The good news is there will be a lot of dry weather through the next three days, but there will be a bit of rain and that sums up the forecast as we go into the weekend. All the details in the next 15 minutes. Good morning. First, our main story. Around Three Million eu nationals living in the uk will be allowed to stay after brexit, under proposals outlined by the Prime Minister. Speaking at a summit in brussels, theresa may said that those who had lived here for more than five years would be allowed continued access to healthcare, education and other benefits. Mrs may said the deal was dependent on eu states guaranteeing britons the same rights. From brussels, adam fleming reports. A year to the day since the uk voted to leave the eu, european leaders are digesting the offer made to them by theresa may over dinner at this summit. She said she wanted no families to split because of brexit. Eu citizens with five years residence would have Settled Status, meaning lifetime access to health, education, and benefits. And there will be a grace period for newer arrivals to build up enough time to qualify. The eus Prime Ministers and president s made their own proposal on this huge issue earlier this year. This is the first time theyve heard the british view and they are waiting for the small print to be published in parliament on monday. Translation theresa may made it clear, today, that eu citizens who have been in Great Britain for five years can keep their full rights. Thats a good start, but of course there are many, many other questions about brexit, about finances, about the relationship with ireland, which means we still have a lot to do until october. But mrs may could be walking into a big row. The eu wants a role for europeanjudges. She doesnt. They want more rights for families, she is not so sure. And thats before a potential argument that could be even bigger how much money does the uk owe the eu . 11 residential high rise buildings in england have been found to be covered in Combustible Cladding, this after urgent safety tests were carried out following the Grenfell Tower fire. The buildings are spread across eight local Authority Areas, including camden in north london, where cladding is now being removed from five tower blocks. More details from our correspondent tom burridge. It took a tragedy to change fire safety in britain. Its so frustrating that weve been asking for the Building Regulations to be reviewed every year, and nothing at all has happened, til now. Already, in another london borough, they are stripping off cladding from five tower blocks. The cladding here is similar to that used on Grenfell Tower. Camden Council Claims it was misled and was told the cladding used on these buildings was a safer type. The cladding will be a key part of the investigation into the fire at Grenfell Tower. Like many other buildings, its outer skin was of an aluminium composite material. The best cladding has a mineral core, which doesnt burn. But the core at grenfell was polyethylene and that might have been a factor that caused the fire to spread. The government says it is now testing 600 buildings, but there are reviews under way on privately owned buildings too. Premier inn has told the bbc that three of its hotels did not appear to comply with Government Guidelines for tall buildings. The company said it had received independent advice that the hotels could stay open, given other fire safety measures. But many other buildings, owned by others, elsewhere, could be in a similar position. B00|ng yesterday, the Prime Minister booed again on a visit to north kensington. The deadly fire at Grenfell Tower will change our how buildings are built. The political legacy is still unravelling. Tom burridge, bbc news. A Senior Police officer has warned that forces in england and wales would face real challenges in dealing with large scale outbreaks of disorder, because of budget cuts. The Chief Constable of West Midlands, dave thompson, said Neighbourhood Street Patrols would disappear unless there was fresh investment. The Home Secretary amber rudd has acknowledged Police Resources are very tight, but said she wouldnt rush into releasing extra money. Virgin media has told its 800,000 customers to change their passwords to prevent their accounts being hacked. An investigation by which . Found that hackers could breach security on the virgins super hub 2 router. The hackers were then able to control other smart appliances, including a childs toy and home cctv cameras. Facebook has revealed new plans to tackle extremism by educating charities and other organisations on how to counter hate speech. The Social Media Giant has launched the online civil courage initiative, which it said would allow charities and other non profit organisations to share their experiences of extremism and develop ways to tackle the issue both on and offline. The planned new Nuclear Power plant at Hinkley Point is both risky and expensive, according to the National Audit office. The Public Spending watchdog says the government has not sufficiently considered the impact on consumers. Heres our Business Reporter rob young. It will be britains first new Nuclear Plant for a generation. Hinkley point c has been plagued by delays, but Building Work has already started on the somerset coast. It will produce 7 of britains power, replacing older and dirtier plants which have gone off line. Hinkley has been given a guaranteed price for its electricity, which could cost bill payers as much as £30 billion. The Public Spending watchdog is critical. What we found is that the government has committed a very risky and expensive deal, with uncertain economic benefits. The governments case for proceeding with the deal last september wasnt clear cut and while it will be several decades before it is known whether this deal is value for money, what weve concluded is the government didnt do enough to consider the costs and risks of the dealfor consumers. Consider the costs and risks of the deal for consumers. The government maintains nuclear should be part of a Diverse Energy mix. It points out it provides clean and reliable electricity. The projects Majority Shareholder edf in this its good value compared with alternatives and says costs for future plans will be lower. Hinkleys construction and operation is expected to create more than 26,000 jobs and apprenticeships, boosting the local economy. But its impact could be national, with new Nuclear Plants to follow.

Yes, researchers from the University Of St Andrews have been studying their behaviour for years. They say their presence may have stopped the chimps from hunting in groups. Their findings show how sensitive Chimp Society is to the presence of humans. Which kind of figures. Why would you enjoy being observed by humans .

Its emerged 11 high rise blocks in england have the same Combustible Cladding as the Grenfell Tower. The premier inn is extremely concerned about three of its hotels. Lets take a look at this mornings papers. Many of the papers divided between the beaches emerging last night from the beaches emerging last night from the meeting, there is Angela Merkel and theresa may. And the pledge, we will ask questions about what it means for the 3 million eu citizens who can stay in britain and the terms and conditions around the offer later on. And the story we will talk about this morning as well, thousands of residents to be evacuated from the potentially dangerous tower blocks, 11 of them now, Local Authority Buildings A Nyway now, local authority buildings anyway that have been deemed to have dangerous cladding. The daily mail looking at the announcements, migrants can stay in the uk, only if britons in europe are protected and debate over the cut off date for the residency rights. Front of the daily telegraph, that story is dominating. 3 million eu migrants, and that is naga knocking things off the table. The other important story of course about concerns over the tower blocks. The tests are going on as we speak. We are finding out more about those tower blocks affected. The daily mirror looking at thousands more living in Tower Deathtraps with fears 600 buildings have the little and falcao adele style cladding. This caught my eye. Grenfell style cladding. They were told they we re style cladding. They were told they were not allowed to wear shorts when the weather was really hot. They we re the weather was really hot. They were annoyed, because girls can wear skirts and be cooler, so they turned up skirts and be cooler, so they turned up in skirts at this academy in exeter yesterday. They were sent home after. One boy said he enjoyed the nice breeze his skirt had afforded him. It makes sense. If you do it en masse it is hard to punish them. It is a fair point well made. Talking of points made, it isnt often that the fa listen to joey barton. He was banned for 18 months for 1200 bets he placed on football. He said you cannot punish me when you are in bed with betting companies because the fa had lucrative deals with betting companies.
