Good morning. Once again, big ben strikes again for england. Stokes is unbeaten going into day two, as england look to make a big score in the third test against south africa. And i am also in glasgow this morning looking at how the climate in scotland has changed but also looking at the forecast. Showers around today but the weekend looks drier and colder. Details coming up here on breakfast. Its friday 17th january. Our top story social Media Companies, such as facebook, twitter and instagram, should be forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. Proposals by the Royal College of psychiatrists could see Companies Face a new tax, which would Fund Research into a how a childs Online Activity affects their Mental Health. Angus crawford reports. She had so much to offer. Molly russells death. Now its gone. Sparked a national outcry. These are companies that count their profits in the billions, and they turn around and say to us that they cant protect our children . Questions about young people and Mental Health. You can compel them to do what needs to be done . Yes, absolutely. Focusing public anger on the tech giants, and demands for greater regulation. Announced in the queens speech, the governments plans for a new, independent regulator, and a statutory duty of care. My ministers will develop legislation to improve internet safety for all. But the Royal College of psychiatrists wants tougher action. Social Media Companies are very wealthy. Theyve got a huge amount of knowledge. They can create complex algorithms which hook young people into their platforms. Why cant they be using the same amount of energy, knowledge and funding to try and harness the positive benefits, and help try and protect children . Tech giants should be forced to share data with university researchers, and be taxed on their global turnover. New apps should be designed to be age appropriate. Radical solutions, which wont be popular with an industry making billions from the children who use its products. A little later well be speaking to the father of Molly Russell, who believes social media was partly responsible for his daughters death two years ago. Thats coming up atjust after 7. 30. Rebecca long bailey and Emily Thornberry will set out their visions for the labour party, as they launch their rival bids to succeed Jeremy Corbyn as leader. Labour says around 14,700 people have applied to register as temporary supporters so they can vote in the leadership contest. Were joined now from westminster by our Political Correspondent iain watson. Two people presenting themselves formally today. Tell us more. A formally today. Tell us more. A formal launch for two candidates. Low key formal launch for two candidates. Low key campaigns thus far from them, will one of them, nonetheless asa them, will one of them, nonetheless as a potential favourite them, will one of them, nonetheless as a potentialfavourite in them, will one of them, nonetheless as a potential favourite in this competition, rebecca long bailey, the shadow business secretary, because she has the backing of momentum which is close toJeremy Corbyns leadership. She will be trying to keep people on the left of the party on side. She launches tonight in manchester, making it clear she is a candidate away from the metropolitan elite, if you like, and her pitch will be that she wants to give power back to local communities, devolve power from westminster to regions and local areas. She also is says she is against the Gentlemans Club of politics which may be a guide to her nearest rival so far in the contest. She says the British State needs a seismic shock. Emily formby will concentrate on personal attributes. Proving she is not simply a candidate from islington she also says she has the experience and resilience required to take on Boris Johnson. She did it quite well, she would say, as shadow foreign secretary and effectively saying that some of the newer and younger candidates are perhaps less able to ta ke candidates are perhaps less able to take the fight to the conservatives. Some people may be confused as to who it is that gets to vote in this contest now. Can you take us through the basics . Those allowed to vote of fully paid up party members, around 500,000 of them. Membership has been rising since the contest was announced. People can also vote via trade union membership. And others can trade union membership. And others ca n vote trade union membership. And others can vote without being fully paid up members of the labour party. The numbers are interesting because it was the strategy ofJess Phillips, the backbencher labour mp to try and bring people into the labour party in order to change it, people who may have left because ofJeremy Corbyns leadership those who did not like him, those not fully involved in politics before and that would have given her her best chance to see off a left wing candidate. Fewer than 15,000 people have bothered to register in this way and thatis bothered to register in this way and that is far less than those who did when the scheme was introduced in 2015, 2016, when over 100,000 people did. So perhaps that does not augur well for those who wish to move the party away from the Jeremy Corbyn era. A british teenager who was found guilty of lying about being raped by a group of men in cyprus, has launched an appeal against her conviction. The 19 year old returned to the uk last week, after being given a suspended jail sentence for public mischief. She insists that she retracted her original statement after being put under pressure by police. Two hospitals which were being built by the engineering giant, carillion when it collapsed, will be delayed for several years, according to the National Audit office. The Royal Liverpool and the midland metropolitan wont be completed until 2022 and each will cost around 300 Million Pounds more than originally thought. The government says it is giving both trusts extra funding to minimise further delays. Two pedestrians had a lucky escape when a building collapsed in the us capital, washington dc, yesterday. This security footage captures the moment these people narrowly avoid being crushed by falling debris, as the walls of a nearby building tumbled onto the street. Incredibly, a fire engine drives by, just seconds later and stops at the scene to investigate. Missed them by seconds just a coincidence that the fire truck came by at that time. Fancy that. A sovereign, struck when edward vi was king, has become the first british coin to sell for a Million Pounds. Its just 22 millimetres in diameter and only six coins are thought to have been made in a trial set, before edward abdicated in december 1936. The rare item was bought by a private collector, who described the sale as a once in a lifetime opportunity. Lets have a look now at the sport for today. Ben stokes led the england fightback in the third test against south africa. He goes into day two in Port Elizabeth 38 not out, with england looking to build a big total with the series level at 1 1, this match may be the decider. Rugby Union Champions saracens could be facing relegation from the premiership at the end of the season, if they are found to have breached the salary cap again. Theres another set back for andy murray hes still being troubled by a pelvic injury and hes delayed his return to the middle of next month at the earliest. And ali carter is the latest player to cause a surprise at the masters snooker, as ali carter knocks out the two time championjohn higgins at alexandra palace. It has been full of surprises, this yea rs it has been full of surprises, this years masters. It will be very interesting. Thank you, holly. It has been an interesting morning today. We have a number of people in glasgow where there is a really big conference on Climate Change. Matt, you are there at the sentence matt is at the Science Centre in glasgow, where were taking a closer look at the impact of Climate Change. Behind me is the sec complex that includes the venues where the big us Climate Change conference that happens every year is taking place. Largely seen as a failure because some of the big players in the world failed to come up plans that would help achieve the agreement, the Paris Agreement which was the aim to keep temperature rise to just 1. 5 degrees above preindustrial levels. But they hope to now see a bit more in the way of achievement behind me at this conference taking place in november later this year. As delegates arrive in november they will be wanting things like this. A dry start to the day and not bad. If we look at the forecast there are still some showers around today but some optimism to begin with because this weekend it looks dry and sunny and a little chilly with temperatures dropping back to where we should be for the time of year but it will also be a little bit colder. We will see the return of frost quite rightly. The rest of the rain from yesterday has cleared towards the east of us but you can see a few weather fronts on the chart, batches of showers working across the country today. This morning we start with england and wales are plenty of showers around. One area will clear away this morning but others will push eastwards. A band of showers working southward through the day. Wintry on the high ground at sunshine in between and more of us will see dry and sunny weather in the second half of the day. The temperature is a little but where it should be for this time of year but cooler than yesterday. The wind is lighter through today, breezy at the top and tail of the country and that will be the case as we go through tonight. Showers feeding for all that much of northern and western parts of scotla nd northern and western parts of scotland and you will notice that temperatures into the morning have a greater chance of frost around as we go into the start of the weekend. As isaid, the go into the start of the weekend. As i said, the weekend has increasing amounts of sunshine. Shells across northern and western parts of scotla nd northern and western parts of scotland in particular with a couple into Northern Ireland in Northern England. What the showers towards the aisle facility that most will be dry and sunny stop whited to single figure is closer to where we should be for this time of year to watch saturday night through to sunday double appears, indicating colder nights to take this into sunday. A widespread frost with temperatures below freezing, away from most towns and city centres. A few mist and fog patches around a glorious crisp winter day on sunday if you need to get out of make the most of it. Clouds over a bit in the north of scotla nd clouds over a bit in the north of scotland later with showers towards shetland before the days three. It isa shetland before the days three. It is a case conditions improving throughout. As we go through the second half of sunday we see temperatures down in single figures but, after all, we have had a mild week so far this week so a Welcome Change to more wintry conditions here not just change to more wintry conditions here notjust in scotland but right across the uk. That is how it looks. More from glasgow through the morning and we will have a look at how the climate here has changed and neal will look at how glasgow is aiming to become Carbon Neutral by 2030. Lets take a look at todays papers. The daily mirror is among the front pages to show a picture of prince harry. The paper claims he and meghan have clashed with royal officials over their ability to strike big money deals as part of their move to step back as full time royals and become financially independent. The daily mail reports the duke and duchess of sussexs staff at Frogmore Cottage are being moved to other duties within the queens household, a revelation it claims is the surest sign yet the couple will settle in ca nada. I gateau get away is the headline of the lead on the front page of the sun, which focuses on Sandi Toksvigs departure as co host of channel 4s Great British bake off. I have got to get away. If you say it properly it doesnt quite work, does it . And online, the Huffington Post shows a clip of our breakfast interview with Boris Johnson and asks if the money he wants to be spent on making big ben chime for brexit could be better spend elsewhere. We will be talking a little bit more about that at around 20 minutes to nine. Holly, you have looked through the back pages anti sport, what have you got for us and away from the cricket on the back pages they want to draw your attention to this story in the telegraph. This is the Crystal Palace womens goalkeeper, she said she was the victim of sexual abuse on sunday, during the championship game at coventry united. She said there were eight men standing directly behind the goal is making fun of her body shape, singing songs at her. She we nt shape, singing songs at her. She went through what she was supposed to do, she spoke to the referee, and she says they have not followed protocol on this issue and she says next time it happens, and for all women players, they should simply walk off the pitstop but how did it u nfold walk off the pitstop but how did it unfold in the pitch . She just had to carry on. She highlighted it at halftime and after the match she said it continued. Was the group of men spoken to . Not yet. There is protocol, the concerns are to be brought to the referee, which she did, obviously, so she said they would take care of it. They put security guards out, but she did not see any security guards go out. Despite being told that. A shocking story. A lot of the papers talking about the Australian Open. The draw has taken place. It starts monday. It seems that coco gauff, once again, will be playing venus williams. We remember this from wimbledon, the opening round, i suppose her fame grew at an exponential rate after the victory. Can we see that once again in melbourne . It is exciting. This story is about cows. I was like stories about cows. Why did you look at me when you said that . |j stories about cows. Why did you look at me when you said that . I was engaging you in the story. Scientists have been looking at what you can tell from the moo of a cow. Cows can you can tell from the moo of a cow. Cows can express you can tell from the moo of a cow. Cows can express different emotions through their moos. Scientists say it is surprising that they can now translate them. They can determine what a difference moo is saying, whether they are happy or sad stop they say moos are likely to encode information about the centre, including their identity, emotional state, how the cow is feeling. M you kick a cow and it moos you would know it is in pain, so. Why would you kick a cow . I am saying if a cow is in pain you would hear that. |j you kick a cow . I am saying if a cow is in pain you would hear that. I am a little alarmed that your first thought is if a kick it cow what will it do . The cow research is ongoing. Why would like to know what a happy cow sounds like. As a former sheep judge. A happy cow sounds like. As a former sheepjudge. And with a happy cow sounds like. As a former sheep judge. And with your a happy cow sounds like. As a former sheepjudge. And with yourfarming background. They also did a bit of beef judging. Background. They also did a bit of beefjudging. As in the stakes . That isa beefjudging. As in the stakes . That is a distressed cow. Can we hear it for a second . Mooing. Someone kicked that cow. You can tell it is friday. The beefjudging, you judged the stea ks the beefjudging, you judged the steaks or the cow . We are not judging the beef part of it. They are beef cattle. And, again, whether they are happy, attractive. I are beef cattle. And, again, whether they are happy, attractive. Lam not going to go down this road again. I am starting to think they should have chosen another story. Anyway. We will see you again. We will have all the weather coming up a little later on. We all heard sir David Attenboroughs comments on breakfast yesterday. The moment of crisis has come. But how can we really tackle Climate Change and cut emissions . Glasgow thinks it might have the answer. Ninas there for us. You were on a mission to make a machine work. I am i empowering Renewable Energy myself, powered purely by porridge. It is great. You press a button and you see how much energy you have stored. Across the bbc this week we are looking at Climate Change and what can be done to tackle this crisis. In the year 2020, which Scientists Say is crucial if we are to halt the warming of the planet and the potentially catastrophic impact of that. We have chosen glasgow because later in the year while leaders will gather here and talk about revised plans for stopping Climate Change. There is another reason we are in this fine city, though, and that is because the uk has pledged to reach net zero emissions by 2050, so all greenhouse gases, notjust carbon by then, scotland has gone one better. They say because this is a Perfect Place for planting more trees, developing Renewable Energy, they can do it by 2045. Glasgow and edinburgh, meanwhile, are even more ambitious. They say they can reach net zero emissions by 2030. It will not be easy. In 2017 alone in glasgow the co2 emissions were 2600 kilotonnes, thats about 4000 tons per person. The equates to around 32,000 short carjourneys. It wont be easy. What is the plan . Electric. Thousands of new charging stations at cinemas and supermarkets, electric and Hydrogen Powered public vehicle transport. And more trees across the city to capture carbon. They are also asking businesses to do their bit and play their parts. Here is a brewery that is doing just that. I am the founder. We make beer, some using surplus bread rolls. We started when we met the ba ke rs rolls. We started when we met the bakers and they turned around to us and said we read that you originally, that bee was made from bread. We have loads of spare bread at the end of every day and we think we could give it to you and you can make be aware that. We have actually woii make be aware that. We have actually won an award for the beer we make out of bread rolls and it doesnt cost as much. We get the bread rolls we re cost as much. We get the bread rolls were nothing. And it saves them going to landfill. So it is a win win. We are looking at better ways to use al spence grain, better ways to use al spence grain, better ways to use al spence grain, better ways to use the surplus yeast we have at the end of fermentation, and one particular thing is we would like to be able to capture the Carbon Dioxide that is given off during fermentation and use that to dispense the beer instead of having to find Carbon Dioxide in cylinders. We are quite happy to share the recipe for our redbee, along with anything else we find out with other breweries, because it is important that everybody takes a part in reducing waste and reducing carbon output. Important that everybody plays a part. Here are representatives from two businesses doing that. Hazel is from Scottish Power and greg runs a furniture company. You are the leading Wind Energy Company in the world. Derma fossil fuels at Scottish Power. What else are you doing to reach this incredibly ambitious target . There is so much more we can do. We have a huge wind farm just outside of glasgow is the same size as glasgow, and we are looking at including a large battery the size of a supermarket to provide more stability to the electricity grid, thatis stability to the electricity grid, that is really important. There are a numberof wind that is really important. There are a number of wind farms around the uk where we think it is possible to add solar panels to the sides to make the most of those great connections we already have and maximise the energy we get out of the windfarms are. Arguably you should be doing that and possibly more, you are in a unique position that you generate and transmit energy, your profits went up last year. Could you be reinvesting more of that money . We would love to do more. We would love to build more onshore wind, offshore wind, but we have to talk to the government and policy makers about the mechanisms in place to do that. It isa the mechanisms in place to do that. It is a difficult environment, but we want to do more and we will be doing more. So the infrastructure to doing more. So the infrastructure to do more is not necessarily in place. Greg, talk to me about your company, 20 or so employees, much smaller, he furniture for hotels and the idea is they send it back to get fixed rather than bidding it. How did you come up with that idea . It is a simple lady with a huge impact. We have been thinking about it for two years and how we can go about making the furniture so it is easy to fix. Asa the furniture so it is easy to fix. As a nation we consume too much so if we can use less or meetings last longer it is for the best, was kind of goes against what businesses about is obviously sell more. So it is really looking at how we can make things last longer but also keep our business running. It is a shift in the mindset, but i can only assume that your profits wanted 270 to 270 million last year. It is a company of your size to take a chance on spending on something renewable. We received a government grant which has helped, but as a company that is smaller we can make quicker decisions, so if we see something we can change our productivity and increase productivity, we can do it quicker so we are more agile in that sense, which obviously helps to offset some of the harder choices we have got to make. Your employees have got to make. Your employees have taken to it well mostly we get a mixed reaction, but overall people are upfora a mixed reaction, but overall people are up for a change, which is great. Does the need to be more coming from central government, local councils . Is it enough that it is peaceful piecemeal, doesnt feel enough . think it is important more local get more input into how they want their future electric structure what they wa nt future electric structure what they want for their city or community. No city is the same. No one size fits all. That is another thing we are working to talk to the regulators about to give the opportunity to talk to people at a local level to see whats important for each community. You received a grant, grey, is the guides out there for Small Companies to do their bit and play their paths and guide employees was blue it is hard to come by and find but once you find what you are looking for that is support that, it was part of age uk that gave us the grantand was part of age uk that gave us the grant and they guide you into the application process. It is a lot of paperwork. But it is definitely there. And for Small Businesses it is the finding the time and the resources was topical question for both of you. 2032, ambitious was blue we have got to be ambitious. Ten yea rs blue we have got to be ambitious. Ten years ago no one would have said we we re ten years ago no one would have said we were be at where we are now. think it should be sooner, personally. Dont know if it can be. It is there. We will be talking to children later who seem to be more crossett tha n children later who seem to be more crossett than any of us. There are of small things we can all do, but insulated your home, set your thermostat no higher than 90 degrees, make sure you have a low meat diet, that sort of thing, but the question everybody is saying is is it too little too late . Back to you. It is a question lots of us have been asking. Looking forward to seeing you and your guest later on. Still to come on breakfast i iam i am showing you, when i it off more than i can hsu. Chew. Well speak to the care worker who recorded this heart warming duet of my way with 83 year old margaret, who has dementia, and hear their reaction to its success in the download charts. And we will be hearing a little more and chatting to jamie about the recording experience a little bit later on. That is the story that will one peoples us this morning. A good song. Time now to get the news, travel, and weather where you are. Hello. Im asad ahmad. Families of those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire have met the Prime Minister to raise concerns about a potential conflict of interest involving a Senior Member of the inquiry. Benita mehra willjoin the inquiry for its second phase later this month. But a newspaper has revealed that she used to run a charity with links to the American Firm behind the cladding on the tower. 72 people died in 2017, with the cladding widely blamed for the fire spreading. We have to look into it and see what the facts are and if there is, you know, a conflict of interest, im afraid she has to just go, she know, a conflict of interest, im afraid she has tojust go, she has to be replaced with somebody else will stop and somebody else. Mayor of london sadiq khan has warned against what he called a fashionable anti london agenda. At the annual Mansion House dinner in the city last night, the mayor warned about neglecting london as the government moves to level up spending elsewhere in the country. In recent years we have already seen london excluded from several government funding pots and this, i fear, is only set to get worse. Damage in london damages growth and jobs everywhere else in the country too. The bbc has learned that a coin, struck when edward v was king, has become the first british coin to sell for a million. Its one of a trial set of six which never went into mass production owing to the duke of windsors abdication in 1936. He actually wanted a set himself, but was refused by george vi the queens father. The coins face value is £1. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Metropolitan line has severe delays southbound from harrow on the hill due to a signal failure this morning.

Watch out for some further afternoon showers and andy colder air filters through from the west.

Social media giants could face a new tax, which would Fund Research into how a childs Online Activity affects their Mental Health. Proposals by the Royal College of psychiatrists, could see companies such as facebook, twitter and instagram, forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. The government says it will create an independent regulator for Online Safety from april. Social Media Companies are very wealthy and they have a huge wealth of knowledge. They can create complex algorithms that can convince young people to use their platforms. Why cant we use that same things to help harness and protect young children. A british teenager who was found guilty of lying about being raped by a group of men in cyprus, has launched an appeal against her conviction. The 19 year old returned to the uk last week, after being given a suspended jail sentence for public mischief. She insists that she retracted her original statement after being put under pressure by police. The us military has revealed that 11 us soldiers were injured by an iraqi by an airstrike us soldiers were injured by an iraqi by an air strike nine days ago. Some servicemembers were treated for concussion after the attack. The us previously denied that anybody had been heard. The attack on the airbase was in retaliation for the assassination of the top are running in military commander. Two hospitals which were being built by the engineering giant, carillion when it collapsed, will be delayed, according to the National Audit office. The Royal Liverpool and the midland metropolitan wont be completed until 2022 and each will cost around 300 Million Pounds more than originally thought. The government says it is giving both trusts extra funding to minimise further delays. Nearly £150,000 has been donated to ensure that the big ben bell is in working order. But the money will not be accepted. Mps who support the appeal says the mp should Prime Minister should not back out now. And how is this for a commute with a difference . Vanderbilt hall in Grand Central station is currently home to a full size squash court. This competition has ta ken a full size squash court. This competition has taken part place within the station for the last five yea rs. Within the station for the last five years. I within the station for the last five yea rs. I love within the station for the last five years. I love squash. It is brilliant. And that environment in that place, presumably, will draw many more people to the game. It does look spectacular. You know how you walk through some train stations and there is usually a talented person playing piano . Take set up level, doesnt it . Imagine being on your way to work, coffee, just watching a bit of squash. And then two hours goes by. Whats, sorry. But that event has been going on there for five years now. It would be good, quite worth the trip did again we have some Great British representation there as well. But lets had now to the sunshine. England is looking uncomfortable again on day one of the third test. But who steps up . This man, ben stokes who is having quite a good week. Icc player of the year, the players player of the year and spur Sports Personality of the year and here he goes again. Coming save the day. It was a slow day on day one of the third test and just when things looked a little bit shaky, ben stokes steps up to the crease and he is still there. They resume on 224 four. Englands batsmen today can be inspired by what happened yesterday morning. England batting with a short. They reached lunch without losing a wicket, calling on sibley. The signs were encouraging. But south africa set a trap specifically a fielder, right there. Sibley court for 36 and zach crawley fell for it as well, gone for 44. And it was one of the days highlights. Tranquillity at the cricket was matched by Port Elizabeth itself. Slow going. Anytime a fast bowler does that it is a triumph. But he had just dismissed englands captain so drain every drop of celebration. Every drop. The final session for the best of ollie pope. And ben stokes will do this at the crease. A full morning of these two batting would serve englands interest perfectly. We could see some of englands top rugby stars playing in the Second Division next season, with the champions saracens under threat of relegation, if theyre found to have breached the salary cap again. England captain owen farrell is among the large saracens contingent in the national squad. The london club has already been fined and docked 35 points for going over the 7 Million Pounds allowed, for the past three seasons but its believed they are struggling to get salaries under that limit again. Heres our rugby Union Correspondent chris jones. The saracens chief executive steve has come out and said that they may need to trim the squad but as at the time of speaking, no players have yet left the club and it has been seven months of this salary season so far. So there are loads and loads of questions. What is clear is that there is a determination from the rest of the league do not allow saracens remain in the premiership if they are continuing to breach the salary and, in the progress, relegate the side who is playing by the rules. Andy murrays comeback from injury has been further delayed and hes not putting a timeline on his return. The pelvic injury that forced him out of the Australian Open is taking longer to heal than he first thought. He said he wouldnt step back on court until the time was right. There was controversy at the masters snooker, as ali carter scrapped his way to a surprise win over the two time Champion John higgins at ally pally last night. The referee called a foul shot when carter missed the yellow. He insisted hed hit it, though, and she overturned her decision but the replay showed there was no contact. Theres no suggestion of dishonesty on carters part. He went on to win 6 3 to reach the semi finals, where hell play shaun murphy. Fine margins. Very fine margins. Never doubt yourself, however. Have you ever done that . Had an eagle put in yourearwhen you ever done that . Had an eagle put in your ear when somebody doubted what you did . The time is now 638. Will big ben bong for brexit . Thats the question thousands of people are still left wondering, after almost 150 thousand pounds has been raised to hear the clock chime, when britain leaves the eu at the end of the month. Big ben is currently silent for restoration work and its estimated it will cost 500,000 pounds to bring the bongs back for a one off occasion. The commons authorities says the total cost is unjustified. Lets remind ourselves of how this story unfolded. We are working up a plan so we can bong big bang. But will it all have the plans gone wrong . That is the question. It chimed on new years eve. And number 10 are focused on bringing in englands year outside of the eu with londons famous bell. At the estimated cost is an issue. There has been supporting the house of commons. Will he make representations to the house of Commons Commission whose decision this is, that big ben should long for brexit. But now. The appeal for brexit. But now. The appeal for a big bang for brexit. But now. The appeal fora big bang bong for brexit. But now. The appeal for a big bang bong has gone down. The commission, who look after the parliamentary estate, have said that the chimes adjust to lollo costly and they justify the the chimes adjust to lollo costly and theyjustify the public raising the funds. Experts say the cost is high because the timing mechanism would need to be restored, a temporary floor installed and there would be a delay to the restoration process. But advocates of the bongs will not give up that easily. If their plans are bungled they will just play them through loudspeakers instead. So now you know. Historian dr anna keay has been following the restoration of big ben since it fell silent in 2017, and joins us now from westminster. Good morning to you. I suppose what is interesting about this is how this subject gets people riled up. It gets people fired up and brings about a debate because of how iconic big ben is. Why is it so . That is a good question. The clocktower was not even part of the original design for the palace of westminster. I think probably largely to do with the fact that it is such a striking structure when it soars up into the sky and, really, its role during the Second World War when the broadcasting of the longs across the whole of the World Service was a symbol that britain had not yet fallen to the nazis. So it is kind of allowing up, a familiarity of being the backdrop we know for things happening in westminster which is where so much state stuff happens. But also this memory of it asa happens. But also this memory of it as a symbol of generally of edom. You have been inside the tower. What is it like up close . Amazing. Visits have been possible but what is so extraordinary are seeing the work going on up there. You can imagine carrying out an incredibly complicated conservation project 100 metres up in the air and doing it with the closest possible public scrutiny and with some quite challenging prerequisites which were set by the current body of parliament, one of which was to a lwa ys parliament, one of which was to always keep one of the clock faces revealed. They had to build that into the programme. And the other of which was that for two predetermined national events, armistice in the new year that the bill should sound. Armistice and the new year. At the bell should sound. The complexity of the project and the skills and the craftsmanship being brought to bear on it and the professionalism with which it is being done i found amazing. Professionalism with which it is being done i found amazingm professionalism with which it is being done i found amazing. Is it taking longer than expected . Being done i found amazing. Is it taking longer than expected . They a lwa ys taking longer than expected . They always said it would take from 2017 until 2021 and as far as i know that is still the plan. It is a long time but it is very complicated. As far asi but it is very complicated. As far as i know they are getting on with it. Great to get some insights into big ben. Thank you very much. Time now is 6. 43. Matters in glasgow for us now is 6. 43. Matters in glasgow for us by the river clyde. Abc news are spending time there today because we are looking at the impact of Climate Change, part of which is wonderful backdrop behind you there this morning. It is indeed. There is a un Climate Change conference taking place here, hoping to Reach Agreement on policy to tackle a warming climate, trying to tackle a warming climate, trying to maintain it at about 1. 5 degrees above preindustrial levels. But if anyone knows who spent any time in scotland, the climate here is very much a variable one from one year to the next, indeed from one hour to the next, indeed from one hour to the next. But how is the climate here changed over the years . The simplest way to show it is to use climate stripes developed by professor hoff kings at the university of reading. There are bars there below me and each bar represents two one year until 2019. The blue colours represent yea rs 2019. The blue colours represent years in which average temperatures in scotland were below average. The red colours show average temperatures above average and notice that even though there is variability from one year to the next there is a definite trend as we reach the present time and the climate here in scotland is warming, as it is across much of the world. It is important that we take a wider picture when we talk about Climate Change. Take those same stripes and put it in a global context and there isa put it in a global context and there is a definite trend there, coming all the way to 2019 in which we saw temperatures reach the second warmest on record globally and that is in warmest on record globally and that isina warmest on record globally and that is in a year where we did have did not have an el nino. It generally warms the planet last year we did not have one. Yet we still saw temperatures well above one degree higher than they were preindustrial e. And that is the big challenge faced here in the Conference Centre find me when they meet in november later this year. In glasgow at the moment we have dry conditions but lets have a look at the forecast because if you are after dry conditions you have got it this weekend. You will see chilly conditions, overnight frosts develop more widely as we go through the weekend. We need to get through today. As we see on the pressure chart we have low pressure in charge. The weather front tearing away from eastern england, that brought the rain yesterday. There are weather fronts there on the charts at the moment and that is an indication of showers working eastwards across the country as we go through today. Still breezy in places, but nowhere near as strong winds as we have seen in the last 24 hours. In england and wales, plenty of jobs to start the last 24 hours. In england and wales, plenty ofjobs to start the day, some on the heavy side, working from west to east stop drying up more generally across the west later. As in the way of showers across scotla nd in the way of showers across scotland and Northern Ireland. The showers you see will be a little bit wintry. And temperatures down on yesterdays values but above levels we should be at this time of the year. As we go through this evening and overnight, the showers become fewer in number. A breezy night across the north of scotland, where we could see winston watt 50 fit 5060 we could see winston watt 50 fit 50 60 mph. Further south, we could see winston watt 50 fit 50 60 mph. Furthersouth, dry conditions, and an indication of blue on the child says it will be frosty as we start we can. It is looking dry for most of you. There are some caveats, showers across scotla nd are some caveats, showers across scotland in particular, one or two may sneak into Northern Ireland and the north west of england, one or two down to the likes of the isles of scilly. For most it is a dry, sunny day on saturday. Fewer showers the afternoon and temperatures down a little on todays values. Helical already. Chilly today through saturday night into sunday. Blue colours on the chart. A widespread frost into the start of sunday with temperatures below freezing. For sunday itself, well, it is a day to get out and about. It will be crisp and fresh, plenty of sunshine around, light winds. Any early mist and fog badges were clear and sunshine for most. Showers in the north later. That is how it is looking, back to you. It is looking glorious there this morning. Such a stunning setting. A beautiful start. Thank you. It is six years since the commonwealth games. And we were up there absolutely. Very fond memories. That summer had beautiful weather. Matt, thank you. It all started as a bit of fun at the Christmas Party, when 83 year old margaret, who has dementia, performed a duet of Frank Sinatras my way, with care workerjamie lee morley. Six weeks later, a video of the heartwarming rendition has gone viral and is storming the download charts ahead of ed sheeran and james blunt. Well speak otjamie in a moment but first lets have a listen. Yes, there were times, im sure you knew when i bit off more than i could chew but through it all, when there was doubt i ate it up and spit it out ifaced it all, and i stood tall and did it my way. So you saw jamie so you sanamie there. A very good morning to you. Good morning. How are you doing . Icu smiling. You were smiling listening back to it. Everyone wants to know, tell us the story of margaret, because it is so lovely seeing her do that. Tell us about her. She is an absolute angel. She moved into the care home iwork in back in october and from day one she was a lwa ys october and from day one she was always singing, always just wanting music, and obviously she is living with dementia, so you kind of know what people take two more. She was a lwa ys what people take two more. She was always singing, are used to do singing partand always singing, are used to do singing part and me always singing, are used to do singing partand me being me i was singing partand me being me i was singing along with her, and frank sinatra, Elvis Presley, all the kind of classics. But she is absolutely amazing. Her character is just Something Else stop im sure if you measure you would feel the exact same as anybody else does, that she is justin credible. Tell us a bit more,jamie, is justin credible. Tell us a bit more, jamie, about how the dementia factor. Clearly she is singing the words of the song and you are saying she spends a lot of time singing, so something is a very clear for her, it is not unusual, is it, in the circumstances was yellow i wouldnt zetas, no, obviously everyone is different, i was a, but with margaret she seems to take to the music. It has obviously been a passion of hers for many, many yea rs. Passion of hers for many, many years. She is always dancing, always singing. So with her into something that makes her feel more like herself or she comes to life with things like that. So with margaret, music is clearly therapy for her. Are you going to be doing more recordings . I think we could do, after this. After the success of the single and how it is doing now, woke up single and how it is doing now, woke up this morning and it was number 15 on the itunes pop charts, that was crazy. And all the money from the single is being donated to the Alzheimers Society and dimanche uk, and that is 100 of the proceeds going to these charities, so there is no middleman dimanche at uk. They will get 100 of the proceeds raised from the single which is available on all major platforms. About all the other people in the ca re about all the other people in the care home and margaret herself, how aware are they of what has happened was yellow there are a few who are very much aware. Theyre obviously different stages, we have to live and stuff like that. There are a few who are very aware. They played the music yesterday to a couple of the residents and the place was a blubbering mess. There was crying, tea rs, blubbering mess. There was crying, tears, it was amazing, but for margaret to feel like that around eve ryo ne margaret to feel like that around everyone she is living with as amazing, because it clearly makes her feel amazing, because it clearly makes herfeel more at amazing, because it clearly makes her feel more at ease and everyone around her is supporting her. Everybody at north quay, the care home we work out, it is amazing. They have never done this job before up they have never done this job before up until last september so it has been a big change for me, so the fa ct been a big change for me, so the fact that i can do something with music and then introduce it to this and now we are here. Jamie, it is absolutely lovely. Next week we have james blunt here with us on the sofa and as they understand that you are beating him on the charts. Have you got a message for him . James, try ain got a message for him . James, try again laughter. Applause. That is very funny. A lot of people are going to love what you have done. You have a lovely voice yourself, it is worth saying. That is very kind of you. I do music and they have been a singer since eye can remember and they do a lot of charity work, so usually if i am doing gigs it is mainly charity work. They have my full time job to pay the bills. A lot being able to give back from something day love so much to other people. It is something that is in me. And i think it is the way i was rosol. A moist giving, ifi it is the way i was rosol. A moist giving, if i can, and this has clearly been amazing for everyone involved, including margarets family. Her daughter has been so supportive. The care home, the kadima, the seniors, everyone and everything has been amazing. Jamie, it has been lovely talking to you this morning. We wish you all the best. Make sure you download the single look forward to seeing james blunt single look forward to seeing james blu nt rea ct single look forward to seeing james blunt react to that next week. We have him on. Fabulous. If they said to you, oh, i could krusher grape idea of that. I remember crackerjack in an earlier incarnation, the late 60s, early 70s. Crackerjack ran on bbc one from 1959 to 1984 and was famous for its double or drop cabbage game. It returns to our screens tonight and our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson has been for a look behind the scenes. Its friday, at six oclock, and its crackerjack its crackerjack the time and song may have changed, but little else has. Crackerjack is back with the same mix of games, gags, and guns. No new host sam and mark showed me around the set. First day on the job, give yourself time for lunch. And explain why it had returned after 36 years. Itsjust such an iconic show. It was just a bit of a no brainer. They suggested it to us and we were like an honour, a massive Family Entertainment show is what we love doing and this ticks all the boxes. Starting in 1959, it was hosted by amon andrews. What you think of the show so far . By the 19705, audiences reached a. 5 million. , with the contestants including future speaker of the house ofjohn commins, john bercow a. 5 million. He lost. And then in the 805 there was stuart fraser. I could jump then in the 805 there was stuart fraser. I couldjump off then in the 805 there was stuart fraser. I could jump off a dolls house. When i remember it was all about catchphrases. Are you inventing some . We are going to try a few. We are going to have more fun thana a few. We are going to have more fun than a toad in a toga doing lots of yoga. What are the rules of catchphrases, if you say this is your catchphrase people say no, it is not. It is a catchphrase of its outworking. Thats the thing, thats all organic. Apparently that is now your catchphrase. The crackerjack catchphrase will hopefully catch on. Whenever we save crackerjack the audience as crackerjack now, this isa audience as crackerjack now, this is a sure sign crackerjack has returned, a huge stack of pies. And the First Episode of the new Series Features a number of crackerjack greats. Oh, i could krusher grape. How does it feel to be back on the set of crackerjack . Crackerjack brilliant, feels great. Why is this the right time to bring it back . dont think there was ever a right time to take it away. As the old story goes, if it aint broke, dont mend it. It is as if id blinked and woke up 40 years later and nothing has changed, apart from the legs dont work like they used to. Has changed, apart from the legs dont work like they used tom has changed, apart from the legs dont work like they used to. It was the best children show ever and somebody has had the right idea to bring back top class television. think they needed to wait for the right presenters and i think the two lads, they are fabulous. We need crackerjack. We want to get to get of their iphones, everybody get into the same room, and watch this Event Television altogether so we can shout crackerjack crackerjack you are meant to shout crackerjack, mr oh, sorry, crackerjack keep up. And as for that change in time, eye would love if there was some pedant dad who gets on the iplayer and sta rts dad who gets on the iplayer and starts at at five to five. If you wa nt to starts at at five to five. If you want to make a proper nostalgic do it like that. Just watch it. We dont care and there was only one way we could and this piece. Crackerjack what was the last bit . Crackerjack. Crackerjack pencil. Everyone was happy when they got one of those. Did it have a rubber on the end . Everyone wanted one, thats all they know. Wed love to hear some of your memories of crackerjack and any experiences you had on the show. You can email us at bbcbrea kfast bbc. Co. Uk hello, im asad ahmad. Families of those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire have met the Prime Minister to raise concerns about a potential conflict of interest involving a Senior Member of the inquiry. Benita mehra willjoin the inquiry for its second phase later this month. But a newspaper has revealed that she used to run a charity with links to the American Firm behind the cladding on the tower. 72 people died in 2017 with the cladding widely blamed for the fire spreading. We have to look into it and see what the facts are and if there is, you know, a conflict of interest, im afraid she has to just go, she has to be replaced with somebody else. Scotland yard has referred itself back to the Police Watchdog as it continues to face criticism over its investigation into an alleged vip paedophile ring. Carl beech was jailed after falsely claiming he was raped and tortured by members of the establishment. The independent office for Police Conduct is to examine the forces handling of two other complainants in operation midland. Mayor of london sadiq khan has warned against what he called a fashionable anti london agenda. At the annual Mansion House dinner in the city last night, the mayor warned about neglecting london as the government moves to level up spending elsewhere in the country. In recent years we have already seen london excluded from several government funding pots and this, i fear, is only set to get worse. Damage in london damages growth and jobs everywhere else in the country too. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Metropolitan line has severe delays southbound from harrow on the hill due to a signal failure this morning. Asad on the trains, Thameslink Services both north and south of st pancras station are running with cancellations and delays followong a signal fault near luton airpory parkway.

Get set for a dry, a sunny, and a colder feel to things this weekend. And that colder air will be with us by the end of the day today. But its still a mild start. A day of sunny spells and some showers. Some of the showers are likely to be rather heavy in places, particularly this morning, there could even be a bit of hail around for a while too. But lots of dry weather, some spells of brightness and sunshine. Watch out for some further afternoon showers and and then the colder air filters through from the west. So while were looking at highs of 10 or 11 celsius around about midday, those temperatures are likely to drop off by the end of the afternoon. So it will feel rather chilly. A noticeable breeze, but lighter than it was yesterday. Now were in for a cold night overnight tonight. The skies will clear, the winds will lighten further and the temperatures will drop off. Low enough to get a bit of frost into tomorrow morning. So its a much chillierfeel to things this weekend. There will be a lot of sunshine around. High pressure builds in, its going to stay dry.

Social Media Companies, such as facebook, twitter and instagram, should be forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. Proposals by the Royal College of psychiatrists could see Companies Face a new tax, which would Fund Research into a how a childs Online Activity affects their Mental Health. Angus crawford reports. She had so much to offer. Molly russells death. Now its gone. Sparked a national outcry. These are companies that count their profits in the billions, and they turn around and say to us that they cant protect our children . Questions about young people and Mental Health. You can compel them to do what needs to be done . Yes, absolutely. Focusing public anger on the tech giants, and demands for greater regulation. Announced in the queens speech, the governments plans for a new, independent regulator, and a statutory duty of care. My ministers will develop legislation to improve internet safety for all. But the Royal College of psychiatrists wants tougher action. Social Media Companies are very wealthy. Theyve got a huge amount of knowledge. They can create complex algorithms which hook young people into their platforms. Why cant they be using the same amount of energy, knowledge and funding to try and harness the positive benefits, and help try and protect children . Tech giants should be forced to share data with university researchers, and be taxed on their global turnover. New apps should be designed to be age appropriate. Radical solutions, which wont be popular with an industry making billions from the children who use its products. Just after 7. 30 well be speaking to the father of Molly Russell, who believes social media was partly responsible for his daughters death two years ago. Rebecca long bailey and Emily Thornberry will set out their visions for the labour party, as they launch their rival bids to succeed Jeremy Corbyn as leader. Labour says around 14,700 people have applied to register as temporary supporters so they can vote in the leadership contest. Were joined now from westminster by our Political Correspondent iain watson. This is a formal day in a way when two candidates put themselves forward. We both knew that they would be doing this at some point but both of these campaigns have been low key so far and they are now stepping up a gear. Rebecca long bailey is on the left of the party and she has now been supported by the left wing grassroots group, momentum. They will put their resources behind her and she is formally launching tonight. She will launch in manchester underlining the fa ct launch in manchester underlining the fact she is not part of any metropolitan elite and what she will say that for many people in parts the uk, that they reveal that westminster is 1 the uk, that they reveal that westminster is1 million miles the uk, that they reveal that westminster is 1 million miles away from them and she will be devolving and pushing power away from westminster, she says, towards the local areas and the regions of the united kingdom. She also said she wa nts to united kingdom. She also said she wants to when the Gentlemans Club in british politics which may seem to bea in british politics which may seem to be a bit ofa in british politics which may seem to be a bit of a jibe at her closest rival, keir starmer. Emily thornburys campaign is yet to get off the ground. She just scraped in getting enough support from fellow mps to reach this stage in the contest. Launching a Council Estate where she grew up in guildford, trying to maintain the i hear that she is not from islington in north london. But she will argue she has the personal attributes to take on borisjohnson. She the personal attributes to take on Boris Johnson. She is the personal attributes to take on borisjohnson. She is tough, resilient and battle hardened. And for those confused about who can vote and the temporary supporters, can you take us through who is entitled to vote . Fully paid up Labour Party Members are entitled to vote, people can stilljoin the party until next monday. And then people who are members of a trade union can also vote. But there is also a registered supporter category, a recent thing. 15,000 people have chosen to vote in this way. You do not become a fully paid member of the labour party who have to go to meetings but you get a vote in leadership competitions. This figure of around 15,000 is small compared to last time when more than 100,000 decided to vote via this route. That could be bad news for Jess Phillips because her pitch was tojoin labour in order to change it, to get people from outside the party who had left the party under Jeremy Corbyn and want to see a change of direction, to come in and cast a vote. But not many have decided to do that this time. A british teenager who was found guilty of lying about being raped by a group of men in cyprus, has launched an appeal against her conviction. The 19 year old returned to the uk last week, after being given a suspended jail sentence for public mischief. She insists that she retracted her original statement after being put under pressure by police. The us military has revealed that 11 american soldiers were injured in an Iranian Missile strike on an iraqi base nine days ago. A military spokesman said that although there were no deaths, some Service Members were treated for concussion after the attack. Previously, the us had denied that any of its military personnel were hurt. The attack on Al Asad Air Base was in retaliation for the assassination of irans top military commander, qasem soleimani. Two hospitals which were being built by the engineering giant, carillion when it collapsed, will be delayed, according to the National Audit office. The Royal Liverpool and the midland metropolitan wont be completed until 2022 and each will cost around 300 Million Pounds more than originally thought. The government says it is giving both trusts extra funding to minimise further delays. Thousands of people who raised money for ben to time except to be disappointed. Nearly £100,000 have been donated but the house of commons authority which manages the parliamentary estate says it will not accept the money. Mps supporting the deal said the Prime Minister should not back out now. Lets run through the main stories this morning. It is nine minutes past seven. This morning we are hearing about glasgows ambitions to become global Carbon Neutral by 2030. Scientists have warned that this year is unlikely to buck the trend of warming. The last ten years have been confirmed as the warmest decade on record. 2016 saw the highest Global Temperatures and last year was the second warmest, according to nasa and the met office with records dating back to 1850. Yesterday we had said David Attenborough worn that the claimant has reached a climb that crisis moment. He has asked for governments to do more to tackle the threat. China and the United States admit the most greenhouse gases, contributing more than 40 of the global total and scientist say well need to make more sustainable lifestyle choices in to severely avoid damaging the planet. Glasgow is trying to make changes and that is where our science editor is this morning for us. And they have some ambitious targets there in glasgow. Good morning. Yes they are ambitious. A fascinating place to be here at the Science Centre in glasgow. An amazing array of exhibits about future energy and the choices the country can make in the coming years. You mentioned sir David Attenborough reporting on his comments on his programme yesterday and the extraordinary warming that warning that the moment of crisis has come. As a whole, the uk said an ambition of trying to be net zero, Carbon Neutral by 2050. More and more towns and cities up and down the country want to go faster than that. Glasgow is one of them. It set itself the goal of being Carbon Neutral by 2030, just ten years away. So how will they do that . What are the challenges that the city faces on thatjourney to zero carbon . I have been looking at the plans for the city. The morning rush hourin plans for the city. The morning rush hour in glasgow. Commuters pour into scotlands biggest city. Nearly all their cars releasing pollution. Motorways run straight through glasgow. For decades the car has been king. But now there is a radical plan to go Carbon Neutral. New charging points for electric vehicles are being installed. The aim is to make the city green in ten yea rs. Aim is to make the city green in ten years. And the councils lorries will be adapted to run on Clean Hydrogen as well as diesel. This is only one very small part of a long list of what needs to be done. How big challenge is it . Getting to Carbon Neutral by 2030 is a big challenge and one that we take seriously. It is not enough for a few people in council to work on that, it is a challenge that Everybody Needs to ta ke challenge that Everybody Needs to take part in and we need to get everybody across the city engaged within and we need to work on it now. Already, more and more of the uks electricity is becoming carbon free. Here on the edge of glasgow is one of europes largest wind farms. There are big plans for many more turbines and for solar panels. Totally Carbon Neutral not be easy. We have done some studies recently which is say that we need to start installing 4000 heat pumps and electric vehicle charging points every day across the uk and ordered to set the targets we have set ourselves. Is that feasible . If we start now. Hardest of all will be making glasgows housing greener. And that is the case across the country because most homes are heated by gas. The mass of pipes being worked on here as part of a scheme to draw warmth from the river clyde and use it to heat an entire district. We are not burning anything on the site. district. We are not burning anything on the site. I asked dave pearson in charge of the project if glasgow is really on course to become Carbon Neutral. glasgow is really on course to become Carbon Neutral. I dont think so. In all honesty the momentum is all about progress. There are lots of ideas and lots of talk but we need to actually decide that the city will become gas free by a date and how best to do that. We have not even started yet. It is hard to believe as things stand how glasgow orany believe as things stand how glasgow or any major city could possibly be cut be Carbon Neutral in as little as ten years time. But the council says it wants to send a signal that at least it is trying. In this matter is because International Summit on Climate Change is due to ta ke summit on Climate Change is due to take place here in november and the world will be watching what this city does. Now as i mentioned, that summit on Climate Change that is due to ta ke summit on Climate Change that is due to take place here in november is billed as what could be the largest gathering of World Leaders ever on british soil. It will be a key moment when the world faces decisions about how to respond to Climate Change and it will serve as an incentive to the city here and everybody who lives and works in it. And i think that is a key question going forward. How do the people, the residents of glasgow react to these plans, as in other cities trying to do the same thing. What will the reaction of motorist, for example, be if they face higher charges for driving into the city. What about tenants in social Housing Schemes estimate providing new ways of providing housing that make heating and cooling. By now counsellor working on detailed plans and we will get those in april. Thank you so much, david. It will be so interesting if they can meet that ambition. It is good to have it. And we are spending a lot of time in glasgow this morning so we will have more on that throughout the programme this morning. With saying that Climate Change on 20 20th here at the bbc we will have a lot of coverage throughout the year and any information you need you can find it online or on the bbc news app. Matt is by the river clyde in glasgow where bbc news is taking a closer look at the impact of Climate Change. That is why david was just reporting from. Having a look at Climate Change also. It is a subject you are interested in but you will also bring us up to date with the weather, matthew. Good morning. Good morning. As david mason, the big conference, it will take place in the buildings behind mejust there. It isa the buildings behind mejust there. It is a big challenge as well, 2019, the second warmest on record, but 36 countries broke the National Record last year and so the challenge is a massive one to get the policy right to tackle that. Let us deal with the forecast for the here and now. We have seen plenty of rain, strong winds this week. If we look at the forecast we start with the weekend, lets give you some optimism after the wet and windy weather. Most places will be fine dry and sunny, but it will turn colder this weekend, be prepared for the return of overnight frost. It will feel much like much more likely to do. Damages as we have been above the level of what they should be for the time of year. It will feel more like january. As we go through today, to get to that, we have low pressure close by. Weather fronts clearing away from the eastern half of the uk, persistent rain yesterday, weather fronts there. An uk, persistent rain yesterday, weatherfronts there. An indication of batches of showers, there is a good chance you will get wet at some point. The showers a bit heavy in places. Starting to dry out from the west later on. Scotland and Northern Ireland, a few showers around today. But they will be wintry over the high ground. Temperatures dropping relative to the past few days. Still active not above where should be for the time of year. As we go into the evening and overnight most of the showers will have led. They will keep going across parts of northern and western scotland. Quite breezy as it will be through today. Breeze towards the far south west of england. With lighter winds, clear skies elsewhere, the blue colours on the temperature chart an indication that more of you will wake up to a frost as we start the weekend. It will be a fresh start to saturday. The bulk of england and wales will be dry. Maybe one or two showers into north west england. Showers across scotland to begin with any north or west. One or two of those could sneak into Northern Ireland. Still a bit of a breeze blowing. That will ease down. The showers become fewer in number. All of you will finish the day on saturday dry and sunny and temperatures widely into single figures. Feeling chillier than it has done this week. Ive recall the date with light winds to take us through saturday night into sunday, the temperature chart shows how widespread the frost will be. Most places will wake up to a covering of light on the ground. The frosts will be widespread. Temperatures below freezing in most parts away from city centres. As you wa ke parts away from city centres. As you wake up on sunday, if you have any plans and want to spend time outdoors, if you have been stuck in because of the wet and witty weather, sunday is your day to do it. Dry, sunny through much of the day, cloud into northern scotland later, one or two showers potentially into shetland, but right a pleasant crisp winter one. Temperatures in single figures for the vast majority. Thats how it is looking. I will hand you back. Thank you very much. Good morning, to you. Here is a question. What would you say if your boss offered you four extra days holiday each year the only catch is you cant take a smoking break while at work. Its a reward employees at a company in swindon have been promised, if they stub out their habit for the rest of the year. Well speak to the boss in a moment, but first heres what you made of the idea. Its if you. I mean, i dont take any exception to employers wanting to implement that type of system, but i wouldnt say that someone who smokes or vapours does less work than someone who doesnt. smokes or vapours does less work than someone who doesnt. I wouldnt give up, but i would give up during working hours for the four days, and it would be better for my health as well. So its a good idea. The rest of them put the tools down because one of them is having a faith. You are losing downtime every day circular against what people who do smoke it is unfair, they get a couple of extra days just smoke it is unfair, they get a couple of extra daysjust because they have an unhealthy habit full up but i think as an incentive, definitely. It means you can cut smoking and get a couple of extra days, which is nice. I dont smoke except socially, so why would never smoke at work. So it does annoy me, particularly in hospitality, people ta ke particularly in hospitality, people take a lot more breaks than i ever did. Ive probably got one in eight hours ago every half hour. Were nowjoined by don bryden, who offered his staff extra time off if they stopped smoking at work and also by journalist kuba shand ba ptiste who is in our london newsroom. Good morning to you both. Good morning. Lets figure this out. How many workers have you got . 13. About 50 . Six or seven smokers, including myself. And how did the workers who smoke, actually, how do they all respond . To be fair, it was quite good. A lot of banter between the two sides, because they said they are getting for extra days holiday. The other one said they would put their smokes out. One particular guy put it out and has not smoked since. You are not telling people how to run the entire lives, saying you have to stop smoking, you are saying, as the boss of the company, dont smoke on my time. You come to the office, you dont get to about 410 minute breaks . Technically it is that im they are losing for ten minute breaks. We are trying to create a smoke free environment in the working place. We are trying to create a healthy environment. Creating a healthier environment is creating a happier environment to stop by looked at the non smoker sitting there working, and i was is over a period of time, the non smokers who are continuing, and there is the argument about taking coffee breaks of chocolate breaks or whatever, im talking about smoke breaks, we worked out, taking three ten minutes smoke breaks on an eight hour working day, working five days a week, equates to 16 25 days working per annum. It a week, equates to 16 25 days working perannum. It is a week, equates to 16 25 days working per annum. It isjust over five days. If they have only taken an eight minute smoke break, hence the reason for the four days. We can change the days of holiday back and forward. What is the incentive . Say somebody is going to say i will not ta ke somebody is going to say i will not take a smoke break for three months . For three months you get a day. The next three months, you get another day. Let us find out from kuba what she thinks about this. Do you think this could work in Larger Companies . To be very clear, it is not that smokers are having holidays taken away from them, it is that non smokers are being given extra days. Yeah, think it could work in theory, but i think may only issue is that a wonder how many smokers would actually stop smoking during working hours . There are ways around it. If i, for example, was offered that opportunity, i have a feeling eye would think of all the way they could probably get away with continuing to smoke while also benefiting from this policy. Continuing to smoke while also benefiting from this policym would be pretty difficult, because sneaking out for a cigarette break, one you have got to be outside, two, the smell of it when you come back, and three people ask where you have been. Yukka smoke on the way to a meeting or on the way back a meeting. You could slather yourself in body cream or whatever. I think there are so many methods that smokers are sort of used to taking, especially if you have been smoking from your teenage years and upwards, ive having to hide things continuously, so eye could see people doing that at some point. So, don, how do you go about the policing of it . They know yours is a small company, but in a Bigger Company could be more difficult. Is it trust . If somebody says i am not nipping out, im doing Something Else. You have to have an element of trust in your workforce. If you do not have the trust theres no point doing it. Consent argument by offering an incentive to live a healthier lifestyle and be more productive i cannot. Healthier lifestyle and be more productive i cannot. You said you area productive i cannot. You said you are a smoker. Have you taken next holiday . My wife has encouraged me to ta ke holiday . My wife has encouraged me to take the extra four days of angular smoking. Which path are you taking . I have got to stop smoking. Lead from the top. But you havent yet. I havent yet. Are you going to make a pledge . They will have to put my loss to smoke out today. When is that . Probably when a from this. It is momentous for smokers becoming non smokers. Is momentous for smokers becoming nonsmokers. I have been smoking ever since they was a kid in the military. Fortunately, i have the ability to be able to stop for a period of days and then something will happen and ice again. period of days and then something will happen and ice again. I suppose ina way, will happen and ice again. I suppose in a way, kuba, don has said it live here and now, he is leading by example. You cant quibble without in terms of management sending down a message. I think it is a really positive move. I think is far as Health Policies go, it is a really good thing. Unfortunately smoking is one of those habits, its a stupid habit, a stupid addiction, in the sense that we all know its bad for us, but the sort of cunning of smokers kind of tends to override our logic sometimes, unfortunately. You are a smoker and you know that loads of smokers are going to be quite upset with them for you for calling them cunning and sneaking . Im speaking for myself, not the whole community. Don, you are going to be so under scrutiny now by your employees. Not just to be so under scrutiny now by your employees. Notjust your to be so under scrutiny now by your employees. Not just your employees. You have done this on national television. They have committed myself but i have also made a great statement. And if i can help and encourage by stopping smoking, lets do it by there will be posted up around swindon. Do you see this man . will you stay in touch . A one month marker, three month marker, three month and ill take my first day holiday. Maybe we will talk to you on your first day. Thats a great idea. Thanks for your time this morning. And, kuba, thank you as well. This is what we didnt talk about, they dont see why people who smoke or vapour allowed more breaks than those who dont. People who smoke or vapour allowed more breaks than those who dontm is one of those things that occurs in the workplace. Still to come on breakfast our very own mike bushell will be joined by strictly winner Kelvin Fletcher to tell us about the first night of the strictly tour and a special performance for people with autism or learning disabilities. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Hello. Im asad ahmad. Families of those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire have met the Prime Minister to raise concerns about a potential conflict of interest involving a Senior Member of the inquiry. Benita mehra willjoin the inquiry for its second phase later this month. But a newspaper has revealed that she used to run a charity with links to the American Firm behind the cladding on the tower. 72 people died in 2017 with the cladding widely blamed for the fire spreading. Mayor of london sadiq khan has warned against what he called a fashionable anti london agenda. At the annual Mansion House dinner in the city last night, the mayor warned about neglecting london as the government moves to level up spending elsewhere in the country. In recent years weve already seen london excluded from several government funding pots and this, i fear, is only set to get worse. Damaging london damages growth and jobs everywhere else in the country too. The bbc has learned that a coin, struck when edward viii was king, has become the first british coin to sell for a Million Pounds. Its one of a trial set of six which never went into mass production owing to the duke of windsors abdication in 1936. He actually wanted a set himself but was refused by george vi the queens father. The coins face value is £1. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Metropolitan line has severe delays southbound from harrow on the hill due to a signal failure this morning. On the trains, Thameslink Services both north and south of st pancras station are running with cancellations and delays following a signal fault near Luton Airport parkway. And theres disruption on southern trains between victoria and London Bridge following a tree on the line at pulborough. On the roads, westbound traffic on the highway is slow through wapping towards tower hill. Now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello. Good morning. Get set for a dry, a sunny, and a colder feel to things this weekend. And that colder air will be with us by the end of the day today. But its still a mild start. A day of sunny spells and some showers. Some of the showers are likely to be rather heavy in places, particularly this morning, there could even be a bit of hail around for a while too. But lots of dry weather, some spells of brightness and sunshine. Watch out for some further afternoon showers and and then the colder air filters through from the west. So while were looking at highs of 10 or 11 celsius around about midday, those temperatures are likely to drop off by the end of the afternoon. So it will feel rather chilly. A noticeable breeze, but lighter than it was yesterday. Now were in for a cold night overnight tonight. The skies will clear, the winds will lighten further and the temperatures will drop off. Low enough to get a bit of frost into tomorrow morning. So its a much chillierfeel to things this weekend. There will be a lot of sunshine around. High pressure builds in, its going to stay dry. Another frosty night on saturday into sunday. Watch out for some mist and fog into the start of next week. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Bye bye. Hello. It is coming up to 7. 30. This is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. Thousands of people will be asked to share their experiences of Sexual Harassment, in what the government says is one of the biggest surveys of its kind ever undertaken. The Equalities Office says the stories will help shape new laws on Sexual Harassment in the workplace. It was one of the pledges in the 2019 conservative manifesto and were joined now by the minister for women, victoria atkins. Good morning to you and thank you for your time. Can you explain what this survey is . It is a representative survey of more than 12,000 people across the uk asking them for their experience is of Sexual Harassment. It may be that they have no experience. But we want to know their stories so we can ensure that the laws and measures we have in place will help stamp this awful habit out, particularly in the workplace. I am pleased as well the guidance is being released this week for employers to help them shape their policies to make sure that this sort of behaviour in the workplace is stamped out. This sort of behaviour. When we say Sexual Harassment, how do you see it . What is it . It is behaviour of a sexual nature which intimidates or causes distress or humiliate the person to whom it is directed. I am keen for people to understand that this is not a debate about one sort or another. We have 15 categories of behaviour that are quite serious. If you look down the list there are serious categories of behaviour and we wa nt serious categories of behaviour and we want to find out how these behaviours of people who have experienced them, how they make people feel, have they been able to get help . How successful was the help, and so on so that we can ensure our work places are pleasant places in which to work. So this is a personal thing and in some way people speak out and i braved to do so but no workplace is immune. I wonder, from your own Work Experience in places you have worked m, experience in places you have worked in, what experience have you had . have suffered Sexual Harassment. I am not going to be drawn on the details because i am not going to be defined by the grubby behaviour of the men who behave like that towards me. But the huge benefit of this survey is that it is anonymous, confidential and people can share their stories in a way that they can feel safe with the data will be used to help us with policy and it will not be revealed to anyone else. ta ke not be revealed to anyone else. take on board what you say that you will not share the details but, given that, people will be curious as to whatever happened, the effect it had on you. I have worked in many workplaces and i suspect, like many people, i have seen a range of behaviours. Somewhere the thoughts of behaviour that you could not quite brush off but you take as part of growing up and adult life. But also there are some behaviours that are quite uncomfortable and did upset me. So i very much, you know, i come at this with a great deal of sympathy and empathy for people across the country who have suffered and this is precisely why the government wants to help victims of Sexual Harassment in the workplace because we have a new decade, we wa nt to because we have a new decade, we want to renew our country, we want to ensure that all parts of our country are enjoying the same sorts of opportunities and this, to me, is pa rt of opportunities and this, to me, is part of that levelling off that the Prime Minister talks about. part of that levelling off that the Prime Minister talks about. I know you have seen this story, a story about lucy, the Crystal Palace womens goalkeeper and she is accusing the Football Association of not following their own protocol around discriminatory abuse. She was subjected to sexist abuse and body shaming while she was laying on goal, a group of men behind her, for 40 minutes, the whole of the first half of the match, was shouting abuse at her. She complained to the referee and it appears, from what she said, that absolutely nothing was done. That is her workplace, isnt it . That is a working environment. What are your thoughts on that playing out in a public forum. It is her workplace and the fa and referees should have acted upon it. I think the fa is facing all sorts of questions at the had but of course she and others are entitled to not have to put up with that sort of abuse. It is just not on. She is there to work and she should be allowed to do it. In a way, what that illustrates quite well, notwithstanding that you are trying to collate information, one of the real problems in practice is what do you do. What do you do . This goalkeeper, for example, she did the right thing. She alerted the authorities and yet nothing happened. I suppose in a very real sense, knowing that it is happening a lot is one thing but the confidence in thinking that something will happen is a very different thing. Indeed this is something that the survey will ask the respondents to talk about, what happened in their experience and in their workplace. And this is why we collect the data. This is the largest ever survey of the kind in the uk and there has not been much evidence thus far on the effect of social harassment. We had a couple of surveys that show around 40 of women have suffered Sexual Harassment in the work is in the past and that is why we want to build a body of evidence that we can see if there is more that we need to do. I would also refer back to the guidance. Having positive guidance for employers to help them craft policies that will ensure their workplaces are nicer and better places for people to work in. That will be, i think, an important step as well. And it is also about culture. Why were those people behaving in the way you described it a Football Ground . There behaving in the way you described it a Football Ground . There is a longer term piece of work here about changing out attitude and our culture so when i talk about my experiences in trying to brush things off, that we should not have to be ina things off, that we should not have to be in a position where we do that. And so the Education Programmes that we have coming up with relationships, education for young people, for children, that will help in the longer term and, of course, we run campaigns such as disrespect nobody to help teenagers understand that they do not have to endure abusive relationships. Thank you very much for your time this morning. Victoria adkins is the minister for women. Morning. Victoria adkins is the ministerfor women. In relation to what happened to lucy gillett at Crystal Palace, the fa say they are investigating what happened on that day. It is now 736. Matt will have the weather shortly for us but holly is here. Good morning. Mr stokes is doing quite well with the cricket. Swinging into action once again. Another occasion where we see england on the first day of the third test in south africa seeming to struggle but step up the newly crowned world player of the year, the players player of the year, doing what he does best. He is just the hero of them all. It was a slow going for england on day one of the third test against south africa things are looking a little shaky. Ben stokes came to the crease and he is still there. England resume on 220 four four in around 20 minutes time. Englands batsmen today can be inspired by what happened yesterday morning. England batting with a short. They reached lunch without losing a wicket, crawley and sibley. The signs were encouraging. But south africa set a trap, specifically a fielder, right there. Sibley caught for 36 and zach crawley fell for it as well, gone for 44. And it was one of the days highlights. Tranquillity at the cricket was matched by Port Elizabeth itself. Slow going. Anytime a fast bowler does that it is a triumph. But he had just dismissed englands captain so drain every drop of celebration. Every drop. The final session saw the best of ollie pope. And ben stokes will do this at the crease. A full morning of these two batting would serve englands interest perfectly. We could see some of englands top by we could see some of englands top rug by stars we could see some of englands top rugby stars playing in the Second Division next season. The champions saracens under threat of relegation, if theyre found to have breached the salary cap again. England captain owen farrell is among the large saracens contingent in the national squad. The london club has already been fined and docked 35 points for going over the 7 Million Pounds allowed, for the past three seasons but its believed theyre struggling to get salaries under that limit again. This england defender ashley young has been open about his desire to leave Manchester United for the italian giants inter milan. And hell be having a medical there today, with a fee agreed of around 1. 3 million. The move looked inevitable when young was left out of the united squad for their last three games. Andy murrays comeback from injury has been further delayed and hes not putting a timescale on his return. The pelvic injury that forced him out of the Australian Open is taking longer to heal than he first thought. He said he wouldnt step back on court until the time was right. Harriet dart has made it into the first round of the Australian Open after she won her final qualifying match. Britains number one jo konta will also be there, despite a niggling knee injury. Konta witnessed the poor air quality that affected qualifying in melbourne and she believes tournaments may need to be moved in future. I think that is a reality of the situation. We play in a lot of very populated cities all over the world and with overpopulation and pollution and that, it is just the way that the sport has been going so far. There is always room to grow and improve and find better alternatives and better ways and i think everyone is open to that. There was controversy at the masters snooker, as ali carter scrapped his way to a surprise win over the two time Champion John higgins at ally pally last night. The referee called a foul shot when carter missed the yellow he insisted hed hit it, though, and she overturned her decision but the replay showed the balls didnt touch. Theres no suggestion of dishonesty on carters part. He went on to win 6 3 to reach the semi finals, where hell play shaun murphy. The thing about that, it is similar to the etiquette and the principles of golf. An honest persons game. When it is all on camera they are not going to try to lie, are they . It is like a vaio. Exactly. They watched it back immediately and went over did not touch. So he still got it . She overturned her decision and they played on. He got his way. He should have had a four point penalty. It should have been a penalty. It should have been a penalty. But just say with confidence, it is fine. Dont doubt yourself. The time now is 7. 41. Two years ago, 14 year old Molly Russell took her own life. Her family say she was exposed to harmful content online and believe social media was partly responsible for her death. This now mollys father, ian, says social Media Companies should be forced to pay for research into the links between a childs online activities and their Mental Health. Ian russell joins us from our london newsroom now. Good morning to you, and thank you for talking to us and coming on the programme again. Could you remind us about the circumstances surrounding mollys death in relation to social media and what you discovered . After molly died we had many questions inevitably about what had happened to her and why she made the decision that she did. That led us to look on her social media accounts and what we found there was shocking. There we re we found there was shocking. There were memes of depressive material that encourage depression and anxiety, normalising such subjects andi anxiety, normalising such subjects and i think it led her to her death death or lead her to death. And it was disturbing to see these things are so obvious easily found on platforms such as instagram and pi nte rest. On platforms such as instagram and pinterest. Just talking about the content pinterest. Just talking about the co nte nt you pinterest. Just talking about the content you are saying molly was exposed to, it is interesting because this is not as simple as people being encouraged to take their own lives or bullying online or looking up images which related to hashtag suicide. These are images that were perhaps not meant to make someone depressed, they could almost be pieces of art, it could be argued. You could look at them in many ways but i think, collectively, when you start looking at those images on the internet, the algorithms that are there, start putting more and more pushing more and more of those images and content and connects you to other people in a similar desperate place. And there is an element of self help, iam and there is an element of self help, i am sure there is an element of self help goes on but there is an absence of professional help on the platforms and an absence of real ca re platforms and an absence of real care and platforms and an absence of real care and i think it is even possible that those public obvious platforms can lead you to darker places on the internet where there is much more discussion about suicide and it is just a horrible spiral, a vicious circle that leads you into a desperate place. The word i will pick up on theirs algorithm. I will be interested to know that when you approach social Media Companies, i know you spoke to groups who look at research into this, how easy is it to separate an algorithm that is promoting fashion, for example, online and direct your feed on instagram or twitter to those kind of things and for the algorithm to distinguish between something that is, in inverted commas, dark matter. It can be quite hard. That is what the social Media Company seem to say. They say does not as easy as we may think. It taken a long time to inch their way to a safer platform. Some measures have been taken but i dont think they have yet moved fast enough or gone far enough because there is still too much danes dangerous and harmful content online. How much money do you think they will throw at this . The proof is that they are not throwing enough money at this because the content is still there and the era of self regulation has not proven to be effective. That is why other measures are needed and if there was a levy that was forced upon them so that they had to pay it would be a tiny amount in terms of their profit but it only needs to provide for good proper Academic Research with anonymized data so that the whole world can better understand the problems that are driving young people into desperate places. With the governments plans for an independent regulator, do you think that will have teeth . Will it make a difference . The government have promised, we are waiting for them to publish the response to the online hums turn it into legislation, it has to have teeth. Promised it would have teeth and be effective. They promised the uk would lead the world in terms of online regulation to make the internet a safer place. The royal couege internet a safer place. The Royal College of psychiatrists are saying if there was a 2 levy on these Tech Companies in the uk, one, that doesnt go far enough, but the proposal, in practice, forcing that upon them, it would be the larger ones, not the start ups, would prove difficult in practice. Im not a tax expert. Ama bereaved parent. And i think that is what government is for. They have looked at this for some time. A 2 levy would generate lots of funds and that would fund lots of funds and that would fund lots of funds and that would fund lots of research so that proper medical bodies like the royal couege medical bodies like the Royal College of psychiatrists can look into this and do Proper Research on data that is anonymized, so there is no breach of data privacy. And we as a world, not just no breach of data privacy. And we as a world, notjust a country would better understand the sort of pressures and problems that are being forced upon young people by social media platforms. Ian russell, thank you very much for talking to us thank you very much for talking to us this morning on breakfast. Thank you. Matt is by the river clyde in glasgow, where bbc news is taking a closer look at the impact of Climate Change. There is a huge meeting there taking place in november of this year. Matt is right next to the river clyde. Dawn just breaking. A is right next to the river clyde. Dawnjust breaking. A magnificent setting. It certainly is. A very good morning to you. Glasgow is a city that has faced many challenges throughout the year. The river clyde, it is what the city was built on, really, very much related around the river. Just over my shoulder, the river. Just over my shoulder, the crane, a city that was built on engineering, one of four cranes remaining. The challenge is to make the city more and more environmentally friendly and the challenge is to try to be Carbon Neutral by 2030 as we are hearing more from nina later on. At the moment by the river it is a very calm morning. It is dry and sunny. Which eye could see it was the same everywhere, but before we get to the for today everywhere whittaker is a. It is friday, you are probably looking at the weekend, after a wet and windy week it is looking dry and sunny aboutjulia and windy week it is looking dry and sunny about julia across and windy week it is looking dry and sunny aboutjulia across the country. It will be a good deal frosty by night and into the first pa rt frosty by night and into the first part of the morning. To get there, got to get rid of the low pressure that has been with us through much of this week. One weather front has cleared away. That brought the rain. There are still some across the uk at the moment, particularly for england and wales this morning. You may get wet on the way to work. Parts of Northern England and wales in particular where the most persistent trainers. Charlotte dobson around elsewhere. Much of scotla nd dobson around elsewhere. Much of scotland and Northern Ireland waking up scotland and Northern Ireland waking up to scotland and Northern Ireland waking uptoa scotland and Northern Ireland waking up to a tristar showers are dotted around. We will see showers is gather here. Across england and wales the showers come fewer in number through the day and it will turn drier and brighter from number through the day and it will turn drier and brighterfrom the west later. Here winds are not as strong today. Very breezy across the far north of scotland and down towards the west. Temperatures down a little on yesterdays values. Still around 8 10 degrees, higher than we should be at this time of year. Into the evening and overnight, the showers will fade away, some will keep going across scotla nd away, some will keep going across scotland along with a strong breeze. Elsewhere under clearing skies, as we look into tomorrow morning, you can see the blue colours and the temperature chart, the indication of a greater chance of frost for some of you as we go into the start of the day. It will be a cooler start to the weekend, but for many a loss drier. Much of england and wales dry throughout saturday, the chance of a shower towards the isles of silly, maybe north west england, the greater chance in Northern Ireland, and Alzheimer Scotland in the morning. Spells in between. Feeling a little bit chillier. A cold night will follow with light winds and cold skies clear skies. The blue colours across the uk as we go into the start of sunday. It will be a very frosty and cold start to sunbakejust very frosty and cold start to sunba ke just about whatever you very frosty and cold start to sunbake just about whatever you are. A lovely crisp winters day. Light winds for most. Loud in the north of scotla nd winds for most. Loud in the north of scotland later. Maybe the odd shower inshaallah. For most of you it will bea dry inshaallah. For most of you it will be a dry and sunny day. That is how it is looking here by the river in glasgow. Lets look at what is happening with nina in the Science Centre. I will tell you what is happening. We are generating power to make the cars go round. William is furiously. It is just off the track. Never mind. Why do you think it is important to learn about different ways of Generating Energy . If you start off with one and you dont have enough of that source you can find ways or find other sources of energy. Different ways, diversifying. With wind and carbon, look up here. Hannah and the gang are directing the lights of the mirrors up there, and then by using solar power to spin these planes around. It is amazing. Hannah, do you worry about Climate Change, is it something you think about . you worry about Climate Change, is it something you think about . I do worry a little bit, but not too much, because i think we can improve helping the world to, like, planting trees and not to use more cars, many b i cycles, trees and not to use more cars, many bicycles, and i think we can really improve the world. So you are optimistic that if we do our little bit we can make a good change . Yes, eve ryo ne bit we can make a good change . Yes, everyone can make an effort. Good advice there. There are more reasons why we are in glasgow. Notjust because they seem to know a lot about Climate Change. There is another reason for us meeting here. The uk net zero target emissions is. 2050. Glasgow wants to reach a target by 2030. We will not be easy. In glasgow alone in 2017 they produced 2600 tons of carbon, that is about how much per person . 4000. That is about 32,000 short car journeys per person. How are they going to reach the target . They say the future is electric. Thousands of charging points in supermarkets and cinemas, electric and Hydrogen Buses and Public Sector transport systems, and Public Sector transport systems, and simply planting more trees to ca ptu re and simply planting more trees to capture more carbon. Good ideas. Thank you very much. You are very good. They are asking businesses across edinburgh, glasgow, scotland, to play their part and do their bit. We talked to two companies who are doing just that. Im joined by Martin Doogan and jo chidley. Martin is an engineer and joe runs her own beauty company. 2000 cans per minute. You are investing 40 million in sustainability and Carbon Neutrality, wheres money going . Million in sustainability and Carbon Neutrality, wheres money going7m is going into innovative technology. We are introducing anaerobic technology. We are eliminating the use of Single Use Plastics by the end of this year in packaging. You are investing in technology. You know what it is . It is the ability to produce heat from wastewater. We are doing that now. We will capture the c02 are doing that now. We will capture the co2 which is produced by a fermentation process and we will you reuse it in the product. We know what were doing and have a target by 2025 to be Carbon Neutral as a site. Jo, you have been one step ahead of the curve, you do what i a lwa ys ahead of the curve, you do what i always think of at the supermarket, refilling bottles for beauty products. Why are there not more of them . Well, i think having a Reusable Packaging is something that seems to be relatively new, but actually its what we did many years ago and then plastic came onto the scene and it was cheaper, it was flexible, you could created in different colours, but actually we now know that thats not necessarily the best way to package products. So we packaged them in Reusable Packaging. It means when the customer is finished with the product they can send it back to us or they can take it back to store, we will refill it, and they can use it again. A question for both of you, is this consumer driven . Is there a shift in mentality happening, and is it happening quickly enough to drive business . We recognise it is consumer driven. We have a big business, the people in the business are important. It is happening as quickly as we can do it. And we are accelerating our plans at the moment. Ultimately though you have to make money, dont you, and you have to speculate that money to be more environmentally sound. It is a tricky decision. For sustainability you have to take a long term play. Having an aluminium bottle is more expensive than a plastic bottle, but if you know the bottle is going to be used over 100 times then you can offset that within your commercials. And we have been able to prove that with commercial we are profitable, but were scalable on a global level and were scalable on a global level and we have been working with some of bigger Beauty Companies to demonstrate how they could take on some of our practices. Finally, martin, do you feel like legislation will be necessary to make this a fairer Playing Field and that eve ryo ne fairer Playing Field and that everyone is doing it. At the moment it feels like a sticking plaster. We have to lead the way. That is our view. Legislation will follow in this particular area. But we dont have the time to wait. It is a problem. What were hearing from lots of companies is it is down to to essentially mark their own homework and come up with this innovation, which is tricky. David shukman is going to be live on twitter taking your questions just after eight oclock. He will be with me on the sofa a little bit later.

For now the news, travel, and weather wherever you are having your brea kfast wherever you are having your breakfast this morning. Hello. Im asad ahmad. Families of those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire have met the Prime Minister to raise concerns about a potential conflict of interest involving a Senior Member of the inquiry. Benita mehra willjoin the inquiry for its second phase later this month. But a newspaper has revealed that she used to run a charity with links to the American Firm behind the cladding on the tower. 72 people died in 2017 with the cladding widely blamed for the fire spreading. Thousands of children in south west london who receive special Educational Needs support are to have their cases reviewed after Richmond Council received stinging criticisim from the local government ombudsman. It found systemic failures in richmonds support department. The full scale audit is highly unusual, but the council does accept the ombudsmans findings. Mayor of london, sadiq khan has warned against what he calls a fashionable anti london agenda. At the annual Mansion House dinner in the city last night, the mayor warned about neglecting london, as the government moves to level up spending elsewhere in the country. In recent years weve already seen london excluded from several government funding pots and this, i fear, is only set to get worse. Damaging london damages growth and jobs everywhere else in the country too. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Metropolitan line has minor delays southbound from harrow on the hill due to a signal failure this morning. On the trains, Thameslink Services both north and south of st pancras station are running with cancellations and delays following a signal fault near Luton Airport parkway. And theres disruption on southern trains between victoria and London Bridge following a tree on the line. On the roads, in greenwich, the thames tideway one way system is causing westbound tailbacks on trafalgar rd through to maze hill. Now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Hello. Good morning. Get set for a dry, a sunny, and a colder feel to things this weekend. And that colder air will be with us by the end of the day today. But its still a mild start. A day of sunny spells and some showers. Some of the showers are likely to be rather heavy in places, particularly this morning, there could even be a bit of hail around for a while too. But lots of dry weather, some spells of brightness and sunshine. Watch out for some further afternoon showers and and then the colder air filters through from the west. So while were looking at highs of 10 or 11 celsius around about midday, those temperatures are likely to drop off by the end of the afternoon. So it will feel rather chilly. A noticeable breeze, but lighter than it was yesterday. Now were in for a cold night overnight tonight. The skies will clear, the winds will lighten further and the temperatures will drop off. Low enough to get a bit of frost into tomorrow morning. So its a much chillierfeel to things this weekend. There will be a lot of sunshine around. High pressure builds in, its going to stay dry. Another frosty night on saturday into sunday. Watch out for some mist and fog into the start of next week. Va nessa Vanessa Feltz is on bbc radio london for two hours with her breakfast show.

Our top story social Media Companies such as facebook, twitter and instagram should be forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. Proposals by the Royal College of psychiatrists could see Companies Face a new tax, which would Fund Research into how a childs Online Activity affects their Mental Health. Angus crawford reports. She had so much to offer. Molly russells death. And thats gone. Sparked a national outcry. These are companies that count their profits in the billions, and they turn round and say to us that they cant protect our children . Questions about young people and Mental Health. Do you have the power to compel them to do what you think needs to be done . Yes, absolutely. Focussing public anger on the tech giants, and demands for greater regulation. Announced in the queens speech, the governments plans for a new independent regulator and a statutory duty of care. My ministers will develop legislation to improve internet safety for all. But the Royal College of psychiatrists wants tougher action. Social Media Companies are very wealthy, they have a huge amount of knowledge, they can create complex algorithms which hook young people into their platforms, why cant they be using that same amount of energy, knowledge and funding to try and harness the positive benefits, and help try and protect children and young people more . Tech giants should be forced to share data with university researchers, and be taxed on their global turn over. New apps should be designed to be age appropriate. Radical solutions which wont be popular with an industry making billions from the children who use its products. Angus crawford, bbc news. Earlier we spoke to ian russell, who believes social media was partly responsible for his daughter mollys death two years ago. He said the fact so much harmful material remained online means tougher measures are needed. The era of self regulation has not proved to be effective. That is why other measures are needed. If there was a levy that was forced upon them so they had to pay, it would be a tiny amount in terms of their profits but it only needs to provide for good, proper Academic Research with anonymized data so the whole world can better understand the problems driving young people into desperate places. Rebecca long bailey and Emily Thornberry will set out their visions for the labour party, as they launch their rival bids to succeed Jeremy Corbyn as leader. Labour says around 14,700 people have applied to register as temporary supporters so they can vote in the leadership contest. Were joined now from westminster by our Political Correspondent iain watson. Iain, what will be outlined today . Two more enter the fray . Thats right, and both of these candidates have pretty low key campaign so far, but i think it is stepping up a gain of four rebecca long bailey. She is on the left of the party and has the backing of the grassroots Left Wing Group momentum, who are putting their resources behind her campaign. She is having a launch in manchester tonight and is arguing you had to ta ke tonight and is arguing you had to take power away from manchester, people she grew up with felt westminster was 1 million miles people she grew up with felt westminster was1 million miles away so the regents of the uk need to have more powers. But she is also saying, in an attempt to appeal to the left wing membership, that the British State needs to see a Seismic Shift and also she says she would end the gentleman is club in british politics, which might be seen as a jab at her nearest rival, sir keir starmer. Emily thornberry is launching in guildford tonight, near the Council Estate where she grew up. She is the shadow foreign secretary. She is not saying much about policy, she is talking about her personal attributes, saying that to ta ke her personal attributes, saying that to take on borisjohnson you need somebody experienced and battle hardened, she shadowed him as foreign secretary, she would say. You mentioned those who are eligible to vote in this context, people can join as registered supporters, around 180,000 did so in the last leadership contest, it is fewer than 15,000 last time, which could be bad news for the backbench mp Jess Phillips, her whole pitch was to get people to sign up at least temporarily if they were disillusioned with the corbyn era so they could change the direction of they could change the direction of the labour party, but so far not many had taken up the offer. Thank you very much. A british teenager who was found guilty of lying about being raped by a group of men in cyprus has launched an appeal against her conviction. The 19 year old returned to the uk last week after being given a suspended jail sentence for public mischief. She insists that she retracted her original statement after being put under pressure by police. Thousands of people will be asked to share their experiences of Sexual Harassment, which will help shape new laws in the workplace and strengethen protections for employees. The Equalities Office says 12,000 people will be surveyed, which will give an indication as to how widespread the problem is and will help draft a new code of practice for businesses. I have suffered Sexual Harassment. Im not going to be drawn on the details, because im not going to be defined by the grubby behaviour of the men that behaved like that towards me, but the huge benefit of this survey is that its anonymous, its confidential, so people can share their stories in a way that they can feel safe, that the data is just going to be used to help us with policy, and it will not be revealed to anyone else. Ive worked in many workplaces and i suspect, like many people, ive seen a range of behaviours. Some were the sort of behaviours that you cannot quite brush off, but you sort of take as part of grown up and adult life, but some behaviours that are actually quite uncomfortable, and did upset me. Thousands of people who have raised money for big ben to chime when the uk leaves the eu at the end of the month, look set to be disappointed. Nearly £150,000 has been donated to ensure the bell is in working order, but the house of commons authorities, which manage the parliamentary estate, says it wont accept the money. Mps backing the appeal say the Prime Minister shouldnt back out now. Two pedestrians had a lucky escape when a building collapsed in the us capital, washington dc, yesterday. You can see them walking across the pedestrian crossing, yesterday. But where they just work, pedestrian crossing, yesterday. But where theyjust work, the building. In. Ip coincidence the fire truck is just around the corner. You just get a sense of how close they were to something pitiable. By coincidence the fire truck was just around the corner. That is quite fortuitous a duet of Frank Sinatras my way sung by 83 year old margaret, who has dementia, and her care worker is in the top 20 of the download charts. When i bit off more than i could chew. This heartwarming duet was performed at their Christmas Party and is currently sitting above ed sheeran and james blunt in the itunes pop chart. Care workerjamie lee morley told us earlier that any money raised will be donated to the Alzheimers Society and dementia uk. From day one, she was always singing, always loving music, and obviously she is living with dementia, so you kind of know, you see things with people, what they obviously they take too more. So she was always singling, and i used to do singing part time, so, me being me, imjust singing along with her, you know, frank sinatra, Elvis Presley all the kind of classics, but yeah, shes absolutely amazing. Her character isjust Something Else, and im sure if you met her you would feel the exact same as anybody else does. Jamie has had quite an impact on people. He loves to sing, that is the thing, and around the home where margaret is, she was always singing. He likes singing too, so he embraced it. You can tell they have a lovely relationship, he has described her as an angel. Lots of you have been getting in touch to say how much you enjoyed margaret and jamies performance. On twitter patsy said jamie was brilliant the world needs more people like that young man denise also tweeted to say that has so cheered me up. What a great thing to do, be proud of yourself, jamie jo sent us this video of her 87 year old mum, bronwen, who had dementia and has sadly passed away, singing her own rendition of long way to tipperary. Its a long way to tipperary. Its a long way to tipperary. To its a long way to tipperary. To the inaudible tells me so. That is a lovely memory for that family, a lovely memory. Lots of people know this already, but what is evident is the benefits of singing, these people we had spoken about with dimension or whatever, it can have a real impact. Really kind of jo whatever, it can have a real impact. Really kind ofjo to share her memories of her mum. If you are wondering where matt is, he is in glasgow this morning. The bbc is starting a year of working up to the big Climate Change summit that will happen in glasgow in november so he will be coming from their later with the weather, as will nina. An epidemic of our time thats how the former head of the british army, general lord dannatt, has described the number of veterans taking their own lives. There are currently no official records however, campaigners say at least 73 ex personnel died last year. The ministry of defence has now commissioned two studies to collect information on why so many lives are being cut short. Last year, the government announced the mp Johnny Mercer, himself a former soldier, would take up the new role of veterans minister, with the aim to provide life long support to military personnel. Werejoined now byjojukes whose husband, dave, took his own life, and also by dan arnold, who is a veteran and now works to support other former soldiers in crisis. Good morning to you both. Joining us from dorset is alicia davis her husband jamie was found dead at the weekend. Hed been battling with post Traumatic Stress disorder after serving in afghanistan. Alicia, very good morning to you. The first thing i would like to say, this is so raw for you. Jamie was found just on saturday, so i want to say that for everyone listening to this, they will understand that this is not easy for you and has only just happened, but i know you are very keen to talk about this in order that others may benefit. So could you start by telling us a bit aboutjamie . Could you start by telling us a bit about jamie . Well, jamie, if you speak to anybody that knew him, he was an absolute. He was a big teddy bear. He would help anybody that came knocking on our door. Just look at the pictures. He is always smiling. The best way i can explain him is that he was like robin williams, he would go out of his way to make anybody smile, anybody laugh, but he would never show his pain. He would never. Put himself before anybody. It was always putting everybody before himself. He was always there when i needed him. Sorry. You can take as much time as you like. Would you like a moment or are you ok to carry on . You like. Would you like a moment or are you 0k to carry on . you like. Would you like a moment or are you 0k to carry on . I am 0k to carry on. If this. As much as it hurts me to talk about it, if it gets one person to pick up the phone, one wife, one husband, one brother, sister to pick up the phone to say, please, can you help me with my loved one, it is worth all the paini my loved one, it is worth all the pain i am feeling right now talking about it, it really is. It is such a strong thing, strong message that needs to be put out there. It is. Yeah, it is hard to talk about. If it saves a lie. Let me ask you a couple of things. It is so lovely to hear you talking about the wonderful things about his character, i think everybody will get a sense of the man you are talking about and the generosity of spirit, but what you know now, he had been struggling for a long time. I dont know what your reflections were on how hard that was for him . Can you tell us a little bit about that . Everybody says that the war is out there, they bring it back with them. You. The stuff that he kept seeing and feeling throughout the day, when he fell asleep, it brought it all back. There was no escape. No escape for him at all. He would scream and shoutin him at all. He would scream and shout in his sleep, he would yell orders, he would yell, man down, man down you imagine being in a house, sitting next to your husband and you are hearing him shout things like that. My oldest boy, bless him, he has autism and does not sleep well at night and he would hear those things, he would hear his daddy yelling, he would hear his study crying in his sleep. An 11 year old hearing about and seeing the pain in him. People might have seen it in the newspapers where we would go out, a fire alarm would go off and he would hit the ground. He would walk with his back to corners. He would be constantly on the guard. When he let that down, its something let a little firecracker that little Children Play with, when they hit the floor, he would insta ntly they hit the floor, he would instantly spin around as if he was holding a gun in his hand. It was a nightmare he was reliving over and over again. And these brave men, these brave women that are out there, the stuff that they must see, there, the stuff that they must see, the stuff they must go through, i can only imagine the horrible things they must be thinking when they get back. The horrible nightmares they are reliving. Forjamie, he had massive survivors guilt, huge, and every time we did something that makes him happy, instantly he would almost punish himself for feeling so bad about being happy. And he was just. Because he cared so much about others, he just wanted to. Im sorry, itsjust about others, he just wanted to. Im sorry, its just watching about others, he just wanted to. Im sorry, itsjust watching him go through that, every single day and reliving that pain over and over again. It isjust so hard watching, andi again. It isjust so hard watching, and i have friends out there whose partners are going to the same thing right now and they are trying to get the help, they are trying to do what they can. I read in the times where somebody said that the nhs are dealing with it. Why are the nhs dealing with it. Why are the nhs dealing with it. Why are the nhs dealing with it . They shouldnt have too. It should be the army under government combining two prevented from getting this far. There are people on waiting lists to sort out their ptsd, there are people that have had to pay private, that i know, i am friends with, to get that help. What i would like to do, if i may, alicia, we are happy for you. I know you had so much to say, and ifi i know you had so much to say, and if i may say so, you are being so eloquent in such a difficult time. Ifi eloquent in such a difficult time. If i may ask you to hold on for a minute and we can come back to you, i know there are two people in the studio who know much better than most people some of what you are going through. Stay with us for a moment, we will come back to you. So powerful what alicia is saying and going through. Dan arlen dan arnold is a veteran who works to support former soldiers in crisis, andjo, your support former soldiers in crisis, and jo, your husband dan, 14 months ago, he took his own life. So you we re ago, he took his own life. So you were in exactly the same position 14 months ago. Firstly, i am so sorry that you have had 14 months of pain, i cant even begin to understand how you feel. When you hear alicia talk like this and see what she is going through, how does that make you feel . It takes me back to the first couple of days, waiting for it all, still sinking in, it takes a long time to sink in. In the long term, it leaves the families struggling me ntally it leaves the families struggling mentally from not only living with someone with ptsd, but when they ta ke someone with ptsd, but when they take their life, the impact of all of that on the families is astronomical. When i was listening to alicia talk, this must be so familiar, he never showed his pain, he was afraid to ask for help, he would punish himself orfeel bad he was afraid to ask for help, he would punish himself or feel bad for being happy, he was living in pain every day. I spoke to you while you we re every day. I spoke to you while you were talking and you set this all feels very familiar. Is there anything you would perhaps say to alicia now in terms of how she can cope . Alicia, iam alicia now in terms of how she can cope . Alicia, i am sure you can hear jo in the studio . Ijust want cope . Alicia, i am sure you can hear jo in the studio . I just want to commend alicia for speaking out so soon afterjamies death. I wish more families would speak out and have the courage, because i think it is very easy to say it is a one off or it is only one person that has experienced this. So many people dont speak out and dont let the full story be known to everyone. I think if it was known to everyone and everyone said this has happened to me, this is happening to my friend, you could not ignore the situation we are currently in. What will be the biggest challenge for alicia, do you think . You have had 14 months to deal with things . found the inquest very difficult, the interim between when he died at the interim between when he died at the inquest, ithink the interim between when he died at the inquest, i think i went into denial. Then the inquest, because it lasted a week and it was an article two inquest. What does that mean . If you are in the care of a public body and they know there was a possible risk of you giant, they must do everything within their power to stop that from happening, and in daves case the currents ruling was that it did not happen, he was under complex Mental Health, he was under the Home Treatment crisis team and all of them did not actually put anything in place to stop him from taking his life. Regulation 28 was issued afterwards, which is lodged with the chief coroner, which makes them have to accounts for why they didnt do these things and what they will put in place following that. Dan, i have seen you nodding through so much of what we have heard this morning, you are yourself an army vetera n. Morning, you are yourself an army veteran. You try and help people and very desperate circumstances, possibly in the run up to something terrible happening . possibly in the run up to something terrible happening . I can draw lots of parallels to my own experiences with ptsd, and i cannot commend these two women enough to use that stories of grief and pain to raise the profile of veteran suicide and Mental Health within the armed forces. We have been campaigning for a long time and people before us have been campaigning, i recognise that the Current Administration have putJohnny Mercer in that the Current Administration have put Johnny Mercer in a post and they had said they will look into it and reform it, they have put a ten year timescale on this. To put that in context, the current rate of armed forces suicides, if it takes the company ten years to bring a reform, we will see numbers in excess of iraq and afghanistan combat deaths exceeded in that ten years. One of the things you are campaigning for its poor current is to record the death, when they record the death, to motor that they are veterans wallet figures who are campaigning for is full the coroner, when they record the death. If a soldier took his life tomorrow, he would be recorded as a carpenter, an it consultant, it is not taken into account the military observers might have influenced this. That is due to the ministry ofjustice, the ministry of defence. Jo, do you think that is because of a tip you and your resistance to recognise a problem within the forces . Because of a taboo . I was fortunate in the coroner that i had, she was very aware of the veterans Mental Health and recorded daves occupation as a military armed forces veteran. I believe he is the first one that has had that on his death certificate, but it is not routine. You have to ask the coroner and the coroner has to come with you do that. I do believe they should be recorded, however the amount of time it takes for an inquest happen, that will not still be live data so it will not still be live data so it will not still be live data so it will not inform them that this month we have this many veterans in crisis so we we have this many veterans in crisis so we need to put more money in place now. Ifeel so we need to put more money in place now. I feel it is important going forward, we were talking about how the census will be an important pa rt of how the census will be an important part of that. If i may, how the census will be an important part of that. If may, i would quite like to go back to alicia. I know you are listening on the conversation, something everybody is talking about a lot is what help is available, and if it is available, how . Did you, yourfamily, jamie, seek help, and what did you receive . Jamie wasa seek help, and what did you receive . Jamie was a stubborn man, i will admit. When he realised he really did need help we went to the doctor, he was referred to the nhs and the lady he went to see, he said that she was not able to cope with half the stuff he was saying. She didnt really understand it. It is difficult for these veterans and serving personnel to actually talk about these things to people that have not been through it themselves, which is why pretty much most of the contact he tried making its going through all these organisations that we re through all these organisations that were started up by ex service people. The gentleman he was satisfied, and amazing outpouring of stuff that he is doing. Why is it ex Service Personnel that are doing it . Why is it not within the army . Just one of the things that happen tojamie, just one of the things that happen to jamie, they should have instantly gone, ok, you need to go through this help whether you like it or not. They didnt even recognise it. Getting the help, i actually looked up getting the help, i actually looked up how many Service Personnel have lost the lives and it said that in afghanistan there were 454 personnel, men and women that lost their lives, but by suicide, from 1999 to 2018 there were 310 suicides outside of the army. All i can say is we have huge respect for you, your composure and how you are talking in the immediate aftermath of such a terrible thing happening. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you, jo and dan as well, good luck with the work you are doing. The veterans ministerJohnny Mercer has told us that hes determined to tackle this issue and make sure veterans know where they can turn to in times of need. If you or someone you know is feeling emotionally distressed, you can find details of organisations that offer help and support at the bbc action line. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Most of the showers move their way from west to east as the day goes on. You can see the showers by lunchtime round central area, moving to eastern parts, sunshine behind that, and a few bits of rain moving through a central and southern scotla nd through a central and southern scotland and Northern Ireland as the day goes on. Showers in the far north west, blustery winds here, maximum temperatures round about seven to nine, maybe 11 degrees in the far east. Tonight there will be a few more showers to come, particularly to the north west, bit of wintriness over the higher ground, a cold night, a widespread frost into saturday morning, temperatures generally down to freezing if not below. But for the weekend, plenty of dry, plenty of sunny weather, this big air of High Pressure develops across the uk, keeping things settled. That is all from me. Bye.
