Local authorities across england Say they face a £3 billion shortfall in their budgets over the next three years. The Olympic Flame arrives in tokyo, two weeks before the games. But no spectators are allowed. And as anticipation continues to build for the Euro 2020 final, well be hearing from some of the players ahead of england vs italy. Welcome to bbc news. Metropolitan Police Officer Wayne couzens has pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to the murder of Sarah Everard. The 33 year old disappeared as she walked home in clapham in South London in march This year. Her body was found a week later in woodland near ashford in kent. The head of the Metropolitan Police, Cressida Dick, said outside court she was � sickened and angered by the crimes committed by couzens. Our special Correspondent Lucy manning is at the Old Bailey, and she gave us an update on what happened in Court Today and what the reaction was. Well, Sarah Everards murder was one that chilled the entire country, and it resonated with Women Everywhere. But most importantly, it devastated her family. And her family were in Court Today to hear Wayne Couzens appear via Video Link from Belmarsh Prison. And he said the word guilty, when asked whether he murdered Sarah Everard. His lawyer said he felt genuine remorse and guilt, and that would be a burden for his whole life. But the real burden is for the Everard Family, who have lost a daughter, sarah, who they said brought them so much joy. What happened to Sarah Everard is what every woman fears the fear of walking home alone. Sarah was just walking home, and that night, the life that she hadnt fully lived, the 33 years of bringing Pride And Joy to herfamily, ended. The man responsible Wayne Couzens, a policeman, also a kidnapper, rapist and murderer, abusing his Police Promise to uphold the law. He broke it in the most brutal way. Farfrom protecting sarah, the only danger she faced that night was couzens himself. We can now report more about what happened to sarah. Three days before she disappeared, Wayne Couzens reserved a Vauxhall Astra Hire car in kent. On the 3rd Of March, at 7am, he finished his shift protecting embassies and collected the car. That same evening, the last picture of sarah buying a bottle of wine before heading to Herfriends House in clapham. Around nine that evening, she started to walk home, calling her boyfriend on the way. Just after 9 30, on poynders road, a Bus Camera shows the Vauxhall Astra parked on the pavement with Hazard Lights flashing. Two people are standing next to it. Three minutes later, the car is pictured with the two front doors open. The Hire Car then heads out of london to kent, and its returned at 8 30 in the morning. This is where sarah was last seen. When couzens was arrested, he lied and lied. He claimed he owed money to an eastern European Gang for underpaying a prostitute, and they threatened his family and ordered him to deliver them another girl. He admitted Kidnapping Sarah but said he had handed her over, alive and unharmed, to the gang when they stopped his car on the way out of london. The truth was that couzens raped and murdered the 33 year old, hiding her body deep in the Kent Countryside so it took a week to find her remains. As met Police Officers searched, the murderer was in their ranks. Two days after hed kidnapped sarah, couzens had bought two builders bags at b q. Her body was found in one. Couzens lived 30 miles away in deal, married with two children a man who served in the territorial army, in the Civil Nuclear Constabulary. And two and a half years before Killing Sarah, he joined the met police. Shame on you, shamel on you, shame on you questions for the force how could he have been cleared to carry a gun when he would go on to kill . And questions about what officers did when couzens was reported for exposing himself twice, in a Takeaway Restaurant just days before the murder. Could he have been stopped . The Ashen Faced metropolitan commissioner spoke to the Everard Family This morning to Say how sorry she was for their loss. All of us in the met are sickened, angered and devastated by This mans crimes. They are dreadful. And everyone in policing feels betrayed. The murder of one woman resonated with thousands of others demands that the streets must be safe, violence against women must stop, Harassment And Abuse must be taken more seriously. The Everard Family had one wish that sarah would come home safely. But a policeman took her future away. Lucy manning, bbc news. The Metropolitan Police commissioner looked shaken when she came out of court to make that statement. There are serious questions for her force and other officers as well. What exactly happened to that vetting of Wayne Couzens when he joined the met . We know he was vetted in his previousjob of guarding Nuclear Power Stations. Was he vetted again when he joined the met . And serious questions about that Indecent Exposure. What happened to that investigation . It was three days before he kidnapped sarah, it was the very day that he booked his Hire Car. And we now understand from the Police Regulator that there was another indecent Exposure Allegation in 2015 in kent. So, what did Kent Police do about that . More than anything, Sarah Everards family want to know what happened to her, because Wayne Couzens, although he has pleaded guilty, still has not given the police any information. He only told them a fake story. He will be sentenced in september. That was Lucy Manning reporting there from the Old Bailey. Following that guilty plea from Wayne Couzens, The Independent office of Police Complaints has published an update in investigations into new Police Complaints connected to Sarah Everards death. In total, the iopc has served 12 gross Misconduct Or Misconduct notices on Police Officers from several forces. They include an investigation into alleged met police failures to investigate two allegations of Indecent Exposure linked to Pc Couzens in london in february 2021. An investigation into alleged Kent Police failures to investigate an indecent Exposure Incident linked to Pc Couzens in kent in 2015. And an investigation into allegations that officers from a number of forces breached standards of professional behaviour while sharing information linked to the prosecution of Pc Couzens via a messaging app. Our Home Editor Mark easton is here.

The list including the list in the Eye Seat was another investigation, three officers have been served with Gross Misconduct notices over the sharing of what they call an inappropriate graphic on Social Media. In a way, i think that that allegation, we dont know what This inappropriate graphic was, but clearly there has been a lot of Pressure on the Metropolitan Police and police more generally over a culture of misogyny. A culture of racism, a culture of corruption, as we have heard. And i think that that is where the police are at their most vulnerable in relation to This. But their reputation, if it is thought that there is a culture that does not take things as seriously as they should, in This case. I would make the point that actually the investigation into Sarah Everards murder was thorough and professional, they achieved, they saw through Wayne Couzenss lies quickly and achieved a guilty plea on all charges. This was the relatively speedy conviction that everybody wanted. But as that list of investigations that the iopc has been doing illustrates, and indeed questions about the vetting of Wayne Couzens, who was a Firearms Officer, parliamentary and diplomatic protection duties, that is where the police are more vulnerable. In terms of the culture that goes on. Whether treating the crime as seriously as they should have done . The two counts of Indecent Exposure that you mentioned, that matter still under investigation from february involving Metropolitan Police officers. Did they take that seriously enough . To officers.

To Add Insult to i injury for many people, when women did guard protesting to try to reclaim the streets, as it was called, one of the movements involved, there was criticism of how the police managed those events. Indeed, the Sarah Everard feature on clapham common, there was a lot of criticism for the way the Metropolitan Police arrested women and dragged them away in handcuffs. It was regarded as unnecessary use of force. The review into the operations of that to exonerate the Metropolitan Police, it did exonerate them. Fine awful lot of women, it seems to be symptomatic of a force that did not take crimes against women seriously enough. The Metropolitan Police can Say that This was one officer who did This, you cannot Say that all officers are corrupt. And that has never been said. But when you add up the institutional Corruption Allegations or findings that came out of the daniel morgan report, when yOu Look at the criticism of how the deaths of Bebe Henry and Nicole Smallman, two black women were investigated compared with the Murder Investigation for Sarah Everard, it starts to build a picture that people will Say there is a contextual problem here. Ultimately, the most important contextual problem here. Ultimately, the most important thing contextual problem here. Ultimately, the most important thing is the most important thing is retaining public Confidence And Trust in the police. We have a system of policing by consent in This country, we dont generally have armed officers for instance, thatis have armed officers for instance, that is the way we like to do it. And that requires there to be a trusting relationship between the public and the police. In fact, there has been a decline in some measures of Confidence And Trust over the last few years, but nothing very, very significant. And i do think that that will be the real question can the police retain broad public Confidence And Trust after, as you Say, This raft of scandals and problems. Because if they lose that, then we really are in deep trouble. For they lose that, then we really are in deep trouble. They lose that, then we really are in deep trouble.

Felicia willow is the Chief Executive of the fawcett society, a charity that campaigns for gender equality. Thank you very much forjoining us. First of all, lets look at This issue of keeping women safe. We saw all of those protests, women demanding the right to be safe on the streets. What has changed since Sarah Everards death .

Other than that, i would not Say that we have seen a huge amount of change. I think what happened after Sarahs Murder was This enormous outpouring of stories, of grief, This fear that women feel every day. And it is still not being taken seriously. I think that is really the main message is that we need to take This seriously. Your previous guest talked about a culture of misogyny within the police, i would Say we have a culture of misogyny throughout our entire society. And we need to address that head on so that we dont have women feeling This way constantly all the time. It is just not ok. 50 constantly all the time. It is ust not ok. , constantly all the time.

It| lot more convoluted than that. It begins with Gender Stereotypes. Fawcett figure major project into Gender Stereotypes last year which revealed Gender Stereotypes start in a very early age is that we have to be addressing male violence against women and girls, the fact that it is built on these Gender Stereotypes which are embedded in children, very young children and a very young age. It will take significant effort to really start changing that narrative, changing how men and boys see women and girls and really recognising that This is a massive problem. It is something i think people like to dismiss, to laugh off, to Say equality, inequality is a thing of the past. Actually we have seen male violence against women be really endemic in the society. Jess phillips mp read out the names of all the women being murdered by men on international womens day, i think you are not 118 names. I think in the midst of This, i think we need to recognise that Sarah Everards murder was one of many women who have been murdered by men and that we have to do something about This, we need to take it seriously. About This, we need to take it seriously about This, we need to take it seriousl. �. ,. ,. , seriously. And many of those deaths will be at the seriously.

We still have a massive Pay Gap between men and women, we still see This endemic violence against women and girls, we see women in every walk of Life Experience Inequality Thatis Walk of Life Experience Inequality that is really unacceptable. We have just had a pandemic where the interest of women were completely not represented and so the inequality between men and women has increased during that period. As has all forms of inequality gotten worse. Feminism is a force that is needed now more than ever, and to be honest, what we need to see is solidarity. We need everybody to recognise This is a problem and work together. And to spend more time on addressing what is wrong rather than arguing about whaT Needs to be done. We need to take action and work together on This. It is we need to take action and work together on This. Together on This. It is not ust a womans problem. I together on This.

I think a lot of men do understand. I think a lot of men do understand. I think a lot of men do understand. I think they dont know what they need to do. We are talking about Gender Stereotypes, we need to be talking to boys and a very young age but also to girls was that we need to be working with teachers, with early years providers, obviously the government, even people who Market Products to children and the messages they are sending to parents. Following those stages. And throughout life, recognising these different messages being sent and questioning some of that. As you Say, we know that Gender Stereotypes, the reason that suicide is a no. 1 of death in men under a5, thatis is a no. 1 of death in men under a5, that is not a good thing for men. These things need to be addressed, and having equality between men and women is something that is good for everyone. I think it does need Effort And Attention at every level, and there are things that every man can do to get involved to recognise what is Going On, to open their eyes, to listen to women about their experiences and what they see and to take the action they can to change The World, to change our society. Felicity, thank you very much. Bookings for holidays and flights to Amber List destinations have surged after it was announced yesterday that Uk Residents who are fully vaccinated will no longer need to quarantine on their return to england or Northern Ireland. Immigration officials have said the governmenT Needs to warn passengers there will be long queues at the Uk Border as international travel continues to open up. 0ur Transport Correspondent Caroline Davis reports. International travel is opening up. If you have been fully vaccinated in The Uk, soon, you wonT Need to quarantine if you travel from an Amber List country. The announcement seems to have been enough to persuade some to start booking. Within an hour of the announcement, we saw a 53 increase in traffic to skyscanner, following the same time the day before. And that isjust, i mean, a clear sign of the huge appetite that there is for travel. The policy will start on the 19th Ofjuly in england and the 26th Ofjuly in Northern Ireland. Scotland and wales are yet to Say whether they will do the same thing. More passengers will be welcome for the travel industry, but there are worries about queues like these, seen early in the year too. 0ne Union has already warned it will be impossible to prevent even longer queues without more resources. The place to expect queues are at the airport you are coming from. Once you get back to The Uk, all of that is starting to be automated. The real backlog would potentially be at the place you leave from, rather than when you get back to The Uk. People should expect, i think, more disruption than usual, but i know everyone is working very hard to minimise those cues. But i know everyone is working very hard to minimise those queues. Some will be left out passengers will still need to buy tests, which will price some out of going abroad. Many under 30s are still not fully vaccinated, and the policy currently only applies to those who have been jabbed in The Uk. Aria lives in The Uk but had both of her vaccines in america, so the old amber rules, including the need to quarantine, will still apply to her. I just want to see my family. It is really hard, i had an approved vaccine, butjust because they were administered in the us, i am treated completely differently. Other countries have already started accepting Vaccination Certificates from Around The World. How difficult would it be for The Uk to accept other Countries Vaccination certificates . If we look at countries in the european bloc, we have digital Vaccination Certificates being issued, and it is also important that The Uk is able to accept non digital certificates as well. There are many countries Around The World issuing certification in paper form. And there are countries accepting that, so no reason The Uk cannot in the early days. The government has said that it hopes to have some news on recognising people vaccinated in the eu in a couple of weeks. For some, foreign skies are a little closer. For others, they seem as far away as ever. Caroline davis, bbc news. And coming up in a few minutes, well be answering your questions on all things travel related. Well be joined by Simon Calder, Travel Correspondent for The Independent, and lisa minot, Travel Editor of the sun. Thats at 2. 30pm. We are well provided for. The coronavirus reproduction number, or r value, in england has increased slightly and is between 1. 2 to 1. 5, according to the latest government figures. Last week, it was between 1. 1 and 1. 3. R represents the average number of people each covid 19 positive person goes on to infect. When the figure is above one, an outbreak can grow exponentially but when it is below one, it means the epidemic is shrinking. The Nhs Covid Contact Tracing app used in england and wales may need to become less sensitive as restrictions change. The Transport Secretary Grant shapps has said The End of Social Distancing on 19thjuly may mean the app needs to change. Theres been a huge rise in alerts as infections surge. Our health correspondent Jim Reed has more. Its the alert you really dont want to get. 350,000 pings like This were sent in the last week ofjune, telling Smartphone Users in england they have been near someone who later tested positive for covid. This Climbing Centre in surrey had to close This week after 13 of its staff were pinged and couldnt come into work. It really just escalated to the point where we ended up with probably only two Staff Members that were available, so we had to act very quickly obviously. So whats been the Knock On Effect for the business as a whole . I dont even know whats going to happen for the future, but theres an immediate impact on the basis were losing income again. And its going to hurt. The Nhs Covid App uses bluetooth technology, a Data Signal that can work out roughly how far your phone is from another device and for what length of time. An algorithm then calculates how risky that contact is. Above a certain level, and you get told so self isolate above a certain level, and you get told to self isolate for Up To ten days. But unlike a call from test and trace, that instruction has always been advisory. An update to the app later This month could make that more explicit, then from mid August Anyone double jabbed in england will be able to avoid Self Isolation completely. But the recent spike in covid cases is already leading to a sharp increase in smartphone alerts. Ministers have suggested the app may be tweaked, perhaps allowing users to stay closer to a positive case for longer, before they are pinged. Its in the interest of us as a society to carry on doing the things which help protect Each Other. And we will make sure the app is reviewed so it is appropriate for the period of time we are living through, particularly now as we are getting into the majority of adults having been double vaccined. Labour Says any attempt to change the way the app works could be counterproductive. This feels like taking the batteries out of the Smoke Detector and that is never a good idea, i that is an important protection. Im equally worried by the fact that, driven, i think, by the likely high numbers told to self isolate, people, the stories of people deleting the app altogether. Ministers Say there is no real evidence that people are deleting the app en masse. A downing Street Source Says people in england are still being encouraged to isolate if they get that ping.

And for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. Good afternoon. It isa it is a very busy time for sport at the moment. The first of the mens Semi Finals is under way At Wimbledon. Italian Matteo Berrettini has taken the first set against Polands Hubert Hurkacz neither player has reached the final of a Grand Slam before. And following them, its World Number one Novak Djokovic against Denis Shapovalov. Well, Chetan Pathak is At Wimbledon for us hows This first Semi Final going chetan . It is all going the way of Matteo Berrettini at the moment. Hubert hurkacz has had two fantastic results at these championships, knocking out second Seed Daniil Medvedev and then Roger Federer in straight sets in the quarterfinals. He has struggled in This semifinal so far against Matteo Berrettini. Im not sure berrettini has had to bring his best, so many errors from hurkacz, including when he was trying to hang in in the first set and a mistake in The End handed berrettini the first set 6 3. This match is very much in danger of running away from the 14th Seed Hurkacz at the moment. His serve which has been so good and consistent in these championships seems to have deserted him. He has got his net play completely wrong, some Drop Shots hes going for fall for no reason at all, and we know the Power Berrettini has on the serve and the forehand. Im not Saying berrettini has been immaculate in This match so far. Frankly, he has not had to be, and hurkacz will have to get his head in the right place pretty soon or he will find himself out of This championships pretty quickly. 5 0 down in the second set, clearly not happy with the way things are going. Hurkacz hasnt been past the second round of any Grand Slam. Still a monumental achievement to reach the semifinals of wimbledon but it is not going his way at the moment, evenif not going his way at the moment, even if that challenge has at least gone his way and got the crowd excited. They want to see more sets, because after This match we are going to see the World Number one, defending champion, Novak Djokovic. Who can stop him . Denis shapovalov who he will face later today. Djokovic has that sense of a man who is embracing his destiny, who really believes he can now win wimbledon and make it three slams in a row This year going into the olympics and then the Us Open which he is chasing, that golden slam, which no man has done in Tennis History by winning all four majors and olympic gold. Shapovalov has beaten andy murray, roberto bautista agut, philipp kohlschreiber, he has had some five set tussles along the way, shapovalov, he has a great all round game, but djokovic is the greatest return in the history of tennis, such a brilliant problem solver on the court. It seems really hard who will stop him but at least we have three new semifinalists At Wimbledon. I will tell you too that former champion Gordon Reid in the Wheelchair Singles has just won a great three setter on court 17 behind us, beating Gustavo Fernandez in three sets, so into the final he goes. Another british person in the final to go with england over the weekend. Chetan pathak, At Wimbledon for us. The full England Squad is expected to take part in training at St Georges Park today, as the countdown continues to Sundays Euro 2020 final against italy. Some of the players were put through a more gentle stretching Programme Yesterday, after the exertions of Wednesday Nights Semi Final win over denmark. But, of course, they dont have long to recover. With only two days until kick off at wembley. Were expecting to hear from some of the players in the next hour or so. As for the italians, theyre still at their base near florence, before they fly to London Tomorrow. Away from the football now. Nick kyrgios has pulled out of the olympic games, after it was announced therell be no fans allowed at any venues in tokyo. He said the thought of playing in front of empty stadiums just didnt sit right, although he stressed he hadnt made the decision lightly and that it had always been his dream to represent australia at an olympics. He also said hell take the time out to work on some minor health issues and didnt want to take a place away from a healthy athlete. Well, the Olympic Flame has arrived in tokyo but the public was kept away from a very low Key Ceremony. The decision to ban spectators from events in the capital, was made after tokyo was placed in a State Of Emergency. Thatll run throughout the games which start in two weeks time. There may be some fans allowed at venues outside tokyo and a decision on the paralympics will be made after the olympics. Tyson fury� s third fight against Deontay Wilder has been postponed after Tyson Fury tested positive for coronavirus. They were due to make in Las Vegas in two weeks time but he returned the positive Test Yesterday and after discussions with medical experts the decision was made to call off the fight.

Tyson fury beat Deontay Wilder. You said it was busy, martin not sure about the kissing. Thank you. The extent of financial Pressures facing councils across The Uk as they emerge from the pandemic has been revealed in a special bbc investigation. Analysis of 171 authorities has found that councils hit by Falling Income and increased costs are set to make at least £1. 7 billion worth of savings over the next year while also using more than £500 million worth of reserves to balance their books. Ten struggling councils in england are set to offset or borrow £290 million after being given exceptional permission from the ministry of housing, communities local government to try to remedy what it called their � unmanageable Pressures�. But despite making savings, local authorities are currently predicting a £3 billion shortfall in their budgets by The End of 2024. A spokesman for the ministry of housing, communities and local government pointed to £12 billion given to local authorities during the pandemic, and said in coming months the government would take stock of the demands they faced and decide a timetable for funding changes. Councillor Peter Fleming is a conservative councillor for sevenoa ks District Council. He is also the innovation improvement Board Chairman for the local government association. Councillor fleming, thank you for joining us. What is the shortfall in your authority . Your authority . Good afternoon. Local government, your authority . Good afternoon. Local government, as your authority . Good afternoon. Local government, as you your authority . Good afternoon. I local government, as you possibly know, is a fairly complex mix across the country and This research looks at upper tier authorities, those authorities that have adult Social Care to children� s services, two of the highest Demand Led services and areas that local government has for areas that local government has for a long time been calling on government to fund fully. I think for authorities like mine we have seen Government Support during the Covid Pandemic in particularfor the immediate response that we made and also support to businesses in particular. I think what we are all looking at, This is across local government, and all different tiers of local government, is increasing Pressure-Pressures'>Pressure Pressures going forward. Once the pandemic hopefully is over we will still see those high demands. We will still see a reduction in those fees and charges that we charge, and we will still see people struggling to Play Dough might pay Council Tax and business rates. There is a funding that are really important to us at a time when we have seen a decade� s worth of reduction in grant from Central Government. Struggling to pay Council Tax. Government.

It is a huge amount of money at local government recognises that immediate support to Central Government put in but when we look at the other side of the coin, things such as reductions in fees and charges, and in terms of people� s ability to pay Council Tax, they are only funding a proportion of that going forward. I think where they decide to stop supporting councils around that is going to be key because i don� t think there will be a single Ticking Point in the Post Pandemic World with councils still picking up significant reductions in fees and charges but also in terms of other types of income that councils rely on duty of the reductions in Grant Funding that councils have seen, as i Say, for the last decade. Th councils have seen, as i Say, for the last decade. The last decade. In an ideal world, how much increase would you Say| how much increase would you Say is neededin how much increase would you Say is needed in Council Tax levels. . Government tends to talk about Council Spending Power and increasing Council Spending Power. I think it� s important to point out to your viewers that Spending Power increases are Government Code for your council will have This amount more money to spend if it puts up Council Tax to the maximum that we allow in law, that is capped by Central Government as well. I think government is starting to recognise that This is part of a wider debate about how local government is funded. What government� s expectations around how councils provide services, and hopefully This is a Tipping Point in a time when actually councils can be more responsive to how their local communities wish Council Services to be delivered going into the future. I think covid has really shone a light on the fact that actually locally provided services to communities is the way that we need to move ahead, rather than central command and control.

The Olympic Flame has arrived in tokyo in a low Key Ceremony without any crowds, two weeks before the opening of the games. Yesterday, japanese officials announced there would be no spectators at olympic venues because of the rise in covid cases. Our correspondent Rupet Wingfield hayes reports. This should have been a moment of high excitement, the start of the final leg of the olympic Torch Relay. Instead, the governor of tokyo This morning received the Olympic Flame in an empty arena. There will be no Torch Relay in tokyo. And as we found out last night, no spectators at the olympic games either. Translation hide night, no spectators at the olympic games either. Translation we are now faced with games either. Translation we are now faced with rising games either. Translation we are now faced with rising covid19 now faced with rising covid 19 infections. So we unfortunately have no other choice but to hold the games in a limited way. The problem now is the delta games in a limited way. The problem now is the delta Variant. Games in a limited way.

It has become very apparent in the last couple of weeks that because of that new Variant the current covid measures in force here in tokyo are no longer working.

So we need to find a way and we need to prove we need to find a way and we need to prove that we need to find a way and we need to prove that we can do it. And now it� s time for your questions answered. Hello. The transport secretary, grant shapps, has said that travellers who have had both doses of a Covid Vaccine will no longer need to quarantine when returning to england from an Amber List country. The new rules will come into force onjuly19th, a week on monday. This afternoon we are answering your questions on This, with our two guests. We have given them a season ticket, you could Say with me is Simon Calder, Travel Correspondent for The Independent. And also i� m joined by lisa minot, Travel Editor of the sun. Lovely to have you here again, two daysin lovely to have you here again, two days in a row. Thank you very much. Let� s start with simon. We have lots of questions from people who have been fully vaccinated asking about portugal, canada, switzerland. Question one is about travelling from spain. Karen plante asks simon, i� m trying to figure out what my mum needs to do to travel to The Uk from spain. She is british but a Spanish Resident and fully vaccinated there. That might be critical. We have an important funeral coming up at The End ofjuly and i� m confused about what she needs to do in order to be able to come. Can you help . Weill. Able to come. Can you help . Well, karen, able to come. Can you help . Well, karen. First able to come. Can you help . Well, karen. First of able to come. Can you help . Well, karen, first of all able to come. Can you help . Well, karen, first of all im able to come. Can you help . Well, karen, first of all im so able to come. Can you help . Well, karen, first of all im so sorry karen, first of all i� m so sorry about the reason for the trip and so sorry also to Say that your mother� s Vaccination Status is of no relevance to The Uk. The Transport Secretary Grant shapps speaking on Bbc Breakfast This morning said that he would be in a position to make a statement about possibly recognising European Union vaccinations in a couple of weeks. I think it is most unlikely there will be anything in place before the trip over from spain. So therefore she will need to comply with standard Amber List rules for medium risk that means a test, really any flavour, before she gets on the plane to britain, going straight into isolation in The Uk. There is a test required on day two and day eight for which she will have to book separately. She can also test to release after five days if there is a really important event like a funeral, then it is possible temporarily to leave Self Isolation. But i� m afraid the idea that she would be able to swerve quarantine completely, not at the moment. It is something that the Department For Transport is working on. There is quite a lot of surprise around europe and more widely Around The World because british Vaccination Certificates are recognised by dozens of countries. Certificates are recognised by dozens of countries. Thank you, simon. Dozens of countries. Thank you, simon lisa. Dozens of countries. Thank you, simon. Lisa, alan dozens of countries. Thank you, simon. Lisa, alan from dozens of countries. Thank you, simon. Lisa, alan from londonl dozens of countries. Thank you, simon. Lisa, alan from london Says, concerning the new rules on travel to amber countries, if you only want to amber countries, if you only want to do a weekend visit, how do you take a Destination Predeparture Test three days before returning to The Uk, if in that time you haven� t even left The Uk yet to arrive at your destination . Left The Uk yet to arrive at your destination . ,. , � , destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it is destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it is up destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it is Up To destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it is Up To three destination . Yes, thats very true. The rules Say it is Up To three daysj the rules Say it is Up To three days before the rules Say it is Up To three days before you the rules Say it is Up To three days before you return to The Uk. So i did a before you return to The Uk. So i did a trip before you return to The Uk. So i did a trip to before you return to The Uk. So i did a trip to portugal on the first day of did a trip to portugal on the first day of international travel in may and we day of international travel in may and we basically arrived to as we arrived and we basically arrived to as we arrived i and we basically arrived to as we arrived i was only staying one night arrived i was only staying one night as arrived i was only staying one night. As we arrived we took a lateral night. As we arrived we took a lateral Flow Test via a Video Interview with a government approved Provider Interview with a government approved provider and they provided us with a Certificate Provider and they provided us with a certificate that we could then take to obviously show when we came back into the to obviously show when we came back into the country the next day. It may into the country the next day. It may seem into the country the next day. It may seem slightly daft in that we had to may seem slightly daft in that we had to have a test to get into the country had to have a test to get into the country as had to have a test to get into the country as well, and that probably wasnt country as well, and that probably wasnt relevant, but it is a case of P Wasnt relevant, but it is a case of Up To wasnt relevant, but it is a case of Up To three wasnt relevant, but it is a case of Up To three days before we come back, Up To three days before we come back, so Up To three days before we come back, so you can take it at any point back, so you can take it at any point in back, so you can take it at any point in that time. Back, so you can take it at any point in that time. That makes a lot of sense, thank point in that time. That makes a lot of sense, thank you. Point in that time. That makes a lot of sense, thank you. Simon, point in that time. That makes a Lot L of sense, thank you. Simon, Malcolm Cowling in lincoln asks, does the covid Predeparture Test taken three days before returning to The Uk have to be a Pcr Test or can it be a lateral Flow Test . Tt to be a Pcr Test or can it be a lateral Flow Test . To be a Pcr Test or can it be a lateral Flow Test . It can be any flavour you lateral Flow Test . It can be any flavour you like, lateral Flow Test . It can be any flavour you like, really. Lateral Flow Test . It can be any| flavour you like, really. Lateral flavouryou like, really. Lateral flow is the obvious one to go for. You can go for a more expensive and cumbersome and slow test like the Pcr Test if you want to. But personally, i� m very happy with my lateral Flow Test. Right across europe in all the popular locations there are places that will organise This for you. Whether it is at the airport before you depart, whether it is at your hotel. Sometimes medical teams will come and test you there, and local pharmacies are also getting ready for an onslaught of brits. Typically about 30 or 40 Euros per person, so £25 £35 that you would pay for that. But of course you also have to pre book your Pcr Test for day two when you are coming back into The Uk, even if you are coming in from the green list country, or lucky enough to have had both jabs, it is the 19th Ofjuly and you are coming in from an amber country. An amber country. Yes, thats the date things an amber country. Yes, thats the date things change an amber country. Yes, thats the date things change markedly, an amber country. Yes, thats the date things change markedly, Ofl Date things change markedly, of course. Lisa, Roger In London Says i� m due to travel to the dip in and you are coming in from an amber country. Yes, that� s the date things change markedly, of course. Lisa, Roger In London Says i� m due to travel to the dip Dominican Republic in september, how do i get a test in the Dominican Republic before returning to the tourism is so important to the Dominican Republic, most of the hotels, if not all of the hotels, have facilities on site to offer the test you would need to get the lateral Flow Test negative results get the lateral Flow Test negative results to get back into The Uk. That results to get back into The Uk. That is results to get back into The Uk. That is perfectly possible. There are lots that is perfectly possible. There are lots of that is perfectly possible. There are lots of pharmacies around the dominican are lots of pharmacies around the Dominican Republic that are also offering Dominican Republic that are also offering either a pcr or a lateral Flow Test offering either a pcr or a lateral Flow Test and ranging in price from about Flow Test and ranging in price from about £25 Flow Test and ranging in price from about £25 Up To £45. What we also Need About £25 Up To £45. What we also need to about £25 Up To £45. What we also need to be about £25 Up To £45. What we also need to be well aware of is the fact dominican need to be well aware of is the fact Dominican Republic was added to our Red List Dominican Republic was added to our Red List in Dominican Republic was added to our Red List in the last Traffic Light Update Red List in the last Traffic Light Update and we can only hope that by September Thats not the case. But at the September Thats not the case. But at the moment if you are returning from at the moment if you are returning from the at the moment if you are returning from the Dominican Republic you have to o from the Dominican Republic you have to go into from the Dominican Republic you have to go into hotel quarantine. Thank ou, to go into hotel quarantine. Thank you. Lisa. To go into hotel quarantine. Thank you, lisa. Simon, to go into hotel quarantine. Thank you, lisa. Simon, stuart to go into hotel quarantine. Thank you, lisa. Simon, Stuart Scott to go into hotel quarantine. Thank you, lisa. Simon, Stuart Scott in l you, lisa. Simon, Stuart Scott in hitchen asks, can we drive to the Czech Republic to visit my wife� s family without breaking any rules . That� s ambitious leaving hitching will be perfectly ok. Laughter if you have been fully vaccinated, you can get into france, you� ve got to take a test before you go there. You can then get into germany, again, only if fully vaccinated. You most certainly are going to have to drive around belgium. I� m afraid you can� t get there. Austria, i think they are pretty sniffy about brits, and again, essential purposes only. But you can swerve that and go in from germany into the Czech Republic. But i� m afraid, last time i checked, Czech Republic really didn� t want anybody from The Uk unless it is for special reasons, or indeed czech citizens can go back. Dare i Say, you would need to check with the czech consulate to make sure whether or not you will be allowed in. But at the moment, driving, there are plenty of flights are still going to prague and back even though they are not desperately to see us, like sadly quite a lot of the rest of europe. 5 to see us, like sadly quite a lot of the rest of europe.

As a word of caution, the more borders you intend to cross within europe the tougher it is going to be. And certainly belgium, for instance, wants to know if you have spent more than 12 hours in The Uk in the past 14 days. And if you have then you can� t come in, except for special reasons. So anybody who, like me, loves international Rail Travel across europe, ifear loves international Rail Travel across europe, i fear This loves international Rail Travel across europe, ifear This isn� t necessarily the summer when it is going to be especially easy. Although overall i expect things will have calmed down quite a lot by september when, will have calmed down quite a lot by septemberwhen, of will have calmed down quite a lot by september when, of course, will have calmed down quite a lot by septemberwhen, of course, everyone has to get back to school or college, or the office or whatever, and it� s only people like me, dare i Say it, lisa who don� t have proper jobs who will be swanning around enjoying the last of the sunshine. We are hugely envious of people like you but we are very grateful for your expertise and your insight. I� ve got some general questions to finish with.

Some big clouds developing too with a few showers, thunderstorms, could be some slow moving torrential downpours in some places. You see them scattered around here, more towards central and eastern parts of england, into scotland as well. But a shower is possible just about anywhere. A lot of cloud in wales and south West England, could see a bit of patchy rain out of that. Fairly warm, fairly humid, of course, particularly where you get to see a few of those sunny spells. A few heavy, thundery downpours continuing into This evening before easing. Another spell of rain pushing into south West England, parts of wales as the night goes on. And as for temperatures tonight, they are holding up. It� s a mild, Muggy Night to come. It could be a bit misty in places too. A lot of cloud around for tomorrow morning, some sunny spells developing. An area of rain pushing across south East England to East Anglia, gradually clearing during the afternoon. Chance of a shower, and again, scattered about into the Afternoon And Evening will be some heavy and perhaps thundery downpours. This is bbc news. I� m martine croxall. The headlines.

We are expecting a Press Conference ahead of sunday� s Euro 2020 final. Obviously a lot of questions about who will be fielded, the kind of approach is that they will take when they take on italy in their first will take when they take on italy in Theirfirst Majorfinal will take when they take on italy in their first major final in the men� s game since 1966. That beat sports presenter. A huge amount of interest about how Gareth Southgate will approach This, austin. Absolutely. That is the Question Approach This, austin. Absolutely. That is the question all approach This, austin. Absolutely. That is the question all fans approach This, austin. Absolutely. | that is the question all fans around the country will be asking, who will be taking to the field on Sunday Night at wembley for that huge game against italy . We are expecting to hear from against italy . We are expecting to hearfrom England Defenderjohn hear from England Defenderjohn stones hearfrom England Defenderjohn stones in the next few minutes, that Press Conference. He has played such a big role in the England Team so far throughout This tournament. He has played in every game, he has been a real feature of that defence, at the back for england. They have been so crucial throughout This tournament, we have heard about Harry Kane of Raheem Sterling who have done the business for england at the top end of the pitch, but don� t forget england have only conceded one goal throughout This entire tournament. And that was in their last game against denmark in their last game against denmark in the semifinal. Five games with five clean sheets before that. The defence has been crucial, and we are hoping to hearfrom defence has been crucial, and we are hoping to hear from John Stones soon. I can� t imagine he will be giving too many secrets away about the Team Sheet come Sunday Night. He certainly wont be. When yOu Look at certainly won� t be. When yOu Look at the calibre of some of the players who have stayed on the bench, who were part of that squad, and don� t really get a look in, it tells you really get a look in, it tells you really how many players Gareth Southgate has to choose from. Absolutely, i think that is something that is filling the england fans with confidence at the moment. The likes of phil foden, who of course has been one of the best players in the Premier League all season for manchester city. He has been on the bench since the first couple of games of the tournament. The Likes Ofjadon Couple of games of the tournament. The likes of Jadon Sancho who is joining Manchester United next season. And others, Jack Grealish Yu has been such a key player in the Premier League, such big names who are all not able to get into This starting team. There is perhaps one position which is up for debate, Bukayo Saka the 19 year old from arsenal is the man who filled that position for the Semifinal Win over denmark. That is one that could change. I would denmark. That is one that could change. Iwould not denmark. That is one that could change. I would not be surprised to be honest if Gareth Southgate stuck to the tried and tested team has fared so well for england recently. You just wonder sometimes is it always the best thing to be the favourites . Is it always best to play at the home of football . Wembley . Yes, you are surrounded by a lot of fans who are desperate for england to win, but how much does that add to the Pressure . Tt certainly will add to the Pressure. 60,000 are expected to be in wembley for the game. And the vast majority of those are going to be england fans, because of course of Travel Restrictions meaning italy fans will not be able to come. They have to be based here in england. But previously, we might have said that would really pile on top of the England Players. But This time around, itjust feels a little bit different. They have perhaps not got that baggage, so let� s hope things are a little bit different This time around. ,. ,. , are a little bit different This time around. ,. , , are a little bit different This time around. ,. ,. , , are a little bit different This time around. ,. , , around.

Is he really going to do that . Maybe he is. I will not even try to commentate, i cannot do an impersonation of a darts commentator. I will carry on talking to you while they are at the key. You cannot take italy for granted, can you . Mancini is someone to be reckoned with. Reckoned with. Absolutely, italy have been reckoned with. Absolutely, italy have been one reckoned with. Absolutely, italy have been one of reckoned with. Absolutely, italy have been one of the reckoned with. Absolutely, italy have been one of the favourites| have been one of the favourites throughout, haven� t they for This tournament. It is perhaps one of the only games, barring the Germany Game you may rememberfrom only games, barring the Germany Game you may remember from the last 16, where england are not the clear favourites going into This one. It is almost 50 50 because italy really have an incredible record as you mention. They are undefeated in 33 games. And that is an amazing achievement in a normal League Season with a club team, but 33 games for international fixtures, that spreads over a couple of years, it really is an incredible statistic. Italy are going to be fierce competition for england come Sunday Night. T fierce competition for england come Sunday Night Sunday Night. I think it ought to stick to the Sunday Night.

Something that has really served them so well over the last couple of seasons and years. I thought it was interesting he said he and the rest of the squad don� t want it to be over. Thatjust shows the togetherness of This team. It is something that hasn� t always been there before with England Players and squads stop sometimes players have stuck with their own club mates in England Teams gone by. We have heard about that. But that could be what makes the difference This time around. Let� s hope so anyway. A very calm John Stones there. It is the mantra Gareth Southgate has brought. But stones gave us a bit halfway through that. He said he doesn� t dare think about the weight of history that is on his and the rest of the teen� s shoulders. He said it was difficult to put into words what it means to them all. The full England Squad is expected to take part in training at St Georges Park today. But not in front of the media. Gareth southgate trying to keep his line up and tactics under wraps, perhaps. Some of the players, though, were put through a more stretching Programme Yesterday after the exertions of wednesday night� s Semifinal Win over denmark.

Metropolitan Police Officer Wayne couzens has pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to the murder of Sarah Everard. The 33 year old disappeared as she walked home in clapham in South London in march This year. Her body was found a week later in woodland near ashford in kent. The head of the Metropolitan Police Cressida Dick said outside court she was � sickened and angered� by the crimes committed by couzens. Our special Correspondent Lucy manning is at the Old Bailey, and she gave us an update on what happened in Court Today and what the reaction was. Sarah everard� s modo was one that chilled the entire country and resonated with Women Everywhere. But most importantly it devastated her family. Herfamily were in Court Today to hear Wayne Couzens appear by Video Link from Belmarsh Prison and he said the word guilty when asked whether he murdered Sarah Everard. His lawyer said he felt genuine remorse and guilt, and that would be a burden for his whole life. But the real burden is for the Everard Family who have lost a daughter, sarah, who they said brought them so much joy. What happened to Sarah Everard is what every woman fears. The fear of walking home alone. Sarah was just walking home alone. Sarah was just walking home. That night, the life that she hadn� t fully lived, the 33 years of bringing Pride And Joy to herfamily, ended. The man responsible, Wayne Couzens, a policeman, also a kidnapper, rapist and murderer, abusing his Police Promise to uphold the law, he broke it in the most brutal way. Far from protecting sarah, the only danger she faced last night was couzens himself. We can now report more about what happened to sarah. Three days before she disappeared, Wayne Couzens reserved a Vauxhall Astra Hire car in kent. On the 3rd Of March at 7am he finished his shift protecting embassies and collected the car. That same evening the last picture of sarah buying a bottle of wine before heading to herfriend� s house in clapham. Around 9pm that evening she started to walk home, calling her boyfriend on the way. Just after 9 30pm on poynders road, a Bus Camera shows the Vauxhall Astra parked on the pavement with Hazard Lights flashing. Two people were standing next to it. Three minutes later, the car is pictured with the two front doors open, the Hire Car then heads out of london to kent and it is returned at 8 30am in the morning. This is where sarah was last seen. When couzens was arrested he lied and lied. He claimed he owed money to an eastern European Gang for underpaying a prostitute. They threatened his family and ordered him to deliver another girl. He admitted to Kidnapping Sarah but said he had handed her over alive and unharmed to the gang when they stopped his car on the way out of london. The truth was that couzens raped and murdered the 33 year old, hiding her body deep in the Kent Countryside. So it took a week to find her remains. As met Police Officers searched, the murderer was in their ranks. Two days after he had kidnapped sarah, couzens had bought two builders� bags at b q. Her body was found in one. Couzens lived 30 miles away in deal, married with two children, a man who served in the territorial army, in the Civil Nuclear Constabulary and two and a half years before killing Sarah Hejoined and a half years before Killing Sarah he joined the and a half years before killing Sarah Hejoined the met and a half years before Killing Sarah he joined the met police. And a half years before killing Sarah Hejoined the met police. Deal. Questions for the force, how could he have been cleared to carry a gun when he would go on to kill . And questions about what officers did when couzens was reported for exposing himself twice in a Takeaway Restaurant exposing himself twice in a Takeaway Restau Ra nt just exposing himself twice in a Takeaway Restaurant just days before exposing himself twice in a Takeaway Restaurantjust days before the murder. Could he have been stopped . The Ashen Faced metropolitan commissioner met with the Everard Family This morning to Say how sorry she was for their loss. The] family This morning to Say how sorry she was for their loss. She was for their loss. All of us in the met police she was for their loss. All of us in the met police are she was for their loss. All of us in the met police are second, she was for their loss. All of us in. The met police are second, angered and devastated by This man� s crimes. They are dreadful. And everyone in policing feels betrayed. The murder of one Woman Policing feels betrayed. The murder of one woman resonated policing feels betrayed. The murder of one woman resonated with of one woman resonated with thousands of others. Demands that the streets must be safe. Violence against women must stop. Harassment and abuse must be taken more seriously. The Everard Family had one wish, that sarah would come home safely. But a policeman took her future away. Lucy manning, bbc news. The Metropolitan Police commissioner looked shaken when she came out of court to make that statement. There are serious questions for her force and other officers as well. What exactly happened to the vetting of Wayne Couzens when he joined the met . We know he was vetted in his previous job guarding met . We know he was vetted in his previousjob guarding nuclear met . We know he was vetted in his previous job guarding Nuclear Power Stations but was he vetted again when hejoined stations but was he vetted again when he joined the met . Stations but was he vetted again when hejoined the met . Serious questions about that Indecent Exposure. What happened to that investigation . It was three days before he kidnapped sarah. It was the very day that he booked his Hire Car. And we now understand from the Police Regulator that there was another indecent Exposure Allegation in 2015 in kent. So what did Kent Police do about that . More than anything, Sarah Everard� s family want to know what happened to her because Wayne Couzens, although he has pleaded guilty, still hasn� t given the police any information. He only told them a fake story. He will be sentenced in september. Lucy manning reporting from the Old Bailey. Following that guilty plea from Wayne Couzens The Independent office of Police Complaints has published an update in investigations into new Police Complaints connected to Sarah Everard� s death. In total the iopc has served 12 gross Misconduct Or Misconduct notices on Police Officers from several forces. They include an investigation into alleged met police failures to investigate two allegations of Indecent Exposure linked to Pc Couzens in london in february 2021. An investigation into alleged Kent Police failures to investigate an indecent Exposure Incident linked to Pc Couzens in kent in 2015. And an investigation into allegations that officers from a number of forces breached standards of professional behaviour while sharing information linked to the prosecution of Pc Couzens via a messaging app. Daniel machover is a solicitor who specialises in civil litigation on behalf of people who have suffered wrongs at the hands of the criminalJustice System and is at the Firm Hickman rose. Daniel muchova, thank you for joining us. It must be said you have been involved in representing the family of the former footballer Dalian Atkinson, Pc Benjamin Monk of West Mercia Police was jailed for his Killing And Today i believe there has been a development in that where he has been sacked by the force. It seems like a strange thing to do when he has already been jailed. Tell us the implications of that and why it is significant. Following his conviction he had to accept at a disciplinary Hearing Today that he was involved in discreditable conduct that brought the police into disrepute and it was the police into disrepute and it was the inevitable outcome of that disciplinary hearing that he would be dismissed that hadn� t happened until the conviction and his sentencing recently. Ithink until the conviction and his sentencing recently. I think what that case has raised and which is echoed by some of the concerns that you havejust echoed by some of the concerns that you have just expressed with the new investigations following mr couzens pleading guilty today is the vetting that goes on when Police Officers join the Police Force and what happens if that vetting is proved to have been faulty because pc monk, it emerged, following his conviction, had two criminal cautions before he joined the police which he had failed to disclose. They were discovered sometime later and instead of him being dismissed for Gross Misconduct at that point for failing to disclose those cautions, he was given a final warning so the Atkinson Family are very upset that he was even serving at the time that Dalian Atkinson died. He shouldn� t have been on duty that night at all. He should have been dismissed several years before then. And a concern that i hear in This case of mr couzens is that the vetting is now going to be looked into, and what happens when the vetting is found to be faulty . Our Police Forces ruthless when they discover a Police Officer has failed to disclose important information when joining the force . Th disclose important information when joining the force . Joining the force . In your view, how ruthless are joining the force . In your view, how ruthless are they . Joining the force . In your view, how ruthless are they . There joining the force . In your view, how ruthless are they . There is joining the force . In your view, how ruthless are they . There is This ruthless are they . There is This idea of a lack of candour in public office. Explain what that means, if you would. For office. Explain what that means, if ou would. , office. Explain what that means, if you would you would. For me, if you are required you would. For me, if you are required to you would. For me, if you are required to disclose you would. For me, if you are required to disclose any you would. For me, if you are i required to disclose any relevant history when you join a Police Force, that has to be enforced ruthlessly. In the case of Mr Monk we know that wasn� t the case, that the Police Force instead when they discovered he had failed to be candid when he joined discovered he had failed to be candid when hejoined the Police Force, although they put him through Gross Misconduct proceedings, the penalty did not fit the failure, his failures, his offence, if you like, because they issued him with a final warning. I don� t think that� s ruthless, i don� t think it inspires public confidence and in This case he would not have served at the time in 2016 when Dalian Atkinson needed help instead of that he was killed by This Police Officer. We have to be clear, when Police Officers are required to disclose information on joining any Police Force, or moving between one force and another and the history that goes back to the simon harwood case, the officer who was involved in the death of mr tomlinson, again, in that case the officer had moved from Police Force to Police Force with a disciplinary record that was not disclosed. These are matters of grave public confidence and they have to be addressed properly by Police Forces. That was ian tomlinson, the Newspaper Seller who died in london some years ago. Serious offences like This, thankfully, in This country by Police Officers are still rare. How viable is the argument, though, that when suspicions are raised, or reports, allegations are made against a Police Officer, that they should be suspended from duty while investigations take place, given that we believe in This country that you are innocent until proven guilty . Proven guilty . Again, that is a iuestion proven guilty . Again, that is a question of proven guilty . Again, that is a question of what proven guilty . Again, that is a question of what an proven guilty . Again, that is a question of what an employer| proven guilty . Again, that is a question of what an employer does when a serious allegation that shakes public confidence, especially in a public role, where Police Officers are given extraordinary powers under legislation. In my view, where a serious allegation like, for example, the allegation that i understand related to mr couzens just a few days before the events related to Sarah Everard, if the police failed to suspend him from duty when those allegations came to light in february, that is a serious failure in my view. If these kind of allegations are brought against Police Officers, public confidence demands that they are suspended from duty. That is not a finding of guilt, that is a showing of the significance of the fact that these are people empowered, given great powers by legislation, and they shouldn� t be able to be on duty while they face serious allegations. Daniel machover from the law Firm Hickman rose, thank you for your time. Now here is the weather with nick. Count yourself lucky if you are seeing a sky that has more blue than grey. We have seen some big clouds developing today, a sign of further showers, some thundery, perhaps torrential downpours possible, but they are very hit and miss for the rest of the day across parts of the midlands, eastern england, north East England and into scotland. Light winds, they will hang around for a period of time, we could see quite a bit of rain out of these, but by no Means Everybody will. Feeling quite warm and humid out there, particularly where you get to see some sunshine. Quite pleasant if you stay dry. A lot of cloud in wales and south West England, a bit of patchy rain out of that, more substantial rain moving on as we go deep into This evening and overnight as it begins to move eastwards across southern parts of england. Elsewhere, still a few showers around them are becoming less intense, plenty of cloud, a rather Muggy Night to come. Into tomorrow, one area of low Pressure when the rain clears from south East England, showers elsewhere. Another Weather System approaching from the west on sunday approaching with its rain and showers breaking out ahead of that, sunny spells also This weekend. A lot of cloud for saturday morning, gradually brightening up, but showers will break out again across parts of the midlands, north wales, northern england into scotland, especially into the west, parts of Northern Ireland possible too. The rain for the morning across south East England into East Anglia gradually clearing as the afternoon goes on, may be some showers following behind, high teens to low 20s, in the South East and east of england compared to today. Scattered and thundery showers continue into the evening and flaring up again on sunday with some sunny spells too. Areas most likely to see downpours on sunday, Northern Ireland, scotland, northern england, and increasing cloud for wales and south West England as we see some areas of Rain Beginning to moving deeper into the day and that gradually pushing further east as we go through sunday evening. What does that mean for all the sport taking place . Take wimbledon, for example. A shower cannot be ruled out today but some warm and fairly humid and sunny spells. Saturday morning, rain clearing, still a chance of a shower later as it brightens up, loss of cloud on sunday, rain holding off until late in the day, although there may still be a shower. Talking about later in the day on sunday, rain heading to wembley. This is bbc news. I� m martine croxall. The headlines.

Around nine that evening, she started to walk home, calling her boyfriend on the way. Just after 9 30, on poynders road, a Bus Camera shows the Vauxhall Astra parked on the pavement with Hazard Lights flashing. Two people are standing next to it. Three minutes later, the car is pictured with the two front doors open. The Hire Car then heads out of london to kent, and it� s returned at 8 30 in the morning. This is where sarah was last seen. When couzens was arrested, he lied and lied. He claimed he owed money to an eastern European Gang for underpaying a prostitute, and they threatened his family and ordered him to deliver them another girl. He admitted Kidnapping Sarah but said he had handed her over, alive and unharmed, to the gang when they stopped his car on the way out of london. The truth was that couzens raped and murdered the 33 year old, hiding her body deep in the Kent Countryside so it took a week to find her remains. As met Police Officers searched, the murderer was in their ranks. Two days after he� d kidnapped sarah, couzens had bought two builder� s bags at b q. Her body was found in one. Couzens lived 30 miles away in deal, married with two children a man who served in the territorial army, in the Civil Nuclear Constabulary. And two and a half years before Killing Sarah, he joined the met police. Shame on you, shamel on you, shame on you questions for the force how could he have been cleared to carry a gun when he would go on to kill . And questions about what officers did when couzens was reported for exposing himself twice, in a Takeaway Restaurant just days before the murder. Could he have been stopped . The Ashen Faced metropolitan commissioner spoke to the Everard Family This morning to Say how sorry she was for their loss. All of us in the met are sickened, angered and devastated by This man� s crimes. They are dreadful. And everyone in policing feels betrayed. The murder of one woman resonated with thousands of others demands that the streets must be safe, violence against women must stop, Harassment And Abuse must be taken more seriously. The Everard Family had one wish that sarah would come home safely. But a policeman took her future away. Lucy manning, bbc news. The Metropolitan Police commissioner looked shaken when she came out of court to make that statement. There are serious questions for her force and other officers as well. What exactly happened to that vetting of Wayne Couzens when he joined the met . We know he was vetted in his previousjob of guarding Nuclear Power Stations. Was he vetted again when he joined the met . And serious questions about that Indecent Exposure. What happened to that investigation . It was three days before he kidnapped sarah, it was the very day that he booked his Hire Car. And we now understand from the Police Regulator that there was another indecent Exposure Allegation in 2015 in kent. So, what did Kent Police do about that . More than anything, Sarah Everard� s family want to know what happened to her, because Wayne Couzens, although he has pleaded guilty, still has not given the police any information. He only told them a fake story. He will be sentenced in september. That was Lucy Manning reporting there from the Old Bailey. Following that guilty plea from Wayne Couzens, The Independent office of Police Complaints has published an update in investigations into new Police Complaints connected to Sarah Everards death. To Sarah Everard� s death. In total, the iopc has served 12 gross Misconduct Or Misconduct notices on Police Officers from several forces. They include. Our home affairs editor, mark easton, gave me This update about some of those notices. Three officers have been served with Gross Misconduct notices over the sharing of what they call an inappropriate graphic on Social Media. In a way, i think that that allegation, and we don� t know what This inappropriate graphic was, but clearly there has been a lot of Pressure on the Metropolitan Police, and police more generally, over a culture of misogyny. A culture of racism, a culture of corruption, as we have heard. And i think that that is where the police are at their most vulnerable in relation to This. That their reputation, if it is thought that there is a culture that does not take things as seriously as they should, in This case. I would make the point that actually the investigation into Sarah Everard� s murder was thorough and professional. They achieved. They saw through couzens� s lies quickly and achieved a guilty plea on all charges. This was the relatively speedy conviction that everybody wanted. But as that list of investigations that the iopc has been doing illustrates, and indeed questions about the vetting of Wayne Couzens, who was a Firearms Officer with parliamentary and diplomatic protection duties, that is where the police are more vulnerable, in terms of the culture that goes on. Were they treating the crime as seriously as they should have done . The two counts of Indecent Exposure that you mentioned, that matter still under investigation from february involving Metropolitan Police officers. Did they take that seriously enough . To Add Insult to injury for many people, when women did go out protesting to try to reclaim these streets, as it was called, one of the movements involved, there was criticism of how the police managed those events. Indeed, the Sarah Everard vigil on clapham common, indeed, the Sarah Everard vigil on clapham common, there was a lot of criticism for the way the Metropolitan Police arrested women and dragged them away in handcuffs. It was regarded as unnecessary use of force. The review into the operations of that did exonerate the Metropolitan Police. But for an awful lot of women, it seemed to be symptomatic of a force that did not take crimes against women seriously enough. The Metropolitan Police can Say that This was one officer who did This, you cannot Say that all officers are corrupt. And that has never been said. But when you add up the institutional Corruption Allegations or findings that came out of the daniel morgan report, when yOu Look at the criticism of how the deaths of Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman two black women were investigated, compared with the Murder Investigation for Sarah Everard, it starts to build a picture that people will Say there is a contextual problem here. Ultimately, the most important thing is retaining public Confidence And Trust in the police. We have a system of policing by consent in This country, we don� t generally have armed officers for instance, that is the way we like to do it. And that requires there to be a trusting relationship between the public and the police. In fact, there has been a decline in some measures of Confidence And Trust over the last few years, but nothing very, very significant. And i do think that that will be the real question can the police retain broad public Confidence And Trust after, as you Say, This raft of scandals and problems . Because if they lose that, then we really are in deep trouble. Mark easton, our home editor. We have the latest coronavirus figures now. According to government data, 29 deaths have been recorded today. That is of people who have tested positive within 28 days of covid 19. There were 35 people who died in the previous 24 Hour Period reported to have done so. In terms of the number of new cases today, 35,707. Up by a few thousand compared with yesterday. Over 3000 more new cases today. In terms of vaccines, 45. 7 million people have had theirfirst dose. And that is 86. 8 of the adult population. 34. 4 million have had their second dose which is 65. 3 of their second dose which is 65. 3 of the adult population. The coronavirus reproduction number, or r value, in england has increased slightly and is between 1. 2 to 1. 5, according to the latest government figures. Last week, it was between 1. 1 and 1. 3. R represents the average number of people each covid 19 positive person goes on to infect. When the figure is above one, an outbreak can grow exponentially but when it is below one, it means the epidemic is shrinking. The Nhs Covid Contact Tracing app used in england and wales may need to become less sensitive as restrictions change. The Transport Secretary Grant shapps has said The End of Social Distancing on 19july may mean the app needs to change. There� s been a huge rise in alerts as infections surge. Our health correspondent Jim Reed reports. It� s the alert you really don� t want to get. 350,000 pings like This were sent in the last week ofjune, telling Smartphone Users in england they have been near someone who later tested positive for covid. This Climbing Centre in surrey had to close This week after 13 of its staff were pinged and couldn� t come into work. It really just escalated to the point where we ended up with probably only two Staff Members that were available, so we had to act very quickly obviously. So what� s been the Knock On Effect for the business as a whole . I don� t even know what� s going to happen for the future, but as an immediate impact on the basis we� re losing income again. And it� s going to hurt. The Nhs Covid App uses bluetooth technology, a Data Signal that can work out roughly how far your phone is from another device and for what length of time. An algorithm then calculates how risky that contact is. Above a certain level, and you get told so self isolate for Up To ten days. But unlike a call from test and trace, that instruction has always been advisory. An update to the app later This month could make that more explicit, then from mid August Anyone double jabbed in england will be able to avoid Self Isolation completely. But the recent spike in covid cases is already leading to a sharp increase in smartphone alerts. Ministers have suggested the app may be tweaked, perhaps allowing users to stay closer to a positive case for longer, before they are pinged. Its in the interest of us as a society to carry on doing the things which help protect Each Other. And we will make sure the app is reviewed so it is appropriate for the period of time we are living through, particularly now as we are getting into the majority of adults having been double vaccined. Labour Says any attempt to change the way the app works could be counterproductive. This feels like taking the batteries out of the Smoke Detector and that is never a good idea, i that is an important protection. Im equally worried by the fact that, driven, i think, by the likely high numbers told to self isolate, people, the stories of people deleting the app altogether. Ministers Say there is no real evidence that people are deleting the app en masse. A downing Street Source Says people in england are still being encouraged to isolate if they get that ping. Jim reed, bbc news. Bookings for holidays and flights to Amber List destinations have surged after it was announced yesterday that Uk Residents who are fully vaccinated will no longer need to quarantine on their return to england or Northern Ireland. Immigration officials have said the governmenT Needs to warn passengers there will be long queues at the Uk Border as international travel continues to open up. Meanwhile, malta, which is currently on the government� s green list, Says it will ban all visitors to the country from wednesday, unless they are double jabbed. Our Transport Correspondent Caroline davis reports. International travel is opening up if you have been fully vaccinated in The Uk. Soon, you won� T Need to quarantine if you travel from an Amber List country. The announcement seems to have been enough to persuade some to start booking. Within an hour of the announcement, we saw a 53 increase in traffic to skyscanner, following the same time the day before. And that isjust, i mean, a clear sign of the huge appetite that there is for travel. The policy will start on the 19th Ofjuly in england and the 26th Ofjuly in Northern Ireland. Scotland and wales are yet to Say whether they will do the same thing. More passengers will be welcome for the travel industry, but there are worries about queues like these, seen early in the year, too. One union has warned it will be impossible to prevent even longer queues without more resources. The place to expect queues are at the airport you are coming the real backlog would potentially be at the place you leave from, rather than when you get back to The Uk. People should expect, i think, more disruption than usual, but i know everyone is working very hard to minimise those queues. Some will be left out passengers will still need to buy tests, which will price some out of going abroad. Many under 30s are still not fully vaccinated, and the policy currently only applies to those who have been jabbed in The Uk. Aria lives in The Uk but had both of her vaccines in america, so the old rules, including the need to quarantine, will apply to her. I just want to see my family. It is frustrating because i have had both jabs at the Pfizer Vaccine which is an approved vaccine. Butjust because they were administered in the us, i am treated completely differently. Other countries have already started accepting Vaccination Certificates from Around The World. How difficult would it be for The Uk to accept other countries� Vaccination Certificates . If we look at countries in the european bloc, we have digital Vaccination Certificates being issued. And we think it is also important that The Uk is able to accept non digital certificates as well, because there are many countries Around The World issuing certification in paper form. And there are countries accepting that, so no reason The Uk cannot in the early days. The government has said that it hopes to have some news on recognising people vaccinated in the eu in a couple of weeks. For some, foreign skies are a little closer. For others, they seem as far away as ever. Caroline davies, bbc news. The England Team is continuing preparations for sunday� s Euro 2020 final against italy. The players have been training at st george� s park in staffordshire. In the last hour, the England Defenderjohn stones said the chance to play in the final was merely a dream at the start of the tournament. I think it� s huge. With It Being at wembley as well, it� s even more special. I think it� s something we could have only dreamt of, really, at the start of the tournament. We are here to try and win it and we have got This far now, and i think we have just grown and grown throughout the tournament. We have not put too much Pressure on ourselves. I think we have overcome some tough tests over the past few years and learned a lot of things and gained a lot of experience from those games. And i think all the Learning Curves and experiences that we� ve been through have got us to where we are on sunday. So it� s a massive occasion. We have definitely thrived off the fans, and i suppose we� re living their dream. Right at the front, out on the pitch. And we can� t thank them enough for all their support. England defenderJohn Stones. In a major escalation since international troops started withdrawing from afghanistan, taliban fighters Say they� ve seized key Border Crossings with iran and turkmenistan. President Joe Biden has defended the decision to speed up the withdrawal of us troops by The End of august. Taliban members Say they have taken control of 85 of territory in afghanistan, a claim disputed by the afghan government. During talks in russia, the taliban� s Negotiation Team have been outlining their goals. Translation were giving everyone assurances that will prevent daesh and other groups. They have no place in afghanistan. Our land will not be used against our neighbours or other countries. We� re not after power. We want everyone in afghanistan to work in the government based on their skills and hard work. Based on islamic laws and afghan culture, we� re in support of every afghan� S Education whether they� re a man or a woman. Afghanistan� s islamic emirates will allow men and women to continue education from primary school to doctorates. Likewise, based on these laws, everyone, men and women, will have the right to work. With the taliban making gains in afghanistan, what is the mood in kabul . Our chief international Correspondent Lyse Doucest has been finding out. The city springs to life. Kabul� s oldest market, one of its busiest. Painters, masons, plasterers, they all come here to find a day� s work. It� s always been tough, but much tougher now. Translation the. Foreigners are leaving. We are worried about the war. It� s everywhere. People are fleeing into the cities but there is no work here. We are under so much Pressure. This fridge. And they sold all their crockery . Yes. A street of second hand goods. Nusrat set up shop here when his job ended with the us military. Lots of afghans were working with them, now they are jobless. A lot of them are planning to go out of afghanistan because of their security and because of a lack ofjobs. The americans said it� s time to go, it� s 20 years, that� s enough. For what purpose did they come in for what purpose are they going . What is the conclusion . If they didnt gain something, they didnt build something for us, they didnt make the security for us, why are they coming . Tea and treats in the city centre. Sweet moments for afghans who can afford them. The kind of life many young afghans here, men and women, want to live. Growing insecurity already threatens it. We are hurrying just coming to the restaurant, coming to a cafe, meeting our friends, just go home. The taliban Say This is a western lifestyle. Maybe they Say we are acting like europeans or american people. But i think its not true. We have the right| to choose our life. A lot is being knocked out of afghan lives. At This popular bowling alley, we hear notjust worry about the taliban. The government is failing them too, even in promoting sports like This. Munir Ahmad Assafi is a national champion. Translation fewer people are coming here now. Before we used to gather about 40 people, we would divide into teens and hold competitions, but that doesn� t happen anymore. The changes over the past 20 years in afghanistan have brought new measures of freedom to many living in kabul. It� s a life they want to hold onto and now feel they are losing. The departure of international forces is turning in to the departure of international forces is turning into the loss of so much more. For now, the walls keep rising to protect the most powerful, most privileged. The government under Pressure to protect its own people. As the taliban make rapid gains beyond kabul, you feel the rising uncertainty on every street. Lyse doucet, bbc news, kabul. The Olympic Flame has arrived in tokyo in a low Key Ceremony without any crowds, two weeks before the opening of the games. Yesterday, japanese officials announced there would be no spectators at olympic venues because of the rise in covid cases. Our correspondent Rupet Wingfield hayes reports. This should have been a moment of high excitement. The start of the final leg of the olympic Torch Relay. Instead, the governor of tokyo This morning received the flame in an empty arena. There will be no Torch Relay in tokyo. As we found out last night, no spectators at the olympic games either. We are now faced with rising covid 19 infections, mrs hashimoto Says, and we unfortunately had no other choice but to hold the games in a limited way. The problem now is the delta Variant. It has become very apparent because of that new Variant, the current covid measures in force here in tokyo are no longer working. Add to that japan is still way behind on vaccinations and it is clear that another Big Wave Of Covid was going to strike here right about the time of the olympics if something drastic was not done. From the Infection Control Perspective and also the ethical perspective, the spectators should not be allowed to come into the stadium. Also because japan� s government called for the State Of Emergency and asked people to be isolated or restrict their activities. So why the olympics would be the only one exception against it . But olympic fans with tickets told me This ban is an overreaction. I totally understand the situation is still dangerous for us to hold the olympic games. But at the same time, i think we should find a way to manage to hold a big event. We need to live with covid from now on, so we need to find a way and prove that we can do it. Most japanese support the spectator ban, but tokyo� s taxpayers will also have to foot the bill for refunding all those tickets, around £600 million. Rupert wingfield hayes, tokyo. Now it� s time for a look at the weather with nick. Hello. Just limited sunny spells around today.

Not really. Chiesa. Italy arejust a pretty good team. It is calm, they are back on their routine, all 26 train This morning including John Stones who has started every match for england.

Absolutely, not long to go. Olly foster, thank you very much. Matteo berettini is the first man into the wimbledon final. He� s beaten poland� s Hubert Hurkacz in four sets within the last Half Hour. It� s the italian� s first Grand Slam final. And he� ll face either Novak Djokovic or Denis Shapovalov there they have just stepped onto Centre Court now. Well, we can go live to wimbledon and speak to Chetan Pathak there for us. A first major final for berretini chetan but it� s not too much of a surprise given the form he� s been in . He has been outstanding of late, he came into these championships having won the queens title, much talked about, the seventh seed, but he had to get the job done This afternoon pretty much went his way. Hubert hurkacz had battled back to win that third set but the strong berrettini serve, the powerhouse of a forehand was too good for the Polish Player as berrettini makes history as the first italian man to play in a wimbledon final, and he was a really efficient today. I thought he didn� t let the sense of occasion get to him. There may have been some wayward errors early on but he� s got that under control winning the second set 6 0, and then seeing out the match in the fourth set, holding his serve and playing with great poise and control. As you Say, austin, in the last few minutes we have seen Novak Djokovic, defending champion, playing in his tenth wimbledon semifinal, about to play Denis Shapovalov, the canadian playing in his first Grand Slam semifinal. Great all round game, shapovalov. He is a junior champion here as well and understands how to play on grass, but it� s the biggest of his life that awaits Novak Djokovic. I willjust tell you that in the Wheelchair Singles we have had some good results for britain today. Andy lapthorne has won the final of the men� s Quad Wheelchair doubles and the british former champion Gordon Reid is into the final as well.

I� m sure, there is tonnes about. Thank you let� s get more now on the news that metPolice Officer Wayne couzens, has pleaded guilty to the murder of Sarah Everard. Harriet wistrich has been a solicitor for 25 years and is the Founder And Director of the centre for women� s justice. Thank you forjoining us. We have seen further scrutiny This week of Police Conduct surrounding Sarah Everard� s murder, but also the murders of the sisters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman. What, in your view, should happen now in terms of looking at police ok. View, should happen now in terms of looking at polic looking at police ok, specifically deafini looking at police ok, specifically dealing with looking at police ok, specifically dealing with the looking at police ok, specifically dealing with the issues looking at police ok, specifically dealing with the issues of looking at police ok, specifically dealing with the issues of police | dealing with the issues of police misconduct, there must be a much more robust and independent system. We have lodged what is known as a police super complaint looking at police super complaint looking at police perpetrated abuse and one of the key complaints there is that officers are investigating their colleagues and officers are not being sufficiently held accountable in terms of disciplinary procedures and referrals to criminal charging. So there needs to be a really major cultural change, ora so there needs to be a really major cultural change, or a cultural revolution, almost, in relation to the way in which police offending, if you like, is dealt with. We know in relation to issues of sexual misconduct that so called lesser crimes of sexual misconduct like Indecent Exposure are often indicators of far more serious offending, orare indicators of far more serious offending, or are indicators of a likely escalation to more serious offending if perpetrators are not held accountable. So more generally speaking it is actually incumbent on our criminaljustice speaking it is actually incumbent on our criminal Justice System speaking it is actually incumbent on our criminalJustice System to deal with those lesser offences, particularly those types of sexual offences, before they escalate to these kind of very alarming levels. More generally, i would Say what these really awful murders indicate, as well as issues of police misconduct, isjust, you know, the level of violence against women which led to so many women coming out onto the streets back in march when Sarah Everard went missing. We need to start treating This as a public health epidemic. It is something which needs really serious addressing, more resources putting on, more education around misogyny, and a kind of Sea Change in terms of our criminaljustice and a kind of Sea Change in terms of our criminal Justice System and a kind of Sea Change in terms of our criminalJustice System so it becomes more effective. Hagar our criminalJustice System so it becomes more effective. How do you brini that becomes more effective. How do you bring that about . Becomes more effective. How do you bring that about .

Clearly schools have a huge role to play. We have also done work around issues of lack of Accountability And Lack of protection for girls reporting crimes of sexual violence by boys. And again, thaT Needs to start right at the beginning. We need to start treating teaching children and adults, to treat Each Other with respect, to stop blaming girls and women for crimes committed against them and to start holding perpetrators, boys and men, usually, to account. , perpetrators, boys and men, usually, to account. ,.

This is a huge factory which employs more than 7,000 workers and fire broke out in one of the buildings in the Factory Compound were more than 1,000 workers were on duty yesterday evening. The firefighters told us that they have entered into the building of the gutted building, in search of dead bodies, trying to find out whether anyone is alive or not.

The charity that commissioned the research Says that differences wrong. But its boss maintains to change it more money has to be spent by government on funding care. People find the work in Social Care are incredibly rewarding and they enjoy what they are asked to do but they just find that they can� t survive and look after their own families on less than £18,000 a year, and certainly that� s the case if you are the main earner in the family.

The headlines on bbc news. Metropolitan Police Officer Wayne couzens pleads guilty to the murder of Sarah Everard. He� ll be sentenced in september he had already admiited kidnapping and raping the 33 year old who went missing on a walk in South London. The Coronavirus Reproduction Rate rises in england as cases continue to surge. And as anticipation continues to build for england� s Euro 2020 final against italy on sunday, defenderJohn Stones Says reaching the final is something he could only have dreamt of at the start of the tournament. It� s emerged that the conservative candidate who was barred from becoming the Police Commissioner for wiltshire in may because of an old conviction actually has a second conviction which would also have prevented him taking up thejob. Jonathon seed won the election but as he was disbarred a new vote� s being held in august. From swindon, dan o� brien reports. We already knew that conservative Jonathan Seed had a 30 year old conviction for drink driving. That is what threw This election into disarray. You see, the rules to be Police Commissioner are much stricter than for other politicians. If you have ever been convicted of an imprisonable offence, you cannot do the job. He was never sent to prison, but the fact he could have been This he was never sent to prison, but the fact he could have been disbars him from Doing It even though he won the vote. What is new today is we have learned that there was notjust one but two offences which prevented him from taking up the role. At the same time as he was convicted for drink driving, he was also convicted of failing to stop at the scene of a crash. The key question is who knew what and when about all of This . I spoke toJonathan Seed last night, he has again said in a statement that he did declare This to the conservative party. Something that the tory Party Head Office disputes. But a source close toJonathan Seed has insisted there is documentary evidence to show that he did tell them. The Police Investigation into This continues, and in the meantime, the rerun of the wiltshire police and crime Commissioner Election will be held in august at a cost to taxpayers of over £1 million. Dan o� brien reporting. The extent of financial Pressures facing councils across The Uk as they emerge from the pandemic has been revealed in a special bbc investigation. The shared data unit� s analysis of 171 authorities has found that councils hit by Falling Income and increased costs are set to make at least £1. 7 billion worth of savings in the next year while also using more than £500 million worth of reserves to balance their books. Ten struggling councils in england are set to offset or borrow £290 million after being given exceptional permission from the ministry of housing, communities local government to try to remedy what it called their � unmanageable Pressures�. But despite making savings, local authorities are currently predicting a £3 billion shortfall in their budgets by 2022 to � 24. Earlier we heard from three political reporters from across the regions in england starting with Joanne Gallagher in shrewsbury. Shropshire council is actually predicting a shortfall of nearly £49 million in the next three years. Where that money will be saved from, what cuts will be made, theyjust don� t know. I have been speaking to Lezley Picton who is the leader of the council. She has only been in post for two months and Says she has no idea how This money will be saved. The former actress may have to pull out the performance of her life if she is to find This money from somewhere. What she does want to look towards is bringing more money in. They own a theatre, theatre seven in shrewsbury. They have car parks, they have spent over £50 million on three Shopping Centres in shrewsbury. She is hoping that that Will Claw back some money through business rates, getting more shops and hotels and leisure facilities there in the centre of shrewsbury. But the biggest amount of their money is Going On looking after vulnerable adults and children. More than 70 of their budget goes on looking after those youngsters and the elderly. And it does not really cut through with the taxpayers, because for the majority of people, they may noT Need those services at the moment. They are more concerned about getting their bins collected. So it is a real concern at the moment, and where she thinks they can make a real difference is if they were to get fairer funding from the government. It is something that has been looked at for a long time. She thinks that if rural areas were funded in the way cities are, with more weighting coming in, they would get 30 Million extra per year. My colleague Claire Hamilton has the situation in liverpool. Well, here on merseyside, all six councils have talked for the last almost decade about the strains on their finances. How they have all reduced services, they have all raised Council Tax by the highest amount that they have been permitted. And in order to increase their income, they have all invested in commercial deals for things like Shopping Centres, a cinema, and in the case of liverpool city council, Evertons Finch Farm training ground, which they have rented back to the club to generate an income. Now, in wirral, which isjust over the River Mersey behind me, like many councils, it has seen its spending really squeezed by the pandemic. They have had to support a lot of vulnerable residents they have of vulnerable residents, they have had to put money into projects delivering food and buying Ppe Staff members. And they have also seen their Revenue Drop as well because people have not been going to the Shopping Centre that they have bought. They have not been parking their cars in the town centre. Council Tax Revenue has dropped as well. And wirral council put forward a budget at the beginning of This year which would have seen some really drastic cuts to services. It would have seen two museums close, it would have seen swimming pools and golf courses shut, and it would also have seen things like bin collections go to once every three weeks, and School Crossing patrols as well be cut. But the government has stepped in with a £9 million loan to the council, because otherwise they would be dipping even deeper into its reserves. A position which an Audit Report Says was unsustainable. Now lets go to the walton in newcastle for the picture there. Councils across the North East i and cumbria Say they are having to find a savings of around £95 million in the current. Financial year. The worst Hit Council here, newcastle, they are facingj a £30 Million cut. Newcastles Labour Leader Says a combination of Covid Relatedl extra spending and a fall in income is worsening an already perilous situation. And the big loser here, as in so many places, i adult Social Care. We are seeing a situation| where eligibility for Social Care is being tightened, i many families facing extra charges, and there is also a cut to supported accommodation i for people with disabilities. The Library Service also a loser, and we have seen a situation. Where many libraries across This |area have seen a real reductionj in the number of opening hours. The government Says in response it has given an extra £79 million to newcastle council in covid support including £3 million for Social Care. But what is clear from councils across the region is they are facing a long term challenge, including what they Say will be a budget black hole between them iof around £190 million by 2024. This is clearly a Process And Debate which has a long way to run. A spokesman for the ministry of housing, communities and local government pointed to £12 billion given to local authorities during the pandemic, and said in coming months the government would take stock of the demands they faced and decide a timetable for funding changes. Council budgets, already under Pressure before the pandemic, were made worse by a combination of extra costs to support communities, and a loss of income from things like Parking And Business rates. In many cases, councils have also lost revenue from private investments. Westiminster and the devolved governments have given local authorities extra funding, but Bbc Analysis shows many are in a precarious position. Across The Uk, £1. 7 billion of savings are planned for This year, which could mean bus services scrapped, childrens centres closed or limits on care services for disabled or elderly people in parts. Despite the cuts, councils are still facing a shortfall in coming years. There are calls for the demolition of buildings to be recognised as an environmental problem. The royal institute of british architects Says making materials such as cement, steel and bricks for new buildings is increasing carbon emissions. It wants ministers to tell developers to refurbish rather than demolish properties wherever possible. Our Environment Analyst Roger harrabin has more. Another one gone. And another one gone. And another one bites the dust. We can� t keep knocking buildings down. In The Uk, we currently demolish around 50,000 buildings a year and we really must stop doing This. Why� s that . Well, the answer is in This brick. It started life as a lump of clay. Imagine how much heat was needed to make the brick and the emissions created in the process. Now look behind me. How many bricks there . Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, maybe. Who knows . But imagine the emissions created to make those bricks, to create a building from them and then to knock them down and start again. London� s Hoover Building shows what can happen instead of demolition. The Vacuum Cleaner Factory was transformed into apartments by architects, including maria smith. It takes so long to design a building, to create a building, to operate it. But we don� t have that kind of time to make the changes that we need to in order to reduce our carbon footprint. It� s so urgent that we act right now and that means changing the way we design things, the way we build things the way we procure things. Right now. We have to stop demolishing things without being really, really careful about it. If we are going to demolish something, how are we going to reuse every single part of that . But still, developers often choose the wrecking ball rather than the refurbishment. Architects want a different approach. We need to think about it is an asset, what canj we do with that asset . If we cant do anything, then there may be a case to rebuild. And if we do rebuild, we have got to bear in mind that what we rebuild needs to be adaptable for future generations to reuse. Demolition firms Say don� t blame us, blame the architects themselves. They could benefit from the input that we� ve had over X Number of years to determine whether we can do anything or not with that building. And equally, what cost there is to actually do what it is that they might suggest. In hastings, This building has been rescued from the bulldozer. A former Newspaper Office being turned into flats and workspaces. The government will publish a strategy on buildings soon. But it hasn� t yet said whether it will put a halt to the wrecking ball.
