Interview with the bbc, the Countess Of Wessex speaks of the impact of the duke of Edinburghs Death on the royal family. It was an � oh, my god moment. So, i think theyll come and go. But you have to let them come and let them go. Wales Face Turkey at the European Championships tonight, where a win could put them on the verge of qualifying for the knockout stages. And i am live in lincoln throughout the day, talking to lots of local People as the bbc continues to look at the Covid Impact around the uk. Hello. The bbc understands that Covid Vaccinations are to be made compulsory for Care Home Staff in england who work with older People. Its expected that workers will have 16 weeks to get a jab, or face losing theirjobs. Ministers are said to be concerned about the low take up of the vaccine in some areas, and consultations will also start on bringing in the same rule for other Health And Care staff. The decision is expected to be announced in the next few days. James reynolds reports. Staff in adult Care Homes look after the People most likely to die from covid i9. More than 80 of workers have already been vaccinated. The rest now face a choice get the jab or give up theirjob. The government says the move to make vaccination compulsory will save lives. It says Theres Precedent for this. Surgeons, for example, are required to get the Hepatitis B vaccine. But for some in the social Care Sector, an ultimatum is simply too blunt. We absolutely agree we would like to see everybody vaccinated to keep our workforce safe. That includes any visitors coming into our services, any professionals coming into our services. We would like to see everybody vaccinated. But we cant compel them to do it. It will be really worrying that they have been singled out, Care Homes have been singled out, and our staff have been singled out for this as a compulsory move. I think it should be rethought. But one organisation welcomes the move. In february, the Barchester Care Group announced that it would make Covid Vaccination for its 17,000 staff compulsory. In the end, around 80 staff declined. They have now left theirjobs. Weve had to make a choice between the rights of our residents to remain safe and as safe as possible, which is a legal obligation we have as a provider, and the individual rights of Peoples-choice'>Peoples Choice to choose not to have the vaccine. Of course, that is a balance and we have taken advice on it and thought about it long and hard. In the end, there is an overarching responsibility for us as a provider for the safety of our residents. Care Home Staff are expected to be given 16 weeks to getjabbed. The government is also beginning a consultation into extending compulsory vaccinations to staff who work for the nhs. James reynolds, Bbc News. The Trade Secretary Liz truss said there is currently a consultation on the issue of compulsory vaccines for Care Home Staff, with a response due shortly. Its clearly very important that we protect vulnerable People in our Care Homes. Weve been looking, as a government, about what more we can do, in terms of making sure staff are vaccinated. Its obviously important that everybody gets vaccinated. Its key to dealing with covid but also enabling us to open up the economy. We are currently consulting on the issue of Care Home Staff and compulsory vaccination and we will be responding to that consultation very shortly. Liz truss there. Lets talk to our chief political correspondent adam fleming. This issue of compulsory vaccination is hugely controversial . Controversial within the Care Sector because some of the Care Companies and organisations which run Care Homes and some of the Trade Unions who represent Care Home employees say were dead in a better approach be encourage People to get the vaccine make it easierfor be encourage People to get the vaccine make it easier for People to get the vaccine than making it compulsory . They say or make it harder to recruit People to work in Care Homes, which is already pretty difficult for some Care Home providers. However, the government says look at the evidence provided by the scientists. Earlier this year, the scientists said you need to have about 80 of their staff in Care Homes for elderly People vaccinated at least with a first dose to protect residents of the Care Homes and that is why the government is pushing ahead with this Policy Of Making Vaccination is compulsory. We understand the decision has been made, the consultation has come to a close and it will be announced in the next couple of days, with Care Home workers given 16 weeks to get their vaccination. � ,. , workers given 16 weeks to get their vaccination workers given 16 weeks to get their vaccination.

This is also something that has been rumbling on since the start of the year. The experts on the joint committee of vaccinations and immunisations who advise the government on Immunisation Policy have been chewing over this issue for a little while. Do you give the Covid Vaccine to under 18 . Its been a bit exhilarated that decision now because the medical regulator, the mhra, approved the Pfizer Vaccine for 12 18 year old and so it looks like a decision will be made by the jcvi in the short term. The government has not received their advice yet, it is not in black and white, not on the desk of ministers yet and the experts will be weighing up yet and the experts will be weighing up do you need to give the vaccine to under 18 is when it is an incredibly unlikely they are going to get even a mild illness from covid . Although some do get very sick, versus the fact children still get pinged by the app and still have to isolate if someone in their School Or Nursery is diagnosed with covid and they lose a lot of schooling potentially as a result of them striking that balance is what them striking that balance is what the experts are doing at the moment. But the other day at the Downing Street news conference, announcing a delay to step four, Chris Whitty said there may be a case for Vaccinating Young Children who are at risk and there the balance of risk for there might be different. It may be thejcvi are advised there is no Mass Vaccination of everyone under 18 but that some under as still do get vaccinated. Under 18 but that some under as still do get vaccinated. Adam, Thank Ou Ve still do get vaccinated. Adam, thank you very much still do get vaccinated. Adam, thank you very much indeed. Joining me now is, Mike Padgham who is the chair at the independent Care Group which is representative body for independent Care Providers in york and north yorkshire. Thank you for being with us. What is your view On This . As we were saying, very controversial. Some think it is a good idea to protect Care Home residents and the onus on provider should be to protect those residents. 0thers Provider should be to protect those residents. Others think it is potentially a breach of the Human Rights of the staff who work in Care Homes. Where do you stand On This . Yes, i hear what yOu Say. My view is actually the vaccinations should be voluntary, i dont think they should be compulsory. I think given a bit more time, we could get those figures up to what the government once, some areas are better than another but i think we have a responsibility to residents and also staff. I think it will add to the already recruitment crisis. 120,000 vacancies in any one day and this will not help one bit. The vacancies in any one day and this will not help one bit. Will not help one bit. The latest fiuures will not help one bit. The latest figures we will not help one bit. The latest figures we have will not help one bit. The latest figures we have seen will not help one bit. The latest figures we have seen are will not help one bit. The latest figures we have seen are something like 50,000 Care Home Staff have chosen not to have the vaccine. That is a lot of People. It chosen not to have the vaccine. That is a lot of People. Is a lot of People. It is, it is. Could i just is a lot of People. It is, it is. Could ijust say, is a lot of People. It is, it is. Could ijust say, i is a lot of People. It is, it is. Could ijust say, i believe i is a lot of People. It is, it is. Could ijust say, i believe having the vaccination for all Care Home Staff is right and they should do it but i think we need a bit more time to make it voluntary or not compulsory. I am worried about legal action against providers and it seems a bit rich to me that if you worked hard in the pandemic over 15 months and you dont run the vaccine then yOu Say, well you probably have to lose yourjob. I can see challenges in the courts and we want to be fighting the battle of covid, not fighting the government On This. It is another distraction but i do think we have to get our staff vaccinated as soon as possible. People who support this idea say they reserve president for this. Doctors, surgeons are required to Have A Vaccination against Hepatitis B. Have a vaccination against Hepatitis B Have A Vaccination against Hepatitis B. There is a precedent for this. My b. There is a precedent for this. My understanding when i look at that, there is still an opt out for surgeons not to have that, i dont think they are forced to. The challenge here is if it is social care and Care Homes are singled out, it has to be applicable to the nhs shortly and i dont think that will be easy but im worried about the vacancies. It seems the government does not understand how social care works. We are on a Cliff Edge and this is a distraction. I do think we can get it there by persuasion. Where does it stop, then end of the wedge . Flu is also a killer, will we have to say to staff, a Flu Jab will be compulsory . I am worried about visitors coming in, they are not vaccinated, are we going to ask them all to be vaccinated . Its a difficult issue, between a rock and a hard place but i say vaccinations is critical but i think there is a better way to go about it. When yOu Sa ou better way to go about it. When yOu Say you can better way to go about it. When yOu Say you can get better way to go about it. When yOu Say you can get there better way to go about it. When yOu Say you can get there by better way to go about it.

Of reasons they are giving for not having the vaccination . Having the vaccination . They are varied. Cultural having the vaccination . They are varied. Cultural reasons, having the vaccination . They are l varied. Cultural reasons, religious reasons, many reasons given. There is still a Fear Factor that somehow it will do you harm. We need to do a bit more to target those areas. I managed to get a lot of our staff to haveit managed to get a lot of our staff to have it voluntarily after talking to them on a one to one. It takes time and patience but i think the government will have an extra distraction because i do not think it is straightforward to make it compulsory, icy problems on the horizon when we are all trying to fight the pandemic.

The uk is Shockingly Unprepared for the rising temperatures and extreme weather caused by Climate Change. Thats the warning to the government from environmental experts. The climate Change Committee is predicting more severe heatwaves and intense rainfall than previously thought. Kathryn brown is head of adaptation at the Uk Committee on Climate Change.

As yOu Say, the report coming out this morning is showing the uk. Out this morning is showing the uk is not even prepared for what we say, what we call inevitable Climate Change by 2050. So even if we reduce emissions to zero by 2050, there is still Climate Change that will happen and its happening now. What our report is saying, its three Years were, more than 500 experts contributed to this work, it shows across all sectors, there are gaps in adapting to those changes.

When yOu Say we are unprepared, who are yOu Say we are unprepared, who are you talking about exactly quest what the government would say a large part of the G7 Summit which we just had was devoted to tackling Climate Change.

As yOu Say, we have seen countries making increased pledges, the us, china and the uk has its Net Zero target. All of those pledges are assisting and trying to bring down the eventual global Temperature Increase towards what we call the paris agreement, less than a 2 Degrees Rise but even if we achieve all of that, there is another half of the equation which is adapting to the effect of Climate Change which we are already seeing and will see in the future. This report is aimed at Government Policies which need to be brought online to address that half of the equation which has been overlooked for the last five Years.

Things like making our buildings and our homes more resilient to extreme heat. Water scarcity and flooding, making sure businesses have the right information theY Need so that they can think about things like Supply Chain and diversifying their Supply Chain.

Incendiary balloons, sent by hamas from Gaza Into southern israel, causing multiple fires. Protesters chant. Earlier, thousands of far right israeli protesters paraded in eastjerusalem. Hamas had warned that if the event went ahead, it would be seen as a provocation. It comes just two days after former prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was ousted after 12 Years in power.

Consumers across the country have been able to get out and spend their money, releasing some of that pent up demand. According to the office of national statistics, inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index has been pushed by a rise in cost of things like fuel, Clothing And Food but as yOu Say, the increase was more than we were expecting. Many experts there had been predicting that for there had been predicting that for the month of may we might see a number around the month of may we might see a Numberaround I. 8 . So the month of may we might see a number around i. 8 . So the number read 2. I number around i. 8 . So the number read 2. 1 is higher than many had expected and is higher than the bank of Englands Target of 2 of them lets talk to one of those experts out there. Liz martins is senior economist as hsbc. Is this number higher than you were predicting and if so, why do you think that is . It predicting and if so, why do you think that is .

That part than they were this time last year. That part was all in the forecast. But then that part was all in the forecast. But then there are additional pockets but then there are additional pockets of information elsewhere in the economy that are running higher than we the economy that are running higher than we were expecting. 0ne the economy that are running higher than we were expecting. One example is hotels than we were expecting. One example is hotels and accommodation. As you mentioned, is hotels and accommodation. As you mentioned, restaurants for example are operating with less than usual supply are operating with less than usual supply. They are having to implement sociat supply. They are having to implement social distancing etc. They have gone social distancing etc. They have gone without revenues for the best part of gone without revenues for the best part of the gone without revenues for the best part of the year so it looks like they part of the year so it looks like they are part of the year so it looks like they are starting to put their prices they are starting to put their prices up they are starting to put their prices up in response to that and as he said. Prices up in response to that and as he said, there is pent up demand in the economy he said, there is pent up demand in the economy so they feel like consumers can take if they do raise the price consumers can take if they do raise the price is consumers can take if they do raise the price is a consumers can take if they do raise the price is a little.

If that is yesterday up 5. 6 year on year. If that is sustained, then that is a cost that is sustained, then that is a cost for that is sustained, then that is a cost for the company that they have to somehow claw back and they might claw it to somehow claw back and they might claw it back to somehow claw back and they might claw it back by putting their prices up. Similarly these social distancing and the input costs from importing distancing and the input costs from importing things from Parts Of Asia where importing things from Parts Of Asia where their Supply Chain shortages and blockages. All of these costs are coming together for companies and they are coming together for companies and they have a choice they can absorb and they have a choice they can absorb it and they have a choice they can absorb it at and they have a choice they can absorb it at their margins or pass it on absorb it at their margins or pass it on to absorb it at their margins or pass it on to us absorb it at their margins or pass it on to us as absorb it at their margins or pass it on to us as consumers.

Could travel a bit further north and also further west than this chart is showing and it will be humid across the far South East. Pressure conditions slipping in the north. In the north tomorrow, some sunshine whereas tomorrow, some sunshine whereas tomorrow we have the line of thunderstorms pulling away eventually into the north sea, leaving a fair bit of cloud in its wake with highs 23 and still feeling humid, Pressure Conditions in the north and west. Skellingthorpe hello, this is Bbc News. The headlines. The bbc has been told that Covid Vaccinations are to be made compulsory for Care Home Staff in england, who face losing their jobs if they dont get the jab. Well, this is something were looking at as a government, but what is very clear is it is important that Care Home Staff have those vaccines. Its important for their safety and also the safety of the residents of Care Homes. A warning from scientists that the uk is Shockingly Unprepared for rising temperatures and extreme weather caused by Climate Change. Uk inflationjumped to 2. 1 in the year to may, as the opening up of the economy from lockdown sparked a rise in spending. In an interview with the bbc, the Countess Of Wessex speaks of the impact of the duke of Edinburghs Death on the royal family. Sport, and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, heres adam wild. Talking about the euros. Its going to be tough for wales today. It certainly is. Were straight into the second round of fixtures at the euros today. And after drawing with switzerland in their opening match, Wales Face turkey this evening, knowing a win could put them on the verge of qualifying for the knockout stages, but, it certainly wont be straightforward. Hywel griffiths reports from baku. Bound by a border and the Blood Ties of millions, Azerbaijan And Turkey see each other as two states of one nation. It means 30,000 turkish fans will be here in baku for the game, outnumbering the Welsh Supporters by 100 to 1. Theyll be very, very vocal, im sure. And youve got the Turkey President coming over as well, and the azerbaijan president , so theyll want to put a good show on for them. We just sing as loud as we possibly can and we hope the players can hear us and we have a good time and thats all that matters. And sing the Welsh National Anthem as loud as we possibly can. Wales werent on song for their Opening Draw against switzerland. The players know theyll face a wall of noise tonight. Were used to playing in away games and being in front of hostile crowds so its something that we enjoy doing. If anything, it kind of spurs us on to be a bit more, i guess, a bit more ruthless on the pitch. And there couldnt be much more at stake. A win for wales should secure their place in the next round. But lose to turkey, and wales would have to beat italy in rome to stay in the tournament. Bucket hats in Baku Have helped keep off the heat, and some of the pressure. Tactically tonight could be a terse, tense affair. Were hard to beat. We have only lost once in our last 14 competitive games. Were hard to break down, we dont concede too many goals, but we dont score enough goals. Thats the problem that we have at the minute. Commentator clipped in, moore, yes Kieffer Moore for wales more of this would certainly help keep welsh hopes alive, as they take another big step on their european journey. Hywel griffith, Bbc News, baku. As well as wales, there are two more matches today. Italy Face Switzerland and finland face russia. Last night, france won their much anticipated Group F Opening game against germany. An own goalfrom Mats Hummels sealing a 1 0 win for the World Champions who also had two goals disallowed for offside. Before the game a Protester Parachuted into the stadium. It all went quickly wrong though as he got caught in the wiring for a camera above the pitch. Uefa have said this morning that several People needed Hospital Treatment for injuries. Over in budapest where a full stadium of fans watched hungary play the defending champions portugal. Cristiano ronaldos side left it late to start their euros with a victory. Three goals in the last seven minutes sealed a 3 0 win, with ronaldo scoring his 11th goal at a euros, thats more than anyone else. With wimbledon just around the corner, two british players have enjoyed a good start to their grass couit season. Dan evans is through to round two of queens after beating alexei popyrin. And Andy Murray is also through beating Frenchman Benoit Paire in straight sets. Its murrays first Singles Win on grass for three Years and he was, understandably, a bit emotional. Sorry, yeah, obviously, competing is where you put competing is why you put in all the hard work and in the last few Years, ive not got to do that as much as i would have liked, so, yeah, just great that im out here and able to compete again. And finally, canada booked their place in the final stages of Concacaf World Cup qualifying for the first time since 1998 overnight by beating haiti but that is not necessarily what People have been left talking about. Instead, its this, their Opening Goal of their 3 0 victory was a gift. An absolute nightmare for the haitian keeper who missed a backpass twice before it ended up in the back of the net. A moment best forgotten for him. And i dare say his as well thats all the sport for now. That is totally excruciating, isnt it, adam . Mind you, its the sort of mistake i would probably make if they put me on goal thank you very much. Researchers say they have found another life saving therapy to prevent deaths from covid 19, exactly a year after the discovery that a cheap Steroid Drug did the same. The treatment is a potent intravenous infusion of antibodies to neutralise the virus and costs between £1,000 to £2,000. Results from a trial suggest it could help one in three People in hospital with severe symptoms. And for every 100 patients treated, experts calculate, it would save six lives. Lets now speak to sir peter horby, he is professor of Emerging Infectious Diseases in the Nuffield Department of medicine at oxford university, and one of the chief investigators on the trial. Thank you forjoining us. Just tell us in laymans terms, why it works and why it is so effective. And why it is so effective. Good morning and why it is so effective. Good morning we and why it is so effective. Good morning. We all and why it is so effective. Good morning. We all produce and why it is so effective. 13mg morning. We all produce natural antibodies in response to infection and they neutralise the virus, they bind to it and stop it infecting ourselves. What this treatment is is it is basically artificial antibodies. The company has selected very potent antibodies, produced them in high concentrations and then we give them through an intravenous infusion for patients who dont have antibodies of their own. Just udauin antibodies of their own. Just judging from antibodies of their own. Just judging from that data that i was reading out, it is pretty successful. It reading out, it is pretty successful. Reading out, it is pretty successful. ,. , successful. It is. There were lots of questions successful. It is. There were lots of questions about successful. It is. There were lots of questions about the successful. It is. There were lots of questions about the likely of questions about the likely Benefit Or Lack of benefit of these types of drugs in hospitalised patients with covid. We had thought that perhaps its a bit late for treating the virus and that the Anti Inflammatory drugs like dexamethasone are what would work. So far, none of the antiviral drugs have been shown to reduce mortality in hospitalised patients. So we were very pleased to see the result that this drug and those who havent got their own antibody response, reduces their own antibody response, reduces the risk of death and also reduces the risk of death and also reduces the length of hospitalisation by about four days in hospital and also reduces the chances of being on a ventilator so its very good news. You mentioned dexamethasone, and that has been a revelation, the success of that drug and it is a very cheap drug. Would this be used in association with something like dexamethasone . In association with something like dexamethasone . ,. , dexamethasone . Yes, it would. These dru~s dexamethasone . Yes, it would. These dru. S Act Dexamethasone . Yes, it would.

One is an Anti Inflammatory and one is an antiviral and the result we are reporting today is in patients who are also receiving dexamethasone so this is an additional benefit. Igate this is an additional benefit. We have seen this is an additional benefit. We have seen incredible progress in terms of the vaccine. We have also seen incredible progress over the last year in terms of treatment, havent we . That is partly why the number of deaths has come down so steeply. It has been a really steep learning curve, though, hasnt it . It has and it has been quite remarkable. I mean, the vaccine has been quite phenomenal but also the treatments. The fact that within a year, from having a completely unknown virus, completely unknown disease, we have now got three or four treatments that we can use in hospitalised patients and reduce the length of hospital stay, or reduce death. That really is a significant advance. Its. Death. That really is a significant advance. � , advance. A very good news indeed. Sir peter horby, advance. A very good news indeed.

Joe Biden will meet the russian leader, Vladimir Putin, Joe Biden will meet the russian leader, Vladimir Putin, in geneva today, for the first time since he became us president. Its likely to be a tense meeting with relations between their two countries under severe strain over a number of issues including a number of issues, including Russias Annexation of crimea. Gary 0donoghue reports from geneva. For days hes been among friends, but now its time for President Biden to go and meet one of his foes. We should decide where it is in our mutual interests, in the interests of the world, to cooperate and see if we can do that. And the areas where we dont agree, make it clear where the red lines. The swiss, and in particular the city of geneva, are used to high stakes meetings. It was here that Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev began the cold War Thaw 36 Years ago. But with both current leaders admitting that relations are at their worst in decades, expectations for this summit are low. And dont expect any personal chemistry. These two have history. When the two met in 2011, then vice President Biden told President Putin that he had no soul. As recently as march this year, Joe Biden didnt hold back when asked about the deaths and poisonings of opposition figures. So you know Vladimir Putin, you think hes a killer . Mm hm. Ido. Its all very different to the last time an american president met Vladimir Putin. Donald trump publicly repudiated his own intelligence services, all of whom had concluded that russia had interfered in the 2016 president ial election to get him elected. Some others, they said they think its russia. I i have President Putin, he just said its not russia. I will say this, i dont see any reason why it would be. Despite president trumps approach, america has slapped dozens of sanctions and indictments on to senior russian figures. Something that moscow sees as totally unjustified. Translation we have been accused of all kinds of things. Election interference, cyber attacks, and so on and so forth, and not once, not once, not one time did they bother to produce any kind of evidence or proof. The us has a whole Shopping List of complaints against russia, from cyber and ransomware attacks on us companies and infrastructure, to the Annexation Of Crimea and the Build Up of russian forces on the east of ukraine border. On the eastern ukraine border. But President Bidens ambitions are likely to be much narrower than a total resolution of these major strategic functions. Major strategic frictions. You know, some of this, quite frankly, for mr biden, is drawing a stark line between his approach to Mr Putin and his predecessors, donald trump. But again, thats not managing the bilateral relationship. That is projecting a difference of us policy. But with chinas military and economic rise, beijing is americas biggest strategic problem right now, which means managing the relationship with moscow is all that really can be hoped for. Gary 0donoghue, Bbc News, geneva. As we heard from adam in the sports news, wales continue their euro 2020 campaign this evening, when they take on turkey in the azerbaijani capital baku. Welsh supporters are expected to be vastly outnumbered by their turkish counterparts, who are expected to make the short trip to baku in their thousands. Tens of thousands, indeed.

This is an area of outstanding beauty, as you can see behind me, and from above. This is in lancashire, the ribble valley, just near the top of pendle hill, not far from a place called clitheroe, and you might be asking why a farm like this is worrying about the Ink Drying on Downing Street. Well, this is why, this is thomas, and part of the 2500 gang of ewes that he rears every year.

Nina warhurst reporting there. The duke of Edinburghs Death in april left a giant sized hole in the lives of the royal family, sophie, Countess Of Wessex, has told the bbc. Shes been speaking to Naga Munchetty ahead of the uns international day for the elimination of Sexual Violence in conflict. 0ur royal correspondent Daniela Relph has more. The Countess Of Wessex spoke openly about her charity work, parenting teenagers and the death of the Duke Of Edinburgh. Just before lockdown, she visited South Sudan to raise awareness of Sexual Violence against women living in conflict zones. Its a key part of her royal work. She praised the bravery of women who shared the brutality of their experience. When you hear somebody� s story of Gang Rape and, literally, physically what has happened to them, it absolutely brings you to your knees. And i had tears falling off my face as she was talking to me. I was completely silent, but i was just in floods of tears. The countess also welcomed the increased openness amongst young women in the uk to discuss the sexual Harassment And Abuse they faced. She said it was something she had discussed with her 17 year old daughter and valued the honest conversations they have as a family. She is actually quite aware of it, so we chat about it quite a lot, and particularly if ive been on a trip somewhere, she wants to know where ive been and what ive been doing. So she has a natural curiosity about it, and its easy to have that kind of conversation with her. She also spoke about the death of the Duke Of Edinburgh and the impact of grief, especially those moments that catch you when you realise he isnt there. We were lucky enough to go to scotland for half term. I dont know if you remember the photograph that i took. Of the queen and the duke . Yeah. I was pregnant with louise at the time. And we went up there during half term. Are you 0k . Mm. And just to be there, in that place was an oh, my god moment. So i think theyll come and go. But you have to let them come and let them go. Away from the sadder moments, the countess said shed got fitter in lockdown, and the Tv Series she had binged over the past Year Line of duty. Daniela relph, Bbc News. A nine year old boy will deliver a letter to the Prime Minister this morning, asking him to help families who have to pay for Medical Cannabis to treat their severely epileptic children. Thomas Brauns Family pays nearly £800 a month for the drug for his brother eddie. Medical cannabis was legalised on the nhs in 2018, but since then only three People have been prescribed it. Ellie price reports. Dear Prime Minister, My Brother Eddie has really bad epilepsy. My Mum And Dad try their hardest for me and eddie. Tom only took three goes to write out his letter neat enough for the Prime Minister. He is nine, though keen to point out hell be ten next month. And hes got a lot on his mind. Getting a prescription from the nhs would help them a lot. Please support my family and all the other families. Yours sincerely, thomas braun. Im feeling excited to finally, maybe, help the solution to get eddie to live a better life and im feeling quite nervous as well. Because i feel like there is pressure for me on trying to help eddie. I want to only do the best for my brother and my family, and i need to do things that are probably out of my Comfort Zone but i should do them to help eddie. Eddie was born with Brain Damage following a rare genetic mutation. He has cerebral palsy, Learning Disabilities and severe complex epilepsy, and its for that he takes medicinal cannabis. He is six tomorrow, and has been on the drug since early 2017. Its not an nhs prescription, so it costs the family £780 a month. We have been lucky, weve had friends do some crazy events and raise money for us but covid has obviously hugely affected that. You know, some of the other families we know, theyve run out of money already, their kids are no longer on the product that was helping them and are doing worse for it. You know, theyre back in hospital, theyre back having lots of seizures. Another family have sold the family home. So its a very, very real crisis that we are all facing. We cant maintain private prescriptions and we need the government to act now to help us. Thomas, can you pack your bag, please . The law was changed three Years ago to allow nhs doctors to prescribe Medical Cannabis. But campaigners sayjust three nhs prescriptions have been issued. Leaving thousands of families to pay for the drug privately. And thats why tom and his mum are off to Downing Street to ask the Prime Minister personally for help. Ok, im ready, coming. I want Eddie Tojust be happy and healthy and enjoy his life, and i want thomas to be able to live a life where he doesnt have to see this. And we dont want the added worry of, will we run out of money next month . Thomas has suggested doing Fundraising Events with his friends, which, again, its a lovely incredible thing, but he is nine Years old, he shouldnt be thinking about things like that. The Department Of Health told us. Uh oh, no sleep means daddys in trouble later. This family say they have that clear evidence, and hope the Prime Minister will agree. Ellie price, Bbc News.

To the south of it, were looking at a lot of blue sky, rising humidity and rising temperatures. We could hit 28 29, possibly 30 as our maximum temperature today, but the Pollen Levels in england and wales are high or very high once again. As we head on through the course of the evening and overnight, what Youll Find is well start to import some torrential thundery downpours from france. So theyre going to be pushing across us through the course of the night. They could get into central, southern and Eastern Parts of england, potentially even as far west as Eastern Parts of wales. Move north of that, weve got clearer skies and fresher conditions, whereas it will still feel quite humid across the South East. Tomorrow, all these thunderstorms will move northwards. Some of them again torrential, they leave a lot of cloud in their wake but out towards the west and also the north, therell be a lot of dry conditions and it will feel fresher. It will still feel quite humid in the south, with highs of 20 23 degrees. Then as we move overnight from thursday into friday, we still will have a new line of thunderstorms coming our Way And Theyll be with us during the course of friday. Eventually, too, these will clear but out towards the west, although therell be a bit more cloud at times and it will be fresher, it will be pleasant enough for the time of year. Top temperatures between about 12 and 20 degrees. Now, Saturday Wont be as humid, it will be fairly settled. Weve got a ridge of High Pressure across us, mostly dry with one or two showers but you can see whats Waiting In The Wings for sunday. So weve got a Weather Front coming in from the west but we also have a lot of rain around and some of this could also prove to be heavy and thundery, eventually moving away from the South Eastern corner. Temperatures in the South East, 19 21, as we push northwards and westwards, were looking at about 12 16 degrees.
