Transcripts For BBCNEWS Breakfast 20240702

good morning. for england and wales we are looking at rain at times, some hill snow that even some of that getting to lower levels at times. and the risk of ice. the scotland and northern ireland, some wintry showers, drierand scotland and northern ireland, some wintry showers, drier and brighter in the west, but wherever you are it will be blustery and cold. i will have all the details later. it's monday the 4th of december. our main story. israel says its ground offensive has now expanded to every part of the gaza strip following days of intense bombardment. the united nations says palestinians are being squeezed into a corner of the territory — worsening the already dire humanitarian conditions. yolande knell has this report. ominous warnings — the israeli flairs that hang in the night sky over gaza are followed by the thuds of explosions. rumbling explosion. and on the ground, israel's military says its offensive has now expanded to every part of the palestinian territory. it said its operations here will be of no less strength than those that have devastated the north. explosions, shouting. israel's already ordered more evacuations in the south of gaza, crowded with displaced people who were told to move here for their safety. a un official on the spot told the bbc that palestinians are running out of places to go. hundreds of thousands of people on the move, probably for the third orfourth time. some cannot because there's not enough transport to move them. many are well aware that they are moving to a place with no water, no shelter. it's cold, starting to rain. no... no sanitation. memories of a truce have faded fast, with a return to these all—too—familiar scenes of frantic searches in the rubble left by israeli air strikes. in khan younis, civilian casualties are overwhelming the local hospitals. israel says it will now carry on fighting here until its goals are met. one is to remove hamas from power. while hamas says it will only talk about releasing further israeli hostages it holds if that's tied to a permanent ceasefire. meanwhile, this war — now nearly two months old — continues to take a terrible toll. meanwhile a british—owned ship was one of three vessels hit by missiles in the red sea by iranian—backed rebels on sunday in what us central command said represented a "direct threat" to maritime security. let's get more on this now with yolande, who's injerusalem. yolande, with yolande, who's injerusalem. good morning. \ know yolande, good morning. what do we know about these attacks?— know about these attacks? yeah, i mean, know about these attacks? yeah, i mean. these _ know about these attacks? yeah, i mean, these attacks _ know about these attacks? yeah, i mean, these attacks have - know about these attacks? yeah, i mean, these attacks have really i mean, these attacks have really heightened fears of the conflict sort of spreading more widely, something we have raised repeatedly over the past few weeks. but these were missiles fired by yemen's hoof it revels, it seems, and they hit three commercial vessels and americans have said that one of their warships was responding to a distress call and also shut down, it says, three drones in self defence. a serious escalation we are seeing in the red sea. the houthis have claimed at least two of the attacks and say it was in response to what is happening in gaza, basically, and they claimed the ships were linked to israel. the israeli military has come out saying that is completely not the case. and we have had other maritime attacks linked to the war thatis maritime attacks linked to the war that is going on, but really this is the most dramatic one we have seen so far. the us is now saying it will consider all appropriate responses, that this is actually a big threat to international commerce and maritime security.— to international commerce and maritime security. yolande knell, thank yom _ maritime security. yolande knell, thank you. yolande _ maritime security. yolande knell, thank you. yolande in _ maritime security. yolande knell, thank you. yolande in jerusalem. | maritime security. yolande knell, - thank you. yolande in jerusalem. the thank you. yolande injerusalem. the rest of the news, it is over tojon. thank you. british lawyers could be stationed in rwandan courts as part of a treaty designed to get the policy of sending some asylum seekers to the african country off the ground. a deal is expected to be announced in the coming days. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman. it has chopped and changed and been checked, this rwandan plan. will this aspect of it be enough to satisfy the critics, do you think? well, that is a whole other question. the first thing the government needs to get is something that satisfies the rwandan government, and that is what it seems to be that they are making some progress on now. we are told that this treaty that the government has been discussing with their rwandan counterparts since the supreme court ruling a few weeks ago said that as it stands the rwanda policy is not legal. we are told that treaty could signed within days, and one of the crucial aspects which might have unlocked those negotiations is the uk government are suggesting it would send government lawyers to rwanda to help rwandanjudges make government lawyers to rwanda to help rwandan judges make decisions government lawyers to rwanda to help rwandanjudges make decisions on asylum claims, and that is important because one of the key reasons that the supreme court ruled against the plan as it stands was it said basically it didn't have confidence in that rwandan legal system to make fair decisions which did not leave asylum seekers at risk of being transferred out of rwanda to other countries. if rishi sunak can get this treaty agreed with rwandan government this week, i think that would reassure conservative mps who are very anxious about how he has handled the issue of migration. but of course that is just illegal migration. there's also the question of legal migration, which also lots of legal migration, which also lots of conservative mps are very uneasy about. last week we saw figures showing the number of legal migrations and net migrant numbers more than trebled since brexit. again there, i am told, we can expect a movement within a few days. whether what rishi sunak potentially is edging towards will satisfy some of his conservative mps, because his party is very split on this, i don't know, but i think we might see rishi sunak tipping his hand on that internal debate that has been raging internal debate that has been raging in his party. so i think lots to come this week on migration, both illegal and legal. ok. come this week on migration, both illegal and legal.— illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for now, illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for now. thank— illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for now, thank you _ illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for now, thank you very _ illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for now, thank you very much - illegal and legal. 0k, henry, for. now, thank you very much indeed. parts of the uk could be facing "ice rink monday" today — after the weekend's snow froze overnight, the rac has warned. the met office has issued yellow weather warnings for ice for much of the north of england. there are separate warnings of snow in higher parts of wales and the peak district, as well as for both snow and ice in eastern scotland. a friend who rang me at lunchtime yesterday said he couldn't get home and said, "can i come round to your house for lunch? " so he came at 12:00 yesterday, and he left at 10:00 this morning! he stayed with us last night. there was lots of people stuck and people putting people up and...just doing what we can to help. sir keir starmer is to warn there'd be no big increase in government spending under a future labour government — saying ministers would face "huge constraints" because of high debt and inflation. he'll say the economic backdrop now is worse than in the aftermath of the financial crisis in 2008. he's due to give a speech at the launch of a report by the resolution foundation thinktank, which claims prosperity in the uk has fallen substantially behind that of comparable countries. the government is facing a possible defeat in the commons later today, after dozens of conservative mps supported calls for a new body to be set up to compensate victims of the infected blood scandal of the 19705 and �*80s. it's thought 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv and hepatitis c after being given a blood transfusion or treatment for the blood disorder haemophilia. a couple unwittingly lived with an unexploded bomb in their garden for more than four decades because they assumed it was a garden ornament. sian and jeffrey edwards from milford haven, thought it was a "dummy" bomb with no charge. it's now been detonated by a bomb—disposal team. you might remember last week we told you about the uk's only two giant pandas getting ready to leave edinburgh zoo, where they've lived for the last 12 years. well, today yang guang and tian tian are heading back to china. here's our scotland correspondent alexandra mackenzie. a final farewell. edinburgh zoo has been home to the pandas for more than a decade. at the weekend, staff helped them to acclimatise to these crates, which will be used to help transport the animals back to china. staff at the zoo became attached to the giant pandas and their very different personalities, and say their departure will be emotional. some have looked after them since they arrived, and will travel with them on their return plane journey. there's been ups and downs, there's been stressful times over the past 12 years, but we've all taken to it in very good spirits. we've all had a great time doing it. i think it'll be such a change to our lives, to our day without them being here, and it will definitely be sad and definitely some getting used to kind of fitting into what our new normal is without them being here. while in scotland, there were eight attempts at artificial insemination between the pair, but yang guang and tian tian return home having failed to produce a cub. staff say they will be closely monitored while aboard the plane. during the flight, i'm not expecting to have major challenges. yang guang and tian tian are healthy, so my plan is to feed them plenty of bamboo throughout the flight. i will monitor them very closely, of course, and they will also have one of their favourite keepers with them, so they should be happy. the official handover of the two pandas will take place halfway between scotland and china. a zookeeper will hand over the keys to the crates, officially ending their time at edinburgh zoo. alexandra mackenzie, bbc news. you have a lot of questions. i am feelin: you have a lot of questions. i am feeling rather _ you have a lot of questions. i am feeling rather sad _ you

what we are looking at is a real mixture of weather. rain, snow, blustery winds and it will feel cold. there will be and it will feel cold. there will be a wind chill around today. low pressure is dominating our weather, producing all this rain across england and wales. some hill snow across north wales, the pennines and the cumbrian fells at times, some of the cumbrian fells at times, some of the heavier bursts will get to lower levels. with we have a second system coming from southwest, producing rain later across the midlands, pushing out of the south—west. we could see some snow across the welsh marches. blustery it wherever you are, the strongest winds around the south—west and the channel islands. 50 to 55 mph gusts. for scotland as northern ireland, we start with some wintry showers, but as we go through the day we will see more snow coming in across the southern uplands, the brightest conditions will be out towards the west. some snow on the tops of the hills in northern ireland and first thing this morning to watch out for ice on untreated surfaces. as we head through the evening and overnight, the low pressure bringing all this rain and snow will continue to drift further northwards. there will still be snow in it from the hills of southern scotland, for example, and to the north, under clear skies, scotland, for example, and to the north, under clearskies, it will scotland, for example, and to the north, under clear skies, it will be a cold night. where we have lying snow, temperatures could fall away to -71 -8. a snow, temperatures could fall away to —71 —8. a frosty start to the day in scotland as northern ireland, once again with the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. further south, it is not as cold temperatures of 4 or 5, you will notice that if you are hanging around waiting for public transport first thing in the morning. as we head through tuesday, you can see how the low pressure starts to pull away to the near continent. still a lot of cloud behind it, showery outbreaks of rain. out the west, drier and brighter but once again it will feel cold wherever you are. towards the end of the week it turns milder, better and windier. said with a smile. thank you very much. see you later. almost three million smart meters in england, scotland and wales still aren't working properly, according to latest figures from the department for energy. ben's been taking a look at this and the ongoing impact it's having on customers. we looked at this early in the year and with this latest update we found things haven't got much better in terms of the number of smart meters that are just not working properly. let me explain in detail. yes, having a faulty smart meter can cause problems with your energy bill, meaning you could end up paying too much or too little for your gas and electricity. a smart meter sends your meter readings to your energy supplier automatically. so, in principle, your bills should be more accurate than lets say when you submit your own meter readings manually, and you should never get an estimated bill. as it stands, over 33 million have been fitted. that's 58% of all homes and businesses in britain have one installed. and the government's target is to have smart meters in 80% of homes by the end of 2025. saying this is crucial to making homes more energy—efficient. the rollout�*s not all been plain sailing, though. latest figures show almost three million still aren't working properly, and that's leading to customers being charged the wrong amount for their energy bills. it's something that's happened to paula and sharlene. our business correspondent marc ashdown has more on their story and the things you need to look out for. mum—of—two paula lives in east yorkshire. she says she's had problems with her smart meter pretty much from day one. there were constant issues with the readings, which led to her being told she was nearly £1,000 in debt. her supplier, edf, twice took lump sums out of her bank account — she says without warning. it was on a friday and it was the weekend. so i couldn't, like, get food, petrol, nothing, because they'd completely cleared my account out. so they then refunded that — so it was an error, so they refunded it twice and put it back into my account on the monday. but one of the times, it took seven days — so that's a whole week with, like, no money. £200 a month for a very, very small house, when over last winter i never put the heating on once so we were absolutely freezing. i didn't dare put it on. edf has apologised, and acknowledged it fell short in finding a solution for paula. it said it had made various attempts to fix the issues, which have so far been unsuccessful. sharlene is also an edf customer. she actually asked for a smart meter, as a high—energy household — she has 11 children. at first it worked ok, helping her budget her energy use — but both her gas and electricity smart meters then developed problems. her direct debit payments were suddenly recalculated from £200 a month to just £2 a month, leaving her completely in the dark as to how much energy the family was using. i've been able to do absolutely nothing at all. we've been helpless, completely and utterly helpless through it all. initially, i could take manual reads, which was giving me some idea of what i was using, but then all the screens on my smart meters have just stopped working altogether now. again, edf has apologised and said it has booked another appointment with sharlene to try to fix the problem. the charity citizens advice is concerned about the number of people having problems with their smart meters. there are three things which need to be working properly. there's the actual meter itself — on the wall - or maybe in the cupboard. then there's the in—home display that you get given when you get a new smart meter, i although more people will now use an app to understand what they're using. l then there's the communication between the smart meter itselfl and the central system, | which collects the meter readings and gives them to your energy supplier. | if any one of those three things isn't working, then people - won't have the information that they need. _ both the regulator — ofgem — and uk energy, the trade association, said the onus is on energy companies to look into smart—meter issues quickly, and put billing errors right as soon as possible. they stress that people can still fall back on manual readings, but urged anyone with an unresolved issue to contact the ombudsman for help. marc ashdown, bbc news. some useful advice, there. there are various things you can do if you're struggling to pay your energy bill. check your direct debit. your monthly payment is based on your estimated energy use for the year. your supplier can reduce your bill if your actual usage is less than the estimation. try to pay what you can. if you can't meet your direct debit or quarterly payments, ask your supplier for an "able—to—pay plan" based on what you can afford. and remember to claim the benefits you're entitled to. there are many more tips like that and details with on our cost of living: tackling it together page online. just search for that on the bbc news website. we want to hear from you this morning. have you experienced something similar to paula and sharlene? do get in touch with us. you can send us a message on whatsapp, by email, and on twitter as well. thank you. a big issue affecting a lot of people. thank you. a big issue affecting a lot of maple-— thank you. a big

moment the historic cooling towers at fiddlers ferry in merseyside were demolished drew quite a crowd — u nfortu nately heavy fog meant spectators didn't get to see a thing. people gathered in the surrounding fields, and more than 1,500 tuned in to a live stream event — but only got to hear loud bangs, as phil cunliffe reports. two, one... icons of the coal age... ..fire now. ..they�*ve been part of the landscape since 1971. each weighing 100,000 tonnes, it tookjust seconds to bring them crashing down. six months of planning complete, 12,000 holes drilled and filled with high explosives. hundreds had braced the cold to watch on from behind the cordon. the forecast had been promising — but, come the day, this was the view for many. explosion. at least we got to hear the explosions — through the freezing fog. we heard the rumbling, so we know — we know it definitely happened but we couldn't see anything! it was very loud, but it was a great experience. it was nice to be part of it - and to hearthe big, big bang. my brother used to play football outside the towers every saturday morning, and lots of people who we knew, you know, worked there. so, yeah, it's a big change. so the last formal demolition i saw was 1973 — fred dibnah and a chimney somewhere in bolton. so that was more impressive than this — it lasted longer. the four remaining cooling towers will be blown down at a later date — but who'll get to push the button? people have had a bit of an affinity with fiddlers ferry, you know, so it'll be good to have perhaps a resident or someone local to do that for the next project. the day was a triumph for the o'connor family. dad peter oversaw the demolition, his sons grateful that things went well after an intense week. how will he feel now, do you think, that it's all over? happy! or... er...proud! er... flabbergasted! phil cunliffe, bbc news. brilliant. flabbergasted. they are flabbergasted, _ brilliant. flabbergasted. they are flabbergasted, as _

the sunday telegraph, in which he credited margaret thatcher with bringing about "meaningful change" during her time as prime minister. sir keir later defended the piece, telling the bbc he'd wanted to stress her "sense of purpose" — but it didn't mean he agreed with her. several of today's papers feature stories on the bbc licence fee — including the daily telegraph — which quotes rishi sunak as saying the corporation has to be "realistic" about what the public can afford. and many of the papers have photographs of baroness kinnock, who died yesterday at the age of 79. herfamily said she'd been suffering from alzheimer's. the times includes a tribute from the labour leader sir keir starmer describing her as "a pioneer". and here's a picture that'll make you want to want to stay inside today. take a look at this wintry scene outside the beach huts at blyth in northumberland this weekend. and it sounds like there's more to come as the met office has issued a yellow warning for ice across much of northern england, the midlands and northern wales until midday. maybe not a day to go to the beach. i think not, but that is a cracking shot. absolutely lovely. if you have any pictures of the snow and ice that you have been enjoying or enduring over the last couple of days, do send them in. i am sure carol would love to see them. thank you very much. 2a minutes past six. if you're a regular breakfast viewer, you might remember bill and his wifejo, who we followed last year afterjo was diagnosed with alzheimer's. sadly, jo died injanuary, just weeks after moving into a care home. bill wanted to highlight the sometimes devastating and heartbreaking struggles faced by those living with dementia — and the loved ones who take care of them. tim muffett reports now on bill and jo's story. mwah! i love you to bits, don't i? i love you to bits. up, stand up. help me... this is a story of devotion and dedication. you're doing really good. and the exhaustion, frustration... ..and sadness of alzheimer's. he sobs. it's devastatingly hard, watching the woman that you love starting to disappear from your life. drjo wilson trained as a nurse. she went on to become a hugely successful businesswoman. she was darned good at what she did, and had an international reputation. i'lljust put it over your head. last year, her husband, bill, invited the bbc to film the struggles they faced. as jo's alzheimer's tightened its grip. 0k? that nice and comfy? as they showed, with alzheimer's, everything gets harder. wait. jo! jo, hang on. jo, this way. i'm not going shopping at all. i'm going home. don't walk away. if you had jo back for a moment — a lucid moment — what would you say to her, bill? "i love you." he weeps. nothing else. having wanted jo to carry on living at home, bill eventually realised that was no longer possible. but the cost and bureaucracy of getting a residential care home place were both huge challenges. bill, we're ready when you're ready. 0k. when they finally got the go—ahead, it was bittersweet. i've kind of built up to this moment, but when someone says it out loud, i'm...devastated. special girl. earlier this year, just a week after moving into a residential home, jo became gravely ill. if you're ready to go... ..let go. cos i'll be ok. jo wilson died, aged 69, injanuary. bill held her hand as she passed away. bill remembering jo, and he is coming in later to explain why he wanted that to be filmed and what he wanted that to be filmed and what he wanted us to see it and understand it because he is passionate about spreading the message. christmas is a difficult time _ spreading the message. christmas is a difficult time for _ spreading the message. christmas is a difficult time for those _ spreading the message. christmas is a difficult time for those already - a difficult time for those already going through a difficult time. we are talking about that later. if you've been affected by any of the issues raised, you can find organisations offering help and support on the bbc action line website. just search bbc.co.uk/actionline. bill will be here at about 8:10am with someone from the alzheimer's society, as well. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm angie george. the news for london and the east now. growing numbers of children are now living far below the poverty line, leaving social workers and doctors struggling to cope. that's according to research by the charity the childhood trust, which suggests more than 105,000 thousand children in london here are in what's known as deep poverty, where the household income isn't enough to cover the basics. there are calls for more support forfamilies. the government says its providing record cost of living support and increasing benefits. train passengers across the east and in london can expect disruption to services for much of this week due to industrial action. members of the drivers union aslef are staging a series of walk—outs and banning overtime until next weekend. it's in a row over pay and conditions. rail operators are warning customers to expect signicant timetable changes and cancellations. we do have some days where we are having earlier close—downs and later start—ups the next day. so please do head to our website or to national rail enquiries for all of the latest timetable information. please allow extra time for yourjourneys if you can and do expect those train services to be busier than normal. he's been described as one of the uk's queer icons. today, people will come together to say a fond farewell to lgbt activist andrew lumsden. he died last month at the age of 82. he helped to organise the very first pride march and was the founder of the paper gay news. friends and fellow campaigners say he was a trailblazer and will be missed. the centre of london is about to get a bit more christmassy. a giant spruce tree has made the journey from oslo and is soon to be seen in trafalgar square. it's an annual gift from norway as a thanks for britain's support during the second world war. let's take a look at the tubes. there are severe delays on the central line this morning. elsewhere though, services running well so far this morning. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's feeling a little less cold than over the weekend. it's a blustery day and we will see more outbreaks of rain. low pressure very much in charge. it's a blustery, breezy day. you can see these outbreaks of rain, some of those quite heavy. it will be cooler towards northern parts of east anglia — 6 celsius there, further south we are looking at around 8c. overnight, we will see further spells of rain. we start to drag in more of a northerly and that air will feel chilly. temperatures not as low as zero — 3 celsius, but it is going to feel quite cold. a cloudy start tomorrow. we will see further outbreaks of rain. another unsettled day, but gradually it should start to break up a little towards the end of the day. temperature 6—7 celsius, so feeling a little bit chillier. then a cold night as that clears, so we are likely to see a frost as the wind starts to a bit lighter away from any coasts first thing on wednesday morning. so a chilly day for wednesday, but then, progressively, temperatures are getting milder. it stays unsettled through the rest of this week. that's it. i'm back in half an hour. back tojon and sarah. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sarah campbell. if you have a relaxing weekend, somebody didn't because kevin sinfield has been continuing his challenge. he's raising money to support people with motor neurone disease, like his good friend and former rugby team—mate rob burrow. yesterday, he faced the toughest stage of the challenge so far and battled through snow and rain to the finish line. john maguire reports. birmingham, a city with reputedly more miles of canals than venice, and kevin sinfield, a man with more miles under his belt than there are canals in both cities combined. another 27 ahead today — the third out of seven with the extra mile right at the start at the alexandra stadium, home of birmingham's commonwealth games. cheering. keep going! people from the local motor neurone disease community were once again able to run with the team. since his diagnosis, sam perkins has raised more than £250,000 to fund the fight. lynn pritchett lost her husband mel to the disease six years ago. ever since, she's devoted herself to making a difference. it's a very different world now, six years on from when we were diagnosed. a lot more awareness, a lot more support. it's amazing. for families who very sadly will have the devastating diagnosis, what rob and kev are doing — and other members of the community — isjust phenomenal. for people living difficult lives with an uncertain future, this was a morning to celebrate life. it's important to raise awareness. i do everything that i can to raise awareness. the more people that know about motor neurone, the more awareness that people will have, the more money will be raised and the closer we'll get to finding a cure. so that's my goal, at the moment — to raise awareness, which is why i wear bright things to get people talking and then i'll tell them about mnd. i have motor neurone, as well, and my family are here supporting me today. yeah, and how are things, generally? difficult, as they are with the disease. and that's what we're here to do — to spread a bit of awareness about it. so spirits were high first thing. we're here with the cyclists now — martin, darreland phil. guys, tell us, what's your job — safety, morale, just keeping pace setting, keeping things going? everything. just keeping everyond going, keep everyone smiling and keeping everyone on track, keeping the lads fed and watered. we've got drinks on our bikes, food on our bikes and playing music as we go and just bringing some good times and cheer along the way. darrel, you get a lot from the crowd, don't you? oh, god, amazing. yeah, i think that helps. i think there are some lonely parts where there's nobody out, but when they come out, they definitely give us a push. it's amazing. i think the amount of people that's putting the money, their hand in their pocket and we are collecting that, it's absolutely amazing. so that's what keeps us going, as well, yeah. phil, there's a bit of banter, isn't there, between the whole team? yeah, yeah. we keep their spirits up and try- and take their mind off the running and have a laugh and a joke. us three are responsible . for the navigating, as well. that explains a lot. well, yeah, it does. we get in trouble because we tend to take a few wrong turns - here and there, but we get them back on track pretty quick. _ that's the extra mile, so it's all good. - extra extra mile. yeah. kev's not happy, but we get it done. but the cold, the wet, the mid—challenge lull was taking its toll. this was a tough day to be running the third arduous ultramarathon in three days. support along the route was, as always, greatly appreciated. but kev, chris and dave all seem to be lonely. at long last, though, after almost four hours of pounding the pavements and roads, chilled to the bones, birmingham's centenary square was in sight. i reckon that goes in the cold, hard, miserable column, right? yeah, very much so. ithink, you know, probably about 35k and then started to come alive a little bit. i think the training side certainly helped. you know, it's a tough old day, that, a tough day. like, day three, two. we had a great send—off and then it was a tough day. a lot of hills, wet, cold, miserable, but the people we saw on the route have been brilliant again. and then to finish with this. people are christmas shopping and it's chuckking it down, and it's chucking it down, but they've come here for us and they've come here for the mnd community, to show how much they matter and how much they care about them and it's brilliant. former rugby player carl hogg joined the team for the day. a great friend of doddie weir, he says one year on from his death with mnd, his legacy lives on through days like these. it's pretty wet and miserable. but, you know, it's12 months ago since we lost doddie — a week past sunday. and itjust puts everything in perspective that people still care. you know, there's still a massive, thriving mnd community and guys like kevjust keep the challenge going, rolling forward. completing the run didn't mean the day was over. there was also the six—hour journey aboard the rob burrow bus to edinburgh. a chance then to decompress, or, for the runners' aching legs, the chance to compress. john maguire, bbc news, birmingham. it isa it is a great effort. it is not often you hear kevin saying it was hard going so it really was. we will check in with him and the crew later in the programme. good morning. ronnie o'sullivan has won again. it is like watching a genius at times. he said he had been stinking the place out at times, how hard it is. the youngest winner at the age of 17. he won his first and before his 48th birthday a record extending eighth. astonishing what he has been able to do and we know the difficulties throughout his career. tomorrow ronnie o'sullivan turns 48. 30 years after his first uk snooker title, he's got another. a record eighth, his 22nd major and he's still world number one. and showing no signs of slowing down, as nick parrott explains. 30 years separate ronnie o'sullivan�*s first major trophy from his latest. back then, he was a fresh—faced 17—year—old. this was an early 48th birthday present for wednesday. i always keep beating myself up because of the age thing. i keep thinking at some point, you know, it's got to stop, i've got to stop winning at some point. but i keep doing all right. so i'll keep going until the wheels fall off. they have almost fallen off a few times. his struggles with depression, alcohol and drugs are well documented. he arrived at york barbican facing a disciplinary hearing for appearing in an exhibition event earlier this season and threatening to quit over the row. after reaching the quarterfinal, he said, "i just can't be bothered any more." but there was no lack of desire as he took on china's ding junhui in the final. the rocket raced into a 4—1 lead. but ding remained calm. he had been here before, losing last year's final. three times he hauled himself back to contention. but this to make it 7—7 provoked the same reaction as poking a bear. it tookjust eight minutes for o'sullivan to roar back into the lead. it finally broke ding's resilience and the inevitable soon followed. what a final, what a contest. ijust had to come out and just have a good head. i thought if i'm going to lose, make ding earn it. a big crowd here, everyone's watching, you know, give them their money's worth. you know, leave blood, sweat and tears on the table. if i don't win, you know, that isjust one of them things, but i came out here and i gave it my all and ijust love competing. as most sports people get older, they start to lose their abilities. but o'sullivan keeps proving that age to him isjust a number. nick parrott, bbc news. manchester city are looking for a record themselves — if they didn't have enough — of four straight premier league tites. no wonder pep guardiola was floored by all the drama yesterday that left him flat on his back. when city thought they'd won it with ten minutes to go, jack grealish tapping in to make it 3—2. but in injury time, dejan kulusevski only went and scored to level things up at 3—3. and as we saw, it was all too much to take for pep. we have seen some great goals of late — this is up there. alexis mac allister for liverpool against fulham. a huge moment. there was more drama to come because fulham were leading heading into injury time, only for two late liverpool goals, including this winner from trent alexander—arnold to seal the win and move them to within touching distance of arsenal at the top. that was seven goals. there were five at stamford bridge and a red card as chelsea held on to beat brighton 3—2 despite being down to 10 men. the games between bournemouth and aston villa and between west ham and crystal palace all ended in draws. a win for celtic, but manager brendan rodgers said he's never been so angry as he was at half—time, with his side trailing to stjohsntone. 1—0 down. they did turn it around with three goals in the second half, so i'm sure he calmed down. matt o'riley�*s strike the pick of them, elsewhere wins for rangers and hibernian. england's cricketers' first match since their dismal world cup campaign ended in another defeat, as the west indies beat them by four wickets in antigua. england might have thought that 326 would have been enough after they batted first, but a brilliant unbeaten 109 by shai hope helped west indies reach their target with seven balls to spare, giving them a 1—0 lead in the three match series. the second game is on wednesday. at 7.30, we're going to be talking about some big changes to come in women's football. its all part of a review. with a number of recommended changes. we'll be looking at what they are and what it could mean for the women's game. hopefully more times like that to come. it was good. as fighting intensifies in israel and gaza, a british—owned ship was one of three vessels hit by missiles in the red sea by iranian—backed rebels on sunday. is it isita is it a sign of trouble spreading in the middle east? us central command said the attacks represented a direct threat to maritime security. let's get more on this now with security correspondent frank gardner. what do we know about the attack on this british ship? it what do we know about the attack on this british ship?— this british ship? it was not

because it was l this british ship? it was not - singled out because it was british but it was singled out by who —— houthi rebels in yemen. some media reports said ownership, possibly it included private israeli citizens. there were three ships attacked with four missiles and drones at the southern end of the red sea and a us navy destroyer shutdown two projectiles but there was damage but no casualties on board the shipping. it matters because it took place at the bottom of the red sea, at the point where roughly 17,000 ships a year pass through. if you want to get from the mediterranean through the suez canal into the indian ocean, that is where you go. it is not the first time yemen's who —— rebels have fired. but this time they said were doing it in support of hamas in gaza. they are saying it was enabled by iran which is why there is a risk. if the us decides it wants to take out these missile launch sites, there is a possibility they will draw in iran and the us into a confrontation. it is exactly the regional escalation that rulers in the region are trying to avoid. what will the reaction to whitby internationally? the what will the reaction to whitby

nato allies because they cannot have a situation where this rebel army that took control nine years ago in yemen decides which ships internationally can pass through international maritime waters. we are not talking about yemen coastal waters it took place in international coastal waters and you cannot have that but at the same time if there will be direct military action against the houthi rebels, there will almost certainly be retaliation from iran which risks building this war into something much bigger. building this war into something much bigger-— the weather has been leading the news bulletins over the weekend with people talking about the weather. people love the snow but it has been a huge problem. here's carol. will it settle down? it will change and the cold weather we start with will be replaced by mild conditions and wet and windy conditions particularly from wednesday. we are swapping one for the other but a cold start with a risk of ice first thing. and it is pretty wet. this is the radar picture. we have rain across england and wales. some snow across england and wales. some snow across the hills of northern england through wales. as we go through the day, some of it will get down to low levels. and also in parts of scotland courtesy of low pressure moving northwards. for rush—hour, across parts of wales, the midlands and northern england, this is where we are looking at rain and snow. and the risk of ice so take extra care. we have another band of rain sweeping up from the south—west getting into the midlands later. we could see snow in parts of wales. windy conditions across the west of wales, southwest and channel islands. scotland and northern ireland will see snow in the uplands. wintry showers in the north—east of scotland and the tops of the hills in northern ireland. in the west, something dry and bright with sunshine. wherever you are, it will feel cold. a wind—chill. it will feel cold. a wind—chill. it will be a blustery day. through this evening and overnight, low—pressure drifts towards the near continent. we are pulling in a northerly component. rain around, wintry showers, in southern scotland, northern england and north wales. the rest of scotland and northern ireland, clearskies. it will the rest of scotland and northern ireland, clear skies. it will be cold, frosty. and where we have snow, the risk of ice. temperatures in parts of the highlands could fall down to —8. not as cold in the south but still cold. that leads into tomorrow and tomorrow we have the dregs of low pressure pulling slowly away, taking cloud and showers with it. the shower is increasingly confined to eastern parts of england. wintry flurries across northern scotland. dry weather around during the course of tuesday with temperatures getting up to three degrees in aberdeen. seven in london. lowerthan three degrees in aberdeen. seven in london. lower than that, three degrees in aberdeen. seven in london. lowerthan that, if three degrees in aberdeen. seven in london. lower than that, if you are in an area with lying snow. towards the end of the week, that is when the end of the week, that is when the temperature changes and weather comes in from the atlantic and it will turn mild, wet and windy. trying to decide which i prefer. i think neither is the answer. generations of us grew up reading enid blyton�*s books and the adventures of the famous five were always some of the favourites. now, the action—packed antics ofjulian, dick, anne, george and timmy the dog have been given a modern twist for a new bbc tv series. arts correspondent david sillito has been to the set to meet the cast. what cottage is this? this is kirrin cottage. so this is the door to kirrin cottage. this is kind of like — not really sure what this bit is. hello, i'm flora jacoby richardson. i'm playing anne and this is the tour of the famous five set. and then these are the steps. flora, as you can see, is giving me a tour of the set of a new tv series — the famous five. the famous five. is there a secret passage here? in there? there's not a secret passage here like that. oh, come on, there must be a secret passage in here somewhere. i feel like that's just a cupboard. 0h. oh, i think it's a secret passage. it's a secret passage that i did not know about. and i probably need to explain who the famous five are, because, while these enid blyton stories were, in the past, eagerly consumed by millions of children, these days, they're not quite so famous. had you ever read the books before this? no. i'd never heard of the famous five before this. did you read the books? well... that's a no, isn't it? i mean, when i got to like the fifth audition, i think, i went into the school library and i got the book out because i thought, why not? i might as well read it to help get in character. and then i got like — i could say halfway through, but probably like two chapters in and i was a bit, like, this is a bit boring, so i didn't... not like... the famous five boring?! but the way they kind of wrote it, it was kind of a bit different to adventure books that they make now. you're georgina, aren't you? the name's george. isn't that a boy's name? nevertheless, more than 50 years on from their heyday, the stories of anne, julian, dick, george and timmy are being adapted for television. children! exciting tales of wicked strangers, picnics and endless summers with uncle quentin and aunt fanny. she hasn't spoken to anyone her own age since christmas. so, as you can see, we have lovely timmy here. we have ginger beer, we have secret passages. for people who've grown up loving the books, nothing has changed. well, almost nothing. anne, for instance, is now... she's got quite an attitude — like a lot of her lines are like... careful of my luggage. i don't want it to get dropped. sure. don't put it on the floor. she's very bossy, which is different to in the books. i've heard, in the book, she's quite like a housewife kind of style and she stays home and does everything — like, loves tidying — which is very different in this series. is she like you? yeah, ifeel like me and anne are quite similar. ifeel like i don't — my mum said that i don't really have to, like, snap into character when i'm filming. george! and quentin and fanny have also been updated. aunt fanny is now a successful author. and quentin, the inventor, is a kept man. very excited to have you here. how has fanny changed? in loads of ways, really. you know, fanny is very much more i the aunt housewife in the books. i whereas now, i'd say she's- the breadwinner, wouldn't you? she is the breadwinner. yeah, quentin hasn't made a penny for a long time. . he was always a bit rubbish, wasn't he? because, you know, he was doing experiments. we never really worked out how he made any money. yeah. — always a bit rubbish? yeah, well, he hasn't earned any money, that's for sure. but he's on the precipice of... he'sjust a man in a shed, isn't he, with dreams? a man in a shed. but i think that's the beauty of being a man in a shed - with dreams who has _ a supportive, breadwinning wife. absolutely. you can realise your dreams, you know. i yeah. you're being taken for a ride here, aren't you? is it a ride? is it a ride or is it love? i think it's unconditional love we're talking about here. - it is. it's also worth noting the executive producer is nicolas winding refn — an acclaimed director of crime and horror movies. but worry not — the sets and props are all reassuringly famous five. but i did get flora to reveal one shocking truth. what's in here? i think you might have ginger beer in it. yeah, i wish it did. we've not had a lot of ginger beer in this series. have you drunk any? no. you haven't drunk any ginger beer? in this series, no. i feel like when this comes out, people are going to be mad because they're like, "where's the ginger beer?" there's only one line where they mention lashings of ginger beer, but we don't actually drink it. we drink coke and lemonade, but it's not the same. they haven't given you any ginger beer? you sound very shocked. is there a secret passage you can show me? ifeel like i've been told not to show the secret passages. however, although flora was sworn to secrecy, i did eventually convince her to show me one famous five hidden tunnel. this really is a famous five secret passage you're allowing me in here, isn't it? it is. but where it goes — no, i was told, that far and no further. i'll shut you in. all right. i'm not allowed out the end. i've got to come back down again, because it's a secret. now you have to wait for episode two to come out. flora's telling me. bossy? yes, what's the point of a secret passage if it's not secret? david sillito, bbc news, kirrin cottage. i love that. that is great. i love how off message flora is. she says it how it is. brilliant. the famous five is on this saturday on cbbc and bbc iplayer — and between christmas and new year on bbc one. it looks good. time for the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. growing numbers of children are now living far below the poverty line, leaving social workers and doctors struggling to cope. that's according to research by the charity the childhood trust, which suggests more than 105,000 children in london are in what's known as deep poverty — where the household income isn't enough to cover the basics. there are calls for more support forfamilies. the government says it's providing record cost—of—living support and increasing benefits. train passengers across the east and in london can expect disruption to services for much of this week due to industrial action. members of the drivers union aslef are staging a series of walkouts and banning overtime until next weekend. it's in a row over pay and conditions. rail operators are warning customers to expect significant timetable changes and cancellations. we do have some days where we are having earlier close—downs and later start—ups the next day. so please do head to our website or to national rail enquiries for all of the latest timetable information. please allow extra time for yourjourneys if you can and do expect those train services to be busier than normal. he's been described as one of the uk's queer icons. today people will come together to say a fond farewell to lgbt activist andrew lumsden. he passed away last month at the age of 82. he helped to organise the very first pride march and was the founder of the paper gay news. friends and fellow campaigners say he was a trailblazer and will be missed. special post boxes are being installed at airports, so that young travellers can get their christmas letters to santa. they'll be at gatwick and luton and there's also a collection picking up from nearby schools. easyjet is behind it, and says it expects to to fly around 200,000 families during the festive season. let's take a look at the tubes now. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. it's feeling a little less cold than over the weekend. it's a blustery day and we will see more outbreaks of rain. low pressure very much in charge. it's a blustery, breezy day. you can see these outbreaks of rain, some of those quite heavy. it will be cooler towards northern parts of east anglia — 6 celsius there, further south we are looking at around 8 celsius. overnight, we will see further spells of rain. we start to drag in more of a northerly and that air will feel chilly. temperatures not as low as zero — 3 celsius, but it is going to feel quite cold. a cloudy start tomorrow. we will see further outbreaks of rain. another unsettled day, but gradually it should start to break up a little towards the end of the day. temperature 6—7 celsius, so feeling a little bit chillier. then a cold night is that clears, so we are likely to see a frost as the wind starts to a bit lighter away from any coasts first thing on wednesday morning. so a chilly day for wednesday, but then, progressively, temperatures are getting milder. it stays unsettled through the rest of this week. that's it — back to sarah and jon. good morning, welcome to breakfast with sarah campbell and jon kay. our headlines today. israel says its ground offensive has now expanded to every part of the gaza strip — as the un warns that palestinians are running out of places to shelter. more weather warnings for snow and ice this morning, after parts of the uk were covered over the weekend. british lawyers could be stationed in rwandan courts as part of a plan to send asylum seekers to the west african country. in sport — floored. the drama was clearly too much for some. we'll find out what knocked pep off his feat in the premier league. good off his feat in the premier league. morning. it is a start good morning. it is a cloudy and wet start to the day across england and wales, with some hill snow, some getting to lower levels at times in the heavier bursts. for scotland and northern ireland, sunshine and some wintry showers. wherever you are, blustery and it will feel quite raw. all the details later. it's monday the 4th of december. our main story. israel says its ground offensive has now expanded to every part of the gaza strip following days of intense bombardment. the united nations says palestinians are being squeezed into a corner of the territory — worsening the already dire humanitarian conditions. yolande knell has this report. ominous warnings — the israeli flairs that hang in the night sky over gaza are followed by the thuds of explosions. rumbling explosion. and on the ground, israel's military says its offensive has now expanded to every part of the palestinian territory. it said its operations here will be of no less strength than those that have devastated the north. explosions, shouting. israel's already ordered more evacuations in the south of gaza, crowded with displaced people who were told to move here for their safety. a un official on the spot told the bbc that palestinians are running out of places to go. hundreds of thousands of people on the move, probably for the third orfourth time. some cannot because there's not enough transport to move them. many are well aware that they are moving to a place with no water, no shelter. it's cold, starting to rain. no... no sanitation. memories of a truce have faded fast, with a return to these all—too—familiar scenes of frantic searches in the rubble left by israeli air strikes. in khan younis, civilian casualties are overwhelming the local hospitals. israel says it will now carry on fighting here until its goals are met. one is to remove hamas from power. while hamas says it will only talk about releasing further israeli hostages it holds if that's tied to a permanent ceasefire. meanwhile, this war — now nearly two months old — continues to take a terrible toll. let's get more on this now with our middle east headlines over the weekend with snow. jon has more of the headlines. the rac has warned that today will be ice rink monday for some parts of the uk after the snow that fell over the weekend froze overnight. the met office has issued yellow weather warnings for ice for much of the north of england. our reporter yunus mulla is in cumbria, where some people are without

by foot. the conditions are treacherous. as far as the wider weather situation is concerned, you can see that the snow has turned to ice. there has been thawing of the snow, that causes its own problems on isolated roads. you will recall that at one stage around 30 centimetres of snow fell here. that meant drivers were stuck for several hours. most of those drivers have managed to get home. which we can still see vehicles on the of those roads so the clear up very much continues here. as far as the warning, a yellow warning for ice, for much of northern england, midlands and north wales, up to midday today. we also have warnings for snow, for wales and also at the peak district. if you are out and about i think the message is to be careful. most of the roads here in cumbria are now

as part of a treaty designed to get the policy of sending some asylum seekers to the african country off the ground. a deal is expected to be announced in the coming days. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman. henry, what sign of a deal? do you think it will happen this week? the sureme think it will happen this week? tue: supreme court think it will happen this week? tta: supreme court ruling think it will happen this week? "tt2 supreme court ruling which think it will happen this week? tt2 supreme court ruling which said that the rwanda policy as it stands is unlawful came last month and it was fairly devastating for the government because of the comprehensive way in which it ruled out the existing policy. there wasn't an obvious quick fix that the government could go ahead with. but the government was fairly quick to say it's plan b, or its plan b getting plan a going, was to sign a treaty with row under which they hoped would put the existing agreement from the rwandan government on assure surer legal footing and it does seem like a breakthrough is coming on that. potentially this week. one of the aspects of the treaty we are told that night, the government hopes, reassure uk courts once this inevitably gets back there is that they would send uk government lawyers out to rwanda to assist rwandan judges lawyers out to rwanda to assist rwandanjudges in lawyers out to rwanda to assist rwandan judges in dealing lawyers out to rwanda to assist rwandanjudges in dealing with lawyers out to rwanda to assist rwandan judges in dealing with the claims made by people who are sent there. because that might help assuage concerns about the viability of the rwandan legal system. those other things that would have to be done. we would expect emergency legislation here in the uk. the house of commons is one matter there, the government will probably get it through because of the majority it has but the house of lords as a whole separate question. you have a ticking clock down to the general election happening alongside this. so i do think it is possible we will see james cleverly, the home secretary, in rwanda this week talking about prospects of a deal. but what i am not sure that is is some silver bullet which means that the scheme will get going anytime soon. , . ~' the scheme will get going anytime soon. , ., ~ ,., the scheme will get going anytime soon. , ., ~ y., , . soon. 0k, henry, thank you very much indeed. sir keir starmer is to warn there'd be no big increase in government spending under a future labour government — saying ministers would face "huge constraints" because of high debt and inflation. he'll say the economic backdrop now is worse than in the aftermath of the financial crisis in 2008. he's due to give a speech at the launch of a report by the resolution foundation thinktank, which claims prosperity in the uk has fallen substantially behind that of comparable countries. 11 hikers have been found dead near the crater of indonesia's marapi volcano after it erupted over the weekend, rescuers say. there were 75 hikers in the area at the time of the eruption but most were safely evacuated. 12 others are still missing but the search has been suspended due to a small eruption. the active volcano spewed ash as high as three kilometres into the air on sunday. the government is facing a possible defeat in the commons later today, after dozens of conservative mps supported calls for a new body to be set up to compensate victims of the infected blood scandal of the 19705 and �*80s. it's thought 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv and hepatitis c after being given a blood transfusion or treatment for the blood disorder haemophilia. you might remember last week we told you about the uk's only two giant pandas getting ready to leave edinburgh zoo, where they've lived for the last 12 years. well, today yang guang and tian tian are heading back to china. here's our scotland correspondent alexandra mackenzie. a final farewell. edinburgh zoo has been home to the pandas for more than a decade. at the weekend, staff helped them to acclimatise to these crates, which will be used to help transport the animals back to china. staff at the zoo became attached to the giant pandas and their very different personalities, and say their departure will be emotional. some have looked after them since they arrived, and will travel with them on their return plane journey. there's been ups and downs, there's been stressful times over the past 12 years, but we've all taken to it in very good spirits. we've all had a great time doing it. i think it'll be such a change to our lives, to our day without them being here, and it will definitely be sad and definitely some getting used to kind of fitting into what our new normal is without them being here. while in scotland, there were eight attempts at artificial insemination between the pair, but yang guang and tian tian return home having failed to produce a cub. staff say they will be closely monitored while aboard the plane. during the flight, i'm not expecting to have major challenges. yang guang and tian tian are healthy, so my plan is to feed them plenty of bamboo throughout the flight. i will monitor them very closely, of course, and they will also have one of their favourite keepers with them, so they should be happy. the official handover of the two pandas will take place halfway between scotland and china. a zookeeper will hand over the keys to the crates, officially ending their time at edinburgh zoo. alexandra mackenzie, bbc news. 0h!.

suggest united utilities wrongly downgraded dozens of pollution incidents last year. the environment agency signed off all of the downgrades without attending any of the incidents. united utilities denies misreporting pollution. joe crowley reports. sewage is often dumped in our rivers and seas because of blocked sewers or equipment failures. these pollution incidents are suppose to be accurately reported by water companies to the environment agency. but last year, the agency attended just one in 20 reported incidents in england, and insiders say that allows water companies to cover up pollution. this whistleblower�*s words are spoken by an actor. you think pollution incidents have been kept off the books? yeah. i completely believe that. the system's rigged to prevent the reporting and investigation of serious incidents. panorama has looked at united utilities, which serves seven million customers in the north west of england. officially, it has the lowest number of pollution incidents — but we found evidence the company can make incidents disappear. take windermere in the lake district. last november, a fault meant untreated sewage was pumped into the lake. leaked documents show it was initially thought to be a serious category 2 incident. but the environment agency didn't attend, and the incident was later downgraded to a no—impact category 4. category 4s aren't counted in the official figures because the pollution is supposed to be so insignificant that it doesn't have any impact. the pollution in windermere was far worse than that. so if you downgrade pollution incidents to category 4, they drop off the books, they're not registered, and everything looks better than it really is. they appear to be getting better, but that's not the case. and people out there and on the river bank, they know this isn't the case. united utilities told us we were wrong — there was no discharge from the outfall in the middle of the lake, and that water samples taken on the lakeshore showed no environmental impact. but we've got hold of united utilities' own documents. they say the location of the outfall was in the body of the lake. we've even got their map showing the discharge point. when we asked you originally about this, you said it wasn't true — you didn't dump sewage in the middle of the lake — but you did, didn't you? so "dumping" is not the correct word to use but i do accept that, on this occasion, you know, sewage ended up in the lake as a result of that failure, yeah. our leaked documents suggest windermere wasn't a one—off. there's discoloured water where the pollution is entering the river. we found dozens of cases last year that looked like united utilities wrongly downgraded pollution incidents to category four. caller states the area affected is 30 to 40 feet. all appear to have an impact. now, we've shared our evidence with two serving environment agency officers, and they agree with us — there are at least 60 cases here that appear to have been wrongly downgraded to category 4. united utilities says it's false to suggest they misreport pollution incidents, and that the final categorisations are decided by the environment agency. the agency says some monitoring can be done remotely, it responds to all incidents, and always attends the most serious. joe crowley, bbc news. panorama's the water pollution cover—up is on bbc iplayer now and bbc one at 8pm tonight. if you have a smart meter, and millions of us do, 3 million of them in england, scotland and wales are still not working properly

message highlights the problem starkly. they said they have gone from being in credit to owing over £6,000 in one month. their next direct debit is for more than £600, and their last phone call, they were told the smart meter would be sorted out. it hasn't been yet so i have to try to phone again this morning and i'm so upset about it. that try to phone again this morning and i'm so upset about

example, carol in grimsby said, since the beginning of may my supplier has been unable to collect data from a gas usage. i wasn't worried over the summer but now it is cold and i can't monitor my gas usage, i'm nervous about switching and heating. richard interest it had and heating. richard interest it had a smart meterfor a year and all that time the electricity but hasn't worked and in spite of

they were underpaying, it was harder to read on the old—style metres and there is a frustration people are saying they feel in terms of trying to get it fixed. they speak to the supplier and sometimes it takes ages to get through on the phone and they are still waiting for it to be fixed. energy uk, the trade body, has basically said that these smart meters should make things easier for people, if suppliers have problems reported to them, it is in the interest of the supplier to get it fixed sooner rather than later you want to hear from what people? if people are hearing these examples, thinking that is what has happened to me, we would love to hear these examples. that is something we want to revisit because it clearly affects many people and remember the roll—out is pushing smart meters, the governor target is 80% of homes and businesses to have smart meters so these will become more and more prevalent. around 3 million not working properly. hat prevalent. around 3 million not

council in england has decided to hand out free bike lights in an attempt to make riders more easy to spot for drivers. phillip norton has been looking at what a difference this can make. a busy road near a main shopping centre. can you spot the cyclist? it's not easy if they're without lights. there's one here, too. and another in hull city centre. this is how it looks to drivers. if we digitally make the video brighter, the cyclists become clearer. we attached a camera to a car last night, and gathered this footage in just a few hours. you're looking in your mirror, and then all of a sudden, a dark shadow comes. you think, "oh, god," and you've got to stop. takeaway drivers — theyjust shoot out at you, no lights on or anything. i think it's disgusting — absolutely. i saw an accident on the road the other week — a bus had hit a cycle. he had no lights, he were all dressed in black. in the last five years, there've been over 5,000 casualties on the roads in hull — a quarter of those were cyclists. would you like some free bike lights? you just want to pull in, please? it's why tonight cyclists without lights are being stopped and given some for free. it is a legal requirement to have lights on your bikes... i know, yeah. i've been meaning to get one. ..particularly when the darker nights are in now. the funding comes from safer roads humber, and that is funding that comes from speed—awareness courses, and that money is then redirected into measures that reduce casualties in collisions. you're dressed in black. does it occur to you what you might look like to a driver? not really, but... it should but, yeah, no, it doesn't. i have lights. i mean, the batteries fell out last night and i couldn't find them. but it is good that you're handing out free lights to people, so i'll happily take them. i went to town, but they were too expensive, as well, for me to buy. but luckily, like, you guys were here. gives me a warm feeling i inside on this cold evening. it's the right thing to do. we want people to be safe - on our roads, and this is our way of doing it at the moment. so what are the rules? well, to legally cycle in the dark, you must have a white front light and a red rear light, a red reflector at the back — and, if your bike was made after 1985, amber reflectors in the pedals. yeah, so do you make sure that you have them fitted. and reflecting on their own road safety tonight... take care! ..around 30 cyclists now much more visible on the road. phillip norton, bbc news. we can get more on this now with wayne curry from the cycling education company bike right. thank you for coming in. it sounds obvious, that you look more noticeable on a bike if you have liked but it's amazing how many people don't. liked but it's amazing how many people don't-— people don't. absolutely, can i first thank— people don't. absolutely, can i first thank the _ people don't. absolutely, can i first thankthe bbc— people don't. absolutely, can i first thank the bbc for - people don't. absolutely, can i j first thank the bbc for covering some thing so important as this. in terms of having cycle lights on your bike, in the highway code cycle needs a red rear light and a white light to make yourself visible. when i say visible, i don't want to incur drivers to go along like blackpool illuminations, we should be making ourselves visible to other road users, not being seen from space. a big focus that i want to bring in about being visible is actually riding to the national standard. there is a national standard for cycle training, which is delivered in schemes right across the country, through a scheme called bikeability, which focuses on the xxxr core functions of cycling. making observations, riding in the right position, communicating our intentions and we understand priority. to anyone who has completed bikeability, that is the four key skills. one of the main focus is to go into is our position, where you should be cycling on the road. we have the primary position and the secondary position. the primary position is much more of a "follow me" position that cyclist would say when they are trying to avoid a pothole or if they are passing a slow moving vehicle, passing a slow moving vehicle, passing a slow moving vehicle, passing a side road or making a turn at a junction or a roundabout. follow me? that is a more central

that traffic will stay behind them. there will be loads of motorists this morning who will be saying... i'm a motorist myself, it is fine. that annoys a lot of drivers are. tt that annoys a lot of drivers are. tit can do but a lot of drivers are cyclists, as well, so it is a two—way stream and cars are taking up two—way stream and cars are taking up far too much space on the road. the other position is a secondary position, which is the position where riders will ride where they are happy to be overtaken, which is are happy to be overtaken, which is a "pass me" position, usuallyjust to the a "pass me" position, usugllyjust to the left a "pass me" position, usuallyjust to the left of the traffic flow, but no less than an arm at�*s length from the curb, and this is where cyclists will generally ride unless there is a reason to move further out. this is a lot easier— a reason to move further out. this is a lot easier if— a reason to move further out. this is a lot easier if the _ a reason to move further out. this is a lot easier if the driver can see the cyclist and that is the problem, particularly at this time of year because people may believe the house and it will be dark. totally agree. in a city like manchester there are lights everywhere and, you know, is a cyclist, i cycle everywhere myself on the main thing is where you position yourself at junctions. on the main thing is where you position yourself atjunctions. if you don't position yourself whether drivers will see you, they willjust miss you completely. my advice to any cyclists getting ready to go out this morning, make sure you have had some breakfast, it is really important, grab an extra slice of toast, see how many weetabix you can pile into your bowl. dress appropriately for the weather, it is cold

fantastic game of football. then one refereeing decision. the story at anfield was complicated. fulham led 3—2 up till the 87th minute. but when they equalised, it was a step but not enough. liverpool know the standards it takes to win this league. in a match they had to win, the ball broke for their right back. and there it is! alexander—arnold. a win takes them second. but this match had brought a moment. there is no greater way to change momentum than snatching victory from defeat. an unbelievable game. full of emotion. you can see by the celebration. that is football and you have to stay on track and i told the boys we can keep that feeling around the 3—3, when we kept believing. the premier league is too tough that you want to win always in a most convincing way. the goals showed today that sometimes you have to force it. both liverpool and city still trail arsenal at the top and between now and may, all three will rise and fall. but this may have been a sunday they will all look back on at the end. a story of great entertainers today. and we might have a bit more. after that drama, let's focus a little more on the joy. this is ramsgate on their way to putting themselves in the draw for the third round of the fa cup. they are the lowest—ranked side left, they're from the eighth tier. they play tonight for the right to play ipswich. it's on the tv. and fair to say the club are excited. a really good team now, we all work together, and i think this is a really big thing for ramsgate. i'm just so excited because ramsgate have a chance of winning it. the romance of the fa cup is what it is all— the romance of the fa cup is what it is all about — the underdog — it's not the size of the dog, - it's the fight in the dog, and that's what - ramsgate's all about. before the fa cup we'd never sold a hat or scarf before, and now, even in the last few weeks we've sold over 300, so it's made a massive difference. and to the atmosphere of the club, it's just amazing. you might have seen might, he was down there seeing how they get on the head of the big game. it could be entertaining. keep an eye on it. i think the hats and scarves they were selling would be entirely needed because it has been freezing. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. good morning. it has been a cold few days, a cold week. through this week, it will change. starting off on that cold note. it will be wet and windy and with that, we will see mild conditions. this morning, a wet start, a lot of rain in england and wales with snow, a lot of it on the hills but some getting to lower levels through the morning. we also have snow showers across parts of northern and eastern scotland and the hills in northern ireland. no pressure is driving the weather, pushing northwards. snow in the southern uplands later. a blustery day. the strongest wind with exposure in parts of the south—west, west wales and channel islands. if you are travelling this morning, there is a risk of ice in northern england and eastern scotland. through the day, we will find low pressure pushes further north and will take rain and snow into the southern uplands. we have a system coming up from the south—west taking rain across the midlands. snow showers persist across the north and east of scotland but towards the west of scotland and northern ireland, drier conditions and sunshine. blustery, feeling cold. there will be a wind chill. these are the temperatures but against your skin, feeling quite raw. overnight, low pressure pushes off to the near continent. the wind coming from the north—east and we will see rain at times and also snow showers across northern england, southern uplands and north wales. under clear skies across scotland and northern ireland, especially where we have snow, it will be cold. temperatures in the highlands could be —8. not as cold further south but still feeling cold first thing tomorrow. tomorrow, we start with cloud, showers. the showers becoming confined to eastern parts of england. frosty and ic in parts of scotland and northern ireland but here we will see sunshine coming through. and these are the temperatures. 3—10. snow showers persisting across eastern scotland. things start to change. the blue usurped by the yellow from the west indicating milder air coming our way. it is also bringing unsettled conditions. rain coming through accompanied by gusty wind. for wednesday, we start on a cold note. wednesday, we start on a cold note. we could have temperatures as low as -10 we could have temperatures as low as —10 in parts of scotland. we will start to see the change from the west in the shape of wetter, windy and mild weather which will be with us towards the end of the and mild weather which will be with us towards the end of the week. thing is getting wet and windy and mild. you give with the one hand and take away with the other. but always lovely to see you. he's been described as "the man who invented the sound of the '80s". trevor horn worked with some huge bands — like frankie goes to hollywood and abc. his new album sees him join some of his favourite singers to create new versions of some of the songs he loves. he'lljoin us in a moment. let's listen to the music. # video killed the radio star. # in my mind and and in my car. # we can't rewind we've gone too far. # people walking through my head. # one of them has got a gun # to shoot the other one. # and yet together they were friends at school. i # relax, don't do it. # when you wanna go to it. # relax, don't do it. # when you want to come. # relax, don't do it. guitar riff. we wa nt we want to keep that going. trevor hornjoins us. that has woken us up. you say it is freezing out there. freezing. a pleasure to be here. you are reinterpreting some of your favourites.— reinterpreting some of your favourites.

the united nations says palestinians are being squeezed into a corner of the territory — worsening the already dire humanitarian conditions. yolande knell has this report. ominous warnings — the israeli flares that hang in the night sky over gaza are followed by the thud5 of explosions. rumbling explosion. and on the ground, israel's military says its offensive has now expanded to every part of the palestinian territory. it said its operations here will be of no less 5trength than those that have devastated the north. explosions, shouting. israel's already ordered more evacuations in the south of gaza, crowded with displaced people who were told to move here for their safety. a un official on the spot told the bbc that palestinians are running out of places to go. hundreds of thousands of people on the move, probably for the third orfourth time. some cannot because there's not enough transport to move them. many are well aware that they are moving to a place with no water, no shelter. it's cold, starting to rain. no... no sanitation. memories of a truce have faded fast, with a return to these all—too—familiar scenes of frantic searches in the rubble left by israeli air strikes. in khan younis, civilian casualties are overwhelming the local hospitals. israel says it will now carry on fighting here until its goals are met. one is to remove hamas from power. while hamas says it will only talk about releasing further israeli hostages it holds if that's tied to a permanent ceasefire. meanwhile, this war — now nearly two months old — continues to take a terrible toll. let's get more on this now with our middle east correspondent yolande knell. yolande, good morning. let's talk about the humanitarian situation. what has been the impact on aid going into gaza

ground? yeah, there was some confusion about what the end of the i confusion about what the end of the truce last week would really mean for aid going into gaza after we saw it increased for a number of days. what palestinian officials told the bbc last night is that yesterday about 100 of aid were able to enter. they included three lorry loads of fuel which has been severely restricted by israel since the war began. a small number of palestinians were able to leave through egypt's rafah crossing. the problem is aid distribution, we have been told by the un. they did some in rafah itself where people have been fleeing too, but the un says it has not been able to carry out aid distribution in most of khan ounis because of these hostilities. the gaza strip has effectively been split into three parts. the un saying it is much harder to get aid to the central parts of the gaza strip and also in the north, no aid is being delivered there since last friday, when that true completely broke

for some parts of the uk — after the snow that fell over the weekend froze overnight. the met office has issued yellow weather warnings for ice for much of the north of england.our reporter yunus mulla is in cumbria for us this morning, where some people are without electricity. gosh, it is not going anywhere, is it, this is no? the conditions on some of the roads are absolutely treacherous. the some of the roads are absolutely treacherous.— treacherous. the focus of this coordinated _ treacherous. the focus of this coordinated response - treacherous. the focus of this coordinated response to - treacherous. the focus of this coordinated response to that l treacherous. the focus of this - coordinated response to that heavy snowfall over the weekend has moved to support in the communities affected by what has happened over the past two days or so. in particular the loss of power and electricity supplies. at one stage around 7500 homes and businesses were without power. that number has now fallen to several hundred, possibly up to 1000 people. the problems remain access to the damaged network and those overhead power lines which have been damaged. the conditions are treacherous. that means that even 4x4 vehicles cannot get to some of these remote locations and so equipment is being carried on foot and clearly that is going to lead to delays for those homeowners and householders have art without power. the wider weather picture here, there is a knock—on impact on schools, around 40 schools are close this morning, children have been told to stay at home as a result of all the snow. there is that yellow weather warning for ice in place for here, the lakes, but also much of the north of england, the midlands and north wales. that is in place until midday today there is in place until midday today there is also warnings for snow, as well, for wales and also the peak district. here we had up to 30 centimetres over the weekend. most of that is clearing up, of course that brings its own problems for motorists and drivers. you will remember those pictures over the weekend of those drivers stuck, most of those have now gone home. there are some vehicles on the side of some of the more isolated roads. the clear up their continuous but clearly motorists are being warned to drive with care and if you are out and about also to be careful. yunus, thank you. carol will give the full forecast in a few minutes' time and the latest from our teams around the uk. in other news... british lawyers could be stationed in rwandan courts as part of a treaty designed to get the policy of sending some asylum seekers to the african country off the ground. a deal is expected to be announced in the coming days. let's speak now to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman. it is all about coming up with a treaty, a deal between the uk and wonder. . �* , , ., , , wonder. that's right. this treaty is not uuite wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan _ wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan b- _ wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan b. it _ wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan b. it is _ wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan b. it is plan - wonder. that's right. this treaty is not quite plan b. it is plan b - not quite plan b. it is plan b forgetting plan a going if that makes sense because the supreme court ruling a month or so ago was really damaging to the government prospects of getting the rwanda policy going —— it is plan b for getting plan a going. this would basically give more illegal heft to the assurances that the rwandan government has already given the uk government, the assurances which the supreme court said were not enough for this policy to be lawful. we are told that as part of this treaty you could see british government lawyers going to rwanda to advise the rwandan judges as asylum claims go on about how they should rule, how they should come to a decision. it is worth noting, though, that illegal immigration is just one of the bits of migration policy that has become very fraught in discussions within the conservative party over recent weeks. the other is legal migration and we saw a few days ago that net migration has rocketed since the uk left the eu, which is a source of huge frustration for many in rishi sunak�*s party. and i get the sense that things might be moving on that, as well. we have heard members of rishi sunak�*s government, notjust his party, pushing for him recently to take a much tougher line, to increase the minimum salary that migrants coming here have to earn, perhaps to crack down on the number of dependents that people who are here lawfully can bring with them. now, i don't know what side rishi sunak has fallen down on those debates, but it does sound like that debates, but it does sound like that debate is nearing a conclusion so we could have a very big week in westminster politics, notjust on illegal migration and asylum but also on legal migration, as well. henry, thank you very much indeed. staying with politics... the culture secretary has confirmed to breakfast that she is looking at limiting the increase to the next licence fee. it's due to go up by about £15 next april. speaking in the last half hour, she also said that the government was looking at a broader review on how to fund the bbc in future. 400,000 people did not renew their licences, their licence fee, over the course of the last year. the media landscape is changing. we're not consuming the bbc like we used to consume it. so i'm also looking at a broader review on, how do we make the licence fee overall fairer to licence fee payers, and how do we maintain the amazing service that the bbc provides? 11 hikers have been found dead near the crater of indonesia's marapi volcano after it erupted over the weekend, rescuers say. meanwhile, the search to find 12 climbers who are missing following the eruption of the marapi volcano in west sumatra has been temporarily halted this morning over safety concerns. there were 75 hikers in the area at the time of the eruption but most were safely evacuated. the active volcano spewed ash as high as three kilometers into the air yesterday. the government is facing a possible defeat in the commons later today, after dozens of conservative mp5 supported calls for a new body to be set up to compensate victims of the infected blood scandal of the 19705 and '805. it's thought 30,000 nhs patients were infected with hiv and hepatitis c after being given a blood transfusion or treatment for the blood disorder haemophilia. a couple unwittingly lived with an unexploded bomb in their garden for more than four decades — because they assumed it was a garden ornament. sian and jeffrey edwards from milford haven thought it was a "dummy" bomb with no charge. they were wrong! it's now been detonated by a bomb—disposal team. thumbs up. but,

bill and his wifejo, who we followed last year afterjo was diagnosed with alzheimer's. sadly, jo died injanuary, shortly after moving into a care home. bill wanted to highlight the sometimes devastating and heartbreaking struggles faced by those living with dementia — and the loved—ones who take care of them. tim muffett reports now on bill and jo's story. mwah! i love you to bits, don't i? i love you to bits. up, stand up. help me, jo, help me. this is a story of devotion and dedication. you're doing really good. and the exhaustion, frustration... ..and sadness of alzheimer's. he sobs. it's devastatingly hard, watching the woman that you love starting to disappear from your life. drjo wilson trained as a nurse. she went on to become a hugely successful businesswoman. she was darned good at what she did, and had an international reputation. i'lljust pull it over your head. last year, her husband, bill, invited the bbc to film the struggles they faced. as jo's alzheimer's tightened its grip. 0k? that nice and comfy? as they showed, with alzheimer's, everything gets harder. wait. jo! jo, hang on. jo, this way. i'm not going shopping at all. i'm going home. don't walk away. if you had jo back for a moment — a lucid moment — what would you say to her, bill? "i love you." he weeps. nothing else. having wanted jo to carry on living at home, bill eventually realised that was no longer possible. get you tucked in. but the cost and bureaucracy of getting a residential care home place were both huge challenges. bill, we're ready when you're ready. 0k. when they finally got the go—ahead, it was bittersweet. i've kind of built up to this moment, but when someone says it out loud, i'm...devastated. special girl. earlier this year, just a week after moving into a residential home, jo became gravely ill. if you're ready to go... ..let go. cos i'll be ok. jo wilson died, aged 69, injanuary. bill held her hand as she passed away. billjoins us now, and we're also joined by lizzie israeli from the alzheimer's society. we will speak to her in just a

weather where you are. hello, good morning, i'm angie george. the news now across london and the east. growing numbers of children are now living far below the poverty line, leaving social workers and doctors struggling to cope. that's according to research by the charity the childhood trust, which suggests more than 105,000 children in london are in what's known as deep poverty where the household income isn't enough to cover the basics. there are calls for more support forfamilies. the government says it's providing record cost of living support and increasing benefits. train passengers across the east and in london can expect disruption to services for much of this week due to industrial action. members of the drivers union aslef are staging a series of walkouts and banning overtime until next weekend. it's in a row over pay and conditions. rail operators are warning customers to expect signicant timetable changes and cancellations. we do have some days where we are having earlier close—downs and later start—ups the next day. so please do head to our website or to national rail enquiries for all of the latest timetable information. please allow extra time for yourjourneys if you can and do expect those train services to be busier than normal. he's been described as one of the uk's queer icons. today, people will come together to say a fond farewell to lgbt activist andrew lumsden. he died last month at the age of 82. he helped to organise the very first pride march and was the founder of the paper gay news. friends and fellow campaigners say he was a trailblazer and will be missed. special post boxes are being installed at airports so that young travellers can get their christmas letters off to santa. they'll be at luton and gatwick and there's also a collection picking up from nearby schools. easyjet is behind it and says it expects to to fly around 200,000 families during the festive season. let's take a look at the tubes now. there are minor delays on the central line, other than that a good service overall this morning. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's feeling a little less cold than over the weekend. it's a blustery day and we will see more outbreaks of rain. low pressure very much in charge. it's a blustery, breezy day. you can see these outbreaks of rain, some of those quite heavy. it will be cooler towards northern parts of east anglia — 6 celsius there, further south we are looking at around 8c. overnight, we will see further spells of rain. we start to drag in more of a northerly and that air will feel chilly. temperatures not as low as zero — 3 celsius, but it is going to feel quite cold. a cloudy start tomorrow. we will see further outbreaks of rain. another unsettled day, but gradually it should start to break up a little towards the end of the day. temperature 6—7 celsius, so feeling a little bit chillier. then a cold night as that clears, so we are likely to see a frost as the wind starts to a bit lighter away from any coasts first thing on wednesday morning. so a chilly day for wednesday, but then, progressively, temperatures are getting milder. it stays unsettled through the rest of this week. that's it — we're backjust after nine. back to sarah and jon. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sarah campbell. lovely to have you with us. if you had an easy weekend, kevin sinfield did not. he has been doing his seven in seven in seven challenge. he's running seven ultra marathons in seven cities in seven days, raising money to support people with motor neurone disease, like his good friend and former rugby teammate rob burrow. today he's near edinburgh, taking on his fourth ultra marathon in four days. john maguire is with him. a5 as he has been for in the past days. good morning. yesterday, it was hard going. the weather did not make it easy. no, and i do not know if it is a goodidea no, and i do not know if it is a good idea to look at the forecast because it does not have much optimism in it for the locations of the rest of the challenge. halfway through but look at this for a backdrop. stunning to see. it will be a spectacular start to kevin's latest ultra marathon. starting on the other side, finishing at murrayfield. and doing them within four hours and they hit that target every day. it is an ultramarathon because it is a marathon with an extra mile and the extra mile involves people from the mnd community, a highlight of these events. wonderfulfor to bring people together and for them to meet kevin and the team and to rob burrow vicariously. and this is doddie weir country. what they will do today on the route, which you can check out on the leeds rhinos social accounts. a five is built—in because five was doddie weir's number. seven was rob burrow�*s rugby league shirt number. if yesterday, i think i remember, we were in birmingham. this is what happened. birmingham, a city with reputedly more miles of canals than venice, and kevin sinfield, a man with more miles under his belt than there are canals in both cities combined. another 27 ahead today — the third out of seven with the extra mile right at the start at the alexandra stadium, home of birmingham's commonwealth games. cheering. keep going! people from the local motor neurone disease community were once again able to run with the team. since his diagnosis, sam perkins has raised more than £250,000 to fund the fight. lynn pritchett lost her husband mel to the disease six years ago. ever since, she's devoted herself to making a difference. it's a very different world now, six years on from when we were diagnosed. a lot more awareness, a lot more support. it's amazing. for families who very sadly will have the devastating diagnosis, what rob and kev are doing — and other members of the community — isjust phenomenal. for people living difficult lives with an uncertain future, this was a morning to celebrate life. it's important to raise awareness. i do everything that i can to raise awareness. the more people that know about motor neurones, the more awareness that people will have, the more money will be raised and the closer we'll get to finding a cure. so that's my goal, at the moment — to raise awareness, which is why i wear bright things to get people talking and then i'll tell them about mnd. i have motor neurone, as well, and my family are here supporting me today. yeah, and how are things, generally? difficult, as they are with the disease. and that's what we're here to do — to spread a bit of awareness about it. so spirits were high first thing. we're here with the cyclists now — martin, darreland phil. guys, tell us, what's your job — safety, morale, just keeping pace setting, keeping things going? everything. just keeping everyone going, keep everyone smiling and keeping everyone on track, keeping the lads fed and watered. we've got drinks on our bikes, food on our bikes and playing music as we go and just bringing some good times and cheer along the way. darrel, you get a lot from the crowd, don't you? oh, god, amazing. yeah, i think that helps. i think there are some lonely parts when there's nobody out, but when they come out, they definitely give us a push. it's amazing. i think the amount of people that's putting the money, their hand in their pocket and we are collecting that, it's absolutely amazing. so that's what keeps us going, as well, yeah. phil, there's a bit of banter, isn't there, between the whole team? yeah, yeah. we keep their spirits up and try- and take their mind off the running and have a laugh and a joke. us three are responsible i for the navigating, as well. that explains a lot. well, yeah, it does. we get in trouble because we tend to take a few wrong turns - here and there, but we get them back on track pretty quick. _ that's the extra mile, so it's all good. - the extra extra mile. yeah. kev's not happy, but we get it done. but the cold, the wet, the mid—challenge lull was taking its toll. this was a tough day to be running the third arduous ultramarathon in three days. support along the route was, as always, greatly appreciated. but kev, chris and dave all seem to be lonely. at long last, though, after almost four hours of pounding the pavements and roads, chilled to the bones, birmingham's centenary square was in sight. i reckon that goes in the cold, hard, miserable column, right? yeah, very much so. ithink, you know, probably about 35k and then started to come alive a little bit. i think the training side certainly helped. you know, it's a tough old day, that, a tough day. like, day three, two. we had a great send—off and then it was a tough day. a lot of hills, wet, cold, miserable, but the people we saw on the route have been brilliant again. and then to finish with this. people are christmas shopping and it's chucking it down, but they've come here for us and they've come here for the mnd community, come to show how much they matter and how much they care about them and it's brilliant. former rugby player carl hogg joined the team for the day. a great friend of doddie weir, he says one year on from his death with mnd, his legacy lives on through days like these. it's pretty wet and miserable. but, you know, it's 12 months ago since we lost doddie — a week past sunday. and itjust puts everything in perspective that people still care. you know, there's still a massive, thriving mnd community and guys like kevjust keep the challenge going, rolling forward. completing the run didn't mean the day was over. there was also the six—hour journey aboard the rob burrow bus to edinburgh. a chance then to decompress, or, for the runners' aching legs, the chance to compress. john maguire, bbc news, birmingham. that was birmingham and this is scotland just outside edinburgh with a couple of people i will introduce in a second. with scott, dave and kevin. the compression trousers, wallace and gromit beats nasa space

it. we think of success at the elite level but is is trying to make all of the women's game elite. and you think of players not earning much money and balancing it with otherjobs. how do you best prepare? how do you play it to your best when you try to do that alongside it? and how you get the young girls in to stay. a wide reaching review karen carney ledge that has received government backing. at the heart of it trying to improve standards. good morning. lasting change and creating £1 billion industry. that is karen carney�*s aim. the review found there are discrepancies in paying, standards facilities, and the recommendation making the top two tears of women's football professional. and a dedicated broadcast lot. the culture secretary said there is a long way to go to bridge the gap in financing. there is a massive disparity, and i think that we absolutely need to narrow that gap. and what we need is to make sure that the women's game is more commercial, that it attracts more broadcast income. because if we do that and we maintain its professionalism, the women will be enabled to be paid more. so, absolutely, we need to work towards equalisation of pay, and we need to do that gradually so it's affordable. a reminder we've seen the third round draw of the fa cup, and some big games include arsenal hosting liverpool, and a local rivalry as sunderland take on newcastle — all of those fixtures are on the bbc sport website. but it's notjust the big teams as we know, non—league eastleigh shocked league one reading with a 94th minute winner — there was a pile on in the dug—out, fans going mad in the stands. they will take on newport county or barnet in the next round. wrexham could be about to write another hollywood sciptline, beating non—league side yeovil 3—0. they'll play shrewsbury next in the third round. i'm sure rob and ryan were watching. and how about this tonight? the lowest—ranked side left in the competition. this is ramsgate on their way to putting themselves in the draw for the third round. they are the lowest—ranked side left, they're from the eighth tier. they play tonight for the right to play ipswich. it's on the tele. fair to say the club are excited. now one line to bring you which broke late last night. australia's gold coast has withdrawn its bid to host the 2026 commonwealth games saying it lacks support from state or federal governments. there are no other firm bids to host either the 2026 or 2030 games. governments say the cost of the event is skyrocketing, while some experts have argued the games' global image you wonder if london can step in. and something to ponder this morning, where does ronnie o'sullivan rank alongside the all time greats of sport after winning a record—extending eighth uk snooker title? it came two days before his 48th birthday, beating ding junhui, 30 years after his first. he has more major titles that anyone else. and were there a record for who's been showered in ticker tape more than anyone else, he'd probably hold that too. showing no signs of stopping, he said. he has to be up there. mani o'sullivan. always. definitely. a lot of response to bill, who spoke

figures from the department for energy. ben's been taking a look at this and the ongoing impact it's having on customers. it is fairto it is fair to say this chimes with the audience as an issue affecting a lot of people. i cannot overstate the deluge of messages we have had. more than i can remember than any other issue we have touched on. a lot of people having problems. the reassuring thing is they are not alone but there does not seem to be a quick fix solution. yes, having a faulty smart meter can cause problems with your energy bill, meaning you could end up paying too much or too little for your gas and electricity. a smart meter sends your meter readings to your energy supplier automatically. so your bills should be more accurate than when you submit your own meter readings manually. and you should never get an estimated bill. as it stands, over 33 million have been fitted. that's 58 per cent of all homes and businesses in britain have one installed. and the government's target is to have smart meters in 80 per cent of homes by the end of 2025, saying this is crucial to making homes more energy—efficient. the roll out�*s not all been plain sailing though. latest figures show almost three million still aren't working properly and that's leading to customers being charged the wrong amount for their energy bills. it's something that's happened to paula and sharlene. our business correspondent, marc ashdown has more on their story and the things you need to look out for. mum—of—two paula lives in east yorkshire. she says she's had problems with her smart meter pretty much from day one. there were constant issues with the readings, which led to her being told she was nearly £1,000 in debt. her supplier, edf, twice took lump sums out of her bank account — she says without warning. it was on a friday and it was the weekend. so i couldn't, like, get food, petrol, nothing, because they'd completely cleared my account out. so they then refunded that — so it was an error, so they refunded it twice and put it back into my account on the monday. but one of the times, it took seven days — so that's a whole week with, like, no money. £200 a month for a very, very small house, when over last winter, i never put the heating on once so we were absolutely freezing. i didn't dare put it on. edf has apologised, and acknowledged it fell short in finding a solution for paula. it said it had made various attempts to fix the issues, which have so far been unsuccessful. sharlene peppard is also an edf customer. she actually asked for a smart meter, as a high—energy household — she has 11 children. at first it worked ok, helping her budget her energy use — but both her gas and electricity smart meters then developed problems. her direct debit payments were suddenly recalculated from £200 a month to just £2 a month, leaving her completely in the dark as to how much energy the family was using. i've been able to do absolutely nothing at all. we've been helpless, completely and utterly helpless through it all. initially, i could take manual reads, which was giving me some idea of what i was using, but then all the screens on my smart meters have just stopped working altogether now. again, edf has apologised and said it has booked another appointment with sharlene to try to fix the problem. the charity citizens advice is concerned about the number of people having problems with their smart meters. there are three things which need to be working properly. there's the actual meter itself — on the wall - or maybe in the cupboard. then there's the in—home display that you get given when you get a new smart meter, i although more people will now use an app to understand what they're using. i then there's the communication between the smart meter itselfl and the central system, | which collects the meter readings and gives them to your energy supplier. | if any one of those three things isn't working, then people - won't have the information that they need. _ both the regulator, ofgem, and uk energy — the trade association — said the onus is on energy companies to look into smart—meter issues quickly and put billing errors right as soon as possible. they stress that people can still fall back on manual readings, but urged anyone with an unresolved issue to contact the ombudsman for help. marc ashdown, bbc news. so many of you have been in touch and a viewer who did not want to give their name said their smart meter has not worked properly since 2021 and no gas reading. they say they have tried over 16 times to get it fixed with terrible stress and worry and as a single person on a low income it is a constant on my mind. jennifer said our smart meter was not reading our electricity reading but the company failed to send anyone to investigate and for a year our bills were based on an estimate and we went from £500 in credit to £2000 in debt almost overnight. it caused a lot of stress. the supplier even added late payment charges. we have an open case with the energy ombudsman. just a couple of examples and we have had so many. if you want help and advice, look at the tackling together part of the cost of living paid on the bbc news website with plenty of advice and support. people coming up to christmas and people bothered about the bills, the last thing they need is this. you're watching bbc breakfast. it's 8:59 live from london, this is bbc news. israel tells around 170,000 gaza residents to move further south, as it continues a ground invasion of the
