All good morning. Welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. Our headlines today Face Coverings will be compulsory in shops in england from next the end of next week and anyone refusing to wear one can be fined £100. The duchess of cambridge chats exclusively to breakfast about motherhood and why shes backing a new bbc initiative to support families with young children. In the first few months, there was huge support from midwives and Health Visitors and things but from then onwards, there is a massive gap
then onwards, there is a massive gap then before they start school. As an economic recovery begun . Today we find out how it fared in may and how much ground businesses need to make up. Well be speaking to winners like this parcel Distribution Centre and losers in the current economic climate. A Champions League setback for Manchester United. A 96th minute equaliser keeps them out of the premier leagues top four. When dad accompany Northern Ireland, plenty of cloud elsewhere. Its tuesday the 14th ofjuly. Our top story. Wearing Face Coverings in shops in england will be compulsory from the end of next week with fines of up to £100 for those who fail to do so. Theyre already mandatory on Public Transport in england and in shops in scotland, germany, spain and italy. Heres our political correspondent, jessica parker. Borisjohnsons been seen out and about in a mask in recent days, signalling a change
to come for england. Now, those changes have been confirmed. Face coverings will be mandatory in shops and supermarkets from july 24th. Fail to wear one and you could face a fine of up to £100. It will be enforced by the police. There will be exemptions as there is on Public Transport for under 115 and people with certain disabilities. Wearing a facemask in shops is already mandatory in scotland, and labours accused the uk government of being muddled after some mixed messaging from ministers, and slow to act. We are behind the curve again. There was a delay for lockdown, delay on testing, delay to protect our care homes. Theres confusion over masks. When are we going to get ahead of this virus and this pandemic like so many other countries have done so already . Downing street says the Prime Minister has been clear on the issue, with growing evidence masks can help protect people in enclosed spaces. Businesses may hope that it will also grow confidence so that more shoppers return to the high street. Jessica parker, bbc news. We can get more on this now from our political correspondent, chris mason, whos in westminster. When we were speaking to thejustice secretary yesterday about facemasks, it seems things have moved a bit. Its a little bit like oasis album titles. It was definitely maybe yesterday. Yes, today we will have to wear these things in shops in england. We had michael gove saying no. Robert buckland in this very seat. Saying they should be mandatory perhaps, definitely maybe. And downing street is confirming
yes, they will become compulsory by the tail end of next week. A little bit of delay is that the law can be changed. And the police can enforce this with fine of up to £100, £50 if you this with fine of up to £100, £50 if yu pay this with fine of up to £100, £50 if you pay it straightaway. The hope it will be a bit like on Public Transport, people are willing to comply rather than be forced to comply rather than be forced to comply but its worth pointing out there is a different picture around there is a different picture around the uk, as we been reporting, its mandatory to wear them in shops, in scotland. In wales, a more liberal regime, its not compulsory on Public Transport until a week on monday so a different picture elsewhere around the uk. Lots of places in europe saying absolutely have to wear a Face Covering and all of this, is a report by scientists
out this morning warns about a potential significant uptick in cases of coronavirus next winter when it can potentially coincide with seasonal flu. Real concern about the future which is one reason why getting into the habit of wearing these things right now is seen is so important. Well done on your 0asis album titles. Its a shame you couldnt work be here now into it. Work on that later. The duchess of cambridge has told bbc breakfast there is a massive gap in support given to parents after the first few months of a childs life until they start school. Its something the duchess says she felt too as a new mum. She was speaking as part of the launch of the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative for children aged four and under. I think its really hard hard, so much focus during pigments he, just when you had a baby, is on the physical development of your baby
are due as a mother. What i think is really missing and what i found was missing as well was the support there and how to help there, and social and Emotional Development. How do you interact with a newborn baby . What is it you should be doing . Not perhaps in the first few months, there is a huge amount of support for midwives and Health Visitors and things but from then onwards, you know, there is a massive gap when they start school. Hearing some of the things parents today saying, at the beginning, brian saying his baby has five different cries. He is learned a huge amount from tiny happy people, information like that, i wish i had asa information like that, i wish i had as a first time mum, its gold dust really, forfamilies as a first time mum, its gold dust really, for families to as a first time mum, its gold dust really, forfamilies to be given those tips and tools to be given particularly in those first five yea rs. California has reversed the easing of many coronavirus restrictions as the number
of infections there continues to rise sharply. Bars, restaurants and cinemas are among the businesses which have been ordered close their doors immediately. Peter bowes reports from los angeles. Testing times. Theyre rolling back californias reopening plan because the virus is still spreading fast. The new measures mean sweeping closures of businesses that involve people getting together indoors. Restaurants, bars, cinemas, and museums are all being forced to close. More than 7,000 people have died from covid 19 in the state and the rate of new cases has risen to 8,000 a day. We are continuing to see hospitalisations rise in the state. In californias 30 worst affected counties, the renewed lockdown measures will be even tighter with gyms, hair salons, and churches all told to close their doors. This virus is not going away anytime soon. I hope all of us recognise that if we were still
connected to some notion that somehow when it gets warm, its going to go away or somehow its going to take summer months or weekends off this virus it has done neither. When the pandemic started, americas golden state fared much better than many other parts of the country, closing down early with far fewer people infected by the virus. But no longer because in california, theres a long hot, summer ahead with no relief in sight. Peter bowes, bbc news los angeles. £170 million will be invested into flood defence projects across the uk to better protect homes, businesses and jobs following the winters extreme weather.

Scientists compared 1,600 children under five from dog owning families to those without pets. The results, published in the Paediatric Research journal, show those with dogs were 30 less likely to be disruptive and 40 less likely to fall out with friends. Was there a dog in your house growing up . Do you think . Im going to get myself trouble whatever i say. No. No dog. I had a dog. You have a dog. Do you think you are better behaved than your comrades . No, i dont know. Do you think
your children are better behaved . No comment. Were you better behaved than i was . I didnt know you at that age but i can only comment on whats happening now. What are your thoughts, dan . Were trying to see the impact. This is the size of the uk comedy and tells us how we are performing. When it comes to the economy, there are always winners and losers. Some businesses are, obviously, in a lot of trouble, even now with things slowly reopening. Iamasa i am as a Distribution Centre and its busy. 60,000 square feet. We are at the busiest time of day as
well. I got fish products for cats and dogs to bedside cabinets, everything is being delivered this morning. We can look at some of those big numbers. Back in april, we talked about that, unprecedented figure, the economy shrinking by more than 20 . We wont do very much. Thats reflected in that number, why a lot of eyes are back on that in may and what will get in just under one hour. He saw some of those construction sites reopening when they felt more confident to do so. When they felt more confident to do so. Those Garden Centres and diy stores reopening in all that its hoped meant it wasnt as bad as in april. There would have been winners and losers and pretty obviously, places like this, delivering businesses, the technology set, whether it was us watching. Getting our food delivered. In
whether it was us watching. Getting ourfood delivered. In the whether it was us watching. Getting our food delivered. In the losers, we talked so much in the last few weeks about the aviation industry. The Hospitality Industry as well. Hundreds of thousands ofjobs. Its been a tough time for a lot of businesses. Here is Dave Standridge has told us his story of the last few months. It is bigtime. The event side of the business. People arent getting married, corporate events. Weve lost a lot of our business. April and may, again, disastrous months. We were trickling along and took a little bit of business, we were lucky to get the government grant. That only lasted a couple of weeks. Then you are back. The lack of business with that for three months. We need to absorb that somewhere. Very difficult. Tough
times for daves business there. That will be reflected in the figures at seven oclock but so too will deliveries in the on line joysticks business. I havejohn dicks with me. Last few months for you, it looked at the busiest time that how is it been . We have seen a nearly 50 increase in volume. Unprecedented, really. Even before lockdown, we saw growth in the business, but we have had to invest £200 million in new infrastructure. 15 new sites opening this year to handle what we foresee as a peak volume number of about 2 million parcels. Those 15 new sites, how is that comparing to what you planned going into this year . We planned to open, we had to actually increase out open, we had to actually increase our forecast, and we have seen years worth of growth in a very short time frame. 0n the back but also, it has
created 6000 job opportunities, 3500 have been among drivers, but also within hobbs. We have got 50 management positions, a graduate programme, people we need to invite into it as well. So that is how quickly this actor is growing. And when we actually have a look, not every single package behind you, but even here there are a lot of food deliveries going on. Are you able to tell us what you think is going on in the economy in the past two months based on what people are buying . Without going into client level detail, the two main areas we have seen a rapid increase in is the leisure industry, but predominantly food. We have seen a real increase in the amount of the parcels we deliver, with a guaranteed next day service. Is that people doing the Grocery Shopping . Yes. I think choices have changed, how people shop online, they have become used to it and they like it, so we foresee it continuing. We are going to get these figures at seven oclock, im not looking for a prediction, but the state of the
economy over may compared to april, where be spending less or more . Did you notice a change . As i said before we have seen rapid growth at this Distribution Centre, we have delivered 27,000 parcelsjust this Distribution Centre, we have delivered 27,000 parcels just today. We fore ca st delivered 27,000 parcels just today. We forecast that being 45,000 by christmas. So we have seen a massive increase in our volume of online sales. So if that is reflective of everything else, the plan would be for the economy to keep going from here. We will find out a bit later this morning. Thank you for having us. This morning. Thank you for having us. The busiest time of the morning, the busiest time of the day for dpd, it is always good when they met us on site. We will have those figures at seven oclock. A real indicator of what the bounceback and the recovery might look like after that tough month in april, how will they be . Sean, thank you. Looking forward to getting those numbers and seeing the impact on businesses. A busy all morning with all those parcels. Lets have a look at some of the front pages this morning. All the english editions feature
the move to make the wearing of Face Coverings compulsory. The mirror reports that the new rule comes in onjuly 24th. The telegraph headlines on the fact that shoppers who flout the new rule will face a £100 fine. It also has a picture of the duchess of cambridge. The times features the Face Covering story but leads with growing tensions between china and the uk. Britain is set to send what of its new aircraft carriers to the far east to carry out exercises with allies, including the us and japan. There is the duchess of cambridge again. But in spite of louises interview which you will see through the morning. And many scottish papers, like the edinburgh evening news, mark the reopening of hotels and shopping centres. The paper is calling it the great reawakening. You have got something no one is going to forget. No matter how many times you see this you cannot annunciate. We were talking yesterday about the zebra with two bodies and you have to work out which is which. I missed that. I will show you later. Now, here is one. Naga saw it straightaway. This isa one. Naga saw it straightaway. This is a picture of a kookaburra taken in new south wales. Whenever you say kookaburra, doesnt it remind you of the song . It does, and now it is stuck in my head. Now, can you see the baby goat . In the kookaburra . If you cannot see it yet, naga saw it straightaway, if you cant see it i will give you an idea of where it is. 0nce will give you an idea of where it is. Once you see it you cannot annunciate. This bit is the mouth of the baby goat. This is vi. And the baby goat is looking that way, while the kookaburra is looking this way. Do you see it . I will take your kookaburra, i would say, normally, do you see it . I will take your kookaburra, iwould say, normally, i would raise you, because you know how competitive i am. |j would raise you, because you know
how competitive i am. I realise how competitive you are. I dont think i will win this one. But i will give you a magnificent mane of hair. How is that . Charlie aske. Charliesque. This is rupert, a cocker spaniel, he gets noticed for his rock how when he is out and about. Isnt that a marvellous set of her . I dont think it quite beats ourfriend charlie. Of her . I dont think it quite beats our friend charlie. It has a touch of iggy pop. Definitely. I love this one. There was a fellow called tony lister, granddad, 80 years old, and he knew he was outside Buckingham Palace on ve day, and he had always wa nted palace on ve day, and he had always wanted to find a picture of him being there. And during the ve Day Celebrations he watched a documentary on the bbc and this is him outside the gates of Buckingham Palace, when he wasjust him outside the gates of Buckingham Palace, when he was just a him outside the gates of Buckingham Palace, when he wasjust a couple him outside the gates of Buckingham Palace, when he was just a couple of yea rs palace, when he was just a couple of years old, trying to find out how old he was, he was singing bring out the king, and he appeared on
this footage. He has always wanted this footage. He has always wanted this picture. He says his grandmother took him to Buckingham Palace on the day and he passed over the crowd to the front of the gates, and his nana and mum were brought through as well. He said the only downside was that he doesnt look like an 80 year old, he looks very good, but now all his friends know exactly how old he is. Isnt that great . In case you have missed them, because of obviously social distancing, snogging is back on telly. Kissing and sex scenes are about to resume. Very strict guidelines, you will be pleased to know. They will be working in close know. They will be working in close committee, and i will be screened for daily checks, they have to observe social distancing outside the building period. But the new rules are there. At a bit more snogging on telly. Right, well. All that to look forward to. It is 6 22am and you are watching referenced on the bbc. The duchess of cambridge has told bbc breakfast there is a massive gap in support given to parents after the first few months of a childs life until they start school. Its something she says she also experienced as a new mum. The duchess was speaking as part of her involvement with the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative. Aimed at the under fours, it wants to help parents develop their childrens communication skills with simple activities. Research shows that when children start behind, they stay behind. Louise went to meet the duchess and three of the families involved in the grounds of sandringham. Hello it is like a game of hide and seek. Thank you so much. Very nice to see you. Isnt this lovely i am
ryan, this is mia, she is eight months old today. Her favourite word now to say is dada, and she loves dried raspberries. Hello, my name is henrietta, and this is my partner. My henrietta, and this is my partner. My name is abu. This is our lovely daughter, she is almost one and she is just learning how to stand up. Hi, im kerry. And im darren. This is dexter. Hes two. He now strings words together into sentences. Pigeon well done having said that word before. Hello thanks for coming down. How are you guys doing . Is that your digger . Very nice. Louis would like that digger. It is such a fun age because they start to, like, express more. She
cannot scrunch up her nose and everything. We played peekaboo a lot as well. So that is amazing. I have learnt that through tiny happy people as well, how much food she should have, her first people as well, how much food she should have, herfirst word people as well, how much food she should have, her first word was people as well, how much food she should have, herfirst word was dada as well, i was trying to get her to say dada and it worked. Dada there you go you are absolutely passionate about early years. People sort of assume it is because you are a mum but actually it goes back quite farfor you, a mum but actually it goes back quite farforyou, doesnt a mum but actually it goes back quite far for you, doesnt it . Yeah, it goes back a long way. I think in a way, lots of the parents year and lots of the parents and families that you speak to, it is that i think we all know how important it is to look after our children and to nurture and care for young kids. But ididnt nurture and care for young kids. But i didnt realise, before i started all this work, i didnt realisejust how important it is. The Science Behind all of it is extraordinary, it is sort of 90 of adult brain growing before the age of five, and its just shows what a precious time
this is and what an amazing opportunity we as parents have. To really nurture their minds, and to really nurture their minds, and to really put them in the best possible position for their future lives. At the heart of the bbcs tony happy people initiative, a simple message. Talk to your children from as early as possible. My yoghurt . Are you making a mess mess is good. As possible. My yoghurt . Are you making a mess mess is goodm as possible. My yoghurt . Are you making a mess mess is good. It is important, because more than one in four children starting Primary School in england dont reach the required level of literacy development, and it is a similar picture right across the uk. The duchess of cambridge has been involved for some time. Today, she andi involved for some time. Today, she and i are meeting three families at sandringham to find out how they getting along. She is very chatty. She is. She learns a lot from us, she copies a lot. Like eating
issues does that happen a lot . And how have you guys been through lockdown . It has been such a hard time. How have you handled it . |j work a lot, and of course it takes up work a lot, and of course it takes upa lot work a lot, and of course it takes up a lot of my time, and that is at least 40 hours a week. To me being at home, it is a lot different to being at work and seeing things that i dont usually. Both, definitely both. Plus it gives me time to spend with my daughter, bond. It is a very beautiful thing. You just want to eat. Yeah my children are bottomless pits. I feel like i am a consta nt bottomless pits. I feel like i am a constant feeding machine with them. Just a few little bits . He is the same age, isnt he, as prince lewis . When is his birthday . The second of june. Gosh, yes, very close. Hello i was just saying, lewis doesnt understand social distancing. So he
goes up wanting to cuddle everything, and particularly any babies younger than him. What kind of resources did you use with yours, and are still using, obviously . Well, i think it is really hard, there is so much focus, particularly during pregnancy, we havejust got a newborn baby, it is on the physical development of your baby, and as a mother. But what i think was really missing, and what i found was missing, and what i found was missing, was the support and how to help their social and Emotional Development, you know, how do you interact with your baby, what is it that you should be doing, not perhaps with the first few months, it isa perhaps with the first few months, it is a huge one to support from midwives and Health Physicians and things, but from then onwards, there isa things, but from then onwards, there is a massive gap before they start school, and it is that bit that i think you really need to be supported. Have you learned anything new from being part of tony happy people that perhaps you didnt know
before . You dontjust need all these toys. You canjust use something simple like a blanket or a tree bit of paper rolled up. And just a bit of paper is the best way for them to learn. Talking is free isnt it i think these science also shows how important relationships are, and safer nurturing environments are, the children, particularly under five. And that is what really matters, actually, it is not necessarily about the toys. It is not the exciting places you go with them, it is how you as parents interact with them. That is what really counts. I am really interested that you said you noticed she has five different cries. One cry is for, like, i need a drink. There is a fake cry. So it is like, why are you not hear showing the attention . And then there is one cry
if you are watching tv and she would like to sit on your lap, she will just be like. And you think she is crying and you look at her and she starts smiling straightaway. And then there is this cry. Another attention cry. And then she has a reading cry, which is much more. And then you have the night terror cry. You know, some of the things today, ryan at the beginning saying that his baby has five different cries, he has learned a huge amount from the tony happy people, and it is information like that, which i wish i had had as a first time mom. For so i had had as a first time mom. For so many parents, it is gold dust, really, to be given these tips and tools to be given in these first five years. Cute kids. Thank you to all the families who took part. You can find more activities, tips and advice on the tiny happy people website at bbc. Co. Uk tiny happy people. You are watching bbc breakfast.

south east but given the fact we got huge amounts of cloud, temperatures rising 20 degrees, most places sitting in the mid teens as we go through this afternoon. Who tonight, rain to begin with and Northern Ireland. A bit more on the way of downpour developing across the western half of the country. A few heavier bursts in scotland, northern england, west wales. This temperature is once again sticking in double figures for most as we go into tomorrow morning. The picture for wednesday is an even cloudier one than today. The best of any rightness in the eastern half of the country. Patchy, mainly light rain and drizzle. Most particularly across the west. Later on this afternoon, maybe west wales, towards cornwall, the better chance of a few sunnier breaks developing as we go through the second half of the day. Temperatures down and where we would expect this time of year, 16 20 degrees. A bit more on the way of sunshine around on thursday. 0ften

Well bring you all the latest news
and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this the olympics may not be happening this year, but sports fans wont have to go without entirely. Bbc sport are running some of the best moments of recent times, starting with swimmer becky adlingtons double gold win. Well speak to her just after 7 30. Also this morning. Well find out about the rare vulture from the alps, thats bigger than a golden eagle, and is currently living in the Peak District. And antiques roadshow will be back on bbc one in august. For the first time in more than 40 years it will be filmed on a closed set. Fiona bruce is asking us to search our attics and cupboards for treasures shelljoin us just before the end of the show. Good morning. Heres a summary of todays main stories from bbc news. Scientists advising the government say a second wave of Coronavirus Infections this winter could be more serious than the first, with 120,000 hospital deaths a reasonable worst Case Scenario. A report commissioned by the governments chief scientific advisor says action must be taken now to minimise the risk of a second peak
and recommends Vulnerable People and healthcare workers be vaccinated against the flu early. Lets speak now to gp dr william bird, who contributed to this report. Pretty stark figures to be waking up to today. Good morning. The first thing is, its not a prediction, its a worst Case Scenario. Its a reasonable worst Case Scenario. It will happen if we dont do much. The things we can do, first of all the test and traces got to be really uplifted and make sure its working very well, its worked in other countries, we know that in all the Scientific Evidence is if we get that right, it will really help. The levels of virus are going to go right down. September, at the bottom so right down. September, at the bottom so august september, this is when we
get everything sorted out and they will start to pick up again as we come into the darker nights in the colder temperatures which the virus quite likes, it doesnt like ultraviolet light and doesnt like when its humid and when its warm. Were going to get this window. The other thing is, Public Information. What we found was when information went out, there were a lot of groups that didnt understand the messaging. Language was difficult. We need to be a bit better in getting the messaging across the people really understand about the social distancing. For example, i found it quite hard to keep track with what was going on. Can i visit my parents, can i go in the garden, doi my parents, can i go in the garden, do i stay the night . Its quite complicated. Keeping it much simpler. And surveillance. We need to know whether viruses and if we do know, we can focus on these areas. In leicester, there was a bit of
delay and it got a bit out of hand. If we can get the directors of Public Health involved, involved in all the decisions as well, those other themes that came across. There is also the potential for a flu virus this winter, as we often get. How might those to interact . Are people more likely to get the flu than coronavirus . We dont know. Some viruses Work Together and they make the situation worse. Some viruses compete against each other and therefore they actually kind of help reduce the impact and some are just independent and we have no idea whether coronavirus and influenza are going to be one of those three options. Assuming it is independent. An extra 50,000 deaths. A fairly cold winter as well. These things do happen. The key thing is to make
sure to make sure people who have got a temperature or illness nowhere to go on to keep people separated. You have a hot zone in the cold zones which you saw when you worked. People were really scared coming up to them. They didnt want to come up, they were worried they would get coronavirus. Lots of people have attempted with flu. It will overwhelm the whole system of hot zones. Perhaps use the nightingale hospitals. Everyone in the nhs and vulnerable, must have that vaccination to keep those levels done. It probably touches a bit on my question. Lots of people watching this morning, they have experienced that sort of fear over the last few months. They are worried. Its a
reasonable worst Case Scenario. What is your advice to those about keeping themselves safe as possible with the winter coming. A few things we can all do. One of them is to make sure we are healthy. Fit and well. You probably heard me lots of times on this programme. Get your fitness up. We know your immune system is so much stronger and will be able to deal with the virus better. Dietary as well. The anti inflammatory diet. Less of the processed food which actually causes inflammation which affects the immune system. How many time to the doctors say that is key to it . Also, in the winter, one of the problems we got in this country is houses are quite cold. People are worried about the heating. The government hope it will really help to present fuel poverty, as its called but if you know of a neighbour and a relative,
someone you know know of a neighbour and a relative, someone you know whos older, and you know theyre going to be living ina you know theyre going to be living in a house that is quite cold, thats really important to make sure the now, youve got installation, heating sorted out and the other things make sure you know what youre doing about the facemasks. 0bviously weve been hearing a lot about that. Hand washing. Find out now. You know what to do when the time comes. A survey of doctors. They said they would support the use of Face Coverings. Will gps be able
to provide exemption letters when it comes to the use of Face Coverings for asthma sufferers. Thats really controversial. Its the evidence which is difficult there. There any evidence to show when you got Face Covering and moderate asthma or mild asthma, its going to be detrimental. If you got really severe asthma, that may be difficult and there is no doubt that if the sciences there and youre talking to your patient, and we all agreed the best thing that absolutely exemption would be appropriate. I think thats going to be something quite remote. Most people with asthma, you are wearing a mask, it should be absolutely fine. Thanks claire for that question. Hopefully its given you the answer youve needed. Its time to talk to sally. Good morning. Quite an exciting day ahead. It was an exciting match last night, disappointing some. Becky is on in one hour. Always lots to talk about with Rebecca Adlington. It had all been going so well for Manchester United. In brilliant form in the premier league, charging towards a place in the top four and Champions League qualification. And they even had the lead last night, 2 1 up against southampton as the game ticked into injury time. But then southampton came up with an equailiser in the 96th minute an absolute sickener for the Manchester United manager 0le gunner solskjaer, whos team would have moved into third place if theyd have hung on just a few more seconds. It wasnt absolute secular. 0le gunner solskjaer, whos team would have moved into third place if theyd have hung on just a few more seconds. As pressure playing the man united every week so we
as pressure playing the man united every week so we were as pressure playing the man united every week so we were playing the tiles. The boys are feeling pressure on the fans at old trafford in southampton there, we got to play with confidence, 18 may be an unbeaten one and if we are not playing with confidence that the moment, were never going be firing. To uniteds neighbours Manchester City next, who now will be playing in the Champions League next season after they had their ban overturned. Is manager Pep Guardiola happy about it . You bet he is. This is him and his team posing in a selfie just as the announcement from the court of arbitration for sport was made. That picture was quickly deleted. Its now widely expected that city will spend a load of money on new players this summer, and the former city defender Micah Richards says the current squad willjust be glad a final decisions been made. Its goodbye, its over with because its difficult speaking from the player s point of view, not knowing if you are going to be in there,
every month, every different week there seems to be a different story coming out. To put it all to bed now is just brilliant. There was a fairytale story in the Football League as Wycombe Wanderers were promoted to the championship for the first time in their history. They were tipped to be relegated at the start of the season, but they beat Oxford United 2 1 last night to win the league one play off final joe jacobson with the decisive penalty. Then came the champagne, as wycombe made into the second tier of english football for the first time in their 133 year history. Competitive womens tennis returns in britain for the First Time Since the start of lockdown. British number one Johanna Konta wont be competing at the progress tour championships in roehampton, but fed cup stars Katie Boulter and katie swan will be there. The tournament follows the same idea as Jamie Murrays battle of the brits for the men last month. You can watch on the bbc sport website from 11 oclock this morning. And the American Football Team the Washington Redskins are going to drop their name and logo, which have both been criticised for years for being racist. The redskins name was given to the team when they formed in 1933. But they said they would retire it after a review that was demanded by their sponsors who had threatened to withdraw their support if the name wasnt changed. Thats making lots of headlines over in the us at the moment, the redskins dropping that part of their name. I heard they might be going for redtails. There are quite a few exa m ples for redtails. There are quite a few examples and suggestions of what it might become instead. Mixed reviews from the fans, because they have obviously been known as that for many years, but of course i think a huge majority of them know that it is time for change and it is not appropriate to use that name anymore, a big change for them. |j think probably the first of quite a
few questions about the way we name things and all that sort of stuff, im sure, coming up in the weeks and months ahead. Thank you very much, sal. We will see with Rebecca Adlington in about an hour. A tell all memoir written by Donald Trumps niece which claims he is a narcissist who threatens the life of every american is due out today. The white house has described it as a book of falsehoods. So how damaging will mary trumps book be for the president as he prepares to fight for re election . Lets speak to drjeanine kraybill, from the department of Political Science at california state university. Thank you very much forjoining us this morning. Have you seen the book, or have you seen any snippets from the book . Yes, i have seen a few snippets from the book but u nfortu nately, few snippets from the book but unfortunately, since it doesnt come out until just a unfortunately, since it doesnt come out untiljust a few hours from now,
out untiljust a few hours from now, out time, i havent had the opportunity to read the full manuscript. I understand it has been sent to a few members of the media, but snippets have been released. But from your impressions, that you have seen, from your impressions, that you have seen, you from your impressions, that you have seen, you know, narcissistic, damaging words from a member of his family. How damaging do you think this could be . To be honest, i think it will be damaging in the sense that it will, for those who are already disappointed in Donald Trumps leadership, or have had suspicions about, you know, where his mental state is at, i think it will just reaffirm those his mental state is at, i think it willjust reaffirm those negative attributes for them. In regards to the president. But in terms of moving the needle in the 2020 election, you know, for or against him, im not sure how much is at play. This book is being released in july. It actually, just a few hours ago, got through a court order because the trump family, or the trump estate, tried to block publication of the book. Here in the us we have very strong first
amendment protections about prior restraint, and so the press has quite a few protection so the book was able to win that court battle, publisher wise. But like i was saying, it is still a few months before a president ial election, so i am not sure how much steam this is going to pick up and move the needle away from donald trump. I think there is a whole other host of issues happening in our country right now, which are at play in doing that, and the polls between biden and trump show that. Doing that, and the polls between biden and trump show thatm doing that, and the polls between biden and trump show that. It has been very clear how the white house has responded to the book. Its criticisms of mary trump. What are they, and in order to try to undermine her credibility, to be behind this book . Sure, well, it is important to know that mary trump does have credibility and the fact that this book is an insight into the psychology of the trump family,
and how those family dynamics, partick italy with Donald Trumps pa rents, partick italy with Donald Trumps parents, you know, fostered and created this individual who is now our president , whom she refers to as insecure and essentially kind of diabolical as a character, who is now leading the us. But the thing is, as well, she does have a phd in psychology. She is a practising clinical psychologist. So she is coming at it from that perspective. But what the trump estate is trying to do, and the white house, is discredit her by saying, listen, she was an open supporter of Hillary Clinton, she is an open democrat, she is bitter because her and her brother were left out of Donald Trumps fathers estate. And so this is her axe to grind or her time of notoriety. So they are trying to discredit her being an academic, being a clinical professional, by
saying, essentially, she is partisan, so she is biased and she is disgruntled, but she was left out of the larger family estate. And just to be clear, she is a registered democrat, isnt she, and supported Hillary Clinton . So she has very quickly nailed her political colours to the mast before this book is out . My understanding is that she openly supported Hillary Clinton in the 2016 president ial election. It is interesting to see how this plays out. As you say, it is being released very soon. Doctor janine graybill, department of political silence at california state university, thank you for your time. Dutchman Political Science. State university, thank you for your time. Dutchman politicalscience. Department of Political Science. From the 24th ofjuly, if youre in a shop in england, youll need to make sure you wear a Face Covering of some sort or youll face a £100 fine, the government will announce later. You while one for the first time in a shop yesterday . I have done it for a shop yesterday . I have done it for a few times, but yesterday i decided
i would start wearing it in shops. We were talking about it this morning. I have not yet won one in the supermarket, but i noticed so many people wearing it, and the messages, it is not for you, it is so messages, it is not for you, it is so you messages, it is not for you, it is so you can messages, it is not for you, it is so you can protect everyone else. And it does feel that is the shift, socially. That is the conversation i was having with my own children over the weekend, as well. I did a sort of survey in the shop yesterday, they were just short of 80 people in there, i walked around counting, and only saw two people, myself included, wearing a Face Covering. |j think it is being thought about. Definitely people are thinking about it. This will obviously change things. The question is, what will it mean, not just for things. The question is, what will it mean, notjust for people who are choosing to wear them will have to wear them from july 24 in england, but also for owners of essences and their customers. Lets find out what former apprentice contestant and shop owner, fran bishop, thinks. She joins us from doncaster. Good morning to you, fran. Good to talk to you about this. How will it change things from your business and your point of view . First of all, i
think that it will be quite difficult for my colleagues to enforce in stores. I was speaking yesterday about how different areas of the country are taking this. We have a store in doncaster for example, and very few people that are wearing masks, whereas in our warehouse, people are more than happy to wear a mask. It is quite difficult to enforce. Safety is the paramount thing. Lots of people are wearing facials as opposed to face masks. Face shields. Wearing facials as opposed to face masks. Face shields. It is an interesting point of discussion with your customers, as well. Shops do not have to enforce it, it will be the police to enforce it. But if you are having a conversation with a customer who is not wearing a face mask and wants to come in, do you turn them away . How does that conversation go . I suppose you would have to speak to your staff about that . I mean, people have to be prepared to answer all these moral and ethical questions that will be
brought up in retail. From my point of view it will be about whether they are maintaining social distancing, if they are being respectful, and if they are not, u nfortu nately, if respectful, and if they are not, unfortunately, if you are not going to keep my work place safe, myself and my colleagues, we cannot let you come into the store. The only issue is, ithink come into the store. The only issue is, i think some retailers will u nfortu nately is, i think some retailers will unfortunately put profit above safety, which i have seen many do already. What about the customers themselves . Do you know how many, i dont expect you to give numbers, but may be the percentage of the proportion wise, how many customers have an wearing face masks in the shops that you have got . Brutally honest, probably about 1 . You know, we put on social media, how would you feel about it, and an overwhelming majority said, no, i dont want to wear them. Everyone else can, but i dont want to. And it comes down to the fact of social responsibility. I dont have a problem with it. I think it keeps people safe, it is fantastic. But an
overwhelming majority of people do not want to wear them. Do you think, you know, this is a discussion that naga and i have been having this morning, it is about that sort of cultural change and if more of a start wearing them, then it will become something that we just do, we we re become something that we just do, we were speaking to a biologist last week who said that when you leave the house in the morning, as well as your wallet, your purse, your watch, your wallet, your purse, your watch, your keys, you need to start taking a Face Covering with you as well. Absolutely. I think if this had been introduced when the pandemic really geared up, i think the British Public might have had less aversion to wearing Face Coverings. What you haveis to wearing Face Coverings. What you have is such a mixed message. You have is such a mixed message. You have got the government saying, actually, no, we will not make you wear them now, but for a lot of people, who have taken everything the government has been saying personally and saying, 0k, the government has been saying personally and saying, ok, i will do that, i will do that, but they are changing their mind continuously. The goalposts are changing. This should have happened a long time ago, and should have happened a long time ago, and i think a should have happened a long time ago, and i thinka lot should have happened a long time ago, and i think a lot of people believe it has been left too late. Asa believe it has been left too late. As a Business Owner, obviously you had that sort of discussion with your staff, and you are talking to some of your customers about how they feel about Face Coverings, and they feel about Face Coverings, and the government was saying when it does come in that the police will enforce that. As the owner of a business, how are you getting your head around that . How do you think that will look . It is interesting, you have got 70 Business Owners across the uk, things are changing all the time, we are trying to enforce the two metre rule, the one metre rule, and the government is saying, lets kickstart the economy. But in my experience, i know it is a well pandemic and i get that, but it feels the joy has been taken out of everything and so many people are saying, if i have to wear a Face Covering, im not going to go to my local high street. It could be another nail in the coffin for the high street, possibly. Finally, do you think that people come in your own research, you think there are some people who will not come because they do not want to wear a Face Covering . Absolutely. It is clear as day, to see that. It is
that whole childish mentality, isnt it . If you are going to tell me what to do, no, im not going to do it, im not going to come. To do, no, im not going to do it, im not going to comelj to do, no, im not going to do it, im not going to come. I am sure youll be interested to hear what the environment secretary has to say on breakfast in about half an hour. Really good to talk to you this morning. Always difficult to adapt to change. Like, two metres, two metre rule, when it first came in, and now it just seems that yeah. And we are all sort of keeping a distance. Lots of people like and it went seatbelts first came in and people complained about seatbelts, but now the first thing you do when you get in the car is put it on. Clunk, click, every trip. It sticks in your head, that. Good morning, matthew. Have you got over your giggling fit about the weather . No, it is still here. Anyway, good morning to you. I have got some
sunshine for you this morning, lovely blue skies above cooper, in fife. Cupar. It will not be the same everywhere. For most of you this morning the skies will be a bit more akin to those above llanfor. For some people it will stay grey all day long. Particularly if you are in Northern Ireland, were some of the wettest conditions will be found today. All evident on the satellite imagery. The view from space. You can satellite imagery. The view from space. You can see satellite imagery. The view from space. You can see the cloud piling on of the atlantic in a moment. Some good gaps from eastern scotland to parts of north east england. That is what you have the sunniest conditions. The cloud from some areas may thing and break at times, to allow some sunny spells. 0verall, fairly cloudy. The shower across the south of england and north east scotla nd south of england and north east scotland but it is the north of ireland where it will be damp and damper through the day. Those winds coming from the north and north westerly direction, bringing wet weather in of the atlantic. Also bringing slightly cooler air. We have had a muggy note in the
south east, 20 degrees is the higher today, most places sitting in the teens. You really want the sunshine to feel the benefit of the warmth. This evening and overnight, plenty of cloud in place, rain and drizzle across western areas, heavy experts across western areas, heavy experts across the western half of scotland, it may be into west wales later. Again, afairly it may be into west wales later. Again, a fairly mild night. Temperatures sticking well in double figures for the vast majority. As we go into wednesday, if anything comedy skies will be a good deal more grey. Not a lot of sunshine around. Rain and drizzle coming and going everywhere through the morning. Most likely through the day in the west, later on, maybe west wales towards the south west, we could see that cloud break and allow some sunshine, which are still similar today, and down to levels we could normally expect at this time of year. Thursday, we start fairly cloudy. Sunnier breaks developing for a time because england, wales and eastern scotland. In the south westerly wind we will see the temperatures picking up, could be getting into the low 20s and east of
scotla nd getting into the low 20s and east of scotland and more widely into the 20s across england and wales. A greater chance of rain on thursday. That will be across the west of scotla nd that will be across the west of scotland as the breeze picks up. That rain will turn heavier as we go through the night and into friday, pushing south and east on this weather front. It will bring some rain across the country through friday and into the start of saturday, but if anything, it will sweep away some of the cloud as well and we will see increasing amounts of sunshine. Temperatures roughly around where they should be. A brief peak of warmth across the south east on saturday. That is how the weather is looking. Headlines are next. Kindest, most good morning welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. 0ur headlines today Face Coverings will be compulsory in shops in england from the end of next week.

Its tuesday the 14th ofjuly. Our top story. Wearing Face Coverings in shops in england will be compulsory from the end of next week with fines of up to £100 for those who fail to do so. Theyre already mandatory on Public Transport in england and in shops in scotland, germany, spain and italy. Heres our political

We are behind the curve again. There was a delay for lockdown, delay on testing, delay to protect our care homes. Theres confusion over masks.

Businesses may hope that it will also grow confidence so that more shoppers return to the high street. Jessica parker, bbc news. We can get more on this now from our political correspondent, chris mason, whos in westminster. Good morning. The debate has been, we wont, we will, we wont. Now its next friday. Good morning. Its a bit like 0asis albums from definitely maybe two whats the story this morning . We will have to wear these things in shops a week from friday. The government has been all over the shop, going from no, we wont have to but maybe it will be mandatory perhaps, in other words definite the maybe two yes, we will have to dig out these coverings and
have to dig out these coverings and have them with us when we venture out and about. The government is making the argument that the Scientific Evidence in favour of wearing these things has cranked up. They are following existing policy in scotland and in plenty of other countries around europe and indeed around the world and as you view been reflecting on in your conversations this morning, the interesting thing is the extent to which they become a cultural norm. As we leave the house and have them in our pockets just in case. This time yesterday, i was sat in this very chair talking about Face Coverings and what did i do afterwards, i went to a coffee shop and didnt have it in me because it wasnt in my head to have it with me. The government will hope this change means we will get used to it and always have one in our pocket just in case. Chris, thanks very much. I wasjust just in case. Chris, thanks very much. I was just asking you if your mask was disposable or one you would wash. It was a cloth one we got off

David says, when masks become compulsory, there must be a limit on the price because he says the cost at his local shop has gone up by 1000 by his calculations. Scientists advising the government say a second wave of Coronavirus Infections this winter could be more serious than the first, with 120,000 hospital deaths a reasonable worst Case Scenario. A report commissioned by the chief scientific advisor says action must be taken now, while the infection rate is low, to minimise the risk of a second peak over the winter months. Its recommendations include early flu vaccinations for health and social care workers, a Public Information campaign and a Rapid Monitoring system
to stop local outbreaks. The first thing is, its not a prediction its a worst Case Scenario so one of the first things we can do is the test and trace, it has to be uplifted and we need to make sure its working very, very well, we know that in all the Scientific Evidence is, if we get that right, it will really help us with those outbreaks. Levels are going to go right down so in september, they going to be the bottom so august, september, this is when we can get everything sorted out and they will start to pick up again as we come into the darker nights in the colder temperatures. The duchess of cambridge has told bbc breakfast there is a massive gap in support given to parents after the first few months of a childs life until they start school. Its something the duchess says she felt too as a new mum. She was speaking exclusively to breakfast, as part of the launch of the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative for children aged four and under. I think its really hard, so much focus particularly during pregnancy, just when you had a baby, is on the physical development of your baby and you as a mother. What i think is really missing and what i found was missing as well was the support there and how to help there, and social and Emotional Development. How do you interact with a newborn baby . What is it that you should be doing . Not perhaps in the first few months, theres a huge amount of support from midwives and Health Visitors and things, but from then onwards, you know, theres a massive gap when they start school. Hearing some of the things that the parents today saying, ryan, at the beginning, saying his baby has five different cries. He has learned a huge amount
from tiny happy people, and its information like that, i wish i had had as a first time mum, its gold dust, really, for families to be given those tips and tools to be given particularly in those first five years. Lots more of that interview with louise coming up and we will be speaking about that later today. Weve been waiting for numbers on the economy. Its all about the economy and how it doing. We can do in order to protect ourselves against a slumping economy. Sean is taking a look now. May figures are out today . Good morning everybody. A couple of different sets of numbers with had this morning but one that a lot of people are watching from the 0ffice lot of people are watching from the office for National Statistics is how do the economy get on in may in particular . We had that huge fall in april where the economy shrank. In may, it did grow but only a small amount relative to that, it grew by
1. 8 . There was some expectations it might bea 1. 8 . There was some expectations it might be a bit bigger than that so some may be disappointed by that figure. When you look at what grew in may and what contributed to the economy recovering slightly, it was manufactured during, the housebuilding sector showed a little bit of a sign of recovery. To put it into context, the other set of figures, what happened in the three months to may. The economy is still a quarter the size in may. That huge fall we saw, it hasnt made up any ground in that. When you look at the comments from the office for National Statistics, it says Many Services remained in the doldrums. Theyve had their busiest time on record. That comes during these figures. Shopping more on line. Not enough to make up for the fact that so enough to make up for the fact that so many people have not been in
work, theyve been furloughed, not been able to contribute to the economy the way they would have done previously. If you look in the three months to may, the construction sector in particular had such a big fall, seek and maybe see why when we are on a construction site, there was a lot of talk about trying to get the uk building again. That colla pse get the uk building again. That collapse in that part of the economy was really hitting these figures hard. Thosejob figures was really hitting these figures hard. Those job figures we talked about, so Many Companies laying off so about, so Many Companies laying off so many people. The economy has hit hard. Businesses are reacting and workers are suffering on the back of that. Were going to find out how that. Were going to find out how that business is doing as well. Deliveries. Everybody ordering stuff on line. The governor of california has reimposed a sweeping closure of public spaces in response to a sharp rise in coronavirus cases. Gavin newsom has ordered all indoor activities at restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, zoos and museums to shut with immediate effect. In the worst affected counties, churches, gyms and hairdressers
will also close. It comes after a 20 rise in people testing positive in the last fortnight. A judge has ruled that blanket bans on renting properties to people on housing benefit are unlawful and discriminatory. The court ruling found a single mother of two had experienced indirect discrimination after she ended up homeless when a letting agent refused to rent to her. Thejudge said no dss rental bans are against equality laws. Housing Charity Shelter has described the case as momentous. A body found in a lake in the us state of california has been identified as the missing glee star naya rivera. The 33 year old went missing on wednesday after going on a boat trip with her four year old son. He was found alone and asleep on the boat. Police have said they believe she drowned. Two rafjets have escorted a passenger plane to Stanstead Airport after a bomb scare.

Essex police said two men, aged 47 and 26, are in custody. Children who grow up with pet dogs are better behaved thats according to some new research. Scientists compared 1,600 children underfive from dog owning families to those without pets. The results, published in the Paediatric Research journal, show those with dogs were 30 less likely to be disruptive and 40 less likely to fall out with friends. I think the challenge this morning, dan, is for viewers to figure out who grow up with a dog are not. If you grow up with a dog, you are likely to be 30 less disruptive. You grow up with a dog, you are likely to be 30 less disruptivem teaches you about other people and other things than yourself. That is
a distraction. Im not pointing any fingers, then grown up with a dog, i think thats what you have to do, i think, when there is dog is about or other people about. No . 0k. The duchess of cambridge has told bbc breakfast there is a massive gap in support given to parents after the first few months of a childs life until they start school. Its something she says she also experienced as a new mum. The duchess was speaking as part of her involvement with the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative. Aimed at the under fours, it wants to help parents develop their childrens communication skills. Research shows that when children start behind, they stay behind. Louise went to meet the duchess and three of the families involved in the grounds of sandringham. Yeah, it goes back a long way. I think, you know, in a way, lots of the parents here and lots of the parents
and families that you speak to, i think they all know how important it is to look after our children, and to nurture and care for young kids. But i didnt realise, before i started all this work, i didnt realise just how important it is. Some of the Science Behind all of it is extraordinary, its sort of 90 of our adult brain grows before the age of five, and itjust shows what a precious time this is and what an amazing opportunity we as parents have to really nurture their minds, and really put them in the best possible position for their future lives. If they feel they are doing a good job or not doing something right, they can reach out to help. Job or not doing something right, they can reach out to helplj job or not doing something right,
they can reach out to help. I needed support, and we have to sort of work with those around us who can be there as our lifelines. Lets talk some more about this with child psychologist laverne antrobus. What do you make of the Tiny Happy People Initiative. Its a great opportunity to reset parenting. Its a great way to re evaluate the job. It gives them an opportunity to get in touch with their competencies because of the duchess is saying, those first few months and weeks, there is probably quite a lot of people around you and left to your own devices and what parents often report, theyre not quite sure sort of moves in the way in which they are interacting with their babies, having the impact it is having. Its really vital that you as a parent
bring your confidence to the four and notice what you do because that will affect your childs learning. And notice what you do because that will affect your childs learninglj suppose confidence is key, because it is not easy, and human being trying to figure out how to communicate themselves in this world, without all the tools, and then as a parent trying to figure out what that tiny human needs, that is difficult . Absolutely, that is right, because what you are trying to do, there are lots of messages about other peoples childrens development, and as parents i think that puts quite a heavy load on them, but i think what this website is doing is actually, bringing to the fore that all of your interactions as a parent really being on this very, very key milestone in your childrens learning. Public confidence to be talking your child endlessly, mimicking their sounds. Because as they mimic you they realise there is something about this to infer that really makes sense, you are noticing how they stretch their bodies, you are setting them up so that they can
learn something about themselves and their world. For me, learn something about themselves and theirworld. For me, it learn something about themselves and their world. For me, it is about how pa rents their world. For me, it is about how pa re nts ca n their world. For me, it is about how parents can grasp that confidence to help the children with their future learning. In your experience, how much our parents more aware, orfeel better equipped, i suppose, much our parents more aware, orfeel better equipped, isuppose, to communicate with babies up until they begin school . How much more of a boost does not provide than when they actually enter the Education System . They actually enter the Education System . I mean, it is going to be enormous. Is parents is pa rents really is parents really do understand and get to grips with this as a key task, of course, there is enjoyment as well, but really noticed that what they do makes a difference, so not to be embarrassed, i think that often parents can report that they feel, you know, am by getting it quite right . Actually, what these videos show is that the tiny steps and movements that you make have this impact, and so that then helps the basic development of moving into
school life and learning. What about pa rents school life and learning. What about parents who have to work, who then have to rely on family members or childminders to stimulate their children effectively . I mean, that is just children effectively . I mean, that isjust a children effectively . I mean, that is just a practicality, children effectively . I mean, that isjust a practicality, isnt children effectively . I mean, that is just a practicality, isnt it . There is a lot of responsibility with this new data, or with this assumption that children can make big steps if they dont have that stimulus from their parents . Of course, there is lots of pressure on pa rents course, there is lots of pressure on parents because everybody is not in the same situation. Finding the childcare, finding the resources that you need in order to be able to feel confident that your child is getting those very Good Building blocks, but ultimately, i wouldnt wa nt pa re nts blocks, but ultimately, i wouldnt want parents to underestimate the small bits of time that they do manage to snatch with their children, if they are very busy, and of course that is a factor, really are impactful. So, you know, but bedtime, all of that language, what we are trying to say is that the
language and the communication that you embed at this stage really helps children in the future, because we dont want children to turn up at Nursery School not having the fundamentals. So parents have to really feel, and to be celebrated, i think, for the contribution they make. I suppose we are very conscious of lockdown and the restrictions that have happened. Some parents say it would be brilliant to have loads of time with the children, some have got home schooling, they have found that absolutely exhausting. Both sides find that understandable. Can you spend too much time with a young child . Well, i am not sure about spending too much time with them, because i think the thing about children is that they know when and they let you know when they are and they let you know when they are a bit fed up with you. That is another way that parents have to manage this relationship. Doing things with your children and putting all the effort into the developmental stage that they are m, developmental stage that they are in, and actually, what children do tell us when they are a bit fed up, they wander off, they stop looking
at you. You can take your cue from your child and im not sure there is ever too much, particularly when you are ina ever too much, particularly when you are in a playing situation, chatting away, as i say, children usually let you know they have had enough. Thank you know they have had enough. Thank you very much for your insights with us this morning. This february was the wettest on record, as three successive storms battered the uk. In some of the worst hit areas, businesses flooded three times in a matter of weeks. Now, the government has announced plans to improve flood defences in 22 at risk areas across the country. 0ur reporter luxmy gopal is in one of them for us this morning. Iam sure i am sure it doesnt seem such a long time ago for them, because they are still trying to recover. Good morning, luxmy. Good morning, luxmy. Good morning. Welcome to a beautiful, picturesque riverside
location here in hebden ridge. Doesnt it look idyllic . As you say, four months ago, it was a very different scene and the world seemed like a different place back then. But back in february, storm here are was battering the country and here in hebden ridge severe flooding affected homes and businesses and it was actually the third time in the space ofjust was actually the third time in the space of just seven was actually the third time in the space ofjust seven and a half years that hebden ridge had suffered bad flooding. Now, today the government has announced £170 million of new funding to go towards flood defences in the most at risk places, and that funding is for shovel ready projects, projects that are good to 90, projects, projects that are good to go, theyjust projects, projects that are good to go, they just need projects, projects that are good to go, theyjust need the cash to unlock them and get them off the ground. Hebden ridge is one of those places, getting £12 million from defra, and the government says that will help 1000 businesses in the area. Ina will help 1000 businesses in the area. In a moment we will be speaking to andrew at the local floodwater. First, lets go to racheljones, a local Business Owner who owns a zero waste shop that
sells food. How was your business affected in the flooding . It was quite badly affected. I had about 2 three feet of water in my shop, which is quite a lot. I have got four foot shutters on the front, but the water had come over. And how do you feel about the governments plans. How much confidence do you have . Very, very little. I think it is all right to build was to stop the water coming in, but you really need to look at what is going on. You need to change the environment. And how do you feel, given that your livelihood can so badly be affected by flooding, how much do you worry about future flooding . Quite a lot, because my business has to be shut for 2 three weeks, and nobody comes to buy anything for quite a long time afterwards. Thank you. Now,
andrew, as a floodwater, who has seen andrew, as a floodwater, who has seen this happen many times before, what is your reaction to the governments plans. Well, it isnt before time. We desperately need the work done here. And quite rightly, it is notjust about work done here. And quite rightly, it is not just about the town centre, it is about the moors, upon the hillsides, other communities along the valley. We are desperate for infrastructure work in this town stop but it is like they say, if we slow the flow, the natural flood management, all that needs to be integrated, because if it all does not Work Together, nothing is going to work. And you can feel the tension here, every time we get an alert, it is awful, it is palpable. I feel for the traders here. This is their livelihood. Their dream. And it is direct, every time. As rachel said, the shops are shut. Absolutely, well, thank you, andrew, and hopefully the people here will certainly be hoping that the new funding will make a difference. The
work on those 22 projects across the country is due to start in the next 18 months and as you heard from rachel and andrew here, that is not a moment too soon for the people inhabit and bridge. Thank you very much for that, luxmy. Lets speak now to mary dhonau, whos a flood risk consultant. Good morning to you. Can i first of all good morning to you. Can i first of a ll start good morning to you. Can i first of all start with your reaction to those plans . You heard from andrew, talking about how they have to make sure it is an integrated response, and not just sure it is an integrated response, and notjust dealing with what is happening in Hebden Bridge but further liver and in some of those other places they were talking about as well . Absolutely. First of all, i am delighted, it is very progressive and forwardthinking. We cannot simply keep building brick walls to stop flooding. I look on flood Risk Management as a puzzle of many pieces, all fitting together to reduce flood risk. And that does include the integrated approaches, working with nature, slowing the
flow, holding back water, thinking about sustainable urban drainage, and adapting the way we live in our homes. That is really one of the things i am very passionate about, Building Back better. So if we do flood, we can recover more quickly, and if we can go back to Hebden Bridge, i have written an e book, and it features lots of case studies from businesses in Hebden Bridge you have adapted to allow the floodwater m, have adapted to allow the floodwater in, but minimise the damage. Many of them were opening only a handful of days. So i do welcome the £10,000 towards Building Back betterfrom flooding, and i also welcome the fa ct flooding, and i also welcome the fact they are going to reward people by reducing the policy prices when they fit flood defences to their home. So we have to do now stop thinking about building walls, but
working with nature, not against nature, building and restoring peat in higher catchments and making sponge like areas to soak up the water, especially in urban environments, where we have so much concrete and the rain falls and it hits the ground running, straight into our homes and businesses, thinking about Building Back greener and better, and very importantly, i am very pleased about the review into not building on the flood plane. 11 of houses were built on the floodplain in 2018 and with flooding sets to get worse by 59 , more rain by 2050, we cannot continue to build on floodplain u nless continue to build on floodplain unless of course they are hardened houses. We were speaking to a flood risk assessor last time everything was flooded back in february. They we re was flooded back in february. They were also talking about the fact
there is so much concrete around, we have covered a formerly green area with concrete, and then that sort of enables that flow to happen much more quickly into towns and cities. You were talking about a sort of replanting of trees, the use of peat and things like that. Lots of those feel like long Term Solutions. Is this money, and the previous money that was announced, going to allow that was announced, going to allow that long Term Solution to help along things now that can help as well . Absolutely. We have got to remember that trees do not grow overnight. In fact, flood defences, even shop shovel ready ones, are not built overnight, and restoration of peat and bog lands and working with nature ta kes peat and bog lands and working with nature takes time. But we have the evidence. There is a wonderful scheme called slow the flow in cold valley, which is making tremendous improvements. My advice to everybody is to stay aware of the flood risk, it is not going to go away
overnight, but this is long term, so it is long term planning, very progressive learning, working with nature and not against it, and we have all got to continue signing up for Flood Warnings and being aware of flooding, and i know the Environment Agency are doing a sterling job, right now they have been delivering things on the ground and working to improve the Flood Warning service to. Thank you very much for that. That was mary, a flood risk consultant working with the Environment Agency. And we will be speaking to the environment secretary, george eustace, about that and about the issue of Face Coverings in a couple of minutes. You are watching bbc breakfast, still to come. Well find out about the rare vulture from the alps, thats bigger than a golden eagle, and is currently living in the Peak District. Imagine how good it would be to see Something Like that. |j imagine how good it would be to see Something Like that. I didnt see quite a few twitches up there this weekend, i wonder if that is what they were looking for. We will take a look at but a bit later on. Beautiful. Are these guys there once
for those vultures . We will find out soon. For those vultures . We will find out soon. And here is official birdwatcher, mr matthew, with the details. What is going on behind you there . That looks incredible from cape town. It certainly does. I thought we would take a quick look across south africa. It is winter, of course. We saw the scenes in hebden ridge with our own winter a short time ago. A massive storm has hit the city over the last 36 hours. This is seafoam, organic matter which has been whipped up into what is almost a bubble bath, pushing ashore. Rooms have been ripped off buildings, i can show you this just to make a comparison to the dull and grey conditions you will see today. Maybe they will feel a bit more palatable. In Northern Ireland we are likely to see some of the witness conditions through today. Some sunshine here and there. Certainly a sunny start across parts of eastern scotland, north east england, and for some in
the south, this is where the best of the south, this is where the best of the club breaks are. The white cloud you can see on the satellite imagery is the thicker cloud that has been spreading towards Northern Ireland. It will continue to bring outbreaks of rain through the rest of this morning and into this afternoon. A few showers in northern scotland. Maybe some isolated showers and southern counties of england later. Most southern counties of england later. M ost pla ces southern counties of england later. Most places will be dry apart from spots of drizzle. You gone you will be sheltered from the breeze which is keeping things on the cool side to this stage in july. It should still feel warm enough. Certainly kootenai, cloud becomes extensive once again. 0utbreaks becomes extensive once again. Outbreaks of rain coming and going in the west, temperatures dropping, a fairly in the west, temperatures dropping, afairly mild in the west, temperatures dropping, a fairly mild night, 10 14 or 15 degrees. As for wednesday, and even grey today, particularly across
western areas. Heavier bursts in the morning and late into western scotla nd morning and late into western scotland during the afternoon, even eastern areas a bit cloudy through tomorrow. Sunny spells, here and there, maybe west wales, cornwall, devon with the best of those. Temperature similar to today. As we going to thursday, optimistic a bit more sunshine, west of scotland, Northern Ireland, more cloud on breeze and further rain and drizzle times. Sunshine, south westerly wind. North east scotland. More widely into the 20s for england and wales. That could cloud across scotla nd wales. That could cloud across scotland and Northern Ireland, this weather front, a zone of wet weather. Bringing some wetter, windier conditions across scotland, Northern Ireland. Some eastern areas
dry. Sunshine to be found across england and wales, and temperatures lifting into the mid 20s towards the south east corner. Next weather update before eight oclock. Hello, this is breakfast with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. Its 7 32. Shoppers will have to wear Face Coverings in shops from the 24th of july. Downing street said there is growing evidence that Face Coverings protect people from coronavirus in enclosed spaces. Police will be enforcing the new rules and those who fail to comply will face a fine of up to £100. Scientists advising the government say a second wave of Coronavirus Infections this winter could be more serious than the first, with 120,000 hospital deaths a reasonable worst Case Scenario. A report commissioned by the governments
chief scientific advisor says action must be taken now to minimise the risk of a second peak and recommends Vulnerable People and healthcare workers be vaccinated against the flu early. A Public Information campaign and Rapid Monitoring system to stop local outbreaks. £170 million will be invested into flood defence projects across the uk to better protect homes, businesses and jobs following the winters extreme weather. The government has also revealed how a previously announced funding package of 5. 2 billion will be spent. We can speak now to the environment secretary, George Eustice, from our westminster newsroom. £5. 2 billion was announced in the budget in march and there is an extra £170 million into shovel ready as the quote is from your department, flood defence projects. Where will the first phase be going m, where will the first phase be going in, and when . We got a number of
projects across the country from shrewsbury right down to cornwall. Lots of blood projects that have been ready to go or getting there but just needed a been ready to go or getting there butjust needed a little bit of extra funding to get them over the line. Sometimes these are partnerships funded, there is local authority money, money that comes from the Environment Agency from the floods programme. Injecting that extra cash to get them moving. Are they starting this week . Not starting as quickly as this week but as soon as starting as quickly as this week but as soon as possible, now theyve got the money in place. You say its shovel ready. Im interested as to when they begin. Shovel ready in terms of fully worked up plans. All of the hydrology assessments on the river have been done. The planning
consent in place, its now a question ofjust consent in place, its now a question of just starting consent in place, its now a question ofjust starting the building, getting the contract is going but i suspect it wont happen as quickly as today. When the project is going on under way, when will you be in a position to guarantee people say, from Hebden Bridge, severn valley, that they will be defended against floods and businesses will be safe . The programme weve set out of £5. 2 billion means that between now and 2027, over 330,000 additional homes will be protected from flooding and what we set out in our policy that accompany this announcement today is some key approaches. First of all trying to manage flood risk on a whole water catchment. Looking for insta nce whole water catchment. Looking for instance right across the severn,
putting on natural floodplains, diverging water. Trying to make communities more resilient by looking at the planning and strengthening the planning presumption against building. Planting more trees upstream. Helping to reduce pressure flooding. Come this winter. Have you got an estimation or target about how many fewer homes and businesses will be hit by floods. We got a target between now and 2027. Up to 30,000 homes will be better protected against floods as each of these projects are built, the protections develop further. Last year, over 30,000 homes were protected, having those flooding incidents, with those
measures put in place in recent yea rs. Measures put in place in recent years. This is a developing suite of protections as each project is built, protections get out of flooding has also been growing in recent decades. Can we talk about facemasks, please . Lots of questions about it. We know that from next friday, it will be mandatory to wear them in shops. Lots of questions from our guests. This man says hes in scotland, weve been wearing them in scotland, weve been wearing them in scotland, easy pc, his words. The question, if its important and by implication it must be, why wait 11 days and what damage with a further delay do . I think the important thing to note is with haddad as an advisory since may that people should wear masks in enclosed spaces. When they are indoors, out and about. With had advised that
they should wear masks. Injune we strengthen that advice to make it mandatory in Public Transport. As we have started to ease the lockdown, we are extending that to make it mandatory in retail environments. We wa nt to mandatory in retail environments. We want to give retail time to plan and prepare and the people, and retailers to put in measures to encourage people to do this. People havent got one. Making sure they havent got one. Making sure they have a mask before going shopping. It doesnt take ten days. It gives people time to prepare. I suspect that now weve made this announcement, a lot of people start wearing a mask anyway, even though it wont be mandatory until the 24th. Michael gove at the weekend said the government has faith in the public, its been responsible enough to not need this to be mandatory. What has changed . Whats changed i
suppose, this is something the government has been considering. But wasnt ready to announce since it hadnt obeyed a decision. Assuming the public is intelligent and responsible enough to make an announcement. We do think they are intelligent and responsible enough and thats why a lot of people have. When you make something mandatory as we are doing now for retail environments, it sends a much stronger signal that people follow in greater numbers. A lot of people have been wearing masks, its mandatory on Public Transport and people have been doing that since june. Itsjust people have been doing that since june. Its just that next step, we are announcing today so the position has changed today. It become mandatory until the 24th but from today, a lot of people start marrying those masks. Sarah says, weve been in supermarkets
throughout the lot done. Since the rate of infection has gone down, remaining open with no facemasks at all, why now . I think a couple of things have happened. First of all, the advice from the world health 0rganization has been evolving. Prior tojune, 0rganization has been evolving. Prior to june, their advice was quite sceptical about facemasks. They strengthened our guidance in june gave an advisory the people should wear masks when out and about because it could prevent the onward transmission so we changed our guidance at that point. The second thing thats happened, back in late march and april, we were in full lock down so everybody was at home and its only really as we started to emerge from lock down and weve changed some of these measures. But you could still go to the supermarket during lockdown. Yes, but people generally went out and about. Measuring the overall risk and taking proportionate mitigations to deal with the risk that is there
and as you open up more parts of the economy including pubs and restau ra nts a nd economy including pubs and restaurants and as youve opened retail environments, obviously there is therefore a slightly increased risk to looking at other measures to try to mitigate that from the measures that the stores themselves put in but now also asking people to wear facemasks and making that mandatory, thats part of the mix and we are dealing with an extraordinary situation as we try to control this virus and weve been evolving this policy as we emerge from lock down, its right that we consider other mitigations that might help control the virus. |j consider other mitigations that might help control the virus. I got three quick questions. Will supermarket visitors be required to wear a mask . Are not being covered, if you going to most shop, you will see staff have either been wearing face shields or base masks. It wont bea face shields or base masks. It wont be a compulsory requirement, it wont always be right for every
setting in a retail environment. Those working behind stores and so on but retailers themselves have been making the rightjudgements. Johnny says im glad to hear wearing facemasks is mandatory in shops but whats the difference between going toa whats the difference between going to a shop or a pub or restaurant where you dont need to wear one . Im slight confused as many more will be. Its about managing the overall risk and obviously he is right, is there a risk of transmission in pubs and restaurants . Transmission in pubs and restau ra nts . Yes, transmission in pubs and restaurants . Yes, of course there is. Thats why they put in place other measures. Sanitising tables, putting social distance, collecting names on arrival. And so on. They put in place measures but having a facemask if you are trying to eat a meal is simply not tactical and we have to be pragmatic and say we want to manage the overall risk so its appropriate for us to have facemasks
in retail environments can people can wear them in retail environments can people can wearthem in in retail environments can people can wear them in those retail environments where its not possible such as when you are trying to eat a meal ina such as when you are trying to eat a meal in a restaurant. Its not possible, we have to accept that. Quick one from david. When these become compulsory, there must be a price limit placed by the government on price. He says the cost in his local shoppers gone up by 1000 . We have to buy these and be responsible, how are you going to help with keeping the prices down and for us not to be taken advantage of . We been clear from the very start, people can wear a Face Covering, and i think a lot of different manufacturers have also stepped in to help and have turned to manufacturing just the basic cloth Face Coverings. Havent got to be medical grade facemask, any type of covering will be sufficient for this purpose. I do accept what he
says, obviously theres been huge demand for these facemasks but have also seen some demand for these facemasks but have also seen some very demand for these facemasks but have also seen some very good charities, local groups that have set up and made these Face Coverings available for people who cant afford to buy one. Environment secretary George Eustice, thank you for your time. And thank you for your comments and texts a nd and thank you for your comments and texts and tweets. The right decision, i visited a local supermarket in leeds, the majority wearing facemasks but kevin says i go to wearing facemasks but kevin says i gotoa wearing facemasks but kevin says i go to a corner shop with two people, i have to wear one but a pub with 100, i dont and questioning the commonsense of one rule for one and one for the other. We did ask them. Its coming up to 7 45am. Time to talk to sally who has one of our favourite people on the programme from the sporting world. Good morning. The olympics are not happening this year but if you are missing yourfix, fear
happening this year but if you are missing your fix, fear not, happening this year but if you are missing yourfix, fear not, we have you covered. From today the bbc is showing highlights from the past three games, including key moments through the eyes of our greatest 0lympians. It all starts tonight, with Rebecca Adlington looking back at her goals in beijing. 48 years since a british woman one gold music. The world record, by 2. 1 a massive, massive world record. For britain, gold medal in the Swimming Pool and a gold medal and a new world record. Applause. We can speak to rebecca now she joins us
from her home in stockport. Good morning to you. Wait to see you. Good morning you were such a baby what has it been like looking back at yourself all those years ago . You were so young. Back at yourself all those years ago . You were so younglj back at yourself all those years ago . You were so young. I have pretty much did that, i cringed a little bit it was a very long time ago. Amazing, as well. My memories from beijing after my memories, so i see them through my eyes. So it is so see them through my eyes. So it is so nice to watch it, a different take, and hearing the commentary. 0bviously take, and hearing the commentary. Obviously we dont get to hear it. I had never actually watched london back either. That was the first time watching them back. That was a very, very strange thing. It was really nice because my life is so farfrom that now, but it was nice to step back into that role and relive those days. And also, i hope i am not giving too much away, we get a bit more information about what the run up more information about what the run up to 2008 in particular was like for you in this programme, dont we . Because there was some drama going into beijing, you were not that well, is that right . Yeah, i had a chest infection when we got to the holding camp injapan. So it is managing all of those things, and i think with a lot of effort, especially 0lympians, that is what is nice about this show, you get a lot more insight, because normally you just see us raise, and then you see us do one interview after our race, which is only one or two, so it was nice for all of our athletes, myself included, to be able to share more, and give that behind the scenes look at what is going on at what it is really like for us. You just dont really get that chance to open up so much because you are on this well wind after your race, so it was nice to share that as well. And does it slightly make things better, looking back and being able to talk about it, because of course we dont have an 0lympics it, because of course we dont have an olympics to watch and enjoy this year. Definitely. I have been watching loads of stuff on telly during this period, as we all have, andi
during this period, as we all have, and i have seen old Football Games being replayed, it is nice for the 0lympians to get in there because we are 0lympians to get in there because we a re really 0lympians to get in there because we are really only on tv once every four years. Everybody always says to me, when is the swimming on tv . And i say, we only have one major competition every year it is really difficult. This years 0lympics has obviously been postponed, but it gives us the chance to get the feeling and get the buzz, and those people who love the olympics, they get to relive it all, and all those memories come flooding back. We had adam pt on a couple of weeks ago, he was campaigning at the time for Swimming Pools to reopen. You must be pleased that now that is starting to happen. How important is it that people get back in the pool . Massively important. We all expected it on the fourth ofjuly so it was a big shock to everybody. But it is nice to finally have a date. I think that has been part of all of this, the unknown. Now that we have date we have something to look forward to. Iam we have something to look forward to. I am dying to go for a swim
myself. Just from a Mental Health perspective, physically, as well, just how crucial exercise it is, for a lot of people who are injured or pregnant, for older people, is their livelihood. So that has been taken away, and they get that back, people are able to go on holidays now, so safety is a huge part of this, and actually people can now get back to taking their kids to swim and have that life skill. And how important has exercise been for you during lockdown . Has it kept you on an even keel . I know you have a busy life of a young child and lots going on. Definitely. I think it has been so important for all of us, i think, it is just important for all of us, i think, it isjust a important for all of us, i think, it is just a case of mentally, as well, just doing something, so that i am not just sat at the same place all the time, and being able to do my hour of exercise outside, being able to walk and be outside. I have been
doing my exercise at home, it has been very different but awesome, physically as well as mentally. You have a five year old, as i mentioned. How have you been managing with the homeschooling . Have you been doing much . To be honest, i dont really class it is homeschooling. It isjust honest, i dont really class it is homeschooling. It is just more play, more fun. Showers only in reception. So it has been a bit of a challenge to come up with ideas, but we have certainly managed it and had a great time as well. That is great to hear. It is lovely to talk to you. We look forward to reliving those brilliant 0lympic memories. Cant wait to watch. That was Rebecca Adlington talking to us here this morning. It is great to be able to look back on, and actually remember some of the fantastic moments we have in olympic history. Rebecca clearly one of our biggest stars. Yeah, a bit of beijing, bit of 2012 and 2016 on the way as well. I think claire balding and gabby logan bring it all together, dont they . The top 25 0lympic moments, on july
together, dont they . The top 25 0lympic moments, onjuly 25. Lots to look forward to. Fabulous. You need to know about what is happening with the economy this morning. Sean is the economy this morning. Sean is the man to tell us about it. He is keeping busy, i the man to tell us about it. He is keeping busy, lam not sure if he is helping or hindering, but he is certainly looking at some gdp and economic figures for us this morning. Step away from the boxes, sean good morning, everybody. Just having a look. It is always fascinating to see weather it is some lounges, fire guards, glass art being delivered today. 0nline deliveries, we know, anybody who has been in lockdown and having to make purchases online, one pa rt having to make purchases online, one part of the economy that has had a better run over recent weeks and months is Online Shopping. But the figures we have had this morning, they dont quite show the signs of recovery in made that someone looking for. We know the economy fell by 20 in april, in may, it grew by just fell by 20 in april, in may, it grew byjust1. 8 . There are lots of numbers here. There is one chart that jumped out at numbers here. There is one chart thatjumped out at me this morning. Ijust want thatjumped out at me this morning. I just want to show you this one chart of how the economy has grown
over the years, and you can see a big drop, it falls quite some way, and there is only a small uptick just at the end. We will show you that later. I will have a chat now, just going to grab a microphone, we can chat to the professor of economics at lancaster university. Grant, good morning to you. What do you make of these figures . |j grant, good morning to you. What do you make of these figures . I think we need to consider how long ago these figures relate to. We are now in the middle ofjuly, and these figures relate to the three months up figures relate to the three months up to the end of may, where we saw a decline in output over the previous three months of 19 . So that was a little bit better than the decline we saw last month, but it is still a very substantial downward turn stop in may, we still had retail close, people forget that now. People are used to the shops being open. Retail was still closed. We wouldnt have expected a very big recovery in the month of may. So this light recovery of 1. 8 that we have had during the month of may is a little bit encouraging. What does it tell us
about how peoples lives were actually playing out in that time . think what we really have to look at is how this varies sector by sector. Looking at the three month figures, we had a collapse of 71 in hospitality, 29 in construction, 29 transport, 15 in manufacturing. These are big falls, but particularly hospitality, which of course has been the last of the sectors to start up again after lockdown. There are big differences across the sectors. Key to the recovery will be how those differences are managed. Where we are this morning at dpd, they have been telling us today about how they have 15 new Distribution Centres that they are opening, they were only planning on opening three. 6000 newjobs on the way. You can see the amount parcels being delivered here. Is that he had to stay . Is that going to change how the economy will grow in the months to come . M going to change how the economy will grow in the months to come . It is huge, this is really busy this morning, and they have been having record sales in temp remark. That is
asa record sales in temp remark. That is as a result of the move to Online Shopping, which was forced on people in the retail shops were closed. People had to start shopping online. So this has reinforced the trend that was already there with Online Shopping becoming more prominent. It isa shopping becoming more prominent. It is a real challenge for the high street, of course. Itjust reflects changes in the way that we are living our lives. It is clearly not enough when we look at where we want to be. People talk about what the shape of the recovery will look like. There has been a big drop down. What will be needed for us to get back to how we were in february . There are some indications to the shape of recovery. Chaps payments and the manufacturing temp on recovered very quickly, but we need to look at the different sectors and how late hospitality has been in coming back after the lockdown, how effective that recovery and hospitality will be. We still have large eve nts hospitality will be. We still have large events not happening. So for some sectors the recovery will be much slower than for others, and
those sectors really need to be merged very carefully as we move on. Geraint, thank you for being with us this morning. It is addictive, isnt it . For all the spending that we might have been doing and getting our goods delivered over the recent months, it has not been enough to get the economy back up and running in the month of may. The economy grew1. 8 , in the month of may. The economy grew 1. 8 , which sounds like a lot, but after a more than 20 fall in april, it is still a long way to go. Thank you, sean. Good to see you this morning. See you later on. One of the biggest birds ever seen in the wild in the uk has been spotted roosting in the Peak District National Park. This bearded vulture which has a wing span that can reach more than nine feet has attracted birdwatchers from across the country. Its thought to only be the second time its been seen here. Lets talk to tim birch from the Derbyshire Wildlife trust, who has actually seen it for himself. So, tell us a little bit about the bearded vulture . My goodness, it is
absolutely amazing. You will never get a chance to see such an amazing bird again. We have seen it flying in this area, it is the most incredible bird. We believe it is coming from the alps. It is a young bird, two years old, only the second ever cited in the uk, one of the rarest birds ever to turn up here. It has just been so exciting to see this bird flying in the sky above your head is in a National Park in the uk, it has been truly fantastic. Hundreds of people have been so excited to see this bird. This is what it is about, connecting people to amazing wildlife. My goodness. It has been unbelievable. You say that you think it came from the alps. How has it ended up here . It is quite an extraordinary journey has it ended up here . It is quite an extraordinaryjourney it has had. It was seen extraordinaryjourney it has had. It was seen in belgium injune. A young bird, possibly from the french or the swiss alps, they have been carrying out a Reintroduction Programme there for many years. This is the most endangered vulture in europe. This is a young bird that has wandered away from where it was
born. They do tend to wander quite a bit when they are young. It has ended up in the Peak District. We expect it will go back to the alps, because it clearly isnt going to breed here. Normally they are not found below two or 3000 feet, so high up in the alps and the mountains, it is extraordinary it has ended up here. Some amazing pictures. We know you have to protect these birds and you have understandable safety concerns as well, but give us an idea, you talk about reconnecting with nature, what is it like to see Something Like that flying above your head . Well, the Wildlife Trust are working hard to bring wildlife to everybody. Getting more nature back in our lives is so important, mentally and for our well being, and people have just been overjoyed to see this bird. We are concerned about its safety, it is an it is in an area where there has been ongoing legal bird of prey persecution. We urge everybody to look after this bird, enjoy it while it is here. It gives you a grim somewhat a while the future could be like the whole of the uk. It is so uplifting,
especially in these times of covid 19. I have been so excited to see how amazing it has been for people to see such a wonderful bird. It has been absolutely incredible. You paint a beautiful picture for us this morning. 0ur viewers have seen the pictures and hopefully they will bea the pictures and hopefully they will be a sighting of it again today. That was tim birch, and we were looking at the bearded vulture, he was describing beautifully what it means to see it. With that view, why wouldnt it be there . Are you going to be able to enjoy some good views of sunshine this week . Matthew can tell us all about that. Good morning. A lovely sky above scarborough. Yes, a beautiful start up there at the moment. Not a bad start to your tuesday, parts of eastern england, particularly the north east of england and into the east of scotland, we have got skies like this. I think for the vast majority, skies a bit closer to these lines, ca ptu red skies a bit closer to these lines, captured by one of our weather watchers in kent, just a short while ago. Figure cloud is producing rain and drizzle in places, which has been coming in off the atlantic
through the night. This ticket cloud will produce wetter and wetter conditions across Northern Ireland as we go through the day but you can still see the gaps in the cloud further east, with sunny spells to come, parts of eastern scotland, north east england, we may see a few brea ks north east england, we may see a few breaks into cloud toward south southern england, but the odd showers are still possible this afternoon, as we have seen in northern scotland. The wettest of all will be in parts of Northern Ireland, going towards the argyle, butte, and galloway area. A Western North westerly direction for the winds, not particularly warm, not strong but keeping temperatures down in the teens. Down from where we should be in july. In the teens. Down from where we should be injuly. May be down to 20 celsius in the south eastern corner. There is a slightly humid field to temper things. Through this evening at overnight we will see clear skies briefly across eastern parts, but overall, a cloudy night to come. 0utbreaks overall, a cloudy night to come. Outbreaks of rain coming and going, especially in the west. A mild enough starting tomorrow morning, temperatures for most will be in double figures. If anything,
tomorrow, the skies will be more widely great. They will be some rain and drizzle, especially during the morning. Heavier bursts in northern and western scotland, may a few cloud breaks into west wales, devon and cornwall, overall on wednesday it will be a cloudy day, with temperatures very similar to todays values. A bit of optimism for breaks in that cloud at least in the morning on thursday for england and wales. The best of the sunshine probably needs to parts of scotland. The north east could see temperatures of up to 23. More recent updates of rain and western scotla nd recent updates of rain and western scotland late on into the west and north of ireland. Much of england and wales, we will see temperatures lifting into the 20s a bit more as we go through to thursday. Still some sunny we go through to thursday. Still some sunny spells, but the cloud generally increases as we go through the afternoon. And then, to see out the afternoon. And then, to see out the week, a weather front pushing south as we go into friday, bringing outbreaks of rain again in the west of scotland, and Northern Ireland in particular. But will trundle slowly south as we go through saturday, and before it arrives in the south east we could temperatures into the
mid 20s in the south east corner. 0verall, temperatures lifting a bit through the increasing sunshine developing this weekend. Naga and dan have your headlines next. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. 0ur headlines today Face Coverings will be compulsory in shops in england from the end of next week. Anyone refusing to wear one can be fined £100. The duchess of cambridge chats exclusively to breakfast about motherhood, and why shes backing a new bbc initiative to support families with young children. In the first few months, there was huge amount of support from midwives and Health Visitors and things but from then onwards, there is a massive gap before they then start school. The economy grew by 1. 8 in may that is still a fifth smaller than in
february. Well be speaking to winners like this parcel Distribution Centre and losers in the current economic climate. Its tuesday the 14th ofjuly. Our top story wearing Face Coverings in shops in england is to become compulsory, the government has confirmed. The new rules are set to come into force next friday, the 24th ofjuly. And those who fail to comply will face fines of up to £100. Enforcement will be carried out by the police. Here to tell us more is our political correspondent, chris mason. Chris, good to talk to you. We spoke to environment secretary George Easter earlier, trying to clear up why now, why not until friday, and why now, why not until friday, and why the advice has changed . Why now, why not until friday, and why the advice has changed7m why now, why not until friday, and why the advice has changed . It has been like away says album titles, whats the story, definitely maybe
we will have two way Face Coverings from a week on friday in england. It is mandatory in scotland already, as it isa is mandatory in scotland already, as it is a naked number of countries in europe and around the world. Why the change . We put that pointed to the environment secretary, george eustace. The latest visitor to this chair in the last half hour. Here was his justification for the change of heart. It is about measuring the overall risk and taking proportionate mitigations to deal with the risk that is there. As you open up more of the economy, including pubs and restaurants, as you open retail environments, there isa you open retail environments, there is a slightly increased risk. So looking at other measures to try to mitigate that, from measures that the stores themselves put input also now asking people to worse face masks and making it mandatory, that is part of the mix. It is an
extraordinary situation as we try to control this virus and we have been evolving policy. As we emerge from locked and it is right we consider other mitigations to help control the virus. Let as we emerge from lockdown. That is a euphemism, evolving our policy they have been all over the shop, that is the blunt reality on Face Coverings in england. The Prime Minister on friday said maybe, michael gove on sunday said no, then and yesterday robert buckland, thejustice secretary, was in this very chair and said perhaps they would be mandatory. That is definitely maybe, and now have yes as the policy this morning. They had long argued it was advisable to put on a Face Covering ina shop advisable to put on a Face Covering in a shop in england but were relu cta nt in a shop in england but were reluctant until now to change the law. They make the argument that science has firmed up, that the case for wearing Face Coverings has got
stronger and it is part of their strategy to try to tempt us back to the high streets, to try to help shoppers bounce. A change in policy coming, and shoppers bounce. A change in policy coming, and i guess potentially a change in culture as we get used to certainly in england and already in scotla nd certainly in england and already in scotland having a Face Covering about our person encase we need to nip for about our person encase we need to nipfora pint about our person encase we need to nip for a pint of semi skimmed. thought you were going to say else, chris i did not know what i was going to say myself skinned myself, get back to your 0asis songs. I am all over the semi skimmed scientists advising the government say a second wave of Coronavirus Infections this winter could be more serious than the first, with 120,000 hospital deaths a reasonable worst Case Scenario. A report commissioned by the chief scientific advisor says action must be taken now, while the infection rate is low, to minimise the risk of a second peak over the winter months. Its recommendations include early flu vaccinations for health
and social care workers, a Public Information campaign and a Rapid Monitoring system to stop local outbreaks. In the last hour, its been revealed the uk economy bounced back slightly in may from a record low the month before. Seans at a parcel Distribution Centre looking at the numbers for us this morning. The expectations worsen a rebound of sorts, but was it enough . Let the expectations were for a refund. We had the full in april, these figures give as a length of what happened in may. Some construction sites felt more confident about reopening, Garden Centres, diy stores, it meant there could be more economic activity. We produced a bit more in may, we grew by 1. 8 . The one child that almost tells the story from the
0ffice that almost tells the story from the office of National Statistics de one chart that almost tells the story. It fell by more than 20 in april, and the tiny growth in may. There is a way for economic recovery to go to get us back to where we we re to go to get us back to where we were at the beginning of the year. Some signs that House Building and manufacturing were recovering a little towards the end of this period that the data looks at this morning in may, but the collapse in the construction sector, the Services Industry we saw over the end of march and throughout april is weighing very heavily. That plays through into peoples livelihoods because they have been either furloughed for those recent weeks and not producing as much as they we re and not producing as much as they were if they were on the payroll, and then we are starting to see lots of businesses announcing big redundancies, it will filter into thejobs figures when redundancies, it will filter into the jobs figures when we look at Unemployment Rate and the amount of
people out of work. The recovery began in may, but only a very small amountand began in may, but only a very small amount and lots of people will be looking for more strength in the months to come, particularly in hospitality and the events industry, they have been hit hard. Thank you. We will hopefully see shown later. Good morning if you havejust switched on your television. The duchess of cambridge has told bbc breakfast there is a massive gap in support given to parents after the first few months of a childs life until they start school. Its something she says she also experienced as a new mum. The duchess was speaking as part of her involvement with the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative. Aimed at the under fours, it wants to help parents develop their childrens communication skills. Research shows that when children start behind, they stay behind. Louise went to meet the duchess. And we can speak to louise now. This is nice, to interview louise on bbc breakfast what is quite clear
is this is an issue she is thoroughly engaged in. Tell us a bit about her involvement. Good morning, everybody. It is very clear that she is absolutely passionate about early yea rs is absolutely passionate about early years development, this goes back to before she was a mother, before she was married, to her university days. That is why she is supporting the bbc Initiative Tiny Happy People which is all about communicating, helping parents communicate with their really small children. I met her and their really small children. I met herandi their really small children. I met her and i met three of the parents involved in the project and we had a really good conversation about the stresses of parenting and, of course, life in lockdown. She was really open and candid. She told us for example but even she found home schooling her three children really challenging and she has a new found respect for teachers. Lets look at that conversation. Music. Hi hello its like a game of hide and seek in the woods. Thank you so much. Very nice to see you. Isnt this lovely . Im ryan, this is mia, shes eight months old today. Her favourite word now to say is dada, and she loves to try and blow raspberries. Hello, my name is henrietta, and this is my partner. My name is abu. This is our lovely daughter, amira. She is almost one and she isjust learning how to stand up. Hi, im kerry. And im darren. And this is dexter. Hes two. He now strings words together into sentences. Pigeon pigeon . Oh, well done never said that word before. Hello thanks for coming down. How are you guys doing . Is that your digger . Very nice. Louis would like that digger. It is such a fun age because they start to, like, express more. She can now scrunch up her nose and everything. We play peekaboo a lot as well. So thats amazing. But yeah, ive learned that through tiny happy people as well, how much food she should have. And her first word was dada as well. 0h, amazing. I was trying to get her to say dada and it worked. Dada there you go you are absolutely passionate about early years development. Yes, very passionate. People sort of assume its because youre a mum, but actually it goes back quite far for you, doesnt it . Yeah, it goes back a long way. I think, you know, in a way, lots of the parents here and lots of the parents and families that you speak to, i think they all know how important it is to look after our children,
and to nurture and care for young kids. But i didnt realise, before i started all this work, i didnt realise just how important it is. Some of the Science Behind all of it is extraordinary, its sort of 90 of our adult brain grows before the age of five, and it just shows what a precious time this is and what an amazing opportunity us as parents have to really nurture their minds, and really put them in the best possible position for their future lives. Dada, dada . Dada, dada. At the heart of the bbcs Tiny Happy People Initiative, a simple message. Talk to your children from as early as possible. Want some more yoghurt . Are you making a mess . mess is good. Its important, because more than one in four children starting Primary School in england dont reach the required level of literacy development, and its a similar picture right across the uk. The duchess of cambridge has been involved for some time. Chatter. Today, she and i are meeting three families at sandringham to find out how theyre getting on. Shes very chatty she is. She learns a lot from us, she copies a lot. Like eating shoes does that happen a lot . You just want to eat . Yeah my children have bottomless pits. I feel like a constant feeding machine for them just a few more bits . He is the same age, isnt he, as prince louis . Whens his birthday . The 2nd of june. 0k, gosh, yeah, very close together. Louis end of may. Hello i wasjust saying, louis doesnt understand social distancing. So he goes up wanting to cuddle everything, and particularly any babies youngerthan him. What kind of resources did you use with yours, and are still using, obviously . Well, i think its really hard, there is so much focus, particularly during pregnancy, and when youve just got a newborn baby, is on the physical development of your baby, and you as a mother. But what i think was really missing, and what i found was missing, was the support and how to help their social and Emotional Development you know, how do you interact with your baby, what is it that you should be doing . Not perhaps. In the first few months, theres a huge amount of support from midwives and Health Visitors and things, but from then onwards, theres a massive gap before they start school, and its that bit that i think you really need the support. Have you learned anything new from being part of tiny happy people that perhaps you didnt know before . You dontjust need all these toys. You canjust use something simple like a tree or, you know, a bit of paper rolled up. And just a pen to paper is the best way for them to learn, is what i find. And talking. Because talking is free, isnt it . Speech is free, and we dont use it enough. I think the science has also shown how important relationships are, and safe and nurturing environments are, for children, particularly under five. And thats what really matters. Actually, its not necessarily about the toys. Its not the exciting places you go with them, its how you as parents interact with them. Thats what really counts. What is that . What is it . Can you say pasteur . Can you say princess kate . Princess kate. You are so clever look at you, so many words
me and her mum broke up three months ago, we have been co parenting. Particularly for first time dads, is it quite daunting . It is very scary. With the midwives, nuns get more support, ifeel with the midwives, nuns get more support, i feel the dads do with the midwives, nuns get more support, ifeel the dads do not with the midwives, nuns get more support, i feel the dads do not get as much support as they could. At the months go through it all, all respect others. He has taken to running everywhere. respect others. He has taken to running everywhere. I know that. You purchase louis down, he is off. Having a child young, all eyes are on you. Do you feel you are being judged . I feel there is a stigma towards young parents. You dont know what it is like to have a baby, you are young. Ijust take each day as it comes and you just do your best. There is an assumption that you should know that, you should
know what to do. Do you think people are fearful to reach out for information . I think so, are fearful to reach out for information . Ithink so, ithink are fearful to reach out for information . I think so, i think we have heard it from a couple of parents today, i hear it a lot, there is a sense of being judged if they feel they are not doing a particularly good job or something is not right, they do not feel they can reach for help, which is very sad because we all need support, i needed support. We have to work with those around us who can be there as our lifelines, really. Ryan, iron interested in what you said about she has five different cries . Im interested. There is a fake cry if i need to, say, get a drink. It is like, show me attention. There is one cry if you are watching tv, she is sitting on your lap, you think she is crying, you look at her and she is crying, you look at her and she starts smiling. Then there is
this cry, which is another attention cry. And that she has a feeding cry, which is very more high pitched, then you have a night terror cry. That must be really hard, the middle of the night is so lonely. Ryan saying how his baby has five different cries, he has learned a huge amount from tiny happy people. It is information like that i wish i had had as a first time mum, so many parents, it is gold dust for families to be given those tips and tools to use, particularly in its first five years. He is now stringing a sentence together. Amazing, so good. Money, come on, please come and play with me. Show the princess and staff. Can you stand on one leg . Well done how have you guys been through lockdown . It has been so hard . I work a lot, it takes up a lot of my time, at least 40 hours a week, so may an at home, it is a lot different to being at work, i am seeing things i dont usually see as a parent. It gives me time to spend with my daughter and bonds. It gives me time to spend with my daughterand bonds. It is gives me time to spend with my daughter and bonds. It is a very beautiful thing. It is very hard, daughter and bonds. It is a very beautifulthing. It is very hard, i did not see my dad or any of my family. We months, until boris said about eating it, it was a struggle. Any of my family. Months. About eating it, it was a struggle. Any of my family. Months. They have spoken about the attentiveness, you cant meet friends, it has been really ha rd you cant meet friends, it has been really hard for people they had spoken about the intensity. How do you think it will be for these pa rents you think it will be for these parents and children . you think it will be for these parents and children . I think some of the elements will be really positive, families have spent much more precious time together, and
really reflected on some of the simple things that make a difference to their kids, regularly in the first ideas. For others, it has been really tough on relationships, money issues, relationship issues, it has beena issues, relationship issues, it has been a real challenge. It has been challenging for those of people. Some parts have been really positive, spending extra time with the kids and everything, but it is equally stressful, you are in a confined space and having two home schoolers confined space and having two home schoole rs definitely a challenge. I dont have a problem. I always respected teachers but now i have a new found respect. unusually being home a lot, myself and the baby, it has been difficult with him at home with me, he has been my face a lot i am used to being home a lot. We have had lots of arguments. I just being home a lot. We have had lots of arguments. Ijust want to know
how you can work to make things again and make the love strong again. Jiggling parenting and relationship. It is such an importantjob relationship. It is such an important job as parents relationship. It is such an importantjob as parents have but it is such a huge responsibility. It is really hard. Henrietta and abu were very honest about the stresses of a child unable asian chip and lockdown as well. Massively. In a way, we have forgotten almost how important relationships are and almost. It is that connectivity, that intimacy that we have already missed during lockdown. If nothing else, hopefully one of the Silver Linings is people will really revalue how important those things are. You talked about going back to work, but you have loved being with her . We grew so
close over the lockdown, i went back to work on monday and did not see herfor to work on monday and did not see her for five days and that was so challenging. How do you accept that umbilical cord, having had the precious time together . From a personal perspective, having lots of the extra time together as a family but then being able to stand back again and go back to how things were is really hard for lots of families. I think you guys do an amazing job, and so many families, it is a hard job but what of the most important jobs we can all do is raising the next generation of happy, healthy kids, and you are doing a greatjob, ican kids, and you are doing a greatjob, i can tell. Thank you for having us. Thank you for coming, i am sorry about the weather. It has been great to meet the families, and what tiny happy to meet the families, and what tiny happy people has provided for parents is a great lifeline. There is not a huge amount of support and
guidance and it is very much needed, so guidance and it is very much needed, so well done. We just about managed to stay out of the rain. Watching that back, because of social distancing we all had to stay really far apart from each other and she really loved interacting with the parents and children, no hugs allowed, and i love that she tilted lily does not really understand about social distancing, anyone who has a two year old would understand that. She told us that louis does not really understand social distancing. She is really passionate but she is really knowledgeable and it is very clear she will continue to work on this. Studio we are mindful of being in lockdown and how life has changed, that has made a huge
difference to families . Yes, i spoke to some of the families before lockdown and we had all the conversations you would normally have a parents aboutjuggling life and having a new baby, or perhaps how they are sleeping, and there we re how they are sleeping, and there were those conversations too, but the conversation was really dominated by lockdown. It is very intense, the duchess talked about the challenges of lockdown, but the positives, for all those families there were positives, i love what she said about all others being able to spend precious time with our families. A real sense of reflection. The families were quite nervous about coming out of lockdown and she talked to them about that as well, which was great. and she talked to them about that as well, which was great. I enjoyed the way the parents and families styled it out, even though they were meeting a member of the royal family they really did. They were all very nervous beforehand but i
think she has a brilliant way of putting people at ease. I spoke to them afterwards and they said that they were nervous that she was really genuine, really authentic. She was really honest and candid with them as well. They loved the fa ct with them as well. They loved the fact that she case and Parenting Tips and they really felt that even though she is part of the royal family, that she has been through is very similar experiences as an. As she said, we all need support, she included herself in that. Did you give any tips yourself to the duchess, because youre are older now . Do you know what, i did but i cant say on camera it would have been a good tip, i know lovely to see you, thank you so much, louise. Lets speak now to dr danielle matthews, a Cognitive Development expert who has been involved with the Tiny Happy People Initiative. Good morning, i hope you enjoyed watching that, with the judges and
louises interview and speaking to the family. It is never too early to start getting children to communicate . Never too early, and tiny happy people is all about birth to four years of age, sooner sale wishes you can be talking, exchanging even wordless conversations from right at the beginning such macro as soon as they are with you. There might be people enjoying breakfast this morning, what can you do when you are enjoying a meal together . What can you do when you are enjoying a meal together7m what can you do when you are enjoying a meal together . If you are sitting with your baby and they are reaching for a spoon, you could say, oh, do you want the spoon . All these activities are tiny happy people are proposing do not have to be something new to separate you separate time out for, you can be doing then over breakfast, during pass time, out for a walk. It is all about adapting to your childss level of development. Such macro during bath time. It does not have
to cost money and can be part of normal life. It is all about interaction, conversation is free, taking time to tune into what has caught their attention, respond to them. Babies learn to communicate by doing it, the more they get a response when they are trying to communicate, they find it rewarding and they want to do it again in the future and you help them gradually to the next level. Use the example ofa to the next level. Use the example of a spoon, how long do you think it ta kes for of a spoon, how long do you think it takes for a word to sink in with a child when you are going through it with them . They can learn words in a one shot fashion, we use novel words for novel things i have never come across when studying it at the university, you see one shot learning but then it takes awhile for the word integrate into the lexicon with all the other words we know. We do this all the time, as adults, we had a new word not long
ago, brexit, that has affected how we process the word breakfast. If we heard sage, we would know that fast was coming next, but now it takes us longer to process the word breakfast. If we heard serve. Longer to process the word breakfast. If we heard serve. So brexit is affecting our breakfast . it is. And many other things as well. Something else louise, the duchess and the families touched upon, i suppose it can be daunting, thinking there is Something Else i need to do with my children, but it is blending it into daily life and not feeling you have to do 20 minutes or half in our on this everyday. There are all sorts of tips particularly naturally, were just raising awareness language is
so just raising awareness language is so important to develop, but it does not need to cost, it is not rocket science, everybody does it in their own way. There are also two activities on the website, Nursery Rhymes if you enjoy those, practical activities if you enjoy those that are all sorts of activities on the website. Thank you very much for that, danielle. If you would like to see any more of louises interview with thejudges, we see any more of louises interview with the judges, we will put eight all on the website social media. Type in tiny happy people into any search engine, bbc, you will find lots of information, things you can be working on and you can watch the full interview. You are watching bbc breakfast, still to come. Antiques roadshow will be back on bbc one in august. For the first time in more than 40 years it will be filmed on a closed set. Fiona bruce willjoin us to tell us more just before
the end of the show. Well bring you the latest news and weather shortly, but the time now is. 29 minutes past eight. We were talking about tiny happy people. Now, it is time for the weather with matt if youve been with this for the past few mornings, weve been talking about this comet, look at this beautiful time lapse image, capturing the comet through the night, pushing across the skies. You can see it across the uk with the naked eye, look to the north, fairly low on the horizon, if there is trees or houses you may not get to see it, closest to earth on the 23rd ofjuly but it should be visible through the rest of this month. You need clear skies, not a huge amount over the next few days, admittedly. This weekend, the options look better. Today, fair bit of cloud around, and in Northern Ireland, turning increasingly wet. The cloud
pushing from the atlantic during the overnight period, figure cloud towards the west, producing the rain but there are gaps in the cloud. Sunny start in eastern scotland, north east england, the cloud thinning across the south to allow the sun shine through, overall, fairly cloudy day for many, especially in the west, across Northern Ireland, the cloud of rain developing extensively through this morning. Patchy rain or drizzle elsewhere, showers later in northern scotland, the part south of england, west and north westerly breeze, temperatures down on where they should be mid july, mostly indians, highest 21 degrees with any brighter spells in the south east. Mild night tonight. Mostly in double figures. Cloud returning to western areas, the odd heavy burst of rain, as we go to tomorrow, if anything, could be a cloudier date than today. Some early brightness possible in the south east, cloud increasing, light brightness in wales and the south west of england. For most, fairly great day, rain or drizzle coming every now and again, coming and going, not a soggy date throughout. Some of the wettest conditions in the north and west of scotland.

Hello, this is breakfast with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. Good with Naga Munchetty and dan walker. Morning. It as weve been hearing this morning, in 10 days time, wearing Face Coverings will be compulsory in shops who fail to wear one will face fines up to £100. The environment secretary George Eustice told us why the government is making these changes, and why theyre not coming in until next friday. Weve had it as an advisory since may that people should wear masks in enclosed spaces, when theyre indoors and when theyre out and about. We have had it as advice that they should wear masks. Injune, we strengthened that advice to make it mandatory on Public Transport, and now, as we evolve the certain measures that we have in place,
and as we have started to ease the lockdown in other sectors of the economy, were extending that to say were going to make it mandatory in retail environments. We want to give people time to plan and prepare, and for retailers to maybe put in place measures to encourage people to do this, or potentially even to have some masks themselves if people havent got one. To give people time to make sure they have got a mask before they go shopping, its just giving people a bit of time to prepare. Here to talk us through what these Face Coverings will actually mean is virologist, professorjonathan ball. Good morning to you. Can you explain why it is important that Face Coverings are born, in particular environments, such as shops and Public Transport . Well, we know that they are in closed environments and there is not much air circulating, any droplets that you produce that are laden with virus, if you are infected, can travel through the air. The reality is Face Coverings
we now trap large droplets and therefore, if someone coughs or sneezes, it will reduce the chances of them spreading those droplets but u nfortu nately, of them spreading those droplets but unfortunately, when people go about their daily lives, they often touch those masks, if they are infected they will contaminate their hands and go on to contaminate surfaces. Its very important everybody understands that the evidence for mask wearing is not great. But also, it may come with hidden risks. That may help spread the virus. If it we re may help spread the virus. If it were up to you or would you decide to wear face masks, were up to you or would you decide to wearface masks, if were up to you or would you decide to wear face masks, if it wasnt now being made mandatory . At the moment iam being made mandatory . At the moment i am working on a hospital in nottingham, wearing a face mask is mandatory. Ive got used to it. As long as it doesnt do any harm, as long as it doesnt do any harm, as long as it doesnt do any harm, as long as at worst, it is neutral, at best it reduces, then i dont have a problem with it but i think we need a lot more evidence yet to fully understand just how effective face
masks are, when the general public is wearing them for a prolonged period of time and not frequently change them, for example. All of these pose potential risks that i dont think we fully understand, there is some evidence from some studies in america and germany that facemasks might have had an impact in reducing transmission but i could equally find other studies that suggest it doesnt provide that benefit so i think its very mixed evidence, in truth. Whats the message, on a social basis, when you go to the supermarket, i went to the supermarket the other day, lots of people were wearing masks, those working, and i thought, maybe i should, out of courtesy, almost, do not necessarily protect me but protect others and hope that they think the same way. How does that message get through in the scientific advice is so conflicting, the evidence is so conflicting . think youve raised an important point. The evidence is out there, it
shows masks to reduce your chance of transmitting the virus but they certainly wont protect you from becoming infected. People are wearing those masks to protect themselves, unfortunately, its not going to work but there is evidence that it can reduce your risk to others and i think one of the main reasons weve suddenly started to get a little bit more interest in mask this firstly, we are not able to socially distance as much as we could before. We cannot almost keep two metres apart, it was very damaging to the economy. The other reason is there is more evidence that people can be infected. But not show any symptoms and its these asymptomatic people who potentially could be out and about in a community, not knowing they are infected and potentially spreading the virus. Wearing a face mask might also help in those cases. Its interesting we are using the word mask, our guidance is weve used Face Covering up until now. What if,
i dont know, someone is wearing a rollneck, a polo neck and those that over their face, rollneck, a polo neck and those that over theirface, or a rollneck, a polo neck and those that over their face, or a scarf, rollneck, a polo neck and those that overtheirface, ora scarf, raab sat around their face while in the supermarket . Considering all the range of coverings available, is that effective, are the result is the same . Again, youve raised another important issue and thats the confusion around the terminology. A face mask or Face Covering . At the moment, i think the government advisers to wear Face Covering. There have been concerns of people go out and buy facemasks in large numbers, that might threaten the ppe for Health Care Workers and front line workers and so, at the moment, it is a Face Covering and advise covering is material and therefore it has lots and lots of tiny holes and those holes are large enough, for very, very small droplets which could carry the virus to get through that covering but it will capture or trap very large droplets and we think
that its predominantly the large droplets that this sort of virus is spread by. So, in theory, it will reduce the spread of the virus by capturing and trapping that virus but as i say, if you are infected, youre essentially producing a very contaminated piece of cloth that signing in front of your face and if you are then not careful, when you ta ke you are then not careful, when you take that off and remove you could potentially be contaminating your hands so we shouldnt lose sight of the other measures that have been so effective. Its really interesting talking to you in getting your analysis. Thank you. Professor jonathan ball. Professor of virology. Its a subject that has got you really talking this morning. We can now find out a bit more about what compulsory face masks in shops in england will mean in practice. We arejoined by helen dickinson, ceo of the British Retail Consortium, and ken marsh, chairman of the metropolitan police federation. Good morning to both of you. Lovely to have you on the programme. Kent
marsh, starting with you, those of you have been following this will know it is the police s to enforce the wearing of Face Coverings from next friday so what will be the response of police to these measures, do you think . Good morning, as you can imagine, we are talking about private premises what we need is shopkeepers to come on board fully and say, quite clearly, in their shop windows, etc, no mask, no entry, its as simple as that. For us to enforce what you are talking about, i would imagine will be nigh on impossible. Shopkeepers do not have the power to detain someone so do not have the power to detain someone so they would only ring the police, we would be driving round and round london looking for individuals who were in their shop. Its just absurd. It seems you cannot get your head around the practicalities of it so lets take your example and take it out a bit further. I shop because the police, an officer turns up, somebody is not wearing a Face Covering in that shop, what happens next . You are
describing a situation where that person remains there. I would suggest that they are not willing to wear a face mask they wouldnt remain there, they would walk off and as ive said to you, they have no authority to detain them so therefore, it becomes a problem to find the individual, act upon whats said. It will put us in a position andi said. It will put us in a position and i tried to highlight, shopkeepers need to make it their responsibility as well. Im all for Face Coverings, dont get me wrong at all. Shopkeepers, as they did in the beginning of the pandemic, were stopping people going in their stores, they were very good at it, we need clear direction, no facemasks, no entry, this is private property. That would help massively. We arejust property. That would help massively. We are just about to talk to helen from the British Retail Consortium but ken, i wonder, how many fines do you think are going to be issued for people who refuse to wear face masks, say, in the first month . Thats a real difficult one. I could not possibly answer that because i
dont understand how this will roll out. Our part to play in this is, as i highlighted, these are private premises. Its a really difficult one. I would premises. Its a really difficult one. Iwould hope premises. Its a really difficult one. I would hope we would not have toissue one. I would hope we would not have to issue any because what is happening during this pandemic, its a lwa ys happening during this pandemic, its always become the police s blimp to deal with this, the good guys and bad guys and its not right. We need the public to fully understand, why are we waiting ten days for this to happen . Lets do it straightaway, ta ke happen . Lets do it straightaway, take the public with us and get on with it. Helen, its interesting, you have heard what has been said by ken. 0k, lets put these points to you. When we interviewed george used as the environment secretary i put that question to him, why ten days and he said you need preparation to get science in place. Do you need ten days to tell your customers, your clients to be able to tell their customers they need to wear a mask . Yes. I think it is important that we all have time to prepare,
whether thats the retailers needing to look at the science that is being highlighted, to make sure staff have had the right training, whether its us as members of the public getting our stock of masks at the ready or Face Coverings, as you were highlighting in the report there. So it is important that there is that in time to prepare. What training do you need to wear a mask . Training in terms of how to encourage customers to ensure that they are doing so when they are entering the shop. Retailers absolutely have been focused on ensuring our safety, as customers, and there is safety as colleagues, right through the whole crisis, from the early days when essential retailers are open to the lifting of restrictions on wider retail during the course ofjune. And i think it is, there is a need
to recognise the role, the really Important Role of those people who work in stores, day in, day out and are interacting with us all as customers, in encouraging us to comply with these new regulations. It is for the police, for that final bit of enforcement and i think, what you were talking about earlier, with ken, wasa you were talking about earlier, with ken, was a really, really small minority of people, the vast majority of us all, as members of the public, as long as its clear what it is that we are expected to do, why we are expected to do it and that Face Coverings are just one pa rt of that Face Coverings are just one part of all of the measures that we all need to take, hygiene, ensuring washing of the hands, two metres social distancing, where possible, and that masks or Face Coverings are just one other level of mitigation thatis just one other level of mitigation that is there. Then i think that can give us all much more confidence. Helen, i dont want to run out of time but i want to put to you the point ken was making earlier about how helpful it would be from a police point of view for sops to say, no Face Coverings, you dont come in. Is that something you are looking at . For shops. Absolutely, the window displays, signs outside shops have already changed over the past few months, markings on the floor, signage pointing around directions of routes around stores, around the need to maintain social distancing. So, back to the reason why time is needed to prepare, itsjust to the reason why time is needed to prepare, its just making to the reason why time is needed to prepare, itsjust making sure that signage is updated to reflect the change in the requirements. Does that reassure you, ken . It does to a certain degree. What i dont want to see is the massive emphasis again, put on the police. Every piece of literature ive seen since this has
come out, it will be enforced, it will be enforced, the police will deal with it. These are private premises we are talking about. We have to Work Together. Absolutely, as your colleague said just now. There is an incident where its not under control, of course we will turn up and deal with it, thats what the police do but there has to be Group Understanding that we all Work Together so that points of entry, you have a mask on. And the public do get it, we are talking about a very, very, very small minority who wont adhere to it. Ken and helen, really good to speak to you both. Fascinating debate. Lots of years getting involved in this. 0n of years getting involved in this. On bbc of years getting involved in this. 0n bbc radio 5 live this morning theyve been having a debate about some of the reasons people give for not wearing Face Coverings, saying things like my glasses steam up, they are uncomfortable, it infringes my personal freedom. They are uncomfortable, it infringes my personalfreedom. Ive they are uncomfortable, it infringes my personal freedom. Ive got a good hint for gazza steaming up, it wasnt mine, someone put it on twitter, forgive me, i cant remember who it was, washing up
liquid, i wear glasses. Remember who it was, washing up liquid, iwear glasses. 0n remember who it was, washing up liquid, i wear glasses. 0n the lenses. Stops it smearing. Thats the same thing. If you have a mirror thatis the same thing. If you have a mirror that is steamed up in the bathroom, cover it with hansel, rub it in, maybe thats the same principle . More hassle tips tomorrow cover it with hand soap. Psychedelic drugs like magic mushrooms and lsd are most commonly associated with the party scene, but Scientists Say they could potentially be used to treat depression and post Traumatic Stress disorder. Because they are class a drugs, research is difficult. Today, a group of experts will begin campaigning for a change in the law, to make it easier for scientific study. Graham satchell has been to meet a military veteran to hear about his experiences. His report contains detailed accounts of war. I was watching the patrol move off and they came under contact. My friend andy got shot through the back. Trying to get andy out of that firefight, martin was giving covering fire. I was watching him through some binoculars. Unfortunately, i was watching right at the point where i saw him take a bullet through his face and he was dead instantly. Get back gunfire. Guy murray wasjust 19 when he served in afghanistan. He had one of the most dangerous jobs on patrol, searching for explosive devices. Guys experiences left him traumatised. When he came home he tried to take his own life. At that point, i had to call out the samaritans and i was trying to get help with other charities but because of my alcohol use, they were like, we are not going to touch it until you sort that out and i was like, what . I need your help as his depression got worse, guy started searching for alternatives. He read about the use of Psychedelic Drugs in the treatment of Traumatic Stress. Itjust changed everything. It allowed me to see my trauma and how i was carrying it around and how i didnt have to carry it around. There are other options available than sitting and talking to a therapist for hours. Which soldiers arent very good at doing because we go back to that thing. Hey, man, you werent there, man, you dont know, man. And itsjust, you know, we come up against that straightaway with a therapist who has not been to war. We are, like, what do you know . Heres a slide showing how the how the psilocybin switches off the parts of the brain which drive problems like depression. Scientists researching Psychedelic Drugs say they do have potential as therapies. Psilocybin turns off the parts of the brain that drives repetitive thinking. And we believe thats how it can help people break out of the shackles of either depression, where people think repetitively about things theyve done wrong, or ptsd, where people continually remember things they dont want to remember, the very painful,
traumatic experiences. That possession of a Psychedelic Drug is illegal and taking them potentially dangerous. It can lead to a seven yearjazz sentence. It can lead to problems like paranoia. Experts say they should never be taken alone. But in the same way some cannabis products have been legalised for medicinal purposes, campaigners now want the government to change the law to make it easier to research the therapeutic use of Psychedelic Drugs. What we are saying is you should do the same for psilocybin and mdma, move them out of schedule 0ne into schedule two and that way, doctors can prescribe them and research them much, much more easily. But what i need to say to you is, dont do it alone at present. These drugs are illegal and i believe, to get the best benefits, you need to have trained therapists present when you use them. The home office told us. Guy has nowjoined forces with other veterans, academics and researchers to form a medical Psychedelics Working Group which launches today. The hope, to understand more about Psychedelic Drugs and their potential as a treatment for ptsd. Graham satchell, bbc news. So important that its addressed, and you can understand why you would try things, and explore, in a safe environment. Of course, to try and make a difference. Here is one for you. Get up into the attic, have a closer look at your mantelpiece and check out whats lurking at the back of the wardrobe because antiques roadshow is back. It sounds as if you are looking for
a monster or the land of narnia for the first time in more than four decades, it will be filmed on a closed set, and a small group of viewers will be able to attend by invitation only. Well speak to presenter fiona bruce in a moment, but first lets find out more. Normally at this time of year, were filming roadshows up and down the country with thousands of people. Of course, in these unprecedented circumstances, we cant do that. But the show must go on and we will film the antiques roadshow but in a slightly different way. So what wed like you to do, if youve got an object that you would like to bring along, get in touch with us and we will be inviting some of you to bring along your items to show to our experts. Now heres where were going to be heading. And fiona joins us now. Lovely to see you different world, isnt it my goodness, it certainly is. At the road show, we are lucky enough to have about 5000 people turn up for the day, great day out, we look at everything that they brought, there is always a tea tent, people with picnics, its a fantastic scene. Thats going to change. Im hoping the programme will feel similar to people watching at home but it will be very different when people come along. As you saw in that clip, instead of opening the doors and anyone who wants to come can turn up, we will invite people to come, people contact us on the antiques road show website, tell us what they have, there is a form they can fill in and
we will look at it, inviting people to film to come. We will film strictly adhering to government guidelines, ensuring everyone is safe but making sure people have a good time, we see fantastic objects and hopefully we make fantastic programmes. It will feel different, pa rt programmes. It will feel different, part of the magic of the programme, somebody finding a figurine in the loft which they are told is worth thousands of pounds and the crowd behind, you hear the gasps as they learn how much its worth. Thats going to be very different in the new system, isnt it . Well, it will and it wont because some people have been contacting us already. Its clear people are quite rightly thinking, since i can come on the programme i will contact the programme i will contact the programme and tell them what ive got and see if anything is worth anything or is of any interest. We are still getting a real mixture which is great. The real show is partly about those humdinger items, the chinese fans that turns out to be worth 40 grand or whatever. Plus
the little pill box that someone picked up in a junk shop and turns out to be lalique or Something Like that. I think we will still get that combination. We don programmes like this before, weve done for example, a programme around the Holocaust Memorial day. We did one about the battle of britain, thats coming out in september. For those we did the same thing, i asked people to contact us at the website, and through the bbc, they submit their items, we choose them and filmed them. We can still make remarkable programmes. It will be different in that there wont be thousands of people there but i think we will still get the real range of items, as long as people contact us, thats the main thing. Get in touch with us on the programme website, tell us what you have. The programme is almost a fabric of peoples lives, eve ryo ne almost a fabric of peoples lives, everyone knows the show, youve been doing it for 12 years, i think . This
is my 13th year now you get asked this all the time but i dont know the answer so i will ask, favourite item thats been unearthed, doesnt necessarily have to have been worth loads, its just got the best story, per year. I put so many favourite items. Its really difficult to pick one. One of the most bizarre ones, i suppose, was a lady, we were at Osborne House on the isle of wight, where Queen Victoria used to live with her beloved prince albert. This lady brought along, i dont know why this has come to mind, but i will tell you. Im starting to regret starting this. Anyway, she brought along this toilet seat, Queen Victoria, having had huge amounts of children, needed to go to the loo quite often, she had little toilets placed around the grounds so she brought this wooden seat, she said, i bought this when little bits of
land were pa rcelled i bought this when little bits of land were parcelled off and sold and i lived in one of the bits of the former ground and we kept this toilet seat because it was graced by the royal bottom. I took this from her, we were talking about it, i was looking at it and i asked the question, i should have asked in the first place, which is, where do you keep this royal souvenir . She said, we still use it, ijust took it off the loo this morning fiona people are eating but it made me laugh, laugh and grimace at the same time. Fiona bruce, people eating their brea kfast fiona bruce, people eating their breakfast while they watch this look at what you brought this programme down to fiona bruce comes in and brings down the town, thats what happens. Im sorry i ask this carefully, given the story you have just told us. Do you feel you have got a better nose for antiques these days . Funny you should ask that. Its interesting. If i go into an antiques shop, there is a different kind of vibe goes on. With the person who is running the shop. There are certain things i collect and things that i look out for. Things i know a bit about and things i know very little about. Certainly i know very little about. Certainly i know a lot more than when i started. The owner, tell us, how has lockdown treated you, ive been so grateful to be back at work, dan, i know you have. Its been such a different experience. Must be a joy to do the road show in at least some form . It really is, i have missed it. Its such fun to do. I know all life is there, from the most fabulous to the most poignant, the most amusing, the most ridiculous. I have really missed that. I have worked throughout, on question time, the news, question time has been totally different, we could not have
a live audience, we had none to begin with and then we ended up with a zoom begin with and then we ended up with a zoom version of the audience and who knows what it will be like when we come back in september . I was hugely glad to come back to work, actually. I think, hugely glad to come back to work, actually. Ithink, there hugely glad to come back to work, actually. I think, there were only a few days i wasnt working and then it was, i dont know about you in sa lfo rd , it was, i dont know about you in salford, in broadcasting house in london, very weird to begin with. Now, we have all the stripes on the floor. Reminding us to wash our hands. Getting your head around all of that. I am kind of use to it now and im glad i have kept working, it has kept me sane. Fiona, lovely to have you in the programme even though you talked toilet good luck with the programme. Thank you so much for coming on. You can go to the antiques road show website. Get in touch with fiona and the team. Thats all from us for today. Breakfast will be back
tomorrow morning from six. Enjoy the rest of your day, goodbye. This is bbc news with the latest headlines. Face coverings will be compulsory in shops in england from the end of next week anyone refusing to wear one can be fined £100. I think to a point we should be forced, because we all want to get back to normal. Ijust feel like im doing the right thing and im protecting myself. I would say no. As long as youre sanitising and youre conscious
