In nhs history. As millions of households get to grips with the return of Online Schooling, we look at efforts to help families without the laptops and computers they need to learn.

Good morning. Manchester city are heading back to wembley. Theyre through to a Fourth League cup final in row, after beating city rivals Manchester United. Good morning. We have got a band of rain, sleet and snow moving out of southern scotla nd and snow moving out of southern scotland and ireland into Northern England and north wales through the day. Ahead of it, some ice and freezing fog. Behind it, further win three showers and the risk of ice roles. Good morning. Its thursday, january 7th. Our top story. Four people have died in violent clashes at the heart of americas democracy, where congress had been meeting to approve the results of the us president ial election. Donald Trump Supporters stormed the us congress building, one woman was shot and three other people had what are described as medical emergencies. More than 50 people were arrested and 14 Police Officers were injured. Our washington correspondent, lebo diseko, is inside the Capitol Building now. Good morning. It is a camera scene this morning. This began with a protest a nd this morning. This began with a protest and then a number of people storming the building. Tell us more . Yeah, iwas storming the building. Tell us more . Yeah, i was actually standing at this very spot during a live on air when we saw policemen coming in and they said we needed to move and shelter away from where we were. We we re shelter away from where we were. We were moved into a tunnel. It wasnt quite clear what was going on. But then we heard that the Capitol Building had been breached. This happened shortly after donald trump had givena happened shortly after donald trump had given a speech in which he had encouraged his supporters to come out from outside the white house up the road to the Capitol Building and essentially make their protest heard. They certainly did that. But not ina heard. They certainly did that. But not in a way anyone could have really predicted or expected. Really quite shocking scenes. We saw tear gas employed, having to be employed, in the Capitol Building. This is the seat of democracy in america. We saw demonstrators jumping on the platforms on the floor of congress. A demonstrator that broke into democratic leader of the house of house of representatives Nancy Pelosis office, putting his feet on her table. People smashing windows. Incredibly scary scenes. We, by that time, had moved to a cafeteria where we we re time, had moved to a cafeteria where we were being kept along with other people. The whole building was unlocked and at that point. And you could hear audible gasps at the beginning when people saw these things happening outside the building. We were watching them on tv as they were taking place. As the hours ticked by we really were stunned by what was going on. It really has been quite shocking in terms of what has taken place. Four people have died today. In amongst the images we are seeing this morning there are some images from within the chamber which showed guns being drawn, presumably by the Police Inside as the protesters are coming into the building, and we see people abseiling, climbing down the inside of the chamber . Yeah. There is quite a striking photo of two Security Officers holding the guns, trying to stop people breaking into the chamber, breaking onto the floor. A couple of the women i was speaking to when we were watching what was happening from inside the cafeteria actually work on the floor of the house. They were saying they are not even allowed to touch those desks. They were shocked, appalled and quite hard by the level of disrespect, they said, for this seat of democracy in the United States. I spoke to somebody else who works for a memberof the spoke to somebody else who works for a member of the house of representatives. He said he had to help him take cover. And he accused donald trump of really attacking the democracy of his country. You describe the very shocking scenes. What happened subsequently was, of course, that those people who had been working there and voting and going through the democratic process, took cover. Take Us Democratic process, took cover. Take us through the events that unfolded later, because the process is carried on . Yeah. It was really interesting hearing the reactions to what was happening. At first, donald trump are put out some quite defiant tweets that were taken down by twitter. We then had this very stern address from joe biden, the president elect, saying this was an attack on everything that is american, essentially. But we also then started to have republicans, everybody from former president George W Bush to even mike pence and allies like mike pompeo, saying that what had happened was outrageous, was not american and should not have happened at all. You had this moment when nancy pelosi, who leads the democrats in the house, and again other republicans said, look, we are going to get this job done, other republicans said, look, we are going to get thisjob done, the demonstrators, protesters, rioters, as they really were, ive tried to stop us doing ourjob and we are not going to have it. Mitch mcconnell, the lead senator for the republicans, called the protesters oii republicans, called the protesters on hinged and said they had tried to essentially subvert democracy. And he wasnt going to have it. The response they have had is to continue with the job at hand. They have continued with the process. They are determined to finish the certification process this evening. There have been a couple of objections put forward, only one where there was a break so they could discuss it. They have the requisite support for that in both chambers. We are hearing from one agency that senators have decided not to appalled that objection. Obviously it doesnt hold because you need both houses to do that. You mentioned the comments by donald trump. That was on his twitter account. His twitter account has now been closed down. We have had no comment from him. Has there been any other statement from the president . Nothing, really. There was video taped in the white house, i think it was, where he said that he finally told his protesters to go home. But also said that this is what happened, kind of repeating the claims we heard, incorrect claims, claims we heard, incorrect claims, claims there is no evidence of, of this being a fraudulent election, kind of implying that his supporters we re kind of implying that his supporters were pushed to this. That is something that has been pretty strongly rebutted by his own party. The republicans chief of Communications Centre faces domestic terrorism, what happened. Its difficult see where donald trump, and it must be frustrating to him not to be able to speak to his audience, but certainly his party is making his feelings clear. Thank you very much. Borisjohnson hasjoined politicians from around the world in condemning the disgraceful scenes of rioters in washington dc. In a tweet, the Prime Minister called for a peaceful and orderly transfer of power. Labour leader keir starmer described the violent protests as a direct attack on democracy, and scotlands first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, called the events utterly horrifying. Nine minutes past six. The Oxford Astrazeneca vaccine is being rolled out to general practices in england for the first time today. So far, all the jabs have been administered in hospitals. Now the programme is due to be expanded to hundreds of Community Based sites over the next few weeks. Our Health Correspondent, Dominic Hughes, has more. Already more than a Million People have received their first vaccinations against the coronavirus. But the target of reaching 13 million of the most vulnerable by february, is going to be tough to hit. Unlike the Pfizer Vaccine, which needs to be stored at ultra low temperatures, the oxford jab can be kept in regularfridges that gp surgery has. Its also much easier to move, and so better suited for use in care homes and those who cant leave the house. Gps say theyre ready to start administering the jab, despite some frustrations over supply. I just think we need some explanations. Why has there been this hold up . Why are some practices getting it, and others like mine not being given the vaccine . Why doesnt someone tell us what is going on . In england, seven big Vaccination Centres are opening. Over the next week, jabs will become available in more than 200 gp surgeries and hospitals, as well as through a pilot scheme involving local pharmacies. Amid the grim news of rising infections, the pressures on hospitals, and a growing death toll, this is another ray of hope for the coming months. Dominic hughes, bbc news. The weekly clap for carers that began during the first lockdown is to return tonight, under the new name of clap for heroes. Its aimed at recognising carers, teachers, home schooling parents, and all frontline workers. The idea of clapping and banging pots from doorsteps originally began as a one off to support nhs staff, three days after the uk went into lockdown for the first time. So those are the images from back in march. Which seems like a very long time ago. Mind you, time is all kind ofa time ago. Mind you, time is all kind of a bit warped, i think at the moment. 11 minutes past six. Lets talk to carol, find out what is happening. Happy new year. I havent had a chance to say that to you. Thank you, naga. Happy new year to you and charlie as well. And you if it is the first time youre seeing us it is the first time youre seeing us since then. We have a lot of weather today. We start with met Office Weather warnings for today, tonight and tomorrow for ice and for snow. We will not all see some snow but there is the potential for some disruptive snow in the forecast, particularly tonight. As well as that we also have some freezing fog patches. If we start off in the south of england this morning, here we do have some fog, particularly the midlands. That extends into north west england, some of it is freezing fog. There is the risk of ice. The temperature at the moment 8. Ice. The temperature at the moment 8. Mostly sleet and snow moving through Northern Ireland and southern scotland. On the other side of that there is the risk of ice. Not as cold a start to the day in the islands as it was yesterday, but we do have showers, and increasingly through the day you will find it will turn wintry, even down to lower levels. We have got a strong wind developing as well. Meanwhile, our band of sleet and snow pushes into words in Northern England and also North West Wales. We could see a further five centimetres of the pennines. We will see some snow at lower levels as well. Some of the fog will be slow to lift, some will linger all day. Where it does it will take back the temperatures. As we head into the evening and overnight, we run into a complication with the weather. That is because we have an area of low pressure in the north sea. We have a trough across the north of scotland. That combination looks like it is going to slog this weather front down. So by now we have the sequence of what we are expecting to happen tonight. We are looking at least now piping up tonight. We are looking at least now piping up as a result of all the things ive just mentioned, piping up as a result of all the things ivejust mentioned, crossed the north of ingot. We could see another ten centimetres of snow across the pennines. Thats no getting on across north wales. By the end of the night it looks like it is going to head down towards the midlands, particularly the north West Midlands, and also part of wales. Behind it there will be clear skies. Still windy, still wintry showers. And once again we will see some mist and fog patches forming, some mist and fog patches forming, some of which will be freezing. These are the overnight lows. The risk of ice again tonight. There is going to be some fog. They will be some lying snow. And there will be treacherous conditions if you are driving, particularly so across the Trans Pennine driving, particularly so across the tra ns pennine routes. Driving, particularly so across the Trans Pennine routes. A lot going on with the weather. I will take you further into the forecast in on with the weather. I will take you further into the forecast in half on with the weather. I will take you further into the forecast in half an hour. Thank you very much. See you later on. Lets take a look at todays papers. Violent protests at the Capitol Building in washington dominate the front pages. Anarchy in the us is the headline on the metro. The times reports that protesters stormed the heart of american democracy. Another of those extraordinary images. Guns draw. It says they overran police, who drew their guns to defend the house, as democrats and republicans pulled on gas masks and sheltered under desks. These two striking pictures of the Capitol Building feature on one of the most popular tweets of the morning. From the us Political Programme the 11th hour, it says day one vs day 1,448. Obviously the day of President Trump oi obviously the day of President Trump or inauguration, comparing it to what has happened yesterday. Away from the us, the sun carries a warning to the Prime Minister borisjohnson to stop dithering over the vaccination programme. We will have more than that this morning, of course, added as it is rolled out to gp surgeries. Mps and medics have said mrjohnson must vaccinate around the clock in order to hit three million jabs a week. Got anything on the inside . You start. 0k. Got anything on the inside . You start. Ok. I was looking got anything on the inside . You start. 0k. Iwas looking at got anything on the inside . You start. Ok. I was looking at the weather forecast. It is cold. Start. Ok. I was looking at the weatherforecast. It is cold. Quite tricky to get out there if you are a one person but it is good to get out and get fresher. I love this story. This is simon warren. What you cant see, well you may be able to see it at the moment, there is a picture here. It is a picture of simon warrens internet rutto. The thing that helps. What is it about this story . What is the thing that puts the wi fi out . Story . What is the thing that puts the wifi out . The wifi rotor . It spreads good news around the house so everybody can access the internet. The reason simon has taken this out on a walk is because he said to his children, come on, we are all going out for a walk. He just said, do you know what, enough. They wanted to sit down and play video games or go on the internet. Hejust said, fine. So instead of taking the kids out, he took the wi fi rotor out to the Peak District and said, if you dont get fresher, ill take that. He thought they would be furious when he got back home and they would be moody. No. When he came home they must have felt a bit guilty, he says. They ended up tidying the house, putting the washing away, were busy playing monopoly together and didnt fall out. It worked out. I can imagine pa rents out. It worked out. I can imagine parents around the country thinking, doi parents around the country thinking, do i dare take it out . The downside is if you take it out and re plug it, you have to rewire the whole thing and it may not work. It is tricky. Got to switch it on and off. Things can go wrong. In my limited experience 17 minutes past six. Lets go back to our main story. Us senators were given gas masks and told to take shelter, after hundreds of Trump Supporters stormed the Capitol Building to protest againstjoe bidens election win. Rioters were heard shouting, we want trump, as they invaded one of the most secure buildings in the world. Journalist richard hall was caught up in the violence. We can speak to him now. Richard, good of you to talk to us this morning on breakfast. What was it like, where were you, what were you seeing . It was a crazy day, as you seeing . It was a crazy day, as you can imagine. I started off the day watching donald trump or speech, where this is where this all started. It was a speech he has given many times before. He has told the same lies and conspiracy theories, that the election had been stolen. But this time, the difference this time was that he was giving the speech down the road from the senate, where they were due to verify joe the senate, where they were due to verinyoe bidens the senate, where they were due to verify Joe Bidens Electoral College victory. He gave instructions, almost. Then these tens of thousands of people, after hearing donald trump speak, even while he was speaking, started marching towards the Capitol Building and that is when the trouble started. So, a lot of little crowds gathering. Did you feel safe . Well, it was one of the First Time Since ive been in america that i kind of didnt want to identify myself as a journalist. Ijust kind of wondered with the protesters, not interviewing people, just following where they went. We we nt just following where they went. We went to the bottom of the steps of the Capitol Building, the huge grand building. There were scuffles between id say a few dozen protesters and the police. Then a few of them managed to break through near the scaffolding set up for a joe bidens inauguration. They broke through eventually and got through to the building. What with the crowds calling for . What were they asking for it . All sorts of things. They were shouting usa, usa. America is not for sale. Some called for a gallows for nancy pelosi. It was a strange mix. Some people were dressed in military fatigues, kind of behaving as if this was the start of behaving as if this was the start ofa of behaving as if this was the start of a civil war. There were families there acting as if this was a sunday day out and they were taking selfies. It was a strange mix. What did they think was their mandate . When you are talking to them, because obviously you are merging in with the protesters, did they feel they have been told to go there . |j didnt they have been told to go there . didnt really get the sense that the direct instruction. It wasjust didnt really get the sense that the direct instruction. It was just they felt this great injustice had been done to them. Because that is what they have been told since the election. They felt their country was being taken away from them, that the election was stolen, that communists were taking over and they needed to do something about it. Its this alternate reality that has been created for them by donald trump and his supporters. He described the scene when you got there. In terms of a timeline, how quickly they did escalate from crowds outside to view them actually storming the building, going through the front entrance . I dont know what was going on in the other side of the building, but where i was, took about an hour of low level clashes. There was some tear gas, but not much. There was one line of police stopping them from piling in. And there were classes for about an hour. They managed to push through. Once the dam had broken, that was it, they couldnt control them. We have had a very sad news that four people have died. Do you know in what circumstances . We understand that one woman was shot and three died from a different situation. Do you know any more details . No, they just say three other people have died. They have no details. The one woman was shot as a group were trying to enter one of the rooms in the building. There is a video of it and it is tragic. We should explain to our viewers here that the feeling of thread you said you felt, and the reason you try to merge and is one of the protesters, how has the feeling, what is the feeling been like against the media and what has driven that, in your opinion . You just have to read the t shirts some of the people are wearing, t shirts saying hang journalist. Someone scratched inside the building, killing media. This has been a theme over the past four years. Donald trump has made an enemy of the press because they reported things he didnt like. I have never seen at this kind of role. Draw. They link the media with this rigged election and the idea the country has been stolen from them. Today is one of the first time i have felt that things might have got out of control. Richard, interesting to talk to you. Glad you are safe. Richard hall, journalist for the independent. From cancelled exams, to trying to find childcare, the last minute decision to close schools to most pupils has had lots of unintended consequences. It could also lead to millions of meals being thrown out, as schools cancel or change orders they no longer need. Ninas been looking into this for us. Good morning everyone. There are two issues at play. The vast amount of waste, but also the businesses that both this food and had those big contracts with schools, that have now been cancelled. Good morning. Mondays decision not to fully reopen schools came after a sunday assurance that schools would fully open. And its that last minute timing which is so important here. Its estimated that three Million School meals are served in england every day. Much of that is perishable so, fresh orfrozen. Schools tend to order their food about a week in advance, so those freezers were already loaded at the weekend. Some of those meals will go to Vulnerable Children and the kids of key workers. But that still means a huge amount of waste. As many as 15 million meals could have gone uneaten by the late call on this. One School Governor in lancashire said he had to ditch all 200 meals because they werent ready to open at all tuesday. We know that some people are struggling to feed their families at the moment. So you might be asking why this food isnt going to food banks or directly to those in need . Well, food banks and charities dont have the freezer space to take all the meals. Delivering to families, or asking them to collect, demands a lot of resources and, of course, risks a covid spread. It comes down to waste. Its starting already and are expected to mmp starting already and are expected to ramp up through the week. Generally you collect around 3000 schools are in the uk, probably 5000 collections from all the schools. This food waste is equal to a years worth of waste is equal to a years worth of waste for most of the schools. The food is perishable. A lot of the food is perishable. A lot of the food banks, the vast majority, only ta ke food banks, the vast majority, only take nonperishable goods. And these are generally community led, run out of the back of a church hall with a few shelves. They may have a fridge for america but that is the capacity. This food needs to be stored in the correct conditions, so it is not going to enter the food banks. That is the waste side. This isntjust a problem for schools of course. Wholesalers also have tonnes of food ready to be sent to schools who cancelled or changed their orders on tuesday morning. We spoke to one company, brakes, who told us they worked through the night monday, to get as much food as they could to local Community Groups and charities, but that waste was going to be inevitable. All of this food was destined for schools across the north, but it is now sat in a warehouse in bury. The owner is hoping to resell it this week but, if he cant, he will be forced to give it away. That means no waste, of course but no profit either. In fact, the federation of wholesale distributors says millions of pounds will have been lost by companies that will be getting no direct support from the government, unlike many of their Hospitality Industry customers who were promised fresh cash this week. The government told us these companies were able to access the furlough scheme, and that the budget in march would be designed to help support businesses and jobs. The Education Department has said schools are still providing meals to some pupils and should work with caterers to avoid waste. It isa it is a bit like we were talking about yesterday with cancelled holidays. Everybody understands why these measures have been introduced, but the Ripple Effect are massive. Businesses have been saying they wa nt businesses have been saying they want one of two things. Either certainty or support if they cant have certainty. They are getting neither at the minute. That is the frustration. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london. Im Victoria Hollins. The excel centre in east london has been announced as one of seven new mass Covid Vaccination hubs across england. Expected to be staffed by the nhs and volunteers, operations will Begin Next Week in a bid to meet the governments target of vaccinating 11 Million People in the uk by february. Plans to turn gatwick airports emergency runway into a second runway for flights have taken a step forward. The airport owners have agreed to fund the next stage of the planning application, with a full consultation due in the summer. They say its vital for economic recovery and will create jobs. But campaigners say the move is callous, and ignores wishes of People Living nearby. A Cancer Service across surrey has had to adapt how they deliver treatment to patients due to the pandemic. The st lukes Cancer Centre at the Royal Surrey Hospital has built this drive through pharmacy where patients can get their medication so they can keep a social distance. Theyve also extended a Home Delivery service. The public are also being urged to seek help if they have any health concnerns. Its absolutely paramount. If any patient, or any member of our community, has got any concerns around symptoms that they are seeing that are unusualfor them, they must seek immediate help. 0ur gp services are there and ready to support that, as are our hospital teams in terms of being referred in for support and further tests. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube northern line has minor delays and theres no service on london 0verground between gospel 0ak and Upper Holloway. 0n the m25, two lanes are blocked clockwise towards the clacket Lane Services following a collision. Traffic is slow but moving for about half a mile on the approach in bexleyheath, the a2 East Rochester way is down to one lane in both directions at the danson interchange, with london bound delays back to hall place now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Good morning. A cold and frosty start to the day with temperatures slightly below freezing. Watch out for a few icy stretches towards eastern Home Counties and where we saw the showers yesterday. Its quite a murky start to the morning with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Further west, with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Furtherwest, if with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Further west, if few mist and fog patches and where the fog doesnt play all day, which is a possibility, temperatures wont rise above freezing otherwise highs of one or 2 degrees but it will stay dry with light winds and quite a lot of cloud and certainly feeling very chilly and not too much on the way of brightness at all. Overnight, we do the whole thing over again but it will probably feel colder and over around but it will probably feel colder and overg round around but it will probably feel colder and overground overnight lows of around one or two celsius and mistand lows of around one or two celsius and mist and fog patches around will keep on friday and it will feel cold again but should be dry and as we head into the weekend we will keep those cold, frosty nights. There should be sunshine around on saturday, a little cloudy on sunday and temperatures start to improve. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Naga Munchetty and charlie stayt. Coming up on breakfast this morning. With lockdown in place across the uk, Grassroots Team sports are banned. Well be finding out why some leading sports figures are worried about the impact on young children. Bbc sounds is responsible for discovering talent like adele, 50 cent and ellie goulding. Well be talking to this years winner rapper pa salieu just before 9 oclock. And if you still havent taken down your christmas decorations, then dont. Well be hearing why English Heritage want us to leave them up till february to help bring cheer in the dark winter months. With schools closed to most children across the uk once more the challenges faced by disadvantaged pupils, who dont have acces to the equipment they need, have reappeared. Fiona lamdin has been finding out how two families are coping with Remote Learning with limited devices at home. This devices at home. Family in bristol, home schooling this family in bristol, home schooling with no computer during the first lockdown was very hard. It got to a point that i was feeling depressed. Ifelt scared hard. It got to a point that i was feeling depressed. I felt scared and i was worried, notjust for myself, but my children as well, because we had not enough power on the phone, but how could four people be using one phone to do schoolwork . It was a nightmare. Are you worried that your children will fall behind this time . I am, honestly. Ifi could get a laptop for my children, i would be over the moon, honestly. And here is the holgate family in swindon as they face the latest lockdown. We met them six months ago, when they we re met them six months ago, when they were home schooling six children on one device. In the last lockdown i just had my mums phone and all of my siblings got to go first to do their homework and i had to wait until bedtime to get my hour slot. So that was really ha rd. Bedtime to get my hour slot. So that was really hard. But a view out donated a tablet, so psion and her siblings are hoping they wont fall behind this time. They will have an hour slot on two devices, and it will be much easier for me to do my homework without all of them hassling and fighting. There is a lot less arguing for the devices, because kids are impatient, arent they . And for many families, accessing Online Schoolwork is just not possible. And so at this primary in somerset, a drive through, but instead of fast food, the school is dishing up Home Learning packs. The children have got devices, really strong broadband connections and did really well in the last lockdown. They didnt really fall behind at all. The children that did not have those devices fell behind by approximately six months. Im one of those was 14 year old charlie. When we met him in the summer he was struggling and only had a phone. And then a viewer donated a laptop. My exams were better than i expected. What do you put that down to . exams were better than i expected. What do you put that down to . If it wasnt for the laptop, it wouldnt have happened. It made a massive impact on my future, like if i was going for an apprenticeship or career. Its a life changer and a game changer. Yeah. Back in bristol we we re game changer. Yeah. Back in bristol we were still filming with the family when one of the teachers arrived with a laptop for them to follow. Borrow. Your laptop isjust here if you want to grab it. Oh, my goodness. The government say they are committed to giving out million devices to help throughout the pandemic. For edwina and her family, they think this one is a miracle. Thank you so very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. If you have a laptop or tablet that you want to donate then please go to bbc. Co. Uk makeadifference where you can find details of charities who will help get them safely wiped and sent to the children that need them most. With School Closures and the latest vaccine roll out theres plenty to talk about with our gp. Dr zoe norrisjoins us now. Good morning to you. How are you . Really tired. People absolutely appreciate that you along with your collea g u es appreciate that you along with your colleagues in the nhs are working incredibly hard, so i say it upfront, thank you for the work you are doing. Today is a very important day. Will you be getting any of the new Oxford Astrazeneca vaccine which is being rolled out to gps today . Yes, we will. We are getting a delivery that has already been allocated and we will be vaccinating our care homes, and that will start straightaway and be done over the next few days, so we will try to get our nine biggest care homes done first. Talk us through some of the practicalities. This will be replicated in lots of areas in the uk with gp practices and you say they are being delivered but can you literally talk me through it. How does it arrive. Take me through the mechanics of it. What has been happening so far is that you are given a date, a day it will arrive and we dont have a delivery time slot, so like everyone who gets a parcel it is 12 hours or can be any time from seven in the morning so someone has to be available on call including at weekends. The vaccine arrives with a courier and go straight into the fridge. And for the oxford vaccine it will be broken down into separate call boxes that are the right amount for care homes and staff and then we will go in our area to individual practice teams who will take those out to the care homes and distribute them, draw it up homes and distribute them, draw it up there and vaccinate everyone who needs it. You have already been administering some of the vaccine, so in practice, do you literally ta ke so in practice, do you literally take out a specific number of vaccines, ofjabs, take out a specific number of vaccines, of jabs, so take out a specific number of vaccines, ofjabs, so wherever you are going, will you know there are 26 people there, so you take out 26 to that place . How does it work . Absolutely. It is down to exact numbers because Precious Resource but also because we know from Computer Systems we know how many residents or vulnerable patients for it, so with the Pfizer Vaccine we are using the surgeries it is drawn up are using the surgeries it is drawn up and each vial has six doses and if we can get the full six doses and there is no spillage or wastage when it is drawn up, that is six people, great, then we move onto the next one, so we are constantly drawing up and die looting and checking and then its individually drawn up into each one before being administered to patients. People will have read plenty about the conditions that the Pfizer Vaccine has to be captain, the refrigerated conditions. I dont know if you can smile about this, but i can only imagine you and your member of staff carrying this around, given the precious cargo you are holding, they must be nervous moments. Incredibly nervous. And really stressful. Not helped by logistical issues. We got the Pfizer Vaccine delivered yesterday morning on the fridge to put it in a ripe several hours later. So that was ok, because we have other fridges to use but we are facing little challenges arrived several hours later. This is such a delicate vaccine and the bit that works is held in a lipid capsule, a really delicate, fatty layer, and if you shake the vaccine ortap layer, and if you shake the vaccine or tap the syringe, you will destroy that layer and the vaccine is not usable, so we are literally carrying it so gingerly and being so careful with it. It is quite stressful but it needs to be done. If i may, id like to ask you about reports that gps like yourself are being instructed and the phrase used is to stand down routine care because you are hopefully very busy giving out the vaccine. Have you been given any kind of instruction and what is happening in practice . kind of instruction and what is happening in practice . I think thats an incredibly challenging statement. The first thing that has happened that we very much welcome is that primary care networks, thats groups of practices, for me the six practices i work for have been asked to prioritise this, so the other things we normally have to do, the contractual requirements we can forget for now and focus on this, but that is not the day to day running so the surgery delivering the vaccines i was in yesterday had shut their doors and were doing everything over the phone where possible and only bringing down emergency patients to enable us to give vaccines in all of the rooms in their surgery so it will look very different for patients and im worried that they do not know that. Sorry, so we are absolutely clear, you say the routine business can carry on but you are being asked to concentrate on the vaccines, so the implication is that something has to give. So what is giving . What is giving is the planning of care, so normally gp surgeries would be doing routine reviews, medication reviews, calling you in if you have a long term condition for your annual checkups and we are always doing work like that as well as the urgent stuff that comes in on the day. So all of that planned work has to stop and it would be focusing on urgent conditions that need seeing and they will all be assessed remotely first in line with the nhs england guidance. Doctor norris, thank you for talking to us this morning. I dont know what your work planning is today, but can i recommend a strong, hot cup of tea to get the day started. Definitely. Thank you. Good luck with your day. Thank you so much. Still smiling even though she is exhausted. You can feel the weariness, with the task facing the nhs, gps and all of those people. If you see doctor zoe norris, give her a big smile, just be kind to her. Mike is looking at the sport. Any derby between Manchester City and united is always a massive event, regardless of the crowds or not, but then there was that extra layer after the death of colin bell and that weight, and they were having a number eight on the shirt as well, soi number eight on the shirt as well, so i was hearing the build up to that match and lots of people say that match and lots of people say that the players would be playing for him as well as getting to the final. The city manager dedicated the victory to the late colin bell and he would have been very proud of the performance, for the second year running they played Manchester United in the semifinal of the league cup, i dont know what it is about the league cup at Manchester City, its like they own it, but for a fourth Consecutive Year Manchester City have reached the final of the competition after they beat Manchester United at old trafford. 0na night Manchester United at old trafford. On a night they said goodbye to a clu b on a night they said goodbye to a club legend. A semifinal tinged with sadness with players wearing the number eight of colin l who died earlier this week, his former team mate mike summerbee, the emotion was plain to see colin bell. City and united had been in impressive form recently but neither could make a breakthrough although Kevin De Bruyne certainly came close. Just after the interval, city struck. John stones bundling at home, a first goal for his club since 2017. Not a bad time to score it. United had their own chances, but bruno fernandess waywardness summed up their night. Yet another semifinal defeat for them as fernandinho sealed citys victory in clinicalfashion. Through fernandinho sealed citys victory in clinical fashion. Through to their Fourth League cup final in a row, and another trophy is now in their sites. The coronavirus pandemic has started to have an impact on this weekends fa cup ties. This the interim derby manager wayne rooney and his entire First Team Squad manager wayne rooney will miss their third round game at chorley. A number of players and staff have tested positive for the virus and their Training Ground has been closed. Derby are going to use players from their under 23 and under 18 squads for the game instead. Meanwhile arsenal have asked for their Womens Super League game against aston villa on saturday to be postponed. Its after an unsanctioned trip to dubai led to a coronavirus case at the club. Three players travelled over christmas, but the club say they went for commerical reasons, meaning they were within the guidelines. So many young people rely on grassroot sports to keep their minds and bodies active but a Third National lockdown means they have been cancelled again. Laura scott reports on the impact this can have on those affected. Ata time at a time of year when people are starting their health kick, new lockdown rules have made that more challenging for many. 0ne lockdown rules have made that more challenging for many. One of the biggest shifts is that under 18 sport is no longer allowed. Some prominent sporting figures are worried about the impact. prominent sporting figures are worried about the impact. Ijust wa nt to worried about the impact. Ijust want to look after the well being of the kids and make sure that their minds are triggered towards being active, being able to get outside if they possibly can. Ijust feel that that message has not been Strong Enough from the government. I think it is so important that we just remind people that the fitter you are, the more chance you have of survival. The rules on what you can and cant do differs between the devolved nations. Grassroots team sports are off across the uk, and in england, wales and Northern Ireland, Tennis Courts and golf courses are shot, however in scotland, they are open as noncontact sports are permitted with up to two people from different households. Exercise in england is limited to once a day, whereas in wales, for example, people are encouraged to exercise as much as they like. Organised outdoor disability sports has an exemption in england. Although this has been welcomed, wheelchair rugby is an example of a sport where this makes little difference in reality because it cannot operate safely outside. All activity has been suspended, including an elite Training Camp this month, affecting preparations for the tokyo paralympics. Disabilities themselves are so wide and varied, just a blanket go ahead, play sport, does not really fit. There are so many other factors to ta ke there are so many other factors to take into consideration. We can only go ahead with playing rugby when it is safe to do so. While some sports that are no longer allowed are socially distant in nature, reducing mixing is key. I think that certainly contributes. When we have seen outbreaks related to sporting venues, most of them have been around either Mass Gatherings of social mixing around the event rather than necessarily the sport in itself, and those activities do tend to go up as people play sport in a particular environment. The government say that the reopening of gyms and Community Sport facilities will be your priority as soon as it is safe to do so, and for many that cannot come soon enough. So many will be have to creative at home like in the first lockdown, whether doing the Matt Whitlock gym sessions using the cipher as the apparatus. dont think anybody needs to try the same way Matt Whitlock does it. They will just be same way Matt Whitlock does it. They willjust be a case of standing up. Its quite hard to do 15. Its a bit weird without the sofa though. Nothing weird about that at all. Nothing weird about that at all. Nothing weird about that, carol . We love mike, dont we . That morning. This morning some of us are waking up to some underlying snow as you can see in Northern Ireland and in scotland. This is a picture taken earlier in the night of edinburgh. The snow has been falling and some sleet and rain but mostly sleet and snow across scotland and Northern Ireland, few wintry showers across parts of wales and east anglia but the other thing to watch out for this morning is ice, ice on untreated surfaces and we also have fog across parts of the midlands and into north west england, some of it is freezing fog, cold start and we will continue to see rain, sleet and snow move out of Northern Ireland and still across scotland in the south and behind that there is a risk of ice on untreated surfaces. Through the course of the day what will happen is we will see further snow falling across parts of scotla nd snow falling across parts of scotland getting into Northern England and we could have another five centimetres falling on the tops of the pennines but even at lower levels we could see some of that snow and through the day that gets into North West Wales, and ahead of it, whether fog lingers into North West Wales, and ahead of it, whetherfog lingers and into North West Wales, and ahead of it, whether fog lingers and will stick all day, temperatures will be suppressed and struggled to break freezing. Behind this band we are looking at further wintry showers down to sea level across northern scotla nd down to sea level across northern scotland and the wind is going to pick up and the wind will be a feature here for today, tonight and also tomorrow. Talking of this evening and overnight, some complication in the forecast with low pressure anchored in the north sea and a trough across northern scotla nd sea and a trough across northern scotland which will slow the progress of our front moving south, so we will see further snow tonight across Northern England and another ten centimetres possible across the pennines but we will see some of that getting down to lower levels as across north wales in the north West Midlands as well. South of that, return to some fog and the risk of summer ice as well. These are the overnight lows, 5, 6 across parts of scotland. Tomorrow, where does this line of snow go . Its going to head slowly southwards and westwards, but there is a complication in the forecast will stop at the moment it may not get into the south east, but if this complication doesnt come off then it may get into the south east. Not much help, i know, but what we think is that it will cross through the midlands and we will see some snow showers across South West England as well. A return to drier conditions as we lose the showers in scotland early on but still windy in the far north and not a bad day in Northern Ireland but where ever you are it is going to feel cold. We start the weekend on a cold note, a widespread frost, with overnight lows in southern and eastern scotland down to 10 southern and eastern scotland down to 10 or 11, the lowest temperature we are expecting, but then saturday for most of us is going to be dry with a fair bit of sunshine, weatherfronts going to be dry with a fair bit of sunshine, weather fronts coming going to be dry with a fair bit of sunshine, weatherfronts coming in across the north west introducing thick cloud and rain but the temperature will be higher and we will see a return to closer to normal temperatures for this time of the on sunday. Carol, thank you. Its at that point of view ric six, i think it is warm. As long as it is bright and crisp. Point where if ic six. Images of angry protestors storming the Capitol Building in the us have sparked widespread condemnation of President Trumps administration. Several thousand police and National Guard troops were deployed to disperse the rioters. Politicians on both sides have criticised the unrest which left four dead. We condemn the violence that took place here in the strongest possible terms. We grieve the loss of life in these hallowed halls. As well as the injuries suffered by those who defended our capital today. And we will always be grateful to the men and women who stayed at their posts to defend this historic place. To those who wreaked havoc in our capital today, you did not win. Violence never wins. Freedom wins. And this is still the peoples house. This will be a stain on our country not so easily washed away, the final, terrible indelible legacy of the 45th president of the United States, undoubtedly our worst. Those who performed these reprehensible acts cannot be called protesters. No, these were rioters and insurrection is, goons and thugs, domestic terrorists. They do not represent america. They were a few thousand viole nt extremists represent america. They were a few thousand violent extremists who try to take over the Capitol Building and attack our democracy. They must and attack our democracy. They must and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Lets speak now to nataliejennings, a political journalist for the washington post. Thanks very much for spending time with us this morning. I know you wont exactly there, you are close by, listening, but when we hear words like reprehensible, shocking, shameful, word is used to describe what happened yesterday, can you tell us why this has shocked so many people who saw this and who were there . For one thing, because this is one of the most fortified buildings you can imagine, the seat of the United States government and at that moment it was holding the brass of the government outside the president , the top three or four people in the us government. The fa ct people in the us government. The fact that protesters were so seemingly easily able to enter what is normally a very secure building, and the fact it was followed so closely on the hearing from President Trump, the speech that lasted over an hour, very angry about his loss and very encouraging of their efforts to support his bid to stay in power. Looking very closely at what he said in that rally early on, using words like i know that everyone will soon be marching over to the Capitol Building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard. Today we will see whether republicans stand strong for integrity of our elections, but whether or not they stand strong for our country. After this we will walk down and i will be there with you, we are going to walk down. How are his comments, his rallying words being interpreted now in light of what happened after that . They are being interpreted as pretty direct incitement. They werent totally, go into the Capitol Building, but the win cana into the Capitol Building, but the win can a nod was there. He did not say breach security the wink and the knot. You look at what he said afterwards, which wasnt a terribly strong condemnation and it took a while, and it took a lot of cajoling for him to issue the video that was sort of but out of both sides of his mouth, saying its time to go home and be peaceful, but also saying i love you, you are very special. So this is in someone who seems to hate what he saw. In terms of security around the building, there is a police force dedicated to that and there were calls at one point for there were calls at one point for the National Guard to be brought in and that was denied. In terms of the security, because we are seeing the pictures in there, very chaotic scenes and reports of four people who have died as well. How significant is this . It is shocking. This is something very concerning to people who live here. That is a place of work that friends of mine, collea g u es place of work that friends of mine, colleagues of mine were in. Everyone in this neighbourhood nearby, its very concerning to see that on a personal level and the failure of security is really stunning. 0ur collea g u es security is really stunning. 0ur colleagues talked to people who were former Police Chiefs of the Capitol Hill Police force, a separate force from the washington, dc police force which is over 1000 strong and they are dumbfounded as to how this could have happened and how the protesters we re have happened and how the protesters were so close that this was even an option that they could not be stopped from going into the building is something that is going to be studied and we will see a lot of fallout from it. I would say all of the members of congress were safely moved about and taken care of, so that chief duty was fulfilled, but you can imagine, as terrible as these seas are scenes are, its not hard to imagine how it could have been a lot worse situation. Really good to talk to you, natalie, thank you very much. Natalie jennings, journalist for the washington postjoining us from washington. Take there. We should just say we will be speaking to the home secretary priti patel and will be asking her about the law in relation to restrictions under the new coronavirus restrictions in place.

The st lukes Cancer Centre at the Royal Surrey Hospital has built this drive through pharmacy, where patients can get their medication so they can keep a social distance. Theyve also extended a Home Delivery service. The public are also being urged to seek help if they have any health concerns. Its absolutely paramount.

Traffic is slow but moving for about half a mile on the approach in bexleyheath, the a2 East Rochester way is down to one lane in both directions at the danson interchange, with london bound delays back to hall place. Now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Good morning. A cold and frosty start to the day, with temperatures slightly below freezing. Watch out for a few icy stretches towards eastern Home Counties and where we saw the showers yesterday. Its quite a murky start to the morning, with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Further west, a few mist and fog patches, and where the fog doesnt lift all day, which is a possibility, temperatures wont rise above freezing. Otherwise highs of one or two degrees, but it will stay dry with light winds and quite a lot of cloud, and certainly feeling very chilly. Not too much in the way of brightness at all. Overnight, we do the whole thing over again, but it will probably feel colder. Overnight lows of around minus two celsius, and mist and fog patches on friday means it will feel cold again, but it should be dry. And as we head into the weekend, we will keep those cold, frosty nights. There should be sunshine around on saturday, a little cloudy on sunday and temperatures start to improve. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Plenty more on our website at the usual address. Now though its back to naga and charlie. Bye for now.

Details in ten minutes. Good morning. Its thursday, 7th january. Our top story. Four people have died in violent clashes at the heart of americas democracy, where congress had been meeting to approve the results of the us president ial election. Donald Trump Supporters stormed the us congress building, one woman was shot and three other people had what are described as medical emergencies. More than 50 people were arrested and 1a Police Officers were injured. At first it was the few who breached security and gained access to the american halls of power. But it was soon hundreds who stormed and overran the us capitol while congress was in session. Stop the steel politicians of both parties have described this as one of the most shameful incidents ever to take place here. But for tom supporters who took part were unrepentant. That is not how things are done in this country. Lawlessness, storming buildings even. It wasnt founded on civility. This nation was founded on an revolutionary activity. We became civil after the government realised that they got overwhelmed. So what happens now . I guess now we wait and see if they take us seriously, because they saw how easily we could breach their defence. They had earlier gathered for a rally for a president still insisting the election was rigged. As the electoral votes were finalised by congress, he told protesters to march on the capital. Because you will never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. The Capitol Building was soon secured. But only in the evening the area around it was eventually eventually was too. After hours of allowing protesters to remain in capitol migrans, with a curfew now in place, police are now finally putting people off the ground and away from the Capitol Building. While there was a confrontation, many point out the strength shown by Security Forces as opposed to black lives matter to protest last summer. Protesters were proud of what they had done. All over the world is looking at washington. They saw people storming the capitol. hope they keep watching. We are the la st hope they keep watching. We are the last hope the world. At least in my mind and everything we have seen, we are free. Donald trump did call for peace. But in the same breath he once again reiterated the rallying cry that caused the violence. That the election had been stolen. Aleem maqbool, bbc news in washington. pres earlier we spoke to our washington correspondent lebo diseko who was inside the Capitol Building. Yeah, iwas yeah, i was actually standing at this very spot when we saw policemen coming in and they said we needed to move and shelter away from where we were. We were moved into a tunnel. It was not quite clear what was going on. But then we heard that the Capitol Building had been breached. This happened shortly after donald trump had given a speech in which he had encouraged his supporters to come up from outside the white house up come up from outside the white house up the road here, to the Capitol Building and make their protest heard. They certainly did that, but not ina heard. They certainly did that, but not in a way anyone could really have predicted or expected. Really quite shocking scenes. We saw tear gas employed, having to be employed, in the Capitol Building. This is the seat of democracy in america. We saw demonstrators jumping on the platforms on the floor of congress. It demonstrated that broking to nancy pelosi, the democratic leader of the house of representatives, putting his feet on her table, taking pictures there, people smashing windows, incredibly scary scenes really to watch. We by that time, had moved to a cafeteria where we we re time, had moved to a cafeteria where we were being kept along with some other people. The whole building was on lockdown. You could hear audible gasps at the beginning when people saw these things that were happening outside the building. We were watching them on tv as they were taking place. As the hours ticked by, we really were stunned by what was going on. It really has been quite shocking in terms of what has taken quite shocking in terms of what has ta ken place quite shocking in terms of what has taken place and four people have died today. There is quite a striking photo of two Security Office rs striking photo of two Security Officers holding guns trying to stop people breaking into the chamber, breaking onto the floor. A couple of the women i was speaking to when we we re the women i was speaking to when we were watching what was happening from inside the cafeteria, actually worked on the floor of the house and they said they are not even allowed to touch those desk. They were shocked, appalled and really quite hurt actually by the level of disrespect, they said, for this seat of democracy in the United States. I spoke to somebody else who works for a memberof the spoke to somebody else who works for a member of the house of representatives. He said he had to help him take cover. He accused donald trump of really attacking the democracy of his country. Borisjohnson hasjoined politicians from around the world in condemning the disgraceful scenes of rioters in washington dc. In a tweet, the Prime Minister called for a peaceful and orderly transfer of power. Labour leader keir starmer described the violent protests as a direct attack on democracy, and scotlands first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, called the events utterly horrifying. The Oxford Astrazeneca vaccine is being rolled out to general practices in england for the first time today. So far, all the jabs have been administered in hospitals. Now the programme is due to be expanded to hundreds of Community Based sites over the next few weeks. 0ur Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes has more. Already more than a Million People have received their first vaccinations against the coronavirus. But the target of reaching 13 million of the most vulnerable by february, is going to be tough to hit. Unlike the Pfizer Vaccine, which needs to be stored at ultra low temperatures, the oxford jab can be kept in regularfridges that gp surgery has. Its also much easier to move, and so better suited for use in care homes and those who cant leave the house. Gps say theyre ready to start administering the jab, despite some frustrations over supply. I just think we need some explanations. Why has there been this hold up . Why are some practices getting it, and others like mine not being given the vaccine . Why doesnt someone tell us what is going on . In england, seven big Vaccination Centres are opening. Over the next week, jabs will become available in more than 200 gp surgeries and hospitals, as well as through a pilot scheme involving local pharmacies. Amid the grim news of rising infections, the pressures on hospitals, and a growing death toll, this is another ray of hope for the coming months. Dominic hughes, bbc news. Mps have passed new lockdown laws which once again forbid people in england from leaving their homes, except for very specific reasons. 0ur political correspondent, ben wright, is in westminster this morning, and can tell us more. Good morning, ben. There is a little sense of deja vu for some people looking back to the restrictions that were in place in march, and wondering whether they are the same. What do these new Restrictions Mean in practice, in terms of the law . Well, they are very similar. It feels to a lot of people like a return to last march. These Restrictions Mean in a the lockdown measures are in place until the end of march. That is what mps have allowed the government to do. There was very little resistance in the house of commons. Labour backed the house of commons. Labour backed the government pump what my plans. Only 15 tory mps rebelled. The virus is surging across the country and crucially vaccines are coming. The jabs are being administered. There is hope. Mps have voted for up to three months of further restrictions. Some tory mps are not happy about that. They want the government to try and ease them as soon as early february, but Boris Johnson is saying, no, there are too many variables at play, we need the lockdown to happen now. We know the metropolitan police in london are going to be much more forceful in enforcing these rules. More fines, more condemnation of people who are not wearing their masks, were not social distancing. Ben can thank you. We are speaking to priti patel, the home secretary. The phrase used there, much more forceful as they look at how these rules are going to be enforced. We find out what that means from the home secretary. If you have confusion over those things, do let us know. Send the questions in the usual way. Ten things, do let us know. Send the questions in the usualway. Ten past seven. If you want a cold shoulder, a chill in the air, lets go to carol. Thank you, nag we will swiftly move on. Good morning. A lot going on with the weather. Freezing fog. The temperature in South Gloucestershire 3. Temperature in South Gloucestershire 3. We have also got ice on untreated surfaces to watch out for this morning. As if that wasnt enough, some of us are starting the day with some snow, lying snow at that, particularly across scotland and Northern Ireland. If we start in the south first of all, here we do have some freezing fog, dense patches. They will be slow to clear. There is also the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. It is a cold start. For some it is a clear start. Rain, sleet and snow moving out of Northern Ireland and remaining a of southern scotland but are getting into Northern England. The risk of ice from that. The risk of ice as we push further north into northern scotland. Increasingly northern scotla nd scotland. Increasingly northern scotland through the day, the showers will turn wintry, even down to sea level. The wind will strengthen. We will see further snow in the southern opulence, getting across Northern England and also across Northern England and also aCross North West wales. Southern opulence. Across the pennines we could see as much as five centimetres. Some could get down to low levels. They will be bright spells if you are not in an area that hangs on to the low cloud from the fog this morning. A cold day wherever you are. Through the evening and overnight the weather becomes more complicated. What we think is going to happen is they will be a further spell of snow across the pennines. We could see another ten centimetres. That will push south, getting into North West Wales, into the north West Midlands, a few wintry showers into the south west. Still snow showers in the far north of scotland and gusty winds. It will be told, the risk of ice, fog forming as well. A lot going on with the weather. If you wa nt to going on with the weather. If you want to know where that snow is heading, more details in half an hour. Carol, thank you very much. Lets go back to our top story now and the violent protests at the Capitol Building in washington, where congress had been meeting to approve the results of the us president ial election. Us senators were given gas masks and told to shelter under their seats, and hundreds of police and National Guard troops used tear gas to try and disperse the rioters. Speaking to the bbc, congresswoman madeline dean said it was a terrifying experience. We have just put our gas masks on and get secure. I chose to go behind the gallery. Behind the front wall of the gallery and i just the gallery. Behind the front wall of the gallery and ijust crouched down and encouraged colleagues to do the same. We got our masks on and they asked us to go across the gallery to be escorted out. It seemed unreal. One of the things that we heard as we were getting these various, little bit chaotic instructions, we heard banging on the doors of the chamber. I said, thats impossible. That must be security trying to secure something. But they had literally got to the doors. And as i looked down on those doors. And as i looked down on those doors where the president comes in for the state of the union, for example, men were trying to hold the door secure with their legs and then the glass was pierced. I never, ever, in my wildest dreams, would have thought that domestic terrorists, protesters inspired by the madness and insanity of this president , would actually come in and do harm to the capital and to the people there. You can hear the shockin the people there. You can hear the shock in that congresswomans voice. Lou correa is democratic congressman who was inside Capitol Building when protesters broke in. Thank you for your time. Do you want to tell me what was happening, what we re to tell me what was happening, what were you doing, what was happening in the chamber when you realised that the protesters were making their way that the protesters were making theirway in . That the protesters were making their way in . Thank you very much. What was i doing . I was doing my job, which is to certify the Election Results of this president ial election. I was in the gallery of congress watching and preparing to vote. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere i saw armed guards running into gravity speaker of congress and the leadership, democrats and republicans, and escorted them out quickly. Their explanation was we have protesters. For a few minutes everything seemed to be continuing as normal. But all of us had that ugly feeling that things were not normal. Five to ten minutes later, you saw another set of cards coming in and saying, get down everybody we heard tear gas explode. They said, please get down and put your masks on, your gas masks. We looked at each other and said, what mask . We were never aware, said, what mask . We were never aware , we never said, what mask . We were never aware, we never saw a gas mask in the congressional chambers. Lo and behold they said, look under your seats, and sure enough they were gas masks there. We were trying to put them on. I was on the gallery. Because of covid we had social distancing. I was not on the floor. A lot of us were on the Senate Balcony area. At that point it seemed as though a lot of the protesters, a lot of the mob, had broken into the senate chambers. We locked all the doors around us. Trying to figure out an escape route. Myself and a couple of others. This is where democrats and republicans came together, recognise that we were trapped and we had a lot of seniors who are members of congress, we had ladies, members of congress, we had ladies, members of congress micra, with high heels. Everybody trying to move to a direction of safety, not knowing what was safe, not knowing what was not safe, because we could not see what was going on outside of the chambers. We just heard a lot of banging on the doors of the chamber. For a few moments it was very intense. The adrenaline, of course, was running high in all of us. And ifi was running high in all of us. And if i was to cite a Silver Lining in this dark historical moment of america, it was that both democrats and republican legislators realised that we were all under attack, our democracy was under attack. And we all tried to help our colleagues find shelter and safety. That lasted for a few minutes. You saw our security guards with a handgun strong ready to fire. We saw doors barricaded as protesters tried to break into the chambers. Very intense situation for a lot of minutes. Finally found a door where it was safe to exit from. We began to evacuate the chambers to safer grounds. But it was a very surreal moment. For me, it was like watching a movie. I could not believe this was going on. I have been a member of congress for four years. Everything about what happened just didnt fit into my picture of american democracy. We are taught to think about america as a peaceful pace, of peaceful transitions of power. For the last 250 years we have had peaceful transitions of one presidency to the other. George washington, way back when, was a great president , not because he was the first president , it was rather George Washington was a great president because he decided to voluntarily leave the presidency. So all of this was swelling around us. And, of course, we are all waking up today trying to figure out what happened. And what happened was that we have a president who is refusing to leave office. We have a president that held a rally attended by 30,000 people. Then he egged them on to come to congress, to essentially come to congress, to essentially come and support of those that were supporting him and not support those that were not supporting them, essentially saying, lets storm the capitol. This is unheard of for an american president to incite a riot, an attack on a legal branch of government. We are all shocked. And i must say this republican president wasnt going after democrats. He was going after his republican colleagues. Vice president mike pence, during his speeches, he was saying, pence has the power to stop this transition, we have to ask, we have to demand it. Everybody knows thatis have to demand it. Everybody knows that is constitutionally incorrect. Its a fallacy. Go ahead. And she saw this more and more, the president going after people with a vengeance. This was terrible. We will be running the quotes of what President Trump did say in its rally before those protesters made their way down to the Capitol Building. What he had said as we are going to walk down to the capitol, cheer on our brave senators, we will probably not be cheering so much for some of them because you will never take back our country. You have to show strength and be strong. Just looking at some quotes you have made since obviously these tragic occurrence. I mean, four people have died. As you said today, you are delighted that at least some positives to bring out of this is the unity of democrats and republicans in this intense situation. Would you have also said that we are it the embarrassment of the world. That is the quote i am reading. You still believe that . Absolutely. This is supposed to be america. The greatest country, strongest, wealthiest country in the world. We pride ourselves in our democracy. And today we had the president turning the mob on congress for the purpose of what . To stop a peaceful transition of power. Even before the election, this president was saying if i lose it is because of voter fraud. He has been setting this up for four and a half years. This is terrible. And to me its an embarrassment because this is what they do, this is what despots, this is what tyrants, this is what dictators do in third world countries. We dont expect that in england, you dont expect it in germany, you dont expect it in the United States. And today, we are an embarrassment to the world. But i say to all of you that this has been a wake up call because now we realise how fragile our democracy really is. And how much we have to work to make sure that democracy is preserved in america. Congressman luca rayer, thank you very much for taking some time to talk to us this morning. Im glad you are safe. Thank you. Thank you very much. As we speak we continue to count votes and we are heading back to the floor to vote. Thank you very much for your interest. God bless america. Thank you very much. That is one of the key issues here, it has not stopped the protest. It is ongoing. Boris johnson it has not stopped the protest. It is ongoing. Borisjohnson did tweet in connection with the violence out there. We will be speaking to the home secretary priti patel in a few minutes and getting her thoughts on the things that we all witnessed in america overnight. 22 minute past seven. Lockdown rules in england mean you can only leave your home in certain circumstances, such as shopping for essentials or caring for a vulnerable person. Those breaching the rules could face hefty police fines as part of a tougher crackdown on covid Rule Breakers. Lets speak to martin hewitt, who is the chair of the national Police Chiefs council. Good morning to you. Thank you for joining us. 0k, good morning to you. Thank you for joining us. Ok, so it seems like the wording has tightened up compared to the most recent restrictions that we have seen, tier 4 and tier 3. There is obviously a clear message that is intended to be put out here. How are you interpreting that . Absolutely. They really clear message is just how dangerous this virus is at the moment and we have all seen that and it has all been a lovely news in the last day or so, the pressure on the last day or so, the pressure on the nhs. Its important people follow these rules. Even when the measures came in in november, i spoke on this programme and others and said that whilst we would be adopting our four es, we are going to move more quickly to enforce them where people are blatantly breaching the rules. The rules now are very, very clear. Similar to where we were backin very clear. Similar to where we were back in the spring of last year. And everyone has a responsibility to follow those rules. And we will play our part and deal particularly with those people who are blatantly breaching the rules and putting everyones lives at risk. What is blatant . The example i often use is where we are still seeing people coming together in very large gatherings, whether the that is at events in an old warehouse or in houses, which is very, very dangerous when you look at how transmissible this virus is. Those events are being organised by somebody and people are turning up there knowing they were going to large events. So we will, as we have been, deal very quickly and very seriously with those events. And people who do that and are involved in those can expect to receive fines asa in those can expect to receive fines as a result. This is very serious. And those events cause mass transmission. Those are the blatant, the obvious breaches that you can approach. What about if two people are out and they stepped out, they are out and they stepped out, they are supposed to stay local, they step out of their county or their local area when going for a walk . Yeah, of course, someone is allowed to go exercise outside with one other person or people from their household. That is absolutely right. All i would urge people to do is be responsible. This is to take one bit of exercise a day. And the guidance, it is the guidance, says you should do that locally. The whole purpose here is to avoid the spread of the virus. And i would just urge people to be responsible, take the exercise. By all means take that exercise. By all means take that exercise with one other person. But i dont think you need to travel a far distance to go and exercise. Most people will have some were relatively local. This is all about preventing people coming together, which is where obviously the disease can be transmitted. That is really what we are asking people to do. But we will police that in every proportionate and common sense way, which i think is what we have been doing for the last ten months. They have often been discussions with yourself, with the police federation, talking about how easy it is and how much in terms of resources , it is and how much in terms of resources, how physically possible it is to be inquisitive and to engage. You can understandably be attracted to the blatant this regard of rules, as you explained earlier. But it is the nuances. It is when people tread over lines. Do you have the resources, has the met police been advised to be, and i quote, more inquisitive, do you have the resources to do that . That is the word we have been using. The met police commentary has drawn attention. They are operating exactly the same way we are operating around the country. And really, that inquisitiveness is the point about engaging. Throughout this we have talked to people. But do you have the resources to do that . Well, of course this has stretched us. There no two ways. We have been at this for ten months. Alongside doing this, the Police Service is also doing all the normal rules the police does to keep people safe. There is no doubt this has stretched our resources and of course our people are tired in the way that everybody has been tired. This is difficult. I make no bones about that. When you have got the restrictions like we have now and we had in the spring last year, there is so much that is closed down that does give us extra capacity to to focus on the issues related to stopping the spread of the virus. But of course we have not got limitless resources. We always have to prioritise. And we are still dealing with all of the crime and safety issues we deal with anyway. But this is really, really important, that we collectively stop the spread of the virus as it is at the spread of the virus as it is at the moment. We are playing our part in doing that. Martin hewitt, thank you very much for your time with us this morning on breakfast. We will be speaking to the home secretary in a couple of minutes. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london, im Victoria Hollins. The excel centre in east london has been announced as one of seven new mass Covid Vaccination hubs across england. Expected to be staffed by the nhs and volunteers, operations will Begin Next Week in a bid to meet the governments target of vaccinating 1a Million People in the uk by february. Plans to turn gatwick airports emergency runway into a second runway for flights have taken a step forward. The airport owners have agreed to fund the next stage of the planning application with a full consultation due in the summer. They say its vital for economic recovery and will create jobs. But campaigners say the move is callous, and ignores wishes of People Living nearby. A charitys offering care homes a bit ofjoy for residents who have to stay indoors for their own safety. Its a new video on demand service, designed for people with dementia. So far two homes in richmond have signed up, along with a home in hampton where 88 year old barbara lives. Barbara can be quite tearful at times with her dementia. So, this really does help, because it takes her mind off everything that makes her upset. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube the metropolitan line is part suspended between harrow on the hill to amersham and chesham. And london 0verground also part suspended between gospel 0ak and Upper Holloway. 0n the m25, two lanes are blocked clockwise towards the clacket Lane Services following a collision. Traffic is slow but moving for about half a mile on the approach. In bexleyheath, the a2 East Rochester way is down to one lane in both directions at the danson interchange, with london bound delays back to hall place. In harlesden, the a401 harrow road is partly blocked westbound at scrubs lane following an overturned lorry, with eastbound delays back to harlesden high st. Now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Good morning. A cold and frosty start to the day, with temperatures slightly below freezing. Watch out for a few icy stretches towards eastern Home Counties and where we saw the showers yesterday. Its quite a murky start to the morning, with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Further west, a few mist and fog patches, and where the fog doesnt lift all day, which is a possibility, temperatures wont rise above freezing. Otherwise highs of one or two degrees, but it will stay dry with light winds and quite a lot of cloud, and certainly feeling very chilly. Not too much in the way of brightness at all. Overnight, we do the whole thing over again, but it will probably feel colder. Overnight lows of around minus two celsius, and mist and fog patches on friday means it will feel cold again, but it should be dry. And as we head into the weekend, we will keep those cold, frosty nights. There should be sunshine around on saturday, a little cloudy on sunday and temperatures start to improve. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Plenty more on our website at the usual address. Now though its back to naga and charlie. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Naga Munchetty and charlie stayt. The violent protests in the us have been condemned by leaders around the world. In a tweet, borisjohnson described the clashes as disgraceful and called for a peaceful and orderly transfer of power to president electjoe biden. Lets speak to the home secretary, priti patel, who joins us from westminster. Good morning to you. How do you characterise what many people, im sure you as well, witnessed overnight . Well, i have been watching the news bulletins and weve just seen thoroughly unacceptable scenes of violence, really terrible scenes of violence and there is nojustification really terrible scenes of violence and there is no justification for any of this whatsoever. Quite frankly, as we all now know, people have died throughout this violence as well, someone was shot and these scenes are awful, beyond words, at the heart of democracy. America is an incredible beacon of liberty, freedom and democracy and to see that at the heart of democracy is truly shocking. There was a protest that was allowed that was taking place outside the Capital Building and then something changed. What think changed . First of all, just a level of language and rhetoric, clearly comments that have helped fuel the violence and i think there is no scope for violence whatsoever. It is just appalling in terms of what we have seen. Very unacceptable. And quite frankly, America Needs to move on and have the transition that is absolutely essential and the type of transition that america is famous for, actually, when it comes to that handover between different Political Parties after an election period, but quite frankly the violence we have seen has been so appalling and there is no justification have seen has been so appalling and there is nojustification for have seen has been so appalling and there is no justification for it. When you talk about language and rhetoric, are you talking about donald trump . His comments directly led to the violence and so far he has failed to condemn that violence and that is completely wrong. So the sequence of events is that Donald Trumps comments led directly to the violence that followed . Trumps comments led directly to the violence that followed . That it was incendiary . Lets be very clear in terms of the scenes, what we have seen, basically, in washington, and the display of the violence, he has not, he basically has made a number of comments yesterday that helped to fuel that violence and he didnt actually do anything to de escalate that whatsoever. His language was not to de escalate the violence effectively and what we have seen is com pletely effectively and what we have seen is completely unacceptable. Interesting that lines are being drawn in terms of what people are prepared to say about the president of the United States and im looking at what he actually did say when a statement was released by him, a recorded statement and he was speaking directly to those protesters who at that point were inside the building. And he said you have to go home now. We have to have peace. And he went on to say this was a fraudulent election but we cannot play into the hands of these people. And then talking directly to the protesters, who by that point he had already broken into the Capitol Building, he said, we love you, i know how you feel. What do you make of that . He failed to condemn the violence and i think that is wrong. As you have just said, the protesters at that stage were inside the building, someone had been shot and we have seen the most appalling scenes, we really have and there is no justification for this whatsoever. It is completely unacceptable. There is no justification for the violence. Donald trump really should have condemned that violence and he has failed to do that and i think thatis has failed to do that and i think that is wrong. Its inescapable, given what you are saying, that you believe his words escalated the violence, what we now know as you mentioned at the beginning of the interview was that four people have lost their lives in the events that subsequently unfolded. Its not clear entirely how that happened. But there is a link between those two things. Well, look, we have all been watching the scenes overnight and they are just horrendous, absolutely unacceptable at the heart of democracy. America takes great pride in transitions, democracy, freedom is, values, a society of tolerance and respect, certainly through the democratic process and people have died. This is absolutely tragic, tragic for america, tragic for the american people, tragic for those who have lost their loved ones in the violence yesterday, and as ive said, there is nojustification for it whatsoever and i think now more than ever it is important, you know, we want america to be successful. We want, america is a close friend and ally of our own country as well. We absolutely want them to move on now and have that orderly transition that they need so they continue with their own governance and establishing the president ial office, which, you know the transition and inauguration is due to take place on the 20th of january. Do you have any respect or donald trump now . This isnt about respect for an individual. Ive already said his comments have been associated with the violence and he has failed to condemn that violence andi has failed to condemn that violence and i think that is completely wrong. People have died and what we have seen is so extraordinary and there is no justification have seen is so extraordinary and there is nojustification for have seen is so extraordinary and there is no justification for it and as ive said, on the scenes of violence, condemning that violence, the escalating violence, clearly there is more he could have done and should have done and the fact he has failed to condemn that violence i think is absolutely wrong. Lets move on to issues here. You are the home secretary and we are hearing from the metropolitan police that they plan to have a slightly different approach to how Law Enforcement will be related to the laws around what people are allowed to do. How do you see that working in practice . I think first of all, when it comes to policing i want to pay tribute to the way the police cross country, all Police Forces couper who are operationally independent but they are following guidance based on the regulations around coronavirus restrictions and have been doing that since the first lockdown in spring of last year and i heard martin hewitts comments earlier on your programme. The fact of the matter is that the police have been out every single day enforcing the covid regulations and they have been using the methods to explain, encourage, and now they are going to enforcement more quickly than they had done previously but actually in a similar way to which they did do in the spring of last year. They will continue to enforce, they will continue to pursue egregious breaches of the coronavirus regulations and they have been doing that anyway. In the last two weeks over the Christmas Period we have seen Something Like over 800 fixed penalty notice fines issued when it comes to egregious breaches and people breaching the regulations around covid and right now it is clear that the stay at home advice means people should only be going out in restricted and limited circumstances. It becomes much clearer in terms of the way the police will communicate with the public. What i would like to do is, because simon has got in touch and lots of people have questions and he wa nted lots of people have questions and he wanted us to ask you, when are you finally going to crack down on rule brea kers finally going to crack down on Rule Breakers who openly defy the law by not wearing a Face Covering in supermarkets and on public transport . I know you mentioned a moment ago that they would be quicker to act, so lets look at a scenario. Police officer sees someone in a public place, in a public place, without wearing a mask, they go up to them and they say, you realise you should be wearing a mask and that person says i have a dispensation but i havent got any paperwork to prove it. Should they be having their details taken at that point in time and then later have to prove that they have a reason why they should not wear one . First of all, you are speaking about a hypothetical situation about some that could be outdoors. Unless we know the individuals specific circumstances, the police will exercise theirjudgment circumstances, the police will exercise their judgment and circumstances, the police will exercise theirjudgment and they are exceptional at exercising their professionaljudgment based exceptional at exercising their professional judgment based on exceptional at exercising their professionaljudgment based on the guidance issued to Police Forces. However, youve also mentioned about not wearing Face Coverings in supermarkets and that is completely wrong, and supermarkets and the government is working with them on guidance and advice as we always have been throughout this pandemic on the type of measures and that fines are put again supermarkets and retailers and businesses that are not following the coronavirus guidance, and any organisational business, whether it is a supermarket or another Retail Outlet that fails to implement the social restrictions, they can be given a fine of up to £10,000. But you are talking about the business. What im curious about is the individual. Is the approach going to be now, charge first, explain if you can at a later date as to why you werent wearing a mask when you should have been . Charlie, the answer is no. You heard me say already that the police will exercise theirjudgment on the conversation they had with that individual. That will be based on the circumstances, location, indoors or outdoors, wherever that happens to be, and also if an individual has a legitimate reason, there might be medical reasons, Health Reasons why they are not wearing a Face Covering, then that individual will have a conversation with the Police Officers. That has been Standard Practice and it has been happening throughout the whole pandemic. But of course, right now, i think its really important to emphasise that everybody, this isntjust about policing, everyone has a responsibility to follow the restrictions will stop we are seeing coronavirus rising at an unprecedented level right now. Which is why we have put forward the stay at home guidance and advice. We are seeing the strains on our hospitals. We saw that throughout the Christmas Period, and this is exactly why we are in this lockdown situation over again. The public have been very good and i have been on this programme a few times over the last month and the public have been following the guidance, and i would urge everyone to continue to follow the regulations and guidance and again be conscientious to one another so we can keep each other safe throughout this pandemic. This isa safe throughout this pandemic. This is a question from sean, and a lot of this comes down to individual situations, which is why it is tricky. My son is furloughed. Am i allowed to travel 100 miles to bring him home if i dont leave my car . This comes down to the issue is what cou nts this comes down to the issue is what counts as local. It doesnt. The advice is clearly to stay at home. People should not be travelling at all right now. 100 miles is not a cce pta ble all right now. 100 miles is not acceptable in terms of travel. We are urging the public and the Prime Minister could not have been any clearer on the stay at home advice that has been issued. That is the purpose of the lockdown and i think its really important for me to restate your view is that we are in a pandemic started last year and we are ina a pandemic started last year and we are in a very serious situation right now, and at this stage we have a roll out programme for mass vaccination right now which is the good news around coronavirus, but at the same time we have got to stop the same time we have got to stop the spread of this virus and the way this virus spreads, as ive said repeatedly, and last time and i was on your programme, is by contact with people, and this is why we are urging people to stay at home and go out for a very limited and restricted purposes such as shopping, work, and if you cannot work from home, if you are ill and seeking medical treatment and just going for very localised exercise, but other than that, we are urging everybody to stay at home and follow the guidance and the rules. Priti patel, thank you very much for your time this morning. Time to catch up on the sport with my kind its interesting that when a team wins something so important but it is still tinged with sadness after the loss of a treasured player. All the Manchester City players were probably too young to remember colin bell playing for Manchester City but they knew how much he was a part of they knew how much he was a part of the fabric of the club and they used it as inspiration and dedicated this win in the semifinals of the league cup to colin bell. Manchester city are through to the final of the efl cup for the fourth year running after beating city rivals Manchester United. Before the game there was a minutes silence in memory of city legend colin bell who died this week. Citys players all wearing number eight, bells old number. There is mike summerbee, getting emotional. It took until the second half for them to go ahead. John stones the unlikely scorer before a great volley from fernandinho secured the win. Theyll now meet spurs in the final which will be played in april. Todayis today is quite remarkable what we have achieved but it is an honour for us today to dedicate this victory for all our group of people, the players, the backroom staff, to colin bell and his family, for our Manchester City fans that miss him a lot and it is a great night for us and especially for colin and his family. Certainly a fitting tribute. The coronavirus pandemic has started to have an impact on this weekends fa cup ties. The interim derby manager wayne rooney and his entire First Team Squad will miss their third round game at chorley. A number of players and staff have tested positive for the virus and their Training Ground has been closed. Derby are going to use players from their under 23 and under 18 squads for the game instead. And phil nevilles role as the boss of great britains women team for the Tokyo Olympics is in doubt. Thats because hes in talks to become manager of inter miami the American Club owned by his former Manchester United team mate, david beckham. Neville will step down as england manager injuly, but was set to take charge of team gb later that month. So now it could pose the fa with a bit of a dilemma because the netherlands manager is due to take over the englands womens team in september but she will be in charge of the netherlands at the olympics, so if phil neville was to start managing in the american soccer league, that would be perhaps from march when they intend to start the season with them having to find a temporary manager for the olympics. Theyve got lots of assistant managers and everything. Obviously thatis managers and everything. Obviously that is one option. They know the team. You can have a senior player taking charge. Unless they can persuade serena to start early, but i wouldnt have thought that before september. Speak to you later, mike. Carroll, tell us about the weather. Im thinking, oh, look at that, it looks cold. Theres a lot going on with the weather. Good morning. We had some snow last night across scotland and Northern Ireland in particular and this is a picture from west lothian taken this morning but by show you the kind of track but the snow has been taking, pushing steadily south east and more or less out of Northern Ireland and it will continue to journey into Northern England and later North West Wales, but ahead of it there is some freezing fog and also the risk of ice on untreated surfaces so bear that in mind and we run back into the snow crossing the borders into Northern England, out of Northern Ireland and also the highlands but there is still the risk of ice and we will start to see wintry showers falling across the far north of scotland, and even some of that is no getting down to sea level, accompanied by gusty winds. Meanwhile the band of rain, sleet and snow pushes across Northern England and we could see another five centimetres in the pennines, and even in lower levels we will see snow and eventually gets to North West Wales. Ahead of it, the freezing fog we had this morning, some of it will lift and some of it will stick all day and if it does, that will hold back the temperature but where it doesnt, we will see bright skies but it will be cold whichever way you look at it. Through the evening and overnight, a complication in the weather. What we think will happen is we will see further snow crossing Northern England and we could have another ten centimetres on top of what we are looking at today and some of it will get down to lower levels, not ten centimetres of course, but eventually it will Cross North West wales, the north west and midlands and there will be wintry showers across the south west and once again there is the risk of ice on untreated surfaces and we will see fog patches forming and we will have the gusty winds and snow down to sea level across the far north of scotland. These are the temperatures we expect overnight and it could be lower than that across parts of southern scotland where we could have a 5 or 6. Tomorrow, here is the weather front and what we think will happen is it will continue to push southwards taking some of the snow across wales and getting into parts of the midlands and parts of South West England, but it is a weakening feature. Behind that, dry and brighter and the showers fade across scotland and it will still be windy and once again, where ever you are, it will feel cold. For saturday, we are looking at a widespread frost to start the day and the lowest temperatures will be across southern and eastern scotland and here temperatures could fall as low as 10 or 11, but a lot of clear skies to start the day and a fair bit of sunshine around. However, we do have a weather front coming in from the atlantic and that will introduce more clout, hill snow and also rain, but the other thing it will do is change the wind direction so we could have more of an atlantic influence on the weather and you can see that in the temperatures, for the rest of the uk it still is going to feel cold. That milderair it still is going to feel cold. That milder air will cross southern and eastern areas during the course of sunday and into next week but that also brings us more unsettled conditions, particularly across the where we will see rain at times, so just to recap, the chance of disruptive weather tonight, especially across Northern England and North West Wales, heading down towards the north West Midlands as well. I went for a walk yesterday. A brisk walk will a perfect winters day and i had four and a half layers on top. How many layers are you . Im probably the same as you, with a hat and a scarf. Double layer woolly hat. I am yet to find gloves that keep my hands warm, but im enjoying it and if you walk fast enough, it is find will stop you get hot if you walk fast enough with that club on. Very kind of you to say. Rank you very much. Thank you very much. Lets return to the protest at the Capitol Building in washington where congress had been meeting to approve the results of the us president ial election. We now know that four people died during the events that unfolded. Lets speak to us politicial analyst, eric ham. Good morning, and what i will do, just putting an image up on screen which in some ways is one of the focal points of the story. I am sure you have seen it, where you have got the capitol Police Officers with their weapons drawn, pointing at the main doorand their weapons drawn, pointing at the main door and window that has been smashed in and if you look closely you can see the face one of these protesters outside. It is a quite extraordinary image. It is and just a horror and terror that we saw play out today where you had protesters literally attacking the government, attacking the first branch of government and while the government was in the process of orchestrating this peaceful transition of power which is something we are yet to witness in this country and of course, donald trump was the ca ta lyst course, donald trump was the catalyst for this and the question will be, what is the fallout for the president and ultimately for those protesters who actually followed through on these attacks today. Eric, this is a building you know well. You know it and you go in and out of it all the time and a lot of people are asking a fundamental question, how on earth was this allowed to happen . That is one of the questions we are seeing play out today and tim ryan of ohio said that there will be people who will lose theirjob over this. There are right now on staff over 2000 capital Police Officers who have a budget of nearly 500 million and their budget further Capital Police is larger than some cities in the us but what we saw today was a Police Department that was woefully unprepared to deal with what was coming, which is striking because we know the mayor herself had already called up the us National Guard and was employing imploring people to stay away from downtown washington, dc for two days, so why there was such a colossal failure of the us Capitol Police to not only secure the perimeter but also to ensure the safety of its members and those who we re safety of its members and those who were in the building is quite striking. Very quickly, what could be the consequences for donald trump given the comments he made . What are the possibilities . Some of the possibilities could be the invocation of the 25th amendment to remove some of the powers of the president , censure or outright removal by impeachment. We have to look at donald trump as a potential enemy of the state after what took place today. Eric, thank you very much. Access to Electronic Devices has been a constant issue throughout the pandemic for many deprived pupils. According to figures by 0fcom last august, more than a million children in the uk did not have access to a laptop or other device at the time. In england, the government says it delivered more than 560,000 devices to schools and councils between march and december. In scotland, more than 50,000 devices such as laptops have been distributed to children and young people to help with Remote Learning. In Northern Ireland, 11,000 devices have been allocated to schools through a digital device lending scheme. In wales, the government committed up to £3 million to support digitally excluded learners in schools where there was no existing provision in place. Were now joined by the general secretary of the National Association of head teachers, paul whiteman. Thank you for your time. Is it all about online devices . Is that going to fix the problem in terms of getting children to actually learn something and be educated . M getting children to actually learn something and be educated . It is much more complex than that and we spoke to a little over 4000 of our members across england and wales last night and we are talking to members in Northern Ireland very shortly after some very busy and chaotic days in education, but i got three very clear messages last night on the first was that not enough devices have arrived yet. We did a quick poll last evening and about 70 of the respondents in that poll told us they had less than half the devices that they needed to help them with the delivery of education. The second message i got was that its not all about devices. You can sit a child in front of a device for the number of hours prescribed by the number of hours prescribed by the government but you have to make sure the child is engaged and learning. Three hours of disengaged learning. Three hours of disengaged learning is less value than an hour of really good engagement and proper learning, so we have to be more sophisticated than that and recognise that some children learn better with different methods of Home Learning, so schools need some freedom. The third and worrying development is that the list of key workers seems to be being used much further than was expected. We have reports of about 70 of families trying to access schools despite the stay at home message and that is working against the governments intention of keeping people apart. 0ur appeal today is to everybody, government, families, to work with education, have some calm and patience for us to get it organised. Remember, the government has been changing directions in a moment on the schools need time to respond but on the Home Learning front, its not all about digital. We havent got all about digital. We havent got all of the devices there but it is about engagement as well as having a piece of kit. Gavin williamson announced yesterday that pupils in england without access to laptops are designated as Vulnerable Children and i suppose it extends the point you are making, because there is a balance, yes, admittedly, Digital Learning is not the only learning that they will benefit from, but in order to keep them learning, if that is the case, they are allowed learning, if that is the case, they a re allowed into learning, if that is the case, they are allowed into school, then head teachers around the country, they are making that balance between safety a nd are making that balance between safety and the safety of the kids in terms of making sure they have some sort of foundation for the future. Absolutely and School Leaders and their teams are the most committed to having children in school but if the government has made the decision to stop the transfer in community that access to schools should be restricted, opening up further and further is working against that safety measure that the government is putting in place and now School Leavers and their team are in the difficult position of having to make judgments that they are not equipped to make and what we will have to do is have some calm in education and start working together rather than accusing each other of failure. However we have got to the situation, we have a moment now where the government can work with educators and the profession and benefit from their educational expertise about how we keep education going for children during difficult times under the new restrictions that the government has brought forward in the blink of an eye, so what im appealing for is two things, calm amongst families and a bit of patience to allow schools to get organised. They have had no time at all to get organised since the last decision and some patients from government, accusing schools and bringing legal action forward and saying in the chamber of the house yesterday that you can complain of the school is not doing what you want and complain to 0fsted, it really isnt trusting teachers or putting trust in educators, which is what we need. Good to talk to you. General secretary of the National Association of head teachers, thank you for your time. Headlines coming up you for your time. Headlines coming up next. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today death, violence and chaos in washington dc four people die as President Trumps supporters storm americas Capitol Building.

We have got some snow moving out of Northern Ireland across southern scotland into Northern England, and eventually north wales. Behind that in northern scotland further snow showers to come. Details in ten minutes. Good morning. Its thursday, 7th january, our top story. Four people have died in violent clashes at the heart of americas democracy, where congress had been meeting to approve the results of the us president ial election. Donald Trump Supporters stormed the us congress building, one woman was shot and three other people had what are described as medical emergencies. More than 50 people were arrested and 14 Police Officers were injured. At first it was the few who breached security and gained access to the american halls of power. Crowd usa usa but it was soon hundreds who stormed and overran the us capitol while congress was in session. Crowd stop the steal politicians of both parties have described this as one of the most shameful incidents ever to take place here. But Trump Supporters who took part were unrepentant. That is not how things are done in this country. Lawlessness, storming buildings even . This nation wasnt founded on civility. This nation was founded on revolutionary activity. We became civil after the government realised that they got overwhelmed. So what happens now . I guess now we wait and see if they take us seriously, because they saw how easily we could breach their defence. They had earlier gathered for a rally for a president still insisting the election was rigged. As the electoral votes were finalised by congress, he told protesters to march on the capitol. Because you will never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. The Capitol Building was soon secured. But only in the evening the area around it eventually was too. After hours of allowing protesters to remain in capitol grounds, with a curfew now in place, police are now finally putting people off the grounds and away from the Capitol Building. While there was a confrontation, many point out the relative restraint shown by Security Forces as opposed to black lives matter to protest last summer. Protesters were proud of what they had done. All over the world is looking at washington. They saw people storming the capitol. I hope they keep watching. We are the last hope the world. At least in my mind and everything i have seen, we are free. Donald trump did call for peace. But in the same breath he once again reiterated the rallying cry that caused the violence. That the election had been stolen. Aleem maqbool, bbc news in washington. 0ur washington correspondent lebo diseko was inside the Capitol Building when it was invaded by the protestors. She watched as it unfolded. We saw demonstrators jumping on the platform on the floor of congress. A demonstrator that broke into the office of nancy pelosi, the democratic leader of the house of representatives, put his feet on her table, taking pictures. People smashing windows. Incredibly scary scenes really to watch. We, by that time, had moved to a cafeteria, where we were being kept along with its other people. The whole building was unlocked and at that point. You could hear audible gasps at the beginning when the people saw the scenes that were happening outside the building. We were watching them on tv as they were taking place. As the hours ticked by, we really were stunned by what was going on. It really has been quite shocking in terms of what has taken place, and four people have died today. The violent clashes have sparked widespread condemnation of President Trumps administration. To storm the capitol, to smash windows, to occupy offices, the floor of the United States senate, rummaging through desks on the house of representatives, threatening the safety of of elected officials, it is not a protest. It is interaction. The world is watching. Like so many other americans, i am genuinely shocked and saddened that our nation, so long the beacon of light and hope for democracy, has come to such a dark moment. We condemn the violence that took place here in the strongest possible terms. We grieve the loss of life in these hallowed halls. As well as the injuries suffered by those who defended our capitol today. And we will always be grateful the men and women who stayed at their posts to defend this historic place. To those who wreaked havocin historic place. To those who wreaked havoc in our capitol today, you did not win. Violence never wins. Freedom wins. And this is still the peoples house. 0ur political correspondent, ben wright is in westminster this morning. Ben, all of us were just sitting watching the events unfold yesterday in disbelief. We have been getting the reaction, we were talking to priti patel earlier in this programme . Yeah, thats right. During the evening politicians were tweeting out their horror as they watched at the same scenes we were. There was Cross Party Condemnation of what was happening on capitol hill. The Prime Minister said they we re hill. The Prime Minister said they were disgraceful scenes and said it was vital they should now be a peaceful and orderly transfer of power. The labour leader said it was a direct attack on democracy. A Nicola Sturgeon in scotland called the event of utterly horrifying. What is interesting is that over the yea rs what is interesting is that over the years politicians around the world have sort of what they diplomatic tightrope when it comes to talking about a President Trumps actions. But in the last days of his presidency they are being absolutely explicit about what they feel about how he incited this violence. This is what priti patel said. His comments, being associated with that violence, he has failed to condemn that violence. I think that is completely wrong. People have died. What we have seen isjust so extraordinary. There is no justification for it. And as ive said, just on the scenes of violence, condemning that violence, the escalating that violence, clearly there is more that he could have done and should have done. And the fact that he has failed to condemn that violence i think is absolutely wrong. We may hear from borisjohnson later absolutely wrong. We may hear from Boris Johnson later who absolutely wrong. We may hear from borisjohnson later who is appearing at the press conference in downing street to talk about the vaccination roll out programme. Priti patel was asked by you at the police are enforcing the lockdown restrictions. I thought it was interesting she said that police will be pursuing egregious breaches of restrictions much more forcefully, suggesting, i think that if this third lockdown will be, you know, firmly enforced by police and looking to catch people out and enforce those rules, perhaps more than they have done over the past few months. Ben, thank you. Nine minutes past eight on a thursday morning. It is looking pretty nippy. It certainly is. It is a cold start. Good morning. For some of us, what a beautiful one. Look at this weather watchers picture in county durham. Lying snow and a hint of a little bit of blue sky. But a lot of us are seeing a different scenario. Some of us have had some snow overnight, particularly across scotland and Northern Ireland. Some icy stretches. Also some freezing fog. A lot of the freezing fog is across pa rt lot of the freezing fog is across part of the midlands, heading in the direction of north west england. But there is some party mist and fog elsewhere and the of ice. The rain, sleet and snow out of Northern Ireland by nine oclock. Still across southern scotland, getting into Northern England. Some clear skies on the other side of that, the risk of ice in scotland. We also have some showers, which will turn increasingly wintry and the wind will strengthen. At the same time we have got this weather front producing the rain, sleet and snow, moving out of southern scotland, and moving out of southern scotland, and moving across to Northern England and also parts of wales. The pennines could see five centimetres of fresh snow today. Some of that will get down to lower levels aCross North West wales. Where we have got the freezing fog, a lot of that will lift, some of it into low cloud. Where it states that will suppress the temperature. Wherever you are to it will feel cold. This evening and overnight we could see some further heavy snow across the pennines. Some of that getting down to low levels in northern in that. Also into wales and the north West Midlands for some snow showers in the south west. 0nce again, the risk of ice and it is going to be another cold night ahead. It is indeed, carol thang. The number of patients being treated for covid in hospitals across the uk has risen above 30,000. More than 1,000 deaths were reported in the latest 24 hour period the highest since last april. 0ur medical editor fergus walsh has been allowed to film inside one of londons busiest intensive care units. And just to warn you, some viewers may find the images in this report upsetting. Intensive care is under pressure like never before. After christmas it just sort of like never before. After christmas itjust sort of hit me. I have seen a couple of people within the short timei a couple of people within the short time i spent in hospital, they didnt make it. From a relentless rise in covid admissions. How long can you keep going like this . At this place, about a week. Staff fear burn out. This place, about a week. Staff fear burnout. The nurses are broken. The mental load is huge. The toll is immense. My emotions are all over the place. Scared, sad, petrified, worried. This should be an operating theatre. But there is no surgery here. Instead it has been converted into an intensive care unit. The number of cold outpatients in londons hospitals has doubled in just two weeks. Covid patients. They are more stressed than at the peak last april. We have got three times as many critically ill patients in this hospital as we normally have. We have managed to stretch and spread to cover that, but that cant go on forever. Intensive care is expanding across University College hospital. A childrens area now for desperately sick adults. Every day more awards are being transformed into icu, ready for the next influx. But senior staff are worried. Weve got plans that we can expand for another week at this stage, but after that week at this stage, but after that we need to see it slowed down or we are going to see the care we deliver suffer, i think. Are going to see the care we deliver suffer, ithink. We are going to see the care we deliver suffer, i think. We would be running something on staff you just couldnt physically look after critically ill patients. Covid is made this a winter like no other. Attila is 67. 0ver winter like no other. Attila is 67. Over the holidays Coronavirus Spread through his family. After christmas it just sort of through his family. After christmas itjust sort of hit me. Itjust sort of went back. I couldnt breathe at all. I didnt think id actually make it through. Youre gasping. Its like, you know, there is no oxygen around. Frightening . Sorry . Frightening . Very, very frightening. Very. There are three pregnant women in intensive care. Rachel is due in five weeks. Let every mother put her child before herself. Both she and her baby are doing well. You cant do anything that will harm the baby, obviously. They look after my baby so well. All the time they come in and check in, monitoring the baby is happy. You are looking after two people. Theyre saving lives. The demands on staff are unrelenting. And on their families too. Alice demands on staff are unrelenting. And on theirfamilies too. Alice has young children, cared for by grandparents in scotland during the first peak. My five and seven year old daughters, we sent them away because we were not sure how we would manage. I had my five year old in tears last night at the thought of another lockdown because she thought that meant i was sending her away again. She is most worried about the impact on nurses, the bedrock of care in icu. It is not uncommon at the moment that i can come to work and walking to find nurses crying. The physical and mental load is huge. And im really worried that were going to break a lot of nurses. And what about the doctors as well . And doctors and doctors as well . And doctors and doctors too. Its emotionally distressing for the staff, the things we are seeing. I mean, im used to seeing that but this is different. Intensive care nursing is highly specialised. Usually theyre one to one with patients. Now responsible for three, four or five, with other staff filling the gaps. We are so stretched we have to prioritise. And prioritising care is not what the nhs that i grew up in, we shouldnt have to choose which patient gets which care first. Ashley says she has never had to make decisions like this before. People asking for your help and you dont know who to help first. The patients are losing their lives at a dramatic speed. We are notjust getting older people. This is young people we are getting, people my age. I have reported from here several times during the pandemic andi several times during the pandemic and i am always struck by the professionalism and dedication of staff. But this is a system under strain like never before. The warning signs here could not be clearer. The nhs is now on the brink. Unless infection rates start to fault soon, then it could seriously impact patient care, and not just for those with seriously impact patient care, and notjust for those with covid. Seriously impact patient care, and not just for those with covid. These are not just for those with covid. These a re really not just for those with covid. These are really serious consequences. And if we get to that point we cant offer anybody itu, not just if we get to that point we cant offer anybody itu, notjust Covid Patients, but anyone who has a Traffic Accident or a heart attack or stroke, whatever it is, we wont have any more capacity to take them in. For now, the trust is coping. Cancer operations are continuing, though most nonurgent surgery is cancelled. Hello. Imjust pleasedi am still alive. Gerald is awaiting chemotherapy for lung cancer and had been shielding but still caught coronavirus. The only thing i can think is from opening some packaging or some delivery i had. It put me back. Its quite frightening. You know, you just dont know how youre getting your next breath. All right, dad. Love you lots. Love you. He wa nts to dad. Love you lots. Love you. He wants to get home to his daughters. When you have got young ones behind, thatis when you have got young ones behind, that is your worry. You fight for your life for them and you want to give them a lie. The next few weeks could be the biggest challenge the nhs has faced in its history. And it will be eight staff who will bear the brunt for all of us. It isa it is a sobering piece. We can speak with fergus now. Good morning. Unlike the rest of us, you have been on wards before. But this was a glimpse inside a critical ca re this was a glimpse inside a Critical Care unit. I dont know at the end of the day, that working day, when you got home, what are your thoughts . Seeing something first hand is a different experience . It is. And these visits to intensive care and, you know, i go infora to intensive care and, you know, i go in for a day, but those staff are they are they day after day, for nearly a year now. One of the things that really struck me, and i feel quite emotional about it, is just seeing the tiredness, the exhaustion on theirfaces, seeing the tiredness, the exhaustion on their faces, etched there. You know, some of these staff are really suffering ptsd. They are suffering Mental Health problems. The sickness rates are double normal. Many are self isolating. I spoke to one doctor who, during the first lockdown, her husband is also a front line doctor, they send their children away to go with grandparents in scotland during the first lockdown. So many have spent a lot of time away from their families and then they worry when they go home, are they going to bring home the virus . They are going through a huge amount. Then the patients, these numbers, extraordinary. More than 30,000 people now in hospital with covid. Its a very difficult and frightening time. with covid. Its a very difficult and frightening time. I think it was actually one of the nurses you spoke to who said, you just dont know who to who said, you just dont know who to help first. A lot of people watching that report, a moment in time in one particular unit, will be asking that very thing you were addressing, to what extent is that replicated across the uk . Well, i have already heard another doctor at another major London Hospital today talk about concerns over the quality of care that they can give. Now in intensive care, intensive care nurses, they are highly specialised, highly trained. And they are perfectionists. And normally, they have one to one nursing. But now they are looking after three, four, sometimes even five patients. And the gap is being filled by less trained staff, often nurses, at University College hospital. The nurses have come over from great 0rmond street. There have been medical students and even sometimes doctors. What they are concerned about the quality of care that they can give. 0ne about the quality of care that they can give. One of the really important messages today is that if you have, well if you have covid, and youre seriously ill, you must seek help, but if you have a non covid condition, a heart attack ora non covid condition, a heart attack or a stroke, if you find a lump or a bump which could be cancerous, you must seek legal help. That is the clear message from the nhs, because during the first lockdown, remarkably, a of emergency admissions for non covid related things, they fell dramatically. That in itself cost lives. So its important to get the message that no matter how much stress the nhs comes under, and it will come under huge stress in the coming weeks, you know, its there for really serious illness, although a lot of nonurgent surgery is being cancelled in many of the hardest hospitals. Fergus, thank you very much. Lets speak to chris hopson, chief executive of nhs providers, which represents hospital trusts in england. And dr shondipon laha, whos a Critical Care consultant. Good morning to you both. Doctor, lets begin with you. I want to let our viewers do know what you do. You basically run the intensive care unit, looking after the sickest patients in the hospital. How are you now . How has life changed for you now . How has life changed for you now . How has life changed for you now and how are you coping . Well, im based in the north west, so weve seen changes over the last year or so. We had the first surge, which meant our baseline beds increased dramatically. Then we had a second surge at about november time, 0ctober, a second surge at about november time, october, november time, a second surge at about november time, 0ctober, novembertime, and we went through a downward slope from that surge, but we have never gone back to the baseline number of beds that we had ten months or so ago. Were starting to see increases across the region in the number of patients being infected in the public. That is feeding into the number of patients attending hospital and the number of patients were seeing in Critical Care units and respiratory wards are needing much more intensive therapies. It is a problem because you cant see it settling at any point. How has it affected you, your shifts, your work pattern and your colleagues . Well, i think. I mean, i do both intensive ca re think. I mean, i do both intensive care and anaesthetic. I havent done an anaesthetic for a year, pretty much. My colleagues and i are doing additional shifts as and when we can. We are doing more frequent weekends and nights. The nursing staff are having to do the same. The Emergency Department doctors, the medical consultants and respiratory co nsulta nts medical consultants and respiratory consultants and all their staff, are having to come in. On consultants and all their staff, are having to come in. 0njunior staff, there are only a fixed number, they are having to do more shifts than they would normally do. You can start seeing the burden. There is an increased sickness rate. It is tiring and it is mentally draining. Lets pick up some of those thoughts with chris hobson. Welcome to the programme. Maybe you could widen the picture about the pressures. People are familiar with the phrases, the pressures , are familiar with the phrases, the pressures, how difficult that is, breaking point. I mean, we know there is a lag now. The estimate is some ten days to two weeks before the greatest numbers are in hospital because of the christmas, new year period. How do you see this next immediate couple of weeks . Morning, charlie. Well, ithought immediate couple of weeks . Morning, charlie. Well, i thought the immediate couple of weeks . Morning, charlie. Well, ithought the piece by fergus was extraordinary and it demonstrates the power of television, so you can absolutely see what is going on inside our hospitals, but it is also Community Services and Mental Health as well, it is everybody under extreme degrees of pressure. And yes, youre absolutely right. If you look at the infection rates at the moment, you can see that we still got more pressure to come. The best guest guess we are operating on at the moment is the peak will probably come ina moment is the peak will probably come in a couple of weeks. I thought fergus bus p showed you that every hospital is doing everything it possibly can to expand capacity as quickly as possible. University couege quickly as possible. University College Hospital london is one of a number where we have managed to double or triple Critical Care capacity over the last few weeks. There is a bit more to come. You know, i was interested they were using the figure of another week. But this is going to be really, really difficult. And i thought of the bid that the piece really captured wasjust the bid that the piece really captured was just the relentlessness of this, and of the pressure it is putting on our staff. When you talk to our chief executive two, that is the thing that worries them the most, the huge pressure that we are putting on our front line doctors and nurses, but also the people behind them who are supporting. Doctor, do you want to pick up on that . Chris was talking there about the potential, may be, still within hospitals to expand capacity. What about you . What hospitals to expand capacity. What about you . What about you and your hospital . Have you got any more possibility to expand capacity . Yes. The hospitals across the region are planning additional capacity. We have never gone back into a number our normal footprint. Have never gone back into a number our normalfootprint. I think many of the hospitals in the area have been running at a higher level all the way through. The extra capacity of the challenge with those areas is they are not designed for intensive care patients. The staffing, you have the same number of staff. You might be able to drag some more untrained staff in, but this is a very stressful environment for people who arent used to this. And in many cases have intentionally chosen not to do this sort ofjob. So we can expand. There are other ways we can relieve the pressure. We can transfer patients out of other hospitals to the regions and nationally. We make sure that eve ryo ne nationally. We make sure that everyone gets the same quality of care. We can then start looking at having to delay planned activities while we redeploy those staff as well. So there are a few more stages well. So there are a few more stages we can go through before there is any risk of being overwhelmed completely. Chris, do you have any information about when the peak may be . At the moment, we saw the piece, and talking to the doctor as well, do you have any indication as to when the peak may be . Well, its very difficult to tell. I mean, it will be different in each region. I think what is interesting is if you look at yesterdays infection data, what you will see is that in london the rate of increase appears to have actually started to level off. What ifi actually started to level off. What if ijust give you a figure, so the doctors from the north west. If you look at the infection rate in the north west over the past week, they have increased by 69 . In exactly as you have been saying, we know the hospital admissions tend to lag by about a week to ten days. So you can see that a 69 increase in infections over the last week in the north west is going to lead to higher admissions. I thought the doctor put absolutely spot on, which is they have never really come down in terms of discharging patients from the second phase. I mean, the good news, and its important to rememberthis, good news, and its important to remember this, one of the reasons we have this issue is because we have actually managed to treat people and improve outcomes thanks to the fantastic work the nhs is doing. Far fewer people are dying when they come into hospital because we have worked out how to treat them effectively. But the downside of that, if you dont mind me describing it like that, as we have much larger numbers of people staying in hospital much longer as they recover, when previously they would have died. So in a sense it is a classic. That is a piece of fa nta stically a classic. That is a piece of fantastically good news but it does put pressure on the nhs. What i think again we are saying, and what the doctor is saying and fergus is saying, as ever, our front line nhs staff are doing an extraordinaryjob to carry on providing the best possible care to everybody. And i thought that message was particularly important, which is, if you have got, if you are ill and you think you need care, please, please, forward , think you need care, please, please, forward, help us to help you because far too many people in that first phase, as fergus was saying, didnt come forward, and as a result of their conditions worsened and its actually more difficult to treat them. So, i know we are very busy. But please, if you need help, ring 111 , but please, if you need help, ring 111, go online, and if you have an emergency, ring 999, but please dont not come forward. Help us to help you. Indeed. Chris hopson thank you. And doctor, thank you. I am going to say a big thank you to you and yourteam. And going to say a big thank you to you and your team. And i wish you well. Obviously as chris indicated, the peakis obviously as chris indicated, the peak is coming but we wish you well and wish you rest as well. Thank you. Thank you. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london, im Victoria Hollins. Londons hospitals could be overwhelmed by covid wthin two weeks, according to documents seen by the Health Service journal. The publication has seen the briefing given to the capitals most senior doctors. In it nhs england showed that even if the number of Covid Patients grew at the lowest rate considered likely, and capacity is increased, including opening londons nightingale hospital, the nhs here would be short of nearly 2,000 general and acute and intensive care beds by 19 january. Meanwhile, the excel centre in east london has been announced as one of seven new mass Covid Vaccination hubs across england. Expected to be staffed by the nhs and volunteers, operations will Begin Next Week in a bid to meet the governments target of vaccinating 14 Million People in the uk by february. A charitys offering care homes a bit ofjoy for residents who have to stay indoors for their own safety. Its a new video on demand service, designed for people with dementia. So far, two homes in richmond have signed up, along with a home in hampton where 88 year old barbara lives. Barbara can be quite tearful at times with her dementia. So, this really does help, because it takes her mind off everything that makes her upset. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. On the tube, there are severe delays on the metropolitan line. And london 0verground also part suspended between gospel oak and Upper Holloway on the m25, two lanes are blocked clockwise towards the clacket Lane Services following a collision. Traffic is slow but moving for about half a mile on the approach. In bexleyheath, the a2 East Rochester way is down to one lane in both directions at the danson interchange, with london bound delays back to hall place. In harlesden, the a404 harrow road is partly blocked westbound at scrubs lane, following an overturned lorry, with eastbound delays back to harlesden high street. Now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. Good morning. A cold and frosty start to the day, with temperatures slightly below freezing. Watch out for a few icy stretches towards eastern Home Counties and where we saw the showers yesterday. Its quite a murky start to the morning, with plenty of cloud around towards the east. Further west, a few mist and fog patches, and where the fog doesnt lift all day, which is a possibility, temperatures wont rise above freezing. Otherwise highs of one or two degrees, but it will stay dry with light winds and quite a lot of cloud, and certainly feeling very chilly. Not too much in the way of brightness at all. Overnight, we do the whole thing over again, but it will probably feel colder. Overnight lows of around minus two celsius, and mist and fog patches on friday means it will feel cold again, but it should be dry. And as we head into the weekend, we will keep those cold, frosty nights. There should be sunshine around on saturday, a little cloudy on sunday and temperatures start to improve. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Plenty more on our website at the usual address. Now though its back to naga and charlie. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Naga Munchetty and charlie stayt. With schools closed to most children across the uk once more the challenges faced by disadvantaged pupils, who dont have access to the equipment they need have reappeared. Fiona lamdin has been finding out how two families are coping with Remote Learning with limited devices at home. The ogu family in bristol, home schooling with no computer during the first lockdown was very hard. It got to a point that i was feeling depressed. I felt scared and i was worried, not just for myself, but the phone, but how could four people be using one phone to do schoolwork . It was a nightmare. Are you worried that your children will fall behind this time . I am, honestly. If i could get a laptop for my children, i would be over the moon, honestly. And here is the holgate family in swindon as they face the latest lockdown. We met them six months ago, when they were home schooling six children on one device. In the last lockdown ijust had my mums phone and all of my siblings got to go first to do their homework and i had to wait until bedtime to get my hour slot. So that was really hard. But a viewer donated a tablet, so zion and her siblings are hoping they wont fall behind this time. They will have an hour slot on two devices, and it will be much easierfor me to do my homework without all of them hassling and fighting. There is a lot less arguing for the devices, because kids are impatient, arent they . And for many families, accessing Online Schoolwork is just not possible. And so at this primary in somerset, a drivethru, but instead of fast food, the school is dishing up Home Learning packs. The children have got devices, really strong broadband connections and did really well in the last lockdown. They didnt really fall behind at all. The children that did not have those devices fell behind by approximately six months. And one of those was 14 year old charlie. When we met him in the summer he was struggling and only had a phone. And then a viewer donated a laptop. My exams were better than i expected. What do you put that down to . If it wasnt for the laptop, it wouldnt have happened. It made a massive impact on my future, like if i was going for an apprenticeship or career. Its a life changer and a game changer. Yeah. Back in bristol we were still filming with the ogu family when one of the teachers arrived for them to borrow. Your laptop is just here if you want to grab it. Oh, my goodness the government say they are committed to giving out million devices to help throughout the pandemic. For edwina and herfamily, they think this one is a miracle. Thank you so very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. If you have a laptop or tablet that you want to donate then please go to bbc. Co. Uk makeadifference where you can find details of charities who will help get them safely wiped and sent to the children that need them most. It will be wiped of all of the personal data and then well be ready to be sent to the children who need them most. Were nowjoined by secondary School Headteacher ben davis, and the chief executive of the good things foundation, helen milner. Good morning to both of you. I wonder if i can ask you first, you area wonder if i can ask you first, you are a head teacher, so what is the situation at school . The situation at school is that we have around 50 pupils in the school who are children of key workers and vulnerable pupils and by the end of today we will have given out virtually all of our laptops including some of our own stock to ensure children have got the best access possible to education. Does that mean all the children who have got la pto ps that mean all the children who have got laptops need laptops have got them . It doesnt. There are some young people who although they might have a single laptop in the home but they are sharing with other siblings and with parents working from home and with parents working from home and the pressures on those families are immense, so this spreads across the spectrum of backgrounds and income. Not to put too fine a point on it, you need more laptops, in your school, you need more laptops. I think all schools would like more la pto ps, i think all schools would like more laptops, absolutely, yeah. That is absolutely the case on the government has also said yesterday in the house of commons are young people who are digitally excluded can attend school in person, but doing that has implications for the capacity of teachers in school and other members of staff to deliver live lessons and lessons on other platforms. That is a tricky situation and perhaps we can come back to that in a moment. Helen, you area back to that in a moment. Helen, you are a charity that has helped distribute the laptops or online devices. How many have you managed to get out there and how are you being contacted and how many people asking for help . So far we have supported 12,000 households with the device, so that is families and adults but we have been overwhelmed with demand, so we work with thousands of Community Organisations up thousands of Community Organisations up and down the country to do that to give help on the ground and its notjust the devices to give help on the ground and its not just the devices on the laptop, you need data, access to the internet and also for the parents they often need help to learn how to use the internet themselves and make sure they keep the children safe. You made a good point about access to the internet, because its not just about having a physical device to use, its about having 46 or wi fi or the ability to access the internet and that is Something Else that the data providers have been urged to help out with as well. Thats right, but 9 of children living in a household without an Internet Connection, so that data is absolutely critical and many of those are children in the poorer households who will also be on pay as you go, so mobile phone operators such as eee and others have said that they can help children, families to extend the data on their mobile phones so they can use them as hotspots, so its really critical that schools and local authorities do go online and apply to make sure that those children can get that data. Im not sure if you are able to see the film, but there was a young man called charlie who at the beginning was trying to do all of his work on mobile phone and i dont know if you have students in a similar situation, but is it as clear cut, can you see, day by day, the difference in progress between a youngster who has access to a laptop oran youngster who has access to a laptop or an Internet Connection and someone who doesnt. Can you literally see the progression, the change the downward curve . You absolutely can. It was really interesting to see that piece earlier because there are lots of young people in schools accessing things on smaller mobile devices, which is not good enough to write an essay on or a powerpoint and they wa nt to essay on or a powerpoint and they want to get a laptop or equivalent and what we are able to see almost insta ntly and what we are able to see almost instantly is them logging on and accessing resources. We have been able to track those attendances in the last few days and that has been instrumental particular for year 11, who are at the highest level of risk here in ensuring that they get the best possible access to education, so yes, we can see that. With that in mind, helen, one thing that should be pointed out is thatjust because a household has one device, if as more than one child in the household, that is not enough. Thats right, so we are calling to fix the digital divide, so covid has exposed the divide that was there before, so these children and families bill already at a disadvantage, so what we really want is on the good side of the digital divide, affordable, good quality internet for everybody and a device for every child, because they need to take part in online lessons and they need to do Online School work and of course those parents might well be working online or looking for work online and accessing essential services, so we want every household to have affordable, good quality internet and a device for every child. Helen milner, thank you, and ben davies, in altrincham, thank you very much as well. Its just the Ripple Effects of the announcement on monday and the fact that it came suddenly after the assurance on sunday that schools would remain open. Three Million School meals are served in england every day. So mondays last minute decision not to fully reopen primaries meant a huge amount of waste. One school in lancashire reported binning 200 meals on tuesday alone. They cant all go to food banks there isnt the space. And they cant go directly to families before rotting because of the logistical challenges. It also means wholesalers and suppliers are now trying to resell stock before it goes off. One of those people is tom who joins us from his warehouse in bury. Good morning, wearing a mask because you are in your place of work, and you are in your place of work, and you supply schools and care homes, thats a big part of your Business Model with 50 members of staff looking towards you at the moment, so how big a blow was the decision on monday, particularly the timing . Good morning, nina. It was a massive blow on monday to be told after one day back to be told atm and we couldnt communicate with our customers. It was a huge blow but we went customers. It was a huge blow but we we nt a nyway customers. It was a huge blow but we went anyway because of the need to serve Free School Meals and key worker children but most of the stuff we sent was rejected and came back, leading to another problem. The issue is the length of time and it has been the same in the previous lockdown is, maybe not as short, but we are still needing two weeks notice for the supply chain to turn the tap off and weve not received that in any of the lockdown. Explained to us, because people will look at the produce behind you and assume it can stay on shelves until schools reopen and it wont go to waste, or you could hand it to a charity, so why are neither of those options possible . There are a few issues. Im stood in the ambient warehouse so things tend to have a longer life, but the first lockdown went on for six months because of the School Holiday period, so even the School Holiday period, so even the ambient stuff went out of date and we havent got a firm end date to the lockdown, so even ambient things with long life will go out of date, but we have a large chiller in another room and that has got Fresh Produce in and we have hundreds of thousands of pounds of cheese and ham and steak and cooked meat that obviously have a shorter life and thatis obviously have a shorter life and that is the chief concern here. Those in hospitality and retail received more support this week, industry specific, from the government and that is something you havent seen in the supply chain. What would you like to say to the chancellor . Id like to appeal directly to the chancellor and Prime Minister because we have been asking for help for months now and we need three forms of help, we need a business support package to deal directly with the stock loss we have seen already and will see more of, because that is a direct result of the short notice we have been given, having to stop diet stockpile for a potential no deal brexit and we also need business rates, and all our customers, even supermarkets got, and some of them have famously paid back, a small fraction of that money would cover the whole wholesale industry and really make a difference, but we also now have a situation that is dire, that the Industry Needs grants and we have seen the devolved powers have actually recognised this fact and given grants to wholesale specifically, but in england weve not seen anything yet and it seems to be falling on deaf ears. Tom, we wish you the best of luck clearing the backlog behind you and hopefully making some profit in the process. The government told us there is the furlough scheme that companies can access and the upcoming budget will help support businesses and jobs but the federation of wholesale distributors said that these big wholesalers are at losing private contracts in restaurants, losing Public Sector contracts and if these holes keep appearing on their Business Model, they lose the economy of scale and then what happens to providing hospitals and schools when they reopen . These businesses have to survive this. Yes, the supply chain, keeping the system going for when life does get back to normal. Nina, thank you so much. Heres carol with a look at this mornings weather. Frosty pictures this morning, carol. Thats right. Weve had it all and good morning to you and we have had frost, ice, fog and some snow as well. Beautiful weather watchers picture taken from shropshire and you can see the visibility is not particularly good and we have had sleet and snow moving south through scotland, Northern England, Northern Ireland and eventually that will go into North West Wales through the course of the day, but this morning we still have freezing fog patches, especially around the midlands, north west england and still the risk of ice and a met Office Warning for the risk of ice. This is the weather front which has been producing the sleet and snow rain through the night, more or less clear in Northern Ireland and in scotla nd clear in Northern Ireland and in scotland there is the risk of ice, and you can see the shower is turning wintry to sea level and accompanied later in the day by gusty winds. As we go through the day, you can see how the weather front sinks south and we could see as much as five centimetres of snow following in the pennines and some of that gazing down to lower levels and some getting into North West Wales but we hang on to the freezing fog and there will be some of it that will stick all day and that will suppress the temperatures but where it lifts we will see brightness in the south and also brightness in the south and also brightness between the showers in Northern Ireland and scotland. It is going to feel cold wherever you are. Through the evening and overnight, this is what we think will happen. The forecast tonight is quite complicated and we think there will be another ten centimetres of fresh snow falling on the pennines with some of it getting down to lower levels and some snow across parts of wales getting into north west england as well. Wintry showers across the south west and a return to freezing fog patches and also the risk of ice and as the snow showers and gusty winds continue across the far north of scotland. These are the temperatures, freezing or below, but in parts of southern scotland it could be as low as 5 or 6. Tomorrow the weather front producing the rain, sleet and snow will continue to journey southwards and we think the sleet and snow will be through wales, Northern England, getting into the midlands and south west. You might see some in the south east but its less likely and then behind it we will start with showers in scotland and that will fade as a ridge of High Pressure bills and across scotland and Northern Ireland and you will see a and Northern Ireland and you will seeafair and Northern Ireland and you will see a fair bit of sunshine in the afternoon but still nonetheless it will feel cold. Talking of cold, first thing on saturday morning you will certainly notice it, looking at a widespread frost and southern and eastern scotland seeing the lowest temperatures of around 10 or 11 but there will be a lot of sunshine around and a lot of dry weather except for in the north west because here we have a weather front coming in and that is introducing thicker cloud, hill snow and some rain. But Something Else it is going to do is change the wind direction to westerly, so note the temperature in stornoway, 7 degrees, still cold across the uk, but on sunday more of us will see temperatures a bit higher than they have been of late. I want to show everybody what it looks like outside the studio this morning, carol. Mike said, it is snowing outside and we were like, can we show the picture and itjust looks kind of misty outside in salford this morning and mike saying it is not quite sticking, so carol, do you have the resources to predict when you will get big lumps of snow, sticky snow or fine snow . Not to hand at the moment. But what youve got at salford is freezing fog and also some snow, so you will have the risk of ice, so be careful on your way home. Im not an expert but big lumps of snow i believe are called snowfla kes. Lumps of snow i believe are called snowflakes. I dont care if you too are ganging up on me at all. What is are ganging up on me at all. What is a big lump of snow . When i get a big snowball i will show you what a big lump of snow looks night. Mcgreal if you want to see a big lump of snow, go to the top of the pennines. There is proper snow here and it is nice, gentle snow you see falling, because there are different kinds, there is sticky, things that look like snow that arent snow, grapple, that sort of thing and there is more to it than meets the eye, and forecasting snow is a very fine line from when it is rain and when it turns to snow. That is why you always like us asking if it will be a white christmas. A bit early for that. You cant say that now. Carol, lovely seeing you.

And last yea rs hello from the other side. And last years winner, celeste. Joining us now is the sound of 2021 winner pa salieu. Very good morning to you. And congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. We saw the moment where you had one and it was obvious it was a surprise for you. What has been the reaction since people found out . I wasnt really expecting it. I was happy enough being picked in the top ten. I wasnt expecting this this early in my career, you know . You were in some great company, celeste last year, adele, sam smith and they have had amazing careers Going Forward and what is really interesting is that the music that you create is so different as well, and that is being embraced much more widely now. Why do you think that is . The music is just me, its where im coming from, just me, its where im coming from, just me. But people are engaging with it, arent they . That is the difference. Grime for example is largely seen as london centric but you are writing about coventry a lot more and your experiences there and people are picking up on it and are being attracted to it. Why do you think that is . My experiences are relatable, there are front lines everywhere. There are a Million People like me coming from where i am coming from, just explaining my story. I tell you what i am thinking, as im talking to you, im thinking, as im talking to you, im thinking to myself that one thing is izzy is a wonderful thing you have won it, but you will have to do more interviews like this because mum more people will want to talk to you because there will be more attention on what you are doing. Are you co mforta ble on what you are doing. Are you comfortable putting a bit more of yourself out there because i know a lot of artists just want the music to do the talking, and they feel like sometimes its a bit awkward to have to tell people who they are apart from that. You are correct, right now, i feel awkward as hell and ill have to get used to it. Its not for me to say how you feel, but i am picking up on a vibe that you are thinking, just listen to my music, dont ask me questions, listen to my music. Is that what you think . Yeah, exactly. Exactly. I dont really know what to say. We wish you all the best in the future and hopefully you will be getting to do some live performances, maybe. Definitely. Definitely. Hopefully when this current lockdown situation improves, but we will adapt regardless. We are all hoping for that. Good to talk to you and good luck for the future. Thank you very much. I like that. I like the fact that, you know, its the music and its tricky, it is. Youre watching bbc breakfast. Its 8. 59. This is bbc news with the latest headlines.
