Patients whose cancer was thought to be incurable have seen significant improvements in life expectancy after participating in a new clinical trial at the Beatson oncology center the patients whose cancer had spread to other parts of the body were given an aggressive form of precision radiation therapy Here's our health correspondent Lisa Somers this Phase 2 trial involved 1000 patients randomly chosen from cancer centers in Scotland Canada the Netherlands and the street in each case the patients had cancers that had previously been treated but returned in a limited number of places in the body they were given what's called stereotactic ablative radiotherapy which gives a substantially higher dose of radiation to the chamber site and can kill the lesions the results sure the treatment Q.

Radio Scott the travel chilly and smart is here with all the weather details and a very warm and humid day ahead we still have some rain to start the day over the Western and Northern Isles but this will clear away to the north through the morning leaving dry conditions across the country and cloud will fin and break through the day allowing plenty of warm sunshine many places will see temperatures in the mid twenty's peaking at $26.00 or $27.00 in the Northeast Orkney in Shetland during the 20 Celsius mark and south westerly winds still brisket 1st in the Northwest easing down through the day that's the forecast you're listening to Good Morning Scotland with Haley Miller in Glasgow and getting Robertson here on College Green where in the shadows of the Houses of Parliament just hours away from finding out who will succeed to reason me Jeremy Hunt on the front line of Boris Johnson whoever wins will take office with a majority of 2 and face a growing rump of rebels intent on making life very difficult for the new prime minister here Sir Alan Duncan who quit as a Foreign Office minister yesterday in protest against a possible Mr Johnson victory very great concerns that he flies by the seat of his pants and all of it sort of ramshackle but there's no personal animosity of any sort I just think he's going to go smack into a crisis of government the former secretary Dominic Robb disagrees Boris Johnson the big 3 things above which will change the dynamic 1st of all absolute resolve as prime minister is the leader of this country that will lead by the end of October and that's been missing here restore cabinet collective responsibility so we've got a united team above all inject a bit of optimism into this enterprise we embarked on well it's Peter Westminster correspondent David Porter David it seems in recent years we've sat here at Westminster on many a morning talking about the momentous political events to come but a new prime minister was a big day it certainly is because it is the transfer of power and it is the transfer of power because one prime minister to resign may. Still Prime Minister she holds a final cabinet meeting today is having to leave because she has failed to deliver brags that it is simple as that prime ministership will be judged on that the new prime minister Boris Johnson we all think. Has got to try and deliver breaks it in some kind of way that can not only heal his own party where perhaps more importantly take the U.K. With him. We have said many occasions sitting here that these are momentous political times it is and it could actually get more momentous as the days and weeks there is no certainty how this is going to pan out that is not a cop out it is I think a recognition of the various political forces that are moving we heard from around Duncan they're saying that he doubts that Boris Johnson may be able to lead ministration there are so many moving parts in this at the moment that who knows we may be back in the or so with the general election because the reality is tourism is going because she couldn't deliver bricks at Boris Johnson has talked about optimism about a can do attitude but we don't really have a lot of detail either from him or Jeremy Hunt as to exactly how they would do things that differently from you know we don't and it is all change over the next 24 hours but also it is no change at all because the parliamentary arithmetic is still the same if anything it is getting more difficult for the new Conservative leader with someone having the wrong from them the possibility of a by election the Conservatives could lose so tight political arithmetic is going to get even tighter for the government and that's before we even talk about Tory M.P.'s who may not like what they think Boris Johnson could and would do a may decide one way or another to withhold their support OK We'll talk more in just a moment of course the conservative leadership campaign isn't the only leader a vote at Westminster yesterday just once and became the new leader of the Liberal Democrats beating Ed Davey in the. Took place so Vince Cable just became the 1st woman to assume the role least important your M.P. Told a gathering of the party faithful she would do whatever it takes to stop breaks it but what the voters in our constituency think of for victory our political editor Brian Taylor been beating some and we're going to do well I mean she seems to be in the past she's been proactivity in the school gates and consequently puts and doing things the local community services are put into here she's always doing so my role has gotten flyers through the out books or she's always there if you've got curious if you're local She will take off to give it to a different church or Oh I would hope she would do if she's going to be the same then that's that remains very well the up and go. To give us something different you know leader. Who went and oh. Well just once and is here with us now good morning John congratulations on your victory Good morning and thank you you say you will do whatever it takes to stop breaks up what does it take well the best way to stop breaks it is through a people's vote and that means assembling a majority in parliament most likely when we return in September to vote through people's votes and that needs some clever parliamentary techniques to take control of the order paper and to be able to pass motions or or bills in a similar way to. The New Deal was averted in March and the extension was secured and you know I think with the threat with the expression from some conservatives particularly ministers who had not previously supported a people's vote but who are no resigning from the government very much not not liking the approach then I think there is a real prospect was delivering a business general election potentially more likely than a people's fault I can see is in circumstances where that might happen I I'm not convinced that it that it gets us to a definitive resolution on the issue of breaks that but obviously politics is very volatile at the moment and. Nobody whether it's you know people commentating or or working in politics knows exactly what is going to happen I mean as from a liberal Democrat perspective what's absolutely clear is that we will be doing everything we can to stop but the reality is that if there is a general election when you've talked about being a candidate for prime minister but there are no opinion polls that are actually putting you anywhere near dining street all of them well the half but not if you look back over the last month then there was to have more than a 100 seats at least there's been no opinion polls suggest that you'll win more than hundreds if that is the house there is a You Gov poll that showed that we could get 30 percent of the vote and come top in a general election so recognized So if you know of individual polls but you know when we've got 4 parties all hovering around the 20 percent mark then this is very very volatile in politics and anything could happen and and the rules of politics are being rewritten you know all of these things that people have held to be true and then you know Jeremy Corbin wasn't expected to become leader of the Labor Party don't chant wasn't expected to become president United States so we're living in political times were unexpected things happen and that's why I put no limit on my ambition for them and what it tells us is that if there were to be an election there's every chance we might have a hung parliament so could you do a deal with a total Well if we have an election I'm going to be arguing to be the prime minister and to have a Liberal Democrat government and when we've got all the choice on offer for people between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbett you know I think there are millions of people in this country who think that is not good enough that Britain deserves better country to deal with a large audience and not with Boris Johnson upset you know I've been I've been crystal clear that we you know breaks it is fundamental in terms of a disagreement in terms of our liberal Democrat internationalist principles that we should be working with all the countries over others just like a leader. Like we have got both both the Labor parties at the moment led by breakfast hears we've got the breaks a party led by. Except here the Liberal Democrats are offering something genuinely different and that's why thousands of people are joining us if it isn't your big problem that actually you are associated with that coalition government you were part of that government that said yes to a stat or 2 and that's could be a difficult one for you to shrug off isn't it well why I've been very clear that while we achieved a lot of good things in coalition we took people on low pay out of paying income taxes same sex marriage more money for purpose pupils in schools we achieved a lot of good but we didn't get everything right apps recognise that and so the title colleges for sanity Well I have apologized for some of the things that we got wrong and we paid a price for that but you know we're talking about something that was No 5 years ago what we're looking at is the country as it is now and what future we're going to have is that to be a Boris Johnson future is not going to be a journey Corben future that choice is nor couldn't of choice for the people in Britain and that's why the Liberal Democrat alternative is is drawing more and more people and that's why it's important to understand the which of these leaders which potential leaders that you would propose. I reject the suggestion that for a general election that has not even yet been called Let alone a campaign that has been run that we should make the assumption of who is going to win such an election in Scotland if you are against the idea of Breck's it are you not better voting for the S.N.P. No absolutely not the the best way to oppose brakes is to vote for the party that has been from the very beginning consistently in a principled way standing up for remain and I welcome and I work with the S.N.P. On the people's vote campaign but we did take a long time to get there they did argue for delivering brags that they are $0.20 to respecting the outcome but some would say your party just hasn't done well you know we've we've been absolutely consistent that we think our best future is in the European Union. You know one of our key principles of working with other countries it is how we will best gauge in this globalized world that we face and I'm not clear apologize for standing up for what I believe to be right I think that's a strength in in politicians not a weakness and so I will work with others where we agree to deliver that goal but if there is absolutely no question the Liberal Democrats have been the strongest party of remain actually in Scotland most people want Scotland to be in the U.K. And the U.K. To be in the E.U. And the Liberal Democrats are the only party that is arguing for that position and if you get that 2nd referendum the people's vote as it's called on the outcome is the same do you respect the woman the way that you haven't respected the last one I will certainly if we have a vote that is a specific breaks that is put to the people if that is voted for I will slightly respect but that is what people want at the moment I've got no call threatens that there is a majority across the country for any specific form of rights and that's why the break the deal has to be put to the people for a final say on so it's not a deal versus remain as far as you're comes up slightly right and in terms of your support then for a 2nd referendum in many in Scotland to see that as being hypocritical when you don't support the idea of allowing people another say on Scottish independence Well I do not believe in Scottish independence I believe that our best future is within the United Kingdom for many of the same reasons why I believe the U.K. Is best off within the European Union but if you're allowing people another say on Europe why not on over say on independence given that as the S.N.P. Would say the circumstances have changed markedly we had a very strong result in 2014 against a specific independence proposal because to the S. And P's credit Lee did set a white paper of how the envisaged independence looking and that was that was comprehensively rejected by the Scottish people in 2014 I can. Other difference is that people who are on bikes there is a way out of a current mess a crisis chaos in our politics which is stopping us from moving on and addressing the real issues that our country faces so there is actually a way out of chaos if you were to have an independent referendum in Scotland that is layering kill from top of the already volatile and difficult situation you don't understand the many S.N.P. Supporters who see the way out of chaos is being another independence referendum I understand that the people that genuinely hold that view I would gently say we've seen how difficult breaking up is to do this is what it looks like trying to unpick a union of 40 years and how difficult is trying to wrench Scotland the U.K. From a 300 year union would be so much more difficult so the suggestion that that would not lead to huge difficulty and. Chaotic scenes you know good it would be absolutely. Huge disruptive for our economy for a public services and so much energy would have to be spent on that instead of addressing the big issues that we face so your ambition is to be prime minister just to be clear if we have a selection if you do become prime minister you would say no to granting the power for another independence referendum that would be that there is there is no mandate to have that the S.N.P. Have put forward this idea of 2 subsequent elections and they have lost seats and lost votes so so I minister today would say no yes so I'm confident this is not what people in Scotland want people in Scotland want to have skeletons in the U.K. And the U.K. In the E.U. And that's what the Liberal Democrats are arguing for and that's what as leader of the Liberal Democrats I'm going to do everything in my power to deliver just once and thank you very much indeed for coming to speak to us this morning here on College Green where the sun is is beating down it might be time to get the sun glasses I think David Porter is still with us. As we were saying the reality for the new prime minister is life is going to be very difficult and we've got the new leader of the Liberal Democrats we've got the Labor Party talking about potentially votes of no confidence the opposition parties are going to do everything they can to make things very difficult for the new prime minister to oh yes there's i'm there is going to be a honeymoon period for Boris Johnson if it is he as we all think it is going to be but it is probably going to be hours not days or weeks of the parliament here it's like it's very difficult for him the opposition parties will be doing their damnedest to make life difficult for him they may not call of voter confidence immediately but they've made let it be known that when we come back in September there could well be a vote in confidence in him and his administration because they will probably by then get some indication of the way things are going and indeed if he is going to pursue a new do you breaks it. It is incredibly volatile there are a lot of moving parts but this is not going to be someone who moves into 10 Downing Street thinking I have a period to bed myself and I've got that safety blanket of a good parliamentary majority that is not the case with Bush jobs and how closely are those opposition parties working David we have they're about the fundamental disagreement between the Lib Dems and the S.N.P. On the issue of independence but are they willing to say things like Saeed when it comes to the issue of BRACKS I think is the OK so my enemy's enemy is my friend type thing opposition parties duty is to oppose the government of the day of whatever political nature they might be there is far more talking that goes on Westminster between the opposition parties and I know that Jeremy Corbyn speed would have been speaking to him for it's people will be speaking to Jews for instance people about the way that they feel that they can prosecute their opposition to the Conservative Party they will have to make some pretty. Big decisions as well that if they decide to push for a vote of confidence it will come in German name as the leader of the opposition because they know that would be taken they then have to decide whether they fall in behind that. And whether they feel that they can get some more conservatives on board so yes there are a lot of conversations that take place is pretty feeble here at Westminster because it's the weather is good not normally as good as it is now there are lots of people on the terrace of the House of Commons who may be drinking more than the old shanties and things like that in the evening it's important to stay hydrated very it's very very important this is on stilts the moment a great deal of conversation going on probably more heat than light but who knows over the next days and weeks it may become a little bit clearer it may not. OK David more from you a little later I should just tell you that that announcement that the conservative leadership is expected to arrive and about quarter to 12 These things often do slip just slightly but we will be bringing that to you live here on B.B.C.

They never give you all go it's already fastest in the heats the smartening that goal of a new world record in the 50 meters that he was speaking about is yet more evidence that P.T.

Labor's ruling body has to consider proposals put forward by Jeremy Corbyn to speed up the way it deals with complaints of anti Semitism last night the shadow cabinet back the plans but said it also wanted independent oversight Busta Corben told Abraham P's the position of anti Semitism had to be confronted the M.P. Ruth Smith who was given police protection after receiving the Semitic abuse said she wasn't impressed but I think it was yet another disappointing meeting where I'm really not sure the leadership of the Labor Party understand quite how distressing anti-Semitism and it is in the party and while this resolve it and I know we get 3 in.

Digital radio F.M. Medium wave B.B.C. Sons B.B.C. Radio Scotland You're listening to Good Morning Scotland 24 minutes to 9 Eyes so we will know the next state Tory leader and prime minister before lunchtime today so how is the rest of Europe viewing the prospect of a new incumbent at number 10 with the odds favoring Boris Johnson closing in what does that mean in terms of bricks and negotiations and the run up to the hollowing deadline we're joined now by Catherine Barnard who's professor of European Union law with the think tank the U.K. In a changing Europe Good morning to you good morning Catherine you've just returned from Luxembourg I believe has your What's the mood like over there looking forward to the announcement this morning I think the view is with quite a lot of caution and wariness certainly in amongst the E.U. Institutions they do remember Boris Johnson's time as a journalist in Brussels when some of the stories took on a fairly good here too and I think they are deeply concerned that said they know he's a man of charisma he can bring people with him and it may be that they do need some sort of reset as an excuse to have a really really good think about what an earth are going to do about the British problem yeah but nonetheless some of his comments in the past and even through the leadership campaign have been fairly controversial we had the E.U. Being blamed for E.U. Regulations and kippers recently comparing the E.U. Use. To those of hecklers you know what I mean what do people make of of the fact that he comes out with things like that and he is it seems on the verge of being Prime Minister I think there is deep concern and I think people on this side of the channel forget that people on the channel read the British press. Yes and watch the British news and they take it all very literally and date and so there is a real concern about who has been elected on the other hand they know that we need a new prime minister Boris Johnson is the man who will command as far as we can tell significant support among the conservative party and he's a man they're going to have to deal with so they can have to do a certain amount of swallowing of their concerns and just get on with doing some rigorous actions with and under all what is the what is your you know thinking on negotiations I mean how much room is there from a negotiation is there is there anything in which share you know the E.U. Might give some ground on well I think it if you remember interest amaze withdrawal deal that the article 50 agreement there were 3 big ticket items and there is very little wriggle room on at least 2 of them one is a citizens' rights on which actually both sides pretty much agree the 2nd is the money and the money actually is gone rather quietly member is going to be the big fight at the summer and in fact it wasn't and then the 3rd is an old man border which of course an old and a backstop not someone that's really going to be difficult to resolve however I think there is some wriggle room there about possibly having some sort of time limit on the backstop Yes It undermines the argument that it's an insurance policy we don't want. A time limit on your insurance policy but on the other hand if you had quite a long time limit 10 years I mean 10 years is a long time in politics the other possibility is whether some sort of more rebuffed exit close from the backstop because there is a paradox that there's an exit close from the E.U. Agreements as a whole that there is no exit closer in the backstop and so there might be a bit of margin for room there it may be that the E.U. Do dig their heels in but on the other hand Ireland. It's going to be almost as badly affected by G.O.P. Exit as the U.K. And so on and really I think is going to be the key player here and if they agree to some sort of shift in their position then it may be that the Brussels goes with them and I mean either way I mean the new prime minister is going to have to take on quite a I had a job in terms of repairing diplomatic relations in Europe surely. I think that's right but actually I don't think that will be his 1st line of it attacks I think the 1st line of attack will be indeed attack to show that we're not a nation to be messed with and so I think what you'll see is quite a lot more aggressive language quite a lot more talk about no deal because that's the way they are convinced that conservative part you convince they will get more concessions out of Brussels and there is not likely to achieve those concessions so some people say that the vote last week on the amendment to the Northern Ireland bill has actually hindered rather than helped the British cause if if you believe that because it's trying to go state a better deal because the E.U. Will think that actually Parliament will step in to stop the no deal bricks it anyway and as we know even that's not clear because the mechanism by which Parliament can intervene to stop the new job or exit is far from clear in 2 to OK thank you very much for your thoughts this morning that was Catherine Barnard professor of European Union law with a think tank the U.K. In a changing Europe it's coming up to 18 minutes to 9 so we're expecting the results of the Tory leadership around about a quarter to 12 your given life here on B.B.C. Radio Scotland Calum Adonal of course on the air from 9 he's here now to tell us what he's up to on the phone into morning hello hello hello again you know sometimes I actually maybe a little bit too much of a moment that quite unbearable make the most of us what we could get away Spencer of course as we expect the announcement of the new Conservative leader a bit later on so we'll keep you up to. With that you will hear it live with us it will start though at 9 o'clock with our fall in this morning and we are chatting about Celtic striker league Griffiths who said said this week the opening up and talking can save lives of course Leigh Griffiths had several months so he's been struggling with depression and he's experiencing everyone else other people to come forward to speak out and to get help basically So we're asking what more can we do to support people who are struggling with their mental health as you can call right now in fact the phone lines are open all wait all week 590 to 95 to blow if that's you if you've got experience of helping somebody or being helped by somebody I would love to hear from you. As well we've got our interior design surgery the doors are open for any questions in fact Boris Johnson and Jeremy hope would do well to listen to that when the voters need a new better we haven't LOL Rickly all the jokes write themselves are well know it's true how do you. Know if he has no furniture or something to do with his. Failing relationship yes although with his former partner there he's asking for. It well good luck to him and we'll also be doing our name the place quiz which always rings red hot all the way through the day as well so that's coming up from 9 OK Callum is here in about 17 minutes time now let's take a trip down memory lane back to the 1980 S. . Where. The future. If you want to was with the lady is not our turn I just. Said it before and I'll say it again. Life moves pretty fast you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss. Oh yeah text me back the National Library of Scotland is going back in time to celebrate everything the age of shoulder pads and New Romantics have to offer but it's not just an excuse to talk about fashion it's a chance to look at the history the technology and the film moments and some up the decade a multimedia retrospective is taking place in Glasgow and Edinburgh and to tell us more we're joined by Graeme holy who's head of General collections Good morning to Graeme morning good morning are you a child of the eighty's. Yes born in 74 so I grew up during the whole decade OK So I mean you are but your beloved then where US is this is the decade that you'd like to read and remember. I was looking forward to it before I started and now I was so glad I did it because it's been a total trip down memory lane and was on covers most of the news to go on as well so it's been a blast. And what was the wealthy inspiration for it is it just that you know people like yourself have sort of or of an age now I were you're you know looking back and there does seem to be a decade which is starting to influence you know things no in 2019 again. Well it started about 2 years ago when we were doing the forward planning for our exhibitions looking at the we also look on the 1st 3 years and so when it got to those going through my mind thinking about what happened in years ending in a 9 and I got to 79 and there was a list of things like the election the market so the invasion of Afghanistan the Iranian revolution these huge big geopolitical things and then I got to $89.00 and the far right there's a whole pile of stuff that was well like the fall of the Berlin Wall and the invention the World Wide Web the massive sea changes which have affected our lives so we decided to do a 10 year retrospective bookended by the gift $79.89 under some Look at 80 sandwich in the middle OK I'm gay and so this is all going on where at the Kelvin whole. This week it's telling holds a week of activities which is mixing with ingredients of radio computers. Cell marketed sports and so all of that. In. First of all just in Edinburgh. Treasures case exhibition of printed books. From the a decade as well but the the thing really all started this battle in May at the start of the launch the website which has got a whole pile of laundry Ses analysis about the ages along with some stolen eighty's film archives I'm sure a bring back plenty of memories for us all Graeme thanks very much Graeme Hawley there who's head of the general collections behind that exhibition It's 30 minutes tonight choose the morning's news headlines Boris Johnson is expected to be confirmed as a new conservative leader today and will become prime minister of tomorrow will speak to the former attorney general Dominic Grieve about that in just a moment across party group of M.P.'s and peers and said it's planning legal action in Edinburgh to prevent parliament being closed in the run up to bricks that researchers find new evidence that strains of malaria are becoming resistant to treatment. Helen is now and Mary Watson is the latest tale of the A 7613 bridge of we are closed at the moment but there's been an accident and traffic is being diverted not sure which direction the accident is in the center that was looking closed and you're being diverted away from it that is to Laura for the update line it should work on the M 74 both ways but looking slow north by and through the rate interchange coming along from Larkhall that's junction 7 maybe 15 minutes of a delay or so and on the M 8 a span Whitburn junction 4 to Livingston junction 3 is looking still why spend on the Glasgow stretch from 13 proven to 17 Great Western Road maybe up to 10 minutes here that's B.B.C. Radio Scott the travel so we're just a couple of hours away from knowing who the new Conservative leader will. B M whether it's bogus Johnson or Jeremy Hunt will be installed as prime minister tomorrow Conservative M.P. Dominic Grieve is here with us Westminster is there any doubt that it will be Boris Johnson to believe that we have to wait and see what the result is you can never be certain of anything but on the face of it it seems very likely that Boris Johnson will get the leadership of the party and become prime minister tomorrow and other than him moving into don't excrete into Reason me moving out as far as Bracks that is concerned does anything change it doesn't change the problems facing a Prime Minister in relation to getting a satisfactory deal and taking us out of the E.U. . Changes that Boris Johnson like to reason appears to be willing to contemplate leaving with no deal of any kind of tool and says that he will do that on the 31st of October if he hasn't obtained a deal and that's a very high risk strategy because there are clearly a substantial number of conservative members of Parliament including myself for whom this is an acceptable proposal and if he persists with it and it becomes clear that that is the risk that he's prepared to run then I don't think is administration is going to survive just on the move we've heard from a power David cork and others saying that they will resign if you win I presume that they will be joining you in the back benches in this opposition so will vats faction of the Conservative Party feel and. I think that the results of last week's vote on the. Vote using the Northern Ireland bill to do it was a pretty clear sign of the sorts of numbers who are willing to rebel on this issue of course things may change he may be able to persuade people that he has a strategy which is viable and one of the problems is that the closer we get to the 31st of October the greater the risk that even if his administration were to full a month we might still have a crush outbreaks in the middle of a general election campaign so the tension is going to rise the closer we get to the 31st of October but all I would hope for is that he has listened or will be listening to the very clear messages that are coming across and he will desist from a policy that in my view is going to take him to catastrophe will he not be able to say that he has listened to the Tory membership they have listened to him talking about do or die leave me and they have backed him if you were ends up winning I think that's to misunderstand Democratic politics I have every respect for the Conservative Party membership but the total membership is not point to 5 percent of the electorate the numbers. You are probably going to vote for him again to be under naught point 2 of the electorate that cannot dictate what is in the national interest quite apart from anything else we don't get elected as conservative members of parliament without the support of many tens of thousands indeed millions of people who are not conservative party members and if you're going to mount a campaign or stop have a policy which is based on what a narrow section of your membership want and it is in fact at variance with what the national interest clearly requires you're going to run into trouble we mentioned there in the headlines as cross party group of M.P.'s and peers planning legal action in Edinburgh to back up that vote in parliament to prevent the Parliament being in essence closed to force through a new deal breaks given your legal background what are the chances of success here I'm not sure what the chance of success on that will be I wouldn't wish to hazard a guess I also think it's probably going to be unnecessary because the consequence of the vote in the north bill last week I think makes purgation as a tool for achieving a no deal Bracks against the wishes of a majority of the House of Commons not completely impossible but almost impossible thank you very much for speaking to us this morning the former attorney general the Conservative M.P. Dominic Grieve for the time to Minutes tonight life football is by. The good Dr you . Should Know person shall for the. Full Year follow Scotland teams in Europe its course. Scored a fair one and the Scottish League Cup with sports. Continuing with. The Scottish league sports on tonight from $630.00 on digital radio each one all media weave and online. B.B.C. Radio Scotland listen to Good Morning Scotland I want. The things I don't like about as a Summer is the number of waltz that we usually have there but now a new species never before found in Scotland has been spotted at Loch Lomond by a volunteer who's on a mission to record 500 different types of living creatures the parasitic war Spears larger than your common walls but can be seen in greater numbers south of the border on the line now is the man who made the discovery some Buckton who's a volunteer R.S.P.B. Last lumen Good morning Sam Sam good morning to you CAN YOU HEAR ME Hi you're with elaborate good stuff tell us about this was Ben Yes a little species called the monster I'm call. It what the parasite called happens and it. Is something it took out 2 centimeters long really striking yellow thing and it's apparently the 1st. The 1st time that story lines breaking up the 1st time it's been you think it's been seen in Scotland Yeah yeah. It's gotten. A narrow Why is it unusual there must be unusual that it would come this far north. Is this is a happening more you finding you know different species here that we wouldn't have in the past. It's quite possible climate change is causing some serious if it's just a range Yeah. Quietly but. Not being as. He was because. I'm not sure we can really make that out Sam I think we'll have to leave it there I'm sorry about the quality of the line there coming up to 5 to 9. And and let say get back to Gary who say I'm College Green waiting for the announcement of the next a Tory leader I'm prime minister later this morning and for a change you're usually freezing aren't you when you're there 1st thing in the morning you're boiling today absolutely it's either hypothermia or it's a sun stroke and I think it's going to be the latter today I do reports are still with us our political correspondent Deborah just take us through the choreography of today right OK we have a prime minister who is still in office that is treason she will be holding her final cabinet meeting within the next half an hour or so of course that is really just going through the motions because every warms. Everyone's interest is going to be what happens a couple of hours later at about quarter to 12 at the Q E 2 center which is probably about a quarter mile away from where we are at the moment we will get the announcement of who is the new Conservative leader and by dint of that the new prime minister now unless there is a political shock of huge proportions everyone is expecting that to be Boris Johnson not Jeremy Hunt conservative activists we've been talking to reckon it could be about $2.00 to $1.00 in favor of Boris Johnson I think what will then happen is that Boris Johnson wore make an acceptance speech and he will want to be very careful. About the proprieties he is not going to be prime minister today he doesn't come become prime minister so tomorrow too it's reason he goes to the palace hands in her resignation and then he is called to the palace and asked by the Queen to form a government so he will want to make sure that the proprieties of the 100 caps that probably means that we will get we will not get announcements officially today or anything like that we may hear some rumors about who is going to get what job but he will want to make sure that he's not being seen to be preemptive and presumptive what we might. Who know was more resignations in the in the vein of silent Duncan yesterday who resigned from the Foreign Office and wanted to in essence challenge the leadership before Boris Johnson became prime minister Yeah I think that that is a very good point we already know that Philip Hammond has said that he will resign if Boris Johnson becomes prime minister he will resign tomorrow after Prime Minister's Question Time he says he's got a letter which he will hunt to to reason very So he will sign before she resigns but yes you we could well find there are a trickle of resignations from the government later today people who now realise the reality and feel that they cannot serve or would not be offered jobs in a Boris Johnson government so yeah it would be wrong I think to think that it will be or is Johnson has been elected Tory leader and then things stay the same I would expect for various parts of government to be a certain number of resignations today it will keep the pot boiling it will keep the drama going to day running into tomorrow which will be another dramatic day the handover of power from one prime minister to another a new prime minister on the steps of Downing Street tomorrow we could it depending on how things go in a few months time be having a 3rd prime minister on the steps of Downing Street I'm not saying that will happen but everything is so fluid everything is so volatile we just heard from Dominic Grieve who believes that there are the numbers there to prevent a new deal breaks it if that was to happen and you had a prime minister who wanted a no deal breakers it was a slap in the face that would be well indeed and what the damage Dominic Grieve tells us is that there's no shortage of people willing to meet like difficult for Mr Jobs no reason may has had the European Research Group who quite frankly have made her life intolerable that's why she is going as prime minister because she could not get them on board she could not deliver the type of brakes that they wanted there will be others on the other. Of the argument some of them very experienced very widely political operators some of them who have been at the very highest levels of government let me put it like that let's be blunt people like Philip and David go you may say well we don't like the new prime minister we are going to do all we can we believe that the what is best for the country may not be the same as what is best for the Conservative Party and may I stress may at some point be willing to vote against the new prime minister OK David thank you very much for that we're going to be back here tomorrow morning of course bringing you not just the results of that leadership election but also looking ahead to what the new prime minister has to deal with and of course the we focus of bridge of that Conservative Party leader and I spent later in the day here on B.B.C. Radio Scotland but that's all from Gary and me for now we hand you over to Colin McDonald thank you both very much have a good day Hello good morning welcome to the program this morning we're going to start by talking about mental health what more can we be doing to support our loved ones or friends or colleagues people that we know who are living with mental health issues called I. 95 on digital radio F.M. Media ways and B.B.C. Sounds B.B.C. Radio Scott. With the B.B.C. News 1st at 9 o'clock here's Linda Sinclair Good morning Theresa May is about to hold her final cabinet meeting as prime minister the name of her replacement bars Johnson are Jeremy Hunt will be announced shortly before midday Sam senior conservatives have said to be unwilling to work under Mr Johnson if you were leaving the E.U. Come watch me at the end of October but the former defense secretary Some may call fallen said he doubted any of them would be self-indulgent enough to bring down the government and the newly elected Liberal Democrat leader Joyce Winston has said her party's door is absolutely open to labor or Conservative M.P.'s who may want to join because. Wants a better alternative but she doubts whether she would work with Jeremy Corp and there is nothing to suggest that Jeremy Corbin can be trusted on breaks that or that he will campaign to remain I mean let's remember in the last referendum he went on holiday for 2 weeks in the middle of it so forgive me for not believing Jeremy Corbin's merely most words on break that he can hardly bring himself to say the words people's vote the Iranian foreign minister has said his country is not seeking confrontation in the Gulf where a British flag ship was seized by a revolutionary guard last week Mohammad Javad Zarif said it was very important for Boris Johnson to understand that wanted normal relations based on mutual respect the Republican congressman John Bacon has criticized the U.S. Secretary of state might point pale for suggesting the U.K. Should take better care of its ships will be modifies as time goes on because I don't think it's the right response it may be Great Britain's lead to response to Great Britain show up there but I think America should stand right by it's about still I and we should work as a team to figure out how we're going to handle this this cannot be you know every man for himself scenario partly is that your duty to do that that's what it's going to get by that little bit later on but 1st of all this morning we want to talk about mental health and this because Celtic's lead Griffiths spoke of media conference following his competitive return against Sarajevo on Wednesday and Champions League qualifying for the help of the Climate Change family and support. You know I would miss and you know look now at some of the funky then there's been a long and difficult but you know I'm sure there's a late and on to this morning we're asking what more can we be doing to support our loved ones our friends our colleagues the people that we know who are living with mental health issues call to wait for life 90 to 95 double 0 we Griffith says that his manager Brendan Rodgers saw what was happening. To him and then stepped in to help have you experienced the same support in your workplace as somebody stepped in and helped you out and he says we need to keep talking as well and it does feel like that we're getting better at that and looking out for each other and being there for one another is that your experience have you helped someone that has someone helped you think advising and giving advice to each other and helping each other and help. Text. 5 plus of course this morning we're keeping an eye to where the Conservative Party will with their new leader a little bit later on this morning if there's any updates will bring them to you bring you the announcement live as well on B.B.C. Radio Scotland in fact that what we're expecting just after our interior design surgery which I don't think is a coincidence surely. Going to be listening to that to see who they want to Number 10 Downing Street but actually of course it's more important that you ask anything that you would like to get booked in for the surgery you can text. Or you can e-mail. Also on the program an anonymous Twitter account. Is what it's called has suggested that they'll be revealing. What sort of reception gay food.
