Pupils will be starting their first full week of school this morning in england, wales and Northern Ireland, as the chief medical officers in the uk consider what to do about vaccinating teenagers. The current advice is that only 12 to 15 year olds with Health-vulnerabilities'>Health Vulnerabilities should be offered the covid jab. The government says the measures in place in englands schools strike a balance between safety and reducing disruption. Heres our Education Editor Branwen jeffreys. Teacher Owen Harvey started 2021 in hospital with coronavirus. He was away from his primary School Class for months. Barely able to walk, owen gradually built back his strength in his garden. So this School Year is a big step back to normal for this teacher, now vaccinated, and for pupils, wholl be able to mix freely in the playground. Were just excited to get Everybody back into school and to get back to something like a normal curriculum, do assemblies again, get that lovely social feeling that schools have been missing out on so much of, and just get back to being school as normal. Testing started in some of englands secondary schools last week. Its the main precaution in place this term. The top government doctors across the uk have another decision. Should they offer the vaccine to all 12 to is year olds . Experts say the benefits arent great enough. Its a milder illness in teenagers. Schools will be trying to return to their usual routines and to reassure pupils. School leaders need the choice to be able to adapt the Contingency Framework and actually make it relevant to the local need rather than the national need. So if we need to make adjustments to the measures we put in place to minimise the risk, that we have the choice to do that, and we can do it immediately, that we do not have to wait. Owen has been walking his way back to Health, back to the classroom he loves, like many parents and pupils, hoping this School Year will be so much better than the last. Branwen jefferys, Bbc News.

Get the news, Travel And Weather where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. Researchers from Imperial College London say theyve found a link between Air Pollution and how badly youre affected by covid. A report commissioned by the mayor found being exposed to toxic air before the pandemic increased your risk of needing Hospital Treatment if you caught the virus. Experts say improving Air Quality is crucial to help people live Healthier lives. New figures suggest unemployment in london is higher than the rest of the country, with the impacts of the Pandemic And Brexit being felt on the jobs market. Thats from the Office For National Statistics Bbc London has been analysing the data. Theres no Doubt Ourjobs Market has been hit hardest and recovered slower than anywhere else. It does also depend, though, where you live. The purple areas on this Map Show the west like ealing, brent, Hounslow And Richmond have struggled most, perhaps due to so much being tied to heathrow while the southeast boroughs seem to have fared a bit better, with more people in work. Theres more from marc later on our lunchtime programme. The bbc has launched a campaign to collect Sports Kit and give it to young people who need it most. Its called kit out the nation. This school in gravesend has been donated Tennis Rackets from the Queens Club in kensington. It means that. A chance that they wouldnt have had previously, that they now have, that we can also use for extra curricular activities after school. And if parents or children want to borrow them after school, during the holidays, then we can loan them to them. Lets Take A Look at the travel. We have minor delays on the Circle Line due to some trains being cancelled all other Tube Lines are running normally. And for all the latest Travel News where you are, tune into your bbc local Radio Station. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Its another lovely day of weather again across the capital today. Plenty more blue Sky And Sunshine to come and above average temperatures for this time of year. There are few issues with Mist And Fog around this morning, so poor visibility in places, but that is set to lift and clear fairly readily and we should see lots of Sunshine Break through long sunny spells as we head through this afternoon, perhaps a bit of fair Weather Cloud here and there. A Light Southeasterly wind and its that thats pushing the warmer, drier air our way, so there wont be as much cloud as there was last week. It will, of course, stay dry and well see Temperatures Peak in the Mid 20s in celsius easily perhaps 26 or 27 Degrees Celsius in a few spots. Now, as we head through this evening and overnight, well do the whole thing all over again. So were expecting clear spells, therell be some Mist And Fog forming perhaps into Tomorrow Morning, temperatures on the mild side. Feeling rather humid, as well, as we start off the day tomorrow. Tomorrow, more sunshine and, again, slightly higher temperatures we could see them peak at around 28 Degrees Celsius. Wednesday is the last day of the heat and the sunshine because we are set to see a Weather Front sweep its way eastwards on Wednesday Night into thursday, and there will be some outbreaks of rain. Well, im back in around half an hour, but now back to dan and Louise Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Dan Walker and louise minchin. It is 6 32am, Monday Morning.

This Morning A Union Representing School Leaders has said its looking forward to welcoming pupils back, but that its essential the government responds rapidly if data suggests more Safety Measures in schools are needed. Lets speak to our reporterJohn Maguire now. Hes at a school in Weston Super Mare where pupils will be getting their lateral flow tests this morning. Good morning, how will it work . Let me tell good morning, how will it work . L9t me tell you. Good morning. Remember when going Back To School used to be about sewing labels into childrens blazers, polishing their shoes, making sure pencil cases where new and folders were ready to go. These days it is about testing, testing, testing. They have been doing it for quite a while. Some slight differences, these are new Test Kits that have arrived at the school, so children will not have to put the swap at the back of their throat, they are just a nasal swab. Potentially much easier for children. Here in the sports hall, once again somewhere that is used to voting excellence, it becomes like a medical environment, so you have ten Testing Stations when children coming here. Firstly children from years seven to 11 and throughout the rest of the day the other Year Groups will come and get their tests and back to normal Tomorrow Morning.

I am a mum to three kids. I have a | am a mum to three kids. I have a three year old, six year old and a ten year old and they are all back at school. It is my three year olds first time in nursery, so we are very anxious and excited. I know the schools have done so much of the summer to try to put Safety Measures in place. The problem is that sage has already said that because of schools and universities opening, a surge in cases could happen and that is not because schools are dangerous places at all, it is because the logistics of how schools are, the ventilation will be difficult, indoor spaces, overcrowding, and now there is no bubbles any more. And so we are expecting to have a surge in cases but that will then translate into how many people end up in hospitals and also think we are always hearing about unvaccinated groups, they are our children. Our 12 to is year olds, thejcvi decided it wasnt safe to vaccinate helping children but that is a decision still up in the air because we are looking at other countries. America, millions of 12 to is year olds have been vaccinated. Germany, italy, china have completed the programme, they will complete it in october, so i still feel that i think the surge in cases might be the deciding factor of whether the Vaccination Programme is rolled out to 12 to is year olds because i as a gp and getting those questions, getting some anxiety. Excitement, people are happy to go back. But also as a doctor i am seeing a covid in my surgery, in my children in children, i hospitalised a is year old with mild asthma, heart covid, sEverely sick and now in hospital. I cannot help as a doctor to think that could have been a preventable admission. He did not need to be at stake if he had had the vaccine.

This is not a change in any way but what we are seeing is the symptoms of long covid also because in the pandemic we didnt have enough data and didnt really understand the long term implications. Now we do. I am seeing respiratory problems, chronic fatigue, aches and pains, headaches, chronic loss of smell for up to six months, i am seeing peoples livelihoods affected and we are seeing those conditions in children, as well, so it is the post viral chronic conditions that we know vaccination is prevent. There was a paper done by guys and thomases, and the research shows that people who have had two doses of the covid vaccine, it harms their chances of post viral complications.

If i can take ten seconds and Everybody else watching, if you have a cup of tea or doing something at home getting ready for work, for ten seconds. All i need to is examine yourself. Three fingers around the breast tissue, men and women, because men can get it as well. Looks like skin changes, feel around the nipple, around the armpit, feel for lumps and bumps.

I know there is a lot of animosity that people are saying i am not see my patients face to face, that is a complex problem that we have in general practice, we are overwhelmed, mentioned the lack of flu vaccines, but we are offering face to face appointments. I am a Duty Doctor Today and i was duty doctor last friday. 15 of my observations were face to face because im getting the sickest people in my surgery so i can examine them. The problem is we are seeing overwhelmingly sick people with covid still coming into surgery so unlike other spaces we have the most clinically vulnerable people in our space. To keep them safe we cannot get Everybody in all the time, we have to do a Triage System which has a telephone and video. Also it highlights with Sarah Harding that actually we need to be picking up symptoms early, we need to be diagnosing early, and if you can examine yourself, feel a lump, please do not hesitate to call the doctor because we will see you, we are open and you will get a face to face stop this time, if anyone has briefly sparked, because im dealing with grief a lot in general practice, the good Brief Trust has a lot of information but please dont grieve alone because the pandemic has hit a lot of people.

England maintained their perfect run in World Cup Qualifying against andorra with a 4 0 victory Last Night as they played at wembley for the first time since their euro 2020 final defeat. Manchester Unitedsjesse Lingard scored two of the Goals Captain Harry kane added a penalty before Bukayo Saka marked his 20th birthday by scoring a fourth.

Critics say the rise would be disproportionately loaded on to younger and lower paid workers, while small businesses are warning that an increase could sEverely impact their recovery from covid restrictions. Ninas looking at this for us this morning. So much to talk about. It is a huge issue. ,. ,. ,. , issue. Yes, at one of those issues where people issue. Yes, at one of those issues where people think, issue. Yes, at one of those issues where people think, yeah, issue. Yes, at one of those issues where people think, yeah, more | issue. Yes, at one of those issues where people think, yeah, more Money for Social Care but then it is Human Nature to think, but what will it cost me . Yes, good morning this rumoured increase will impact employers as well as their employees. So whats the problem with this approach . This all centres around the contributions we make to national insurance. If youre an employee, this is a tax on your earnings. If youre Self Employed, its a tax on your profit. That Money goes into a central fund and from there you can access benefits. They include the State Pension, statutory sick pay, maternity leave, or entitlement to unemployment benefits. You pay national insurance if youre an employee earning more than £181; a week, or Self Employed and making a profit of £6,515 or more a year. How much you pay depends on the amount you earn. But you dont pay if youre of State Pension age. Campaigners say this is unfair, as the burden falls on younger, often less well paid workers. Its estimated that a 1 rise in personal national Insurance Contribution would see a 21 year old earning £20,000 a year paying £104 more a year. A 21 year old earning £50,000 would pay an additional £404. Whereas a 66 year old, even one earning as much as £50,000 a year, would pay zero. Employers currently pay 13. 8 of their profits as the main national insurance rate. So, an increase in tax means less to spend on investment and jobs. Small businesses have told us an increase could devastate them, at a time when many are still recovering from the impacts of the pandemic. Raising national Insurance Tax would have the potential to limit the recovery in jobs for the wider recovery because it makes the cost of employing someone that much more expensive at a time that businesses are facing loads of other costs at the same time. What would be far better is for the government to look at ways of boosting the wider recovery because that will help deliver the Tax Revenue needed to help support public services, but also the wider economy. The government told us it wouldnt comment on speculation around tax changes but as youve been hearing they certainly havent denied it. They did tell us, though, that throughout the pandemic it has provided businesses with billions of pounds of support including loans, Vat Cuts and the furlough scheme. That comes to an end at The End of september. There is widespread public agreement that they need to be serious reform in Social Care. Most families will be in a situation of navigating the system or know someone who is and it feels expensive and often doesnt feel fair but it is about how it is paid for. Lots of people argue a sliding scale into Income Tax is much more fair, especially if there is an upper limit but we should find out in the next two to three days. Thank ou. Its one of londons most famous attractions but Big Ben has been largely silent for the last four years while an £80 million Restoration Project has been under way. The refurbishment has been held up by the pandemic but now the countdown to completion is on. Tim muffett is at the Clock Face at elizabeth tower for us this morning.

What is spot to be in. The elizabeth tower, home to the World Bell Big Ben. Construction started in 1843, completed in 1859 but for the past four in 1843, completed in 1859 but for the past four years in 1843, completed in 1859 but for the past four years the in 1843, completed in 1859 but for the past four years the tower in 1843, completed in 1859 but for the past four years the tower has been pretty much surrounded with scaffolding and that is because the largest Restoration Project in its history is under way. It has been quite a project, more expensive and gone on a little longer than had been originally planned. This scaffold which surrounds it is, construction fans, one of the most complicated Ever erected in the uk. It is free standing so as not to cause more damage to the tower itself because pollution, Bomb Damage during the second world war, had left this building in urgent need of repairs. They have been ongoing for four years for team are relieved to say that the Finish Line is finally in sight. Countdown to completion. One of the biggest Restoration Jobs Ever undertaken on a Landmark British Building is approaching the Finish Line. Good to see you, ian. And you. What is it youre doing here . Were servicing the rollers. This is one of the bits that we couldnt actually get to and service while the minute hands were on. If youre a clock mechanic, this is like the Champions League and the World Cup rolled into one, id imagine, this project. Working on this clock will be a once in a lifetime opportunity. To actually have taken it all to pieces, putting it back together again, and then carry on looking after it for a few more years its just going to be fantastic. Typically, its this the great clock of westminster that activates the hammer, which strikes the great bell or Big Ben, as its known. We filmed the clock before it was taken off site for restoration. It should be reinstalled soon. And five years ago, we also saw why restoration was necessary. This elevation, the Water Ingress is actually coming into this Clock Face. And as you can see, its actually affecting and rusting away the ironwork. This is in so much better condition than it was four or five years ago, isnt it . Its all been taken back to the bare frame. Any damage that was done to it, its now been coated, painted back up to its original colour. One of the most striking things you notice is the colour of the Clock Faces. For many years, the minute demarcations, the numbers and the Clock Hands were painted black. But during the refurbishment, as many layers of paint were stripped away, it became clear that they were originally this shade of blue its called Prussian Blue and that is what theyve been repainted in. This Restoration Project was originally budgeted at £29 million. The total bill is now set to exceed 80 million. As you peel off the layers of this building, you find more and more that needs to be done. When were taking out one piece of stain, adjacent stains often needed to be replaced. Its one of those things, until you can get up close to it, its very difficult to see the scope of repair. The pandemic also brought work to a halt for sEveral months, so the tower� s been covered up for longer than expected. Its sad that i cant see it, you know just, were here for one night and then. Big bens, like, covered. Yeah, its covered. Weve been here for two years. We havent seen it open. It looks lovely, doesnt it . It looks ugly, doesnt it . Yeah, no, we need it back. I mean, already, you can kind of see the restoration. With the Clock Mechanism out of action, a computerised system has meant that, on special occasions, Big Ben has still been struck. Were standing in the belfry of the elizabeth tower and it was specially constructed so that the chiming bells for the four quarters could be heard right across london. Theres one piece of damage here thats been deliberately left alone. This crack appeared when Big Ben was struck during a test in 1858. The hammer was too heavy, but it gives the bell its unique tone. This is london. Bong. It should be e the Note E but it does give it a slightly flat sound a very serious sound, in fact. So thats one bit of repairing you didnt want to do. Thats right, yes. No change to the bell whatsoEver because its become the familiar note. A much loved building largely hidden for the past few years slowly revealing itself once more. The level of Expertise And Craftsmanship which has gone into this project is quite extraordinary. When the scaffold was erected and they saw how badly damaged a lot of they saw how badly damaged a lot of the stonework was, individual pieces had to be taken away. Replacement stone was sourced from a quarry near doncaster. Each individual piece was worked on for two to three weeks before being placed back. It is quite an extraordinary Project And Thatis quite an extraordinary project and that is really why the cost has gone up that is really why the cost has gone up far more than was originally anticipated. Bomb damage, pollution, even the paint that had been applied during previous restoration had caused more damage. So why is it called Big Ben, the bell . Nobody is entirely sure. One theory is that it is named after sir benjamin hall, who oversaw the installation of the bell. Another was that it was named after Champion Heavyweight Boxer at the time. Who knows for sure . Well. One thing we know is that the sound of the Big Bell has been largely absent from westminster for the past four years but hopefully on new Years Eve It Will be struck and then in the new year when this project is all wrapped up It Will be ringing out on the hour and Every Quarter Hour across westminster so it can be heard across london, as well. Those familiar tones we can look forward to hearing. From this spectacular spot, these amazing views, we can see right across london, we are going to pass over to the newsroom is where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. Researchers from Imperial College London say theyve found a link between Air Pollution and how badly youre affected by covid. A report commissioned by the mayor found being exposed to toxic air before the pandemic increased your risk of needing Hospital Treatment if you caught the virus. Experts say improving Air Quality is crucial to help people live Healthier lives. New figures suggest unemployment in london is higher than the rest of the country, with the impacts of the Pandemic And Brexit being felt on the jobs market. Thats from the Office For National Statistics. Bbc london has been analysing the data. Theres no Doubt Ourjobs Market has been hit hardest and recovered slower than anywhere else. It does also depend, though, where you live. The purple areas on this Map Show the west like ealing, brent, Hounslow And Richmond have struggled most, perhaps due to so much being tied to heathrow while the South East Boroughs seem to have fared a bit better, with more people in work. Theres more from marc later on our lunchtime programme. The bbc has launched a campaign to collect Sports Kit and give it to young people who need it most. Its called kit out the nation. This school in gravesend has been donated Tennis Rackets it means that. A chance that they wouldnt have had previously, that they now have, that we can also use for extra curricular activities after school. And if parents or children want to borrow them after school, during the holidays, then we can loan them to them. Lets Take A Look at the travel.

Its another lovely day of weather again across the capital today. Plenty more blue Sky And Sunshine to come and above average temperatures for this time of year. There are few issues with Mist And Fog around this morning, so poor visibility in places, but that is set to lift and clear fairly readily and we should see lots of Sunshine Break through long sunny spells as we head through this afternoon, perhaps a bit of fair Weather Cloud here and there. A light south easterly wind and its that thats pushing the warmer, drier air our way, so there wont be as much cloud as there was last week. It will, of course, stay dry and well see Temperatures Peak in the Mid 20s in celsius easily perhaps 26 or 27 Degrees Celsius in a few spots. Now, as we head through this evening and overnight, well do the whole thing all over again. So were expecting clear spells, therell be some Mist And Fog forming perhaps into Tomorrow Morning, temperatures on the mild side. Feeling rather humid, as well, as we start off the day tomorrow. Tomorrow, more sunshine and, again, slightly higher temperatures we could see them peak at around 28 Degrees Celsius. Wednesday is the last day of the heat and the sunshine because we are set to see a Weather Front sweep its way eastwards on Wednesday Night into thursday, and there will be some outbreaks of rain.

Pupils will be starting their first full week of school this morning in england, wales and Northern Ireland, as the chief medical officers in the uk consider what to do about vaccinating teenagers. The current advice is that only 12 to 15 year olds with Health-vulnerabilities'>Health Vulnerabilities should be offered the covid jab. The government says the measures in place in england s schools strike a balance between safety and reducing disruption. Here s our Education Editor Branwenjeffreys. Teacher Owen Harvey started 2021 in hospital with coronavirus. He was away from his primary School Class for months. Barely able to walk, owen gradually built back his strength in his garden. So this School Year is a big step back to normal for this teacher, now vaccinated, and for pupils, wholl be able to mix freely in the playground. Were just excited to get Everybody back into school and to get back to something like a normal curriculum, do assemblies again, get that lovely social feeling that schools have been missing out on so much of, and just get back to being school as normal. Testing started in some of englands secondary schools last week. Its the main precaution in place this term. The top government doctors across the uk have another decision. Should they offer the vaccine to all 12 to 15 year olds . Experts say the benefits arent great enough. Its a milder illness in teenagers. Schools will be trying to return to their usual routines and to reassure pupils. School leaders need the choice to be able to adapt the Contingency Framework and actually make it relevant to the local need rather than the national need. So if we need to make adjustments to the measures we put in place to minimise the risk, that we have the choice to do that, and we can do it immediately, that we do not have to wait. Owen has been walking his way back to Health, back to the classroom he loves, like many parents and pupils, hoping this School Year will be so much better than the last. Branwen jefferys, Bbc News.

Its part of henry dimbleby� s national food strategy, and is the first independent review of england s Food System in 75 years. Now the Manchester United forward is calling on people to write to their mp about backing the reports recommendations, as Lebo Diseko reports. Marcus rashford knows what its like to go hungry as a child. His mum worked three jobs just to put food on the table, and sometimes even that wasnt enough. Sometimes we didnt even have a loaf of bread in the house, its that embarrassing to say, but we didnt. All those little struggles and sacrifices that you made, it helps you appreciate Everything ten times more. His campaigning on free school meals forced the government to change its policy in the past. Now the England And Manchester united player is hoping to do so again. He wants people to write to their mps about backing recommendations to end what he calls the Child Hunger pandemic. They include raising the Income Threshold for free school meals to include households earning £20,000 a year or less. It comes as new data from the Food Foundation shows that more households with children under 18 are experiencing Food Insecurity than during the first wave of the pandemic. For marcus, this is personal. About the latest campaign, he said the government says throughout the pandemic provided free school meals for pupils.

Researchers from Imperial College London say theyve found a link between Air Pollution and how badly youre affected by covid. A report commissioned by the mayor found being exposed to toxic air before the pandemic increased your risk of needing Hospital Treatment if you caught the virus. Experts say improving Air Quality is crucial to help people live Healthier lives. New figures suggest unemployment in london is higher than the rest of the country, with the impacts of the Pandemic And Brexit being felt on the jobs market. Thats from the Office For National Statistics Bbc London has been analysing the data. Theres no Doubt Ourjobs Market has been hit hardest and recovered slower than anywhere else. It does also depend, though, where you live. The purple areas on this Map Show the west like ealing, brent, Hounslow And Richmond have struggled most, perhaps due to so much being tied to heathrow while the southeast boroughs seem to have fared a bit better, with more people in work. Theres more from marc later on our lunchtime programme. The bbc has launched a campaign to collect Sports Kit and give it to young people who need it most. Its called kit out the nation. This school in gravesend has been donated Tennis Rackets from the Queens Club in kensington. It means that. A chance that they wouldnt have had previously, that they now have, that we can also use for extra curricular activities after school. And if parents or children want to borrow them after school, during the holidays, then we can loan them to them. Lets Take A Look at the travel. Theres been a Signal Failure on the District Line we have sEvere delays between turnham green and richmond. And minor delays on both the circle and the metropolitan lines due to some trains being cancelled. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Its another lovely day of weather again across the capital today. Plenty more blue Sky And Sunshine to come and above average temperatures for this time of year. There are few issues with Mist And Fog around this morning, so poor visibility in places, but that is set to lift and clear fairly readily and we should see lots of Sunshine Break through long sunny spells as we head through this afternoon, perhaps a bit of fair Weather Cloud here and there. A Light Southeasterly wind and its that thats pushing the warmer, drier air our way, so there wont be as much cloud as there was last week. It will, of course, stay dry and well see Temperatures Peak in the Mid 20s in celsius easily perhaps 26 or 27 Degrees Celsius in a few spots. Now, as we head through this evening and overnight, well do the whole thing all over again. So were expecting clear spells, therell be some Mist And Fog forming perhaps into Tomorrow Morning, temperatures on the mild side. Feeling rather humid, as well, as we start off the day tomorrow. Tomorrow, more sunshine and, again, slightly higher temperatures we could see them peak at around 28 Degrees Celsius. Wednesday is the last day of the heat and the sunshine because we are set to see a Weather Front sweep its way eastwards on Wednesday Night into thursday, and there will be some outbreaks of rain. Well, im back in around an hour do check out our website, Facebook And Instagram for lots more but now back to dan and louise. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Dan Walker and louise minchin. We have got some of the main news for you this morning and we will also be speaking to the Defence Minister atJames Heappey, the armed Forces Minister come in a few moments. Elsewhere today, pupils will be starting the first full week of school as a chief medical officers in the uk consider what to do about vaccinating teenagers. Current advice is only 12 to 15 year olds with Health-vulnerabilities'>Health Vulnerabilities should be offered the jab. The government says measures based in england schools track a balance between safety and reducing disruption. Were joined now by armed Forces MinisterJames Heappey. One of the issues we have been talking about. Good morning. The taliban are claiming they have taken complete control of afghanistan. You are one of the men in the no so what can you tell us, is that true . We dont have can you tell us, is that true . We dont have any can you tell us, is that true . 7 dont have any military presence in the country, so we cant verify that for ourselves but we are hearing the same. What is important to say is that that does not change the calculus. From the moment the taliban took kabul to all intents and purposes we recognised that they where the government of afghanistan, even though that means we dont recognise them in a diplomatic sense. But that required us to work with them in the immediate term to facilitate the evacuation. What matters now is not their military prowess and whether they have been successful in the pangaea. We will continue to look at how they behave as the government of afghanistan before deciding whether we, the uk, and as part of the wider international community, said recognise them and have diplomatic relations. ,. ,. , relations.

Many of our viewers will see the head of the british armed | see the head of the british armed forces say that Everybody got it wrong with regards to afghanistan. Do you think that is a fair assessment now, looking back at the mess of the last few weeks . You have seen reporting mess of the last few weeks . You have seen reporting over mess of the last few weeks . You have seen reporting over the mess of the last few weeks . You have seen reporting over the weekend i seen reporting over the weekend coming out of pakistan that even the taliban were surprised by the speed of the device. People sought to portray different members of the government who are at odds with one another. I dont think they are. The weight that military planning tends to work, and planning for the wider national Security Team within government is that you have most likely course of action and that was that it would take six months or more for the taliban to take control of afghanistan and that is how we as approached the challenge. But we had approached the challenge. But we had a worst Case Course of action, which was that Everything would happen very quickly, and in anticipation of that we changed the Travel Advice and told british national to leave months ahead of kabul falling, and told british national to leave months ahead of kabulfalling, and whilst commercial airlines were still available for people to leave on that instruction. We started the relocation of interpreters. Only 2000 came out in the months before the fall of kabul because they didnt have any sense of urgency and were not fearing for their lives in the way they were once kabul fell. We were putting the fine detail into the only planet in the world that was delivered and although it looked chaotic, the reality is many countries plug themselves into that operation and the evacuation through the barren hotel, because it had been so well planned by our military planners.

We have people who made it out to delfour on commercial airlines before Kabul Airport Close and we are in the process of getting them back. It will take time the dust to settle on exactly how many people we brought out. What is important is that we know pretty much how many people were left in afghanistan who are eligible under arap, just under 200 interpreters and their families, making it a group of about 1100 in all.

And i am intensely fearfulfor what that means for the veterans community, for their mental Health, there have been far too many veterans over the last ten years who have taken their lives as a consequence of their service in afghanistan and many who are still struggling to lead normal lives because of the things they saw and experienced and the mental Health-illness'>Health Illness that they have had as a consequence. This, more than any other time in a time as a government to support the military charities that support our veterans but also for the nations to support those charities because this community, regimental associations, the charities, the mod, people looking out for veterans and their community is how we help people get through a very difficult time like this, as the most important thing we can say to them is that all of this right now is a consequence of political decision making and is not in any way connected to their military service. They should be proud of what they did on their tour. What they did was worth it. Nobody can Ever, Ever take that success away from The End they should hold their heads up high.

This is something that ministers in the mod who have served in afghanistan feel personally responsible for and that is why we have a real sense of mission in making sure we support those who served in the most extraordinary circumstances in helmand a decade or so ago.

A high numberfrom my own regiment, rifles, we can leave no stone unturned in making sure we support our veterans because of this will be an acutely challenging time for them when their service in afghanistan, they call into question their own minds and we need to make sure that their service was worthwhile and we need an arm around him as a nation free government, through our communities, through charities, through the regimental associations, to make sure they are supported.

The Prime Minister was on this programme back injanuary 2020 same social Care Plan would come around in just social Care Plan would come around injust a social Care Plan would come around in just a few weeks. Obviously the pandemic has got in the way of that but this is the week where those announcements are going to be made. I think many of our viewers, not only from todays interview, when we spoke to you last, they will see was a man of principle when they see what is happening in afghanistan. A number of yourfellow what is happening in afghanistan. A number of your fellow ministers say that if those plans for national insurance funding, for Social Care go ahead, and the young are taxed to pay for pay for Social Care for the old, they would step down. Would you resign and that issue . That the you resign and that issue . At the Everybody'>Moment Everybody you resign and that issue . At the Everybody'>Moment Everybody is you resign and that issue . At the Everybody'>Moment Everybody is reacting i you resign and that issue . At the Everybody'>Moment Everybody is reacting to | Everybody'>Moment Everybody is reacting to speculation. I want to see the detail but i will reflect you that as an mp for somerset, whether Social Care challenges particularly acute. Have an ageing population, and i know that Somerset County Council has struggled desperately to meet its responsibilities to people who need adult Social Care, this reform is long overdue and urgently needed. Too many governments over the last few decades have ducked the opportunity when they have had the majority in the house of commons that you need to deal with policy that you need to deal with policy thatis that you need to deal with policy that is this hard. And we now must do it because the Social Contract in the uk is broken. That contract between those of working age paying taxes to support those who are not of working age, it is not affordable any more, it doesnt work. I am a man of principle and i served in government save a government in order to make change. This is a change long overdue. It will not be easy, there is no right answer that Everyone will find consensus around. Every possible solution that the chancellor has will have pros and cons. I dont know the detail of what he is about to propose but i do know this is hard. We need to be honest with the public about that and we need to be ready for the debate that lies ahead is to put in place those reforms because elderly people desperately need it. I think people desperately need it. I think eole people desperately need it. I think people appreciate people desperately need it. I think people appreciate honesty people desperately need it. I think people appreciate honesty this i people desperately need it. I think people appreciate honesty this is l people appreciate honesty this is about Broker Manifesto promises, as well. Let me read you a quote from the papers. This is from someone on the papers. This is from someone on the Prime Ministers top team. After all that has happened in the last 18 months they cannot seriously be thinking about the tax raised on supermarket workers and nurses so that children of sorry homeowners can receive bigger inheritances. This, they say, makes a total mockery of a levelling up agenda. If this is to come in, how can you square that with what has been said about the importance of levelling up under this government . Surrey homeowners. Under this government . Surrey homeowners under this government . Surrey homeowners. You are still referring to something homeowners. You are still referring to something that homeowners. You are still referring to something that is homeowners. You are still referring to something that is speculative. I to something that is speculative. Secondly, there will be an awful lot of your viewers right now who are retired, sitting and listening to that characterisation of the elderly as sitting on big houses that are bought and paid for with savings and shareholdings, he will say, that is not my finances in the slightest. Far too many of my constituents who are retired rely on their State Pension and they are certainly not in a house that is entirely bought and paid for, and they are terrified of falling ill and not being able to afford their own care. This is something that should not be pitted as generation against generation. The Social Contract is that whilst you are of working age you pay your taxes to pay for those who are not working, in anticipation that when you yourself are retired, those who are of working age have that time will do the same for you. Social contract has become dangerously out of balance. This is not an intergenerational thing. There are people who are young who are in Need And Need support, people who are old who are in Need And Need support. We need a Social Contract that is fair for all and we should wait and see what the chancellor says and debate the proposals fiercely but this is not easy, that is why too many governors have ducked this is an issue in the past. Governors have ducked this is an issue in the past. There are clear divisions in issue in the past. There are clear divisions in the issue in the past. There are clear divisions in the party.

Yes, absolutely there are. And there this issue. Yes, absolutely there are. And there will this issue. Yes, absolutely there are. And there will be, this issue. Yes, absolutely there l are. And there will be, inevitably. You just look at 2010 when labour tried to solve this as a Manifesto Commitment. We called it a death tax. In 2017 when we try to solve it as a Manifesto Commitment, labour and the lib dems called it the dementia tax. This is not easy. This will bring with it a fierce political debate. That is why, thats when parliament is at its best. If you cannot do this when you have a majority of 80, you are ducking an issue for another government that comes down the tracks, and in the meantime our councils continue to struggle to deliver their Social Care responsibilities under the current Funding Mechanism and more and more Money from central government cannot be the answer because that is just borrowing for revenue spending, which is frankly irresponsible. We need to deal with this properly. The chancellor needs to come forward with his proposals and we need to scrutinise them and finally make the decision that too many governments have ducked previously. Pcb. Have ducked previously.

That will be the fifth year since 2000 we have had September Temperatures at that sort of level. Whilst we have the Mist And Fog this morning and patchy rain we will see a good deal more sunshine. Short spell because from late on wednesday, mainly thursday, things will start to turn cooler and more thundering once again. If you like your heat and sunshine, enjoy the next three days. Not quite there for some. England, still some patchy Rain And Drizzle here and there through scotland and Northern Ireland. Thick cloud, missed overhead, dense fog across the south but that will clear to sunny spells. Into the afternoon, such a breakthrough in Northern England, eastern scotland, remaining damp and drizzly through some parts of the highlands and islands where they will be more breeze. Elsewhere gentle winds, coming in from a rough southerly direction and that will boost the temperatures, especially with more sunshine. More widely into the mid if not high 20s across england and wales, up to 28 degrees. High teens, low 20s for scotland and Northern Ireland, which for this stage in september is not bad at all. This evening and overnight, patchy Rain And Drizzle in the west of scotland. Dense fog works its way up of scotland. Dense fog works its way up with low cloud across the irish sea, mainly towards the coast of ireland but we will see dense patches of fog free North East wales, midlands and Northern England into Tomorrow Morning and It Will be a few missed out for many, Temperatures 1a to 16 degrees. That is because we have high pressure with us on tuesday. Winds float clockwise and it is that which is tapping into warmth on the new continent, bringing more our way and with southerly winds developing what It Will clear more of that club in scotland and Northern Ireland is a better chance of sunshine here.

Back to you both. A little time to enjoy it. Thank you very much. Sally has some chaos for us. Medical intervention, this is a new wonder. What are yOu Saying about my bulletin . There was chaos in Sao Paulo Last Night, as Brazil And Argentinas World Cup Qualifier was suspended just minutes after kick off, when brazilian Health officials came onto the pitch, as they believe three argentine players had broke Covid Quarantine rules. The visitors walked off the pitch at the Corinthians Arena after the game was stoppped. It came hours after Health'>Brazils Health authorities said that four uk based players had to quarantine. The players at english Premier League clubs are giovani Lo Celso and Cristian Romero of Tottenham And Emiliano Buendia And Emiliano martinez of aston villa. The match was eventually abandoned. Our south american football reporter tim vickery explains the confusion. The problem here is, just as brazil is on the uks red list, so the uk is on the brazils red list. And those whove been in the uk non brazilians who have been in the uk in the last 14 days have to go through a quarantine period. It seems argentina had the backing of Conmebol Conmebol is south americas uefa the the continental football authority, to go ahead at this game, using these players. But Health'>Brazils Health authority clearly didnt agree. England maintained their perfect run in World Cup Qualifying against andorra with a 4 0 victory Last Night as they played at wembley for the first time since their euro 2020 final defeat. Manchester Unitedsjesse Lingard scored two of the Goals Captain Harry kane added a penalty before Bukayo Saka marked his 20th birthday by scoring a fourth. Gareth southgates praised the arsenal winger, who missed the decisive penalty in the final. We think hes a super player, hes 20 years old, the way hes progressed and the maturity hes played with and the talent that he has. Hes a hugely exciting player and hes already produced some big performances for england. So, um, no need from our side for closure. Reigning womens super league champions chelsea lost their Opening Game of the new season. Arsenal won 3 2 in a thriller at the emirates. It was 1 1 at half time but two second half strikes from Beth Mead proved to be the difference. There were over 8,000 fans there. What a final day we have to look forward to in the fourth test between england and india. The tourists looked to have taken charge of the match after some big Hitting Saw them post a target of 368. But england dug in and ended the day on 77 without loss. The series is level at 1 1 ahead of the final test which starts at Old Trafford on friday. We all know that Scoreboard Pressure and Test Cricket on day five brings extra pressure, you know, for both teams. So youd like to think theres still a result possible for, you know, for us. And im sure theyll be thinking the same, as well. So it still leaves the Test Match in a great place. You know, we certainly feel that we can chase down that down those runs on this wicket. But im sure the indians feel that they can bowl us out, as well. Dan evans has been knocked out of the us open he lost in straight sets to russias daniil medvedev. He was nEver really in the match and was comfortably beaten by the second seed in new york. Evans later said he got a good, Healthy lesson. There is one positive to take, though, as evans is set to reach a career high ranking inside the worlds top 25. Red Bulls Max Verstappen has regained the lead in the formula one drivers championship. The 17th win of his career came in front ofjubilant home support, finishing ahead of World Champion Lewis hamilton who he now leads by three points. His Mercedes Team Mate valtteri bottas was third. We need a strategy to be on point, and it wasnt quite perfect, and then we just came out in traffic, so. Even then, if all that was perfect, it would have still been hard to have got at him. So we gave it Everything. Over in ohio, its all set for an enthralling final over in ohio, its all set for an enthralling final day at the solheim cup. The Usa Dominated Yesterdays early foursomes to reduce europes lead to a single point. But after a Topsy Turvy afternoon Fourballs Europe have a slender lead going into todays singles.

Chair of Uk Sport Katherine Grainger says gb are only just getting started. This is a team that has outdone the success of london 2012 and won this incredible array of medals across this incredible variety of sports, and i think. It just feels like this is a team thats still in Development Phase going forward. This is a team that are still bringing in new athletes and new sports, and have constantly growing ambitions. And its a really exciting place to be in and i think we werent sure in the middle of a pandemic if wed have the same sense of optimism and achievement and excitement. And its delivered in spades. So plenty more still to come. Absolutely. Thank you very much, we will see you later. Almost 30 years ago English Football changed beyond all recognition with the introduction of the Premier League. Now a new series looks at how it grew from a controversial breakaway to the most watched Sporting Competition in the world. The first episode looks at the Title Race between Manchester United and blackburn, way back in 1992. Lets Take A Look. The £360 million fortune of Steel Magnate Jack walker was having a direct impact on the Title Race. The return on his investment was being paid back with interest. An alan shearer shirt, please . What size . Small boys. We nEver really had Fan Mail for players, you know . But with alan shearer, it was a different story. It just came in thick and fast. My Mum And Dad were so proud. They couldnt wait to tell Everybody where i worked. 0h, she works for blackburn rovers. 0h, shes alan shearers secretary. If theyd have said i was a surgeon, they were just as proud. The memories werejoined now by Series Producer Adam hopkins from leicester. Good to have you on the programme. Many people will have seen this heavily advertised, telling the story. I suppose it is about where football is but the beginnings of all that and the changes that came in at the start of the 19905.

At the time it was actually quite a controversial Breakaway And Success wasnt exactly guaranteed. Football wasnt exactly guaranteed. Football wasnt in the best place and there wasnt in the best place and there was a bit of infighting between the Football Association and the Football League. This sort of thing came about and it is a good time to look back and when you look back now with the benefit of hindsight, you can start seeing the seeds of the big changes that were to come. For example, the clip you just showed with jack walker, a local benefactor. That is something which now we might see as quite romantic but at the time pats was seen as a lot of Money coming into the game and as we showed, and ensure it moving for a 3. 5 million, that was seen as astronomical and that has been blown out of the water recently.

There were big differences and at the time fans of the Premier League have probably done a bit more homework than fans of the european super league because it was set up in a way that there was a broadcaster behind it and the idea of Relegation And Promotion and is fitted within the known constructs and it was doing something to separate out Premier League to make this new product.

We set out the fact that prior to the Premier League football was not as well watched or marketed, and so we show thatjourney and we tell the story of on the pitch but it is also the media and the Business Story that goes around football, and football is now arguably a tv sport. That certainly was not the case at the start of the 19905. Inevitably that means commercialisation and it means Money goes up and some people might be out price of football and it also means that that gets exported Everywhere and lows more people the quality really increases. We set it out and i suppose people have their own views about whether we have lost or gained more over that time. Gained more over that time. Adam, tell us about gained more over that time.

Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Dan Walker and louise minchin. Our headlines today. Its Back To School for millions of pupils in england and wales, but will new, more relaxed Covid Measures make the grade against fears of a Virus Spike . Back to school, of course, these days means back to testing. And hopefully another step back to normality. Pressure on the prime Minister Borisjohnson faces a growing backlash over plans to increase taxes to pay for Social Care. Small businesses warn an increase in national insurance would devastate their recovery from the effects of Covid 19. What would the hike mean for employers and workers . Ill Take A Look. And fresh from her World Record Beating performance in tokyo, ill be chatting to double Gold Medal Winner Maisie Summers Newton. Ijust basically live me Life And Hope something funny happens. From touring to the tardis John Bishop joins us to talk about comedy during lockdown and joining dr who. Plus, summer is making a comeback. Temperatures in the next few days not only could get to 30 degrees, but will be much warmer than they were in the entirety of august. Full forecast coming up. Good morning. Its monday, the 6th of september. Our top story. Pupils will be starting their first full week of school this morning in england, wales and Northern Ireland, as the chief medical officers in the uk consider what to do about vaccinating teenagers. The current advice is that only 12 to 15 year olds with Health-vulnerabilities'>Health Vulnerabilities should be offered the covid jab. The government says the measures in place in england 5 schools strike a balance between safety and reducing disruption. Here 5 our Education Editor Branwenjeffreys. Teacher Owen Harvey started 2021 in hospital with coronavirus. He was away from his primary School Class for months. Barely able to walk, owen gradually built back his strength in his garden. So this School Year is a big step back to normal for this teacher, now vaccinated, and for pupils, wholl be able to mix freely in the playground. Were just excited to get Everybody back into school and to get back to something like a normal curriculum, do assemblies again, get that lovely social feeling that schools have been missing out on so much of, and just get back to being school as normal. Testing started in some of englands secondary schools last week. Its the main precaution in place this term. The top government doctors across the uk have another decision. Should they offer the vaccine to all 12 to 15 year olds . Experts say the benefits arent great enough. Its a milder illness in teenagers. Schools will be trying to return to their usual routines and to reassure pupils. School leaders need the choice to be able to adapt the Contingency Framework and actually make it relevant to the local need rather than the national need. So if we need to make adjustments to the measures we put in place to minimise the risk, that we have the choice to do that, and we can do it immediately, that we do not have to wait. Owen has been walking his way back to Health, back to the classroom he loves, like many parents and pupils, hoping this School Year will be so much better than the last. Branwen jefferys, Bbc News. The Prime Minister is facing backlash from mps returning to parliament today, over plans to reform the funding of Social Care in england. Many, including prominent conservatives, are angry about reports that hes considering raising national insurance rates, which would break a manifesto pledge. The governments also expected to announce an extra £5. 5 Billion for the nhs. Lets speak to our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. Good correspondent, adam fleming. Morning. Anybody the good morning. Anybody listening to the armed Forces Minister on this programme this morning will clearly understand that this is an issue which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is a which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is a lot which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is a lot going which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is a lot Going On. I which is dividing the party . Yeah, and there is a lot Going On. First | and there is a lot Going On. First of all and there is a lot Going On. First of all today and there is a lot Going On. First of all today we are getting the less controversial starter, which is this extra controversial starter, which is this extra Money, £5. 5 Billion, for the second extra Money, £5. 5 Billion, for the second half extra Money, £5. 5 Billion, for the second half of the financial year for the second half of the financial year for the nhs, to help it get through winter for the nhs, to help it get through winter dealing with covid and dealing winter dealing with covid and dealing with the backlog of people who could not be treated because of covid who could not be treated because of covid we who could not be treated because of covid. We also think that Money will come covid. We also think that Money will come again covid. We also think that Money will come again in the next three years. So that come again in the next three years. So that is come again in the next three years. So that is what is being announced today so that is what is being announced today as so that is what is being announced today. As soon as tomorrow, potentially, we get the more controversial main course, government plans to fund Social Care in England Government plans to fund Social Care in england. They have not even been agreed in england. They have not even been agreed within government departments yet, agreed within government departments yet. Let agreed within government departments yet, let alone announced to the public, yet, let alone announced to the public, but we have a backlash against public, but we have a backlash against it public, but we have a backlash against it because it looks like there against it because it looks like there will against it because it looks like there will be more Money going into there will be more Money going into the system, and so the chancellor thinks the system, and so the chancellor thinks that the system, and so the chancellor thinks that should be paid for by an increase thinks that should be paid for by an increase in thinks that should be paid for by an increase in tax. It looks like Ministers Increase in tax. It looks like ministers have chosen national insurance ministers have chosen national Insurance Contributions to increase. Now people say, some of them, that is the now people say, some of them, that is the wrong now people say, some of them, that is the wrong tax to go for because it is paid is the wrong tax to go for because it is paid for is the wrong tax to go for because it is paid for by people in work but not pensioners, who are the people who are not pensioners, who are the people who are more likely to need the care who are more likely to need the care also, who are more likely to need the care. Also, you get employers saying it is a care. Also, you get employers saying it is a tax care. Also, you get employers saying it is a tax on care. Also, you get employers saying it is a tax onjobs because employers have to pay national contributions for their workers as welt contributions for their workers as welt but contributions for their workers as well.

Time now to get the news, Travel And Weather where you are. Good morning, im sonja jessup. Researchers from Imperial College London say theyve found a link between Air Pollution and how badly youre affected by covid. A report commissioned by the mayor found being exposed to toxic air before the pandemic increased your risk of needing Hospital Treatment if you caught the virus. Experts say improving Air Quality is crucial to help people live Healthier lives. New figures suggest unemployment in london is higher than the rest of the country, with the impacts of the Pandemic And Brexit being felt on the jobs market. Thats from the Office For National Statistics. Bbc london has been analysing the data. Theres no Doubt Ourjobs Market has been hit hardest and recovered slower than anywhere else. It does also depend, though, where you live. The purple areas on this Map Show the west like ealing, brent, Hounslow And Richmond have struggled most, perhaps due to so much being tied to heathrow while the southeast boroughs seem to have fared a bit better, with more people in work. Theres more from marc later on our lunchtime programme. The bbc has launched a campaign to collect Sports Kit and give it to young people who need it most. Its called kit out the nation. This school in gravesend has been donated Tennis Rackets from the Queens Club in kensington. It means that. A chance that they wouldnt have had previously, that they now have, that we can also use for extra curricular activities after school. And if parents or children want to borrow them after school, during the holidays, then we can loan them to them. Lets Take A Look at the travel. Theres been a Signal Failure on the District Line we have sEvere delays between turnham green and richmond. And minor delays on both the circle and the metropolitan lines. Southeastern trains have delays from victoria due to electrical supply problems. Time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello, good morning. Its another lovely day of weather again across the capital today. Plenty more blue Sky And Sunshine to come and above average temperatures for this time of year. There are few issues with Mist And Fog around this morning, so poor visibility in places, but that is set to lift and clear fairly readily and we should see lots of Sunshine Break through long sunny spells as we head through this afternoon, perhaps a bit of fair Weather Cloud here and there. A Light Southeasterly wind and its that thats pushing the warmer, drier air our way, so there wont be as much cloud as there was last week. It will, of course, stay dry and well see Temperatures Peak in the Mid 20s in celsius easily perhaps 26 or 27 Degrees Celsius in a few spots. Now, as we head through this evening and overnight, well do the whole thing all over again. So were expecting clear spells, therell be some Mist And Fog forming perhaps into Tomorrow Morning, temperatures on the mild side. Feeling rather humid, as well, as we start off the day tomorrow. Tomorrow, more sunshine and, again, slightly higher temperatures we could see them peak at around 28 Degrees Celsius. Wednesday is the last day of the heat and the sunshine because we are set to see a Weather Front sweep its way eastwards on Wednesday Night into thursday, and there will be some outbreaks of rain.

L masks in secondary schools, and whole bubbles being sent home after a positive Test Covid restrictions were a fact of life for most pupils before the summer holidays. Now as many children in england, wales and Northern Ireland start their first full week back in the classroom, they should notice a few changes. Our Education Correspondent Elaine Dunkley has been to a Primary School in stalybridge as they celebrated the start of the new term. Come on. Soon as you see them, all the worries drop away and youre, you know, just back to yourjob and its just wonderful. Its Back To School for the children at silver springs primary in stalybridge. Its Back To School for the children at silver springs primary in stalybridge. And leila. Shes excited. Nervous for year one. Cant wait to get started. I do like the fact that shes in a bit of a bubble. Because of the cerebral palsy and her Immune System being so rubbish, i was quite concerned regarding that. If people just follow the rules cos its not that hard, really, is it . And hopefully well get a bit of normality back. Youre loving school, arent you . Shes off. Head Teacher Mrs mason is delighted to welcome the pupils back. This is our reception class. Its their first day of school. Good morning, year one. Oh, youre working so hard already pleased to see. Covid regulations in schools in england have been relaxed. The big Event Today is being able to bring their lunch boxes. So for a whole12 months weve been on disposable packed lunches. Children were very static in their places last year, but now weve got that flexibility to move around a little bit, now we dont have to have those very strict bubbles. Go the challenge is keeping Everyone, safe whilst minimising disruption. The challenge is keeping Everyone safe whilst minimising disruption. One of the big changes this term is that children do not have to be sent home to isolate if they come into contact with a positive case of covid. Instead, they must take a test. Really, getting that message across to parents about the importance of not sending children in when theyre ill. If their childs got symptoms, get a pcr test, to keep them off school and get tested. 12,14,16. Its been a nice day because of meeting my new teachers and sometimes seeing my own teachers that ive really miss, and sometimes seeing my old teachers that ive really missed, and when i see all my friends, i make new friends. Oh, wow, ouryearsixes are wearing their ties. You look so smart. Youre going to have a great year, arent you . June last year, a very poignant moment was when one of our children had drawn a picture of herFamily And Underneath it shed written a sentence in her. Shes in year one. A very simple sentence i hope my family dont die. You know, and that really brings it home to you, you know . This is what some children are carrying round with them and thats why, even though they look really happy theyre all happy to be back this morning, you know we cant underestimate those other feelings and we need to make sure that we build in the time to address them. How many ones have we got . As well as emotional support, there is vital Catch Up work Going On. Weve lost some of their Core Reading, writing, some of the basic maths, which are the building blocks and the foundations for Everything, really. So thats sort of our focus over the next couple of years, really. How many tens have we got . Is it hard, being a teacher . Oh, yeah its always hard being a teacher but, you know, there are more good times than bad. Apparently in year six you now get detentions which i hope i do not get. For the new term, the pupils have big ambitions. This year i hope i might be my Team Captain of, like, my. Of my team, called, like, the diamonds. J two times table. Yay covid means teachers and families have to remain cautious. But there is also hope that pupils will be able to enjoy a normal life at school. Children this year are definitely looking forward to being able to go on a trip you know, the things that weve missed being able to to take children out of this environment, beyond our locality and get rid of this sense of feeling boxed in, and just, you know, widen the horizons, really. Fives times what equals 50 . Im really excited to be back at school. I feel like it is going to be a whole new year. The important thing is were together and were going i to stay safe together.

Good morning this rumoured increase will impact employers as well as their employees. So whats the problem with this approach . This all centres around the contributions we make to national insurance. If youre an employee, this is a tax on your earnings. If youre Self Employed, its a tax on your profit. That Money goes into a central fund and from there you can access benefits. They include the State Pension, statutory sick pay, maternity leave, or entitlement to unemployment benefits. You pay national insurance if youre an employee earning more than £181; a week, or Self Employed and making a profit of £6,515 or more a year. How much you pay depends on the amount you earn. But you dont pay if youre of State Pension age. Campaigners say this is unfair, as the burden falls on younger, often less well paid workers. How much would an Increase Cost workers . Well, a rise of 1 would see someone earning around the national average salary of around £30,000 paying almost £200 a year more. But look at this. A 66 year old even one earning as much as £50,000 a year wouldnt pay anything. There are also implications for employers. They pay 13. 8 of their profits as the main national insurance rate. At the moment, Every penny counts for some businesses. Paying more tax means having less to invest, and some have told us this increase would devastate them as they try to build back from covid. Raising national Insurance Tax would have the potential to limit the recovery in jobs for the wider recovery because it makes the cost of employing someone that much more expensive at a time that businesses are facing loads of other costs at the same time. What would be far better is for the government to look at ways of boosting the wider recovery because that will help deliver the Tax Revenue needed to help support public services, but also the wider economy. The government told us it wouldnt comment on speculation around tax changes but as youve been hearing they certainly havent denied it. They did tell us, though, that throughout the pandemic it has provided businesses with billions of pounds of support including loans, Vat Cuts and the furlough scheme. That ends at The End of september. One of the main criticisms of this increase in taxes that it is a flat tax, and so that 1 increase on someone earning £50,000 will probably hurt a lot less in summary only, say, £18,000. It looks as though that is how It Will play out, according to newspaper reports this morning and we will find out the next couple of days.

There were a number of people sat on their own, watching the comedy at home and i thought they wouldnt normally come to a gig because you when you go to a gig in the interval, people get their phones out and i have got a friend who started this campaign and he lived in weymouth of getting people on buses to talk to Each Otherjust wearing a badge saying give it a 90, wearing a badge saying give it a go, say hello. It was very simple and i thought if you take entertainment, you have something in common, you are in the same place at the same time on the same day but you nEver normally to anyone you didnt come with. So we are going to start this campaign. A few mental Health charities, but also some activity charges. When you arrive at the venue you can put a badge on and it is an icebreaker. Im not saying its a dating thing. Its a dating thing. Come here often . To its a dating thing. Come here often . To blokes its a dating thing. Come here often . To blokes going its a dating thing.
