of symi last wednesday, his body was later recovered on a remote hillside following a four day search. from symi, our correspondent joe inwood reports. it was here on a rocky hillside that michael mosley was found. he was just metres from safety when he was seemingly overcome by the heat and collapsed. the people of this island and the greek authorities had done everything they could. despite that, he was not found for nearly four days. it was on that beach of agia marina that the body, which has now been identified as michael mosley, was found. he was found lying just to the right side of that fence you can see over there so really close to where people would have been relaxing and playing on this popular and busy beach. we spoke to a police source who said that the body of michael mosley had been there for a number of days. that the body of michael mosley had it was a tragic end to a story that had begun on wednesday when michael mosley left the beach where he'd been with his wife clare atabout1.30pm. he was then picked up on a camera at a coffee shop here, a second one at a restaurant here, and then finally on one at a marina before he walked out of town, heading towards agia marina. but despite an extensive search and rescue operation involving police, fire, helicopters, dogs, even members of the public, in the end, he was found by accident. it emerged a greek television crew were filming with the mayor and only noticed the body in their shot when they got back to edit their pictures. translation: when we returned here in symi and the footage - was being prepared to send to athens, we spotted the body of a man. we informed the mayor and so the coastguard was immediately mobilized with the doctors. michael mosley�*s death was confirmed by his wife, clare. she said... a medical team carefully moved michael mosley to a waiting coastguard boat then to rhodes for a postmortem. there has been a genuine sense of shock, of sadness on this quiet island over the disappearance and death of michael mosley, a man most had never met. imagine then, the pain of those who knew and loved him. joe inwood, bbc news, on the greek island of symi. joe joins us live now from symi. morning, joe. very sad development yesterday. what has the mood being on the island since the news came out?

as i was reflecting in my piece there, there has been a real sense | there, there has been a real sense of sadness on this island. michael mosley was not famous here, to most of the people of symi he was another holiday—maker, one of the thousands that come here every year. but i think the fact that someone had gone missing whilst on the island has really captured this community. also, people have learned more about him and i have learned the genuine affection with which he is held in the uk, other countries where he is known as a broadcaster, and a writer, they have realised the sort of person that has gone missing on this island. there has been a palpable sense of distress here. it's also worth reflecting that the people of symi and the greek authorities really did everything they could to try to find michael mosley. there has been this huge search and rescue operation, we have seen, certainly huge in the context of 2500 people, with helicopters, police, fire, ordinary people and british holiday—makers trying to scour the hillside to try and find michael mosley. in the end it turns out there was nothing that could have been done, the cctv footage emerging has shown michael mosley collapsing just as he was approaching the beach, this is not confirmed, the postmortem will be taking place over the coming days, but it seemed he had an incident of some form on wednesday and was lying in that position ever since. so there was no search and rescue operation that could have saved his life. but this community has done everything it can do. it's also worth reflecting the sadness that his death has been met with around the world, he was obviously a hugely popular man. every single statement you hear talks about him being witty, generous, kind, one of his co—presenters talked about him being a national treasure. he's clearly someone that audiences held in huge affection. but his family are the ones who held him in such deep love and that statement from his wife was so heartfelt. you can see the sadness and the love that she had for her husband as well.— sadness and the love that she had for her husband as well. thank you so much, for her husband as well. thank you so much. joe. _ for her husband as well. thank you so much, joe, live _ for her husband as well. thank you so much, joe, live in _ for her husband as well. thank you so much, joe, live in symi. - for her husband as well. thank you so much, joe, live in symi. we - for her husband as well. thank you so much, joe, live in symi. we will so much, joe, live in symi. we will be reflecting on the life and career of michael mosley this morning here on the programme. jon has more of the day's news. the liberal democrats will pledge to rescue the health service when they launch their election manifesto later. if elected, the party has promised it would boost spending on health and social care, recruit thousands more gps and end what they describe as "dental deserts." 0ur political correspondent iain watson reports. the lib dems have been floating some ideas for reforming the health service for some time. but now the leader, sir ed davey, really wants to make a splash by putting what he calls a rescue package for the nhs at the heart of the party's manifesto. he says the nhs is in crisis in england. he's proposing a multi—billion pound cash injection over the next four years. he says this would give everyone the right to see a gp within seven days or within 2a hours if urgent, guarantee access to an nhs dentist for everyone needing urgent and emergency care, and improve early access to mental health services. sir ed davey has also been banging the drum for social care, often the junior partner in the health system. his manifesto will devote a whole chapter to it and will include the commitment to free social care for those who need it in their own homes. with both the conservatives and labour parties promising more resources for the health service, the lib dems have to be distinctive. they, like the other two parties, say they won't need to put up income tax to fund health care. but other taxes are available. we have identified areas where there is money available which has been spent we believe in the wrong way. for example, the massive tax cut for banks. £4 billion is available if we reverse that. the lib dems claim they're being more transparent on tax and spending than other parties and today they'll be setting out their political direction of travel. iain watson, bbc news. 0ur chief political correspondent henry zeffman is in westminster. henry, lib dem manifesto today, more over the next few days, this is the week when we get all of the detail, is it?

that's right, jon, we are expecting the liberal - is it? that's right, jon, we are | expecting the liberal democrat manifesto today to be followed later this week by the conservative manifesto and then the labour manifesto. a big moment for these campaigns, and it's certainly a big moment this week for the conservative campaign because you don't need me to tell you the conservatives have had a difficult few days. we haven't actually seen rishi sunak face questions from journalists since friday's very awkward questioning about his decision which he now says was a mistake to leave the d—day commemorations into nobody early. the conservatives are trying to switch the conversation today to neighbourhood policing, they have a plan which they say will recruit 8000 neighbourhood police officers, they haven't used that number before, over the course of the next parliament if they win. they say that breaks down to a new police officer for every ward in that breaks down to a new police officerfor every ward in england and wales. they say they would fund this by a 25% increase in viz a viz for people coming to the uk and also —— visa fees, and also foreign students would have to pay more to use the nhs. expect a debate over police numbers, labour have a similar —ish pledge, take 13,000 officers on the beat, conservatives saying only 4000 on new recruits compared to what they would recruit is 8000. let's see how the party debate that today. labour are not talking about police today but about child care, they are talking about using the space freed up in primary schools in england to create at least 3000 new nurseries for 100,000 children. why is the space there? because of falling birth rates, we have talked before about primary schools having more space that they used to add labour think that is an opportunity to solve some issues with childcare in england. childcare sector representatives broadly welcome this announcement they say the bigger problem remains, funding of the sector generally, and getting people to work in child care settings. that is another debate we will see play out this week as the parties give us much more detail on what they would do after the election. ., ~ , ., , the french president, emmanual macron, has called a snap election after his alliance suffered a big defeat by the hard—right in european union elections. many right—wing parties made gains across the eu last night, but the president of the european commission, ursula von der leyen, has described the projected results across the continent as a victory for the centre. christian fraser sent this report. we already know from the exit polls in these 27 countries that there has been an definitive shift to the right. so in austria, the freedom party top of the pile. geert wilders in the netherlands taking seven seats this time around. marine le pen in france, a record 32% of the vote. the afd in germany coming second to the cdu, csu there in germany. but already this election has provided us with some extraordinary news from france where emmanuel macron, whose party slumped to 15% of the vote, called a snap election, parliamentary elections coming last week injune and first week ofjuly. that is an enormous gamble on the back of a pretty humiliating defeat in the european parliamentary elections. so the impact of that shift to the right is still to be worked out i would think in the coming months as the parties arrange themselves in the various groupings. no question what the story is here, the shift to the right, and a very big backward step for the greens and the centrists. an inquest into the death of the teenager harry dunn is due to begin later. the 19—year—old was killed in a collision outside an american military base at raf croughton five years ago. us citizen anne sacoolas was given a suspended prison sentence after pleading guilty to criminal charges. the inquest is due to last four days. two people remain in critical condition after a funfair ride malfunctioned in south london on saturday. lambeth council said investigations are ongoing. health officials are appealing for blood donors to come forward to boost stocks following a cyber attack which affected a number of london hospitals last week. donors of 0 positive and 0 negative blood are being asked to urgently book appointments to cover the widest range of patients, after the ransomware attack affected some blood transfusions and tests. benny gantz, a leading opposition figure in israel's war cabinet has resigned, accusing prime minister benjamin netanyahu of making empty promises over the war in gaza. 0ur correspondentjon donnison is in jerusalem. good morning, john. how significant is this resignation by benny gantz? it is significant but it isn't going to bring the government down because by minister benjamin netanyahu still maintains a majority in israel's parliament. but mr gantzjoined the government in the wake of the october the 7th attacked as an act of unity and it shows there is now no immunity about how the war is being conducted in —— no unity about how the war is being conducted in gaza and the plan of what will happen once the fighting stops. it also removes a relatively moderate voice, a vastly experienced man in the military, and someone who i think had quite a lot of respect with the americans. and it also means that he could be replaced by the more extremist right—wing voices in the government, in particular it and then give ear, —— the security minister who has said that he should replace mr gantz in the war cabinet, and he is someone that is rolling out completely any sort of ceasefire deal with hamas in gaza, and itamar ben gvir says if there is a deal there, he would resign from the government and that would bring the government and that would bring the government down. so it is a shift to the right for israeli politics. liverpool football club has announced their former captain alan hansen is "seriously ill" in hospital. the 68—year—old was a key figure at anfield for more than a decade. whew, what more do we know this morning?

thank you. sort it out! this might have happened to you, you get in touch with social media to complain about a bad flight that it doesn't work. complain about a bad flight that it doesn't work-— doesn't work. there is a warning that scammers _ doesn't work. there is a warning that scammers are _ doesn't work. there is a warning that scammers are posing - doesn't work. there is a warning that scammers are posing as - doesn't work. there is a warning i that scammers are posing as social —— as presented on social media. it is usually when you are flustered and you write something. xyour is usually when you are flustered and you write something. your focus is not where — and you write something. your focus is not where it _ and you write something. your focus is not where it should _ and you write something. your focus is not where it should be. _ and you write something. your focus is not where it should be. it's - and you write something. your focus is not where it should be. it's the - is not where it should be. it's the time of year when you escape to the sun, realwarning here. if you want to contact social media companies, be careful. scammers are increasingly impersonating airline accounts in and the pencil de fordey. this is a response one customer received, they contacted the correct accounts, but there is a slight misspelling, which suggests that this could be a fake account. john had issues with easyjet after he was not allowed to board the flight, he contacted the company via x and when he got a response, the alarm bells were ringing. i started to receive different tweets from different people who purported to be easyjet supervisors and it didn't look correct, because the photographs to me didn't look like they were naturally people who were working for easyjet. so i was very suspicious to that. and then after that, they then contacted me in order to try and get me to link into an app where they wanted to say they could give me all my money back which made me even more suspicious. if you are feeling a bit stressed, it is easy to miss those errors. and a common tactic that they use is for these fake accounts to ask for your phone number, flight details or other personal information. they might even encourage you to click on a link that will attempt to take your personal data. consumer groups say that these scams are cropping up on airline accounts but it is possible these could be used elsewhere. there's no reason why this type of scam can't be applied across the board to all sorts of industries. we are seeing it more at the moment in airlines purely because of it's that time of year and people are more l
