this is bbc news with the latest headlines. the prime minister vows to fight any leadership challenge, as mps await a crucial report into downing street parties. as soon as those facts are established, he will be right back in parliament, and subject himself to scrutiny, and i think that is the right way forward. from today, facemasks are not compulsory in classrooms, moves away from plan b coronavirus restrictions. it means england in the words of the health secretary is the most open country in europe. but is it too soon to take such a step? get in touch with me on twitter @annitabbc or by using the hashtag, bbc your questions.
