sajid javid has now pledged urgent action after a major review found problems across the nhs. among them, discrimination, bullying and blame cultures, with the head of the review saying there was institutional inadequacy in the way nhs management are trained and developed. mrjavid said it would lead to the biggest shake—up of leadership in decades. among the recommendations, improving equality, diversity and inclusion. actively promoting equal opportunity. more effective recruitment to encourage diverse talent. and better incentives to attract top talent into challenged areas of the nhs. a separate report released today says it's difficult to improve performance for patients when many nhs trusts have a lack of staff and worker burn—out. 92% of trusts we spoke to told us that there were workforce shortages. 86% told us that they had difficulties in discharging patients who were medically fit, which is causing real pressure on their beds. today's reports aim to deal with those challenges, but right now patients continue to wait. frances read, bbc news. well, the health secre

sajid javid per health secretary, more from college green. do let me know what you think of the fact that there is a no confidence vote tonight in the prime minister, that will be at 6pm uk time, the prime minister will address his own backbench mps, that will be his last opportunity to persuade enough of him to vote for him. the key number is 180 mps, we should get the result before 9pm uk time. do let me know what you think of the fact that there is no confidence vote. we have some work to date's news. britain has announced it's to send long— range mobile rocket launchers to ukraine, along with ammunition. the announcement follows last week's decision by washington to supply kyiv with four similar rocket launcher vehicles. in an interview on sunday, president putin warned against such moves: translation: if long range weapons are iioin to translation: if long range weapons are going to be _ translation: if long range weapons are going to be supplied _ translation: if long range weapons are going to be supplied we _ translation: if long ra

here's the health secretary, sajid javid. today we're launching a digital revolution for the nhs and care through this new plan. i want patients to have effective and quick access for their health needs at their fingertips and that's not only better for them in terms of outcomes, but it's betterfor the nhs. it will save time and it will save money. so the plan we're publishing today covers everything from digital robots to remote monitoring, the use of artificial intelligence, electronic patient records and the nhs app. everyone remembers the nhs app from the height of the pandemic. some 28 million people already have downloaded it. i think that's something like 60% of adults. so we're going to add new features to that over the coming months and years. you'll be able to book your gp appointment and have messages you exchange with your gp. you'll be able to monitor and manage your hospital appointments. you'll be able to access not just your records but your children's health records. so there's so much more we can do. i've se

here's what both the heath secretary, sajid javid and the shadow heath secretary, wes streeting told breakfast this week when they were asked if they thought an nhs pay rise should exceed inflation this year. when we look at pay in government we are advised by the independent pay review bodies. they take into account a number of things, including inflation. no doubt they will in their upcoming recommendations. i'm not going to pre—empt what they may or may not say, and i would look to that first before the government makes a decision. when i was campaigning around the country in the local elections before may, i will never forget the visits that i did to the food bank in colchester where they were telling me that nurses were turning to the food banks. so, you know, we wait to see what the pay review body says. personally, i would like to see a particular focus on those on the lower pay bands, among the lowest paid workers, not just in the nhs but in social care, because people are really struggling at the moment. we're joined now by sian elliott from the tuc. good elliott from the

minister, saying that a confidence vote was imminent. 7:30am on bbc breakfast the health secretary sajid javid said a vote is likely. between 7:30am and 8am a former minister and ally of borisjohnson, conservative mp called jesse norman, released a letter he had written to the prime minister saying mrjohnson had presided over a casual culture of lawbreaking, and mr norman did not support the prime minister any more. and then at about 8:30am this morning the man in charge, essentially, of a vote like this, sir graham brady, announced live on bbc breakfast that the threshold for a confidence vote in the prime minister had been reached. and he confirmed that effectively some mps had written their letters before jubilee weekend and had a them. so that's what happened within an hour this morning. here is helen catt on the events of the day so far. for weeks, the contents of sir graham brady's inbox has been a source of intense speculation. now there is confirmation. the threshold of 15% of the parliamentary party is of the parliamentary party seeking a vote of confidence in the prime minister
