Despite that his image was used dozens of times. 0thers posts were linked to girlfriend me fundraising pages. We found another elderly lady who was on her bed and look like she was getting many looking away from thee, but at the bottom of the camera you could see her name, address, telephone number, and your bank details. James anderson has apologised for those posts and has admitted the safeguarding issues but we also found a pattern of misleading some of them quite egregious. The photo of them quite egregious. The photo of them quite egregious. The photo of the woman with the blacked out base, it stated she was a victim of Carbon Monoxide poisoning and died. James anderson has admitted that story was fake and will investigate how that got onto his twitter account so there will now be serious questions being asked about what was being posted on these social media accounts and also what happened to the money that was raised from these fundraising appeals.

It is true to say significant amount of money . It is true to say that significant amount of money . It is true to say that it significant amount of money . It 3 true to say that it is a fact that depher has helped thousands of people, hundreds of people with free boilers, also helped people with gas and electricity payments and they have also helped people in food poverty so this is a company that has done a lot of good but it is also a company that has boomed with donations. We found donations doubled from 21 22, 22 23, to 1. 259 p. At the end of that year have £1 million was still left in the bank account. When we analysed the figures, money, depher� s cash was used to buy a house. James anderson said that house was an asset for depher stop he was entitled to do that under the of a Community Interest company, and that the money that has races goes back into depher to carry on the good work he does, but still there are serious questions that need urgent answers.

To ukraine, where Russian Forces appear to making gains in the kharkiv region. Russias former Defence MinisterSergei Shoigu whos with President Putin on his visit to china has told state tv that russia has launched an � Offensive Operation in all directions� , adding that � it� s going pretty well�. 0ur kyiv correspondent James Waterhouse reports. Not your usual traffic jam in russia� s belgorod region, as a Rocket Launcher pulls over to pourfire into neighbouring ukraine, causing panic across the border. What do you need to take . Let� s move quicker, let� s go, says this police officer. The russians are using new tactics here constant Ground Assaults and relentless air strikes, although not all bombs go off. Now ukrainian troops are withdrawing from some positions near the border. For the first time in 18 months, this war is no longer a grinding stalemate. Russia has momentum, and that is fuelling a sense of diplomatic urgency here in kyiv. A two day visit by america� s secretary of state, antony blinken, ended with tributes to ukraine� s war dead and another 2 billion to arm those still fighting. We� re rushing ammunition, armoured vehicles, missiles, air defences, rushing them to get to the front lines, to protect soldiers, to protect civilians. And on air defences, as dmytro said, this is, of course, a top priority. In moscow with his new Defence Minister, a confident sounding Vladimir Putin announced more funding for a war he thinks he� s winning. Translation all Enemy Counterattacks were repelled. 0ur troops are improving in all positions, in all directions, every day. And here are the consequences kherson in the south, like so many cities and towns across ukraine, is becoming increasingly uninhabitable. Nowhere is immune to moscow� s desire to conquer its neighbour. James waterhouse, bbc news, kyiv. Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. Children in the uk have been telling the bbc how the Housing Crisis has been affecting their mental health. Newsround has heard from children who have had to live in mouldy, cockroach infested properties, or having to pack up and leave their homes at short notice, moving several times a year, far away from their school and friends. Here is their report. Grace lives with her mum on the south coast of england. They became homeless when their landlord decided to sell their home, meaning they had to move out. They couldn� t afford rent in their local area so had to apply for homelessness with the local council. After becoming homeless, grace and her mum were moved into a hotel and then a series of temporary accommodations. Then we got these little bugs, like, crawling in our bathroom near our toothbrushes. I did not have a clue what i was. And then i wasjust relaxing in bed, a cockroach was on the duvet. That is on my bed. Its not a joke any more. Ive had enough. Shouldnt be having to live like this. That really did make me feel upset. Just the word cockroaches now gives me, like, shivers down my spine. You know how you bite your nails . I kind of did that but i scratched them instead, so it got really bad and it started to cut my hands. I� ve got minion nails on. Oh, yeah i can see the minion. So, yeah, i can see that its clearly, like, healing a lot now. You think you� re going to wake up in your old house, but then you end up waking up here. Yeah, so. It� s different. Do you know how long that you� re going to be living here for . I don� t know. I think me and my mum don� t mind because we want a forever home, and how long it takes, it takes. Theres been about a 70 rise in. Children in temporary accommodation over the last ten years. What that ultimately means is it has a huge, huge impact on childrens mental health. It feels like children are hidden. We dont want to hear childrens voices. Were in a time that really| we shouldnt be in the uk. You know, we always say we just want our children to be safe, healthy and educated. Every child deserves a home. I� m in manchester to meet alice. She lives with her mum and older sister. A year ago, life changed for alice when she became homeless. We came home from school and my mum told me that we� ve got to start packing, we� ve got to leave tomorrow. I was like, all right, it should be fine. Just moving, i� ve done it before. Then we moved and it was totally different than i would think. We moved into a b b. It wasn� t nice. There was mould on the walls. The walls were damp. I would have to share a bed with my mum. I would start having Panic Attacks because it� s, like, i� m too used to being in that room and i don� t have anywhere else to go. So, then we got moved here. So, you� ve moved five times in less than a year . Yeah. That must have affected your school life. Obviously, we don� t live that close from where our school is. I� ve got to wake up early so i can get there on time and i don� t miss anything. You can� t do after school clubs at school because it would just take too much time to keep going there and back. The way i� m living is different to everyone else. You go from one really good part of your life and then it just goes really bad. For now, alice is happy to be in a safe place with more room for her and her family. But there are over 100,000 children across the uk who are affected by homelessness and many have had to live in poor conditions. When you were younger, safia, you� ve experienced homelessness. What was it like for you . I moved a few times into houses that were not affordable. Because of that, i had to move again and again. They werent good. Like, one of them, for example, had a tiny bedroom and there would constantly be, like, mice and everything coming in. It was horrible. Can you tell me why you� re so passionate about helping people . Im passionate about helping people with housing because ive gone through it as a baby and a young child. I know what it feels like to not, like, have a decent house to live in. Do you feel happy where you live now, to call it home . Yeah, cos im not moving all the time and everything and just staying in one place. While grace and alice continue their search for a permanent home, they still have hope for the future. What change do you want to see being made to help other kids in your situation, grace . Well, i think the rentjust needs to go a bit down. Houses to not be as expensive. Places where people can afford it, no matter what job they have. What advice would you give to any other kids your age that are going through the same thing . I would just wish that all voices would be heard as well. People think that we dont understand, but when youve been through Something Like this, you do understand, you understand everything around you. You can get through this and that you� re not alone. You can always talk to someone about it. Im looking forward to getting my own back garden and i can play outside. I can get some new pets. Just somewhere that feels like home. Let� s speak to newsround reporter shanequa paris. Thank you forjoining us here. Really interesting seeing the report. We often hearfrom really interesting seeing the report. We often hear from adults who have been affected by homelessness but don� t hear so much from the children. What did you take away from speaking to those fantastic children you spoke to . They were so brave, so inspirational. We often hearfrom adults over time but not from the kids, and the kids of the ones that are going through it, because the number has risen so at the moment it is over 145,000 Homeless Children that are living in temporary accommodations in the uk. There are so many kids that are struggling. I think for me the biggest point to take is how resilient they are and the fact that they just want to be kids. When i was speaking to alice, she loves Billie Eilish and she loves to play instruments. Those are the things that she hadn� t really been able to enjoy or explore, because she is focused on being homeless and she doesn� t have any room to play her instruments because sometimes she has had to share a b b or sometimes a room with just her mum and herand her or sometimes a room with just her mum and her and her mum share the same bed so they don� t have the luxury of just same bed so they don� t have the luxury ofjust being a kid for being able to play outside with their friends because they have moved to a completely different area. They don� t know where the local shops are, so they are just struggling to have that normal kid life that every child deserves to have. It have that normal kid life that every child deserves to have. Child deserves to have. It sounds like on some child deserves to have. It sounds like on some of child deserves to have. It sounds like on some of the child deserves to have.

It has been really bad. As grace mentioned, when it substandard. It has been really bad. As grace mentioned, when it comesj substandard. It has been really bad. I as grace mentioned, when it comes to the cockroaches, at one point when she was in bed, a cockroach actually rolled on top of her duvet. Something like that, no one really likes creepy crawlies, but if you� re struggling with homelessness and then as a kid you have cockroaches crawling on your bed, it is an unimaginable experience that i have been going through and sometimes they have moved into places where there is a lot of damp, there is mould, sometimes it smells really bad, and ijust want to mould, sometimes it smells really bad, and i just want to watch tv, play with their friends and their toys, but they are living in these really dire homes.

I think what was really nice, when we went out to the campaign in london, there was one boy, and he spoke to us in a documentary and he mentioned that he and his six siblings, they all had to live in a two bedroom accommodation when they remain homeless and the work that they were doing help them move into another place where they had more room and better accommodation so it is really nice hearing positive stories that have come from it. Even at one point we went to portsmouth, and basically they have a play scheme there and it is for kids that are struggling with homelessness. It was really lovely and so heart warming that they have these schemes available, for kids that are in the same, similar circumstances but they have a shared experience and feel, not embarrassed.

Yesterday we showed you the First Official portrait of king charles since his coronation depicting the king on canvas, in the uniform of the welsh guards. From friday visitors to Buckingham Palace will have the chance to see one of the biggest collections of images from the royal families archive, collated over more than 150 years. 0ur royal correspondent Daniela Relph has been taking a look. Through the gallery doors, the faces of royalty loom large. Some of the photos are familiar, here the andy warhol print of the late queen from 1985. But many capture something more intimate. This photo was kept private until now. Royal mothers with their newborn babies, the queen, princess margaret, Princess Alexandra and the duchess of kent. The photo was taken in 1964 as a thank you to the doctor who delivered the children. And then the more recent moments. These are all the work of photographer hugo barnard, whose portfolio includes the king� s coronation and the wedding of the prince and princess of wales. There was one picture which i discussed with them, which i hoped we might do, which was the picture of Prince William and catherine with all the bridesmaids. I call it the tumble, and we had three minutes to do it, but three minutes isn� t very long to take a portrait. And the reason why i mention that is because all the expressions and all the movements and all the positions are very spontaneous. They� re from the people. They� re not directed by me. And i think that has to come from a certain amount of trust going both ways. And in a way, it was probably the most successful picture for me of that day. So it crosses the border between formal and informal. The retouching of portraits was commonplace from the earliest prints to make them look as good as possible. Some images show the photographer� s annotations. This picture of the late queen and Prince Philip includes notes which say background must be kept light and please do not cut. The photographer was Antony Armstrong jones, who later married the queen� s sister, princess margaret, and regularly photographed his wife. The exhibition has been ten years in the planning and everyone involved has some favourites. Tell us why you like this image of the late queen so much. I think its very strong graphically, we have a very stark, pale background and the sitter is portrayed in a very simple woollen admirals cloak. And also she is not wearing any of the traditional royal trappings, such as tiaras or important jewellery, insignia and so on. And i think that she comes through as really kind of the woman behind the the marquee. There is bold, Eye Catching Imagery and sitting amongst them, some more off guard shots. Contact sheets from 1980, the queen and her sister laughing and chatting during a shoot. And in some sections, paintings and photos sit close to one another. This picture from 1864 of alexandra, the princess of wales, influenced the look and mood of this photo from 2021. To mark the 40th birthday of the current princess. The collection is a reminder of the power of photography over the past hundred years to shape Public Perception of the royal family. Daniella ralph, bbc news. It� s almost 50 years since the hapless hotelier basil fawlty made his Television Debut in the hit bbc series, which would go on to be voted the best British Programme of all time. Now the show� s lead actor john cleese has adapted the series to create a new two hour Stage Performance with some tweaks, to reflect changing tastes in comedy. Ellie price has more. This smack on head is it the funniest british sitcom of all time . Perhaps its a dream. They only made 12 half hour episodes of fawlty towers, leaving audiences wanting more. And at the Apollo Theatre last night, that� s what they got. I� m afraid most of the people we get in here don� t understand a bordeaux from a claret. A bordeaux is a claret. The play is based on three of the most loved tv episodes. Im afraid this is corked. I just uncorked it. Didn� t you see me . The hotel inspectors. This is not funny who won the the bloody war anyway . . . The germans, and another episode called communication problems. Well, may i ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay Hotel bedroom window . Sydney opera house, perhaps . The Hanging Gardens of babylon . Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically . Dont be silly. Ijust enjoyed your performance very, very much. Thank you so much. John cleese isn� t in it this time, but he� s written this Stage Adaptation and has been on hand to offer his help and support to the next generation basil. If you could do itjust a little bit. Better . Better . Think you could do it better . Better . Yeah. And funny. Of course. So does he mind not performing . People assume it� s going to be odd, but it isn� t really. I think in some strange way, i kind of separate myself into sort of performer and writer. When i� m looking at other people doing the lines, i laugh again and again. Honking laugh basil . Ellie price, bbc news. Now it� s time for a look at the weather with carol. Hello again. Low pressure has been in charge of our weather as we� ve gone through this week, and today, once again, it� s going to do the same. In fact, for the next few days, we are looking at spells of warm sunshine. But there� ll be some rain around, some heavy showers which have the potential to be thundery. So this is the low pressure driving our weather. We� ve got this Weather Front wrapped all the way around it and, currently, it� s producing some rain. Rain especially across parts of the south east, east anglia, into the midlands. And it� s Drifting Westwards into wales through the day. Now, to the south of that, we� re looking at some bright spells, some sunshine, but heavy showers. To the north of it, a lot of dry weather, a fair bit of sunshine, but you could still catch the Odd Sharp Shower across north west england, in through parts of Northern Ireland and western scotland. Temperatures, widely, 13 to about 20, 21 degrees. But we could well see 23 or 24 somewhere in the highlands. Now, through this evening and overnight, the rain will continue to push through wales and clear. More low cloud, mist and murk will come in from the north sea and we� ll have some clear skies. So here, too, you could see some patchy fog form. Temperatures falling away, between seven and about ten degrees. So for some, slightly lower than last night. So a fresher start to the day tomorrow. Tomorrow, essentially, is going to be a day of sunshine and some showers. Not all of us, of course, will see the showers. And at times, we� ll have some haar and also some fret coming in from the north sea just lapping onshore. Temperatures tomorrow, not too dissimilar to today. Again, we could see a 23 somewhere in the highlands, 21 in london, 22 in glasgow. So then as we head on into saturday, well, we� ve got rain coming into the south, and through the day, that� s going to be Drifting Westwards. It will turn more showery, but it could still be heavy, with some thunder in it. Further north, we� re looking at some brighter skies. Still some low cloud, mist and murk coming in from the north sea. Some sunshine as well. Temperatures 12 to about 22 degrees. Then as we move on into sunday, we� ve got more of a north easterly flow and that� s going to drag in more low cloud, mist and murk from the north sea. But it will be largely dry. You could catch the odd shower across Southern England at times. There� ll be some sunshine as well. And these are our temperatures. So coming down in the north west. We� re looking at a range, 11 to 20. Live from london, this is bbc news. Local media are reporting that police have charged a man with the Attempted Murder of slovakian Prime Minister robert fico, who� s in a Serious Condition after being shot. President putin is given a red carpet welcome on his state visit to china and signs a joint declaration with president xi, outlining the two countries� strategic alliance.
