National kitchens was set up 100 yea rs National Kitchens was set up 100 years ago when world war i. The idea was you got a decent meal for a small price. Should it be brought back, there are some who think it should i will speak to them today. And matt is in bedfordshire with the forecast this morning. Iam i am talking about the results of the Big Garden Bird watch. News on that and a day ahead coming up. Good morning. First, our main story. Plans to Make Britain An independent, sovereign nation will be published this morning just one day after theresa may started the process of brexit. The great repeal bill will outline how the government plans to repatriate more than a0 years worth of powers from the European Union and convert thousands of eu rules into british law. Yesterday, theresa may described britains departure from the eu as an historic moment from which there can be no turning back. Eleanor garnier reports. Cometh the hour, cometh the moment, in westminster, belfast, edinburgh and cardiff the exact moment the uk took a new and different course. This is an historic moment from which there is no turning back. The letter, hand delivered by our man in brussels, telling the eu we are on oui way out. Written in a deliberately conciliatory tone. But a hint, too, of the steel and mrs mays stands. No overt threat to walk away, but a serious warning, as she wrote a failure to reach an agreement would mean our cooperation in the fight against crime and terrorism would be weakened. We must therefore work hard to avoid that outcome. A sentence that certainly raised eyebrows, here, and across the eu, too. But despite all the difficulties, mrs may promised our relationship with the rest of the continent will be just as good after brexit. What we are both looking for is that conferences Free Trade Agreement, which gives that ability to trade freely into the european Single Market. And for them, and for them to trade with us. It would be a different relationship, but i think it can have the same benefits in terms of that free access to trade. Labour insisted it would hold the government to account at every turn. More than ever, britain needs a government that will deliver for the whole country, not just the few. And that is the ultimate test of the brexit deal that the Prime Minister must now secure. The clock is now ticking. Two years to untangle a a0 year relationship, to undertake all the interwoven regulations and legislation. That task starts today, with more detail from the government on how it plans to bring eu powers back To Westminster. Eleanor garnier, bbc news, westminster. 0ur Political Correspondent iain watson is in westminster. What can we expect on this first full day after the article 50 letter was delivered . We need to understand a lot of new terminology, dont we . Can you talk this through the bill . We will get more details of the bill today. When you think of a repeal bill it suggests a reversal or a cancellation but in fact what this bill will do is take all the existing rules and regulations and put them into british law. The government says that will give businesses certainty and will make a trading relationship easier although that will be down to future governments to decide to change any rules and regulations. Labour has complained that some of the Regulation Changes will be done without full parliament scrutiny. If you are looking at any of the newspapers this morning you will see there is a backlash over the warning in the letter to the European Council saying that the issue of trade and Security Cooperation in the same paragraph, which has been construed as a threat. The government today has said they have not been threatening although we do expect tough talking from both sides. A reminder, after 830 we will speak to david davis. The uk coastguard has suspended its search for a private helicopter which went missing over Caernarfon Bay in north wales yesterday afternoon. Five people were onboard the aircraft, which was En Route To Dublin from Milton Keynes when it disappeared. 0ur reporter Holly Hamilton is in caernarfon this morning. What more do we know .

New guidelines for the amount of sugar that should be in Everyday Foods from Breakfast Cereals to Chocolate Bars have been published by Public Health england. The aim is to cut the amount of sugar children consume by 20 by the end of the decade. Our Health Correspondent, jane dreaper has the details. It is tempting stuff. But eating too much sugar is rotting childrens teeth and fuelling obesity. 0ne third of children are overweight or obese when they leave school. Now as pa rt obese when they leave school. Now as part of government plans to tackle the problem, the Food Industry is given new limits for how much sugar should be in nine popularfoods. Companies are being urged to reformulate their product so that they contain less sugar, or to make them smaller. The aim is for the u k usual diet to contain much less sugar by 2020. We expect people to see over the time smaller cakes, biscuits, Chocolate Bars. Especially when they eat at home, in family restau ra nts a nd when they eat at home, in Family Restaurants and so on. We also expect that people will not notice the changes because we know if changes are gradually made, gradually we dont notice them. Bread is now 40 saltier than it was ten yea rs bread is now 40 saltier than it was ten years ago and i bet you have not noticed. Public Health England says these guidelines lead the world although nine foods still account for less than 9 of childrens sugar intake. Health campaigners say the plans are bald but it is important to keep up pressure on food companies. There will be a Progress Report in one years time.

She says she is offering world beating skill on beating terror, although amber rudd said that was not connected. That was picked up on the daily mail, cheers to a Great British future. People mentioning his socks. This suggestion already that, the way the mail is selling the story, the eu is whaling about the story, the eu is whaling about the pms blackmail, related to the suggestion that security is a bargaining chip on the table, and we will speak with david davis, chief negotiator of this morning.

They say that it grew 9. 3 , lots of people wondering why it is happening, because maybe they are putting taking on more debt, which is interesting given we are driven by consumer spending, people are talking about why the economy is growing even because of the uncertainty of brexit. It is because people are still confident about shopping. Whether it is their money or not. Yes. John, what have you got . Cristiano ronaldo has had an airport named after him in the Dearerand An Airport named after him in the dearer and not only that, there was a golden bust does it look anything like Cristiano Ronaldo .

Families of prisoners are increasingly being targeted by criminals using extortion and blackmail, according to organisations which support relatives. The former head of the Prison Services Anti Corruption unit has told breakfast that families are paying a heavy price for the drug crisis in prisons. In some cases, inmates are threatening to harm peoples relatives unless they pay off drug debts. Jayne mccubbin has been to hear one familys story. The latter which arrived at her house spoke of last chances, i am tired of being nice, says its anonymous order. If she didnt pay to clear a drug debt, he would be getting cut to pieces. To clear a drug debt, he would be getting cut to pieceslj to clear a drug debt, he would be getting cut to pieces. I was in com plete getting cut to pieces. I was in complete shock. He is going to get done. Straightaway there is panic to get the money and sort it as quickly as possible. The family tell me they had no choice. You knew he had a drug habit . Yes. People watching will think, you shouldnt have paid that. If you were in my position, you would pay it. At the end of the day, if you love someone, you would do that. His mother tells me he wasnt safe and he still isnt. That is why we have protected their anonymity. Beatings, stabbings, black eyes, dislocated jaw, anonymity. Beatings, stabbings, black eyes, dislocatedjaw, busted nose, you black eyes, dislocatedjaw, busted nose , you name black eyes, dislocatedjaw, busted nose, you name in, he has had it done. Where is the protection in that . None at all. I reckon he will ta ke that . None at all. I reckon he will take his life before long. There is not a day that goes by when i dont think about what is happening to him. Not one. In recent months, mobile phone footage and tv cameras have captured spiralling chaos in prison. The drug problem is well documented. What is less documented is how it is paid for. Who is paying . The families are paying. They are paying a heavy price for the drug problem. This is an illustration. We show the familys interviewed to a former Prison Governor and one time head of the Prison Service Anticorru Ption governor and one time head of the Prison Service anticorruption unit. Is it the familys fault . Prison service anticorruption unit. Is it the familys fault . Absolutely not. It is not the fault of the family. The crime here is blackmail, extortion and Everything Else that goes with fat and the families should not be suffering in this way. We should be protecting prisoners and the community. Is this a wider problem . We and the community. Is this a wider problem . We have and the community. Is this a wider problem . We have spoken with three Support Groups which work with the families of prisoners who tell me it is. Those charities told us that they are supporting more families who are the victim of blackmail and extortion. They say the numbers are still small but it is a growing problem. The Ministry Ofjustice gave us this statement. We take any allegations extremely seriously and always investigate fully. We are taking action to tackle drug abuse in prisons and those found with them can face extra time behind bars. We showed john podmore this letter from the Prison Service to the family in response to their concerns and it concludes, the only way to resolve this issue is for your son to stop taking drugs and for you to stop funding his habit. This is saying sorry, not our problem. Sorry, it is. This is extortion, it is blackmail. Yes. You think it is happening to other families . Yes, i do. I know it is happening to other families. And jayne joins us now. I guess, given the subject matter, it is hard to have a sense of the scale of the problem. We dont have official numbers, either, however partners of prisoners, the north east Prisoner Support Group and the Adviser Care Trust have told us and the Adviser Care Trust have told us it is emerging on the radar with more people coming to them saying they need help and they have no idea what to do. Pat said they are dealing with a case right now with a mother who was told through social media and tax messages and snapchat that her son will be killed if she does not put money in Bank Accounts text. Right now she is putting it in Bank Accounts because she doesnt have the confidence despite assurances that her son will be protected in prison. Pact say it is a symptom of the broader chaos in prisons with 30 less Prison Officers than we had in 2010. One former Prison Governor told me this has created a void which is being filled with criminality. Liz truss will speak later at a conference on the future of Prison Reform and she has already said and will reiterate that she believes safety and rehabilitation should be at the heart of our Prison Service. These issues are on their radar. There is a Recruitment Drive right now to hire 2500 more Prison Officers but there are problems 1, it isnt enough to get back to the figures of 2010, and there are more prisoners and back then. And two, as fast as they can recruit officers, and it isnt fast, they are losing them all the time with low staff morale. They are trying to do with it. Youre watching breakfast from bbc news. Still to come this morning are smaller Chocolate Bars the answer to cutting obesity in children .

Turkeys Elvan Abey Legesse who won the silver has been retrospectively disqualified for doping. Which means paveys been promoted to third. Its her first major global medal having won at commonwealth and european level. Rather bittersweet because when i think back to those World Championships nearly ten years ago i was running as hard as i possibly could. I had got myself into the best shape possible. And instead of it being a moment where i was being thrilled with a medal and being on the podium i was lying on the track totally exhausted and feeling despondent, and frustrated, like i had let everyone down.

Englands leading test match wicket takerJames Anderson says hes concerned that the longer form of cricket could be overshadowed by the continuing popularity of the twenty 20 game. The ecb is planning to introduce a new city based T20 Tournament in 2020. Hopefully the administrators and the important people upstairs will look at that and see a way of making sure test cricket does not fall away as 620 test cricket does not fall away as g20 grows and grows. For me, test cricket is the pinnacle. It is the toughest test of your cricketing skills. For me, i think there is a huge place for it still. And finally, a statue thats been causing a bit of a stir on social media. One that Cristiano Ronaldo might not be completely happy with. It was being unveiled at the island of madeiras International Airport, the place where ronaldo was born. Theyre renaming it the Cristiano Ronaldo airport and to honour that they presented this magnificent bronze bust. Its likeness to the real madrid superstar may be a little questionable, but it did bring a smile to his face. He knows, doesnt he . It looks nothing like him. The hero is good. And as the mouth. That one sided smile. That is quite good. I think it is the eyes. The eyes are wrong. Hairand mouth. It is the eyes. The eyes are wrong. Hair and mouth. Everything else. The face, not so good. At least he was giggling. What are you and your family having for breakfast this morning . Many of us will opt for sugary cereals and perhaps even add an extra spoonful of the sweet stuff to our food. But in an effort to tackle unhealthy eating amongst children, Public Health officials have published recommended sugar limits for the Food Industry. Lets speak to tim rycroft whos Corporate Affairs director for the food and drink federation. Good morning, tim. A very ambitious new idea from the government. Can i quote what they say . They suggest that we should aim to reduce sugar, our intake, by 20 within the next three years. Very ambitious. I think it will make us a world leader in this kind of voluntary sugar reduction programme. The industry, it will be tough, it is corrupted, the industry is up to the challenge. You set an interesting word. Volu nta ry you set an interesting word. Voluntary sugar production. How keen that will suit manufacturers really be . We see manufacturers coming forward with new products and innovations to provide healthier options. This is someone that has gone on for many years, as your previous interview said. We have been reducing salt and now we are focusing more on sugar. The industry understands that Consumers Want more options and they are providing them. They are changing products. It is something that will need to be Done Gradually as has been said that it is something that will make a difference. We know that sugar is highly addictive, and children in particular as will as young people can really crave a sugar hit from their cereal or Chocolate Bar that they or whatever they are used to happen having. If you reduce Sugar Content, dont you think that people will look for better tasting things elsewhere . I think it is very important that we widen the focus away just from sugar and on important that we widen the Focus Awayjust from sugar and on two calories because, in the end, city is about excess calories and that is something that Public Health england said they would do before long. It is easierfor the said they would do before long. It is easier for the industry to change the rest of your products on a Calorie Basis than it is on sugar so you are dead right. We need to look at this from a whole diet point of view. We havent a few interesting comment from viewers. Jane has said that if you make smaller Chocolate Bars, you also need a smaller price. Might that happen . It is important to remember that changing the recipe of the product is not a cost free exercise. Particularly big leading brands that people love, it needs to be done carefully. There needs to be research, packaging research, Machinery Needs to be changed. It is not merely taking some stuff out of the kitchen. But, also, one of the ways that manufacturers will have to lower Sugar Content is simply by making things smaller. Yes. Particularly for those products where it is not possible to substitute the sugar, we will see things get smaller. And it is right that Public Health england are out there today saying to people that they need to expect this will happen. Childhood obesity, in particular, is a serious problem and we need to tackle it in one of the consequences that we see is the recipes of products will change gradually and we will see some of our favourite products are smaller. Will we also see manufacturers ignore them because these are not mandatory guidelines . ignore them because these are not mandatory guidelines . I doubt that will happen. If you look across the Food Industry, consumers are demanding more of these options in the Food Industry will always respond to consumer demand. For the industry, this is not so much about a time limited programme, this is a commitment now to reformulate, whenever the product cycle, innovation allows it, products will be changed to make for healthier options. Thank you very much indeed. You can imagine the conversation cant you in that cereal aisle with a young child. You want this one a taste exactly like the one you already wa nt exactly like the one you already want all you want this new healthy one . Challenging. It is 6aa and you are watching breakfast. A reminder of our top stories. The main stories this morning plans to repatriate more than a0 years worth of powers from the European Union back To Westminster will begin today with the publication of the great repeal bill. A helicopter with five people on board has gone missing over Caernarfon Bay in north wales. A p pa re ntly apparently it is going to be quite a warm day today. It is notjust a rumour. Good morning. It will be for many of you. It is not completely dry. Let me show you where we are. It isa dry. Let me show you where we are. It is a Birds Eye View of the location of sandy in beds at the rspb headquarters at the Nature Reserve. It is a stunning view. Sandy in bedfordshire. We are here because of the results of the rspbs garden bird watch. We have revealed the results so far. Close to half a million of you took part. To tell us more is one of the team from the Big Garden Bird watch is jamie. Who are the movers and shakers . The robin, lots more seen this year, the losers is the tit family. Why are they suffering, they are the same sort of similar bird, are they . Similar bird, different food, so last years long spring meant fewer caterpillars for the blue tit to feed chicks. And the other thing is migratory birds . Iam not the other thing is migratory birds . I am not meant to have favourites at loads of max wax wings, stunning creatures from the northern parts of scandinavia and russia. And i reckon the weather has had a part to play in that, hasnt it . The weather has had a part to play in that, hasnt it . Absolutely, the easterly wind and the cold winters in siberia and scandinavia has driven them towards us and they are still in the Country Today Go and look for them. Thank you forjoining us this morning. Yes, the wax wings will be enjoying, not the best word, the warmth across eastern areas. They prefer something a little bit cooler, of course, but we look at the forecast and we split the country in two, eastern areas the warmest with sunshine and to the west we have the rain, quite heavy at times around the irish sea. Across South West England, the odd shower, dry and sunny for some in the rush hour. A little sunny in wales, misty in the west, with patchy rain. Extending across the irish sea, the isle of man, cumbria, eastern Northern Ireland and increasingly south west scotland, although much of scotland will be dry. Sunshine here and there. Much warm in the east. The same for the north east of england compared to yesterday. Clout and spots of rain through the day. Across Eastern Parts of england, one or two isolated showers around. Dont be surprised if it starts to rain. Fairly isolated, few of us will see them and it wont last too long but away from that we have high cloud around, spells of sunshine coming through and the sunshine will develop further through the day for pa rt develop further through the day for part of southeast east anglia, the midlands and even Eastern Parts of wales with the warmest conditions here. Raining in around the irish sea areas and extensive in scotland through the afternoon with heavy bursts. Even in the rain, temperatures above where they should be with wind from the south, most in the midteens, some have the upper teens and four east anglia and the south east, the low 20s, maybe even 23 could be the high. Now, we continue with mild conditions tonight. It will turn wet in the west with the rain more extensive, a little more heavy as well and that will push further north and east. A mild start to tomorrow. Fairly cloudy. A small area of Rain Will Push East across england and wales. Wettest conditions to begin in North West England, eastern Northern Ireland and increasingly into scotland, heavy rain at times for you. But for most it will be dry tomasin is well on friday and temperatures not as high as today, quite warm, highs of 18 or 19 degrees. Starting to turn cooler on saturday. Rain possiblejust about anywhere in the form of heavy showers. Fairly slow moving with light wind. That all clears through and we see things dry and cool on sunday. Lots of sunshine around. That is how the forecast is looking andi that is how the forecast is looking and i will leave you again with a spectacular Birds Eye View from us here in sandy. Back to you charlie and sally. You are just showing off. You definitely win the best view of the day. Gorgeous. Thank you. We will bring you right back down to earth. Steph will, anyway, talking about how people are employed, self employment, short Term Contracts. Yes, it is a lot more flexible. With short Term Contracts and freelance work, many praise the so called gig economy for offering employees flexibility. And i obviously dontjust mean music gigs, it could be taxi drivers or careers. Earlier this month one Business Group estimated that 1. 3 Million People work in this way and they expect that number to keep rising. Mps on two committees are currently taking evidence about conditions for gig economy workers. Nigel mackay is an Employment Solicitor at leigh day, which is representing the deliveroo couriers. So, tell us, nigel, you are involved in this case at the moment where deliveroo drivers are unhappy. That is right, at the moment deliveroo treats writers as Self Employed. So effectively they are running their own business when they carry out theirjobs delivering food. We say Thatis Theirjobs delivering food. We say that is misleading the relationship. So, workers or even employees, like someone so, workers or even employees, like someone working in any otherjob, and there are different factors you look at when you determine that. And in this case what we see is the control in particular that the company has over its workers, it requires them to carry out work in a certain way, it has a Recruitment Process , certain way, it has a Recruitment Process, it has a Performance Management process, if they dont do jobs in enough time, they can be terminated from the system, and they have to wear a uniform and carry a box with a company logo, so it is ha rd to box with a company logo, so it is hard to see how they can be Self Employed when they are obviously integrated and part of the business. What are the rights that they want and that they feel they dont have . They want and that they feel they dont have . In particular, they are looking to ensure they are going to be paid the minimum wage. At the moment there is no guarantee for people who are genuinely Self Employed. People who are genuinely selfemployed. That is because they get paid for the individualjobs. They might only get one and allah, less tha n they might only get one and allah, less than the minimum wage, is that the problem . Essentially it is the problem, although deliveroo has a mix, it has some shifts and some paper drop as it calls it, but it could work out that they get less than the minimum wage pay per drop. Than the minimum wage payperdrop. The other thing is holiday and sick pay. Yes. Workers are entitled to holiday, to accrue holiday when they work, and to be paid for that, and at the moment Deliveroo Riders dont get that. The other important thing that workers are entitled to is protection from discrimination. If you are a worker, your employer shouldnt discriminate against you. Something talking to Deliveroo Riders is that deliveroo has introduced a new rule that 16 and 17 year olds can no longer work for them which is potentially age discrimination. If we can show that they are workers, then they could be entitled not to be discriminated against. Deliveroo say they cannot comment on the latest claim and say they are proud to offer well paid work to 15,000 Self Employed uk riders and will continue to work closely to ensure that as a Company Continues to grow in the uk the riders benefit from the growth. There is lots of writers who are with deliveroo who are very happy. You represent 20 who are unhappy. There are 15,000 representing them. We have around 20 at the moment who we started proceedings for and lots of other people are joining the claim as well. It is quite difficult to establish people who are happy and unhappy. One thing i would say is that nothing in our claim will prevent flexibility, sojust is that nothing in our claim will prevent flexibility, so just because workers work flexibly doesnt mean they shouldnt be entitled to workers rights. We are not saying people should be forced to work a certain amount of time, we say when they work they should have the right they work they should have the right they are entitled to. Thank you for your time this morning and that is it from me for now. And we are staying with food, my favourite subject. Imagine going to a restaurant where the meal costs just a pound. That was the aim of National Kitchens, set up by the government during the First World War to help ensure everyone had access to food. Well, 100 years on, there are calls to revive the concept. Brea kfasts tim muffett is in liverpool to find out more. Good morning. Going back100 years, a mealfor six shillings, the idea of about £1 in todays money, brought in with the world war i food shortages, it was a way of people being fed, at a pretty good price but the idea of is it a good idea to introduce it . Today, National Kitchens will be introduced for one day only. Doctor bryce evans from liverpool the university, why are we bringing back National Kitchens . have research National Kitchens from a while and funding from the arts council has come in so we want to create this across britain. Very exciting. This is the inaugural event. The idea being how to think about social eating. We are very used to the food banks at weekend do better than the basic food bank model. If we look at the past in this country, 100 years ago the model was communal dining. And as you will see from the students here, flowers, nice decorations, these would be centres of civilisation. Backin would be centres of civilisation. Back in time, why was it brought in, what was important about it, and is it relevant in 2017 . It is very releva nt it relevant in 2017 . It is very relevant with the talk about brexit but young people didnt choose to be living under austerity. So you see quite a strong Food Movement today amongst young people. That is a strong thing for this generation. We have a genesis and easier. Bacca100 yea rs we have a genesis and easier. Bacca100 years we had communal dining amnesia. And interestingly it was state sponsored. They were run locally but they were sponsored by the state. If we look at the role of the state. If we look at the role of the state. If we look at the role of the state today and how that has shifted. Interesting thoughts. Not eve ryo ne shifted. Interesting thoughts. Not everyone would agree with them. Lets talk to gaby homes from the realjunk food lets talk to gaby homes from the real Junk Food Project in lets talk to gaby homes from the realJunk Food Project in liverpool. We created a three course meal for £2 79 per head. Using food from supermarkets around the city, we use cheap cuts of meat, root vegetables, tinned food, so it is easy for people to make a hearty and nutritious meal. Thank you very much. We will talk more a bit later. Some of the volunteers as well. This event kicks off at 7pm this evening. There will be others across the uk in the next few weeks. It is an interesting idea, Feeding People Cheaply and healthily, it is hoped. 100 years old, relevant today we will have to wait and see. It looks fantastic. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london news. Im victoria hollins. Former mayor of london Ken Livingstone faces being expelled from the labour party when he appears before a Misconduct Panel later. Mr livingstone was suspended a year ago after claiming that hitler supported zionism in the 1930s during an interview on bbc radio london. Hell face a private hearing in westminster, but says it was a misunderstanding and he had no intention of causing offence. Police investigating the murder of a woman whose body was discovered on allotments in colindale are appealing for people who own other plots there to come forwards. 80 year old lea adri soejoko, also known as lea hulselmans, was found inside a lock up store there at the end of february. Detectives say there are 90 allotments on the site and they need the owners help to work out what happened to the pensioner. A new £2 millionjellyfish exhibition is set to open at the london aquarium. The new tanks hold Thousands Ofjellyfish and has taken three years to create, with four Staff Members dedicated to breeding and caring for the underwater creatures. So, what we have here is a tube full of baby jellyfish, 100 or so pulsing around. They look like stars at this stage, and these will turn into the adultjellyfish. So, even the biggest jellyfish in the ocean, like the lions mane, which is 37 metres long when fully grown, will start off like this, one to five millimetres in size. Lets have a look at the Travel Situation now. Good news on the tube, as theres a good service on the tubes this morning. On the roads clockwise traffic on the m25 is slow throuth5, the sevenoa ks interchange, following an earlier accident. The queues are delaying traffic on the westbound m26 on the approach to the interchange. Traffic on the a13 is slow westbound from rainham into barking. In the city, Aldersgate St remains closed southbound for Emergency Water work, with delays for traffic btw barbican and london wall. Lets have a check on the weather now with lizzie rizzini. Good morning. We are all in for a lovely day of weather and it could be the warmest of the year so far. Always plenty of high cloud around, so it will be bright rather than sunny for much of the day, but still some Sunshine Developing. And we start on a mild night as well, double figures about everywhere across the region. Lots of high cloud around this morning. It will gradually thin and break. We will have sunny spells coming through. A Southerly Wind pushing from the near continent. Top temperatures 21 or 22 degrees. A bit of a one day wonder, though, in terms of temperature. It wont be as warm as this tomorrow. Overnight tonight we will see Plenty Of Cloud around. We should stay mostly dry and we will start the day tomorrow on a dry note at around 11 or 12 degrees. So another mild start to the day but there will be some outbreaks of just light rain and drizzle tomorrow morning. That is actually a weak cold front coming through and it will bring fresh air behind it so that by the time we get to the late morning tomorrow and the afternoon it will feel fresher. Top temperatures tomorrow 16 or 17 degrees. Some sunny spells in the afternoon. Sunny spells and heavy showers on saturday. More sunshine on sunday. After the starting gun is fired for Brexit The Process to take power back from brussels begins today. The government will set out plans to convert thousands of eu rules into british law as it publishes details of the great repeal bill.

National kitchens we introduced 100 yea rs National Kitchens we introduced 100 years ago during world war i. The idea was to feed people cheaply and healthily. Should they be bought back . Some people think so. And matt is in bedfordshire with the forecast this morning. Good morning to you. I am at a Nature Reserve here talking about the results of the Big Garden Bird watch. They also have news of warm weather today across the east of england. For some, we still have rain and the forecast, details in the next 15 minutes. Good morning. First, our main story. Plans to Make Britain An independent, sovereign nation will be published this morning just one day after theresa may started the process of brexit. The great repeal bill will outline how the government plans to repatriate more than a0 years worth of powers from the European Union and convert thousands of eu rules into british law. Yesterday, theresa may described britains departure from the eu as an historic moment from which there can be no turning back. Eleanor garnier reports. Cometh the hour, cometh the moment, in westminster, belfast, edinburgh and cardiff the exact moment the uk took a new and different course. This is an historic moment from which there is no turning back. The letter, hand delivered by our man in brussels, telling the eu we are on our way out. Written in a deliberately conciliatory tone. But a hint, too, of the steel in mrs mays stance. No overt threat to walk away, but a serious warning, as she wrote a failure to reach an agreement would mean our cooperation in the fight against crime and terrorism would be weakened. We must therefore work hard to avoid that outcome. A sentence that certainly raised eyebrows, here, and across the eu, too. But despite all the difficulties, mrs may promised our relationship with the rest of the continent will be just as good after brexit. What we are both looking for is that comprehensive trade agreement, which gives that ability to trade freely into the european Single Market. And for them, and for them to trade with us. It would be a different relationship, but i think it can have the same benefits in terms of that free access to trade. Labour insisted it would hold the government to account at every turn. More than ever, britain needs a government that will deliver for the whole country, not just the few. And that is the ultimate test of the brexit deal that the Prime Minister must now secure. The clock is now ticking. Two years to untangle a a0 year relationship, to undertake all the interwoven regulations and legislation. That task starts today, with more detail from the government on how it plans to bring eu powers back To Westminster. Eleanor garnier, bbc news, westminster. Our Political Correspondent iain watson is in westminster. What can we expect on this first full day after the article 50 letter was delivered . So the two. Can you explain the procedure . We are getting some of the details of this grandly titled great repeal bill. The bill follows later in the spring and will come into force on the day though we leave the European Union. It is ambitiously titled and when you think of the word repeal you think of, perhaps, a reversal, but what it will do is bring in all the eu laws and regulations into uk law. The government says this is a good thing because in effect we will be waking to the same standards as our current european partners, we will have the same rules, and that will make a future trading relationship that much easier. Some Big Policy Changes will have to go into separate laws. Things such as immigration will require separate parliament where its grigory. There has been a linking of the trade deal with Security Co Operation that some people have been suggesting that the reason may is attempting to blackmail and the chief negotiator of the Eu Parliament said he would not use the word blackmail because he isa not use the word blackmail because he is a gentleman. It is a bad start and Government Ministers have been anxious to stressed that the government is not threatening people but, to be perfectly honest, at the start of the negotiation i would expect it to talk from both sides. After 8 30 well be speaking to the Secretary Of State for exiting the eu, david davis. The uk coastguard has suspended its search for a private helicopter which went missing over Caernarfon Bay in north wales yesterday afternoon. Five people were onboard the aircraft, which was En Route To Dublin from Milton Keynes when it disappeared. Our reporter Holly Hamilton is in caernarfon this morning. What more do we know . What more do you know . We know that this was a privately owned helicopter with five people on board. We know it left milk and he is shortly before Midday Yesterday morning and was supposed to go to dublin, stopping here in caernarfon but unfortunately it never arrived. And with radio control lost and no sightings the uk coastguard was immediately informed. They launched their Search Operation shortly after four oclock yesterday afternoon. That operation, involving two coastguard helicopters, surged this area from north wales to dublin by sea area from north wales to dublin by sea and by land and that surge had to be called off late Last Night Due to be called off late Last Night Due to very Poor Visibility and Weather Conditions. North wales police took over that Search Operation on land last night. They introduced Mountain Rescue Teams focusing on the snowdonia area. Like i said, we do not know a lot at this point about the individuals on board the aircraft. We know that it is a twin Red Squirrel Helicopter and members of the public have been asked to get in touch as they saw the helicopter yesterday afternoon. The Search Operation is supposed to be getting under way this morning. Very poor Weather Conditions, still very Poor Visibility but in a situation like this it is the urgent that the operation gets under way as quickly as possible.

New guidelines for the amount of sugar that should be in Everyday Foods from Breakfast Cereals to Chocolate Bars have been published by Public Health england. The aim is to cut the amount of sugar children consume by 20 by the end of the decade. Our Health Correspondent, jane dreaper has the details. It is tempting stuff. But eating too much sugar is rotting childrens teeth and fuelling obesity. One third of children are overweight or obese when they leave school. Now as part of government plans to tackle the problem, the Food Industry has been given new limits for how much sugar should be in nine popularfoods. Companies are being urged to reformulate their product so that they contain less sugar, or to make them smaller. The aim is for the uk usual diet to contain much less sugar by 2020. We expect people to see over the time smaller cakes, biscuits, Chocolate Bars. Especially when they eat out of home, in Family Restaurants and so on. We also expect that people will not notice the changes because we know if changes are gradually made, gradually we dont notice them. Bread is now a0 less salty than it was ten years ago and i bet you have not noticed. Public Health England says these guidelines lead the world although the nine foods still account for less than half of childrens sugar intake. Health campaigners say the plans are bold but it is important to keep up pressure on food companies. There will be a Progress Report in one years time. The duke and Duchess Of Cambridge and prince harry have released a series of films as part of their Heads Together campaign designed to encourage people to talk about Mental Health. Andrew flintoff, Professor Green and ruby wax are among celebrities who have been sharing their experiences. The project aims to help end the stigma around Mental Health. The hardest thing for me initially was talking. I am not a big talk. I am from the north of england i am from a working class family. We do not talk about our feelings. At the same for me. Just not something you spoke about. We will talk more about those conversations, including speaking to two people who made one of the films, we will track to them later on this morning. A dog that was left paralysed when she was hit by a car is enjoying walks again thanks to an ingenious contraption.

Lots of reaction across the continent. Good morning, down. Many of the comments that have come across is already a stirring things up. Take is through what we hear. You should not underestimate the sadness in this city. Allah is in the room yesterday and he looked like a broken man, donald tusk, but we are already seeing a hardening of the language and a determination that negotiations will not be easy for england. The uk. With me here this morning i have two people who live and work in brussels. Effie is a journalist and jet is an mep. Do you share the sadness was expressed yesterday . Yes, for certain. Yesterday was a historic day for the eu and it is the first time in the history of the European Union as a whole that a member state decided to leave. The mood here was quite heavy. Member state decided to leave. The mood here was quite heavym member state decided to leave. The mood here was quite heavy. It was quite emotional day as well. My colleagues had tears in their eyes because at the end of the day we are all europeans despite the comp petterd divorce we are entering. The most expensive and complicated divorce in history. It was quite an emotional day. It is happening and it is real. What do you think will happen next . We already see this getting tough . It will not be easy for the uk getting tough . It will not be easy forthe uk and getting tough . It will not be easy for the uk and that is what everybody here in brussels, senior officials, saying all the time. Of course that they have to show and they want to send a clear message to everybody, as will as the rest of the Member States here that it is worse to be out than stay in. And of course it has been said clearly, it is about damage control. It is not a win win, it is about damage control. It is important to find a deal for the citizens of europe as well as citizens in the uk. And also for a transparent process to ensure the public follow what is going on and i think that will if we do it transparently lead to a fair deal. I hope we can come out stronger even though it is a painful moment in history. It will be very complicated with a lot of disagreement. Mainly for the uk. All of the standards we have built up on consumer protection, labour rights, regulation of the market, you have to deal with these things in the uk ina to deal with these things in the uk in a short time period so it will be a tremendous challenge for the uk. And i wish you the best. I hope we all get a and i wish you the best. I hope we all geta fair and i wish you the best. I hope we all get a fair deal and we can work together. You talk to people across europe, do they want a strong relationship with britain any more . I dont think so. There is diversity among eu people. You cannot speak about eu citizens as a whole thing but they are of course very different. I dont think they are very positive, especially in brussels, there are a lot of european people. They say if you wa nt to european people. They say if you want to go you pay the price. It is a difficult period for the eu as a whole. It is not about punishing the united kingdom. It is an existential crisis that the eu is suffering right now. It has to show that a high brexit is the only option. Thank you. I appreciate your time. There is a lot more to them to be done. The disagreements are opening up done. The disagreements are opening up straightaway. Thank you very much. Speak to you later on. Remember not long ago when we asked people to look in their gardens to look at the different types of birds and monitor the changes. One person has all of the answers from the survey. Matt is out enjoying the dawn chorus. Yes, we have come to the rspb headquarters and you can see i am surrounded by a glorious nature, it is in full song this morning with a beautiful start to the day. We are here to talk about the day. We are here to talk about the rspb Big Garden Birdwatch and if you are one of the half Million People out in the latter stage of january the results have been standing with a boost in birds in gardens this year, notably the robin, the highest number recorded in 20 years. And also migratory birds in winter including the waxwing, where it was a cold winter. Easterly wind helping that. One bird which has suffered has been the blue chips with numbers down around 11 . It is thought it is the wet weather from the previous years which has hampered their Feeding Arrangements blue tits. We will have more results on those through the morning. They are enjoying the weather this morning. It has been lovely and dry. Across many eastern areas it should be fine. We will see warmth across eastern areas. In the west there is cloud around. There is a bit of an east west split. Lets start with the west. It isnt wet everywhere. Dry weather in wales and South West England. Showery conditions here. For the far west of wales it is grey and misty and murky with fog over the hills and patchy rain and drizzle. For one or two it will be down all day. The rain extends into cumbria and Northern Ireland. Much of Northern Ireland will be predominantly dry. Rain edging into Dumfries And Galloway and the big thing is it is warmer than yesterday. You will notice that in north east england, not as chilly as yesterday morning. Cloud around, spots of Rain In North East England and isolated showers, east anglia, the midlands and the south east. They are few in number and isolated with most departing quickly so the rest of the day will be dry. Cloud around but sunny spells coming through, making it feel very warm across the midlands, east anglia for this time of year with 22, maybe 23 degrees. Frayne continues for those around the irish sea, wet across scotla nd around the irish sea, wet across scotland in the afternoon rain. Even here, noted temperatures holding up in the midteens. Wind coming from the south, keeping things warm, and mild weather continues through tonight. Tonight the rain will turn heavy and persistent in the west. It is largely dry across eastern areas. Patchy rain or drizzle into england or wales later. Temperatures start in double figures for most, cloud for the morning commute, patchy Rain Working Eastwards across england and wales, wettest in Northern Ireland and Scotland First thing. Scotland holds on to the rain in the morning and then departs. Friday brightens up, so if you start delivering you will see the sunshine come out later on, and pleasant once it is through. Saturday has rain and showers, Springtime Showers which could be heavy and thundery. Slow moving across england and wales with light wind, turning cooler with sunshine at times. Sunday has a chilly start but it should be a dry and bright day for many. Sunday the better day of the weekend. That is how your weather is looking. As you can see from the Birds Eye View here in bedfordshire it is a cracking start. If you have dry weather, enjoy it Birds Eye View. Beautiful collars. See you later. Thank you. Colours.

The former head of the Prison Services Anti Corruption unit has told breakfast that families are paying a heavy price for the drug crisis in prisons. In some cases, inmates are threatening to harm peoples relatives unless they pay off drug debts. Jayne mccubbin has been to hear one familys story. The letter which arrived at her house spoke of last chances. Im tired of being nice, said its anonymous order. If she didnt pay to clear a drug debt, hell be getting cut to pieces. I was in complete shock. Hes going to get done. Straightaway there is panic to get the money and sort it as quickly as possible. The family tell me they had no choice. You knew he had a drug habit . Yes. People watching will think, you shouldnt have paid that. If you were in my position, you would pay it. At the end of the day, if you love someone, you would do that. His mother tells me he wasnt safe and he still isnt. That is why we have protected their anonymity. Beatings, stabbings, black eyes, dislocated jaw, busted nose, you name it, hes had it done. Wheres the protection in that . None at all. I reckon hell take his life before long. Theres not a day that goes by when i dont think whats happening to him. Not one. In recent months, mobile phone footage and tv cameras have captured spiralling chaos in prisons. The drug problem is well documented. What is less documented is how it is paid for. Who is paying . Well, the families are paying. The families are paying a heavy price for the drug problem. This is an illustration. We show the familys interviewed to a former Prison Governor john podmore and one time head of the Prison Service anticorruption unit. Is it the familys fault . Absolutely not. It is not the fault of the family. The crime here is blackmail, extortion and Everything Else that goes with that, and the families should not be suffering in this way. We should be protecting prisoners and the community. Is this a wider problem . Weve spoken with three Support Groups which work with the families of prisoners who tell me it is. Those charities told us that they are supporting more families who are the victim of blackmail and extortion. They say the numbers are still small but it is a growing problem. The Ministry Ofjustice gave us this statement. We take any allegations extremely seriously and always investigate fully. We are taking action to tackle drug abuse in prisons and those found with them can face extra time behind bars. We showed john podmore this letter, its from the Prison Service to the family in response to their concerns and it concludes, the only way to resolve this issue is for your son to stop taking drugs and for you to stop funding his habit. This is saying, sorry, not our problem. Sorry, it is. This is extortion, it is blackmail. Yes. You think it is happening to other families . Yes, i do. I know it is happening to otherfamilies. And jayne joins us now. As you referred to in your piece, getting an idea of the scale of the problem and the subject matter. There are no official figures but we have been told from partners of prisoners and the Family Support group and the Prison Advice And Care Trust that this is an increasing problem they are seeing it more on the Support Groups and on the telephone lines. We have been told from pact that one woman is receiving Text Messages from one who says her son will be killed in prison if she doesnt pay the money. They are encouraging her to work with the police to share that information at she is not. She is paying because she is not convinced they can keep her son safe in prison despite assurances. Pact say they think this is a symptom of broader chaos in the system with almost 30 fewer than Prison Officers than we had in 2010 and one Prison Officer says this is a void filled with criminality. This trust will be ata with criminality. This trust will be at a conference later today and she will reiterate what she has said already liz truss. She believes safety a nd already liz truss. She believes safety and rehabilitation should be at the heart of the Prison Service. She has a Recruitment Drive to get 2500 officers. There are two problems. That number isnt enough to get back to the 2010 Staffing Levels and there are slightly more prisoners in the system right now. And two, the other problem, some say it is running to a standstill because as fast as they can recruit they are losing officers with low morale so it is a difficult time and it is unlikely there will be a quick fix.

Good morning. Were all in for a lovely day of weather, in fact it could be the warmest of the year so far. Always plenty of high cloud around, so it will be bright rather than sunny for much of the day, but still some Sunshine Developing. And we start on a mild night as well, double figures just about everywhere across the region. Lots of high cloud around this morning. It will gradually thin and break. We will have sunny spells coming through. A Southerly Wind pushing up mild air from the near continent. Top temperatures 21 or 22 degrees. A bit of a one day wonder, though, in terms of temperature. It wont be as warm as this tomorrow. Overnight tonight we will see Plenty Of Cloud around. We should stay mostly dry, and we will start the day tomorrow on a dry note at around 11 or 12 degrees. So another mild start to the day but there will be some outbreaks of just light rain and drizzle tomorrow morning. That is actually a weak cold front coming through and it will bring fresh air behind it so that by the time we get to the late morning tomorrow and the afternoon it will feel fresher. Top temperatures tomorrow 16 or 17 degrees. Some sunny spells in the afternoon. Sunny spells and heavy showers on saturday. More sunshine on sunday.

She finished fourth in the World Championships in 2007 but an athlete who finished ahead of her has since been disqualified for which means she will now receive aid bronze medalfor her which means she will now receive aid bronze medal for her performance. This is the image, is it . She has missed out she trained hard and afterwards was flat on her back on the track.

Kind of bittersweet because when i think back to those World Championships nearly ten years ago i was running as hard as i possibly could, i had been in the best shape i could get into.

He does not mind, he has an airport named after him. The thing to do will be to go and have a selfie with that awful trophy. Statue. Technology Companies Including facebook, google and twitter are due to meet the Home Secretary this afternoon to discuss how to tackle extremism online. It comes how to tackle extremism online. It co m es after how to tackle extremism online. It comes after the acting head of scotla nd comes after the acting head of Scotland Yard said the westminster attack should be a wake up call for firms. Injust a attack should be a wake up call for firms. Injusta moment attack should be a wake up call for firms. In just a moment we will speak to firms. In just a moment we will speakto an firms. In just a moment we will speak to an Internet Safety Expert but, first, lets speak to the bbcs media editor. First of all, why this is happening now . Well, we know that the killer, the perpetrator of last weeks atrocity in westminster used what is out which is a messaging service owned by facebook and he useditin service owned by facebook and he used it in the hours just before he committed his horrendous crime. And wright went on to the bbc this weekend and said it struck her as frustrating that what app has what we call in to end encryption. It means that the centre of the message and the Receiver Sender and receiver m essa g es and the Receiver Sender and receiver messages knowing that no one else will be able to access them. It is com pletely will be able to access them. It is completely secure and private. This is frustrating to Security Services and the police force. What amber wright has said is that we need to be able to access those messages. The problem is that the technology to access the messages does not exist. Your iphone, through example, is secure. The technology does not exist yet and the argument of the Technology Companies, certainly what they will be making this afternoon is that if they did build the technology, only bad guys would use it. People who want to hack your phone. The technology does not exist yet and we get the impression that they do not want to manufacture it. We did ask google and facebook if they would like to be involved in this conversation and they declined. This is, this is a difficult area, isnt it . This is, this is a difficult area, isnt it . It is hugely complex because you are dealing with content, speech. It goes from legal free speech right through to extremism, radicalisation and illegal content. So Companies Need to deal with training Moderation Teams so that if they receive reports of somebody being worried about a potential terrorist, they need to train Moderation Team to figure out when and in what instance you escalate that. Imagine either logistical and issues them. For example, a Moderation Team in vietnam, how do they communicate and escalate that to Law Enforcement . I used to work for we both and we had a parallel kind of thing. If somebody reported that they were worried about a person who would commit suicide, what we did was work with the Suicide Prevention organisations, past the material to them and asked if it was a credible risk. In which cases, if they said yes the information was sent to the police, disseminated to local police and they would send a squad car around. Again, the scale of the number of messages the material you are talking about. How can you achieve it . You need an expert group of criminologists, psychologists, counterterrorism, all of the companies, so that all of the companies, so that all of the companies can escalate to these experts to decide whether or not to pass on to the police. That way you would have important intelligence about those who do make a risk. And if they would agree to do this, that would make a significant difference to the situation. Obviously, if people become more aware that more of the material they are writing or saying is being monitored, surely then they would just find a different place a different way to say it. I think that is a concern. The internet is so fast and there are so many the internet is so fast and there are so many different places and apps. As charlie mentioned, it is the scale of the problem that is difficult to control and there will always be areas of cyberspace where people are able to communicate. It is worth saying that the other half of what is being discussed today is, as you mention, the sheer scale of extremist material online. There is so extremist material online. There is so much of this stuff that censoring it and dropping it from being there isa it and dropping it from being there is a gargantuan task and the idea that a tech company itself can make that a tech company itself can make that decision on whether or not this or that thing, this post that picture is unacceptable, it takes the Technology Companies into a space that they are uncomfortable with. A quick thought from me, clearly in pr terms it is bad when there is a link for things like this. Do they care apart from that . Pa rt this. Do they care apart from that . Part of the principle of these setu ps part of the principle of these setups is that they are free, free for people to do what they wish with. Exactly. And the real impact comes when advertisers withdraw advertising. That is what focuses attention. The authors of these companies they are concerned about liability issues and logistical challenges. Having an expert panel external to them to review these things who can read despondent quickly is a way in which you can tackle this. 7 a5am now. We are going to get the weather from matt, who 7 a5am now. We are going to get the weatherfrom matt, who is out and about birdwatching. Morning. Good morning. Iam about birdwatching. Morning. Good morning. I am at the rspbs headquarters in bedfordshire, a stunning location, as you can see from the birds Birds Eye View. If you were one of the close to half a Million People out spotting birds injanuary a Million People out spotting birds in january for the rspb big a Million People out spotting birds injanuary for the rspb Big Garden Birdwatch, well, the results are out and it has been a bumper yearfor many of the birds. Especially for the robin, which has seen the highest numbers recorded in around 20 years, it has been faring well indeed, it also doing well has been the migratory birds to the uk, such as the waxwing, the waxwing comes from scandinavia and europe, and a very cold winter, so they have come further west when the winter is cold across europe in search of food. Easterly wind has helped to push them away. One bird which hasnt done as well as many has been the blue tit. Weather could be to blame. Some of the wet winters that we saw had an effect on where they get their feet from and with less food around there are few in number. Even that said, most of the birds doing very well. That is in part tribute to the wildlife gardening, making them more friendly. We will have more of those results later in the programme. Lets get on with the weather. Not bad to start with sunshine breaking through. It is going to be quite a warm day for eastern areas. That is the big story. Wherever you are, a mild start. In the west we have rain to go with it. This morning if you are on the move across South West England and where will is, a little rain here and there. Not everyone will see it. The exception in central wales to the west with mist and low cloud and patchy rain and drizzle to the isle of man. And across parts of Northern Ireland. Northern ireland will have some dry weather and sunshine. And into scotland, a dry and warm start compared to the east here, the same for north east england. Parts of North West England and southwest colin, rain will develop this morning. There will be spots of rain across east anglia and the south east. Even into the midlands. Showers are few and far between and fairly fleeting as well. They will move on and then the rest of the day is set to be dry. Not only dry but a good bit of sunshine breaking through and warming up very nicely with temperatures breaking the 70 fahrenheit mark up to around 22,20 three degrees to the north of london. Further west we have rain for those around the irish sea and a wet afternoon across much of scotland. Even here as you can see it is going to be a mild day for this time of much with temperatures widely in the mid to high teens. Now tonight the rain becomes extensive across northern and western areas, heavy at times, spots of rain into england and wales but not too much further east. Temperatures holding up further east. Temperatures holding upfor further east. Temperatures holding up for most, not dropping below ten or 11 celsius. It will be a cold start tomorrow, probably wet across parts of scotland, Northern Ireland and North West England. Rain heavy to begin with. Rain elsewhere pushing eastwards across england and wales but for most it will be a right day. Dry weather through the afternoon and not quite as warm today but once the sunshine is out with light wind it will be very pleasa nt with light wind it will be very pleasant with temperatures around 18 or19 pleasant with temperatures around 18 or 19 degrees across parts of east anglia. Saturday brings a trend to cooler weather. We will see a typical spring day with sunshine and heavy showers, especially for england and wales, slow moving here, so england and wales, slow moving here, so you could be under it for awhile. Sunshine in between and with clear skies developing it be a chilly start to sunday. But a sunny day in prospect. That is how the day is looking. Here is how it is looking in bedfordshire. A stunning scene as you can agree. More from here through the morning. I love the way we have the Birds Eye View of the bird themed weather forecast. Well thought out. It is like there was a plan. Lets go to steph. A little while ago you were telling us how we were spending money on credit cards and our how to save money. Yes, lots of people want to save money money. Yes, lots of people want to save money and make money on those savings and for a long time Interest Rates have been so low that people have felt hard done by, which is fairenough, so have felt hard done by, which is fair enough, so lets have a look. If you want to put money into a tax free savings account more commonly known as an isa in the current tax year you have until midnight on wednesday to do it. Theres a maximum you can put into an isa in each tax year. In the 2016 17 tax year the limit isjust over £15,000, and that limit is shooting up to £20,000 in 2017 18. But are they worth it . Research for bbc breakfast shows the average rate on an easy access isa is below 1 . On top of that, last year the government introduced the personal savings allowance. That means basic rate taxpayers can earn up to £1,000 in interest on any savings account and not pay any tax. Anna bowes is from the website savings champion. Co. Uk. Good morning to you. You and i have taught for a long time about how it is tough on savers at the moment. How do you make money, you know, sensible saving, but it feels like it is not worth it. Is it worth it . It is worth considering. You shouldnt dismiss them. There is a lot of money in cash isas and it is going up, the money saved, so it is important to look for the best rate and try to take advantage of better than 1 . If the average is lower than 1 . If the average is lower than 1 . If the average is lower than 1 there will be higher and lower rates to get and you can get just over 1 at the moment because the competition is good at this time because people want a little bit of money to be attracted into isas. And the banks want money as well, so what difference does it make and talk us through this . It is good news because it is an extra £200 of additional interest you can earn because you are not paying the tax. The first £1000 of any savings is tax free. For higher rate taxpayers it is £500. Additional rate taxpayers dont receive anything. It means it is making it a difficult decision for people. That is because for some types of isa there is a discrepancy on what you can get on a cash isa and the equivalent non isa account. So for some people now it might be better for them to take out a savings bond as a poster at fixed rate isa, because the Interest Rate you will earn after tax is within the savings allowance, it is better. You have to look forward. If Interest Rates rise, which we hope they will do, you might end up paying tax on your savings unnecessarily. So it can be quite complicated. If someone has a bit of money and they are thinking, i am not sure what to do, how should they decide . It is complicated. I have been trying to work out what the right thing is. It is down to the individual. For people who use the personal savings allowance, they probably need to think about using it even if the interest is lower for them because the net rate on the bond might be greater. If you are a higher rate taxpayer it is important. If you have £20,000, take the best savings account you can and if in future use up all of your personal savings and you can move that money quite quickly and rapid ina isa that money quite quickly and rapid in a isa if necessary. Thank you. Wrap it in. During the First World War the government set up a National Kitchen schemes eu could get a good mealfor just £1. Sounds like exceptional value. The idea was to help everyone access good food. Well, 100 years on, there are calls to revive the concept. Brea kfasts tim muffett is in liverpool to find out more. What to you get for your £1 . Well, a decent meal and it is Pretty Healthy as well. 100 years ago they were introduced by the government. Food shortages were in place. It was to help people eat healthily. So far for one day only they have reintroduced here. Why reintroduce a National Kitchen . 100 years ago this is what people relied on. It is some way you could come and get a cheap and nutritious meal and it didnt cost the earth. They are attractive places to come. Why reintroduce this . Obviously this was during wartime. You look at food banks today, the basic food bank, they have a social purpose, but a lot of them dont have a social eating component. Maybe people dont dine together today, or talk together, and all of the things it can believe in terms of dislocation, mental problems, it is a social thing to break red. The thing about the National Kitchen in the First World War was people from all classes could come. Today we think about the poor use of food banks. In the First World War it was poor people but also rather upper class snobby people like yourself. Thank you very much indeed. We will talk late about who will be coming on this evening. Natalie from the Junk Food Project, you have put this meal togetherfor a very low price. How do you do it . The food we use the intercept from supermarkets or from other businesses, food that would have gone into landfill. It is a decent meal, what do you get for your money . For the orchid loan of £2. 79 in todays money you can get vegetable pate, people to start, pork sausage casserole and a vegetarian stew. It seems incredibly good value. This food would have been thrown away . Yes. The food we intercepted would have gone to land fill, it would have been wasted, there was no purpose for it. Fill, it would have been wasted, there was no purpose for itm sta rts there was no purpose for itm starts at seven oclock this evening at the idea is others will take place in other cities, cardiff, manchester, nottingham and maybe others as well. It is an interesting 100 year old id and some people think it could be relevant today. have a question for you, is it a jar of pickled gherkins because charlie needs to know . I believe it is, charlie, correctly identified. Yes. Clearly not the right time for a pickled gherkin but you never know. You love a pickled gherkin. Very keen. 7 57am is the time.

Healthy cheap food eaten together. That was the idea behind National Kitchens. Today in liverpool they are being reintroduced. Could the idea catch on . Well be speaking to those who think it will. And matt is serving up the weather for us from bedfordshire. Morning. Good morning. Hundreds of thousands of you out in late january sporting birds a little more realistic than this one. We have the results of the rspbs garden watch coming up and news of warm conditions across the east and a wet one in the west. More in 15 minutes. Good morning. First, our main story. Plans to Make Britain An independent, sovereign nation will be published this morning just one day after theresa may started the process of brexit. The great repeal bill will outline how the government plans to repatriate more than forty years worth of powers from the European Union and convert thousands of eu rules into british law. Yesterday, theresa may described britains departure from the eu as an historic moment from which there can be no turning back. Eleanor garnier reports. Cometh the hour, cometh the moment, in westminster, belfast, edinburgh and cardiff the exact moment the uk took a new and different course. This is an historic moment from which there is no turning back. The letter, hand delivered by our man in brussels, telling the eu we are on our way out. Written in a deliberately conciliatory tone. But a hint, too, of the steel in mrs mays stance. No overt threat to walk away, but a serious warning, as she wrote a failure to reach an agreement would mean our cooperation in the fight against crime and terrorism would be weakened. We must work hard to avoid that outcome. A sentence that certainly raised eyebrows, here, and across the eu, too. But despite all the difficulties, mrs may promised our relationship with the rest of the continent will be just as good after brexit. What we are both looking for is that comprehensive trade agreement, which gives that ability to trade freely into the european Single Market. And for them, and for them to trade with us. It would be a different relationship, but i think it can have the same benefits in terms of that free access to trade. Labour insisted it would hold the government to account at every turn. More than ever, britain needs a government that will deliver for the whole country, not just the few. And that is the ultimate test of the brexit deal that the Prime Minister must now secure. The clock is now ticking. Two years to untangle a a0 year relationship, to unpick all the interwoven regulations and legislation. That task starts today, with more detail from the government on how it plans to bring eu powers back To Westminster. Eleanor garnier, bbc news, westminster. Our Political Correspondent iain watson is in westminster. Lets pick up on some of the front pages this morning. Your money or your lives, this is about the issue linking security with some kind of trade deal, or that seems to be the implication of some of what theresa may has said . That is right. What is is causing consternation on the continent was the fact she puts that her ambitions for a trade deal and this mention of Security Cooperation in the same paragrafr in that article 50 letter that was handed over. We saw that being handed over. We saw that being handed over. We saw that being handed over to the eu by her ambassador in brussels. Now, already the reaction among some senior eu politicians has been less than favourable. Theyve been using words such as blackmail. In fact, the european parliaments chief negotiator said that he was only not using the word blackmail because he was a gentleman. This idea of linking these two has not gone down well. Here at westminster, Government Ministers have been keen to stress that they havent been threatening eu partners and, in terms of background briefings, they have been saying when it comes to nato and intelligence being shared between the Security Services, none of that is under threat, its simply that some of the things that we deal with as part of the eu will have to be negotiated, theres no way out of that, that includes for example, the european arrest warrants. These will be upfor european arrest warrants. These will be up for negotiations. But certainly some people felt it very crass to try and mention that in the same breath almost as the trade issue itself. After eight thirty well be speaking to the Secretary Of State for exiting the eu, david davis. Let us know your questions if you have any for him. The uk coastguard has suspended its search for a private helicopter which went missing over Caernarfon Bay in north wales yesterday afternoon. Five people were onboard the aircraft, which was En Route To Dublin from Milton Keynes when it disappeared. Our reporter Holly Hamilton is in caernarfon this morning. What more do we know . Good morning. The Weather Conditions have not improved and the coastguard has said it cannot resume the search u nless has said it cannot resume the search unless conditions improve. All we know about this aircraft at the minute, its privately owned. There we re minute, its privately owned. There were five individuals on board. We know it was destined to arrive in dublin, but it left Milton Keynes yesterday morning shortly before midday. It was due to stop here at caernarfon airport. It did not arrive. All communications with the aircraft were lost. It went missing from the radar. The coastguard was alerted immediately and launched the Search Operation shortly before a oclock. Now that operation involved two coastguard helicopters that searched across north wales right through to dublin both via land and sea through to dublin both via land and sea and unfortunately, due to these Weather Conditions that had to be called off quite late last night. The Search Operation was continued on land by north wales police, theyve introduced Mountain Rescue Teams to search the land and that is continuing this morning. Now, we dont know a great deal about the five individuals, we do know that it was a red helicopter and members of the public have been asked to dial 999 if they saw that helicopter at any Point Yesterday Afternoon in the area. Now, the search should be continuing this morning, time is of the essence, but the coastguard will not allow that search to resume u nless not allow that search to resume unless these Weather Conditions improve significantly in the next few hours. A federaljudge in the Us State Of Hawaii has extended the suspension of president trumps travel ban for an indefinite period. It means mr trump will be barred from enforcing his revised ban on six mostly Muslim States while it is contested in court. New guidelines for the amount of sugar that should be in Everyday Foods, from Breakfast Cereals to Chocolate Bars, have been published by Public Health england. The aim is to cut the amount of sugar children consume by 20 by the end of the decade. Our Health Correspondent jane dreaper has the details. It is tempting stuff. But eating too much sugar is rotting childrens teeth and fuelling obesity. One third of children are overweight or obese when they leave primary school. Now as part of government plans to tackle the problem, the Food Industry has been given new limits for how much sugar should be in nine popularfoods. Companies are being urged to reformulate their product so that they contain less sugar, or to make them smaller. The aim is for the uks yearly diet to contain 200,000 fewer tons of sugar by 2020. We expect people to see over the time smaller cakes, biscuits, Chocolate Bars. Especially when they eat out of home, in Family Restaurants and so on. We also expect that people will not notice the changes because we know if changes are gradually made, generally we dont notice them. Bread is now a0 less salty than it was ten years ago and i bet you have not noticed. Public Health England says these guidelines lead the world although the nine foods still account for less than half of childrens sugar intake. Health campaigners say the plans are bold but it is important to keep up pressure on food companies. There will be a Progress Report in one years time. The duke and Duchess Of Cambridge and prince harry have released a series of films as part of their Heads Together campaign designed to encourage people to talk about Mental Health. The project aims to help end the stigma around Mental Health. The former england cricket captain Andrew Flintoff and the rapper Professor Green were among the celebrities whove been sharing their experiences. A dog that was left paralysed when she was hit by a car is enjoying walks again, thanks to an ingenious contraption. Puffy, a chinese crested powderpuff, is back on the move thanks to this pedal cart, which cost £1,500. She is also having hydrotherapy to aid her recovery. Puffys owners say theyre overwhelmed by the generosity of people who contributed to her new set of wheels. I thought a crested powder puff was a biscuit but its a little doggie gorgeous. Matt will have the weather details coming upa matt will have the weather details coming up a little later on. Talking about your own Mental Health can be difficult and daunting particularly if youre feeling vulnerable or struggling to cope. But sometimes a problem shared can, quite literally, be a problem halved. Thats why the duke and Duchess Of Cambridge, along with prince harry, have launched a series of films as part of their Heads Together campaign. The project features people from all walks of life, including some well known faces. It aims to encourage people to open up and end the stigma around Mental Health. Lets take a look. When i started opening up to you and eve ryo ne when i started opening up to you and everyone around me, i wanted to get better, i wanted to live a life where i felt worthy of living. Thank god you did because from my point of view, that was realising that it was a serious Mental Health issue and that we had to treat it like that. Thats why now we are talking about it. The hardest thing for me initially was talking. Im not a big talker. I dont talk about it. Im from the north of england, im from a working class family, we dont talk about our feelings. Yes, yes, it was no different for me, from a Council Estate in east london, its just not something you spoke about. To me it seems a shame its taken us all these years to be able to be open and vocal about things. Its crazy when it comes out, it comes from being vocal. Ive seen you talk to other people, its like a unique club. Im only relieved when im with other people that have mental illness. If i see the eyes of another, we have this understanding 57bed thats the healing. Another, we have this understanding 57bed thats the healing. What an incredible thing to see people be so honest and open about it. Its brilliant to see. Joining us now are sarah hesz and Katie Massie Taylor who found they were helped by speaking to each other. You two found each other. How did that happen . We had very small babies and toddlers, we were in a rainy playground, about november, no one else was there because no one wa nts to no one else was there because no one wants to be. It was bleak. We were knackered and hadnt had an adult conversation for days, it felt like, andi conversation for days, it felt like, and i went over to katie and basically asked her to be my friend. But yes, the moment was kind of desperation. Its hard being at home with two small kids and you need company, you need to talk, you need real life interaction. Lots of mums will recognise that picture youve painted there, its very familiar to lots of us, but what did you think then, i have a challenge with my Mental Health, did you think that, ordid Mental Health, did you think that, or did you just feel isolated and lonely . I think that the last bit, the isolation and the lonelines. To be honest, as new mums will know, you are in such a haze its difficult to think about what you are when you have a small baby. You lose confidence and a sense of in a way self , its just the long days by yourself can take a toll. The thing is, the people you speak to. You describe the scenario, you approached katie, have i got that the right way around . Yes. What was your Immediate Reaction . the right way around . Yes. What was your Immediate Reaction . I was hoping someone might do that for the previous few weeks after having my second baby. I used to wander out and hope that someone would have a conversation with me and yes, sarah coming up really changed. It was a very Pivotal Moment in how i felt during Maternity Leave because we went from having long days alone by ourselves to just spending every day together. We wouldnt do anything special but we just had more fun together. How was it that you werent able to share whatever it was you were feeling up until that point . Did you bottle things up . Your husband goes to work and doesnt come back for ten hours. Other friends of mine were at work all day. It is having localfriends nearby who are going through the same thing as you. Thats what is so key i think when you are a new mum. How important is it, in the films, we see people who perhaps are in other walks of life, talking so honestly about some of the bleak times they have experienced. honestly about some of the bleak times they have experienced. I think it is amazing. You see people having these important conversations which have changed their life. It is really exciting to see these people. And there are highs and lows in these chats. There is a lot of laughs, which sounds counterintuitive, but sometimes it is very funny when people say very heartfelt things. There is quite a lot of comedy along the way. People have overcome a lot of the challenges because they have had these initial conversations, certainly we did. And you can see the sense of relief, as people recount their stories of having those conversations and it really lifting. Do you think back and think, how different it could have been if this had not happened . Absolutely, it is a life changing moment. We feel so passionately about getting mums together, just sharing the good bits and the bad bits together. Relaunched something called marched together. Very recently, we heard the Duchess Of Cambridge talking about motherhood. She said it has been rewarding and wonderful, however, even at times it has been a huge challenge, even for me, who has a support. You must be delighted to hear someone with all of her help saying that . It can be great, if we are all more honest about the challenges, like the long days alone, and the hormones and all of the things that she did such a wonderfuljob of describing fish people will go into it with their eyes open and know that theyre going to need a support network. Its going to need a support network. Its just not a natural behaviour to be spending so long alone with a small child that gives nothing back. Matt is out enjoying the dawn chorus for us this morning. Actually, have we missed the dawn chorus . I think you have, that was a long while ago i am in bedfordshire, the rspbs headquarters. Beautiful gardens around us. If you are in your garden, if you were in your garden forjanuary, doing the research for the rspb, we will have more on those results in the next half an hour. It was not so good for the blue chips. We have got the warmest, driest weather towards the south and east of the country. A little bit wetter towards the west. Blue tits. The damp conditions extending from the south west, up into cumbria and Northern Ireland. However, there will be some dry weather around this morning and during the day. In scotland, most people starting the day dry. Eastern scotland, a good deal warmer than it was. Further south, into the midlands, east anglia and the south east of england, here, theres just anglia and the south east of england, here, theresjust one or two showers to contend with, but very few in number. And they will be rather fleeting. The rest of the day, looking dry and increasingly warm across the midlands, east anglia and the south east of england. Even elsewhere, temperatures will hold up right nicely, even though there will be some cloud. Temperatures even in the cloudy it, wettest spots, into the teens. The warmest of the weather, the midlands, east anglia and the south east of england, and it could even get up to 22 or 23 celsius in this area in certain areas this afternoon. With the winds still in the south and quitea with the winds still in the south and quite a blustery day to come, temperatures will stay in double figures. Friday morning starts off ona mild figures. Friday morning starts off on a mild note. Wettest of all first thing, North West England, parts of Northern Ireland and into scotland. The rain, easing northwards, maybe lingering around orkney and shetland the longest. Sunny spells to take us into the afternoon. Not quite as warm as it will be today, but highs up warm as it will be today, but highs up towards 18 or 19, warmest across east anglia. Saturday, a mixture of sunshine and spring showers. Sunday is looking the driest day of the weekend. Back to charlie and sally. It looks absolutely magnificent there, matt. See you later on. The conflict in syria has been raging for more than seven years, causing devastation for People Living throughout the country. What began as a peaceful uprising against the syrian president Bashar Al Assad has escalated into a full scale civil war which has claimed the lives of more than a quarter of a Million People. Many more have fled the country, but what is life like for those who remain . We can speak now to our chief International Correspondent lyse doucet, whojoins us from the city of homs in the west of the country. Sadly, we are used to seeing desperate pictures from where you are, but what is life like for the people who managed to stay . Well, homs is a snapshot of the war in syria. In the early years of the war, it saw some of the biggest of the protests and some of the worst of the fighting. The opposition then called this city the capital of their revolution. But now the last of the rebels are leaving their last stronghold in the city. Which means that in a few weeks time, syrias Third Largest city will be back in government hands. But the war is not over, we heard air strikes last night, with fighting in the countryside and the neighbouring areas. When you go across this city, you can see the skyline behind me, entire neighbourhoods, mile after mile, utterly ruined. It will be such a job to rebuild it, notjust a physical structure but the social fabric as well. All syrian children will be back in school, they said but they are not that pledge. How hard is that challenge . It is a huge challenge, we are talking about millions of children to get back to education in school. It is not only about getting them back to school, but also about them back to school, but also about the reconstruction of the school buildings, getting the teachers, many of them are in another country. So, getting qualified teachers, books and materials and also the children who are living in hard to reach areas. It is even more difficult for them to get them ready for the baccalaureate exam. Because they are in a besieged a region. So, it isa they are in a besieged a region. So, it is a huge challenge but we are getting there. You are also dealing with the displaced, families still arriving, they will need shelter edwin yes. But then, together with the department of education, it is quite strict saying that this time, no schools can be used as shelters. But the need is humongous, people are taking the schools over for shelter and homes. Use thats why unicef is promoting not only back campaign, but also self learning, so that they can can continue learning and make sure there is no generation lost in syria. Thank you very much for joining lost in syria. Thank you very much forjoining us here. When you travel across, you can see even in the midst of the ruins a little bit of life returning, some people able to repair their homes. Some districts only get two hours of electricity each day. The syrian pound has lost so each day. The syrian pound has lost so much value, people are struggling to make ends meet. Syrians are hoping against hope that the worst of the war is over. Even though this isa of the war is over. Even though this is a very divided country, so many syrians want nothing more than for this conflict to end. Sadly, thats still not incite. We will be speaking to david davis, the Secretary Of State for exiting the Secretary Of State for exiting the European Union, injust a few minutes. Before that, were going to go to steph. People still spending a lot of money . Yes, it is interesting, isnt it . People are still spending, but a lot of that money is going on credit cards, and thatis money is going on credit cards, and that is what we are going to talk about this morning. A Credit Card Boom and a rise in the minimum wage steph has more on that, and the other Main Business stories. Credit card borrowing has risen at its fastest rate in more than a decade, with shoppers putting nearly half a billion pounds on plastic last month. That works out at about £20 million a day. Spending on credit cards grew 9. 3 in the year to february. It is the fastest growth rate since February 2006. This week the bank of england began a major review of lending practices in the uk. Up to 2. 3 million workers will get a pay rise this saturday, when minimum wage rates go up. The National Living wage for over 2as will go up for over 25s will go up by 30p an hour to £7. 50. The minimum wage will go up varying amounts depending on a workers age. But there are warnings it will cause pressures for employers. We will be talking more about this on the programme tomorrow. Remember when the samsungs note 7 phones had to be recalled because they were catching fire . Well, now, the phone maker is hoping to win back customers with the launch of the latest phone, the s8. Samsung was hit hard by the recall, costing them more than £a billion. Coming up in a moment on the bbc news channel is business live. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. It could be the hottest day of the year today but the other part of the story is that theres so much rain coming in. Warm air comes infrom the south and temperatures could get into the low 20s in the extreme south east. This is what it looks like mid afternoon, some rain flirting with western areas, rain getting into Northern Ireland, the far north west of england there, southern scotland and across a big area of england, temperatures in high teens and perhaps even as high as 21 or 22 there across the south east and east anglia. That pattern will continue this evening. More cloud in the west where it wouldnt have warmed up as much. Further east its dry. Its going to bea mild further east its dry. Its going to be a mild night wherever you are once againjust like this be a mild night wherever you are once again just like this night gone. Ten to 12 degrees there, those sorts of values. Tomorrow, cloudy in the west. The rain will come and go and eventually, the second half of the day it should brighten up across the west. The best of the weather, central and eastern areas. Temperatures not so high, 17 in london and a respectable 16 across yorkshire. How about the weekend its looking mixed. Saturday will bring sunshine and april showers. We are into april, so a mixed bag on the way. Come saturday, it looks like the High Pressure will build back into the uk and dry things out. Most are back into the uk and dry things out.
