There are reports of a shooting incident inside New York. A man | :00:00. | :00:21. | |
dressed as a doctor opened fire at the Bronx Lebanon on hospital. The | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
Council leader responsible for Grenfell Tower in London where 80 | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
people died in a fire has resigned. Nicholas Paget-Brown's Council was | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
criticised for its response. Germany legalises same-sex unions - | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
bringing it in line with most other European countries - | :00:37. | :00:40. | |

who became a politician has died. Hello and welcome | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
to World News Today. We start the programme with some | :00:54. | :01:12. | |
breaking news coming in from the States. Reports of a shooting | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
incident inside a hospital inside the Bronx in New York. Unarmed man, | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
said to be dressed as a doctor, opened fire at the Bronx Lebanon on | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
hospital, according to reports. This hit is a 972 bed hospital, at least | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
three people are believed to have been shot, although there are | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
reports of multiple shootings and some reports describe this as an | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
ongoing situation. Messages on social media speaking of doctors and | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
nurses having barricaded themselves inside the building and also some | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
reports of a fire in the building. None of this is 100% confirmed. New | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
York Forrest has been briefed on the situation and police are going | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
through from each floor to each floor in search of the gunmen. We | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
will keep you updated on this developing story. | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
The leader of Kensington and Chelsea Council, | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
the borough where the Grenfell Tower fire happened, has resigned. | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
Nicholas Paget-Brown said he had to accept responsibility | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
for his role in response to the fire and in particular for the decision | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
to ban the public and press from a council meeting last night. | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
The BBC has also obtained documents that show that cheaper, | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
less fire-resistant cladding was chosen for the tower block. | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
80 people are believed to have died in the fire and there is no | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
suggestion a deliberate decision was made to cut fire safety. | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
Kensington Chelsea Council says safety would not have been | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
compromised in order to manage budgets. | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Tom Symonds has more. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Were you pressured by Number 10 to resign? | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
The leader of the council criticised for failing to cope | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
with the crisis in his backyard, could not hold on. | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
CHANTING: We want justice, we want justice! | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Last week his council offices were invaded. | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
Last night he couldn't even hold a council meeting. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
In particular my decision to accept legal advice that I should not | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
compromise the public inquiry by having an open discussion | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
in public yesterday has itself become a political story, | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
and it cannot be right that this should have become the focus | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
of attention when so many are dead or still unaccounted for. | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
Investigations by the BBC and the Times newspaper | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
into the decisions made when the council refurbished | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
Grenfell Tower added to the pressure. | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
The big change - the addition of aluminium cladding panels | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
We've been investigating that refurbishment and whether it played | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
a part in the tragedy that was to follow. | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
This development in North London includes cladding made not | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
from aluminium, but zinc. Documents passed to the BBC revealed | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
that the zinc panels were originally proposed for Grenfell. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
In 2012 the architects' designs show this clearly - | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
residents were told it would be zinc. | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
But there was pressure from the council on contractors | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
By 2015 they were given amendments to the original tender and told | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
to fit aluminium composite panel, which is cheaper. | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
So did the change make a difference to fire safety? | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
Well, this panel is similar to the ones eventually used. | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
It's an aluminium sandwich with a plastic filling | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
which is not fire resistant. The original zinc panels | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
were marketed as capable of being able to resist fire. | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Both panels have the same safety rating under European tests. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
So on current evidence, it's not clear the change | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
However, even the fact there was pressure to cut costs has | :04:57. | :05:04. | |
infuriated those affected by the fire. | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
Those affected and the wider community are utterly sick of this | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
lack of value ascribed to human beings who pay their council tax, | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
Meanwhile, cladding from 149 tower blocks has now | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
The whole process has been criticised as pointless because only | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
the cladding is being tested, and not for example | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
Pointless? No, says the testing body. | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
It is critical to do these screening tests, | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
just to see whether there is a risk or not, to see whether the buildings | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
Many of them do, and the question now is what can we do about it, | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
and are there other risks or materials we need to consider? | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
There is an immediate crisis to deal with, | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
an ongoing police investigation, a public inquiry, again today | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
described as too narrow. Grenfell Tower casts a long shadow. | :06:06. | :06:14. | |
We will return to New York, the breaking news that there has been a | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
shooting at a hospital in the Bronx borough of New York. We have a tweet | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
from the Police Commissioner of New York, according to the Reuters news | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
agency, saying the suspect who opened fire at the hospital is dead. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
Just to repeat, this developing situation, the breaking news we | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
started the programme with, the suspect who opened fire at the Bronx | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
Lebanon hospital in New York is dead. That's according to a tweet | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
from the Police Commissioner and that is being reported at the moment | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
on the Reuters news agency. We believe at least three people have | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
been injured but of course, this is a developing situation and we will | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
bring you more details the moment we get confirmation of them. Let's turn | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
to Germany. Germany has legalised same-sex | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
marriage, a move that brings it in line with most other | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
European countries. Members of Parliament | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
voted in favour - after the German Chancellor Angela Merkel | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
changed her position to allow a free vote on gay marriage - | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
though she herself, voted against it. | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
Jenny Hill explains from Berlin. Here, it's called | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
"marriage for all." The new law means | :07:26. | :07:33. | |
same-sex couples will TRANSLATION: It's | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
a historic day for Germany. Today thousands of same-sex | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
partnerships have been The two-class system | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
in love has been abolished. Jubilation too inside | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
the German parliament. The political left | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
has fought for years to bring this legislation, | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
but Angela Merkel has always opposed During this interview she appeared | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
to soften her stance. She'd met, she said, | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
a lesbian couple who'd They inspired a change | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
of heart, and a free vote for Mrs Merkel's Conservative MPs, | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
though she herself TRANSLATION: It's been a long, | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
intense and emotional debate. For me personally too, | :08:22. | :08:31. | |
which is why I hope that today's vote not only brings respect | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
for both sides of the debate, Angela Merkel may have rejected | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
the proposition at the ballot box, but she will go down in history | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
as the Chancellor who introduced By voting against the bill, | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
Mrs Merkel is appealing to the more conservative of her electorate, | :08:49. | :08:58. | |
but by in effect letting it happen she's appeasing potential coalition | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
partners of the future, and she's cementing that | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
reputation as Europe's For now celebrations, | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
though the law may yet be challenged What's widely held as a victory | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
for equal rights is also seen by many here as a political | :09:16. | :09:23. | |
success story too. Social media timelines are full | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
of rainbow colours today as Twitter users celebrate Germany's decision | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
to legalise same-sex marriage. The hashtag "marriage for all" began | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
trending worldwide within hours of the announcement, | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
generating more than 50,000 tweets. One Twitter user posted - "Germany | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
legalized same sex marriage. I am proud of Germany | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
for the first time." Another posted - "I might be crying | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
some happy tears right now, marriage equality in Germany | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
is everything I've It will soon be 24 hours since | :09:59. | :10:18. | |
President Trump's ban on certain people travelling to certain | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
countries came into effect. Critics say it is unconstitutional and | :10:24. | :10:24. | |
racist. This was the response when President | :10:25. | :10:34. | |
Trump first imposed his travel ban, the court struck it down. But now it | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
has been partially provide timely response looks like this. The travel | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
ban is more limited and the protests are smaller. But this is an issue on | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
which America feels deeply. We are in a political climate where Muslims | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
are being targeted by bigoted and is discriminatory laws. If nothing | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
else, it will make a psychological difference, now that we are actually | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
going to do something to prevent terrorists. Most Muslims feel this | :11:04. | :11:11. | |
isn't the best way to promote peace and to stop terrorism, which we all | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
want to do. For the next 90 days, non-US visa holders from six | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
predominantly Muslim countries will be denied entry to the United | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
States. But there are some exceptions. Those with close family | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
members already in America may be admitted but not grandparents or | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
more extended family. Those with US college places or jobs can be | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
admitted as well but the administration is struggling to | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
explain how exactly these rules make America safer. This has been one of | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
the President's top issues. He has talked consistently about how he | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
believes the United States needs to do more to enhance our screening | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
procedures and to take a better look at people who will be coming into | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
the United States. Lawyers are talking to new arrivals at airports | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
around the country to monitor the new arrangements. It will include | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
120 day ban on most refugees from anywhere. We tried to gather | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
information so we can note for future travellers, what to be on the | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
lookout for. If we need to file lawsuits or petitions, we also on | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
hand to do so. The Supreme Court will decide decide on this ban in | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
October and some of the restrictions will by then already have expired. | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
Let's speak to the former President of the American immigration lawyers | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
association, joining us live from Ohio. Even as this ban was finally | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
coming into effect, we had a clarification on the bona fides | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
family members, fiancees were now in this kind of ran. This is a bit of a | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
minefield. Who are these relatives that will be allowed through? The | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
Supreme Court was pretty clear, the Supreme Court says somebody needs to | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
show a bona fides famille yelp relationship. Or a bona fides | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
relationship with an employer. The Trump administration took it on | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
themselves to arbitrarily narrow that definition. As you mentioned | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
earlier, the left out grandparents and they originally left out | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
fiancees. It just goes back to this whole thing. We have never had a | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
President in this country that has tried to ban an entire religion. The | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
lower courts have waded in and said no. The Supreme Court earlier | :13:34. | :13:47. | |
basically said no. They left the core of this travel ban in place the | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
Donald Trump really was the big loser this week in terms of his | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
travel ban. Even though he has got it through, partially, he has got | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
roughly what he wanted, you still think he is the loser in this? Yes, | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
because he didn't get what he wanted, which was to ban all people | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
from six predominantly Muslim countries, all people, including | :14:11. | :14:12. | |
people that have lived and worked tier for years, anyone from these | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
countries. The court said, you can't do this because we know you want to | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
do this based on your hatred of Muslims. Look at what you said | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
during the campaign. The Supreme Court looked at this and said, to | :14:26. | :14:36. | |
have a connection to United States, we can put a temporary pause on | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
that. The rest of Donald Trump's plan is still on hold. That's why I | :14:41. | :14:52. | |
say this was a big loss for him. Would you suggest as some critics | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
say, this is based on racism? Of course it is. It is based on | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
anti-Muslim rhetoric that we heard coming out of this President's mouth | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
for the last two years. One thing that happened in the US courts, | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
Donald Trump as everybody knows, loves to tweet and he will say | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
anything he wants and then denied that he said it and you can save the | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
sky is blue and then say it was raining and he will say, I only said | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
it was raining. But when you go to a US court, as in the UK, you go into | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
a court, you are responsible for your words and the courts held him | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
to his words and they were, he wanted to ban Muslims. He said it | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
over and over again. Then he said, even whether his assistants were | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
saying, this is in a band pause. Donald Trump then tweets, this is a | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
ban. The courts have held him to his word and I think this is really | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
where he is going to have to take some responsibility. We will have to | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
leave it there. David Leopold. Thank you. We will stay with Donald Trump. | :16:02. | :16:10. | |
Staying in the US, and two TV presenters attacked on Twitter | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
by President Donald Trump have accused him of lying | :16:14. | :16:15. | |
and suggested the White House tried to blackmail them. | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
Mika Brezinski and Joe Scarborough, the hosts of MSNBC Morning Joe said | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
they were warned a tabloid would run a negative story on them | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
unless they said sorry for their coverage of Mr Trump. | :16:25. | :16:30. | |

years. He faces stiff competition from some of the world's leading | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
cyclists. I think this is the biggest challenge I have faced in my | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
career. The level of my rivals and of course we racing on, means it | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
will be a much more open race. It will be the biggest challenge for | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
me, for sure. It will be right up there. To win a fourth Tour de | :21:08. | :21:10. | |
France title would be incredible, it would be unreal. I don't want to | :21:11. | :21:22. | |
jinx it but it would just be unreal. UK anti-doping authorities still | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
investigating investigations of wrongdoing against Team Sky and | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
British Cycling for 2012 which both deny. UCI President Brian Cookson | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
says cycling has made significant progress in the battles against | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
doping while he has been in charge. Reputational problems that have been | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
around that team in the last few months have not been helpful. I want | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
to wait, like everyone else, for the outcome of UK anti-doping enquiries | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
and I don't think it is right I should say more than that. Team Sky | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
are no different from any other team. It is not helpful it has taken | :21:57. | :22:08. | |
so long to resolve satisfactory. Coach Andy Farrell says the British | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
and Irish lions need to man up if they are to win the second test in | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
Wellington and remain in the series with New Zealand. The Lions have | :22:16. | :22:26. | |
made three changes. Owen Farrell moves to inside centre. Sam | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
Warburton returns as in side flanker. The tourists have to win | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
this. It is about character this week for us. It is about manning up. | :22:37. | :22:47. | |
Putting everything on the line because it is that situation, isn't | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
it? It is do or die for us. Barcelona have activated the | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
buy-back Clause 4 Gerard Deulofeu who will return on a two year | :22:57. | :23:08. | |
contract. He was on loan at AC Milan. He will cost Barcelona around | :23:09. | :23:16. | |
?10.5 million. Jermain Defoe signed for Bournemouth on Thursday and they | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
have now signed Nathan Ake for a club record fee from Chelsea. Nathan | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Ake had a spell on loan with Eddie Howe's season last season and the | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
fee is reported to be around ?20 million. That is all the sport for | :23:35. | :23:35. | |
now. The respected French politician | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
and Auschwitz survivor who wrote France's abortion laws, | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
has died at the age of 89. Simone Weil was best known | :23:46. | :23:47. | |
for her instrumental role in legalising abortion in the 1970s, | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
and went on to serve as the first President of an elected | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
European Parliament. Her death was confirmed | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
by President Macron, who called her life | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
"an exemplary inspiration". TRANSLATION: Makes me think about | :24:05. | :24:13. | |
the abortion loss. I can't remember which year but it was a really great | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
step forward. We have lost a very special lady. I benefited from her | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
abortion legislation and at the time, that was extraordinary. She | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
was one of the first push for independent women to get involved in | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
politics, despite having suffered enormously but without ever | :24:31. | :24:31. | |
complaining. Earlier I spoke to the Economist | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
bureau chief Sophie Pedder in Paris, about Simone Weil's legacy and how | :24:34. | :24:36. | |
she was a woman ahead of her time. When you look at what she was | :24:37. | :24:47. | |
campaigning for in the 1970s, as health minister, she argued in | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
Parliament for the legalisation of abortion. She was really taking on a | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
very Conservative, male establishment and when you look at | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
her giving a speech in the National Assembly in the French Parliament, | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
she was a woman in front of her own male audience, only nine female | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
deputies at the time, she really wanted to bring France I think, in | :25:08. | :25:12. | |
the modern era and make it a more socially liberal society. It came | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
after the 1968 student uprising when there was a reaction against a much | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
more Conservative culture. She wanted to modernise France in a way | :25:21. | :25:30. | |
that was ahead of her time. Let's go back to our developing story, that | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
breaking story from New York. The New York Police Commissioner says | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
that the gunmen who opened fire at a hospital in the city is now dead. | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
Local media reported that at least three people had been wounded in | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
this attack at the Bronx Lebanon hospital. Reports say the suspect | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
was a current or former employee. A police spokesperson did not specify | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
how many people had been hurt in this incident. The hospital is north | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
of Manhattan. We will continue to monitor that for you for the time | :26:03. | :26:03. | |
being. If you are heading out to the United | :26:04. | :26:15. | |
States or indeed Canada, if you are heading west, you will be greeted | :26:16. | :26:18. | |
with a lot of fine and dry and sunny weather. If heading east, | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
potentially you will be greeted with some thunderstorms and potential | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
rain. Looking at the satellite picture in the last 24 hours, we can | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
see how dry it has been across the west. Heavy rain and thunderstorms | :26:32. | :26:34. | |
have been affecting central and eastern parts of the States and also | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
eastern Canada. For the week in, not looking very different. Humid air | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
from the Gulf of Mexico feeding the thunderstorms. Warm and humid and | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
storms could be pretty violent for Texas, all the way up the eastern | :26:49. | :26:54. | |
Canada. South Asia, some heavy rain. South-west monsoon in full swing and | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
it is pretty much where it should be for the time of year. The north west | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
corner, we have seen some heavy rain in the last couple of days. Could be | :27:03. | :27:10. | |
looking at another four to five millimetres of rain doing the course | :27:11. | :27:13. | |
of the weekend. Likely to be more flooding in places. Europe, we have | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
seen huge contrast in temperature and weather conditions. Central and | :27:20. | :27:22. | |
northern parts have been bombarded with strong winds, heavy rain and | :27:23. | :27:28. | |
thunderstorms. North east Germany has seen torrential downpours to end | :27:29. | :27:31. | |
the working week. These thunderstorms will be moving north | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
and east words into western Russia and the Baltic states. Further | :27:37. | :27:40. | |
south, it is all about the heatwave, particularly across the south east | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
corner. In the Canary Isles, a lot of fine weather, temperatures around | :27:47. | :27:53. | |
28, 30 degrees on Saturday. The Iberian peninsula sees lower | :27:54. | :27:55. | |
temperatures than normal for this time of year. Even a few showers | :27:56. | :28:03. | |
across south eastern Spain. In France, remains quite unsettled but | :28:04. | :28:07. | |
some sunshine and quite pleasant in Nice. A bit cooler of late for | :28:08. | :28:16. | |
Italy. This intense heatwave is producing temperatures over 40 | :28:17. | :28:19. | |
degrees and it will persist during the week. It is the start of next | :28:20. | :28:25. | |
week that the weather front moves into the heatwave and brings | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
temperatures down and spark off some violent thunderstorms. We will keep | :28:29. | :28:34. | |
you updated. At home, this weekend, things looking a little better | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
thanks to high pressure and we should see dry and bright weather. | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
You can see the high pressure nudging in from the south west. In | :28:42. | :28:45. | |
between two weather systems and this will bring increasing amounts of | :28:46. | :28:48. | |
wind and rain to Northern Ireland and Scotland. But some sunshine | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
around. Light winds as well and it will feel quite warm. A full UK | :28:54. | :28:58. | |
