald turned to Rory McIlroy, he was going terribly, and he said

you are Rory McIlroy, sunshine, get a grip. Witnessed by people nearby?

Well, no, there were people around, and it wasn't picked up on the

cameras, but Lawrie taught about it later, it was quite dramatic.

The Americans lead the way going into the second day

of the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, but wind and rain

is expected to cause problems for players today.

Jordan Spieth's round of five under par means he's in front alongside

Brooks Koepka, who's this year's US Open winner,

Rory McIlroy is six off the pace at the end of the day.

Hannah Cockroft and Georgina Hermitage both win gold

as Great Britain claim seven more medals at

the Para Athletics World Championships in London.

Chris Froome has climbed another mountain closer to winning the Tour

de France after his main rivals couldn't distance him at the top

And England's Women's World Cup final opponents have been decided.

They'll play India on Sunday after surprising the defending

At 8:30am we will have the women's half cup trophy here, with Holly

Colvin, a former star! I've seen it on television, not in person.

They are always a bit deceptive. Another example!

The weather is said to be calm. I'm not sure that's the case today, but

Carol will make us feel better, because you're at Buckingham Palace

this morning! Good morning. It is lovely here at

the rose garden of Buckingham Palace. The palace is in that

direction. The roses are chosen for their fragrance and each bed has the

same flower in it, the same breed, and we are looking at the same

colour. You won't find the same colour adjacent to each other in

this garden. The reason we are here is because tomorrow the new

exhibition opens, all about gifts given to the Queen during her rain

and there is also a broom dedicated to Diana, Princess of Wales -- room.

Outside it's a chilly start where we have clear skies and today it will

be wet and windy in the west. Especially the south-west and Wales.

That's because we've got low pressure coming in, already bringing

showers. It will turn heavier with rain through the day and it will be

accompanied by gusty winds. Especially on the coast of west

Wales and south-west England, but even inland as well. Cloud will

build ahead of it but we also have lots of dry weather in east and

north. I the afternoon in Scotland we will have some of that range

living in Northern Ireland, across south-west Scotland and although

cloud will build there will be sunshine in the north and east. You

could catch the odd shower in north-west England, but north-east

England scene dry conditions. Down the east coast we hang on to

sunshine at times in east Anglia and the London area and into the

south-east. Through the Midlands and towards the south coast there's the

risk a shower. Towards south-west England and Wales we have the heavy

rain and gusty winds. By 4pm it is starting to move away from the

extreme south-west and west of Wales, although there will be

showers. The Northern Ireland the rain would have pushed away and then

it will dry up nicely and we have sunshine and showers into the

afternoon. British evening and overnight on that rain it slowly

moves eastwards. Ahead of it in the north it will be dry and behind it

it will be dry. However, further showers in the middle of the night

coming our way through the south-west and some of those could

be heavy and fun to read, with hail, but not like those we saw earlier

this week. Tomorrow we start with weather fronts in east, moving to

the North Sea, but lingering in Scotland. For the rest of us it's a

mixture of bright spells, sunshine and showers and again a couple of

those showers could be heavy and slow moving, so you will see quite a

lot of rain in a small amount of time, but some of them could miss

them all together. In the Sunday we see a bit of rain across eastern

parts of Scotland, fringing towards north-east England. That will

fragment through the day and again on Sunday it is another day of

sunshine and showers for top temperatures in the next few days

are a roundabout where they should be at this stage in July, but

nowhere near where they were this time last week.

Thanks very much, Carroll. It looks glorious!

A look through the papers now. We will have more on this, this

morning, the news that there was this parole hearing for OJ Simpson

yesterday. It was compelling watching him give his evidence. They

say he will be freed, as his parole has been successful, in October. We

will be hearing more about that later. The main story is about post

Brexit and how it works in practice, this is the view with foreign

criminals convicted here. A picture of OJ Simpson also on the

front of the Times. We will speak to his former defence lawyer later.

Again a story on Brexit as well, about orders remaining open up to

two years after Brexit -- borders. And a story about a woman who has

become Britain's top judge for the first time. She is 72 and she will

be the next president of the Supreme Court, in an announcement expected

today. The Guardian paying close attention

to that press conference yesterday between David Davis and his French

counterpart, trying to work out what has and what hasn't been achieved in

terms of those negotiations. What have we got? Snoring is linked

to Alzheimer's. There are lots of other stories around this, that

sleeping problems put you at higher risk.

Sleep is something we talk a lot about. And something we don't get

enough of! Snoring?

If I've been out to a party or something...

But apparently you just have to turn on the hillside. Don't lie on your

back. -- your side. This shows how close you can get to the action at

the golf, especially on links courses.

Rory McIlroy, the whole crowd almost playing the shop with them. Look up

close they can get, as he made his recovery. Think of the pressure!

How disciplined, given the proximity, is everyone just...

There's never a joker in the pack? Sometimes, but then you will be

ejected. That's a rule. You don't put the players off, especially the

home players, the ones you want to support. The other story are wanted

to bring you is over the years this has fascinated me. Human beings

against beasts. We had Jesse Owens beating the hall is, we had the man

versus horse race, the man who raced and got beaten by a cheetah and the

latest is Michael Phelps against a shark. He has done it and we will

find out what happened on Monday. But the shark was obviously in a

cage but there's this comparison between their diets. The shark has

to eat seals and thankfully Michael Phelps sticks to porridge and fruit.

So they encouraged the shark to move as quickly as it could?

Yes. I imagine it would be hard to get a shark to do what you want it

to do. Put something at the end? Like the

pig races, where you put some food at the end. But Michael Phelps had a

flicker. A motor? -- flipper.

Their normal speed is six mph, for both.

Thanks, see you later. Last night she claimed her third

gold at the World Para Athletics Championships, making

Hannah Cockroft one of the most successful Para-athletes

of all time. She has never lost a race in major

competition, so you can see why she has been nicknamed Hurrican Hannah.

-- Hurricane. I know you will be speaking to many people very

inspired by her this morning? Absolutely. What a night it was for

her last night, as she won her third gold of the championships. Not just

that, it is her 10th world title. This is an early-morning training

session. Some of the guys have come out, having been inspired by

watching Hannah last night. It is her club. These people regard her as

a friend as well as an inspiration. But have a chat to Matt. You were

watching the race last night. Were you nervous for her? She wins

everything. Did you expect her to? Idea little bit, but I was nervous

because I found out she was a little bit unwell in the previous hours --

I did a little bit. How big an inspiration is she in this sport?

Huge. She is just huge in the sport. She has so many people into the

sport. People come up to us and say, I thought I would come and try it

out because I've watched Hannah do it. It's really good because it just

heightens how good it really is for everybody else. Thank you very much.

Let's have a chat to Michelle. You've only been doing this for

about 12 months? That's right. Why did you get into it? To be honest,

I've been watching Hannah and she is a total inspiration to me. So she is

the reason? Absolutely. I was a basketball player before and then

started doing a degree. When I finished that I had the time to

dedicate it to sport and wanted to get into wheelchair racing and I

absolutely loved it, was cooked straightaway. You were saying to me

before that it has kind of transform your life? Absolutely. When you

first become disabled, I was able bodied until the age of 23, and when

you first become disabled it is difficult. I found racing and

playing sport helps me with confidence and I've become a

completely different person as a result of that. Truly amazing.

Amazing, thank you, Michelle. Let me bring you over to Nick, who I

thought I was going to have to flag down while racing along this track,

but thanks for stopping! These chairs are incredible. You make it

look so easy. I'm guessing it's not. Talk to me about how you control it.

When you are going down the street, this is set to straight. When you

come flying around it you keep this bit to go around the bend. That's

quite a lot of stuff to keep out of control, trying not to fall off. You

get used to it. A lot of practice. Yeah, but you're pretty good at it.

I'm doing all right! Thanks. The hope is that Hannah will be an

inspiration to even more people and get even more people into this

sport. Thanks very much. Of course we will be talking to Hannah

Cockroft little later on. This is Breakfast,

with Charlie Stayt and Naga We'll bring you all the latest news

and sport in a moment, We'll speak to Team GB's golden

girl, Hannah Cockroft, who won her tenth world title last

night to maintain her amazing record of never losing at a

major championships. Throughout the morning,

Carol will be showing us around the stunning gardens

of Buckingham Palace, as it prepares to open its doors

to the public for the summer. And he's not just a rascal,

he's Dizzee Rascal. The platinum-selling pioneer

of grime is back with his first new album in four years,

and he will join us But now a summary of this

morning's main news. Air traffic controllers are warning

that UK skies are running out of room for record

numbers of planes. It comes on what is expected to be

the busiest ever day for controllers, with nearly

9,000 flights expected. Air traffic chiefs say a redesign

of the UK's ageing network of flight paths and air routes

is urgently needed. Two people have been killed

and around 100 others have been injured on the Greek island of Kos

during a strong earthquake. The tremor struck under the sea

between Greece and Turkey There was also flooding

in the Turkish resort of Bodrum After being shaken from their sleep,

locals and tourists on the island of Kos ran into the streets to see the

damage. Officials on the island said two people were killed when the

ceiling of a building collapsed. More than 100 are reported to be

injured. 1:30am in the morning we were woken by a tremendous shaking

off the whole building. The fans were thrown around, a mirror came

off, lasting approximately 10- 15 seconds. Myself, my wife and two

children just got ours tough as quick as we could and as we made our

layout there was a second shop. Tremors that lasted a few minutes

were enough to damage buildings that have stood for more than a century.

British tourist Ricky Shah was in his hotel room at the time. It was

around 30 seconds you tell the whole room shake. A couple of bottles fell

off obviously from the night stand and you couldn't really here. And

then suddenly you hurt other people kind of... There was commotion.

Children were waking and crying. In the Turkish resort of boardroom

these people were at a restaurant when the ground began to shake. The

small tsunami triggered by the quake led to localised flooding.

Authorities report there has been no major damage to the city but have

warned people to be aware of after-shocks.

For many brides buying a wedding dress can be an expensive business

This intricate creation with 15,00 hand-cut butterflies

and a six-foot train is made entirely out of toilet paper.

It won $10,000 in a New York fashion competition.

The top 20 dresses will be donated to brides whose plans were shattered

when a chain of bridal shops went out of business last week.

That would have been traumatic for them. Is that one made of toilet

paper as well? No. Oh, apparently they all are. That is stunning. You

just don't want it to rain on your wedding day. Or tread on the edge,

it would rip. That is beautiful. We are all impressed. Really impressed!

In the spirit of recycling. It hasn't been used. Later it will be

if you need to blow your nose. I see what you mean. That spoils it

rather. LAUGHTER. Just being practical. We hope that it doesn't

rain for them. And in golf. At the Open, the complete opposite, it will

favour those who get out first. Yesterday it was pouring down.

Andrew Johnson is one under par. It is a good time to go out now. The

rain comes at ten or 11 when Rory McIlroy goes out. Then the strong

wind... Sorry, what was his name. Andrew "The beef" Johnson. His

nickname? Yes. Sorry, it is a bit of an in jokes with sports presenters

and players. They are just about to go out. Rory McIlroy has the

momentum. Anyway, there is lots to get through.

The Americans lead the way going into the second day

Jordan Spieth's round of five-under par means he's in front alongside

Brooks Koepka, who's this year's US Open winner,

But Englishman Paul Casey is just one shot behind them.

He goes into day two at four under par.

It looked like Rory McIlroy could be going out of contention

He was five-over through the front nine but recovered with four birdies

to finish six shots behind the leaders.

I am proud of myself for hanging in there. I needed to stay as positive

as I could. I wasn't very positive. My caddie was a big help today. He

was trying to keep me as positive as possible. Trying to remind me that I

have won this before. Don't feel any pressure, play your game and you

will be OK. The last 12 holes that is what I did and thankfully I am

still in the tournament. Maybe surprise at being able to

start this Open extremely strong and not have to grind much the next few.

At this course and at this Open, at the Open Championship, specifically

here, the conditions change this entire leaderboard, so it is a

really good start. A quick look at the leaderboard,

then, and it's the three Americans Spieth and Koepka could face

the worst of the weather He finished runner up the last time

the Open was held at Birkdale. For home favourite Tommy Fleetwood,

well, he's facing a battle to make the cut at the course he used

to sneak onto as a kid. Britain's most successful

para-athlete, Hannah Cockroft, became a 10-time world champion last

night as she won gold in the T34 Hurricane Hannah claimed her third

winner medal of the Para athletic championships in London last night,

with a championship record time of 58.30 seconds, while her teammate

Kare Adenegan took home At the moment, it just feels like...

I didn't come in confident that I was going to do it. I didn't really

think about what it might mean at the end. I went for it and hope for

the best. I think I need to go away and think about what I need to do. I

am already thinking, this is what I need to work on to get there. I

think when you know you are not at your best and there are things that

you can do better. Georgina Hermitage broke the world

record as she defended her T37 Britain picked up a silver

of Froome to claim He's now 23 behind

Froome in the standings, but Saturday's time trial

will favour the race leader. Britain's Lizzie Deignan

Very good, thank you. Nearly 9,000 flights will take off

and land across the UK making it air traffic control's busiest

day of they year. With a record number

of planes expected in the air this summer there are concerns

that the service is being stretched Colletta is at air traffic

control in Swanwick. Swanwick, Swanwick? Yes, Swanwick.

Swanwick, Swanwick. Good morning, everyone. Yes, it is close to

Southampton on the south coast of England, one of them at locations

where they control all of the UK. Here they are looking after the

skies south of Birmingham down, and also controlling all of the landing

and takeoff is in one of the world's busiest airspace around London. We

have so many airports. These guys behind the I traffic controllers.

This is a live workspace. They are speaking with pilots in the air as

we speak. They are watching all of the plane. Some of them landing in

the UK, others passing over from America, and landing in Europe. The

man in charge of this on what is expected to be the busiest day of

the year is Jamie. Talk through, you have seen a workload increase over

the last couple of years, how do these guys manage the stress and the

difficulties of that? They are incredibly well-trained, very

professional and we make sure a great deal of planning goes into the

busiest time of the year. We start engaging with airports and airline

customers months before to understand the schedules and make

sure we have the right resources and controllers in place to make sure

that people can get away for a well earned break. It is hard when you

look at the screens to picture what is happening above us. These guys

are almost thinking in 3D, making sure that planes not only don't

crash into each other head-on, also they make sure that they are at the

right height. Absolutely. There are some key skills that you need,

spatial awareness, planning ahead, staying cool under pressure of those

three things and we select on that basis. There is a lengthy training

programme, it takes three years to train a control on their own, and on

that basis we have the right people in the right place to handle the

massive amount of traffic we do. We will talk through the programme

about how potentially airspace in the UK needs to change over the next

couple of years to deal with that increased amount of demand we have

seen with more people going on holiday. Cake is with us this

morning. On the ground, passengers are feeling the increase too, not

just controllers? At this time of year they have seen the volume of

passengers they are in with the crowds and airports, and the

pressure we have with security. It is about preparing for the volume.

More passengers, airlines, more routes, more people through

security, you have to get more people through passport control. All

airlines will give you a time to get to the airport. Don't leave it until

the last minute. Be prepared. Get there in advance. Give yourself

extra time. It is all about being prepared. That is really good advice

for anyone heading to the airports today on potentially the busiest of

the year as we gear up for the summer holidays. Thank you very

much. The good thing is, when you on a plane, when you get through the

clouds the sky is always blue. That is true. That is nice. Unless it is

night-time. Carol has the weather for us now on that theme and we are

rather privileged this morning, because you are in the gardens of

Buckingham Palace. That's right. It is lovely here.

Look at the size of the Waterloo Bath! It was commissioned by

Napoleon. He assumed he was going to be victorious in battle, so he

decorated it with scenes depicting Matt, however he lost the battle, so

this was presented to King George IV and finished At a later date. We are

in the rose garden, Buckingham Palace is in that direction. Under

the clear skies across many northern and eastern areas it is quite a

chilly start of the day, but it will warm up nicely. The forecast for

today is wet and windy, especially in the west. And especially for

Southwest England and Wales where we have the heaviest rain and the

strongest winds. At the moment it is showery but the showers will be

replaced by rain and gusty winds, especially along the coast of west

Wales and south-west England, but even inland you will notice it. Away

from that the clouds are building. The eastern and northern areas hang

on to the sunshine. At the time we get to 4pm the Scotland some of the

rain will move out of Northern Ireland, getting into south-west

Scotland. The cloud building in the north and east. Northwest England

has a couple of showers. As we come down the east coast of England into

east Anglia, Essex, Kent, around London, it will be dry with

temperatures up to about 24. But there is the risk of a shower,

especially in the Midlands and down the south coast. Further west we are

back into heavier rain and squally wind is. But by then the worst of it

will have moved away from the far south-west of England and the far

west of Wales, but still raining in Wales. The northern island of rain

makes good progress. Drying up nicely, with sunshine and showers.

Through deepening and overnight the rain continues to slowly edged

towards the east -- through the evening. Headed of a -- ahead of its

dry weather. Then showers across Wales and south-west England. Some

will be heavy and thundery. Not to the extent that we saw earlier this

week. So we start tomorrow a game with those showers. Tomorrow is

going to be a mixture of sunshine and showers. Some eastern areas with

a weather front continue to hang on to rain. That will eventually become

confined to eastern and north-eastern parts of Scotland. If

you are out of the showers in the sunshine it will feel pleasant. In

the Sunday you can see the rain right across eastern parts of

Scotland and fringing into the north-east of England. That will

fragment through the day. We also have a mixture of sunshine and

showers, but drier from the west, for example in Northern Ireland.

Temperatures over the next few days, they are roughly where they should

be at this stage in July. The reason we are in Buckingham Palace this

morning is because tomorrow the summer exhibition starts. It shows

lots of gifts that the Queen has been presented with over her rain

and also there will be a broom dedicated to Diana, the excess of

Wales -- room. This is what we saw yesterday.

20 years on, a tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales, to commemorate

the anniversary of her death. Diana Princess of Wales was well-known for

her love of Dan. You can see this ballet shoes behind me. She used to

hang those on her sitting-room door. Then we have this magnificent

writing desk, which she would have written her correspondence from. We

have picture frames with pictures of her sons and it was her sons, the

Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry, who selected most of the items that

you can see here. Two of the pieces on display are her cup woks, part of

the traditional boarding school kit that she would have taken with her.

Full of sweets. Its enormous! Yes. At the right-hand side her

collection of the sets, including classical music such as Pavarotti

and popular music such as Diana Ross and George Michael. Gifts given to

Diana also take pride of place. A leather briefcase wedding present

and the present from President Reagan. And in the next room

something different. It celebrates some of the extraordinary gifts the

queen has been given in her 65 year rain. But what do you give someone

that has everything? A signed picture of JFK given to the Queen by

the man himself? Saddle given by the Portuguese. Many of the gifts given

to the Queen represent the local craftsmanship of the particular

country, rather like Easter Road, donated by the people from Nigeria.

-- rather like this the Rome. Only a person of oil status could sit on

this throne. Topped off with a beaded crown. We found some of the

more bizarre things. London Underground sign, personalised

passes for the Commonwealth Games and a bagful of salt, a 90th

birthday present from one of the British Virgin Islands. And then

this, a portrait from the president of Rwanda. From the frankly quite

unique to the exquisitely ornate. It is a lifetime of gifts.

There were some amazing gifts in there but the thing I was most

intrigued by worker Lambie as that the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were

given after the Commonwealth Games. It must be so difficult to buy a

gift for the Queen. You can't really say, what's your favourite perfume?

It must have been so hard to come up with something original!

You're absolutely right. We will talk more about that amazing

exhibition of little later in the morning. Thanks very much.

The disgraced America sports star OJ Simpson is to be released

on parole after serving nine years in a Nevada prison.

He was found guilty in 2008 of a botched armed robbery

in Las Vegas, exactly 13 years to the day

after he was sensationally cleared of killing his wife and her friend

in the so-called trial of the century.

Ozzie Fumo was part of OJ Simpson's legal team that tried

Thank you very much for joining us on BBC Breakfast. It's good to have

the chance to talk to you. How much of a surprise was that OJ Simpson

was released on parole? Thank you for having me. It was no surprise to

me. The prison system in Nevada bases release parole on a points

system. In 2013 when he went for his first parole system, because the

sentences were consecutive he was granted parole then. He was deemed a

risk assessment factor and he was deemed a level three, or had three

points. You can be released if you have up to five. So I knew that the

only point that could be added to the risk assessment was if he got a

write-up in prison. In prison, in Nevada, you can get a write-up for

bringing an extra sugar packet to yourself, exchanging clothes with an

inmate, it's easy to get a write-up. For a man to spend 9.5 years in

prison and not received a single write-up was almost unheard-of. He

said he spent a conflict free life, he smiles when he was given the

parole... Given the release on parole. You had contact with him

while he was in prison. What did he tell you about life in prison? Life

in Nevada state prison is not a life anybody wants to lead. You're locked

in a cage with perhaps another cellmate, it's about eight x 10'

wide, there's a toilet and you have to do your business in front of man.

You get to choose every day between hygiene or exercise. You don't get

to do both. So it ages you. I believe it takes years off your

life, being in prison. He is now 70 years old, being released into the

world again. A world where it's going to be very difficult for him,

I would imagine. Really want to keep his life private? Adding that

exactly what he wants. One of the things that touched me when he was

speaking to the Parole Board is he has mixed 36 birthdays and life

moves on for everybody else. He wants to spend time with his sister,

who lives in Sacramento, 40, he wants to spend the majority of his

time in Florida with his children. If the Parole Board allows him to do

that he will move back there. He will be given a parole officer. In

the US you can move between states if the other state will accept you.

So he will have to apply to what's called the interstate compact clause

in Florida will have to say whether or not they will accept him and he

can move back. That's their choice if that's what he wants to do. I

don't believe he will stay in Nevada but I think we will quickly apply

for that interstate compact and go back to Florida and he probably

wants to live the rest of his life in solitude. I doubt we will see him

about much. This is a man who was known by many as having been accused

of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend. Notorious, almost, I think

it is fair to say. He is a name that people are very familiar with. When

he comes out I imagine there will be media offers to talk to him. I'm not

sure what his financial situation is. You think he will be amenable to

that? Will we see him back in the spotlight, in terms of media

coverage? I know there's been a tsunami of media coverage when he

got the parole hearings. It will probably be the same when he gets

out. He will be inundated with requests. I doubt he will do

anything, myself. Although he wrote me a letter while I was part of the

Nevada state assembly, asking for books and educational materials for

the prison system. He spoke about the systems he has received and he

said perhaps he would start a blog or some kind of web cast, and maybe

we will see him doing his own thing, but I don't know. It will be so

different when he gets out. I think we will just remain in seclusion for

as long as possible and just get used to life again. Thanks very much

for talking to us. OJ Simpson's former defence lawyer.

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

This is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

A warning that UK skies could be running out of room.

Today will be the busiest for air travel on record.

As the summer holiday season kicks off, air-traffic chiefs call

for drastic modernisation in the way airspace is managed.

A record 8,800 flights are expected to take to the skies today.

I'm here at air traffic control in Swanwick to find out how

Also this morning: A powerful earthquake strikes near tourist

resorts in Greece and Turkey killing two people and injuring

The former American football star, OJ Simpson has been granted parole,

just nine years in to his 33 year sentence.

I have done it as respectfully as anybody can.

In sport, Americans lead the way at the Open Championship.

Andrew Johnson began first, four shots off the three Americans who

lead the way. As Hannah Cockroft wins

her third Gold medal of the World Para-athletics

Championships, we'll talk to her after that victory

and to those inspired And Carol has the weather

from Buckingham Palace this morning. Good morning. We are right next to

the lake. Buckingham Palace is behind the trees. The reason we are

here is because tomorrow and exhibition exhibition opens up.

There is also a room dedicated to Diana, Princess of Wales. A today

there is a lot of sunshine, especially in the north and east.

However, in the west, especially the south-west, we are looking at more

rain and strong winds. I will have First, our main story: Air-traffic

controllers are warning that UK skies are running out of room

for record numbers of planes. It comes on what is expected to be

the busiest ever day for controllers, with nearly

9,000 flights expected. The skies above us could be busier

today than they've ever been, as people set off

on their summer holidays. Air-traffic controllers say

they're expecting to handle a record 8,800 flights today,

and they're warning it NATS, which manages UK airspace,

is half owned by government and controls air traffic

across the UK, they are expecting more than 770,000 flights

to cross our skies this summer. Air traffic bosses say they can

safely manage the busier skies but warn passengers of a future risk

of regular delays if major changes aren't made to how UK

airspace is managed. They want traditional

flight paths changed, with more satellite

navigation used instead of ground-based radio beacons,

to allow aircraft to climb, cruise,

and descend more efficiently. The Department of Transport

consulted on changing the way our skies are managed

earlier in the year but they are yet And it's not just our skies that

will be busier today, the RAC is predicting this

weekend our roads will see It is busy on the road and busy in

the air as well. Colletta is at air traffic control

in Swanwick this morning. You are seeing how it works and how

they are coping with soon-to-be record numbers of planes in the sky

is. Exactly, yes. Good morning, everyone. We are getting a sneak

peek behind-the-scenes at what happens when you get on your plane

and takeoff on your summer holidays this year. These are the guys making

it happen. Behind me you can see a traffic controllers at work. We are

not allowed close to them so we don't disturb them. They are talking

to pilots in the sky at the moment. These guys are controlling the ones

flying really high across UK airspace and lots of those here are

just arriving for their shifts because things are getting very busy

today, especially those controlling the landings and takeoffs around

London, which is one of the busiest air spaces in the world. I showed

you this screen one hour ago for anyone watching. You might notice

considerably more planes now. Each of these numbers is a flight. Of

course they are all at different levels. That is south of the UK,

showing how they are moving around, and the guys keeping on top of it

all, keeping cool, calm and collected, just as you would hope at

this time of year. Thank you very much.

Two people have been killed and around 100 others have been

injured on the Greek island of Kos during a strong earthquake.

The tremor struck under the sea between Greece and Turkey

There was also flooding in the Turkish resort of Bodrum,

After being shaken from their sleep, locals and tourists on the island

of Kos ran into the streets to see the damage.

Many holiday makers chose to camp outside their hotels.

Officials on the island said two people were killed when the ceiling

More than 100 are reported to be injured.

Some were airlifted to the larger island of Rhodes for treatment.

At 1:30am in the morning we were woken by a tremendous

The fans were thrown around, a mirror came off, lasting

Myself, my wife and two children just got our stuff as quick

And, as we made our way out, there was a second shock.

Tremors that lasted a few minutes were enough to damage buildings that

British tourist Ricky Shah was in his hotel room at the time.

It was for about 30 seconds, you could feel the whole room shake.

A few bottles fell off, obviously from the night stand,

And then, suddenly, you heard other people kind of...

In the Turkish resort of Bodrum, these people were at a restaurant

The small tsunami triggered by the quake led to localised flooding.

Authorities report there has been no major damage to the city but have

warned people to be aware of after-shocks.

Let's get a little bit more on this now. Yes, we woke up in the middle

of the night, and it sounds like you were in the London Underground

waiting for a train to approach. Then it just starts to shake

violently in the apartment, and my husband and I had been told it is a

good idea to get outside the building. So, yes. Quite concerned,

we were slightly concerned because our children were in town clubbing,

so we had to get in touch with them to make sure that they were fine and

able to get home OK. Yes, conflicting reports about the damage

done to buildings. Can you give us a sense of what you have seen or

heard. That is the strange thing, they were in the main town, which is

about 45 minutes from Kos, there was no collateral damage. We were in a

resort and there is absolutely nothing here - everything is fine

and people were quite reassuring, not to worry, and I was concerned

about going to the beach because of a tsunami. It is just not really

what you expect on your summer holidays. No, clearly. Some people

have taken the choice to sleep outside overnight last night,

presumably you would understand that. You seem fairly philosophical

about that but it must have been frightening. It was terrifying. We

have been in Kos several times before and they have had mild

tremors over the last five years, and they are very laid back about

it. They just thought it was OK, don't worry, it happens all the

time. For us this was one of the biggest tremors we have experienced

here. So, for us, it is not normal, we did panic and think, oh my

goodness, what do we do and where do we go? You and your family are safe

and well and you will carry on with your holiday? Yes, indeed, it is the

most beautiful pace and people are so lovely. My thoughts and prayers

to those who have lost their lives. Thank you for your time, Louise.

Louise was one of those caught up in the event, she is on holiday in Kos

at the moment. Two people have lost their lives and we understand 100

have been injured following a day. The former American football star OJ

of the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend,

broadcast on US television. Our Los Angeles correspondent

James Cook reports. The Environment Secretary,

Michael Gove, will today warn that after Brexit farming subsidies must

be earned rather than simply handed Let's get some more details

from our political correspondent Chris Mason, who is in

Westminster for us. Good morning. These subsidies have

always been quite confusing when you try to assess how they are divvied

out and who qualifies for them. Absolutely. Right at the heart of

them for so many years has been at the European Union and the common

agricultural policy as it is known. A huge ticket of expenditure for the

European Union. Half of farmers' income come from subsidies and the

whole process of Brexit was always going to be one that could involve

the potential for a vast amount of change. And Michael Gove, the

Environment Secretary, will say today that instead of a system where

payments are indirect proportion to how much land you have, as a farmer,

he wants to ensure that their environmental obligations are built

into that. He also says there is scope for what he calls a green

Brexit and with the huge amount of laws that we transfer from Brussels

to Westminster and potentially the devolved administrations as well in

Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast, that is a great opportunity for

politicians here to shape the environmental laws of the future.

Some have been sceptical, fearing that a cutback in regulation could

mean a dirty Brexit could come about. The discussion beginning

around a crucial area. OK, thank you very much.

Road tolls on the Severn bridges will be scrapped by the end of next

year, putting an end to what some described as a tax on entering

Ministers say the decision will deliver a significant boost

to the local economy, and strengthen links

Laura Jones is standing on the English side of the crossing

It is an amazing scene. The backdrop is spectacular. Tell us more about

what will happen in practice. It is spectacular. It would be a lot more

spectacular if it was a nice morning. They have been charging

people to drive across here since the first bridge opened in 1966. 30

years later we had this one. And between them, 25 million journeys

are made across them each year. They have been talking about scrapping

the tolls for years. Today we have the official announcement they will

come to an end at the end of 2018. Apart from a view concerns about

increased traffic and congestion, it is hard to find anyone who isn't

really happy about this announcement. Of course, good news

for commuters, holidaymakers and for the local economy. One piece of not

so good transport news involves the railways. Plans to electrify the

line between Paddington and south Wales, which have been to set with

problems and they are no longer going between Cardiff and Swansea.

Thank you very much. Crime in England and Wales has

seen its largest annual rise in a decade, according to figures

from the Office for National The Government says it must do more

to tackle the increase, while a separate Home Office report

shows the number of police officers Overall, the total number of crimes

reported to and recorded by the police rose by 10%

between April 2016 and March 2017 Violent crime was up by 18%,

robbery by 16% and sex There was also a big rise

in firearms offences, up by 23%, with an increase

in knife crime of 20%. Joining us now is Sir Peter Fahy,

former chief constable for Greater Manchester Police,

and Alison Cope, who's an anti-knife campaigner after her son

was stabbed to death. Thank you so much for coming in to

speak to us today. Peter, if we can talk to you first, these figures,

tell us, you know inside out what happens within police forces. What

do you make of these figures? They are very worrying. And against the

lowest number of police officers since 1985 it tells me the police

will be doing more work recording crime than investigating it. The

long-term impact is officers are less proactive, doing less community

work, less work getting on the backs of those criminals. Most crime is

committed by a small number of criminals. These figures indicate

the system has been less effective controlling those people. This

argument between the numbers of police and the rise we are seeing

now. Nick Hurd, minister for policing and the Fire Service, says

the links are not as clear as people think. You seem to say categorically

there is a definite link. No direct link as you say, but over time what

you will see, what these figures indicate, is less control of those

persistent offenders, because of a police force becoming more reactive

and less proactive. That is a direct link, isn't it? It is. I am

confused. These figures are confusing. When you see crime rising

like this, when you know that there are other figures, like the effect

of the prison system, failures in the probation service, which means

the system is less effective on getting on the back of those

criminals, that is a worrying trend, and with the other figures, rising

down and knife crime, that would indicate it is all coming together.

You can reduce police officers in the short-term, but over the

long-term it means they are being less proactive and doing less work,

long-term work, with young people, other agencies, and stay today on

the backs of persistent criminals. You mention the rise in knife crime

and Allison, the perfect time to talk to you. First of all, tell us

what happened to your son. My son was performing at an event for young

boy who was killed the year previously. My son was stabbed once

in the heart and he died seven hours later. By someone he knew? Yes, by

somebody he knew. The reference there was the persistent offenders.

You said to be on top of persistent offenders. So I'm assuming the

person who stabbed your son was not a persistent offender? No, he had

never been arrested before. So now you campaign against carrying

knives. Do you see a correlation between what are doing when it comes

to his doctor and search, education for children about knife crime? Have

you seen a change? Because the inference is that low police officer

numbers are affecting this. I can only go on my own experiences,

because they don't work within the police. I was a normal mum and

overnight it became a very high profile case. I've seen with my own

eyes how difficult it is to get any support for young people who are

struggling. When my son was killed he was well-known in the music

industry, so I had all of his fans, friends, thousands of young people

angry and hurt by his death and I turned to every agency you could

imagine and they said there were no services in my area, most of all for

young people. What was I supposed to do? Is I had to do it myself. I

engage with young people and a lot of them turned their lives around

and went on the right direction, so I saw in my own eyes that

intervention and education was the key to guide these young people. A

lot of people listening will be so full of respect for the work you are

doing now, given what you've been through. In terms of the things

you've learnt, how do you see the rise in the number of young people

carrying knives that seems to be something emerging and you know this

better than anyone. I think we have a generation of young will bat are

the consequences of all the government cut, because these are

the young people brought up when youth services, probation services,

have all been cut. So they are left to their own devices. We always hear

on the news they are out of control, no respect, then you look at the

families, their support has been cut. So this is understandable, why

we are in this position. So many young people are living in fear

because they live their lives through social media now. So

everyday they're seeing a headline, on a bus you will get stabbed, in a

park you will get stabbed. There's been such a breakdown of

communication with young people. There aren't enough positive

messages, that this is a reality. Peter, you listen and your story is

so compelling, your voice is very real because of what has happened.

But those sound like such long-term things. The issue of officers on the

street, try and help us... Does this have a very odd people on the

street? It isn't just about officers on patrol, it is about being really

engaged with schools, youth groups, with people like Alison. She said

her local police have to apply to the lottery fund to get funding and

it's that sort of thing which is really working. It isn't just

officers in yellow jackets, it is about the long-term work, working

with other agencies, working with youth groups. And absolutely being

met, especially with the groups that are most vulnerable. This isn't

local authorities, or the police, because they get their money from

the government and the government, you know, without sounding too

political, this is their fault because they are trying to save

money and over the last 12 months the amount of stabbings has cost the

government, through the courts, the NHS, millions of pounds. Thank you

so much for coming in. It's OK. Thank you for your time. Let's get

the weather forecast. Carol is at Buckingham Palace.

Good morning. It is beautiful here. I am in the rose garden. A beautiful

fragrance coming from the garden. The reason we are here is because

tomorrow inside Buckingham Palace, in the state rooms, the summer

exhibition opens. This year it is looking at gifts the Queen has been

presented with during her rain and there's a room dedicated to Diana,

Princess of Wales. She was fond of dance and we have a picture of her

dancing. Inside that particular room you can see the ballet shoes she

wore. And items that particular room, some of them were chosen by

her sons, the Duke of Cambridge and of course Prince Harry. We will be

showing you around the room in about half an hour. It is a chilly start.

Blue skies in London this morning. We also have rain and wind in the

forecast. That will primarily be in the west today. Wet and windy in the

west, especially Southwest England and Wales. We also have rain in

Northern Ireland and in the south-west parts of Scotland.

Through the day the showers we currently have will turn to rain and

they will turn heavier. The wind will pick up and be particularly

squally around the band of rain in Southwest England and Wales. That's

drifting very slowly eastwards. Ahead of it the cloud will build and

there will be a couple of showers for eastern and northern areas --

but eastern and northern areas of hanging onto the sunshine. Showers

coming in across the south-west. A couple of showers in north-west

England. North-east England has some sunshine. Moving south across the

rest of England, east Anglia and towards Kent and the London area, a

lot of dry weather. Sunny intervals. The cloud building and the risk of a

shower. Shower in the Midlands south-west England. The south-west

England this is where we have the heavy rain. Moving away from

Cornwall in the afternoon and living away from west Wales but still very

much in most of Wales. Don't forget that all the winds. The Northern

Ireland the rain will almost have cleared and then we have an

afternoon of sunshine and showers. As we had through the evening and

overnight what will happen is that rain will continue to slowly move

eastwards. Ahead of it there will be a lot of dry weather and behind it a

lot of dry weather. In the middle of the night we have are the heavy

thundery showers, with hail coming across Wales and south-west England.

Not like we had. Not to the extent we had earlier this week. Tomorrow

we start with those showers. Some of them will be slow-moving. If you

catch one and there will be a lot of rain in a small amount of time will

stop meanwhile we still have a weather front in the east. That

clears from eastern England, but will hang around eastern Scotland,

especially into the north-east. If you are out of the shires tomorrow

it will be pleasant enough, with temperatures about average. For

Sunday we have the rain across eastern Scotland, fringing in the

north-east England. Away from that it's another day of sunshine and

showers. Hit and miss whether you catch it or not, but drying up from

the west. Northern Ireland will have a drier and brighter day.

Temperatures again through this weekend roughly where they should be

at this stage in July. See what you have done with a

co-ordinated roses and address! -- the dress!

A co-ordinated the roses to you. See you later.

An amazing performance by Hannah Cockroft saw her get another title

in the championships. She has never lost a race in a major

competition, so you can see why she has been named Hurricane Hannah by

her friends. Our reporter is in Leeds, with people who have been

inspired by her achievements. Good morning! Good morning. Yes, you join

us at an early morning training session this morning. A lot of

people here who have been inspired by Hannah and a lot of people who

are very proud of her this morning. Not least this man, Paul. You take

some of the credit because you used to be her coach. Do you still get

nervous watching her? You were watching last night? Absolutely,

every time. No matter how great they are, you always get nervous at the

start. It is an eager nervousness. And she always wins? You don't know

until the finish line. It is an excitable nervousness and you just

want each athlete to win. Last night Hannah got a bit nervous at the

start. She was ill, wasn't she? Absolutely. But not knowing how ill

she had been, I'm glad I didn't, I would have been more scared. Thanks

ever so much and congratulations because you share some of the

success. Emma, you make this look incredibly easy, but these tears are

pretty hard to control. How do you work it? -- these chairs. It isn't

like a normal manual chair, you have to use your fist to push and you

push on the rims down here. And to steer you hit this area, that way to

go around the bend and you hit it the other way... To make it go the

other way? To go straight. Complicated, lots to manage at the

same time. I'm just going to go this way to Lightning Lottie. She has

been a massive inspiration? Yes, I got into athletics after watching

Hannah in the London 2012 Paralympics and I thought that I

could do it. I've been doing it for six years and I love competing and

meeting new people. It's just really fun and I really liked racing

against others. And you are really good at it as well. For a go, I just

have to introduce you to Velvet. She is Lottie's assistance dog and the

best behaved dog in the world! He or she is lovely! Thanks very much. We

will be back on the track This is Breakfast,

with Charlie Stayt and Naga The time is just gone 7:30am. The

main stories this morning. Air traffic controllers are warning

that UK skies are running out of room for record

numbers of planes. It comes on what is expected to be

the busiest ever day for controllers, with nearly

9,000 flights expected. Air traffic chiefs say a redesign

of the UK's ageing network of flight paths and air routes

is urgently needed. Two people have been killed

and around 100 others have been injured on the Greek island of Kos

during a strong earthquake. The tremor struck under the sea

between Greece and Turkey There was also flooding

in the Turkish resort of Bodrum After being shaken from their sleep,

locals and tourists on the island -- and another piece of news is OJ

Simpson, former American football star, is to be released on parole

from prison. In 1995, Simpson was acquitted

of the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend,

turning him into one of the most His parole hearing was

broadcast on US television. He will be out of prison later this

year. The number of pupils being excluded

from schools in England is at the highest level

already with Carol at Buckingham Palace. Most people of course don't

get the chance to go and have a look around. The cameras are having a

little look around. It is amazing because some people don't realise

that there is a lake at the back of Buckingham Palace gardens. And we

have been given access inside as well, because any room has been

open, and we have a room with all of the gifts the Queen has received,

really interesting thing. We will see them later, and of course the

Diana room as well, in tribute to Diana, of course. So, lots going on

there. Mike is going to update us in the sport in a little while. Of

course, the Opare is on. -- the Open. Let's go back to one of the

main stories. There was an earthquake this morning

affecting areas including Kos, popular with holidaymakers. Struck

somewhere between Greece and Turkey and two have died. Several injured,

Astala has mentioned. Naomi Broady is a holidaymaker, at a very popular

tourist site on Kos. -- as Charlie mentioned. Thank you for taking the

time to join us on Breakfast. Can you tell us what happened? The best

way I can describe it is basically, like, your room is underwater,

swaying quickly from side to side. It was just incredibly... Never been

involved in anything like that ever. So, you just don't know what's

happening. My mum and I were lying next to each other. She just said,

you know, we need to get out of here. And we did. We ran out. Then

people were really don't know what to think. We were really lucky. Our

hotel wasn't badly affected. People were sleeping outside. So, yes,

surreal and a lot of people injured. We are very pleased you and your

family are OK. And you are able to talk to us now on BBC Breakfast. Can

you tell us what advise you are given? The room was shaking. You got

out. What advice, guidance were you given, what were you told to do? To

be honest, not much. Everyone was just... We were running out. The

staff were all about in a flurry. We were outside of the hotel for about

two hours just sitting there. I had my phone on me luckily. I was

constantly looking at everything, trying to see if there were any

updates. We had half an hour's sleep. Just scared. There has been

quite big after-shocks. The first one, we went to the restaurant, and

the person we asked said, look, it has never happened before.

(INAUDIBLE). Do you want some water? Our mouth or

so dry. My mouth is still a little bit dry. Completely understandable

that you are going to be in some form of shock of course. And

frightened as well. He said these after-shocks were happening. Are

they still happening, are you able to get back into your hotel room?

Have you been given any guidance in that sense as to what happens next?

Luckily, our hotel is OK. We are in our hotel room now. We have been

told by reception basically not to be with anything over Azema heads,

so I shouldn't really be here right now. And they said to stay outside

as much as we can -- our heads. We were in the rest of, we thought it

was over and done with. We were contemplating what happened, then

quite a big after-shocks came and people just looked at each other and

thought, it has happened again, ran outside and... Got out there. My mum

said we could go back in. And I said there was no way I was going back

in. So we stayed out for about three hours in total. And then, yes,

people eventually started going back into their rooms. Some people with

bags, some people literally trying to get out of there. The majority of

people were just trying to be light-hearted because children were

there as well and they didn't want to scare their children, so they

were just joking around. So, as far as advice goes, we've been told to

wait for Foreign Office to give official advice to our holiday rep.

For now basically just told to stay outside and try and relax, but I

don't think that is possible. I think that is completely

understandable. You are obviously shaken. We are grateful for you

taking the time to talk to us. We wish you and your family well. Safe

journey back home as well. And thank you for taking the time to talk to

us. And a reminder, talking about the island of Kos, to make people

were killed and around 100 others injured, and that was one of the

eyewitnesses explaining what happened in the early hours of the

morning. The time is 7:38am and time to talk to Mike. This character here

is the Beef, you are asking who he was earlier. I hadn't heard of him

before, then I realised you mentioned him earlier on, and in the

official introduction, clearly his name is not Beef, his nickname, and

they use his nickname with the formal introduction. He says he

prefers Beef rather than Andrew and doesn't recognise people when they

say Andrew. He doesn't take notice. It goes back to when he was eight

years old and he was playing with his mates and his mate said your

head is like a piece of beef and it has stuck ever since. He has teed

off? He is through three holes and par for the day.

The Americans lead the way going into the second day

of the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, but wind and rain

is expected to cause problems for players today.

Jordan Spieth's round of five-under par means he's in front alongside

Brooks Koepka, who's this year's US Open winner,

The advantage is with those starting earlier because of the weather

changing for the worse. But Englishman Paul Casey is just

one shot behind them. It looked like Rory McIlroy could be

going out of contention completely He was five-over through the front

nine but recovered with four birdies to finish six shots

behind the leaders. I am proud of myself

for hanging in there. I needed to stay as

positive as I could. He was trying to keep me

as positive as possible. Trying to remind me that

I have won this before. Don't feel any pressure,

play your game and you will be OK. The last 12 holes that is what I did

and thankfully I am still Don't forget coverage on 5 Live and

highlights on BBC Two. And highlights on the BBC sport website

cricket ahead of the World Cup final with England- India. The trophy

tiny, tiny little trophy. It isn't like a little Ashes.

It is going to be busy in the air today and we have been told these

amazing figures, 8800 flights in the sky today in the UK, the busiest for

air traffic control. There are concerns the service is being

stretched to its limits and Colletta is that air traffic control for us.

People are fascinated with what goes on, not least because we know the

pressure of the workload, the number of planes in the sky. Looking behind

you, it is high-tech and low-tech, there is a phone to your left, and

then of course we can see the screen is that they are working on on the

other side. Exactly, a mix in here, and of course they are updating

things as they go through the decades, but a lot of what is done

on a day-to-day basis has been exactly the same for the last couple

of decades. What you are seeing behind me is air-traffic controllers

speaking to the pilots and these men and women are in charge of different

airports are specially in the south of England. There are six or seven

looking after Heathrow, the busiest airport in the UK, and lots of

others, these ones, controlled airports further north, Birmingham,

the Midlands, making sure that planes take off and land safely.

Jamie is the boss. I suppose we can see the road network and the rail

network, we don't often see the air network and what happens. And really

how that needs to be updated and improved. It really does. If you and

Madge and airspace as the unit in the sky, it hasn't changed for

decades. It wasn't designed to handle two and a half million

flights a day. So really, if we are going to meet the demand for future

growth in the UK, anticipating over 3 million flights in 2030, we need

to make changes to airspace soon. Interesting to hear the big changes

potentially on the way while these guys are working really hard. And in

the next hour I will speak with one of the air controllers to find out

exactly what it is like to be under that kind of pressure and the

changes that need to come in to improve some of the difference

between the high-tech and the low-tech that you are talking about

here on what is expected to be the busiest day in our airspace a that

we are seeing here in the UK. So, the workforce are out already here

ready for their shifts, ready to go and, as I say, in one hour we will

speak with an air traffic controller. Colletta, really

interesting looking around there. We will talk to you later. Thank you.

Sir Vince Cable was named leader of the Liberal Democrats

without a contest yesterday, after no other candidates came

He says the party can bring common sense and mutual respect back

But just how does he hope to do that?

We can speak to Sir Vince now from our Westminster studios.

Good morning. Thank you very much for your time this morning. One

thing we do know and presumably you know better than anyone else is what

the Liberal Democrats can't do now is what they did before, because

there's no point doing that. What are you going to do differently? The

first thing we should do differently is to address the sort of vast

middle ground of British politics that is largely been abandoned by

the major parties. They've effectively been taken over by

hardline zealots and equally we've got the Labour Party in the hands of

the hard left. What I call the centre ground of moderation has

largely been abandoned and we should occupy it. In particular we should

focus on straightforward economic competence. In Parliament it has

been assumed that political parties are there to offer a sensible

approach to policy because that produces improved living standards,

more money for the health service and the economy. In the last general

election the economy was effectively abandoned, we have this entire focus

on Brexit, we don't know where it will lead, but it's a very good and

we may well finish up with a bad settlement or none at all. Let's cut

to the chase. What is it you want? You want to vote, another

referendum? We want two things. In the immediate future what we want is

to work with people in other parties to try to make sure that things in

the EU that work well for Britain, the single market, the customs

union, the common research and common approach to environmental

issues, that we keep them. And we fight in Parliament to keep the good

things about the European Union. At the end of it, when we know what the

government has succeeded in negotiating or not, we want the

public to have a verdict on whether they accept that or whether we go

back. A 2-stage process. We are very clear about what we are sticking.

That's another referendum? It wouldn't be another referendum, but

it wouldn't be a rerun of the last one. What we do feel is that at the

end of this process, see what the government has produced. It is

possible they can produce a decent outcome, but it doesn't look like

it. If we have a bad settlement or none at all in the public should

have the choice of what we call an exit from Brexit and it should be

one of the options available. Can I ask you something? Speaking to you

now, and I've interviewed you many times because you've been in

politics for a long time, and in a way is that part of the problem?

Seeing you now, speaking as a leader of the Liberal Democrats, people are

possibly thinking, well, that's what politics was like quite a long time

ago, instead of being something new and refreshing? Novelty for its own

sake seems to have little merit. I mean, I have actually just fought my

way back into Parliament, having lost. I've been out for two years

and I've had a chance to reflect. I could have just disappeared and gone

off and written books, which is what I've been doing, but actually the

state of the country is now sufficiently critical that people

like myself, who have got experience, as well as ambition for

the future, have got to pitch in and be very much at the centre of public

wealth and that's the spirit I come back in. If you look at politics

now, and you are very experienced, if you look at the great success

stories of politics, like Emmanuel Macron in France, who is brand-new,

completely new to politics... To most people, and you look at Donald

Trump who has never been elected before, that's a different style,

people might say Jeremy Corbyn, written off, and it's a whole new

thing. I'm not clear what the new thing that Sir Vince Cable brings to

the Liberal Democrats is. Jeremy Corbyn and Donald Trump are of my

generation. I wasn't making an issue around age. You started with

Emmanuel Macron. He was my opposite number in the French government when

I was Secretary of State for business and we talked often. We had

a very similar approach. His basic message to the French people who

were very tired and disillusioned by the traditional right and the

traditional left, is that you need something else, which is moderate,

middle of the road, certainly for reform, and that's exactly the

formula that me and my party can offer and it is different from the

Tory party or the Labour Party, just as Emmanuel Macron is offering in

France. Thank you very much for your time this morning. Time to talk to

Carol, who is at Buckingham Palace, lending in beautifully with the

roses! Good morning. Good morning. Thanks. Look at the

roses. The roses at Buckingham Palace are stunning. Each bed had

its -- has its own colours. The fragrance is beautiful. A -- and the

weather isn't shabby in London. A bit chilly if you are just stepping

out but it will warm up nicely later. It isn't like this

everywhere. For the west today it is wet and windy, especially across

Wales and south-west England. There will be squally winds around the

rain. At the moment we have showers. But those showers will be replaced

by rain later and you can see at extending through Wales, into

Northern Ireland, just fringing in the south-west Scotland. Ahead of

this the low pressure has the cloud building, but we should stay dry in

east and north. Sunshiny northern and eastern Scotland this afternoon.

Rain coming in the south-west and cloud building ahead of it.

Northwest England sees a couple of showers, north-west England should

stay dry. Further south into east Anglia, Essex, Kent, around London,

again hanging onto dry conditions, with cloud building towards the Isle

of Wight. We are likely to see showers here as well. The south-west

has heavy rain, extending through Wales. Gusty winds around that. You

can see how it is moving away from Cornwall and west Wales in the

afternoon, nonetheless there will be showers and pretty windy as well.

For Northern Ireland, the rain is moving away to the cause of this

morning. It dries up and brightens up and we have sunshine. We can't

rule out showers through the afternoon. Through the evening and

overnight that will slowly moved eastwards. Ahead of it it will be

dry and just behind it will be dry. In the middle of the night we have

showers coming in. Some of them will be thundery, with hail. Not as bad

as it was earlier this week, but again you will notice them. So we

start with those showers tomorrow and in fact tomorrow for many of us

it will be at day of sunshine and showers. The weather front getting

into the east, clearing and eastern England, hanging around the

north-east and a lot of weddings take place today. You might be

lucky! If you are in the sunshine it will feel quite pleasant. For

Sunday, you can see the rain on the chart in eastern parts of Scotland,

that will break up and fragment through the day. Then on Sunday a

game it's a day of sunshine and showers, with not all of us catching

a shower. If anything it will brighten up from the west as we go

through the day. Drier for example in Northern Ireland. Over the next

few days temperatures will be lovely where they should be -- roughly. The

reason I am here this morning is because tomorrow the state rooms

open for the summer exhibition. This year it is looking at gifts

presented to Her Majesty the queen during the course of her rain.

There's also a room dedicated to Diana, of Wales, and we had the

privilege of visiting it yesterday for a preview.

20 years on, a tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales, to commemorate

Diana, Princess of Wales, was well-known for her

You can see her actual ballet shoes behind me.

She used to hang those on her sitting-room door.

Next to them we have this magnificent writing desk,

which she would have replied to correspondence.

Lots of artefacts on top of it, we have picture frames with pictures

the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry, who selected most

Two of the pieces on display are the Princess's tucker boxes,

part of the traditional boarding school kit that she would have

And they would have been full of sweets.

Full of sweets? It's enormous!

And on the right-hand side is her collection of casettes,

including classical music such as Pavarotti and popular music such

Gifts given to Diana also take pride of place.

A leather briefcase wedding present and a present from President Reagan.

And in the next room something a little different.
