rebecca and herfamily live in west yorkshire. it's been a difficult winter and it can be hard affording the energy bills and paying for food. her son is 11. sometimes we struggle quite a bit. it can be... it can get really bad to the point where we can�*t afford bread and milk, but we�*ve only gone that far maybe once or twice. sometimes we can't even afford to go swimming. it's quite embarrassing to speak about it, but i'm quite happy to tell you how it is because it shouldn't be happening, not in this day and age. until recently, rebecca had a job, but she was struggling to pay for childcare whilst she worked and the council tax. she receives universal credit. the lounge is the only room with a carpet in their flat. it's paid for weekly. so this room here, obviously the biggest one we've got, it's shared by two girls, the girls' room. as you can see, we have no carpets in any of the bedrooms. so again, it's a financial issue that we seem to be having. obviously, no carpets, no flooring, the windows not being great. so it's

from the forest of dean and then from the mendips, and then i started seeing faces i recognised from yorkshire and it just became obvious that people were coming from all over the country. so, you recognised some of these people underground? i did, yes, yes, some people. there are a lot of faces that i didn't see but i did also see mates and comrades, shall we say. all the way through the rescue. and could you start to appreciate at that point just the effort that people had made to help? yes. yeah, yeah. i felt a little bit guilty at one stage, i must admit, and a whole lot of gratitude. george effectively rescued himself. he trusts us and he knows he can do it so the rescue teams will come together and make it happen. and he was definitely tough enough for the challenge. we have something very specialist for cave rescue, something we call cave link. above ground, david dunbar was one of those relaying information back and forth, using a special unit which can send text messages through rock and earth. but it wasn't always straightforward. the surface control were getting more and more franti

the highest risk, really, around north yorkshire and also into norfolk. but otherwise, most of us having a dry day with plenty of sunshine. temperatures 1! to 6 degrees, maybe some 8s across westernmost areas. little change in the weather forecast. for friday, the weekend and next week, it stays mostly fine and dry. welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore, i'm karishma vaswani. the headlines. britain's prime minister is battling for his future, facing calls to resign, because of parties at downing street during lockdown dramatic scenes in parliament, as a conservative mp defects to labour, and a former minister joins the calls to quit.

the yorkshire chairman lord patel has been speaking to our sports editor dan roan. my my sole focus besides dealing with all the issues we have to deal with is making sure international matches are returned here as soon as possible, because everything rests on that, in terms of our future, future sponsors, our sustainability plan and the hundred of thousands of fans that want to seek test cricket here. it is absolutely crucial. liverpool managerjurgen klopp says he's "very positive" about the prospect of mohammed salah extending his contract beyond the end of next season. the egypt international gave an interview to gq magazine this week in which he said his future was in liverpool's hands and that he was not asking for "crazy things" amid reports he wants £300,000—a—week wages. nowadays especially, i think it is really dangerous when there is interviews, you did not speak to the player himself, so i know mo wants to say, we want mo to stay. that's where we are, so... and these things take times. i cannot change, sorry, but i think it is all in a good place. no

the yorkshire post features a quote from a conservative mp in the region, that says downing street should not have been holding any social events at a time people were not allowed to attend funerals or visit dying relatives. as well as featuring the prime minister�*s future, the guardian also reports the other big story today, that white mixing boris johnson white mixing borisjohnson was ready to apologise. the guardian also reports the other big story today, that prince andrew has lost his efforts to stop the case. so let�*s begin. strip for headlines and its glum picture of the prime minister. and the eyes, reflects on the prime minister�*s apology which was very heartfelt. it has not stand or stop the barrage of anger and in that apology, he claimed that the social event that did happened, he did acknowledge that. and he claimed it was a work event and i don�*t think that washes with his backbenchers and i don�*t think it washes with the british public. it was not a an apology that took proper accountability because there was still excuses there. so he is now still excuses th

for the cricketer who experienced and exposed racism at yorkshire, today's events reveal the long road still to travel. joe wilson, bbc news. now on bbc news, it's time for the travel show with carmen roberts. this week on the travel show, tiny spaces in tokyo. vast wide open ones in finnish lapland. freedom, the silence around you, and generally just live a happier life. and the trips to look forward to in 2022. international restrictions will start to ease, restoring the benefits that travel brings to the world. it's a city of dazzling neon, where robots can fix your drink, and you order your food from a machine. and even way back in 1972, architects were coming up with visions of the future that still leave us spellbound. this is the nakagin capsule tower. it's astonishing to sit here and look at this building, and even though it was built about 50 years ago, it still looks really futuristic. but the netting on the outside is a sign that time is beginning to catch up with the nakagin. it's made from more than 140 pods, each of which can be detached and replaced. the tower was the fi
