Yes, and there were some extensive comments. You heard the Duke Of york talking about the queen. He said the feeling was that they have lost grandfather of the nation. He said it was a terrible loss, but his father, before he died, had said in a Telephone Call to him that they had to remember that everyone was in the same boat, that occasionally we, the same boat, that occasionally we, the royals, are asked to show compassion and leadership. He made the comparison with the pandemic, talked about the fact that so many people have died, so many people have lost Loved Ones, and all are feeling a great sense of loss. The earl and Countess Of Wessex were there with their daughter, lady louise. The Earl Of Wessex talked about it being a shock, but all of them spoke about the extraordinary tributes that have been made and left to their father, and they said the memories have been so fantastic and it means so much to them that he meant so much to so many people. Sarah campbell, thank you very much. Shops, pubs, restaurants, hairdressers and gyms are among businesses making preparations to reopen with the easing of lockdown in england tomorrow. More than 400,000 nonessential shops are expected to open their doors, but only around a third of the countrys 37,000 pubs will be able to because most dont have the required outside space, with a similar problem facing many restaurants. Schools also return in scotland and wales, where restrictions about travelling across the border are also lifted and shops can reopen. In northern ireland, Nonessential Retail remains closed but can now operate click and collect services. Heres our Business Correspondent Katy austin. Getting a shop ready is a big job. Here in leamington spa, staff are back from furlough, sorting stock and cleaning. Excited, yeah. Its the third time now that were reopening again, so we just want to get back into it now. Lockdown i pushed this lingerie and swimwear chain to the brink. Theyve since ramped up their online operation and closed some stores for good, but they see monday as hugely important. Weve had lots of calls from customers, which tells us that obviously, lots of customers are wanting to come into shops, but we know that some will want to continue shopping from home for some time. And were yet to find out exactly how much of that mix is a permanent shift. Changing rooms will be open, carefully managed, and Bra Fittings will be done contact free. Our teams are using the fitting rooms opposite, so rather than actuallyjoining them in the fitting room, theyre doing exactly what they would normally do from further apart. People are being encouraged to shop alone and stay socially distanced. Bravissimo is confident of opening safely. Profitably . Not sure. The same goes for pubs, restaurants and cafes, who can only serve outside from tomorrow. Three of this chains sites will open, including this one at liverpools albert dock. Theyre fully booked, but its not worth opening nine others with smaller outdoor areas. By the time weve got in a team of chefs, someone to wash the pots, a front of House Team to make drinks and serve the food and a manager to run the place, we would actually be worse off than we would be by staying closed. So weve only been able to open terraces that have roughly 50 covers or more. Like outdoor hospitality, shops and hairdressers are expecting an initial surge in demand. Some will extend opening hours. How much the past year has changed customers habits permanently is the big unknown. Katy austin, bbc news. There are more questions this lunchtime about former conservative prime Minister David camerons lobbying activities after he left government. Its emerged that Mr Cameron met for a private drink with the health secretary, Matt Hancock and the financier lex greensill, for whom Mr Cameron was working. Our political correspondent Helen Catt is here. Helen, what more can you tell us . These details have come out in the Sunday Times that there was this meeting between the three men, Matt Hancock, the health secretary, Mr Cameron and the Business Man for whom he was working, lex greensill. They met for a drink in october 2019. This was at a time when Mr Greensill was trying to get the nhs to use an app he had devised to allow staff to get bits of their pay daily instead of waiting until payday. He had put the proposal to the Department Of Health a couple of months previously. Matt hancock had asked officials to look at it. They thought it was good in principle, we are told, and some nhs trusts did then go on to use it. An ally of Mr Hancock says he acted entirely appropriately. He told officials about business discussions. The Department Of Health says it was up to local nhs employers to decide how to local nhs employers to decide how to pay their staff. But this comes just days after the chancellor, rishi sunak, was facing questions about his engagement with David Cameron. He took the unusual step of Publishing Text messages he had sent to Mr Cameron after it emerged that the former Prime Minister had messaged his private phone when he was trying to get greensill access to a Government Backed Loan last year.

Mr Cameron Isnt being accused of breaking any rules with this meeting, but there are some unanswered questions. There are critics who say the rules themselves should be tougher, and of course, he has put some senior ministers in an awkward position this week.

As weve been hearing, in the last few Minutes Prince andrew the Duke Of york paid tribute to his father, recalling a conversation he had with him recently. Yes, its a terrible loss. My father said to me on the telephone a few months ago that we are all in the same boat and we must Always remember that. Same boat and we must Always rememberthat. But same boat and we must Always remember that. But occasionally, we, the Family, are asked to stand up and show compassion and leadership. And unfortunately with my fatherS Death, it has brought it home to me notjust our loss but also the loss that Everybody Else has felt for so many people who have, as it were, dyed and lost Loved Ones during the pandemic. And so we are all in the same boat. Slightly different circumstances because he didnt die from covid but were feeling great sense of loss. But at the same time, the tributes have been absolutely amazing that ive seen and the message is that im getting absolutely outstanding. And ijust want to say how grateful i am, we are, for these tributes. He was a remarkable man, i loved him as a father. He was so calm. If you had a problem, he would think about it. And thats the great thing that i was think about is that he was Always somebody that you could go to any would Always listen. So its a great loss. I think the way i would put it is we have lost almost the grandfather of the nation. And i feel very sorry and supportive of my mother, who is feeling it i think probably more than Everybody Else.

But we, the Family, the ones that are closer, are rallying round to make sure that we are there to support her and i know that there is a huge amount of support, notjust for her but for everybody, as we go through this enormous change. But thank you very much indeed for coming to see us this morning at our private chapel, where we have been able to as it were give our prayers and head on the next few days before the funeral. The Duke Of edinburghs youngest son, prince edward, and his wife sophie have also been speaking about the impact the dukeS Death has had on them. Its been a bit of a shock, however much one tries to prepare oneself for something like this, it is still a dreadful shock and were still trying to come to with that. And it is very, very sad. But i have to say that the extraordinary tributes and the memories that everybody has had been willing to share has been so fantastic. And itjust goes to show, he might have been ourfather, grandfather, father in law, but he meant so much to so many other people. And just being here this morning with everybody from Windsor Great Park and he was a ranger here for more years than i think any other ranger. And he meant so much to so many people here.

Well, rev Richard Coles recently lost his sister to coronavirus and his partner, david died in december 2019. He has just published a book � the madness of grief a memoir of love and loss. He told me how he has coped with grief. It was something that shook the world, so much that i did feel as though Id Kind of lost my place in my sense of self which is why describe it as being like madness. But i think that particular difficult. I mean, especially for somebody like the queen, whose presence and whose insurance plays such an important part in our sense of ourselves as a nation and as a people. And of course we all for her terribly, it will be a grievous loss. And our sincere condolences and our prayers, if we are praying types, go to her. And it reminds as i think of how important those narratives of continuity are, but our private individual ones and Family once too, they enable us to know who we are and give us our sense of our place.

I feel i really wanted to talk, i wanted to speak to those who are nearest and dearest to me, my Family, my closest friends. But sometimes strangers. I mean, i was very touched by people who Stop Ministry and gave me their condolences, sometimes awkwardly and sometimes with embarrassment because we are british and feel embarrassed about things that carry an emotional charge. But i think that is important, that sense that other people are acknowledging what has happened to you. Perhaps the world is acknowledging what happened to you too. You know, we used to be better at this. Our victorian forebears with all the elaborate paraphernalia of morning seemed a bit sentimental and fussy to us but they knew something that we have forgotten which is All Of Us, if youre lucky enough to share your life with someone who you love and you know they love you, the chances are 50 50 you are going to be a widow or a widower. And to All Of Us In The End it is terrible and so it is worth getting prepared for it. Grief is the price of love. What about funerals because they are so limited at the moment because of covid and we know that the Duke Of edinburghs is going to be limited in terms of numbers who can attend. How important are funerals in terms of coming to terms with grief and the death of a Loved One . I of coming to terms with grief and the death of a Loved One . The death of a Loved One .

And that i think is really important. For those of us who are christians or those who belong to one of the major faiths or traditions we do with ceremonies. It is something that will be around long after we go on and there is something about that thatis and there is something about that that is very proud. We see in the national ceremonies around the Family'>Royal Family, i suppose particularly the last thing i can think of is the death of the Queen Mother but there is something dignified and also objective about those rights that capture something important, it is allows us to feel the grief that we allows us to feel the grief that we all feel, to celebrate a life that was rich and shared with many. And to offer us the hope that beyond the Dark Horizon of death the possibilities of new life endure. The reverend Richard Coles there with his reflections on grief. India has reported a Record Number of coronavirus infections, after more than 150,000 people tested positive in a single day. The country is in the midst of a severe second wave of the virus our India Correspondent Yogita Lamaye sent this report. A hospital in a western city. These are covid patients and there are no doctors to look at them, says the man filming the video. In the worst affected city in india, people are being given oxygen outside a hospital because it is too full. Patients are struggling to get medical care as india is in the grips of a fierce second wave of covid. 73 year old mary was taken to six hospitals, none of which had critical care for her. She died on her way to the seventh. Her son anthony spoke to me from isolation. All these years she never needed to go to a hospital, and when she did i could not do anything for her. Ifailed her, he says. Field hospitals built last year to add to existing facilities are already full. This one is managed by dr kapale, who has been on the front line since the pandemic began. So what is different this time around . Right now i am seeing, when a single member is positive, the entire Family is positive. The Infection Rate has gone up. It is affecting young adults, which is quite surprising. Last year it took more than six weeks for daily cases to double to the number seen at the worst of the first wave. This year it has taken less than ten days for infections to grow twofold to the current high, which has already surpassed 2020s peak. The government says people not following Covid Protocols has led to the surge, but many experts believe that is not the main reason. It cannot explain the kind of surge increases that we are seeing currently in india, which clearly suggest that there is a great role for highly infectious variants of the virus, which are spreading faster. Some of them might even have the capacity to escape the immune system. To make matters worse, dozens of vaccination centres
