From 28 June. We will opt to maintain restrictions for a further three weeks from 28 June and use that time to vaccinate with both doses as many more people as possible.

And ever wondered how Water Shrews can breath underwater . Scientists uncover the genetic secrets of the worlds smallest diving mammals. Good Afternoon And Welcome to Bbc News. An independent report into the unsolved killing of a private investigator, Daniel Morgan, over 30 years ago has concluded that the metropolitan police� s failings in the case amounted to A Form Of Institutional Corruption. Daniel morgan, who was 38, was found dead in a Pub Car Park in South London in 1987, with an axe in his head. The panel has spent eight years investigating corruption claims linked to the metropolitan polices handling of the case. The report said the met� s first objective was to protect itself for failing to acknowledge its many failings. His family said they welcomed the recognition that they 7 and the public at large 7 had been failed over the decades by A Culture Of Corruption and cover up in the met police. Sanchia berg reports. Alistair morgan has been waiting for the day for 3h years, ever since his Brother Daniel was brutally murdered. How are you feeling . Apprehensive. Hopeful. Anxious. All of those. A really big day for you . Yes. I have been waiting a long time for this. The nine Oclock News from the bbc. It is britains most investigated unsolved murder. The body of 37 year old Daniel Morgan was found in sydenham in South East London. He had worked as a specialist in Debt Collection for an investigation company. He was found axed to death in the Pub Car Park. Fabricating a spray cans must investigate that unsolved murder. The independent panel found when it came to this case, the metropolitan police was guilty of institutional corruption. It said that could mean either a corrupt action or the failure to act, turning a blind eye. It could be for someone� s personal benefit or to protect the organisation. We believe that concealing or denying failings for the sake of an organisations public image is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit. This constitutes A Form Of Institutional Corruption. The Home Secretary previously said she would delay the report and might need to blank parts out. But today it was published in full. The report itself is deeply alarming and finds examples of corrupt behaviour, not limited to the first investigation. The metropolitan police made a litany of mistakes and this irreparably damaged the chances of successful prosecution of the murder of Daniel Morgan. The panel hope the report will bring real change, decades Daniel Morgans death. After the death of Daniel Morgan. The Prime Minister says the delay to Lifting Covid restrictions in england would allow more people to get vaccinated. The head of Nhs England says everyone in england aged over 18 should be able to book their first vaccine by The End of the week. Our Health Correspondent Catherine burns looks now at what needs to be achieved in the next few weeks to ensure the final stage of unlocking can go ahead. If we are in a race between the vaccine and the virus, its definitely more of a marathon than a sprint. But the government thinks this delay in easing restrictions will deal with a major hurdle in our way. One can never predict the future with perfect confidence, but insofar as we can be confident about anything in this complex world, we can be confident that the increased level of vaccination we will have by the 19th Ofjuly should allow us to further relax restrictions. Right now, almost 80 of adults have had Theirfirst Dose and coming up to 60 have had both. The plan is to get those numbers up before we fully open up. The target is for all over 18s to be offered their first dose and two thirds of adults double vaccinated by 19th july. 23 and 2a year olds are now invited for vaccines and the nhs has announced that all over 18s can start booking theirs by The End of the week. Case numbers are increasing at the same time, were averaging about 8000 new infections a day, but we are not going back into deeper lockdown in england. It is a pause along the road map, thanks to vaccines. In the past, the lockdown simply pushed cases into the future, people were not infected but still vulnerable. This is different. Now we are giving ourselves time to get people immune so those people will not get sick when the virus started to spread about. Earlier in this pandemic, there was a clear link. More cases led to more hospitalisations and more deaths. Vaccines have not entirely broken that link but they have weakened it, so now if you are double jabbed you only have a low chance of needing Hospital Care for covid. The message looking ahead is clear not to expect coronavirus to be gone byjuly the 19th, but the hope is that enough people have immunity to push it to a level we can live with. Catherine burns, Bbc News. The government has released the latest coronavirus figures for the uk. The data shows that a further ten people have died within 28 days of Testing Positive for covid 19. As of 9am on tuesday there were another 7,673 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the uk. The total number of deaths now stands at 127,917. Our Health Correspondent Catherine burns is here.

When looking at coronavirus figures there are three things mass. When looking at coronavirus figures there are three things we l figures there are three things we need to think about. Cases, people in hospitals, and baths. There are more than 7600 new cases, but where does that put that in comparison to last week . Pretty fast. If you compare it to two weeks ago, its about 2000 more. You can see there is an increase. Lets go even further back. The worst date for cases so far this year was the 11th of january. There were more than 76,000 cases. So yes, there is an increase, but we are still ten times less and we were at the first time this year. And we move onto hospitals. The most recent data, there is 1100 people in hospital. That is up about a fifth and the week before. Injanuary that is up about a fifth and the week before. In january we that is up about a fifth and the week before. Injanuary we are registering 15,000 people a day and about 40,000 people. So the numbers are low but its a very definite increase. Right now, what they will be watching because hospitals always lag behind cases is to see what has happened. Worst Case Scenario is whats happening in the past. The numbers will double and stable. There is to be a reason to think that will not happen because if you had two doses of vaccine you have but at least a 90 reduction in your chance of needing to to hospital. So again, we hear a lot about the link between getting sick and hospitalisations. The hope is that their vaccines have at least weekend if not for the broken back and that final number we look at our deaths. Right now, there is no increase in deaths. That could be because there is a lag in between people getting sick and im dying. In reality we probably will see more deaths but we dont know how many more. That is what they would have to keep a close Eye On in the weeks to come. find what they would have to keep a close Eye On in the weeks to come. And you mentioned vaccinations.

Yes, they have l moved to 23 and 24yearolds but moved to 23 and 24 year olds but they said by The End of this week all adults all of 18 year olds will be able to start looking back. That does not mean they will immediately happen because the way this works is that they give out the Vaccine Slots as soon as they get the actual vaccines himself it would be spread out over time between now and the 19th Ofjuly but this is a real positive step in the right Direction. Positive step in the right Direction. Thank you. The metropolitan Direction. Thank you. The metropolitan police Direction. Thank you. The metropolitan Police Commissioner Direction. Thank you. The metropolitan Police Commissioner has apologised for feelings and to daniel marking case saying it is a matter of great metric regret that No One has been brought to justice and they have compounded the pain suffered by daniels family. Our Home Editor has been speaking to assistant Commissioner Nick as grave of the metropolitan police and he said the forest sincerely apologises to the family but he does not believe the next police is corrupt. My believe the next police is corrupt. My sense of institutional corruption is its a term that has not yet been used until now. We need to understand what that means. To anyone out there watching this, particularly londoners, my sense of the metropolitan Police Service is that every single day its Men And Women Go Out and do the best they cant provide service to londoners in terms of emergency response, trauma investigation, the visible patrol, engagement, and i dont see that of a corrupt service.

The issue here is we clearly have not got the Balance Right and clearly we have made mistakes. No one is pretending we have not but the intention has always been to support this inquiry and balancing the need to protect things like identities and things like the identity of Undercover Offices and things that covert technology with the requirement makes it a has the fullest information it can to make its judgements and we try to get that Balance Right all the way through The Process.

I regret if i were doing the fat has not been balanced correctly and if the panel feels we have not taken the right approach.

I think the Inquiry Commission by the Home Secretary to accuse the metropolitan police of institutional corruption is about as serious a finding that you could possibly imagine. The reason for thatis possibly imagine. The reason for that is that legitimacy is the vital ingredient for the british system of policing by consent. Todays report i think represents a major crisis for the metropolitan in general and a particular crisis for its leader then proceeded back. In simple terms, the forest is accused of putting its application ahead of the search for truth. Dame cressida is accused of obstructing the pinos work, causing delays which added further unnecessary distress to the family of a murder victim. The commissioner has made it clear she is not resigning, the Prime Minister has said she has his backing, and Scotland Yard is as you have been hearing denying that its not hampered inquiry and did what it could it says to provide documentation. But unlike other institutional candles that we have seen that you will remember, this is not about hysterical or operational failings. This is a culture which exists so the panel says, todays date, and the evidence of which can be traced to the desk of the women who currently heads the forest. So this is my although this murder happened in the late 80s, a community potentially touches people in charge now . The community potentially touches people in charge now . In charge now . The report is absolutely in charge now . The report is absolutely clear, in charge now . The report is absolutely clear, that in charge now . The report is absolutely clear, that the i absolutely clear, that the institutional corruption that they have recognised as a consequence of their inquiries into the murder, Daniel Morgan murder, exists to this day and the evidence for that is that they say that documents that were needed for them to do that inquiry in short order, they were either not told about or only given to them, some vcr. It was one key document that only came to them in december of last year. And they say Thatis December of last year. And they say that is far, far too late and illustrative of the hurdles that were put in place by the metropolitan police. The police themselves as you have just heard of pushing back on that. They say they did whatever they could and they did their best, its difficult when youre having to deal with Computer Systems and so on which are, you cantjust have anybody going in there and rooting about, i think this is a crisis because it goes to something cultural. If you remember, it was that Macpherson Inquiry in 1999 that accused the metropolitan police of institutional racism. I think that this charge of institutional corruption is on the same level. It will be interesting to see in the next day or two how the Home Secretary and in the other senior politicians including the prime Minister Respond when theyve had a chance that digest its findings.

Really devastating points that it still exists to this day. This week on Bbc News, were reporting from across the uk to find out what you think about life during and after the pandemic. Well be hearing from residents of all these locations throughout the week. Yesterday we visited blackpool� s promenade, and tomorrow well be in lincoln, finding out the Impact Covid has had on businesses and communities. The City Of London has survived Fire And Plague in its centuries long history, but the Coronavirus Pandemic has emptied its streets of office workers, shoppers and tourists, leading some to question whether the square mile will ever return to the way it was before covid. Our Business Presenter Ben Thompson is spending the day there. Let me tell you, Rush Hour in the City Of London does not normally look like this. It is very quiet a few months after this pandemic began because so many people are still not back at work. We are here right by the Bank Of England. The financial heart of the capital and thousands of people who would normally be working in the offices around here are not back at work. And all sorts of businesses that poses a problem. Businesses Big And Small, whether it is that landlords of the office blocks to the coffee shops, bars, james, he addresses, and dry cleaners. All of that proves to be a problem if there are not workers here In The City. A little earlier, i spoke to one Property Developer and they said all of their clients are coming to them to talk about reassessing how much of the space they need and what that will look like in future. Based on how much and where we will work. fiur and where we will work. Our portfolio and where we will work. Our Portfolio Offices and where we will work. Our Portfolio Offices in and where we will work. Oi Portfolio Offices In London is of and where we will work. Iii. , Portfolio Offices In London is of a 6 Million square feet and at the moment thats about a quarter full. But our customers are telling us that they want to get back in and intended to get back into about two thirds of the occupancy from june the 21st. Thats obviously been put back now, but, you know, theyre telling us they want to get back in and use spaces to help drive their business forward. Have you heard there, lots of readjustment, lots of reassessment of what space they will need and how many workers will come back and how many workers will come back and how many days a week they will be there. As i said, Business Is Big And Small will feel the effects of that. Not just that annoyed large organisations but all the smaller ones to including famous london cabbies. They say they had very little Business In the square mile for more than a year now. They find it very difficult to apply their trade. They have to go further out of the city to get business. 0ne Cab Driver told me hejust comes in and get the coffee in the paper and helping he might pick up a couple of pairs. Trying to decide what happens next is a perilous business. Look down moorgate, its one of the busiest streets normally, a very, very busy street. Theres No One on the pavement, theres No One driving. Its nothing, its a ghost town. By taking people from the station, or their point of getting into london into their offices, to meetings, to lunches, to coffees whatever it is, the Business Community are a big part of our business, and they make up a lot of it. And theyre not here. The citys no point in being here for a cab driver. So many implications for alsop all sorts of businesses. He runs a chain of barbers here In The City and around and face to see you. Tell me how to explain this last 18 months because looking around here its so quiet. It is supposed to be Rush Hour and you rely on a lot of people popping in . The Rush Hour and you rely on a lot of people popping in . People popping in . The last 18 months we people popping in .

Naturally people are not In The City as they used to be in our revenues around 30 of what they would normally be but our fixed costs are high one could say and landlords tend to interpret the rules differently and if they could be nicer to Small Business Owners that would be fantastic.

We are given conditions that we can go out and do the best that we could and the protection we really need is the extension of the Furlough Scheme to make sure our staff know they can go back and provide for their families alongside the rates that are going to be reintroduced later on this year and last but not least making sure landlords that have the ability to take Small Business Owners to court in the next part of the unit to be a bit more lenient and that it put legislation back to protect us. Some would say if your business has changed, if people arent here, perhaps people will come to the Office Qa days a week, if youre job to adapt their business and think about what it and being in the City Centre as you go to local High Street and go to where your customers are you need to change what you do.

I think as Business Owners you have to what you do. I think as Business Owners you have to accept what you do. I think as Business Owners you have to accept the l what you do. I think as Business I owners you have to accept the fact that no two days are the same and we have been trading here for over 30 years barbers but we have to rethink about how we will do things the future because we might be seeing 60, 70 at best so what were doing now is looking at our Hair Cut Core Business And Adapting to our here Systems Business which essentially is going to be looking after affluent young males who are suffering from male Pattern Baldness so what we will be doing is offering them a system that will look after their head of hair and give them the confidence that they might be suffering from by not having as much air as they would like to do. So we are making sure all our customers was that are suffering from baldness and those that have haircuts to come into the day to day one could say and that later evenings and weekends will be opening up for a whole new product range.

We are set in front of the Bank Of England which has been here for god knows how long and we have got Fantastic Transport links as well.

I almost want to say enjoy it but its a very mixed picture. Scotland is likely to maintain Coronavirus Restrictions for a further three weeks from june 28, first minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced when the country was previously expected to move into level zero. She added that in the � race to get more people vaccinated, scotland needs more time to double vaccinate people to � get ahead and stay ahead of the virus. We are hopeful that vaccination is changing the game in our fight against this virus, perhaps in a very fundamental way. But the emerging evidence still does need close analysis. And more fundamentally, and perhaps this is the most fundamental point of all today, we do need time to get more people vaccinated with both doses. In the race between the virus and the vaccines which we have often spoken about, we are increasingly confident that the vaccines will win that race. But we must not allow the virus to get too far ahead of it. The Vaccination Programme is going exceptionally well, it is being rolled outjust as quickly as supplies allow. But there is a significant proportion of the population that is not yet fully vaccinated with two doses. To be blunt, that remains our biggest vulnerability at this stage, and it is quite a significant vulnerability when cases are rising at the pace they are. So we need to buy ourselves sufficient time for the vaccination to get ahead and to stay ahead of the virus, and that is the reason for caution to be exercised at this juncture. 0ur Scotland Correspondent Lorna Gordon is in glasgow.

Scotland had originally been heading towards whats not here as a level zero in the past Year System onjune the 28th. That now will not happen until july. As with claire in Nicola Sturgeons comments its to give time for the double dosing of the Vaccine Programme to push forward and to take effect. Thats because cases here like elsewhere are rising. Theyve risen by more than a 15 day i speak are five times higher than in early may. They want to get as many people as possible vaccinated twice before the Use Lockdown any further. There has been response from businesses and they had said for the delay will be frustrating and painful for firms and scotlands pups have warned of another lost summer and the Opposition Parties have accused the government of sending out mixed messages and the formal decision has to be taken at this time next week.

The former Bbc Director general, Lord Hall, has told mps he was wrong to give Martin Bashir a Second Chance after learning details of how he secured his interview with Princess Diana in 1995. Lord hall said he regretted referring to Mr Bashir in an internal report as honest and honourable, and said he wouldnt have been rehired in 2016 if bbc bosses knew then what they know now. Tim muffett reports. The bbc has faced many questions surrounding Martin Bashir, from the deceptive methods he used to secure his interview with diana, princess of wales, to the decision to re employ him in 2016. This was a chance for mps to grill the current Director General, tim davie, as well as former bbc Bosses Lord Birt and Lord Hall. In a 1996 enquiry, Lord Hall had described bashir as an honest and honourable man. Let me start by saying, if i might, to acknowledge how hard this has been, the Lord Dyson investigation, for the royal family, for the two princes, and i am sorry for the hurt caused. But at core, here, i trusted a journalist, i gave him a Second Chance. We, the team, gave him a Second Chance, and the trust was abused and misplaced. Let me say i dont think the words, honest and honourable, 25 years on, look appropriate at all. Yesterday, the bbc published its enquiry into the decision to rehire Martin Bashir as religious Affairs Correspondent in 2016. It found no evidence to suggest he was reemployed in order to cover up the circumstances surrounding his diana interview, but it did raise concerns around the Fairness And Transparency of his reappointment and revealed some bbc executives were told in 2016 that bashir had faked documents in 1995 but considered the allegations spent. It is not for me to second guess directors or people who were running large departments. Again, i go back, you trust them to make thejudgments, to do all the soundings out that need to be done. It was the current Director General, tim davie, who commissioned the Dyson Report into the events surrounding the 1995 panorama interview. I can only be guided by putting someone in charge of a review who asked them fully for all the information they knew. It was completely unhindered by me to go after that. This is 25 years after the 96 affair. Now, then, the former Director General of the bbc, Lord Hall. Speaking earlier today to good morning britain, Princess Dianas brother Earl Spencer gave his reaction to the bbc� s inquiry into the rehiring of Martin Bashir. It is incredible, literally it is unbelievable. Id say what is so staggering about the bbc in this whole matter is how they keep ploughing on in, i think, a very self destructive way. More than 25 years after Martin Bashir� s interview with diana, princess of wales, the questions for the bbc keep coming. Tim muffett, Bbc News. Im Nowjoined Byjulian knight mp, chair of the digital, culture, media and Sport Committee who questioned former bbc executives following the publication of the macquarrie report. Good afternoon to you, thanks so much forjoining us. So you spoke to bbc Executives Past And Present today what did you make of the answers you got . Did you gain a satisfactory picture of what happened to . Satisfactory picture of what hauenedto . ,. ,. , happened to . Know, to be honest with ou, its happened to . Know, to be honest with you. Its like happened to . Know, to be honest with you. Its like trying happened to . Know, to be honest with you, its like trying to happened to . Know, to be honest with you, its like trying to catch happened to . Know, to be honest with you, its like trying to catch fog, you, its like trying to catch fog, trying to decide whats actually happened in this case. 0bviously theres issues over the length of time since the original Bashir Report with Princess Diana, but we were very interested to get to the bottom of the 2016 rehiring, because Thatis Bottom of the 2016 rehiring, because that is something very relevant today that was done, if you like, in modern bbc times. And we found it quite majorfailings in that respect. Ill be honest, im afraid Lord Hall, although he was clearly contrite, came across as very well in many respects at the same time, it really did Stab Credulity to a raging point over the rehiring of Martin Bashir. It looks to us as though the report that the bbc has commissioned, the internal report revealed yesterday is, some say, looks like a strained credulity. Those are very strong criticisms. What is it specifically about the rehiring that has troubled you so . There are many aspects. But lets just examine a few which i posed to Lord Hall, who wasnt able to give any satisfactory answer. And that is the fact that 18 candidates were attracted to the post externally, of which only one went into an interview stage, Martin Bashir. When it came to internal candidates, the three who werent interviewed initially were all rejected as unsuitable. However, the bbc then placed one of those people deemed unsuitable into the final two with Martin Bashir. So Mr Bashir, who had beenin Martin Bashir. So Mr Bashir, who had been in Coffee Meetings with senior executives at the bbc during this process before and during the Rehiring Process effectively all he had to do was to meet one person for thejob who had been deemed unsuitable. That is neglectful in many respects, but with the whole stench, if you like, of the previous actions of Mr Bashir at the bbc, i have to say its deeply suspicious and something which weve not received satisfactory answers for. I suppose that the executives were making the case that they accepted that Errors Ofjudgment happened but their case was that these errors of judgment but their case was that these Errors Ofjudgment were more glaring now because of the benefit of hindsight secular the one we focus on at the start was the idea of the. Bell not much hindsight there, it was only a few years ago. I just want to make mention of the Dyson Report which laid things out much more clearly and greater depth than was known about in 2016. Known about in 2016. Now, to be honest with known about in 2016. Now, to be honest with you, known about in 2016. Now, to be honest with you, i known about in 2016. Now, to be honest with you, i really known about in 2016. Now, to be honest with you, i really dont i known about in 2016. Now, to be| honest with you, i really dont see that. Because there are many aspects of the Dyson Report cosmic findings, which were known to the bbc and were examined in the 1996 investigation. They knew that Mr Bashir had lied, and they knew that effectively previously there had been mocking of documents on a previous occasion. They knew of this. And Lord Hall in his recommendations to Lord Bert, instead of calling for the Sacking Or Suspension of Mr Bashir, he actually called for the sacking of the Whistle Blower. 0ne actually called for the sacking of the Whistle Blower. One moment in the Whistle Blower. One moment in the meeting we had today was that Lord Bert refused to apologise to the Whistle Blower who basically lost their career because they tried to do the right thing. Iiiiihat lost their career because they tried to do the right thing. To do the right thing. What do you think should to do the right thing. What do you think should happen to do the right thing. What do you think should happen now . To do the right thing. What do you think should happen now . To to do the right thing. What do you think should happen now . To be l think should happen now . To be honest with think should happen now . To be honest with you, think should happen now . To be honest with you, i think should happen now . To be honest with you, i think think should happen now . To be honest with you, i think that think should happen now . To be honest with you, i think that we | honest with you, i think that we still need to find more details out in terms of the Rehiring Process. I think the bbc should get someone from outside in on this process. They also, i think, should conduct a forensic review of Mr Bashir� s journalism at the bbc. Because its quite clear to us that Lord Dysons terms were very narrow indeed when it came to Mr Bashir� s journalism. And there are other instances that have been called into question. Therefore, i think it would be right of the bbc to either ask Lord Dyson to look again at those particular areas, orfrankly to look again at those particular areas, or frankly to go to look again at those particular areas, orfrankly to go back to look again at those particular areas, or frankly to go back to the Drawing Board when it comes to this inquiry into the rehiring and find someone who isnt in house to conduct it.

Borisjohnson has condemned footage of a bbcjournalist being harassed and chased by anti lockdown protesters In London. A video shared widely on Social Media showed demonstrators shouting abuse in the face of newsnight political editor Nicholas Watt near Downing Street on monday. The Prime Minister said it was in his words disgraceful to see the hounding of Mr Watt for doing hisjob, and added, the media must be able to report the facts without fear or favour. Lets get more on this from our political correspondent chris mason. We should outline at the beginning we are not showing this footage. But it is distressing when one sees what happened to Nicholas Watt in it. It is. Nick was out and about on Whitehall Yesterday Evening to talk to some of of these anti lockdown protesters who had gathered after the Prime Minister. There are several videos doing the rounds on Social Media of Nick Being harassed and followed, and physically intimidated. In The End, he was able to make his way to Downing Street as a westminster reporter, he has a pass to be able to access Downing Street which is behind protected gates. And from there, he was able to seek sanctuary. Today there has been a response from the Prime Minister and a Couple Cabinet ministers. The Prime Minister saying on twitter that it was disgraceful to see the hounding of Nicholas Watt. Johnsons spokesperson early on said the premise or had seen the footage earlier on and it was deeply to disturbing. Violence and threats are never acceptable. The health secretary, pat hancock, describe the footage as appalling hancock, that Nicholas Watt was abused by a small mob. We must always be protective, this behaviour is completely unexceptional. Priti completely unexceptional. Priti patel used completely unexceptional. Priti patel used similar language to condemn the protesters and their harassment of Nicholas Watt. She also links a tweet to a call for evidence of the government has already posted into the work they are doing on the safety of journalists and the Extent And Nature of the threats they face. Weve got a response from resistance gb, one of the groups behind the video thats been put on the internet, and they say, the bbc is funded through fear, violence and intimidation. The bbc causally lies about the criminal and unconstitutional lockdowns illegally imposed by the government. Chris. Imposed by the government. Chris, Thank Ou imposed by the government. Chris, thank you very imposed by the government. Chris, thank you very much. Borisjohnson Boris Johnson announced borisjohnson announced the Decision Yesterday amid rising Covid Infection rates to allow more time for people to get vaccinated. Lets talk to doctor mike told slee a member of the sp i am. Good afternoon to you, mike. Explain to us the modelling behind the Decision Yesterday to extend lockdown. ~. �. , lockdown. What were doing is modelers is lockdown. What were doing is modelers is analysing lockdown. What were doing is modelers is analysing the lockdown. What were doing is| modelers is analysing the data lockdown. What were doing is modelers is analysing the data that comes in on cases, Hospital Admissions and deaths. Were creating admissions and deaths. Were creating a model that predicts what we expect to see in the coming weeks depending on how controls are relaxed. Now the challenge we have at the moment is there still quite a bit of uncertainty regarding how much more transmissible this Delta Variant is, and also how effective the vaccinations are notjust against infections, but also developing severe disease and being admitted to hospital. So what the models do then is put together a range of forecasts. Its very similar in a way to how climate scientists do weather forecasting, theyre projecting forward what they may see in the future. But we do is we look at a range of these scenarios to look at potentially the best and worst Case Scenarios to see where we might be expecting your relaxation. As time goes on, as we get more data, we get much more certain about where we expect to be, and can advise the government accordingly. I wondered if we could just bring in one of the slides that was shown yesterday. We did show this in our conversation with catherine burns, but the audience can see now the slide that showed there will be 15,000 cases a day by 21 june, according to the modelling. This is according to the modelling. This is a Scenario Youll be familiar with. What is puzzling is that we are not getting more stringent measures being introduced this week, its simply that were not having a relaxation of lockdown. Would one expect those cases to go on increasing as they are in that graph . Increasing as they are in that i Ra H . ,. , increasing as they are in that rah . ,. , ,. , graph .

Shortly in the short term, what we need are members we are not quite in the same situation we were backin quite in the same situation we were back in october. Back in october when cases were rising, epidemiologists like myself were talking about the need for a set of controls to be introduced sooner rather than later. Because we knew at that time that when cases were rising, it was only a matter of time before we saw a big wave of Hospital Admissions and deaths. This time around, we are in a slightly different position. We have very high levels of vaccinations in elderly and more vulnerable people. We know those vaccines are very good after a second dose. Theres still a level of uncertainty regarding how much we might expect Hospital Admissions to increase. This is why whats happening now is that controls have been paused, as in relaxations have been paused rather than more controls put back in place to give us a bit more time to try and analyse the link between cases rising and Hospital Admissions rising, and to get more doses of vaccinations out to those that really need it.

The citys muslim at least 2,000 police have been deployed in occupied eastjerusalem for a contentious march by israeli ultra nationalist groups. It is being allowed to pass through an area known as the arab market, but not through the most sensitive location, the citys muslim quarter. The controversial March Of The Flags has already been postponed twice, and is an immediate test for Prime Minister naftali benett� s coalition which took office on sunday. His public Security Minister says there is a democratic right to demonstrate, though his office spoke of the need to preserve the delicate thread of coexistence. But the palestinian Prime Minister called the March By Right Wing settlers provocative and warned of dangerous repercussions. Hamas and other palestinian factions have declared a day of rage. Tensions last month led to a deadly 11 Day Conflict between israel and hamas, most of them killed in gaza. The uk has agreed a free Trade Deal with australia its the first negotiated from scratch after brexit. Downing street said it meant british products such as cars and Scotch Whisky would be cheaper to sell in australia. But the Farming Sector in the uk has expressed concern about imports of meat, and potential compromises on food standards. 0ur Economics Correspondent Andrew walker reports. Britains first Trade Deal negotiated from scratch. Two countries and two farming systems. Agriculture has been the most sensitive area of the talks, but the Prime Minister sees the deal as an opportunity for a wide range of british exporters. For Northern Ireland, northern irish machine tools, this will be good news. It will be good news for british car manufacturers, it will be good news for british services, for british Financial Services and it will be good news for, i hope, for agricultural sector on both sides. 0ur Economies are stronger by these agreements. This is the most comprehensive and ambitious agreement that australia has concluded. The only one which comes into close connection with that is the arrangement we have with New Zealand under the close economic Relationship Arrangements we have there. But many british Livestock Farmers are nervous, they worry that different regulations could give their australian competitors an advantage that they will struggle against. I want to know the safeguards. I want to know, if we have a product coming into this country that is below our welfare standards, for instance, were not allowed to haul animals across a certain distance, the short crossing from newquay to france in live exports. What about other countries . Do they have these laws and welfares . But it is notjust about agriculture. What about other countries . But it is notjust about agriculture. By removing trade barriers, the deal may create opportunities for exporters. From the uk perspective, it appears that it will add 0. 2 to gdp. Which might not sound like much. But when Gdp Growth is around 2 to 3 per year, it adds up and is a significant increase to the economy of the uk but also in australia. There are some british farmers who do see the chance to sell more to australian consumers. People are used to spending quite i a bit of money on food in australia. Very, very high standards, fantastic quality of food in australia. I think there are opportunities. Im hoping we can sell a bit more. Yeah, i am excited to see what we can do there, work with australian customers. To have lots of wonderful English Cheese sold in australia. What is new about this agreement is that it does not start from What Britain already had by virtue of eu membership. The government is hoping for many more such deals to remove obstacles to trade, which could go some way to offsetting the new barriers to commerce with the eu. Andrew walker, Bbc News. Now, they are tiny warm blooded creatures which have long baffled scientists with their ability to dive and hunt in freezing water. Now, researchers from the University Of Liverpool have used Dna Samples to work out how the Water Shrew evolved to be so different from most other marine predators. Victoria gill reports. A Water Shrew� s ability to dive and hunt in freezing water appears to defy evolutionary logic. They only weigh about 15 grams, less than one aa battery, and their tiny bodies lose heat and burn energy quickly. For marine mammals like seals, bulky bodies packed with Oxygen Storing Muscle and insulated by layers of Fat Help them spend many minutes underwater. The researchers used dna to work out exactly how such a diminutive mammal evolved this unusual semi aquatic lifestyle. The scientists created a genetic Family Tree of 71 related insect eating mammal species, and they discovered that at five distinct points in their history, shrews and moles had evolved the ability to store much more oxygen in their muscles in a protein called myoglobin. We can actually use the genetic, the sequences to tell us about the lifestyle. Its just a sequence of one protein that we are just using that is really incredibly important for this lifestyle, that actually tells us something that we couldnt figure out having all these fossils. So now having this incredible set of genes from all these different species, and making a thorough analysis, we really could figure it out. Its the availability of food or the Insect Larvae that live in beds of rivers and streams that drove Water Shrews into the water. Their Record Dive time is 24 seconds and this research has revealed how these tiny predators bodies became engineered for this high speed aquatic hunting. Victoria gill, Bbc News. Next, its the Bbc News at 6pm with george alagiah. But first, its time for a look at the weather with ben rich. Hello there. Heat, humidity and thunderstorms feature in the forecast for some, if not all of us over the next 24 48 hours. The humidity really building across the south and the east of the uk, you can see the deep orange colours developing here. Lightershades developing here. Lighter shades further developing here. Lightershades further north with fresher air working its way in. But its where we have the Heat And Humidity that we have the Heat And Humidity that we start to develop showers and storms pushing up from the south through wednesday night, so through Tomorrow Night and on into thursday. But in the shorter term, today has been very cloudy across some northwestern parts of the uk with outbreaks of rain. We will continue to see Cloud And Rain across parts of scotland and Northern Ireland through tonight, the Odd Heavy Burst of rain as the Weather Front sinks its way in. Much of england and wales holding onto clear skies, though for some western coasts, well see a cloud, mist, Merck And Drizzle developing. Quite a mild and muqqy drizzle developing. Quite a mild and muggy night, temperatures staying in double digits for the vast majority. Into tomorrow, or where fronts stop bringing Rain Across Southern Scotland is that gets down into North England and west wales, the rain will turn Patch Year and wetter. Scott will see sunny spells, well be into the fresher ear here air here, 1 2 showers. Further east we will see further spells of sunshine and lighter winds, thats where the Heat And Humidity will be building. Temperatures heading upwards to 29 30 c across some parts of southeast england. And where we have that Heat And Humidity, thats where we expect some showers and thunderstorms to start to break out through wednesday night, drifting across the channel islands, up across the channel islands, up across eastern and central parts of england, they will be quite hit and miss, some places could see a lot of rain, others will fall between the showers and stay predominately dry, i suspect. Some of the showers may be getting into parts of east wells, as well, rumbling into parts on thursday. Furtherwest as well, rumbling into parts on thursday. Further west we are into the cooler, fresher air, spells of sunshine with temperatures 17 celsius for aberdeen and belfast, still some Humidity Holding on down towards the southeast corner. Across the southeast we could see further pulses of heavy, possibly Foundry Rain Drifting through on friday. But with higher pressure further west, well see more in the way of drier weather here. Saturday the Dryer Day of the beacon for the most, Heavy Rain likely to return for on sunday. Day of the weekend for most. Today at six a hard Hitting Report accuses the met of A Form Of Institutional Corruption over an unsolved murder case. Daniel morgan, a private investigator, was murdered in 1987. A panel has been looking at why No One has been brought to book in all this time. We believe that concealing or the denying failings for the sake of an organisations public image is dishonesty. This constitutes A Form Of Institutional Corruption. Morgan was killed outside this pub in South East London his family believe he was on the brink of exposing police wrongdoing.
