Good morning and welcome to bbc news. Thousands of services will be held across the uk to remember those who died in two world wars and other conflicts. In london, veterans and military personnel willjoin members of the royal family for the National Service of remembrance at the cenotaph. For the first time, the queen will watch proceedings from a nearby balcony. 0ur royal correspondent Sarah Campbell has more. The queen and the duke of edinburgh attending last nights festival of remembrance. This weekend is one of the most significant in the royal calendar, one the duke, despite now being retired, did not want to miss. But this year there will be one significant difference. Her majestys equerry hands her the wreath, which she places first at the foot of the cenotaph. The service of remembrance has changed very little over the years and one of the key moments has been when the queen lays her wreath on the cenotaph on behalf of britain and the commonwealth. Its a role she has performed all but six times throughout her 65 year reign. 0nly pregnancy or absence due to foreign royal tours have prevented herfrom doing so. This year, instead ofjoining the line up here on whitehall, the queen and the duke of edinburgh will instead watch proceedings from the balcony of the foreign and commonwealth office. The prince of wales will lay the queens wreath on her behalf. Music last post. The decision to watch rather than physically take part in one of the key royal engagements will not have been taken lightly. It is a recognition that the queen is now 91 years old, and the ceremony requires standing in often cold temperatures for around half an hour, and then walking backwards, navigating a step along the way. But the change is also perhaps the most visible signal yet of the gradual transition of responsibilities from the queen to her son and heir. One day, it will be Prince Charles role as king to lead the nation in remembrance. And we will get more from sarah a little later live from the cenotaph. A former metropolitan Police Commissioner has confirmed that he knew pornographic material had allegedly been found on a computer used by the first secretary of state, damian green, in 2008. Sir Paul Stephenson said he was briefed about the claims but regarded them as a side issue to a criminal investigation into leaks from the home office. The allegations were first made public last week by former met assistant commissioner bob quick. This morning, mr green issued a statement saying that no allegations about the presence of improper material on his parliamentary computers had ever been put to him or to the parliamentary authorities by the police. He said he could only assume that they were being made now for ulterior motives. Jon donnison reports. Damian green, effectively the prime ministers deputy, is one of theresa mays closest colleagues. Already under investigation over allegations of inappropriate behaviour towards a female activist, accusations he denies, the first secretary of state is facing more questions about pornography allegedly found on his computer. The claim dates back to 2008, when police raided mr Greens Office as part of an investigation into leaks from the home office. When the allegations were first made last week by a former senior officer in the metropolitan police, damian green offered a strong denial. He called the story completely untrue and a disreputable political smear, saying police have never suggested improper material was found on his parliamentary computer. Now, though, the former metropolitan Police Commissioner sir Paul Stephenson, seen here with theresa may in 2010, has confirmed he was aware that pornographic material had allegedly been found. Hes told the bbc he was briefed about the allegation, but said it was a side issue and not relevant to the criminal investigation into the home office leaks. This morning damian green responded to sir pauls claim, but he did not deny the material was on his computer, only that the police had ever asked him about it. He said he reiterated that no allegations about the presence of improper material on his parliamentary computers had ever been put to him or to the parliamentary authorities by the police, and said that he assumed the allegations were being made nine years later for ulterior motives. Theresa may has already lost two cabinet ministers this month. This story will only add to the growing feeling her government is under siege. 0ur political correspondent, tom barton, is here. Tom, another twist in the saga about damian greens computer, what was or was not on it. How much trouble do you think he is in . Sir Paul Stephenson wading into the argument makes the case about this material, this alleged material, feel a bit more, weighing heavily, i guess, a bit more strongly. It is all part of this inquiry into allegations surrounding damian green, both around this alleged material on a computer that was seized from his office and also allegations that he made inappropriate approaches to a conservative Party Activist back in 2015. Now, on the allegations the material was found on his computer, when this was first suggested last weekend, mr green released a statement, he said the allegations about the material and the computer, now nine years old, are false and disreputable political smears. Today we have had a fresh statement from him in which he says, he reiterates that no allegations about the presence of improper material on his parliamentary computers have ever been put to him or to the parliamentary authorities by the police. The sunday papers again today full of stories about the pressures on theresa may. Interesting letter reported in the mail 0n theresa may. Interesting letter reported in the mail on sunday from michael gove and boris johnson, reported in the mail on sunday from michael gove and borisjohnson, two of the brexiteers, putting more pressure on her . Absolutely, as we heard injohns peace there it has been a difficult few weeks but theresa may, pressure on one of her closest allies in cabinet, two of her cabinet ministers forced to resign in the last week or so, and, as you say, the sunday papers today, the mail 0n sunday talking about this letter which was sent by borisjohnson and michael gove, apparently saying they are profoundly worried about preparations within government on the prime ministers. And while were on michael gove, the government planning a new watchdog to protect the environment post brexit . Yes, this is ahead of the detailed parliamentary scrutiny starting on the eu withdrawal bill on tuesday and wednesday this week, this is a bill that will transfer european law on to the british statute books. The government has been under a lot of pressure around this, hundreds of amendments have been tabled, and across the political spectrum, including from some conservatives, there is opposition to parts of the bill and i think what we have got today, this proposal to launch a new environmental watchdog, one which will really focus on ensuring that green issues are front and centre in brexit, is partly an attempt by the government to illustrate to those mps particularly within their own party that, where there are real substantive issues raised in this bill, they are willing to listen and make changes. 0k, tom, thank you very much indeed for being with us. President trump and the north Korean Leader have resumed their war of words over pyongyangs Nuclear Weapons programme. In response to being called a dotard by north koreas foreign ministry, mr trump has tweeted, wondering why kim jong un would insult him by calling him old.

President trump needs his asian partners by him on trade and denuclearising north korea. And thats what hes made this trip about. He even made an offer of friendship to north Korean Leader kimjong un. I think anythings a possibility. Strange things happen in life. That might be a strange thing to happen, but its certainly a possibility. If that did happen, it would be a good thing for, i can tell you, for north korea, but it would also be good for lots of other places, and it would be good for the world. But even on this international trip, domestic politics have taken control of the agenda. President trump had to clarify what he meant when he said russias president putin didnt believe he had meddled in the us election. I believe that he feels that he and russia did not meddle in the election. As to whether i believe it or not, im with our agencies, especially as currently constituted with their leadership, i believe in our intel agencies, our intelligence agencies, ive worked with them very strongly. Donald trumps asian tour was supposed to be a chance for him to show off us strength in the region and build new relationships with his partners here by putting America First in matters to do with trade, as well as tackle the issue of north korea. But, instead, this trip has been overshadowed by the issue of whether russia meddled in the election in the united states, questions that will follow him as he makes his final stop on the last leg of his tour in manila.

Lets speak to our correspondent Sarah Campbell, whos at horse guards parade. The commemoration is a little bit different this year . Indeed, a small but significant change with the prince of wales laying the wreath under half of the queen, rather than her doing it herself, the first time in her 65 year reign that that has been the case. 0ther year reign that that has been the case.

Essentially you were looking for submarines, escorting convoys looking for submarines underneath and one of the most significant days was during the d day landings, tell me of your involvement . The job of corvettes was to protect convoys, and it patrolled around convoys and tried to keep a submarines away so that they did not think the ships going across they did not think the ships going across sink the ships, not always successfully, but ourjob was to find them and to depth charge, keep them away, and to destroy them if possible, really.
