Welcome to the programme with me, Riz Lateef. | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
Nearly three weeks on since the Grenfell tragedy | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
reviewed at many towerblocks across the capital. | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Today, Westminster became the latest council to announce it would install | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
But tonight there are questions as to whether local authorities | :01:35. | :01:43. | |
have the power to force costly fire safety measures like sprinklers | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
and fire doors on leaseholders who have bought their properties. | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
But one expert believes the Grenfell fire should lead | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
Our political editor Tim Donovan reports. | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
This is the fire door that Croydon Council fitted. | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
A dispute over this doorway has proved very costly for Julie. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
This is the council flat that she bought in Croydon. | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
She had installed a plastic-coated front door. | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
The council said that it was a fire risk and danger | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
The council were saying, we need to set a precedent... | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
She claimed that as a leaseholder, she had rights over the front door. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
She ended up paying not just for the front door but ended up | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
I should have been given the opportunity to do it myself, | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
rather than Croydon Council going to the extremes | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
And how they are literally persecuting me for the | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
This is being seen as something of a test case. | :02:43. | :02:54. | |
And in this County Court judgment, the key thing is that the judge | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
decided that in the absence of any clarity in Julie's lease itself | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
that the council did retain responsibility for external features | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
But this has actually proved a rare legal success for a council. | :03:05. | :03:17. | |
Experts say that it is very hard to force leaseholders to accept | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
The vast majority of right to buy leases, in my experience, | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
will not let councils just enter properties to make improvements. | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
To add in whole new fire safety systems that didn't exist before. | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
And I would say probably a bare majority are leases that leave | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
the doors in the control of the leaseholder or, | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
even worse, it is ambiguous as to whose door it is. | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
So there would be no obligation to put in fire doors? | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
Not without a quite expensive and difficult legal dispute to find | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
Despite the fire at Lakanal House, Southwark reported that its hands | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
were tied because of the fact that the council has no right | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
of access to install PPS systems, that's sprinklers, | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
Clearly, there has to be, as I think some of the lessons | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
are emerging from Grenfell - early days, but emerging - | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
are that we can't have different standards of fire safety in some | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
properties within a high-rise building compared | :04:19. | :04:19. | |
There has to be a common approach to fire safety. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
Wandsworth, like Westminster, is now planning to install | :04:24. | :04:24. | |
sprinklers in dozens of tower blocks. | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
But with many leaseholders here, disputes over costs and legal | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
Conservative councils are meeting in Kensington and Chelsea this evening | :04:33. | :04:46. | |
to choose a new leader. It follows the register -- resignation of | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
Nicholas Paget-Brown after criticism of his handling of Vigo end of | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
disaster. Our correspondent has the latest follows. -- for us. | :04:56. | :05:03. | |
We think the meeting is just getting under way. We have seen some | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
councils arriving, here to choose a successor to Nicholas Paget-Brown. | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
He stayed there last Friday with his deputy. We understand there are two | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
candidates that local Conservatives will be choosing from. One is a | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
former Cabinet member, Elizabeth Campbell, but one of the backbench | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
councillors, David Lindsey. The meeting, we think, has just got | :05:29. | :05:43. | |
under way. It will be cheered by the Fulham and Chelsea MP. We want | :05:44. | :05:53. | |
leadership that will deliver a good service to those people affected by | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
the Grenfell fire tragedy and hopefully the cancel under new | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
leadership can move on, take charge of the events, respond well and | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
build from here. Are you sure that they are capable of doing it? Lots | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
of people have said they had been a waste of space although the response | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
the Grenfell and it needs commissions from a site to come in. | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
We have very talented councillors within the group. It is not a | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
decision for me. I am the MP for Chelsea. It will be up to the | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
councils in Kensington and Chelsea, Conservative councillors, to decide | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
your new leader, which is in common with standard practice across the | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
country. What about opposition parties? What do they have to say? | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
It was interesting listening to Greg Hands. He believed that the council | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
should be allowed to carry on but that has not been the view of many | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
families and opposition councillors. I spoke earlier to the leader of the | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
Labour group at Kensington and Chelsea, who said that these people | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
running this council do not deserve another chance. Only downside is to | :07:04. | :07:04. | |
be brought in. It is apparent to everybody | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
that the Conservative administration has never grasped the scale | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
of the problem. And most of them don't seem | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
humble enough to go back to the residents and say, | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
we have made a complete mess of this, we are sorry | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
and we will try to do better. And I really don't think whoever | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
they elect is going to be able Yes, those are the views of the | :07:24. | :07:36. | |
politics of it. We had some more politics in the Commons this | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
afternoon. She amenities Secretary Sajid Javid addressing the key issue | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
of people coming forward to say who was in their flats. We know that | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
some of the flats were sublet, which is of course illegal. Sajid Javid | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
saying in the Commons again today, do come forward, you will not be | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
prosecuted. It is important for victims and families to know who was | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
in those flats and Grenfell Tower. A teenager from west London has been | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
jailed for life for planning a bomb attack that may have targeted | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
an Elton John concert He admitted preparing an act | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
of terrorism after trying to obtain weapons including a suicide bomb | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
and machine guns. Let's cross to the Old Bailey, | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
where our home affairs correspondent This teenager, Haroon Syed, who | :08:20. | :08:32. | |
still lived at home with his parents, was trying to find a fellow | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
jihadi online who could help them get hold of a bomb or possibly | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
weapons to carry out a terrorist attack. However, MI5 managed to get | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
one of its agents to strike up a conversation with him online and | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
that lasted about six months. At one point, the pair met up and he handed | :08:52. | :08:58. | |
over ?150, apparently to go to our bomb maker. We know that he | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
contemplated attacking Oxford Street with annual bomb. -- nail bomb. And | :09:03. | :09:14. | |
he had looked at attacking a concert by Elton John in Hyde Park on | :09:15. | :09:15. | |
September the 11th last year. who's also been convicted | :09:16. | :09:16. | |
of terrorism offences? That is right. He was jailed for | :09:17. | :09:26. | |
life last year for plotting to carry out a Lee Rigby style killing, | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
specifically attacking someone selling poppies around the time of | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
Remembrance Sunday. It was argued in court today that that experience and | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
the dysfunctional trial should -- childhood that led to his | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
radicalisation, it was said that potentially in ten years he could | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
beat the radicalised by the judge showed he was an extreme or | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
dangerous man. -- he could beat the radicalised. | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
A search is under way to find secondary places for 75 pupils | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
after the Government announced it was pulling funding from the UK's | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
The secondary school in Sussex is part of the Durand Academy, | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
which also runs a primary school in south London. | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
While the primary will be taken over, the future of the boarding | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
Here's our education reporter, Marc Ashdown. | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
It was billed as "Eton for the poor". | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
The first free state boarding school. | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
Every week, 75 South London pupils are bussed down here. | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
But it appears its days are numbered. | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
The secondary school is run by Durand Academy Trust, | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
which also has a primary school in Stockwell. | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
For years, questions have been raised over the complex financial | :10:35. | :10:48. | |
arrangements and numerous conflicts of interest | :10:49. | :10:49. | |
After repeated warnings, the Government is finally | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
A notice last week cites the trust's inability or unwillingness | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
to address serious concerns over the financial management | :10:56. | :10:57. | |
After repeated and significant breaches of the funding agreement, | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
they remain fundamental concerns about the governance. | :11:02. | :11:02. | |
Now, the governing body here wrote to parents | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
and carers late last week. I have got the letter here. | :11:05. | :11:16. | |
They say that the school is under attack and they will | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
If the Government does push ahead, what is likely to happen | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
here is that this will be taken over by a successful Academy chain. | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
So the disruption to pupils' education should be minimal. | :11:27. | :11:28. | |
When it comes to the secondary pupils in West Sussex | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
at the boarding school, that is less certain. | :11:32. | :11:33. | |
I have another letter here from Lambeth Council, | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
which was sent to every head teacher in the borough last week. | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
They say that they expect there to be no provision | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
In effect, they are expecting the boarding school to close down. | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
And they are asking head teachers if they have any room to take | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
Yet again, it is the parents and 1000 pupils across three sites | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
Parents are obviously in the dark. We don't know anything. | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
From what you hear, I have spoken to a lot of parents who are worried. | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
Some have gone ahead and take your kids out of the school. | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
We have fulfilled all our financial commitments. | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
Have the Government? Absolutely not. | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
Sir Greg Martin, former executive head, now Chair of Governors, | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
has released a series of 12 videos on the school website answering | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
But it does appear the academy, once hailed by ministers as a future | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
model for all schools, is slowly unravelling. | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
So it's complicated, but can children be | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
Yes, they can. Lambeth, the Council, has a legal duty to provide a place | :12:29. | :12:40. | |
for every child. That is the criticism of the Academy 's model. | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
If it all goes wrong, they have to pick up the pieces. We're entering a | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
12 month transition period for the school. Fox going to find an academy | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
sponsor to take it over. -- talks are ongoing. Things could be drawn | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
out of the school fight it. But the deadline in June 2018 is when the | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
funding will definitely stop. There were warnings here that tens of | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
millions of pounds of taxpayers' money could be at risk. Michael | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
Gove's department at the time played on wholeheartedly with it. No | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
Justine Greening, as Education Secretary, has to on pick a right | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
royal mess. Many people see it as a missed opportunity. It is a shame | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
because it could have been a pioneering project will stop it is a | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
shame for the pupils but one more embarrassment for the government to | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
ponder in this whole sorry affair. Thank you. | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
A teenager has died trying to escape a fire at a block | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
Witnesses say the 17-year-old jumped from a top floor maisonette | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
on St Paul's Way just before six this morning. | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
Fire crews rescued one man from a fourth floor bedroom and two | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
others got out before the emergency services arrived. | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
Dozens of residents who lived in the block were evacuated. | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
The cause of the fire is being investigated. | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
The US President Donald Trump has used social media | :14:01. | :14:02. | |
to offer his support to the parents of the terminally-ill | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
President Trump tweeted saying he would be delighted to help | :14:06. | :14:13. | |
the 10-month-old who has a rare genetic condition and brain damage. | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
But European judges have rejected the pleas | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
from Charlie's parents to take him to the US for treatment. | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
A month on from the London Bridge terror attack, | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
it's emerged that more than 160 people | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
who witnessed it or were affected have turned to a support | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
One south Londoner who was stabbed by the terrorists says doesn't know | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
how he made it out alive or what effect it might | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
On Saturday night one month ago, three men drove a van into | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
pedestrians on London Bridge. They went on to stab others about the | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
market. Eight people lost their lives and almost 50 were injured. | :14:57. | :15:08. | |
Cut my neck and my ear was hanging on a | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
Then there was the stab wounds to the chest. | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
I still didn't know they were terrorists or | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
It is only when they pulled the blade out and | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
started talking about Allah, Islam and something about killing their | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
I was trying to fight with him but then he has pulled | :15:28. | :15:44. | |
the other two back that was going into a restaurant, where they were | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
My memory is blank from after the first stabbing. | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
But then three of them came and started attacking me and I | :15:52. | :15:53. | |
Roy says that he is feeling better and his | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
But others are still dealing with the emotional | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
One charity says it has helped more than 160 people that witnessed or | :16:01. | :16:09. | |
have been touched by the attack. The key thing is not to bottle it up | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
because there is a danger that by doing that it will actually get | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
worse and we may develop the symptoms that will require more | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
in-depth psychological study. With recent tragedies in the capital, the | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
charity suspects there are many people at the other still needs | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
help. -- many people out there that still need help. | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
Chelsea has come and gone but this week Garden lovers can come and | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
enjoy the show at Hampton Court Palace, where the theme this year is | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
climate change. Join me later in the programme. And I will have you -- | :16:45. | :16:53. | |
the weather from Wimbledon. The covers were on the course today but | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
are many times will they be rolled across the grass this week? | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
The capital's night tube service is to be extended to part | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
of the London Overground, with trains running | :17:04. | :17:04. | |
From December, there'll be a 24-hour service | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
on Fridays and Saturdays between Dalston Junction | :17:11. | :17:11. | |
Here's our transport correspondent, Tom Edwards. | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
Shoreditch, one of the areas that will benefit from 24-hour train | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
Byron is a local musician. He thinks it's great news. | :17:23. | :17:32. | |
One of the things that's kind of grown the south-east and east | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
has been the arts community and stuff like that, | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
and anything that helps that grow is just a good thing. | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
From December, on Fridays and Saturday nights, | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
there will be four trains an hour right through the night | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
The service will extend to Highbury next year. | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
We have been experiencing traffic jams in the middle of the night. | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
There's huge traffic congestion in the evenings | :18:00. | :18:00. | |
It's very important that where possible we do shift people | :18:01. | :18:10. | |
from car traffic into cleaner public transport services. | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
I think if you look around the world, many world cities | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
London, too, has its own night tube service now of course. | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
They are very important for the night-time economy, | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
for people who live in London and people who work in London. | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
According to the mayor, the night tube has already boosted | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
Now there are also calls for licensing restrictions to be eased. | :18:30. | :18:39. | |
We still have a climate where we don't have | :18:40. | :18:41. | |
In some areas people are nervous about granting licences to bars | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
Rashid has had a stall here for two years. | :18:46. | :18:54. | |
He thinks better transport will benefit the area. | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
It makes it more attractive and busier, for sure. | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
And this will not be the last service to run through the night. | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
Transport for London says it's already looking to introduce | :19:08. | :19:09. | |
It is a sign of summer when we talk about Wimbledon. | :19:10. | :19:22. | |
There may be much excitement in SW19 as Wimbledon | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
fortnight gets underway - a chance to enjoy some great tennis | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
and an opportunity to encourage the next generation of Murrays | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
But over in Surrey, there's criticism of | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
to use public courts which were previously free. | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
And it is a lovely day for it? Absolutely beautiful. Thousands of | :19:37. | :19:49. | |
tennis fans at FW 19 looking forward to a fortnight of fabulous tennis at | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
these championships. Millions more watching around the world. As you | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
would expect, it might inspire many of us to dust off a racket and head | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
to the local courts for the game. Perhaps not the best time for | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
Ambridge Borough Council to introduce charges courts that were | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
previously free. They claim that funds will help to maintain them but | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
as I have found out, it has put local | :20:13. | :20:13. | |
residents off. The perfect weather for tennis, but on Sunday afternoon, | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
three of the four Courts on this weighbridge Park when empty. I would | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
expect these courts on this kind of data be really busy with people. It | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
is so sad to see these courts empty. It pulls at the heartstrings. It is | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
a similar situation in nearby parks as well. | :20:33. | :20:44. | |
What has changed is that the Borough Council has introduced a new pay and | :20:45. | :20:52. | |
book scheme. They say that the future cuts to local funding, making | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
the decision to charge for courts is not easy but the money will go some | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
way to maintaining them. But it will go resident has called on people to | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
sign a petition to make at least some of the courts free again. | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
Surely there can be a compromise we can come to with the council which | :21:09. | :21:16. | |
means that we have courts available for no cost that adults can come and | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
play good tennis on. She has support from some big names. | :21:20. | :21:29. | |
Meanwhile, a father and son who wanted free time on the courts | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
instead had to leave disappointed. We regularly come to this park and | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
play tennis, basketball, football. So I was really surprised and the | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
same with my son. He asked why we can't play and I had to explain to | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
him again that we need to be more money. The LTA, who implemented | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
similar schemes elsewhere, and the local council, believe that this | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
will ultimately lead to more participation. Early indication | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
shows that people here might need more persuading. | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
I mentioned that petition that has been started and it has been signed | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
by over 1200 people calling for the return of more free courts. She also | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
has a meeting with council members that the LTA will be at tomorrow. I | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
am sure she is hoping for a positive response. Indeed. Emma, from | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
Wimbledon, thank you very much. We will have more later. | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
It's one of the biggest events in the horticultural calendar - | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
when the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show takes over the historic grounds | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
It opens to the public tomorrow but Alice Bhandhukravi | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
Hello, Alice. If Chelsea Flower Show is compact | :22:35. | :22:45. | |
and centrally located, this is quite the opposite. It is the largest of | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
its kind in the world and the theme this year is climate change. One of | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
the standout gardens, and they say garden, it is something of an | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
installation, is a garden called The Elements Of Life, which aims to take | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
us on the ground and think about soil composition. The soil is on a | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
glass cube of water and I spoke to the designer, who said what is | :23:11. | :23:11. | |
underground is often ignored. The main focus today is on the | :23:12. | :23:21. | |
beautiful flowers, plants etc. But if we have not got the right soil in | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
the ground, it will not happen. It will grow for a while and then | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
probably with R We always have this same. Don't put a ?15 plant in | :23:31. | :23:46. | |
a 15 pencil. -- 15p hole. That is what we're to educate people. | :23:47. | :23:49. | |
This is a standout garden, the London Glades, and it is designed to | :23:50. | :23:57. | |
be a city garden. We can seek to its designer, John Davies. | :23:58. | :23:59. | |
Congratulations, because you won a gold medal today? We're really | :24:00. | :24:06. | |
excited and happy. First time and we are blown away. It is supposed to be | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
a city garden. Explain how it is possible that something as wild as | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
this could fit in London. It is designed for an urban space. We are | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
trying to bring nature back to the city. This is an edible forest | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
garden. It is a system where you can bring things into the environment. | :24:24. | :24:37. | |
What is edible? We have edible fern. Beautiful herbs and lots of mint. | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
Posner added. Beautiful edible flowers at the top. In an ideal | :24:43. | :24:50. | |
world, everything would look as beautiful as this but it is not | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
always like this? We are looking to relinquish control a bit, to let it | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
be more and enjoy the beauty of wildness in the city. Thank you so | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
much for joining us. You can enjoy the wildness of this flower show and | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
the rest -- for the rest of the week. Thank you very much. | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
Let's go back to Wimbledon and this time to Wendy. | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
Quite right. A lot of spectators behind me on Henman Hill or Murray | :25:17. | :25:29. | |
mound. Basking on the evening sunshine and watching the action on | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
Centre Court. Some beautiful flowers that will meet somewhat after such a | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
warm day. We had a little bit of water. The covers went on at 2:30 | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
p:m.. They were not just fleeting showers. Through the rest of this | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
evening, get more sunshine to enjoy. However, through tonight, we will | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
start to see more cloud spilling through. If you get and pieces of | :25:50. | :25:55. | |
clear sky. It will be increasingly muggy through the next few days. | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
Temperatures tonight in central London down to around 16 Celsius. | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
Outside, across the Home Counties, had 11-13dC. Much like this morning, | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
tomorrow morning, there will be plenty of cloud around first thing. | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
Slowly and steadily, there will be some breaks in a cloud in the think | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
the best of the moral's sunshine will be late afternoon and into the | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
evening once again. If Ning, -- anything, tomorrow will be a bit | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
warmer. We will probably get 2526 again through the day tomorrow with | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
a small risk of a shower but it is must be dry. -- 25 or 26. It is a | :26:31. | :26:38. | |
very fine day on Wednesday, temperatures could reach 20 Celsius. | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
It will be among the night into Thursday. Much more chance of | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
showers on Thursday. Maybe the Centre Court ripple beyond. Hit and | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
miss but some will be heavy. It will be a muggy day is temperatures again | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
Ireland 26 Celsius. It looks like the warm weather will continue into | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
Friday. We could still get 27 Celsius in the best of the sunshine. | :27:00. | :27:02. | |
The heat continues into the weekend as well. But, for now, I would say | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
it is perfect weather for tennis. Absolutely. Fingers crossed. | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
The care system in Jersey has been severely criticised | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
in an independent report on historical child abuse. | :27:18. | :27:19. | |
It warns some young people could still be at risk. | :27:20. | :27:24. | |
And the Government's making clear its position on its public | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
despite several Cabinet ministers calling for it to be abandoned | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
More from me later during the ten o'clock news. | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
So from all of us on the team, thanks for watching | :27:38. | :28:15. | |
Discover a new planet, close to home. | :28:16. | :28:17. |
