the 12th june. our main story. the green party will launch its election manifesto in brighton and hove today. they're promising a £50 billion a year investment into the nhs and social care. they say it'll be paid for by a tax on higher earners and the wealthy. our political correspondent hannah miller has the details. cheering. as the green party try to get noticed, they're promising a game—changing transformation of the country, pledging to mend what they call broken britain by increasing taxes on higher earners and the wealthy. the promises include an annual 1% wealth tax on individuals with assets above £10 million, rising to 2% for those whose assets amount to over a billion. they also say they'll increase national insurance payments for those earning over £50,000 and introduce a home improvement programme to cut energy costs and make homes warmer. the green party know that their leaders are highly unlikely to become the next prime minister. but what they're hoping for is to get enough mps to have influence over whoever does win the election. the conservatives used their manifesto launch to promise a 2p cut in national insurance within the next three years. among their ways of saving money is cuts to the welfare bill of £12 billion a year. as for labour, their manifesto will be published in full tomorrow. but today they're focusing on potholes in england, putting forward an extra £61; million annually to fix a million more every year. in this week of manifesto launches, there are promises and pledges aplenty as the parties hope to catch your attention and, of course, your vote. hannah miller, bbc news. well, we'll be talking to the green party's co—leader adrian ramsay just after 8:30. but first, our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us from westminster. what will the green party be trying to achieve with their manifesto? well, the big challenge, sally, for the green party of england and wales andindeed the green party of england and wales and indeed for pretty much any party other than the conservatives and labour, is to try to persuade voters to back the party where they acknowledge that they are extremely unlikely to be in downing street come the other side ofjuly the 4th. and for the green party, therefore, they want to persuade people to vote for them in order to shape the debate, and the clearest way in which they want to shake the debate is in their name. they want to focus particularly on energy and environmental issues, and so when they unveil their policy prospectus across all sorts of issues today, some of the most eye—catching policies as you heard from hannah there will be on insulating homes and public buildings and installing heat pumps. that is a £50 billion programme that they are proposing, as well as a carbon tax on businesses, designed to notjust generate money for the exchequer but also change the behaviour of those businesses. but i do think there is something new about the green party in this election as well, which is that obviously since the last election, and labour would acknowledge indeed embrace this, the labour party has moved a little bit to the right, or towards the centre, and the green party is trying to sweep up some of those left—wing voters who previously voted for the labour party but might not necessarily be enthused by their direction under sir keir starmer. so the green party, and you heard this in the seven way bbc debate last friday, trying to make an argument that the conservatives and labour are too similar, and as a result people should vote for them. the green party have had some issues in recent weeks with candidates, we should say. they had to ditch a few candidates, four or five, should say. they had to ditch a few candidates, four orfive, after should say. they had to ditch a few candidates, four or five, after some allegations of anti—semitic and extreme comments were made online. the greens hope, that they are standing across the country, that they might be able to take the representation of one mp for the last 14 years up to four at this general election, and this manifesto is a crucial opportunity where people are watching them, where they can try and persuade people to give them a chance.— the liberal democrats have given more details of their plan to replace the water industry regulator, 0fwat, with a new body called the clean water authority to tackle the dumping of sewage. they say it would have its headquarters in an area which has been badly affected by the problem, and would be able to revoke the licences of poor performers. jon has more on today's news now, including some more politics and another big debate last night. indeed, yes. the leaders of scotland's five main political parties have clashed in a special debate programme on a range of issues from how to tackle the cost of living crisis to the problems faced by the nhs as well as scottish independence. 0ur scotland editor james cook was watching. 60 minutes, five party leaders, one general election that could change the country... and three big topics. first, the economy. what worries me about what lies ahead is that there's the threat of more spending cuts. anas has not been straight... i'm being straight. there is going to be £18 billion of public spending cuts, and we've had enough austerity from the tories. we don't want to imposed it on us by any incoming labour government. so let me be straight with you, john. - let me be straight- with the public as well. we will raise revenue, i and we'll raise revenue by a windfall tax on the oil and gas giants, which would raise - £10 billion, a measure you oppose. read my lips. no austerity under labour. i've seen poverty. i've never seen anything like this. this is the worst cost of living crisis since the end of rationing. the liberal democrats immediately would reverse the two—child cap on benefits. if we look at the covid pandemic and the war in ukraine, there has been a massive shock to not only our domestic economy but economies across the globe, and the government at a uk level have tried to provide some universal support and some targeted support. it is disingenuous of douglas ross to pretend that times are hard. times are not hard for the super wealthy. they've made out like bandits since covid. their wealth has doubled and tripled. applause. and the second topic, the nhs. my mother, who's 93, _ waited six hours for an ambulance, another two hours outside the hospital before - she was admitted. is our nhs broken? the nhs is run from edinburgh, but the scottish government's budget is determined in part at westminster. that austerity, that cutting taxes for the wealthy means you have to cut to the bone and cut again and again. and that took us to the third topic — independence. 0n the economy, on poverty, on health, on public services are all crying out for ministerial attention, but have been starved of that because of the constitutional debate that has gripped our politics for so long. i don't support independence. i don't support a referendum. but i can understand why so many people across scotland were looking for an escape route from a tory government that they thought we couldn't get rid of or from a labour party that they thought couldn't win. people are really struggling in scotland today because of the effects of 1a years of austerity, because of brexit and the cost of living crisis. all of those are a product of decisions taken at westminster. tory decisions. all of those decisions are a product of decisions taken in westminster. it's not the nhs that we've been discussing today, it's not the education system, it's not carers. it's going to be independence above everything else, and scotland will suffer as a result of that. audience and politicians had plenty to say last night. 0njuly the 4th, it's your turn. james cook, bbc news, glasgow. the outlook for progress to end the fighting in gaza is looking uncertain after hamas issued its first formal response to the ceasefire plan outlined by president biden and backed by the un security council. the hamas statement said it was ready to deal positively with efforts to reach a settlement, but an unnamed israeli official said the response amounted to a rejection. the us president, joe biden, has flown in to support his son hunter, who has been found guilty on three charges in a federal gun trial. mr biden said he will respect a jury's decision to convict his 54—year—old son of lying on an application to buy a weapon. 0ur reporter carl nassman has more. an embrace between president and son. just hours after the historic conviction, joe biden flew to delaware to meet with hunter biden and his family, saying in a statement, "i'm the president but i'm also a dad." he also vowed to respect the verdict in this case, which the jury needed just three hours to reach. prosecutors had argued that hunter biden committed a crime by lying on a form about his drug use when buying a revolver in 2018. that gun, along with remnants of crack and drug paraphernalia, were discovered in his car by his then partner halle biden, who is also his sister—in—law, the widow of his brother beau, who died of cancer three years earlier. hunter biden had already described his drug addiction in a book. audio excerpts read by the author himself were played in court. smoking crack cocaine every three days soon became every two days, then every other day, then every hour of everyday. his defence argued that hunter biden wasn't using around the time he bought the gun. but the jury rejected that. meanwhile, donald trump insists he was only convicted in his own criminal trial because president biden is using the legal system to persecute his political opponent. those claims are undermined by the guilty verdict against the current president's own son. this verdict, though, will be political, especially on the campaign trail, with only a few weeks until the first presidential debate. for years, many republicans have tried to tie hunter biden�*s actions to his father. that rhetoric is ramping up once again. let's remember—

nassib on, bbc news, delaware. an invasive species of mosquito known as tiger mosquitoes have been linked to a significant rise in cases of dengue fever across europe. the european centre for disease prevention and control says climate change is creating favourable conditions for the insect. authorities have been monitoring their spread as far north as paris, where the olympic games will take place at the end ofjuly. the world health organization says alcohol, ultra—processed foods, tobacco and fossil fuels are killing 2.7 million people every year in europe. it says powerful industries interfere in government policies aimed at improving health and regulating the marketing of such products. here, the prosecution is expected to open its case in the retrial of former nurse lucy letby

because of flooding on its runways. eyewitnesses at palma de mallorca airport described chaotic scenes, with flooded car parks and passengers running for cover from the water pouring through the roof. all flights were grounded. 0ur reporter chi chi izundu has more. heavy rain, heavy flooding. a storm caused nearly 9cm of rain to fall in less than an hour in palma in majorca. this is spain's third biggest airport. passengers were not able to enter or leave the terminal building and officials activated an emergency plan and temporarily rerouted flights to other airports because of the impossibility of operating safely. i got the notification that my flight got cancelled, so it should have been today evening, and now we are checking for other options that go to germany tonight. it has been cancelled, apparently. and i was going on a business trip. so let's see. last year, some 31 million people passed through this airport's doors. and now with flights resuming, 0peration clean up can begin. chi chi izundu, bbc news. friday night will see the euros kick off in munich, with scotland taking on the german hosts. john watson is in the city now for us, and fans are already arriving. john, how's it looking over there? good morning, welcome to munich ahead of the start of football's european championships here on friday night. the hosts germany staging the major tournament for the first time since the world cup back in 20 2006. england and scotland have both qualified, scotland face the tough task of facing the hosts, germany, here on friday night. scotland will be cheered on by anywhere between 100,000 and 200,000 scottish fans, who will be arriving here ahead of kick—off over the coming days. it might look quiet in one of the main squares here at the moment, but that will all change as we get closer to kick—off on friday night. those fans hoping to see scotland achieve something they haven't managed before, and that is making it out of the group at a major tournament. england will begin their campaign two days later in gelsenkirchen against serbia. their manager gareth southgate admitting this is probably his final chance of winning some silverware as manager of england, with his future in the job still uncertain. that match against serbia has been classed as high risk by the local authorities here, with security of course being stepped up ahead of the start of the tournament on friday night. i think with any major tournament, though, it brings with it a sense of national pride, national unity, a real sense of hope for all those teams who will be competing. we can expect some tears, plenty of singing, dare i say it a plenty shoot—out also on the way, all roads pointed towards the final in berlin onjuly pointed towards the final in berlin on july the pointed towards the final in berlin onjuly the 14th. we are getting excited! 0nly onjuly the 14th. we are getting excited! only a couple of days to go. john will be there throughout. and we will be talking about scotland and a couple of minutes. now, carol is here, and she has bought a friend. who is that? look at this sheep here. good morning to you. it will remain cloudy in eastern areas with showers fewer and further between, but the west will brighten up quite nicely through the course of the afternoon. we still have quite a brisk wind coming down the north sea coastline. we are looking at quite a few showers, but moving out towards the west, and after that cloudy start for most, the cloud will start to break up through the day and we will see a bit more sunshine and the odd shower here and there. these are our temperatures. still below average for the time of year, the average incidentally north to south is about 16 to 20 degrees, so still feeling cool forjune. as we head on through the evening and overnight, many showers will fade. the skies were clear as the wind changes direction to more south—westerly, and then we have got a weather front showing its hand in the west, introducing some cloud initially to northern ireland, followed by some rain, and the wind is starting to pick up. temperature wise tonight, another chilly one, temperatures widely in single digits. locally in scotland, the temperature could fall away to two or three degrees. into tomorrow, we start off with a lot of sunshine around, the cloud continuing to build from the west, then in will come the rain, moving from the west towards the east. gusty winds through the irish sea, in the areas adjacent to it. we have had gusts locally of up to 50 mph. tomorrow's temperatures, 11 in the north to about 18 as we push down towards the south—east, so temperature is perhaps a little higher, still below average for the time of year. it is still a bit chilly! it is almost 20 past six. we'll get another glimpse of how the uk economy is faring this morning, with the latest gdp figures out at seven o'clock. most of the parties are promising to grow the uk economy, but are businesses and households any better off? we thought we would test things this morning in newcastle. peter has gone back there because that is where he covered the budget back in march. how is it looking? wet! good morning, peter. yes, good morning from newcastle. ican i can never get enough of this extraordinary view of newcastle and gateshead, those incredible bridges. an iconic view, really. we have come back to newcastle. when we were here for the budget in march, the uk was still officially in a very mild recession, and inflation, the rate at which the costs of goods and services increase, was 4%. we have brought a few of the people who were here then back. we are going to have a chat to them about how they are feeling, because we get economic numbers today, an update on how things are going, but of course how things are going, but of course how people are feeling is going to be crucial to how they might vote. so let's go through what we know so far. last time the economy grew ever so slightly betweenjanuary far. last time the economy grew ever so slightly between january and march, but that was important, because it meant we exited that short, shallow recession. today we will find out what happened in april. what we already know is that price rises, inflation, slowed quite a bit in april to 2.3%. it doesn't mean prices are coming down, but it does mean they are going up but not quite as speedier rate. but interest rates are unlikely to budge from the current high of 5.2% until price rises are brought a bit more under control. the prime minister has said the economy is turning a corner. the people here agree? i've been asking people in newcastle. it's all about the dough at the big river bakery. what's going in the ovens but also the savings for people still feeling the impact of the high cost of living. you know, when you go shopping now, you used to be able to go to the market — the fruit market — grainger market in town, with £5 and come back with a bag full of fruit and veg and now it's like it barely goes anywhere. food especially. i mean, it's ridiculous, isn't it, how everything has gone up so much, notjust by small amount, but by quite a significant amount. and then, of course, our salaries don't go up. so that does have an impact. barbara has been here for nearly two years after being made redundant, but she does a lot more than serve bread. when people come in, they're getting things cheaper than what they would say if they went to greggs or whatever. and i think, like, we're a good community bakery where they come in and have a cuppa and a chat, and if anything's wrong, and they do. shieldfield, like the rest of the country, has a decision to make. in just over three weeks' time, the polls will open. so what should the politicians focus on to win votes here? much more focus needs to be put into small businesses and supporting small businesses. whether that be a reduction in the vat rates in hospitality for food sales i think would be a good idea. the amount of tax i had to pay on my pension was, i think, obscene. supporting people like myself. in the public sector with the kind of wage increases that match inflation, i think— that would help a lot. i don't think it's all got to be about london and where people live, and that's got money. i think they need to look further afield and maybe we should even have a northern parliament and not just have a southern one because they don't know what goes on up here at all. well, that was the views in that community bakery. we have got some baked products here somewhere. i haven't found yet! let's have a chat to some of the people we have gathered here this morning. this is the point everyone goes really quiet. good morning. talk to me about what you do, and whether the people you work with think the economy has turned a corner, because thatis economy has turned a corner, because that is a big phrase at the moment. yes, i work for a trust, a charity based locally here providing services across the region to get people into trade and employment, but we also do a lot of work around poverty relief and support as well, to support people who are finding things a little bit hard. for the 15,000 people that come through our doors a year, we don't see things getting any better. it seems to be getting any better. it seems to be getting any better. it seems to be getting a lot more harderfor people. getting a lot more harder for --eole. ., , ., even people. even from the peak? even from then. — people. even from the peak?

buy two to get what you got before the pandemic and pay double the price, so it is getting harderforfamilies over double the price, so it is getting harder for families over the age of, families with three or four children, and obviously we have got the cap on child benefit as well. really important. thank you so much. we will chat a little bit later to some of the other people here. we chatted to you last time, you are not going to get away! it will be a really interesting to hear whether the view that you have got full so to how people end up voting at the election as well, that is coming up.

back to you then! let's take a look at today's papers. almost all of the front pages feature stories relating to the conservative party election manifesto unveiled yesterday. sunak promises £17 billion in tax cuts, reports the telegraph. the paper says the prime minister's plans will see national insurance payments reduced and offer help to first—time buyers. the guardian is less supportive. they report on criticism of the pm's plans by some economists, branding them "implausible" and suggesting they would benefit the wealthy. meanwhile, the mirror carries comments made by the pm in an interview with itv due to be broadcast tonight, in which, the paper says, rishi sunak claimed to know what real sacrifice was, as he didn't have satellite television as a child. "rishi: i didn't have a dish" is their headline. it's a good headline. the mail reports on different comments made by rishi sunak in which he has urged voters not to hand labour a blank cheque. the paper says the conservative manifesto creates "clear blue water" between the party and their opponents. we will be talking quite a lot about the general election, won't we, over the general election, won't we, over the coming weeks? we will also be talking about scotland and england in the euros. this morning in the papers there are various bits and pieces that are interesting. jude bellingham with his new line of underwear with kim kardashian's company, he is all over the front pages this morning, and in the times, they have done a review of the official kit the england team where to travel in, for getting on the plane and so on, and they have all the photos taken. fashion writer in the times has done a review of it today, saying that previously went football teams go off on the tournament, they nearly always put them in suits, especially so with them in suits, especially so with the england team. we have seen them paraded and excessively baggy suits that make them look like a madness tribute band. this town they have got it right with bomberjackets and t—shirts and comfy trousers, but he recommends nobody wears all of the beige pieces all at once, you could end up looking like a digestive biscuit. awkward! laughter no tie, jon. it is the influence of the smart casual working from home thing. you can't buy tyres any more. you like this is the new weekend. not for us! whereas monday and tuesday are for most of us staying in, by the middle of the week, 70% of us say we are now winding down already, feeling optimistic in thinking about going out. wednesday night? for a long time we were saying that thursday was the new friday. is wednesday now the new thursday? 0r was the new friday. is wednesday now the new thursday? or is wednesday the new thursday? or is wednesday the new thursday? or is wednesday the new saturday? when it is the football? friday? not wednesday. whatever! we work shifts, so we never know what day it is anyway. we just go to bed early. it is half past six. coming up on breakfast... as chaka khan celebrates 50 years in the music business, she's been telling us how she's happy with her "legendary" status, and how she's preparing to curate a uk music festival. that is good music for the weekend! the new wednesday weekend. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. a 16—year—old boy has been extradited from spain and charged with the murder ofjanayo lucimain in west london, the 21—year—old was shot dead on the 1st of april in west kengsington. two 18—year—olds who voluntarily returned from morocco on saturday have also been charged with his murder, along with five others previosuly. parents and staff are campaigning against proposals to close a nursery in tower hamlets. the westfield nursery�*s been running on the queen mary university site since 1992 but the university says since the pandemic the number of children who use it has fallen significantly and it's running at a loss. it says it's doing everything it can to help parents and carers find alternative arrangements but the nursery�*s manager says the staff are devastated. we were shocked. we were just numb. you know, people started asking about, "what are we going to do? this is our livelihood. no—one has said anything to us." and some staffjust broke down, you know, with shock. and with childcare being one of the big issues in this general election — we'll be looking further into it on our programme tonight at 6:30pm. now, this week marks the seventh anniversary of the grenfell tower fire, which led to the deaths of 72 people. eighteen children were among those who died in the fire in a high—rise block of flats in north kensington. local events are taking place all week with young people also preparing for the anniversary. many of them live on local estates near the tower block and have been supported by community groups. it always surprises me, actually, how many of the children still engage in things when it comes up to the memorial and the time of the memorial and how much interest they still have and curiosity. i think you have to remember that a lot of them live in the locality, so the tower is very much a part of their everyday life and has been all their everyday lives. let's take a look at the tubes now. and the piccadilly line has severe delays between acton town and cockfosters. another chilly start. let's get the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, it's a largely dry start to the day and quite a cool start as well. but today the cloud will thin and break. we'll see some decent spells of sunshine developing, but also the chance of some scattered showers. now, the main focus of these showers today will be across more central and eastern parts. and some of these could be heavy, possibly thundery, with the best of any sunshine to end the day across western areas and temperatures reaching around 15 to 17 celsius. now, for this evening, still a few showers for a time, but they'll fade away. it becomes drier overnight with clearer skies quite widely and temperatures will dip down to around 6 to 9 celsius with lighter winds, maybe one or two patches of mist or fog. looking ahead, well, a dry start to thursday, but we have this area of low pressure arriving in during the day, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain by thursday evening overnight into friday. and some of this will be heavy and persistent at times and some strong westerly winds, too. once the system clears through on friday, we're left with some sunshine, some heavy showers and the weekend, too, will see some showers at times. that's it. now, it's back to sally and jon. bye— bye. hello. this is breakfast with jon kay and sally nugent. thank jon kay and sally nugent. you forjoining us this morning. thank you forjoining us this morning. as we talk about the general election, trust and confidence in uk politics has never been worse. that's the stark findings of a new report which has examined the public�*s perception of governments from the 19705 to the present day. the analysis also suggests a record numbers of voters "almost never" trust politicians to tell the truth. our home editor mark easton has more. jingle: radio humberside. what do you want to hear from the politicians ahead of the general election? let me know. the voters of hull tend not to get excited about elections. the city had the lowest turnout at the last one of anywhere in the country, and it doesn't take long to find out why. the hopelessness is just, what's the point? it doesn't matter who i vote for, it's all going to be the same. will you be voting? me? it's a waste of time. waste of time, voting. i have no faith in any of it. none. tony martin, hull born and bred, contacted the bbc�*s your voice your vote because he feels so angry that politicians are taking people for fools. i am absolutely fed up to the back teeth of not hearing the truth. politicians in every party seem to treat us like idiots. you obviously feel really strongly about this. i do. i've never known a decline that we've experienced, not just this year, but probably for the last ten or 20 years. it's notjust yorkshire skepticism. a new report from the national centre for social research finds that across the country, trust and confidence in politics and politicians has never been lower. this election is being held amid a collapse of faith in our democratic systems. the report finds 45% of voters would almost never trust the government to put the country before their party — the highest proportion ever. 58% would almost never trust politicians to tell the truth when in a tight corner — a figure that's never been higher. changing the electoral system under which we'll all be... the report's author, the doyen of election analysis, professor sirjohn curtis, told me he's detected a sense of desperation among the electorate. these figures mean that we are now less trusting, less confident in our system of government than we have been at any point during the last 40 or 50 years. the report suggests voters think the way we're governed is broken. eight in ten say the system needs improving quite a lot or a great deal, with more than half wanting the voting system changed to one which is fairer to smaller parties. it's not boiling hot. it's not freezing cold. so what is the answer? many of the parties promised to give more power to the people. this part of yorkshire is due to have its own regional authority and most manifestos propose to devolve more control to such bodies. but hull is at the forefront of a grassroots movement to counter political apathy by creating people's assemblies. people need to have the power to make decisions for themselves. they've lost faith in politics from the top, and they need to really feel ownership over a movement that's coming from the bottom — something that meets their needs where they are. all sorts of people from a local community, who wouldn't - normally necessarily meet, - come together and discuss what's important and what they might do about things. i disillusionment over brexit, political scandal and economic crisis — all are blamed for the lack of trust. whoever wins the election will have an urgentjob to restore the nation's faith in its democracy. mark easton, bbc news, hull. viewers have been getting in touch with us through you will voice your vote. you can get in touch with your thoughts and we will follow it up, not all of them! we have been talking about general elections and people trying to get the top job. someone who is staying in hisjob. manchester united are keeping faith with their manager, erik ten hag. all the talk going into that match was about him losing thatjob, on that date. manchester united did not rebut it. manchester united fans have been getting really frustrated. make your mind up, manchester united. they will keep the faith with him. talk of a potential new contract. ten hag is said to be delighted at the decision, which was reached after an extensive post—season review, launched immediately after the fa cup final. united beat manchester city to lift the trophy and that's believed to have put a more positive light on the process. there were a list of names in the frame to replace him, including england manager gareth southgate, but there were so—called "constructive conversations" with ten hag, speaking immediately after the fa cup final, the united manager was in defiant mood and clearly eager to stay on. the only thing i am doing is preparing my team, develop my team, progress my team and the individual players. because this is, for me, a project. when i came in, i can say it was a mess and we are now better underneath. i always said we are better, but we are by far not where we want to be. scotland are stepping up their preprations for the opening match of euro 2024 — against the hosts germany in munich on friday. they've never made it beyond the group stage at a euros — or in fact at any major tournament — and with games against switzerland and hungary to come, it won't be easy this time either. manager steve clarke is well aware of their record and that's why he says his focus is on putting it right. the bottom line is we need four points to come out the group. that guarantees that you'll come out the group. three points and a zero goal difference would probably get you out of the group. so that's what we have to look at — every game in isolation. yeah. i can't wait. it's been a long... like i say, it's been a long time since we qualified. we've always known you've got these various stages along the way to get to here. i can't wait to be in the stadium. i've had a little look at the stadium when it was empty. i can't wait to be there when it's a full house on friday night and, yeah, let's bring on. england have been settling into their new surroundings in blankenhain, in central germany, as they begin the build up to their opening match against serbia on sunday. it seems it could be an all or nothing tournament for manager gareth southgate, who's told the german newspaper bild that if england don't win it, he probably won't stay on in the job. he's been dealing with fitness worries but all 26 players did train yesterday in an open session with around 500 school children looking on. cristiano ronaldo never seems to age, he's certainly not slowing down. he scored twice for portugal in their 3—0 win over the republic of ireland in a friendly last night. 39 years old now, ronaldo. he lit up portugal's farewell party in a fairly comfortable warm up win before they head to germany for the euros. portugal are the 2016 european champions and they're one of the favourites to win it this time too. they begin their campaign against czech republic next tuesday. like the republic of ireland, northern ireland missed out on the euros but they were far too good for andorra in their friendly in murcia. liverpool's conor bradley scoring both goals in a 2—0 win. their next game will come in the nations league in september. it's the final day of the european athletics championships in italy with keely hodgkinson leading the british medal hopes in the women's 800m. no golds last night for britain but, boy, was it close! daryl neita, second from the bottom, was within 100th of a second of winning the 200m. that's how close it was. in the end, it was silver for her, gold for mujinga kambundji, as neita was denied herfirst major title. i gave everything i had. i mean, i think i ran a season's best, but it was not enough. and honestly, i'm disappointed. i'm not sure exactly how the race went, but i was just giving everything i had on that home straight and i need to get back to work. and there was bronze for megan keith in the women's 10,000 metres, as home favourite nadia battocletti took gold. elish mccolgan, meanwhile, failed to finish emma raducanu says she's pleased with the way she overcame a late wobble, to beatjapan's ena shibahara in straight sets at the nottingham 0pen. the win took her through to the last 16. it was raducanu's first match since april and her first on grass for nearly two years, with wrist and ankle surgeries ruling her out of wimbledon last year. franjones and cameron norrie also won in nottingham. but a setback for andy murray's wimbledon preparations, he's been knocked out in the first round of the stuttgart 0pen by this man, america's marcos giron, in straight sets. he'll play jack draper later today. disappointment for murray as he gears up for what is expected to be his final wimbledon farewell next month. good news though for andy murray. he says he is feeling better with his ankle. he is playing with his brother. it has not happened until grand slam. very much in farewell mode. great to see him playing out and still. how long do you think you could last without your smartphone? a few hours? a day? i would be reaching out for it. so would i! we are all addicted, aren't we? we've followed a group of teenagers to see how they cope without their smartphones for five days as part of a bbc radio 5 live project. 0ur reporter kristianjohnson joined them to see how they got on. on friday, i received a79 notifications. it's fair to say some teenagers are pretty glued to their phones. 0k, guys. point of no return. thank you very much. but this group of students are doing the unthinkable — locking them away for almost a week. you said your goodbye? yes. good. no tiktok, no snapchat, no whatsapp. so, guys, these are your new... oh, my god! ..mobile phones. instead, they'll be using these for the next five days. the only way of communicating — texts and calls. i'm on a nokia. guys, do you want to see something? mum, this is weird, i don't like it! oh, my gosh! they're going to have to learn a whole new set of skills - for the next week to be able . to adapt and continue their life as close to what it used to be. but with that mobile - phone underpinning most of their activities, _ it's going to be a real challenge. so in the mornings, usually, i'll, like, search up the travel times, because then i know, "oh, yeah, i need to leave in five minutes. oh, yeah, i've got a little bit of time before i need to leave." but with, like, without a phone, i've got no way of knowing when the next tram will be. and not being involved in group chats means it's harderfor ruby to meet up with friends. i feel like with the nokia, i'm kind of missing out a bit more on social interaction. like, we always go bowling or something. we've not organised anything so far. 0k. so i'm 52 hours into the detox. i'm finding it ok. i don't think it's difficult oranything, like. two days into the journey, and while ruby's coping well, charlie has already given into temptation. it's genuinely hard and you don't have it. —— it's genuinely hard when you don't have it. it's like having, like, a comfort item for how many ever years and itjust goes... it was really stressful. some others are struggling too. not knowing what's going on in, like, a group chat, itjust makes me like, "what am i missing out on?" but most are focusing on the positives. without my phone, i feel like i'm actually learning stuff and engaging more — noticing stuff around me, which i probably should be doing anyways but i'm just too addicted to my phone. usually before i go to bed, i usuallyjust watch, like disney+ for like an hourand thenjust drift off. but since then, i've just gone straight to sleep and it's weird. feels much better. the more time goes on, it- like becomes a lot easier to think of things to do because you've not got your phone, so you're - like, "oh, new message." will's journey home takes over an hour. announcement: this is l a service to etihad campus. a tram first, then a bus. so in terms of not having a smartphone, it makes it more difficult because i can't check the timetable. and when they say it's been delayed or something, i could at least ring my dad and ask for a lift, you know? will's mum, alison, admits not being able to use family tracking apps like life360 is a hindrance, but she's noticed big changes in her son just three days into the detox. it's actually quite nice seeing you without headphones. i don't see that much normally. no. i think it's just become the norm. whereas actual social interaction does require you to put these things away, and... yeah. ..engage a little bit more. five days later, it's the end of term and time to get those smartphones back. got yours? yeah. maybe i'll put my phone away in the car and i'll put my phone away, like, when i'm around my friends. but in general, like, going on to tiktok and everything, i'm still going to do that. like, ifanything, i'm going to do it more now. i think it's been pretty difficult without a smartphone, - but i've managed to get through it all right. - i'll try and use less - of tiktok, that's for sure. i know my screen time is quite high on that. i judging by their initial reaction, perhaps the students aren't quite ready to give up their smartphones entirely, but the detox might start to slowly change their habits. kristian johnson, bbc news. so interesting. so clever. well done to them for not using their smartphones for all that time. after eight, we'll be joined on the sofa by some of the teenagers who took part. bbc 5 live and bbc bitesize's "teen 2a summit" is taking place in warrington today. nicky campbell will be live from 9 until 11am with an audience of 16—18 year olds. the details are on the screen. we'd love to hear what you think about this — get in touch in the usual ways. just sums it up. they

boy has been extradited from spain and charged with the murder ofjanayo lucima in west london. the 21—year—old was shot dead on the 1st of april in west kensington. two 18—year—olds who voluntarily returned from morocco on saturday have also been charged with his murder, along with five others previosuly. parents and staff are campaigning against proposals to close a nursery in tower hamlets. the westfield nursery�*s been running on the queen mary university site since 1992 but the university says since the pandemic the number of children who use it has fallen significantly and it's running at a loss. it says it's doing everything it can to help parents and carers find alternative arrangements, but the nursery�*s manager says the staff are devastated. we were shocked. we were just numb. you know, people started asking about, "what are we going to do? this is our livelihood. no—one has said anything to us." and some staffjust broke down, you know, with shock. and with childcare being one of the big issues in this general election, we'll be looking further into it on our programme tonight at 6.30pm. now, this week marks the seventh anniversary of the grenfell tower fire which led to the deaths of 72 people. 18 children were among the victims. local events are taking place all week with young people also preparing for the anniversary. many of them live on local estates near the tower block and have been supported by community groups. it always surprises me, actually, how many of the children still engage in things when it comes up to the memorial and the

its election manifesto for england and wales today — they're promising a £50 billion a year investment into the nhs and social care. they say it'll be paid for by a tax on higher earners and the wealthy. 0ur political correspondent hannah miller has the details. cheering. as the green party try to get noticed, they're promising a game—changing transformation of the country, pledging to mend what they call broken britain by increasing taxes on higher earners and the wealthy. the promises include an annual 1% wealth tax on individuals with assets above £10 million, rising to 2% for those whose assets amount to over a billion. they also say they'll increase national insurance payments for those earning over £50,000 and introduce a home improvement programme to cut energy costs and make homes warmer. the green party know that their leaders are highly unlikely to become the next prime minister. but what they're hoping for is to get enough mps to have influence over whoever does win the election. the conservatives used their manifesto launch to promise a 2p cut in national insurance within the next three years. among their ways of saving money is cuts to the welfare bill of £12 billion a year. as for labour, their manifesto will be published in full tomorrow. but today they're focusing on potholes in england, putting forward an extra £61; million annually to fix a million more every year. in this week of manifesto launches, there are promises and pledges aplenty as the parties hope to catch your attention and of course, your vote. hannah miller, bbc news. we'll be talking to the green party's co—leader adrian ramsayjust after 8:30, but first our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us from westminster. what will the green party be trying to achieve with their manifesto? good morning. the greens have the challenge that pretty much every party other than the main two has, which is trying to persuade people to vote for them even though they all but to acknowledge that they are not going to be in downing street afterjuly the 4th. and when it comes to the greens, they want to persuade people to vote for them to shape the debate, and shape the debate on a particular direction. the clue is in the name. they want to force people to talk more about energy and environmental issues, and that was where they will talk about a £50 billion plan to insulate homes and public buildings, plans for a carbon tax, and also and this is slightly different to previous elections, the greens are trying to fill some of the space vacated by the labour party as they have shifted since they change leaders from jeremy corbyn to keir starmer, so they are talking more about tax and an increase in national insurance, and a wealth tax for some of the wealthiest into society. the greens have had one mp for 1h years, they are standing across the country but they are hoping for four at this election, and today's manifesto was a crucial set piece moment where they will try to achieve that. and they will try to achieve that. and hen , they will try to achieve that. and henry. we _ they will try to achieve that. and henry. we know _ they will try to achieve that. and henry, we know that with the prime minister's infamous d—day interview finally airing tonight, he has been making some interesting comments? it making some interesting comments? it is not great if an interview is infamous before it is even broadcast. this was the interview recorded last thursday while rishi sunak was here in the uk, but many of his counterpart world leaders were still in normandy for the d—day commemorations. 0ne were still in normandy for the d—day commemorations. one of the things many people are noticing from what we have seen of the interview overnight that has been released already is not anything to do with d—day but comments about rishi sunak�*s well. let's have a listen. what did you go without as a child? iwent— what did you go without as a child? i

regulator, 0fwat, with a new body called the clean water authority to tackle the dumping of sewage. they say it would have its headquarters in an area which has been badly affected by the problem, and would be able to revoke the licences of poor performers. and as henry was just mentioning, and as henry wasjust mentioning, it is all about the interviews on the live television debates, and there has been another one. jon can tell us about it now. ican indeed. the leaders of scotland's five main political parties have clashed in a special debate programme on a range of issues from how to tackle the cost of living crisis to the problems faced by the nhs as well as scottish independence. 0ur scotland editor james cook was watching. 60 minutes, five party leaders, one general election that could change the country... and three big topics. first, the economy. what worries me about what lies ahead is that there's the threat of more spending cuts. anas has not been straight... i'm being straight. there is going to be £18 billion of public spending cuts, and we've had enough austerity from the tories. we don't want to imposed it on us by any incoming labour government. so let me be straight with you, john. - let me be straight- with the public as well. we will raise revenue, i and we'll raise revenue by a windfall tax on the oil and gas giants, which would raise - £10 billion, a measure you oppose. read my lips. no austerity under labour. i've seen poverty. i've never seen anything like this. this is the worst cost of living crisis since the end of rationing. the liberal democrats immediately would reverse the two—child cap on benefits. if we look at the covid pandemic and the war in ukraine, there has been a massive shock to not only our domestic economy but economies across the globe, and the government at a uk level have tried to provide some universal support and some targeted support. it is disingenuous of douglas ross to pretend that times are hard. times are not hard for the super wealthy. they've made out like bandits since covid. their wealth has doubled and tripled. applause. this and the second topic, the nhs. my mother, who's 93, _ waited six hours for an ambulance, another two hours outside the hospital before - she was admitted. is our nhs broken? the nhs is run from edinburgh, but the scottish government's budget is determined in part at westminster. that austerity, that cutting taxes for the wealthy means you have to cut to the bone and cut again and again. and that took us to the third topic — independence. 0n the economy, on poverty, on health, on public services are all crying out for ministerial attention, but have been starved of that because of the constitutional debate that has gripped our politics for so long. i don't support independence. i don't support a referendum. but i can understand why so many people across scotland were looking for an escape route from a tory government that they thought we couldn't get rid of or from a labour party that they thought couldn't win. people are really struggling in scotland today because of the effects of 1a years of austerity, because of brexit and the cost of living crisis. all of those are a product of decisions taken at westminster. tory decisions. all of those decisions are a product of decisions taken in westminster. it's not the nhs that we've been discussing today, it's not the education system, it's not carers. it's going to be independence above everything else, and scotland will suffer as a result of that. audience and politicians had plenty to say last night. 0njuly the 4th, it's your turn. james cook, bbc news, glasgow. the outlook for progress to end the fighting in gaza is looking uncertain after hamas issued its first formal response to the ceasefire plan outlined by president biden and backed by the un security council. let's get the latest now from our middle east correspondent yolande knell. what are both sides having to say about this plan?— about this plan? well, first of all with hamas. _ about this plan? well, first of all with hamas, it— about this plan? well, first of all with hamas, it gave _ about this plan? well, first of all with hamas, it gave the - about this plan? well, first of all with hamas, it gave the briefest| about this plan? well, first of all. with hamas, it gave the briefest of statements saying it had handed over its response to the mediators, and its response to the mediators, and it reiterated in the statement that it reiterated in the statement that it wanted a complete end to what it calls israel's aggression on gaza and a complete withdrawal of israeli forces from the entire gaza strip. now, there was a hamas official who came out afterward saying this response opened up a wide pathway, he said, to reach an agreement. but then, although the israeli prime minister's offered didn't give its answer to what hamas had said, an official was quoted widely in media here saying that really this changed all of the most meaningful parameters, amounted to a rejection of a proposal on the table. what is going to be curious to hear back from the mediators who are also no studying this deal, and the hamas amendments that are being suggested, key among them the white house, and we have also got us secretary of state antony blinken who is back in the region, he is going to be in doha later in qatar, playing a key role. yolande knell, thank you very much indeed. the us presidentjoe biden has flown in to support his son hunter, who has been found guilty on three charges in a federal gun trial. mr biden said he will respect a jury's decision to convict his 54—year—old son of lying on an application to buy a weapon. an invasive species of mosquito known as tiger mosquitoes has been linked to a significant rise in cases of dengue fever across europe — a disease that is normally associated with tropical areas. scientists say climate change is creating favourable conditions for the insect in europe. authorities have been monitoring their spread as far north as paris, where the olympic games will take place at the end ofjuly. the world health organization says alcohol, ultra—processed foods, tobacco and fossil fuels are killing 2.7 people every year in europe. it says powerful industries interfere in government policies aimed at improving health and regulating the marketing of such products. carroll will have the weather for us shortly. heavy rainfall meant flights were unable to take off from majorca's main airport because of flooding on its runways. eyewitnesses at palma airport described chaotic scenes, with passengers running for cover from the water pouring through the roof. all flights were grounded. 0ur reporter chi chi izundu has more. heavy rain, heavy flooding. a storm caused nearly 9cm of rain to fall in less than an hour in palma in majorca. this is spain's third biggest airport. passengers were not able to enter or leave the terminal building and officials activated an emergency plan and temporarily rerouted flights to other airports because of the impossibility of operating safely. i got the notification that my flight got cancelled, so it should have been today evening, and now we are checking for other options that go to germany tonight. it has been cancelled, apparently. and i was going on a business trip. so let's see. last year, some 31 million people passed through this airport's doors. and now with flights resuming, 0peration clean up can begin. chi chi izundu, bbc news. doesn't look very good there, does it? let's see what it will be like in germany. friday night will see the euros kick off in munich, with scotland taking on the german hosts. john watson is in the city now for us and fans are already arriving. good morning, john. at least you haven't got the rain.— haven't got the rain. yes, good mornin: haven't got the rain. yes, good morning to _ haven't got the rain. yes, good morning to you _ haven't got the rain. yes, good morning to you both, _ haven't got the rain. yes, good morning to you both, although| haven't got the rain. yes, good l morning to you both, although it haven't got the rain. yes, good - morning to you both, although it is a little chilly here in munich still this morning, but things are certainly going to heat up over the coming days as we gear up for the start of this european championship. germany hosting a major tournament for the first time since the world cup back in 2006, and significantly, both england and scotland have qualified. scotland, though, have the unenviable task of facing the hosts, germany, in the opening match of this tournament here in munich on friday night, where we could see up to 200,000 scotland fans descending on munich over the coming days. it might look quiet here now, but that will certainly change over the coming days as they hope to see their team achieve something they have never managed before, making it out of the group stage of a major tournament. england will begin their campaign in gelsenkirchen two days later, that is on sunday night against serbia, in what could be gareth southgate, the england manager, his last chance of winning some silverware, with his future still uncertain after this tournament. i think we can expect plenty of tears. there will be a lot of singing and dare i say to penalty shoot—out or two as we head towards the final which will be staged in berlin onjuly the 14th. strapped in. i think it is going to be a thrilling ride for all involved. i can't believe he is already talking about penalty shoot—out! thank you very much indeed. we have been talking about those four years. and we will keep talking about them! talking about another england hero this morning. sir rod stewart has said that it's time david beckham was given a knighthood. iam also i am also wonderfully honoured to be a knight, and david, yours is coming soon! does ron stuart know something that the king doesn't? the singerjoined king charles at an awards ceremony for the king's foundation which is his majesty's charitable trust. the former england captain — who was also there — has revealed he has spent time with the king talking about beekeeping and getting younger people connected to nature. he might get a kbe! carol has got the weatherfor us. is he might get a kbe! carol has got the weather for us. is any of that awful weather we are seeing in majorca heading our way, or are we safe? it is not. we are staying in the cooler air, and that was the warmer weather, the top of the front bringing that rain. we could see 20 millimetres in parts of majorca, in palma today. for many of us we are starting off on a cloudy note, and here it will dry up much more than it is going to in the east, but showers will be fewer and further between today than they were yesterday. something i want to draw to your attention as the pollen. pollen levels are moderate or high across much of the country, talking grass pollen and also some weed pollen, so if you have an allergy to that, do bear that in mind first thing. a cloudy start, here in eastern scotland, but in the west it dries up, sunny intervals through the afternoon, north—west england in the south—west brightening up, but eastern england hanging onto a little bit more cloud and also a few showers, but not as prolific as yesterday. but feeling cool prolific as yesterday. but feeling cool, temperatures up to about 17 is best. through deceiving overnight, the showers will fade, clearer skies and the temperature will fall away, and the temperature will fall away, and then the cloud starts to build once again across northern ireland ahead of a band of rain coming in. temperatures in the highlands could fall away as low as 2 degrees, and generally we are seeing in single figures. tomorrow we start off on a dry and sunny note, the cloud romping in from the west with a few showers, and then we have got all this rain coming in, gusty winds, strong winds through the irish sea and areas adjacent, with temperatures 10—17. so, sally and jon, temperature still a bit below average for the time of year. and we can feel it. carol, thank you. it is it i519 it is 19 minutes past seven. we have been waiting this morning to get some figures out, which will show us what will happen in the economy. we understand that in april it flatlined. it doesn't sound ideal. peter's in newcastle and can tell us more. good morning, jon, good morning, sally. i will attempt to explain. we have had figures for april and there are a couple of important caveats with them, they are monthly figures which means they are quite volatile, impacted by things like the rain. we are in newcastle, i can show you the view and there is no rain here but there was rain in april but that impacted things like construction and building site activity of course, because you can't get out when it is raining. the other important caveat is these monthly figures can and do get revised, we pay more attention to the quarterly figures. that having been said, these come in the middle of an election campaign, so they will be closely watched, and it is an election in which the prime minister has said that the economy is turning a corner. does 0% growth impact that statement and how people view the economy? let's ask the experts, because i am not an expert. laura, thank you for chatting us. you are a personal finance expert, thank you for chatting us. you are a personalfinance expert, which is what people are caring about more than these figures. what impact of these gd figures have on our personal finances? these gd figures have on our personalfinances? probably these gd figures have on our personal finances? probably the biggest impact as it might bring forward a bank of england interest rate cut, so this will mean the bank and bingley will be looking at when it is going to cut interest rates. there is an announcement next week and we are not expecting a cut then, but the markets have risen in expectation of a cut briefly. and it might bring forward the potential of a cut, and that impacts people's personal finances. a cut, and that impacts people's personalfinances. very a cut, and that impacts people's personal finances. very briefly, representing small businesses here in the

former middlesex hospital by 2026. the centre was home to the uk's first dedicated aids ward, which was opened by the princess in 1987. 0ur lgbt and identity correspondent josh parry has this report. 19805 britain. big hair, short shorts, new technologies. a decade of change. but in the gay community, news of a strange disease killing young men began to emerge. jonathan was 33. i was essentially, having got this diagnosis, sent home. and i remember arriving sort of at my flat. i was living in the east end. and ijust closed the door and i absolutely collapsed. and it took an age for me to contact anybody. and ifelt like a modern—day leper. i felt completely on my own. and as news of hiv spread, stigma grew. it lay blame, guilt and shame at the feet of the gay community. it was hell. it was absolutely relentless hell. but in 1987 came a turning point. princess diana's visit to the middlesex hospital, home of the uk's first dedicated hiv and aids. the princess of wales, has opened britain's first purpose built hospital ward for aids, and she shook hands with nine aids patients. that was a complete game changer. she wasjust, you know, magnificent. is is, you know, the only word that one can describe it. what is amazing, which which i don't think people realise, because she never made any kind of publicity, but she kept going back to the middlesex to see people. so it wasn'tjust this one official. she kept going back privately to go and see people and give support. and, you know, that is remarkable. ash has dedicated his life to campaigning for a memorial to those lost during the aids crisis. in 2021, he appeared alongside former health secretary lord fowler on bbc breakfast. i set up the campaign. the campaign is to remember those who we lost, but to carry on fighting stigma. because stigma stops people accessing medication. later today, plans for that memorial and the designer chosen to create it will be unveiled. its aim — to change hearts and minds for generations to come. josh parry, bbc news. we're joined now by mark ward, the haemophilia society's lgbt ambassador, who was on the panel for the selection process of the memorial. good morning. this

finally london has said, we see, and future generations will see us. they will remember us. and as the intro said, that is the important part, that with stigma still there bubbling under the surface, and people in health care and the way it has been weaponised over the years, this tells the world, really, that london has finally caught up, and they are doing something to ensure that people in the

in brighton, and there are other memorials up and down the country. there is a dedicated haemophilia hiv memorial called birchgrove, which we fought for in the 90s, and again, if i could just use one example. when the national trust then were approached with this memorial for the land, they said no, because it was connected to aids. they fought it all the way, they wouldn't have anything to do with it. and then attitudes changed, and there is a tree planted for every haemophiliac who contracted hiv. so i have a tree there. i have never been because i'm not sure if i want to see it, but those trees live on, and this memorial in london, it will live on in a similar manner, because it will now be there permanently. it is going to be somewhere for the communities to come to, because it will be a place of reflection, but at the heart of this, we have got to remember that it will be a place of love, because it is all about the people that you've loved, you've lost, yourfriends,

west london. the 21—year—old was shot dead on the 1st of april in west kensington. two 18—year—olds, who voluntarily returned from morocco on saturday, have also been charged with his murder, along with five others previously. parents and staff are campaigning against proposals to close a nursery in tower hamlets. the westfield nursery�*s been running on the queen mary university site since 1992 but the university says since the pandemic the number of children who use it has fallen significantly and it's running at a loss. it says it's doing everything it can to help parents and carers find alternative arrangements. the nursery�*s manager says the staff are devastated. we were shocked. we were just numb. you know, people started asking about, "what are we going to do? this is our livelihood. no—one has said anything to us." and some staffjust broke down, you know, with shock. and with childcare being one of the big issues in next month's general election — we'll be looking further into it on our programme tonight at 6:30pm. now, this week marks the seventh anniversary of the grenfell tower fire, which led to the deaths of 72 people. eighteen children were among the victims and young people are heavily involved in events this week to mark the anniversary. many of them live on local estates near the tower block and have been supported by community groups. it always surprises me, actually, how many of the children still engage in things when it comes up to the memorial and the time of the memorial and how much interest they still have and curiosity. i think you have to remember that a lot of them live in the locality, so the tower is very much a part of their everyday life and has been all their everyday lives. let's take a look at the tubes now. the elizabeth line has minor delays and there are severe delays on the victoria line. let's get the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, it's a largely dry start to the day and quite a cool start as well. but today the cloud will thin and break. we'll see some decent spells of sunshine developing, but also the chance of some scattered showers. now, the main focus of these showers today will be across more central and eastern parts. and some of these could be heavy, possibly thundery, with the best of any sunshine to end the day across western areas and temperatures reaching around 15 to 17 celsius. now, for this evening, still a few showers for a time, but they'll fade away. it becomes drier overnight with clearer skies quite widely and temperatures will dip down to around 6 to 9 celsius with lighter winds, maybe one or two patches of mist or fog. looking ahead, well, a dry start to thursday, but we have this area of low pressure arriving in during the day, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain by thursday evening overnight into friday. and some of this will be heavy and persistent at times and some strong westerly winds, too. once the system clears through on friday, we're left with some sunshine, some heavy showers and the weekend, too, will see some showers at times. that's it. bye— bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. safety campaigners are urging political parties to address the risk of fires caused by faulty lithium ion batteries, such as those used to charge e—bikes and scooters. the charity electrical safety first says new laws should be a priority for whichever party forms the next government. the campaign is being backed by scott peden, whose partner and two children died in a fire believed to have been started by a faulty battery. tim muffett reports. lastjune, scott peden lost everything. he'd bought a replacement battery online for his e—bike. the following week, a devastating blaze ripped through his home. cambridgeshire fire and rescue service believes it was caused by the battery. scott was badly burned and placed in an induced coma for four weeks. my mum and my dad broke the news to me. and yeah, i lost my girlfriend, my son, my daughter, and our two dogs. scott's partner, gemma, was 31. their daughter, lily, was eight. their son 0liver was four. lithium ion batteries contain a large amount of energy in a small space. this is thermal runaway, demonstrated in a lab. if a cell in a faulty battery heats up uncontrollably, a devastating chain reaction can follow. as the number of fires caused by faulty lithium ion batteries has risen, calls for tougher safety regulations have grown louder. manufacturers of batteries and e—bikes can currently self—declare that their products are safe. campaigners want independent third party safety certification to become mandatory. and so does scott. we're joined now by scott, who we saw in that piece, and also by the technical director of electrial safety first, martyn allen. good morning to both of you. scott, it is nearly a year ago that the terrible fire happened. take your time talking to us this morning. i know how important it is

work so i was in a bit of a panic. brand—new ones were selling for over £600 at a time. less than a week before pay day i could not afford it. i scrimped and saved and baked as many people as i

got a lifting to work on monday. my friend used it during the day on monday but the first time it hit full charge, itjust went in the middle of the night. we awoke at quarter to 12. there was an almighty bang. sounded like someone dropped a bowling ball next to my head. it woke us all up. i could see the flames from my bedroom. i got into the pool and the flames were coming from the ground floor straight up the stairs and burning a hole in the roof. i knew within seconds, i knew we were trapped in the house. unfortunately, jemma, she was a bit of a big build unfortunately, jemma, she

hopefully i in and sharing your story. hopefully it will make a difference to people watching this morning. we have the headlines coming up at eight o'clock. also carroll will be talking to us about the extreme weather we have been talking about at the moment, like in spain. the airport at new york are completely flooded and flights grounded. let's join chetan. all the talk going into the fa cup final last month was that manchester united manager erik ten hag was going to lose his job whatever happened. but two and a half weeks on, he's now staying in charge and it's believed he's in talks to extend his contract, which has one season left to run. ten hag, currently on holiday with his family in ibiza, is said to be delighted with united's decision, which was reached after an extensive post—season review, launched after the cup final. united beat manchester city to lift the trophy and that's thought to have shifted the thinking at the club, after they'd finished 8th in the premier league. it's believed united were looking at other managers, including gareth southgate and thomas tuchel, but in the end have opted to stick with ten hag. this is what the united manager had to say last month after his side's cup final win when he was in defiant mood. the only thing i am doing is preparing my team, develop my team, progress my team and the individual players. because this is, for me, a project. when i came in, i can say it was a mess and we are now better underneath. i always said we are better, but we are by far not where we want to be. scotland are stepping up their preprations for the opening match of euro 2024 — against the hosts germany in munich on friday. they've never made it beyond the group stage at a euros — or in fact at any major tournament — and with games against switzerland and hungary to come, it won't be easy this time either. manager steve clarke is well aware of their record and that's why he says his focus is on putting it right. the bottom line is we need four points to come out the group. that guarantees that you'll come out the group. three points and a zero goal difference would probably get you out of the group. so that's what we have to look at — every game in isolation. yeah. i can't wait. it's been a long... like i say, it's been a long time since we qualified. we've always known you've got these various stages along the way to get to here. i can't wait to be in the stadium. i've had a little look at the stadium when it was empty. i can't wait to be there when it's a full house on friday night and, yeah, let's bring on. england have been settling into their new surroundings in blankenhain, in central germany, as they begin the build up to their opening match against serbia on sunday. it seems it could be an all or nothing tournament for manager gareth southgate, who's told the german newspaper bild that if england don't win it, he probably won't stay on in the job. he's been dealing with fitness worries but all 26 players did train yesterday in an open session with around 500 school children looking on. it's the final day of the european athletics championships in italy with keely hodgkinson leading the british medal hopes in the women's 800m. no golds last night for britain — but boy was it close. daryl neita, second from the bottom, was within one hundredth of a second of winning the 200m. that's how close it was. in the end, it was silver for her, gold for mujinga kambundji, as neita was denied herfirst major title. i gave everything i had. i mean, i think i ran a season's best, but it was not enough. and honestly, i'm disappointed. i'm not sure exactly how the race went, but i was just giving everything i had on that home straight and i need to get back to work. and there was bronze for megan keith in the women's10,000m, as home favourite nadia battocletti took gold. elish mccolgan, meanwhile, failed to finish. ten gold medals up for grabs on the final day. good luck to kealy hodgkinson. we are getting closer to the olympics and of course the paralympics. now, when a group of synchronised swimmers from bristol agreed to have their photographs taken in the months leading up to lockdown in 2020 — little did they know where it would lead them. because now the women have found themselves featured on billboards on the paris metro to advertise this summer's 0lympics. dickson hooper went to find out how they got involved swimming in all weathers, in all waters and all perfectly synchronised. # somewhere beyond the sea.# it's a really good laugh. it kind of combines things that we all love — getting together and learning new skills, keeping fit, and also that kind of musical creative aspect, i think, is important as well. and why do you do it? it's just really fun. i really love being part of a little group and a gang of girls. we go around and do lots of things together and it's really fun. yeah. the group started in 2019 and a year later they were being photographed by a final year student in bristol. i remember it being really cold and the lake was flooded that day. and so we were... sort of had to wade through horrible, big, wet grass. it was the middle of winter, but it wasn't sort of your classic photo shoot. classic enough, though, for the pictures to end up in new york and now on the paris metro to help promote the olympic games. i was completely, you know, shocked land incredibly happy and honoured. i it's not something that i ever- thought was going to happen to me. so my first thought was, - i have to get to paris and go see it myself. oh, it was so exciting. when eva contacted us to say that this project was happening, we just couldn't believe it. we couldn't believe that we were going to be part of the promotion of the olympics. that's very exciting. and when we eventually saw how big the pictures were, it was quite amazing. anybody asked for your autograph yet? no! are you hoping they will know? no. a modest group, who've become close friends, taking some bristol panache to the paris 0lympics. dickson hooper, bbc news. i love this so much. vix, annabel, allison and julia from almost synchro join us now. morning.

alice salfield. a 16—year—old boy has been extradited from spain and charged with the murder ofjanayo lucima in west london. the 21—year—old was shot dead on the 1st of april in west kensington. two 18—year—olds who voluntarily returned from morrocco on saturday have also been charged with his murder, along with five others previously. parents and staff are campaigning against proposals to close a nursery in tower hamlets. the westfield nursery�*s been running on the queen mary university site since 1992 but the university says since the pandemic the number of children who use it has fallen significantly and it's running at a loss. it says it's doing everything it can to help parents and carers find alternative arrangements. the nursery�*s manager says the staff are devastated. we were shocked. we were just numb. you know, people started asking about, "what are we going to do? this is our livelihood. no—one has said anything to us." and some staffjust broke down, you know, with shock. let's take a look at the tubes now. the elizabeth line has minor delays, and there are severe delays on the victoria line. today's weather — a mix of sun, cloud and showers. the skies will

main story. the green party will launch its election manifesto for england and wales today — they're promising a £50 billion a year investment into the nhs and social care. they say it'll be paid for by a tax on higher earners and the wealthy. 0ur political correspondent hannah miller has the details. cheering. as the green party try to get noticed, they're promising a game—changing transformation of the country, pledging to mend what they call broken britain by increasing taxes on higher earners and the wealthy. the promises include an annual 1% wealth tax on individuals with assets above £10 million, rising to 2% for those whose assets amount to over a billion. they also say they'll increase national insurance payments for those earning over £50,000 and introduce a home improvement programme to cut energy costs and make homes warmer. the green party know that their leaders are highly unlikely to become the next prime minister. but what they're hoping for is to get enough mp5 to have influence over whoever does win the election. the conservatives used their manifesto launch to promise a 2p cut in national insurance within the next three years. among their ways of saving money is cuts to the welfare bill of £12 billion a year. as for labour, their manifesto will be published in full tomorrow. but today they're focusing on potholes in england, putting forward an extra £64 million annually to fix a million more every year. in this week of manifesto launches, there are promises and pledges aplenty as the parties hope to catch your attention and of course, your vote. hannah miller, bbc news. and we'll be talking to the green party's co—leader adrian ramsayjust after eight—thirty — but first our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us from westminster. what will the green party be trying to achieve with their manifesto? good morning. ithink good morning. i think they will be trying to persuade people not to vote for one of the parties who might form the government after the general election, and instead vote for the greens to shape the debate. and the debate that they want to shape and this isn't a surprise, the clue is in the name, is about energy and environmental policy, and that is why some of the most eye—catching things we know we'll be in their manifesto today around those issues. they are talking about a £49 billion programme of home insulation, insulation of public buildings. they are also talking about a carbon tax on some of britain's businesses. when it comes to tax, they are also talking about personal tax and they are not talking about cutting tax but about increasing it for the wealthiest. national insurance, they are levying that on people with incomes of £60,000 or more, but also talking about a wealth tax for some of britain's millionaires, and all of britain's millionaires, and all of that speaks to the fact that the greens think there is a gap vacated by the labour party since they have moved away from the politics of jeremy corbyn, and today's manifesto was a key moment for them to signal to those voters that they want to win over. , ,, :, , win over. rishi sunak's interview that he left _ win

childhood, although his parents had come to the uk with not an awful lot as immigrants. but he is now an extremely wealthy man courtesy of his wife, whose father is one of the world's richest men, a billionaire indeed. but the political challenge is how you deal with that, how you wear that likely, move past it and empathise with people anyway, and that is a political challenge for rishi sunak that he is going to have to nail down in the final few weeks of this general election.— down in the final few weeks of this general election. the liberal democrats have given more details of their plan to replace the water industry regulator, 0fwat, with a new body called the clean water authority to tackle the dumping of sewage.

more of today's news. yes, it'll be interesting to see how this affects the campaign today as well. in the last hour we've had the latest figures from the office for national statistics showing the uk economy flatlined in april. peter's in newcastle and can tell us more. good morning, peter. what we make of this? :, . :, ~ , good morning, peter. what we make of this? :, i :, ~ , this? good morning, jon. as ever, with monthly _ this? good morning, jon. as ever, with monthly gdp _ this? good morning, jon. as ever, with monthly gdp figures - this? good morning, jon. as ever, with monthly gdp figures which i with monthly gdp figures which represent the size of the economy and whether the size of the economy is growing or shrinking, there are a couple of really important caveats. they are just monthly figures. that means they are incredibly volatile to things like the rain which impacted construction sites in april, so construction, that particular sector within the gdp make up, that was the real drag on the overall figures. the other important caveat is that these figures for monthly gdp, they can and do get revised. but of course what is really important is the timing of this. we are in the middle of an election campaign, an election campaign which the prime minister has said rests on the fact, his belief that the economy has turned a corner. does the fact that the economy flatlined in april put that to question? of course, what we do know is that in april price rises, inflation, that did ease off somewhat, and the hope is that easing off will continue late into the year. that might well increase consumer plea possibility to spend, which is another really important to make up of the gdp figures, so that could mean that post—april we do continue seeing some growth in the economy. however, at the moment, as you say, april utterly flat. no growth whatsoever. really important caveats as i said, but in the middle of an election campaign, it could be really important.— really important. peter in newcastle. _ really important. peter in newcastle, thank - really important. peter in newcastle, thank you - really important. peter in| newcastle, thank you

across europe — a disease that is normally associated with tropical areas. scientists say climate change is creating favourable conditions for the insect in europe. authorities have been monitoring their spread as far north as paris, where the olympic games will take place at the end ofjuly. the prosecution is expected to open its case in the retrial of former nurse lucy letby today. she is charged with attempting to murder a baby in chester in february 2016. letby denies the charge. heavy rainfall meant flights were unable to take off from spain's third biggest airport because of flooding on its runways. eyewitnesses at palma airport described chaotic scenes, with passengers running for cover from the water pouring through the roof. all flights were grounded, with planes redirected to other airports. the outlook for progress to end the fighting in gaza is looking uncertain after hamas issued its first formal response to the ceasefire plan outlined by president biden and backed by the un security council. the hamas statement said it was ready to deal positively with efforts to reach an agreement, but then an unnamed israeli official said the response amounted to a rejection. earlier we spoke to our middle east correspondent yolande knell. first of all with hamas, it gave the briefest of statements saying it had handed over its response to the mediators, and it reiterated in the statement that it wanted a complete end to what it calls israel's aggression on gaza and a complete withdrawal of israeli forces from the entire gaza strip. now, there was a hamas official who came out afterwards saying this response opened up a wide pathway, he said, to reach an agreement. but then, although the israeli prime minister's office didn't give its response to what hamas had said, an official was quoted widely in media here saying that really this changed all of the most meaningful parameters, amounted to a rejection of a proposal on the table. i think what is going to be key is to hear back from the mediators who are also now studying this deal, and the hamas amendments that are being suggested, key among them the white house, and we have also got us secretary of state antony blinken who is back in the region, he is going to be in doha later in qatar, playing a key role. yolande knell. sir rod stewart has said that it's time david beckham was given a knighthood. can he do that? he has got a knighthood himself, so he is good enough as a recommendation if you are trying to apply for one, a good name to have on your application form. but yes. the singerjoined king charles at an awards ceremony for the king's foundation which is his majesty's charitable trust. i'm also wonderfully honoured to be a knight, and david, yours is coming soon. laughter it is coming soon, not even it might be coming soon. maybe you know something that we don't. maybe they have been having a chat. this is the king and david having a chat, i bet they don't mention that at all. this was an award ceremony for the king foundation which is his majesty's charitable trust. and we do know what these two are talking about, an unlikely subject. beekeeping. there you go. it is apparently the thing to be doing at the moment. maybe thatis to be doing at the moment. maybe that is the way to get a knighthood! that is where we are going wrong. it is 12 minutes past eight. we are going wrong in too many ways, john. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. always going right. i was just going to say, the weather has gone wrong as well! it was cold this morning. good morning, everybody. it is going to be a cold day for the time of year once again, and we are starting off on a fairly cloudy note, but what you will find is in the west as a ridge of high pressure starts to establish itself across us, we will see brighter conditions this afternoon with fewer showers. so we still have this key northerly breeze coming down the east coast. again a lot of cloud in eastern areas, fewer showers in the west and if anything through the course of the afternoon, for south—west england, wales, into the midlands, it will brighten up with sunny spells. east anglia, lincolnshire, yorkshire, hanging onto a bit more cloud, but west england seeing some sunshine. bright spells in northern ireland, but central and eastern scotland hang onto more cloud. through this evening and overnight, the skies were clear, many showers will fade and we see the arrival of another weather front coming in from the west, and that is going to bring in a bit more cloud followed by some rain and strengthening winds. it will be another chilly night, temperatures in the highlands falling to about 2 degrees. tomorrow we start with some sunshine, but it won't be long before the cloud in the west building, and then we start to see the rain push from the west towards the east, accompanied by gusty winds. through the irish sea we could have gusts of up to 50 mph, but areas around their will also be windy. these are our temperatures, 11-18 . windy. these are our temperatures, 11—18 . something you will notice is we lose the northerly component to the wind and pick up more of a south—westerly. if you're wondering what happens beyond thursday, it does remain unsettled. we are looking at showers, some of those merging to give longer spells of rain, at times you might hear the odd rumble of thunder. temperature is still a little below average for the time of year for most of us, and it will be breezy on saturday in the south and also the south—west. so summer still isn't putting in an appearance even through the next few days. indeed. carol, we are asking this morning how often we'll check our phones. are you quite disciplined? i am not! phones. are you quite disciplined? iam not! i'm phones. are you quite disciplined? i am not! i'm always on my phone, because my life is on there. we all are, aren't we? carol, thank you. stay with us, because you will be interested in this. how long do you think you could last without your smartphone? a few hours? a few minutes? we've followed a group of teenagers to see how they cope without their smartphones for five days as part of a bbc radio 5 live project. 0ur reporter kristianjohnson joined them to see how they got on. on friday, i received 479 notifications. it's fair to say some teenagers are pretty glued to their phones. 0k, guys. point of no return. thank you very much. but this group of students are doing the unthinkable — locking them away for almost a week. you said your goodbye? yes. good. no tiktok, no snapchat, no whatsapp. so, guys, these are your new... oh, my god! ..mobile phones. instead, they'll be using these for the next five days. the only way of communicating — texts and calls. i'm on a nokia. guys, do you want to see something? mum, this is weird, i don't like it! oh, my gosh! they're going to have to learn a whole new set of skills - for the next week to be able i to adapt and continue their life as close to what it used to be. but with that mobile - phone underpinning most of their activities, _ it's going to be a real challenge. so in the mornings, usually, i'll, like, search up the travel times, because then i know, "oh, yeah, i need to leave in five minutes. oh, yeah, i've got a little bit of time before i need to leave." but with, like, without a phone, i've got no way of knowing when the next tram will be. and not being involved in group chats means it's harderfor ruby to meet up with friends. i feel like with the nokia, i'm kind of missing out a bit more on social interaction. like, we always go bowling or something. we've not organised anything so far. 0k. so i'm 52 hours into the detox. i'm finding it ok. i don't think it's difficult oranything, like. two days into the journey, and while ruby's coping well, charlie has already given into temptation. it's genuinely hard and you don't have it. it's like having, like, a comfort item for how many ever years and itjust goes... it was really stressful. some others are struggling too. not knowing what's going on in, like, a group chat, itjust makes me like, "what am i missing out on?" but most are focusing on the positives. without my phone, i feel like i'm actually learning stuff and engaging more — noticing stuff around me, which i probably should be doing anyways but i'm just too addicted to my phone. usually before i go to bed, i usuallyjust watch, like disney+ for like an hour and then just drift off. but since then, i've just gone straight to sleep and it's weird. feels much better. the more time goes on, i it like becomes a lot easier to think of things to do _ because you've not got your phone, so you're like, "oh, new message." will's journey home takes over an hour. announcement: this is i a service to etihad campus. a tram first, then a bus. so in terms of not having a smartphone, it makes it more difficult because i can't check the timetable. and when they say it's been delayed or something, i could at least ring my dad and ask for a lift, you know? will's mum, alison, admits not being able to use family tracking apps like life360 is a hindrance, but she's noticed big changes in her son just three days into the detox. it's actually quite nice seeing you without headphones. i don't see you that much normally. no. i think it's just become the norm. whereas actual social interaction does require you to put these things away, and... yeah. ..engage a little bit more. five days later, it's the end of term and time to get those smartphones back. got yours? yeah. maybe i'll put my phone away in the car and i'll put my phone away, like, when i'm around my friends. but in general, like, going on to tiktok and everything, i'm still going to do that. like, ifanything, i'm going to do it more now. i think it's been pretty difficult without a smartphone, - but i've managed to get through it all right. - i'll try and use less - of tiktok, that's for sure. i know my screen time is quite high on that. i judging by their initial reaction, perhaps the students aren't quite ready to give up their smartphones entirely, but the detox might start to slowly change their habits. kristian johnson, bbc news. brave! we're nowjoined by vice principal sharon cross, and pupils ruby, loreann and charlie, who took part. good morning. thank you so

west kensington. two 18—year—olds, who voluntarily returned from morocco on saturday, have also been charged with his murder, along with five others previously. parents and staff are campaigning against proposals to close a nursery in tower hamlets. the westfield nursery�*s been running on the queen mary university site since 1992 but the university says since the pandemic the number of children who use it has fallen significantly and it's running at a loss. it says it's doing everything it can to help parents and carers find alternative arrangements. the nursery�*s manager says the staff are devastated. we were shocked. we were just numb. you know, people started asking about, "what are we going to do? this is our livelihood. no—one has said anything to us." and some staffjust broke down, you know, with shock. and with childcare being one of the big issues in next month's general election — we'll be looking further into it — on our programme tonight at 6.30pm. now, this week marks the seventh anniversary of the grenfell tower fire, which led to the deaths of 72 people. eighteen children were among the victims and young people are heavily involved in events this week to mark the anniversary. many of them live on local estates near the tower block and have been supported by community groups. it always surprises me, actually, how many of the children still engage in things when it comes up to the memorial and the time of the memorial and how much interest they still have and curiosity. i think you have to remember that a lot of them live in the locality, so the tower is very much a part of their everyday life and has been all their everyday lives. let's take a look at the tubes now. the elizabeth line has minor delays and there are severe delays on the victoria line. another chilly start — let's get the weather with kawser. hello. good morning. well, it's a largely dry start to the day and quite a cool start as well. but today the cloud will thin and break. we'll see some decent spells of sunshine developing, but also the chance of some scattered showers. now, the main focus of these showers today will be across more central and eastern parts. and some of these could be heavy, possibly thundery, with the best of any sunshine to end the day across western areas and temperatures reaching around 15 to 17 celsius. now, for this evening, still a few showers for a time, but they'll fade away. it becomes drier overnight with clearer skies quite widely and temperatures will dip down to around 6 to 9 celsius with lighter winds, maybe one or two patches of mist or fog. looking ahead, well, a dry start to thursday, but we have this area of low pressure arriving in during the day, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain by thursday evening overnight into friday. and some of this will be heavy and persistent at times and some strong westerly winds, too. once the system clears through on friday, we're left with some sunshine, some heavy showers and the weekend, too, will see some showers at times. there's plenty more on our website, now, it's back to sally and jon. bye— bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. as the general election campaign continues, we are hearing today that trust and confidence in uk politics has never been worse — that's the stark findings of a new report, which has examined the public�*s perception of governments from the 19705 to the present day. the analysis also suggests a record numbers of voters "almost never" trust politicians to tell the truth. our home editor mark easton has more. jingle: radio humberside. what do you want to hear from the politicians ahead of the general election? let me know. the voters of hull tend not to get excited about elections. the city had the lowest turnout at the last one of anywhere in the country, and it doesn't take long to find out why. the hopelessness is just, what's the point? it doesn't matter who i vote for, it's all going to be the same. will you be voting? me? it's a waste of time. waste of time, voting. i have no faith in any of it. none. tony martin, hull born and bred, contacted the bbc�*s your voice your vote because he feels so angry that politicians are taking people for fools. i am absolutely fed up to the back teeth of not hearing the truth. politicians in every party seem to treat us like idiots. you obviously feel really strongly about this. i do. i've never known the decline that we've experienced, not just this year, but probably for the last ten or 20 years. it's notjust yorkshire skepticism. a new report from the national centre for social research finds that across the country, trust and confidence in politics and politicians has never been lower. this election is being held amid a collapse of faith in our democratic systems. the report finds 45% of voters would almost never trust the government to put the country before their party — the highest proportion ever. 58% would almost never trust politicians to tell the truth when in a tight corner — a figure that's never been higher. changing the electoral system under which we'll all be... the report's author, the doyen of election analysis, professor sirjohn curtis, told me he's detected a sense of desperation among the electorate. these figures mean that we are now less trusting, less confident in our system of government than we have been at any point during the last 40 or 50 years. the report suggests voters think the way we're governed is broken. eight in ten say the system needs improving quite a lot or a great deal, with more than half wanting the voting system changed to one which is fairer to smaller parties. it's not boiling hot. it's not freezing cold. so what is the answer? many of the parties promised to give more power to the people. this part of yorkshire is due to have its own regional authority and most manifestos propose to devolve more control to such bodies. but hull is at the forefront of a grassroots movement to counter political apathy by creating people's assemblies. people need to have the power to make decisions for themselves. they've lost faith in politics from the top, and they need to really feel ownership over a movement that's coming from the bottom — something that meets their needs where they are. all sorts of people from a local community, who wouldn't - normally necessarily meet, - come together and discuss what's important and what they might do about things. i disillusionment over brexit, political scandal and economic crisis — all are blamed for the lack of trust. whoever wins the election will have an urgentjob to restore the nation's faith in its democracy. mark easton, bbc news, hull. staying with politics. the green party will launch its election manifesto for england and wales today. they're promising a £50 billion a year investment into the nhs and social care. they say it'll be paid for by a tax on higher earners and the wealthy. let's get more on this now. we'rejoined by the party's co—leader adrian ramsay. morning to you. we are going to talk tax in a moment. i want to ask you about the story, about trust. how will you make the voters trust the green party? i will you make the voters trust the green party?— green party? i think that is a really good _ green party? i think that is a really good question, - green party? i think that is a really good question, sally, l green party? i think that is a i really good question, sally, at a time when people have lost trust in politics, particularly after the scandals of recent years. people are looking for something different, they are looking for parties to be really honest. in publishing a manifesto today, we are setting out our proposals and how we would fund them because we want to be honest with people if we are going to restore public services and invest in a transition to a green future with all the benefits that brings, if we are going to address the crisis of housing where people cannot afford to live in local communities, we need to pretend money to sodi. being honest with people is an important start and being active on the ground. i speak

corners of england and wales. winning seats in urban and rural areas from labour and the conservatives, young and old voters alike coming to support the green party. i spoke to a lady the other day who said to me she is voting green for the first time because she is thinking about what the future will be like for her children and grandchildren. so many people are saying the same to us. equally young people, priced at being able to live in the local community, private rent is skyrocketing and the green party are saying we need to cap private rents. we have things to offer people of all ages and generations and backgrounds. that is why we have such a wide range of people coming to support the green party right across the country and what is our most ambitious election campaign ever. , :,

assets over 10 million being asked to pay a 1% tax on those assets over 10 million that could raise tens of billions a year by the end of this next parliament. it is right to ask those with the broader shoulders to contribute more in a way that will enable us to put in those investments everyone in society will benefit from. we need to get levels of public investment up to the levels of the european countries are at if we are to maintain and restore our nhs if we are to address the housing crisis, invest in schools and make sure we can transition to a greener future and make sure we can

house service they can rely on and access to affordable housing and benefit from the jobs we can create through a transition to a green economy. we are looking at asking those earning a little bit more to pay a little bit more and also having a wealth tax for multimillionaires and billionaires. it is about a transition to a greener and fairer future where we can really ensure we are investing
