I personally cry when i get home quite a lot, actually, at the moment. Sleep were suffering the sleep problems, i think, a lot of nurses and doctors at the moment as well. The big supermarkets toughen their stance on shoppers Wearing Masks. What about the workers who have to enforce the rules . Can confrontations like this be avoided . Ill be looking at the details. Manchester united are top of the premier league. Paul pogbas volley helps them beat burnley, but calls to respect social distancing rules during celebrations are ignored. Good morning. It isa it is a carl grey day out there with rain for many of us. Some sleet and snow over the hills. I have all your weather details throughout the programme. All that to come. Its wednesday, the 13th of january. Our top story. Caterers have been told to urgently improve the quality of food parcels being sent out to some of englands poorest children. Its after images of the packages were shared by parents online. The childrens minister called the provisions unacceptable and said they do not reflect the High Standard expected of Free School Meals. Keith doyle reports. As i unpacked that food parcel in my living room and looked at the contents, it felt very sad and very depressing. And one of my children came in and saw me laying this out on the floor and asked why, and i said i was going to picture it because i didnt think it looked like a lot. And i could see the childs realisation that, this is what ive been given to eat for a week, and just the sense of sadness. Where has the rest of the food gone . You know, this is meant to be a weeks food. Why is it so mean . This is the reaction to the Free School Meals food parcel this mother received to feed her children. Sarah, who does not want to be identified, to protect her two children, is disabled and on Free School Meals. Reaction to sarahs tweet was swift on social media, with the footballer Marcus Rashford, who has campaigned for Free School Meals, reposting what other families said they had received. Government guidelines say school meals should contain items which parents can use to prepare healthy lunches across the week. They were replaced with vouchers during previous lockdowns in england, but because suppliers were contracted to provide meals before the Current National lockdown was announced, theyve been sending food parcels instead. After meeting the company at the centre of this row, the minister for children, vicky ford, said. Chartwells, the company which supplied this parcel, is not the only uk supplier. It said it would refund the cost where any parcels did not meet their usual High Standard, and it would be. For sarah, thats a move in the right direction. Its a very positive step that they are going to look at where gaps have occurred, why they have occurred, and seek to resolve them. You know, thats great to see that progress. The government says vouchers worth £15 per week per child will be available from next week, and it will give further details later today. Keith doyle, bbc news. First minister Nicola Sturgeon is to announce whether any further coronavirus restrictions will be imposed in scotland, after the death toll passed 5,000. The scottish cabinet has been discussing if changes should be made to takeaway and click and collect services, as Connor Gillies reports. Travel news now for those of you who have to be out. And queuing traffic on the northbound m74. The streets and roads are not as silent as last spring not as quiet as the politicians may like. With hospitals under sustained, significant pressure, more restrictions are being mooted. This is whats causing concern queues and gathering. 0ne coffee shop owner closed his place down over covid fears. As a business owner, weve found it extremely difficult to work, you know, and Police Things like queues and social distancing effectively without actually taking a very. A very strong sort of approach. Our staff were often out in the street trying to sort out people and ask them not to crowd on the pavement, and so on. Click and collect may be tightened, and the advice on takeaways squeezed. Were asking people to stay at home, except for essential purposes. But people can still go fortakeaway, still go into places for takeaway. Now, it may not be about saying you cant have takeaway at all, but do we need to tighten up how that operates just to limit the potential for people coming together inside . A cough is the most obvious spread of covid. 0ne expert reckons three metre social distancing would help, but the data continues to show a positive case is more likely to have gone to a supermarket than anywhere else. That weighs heavy here in greenock where two workers died after contracting the virus. I just stay away from everybody. I stay by myself. I dont talk to anybody. Ijust keep away from people. Im all right. I mean, i take all my precautions you know, i hand sanitise, my mask on, and i think thats all anybody can do. And here in lanarkshire, another sign of how serious it all is all non urgent surgical procedures being postponed amid fears covid hospital numbers could double. Lockdown lifting at the end of january now highly unlikely as this crisis continues. Connor gillies, bbc news. Nearly half of intensive care staff in england could be suffering from post Traumatic Stress disorder, severe anxiety or problem drinking, according to new research. Kings College London spoke to more than 700 icu staff during the first wave of the pandemic last summer. The study found Poor Mental Health was common in intensive care clinicians particularly amongst nurses. A number of senior figures within president Trumps Republican Party are now prepared to support efforts to remove him from office. Democrats, who accuse mr trump of inciting last weeks violent attack on washingtons capitol, are likely to push for a vote later today in the house of representatives. From washington, our correspondent Barbara Plett usher reports. Just one week after the deadly attack on the capitol building, the house is racing to impeach donald trump for inciting it. The president s actions demonstrate his absolute inability to discharge the most basic and fundamental powers and duties of his office. Therefore the president must be removed from office immediately. First, though, democrats pushed the Vice President , mike pence, to take action to invoke the constitution and declare mr trump unfit to govern. He wont do that he warned this move would further inflame the nation. But some republicans have begun to abandon the president including the third Ranking Member in the house, liz cheney. They say they will vote to impeach. The dam is beginning to break. Mr trump hasnt made it any easierfor his party. Venturing out of the white house for the First Time Since the riot, he showed no remorse, accepted no responsibility. The impeachment hoax is a continuation of the greatest and most vicious witch hunt in the history of our country, and is causing tremendous anger and division and pain, far greater than most people will ever understand, which is very dangerous for the usa, especially at this very tender time. In washington, its lawmakers who are getting angrier, as growing evidence shows how brutal the mob was. In a sweeping investigation, dozens have been charged. Hundreds might be. And Security Officials are bracing for more violence ahead ofjoe biden� s inauguration. They warn of plans for armed protests even a plot to try and overthrow the government. The country is reaping the whirlwind of Donald Trumps presidency. And today marks a pivotal step in its dramatic end. Mr trump is facing the unprecedented stigma of a second impeachment, and his fractured party is facing a traumatic moment of reckoning. Barbara plett usher, bbc news, washington.

The company said it was doing so after a change in tone from the government. The Daily Telegraph claims that doctors delivering the Covid Vaccine in some areas have been ordered to pause jabs, to allow other parts of the country to catch up something the nhs has denied. The guardian reports that thousands of hospital patients are going to be discharged early and sent to hotels in order to free up beds. It says one hotel chain has already started taking some coronavirus patients from a south london hospital. And the Irish Examiner has a very powerfulfront page. It lists the names of hundreds of children who died at the bessborough mother and baby home in cork. Yesterday, the irish Prime Minister said the treatment of unmarried mothers and their children across ireland during the 19th and 20th centuries, was a dark and shameful chapter in the countrys history.

This time yesterday, we talked about morrisons and sainsbury� s confirming they were going to strengthen the guidance on Wearing Masks in store. The question is what impact will always on us, and who is going to enforce that. Nina is looking at this and a number of issues. Lots of pressure on shop workers. Yesterday issues. Lots of pressure on shop workers. Yesterday we issues. Lots of pressure on shop workers. Yesterday we had issues. Lots of pressure on shop workers. Yesterday we had an i workers. Yesterday we had an extraordinary response. Its obviously an issue that means a lot to workers and shoppers alike. Lots of the big retailers put out statements throughout the day reminding customers of the rules and saying they would be getting tougher on this. Tesco, asda, waitrose and marks and spencer have all followed morrisons and said they will deny entry to shoppers who refuse to wear facemasks without a medical exemption. They said the vast majority of customers are generally following the rules but clearly not everybody. Iceland told us that since last march they have recorded 650 instances of verbal abuse and 30 physical assaults on staff. All as a result of customers resistance to the coronavirus regulations including masks and social distancing. And theyre not alone co op food sent us the following shocking footage from an incident last year. Get off me. Get out. Why are you touching me for . Why are you touching me . Get out now why are you touching me for . Get out right now come, come, come, come, come. This customer got really aggressive after asking staff to remove their masks, even grabbing this workers. Really upsetting for staff. He was charged and then pleaded guilty to common assault in november. It shows the pressure they are under. This is happening for the big names in retail. What about the Smaller Convenience Stores which weve been using a lot more of over lockdown . They dont always have the money for security staff, and sometimes workers are there alone. We spoke with paul, who runs a small store in coventry. As an independent retailer, i cannot afford. I havent got the funds like the big supermarkets to employ a Security Guard on the front door to do this. I mean, to get a Security Guard, what are you talking . £300, £400, £500 a week . We havent got the funds to do that. You times that by two, its £1,000. And if you look at the big estate of independent retailers up and down the country, which havent got the funds to do that, and some retailers are running on two people and it could be two family members in their store. So where are we going to find the funds to do what supermarkets are doing . So its. Theres two parts to this theres the bit where we all need to play a part, but the second is the vulnerability, the verbal abuse that you get from a small minority that are not willing to do, you know, what they should be doing. Its notjust food shops where its a legal requirement. And now the high street bank hsbc has warned that those who dont comply with rules could see their accounts closed. Were going to hearfrom one supermarket worker later who told us its getting harder, not easier. Isaid i said earlier how much of a response this has provoked from the audience already. We have heard from one work in a petrol station who says they were verbally attacked just last night. Front page of the times this morning is saying john lewis is one of those to stop click and collect because the government messaging has become tougher but usdaw, the shop workers union, says it is not tough enough. Compared to last year, people are not following the one way system, shopping with the one way system, shopping with the widerfamily and the one way system, shopping with the wider family and people have to comply with rules the way they did last year if this is going to work. Thank you, nina. More people are now being treated in hospital with covid than at any other point during the crisis and the pressure of the pandemic continues to take its toll on our Health Workers. Now research from kings College London has found that almost half of intensive care staff are suffering from severe anxiety, ptsd, or problem drinking. Breakfast� s Graham Satchell reports. The thin line between life and death is played out here in intensive care. But never has the pressure on staff been so great. Intensive care units are full. The staff are incredibly stretched at the moment. And, really, i guess many people are breaking themselves to try and make this work rate. Staff breaking themselves. This pandemic has been going on for almost a year, and the consequences for nhs staff are now becoming clear. A new report shows high levels of stress, depression, anxiety. Were all supporting each other, luckily. And were trying to save lives. Erm. Were alljust doing what we can to save peoples loved ones. The relentless pressure laid bare in this video by nurse Shirley Watts in the first wave last april. And were sinking a little bit, but were still turning up and were trying to do our best. Todays study by kings College London shows Poor Mental Health is now common amongst intensive care staff. It says 40 have symptoms of post Traumatic Stress. 11 have severe anxiety. And 13 have frequent thoughts of being better off dead or hurting themselves. Doctors like Zudin Puthucheary are used to saving peoples lives not having them die in huge numbers. Part of being in intensive care is that you give up a lot of yourself to try and do your best for your patients. And sometimes, when it doesnt work out, it can be very painful. This is St Georges Hospital in london, the sheer number of patients here causing significant stress. Im looking after many more sick patients than i normally look after. Itsjust overwhelming, the whole situation. I personally cry when i get home quite a lot, actually, at the moment. Sleep were suffering with sleep problems, i think, a lot of nurses and doctors at the moment, as well. We just do have to keep going because we have to be here for patients. But i do worry, you know, about the scars that will leave some of our stuff with. Some of our staff with. An nhs spokesperson told us theyve invested £15 million in Mental Health support. But the intensive care society, which represents staff, says not enough is being done. Its now appealing to the public for support to help maintain the well being of front line medical workers. We need to raise funds for these resources, because there is no plan in how well rehabilitate the staff in the pandemic. This pandemic will have many unfortunate lasting legacies. One is the damage it is doing to nhs staff. Graham satchell, bbc news. And it really gives you a sense of what is going on. Get in touch with us about that. A lot going on in the programme today.

That is a concern for some. We will get through some of those issues. We will speak to the man in charge of the whole of the roll out, brigadier phil prosser.

Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. The mayor and London Councils have written an open letter to the Prime Minister, setting out a list of tighter restrictions they want to see introduced across the capital. Theyre asking for mandatory mask wearing in busy places outdoors, for places of worship to be closed, and an urgent review of what counts as essential retail. A Government Spokesperson told us they are keeping the rules under constant review. The rising infection rates mean people who are clinically vulnerable have been advised to shield again. They include the family of six year old jackson, who has a rare terminal illness. He and his parents and three year old sister spent most of last year at their home in east tilbury in essex to keep him safe. We just have to make a really tough decision every time we go out. Its really tough, but we just have to crack on because its life and you have to crack on. You have to. Like, seren needs to have a decent upbringing, a normal upbringing, not being locked away and saying that her best friends the trampoline, you know . Its not right to hear things like that. Playgrounds across london are still open during lockdown for children to exercise. 0ne council is introducing trained wardens to try to improve safety. Waltham Forest Council has 13 play safe champions, who will patrol some of the boroughs council run playgrounds, cleaning equipment and advising parents on social distancing. With londons galleries shut, and non essential shops closed, eight artists are using the shop fronts to display their work. Theyre hoping the installations in High Street Kensington will brighten up the area for local people during the winter months. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. First the tube. Just the waterloo city line closure you can see there. And also the 0vergrounds still got a reduced service between richmond and stratford. This is how the a2 looks. Weve still got roadworks at the danson interchange, so that will slow things down this morning. Lambeth bridge is closed eastbound for works. And in neasden, neasden lane north is still closed between the a406 and aboyne road. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. There is some rain in the forecast today, and it is a chilly start to the morning, with a touch of frost out there, a few patches of mist around and plenty of cloud as well. Now the cloud is thickening from the west and eventually we will see these outbreaks of rain move away eastwards. The rain will be with us for much of the rest of the day. Most of it will tend to be quite light and patchy. It brings with it some milder air.

This is very much been adopted covering. This is very much been adopted across the board. But i think adopted across the board. But i think sadly there are some people who have think sadly there are some people who have some reluctance to do that. We are who have some reluctance to do that. We are not who have some reluctance to do that. We are not talking about people who have medical conditions which stop them have medical conditions which stop them from have medical conditions which stop them from wearing Face Coverings. I think them from wearing Face Coverings. I think everyone is sympathetic to that think everyone is sympathetic to that but think everyone is sympathetic to that but i think everyone is sympathetic to that.

I think its quite supermarket staff. I think its quite right to be checking them. I dont quite right to be checking them. Dont know quite right to be checking them. I dont know if you have seen it from your conversations with patients as well, there does seem to be an element of fatigue from some people.

The premier league said yesterday, we are in the spotlight. Elite sport is allowed to continue. The government have said they will make changes if they have to. The premier league has said two players, Everybody Needs to be careful, Everybody Needs to be careful, everybody is watching what we are doing. There were celebrations yesterday. Understandably for Manchester United. The first time in seven seasons they find themselves top of the premier league at this stage. Good morning. Manchester united sit top of the premier league this morning, after beating burnley. It was one of three matches last night, and ahead of the games players were reminded of the leagues coronavirus protocols, to avoid handshakes, high fives and hugs. But it might take a bit longer for the message to get through. Katie gornall reports. In the face of mounting scrutiny, football have been put on warning. Ahead of every premier league match last night, referees and League Officials urged players to stick to the Covid Protocols. That should have meant no hugs and no handshakes. Few heeded the message. Dont shake hands, lads Manchester United were here in burnley with the summit in sight. Thats where Harry Maguire was headed, only for var to cry foul. In the second half, paul pogba left no room for discussion. United only needed a point to top the table, but took all three, and now go into sundays clash against liverpool, with the champions trailing in their wake. Its good times. Youve got to enjoy it. And its a test, of course, going there, as you said. Theyre the champions by right, because theyve been fantastic the last couple of years. And thats a great test for us now. There was also another win on the road for everton, as Michael Keane scored the decisive goal in their lively 2 1win over wolves. And Sheffield United finally have something to celebrate. Their start to this campaign has been the worst in premier league history. But thanks to a newcastle handball, and a billy sharpe penalty, they now have their first win of the season at the 18th time of asking. Their joy was understandable, but again, there was little in the way of social distancing. For many, football is a welcome distraction at the moment. But for how much longer . Katie gornall, bbc news. Stand by for a cracking goal from the scottish premiership. This is Dundee UnitedsLawrence Shankland having a go from a very, very long way out 53 yards, were told. It was a goal that rescued his side a point against stjohnstone. Not sure the goalie will want to watch that one back again. Absolutely brilliant stuff. Before we completely put last weekends fa cup action to bed, we wanted to show you a lovely video thats emerged in the last day or so. This is the family of 18 year old declan thompson, who are watching at home as he came off the substitutes bench to make his professional debut for Sheffield Wednesday. An emotional moment, because when declan was five, he was diagnosed with a rare childhood condition which affects his hips, and he spent 18 months in a wheelchair. His parents were told that he might not walk again, never mind play football. No wonder his dad lee had a bit of a cry. He called me and just told me how proud he was and stuff. And then, obviously my mum and grandad, they all called me and pretty much said the exact same, really. My grandads took me to every single game, so like, repaying him by going round to his house i went round to his house on sunday, and i took my shirt round and i gave him my shirt. Hes not really expressed emotions in front of me, but i could tell that id made him proud and that were, like, one of the best parts for me. Isnt that lovely .

Things will turn milderfor a time as we head through the day and tomorrow, then colder again towards the end of the week. It is a little bit up and down in terms of the weather in the next few days. Today weather in the next few days. Today we have to stay at home as much as possible. Not a bad day. It is going to be cloudy, it is going to be great, outbreaks of rain for many.

It is a battle of the weather fronts. Cold air in the east. A chilly start. Milder air working in from the west. Where those two air masses meet we have a weather front which has already been producing rain. It has been pouring in from the west. Sleet and snow developing across the Higher Ground of Northern England, through the pennines, towards south west scotland. They could be icy stretches. Rain first thing falling in sub zero services. Some ice, certainly some frost, rain pushing its way gradually eastwards. Quite a slow moving feature. Northern and eastern scotland staying dry for a good part of today. They will be some drier weather moving on from the south later. But for many, we will keep the patchy rain throughout the day. A contrasting temperature. Ten or 11 in the milder air in the west. Two or three towards newcastle and edinburgh. This evening and tonight we keep a lot of cloud. Further outbreaks of patchy rain. More snow across the hills of northern anger than scotland. Thats snow could come down to lower levels across the central belt, a couple of centimetres possible. Most places are staying above freezing. Not quite as cold. We have the cloud and milder air moving quite as cold. We have the cloud and milderair moving in quite as cold. We have the cloud and milder air moving in from the south west. Into thursday, there is a slow moving weather front still with us. Quite a stubborn feature. It is gradually going to start to ease away later tomorrow. But for the bulk of the day a lot of cloud similar to today, outbreaks of rain, some of it quite heavy. More snow to come across the Higher Ground of northern ended and scotland. You can see it starting to fizzle out later. A slowly improving story later. A contrasting temperature. Three to fourin contrasting temperature. Three to four in the north east, ten to 11 in the south west. Through tomorrow night, thursday night, eventually we are going to start to lose the cloud, the rain and the hills now. Eventually things turning a little bit drier for a eventually things turning a little bit drierfor a time eventually things turning a little bit drier for a time with a ridge of high pressure. That is holding on into friday. But then into the weekend you can see the next area of low pressure moving its way in from the atlantic. It is up and down as we head through the day on thursday. More rain. Friday looks quieter, colder. But into the weekend we welcome low pressure. Unsettled weather into the weekend. Particularly wet and blustery on saturday. Drierfor most. Quite windy during sunday. Thank you. The small minority of lockdown Rule Breakers are putting the health of the nation at risk thats what home secretary priti patel told the downing street briefing yesterday. But how well are people adhering to the strict measures . Researchers at university College London have been looking at who is following the rules and which ones are more likely to be broken. So far theyve found that, of those surveyed, around one in five people aged over 60 requested a test if they had symptoms, while more than 40 of younger adults with symptoms said they got tested. 13 said they did not isolate at all when they had symptoms. Nearly two thirds said they completed the full ten days. And one in 20 admitted to flouting restrictions on meeting outdoors. However, 75 said they completely followed the rules allowing them to meet up with just one other person outside. It is really interesting to hear those figures. Were joined now by the lead author of the study, daisy fancourt, an associate professor of epidemiology at ucl. Good morning. Thank you so much for joining us.

No one in history has won both an olympic gold medal and a best actress oscar, but 13 year old lilly aspell hopes to be the person to change all that. Shes already secured podium finishes at a number of horseriding shows, and can now be seen playing the young wonder woman in the latest instalment of the hollywood blockbuster. Our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson caught up with her. Wonder woman is 13 years old, was born in scotland and lives in north yorkshire. Ive seen this contest. The most seasoned warriors, diana. I can do it. Wonder woman 1984 starts with a ten minute action sequence featuring wonder woman as a young girl, played by lilly aspell. The way she landed the role is like something from a film. Her big break came in a toy shop during a day out in london with her mum. I was literallyjust, i think, dancing around like in a hat and sunglasses or something. And this guyjust walked up to me and he said, you really look like the person im casting for. And, you know, id love if you could come in, come and audition. And my mum was like, shes never acted before. One audition later and the part was hers. The time will come, diana. Lilly briefly appeared in flashbacks in the first wonder woman film, but this time has a whole sequence, taking part in the amazonian games. Training took six months and then, erm, we were like, when is this going to start filming . During all that training, what kind of things were you learning . Bow and arrow, and, you know, horse training as well. Kind ofjust getting my cos i was already quite fit and active, but kind ofjust muscle as well, trying to build muscle to create the amazon she is. Lilly did all her own stunts and particularly enjoyed those done on horseback. Shes an equestrian, both her mum and dad were jockeys and her uncle, leighton aspell, won back to back grand nationals. My mum went to the racetrack and won two weeks after having me. I got my first pony when i was two, i think. Initially, the kind of acting was to fund the showjumping because its a very expensive sport. Id really like to make this a career, because id love to be, you know, a professional actress, really, and id love to, you know, win oscars and win baftas and go to the olympics. So, yeah, i would love to do them both. That is quite an ambition, to win an oscar and perhaps an olympic gold medal. How possible would that be . Yes. Well, hopefully anything is possible. So, just hard work and dreams, i guess. But for those who grew up in the 70s, wonder woman will always be lynda carter. Now shes played by gal gadot. Its fair to say lilly is a fan. She is literally the best human on earth. And, you know, shes so kind and just would do anything for anybody. We used to go to the beach all the time, because obviously were in the same hotel. And as well as hanging out with a listers playing the young wonder woman comes with other perks. You have your own action figure . Yes, i do. Yes im very proud of that, really. And you come with a free horse . Yes, i know, right . yeah. Im the only person in wonder woman that comes with a horse. Have they given you one . Do you have one in your bedroom . Yes, i do, i have it right next to it oh, go on, get it up so. Yeah that is pretty cool. It only arrived a few days ago. So, yeah, were. Very lucky, to be honest. I like the fact youve kept it in the box. You obviously know its worth more if you never open it. Thats what happened with the old star wars figures. I think we might keep it in the box. If lilly ever does win at the oscars on the olympics, it mightjust be worth a bob or two. Colin paterson, bbc news. I love that. Have you got one . Yes, i love that. Have you got one . Yes, ijust i love that. Have you got one . Yes, i just happen to i love that. Have you got one . Yes, ijust happen to have one if i love that. Have you got one . Yes, ijust happen to have one ijust happen to have one if you had an action ijust happen to have one if you had an action figure ijust happen to have one if you had an action figure you ijust happen to have one if you had an action figure you would l ijust happen to have one if you had an action figure you would keep it near at all times have you seen the action figure of louise . what special powers would you have . Foresight, maybe. And you can see lilly in wonder woman 1984 on home streaming from today. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Loads coming up on breakfast. Matt hancock here at half past seven. Good morning, im sonja jessup. The mayor and London Councils have written an open letter to the Prime Minister, setting out a list of tighter restrictions they want to see introduced across the capital. Theyre asking for mandatory mask wearing in busy areas outdoors, for places of worship to be closed, and for what counts as essential retail to be looked at again. A Government Spokesperson told us they are keeping the rules under constant review. The rising infection rates mean people who are clinically vulnerable have been advised to shield again. They include the family of six year old jackson, who has a rare terminal illness. He and his parents and three year old sister spent most of last year at their home in east tilbury in essex to keep him safe, and told us how its been. We just have to make a really tough decision every time we go out. Its really tough, but we just have to crack on because its life and you have to crack on. You have to. Like, seren needs to have a decent upbringing, a normal upbringing, not being locked away and saying that her best friends the trampoline, you know . Its not right to hear things like that. Playgrounds across london are still open during lockdown for children to exercise. One council is introducing wardens to try to improve safety. Waltham Forest Council has 13 play safe champions, who will patrol some of the boroughs council run playgrounds, cleaning equipment and advising parents on social distancing. With londons galleries shut and non essential shops closed, eight artists are using the shop fronts to display their work. Theyre hoping the installations in High Street Kensington will brighten up the area for local people during the winter months. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Tfl rail has minor delays between Liverpool Street and shenfield. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Theres some rain in the forecast for us today, and its a chilly start to the morning with a touch of frost out there, a few patches of mist around, and plenty of cloud, as well. Now the cloud is thickening from the west and eventually well see these outbreaks of rain move their way eastwards. The rain will be with us for much of the rest of the day most of it will tend to be quite light and patchy. It brings with it some milder air. So milder out towards western spots today, but still rather chilly, with temperatures in mid single figures towards eastern home counties. Now as we head through this evening and overnight, then the rainll fade away for a bit, but then more showery outbreaks of rain some of this could be quite heavy as we head into thursday morning and, again, its a rather cold start to the day. So a wet morning on thursday, but a drier afternoon. Feeling rather chilly again on thursday and, by the time we get to friday, its dry again. There could be some spells of brightness, and the winds will fall a touch lighter but its still cold. Wet and windy again on saturday. Ill be back in half an hour. Theres plenty more on our website and on our instagram and facebook. Now its back to dan and louise bye for now. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and Louise Minchin. Our headlines today. Ministers admit free food parcels for children must urgently improve as the mother who sparked the row tells this programme why she shared this photo. As i unpacked that food parcel in my living room, and looked at the contents, it felt very sad. Changes to covid restrictions in scotland tighter rules on takeaways and shopping are expected. American lawmakers move closer to impeaching donald trump over last weeks violence some members of his own party say theyll support the move. Olympic champion and new dad adam peatyjoins us with some tips on coping with lockdown life and his hopes for this summers games in tokyo. Good morning. A cold start to the day in the east but milder air and clouds moving in from the west. That will bring a lot of rain for many today and some snow over the Higher Ground in the night. More details in about ten minutes. Its wednesday, the 13th of january. Caterers have been told to urgently improve the quality of food parcels being sent out to some of englands poorest children. Its after images of one package was shared thousands of times online. The government says more details on ensuring the quality of the packages will be released later. The woman who took the photo has been speaking exclusively to breakfast. As keith doyle reports, she describes the moment her children saw the contents of the parcel. As i unpacked that food parcel in my living room and looked at the contents, it felt very sad and very depressing. And one of my children came in and saw me laying this out on the floor and asked why, and i said i was going to picture it because i didnt think it looked like a lot. And i could see the childs realisation that, this is what ive been given to eat for a week, and just the sense of sadness. Where has the rest of the food gone . You know, this is meant to be a weeks food. Why is it so mean . This is the reaction to the Free School Meals food parcel this mum received to feed her children. Sarah, who does not want to be identified, to protect her two children, is disabled and relies on Free School Meals. Reaction to sarahs tweet was swift on social media, with the footballer Marcus Rashford, who has campaigned for Free School Meals, reposting what other families said they had received. Government guidelines say school meals should contain items which parents can use to prepare healthy lunches across the week. They were replaced with vouchers during previous lockdowns in england, but because suppliers were contracted to provide meals before the Current National lockdown was announced, theyve been sending food parcels instead. After meeting the company at the centre of this row, the minister for children, vicky ford, said. Chartwells, the company which supplied this parcel, is not the only uk supplier. It said it would refund the cost where any parcels did not meet their usual High Standard, and it would be. For sarah, thats a move in the right direction. Its a very positive step that they are going to look at where gaps have occurred, why they have occurred, and seek to resolve them. You know, thats great to see that progress. The government says vouchers worth £15 per week per child will be available from next week, and it will give further details later today. Keith doyle, bbc news. Our chief Political Correspondent adam fleming is in westminster for us this morning. There has been a Swift Response on this. Good morning. This. Good morning. Yeah, and apparently this. Good morning. Yeah, and apparently when this. Good morning. Yeah, and apparently when prime this. Good morning. Yeah, and| apparently when Prime Minister this. Good morning. Yeah, and apparently when Prime MinisterBoris Johnson saw that photo we have been seeing he said, that is appalling. The government is very sensitive to this issue because they have had issues around it before and, as we have seen, the public are incredibly sensitive to it because it is very, very emotive. But it is worth just taking a minutejust very emotive. But it is worth just taking a minute just to unpack what is going on here. The reason these food parcels exist is so that children who are eligible for Free School Meals still get bells. Some kind of food or some kind of meal from the state even when they are at home doing remote learning. The reason is that a food parcel, or a hamper as they call it, rather than a voucher is so that that food can match the same nutritional standards set out in the law for school meals at school. But then you talk to head teachers who have to deliver this, and they have to deliver it on are not a lot of money. The government increased the amount per pupil per week by a few pounds last week, but one head teacher i spoke to last night said that basically left her with £8 50 night said that basically left her with e8 50 per pupil each week so it is not a lot of money to play with. We will be talking about that. At 7 30am we will be speaking to the Health Secretary matt hancock. There is news around about vaccines this morning. As. Is news around about vaccines this morninu. �.

Apparently the department of health is going to look at doing a pilot scheme where they do off at the vaccine in some places for longer hours than they do now. The idea here is not that you get 95 year to turn up at 3am. This would be aimed at Health Workers who i maybe coming off a night shift or doing other flexible hours. The government points out that the limiting factor, as they call it, on the Vaccine Programme is not the flow of people into the vaccine centres at all hours, but the flow of actual doses of the vaccine into the country so they can be administered. Of the vaccine into the country so they can be administered. Thank you ve much they can be administered. Thank you very much for they can be administered. Thank you very much for that they can be administered. Thank you very much for that update. First minister Nicola Sturgeon is to announce whether any futher coronavirus restrictions will be imposed in scotland later. Its after the death toll passed 5,000. Alexandra mackenzie is in glasgow for us this morning. What more can you tell us on this . Nicola sturgeon met with her cabinet yesterday to discuss possible further restrictions and we are expecting her to make an announcement in the Scottish Parliament later today. As you said, this comes within a very grim context. Yesterday scotland passed that grim milestone of 5000 deaths since the beginning of the pandemic. Now most of scotland is already in lockdown, so there are very few further restrictions that could be imposed, but there are some things that have been hinted at. One of thoseis that have been hinted at. One of those is a ways, hospitality is close but it is still possible to go for your takeaway coffee. The first minister said yesterday she is not likely to close that completely but there could be further restrictions because the concern is about places where people can still gather together and pass on the virus. Now click and collect is another possible option. John lewis has already stopped click and collect for new orders, so other shops could be asked to stop click and collect. The other option is possibly tradespeople. It is possible to still have tradespeople within your home for essential purposes. We understand that is under review. Now this lockdown is not as strict, or not such a fault lockdown, that we had back in march, but the more restrictions that are imposed, the closer we get to that fault lockdown. The first woman in almost 70 years has been executed by the us government, despite an earlier reprieve. Lisa montgomery was convicted of killing a pregnant woman and taking her unborn child in 2004, but her lawyers had argued she deserved clemency because of severe Mental Illness and the sexual abuse she suffered as a child. A number of senior figures within president Trumps Republican Party are now prepared to support efforts to remove him from office. Democrats, who accuse mr trump of inciting last weeks violent attack on washingtons capitol, are likely to push for a vote later today in the house of representatives. From washington, our correspondent Barbara Plett usher reports. Just one week after the deadly attack on the capitol building, the house is racing to impeach donald trump for inciting it. The president s actions demonstrate his absolute inability to discharge the most basic and fundamental powers and duties of his office. Therefore the president must be removed from office immediately. First, though, democrats pushed the Vice President , mike pence, to take action to invoke the constitution and declare mr trump unfit to govern. He wont do that he warned this move would further inflame the nation. But some republicans have begun to abandon the president including the third Ranking Member in the house, liz cheney. They say they will vote to impeach. The dam is beginning to break. Mr trump hasnt made it any easierfor his party. Venturing out of the white house for the First Time Since the riot, he showed no remorse, accepted no responsibility. The impeachment hoax is a continuation of the greatest and most vicious witch hunt in the history of our country, and is causing tremendous anger and division and pain, far greater than most people will ever understand, which is very dangerous for the usa, especially at this very tender time. In washington, its lawmakers who are getting angrier, as growing evidence shows how brutal the mob was. In a sweeping investigation, dozens have been charged. Hundreds might be. And Security Officials are bracing for more violence ahead ofjoe bidens inauguration. They warn of plans for armed protests even a plot to try and overthrow the government. The country is reaping the whirlwind of Donald Trumps presidency. And today marks a pivotal step in its dramatic end. Mr trump is facing the unprecedented stigma of a second impeachment, and his fractured party is facing a traumatic moment of reckoning. Barbara plett usher, bbc news, washington.

The packages are for pupils who normally get Free School Meals. The government says caterers must urgently improve the quality of meals being provided. Here is the experience of one mum who has asked not to be identified when she received her parcel last week we had a feed package for the first time. It had barely anything in it. Catering size tins of beans, two loaves of bread. A couple of potatoes you could use for jackets. 0dd bits of fruit. And then really unhealthy catering size tins of fruit in syrup. Which ijust couldnt do anything with, i couldnt do anything with, i couldnt make a meal out of it. It makes you feel completely demoralised. Depressed. Really upset. It makes you feel completely powerless. You know, with the vouchers you were empowered to go out and buy food for your children, make healthy meals that they would enjoy. With these, you. The power is all taken away. Theres nothing you can do with what you have been provided with. Really powerful testimony.

Some beams and a bit of bread not really good enough. I was also shocked that potentially 30 quid other funding shocked that potentially 30 quid otherfunding results in about shocked that potentially 30 quid other funding results in about £5 worth of actual food. I couldnt work out how that weight. As the lady was just talking point it out, you reflect and think this is extremely disempowering and demoralising for families who are often struggling and on the edge to be told, this is what you get, take it or leave it, do what you can with it, and sometimes you cant, sometimes the food is not right for the family. It is a really bad look, i think its fair to say. The the family. It is a really bad look, i think its fair to say. I think its fair to say. The other thing that i think its fair to say. The other thing that has i think its fair to say. The other thing that has been i think its fair to say. The other thing that has been quite thing that has been quite interesting has been the speed of the response, certainly in terms of the response, certainly in terms of the words from the government so far. They realised that this is a huge issue which they need to sort immediately. I huge issue which they need to sort immediately immediately. I think they do, but the kee immediately.

I think they do, but they keep doing this. This is immediately. I think they do, but i they keep doing this. This is almost they keep doing this. This is almost the third time we have had, you know, a major sort of messed up. Messed up the basics of providing decent food for Vulnerable Children. It isnt Rocket Science you just have to get the money into the pockets of the families so that they can buy food for their children stuck at home. They are caught up in this contracting to other companies and the local authorities are not particularly empowered and dont particularly empowered and dont particularly know what to do. So it is a mess and it is great they are responding, that they understand this is important, but it keeps happening and we dont. They need to get control of the situation. This is a priority. With all of the other money they are spending in the pandemic, feeding Vulnerable Children is an important part of theirjob. Children is an important part of their ob.

Admitted the parcel in question was not good enough. She has met with the managing director and has assured her that action will be taken immediately to stop deliveries of poor quality parcels. We should also mention that the Voucher Scheme is not being used at the moment because quite a bit of the moment because quite a bit of the food was left over when schools announced they were shutting, which is why some of the food is being sent out in parcels or in hampers. What would you like to see happen now to try to address some of these issues . ~ ~. , issues . Well, i think we need to move as quickly issues . Well, i think we need to move as quickly as issues . Well, i think we need to move as quickly as possible issues . Well, i think we need to move as quickly as possible towards a Voucher Scheme because that will empower families, a Voucher Scheme because that will empowerfamilies, it will a Voucher Scheme because that will empower families, it will be a Voucher Scheme because that will empowerfamilies, it will be much more efficient way of getting the funding into pockets of the families and so they can buy the food that works for their children. But, yes, in the shorter term and uplift of funding so that the schools can get the money they need to produce something decent for the families if you do have to have food parcels in the short term, but also an approach which allows families to say, ok, well, we dont eat that stuff, so can we have Something Else . Even at a food bank and get some choice. Yet you are being handed stuff where you just have to deal with it. Its really, really demeaning. Some of the other powerful really, really demeaning. Some of the other powerful testimony really, really demeaning. Some of the other powerful testimony we | really, really demeaning. Some of the other powerful testimony we have heard is that there is already a stigma attached, and this is something Marcus Rashford has dealt with a lot in recent weeks and months.

I mean, iwork in kind of slap in the face. I mean, i work in a city and families are really struggling, and if you have Something Like that happen, it can just be the last straw, thats all i would say. You are clinging on, help is coming and there help is half a pepper and a couple of carrots and thatis pepper and a couple of carrots and that is just not good enough. You that is ust not good enough. You sa that isjust not good enough. You sa ou that isjust not good enough. You say you wanted that isjust not good enough. You say you wanted Voucher Scheme reinstated. Are you hopeful that will happen, will that practically way or is that too much bureaucracy and red tape to get out of the way . We did before when we had the Voucher Scheme during that summer holiday. I cannot see why it is not possible. We have done all sorts of things. We have done wonderful things. We have done wonderful things about vaccines. Test and trace, whatever. Shortcomings has been a great logistical challenge. If we can bend even a proportion of that logistical genius towards getting food to children, which i will emphasise is basic and important, then i think we can easily do it. Dr important, then i think we can easily do it important, then i think we can easil do it. ,. Easily do it. Dr max davie, officer for health improvement, easily do it.

A large scale trial of a new treatment hoped to help covid 19 patients from developing severe illness began in the uk yesterday. The first patient received the treatment at Hull Royal Infirmary. It involves inhaling a protein called interferon beta which the body produces when it gets a viral infection. Justin rowlatt reports. Alexandra constantine inhales the new treatment deep into her lungs. The 34 year old was admitted to Hull Royal Infirmary with covid 19 on monday night. She has a young daughter at home she is desperate to get back to. Just a short more for try to make myself comfortable. I start to feel very tired and i start to sweating, and all my body start to be in pain. I never feel this before. Its. Its horrible. Alexandra is the first patient to receive the treatment as part of this new Clinical Trial. The treatment uses a protein called interferon beta, which is part of our bodys natural immune response. Right, so this is the device that actually aerosol ises the drug. Professor Tom Wilkinson is overseeing the trial. Its helping themselves really reconstitute their immune response to fight off the virus. Therefore, theres less damage to the lungs, less symptoms, less risk of admission to intensive care, or even death. And so thats what we are studying in the trial, those effects. The drug was developed here at Southampton University hospital. Bbc news filmed an earlier trial last year. The results were very promising. It suggested it cut the odds of a covid 19 patient in hospital getting severe disease by almost 80 , and brought a significant reduction in breathlessness, a key symptom. But the trial was small, just 100 patients. This new so called phase three Clinical Trial will involve more than 600 patients in 20 countries. But drugs often dont live up to their early promise, warns dr lamis latif. Although its exciting, we have to see what the results show, and weve also had other drugs in similar circumstances. Weve had hydroxychloroquine, for example, but again when that reached further trials, it wasnt as promising as it initially made out to be, so thats something to really take note for this current drug. This building behind me is Southampton Hospitals brand new intensive care unit. The doctors here say because of the covid crisis, it is full at the moment. Now this drug trial should be finished byjune. If the drug proves effective, the Company Hopes approval will follow shortly after that. Then it will be available to help patients and, of course, to alleviate pressure on the nhs. Justin rowlatt, bbc news, southampton. The execution of the only woman on the us federal death row has gone ahead by lethal injection, despite an earlier reprieve. Yesterday a judge ruled that 52 year old lisa montgomery, a convicted murderer, was not mentally competent to understand the governments rationale for her execution. A warning some may find the details of montgomerys crimes in nomia iqbal� s report distressing. On the road side opposite the prison, many came to have their say. Since last summer this town has seen nine people sent to their deaths. It is after federal executions were resumed by the government for the first time in nearly two decades. And now, lisa montgomery, the only woman on federal death row, is the latest. In a statement, her lawyer kelly henry said. Her lawyers and advocates say montgomery wasnt worst of society but the most broken. And that as a mentally ill victim of child abuse she deserved mercy. She should have been kept behind bars for the rest of her life. The only people kept outside jail believe she shouldnt have and put to death and that it wasnt up to the governor to decide. We have seen people driving past, shouting abuse at the protesters because many think that Capital Punishment should exist for a shocking crime like this. In 2004, montgomery travelled from her home in kansas and missouri to visit bobbyjoe stennett, who was heavily pregnant. She strangled her and kidnaps the baby from her womb. The baby survived. Bobbyjoe sinnott bled to death. To those close to b joe, the death of montgomery is all they want, including the Police Officer who tracked it down. The case once officer who tracked it down. The case once those officer who tracked it down. Tue case once those of officer who tracked it down. Tta case once those of us who worked it. This is a devil come back to disguised as lisa montgomery. For those who sat here into the night they hoped montgomerys fate would have been decided next week by the new president. Joe biden has indicated he would abolish the federal death penalty, but time ran out, closing the page on the tortured life and horrific crime of lisa montgomery.

Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. The mayor and London Councils have written an open letter to the Prime Minister, setting out a list of tighter restrictions they want to see introduced across the capital. Theyre asking for mandatory mask wearing in busy areas outdoors, for places of worship to be closed, and for what counts as essential retail to be looked at again. A Government Spokesperson told us they are keeping the rules under constant review. The rising infection rates mean people who are clinically vulnerable have been advised to shield again. They include the family of six year old jackson, who has a rare terminal illness. He and his parents and three year old sister spent most of last year at their home in east tilbury in essex to keep him safe, and told us how its been. We just have to make a really tough decision every time we go out. Its really tough, but we just have to crack on because its life and you have to crack on. You have to. Like, seren needs to have a decent upbringing, a normal upbringing, not being locked away and saying that her best friends the trampoline, you know . Its not right to hear things like that. Playgrounds across london are still open during lockdown for children to exercise. One council is introducing wardens to try to improve safety. Waltham Forest Council has 13 play safe champions, who will patrol some of the boroughs council run playgrounds, cleaning equipment and advising parents on social distancing. With londons galleries shut, and non essential shops closed, eight artists are using the shopfronts to display their work. Theyre hoping the installations in High Street Kensington will brighten up the area for local people during the winter months. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Tfl rail has minor delays between Liverpool Street and shenfield. The waterloo city line is still closed. This is how it looks heading towards tower hill on the highway queues westbound its because the rotherhithe tunnel is closed for repairs. Lambeth bridge is closed eastbound for works. And in neasden, neasden lane north is still closed between the a406 and aboyne road. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Theres some rain in the forecast for us today, and its a chilly start to the morning with a touch of frost out there, a few patches of mist around, and plenty of cloud, as well. Now the cloud is thickening from the west and eventually well see these outbreaks of rain move their way eastwards. The rain will be with us for much of the rest of the day most of it will tend to be quite light and patchy. It brings with it some milder air. So milder out towards western spots today, but still rather chilly, with temperatures in mid single figures towards eastern home counties. Now as we head through this evening and overnight, then the rainll fade away for a bit, but then more showery outbreaks of rain some of this could be quite heavy as we head into thursday morning and, again, its a rather cold start to the day. So a wet morning on thursday, but a drier afternoon. Feeling rather chilly again on thursday and, by the time we get to friday, its dry again. There could be some spells of brightness, and the winds will fall a touch lighter but its still cold. Wet and windy again on saturday. Im back in an hour. Theres plenty more on our website. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and Louise Minchin. It is almost half past seven. Scotlands first minister Nicola Sturgeon is set to decide whether to impose tighter coronavirus restrictions today, after fears the stay at home message isnt working.

So we are putting more funding into support the people who have problems with mental the people who have problems with Mental Health in this very difficult time Mental Health in this very difficult time and Mental Health in this very difficult time. And clearly, there are pressures time. And clearly, there are pressures on Mental Health. It specifically, we have also seen some very big specifically, we have also seen some very big challenges amongst the nhs workforce. Of course, because of the enormous workforce. Of course, because of the enormous pressures they are under. But there enormous pressures they are under. But there is enormous pressures they are under. But there is something everybody can do about but there is something everybody can do about that, which is to stay at home do about that, which is to stay at home and do about that, which is to stay at home and to follow the rules and to help to home and to follow the rules and to help to control the spread of the virus. Help to control the spread of the virus. And help to control the spread of the virus, and therefore reduce the pressure virus, and therefore reduce the pressure that the nhs is under right now. Pressure that the nhs is under right now so pressure that the nhs is under right now so we pressure that the nhs is under right now. So we are putting more funding in. Now. So we are putting more funding in and now. So we are putting more funding in and we now. So we are putting more funding in. And we are supporting the front line of in.

Lets talk the pressure on the nhs right now. Lets talk about that pressure. We are seeing over a thousand deaths being reported a day. Infection rates at over 50,000 a day as well. Is this the peak . Well, i wanted to be, but is this the peak . Well, i wanted to be, but again, that comes down to the behaviour of everyone. You know, we have the behaviour of everyone. You know, we have brought in this National Lockdown we have brought in this National Lockdown. The rules are really simple. Lockdown.

We dont say these things lightly~ important. We dont say these things lightly. They are very important, to try to lightly. They are very important, to try to get lightly. They are very important, to try to get at lightly. They are very important, to try to get at the number of cases coming try to get at the number of cases coming down. And we know that if this can coming down. And we know that if this can work because we know that the only this can work because we know that the only way the virus spreads is when the only way the virus spreads is when people meet each other or on surfaces when people meet each other or on surfaces so when people meet each other or on surfaces. So we can all play a part in making surfaces. So we can all play a part in making this happen. I must sound like a in making this happen. I must sound like a broken in making this happen. I must sound like a broken record on that, but its so like a broken record on that, but its so important, its true. And together its so important, its true. And together we can make this the peak, if enough together we can make this the peak, if enough people follow the rules which if enough people follow the rules which are if enough people follow the rules which are incredibly clear. I am aoain which are incredibly clear. I am going back which are incredibly clear. I am going back to which are incredibly clear. I am going back to that which are incredibly clear.

But we watch it like a hawk that it is. But we watch it like a hawk but that it is. But we watch it like a hawk. But the other thing is, if you ask the hawk. But the other thing is, if you ask the question, is this the peak, it sounds ask the question, is this the peak, it sounds to ask the question, is this the peak, it sounds to all of us like that is something it sounds to all of us like that is something external. The truth is that whether or not this is the peak of this that whether or not this is the peak of this winter wave of coronavirus, is not of this winter wave of coronavirus, is not external to us all, it is down is not external to us all, it is down to is not external to us all, it is down to all is not external to us all, it is down to all of us, you, me, everybody down to all of us, you, me, everybody watching this programme, we can everybody watching this programme, we can all everybody watching this programme, we can all do our bit.

And so they stay increase its spread. And so they stay at increase its spread. And so they stay at home as it is therefore the total stay at home as it is therefore the total clarity that the best of best total clarity that the best of best thing total clarity that the best of best thing everybody can do is to stay at best thing everybody can do is to stay at home unless there is a reason, stay at home unless there is a reason, and unavoidable reason, for having reason, and unavoidable reason, for having to reason, and unavoidable reason, for having to leave.

We have all seen those pictures of ambulances having to leave. We have all seen. Those pictures of ambulances waiting outside of hospitals. There is no doubt, and you indicated there, the pressure of the nhs is under. Many sing the peak from the hospitals may be next month. Can the nhs cope . Will it be overwhelmed . Be next month.

That includes, for instance. Resources it needs. That includes, for instance, opening the Nightingale Hospital is, the london Nightingale Hospital is, the london Nightingale Hospital is now receiving patients for the first time receiving patients for the First Time Since april. So we are giving the nhs time since april. So we are giving the nhs everything that we can. And thats the nhs everything that we can. And thats obviously necessary at the moment, thats obviously necessary at the moment, because there are over 30,000 moment, because there are over 30,000 people in hospital with coronavirus at the moment. But this is a big coronavirus at the moment. But this is a big collective effort. One of the things is a big collective effort. One of the things about a pandemic is that whilst the things about a pandemic is that whilst it the things about a pandemic is that whilst it is the things about a pandemic is that whilst it is affecting all of our lives whilst it is affecting all of our lives because of the restrictions that weve lives because of the restrictions that weve unfortunately had to put in place. That weve unfortunately had to put in place, the flip side of that is everybody can play their part, everybody can play their part, everybody can play their part, everybody can do something about it. So yes, everybody can do something about it. So yes, we everybody can do something about it. So yes, we are putting the extra resources so yes, we are putting the extra resources into the nhs, and i want to support resources into the nhs, and i want to support everybody working in the nhs as to support everybody working in the nhs as much as is possible to get through nhs as much as is possible to get through this, both with supporting their Mental Health and also making sure that, their Mental Health and also making sure that, you know, theyve got the resources sure that, you know, theyve got the resources that are needed. But it is notjust resources that are needed. But it is notiust for resources that are needed. But it is notjust for me resources that are needed. But it is not just for me as Health Secretary.

Scotland are looking at a the rules around take a ways, perhaps around the click and collect, round tradespeople in homes. Are you looking at changing the rules . Ltinfoil. Looking at changing the rules . Well, we alwa s looking at changing the rules . Well, we always keep looking at changing the rules . Well, we always keep these looking at changing the rules . Well, we always keep these things under review we always keep these things under review. And what i would say is that what review. And what i would say is that what really review. And what i would say is that what really matters now, what really matters, what really matters now, what really matters, is what really matters now, what really matters, is the degree to which everybody follows the existing rules everybody follows the existing rules. So of course you can always make rules. So of course you can always make changes. But we brought in a very. Make changes. But we brought in a very. Very make changes. But we brought in a very, very significant restriction, the stay at home measures, with a limited the stay at home measures, with a limited number of exemptions of what you can limited number of exemptions of what you can leave home, for exercise, to id you can leave home, for exercise, to go to you can leave home, for exercise, to go to work you can leave home, for exercise, to go to work if you can leave home, for exercise, to go to work if you cant work from homer go to work if you cant work from home and go to work if you cant work from home, and to get essential supplies, and for home, and to get essential supplies, and for health reasons. There are a small and for health reasons. There are a small number of others. So you can, it is possible small number of others. So you can, it is possible then to make further restrictions. But at what i would say is restrictions. But at what i would say is the restrictions. But at what i would say is the most important thing is the compliance with the existing measures. That is the thing that is going measures. That is the thing that is going to measures. That is the thing that is going to make the difference. Because going to make the difference. Because if you act like everyone has. Ot because if you act like everyone has got the because if you act like everyone has got the virus, then you are highly unlikely got the virus, then you are highly unlikely to got the virus, then you are highly unlikely to catch it yourself. You know. Unlikely to catch it yourself. You know. We unlikely to catch it yourself. You know, we all know the things that we need to know, we all know the things that we need to do. Know, we all know the things that we need to do, which is to stay at home need to do, which is to stay at home and need to do, which is to stay at home, and if you do have to go out, to follow home, and if you do have to go out, to follow social distancing, so you dont to follow social distancing, so you dont get to follow social distancing, so you dont get in to follow social distancing, so you dont get in close contact with somebody else. It all comes down to the fact somebody else. It all comes down to the fact that one in three people. Et the fact that one in three people get this the fact that one in three people get this disease without any symptoms but can still pass it on. So that symptoms but can still pass it on. So that is symptoms but can still pass it on. So that is the central message. The critical so that is the central message. The critical importance of everybody following the existing rules. We soke to following the existing rules. , spoke to somebody from university couege spoke to somebody from university College London today who looked specifically at compliance. There is a vast majority of people who are following the rules, a small number that dont, and one of the worlds most likely to be broken is the number of people they meet outside. Would you look at changing that specifically . Specifically . Well, as i say, we alwa s specifically . Well, as i say, we always keep specifically . Well, as i say, we always keep these specifically . Well, as i say, we always keep these things specifically . Well, as i say, we| always keep these things under review always keep these things under review. But you have got to balance the downsides. You know, we have made the downsides. You know, we have made these the downsides. You know, we have made these decisions for a careful reason made these decisions for a careful reason the made these decisions for a careful reason. The rule is clear. You can io reason. The rule is clear. You can go outside reason. The rule is clear. You can go outside to reason. The rule is clear. You can go outside to exercise with one other go outside to exercise with one other person, not a group of people, one other other person, not a group of people, one other person. And it should be for the one other person. And it should be for the purposes of exercise, not socialising for the purposes of exercise, not socialising. But i am very reluctant to remove socialising. But i am very reluctant to remove this rule because for some people to remove this rule because for some people this to remove this rule because for some people this is a lifeline. You know, for some people this is a lifeline. You know, for some people who live alone, the ability for some people who live alone, the ability to for some people who live alone, the ability to go and meet one other person ability to go and meet one other person at ability to go and meet one other person at a two metre distance outside person at a two metre distance outside, so the likelihood of spread from people following that rule is very. From people following that rule is very. Very from people following that rule is very, very small. Two metres distance very, very small. Two metres distance, outside, for the purposes of exercise distance, outside, for the purposes of exercise, not socialising. But there of exercise, not socialising. But there are of exercise, not socialising. But there are some people who are stretching that rule. And therefore people stretching that rule. And therefore people say you should get rid of the rule altogether. What id rather it is everybody follows that rule and doesnt is everybody follows that rule and doesnt flex it, and im really glad to see doesnt flex it, and im really glad to see there is an increase in police to see there is an increase in police presence. I dont know if you have police presence. I dont know if you have noticed that. But i have and i have have noticed that. But i have and i have seen have noticed that. But i have and i have seen it have noticed that. But i have and i have seen it in the figures. So people have seen it in the figures. So people shouldnt take the mickey out of the people shouldnt take the mickey out of the rules and they shouldnt stretch of the rules and they shouldnt stretch the rules. People should respect stretch the rules.

Good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and Louise Minchin. Our headlines today. Ministers admit free food parcels for children must urgently improve as the mother who sparked the row tells this programme why she shared this photo. As i unpacked that food parcel in my living room, and looked at the contents, it felt very sad. Changes to covid restrictions in scotland tighter rules on takeaways and shopping are expected. The impact of the pandemic on intensive care staff a new report shows high levels of stress depression and anxiety. I personally cry when i get home quite a lot, actually, at the moment. Sleep were suffering the sleep problems, i think, a lot of nurses and doctors at the moment as well. No mask, no entry more of the big supermarkets toughen their stance. We hear from workers facing confrontation and abuse as they try to enforce the rules. Manchester united are top of the premier league. Paul pogbas volley helps them beat burnley, but calls to respect social distancing rules during celebrations are ignored. Good morning, a cold start for some, particularly in the north and east. Some icy stretches around this morning but it will be cloudy day with outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow over the hills. I have more in about ten minutes. Its wednesday, the 13th of january. The Health Secretary matt hancock has told bbc breakfast in the last half hour that images of food parcels that have been sent to some children in england are clearly inadequate. Caterers have been told to urgently improve the quality of the packages. The woman who took the photo has been speaking exclusively to breakfast. As keith doyle reports, she describes the moment her children saw the contents of the parcel. As i unpacked that food parcel in my living room and looked at the contents, it felt very sad and very depressing. And one of my children came in and saw me laying this out on the floor and asked why, and i said i was going to picture it because i didnt think it looked like a lot. And i could see the childs realisation that, this is what ive been given to eat for a week, and just the sense of sadness. Where has the rest of the food gone . You know, this is meant to be a weeks food. Why is it so mean . This is the reaction to the Free School Meals food parcel this mum received to feed her children. Sarah who does not want to be identified, to protect her two children is disabled and relies on Free School Meals. Reaction to sarahs tweet was swift on social media, with the footballer Marcus Rashford, who has campaigned for Free School Meals, reposting what other families said they had received. Government guidelines say school meals should contain items which parents can use to prepare healthy lunches across the week. They were replaced with vouchers during previous lockdowns in england, but because suppliers were contracted to provide meals before the Current National lockdown was announced, theyve been sending food parcels instead. Its fine for kind of a weeks worth of snacks, but for the kids who are on Free School Meals, often their School Dinner is their major nutritional kind of dose of the day, and to have that turned into a sort of, you know, some beans and a bit of bread is not really good enough. After meeting the company at the centre of this row, the minister for children, vicky ford, said. Chartwells, the company which supplied this parcel, is not the only uk supplier. It said it would refund the cost where any parcels did not meet their usual High Standard, and it would be. For sarah, thats a move in the right direction. Its a very positive step that they are going to look at where gaps have occurred, why they have occurred, and seek to resolve them. You know, thats great to see that progress. The government says vouchers worth £15 per week per child will be available from next week, and it will give further details later today. Keith doyle, bbc news. Our chief Political Correspondent adam fleming is in westminster for us this morning. Good morning to you. A Swift Response from the government and something matt hancock was keen to talk about this morning, as well. Yeah, you heard him say the pictures we also this morning were completely unacceptable. The Prime Minister had a similar reaction. When told when he saw the pitch he said, that is appalling that is why the government is moving quite quickly to bring in the company, and urge them to make an apology, make sure it doesnt happen again. We will wait and see because of course people are posting other pictures of their food people are posting other pictures of theirfood parcels people are posting other pictures of their food parcels they have received in the last few days. The government is very sensitive about this issue because they know they have had problems with it before and we have seen just how emotive it is when it comes to childrens health, and then you get much loved people like Marcus Rashford and Nigella Lawson getting involved on social media and i think we might get some details later today about what the government is going to do about this going forward. For example, will there be an easy way for you to report to them if you get a food parcel you think is unacceptable . That is one to continue to follow over the next few days. Something else which is very much a hot topic of debate at the moment is the current restrictions we are living under and whether they will get tighter. Under and whether they will get ti. Hter. Under and whether they will get tiahter. ,. ,. , tighter. Yeah, so at the moment the focus by the tighter. Yeah, so at the moment the focus by the government tighter. Yeah, so at the moment the focus by the government is tighter. Yeah, so at the moment the focus by the government is not tighter. Yeah, so at the moment the focus by the government is not on i focus by the government is not on putting on new restrictions or tighter restrictions, it is getting all of us to follow the existing rules. Now, yesterday, the government board of case rates actually gave what looked like maybe some optimistic positive news because it showed the average number of cases over the last seven days have actually decreased by 0. 5 . That bit of the graph, the arrow went green rather than red for an increase. Howeverthe went green rather than red for an increase. However the government by saying that is very marginal and you should not look atjust one figure as a sort of symbol of hope, which is white matt said this. We dont know, of course. We publish the data every day. I hope that it is. But we watch it like a hawk. But the other thing is, you ask the question, is this the peak . It sounds to all of us like that is something external. The truth is that whether or not this is the peak of this winter wave of coronavirus, its not external to us all, it is down to all of us you, me, everybody watching this programme we can all do our bit. And the government is actually quite pleased that supermarkets like morrisons, waitrose and sainsbury� s are going to do more to enforce the existing rules, like Wearing Masks in the stories and using the one way system, because it means the government doesnt have to think about introducing stuff that is even topic.

Adam, good to talk to you, thank yom first minister Nicola Sturgeon is to announce whether any futher coronavirus restrictions will be imposed in scotland later. Its after the death toll passed 5,000. Alexandra mackenzie is in glasgow for us this morning. Just give an indication of what they are looking at. Just give an indication of what they are looking at just give an indication of what they are looking at. Nicola sturgeon met with her cabinet are looking at. Nicola sturgeon met with her cabinet yesterday. Are looking at. Nicola sturgeon met with her cabinet yesterday. As are looking at. Nicola sturgeon met with her cabinet yesterday. As you | with her cabinet yesterday. As you said we are expecting this announcement in the Scottish Parliament later today and, yes, as we hit that grim milestone, 5000 deaths since the beginning of the pandemic, and more people in hospital now than at any other stage in the pandemic. Most of scotland is already in pretty much lockdown, so it is quite difficult in a way to know where the governance can go, but we understand they are looking at takeaway is. Hospitality is closed but you can still go and get your takeaway coffee. They are concerned that as people queue up outside, people may be gathering more than they should, and the virus could be passed on to people in that way. So we understand that that is one of the things under review. And also click and collect. John lewis we know has already stopped their click and collect service. There may be further restrictions here, some of the shops may have to stop that service. The other thing we understand is under review is tradespeople. Currently tradespeople are allowed into your home for essential purposes is that we understand that these essential purposes are possibly under review. Now we will hear exactly what is happening later on this afternoon. Thank you for the update. The first woman in almost 70 years has been executed by the us government, despite an earlier reprieve. Lisa montgomery was convicted of killing a pregnant woman and taking her unborn child in 2004, but her lawyers had argued she deserved clemency because of severe Mental Illness and the sexual abuse she suffered as a child. A number of Senior Republicans say they are now prepared to support the attempt to impeach President Trump for a second time.

More people are now being treated in hospital with covid than at any other point during the crisis and the pressure of the pandemic continues to take its toll on our Health Workers. Now research from kings College London has found that almost half of intensive care staff are suffering from severe anxiety, ptsd, and problem drinking. Breakfast� s Graham Satchell reports. The thin line between life and death is played out here in intensive care. But never has the pressure on staff been so great. Intensive care units are full. The staff are incredibly stretched at the moment. And, really, i guess many people are breaking themselves to try and make this work right now. Staff breaking themselves. This pandemic has been going on for almost a year, and the consequences for nhs staff are now becoming clear. A new report shows high levels of stress, depression, anxiety. Were all supporting each other, luckily. And were trying to save lives. Erm. Were alljust doing what we can to save peoples loved ones. The relentless pressure laid bare in this video by nurse Shirley Watts in the first wave last april. And were sinking a little bit, but were still turning up and were trying to do our best. Todays study by kings College London shows Poor Mental Health is now common amongst intensive care staff. It says 40 have symptoms of post Traumatic Stress. 11 have severe anxiety. And 13 have frequent thoughts of being better off dead or hurting themselves. Doctors like Zudin Puthucheary are used to saving peoples lives not having them die in huge numbers. Part of being in intensive care is that you give up a lot of yourself to try and do your best for your patients. And sometimes, when it doesnt work out, it can be very painful. This is St Georges Hospital in london, the sheer number of patients here causing significant stress. Im looking after many more sick patients than i normally look after. Itsjust overwhelming, the whole situation. I personally cry when i get home quite a lot, actually, at the moment. Sleep were suffering with sleep problems, i think, a lot of nurses and doctors at the moment, as well. We just do have to keep going because we have to be here for patients. But i do worry, you know, about the scars that will leave some of our staff with. An nhs spokesperson told us theyve invested £15 million in Mental Health support. But the intensive care society, which represents staff, says not enough is being done. Its now appealing to the public for support to help maintain the well being of front line medical workers. We need to raise funds for these resources, because there is no plan in how well rehabilitate the staff in the pandemic. This pandemic will have many unfortunate lasting legacies. One is the damage its doing to nhs staff. Graham satchell, bbc news. Lets speak to dame donna kinnair, the chief executive of the Royal College of nursing, and dr caroline walker, a psychiatrist whos been counselling icu workers. Thank you both very much indeed for joining us. Thank you both very much indeed for oinin us. ,. ,. , thank you both very much indeed for oinin us. , thank you both very much indeed for joining us dame thank you both very much indeed for.

Dame donna kinnair, we really get a joining us. Good morning. Dame donna kinnair, we really get a sense joining us. Good morning. Dame donna kinnair, we really get a sense of kinnair, we really get a sense of how people are. With the nurses, what are the main issues for them . Its really awful at the moment because its really awful at the moment because we are in unprecedented times because we are in unprecedented times. One of the biggest issues is that they times. One of the biggest issues is that they are not only having to convert that they are not only having to convert relatives, look after sick patients, convert relatives, look after sick patients, carrying the stress of not having patients, carrying the stress of not having enough staff to look after those having enough staff to look after those patients because, actually, when those patients because, actually, when the those patients because, actually, when the public see an itu they dont when the public see an itu they dont recognise that everybody dressed dont recognise that everybody dressed in ppe isnt a nurse, they are people dressed in ppe isnt a nurse, they are people who have been drafted in, volunteering to help. So actually the stress volunteering to help. So actually the stress levels that you carry when the stress levels that you carry when you the stress levels that you carry when you have the responsibility of ventilated when you have the responsibility of ventilated patients and having to direct ventilated patients and having to direct others that are not used to working direct others that are not used to working there, is problematic. And so when working there, is problematic. And so when i working there, is problematic. And so when i talk to the nurses, they are feeling so when i talk to the nurses, they are feeling awful not just from the stress are feeling awful not just from the stress that they have in kerry, but also we stress that they have in kerry, but also we are stress that they have in kerry, but also we are seeing colleagues die or become also we are seeing colleagues die or become ill, also we are seeing colleagues die or become ill, having family members, so there become ill, having family members, so there are become ill, having family members, so there are a number of stresses on these so there are a number of stresses on these individuals, but of course what these individuals, but of course what the these individuals, but of course what the nhs staff are used to doing is pulling what the nhs staff are used to doing is pulling together and supporting their patients. And the long term effects their patients. And the long term effects will be later down the road. Caroline, effects will be later down the road.

For details of organisations which offer advice and support on the issues raised, go online to bbc. Co. Uk actionline. A group of leading charities has told bbc breakfast more must be done by the government to support people who are shielding during this lockdown. That includes financial, practical and emotional support, for them and their carers, to make sure theyre protected until they get a vaccine. Breakfast� s Jayne Mccubbin has been speaking to three families about the challenges they face. Next time. These are precious moments of life before lockdown. If we could rewind a year, what type of stuff would you normally be filling your time with, martha . Ive got college. Wed be spending more time with nana. Youre missing all these people in your life. You do. Its all right. You want it to be over. I need to share my contact. To hug somebody or to touch somebodys hand, which i have not done since march last year. The expectation is for clinically Vulnerable People to get vaccinated by mid february, but i worry it wont come in time for me. This is the hardest thing by far. Having shielded for so long, i would hate to so narrowly miss out on being a father and a husband. Those shielding have given up so much to stay safe, and just as the Vaccination Programme begins with protection in sight we hit the very peak of the pandemic and the risks couldnt be greater. Shaan, sophia and martha have all been shielded now for ten months. Martha was born with a congenital heart defect and has a learning disability. And shes so vulnerable that these four walls have become her world shes isolating even within her own home. You have been quite isolated, havent you . Yeah. And now because none of us are at work or school again, were mixing, you know . I havent sat this close to martha since september. I had to give one of myjobs up. So i was furloughed for a number of months and then it reopened it was hospitality so i went back and it just didnt feel safe. Itjust wasnt something i could continue doing. So i left. So, yeah, ive had quite a drop in income. Today, Charities Say more should be done to protect those shielding financially, practically and emotionally. Just one thing has kept sophia going. Could we meet him . I can move the ipad and hes in his bed. Can i move the ipad . Yeah, is that ok . Can you see him at all . 0h jay has been my only companion, and i really love and care for in a way. If i didnt have him, i would have been totally lost. There are times that. I do feel really low, and when will all this end . Giggling. My husband, shaan, is 37. Hes got motor neurone disease. He cant move, cant speak. His medical team. Told us at the start of the pandemic that he wouldnt stand a chance against covid, and even in the nicest possible way questioning whether it would be worth going to hospital. How about 7 6 . Cedric hasnt been in school for ten months. For the first five months, he never left the home. Huge sacrifices have been made by everyone to keep his dad safe. But their fear is the clock is ticking and the promised vaccine is still too far away. Our son cedric and his daddy have just become so incredibly close. Theyve become like best buddies, and itjust is so heart warming seeing how much cedric needs his daddy in his life for as long as possible. There are some positives and things that have come out of this that are positive, but at the same time many people with disabilities feeling unimportant and invisible. The department for health and social care told us the clinically extremely vulnerable are being prioritised, and that £32 million has been given to local councils to provide extra help. But all of these charities today say more needs to be done to help over two Million People across the uk who feel forgotten. The first thing is making sure that people who are shielding and many disabled people have enough in their pocket to get by and that they� re financially supported. Secondly is around the Vaccination Programme and the roll out. Its really good to see that many older disabled people are going to be prioritised for the roll out, but i think for younger groups of disabled people particularly those with a learning disability they look at that list and they dont see themselves. Shaan and cedric miss trips to the beach. Sophia misses her friends in the theatre. Martha misses her grandma more than anything else. We want to be with her. You will. You will but with infection rates yet to peak, they know these are sacrifices which will last well into the spring and a price they have to pay to stay safe. Jayne mccubbin, bbc news. Inside.

People are struggling and finding life difficult and for the magic of video caught we get a real insight into peoples lives. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. The mayor and London Councils have written an open letter to the Prime Minister, setting out a list of tighter restrictions they want to see introduced across the capital. Theyre asking for mandatory mask wearing in busy areas outdoors, for places of worship to be closed and for what counts as essential retail to be looked at again. A Government Spokesperson told us they are keeping the rules under constant review. The rising infection rates mean people who are clinically vulnerable have been advised to shield again. They include the family of six year old jackson, who has a rare terminal illness. He and his parents and three year old sister spent most of last year at their home in east tilbury in essex to keep him safe, and told us how its been. We just have to make a really tough decision every time we go out. Its really tough, but we just have to crack on because its life and you have to crack on. You have to. Like, seren needs to have a decent upbringing, a normal upbringing, not being locked away and saying that her best friends the trampoline, you know . Its not right to hear things like that. Playgrounds across london are still open during lockdown for children to exercise. One council is introducing wardens to try to improve safety. Waltham Forest Council has 13 play safe champions, who will patrol some of the boroughs council run playgrounds, cleaning equipment, and advise parents on social distancing. With londons galleries shut, and non essential shops closed, eight artists are using the shopfronts to display their work. Theyre hoping the installations in High Street Kensington will brighten up the area for local people during the winter months. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. A train broke down earlier at edgware road, so there are severe delays on the circle line, and on the hammersmith and city line, and minor delays on the metropolitan line. Lets take a look at the roads in tower hill. The rotherhithe tunnel is closed for repairs. Its causing problems there are delays northbound on tower bridge road and westbound on the highway. And lambeth bridge is closed eastbound for works. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Theres some rain in the forecast for us today, and its a chilly start to the morning with a touch of frost out there, a few patches of mist around, and plenty of cloud, as well. Now the cloud is thickening from the west and eventually well see these outbreaks of rain move their way eastwards. The rain will be with us for much of the rest of the day most of it will tend to be quite light and patchy. It brings with it some milder air. So milder out towards western spots today, but still rather chilly, with temperatures in mid single figures towards eastern home counties. Now as we head through this evening and overnight, then the rainll fade away for a bit, but then more showery outbreaks of rain some of this could be quite heavy as we head into thursday morning and, again, its a rather cold start to the day. So a wet morning on thursday, but a drier afternoon. Feeling rather chilly again on thursday and, by the time we get to friday, its dry again. There could be some spells of brightness, and the winds will fall a touch lighter but its still cold. Wet and windy again on saturday. Ill be back in an hour. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and Louise Minchin. Ministers say they want to vaccinate everyone in a high risk category by the middle of february. To do that theyll have to aim for 350,000 jabs a day. Thousands of Armed Forces Personnel have been deployed to help roll out the programme alongside gps. According to the latest figures, just over 145,000 people had their first dose of one of the three approved covid 19 vaccines in the most recent 2a hour period. That takes the overall number of people whove had their firstjab to more than two point four million. Joining us now from South East London is dr nikki kanani, medical director of primary care at nhs england. Good morning to you. Thank you for being with us. Lovely to talk to you. We have had a lot of questions coming your way. We will try to get through as many as we can. Give us an idea of where we are up to in terms of trying to vaccinate those priority groups . Terms of trying to vaccinate those priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you can priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. Can i priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. Can i just priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. Can i just say priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. Can i just say thank priority groups . Yeah, absolutely. | thank you. Can i just say thank you for stubble thank you. Can i just say thank you for stubble the incredible teams both who for stubble the incredible teams both who have been vaccinating and those both who have been vaccinating and those behind the scenes who have been those behind the scenes who have been creating the ability to deliver so many been creating the ability to deliver so many vaccinations over the last few weeks . So many vaccinations over the last few weeks . Its really quite incredible. We are progressing at a pace through our priority cohorts one and pace through our priority cohorts one and two. Care home staff, residents, one and two. Care home staff, residents, over80s one and two. Care home staff, residents, over 80s and social care staff residents, over 80s and social care staff they residents, over 80s and social care staff. They are our absolute priority staff. They are our absolute priority. As supply ramps up we will vaccinate priority. As supply ramps up we will vaccinate over 70s, over 70 fives and the vaccinate over 70s, over 70 fives and the clinically extremely vulnerable. You might know that category vulnerable. You might know that category as people who have been shielding category as people who have been shielding. So getting through those four cohorts is our priority by the middle four cohorts is our priority by the middle of four cohorts is our priority by the middle of february. Gk. Four cohorts is our priority by the middle of february. Four cohorts is our priority by the middle of february. Ok. In terms of those issues middle of february. Ok. In terms of those issues that middle of february. Ok. In terms of those issues that people middle of february. Ok. In terms of those issues that people are those issues that people are bringing up with us this morning with the comments and the e mails they have been sending in, can you clear up the issue of, if one area is sort of a head in terms of getting through one group in that priority list, do they move onto the next area or do they have to wait for other areas catch up . Next area or do they have to wait for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tric , for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky. Isnt for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky. Isnt it . For other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky, isnt it . We for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky, isnt it . We have for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky, isnt it . We have got for other areas catch up . Yeah, its tricky, isnt it . We have got peoplej tricky, isnt it . We have got people who arem tricky, isnt it . We have got people who are. The amount of vaccine being who are. The amount of vaccine being administered and given to people being administered and given to people is being administered and given to people is incredible. But we need to make people is incredible. But we need to make sure people is incredible. But we need to make sure it is level across the country make sure it is level across the country. You know, not overly manage it, country. You know, not overly manage it. But country. You know, not overly manage it. But make country. You know, not overly manage it, but make sure that somebody is seen it, but make sure that somebody is seen to it, but make sure that somebody is seen to getting into groups of five or six seen to getting into groups of five or six when seen to getting into groups of five or six when somebody over 80 hasnt been offered their vaccine in other parts been offered their vaccine in other parts of been offered their vaccine in other parts of the country. We have to manage parts of the country. We have to manage that a little bit. All sites will get manage that a little bit. All sites will get vaccines this week and next week will get vaccines this week and next week and will get vaccines this week and next week and weeks going forward. So everybody week and weeks going forward. So everybody has got a delivery. Of the volume everybody has got a delivery. Of the volume of everybody has got a delivery. Of the volume of that delivery, the amount of vaccine volume of that delivery, the amount of vaccine that sites are giving, in slightly of vaccine that sites are giving, in slightly different, depending on how many people to have left him priority many people to have left him priority care or how quickly they have priority care or how quickly they have come priority care or how quickly they have come on. If they have been vaccinating have come on. If they have been vaccinating since the 14th or 15th of december, there is a good chance they have of december, there is a good chance they have covered most of their priority they have covered most of their priority cohorts of one and two. Its important then the people who started its important then the people who started vaccinating yesterday or today. Started vaccinating yesterday or today, get more vaccine so they can catch today, get more vaccine so they can catch up today, get more vaccine so they can catch up for today, get more vaccine so they can catch up for their patients. That will be helpful catch up for their patients. That will be helpful for catch up for their patients. Trust will be helpful for some of our viewers. This is a question from kevin spratt. He says, my dad is 88, lives near tring, received a letter yesterday inviting him to ring and bookies covid jab. He had to go to stevenage, a0 miles away. We cant drive that far. He told them the centre is in hemel hempstead, ten miles away. He was told he couldnt go there. There is the specific point about expecting an 88 year old to be able to drive a0 miles. What about those people who get an appointment like that, cant make it for practical reasons, where do they go then, what happens to them on the list . 50 go then, what happens to them on the list . ,. , go then, what happens to them on the list . ,. ,. ,. , go then, what happens to them on the list . ,. ,. ,. , list .

What we l have got in the letter is, there are the Vaccination Centres but you can also get the Vaccination Centres but you can also get your vaccines through your local general practice led vaccination service. So someone will be in vaccination service. So someone will be in touch vaccination service. So someone will be in touch with you soon. We are trying be in touch with you soon. We are trying to be in touch with you soon. We are trying to make sure the whole country trying to make sure the whole country is trying to make sure the whole country is ready to give vaccine and i can country is ready to give vaccine and i can completely understand that. If you want i can completely understand that. If you want to, you can wait. Your general you want to, you can wait.

So we have got teams led by our general practice have got teams led by our general Practice Teams, they are going into care homes Practice Teams, they are going into care homes to offer the vaccination. We have care homes to offer the vaccination. We have said is that care home staff can also we have said is that care home staff can also go we have said is that care home staff can also go to their hospital hub if they want can also go to their hospital hub if they want to do, so that is our hospital they want to do, so that is our hospital hubs that have been set up as well, hospital hubs that have been set up as well, making sure there are lots of options as well, making sure there are lots of options for people to get vaccinated.

Quarterto its a very busy morning this morning. Quarter to nine and kat is looking at the sport. A rarity, Manchester United top of the premier league . I know. It used to be something we saw season in, season out. The last time they were top of the premier league at this time of the season, they went on to win the title. Lets not get ahead of themselves. Thats where ourselves. As ole Gunnar Solskjaer says, no one remembers the january league table. Good morning. Manchester united are top of the premier league after beating burnley1 0 at turf moor. They leapfrog liverpool thanks to this volley from paul pogba at turf moor. Before last nights games players were reminded of the leagues coronavirus protocols, and to avoid handshakes and hugs when celebrating, but that message hasnt got through just yet. Elsewhere, everton beat wolves and bottom side Sheffield United won their First League Game of the season. Billy sharpes penalty enough for a 1 0 win over newcastle, cue more celebrations. On the subject of Covid Protocols in football, the Health Secretary matt hancock has spoken to us here on breakfast in the last hour. He says players need to stick to the rules. They have special arrangements to ensure they have special arrangements to ensure that the players are safe and have a ensure that the players are safe and have a testing regime, for instance. But i have a testing regime, for instance. But i do have a testing regime, for instance. But i do think its important that everybody respects not just the letter everybody respects not just the letter but the spirit of the law. It is letter but the spirit of the law. It is actually letter but the spirit of the law. It is actually the spirit of the law thatis that is important. Pressure growing on football around that is important. Pressure growing on football around coronavirus on football around coronavirus protocols. And before i go, lets have a look at a brilliant goal from the scottish premiership. This is Dundee UnitedsLawrence Shankland having a go from a very, very long way out 53 yards, were told. It was a goal that rescued his side a point against stjohnstone.

No one in history has won both an olympic gold medal and a best actress oscar, but 13 year old lilly aspell hopes to be the person to change all that. Shes already secured podium finishes at a number of horse riding shows, and can now be seen playing the young wonder woman in the latest instalment of the hollywood blockbuster. Our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson caught up with her. Wonder woman is 13 years old, was born in scotland and lives in north yorkshire. Ive seen this contest. The most seasoned warriors, diana. I can do it. Wonder woman 198a starts with a ten minute action sequence featuring wonder woman as a young girl, played by lilly aspell. The way she landed the role is like something from a film. Her big break came in a toy shop during a day out in london with her mum. I was literallyjust, i think, dancing around like in a hat and sunglasses or something. And this guyjust walked up to me and he said, you really look like the person im casting for. And, you know, id love if you could come in, come and audition. And my mum was like, shes never acted before. One audition later and the part was hers. The time will come, diana. Lilly briefly appeared in flashbacks in the first wonder woman film, but this time has a whole sequence, taking part in the amazonian games. Training took six months and then, erm, we were like, when is this going to start filming . During all that training, what kind of things were you learning . Bow and arrow, and, you know, horse training as well. Kind ofjust getting my cos i was already quite fit and active, but kind ofjust muscle as well, trying to build muscle to create the amazon she is. Lilly did all her own stunts and particularly enjoyed those done on horseback. Shes an equestrian, both her mum and dad were jockeys and her uncle, leighton aspell, won back to back grand nationals. My mum went to the racetrack and won two weeks after having me. I got my first pony when i was two, i think. Initially, the kind of acting was to fund the showjumping because its a very expensive sport. Id really like to make this a career, because id love to be, you know, a professional actress, really, and id love to, you know, win oscars and win baftas and go to the olympics. So, yeah, i would love to do them both. That is quite an ambition, to win an oscar and perhaps an olympic gold medal. How possible would that be . Yes. Well, hopefully anything is possible. So, just hard work and dreams, i guess. But for those who grew up in the 70s, wonder woman will always be lynda carter. Now shes played by gal gadot. Its fair to say lilly is a fan. She is literally the best human on earth. And, you know, shes so kind and just would do anything for anybody. We used to go to the beach all the time, because obviously were in the same hotel. And as well as hanging out with a listers playing the young wonder woman comes with other perks. You have your own action figure . Yes, i do. Yes im very proud of that, really. And you come with a free horse . Yes, i know, right . yeah. Im the only person in wonder woman that comes with a horse. Have they given you one . Do you have one in your bedroom . Yes, i do, i have it right next to it 0h, go on, get it up so. Yeah that is pretty cool. It only arrived a few days ago. So, yeah, were. Very lucky, to be honest. I like the fact youve kept it in the box. You obviously know its worth more if you never open it. Thats what happened with the old star wars figures. I think we might keep it in the box. If lilly ever does win at the oscars on the olympics, it mightjust be worth a bob or two. Colin paterson, bbc news. I love her ambition. The oscars, win a few oscars, baftas, go to the limpets. A few oscars, baftas, go to the lim ets. � a few oscars, baftas, go to the limets. � ,. ,. ,. , limpets. Big plans for a 13yearold. And you can see lilly in wonder woman 198a which is available to stream at home from today. That is my day sorted. This time yesterday we talked about morrisons and sainsburys confirming they will were going to strengthen the guidance on Wearing Masks in store. So many people have been in touch . Yes, absolutely. We had an extraordinary response to this yesterday. Good morning. Obviously an issue that means a lot to workers and shoppers alike. Lots of the big retailers put out statements throughout the day, reminding customers of the rules and saying they would be getting tougher on this. Tesco, asda, waitrose and marks and spencer have all followed morrisons and said they will deny entry to shoppers who refuse to wear face masks without a medical exemption. They said the vast majority of customers are generally following the rules but clearly not everybody. We asked all the major supermarkets about the abuse their staff have faced for enforcing coronavirus regulations. Iceland told us that since last march they have recorded 650 instances of verbal abuse and 30 physical assaults on staff. And take a look at this footage from last year which coop food sent to us. Why are you touching me for . Why are you touching me . Get out now why are you touching me for . Get out right now this customer got really aggressive after asking staff to remove their masks, even grabbing this workers. Really upsetting for staff. He was charged and then pleaded guilty to common assault in november. It shows what some staff are facing. We also spoke with helen, who works for one of the big supermarkets in the north east and has been finding it tough working on the frontline of this and enforcing the rules. I know for me, personally, when i ask customers to keep the two metre distance, i was shouted at, i was sort of told that, oh, well, what are you talking about . As if there was nothing going on, when in fact i was actually quite concerned about my own health and that of my family. I think its incredibly difficult to police and i think its putting an awful lot of pressure on staff who are earning minimum wage or very little more than that to be put actually on the front line yet again of dealing with disgruntled customers who just might not want to wear a mask, or might not agree with wearing a mask, who might not see the point in keeping distance from one another. And i think theres also the issue of the fact that, while people might adhere at first, compliance gradually decreases sort of over the days and weeks afterwards and theres very little that we can do about that. You might notice if you flick through the papers this morning, morrisons have taken out a full page spread asking people to be kind to their staff. Things are getting tougher away from supermarkets. And now the high street bank hsbc has warned that those who dont comply with rules could see their accounts closed. Thank you for your emails today just to let you know, a couple of them. We had a shift worker at a petrol station get in touch. She was accosted by a customer, really aggressive, late last night after asking them to wear a mask. She said she was really relieved another customer stepped in to support her. And sylvia got in touch this morning. She told us about, well the words i cant repeat on air, that somebody came at her with because she asked them to wear a mask in a queuein she asked them to wear a mask in a queue in the post office. They then followed her, shouting out the car window. Hopefully tension will be reduced in stores. We have also heard from people exempt from Wearing Masks who faced aggression from other customers for not wearing them. Hopefully the rules are clearer now so people inside are complying with the rules. Thank you.

Nearly half of intensive care staff in england could be experiencing symptoms such as post Traumatic Stress disorder after treating patients during the first wave of coronavirus, a new study suggests. Further lockdown restrictions are being considered in scotland. Nicola sturgeon will outline any tightening of the rules later today. In england, Health Secretary matt hancock said the government might consider introducing tougher restrictions. It is possible then to make further restrictions but what i would say is that the most important thing is the compliance with the existing measures, that is the thing that is going to make the difference. Do you think lockdown restrictions are working where you are
