manifesto, which conservative party's manifesto, which we expect to be published in the coming days. of course, those manifestos are those pen to paper set of pledges that people can pour over from the political parties. in this place we understand will be on stamp duty. this is the fact that you stamp duty. this is the fact that w“ pay stamp duty. this is the fact that you pay if you buy a property in england and northern ireland was not what the conservatives are expected to do is play to permanently get rid of stamp duty for first—time buyers of stamp duty for first—time buyers of properties, costing up to £425,000. that is an extension of an existing policy that was due to expire. it's interesting, isn't it, because some have accused the conservative party of not doing enough for young people in this campaign and they also think it's interesting because perhaps the tories are hoping to turn the page quite literally by perhaps giving us a glimpse into their manifesto book after yesterday's very difficult day for the prime minister where he had to apologise for leaving d—day commemorations early. speaking of manifestos, labour had a long meeting yesterday to sign off there's, things of increasing housebuilding, teachers, police officers, but no endorsement from debbie united, the union, one of labour's big vaxxas, they said they're not happy about some of the pledges on workers peoples rights, they say they're not going far enough. united be financial donor to the labour party. within labour and the labour party. within labour and the liberal democrats

final, will kick off seven minutes late, in tribute to burrow, who wore the number seven shirt, during his illustrious career. there will also be an applause, on the seventh minute of all matches today — and it's a tribute, that has prompted a message, from one of the sport's most famous fans. if you love rugby league and you loved what that little champion did in every single jersey ever played in, go to wembley, go to wembley and celebrate his life and his career and celebrate the rugby league community. it's set to be a special occasion at wembley as warrington face super league

there's a huge day ahead for england's cricketers today as they take on old rivals australia at the t20 world cup. after their opening match against scotland was abandoned because of rain, england could really do with a win to kickstart their tournament. they'll be in barbados for today's match — a location that brings particularjoy to one member of the england team. this is probably going to be the first time that i can have the majority of my friends and family at the cricket ground. it is great in the cricket ground. it is great in the uk but i can only get four or five maximum in that one team, travelling and whatnot but the thought that you could have so much support and everyone behind you and you do not even have to go anywhere for it. that should hopefully keep me in good stead. meanwhile in new york, canada may still be celebrating. that's after they secured their first win at a t20 world cup, beating ireland. the canadians scored 137 from their 20 overs and in response ireland lost wickets at regular intervals — and fell 12 runs short. canada — the lowest ranked team in the tournament — will face pakistan next. of course they just lost to the of course theyjust lost to the usa the other day. from new york to paris where world number one iga swiatek will look to lift the french open title for a third successive year. she faces italy's jasmine paolini in today's women's singles final. in the men's draw, carlos alcaraz is one match away from his first french open title and his third grand slam success. he won a five set thriller to reach the final — beating jannik sinner — in a match that lasted over four hours. and alcaraz will face alexander zverev in sunday's final. the german fought back from a set down to beat casper ruud in four sets — it's the first time zverev has reached the final in paris— after three successive semi final defeats. with the paris 0lympics just around the corner, do team gb have an injury concern over one of their best medal hopes? world champion katerina johnson thompson has withdrawn from the heptathlon at the european athletics championships after the opening day. coach aston moore has played down the issue — saying johnson thompson just has a 'small niggle' insisting the withdrawl is to protect her training schedule. elsewhere, spare a thought for spain's laura garcia caro who'd begun celebrating her third place finish in the women's 20 kilometre race walk — only to be pipped on the line by ukraine's lyudmyla 0lyanovska. from joy to despair in a split second. you can see it in herface! even charlie has his head in his hands here. dear oh dear. four riders in the lifeplus—wahoo team were only able to take part in the second stage of the tour of britain women thanks to the generosity of their rivals. the british—based team had more than £50,000 worth of bikes stolen overnight from a van outside their hotel. other teams loaned them spare bikes to allow them to start the stage in wrexham. world champion lotte kopecky claimed victory ahead of anna henderson to extend her overall lead over the briton to 17 seconds. with the olympics, now less than fifty days away, team gb has named the six boxers that will represent great britain in paris. one of them is charley davison — a boxer, who took 8 years away from the sport — as she became a mum. she returned to boxing in time for paris — but lost early on in the tournament. now — she's at a lower weight — and says she here to prove all mothers can achieve what they want. the support network i have around me has helped me reach my full potential. dedication, i have believed in myself and i have shown thatjust because you have children, you can still have what you want, be it reaching potential and sport, whatever it is you may want to do there is always times you can do it. it is just how much you wanted as a person. if you put your all into something you will get something out of it. returning out of the challenge

the end of the d—day commemorations is criticised by the conservative cabinet minister penny mordaunt in a bbc election debate. what happened was completely wrong and the prime minister has rightly apologised for that — notjust apologised to veterans, but also to all of us because he was representing all of us. restrictions on taking liquid items through airport security in their hand luggage are reintroduced just days after they were scrapped at a number of airports across the uk. it was a blast. yes! we are live in london for what is, of course, davej. refuge motorcade with thousands of

england and scotland were hoping for. england freeze against iceland at wembley losing to the team ranked 72nd in the world, while the scots blow a two—goal lead against finland. we will all see a little bit of sunshine at times this weekend. when the shower clouds roll your way — and there will be a few around — it will feel rather chilly in the breeze. good morning. it's saturday, 8june. the conservative cabinet minister penny mordaunt has said rishi sunak was completely wrong to leave before the end of the d—day commemorations. speaking during the bbc�*s election debate last night, ms mordaunt said it was right that rishi sunak had apologised to veterans and to the public. our political correspondent helen catt has this report. seven representatives of the seven biggest parties in great britain. missing from the stage were the two men who were vying to be the next prime minister, but they weren't missing from the debate itself. within minutes nigel farage had raised rishi sunak�*s absence from part of thursday's d—day celebrations. respect our veterans, including those with an average age of 100, who were deserted by the prime minister in normandy yesterday, which i think was a complete and utter disgrace and shows us we actually have a very unpatriotic prime minister. it was dreadful. it was cabinet minister and naval reservist penny mordaunt who had to answer for her leader. what happened was completely wrong and the prime minister has rightly apologised for that, apologised to veterans — but also to all of us because he was representing all of us. penny mordaunt was keen to take the fight to labour's angela rayner on tax. they are going to put up your taxes by £2000... that's a lie! by £2000 per working household. crosstalk your government have raised taxes to the record level in 17 years. yeah, we have, and we hated putting the taxes up. angela rayner had earlier talked about labour's plan to boost the economy with green investment. great british energy which is putting a windfall tax on the big oil and gas companies which will allow us to set up the publicly owned energy company which will give taxpayers' money back, bring down bills, and make a secure for our energy needs for the future and create thousands ofjobs. the greens said it needed more. a green economy would create jobs, well—paid jobs distributed all over the country. for example, on a nationwide home insulation programme which would bring down everyone's bills, help with the cost of living in the here and now, give us warmer, come comfortable homes, give us hundreds of thousands of green jobs. the snp's stephen flynn wanted more honesty about the economy. there is £18 billion worth of cuts baked in which neither the labour party nor the conservative party are being honest about. instead, they're having the worst of westminster argument between them tonight instead of being honest with you. the debate also covered the nhs. we're going to fix the front door to the nhs with 8,000 more gps, giving you a guarantee of an appointment within seven days. we're going to put an end to dental deserts. we'll have a mental health community hub in every single community. and there were clashes too on immigration. let's change the tone! applause. let's change the tone of the debate on immigration. you know, too much of it is framed around, frankly, the bigotry of people like nigel farage. is that the best you can do? plaid cymru will stand up to nigel farage. 0pen doors, anyone can come! of course we need... everyone come! after an hour and a half there were handshakes and smiles, but the serious race for your vote goes on. helen catt, bbc news. because all parties will be on the campaign trailagain because all parties will be on the

the prime minister apologised for leaving those dee dee commemorations early. what we are hearing is possibly on stamp duty, that is the tax that you pay if you buy a house in england, northern ireland, the conservatives are expected to say they will permanently get rid of stamp duty tax for first—time buyers of properties costing up to £425,000. that is of properties costing up to £105,000. that is making permanent and existing policy that was due to expire next year —— and existing policy. speaking manifestos, yesterday labour signed theirs off after a long secret meeting, although it wasn't a secret because of course we all knew about it, but they are expected to pledge more housebuilding and teachers. a slight bump on the road for them is that unite, the union, one of their biggest backers isn't entirely happy with some of the pledges on workers' writes, don't feel they go far enough. unite a major donor to the labour party but saying they're not going to be giving unite a blank cheque. we spoke to see the conservative manifest in the coming days, labourand conservative manifest in the coming days, labour and the little democrats next week, the snp the week after.

search going on is because television personality michael mosley went missing on holiday on that island of symi earlier this week. 0ur correspondentjoe inwood is there for us this morning. joe, looks beautiful there and yet there obviously family and friends who are so distressed at this moment in time wondering what has happened. yes, absolutely. we do actually, as of last night, have a little bit more of a clue than we did maybe 2a hours ago. so these new cctv images emerged. this matters, the initial speculation, being where michael mosley went on this walk after leaving his wife at about 1:30pm on wednesday that he had taken this coastal road and there were initially concerned something had happened to him there, we now know almost certain that he made it to a village. now the focus of the authorities is on a mountainous area, a rocky area to the north of that village, to give you an idea of the geography, the idea was he had been walking from his us following a route back to the capital, where i am, it is not a huge city, but they now thinking he doubled back around the bay and i've spoken to one of the bay and i've spoken to one of the people directly involved in the search and rescue operation this morning and they say they are now scouring this mountainous area, they think you may have taken a longer route to try to go for a hike, the other thing we have been told, have spoken to sa, is that it is incredibly risky to do that. even at this time of the morning it is seriously hot, in the head of the day it is a dangerous thing to do, thatis day it is a dangerous thing to do, that is where they are focusing their efforts and they are hoping they can find michael mosley, but time is of the essence when it is this stop absolutely. jae. time is of the essence

temporarily reintroduced at some regional airports in the uk from midnight tonight. the change is being implemented so that improvements can be made to new scanners that had been installed, but it is unclear how long the measure will be in place. 0ur transport correspondent katy austin has more. for years, people have only been allowed to take liquid items in containers of 100 millilitres or less through airport security in their hand luggage, put in a clear plastic bag. new high—tech scanning equipment should spell the end of that tiny toiletry limitation. the government has told all uk airports to install the machines but many, including the biggest, have kept the old rules for now after being allowed to miss the deadline for getting them all in place. however, some smaller airports had made the change. then, yesterday evening, came the announcement they would go back to the restriction of 100 millilitres from sunday. newcastle, leeds bradford, london city, aberdeen, south end, and teesside airports are affected. the department for transport said this temporary move is to enable further improvements to be made to the new checkpoint systems. it did not give further detail other than calling it a routine measure, not in response to a specific threat. i think itjust adds another layer of confusion right before the busiest time of the year for the travel industry. you've got people going on holiday not knowing quite what they should be packing. and when we've had this rollout of a new, exciting system delayed with variations, notjust between different airports, but within different airports and, depending on what queue you are in, is actually annoying that we have got this extra level of confusion and so, really, we need simplicity for travellers. teesside airport said the removal of the 100 millilitre limit had been widely welcomed by passengers, but it would comply with the government announcement. it added, "we hope this nationwide issue is resolved "as quickly as possible". newcastle advised passengers to put all liquids in their hold baggage and said it was working to keep disruption to a minimum. birmingham airport had installed the new scanners, but kept the liquid limits place for now. the department for transport told passengers to continue to check security requirements with their departure airports before travelling. katy

(ems morning, naga. this is a list that is published every year by the un secretary general. it covers violations against children in conflict, killings of children, and also the denial of aid and attacks on schools and hospitals, so we don't know what accusations the israeli military is facing, but again there has been criticism of the israeli army because of its tactics in gaza amid mounting civilian casualties and there has been some strong reaction since this news emerged last night. the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, said the un was delusional, that the un had added itself to the blacklist of history. the israeli foreign minister said that this decision would change israel's relationship with the un. but there has also been reaction from a spokesman for antonio guterres, who said the methodology of this report is transparent, is well—established. he described this leak by the israeli envoy to the united nations as shocking and unacceptable. so a lot of pressure on the israeli authorities and this news came just hours after authorities in gaza said the israeli military attacks another un school housing displaced palestinians, killing three people. the israeli military said this facility was being used as a base by hamas to plan and carry out attacks. hugo, thanks very much for taking us through that. hugo bachega, our correspondent injerusalem.

secretary, lord cameron, has fallen victim to a hoax caller pretending to be the former president of ukraine, petro poroshenko. here is a photo of david cameron and mr poroshenko at a european council

the danish prime minister mette frederiksen has been assaulted in the capital copenhagen. her office said a man had hit her while she was on a square in the centre of the city. an arrest has been made and she's reported to be without serious injury. but there's been strong condemnation from politicians inside denmark and abroad. helena wilkinson reports. it was in this square in the centre of copenhagen where denmark's prime minister was assaulted by a man who walked up to her and hit her. witnesses say they saw a mailshot of mette frederiksen on her shoulder causing her to fall to the side. others described what they saw. i others described what they saw. i saw the prime minister sitting others described what they saw. i saw the prime minister sitting with a friend at this table and it was one minute, two minutes afterwards other guys showed up to say and arrest and then she was escorted to some place in the middle of the square and then escorted around the corner. a man has been arrested but police have not given any further details. it is unclear what the motive was. the attack comes two days before denmark votes in the eu election. 46—year—old mette frederiksen, who is

have also expressed their condemnation. denmark's prime minister is said to be shocked following the attack. helena wilkinson, bbc news. the apollo 8 astronaut bill anders, who took one of the most famous photographs in outer space, has died in a plane crash. he was 90 years old. anders took this iconic earthrise photograph in 1968, during the first crewed space flight to leave earth and reach the moon. officials said that anders died after a small plane he was flying crashed into the water in washington state. it is one of those images that everyone has seen. everyone has seen that picture. i thought matt was looking there. it is hard to put a time and place on that but it was extraordinary. that was the first time we had seen earth from space in that way. it is spellbinding now even though i have seen that image and views of earth from space so many times. just to see that the first time must have been incredible. i could get lost in pictures like that for evermore. a good morning to your wall and i hope your weekend got off to a decent start. it was a little iffy across parts of the uk. on the cool side and remains fairly cool with wet moments this weekend but there will be some sunshine. we will also sunshine at times probably the best of which will be today not tomorrow. one thing to note is if you are a hayfever sufferer the grass poland levels have reached high's across southern parts of england and wales. that will dampen down a little bit as showers carve through back up again when the sunshine is. frequent showers into the north and west with nothing in the east. few showers in northern ireland, a damp start in north wales and spots of light rain towards parts of wales in the south—west and that is all shifting southwards so even if you have morning sunshine it will cloud over and the chance of rain coming away for a time but some will stay completely dry. notice how the sunshine then returns later on across parts of the midlands, wales, northern england and northern ireland. showers this afternoon. sponsoring north of scotland and a cool day here, ten or ii sponsoring north of scotland and a cool day here, ten or 11 degrees compared to 18 or 19 on the south. into this evening and overnight clear skies across england and wales and it will be a chilly night, not as chilly for scotland and northern ireland but outbreaks of rain. sunnis towards the south—west tomorrow and a bit of rain across western areas. back to you both. thank you so much, matt. brute western areas. back to you both. thank you so much, matt. we will see ou later. we will have eyes on the weather today for a special occasion taking place. back in february, dave myers — one half of the cooking duo the hairy bikers — died at the age of 66, two years after

accurate, this is the number of visas granted, the number of them who are dependence is pretty low, it's about one third. finally, there was a claim that defence spending was lower now than it was in the last year of the last labour government in 2009. here are the numbers. that claim from nigel farage is right, as you can see, it was up there in 2010, it is now they're a bit down. there is a lot more of this sort of back checking on the bbc news website and we will be here for the rest of the campaign going through all the numbers. yes, nick eardley there. let's speak now to the transport secretary, the conservative party's mark harper. thank you very much for your time, mr harper, i think everyone agrees that checking is usually important in this election campaign. i don't know if you had what was said just a moment ago, it was focusing on the claim from the conservatives that labour would cost working households £2000 in tax. now, is that something you are still prepared to

£2000, £2094. was that it all out for people to have a look at. we made reasonable assumptions, not outlandish assumptions, reasonable assumptions that we have set out for people to see and they are very happy to still stand by that commitment. highertaxes happy to still stand by that commitment. higher taxes under labour, lower taxes under the conservatives. it's a very clear choice for people.—

very reasonable and what they mean is that they bought because the average family £2000 over the parliament and i think that is a choice that is very clear for people and i think given the presence people are facing with the cost of living the last thing families need is the big tax bill from labour. we, by contrast, have already cut national insurance on families twice this year in a sustainable way and we will have more of that to come if there is a conservative government re—elected. i'm i sell today have set out a conservative government would ban mayors from implementing road

people and thousands of businesses and to protect them. now that cost £400 billion, and i think everyone knows that has to be paid for. we then had an energy price shock because of vladimir putin's illegal invasion of ukraine and we stood behind the most vulnerable in society to help them with their energy bills. now, that has a consequence, it has taken time before we have been able to start reducing taxes on working people, but because we have got the public finances in better shape we have been able to me too cuts to national insurance on working families already this year and we hope to be able to do more in the future as we are able to afford it and i think thatis are able to afford it and i think that is a very clear choice with what we would face with the labour government where they have made commitments that would inevitably lead to that increase £2000 tax before the next parliament. you are a senior member _ before the next parliament. you are a senior member of _

events? welcome i would agree with what the himself said, it was a mistake him to leave and notjustjust leave early and not go to the leaders' event, he was at all of the commemoration events in portsmouth, he was in all of the british events with british veterans in normandy. he didn't go to that leaders' event and he himself has said on reflection that was a mistake and he has apologised both to the country and to veterans that would have been upset by that and i think that's very clear and they agree with what he said, it was a mistake and he has apologised for it. fin he said, it

confounded by the notion that that ever could have been something you would have chosen to do in those circumstances when world leaders were carrying on with a number of events. have you managed to rationalise that? i'm looking at the words penny mordaunt used last night and she said it was "completely wrong. would you agree with her sentiments on that?— wrong. would you agree with her

said, was done ago before the election campaign was called. but it was a mistake. people make mistakes, the premise as made a mistake, has apologised for it, and he has apologised to those that would be particularly heard by. i will say looking at his record since he became prime minister he actually cares about veterans hugely, that's why there is a cabinet minister specifically responsible for veterans, why we have put in place policies to strengthen the military covenant and we have put in place measures to strengthen that as people's rights and put them into law. they know the prime minister was very moved by the veterans he met this week, both in portsmouth and normandy, talking to them about their experiences and talking to them and theirfamilies. as i said, his track record in government is supporting veterans. it also was saying our commitment to increase defence spending to do when 5% of the economy is about defending the country in the future in a very uncertain world —— 2.5%. in the best ways of honouring the past. apologies. if they understand you correctly you are saying it was always the schedule that the prime minister would leave those events early. which almost makes it more confusing that they should have been a decision that was ever taken if it was planned that way.— a decision that was ever taken if it was planned that way. well, he said the schedule —

are reallocating from the cancellation of the second phase of ages to come we have medically commitment to spend an extra a 3p over the next ten years on improving the quality of people's local roads.

improving the quality of local roads. we know that is an issue, comes up on my doorstep's and i'm knocking on doors in my constituency for many in the country on the quality of local roads is

practice makes perfect. as we all know. but then you have just got to put all then you have just got to put all the mistakes behind you and go in. the euros, the final warmup matches for england and scotland. badly wrong for england but not so bad for scotland. but the whole point of dress rehearsals, this settles down, you forget your lines in a play, it is about using that as a positive, it does not matter, it is the time to make mistakes and get it wrong so that then you get it right on the night. that is the idea, anyway. good morning. there's no more rehearsal for england's footballers — next stop euro 2024 — but they'll head to there with a sense of trepidation after losing their final warm up match. they lost 1—0 against iceland at wembley — jon dagur porsteinsson with the only goal afterjust 12 minutes — but england couldn't find a route back into the game. england's first match at the euros is a week on sunday — where'll they'll face serbia. to have the fans with you here obviously makes a massive difference, but you have to give them enough goal mouth action, you have to play well enough, press and when the ball with intensity to keep them with you during the game and we didn't do that, so we have to accept the reaction as it was. disappointment too for scotland in their final friendly. they were seemingly in control against finland — leading 2—0 with just over half—an—hour to go but then conceded two goals in the final 20 minutes to draw 2—2 at hampden. scotland kick the tournament off — against hosts germany next friday. for large parts in we controlled the game, there was some really nice stuff paid, there were a lot of changes made and some got minutes, but we didn't lose the game, everybody came through. that is the most important thing. we can look forward to it now. overnight, wembley stadium has been transformed for what will be such a poignant and special day in rugby league. the challenge cup final is always a momentous occasion, but today it will carry much more emotion than normal as the sport pays its respects to rob burrow — the rugby league great who passed away last sunday, from motor neurone disease, aged just

the boundaries to get those opportunities and to play at the top level so some similarities in that. but he would have been offering words of support and it was just a really good man and i think that

bbc had as well? , use the word misleading and we are clear it was dubious and misleading in our reporting of it. it is a dilemma and a political office has written about this is a journalistic dilemma on the bbc news website. we have no intention ever of amplifying something which is dubious at the same time it is a genuine legitimate political argument about the source of that figure and who added what figure to arrive at it and in particular in our case we thought it was misleading because the prime minister had not said in the debate that this was a four year tax burden as opposed to what most of us considered an annual tax burden in our real life. that is why we moved to describe it heavily as misleading and dubious. i think that's stood the test of time as a judgement made. the test of time as a 'udgement made. �* , ., . the test of time as a 'udgement made. �* . . the test of time as a 'udgement made. �* i. . _, . . made. but if you are concerned about not amplifying —

report fairly and provide analysis by expert correspondent and let the audience make their mind up. there was no—one who watched or listened to bbc programmes would come in any doubt that we had come to a judgement and i think it is a difficult line to tread. heat difficult line to tread. next question- _ difficult line to tread. next question. nigel— difficult line to tread. next question. nigel

likely divides the electorate and thatis likely divides the electorate and that is the nature of his brand of politics. and there are politicians all across the spectrum who divide opinion. he is now the leader of the party and a candidate and i think there is a legitimate thing to lead our bulletins with. you lead bulletins with things you think will change the course of the election campaign in some way. the fact that he is a big personality and a well—known personality and is a polarising personality, that means it changes the course of at least part of the general election. he got the lead

now we discuss how d—day locked the election out completely for the best part of two days. those value judgements we make. on the day he announced he wouldn't stand that's felt like a significant moment for reform uk. perhaps in a negative way from the point of view of their electoral chances. the opposite was true one week later. overall it was about the right balance but we are very

goodbye. good morning welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today... the prime minister's decision to leave before the end of the d—day commemorations is criticized by the conservative cabinet minister penny mordaunt in a bbc election debate. what happened was completely wrong and the prime minister has rightly apologized for that — notjust apologised to veterans, but also to all of us because he was representing all of us. restrictions on taking liquid items through airport security in their hand luggage are reintroduced just days after being scrapped at a number of airports across the uk. thousands of motorcyclists are setting off on a mammoth ride to celebrate the life of hairy biker dave myers. jayne's there to wave them off. look at this, thousands of bikers are hitting the road, they are heading 300 miles north to dave myers's home town of cumbria. there are bikes as far as the eye can see down here. they are going to have an amazing day, an amazing day in cumbria when they arrive there tonight. and taylor swift in edinburgh. we are live outside murrayfield with fans that are there and those already queueing for tonight's second show. good morning, on a poingnant day of rugby finals... as teams and fans at wembley, and twickenham, hold tributes for rugby league great rob burrow, before today's cup champions are crowned.. we will all see a little bit of sunshine at times this weekend. when the shower clouds roll your way — and there will be a few around — it will feel rather chilly in the breeze. i will have the full forecast here on breakfast. it's saturday the 8th ofjune. the conservative cabinet minister, penny mordaunt, has said rishi sunak was completely wrong to leave before the end of the d—day commemorations. speaking during the bbc�*s election debate last night, ms mordaunt said it was right that rishi sunak had apologized to veterans and to the public. our political correspondent helen catt has this report. seven representatives of the seven biggest parties in great britain. missing from the stage were the two men who were vying to be the next prime minister, but they weren't missing from the debate itself. within minutes nigel farage had raised rishi sunak�*s absence from part of thursday's d—day celebrations. respect our veterans, including those with an average age of100, who were deserted by the prime minister in normandy yesterday, which i think was a complete and utter disgrace and shows us we actually have a very unpatriotic prime minister. it was dreadful. it was cabinet minister and naval reservist penny mordaunt who had to answer for her leader. what happened was completely wrong and the prime minister has rightly apologized for that, apologized to veterans — but also to all of us because he was representing all of us. penny mordaunt was keen to take the fight to labour's angela rayner on tax. they are going to put up your taxes by £2000... that's a lie! by £2000 per working household. crosstalk. your government have raised taxes i to the record level in 17 years. i yeah, we have, and we hated putting the taxes up. angela rayner had earlier talked about labour's plan to boost the economy with green investment. great british energy- which is putting a windfall tax on the big oil and gas companies which will allow us to set up - the publicly owned energy company i which will give taxpayers' money i back, bring down bills, _ and make a secure for our energy needs for the future - and create thousands ofjobs. the greens said it needed more. a green economy would create jobs, well—paid jobs distributed all over the country. for example, on a nationwide home insulation program which would bring down everyone's bills, help with the cost of living in the here and now, give us warmer, come comfortable homes, give us hundreds of thousands of green jobs. the snp's stephen flynn wanted more honesty about the economy. there is £18 billion worth of cuts baked in which neither the labour party nor the conservative party are being honest about. instead, they're having the worst of westminster argument between them tonight instead of being honest with you. the debate also covered the nhs. we're going to fix the front door i to the nhs with 8,000 more gps, giving you a guarantee _ of an appointment within seven days. we're going to put an end to dental deserts. - we'll have a mental health community hub in every single community. - and there were clashes too on immigration. let's change the tone! applause. let's change the tone of the debate on immigration. you know, too much of it is framed around, frankly, the bigotry of people like nigel farage. is that the best you can do? plaid cymru will stand up to nigel farage. open doors, anyone can come! of course we need... everyone come! after an hour and a half there were handshakes and smiles, but the serious race for your vote goes on. helen catt, bbc news. on the campaign trail, the tories are expected to pledge a permanent scrapping of stamp duty forfirst time buyers on homes just a short time ago we were concealing to a senior conservative member, very much sticking still to this £2000 claim in relation to tax. that has become very much talking point. it's interesting, isn't it? doubling down when parties are accused of doing something wrong is perhaps more often what you see, and as you say, on that issue on that contentious claim so it is quite striking, i think, contentious claim so it is quite striking, ithink, when contentious claim so it is quite striking, i think, when yesterday you saw prime minister rishi sunak apologised for leaving those d—day commemorations early. a real moment in the campaign, an unusual moment in the campaign, an unusual moment in the campaign, an unusual moment in the campaign. i think, in terms of what we will see over this weekend, an effort by the tories to turn the page and move on from what was a very difficult day for them yesterday. we have had a bit of a glimpse of their manifesto, which we think will be released in the next few days and among the pledges, it seems, they will pay —— permanently get rid of stamp duty. that is making a permanent policy that is already in place temporarily. for labour, their manifesto was approved yesterday in a long meeting, we expect them to be promising more house building, teachers, police, but there is a contentious issue for the group that was there yesterday in terms of a contentious issue for the group that was there yesterday in terms of workers' rights and unite's major backer of the labour party has not endorsed the manifesto because they think it does not go far enough. we will finally see these documents pretty soon. as i say, conservative manifesto to be in a couple of days and labour and snp property the week after. jessica, thank you very much. it is nine minutes past eight and now we are going to focus on the search on the island of symi. it isa it is a search for the tv presenter michael mosley. who went missing while on holiday on the greek island of symi. new cctv footage has been released showing mr mosley�*s last sighting on wednesday — in a village near where he was staying. it was taken less than 30 minutes after he left the beach to go on a walk. a search and rescue operation, involving divers, helicopters and drones, will start up again this morning after being called off as dusk fell last night. restrictions on carrying liquids of more than 100 milliliters in hand luggage are being temporarily reintroduced at some regional airports in the uk from midnight tonight. the change is being implemented so that improvements can be made to new scanners that had been installed, but it is unclear how long the measures will be in place. our transport correspondent katy austin has more. for years, people have only been allowed to take liquid items in containers of100 milliliters or less through airport security in their hand luggage, put in a clear plastic bag. new high—tech scanning equipment should spell the end of that tiny toiletry limitation. the government has told all uk airports to install the machines but many, including the biggest, have kept the old rules for now after being allowed to miss the deadline for getting them all in place. however, some smaller airports had made the change. then, yesterday evening, came the announcement they would go back to the restriction of100 milliliters from sunday. newcastle, leeds bradford, london city, aberdeen, south end, and teesside airports are affected. the department for transport said this temporary move is to enable further improvements to be made to the new checkpoint systems. it did not give further detail other than calling it a routine measure, not in response to a specific threat. i think itjust adds another layer of confusion right before the busiest time of the year for the travel industry. you've got people going on holiday not knowing quite what they should be packing. and when we've had this roll—out of a new, exciting system delayed with variations, notjust between different airports, but within different airports and, depending on what queue you are in, is actually annoying that we have got this extra level of confusion and so, really, we need simplicity for travelers. teesside airport said the removal of the 100 milliliter limit had been widely welcomed by passengers, but it would comply with the government announcement. it added, "we hope this nationwide issue is resolved as quickly as possible". newcastle advised passengers to put all liquids in their hold baggage and said it was working to keep disruption to a minimum. birmingham airport had installed the new scanners, but kept the liquid limits place for now. the department for transport told passengers to continue to check security requirements with their departure airports before traveling. katy austin, bbc news. a row is intensifying between israel and the united nations after the un added the israel defense forces to a list of militaries committing violations against children — alongside hamas. earlier we spoke to our middle east correspondent hugo bachega. this is a list that is published every year by the un secretary—general. it covers violations against children in conflict killings of children, and also the denial of aid and attacks on schools and hospitals. so we don't know what accusations the israeli military is facing. but again, there has been criticism of the israeli army because of its tactics in gaza amid mounting civilian casualties. and there has been some strong reaction since this news emerged. last night, the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the un was delusional, that the un had added itself to the blacklist of history. the israeli foreign minister said that this decision would change israel's relation with the un. but there has been also reaction from a spokesman for antonio guterres who said that the methodology of this report is transparent, is well established, and he described this leak by the israeli envoy to the united nations as shocking and unacceptable. so a lot of pressure on the israeli authorities. and this news came just hours after authorities in gaza said the israeli military attacked another un school housing displaced palestinians, killing three people. the israeli military said this facility was being used as a base by hamas to plan and carry out attacks. the prime minister of denmark, mette frederiksen, has been assaulted in the capital, copenhagen. her office said she was hit by a man who approached her in a square. she isn't thought to have been seriously injured. police have made an arrest but there is no word yet on a motive. the foreign secretary, lord cameron, has fallen victim to a hoax caller pretending to be the former president of ukraine, petro poroshenko. here is a photo of david cameron and mr poroshenko at a european council summit in brussels in 2015. the foreign office said lord cameron became suspicious after the video call — and an investigation then confirmed it wasn't genuine. it's not known who was behind the hoax. the mother of a man who died after being punched at a music festival has issued a plea for information on the 10th anniversary of his death. 26—year—old robert hart died from his injuries days after he was struck by an unidentified attacker in a row at parklife in manchester. our correspondent graham satchell has more. it's been ten years since robert hart was killed at a music festival in manchester. for his family, every day since has been devastating. so, so heartbreaking. every year when it comes to anniversaries they all bring back all these memories and questions and the heart breaking. the bbc program crimewatch featured a reconstruction of the moment robert got into an argument with another man. he was punched once and died a few days later in hospital. robert! police have offered a £50,000 reward for information that leads to a conviction. there may have been people who have been holding information who may- have known who was responsible, even the person themselves - and they haven't come forward, i so it's that fresh renewed appeal. robert's family remain determined to find the man who took their son's life. it would be justice for robert and that's something i've promised — that hopefully one day we will get justice and find out what happened and why. ten years on, robert hart's family are still desperate for answers. graham satchell, bbc news. there is a rather special event taking place as we speak. in the last few minutes, thousands of bikers have set off on a 300—mile journey from london to barrow—in—furness, to celebrate the life of the tv chef dave myers, of the popular duo the hairy bikers — along with si king, who just a few minutes ago helped cheer off the riders on their trip. large crowds are expected to line the streets to cheer the motorcyclists along on what is being dubbed "dave day". this is the moment they all set off a moment ago. you get an idea of the scale of the event as they all just gathering. we were with jane a little earlier on and there is a fantastic atmosphere. they are all wearing those hawaiian shirts that he loved so much. there is going to beat a wonderful day and we will catch up with jane along with them a little later on. catch up with jane along with them a little later on— little later on. hopefully they will have a decent _ little later on. hopefully they will have a decent weather _ little later on. hopefully they will have a decent weather because i have a decent weather because there's nothing worse than being on a bike in the rain, i think. i tell you what they would not like, though, is what matt is about to show us. is that real? sorry, morning matt! that temperature behind you, is that real? it is morning matt! that temperature behind you, is that real? it is very close to it. _ behind you, is that real? it is very close to it. yes — behind you, is that real? it is very close to it, yes indeed. _ behind you, is that real? it is very close to it, yes indeed. they - behind you, is that real? it is very close to it, yes indeed. they will i close to it, yes indeed. they will be see a lot of sunshine in barrow in furness and they will probably be happy to see that rather than this area here. just shy of 50 celsius here an early heatwave across western parts of the us is building. we see daytime temperatures building across california and nevada hit in around the order of around 40 to 45 degrees. the problem with heatwaves is that by night the temperatures are not dropping much either. and what we have seen in parts of vegas and phoenix. the end of the night will be around 31 or 32 degrees. that is what threatens the biggest impacts on health course across the region. we will show you this just to contrast it with what we have. what would you prefer? exceptional heat at 44 or 45 by day and 30 by night or temperatures a bit below average as we see at the moment. as we flip around the charts with europe blue colour showing when temperature are lower than normal and it is going to get colder as those blues are deep in over the next few days not just for us those blues are deep in over the next few days notjust for us but across much of central and western europe. it's all because of low pressure. it is set to the north of the uk at the moment and here it is. it will work its way eastwards, as it comes down from ice and at the moment and increasingly from the arctic as we go to the next few days. we will see some bands of rain as the bikers will experience that across parts of wales, the midlands, over the next few hours and across southern areas as we start sunny and cloud increases over the next few hours. most places see the sunshine coming out over the next few hours. one word of caution, over the hills this weekend could be wintry across the mountains in scotland and quite windy as well that will add to the chill in those colder moments. temperatures at 12 degrees at best at times. showers similar to recent days but always pleasant when you've got the sunshine out bed always warm with it. clear skies across england and wales, temperature is around three degrees in some rural areas but not as chilly for scotland and northern ireland as the cloud roams through here tomorrow morning. that's accept expected to bring some cloud across scotland. it will be northern ireland and later north—west england which sees at some of the wettest conditions potentially down to freezing in galloway. miller sunshine to another scholar with heavy showers and that wind get colder get colder and colder. after a sunny start in the south, cloud overlaid and best of yoursunny south, cloud overlaid and best of your sunny sunshine south wales and parts of south—west england. if anything, tomorrow temperatures will be down on today's valleys. that's it for now. 9:20am 20 minutes pass time! did you hear what ijust said? 5hdiii 9:20am 20 minutes pass time! did you hear what ijust said?— hear what i 'ust said? shall i start auain, 20 hear what i just said? shall i start again, 20 minutes _ hear what i just said? shall i start again, 20 minutes past _ hear what i just

time. cat owners in england are being urged to get their pets microchips because from next week it will be compulsory. dogs have had to be microchipped since 2016, but now microchips for cats are becoming law, too. from monday, cats in england older than 20 weeks will be required by law to be microchipped by their owners — and registered on a database. owners will face a fine of up to £500 if they are not microchipped when they need to be. if a cat is found after monday's deadline and isn't microchipped, owners will have 21 days to comply with before being presented with a fine. our reporterjanine jansen has more. being microchipped means you can always find your way back home unless you're called one eyed tiger who didn't have a microchip. he spent three months at gable's dogs and cats home in plymouth as a stray. but fortunately, luck was on his side and his owners eventually spotted him on spotlight. apparently when he was out that day, he must have had an epileptic fit and somebody found him the next day semi—conscious and took him to the rspca. that's all we know. and they took him to gable's. the one place we didn't try was gables at the time. and you've come for a microchip today. you can get your cat microchipped at a vet's, a rescue centre or at some pet stores here at red paws in plympton, they're offering to microchip your cat for free. sam is passionate about getting cats microchipped because she knows how devastating it is to lose a pet. i know myself. when my cats went from being indoor cats to outdoor cats the first week, one of them disappeared on me for two days. and that emotion of not knowing where your cat's gone. luckily, somebody in the village where i lived picked them up. they took them to the local vets. they scan the chip and they gave me a telephone call and i was able to get my cat back. back at gables, here is another cat that hasn't got a microchip, which means they can't find its owner. well, from june the 10th, it becomes a legal requirement to have your cat microchipped. and if you don't, you could be facing a fine of £500. don't forget, if you move home, you need to keep your microchip database up to date with any changes so that if you lose your pet, you can find it again. we are joined now by anna ewers clark, who is the veterinary lead for research at the animal chartiy blue cross. good morning to you. good

8:30am. let's get back to our main story now — last night's first bbc election debate involving leading figures from the main seven parties in great britain. there was controversy over some of the claims made in the earlier head—to—head between rishi sunak and sir keir starmer — but what about last night? our correspondent nick eardley has been working alongside the bbc verify team to fact check some of what was said. yes, there were a lot of claims in the debate last night. a lot to keep our team of fact—checkers busy here at bbc verify. let's start with a claim that's dominated the debate this week. angela rayner and the labour party, keir starmer confirmed this earlier this week, they are going to put up your taxes by £2,000, that's a lie. your government have raised taxes to the next level in 17. your government have raised taxes... crosstalk. we've looked at this a lot in the last few days and the figure is misleading because the £2,000 is over four years and the figures the conservatives have used to calculate it are dubious. both the conservatives and labour are promising not to increase income tax, national insurance or vat during the next parliament. obviously there's a lot of politics in this too, but when it comes to the facts, that's where we're at. there was also a big claim that cuts are coming when it comes to public spending, whoever gets the keys to number ten. £18 billion of cuts coming down the line agreed to by angela rayner and penny mordaunt. the tories and the labour both know that they're going to cut public sector investment to come and that's going to have dramatic consequences on the nhs and the devolved nations. let me explain quickly. this figure is based on analysis from the independent institute for fiscal studies. they say that because parties are promising not to put key taxes up or to borrow for everyday spending, and because growth is pretty flat, there'sjust won't be much money to spend. let me show you something else. spending is due to go up a small bit, about 1% in real terms. but because some areas are protected, like health and defence, the unprotected areas likejustice, transport and many other things could face more cuts. that's where the 18 billion figure comes from, from the ifs. let's quickly look at two other claims. firstly, this one. most of those that come in are not directly productive members of the economy. most of those that come in are actually dependents. here's the graphic. you can see that this one isn't accurate. this is the number of visas granted, the amount of them who are dependents is pretty low. it's about a third. finally, there was a claim that defence spending was lower now than it was in the last year of the last labour government in 2009. here are the numbers — that claim from nigel farage is right. as you can see, it was up there in 2010. it's now there a bit down. there is a lot more of this sort of fact—checking on the bbc news website and we will be here for the rest of the campaign going through all the numbers. studio: white stock motorjonathan reynolds, who is the candidate for a steely bridge and hide. thank you forjoining us on breakfast. shall we start with his £2000 figure, which has been examined by various fact checking agencies and bodies. labour has been clear seeing it as a lie, and is expressed surprise that the conservatives keep repeating it. how much will taxes for the average working family go up under a labour government? it is working family go up under a labour government?— government? it is a lie, you're absolutely _ government? it is a lie, you're absolutely right _ government? it is a lie, you're absolutely right to _ government? it is a lie, you're absolutely right to say - government? it is a lie, you're absolutely right to say it - government? it is a lie, you're absolutely right to say it is - absolutely right to say it is misleading. there are revenue raising measures in labour's plans that will put into public services, but i wouldn't describe them as taxes on households. they are things like, for instance, we will change the tax treatment of income for a private x with these, we will not have —— we will have changes in the non—dom regime, we'll have changes to private education and put that into state education, and that's because anything we put forward in labour manifesto will be fully costed. that is not the same as increases on households, and i think you have dealt with that admirably this morning when you pointed out that information from the conservative party is a lie and that is misleading. i’m conservative party is a lie and that is misleading-— is misleading. i'm still not clear thou~h. is misleading. i'm still not clear though- can _ is

not clear i though. can you promise or assure working families that taxes will not rise for them under a labour government? if rise for them under a labour government?— rise for them under a labour covernment? ., ., . government? if we were to form a government _ government? if we were to form a government after _ government? if we were to form a government after the _ government? if we were to form a government after the general- government after the general election on the 4th ofjuly, we would inherits the government spending plans. in those, there are tax rises. the personal allowance, but are said to be frozen for several years. we are ambitious about how we think we can grow the economy to give people better times ahead, but i'd be candid and say those of the plans that we would inherits. that is not the same as the false claims the conservative party have put forward, and i would just say on the wider point around tax and spending plans, if the economy were to be as stagnant and flat as it has been the last few years, of course there would be tough times ahead. we have got, in the labour party, a set of really ambitious plans in our manifesto, practical things that make the economy grew faster and perform better. we are launching our small business plan, tackling everything from late payments will businesses to high business rates work, to how government should offer a procurement held that smes have a bigger share of that. let's not... the birth performance of the conservative party cannot be changed, because it will under a labour party. in changed, because it

absolutely right to say they will not be additional taxes under a labour government when it comes to things like income tax or vat. we've been very clear on that. we have set where we would raise revenue, and we think that is because some services need an immediate injection of resources. we have been clear on that. we have said what plans are, how we would raise the money to do that, and we acknowledge that taxes on working people are at a high level. they are at a historically high level, and it's not, frankly, because public services are doing well. it is because the economy has grown, it is done really pearly over the last few years. we want to address that, but there will be additional taxes on households and a labour government. i additional taxes on households and a labour

of the labour party's biggest backers as a union. it is an important voice to be heard and acknowledged. when unite, when it is reported that they don't endorse the manifesto plans, when the set doesn't go far enough in protecting workers' rights and jobs and the oil and gas industry, surely thatis and the oil and gas industry, surely that is a voice you will listen to? and we do and we did in that meeting. our package for workers' rights is a comprehensive package, but we're notjust getting the economic growth we want to see, we are getting it working in every part of the uk. i understand what unite have said and their concerns about the future of the north sea and their policy not to have additional and gas licences —— our policy not to have additional oil and gas licences, but we have to acknowledge that it licences, but we have to acknowledge thatitis licences, but we have to acknowledge that it is in decline, we have to get the transition right. there are a set of proposals in the manifesto that will do that. we don't want to make the mistakes of the conservative governments when we have had this transitions. the manifesto as a whole set of pro—worker, proposals, which do m prove the claimant so we get better security in the workplace. it is that of genuine, costed proposals that of genuine, costed proposals that will give people real change in the uk, and that is what they want. in 2019, the unite union gave £3 million towards labour's election campaign. have you had any assurances that figure will be much the same right? i assurances that

that. we don't set policy based on what donations or income are from any particular quarter. we do a set of proposals, as we have done, but her about answering and meeting the challenges the uk faces. in this case, in my agenda and the things are quite rightly asking me about, it will improve the business climate, it will improve things for small and large businesses, it will give workers more security and get the transition right. that is why we are very proud of what we'll put forward. it is real change the country, but not change that can be described or accounted for as to how we do it. real road map to the national renewal that the uk needs. was all leading figures from the seven parties in the bbc election date. there is also an invitation to all the party leaders from the bbc for an interview with nick robinson. all parties have agreed a date except keir starmer. why has keir starmer not agreed a date? we except keir starmer. why has keir starmer not agreed a date? we are in

and another one coming at the end of the week. i don't know if there are any shortages in that are of any further details are being arranged, but we are confident and pleased with how those debates have gone so far with keir against the prime minister, and then as angela, a deputy leader, talking about the real change the country needs... does not think it is important to be scrutinised by a

website. the time is 8:42am, mike isjoining us on the sofa. there is a time in sport for a whole stadium can pause to mark someone's passing, and that will happen in many places today. absolutely. i can't remember a day like this in both... both colours uniting to pay respect to one man, rob burrow, whose influence has gone far beyond the field and far beyond sport, because of all he has done to raise awareness and funds for motor neurone disease, which in the end took his own life last sunday when he passed away from the disease. he was diagnosed in 2019. there were so many ways that various fans and teams will pay their respects today, before the cops are then fought for by the various teams at twickenham and wembley. overnight, wembley stadium has been transformed from england's euro send off for what will be such a poignant and special day in rugby league. the challenge cup final is always a momentous occasion but today, it will carry much more emotion than normal as the sport pays its respects to rob burrow — the rugby league great who passed away last sunday, from motor neurone disease, aged just 41. adam wild looks ahead to today's final. today, rugby league remembers. cup finals weekend, the game coming together, the sport's grandest occasion, and an opportunity to honour one of its greats. burrow, off he goes! it's the little man - wearing the number7! the men's final will kick off 3:07 in tribute to one of the sport's great number sevens. fittingly, rob burrow played in seven cup finals, twice a wembley winner. applause on the seventh minute of all games today. leading out his side later, warrington head coach sam burgess, a former england and great britain team mate of burrow. this a moment of special personal significance. we lost our father in 2007 to motor neurone disease when, you know, back then it was in its infancy and we didn't know too much about the disease. and, you know, but thanks to the likes of doddie weir and rob, and their courage to tackle the disease head on and create this much—needed awareness, we're all starting to know a bit more about it. so if anything, i think it's a great time to come together as a game. let's get as many people in wembley as possible and celebrate the life of a true role model, legend, and courageous man in rob burrow. warrington fans this week turning out in huge numbers to wave off their heroes as they make the journey south. whilstjust a few miles down the road in wigan, they were doing exactly the same. fans of all clubs this morning being invited to pay their own personal tributes to rob burrow, tributes that are arriving from all over the world. g'day folks. how you doing? russell crowe here, coming to you live from sydney harbour. if you love rugby league and you loved what that little champion did in every singlejersey that he ever played in, go to wembley, go to wembley and celebrate his life and his career and celebrate the rugby league community. tributes, then, very much the backdrop to what promises to be a men's final fitting of the occasion. warrington taking on wigan, looking to do what they did two years ago. so many people from our club will be travelling down to london. i'll watch it on tv and we want to do them proud and our players sacrifice a lot and it's great when they get the opportunity to have a big day out. for the second year in a row, the women's final will also be held at wembley on the same day as the men's. and on a day to honour a leeds legend, it perhaps feels right there's a leeds side involved. the women's team taking on reigning champions st helens again. i think the women's sport's got i quite a lot of similarities in terms of rob was told that he wouldn't do things and he did things that he - shouldn't probably do. and in a bit of a different way, i you know, women's rugby hasn't always been traditionally the one |that had the most opportunities.i so there's been a time where, - you know, we've had to push past the boundaries to get those opportunities and to - play at the top level. so, you know, some similarities in that. i but yeah, he would have been offering words of support - and you know, he wasjust a really, really good man. | and that's why i think it's hit everyone really hard. - i think it's going to be really nice that we have this big occasion where all eyes are on rugby league and we can hopefully do rob justice in how we perform on the pitch and in the tributes that we make to him and his family. so, a wembley occasion to remember a day to be inspired. adam wild, bbc news. and don't forget, you can watch the special documentary made by my bbc breakfast colleagues on iplayer, there is only one rob burrow. don't miss it. from league to union — and north london to west london — where another huge rugby final awaits, at twickenham, and where they will also hold a round of applause for rob burrow, in the seventh minute of the premiership final. northampton saints or bath will be crowned premiership champions. saints haven't won the title for a decade, while bath haven't lifted the famous trophy since 1996. the season has been so tight. the whole year. seven teams could have made the play—offs with that last weekend of games, so i don't know if it is the right to mac, but what i do know is that every team has worked unbelievably hard to get to this position, and it will be the best team who wins on saturday. throughout my career, i was want to play in _ throughout my career, i was want to play in their— throughout my career, i was want to play in their prime final at twickenham, especially when it is sold out — twickenham, especially when it is sold out. they are the games you always _ sold out. they are the games you always watch every year. when i first

myself to try and get — them, and now i have a chance myself to try and get a trophy. i wait. i can't wait. onto football, and the final warm up matches for england and scotland, ahead of next week's euros, which didn't go exactly to plan, especially for england, who head to germany with boos from wembley ringing in their ears. they lost 1—0 against iceland at wembley — the team ranked 72nd in the world, who led from the 12th minute, so plenty of time for england to hit back and show their potential. but they were short of ideas, and registered just one shot on target. england's first match at the euros is a week tomorrow, when they'll face serbia. to have the funds with you here obviously make some big difference, but you have to give them enough goalmouth action, you have to play well enough, press and win the ball with intensity to keep them with you through the game. we didn't do that, so we have to accept the reaction as it was. it wasn't as bad for scotland but there was still a sense of disappointment, after their final friendly. they were seemingly in control against finland — leading 2—0 with just over half an hour to go — but then conceded two goals in the final 20 minutes to draw 2—2 at hampden. scotland kick the tournament off against hosts germany next friday. with the paris olympics just around the corner, do team gb have an injury concern, over one of their best medal hopes? world champion katerina johnson thompson has withdrawn from the heptathlon, at the european athletics championships, after the opening day. her coach has played down the issue — saying she just has a "small niggle" and withdrew to protect her training schedule. the championships continue today in rome. elsewhere, spare a thought for spain's, laura garcia caro, who'd begun celebrating her third place finish, in the women's 20 kilometre race walk — only to be pipped on the line, by ukraine's, lyudmila 0lyanovska. from joy to dispair in a split second... you can see herface you can see her face when she realises the celebrations of being cut short. a few more stepsthat is painful to watch.— painful to watch. thank you very much! we were talking about the challenge cup matches today at wembley. hopefully there will be some decent weather. matt has gone to wembley! hat will be some decent weather. matt has gone to wembley!— will be some decent weather. matt has gone to wembley! not quite! it is lovely and _ has gone to wembley! not quite! it is lovely and wembley, _ has gone to wembley! not quite! it is lovely and wembley, but - has gone to wembley! not quite! it is lovely and wembley, but by - has gone to wembley! not quite! it is lovely and wembley, but by the i is lovely and wembley, but by the time the women take to the pitch, i will be a lot cloudier. there could be a bit of patchy rain as we had to this morning into early afternoon. but the sun will be back out later, especially by the time we've hit that third match this evening. good, long, sunny spells, but a bit of a cool wind. it sums up the weather for many of us today. a bit of cloud around, especially this morning for many, with some showers, but there will be some sunshine for all too. we are bringing the air in from iceland, that is why it is chilly in the sunshine. you have some sunshine, especially this morning, and some pretty high grass pollen levels. if you suffer from hay fever, not a great start to the day here. that is how the pollen looks. we have some showers around at the moment in north and west scotland, they will develop a bit more, but those zones of rain and drizzle, north of england and north wales in particular, down towards the south—west, this is a thicker cloud. notice it becomes confined to southern counties very part of the afternoon. sunshine develops elsewhere. fewer showers in northern ireland compared to the morning, especially in the north and east. but out of the sunshine, it will still feel chilly, as it has done three recent days. temperatures a degree or so down yesterday thanks to that went. as you go to the evening, a lovely evening for much of england and wales, and it will be a core co—pay tear —— cold night here. the breeze giving temperatures up, but we could get down to around three celsius in some rural parts of southern england as we start tomorrow morning. here's a chart for sunday. low pressure on the move. the ridge of high pressurejust across the south, but this is the feature that will cause us if issues tomorrow. it will take away a lot of the sunshine, especially that england and wales starts with. south—west england will hold on to sunny spells throughout the day, and there will still be some throughout these. sunshine in northern scotland, whether strengthening wind with a few showers around. northern ireland, outbreaks were the day, and later in north—west england and north wales, a wet end to sunday and a distinctly cool one as well. is that weather system pushes its way down towards the south—east into monday, it will develop further. lingering across eastern areas for parts of the morning, then opens the door to northerly winds stop cold winds, sunshine and showers again. some of those across central and eastern areas could be heavy and thundery, and look at that. temperatures sam, 13 or 14 degrees across the east of england. it should be around 19 or 20. thanks, matt. last night, taylor swift fans got what they have been waiting for. and she didn'tjust bring the joy. edinburgh council think megastar�*s presence in the city could give the local economy
