At Ellesmere Port. And at 2. 45pm, well be going across the uk to find out more about the stories affecting you from ourjournalists up and down the country. Stay with us for that. Hello and welcome if you have just joined us. The Health Secretary Sajid Javid has announced that people, whove had both doses of a Covid Vaccine, will no longer have to self isolate if they come into contact with a positive case of the virus. The change which will come into force on 16th August, and will also apply to people under the age of 18 who are currently not eligible for vaccination. And in the last half hour, the Education Secretary Gavin williamson has announced an end to the � bubble� system in English Schools with no more Self Isolation for pupils who come into contact with positive cases. Heres what Mr Williamson had to say. Though keeping children inconsistent groups was essential to control the spread of the virus when our population was less vaccinated, we recognise that the system of bubbles and isolation is causing disruption to many childrens education. That is why we will be ending bubbles and transferring Contact Tracing to the nhs Test And Trace system for earlier settings, schools and colleges. Where there are outbreaks, schools and colleges may be contacted by nhs Test And Trace and they will also work with local Health Teams as they currently do now. We are also setting out new rules that mean that from the 16th Of August, children will only need to isolate if they have tested positive for covid 19. I am also pleased to be able to say that there will be no restrictions on in Person Teaching and learning in universities unless students are advised to isolate or are impacted by local outbreaks. Gavin williamson who i think is still speaking in the House Of Commons and we will continue to monitor his statement. Lets speak to General Secretary of The National Education Union shortly for his perspective. But as we heard, there have also been significant developments announced for the wider public with the news that from next month, people in England Whove had two jabs of a Covid Vaccine, Wont Need to isolate if they come into contact with someone who tests positive. Heres our Health Correspondentjim reed. Over 7 Million people in england have had a Call Or Notification like this, telling them to self isolate after being in contact with someone who tests positive for covid. Speaking in the House Of Commons, the Health Secretary said that is changing from the middle of next month. From the 16th Of August, when even more people will have the protection of both doses and when modelling suggests the risk from the virus will be even lower, anyone who is a close contact of a positive case will no longer have to self isolate if they have been fully vaccinated. Its just one of the major changes to life in england coming in 13 days time. Social distancing rules will be scrapped as well the guidance to work from home if possible. Masks in shops like this will become voluntary. I dont like wearing masks, I Like to see faces, half of the faces covered, not a way to lead your life, im afraid. Lets give it longer, yes, im bored with lockdown but hey, im still here. The decision to lift restrictions comes at a time when cases are rising sharply driven by the faster it spreading Delta Variant. The government says that could lead to as many as 100,000 infections a day this summer, the difference now though is that we have vaccines that work well. The latest weekly figures show those jabs driving excess deaths, shown here in red, back to the level we would expect in a normal year without covid. And a scientist, whose Advice Led to the first lockdown, expects the Hospital Admissions and deaths to stay far lower than in previous waves. Its a slight gamble, its a slight experiment at the moment, i think its justifiable and im reasonably optimistic, policy will have to remain flexible. If we end up in something close to the worst case scenario, we and other groups are looking at, which think is unlikely but cannot be ruled out, there may need to be a course for correction later. Others are worried legal restrictions are being lifted too quickly, laboursaying they want to open up the economy but some rules like mask wearing should continue in shops and on public transport. We want people to have their freedoms back but we dont want a high risk free for all. Remember the context that we are in. Infection rates sadly are rising again steeply. Hospitalisations are rising again. More people will die, sadly. The government is expected to confront the lifting of englands restrictions next week before going ahead onjuly the 19th. Governments in wales, scotland and Northern Ireland are also due to review the rules later this month. Jim reed, Bbc News. We can speak to our political correspondent, jonathan blake. Jonathan, in terms of a very busy raft of announcements but pretty much in line of what we were getting in terms of the steer from the prime Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely unexected Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely unexpected from Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely unexpected from what Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely unexpected from what they Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely unexpected from what they have i Yesterday'>Minister Yesterday. Nothing hugely i unexpected from what they have had to say in the House Of Commons today. Heavily hinted at by the premise Yesterday, those changes both to the School System in england with an end to the bubble arrangement, which has seen whole classes or whole year groups in some instances, sent home and told to isolate if one pupil developed coronavirus. That system will go. Along with some other changes announced by Gavin Williamson and from the Health Secretary Sajid Javid, more details on the system of isolation in england. If you have come into contact with someone who has tested positive for Coronavirus Up has tested positive for Coronavirus Up until now, you have been required to self isolate the ten days. That requirement will go for people who are over 18 and have had both vaccinations. It will also go for people under 18 as well. All of these things taken together do represent a shift in the governments approach, which perhaps is a part is partly put in place to ensure that people do not have to isolate for long periods of time, as would have been the case up until these changes were made because by these changes were made because by the governments own acceptance, we are going to see Case Numbers rise sharply over the coming weeks and months, up to potentially 100,000 positive cases per day, as the Health Secretary said earlier on. If you are looking at large numbers of cases like that, the government has felt like it is necessary and safe to reduce the requirements for people to isolate if they have come into contact with someone who has tested positive for coronavirus. The requirement will remain importantly for anybody who themselves have tested positive for covid 19 to isolate the ten days as they would do now. Kevin Courtney Isjoint General Secretary of The National Education Union. Hejoins me now from east london. Afternoon to you. You have heard from the statement that Gavin Williamson made in the last hour or so. Presumably, on the question of The End of bubbles, you must be quite pleased about that . We The End of bubbles, you must be quite pleased about that . We are a little surprised quite pleased about that . We are a little surprised by quite pleased about that . We are a little surprised by it quite pleased about that . We are a little surprised by it because quite pleased about that . We are a little surprised by it because what l little surprised by it because what had been trailed to us previously was that bubbles would end and be replaced by daily Contact Tracing. That is not the announcement. Instead, they are saying, bubbles will end, isolation will end, Head Teachers will no longer have two new Contact Tracing and instead nhs Contact Tracing and instead nhs Contact Tracing and instead nhs Contact Tracing will get a contact from the child, will ask them who they are close contacts are and then ask those children to get a Pcr Test thatis ask those children to get a Pcr Test that is not on a daily basis and the children can be in school until they get the Pcr Test and would only isolate if they were positive on that. So, that is a bit of a surprise. We were obviously, All Of Us, went to find a way for children not isolating such large numbers. The increase this week from 375,000 last week to 640,000 this week is astonishing. Schools are doing what they are asked to do by government cases are rising so fast because the government did not quarantine returners from india and they let the Delta Variant go and because of mask wearing as well, cases are going up very fast. In mask wearing as well, cases are going up very fast going up very fast. In terms of practicality. Going up very fast. In terms of practicality, not going up very fast. In terms of practicality, not only going up very fast. In terms of practicality, not only do going up very fast. In terms of practicality, not only do you i going up very fast. In terms of l practicality, not only do you lose going up very fast. In terms of practicality, not only do you lose a whole class at a stroke but from your point of view, the Colleagues Point of view, they have to combine teaching for other classes in school and provide at Home Teaching for the kids who have been. Isolate, even if they have got no symptoms. In a sense, the bubbles have been a major problem, hasnt it . The government have said that it has not been very practical. Have said that it has not been very ractical. ~ ,. , , have said that it has not been very ractical. ~ ,. , ,. , practical. Absolutely. It is not even that practical. Absolutely.

That happens under some circumstances but quite often it is some children in a Class Bubble and then the teacher is trying to teach some in class and some who isolating. Staff who are School Staff who are of school. Not because they have covid 19, but because they have covid 19, but because they have been close contacts of someone with covid 19. 0ne Contacts of someone with covid 19. One of the things that the Education Secretary has said is that some measures will continue. He pointed out in all term about things like enhanced hygiene and ventilation, what progress has been made on that this year . What progress has been made on that this ear . , �. ,. , this year . Very little, im afraid. There is enhanced this year . Very little, im afraid. There is enhanced hygiene this year . Very little, im afraid. There is enhanced hygiene but i there is enhanced hygiene but schools are not being reimbursed for the cost of bad enhanced hygiene. Enhanced hygiene. We have asked for c02 enhanced hygiene. We have asked for Co2 Monitors to be deployed. They c02 monitors to be deployed. They dont improve the ventilation but they tell you if the ventilation is bad. And each gpa filters, which the government the german government are giving to schools. We think that the government should be looking at that. The big question is, i do think the government by the set of announcements is saying that they have got a form of herd immunity, not like it was before, but they are hoping that the spread of vaccination and the spread of infection among 20 year olds is going to mean that cases start to fall. Previously in the other peaks, we have had pieces rising and then they have fallen because of government restrictions, that is what brought them down again. Now they are going to fall at some point just because there is no one left to infect. They are hoping that deaths and hospitalisations will not rise. They are hoping, as we all hope, that a new variant will not evolve which can escape the vaccine and they are hoping they will not be lots of long covid 19 cases in children. Lots of long covid19 cases in children. ~. , lots of long covid19 cases in children lots of long covid19 cases in children. ~. ,. , children. What will happen to classes in children.

You are disappointed that the Government Hasnt spoken more about testing, i have had some teachers who are deeply uneasy about the idea of on Site Testing every day for pupils. But do you think that that is now what schools will need in the autumn . ,. ,. , is now what schools will need in the autumn . ,. ,. ,. , autumn . The government is going to ask schools to autumn .

It is a one Off Process like the schools did in march, so before the run up to march the 8th. This is secondary schools only but all children were tested before the return in march and those who were positive were asked to stay at home. My previous Comments Werent of this point, we all hope for the best but i think that they need to be doing a lot more in case things arent the best. We need to be investing in ventilation in schools now. I think we need to be looking at public Health Running Mass testing on a regular basis in schools. If we ever decide that we cant just let cases schools. If we ever decide that we cantjust let cases rise because deaths and hospitalisations are going, because long covid turns to turns out to be more than we thought it would be.

A man has appeared in court charged with assaulting englands chief medical Officer Professor chris whitty.

Hell appear before westminster Magistrates Court later in the month. Bars and restaurants in England Wont require customers to sign into venues using the Test And Trace app Afterjuly 19th if the next stage of Lifting Restrictions is confirmed on monday. In recent weeks, businesses have been complaining that the app sends too many alerts, causing disruption as workers have to be sent home. So what will the future be for the app . Rory Cellan Jones has been Finding Out. The app will help us safely live our lives, protecting you and others. It had a difficult birth, but since last september, millions of us have used the nhs Test And Trace app to scan in when we visit a cafe or pub, and more importantly, to get alerts telling us when we may have been in contact with someone with covid 19. Something of the order of half A Million to 600,000 cases were averted as a result of using this app. So that has to be worth it. The Nhs Covid 19 app has been downloaded nearly 26 Million times, but we dont know how many people are still using it. More than A Million positive Test Results have been recorded in the app, and theyve triggered nearly two and a half million Contact Tracing alerts, sending people into isolation. You can see here how theres been a spike in those alerts, as cases have risen in the last few weeks. The fact that thousands of locations ask you to scan in to register a visit, has encouraged use of the app. But what happens when places like this are told they no longer need to get people to check in . It seems possible that many customers will simply decide to turn the app off, especially given the high number of alerts its sending out right now. With infections on the rise again, some businesses say the app is causing them real problems as staff are sent home. And amongst the public, there are mixed feelings about sticking with it. If i dont need it to get into restaurants and stuff, yeah, ill get rid of it for sure. As things are getting better, and i had my two jabs, and hopefully everyone else will have the second jab, i might not use it. I think its important that we can keep track of people that may be infected, and especially with new variants coming in as well. I think its really important. The team behind the app strongly believes it still has a job to do. But as life gets back to normal, persuading people not to turn it off may prove tricky. Rory Cellan Jones, Bbc News, west london. The headlines on Bbc News. From next month, people in England Whove had two jabs of a Covid Vaccine Wont Need to isolate if they come into contact with someone who tests positive. Meanwhile, the Education Secretary Gavin williamson has set out plans to scrap bubbles in englands schools in the final stage of the easing of Covid Restrictions. And in other News Vauxhall announces a 100 Million Pound Investment in electric vehicles, securing more than 1,000 jobs at Ellesmere Port in cheshire. And lets stay with that last headline and unions say workers at Ellesmere Port can now breathe a huge sigh of relief after todays electric vehicle announcement. With more details heres our Business Correspondent Theo Leggett. For years, dark clouds have been hanging over the Box Plant at Ellesmere Port. Vauxhall plant. But now, alas, the workforce has a reason be cheerful. Parent company says it plans to invest £100 Million preparing the factory to build a new range of electric vans as well as Passenger Versions of the same models. We are offering at Ellesmere Port Plant Vauxhall and the british Automotive Industry a new era of all electric Vehicle Manufacturing and a sustainable future. The new investment is badly needed, the factory currently makes an old version of the Vauxhall Astra but it is outdated and because of the governments plan to outlaw the sale of new Petrol And Diesel cars by 2030, its replacement will be built elsewhere. So why vans . The increase in home deliveries, which has only grown during the pandemic, means things like this are selling very well at the moment but on top of that, increasing Emissions Regulations in towns and cities across europe means demand for this kind of vehicle is only going to grow and still in disbelief that is good business. And the company think that is good business. But this investment comes at a price. Bosses made it clear Uk Production would need support from the Uk Government. That support is thought to be worth tens of millions of pounds. Every country in the world that has advanced manufacturing, all their governments are having the kinds of conversations we are having, it is a competitive situation and we are absolutely prepared to help investment in the uk or britishjobs and for our economy. The News Today follows last Weeks Announcement by nissan of a much larger investment in electric Car Production at its plant in sunderland. But experts say much more is needed if the Uk Industry is to remain competitive. The hard fact is whilst this is a really great start, we need much more investment like this in the Uk Car industry, if it to survive. And batteries and factories or what it is all about, the Car Industry will ultimately move to where the batteries are made. Nevertheless, with uncertainty over Trading Conditions after brexit now out of the way, automotive manufacturers are clearly happier to invest in the uk. And the outlook for the industry here it seems brighter than it has for several years. Theo leggett, Bbc News. Well, our Business Correspondent Colletta Smith has been at the Vauxhall Plant for todays announcement. Certainly relief for the 1030 workers based here at the port in cheshire. The Production Line behind Me Hasjust turned on cheshire. The Production Line behind me has just turned on again. Cheshire. The Production Line behind Me Hasjust turned on again. The staff here are working away on the Vauxhall Astra is. This time next year, the production of those vehicles will have stopped entirely and this Production Line, we have now heard, will have completely transformed. This time next year, The View will look very different indeed, and instead, what is going to be produced are electric vehicles. So, what we will be seeing is these three vans. They will be produced right here as well as fiat. It is notjust normal vans, it is electric vans. As we are hearing there, the crucial element is that there, the crucial element is that the batteries will be made in france and germany and shipped here. The vans and the vehicles will be made here, the batteries will be inserted into the vehicles before they roll off the Production Line. A huge relief for the star. There are certainly a lot more Job Security then there was Yesterday. This has definitely this is definitely a line that the company themselves are hoping will grow massively. As the normal cart market. By the time it gets to 2020, or 2030, when all of the vehicles that we are driving in the vehicles that we are driving in the uk will be electric, the company here, vauxhall, are hoping that a massive part of the market here and elsewhere will be rolling out of this plant. Campaigners are at the High Court to support a woman with downs syndrome, whos trying to get a change to abortion laws. At the moment, a pregnancy can be terminated up to full term in england, scotland and wales if the foetus has downs syndrome, most other Abortions Cant take place beyond 24 weeks. Heidi crowter says the law discriminates against people who could have gone on to lead full and happy lives like her and her husband. Frankie mccamley reports. Sorry, my love surrounded by friends, family and supporters, today Heidi Crowter is taking on the government. Here we are at the High Court, to challenge the the downright discrimination. She wants to challenge the law that makes abortion legal up until birth if the foetus has a disability, including down syndrome. Joining her, parents who have children with disabilities. Some say they felt pressured into an abortion. The whole language sets the tone, you know, my baby was referred to as a chromosonal abnormality. Hes 17 this summer and im immersed in Maternity Care now and im seeing it day out, day out. Women being told, even, do you want to take the Baby Home . I mean, this is 2021 in the uk. And a familiar face also here to offer her support. I think its really important that people with disabilities take this, women with disabilities in particular, take this argument forward. Because i am pro choice, but i also believe that everyone should be equal under the law. Back at home in coventry, heidi recently celebrated Herfirst Wedding Anniversary with husband james. She says she lives life to the full. We are someone who has down syndrome, and we want to say to the world, that we have a good quality of life. Heidis legal team have raised over £100,000 to take on the government in this landmark test case. It is after around 90 of women who find out their foetus have down syndrome choose to have an abortion. But some experts say, this isnt a decision thats Ta Ken lightly. Were Talking About a relatively small number of abortions every year that take place after 24 weeks. These are incredibly challenging, heartbreaking circumstances, involving often very, very much wanted pregnancies. Where women have to make really tough decisions and i think to imply that somehow those decisions are made flippantly or casually is incredibly offensive to the women involved. The case will be heard at the high Court Today and tomorrow. Frankie mccamley, Bbc News. Three men who were part of a group that became known as the stockwell six have had their convictions for robbing a Police Officer, nearly 50 years ago, quashed by the court of appeal. Paul green and cleveland davidson, pictured here outside the High Court, had their convictions overturned, as did courtney harriot. The three were aged between 17 and 20 at the time of the trial in 1972, which was largely based on the evidence of a corrupt detective. The criminal Cases Review Commission is still trying to trace two other members of the group. Knowingly arriving in the uk without permission would become a new criminal offence, under legislation to be published later today. The nationality and Borders Bill will introduce longer maximum sentences for anyone entering the uk without a legal reason. The government hopes the overhaul of Asylum Rules will deter migrant channel crossings. But labour says the move potentially breaks international law. The long anticipated legislation will face detailed scrutiny from mps and peers later in the year. Around A Thousand more babies would survive each year in england, if Maternity Services were as safe as those in sweden, according to a group of mps. The health and social Care Committee says a lack of staff, and a Blame Culture which prevents lessons from being learned, are significantly hindering Maternity Services. Germany is relaxing Covid Restrictions on travellers from the uk and four other countries. From tomorrow, Uk Tourists will be able to enter the country even if theyre not residents. Those who are fully vaccinated also wont have to quarantine. 0ur Berlin Correspondentjenny hill has this report. Just two weeks ago, Angela Merkel was trying, in vain, to persuade other Eu Leaders to impose tighter restrictions on travellers from the uk. Now germany is to relax its own rules. The government, worried by the spread of the Delta Variant, had, in effect, banned anyone who wasnt a german Citizen Or Resident from entering the country from britain but, as of tomorrow, that will no longer apply, although people who arent fully vaccinated will have to quarantine for at least five days. The decision will No Doubt be seen by some as a victory for borisjohnson, who discussed the issue with Chancellor Merkel during their meeting last week. Others may interpret it as a concession to the demands of other European Countries keen to welcome back british tourists, but the relaxation of restrictions, which also applies to portugal, russia, india and nepal, may simply represent an acknowledgement on the part of the authorities here that the Delta Variant is now fast becoming the dominant strain in germany too. Its hoped an initiative to encourage more diversity in the police could lead to 40 of new officer recruits next year being from ethnic minority backgrounds. Currently 15. 6 within the metropolitan police are from these backgrounds. The forces behind the Badge Programme is trying to foster trust in all communities. The bbc asian Networks Anisa kadri reports. 0ut Out and about with londons met police for what is known as a ride along. It is notjust for journalists, they are also open to the public so that people can see what the police do. We are just getting called up somewhere now. We are en route to a possible break in. But when we get there, it turns out to be builders setting off an alarm system. With ambitious plans to increase diversity in the police. We want a Police Service that reflects the diversity of The City. A lot of people believe that it is not as diverse, for example, theres mention of racism, which from doing the job, i have never experienced. Figures show 15. 6 of Police Officers are from black and ethnic minority backgrounds, 3. 6 black. The metropolitan police has ambitious aspirations going forward. The london metropolitan Police Force is the biggest in the country and it has been told that 40 of new recruits should be from black and ethnic minority backgrounds. This, it hopes, means it will better serve the communities in the capital. We need to understand that especially in our community as asians, and muslims, we struggle to understand how and where the police come from at times. I have been there myself where i would not necessarily have had the best view because of what we see. We only see one side of police and it is not necessarily always positive. I was lucky, i had a very close friend in the police who has been there from the start. Hes also british asian Like Me. He used to tell me this is why they do certain things and those conversations i used to have with him as an outsider before ijoined the police. Were there any particular areas of argument . For example, there may be a video where six officers try to restrain one person. 0n the outside, before ijoined the please, oh, my god, this is police brutality. This is that. However, once you get on the inside, you understand that the techniques they are using is to bring the person under control in the safest manner. It is thought policies like Stop And Search have not helped. The police hope their behind the Badge Campaign allows people to hear the experiences of ethnic minorities and helps foster trust in the force. Now its time for a look at the weather with tomasz shafernaker. Well, it certainly feels like summer is on hold. Further showers expected through the rest of today and into tomorrow and the reason for it is this low pressure, which swept across the country earlier on today. It brought some really quite heavy rain and some strong winds to southern areas. In the second half of the day, the more persistent rain is around Eastern Scotland and the North East of england. Elsewhere, it is a mixture of areas of cloud and showers come and go as well. That will continue into the evening hours and overnight. It is not going to be a cold night, temperatures in the south around 13 or 14 degrees, not far off that in scotland as well. So, tomorrow, we will call it a day of sunny spells and showers. Some of the showers could be heavy. There could be some thunder but i think most of the time, most of the day, the weather should be dry. More sunshine tomorrow, so feeling a little bit warmer.

It is not an exact science and is part of their considerations they have to think about the players, spectators and the worldwide Broadcast Audience which is why that match is pushed into that Prime Time slot. Ultimately, it wasnt fair on Emma Raducanu without late start. Of course, for her opponents will have to play Ash Barty today with a far less addressed.

Not long to go now, just one day until englands Semi Final Match against denmark, and manager Gareth Southgate says he and the team have the opportunity to bring happiness to millions. The squad continued their preparations as they trained at St Georges Park today. All 26 players were involved ahead of their first Semi Final at a European Championship since in 25 years. But before all that its italy versus spain in the first Semi Final at wembley tonight. Both teams trained after arriving in london Yesterday. The italians have been one of the stand out sides so far and are one of the favourites to win the tournament. And the Australian Grand Prix has been called off for the second year in a row because of the coronavirus pandemic. The event in melbourne was due to take place in november but has been abandoned because of tight Border Controls in australia. Thats all the sport for now. For most of us, grabbing a Face Covering as we leave the house has become as natural as picking up our keys, wallet and phone. In less than a fortnight, as weve been hearing, wearing one in england will become a matter of personal choice. Graham satchell has been Finding Out how Yesterdays-announcement'>Yesterdays Announcement was received. Its the first time in more than a year this group of musicians have met up in person. For george, the prospect of no restrictions, no social distancing, no masks, is massive. Well, im looking forward to getting back to living my life as it was before. Its going to be good for me in my line of work that i can actually do singing in a bar with a microphone without a mask on. Its going to be very useful to actually be able to work again doing that. Lorraine is a ukulele teacher, her income decimated by not being able to hold classes in person. Nevertheless, shes worried restrictions are being lifted too quickly. I think i might be a bit more cautious. Id love to be able to be in person again, but not at the risk of my long term health. Public opinion is split between those desperate to return to normality and those worried about the virus still spreading. 0n the street, the signs are everywhere, from shopfronts to buses, but wearing a mask in england will no longer be mandatory in just a couple of weeks. I think is quite good because weve been living with these forso long, so, yeah, Hopefully Everything Goes well and we can get rid of the masks. I firmly believe theres still a lot of people that arent inoculated. And if we pick something up, even though weve been inoculated, we can still pass it on. So ijust think for a little bit longer, we should be holding onto the masks. We have to learn to live with it. I totally appreciate that. But equally, im not too sure were at the stage where the Government Canjust make it an individual choice, there has to be some parameters and there has to be some accountability there in terms i of where does the government stop and the individual begin, so to speak. I face masks were made compulsory a year ago injuly. Theyve had a disproportionate impact on some, like those with hearing difficulties. A mask makes lipreading impossible. The isolation, as weve seen mental health wise across the population has been tough. But for a community that are isolated in a way anyway, its been incredibly tough with the masks and the not being able to hear. But from a pure Lip Reading Point of view, yes, being able to Lip Read will be a definite advantage. Others are really worried about masks becoming voluntary. For hundreds of thousands of people with a suppressed Immune System, the Vaccine Isnt totally effective, and the Face Covering is a last line of defence. I will continue to wear a mask because of the incidence that we are unsure of the efficacy of the vaccine. I am double vaccinated, but i did get covid in march when id had one vaccine. So yes, i will still be wearing my mask. There will be winners and losers when restrictions are lifted in england and little consensus about whether its the right or the wrong thing to do. Graham satchell, Bbc News. Lets get more now on the Education Secretary Gavin williamson announcing an end to the � Bubble System in English Schools with no more Self Isolation for pupils who come into contact with positive cases. Im joined by jane davis, headteacher at lanchester endowed parochial Primary School in county durham. The obvious thing to ask you is what you make of that decision to end the Bubble System .

I dont know whether they will bring out testing for children like you have in secondary schools. It is more problematic for younger children because it is quite invasive and uncomfortable. What i am hoping is that there may be some kind of noninvasive test like a Saliva Test for children that they could do daily to make sure that they are clear of covet. I think the children have just missed so much school through the bubbles going down and i think they have to have some kind of normality. Notjust in the academic side of things but for their emotional Well Being. Children have missed out on so much. That their emotional wellbeing. Children have missed out on so much.

I think their whole concept of school has changed and the fact they are allowed to come to school, it gives them a real thrill. To see their faces when we have to send a bubble home, they are in tears, they are devastated by the thought of not seeing their friends for another ten days. When they come back to school it has affected Social Skills because invariably parents are working at home or they are on zoom calls, they got no social interaction with Each Other. We have noticed a death in that across the board with all ages. Hour noticed a death in that across the board with all ages. Board with all ages. How do you handle that . Board with all ages.

Building their resilience and a social interaction with Each Other. Weve actually we concentrated on that in our school, just to help them play and be with Each Other. The last couple of weeks in the Summer Term which we are now in is often a time of fun in the school, post exams, schools have their sports day, the weather is better generally better have you lost a lot of things like that which are particularly important for kids coming to an end of their primary years .

The majority of children have been able to take part of those. But some have had to isolate so theyve missed out. We had sports days last week but we had to close the school because we had so many bubbles down. We are limping through to The End of term. But we are wanting to make it a special time for our year six. We were due to have a sleepover in the school hall. We cant have it due to covid bets we are going to have it outdoors, barbecue, a campfire, trying to do all we can and be creative to make sure those children dont miss out because they missed out last year. Dont miss out because they missed out last year out last year. Good luck with the Lim In out last year. Good luck with the limping through out last year.

The headlines on Bbc News. New guidance for the Double Jabbed from 16th August as the government continues to relax Covid Restrictions. The end of Self Isolation for pupils who come into contact with positive cases in English Schools. The Education Secretary says the Bubble System causes too much disruption. Vauxhall announces a £100 Million investment in electric vehicles, securing more than 1,000 jobs at Ellesmere Port. Now on Bbc News its time to take a look at some of the stories making the headlines across the uk. Its almost 20 years since rioting caused well be bringing you stories from Bradford And Nottingham shortly but first to scotland, where the government says the country is still on track to see Covid Restrictions lifted next month, despite record high cases reported in recent weeks. Ministers say its still the plan to move to level zero onjuly the 19th, with the last legal restrictions ending on the 9th of august. Read 0n lets get more details from our correspondentjamie mcivor. There has been concern of rising Case Numbers over the first few weeks. But it could mean it will level off. In the past hour with the latest data in scotland, just over 2300 new positive cases of covid today, that is a fall for the fifth day in a row and well off the numbers we have seen a week ago. All through the pandemic, the Scottish Government has characterised its approach as being more cautious than the Approach South of the border. 0n the Approach South of the border. On july 19, the Approach South of the border. 0n july19, it the Approach South of the border. On july 19, it is still a Big Day in scotland but it wont be the same as Freedom Day South of the border. 0n Freedom Day South of the border. On july the 19th, the plan in scotland is the whole of the main and should be able to move to what is described as a level zero. While that is a significant easing of restrictions it is not the same as The Ending of legal restrictions in england. Nightclubs will have to stay closed and no more than eight people from four households will be able to gather in a private home. If all goes well, come august the 9th, then there could be the complete easing of legal restrictions in scotland. But it looks as though the advice to wear a facemask on the train, on the bourse are in a shop, that it may still remain in place. Again, not quite the same as what is happening in england, a more cautious approach, a slower timetable and that advice on wearing a facemask may remain. That advice on wearing a facemask may remain may remain. More on that on reporting may remain. More on that On Reporting Scotland may remain. More on that On Reporting Scotland tonight. I may remain. More on that on i reporting scotland tonight. Yes. Its almost 20 years since rioting caused millions of Pounds Worth of damage to bradford. The events of that warm Summer Night when hundreds of rioters took to the streets became a Turning Point for The City. It changed lives with some facing Prison Sentences, Police Officers were traumatised and many people were injured. Two decades on and there are still mixed views about the riot� s impact on future generations. Right here come on the Front Line, working with young people trying to stop them from getting involved in crime and getting involved in any trouble.

A little grey out there for some of us today and it has been raining quite heavily in some parts of the country. Here is the headline for the next few days, sunny spells, yes, but scattered showers. You can see the heavy Showers Icon there. Essentially, it remains a fairly unsettled. Here is the low pressure from last night. You can see spiralling across the uk. Propelled by this Big Dip in the jet stream, a big trough we call it, and that is driving the unsettled weather. As long as thats big trough is over the uk the weather will remain showery. It will remain so across the country. Here is the radar showing the rain from the North East, further south we have got showers, they are affecting the South East so wimbledon might catch one or two and there will be further showers in the forecast for tomorrow as well. Through the second half of today, the most persistent rain in the North East here. To the south, west of the uk, cluster of showers coming in carried by a strong breeze. It is still quite windy in the south, even into this evening. Not much changes through the night. Lots of clear spells around but also a scattering of showers. 14 in the south, around 13 in the north. Not a particularly cold night. Here is the Weather Map for the middle of the week, for wednesday, the low pressure around the northern isles, theres another Weather Fronts crossing the country. That is going to spark off some showers as well. Generally, a fair bit of cloud around but also some decent sunny spells around as well. But notice the showers here. Almost anywhere across the country. Some of them could be heavy, thundery, but because there is more centring around on wednesday, the temperatures will be a little bit higher. Thursday a similar day. More Dry Weather around on thursday, again, with temperatures in the low 20s. Not exactly exhilarating for the rest of this week but i guess it could be worse. Here is our outlook into the weekend. Another little area of low pressure affects the south of the country, bringing some outbreaks of rain. Cant guarantee Dry Weather anywhere over the weekend. Cool, Summer Weather for the rest of the week into the weekend with, as we say, a chance of showers. Brolly to hand just in case. This is Bbc News. Im shaun ley. The headlines at 3pm. New guidance for the Double Jabbed from the sixteenth of august as the government continues to relax Covid Restrictions. Anyone who is a close contact of a positive case will no longer have to self isolate if they have been fully vaccinated. Sadly, being Double Jabbed means you are still a risk to others, and yet, he is releasing controls on transmissions, at a time where infections are rising, and then, hospitalisations will rise as well. The end of Self Isolation for pupils who come into contact with positive cases in English Schools. The Education Secretary says the Bubble System causes too much disruption. That is why we will be ending bubbles and transposing Contact Tracing to the Nhs Tester and Trace System for schools and colleges. Vauxhall announces a £100 Million investment in electric vehicles, securing more than 1,000 jobs at Ellesmere Port. The artist Damien Hirst tells us hes dealt with Lockdown Anxiety by changing tack no more dissected cows, instead its all about cherry blossom. Good Afternoon And Welcome to Bbc News. The Health Secretary Sajid Javid has announced that people whove had both doses of a Covid Vaccine in england will no longer have to self isolate if they come into contact with a positive case of the virus. The change which will come into force on 16th August, will also apply to people under the age of 18 who are currently not eligible for vaccination. Also this afternoon, the Education Secretary Gavin williamson has announced an end to the � Bubble System in English Schools. Well have more on that shortly, but first heres our Health Correspondent, jim reed. Over 7 Million people in england have had a Call Or Notification like this, telling them to self isolate after being in contact with someone who tests positive for covid. Speaking in the House Of Commons, the Health Secretary said that is changing from the middle of next month. From the 16th Of August, when even more people will have the protection of both doses and when modelling suggests the risk from the virus will be even lower, anyone who is a close contact of a positive case will no longer have to self isolate if they have been fully vaccinated. Its just one of the major changes to life in england coming in 13 days time. Social distancing rules will be scrapped as well the guidance to work from home if possible. Masks in shops like this will become voluntary. I dont like wearing masks, I Like to see faces, half of the face is covered, not a way to lead your life, im afraid. Lets give it longer, yes, im bored with lockdown but hey, im still here. The decision to lift restrictions comes at a time when cases are rising sharply, driven by the faster spreading Delta Variant. The government says that could lead to as many as 100,000 infections a day this summer, the difference now though is that we have vaccines that work well. The latest weekly figures show those jabs driving excess deaths, shown here in red, back to the level we would expect in a normal year without covid. And a scientist, whose Advice Led to the first lockdown, expects the Hospital Admissions and deaths to stay far lower than in previous waves. Its a slight gamble, its a slight experiment at the moment, i think its justifiable and im reasonably optimistic, but policy will have to remain flexible. If we end up in something close to the worst case scenario, we and other groups are looking at, which i think is unlikely but cannot be ruled out, there may need to be a course for correction later. Others are worried legal restrictions are being lifted too quickly, laboursaying they want to open up the economy but some rules like mask wearing should continue in shops and on public transport. We want people to have their freedoms back but we dont want a high risk free for all. Remember the context that we are in. Infection rates sadly are rising again steeply. Hospitalisations are rising again. More people will die, sadly. The government is expected to confront the lifting of englands restrictions next week before going ahead onjuly the 19th. Governments in wales, scotland and Northern Ireland are also due to review the rules later this month. Jim reed, Bbc News. We can speak to our political correspondent, jonathan blake. Let me bring you some Breaking News.

The now poignant exuberance of nicole. When they could not be contacted after the outdoor celebration, they were reported missing. Officers went to the site of the Birthday Picnic in North London after a call from their friends, frustrated by the police response, they had begun their own search. It was nicoles girlfriend who found the sisters ultimate body is intertwined in the undergrowth. Danyal hussein was arrested after his dna was found on both bodies and his dna was found on both bodies and his blood was discovered all over the murder scene.

He had researched the far right and had developed a fascination for satanic. In life, Bibaa And Nicole shared that special sisters bond. Theirfamily and all of those who left them are now. To live their lives contemplating everything that has been lost. Lets hear from our correspondence at the Old Bailey. Helena, this has been a deeply disturbing case. Very traumatic for the family to hear the evidence and the details of the circumstances in which these two women died. Two women who had been celebrating a happy Family Event that very day. Yes, indeed. Danyal hussein, just to repeat that Making News from the Old Bailey here. The Jury News from the Old Bailey here. The jury heard during the trial that the sisters had been celebrating miss henrys 46th birthday. They had been with friends, they were happy, they were laughing. I was later they were killed in a ferocious attack that Danyal Hussein had it launched on them. He had been lying in wait and appeared out of the darkness. They would have been a moment that the sisters had realised that that stranger was about to approach them and there was absolutely nothing that they could do about it. As you mentioned there, Bibaa Henry was stabbed eight times, his sister, who had witnessed the attack and tried to defend herself, she was stabbed 28 times. Danyal hussein, 19 years old, has been found guilty here at the Old Bailey of murdering the Sisters Injune of last year. And what is happening in the court at the moment, i can tell you the reaction from Danyal Hussein as those guilty verdicts were read out in court, he crossed his arms as those verdicts were delivered, and then he began to shake his head and pull his hair back behind his head as the prosecutor spoke. They are now reading victim impact statements to the court now. The mother of the sisters has been describing her daughters, their interests, what they had done in their life. As the statement was read out, one of the jurors broke down in tears. A Court Clerk gave them a tissue. So, it was incredibly distressing scenes in the Old Bailey at the moment, as the victim impact statements were read out. In terms of the trial itself and how Daniel Hussain Danyal Hussein has behaved during the trial. The leader of the investigation said that he had absolutely no respect for anybody. He had no respect for the Court System. At one point, he turned his back to thejudge. System. At one point, he turned his back to the judge. He was seen looking at the family and laughing. The detective, the Detective Chief Inspector who led the investigation had described Danyal Hussein as a very, very dangerous man and an evil person. So, in court at the moment, they are reading those impact statements to the court and we should shortly after court has finished here at the Old Bailey, we are going to hear outside the court from the Detective Chief Inspector and we are going to have a statement from the mothers sister. Just to repeat that Breaking News here from the Old Bailey, Danyal Hussein, 19 years old, has been found guilty of murdering two sisters, Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman in a park in North London injune. In the report, it also touched on the fact that after police had arrested Danyal Hussein and gone to his house, they found notes that he had written to the devil, and in one of those notes, he had signed it with his own blood and he had said in that note that he would sacrifice or make a minimum of six sacrifices a month and those sacrifices would be women in exchange, he wanted to win the lottery, the megA Millions super jackpot. And indeed, the police found Lottery Tickets that were bought 24 hours after he had killed the sisters. Once court has finished here and once those victim impact statements have been read out to courts, we are expecting to hear reaction from the detective leading this investigation and also from the Sisters Mother, who has sat here throughout this trial having to listen to the most distressing details about how her two daughters were killed, the hours before they were killed, the hours before they were killed, the hours before they were killed, when they were celebrating miss Henrys Birthday and the ferocity of the attack, the injuries that her daughters suffered. She has remained absolutely dignified throughout this trial. Thank you very much. Thank you very much for bearing with us despite the atrocious weather is down there. The mother of those sisters was particularly angry at the course of the Police Investigation because it was the family who had found the body of the sisters not the police. They had went searching because they did not feel like the Police Reaction had been strong enough. It will be interesting to see if she raises her concern about Police Investigation again. We will bring more of that to you over the course of the next couple of hours. The Education Secretary Gavin williamson has set out plans to scrap bubbles in englands schools in the final stage of the easing of Covid Restrictions. Children will only have to isolate if they test positive. Lets hear some of what Mr Williamson had to say to mp5, earlier this afternoon. Though keeping children in consistent groups was essential to control the spread of the virus when our population was less vaccinated, we recognise that the system of bubbles and isolation is causing disruption to many childrens education. That is why we will be ending bubbles and transferring Contact Tracing to the nhs Test And Trace system for earlier settings, schools and colleges. Where there are outbreaks, schools and colleges may be contacted by nhs Test And Trace and they will also work with local Health Teams as they currently do now. We are also setting out new rules that mean that from the 16th Of August, children will only need to isolate if they have tested positive for covid 19. I am also pleased to be able to say that there will be no restrictions on in Person Teaching and learning in universities unless students are advised to isolate or are impacted by local outbreaks. Lets speak to our Education Correspondent Sean Dilley. There will not be a lot of surprise to teachers and parents of the bubbles are going but it is unclear about what kind of system is going to replace them to ensure that the Virus Doesntjust to replace them to ensure that the virus doesnt just spread to replace them to ensure that the Virus Doesntjust spread through schools.

They have said that the Vaccination Programme is key because it is ending that link between infections and deaths but Gavin Williamson today has said that it but Gavin Williamson today has said thatitis but Gavin Williamson today has said that it is important to get schooling back to normal as soon as possible. The one thing that teachers and, particularly the unions, are keen to stress here is that there is a scientific basis that there is a scientific basis that they would like to know about and the 19th ofjuly is a fair time away, so we have a runaway train of absences which is increasing week on week. ~ �.

And that is before these restrictions were lifted, i can only see about accelerating further. So, if people could carry on wearing masks, i would really appreciate that.

Three men, who were part of a group that became known as the stockwell six, have had their convictions for robbing a Police Officer, nearly 50 years ago, quashed by the court of appeal. Paul green and cleveland davidson, pictured here outside the High Court, had their convictions overturned, as did courtney harriot. The three were aged between 17 and 20 at the time of the trial in 1972, which was largely based on the evidence of a corrupt detective. The criminal Cases Review Commission is still trying to trace two other members of the group. The bbc has revealed that it has cut its Pay Bill by 10 for some of its top talent.

The fact is that the bbc� s digital growth in the last year has been huge. Iplayer has grown by 28 . That is huge. The average amount of time that people are spending on the bbc has also grown and it is reaching 90 of people. It is also quite striking that the bbc has over the past year connected with a vast number of new young people, the people by the bbc has been worried the big unknown is whether these young people, who are consuming all of these bbc staff, are going to bother to pay for a Licence Fee. On that, we dont have any evidence yet. The bbc desperately needs these people to pay for their Licence Fee, if they dont, the entire Funding Model of the bbc is undermined. Lode dont, the entire Funding Model of the bbc is undermined. Dont, the entire Funding Model of the bbc is undermined. We call them relenishes the bbc is undermined. We call them replenishes because the bbc is undermined. We call them replenishes because they the bbc is undermined. We call them replenishes because they are the bbc is undermined. We call them replenishes because they are not replenishes because they are not just replenishing the audience but they are replenishing the funding. There are things about savings that we hear a lot about in the bbc. A couple of years ago, the bbc took bbc three off the air and it went online, so it will be a huge saving. A few months ago, the bbc announced success, surprisingly that bbc three is coming back because they were new programmes that people love them. Presumably, these things cost more again . And back in the last year, because we are producing extra programmes and reduced income, the bbc is more than £125 million down from where it thought it would be. The bbc will have reserves that it can go into but there is an overall picture, where the bbc� s Licence Fee income is in danger of going down, if these notorious replenishes dont turn up. And dont have that many in the pocket. They have got to pay if they want to watch all of this stuff, or consume all of this stuff. Another thing is that the bbc has bbc studios. It is partly about growing the revenues of Bbc Radio so that you can offset the loss. That change is what the bbc is. It is a £5 million organisation, 70 of that comes from this Licence Fee, this universal tax or effectively that and a bit comes from commercial income. What we are seeing is a change in the balance to find some of those savings that you say the bbc needs and to grow revenues, so it is becoming ever more commercial. If people want more, it is online.

The nationality and Borders Bill will introduce longer maximum sentences for anyone entering the uk without a legal reason. The government hopes the overhaul of Asylum Rules will deter migrant channel crossings. But labour says the move potentially breaks international law. The long anticipated legislation will face detailed scrutiny from mps and peers later in the year. Around A Thousand more babies would survive each year in england, if Maternity Services were as safe as those in sweden, according to a group of mps. The health and social Care Committee says a lack of staff, and a Blame Culture which prevents lessons from being learned, are significantly hindering Maternity Services. Now its time for a look at the weather with tomasz shafernaker. Well, it certainly feels like summer is on hold. Further showers expected through the rest of today and into tomorrow and the reason for it is this low pressure, which swept across the country earlier on today. It brought some really quite heavy rain and some strong winds to southern areas. In the second half of the day, the more persistent rain is around Eastern Scotland and the North East of england. Elsewhere, it is a mixture of areas of cloud and showers come and go as well. That will continue into the evening hours and overnight. It is not going to be a cold night, temperatures in the south around 13 or 14 degrees, not far off that in scotland as well. So, tomorrow, we will call it a day of sunny spells and showers. Some of the showers could be heavy. There could be some thunder but i think most of the time, most of the day, the weather should be dry. More sunshine tomorrow, so feeling a little bit warmer.

In the ladies draw, it was ruthless display from czech karolina pliskova. It took her just 81 minutes to win 6 2, 6 2 against Viktorija Golubic to reach her first wimbledon Semi Final. And pliskova will face the winner of this match, Ons Jabeur and Aryna Sabalenka are on Centre Court. Both players are looking to reach their first ever grand slam Semi Finals. Over on Court Number one, 2018 Champion Angelique Kerber is up against 2019 Quarter Finalist Karolina muchova and its kerber� s experience thats shining through at the moment. She has gone a set up there. The anticipation is building ahead of Englands Euro 2020 Semi Final against denmark tomorrow. Its been a long time since theyve reached this stage of a major Tournament And Manager Gareth Southgate knows how much is riding on the game. Both semis are at wembley, and John Watson is there for us now. How will southgate preparing his squad, ahead of the match . Will they feeling the weight of history on their shoulders . I dont think so to be honest with you. Gareth southgate has been clear throughout that he has laboured that point at all. He has tried to free the players from the shackles that it carried through previous tournaments. This is a fantastic opportunity for a medical on a replicate that achievement is back in 1966 by winning a major tournament for the very first time since then. They are not going to get a better opportunity. Yes, it is denmark, a team that cannot be underestimated. A waiver of emotion has swept through so far. Gareth southgate is a very good in keeping hiS Players feet on the ground. They have produced a brilliant results. Because two of to a slow start but with harry kane firing, still no goals conceded. That emphatic win against ukraine in the room, 4 0 winners. It is set up beautifully for england. Winners. It is set up beautifully for england its what it means to the country really. Its not. I think if youre a coach, its a bit like being a parent. You gone past the moment where its about you and its about what you pass on to others. And when youre the england manager, you have the opportunity to bring happiness to so many millions of people. You have the opportunity to do the opposite as well by the way. But you do have the opportunity to make people create memories, um, and most importantly, for your players to try to create the best version of them as a group and the best of them individually that they can hope to have. John, to get through that match tonight, two old rivals of European Football are going head to head. Italy against spain. This is the first of the semifinals. It italy against spain. This is the first of the semifinals. First of the semifinals. It is. It is a match first of the semifinals. It is. It is a match which first of the semifinals. It is. It is a match which needs first of the semifinals. It is. It is a match which needs no is a match which needs no introduction. You consider these to have a rich history and the biggest stage. They faced Each Other nine times at major tournaments. It is italy that are edging it with four wins to spains two. Italy have been breathtaking stuff they had the slight wobble against austria but they were impressive when they beat belgium. Some brilliant goals. A superb goal here. We have seen the best and worst of italy. And then we had the faint injuries which frustrated a lot of people. But they managed the game brilliantly when belgium needed to push for an equaliser. Forthe belgium needed to push for an equaliser. For the 21 minutes remaining the ball was in play for about nine minutes. That is what italy the do, the other masters of the dark arts. It helps them in that match. It is going to be a fascinating contest when you consider how well they have been playing, italy. But you cant underestimate spain. They got off to a slow start but they have won this tournament a few times before. In 2008 and in between the world cup. They came past switzerland on penalty after that emphatic 5 0 win over slovakia. The goals have been hard to come by for spain so far in this tournament. They have had issues. We saw the abuse that was levelled at morata after he faced criticism having failed to fail the net in the early stages of the tournament. They have had to come through difficulties, spain, but undera through difficulties, spain, but under a former Champions League Winner we know how good he is at taking charge of big teams of the biggest stage. It is going to be interesting when you consider this place is going to be 60,000 full. That is the biggest crowd we will have seen at a big game like this in 16 months. It is going to be a fascinating atmosphere. Absolutely. I cant fascinating atmosphere. Absolutely. I Cant Wait fascinating atmosphere. Absolutely. | Cant Wait. 60,000 fascinating atmosphere. Absolutely. I Cant Wait. 60,000 biggest fascinating atmosphere. Absolutely. I Cant Wait. 60,000 biggest crowd| i Cant Wait. 60,000 biggest crowd since wembley� s posted the euro is there. Thank you very much indeed. Thats all the sport for now. Ill have more for you in the next hour. The Education Secretary Gavin williamson has set out plans to scrap bubbles in englands schools in the final stage of the easing of Covid Restrictions. Children will only have to isolate if they test positive. Kevin Courtney Isjoint General Secretary of The National Education Union gave his reaction to the news. We are a little surprised by its because what had been trailed to us previously was that bubbles would end and be replaced by daily contact testing. That isnt the announcement. Instead, they are saying, bubbles will end, isolation will end, Head Teachers no longer have to do Contact Tracing and instead nhs Contact Tracing will get a contact from a child, ask them who their close contacts are, we will then ask those children to go and get a Pcr Test. But that is not on a daily basis and the children could be in school until they get the Pcr Test and would only isolate if they were positive. That is a bit of a surprise. We were obviously, we All Of Us want to find a way of children not isolating in such large numbers. The increase this week from 375,000 last week to to 640,000 this week is astonishing. Schools are doing but they are asked to do by governments but cases are rising so fast because the Government Wouldnt Quarantine returners from india and they have let the Delta Variant go. And then because they have removed my squaring as well, cases are going up very fast. I can speak now to the conservative mp, robert halfon, Whos Chair of the Commons Education select committee. That afternoon to you. First of all, to what Gavin Williamson had to say this lunchtime. He welcomed the statement is when you spoke in the House Of Commons. The point that was being raised by The National Education Union is what else is needed to compensate for The End of the Bubble System . The needed to compensate for The End of the Bubble System . The Bubble System . The first thing i should say is the Bubble System . The first thing i should say is this the Bubble System . The first thing i should say is this is the Bubble System . The first thing i should say is this is about the Bubble System . The first thing i should say is this is about the should say is this is about the children. I welcome the Announcement Today because we have hyperinflation in terms of children being sent home, missing school, not being able to learn, suffering with mental health as a consequence. A week or so ago it was 385,000 children that were sent home. We now know from the bbcs were sent home. We now know from the bbc� s own website it is 640,000 children that have been sent home. Separate to that, we have 92,000 children who have not even return to school since they were fully reopened. We have a problem of Exam Year students missing significant amounts of learning. We now know that gcse students in year ten have missed one in four days of face to face teaching. That will affect them in terms of having a level playing field for exams next year. The government have made the right decision. I wish it had come earlier because we need to keep our children learning, it isnt about their education but about their mental health, safeguarding and chances to climb the education ladder opportunity. The chances to climb the education ladder opportunity. Chances to climb the education ladder opportunity. The point that he made is. Ladder opportunity. The point that he made is, the ladder opportunity. The point that he made is, the vines ladder opportunity. The point that he made is, the vines will ladder opportunity. The point that| he made is, the vines will continue to circulate, about 100,000 infections a week by summer. The rest of the term is written off about making significant changes but what about the autumn . What about ventilation in schools where, because the weather is going to deteriorate, is not going to be as straightforward as saying, lets open all the windows. The government is settin open all the windows. The government is setting out open all the windows. The government is setting out measures open all the windows. The government is setting out measures to open all the windows. The government is setting out measures to make open all the windows. The government is setting out measures to make sure i is setting out measures to make sure thatis is setting out measures to make sure that is ventilation in the autumn. That is what the secretary of state said this afternoon. Testing is going to continue regularly or throughout september. They are going to rely also separately on the nhs Test And Trace system. The crucial thing is the precautions will be made. The other big difference now is, thank goodness, most adults have been vaccinated. By september they will be even more adults who have been vaccinated. Children are incredibly low risk from this pandemic. We have to make a decision as a country. It is abetted oft have our Children School Learning and ensuring they are able to climb that ladder of opportunity . Is its better to have our children. Has ladder of opportunity . Is its better to have our children. As you know, the better to have our children. As you know, the vaccine better to have our children. As you know, the vaccine is better to have our children. As you know, the vaccine is not better to have our children. As you know, the vaccine is not a better to have our children. As you know, the vaccine is not a get know, the vaccine is not a get out ofjail free card. Know, the vaccine is not a get out Ofjailfree Card. We know know, the vaccine is not a get out ofjail free card. We know that because the way the virus operates. That doesnt automatically mean idols who are double vaccinated are immune from the infection. Children can carry the infection and parents will want to know their children are in a safe environment, for example, with adults who are teachers who have the potential to be infected. What about, it is fine to say the government is going to tell us that there is, scrapping the Bubble System without telling us about the things, about the specifics of how testing will take place, without telling us the specifics on what is ventilation measures will be in place, where they have Co2 Monitors to alert you to the fact there Ventilation Problem . What measures will be available and what support will be available and what support will be available for continuing hygiene measures in school . That is about giving people half the picture. About giving people half the icture. ,. About giving people half the icture. ,. ,. Picture. That is existing guidance about ventilation. Picture. That is existing guidance about ventilation. Teachers picture. That is existing guidance about ventilation. Teachers are i about ventilation. Teachers are sa in it about ventilation. Teachers are saying it hasnt about ventilation. Teachers are saying it hasnt led about ventilation. Teachers are saying it hasnt led to about ventilation. Teachers are saying it hasnt led to any about ventilation. Teachers are i saying it hasnt led to any changes in the classroom. Saying it hasnt led to any changes in the classroom. They will be more uuidance in the classroom. They will be more guidance put in the classroom. They will be more guidance put out. In the classroom. They will be more guidance put out. This in the classroom. They will be more guidance put out. This Isnt Guidance put out. This isnt happening immediately, there will be happening immediately, there will be happening by september. You mentioned the vaccination, they are not going to be, there is no get out Ofjailfree Card for not going to be, there is no get out ofjail free card for everyone. But we can minimise, whether it is in hospitality, business, going back to work or whatever it may be, the Vaccination Programme has made a huge difference. We are in a completely different situation to where we were a few months ago. We have to make a decision as a society, do we think that is modest to children being at home or do you think it is better for children and pupils and students to be learning again in school, colleges and universities . We know given what has happened to young people over the past 18 months, it has been nothing short of a national disaster. Being at school is much better for their health, for their attainment and their mental Well Being as well. I dont have anyone could dispute that. We had Head Teacher saying, Childrens Attitude to schools have been transformed by this experience. The enthusiasm she sees from youngsters returning to school is something that has lifted her spirits. You raise the specific point in the about exams. Whether the government could ensure a level playing field for next years exams for those children who have missed so much school. What have you heard and what do you still want to hear from government on this to reassure you about that . I do worry about exams. Ideally, they should take place but i worry that isnt a level playing field because hundreds and thousands of children have been missing school and as i mentioned, something like, in year ten, and as i mentioned, something like, in yearten, yearten and as i mentioned, something like, in year ten, year ten gcse pupils have a missing one in four face to face days of teaching. That is very worrying because at what kind of level playing field will there be . In response to be in the commons, Gavin Williamson said he would be setting out measures to mitigate this, to ensure there was a level playing field that weve got to make sure there is going to be that level playing field because otherwise it will be unfair to those students who have missed school, who will do worse in exams, through no fault of their own. The headlines on Bbc News a man is found guilty of the murder of sisters Nicole Smallman, and Bibaa Henry in a north London Park injune 2020 Danyal Hussein repeatedly stabbed the sisters police found a handwritten note that promised to sacrifice women in exchange for winning the lottery. New guidance for the Double Jabbed from the 16th Of August as the government continues to relax Covid Restrictions bars and restaurants in England Wont require customers to sign into venues using the Test And Trace app afterjuly19th, if the next stage of Lifting Restrictions is confirmed on monday. In recent weeks, businesses have been complaining that the app sends too many alerts, causing disruption as workers have to be sent home. So what will the future be for the app . Rory Cellan Jones has been Finding Out. The app will help us safely live our lives, protecting you and others. It had a difficult birth, but since last september, millions of us have used the nhs Test And Trace app to scan in when we visit a cafe or pub, and more importantly, to get alerts telling us when we may have been in contact with someone with covid 19. Something of the order of half A Million to 600,000 cases were averted as a result of using this app. So that has to be worth it. The Nhs Covid 19 app has been downloaded nearly 26 Million times, but we dont know how many people are still using it. More than A Million positive Test Results have been recorded in the app, and theyve triggered nearly two and a half million Contact Tracing alerts, sending people into isolation. You can see here how theres been a spike in those alerts, as cases have risen in the last few weeks. The fact that thousands of locations ask you to scan in to register a visit, has encouraged use of the app. But what happens when places like this are told they no longer need to get people to check in . It seems possible that many customers will simply decide to turn the app off, especially given the high number of alerts its sending out right now. With infections on the rise again, some businesses say the app is causing them real problems as staff are sent home. And amongst the public, there are mixed feelings about sticking with it. If i dont need it to get into restaurants and stuff, yeah, ill get rid of it for sure. As things are getting better, and i had my two jabs, and hopefully everyone else will have the second jab, i might not use it. I think its important that we can keep track of people that may be infected, and especially with new variants coming in as well. I think its really important. The team behind the app strongly believes it still has a job to do. But as life gets back to normal, persuading people not to turn it off may prove tricky. Rory Cellan Jones, Bbc News, west london. Its hoped an initiative to encourage more diversity in the police could lead to 40 of new officer recruits next year being from ethnic minority backgrounds. Currently 15. 6 within the metropolitan police are from these backgrounds. The forces behind the Badge Programme is trying to foster trust in all communities. The bbc asian Networks Anisa kadri reports. Basically you dont know what is round the corner. Orahead of you. Out and about with londons met police for what is known as a ride along. Its notjust forjournalists, they are also open to the public so people can see what police do. We are just getting called out somewhere now. And we are en route to a possible break in. But when we get there it turns out to be builders setting off an alarm system. Ambitious plans to increase diversity in the police, these ride alongs are one way of improving Engagement And Building trust. We want a Police Service that reflects the diversity of The City. A lot of people believe that it is not as diverse, for example, theres mention of racism, which from doing the job, i have never experienced. Figures show 15. 6 of Police Officers are from black and ethnic minority backgrounds, 3. 6 black. The metropolitan police has ambitious aspirations going forward. The london metropolitan Police Force is the biggest in the country and it has been told that 40 of new recruits should be from black and ethnic minority backgrounds. This, it hopes, means it will better serve the communities in the capital. We need to understand that especially in our community as asians, and muslims, we struggle to understand how and where the police come from at times. I have been there myself where i would not necessarily have had the best view because of what we see. We only see one side of police and it is not necessarily always positive. I was lucky, i had a very close friend in the police who has been there from the start. Hes also british asian Like Me. He used to tell me this is why they do certain things and those conversations i used to have with him as an outsider before ijoined the police. Were there any particular areas of argument . For example, there may be a video where six officers try to restrain one person. On the outside, before ijoined the please, oh, my god, this is police brutality. This is that. However, once you get on the inside, you understand that the techniques they are using is to bring the person under control in the safest manner. It is thought policies like Stop And Search have not helped. The police hope their behind the Badge Campaign allows people to hear the experiences of ethnic minorities and helps foster trust in the force. Germany is relaxing Covid Restrictions on travellers from the uk and four other countries. From tomorrow, Uk Tourists will be able to enter the country even if theyre not residents. Those who are fully vaccinated also wont have to quarantine. Our Berlin Correspondentjenny Hill has this report. Just two weeks ago, Angela Merkel was trying, in vain, to persuade other Eu Leaders to impose tighter restrictions on travellers from the uk. Now germany is to relax its own rules. The government, worried by the spread of the Delta Variant, had, in effect, banned anyone who wasnt a german Citizen Or Resident from entering the country from britain but, as of tomorrow, that will no longer apply, although people who arent fully vaccinated will have to quarantine for at least five days. The decision will No Doubt be seen by some as a victory for borisjohnson, who discussed the issue with Chancellor Merkel during their meeting last week. Others may interpret it as a concession to the demands of other European Countries keen to welcome back british tourists, but the relaxation of restrictions, which also applies to portugal, russia, india and nepal, may simply represent an acknowledgement on the part of the authorities here that the Delta Variant is now fast becoming the dominant strain in germany too. The artist Damien Hirst, famous for his bisected cow, shark in Formaldehyde And Diamond studded skull, has changed tack. His new exhibition is of oil paintings of cherry blossom. The show, in paris has been delayed twice because of covid, but has finally opened today, showcasing canvases painted during long periods working alone during lockdown. Our Paris Correspondent Lucy Williamson was given a preview. As shocking as a dead animal or a diamond studded skull in the eyes of the artist. As much about life and death. Damien hirst has been painting cherry trees, dozens upon dozens of them, all the way through the pandemic. Much of it alone, without his team of assistants, thanks to Covid Restrictions. Itjust became a really solitary thing, making art, which ive never really got it to that point except when i was very young. So it was quite nice to do that, and then trying to find some positivity in all the negativity and all the anxiety that everybody is feeling. In the beginning i was really anxious, but its funny that in that anxiety, i made these paintings that are really positive. The canvases got larger in lockdown, he says. Leaves appeared and shifts in perspective gave more gravity to the trees. I rememberjohn lennon once said, somebody said to him, why did he cut his hair in the 70s . And he said, well, what else would you do after you have grown it . It kind of feels something like that, i always just try to keep reinventing myself. Yeah. My mum used to say to me, theres enough horror in the world, cant you just paint flowers . Maybe she got to me eventually. Flowers that are in his Words garish, messy, almost tacky. Someone who saw them the other day asked me if i was in love, hirst told me, but i hope theyre more psychotic than that. Lucy williamson, Bbc News, paris.

Here is the headline for the next few days, sunny spells, yes, but scattered showers. You can see the heavy Showers Icon there. Essentially, it remains a fairly unsettled. Here is the low pressure from last night. You can see spiralling across the uk. Propelled by this Big Dip in the jet stream, a big trough we call it, and that is driving the unsettled weather. As long as thats big trough is over the uk the weather will remain showery. It will remain so across the country. Here is the radar showing the rain from the North East, further south we have got showers, they are affecting the South East so wimbledon might catch one or two and there will be further showers in the forecast for tomorrow as well. Through the second half of today, the most persistent rain in the North East here. To the south, west of the uk, cluster of showers coming in carried by a strong breeze. It is still quite windy in the south, even into this evening. Not much changes through the night. Lots of clear spells around but also a scattering of showers. 14 in the south, around 13 in the north. Not a particularly cold night. Here is the Weather Map for the middle of the week, for wednesday, the low pressure around the northern isles, theres another Weather Fronts crossing the country. That is going to spark off some showers as well. Generally, a fair bit of cloud around but also some decent sunny spells around as well. But notice the showers here. Almost anywhere across the country. Some of them could be heavy, thundery, but because there is more centring around on wednesday, the temperatures will be a little bit higher. Thursday a similar day. More Dry Weather around on thursday, again, with temperatures in the low 20s. Not exactly exhilarating for the rest of this week but i guess it could be worse. Here is our outlook into the weekend. Another little area of low pressure affects the south of the country, bringing some outbreaks of rain. Cant guarantee Dry Weather anywhere over the weekend. Cool, Summer Weather for the rest of the week into the weekend with, as we say, a chance of showers. Brolly to hand just in case. This is Bbc News. Im shaun ley. The headlines at 4pm.

She is a retired anglican priest, so it is interesting that she made reference to the Church Community and the support that they had received, that she and herfamily had received support that they had received, that she and her family had received from other members of the church. Helena, that statement was a very warm tribute to the police. The relations between the Police And Family had not started well with the initial investigation, had they . Ida.

No, there is an investigation that is investigation, had they . No, there is an investigation that is going investigation, had they . No, there is an investigation that is going on | is an investigation that is going on into that missing persons report, that was put in by a friend of the sisters and the family as well. That investigation is being carried out by the independent office of Police Conduct and we understand that that investigation has now completed and the results of that report will be related to the metropolitan police and also to the Sisters Family as well but there was clearly frustration from both the family and friends of the sisters about the searches for the sisters, and in fact, it was the boyfriend of Nicole Smallman who found the sisters bodies on the following day, what was a shocking discovery, the jury heard in court. The mother of the sisters, we also heard a victim impact statement that was read in behalf of Mina Smallman who we have just heard from there. In that statement, it said that to lose two of your three children on the same Night Isjust of your three children on the same night is just incomprehensible and some of Thejurors Night is just incomprehensible and some of the jurors were visibly upset. Onejurorwas some of the jurors were visibly upset. Onejuror was in tears some of the jurors were visibly upset. One juror was in tears as that statement was read to court. In terms of the reaction from Danyal Hussein himself in the dock or during the trial, there was a moment when he turned his back on the church. There was another occasion when he was staring at the family and laughing, a detective that we just heard from earlier, said afterwards that he had shown absolutely no respect for the family or the Court System at all but in the dock, when those guilty verdicts were read to the court, hussain crossed his arms Danyal Hussein crossed his arms Danyal Hussein crossed his arms when the verdicts were read. But as you say there, a warm statement from the mother of the sisters, Mina Smallman, who has had to sit through this five week trial, listening to the most distressing details about the last hours of her daughters lives. They had been celebrating with friends. It was miss henrys 46th birthday party. They had been in the park on that evening and it was hours later, on the early hours of the 6th Of June last year, Danyal Hussein was lying in wait in the darkness armed with a knife. Thejury had heard during a trial that there was a moment, they must have been a moment when the sisters knew that the stranger, who they did not know, was about to approach them and there was nothing they could do about it. To recap the news from the Old Bailey here in the last hour or so, Danyal Hussein, 19 years old has been found guilty of murdering two sisters, Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman in the Park Injune of last year after he had written a contract with a demon, saying that he would sacrifice women in exchange for winning the lottery. Winning the lottery. Helena wilkinson winning the lottery. Helena wilkinson at winning the lottery. Helena wilkinson at the winning the lottery. Helena wilkinson at the old winning the lottery. Helena | wilkinson at the Old Bailey. Winning the lottery. Helena wilkinson at the Old Bailey. Thank you. Let me bring you some Breaking News. These are the Case Numbers for covid 19 in the last 24 hours. 20,773 people tested positive for covid 19 and in that same period, the deaths of 37 people were reported. That is people who had died within 28 days of testing positive for covert 19 covid 19. The Health Secretary Sajid Javid has announced that people whove had both doses of a Covid Vaccine in england will no longer have to self isolate if they come into contact with a positive case of the virus. The change which will come into force on 16th August, will also apply to people under the age of 18 who are currently not eligible for vaccination. Also this afternoon, the Education Secretary Gavin williamson has announced an end to the � Bubble System in English Schools. Well have more on that shortly, but first heres our Health Correspondent, jim reed. Over 7 Million people in england have had a Call Or Notification like this, telling them to self isolate after being in contact with someone who tests positive for covid. Speaking in the House Of Commons, the Health Secretary said that is changing from the middle of next month. From the 16th Of August, when even more people will have the protection of both doses and when modelling suggests the risk from the virus will be even lower, anyone who is a close contact of a positive case will no longer have to self isolate if they have been fully vaccinated. Its just one of the major changes to life in england. In 13 days time, social distancing rules will be scrapped as well the guidance to work from home if possible. Masks in shops like this will become voluntary. I dont like wearing masks. I like to see faces, half of the face is covered, not a way to live life, im afraid. Lets give it a bit longer. Yes, im bored with lockdown, but hey, im still here. The decision to lift restrictions comes at a time when cases are rising sharply, driven by the faster spreading Delta Variant. The government says that could lead to as many as 100,000 infections a day this summer. The difference now though is that we have vaccines that work well. The latest weekly figures show those jabs driving excess deaths, shown here in red, back to the level we would expect in a normal year without covid. And a scientist, whose Advice Led to the first lockdown, expects the Hospital Admissions and deaths to stay far lower than in previous waves. Its a slight gamble, its a slight experiment at the moment. I think its justifiable and im reasonably optimistic, but policy will have to remain flexible. If we end up in something close to the worst case scenario, we and other groups are looking at, which i think is unlikely but cannot be ruled out, there may need to be a course for correction later. Others are worried legal restrictions are being lifted too quickly. Labour is saying they want to open up the economy but some rules like mask wearing should continue in shops and on public transport. We want people to have their freedoms back but we dont want a high risk free for all. Remember the context that we are in. Infection rates sadly are rising again steeply. Hospitalisations are rising again. More people will die, sadly. The government is expected to confirm the lifting of englands restrictions next week before going ahead onjuly the 19th. Governments in wales, scotland and Northern Ireland are also due to review the rules later this month. Jim reed, Bbc News. We can speak to our political correspondent, jonathan blake. Jonathan, we have had these two statements today. We have the prime Ministers Announcement and then a simultaneous statement in the House Of Commons Yesterday. All of this creates a picture, in which the government has clearly made a judgment about how were going to go forward with this virus. Is its confidence shared across the House Of Commons . Itlot confidence shared across the House Of Commons . Confidence shared across the House Of Commons . Not entirely. There is some political of commons . Not entirely. There is some political pressure of commons . Not entirely. There is some political pressure on of commons . Not entirely. There is some political pressure on the some political pressure on the government from labour, certainly. They are accusing them of going too far and too fast, although if you look at labour� s criticism, it really does come down to the use of masks, which it seems the party would like the government to still legally require people to wear in certain situations but it wont do that. It will have only guidance or advise people to wear them in enclosed and crowded places and we will hear the details of that in a couple of weeks time, when these measures come into force. But it is as you say a shift in the governments approach, given the success of the Vaccine Roll outs, the fact that the majority of adults have double vaccinations and young adults are getting those vaccinations at an increased rate, ministers clearly feel that they are in a position to not only lift all legal restrictions in england on the 19th ofjuly but also make changes to the Test And Trace isolate programme, which you heard the details explained by Sajid Javid in the House Of Commons today. People will no longer have to use of isolate if they came in contact with them in with covid 19 provided that they have had both vaccine doses. We will see a change in the School System as well, so those bubbles or classes all year groups sent home when one child has symptoms or falls ill will not happen in the future. Taken together, this does mean that the government is taking a step to allow cases of coronavirus to rise to what could be in the Health Secretarys own Words, 100,000 cases per day over the course of the summer. Allowing the virus to circulate much more widely than it did during the pandemic other parts of the pandemic, the risk has throughout been the driving factor in the governments response.

Do send your questions. Your questions, hosted Byjane Hill will be at 5 30pm. The Education Secretary Gavin williamson has set out plans to scrap bubbles in englands schools in the final stage of the easing of Covid Restrictions. Children will only have to isolate if they test positive. Lets hear some of what Mr Williamson had to say to mp5, earlier this afternoon. Though keeping children in consistent groups was essential to control the spread of the virus when our population was less vaccinated, we recognise that the system of bubbles and isolation is causing disruption to many childrens education. That is why we will be ending bubbles and transferring Contact Tracing to the nhs Test And Trace system for earlier settings, schools and colleges. Where there are outbreaks, schools and colleges may be contacted by nhs Test And Trace and they will also work with local Health Teams as they currently do now. We are also setting out new rules that mean that from the 16th Of August, children will only need to isolate if they have tested positive for covid 19. I am also pleased to be able to say that there will be no restrictions on in Person Teaching and learning in universities unless students are advised to isolate or are impacted by local outbreaks. I asked our Education Correspondent Sean Dilley what might replace the � Bubbles System to try to combat the spread of coronavirus within schools. Well, i think ministers are being consistent in saying that they would expect the infection is to rise. They have said that the Vaccination Programme is key because it is ended that link between infections and deaths but Gavin Williamson today has said its important to get schooling back to normal as soon as possible. The one thing that i think teachers and, particularly the unions, are keen to stress here is that there is a scientific basis that there is a scientific basis that they would like to know about, and of course, the 19th ofjuly is a fair time away, so we have this runaway train of absences which is increasing week on week. For some it is coming too soon and for others it should not be happening at all. In the autumn, the importance of maintaining hygiene regimes in school and looking at ways of improving ventilation. That will be prominent when the weather deteriorates in the winter. Is there practical action in that area . Lithe practical action in that area . One thin that practical action in that area . One thing that teachers practical action in that area . Que thing that teachers watching practical action in that area . Iez thing that teachers watching now and parents and families know is that guidance doesnt necessarily follow on the day of statements. I think there is an awful lot of latitudes that school will have around this but lots of the regulation is going to stay. The wearing of masks is no longer recommended. Draft legislation intended to tackle what ministers describe as a broken Asylum System is being introduced to parliament. The Home Office says the bill will help prevent people whove passed through a safe country claiming asylum in the uk. Refugee campaigners warn that thousands of people who are currently given asylum will be turned away in the future. Our home Affairs Correspondent Daniel Sandford has this report. Until the pandemic broke last year, the number of people claiming asylum in the uk had doubled since 2010. If you look back over the last two decades, the number of applicants was still less than half what it was 20 years ago. And the figure, including dependents, is significantly lower than the numbers in germany, france, spain and greece. The pandemic also triggered a change in how people try to get to britain. The number crossing the channel on small boats rose sharply. It was 8500 last year. It is heading for an even greater number this year. The home secretary, priti patel, says she wants to create a fair but firm system that will break the Business Model of the people smuggling gangs. The nationality and Borders Bill will allow the Uk Government to return people to a safe country if they pass through it on the way to britain. Campaigners say this will result in thousands of valid claims being deemed inadmissible, and call it a shameful dereliction of duty. The bill will also allow asylum claims to be processed outside the uk, potentially paving the way for controversial offshore centres for processing applications. Daniel sandford, Bbc News. I can now speak to tim naor hilton, chief executive of refugee action. Thank you very much for speaking to us on Bbc News. Straightforwardly, what is your reaction to this nationality and Borders Bill . Iii} nationality and Borders Bill . 70 Ears Nationality and Borders Bill . Ci years ago, Britain Nationality and Borders Bill . 721 years ago, britain was nationality and Borders Bill . 72 years ago, britain was contributing to drafting the Refugee Convention that would provide Support And Safety and protection to people fleeing persecution, war and human rights abuses, and now, we are seeing ministers ripping it up right before our eyes. This is an extreme anti refugee bill. It is against decency, it is against passion. It criminalises refugees and it is also against international law and it does not do what the government is saying that it needs to do. There is nothing in there about commitment to safe routes. People make these terrible dangerous journeys because there are no safe routes into this country and this bill does not answer those questions. What a lot of Eole Answer those questions. What a lot of people will answer those questions. What a lot of people will not answer those questions. What a lot of people will not understand answer those questions. What a lot of people will not understand is of people will not understand is what could be the objection to saying that if you pass through a safe country, and otherwise a country that is deemed safe internationally, a country lets say like italy, france or germany, that you should not claim Asylum Birth first rather than waiting for when you come here in this country. People will not understand why this is an unreasonable thing to say. We are is an unreasonable thing to say. 7 are looking at people who are fleeing war, human rights abuses in their country. When people flee their country. When people flee their countries, they are looking for homes, safety and they are looking to be able to rebuild their lives. What we see a lot of people coming to this country, who have family and friends connections here, they may be speak the language. Maybe there is a historical connection. We have to remember that most people dont come to this country once they have arrived in europe. Three times as many people end up in france, four times as many in germany, three times as many in spain but the few that do come here have got links and connections and i think that we would all understand that people want to create a new home for themselves rather than just simply getting out of a war zone. Though is your argument that this is a sneaky way of reducing the numbers of applicants because almost nobody gets to this country without coming through another country first . Absolutely. And there are no safe routes into this country, so we are calling for the government to establish systems of humanitarian visas, to increase routes a Family Reunion and to commit to a Resettlement Programme, a refugee Resettlement Programme, a refugee Resettlement Programme, a refugee Resettlement Programme of 10,000 people a year in order to meet our international obligations. Right now i was standing on the international stage is shrinking. We are not playing our role in helping people who are seeking Safety And Protection from human rights abuses and persecution. Protection from human rights abuses and persecution. Thank you very much for speaking and persecution. Thank you very much for speaking to and persecution. Thank you very much for speaking to us. Now its time for a look at the weather. Well, it certainly feels like summer is on hold. Further showers expected through the rest of today and into tomorrow and the reason for it is this low pressure, which swept across the country earlier on today. It brought some really quite heavy rain and some strong winds to southern areas. In the second half of the day, the more persistent rain is around Eastern Scotland and the North East of england. Elsewhere, it is a mixture of areas of cloud and the showers come and go as well. That will continue into the evening hours and overnight. It is not going to be a cold night, temperatures in the south around 13 or 14 degrees, not far off that in scotland as well. So, tomorrow, we will call it a day of sunny spells and showers. Some of the showers could be heavy almost anywhere. There could be some cracks of thunder but i think most of the time, most of the day, the weather should be dry. More sunshine tomorrow, so feeling a little bit warmer too. Hello, this is Bbc News. The headlines a man is found guilty of the murder of sisters Nicole Smallman and Bibaa Henry in a north London Park injune 2020.

Its Womens Quarterfinals day at wimbledon, with the World Number one Ash Barty on Centre Court this afternoon thats the last of the matches to seal the final four for this years championships. There was a Surprise Result at the start of the day in the mens draw. Chetan pathak is there for us now. Before we get an update on todays matches, weve heard from Emma Raducanu, whos spoken after being forced to retire in her last 16 match last night. What has she had to say . Yes, late drama last night when Emma Raducanu was forced to retire 3 1 down in the second set. She went to receive medical treatment and it did not return put up the official line was brooding micro breathing difficulties. And in the last couple of hours she has been speaking to sue barker and seemed in good spirits, smiling again, she explained again it was an issue with her breathing and medical advisers encouraged her not to continue so she followed that advice and she also had no issues with that they schedule it with some questioning why she was on it so late on Court Number one.

In todays action, an upset in the mens and pliskova looked devastating. Pliskova looked absolutely outstanding for top level get that surprise at the weight because medvedev is out and no one really saw this one coming. Only won one match since april where he won the Miami Masters, in between that and wimbledon. Across the five sets, he will play Roger Federer tomorrow in the quarterfinals. Les talk about the quarterfinals. Les talk about the Womens Quarterfinals because three of the four are done and dusted. Ons jabeur is out, she had beaten Venus Williams and other grand slam champions, but sabalenka the player to knock about in The End, probably the best player in the Womens Tournament has yet to win a grand slam. Now she goes into the semifinals, so a really good win for her, 6 4, 6 3. You mentioned pliskova, that is who she will play next, pliskova beating Viktorija Golubic. Pliskova has now reached the semifinals here, as she has at all other grand slams and someone else was looking absolutely incredible is Angelique Herbert, another one of the wimbledon stories that looks to have come from nowhere. Angelique kerber won the title in 2018 and she has won one of the title since then, but her Grass Court Record is outstanding and she was too good for karolina muchova, playing the second wimbledon only, and she will play the winner of the match currently on Centre Court, Thatis Match currently on Centre Court, that is the World Number one Ashleigh Barty, the australian in action there at the moment. Many peoples favourites and she iS Playing Ajla Tomljanovic who came through that match against Emma Raducanu last night was that they are both warming up on Centre Court at the moment, potentially mouthwatering semifinal between Angelique Herbert and Ashleigh Barty.

The italians have been one of the stand out sides so far and are one of the favourites to win the tournament.

She is pictured here with the former Health Secretary matt hancock, they resign from theirjobs after they were photographed in an intimate embrace in the Health Secretarys office. Labour has asked the house to investigate and they have confirmed that Lord Bethell being invited for use of facilities and therefore we will get doubtless a result on that in due course about that investigation prompted by a complaint from the labour party. Around A Thousand more babies would survive each year in england if Maternity Services were as safe as those in sweden, according to a group of mps. The health and social Care Committee says a lack of staff, and a Blame Culture which prevents lessons from being learned, are significantly hindering Maternity Services. And improvements in those Maternity Services. The committee asked an independent Expert Panel to assess how well the government is meeting its targets to improve Maternity Services. Professor Damejane Dacre chaired the panel and joins us now. Thank you very much for being with us on Bbc News. Just in terms of that rating, you said i think that the government, this was a case where there was room for improvement, but at the moment that some of the areas broadly require improvement but some areas were inadequate. Can you explain a bit about what your findings were and what informed them . Yes. About what your findings were and what informed them . About what your findings were and what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the chair what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the chair of what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the chair of an what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the chair of an expert what informed them . Yes, thank you. I was the chair of an Expert Panel i was the chair of an Expert Panel that was commissioned by the health and social Care Committee to look at government pledges into maternity. So we selected four pledges, those were Maternity Safety, continuity of care, having a personalised Care And Support plan and safe staffing. We found that overall, sifting through evidence, both statistics, published evidence, both statistics, published Evidence And Evidence from round tables and focus groups, that the Governments Ability to meet the pledges that it has made had a score of requires improvement. That is on a scale of outstanding being the best score, through good, through requires improvement and through inadequate. So the overall score suggested that it was at the level of requires improvement. You are sa in of requires improvement. You are saying that of requires improvement. You are saying that there of requires improvement. You are saying that there is of requires improvement. You are saying that there is a of requires improvement. You are saying that there is a target of requires improvement. You are saying that there is a target of. Of requires improvement. You are| saying that there is a target of the government had by 2025 halving the rate of stillbirths, the progress towards it is ongoing obviously and we will know for certain is we get nearer that date, but that you are concerned that it is not consistent in different parts of the country. Yes, absolutely. So there is progress, progress has definitely been made. We could not demonstrate that the progress has been made in response to the government improvements, but the thing that really worried as was the patchiness around the country was actually the patchiness between different groups of women. So women from minority ethnic or disadvantaged groups had much worse outcomes than women who were better off, so although there is progress overall, and there is good progress overall, we felt that it still required improvement because it is not a level playing field for women from minority groups or disabled women. find Field for women from minority groups or disabled women. Field for women from minority groups or disabled women. And until we know wh that or disabled women. And until we know why that is. Or disabled women. And until we know why that is, presumably or disabled women. And until we know why that is, presumably that or disabled women.

There was one other thing that came across to the same level . There was one other thing that came across that| other thing that came across that was really stark across all of the areas that we looked out, all the four areas, and that is the perception that safe staffing levels have not been reached. Again, the statistics around this are complicated, but overall, if you speak to midwives and obstetricians in hospital trusts, their view is that they are understaffed and that they have not got the right staff with the right skills in the right place at the right time. And so efforts to put that right really important to improving safety, even further. , important to improving safety, even further. ,. ,. ,. , important to improving safety, even further. ,. ,.

There is a lot of Concern Being raised about the quality of Maternity Services, not least because of a series of really terrible issues in different parts of the country which exposed it in some cases pubs that go back years. There is currently a concern about nottingham, we are ready have a case for east kent, staffordshire. What measures can you offer expectant mothers, those who expect to be mothers, those who expect to be mothers and fathers . What reassurances . Mothers and fathers . What reassurances .

What came across is the passion of those working the passion of those working Maternity Services to provide a good service and improve the service they were currently giving, and so it highlight and whether our difficulties will definitely lead to improvements. Some of the pledges that the department have made are absolutely essential to improving Quality And Safety of care of women, but where the problems lay was in the enactment of those pledges, so it those pledges reaching the Front Line. So support for those pledges reaching the Front Line and those vulnerable women, particularly from minority groups, is absolutely crucial and it is something that i hope will change very rapidly following both our in Depth Report and the select Committee Report into Maternity Safety. And the select Committee Report into Maternity Safety Maternity Safety. Thank you very much.

New guidance for the Double Jabbed from the 16th Of August as the government continues to relax Covid Restrictions in england. The owner of vauxhall has announced plans to invest A Hundred Million pounds in its factory in Ellesmere Port, saving more than A Thousand jobs. The plant in cheshire will make a new fleet of electric cars and vans, as our Business Correspondent Theo Leggett reports. For years, dark clouds have been hanging over the box Vauxhall Plant at Ellesmere Port. But now, at last, the workforce has a reason be cheerful. Parent company says it plans to invest £100 Million preparing the factory to build a new range of electric vans as well as Passenger Versions of the same models. We are offering Ellesmere Port plant, vauxhall and the british Automotive Industry a new era of all electric Vehicle Manufacturing and a sustainable future. The new investment is badly needed, the factory currently makes an old version of the Vauxhall Astra but it is outdated and because of the governments plan to outlaw the sale of new Petrol And Diesel cars by 2030, its replacement will be built elsewhere. So why vans . The increase in home deliveries, which has only grown during the pandemic, means things like this are selling very well at the moment but on top of that, increasing Emissions Regulations in towns and cities across europe means demand for this kind of vehicle is only going to grow and the Parent Company thinks that is good business. But this investment comes at a price. Bosses made it clear Uk Production would need support from the Uk Government. That support is thought to be worth tens of millions of pounds. Every country in the world that has advanced manufacturing, all their governments are having the kinds of conversations we are having, it is a competitive situation and we are absolutely prepared to help investment in the uk or britishjobs and for our economy. The News Today follows last Weeks Announcement by nissan of a much larger investment in electric Car Production at its plant in sunderland. But experts say much more is needed if the Uk Industry is to remain competitive. The hard fact is whilst this is a really great start, we need much more investment like this in the Uk Car industry if it to survive. And batteries and gigafactories or what it is all about, because the Car Industry will ultimately move to where the batteries are made. Nevertheless, with uncertainty over Trading Conditions after brexit now out of the way, automotive manufacturers are clearly happier to invest in the uk. And the outlook for the industry here seems brighter than it has for several years. Theo leggett, Bbc News. Campaigners are at the High Court to support a woman with down syndrome whos trying to get a change to abortion laws. At the moment, a pregnancy can be terminated up to full term in england, scotland and wales if the foetus has down syndrome most other Abortions Cant take place beyond 24 weeks. Heidi crowter says the law discriminates against people who could have gone on to lead full and happy lives, like her and her husband. Frankie mccamley reports. Sorry, my love surrounded by friends, family and supporters, today Heidi Crowter is taking on the government. Here we are at the High Court, to challenge the downright discrimination. She wants to challenge the law that makes abortion legal up until birth if the foetus has a disability, including down syndrome. Joining her, parents who have children with disabilities. Some say they felt pressured into an abortion. The whole language sets the tone, you know, my baby was referred to as a chromosomal abnormality. Hes 17 this summer and im immersed in Maternity Care now and im seeing it day in, day out. Women being told, even, do you want to take the Baby Home . I mean, this is 2021 in the uk. And a familiar face also here to offer her support. I think its really important that people with disabilities take this, women with disabilities in particular, take this argument forward. Because i am pro choice, but i also believe that everyone should be equal under the law. Back at home in coventry, heidi recently celebrated Herfirst Wedding Anniversary with husband james. She says she lives life to the full. We are someone who has down syndrome, and we want to say to the world that we have a good quality of life. Heidis legal team have raised over £100,000 to take on the government in this landmark test case. It is after around 90 of women who find out their foetuses have down syndrome choose to have an abortion. But some experts say this isnt a decision thats taken lightly. Were Talking About a relatively small number of abortions every year that take place after 24 weeks. These are incredibly challenging, heartbreaking circumstances, involving often very, very much wanted pregnancies where women have to make really tough decisions and i think to imply that somehow those decisions are made flippantly or casually is incredibly offensive to the women involved. The case will be heard at the high Court Today and tomorrow. Frankie mccamley, Bbc News. The artist Damien Hirst, famous for his bisected cow, shark in Formaldehyde And Diamond studded skull, has changed tack. His new exhibition is of oil paintings of cherry blossom. The show in paris has been delayed twice because of covid, but has finally opened today, showcasing canvases painted during long periods working alone during lockdown. Our Paris Correspondent Lucy Williamson was given a preview. As shocking as a dead animal or a diamond studded skull in the eyes of the artist. As much about life and death. Damien hirst has been painting cherry trees, dozens upon dozens of them, all the way through the pandemic. Much of it alone, without his team of assistants, thanks to Covid Restrictions. Itjust became a really solitary thing, making art, which ive never really got it to that point except when i was very young. So it was quite nice to do that, and then trying to find some positivity in all the negativity and all the anxiety that everybody is feeling. In the beginning i was really anxious, but its funny that in that anxiety, i made these paintings that are really positive. The canvases got larger in lockdown, he says. Leaves appeared and shifts in perspective gave more gravity to the trees. I rememberjohn lennon once said, somebody said to him, why did he cut his hair in the 70s . And he said, well, what else would you do after you have grown it . It kind of feels something like that, i always just try to keep reinventing myself. Yeah. My mum used to say to me, theres enough horror in the world, cant you just paint flowers . Maybe she got to me eventually. Flowers that are in his Words garish, messy, almost tacky. Someone who saw them the other day asked me if i was in love, hirst told me, but i hope theyre more psychotic than that. Lucy williamson, Bbc News, paris. Jane will be here shortly with the news at 5. Shell be speaking to Professor Adam Finn of Thejoint Committee on vaccination and immunisation among others and then and at 5. 30, well be putting your questions to our Health Correspondent and a virologist on what the proposed changes in england might mean for you. I dont know about Damien Hirst being in paris, he is probably happier to be there than in england with the weather. What is the weather looking like, thomas . A little grey out there for some of us today and it has been raining quite heavily in some parts of the country. Here is the headline for the next few days, sunny spells, yes, but scattered showers. You can see the heavy Rain Shower Icon there. Essentially, it remains fairly unsettled. Here is the low pressure from last night. You can see spiralling across the uk. Propelled by this Big Dip in the jet stream, this big trough we call it, and that is driving the unsettled weather. As long as that big trough is over the uk, the weather will remain showery. It will indeed remain so across the country. Here is the radar showing the rain from the North East, further south we have got showers, they are affecting the South East so wimbledon could catch one or two and there will be further showers in the forecast for tomorrow as well. Through the second half of today, the most persistent rain in the North East here. To the south, west of the uk, a cluster of showers coming in carried by quite a strong breeze. It is still quite windy in the south, even into this evening. Fairly breezy at least. Not much changes through the night. Lots of clear spells around but also a scattering of showers. 14 in the south, around 13 in the north. So not a particularly cold night. Here is the Weather Map for the middle of the week, for wednesday, the low pressure around the northern isles, theres another Weather Front crossing the country. That is going to spark off some showers as well. Generally, a fair bit of cloud around but also i think some decent sunny spells around as well. But notice the showers here. Almost anywhere across the country. Some of them could be heavy, thundery, but because there is more sunshine around on wednesday, the temperatures will be a little bit higher. Thursday a similar day. More Dry Weather around on thursday, again, with temperatures in the low 20s. Not exactly exhilarating for the rest of this week but i guess it could be worse. Here is our outlook into the weekend. Another little area of low pressure affects the south of the country, bringing some outbreaks of rain. Cant guarantee Dry Weather anywhere over the weekend. Cool, Summer Weather for the rest of the week into the weekend with, as we say, a chance of showers. Brolly to hand just in case. This is Bbc News. Im jane hill.
