Businesses 'not fully ready' for no-deal, says Carney\n\nAbout 150,000 businesses still do not have the paperwork they need to keep exporting to the EU in the event of a no-deal Brexit, Mark Carney has said.\n\nThe Bank of England governor added that many had built up contingency stocks, but these would only last \"weeks\".\n\n\"Business will be reliant on what the governments are able to do in order to keep the ports open, the trade flowing,\" he told the Today programme.\n\nBut he said the financial system was prepared for a no-deal scenario.\n\nThe UK is due to leave the EU by 31 October after seeking an extension to leave the bloc back in March.\n\nBoris Johnson, considered the favourite in the race to become the next prime minister, has said the UK must leave in October, even if it has not struck a deal.\n\nHis rival, Jeremy Hunt, has said the UK may need more time, although he would accept no-deal as a last resort.\n\nAhead of his Mansion House speech to the City on Thursday, Mr Carney said about three quarters of UK businesses have done as much as they could do to prepare for a no-deal.\n\n\"But it doesn't mean they are fully ready, in fact far from it,\" he told the BBC.\n\nHe also stressed that in the event of a no-deal exit, the return of trade tariffs on goods shipped to the EU would be \"automatic\".\n\nThis contradicts a claim from Mr Johnson that the UK could secure a 10-year standstill in current arrangements using an article of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade known as \"Gatt 24\".\n\n\"The Gatt rules are clear... Gatt 24 applies if you have a [withdrawal] agreement, not if you've decided not to have an agreement, or you have been unable to come to an agreement,\" Mr Carney said.\n\n\"So... we should be clear that not having an agreement with the European Union would mean that there are tariffs, automatically, because the Europeans have to apply the same rules to us as they apply to everyone else.\"\n\nMr Carney also said he was cautiously open to Facebook's new digital currency, Libra, which is due to launch in the first half of next year.\n\nBut he said the Bank would be setting \"ground rules upfront\" to protect consumers and their data, and that Libra \"had to be safe or it is not going to happen\".\n\n\"Welcome to the world of finance: there is oversight, there is consumer protection, there is market integrity, people have certain rights to privacy that have to be respected.\n\n\"And we're not going to allow a network that comes into place that is a network for criminals and terrorists.\"\n\nFacebook unveiled details about Libra this week, claiming the virtual currency would be as easy to use as texting.\n\nIt said Libra would be independently managed, backed by real assets and pegged to a basket of well-known currencies.\n\nBut there have been concerns about how people's data and cash will be protected, as well as the currency's potential volatility.\n\nMr Carney said: \"All the major global central banks and supervisors would have direct regulatory control of this if it is going to work, which is an open question, and we have an open mind about it.\"", "Four explosions woke south Philadelphia residents in the early hours on Friday after the Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery complex, the largest of its kind on the East Coast, caught fire.

I enjoyed it a lot,\" Murray told BBC Sport. \"I was a bit slow at the beginning and got better as the match went on.\n\n\"I'm fortunate to be back playing again.\n\n\"Leading up to the match I was quite relaxed but I was a bit nervous when we started walking to the court.\n\n\"You want the nerves and the butterflies in the stomach and I had that.\"\n• None Relive Murray's return to tennis as it happened\n\nFor three-time Grand Slam champion Murray this was not about the result. This was simply about whether his new metal hip could stand up to the rigours of competitive tennis.\n\nBut he could not hide his delight - or indomitable competitive spirit - in clinching victory over one of the world's best doubles pairs at the west London club.\n\nMurray's face cracked into a broad grin as a return into the net secured the match, Lopez then standing back on the sideline to allow the former world number one to take the acclaim of an adoring crowd.\n\n\"I learnt quite a bit tonight,\" added Murray. \"I expected to be the worst player and to not feel particularly good on the court, which was probably the case in the first set.\n\n\"But then I think I started to play better in the second and started to serve a bit better, see the returns a little bit better and things.\n\n\"I have zero discomfort in my hip after the match. Nothing. And if I had done this last year, I'd be here aching, throbbing, and feel bad the next day.\n\n\"So I'll just keep pushing and see how it goes. But I feel optimistic about the future. I don't know how long it will take to get to that level, but, hopefully not too long.\"\n\nThose who had not already secured tickets in advance queued up outside the gates for resales, meaning Centre Court was largely full when play started about 18:45 BST.\n\nEvery winner was met with encouraging cheers and hearty applause, with Murray's wife Kim cheering him on from the front row along with coach Jamie Delgado and other key members of his team.\n\nMost importantly, the two-time Wimbledon singles champion moved freely and was limp free, showing a sharpness perhaps many did not expect to see from a player at his stage of recovery.\n\nMurray broke down in tears in a pre-tournament news conference at the Australian Open in January, saying he planned to retire after Wimbledon because of the acute pain which left him struggling to play with his two daughters and even putting on his socks.\n\nWhen the Scot waved farewell at the end of his first-round defeat by Spain's Roberto Bautista-Agut in Melbourne, few thought they would see Murray back in a competitive scenario on a court.\n\nYet he returned 157 days later after renowned hip surgeon Sarah Muirhead-Allwood, whose previous patients have included the Queen Mother, operated on him.\n\nMurray says the resurfacing of his hip, where the femur head is smoothed down and covered with a metal cap, has been \"life-changing\" and finally taken away the pain which has dogged him for a number of years.\n\nWhether he will be able to become the first player to return to the singles court after this operation remains to be seen, but this was certainly an encouraging first step for the former world number one.\n\nWhat next for Murray?\n\nMurray and Lopez will face either British duo Dan Evans and Ken Skupski or the Canadian-Australian pairing of Felix Auger-Aliassime and Alex de Minaur in Friday's quarter-finals.\n\nThe match will be fifth on a packed centre court schedule and you can watch it live on BBC TV and the BBC Sport website.\n\nAndy could face older brother Jamie in the last four if they both come through their last-eight matches.\n\nJamie and Neal Skupski - who beat Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin 7-6 (7-5) 1-6 10-7 in their opener - face Henri Kontinen and John Peers before Andy's match on Friday.\n\nPunching the air at regular intervals and seemingly loving every minute after five months on the sidelines, Murray returned as a winner.\n\nHe was at his sharpest in the second set - executing a high backhand volley with a high degree of difficulty, and then hitting two thumping forehand returns to get the decisive break of serve.\n\nMurray also took a tumble, to no ill-effect, and there was no sign of the on-court limp we had become so accustomed to before his surgeon worked her magic.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "President Vladimir Putin has said Russia \"completely disagrees\" with the evidence put forward by the MH17 plane crash inquiry.\n\nIt comes a day after four men - three Russian - were charged over the murder of 298 people on board a Malaysian Airlines flight in 2014.\n\nThe BBC's Steve Rosenberg asked Mr Putin if Russia would accept responsibility at a news conference after his annual Direct Line phone-in event.", "Chris Davies apologised to his constituents for \"making such an error\"\n\nA Welsh Tory MP convicted over a false expenses claim will find out later if he has been unseated by a petition.\n\nIn March, Brecon and Radnorshire MP Chris Davies admitted a false expenses claim at Southwark Crown Court.\n\nA by-election will be triggered if 10% of the electorate in the constituency, 5,303 voters, have signed the petition.\n\nThe recall petition, which closed on Thursday, will be verified and counted at 10:00 BST, at Powys County Hall in Llandrindod Wells.\n\nThe result is expected soon afterwards.

they may not have understood that before\".\n\nHe proposes sending a new negotiating team team to Brussels, which would include representatives of the European Research Group - the group of Conservative MPs who support harder forms of Brexit - and members of the DUP.\n\nMany in the Conservative Party believe a new personality at the top can change hearts and minds in Europe but the EU has insisted that the backstop is not up for renegotiation.\n\nThe DUP is keeping quiet about who it would like to see move into Downing Street.\n\nThe party is no stranger to the \"Boris effect\": the Conservative MP was the keynote speaker at the DUP conference last year.\n\nBoris Johnson sat in between the DUP leadership at the party conference last November\n\nBut it will be wary of broken promises.\n\nAt the conference, he called for the backstop to be \"junked\" but then voted for the agreement - including the backstop - during the third meaningful vote in March.\n\nThere's also the matter of renewing the confidence-and-supply pact.\n\nThe Conservatives needed the votes of the DUP's 10 MPs in order to have a working Commons majority after the 2017 Westminster election but had to agree to an extra £1bn in spending for Northern Ireland.\n\nSome Johnson-backing Tory MPs, like Daniel Kawczynski, want the next PM to call a fresh election rather than continue to be at the DUP's \"beck and call\".\n\nWhile the DUP voted against Theresa May's Brexit deal and threatened the government several times over the backstop, it is worth saying that the influence the DUP wields at Westminster is very valuable.\n\nIt will want to work with whoever becomes prime minister.\n\nJeremy Hunt would not be as closely aligned to the DUP as other members of his party.\n\nBut he has sought to paint himself as the candidate best placed to strengthen the union and win the backing of the DUP with a new Brexit deal.\n\nThe latest talks to try and restore power-sharing in Northern Ireland began in May.\n\nAlthough talks haven't broken down, there are no signs of a political breakthrough any time soon.\n\nSinn Féin and the DUP have pointed the finger at each other during the course of the talks processes\n\nIf Boris Johnson becomes PM he is likely to replace the Northern Ireland Secretary Karen Bradley -

but it's likely to prove as difficult to resolve as Brexit.", "A former charity fundraiser and an organic farmer have been convicted of funding terrorism by sending cash to their son in Syria. So how did Sally Lane and John Letts end up before a jury in the Old Bailey?\n\nIn the words of one judge, they were \"two perfectly decent people... in custody because of the love of their child\".\n\nAnd over four years, Lane and Letts battled to avoid trial for sending cash to their son, who had joined the war in Syria and the Islamic State group.\n\nBut now they have both been found guilty of a serious terrorism-related offence after a trial that came down to evidence of foreseeable consequences.\n\nJack Letts converted to Islam as a 16-year-old. His parents had supported his decision.\n\nBut two years later in May 2014 evidence began to emerge that he was associating with extremists. He married Asmaa, whose family were influential in IS in Iraq, and they had a child together.\n\nA fellow Muslim who knew Jack Letts in Oxford warned his parents their son wanted to go to Syria.\n\nJack Letts, who is now 23, told his parents he only wanted to study in the Middle East and they decided to fund his travel.\n\nBut they were not sure what he was up to. Evidence from their trial reveals that Lane confided in a friend that she believed her son might be seeking to join the war - but both she and his father appeared to hoping for the best.\n\nIn late August the truth dawned. Lane emailed a friend to say her son was in the \"worst\" possible country, a message sent two days before the beheading of James Foley, the first western hostage to be murdered by IS.\n\nAnd Jack Letts finally confirmed to his parents on 2 September 2014 that he was in Syria and later exchanges made clear he was alongside other IS group recruits from the UK in the group's capital Raqqa.\n\nBy March 2015 counter-terrorism detectives were investigating Jack Letts and they advised his parents not to send him any cash. Quite simply, it would probably end up in the hands of the terror group and wiring money in such circumstances was a crime.\n\nDuring the trial the jury heard that Jack Letts has obsessive compulsive disorder and his parents believed his decision to go to Syria was influenced by his condition.\n\nBut to others, he had appeared to have become a fully signed-up member of an extremist sect. In one Facebook post he declared he'd like to \"do a martyrdom operation\" against a school friend who was in the Army.\n\nLane sent one payment - and tried to transfer two more\n\nWeeks later he was bragging to his mother about the \"Islamic State Health Service\", a key piece of propaganda that the group's UK recruits were encouraged to promote.\n\nAnd so when he began to ask for cash, he was playing on his parents' turmoil.\n\nHe repeatedly asked Lane to send money to an intermediary in Turkey or Lebanon whom she did not know. He claimed it would not go on \"jihad\" but advised her to come up with a cover story.\n\nDespite her reservations, the trial heard Lane and John Letts agreed to the proposal and in September 2015 she wired £223 to her son's contact in Lebanon.\n\nShe hoped any cash she sent her son could help him survive or escape. But the transfer led to a second warning from the police not to send any more.\n\nIn relation to this transaction, the couple were convicted by a jury at the Old Bailey of entering into a funding arrangement for the purposes of terrorism.\n\nThey were each sentenced to 15 months imprisonment, suspended for two years.\n\nAs the winter wore on, Jack Letts was sending conflicting messages. On the one hand he said the West should \"die in their rage\". He also began to suggest he was doubting IS beliefs and wanted to return home.\n\nHis parents pressed further, and Jack Letts again asked for cash, suggesting smugglers could help him to get out.\n\nBy now it was not just the police warning the couple not to send anything. Two independent experts, an academic and a professional deradicaliser, also advised the couple not to send money.\n\nThen, on 27 December 2015, a junior police officer, acting as a liaison with the family, made a mistake. That officer said money could be sent if it were to aid their son's escape.\n\nTwo days later, case officers corrected the error in a meeting with Lane and John Letts, backed up with a written notice that sending cash would be a crime.\n\nDespite that formal advice, effectively a third warning, on New Year's Eve Lane tried to send £1,000 to her son's nominated intermediary in Lebanon.\n\nThe payment was blocked. Four days later, the trial heard, that Sally Lane used a false identity to try again to send £500. Again, the payment was blocked.\n\nThe jury cleared the couple of funding terrorism by attempting to send the £1,000 payment and were unable to reach a verdict in relation to the third attempted transfer.\n\nThe case has been one of the most drawn-out terrorism prosecutions in recent history - including the almost 20 hours the jury took to reach verdicts.\n\nNo jury could be asked to find Sally Lane and John Letts guilty of supporting terrorism - because there was no evidence they supported banned violent groups. It was clear from their own emotional arguments with their son how deeply disgusted and shocked they had been by his decision.\n\nBut at the same time, they wanted to help him come to his senses and find a way out.\n\nSupporters of Lane and John Letts came to the Old Bailey\n\nThe question for the jury would be whether sending cash for that purpose broke the law which bans the funding of terrorism in any circumstances.\n\nThat law, Section 17 of the Terrorism Act 2000, states that it is a crime to enter into a funding arrangement if someone either knows or has \"reasonable cause to suspect\" that money could end up in the hands of terrorists.\n\nWhen the offence was originally created in 1976, prosecutors had to prove the defendant either definitely knew for sure or suspected the cash was going to fund terrorism.\n\nBut Parliament later changed the wording to include situations where people would merely have had reasonable cause to suspect where their cash was heading. This, in effect, lowered the evidential test to find someone guilty.\n\nAs the case approached trial, the couple asked the Court of Appeal to rule that the law was being misinterpreted - a challenge that could have stopped the prosecution. During the hearing in 2017 they argued they could not be accused of funding terrorism if they honestly did not believe their son would ever hand money to a banned terror group.\n\nTheir aim had been to try to rescue him, to save his life, and therefore they could not be prosecuted for funding a terror group.\n\nThose senior judges rejected that appeal and that decision was backed a year later by the Supreme Court.\n\nIf Jack Letts had successfully covered his tracks, his parents would never have committed a crime because they would have had absolutely no idea what he was up to.\n\nHowever, there was ample evidence of where he was, who he appeared to be with and what he had been doing.\n\nThe jury had to decide whether the couple knew enough about their son's situation to reasonably suspect cash might end up in the pockets of IS fighters, even if they genuinely hoped that it would not.\n\nIn opening the trial, prosecutor Alison Morgan QC said jurors would inevitably have sympathy for the parents but the law was focused on \"the greater good, stopping money flowing into terrorist groups\".\n\nBoth of them knew where Jack was, who he was associating with and believed he was being manipulated by others, she added.\n\n\"Sending money in such circumstances, where you may conclude that it was highly likely to fall into the wrong hands, is against the law.\"\n\nWhile the facts of their trial appear unusual, there have been other very similar cases involving Muslim-heritage families, albeit with less media hullabaloo.\n\nSalim Wakil, a 25-year-old from Hampshire, was jailed for 30 months in February this year for the same crime.\n\nIn 2014, his 16-year-old sister, Summaiyyah, headed to the warzone along with other Britons. She ended up a teenage mum and widow after her fighter husband from Portsmouth was killed.\n\nHer siblings repeatedly tried to persuade her to return home. Instead she kept nagging them for money. They all resisted, other than Salim, who the Old Bailey heard had mental health problems.\n\nHe was too meek and suggestible to resist his sister's manipulation and ultimately agreed to send her more than £2,500.\n\nThere's a long-standing principle that someone should not be found guilty of a very serious crime unless they intended it to happen.\n\nThis is an important safeguard in English law because it requires a jury to be sure of the defendant's state of mind. This is known as the concept of \"Mens Rea\", the guilty mind.\n\nBut the law of funding terrorism works differently because the test is what the defendant reasonably suspects might happen, rather than what they intended.\n\nHenry Blaxland QC, for John Letts, told the trial the prosecution was \"inhumane to the point of being cruel\".\n\n\"This prosecution does absolutely nothing to further the prevention of terrorism,\" he said.\n\n\"In fact it runs the risk of undermining the fight against terrorism because it runs the risk of bringing the law into disrepute. Law without compassion is not justice.\"\n\nBut the law, in this case, is the law. Jack Letts did something terrible. The dual UK-Canadian national has appeared to live to regret it.\n\nHis parents, right to the eve of their trial, petitioned the British and Canadian governments for help to get him home, including a hunger strike outside St Paul's Cathedral.\n\nTheir suffering is the same as that of many other parents who discovered their sons and daughters had headed to a war 3,000 miles away.\n\nBut the jury at the Old Bailey concluded Lane and John Letts were not entitled to take the law into their own hands.\n\nThe crime they were accused of makes no allowances for crossed fingers, a refusal to accept the available facts, or naivety.", "Antoinette Sandbach has been a Conservative MP for Eddisbury in Cheshire since 2015\n\nThe government's chief whip has promised to investigate messages sent to a female Conservative MP by a colleague in which she was was called a \"disgrace\" and told to quit the party.\n\nIn a now-deleted tweet, Antoinette Sandbach shared a screenshot of WhatsApp messages which she said were sent to her by a male Tory MP.\n\n\"You too are a disgrace.

There is a massive amount of work for investigators to work through,\" Mr McHugh said.\n\n\"It might take two or three days to totally understand what a device was doing on that particular day.\n\n\"Recently, we had an investigation where we recovered 50 phones - it is enormous.\"\n\nDet Ch Insp McHugh said he was keen to \"dismantle the snitching culture\".\n\n\"It is absolutely heartbreaking for the officers and the families, especially when there are people out there in the know, holding back information and hiding behind a wall of silence,\" he said.\n\n\"They are not a snitch, they are not a grass, they are a public champion.\"\n\nThe Met said it had a \"robust and comprehensive\" review process for all homicide investigations.\n\nIf a case was unsolved after 28 days, a homicide investigation would be independently reviewed by specialist officers from the Met's Serious Crime Review Group.\n\nThe clear-up rate for cases of murder and manslaughter has always been high - around 90% or above, with dedicated teams and substantial police resources rightly devoted to investigations.\n\nBut the figures for the Met make worrying reading. Between 2008 and 2015 detections remained stable, with only 5 to 10 % of cases unsolved. Since then, however, the proportion of un-detected killings has risen from 13% in 2016 to 26% in 2017 and 2018.\n\nAlthough some cases will be classed as \"detected\" in the months to come as investigations develop and inquests conclude, the increase does suggest that murder is becoming harder to solve.\n\nAs Noel McHugh suggests, it may be partly due to the volume of digital material now available and the reluctance of witnesses to come forward, particularly in street-based or gang-related crimes.\n\nBut a shortage of detectives and forensic science provision, highlighted in numerous reports by inspectors and parliamentary committees, together with increased demands on police more generally, are also likely to be factors.\n\nDet Ch Supt Richard Wood explained unsolved murder cases were never closed and more recent cases were likely to be currently classed as \"undetected\" because of the normal length of a homicide investigation.\n\nHe said: \"We prioritise resources to investigate homicides and work closely with the CPS to bring offenders to justice and support families at the most difficult of times.\"\n\nThe Met Police defines a \"detected\" homicide case as one that resulted in a charge\n\nCases \"put on hold\" are reviewed every two years by an independent panel - chaired by a Commander - that aims to source any new information.\n\nOne of the cases unsolved is that of Bjorn Brown, who was stabbed to death in Croydon in March 2017.\n\nDespite repeated CCTV appeals and a £20,000 reward for information - nobody has been charged with the 23-year-old's murder.\n\nHis aunt Sandi Bogle - who featured in Channel 4's Gogglebox - said the so-called \"wall of silence\" had prolonged the pain of her family's loss and search for answers.\n\n\"It is sad that it has come to the point where money has to be offered for information,\" she said. \"It really makes you think people don't care about human life.\n\n\"Someone out there knows what has happened and I can't blame the police when there are friends and family who hide behind this wall of silence.\n\n\"It is painful, every event like birthdays, Christmas or Easter which go by, it just gets harder knowing Bjorn isn't there.\n\n\"It's never going to be too late to make that phone call and share whatever information you know so our family can get justice.\"\n\nDet Ch Supt Wood expressed his sympathy to families such as Mr Brown's - but said cold cases often became \"lengthy and complicated\".\n\nHe added: \"There is a huge amount of work taking place on unsolved murders.\n\n\"There are between 15 and 20 cases subject to a full cold case review at any one time.\n\n\"Behind every unsolved murder there is a family looking for answers.\n\n\"In some cases, they do take years to come to conclusion.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Last updated on .From the section Cricket\n\nEngland were strangled into a shock 20-run defeat by Sri Lanka that dented their hopes of reaching the World Cup semi-finals and breathed life into the tournament.\n\nChasing 233 on an increasingly difficult pitch, the hosts were smothered by a brilliant Sri Lanka bowling performance in a compelling contest at Headingley.\n\nWhen Ben Stokes was joined by last man Mark Wood, England still needed 47, but Stokes clubbed 23 from eight deliveries to make a deafening crowd believe.\n\nWood, though, edged Nuwan Pradeep behind to leave Stokes stranded on 82 not out and England 212 all out.\n\nThey had earlier restricted Sri Lanka to 232-9, with Angelo Mathews' painstaking 85 proving to be a match-winning innings.\n\nEngland stay third in the 10-team table, but their three most difficult group games - against Australia, India and New Zealand - are still to come.\n\nSri Lanka climb to fifth, only two points behind England, their unlikely hopes of reaching the semi-finals still alive.\n\nTop four go through to semi-finals\n• None How does England's defeat affect their World Cup chances?\n\nBefore this match, there was the danger England, Australia, India and New Zealand would pull away to leave the elongated group stage nothing more than a procession towards the semi-finals.\n\nOn a sun-kissed day at Headingley, amid unbearable tension in front of a crowd fully invested in the action, Sri Lanka produced a display full of fight and spirit.\n\nIn doing so, they delighted their noisy pockets of fans that included a brass band that played non-stop, as well as injecting much-needed intrigue into the tournament.\n\nAt the same time, they have raised questions about an England side that hit a world record 25 sixes in demolishing Afghanistan at Old Trafford on Tuesday, but that failed to adapt to the difficult batting conditions in Leeds.\n\nSome, like James Vince and Moeen Ali, fell in infuriating fashion, while Jonny Bairstow and Jos Buttler were fooled into playing across the slingy Lasith Malinga, who claimed 4-43.\n\nJust like when their fielding cost them against Pakistan, England helped engineer their own downfall and, as it stands, will have to find at least one win from their remaining games if they are to make the last four.\n\nAlthough England were finding run-scoring tough against the probing Sri Lankan bowling, there was no panic while Joe Root was moving towards 57 in the company of Stokes.\n\nWhen Sri Lanka called for a review that revealed Root was caught down the leg side off Malinga, England unravelled.\n\nAfter Buttler was pinned, Moeen, playing his 100th ODI, brainlessly looked for his second successive six off Dhananjaya de Silva and was caught at long-off.\n\nIn his next over, the spinner had both Chris Woakes and Adil Rashid caught behind, while Jofra Archer holed out to long-off in a collapse of 4-16.\n\nThrough it all, Stokes remained, unflappable, but now having to farm the strike with only Wood for company.\n\nHe was dropped in the deep on 57, then launched back-to-back sixes to draw noise that rocked Headingley to its foundations.\n\nHowever, he left Wood to face the final ball of Pradeep's 10-over spell. The number 11's poke nestled in the gloves of the wicketkeeper, and England were beaten.\n\nWhile England were putting in an excellent display with the ball and in the field, Mathews crawled along, looking entirely like a batsman whose previous highest score in this tournament was just nine.\n\nOnly late on did he show any intent, but by that time he was rapidly running out of partners.\n\nWhen Sri Lanka were 3-2 after winning the toss, the day could have been short, only for Avishka Fernando to sparkle for 49, including two sixes pulled off Archer.\n\nAfter he uppercut Wood to third man, England spinners Moeen and Rashid bowled in tandem to suffocate Sri Lanka.\n\nIt was Rashid, looking back to near his best, who had Kusal Mendis well held by Eoin Morgan at mid-wicket and then, next ball, Jeevan Mendis caught and bowled.\n\nWood and Archer worked through the lower order, with Wood particularly impressive - his yorker to bowl Malinga was clocked at 93mph.\n\nAll the while, Mathews plodded on. At no point was he interested in playing the modern, ultra-aggressive one-day game, but he had the application to battle with both himself and the England bowlers.\n\n'If we had won, we would have been robbing Sri Lanka' - what they said\n\nEngland captain Eoin Morgan: \"In the chase we didn't do the basics of getting substantial partnerships going.\n\n\"We had a couple of good individual performances but Sri Lanka thoroughly deserved to win.\n\n\"We didn't do enough to win the game and even if we had nicked it then it would have been us robbing the game with an outstanding individual performance.\"\n\nFormer England assistant coach Paul Farbrace on Test Match Special: \"England will know their performance today hasn't been good enough to win the game and it is a game they should be winning.\n\n\"(Head coach) Trevor Bayliss talks lot about smart cricket and at times they did not play smart cricket.\n\n\"They don't make excuses. Eoin Morgan will call it as he sees it. There won't be any shouting or finger pointing but there will be some quiet conversations with some players about their modes of dismissals.\"\n\nSri Lanka captain Dimuth Karunaratne: \"It was a close one, we were under pressure but it was teamwork in the end - all the batters and bowlers did great work.\n\n\"We thought this wicket looked like a 300 pitch but it was slower than we thought. We knew we couldn't get 300, so wanted 250-275 until we lost some wickets but Angelo Mathews batted really well.\n\n\"With a score on the board the bowlers knew what to do on this wicket.\n\n\"The Root wicket was the turning point. We were not confident but thought we would go for the review and thankfully for us that was the turning point.\"", "Cheryl Hooper was described by her parents as \"full of kindness\"\n\nA farmer who shot his estranged wife as she sat in her car outside her home has been jailed for life for her murder.\n\nCheryl Hooper, 51, was killed in front of her daughter outside her home in Newport, Shropshire, in January 2018.\n\nAndrew Hooper, 46, who turned the shotgun on himself after the attack, now has severe facial injuries that mean he has lost the ability to speak.\n\nAfter being found guilty by a jury at Birmingham Crown Court, Hooper was ordered to serve a minimum of 31 years.\n\nJudge Mark Wall QC told Hooper: \"The sentence that I must pass on you is one that you richly deserve - life imprisonment.\n\nTelling Hooper he had not expressed any remorse or regret after leaving a \"horrific aftermath\" when he fled the scene, the judge added: \"This was not a last-minute decision to kill, arrived at outside Cheryl's, but rather a planned execution.\"\n\nFollowing the verdict, Det Insp Mark Bellamy from West Mercia Police said Mrs Hooper had been murdered by her \"controlling and jealous husband in a premeditated act of the most savage violence\".\n\nThe Crown Prosecution Service said, following their separation, Hooper had a tracker fitted to Mrs Hooper's car without her knowledge.\n\nThe Crown Prosecution Service said Hooper smashed the car's window with the shotgun before shooting his wife twice\n\nThe jury had heard Hooper suspected his wife was having an affair, and, on the night she was killed, tracked her to a pub in Wolverhampton and found her with friends and her suspected lover.\n\nLater, he arrived at her home, he said, intending to frighten her into leaving the other man and resuming their marriage.\n\nMrs Hooper's daughter said the defendant \"had murder in his eyes\" when he shot her mother in her Range Rover.\n\nFollowing the verdict, it emerged that Hooper was also given a suspended sentence in 2004 after breaking into his first wife's home and threatening to kill her.\n\nMrs Hooper's daughter Georgia, who was 14 at the time and witnessed the shooting, read a victim impact statement to the court.\n\n\"Mum was funny, beautiful and my best friend; the thought of her not being with me to share my life makes me very sad,\" she said.\n\nCheryl Hooper's daughter Georgia said her mum was her \"best friend\"\n\nJudge Mark Wall QC told the teenager: \"The way in which you have conducted yourself throughout this trial, which must have been extremely difficult for you, has been admirable and awe-inspiring.\n\n\"Your mother would, I have no doubt, been immensely proud of the way you have dealt with a tragic and difficult process.\"\n\nMrs Hooper's parents Tony and Rita said: \"Cheryl was a wonderful daughter, mother, sister and friend; she was beautiful both inside and out - full of kindness to everyone she came into contact with.\"\n\nThe Independent Office for Police Complaints (IOPC) said it had investigated contact Mrs Hooper had with police before her death, and published the results following the sentencing.\n\nIt said Mrs Hooper had made reports to Staffordshire Police about her estranged husband's behaviour, which had been referred to West Mercia Police, which covered Mrs Hooper's home area, to make appropriate safeguarding measures.\n\nIOPC regional director Derrick Campbell said: \"Police could not have reasonably foreseen the horrific event that transpired.\n\n\"While some inquiries could have been carried out more quickly or thoroughly, we found no indication that any officers or staff acted in a manner that would justify any disciplinary proceedings.\n\n\"Police decision-making and actions were carried out in compliance with relevant force and national policies.\"\n\nHowever, the IOPC said it had recommended Staffordshire Police explore opportunities to improve communications with neighbouring forces.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Boris Johnson, the UK's new prime minister, was already one of the UK's most recognisable politicians.\n\nHis high profile - built up as an MP, London mayor and foreign secretary - has often seen his achievements accompanied by controversy.\n\nAs editor of the Spectator magazine and a Have I Got News For You contestant, Boris Johnson was already well known for his shambolic persona.\n\nIn 2001, he became an MP, replacing Michael Heseltine in the safe Conservative seat of Henley-on-Thames.\n\nHe was considered more liberal than many Tories. As a journalist, he had questioned the repeal of laws banning the promotion of homosexuality by local authorities. But as an MP, he changed tack and said the state should not interfere in people's lives. He also voted in favour of civil partnerships.\n\nBoris Johnson during one of his Have I Got News For You appearances, in 2004\n\nIn October 2004, then Conservative leader Michael Howard ordered him to visit Liverpool to apologise for a Spectator article accusing its residents of wallowing in \"disproportionate\" grief after Ken Bigley - an engineer from the city - was kidnapped and killed in Iraq.\n\nAnd the following month, he was sacked as shadow arts minister, amid claims he had misled Mr Howard about reports of an affair with Spectator columnist Petronella Wyatt.\n\nNevertheless, a year later, he was on the rise again - resigning from his Spectator post when new Tory leader David Cameron made him shadow higher education minister.\n\nHowever, he continued to write for the Telegraph and had to make another apology - to a whole country - after he linked Papua New Guinea to \"cannibalism and chief-killing\" in a column.\n\nBy 2007, the Henley MP had his sights set on one of the biggest jobs in UK politics.\n\nTaking over from Labour's Ken Livingstone in 2008, Boris Johnson remained London mayor until 2016. It is the longest continuous period of public office that he has held.\n\nHe's often spoken of what he considers to be his biggest achievements during that period: on crime, housing and transport.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

However, it was also falling during his predecessor's second term.\n\nAnd in the first few years after Mr Johnson took over, knife crime rose by over 15% - although from 2012-13 onwards it started to fall.\n\nMr Johnson had backed the police use of stop-and-search powers to tackle violent crime. And he said he would ensure police numbers would go up despite central government cuts.\n\nHome Office figures show police numbers in London rose slightly, from 31,460 to 32,125, between March 2008 and March 2016. Across England and Wales in that period the number of officers fell by 17,603.\n\nThere was an increase in the number of affordable homes built - 101,525 by the end of March 2016, of which the Greater London Authority contributed to 94,001. This was a rise compared with the two terms of Mr Livingstone, although the definition of affordable housing had changed in 2011 so the figures are not directly comparable.\n\nHe scrapped the so-called bendy buses - which he said were too big for narrow streets and encouraged fare-dodgers.\n\nIn their place, he introduced a new version of the popular Routemaster London bus - a move that was criticised as a vanity project. There were complaints about non-opening windows and problems with the hybrid engines. They also cost considerably more than a normal bus.\n\nOne of his most famous transport initiatives was the so-called \"Boris Bike\" cycle scheme, introduced in July 2010.\n\nMr Johnson regularly promoted the hire bikes by riding them himself and the number of rentals reached more than 10.3 million during his last year as mayor.\n\nHowever, critics pointed to the £11m-a-year cost of keeping the bikes on the road. Others pointed out that plans for a bike hire scheme had been announced while Mr Livingstone had been mayor.\n\nAs mayor, Mr Johnson became involved in overseeing arrangements for the 2012 Olympics, planning for which started after they were awarded to London in 2005.\n\nOne of the most memorable moments was when he got stuck on a zip wire, while celebrating the UK's first gold medal win. The Olympics were widely seen as a success and there were claims that they had provided a major economic boost.\n\nBut there were also questions raised about the Olympics' legacy, including criticism of the conversion of the Olympic Stadium into a football ground. In 2017, an independent review said the conversion had cost £323m - far more than the original estimate of £190m.\n\nThe latter part of his time as mayor saw a plan to build a garden bridge over the River Thames as a memorial to Princess Diana.\n\nThe pedestrian-only bridge, with trees and plants, which was first suggested by the actress Joanna Lumley in 1998, was to be funded by private and public money.\n\nBut it was cancelled in 2017, after a review recommended the project be scrapped - £53m had already been spent on the project; £43m of which came from the public purse.\n\nMr Johnson decided he wanted to return to Parliament before his term as mayor ended, in 2016. He won the seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip in 2015.\n\nAfter resuming life as an MP, he declared his opposition to expanding nearby Heathrow airport, saying he would lie in front of the bulldozers.\n\nAs London mayor, he had promoted an alternative scheme, for an island airport in the Thames estuary, an idea rejected on cost and environmental grounds.\n\nBut Mr Johnson was noticeably absent when MPs subsequently voted on Heathrow expansion in June 2018, as he was on an official trip to Afghanistan.\n\nMr Johnson had been appointed foreign secretary by the new prime minister, Theresa May, in 2016.\n\nHe had also run in the Tory leadership campaign that year but dramatically pulled out after Michael Gove's surprise decision to enter the race.\n\nThe job as foreign secretary was seen as an acknowledgement of his role as a leading figure in the campaign to leave the EU.\n\nHowever, there was also some surprise at the choice, with Lib Dem leader Tim Farron saying he would \"spend more time apologising to nations he's offended\" than working as foreign secretary.\n\nAnd there were the disparaging comments about other countries and their leaders - some of which were made before he got the job.\n\nThey included a Limerick - which won a £1,000 award in 2016 - about Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and a goat. And he said the Libyan city of Sirte could be the new Dubai if \"they... clear the dead bodies away\".\n\nAs foreign secretary, Mr Johnson supported a tough line against Russia, with the expulsion of its diplomats after the poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia Skripal.\n\nTwenty-nine countries, including the US, Canada, Australia and EU states, joined the UK, expelling more than 140 Russian diplomats in a co-ordinated move.\n\nNazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been detained in Iran since 2016\n\nBut in the case of British Iranian national Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, jailed in Iran, Mr Johnson had to apologise in Parliament.\n\nHe had said she had been teaching journalists in Iran when she had been detained, contradicting her statement that she had been on holiday at the time.\n\nHe later clarified that she had in fact been on holiday but has also said he does not believe his remarks made a difference to her plight - a claim rejected by her family.\n\nA few days after Mr Johnson made his remarks, Zaghari-Ratcliffe was summoned before an Iranian judge, to face charges of engaging in propaganda against the regime.\n\nAs foreign secretary, he also earned a rebuke from Downing Street, after comments emerged in which he had criticised close ally Saudi Arabia for engaging in proxy wars in the Middle East.\n\nNevertheless, he continued to allow sales of UK arms to Saudi Arabia, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen.\n\nIn 2018, Mr Johnson also faced criticism after writing in the Daily Telegraph that Muslim women wearing the burka \"looked like letterboxes\".\n\nBy this stage, though, he had left the government, resigning in protest at Theresa May's Brexit plan.\n\nBoris Johnson was a leading figure in the Vote Leave campaign during the 2016 EU referendum.\n\nHe became well known for his attacks on the EU and for advocating the benefits of Brexit. He declared that he was \"pro-having cake and pro-eating it\".\n\nBut it hadn't always been clear which side he would support.\n\nIn fact, while mayor of London, he'd spoken of the benefits of being in the single market.\n\nAnd in an article for the Daily Telegraph in 2013, weighing up the pros and cons of being in the EU, he had said that leaving would not solve the UK's problems.\n\nHowever, he also made clear he supported plans to ask the British people to decide about EU membership.\n\nDuring the Brexit campaign, he came under sustained criticism from those in favour of Remain, for his claims about the benefits of leaving and what he called \"taking back control\".\n\nMost controversial was a claim about how much money the UK sent to the EU. The £350m-a-week figure, which appeared on the side of a bus during the campaign, recently led to an unsuccessful attempt to prosecute him. Critics pointed out at the time that the figure was wrong as it did not take into account the UK's rebate, or indeed money subsequently spent in the UK.\n\nFor his part, Mr Johnson dismissed warnings that leaving the EU could spark a recession, describing one such study as propaganda.\n\nAnd he has continued to advocate a harder form of Brexit, sharply criticising both the deal that Mrs May agreed and her whole approach to the negotiations with the EU.\n\nHe described it as leading the UK into the \"status of a colony\", in his resignation letter, in July 2018.\n\nMr Johnson has continued to insist that the UK can and should leave the EU by 31 October, with or without a deal.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Cheryl Gillan announces Michael Gove is voted out of the Conservative leadership race,\n\nJeremy Hunt has promised Boris Johnson \"the fight of his life\" as the two compete to become the next Conservative leader and PM.\n\nMr Johnson said he was \"honoured\" to get the backing of 160 MPs in the final ballot of the party's MPs - more than half of the total.\n\nMr Hunt got 77 votes - two more votes than the next candidate Michael Gove.\n\nMr Johnson and Mr Hunt now face a vote involving up to 160,000 Tory members, with a result due by late July.\n\nAll 313 Conservative MPs took part in the final ballot in the House of Commons, with one paper spoilt.\n\nMr Johnson's victory in the latest round of the contest had been widely expected, but Environment Secretary Mr Gove and Foreign Secretary Mr Hunt had been engaged for several days in a fight for second place.\n\nIn the penultimate MPs' ballot, earlier on Thursday, Mr Gove overtook his rival, only to see his lead reversed in the final vote.\n\nBefore the final vote, a source close to Mr Hunt warned against reigniting the \"personal psychodrama\" between Mr Gove and Mr Johnson - who spearheaded the Vote Leave campaign together in 2016, but fell out after Mr Gove abandoned Mr Johnson's previous leadership bid to launch his own.\n\nFollowing the result of the final ballot, Mr Johnson tweeted that he was \"deeply honoured\" by his level of support.\n\nMeanwhile, Mr Hunt, acknowledged Mr Johnson as frontrunner to become party leader and prime minister, tweeting that he was the \"underdog\" but in politics \"surprises happen\".\n\nHe went on to praise Mr Gove as one of the \"brightest stars in the Conservative team\" and pledged to \"give Boris the fight of his life.\"\n\nMr Gove congratulated his rivals and said he was \"naturally disappointed but so proud of the campaign we ran\".\n\nHis campaign manager, Mel Stride, said he believed that Mr Gove's admission that he had taken cocaine during the 1990s had damaged his bid, adding: \"It stalled us and meant momentum was lost at that time.\"\n\nThere's no doubt that Mr Johnson is, at this stage (and there's a long way to go), widely expected to end up in Number 10.\n\nBut this result is an enormous relief to his camp, for the simple reason that they think Mr Hunt is easier to beat.\n\nForget any differences in style between the two challengers and their comparative talents - Jeremy Hunt voted Remain in the EU referendum.\n\nAnd for many Tory members it is a priority for the next leader to have been committed to that cause, rather than a recent convert, however zealous.\n\nMr Johnson and Mr Hunt will now take part in hustings in front of Conservative Party members around the country, before the votes are counted, with the final result to be announced during the week of 22 July.\n\nThey will also take part in a head-to-head debate on ITV on 9 July, following previous leadership debates hosted by Channel 4 and the BBC.\n\nMr Hunt has been in the cabinet since 2010. Before he became Foreign Secretary, he was the UK's longest-serving Health Secretary. Former Foreign Secretary Mr Johnson, who quit the cabinet last year over Theresa May's Brexit strategy is one of the UK's most recognisable politicians and was Mayor of London from 2008 to 2016.\n\nThe Conservatives said there had been 20,000 applications for places at the 16 leadership hustings around the UK. Party chairman Brandon Lewis congratulated the final two contenders.\n\nHe said: \"We are conscious that the Conservatives are not just selecting a new leader but also the next prime minister, and we take that responsibility extremely seriously at such an important time for our nation.\"\n\nLabour's national campaigns co-ordinator Andrew Gwynne said: \"What a choice: the man who broke the NHS or the man who wants to sell it to Donald Trump.\n\n\"A handful of unrepresentative Conservative members should not be choosing our next prime minister. People should decide through a general election.\"\n\nThe ballot of MPs earlier on Thursday saw Home Secretary Sajid Javid eliminated from the contest.", "Former MP Harvey Proctor has been giving evidence as a witness in the trial of Carl Beech\n\nA former MP broke down in court as he recalled being named a child murderer and paedophile by a man later charged with lying over the claims.\n\nHarvey Proctor was giving evidence as a witness in the trial of Carl Beech, 51, who has been accused of lying to police about an alleged VIP paedophile ring.\n\nMr Beech denies 12 counts of perverting the course of justice and one of fraud.\n\nHe had claimed Mr Proctor was directly involved in two murders and multiple counts of abuse in the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nGiving evidence at Newcastle Crown Court, Mr Proctor was asked by prosecutor Tony Badenoch QC how he felt about being accused of \"the murder of children and of sadistic sexual offending\".\n\nThe former Conservative MP replied: \"The allegations are wrong, malicious, false, horrendous.\"\n\nMr Beech, from Gloucester, was known by the name \"Nick\" when his claims were first reported in the media.\n\nHe is on trial accused of lying about being sexually abused by a group of well-known figures from politics, the media and intelligence. He also told police he had witnessed three boys being murdered.\n\nHis claims led to the Metropolitan Police's Operation Midland, which cost £2m and ended without any charges.\n\nCarl Beech, pictured in a 2014 police interview, denies fraud and perverting the course of justice\n\nAs well as Mr Proctor, among the people he accused of being in a paedophile ring were former prime minister Sir Edward Heath and former Home Secretary Lord Brittan.\n\nMr Proctor told the court he had a hostile relationship with Sir Edward - describing them as \"the antithesis of friends\" and neither was welcome at the other's home.\n\nJurors had previously heard how Mr Beech claimed he was let into a Conservative gentlemen's club - the Carlton Club - by Mr Proctor, and was then abused.\n\nMr Proctor said he had \"never met Nick\" and the allegations were \"an absurd fantasy\".\n\nHe told jurors: \"He is wrong. He is bearing false witness. There was no Westminster VIP paedophile ring.\"\n\nHarvey Proctor giving evidence as Carl Beech looks on\n\nJurors heard that Mr Proctor's home in Leicestershire was raided by police on 4 March 2015. He was living and working at the Belvoir Castle estate at the time, having left Parliament in 1987.\n\nDetectives did not disclose the details of the allegations against him during the 15-hour search, Mr Proctor said.\n\nHe became tearful when he described waking the next morning to discover the BBC reporting news about his home being searched in relation to claims of abuse and murder.\n\n\"I looked up at the television to see my face looking back at me\", he said, adding he then called the Radio 4 Today programme and said publicly - during a radio interview - that he had been plunged into a \"horrendous irrational nightmare\" and \"was not guilty of any of the allegations\".\n\nMr Proctor said intense media interest following the police raid led to him losing his job. He then decided he \"wasn't safe\" in the UK and moved to Spain, the court heard.\n\nHe told jurors that \"the Metropolitan Police believed the allegations against me were credible and true\".\n\nThe witness said a senior Met officer - Det Supt Kenny MacDonald - had given a press conference early in the inquiry and described the claims in such terms.\n\n\"I thought it was an extraordinary statement to be made by any police officer at the start of a police investigation\", he said, adding that he had not realised the detective was talking about him when he first saw it.\n\nHe returned to the UK to be interviewed by police on 18 June 2015. In the days beforehand, his solicitors showed him a document setting out the claims that detectives wanted to ask about: three allegations of murder and several allegations of sexual abuse of children.\n\nJurors have previously been shown a video in which the defendant told detectives he saw Mr Proctor strangle and stab a boy to death during a sadistic sexual abuse session.\n\nMr Beech also said Mr Proctor had been involved in the murder of another unknown child.\n\n\"These were horrendous, horrible, heinous allegations,\" Mr Proctor said. \"These are the worst things that one person can say against another. It was all untrue.\"\n\nHe said he was \"relieved\" to finally know what he was accused of so that he could \"fight back against these false allegations\".\n\nThe trial will continue on Friday.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Shot girls say they are regularly propositioned while working\n\n\"Shot girls\" have described how they had been routinely sexually assaulted and often paid below the minimum wage.\n\nThree women from Newcastle said they were \"groped\" by men, propositioned for sex and told by bosses it was \"just part of the job\".\n\nThey were employed to carry shots of alcohol on a tray around nightclubs and try to sell them.\n\nThey made 30p a shot in commission and often took home only £5 a shift. The company in question denies the claims.\n\nAfter failing to pay her the minimum wage, one woman claimed the firm, which the BBC is not naming, said it was her fault for not working hard enough.\n\nKatie Readshaw, 25, from Durham, originally worked behind a bar but said she wanted to become a so-called shot girl because it looked \"glamorous\".\n\nShe said: \"I was behind the bar in a dingy horrible uniform, covered in vodka and they were wandering around in lovely little dresses and they seemed like they were always busy and making money.\"\n\nKatie said staff were actively encouraged to flirt with men for sales\n\nDuring an interview with her employers, she felt they were \"sizing up girls to see if they were pretty enough to work for them\".\n\nThe company said all staff were \"expertly trained\".\n\nMs Readshaw said training included a three-slide PowerPoint presentation telling them to \"never give up and to keep flirting\".\n\nAfter they signed a contract, the firm sent the women into bars around Newcastle where they had agreements to provide shot girls.\n\nThe company was not responsible for breaches of the law by bar customers, staff or bouncers.\n\nMs Readshaw said: \"I've had a few gropings and things.

And you think well, if I leave and I go to walk home, what if they follow me?\"\n\nShe also said there were some nights when she would make £5 but her taxi home would be £6, meaning she had worked a full shift but ended the night with less money than she started it.\n\nAnother woman who worked as a shot girl, who did not want to be named, said: \"I had one friend who tripped and her bottle went flying everywhere.\n\n\"She had to replace that, but you have to do it at the price they get all the individual shots for.\n\n\"So that particular bottle of sambuca retailed at £30, but she had to pay £90 for it.\"\n\nShe said her worst experience was in a pub, when \"from start to finish it was a non-stop bombardment\" of men inappropriately touching her and commenting on her body.\n\n\"The thing I remember mainly at the end of the shift was being quite shaken up by how horrible it was, and then one of the managers coming in, their reaction was 'Well, that's kind of what happens isn't it, it comes with the territory of the job',\" she said.\n\nAnother woman told how she failed to sell a single shot and only had 20 minutes until her last train home.\n\nOne woman told the BBC she made nothing for an entire shift\n\nShe asked her manager if she could leave but they refused. She left anyway and that night she made nothing.\n\nEmployment lawyer Ruby Dinsmore said the company was ultimately \"breaking the law\" by not paying staff the national minimum wage.\n\nShe said: \"I note that one of the girls said that she was told that harassment, sexual harassment, was just part and parcel of the job.\n\n\"Well, that's certainly not the case. The manager and certainly the employer is fully responsible for ensuring that the girls are adequately protected from sexual harassment.\"\n\nThe company said it was shocked and categorically denied the claims.\n\nA Department for Business spokesperson said they were unable to comment on individual cases, but said anyone who thought they had been paid less than the minimum wage should contact Acas (Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service) - which provides free and impartial information and advice on workplace relations and employment law.\n\nThe spokesperson added: \"HMRC (HM Revenue and Customs) follows up every complaint made and investigates employers where necessary.\"\n\nIn Newcastle in 2018, 9,400 out of 140,000 employed people were working in the leisure and hospitality industry, according to the Office for National Statistics.

His special adviser, Adam Smith, was forced to quit.\n\nThe inquiry released texts sent from Mr Hunt to News Corp lobbyist Fred Michel when it was bidding for BSkyB. The culture secretary addressed him as \"Daddy\" and \"mon ami\" - their wives had given birth in the same hospital in May 2010. Separately, in December 2010, he told Mr Michel there was \"nothing u won't like\" in a forthcoming speech.\n\nMr Hunt insisted he acted with \"total integrity\" during the bid process.\n\nAs culture secretary, Mr Hunt also led a government plan to launch local television stations across the UK. More than 30 had been set up before Ofcom later scrapped the roll-out of any further channels, because of limited interest from viewers and financial difficulties.\n\nCity TV, the holder of the local TV licence for Birmingham, was forced to appoint administrators to find a buyer before it was even launched, for example.\n\nMr Hunt also announced a deal with the BBC to freeze the licence fee for six years at £145.50 from 2010. He said high executive salaries and an advantage over commercial broadcasters were a cause for concern.\n\nThat was equivalent to a 16% budget cut in real terms and led to the BBC having to make savings, including 2,000 job losses.\n\nUnder the agreement, the BBC also took on responsibility for funding the World Service, the Welsh language channel S4C, and the roll-out of broadband to rural areas.\n\nJeremy Hunt was appointed health secretary in September 2012, with Maria Miller taking on his previous role.\n\nHe would eventually become the longest-serving health secretary in NHS history, surpassing its founder, Labour's Aneurin Bevan.\n\nBut Mr Hunt held office during the slowest period of investment in the NHS since its foundation - which created big problems.\n\nSince the NHS was established, health spending has risen by about 4% above inflation each year on average. Post-2010, as the coalition budget tried to reduce the deficit, this fell to about 1% a year.\n\nThis came as demands on the health service were growing.\n\nBetween 2005 and 2015, A&E visits went up by almost 30%. And during Mr Hunt's tenure as health secretary, the number of people in the population aged 85 and over went up by about a third.\n\nThe independent Office for Budget Responsibility said funding for the NHS needed to rise by 4.3% a year just to keep up with rising demand, without actively improving standards.\n\nFinancial difficulties led to more hospitals going into the red, as well as targets being missed in three main areas: cancer care, hospital appointments and A&E waiting times.\n\nNHS England has not met any of these targets since 2015.\n\nJust 85.3% of patients were seen at A&E departments within the waiting time target of four hours in January 2018. At least 95% of patients attending A&E are supposed to be either admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours.\n\nUnions, like the GMB, demanded his resignation.\n\nAs well as a series of austerity measures - which included extending a cap on pay increases for NHS staff - he was also criticised for his handling of the junior doctor contract row.\n\nMr Hunt said that changes to contracts were essential to deliver a seven-day NHS in England by 2020 - a pledge in the Conservatives' 2010 election manifesto.\n\nTo achieve this, the proposed contracts would mean evenings and Saturdays would be considered \"normal\" rather than \"unsocial\" hours and would no longer attract overtime pay.\n\nThe NHS's pay review body had said the cost of paying a premium on these \"unsocial hours\" put delivering a seven-day NHS out of reach.\n\nJunior doctors responded by tweeting pictures of themselves working weekend and late shifts, with the hashtag #ImInWorkJeremy.\n\nContract negotiations with junior doctors stopped and started and the British Medical Association eventually decided on industrial action.\n\nJunior doctors took part in a series of walkouts in 2016. On two strike days, between 08:00 and 17:00 even emergency care wasn't covered - the first time that had ever happened in the history of the NHS.\n\nPublic support for the strike was high, and even after doctors withdrew emergency care, the majority of the public (57%) still supported the strike and believed the government was more at fault (54%).\n\nA new contract for junior doctors was later imposed, after BMA members rejected a deal agreed by the government and union negotiators.\n\nDespite heavy criticism, Mr Hunt did go on to secure a funding increase for the NHS, totalling £20.5bn in real terms by 2023.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of an Ofsted-style system for rating hospitals and GP surgeries in England, ranking them on things like cancer, mental health and diabetes services.\n\nMr Hunt repeatedly referred in speeches to cases where individuals had received bad treatment in the NHS. He said he was horrified at the report into the Stafford Hospital scandal.\n\nHe went on to overhaul the inspection regime, introduce a new duty of candour on staff and fresh rules about whistle-blowers.\n\nSocial care was added to his brief in 2018. He spoke of the need to integrate social care, funded by local councils, with services delivered by the NHS.\n\nHe had already overseen a transfer of money from the NHS to council budgets from 2014. This shared budget was designed to tackle the problem of elderly people having to stay in hospital beds unnecessarily, because of a lack of care for them at home.\n\nAfter this, the number of these cases fell.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of the first national waiting-time target for mental health treatment. From April 2016, the NHS said at least 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis should begin treatment within two weeks of referral.\n\nMr Hunt became foreign secretary in July 2018, after his predecessor and now leadership rival, Boris Johnson, quit over Theresa May's Brexit strategy.\n\nIn March, he became the first Western foreign minister to visit Yemen since conflict there began.\n\nHe has faced criticism for allowing the UK to sell arms to the Saudi regime, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen. But he has previously defended UK-Saudi ties, saying Saudi Arabia is a \"very, very important military ally to the UK\".\n\nHis time as foreign secretary has not been gaffe-free. During a meeting on an official visit to China, he called his wife Lucia Guo \"Japanese\" - although she was born in Xian in central China.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. The foreign secretary tells Today he would include the DUP and ERG in Brexit talks\n\nA Remain campaigner in the 2016 EU referendum, Mr Hunt has since said he would vote Leave in a second vote. He said this was because of the \"arrogance of the European Commission\" in Brexit negotiations.\n\nHe also likened the Brexit negotiating tactics of the EU to the Soviet Union. The comparison provoked criticism from EU ambassadors and politicians and there were calls for an apology.\n\nMr Hunt says he want to negotiate a \"credible\" Brexit plan by securing changes to the controversial Irish backstop.\n\nHowever, he does not rule out leaving the EU without a deal if such an outcome becomes \"the only way to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBut unlike his leadership rival, Boris Johnson, he says the current departure date of 31 October is not a hard deadline.", "German battleships sinking off the island of Fara\n\nIn waters off Orkney a century ago, 52 German warships were sunk in one day - but this huge naval loss was not inflicted by enemy forces.\n\nInstead the scuttling of the German High Seas Fleet in Scapa Flow was a deliberate act of sabotage ordered by a commander who refused to let his ships become the spoils of war.\n\nIt was the single greatest loss of warships in history and the nine German sailors killed that day were the last to die during World War One. The final peace treaty was signed just a week later.\n\nAfter the fighting in WW1 ended in November 1918, the entire German fleet was ordered to gather together in the Firth of Forth, near Edinburgh, to be \"interned\" by Allied forces.\n\nThe battlecruiser Derflinger just four minutes before it disappeared beneath the surface\n\nNine German battleships, five battlecruisers, seven light cruisers and 49 destroyers - the most modern ships of the German High Seas Fleet - were handed over to the victorious forces off the east of Scotland.\n\nWithin a week, the 70 German ships were escorted to the sheltered waters of Scapa Flow, off Orkney, where they and four other vessels were held while the details of the peace talks were worked out.\n\nThe final decision on their fate was to be taken at Versailles, but until then German sailors were kept on board their ships in the vast natural harbour. At Versailles, the victorious powers wrangled over what to do with the ships. Britain and the US wanted them destroyed. The French and Italians thought it better to share them out between the Allies.\n\nThe fleet was in Scapa Flow for seven months before it was scuttled\n\n\"The ships were not actually surrendered and that's why there were no British troops on board them to prevent them being scuttled,\" Tom Muir from Orkney Museum told BBC Radio Scotland's When the Fleet Went Down. \"They were German government property and remained that throughout their time here.\"\n\nThe German commander, Admiral Ludwig von Reuter, was not kept informed of what was happening outside of his ships. He had to rely on briefings from British commanders and old copies of the Times newspaper, according to Tom Muir.\n\nThe peace talks had been intended to conclude on 21 June but the deadline was extended. As far as von Reuter knew the talks had failed and he was fully expecting his ships to be boarded and seized by the Royal Navy. The German admiral felt duty-bound not to let that happen.\n\nMr Muir says: \"Von Reuter had already sent letters around the commanders of the ships telling them that he was planning to have the fleet scuttled at his signal. Ironically it was the British drifters who were carting those letters around to the officers on the other ships.\"\n\nOn the morning of 21 June 1919, the British fleet took advantage of good weather to steam out of the harbour on exercise. At 10:30, von Reuter's flagship, Emden, sent out the seemingly innocuous message - \"Paragraph Eleven; confirm\". It was a code ordering his men to scuttle their own ships.\n• None 7months after the end of World War One\n\nThe \"paragraph eleven\" signal, using semaphore and searchlights, took a while to reach all the ships because they were positioned right across the vast flow. \"They would have waited and like a wave it went through the ships from north to south,\" says Mr Muir.\n\nBeneath decks, German sailors began to open seacocks - valves that allow water in - and smash pipes. Mr Muir says: \"They had all been deliberately flooded from one side first so that they would turn over and sink because they believed it would make it more difficult for them to salvage them.\"\n\nAt first it was not clear what was happening and it took a couple of hours before it became apparent that the Germans had deliberately sunk their ships.\n\nThe German sailors took to small boats to escape their sinking ships as the few remaining British sailors onboard Royal Navy drifters, small vessels about the size of fishing trawlers which often escorted destroyers, tried to work out what to do.\n\nThe only civilian witnesses were schoolchildren from Stromness who were on a trip to view the German fleet onboard a water tender.\n\nOne of the schoolchildren, 12-year-old Leslie Thorpe, wrote that one German boat full of fleeing soldiers did not have a white flag and the British fired on it with a machine gun.\n\n\"The one thing that should not be forgotten is men died that day,\" says Mr Muir. \"We see all these images and it is just a huge piece of metal rolling over in the sea and sinking and you forget about the cost in human terms.\n\n\"The men in the drifters were ordered to open fire on the defenceless German sailors. They had no weapons, they were not allowed them and they didn't have any.\"\n\nIt is believed nine Germans died as a result of the actions that day.\n\nBy 17:00, most of the German High Seas Fleet had disappeared beneath the surface of Scapa Flow. The Hindenburg, the biggest German battlecruiser, was the last to sink.\n\nDuring the 1920s and '30s many of the 52 ships were lifted from the sea bed by commercial contractors and broken up.\n\nThe seven wrecks that remain are now classed as scheduled monuments, nationally important archaeological sites given protection against unauthorised change. Earlier this week it emerged that four of the vessels, which are now owned by a retired diving contractor, are being sold on eBay.\n\n\"The scuttling of the German fleet removed them from being a bargaining chip in peace negotiations but it was seen as a hostile act by the British,\" says Mr Muir. \"In Germany it was seen as a way of restoring some honour. The navy had not let the ships fall into enemy hands.\"\n\nA senior German officer declared at the time that this act had wiped away the \"stain of surrender\" from the German fleet.\n\nWhen the Fleet Went Down: Scapa Flow @100 is on BBC Radio Scotland at 11:30 on Friday 21 June", "Retention tanks are set be fitted to high-speed trains to stop the dumping of human waste onto railway tracks.\n\nThe practice of dumping sewage on the railways was ended by ScotRail in 2017.\n\nHowever, it was reintroduced last year after delays to a new fleet of refurbished trains forced ScotRail to hire carriages without toilet waste tanks.\n\nThe rail operator said it was \"doing everything\" it could to meet a UK-wide ban on dumping the waste by 2020.\n\nScotRail was meant to have received 26 refurbished high-speed trains, with waste tanks fitted, for routes linking Scotland's seven cities from rail firm Wabtec by December last year.\n\nSo far, the firm has only delivered five of these models - which date back to the 1970s but have all been renovated - and ScotRail has hired 14 'classic trains, without waste retention tanks fitted, to make up some of the shortfall.\n\nTrack operator Network Rail has committed to end the practice of effluent discharge from passenger train toilets by the start of 2020 and now ScotRail has advertised for firms to bid for the work to fit retention tanks to its 'classic' trains.\n\nA deal to stop dumping human waste was originally agreed and implemented in December 2017\n\nMick Hogg, the RMT union's regional organiser in Scotland, said: \"Every day our members are having to deal with the consequences of this broken promise of ending this disgusting practice for good.\n\n\"If it was a bus company dropping human waste on to the streets of Edinburgh or Glasgow, there's no way it would have taken this long to act.\n\n\"Fitting the tanks is a welcome step but it has taken too long, and I am sceptical that they will get this work done by the end of the year and meet the Network Rail target.\"\n\nThe HST was the mainstay of British Rail's inter-city service and the refurbishment programme has an estimated total cost of £54m\n\nResearch by industry regulator, the Office of Road and Rail, found that the risk of infection to railway workers from the waste was low.\n\nThe ScotRail advert asks for firms to submit proposals for waste retention tanks to be fitted between August and December this year.\n\nThe rail operator said it was not possible at this stage to say how much the work would cost.\n\nThere is also no firm timetable on when the remainder of the refurbished trains from Wabtec will be delivered but ScotRail has previously indicated it will seek compensation for the delays.\n\nA ScotRail spokesman added: \"We're exploring the option of fitting toilet retention tanks to our classic high-speed trains. This is due to the late delivery of the trains from our supplier.\n\n\"We are aware of the UK-wide target and we are doing everything we can as a business to meet it.\"", "Mike Dorricott, pictured with his daughter Sarah, died in 2015\n\nConservative leadership contender Jeremy Hunt failed to keep his promise to a man with terminal cancer during his time as health secretary, an inquiry was told.\n\nMike Dorricott died in 2015 from liver cancer linked to the hepatitis C he contracted through infected blood.\n\nHis widow Ann told the inquiry into the scandal Mr Hunt had promised to \"sort out\" a settlement for victims.\n\nA spokesman for Mr Hunt said he had \"pushed for this landmark inquiry\".\n\nMr Dorricott, who died aged 47, campaigned for fair compensation for those affected by contaminated blood products before his death and met Mr Hunt, his South West Surrey MP, on numerous occasions.\n\nThe inquiry is looking at why 4,800 people with haemophilia were infected with hepatitis C or HIV in the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nMore than 2,000 are thought to have died.\n\nIt was the first strong criticism of a politician at the infected blood inquiry and it won't be the last.\n\nAnn Dorricott recalled a meeting with Jeremy Hunt and his officials in 2014 when he seemed to indicate support for the idea of a \"fair and final settlement\". Campaigners have long called for full compensation for victims and their families covering loss of earnings and recompense for their mistreatment by the NHS.\n\nCurrently they get financial support intended to cover living costs. Compensation has not been delivered in the UK as it has in Ireland, hence Ann Dorricott's view that a promise had been broken. A spokesperson for Mr Hunt said he had increased financial support since the meeting and pushed for the inquiry.\n\nAs the hearings continue this year and next, former health secretaries will be called to give evidence and the former Prime Minister Sir John Major. The inquiry will probe the Government's handling of what's been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS.\n\nMrs Dorricott told the inquiry, sitting in Leeds, that a meeting had been held shortly after her husband's terminal diagnosis to discuss a \"fair and final settlement\" for the victims.\n\n\"When Mike told the room that it was terminal, Mike got very upset, very emotional,\" she said.\n\n\"Towards the end of the meeting, Jeremy Hunt came to myself and Mike, shook our hands and said to us, 'don't worry about this, we'll sort it'.\n\nThis sign was placed outside Jeremy Hunt's constituency office in Surrey after Mr Dorricott's death\n\nCounsel to the inquiry, Jenni Richards, asked Mrs Dorricott about her witness statement.\n\n\"You say in your statement this 'since that meeting he has not fulfilled his promise'. That is your view and that was Mike's view?\"\n\nA spokesman for Mr Hunt, currently foreign secretary, said: \"The Dorricott family are among thousands who have faced tragedy as a result of this appalling injustice.\n\n\"As well as increasing the financial support for victims, Jeremy pushed for this landmark inquiry because those affected have a right to know what went wrong and why.\"\n\nThe family said Mr Dorricott, who had mild haemophilia, had been given a contaminated blood product in 1982 during routine dental surgery in Huddersfield near his home in West Yorkshire.\n\nHe would only discover he had hepatitis C almost 25 years later, and numerous treatments and two liver transplants followed before he was told his condition was terminal in 2014.\n\n\"We tried to lead a normal life for the girls, but it was just out of our control,\" Mrs Dorricott told the inquiry.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "The review follows criticism of a televised debate between contenders in the Tory leadership contest\n\nThe BBC is to review whether \"additional steps\" should be taken when vetting guests for political debates.\n\nThe broadcaster was criticised over those given a chance to ask questions during its televised debate between candidates in the Tory leadership race.\n\nIt emerged that one guest had shared allegedly anti-Semitic tweets - he was later suspended from his job.\n\nA BBC spokeswoman said \"vetting and transparency\" of guests for political programmes would be reviewed.\n\n\"We have a long history of producing successful debate programmes and this was no different,\" she said.\n\nShe said it would be \"odd\" to have members of the public as contributors who all agreed \"with the politics of those they are questioning\".\n\n\"We did however, adopt a different format for this programme and we will look at whether there are additional steps we might take on vetting and transparency should we repeat it in the future,\" she added.\n\nOn Wednesday the broadcaster defended its vetting process after tweets by Imam Abdullah Patel came to light.\n\nThe BBC said Mr Patel re-activated a previously inactive Twitter profile in the aftermath of Tuesday's programme, Our Next Prime Minister.\n\nThe tweets had not been visible to its researchers before then, the BBC said.\n\nA screenshot of Mr Patel's Twitter feed from 2014 posted on the Guido Fawkes website showed he shared a graphic of Israel's outline superimposed on a map of the US under the headline \"Solution for Israel-Palestine conflict - relocate Israel into United States\".\n\nLabour MP Naz Shah was temporarily suspended from her party three years ago after it emerged she had shared the same image on Facebook.\n\nMr Patel would not have been selected for the programme if it had been \"aware of the views he expressed\", the broadcaster said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Boris Johnson, Jeremy Hunt and Michael Gove are voted through to the final round of the Tory leadership race\n\nOf course, pay attention to recent political history. Upsets are the norm. Outsiders become insiders. Strange things happen, and that's before you price in Mr Johnson's ability to cause havoc for himself.\n\nBut this result has left Mr Johnson's camp hugely relieved.\n\nOne of his most committed backers was laughing with joy and savouring not a little bit of revenge when I talked to them.\n\nMemories and suspicion linger long around here. And the narrow margin between Mr Gove and Mr Hunt has created doubts of its own.\n\nRumours are swirling that Mr Johnson's camp were engaged in skulduggery all day, that they would have pushed some of their own supporters to back Mr Hunt, to try to stop Mr Gove from coming second.\n\nThe message from on high in Mr Johnson's campaign is that the candidate himself was clear that absolutely must not happen, that he'd frown on any attempt to engineer the result.\n\nEyebrows have been raised, though. At least four of Sajid Javid's supporters declared online they would switch their support to Mr Johnson. But his actual tally only went up by three in the final ballot.\n\nWere their arms twisted to \"lend\" their actual votes to Mr Hunt to keep Mr Gove off the ballot?\n\nOne member of the cabinet said there had been \"more churn than a washing machine\".

[Mark Field] must immediately be suspended or sacked.\"\n\nFellow Labour MP Tonia Antoniazzi added: \"No one who reacts like this to a peaceful protest should be sitting in our Parliament.\"\n\nMeanwhile, Liberal Democrat MP Chuka Umunna described Mr Field's actions as \"totally unacceptable\" while former Tory MP Sarah Wollaston said it was \"absolutely shameful, a male MP marching a woman out of a room by her neck\".\n\nBut Conservative MP Johnny Mercer defended Mr Field, tweeting: \"Honestly? Try being in our shoes in the current environment.\n\n\"He panicked, he's not trained in restraint and arrest, and if you think this is 'serious violence' you may need to recalibrate your sensitivities. Calm down, move on, and be thankful this wasn't worse.\"\n\nFellow Tory MP Sir Peter Bottomley said attacks on MPs and their staff meant that such protests could not be ignored. \"Not intervening often has a cost, and if this becomes a fashion, there will be casualties.\"\n\nIn a statement to ITV News, Mr Field - who is the Foreign Office minister for Asia and the Pacific - said: \"In the confusion many guests understandably felt threatened and when one protester rushed past me towards the top table I instinctively reacted.\n\n\"There was no security present and I was for a split second genuinely worried she might have been armed.\n\n\"As a result I grasped the intruder firmly in order to remove her from the room as swiftly as possible.\"\n\nHe added: \"I deeply regret this episode and unreservedly apologise to the lady concerned for grabbing her but in the current climate I felt the need to act decisively to close down the threat to the safety of those present.\"\n\nMr Field added he would refer himself to the Cabinet Office and fully co-operate with its investigation into whether he had broken the ministerial code.", "Medicine has always been personal to some extent - a doctor looks for the best way to help the patient sitting in front of them.\n\nBut with advances in technology, it is becoming possible to use the most unique of characteristics - our genomes - to tailor treatments for individuals.\n\nGenomes are made up of a complete set of our DNA, including all of our genes, and are the instruction manual on how to build and maintain the 37 trillion cells in our bodies.\n\nAny two people share more than 99% of their DNA. It's the remaining less than 1% that makes us unique, and can affect the severity of a disease and effectiveness of treatments.\n\nLooking at these small differences can also help us understand the best way to treat a patient for a range of diseases - from cancer and heart disease to depression.\n\nCancer is the most advanced area of medicine in terms of developing personalised treatments.\n\nIn the UK, differences in the DNA sequence are being used by the NHS to help doctors prevent and predict cancer.\n\nFor example, women with an increased risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer have been identified by screening for changes to the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes.\n\nMutations in these genes increase a woman's risk of breast cancer by four-to-eightfold and can explain why some families see many relatives with the disease. A BRCA1 mutation gives women a lifetime risk of ovarian cancer of 40-50%.\n\nScreening has helped women make informed choices about treatment and prevention - for example, whether to have a mastectomy.\n\nIt is steps like these - splitting patients into ever smaller groups to identify the best treatments - that is taking us towards personalisation.\n\nFor certain cancers, measuring gene activity is becoming commonplace.\n\nGene activity is a little like the dimmer switch on a light - it can be set to low, high or anywhere in between. Measuring this allows us to see how active a particular gene is in a tissue or cell.\n\nIn breast cancer, a test measuring the activity of 50 genes in tumours can be used to guide decisions about whether the patient will benefit from chemotherapy.\n\nTo extend this approach to other cancers, researchers are switching off all of the genes in hundreds of tumours grown in the laboratory. In doing so, scientists are looking for cancer's weaknesses - to try to produce a detailed rule book for precision treatment.\n\nThe development of such techniques raises the question: how far can personalisation go?\n\nFor illnesses like heart disease, diabetes and infectious diseases, a combination of genetic, lifestyle and life events also play a part.\n\nThis means that information about small differences in the DNA sequence alone will not be enough to predict susceptibility and outcome.\n\nMeasuring the activity of our genes also captures information about current stresses to the body. For example, certain genes will have a higher or lower activity depending on the type of infection.\n\nYuvan Thakkar, 11, is the first to receive a drug called CAR-T. His mother, Sapna, said: 'This new therapy is our last hope'\n\nLooking at gene activity could also provide important clues as to how to best treat a patient.\n\nOne life-threatening illness where these techniques could help is sepsis.\n\nIt is a condition in which the immune system damages its own organs when trying to fight an infection.\n\nAnyone can develop sepsis and it kills 52,000 people each year in the UK - more than breast, bowel and prostate cancer combined. Worldwide, a third of patients who develop sepsis die.\n\nTo save lives, general antibiotics are given first to reduce the infection. A blood test is done to find out which particular bacteria have caused the sepsis, so a more targeted antibiotic can be given.\n\nBut these blood tests take precious time and cannot always identify the bacterium causing the infection.\n\nIn our research, we are looking at gene activity in sepsis patients' immune systems, to give us clues as to why different people respond in different ways.\n\nWe hope to pinpoint which part of their immune systems are not working properly - helping doctors decide how other drugs could be used.\n\nThis demonstrates how personalised medicine could be used for short-term treatment in intensive care, as well as for longer-term illnesses like cancer.\n\nOne challenge personalisation faces is speed - measuring what is happening in our genes is currently a slow, laboratory-based process.\n\nIn order to be most effective in a medical setting, we need to be able to measure gene activity in a patient's blood instantly.\n\nNew technology like the microelectrode biosensor device - which flags real-time critical changes in the blood - is being developed to make rapid analysis a reality.\n\nThrough such advances it is hoped that genomic information, including gene activity, could become part of a GP's toolkit.\n\nGiven recent advances in research and technology, the information in our genomes is likely to be used more and more often and in settings beyond cancer.\n\nResearchers are looking at the genetic links to depression and anxiety, to help them understand the causes and develop new personalised treatments.\n\nThey are also accessing large datasets like the UK Biobank to use the small differences in DNA sequence to identify people at high risk of a heart attack later in life.\n\nIt is unlikely that information from your genome will result in a \"personalised pill\" being manufactured just for you. Rather it could help doctors to tailor the right combination of medicines to treat the right person at the right time.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from an expert working for an outside organisation.\n\nDr Emma Davenport is group leader in human genetics at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, which works to promote research in genomic discovery and collaboration between scientists.", "Scientists have taken cancer apart piece-by-piece to reveal its weaknesses, and come up with new ideas for treatment.\n\nA team at the Wellcome Sanger Institute disabled every genetic instruction, one at a time, inside 30 types of cancer.\n\nIt has thrown up 600 new cancer vulnerabilities and each could be the target of a drug.\n\nCancer Research UK praised the sheer scale of the study.\n\nThe study heralds the future of personalised cancer medicine. At the moment drugs like chemotherapy cause damage throughout the body.\n\nOne of the researchers is Dr Fiona Behan, whose mother died after getting cancer for the second time.\n\nThe first course of chemotherapy damaged her mother's heart, so she was not physically strong enough for many treatments the second time around.\n\nDr Behan told the BBC: \"This is so important because currently we treat cancer by treating the entire patient's body. We don't target the cancer cells specifically.\n\n\"The information we have uncovered in this study has identified key weak-spots of the cancer cells, and will allow us to develop drugs that target the cancer and leave the healthy tissue undamaged.\"\n\nThe researchers believe their work could lead to new treatments\n\nCancer is caused by mutations inside our body's own cells that change the instructions written into our DNA.\n\nMutations corrupt cells leading to them growing uncontrollably, spreading around the body and eventually killing people.\n\nThe researchers embarked on a gargantuan feat of disabling each genetic instruction - called a gene - inside cancers, to see which were crucial for survival.\n\nThey disrupted nearly 20,000 genes in more than 300 lab-grown tumours made from 30 different types of cancer.\n\nThey used a tool called Crispr - the same genetic technology that was used to re-engineer two babies in China last year.\n\nIt is a relatively new, easy and cheap tool for manipulating DNA, and this study would have been an impossible feat just a decade ago.\n\nThe results, published in the journal Nature, revealed 6,000 crucial genes which at least one type of cancer needs to survive.\n\nSome were unsuitable for developing cancer drugs, as they are also essential in healthy cells.\n\nOthers are already the target of precision drugs like Herceptin in breast cancer - the team called this a \"sanity check\" that proves their method works.\n\nAnd yet more are beyond current science to develop suitable drugs, so the researchers narrowed down a shortlist of 600 potential new targets for drugs to attack.\n\nOne potential target is \"Werner syndrome RecQ helicase\" also known more simply as WRN.\n\nThe research team found it was essential for keeping some of the most genetically unstable cancers alive.\n\nWRN plays a vital role in around 15% of colon cancers and 28% of stomach cancers, but there are no drugs that target it.\n\nThe work was a collaboration between Sanger, the European Molecular Biology Laboratory and pharmaceutical giant GSK. All the findings are publicly available.\n\nThe eventual aim of the research is to develop a \"Cancer Dependency Map\" of every vulnerability in every type of cancer.\n\nThen doctors would be able to test a patient's tumour and give them a cocktail of precision drugs to kill the cancerous cells.\n\nDr Behan told the BBC: \"We're understanding what's going on in the cancer cells so we can shoot our machine gun at the cancer cells, not at the whole body as chemotherapy does.\n\n\"This is the first step in putting a laser sight on our machine gun.\"\n\nProf Karen Vousden, Cancer Research UK's chief scientist, said: \"What makes this research so powerful, is the scale.\n\n\"This work provides some excellent starting points and the next step will be a thorough analysis of the genes that have been identified as weaknesses in this study, to determine if they will one day lead to the development of new treatments for patients.\"", "Mr Hunt said jobs depended on having a \"wise prime minister making sensible calls\"\n\nThe next PM has to be trusted to see Brexit through \"promptly and sensibly\", Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt has said.\n\nVisiting the West Midlands, the Tory leadership contender said jobs depended on the right outcome and he was the \"right person\" to deliver it.\n\nTory members will decide over the next month whether Mr Hunt or Boris Johnson becomes party leader and PM.\n\nMr Johnson has said it is \"eminently feasible\" that Brussels could agree a new deal before 31 October.\n\nThe UK is due to leave the EU on that date, with or without Parliament backing the existing deal reached by outgoing Prime Minister Theresa May and other European leaders.\n\nThe EU granted the UK a seven-month extension in late March in the hope the parliamentary deadlock - which has seen MPs reject the terms of withdrawal three times - could be broken.\n\nMr Johnson is the favourite to succeed Mrs May after winning the support of more than 50% of his colleagues this week as MPs whittled the candidates down to the final two.\n\nThe party's 160,000 or so members will decide the next Tory leader by postal vote - with the result to be announced in the week starting 22 July.\n\nSpeaking on a visit to a factory in Worcester, Mr Hunt argued the contest was a test of character over Brexit, saying: \"Do you have the skills and can you be trusted as prime minister to get the right outcome?\n\n\"Thousands of jobs in the West Midlands depends on having a wise prime minister making sensible calls as to how we leave the EU promptly, but also in a way that does not harm business. I am that person.\"\n\nBoris Johnson is the favourite to be the next Tory leader and PM\n\nBoth Mr Johnson and Mr Hunt have said Mrs May's withdrawal agreement is effectively dead and suggested they could get an improved deal from the EU.\n\nBrexit Secretary Stephen Barclay, a supporter of Mr Johnson's, told the BBC this would prove a \"significant challenge\", given that the EU has ruled this out and leaders are not scheduled to meet again until 17 October.\n\n\"The big challenge is that you have got two hurdles,\" he told Radio 4's Political Thinking podcast with Nick Robinson.\n\n\"One is are there any concessions that will get the deal through Parliament, because Parliament has become increasingly polarised.\n\n\"And second, there is a timing issue.

M4: What could you spend £1.4bn on?\n\nSpeculation is building that First Minister Mark Drakeford will scrap plans for a £1.4bn M4 relief road south of Newport.\n\nTransport expert Prof Stuart Cole has questioned how it could go ahead after the Welsh Government declared a climate emergency.\n\nOne Labour AM, Alun Davies, said he was assuming the first minister will not back the scheme.\n\nThe decision is expected to be announced on Tuesday.\n\nSince the UK government announced borrowing powers for the Welsh Government, ministers have pursued building a new six-lane motorway south of Newport, re-opening proposals that date as far back as 1991.\n\nWelsh Labour's manifesto for the 2016 election said the party would deliver \"an M4 relief road\".\n\nThe Welsh Government, under the previous first minister Carwyn Jones, commissioned a public inquiry. BBC Wales reported in February that £44m had been spent on development costs and the inquiry.\n\nAfter Mr Jones stepped down as first minister in December the decision has rested with his successor Mr Drakeford, who is widely assumed to be a sceptic about the project's benefits.\n\nThe proposed relief road would run south of Newport and the existing motorway\n\nMr Drakeford has been considering the inquiry's findings, which are also set to be published on Tuesday.\n\nThe project is hugely divisive, attracting opposition from environmentalists because of the impact on wildlife on the Gwent Levels, and support from business lobby group CBI and the UK government.\n\nObservers will be waiting to see if Mr Drakeford backs alternative upgrades to the road infrastructure around Newport, if he chooses not to go ahead with the six-lane scheme.\n\nAlun Davies, Blaenau Gwent AM, said on Twitter at the weekend that he was assuming Mark Drakeford \"will choose not to go ahead with the M4\".\n\nStuart Cole speculated that Mark Drakeford would drop the scheme\n\n\"There must therefore be some immediate road improvements around Newport and an unprecedented investment in public transport,\" he said.\n\nAnother Labour source said they could not see Mr Drakeford going ahead with the project.\n\n\"The climate change emergency declaration makes it very difficult now for Mark to approve it,\" the source said.\n\nProf Cole, an opponent of the M4 relief road and a backer of the blue route alternative of upgrading existing routes, told BBC Wales a decision to build the road \"doesn't fit\" with the Welsh Government's recent decision to declare a climate emergency.\n\n\"I would see no other alternative for Mark Drakeford than to put the scheme off, or indeed cancel it completely as had happened in the past,\" the University of South Wales academic said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. What is it like living next to the M4?\n\nFormer Welsh Labour minister Sue Essex dropped the plans in 2002 and Plaid Cymru transport minister Ieuan Wyn Jones did the same in 2009.\n\n\"I think he's going to make the same decision on very similar grounds of cost, spread of money around Wales and environmental factors, such as building on the Gwent Levels,\" Prof Cole added.\n\nThe Labour source said they would have liked to have seen the inquiry papers published by now.\n\n\"There's no point having an inquiry if politicians are going to make up their minds without taking it into account,\" the source said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. This video reveals the possible route of the M4 relief road\n\nAt his monthly press conference on Monday, Mr Drakeford defended his decision not to publish the report until Tuesday, saying it would not have been the \"sensible course of action\" if he had published it sooner.\n\n\"It's a decision over which people have strong views and differing views,\" he told reporters.\n\n\"It's true to an extent in the Labour party, and it's true more widely.\"\n\nMark Drakeford is expected to take the M4 decision on Tuesday\n\nThe mood music on the Welsh Government's preferred black route changed from a major to a minor key when Mark Drakeford was elected as Welsh Labour leader in December.\n\nAs finance secretary he talked about a cheaper option to the black route being \"attractive\". But on taking the top job, he promised to look with fresh eyes at the report from the public inquiry before announcing a decision.\n\nThere were also questions over whether his appointment of Lee Waters, a vocal opponent of the relief road, as a minister in the transport department (albeit one who would have no involvement with the decision) was a signal the Welsh Government was planning a U-turn on its backing for the plan.\n\nMr Drakeford insisted that was not the case and he had not yet reached a decision.\n\nSince then, the Welsh Government has declared a \"climate emergency\". How do you do that and then announce you're building a new road through environmentally sensitive wetlands?\n\nBusiness sources, who say the new route is vital to the future of the Welsh economy, have told me they're expecting a \"no\" to the black route, but with other measures announced.\n\nIf they're right, what might those measures be - a different route, mitigation around the existing road, more investment in public transport?\n\nWe'll find out on Tuesday.", "Two F-15SG fighter jets were sent to escort the Scoot flight from Cebu to Singapore\n\nSingapore's air force sent two fighter jets to escort an incoming passenger plane over a bomb threat which turned out to be a hoax, say officials.\n\nThere were 144 passengers on board Scoot flight TR385 from Cebu in the Philippines on Sunday when police were alerted to a security threat.\n\nA 13-year-old unidentified male passenger was allegedly behind the hoax, according to local media outlets.\n\nHe is currently assisting police with their investigations, said the reports.\n\nA spokesman from Singapore carrier Scoot told news outlet The Straits Times that all 144 passengers and six crew members onboard the plane landed safely at 16:49 (08:49 GMT) on Sunday at Changi Airport.\n\nSingapore's Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen later said Singapore would \"take every threat as real until proven otherwise\".\n\nThis Facebook post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The search effort since has involved fellow mountaineers, the Indian Mountaineering Foundation and air force pilots.\n\nMr Moran's name is legendary in UK climbing circles.\n\nHe graduated in geography at Cambridge University before studying and qualifying as a chartered accountant.\n\nBut the outdoors, and in particular mountains, are his passion.\n\nIn the winter of 1984-85, Mr Moran and his wife Joy made the first completion of all Munros - more than 280 Scottish mountains with a height of 914m (3,000ft) or more - in a single winter season.\n\nHe wrote about their adventure in the book The Munros in Winter.\n\nMr Moran's friend, former RAF Kinloss Mountain Rescue Team leader David Whalley, first encountered the mountaineer in Scotland's mountains in the 1980s.\n\n\"Martin had already made his name as a great mountaineer down south and from the early 80s I came across him a few times on walks in the hills,\" Mr Whalley said.\n\nThe friendship grew after the Morans moved to Lochcarron, a small community in Wester Ross in the north west Highlands, and established their adventure holiday business, Moran Mountain.\n\nMr Moran and his group are missing in the Nanda Devi region\n\nMr Moran also joined Torridon Mountain Rescue Team, whose patch includes some of Scotland's highest and most striking mountains.\n\n\"Torridon has some big cliffs and Martin has helped to rescue people from some very difficult places up there,\" Mr Whalley said.\n\n\"He has risked his life on rescues.\n\n\"Martin has a heart of gold and all he wants to do is make sure people get off a mountain safely.\"\n\nMr Moran's reputation as a mountaineer has also grown over the years.\n\nIn 1993, he and fellow climber Simon Jenkins climbed 75 4,000m (13,123ft) Alpine peaks in 52 days. The men cycled between the different ranges involved, rather than using motorised transport. making it the first self-propelled traverse of Alpine peaks of 4,000m.\n\nThe previous year, the Morans' business started offering guided Himalayan expeditions. Since then, the company has run more than 40 treks and climbs in the Indian Himalayas.\n\nThe business then offered climbing courses in Norway and Arctic mountaineering in 2005.\n\nMartin Moran's friend Andy Nisbet, right, pictured with Steve Perry, died in a climbing accident in February\n\nMr Whalley said Mr Moran was a climber of the same stature as Hamish MacInnes, the renowned Dumfries and Galloway-born mountaineer and climbing equipment inventor who first ascended the Matterhorn in the Alps when he was just 16.\n\n\"Mr Moran is the same sort of person,\" he said. \"Very professional, an incredible climber and famous among mountaineers.\n\n\"He is also a great writer. His book Scotland's Winter Mountains has everything you need to know about Scotland's mountains in winter. But it is not a book just about facts, it is filled with stories.\"\n\nMr Whalley said Mr Moran's online blogs tackled criticism of climbing that has followed fatalities in the mountains, and he wrote a \"powerful\" obituary to his friend Andy Nisbet, a well-known Scottish climber who died along with his climbing partner Steve Perry in a fall on Ben Hope in Sutherland in February.\n\nDespite his high profile in the UK climbing community, Mr Whalley described Mr Moran as \"very private\".\n\n\"Martin is very humble, selfless and cares about those around him,\" he added.", "Donald Trump and Sadiq Khan have been in a \"political grudge match\" for years\n\nUS President Donald Trump has reignited his political feud with Sadiq Khan, calling him a \"stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London\".\n\nMoments before Air Force One landed at Stansted, Donald Trump posted two tweets criticising the mayor of London.\n\nIt follows Mr Khan's attack on Mr Trump ahead of his three-day state visit to the UK.\n\nA spokesman for Mr Khan said the \"childish insults should be beneath the president of the United States\".\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

crucial in an emergency.\n\nAir Force One is also equipped with secure communications equipment, allowing the aircraft to function as a mobile command centre.\n\nThere are 85 onboard telephones, a collection of two-way radios and computer connections.\n\nInside, the president and his travel companions enjoy 4,000 sq ft of floor space on three levels, including an extensive suite for the president, a medical facility with an operating table, a conference and dining room, two food preparation galleys that can feed 100 people at a time, and designated areas for the press, VIPs, security and secretarial staff.\n\nSeveral cargo planes, including C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft, carry the president's fleet of armoured vehicles and helicopters, usually landing in advance of his arrival.\n\nAccording to the Washington Post, the president is always accompanied by a military aide carrying an emergency satchel known as the \"football\", which contains the \"gold codes\" for launching the country's nuclear weapons and options for their use.\n\nThe military aide must be nearby the president at all times, as the commander-in-chief is in possession of personal identification codes required to order a strike.\n\nThey are carried on a plastic card known as the \"biscuit\", which can be read only when its opaque plastic covering is snapped in two and removed.\n\nThe presidential motorcade, which includes two identical limousines and other security and communications vehicles, are transported ahead of the president by United States Air Force transport aircraft.\n\nOn the ground, the president travels in Cadillac One -

with an armour-plated body and bulletproof windows (which don't all open) - the car is reported to have tear gas grenade launchers, night vision cameras and a built-in satellite phone.\n\nReinforced tyres surround steel-rimmed wheels, which mean the car can still be driven if the tyres are flat.\n\nThe passenger cabin is said to be sealed, to fend off a chemical attack, while special foam would surround the fuel tank in case of impact.\n\nThe vehicle also has extensive electronic equipment, Reuters reports.\n\nThe car can hold at least seven people and has a wide range of medical supplies on board, including -

But shortly before he submitted his tax return, Mr Timis allegedly asked the trust to turn the distributions into untaxable loans.\n\nA backdated loan agreement was created making the loans look legitimate.\n\nJohn Christiansen, from the Tax Justice Network, said it looked like Mr Timis was dodging tax: \"It all points to this being a manoeuvre to cheat the tax man. And, if that is the case, because it's been done retrospectively, there seems to be prima facie evidence that this is tax fraud and it should be investigated.\"\n\nThe BBC investigation has also spoken to the man who ran the trust that helped Mr Timis with the apparent tax dodge.\n\nPhilip Caldwell is named as chairman at the meeting in Switzerland that agreed to backdate the suspicious loans.\n\nHis signature is on the minutes, but he says the meeting never happened and that the minutes of the meeting are fake: \"It has my signature on it but what I can say is that no such meeting ever took place. I wasn't there. I wasn't in Switzerland at the time.\"\n\nThe leaked documents also suggest that Mr Timis didn't pay a single penny in UK income tax in 2016.\n\nMr Timis's lawyers say the allegations are denied in the strongest possible terms: \"Mr Timis has fully complied with all of his tax obligations and at all stages has taken professional advice to ensure that he has done so.\"\n\nThe Romanian businessman is no stranger to controversy. He has two convictions for supplying heroin in the 1990s and has been involved in a series of failed mining ventures in Africa.\n\nFrank Timis has floated two mining companies on the junior stock exchange in London.\n\nOne of them - Regal Petroleum - was hit with the exchange's biggest ever fine in 2009 after misleading investors about an oil discovery.\n\nRegal Petroleum told investors it expected to find oil in Greece, even though it knew the well in question was dry.\n\nMr Timis's lawyers said he only held a minority stake in Regal and was not on the board at the time the company received the fine.\n\nThey said: \"Mr Timis was personally investigated and cleared by the FCA in relation to his role in Regal Petroleum.\"\n\nFor more on this story watch Panorama: The $10 Billion Energy Scandal on Monday 3rd June at 2030 BST\n\nUpdate 23 December 2020: This article is subject to a legal claim by Frank Timis and Timis Corporation.", "Police have begun a cross-border investigation after a bomb was left under the car of an off-duty officer at a Belfast golf club.\n\nOne of the vehicles police believe was used in the murder bid was registered in the Republic of Ireland.\n\nThe device was hidden under the car at Shandon Park Golf Club in east Belfast.\n\nPolice said that the main line of inquiry was \"violent dissident republicans\".\n\nOn Saturday night, police examined CCTV footage and searched the car park of the club, which is located close to the PSNI headquarters on the Knock Road.\n\nSpeaking on Sunday, Det Supt Sean Wright said the investigation centres on two cars which were found burnt out in Etna Drive in north Belfast.\n\nOne was a Green Skoda Octavia with a Dublin registration, 01 D 78089.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\n\"The other car is a Silver Saab with the registration NFZ 3216,\" he said.\n\nDet Supt Wright appealed to the public for footage of the area around the golf club between 19:00 BST on Friday and 07:00 BST on Saturday.\n\n\"If you were a pedestrian, a driver of a car, do you have dashcam footage? If you live in that area, do you have CCTV? We want to see it,\" he said.\n\nHe said that the device was \"designed to kill\" and that it was \"sufficiently sophisticated that had it exploded the likely outcome would have been murder\".\n\n\"The device was capable of functioning,\" he added. \"We are extremely fortunate it did not go off.\"\n\nHe added that it was not just the off-duty officer who was put in danger on Saturday, but the many others attending the club and living in the surrounding area.\n\nAssistant Chief Constable George Clarke said the officer whose car was targeted was \"obviously shaken\" by the experience.\n\n\"We will do our very best to support him, to ensure that he is helped through what will be a very difficult and traumatic time in the days to come,\" he added.\n\n\"Officers know the need to be vigilant. They know the risks they face and despite that, they come to work and face us all every day.\"\n\nHe blamed dissident republicans for the attack, saying they had acted \"recklessly, cruelly and viciously\".\n\nPolice officers throughout Northern Ireland have been told to step up their personal security.\n\nThe Police Federation, which represents rank and file officers, said there was a need for extra vigilance.\n\nOn Saturday, the bomb was examined by Army bomb disposal experts, who declared it to be a \"viable improvised explosive device\".", "Donald Trump is making a much-delayed state visit to Britain this week.\n\nOver three days the US president will be hosted by royalty and politicians. He will also take part in commemorations to mark the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings.\n\nBut behind the pageantry lie policy differences that divide Britain and the United States.\n\nState visits are primarily royal affairs, with the emphasis as much on ceremony as politics. But even so, the potential for slip-ups is huge.\n\nDonald Trump made a mistake last year when he turned his back on the Queen and walked in front of her while inspecting the guard at Windsor Castle.\n\nThis time there will be the tricky moment when he gives a speech at the state banquet at Buckingham Palace. Will he address the Queen correctly? Recently the White House mistakenly referred to her as \"Her Royal Majesty\". (Those who deal regularly with royalty would know that it should just be \"Her Majesty\").\n\nWill Mr Trump continue speaking during the National Anthem, as President Obama did in 2011?\n\nWhen Mr Trump has tea with the Prince of Wales at Clarence House, will they manage to avoid airing their rather different views on climate change?\n\nMr Trump met the Queen when he visited the UK last year\n\nThe president has no incentive to mess things up - he clearly likes the pomp and pageantry of royalty and will want the pictures to look good back home ahead of his re-election campaign. But there remains the question of how much advice he will take from his protocol team.\n\nThe biggest potential flashpoint - in theory - could be the Duchess of Sussex who, in her past, pre-regal life, expressed opposition to Mr Trump's views. The US president told The Sun newspaper he was surprised Meghan had been so \"nasty\" about him.\n\nPerhaps fortuitously, the Duchess is still on maternity leave and will play no part in the visit.\n\nBut it will not have gone unnoticed that an American citizen who only recently married into the British royal family - and thus epitomizes the close relationship between both countries - will not be part of the team welcoming her president to these shores.\n\nMr Trump's visit comes at a tricky time politically for Britain. He will be visiting the lamest of lame duck prime ministers in the form of Theresa May who is standing down as Conservative leader at the end of the week.\n\nBritain is still gripped by the dread hand of the Brexit debate. In his Sun interview, the president criticised Mrs May for allowing the EU \"to have all the cards\" in the negotiations.\n\nAnd, in an interview published a day later, he told the Sunday Times the government should bring in Nigel Farage - an arch critic of Mrs May - to help the Brexit negotiations.\n\nThis week's visit is scheduled to include a joint news conference with Theresa May, something the pair did when he came to the UK last July\n\nMr Trump had already expressed his support for Nigel Farage, saying the leader of the newly-formed Brexit Party was his friend, a \"big power\" in the UK and someone for whom he had a lot of respect. Will Mr Trump find time to meet Mr Farage?\n\nDowning Street has rejected the idea of there being an official meeting between the two, but might there be time for a quick cup of tea at Winfield House, the London residence of the US ambassador? Neither side are ruling it out.\n\nOne minister told me this would be seen as both disappointing and rude. But Mr Trump rarely misses a chance to associate with like-minded politicians, if nothing else to emphasise what he sees as the growing success of his kind of politics.\n\nHe will not mind that the two main opposition party leaders - Jeremy Corbyn and Sir Vince Cable - have refused their invitations to dine with him at the state banquet.\n\nMr Trump also arrives in the middle of the Conservative leadership contest that will determine the next prime minister of the United Kingdom.\n\nHe has already backed one candidate, the front-runner, Boris Johnson. The president told The Sun the former foreign secretary would be an excellent prime minister who would do \"a very good job\".\n\nOn one hand, there will be some Conservative MPs and party members who will be impressed by this, welcoming the idea that a potential future prime minister already has a good relationship with a close ally.\n\nOn the other, there may be some MPs who believe the unofficial endorsement from an unpopular US president might not endear Mr Johnson to the wider British electorate, which has more mixed feelings about Mr Trump.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nRemember that Mr Trump has already backed Mr Johnson, saying when he was in the UK last year that Mr Johnson - a former US citizen - would make \"a great prime minister\".\n\nEqually interesting would be any remarks Mr Trump chooses to make about the Labour leader, Mr Corbyn, who could one day be the person he meets for lunch in Downing Street, a leader who has made no secret of his hostility towards many US policies.\n\nMr Trump told The Sun he was \"not offended\" by Mr Corbyn's refusal to attend the state banquet, saying: \"He is probably making a mistake because I think he would want to get along with the United States.\"\n\nIn a visit focused on ceremony and talks with an outgoing prime minister, the opportunity to discuss substantive policy will be, by necessity, constrained.\n\nBut there will be much to disagree about in a trip that is supposed to emphasise unity.\n\nTake, for example, the Middle East. The British and US disagree about how best to change Iran's behaviour - the UK still supports the agreement designed to curb Tehran's nuclear programme, the US does not and is ready to sanction any British firm or bank that trades with Iran.\n\nThe US has deployed a carrier strike force and B52 bombers to the region, something some British diplomats fear could provoke escalation, even war.\n\nAre these differences something Mr Trump will wish to raise in public?\n\nThe president will also bring with him his adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who is expected soon to announce the US so-called \"deal of the century\" to try to resolve the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.\n\nThe British government is concerned about any attempt to impose a unilateral plan that disposes of the two-state solution and seeks to buy off the Palestinians with hard cash.\n\nThe Americans have already made it clear they are willing to press ahead without European support, just so long as they have the backing of one or two Arab states.\n\nWill any tough talking in Downing Street spill over into the news conference that follows?\n\nLet us not forget China. The growing confrontation between the US and China is worrying British policymakers, not just because of the potential impact on global economic growth.\n\nBut there is also the not so minor matter of Huawei. The US is already angry at the decision - yet to be finalised - by British ministers to consider allowing the Chinese telecoms giant to build part of the UK's 5G mobile network.\n\nThey fear this would potentially give the Chinese state access - via Huawei - to British and thus American secrets.\n\nUS officials are warning that Mr Trump will not only raise this during the state visit but may even threaten to limit sharing intelligence with the UK as a result.\n\nJust consider what that might mean: the so-called \"special relationship\" has always had as a central core the sharing of intelligence - a relationship between security professionals that is supposed to be eternal, outside the squalls of political disagreement.\n\nSo it would be hard for the president to praise UK-US relations while at the same time threatening to withhold intelligence.\n\nUS officials say they are reassured that the UK decision on Huawei is not final and on hold until a new prime minister is elected.

Whereas Pakistan improved immeasurably, England were inexplicably shoddy.\n\nNot only that, but England often let their frustrations boil over in the field and there were a number of noticeable moments of tension between the two sides when they came to bat.\n\nAll of this was played out in an electric atmosphere, created mainly by Pakistan fans, whose near constant din was only dimmed when Root and Buttler were together.\n\nThe tension of the contest and energy of the crowd amounted to a wonderful occasion. This was the day that the World Cup came to life.\n\nRoot and Buttler tons not enough\n\nOn a slow pitch, England's top order struggled for impetus against the tricky spin and hostile pace of Pakistan.\n\nLike South Africa on Thursday, Pakistan opened with spin and saw Shadab Khan trap Jason Roy lbw. When Ben Stokes edged Shoaib Malik behind, it meant Buttler arrived at 118-4 with 231 required from just under 28 overs.\n\nHe was immediately into his destructive stride, heaving sixes over the leg side and driving through the covers. At the other end, Root, who was dropped by Babar Azam on nine, accumulated runs with dabs and nudges.\n\nWhile they were at the crease, England were on course for victory, but both fell just after reaching three figures.\n\nRoot sliced Shadab to short third man, Buttler (103) fell in almost identical fashion to the pace of Mohammad Amir.\n\nChris Woakes and Moeen Ali turned an equation of 61 from 39 balls to 29 from 14, but when both fell in successive Wahab Riaz deliveries, the game was up.\n• None Quiz: Name the century-makers from the 2015 World Cup\n\nBy the metric of their own team analyst, England put in their best fielding performance for four years in defeating South Africa. This must rank as one of their worst.\n\nNot only was the ground fielding littered with errors, but Roy put down the most straightforward chance off Mohammad Hafeez on 14. Hafeez went on to make 84.\n\nWoakes at least equalled a World Cup record with four catches, three superbly taken on the boundary, but he was one of a number of disappointing bowlers - his 3-71 made more respectable by some improved death bowling.\n\nAdil Rashid and Jofra Archer were expensive as only Moeen, who claimed 3-50, and Mark Wood, in the side for Liam Plunkett, provided any sort of control.\n\nPakistan, who were blown away by a barrage of West Indies bouncers on Friday, cashed in.\n\nOpeners Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq added 82 in 14 overs, with Babar then particularly harsh on Rashid in his 63. Hafeez was the most aggressive, while captain Sarfaraz Ahmed favoured the leg side for 55.\n\n'A great advertisement for the tournament' - what they said\n\nEngland captain Eoin Morgan: \"It was a very good game of cricket and a great advertisement for the tournament. We're bitterly disappointed to be on the wrong end of the result though.\n\n\"Trent Bridge is a high scoring ground, we felt the wicket was good, the outfield was rapid and we thought if we got partnerships going, 350 was in our grasp.\n\n\"Joe and Jos kept us in the game. If we could have got a substantial partnership earlier, we might have got over the line.\"\n\nPakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed: \"It was a great team effort.

In the last ODI series it was different. Today we fielded better and we bowled better.\"\n\nFormer England captain Michael Vaughan on TMS: \"England's fielding certainly cost them 30 or 40 runs.\n\n\"Full credit to Pakistan - the support they've had, the atmosphere they created.

I think that's a nonsense. Look around you, that's not what we see in this country.\n\n\"Of course there are people struggling with the cost of living. I understand that. But the point being is that we are addressing these things through getting to the root causes.\"\n\nThe chancellor said that for many people, the market economy was not working as it was \"supposed to\", and the idea the economy is \"generating and distributing wealth is at odds with the practice that they are experiencing\".\n\nHe said the government should be ensuring the market was \"delivering in the way that the textbooks tell us it will work.\n\n\"To deliver through competition, the best deal for consumers and to distribute wealth in a way that is fair.\n\n\"To the extent that it's not working, we have got to evolve the system.\"\n\nThe UN report cites independent experts saying that 14m people in the UK - a fifth of the population - live in poverty, according to a new measure that takes into account costs such as housing and childcare.\n\nAccording to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, 1.5m people experienced destitution in 2017 - meaning they had less than £10 a day after housing costs, or had to go without at least two essentials such as shelter, food, heat, light, clothing or toiletries during a one-month period.\n\nMr Hammond's comments came during an interview on Monday with Newsnight's Emily Maitlis, in which he warned MPs vying to be leader of the Conservative Party that they risked becoming \"Theresa May mark two\" unless they accepted the realities of Brexit.\n\nThe chancellor, who has yet to reveal who he will support in his party's leadership race, laid down a challenge for the candidates.\n\n\"Explain to me how you will avoid becoming Theresa May mark two, stuck in a holding pattern,\" he said.\n\nHe criticised some of the candidates' Brexit plans.\n\n\"An extension of time to try to renegotiate, when the EU have already said they have finished the negotiation and, indeed, have disbanded their negotiating team, strikes me as a not very auspicious policy.\"\n\nHe added: \"The debate we're having now is here, in the UK, about whether we are going to sign the Withdrawal Agreement or not, and about what kind of future relationship we then want to have - because the European Union is willing to talk to us about the shape of the future relationship.\"\n\nMr Hammond also said he believed that MPs from all sides should \"stop pontificating and get off their high horses\" in an effort to resolve the Brexit impasse.\n\nAsked whether he would prefer a no-deal outcome or no Brexit, he replied: \"Neither is an acceptable outcome, because no deal would be catastrophic for the country and its economy - and no Brexit would be seen as a gross breach of faith with the public.\"\n\nHe added: \"So we as democrats and we as parliamentarians should be absolutely clear that we cannot tolerate either of those outcomes,\" and said \"we have a solemn obligation to find a solution which avoids\" either.\n\nHe said that meant a deal was required.\n\n\"We will all be grumpy about it, we will all be dissatisfied. But in many ways that is the only way forward for the country,\" he said.\n\n\"If we end up with a deal that means half the people in this country think they achieved total victory and the other half think they have been totally defeated, that is not the recipe for unity in the future.

At the same time, the authorities were concerned about the knock-on effects of Cyclone Fani which had already struck India and Bangladesh.\n\nThe weather deteriorated in the Nepalese Himalayas days after the cyclone, forcing the government to suspend all mountaineering activities for at least two days.\n\nNearly 20 tents at the camp were blown away by strong winds and after the warning, several climbers, who were already en route to some of the higher camps, returned to base camp.\n\nProlonged bad weather meant that the practice of fixing bolted rope to assist climbers trying to reach the summit was delayed.\n\nBritish climber Robin Haynes Fisher (pictured) is among those who have died this year\n\nMeanwhile the crowd at base camp continued to build.\n\nEverest - which lies on the border between Nepal and China - can be reached from the Chinese side as well. However, the Chinese government issues fewer permits, and many mountaineering experts find the climb less interesting.\n\nAfter the ropes were fixed by mid-May, the first feasible clear-weather window was 19 and 20 May.\n\nBut only a few teams chose to climb then while the majority waited for the second window - from 22 to 24 May.\n\nMountaineering experts say this was when the crowd management went wrong.\n\n23 May saw the maximum number of climbers on one day - more than 250.\n\nClimbers had to wait for hours below the summit - both on the way up and on the way down.\n\nMany of them were exhausted and their oxygen cylinders were running low.\n\nNepal's mountaineering regulation requires expedition teams to have liaison officers on the mountains.\n\nThis time 59 of them were appointed to accompany the teams but only five of them stayed until the final part of the climb.\n\nSome did not even turn up, while most of those who did went home after a few days at the base camp.\n\nA photograph showing a long tailback went viral on the internet\n\nThese are often regular government officials who have no mountaineering experience, so they find it difficult to cope with the high altitude.\n\nThey get paid by expedition teams and most of them are happy to stay at home.\n\nIf all the liaison officials had stayed on the mountain, managing the crowd would have been much easier, a top government source at Everest base camp told the BBC.\n\n\"We could have spread the teams so that the first feasible window (19-20 May) would have seen more climbers and the pressure would have been less during the second window,\" they said.\n\n\"Since almost none of these liaison officials stayed, it became very difficult for the limited officials to handle this huge number of climbers.\"\n\nLiaison officials not turning up has been an issue ailing Nepal's mountaineering industry for years now.\n\nMeera Acharya, head of the mountaineering section at Nepal's tourism ministry, said 80% of the appointed officials did go to the base camp this time.\n\n\"But I admit that not all of our liaison officials stayed there for long. We are aware of this issue and we are working to address it.\"\n\n\"We do hear of deaths of climbers on Mount Kilimanjaro as well, why is Everest being singled out here?\"\n\nMountaineering experts say there is also an increase in the number of inexperienced climbers joining the growing crowd on Everest.\n\nThis time round, many of them had just one Sherpa guide with their team, officials at the base camp said.\n\n\"When you have a dangerous situation like this, one Sherpa will not be able to help you much because he will have to take care of himself.\"\n\nNepal has denied overcrowding is the sole reason for the rise in deaths\n\nSome of the mountaineers who successfully returned after summiting said they had seen climbers struggling because they were running out of oxygen - they had to wait much longer.\n\n\"This new generation of climbers, eager to bag the top and brag back home, didn't know enough to understand the difference between climbing Everest and Makalu (Mount Makalu, the 5th highest peak southeast of Everest),\" says Alan Arnette, an experienced mountaineer and writer on mountaineering issues.\n\n\"They joined a random team of individuals with shared logistics for an independent climb. They didn't understand the word 'independent' and had no experience to evaluate the risks.\"\n\nVeteran climbers have long suggested Nepal's government should introduce certain criteria, including mandatory experience of having climbed peaks above 6,000m, for issuing Everest climbing permits.\n\nThe quest to get anyone willing to pay has been mainly down to intense competition between operators, particularly old and new ones.\n\nWith the entry of new expedition operators offering cheaper prices, mountaineers say even some of the established ones have been forced to cut their fees.\n\n\"As a result, you see agencies hiring inexperienced people as guides who cannot offer the right guidance to their clients when they have a situation like this,\" said Tshering Pande Bhote, vice president of Nepal National Mountain Guides Association.\n\n\"Unfortunately the competition is for volume and not for quality.\"\n\nExpedition operators admit there are problems but they argue they also need to increase the number of visitors for the growth of the industry.\n\n\"Next year, for example, is Visit Nepal Year (a mega-tourism campaign that aims to bring in two million tourists),\" says Dambar Parajuli, president of the Expedition Operators Association of Nepal.\n\n\"So we will need to have more visitors, including mountaineers, but clearly how we manage traffic jams like this remains our major challenge.\"", "The boy was taken to Leeds General Infirmary where he was treated for head injuries\n\nThe condition of a seven-year-old boy who fell from a rollercoaster is improving, police say.\n\nThe boy was airlifted to Leeds General Infirmary with head injuries after the incident at Lightwater Valley, near Ripon, North Yorkshire, on Thursday and was in a critical condition.\n\nNorth Yorkshire Police said he was now \"breathing independently and his condition continues to improve\".\n\nWitnesses said the child fell about 15ft (4.6m) from the Twister ride.\n\nOther people at the theme park reported hearing screams and seeing the boy \"hanging backwards\" from the carriage.\n\nThe child was airlifted from Lightwater Valley on Thursday\n\nNorth Yorkshire Police and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) are investigating.\n\nLightwater Valley said the Twister ride would be closed \"indefinitely\", but the park is next due to open as normal on Thursday.\n\nThe theme park tweeted after the incident that it was \"devastated\".\n\nIn June 2001, 20-year-old Gemma Savage from South Yorkshire died when two of the rollercoaster's cars collided.\n\nFollow BBC Yorkshire on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

The 8.8cm sculpture is made of walrus ivory\n\nA medieval chess piece that was missing for almost 200 years had been unknowingly kept in a drawer by an Edinburgh family.\n\nThey had no idea that the object was one of the long-lost Lewis Chessmen - which could now fetch £1m at auction.\n\nThe chessmen were found on the Isle of Lewis in 1831 but the whereabouts of five pieces have remained a mystery.\n\nThe Edinburgh family's grandfather, an antiques dealer, had bought the chess piece for £5 in 1964.\n\nHe had no idea of the significance of the 8.8cm piece (3.5in), made from walrus ivory, which he passed down to his family.\n\nThey have looked after it for 55 years without realising its importance, before taking it to Sotheby's auction house in London.\n\nThe Lewis Chessmen are among the biggest draws at the British Museum and the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.\n\nThey are seen as an \"important symbol of European civilisation\" and have also seeped into popular culture, inspiring everything from children's show Noggin The Nog to part of the plot in Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone.\n\nSotheby's expert Alexander Kader, who examined the piece for the family, said his \"jaw dropped\" when he realised what they had in their possession.\n\n\"They brought it in for assessment,\" he said. \"That happens every day.

From time to time, she would remove the chess piece from the drawer in order to appreciate its uniqueness.\"\n\nThe Lewis Chessmen set includes seated kings and queens, bishops, knights and standing warders and pawns. Some 82 pieces are now in the British Museum and 11 pieces held by the National Museum of Scotland. As well as the chess pieces, the hoard includes 14 \"tablemen\" gaming pieces and a buckle.\n\nSince the hoard was uncovered in 1831, one knight and four warders have been missing from the four combined chess sets.\n\nThe newly-discovered piece is a warder, a man with helmet, shield and sword and the equivalent of a rook on a modern chess board, which \"has immense character and power\".\n\nThe Lewis Chessmen were found on the Isle of Lewis in 1831 but the whereabouts of five pieces have remained a mystery\n\nThe discovery of the hoard remains shrouded in mystery, with stories of it being dug up by a cow grazing on sandy banks.\n\nIt is thought it was buried shortly after the objects were made, possibly by a merchant to avoid taxes after being shipwrecked, and so remained underground for 500 years.\n\nMr Kader, who has kept the discovery under wraps for six months while authenticating the find, said: \"We can safely say that a million pounds will transform the seller's life.\"\n\nHe added: \"There are still four out there somewhere.

So BGT's overnight audience of 8.5 million is a strong performance at a time when watching patterns are constantly changing.

It's been watched by 13.67 million, including catch-up platforms, making it 2019's most watched piece of television.\n\nIt joins a small select group of shows, major sporting events aside, that can still achieve figures in excess of 13 million. Over the past year, these have included writer Jed Mercurio's other big BBC drama Bodyguard, Strictly Come Dancing and ITV's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.\n\nMasked Magician X was the runner-up and shocked the judges and audience by revealing he was actually former contestant Marc Spelmann, who appeared in the 2018 series but failed to make it to the final.\n\nSpelman's big reveal was preceded by a video montage of his previous performances during which Ant is seen saying: \"Imagine at the end he takes it off and it's someone we know?\"\n\nClose to tears, he told the audience: \"It was always about hope. I'm never giving up. It's been an honour sharing X with you. I'm X,\" he said.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser. Please enable Javascript or try a different browser.

The BBC's Jonny Dymond on what to expect from President Trump's visit to the UK\n\nGeorge W Bush and Barack Obama are the only other US presidents to have been given a state visit.\n\nState visits differ from official visits and are normally at the invitation of the Queen, who acts on advice from the government. The Queen usually receives one or two heads of state per year and has hosted 112 of these visits since becoming monarch in 1952.", "Donald Trump visited the Queen at Buckingham Palace on Monday morning\n\nDonald Trump and the Queen may come from different worlds, but few would deny they at least share an appreciation of pageantry - and that was not in short supply when the US president arrived at Buckingham Palace.\n\nFollowing the Changing the Guard, Mr Trump's helicopter - Marine One - whipped up dust from nearby Green Park as it flew overhead, eagerly followed by a Mexican wave of smartphones from the crowd below.\n\nAmerica's leader is a man who inspires strong views on all sides - and that was evident in central London on the first day of his UK trip.\n\n\"It's our first time in London,\" said Laura Curri, visiting the UK with her family from Florida. \"We heard Trump was going to be at the palace and we're huge fans so we came down.\"\n\nHer husband, John Curri, hopes the visit will lead to \"more unity\" between the US and UK.\n\n\"You're leaders over here and we're leaders in our part of the world - this visit should make us both stronger,\" he said.\n\nThe Curri family were visiting the UK from Florida\n\nAsked if he thinks the president is misunderstood in the UK, Mr Curri told the BBC: \"People want honesty and strong leadership. I think now it has arrived people are scared - but it's here to stay.\"\n\nAnd it is not just visitors to the UK who saw benefits in Mr Trump's visit.\n\nHusband and wife Tony and Jennifer Holdcroft, describing themselves as \"proud Brexiteers\", said they made the trip down from Stoke-on-Trent \"to welcome the president and combat the protesters\".\n\n\"We think he's a brilliant man,\" said Mrs Holdcroft. \"He's straight talking, he's firm and he looks after his own people.\n\n\"This visit is about friendship, which we've had for years and years, and keeping up the alliance.\"\n\nTony and Jennifer Holdcroft, from Stoke, were unimpressed with Mayor of London Sadiq Khan's criticism of Mr Trump\n\nMr Holdcroft added: \"At the end of the day, why shouldn't he come? All these people dissing him are dissing our Queen because she's the one who invited him.\n\n\"He has been invited as the president of America, not as Donald Trump.\"\n\nWhile Mr Trump was being received by the Queen inside the palace, 100m away - in Green Park - the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery began putting on a show of their own.\n\nWith the first deafening blast of the ceremonial guns, those waiting outside Buckingham Palace rushed over, phones outstretched ahead of them, attempting to capture the scenes.\n\nNot everyone, however, shared in the excitement.\n\nThe King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery perform a gun salute in Green Park, next to Buckingham Palace\n\nDr Abdulkadar Alzuabi, who came from Manchester to protest against Mr Trump's visit, said: \"I don't think the UK should listen to him, we're different to him in this country.\n\n\"In this country, if you are British, if you are a refugee, if you are black or white, if you are European or an Arab, you are equal.\n\n\"He's trying to use his influence to change how things are in the UK.

Ahead of the vote, a number of actors and filmmakers linked with the city wrote an open letter urging residents not to support the AfD.\n\nThe party's initial success led to speculation that it could make an electoral breakthrough ahead of regional elections in September.\n\nBut the result ultimately provided a boost to Chancellor Angela Merkel, whose governing coalition with the Social Democratic Party (SPD) has been shaken by heavy losses in the European elections in May.\n\n\"I am happy that a majority has chosen to vote for me,\" Mr Ursu, who moved to Germany from Romania in the 1990s, said following his victory. \"But in the end it is not about two candidates but the orientation of this town to the outside world.\"\n\n\"We remain an open society and do not isolate ourselves,\" the 51-year-old added.\n\nMr Wippel - a former police officer - said the AfD remained in a \"good position\" despite the loss.\n\n\"It was not a vote for Mr Ursu but more a vote against me,\" he said. \"The CDU had to rely on support from many groups... without whom they would not have made it.\"\n\nThe AfD entered the federal parliament for the first time in 2017, after it won 94 seats in the 709-seat lower house (Bundestag).\n\nSome statements by its leaders have been condemned as encouraging neo-Nazi extremism.

At that stage, the bill was up to £30m.\n\nHowever, the figure could now be £40m after appeal court judges held that holiday pay should be calculated on the basis of actual annual working days.\n\nIt is understood payments could be in the region of £10,000 on average per individual.\n\nBBC News NI's Home Affairs Correspondent Julian O'Neill said the PSNI had previously accepted \"3,700 personnel had been short changed\" after holiday pay was miscalculated in breach of European law.\n\nHe said the appeal, brought by the PSNI Chief Constable George Hamilton and the Police Authority, (now the Policing Board) had challenged the period of time settlements should cover.\n\nOur correspondent said the dismissal of the appeal meant \"what is owed must now be recalculated from as far back as 1998\".\n\nChief Constable George Hamilton's appeal against a tribunal decision on holiday pay has been dismissed\n\nThe appeal court judge said that the \"lead cases should now continue before the tribunal to a final determination\".\n\nPSNI Assistant Chief Constable George Clarke said the PSNI was now seeking further legal advice on the matter.\n\n\"This will include considering implications of the judgement and how the costs will be met,\" he said.\n\nThe chairman of the Police Federation for Northern Ireland, Mark Lindsay, hailed the judgement as a \"major victory\".\n\n\"This more than justifies our decision to go to the Employment Tribunal as we believed there was something inherently unfair in the way officers were being denied what was rightfully their entitlement,\" he said.\n\nHe added that the federation was now seeking \"a timely and final resolution\" but warned that it could take a long time due to the number of claims involved.\n\nSolicitor John McShane, who represents the officers and civilian workers, described the result as \"significant\".\n\nHe said the claim was not for compensation but was \"a claim to actually get paid what they are properly entitled to be paid\".\n\nHe said they would now begin negotiations with the chief constable to \"bring a financial conclusion to the matter\".", "The BBC has uncovered evidence that life-saving drugs meant for the sick have been stolen and sold on illegally.\n\nAfrica Eye has been undercover in Uganda to expose how some health workers there are at the heart of criminal networks.", "In 2015, Iran agreed a long-term deal on its nuclear programme with a group of world powers known as the P5+1 - the US, UK, France, China, Russia and Germany.\n\nIt came after years of tension over Iran's alleged efforts to develop a nuclear weapon. Iran insisted that its nuclear programme was entirely peaceful, but the international community did not believe that.\n\nUnder the accord, Iran agreed to limit its sensitive nuclear activities and allow in international inspectors in return for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions.\n\nHere is what was meant to happen according to the plan, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).\n\nIran's uranium stockpile will be reduced by 98% to 300kg for 15 years\n\nUranium can have nuclear-related uses once it has been refined, or enriched. This is achieved by increasing the content of its most fissile isotopes, U-235, through the use of centrifuges - machines which spin at supersonic speeds.\n\nLow-enriched uranium, which typically has a 3-5% concentration of U-235, can be used to produce fuel for commercial nuclear power plants. Highly enriched uranium has a purity of 20% or more and is used in research reactors. Weapons-grade uranium is 90% enriched or more.\n\nIn July 2015, Iran had two uranium enrichment plants - Natanz and Fordo - and was operating almost 20,000 centrifuges.\n\nUnder the JCPOA, the country was limited to installing no more than 5,060 of the oldest and least efficient centrifuges at Natanz until 2026 - 10 years after the deal's \"implementation day\" in January 2016.\n\nIran's stockpile of enriched uranium was also reduced by 98% to 300kg (660lbs), a figure that must not be exceeded until 2031. It must also keep the stockpile's level of enrichment at 3.67%.\n\nIn addition, research and development must take place only at Natanz and be limited until 2024.\n\nNo enrichment is permitted at Fordo until 2031, and the underground facility must be converted into a nuclear, physics and technology centre. The 1,044 centrifuges left at the site are allowed to produce radioisotopes for use in medicine, agriculture, industry and science.\n\nIran is redesigning the Arak reactor so it cannot produce any weapons-grade plutonium\n\nIran had been building a heavy-water nuclear facility near the town of Arak. Spent fuel from a heavy-water reactor contains plutonium suitable for a nuclear bomb.\n\nWorld powers had originally wanted Arak dismantled because of the potential military use. Under an interim nuclear deal in 2013, Iran agreed not to commission or fuel the reactor.\n\nUnder the JCPOA, Iran said it would redesign the reactor so it could not produce any weapons-grade plutonium, and that all spent fuel would be sent out of the country as long as the modified reactor existed.\n\nIran must also not build additional heavy-water reactors or accumulate any excess heavy water until 2031.\n\nIran is required to allow IAEA inspectors to access any site they deem suspicious\n\nAt the time of the agreement, then-US President Barack Obama's administration expressed confidence that the JCPOA would prevent Iran from building a nuclear programme in secret. Iran, it said, had committed to \"extraordinary and robust monitoring, verification, and inspection\".\n\nInspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the global nuclear watchdog, were tasked with continuously monitoring Iran's declared nuclear sites and verifying that no fissile material is moved covertly to a secret location to build a bomb.\n\nIran also agreed to implement the Additional Protocol to their IAEA Safeguards Agreement, which allows inspectors to access any site anywhere in the country they deem suspicious.\n\nUntil 2031, Iran will have 24 days to comply with any IAEA access request. If it refuses, an eight-member Joint Commission - including Iran - will rule on the issue. It can decide on punitive steps, including the reimposition of sanctions. A majority vote by the commission suffices.\n\nA UN ban on the import of ballistic missile technology will remain in place for up to eight years\n\nBefore July 2015, Iran had enough enriched uranium and centrifuges to create eight to 10 bombs, according to the then Obama administration.\n\nUS experts estimated at the time that if Iran had decided to rush to make a bomb, it would take two to three months until it had enough 90%-enriched uranium to build a nuclear weapon - the so-called \"break-out time\".\n\nThe Obama administration said the JCPOA would remove the key elements Iran would need to create a bomb and increase its break-out time to one year or more.\n\nIran also agreed not to engage in activities, including research and development, which could contribute to the development of a nuclear bomb.\n\nIn December 2015, the IAEA's board of governors voted to end its decade-long investigation into the possible military dimensions of Iran's nuclear programme.\n\nThe agency's then-director-general, Yukiya Amano, said the report concluded that until 2003 Iran had conducted \"a co-ordinated effort\" on \"a range of activities relevant to the development of a nuclear explosive device\". Iran continued with some activities until 2009, but after that there were \"no credible indications\" of weapons development, he added.\n\nIran also agreed to the continuation of a UN ban on its imports and exports of conventional arms until 2020. Restrictions on its import of ballistic missile technology will remain in place until 2023.\n\nThe nuclear deal allowed Iran to sell crude oil again on the international market\n\nSanctions previously imposed by the UN, US and EU in an attempt to force Iran to halt uranium enrichment crippled its economy, costing the country more than $160bn (£119bn) in oil revenue from 2012 to 2016 alone.\n\nUnder the deal, all nuclear-related sanctions on Iran were lifted and the country was able to resume selling oil on international markets and using the global financial system for trade. It also gained access to more than $100bn in assets frozen overseas.\n\nHowever, in May 2018, then-US President Donald Trump abandoned the JCPOA, calling it \"defective at its core\". He reinstated all US sanctions on Iran that November as part of a \"maximum pressure\" campaign to compel the country to negotiate a replacement that would also curb its ballistic missile programme and its involvement in regional conflicts.\n\nBut Iran refused and saw its economy plunge into recession and the value of its currency fall to record lows, which in turn caused inflation to soar to the highest level in decades.\n\nWhen the sanctions were tightened in 2019, Iran began breaching the deal's restrictions, arguing that the JCPOA allowed one party to \"cease performing its commitments... in whole or in part\" in the event of \"significant non-performance\" by others.\n\nBy November 2021, Iran had amassed a stockpile of enriched uranium that was many times larger than permitted, including at least 17.7kg (39lb) of material enriched to 60% purity - just below the level needed for a bomb. It had also resumed enrichment activity at Fordo; installed more centrifuges, and of a more advanced type, than allowed; and taken steps in the production of enriched uranium metal, which is a key material in nuclear weapons.\n\nIran had also significantly curtailed access for international inspectors by ceasing implementation of the Additional Protocol of its IAEA Safeguards Agreement.\n\nTalks to save the JCPOA and bring Iran back into compliance began in May 2021, after Joe Biden succeeded Mr Trump as US president. He says the US will rejoin and lift the sanctions if Iran reverses its breaches. His Iranian counterpart, Ebrahim Raisi, says the US must make the first move.\n\nIf the negotiations were to fail and Iran was confirmed to have violated the deal, all UN sanctions would automatically \"snap back\" in place for 10 years, with the possibility of a five-year extension.", "Channel 4 set up an empty podium for Boris Johnson, who declined to take part in the debate\n\nContenders to replace Theresa May as Conservative leader have clashed over delivering Brexit during a TV debate.\n\nThe MPs argued over whether a new deal could be renegotiated with the EU, and the prospect of a no-deal Brexit.\n\nBoris Johnson came under fire for not taking part in the Channel 4 debate but defended his stance, suggesting it would \"be slightly cacophonous\".\n\nHis leadership bid has been backed by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who dropped out of the race on Friday.\n\nSome of the sharpest exchanges came over whether Parliament should be shut down - prorogued - in order to push through a no-deal Brexit by 31 October - something four of the five candidates argued against.\n\nThe UK had been due to leave the EU on 29 March, but EU leaders agreed to delay the date to October after MPs repeatedly rejected Theresa May's Brexit deal.\n\nInternational Development Secretary Rory Stewart said proroguing Parliament was a \"deeply disturbing\" option and Home Secretary Sajid Javid warned \"you don't deliver democracy by trashing our democracy\".\n\nHowever ex-Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab refused to rule it out, saying \"every time one of these candidates take an option away… we weaken our chances of getting the best deal.\"\n\nChannel 4's debate attracted an audience of 1.3 million and 7.8% of the audience share. The programme was up against Soccer Aid on ITV, Countryfile on BBC One and Top Gear on BBC Two.\n\nNo stand-out winner and a debate that won't trouble the absent front-runner Boris Johnson.\n\nHis team thought there was nothing to be gained from pitching up for this blue-on-blue skirmish which was mostly good natured but repeatedly raised questions the candidates struggled to answer.\n\nHow can the next prime minister renegotiate a deal with the EU? How can it be done by October? How could the UK leave without a deal if MPs refuse?\n\nAt one end of the debate, Dominic Raab was rounded on for saying he would be prepared to try and suspend parliament if it was the only way to get the UK out without a deal at the end of October.\n\nIn the opposite corner, Rory Stewart was the only one who said a renegotiation with the EU in the next four months was a fantasy promise.\n\nAt some point this week one of the five will break out and become the challenger to Boris Johnson for the ballot of Tory members.\n\nThe candidates at the debate before a studio audience in east London also argued over whether a no-deal Brexit should be considered.\n\nMr Javid said no deal was the \"last thing\" he wanted, but added: \"You do plan for no deal precisely because you want a deal.\"\n\nMr Raab said Britain would be able to \"manage those risks\" associated with leaving the EU without a deal.\n\nHowever, Mr Stewart said \"I think a no-deal Brexit is a complete nonsense,\" adding \"it would be deeply damaging for our economy.\"\n\nThe candidates were united in condemnation of the Labour leader with Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt accusing Jeremy Corbyn of being \"against aspiration\".\n\nEnvironment Secretary Michael Gove argued that he was the candidate Mr Corbyn would be most scared of facing at Prime Minister's Questions.\n\nMr Johnson, the front-runner in the leadership race, was represented at the debate by an empty lectern.\n\nAnd Mr Hunt attacked his failure to appear.\n\n\"Where's Boris?\" he asked, adding \"if his team won't allow him out with five fairly friendly colleagues, how is he going to deal with 27 European countries?\"\n\nMr Stewart also made a pointed dig at his absent colleague, saying he hoped \"one of us\" - referring to the MPs who had attended the debate - becomes prime minister.\n\nSpeaking to Radio 4's World at One on Friday, Mr Johnson said he was \"pretty bewildered\" by claims he was dodging scrutiny and said the public had had \"quite a lot of blue-on-blue action, frankly, over the last three years\".\n\nHe said the best time to take part was on Tuesday after the second ballot and would be at the BBC debate on Tuesday, hosted by Emily Maitlis.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nHealth Secretary Matt Hancock - who withdrew from the leadership race after the first ballot - has backed Mr Johnson \"as the best candidate to unite the Conservative Party\" as has Esther McVey, who was eliminated in the first round.\n\nWriting in the Times, Mr Hancock said Mr Johnson had a \"unique personality\", adding: \"I have confidence Boris will be a One Nation prime minister because that's how he ran London - consistently - for eight years.\"\n\nMr Gove told BBC Radio 4's Today he was \"naturally disappointed\" that Mr Hancock had chosen to endorse his rival rather than himself.\n\nWhile Mr Johnson remained the frontrunner, Mr Gove said \"we need to make sure he is tested\" and he believed he could make it to the final two as a \"strong alternative\" who was equipped to \"be prime minister from day one\".\n\nThe TV debate also saw politicians being asked about their priorities apart from Brexit.\n\nMr Javid chose funding education and further education colleges, saying: \"We have cut back too much in that space.\"\n\nMr Raab said he wanted to improve state schools and offer more choices for young apprenticeships, while Mr Gove said children would be his top priority and emphasised the importance of protecting the environment for the future.\n\nMr Hunt told the audience \"every Conservative has two desires: cut taxes and spend more on public services.\" He also said he would focus on literacy and the social care system.\n\nMr Stewart said his central priority would be fixing adult social care, describing the issue as \"the great unfinished revolution\".\n\nAsked about their weaknesses, Mr Gove said he was impatient, while Mr Raab said he was \"a restless soul\" who \"always wanted to make things better\".\n\nMr Javid admitted to being stubborn while Mr Stewart said there were \"many things he didn't know about the world\". However, he added that \"we need leaders who listen\" and criticised \"macho posturing\".\n\nMr Hunt joked that his biggest weakness was \"getting my wife's nationality wrong\" - but on a more serious note, said in his battle with junior doctors as health secretary, he could have been \"better at communicating\" what he was trying to do.\n\nThe candidates will now go on to take part in further ballots until only two remain.\n\nThe final pair will be put to a vote of the 160,000 members of the Conservative Party from 22 June. The winner is expected to be announced about four weeks later.", "Det Con Rebecca Bryant kept secret about her relationship with a juror\n\nA police officer lied about her link with a juror in a murder trial, leading to three convictions being quashed and a retrial, a disciplinary panel has heard.\n\nDet Con Rebecca Bryant was a liaison officer to the family of Lynford Brewster, who was murdered in Cardiff in 2016.\n\nThree men were found guilty of killing him at a re-trial in March.\n\nMs Bryant's son's girlfriend was a juror in the original trial in 2016.\n\nThe South Wales Police misconduct hearing was told Ms Bryant committed gross misconduct by lying about the fact she knew Lauren Jones, who was called for jury service for the trial.\n\nShe also sent her texts telling her not to reveal their relationship just before the trial started.\n\nPresenting officer Jeremy Johnson told the hearing Ms Bryant had said in a text to Ms Jones: \"Don't tell any of them who you are to me in case they think I told you about it (the case) even though I haven't.\"\n\nMr Johnson said: \"DC Bryant knew the juror. She was the family liaison officer and failed to reveal that to the court or the CPS (Crown Prosecution Service).\"\n\nThe evening before the trial, Ms Bryant sent a message to Ms Jones saying: \"Are you looking forward to tomorrow?\"\n\nLynford Brewster was stabbed to death after a \"violent disagreement\" over drugs\n\nMs Jones replied: \"Yeah, I'm quite excited, a bit nervous because I don't know what I'm getting into xx.\"\n\nMs Bryant responded: \"The murder trial is put back to the 1st not that that matters cos they'll hold you til then if they need to.

That was untrue.\n\n\"She corrected the position the following day, but by that stage the CPS had been given untruthful information in denying that underlying concern.\"\n\nThe morning after she had been questioned, Ms Bryant told the same officer: \"I'm really, really, sorry, I do know that girl.\"\n\nWhen Det Ch Insp O'Shea asked her why she did not disclose the information the day before, she replied: \"I panicked.\"\n\nThe family of Lynford Brewster attended the initial jury selections and Mr Brewster's mother June Whittaker recalled a conversation with Ms Bryant after discovering one of the original jurors was known to the family.\n\nMr Brewster's stepfather said it might be good to have someone they knew on the jury, but Ms Bryant warned them: \"You can't do that, that's perjury, you could get into trouble for that and could mess the case up.\"\n\n\"I was glad she did this because the last thing I wanted was a retrial,\" he said.\n\nThat juror declared their connection voluntarily and was replaced.\n\nMs Bryant has already admitted three breaches of professional behaviour in failing to disclose her relationship to Ms Jones.\n\nShe denies dishonest behaviour in relation to Ms Jones' hair appointment, and gross misconduct.\n\nMs Bryant joined South Wales Police in 1988, becoming a detective constable in 2001.

He said any issue with payments should be taken up with it.\n\nThe Small Business Commissioner Paul Uppal has been speaking to authorities in Australia about Viewble Media\n\nMr Aiken did not address concerns that the operation could be a scam or claims that the deals were mis-sold to businesses.\n\nDavid Reid said that a new media partner had been appointed in the UK and it has not had any complaints.\n\nHe also added that the Australian business is in liquidation, and said any questions should be directed to the liquidator.\n\nPaul Uppal, the Small Business Commissioner, said his office has been working with authorities in Australia and has also been dealing directly with businesses.\n\n\"They've told us just how draconian the contracts are and that they've ended up being signed into and how they now feel that they are trapped because of the situation,\" he said.\n\n\"So we're seeing first-hand the real stress that this can cause for a small business.

which Mr Johnson was part of - effectively ended a long-standing postcode lottery in school funding in England.\"\n\nHowever, many in the lowest funded areas, which include many conservative heartlands in the counties and shires, remain disappointed that the formula will not lead to substantial increases for all.\n\nThe government has argued that school spending in England is at its highest level ever in cash terms.\n\nA statement from the Department for Education added: \"We know schools face budgeting challenges, which is why we have introduced a wide range of support to help schools reduce costs and get the best value from their resources.\"\n\n\"The Secretary of State has made clear that as we approach the next spending review, he will back head teachers to have the resources they need to deliver a world class education in the years ahead.\"", "Egypt is the largest Arab country, and has played a central role in Middle Eastern politics.\n\nIn the 1950s President Gamal Abdul Nasser pioneered Arab nationalism and the non-aligned movement, while his successor Anwar Sadat made peace with Israel and turned back to the West.\n\nEgypt's great cities -

as toads, or deer and livestock.\n\nThe Department for Transport says it hopes to help prevent accidents and reverse a decline in wildlife numbers.\n\nTransport Secretary Chris Grayling called on local authorities and animal welfare groups to identify accident and wildlife hotspots where the new signs should be located.\n\nRecent estimates put the hedgehog population in England, Wales and Scotland at about one million, compared with 30 million in the 1950s.\n\nThe DfT says its new sign is \"filling a gap\" between the existing signs carrying warnings about smaller animals such as migratory toads and wildfowl, and those highlighting larger animals.\n\nJill Nelson, from the People's Trust for Endangered Species (PTES), says the signs were created after the charity and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society (BHPS) discussed their concerns with Mr Grayling.\n\n\"We welcome this focus on road safety and protection for all small mammals,\" she said.\n\nResearch by PTES and the BHPS in 2018 suggested hedgehogs are disappearing more rapidly in the countryside, as hedgerows and field margins are lost to intensive farming, and the DfT says the sign is designed to reverse their decline \"in particular\".\n\nThe DfT says that between 2005 and 2017,100 people were killed, and a further 14,173 injured in accidents in Britain where an animal, excluding horses, were

reaction during the 2015 interview was shown to the jury in the trial of Carl Beech, 51, who denies 12 counts of perverting the course of justice and one of fraud.\n\nThe peer, a D-Day veteran aged 95, was too ill to attend the trial in person.\n\nHis wife died in 2015 before detectives announced they were not charging him.\n\nBut Newcastle Crown Court was played the video of Lord Bramall's police interview in April 2015, weeks after his home had been raided by the Metropolitan Police, as part of the case against Mr Beech.\n\nMr Beech, who was given the name \"Nick\" when his claims were first reported in the media, is accused of lying about rapes, kidnapping, false imprisonment and sexual abuse by prominent people the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nAs well as Lord Bramall, he named former Home Secretary Leon Brittan, the former heads of MI5 and MI6 and ex-Tory MP Harvey Proctor among his alleged abusers.\n\n\"I am absolutely astonished, amazed and bemused,\" Lord Bramall said in the interview.\n\n\"I find it incredible that anybody should believe that someone of my career standing, integrity, should be capable of any of these things, including things like torture - unbelievable.\"\n\nMr Beech, from Gloucester, told police his stepfather, Major Ray Beech, had sexually abused him before taking him to Lord Bramall's offices in Wiltshire, where he was commander-in-chief of the UK land forces in about 1976.\n\nHe said the peer had undressed and sexually abused him, which Lord Bramall told detectives was \"absolute rubbish\" and \"complete nonsense\".\n\nTold that General Sir Roland Gibbs and General Sir Hugh Beach were also allegedly involved, he scoffed: \"They have taken in the whole damned Army.\"\n\nLord Bramall was interviewed by police in April 2015 when he was 91\n\nLord Bramall, who went on to become chief of defence staff between 1982 and 1985, suggested police should have been more sceptical of Mr Beech's claims, saying: \"You are an experienced officer, you must have got a feel if someone is not telling the truth.\"\n\nAsked about Sir Jimmy Savile, said to be another member of the gang, the former Army chief said he only knew him from television and he was \"one of the most odious people I have ever seen in my life\".\n\nAt one point, he said about his accuser: \"People make allegations about others later in life to see what they can gain from it.\"\n\nDetectives asked Lord Bramall if he could swim, as some of the abuse had allegedly happened at pool parties. \"I landed at Normandy and I jolly nearly had to swim,\" he replied.\n\nIn another interview conducted in July 2015, the jury heard Lord Bramall tell police about the impact of the investigation and media coverage, having just lost his wife at the age of 91.\n\n\"Because it is really awful someone in my position has had the damage done - mainly by what has gone to press and on the webnet - I hope you can report to your superiors and say there's clearly no case to answer and make it absolutely clear I am no longer a suspect and I have been taken out of the investigation,\" he said.\n\n\"Otherwise my reputation is still being damaged on Google, and that's not fair, after my record, at my time of life.\"\n\nThe jury heard that Lord Bramall, who is \"in very poor health\", was unwilling to give further evidence in court.\n\nDefence

The Watkinson family live self sufficiently in Wales\n\nThe government proposes reducing UK greenhouse gas emissions to almost zero by 2050, under a new plan to tackle climate change. The Victoria Derbyshire programme met a family who live self sufficiently and provide a glimpse of the kind of changes we may all need to make.\n\n\"The leap - handing your notice in, going off and not having a job - that's scary.\"\n\nCharis Watkinson, 34, is reflecting on her and husband Matthew's decision two years ago to give up their jobs as vets and their lives in Essex to go completely \"off-grid\".\n\nThe couple now live in rural Pembrokeshire with their two children - Elsa, five, and 18-month-old Billy. Their home, Beeview Farm - named after the bees they keep for honey - is so remote and hilly that they direct visitors to a field so they can be picked up in a 4x4.\n\nThe family generate their own electricity from solar panels and gas from their food waste.\n\nTheir home - swapping gas on the grid for renewables - is an example of how the UK population may have to live if the government is to meet its net zero emissions target.\n\nBritain is the first major nation to propose this target - widely praised by green groups.\n\nThe Watkinsons' house is bigger than it first looks, built from old horse boxes, caravans and trailers.\n\nBeeview Farm is made from a truck and camper van - among other things\n\n\"It's basically junk, scrap vehicles and junk - we've put most of it together,\" 42-year-old Matthew says, before showing off his many inventions.\n\nFor example, the spare bedroom is an old 4x4 with a full double mattress and an enviable ocean view. They have an outdoor and indoor shower, both equipped with hot water, made from old IBC tanks, commonly found on British farms. Metres away is a Swedish-style hot tub. Round the corner is Biff, the affectionate name given to the family's biodigester.\n\n''What we've essentially got is an artificial cow stomach, full of the normal bugs from a cow's stomach, and we are just feeding those bugs,\" Matthew explains. \"And those bugs are turning what we feed it into methane.\"\n\nThe family use this to power their oven and hob.\n\nThe family make money by selling eggs from their chickens\n\nWales has one of the most progressive policies in the UK regarding living off grid due to the decades-old One Planet Development Scheme. It allows agricultural land to be lived on when planning permission would otherwise not be granted, if certain conditions are met.\n\nThese include making a basic income off the land, which the Watkinsons do by selling honey and eggs, and providing all their own energy and water. They sell about 350 eggs a week, earning up to £800 a month.\n\nParticipants must increase biodiversity on the land and the family have done this. They have rented horses to re-sow meadows in a bid to \"re-wild\" the land. They must also grow a proportion of their own food - with a minimum of 30% and target of 65%. They were making nettle pakoras when I visited.\n\nThe only bill the family pay is their council tax.\n\n\"One of the most liberating things, from moving up here, is no electricity bills, no gas bills, no water bills,\" says Matthew.\n\nThe couple have two children, Elsa and Billy\n\nBut they have not reduced the amount of electricity they consume, explaining they still use it for charging mobile phones and laptops, as well as their TV and fridge.\n\n\"Everybody's used to a situation where things are available all the time, and we started to feel less and less secure,\" Matthew says. \"We'd like to be responsible for our own energy, our own food.\"\n\nTim Brewer, an expert in off-grid living, says almost every household could adopt self-sufficiency measures to some extent.\n\n\"Two major technologies that are appropriate for households generally - solar electric, or solar water heating panels - both of those technologies are really, really mature and they're really, really applicable for 99% of households in the UK,\" he explains.\n\nBut Matthew thinks it is not that simple.\n\n\"There's loads of people who'd love to do this already, but the planning process is such a barrier I don't know how many people will end up doing it in time to make a big difference,\" he says.\n\nFollow the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme on Facebook and Twitter - and see more of our stories here.", "About 130 properties in Wainfleet have been flooded after an average two months' rain fell in two days last week\n\nPeople evacuated from their homes in a flooded Lincolnshire town may not be able to return until Friday.\n\nMore than 580 homes in and around Wainfleet were evacuated after heavy rains led to the River Steeping bursting its banks on Wednesday.\n\nResidents still in their homes have been told to avoid using toilets, showers and washing machines due to a strain on the sewerage system.\n\nPumps are being used to try to reduce the water level.\n\nUp to 1,000 people have been evacuated from their homes\n\nThe Environment Agency said it had \"shifted 225 Olympic-sized swimming pools' worth of water\" overnight\n\nThe equivalent of about two months' rain fell in two days, forcing 1,000 people out of their homes - about half the population - and flooding nearly 130 properties in the town.\n\nTherese Coffey MP claimed the events of last week were unprecedented\n\nEnvironment Minister Therese Coffey, answering criticism that more should have been done to prevent the flooding, claimed the rainfall last week was unprecedented.\n\nShe said it was important to \"look at what went wrong and what can be done to remedy it in the future\".\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

Many producers had complained that \"there aren't any female writers [or] we don't know where to find them\", she said.\n\nMs Schuster also runs events where she says she \"forces\" her producers to have 10-minute conversations with three female writers. She has set up confidence workshops and is launching a mentoring network next month.\n\nShe has assigned young female writers to shadow shows like Roman sitcom Plebs, which is written by two men, and also hopes to extend the equality target to cover directors and crew members.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The BBC's defence and diplomatic correspondent Jonathan Marcus answers questions about the incident sent in by BBC News readers.\n\nMr G Riordan: Is there a salvage plan? Are the tankers guarded or escorted? Do the tankers have CCTV? How do we make the Strait of Hormuz safe? Is it an act of terror?\n\nA lot of good questions there. I suppose if it turns out to be a state actor, e.g. Iran, behind these attacks then one would not call them \"terrorist\" as such. Striking at another country's merchant ships might in some circumstances be considered an act of war.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter?\n\nA concerted effort to hamper normal shipping in the Gulf would also clearly have significant strategic implications. Currently tankers are not guarded, though in the past, e.g. during the Iran-Iraq war, a convoy system was introduced to shepherd tankers through these confined waters accompanied by warships.\n\nClearly, experts will now be assessing the extent of the damage to the two vessels. Modern merchant ships may well have CCTV on board to monitor key areas. How much help this might give to any investigation is unclear.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAnonymous: The Iranian government's past behaviour is a good indicator of their future intentions to create havoc if they are not stopped: but how?\n\nThis is certainly how the US and its allies see it. Iran has made threats against merchant shipping in the Gulf and, in the US view, is a highly destabilising actor in the region.\n\nIran clearly takes a very different view, insisting it has a right to pursue its own regional interests and specifically that it did not target any of these tankers.\n\nWhat people say and what people do may be different. Iran resents the US intrusion into the Gulf. It is opposed to US policy in the region in Syria and elsewhere.\n\nThe danger is that far from being frightened by the reinforced US military presence in the Gulf it may feel that it has some latitude to push back. This is one of the dangerous elements in this equation.\n\nRay: In this day and age with so much satellite observation why isn't there more proof of who the attackers are?\n\nWell, you are right, satellites can be helpful but many of the most capable intelligence-gathering variety tend to belong to a very small group of countries and even then their coverage is not total. They need to be tasked to look at specific areas.\n\nI have no doubt the US is monitoring Iranian activity in the Gulf from a variety of platforms: satellites; aircraft; communications and signals intercepts; radar tracking and so on. Governments tend to be cautious - especially the Americans - about showing their satellite data. Often they do not want to reveal the full extent of their capabilities.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nAs an aside, one of the most interesting developments over recent years is the use of civilian satellite data by security researchers and think tanks to significantly amplify our knowledge and to provide a separate source of satellite intelligence. This has, however, generally been used to study fixed locations, e.g. North Korean or Iranian rocket or nuclear facilities. It is very hard for such groups to monitor an area like the Gulf in real-time.\n\nHarry: I want to know how many vessels were hit by mines prior to the US escalating their presence in the region.\n\nThe \"escalation\" of the US military presence is to some extent a propaganda ploy by the US. The presence of a US aircraft carrier battle group for example - currently the USS Abraham Lincoln - is far from unusual. There has indeed been some reinforcement, notably a small number of warplanes; the return of a Patriot anti-missile battery; and a small amphibious unit.\n\nAgain, it is all about sending signals rather than necessarily preparing for conflict. But there is no doubt that the US retains a formidable military capability in the region.\n\nAs to chronology, the earlier limpet mine attack on the four vessels was on 12 May. Prior to this (around 10 May) the US had announced it was stepping up its deployments to the region following what it said were concerns that Iranian elements or proxy forces were planning a number of attacks against US interests. Specifically, they claim to have seen missiles being loaded onto boats. Subsequently that threat seems to have passed, but in the meantime the four tankers were mined.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Similar tactics to North Korea?\n\nAnd James: Do you think it was Iran behind these latest attacks, or is it USA trying to stir things up whilst Iran host Shinzo Abe, Japanese PM?\n\nLet's cut to the chase here. Is Iran the most likely country to be responsible for the attacks - probably yes.\n\nHas the United States made a 100 per cent case against Tehran? Not yet.\n\nWill Iran ever admit to these attacks even if its forces did carry them out? Clearly no.\n\nIs anyone else going own up to carrying them out? No.\n\nIt is not the BBC's job to ascribe blame but it is our job to bring the evidence to you, to describe the circumstances; and to report and to weigh-up what different people have to say. You then must come to your own conclusion.\n\nAs you can imagine many of the messages we get refer to wild conspiracy theories which betray more about their author's thinking than they do an assessment of real day-to-day events.\n\nThe US, having walked away from the nuclear deal, is clearly waging a campaign to pressure Iran. But to what end is not clear.\n\nThe demands made by key US officials of Tehran are simply unrealistic. The Trump Administration seems to be unclear as to its strategic goals.\n\nThinking the nuclear deal was a bad one and walking away from it is all very well. But to get a better deal in Mr Trump's terms appears to require Iran to radically change its behaviour and outlook; to almost cease being Iran. That is why critics of Mr Trump say that he really wants regime change in Tehran.\n\nThere certainly are people in his administration who support this. But equally Mr Trump, despite all his tweets and bluster, does not want to embark upon new overseas military commitments.\n\nIt also has to be said that all the other countries or organisations that were party to the nuclear deal (the JCPOA as it is known) think that whatever its flaws, that deal was better than no deal.\n\nThanks for all the questions.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAn Indian magician who was lowered into a river while shackled in a bid to recreate Harry Houdini's world-famous trick has drowned, police confirmed.\n\nChanchal Lahiri was meant to escape and swim to safety but did not emerge from the Hooghly river in West Bengal state.\n\nCrowds who watched him take the plunge on Sunday alerted the police, who then launched a search operation.\n\nHis body, which washed up some 1km (0.6 miles) from the site of the incident, was identified late on Monday.\n\nMr Lahiri, also known as Mandrake, was lowered into the river from a boat for his trick.\n\nHe was shackled with six locks and a chain as spectators on two boats watched him.\n\nSeveral people had also gathered by the shore and some stood on the landmark Howrah Bridge in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta).\n\nAccording to the Press Trust of India, the crowd started to panic after Mr Lahiri did not appear after more than 10 minutes.\n\nChanchal Lahiri went by the stage name Mandrake\n\nJayanta Shaw, a photographer with a local newspaper, witnessed Mr Lahiri attempting the trick.

Morsi subsequently faced a raft of other charges, and was sentenced to death, although the conviction was overturned.\n\nHe was on trial for espionage when he died in court on 17 June 2019.\n\nMohammed Morsi was born in the village of El-Adwah in the Nile Delta province of Sharqiya in 1951.\n\nHe studied Engineering at Cairo University in the 1970s before moving to the United States to complete a PhD.\n\nAfter returning to Egypt he became head of the engineering department at Zagazig University.\n\nHe rose through the ranks of the Muslim Brotherhood and served as an independent in the movement's parliamentary bloc from 2000 to 2005.\n\nAs an MP, he was occasionally praised for his oratorical performances, for example after a rail disaster in 2002 when he denounced official incompetence.\n\nMorsi was chosen as the Muslim Brotherhood's presidential candidate in April 2012 after the movement's deputy general guide, millionaire businessman Khairat al-Shater, was forced to pull out.\n\nIn his election campaign, Morsi presented himself as a bulwark against any revival of the old guard of Hosni Mubarak.\n\nWhen he came to power in June 2012 after a narrow election victory, Morsi promised to head a government \"for all Egyptians\".\n\nBut critics complained he had failed to deliver during his turbulent year in office. They accused him of allowing Islamists to monopolise the political scene, concentrating power in the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood.\n\nMoreover, they said he had mishandled the economy and failed to deal with the very issues that led to the uprising that brought him to power: calls for rights and social justice.\n\nPublic opposition to Morsi began building in November 2012 when, wishing to ensure that the Islamist-dominated constituent assembly could finish drafting a new constitution, the president issued a decree granting himself far-reaching powers.\n\nAmid increasing unrest, Morsi issued a further decree authorising the armed forces to protect national institutions and polling places until a referendum on a draft constitution was held on 15 December 2012.\n\nCritics said that decree amounted to a form of martial law and clashes between Morsi's opponents and supporters left more than 50 people dead.\n\nMass protests were held to mark the first anniversary of the day Morsi took office, and millions took to the streets across Egypt.\n\nThe military warned Morsi that it would intervene if he did not satisfy the public's demands within 48 hours.\n\nOn the evening of 3 July, the army suspended the constitution and announced the formation of a technocratic interim government ahead of new presidential elections.\n\nMorsi denounced the action as a \"coup\". His arrest was ordered by then armed forces chief - and now president - Abdul Fattah al-Sisi - and he was taken by the army to an undisclosed location, and was not heard from for weeks.\n\nMorsi received the death penalty, which was later overturned\n\nHis supporters took to the streets of Cairo, demanding his release and immediate return to power.\n\nThe army responded by breaking up two protest camps in the capital by force on 14 August and arresting key Brotherhood figures.\n\nAlmost 1,000 people were killed in a crackdown the interim authorities portrayed as a struggle against \"terrorism\".\n\nIn the years that followed Morsi's removal, Egypt witnessed an upsurge of violence by Islamist insurgents, and a brutal crackdown on the Brotherhood movement which was declared a terrorist group.\n\nMorsi disappeared from public view, apart from periodic court appearances. In the meantime, his predecessor Hosni Mubarak was freed from jail - a signal to many that Egypt had not particularly moved on since before the elections which brought Morsi, briefly, to power.\n• None What became of Egypt's Morsi?", "A report by MPs has urged the UK government to end the era of throwaway clothes and poor working conditions in the fashion supply chain.\n\nThe MPs' proposals are designed to force the fashion industry to clean up its act.\n\nThey made 18 recommendations covering environmental and labour practices and want the government to act.\n\nNot only is the fashion industry a source of emissions, but old clothes pile up in landfill.\n\nFibres also flow into the sea when clothes are washed, polluting the marine environment.\n\nA government spokesperson said it was dealing with the impacts of fast fashion - and many measures were already in place.\n\nAmong the proposals from the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC) were:\n\nThe EAC's chair, Labour MP Mary Creagh, said: \"Fashion producers should be forced to clear up the mountains of waste they create.\n\n\"The government is content to tolerate practices that trash the environment and exploit workers despite having just committed to net zero emission targets.\n\n\"It is out of step with the public who are shocked by the fact that we are sending 300,000 tonnes of clothes a year to incineration or landfill.\"\n\nBut ministers cite the Sustainable Clothing Action Plan (SCAP), a voluntary agreement co-ordinated by the waste watchdog WRAP.\n\nThis sets targets for the industry to reduce carbon emissions, water and waste.\n\nThe government also maintains it's better to find outlets for waste textiles rather than simply imposing a landfill ban.\n\nA government spokesperson said: \"It simply isn't true to say we are not accepting the committee's recommendations.\n\n\"In our landmark Resources and Waste Strategy we will take forward measures including developing proposals and consulting on extended producer responsibility (EPR) and higher product standards for textiles.\n\n\"This would make producers responsible for the full cost of managing and disposing of their products after they're no longer useful.\"\n\nTolmeia Gregory blogs about ethical fashion under the name TollyDollyPosh.\n\nGo vintage: \"Do things like shopping second-hand and vintage, going to your local charity shop.

Now some MPs say the courts may be denying the human rights of these children.\n\nKatie was 11 when her mother was sent to prison, and she never even got the chance to say goodbye.\n\n\"I felt like I had been punished when my mum was sent to prison. I wasn't able to talk to her and I hadn't done anything wrong.\"\n\nHer mother, Anna, had no time to make childcare arrangements before spending four months in prison for fraud offences.\n\nIn 95% of cases where women are imprisoned, children have to move out of the family home. Research suggests the separation and upheaval has a lasting impact.\n\n\"I remember feeling very lost. I was angry at the fact that I couldn't see her a lot,\" Katie says. \"So I used to cry at school all the time. But no one knew what happened.\"\n\nEven after they were reunited, Katie says she had nightmares about losing her mother again. Anna says Katie clung anxiously to her. \"Even now, all these years on I struggle to move anywhere without her checking I'm there,\" says Anna.\n\nWith women more likely to be the sole carers of children, they face a \"double punishment\" in the court system, says Dr Shona Minson from the Centre for Criminology at the University of Oxford.\n\nMany women are afraid to reveal in court that they are mothers because they think they will be judged more severely, she says.\n\nIn many cases, grandparents care for the child during the mother's sentence, Dr Minson says. But unlike foster care placements, they usually receive no support from the state.\n\n\"What is really important is that the state recognizes a responsibility for those children, whoever's fault it is,\" she says.\n\nUnlike the family court system, the criminal courts are not expected to prioritise the welfare of children, although there are some protections under human rights law.\n\nThat is the focus of an inquiry by Parliament's Joint Committee on Human Rights, chaired by the Labour MP Harriet Harman.\n\nShe says when a mother is imprisoned, their children's education suffers, they develop a fear of the authorities and some family relationships never recover.\n\n\"When you've got the terrible damage inflicted by something the state is doing to an innocent child, you really should have to justify that,\" she says.\n\nThe committee is conducting an investigation of the right to family life for children of imprisoned mothers, examining whether planned government reforms go far enough.\n\nCurrent guidelines to take into account the impact on dependent children are inconsistently applied and inadequate, Ms Harman says.\n\nInstead, the government should legislate so \"the interests of the child are paramount\" in criminal sentencing, she says.\n\nWomen are more likely to be imprisoned for non-violent offences and more likely to receive short sentences of 6 months or less. Ministers have acknowledged that these sentences are less effective than community service.\n\nBut Lord Woolf, the former Lord Chief Justice, says judges may be forced to make sentencing decisions without all the information they need. \"The probation service is stressed. So many services are stressed,\" he says.\n\nPre-sentence reports by probation officers, which can include details of dependent children, have declined in use in the last ten years, with a recent report finding they were completed in less than a quarter of cases.\n\nJustice Secretary David Gauke says he wants to reduce the number of women being given short sentences for non-violent offences because \"lives are set back and in particular the lives of their children are set back\".\n\nBut he says the biggest challenge is in finding effective alternatives to prison, when many men and women receiving short jail sentences are \"prolific minor offenders\" for whom \"community sentences aren't working\".\n\nOne mother, Rose, experienced first hand how inconsistent the courts can be in sentencing. At her initial trial for drug offences, she was given a suspended sentence after a detailed consideration of the impact on her children.\n\n\"He reduced the sentence by around 30% for my children, because I was the sole carer and they would struggle,\" she says.\n\nBut in the court of appeal, where her sentence was overturned, she believed her motherhood counted against her. She spent 12 months in prison.\n\n\"When the prosecution was talking about the case, the first thing mentioned was that I was a mother of two. That was the killer for me - that was the most shameful moment,\" she says.\n\n\"I'm a mother and how dare I do such a thing and not think about my children?\"\n\nShe was sent to prison with this message from the judge: \"While impact on children is important, parenthood cannot be used as a trump card to avoid jail.\"\n\nNames have been changed to protect the identities of families.", "The BBC has been given rare access to the vast system of highly secure facilities thought to be holding more than a million Muslims in China’s western region of Xinjiang.\n\nAuthorities there insist they are just training schools.

Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nSo far, Iran has in response pursued a policy of strategic patience. But if it was behind Thursday's attacks, what we may be seeing is the end of that policy.\n\nThe strategic patience may have run out.\n\nIran clearly changed tack last month after the US suspended sanctions waivers which had allowed certain countries to buy oil from Iran - significantly accelerating the Trump administration's goal of driving down Iran's exports to zero.\n\nIran's response was to scale back its commitments under the nuclear deal and to announce that, if Iran could not export its oil, no other country would be allowed to export theirs.\n\nAbout 30% of the world's seaborne oil transports travel through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic sea passage in the Gulf, on Iran's south coast.\n\nIran has made threats in relation to the strait before - but never acted on them.\n\nEven back in 2012, when the EU imposed an oil embargo against Tehran as part of a broader sanction regime adopted against the country because of the nuclear impasse, Tehran refrained from closing the passage.\n\nBut the re-imposition of sanctions recently by the US has significantly ratcheted up the pressure on Iran, pressure that would go some way to explaining why it might seek to threaten the international oil trade, while its own oil sits bounded by its borders.\n\nThe risk of such a strategic move is significant - the fallout is potential military escalation with the US and its allies in the region.\n\nIt is not a gamble that would have been made quickly or lightly.\n\nIt would have been taken by consensus by all the main heads of the different Iranian political institutions, with Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards (IRGC) playing a significant part given their influence over all regional dossiers, and the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, having the final say over all matters of security and international affairs.\n\nIf Iran is indeed behind these attacks, it would demonstrate that the country's key decision makers feel the risk of military escalation is one worth taking because of the lack of alternative options.\n\nIran may suspect that the risk is lower than it first seems, because Mr Trump does not want a war.\n\nRecent statements by the US president suggested that despite his bellicosity, he is open for talks with Iran without pre-conditions.\n\nThe Iranians will also be mindful however that Mr Trump's National Security Adviser John Bolton, a long-time critic of Iran, has openly called for the US to confront Iran.\n\nIf strategic patience is in fact at an end, Iran may feel that only by displaying the range and scale of its potential destabilising activities - including disruption of the international oil trade it has been barred from - can it increase its leverage with the US, and pull itself out from under the punishing sanctions its old foe has imposed.\n\nDr Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi is a Research Fellow, Middle East Security, at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies", "Patisserie Valerie was in such dire straits that managers had ordered puff pastry be made from margarine rather than butter as a cost-cutting measure, its new owners have revealed.\n\nCauseway Capital bought the chain after it fell into administration following the discovery of a multi million-pound hole in its accounts.\n\nThey plan to invest in the remaining 96 shops and boost online sales.\n\nCauseway also plans to revamp the menu and provide new uniforms for staff.\n\n\"We will take every single recipe apart and put it back together,\" said Matt Scaife from Causeway.\n\nWhen his firm took over, there was \"underinvestment in the business,\" he said.\n\n\"A lot of things had been pulled out, investment in training and people, and most importantly the recipes.\"\n\nBut he was heartened by the approach of the staff.\n\nWhen his team took over he found \"quite a lot of optimism\".\n\n\"There's a huge amount of passion in the business.\"\n\nThe firm has a tool to customise cakes for special occasions which he hopes will help increase sales.\n\nUnder its previous owners the business struggled to cope with competition in an industry which typically has thin profit margins.\n\nFrom 3 July, the firm will start to roll out new menus, a new logo and a new, blue uniform for staff.\n\nMr Scaife hopes high-end confectionery will appeal to customers planning for special occasions.\n\n\"If you are meeting your mum you might take her somewhere more special and you might go to Patisserie Valerie,\" he said.\n\nHis firm wants to avoid the mistakes of previous owners by investing to keep the chain exciting.

There's evidence this can happen in response to low temperatures, low nutrient levels and other conditions associated with high elevations.\n\nBut people could have deliberately bred plants with higher levels of THC than wild varieties.\n\nIt's the earliest clear evidence of cannabis being used for its psychoactive properties.

And having parents and guardians more involved when appropriate is good sense, and can only help, including helping save lives,\" said Sir Anthony.\n\nLast month, Prime Minister Theresa May welcomed a report from Philip Augar calling for a cut in tuition fees in England - saying the maximum should be reduced from £9,250 to £7,500 per year.\n\nThe survey showed that for the 29% of students who thought they were getting \"poor\" or \"very poor\" value for money, the biggest factor was the level of fees.\n\nThe proportion saying they were getting \"good\" or \"very good\" value had risen - but only to 41%.\n\nChris Skidmore, the universities minister, said that if fees were reduced as the Augar review recommended, then there would need to be \"top-up\" funding for universities to replace the lost income.\n\nSpeaking at the Hepi conference, he said that improving funding for further education should not be at the expense of higher education, saying \"you can't rob Peter to pay Paul\".\n\nHe argued that there should be more students going to university rather than less - and he reiterated his opposition to setting a minimum grade threshold, such as requiring students to get a least three D grades at A-level.\n\nMr Skidmore said this would be an unfair block on those who did not have the opportunity to get good A-levels at school, but who \"flourished later on in life\".\n\nThe student satisfaction survey showed that within the UK, students in Scotland, where there are no fees for Scottish students, were much more likely to think they had good value, compared with those in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.\n\nThe most common driving factor for those with positive views was the quality of teaching - and the report suggested improving teaching was the way to increase perceptions of good value.\n\nBut the survey showed the average number of \"contact hours\", where students are directly taught in class, had not increased significantly - from 13.4 hours per week in 2015 to 13.9 hours this year.\n\nMr Hillman said the survey showed \"students want to be stretched, they want clearer feedback and they want more support for mental health challenges\".", "Nick Knowles said he now puts his phone in the boot to avoid the \"temptation\" of using it\n\nDIY SOS host Nick Knowles has been banned from driving for six months and fined nearly £1,500 for speeding and using a mobile phone at the wheel.\n\nKnowles, 56, previously admitted the two driving offences and was sentenced at Cheltenham Magistrates' Court.\n\nHe was caught driving at 85mph in a 70mph zone in a Range Rover and using his phone on 28 January.\n\nKnowles told the court he had a hands-free kit in his car but was holding his mobile due to a \"dodgy power lead\".\n\nPresiding justice Andrew Hill told the former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! contestant the ban would be enforced as it would not cause him \"exceptional hardship\".\n\nMr Hill said: \"From this moment in time, you are not able to drive any motor vehicle in any public place.\"\n\nKnowles, of Cirencester, Gloucestershire, asked: \"I can drive home, right?\" to which Mr Hill replied: \"No.\"\n\nThe DIY SOS host will not be able to drive for six months\n\nThe court heard he was caught speeding on the A417 Brockworth Bypass by a mobile camera at 10:55 GMT.\n\nAs Knowles' vehicle approached the camera, its operator could see he had \"his left hand held up to his face\" and \"continued to do so until he was 20 metres from the enforcement van\".\n\nKnowles, representing himself, said he had chosen to \"dismiss\" legal advice to attempt to \"get by on a technicality\".\n\nHe added: \"I was travelling faster than I should have done...I had fallen into the habit of looking at texts.

The discipline his lieutenants are trying to instil is holding at this stage.\n\nBut his success today leaves him vulnerable.\n\nFrontrunner status is a precious commodity. It makes him the target for all of the others left in the race, for all of them to pitch themselves to those many MPs who feel strongly that he is wrong for the job.\n\nSo members of his campaign team tell me their motto is simple - do not die.

It's fluid, and there is, as I tediously probably always say, a long way to go.\n\nThere are two things we can be absolutely sure of, tonight Boris Johnson is looking hard to beat.

Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nConservative MPs may have whittled the contenders in the leadership race down to the final two - but it will not be politicians who will decide who gets to be the next prime minister.\n\nInstead it will be the party's grassroots members who will decide which of Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson gets to succeed Theresa May.\n\nThey will do so in a postal ballot, with the winner announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nIn other words, it is members of the public - those who pay £25 a year to join the Conservative Party - who get the final say on who leads the country.\n\nThere will not be a general election because the party is already in power.\n\nSo, who are the Conservative Party's members and what do they think on key issues, not least, of course, Brexit?\n\nThe Conservative Party membership is currently thought to be around 160,000 - a rise of more than 30,000 in the past 12 months.\n\nThe last time official figures were released was in March 2018, when they put the figure at 124,000.\n\nThat is way down on the peak of nearly 3 million that the party boasted in the early 1950s.\n\nThe Tories have far fewer members than the Labour Party.\n\nEven if we assume that Labour's membership has fallen from the late 2017 peak of more than 550,000, it still has a huge advantage over the Conservatives when it comes to campaigning on the ground.\n\nRight now, however, none of that matters as much as the fact that those 160,000 or so rank-and-file members of the Conservative Party have a crucial role.\n\nThey are going to be choosing the next prime minister of a country of over 65 million people - something which has never happened before.\n\nFrom studies of the 124,000 members that the party had in 2018, we know quite a lot about who they are and their beliefs.\n\nMost members of most parties in the UK are pretty middle-class.\n\nBut Conservative Party members are the most middle-class of all: some 86% of them fall into the ABC1 category used by market researchers to describe the top social grade.\n\nAround a quarter of them are, or were, self-employed and nearly half of them work, or used to, in the private sector.\n\nNearly four out of 10 put their annual income at over £30,000, and one in 20 put it at over £100,000. As such, Tory members are considerably better-off than most voters and, indeed, the members of other parties.\n\nOn the other hand, the fact that 97% of Conservative Party members are white doesn't do much to distinguish them from their counterparts in other parties.\n\nIt does inevitably mean, however, that ethnic minorities, who make up well over 10% of British people, are heavily under-represented in the Tory rank and file.\n\nSo, too, are women. Other parties - notably Labour and the Greens, but also the SNP - now come close to gender balance, but seven out of 10 Conservative members are male.\n\nTory members are also older than the members of most other parties. True, their average age may \"only\" be 57, but this disguises the fact that four out of 10 are over 65.\n\nThey are concentrated in the southern half of England. Nearly 60% of Tory members live in London, the east, south-east and south-west.\n\nSo much for demography and geography. What about ideology?\n\nWell, not surprisingly, Tory Party members are more right-wing than the population as a whole.\n\nOn a scale where zero represents very left-wing and 10 very right-wing, the average voter places themselves at the centre point. The average Conservative Party member places themselves at 7.6.\n\nThree-quarters of them believe, for instance, that young people today don't have enough respect for traditional values. Nearly six out of 10 support the death penalty.\n\nThey are also conventionally right-wing on some aspects of economic policy.\n\nFor example, only 15% of them believe that government should redistribute income from the better-off to those who are less well-off.\n\nBut on other issues they hold views that may be more unexpected.\n\nA third of Tory rank-and-file members believe that ordinary working people do not get their fair share of the nation's wealth and that there is one law for the rich and one for the poor.\n\nAbout half believe that big business takes advantage of ordinary people.\n\nInterestingly, they have also cooled on austerity. In the summer of 2015, some 55% said government spending cuts hadn't gone far enough, but two years later that had fallen to 28%.\n\nWhat Tory members haven't cooled on, however, is Brexit.\n\nIndeed, since we started tracking them in 2015, they've hardened their position.\n\nIt is clear that they are not supporters of the deal negotiated by Theresa May.\n\nIn fact, it is now the case that fully two-thirds of them back a no-deal Brexit - an outcome supported by only a quarter of voters as a whole.\n\nNor are they in the least bit keen on the idea of letting the public have another say on the UK's EU membership.\n\nSome 84% of them oppose the idea of a new referendum on the issue.\n\nIn short, the grassroots aren't simply sceptical on Europe; they can't wait to leave, whatever that might take.\n\nFurthermore, a breakdown of YouGov polling data suggests that the 30,000 or so members who have joined in the past year are even more likely to be pro-Brexit.\n\nThis, then, is the Conservative Party electorate.\n\nAnd those MPs hoping to succeed Mrs May will need to pitch their promises accordingly.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from experts working for an outside organisation.\n\nTim Bale is Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.", "The UK is one of the worst places in Europe for paid parental leave and affordable quality childcare, the UN's children's charity has said.\n\nResearchers for Unicef ranked 31 countries on their length of maternity and paternity leave and the proportions of pre-school children above and below the age of three in childcare.\n\nThe only European countries below the UK were Cyprus, Greece and Switzerland.\n\nUK parents were among the most likely to blame cost for not using childcare.\n\nUnicef policy and advocacy head Liam Sollis said the research highlighted how working parents in the UK faced major challenges balancing work and their care-giving responsibilities.\n\nSweden, Norway and Iceland were the highest ranked countries.\n\nUnicef said family-friendly policies strengthened the bond between parents and their children, which was key to the development of families and society.\n\nAnd it said new parents should be offered six months' paid leave and affordable quality childcare.\n\nIt also offers two weeks' statutory paternity leave at £149 a week.\n\nSweden and Norway, at the top of the league for family friendliness overall, pay new mothers the equivalent of 35 and 45 weeks fully paid, while Estonia offers 85 weeks.\n\nComparisons on childcare reveal the majority of pre-school children aged three and older attend education and care centres across the 31 European countries for which comparable statistics are available.\n\nThis ranges from 51% in Croatia to 99% in Belgium and Iceland. In the UK, the take-up rate is 73%.\n\nIn every country, children under the age of three are much less likely to attend such centres than their older peers.\n\nFewer than one in 10 children under the age of three do so in the Czech Republic, Greece, Poland and Slovakia.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Ruth Davidson said the SNP could negotiate for a new referendum agreement if they won an outright majority at Holyrood\n\nThe UK government should only agree to a new Scottish independence referendum if the SNP wins a majority in the next election, Ruth Davidson has claimed.\n\nFirst Minister Nicola Sturgeon insists she has a mandate for a new vote on independence, and says it would be wrong for UK ministers to block one.\n\nBut the Scottish Conservative leader said only an \"outright majority\" for the SNP at Holyrood would be a mandate.\n\nAll 10 Tory leadership candidates have voiced opposition to a new referendum.\n\nMs Sturgeon has called this position \"unsustainable\", and wants a new vote to be held in the second half of 2020.\n\nThe SNP leader wants a deal with the UK government, similar to that agreed for the 2014 referendum, before she calls a fresh vote.\n\nMs Davidson agreed that this approach was the \"gold standard\", but argued that Ms Sturgeon does not currently have a mandate to negotiate such an agreement.\n\nThe SNP's manifesto for the 2016 Holyrood election stipulated that a new referendum could be held if there was either \"clear and sustained evidence\" that a majority of Scots wanted independence, or a \"significant and material change in circumstances\", like Scotland being taken out of the EU against its will.\n\nIn light of this, Ms Sturgeon stepped up planning for a vote after the EU referendum, which saw 62% of Scottish voters back Remain while the UK as a whole voted to Leave.\n\nHowever, Ms Davidson argued that the SNP had lost its majority in the 2016 election, and also had lost votes and seats in the 2017 general election.\n\nThe SNP's 2016 manifesto called for a new referendum in the event of a \"significant and material\" change in circumstances\n\nShe told BBC Scotland: \"The last time the SNP went to form the Scottish government, they had their majority taken away from them. They then asked for a second referendum, and lost half a million votes at a snap general election and lost 21 seats across the country.\n\n\"They're currently polling about 37%, that's what they got at the European election. Don't get me wrong, that's a good result for any party, but it's not a majority. And Nicola Sturgeon herself has said she only has the right to hold another referendum if a majority of Scots want it.\"\n\nPressed on what would give Ms Sturgeon a mandate for a new vote - dubbed indyref2 - Ms Davidson said that only \"another majority in a Holyrood election\" would be enough.\n\nShe said: \"If she puts it in a manifesto that she's going to hold another referendum and she wins a majority outright, then she can negotiate with the UK government in the same way as happened last time.\n\n\"But she doesn't get to just, in the middle of a parliament where she's lost her majority, get to stick her hand up and say I'm going to re-run this referendum again and again until I get the result I want.\"\n\nThe UK and Scottish governments - led by David Cameron and Alex Salmond - signed an agreement for the 2014 referendum\n\nMs Sturgeon has put forward framework legislation which could pave the way to indyref2 at Holyrood, but has held off from formally requesting a transfer of powers from Westminster to hold it.\n\nShe has indicated that she is waiting for the Conservative leadership contest to run its course, as well as more clarity about the outcome of Brexit.\n\nSpeaking during a visit to Brussels on Tuesday, Ms Sturgeon said: \"We don't even know who the prime minister is going to be. There is no UK government worthy of the name right now.\n\n\"So I've made the decision that in the Scottish government and the Scottish parliament we will do the bits of the process that we are able to do, get on with that, and we'll come to the issue of the transfer of power at an appropriate point.\n\n\"But the question really should be put to the UK government. It's one thing to oppose independence, it's a completely different thing to stand in the way of Scotland having the right to choose. That is not, in my view, a position that is sustainable.\"\n\nAsked if she would have to win another election in order to break the current impasse , Ms Sturgeon told BBC Scotland: \"I don't accept that\".\n\nShe added: \"I have a mandate won at the 2016 election to offer the people of Scotland a choice in the very circumstances we're in now.\n\n\"I don't think anyone should accept that a UK government has the right to ignore and undermine and negate a democratic mandate of the Scottish government. I think any democrat should challenge that position.\"\n• None Leadsom would 'never say never' to indyref2\n• None Will indyref2 happen before May 2021?", "Strikes will be held on 26 June, 22 July and 6 August\n\nWorkers at the Scottish Qualifications Authority are to stage three one-day strikes, including on exam results day.\n\nThe Unite union had agreed to suspend action amid a restructuring dispute.\n\nBut it has now confirmed walkouts on 26 June and 22 July, plus an overtime ban in the week leading up to results day on 6 August.\n\nThe union says staff were left in unsuitable roles and a redundancies agreement was breached.

This is a real risk.\n\nA strike on results day itself would be largely symbolic in that respect.\n\nThe question is whether the strikes beforehand and the work to rule in the week leading up to the results cause some delays or backlogs.\n\nThe results are collated and ready a few days before candidates receive them.

Now to add insult to injury, staff may be expected to pick up additional work.\n\n\"Let's be crystal clear here - this dispute has been created, directed and exacerbated at every turn by SQA mismanagement and incompetence of the highest order.\n\n\"Unless immediate action is taken to address our members' legitimate concerns, then more days of action will be inevitable.\"\n\nAn SQA spokesman said: \"We are committed to working in partnership with the Unite union and have made significant progress on the process that is undertaken in a restructure.\n\n\"We are also committed to listen to, and address, the important issues that have been raised by its members.

Tellers read out the result with a win for the government by 309 votes to 298\n\nMPs have rejected a Labour-led effort to take control of Parliament's timetable, blocking the latest attempt to stop a no-deal Brexit.\n\nThe Commons opposed the move by 309 votes to 298.\n\nIf passed, it would have given opponents of a no-deal Brexit the chance to table legislation to thwart the UK leaving without any agreement on the 31 October deadline.\n\nThe result of the vote was greeted with cheers from the Tory benches.\n\nBut Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn responded by shouting \"you won't be cheering in September\".\n\nTen Tory MPs, mostly pro-Europeans, rebelled against the government by backing Labour's motion. Conversely, eight Labour MPs - mostly Eurosceptics or MPs in constituencies which voted Leave at the referendum - defied party instructions and voted against it.\n\nA key factor for the government was the support of Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionists, who have voted against Theresa May during previous Brexit votes.\n\nNo deal would mean the UK leaving the EU without any agreement about the \"divorce\" process.\n\nOvernight, the country would be out of the single market, customs union and institutions such as the European Court of Justice and Europol.\n\nThere are fears about widespread disruption in such an event - to trade, travel and the functioning of the Irish border, in particular.\n\nThe opposition said the Commons defeat was disappointing, but it still believed there was a majority in the Commons against a no deal and it remained \"determined to win this fight\".\n\n\"There will be other procedural mechanisms we can use,\" shadow Brexit Secretary Sir Keir Starmer said. \"We are already looking at what those other opportunities will be.\"\n\nNo 10 said giving MPs a \"blank cheque\" to dictate Brexit policy would have set a troubling precedent.\n\nThe UK was originally supposed to leave the EU on 29 March.\n\nBut the EU decided on a seven-month extension after MPs rejected the terms of withdrawal on three occasions.\n\nOpponents of a no-deal exit are concerned that Theresa May's successor as prime minister could seek to take the UK out of the EU without parliamentary approval for such an outcome.\n\nTory leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson and several of his rivals have said the UK must leave the EU by the revised date, whether a deal is passed or not.\n\nWednesday's motion - supported by the Lib Dems, the SNP and Plaid Cymru, as well as some Conservatives, would not, by itself, have ruled out a no deal.\n\nHowever, its supporters hoped to start a process on 25 June which could culminate with Parliament blocking the UK leaving without an agreement - in effect, tying the next prime minister's hands.\n\nBacking the motion, Conservative ex-minister Sir Oliver Letwin said the case for ensuring Parliament had a \"decisive vote\" on the next PM's Brexit plan ahead of the 31 October deadline transcended party politics.\n\nGiven that leaving without a deal remains the default legal position, he said it was \"perfectly possible\" for the next PM to usher in a no-deal exit by \"simply doing nothing\" at all.\n\nTory Remain supporter and former Attorney General Dominic Grieve said the motion was the \"last sensible opportunity\" to stop no deal.\n\nHe added that in the future, if necessary, he would support efforts to bring down a Conservative government in a vote of no confidence if it was the only way to block such an outcome.\n\nBut veteran Eurosceptic Conservative Sir Bill Cash said it was a \"phantom motion\" which paved the way for \"government by Parliament\".\n\n\"It just simply opens the door for any bill of any kind to take precedence over government business,\" he told by MPs. \"It is inconceivable as a matter of constitutional convention.\"\n\nAfter the defeat, the deputy leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson, accused the Conservatives of \"putting party loyalty ahead of national interest\".\n\nThis is not the first time that MPs have attempted to seize control of the Commons order paper in order to shift government policy on Brexit.\n\nMPs voted in March to oblige Mrs May to seek a Brexit delay from the EU.\n\nBut efforts by Sir Oliver and others to come up with an alternative Brexit plan failed in April after MPs rejected all the options in a series of indicative votes.", "The government is consulting on plans to add folic acid to flour in the UK to help prevent birth defects such as spina bifida.\n\nPregnant women are already advised to take folic acid, but many do not.\n\nIt is estimated fortifying flour with folic acid could prevent up to 200 birth defects a year.\n\nThe charity Shine, which has campaigned for the move for 25 years, said it hoped it would not be another 25 before it happened.\n\nWomen are advised to take 400 micrograms of folic acid a day for at least a month before conception and up to the 12th week of pregnancy.\n\nBut about half of pregnancies are unplanned, and women are not always aware they should take the supplement - or forget to.\n\nNeural tube defects, such as spina bifida (abnormal development of the spine) and anencephaly, which affects the brain, affect about 1,000 pregnancies per year in the UK.\n\nOver 40% of cases are fatal. Most babies who survive will need continuing care.\n\nMandatory fortification would mean everybody who ate foods such as bread would get more folic acid, but scientists have advised the government the recommended level is safe.\n\n\"Women from the poorest areas are less likely to take folic acid supplements and it is right that we do all we can to protect the most vulnerable in society,\" Public Health Minister Seema Kennedy said.\n\n\"We all want to give our children the best start in life and a birth defect diagnosis is devastating for parents.\n\n\"The simple measure of adding folic acid to flour would help spare hundreds of families from such a life-changing event.\"\n\nShine chief executive Kate Steele said: \"Had it been introduced all those [25] years ago, when the government's own scientific advisory committee on nutrition made the recommendation, it is estimated that it could have saved several thousands of UK pregnancies from being affected by spina bifida or anencephaly.\n\n\"However, we are not looking a gift horse in the mouth and are delighted that the government has launched this consultation and all we hope is that it will not take another 25 years to make mandatory fortification with folic acid a reality.\"\n\nMore than 60 countries already add folic acid to flour.

Defending champion Geraint Thomas will be outright leader at this year's Tour and will have a high-class deputy in Egan Bernal, who was due to lead the team at the Giro d'Italia but broke his collarbone in a training crash.\n\nAfter that, the team have already sought to secure their future by signing the best young stage racing prospects in Colombian Bernal, compatriot Ivan Sosa, Russia's Pavel Sivakov and Britain's Tao Geoghegan Hart. They are also reportedly keen on this year's Giro winner Richard Carapaz.\n\nEven if Froome never challenges for one again, Team Ineos look well placed to continue their success in Grand Tours.", "Seventy-two people died when the blaze broke out in the 24-storey block of flats in North Kensington just before 01:00 BST on 14 June 2017\n\nGrenfell Tower campaigners have urged the next prime minister to be \"on the right side of history\" ahead of the second anniversary of the fire.\n\nTheresa May's successor must prioritise the tragedy, Grenfell United said.\n\nFriday will mark two years since 72 people died when a blaze broke out in the 24-storey block of flats in North Kensington, west London.\n\nKarim Mussilhy, vice chair of the group, warned the next prime minister \"not to forget about Grenfell\".\n\n\"It is important to keep up the momentum because there are many other Grenfell Towers out there\", he said.\n\nGrenfell United is campaigning for a social housing regulator that will ensure tenants are listened to when they raise concerns\n\nThe 33-year-old father of two said: \"We don't know who it's going to be and, quite frankly, it doesn't matter, because the pressure will continuously be applied by us, and hopefully we can have a similar if not better relationship with the next person.\"\n\nAfter 1,059 days in charge, Theresa May stepped down as Conservative Party leader on Friday after she failed to deliver a successful Brexit strategy.\n\nShe will remain prime minister until a replacement is appointed - 10 candidates have launched their leadership bids this week.\n\nMr Mussilhy, who lost his uncle in the fire, said the next leader would \"have an opportunity to make changes that will echo throughout generations\".\n\nGrenfell United is campaigning for a social housing regulator that will ensure tenants are listened to when they raise concerns, and for all dangerous materials including cladding to be banned and removed from homes.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\n\"It's quite insulting at times to see any time Grenfell is spoken about in Parliament there's no more than six or seven MPs in the room\", Mr Mussilhy said.\n\n\"And it goes to show the mentality that people have towards this, it just feels like people are waiting for this just to die down and eventually go away, but it's not.\"\n\nThe Conservative-run Kensington and Chelsea Council also called on the future PM to honour promises or \"risk losing what little trust there is\".\n\nCouncil leader Elizabeth Campbell said: \"The government has made many commitments to the families from the tower, the community around the tower, and to people right across London - so no matter who the next PM is, they need to honour those commitments or risk losing what very little trust there is.\"", "The Commonwealth Secretariat, run by Lady Scotland, is the organisation's main intergovernmental agency, facilitating cooperation among member governments\n\nThe Commonwealth Secretariat, the body that manages the international organisation in London, is in \"urgent need\" of reform, according to a leaked internal report obtained by the BBC.\n\nIt says there are \"deep concerns\" about the governance structures of the secretariat which \"lacks clarity\" in its priorities and needs to be \"more transparent and accountable\". It adds there is a \"serious and urgent need\" to stabilise the body's funding.\n\nThe secretariat is the central administrative hub for the Commonwealth which is made up of 53 countries - most of them former British colonies - which encompass almost a third of the world's population.\n\nIt is currently led by the Commonwealth secretary-general, the former Labour minister Baroness Scotland.\n\nA separate survey of employees at the secretariat - also seen by the BBC - suggested there were \"strong indicators of low morale\" with \"high levels of dissatisfaction with opportunities for career progression\".\n\nThe BBC has also learned that a bitter dispute has broken out between the secretariat and other Commonwealth bodies over office space in London which could leave the organisation responsible for the Commonwealth Games having to find a new headquarters.\n\nIn the wake of the concerns, the Commonwealth's 52 high commissioners in London plus one senior British diplomat have drawn up new rules to try to improve the accountability of the secretariat.\n\nThese rules also make clear that Lady Scotland could be challenged if she tries to stay on in post after her first term of office runs out next year. The new rules state explicitly: \"Re-appointment of a secretary-general for a second term is not automatic.\"\n\nIt is rare for Commonwealth secretaries-general to be challenged after their first term. Only six people have held the post since it was created in 1965 and most were reappointed unopposed. The only significant exception was Don McKinnon who was unsuccessfully challenged in 2003 by a Sri Lankan candidate representing southern African nations angered over the suspension of Zimbabwe from the Commonwealth.\n\nThe high commissioners - who make up the Commonwealth's Board of Governors - have also ordered an internal audit of procurement spending decisions by the secretariat since 2016 when Lady Scotland took up her post amid concerns that procedures may not have been followed correctly.\n\nSome diplomats have also argued for an independent inquiry into the financial and reputational implications of two recent employment tribunals - one involving Lady Scotland's deputy - that the secretariat lost and could result in legal bills of more than £1m.\n\nA spokesman for the secretariat said Lady Scotland was making the organisation more \"dynamic and integrated\" and the new rules had not yet been agreed by Commonwealth heads of government.\n\nWhen those heads of government elected Lady Scotland in 2015, they instructed her to review the way the secretariat was being run. Three years later, she established a so-called 'high level group' of mostly former Commonwealth foreign ministers whose report last autumn was never published.\n\nIt concluded there was \"an urgent need\" for the governance structure of the secretariat to be reformed.\n\nIt said: \"There is also an immediate need for redressing the lack of clarity in policy and priorities; for the secretariat to be more transparent and accountable to stakeholders.\"\n\nThere were \"deep concerns about the adequacy of the current governance structures\" and \"there is a serious and urgent need to place the funding of the secretariat on a more stable and predictable footing\".\n\nIn recent years, some member states have been less willing to give the organisation money. Its core budget has now sunk to just £32m, down from £52m in 2012/13.\n\nSuch are the financial pressures that the secretariat has decided to break the lease on a building it rents in Pall Mall called \"Commonwealth House\" that was opened by the Queen only in 2016.\n\nStaff working for the secretariat in the building are being moved across the road to its Marlborough House headquarters but other affiliated organisations have been told - much to their anger - they will have to look for premises elsewhere.\n\nThey include the Commonwealth Games Federation, the Royal Commonwealth Society, the Commonwealth Local Government Forum and the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council.\n\nCommonwealth diplomats are so concerned they have ordered the secretariat to provide them with floor maps of Marlborough House so they can establish whether or not there is enough space for the accredited bodies. One source said: \"She is splitting the Commonwealth.\"\n\nLady Scotland's supporters insist she is making progress reforming a dysfunctional secretariat and has ruffled feathers by making job cuts. Since 2016, the secretariat has cut staff from 295 to 223.\n\nShe told The Economist in April she had been \"vilified\" for shaking things up.\n\nThis was illustrated by the Commonwealth Secretariat Staff Association which conducted a survey of its members last November and found there were \"strong indicators of low morale\".\n\nIt suggested that a large proportion of employees had looked for work elsewhere and \"66% of respondents would not recommend a friend to work at the secretariat\".\n\nDiplomats say Lady Scotland, who was attorney general under Gordon Brown, has already begun campaigning unofficially to secure a second four-year term in 2020 and has argued privately there was a reasonable expectation she should be reappointed unopposed.\n\nBut the 53 high commissioners in London agreed new rules in March confirming the unwritten convention that secretaries-general can be challenged when their first term of office ends.\n\nThey also tighten up the accountability and oversight of the secretariat, including regular assessments of the secretary general's performance.\n\nThe new rules have yet to be signed off by Commonwealth foreign ministers and eight have already rallied to Lady Scotland's cause, formally questioning the new provisions and whether they should apply to the current secretary-general.\n\nThe countries that objected to the new rules are thought to include the Seychelles, Nigeria, St Lucia, Barbados, Dominica, St Kitts and Nevis and Belize.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt has now written to those eight countries to try to address their concerns. The issue is expected to come to a head at a meeting of Commonwealth foreign ministers in London on July 10.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt is among those hoping to replace Theresa May as British prime minister\n\nBritain is currently the so-called \"chair in office\" for the Commonwealth, having hosted the last heads of government meeting in London in 2018. Mr Hunt will at some stage have to decide whether or not the UK is going to support Lady Scotland's second term. It is understood no final decision has been made.\n\nDespite concerns about the leadership of the secretariat in some Commonwealth capitals, no strong alternative candidate has yet emerged. But some sources suggest informal discussions have begun to draw up a list of potential names.\n\nA Foreign Office spokesman said: \"We are working with the secretary-general and fellow Commonwealth members to enhance the effectiveness of the secretariat. This is essential to fulfil the commission of heads of government at their meeting in Malta in 2015, and reiterated at their meeting in London last year.\"\n\nA spokesman for the Commonwealth Secretariat said: \"The High-Level Group reports to Commonwealth heads of government and the latter have not yet considered this report, so it is not appropriate for the secretary-general or secretariat to make comments about its content or its conclusions.\n\n\"Since her assumption of duty, the secretary-general has made changes to the Commonwealth's organisational structure to make it more dynamic and integrated. She is confident that the great majority of staff are hard-working and committed to the Commonwealth. They are producing exemplary results.\"\n\nThe spokesman added: \"The secretary-general is focused on delivering the mandate given to her by the 53 Commonwealth heads of government. During her tenure, the secretariat has received numerous commendations from member governments for its work.\n\n\"For example, here is a recent quote from the President of Seychelles, Danny Faure: 'I believe that the Commonwealth Secretariat is a believer of the Small Island Developing States and if today within the international forum, there is recognition of one's small states, it is because the Commonwealth Secretariat has played an important role.\n\n\"It is the responsibility of the 53 heads of government to appoint (and re-appoint) the Secretary-General. To date, no new rules for appointment of the Secretary-General have been agreed by the 53 heads of government.\"\n\nThe spokesman said it would not be appropriate for the secretariat to comment on the proceedings of confidential Board of Governors' meetings: \"But please note that the secretariat operates a multi-layered system of checks, balances and audits that work independently from the secretary-general, including an audit committee that reports directly to the Board of Governors.\n\n\"The secretariat is working to mitigate a declining budget from member countries by entering into partnerships with international organisations and foundations.\n\n\"During recent years under the secretary-general's stewardship there has been a significant increase in extra budgetary funding, from £700,000 in 2012 to £3.5m in 2017.\n\n\"As part of the Commonwealth's effort to operate more efficiently, its Board of Governors approved a plan to move all Secretariat staff in Commonwealth House to Marlborough House by the end of 2019.\n\n\"Prior to the establishment of Commonwealth House, the Royal Commonwealth Society and the Commonwealth Games Federation had their own headquarter buildings.\"", "Providers of social care in the UK have told Newsnight they have seen a \"frightening\" decline in the numbers of EU nationals applying for jobs in the sector.\n\nJane Stewart from Peach Nursing said she currently employed just one British carer out of 44.\n\nShe said a drop in EU nationals applying for jobs meant that for the first time in 14 years she was forced to tell people: \"I can't help you.\"\n\nBut the Department for Health and Social Care said the numbers of EU nationals working in the sector had risen since the 2016 Brexit referendum.\n\nThe department also said they “recognise the invaluable contribution of care workers” and they “remain focused on reaching a deal with the EU which benefits the health and care workforce”.\n\nYou can watch Newsnight on BBC Two weekdays at 22:30 or on iPlayer, subscribe to the programme on YouTube and follow it on Twitter.", "Khuram Butt was being investigated by MI5 from 2015\n\nAn investigation into one of the London Bridge attackers was suspended because of an \"unprecedented\" threat level which put pressure on MI5 resources.\n\nA senior MI5 officer told an inquest that the inquiry into Khuram Butt was suspended between March and May 2017.\n\nButt then killed eight people during the attack on 3 June 2017, which he carried out with two other men.\n\nThe court also heard that MI5 got an anonymous tip-off that Butt was \"an extremist\" more than two years before.\n\nButt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22, mowed down pedestrians on London Bridge before launching a knife attack in nearby Borough Market, injuring 48 others.\n\nPolice shot and killed the attackers less than 10 minutes after the violence began.\n\nGiving evidence shielded from public view, the officer - identified as Witness L - said the decision to suspend a number of investigations in 2017 was made amid \"the unprecedented level of threat which we were facing and therefore the pressure on our resources\".\n\nIn March 2017 five people were killed during an attack on Westminster Bridge, and two months later 22 people died during an attack at Manchester Arena.\n\nThe head of policy, strategy and capability in MI5's international counter-terrorism branch went on: \"In my 28 years (in MI5), I cannot recall a time as alarming as this time.\"\n\nThe investigation into Butt had also been suspended for around a month in February 2016 after a series of attacks in mainland Europe.\n\nWitness L said: \"I think it reflects the level of resourcing available.

Such responses could include an increased emphasis on information and cyber operations.\n\nThe SRR is trained in a variety of techniques including physical and technical surveillance, such as planting cameras in insurgent-held territory, eavesdropping and close-proximity hacking.\n\nIt remains up for debate whether this new concept would see the stepping up of a shadow war against proxy forces - serving the interests of countries such as China, Iran and Russia - that could occasionally turn violent.\n\nBritish politicians' appetite for risk is limited and the capture of a party of Special Forces operators and MI6 officers in Libya eight years ago showed the potential for embarrassment that comes with such missions.\n\nYou can watch Newsnight on BBC Two weekdays at 22:30 or on iPlayer, subscribe to the programme on YouTube and follow it on Twitter.", "The entertainer was saved from having a pauper's funeral in Spain\n\nFans, family and friends have said a final farewell to comedian Freddie Starr, whose coffin was engraved with the words \"Return To Sender\".\n\nDozens of mourners turned out for Starr's funeral in Prescot, Merseyside.\n\nAs well as his comedy, he was known for his Elvis Presley impressions.\n\nFittingly, the coffin was carried into the church to the strains of Starr's rendition of Elvis's song Don't, and was applauded as it was carried back out to another Elvis cover, Trouble.\n\n\"Liverpool legend\" was etched on one side of the casket, with \"Return To Sender\" - also the title of an Elvis track - on the other.\n\nBraving the rain outside Prescot Parish Church, many fans wore red jackets, ties, scarves, socks or shoes after a request for mourners to honour Starr's famous red Teddy Boy jacket.

But he was one in a million.\"\n\nFan Delia Cainey, 56, from Gloucestershire, went to the funeral in a T-shirt bearing a photo of Starr below the letters \"RIP\".\n\n\"We just wanted to show that he gave us hours and hours of endless fun in the 70s and 80s,\" she said.\n\n\"A lot of people after the [Operation] Yewtree case had forsaken him.

Absolutely hilarious. His Elvis impersonation, his Adam Faith impersonation - hilarious.\"\n\nThe ceremony lasted less than half an hour, and the hearse was applauded as it arrived at the church and when it departed for a private burial.\n\nStarr grew up in nearby Huyton and is being buried next to his mother.\n\nThe entertainer rose to prominence in the early 1970s, becoming a fixture on TV in the 70s and 80s, and famously featured in The Sun newspaper's \"Freddie Starr ate my hamster\" headline in 1986.\n\nHe later took part in ITV's I'm a Celebrity but left the show after being taken to hospital following a suspected allergic reaction.\n\nHe suffered from ill health and in 2010 had bypass surgery after a heart attack.\n\nFollow us on Facebook, on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts, or on Instagram at bbcnewsents.

The gastropods were living among litter - specifically inside thrown-away plastic bags - in a \"dank wet alley\", surrounded by four-storey buildings.\n\nThe alleyway where the snails were rediscovered\n\nWater dripping from air conditioning units had created an environment where the animals could survive unnoticed.\n\n\"It turned out that the plastic bags were one of the favourite places for these snails to hang out, because of course it retained the moisture the best - and the snails are very vulnerable to drying out,\" said Dr Outerbridge.\n\n\"And when we started picking up these plastic bags and unfolding them - literally they contained hundreds of juveniles and hatchling-sized snails.\"\n\nSome of the hatchlings were taken into captivity for breeding. Their offspring were later sent to Chester Zoo and the Zoological Society of London, where scientists were able to establish colonies.\n\nIt turns out that the snails are prolific breeders in captivity, with thousands of snails bred in a matter of years.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Barry Sheerman asks Theresa May if she will give her successors \"a bit of the medicine that they've given her\".\n\nTheresa May has said she will remain in Parliament as MP for Maidenhead after stepping down as prime minister.\n\nMrs May told the Commons she would sit on the backbenches after she leaves office at the end of July.\n\nHer predecessor, David Cameron, stood down as an MP within months of leaving No 10, while Tony Blair triggered a by-election on the same day as quitting.\n\nBut other prime ministers, most notably Ted Heath, have remained in Parliament for decades after giving up power.\n\nMr Heath hung around in the Commons for 26 years after quitting as Tory leader in 1975, enjoying a famously tense and terse relationship with his successor, Margaret Thatcher.\n\nBoth Sir John Major and Gordon Brown served full parliamentary terms as backbench MPs after their election defeats in 1997 and 2010 respectively.\n\nAnd another former prime minister, Alec Douglas-Home, returned to high office as foreign secretary six years after leaving Downing Street.\n\nMrs May was asked about her future intentions by veteran Labour MP Barry Sheerman during Prime Minister's Questions.\n\nPraising her sense of duty, Mr Sheerman urged her not to \"cut and run\" but instead to stick around in Parliament in order to \"give some of the people who will take over after her a bit of the medicine they have given her\".\n\nTo cheers from the Conservative benches, Mrs May replied: \"I will indeed be staying in the chamber of the House of Commons because I will continue as the member of Parliament for my constituency.\"\n\nShe has represented the Berkshire seat of Maidenhead since 1997.\n\nWhen he gave up his Witney seat in 2016, Mr Cameron said he did not want to get in the way of his successor or be a focal point for arguments over Brexit.\n\nOnce upon a time, prime ministers historically accepted peerages after their retirement and saw out the remainder of their political lives in relative obscurity in the House of Lords.\n\nHowever, this has become far less common in recent decades, with ex-prime ministers remaining more active in public life, combining charitable activities with earning money on the lecture circuit and making increasingly frequent political interventions.", "Residents say Frinstead House does not have sprinklers\n\nCampaigners have projected messages on to high-rises across England saying they are unsafe, ahead of the two-year anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire.\n\nSurvivors group Grenfell United put the messages on buildings in Salford, Newcastle and London.\n\nOne projection says: \"2 years after Grenfell and this building is still covered in dangerous cladding.\"\n\nThe government said it had made £600m of funding available to replace combustible cladding on high-rises.\n\nIt expected the work - on both private and social housing homes - to be completed \"as soon as possible\", it said.\n\nThe message on this Salford block says it has dangerous cladding\n\nIn Newcastle, the projection on to Cruddas Park House, which is a 25 storey block for people over 50, says: \"2 years after Grenfell and the fire doors in this building still don't work\".\n\nNewcastle City Council said it had invested over £9m in fire safety measures across the borough and that \"the safety of customers is our number one priority\".\n\nThe projection on to the NV building in Salford, which has 246 flats, says it is \"still covered in dangerous cladding\" which is not covered by the government's cladding removal fund.\n\nThe developer of the building told the BBC \"an urgent investigation is ongoing\".\n\nAnd the projection in London appears on Frinstead House, a 20-storey block a stone's throw away from Grenfell Tower. It says the block has no sprinklers.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. There are still buildings \"all around the country\" with flammable cladding, campaigner says.\n\nThe Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Council, which took over management of the high-rise in March last year, said its staff had met residents to talk about sprinklers and other fire safety measures.\n\nIt said there was a fire safety programme under way across its borough and it was \"seeking clear guidance and recommendations from central government on fire safety systems\".\n\nGrenfell United said it is calling for tower blocks across the UK to be \"made safe, and for residents to be listened to and treated with respect\".\n\nIt says they want to see safe fire doors, sprinklers in blocks to keep fire escapes clear, and for all dangerous cladding to be removed.\n\nIn Newcastle, the projection on to Cruddas Park House says the fire doors don’t work\n\nNatasha Elcock, chairman of Grenfell United and a survivor from the tower, said: \"It's been two years since Grenfell and people are still going to bed at night worried that a fire like Grenfell could happen to them.\"\n\nThe campaigners are calling for the government to introduce a new separate housing regulator to put \"residents concerns over profits of housing associations\".\n\nKarim Mussilhy, vice-chairman of Grenfell United, and who lost his uncle in the fire, said although their message is simple they \"needed the biggest possible platform to make them [the government] listen\".\n\nOne woman says a prayer after attaching a tribute to a railing near the site of Grenfell Tower\n\nMr Mussilhy said residents were raising concerns, but being ignored.\n\n\"That's what happened to residents in Grenfell before the fire. We have to change the culture in social housing so people are treated with respect.\" he continued.\n\nHe has also urged the next prime minister to be \"on the right side of history\" and to prioritise dealing with the tragedy when they take office.\n\nThe Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government said in a statement: \"The Government has banned combustible materials in the external walls of new high-rise homes and guidance requires that sprinklers must be installed in new buildings above 30 metres.\n\n\"Building owners are ultimately responsible for the safety of the building and it is for them to decide whether to retro-fit sprinklers.\"", "Chelsea have agreed a deal in principle for their manager Maurizio Sarri to join Serie A champions Juventus.\n\nAn agreement was reached late on Thursday evening after talks between senior officials. A deal could be completed as early as Friday.\n\nIt is understood a compensation fee in excess of £5m has been agreed.\n\nSarri arrived from Napoli in July 2018 and led the Blues to third place in the Premier League and won the Europa League in his one season in charge.\n• None Why Sarri is leaving Stamford Bridge with stock higher than when he arrived\n\nDespite signing a three-year deal last July, he will become the ninth full-time manager to leave the club under Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.\n\nThroughout the 60-year-old Italian's time at Stamford Bridge there was repeated speculation about his position, with Chelsea fans expressing their discontent at tactics and team selections.\n\nOne of the low points came in February when goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga challenged his authority by refusing to be substituted in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley, shortly before Chelsea were beaten in a penalty shootout by Manchester City.\n\nBut Sarri did manage to win his first ever trophy as manager with a 4-1 victory over Arsenal in May in the Europa League final, and after the match said \"he deserved\" to stay with the club.\n\nChelsea are currently unable to sign any players after they were banned for two transfer windows by Fifa - a decision they are appealing at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.\n\nTheir star player Eden Hazard has joined Real Madrid for a fee that could exceed £150m.\n\nSignificantly, Chelsea have not asked for the suspension to be put on hold until a final decision is reached. It means their only new arrival might be USA forward Christian Pulisic, a £58m signing from Borussia Dortmund in January, who spent the remainder of the campaign on loan in Germany.\n\nJuventus are managerless after Massimiliano Allegri left at the end of last season, having won the league title in each of his five seasons since taking charge in 2014.\n\nAfter earning glowing references for his tactics at Napoli, he looked to have effectively introduced 'Sarri-ball' to his new players as Chelsea started their Premier League campaign with a 12-game unbeaten streak.\n\nBut the Blues were out of title contention after losing three out of four Premier League games from January to February, including a 6-0 defeat at eventual champions Manchester City, which saw them slip to sixth in the table.\n\nChelsea then lost 2-0 at home to Manchester United in the FA Cup, when fans booed the Italian's substitutions and joined in when the visiting supporters sang \"You're getting sacked in the morning\".\n\nHowever, Sarri remained in charge, and of the 19 matches played after they were beaten on penalties in the League Cup final, his side lost just two, as they won their first European trophy since securing the Europa League in 2012-13.\n\nThey also held off the challenge of Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United to finish third in the league and clinch Champions League qualification.\n\nAnalysis - who could Chelsea turn to?\n\nFor all the difficulties Chelsea managers tend to encounter, there has been no shortage of potential candidates being linked to the job.\n\nThe most obvious is Blues' record scorer Frank Lampard.\n\nLampard ended his first season as a manager with defeat at Wembley in the Championship play-off. Lampard is steeped in Chelsea history, won 11 major trophies during his 13 years at the club, and is adored by supporters, even though he eventually moved away to join Manchester City before ending his career in Major League Soccer with New York City.\n\nAt Derby, Lampard also linked up with former team-mate Jody Morris, who developed an impressive reputation during five years working with Chelsea's youth teams - that might improve the pair's chances even more, given the transfer embargo Chelsea are facing.\n\nChelsea loanees Fikayo Tomori, Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham were all involved at Wembley and others, such as Reece James, have also impressed in season-long moves away from the club.\n\nMorris' inside knowledge would be a major asset in deciding which of these youngsters have the capability to step into the first-team picture.\n\nIt is also probable, although by no means certain, that Lampard would be given time if results did not go well.\n\nRafael Benitez, whose Newcastle future is uncertain, is also tipped, despite the fact Chelsea's fans have no love of the 59-year-old, something they made clear during his six months in temporary charge following the dismissal of Roberto di Matteo in 2012, when fans made banners demanding his exit even though he won the Europa League.\n\nWolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo is also of interest. Santo has taken Wolves from the Championship to seventh in the Premier League - and European qualification - in the space of two seasons. He is known to be hugely ambitious and for all the promise Wolves have shown during his time at Molineux, Chelsea still represents a significant step up.\n\nAnd, given Chelsea have already had six Italian managers and he has won five Serie A titles in a row, Massimiliano Allegri cannot be discounted, even if the 51-year-old has said he intends to take a year out of football.", "Almost two-thirds of homebuyers who used the government's Help to Buy scheme could have bought a home without it, an official report has said.\n\nHowever, they may not have been able to buy the house they wanted without the help, the report from the National Audit Office (NAO) found.\n\nIt also found that one in 25 of participants had household incomes of over £100,000.\n\nThe scheme did help boost the profits of building firms, the NAO said.\n\nIt was too early to determine if the scheme had delivered value for money for the taxpayer, the report said.\n\n\"Help To Buy has increased home ownership and housing supply, particularly for first-time buyers,\" Gareth Davies, head of the NAO, said.\n\n\"However, a proportion of participants could have afforded to buy a home without the government's help.\n\n\"The scheme has also exposed the government to significant market risk if property values fall, as well as tying up a significant public financial capacity.\n\n\"The government's greatest challenge now is to wean the property market off the scheme with as little impact as possible on its ambition of creating 300,000 homes a year by 2021,\" he said.\n\nThe scheme comes in two forms, Help to Buy loans and Help to Buy Individual Savings Accounts (Isas).\n\nIn the first version, the government lends up to 20% of the cost of a newly built property, or 40% within Greater London, so buyers need only a 5% deposit and a 75% mortgage to buy it.\n\nThose purchasing a new-build home are not charged interest for the first five years.\n\nThe Help to Buy ISA was launched later, in December 2015, and is open to first-time buyers in the UK.\n\nSavers receive a 25% bonus from the government when they withdraw the money they have saved to buy their first property. The maximum purchase price is £250,000, or £450,000 in London.\n\nThe maximum government bonus that someone can receive is £3,000, if they have saved £12,000.\n\n\"By 2023, the government will have invested up to £29bn in the scheme, tying up cash which cannot be used elsewhere,\" the NAO said.\n\nBigger firms made the most of the scheme.\n\nBetween 2013 and 2018 more than half the sales in England made by Redrow, Bellway, Taylor Wimpey, Barratt and Persimmon involved Help to Buy.\n\nPersimmon is the biggest beneficiary, with almost 15% of the sales made under the Help to Buy Scheme.\n\nPersimmon saw its annual profits top £1bn last year.\n\nLast year Persimmon's previous chief executive refused to answer questions about his £75m bonus, walking off-camera.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Last year Persimmon's previous chief executive refused to answer questions about his pay\n\nJeff Fairburn said it was \"unfortunate\" he had been asked about the payout, which was reduced from £100m after a public backlash.\n\nMike Amey, managing director of global investment management firm Pimco, has told the BBC that profit on a house sold by Persimmon had trebled since Help to Buy was introduced, \"roughly from £20,000 to £60,000\".\n\nFran Boait, executive director of campaigning body Positive Money, said: \"It's now beyond clear that rather than helping those who can't afford to buy a home, Help To Buy has mainly been a subsidy for a housing bubble, benefiting property developers and existing home owners.\"\n\nThe government's investment is expected to be returned from the scheme by 2032 after it closes in 2023. However, the size of the loans mean it is very much exposed to the performance of the housing market.\n\nFrom April 2021, the scheme will be restricted just to first-time buyers.", "Youssef Zaghba told airport authorities he was going to Turkey in 2016 to be a terrorist, the court heard\n\nMI5 may have missed the chance to connect two of the London Bridge attackers before they struck because of admin errors, a senior officer said.\n\nYoussef Zaghba was stopped at Bologna airport in 2016 after telling staff he was going to Turkey to be a terrorist.\n\nItalian authorities asked Britain for more information on him but MI6 sent the request to the wrong person in MI5 and it was never acted on.\n\nZaghba and two accomplices killed eight people in the attacks on 3 June 2017.\n\nThey were shot dead by police after driving a van into pedestrians on London Bridge and stabbing people in and around Borough Market.\n\nThe senior MI5 officer - identified as Witness L - was giving evidence at the Old Bailey at the inquests into the victims' deaths.\n\nThe court heard how Zaghba was stopped at the airport in March 2016, , on his way to Istanbul.\n\nAsked why he was going to Turkey, he said to be \"a terrorist\" before quickly changing his answer to \"tourist\", the court heard.\n\nThe Italian authorities put him on a Europe-wide serious crime watch list. However, MI5 were not aware of this because he had not been flagged as a cross-border national security risk.\n\nThe month after Zaghba was stopped at the airport, Italian officials asked the UK's overseas spy agency, MI6, a series of questions relating to him.\n\nWitness L, who is head of policy, strategy and capability for MI5's international counter-terrorism branch, told the court MI6 did not translate the Italian request for two months - and then sent it to the wrong person in MI5.\n\nGiving evidence shielded from public view, Witness L told the court that individual did not file or act on the memo.\n\n\"I suspect this was probably a misunderstanding,\" he said.\n\n\"I suspect the individual to whom it was sent did not understand they needed to take any action at all.

The politician who, as things stand, is the most likely to enter No 10 in six weeks time and take over not just as Conservative leader, but as prime minister of the whole country.\n\nWhat did we learn from Boris Johnson's appearance today?\n\nNot much about the kind of policies that he might pursue. Nor much really about the kind of leader he might be. But what about the reason that his formal launch was packed with Conservatives of all stripes?\n\nWell, there is something about him that the other candidates don't have. It might repel you. It might delight you. But he is a rare kind of politician, one who almost never receives an apathetic shrug.\n\nHis flair for causing offence is more famous than his reputation for managing policy. His judgement is questioned profoundly by many of those who have worked alongside him.\n\nHis supporters acknowledge tonight that allowing the crowd to jeer journalists who were asking legitimate questions was a misstep.\n\nBut mistakes that might have ended other political careers by now have not disqualified him from holding the highest office. And he inspires fierce loyalty in others, particularly those who were part of his team when he was in charge in London's City Hall.\n\nMaybe it's the sheer force of personality, ego and his desire for power that are bigger than the scale of the political errors he has made.\n\nMaybe too it's the ability to win - unlikely victories in London and the referendum - that means his Tory colleagues and rivals find it hard to resist a politician who can overturn the usual political obstacles.\n\nBut perhaps more than anything else, the tactic that has protected him? Unlike other politicians he has never pretended, or perhaps aspired, to be perfect. That's no excuse of course for offence he has caused, or a cavalier approach to vital details that matter.\n\nIn particular, his handling of the case of the Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe during his time at the Foreign Office appalled many in Westminster, let alone the country.\n\nBut the reason why he is, at the moment, clearly out front in this race is because although you might love to hate him, or hate to love him, Boris Johnson is, for the Tory party, almost impossible to ignore.\n\nAnd whether that pull is a dangerous alchemy or an irresistible charisma, today at least it has resulted in one big achievement.\n\nThe room was full of Conservative politicians from a party that has spent the last three years knocking lumps out of each other and strikingly, they were from both wings.\n\nThere were hard-core Eurosceptics and properly convinced Remainers all there supporting Mr Johnson.\n\nIt was notable too that he was plain that leaving with no deal was not his desired outcome, even though he has suggested to some of the Brexiteer parts of his party that he would pursue that course of action gladly, leaving at Halloween whatever happens.\n\nTrying to square off former Remainers who are desperate to avoid the turmoil of no deal, and Eurosceptics who are resolute that it must be a genuine option?\n\nTheresa May and Boris Johnson are night and day as political characters. But if he is successful in following her into Number 10, he too in a sense would be trying to stitch together a coalition in the Tory Party that can last through inevitable compromise and likely political disappointment.\n\nFor all his Brexit rhetoric, he is not pursuing a purist stance like some of the candidates - whether that's Esther McVey on the Eurosceptic wing or Rory Stewart on the soft Brexit wing - but trying overtly to juggle both sides of the party.\n\nHe may face the same profound truth that Mrs May did that as far as Europe goes, it is impossible to please all the Conservative people all of the time.\n\nTheresa May 2.0, he would not be. But whether he has the political skill to keep his party, and a majority in Parliament together, will be the question demanded of him too.\n\nIt should go without saying by now that politics these days is deeply unpredictable.\n\nThere is plenty of time for the maths in this contest to change fundamentally, for the frontrunner to fail, and those lurking in the middle of the pack suddenly to emerge.\n\nTomorrow in the first round of proper voting, we'll have a better idea of where the numbers are going.\n\nOn Tuesday 18 June BBC One will be hosting a live election debate between the Conservative MPs who are still in the race.\n\nIf you would like to ask the candidates a question live on air, use the form below.

He dismissed the Russian allegation as \"propaganda\".\n\nAnother US Navy image showed the Russian destroyer Admiral Vinogradov (l) close to the USS Chancellorsville\n\nAdmiral Vinogradov came within 50 to 100 feet (15m-30m) of the USS Chancellorsville in the Philippine Sea, the US said.\n\nThe Russian Pacific Fleet meanwhile said the incident took place in the southeast of the East China Sea, and added they had sent a message of protest to the US ship's commanders.\n\nIn a statement it said the US warship had \"suddenly changed direction and crossed the path of Admiral Vinogradov just 50m away,\" forcing the Russian crew to make a quick manoeuvre.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

There is simply no reason for vessels of this size to be in such close proximity.\n\nOne of them - or maybe even both - was at fault. Both sides blame the other. But this kind of incident is becoming ever more frequent and it does generally seem to be the result of a concerted policy by Russia to challenge US and its allies naval operations whenever possible.\n\nOften these incidents occur in the Black Sea which Moscow sometimes regards as its own lake; a view with which other states on its shores - some of them Nato members, or aspiring Nato members - disagree.\n\nSuch incidents between the US and Russia are less frequent in Asian-Pacific waters, where the tensions tend to be between US and Chinese ships or aircraft. But wherever it occurs naval brinkmanship of this kind is dangerous and unnecessary.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. \"I was and still am angry\"\n\nTwo women who were left covered in blood following a homophobic attack on a bus have said they will not be cowed into hiding their sexuality.\n\nMelania Geymonat, 28, and Chris, 29, say they were attacked by several males on the top deck of a London night bus in the early hours of 30 May after they refused to kiss one other.\n\nBoth women were treated in hospital for facial injuries.\n\nFour male teenagers aged between 15 and 18 have been arrested.\n\nAsked whether the attack left her less willing to show affection in public, Chris, who lives in north London but is originally from the US, said: \"I am not scared about being visibly queer.\n\n\"If anything, you should do it more.\"\n\nMs Geymonat, who is a doctor but currently works for Ryanair as a stewardess, said she agreed.\n\nChris said: \"I was and still am angry.

In the last year, 2018, I paid £900. That is just the charge, nothing else.\"\n\nHe says he kept getting charged after going into an unarranged overdraft for day-to-day living costs. He's delighted that the FCA has taken action.\n\nThe regulator said the changes would make overdrafts \"simpler, fairer, and easier to manage\".\n\nWhen the new rules come into force, the typical cost of borrowing £100 through an unarranged overdraft would drop from £5 a day, to less than 20p, the regulator said. However, some fear that the costs to those who previously used arranged overdraft charges might rise, or charges for accounts may rise.\n\nBanks and building societies will be required to charge a simple annual interest rate on all overdrafts, and overdraft advertisements will need to come with that rate clearly displayed, to help consumers to compare various products.\n\nThe FCA's chief executive, Andrew Bailey, said the overdraft market was currently \"dysfunctional\" and \"causing significant consumer harm\" because vulnerable customers are often hit by excessive charges for unarranged overdrafts, which can be 10 times as high as fees for payday loans.\n\n\"Consumers cannot meaningfully compare or work out the cost of borrowing as a result of complex and opaque charges, that are both a result of and driver of poor competition,\" said Mr Bailey.\n\n\"The decisive action we are taking today will give greater protections to millions of people who use an overdraft, particularly the most vulnerable.\"\n\nEric Leenders, from bank trade body UK Finance, said: \"Overdrafts can provide a convenient way for customers to smooth their short-term cash-flow, and there is a highly competitive market in the UK. The banking industry is committed to helping customers manage their money and we will be working closely with the FCA to implement these rules.\"\n\nGillian Guy, chief executive of Citizens Advice, said overdrafts were one of the most common areas of concern when worried consumers contacted the charity.\n\n\"Overdraft charges can have serious knock-on effects for people's debt and mental health. These new rules should help thousands of people from getting trapped in a debt spiral,\" she said.\n\n\"If, after these measures are introduced, people still pay over the odds, the FCA should review the need for an interest rate cap to ensure no one is paying back more than twice what they borrowed.\"\n\nPeter Tutton, of debt charity StepChange, said: \"We would like the regulator to be more pro-active and fleet of foot in identifying and refining the specific, practical steps banks should be taking to help customers escape the overdraft trap more quickly, and to break the cycle of repeat use of overdrafts.\"\n• None 'We were one bill away from disaster'", "Sally Challen has been released from prison after serving nine years in jail for her husband's murder - a conviction that was quashed on Friday\n\nA woman who served nine years in jail for her husband's murder before her conviction was quashed has been reunited with her sons.\n\nSally Challen's son David released a picture on Twitter of them and brother James after their mother's release.\n\nMrs Challen, 65, was found guilty of murdering 61-year-old Richard in a hammer attack at their home in Claygate, Surrey and jailed in 2011.\n\nMrs Challen will now face a fresh trial after being bailed on Friday.\n\nHer conviction was quashed by the Court of Appeal in February, following a campaign by her two sons. She admitted killing her husband in August 2010, but denied murder.\n\nOn Friday, Mr Justice Edis set a further hearing for 7 June and a trial date for 1 July \"if necessary\".\n\nMr Challen, 31, posted a photograph of himself with his mother and brother James, 35, on Twitter on Saturday.\n\nHe wrote: \"First day home with our mother after 9 years in prison.\"\n\nSpeaking outside the Old Bailey on Friday, he said he was \"overjoyed\" about her release, adding: \"Our mother now rejoins our family.\"\n\nWriting on Twitter after his mother walked out of the prison in Ashford, Surrey, later that day, he said: \"Everyone at HMP Bronzefield have been so lovely to us.\"\n\nSally and Richard Challen were married for 31 years - she has never denied she killed him\n\nDuring the two-day appeal hearing in February, the court heard evidence relating to Mrs Challen's state of mind at the time of the killing and the issue of \"coercive control\".\n\nCoercive control describes a pattern of behaviour by an abuser to harm, punish or frighten their victim and became a criminal offence in England and Wales in December 2015.\n\nThe murder conviction was overturned by three judges who said the evidence of a psychiatrist, that Mrs Challen was suffering from two mental disorders at the time of the killing, was not available at the time of her trial and undermined the safety of her conviction.\n\nAt Friday's hearing, lawyers for Mrs Challen, who has never denied killing her husband, asked for the murder conviction to be reduced to manslaughter but the panel of judges refused and ordered a retrial.\n\nSpeaking outside the Royal Courts of Justice after the conviction was quashed, David said: \"The abuse our mother suffered, we felt, was never recognised properly and her mental conditions were not taken into account.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Coverage: Live across BBC TV, radio and the BBC Sport website and App.\n\nThe eighth Women's World Cup kicks off in France on Friday with the hosts trying to bring back memories of 1998 when their male counterparts won their first tournament on home soil.\n\nReigning champions United States are chasing a record fourth World Cup success, while England will be led by Phil Neville as they attempt to improve on their third place four years ago.\n\nScotland are one of four debutants among the 24 teams, but with some world-class talent in their squad could they upset a few teams along the way?\n\nWe asked a selection of BBC pundits, among others, who they thought would shine and what they were most looking forward to before the final on 7 July.\n\nWho will win? The US will always be favourites, because culturally we know how to find a way to win. But they are not my favourites. They are winning games by outscoring opponents after uncharacteristically letting goals in and I don't think that's going to work in a major tournament. For me, France are the team to beat. Overall they have the best team and have a beautiful fluidity to their play. I just hope they don't let the pressure of a home World Cup get to them.\n\nOutsiders to do well? I always believe you need a good defence and goalkeeper to win a major championship and although they aren't outsiders, Germany will be very difficult to beat.\n\nPlayer to shine? I love to watch French left-back Sakina Karchaoui play and England's Nikita Parris is fun to watch, but one of my favourite players of all time is Scotland's Kim Little. I loved playing with her at Seattle and the world was cheated not seeing her at the last World Cup. She's a complete player.\n\nMost looking forward to? This tournament was meant to be held in France because it will have beautiful football-specific stadiums, grass fields, it has a soccer-intellectual crowd and country, and it will be everything that a Women's World Cup should be compared to four years ago in Canada. That was everything a World Cup should not have been.\n\nWho will win? England of course! I'm going stick with my team. Winning the SheBelieves Cup was huge for confidence and belief but now it's doing the same again when the pressure is on and in the 'no tomorrow' games. As for France, every tournament in the past you have to fancy them. They have so many talented individuals but for me have never been able to bring those talents together. As a home nation, this could be different. Could this be the first time where we have men's and women's world champions from the same country at the same time?\n\nOutsiders to do well? Not sure if you can call them dark horses because they have been on the rise the last couple of years but Australia are a team that can definitely cause an upset. They have pace and with a talent like striker Sam Kerr in the team, all defenders will have to be on their best game up against her.\n\nPlayer to shine? Nikita Parris. She had a great season this year at Manchester City and has come into her own with the national team. Every tournament England have played in I love the fact that a new star emerges. When I look back Steph Houghton had a great 2012 Olympics with Team GB, Lucy Bronze did the same at the 2015 World Cup and I think this one could be the one when everyone is talking about Nikita Parris.\n\nMost looking forward to? I love travelling to the games and doing them pitchside with Gabby Logan. Hopefully we will do our best to showcase how amazing the atmosphere is as well as giving great insight to the viewers at home. Making supporters feel part of it is so important to help grow the game.\n\nWho will win? England. They've been churning out results when they've not necessarily been at their best, which is always a sign of a good team. Secondly, there is no-one left to fear. England have always had someone to fear, a team we haven't beaten, but they are not at that point any more. Thirdly, the vibe. It's very relaxed and confident and controlled. I've not felt that before and a lot of it is down to manager Phil Neville and the winning mentality he has instilled in the players.\n\nOutsiders to do well? France have never got past the quarter-finals so they are dark horses, with regards to previous achievements. The product they have with Lyon and Paris St-Germain means women's football is bigger than it's ever been. They have some of the world's best players at Lyon. The challenge is to unite as a group and do it on home soil as the Netherlands did two years ago [to win Euro 2017].\n\nPlayer to shine? Nikita Parris. I played with her at Everton, she's the Women's Super League's all-time top scorer, and she has moved to Lyon, one of the world's best teams. She's feisty, and will do anything to win the game. I'd hate to play against her, but she's the first name on your teamsheet. She can make her mark at World Cup, she's done it at the SheBelieves Cup, and she's still young at 25.\n\nMost looking forward to? The new additions. Scotland are a quality team, Jamaica offer colour and flare and they didn't have a national team four years ago. I'm also looking forward to seeing fellow newcomers Chile and South Africa.\n\nWho will win? It's daft not to consider holders the United States. Scotland lost 1-0 to them late last year and they did really well, but you could see the quality the US had in the team. They have tournament experience and pedigree, so looking past them would be difficult.\n\nEngland have a big expectation to go deep in the tournament, and are one of the favourites, but it's whether they can live up to the hype.\n\nOutsiders to do well? Scotland. They are in a difficult group with England, Japan and Argentina, but they have been winning games and are confident. Boss Shelley Kerr has instilled self-belief in them and they have some top-class players in Kim Little, Erin Cuthbert and Caroline Weir. A large percentage of the team play in the FA Women's Super League, which means they are playing at a high level, full-time and have access to great training facilities.\n\nPlayer to shine? Little is well-known as a world-class player on both sides of the Atlantic, while Cuthbert has been given massive plaudits for her performances this season and scoring the best goal in the Women's Champions League. But I'm going to name fellow Scotland midfielder Weir as a player to look out for. She plays deeper and is an outstanding ball-player. She's technically gifted.\n\nThere won't be many better midfield trios in the whole tournament.\n\nMost looking forward to? It's got to be the game between England and Scotland, because it's both team's opener and for what it means. It's going to generate a big crowd and there will be masses of media attention. The Scotland team is better prepared now and it will not be a repeat of Euro 2017 where they lost 6-0. They will believe they can win, and I think it will be close. I just hope we can do ourselves justice.\n\nWho will win? Normally at a World Cup my prediction would be a real struggle between head and heart, but I genuinely believe England have the best chance they'll ever have this year. Obviously teams like the USA and host nation France will also fancy their chances, but I think this tournament is the Lionesses' for the taking.\n\nOutsiders to do well? Scotland have bags of quality and a real chance to spring a few surprises, even against their old rivals England. I wouldn't be at all shocked to see them make it through to the knockout rounds. Australia and Japan shouldn't be underestimated too, and I wouldn't bet against either reaching the latter stages.\n\nPlayer to shine? The exciting thing about this year's tournament is how much attacking talent will be on show, and I'm hoping for some really open games that give forwards the chance to shine. The Netherlands boast some of the best in the business, and I expect Shanice van de Sanden, Vivianne Miedema and Lieke Martens to all perform. As for defenders, I can't look beyond England's Lucy Bronze, the most complete full-back in the world right now.\n\nMost looking forward to? First and foremost, England winning it! I know I've jinxed it twice now already, but you've got to have faith, haven't you? More objectively, this is set to be the most exciting, competitive and watched Women's World Cup ever too, and that's got to be worth getting excited about.\n\nWho will win? I think that England can do well having won the SheBelieves Cup. With all the World Cup fever from last summer, I think there is a good energy to be tapped into and I'll be totally rooting for them. I know the US are going through a legal battle, so I wonder if that might be a distraction for them. France will have good chance too.\n\nOutsiders to do well? I've been hearing good things about Scotland and know they have a strong team. It would be great if they went far in the tournament.\n\nPlayer to shine? My favourite England player is Jill Scott, I like how she plays but the player who shines for me most is one who is not even there: Norway's Ada Hegerberg. For one of the top players in the world to boycott the World Cup is a big deal, she emits a Billie Jean-King vibe about her and she's always pushing for change. It's a big sacrifice but it's really noble what she's doing.\n\nMost looking forward to? I'm going with 15 of my Legends FC team-mates to Le Havre to see England's second group game against Argentina, which will be awesome. It will be my first time at a World Cup and we're all excited about going.

There were 11,310 deaths.\n\nYet the 12 outbreaks between 2000 and 2010 averaged fewer than 100 cases.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nSo why are modern outbreaks so much bigger?\n\n\"We are entering a very new phase of high impact epidemics and this isn't just Ebola,\" Dr Michael Ryan, the executive director of the WHO's health emergencies programme told me.\n\nHe said the world is \"seeing a very worrying convergence of risks\" that are increasing the dangers of diseases including Ebola, cholera and yellow fever.\n\nHe said climate change, emerging diseases, exploitation of the rainforest, large and highly mobile populations, weak governments and conflict were making outbreaks more likely to occur and more likely to swell in size once they did.\n\nDr Ryan said the World Health Organization was tracking 160 disease events around the world and nine were grade three emergencies (the WHO's highest emergency level).\n\n\"I don't think we've ever had a situation where we're responding to so many emergencies at one time. This is a new normal, I don't expect the frequency of these events to reduce.\"\n\nAs a result, he argued that countries and other bodies needed to \"get to grips with readiness [and] be ready for these epidemics\".\n\nSoldiers of the armed forces of the DR Congo prepare to escort health workers\n\nThe outbreak in DR Congo continues to worry health officials.\n\nIt took 224 days for the number of cases to reach 1,000, but just a further 71 days to reach 2,000.\n\nTackling the disease has been complicated by conflict in the region - between January and May there were more than 40 attacks on health facilities.\n\nAnother problem is distrust of healthcare workers with about a third of deaths being in the community. It means people are not seeking treatment and risk spreading the disease to neighbours and relatives.\n\nDr Josie Golding, the epidemics lead at the Wellcome Trust, said the world needed to get better at preparing for such outbreaks.\n\n\"With Ebola in West Africa, that was the mobility of people and porous borders - that is now the world we live in, that won't stop,\" she said.\n\nClimate change could lead to more outbreaks like cholera in Mozambique after Cyclone Idai, she said. But she hoped diseases resulting from humanitarian crises would not be a new normal.\n\n\"Preparedness needs to be better, we can see movement of populations and climate change, a lot of this we can see coming, and we need more resources to plan and prepare.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I'm not going to lie, I'm petrified.\"\n\nLisa Valentine's son, Bradleigh, has a potentially fatal nut allergy, so the first time she watches him being fed some peanut will be a leap of faith.\n\nThe six-year-old's family, from Wrexham, are hoping he can take part in a ground-breaking trial to reduce his sensitivity with tiny doses of peanut.\n\nLisa admits \"it's a risk\" but says that for Bradleigh and their family, it could transform their lives.\n\nBirthday parties, holidays and eating out are normal and exciting events in the lives of most children while growing up. But none of it is simple for Bradleigh.\n\nFearing any contact with products containing nuts could trigger a reaction or even cause him to have an anaphylactic shock, Lisa takes precautions.\n\n\"We can't just go and just eat here or there - we can't do that and we will never do that,\" she says.\n\n\"We won't go on holiday... we won't go on an aeroplane because we don't want to put him at risk.\"\n\nBradleigh's family hope that an immunotherapy trial could change everything\n\nBut the family hope the immunotherapy trial could change everything.\n\n\"Our lives would be completely different,\" says Lisa.\n\n\"If it worked, I don't think I would buy him a bag of peanuts, but I don't think we'd scrutinise the 'may contain', which would mean that we could go to the supermarket and just put things in.\"\n\nAround 2-4% of children in the UK have a peanut allergy, according to recent figures.\n\nCurrently, most peanut allergy therapies involve using tiny amounts of carefully prepared peanut flour. But as it can be expensive, it may never be available on the NHS.\n\nResearchers at Imperial College London are hoping that using boiled peanuts could be a more cost-effective and safer option.\n\nPaediatric allergist and immunologist Dr Paul Turner, responsible for the trial at St Mary's Hospital, London, says: \"We're trying to look at different ways - cheaper ways - of doing this sort of treatment safely, that would also be affordable in the context of the NHS.\"\n\nFollowing the first trial, all patients who completed a year of the boiled nut therapy were able to tolerate eating six to eight peanuts without experiencing significant symptoms.\n\nDr Turner, who developed the idea while working abroad in Australia, said it had been very successful.\n\n\"Colleagues of mine had noticed that some children from south east Asia were allergic to peanut butter, which is made out of roasted peanuts, but not boiled peanut soup,\" he said.\n\n\"That got us thinking, what happens when you boil peanuts that makes it less allergic in some people?\"\n\nDr Paul Turner, Paediatric Allergist and Immunologist at St Mary's Hospital, London is responsible for the trial\n\nBoiling peanuts reduces the amount of the peanut protein that triggers the immune system to react in an allergic reaction.\n\nAs part of this novel immunotherapy trial, patients are given small doses of boiled peanuts over an extended period of time.\n\nDespite the trial being conducted in a strictly controlled environment by trained researches, Lisa is still concerned about the potential impact of feeding Bradleigh peanuts.\n\n\"It's risky, isn't it? Every time, every other week, that he has that little bit more - or it might be the first time - he could have an anaphylactic shock,\" she said.\n\n\"As much as you think he's going to be in a controlled environment where the hospital can save him, what if they can't?\n\n\"You do worry as a mum - you are going to worry about those kinds of things, so it is risky. But it could change his life.\"\n\nTo participate in the trial, Lisa will have to travel with Bradleigh from Wrexham to London every other week and stay in the city overnight.\n\nAlthough it may be expensive, the family have decided to \"find a way of doing it, whatever it would take\". They have also been helped by friends and family who've been raising money.\n\nLynne Regent, the chief executive of the Anaphylaxis Campaign, welcomes the potential of this type of treatment.\n\n\"I think it's fantastic. If people are affected by severe food allergies, at the moment, really the only path they can take is avoidance and also carrying their rescue medication,\" she said.\n\nParents are being warned by the researchers not attempt to self-medicate their children or attempt this type of therapy themselves.\n\nThey're hoping that their own trial may lead to a cost-effective and safe treatment being available on the NHS, which could transform the lives of thousands of children and young people.", "Three hospital patients have died in an outbreak of listeria linked to pre-packed sandwiches.\n\nPublic Health England (PHE) said the victims were among six patients affected in England and the deaths occurred in Manchester and Liverpool.\n\nTwo of the victims were at Manchester Royal Infirmary, with the other a patient at Aintree Hospital.\n\nSandwiches and salads from The Good Food Chain linked to the outbreak have been withdrawn and production stopped.\n\nPHE said the products were withdrawn from hospitals when the links to the infections were first identified.\n\nA spokesperson for the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust said it offered its \"deepest condolences to the bereaved families\" and \"sincerely regret\" that two of their seriously ill patients contracted listeria.\n\nThe trust, which would not say when the deaths happened, said the sandwiches were from the patient menu.\n\nThe first patient showed symptoms on 25 April while the most recent case was reported on 15 May, a PHE spokeswoman said.\n\nAintree Hospital said: \"Public health experts advised us of this supply chain issue on Friday 24 May and we immediately removed all products from this supplier.\"\n\nDr Nick Phin, deputy director at the National Infection Service at PHE said: \"To date, there have been no associated cases identified outside healthcare organisations, and any risk to the public is low.\"\n\nPHE said The Good Food Chain - which supplied 43 NHS trusts across the UK - had been supplied with meat produced by North Country Cooked Meats which subsequently produced a positive test result for the outbreak strain of listeria.\n\nThis business and North Country Quality Foods, which it distributes through, have also voluntarily ceased production.\n\nA spokesman for The Good Food Chain Ltd said the company's production facility in Stone, Staffordshire, was \"cross contaminated by an ingredient from one of its approved meat suppliers\".\n\nA spokesman for North Country Cooked Meats said it was \"currently co-operating fully with the environmental health and the Food Standards Agency in their investigations\".\n\nListeria is a bacterium which can cause a type of food poisoning called listeriosis.\n\nNormally, the symptoms are mild - a high temperature, chills, feeling sick - and go away on their own after a few days.\n\nBut these cases occurred in people who were seriously ill.\n\nAlong with pregnant women, newborn babies and the elderly, they are most at risk of a more serious infection that can spread to the brain or bloodstream.\n\nIn 2017 there were 33 deaths linked to listeriosis in England and Wales.\n\nListeria can be found in many types of food such as soft cheeses, chilled ready-to-eat foods like pre-packed salads, sandwiches and sliced meats, and unpasteurised milk products.\n\nTo reduce the risk, the NHS advises people keep chilled food in the fridge, heat food until it is piping hot and not eat food after its use-by date.", "The PSNI is in discussions about possibly relaxing enforcement over the MOT backlog.\n\nA number of MOT centres in Northern Ireland are set to open on a Sunday in a bid to tackle a tests backlog.\n\nSome motorists have found themselves unable to secure an appointment until after the expiration of their MOTs.\n\nSo far, the Driver and Vehicle Agency (DVA) has opened 2,000 Sunday MOT appointment slots for 16 and 23 June.\n\nAdditional vehicle examiners have also been recruited and earlier reminder letters sent to deal with the waits.\n\nThe Sunday appointments will be available in Belfast, Coleraine, Craigavon, Newbuildings and Newtownards.\n\nThe DVA said appointments for subsequent Sundays will be released \"on a rolling basis\" over the next two months and can be booked online.\n\nMother-of-four Dana Jamison said her reminder letter had been dated 21 May, but she only received it on 28 May.\n\n\"And then the earliest test I was able to get was for 22 July and my MOT is up on 7 July,\" she told BBC News NI.\n\n\"It's a van I have.

Her son David explains why he's backing the appeal and hopes to see his mother freed.\n\nSally's last words to David were supposed to be heartfelt but undramatic. \"You know I love you, don't you?\" she said, fixing his gaze through an open car door, as she dropped him off at work.\n\nA day earlier, she had killed her long-time husband, and father of David, in a frenzied hammer attack. But as he headed to his job, David knew nothing of Richard Challen's gruesome death.\n\nAfter that drop-off, she had planned to swiftly end her own life - jumping from the top floor of a nearby car park. When she realised the car park was closed, she pressed on regardless, driving to Beachy Head in East Sussex. There she planned to jump to her death off the chalky precipice.\n\nFrom the clifftop, Sally called her cousin to admit the killing. She repeated the admission to a suicide team and a chaplain, who had been called to help her.\n\nIt took them two hours to talk her down from the edge.\n\nShe was charged with her husband's murder, convicted and jailed for life.\n\nHowever, eight years on, lawyers acting for Sally Challen are hoping to make legal history, and David is working to help them. They hope to use a law passed in 2015, which recognises psychological manipulation, or coercive control, as a form of domestic abuse, to secure her release.\n\nDavid Challen says his mother suffered years of abuse at the hands of his father\n\nJust as physical violence in a relationship has been recognised as a mitigating factor in a killing, her lawyers say her history of psychological abuse by Richard provides a defence of provocation.\n\nThe circumstances around the killing itself give a taste of the sort of coercive control Richard exerted over his wife.\n\nIn the wealthy suburban village of Claygate, Surrey, one wet Saturday morning in August 2010, Sally visited the house she had, until recently, shared with Richard, her husband of 31 years.\n\nHe lived there alone since she had walked out on the relationship the previous November, after discovering he had been visiting prostitutes.\n\nDavid and his elder brother James, who prefers to avoid media attention, say their father inflicted years of psychological abuse on their mother. Having left Richard, the sons were adamant their mother should stay away from him.\n\nHowever, unknown to them, she had secretly begun seeing Richard again, hoping to patch up their marriage.\n\nWhat actually happened in the family home that morning was far removed from reconciliation.\n\nOn this particular morning, she drove the short distance from her new home. In the car with her was a handbag and, stashed inside it, a hammer.\n\nRichard had wanted her to approve a post-nuptial agreement that would cut her rights to the £1m family home and impose stringent conditions, such as not interrupting him and not talking to other people when they were together in restaurants.\n\nThere was no food in the house and Richard was hungry, so he asked her to go out and buy something for his lunch.\n\nAs she headed back from the shops, Sally suspected Richard had had an ulterior motive for getting her out of the house. So, on her return she picked up his phone, rang the last number he had dialled and found it answered by a woman.\n\nIn the family kitchen, Sally fried bacon and eggs on the hob. Richard sat with his back to her at the table.\n\nShe served him, and, as he ate, she pulled the hammer from her bag and hit Richard 20 times over the head.\n\nShe then wrapped his body in curtains and blankets, left a note saying: \"I love you, Sally,\" and left.\n\nShe bought herself some cigarettes, drank some wine and composed a suicide note. But she decided to delay killing herself until she had seen David who, at 23, still lived with her.\n\nThe next day, David remembers, his mother dropped him at work and, as he stepped out of the car, she made her heartfelt pledge of love.\n\nLater that day, David was summoned by his manager.\n\n\"Then came round the corner, my cousin, followed by a police officer, uniformed, and rushed to me, grabbed me on both shoulders and said, 'your father's dead'.\"\n\nCharged with her husband's murder, 10 months later Sally stood in the dock of Guildford Crown Court. Her hair was a mess and her fingers stained yellow from smoking. David remembers the proceedings being hard to watch.\n\n\"Anyone standing up who had anything worth saying was not saying enough, or not feeling as if they had enough time, or not being asked the right questions. She was being painted as vengeful and jealous.\"\n\nHere was a woman who counted her husband's Viagra and monitored his phone calls, the prosecution said.\n\nIn court, Sally hardly spoke. But there was video evidence in which she admitted to the killing and testimony from the Beachy Head suicide prevention team. They recounted her confessing: \"I killed him with a hammer. I hit him lots of times... If I can't have him, no-one can.\"\n\nConvicted of murder and jailed for life, all hope appeared to have expired for Sally. Then, in 2015, a law came into force that recognised psychological manipulation, or coercive control, as a form of domestic abuse.\n\nIn March 2018, Sally Challen won leave to appeal against her conviction.\n\nHer solicitor, Harriet Wistrich, of the feminist campaigning organisation Justice for Women, says the new law should be accepted as \"new evidence\" in the case.\n\n\"We're arguing, for the first time, that the framework for understanding domestic abuse that's set out in coercive and controlling behaviour which became law in 2015, provides a way of understanding Sally's actions which would support a defence of provocation.\"\n\nShe believes this is the first time coercive control has been used as a defence in a murder appeal: \"Our argument is that if this evidence is allowed as fresh evidence it renders the murder conviction unsafe therefore that murder conviction should be quashed.\"\n\nShe says that the appeal court could reduce the conviction to manslaughter or order a retrial.\n\nThe fact that the family want to see her freed - and none of Richard's friends or relatives has come forward to say otherwise - is significant, she believes. But she fears the fact Sally brought the hammer with her \"with a conditional intent to use it\", suggests some premeditation. This could mean the murder conviction will stand, says Ms Wistrich.\n\nBoth grown-up sons back the legal challenge, with David clear that his father's treatment of his mother is a textbook example of coercive control.\n\n\"It was tick, tick, tick - everything: financial abuse, psychological manipulation, controlling her freedom of movement, just controlling every facet of her mind... It was almost like she was a robot and he punched in the commands of what she had to do.\"\n\nSally and Richard on their wedding day in 1979\n\nSally Jenney was 15 when she met Richard, five years her senior, in 1971. They were married in 1979. Sally had nothing but wide-eyed love for Richard, David says, but his father felt otherwise.\n\n\"Seeing women, cheating on her, brothels.\"\n\nAnd when she challenged him, David remembers his father questioned her sanity: \"'Sally, you are mad'. It was a mantra.\"\n\nThere were petty rules. In restaurants she was not allowed to speak to other people.\n\n\"He didn't like her having any independence in terms of friends, it was only friends together. It was total control.\"\n\nIf she displeased him, Richard would restrict her car use to work travel only, and all household spending came out of her earnings. Neighbours have said he treated her as if she belonged to him.\n\nAnd Sally was subjected to constant criticism.\n\n\"My father would refer to my mother as 'saddlebags', 'thunder thighs', really critiques of her weight... and that was something me and my brother witnessed and heard all the time. Not just in our own company but with other friends as well... It was just not right.\"\n\nAt the original trial, it was suggested Sally attacked Richard in a rage, after realising he had called a girlfriend that morning. But David says he believes his mother's claim that she was unaware of her actions when she killed Richard.\n\n\"She took that hammer and she killed my father. I recognise what happened but we have to recognise what psychological control does. I don't know why she took that hammer. She doesn't understand why,\" he says.\n\nDavid says his mother still loves Richard, something he and his brother \"can't understand\".\n\n\"We don't know what to do with that... my father's not alive any more and he still has power over her.\"\n\nDavid says he hopes the appeal \"will acknowledge my mother's mental abuse, will acknowledge what she suffered throughout her life\".\n\n\"The cause is not that she's a jealous wife,\" he adds. \"She has been manipulated psychologically all her life, tied down by this man, my father. She deserves her right to freedom. She deserves for her abuse to be recognised.\"\n\nDavid says the only way to help his mother is to let her be free", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nLabour has narrowly seen off a Brexit Party challenge to hold on to its Peterborough seat in a by-election.\n\nUnion activist Lisa Forbes retained the constituency for Labour, taking 31% of the vote and beating the Brexit Party's Mike Greene (29%) by 683 votes.\n\nLabour leader Jeremy Corbyn called it an \"incredible\" win for the \"politics of hope over the politics of fear\".\n\nBut Nigel Farage, who founded the Brexit Party less than two months ago, called its showing \"very significant\".\n\nThe Conservatives came third with 21%, while the Liberal Democrats were fourth with 12%, followed by the Green Party on 3%.\n\nThe Peterborough by-election was called after Fiona Onasanya - who won for Labour in 2017 but was convicted of lying over a speeding offence and thrown out of the party - became the first MP to be ousted under recall rules.\n\nIn her victory speech, Ms Forbes said, to cheers from her supporters, that \"the politics of hope can win regardless of the odds\".\n\n\"Despite the differing opinions across our city, the fact that the Brexit Party have been rejected here in Peterborough shows that the politics of division will not win,\" she said.\n\nThe Brexit Party had been the bookmakers' favourite to take the Cambridgeshire seat - which would have been its first at Westminster - following its success in the recent European elections.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nThe Labour leader challenged the next Tory leader to call an immediate general election\n\nJoining Labour's victory celebrations on a visit to the city, Mr Corbyn said: \"All the experts wrote Lisa Forbes off. All the experts wrote Labour off. Write Labour off at your peril.\"\n\nThe Labour leader said the party had triumphed due to its anti-austerity message and its opposition to a \"cliff-edge\" no-deal Brexit that would threaten jobs and investment.\n\nHe challenged whoever succeeds Theresa May as Conservative leader to call an immediate general election.\n\nDespite the Brexit Party's failure to take the seat, leader Mr Farage said he was \"pretty buoyed\", as it had \"come from nowhere and produced a massive result\".\n\nHe rejected claims that its focus on a single issue limited its appeal, telling BBC Radio 4's Today programme we have a \"very strong, simple message that people believe in\".\n\nMr Farage later handed in a letter to Downing Street calling for his party's MEPs to be included in the UK's Brexit negotiating team.\n\nHe told reporters he believed the NHS should be included in future US trade negotiations despite the political outcry when Donald Trump raised the possibility earlier this week - comments which the US president subsequently appeared to row back on.\n\nThe Brexit Party has made a huge impression - but history is written by the winners.\n\nHad Nigel Farage's party actually won this narrowly, he would have had much more momentum to argue not just to get Brexit done by the end of October, but to have huge influence potentially over how the Conservatives choose their leader.\n\nHad Labour lost narrowly, there would have been a big demand from the rank and file for Jeremy Corbyn to sharpen his Brexit act and to call for a referendum under all circumstances. That has not happened either.\n\nThe conclusion that the Labour leadership is drawing from this is that people actually wanted to talk about things other than Brexit.\n\nBy talking about council cuts, crime, and education, they managed not to fight on the same territory as their opponents and were able to carve out their own distinctive message, get out their core vote and sneak over the line.\n\nConservative leadership candidate Boris Johnson tweeted his \"commiserations\" to Tory candidate Paul Bristow, who, he said, \"did not deserve to come third\", while fellow contenders Dominic Raab, Matt Hancock and Jeremy Hunt said the result showed the threat from Labour.\n\nConservative Party chairman Brandon Lewis said the \"clear message\" from its poor performance in Peterborough as well as in recent council and European elections was the public wanted the government to deliver on the Brexit referendum result.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nPolling expert Professor Sir John Curtice said the Peterborough by-election had not been as \"dramatic\" as the UK-wide European elections last month, in which the Brexit Party and Liberal Democrats came first and second.\n\nBut he added that the combined results had been \"enough to disturb the regular rhythms of two-party politics\".\n\nMs Forbes caused controversy during the campaign when she liked a social media post which said Theresa May had a \"Zionist slave masters agenda\".\n\nLabour said she had liked a video expressing solidarity with the victims of March's terror attacks on mosques in the New Zealand city of Christchurch \"without reading the accompanying text, which Facebook users know is an easy thing to do\".\n\n\"She has fully accounted for this genuine mistake and apologised,\" a party source said.\n\nBut the Jewish Labour Movement called for Ms Forbes to have the Labour whip suspended, meaning she would have to sit in the Commons as an independent MP.\n\nMeanwhile, Labour Against Antisemitism asked for her to be suspended from the party, calling her election a \"dark day\" for Labour.\n• None By-election 'not just about Brexit'", "The annual parade marks the founding of the Royal Hospital by King Charles II in 1682.

The last one there's an element of fatigue, and when you are fatigued errors happen.\n\n\"We were not quite as sharp on some of the decision-making but I think it's a really important game for us to reflect on, and the next few days will be painful having got to this stage.\"\n\nEngland appeared to have taken the lead with five minutes remaining as Jesse Lingard beat Jasper Cillessen with a calm finish, but the goal was ruled out because the Manchester United forward was ruled offside following a video assistant referee (VAR) review, a decision Southgate described as \"deflating\".\n• None Two mistakes, 2.96 out of 10 - Stones comes bottom of player rater\n\n'We were inches away'\n\nEngland captain Harry Kane was introduced off the bench in the second half, after his involvement in Saturday's Champions League final, and the Tottenham striker says his side will take the defeat \"on the chin\".\n\n\"We scored what we thought was going to be the winner but that's the fine margins in games like this,\" Kane told Sky Sports. \"It's part of learning as a team, we take that on the chin and that's the way we want to play.\n\n\"That's what VAR is there for. It's hard because you think you've won but we've got to get used to it. I'm sure they got it right.\n\n\"I don't think the Champions League final affected it tonight. As a squad we are good enough whoever plays and we were a few inches away from winning it.\"\n\nRaheem Sterling, who won his 50th cap as captain in Kane's absence from the start, said the Three Lions were \"punished\" for their \"silly mistakes\".\n\n\"We made a few mistakes and I thought we tried to play at times but it didn't work,\" he told Sky Sports. \"We have still made progress to get to this stage but it is about kicking on and making that last step now.\"\n\nIn a game of mistakes, 19-year-old Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt conceded a first-half penalty after bringing down Marcus Rashford once the Manchester United had dispossessed him.\n\nHowever, De Ligt recovered to bring his side level with a powerful header after losing his marker Stones at a corner.\n\n\"We all make mistakes but he [De Ligt] responded superbly - straight away he beat a player,\" said Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman.\n\n\"I said nothing to him at half-time and was delighted that he scored.\"", "India confirmed eight of its citizens were among the dead in Dubai\n\nAt least 17 people of different nationalities have been killed and several more injured after a bus hit an overhead road sign in Dubai.\n\nThe Oman-registered vehicle was carrying 31 passengers when the crash occurred on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, police said.\n\nIndian officials said that eight Indian citizens were among the dead.\n\nThe driver, who is in his 50s, is receiving treatment for minor injuries and an investigation is underway.\n\nOn their official Twitter account, Dubai police offered their \"sincere condolences and sympathies\" to the families of the victims.\n\n\"Sometimes a slight error or negligence during the driving of the vehicle leads to dire consequences,\" police chief Maj Gen Abdullah Khalifa Al-Marri said.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

After seven faultless episodes, the grand finale of the best TV series of 2018 was almost as underwhelming as Eve Polastri's marriage.\n\nAll the delicious ingredients of the previous shows were still there (excellent acting, writing, soundtrack, and directing), but someone tweaked the recipe and served up a bit of dog's dinner with a distinctly hammy whiff.\n\nThe smell lingers well into the opening episode of the new series, which is a little too knowing and, on occasion, close to becoming a pastiche of itself.\n\nVillanelle (Jodie Comer) is too predictable, Eve (Sandra Oh) is too wrung out, and Niko her husband, too needy. Thankfully, Fiona Shaw shows the way with understated class and intelligence, as Eve's boss Carolyn.\n\nFiona Shaw as the ruthless spy chief, Carolyn Martens, who has a tricky relationship with Eve\n\nThe action begins 30 seconds after the last season finished.\n\nM16 agent Eve is standing on the staircase of assassin Villanelle's Parisian apartment. She is holding the bloody knife with which she stabbed the ruthless Russian psycho-killer, who has played her party trick and disappeared into thin air.\n\nSandra Oh says agent Eve Polastri goes to \"a psychologically dark place\" in the second series\n\nFilming the scene where assassin Villanelle (Jodie Comer) tries to hail a taxi, moments after being stabbed\n\nThere's a lot of hyperventilating and many a furrowed brow. That's on screen, and maybe off it as well in the writers' room.\n\nThe daunting task facing Emerald Fennell and her scriptwriting collaborators was how to pick up where Phoebe Waller-Bridge left off and somehow re-juice a dried up drama.\n\nThe mutual obsession between Eve and Villanelle, which is the key dramatic device driving the story, had climaxed at the end of season one in a disappointingly limp stand-off followed by a dull heart-to-heart and a half-baked fight.\n\nIt put the show into intensive care, which is where Villanelle soon fetches up while Eve heads back to London to try to fix her marriage and find a new job.\n\nVillanelle, still in her pyjamas, leaves hospital sooner than she should after being treated for her injuries\n\nThe quality of the acting, our investment in the characters, and some quickly laid new plotlines are enough to entice you to watch the second 40-minute episode.\n\nAt which point Killing Eve returns gloriously to form, with a funny, clever script that starts to rebuild the sexual tension between agent and assassin. The two remain infatuated with each other but now there is some added spice.\n\nVillanelle has competition for Eve's attentions and it ain't coming from Niko. That's the hook, not the mysterious baddies The Twelve, who any one of the protagonists could belong to for all we know - or care. Needless to say, Villanelle still murders people with the regularity and sensitivity of an automated phone call asking if you've been in a car crash, but the killings are a side show.\n\nSean Delaney plays Kenny Stowton, who is a loyal part of Eve's team, and Carolyn's son\n\nThe real drama is in the relationships between the players: Carolyn and her son Kenny (Sean Delaney). Eve and Niko. Villanelle and her handlers. And, of course, between Eve and Villanelle.\n\nWill they get it together? Will one kill the other? Can a cold-blooded murderer become a vulnerable, compassionate human being?\n\nIn other words, the same issues that kept us on tenterhooks in season one.\n\nWill season two be better and succeed in delivering its punchline? You can find out later on Saturday when the entire series drops on the BBC iPlayer.\n\nI've seen the first four and my hopes are high. Killing Eve is top quality television. And not just from a British standpoint, it ranks with the very best shows coming out of Hollywood. It's no surprise the head of Netflix has cited it as the one title he truly covets.\n\nThat it is superbly made is a given in these golden days of box office box sets.\n\nBut that's not what makes it stand out; it is not the reason that Killing Eve will sit alongside Friends and Breaking Bad as an all-time TV classic. It is the balance it strikes between bone-dry humour reminiscent of the best of early James Bond, and an exploration of identity, sexuality, and isolation in the second decade of the 21st Century.\n\nFiona Shaw, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jodie Comer all won Baftas for Killing Eve\n\nFor this, much of the credit must go to Luke Jennings, the Observer's dance critic. For Villanelle is his creation. He originally self-published the story as a series of online novellas before it was picked up by a canny TV producer. Once it had been commissioned for telly Jennings had his work cut out to do his day job while collaborating with Waller-Bridge on the television scripts, \"I felt like Stalin, planning murder all day and watching Swan Lake in the evening,\" he wrote in the Observer last year.\n\nHis background in ballet provides an interesting insight into his creation.\n\nThe juxtaposition between beauty and the beast is what makes Killing Eve so compelling. As does the not-always merry dance he takes us on. You could argue that Jennings has written the most brilliant, exquisitely choreographed, blood-soaked pas de deux.", "Grammy-winning American singer Dr John has died at the age of 77 after suffering a heart attack.\n\nThe New Orleans-born musician died on Thursday, according to a message posted on his official Twitter account.\n\nThe Rock and Roll Hall of Fame singer combined the genres of blues, pop, jazz, boogie woogie and rock and roll.\n\nA statement said: \"Towards the break of day June 6, iconic music legend Malcolm John Rebennack, Jr, known as Dr John, passed away of a heart attack.\"\n\nThe musician \"created a unique blend of music which carried his hometown, New Orleans, at its heart, as it was always in his heart,\" it continued.\n\n\"The family thanks all whom shared his unique musical journey & requests privacy at this time.

Among those studying maths, 73% are from state schools, but for classics it is only 29%.\n\nThis year's intake saw 18.3% of places taken by ethnic minority students - the highest proportion on record.\n\nApplications from ethnic minority students have been increasing rapidly - up by almost half in four years.\n\nThe university highlights the rise in applications and admissions for Asian students. Among the UK intake, 8.3% are from an Asian background, compared with 2.6% for black African and Caribbean students.\n\nLouise Richardson says the number of students from deprived backgrounds is increasing\n\nDespite the numbers of black students rising, it means that over three years there was only one UK black student admitted for geography, two for physics and none for biological sciences.\n\nIn 12 of Oxford's colleges, fewer than five black students had been recruited over three years. No college had recruited fewer than 12 Asian students or 120 white students across this time.\n\nThe proportion of deprived pupils has moved upwards, with 11.3% of places going to students classified as facing socio-economic disadvantage.\n\nProf Richardson, the university's vice-chancellor, said the intake still \"reflects the deep inequalities in our society along socio-economic, regional and ethnic lines\".\n\nBut she said \"even the most cynical observer\" would have to recognise that progress was being made.\n\n\"The numbers are low, the pace is slow, but the trajectory is clear - the number of students admitted to Oxford from deprived backgrounds is steadily increasing,\" said Prof Richardson.", "Women who experience domestic abuse are three times more likely to develop a serious mental illness, Birmingham University research suggests.\n\nThey are also twice as likely to have had some form of mental illness already, the study in the British Journal of Psychiatry found.\n\nExperts said opportunities were being missed to detect abuse and support vulnerable women.\n\nGPs said they were highly trained to spot it, but it was often well-hidden.\n\nThe study was based on 18,547 women who had told their GP of domestic abuse they had experienced.\n\nThey were followed up over a number of years and compared with a group of more than 74,000 women of a similar age who had no experience of domestic abuse.\n\nDr Joht Singh Chandan, lead author and academic clinical fellow in public health at the University of Birmingham, said the burden of mental illness caused by domestic abuse in the UK could be much higher than previously thought.\n\n\"Considering how common domestic abuse is, it is important to understand how strongly the two are connected and consider whether there are possible opportunities to improve the lives of women affected by domestic abuse.\"\n\nOne woman who was abused by her partner is receiving help from Agenda, an organisation which supports women and girls at risk.\n\nShe told the BBC: \"The domestic abuse I experienced changed me profoundly as a person.\n\n\"I am generally sleep-deprived as a result of insomnia now. I seem to veer wildly between compulsive over- or under-eating.\n\n\"I'm much less trusting of others and try to keep people at a long arm's length which has sadly damaged countless friendships, many beyond repair.\"\n\nThe first time she went to mental health services with these issues, she said she wasn't believed.\n\nEventually, she was sectioned after being taken to A&E against her will.\n\nThe researchers' analysis, from 1995-2017, showed that nearly half of women who had gone to their family doctor with domestic abuse had a mental illness already diagnosed.\n\nAmong the rest, the authors found that domestic abuse survivors were twice as likely to develop anxiety and three times as likely to develop depression, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.\n\nThey were also twice as likely to need prescription medication, the study found.\n\nThis was the case even when other factors, such as how much alcohol they drank, whether they smoked and their BMI (body mass index) - which are also linked to mental illness - were taken into account.\n\nAccording to official crime figures, around one in four women experiences domestic abuse during her lifetime.\n\nBut this study, based on GP records, found that fewer than one in 100 women are affected, suggesting some degree of under-reporting.\n\nThe researchers say more could be done by the police to flag up domestic abuse to healthcare professionals.\n\nAnd they call for better support for women with a background of domestic abuse to prevent mental illnesses developing.\n\nDr Beena Rajkumar, from the Royal College of Psychiatrists, said domestic abuse had a \"devastating impact\" on mental health.\n\n\"Screening and recording of domestic abuse needs to be a clear priority for public services so that more effective interventions for this group of vulnerable women can urgently be put in place.\"\n\nProf Louise Howard, from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King's College London, said the study was observational and could not provide conclusive evidence on causes - but she said it still contained an important message.\n\n\"Domestic violence and abuse is a serious public health and public mental health problem.\n\n\"Health practitioners who see women with mental health problems in primary or secondary care therefore need to be trained how to ask routinely about domestic violence and abuse, and how to safely respond.\"\n\nProf Helen Stokes-Lampard, chair of the Royal College of GPs, said training for all GPs on adult and child safeguarding was mandatory.\n\nAnd she added: \"We understand how difficult it can be to seek help for domestic abuse, but it's vital that patients don't suffer in silence - and that they see the GP, and other members of the GP team, as people they can trust and talk to.\"\n• None Agenda - alliance for women and girls at risk The BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Coverage: Watch on BBC One Scotland & BBC Alba, listen on BBC Radio Scotland, live text commentary on the BBC Sport website & app.\n\nBBC Scotland asked veteran midfielder Jo Love to reveal all about the first Scotland squad to compete at a World Cup in 21 years and here's her verdict...\n• None Shelley Kerr as her family, friends & colleagues see her\n\nShe's a bit of a faffer. She's so intelligent but takes forever to do anything. She's always last out of the changing room, she'll be painting her nails or something despite the fact she's got gloves on all the time and is getting her fingers bashed up. We're quite close and I get to see the best and worst of her but she's always quite placid.\n\nShe's very quiet. She keeps in the background and she's still young but she's grown so much since she first came into the squad.\n\nShe's a bit of an angel. So caring. I don't think she believes in herself enough and she's always looking out for everyone else rather than focusing on herself. She's been in this squad for a long time and been patient but never even said one bad word despite being effectively second choice for so long. Patience of a saint.\n\nHer and Jen [Beattie] are vegans, so we like to rip them a bit for that. She's funny. Her, Caroline [Weir] and Claire [Emslie] have got their own wee group and are constantly giggling at everything.\n\nIt would be a shame if all I could say is that she is a vegan, so I'll say she's a gentle giant. She goes about her business and goes home and you don't really see or hear much from her apart from that.\n\nOh my, her American accent... We like to watch videos as a squad of her doing interviews over there and trying to make out what she's saying. It's unreal sometimes, but she's a great leader and has taken on so much more responsibility than she had to.\n\nDozy Nicola. So clumsy, but just dozy. She comes out with things and you're like, 'what?!' She is in a wee world of her own sometimes. At City, if she's away with the fairies, you can tell if it's one of the days the second you see her; just the way she's acting. She'll deny it but we can all see it.\n\nI was standing with head coach Shelley Kerr at training the other day and Sophie clattered someone and Shelley said, 'you know she's German' - she would tackle her granny. She split her head once and it was wide open, she needed like 20 stitches, but she's hard as nails. Off the pitch, though, she's so quiet and lovely. On it, she'd tackle you by the neck.\n\nFancies herself as a bit of a joker. Actually really quite intelligent and tells jokes that are probably a bit advanced for some of us. She's just daft.\n\nYou get into trouble if you're her room-mate and don't stick to the rules. She's in with Hayley [Lauder] but she's one of my best friends. We go on holiday together with Hayley usually. We don't go back to work at the end of July so we're hoping to go away somewhere. She goes under the radar but is keeping an eye on everything that happens. Definitely in charge.\n\nReally shy but a genuinely lovely girl. Wouldn't say a bad word about anyone. Likes to look all stunning on Instagram. She's probably our poster girl.\n\nLizzie's cakes - they're so good, she's got an Instagram for them. Very talented. Mind you, our apartment when we were in Spain beat hers in a cake-making competition. We made a marble cake and it was magnificent.\n\nI love her. It's black or white with Crichto - she says things as they are. When we're in the room, we have a good laugh and she knows how to be a bit crazy but she's very down to earth and brings us all back down with a bump. You don't really notice her in the room. She goes to sleep with the TV on, doesn't snore, quite tidy, no complaints. We've been room-mates for the past year or so now.\n\nI don't know if anyone knows about Kim. Even us. She's so reserved. She had a barbecue in London for us once and that was the most I'd ever spoken to her because when she's with the squad, her and Jen [Beattie] are in the room with the candles on. Kim likes to bring a candle with her and a book to read.\n\nDo I have to do me? I think people will say I'm a pest because sometimes I'm quite outspoken and say things that I think are funny but probably aren't. They'll probably say I've been here too long and should retire. But I'm not ready to chuck it yet. I'll just keep turning up anyway...\n\nAnother one who is completely different off the pitch. She's so laid back. She's the smallest in the squad, although Kim [Little] and Erin [Cuthbert] were fighting in the group chat about who was the second smallest...\n\nShe is pure sassy, which is a good thing by the way. She likes her nails, makeup, eyebrows, teeth, the whole lot to be done right. I always say to her, 'look good, feel good, Cacks' and she agrees with that.\n\nShe's forever falling over. She's always on her bum. She's crazy but in a great way. I've played with her for a long time and she's always just so full of energy, bouncing about and can't keep still. She has this habit of saying little Australian phrases - 'Skippy, get out of the water' and 'You're a fish, not a kangaroo' but those are the only two she can say in an Australian accent. It just ends up sounding like Corsie's American...\n\nFluent in Italian, which impresses me. I'd always like her to talk it around the place but she doesn't. She's really shy, I think, but I don't really know why she is because she's got loads to shout about.\n\nWee Ez, my fave. I'm her Auntie Jo. She's not a diva. She's confident without being cocky. The girl knows what she wants and goes out and smashes it. I've known her since she used to kick the ball around at half-time during Scotland games as a wee mascot. She's kind of a wee old woman because her chat sometimes is unbelievable and she likes cups of tea and sleeping. She'll tell you she's sophisticated but you don't get sophisticated people from Irvine.\n\nTrying to pin her down is impossible. She's constantly buzzing, constantly speaking, she's like one of those wind-up toys that you just let go. Maybe over the top at times, but she just loves life and being here.\n\nShe gave a wee rendition of happy birthday to Hayley [Lauder] today on the bus over the microphone. She said she was trying to do sexy singing but basically she was just whispering into the microphone. She likes to be centre of attention and will literally do anything for a laugh. She's in charge of the speaker - the DJ - although Lee [Alexander] has taken that on a bit recently. Someone said to her the other day, 'you're so annoying, but I love you so much', and that sums it up.\n\nShe's in charge of the fines. We started quite strict with the fines and bought a speaker with them, then it fell away after that. She is a top, top professional, though. I don't think she's got any body fat; she's a machine. But she can be so moody at times if things don't go her way. I went out to Sweden to visit her and they got beat that day and she refused to eat or talk or come out. I had to sit watching her moping. In the main, though, she's pretty laid back.", "The WHO estimates one in 25 people has at least one STI\n\nOne million new sexually transmitted infections (STIs) occur every single day, the World Health Organization has estimated.\n\nThat means more than 376 million new cases annually of four infections - chlamydia, gonorrhoea, trichomoniasis, and syphilis.\n\nThe WHO highlights a lack of progress in stopping the spread of STIs, and says its figures are a \"wake-up call\".\n\nExperts are particularly concerned about the rise in drug-resistant STIs.\n\nThe WHO regularly evaluates the global impact of the four common sexually transmitted infections.\n\nIt looks at published research and collects reports from its workers in countries around the world.\n\nCompared with its last analysis in 2012, the WHO reports \"no substantive decline\" in the rates of new or existing infections.\n\nIt suggests around one in 25 people globally has at least one of these four STIs, with some experiencing multiple infections at the same time.\n\nThe figures suggest that among people aged 15-49 in 2016 there were:\n\nTrichomoniasis is caused by infection by a parasite during sex. Chlamydia, syphilis and gonorrhoea are bacterial infections.\n\nSTI symptoms can include discharge, pain urinating and bleeding between periods. However, many cases have no symptoms.\n\nSerious complications can include pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility in women from chlamydia and gonorrhoea, and cardiovascular and neurological disease from syphilis.\n\nIf a woman contracts an STI when she's pregnant, it can lead to stillbirth, premature birth, low birth-weight and health problems for the baby including pneumonia, blindness and congenital deformities.\n\nDr Peter Salama, of the WHO, said: \"We're seeing a concerning lack of progress in stopping the spread of sexually transmitted infections worldwide.\n\n\"This is a wake-up call for a concerted effort to ensure everyone, everywhere can access the services they need to prevent and treat these debilitating diseases.\"\n\nPractising safe sex, particularly through condom use, and better access to testing are both crucial, the WHO says.\n\nIn terms of treatment, bacterial STIs can be treated and cured with widely available medications.\n\nBut syphilis treatment has been made more difficult because of a shortage in the specific kind of penicillin needed, and there has been an increase in cases of so-called \"super-gonorrhoea\" which is almost impossible to treat.\n\nDr Tim Jinks, head of Wellcome's Drug Resistant Infection programme, said: \"Untreatable cases of gonorrhoea are harbingers of a wider crisis, where common infections are harder and harder to treat.\n\n\"We urgently need to reduce the spread of these infections and invest in new antibiotics and treatments to replace those that no longer work.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "\"He brought out a knife and lunged at me,\" said Burhan, a teenager who came to the UK seeking safety.\n\nBurhan - not his real name - arrived in the UK in the back of a lorry, aged 16.\n\nBut authorities did not believe he was a child and instead placed him into the adult system, where he says he was attacked.\n\nHe is one of 137 child asylum seekers - identified by Newsnight - that have been wrongly classified as adults.\n\nBetween January 2018 and March 2019, these children were sent into adult accommodation, only for authorities to later accept they had been telling the truth about their age.\n\nUsing the Freedom of Information act, Newsnight identified 26 cases in Derby, and 29 in Cardiff. Another nine were identified in Birmingham, 56 in Liverpool, eight in Croydon, seven in Wakefield and two in Glasgow.\n\nThese cities are the UK's seven regional hubs for processing asylum seekers.\n\nBurhan - whose identity Newsnight is protecting - is from a troubled area of the Middle East.\n\n\"I was in the lorry for three days. I had no food and only a little water, which ran out quickly,\" he said.\n\n\"When I got off the lorry, I went to a petrol station and asked for the police.\"\n\nBurhan was originally treated as a child, but then social services visited him to say they believed he was in fact 20, not 16.\n\n\"I said 'no - you're wrong',\" Burhan recalled. \"They said if you don't go, we will call the police and the police will take you by force.\n\n\"I felt so powerless because no matter how many times I explained to them, they didn't want to believe me.\"\n\nClassed as an adult asylum seeker, he was sent to live in a room in a house with other asylum seekers, older than him.\n\nIt was there, Burhan said, an older man kicked his bedroom door down and attacked him.\n\n\"He had a plate in his hand and he smashed it on my head,\" he said. \"My eyesight was blurry and I couldn't see. He brought out a knife… he lunged at me, but I managed to avoid it and ran away.\n\n\"I was very scared and I was shivering. I ran away with no clothes on, not even shoes. I only came back after the police had arrested him.\"\n\nIn 2018, almost 3,000 unaccompanied asylum seekers arrived in the UK claiming to be under 18. It's widely accepted that some will be adults posing as children.\n\nLast year, man who posed as a 15-year-old in Ipswich was thought to be as old as 30.\n\nIf asylum seekers are deemed to be children, they have more access to education and a better chance of being allowed to settle in the UK.\n\nAfter eight months, Burhan's case was reviewed by independent social care workers and it was judged that he was a child.\n\n\"When they said I was a child, it was mixed feelings. I was happy that finally somebody believed me but I was upset that they wasted my time and they made me feel terrible,\" Burhan said.\n\nHe is now learning English at college and is staying in appropriate accommodation.\n\nLabour Peer and former refugee Lord Dubs told Newsnight that cases such as Burhan's, when the Home Office does not believe someone is a child, are the \"harshest\".\n\n\"This is not helped by the fact that refugees have often been scrutinised by the media for looking older,\" he added.\n\n\"We must not forget that these people have been on terrific journeys, and that they therefore probably look older given what they have endured.\"\n\nIn May, a case was brought before the Court of Appeal and judges ruled the process by which age was assessed was unlawful.\n\nNow, anyone appearing under the age of 25 will be referred to specialist local authority age assessors.\n\nThe Home Office said it was \"disappointed\" by this judgement.\n\n\"We take our duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children in the asylum and immigration system very seriously. However, age assessment is an extremely difficult area of work and is not an exact science,\" a Home Office spokesman said.\n\n\"Our approach seeks to strike an important but sensitive balance between ensuring that children who claim asylum are appropriately supported whilst at the same time maintaining the integrity of the asylum system and preventing adults passing themselves off as children.\"\n\nYou can watch Newsnight on BBC Two weekdays at 22:30 or on iPlayer, subscribe to the programme on YouTube and follow it on Twitter.", "The person died in a fall while on An Teallach on Sunday\n\nA 70-year-old man has died after he slipped and fell during a walking trip to a mountain ridge.\n\nThe accident happened on An Teallach near Dundonnell in Wester Ross on Sunday afternoon.\n\nThe emergency services were alerted to the man's fall by another hillwalker at about 13:30.\n\nFourteen members of Dundonnell Mountain Rescue Team and Inverness Coastguard search and rescue helicopter were called to the scene.\n\nThe man's body was located by the rescue helicopter crew. Police said he had fallen while on Sgurr Fiona, one of An Teallach's two Munro summits.\n\nLast month, the Rev Johnny Paton, 60, a Church of Scotland minister from Mull, died in a fall on An Teallach.\n\nDundonnell Mountain Rescue Team leader Donald Macrae said: \"Our thoughts at this difficult time are very much with the family and friends of the deceased.\n\n\"I would like to take this opportunity to thank other hillwalkers who supported us along with the amazing efforts of our colleagues from the coastguard helicopter based in Inverness.\"\n\nMr Macrae added: \"Sadly, this is the second fatality we have been involved with on this mountain this year.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Boris Johnson's tax proposals would cost \"many billions\" and benefit the wealthy the most, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies.\n\nMr Johnson, the front-runner in the race to lead the Conservative Party, has outlined plans to raise the threshold for the higher rate of income tax to £80,000.\n\nThe IFS said only 8% of individuals would gain in the short run.\n\nChanges to national insurance would help lower earners, the IFS said.\n\n\"These are expensive pledges to cut tax [which] between them will cost many billions of pounds\", said Tom Waters, research economist at the IFS and co-author of the report.\n\n\"It is not clear that spending such sums on tax cuts is compatible with both ending austerity in public spending and prudent management of the public finances,\" he added.\n\nFollowing the financial crisis government spending was curtailed in order to reduce borrowing, but the government has recently signalled an easing of austerity.\n\nMr Johnson's campaign team did not respond to an approach for comment on the IFS report. But earlier this month he told the Telegraph he would fund the income tax cuts partly by using money that had been set aside by the Treasury for a possible no-deal Brexit.\n\n\"We should be raising thresholds of income tax so that we help the huge numbers that have been captured in the higher rate by fiscal drag,\" Mr Johnson said.\n\nHowever during the televised leadership debate he described the tax plan as \"an ambition\" rather than a fixed policy.\n\nOn Monday, in an interview with the BBC, Mr Johnson addressed questions over Britain's exit from the EU.\n\nThe IFS said raising the threshold for the higher rate of tax would take around two and half million people out of the top income tax bracket and cost about £9bn. Top earners would gain an average of nearly £2,500 a year, the IFS said.\n\nBut while in the short run only 8% of the population were set to benefit, more people would move into the £50,000 to £80,000 bracket as time went on and would enjoy a lower rate of tax as a result, it said.\n\nThe numbers of those falling into the higher tax bracket had \"crept up\" over time, so that there are currently more than four million higher rate taxpayers, compared with one and a half million 30 years ago, the IFS said.\n\nRaising the point at which workers start to pay national insurance contributions would help low-earning individuals, the IFS said, although it benefited higher earners as well.

We are not going to fail.\"\n\nHe said it was \"disgraceful\" the UK was still in the EU three years after it voted to leave, and exiting the EU would \"renew the national faith in democracy\".\n\nHe did not address questions about his private life in the column.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

saying it would destroy the Conservative Party - and demanded that Mr Johnson be clear whether he would do the same.\n\nHealth Secretary Matt Hancock, who withdrew from the leadership contest after coming sixth in the first ballot of the party's MPs, told BBC Breakfast Mr Johnson had the \"best chance\" of securing a new Brexit deal with the EU.\n\nMr Hancock said it was \"total nonsense\" to suggest Mr Johnson was not open to scrutiny, drawing attention to the various hustings he has taken part in.\n\n\"He's got the energy, he's got the support from right across the party, and I think that's why he's the right man for the job,\" Mr Hancock added.\n\nIn a separate development, defence minister Tobias Ellwood told the BBC's Panorama programme that \"a dozen or so\" Conservative MPs would support a vote of no confidence in the government to stop a no-deal Brexit.\n\nA no-deal exit would see the UK leave the customs union and single market overnight and start trading with the EU on World Trade Organisation rules.\n\nOpponents say it would cause huge disruption at the borders and be catastrophic to many firms reliant on trade with the continent.\n\nNext month around 160,000 Conservative Party members will choose the next leader of the Tory Party -

The uptake of the girls' vaccine in Scotland is about 90%.\n\nThe new report's co-author Kevin Pollock, of Glasgow Caledonian University, said extending the vaccination to boys could help reduce rates of head and neck cancer which has been increasing over the last 25 years, particularly among men.\n\nIn 1994, there were 100 cases in Scotland, but by 2015 this had more than tripled to 350.\n\nDr Pollock said alcohol and smoking had been linked to these cancers but added that a change in sexual behaviour could also have had an impact.\n\nHe welcomed Scottish government plans to extend the school HPV vaccination programme to cover boys as well as girls.\n\n\"Our latest data shows that 78% of people with head and neck cancers were men and that HPV was present in 60% of the cancers,\" he said.\n\n\"This means the vaccine may reduce some of these cancers in the long term in Scotland.\n\n\"Not only that, but when we looked at the deprivation status of these cases - much like cervical cancer - head and neck cancers are disproportionately experienced by more deprived individuals.\"\n\nThe findings follow April's report from Dr Pollock and academics from Strathclyde, Aberdeen and Edinburgh universities, which suggested routine vaccination of schoolgirls in Scotland with HPV had led to a dramatic reduction in cervical disease in later life.\n\nSince a UK-wide immunisation scheme for girls aged 12 and 13 was introduced a decade ago, researchers found a reduction of up to 90% of instances of pre-cancerous cells being discovered at smear tests among women aged 20.\n\nThe Falkirk businessman, who set up the charity after being diagnosed with oropharyngeal cancer caused by HPV, said: \"HPV is responsible globally for 5% of all cancers.\n\n\"What Dr Kevin Pollock's research highlights is both the importance and opportunity to end the destructive impacts HPV has on head and neck cancers.\n\n\"We welcome the findings in this research and recognise that it is going to be a useful tool to help educate the general public as to why a nationwide HPV vaccination programme will benefit and protect children's health in future years.\"\n\nThe Cancer Research UK-funded study involved experts from Glasgow Caledonian University (GCU), Glasgow and Strathclyde universities and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.

He wants to get on top of the bowlers and dominate the ball.\n\nSo you need to get the ball going across him early in his innings. You're looking to land the ball around middle and leg stump. Do that and you've always have a chance of nicking him off early. That's a plan a lot of teams around the world have used successfully against him.\n\nGet the ball angled and across the wicketkeeper and the slips are always in the game then. If you do get that line and you can get a bit of shape into him you've also got the chance of lbw.\n\nWhat's the plan if he gets going?\n\nHe is a big ego player, he loves to hit boundaries and dominate so once he gets in, you've got to dry him up and make him hit the ball where he doesn't want to. Bowl wide and full at him so he can only score through the offside between third man and extra cover.\n\nIf you try and bowl a line just outside off stump he can hit both sides of the pitch; he is very good at that and we know he cuts and pulls very well. So bowl as full as possible and make him hit through the offside, limit his scoring area.\n\nIf you can stifle him, make sure you're dominating and dictate where he can score his runs, then you have a chance of forcing an error and getting him out.", "Gerald Corrigan died weeks after being shot outside his Anglesey home\n\nFour people have been arrested after a 74-year-old was shot with a crossbow outside his home in Holyhead, Anglesey.\n\nGerald Corrigan suffered \"horrendous\" injuries on the morning of Good Friday, 19 April this year, and died nearly a month later.\n\nHe had been taken to Royal Stoke University Hospital, the major trauma centre serving north Wales.\n\nNorth Wales Police said inquiries to date indicate Mr Corrigan was deliberately targeted.\n\nA 38-year-old man from Bryngwran, Anglesey, was arrested on suspicion of his murder on Tuesday.\n\nA 48-year-old from Caergeiliog, also on Anglesey, and a 36-year-old from Bryngwran have also been arrested for conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit fraud.\n\nA 50-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of money laundering and fraud related offences.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "The fire brigade were called out to rescue people who had been stranded at the flooded Stirling Rugby Club\n\nFourteen people were rescued by boat from Stirling County Rugby Club after torrential thundery downpours affected the area.\n\nStirling fire and rescue service's water rescue unit was called out at about 20:45 on Monday.

which in turn are vulnerable to automation, it said.\n\nOn average, each additional robot installed in those lower-skilled regions could lead to nearly twice as many job losses as those in higher-skilled regions of the same country, exacerbating economic inequality and political polarisation, which is growing already, Oxford Economics said.\n\nWe've seen plenty of predictions that robots are about to put everyone, from factory workers to journalists, out of a job, with white collar work suddenly vulnerable to automation.\n\nBut this report presents a more nuanced view, stressing that the productivity benefits from automation should boost growth, meaning as many jobs are created as lost.\n\nAnd while it sees the robots moving out of the factories and into service industries, it's still in manufacturing that the report says they will have the most impact, particularly in China where armies of workers could be replaced by machines.\n\nWhere service jobs are under threat, they are in industries such as transport or construction rather than the law or journalism and it's lower-skilled people who may have moved from manufacturing who are vulnerable.\n\nThe challenge for governments is how to encourage the innovation that the robots promise while making sure they don't cause new divides in society.\n\nOxford Economics also found the more repetitive the job, the greater the risk of its being wiped out.\n\nJobs which require more compassion, creativity or social intelligence are more likely to continue to be carried out by humans \"for decades to come\", it said.\n\nThe firm called on policymakers, business leaders, workers, and teachers to think about how to develop workforce skills to adapt to growing automation.\n\nAbout 1.7 million manufacturing jobs have already been lost to robots since 2000, including 400,000 in Europe, 260,000 in the US, and 550,000 in China, it said.\n\nThe firm predicted that China will have the most manufacturing automation, with as many as 14 million industrial robots by 2030.\n\nIn the UK, several hundreds of thousands of jobs could be replaced, it added.\n\nHowever, if there was a 30% rise in robot installations worldwide, that would create $5 trillion in additional global GDP, it estimated.\n\nAt a global level, jobs will be created at the rate they are destroyed, it said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. \"Humans will always be needed\" -

when people receive unsolicited sexual images on their phone - and \"deepfake\" pornography, which is the practice of superimposing an individual's face on to pornographic photos or videos without consent.\n\nIt comes after a specific \"upskirting\" law was introduced for England and Wales after campaigners complained victims were left without access to justice through existing legislation.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMs Mortimer, manager of the Revenge Porn helpline, said she would \"strongly encourage a move to make the disclosure of private images a sexual offence, guaranteeing victims anonymity and giving the necessary reassurance to come forward and make formal complaints\".\n\n\"We would also like to see threats to share intimate images made a specific offence, the inclusion of manipulated images and images in underwear in the definition and the removal of the intention in order to cause distress,\" she added.\n\nAbout 4,400 people have contacted the helpline seeking support and advice since it opened in 2015.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Boris Johnson on Brexit, privacy and his character\n\nBoris Johnson has admitted he would need EU co-operation to avoid a hard Irish border or the possibility of crippling tariffs on trade in the event of a no-deal Brexit.\n\nIn an exclusive interview with the BBC, the favourite to be the next PM said: \"It's not just up to us.\"\n\nBut he said he did \"not believe for a moment\" the UK would leave without a deal, although he was willing to do so.\n\nAsked about a row he'd had with his partner, he said it was \"simply unfair\" to involve \"loved ones\" in the debate.\n\nReports of the argument on Friday with his girlfriend, Carrie Symonds, dominated headlines over the weekend after the police were called to their address in London.\n\nThe interview comes after Sky News said it would have to cancel a head-to-head debate on Tuesday between the two leadership contenders as Mr Johnson had \"so far declined\" to take part.\n\nWork and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd told Radio 4's Today programme she found Mr Johnson's decision to ignore live TV debates \"very odd\" and urged him \"to reconsider\".\n\nFollowing days of criticism that he has been avoiding media scrutiny, Mr Johnson has given a number of other interviews, including with LBC and Talk Radio.\n\nOn LBC, he was repeatedly challenged on his personal life and a photograph which showed him and his partner. Asked whether his campaign was behind the release of the picture, Mr Johnson refused to answer.\n\nHe told Talk Radio's political editor Ross Kempsell he would \"not rest\" until the UK had left the EU, insisting Brexit would happen on 31 October \"come what may... do or die\".\n\nMeanwhile, the other candidate, Jeremy Hunt has promised to boost defence spending by £15bn over the next five years if he becomes prime minister.\n\nIn his interview with BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg, Mr Johnson said the existing deal negotiated by Theresa May \"is dead\".\n\nHe insisted it was possible to broker a new deal with the EU before the end of October because the political landscape had changed in the UK and on the continent.\n\n\"I think actually that politics has changed so much since 29 March,\" he said, referring to the original Brexit deadline.\n\n\"I think on both sides of the Channel there's a really different understanding of what is needed.\"\n\nAt the moment, the UK is due to leave the EU on 31 October after the PM's Brexit deal was rejected three times by Parliament, and the EU has previously said the withdrawal agreement reached with the UK cannot be reopened.\n\nMr Johnson said he would be able to persuade Brussels to resolve the Irish border issue - a key sticking point - despite repeated warnings from EU leaders that that was impossible.\n\nHe said there were \"abundant, abundant technical fixes\" that could be made to avoid border checks.\n\nWhen challenged that these did not exist yet, Mr Johnson replied: \"Well, they do actually... in very large measure they do, you have trusted trader schemes, all sorts of schemes that you could put into place.\"\n\nBut, he admitted, there was \"no single magic bullet\" to solve the issue.\n\nMr Johnson's really controversial gamble is to say he could do a new trade deal with EU leaders before the end of October.\n\nAnd he says he would be able to do that before resolving the most controversial conundrum - how you fix the dilemma over the Irish border.\n\nHe clearly believes he has the political skill to pull that off. He and his supporters would say that is a plan.\n\nBut it is a plan that is full of ifs and buts - either heroic or foolhardy assumptions to imagine that EU leaders and Parliament would be ready to back his vision - and back it by Halloween - on an extremely tight deadline.\n\nThe political pressure is on, not just to get it done quickly, but done in a way that does not harm our relations with the rest of the world and the livelihoods of people living in this country.\n\nIn terms of the controversies over his personal life, it is absolutely clear even now - when he is on the threshold of No 10 - that Boris Johnson thinks there are questions he simply does not have to answer.\n\nAnd for a politician about whose character many people have their doubts, that is going to follow him around unless and until he is willing to give more.\n\nMr Johnson said if he was elected he would start new talks as soon as he reached Downing Street to discuss a free trade agreement.\n\nHe also said he hoped the EU would be willing to grant a period of time where the status quo was maintained for a deal to be finalised after Brexit.\n\nHe called this \"an implementation period\", but accepted this was not the same as the implementation period in the current draft treaty agreed with the EU.\n\nMr Johnson committed to passing new laws as soon as possible in order to guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in the UK.\n\nThe former foreign secretary also suggested EU leaders might change their attitude to renegotiation because they had Brexit Party MEPs they did not want in their Parliament, and wanted to get the £39bn that had been promised as part of the so-called divorce bill.\n\nAnd he said MPs could be more willing to back a revised deal because - after disappointing local and European elections last month - they realised both Labour and the Conservatives would face \"real danger of extinction\" if Brexit were to be stalled again.\n\nMr Johnson refused again to give more detail of what happened at his home in the early hours of Friday.\n\n\"I do not talk about stuff involving my family, my loved ones,\" he said.\n\n\"And there's a very good reason for that. That is that, if you do, you drag them into things that really is... not fair on them.\"\n\nInstead of his private life, he said the public actually want to know \"what is going on with this guy?\"\n\n\"Does he, when it comes to trust, when it comes to character, all those things, does he deliver what he says he's going to deliver?\"\n\nDespite widespread criticisms from his fellow Conservatives that he cannot be trusted, Mr Johnson said anyone questioning his character was \"talking absolute nonsense\".\n\nHe also refused to respond to accusations from rival Jeremy Hunt that he was being a \"coward\" for avoiding more head-to-head TV debates, promising that if elected he would \"govern from the centre right\" because the centre \"is where you win\".\n\nMs Rudd, who is supporting Mr Hunt, said Mr Johnson was making a mistake by shying away from the debates and said he needed to \"go further\" in explaining his Brexit plan.\n\n\"This is an incredibly difficult situation and Boris needs to explain how he will deal with both sides of the Conservative Party that have concerns and try and break the impasse with the European Union.\n\n\"Enthusiasm and optimism is not sufficient.\"\n\nResponding to claims that a dozen Tory MPs would be prepared to bring down a government heading to a no-deal Brexit, she said: \"I think that's about right. I think it's slightly less than that, but it's certainly more than two.\"\n\nCorrection 7th August 2019: An earlier version of this article referred to crippling tariffs on trade in the event of a no-deal Brexit and has been amended to make clear that Boris Johnson was asked about this as a possibility.", "The shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, has warned colleagues if they want to avoid a \"slow motion car crash\" they have to change policy on Brexit.\n\nSo far, Labour's shadow cabinet hasn't shifted its position on Brexit despite devoting two meetings to the topic.\n\nLabour wants the public to have a say via a general election - or if that's not possible, then the leadership says the option of a public vote to avoid no deal or a \"hard Tory Brexit\" is on the table.\n\nIn effect, that means a vote on any deal that is negotiated.\n\nThere had been a widespread expectation that the party would shift position towards offering not just a referendum on any deal - but that it would make explicit that Remain would be an option on the ballot paper and officially endorse Remain, while allowing MPs to dissent.\n\nBut this shift didn't happen on Tuesday.\n\nFollowing disastrous European election results - overshadowed only by the Conservatives' poorer performance - deputy leader Tom Watson called for Labour to become an avowedly Remain party.\n\nSignificantly, he now has support from the shadow chancellor John McDonnell - who is usually closer to Jeremy Corbyn.\n\nMr McDonnell told me on Monday he felt it was time for the issue to be put back to the people, and he would campaign for Remain if there were a further referendum.\n\nHe also cited Harold Wilson's 1970s government which called a referendum, officially backed remaining in the EU, but allowed any members, and indeed ministers, who wanted to leave to call for withdrawal.\n\nThere's been pressure too for the leadership to adopt this position from others on the Left - notably the group Another Europe Is Possible, which is supported by shadow minister Clive Lewis and Momentum's national organiser, Laura Parker.\n\nThey say the time for equivocation and hesitation is over.\n\nAt Tuesday's fractious shadow cabinet meeting I'm told Tom Watson and shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry pushed for \"decisive action\" - the latter saying \"this is about leadership\" - and John McDonnell was certainly under the impression that a decision was supposed to have been taken today.\n\nAnother left-winger, Diane Abbott, talked about rising discontent amongst the membership.\n\nBut in effect the decision to - at least - delay a policy shift was taken yesterday when unions affiliated to Labour met Jeremy Corbyn but came to no definitive conclusion on Brexit policy.\n\nBoth Unite and the CWU don't want to adopt a \"Referendum and Remain\" stance, partly for fear of alienating Labour Leave voters.\n\nSome in the shadow cabinet agree - and party chairman Ian Lavery and shadow education secretary Angela Rayner expressed concerns about shifting position today.\n\nSo there will now be further consultation: first this week with members of Labour's ruling national executive - then with the unions.\n\nTheir general secretaries will meet again on 8 July.\n\nI am told that John McDonnell believes it's vital that a decision isn't delayed beyond this date as he and others want any Brexit policy to be clear well before a new prime minister is installed on 24 July.\n\nPhil Wilson - one of the Labour MPs behind a failed Commons amendment on a so-called People's Vote - said: \"Labour members and Labour MPs expect our party to have a clear policy that reflects our values.\n\n\"Instead, we have to listen to muddle, confusion and the sound of the can being kicked listlessly down a never-ending road.\"\n\nHis colleague Neil Coyle, who backs another public vote, had a union general secretary in his sights. He suggested the Labour leadership wouldn't shift position unless Len McCluskey of Unite would shift.\n\nBut the 26 Labour MPs - mostly, though not exclusively, from Leave areas - who signed a letter to Jeremy Corbyn last week warning against a Remain position and a \"toxic further referendum - will be pleased that pressure to move quickly has been resisted.", "People found guilty of the worst cases of animal cruelty will face up to five years in prison under a new law proposed for England and Wales.\n\nA Parliamentary bill from Environment Secretary Michael Gove raises the maximum term from six months.\n\nThe harshest sentences would be for dog fighting, abuse of puppies and kittens, or gross neglect of farm animals.\n\nThe bill complements the so-called Finn's Law, which provides more protection for service dogs and horses.\n\nCourts have indicated they wanted to hand down longer sentences in recent years but they were not available.\n\nThe new Animal Welfare (Sentencing) Bill has backing from welfare groups, and more than 70% of people supported plans for tougher prison sentences in a public consultation last year.\n\nMr Gove said: \"There is no place in this country for animal cruelty. That is why I want to make sure that those who abuse animals are met with the full force of the law.\"\n\nHe said the new law would bring in some of the toughest punishments in Europe for animal cruelty.\n\nMinisters say the bill builds on other government action to protect animals, including plans to ban third-party puppy and kitten sales and a ban on wild animals in circuses.\n\nClaire Horton, chief executive of Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, said the bill was a \"landmark achievement\" and would make a \"profound difference\".\n\n\"We, and many other rescue centres, see shocking cases of cruelty and neglect come through our gates and there are many more animals that are dumped and don't even make it off the streets,\" she said.\n\nAppearing on ITV's Britain's Got Talent, PC Wardell described Finn as a \"lovely, lovely lad\"\n\nFinn's Law, which passed into legislation earlier this month through the Animal Welfare (Service Animals) Act, also carries a maximum sentence of five years imprisonment.\n\nThe law is named after German shepherd Finn who was stabbed and seriously hurt as he protected his handler - PC Dave Wardell - from an attack in 2016.\n\nFollowing the attack, PC Wardell began campaigning for a law change to make it harder for people who harm service animals to claim they were acting in self-defence.\n\nTo raise awareness, the pair took part in Britain's Got Talent, reaching the final of the ITV variety show with a magic act that moved the judges to tears.\n\n\"This law is the only reason I put myself on stage in front of nine million people,\" said PC Wardell, who is still a serving officer.", "Peter Colwell was killed instantly when the shotgun went off\n\nA gamekeeper has been convicted of killing a teenager who was accidentally shot with a gun in a car.\n\nPeter Colwell, 18, died in the car park of the Ship Inn, Llanbedrog, near Pwllheli in Gwynedd in February 2017.\n\nBen Wilson, 29, of Ely, Cambridgeshire, who owned the shotgun, had denied gross negligence manslaughter.\n\nBen Fitzsimons, 23, of Nanhoron, Pwllheli, was cleared of the same charge by a jury at Caernarfon Crown Court.\n\nAt an earlier trial, Fitzsimons was found guilty of possessing a loaded shotgun in a public place - Wilson pleaded guilty to the same charge.\n\nMr Colwell had been out with Fitzsimons and Wilson and two other men drinking in several pubs on the day he died.\n\nThe court heard Wilson's loaded shotgun was being stored in the footwell of a Land Rover, with the muzzle pointing towards the rear of the vehicle.\n\nThe shooting happened in the car park of the Ship Inn at Llanbedrog, Gwynedd\n\nThe gun was accidentally discharged by Fitzsimons after he and Mr Colwell were waiting for Wilson to return to the car, which was parked at the Ship Inn.\n\nGiving evidence earlier in the trial, Fitzsimons, who also worked as a gamekeeper, told the court he checked the gun when he got into the car at a previous pub as he knew there were people in the back seat.\n\nHe removed one cartridge from the gun and \"racked\" it (tested the semi-automatic sliding mechanism) twice more and, as no further cartridges were ejected, believed the weapon to be safe.\n\nHe said it was not his weapon and not his responsibility, but agreed he must have set off the gun - but had no recollection of how that happened.\n\nWilson told the court he had left the vehicle as the others got in as he needed to go to the toilet, but rushed back when he heard a loud bang.\n\nBoth men will be sentenced on Thursday and Judge Rhys Rowlands told them: \"I will grant you bail, but you shouldn't read anything into that.

Jean Carroll was \"totally lying\" about the alleged attack in a New York department store.\n\n\"I'll say it with great respect: Number one, she's not my type. Number two, it never happened. It never happened, OK?\" Mr Trump told The Hill.\n\nMs Carroll, 75, made the allegations in the New York magazine last Friday.\n\nIn follow-up interviews with CNN and MSNBC, the Elle columnist said she would consider pressing charges against Mr Trump.\n\nMs Carroll is the 16th woman to accuse Mr Trump of sexual misconduct. Mr Trump has denied all allegations against him.\n\nShe says the attack allegedly happened at a Bergdorf Goodman store in Manhattan in late 1995 or early 1996, when the pair bumped into each other while shopping.\n\nThe former Apprentice star and real estate magnate allegedly asked her for advice when buying lingerie for another woman and jokingly asked her to model it for him.\n\nIn the changing rooms, she said Mr Trump lunged at her, pinned her against a wall and forced himself on her.\n\nMs Carroll, whose \"Ask E. Jean\" advice column has appeared in Elle magazine since 1993, claims she managed to push him off after a \"colossal struggle\".\n\nAt this point it's hard to keep track of the total number of women who have come forward to accuse Donald Trump of sexual improprieties ranging from unwanted touching to assault\n\nThe response from the president, however, is easy to remember because it's almost always the same: The women are lying. He doesn't recall ever meeting them. They're in it for the money and attention. Or, as in this case, they're not his \"type\".\n\nAs the allegations mount, these defences become more difficult to make - complicated further by the Access Hollywood recording of Mr Trump boasting about kissing and groping women without their consent.\n\nOf course, Mr Trump won the presidency after many of these women had already come forward and the Access Hollywood tape was public. Stories about Mr Trump's past behaviour are, as the old political saying goes, \"baked into the cake\".\n\nWithout conclusive evidence of the alleged assault, E Jean Carroll's account is unlikely to change the political dynamic heading into the next election. Those who dislike the president will vote against him. Those who support him - or tolerate him because of his conservative policies - will stick by him.\n\nSpeaking to The Hill from the White House on Monday, Mr Trump staunchly dismissed the allegations due to appear in Ms Carroll's forthcoming book, What Do We Need Men For? A Modest Proposal.\n\nHe denied even knowing Ms Carroll despite being pictured with her in New York magazine alongside details of her allegations.\n\n\"She is — it's just a terrible thing that people can make statements like that,\" he said.\n\nIt is his third denial since Ms Carroll went public, with Mr Trump previously accusing her of \"trying to sell a new book\" and \"peddling fake news\".\n\nIn response to Mr Trump's latest denial and \"not my type\" comment, Ms Carroll told CNN: \"I love that I'm not his type.\"\n\nIn 2016, Mr Trump made similar remarks about another accuser, Jessica Leeds, who alleges he groped her on an aeroplane in the 1980s.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Why are governments taking so long to take action on climate change?\n\nAmong those coming in for criticism are Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro, for opening up the rainforest to mining, and \"weakening\" environmental protections.\n\nUS President Donald Trump also comes under fire – for placing \"former lobbyists in oversight roles\", \"actively silencing and obfuscating climate science\", and also rolling back environmental protections.\n\nYet Mr Alston's scorn is not only for politicians, but also for the UN Human Rights Council to which he submitted the report.\n\n\"The Human Rights Council can no longer afford to rely only on the time-honoured techniques of organizing expert panels, calling for reports that lead nowhere, urging others to do more but doing little itself, and adopting wide-ranging but inconclusive and highly aspirational resolutions,\" he wrote.\n\nInstead, it must commission an urgent expert study on the possible options available to avert disaster, and \"propose and monitor specific actions\", Mr Alston said.\n\nThere may also be wider societal implications.\n\nThe International Organisation for Migration warned in a 2014 report that estimates for migration as a result of climate change vary wildly – from about 25 million to one billion people by 2050.\n\nMr Alston's report contains one estimate of 140 million displaced people in Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America alone.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Prior to his visit, residents wrote a letter complaining that authorities had not acknowledged the real scale of this \"serious situation\".\n\n\"Most months of the year our beaches have lost the crystalline colour of their waters and their shades of blue and turquoise green; sea grass and fish die because of the lack of light and oxygen, the turtles and the coral reef are also affected,\" they said, according to Turquesa News website (in Spanish).\n\n\"It produces an acid gas with a rotten egg smell [when it decomposes] that can be harmful to human health.\"\n\nDespite downplaying the issue - which is likely to affect the region's tourism - Mr López Obrador said the government was working to address the issue and pledged \"all the resources that are needed\".\n\nRafael Ojeda, head of the Mexican Navy, said authorities would spend $2.7m (£2.1m) to build four boats designed to remove seaweed as well as new barriers to retain it.\n\nThe infestation has worsened every year since it was first reported, in 2014. Cleaning up the beaches this year will cost $36.7m, according to the Cancún-Puerto Morelos hotels association.\n\nLast month, the Quintana Roo government declared a state of emergency over the issue, describing it an \"imminent natural disaster\".

The star says both her master tapes and their back-ups were stored in the vault\n\nSheryl Crow says the original tapes of albums including Tuesday Night Music Club and The Globe Sessions went up in flames in a fire at Universal Studios.\n\nThe singer told the BBC \"all her masters\" were destroyed when an archive in Los Angeles burnt down in 2008.\n\nShe only discovered the loss this month, after her name was mentioned in a New York Times report that uncovered the extent of the damage.\n\n\"It absolutely grieves me,\" said Crow. \"It feels a little apocalyptic.\n\n\"I can't understand, first and foremost, how you could store anything in a vault that didn't have sprinklers.\n\n\"And secondly, I can't understand how you could make safeties [back-up copies] and have them in the same vault. I mean, what's the point?\n\n\"And thirdly, I can't understand how it's been 11 years,\" she added. \"I mean, I don't understand the cover-up.\"\n\nCrow, who had seven US top 10 albums between 1995 and 2008, is the first artist to confirm the loss of their recordings since the New York Times' investigation was published two weeks ago.\n\nIt detailed how the fire, which was started by overnight maintenance work, had destroyed thousands of master tapes - the original recordings from which albums and singles are made - by some of the most famous names in music history, from Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Chuck Berry to Janet Jackson, Nirvana and Eminem.\n\nIt feels a little apocalyptic. It feels like we're slowly erasing things that matter.\n\nAlthough the fire was widely reported at the time, Universal Music downplayed the damage to its archives, saying many of the affected tapes had duplicates in separate storage facilities.\n\nThe company also disputed the New York Times' investigation, citing unspecified \"factual inaccuracies\" in the reporting.\n\nTheir head archivist, Patrick Kraus, later said the extent of the losses had been \"overstated\".\n\n\"Many of the masters that were highlighted [in the report] as destroyed, we actually have in our archives,\" he told Billboard magazine.\n\nBut Crow, whose biggest hits include All I Wanna Do and If It Makes You Happy, confirmed her tapes had perished, taking with them dozens of alternate takes, demos and unreleased songs.\n\n\"There are many songs on my masters that haven't come out,\" she said. \"My peace of mind in knowing I could come back someday and listen to them and mine those [sessions] for basement tapes and outtakes, are gone.\n\n\"But what grieves me more than any of that is the fact that Buddy Holly and Billie Holiday and Duke Ellington - all this important music has been erased.\n\n\"And it's not just the music, it's the dialogue between the music, it's the takes that didn't make it, it's the versions we'll never hear.\n\n\"It feels a little apocalyptic. Not to go down a weird path - but it feels like we're slowly erasing things that matter.\"\n\nA group of high-profile pop musicians are currently suing Universal Music for $100m (£78m) over the loss of their master recordings.\n\nThe case was filed last week in Los Angeles by the rock bands Soundgarden and Hole, singer-songwriter Steve Earle, the estate of Tupac Shakur and a former wife of Tom Petty - who accuse Universal of breaching its contracts with artists by failing to properly protect their tapes.\n\nThey are seeking class action status, which means other affected artists will be able to join the case at a later date.\n\nThis YouTube post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The law would begin to be enforced seven months from that date, although there have been reports firms could mount a legal challenge.\n\nAnti-vaping activists say firms deliberately target young people by offering flavoured products. Not only is more scientific investigation into the health impact needed, critics say, but vaping can encourage young people to switch to cigarettes.\n\nEarlier this year the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the national regulator, issued proposed guidelines giving companies until 2021 to apply to have their e-cigarette products evaluated.\n\nA deadline had initially been set for August 2018, but the agency later said more preparation time was needed.\n\nSan Francisco's City Attorney, Dennis Herrera, who campaigned for a ban, praised the move and said it was necessary because of an \"abdication of responsibility\" by the FDA in regulating e-cigarettes.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAccording to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of US teenagers who admitted using nicotine products rose about 36% last year, something it attributed to a growth in e-cigarette use.\n\nUnder federal law, the minimum age to buy tobacco products is 18 years, although in California and several other states it is 21.\n\nJuul previously said it supported cutting vaping among young people but only in conjunction with tougher measures to stop them accessing regular cigarettes.\n\nThe company's small device, just longer than a flash drive, has about 70% of the US vaping market.\n\nSan Francisco's ban would \"drive former adult smokers who successfully switched to vapor products back to deadly cigarettes\", said Juul spokesman Ted Kwong. It would also stop adult smokers switching and create a \"thriving black market\".\n\n\"We have already taken the most aggressive actions in the industry to keep our products out of the hands of those underage and are taking steps to do more.\"\n\nTraditional tobacco products will \"remain untouched by this legislation, even though they kill 40,000 Californians every year,\" he said.\n\nJuul, 35%-owned by Marlboro maker Altria Group, has already withdrawn popular flavours such as mango and cucumber from retail stores and closed its social media channels on Instagram and Facebook.", "Biffa has been convicted of breaking the law by sending household rubbish to China that was labelled as waste paper.\n\nInstead, the bundles included nappies, sanitary towels and condoms, according to the Environment Agency, which prosecuted the waste giant.\n\nThe waste management firm was found guilty in a three-week jury trial at London's Wood Green Crown Court.\n\nBiffa said it \"strongly contested\" the decision and was considering making an appeal.\n\nBut the Environment Agency said jurors did not accept Biffa's claim that the contaminated bundles were made up of waste paper.\n\nBiffa argued that its containers were regularly inspected by Chinese customs agents. It also said the firms buying the waste often inspected containers before they were shipped to make sure they contained 98.5% paper, which is the industry standard.\n\nIt has been illegal to send unsorted household waste to China since 2006.\n\nPaper can legally be sent to the country, but other heavily contaminated waste cannot.\n\nThe Environment Agency said it found \"everything from women's underwear and plastic bottles to metal pipes\" in a number of 25-tonne containers that were bound for China.\n\nGlass, plastics, electrical items and metal were also found inside seven of the containers that the agency inspected at the port of Felixstowe in Suffolk.\n\n\"Instead of waste paper, investigators discovered diverse discarded debris such as shoes, plastic bags, an umbrella, socks, hand towels, unused condoms, video tape, toiletries and electric cable,\" the Environment Agency said.\n\n\"The nappies and sanitary towels gave off a pungent 'vomit-like' smell when inspected by Environment Agency officers.\"\n\nBut Biffa said it supplied \"vital raw material\" to China to be recycled in an \"environmentally sound\" way.\n\nIt said the material met international standards and blamed the Environment Agency for failing to lay out what level of contamination it would consider acceptable.", "A woman has won an appeal against a court ruling that would have seen her mentally ill daughter forced to have an abortion.\n\nShe appealed a decision made last week granting permission for specialists to end the pregnancy.\n\nThree Court of Appeal judges in London upheld the appeal, overturning the previous decision.\n\nLord Justice McCombe, Lady Justice King and Lord Justice Peter Jackson will give reasons at a later date.\n\nThe judges were told the woman's daughter is in her 20s, is 22 weeks pregnant, and has the mental age of a child aged between the age of six and nine.\n\nShe also has a \"moderately severe\" learning disorder and a mood disorder.\n\nAt a hearing in the Court of Protection last week, bosses at a hospital trust responsible for the pregnant woman's care asked Mrs Justice Lieven to let doctors end the pregnancy.\n\nThree specialists - an obstetrician and two psychiatrists - said they believed a termination was the best option.\n\nThey said there was a risk to the pregnant woman's psychiatric health if pregnancy continued and they feared her behaviour could pose a risk to a baby.\n\nBut her mother - who was against abortion - said she could care for the child.\n\nA social worker who worked with the pregnant woman, who lives in the London area, also said she should give birth, as did lawyers representing her.\n\nBut Mrs Justice Lieven ruled that on balance termination was the best option.\n\nShe said she had to make an \"enormous\" decision on the basis of what was in the pregnant woman's best interests.\n\nAt Monday's appeal hearing, barristers John McKendrick QC and Victoria Butler-Cole QC, successfully argued that ruling was wrong.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "\"In the event of a tiebreak, the exasperated presenter will flip a coin to decide the winner.\"\n\nIt's something Ken Bruce tells Radio 2 listeners every morning - but, for the first time ever, Popmaster actually did go down to a coin toss on Monday.\n\nAfter being tied on 30 points each, Rachel from Cambridgeshire and Tim from West Sussex wrongly answered successive questions in the quiz's tiebreak.\n\n\"Right, then,\" sighed Ken, \"the coin's out,\" before declaring Tim winner.\n\nFellow Radio 2 host Sara Cox declared it: \"The tie breaker that never ends.\"\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

An argument began between them. It was an argument that became heated and became heated pretty quickly.\"\n\nThe court heard that passenger Megan Fieberg witnessed Mr Pencille insult the deceased and shout: \"You touch me, you touch me and you see what happens at the next stop.\"\n\nThe jury heard that Mr Pomeroy responded: \"You shouldn't have humiliated me in front of my kid.\"\n\nThe prosecutor told the court that another witness recalled Mr Pencille saying \"leave me alone, you're racist\" and \"I'm not scared of you\".\n\nHowever, Mr Hallam told the jury that another passenger, Kayleigh Carter, said that she had not heard Mr Pomeroy make a racist remark.\n\nHe said: \"Her impression was that both men appeared to be taunting one another.\"\n\nThe prosecutor told jurors Ms Carter recalled Mr Pomeroy stating that he had \"never dealt with someone with special needs before,\" to which Mr Pencille allegedly responded: \"I'm hearing voices right now.\"\n\nShe then saw Mr Pencille appear to make a phone call and \"the words she recalled [hearing] were 'I'm going to kill this man',\" Mr Hallam said.\n\nRecords showed he had called Miss Mitchell, the court heard.\n\nMr Hallam said Ms Carter saw the defendant take a knife from his pocket and strike the first blow. He then described how Mr Pomeroy tried to defend himself but Mr Pencille kept stabbing him \"again and again and again\".\n\n\"It was a blow that cut through his jugular vein and carotid artery which are the vessels that take blood to the brain,\" he said.\n\nThe prosecutor said after the attack, Mr Pencille was picked up by 27-year-old Miss Mitchell, of Wilbury Road, Farnham.\n\nHe told the jury: \"She collected him and together they drove to the flat where she lived in Farnham, Surrey, then drove to the south coast.\n\n\"Mr Pencille cleaned himself up and changed his appearance. The two of them also engaged in research on the internet about what it was Mr Pencille had done.\"\n\nThe court heard Mr Pencille later called his mother and said: \"Something's happened, I've done something bad\". He then called his ex-partner and told her the same and that she would see it on the news.\n\nMr Pencille, of no fixed address, has admitted possessing a bladed article, the court heard.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Gordon Brown has warned the future of the union between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is \"more at risk\" than at any time in 300 years.\n\nThe ex-prime minister said the United Kingdom risked \"unravelling\" due to Brexit and the \"narrow nationalism\" of the Conservative and SNP governments.\n\nIn a speech in London, he urged the \"patriotic majority\" to speak up against their values being \"hijacked\".\n\nBrexit supporters have dismissed claims it could hasten Scottish independence.\n\nScotland voted overwhelmingly to stay in the EU in the 2016 referendum, as did Northern Ireland, while Wales and England voted to leave.\n\nBoris Johnson, the favourite to succeed Theresa May as Conservative leader and prime minister, has pledged to bring different parts of the UK together if he wins power and address the economic and political disparities which fuelled the Brexit vote.\n\nIn a BBC interview, he said he recognised that parts of the UK felt \"left behind\".\n\nHowever, he insisted that he would be prepared to take the UK out of the EU without a legally-binding agreement on the 31 October deadline.\n\nSpeaking to the Fabian Society, Mr Brown said such rhetoric was a \"recruiting sergeant\" for the SNP - whose leader Nicola Sturgeon has signalled there will be another independence vote in 2021 if the UK leaves the EU against Scotland's will.\n\nA no-deal exit, he argued, was an \"act of economic self-harm\" which Mr Johnson and Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage were determined to make a \"test of true patriotism\".\n\nLeaving without any mutually agreed basis for future co-operation would not only cause irreparable economic damage, Mr Brown said, but threaten the peace settlement in Northern Ireland and undermine the whole integrity of the union.\n\n\"Talking up no deal means renouncing the chance of a positive post-Brexit relationship with the continent and our major economic partners,\" he said.\n\n\"It is yet another example of an inward-looking, isolationist and dogmatic approach that has no economic logic and runs counter to our long-term national interest.\n\n\"And yet those who do not go down that road are accused of not being true patriots and of betraying Britain. Our patriotism has been hijacked by a narrow dogmatic nationalism.\"\n\nMr Brown played a key role in the No campaign in the 2014 Scottish independence referendum.\n\nCriticising Mr Johnson's record on and respect for Scottish devolution, he said the former mayor of London would be under pressure to \"play the English card\" at the next election to try and win a Conservative majority \"even at the cost of harming the union\".\n\nAmid signs that Brexit was eroding support for the union among Conservative members, he warned of a repeat of the 2015 election, when David Cameron repeatedly argued a minority Labour government could offer an independence referendum as its price for SNP support.\n\n\"It is right to warn of the SNP's obsession with independence,\" he said.\n\n\"It is right too for us to remind Labour that as a party of the union it can never and must never make a backdoor deal with the SNP.\"\n\nAs a first step in rebuilding \"trust\" with Leave voters, he called for a series of citizens' assemblies across the UK, modelled on those in the Republic of Ireland, to examine \"very real problems\" such as concerns over immigration, low pay and lack of new manufacturing jobs.\n\nHe also called for tougher laws to eradicate Islamophobia and anti-Semitism and more emphasis on teaching about community relations in schools.\n\nWith the very survival of the United Kingdom under threat, he called for \"new defenders\" of the union to make themselves heard and tackle the \"threat from these new nationalisms\".\n\n\"I believe the union is today more at risk than at any time in 300 years,\" he added.\n\nThe SNP's former deputy leader Stewart Hosie said a no-deal Brexit would be \"clearly contrary\" to Scotland's wishes.\n\nHe told Sky News that if Mr Johnson or another future PM \"ignored\" Scotland over Brexit, \"it leads us closer to independence\".", "Carcasses at the farms were left to rot for days, Animal Equality UK said\n\nChickens reared to supply major retailers are being kept in \"horrifying conditions\" on giant farms, an animal rights group has claimed.\n\nAnimal Equality UK said it uncovered \"extreme suffering\" at three Moy Park farms in Lincolnshire while carrying out a covert investigation.\n\nThe charity said carcasses were \"left to rot for days\".\n\nMoy Park, which supplies products to supermarkets including Sainsbury's and Tesco, said it was investigating.\n\nInvestigators for the charity said they visited the farms on multiple occasions between February and April this year, entering through open doors and carrying out covert filming at night.\n\nThey said many of the birds were found with severe leg injuries, with some unable to stand.\n\n\"These birds were clearly suffering and should have been culled before they reached this advanced state of suffering,\" the group said.\n\nFootage released by the charity also claims to show dead birds among the flocks at all three farms.\n\n\"Some of these carcasses had clearly been there for some time, bringing into question whether the required twice daily flock checks were indeed being carried out,\" it added.\n\nConditions at the farms were described as \"utterly dismal\"\n\nCampaigners said they also found an accumulation of faeces and many of the birds were panting and had reddened skin at the rear.\n\nAnimal Equality UK executive director Dr Toni Vernelli said the investigation found birds being kept in \"utterly dismal conditions\", with up to 30,000 birds to a shed.\n\nA spokesperson for Moy Park, which is one of the largest suppliers of poultry products in the UK, said: \"We have a zero-tolerance attitude toward anything that jeopardises the health and welfare of our birds and we are fully investigating these allegations.\n\n\"We have robust processes in place to carefully monitor the welfare conditions for our birds and we have regular independent audits, taking corrective action with our farming partners if required.\"\n\nIn a statement, Sainsbury's said: \"All our suppliers are expected to meet our high welfare standards and we are investigating this footage.\"\n\nA Tesco spokesperson said: \"We have strong procedures in place to ensure the welfare of the animals in our supply chain.\n\n\"We are working closely with our supplier to fully investigate this.\"\n\nAccording to the group, some birds had reddened skin at the rear while others were unable to stand\n\nAll three farms are certified by the Red Tractor farm-approval scheme, which requires produce to be \"traceable, safe and farmed with care\".\n\nMs Vernelli said: \"Images of distressed birds in giant double-decker sheds will be a shock to many consumers who buy British, Red Tractor-certified meat thinking they can trust its animal welfare standards.\n\n\"Yet the truth is, the unnatural conditions chickens are forced to endure in these vast sheds are utterly dismal.\"\n\nAccording to the charity, none of the farms had perches inside the sheds, violating Red Tractor's requirements.\n\nA spokesperson for Red Tractor said: \"Our own routine auditing of these farms had identified some breaches to our high standards, and we have been working with them to ensure they put the necessary processes in place for them to remain Red Tractor-certified.\"\n\nBreaches found at one of the farms have already been resolved, while the other two are still within their 28 days to fully comply, they added.\n\nFollow BBC East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

The five rhinos made the 6,000km journey in custom-made transport crates\n\n\"These animals were taken from Africa decades ago to display to the public [in European zoos] and now have a real conservation role in Rwanda,\" Mark Pilgrim, Chester Zoo's chief executive says proudly.\n\nHe is summing up the significance of the largest transportation of rhinos from Europe to Africa to ever happen.\n\nIt culminated on Monday as five zoo-born eastern black rhinos were released in the vast Akagera National Park.\n\nThe three females and two male rhinos, aged between two and nine years old, came from Flamingo Land in Yorkshire, the Czech Republic's Dvur Kralove safari park and Ree Park Safari in Denmark.\n\nThe rhinos were all transported from Czech safari park Dvur Kralove, but they have come from zoos in the UK, Denmark and the Czech Republic\n\nThe 6,000km (3,700 miles) journey began at Dvur Kralove - where the animals have been gathered to be prepared for the trip since late last year - and concluded as each animal stepped out of its custom-made transport crate and into a large, temporary enclosure in the 1,000 sq km park.\n\nThey will remain in the enclosure, known as a boma, for several months until vets and wildlife experts, who stay in a nearby camp, are happy that they have settled and are ready for life in the wild.\n\nMandela (left) came from Ree Safari Park and Olmoti (right) is from Flamingo Land. The other three rhinos, named Jasiri, Jasmina and Manny, were born in Dvur Kralove\n\nThe animals' journey to Akagera, via a flight from Prague to the Rwandan capital of Kigali, took around 30 hours. But the project to bring these animals back to Africa began years ago.\n\nThe European Association of Zoos and Aquaria has co-ordinated what Dr Pilgrim described as a huge \"rhino dating game\" and it is something he has been running.\n\n\"All the members signed up to move animals around, so we can match the most compatible pairs for breeding,\" he said.\n\n\"We have 25 [zoos and parks] that hold black rhinos and for the last 12 years, people have moved rhinos around the continent to make the breeding programme work.\"\n\nThis has been so successful that almost 10% of the entire global population of the critically endangered subspecies - the eastern black rhino - now reside in captivity in Europe; 94 animals out of an estimated 1,000 that remain in existence.\n\n\"The animals being released are the descendants of rhinos that - more than 40 years ago - were taken from East Africa and transported to Europe's zoos for display,\" explains Jan Stejskal, head of international programmes at Dvur Kralove. \"This is the perfect opportunity to take them back to their homeland.\"\n\nProbably the biggest concern when planning this release was to find a place where the animals would be safe. The threat of poaching remains, with the demand for rhino horn apparently shifting from its perceived medical value (it actually has none) to a demand for jewellery and other valuable \"trinkets\" carved from it.\n\nThis persistent threat has meant finding a national park with an armed security force and high tech anti-poaching solutions. Akagera, which is managed by the conservation organisation African Parks in partnership with the Rwandan government, fits the bill.\n\nThe translocation represents a significant moment for Rwanda's natural history. Rhinos have previously been wiped out twice in the country by poaching - once during the 1940s and 50s, when their horns were in demand to make dagger handles, then again in 2010.\n\nEastern black rhinos were brought back to Akagera, from South Africa, in 2017. But that reintroduction was tinged with tragedy when a conservationist named Krisztian Gyongyi, who was monitoring the animals in the park, was killed by one of the rhinos.\n\nThis carefully planned release of the five specifically selected zoo rhinos, the team hopes, will be a new chapter in Rwanda ecotourism.\n\nClare Akamanzi, chief executive officer of the Rwanda Development Board, said that today, poaching was \"almost non-existent in our four national parks\".\n\n\"We are confident that these rhinos will thrive in their natural habitat in Akagera.\"\n\nDr Pilgrim added: \"I genuinely believe there is nowhere safer in Africa right now than this national park.\"\n\nTaking their very first steps on African soil, five critically endangered animals have no idea that scores of people - in Rwanda and across Europe - will be rooting for them.", "A Silicon Valley-based software firm is to create 100 jobs in Belfast.\n\nDynamic Signal makes technology that allows companies to communicate with all of their employees.\n\nIts clients include Fortune 500 companies such as Telefonica (O2), Volvo Group, BMW and Nestlé.\n\nThe company currently employs seven staff at River House in Belfast. It said 100 staff will be recruited over the next three-to-four years.\n\nInvest NI has offered the company £650,000 towards creating the new roles, which it said would contribute more than £3.4m in wages to the Northern Ireland economy.\n\nSteve Heyman, co-founder and chief operating officer of Dynamic Signal, said: \"This new centre in Northern Ireland will play an important role as we expand our products and services, and look to grow our global customer base.\n\n\"We believe the skills available in the IT sector here, particularly in software development, and the quality of students graduating from third level education, makes this the right location for this new centre.\"", "Last updated on .From the section Cricket\n\nEngland's World Cup hopes hang in the balance after a demoralising defeat by Australia at Lord's.\n\nThe 64-run loss means they might need to win their last two games, beginning with India at Edgbaston on Sunday, in order to make the last four.\n\nMuch will depend on the results of Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan, who can all overhaul Eoin Morgan's men.\n\nThe hosts began the tournament as favourites, but now have little margin for error, with this loss following Friday's shock reverse to Sri Lanka to make a total of three defeats in seven games.\n\nThey actually did well to restrict Australia to 285-7, especially after captain Aaron Finch's century helped his team to 173-1.\n\nHowever, that target was always going to be a challenge against the dangerous Australia attack in conditions ideally suited to pace bowling.\n\nSo it proved. The heart was ripped out of England's top order and, at 53-4, their chase was in tatters.\n\nJust as he did against Sri Lanka, Ben Stokes played a virtually lone hand for 89, but after he was bowled by a searing Mitchell Starc yorker, England subsided to 221 all out.\n\nNow they face the prospect of having to beat at least one, maybe both, of India and New Zealand - two unbeaten sides and, in the case of India, the best team in the tournament.\n• None What does Australia defeat mean for England's World Cup hopes?\n• None 'Teetering on the brink of calamity' - old habits return at the worst of times for England\n• None 'We win two games, we definitely go through' - Morgan refuses to panic\n• None TMS podcast: 'England looked a team who knew they could lose'\n\nA meeting between cricket's oldest rivals, on its grandest stage and with the World Cup jeopardy feeling very real, all contributed to a supercharged atmosphere.\n\nIndeed, almost a month after it started, this felt like the day the tournament really began.\n\nFor England, overcome by the tension of it all, it may be one step closer to the end.\n\nMight they rue the decision to field first? Given the conditions, it was entirely understandable, but the suspicion remained Australia would be less comfortable chasing, in addition to the fact that England's two prior defeats had also come batting second.\n\nYes, Chris Woakes had no luck with the new ball, but Jofra Archer and Mark Wood struggled with their length, even if both men played their part in England's admirable fightback.\n\nHowever, they were later given a lesson in the benefits of a full length by the Australians, who removed James Vince and Joe Root with swing and were gifted the wickets of Eoin Morgan and Jonny Bairstow, both caught on the pull.\n\nIn the end, it was like England's 50-over dominance of the past four years had never happened, and usual service against Australia, whom they have not beaten in the World Cup since 1992, had resumed.\n\nAll this comes in the run-up to an Ashes series that England are in danger of having extra time to prepare for.\n\nThe race for the semi-finals - remaining fixtures\n\nEngland can rightly say they could have taken more than one Australia wicket with the new ball - Woakes had Finch edge over second slip and narrowly escape being lbw on review, while Vince got his fingertips to a spectacular flying effort at point off Archer.\n\nBut for every occasion England beat the bat, there were more that their lengths were poor, and they were punished by an opening stand of 123 between Finch and David Warner.\n\nEngland were visibly frustrated, their fielding scruffy, as when Jos Buttler missed the opportunity to stump Usman Khawaja off Adil Rashid.\n\nGradually, they got it together, however. The bowling improvement was collective, the fielding showed greater intent. Wickets fell at regular intervals as Australia wasted their platform.\n\nEven then, a good start with the bat was needed, not Vince playing all around a Jason Behrendorff inswinger to the second ball of the innings.\n\nRoot was trapped by Starc; Morgan, then Bairstow, holed out. Stokes and Buttler then added 71 before Khawaja produced a superb running catch on the boundary to remove the latter.\n\nStokes was already battling an injury to his left leg by the time he heaved two sixes off the same Glenn Maxwell over, his stand of 53 with Woakes gradually restoring belief to Lord's.\n\nIt was sucked away by an almost unplayable delivery from Starc and, as Stokes kicked his bat in frustration, the game was up.\n\nAustralia getting it right again\n\nA year ago, in the wake of the sandpaper scandal, a chaotic Australia were hammered 5-0 in an ODI series in this country.\n\nNow, with Warner and Steve Smith restored, captain Finch and coach Justin Langer moulding the side and their fast bowlers firing, they are in hunt to retain their title and win a fifth World Cup in six.\n\nThis win, their sixth from seven games, takes them to 12 points, top of the table and assured of a place in the semi-finals.\n\nHome captain Morgan said before the game that he would not discourage the crowd from booing Smith and Warner, and the Lord's crowd duly made their feelings known at every opportunity.\n\nAustralia, though, were undeterred. First Finch played drives and pulls, as well as thumping the spinners over the leg side, to take his tournament run tally to 496, just four behind Warner, whose 53 made him the first man to 500.\n\nTheir bowlers found swing rarely seen with a white ball and also induced England mistakes with clever use of the short ball.\n\nPat Cummins was excellent, Behrendorff claimed 5-44, but the biggest danger was the loose-limbed Starc, whose 4-43 restored him to the position of the tournament's leading wicket-taker.\n\nIt was all backed up by Finch's smart captaincy and some sharp fielding, especially when Maxwell brilliantly offloaded to Finch to have Woakes caught at cow corner.\n\n'They've won nothing' - what they said\n\nFormer England captain Michael Vaughan on TMS: \"We've got to stop saying that this style of play has made England successful. They've played great cricket and got to number one in the world but they've won nothing.\n\n\"India on Sunday might be a 250 wicket - can England get that target by playing a little bit smarter? It's about playing cricket to win the match. England have to do that. I don't care how they do it. They've got to win.\"\n\nAustralia captain Aaron Finch: \"You don't win the tournament if you don't reach the semis. That's the first bit ticked off.\n\n\"England are a stand-out side; they are a team that can take you apart at stages. We found ways to keep getting wickets.\"\n\nEngland captain Eoin Morgan: \"We're not feeling the pressure of being favourites.

Mr Hunt received 77 votes and Michael Gove was knocked out with 75.\n\nOne questioner at the hustings wanted to know whether Mr Johnson's approach to British business in the context of Brexit was as \"cavalier and careless\" as previously, when he used an expletive.\n\nHe replied: \"I believe passionately in UK businesses, and as foreign secretary I spent a lot of my time promoting UK businesses at home abroad.\"\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary.\n\nHe said: \"I would do so with a heavy heart.

I have voted for Brexit.\"\n\nIn another jibe at his rival, Mr Hunt warned members not to elect a Conservative \"populist\" to oppose \"hard-left populist\" Jeremy Corbyn.\n\nReferring to himself, he said: \"Or we could do better and choose our own Jeremy.\"\n\nHe continued: \"If Corbyn gets into Downing Street there will never be Brexit.\n\n\"That's why it's so important that we hold together our Conservative and DUP family and deliver Brexit.\"\n\nMr Hunt said he would increase defence spending and called for Conservatives to have a \"social mission\", focusing on social care for older people.\n\nHe also vowed to get more young people voting Tory.\n\nAnd he promised: \"I will never provoke a general election before we have left the EU.\"\n\nMembers will receive their ballots between 6 and 8 July, with the new leader expected to be announced in the week beginning 22 July.", "Boris Johnson brought the spotlight to Ballymena when he opened a plant to build parts for his \"Boris buses\"\n\nAs the race to be the next Tory leader is whittled down to the final two candidates, here is what a Boris Johnson or a Jeremy Hunt premiership could mean for Northern Ireland.\n\nMr Johnson's main link to Northern Ireland used to be his red buses.\n\nIn 2013, the then London mayor opened a Wrightbus plant in Ballymena, County Antrim, where parts for them are made.\n\nFew would have bet that within six years he would be a frontrunner to become prime minister.\n\nBattling him for the keys to Number 10 is Mr Hunt, the foreign secretary who insists he's best placed to strengthen the union of the United Kingdom.\n\nBut what are their positions on central issues such as the political crisis in Stormont, the Tories' confidence-and-supply partners the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and the Irish border question?\n\nThis will be key for whoever takes over in Number 10 but both candidates face an uphill battle to get their preferred Brexit deal through Parliament.\n\nThe backstop is the insurance policy to maintain a seamless border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland: opposition to it brought Theresa May's time in office to an abrupt end.\n\nMr Johnson has referred to it as a \"monstrosity\" that wipes out the UK's sovereignty and he has called for the backstop to be removed from the withdrawal deal.\n\nHe believes the EU can be persuaded to reopen the agreement, but says the UK should still prepare for a no-deal Brexit.\n\nBoris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt both believe they can succeed where Theresa May failed\n\nMr Hunt has said the EU accepts that the backstop will never be approved by Parliament.\n\nHe maintains he has had conversations with European leaders who \"understand that the backstop will not get through Parliament - they may not have understood that before\".\n\nHe proposes sending a new negotiating team team to Brussels, which would include representatives of the European Research Group - the group of Conservative MPs who support harder forms of Brexit - and members of the DUP.\n\nMany in the Conservative Party believe a new personality at the top can change hearts and minds in Europe but the EU has insisted that the backstop is not up for renegotiation.\n\nThe DUP is keeping quiet about who it would like to see move into Downing Street.\n\nThe party is no stranger to the \"Boris effect\": the Conservative MP was the keynote speaker at the DUP conference last year.\n\nBoris Johnson sat in between the DUP leadership at the party conference last November\n\nBut it will be wary of broken promises.\n\nAt the conference, he called for the backstop to be \"junked\" but then voted for the agreement - including the backstop - during the third meaningful vote in March.\n\nThere's also the matter of renewing the confidence-and-supply pact.\n\nThe Conservatives needed the votes of the DUP's 10 MPs in order to have a working Commons majority after the 2017 Westminster election but had to agree to an extra £1bn in spending for Northern Ireland.\n\nSome Johnson-backing Tory MPs, like Daniel Kawczynski, want the next PM to call a fresh election rather than continue to be at the DUP's \"beck and call\".\n\nWhile the DUP voted against Theresa May's Brexit deal and threatened the government several times over the backstop, it is worth saying that the influence the DUP wields at Westminster is very valuable.\n\nIt will want to work with whoever becomes prime minister.\n\nJeremy Hunt would not be as closely aligned to the DUP as other members of his party.\n\nBut he has sought to paint himself as the candidate best placed to strengthen the union and win the backing of the DUP with a new Brexit deal.\n\nThe latest talks to try and restore power-sharing in Northern Ireland began in May.\n\nAlthough talks haven't broken down, there are no signs of a political breakthrough any time soon.\n\nSinn Féin and the DUP have pointed the finger at each other during the course of the talks processes\n\nIf Boris Johnson becomes PM he is likely to replace the Northern Ireland Secretary Karen Bradley - a Theresa May loyalist - with someone new.\n\nHow could that affect the ongoing talks process, which Mrs Bradley has been overseeing?\n\nUnlike unsuccessful candidate Michael Gove, who said he would personally lead talks to restore the Stormont administration, Jeremy Hunt has not made much mention of the process.\n\nIt is not clear if he would replace his cabinet colleague Mrs Bradley in the Northern Ireland brief.\n\nEarlier this year, Mr Hunt said the UK was wholly \"committed\" to the 1998 Good Friday peace agreement and many of the parties in Northern Ireland would be keen to see him live up to that.\n\nA fresh pair of eyes could possibly help move the Stormont negotiations along - but it's likely to prove as difficult to resolve as Brexit.", "A former charity fundraiser and an organic farmer have been convicted of funding terrorism by sending cash to their son in Syria. So how did Sally Lane and John Letts end up before a jury in the Old Bailey?\n\nIn the words of one judge, they were \"two perfectly decent people... in custody because of the love of their child\".\n\nAnd over four years, Lane and Letts battled to avoid trial for sending cash to their son, who had joined the war in Syria and the Islamic State group.\n\nBut now they have both been found guilty of a serious terrorism-related offence after a trial that came down to evidence of foreseeable consequences.\n\nJack Letts converted to Islam as a 16-year-old. His parents had supported his decision.\n\nBut two years later in May 2014 evidence began to emerge that he was associating with extremists. He married Asmaa, whose family were influential in IS in Iraq, and they had a child together.\n\nA fellow Muslim who knew Jack Letts in Oxford warned his parents their son wanted to go to Syria.\n\nJack Letts, who is now 23, told his parents he only wanted to study in the Middle East and they decided to fund his travel.\n\nBut they were not sure what he was up to. Evidence from their trial reveals that Lane confided in a friend that she believed her son might be seeking to join the war - but both she and his father appeared to hoping for the best.\n\nIn late August the truth dawned. Lane emailed a friend to say her son was in the \"worst\" possible country, a message sent two days before the beheading of James Foley, the first western hostage to be murdered by IS.\n\nAnd Jack Letts finally confirmed to his parents on 2 September 2014 that he was in Syria and later exchanges made clear he was alongside other IS group recruits from the UK in the group's capital Raqqa.\n\nBy March 2015 counter-terrorism detectives were investigating Jack Letts and they advised his parents not to send him any cash. Quite simply, it would probably end up in the hands of the terror group and wiring money in such circumstances was a crime.\n\nDuring the trial the jury heard that Jack Letts has obsessive compulsive disorder and his parents believed his decision to go to Syria was influenced by his condition.\n\nBut to others, he had appeared to have become a fully signed-up member of an extremist sect. In one Facebook post he declared he'd like to \"do a martyrdom operation\" against a school friend who was in the Army.\n\nLane sent one payment - and tried to transfer two more\n\nWeeks later he was bragging to his mother about the \"Islamic State Health Service\", a key piece of propaganda that the group's UK recruits were encouraged to promote.\n\nAnd so when he began to ask for cash, he was playing on his parents' turmoil.\n\nHe repeatedly asked Lane to send money to an intermediary in Turkey or Lebanon whom she did not know. He claimed it would not go on \"jihad\" but advised her to come up with a cover story.\n\nDespite her reservations, the trial heard Lane and John Letts agreed to the proposal and in September 2015 she wired £223 to her son's contact in Lebanon.\n\nShe hoped any cash she sent her son could help him survive or escape. But the transfer led to a second warning from the police not to send any more.\n\nIn relation to this transaction, the couple were convicted by a jury at the Old Bailey of entering into a funding arrangement for the purposes of terrorism.\n\nThey were each sentenced to 15 months imprisonment, suspended for two years.\n\nAs the winter wore on, Jack Letts was sending conflicting messages. On the one hand he said the West should \"die in their rage\". He also began to suggest he was doubting IS beliefs and wanted to return home.\n\nHis parents pressed further, and Jack Letts again asked for cash, suggesting smugglers could help him to get out.\n\nBy now it was not just the police warning the couple not to send anything. Two independent experts, an academic and a professional deradicaliser, also advised the couple not to send money.\n\nThen, on 27 December 2015, a junior police officer, acting as a liaison with the family, made a mistake. That officer said money could be sent if it were to aid their son's escape.\n\nTwo days later, case officers corrected the error in a meeting with Lane and John Letts, backed up with a written notice that sending cash would be a crime.\n\nDespite that formal advice, effectively a third warning, on New Year's Eve Lane tried to send £1,000 to her son's nominated intermediary in Lebanon.\n\nThe payment was blocked. Four days later, the trial heard, that Sally Lane used a false identity to try again to send £500. Again, the payment was blocked.\n\nThe jury cleared the couple of funding terrorism by attempting to send the £1,000 payment and were unable to reach a verdict in relation to the third attempted transfer.\n\nThe case has been one of the most drawn-out terrorism prosecutions in recent history - including the almost 20 hours the jury took to reach verdicts.\n\nNo jury could be asked to find Sally Lane and John Letts guilty of supporting terrorism - because there was no evidence they supported banned violent groups. It was clear from their own emotional arguments with their son how deeply disgusted and shocked they had been by his decision.\n\nBut at the same time, they wanted to help him come to his senses and find a way out.\n\nSupporters of Lane and John Letts came to the Old Bailey\n\nThe question for the jury would be whether sending cash for that purpose broke the law which bans the funding of terrorism in any circumstances.\n\nThat law, Section 17 of the Terrorism Act 2000, states that it is a crime to enter into a funding arrangement if someone either knows or has \"reasonable cause to suspect\" that money could end up in the hands of terrorists.\n\nWhen the offence was originally created in 1976, prosecutors had to prove the defendant either definitely knew for sure or suspected the cash was going to fund terrorism.\n\nBut Parliament later changed the wording to include situations where people would merely have had reasonable cause to suspect where their cash was heading. This, in effect, lowered the evidential test to find someone guilty.\n\nAs the case approached trial, the couple asked the Court of Appeal to rule that the law was being misinterpreted - a challenge that could have stopped the prosecution. During the hearing in 2017 they argued they could not be accused of funding terrorism if they honestly did not believe their son would ever hand money to a banned terror group.\n\nTheir aim had been to try to rescue him, to save his life, and therefore they could not be prosecuted for funding a terror group.\n\nThose senior judges rejected that appeal and that decision was backed a year later by the Supreme Court.\n\nIf Jack Letts had successfully covered his tracks, his parents would never have committed a crime because they would have had absolutely no idea what he was up to.\n\nHowever, there was ample evidence of where he was, who he appeared to be with and what he had been doing.\n\nThe jury had to decide whether the couple knew enough about their son's situation to reasonably suspect cash might end up in the pockets of IS fighters, even if they genuinely hoped that it would not.\n\nIn opening the trial, prosecutor Alison Morgan QC said jurors would inevitably have sympathy for the parents but the law was focused on \"the greater good, stopping money flowing into terrorist groups\".\n\nBoth of them knew where Jack was, who he was associating with and believed he was being manipulated by others, she added.\n\n\"Sending money in such circumstances, where you may conclude that it was highly likely to fall into the wrong hands, is against the law.\"\n\nWhile the facts of their trial appear unusual, there have been other very similar cases involving Muslim-heritage families, albeit with less media hullabaloo.\n\nSalim Wakil, a 25-year-old from Hampshire, was jailed for 30 months in February this year for the same crime.\n\nIn 2014, his 16-year-old sister, Summaiyyah, headed to the warzone along with other Britons. She ended up a teenage mum and widow after her fighter husband from Portsmouth was killed.\n\nHer siblings repeatedly tried to persuade her to return home. Instead she kept nagging them for money. They all resisted, other than Salim, who the Old Bailey heard had mental health problems.\n\nHe was too meek and suggestible to resist his sister's manipulation and ultimately agreed to send her more than £2,500.\n\nThere's a long-standing principle that someone should not be found guilty of a very serious crime unless they intended it to happen.\n\nThis is an important safeguard in English law because it requires a jury to be sure of the defendant's state of mind. This is known as the concept of \"Mens Rea\", the guilty mind.\n\nBut the law of funding terrorism works differently because the test is what the defendant reasonably suspects might happen, rather than what they intended.\n\nHenry Blaxland QC, for John Letts, told the trial the prosecution was \"inhumane to the point of being cruel\".\n\n\"This prosecution does absolutely nothing to further the prevention of terrorism,\" he said.\n\n\"In fact it runs the risk of undermining the fight against terrorism because it runs the risk of bringing the law into disrepute. Law without compassion is not justice.\"\n\nBut the law, in this case, is the law. Jack Letts did something terrible. The dual UK-Canadian national has appeared to live to regret it.\n\nHis parents, right to the eve of their trial, petitioned the British and Canadian governments for help to get him home, including a hunger strike outside St Paul's Cathedral.\n\nTheir suffering is the same as that of many other parents who discovered their sons and daughters had headed to a war 3,000 miles away.\n\nBut the jury at the Old Bailey concluded Lane and John Letts were not entitled to take the law into their own hands.\n\nThe crime they were accused of makes no allowances for crossed fingers, a refusal to accept the available facts, or naivety.", "Scientists hope a new type of medication could boost healthy growth in children born with dwarfism.\n\nSam Short, nine, from south-west London has been on the treatment for three years as part of a global trial.\n\nIt is experimental but experts hope the drug can stop some of the medical complications linked to stunted growth.\n\nThe researchers behind the work, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, say the goal is to improve health, not just increase height.\n\nSam's mother, Jennifer, had a normal pregnancy, so when Sam was born with his condition, it came as a complete surprise.\n\nAchondroplasia - the most common form of dwarfism - affects about one in every 25,000 babies.\n\nIt is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in a gene that impairs the growth of bones in the limbs, the spine, and base of the skull.\n\nOften, it affects babies at random but the gene change can also be inherited.\n\nLike other children with achondroplasia, Sam has short legs and arms. The main health concern is how his spine and legs will grow as he ages.\n\nChildren with achondroplasia can develop a curve in their lower spine and some get bow legs. Both can cause problems with walking and, sometimes, repeated surgery to break and reshape the bones is needed.\n\nJennifer hopes the new drug treatment could help Sam avoid some of these complications.\n\n\"He is a happy, healthy, very confident extroverted boy,\" she says.\n\n\"He just happens to be a lot smaller than his brother and sister and peers and friends.\n\n\"We have been seeing great results in terms of his growth, in terms of his limbs becoming a bit more in proportion and it just means he's starting to get able to run faster and keep up with his friends, reach things on the counter-top and it hopefully will mean he will face less health problems as an adult than some people with dwarfism face.\"\n\nSam grew about 3cm (1in) in the year before he joined the study.\n\nAfter the first year on the treatment, he had grown another 6cm.\n\n\"Friends and family and people at school have noticed that he is looking taller, looking straighter and he is able to keep up on the football pitch or the cricket pitch a bit more than he used to,\" Jennifer says.\n\nTory English, 12, who lives in Australia, is also on the treatment.\n\nHer mother, Anthea, a nurse, says the family agreed to let Tory take part in the trial to improve her quality of life.\n\n\"Height is just an incidental,\" Anthea says. \"If it was about height alone, we would not be doing it.\n\n\"We're not fussed about height but we do want to help her avoid health issues.\n\n\"Tory was very much part of the decision to do this. If ever she does not want to be part of it, that's her choice.\"\n\nThe medicine is a daily injection, called vosoritide, which blocks a signal controlled by the faulty gene FGFR3 that impairs normal bone growth in children with achondroplasia.\n\nResearchers say the trial results so far are promising.\n\nThe main objective of the trial involving 35 children, sponsored by BioMarin, the pharmaceutical company that makes the drug, was to show safety and look for any adverse events or serious side-effects.\n\nAnd the latest findings suggest it is safe enough for patients to take.\n\nA secondary objective was to see how much the children would grow.\n\nOn average, they grew at a faster rate compared with the 12 months before they started on the drug.\n\nThere was no adverse effect on body proportion or overall bone age, suggesting the effect, if sustained long-term, might increase final adult height, according to the researchers.\n\nBut there is no data yet on whether the drug can prevent complications linked to restricted growth.\n\nSome critics worry that if it is approved, the treatment would be used to cosmetically change dwarfism - something many people with the condition would oppose.\n\nJoseph Stramondo, assistant professor of philosophy at San Diego State University, who himself has dwarfism, is concerned researchers are \"misleading vulnerable, frightened parents about the purpose of these studies\".\n\n\"These trials are only measuring gains in height in children, not the effects of the drug on adverse symptoms,\" he says.\n\nBut lead investigator Prof Ravi Savarirayan, from Melbourne's Murdoch Children's Research Institute, says: \"It's not just cosmetic. What we are trying to do is to see if we can improve these children's health and function.\"\n\nHe and colleagues at the Evelina London Children's Hospital, along with other research institutes in France and the US, have now moved into the next phase of testing.\n\nThey hope the treatment could become available within a few years if it is effective enough.\n\nThe US Food and Drug Administration, which regulates medicines, held a meeting last year to discuss the vosoritide trials.\n\nIt concluded that measuring how much a child had grown on the drug in a year was a \"reasonable primary endpoint for clinical trials\".\n\nOther experimental drugs that target different bone growth pathways are also being tested in children with achondroplasia.\n• None My fear of dating as someone with dwarfism\n• None Things Not To Say to people with dwarfism - BBC Three\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Police have suspended work with the UK's biggest private forensic company following a cyber-attack on the firm.\n\nThe suspension has led to delays in forensic testing, which could impact on court cases.\n\nEurofins Forensic Services carries out DNA testing, toxicology analysis, firearms testing and computer forensics for police forces across the UK.\n\nIts parent company, Eurofins, suffered a ransomware attack on 1 or 2 June, which is under criminal investigation.\n\nRansomware is a computer virus that prevents users from accessing their system or personal files and demands ransom payment in order to unlock access.\n\nIt is the latest in a series of major forensic science problems to hit police forces since the closure of the government-owned service in England and Wales in 2012.\n\nAn emergency police response has been put in place, led by the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC), which took the decision to \"temporarily suspend\" all submissions to Eurofins.\n\nEurofins, which caters for over 50% of the UK market, deals with over 70,000 criminal cases in the UK each year.\n\nA group of senior officers will ensure the most serious crimes are given priority, as well as ensuring other forensic providers aren't overloaded with submissions.\n\n\"Our priority is to minimise the impact on the criminal justice system,\" said the NPCC lead for forensics, Chief Constable James Vaughan.\n\n\"It is too early to fully quantify the impact but we are working at pace with partners to understand and mitigate the risks.\"\n\nThe Crown Prosecution Service said a police investigation was ongoing, but at this stage there was \"no evidence to suggest that previous convictions were unsafe\".\n\nA spokesperson added: \"The CPS is assessing current cases to identify any impact on criminal trials as a result of this attack, and will ensure all necessary action is taken to allow them to proceed fairly.\"\n\nEurofins said the attack \"caused disruption to many of its IT systems in several countries\" in a statement on it website.\n\nIt said it believed the attack was carried out by \"highly sophisticated well-resourced perpetrators\" and the ransomware involved appears to have been a \"new malware variant\".\n\nThe National Crime Agency is conducting an investigation into the cyber attack, supported by the National Cyber Security Centre.\n\nA government spokesperson said: \"We are working closely with law enforcement and justice partners to investigate the sources of the attack and minimise any impact on our criminal justice system.\"\n\nForensic science work has been carried out by private firms and police laboratories in England and Wales since the closure of the government's Forensic Science Service in 2012.\n\nLast year 40 drug-driving offences were quashed and thousands of cases were reviewed after data was allegedly manipulated at Randox Testing Services.\n\nAnother company - Key Forensic Services - collapsed in January 2018, while the Met Police also had to carry out a review after a forensic scientist apparently botched examinations.\n\nEurofins has seven laboratories in the UK - Teddington, south-west London; Leeds Dock, in Leeds; Risley, Cheshire; Wakefield, west Yorkshire; Culham, Oxfordshire; Fordham, Cambridgeshire; Tamworth, Staffordshire.\n\nIt also provides a range of other screening services to industry, agriculture and the pharmaceutical sector.

As a journalist, he had questioned the repeal of laws banning the promotion of homosexuality by local authorities.

He also voted in favour of civil partnerships.\n\nBoris Johnson during one of his Have I Got News For You appearances, in 2004\n\nIn October 2004, then Conservative leader Michael Howard ordered him to visit Liverpool to apologise for a Spectator article accusing its residents of wallowing in \"disproportionate\" grief after Ken Bigley - an engineer from the city - was kidnapped and killed in Iraq.\n\nAnd the following month, he was sacked as shadow arts minister, amid claims he had misled Mr Howard about reports of an affair with Spectator columnist Petronella Wyatt.\n\nNevertheless, a year later, he was on the rise again - resigning from his Spectator post when new Tory leader David Cameron made him shadow higher education minister.\n\nHowever, he continued to write for the Telegraph and had to make another apology - to a whole country - after he linked Papua New Guinea to \"cannibalism and chief-killing\" in a column.\n\nBy 2007, the Henley MP had his sights set on one of the biggest jobs in UK politics.\n\nTaking over from Labour's Ken Livingstone in 2008, Boris Johnson remained London mayor until 2016.

However, it was also falling during his predecessor's second term.\n\nAnd in the first few years after Mr Johnson took over, knife crime rose by over 15% - although from 2012-13 onwards it started to fall.\n\nMr Johnson had backed the police use of stop-and-search powers to tackle violent crime. And he said he would ensure police numbers would go up despite central government cuts.\n\nHome Office figures show police numbers in London rose slightly, from 31,460 to 32,125, between March 2008 and March 2016. Across England and Wales in that period the number of officers fell by 17,603.\n\nThere was an increase in the number of affordable homes built - 101,525 by the end of March 2016, of which the Greater London Authority contributed to 94,001. This was a rise compared with the two terms of Mr Livingstone, although the definition of affordable housing had changed in 2011 so the figures are not directly comparable.\n\nHe scrapped the so-called bendy buses - which he said were too big for narrow streets and encouraged fare-dodgers.\n\nIn their place, he introduced a new version of the popular Routemaster London bus - a move that was criticised as a vanity project. There were complaints about non-opening windows and problems with the hybrid engines. They also cost considerably more than a normal bus.\n\nOne of his most famous transport initiatives was the so-called \"Boris Bike\" cycle scheme, introduced in July 2010.\n\nMr Johnson regularly promoted the hire bikes by riding them himself and the number of rentals reached more than 10.3 million during his last year as mayor.\n\nHowever, critics pointed to the £11m-a-year cost of keeping the bikes on the road. Others pointed out that plans for a bike hire scheme had been announced while Mr Livingstone had been mayor.\n\nAs mayor, Mr Johnson became involved in overseeing arrangements for the 2012 Olympics, planning for which started after they were awarded to London in 2005.\n\nOne of the most memorable moments was when he got stuck on a zip wire, while celebrating the UK's first gold medal win. The Olympics were widely seen as a success and there were claims that they had provided a major economic boost.\n\nBut there were also questions raised about the Olympics' legacy, including criticism of the conversion of the Olympic Stadium into a football ground. In 2017, an independent review said the conversion had cost £323m - far more than the original estimate of £190m.\n\nThe latter part of his time as mayor saw a plan to build a garden bridge over the River Thames as a memorial to Princess Diana.\n\nThe pedestrian-only bridge, with trees and plants, which was first suggested by the actress Joanna Lumley in 1998, was to be funded by private and public money.\n\nBut it was cancelled in 2017, after a review recommended the project be scrapped - £53m had already been spent on the project; £43m of which came from the public purse.\n\nMr Johnson decided he wanted to return to Parliament before his term as mayor ended, in 2016. He won the seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip in 2015.\n\nAfter resuming life as an MP, he declared his opposition to expanding nearby Heathrow airport, saying he would lie in front of the bulldozers.\n\nAs London mayor, he had promoted an alternative scheme, for an island airport in the Thames estuary, an idea rejected on cost and environmental grounds.\n\nBut Mr Johnson was noticeably absent when MPs subsequently voted on Heathrow expansion in June 2018, as he was on an official trip to Afghanistan.\n\nMr Johnson had been appointed foreign secretary by the new prime minister, Theresa May, in 2016.\n\nHe had also run in the Tory leadership campaign that year but dramatically pulled out after Michael Gove's surprise decision to enter the race.\n\nThe job as foreign secretary was seen as an acknowledgement of his role as a leading figure in the campaign to leave the EU.\n\nHowever, there was also some surprise at the choice, with Lib Dem leader Tim Farron saying he would \"spend more time apologising to nations he's offended\" than working as foreign secretary.\n\nAnd there were the disparaging comments about other countries and their leaders - some of which were made before he got the job.\n\nThey included a Limerick - which won a £1,000 award in 2016 - about Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and a goat. And he said the Libyan city of Sirte could be the new Dubai if \"they... clear the dead bodies away\".\n\nAs foreign secretary, Mr Johnson supported a tough line against Russia, with the expulsion of its diplomats after the poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia Skripal.\n\nTwenty-nine countries, including the US, Canada, Australia and EU states, joined the UK, expelling more than 140 Russian diplomats in a co-ordinated move.\n\nNazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been detained in Iran since 2016\n\nBut in the case of British Iranian national Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, jailed in Iran, Mr Johnson had to apologise in Parliament.\n\nHe had said she had been teaching journalists in Iran when she had been detained, contradicting her statement that she had been on holiday at the time.\n\nHe later clarified that she had in fact been on holiday but has also said he does not believe his remarks made a difference to her plight - a claim rejected by her family.\n\nA few days after Mr Johnson made his remarks, Zaghari-Ratcliffe was summoned before an Iranian judge, to face charges of engaging in propaganda against the regime.\n\nAs foreign secretary, he also earned a rebuke from Downing Street, after comments emerged in which he had criticised close ally Saudi Arabia for engaging in proxy wars in the Middle East.\n\nNevertheless, he continued to allow sales of UK arms to Saudi Arabia, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen.\n\nIn 2018, Mr Johnson also faced criticism after writing in the Daily Telegraph that Muslim women wearing the burka \"looked like letterboxes\".\n\nBy this stage, though, he had left the government, resigning in protest at Theresa May's Brexit plan.\n\nBoris Johnson was a leading figure in the Vote Leave campaign during the 2016 EU referendum.\n\nHe became well known for his attacks on the EU and for advocating the benefits of Brexit. He declared that he was \"pro-having cake and pro-eating it\".\n\nBut it hadn't always been clear which side he would support.\n\nIn fact, while mayor of London, he'd spoken of the benefits of being in the single market.\n\nAnd in an article for the Daily Telegraph in 2013, weighing up the pros and cons of being in the EU, he had said that leaving would not solve the UK's problems.\n\nHowever, he also made clear he supported plans to ask the British people to decide about EU membership.\n\nDuring the Brexit campaign, he came under sustained criticism from those in favour of Remain, for his claims about the benefits of leaving and what he called \"taking back control\".\n\nMost controversial was a claim about how much money the UK sent to the EU. The £350m-a-week figure, which appeared on the side of a bus during the campaign, recently led to an unsuccessful attempt to prosecute him. Critics pointed out at the time that the figure was wrong as it did not take into account the UK's rebate, or indeed money subsequently spent in the UK.\n\nFor his part, Mr Johnson dismissed warnings that leaving the EU could spark a recession, describing one such study as propaganda.\n\nAnd he has continued to advocate a harder form of Brexit, sharply criticising both the deal that Mrs May agreed and her whole approach to the negotiations with the EU.\n\nHe described it as leading the UK into the \"status of a colony\", in his resignation letter, in July 2018.\n\nMr Johnson has continued to insist that the UK can and should leave the EU by 31 October, with or without a deal.", "Takeaway apps Deliveroo and Just Eat have said they are working to combat fraud, after customers reported their accounts had been used to buy food they did not order.\n\nOne customer told the BBC Deliveroo took five days to shut his account after he reported fraudulent activity.\n\nBoth companies said their own systems had not been breached and passwords had been obtained from another source.\n\nDeliveroo said it had introduced new measures this year to protect users.\n\nJust Eat said it took the safeguarding of customer data \"extremely seriously\" and was liaising with customers who had reported fraudulent activity.\n\nSeveral Deliveroo customers told the BBC they realised their accounts had been accessed when they received an email from the company saying the email address linked to their account had been changed.\n\nFraudsters then ordered food through their account using credit obtained by claiming refunds for previous orders.\n\nDeliveroo said cyber criminals relied on people reusing passwords for multiple online services and used data breaches on other sites to try to access Deliveroo accounts.\n\nAndrew Shaw, 33, from London, said he had to wait five days after he reported fraudulent activity on his account before Deliveroo shut it down.\n\nBy this point Mr Shaw had already cancelled his card and three orders had been placed, using £11 credit he already had on his account and £27 credit obtained from a refund.\n\nDeliveroo said it takes security \"extremely seriously\" and is continually rolling out measures to combat fraud, including introducing extra security checks when it detects changes to account details.\n\nReferring to the delay in responding to Mr Shaw, a spokesman said: \"There are rare occasions we don't meet the high standards our customers expect and we are working hard to correct and address the issues raised.\"\n\nJust Eat said it had received reports of \"isolated\" fraudulent activity\n\nAnother customer, Ian Cutress, 33, from London, said an order was placed on his account to an estate less than three miles away, with instructions to \"ring when close for detailed delivery instructions\".\n\nAfter contacting Deliveroo, the company deactivated the account.\n\nMr Cutress said he was relieved his card details were not attached to his account, so the fraudster was only able to place an order using refund credit and he was not left out of pocket.\n\nJust Eat also confirmed it had received reports of \"isolated\" fraudulent activity, which it said appeared to be the result of \"malicious third parties using usernames and passwords from an unknown source\", which was not Just Eat.\n\nOn Thursday, one customer wrote on Twitter that they had cancelled their bank card after it was fraudulently used to purchase food through Just Eat.\n\nThe customer claimed they had been told by the company's customer services they had received \"numerous calls\" about similar issues that day.\n\nJust Eat said it had multiple security measures in place, which are continually reviewed to ensure they are robust.\n\nIt is not the first time takeaway apps have been targeted by fraudsters.

The number 11's poke nestled in the gloves of the wicketkeeper, and England were beaten.\n\nWhile England were putting in an excellent display with the ball and in the field, Mathews crawled along, looking entirely like a batsman whose previous highest score in this tournament was just nine.\n\nOnly late on did he show any intent, but by that time he was rapidly running out of partners.\n\nWhen Sri Lanka were 3-2 after winning the toss, the day could have been short, only for Avishka Fernando to sparkle for 49, including two sixes pulled off Archer.\n\nAfter he uppercut Wood to third man, England spinners Moeen and Rashid bowled in tandem to suffocate Sri Lanka.\n\nIt was Rashid, looking back to near his best, who had Kusal Mendis well held by Eoin Morgan at mid-wicket and then, next ball, Jeevan Mendis caught and bowled.\n\nWood and Archer worked through the lower order, with Wood particularly impressive - his yorker to bowl Malinga was clocked at 93mph.\n\nAll the while, Mathews plodded on. At no point was he interested in playing the modern, ultra-aggressive one-day game, but he had the application to battle with both himself and the England bowlers.\n\n'If we had won, we would have been robbing Sri Lanka' - what they said\n\nEngland captain Eoin Morgan: \"In the chase we didn't do the basics of getting substantial partnerships going.\n\n\"We had a couple of good individual performances but Sri Lanka thoroughly deserved to win.\n\n\"We didn't do enough to win the game and even if we had nicked it then it would have been us robbing the game with an outstanding individual performance.\"\n\nFormer England assistant coach Paul Farbrace on Test Match Special: \"England will know their performance today hasn't been good enough to win the game and it is a game they should be winning.\n\n\"(Head coach) Trevor Bayliss talks lot about smart cricket and at times they did not play smart cricket.\n\n\"They don't make excuses. Eoin Morgan will call it as he sees it. There won't be any shouting or finger pointing but there will be some quiet conversations with some players about their modes of dismissals.\"\n\nSri Lanka captain Dimuth Karunaratne: \"It was a close one, we were under pressure but it was teamwork in the end - all the batters and bowlers did great work.\n\n\"We thought this wicket looked like a 300 pitch but it was slower than we thought. We knew we couldn't get 300, so wanted 250-275 until we lost some wickets but Angelo Mathews batted really well.\n\n\"With a score on the board the bowlers knew what to do on this wicket.\n\n\"The Root wicket was the turning point.

Like attempting to learn the drums in your '50s, or, consequently, having to readjust to new neighbours. And there are some things in life that are really difficult, like ordering food in an unfamiliar language and then trying to persuade your 10-year-old child to eat boiled goat's testicles in a restaurant without making a fuss.\n\nBut there are some things in life considered so difficult that conventional wisdom deems them nigh on impossible. Such as walking on air, or transferring Joseph Heller's 1961 classic novel Catch-22 from page to screen.\n\nMike Nichol proved the sages right with his unconvincing 1970 film adaptation, but that was before today's golden age of slow-burn television where there is both the time and the money available to tell the fragmented, intricate story of an American Air squadron based on an island off the west coast of Italy during World War Two.\n\nCatch-22 by Joseph Heller was published in 1961, and hailed by one critic as \"the greatest satirical work in the English language\"\n\nHeller's novel was made into a film in 1970, starring Jon Voight and Anthony Perkins, and directed by Mike Nichols\n\nThe good news for the production's backers was the multi-talented George Clooney was willing to help take the strain as a performer, a producer and a director of this Channel 4/Hulu six-part television adaptation by scriptwriters Luke Davies and David Michôd.\n\nClooney plays General Scheisskopf, a cartoon character of a part, which sees the Oscar-winning actor hamming it up as the cliched all-shouting, all-sneering parade ground bully who yells at those under his command for being a \"bunch of pansies\" etc.\n\nIt is little more than a cameo, but enough I suppose to enable the publicity department to place his face all over the marketing materials.\n\nClooney, who also directed two episodes, says the themes still resonate -- with people fighting \"against the system, and the system almost always winning\"\n\nHugh Laurie has a similar sized role as the sniffily detached Major de Coverley, a minor part that also offers slim pickings for another very able actor. But he succeeds, you'll be delighted to see, in wringing every last drop of surreal humour from the pompous patrician whose denouement is to die for, so to speak.\n\nThe heavy lifting falls to Christopher Abbott, who puts in an admirably restrained performance as main protagonist and anti-hero: the reluctant B25 bombardier John 'Yo-Yo' Yossarian.\n\nThe unwilling serviceman is just about to reach the number of flying missions required to be discharged when the quota is suddenly raised and his homecoming hopes dashed.\n\nUnderstandably, he is annoyed. And then it happens again. And again.\n\nChristopher Abbott plays Yossarian, who is desperate to escape his bomber squadron\n\nIn fact, every time he is about to fulfil his perilous airborne obligations the bar is raised and he's back up in the clouds and in harm's way; an actor in the Mediterranean theatre of war, not a player in his local bar.\n\nBut then he hears you can be discharged from duties if you are certified insane. So, off he goes to see Doc Daneeka (Grant Heslov) to plead to be signed off.\n\nNo can do, the doc says, before explaining that if Yossarian tells him he is so crazy that he must be withdrawn from duty he can't really be mad because requesting to be removed from imminent and obvious life-threatening danger is a wholly sane thing to do.\n\nYossarian (Christopher Abbott) tries to persuade Doc Daneeka (Grant Heslov) to declare him insane so he doesn't have to fly more missions\n\nAnd so the pressure mounts as does the body count and number of missions our gloomy bombardier must fly as decreed by the increasingly maniacal Colonel Cathcart (played by a slightly too absurdist Kyle Chandler).\n\nYossarian's existential anxiety turns into a tormented inner frustration at the way in which he is convinced the Kafkaesque system is designed to thwart him, deny his freedom of choice, and ultimately lead to his death. Walking back to base one day, he shares his personal philosophy with a colleague:\n\n\"The enemy is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he is on, and that includes Cathcart.\"\n\nIt is a great line taken straight from Heller's novel, to which the TV series is largely faithful.\n\nKyle Chandler says his character Colonel Cathcart, the base commander who keeps increasing the number of flying missions -- has no \"grasp on reality\"\n\nBut fans of the book might be disappointed by how much of the complexity and texture of Heller's time-shifting, fractured creation has been flattened out by a production team opting for a traditional chronological narrative told from a single perspective.\n\nIt is a structural decision that undermines one of Heller's main themes, which is the nature of memory and the notion of deja vu. The linear approach also creates an artistic problem. Heller used repetition both for purposes of symbolism, and also as a central storytelling device. With each shift back or forth in time, he added some new information, which would eventually pay off jokes and plot lines set up long before.\n\nIt is that intricacy, humour and authorial dexterity that make the book so rewarding to read. Without those temporal changes the repetition device as deployed in the TV version is less effective, and at worse - as with the majority of flying scenes - boring.\n\nMaybe simplification was the only way Catch-22 was going to work on television. If so, it reflects mess officer Milo Minderbinder's (Daniel David Stewart) M&M enterprise, which, thankfully, brings the book's biting satire to life on the screen.\n\nJoseph Heller said \"I think the whole society is nuts - and the question is: What does a sane man do in an insane society?\"\n\nMajor de Coverley (Hugh Laurie) is being tempted with a lamb chop by Milo Minderbinder (Daniel David Stewart), so he can be made Mess Officer\n\nHis commercial imperatives influence decision-making among the airbase's military leaders, and not - as is their stated aim - military strategy.\n\nAnd therein lies the crux of the story, it is not simply a question of what matters, but of what matters to whom. Minderbinder knows how to play the system, Yossarian does not.\n\nDoomed to exist in a never-ending cycle of fear and loneliness.\n\nYou can see that in this TV series, but you never actually feel it.", "Last updated on .From the section Tennis\n\nAndy Murray reached the doubles final at Queen's as the Briton's dream return to tennis continued five months after career-saving hip surgery.\n\nHe and Feliciano Lopez beat third seeds John Peers and Henri Kontinen 7-5 6-7 (5-7) 10-7.\n\nIt was a third match of the day for Lopez, who reached the singles final before heading straight out to resume their suspended doubles quarter-final.\n\nThey play Britain's Joe Salisbury and American Rajeev Ram in Sunday's final.\n\nAfter completing a 6-4 7-6 (7-3) win over Britons Dan Evans and Ken Skupski in a quarter-final that had been suspended on Friday for bad light, they stayed on court to play the semi-final.\n\n\"I'm very happy to be in the final,\" Murray said.\n\n\"It was a good match.

I think there should be no assessment,\" she said.\n\n\"A medical assessment should be enough.\"\n\nSusan Hill was 63 when she died\n\nPIP is available to help with some of the extra costs of long term ill-health or disability.\n\nThere is an option for people to be \"fast-tracked\" and not have a face-to-face assessment if a medical professional says they are not expected to live for more than six months.\n\nMr Hill said this \"didn't seem to be an option\" for his wife.\n\nThe Motor Neurone Disease Association has said this criterion is difficult to fill by MND patients, as the speed of the condition varies from person to person.\n\nThe charity is campaigning for a change in the law, so that terminally ill claimants are not excluded from the fast-track process.\n\nIt said: \"A person living with a terminal and progressive condition such as MND should be able to access the fast-track claim process under the special rules for terminal illness, which is far more appropriate for their needs than the slow and burdensome standard claim process.\"\n\nA spokesperson for the Department for Work and Pensions said: \"Terminally ill people can get their claims fast-tracked and access benefits without a face-to-face assessment.\n\n\"We're looking at how we can improve our processes and in the meantime we continue to work with charities - including MND Association - to help terminally ill people access the support they need.\"", "Former MP Harvey Proctor was cross-examined as a witness in the trial of Carl Beech\n\nA former MP who was named a paedophile and murderer by a man later charged with making the claims up says police investigators acted in \"bad faith\".\n\nHarvey Proctor was being cross-examined as a witness in the trial of Carl Beech who is accused of lying to police about an alleged VIP paedophile ring.\n\nHe denounced a defence suggestion at Newcastle Crown Court that the claims against him \"are in fact true\".\n\nMr Beech denies 12 counts of perverting the course of justice and one of fraud.\n\nThe 51-year-old from Gloucester had claimed Mr Proctor was directly involved in two murders and multiple counts of abuse in the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nDefence lawyer Collingwood Thompson QC asked Mr Proctor in his cross-examination: \"You were a member of a paedophile ring weren't you?\"\n\nWhen it was suggested he had been part of a group of powerful people who abused children at Dolphin Square in London and other locations, Mr Proctor said: \"No sir, there was no Westminster VIP paedophile ring.\"\n\nMr Proctor, 72, told the court he was suing the Metropolitan Police and his accuser for £1m in damages.\n\nThe trial heard previously he had lost his home and job as a result of the claims.\n\nThe court heard Mr Proctor was not interviewed by police until June 2015, despite his home in the grounds of Belvoir Castle being raided by officers three months earlier.\n\n\"If they genuinely thought that I had murdered anyone, why would they have waited three-and-a-half months to interview me and then interview me on a voluntary interview but not charge?,\" Mr Proctor said.\n\n\"They're allowing a murderer to roam the streets of Leicestershire for three-and-a-half months? An absurdity, but just another absurdity in the Metropolitan Police's Operation Midland,\" he told the court.\n\nHarvey Proctor giving evidence as Carl Beech looks on\n\nOperation Midland - the investigation into Mr Beech's claims - cost £2m and ended without any charges.\n\nMr Proctor said he was reassured by officers carrying out the search of his home that the media would not be told about it.\n\nThe former Conservative MP for Billericay said it was \"quite outrageous\" that Mr Beech's police liaison officer, Det Con Danny Chatfield, was a member of the search team and told Mr Beech what was happening.\n\nMr Proctor said Mr Beech then told a reporter about the police raid.\n\nMr Proctor previously told the court the consequent intense media interest led to him losing his job at the Belvoir Castle estate. He then decided he \"wasn't safe\" in the UK and moved to Spain, the court heard.", "E. Jean Carroll - seen here at an event in 2015 - has made the allegation in an article\n\nUS President Donald Trump has dismissed allegations that he raped a woman in a department store dressing room in the mid-1990s as \"fiction\".\n\nThe US president says he never met E. Jean Carroll and accuses her of making up the allegation to sell a new book.\n\nMs Carroll says she did not report the alleged attack at the time after being advised by a friend she had no chance of winning in court.\n\nHer story was published in New York magazine on Friday.\n\nMore than a dozen women have previously made sexual misconduct allegations against Mr Trump, which he has denied.\n\nIn the article, she describes meeting Mr Trump in late 1995 or early 1996, in Bergdorf Goodman. She says she recognised him as the \"real estate tycoon\" and that he told her he was buying a present for \"a girl\".\n\nShe says Mr Trump knew she was a TV agony aunt and the two joked around, encouraging each other to try on some lingerie.\n\nShe alleges that they then went to a dressing room, where she accuses him of raping her.\n\nBoth Mr Trump and Ms Carroll were aged around 50 at the time, and he was married to Marla Maples.\n\nMs Carroll says she told two friends about the alleged incident, one of whom advised her to go to the police.\n\nBut she says the other advised her against telling anyone saying: \"Forget it! He has 200 lawyers. He'll bury you.\"\n\nThe accusation is one of six alleged attacks by \"hideous men\" that Ms Carroll details in her article.\n\nAnother alleged incident involves Les Moonves, the former CEO of CBS. He resigned in 2018 after allegations of sexual misconduct.\n\nMr Moonves' representative told New York magazine he \"emphatically denies\" the incident.\n\nMs Carroll ends the article by saying Mr Trump was her \"last hideous man\" and she has not had sex since then.\n\n\"I've never met this person in my life,\" the US president said in a statement. \"She is trying to sell a new book - that should indicate her motivation. It should be sold in the fiction section.\"\n\nHowever, the New York magazine article included an image of Mr Trump and Ms Carroll together at an NBC party around 1987.\n\nWhen he was asked about the photo on Saturday, Mr Trump said: \"Standing with my coat on in a line, give me a break, with my back to the camera. I have no idea who she is.\"\n\nHe added: \"There is some picture where we're shaking hands it looks like at some kind of event. I have my coat on, I have my wife standing next to me, and I didn't know her husband but he was a newscaster. But I have no idea who she is.\"\n\nMr Trump encouraged anyone with information that the Democratic Party is working with Ms Carroll or New York magazine to notify the White House.\n\nMr Trump has described the allegations as \"a disgrace\"\n\nHe accused the publication of \"peddling fake news\" and called the magazine a \"failing business.\"\n\n\"Shame on those who make up false stories of assault to try to get publicity for themselves, or sell a book, or carry out a political agenda,\" he said.\n\n\"It's just as bad for people to believe it, particularly when there is zero evidence,\" he added.\n\nIn his statement, Mr Trump thanked Bergdorf Goodman, the upmarket New York department store where the incident allegedly took place, for \"confirming they have no video footage of any such incident\".", "Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt will face Boris Johnson in the run-off to become Conservative leader and prime minister.\n\nMr Hunt oversaw the London Olympics as culture secretary and was the UK's longest-serving health secretary.\n\nBefore entering Parliament, Jeremy Hunt had a career as an English teacher in Japan and as an entrepreneur.\n\nHe became the MP for South West Surrey at the 2005 general election, taking over from Virginia Bottomley.\n\nFrom 2005 to 2007, Mr Hunt was shadow minister for disabled people. It was a reward for supporting David Cameron, who attended Oxford University at the same time as him, in the Conservative leadership election.\n\nA reshuffle in 2007 saw Mr Hunt promoted to shadow culture secretary.\n\nIn 2009, he was found to have breached expenses rules and ordered to repay more than £9,500. He had allowed his agent to stay rent-free in his constituency property, which was designated as his second home.\n\nMr Hunt had claimed £19,117 in public money towards the property, but it was decided he hadn't benefited financially from the situation.\n\nWhen the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government was formed in 2010, Jeremy Hunt joined the cabinet as secretary of state for culture, Olympics, media and sport.\n\nIt was a key role in the run-up to London's 2012 Olympics and he worked closely with then London Mayor, Boris Johnson.\n\nMr Hunt campaigned on the importance of tourism during the Olympics. And he took the decision to double the budget for the Olympic and Paralympic ceremonies from £40m to £81m.\n\nThe Olympic opening ceremony was widely seen as a big success.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMr Hunt also put emphasis on creating a lasting legacy for the games.\n\nThe government gave Sport England £1bn to invest in grassroots sports, and Mr Hunt said there was an \"extraordinary chance\" to \"reinvigorate this country's sporting habits for both the young and the old\".\n\nBut in the years that followed there was only a small increase in the number of young people taking up sport.\n\nIn 2005-06 the proportion of over-16s in England who played sport for at least 30 minutes each week was 34.6%. By 2015-16, it was 36.1%.\n\nEarlier in 2012, his career was hanging in the balance. During the Leveson Inquiry into the culture and practices of the press, his contact with the Murdoch family came under scrutiny.\n\nMr Hunt was responsible for overseeing the proposed takeover of BSkyB by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.\n\nHe was criticised for failing to supervise his adviser's contact with News Corp, and for messages he exchanged with James Murdoch on the bid. His special adviser, Adam Smith, was forced to quit.\n\nThe inquiry released texts sent from Mr Hunt to News Corp lobbyist Fred Michel when it was bidding for BSkyB. The culture secretary addressed him as \"Daddy\" and \"mon ami\" - their wives had given birth in the same hospital in May 2010. Separately, in December 2010, he told Mr Michel there was \"nothing u won't like\" in a forthcoming speech.\n\nMr Hunt insisted he acted with \"total integrity\" during the bid process.\n\nAs culture secretary, Mr Hunt also led a government plan to launch local television stations across the UK. More than 30 had been set up before Ofcom later scrapped the roll-out of any further channels, because of limited interest from viewers and financial difficulties.\n\nCity TV, the holder of the local TV licence for Birmingham, was forced to appoint administrators to find a buyer before it was even launched, for example.\n\nMr Hunt also announced a deal with the BBC to freeze the licence fee for six years at £145.50 from 2010. He said high executive salaries and an advantage over commercial broadcasters were a cause for concern.\n\nThat was equivalent to a 16% budget cut in real terms and led to the BBC having to make savings, including 2,000 job losses.\n\nUnder the agreement, the BBC also took on responsibility for funding the World Service, the Welsh language channel S4C, and the roll-out of broadband to rural areas.\n\nJeremy Hunt was appointed health secretary in September 2012, with Maria Miller taking on his previous role.\n\nHe would eventually become the longest-serving health secretary in NHS history, surpassing its founder, Labour's Aneurin Bevan.\n\nBut Mr Hunt held office during the slowest period of investment in the NHS since its foundation - which created big problems.\n\nSince the NHS was established, health spending has risen by about 4% above inflation each year on average. Post-2010, as the coalition budget tried to reduce the deficit, this fell to about 1% a year.\n\nThis came as demands on the health service were growing.\n\nBetween 2005 and 2015, A&E visits went up by almost 30%. And during Mr Hunt's tenure as health secretary, the number of people in the population aged 85 and over went up by about a third.\n\nThe independent Office for Budget Responsibility said funding for the NHS needed to rise by 4.3% a year just to keep up with rising demand, without actively improving standards.\n\nFinancial difficulties led to more hospitals going into the red, as well as targets being missed in three main areas: cancer care, hospital appointments and A&E waiting times.\n\nNHS England has not met any of these targets since 2015.\n\nJust 85.3% of patients were seen at A&E departments within the waiting time target of four hours in January 2018. At least 95% of patients attending A&E are supposed to be either admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours.\n\nUnions, like the GMB, demanded his resignation.\n\nAs well as a series of austerity measures - which included extending a cap on pay increases for NHS staff - he was also criticised for his handling of the junior doctor contract row.\n\nMr Hunt said that changes to contracts were essential to deliver a seven-day NHS in England by 2020 - a pledge in the Conservatives' 2010 election manifesto.\n\nTo achieve this, the proposed contracts would mean evenings and Saturdays would be considered \"normal\" rather than \"unsocial\" hours and would no longer attract overtime pay.\n\nThe NHS's pay review body had said the cost of paying a premium on these \"unsocial hours\" put delivering a seven-day NHS out of reach.\n\nJunior doctors responded by tweeting pictures of themselves working weekend and late shifts, with the hashtag #ImInWorkJeremy.\n\nContract negotiations with junior doctors stopped and started and the British Medical Association eventually decided on industrial action.\n\nJunior doctors took part in a series of walkouts in 2016. On two strike days, between 08:00 and 17:00 even emergency care wasn't covered - the first time that had ever happened in the history of the NHS.\n\nPublic support for the strike was high, and even after doctors withdrew emergency care, the majority of the public (57%) still supported the strike and believed the government was more at fault (54%).\n\nA new contract for junior doctors was later imposed, after BMA members rejected a deal agreed by the government and union negotiators.\n\nDespite heavy criticism, Mr Hunt did go on to secure a funding increase for the NHS, totalling £20.5bn in real terms by 2023.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of an Ofsted-style system for rating hospitals and GP surgeries in England, ranking them on things like cancer, mental health and diabetes services.\n\nMr Hunt repeatedly referred in speeches to cases where individuals had received bad treatment in the NHS. He said he was horrified at the report into the Stafford Hospital scandal.\n\nHe went on to overhaul the inspection regime, introduce a new duty of candour on staff and fresh rules about whistle-blowers.\n\nSocial care was added to his brief in 2018. He spoke of the need to integrate social care, funded by local councils, with services delivered by the NHS.\n\nHe had already overseen a transfer of money from the NHS to council budgets from 2014. This shared budget was designed to tackle the problem of elderly people having to stay in hospital beds unnecessarily, because of a lack of care for them at home.\n\nAfter this, the number of these cases fell.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of the first national waiting-time target for mental health treatment. From April 2016, the NHS said at least 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis should begin treatment within two weeks of referral.\n\nMr Hunt became foreign secretary in July 2018, after his predecessor and now leadership rival, Boris Johnson, quit over Theresa May's Brexit strategy.\n\nIn March, he became the first Western foreign minister to visit Yemen since conflict there began.\n\nHe has faced criticism for allowing the UK to sell arms to the Saudi regime, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen. But he has previously defended UK-Saudi ties, saying Saudi Arabia is a \"very, very important military ally to the UK\".\n\nHis time as foreign secretary has not been gaffe-free. During a meeting on an official visit to China, he called his wife Lucia Guo \"Japanese\" - although she was born in Xian in central China.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. The foreign secretary tells Today he would include the DUP and ERG in Brexit talks\n\nA Remain campaigner in the 2016 EU referendum, Mr Hunt has since said he would vote Leave in a second vote. He said this was because of the \"arrogance of the European Commission\" in Brexit negotiations.\n\nHe also likened the Brexit negotiating tactics of the EU to the Soviet Union. The comparison provoked criticism from EU ambassadors and politicians and there were calls for an apology.\n\nMr Hunt says he want to negotiate a \"credible\" Brexit plan by securing changes to the controversial Irish backstop.\n\nHowever, he does not rule out leaving the EU without a deal if such an outcome becomes \"the only way to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBut unlike his leadership rival, Boris Johnson, he says the current departure date of 31 October is not a hard deadline.", "Supporters at a rally for Mohamed Ould Ghazouani, widely seen as the frontrunner\n\nMauritania has been voting in what may result in the first democratic transition of power since the West African country achieved independence in 1960.\n\nPresident Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz seized power in a coup in 2008, but has agreed to step down and abide by a two-term limit of office.\n\nVotes are now being counted and the result should be known next week.\n\nSix candidates are competing for the presidency.\n\nThe frontrunner is Mohamed Ahmed Ould Ghazouani, the country's defence minister and a close ally of the current president, BBC West Africa correspondent Louise Dewast reports.\n\nOpposition candidates also took part in a move seen as a positive step forward, after boycotting several previous polls.\n\nThe five other candidates include former Prime Minister Sidi Mohamed Ould Boubacar, and a well-known activist and anti-slavery campaigner, Biram Dah Abeid.\n\nThe country's electoral commission promised a free and fair election, despite claims by the opposition that it was biased in favour of the governing party.\n\nMauritania's press authority said on Friday that it had received no complaints about the coverage of the campaign.\n\nThe most critical issue on the campaign trail has been the standard of living, which every candidate has promised to improve.\n\nSlavery also remains an issue. Mauritania became the final country in the world to formally abolish slavery in 1981, but it continues to this day. Criminal laws allowing slaveholders to be prosecuted were passed in 2007, but have yet to be fully and effectively enforced.\n\nAfter Mauritania achieved independence from France in 1960, the country's first president held power for 18 years before being ousted in a military coup. More coups followed in 1984, 2005 and 2008.\n\nIf Saturday's election ends with no clear winner, a run-off election is due to be held on 6 July.", "Police were called to Rhydybont in Aberystwyth\n\nPolice are investigating the death of a 48-year-old woman in Aberystwyth.\n\nOfficers were called to the property in Rhydybont by the ambulance service at about 21:00 BST on Thursday.\n\nThe cause of the woman's death is unknown, following a post-mortem examination.

Campaigners have long called for full compensation for victims and their families covering loss of earnings and recompense for their mistreatment by the NHS.\n\nCurrently they get financial support intended to cover living costs. Compensation has not been delivered in the UK as it has in Ireland, hence Ann Dorricott's view that a promise had been broken. A spokesperson for Mr Hunt said he had increased financial support since the meeting and pushed for the inquiry.\n\nAs the hearings continue this year and next, former health secretaries will be called to give evidence and the former Prime Minister Sir John Major. The inquiry will probe the Government's handling of what's been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS.\n\nMrs Dorricott told the inquiry, sitting in Leeds, that a meeting had been held shortly after her husband's terminal diagnosis to discuss a \"fair and final settlement\" for the victims.\n\n\"When Mike told the room that it was terminal, Mike got very upset, very emotional,\" she said.\n\n\"Towards the end of the meeting, Jeremy Hunt came to myself and Mike, shook our hands and said to us, 'don't worry about this, we'll sort it'.\n\nThis sign was placed outside Jeremy Hunt's constituency office in Surrey after Mr Dorricott's death\n\nCounsel to the inquiry, Jenni Richards, asked Mrs Dorricott about her witness statement.\n\n\"You say in your statement this 'since that meeting he has not fulfilled his promise'. That is your view and that was Mike's view?\"\n\nA spokesman for Mr Hunt, currently foreign secretary, said: \"The Dorricott family are among thousands who have faced tragedy as a result of this appalling injustice.\n\n\"As well as increasing the financial support for victims, Jeremy pushed for this landmark inquiry because those affected have a right to know what went wrong and why.\"\n\nThe family said Mr Dorricott, who had mild haemophilia, had been given a contaminated blood product in 1982 during routine dental surgery in Huddersfield near his home in West Yorkshire.\n\nHe would only discover he had hepatitis C almost 25 years later, and numerous treatments and two liver transplants followed before he was told his condition was terminal in 2014.\n\n\"We tried to lead a normal life for the girls, but it was just out of our control,\" Mrs Dorricott told the inquiry.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "The singer was presented with the award at France's presidential palace\n\nSir Elton John has been awarded France's highest civilian award, the Legion d'Honneur.\n\nThe British musician was presented with the award by President Emmanuel Macron during a ceremony at the Élysée Palace.\n\nPresident Macron's office praised Sir Elton, 72, as a \"melodic genius\" and as one of the first gay artists to give a voice to the LGBT community.\n\nHe used his acceptance speech to promote his charity work.\n\nThe performer's charity, The Elton John Aids Foundation, has generated more than £310m for HIV prevention, education and support.\n\nDuring his speech he said how important the battle against AIDS was to him: \"Like music, the fight against AIDS has been my passion for many many years.\n\n\"And like music this fight reminds me every day of the extraordinary power of the human spirit.\n\n\"And that things that bind us are stronger than those that divide us.

You have no care for money or anything.\"\n\nAnother neighbour, who would only give her name as Fatima, told the BBC: \"I heard a female voice, shouting and screaming, and then I heard things smashing, it sounded like plates or glasses.\n\n\"I couldn't hear what she was saying but she sounded really angry.\"\n\nConservative MP Dominic Grieve told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he could not comment on the Guardian's report specifically but said character was relevant in the contest to be leader of the party.\n\n\"They are going to be in a position of responsibility where they have to make very important decisions,\" he said.\n\nThe former attorney general added: \"Clearly, things like reliability and honesty are very important things.\n\n\"And I think they matter in one's private and personal life, and also they matter in one's public life.\"\n\nCarrie Symonds has been in a relationship with Mr Johnson since 2018\n\nBoris Johnson would have preferred his politics - not his private life - to be making headlines.\n\nAs we enter the final stage of this leadership campaign the scrutiny of the two men who want the top job will no doubt increase.\n\nThere will be intense focus on their every move; their past, their present and their future.\n\nIt's not surprising given the importance of the job they want - running the country.\n\nBut does what allegedly happened in the London flat Mr Johnson shares with his partner really matter? His critics will say yes.\n\nThey argue that we need someone of good character who can make difficult decisions and work under pressure.\n\nSupporters of Boris Johnson disagree. Whatever happened, they say, was an entirely private matter between two people in a relationship which should never have been recorded by a neighbour.\n\nJournalist Sonia Purnell, who has written a biography of Mr Johnson, told the Today programme she believed it was important to know a future leader's character.\n\nShe said: \"It is the most unbelievably pressured job, crises will be coming at you day and night. You have to have equilibrium, a clear head, a stability in your life to be able to cope with that.\"\n\nBut, political commentator Tim Montgomerie told the BBC that until a complaint was made by Ms Symonds, the row \"should be a non-issue\".\n\nHe added: \"If there was any domestic violence, Boris Johnson's candidacy would be toast and would deserve to be.\n\n\"But all we have at the moment is a partially overheard conversation between two people late at night.\n\n\"Unless there is a complaint I think we should draw a line under this.\"\n\nSome of Mr Johnson's supporters have also taken to social media to defend him.\n\nBrexit minister James Cleverly questioned the motives of the \"person who recorded Boris and then gave the story to the Guardian\".\n\nTory MP Michael Fabricant appeared to confuse Camberwell with Islington but wrote he was glad he did not have \"nosey neighbours\" recording private conversations, sending them to newspapers and \"wasting police time for political advantage\".\n\nMr Johnson's relationship with Ms Symonds - a former director of communications for the Conservative party - became public after Mr Johnson and his wife announced they were divorcing in 2018.\n\nMs Symonds was seen in the audience during Mr Johnson's leadership campaign launch on 12 June.\n\nIn a statement, the Metropolitan Police said: \"At 00:24 on Friday 21 June, police responded to a call from a local resident in the SE5 area of Camberwell.\n\n\"The caller was concerned for the welfare of a female neighbour.\n\n\"Police attended and spoke to all occupants of the address, who were all safe and well.

There was a lack of tempo, imagination, movement, belief and, strangely, determination, with the likes of Kim Little and Erin Cuthbert looking far short of their world-class reputations.\n\nJapan had already been knocking on the door by the time Alexander looked slow to react as Iwabuchi - the forward handed a start after impressing as a substitute against Argentina - fired straight through the goalkeeper high into the net following a poor headed clearance from Corsie.\n\nTheir high press was forcing Scotland into aimless long balls forward, while their tiki-taka football was leaving their opponents looking disheartened and bewildered.\n\nRather than being Scotland's creative force, Little's biggest contribution was to head a Saki Kumagai header off the line after Alexander made a mess of coming for a cross.\n\nWhen Sugasawa crumpled dramatically to the ground, it looked like a soft penalty award, but the video assistant referees agreed with referee Lidya Tafesse's view that Corsie's ill-advised hand on the striker's shoulder was enough to award the spot kick.\n\nIt took 41 minutes for Scotland to threaten through Cuthbert's 20-yard drive on to the roof of the net, while Japan went close to going into the break three ahead when Hina Sugita found the face of the crossbar.\n• None How did you rate the players?\n\nAs against England, it was only in the last 15 minutes, having thrown caution to the wind and having introduced Emslie then Clelland, that Scotland began to look like a side deserving of a place at the World Cup finals.\n\nCuthbert found the outside of a post from close range and looked to be clipped from behind by Sugita only for the officials to ignore Scottish pleas.\n\nLisa Evans had a shot pushed wide by goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita before another cry for a penalty failed to even win a VAR review after Risa Shimizu looked to halt Cuthbert's progress with a hand ball.\n\nScottish pressure eventually told when Clelland gathered Nana Ichise's poor pass across the face of her own goal and produced a sublime finish from 18 yards, but the two minutes remaining quickly passed without an equaliser.\n\nClaire Emslie topped our Player Rater as voted by the public.

Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nThe crisis in the Gulf has moved up a gear, with the US providing the first element of the intelligence it insists demonstrates that Iran was responsible for Thursday's attacks on two oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman.\n\nAlthough much remains to be revealed about the incidents, as far as the Trump administration is concerned, the evidence is clear.\n\nThis inevitably raises questions about what happens next: how might the US respond? The stakes are high.\n\nWhat is the danger of a full-scale air and maritime conflict between Washington and Tehran?\n\nThe grainy video released by the Pentagon showing what is claimed to be a small Iranian vessel - its crew detaching an unexploded limpet mine from the hull of one of the two tankers attacked on Thursday - is a powerful first salvo in the battle to establish what actually happened.\n\nHowever, in the highly charged environment of the social media age, this is inevitably a struggle as much about perceptions as reality.\n\nTo their respective camps of critics, both the Iranian and Trump administrations are toxic.\n\nIran has denied from the outset any involvement, as it did with the four limpet-mine attacks on ships off the United Arab Emirates in May. The US has now blamed both episodes on Tehran. And there is a clear danger that this war of words could spill over into outright conflict.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nLast night, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo swiftly and categorically pointed the finger of blame at Iran.\n\n\"This assessment,\" he said, was \"based on intelligence, the weapons used, the level of expertise needed to execute the operation, recent similar Iranian attacks on shipping, and the fact that no proxy group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication.\"\n\nIran for its part was quick to deny any involvement in the incidents. Indeed it sought to deflect blame by arguing in effect that it was being framed.\n\n\"Somebody,\" an Iranian official asserted, \"is trying to destabilise relations between Iran and the international community.\"\n\nOn the face of things, the US Navy's video is persuasive. But it still leaves many questions unanswered. It was after all recorded some time after the initial explosions - when the Iranians, it seems, according to the implication of the US narrative - were seeking to remove some of the incriminating evidence.\n\nBut more needs to be revealed about the chronology of these attacks. When, for example, were the mines actually attached to the vessels?\n\nThe US has remarkable intelligence gathering capabilities in the region, where there is already a powerful US naval presence. More information will undoubtedly be available and a forensic examination of the damage to the two vessels should also yield further evidence.\n\nHowever, the burden of the US case goes way beyond this most recent attacks. Iran, the Trump administration insists, has form.\n\nMr Pompeo made an expansive case, insisting that \"taken as a whole, these unprovoked attacks present a clear threat to international peace and security, a blatant assault on the freedom of navigation, and an unacceptable campaign of escalating tension\".\n\nThese are hefty charges and the question inevitably follows: what is the US prepared to do about it?\n\nConcerted diplomatic action might be one approach; an effort to marshal international condemnation together with an effort to further isolate Iran through additional economic sanctions.\n\nIran's Islamic Revolution Guards is estimated to have more than 150,000 active personnel\n\nBut there is little doubt that stepped up sanctions, rightly or wrongly, have contributed to the current situation, increasing the pressure on Tehran, perhaps to the extent that some elements in the country - maybe the Revolutionary Guard Corps which maintains autonomous naval forces of its own - has decided to strike back.\n\nSo now what happens? Could the US seek to take some kind of punitive military response?\n\nWhat will be the view of its allies among the Gulf States and farther afield? And what could be the consequences of military action ?\n\nThere is a very real danger that Iran, if attacked, could launch a kind of hybrid war - both directly and through its proxies - carrying out sporadic and widely dispersed attacks on shipping and other targets, sending oil prices and insurance premiums up and perhaps encouraging further punitive responses.\n\nIt is an unpalatable prospect for all concerned, risking dangerous escalation. Nobody really thinks that either Iran or the US wants a full-scale conflict.\n\nFor the Americans, despite their considerable military power, an air and maritime war against Iran would raise all sorts of dangers.\n\nAnd President Trump, for all his sometimes bellicose rhetoric, has so far proved reluctant to take significant military action abroad. US strikes in Syria during his watch were largely symbolic.\n\nThe fear now is that Iran, through its own misreading of the situation, may have given the hawkish voices in the US administration the grounds they need to launch some kind of punitive response.\n\nThe danger, as ever, is for war by accident rather than by design.\n\nTehran and Washington are signalling their resolve to each other, but they may not be receiving quite the messages that each intends.\n\nIran, for example, may see the US build-up in the region partly as bluster and partly as an effort at intimidation in what it sees as its own backyard - intimidation that it is not disposed to accept.\n\nJust suppose elements in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, for example, misunderstand the signals.\n\nSuppose they believe that they have much more freedom to assert themselves in Gulf waters than the Americans are prepared to accept.\n\nIn other words, rather than as they may see it, \"pushing at the envelope\", they are straying into actions that Washington and its allies will simply not allow to go unpunished, This is a recipe for conflict, intentional or otherwise. These are dangerous times.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter?\n\nMany of Washington's allies, like France and Germany, are already urging caution.\n\nThe British foreign minister said that while the UK trusted the US, it would draw its own conclusion.\n\n\"We are going to make our own independent assessment, we have our processes to do that,\" Jeremy Hunt told the BBC's Today programme. \"We have no reason not to believe the American assessment and our instinct is to believe it, because they are our closest ally.\"\n\nMr Trump must weigh up any response carefully.\n\nWhen he first came to office, there were many - even Republican foreign policy experts - who refused to have anything to do with his administration, insisting that his mercurial and erratic approach to foreign affairs would provoke a crisis.\n\nFor a time, that looked as though it might involve North Korea or maybe even Syria. But each time, the moment of drama passed.\n\nNow a fully fledged crisis is facing the White House. How it responds will have crucial implications, not just for the Middle East, but also for the wider pattern of relationships between the US and its traditional partners in the Gulf and elsewhere, many of whom are unsure of how to deal with this president and his unique diplomatic style.", "Brenton Tarrant in his first court appearance in March\n\nThe main suspect in the Christchurch attacks in March, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.\n\nBrenton Tarrant is charged with the murder of 51 people, 40 counts of attempted murder and one terrorism charge in New Zealand's deadliest peace time mass shooting.\n\nAppearing via video link from prison, the 28-year-old Australian sat silently as his lawyer read out his plea.\n\nThe 15 March attack saw a gunman open fire on Muslims during Friday prayers.\n\nThis is the first time a terrorism charge has been brought in New Zealand.\n\nA number of the survivors of the attack and relatives of the victims were in court for the hearing, the BBC's Sydney correspondent Hywel Griffith reported.\n\nAs lawyer Shane Tait read out his client's not guilty pleas, a number of those present gasped and became tearful.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

It's just she hasn't been doing much of that defending in the White House press briefing room - the traditional venue for her position.\n\nThe Trump presidency has been unconventional in many regards. The steady erosion of the role of press secretary is only a small but notable part.\n\nMrs Sanders in recent months spent most of her time appearing on Fox News, answering shouted questions from reporters in the White House driveway, and chatting about mundane off-the-record details.\n\nTrying to explain the president's snap decisions, surprise policy announcements, and unexpected reversals and apparent contradictions in a formal setting was never an easy task, and Mrs Sanders - with the president's apparent blessing - eventually stopped trying.\n\nThe president, in effect, is his own press secretary, his own communications director and his own messaging guru.

Her people, the Portuguese people, had not turned up in sufficient numbers to vote in the recently held national referendum to change the country's conservative abortion law.\n\nAs someone who had endured the life-threatening brutality of back-street abortions she was dismayed the Portuguese - particularly the women - had passed up the chance to legalise the termination of pregnancies on request up to 10 weeks from conception.\n\nThe wholly avoidable deaths and distress suffered by thousands of women resorting to illegal abortions every year would continue. No wonder her father had said Portugal was no place for a woman, before packing off his talented teenage daughter to England to hone her painterly skills at The Slade School of Fine Art in London.\n\nShe sat in her Camden Town studio and fumed, determined to do something about the situation; to change public opinion back home; to make a difference. Which she did (the law was changed in 2007). By doing what she always did when overwhelmed with anger. She created a group of troubling, ominous images.\n\nPaula Rego's abortion series began with this dark and searingly honest Triptych, 1998\n\nRego's abortion pictures are as confrontational and direct as a John Humphrys interview.\n\nThere's no flim-flam, no tip-toeing around the topic: she gets straight to the point… which is darkly ambiguous.\n\nShe is both explicit and vague.\n\nThere is an equivocation that makes for uncomfortable viewing. Her truth resides in psychological complexity however awkward it may be. To Rego, the grim reality of a back-street abortion is not intellectually straightforward. It is not simply a case of a bad thing happening.\n\nLook at any of the imposingly large pictures she made in this series and you will be disturbed.\n\nThere is an uneasy eroticism bound up in the pain and the squalor. The schoolgirls and young women depicted challenge the unseen figure with a physicality and preparedness. Have they girded up their loins in anticipation of an impending termination or something else?\n\nWelcome to Paula Rego World, where there is always something nasty in the woodshed.\n\nWith Untitled No. 5, 1998 and others in her abortion series, Paula Rego says \"they are not pictures of victims\"\n\nTo see a Rego picture is to be thrust into the midst of a sinister gothic drama. A fat-ankled lady wearing a walnut-like skirt bends down to lift a prone dog by its front legs in Snare (1987). She leans forward as if to give the animal a sensual kiss, a red rose in the foreground suggests love. Near it, a crab lies powerless on its back mirroring the dog's vulnerability. It is rich with symbolism and menace.\n\nIt is also technically very good.\n\nThe red-to-brown palette has the tonal harmony of Picasso's impeccable portrait of Gertrude Stein (1905-6). The suggested volume of the figures is as convincing as a mirage in the desert. And the weight the lady's legs bear, and pressure of the grip with which she holds the dog, are palpable.\n\nIt is a very good figurative painting.\n\nSnare, 1987 is a key work full of symbolism - with the skirt concealing \"secrets\"\n\nIt marks the moment Rego found her signature style.\n\nThere had always been a strong narrative element to her work, whether back in the 1960s when she was making cut-up collages like The Imposter (1964) critiquing the Estado novo authoritarian regime in Portugal. Or, in the early '80s with abstracted, cartoon-like paintings such as Red Monkey Offers Bear A Poisoned Dove (1981), lampooning the love triangle she constructed between her husband and her paramour.\n\nPaula Rego criticised the Portuguese dictatorship in works like The Imposter, 1964\n\nBut these were works in progress towards the stylised tableaus and heavy-featured figures that are now instantly recognisable as a Paula Rego. Hers is an idiosyncratic aesthetic heightened later by the use of oil pastel crayons instead of acrylic paint, a mid-career decision made - I am told - in part to help her stop smoking.\n\nTurn 180 degrees from the Abortion Series hanging in the central space of the MK Gallery, and there, on the opposite wall, are her Dog Women pictures from the early 1990s.\n\nThey were inspired by the French Impressionist painter, Edgar Degas. He was an artist famous for his use of pastels and elevated perspective, from which he portrayed dainty dancers in ballet rehearsals. His representations of a woman's physique and inner life were voyeuristic, with a hint of the dirty-old-man about them. Rego's couldn't be more different.\n\nDegas' viewpoint of looking down on the model can be seen in Rego's Sleeper, 1994\n\nDancers, 1884-1885 by Degas, who influenced Rego with what she says were \"his marvellous use of pastels\"\n\nHer Dog Women are more like werewolves; snarling creatures that are both loyal and fiercely independent. The pictures are a response to the death of her husband, the artist Victor (Vic) Willing whom she met while a student at The Slade.\n\nShe considered Vic her intellectual and artistic superior, a point of view he was in no rush to counter. His critical eye helped her work develop but petrified his own. Life got complicated. He was already married. She went back to Portugal.\n\nVic left his wife and went to live with Paula. He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. They both had affairs. Her father died. Vic took over the family business and ran it into the ground. They returned to London, penniless. Paula found a lover to help pay the way. Vic began to paint again shortly before he died.\n\nTheirs was a passionate, painful, profound relationship, which Rego renders in pastel with disarming sincerity. Woman becomes dog-like, part domesticated and part wild animal. She lies on her owner's jacket in Sleeper (1994), is kicked out of bed in Bad Dog (1994), and roars in rage in Dog Woman (1994).\n\nPaula Rego with her husband Victor Willing, with whom she had a passionate but complicated relationship\n\nPaula Rego's belief that \"every woman's a dog woman, not downtrodden, but powerful\" is reflected in Dog Woman, 1994\n\nBut it is in Sit (1994) that Rego captures the specific and the universal of her marriage to Vic with an emotional intensity you won't quickly forget.\n\nThe female figure is doing as she has been told, sitting obediently in her chair. Her hands are behind her back, possibly bound. Her feet are crossed in the manner of the crucified Christ. She is pregnant.\n\nShe looks up and away at her tormentor, her owner, her lover. She is trapped, subjugated, but in no way tamed. Her eyes blaze with defiance, her body emits power. There is an air of sexuality and violence, love and hate; beauty and the grotesque.\n\nObedience and defiance are apparent in Sit, 1994, which seems to be a stark metaphor about Rego's marriage\n\nIt's not the best image ever created. It is not even the best image Paula Rego has ever created - The Dance (not in this exhibition) - is better.\n\nWe've seen plenty of male artists picturing woman in myriad different ways, but who else has painted the world from a female point of view in the manner described by Paula Rego?\n\nLouise Bourgeois and Frida Kahlo had similar concerns, and expressed them just as unflinchingly, But Rego's voice is more literary, painterly and poetic in the way of Edgar Allan Poe. She references the Brontë sisters, Edvard Munch, William Hogarth and Francisco Goya.\n\nShe is a romantic surrealist with a satirist's cutting edge.\n\nThe Duchess of Alba, 1797 was painted by the Spanish artist Goya who influenced the Portuguese-born Rego\n\nThe figure in Angel, 1998 is a symbol of female power and strength\n\nQuite why she is not more famous is difficult to fathom. Maybe her gender and style went against her? A bit too much for all those buttoned-up male museum directors whose stripped back modernist tastes ruled the roost for far too long.\n\nTheir time has come and gone.\n\nI can't recall another exhibition season quite like this summer's, when there are so many monographic shows dedicated to female artists being staged across the country.\n\nIt brings to mind the female figure in Sit. She knew her time would come. And so it has. It is now.", "Japan's Kokuka Courageous and Norway's Front Altair were attacked on 13 June\n\nThe US government has accused Iran of being behind explosions which have damaged two tankers in the Gulf of Oman on Thursday.\n\nThe Iranian administration has denied any involvement despite the US military releasing a video it claims shows Iranian special forces removing an unexploded mine from the side of one of the tankers.\n\nBut what can be said for certain and what could happen next? The BBC's defence and diplomatic correspondent Jonathan Marcus answers questions about the incident sent in by BBC News readers.\n\nMr G Riordan: Is there a salvage plan? Are the tankers guarded or escorted? Do the tankers have CCTV? How do we make the Strait of Hormuz safe? Is it an act of terror?\n\nA lot of good questions there. I suppose if it turns out to be a state actor, e.g. Iran, behind these attacks then one would not call them \"terrorist\" as such. Striking at another country's merchant ships might in some circumstances be considered an act of war.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter?\n\nA concerted effort to hamper normal shipping in the Gulf would also clearly have significant strategic implications. Currently tankers are not guarded, though in the past, e.g. during the Iran-Iraq war, a convoy system was introduced to shepherd tankers through these confined waters accompanied by warships.\n\nClearly, experts will now be assessing the extent of the damage to the two vessels. Modern merchant ships may well have CCTV on board to monitor key areas. How much help this might give to any investigation is unclear.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAnonymous: The Iranian government's past behaviour is a good indicator of their future intentions to create havoc if they are not stopped: but how?\n\nThis is certainly how the US and its allies see it. Iran has made threats against merchant shipping in the Gulf and, in the US view, is a highly destabilising actor in the region.\n\nIran clearly takes a very different view, insisting it has a right to pursue its own regional interests and specifically that it did not target any of these tankers.\n\nWhat people say and what people do may be different. Iran resents the US intrusion into the Gulf. It is opposed to US policy in the region in Syria and elsewhere.\n\nThe danger is that far from being frightened by the reinforced US military presence in the Gulf it may feel that it has some latitude to push back. This is one of the dangerous elements in this equation.\n\nRay: In this day and age with so much satellite observation why isn't there more proof of who the attackers are?\n\nWell, you are right, satellites can be helpful but many of the most capable intelligence-gathering variety tend to belong to a very small group of countries and even then their coverage is not total. They need to be tasked to look at specific areas.\n\nI have no doubt the US is monitoring Iranian activity in the Gulf from a variety of platforms: satellites; aircraft; communications and signals intercepts; radar tracking and so on. Governments tend to be cautious - especially the Americans - about showing their satellite data. Often they do not want to reveal the full extent of their capabilities.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nAs an aside, one of the most interesting developments over recent years is the use of civilian satellite data by security researchers and think tanks to significantly amplify our knowledge and to provide a separate source of satellite intelligence. This has, however, generally been used to study fixed locations, e.g. North Korean or Iranian rocket or nuclear facilities. It is very hard for such groups to monitor an area like the Gulf in real-time.\n\nHarry: I want to know how many vessels were hit by mines prior to the US escalating their presence in the region.\n\nThe \"escalation\" of the US military presence is to some extent a propaganda ploy by the US. The presence of a US aircraft carrier battle group for example - currently the USS Abraham Lincoln - is far from unusual. There has indeed been some reinforcement, notably a small number of warplanes; the return of a Patriot anti-missile battery; and a small amphibious unit.\n\nAgain, it is all about sending signals rather than necessarily preparing for conflict. But there is no doubt that the US retains a formidable military capability in the region.\n\nAs to chronology, the earlier limpet mine attack on the four vessels was on 12 May. Prior to this (around 10 May) the US had announced it was stepping up its deployments to the region following what it said were concerns that Iranian elements or proxy forces were planning a number of attacks against US interests. Specifically, they claim to have seen missiles being loaded onto boats. Subsequently that threat seems to have passed, but in the meantime the four tankers were mined.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Similar tactics to North Korea?\n\nAnd James: Do you think it was Iran behind these latest attacks, or is it USA trying to stir things up whilst Iran host Shinzo Abe, Japanese PM?\n\nLet's cut to the chase here. Is Iran the most likely country to be responsible for the attacks - probably yes.\n\nHas the United States made a 100 per cent case against Tehran? Not yet.\n\nWill Iran ever admit to these attacks even if its forces did carry them out? Clearly no.\n\nIs anyone else going own up to carrying them out? No.\n\nIt is not the BBC's job to ascribe blame but it is our job to bring the evidence to you, to describe the circumstances; and to report and to weigh-up what different people have to say. You then must come to your own conclusion.\n\nAs you can imagine many of the messages we get refer to wild conspiracy theories which betray more about their author's thinking than they do an assessment of real day-to-day events.\n\nThe US, having walked away from the nuclear deal, is clearly waging a campaign to pressure Iran. But to what end is not clear.\n\nThe demands made by key US officials of Tehran are simply unrealistic. The Trump Administration seems to be unclear as to its strategic goals.\n\nThinking the nuclear deal was a bad one and walking away from it is all very well. But to get a better deal in Mr Trump's terms appears to require Iran to radically change its behaviour and outlook; to almost cease being Iran. That is why critics of Mr Trump say that he really wants regime change in Tehran.\n\nThere certainly are people in his administration who support this. But equally Mr Trump, despite all his tweets and bluster, does not want to embark upon new overseas military commitments.\n\nIt also has to be said that all the other countries or organisations that were party to the nuclear deal (the JCPOA as it is known) think that whatever its flaws, that deal was better than no deal.\n\nThanks for all the questions.", "Hospital beds lie unwrapped while problems with vital systems such as the ventilation are rectified\n\nThe new critical care building at Belfast's Royal Victoria Hospital will open eight years late, the BBC understands.\n\nThe intensive care unit (ICU) will not become fully operational until at least autumn 2020.\n\nA consultant has described the development as \"extremely disappointing\".\n\nDr Brian McCluskey, who was involved in the original design, said patient safety must come first.\n\n\"We are all disappointed, not so much for ourselves but for our patients, because... whilst our patients are being very well cared for in the existing ICU... it would be nice if they were getting that additional privacy and dignity,\" he said\n\n\"But we know that the ICU will be open and it will be open for a very long time.\"\n\nThe 12-storey building in the grounds of the Royal Victoria Hospital has been dogged by problems.\n\nDue to open in 2012, the state-of-the art £150m building houses the Emergency Department, which opened its doors in 2015 due to winter pressures.\n\nDr Brian McCluskey said patients would be afforded greater dignity and privacy in the new building\n\nBBC News NI understands that millions of additional pounds have had to be spent correcting flaws including ripping out equipment that has become out-of-date due to the ongoing delay.\n\nAmong the questions being asked is how much, if any, the delay is costing the public purse.\n\nA spokesperson for the Department for Health said the Belfast Trust continues to update it on the delays.\n\nA spokesperson said the Belfast Trust was concerned about the continuing delay\n\n\"Whilst remedial and additional works to the facility have been necessary, costs to date remain within the approved investment for the project,\" the spokesperson added.\n\n\"As with all capital projects, the trust will be required to conduct a post-project evaluation which, in this case, will include a review of the events that took place and any lessons learned.\"\n\nDespite both the size and demand for this hospital and its services, many people seem to have forgotten about it.\n\nNumerous politicians had to be reminded about it when contacted by the BBC - and it is fair to say that both MLAs and medical unions had totally forgotten that the hospital even existed when contacted by the BBC for comment.\n\nWhile the additional costs could reach up to £10m, the BBC understands that an agreed out-of-court settlement with contractors may help provide some additional funding.\n\nThe current delay is over ventilation work being carried out on theatres in the ICU at an additional cost of over £3m.\n\nThe Royal College of Nursing's Garrett Martin expressed disappointment at the delays\n\nThe deputy director of the Royal College of Nursing, Garrett Martin, said the ongoing delay was \"incomprehensible and totally unacceptable\".\n\nMr Martin said the intensive care unit was designed to treat the sickest of patients and the fact it would not be operational for over another year was difficult to understand.\n\nThe original contractors for the building were McLaughlin and Harvey.\n\nIn 2017, when the BBC contacted them with a series of questions, they said they had no comment.\n\nAt the time, it was also reported that an internal report by the new contractors, Killowen Contracts Ltd and Michael Nugent Ltd, highlighted that new problems were being discovered on a \"regular basis\".\n\nThe BBC has contacted McLaughlin and Harvey for comment.", "Seventy two people died in the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017\n\nMore than 200 high-rise buildings in England with cladding similar to that used on Grenfell Tower are yet to have work to remove it.\n\nOut of 328 buildings that still have aluminium composite material (ACM) cladding, 221 are awaiting work to start.\n\nEvents on Friday will mark the second anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire in which 72 people died.\n\nThe government will pay £200m to remove ACM from privately owned blocks.\n\nThere have been calls for the funding to be extended to other forms of cladding and fire safety measures.\n\nThe government ordered a review into cladding on high-rise blocks following the tragedy, when a blaze broke out in the 24-storey block of flats in North Kensington, west London.\n\nIt took minutes for the fire to race up the exterior of the building, and spread to all four sides.\n\nA public inquiry into the disaster heard evidence to support the theory that the highly combustible material in the cladding was the primary cause of the fire's spread.\n\nAs of the end of May, 105 other high-rise buildings that had previously failed safety tests have had work to remove the cladding completed.\n\nThe data only covers ACM cladding and does not include buildings with other fire safety issues.\n\nAhead of the second anniversary of the fire, campaigners projected messages on to tower blocks in Salford, Newcastle and London which they said were unsafe.\n\nThe message on this Salford block says it has dangerous cladding\n\nThe projection on to the NV building in Salford, which has 246 flats, said it was \"still covered in dangerous cladding\" that was not covered by the government's cladding removal fund.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I very much put myself forward as the candidate focused on the future.\n\n\"And so I've decided to withdraw from the race and instead see how best I can advance those values within the party and the big and difficult tasks we've got ahead.\"\n\nMr Hancock said the remaining candidates all had \"admirable qualities\" and that all should take part in televised debates: \"The nature of this contest isn't just to be the leader of the Conservative Party. It's to be the next prime minister, and so that scrutiny is important.\"\n\nHe added: \"We stand at a defining moment in our country's history and we need to deliver Brexit, and then we need to cast forward and bring the country together. That's the goal.\"\n\nFurther ballots are scheduled to take place next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to whittle down the contenders until only two are left.

Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nConservative MPs may have whittled the contenders in the leadership race down to the final two - but it will not be politicians who will decide who gets to be the next prime minister.\n\nInstead it will be the party's grassroots members who will decide which of Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson gets to succeed Theresa May.\n\nThey will do so in a postal ballot, with the winner announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nIn other words, it is members of the public - those who pay £25 a year to join the Conservative Party - who get the final say on who leads the country.\n\nThere will not be a general election because the party is already in power.\n\nSo, who are the Conservative Party's members and what do they think on key issues, not least, of course, Brexit?\n\nThe Conservative Party membership is currently thought to be around 160,000 - a rise of more than 30,000 in the past 12 months.\n\nThe last time official figures were released was in March 2018, when they put the figure at 124,000.\n\nThat is way down on the peak of nearly 3 million that the party boasted in the early 1950s.\n\nThe Tories have far fewer members than the Labour Party.\n\nEven if we assume that Labour's membership has fallen from the late 2017 peak of more than 550,000, it still has a huge advantage over the Conservatives when it comes to campaigning on the ground.\n\nRight now, however, none of that matters as much as the fact that those 160,000 or so rank-and-file members of the Conservative Party have a crucial role.\n\nThey are going to be choosing the next prime minister of a country of over 65 million people - something which has never happened before.\n\nFrom studies of the 124,000 members that the party had in 2018, we know quite a lot about who they are and their beliefs.\n\nMost members of most parties in the UK are pretty middle-class.\n\nBut Conservative Party members are the most middle-class of all: some 86% of them fall into the ABC1 category used by market researchers to describe the top social grade.\n\nAround a quarter of them are, or were, self-employed and nearly half of them work, or used to, in the private sector.\n\nNearly four out of 10 put their annual income at over £30,000, and one in 20 put it at over £100,000. As such, Tory members are considerably better-off than most voters and, indeed, the members of other parties.\n\nOn the other hand, the fact that 97% of Conservative Party members are white doesn't do much to distinguish them from their counterparts in other parties.\n\nIt does inevitably mean, however, that ethnic minorities, who make up well over 10% of British people, are heavily under-represented in the Tory rank and file.\n\nSo, too, are women. Other parties - notably Labour and the Greens, but also the SNP - now come close to gender balance, but seven out of 10 Conservative members are male.\n\nTory members are also older than the members of most other parties. True, their average age may \"only\" be 57, but this disguises the fact that four out of 10 are over 65.\n\nThey are concentrated in the southern half of England. Nearly 60% of Tory members live in London, the east, south-east and south-west.\n\nSo much for demography and geography. What about ideology?\n\nWell, not surprisingly, Tory Party members are more right-wing than the population as a whole.\n\nOn a scale where zero represents very left-wing and 10 very right-wing, the average voter places themselves at the centre point. The average Conservative Party member places themselves at 7.6.\n\nThree-quarters of them believe, for instance, that young people today don't have enough respect for traditional values. Nearly six out of 10 support the death penalty.\n\nThey are also conventionally right-wing on some aspects of economic policy.\n\nFor example, only 15% of them believe that government should redistribute income from the better-off to those who are less well-off.\n\nBut on other issues they hold views that may be more unexpected.\n\nA third of Tory rank-and-file members believe that ordinary working people do not get their fair share of the nation's wealth and that there is one law for the rich and one for the poor.\n\nAbout half believe that big business takes advantage of ordinary people.\n\nInterestingly, they have also cooled on austerity. In the summer of 2015, some 55% said government spending cuts hadn't gone far enough, but two years later that had fallen to 28%.\n\nWhat Tory members haven't cooled on, however, is Brexit.\n\nIndeed, since we started tracking them in 2015, they've hardened their position.\n\nIt is clear that they are not supporters of the deal negotiated by Theresa May.\n\nIn fact, it is now the case that fully two-thirds of them back a no-deal Brexit - an outcome supported by only a quarter of voters as a whole.\n\nNor are they in the least bit keen on the idea of letting the public have another say on the UK's EU membership.\n\nSome 84% of them oppose the idea of a new referendum on the issue.\n\nIn short, the grassroots aren't simply sceptical on Europe; they can't wait to leave, whatever that might take.\n\nFurthermore, a breakdown of YouGov polling data suggests that the 30,000 or so members who have joined in the past year are even more likely to be pro-Brexit.\n\nThis, then, is the Conservative Party electorate.\n\nAnd those MPs hoping to succeed Mrs May will need to pitch their promises accordingly.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from experts working for an outside organisation.\n\nTim Bale is Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.", "A Chinook helicopter lifts large bags to plug the breach in the River Steeping\n\nRAF crews have dropped more than 100 tonnes of ballast to block a breach in a river bank which caused severe flooding in a town.\n\nThe River Steeping burst its banks at Wainfleet All Saints, Lincolnshire, on Wednesday after the equivalent of two months' rain fell in two days.\n\nA state of emergency was declared on Thursday with more than 70 properties flooded and residents evacuated.\n\nThree Chinook helicopters were at the scene on Friday evening.\n\nIan Reed, the head of emergency planning in Lincolnshire, said: \"We're confident that we are definitely seeing a change and, whilst water levels are not going to go down really quickly, it is helping and it's doing exactly what we wanted it to do.\n\n\"So, that operation has been a success.\n\n\"It's a temporary measure, but it's doing what it set out to achieve.\"\n\nA firefighter was taken to hospital with minor injuries after he was injured moving equipment overnight on Thursday in Wainfleet.\n\nAssistant Chief Constable Shaun West of Lincolnshire Police said the rescue effort was showing some early signs of success.\n\n\"Where there were thousands of gallons of water gushing through that breach when I started, that is starting to stem.\"\n\nCrews are dropping ballast and sand in a bid to block a breach in the River Steeping\n\nOfficials said the operation is expected to continue until late in the evening\n\nThe river breached its banks near Wainfleet All Saints after persistent heavy rainfall\n\nResidents in Wainfleet were still being removed by fire crews on Friday\n\nThe town had more than two months' rain in just two days\n\nA rest centre for Wainfleet residents was set up in nearby Skegness.\n\nParts of Wainfleet were badly hit by the flooding\n\nPolice praised the community spirit shown by people in Wainfleet who helped with the recue effort\n\nJean Hart, who has lived in Wainfleet for 40 years, said it was the worst flooding she had ever seen.\n\n\"To see our house under water is absolutely horrendous,\" she said. \"The whole of my house is completely devastated.\"\n\nWainfleet resident Jean Hart posted a picture of the flood waters in her bathroom\n\nShe was reunited with her tortoise, Mr T\n\nShe said she and her husband Kevin were now at a loss as to what to do.\n\n\"[You realise the] things you take for granted,\" she said.\n\n\"It's not just us - so many people are in the same situation and my heart goes out to them.\"\n\nFollow BBC East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

which was eventually awarded by VAR, with an offside Sam Kerr controversially judged not to have been interfering - completed Australia's remarkable comeback.\n\nThe Australians, who are ranked sixth in the world, are now level with Brazil and the Italians on three points in Group C, before Jamaica and Italy meet in their second match in Reims on Friday, in the most evenly poised group at the tournament.\n\nBrazil, who beat Jamaica last time out through a memorable Cristiane hat-trick, had not lost a group stage match at the finals since 1995.\n\nAnd the 2007 runners-up appeared to be in full control of Thursday's thriller in Montpellier upon entering first-half stoppage time, before Foord's close-range finish gave Australia hope.\n\nMarta, who missed Brazil's first game through injury, arrived in France with a one-goal lead in the Women's World Cup goal standings over former Germany star Birgit Prinz and ex-USA forward Abby Wambach, who both retired with 14 goals at the finals.\n\nAnd the Orlando Pride star's 16th saw her become Brazil's record scorer at senior World Cups as she surpassed iconic former Real Madrid forward Ronaldo's 15, while moving level with Germany's Miroslav Klose at the top of the standings.\n\nShe coolly converted from the spot after Australia's Elise Kellond-Knight had dragged back Leticia Santos in the box, before Cristiane's fine leap and header into the corner made it 2-0.\n\nAt that stage, the Brazilians were almost unrecognisable from the disappointing team that finished bottom of this year's invitational SheBelieves Cup in the United States in March.\n\nFacing a second defeat from two matches, Australia were seemingly on the brink of elimination from a tournament they had entered with high hopes of challenging to win.\n\nSome of their players appeared to display anger and frustration towards each other after conceding the second goal, but they defiantly rallied together - spurred on by a lively crowd - and showed their determination to stay in the competition.\n\nKerr's darting runs in to the box caused Brazil's defence significant problems, and she had a role to play in both of their second-half goals.\n\nShe attacked the six-yard box as Logarzo's cross bounced towards goal and, although she did not get a touch on it, her intent was enough to distract the goalkeeper.\n\nVAR has a say once again\n\nMoments before initially falling behind, Australia wanted a penalty of their own, after Tameka Yallop was brought down by Thaisa, but after studying VAR, it became clear that Yallop's hand had made contact with the ball seconds earlier.\n\nAnd the VAR drama continued with the game's decisive goal, as a long, dangerous ball forward - aimed towards the offside Matildas captain Kerr - flicked off Monica's head and dropped in to the far corner of the net, but the officials felt Kerr's role was not sufficient to disallow the goal, even though Monica had been trying to track Kerr's run.\n\nNevertheless, the Australians - who have serious ambitions to go beyond the quarter-finals of this competition for the first time this summer - deserved praise for their fighting spirit as they pulled off a controversial but terrifically entertaining comeback.\n\n'Hopefully this brings Australia together' - what they said\n\nAustralia coach Ante Milicic: \"Tonight is one of the finest Australian performances that I've seen. The players deserve all the rewards they were given. They never stopped believing. Hopefully this brings our country together.\n\n\"As the game went on we looked very strong. Physically, we're in great condition. Recovery is going to be important for us and then we move forward to the Jamaica game.\"\n\nAustralia midfielder Chloe Logarzo: \"The Australian mentality is to be able to come out swinging when our back is against the wall. We finally found our composure, kept the ball on the ground and were able to connect our passes.\"\n\nBrazil goalscorer Marta: \"It was supposed to be a very competitive match, and that's what we had. We came here to win and advance to the next stage. Now, it's worthless to lament the result. We are still fighting for our spot and should focus on that.\"\n\nBrazil's other goalscorer Cristiane: \"The plan was to wait for them, looking for counters.

Such responses could include an increased emphasis on information and cyber operations.\n\nThe SRR is trained in a variety of techniques including physical and technical surveillance, such as planting cameras in insurgent-held territory, eavesdropping and close-proximity hacking.\n\nIt remains up for debate whether this new concept would see the stepping up of a shadow war against proxy forces - serving the interests of countries such as China, Iran and Russia - that could occasionally turn violent.\n\nBritish politicians' appetite for risk is limited and the capture of a party of Special Forces operators and MI6 officers in Libya eight years ago showed the potential for embarrassment that comes with such missions.\n\nYou can watch Newsnight on BBC Two weekdays at 22:30 or on iPlayer, subscribe to the programme on YouTube and follow it on Twitter.", "Betty Campbell taught at Mount Stuart Primary School in Butetown for 28 years\n\nSculptor Eve Shepherd has been chosen to create a statue of the first black head teacher in Wales.\n\nBetty Campbell - who died in 2017 - was a champion of multi-cultural education in Cardiff's Butetown community.\n\nHer family, who were involved in the selection, said the design \"really captures the essence of our mother\".\n\nMs Shepherd, chosen from a shortlist of three, has recently been commissioned for statues of physicist Prof Stephen Hawking.\n\nThe statue is due to be unveiled in a new public square opposite the new BBC Wales headquarters in Central Square in 2020.\n\nMs Shepherd, born in Sheffield and living in Brighton, has been called \"unique in the world of modern sculptors\".\n\nShe and two other contemporary female sculptors were asked to submit design ideas and initial model to a panel set up by Monumental Welsh Women (MWW).\n\nMrs Campbell was chosen from a public poll of five \"hidden heroines\" from Welsh history.\n\nOrganisers said it would be the first statue of a named, real woman in Wales.\n\nBetty Campbell was born to a Jamaican father and Welsh Barbadian mother in 1934\n\nBetty Campbell during a royal visit to her school in 1994.

Her body has never been found.\n\nDuring the seven-week trial, the prosecution painted a bleak picture of Margaret's life before she disappeared.\n\nAn only child, she was brought up in the town of Port Glasgow, Inverclyde, and faced challenges from an early age.\n\nAt Slaemuir Primary School, Margaret struggled with reading and writing, and she continued to require additional support as a pupil at Port Glasgow High.\n\nBut two defining events ultimately led her into the care of her killers.\n\nMargaret was described as a quiet figure at school\n\nIn January 1993, her parents Derek and Margaret divorced after 20 years of marriage.\n\nThe schoolgirl was 12 when she left the family home to move in with her father and grandparents.\n\nThe jury heard Margaret had a bad temper and was described by her mother as difficult to handle.\n\nIn contrast, she was a quiet figure in the classroom and required constant encouragement.\n\nIn a 1995 report, teacher Elizabeth Brown wrote: \"Margaret Fleming has moderate learning difficulties. She works fairly well to her ability but needs written instructions set out simply and gone over verbally.\"\n\nIn evidence she said: \"If you left Margaret on her own she would do very little. You had to prod her to do the work. Her marks were all at the very bottom end of the school.\"\n\nOn one rare occasion another teacher put on record her gratitude to the teenager for helping her with registration.\n\nThis provided one of the most poignant moments of the trial at the High Court in Glasgow.\n\nMs Brown recalled: \"She clearly thought Margaret deserved a letter of praise, which Margaret wouldn't have got many of during her schooling.\"\n\nAnother retired teacher, Elaine Moore, said: \"She was quite isolated. Her and her dad were a wee unit. She was concerned about him and he was concerned about her.\"\n\nMr Fleming, a tradesman who retrained as a lawyer, was so protective of his daughter he didn't tell her why he had been taken in to hospital. He had been diagnosed with terminal cancer.\n\nHis condition had deteriorated by 20 October 1995, when his ex-wife took Margaret to Inverclyde Council's social work office.\n\nThe meeting was arranged to discuss her behavioural problems, which included arguing with her grandparents.\n\nThe referral said: \"Margaret does not know why her father is in hospital and is afraid it is something serious.\"\n\nIt also noted the child was always with her father and felt \"rejected\" by her mother.\n\nThe report continued: \"I feel like Margaret is a rather lonely, isolated girl who is living with elderly grandparents.\n\n\"Margaret appears to be surrounded by a great deal of uncertainty and ill health.\"\n\nFive days after the meeting, Mr Fleming lost his battle with cancer.\n\nHis death not only devastated Margaret but proved to be the catalyst for her eventual move from Port Glasgow to Inverkip, 10 miles along the Clyde coast.\n\nThe couple's Seacroft home sits on the banks of the Firth of Clyde\n\nMr Fleming thought that his parents were too old to take care of his daughter.\n\nHe had earlier told his fiancée Jean McSherry that if anything happened to him, Eddie and Avril would look after Margaret.\n\nDuring the trial Margaret's mother, 71-year-old Margaret Cruickshanks, recalled how she first met Cairney.\n\nShe said: \"After Derek died they were at the funeral. Eddie Cairney came and approached me and said if I needed any help with Margaret he would give me respite care.\"\n\nEddie Cairney had offered to help with respite for Margaret\n\nThe court heard Margaret initially lived with her mother but later spent up to a fortnight at a time staying with Cairney and Jones at their dilapidated home, which was named Seacroft.\n\nMs Cruickshanks said her daughter was even more difficult to cope with after the loss of her father.\n\nShe added: \"She would come back from school and I'd say: 'What were you doing?'\n\n\"Her temper would be up and she would batter me.\"\n\nA month after Mr Fleming's death, Margaret and her mother met Inverclyde Council social worker Denise Munro in a bid to secure support from the additional needs team.\n\nMs Munro recalled: \"She was quite a naïve girl, quite vulnerable, quiet, lonely, sad and did not have many friends.\"\n\nShe said there had been a strained relationship between mother and daughter.\n\nGiving evidence, she added: \"When I went to their house to pick up Margaret I would have a conversation with her mum, who found it difficult.\n\n\"She had lived on her own and had an adolescent girl who was missing her dad.\"\n\nThe back garden of Seacroft, where Margaret lived with Cairney and Jones\n\nMs Munro continued to support the teenager until she went on maternity leave in July 1996.\n\nBy this time, Margaret had enrolled on a skills for life course at James Watt College in Greenock and appeared to have settled down.\n\nBut that August, Ms Cruickshanks told the social work department that her daughter's behaviour had deteriorated.\n\nBut she received no further support and no-one stepped into Ms Munro's role.\n\nThe living room of the house in Inverkip\n\nAll ties between mother and daughter were finally severed after a chilling confrontation on 26 November, 1997.\n\nMs Cruickshanks told the jury she was attacked by Cairney after travelling to Inverkip to tell him she wanted her daughter to come home.\n\nShe said Margaret, who struggled with her weight, was then brought downstairs from her attic bedroom and asked where she wanted to live.\n\nMs Cruickshanks said: \"I think she was a bit nervous and she turned round and said she wanted to stay there. There was nothing I could do about it.\"\n\nShe later called the police who went to check on Margaret.\n\nMemories of that night reduced her to tears in the witness box as she recalled: \"The police came back to say she was alright. As far as I knew that was where she was living.\n\n\"I didn't visit any more. I got a letter. It said she didn't want to see me any more.\"\n\nIn the months that followed, Margaret became more reclusive and Cairney told the jury he tried to stop the teenager self-harming by putting cardboard tubes on her arms.\n\nIn October 1999, Margaret saw her GP, Dr James Farrell, for the last time.\n\nHe told the court she had \"quite significant learning difficulties\" and said she might have had Sotos syndrome from birth - although a definitive diagnosis of the rare disorder was never made.\n\nThe GP also said she was \"socially and educationally\" isolated and referred her to a psychologist.\n\nDr Alan Smith visited Seacroft before Christmas but all attempts to contact Margaret to arrange another appointment came to nothing.\n\nThe three-week timeframe during which detectives believe Margaret was murdered was narrowed down by the testimony of Avril Jones' brother, Richard, and mother, Florence.\n\nThe last confirmed sighting of Margaret was at Richard Jones' new home in Inverkip on 17 December 1999.\n\nFlorence Jones remembered Margaret as a \"very, very quiet girl\" who was unable to look after herself due to her learning difficulties.\n\nThe 79-year-old played a key role in the chronology of the case.\n\nThe last known photograph of Margaret was taken in March 1999\n\nHer most recent memory of Margaret was at her ruby wedding celebrations in March 1999, and a photograph from that night is the last known image of the teenager.\n\nCrucially, Mrs Jones had no recollection of Margaret joining the family at Mr Jones' house for Christmas dinner in 1999.\n\nThere was also no sign of her in the photos taken that day.\n\nOn 5 January, 2000 Mrs Jones spoke to her daughter on the phone.\n\nThe pensioner told the court: \"She said Margaret had left with a traveller. I wasn't sure what had happened. It was up to them.\"\n\nAs the months turned to years, memories faded and not one person saw fit to report that a teenage girl had simply disappeared off the face of the earth.\n\nIndeed it was not until October 2016 that a missed appointment for a benefits review finally led police to Seacroft.\n\nThe couple produced letters which they claimed had been written by Margaret\n\nThe couple's attempts to cover their tracks, while Avril Jones fraudulently claimed £182,000 in benefits, included producing letters which were said to be from Margaret.\n\nOne was said to be from Carlisle on 9 January 2000 and the other two were from the Regent Palace Hotel in Piccadilly Circus, London, on 13 January, 2000.\n\nAs part of the complex investigation that followed detectives showed the typed letters to Jacqueline Cahill, who taught Margaret standard grade English at Port Glasgow High between 1994 and 1996.\n\nShe told the court the teenager would not have been capable of writing them.\n\nMs Cahill said: \"She had literacy difficulties.\n\n\"She struggled to put pen to paper. She struggled to read, and read at about the level of an eight-year-old.\"\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nBut despite her struggles in the classroom, the teacher told BBC Scotland Margaret, who would now be 38, had the potential to hold down a job that did not require some numeracy and literacy skills.\n\nShe added: \"If she had stayed in Port Glasgow, she would have stayed in touch with her friends, but moving to Inverkip probably made it easier for Margaret to slip off the radar.\n\n\"I don't even want to imagine what her life was like when she was living in Inverkip.\"\n\nThe teenager's life and death has had a profound impact on Ms Cahill.\n\nShe said: \"There isn't anyone who remembers Margaret.\n\n\"I taught her for two years and I am here speaking about her as a person and I am one of the only people who remembers her.\n\n\"That is one of the saddest things that this wee girl was forgotten - abandoned with supposed carers, and forgotten about for 20 years.\"", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nEngland booked their place in the World Cup knockout stages after beating a resolute Argentina thanks to Jodie Taylor's first goal in 14 months.\n\nPhil Neville's side looked as though they would pay for Nikita Parris' missed first-half penalty, which was saved by the brilliant Vanina Correa after Alex Greenwood was tripped.\n\nThe Argentine goalkeeper also denied Beth Mead, Parris and Taylor, but had no chance in stopping Euro 2017's golden boot winner, as she tapped in Mead's low cross after 61 minutes.\n\nThe victory for England, who are ranked third in the world - 34 places above Argentina - means they qualify for the second round and can seal top spot in Group D with a point against Japan in their final game on Wednesday.\n\nIn front of a crowd of 20,294 in the industrial city of Le Havre, it was also the first time England have won their first two World Cup matches.\n\nBut they were made to battle for it against a determined Argentina, who won their first ever World Cup point in their opening draw with 2011 champions Japan and have had to overcome hardships in the last few years.\n• None Football Daily podcast: England through to the knockout stages - can Scotland join them?\n• None How you rated the players: England v Argentina\n• None England camp 'having time of our lives' - Neville\n\nTaylor comes to England's rescue again\n\nNeville said that he was prepared for a game which would evoke the footballing \"history and rivalry\" between the two countries, and expected Argentina to defend with vigour and passion.\n\nSo it was no surprise that England started as if they were eager to score early on, but were often let down by a poor final ball.\n\nMead was guilty of that on several occasions, yet she and Greenwood were the source of many England attacks down the left. That was in contrast to the Lionessess' opening game, when Parris and Lucy Bronze thrived down the right.\n\nDespite those early lapses, it was Mead who twice broke Argentina's resistance. The Arsenal winger played in Greenwood before she was tripped by Ruth Bravo, leading to Parris's spot-kick.\n\nThe England winger, who had buried a penalty against Scotland in England's opening game, this time went the other way and struck it with less venom, allowing Correa to tip it on to the post.\n\nThe Argentine goalkeeper also stuck out a leg to deny Mead before the break, and denied Parris again after the newly-signed Lyon forward struck a booming shot after a free-kick was cleared.\n\nAs the game reached the hour mark, it seemed as if Correa's goal was impenetrable, but the latter of two flowing moves led to Taylor's goal and the 33-year-old, who had not scored since a World Cup qualifier in April 2018 - or in 363 minutes of football - celebrated her 18th England goal with enthusiasm.\n\nHaving scored five times at Euro 2017 where England reached the semi-finals and once at the 2015 World Cup, where England finished third, she once again showed she has an appetite for the big occasion, which may prove crucial as England seek to win their first major tournament.\n\nArgentina, who did not have a team for two years between 2015 and 2017 after a lack of backing from their federation, are appearing in their first World Cup for 12 years.\n\nBack in 2007 they lost 6-1 to England, but they are a far more competitive outfit now, despite not enjoying the salaries or support of their opponents, who Neville described as being \"blessed\".\n\nThat gulf in resources was not matched on the pitch, however, as Carlos Borrello's well-drilled side got players behind the ball and defended stoutly with the kind of \"rebel spirit\" that their manager had spoken of prior to the game.\n\nThat was summed up by Correa, who palmed Parris' penalty onto the post after 28 minutes, and then superbly stopped Mead's effort before making her best save to deny Parris again.\n\nArgentina's first effort on goal was after 21 minutes, an overhit free-kick which Carly Telford, making her debut World Cup appearance at the age of 31, easily gathered.\n\nThey also only had 24% possession, yet forward Sole Jaimes and number 10 Estefania Banini caused occasional problems for the England defence, and the team's robust style certainly ruffled some of the England players.\n\nNeville's England, however, will be pleased to come through a tough test again, and give themselves a chance to rotate their squad for the final group game against Japan, who earlier beat Scotland 2-1 to sit second in the group on four points.\n\nEngland manager Phil Neville on BBC One: \"Jodie Taylor was phenomenal tonight.\n\n\"It should have been more, but I stood in the warm-up and saw their goalkeeper - she was unbelievable even in the warm-up. If you're like that before the game you're not always like that in the game, but she was outstanding. What you've seen tonight is an unbelievable goalkeeping performance.\n\n\"We want to beat Japan, they were outstanding against Scotland today.\n\n\"We'll go to Nice now and get some sun on our backs. Our players and enjoying it, we're having the time of our lives.\"\n\nEngland goalscorer Jodie Taylor: \"It is a good performance today by the team and good win. I remember Beth Mead playing a perfect ball which landed right on my foot. I was in the right place at the right time.\n\n\"Patience was the key, we said it all week. We have had experience facing a block of defence through qualifying and got frustrated, but today we had the quality and it paid off.\n\n\"I went to the corner and saw Jordan Nobbs on punditry and I gave her a wave as well as some family.

On 5 January of the following year, Jones told her mother that Margaret had run off with travellers.\n\nThere have been no sightings of her since, and detectives were unable to establish how she died or what happened to her body - although a former firefighter told the trial he once smelled what he believed was burning human flesh coming from a bonfire at Cairney and Jones' home.\n\nThe pair tried to cover their tracks by travelling to London, and letters purporting to be from Ms Fleming were posted to their home in a bid to cover up their crime.\n\nBogus diary and calendar entries were also written to suggest Ms Fleming had left the house voluntarily.\n\nDespite this her benefits continued to be paid into Jones' account, without challenge, for more than a decade.\n\nThe trial heard that a benefits investigator attempted to visit Ms Fleming in June 2012 but was told by Jones that she would not see her.\n\nThe investigator said a duty social worker should have visited the \"totally chaotic\" property to follow up on the young woman's welfare, but no-one did.\n\nWhen police were finally alerted four years later it was as a result of an application for Personal Independence Payments (PIP) - which had been filled out by Jones.\n\nIn it she wrote that Ms Fleming \"needs constant care\", had self-harmed and was \"caught eating out of a dog bowl\".\n\nA social worker phoned Jones to offer help and was told Ms Fleming had not been to the doctor, despite picking a hole in her head.\n\nPolice Scotland subsequently launched a missing persons' investigation in October 2016 but an extensive search of the house - which included two downstairs bedrooms full of rubbish - and its grounds failed to uncover any trace of Ms Fleming.\n\nDespite their suspicions, detectives did not have enough evidence to charge the couple - but that changed after Cairney made a series of outlandish claims in interviews with journalists including BBC Scotland's Suzanne Allan in October 2017.\n\nHe said Ms Fleming had become a \"gangmaster\" and was also \"buying and selling\" drugs.\n\nCairney later told the trial that he had met Margaret in London two years ago.\n\nCairney and Jones were detained on 25 October of that year at Glasgow Central Station as they attempted to board a train to London while carrying £3,500 in cash.", "Two more hospital patient deaths have been linked to an outbreak of listeria in pre-packed sandwiches and salads.\n\nFriday's announcement from Public Health England (PHE) takes the number of confirmed cases from six to nine and the deaths from three to five.\n\nLast week PHE confirmed two patients from Manchester Royal Infirmary and one at Aintree Hospital had died.\n\nSandwiches and salads from the Good Food Chain linked to the outbreak have been withdrawn and production stopped.\n\nEvidence suggested all individuals ate the affected foods before the product withdrawal took place in hospitals on 25 May, PHE said.\n\nThe chain -

When we lump it all together and become desensitised, we devalue those important arguments we need to have.\"\n\nAs part of its review, the ASA brought together members of the public and showed them various adverts to gauge how they felt about how men and women were depicted.\n\nOne of them was a 2017 television advert for Aptamil baby milk formula, which showed a baby girl growing up to be a ballerina and baby boys engineers and mountain climbers.\n\nThe ASA found some parents \"felt strongly about the gender based aspirations shown in this advert specifically noting the stereotypical future professions of the boys and girls shown.\n\n\"These parents queried why these stereotypes were needed, feeling that they lacked diversity of gender roles and did not represent real life.\"\n\nAt the time it was released, the campaign prompted complaints but the ASA did not find grounds for a formal investigation as it did not break the rules.\n\nHowever, Fernando Desouches, managing director of marketing agency New Macho, which specialises in targeting men, said this was an example of a past advert that would not pass the new ASA legislation.\n\nHe said it showed how easy it can be for \"deeply entrenched views on gender to come through in an ad that purports to be caring and nurturing of future generations.\" He was \"unsurprised it generated a backlash\".\n\nOther situations likely to fall foul of the new rule include:\n\nHowever, the new rules do not preclude the use of all gender stereotypes. The ASA said the aim was to identify \"specific harms\" that should be prevented.\n\nSo, for example, adverts would still be able to show women doing the shopping or men doing DIY, or use gender stereotypes as a way of challenging their negative effects.\n\nThe ASA outlined the new rules at the end of last year, giving advertisers six months to prepare for their introduction.\n\nMr Parker said the watchdog was pleased with how the industry had already responded.\n\nThe ASA said it would deal with any complaints on a case-by-case basis and would assess each advert by looking at the \"content and context\" to determine if the new rule had been broken.", "Chelsea have agreed a deal in principle for their manager Maurizio Sarri to join Serie A champions Juventus.\n\nAn agreement was reached late on Thursday evening after talks between senior officials. A deal could be completed as early as Friday.\n\nIt is understood a compensation fee in excess of £5m has been agreed.\n\nSarri arrived from Napoli in July 2018 and led the Blues to third place in the Premier League and won the Europa League in his one season in charge.\n• None Why Sarri is leaving Stamford Bridge with stock higher than when he arrived\n\nDespite signing a three-year deal last July, he will become the ninth full-time manager to leave the club under Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.\n\nThroughout the 60-year-old Italian's time at Stamford Bridge there was repeated speculation about his position, with Chelsea fans expressing their discontent at tactics and team selections.\n\nOne of the low points came in February when goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga challenged his authority by refusing to be substituted in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley, shortly before Chelsea were beaten in a penalty shootout by Manchester City.\n\nBut Sarri did manage to win his first ever trophy as manager with a 4-1 victory over Arsenal in May in the Europa League final, and after the match said \"he deserved\" to stay with the club.\n\nChelsea are currently unable to sign any players after they were banned for two transfer windows by Fifa - a decision they are appealing at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.\n\nTheir star player Eden Hazard has joined Real Madrid for a fee that could exceed £150m.\n\nSignificantly, Chelsea have not asked for the suspension to be put on hold until a final decision is reached. It means their only new arrival might be USA forward Christian Pulisic, a £58m signing from Borussia Dortmund in January, who spent the remainder of the campaign on loan in Germany.\n\nJuventus are managerless after Massimiliano Allegri left at the end of last season, having won the league title in each of his five seasons since taking charge in 2014.\n\nAfter earning glowing references for his tactics at Napoli, he looked to have effectively introduced 'Sarri-ball' to his new players as Chelsea started their Premier League campaign with a 12-game unbeaten streak.\n\nBut the Blues were out of title contention after losing three out of four Premier League games from January to February, including a 6-0 defeat at eventual champions Manchester City, which saw them slip to sixth in the table.\n\nChelsea then lost 2-0 at home to Manchester United in the FA Cup, when fans booed the Italian's substitutions and joined in when the visiting supporters sang \"You're getting sacked in the morning\".\n\nHowever, Sarri remained in charge, and of the 19 matches played after they were beaten on penalties in the League Cup final, his side lost just two, as they won their first European trophy since securing the Europa League in 2012-13.\n\nThey also held off the challenge of Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United to finish third in the league and clinch Champions League qualification.\n\nAnalysis - who could Chelsea turn to?\n\nFor all the difficulties Chelsea managers tend to encounter, there has been no shortage of potential candidates being linked to the job.\n\nThe most obvious is Blues' record scorer Frank Lampard.\n\nLampard ended his first season as a manager with defeat at Wembley in the Championship play-off. Lampard is steeped in Chelsea history, won 11 major trophies during his 13 years at the club, and is adored by supporters, even though he eventually moved away to join Manchester City before ending his career in Major League Soccer with New York City.\n\nAt Derby, Lampard also linked up with former team-mate Jody Morris, who developed an impressive reputation during five years working with Chelsea's youth teams - that might improve the pair's chances even more, given the transfer embargo Chelsea are facing.\n\nChelsea loanees Fikayo Tomori, Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham were all involved at Wembley and others, such as Reece James, have also impressed in season-long moves away from the club.\n\nMorris' inside knowledge would be a major asset in deciding which of these youngsters have the capability to step into the first-team picture.\n\nIt is also probable, although by no means certain, that Lampard would be given time if results did not go well.\n\nRafael Benitez, whose Newcastle future is uncertain, is also tipped, despite the fact Chelsea's fans have no love of the 59-year-old, something they made clear during his six months in temporary charge following the dismissal of Roberto di Matteo in 2012, when fans made banners demanding his exit even though he won the Europa League.\n\nWolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo is also of interest. Santo has taken Wolves from the Championship to seventh in the Premier League - and European qualification - in the space of two seasons. He is known to be hugely ambitious and for all the promise Wolves have shown during his time at Molineux, Chelsea still represents a significant step up.\n\nAnd, given Chelsea have already had six Italian managers and he has won five Serie A titles in a row, Massimiliano Allegri cannot be discounted, even if the 51-year-old has said he intends to take a year out of football.", "Jacob Cushley works in a Stonegate pub in Plymouth. He is one of 125,000 UK workers whose employer lets them access part of their salary as they earn it rather than waiting for payday.\n\n\"It's helped me out with being able to do things socially and also with some unexpected bills,\" he says.\n\n\"It's reassuring to know you can get your money when you need it.\"\n\nWagestream, the firm behind the Stonegate scheme, is in talks with NHS trusts, local authorities and the Army.\n\nIt says hundreds of thousands of public sector workers could be given early access to their earned income in the next 12 months.\n\nWorkers whose employers sign up to the scheme are given an app that shows them how much they have earned throughout the current pay cycle and how much they can withdraw early.\n\nTheir employer decides what limit to place on withdrawals, to ensure staff still have money coming into their accounts on payday.\n\nIt's a scheme designed to help workers avoid high cost credit like payday loans and overdrafts. For Jacob, it stopped an unexpected bill becoming a damaging debt.\n\nHalf way through the month his phone stopped working, meaning he could no longer use his digital bus ticket. \"I had to get a new bus ticket to get to work, which is about £78,\" he told BBC 5 Live's Wake Up To Money.\n\n\"That's quite a lot of money to come up with out of nowhere when you budget your wages throughout the month and you're getting to that halfway point where you've overspent on luxuries already.\n\n\"Wagestream helped me afford to get into work when I was stuck instead of taking out a payday loan or something, which is what I would have done.\"\n\nThe fintech firm, which launched last year, charges employers around £1 per employee per month for access to the scheme and then charges staff a fixed fee of £1.75 each time they make a withdrawal.\n\nIt covers the payment to the worker and then recovers the money directly from that worker's next pay cheque.\n\n\"We get a higher amount of withdrawals in the final 8-10 days of the month,\" says Peter Briffett, CEO of the start-up. \"That's when the payday loan companies start advertising too.\n\n\"When we roll out Wagestream to a new company, we will typically see 40% or 50% of the workforce adopt it in the first few weeks. That shows there's a need.\"\n\nGetting access to your salary early could create bad habits, warns Kara Gammell\n\nNot everyone thinks this is necessarily a good idea for struggling staff. Kara Gammell, the journalist behind the blog Your Best Friend's Guide to Cash, has concerns.\n\nShe says: \"Technically this isn't a loan; there's no credit and no interest but rather it's early access to your own money in return for a small fee, so it may seem affordable. But it could be a bad habit to get into as you'd always be playing catch up with your money\n\n\"As most of our household bills are paid monthly, consumers run the risk of finding themselves short come payday, and missed payments can jeopardise the security of your family and the roof over your head.\"Others agree. Wagestream is supported by a number of social enterprises and charities, including Fair By Design, an organisation working to end the poverty premium, and by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF).\n\nBut Helen Barnard, deputy director of policy & partnership at the JRF, believes the system is helpful for workers: \"What we've seen in the last few years is a rising tide of in-work poverty. More than 4 million workers are in poverty.\n\n\"A lot of those people don't have savings so if they have an unexpected bill in the middle of the month then they can get really stuck and get pulled into the spiral of high cost credit, they have to take out credit which then has charges which they have to pay back the next month.\n\n\"The idea of Wagestream is that it gives people access to their earnings once they have earned it rather than waiting until the end of the month, which helps them avoid that high cost credit trap.\"\n\nJacob Cushley also believes his employer has enough protections in place: \"I feel like for some people it might be tempting to just get your money early and spend it on socialising but there's a safety net.\n\n\"If you're weak and your friends are egging you on to come out and you do decide to dip then you're only allowed 30% of your earnings to date and you're only allowed to take out three transactions a month.\n\n\"It's a reassurance that you have money to get you through the month - and not just a small amount - and there's no charges on top or interest either.\"\n\nWith more public and private sector employers signing up, thousands more workers will soon find out if this helps them budget or encourages them to spend.\n\nYou can hear these interviews and more analysis by downloading BBC 5 Live's Wake Up To Money podcast", "Ivy Worsley is now a healthy nine-month old girl\n\nA woman who suffered 13 miscarriages gave birth to a girl after pioneering work by a fertility expert.\n\nEleven of Laura Worsley's pregnancies ended in the first trimester but she also lost two boys at 17 and 20 weeks.\n\nProfessor Siobhan Quenby discovered she had two conditions affecting her ability to have children.\n\nMrs Worsley and her husband Dave, from Kenilworth, got pregnant a 14th time and, with the help of Prof Quenby and her team, had a daughter named Ivy.\n\n\"Even now, nine months on, I can't believe she's actually mine,\" said Laura, 35.\n\nIt was in 2008 the couple suffered the heartbreak of their first miscarriage. They said when it happened a third time, they knew something was wrong.\n\nDoctors advised them to keep trying but, after their fourth pregnancy ended, they were referred to Prof Quenby at University Hospital of Coventry and Warwickshire's Biomedical Research Unit.\n\nThe birth of Ivy is a story that is being shared in medical circles all over the world\n\nIt was discovered Laura had Antiphospholipid syndrome, also known as \"sticky blood syndrome\", which can cause recurring pregnancy loss.\n\n\"We were told a high dose of folic acid might sort it, but it didn't,\" said Laura, whose continued pregnancies never progressed beyond a few weeks.\n\n\"We took part in trials, did all the tests and tried different medications, hoping something would work.\"\n\nTwo pregnancies did get beyond the 12-week stage but the couple lost their boys, Graceson and Leo, in 2015 and 2017.\n\n\"I don't know how I coped, to be honest,\" said Laura. \"Dave stayed strong for me but when we lost the boys, he really struggled with that.\n\n\"It was all I lived for - I lost years of my life. I just thought, if I can't have a baby I don't see a point in my life,\" she said.\n\nLeo's placenta was tested and results showed Laura also had Chronic Histiocytic Intervillositis (CHI), which causes the body to fight pregnancy.\n\n\"It was causing my placenta to die in places,\" said Laura.\n\n\"I wasn't sure I wanted to try again. But Professor Quenby said she had helped women with this successfully.\n\n\"I thought if there's that one bit of hope, I had to try again. I spoke to Dave about it and he felt the same.\n\n\"I told myself, this is the last time I'm doing this.\"\n\nAfter medication to improve the lining of Laura's womb, the couple conceived naturally for the 14th time.\n\nLaura and Dave kept the pregnancy a secret for fear of experiencing another loss\n\nProf Quenby said they used steroids to suppress Laura's immune system to allow the pregnancy to progress beyond 24 weeks, when babies have a chance of surviving. Drugs helped stop her blood clotting.\n\n\"The steroids do have side effects,\" said Prof Quenby. \"But we both decided it was worth one more go.\"\n\nAfter so many tragedies, Laura and Dave said they did not dare to dream this pregnancy would work.\n\n\"We didn't really tell anyone. It was the hardest thing to keep in but the hardest thing to share. I just kept thinking if we tell people, we're going to jinx it,\" said Laura.\n\nAnd then, at 30 weeks, Laura was in bed at home when her waters broke. Ivy was delivered by caesarean section while Laura was under a general anaesthetic. She weighed just 1.7 lbs, about the same as a Christmas pudding.\n\nIvy was a fighter right from the start, Laura said\n\n\"My husband saw her first. He showed me a photo of her when I woke up,\" said Laura, whose daughter had been taken straight to a neonatal incubator in intensive care.\n\nIt was three days before they could hold her. The new parents were warned Ivy might develop sepsis but she continued to thrive.\n\n\"I just thought, she's a fighter. She just kept going forward all the time, she never went back,\" said Laura.\n\nFor Prof Quenby, it was two months before she dared to visit Ivy on the ward.\n\n\"I was delighted she was here but I just couldn't bear to see her until I knew she was ok. I'd ask the nurses to go and see her for me but I was too scared.\"\n\nIvy was so small, her father's ring fitted on her wrist\n\nAfter 11 weeks in hospital, which included recovering from bronchiolitis, Ivy was able to go home.\n\nShe is now nine months old, and Laura's case is being highlighted globally as an example of how women with her conditions could still have successful pregnancies.\n\n\"I look at her and think 'miracles do happen', said Laura. \"I'd read about other people's miracles, and now I've got mine.\"\n\n\"Laura's case is benefitting people across the world,\" said Prof Quenby. \"Many in her situation would have given up, but she just kept going.\"\n\nProf Quenby eventually plucked up the courage to meet Ivy in hospital\n\nLaura and Dave held a baby shower for Ivy - after she was born - and raised more than £1,000, which they have donated to the hospital's charity.\n\n\"It's so important to be able to make a difference for anyone else going through what I went through,\" said Laura, who is continuing to raise money through a JustGiving page.\n\n\"Through my story I want to give others the hope and strength to carry on even when things seem impossible.\"\n\nThe couple have now had Ivy christened\n• None 'I lost my baby, then heard others crying'\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Mike and Tony adopted a boy who spent two years in care\n\nWhen Tony and Mike adopted a young boy, they were unsure what to do when he started screaming at night.\n\nBut after help from a psychologist and a mentor they were able to cope.\n\nNow, families across Wales will have access to similar support after ministers gave £2.3m to strengthen adoption support services.\n\nSuzanne Griffiths of the National Adoption Service said the money would boost support available to adoptive families.\n\nTony and Mike, who live in Cardiff, adopted their son six months ago after he spent two years in care.\n\n\"They [the adoption agency] put in place support, anything that comes up that we're not sure of, we can go to a psychologist,\" said Tony.\n\n\"He started having night terrors, screaming and crying, we were not sure what to do, so it's nice to have that reassurance that we're doing the best we can and give us advice.\n\n\"He's gone through more than anyone in a lifetime and he's still asking 'am I going to leave you', that's a big burden for a young child, so it's nice to have the support.\n\n\"When he has tantrums, we think 'are they typical tantrums, or is this something else?'

As a duty reporter I could be assigned anything, and on this particular day I was asked to look into a missing person's case.\n\nThat wasn't unusual, but as the story unfolded it became the most incredible I'd worked on.\n\nAlong with a cameraman, I headed to the coastal village of Inverkip where police were appealing for information about Margaret Fleming.\n\nShe was a young woman who hadn't been seen for 17 years by anyone other than her carers, Eddie Cairney and Avril Jones.\n\nMargaret Fleming was last seen when she was 19\n\nFrom December 1999 there had been no record of Margaret having seen a doctor, she had never used a bank account and there was no evidence she was on social media.\n\nIn my career as a reporter, I've done several missing persons cases - but none that sounded like this. How could someone be alive but live undetected for all that time?\n\nI followed the story in the months that passed and despite several appeals by Police Scotland there remained no sight nor sound of Margaret.\n\nThen in October 2017 - almost a year on from the reported disappearance - I was handed an opportunity to interview Cairney and Jones at Seacroft, the home they had shared with Margaret.\n\nIt is understood Margaret Fleming had lived in the Inverkip house since 1999\n\nThe day was as extraordinary as the case itself.\n\nThe house was in a stunning location, looking out to the Firth of Clyde. The property appeared derelict from the outside, but inside it was worse.\n\nFor me and cameraman Stan Leech, the first thing to hit us was the terrible smell.\n\nThe floorboards creaked, plaster was coming off the ceiling and in the back room there was a huge hole in the house with only tarpaulin between the garden and the interior. I can't imagine how cold winter must have been.\n\nThere was a tarpaulin over a hole in the back of the house\n\nJones was quiet and said she wasn't feeling well. Cairney was very talkative, bullish even. He appeared outraged that police seemed to be treating them as suspects.\n\nThe interview began with that standard question - how do you feel?\n\nAnd what came back was an unsurprising answer: \"We're upset at the way we've been treated, we feel like suspects, the last year has been hell.\"\n\nBut then the conversation took an incredible turn.\n\nMy next question, asking whether the pair had heard from Margaret, prompted the reply: \"Oh yes, she's alive and working as a gangmaster in Poland.\"\n\nDo you mean she's working under a gangmaster? I asked.\n\n\"No, no - she is the gangmaster,\" came the reply.\n\nNow, this was a woman whose learning difficulties were so complex she couldn't manage her financial affairs.\n\nSome of the things Cairney said about Margaret were unrepeatable, unkind and distasteful.\n\nBut the most telling moment was when I asked Jones what she would like to say to Margaret if she was watching now?\n\nThis is a question I ask in a lot of missing persons cases, as interviewees are nervous and getting them to describe a loved one is straightforward and puts them at ease.\n\nJones was silent - not a word passed her lips.\n\nEventually, the interview was over and we packed up our kit and left the house.\n\nAs we drove onto the A78 back to the office, I asked Stan what he thought. \"Well, that was strange,\" he replied.\n\nWe both agreed it was one of the most bizarre days we'd had at work.\n\nDid we believe them? Some of it yes - some of it no.\n\nCairney said he'd been a deep sea diver, and that seems undisputed.\n\nBut when he said he'd spoken to Margaret recently and I asked if he'd told the police, he insisted that they weren't interested.\n\nTo me, that just wasn't credible.\n\nThe interview was broadcast the following day and not long after that, Cairney and Jones were arrested.\n\nThe next time I saw them in the flesh they were in the dock at the High Court in Glasgow and I was in the witness box.\n\nI was called by the prosecution to give evidence during their trial and I looked on as my interview was played for the jury.\n\nIt was an uncomfortable experience for a reporter who is used to sitting in the press gallery.\n\nIt was hard to look at them, but I did steal a peek at one point. Cairney looked very frail and Jones looked far away, as if she was disconnected from events.\n\nNow they stand convicted of Margaret's murder. The jury clearly did not believe their version of events.\n\nThe police and prosecutors have done their job. Justice has been served for her family.\n\nBut one question remains - where is Margaret Fleming's body?", "\"Bad May\" written across one of the May 2020 pages to be replaced\n\nChanging the date of next year's early May bank holiday will cost one calendar maker about £200,000, it has said.\n\nLast week, the government announced the bank holiday, set for Monday 4 May, would be switched to Friday 8 May, to mark the 75th anniversary of VE Day.\n\nAllan & Bertram said as a result about 400,000 of its calendars which had already been printed would have to have the May 2020 pages replaced.\n\nThe government said it had considered the practical implications of its move.\n\nBut the manager of one calendar maker said it had \"probably been the single most stressful week that I have ever faced in business\".\n\n\"We're totally in agreement with changing the date. Just not changing it with 11 months notice, when you've had 74 years to prepare for this event,\" said Andrew Bennett, managing director of Hertfordshire-based Allan & Bertram.\n\nIt is only the second time the early May bank holiday has been moved - the first was in 1995 to mark the 50th anniversary of VE Day.\n\nOn that occasion people were given more notice, said Mr Bennett. \"They announced that in December 1993.

Cheryl Gillan announces the result with seven of the 10 candidates making it to round two\n\nBoris Johnson has secured the highest number of votes in the first MPs' ballot to select the Conservative Party leader and next prime minister.\n\nThree contenders - Mark Harper, Andrea Leadsom and Esther McVey - were knocked out in the secret ballot of Tory MPs.\n\nMr Johnson received 114 votes, significantly more than his nearest rival Jeremy Hunt, who came second with 43. Michael Gove was third with 37.\n\nSeven candidates progress to the next round of voting next week.\n\nThe two who prove most popular after the last MPs' ballot will go to Conservative Party members in a final vote later this month.\n\nThe winner of the contest to succeed Theresa May is expected to be announced in the week of 22 July.\n\nSources close to Health Secretary Matt Hancock told the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg he was \"mulling over\" whether to withdraw from the contest after coming sixth with 20 votes.\n\nHome Secretary Sajid Javid, who came fifth with 23 votes, is understood to be staying in the race for now. Some have suggested his candidacy - with support from Mr Hancock - could take on Mr Hunt to become second in the ballot.\n\nMr Johnson, a former foreign secretary who served for eight years as London mayor, said he was \"delighted\" to win but warned that his campaign still had \"a long way to go\".\n\nForeign Secretary Mr Hunt said: \"Boris did well today but what the result shows is, when it comes to the members' stage, I'm the man to take him on.\"\n\nEnvironment Secretary Mr Gove said it was \"all to play for\" and he was \"very much looking forward\" to candidates' TV debates on Channel 4 on Sunday and on BBC One next Tuesday.\n\nAll 313 Conservative MPs voted in the first ballot, including Mrs May, who refused to say whom she had backed.\n\nThe fourth-placed candidate, former Brexit secretary Dominic Raab, said he was \"proud and honoured\" and he had a \"good base to build on\".\n\nMr Javid said: \"I look forward to continuing to share my positive vision and my plan for uniting the country.\"\n\nMr Hancock thanked his supporters, saying it was \"terrific to have more votes from colleagues than I could have hoped for\".\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

In fact, I may have been doing icing sugar.\"\n\nHowever, the emergence of Mr Gove's 1999 article has led to criticism in the Mail on Sunday and the Observer who quote criticism from drug charities and former police officers.\n\nIt comes as Mr Johnson, in his first major interview of the campaign, compared the Labour and Brexit Party leaders to sea monsters from Greek mythology.\n\n\"I truly believe only I can steer the country between the Scylla and Charybdis of Corbyn and Farage and on to calmer water,\" he told the Sunday Times.\n\n\"This can only be achieved by delivering Brexit as promised on 31 October and delivering a One Nation Tory agenda,\" he added.\n\nMr Johnson said as prime minister, he would refuse to pay the EU a £39bn settlement until there was \"greater clarity\" about a future relationship.\n\nHe also said he would scrap the Irish backstop and would only settle the border issue when Brussels was ready to agree to a deal.\n\nMeanwhile, Mr Javid said he would pay for a \"multi-billion pound\" spending increase in education by slowing down government debt repayment.\n\nHe said that could free between £15 billion and £25 billion a year, some of which would go to the education system.\n\n\"I want to see a multi-year, multi-billion pound boost in investment and spending in schools, and really change the life chances of so many young people,\" he told Sky News.\n\nOn Friday, Theresa May officially stepped down as the leader of the Conservative Party. She will remain as prime minister until her successor is chosen.\n\nLeadership nominations will close at 17:00 BST on Monday, the party has said. Candidates need eight MPs to back them.\n\nMPs will then vote for their preferred candidates in a series of secret ballots held on 13, 18, 19 and 20 June.\n\nThe final two will be put to a vote of members of the wider Conservative Party from 22 June, with the winner expected to be announced about four weeks later.\n\nOn Tuesday 18 June BBC One will be hosting a live election debate between the Conservative MPs who are still in the race.\n\nIf you would like to ask the candidates a question live on air, use the form below.

British goods exports to Seoul climbed sharply after the EU's deal with South Korea was implemented in 2011.

Dr Ken Amor: \"This part of Scotland has undergone a complex geological history\"\n\nScientists think the time has come for a full geophysical survey of The Minch, to see if the Scottish strait is hiding an ancient meteorite crater.\n\nThe idea that such a structure lies between the Western Isles and mainland Scotland was first raised back in 2008.\n\nThey found evidence on the Highlands coast for the rocky debris that would have been produced by a giant impact.\n\nNow, the team from Oxford and Exeter universities believes it can pinpoint where the space object fell to Earth.\n\nWriting in the Journal of the Geological Society, Dr Ken Amor and colleagues say this location is centred about 15-20km west-northwest of Enard Bay - part way across The Minch towards Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides.\n\nThe feature would be buried deep under the seafloor, they add.\n\nIt's an intriguing prospect. The evidence gathered so far suggests the event occurred about 1.2 billion years ago when the continents were arranged very differently from how they are now, and life on our planet would have existed almost exclusively in the oceans.\n\nThe way the rocks are laid out allows the team to trace back to an origin\n\nThe key supporting evidence is a group of reddish-coloured rocks on the eastern side of The Minch known as the Stac Fada deposit.\n\nThese are determined to be ejecta from the impact - the material hurled outwards when a 1-2km-wide object slammed into what was probably then some kind of rift valley.\n\nThe rocks are fragmented and contain melt particles, and also what geologists term shocked quartz - a type of mineral that has at some point been subjected to enormous pressures.\n\nShocked quartz is very often associated with meteorite events.\n\nThe latest examinations of the Stac Fada deposit have now given the researchers - from Oxford and the Camborne School of Mines - some directional information that allows them to be more precise about where the ejecta came from.\n\n\"If you imagine debris flowing out in a big cloud across the landscape, hugging the ground, eventually that material slows down and comes to rest. But it's the stuff out in front that stops first while the stuff behind is still pushing forward and it overlaps what's in front,\" explained Dr Amor.\n\n\"That's what we see and it gives us a strong directional indicator that we can trace backwards.\n\n\"Also, we've examined the orientation of magnetic particles within the fabric of the rock at several locations, and this too allows us to triangulate back to an origin,\" the Oxford researcher told BBC News.\n\nThe lines converge out in The Minch.\n\nArtwork: If confirmed it would be the biggest impact recorded on what is now the British Isles\n\nThe team is examining some seismic surveys that were done in the 1970s as part of an oil prospecting programme, but they are of poor quality.\n\nLikewise, they are investigating gravity data. This indicates something anomalous in the strait, but again it is all somewhat uncertain.\n\n\"What we really need is a new high-resolution geophysical survey - a 3D seismic survey,\" said Dr Amor.\n\n\"Unfortunately, being offshore that would cost a lot of money. I shall be putting in a grant proposal to do some seismic work. That would be a first step and would greatly assist the definition of any impact structure.\"", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nThink of football and quite often Brazil will come to mind as an example of success.\n\nBut not for the followers of the women's game.\n\nWhile in the men's version the South American country has an enviable collection of five Fifa World Cup titles and a legion of legendary players, it is the United States who are the powerhouse in the female landscape.\n\nOut of seven World Cups, the Americans have won three and finished as runner-ups once. They have also won four Olympic gold medals in six attempts.\n\nBut Brazil's best result in the tournament is a solitary second place in 2007, though they do also have two Olympic silver medals.\n\nIn fact, the only country with success on both fronts is Germany, with four men's and two women's titles.\n\nBut what explains the reversal of scenarios in the US and Brazil?\n\nThe US men's team's best result in a World Cup was third in 1930, but since then they have only reached the last eight once, in 2002, where they reached the quarter-finals - losing to eventual runners-up Germany. This was just one of the unusual results registered in a tournament where Turkey finished third and co-hosts South Korea fourth.\n\nBut the women's game had a much different trajectory thanks to Title IX - a federal law that in 1972 established gender equality in the distribution of funding in high school and university sports, and which still forms the basis of professional sports in the US.\n\nBy the time the first Women's World Cup took place in 1991, the US had a larger talent pool than anyone else. It took advantage of the fact that in many other countries women's football remained for years underfunded and with low participation rates.\n\nHowever, it was the 1999 world title that raised the game's profile. In that year, the US hosted and won the 1999 World Cup - the shirtless celebration of defender Brandi Chastain after scoring the winning penalty in the final against China is often referenced as one of the most iconic sporting moments by American media.\n\nMia Hamm - who topped the all-time international scoring list in 1999, a month prior to the World Cup - even became a punchline in the sitcom Friends.\n\nThat game in Los Angeles attracted a crowd of more than 90,000 people, the biggest ever for a women's match.\n\nThe story of women's football in Brazil is marred by sexism. The game was actually outlawed in 1941 by then dictator Getulio Vargas - and the prohibition was only lifted in 1979.\n\nWithout a proper grassroots system and a strong league, the women's team has actually punched above its weight by reaching the 2007 final and the semi-finals in 1999.\n\nAnd Brazil have also produced the woman voted the best player of all-time: Marta.\n\nWorld governing body Fifa's latest census of the woman's game, in 2014, established that there were more 30 million female players worldwide.\n\nAbout half of them were based in the US and Canada.\n\nIn the whole of South America, Fifa counted a little over 255,000 players.\n\nThe US numbers are also impressive at grassroots level: national governing body US Soccer says that women amount to 47% of all players at high-school level, and 53% at university competitions.\n\n\"Many other countries in Europe are still lagging in the women's movement, and even in Brazil, where soccer is a cultural phenomenon, women have struggled to gain recognition and access to basic resources,\" economist and author Stefan Szymanski told American radio PBS earlier this year.\n\nThe 23-women squad sent by the US to the 2019 Women's World Cup in France is formed from players taking part in the National Women's Soccer League, one of the strongest and most-watched competitions in the world of women's football.\n\nPlayers have a minimum annual wage of $16,500 and a maximum of $46,200.\n\nAs for Brazil, 16 players are based abroad, plying their trade in places as diverse as South Korea and Denmark, as the domestic league struggles to attract the interest of public, sponsors and media.\n\nThe seven games of the opening round of the 2019 Campeonato Brasileiro had less than 10,000 people in attendance, despite many clubs giving tickets away for free.\n\nWages are hardly enticing: a survey by news portal UOL in 2017 showed that three out of four players earned less than $6,000 a year.\n\nIn sporting tournaments like the World Cup, experience is an asset. A point proven by a quick look at the number of matches played by the American stars.\n\nOn average, each of the 23 American players in France has played for her country 75 times. For Brazil, the average is 40.\n\n\"When we go to a competition like the World Cup we face teams that train together and play together more than us. We lack both in the physical and psychological departments,\" says former Brazil captain Juliana Cabral.\n\nBrazil kicked off their 2019 World Cup with a comfortable 3-0 win over Jamaica - striker Cristiane scoring a hat-trick in the victory.\n\nThe US begin their tournament on Tuesday against Thailand in Reims, while Brazil are next in action against Australia on Thursday in Montpellier.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. People flee after believing gunshots had been fired\n\nA man is due to appear in court after allegedly causing a stampede at a gay pride parade in the US which left seven people needing hospital treatment.\n\nThe man, named in US media as 38-year-old Aftabjit Singh, allegedly waved a BB gun, which fires small metal ball projectiles, in the capital Washington on Saturday.\n\nA number of people reported hearing gunshots before the crowd fled.\n\nHowever, officials maintain there is no evidence that shots were fired.\n\nA police report - cited by the Associated Press news agency - said the man took the weapon out after noticing someone \"hitting his significant other\".\n\nHe has been charged with illegal possession of a BB gun, carrying a dangerous weapon and disorderly conduct. He is due in court on Monday.\n\nElizabeth Hernandez, 19, told AP that she heard a \"pop, pop\" during the parade. She said she ran, was pushed into a restaurant and hid in the bathroom.\n\nSome eyewitnesses said the sound might have been that of metal barriers being knocked over.\n\nImages have circulated on social media, showing crowds running around the city's Dupont Circle neighbourhood.\n\nThe seven people taken to hospital had non-life-threatening injuries which they suffered during the panic, police said.\n\nIn a statement on Twitter, parade organisers Capital Pride said all of their events would continue \"with safety precautions in place\".\n\nGay pride is celebrated around the world in June, with some parades organised on or around 28 June, the anniversary of a police raid on the Stonewall Inn gay bar in New York City.\n\nDuring the raid, in 1969, the bar's patrons fought back and inspired the modern LGBT rights movement.", "A \"dramatic\" fall in car production and an easing of stockpiling by manufacturers meant the economy shrank in April, official figures show.\n\nThe economy contracted 0.4% from the month before, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).\n\nThe contraction meant growth for the three months to April slowed to 0.3%.\n\nFactory shutdowns designed to cope with disruption from a March Brexit slashed UK car production in April by nearly half, the industry said last month.\n\nBMW's Mini factory in Oxford brought forward its summer maintenance shutdown to April to minimise any disruption surrounding Brexit. Other manufacturers' annual stoppages were also brought forward.\n\nThe economy had seen a spurt of growth in the run-up to the proposed March date for the UK leaving the European Union, as manufacturers stockpiled parts, raw materials and goods in the anticipation of holdups at the border.\n\nAfter the Brexit deadline was extended to October, it suffered the reverse effects as these supply reserves were used up and fewer purchases were made.\n\n\"The hangover that's followed the UK's original exit date is proving stronger than anticipated, said Yael Selfin, chief economist at accountants KPMG UK.\n\n\"Today's figures signal the UK economy is likely to experience more subdued growth for the rest of the year, marred by Brexit uncertainty.\"\n\nONS statistician Rob Kent-Smith said: \"Growth showed some weakening across the latest three months, with the economy shrinking in the month of April mainly due to a dramatic fall in car production, with uncertainty ahead of the UK's original EU departure date leading to planned shutdowns.\n\n\"There was also widespread weakness across manufacturing in April, as the boost from the early completion of orders ahead of the UK's original EU departure date has faded.\"\n\nIf you are going to cancel a party it is always polite to give your guests as much notice as possible. After all, that could well save them the expense of buying a present, booking a baby sitter, splashing out on new clothes etc.\n\nUnfortunately Theresa May gave British industry only a few days' notice that Brexit was being postponed and it was just too late to stop carefully-honed plans swinging into operation.\n\nMany businesses feared Brexit would cause at least temporary disruption, so they had been stockpiling components and finished goods to tide them over, and they have been using those stores up rather than producing more.\n\nThe car industry brought forward its annual shutdown - usually used to put in new equipment, prepare for new models and so on. As a result, car production fell off a cliff and manufacturing as a whole fell by nearly 4% in just one month.\n\nGrowth may bounce back, but then Brexit is now scheduled for 31 October. How do companies plan for that? Repeat the whole operation again or not bother? Certainly the car industry won't want another shutdown, it has already had one this year and Brexit could still be delayed again.\n\nThe contraction in April was far sharper than economists had expected.\n\nRuth Gregory, senior UK economist at Capital Economics, said the figures suggest \"underlying growth is pretty sluggish\".\n\n\"With the Brexit paralysis and a slowing global economy taking its toll, we doubt GDP will grow by much more than 1.5% or so in 2019 as a whole and expect interest rates to remain on hold until the middle of next year.\"\n\nThe Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) has estimated car production for the whole of 2019 will be about 10% down on last year. It says the market might pick up by the end of the year if there is a favourable deal between the UK and the EU, and a substantial transition period to adapt to trading outside the single market.\n\nBut it has said a no-deal Brexit will make the declines worse, with the threat of border delays, production stoppages and additional costs.\n\nThe Prime Minister's official spokesman said: \"While monthly figures are always changeable, the fundamentals of our economy are strong and it has grown every year since 2010. Employment levels are at a record high and wages growing in real terms.\"", "The exterior of the BBC's New Broadcasting House building\n\nA report looking at free TV licences for the over-75s suggests older households have seen \"a marked improvement\" in their living standards since the policy was introduced.\n\nThe BBC-commissioned report said pensioners are now less likely than any other age group to live in poverty.\n\nThe government began funding free TV licences for the over-75s in 2000.\n\nIn 2015 it was decided the concession would be paid for in future by the BBC.\n\nAccording to the report by Frontier Economics, which was commissioned to carry out the research, almost half (46%) of households with someone aged 75 or more were among the poorest in terms of incomes in 2000.\n\nBy 2017, that proportion had fallen to fewer than one in three (32%).\n\nThe paper says this has come about \"because incomes of over-75 households have grown much more rapidly than average\".\n\nIt goes on: \"Incomes, wealth and life expectancy of older people have improved significantly, pensioner poverty rates have fallen, and older households report higher well-being on a range of metrics.\"\n\nThe government's contribution to the free TV licence is being phased out by 2020. Parliament has given the corporation the duty to consult on what the policy should be for the older population thereafter.\n\nFree TV licences were brought in when Gordon Brown was chancellor\n\nIn 2001, free licence fees for the over-75s cost the government £365m. The report forecasts that by 2021 the current arrangements will cost the BBC £745m a year - constituting a fifth of the licence fee income.\n\nA full report from Frontier Economics on longer-term funding options relating to the over-75s concession will be published in the next few weeks.\n\nThe BBC will then produce its own public consultation paper exploring various options.\n\nReforms to the policy may include raising the age of eligibility, introducing means-testing or removing the benefit from older people who live with younger relatives.\n\nWriting in The Times, former cabinet secretary and chairman of Frontier Economics Lord O'Donnell said it was \"a complex issue\".\n\n\"Different approaches need to be considered in economic, financial, distributional and feasibility terms,\" he went on.\n\n\"Any final decision will ultimately be one for the BBC based on a wider consultation process.\"\n\nAs Gus O'Donnell, Lord O'Donnell was cabinet secretary from 2005 to 2011\n\n\"This is an important discussion paper which we are studying carefully,\" said a BBC spokesperson. \"The full report - which looks at a range of approaches the BBC could take - will be published shortly.\n\n\"As we have said, the government concession ends in June 2020. We are going to be consulting on what then happens. It might be a concession on the same terms, it might be different concession.\n\n\"There are important issues to consider. We will do nothing without consulting with the public. Everyone who wants to contribute will be able to do so.\"\n\nCaroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK, said there were \"compelling arguments in favour of the over 75s TV licence concession\".\n\n\"Despite some creditable improvement over the last decade, significant numbers of older people are still poor and progress in reducing pensioner poverty has stalled.\n\n\"The question for the BBC is therefore how they intend to fulfil the responsibility they have taken on as regards the TV licence concession for the over 75s... the majority of whom live on only modest incomes.\"\n\nFollow us on Facebook, on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts, or on Instagram at bbcnewsents.

So, what are the details and do their sums add up?\n\nPeople would only start to pay the higher rate of income tax when they earn at least £80,000, under Boris Johnson's plans\n\nThe plan: Raise the higher income tax rate from £50,000 to £80,000.\n\nWhat it means: At the moment, individuals have to pay 40% income tax on any earnings above £50,000. So, a person earning £55,000 a year, pays 40% on £5,000.\n\nUnder Mr Johnson's plan, the point at which the 40% higher rate kicks in would be raised to £80,000. This would not affect Scottish workers because the Scottish government sets its own income tax rates and bands.\n\nMr Johnson also wants to raise the point at which people start paying National Insurance, absorbing some of the cost by also raising the ceiling for NI.\n\nNational Insurance is a separate tax. It's paid for by workers and companies and it is meant to fund state benefits, such as the NHS.\n\nUnder this new tax regime, someone earning £60,000 a year could benefit by £1,000 a year, while someone on £80,000 or more would gain a maximum of £3,000 (because some of the benefits would be lost due to national insurance increases).\n\nBut it's wealthy pensioners who stand to benefit the most - up to £6,000 each, according to analysis from the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS). That's because pensioners don't pay national insurance to begin with.\n\nSo if someone already receives a generous work pension, not only will they be subject to less income tax (up to the new threshold), they also won't be affected by the national insurance rise.\n\nThe cost: Changing the tax system in this way would cost around £10bn a year, according to Mr Johnson. He says the bill could be funded from the £26.6bn of \"fiscal headroom\".\n\nThis \"headroom\" refers to government borrowing, which came in lower than originally expected and had been ear-marked by the chancellor for no-deal Brexit planning.\n\nHowever, if Mr Johnson chooses to fund his tax changes with this £26.6bn, it would not amount to a permanent solution. That's because the money can only be spent once.\n\nSo, to pay for the policy in the long term, Mr Johnson will need to raise taxes elsewhere, announce spending cuts or continue to fund it from government borrowing.\n\nWhat it means: A leading supporter of Mr Johnson, Health Secretary Matt Hancock, told the Times that the days of public sector pay freezes under Theresa May and David Cameron would be over if Mr Johnson was elected.\n\nPublic sector pay was frozen for two years in 2010, except for those earning less than £21,000 a year, and rises were capped at 1% in 2013. The government announced an end to the pay cap in 2017, and some public sector workers have negotiated increases above 1% since then.\n\nThe candidate himself has declined to specify by how much he would increase pay, saying only that remuneration should be \"decent\".\n\nHe has also pledged to fund increased investment in special needs education, as part of a £4.6bn boost to overall school funding.\n\nThe cost: We don't know by how much Mr Johnson wants to increase public sector pay, but the IFS says that each 1% increase in pay for the public sector workforce costs the government about £1.8bn a year.\n\nThe plan: Hire an extra 20,000 police officers by 2022\n\nWhat it means: There are 122,000 police officers in England and Wales, down from 143,000 in 2010 when Theresa May became home secretary.\n\nMr Johnson plans to reverse almost all of those cuts on the basis that \"more people on our streets means more people are kept safe\".\n\nThere has been some dispute about the link between police numbers and levels of violent crime, with Theresa May saying there was not a direct link.\n\nBut Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick has said there is \"some link\" between the two.\n\nFor police officers outside London, the lowest pay was around £25,400 in 2016 (although this differs from force to force).\n\nThat comes to £500m a year, but these costs will increase once they complete training, which takes around two years.\n\nTypically, after four years, the pay would increase to £33,700 (again outside London) - so almost £700m, but this doesn't account for training costs.\n\nThe Nottinghamshire police force estimated recruitment and training to be around £13,000 per officer in 2012 (not including salary received during training).\n\nThis would come in at about £258m for 20,000 new officers, but again, this will differ from force to force.\n\nKit Malthouse, who supports Mr Johnson, says that they would recruit special constables, who are trained as police officers but work part time, to help alleviate training costs.\n\nWhat it means: From April 2020, instead of paying 17% tax on their profits, companies would pay 12.5%.\n\nThe foreign secretary is in favour of cutting the rate of corporation tax - the tax that companies pay on their profits - to 12.5%, which is the same rate as in the Republic of Ireland.\n\nThe government is already planning a series of cuts to corporation tax, which was cut from 20% to 19% on 1 April 2017, and is scheduled to fall to 17% next year.\n\nThe idea of cutting it by another 4.5 percentage points came in a report by another Conservative MP at the end of May.\n\nThe cost: The government estimates the policy would cost about £14bn a year. That cost would be reduced if future tax takes were to be boosted by companies being attracted to move to the UK to take advantage of the lower tax rate, or if companies use the money saved to pay higher wages or invest it in improving their productivity.\n\nHow much that would reduce the cost is very hard to predict.\n\nThe plan: Take 90% of businesses out of business rates\n\nWhat it means: Business rates are a local tax paid on the use of buildings for non-domestic purposes.\n\nThe cost: We haven't seen any formal costings of this policy, but in the 2018 Budget, Philip Hammond decided to give a one-third discount on business rates to high street retail businesses with a rateable value below £51,000 in 2019-20 and 2020-21. The Treasury said that would benefit 90% of high street retail businesses.\n\nThe Office for Budget Responsibility said the discount would cost £490m this year and £450m next year.\n\nIt means we can estimate that a 100% cut for those businesses would cost an extra £900m next year and about £1.35bn a year after that.\n\nBusiness rates are currently collected by local authorities, which retain half of the money. Central government is reimbursing them for the one-third cut and would presumably also reimburse them for the 100% cut.\n\nWhat it means: If you are running a business and you buy equipment such as computers or machinery, you can deduct the amount you spend on it from your profits to reduce the amount of tax you have to pay.\n\nThere is a limit to the amount you can deduct, which is called the annual investment allowance. At the start of this year it was raised from £200,000 to £1m for two years.\n\nThe cost: We do not have a costing for this measure either, but to get an idea of the amounts of money involved, the OBR said the temporary increase to £1m would cost £600m this year.\n\nThe plan: Money for fishing, farming and defence\n\nWhat it means: Jeremy Hunt would increase spending on defence from its current level of 2% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP - the sum of everything the UK produces each year) to 2.5% of GDP by 2023-4.\n\nHe has also said he would have a \"relief programme\" for the fishing and farming sectors to help them deal with the effects of a possible no-deal Brexit.\n\nThe cost: The boost to defence spending would cost £15bn a year by 2023-4. The relief for fishing and farming would cost £6bn. Mr Hunt says his overall plans would \"kick-start the economy and create extra growth\", which would mean the government had extra money to spend.\n\nBut the disruption involved in leaving the EU with no deal is widely expected to reduce growth - at least initially - which would mean that increased taxes or borrowing or reduced spending in other areas would be required to fund the extra spending.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

He raped me and he verbally acknowledged what he had done the next day.\"\n\nBecause she had been so deeply asleep it took her several days for what had happened to sink in.\n\n\"I was questioning whether it happened or not myself,\" she said. \"It took several days for the shock to wear off.\n\n\"Then I started getting panic attacks a couple of nights after the rape happened.\"\n\nShe believes it is because of this time, where for a few days she remained in a sexual relationship with the man, that the CPS decided to drop her case - despite the fact she later received Facebook messages from him admitting to and apologising for his actions that night.\n\nOne Facebook message which he sent her said: \"Bonny, I am so sorry, really, I made a huge mistake. I was very stupid. Is there is anything I could do to make you feel better.\"\n\nShe replied: \"I was still fast asleep when you forced yourself inside me. I was frozen with fear and so deeply [sleeping] that I thought I was dreaming.\"\n\nHe said: \"I know, I completely read wrong.\"\n\nDespite this evidence the CPS decided to drop the case in January 2018.\n\nBonny said: \"I don't really know why.

Harriet Wistrich from the End Violence Against Women Coalition on BBC Breakfast\n\nThe UK-wide End Violence Against Women Coalition (EVAW), represented by the Centre for Women's Justice, said it had a dossier of more than 20 recent cases that were dropped by prosecutors for reasons they felt were spurious or unjustified.\n\nThey include one victim who was raped at knifepoint and held prisoner for two days by her boyfriend - a man who was known by police to be violent, campaigners said.\n\nThe group said the prosecutor dropped the case, saying WhatsApp messages she had sent to placate her attacker could be misinterpreted by the jury.\n\nAnother woman, known as Beth, was sexually abused and raped as a child.\n\nShe alleges that despite a two-year investigation which saw police interview more than 50 witnesses and collate 44 charges against the man, the case was dropped.\n\nSpeaking to the Victoria Derbyshire show this morning, she said: \"I was absolutely devastated.\n\n\"This person has a gun, he moved at one point to follow where I was, he constantly hounds me with threats.\n\n\"To have built the courage to finally go forward after other sexual offences and a rape had happened, and then for the case to be dropped like that, it made me think well if you're a kid growing up with abuse then you really have nowhere to turn to.\"\n\nOver the past four years the number of rapes reported to police in England and Wales has gone up by 173%, figures show.\n\nBut, at the same time, there has been a 44% fall in cases actually getting to court, with only 4% of rape complaints resulting in a prosecution.\n\nCrown Prosecution Service data shows only 2,800 suspects investigated for rape in 2017/18 were charged - a 23.1% decline compared with 2016/17.\n\nA record number of cases - more than 1,300 - were \"administratively finalised\", meaning police stopped their inquiries after advice from prosecutors or after a suspect went missing.\n\nRape case referrals from the police to the CPS also dropped by 9.1%.\n\nEVAW said the lack of cases going to court reflected a change in approach from the CPS and was discriminatory against women and girls, representing a major failure in protecting their human rights.\n\nCoalition co-director Sarah Green said: \"We have strong evidence to show that CPS leaders have quietly changed their approach to decision-making in rape cases, switching from building cases based on their 'merits' back to second-guessing jury prejudices.\n\n\"This is extremely serious and is having a detrimental impact on women's access to justice.\"\n\nThe coalition is due to submit a \"letter before action\" to the CPS on Monday, urging it to review and change the way it handles serious sexual offence cases.\n\nOnce CPS lawyers receive the letter, they will then be given time to respond to the allegations or bid for an extension to the deadline.\n\nIf the CPS does not agree to change its policy, the matter could end up being decided by a judicial review in the courts.\n\nThe CPS said there had been no change in approach.\n\nA spokesman said: \"Victims have the right to ask for a review of their case by another prosecutor, independent of the original decision-maker, and this is another way we can make sure we are fair and transparent in what we do.\"\n\n2 July 2019: The first paragraph of this article has been changed to make it clear that it concerns an allegation that has not been proven in court.", "An \"unprecedented\" number of calls from the public during the London Bridge killings left police thinking they may be facing a \"Mumbai-style\" attack.\n\nThe inquest into the attack heard there were more than 500 unverified reports, including claims of sustained gunfire and hostage-taking.\n\nOfficers feared co-ordinated shootings and bombings, as in the 2008 killings in India.\n\nEight people were killed with a van and knives in the 2017 London attack.\n\nIn the space of three minutes the attackers struck Xavier Thomas, 45, and Christine Archibald, 30, with a van on the bridge, before fatally stabbing Alexandre Pigeard, 26, Sara Zelenak, 21, Kirsty Boden, 28, Sebastien Belanger, 36, James McMullan, 32, and Ignacio Echeverria, 39, around Borough Market.\n\nAnother 48 people were injured in the killings on 3 June 2017.\n\nTen minutes after Khuram Butt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22, had begun their assault, they were shot dead by firearms officers.\n\nSupt Ross McKibbin, who led the first few hours of the police investigation, told the inquest at the Old Bailey officers initially believed there was \"a potential\" that more than three suspects might have been involved.\n\nAs the \"chaotic\" information came in, they also feared that there could have been suicide bombs in use, he said.\n\n\"We have got members of the public calling us about things they can hear rather than see, so they think they are under sustained gunfire,\" said the officer, who is part of the Specialist Firearms Command.\n\nThe victims of the London Bridge attack (clockwise from top left): Christine Archibald, Sebastien Belanger, Kirsty Boden, Ignacio Echeverria, Sara Zelenak, Xavier Thomas, Alexandre Pigeard, James McMullan\n\nAmong the calls on the night of the attacks were reports of a shooting in the Elephant and Castle area, the inquest heard.\n\nSupt McKibbin said these reports were false but \"these are not people who were trying to divert resources, these are people who felt they were genuinely under attack\".\n\nThe November 2008 attacks in Mumbai involved a series of co-ordinated shootings and bombings at luxury hotels and the city's largest train station, killing 166 people.\n\nAsked if police feared a similar incident might be unfolding on the night of the London Bridge attacks, Supt McKibben said: \"Absolutely.\"\n\nLeading the initial police response to the attack, Supt Ross McKibbin had seen the \"carnage\" unfolding on London Bridge via CCTV footage from the roof of St Thomas' Hospital.\n\nIn court, he said the Met Police and City of London forces were overwhelmed by the amount of information that came in on that night.\n\nHe repeatedly described what he and his force witnessed as \"chaos\", saying that it was \"effectively a war zone on the streets of London\".\n\nPolice, he said, received more than 500 pieces of unverified information over the phone - an unprecedented number of calls about a single incident.\n\nHe emphasised the fact that this was an \"extremely complex policing operation\" when pressed by lawyer Gareth Patterson on why ambulances did not locate victims faster.\n\n\"It was without a doubt the single most challenging shift I have experienced in 24 years of operational policing,\" said Supt McKibbin.\n\nSupt McKibbin also offered \"sincere condolences\" to the parents and fiancee of Xavier Thomas for not being able to save his life.\n\nPolice treating casualties of the attacks did not have the technology to see the locations of ambulances and were unaware they were waiting in a safe place nearby, he said.\n\nSome victims waited 25 minutes to be treated by paramedics.\n\nHe told the inquest there was \"absolutely\" a case for giving police equipment that would allow them to see the location of ambulance personnel or vehicles.", "US lawyers representing Grenfell survivors and victims' relatives are expected to file a lawsuit\n\nMore than 100 Grenfell survivors and relatives are taking legal action in the US against three firms they blame for the fire, the BBC has been told.\n\nThe lawsuit will target the cladding maker Arconic, insulation maker Celotex and fridge supplier Whirlpool.\n\nA successful action in the US could cost the firms involved tens of millions of dollars in damages.\n\nWhirlpool and Arconic said they would not comment on the case while official investigations into the fire continued.\n\nCelotex told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme it was \"considering its position\" in relation to the legal action.\n\nThe Grenfell fire in June 2017 claimed the lives of 72 people and another 70 were injured.\n\nThe first phase of the public inquiry into the disaster heard expert evidence that a small kitchen fire broke out through a uPVC window fitting and ignited material attached to the building.\n\nThe new exterior cladding and insulation was installed in 2016 as part of a £10m refit of the tower.\n\nUS lawyers representing Grenfell survivors and victims' relatives are expected to file the lawsuit this week in Philadelphia under product liability law, which is meant to hold firms responsible for injuries caused by the goods they sell.\n\nThe state of Pennsylvania was reportedly chosen as the legal jurisdiction for the suit because both Arconic, which supplied the combustible ACM panels, and Celotex, which manufactured the insulation, have their US headquarters there.\n\nThe Victoria Derbyshire programme has been told a number of Grenfell residents have refused to sign up to the action, saying they believe it could become a \"distraction\" from the ongoing public inquiry and criminal investigation.\n\nA Grenfell Tower survivor and community leader said: \"We respect those that wish to take action in the US, and we respect those that don't wish to.\"\n\nA claim is also being brought against another US corporation, Whirlpool, which made the fridge-freezer in flat 16, which the public inquiry was told was the likely cause of the fire.\n\nHowever, other experts have said there is insufficient evidence to say definitively it was to blame.\n\nA civil case for damages has to be started within two years of the fire itself because of the statute of limitations in the US.\n\nAt least two large US law firms are involved in the action.\n\nLawyers believe the disaster could not have taken place in the US because of tighter fire safety rules and a ban on the use of similar cladding on high-rise residential buildings.\n\nCondolence messages written on a wall outside Latymer Community Church in west London\n\nUnlike in the UK, any case would be heard by a jury and could lead to much larger financial awards for both compensation and punitive damages.\n\nThe BBC understands lawyers believe it is impossible to estimate the size of any future award but have indicated that, in 2013, a similar lawsuit related to a building collapse that killed seven people, settled for $227m (£178m).\n\nBefore any case can reach trial, it is believed to be extremely likely all three companies named in the suit will argue it should not be heard in the US because the fire happened in the UK.\n\nMore than 100 survivors or relatives have signed up to the US legal action. But not every Grenfell family has decided to join, with some survivors thought to be uneasy about pursuing a damages claim outside the UK.\n\nOne resident told the Victoria Derbyshire programme he did not feel it was \"morally right\" to take action in the US; another described it as \"ugly\" and a \"distraction\" from pursuing Kensington and Chelsea Borough Council and the Tenant Management Organisation, responsible for the tower.\n\nThe cladding system installed in the tower in 2016 was made up of multiple elements. The thin, outer aluminium panel was made by US metals giant Arconic.\n\nA spokesman said the company had no comment on any potential litigation.\n\n\"We continue to support the public inquiry and the investigations by the authorities,\" he said.\n\nEarlier this year, the $15bn (£12bn) sale of Arconic to a US private equity firm broke down. A key issue was said to be the size of any possible financial liabilities linked to the disaster.\n\nIn May 2018, a BBC investigation claimed the insulation used, manufactured by Celotex, had not passed required safety tests.\n\nThe BBC's Panorama programme was told that the way Celotex tested and sold the product could amount to corporate manslaughter.\n\nThe company, owned by French material giant Saint-Gobain, said at the time it could not identify any evidence to support Panorama's allegations.\n\nIt told the Victoria Derbyshire programme on Monday it was \"considering its position\" in relation to the legal action, which it said it learned about on Friday 7 June.\n\nIn a statement, it added that it was \"continuing to cooperate fully with the public inquiry\" and remained \"committed to providing all relevant information... to assist it in its work\".\n\n\"Celotex reaffirms our deepest sympathies to everyone affected by the fire,\" it continued.\n\nThe legal process in the US is expected to take several years\n\nWhirlpool said two separate investigations found no evidence of any fault with the fridge-freezer model that was in flat 16, and confirmed it complied with safety requirements.\n\n\"We are committed to assisting the Grenfell Tower inquiry in any way we can as it continues to investigate all the potential origins and causes of the fire and how it spread, a spokesman said.\n\n\"While the inquiry is ongoing, it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time,\" he added.\n\n\"Two separate investigations have been carried out - one by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), and another by Whirlpool,\" he explained.\n\n\"Both investigations independently found no evidence of any fault with this model and confirmed that it fully complied with all safety requirements. These conclusions have also been verified by the government's chief scientific adviser.\"\n\nHe added: \"We would like to reassure owners of these products that they are safe and they can continue to use them as normal.\"\n\nUnder US state law, the legal process is expected to take several years.

Michael Gove: Cocaine use \"was a crime and a mistake\"\n\nMichael Gove has admitted he was \"fortunate\" to avoid prison after using cocaine several times 20 years ago.\n\nThe Tory leadership hopeful previously said he took the class A drug while working as a journalist.\n\nAsked if he should have gone to prison, Mr Gove told the Andrew Marr Show: \"I was fortunate in that I didn't, but I do think it was a profound mistake.\"\n\nTory leadership rival Sajid Javid said people who took Class A drugs needed to understand the damage they were doing.\n\nSpeaking to Sky's Sophy Ridge on Sunday, home secretary Mr Javid said: \"It doesn't matter if you are middle class or not - anyone who takes class A drugs, they need to think about that supply chain that comes from Colombia, let's say, to Chelsea and the number of lives that are destroyed along the way.\"\n\nApologising for taking cocaine, Mr Gove said: \"I deeply regret the mistake that I made.\n\n\"It was a crime, it was a mistake.\"\n\nHowever, the environment secretary denied he had ever had a drug \"habit\".\n\nA Times article Mr Gove wrote in 1999 - around the time he admits having taken the drug - has been republished.\n\nIn it he criticised \"middle class professionals\" who took drugs - leading to headlines calling him a \"hypocrite\".\n\nBut speaking on Marr on Sunday morning, Mr Gove denied that amounted to hypocrisy.\n\n\"I think anyone can read the article and make their own minds up,\" he said. \"The point that I made in the article is that if any of us lapse sometimes from standards that we uphold, that is human.\n\n\"The thing to do is not necessarily then to say that the standards should be lowered. It should be to reflect on the lapse and to seek to do better in the future.\"\n\nWhen asked if he had declared his drug use on his Esta form for entry into the US, under the visa waiver scheme, he replied: \"I don't believe that I have ever, on any occasion, failed to tell the truth about this when asked directly.\"\n\nHe added: \"I think it is the case that if I were elected as the prime minister of this country then of course it would be the case that I would be able to go to the United States.\"\n\nAnd asked if he had declared his drug use before becoming a minister, Mr Gove replied: \"No one asked.

In fact, I may have been doing icing sugar.\"\n\nAndrea Leadsom said she \"smoked weed at university\"\n\nAndrea Leadsom told the Independent that she \"smoked weed at university\" but had \"never smoked it again since\".\n\nOn Saturday, Dominic Raab, who has previously admitted smoking cannabis, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: \"I think Michael has set out that he made a mistake.\n\n\"It was a long time ago, people will judge it as it is but I do believe in a second chance society.\"\n\nAnd Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt - another candidate - told the Times he had drunk a cannabis lassi while backpacking through India.\n\nEsther McVey, who is also hoping to become the new Conservative Party leader, told the Marr show she had never taken class A drugs.\n\nShe later told ITV News that she had tried cannabis when she was \"much younger\".\n\nMs McVey also accused MPs trying to prevent Brexit of \"tearing up 400 years of history\", as she defended her right to prorogue Parliament - essentially shutting it down - to leave the EU without a deal if she became prime minister.\n\nThe former work and pensions secretary said it would not be her \"priority\" to suspend sittings in the House of Commons in the run-up to the 31 October deadline - but said she would be willing to \"use all the tools at our disposal\" if she won the race to replace Mrs May.\n\nMr Gove said such a move would be \"wrong\" and contradict \"the best traditions of British democracy\".\n\nMr Hunt, meanwhile, said Angela Merkel told him the European Union \"would be willing to negotiate\" on the Brexit deal with a new prime minister.\n\nThe foreign secretary claimed the German chancellor said Brussels \"would look at any solutions\" the UK puts forward to solve the Northern Irish border issue as he tried to emphasise his credentials as a deal-maker in the race to replace Mrs May.\n\nOn Tuesday 18 June BBC One will be hosting a live election debate between the Conservative MPs who are still in the race.\n\nIf you would like to ask the candidates a question live on air, use the form below.

I had grass on my wheels.\"\n\nTold to stay focused, he said: \"I am focused but they are stealing the race from us.\"\n\nVettel complained that Hamilton could have gone to the inside but that was inaccurate reading of the situation as it unfolded.\n\nNevertheless, doubtless many will feel that Vettel should have been excused and the drivers allowed to race.\n\nHowever, others will see it as yet another error under pressure from Vettel, whose 2018 season unravelled as a result of a series of them and who made another in Bahrain earlier this year, spinning after being passed by Hamilton.\n\nAnd the stewards may well have used precedent to inform the decision, such as when Red Bull's Max Verstappen was penalised in the same fashion for forcing then-Ferrari driver Kimi Raikkonen off the track in last year's Japanese Grand Prix.\n\nHow did it unfold?\n\nVettel had been in front of the race from the start, after converting his pole position, and led through the pit stops.\n\nBut once on to the hard tyres after the stops, Hamilton began to pile the pressure on Vettel.\n\nHe rejoined after his stop on lap 29 five seconds behind Vettel and was on his tail 10 laps later.\n\nHamilton stayed within a second of Vettel for the next nine laps until the key moment.\n\nVettel made a mistake entering the challenging Turn Three/Four chicane and ran over the grass on the second, left-handed part.\n\nAs he rejoined the track, Hamilton went to overtake him around the outside, but Vettel did not leave him a car's width on the outside of the track and the Mercedes driver had to back off.\n\nIt cost Ferrari another victory in 2019, a year in which Mercedes have won every race, but in which the Italian team could have had two and possibly three wins out of seven.\n\nAnd it also ended what had been a tense, exciting race, in which two of the finest drivers in the world were battling closely.\n\nVettel's team-mate Charles Leclerc lost victory in Bahrain when his engine hit problems late in the race, the Monegasque was looking the form man in Azerbaijan before a crash in qualifying. And now Vettel has cost Ferrari another win.\n\nHe was furious with the decision, saying over the radio at the end of the race: \"No, no, no. Not like that. You have to be an absolute blind man, you go on the grass how are you supposed to control your car. This is the wrong world.\"\n\nHe then pulled over in the pits long before the parc ferme area where he is meant to stop and pushed his car backwards into the garage of governing body the FIA.\n\nThen he stormed off into the Ferrari area, and appeared to decide he was not going to go to the podium, but was collected by an F1 official, and then went through the Mercedes garage before finally heading to the podium.\n\nOn the way, Vettel moved the number one board from in front of Hamilton's Mercedes and moved it in front of the empty space where his car should have been.\n\nHe entered the green room and said to Hamilton: \"Where am I supposed to go?\"\n\nHamilton responded with a shrug: \"Ach.\" Then added: \"Hard race, though, man.\"\n\nHamilton, meanwhile, received some boos from the crowd as he insisted: \"Naturally that's absolutely not the way I wanted to win.\n\n\"I took the corner normally, but when you come back on the track you are not meant to come back straight on the racing line. You're meant to rejoin safely.\n\n\"I forced the error and he went wide... we nearly collided, but that's motor racing.\"\n\nHamilton had dropped back to 2.5secs behind Vettel when the drivers were informed of the penalty but he soon closed right back up to Vettel's tail, as Leclerc in third place began to close on both of them.\n\nLeclerc did not quite manage to get close enough to Vettel to overtake him once the German's penalty was applied.\n\nHamilton's team-mate Valtteri Bottas had a quiet race on his way to fourth place, while Red Bull's Max Verstappen fought back from ninth on the grid to take fifth ahead of the Renaults of Daniel Ricciardo and Nico Hulkenberg.\n\nWhat happens next?\n\nFrance in two weeks' time. Unfortunately for Ferrari, the track layout is likely to favour Mercedes and that first win for the red cars will probably have to wait a while longer.\n\nWhat they said\n\nSebastian Vettel: \"Well I think first of all, I really enjoyed the race and the crowd on every lap. Seeing them cheer me on it was very intense. I think you should ask the pitwall what they think we had a great show and Lewis showed some good respect.\"\n\nCharles Leclerc: \"I'm pretty happy with my performance. We were very quick. The race pace was strong. I'm disappointed for the team - I don't know what happened [with Seb] but the team deserved a victory today\"", "Jeremy Corbyn has welcomed the new Labour MP Lisa Forbes to Westminster\n\nJeremy Corbyn has been criticised by several of his MPs for his leadership on anti-Semitism and Brexit during a \"heated\" meeting in Parliament.\n\nMarie Rimmer told him people \"who have worked with you for ages\" were turning away while Jess Phillips said those \"in the cult of Corbyn\" were protected.\n\nVeteran MP Margaret Hodge criticised the choice of Lisa Forbes as Labour's Peterborough by-election candidate.\n\nMs Forbes apologised to MPs for liking an anti-Semitic post on social media.\n\nThe new MP, who won Thursday's by-election by 683 votes, caused controversy during the campaign when she appeared to endorse a post on Facebook which said Theresa May had a \"Zionist slave masters agenda\".\n\nJewish Labour groups have called for Ms Forbes, who will take her seat in Parliament on Monday, to have the whip suspended.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The 20-year-old could have pulled a goal back but fired wide shortly after White had made it 2-0.\n\nBut the youngster was not downhearted and combined with right-winger Emslie, and midfielder Kim Little, as they kept the England defence on their toes.\n\nLisa Evans also had a chance to score before Emslie's reply, but lost control of the ball in the box.\n\nThere was certainly a swagger about Kerr's side, who have nine players in their squad who play in the FA Women's Super League in England, the only fully professional league in Europe.\n\nTheir fitness did not seem to drop, and while they could not find an equaliser, Kerr and her team will be hugely encouraged they can reach their target of the knockout stages, particularly as in some cases three teams from a group will progress.\n\n'We've got to be relentless' - what they said\n\nEngland boss Phil Neville: \"I was pleased with the result.

And, as Theresa May readies herself for the exit, Donald Trump, who has definitely embarrassed her in the past, didn't repeat that habit today.\n\nInstead, he spoke warmly of her, suggesting that history may judge her much more kindly than the manner of her departure suggests.\n\nBut some of the most notable remarks were not related to the prime minister in any case, but to what's next.\n\nWhether you are overjoyed about Theresa May leaving or not, it is telling that the three names Donald Trump mentioned immediately when asked about the next leader were Boris Johnson, Jeremy Hunt, and Michael Gove, categorising them deliberately or not as the three most likely candidates to win the keys to No 10.\n\nAll three have been invited to meet Donald Trump. You wouldn't expect the US president to invite the football team of candidates for the job to spend time with him on this visit. But it's notable that neither Sajid Javid nor Matt Hancock - both cabinet contenders - received invites to talk or to meet. Nor did one of the other Brexiteer frontrunners, Dominic Raab.\n\nOf course, smart candidates could even turn the lack of invitation to their advantage. Donald Trump won't of course have a say in this race and he is such a Marmite politician that chumming up to him is not necessarily an advantage for any of the wannabes.\n\nBut the invite list does tell us something about the state of the race right now. And in the next 24 hours we'll see whom, beyond Nigel Farage, the president actually meets one-on-one.\n\nThe other striking note was not about Theresa May either, even though, as her last big appearance alongside a foreign leader it was, in a way, a very grand leaving do. Instead, it was the Labour leader who featured.\n\nIt's not exactly surprising that the two men would not be bosom buddies. Politically they have a greater distance between them than the width of the Atlantic.\n\nMr Trump revealed not just (no real surprise) that he doesn't think much of Jeremy Corbyn, apt when Jeremy Corbyn doesn't think much of him either. He also revealed that Mr Corbyn had asked him to meet and that he, after considering his request, had decided not to do so.\n\nThe Labour leader has always said that he is interested in dialogue. But his position does appear rather curious.\n\nMr Corbyn chose very publicly not to attend the dinner for Mr Trump last night at the Queen's invitiation. He then led - very publicly - the protests against the president today. Yet we now know that he had actually asked for a meeting of his own, but was then rebuffed.\n\nDiplomacy, or the lack of it, can be a complicated business. We've learnt that from observing Donald Trump and Theresa May over the last few years.\n\nBut those pitfalls won't disappear when the prime minister does.

She won her first WTA title at 17, in just her second Tour-level event.\n\nShe has won more matches than any other female player since this year's Australian Open, including victories over big names such as Simona Halep and Jelena Ostapenko, and is yet to drop a set on her way to the last four.\n\nHowever, Konta had a three-set victory in the Rome quarter-finals last month.\n\n\"It is going to be very tough, I just can't wait to play again,\" Vondrousova said after her win.\n\nKonta's resurgence on the clay has been one which few people would have predicted at the start of the clay season, when she was ranked 47th in the world.\n\nThe former world number four has shown her pedigree on grass and hard surfaces, but had never won a main-draw match on the Paris clay until this year.\n\nSigns of her improved fortunes were evident as she reached two WTA finals at the Morocco Open and Italian Open - and that form has continued at Roland Garros.\n\nNow she has won 15 matches on the surface in 2019, meaning only Martic stands alongside her in terms of clay-court victories on the tour this year.\n\nLinking up with new coach Dimitri Zavialoff at the end of last year has paid dividends, Konta once again showing increased trust in her ability to cause opponents problems with her hard-hitting game.\n\nYet, although Konta's confidence has been evident throughout the tournament, the manner of this 71-minute victory against someone of Stephens' pedigree left those on half-full Chatrier murmuring with surprise.\n\nStephens, who won the 2017 US Open as well as reaching the final here last year, was rated as the favourite coming into Tuesday's quarter-final, with former Grand Slam champions Martina Navratilova and Lindsay Davenport backing the American.\n\nKonta came under immediate pressure in the opening game of the match, needing to see off a break point and come through a lengthy deuce to hold serve after eight minutes.\n\nThat proved pivotal as Konta swatted her lacklustre opponent aside from then on.\n\nThe Briton's aggressive approach did the damage as she ended up hitting 25 winners and six aces on her way to taking 87% of first-serve points.\n\nStephens, usually nimble around the court, had no answers to Konta's power and precision.\n\nKonta broke Stephens' serve for a 3-1 lead, claiming the next three games to win the opening set in just 33 minutes.\n\nShe continued to dominate in the second set, not dropping a point on serve until she produced a double fault in the final game.\n\nBy that time it mattered little, the Briton resetting to take victory when Stephens pushed a return inches wide of the line.\n\nPerhaps a sign of Konta's renewed belief was evident in her relatively understated celebration: a simple turn to her coach Zavialoff and boyfriend Jackson Wade wearing a wide grin, before raising both arms aloft as she took the acclaim of the crowd.\n\nKonta's path to the latter stages - and a potential chance to become the first Briton to win Roland Garros since Sue Barker in 1976 - has opened up following an unpredictable women's tournament.\n\nAfter beating Stephens, Konta will face an opponent in Vondrousova who, like the Briton, reached the Roland Garros quarter-finals for the first time.\n\nStephens was one of only three top-10 seeded players to make the women's quarter-finals, along with Romania's defending champion Halep and Australian eighth seed Ashleigh Barty.\n\nFormer world number one Halep and Barty will meet in the other semi-final - if they beat 17-year-old American Amanda Anisimova and 14th seed Madison Keys respectively in their quarter-finals on Wednesday.\n\n'The best I've seen Konta play' - what they said\n\nBBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller: \"The entire performance was breathtaking. Everything about Konta's performance was majestic. Sloane Stephens could do nothing on Konta's serve. She had the stuffing knocked out of her. That's the best I have ever seen Konta play.\"\n\nFormer world number five Daniela Hantuchova for BBC Radio 5 Live: \"Konta couldn't ask for a better match and if she keeps playing like this I don't see anyone that can stop her. Simona Halep was my pick to win the trophy before the tournament but the way Johanna played it will be really interesting.\"\n\nRadio 5 Live tennis commentator Naomi Cavaday: \"I felt for sure every set would be tight and ultra-competitive but Johanna was too good for Stephens. I think Konta can take out Halep if she plays like that. That was phenomenal.\"\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "Trade tensions between the US and China are weighing on global economic growth\n\nThe global economy is weakening, according to a new assessment from the World Bank.\n\nThe bank said it now expects growth of 2.6% for 2019 edging up to 2.7% the following year.\n\nThe slowdown is widespread, according to the Bank's economists, affecting many countries.\n\nAnd there are risks to even this subdued outlook, including the uncertainty for business created by international trade tensions.\n\nOne of the lead authors of the report, Franziska Ohnsorge, said the World Bank had warned in its previous forecasts six months ago of darkening skies.\n\n\"Then it was a forecast\" she told the BBC. \"But now we see it in the data.\"\n\nIn January, the World Bank changed its outlook for 2019 from 3% growth to 2.9%.\n\nThere has been a \"broad based disappointment\" affecting trade, investment and manufacturing and developed as well as emerging economies, Ms Ohnsorge said.\n\nTrade conflict has been an important factor behind the weaker growth, in particular the tension between the US and China.\n\nBetween them, the two countries account for a third of global economic activity. Ms Ohnsorge said the uncertainty has an impact on investment by business\n\nIt has been recurrent theme in the World Bank's analysis.\n\nChina's growth is expected to continue to slow.\n\nIn the three decades up to 2010 the annual average was 10%. The forecast for this year is 6.2%\n\nThat partly reflects a deliberately encouraged slowdown which the Chinese government has sought to achieve, believing as most economists also do, that the earlier growth rate could not be sustained much longer.\n\nSo far, it has been reasonably orderly and the \"hard landing\" that many feared has not materialised.\n\nBut there is also an element of trade tension in the slower growth that China is expected to record this year.\n\nGlobal economic weakness has a key impact on the Bank's principal role: to promote economic development and the reduction of poverty.\n\nAfrica's economy is growing but not enough to reduce poverty on the continent, said the World Bank\n\nDavid Malpass, who was recently named as president of the World Bank by Donald Trump, said \"Stronger economic growth is essential to reducing poverty and improving living standards.\"\n\nFigures for Africa are particularly troublesome in his respect.\n\nAlthough the bank is forecasting somewhat stronger growth there this year than last -

In other words, she is going and so one day will he, and the relationship will endure.\n\nIn a sentence Mr Trump could never repeat, she said: \"I have always believed that co-operation and compromise are the basis of strong alliances.\"\n\nAs for the president, he kept the bombast to a minimum.\n\nOn Britain's future relationship with the Chinese telecoms giant Huawei, he seemed reassured, saying \"we are going to be able to work out any differences\" and \"we will have no problem with that\".\n\nOn Brexit, he was more supportive of Mrs May than in his weekend newspaper interviews, saying the prime minister \"has brought it to a very good point\" and \"she has done a very good job\".\n\nAnd on a future trade deal, the president generated headlines by confirming the NHS would be part of the negotiations.\n\nAs for Jeremy Corbyn, the president said he had refused a request to meet the Labour leader, dismissing him as \"a negative force\", clearly believing this is not a man he is likely to have to work with any time soon.\n\nYes, there were gags. The president teased Mrs May about not suing the EU during the Brexit talks.\n\nHe also joked about who might be a suitable successor in Downing Street.\n\nBut the mood was more low key than high drama.", "The world is facing a climate catastrophe and businesses around the world must address it urgently or face the ultimate sanction for a public company, shareholders who refuse to back them any more.\n\nThat is not a message from an environmental action group but from the largest money manager in the UK, Legal & General Investment Management, which manages £1 trillion worth of UK pension fund investments.\n\nIts climate warning was the top of a list of concerns about the way companies are run.\n\nOther red lights included the level of executive pay, lack of diversity in senior corporate roles, the role (and cost) of political lobbying and the poor quality of the financial information provided by auditors.\n\nLegal & General insist that it is not just virtue signalling.\n\nThe company voted against the re-election of nearly 4,000 directors in 2018 - an increase of 37%. That included votes against over 100 board chairs on the basis of gender diversity alone.\n\nLegal & General's director of corporate governance, Sacha Sadan, said it was getting tougher with company boards and managements.\n\n\"2018 was a record year for us as we continued to engage with companies on a broad range of issues, using our voting power to influence change on behalf of our clients. The increased figures reflect the higher standards we expect companies to adhere to\"\n\nThe collapse last year of construction and services company Carillion which continued to pay out high salaries, shareholder dividends and get a clean bill of health from its auditors until just months before its sudden liquidation caused widespread outrage and shone a light on the standard of company stewardship in the UK.\n\nA recent report from a committee of MPs was sceptical about asset managers' appetite and ability to raise the quality of company management.\n\nThe business select committee chair said last month: \"We do not have confidence in institutional investors in exercising their stewardship functions. We cannot rely on shareholders to exert pressure.\"\n\nLegal & General admit they too have made mistakes.\n\nIn 2012, the company voted in favour of a pay formula for the chief executive of housebuilder Persimmon that saw Jeff Fairburn awarded a pay packet of £100m. Mr Sadan told the BBC it had learnt its lesson. \"Since then we insist that maximum payouts are capped.\"\n\nThe VERY best way for investors to exert pressure is to sell their shares - or not become shareholders of misbehaving companies in the first place.\n\nPlenty of fund managers argue they are trying to \"reform from within\" while happily accepting bumper dividend pay outs from companies in some of the most controversial sectors - such as oil and tobacco.\n\nLegal & General insist they are prepared to do that and last year issued a list of companies whose shares they decided to dump. The list of eight included Russian oil company Rosneft, the China Construction Bank and Subaru.\n\nLegal & General say that all eight of those on the \"black list\" have been in touch to try and get themselves off it. Proof positive, say L&G, that their brand of shareholder engagement - or disengagement - really works.\n\nMany in the UK might find that argument more convincing if the list of no-go investments included companies closer to home that would REALLY feel the cold shoulder of the UK's biggest money manager.\n\nShell boss Ben van Beurden's pay more than doubled last year\n\nFor example, Royal Dutch Shell is the UK's biggest dividend payer by miles - offering investors a tempting 5.8% return on their money. Legal & General say they were successful in moving the chief executive's performance targets to be based on safety and environmental improvements rather than raw profit. They were less successful in tackling the sheer amount he pocketed last year - a colossal £17m.\n\nFor decades, many firms have paid lip service to climate change without substantially altering the way they do business.\n\nThen investors joined the climate campaign and began applying pressure from within.\n\nTheir message is that acting on climate change isn't just a feel-good - it's a necessity to protect long-term assets.\n\nThe Bank of England, for instance, recently warned that $20tn (£15.3tn) of assets could be wiped out by climate change.\n\nThis alarming note is being amplified by fund managers who are pulling their investments out of fossil fuels.\n\nThey include the World Council of Churches, the Rockefeller family and insurance giants AXA and Allianz.\n\nCollectively their portfolios are said to total about £7tn and they'll increasingly influence firms with discretion over their use of fossil fuels.\n\nBut what about the massively-powerful fossil fuel giants whose very existence depends on mining those carbon compounds the world can't afford to burn?\n\nThe slave trade was abolished only after traders were compensated for their \"loss of human property\".\n\nWill society need to compensate the oil majors for the assets they must leave underground?\n\nAsset managers are effectively the \"masters of the universe\" when it comes to telling companies how to behave as they have to vote on their investors behalf. But they have powerful customers of their own to answer to.\n\nIncreasing numbers of pension fund trustees are seeking assurances that their employees' retirement contributions are not finding their way into embarrassing or inappropriate investments. The Church of England was not thrilled to find out its pension scheme was invested in the now defunct high cost credit company Wonga.\n\nMore recently - and more importantly - was the decision by Norway's sovereign wealth fund to divest itself of some of its fossil fuel investments (paradoxically perhaps - the source of all the money in the first place).\n\nBut what these examples show is that the savers and citizens, on whose behalf this money is managed, are becoming more aware - and more willing to object - about how that is done.", "Sure Start centres, aimed at improving early years health and education in England, brought \"big benefits for children's health\", researchers say.\n\nThe Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) found a positive impact from the scheme, launched 20 years ago as a flagship of Tony Blair's Labour Party.\n\nBut the think tank warns that funding has been cut and 500 sites have closed.\n\nThe Local Government Association says councils have \"done all they can within ever tightening budgets\".\n\nThe report examines the effect of Sure Start, an early intervention policy designed to support the wellbeing of children before they started school.\n\nThe centres provide parents with information and advice about health, education, childcare and employment, particularly in disadvantaged areas.\n\nSure Start centres are credited with lowering the rates of children needing hospital treatment\n\nResearchers describe it as a story of a \"fast rollout followed by deep spending cuts\" - but they say the centres have brought measurable improvements.\n\nThe provision of Sure Start centres \"significantly reduced\" the incidence of children going to hospital up to the age of 11, says the study, which looked at the impact on health.\n\nThe study found that for every one Sure Start centre per thousand children there were 5,000 fewer hospital admissions for 11-year-olds each year.\n\nChristine Farquharson, a research economist at the IFS, said the drop in hospitalisation rates was the result of parenting advice, health education, lessons about keeping children safe and improving children's behaviour.\n\nFor younger children, the reductions in hospitalisation were more likely to be for \"infection-related\" problems, says the study, while for older children it was more likely to be for accidents and injuries.\n\nThese \"benefits are strongest for children living in disadvantaged areas\", says the study, while there was relatively little difference in wealthier areas.\n\nHowever, levels of childhood obesity were not significantly affected by Sure Start, says the study.\n\nSure Start was a flagship policy after Tony Blair's election win in 1997\n\nThe IFS researchers, funded by the Nuffield Foundation charity, are confident the reductions in hospital admissions can be attributed to access to Sure Start centres, when other social and geographical factors are taken into account.\n\nBut the think tank warns Sure Start centres have had declining support.\n\nSpending peaked in 2010 at £1.8bn (in current value) but was cut by two-thirds to £600m by 2017-18 - and about 500 centres closed between 2011 and 2017.\n\nMost of these closures were in better-off areas but 170 were in the poorest 30% of neighbourhoods, says the think tank study.\n\nThere are also big differences in levels of local provision, says the study, with decisions about children's centres having been devolved to local authorities - which in turn have faced funding pressures.\n\nResearcher Ms Farquharson said there needed to be more attention paid to what worked - particularly in the run-up to the government's spending review.\n\n\"It's crucial that both central government and local authorities use the best evidence,\" she said, adding that \"limited resources are best focused on the poorest areas\".\n\nAntoinette Bramble, of the Local Government Association, said such centres were an \"incredibly important service\" for parents of young children.\n\nBut she said many councils could not afford them - and more would be lost.\n\n\"It is inevitable that without new investment from government in children's services, councils will face the difficult but unavoidable decision of having to cut or close early help services such as children's centres,\" she said.\n\nTracy Brabin, Labour's shadow early years minister, said it was \"heart breaking that such a vital service, which helps disadvantaged children the most, has had two-thirds of its funding cut\".\n\nA government spokesman said: \"Children's centres can play an important role in supporting families.\n\n\"Local councils decide how to organise and provide services for families in their areas to meet local needs - whether this is through children's centre buildings or delivering services in different ways, and we continuously reflect on what works best.\"", "The US has said China is playing a \"blame game,\" misrepresenting trade talks between the two countries.\n\nIn a statement, the Trump administration also accused China of \"backpedalling\" on trade agreements.\n\nThe comments come in response to Beijing's release of a paper blaming Washington for the setback in talks.\n\nThe US reignited the trade war last month by raising tariffs on billions of dollars worth of Chinese goods, prompting Beijing to retaliate.\n\nThe two countries have been in an escalating conflict over trade for the past year. The scope of the battle has expanded in recent months as Washington has tightened trade restrictions on Chinese telecoms giant Huawei.\n\nHopes for an imminent trade deal were shattered in May after the Trump administration more than doubled tariffs on $200bn (£157.9bn) of Chinese imports and threatened additional duties.\n\n\"Our negotiating positions have been consistent throughout these talks, and China backpedalled on important elements of what the parties had agreed to,\" a statement from the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) said.\n\nThe statement said the US was \"disappointed\" the Chinese had chosen in recent public statements \"to pursue a blame game misrepresenting the nature and history of trade negotiations between the two countries\".\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nBeijing released a \"White Paper\" on Sunday, which set out China's position in trade talks including some of its prerequisites for a deal.\n\nIn the paper, China said in order to reach a deal \"the US should remove all additional tariffs imposed on Chinese exports\".\n\nWhile China was willing to work together with the US to reach a \"mutually beneficial and win-win agreement\", the paper said \"mutual respect\" was key.\n\n\"One side should not cross the other's 'red lines'. The right to development cannot be sacrificed, still the less can sovereignty be undermined,\" it said.\n\nSticking points throughout US-China trade talks have included whether and how fast to roll back tariffs, as well as how to enforce any trade deal.\n\nThe US has wanted to keep tariffs in place as part of the enforcement mechanism and to be the sole arbiter of whether China had broken the terms of the deal, analysts say.\n\n\"Our insistence on detailed and enforceable commitments from the Chinese in no way constitutes a threat to Chinese sovereignty,\" the USTR said.\n\nThe trade war is already weighing on the global economy and China's \"White Paper\" laid out some of its impact so far.\n\nChina's export volumes to the US fell by 9.7% year-on-year in the first four months of 2019 due to the US tariff measures.\n\nAccording to Chinese statistics, direct investment by Chinese companies into the US dropped 10% year-on-year in 2018, the paper said.\n\nNo official trade talks have been scheduled since the last round ended in May.\n\nChinese President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump are expected to meet at the G20 meeting of leaders in Japan later this month.", "One of the UK's most high-profile stockpickers has suspended trading in his largest fund as rising numbers of investors ask for their money back.\n\nNeil Woodford said after \"an increased level of redemptions\", investors would not be allowed to \"redeem, purchase or transfer shares\" in the fund.\n\nInvestors have withdrawn about £560m from the fund over the past four weeks.\n\nKent County Council also wanted to withdraw its £263m investment, but was unable to do so before trading halted.\n\nIn a statement, the council said: \"The announcement on Monday that trading in the investment fund was suspended was not anticipated. KCC is disappointed that, as a major investor in the fund, we did not receive this prior notification.\n\n\"We do not know whether the decision to suspend trading was linked to the council's decision to redeem.\"\n\nA stockpicker - or fund manager - analyses the potential of different stocks to try to decide whether or not they will make a good investment.\n\nAt its peak, the Woodford Equity Income fund managed £10.2bn worth of assets, such as local authority pension funds.\n\nHowever, it now manages £3.7bn, according to the financial services and research firm Morningstar.\n\nMr Woodford's firm, Woodford Investment Management, is also the biggest investor in Kier Group, the construction and services group which on Monday warned on profits, sending its shares crashing 41%.\n\nIt is understood that the fall in Kier's share price is not connected to the decision to suspend trading in the Woodford Equity Income fund.\n\nThe firm said the suspension would give it \"time to reposition the element of the fund's portfolio invested in unquoted and less liquid stocks, in to more liquid investments\".\n\nThe Financial Conduct Authority, the city watchdog, said: \"The FCA is aware of this situation and in contact with the firms involved to ensure that actions undertaken are in the best interests of all the fund's investors.\"\n\nDaniel Godfrey, an adviser to fund management groups, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that Neil Woodford was \"one of the finest fund managers that Britain's ever produced, although clearly he is having a dark and terrible moment.\"\n\nHe believes Mr Woodford could bounce back from this blow.\n\n\"There could be a new dawn and it's not necessarily the end,\" he said.\n\n\"It's clearly a very dark and difficult moment for Neil Woodford and his business and there may well have to be a hit to valuations to get rid of some of the unlisted holdings. But from there it'll still be probably a reasonably big fund.\n\n\"It could well be the case that in five years' time, we're looking at it and anyone who bought when it reopens will have had a great performance.\"\n\nThe suspension of Mr Woodford's Equity Income fund has hit shares in fund platform Hargreaves Lansdown, which included the fund in its flagship list of share recommendations, Wealth 50.\n\nHargreaves removed the fund from its recommendation list on Monday, but investors have not responded positively.\n\nShares in the company have slumped more than 4%, leaving it the biggest loser in the FTSE 100.\n\nMr Woodford launched his own fund five years ago this month, with its corporate headquarters in Oxford.\n\nIn its first year, it gave investors a return of 18% on their money, compared with an average rise of only 2% on the London Stock Exchange at the time.\n\nHowever, after the figures were released he warned: \"It's far too early to conclude that the fund's strategy has worked.\"\n\nBefore that, the 59-year-old had worked as part of the UK equities team at investment managers Invesco Perpetual for more than 26 years.\n\nHe was appointed a CBE for his services to the economy in 2013.\n\nThanks to the banking crisis a decade ago, we know what a \"liquidity\" crisis looks like. When a bank's customers all want their money back at the same time, it fails; no modern lender holds enough reserves to cope with the outflow.\n\nNeil Woodford's problems are a fund-management version of that old-fashioned bank run. Investors in the Woodford Equity Income fund have been asking for their money back at a rapid rate - about £10m a week. Unlike a bank, the fund has all the money - but it is invested in a series of companies.\n\nTo come up with the cash at once, the fund would be forced into a fire sale, with the result that investors would almost certainly get back less - much less - than they put in.\n\nThe situation has been exacerbated by Woodford's choice of investments - many of the public companies, like Kier, Circassia and Purplebricks, have turned out to be dogs, while about 10% of the fund is in non-quoted companies, whose shares are not listed on a public stock exchange.\n\nSelling those shares can be difficult and time-consuming, so the fund has decided to stop the rot and end withdrawals. We do not know when they will resume; while the gates are up, the fund's management will be scrabbling to raise cash.\n\nThe big question now is what next for Woodford?\n\nPeople invested with him for one reason - his reputation as a canny stockpicker who was happy to defy market convention and produced better-than-average results.\n\nIf that reputation is shot - and on top of that he has stopped people from accessing their money - then the reason to choose him over his rivals has been lost.", "Welcome to Britain’s top secret laboratory where defences against chemical weapons, ballistics, explosives and cyber-security are researched.\n\nThe BBC was given access inside Porton Down to see what the highly secretive facility was like and, for the first time ever, entered a cleansed version of a level four laboratory.

I think that's a nonsense. Look around you, that's not what we see in this country.\n\n\"Of course there are people struggling with the cost of living. I understand that. But the point being is that we are addressing these things through getting to the root causes.\"\n\nThe chancellor said that for many people, the market economy was not working as it was \"supposed to\", and the idea the economy is \"generating and distributing wealth is at odds with the practice that they are experiencing\".\n\nHe said the government should be ensuring the market was \"delivering in the way that the textbooks tell us it will work.\n\n\"To deliver through competition, the best deal for consumers and to distribute wealth in a way that is fair.\n\n\"To the extent that it's not working, we have got to evolve the system.\"\n\nThe UN report cites independent experts saying that 14m people in the UK - a fifth of the population - live in poverty, according to a new measure that takes into account costs such as housing and childcare.\n\nAccording to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, 1.5m people experienced destitution in 2017 - meaning they had less than £10 a day after housing costs, or had to go without at least two essentials such as shelter, food, heat, light, clothing or toiletries during a one-month period.\n\nMr Hammond's comments came during an interview on Monday with Newsnight's Emily Maitlis, in which he warned MPs vying to be leader of the Conservative Party that they risked becoming \"Theresa May mark two\" unless they accepted the realities of Brexit.\n\nThe chancellor, who has yet to reveal who he will support in his party's leadership race, laid down a challenge for the candidates.\n\n\"Explain to me how you will avoid becoming Theresa May mark two, stuck in a holding pattern,\" he said.\n\nHe criticised some of the candidates' Brexit plans.\n\n\"An extension of time to try to renegotiate, when the EU have already said they have finished the negotiation and, indeed, have disbanded their negotiating team, strikes me as a not very auspicious policy.\"\n\nHe added: \"The debate we're having now is here, in the UK, about whether we are going to sign the Withdrawal Agreement or not, and about what kind of future relationship we then want to have - because the European Union is willing to talk to us about the shape of the future relationship.\"\n\nMr Hammond also said he believed that MPs from all sides should \"stop pontificating and get off their high horses\" in an effort to resolve the Brexit impasse.\n\nAsked whether he would prefer a no-deal outcome or no Brexit, he replied: \"Neither is an acceptable outcome, because no deal would be catastrophic for the country and its economy - and no Brexit would be seen as a gross breach of faith with the public.\"\n\nHe added: \"So we as democrats and we as parliamentarians should be absolutely clear that we cannot tolerate either of those outcomes,\" and said \"we have a solemn obligation to find a solution which avoids\" either.\n\nHe said that meant a deal was required.\n\n\"We will all be grumpy about it, we will all be dissatisfied.

At the same time, the authorities were concerned about the knock-on effects of Cyclone Fani which had already struck India and Bangladesh.\n\nThe weather deteriorated in the Nepalese Himalayas days after the cyclone, forcing the government to suspend all mountaineering activities for at least two days.\n\nNearly 20 tents at the camp were blown away by strong winds and after the warning, several climbers, who were already en route to some of the higher camps, returned to base camp.\n\nProlonged bad weather meant that the practice of fixing bolted rope to assist climbers trying to reach the summit was delayed.\n\nBritish climber Robin Haynes Fisher (pictured) is among those who have died this year\n\nMeanwhile the crowd at base camp continued to build.\n\nEverest - which lies on the border between Nepal and China - can be reached from the Chinese side as well. However, the Chinese government issues fewer permits, and many mountaineering experts find the climb less interesting.\n\nAfter the ropes were fixed by mid-May, the first feasible clear-weather window was 19 and 20 May.\n\nBut only a few teams chose to climb then while the majority waited for the second window - from 22 to 24 May.\n\nMountaineering experts say this was when the crowd management went wrong.\n\n23 May saw the maximum number of climbers on one day - more than 250.\n\nClimbers had to wait for hours below the summit - both on the way up and on the way down.\n\nMany of them were exhausted and their oxygen cylinders were running low.\n\nNepal's mountaineering regulation requires expedition teams to have liaison officers on the mountains.\n\nThis time 59 of them were appointed to accompany the teams but only five of them stayed until the final part of the climb.\n\nSome did not even turn up, while most of those who did went home after a few days at the base camp.\n\nA photograph showing a long tailback went viral on the internet\n\nThese are often regular government officials who have no mountaineering experience, so they find it difficult to cope with the high altitude.\n\nThey get paid by expedition teams and most of them are happy to stay at home.\n\nIf all the liaison officials had stayed on the mountain, managing the crowd would have been much easier, a top government source at Everest base camp told the BBC.\n\n\"We could have spread the teams so that the first feasible window (19-20 May) would have seen more climbers and the pressure would have been less during the second window,\" they said.\n\n\"Since almost none of these liaison officials stayed, it became very difficult for the limited officials to handle this huge number of climbers.\"\n\nLiaison officials not turning up has been an issue ailing Nepal's mountaineering industry for years now.\n\nMeera Acharya, head of the mountaineering section at Nepal's tourism ministry, said 80% of the appointed officials did go to the base camp this time.\n\n\"But I admit that not all of our liaison officials stayed there for long. We are aware of this issue and we are working to address it.\"\n\n\"We do hear of deaths of climbers on Mount Kilimanjaro as well, why is Everest being singled out here?\"\n\nMountaineering experts say there is also an increase in the number of inexperienced climbers joining the growing crowd on Everest.\n\nThis time round, many of them had just one Sherpa guide with their team, officials at the base camp said.\n\n\"When you have a dangerous situation like this, one Sherpa will not be able to help you much because he will have to take care of himself.\"\n\nNepal has denied overcrowding is the sole reason for the rise in deaths\n\nSome of the mountaineers who successfully returned after summiting said they had seen climbers struggling because they were running out of oxygen - they had to wait much longer.\n\n\"This new generation of climbers, eager to bag the top and brag back home, didn't know enough to understand the difference between climbing Everest and Makalu (Mount Makalu, the 5th highest peak southeast of Everest),\" says Alan Arnette, an experienced mountaineer and writer on mountaineering issues.\n\n\"They joined a random team of individuals with shared logistics for an independent climb. They didn't understand the word 'independent' and had no experience to evaluate the risks.\"\n\nVeteran climbers have long suggested Nepal's government should introduce certain criteria, including mandatory experience of having climbed peaks above 6,000m, for issuing Everest climbing permits.\n\nThe quest to get anyone willing to pay has been mainly down to intense competition between operators, particularly old and new ones.\n\nWith the entry of new expedition operators offering cheaper prices, mountaineers say even some of the established ones have been forced to cut their fees.\n\n\"As a result, you see agencies hiring inexperienced people as guides who cannot offer the right guidance to their clients when they have a situation like this,\" said Tshering Pande Bhote, vice president of Nepal National Mountain Guides Association.\n\n\"Unfortunately the competition is for volume and not for quality.\"\n\nExpedition operators admit there are problems but they argue they also need to increase the number of visitors for the growth of the industry.\n\n\"Next year, for example, is Visit Nepal Year (a mega-tourism campaign that aims to bring in two million tourists),\" says Dambar Parajuli, president of the Expedition Operators Association of Nepal.\n\n\"So we will need to have more visitors, including mountaineers, but clearly how we manage traffic jams like this remains our major challenge.\"", "The four climbers who turned back and raised the alarm about their missing colleagues on India's second highest mountain have since been assisting rescue efforts.\n\nThey had turned around early because of the harsh weather, and were the last ones in contact with the larger group of eight climbers who disappeared after an avalanche.\n\nRescue teams have spotted five bodies on the mountain. The Indian government says it is assuming all eight have been killed.", "This video can not be played\n\nTo play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.", "Sir Philip Green has won the backing of the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) for his plan to rescue Arcadia ahead of a crucial vote on Wednesday.\n\nThe owner of Topshop has struck a £385m deal to secure its pension schemes, including a £100m contribution from Lady Cristina Green, Sir Philip's wife and Arcadia's largest shareholder.\n\nThe PPF said it would now \"vote in support\" of Arcadia's restructure.\n\nBut the plan, which includes closing 50 stores, needs the backing of landlords.\n\nThey would have to agree to a rent cut on Arcadia's stores, which also include Burton, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins and Wallis.\n\nThe restructuring would be done through a company voluntary arrangement (CVA), an insolvency process that allows a business to reach an agreement with its creditors to pay off all or part of its debts.\n\nIn a deal with The Pensions Regulator, trustees of Arcadia's pension schemes will be granted security over £210m worth of assets by the company, up from a previous offer of £185m.\n\nLady Green will inject £100m into the schemes over three years.\n\nAnd Arcadia will make £75m worth of contributions to the company's pension schemes.\n\nOliver Morley, chief executive of the PPF, said: \"We are pleased that the company and shareholder have agreed a funding and security package for the scheme.

Negative publicity about Sir Philip Green has done nothing to help a business so closely associated with him personally.\n\nFor many in an age group increasingly conscious about the impact of their spending, the teenage crush on Topshop is over.\n\nMs Hardcastle said even if the rescue deal is passed, Arcadia will still have a lot more work to do.\n\n\"There is a lot of fat within the Arcadia group and it faces a lot of challenges.

There is a recognition that bold moves are needed if the ambition to halve the child obesity rate by 2030 is to be achieved.\n\nDame Sally has been asked to review the steps that are being taken to ensure no stone is left unturned.\n\nIn fact, she has already suggested that another measure floated by the IPPR - extending the tax on sugary drinks to other unhealthy foods - is a real option.\n\nAnd she is said to be open to the idea of plain packaging, which of course would be an even more radical step.\n\nAll cigarettes must be sold in plain green packaging with health warnings\n\nBut what is clear from the last decade is that the unlikely can soon become likely.\n\nDuring the early noughties, health campaigners and academic bodies were pushing and pushing for a ban on smoking in public places to be introduced.\n\nTime after time, the government poured cold water on the move.\n\nBut then things slowly began to change once Patricia Hewitt became health secretary, paving the way for even more radical measures.\n\nThe approach seems to be working - smoking rates have fallen by a third in just over 10 years.\n\nSome of the credit is clearly because of the growth of vaping as an alternative.\n\nBut tough public health tactics have no doubt played some part.\n\nEvidence from Australia - the first nation to introduce plain packaging for tobacco products - suggests a quarter of the subsequent reduction in smoking rates could be attributed to the move.\n\nAs the debate rages about obesity, expect to hear much more about the merits of radical action on sugar.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Cases of sexually transmitted infections are increasing in England.\n\nIn 2018, there were 447,694 new diagnoses of STIs, a 5% increase on the 422,147 in 2017.\n\nGonorrhoea increased the most - by 26% to 56,259 cases, the largest number since 1978.\n\nThere were 7,541 cases of syphilis - a 5% increase on 2017.\n\nHigh-risk groups include young people and men who have sex with men.\n\nThe most commonly diagnosed STIs were:\n\nThe number of gonorrhoea cases has been increasing for years among both men and women, despite repeated warnings from public health doctors about the risks of unprotected sex.\n\nSometimes referred to as \"the clap\", it is a bacterial infection passed between people through unprotected sex.\n\nIt is not spread by toilet seats or sharing baths or towels.\n\nSome people have no symptoms but can pass it on to their sexual partner.\n\nIt can be treated with antibiotics, although there have been recent reports of some cases of hard-to-treat \"super-gonorrhoea\" that are resistant to the usual choice of drugs.\n\nPeople with any of the symptoms of gonorrhoea - a yellow or green discharge from the vagina or penis, or pain urinating - should visit their GP or a sexual health clinic for a test.\n\nGonorrhoea can cause serious long-term health problems, including infertility in women.\n\nExperts are worried that many people are not getting tested for STIs when they should be.\n\nSome may be too embarrassed to seek help - but cuts to services are also a concern.\n\nDr Gwenda Hughes, from Public Health England, said: \"The rise in sexually transmitted infections is concerning.\n\n\"No matter what age you are, or what type of relationship you are in, it's important to look after your sexual health.

What's happened since the the #OscarsSoWhite controversy of 2015\n\nHollywood's complicated relationship with Native Americans goes back to the earliest movies set in the Wild West.\n\nAside from largely ignoring the presence of black cowboys - they largely stuck to negative racist stereotypes of Native people, often portraying them as savage.\n\nWes Studi's honour is 'long overdue' - Joy Porter, professor of Indigenous History at the University of Hull\n\nThis is yet another sign of Native Americans on the up. It comes after unprecedented numbers of Native Americans ran for public office in 2018, a record number of them female. The Native population in the States is significantly younger than the average American and numbers are rising fast - more than five million identify as American Indian or Alaskan Native and about 78% are living off reservation.\n\nOf course, this award is long overdue, since Wes Studi has been working extremely hard at an exceptional level for a very long time - he's 71. He went to Chilocco Indian School, fought in Vietnam and overcame great odds to succeed.\n\nStudi played Magua in The Last of the Mohicans\n\nIt's regrettable that to work in the mainstream he's had to be in some heavily stereotyped movies, such as Kevin Costner's Dances With Wolves (1990) and Last of the Mohicans (1992). Colonialism is full of ironies, and it's especially ironic in this case that the first Native Oscar goes to a man who has achieved success often playing an 'Indian chief', when in truth, in a great many Native communities, women often led and historically played key roles in diplomacy and war.\n\nThe bottom line though is that Wes Studi is superbly talented and a credit to his Cherokee people. He spoke Tsalagi, his people's language, when he introduced a montage at the 2018 Oscars. He's a veteran who fought for his country, as so many other Natives have in all America's great conflicts - it's refreshing to see America recognise one of the very best.\n\nIt's also suggested Hollywood often plundered real stories of minority cowboys as material for some of its films.\n\nDaniel Day Lewis (right) also starred in The Last of the Mohicans\n\nThe Lone Ranger TV series is believed to have been inspired by Bass Reeves, a black lawman who used disguises, had a Native American sidekick and went through his whole career without being shot.\n\nMore recently of course, the #OscarsSoWhite campaign, which began in 2015, highlighted the fact that there was not a single ethnic minority acting nominee for two years in a row.\n\nStudi (third-left) starred alongside Ben Stiller and Hank Azaria in the superhero spoof Mystery Men\n\nSince then, we've seen the likes of Black Panther, with a predominantly black cast, get a best picture nomination at the Oscars.\n\nLion, Get Out, Hidden Figures and Moonlight have also figured, although it's impossible to know for sure if this is down to the Academy's changes in 2016.\n\nStudi's other film credits include Geronimo: An American Legend and Avatar. More recently, he starred in TV hit Penny Dreadful.\n\nMeanwhile, filmmakers David Lynch and Lina Wertmuller will also receive honorary prizes at a Governors Awards ceremony in the US on 27 October.\n\nFollow us on Facebook, on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts, or on Instagram at bbcnewsents.

grandmother's home\n\nKeith Bennett is remembered as the \"lost\" victim of the Moors Murders - the third victim of Ian Brady and Myra Hindley and the only one of the five children they killed never to have been found.\n\nIt is the search for his body that propels Brady into the spotlight every time a clue is revealed that might bring to an end the 48-year mystery.\n\nAnd it is because Keith, who vanished aged 12, has not been found that he has become one of the most well known victims.\n\nHis family have campaigned tirelessly for answers and his mother Winnie Johnson has pleaded for the chance to offer her son the last thing she can give him - a decent burial.\n\nAdding fresh impetus to the search, in 2011 Mrs Johnson revealed she has cancer and appealed to Brady on a DVD as she feared she had months to live.\n\nLater that year Mrs Johnson said she would attend a public hearing which would decide if Brady could be returned to prison from hospital, but later decided it would be \"too traumatic\".\n\nIn the past she has described this fight as a nightmare, a life in limbo as she holds on to her hope that she will live long enough to see her son's body found.\n\nSpeaking in 2009 when Greater Manchester Police (GMP) announced they had called off the hunt for his body on Saddleworth Moor, she said: \"I want Keith found before anything happens to me because I want to give him a decent burial.\"\n\nAt the time she pleaded publicly for Brady to reveal the location where her son's body is hidden.\n\nWith the arrest of mental health advocate Jackie Powell, and the possibility of a letter finally revealing the location of Keith's body, Mrs Johnson may finally get the answer she has waited so long for.\n\nA search of Saddleworth Moor in 2008 tried to match up photos taken by Hindley and Brady with aerial shots of the moor in an attempt to find him.\n\nThe investigation into the boy's disappearance was classified as dormant by GMP with the force stating only a major scientific breakthrough or fresh evidence would see the hunt for his body restart.\n\nHis mother had to wait 23 years before her son's killers admitted his murder.\n\nThey were originally convicted of three murders but two more victims could not be found.\n\nIn 1987 Hindley and Brady confessed to killing Keith and Pauline Reade, aged 16.\n\nPolice managed to locate the remains of Pauline but, despite many weeks of digging, they were unable to find Keith's body.\n\nScientists believe that, due to the nature of the soil on the moors, it would be likely that some of the 12-year-old's remains would still be preserved.\n\nAnd it is this hope of finding her son that prompted Mrs Johnson to launch a fund and website in 2009 to arrange additional searches of the moors.\n\nThe website is now managed by Keith's brother Alan who has also appealed for the location of his brother's body to be revealed.\n\nAlan was eight when his brother was snatched by Brady and Hindley on 16 June 1964, after he left his home in Longsight to go to his grandmother's house nearby.\n\nOn the website Alan describes a happy home life with his brother Keith, with whom he shared a bedroom, his two sisters, another brother and a stepsister as well as his mother and stepfather.\n\nHe described Keith as having \"little time for anything but laughter and nature\" a boy who loved animals and summer flowers but who also excelled at swimming.\n\nIn March 2010 Winnie Johnson spoke at a memorial service held at Manchester Cathedral in lieu of a funeral.\n\nShe said she would

Halfon.\n\nMr Hinds said that in countries with a strong vocational training system, such as Germany, the focus was on high-quality skills valued by employers, rather than the volume of low-level training of questionable quality.\n\n\"But has the three million apprenticeships target been abandoned?\" asked Labour MP Ian Mearns.\n\nDamian Hinds was appearing before MPs on the education select committee\n\nMr Hinds argued that the argument had shifted and the current apprenticeship system reflected what employers wanted.\n\nAsked again by Mr Halfon whether or not the target was going to be achieved, Mr Hinds said: \"You're a mathematically adept person, and if you project the line out at the moment, in terms of sheer volume... no.\n\n\"If you look only at the number of people starting... then that is not going to be reached.\"\n\nThe House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee had previously cast doubt on the robustness of how the target had been set.\n\nIn a report last year it said it had been told that the three million figure had been a political decision, based on a number that would sound impressive in a manifesto.\n\nThe education secretary, facing a range of questions about his department's work, said that he backed the idea of a register for children who were not in school.\n\nHe said that many home educating families were doing \"amazing\" work, but he was concerned about those young people who were outside the school system but not really getting any access to education.\n\n\"There are a lot of children who are not in school and who in the data appear in the column that says 'home education', but there may be no education going on at all.\n\n\"Those are the children we should be worrying about,\" Mr Hinds told MPs.\n\nOn social mobility, the education secretary was asked about white working-class boys being the least likely group to go to university.\n\n\"We have been squeamish about talking about ethnicity when it's white children,\" replied Mr Hinds.\n\n\"The fact is, that among all the major ethnic groups, among disadvantaged children, free-school meal eligible white children are the lowest performing.\n\n\"So if you're serious about social mobility then that is a very large number of children to be concerned about,\" said Mr Hinds.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Overseas aid funding may need to be shifted away from humans to the natural environment to protect the planet and reduce poverty, Rory Stewart has said.\n\nThe international development secretary told MPs hard decisions would be needed if the UK was serious about mitigating the impact of climate change globally.\n\n\"We may have to target our money directly on the trees,\" he said. \"We may actually have to plant trees.\"\n\nHe also warned a no-deal Brexit could, at worse, cut aid funds by up to £400m.\n\nDiscussing his department's priorities in front of the Commons international development committee, Mr Stewart warned MPs it might be the last time he spoke to them.\n\nMr Stewart, who caused a stir during his recent Conservative leadership bid, has said he will not serve under Boris Johnson if he becomes Tory leader due to disagreements over Brexit.\n\nWith Mr Johnson considered favourite to succeed Mrs May, Mr Stewart said he may only have a month left in the role.\n\nIn that time, he said his main goal was to try and double the amount of money his department spent on climate and environment programmes.\n\nIn the longer-term, he said the department may need to reconsider how it allocates its resources - the bulk of which are spent on bilateral programmes in developing countries.\n\nDealing with the climate emergency was key to tackling global poverty, he said, because without it, the number of people below the poverty line would increase by up to 100 million.\n\n\"It has been very tempting for this department, in the short term, to think it can't spend money on climate change because there are also these poor people out there,\" he said.\n\n\"But the harsh reality is that if we don't start tackling climate and the environment, we are going to start going backwards rather than forwards.\"\n\nUsing a Venn diagram to illustrate his argument, he said the overlapping, shared area between environmental and poverty initiatives was \"not always a very good place to be\".\n\nAs an example, he said while it might seem sensible to provide rural communities dependent on forestry with alternative sources of employment nearby, such diversification may end up having a marginal economic benefit while taking people away from the land.\n\nIn contrast, tree planting could provide sustainable income sources for communities while benefiting eco-systems, increasing carbon capture and providing defence against flooding.\n\n\"That is quite a shift in the way we think. Because we have tended to assume that best way to deal with humans is to target your money on humans.\n\n\"But sometimes, in the long run, the best way is to target your money on non-humans.\"\n\nDuring his leadership campaign, Mr Stewart - who worked as a diplomat in Iraq and Afghanistan before entering politics - claimed to have planted 5,000 trees himself.\n\nWith successive governments committing to spend 0.7% of UK national income on aid spending, the aid department has seen a huge increase in its budgets in the past decade.\n\nMr Stewart said there would be \"problems\" if, for whatever reason, the economy grew at a slower rate than was currently projected.\n\nIn the worst-case scenario of a no-deal Brexit, he said there could be a £300-£400m annual shortfall in the Overseas Development Assistance budget.\n\nAsked how the gaps would be plugged, he suggested the UK could look to reduce the amount of money it gave to multilateral partners such as the World Bank.\n\nThis, he suggested, would be an \"easier conversation\" for the UK to have than cutting funding for programmes in individual countries.\n\nMr Stewart has also been setting out the UK's progress towards hitting its Sustainable Development Goals, a series of international targets for eradicating poverty and hunger, reducing inequality and securing gender equality.\n\nHe said the UK had made \"significant strides\" by having a faster rate of decarbonisation than any other advanced economy but there was \"more to do\".", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. \"Reem\" and \"Sara\" say they feel lost and invisible and can “do nothing without papers”\n\nAlmost 1,400 child asylum seekers have waited for more than five years for an initial decision about their right to remain in the UK, the BBC has found.\n\nHome Office figures obtained by the BBC show delays have almost tripled since January 2014, when 484 children had been waiting for more than five years.\n\nIn May the government said it was abandoning a six-month wait target for most asylum applications.\n\nThe Home Office said cases involving children \"can take longer to resolve\".\n\nIn 2014, the Home Office introduced a target to process 98% of straightforward asylum claims within six months.\n\nIn a freedom of information request the BBC asked for the number of children under the age of 18 at the time of their asylum application who had been waiting for an initial decision on their asylum claim for more than six months, more than 12 months, and for more than five years in both 2014 and 2018.\n\nIn September 2018, there were 6,214 dependant children who had been waiting more than six months for an initial decision - almost a 47% rise in four years compared with January 2014.\n\nThe number of children waiting more than five years increased at an even steeper rate - rising from 484 in 2014 to 1,396 in September 2018.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

They will only be allowed to take up a job which is included on the list of shortage occupations.\n\nThese occupations include engineering jobs, medical roles, and IT specialists. Those lacking the relevant qualifications and experience for these specific jobs will be denied permission to work.\n\nA Home Office spokesman said asylum cases involving children are often \"highly complex, with stringent safeguards regarding child welfare, and can take longer to resolve.\n\n\"We are currently working closely with other agencies on a new service standard for decision-making in these cases.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Worthing council is considering a plan for BoKlok to build up to 162 homes\n\nCouncillor Kevin Jenkins, Worthing Council's executive member for regeneration, said: \"In this current market, it's extremely tough for local people who are in full-time work to get on the housing market. This proposal could change that, giving these hard-working individuals a genuine chance to buy their own home without having to move out of the town.\"\n\nInstead of selling land to the developer, the council would receive the homes, lease the land for 125 years and receive ground rent, which should be about 4% on the value of the land.\n\nThe council says this proposal produces 45 homes for its use, rather than 13 if a conventional model has been used.\n\nBuilding could start next September and the \"first homes dispatched, delivered and erected\" in January 2021.\n\nA BoKlok spokesperson said it was a \"sustainable, low-cost housing concept\".

5.4% criminal damage and arson; 6% theft.\n\n\"Overall police detection rates nationally are low, woefully low I would say in some instances, and the courts are emptying, not filling,\" the Commissioner said.\n\n\"It's not good, and I'm not proud of it,\" she added.\n\nThe Home Office statistics suggest there is a range of reasons why fewer prosecutions are being brought.\n\nIn 45.7% of offences, no suspect was identified. Over one-in-five of cases failed to proceed because the victim did not co-operate, and in almost one in 10, there were other problems with evidence.\n\nMs Dick claimed if police were able to harness data more effectively, a \"very, very large proportion\" of crimes could be solved, pointing to cases of murder and manslaughter to illustrate how it could be achieved.\n\nThe homicide detection rate has historically been around 90%, although BBC analysis shows it's been on the decline in London since 2016.\n\nTo raise clear-up levels to those of homicide cases, the Commissioner said it would need a \"magic wand\" of extra resources, better use of technology and greater expertise.", "The date of 31 October is significant because if Boris Johnson becomes prime minister, and he can't get his hugely ambitious deal signed off by the EU, then in four months' time he says we will be leaving come what may, do or die, without any agreement.\n\nBoris Johnson has pretty much locked the door and thrown away the key on that.

Normally, this mid-year meeting is concerned with technical questions but this time the issue of the IPCC has re-emerged as a huge fault line between nations.\n\nThe Saudis are keen to highlight what are termed \"knowledge gaps\" in the IPCC report, that they believe hamper its ability to inform decision making at national or international level.\n\n\"We know that there are some hardliners that would try to downplay the seriousness and the actions that are required, that is their point of view,\" said Carlos Fuller from Belize, the lead negotiator for the Alliance of Small Island States.\n\n\"They recognise that they need to undertake major changes that they are not happy about.\"\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Campaigners are also worried.\n\n\"The EU are very aware of the Secretary General's summit, they are aware they are calling for a revision of targets, it would be embarrassing for the EU to go with what they just have now,\" said Ulriikka Aarnio, from the Climate Action Network.\n\n\"Somebody said they would be going from leader to loser if that was the case.\"\n\nDo you have a question you want to ask about the planet?

which in turn are vulnerable to automation, it said.\n\nOn average, each additional robot installed in those lower-skilled regions could lead to nearly twice as many job losses as those in higher-skilled regions of the same country, exacerbating economic inequality and political polarisation, which is growing already, Oxford Economics said.\n\nWe've seen plenty of predictions that robots are about to put everyone, from factory workers to journalists, out of a job, with white collar work suddenly vulnerable to automation.\n\nBut this report presents a more nuanced view, stressing that the productivity benefits from automation should boost growth, meaning as many jobs are created as lost.\n\nAnd while it sees the robots moving out of the factories and into service industries, it's still in manufacturing that the report says they will have the most impact, particularly in China where armies of workers could be replaced by machines.\n\nWhere service jobs are under threat, they are in industries such as transport or construction rather than the law or journalism and it's lower-skilled people who may have moved from manufacturing who are vulnerable.\n\nThe challenge for governments is how to encourage the innovation that the robots promise while making sure they don't cause new divides in society.\n\nOxford Economics also found the more repetitive the job, the greater the risk of its being wiped out.\n\nJobs which require more compassion, creativity or social intelligence are more likely to continue to be carried out by humans \"for decades to come\", it said.\n\nThe firm called on policymakers, business leaders, workers, and teachers to think about how to develop workforce skills to adapt to growing automation.\n\nAbout 1.7 million manufacturing jobs have already been lost to robots since 2000, including 400,000 in Europe, 260,000 in the US, and 550,000 in China, it said.\n\nThe firm predicted that China will have the most manufacturing automation, with as many as 14 million industrial robots by 2030.\n\nIn the UK, several hundreds of thousands of jobs could be replaced, it added.\n\nHowever, if there was a 30% rise in robot installations worldwide, that would create $5 trillion in additional global GDP, it estimated.\n\nAt a global level, jobs will be created at the rate they are destroyed, it said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. \"Humans will always be needed\" -

when people receive unsolicited sexual images on their phone - and \"deepfake\" pornography, which is the practice of superimposing an individual's face on to pornographic photos or videos without consent.\n\nIt comes after a specific \"upskirting\" law was introduced for England and Wales after campaigners complained victims were left without access to justice through existing legislation.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMs Mortimer, manager of the Revenge Porn helpline, said she would \"strongly encourage a move to make the disclosure of private images a sexual offence, guaranteeing victims anonymity and giving the necessary reassurance to come forward and make formal complaints\".\n\n\"We would also like to see threats to share intimate images made a specific offence, the inclusion of manipulated images and images in underwear in the definition and the removal of the intention in order to cause distress,\" she added.\n\nAbout 4,400 people have contacted the helpline seeking support and advice since it opened in 2015.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

European capitals are sweltering under a heatwave with government ministers counting the days until they hit the beach or find some cool mountain air.\n\nThe day the Brexit extension runs out - 31 October - seems an eternity away in political terms.\n\nAlso, just as Messrs Johnson and Hunt do not accept the EU's word when it says the Withdrawal Agreement cannot and will not be re-negotiated, EU leaders do not take them at their word when they threaten no deal by the end of October.\n\nThere are two main EU theories I'm hearing:\n\nJeremy Hunt has already indicated he might delay Brexit if talks were getting somewhere. Would Boris Johnson throw away the chance of successful new negotiations just to push through an October no deal? Unlikely, thinks the EU.\n\nWhich is why many European politicians believe - whatever Mr Johnson and Mr Hunt say now - that the new UK prime minister is most likely to end up requesting a second Brexit extension come the autumn, thereby pushing a no-deal Brexit threat that much further down the road.\n\nAs for the other Brexit claims Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt are making, EU leaders view Mr Johnson as the \"have your cake and eat it\" candidate. And they don't approve of his pitch.\n\nAhead of the EU referendum, Boris Johnson became infamous in Brussels for claiming that the UK could keep the benefits of EU membership even after leaving the single market.\n\nNow he's turning his cake knife to the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement - proposing that some aspects, such as citizens' rights, are respected while others, like the Irish border backstop, are thrown out.\n\n\"Impossible. It's a package deal,\" exasperated diplomats tell me in Brussels, as they hastily resurrect the original EU negotiations mantra that \"nothing is agreed until everything is agreed\".\n\nMeaning: \"We'll allow no cherry picking, Mr Johnson.\"\n\nThe European Commission also insists that, contrary to Boris Johnson's claims, there will be no transition or implementation period - no zero tariffs bilateral trade between the EU and UK - in the case of a no-deal Brexit. The EU has \"zero incentive\" to agree to such an arrangement, say Eurocrats.\n\nAnd in case you thought they were joking, the EU trade commissioner's blanket rejection of Mr Johnson's assertion was re-tweeted by the EU's chief and deputy-chief Brexit negotiators:\n\nSorry, we're having trouble displaying this content.

The largest down south, Lake Vostok, is 250km long. The biggest subglacial lake in Greenland is just 6km long.\n\nExtensive areas of water can pool under a kilometres-thick ice sheet for a number of reasons.\n\nPressure from above and geothermal heat from below can maintain a liquid; surface meltwaters will also drain to the bed and collect in hollows.\n\nResearchers are interested in finding such lakes because they say something about the hydrology (water network) underlying an ice sheet and the way it moves.\n\nWater acts as a lubricant, and as the world warms, modelling how quickly ice might slide towards the ocean will inform projections of future sea-level rise.\n\nGreenland's ice would increase global ocean height by 7m if it were all to melt.\n\nNasa's IceBridge Operation has been mapping the Greenland Ice Sheet\n\nJade Bowling from Lancaster University manually inspected 570,000km of ice-penetrating radar data gathered by Nasa's IceBridge programme in Greenland.\n\nThe US space agency has regularly flown an instrumented plane back and forth across the ice sheet to map its internal layers and the shape of the bedrock. Liquid water has a telltale backscatter pattern in radar data.\n\nThe PhD student identified 54 candidate lakes in this search. \"In contrast to Antarctic subglacial lakes, which are typically clustered around (interior) ice divides, these new Greenlandic lakes are mostly found towards the margin of the ice sheet, under relatively slow-moving ice and are mostly stable,\" she told BBC News.\n\n\"They are also much smaller than those in Antarctica (1.4km average length compared to 11km).\"\n\nAs well as the 54 radar lakes, a further two candidates were found by looking for sharp height changes in the new ArcticDEM dataset.\n\nThis elevation model was built from very high-resolution satellite photos and Ms Bowling sees a couple of places where the ice surface has slumped, presumably because an underlying lake has drained away.\n\n\"These 'active' lakes that fill and drain, making the ice lift up and down, seem to be rare,\" said co-author Dr Stephen Livingstone. \"But we speculate that the signal of active subglacial lakes near the margin of the ice sheet may actually be being lost because this is where a lot of surface meltwater gets down to the bed.\n\n\"This water may be flushing out the lakes on a seasonal basis by making very efficient channels. The margins may just be a very dynamic area.\"\n\nThe new study brings the total number of identified lakes to 60\n\nIn Antarctica, a number of lakes, including Vostok, have been the target for scientific drilling.\n\nThe thought is that some of the oldest, most stable lakes will hold ancient organisms that have been trapped in place from when the ice sheet formed.\n\nThe chemistry of the water and the nature of the sediments should also provide valuable insights on past environmental conditions.\n\nProf Martin Siegert at Imperial College London led an effort to try to drill into Antarctica's subglacial Lake Ellsworth.\n\nHe commented to BBC News: \"Since the ice sheet is likely to have changed massively in the last ice age cycle, these Greenlandic lakes are unlikely to be ‘very’ old. Hence, the types of questions you might ask from Lake Vostok/Ellsworth will be different to what you might accomplish by drilling into a Greenland lake.\n\n\"As the authors say, these are just candidate lakes and more geophysics is needed to determine whether they would be interesting to drill (check for water depth, topographic setting, basal sediment).\n\n\"So, an analysis on which lakes look best from an exploration perspective seems a logical next step. Then, if the science return looks strong enough, an exploration mission could well follow.\"\n\nMs Bowling and co-workers have published their analysis of Greenland's subglacial lakes in the journal Nature Communications.\n\nOne or two of the lakes could become a target for drilling", "People found guilty of the worst cases of animal cruelty will face up to five years in prison under a new law proposed for England and Wales.\n\nA Parliamentary bill from Environment Secretary Michael Gove raises the maximum term from six months.\n\nThe harshest sentences would be for dog fighting, abuse of puppies and kittens, or gross neglect of farm animals.\n\nThe bill complements the so-called Finn's Law, which provides more protection for service dogs and horses.\n\nCourts have indicated they wanted to hand down longer sentences in recent years but they were not available.\n\nThe new Animal Welfare (Sentencing) Bill has backing from welfare groups, and more than 70% of people supported plans for tougher prison sentences in a public consultation last year.\n\nMr Gove said: \"There is no place in this country for animal cruelty. That is why I want to make sure that those who abuse animals are met with the full force of the law.\"\n\nHe said the new law would bring in some of the toughest punishments in Europe for animal cruelty.\n\nMinisters say the bill builds on other government action to protect animals, including plans to ban third-party puppy and kitten sales and a ban on wild animals in circuses.\n\nClaire Horton, chief executive of Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, said the bill was a \"landmark achievement\" and would make a \"profound difference\".\n\n\"We, and many other rescue centres, see shocking cases of cruelty and neglect come through our gates and there are many more animals that are dumped and don't even make it off the streets,\" she said.\n\nAppearing on ITV's Britain's Got Talent, PC Wardell described Finn as a \"lovely, lovely lad\"\n\nFinn's Law, which passed into legislation earlier this month through the Animal Welfare (Service Animals) Act, also carries a maximum sentence of five years imprisonment.\n\nThe law is named after German shepherd Finn who was stabbed and seriously hurt as he protected his handler - PC Dave Wardell - from an attack in 2016.\n\nFollowing the attack, PC Wardell began campaigning for a law change to make it harder for people who harm service animals to claim they were acting in self-defence.\n\nTo raise awareness, the pair took part in Britain's Got Talent, reaching the final of the ITV variety show with a magic act that moved the judges to tears.\n\n\"This law is the only reason I put myself on stage in front of nine million people,\" said PC Wardell, who is still a serving officer.", "A kimono is a traditional Japanese garment that goes back centuries\n\nKim Kardashian West has angered people in Japan with the launch of her new shapewear brand, Kimono Intimates.\n\nThe reality star said the label, launched on Tuesday, is inclusive and \"celebrates and enhances the shape and curves of women\".\n\nBut Japanese people on social media have said the trademarked brand disrespects traditional clothing.\n\nThe kimono, a loose long-sleeved robe typically tied with a sash, dates back to 15th Century Japan.\n\nConsidered the national dress of Japan, it is now mostly worn during special occasions.\n\n\"We wear kimonos to celebrate health, growth of children, engagements, marriages, graduations, at funerals.

She has also filed trademarks for \"Kimono Body\", \"Kimono Intimates\" and \"Kimono World\".\n\nThe underwear, designed to create smooth lines under clothing, is available in several different colours.\n\nKardashian West said on Twitter that there were \"so many times I couldn't find a shapeware color that blended with my skin tone so we needed a solution for all of this\".\n\nKimono - the literal translation is 'something to wear' - are usually meticulously crafted by experts. They are mostly worn on special occasions, but for some they are worn whenever they feel like dressing up a bit and making an extra effort.\n\nFor many Japanese people, wearing a kimono is a way of maintaining a connection with history, culture and one's sense of being Japanese as lifestyles and wardrobes become more Westernised.\n\nSome see Kim Kardashian West's product as stripping the Japanese meaning from the word, and there are fears this could have dire consequences on a struggling traditional industry.\n\nIf the star was marketing a line of loose wrap-around gowns, sometimes called kimonos in the West, then the reaction may have been one of mild resignation since it bears some similarity with its namesake.\n\nBut a Japanese kimono is a very specific thing - not lingerie - and trying to trademark the ubiquitous word has been seen by many as rather alarming. People have been posting photos of actual Japanese kimonos, stressing: \"No, kimono is not underwear.\"\n\nMany people have taken issue with the fact she is trying to trademark a word of huge significance in Japanese culture. Others were annoyed that the traditional garment now shares the same name as an intimate wear brand.\n\nSome have been tweeting with the hashtag #KimOhNo.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

It's also available in nine shades.\n\nBut one kimono expert said it was ironic that it identifies itself with a garment that is the opposite of shape wear.\n\nA kimono is meant to cover up women so they are not exposed\n\n\"The [aesthetic] of the kimono is graceful, elegant and gentle. It is not overtly revealing or figure-hugging. It wraps the wearer so they are not exposed,\" Prof Sheila Cliffe from the Jumonji Women's University told the BBC.\n\n\"If I made a bra and called it a sari... some people would be very annoyed.

Simon King explains the causes behind the heatwave\n\nA heatwave affecting much of Europe is expected to intensify further with countries - including France, Spain and Switzerland - expecting temperatures above 40C (104F) later on Thursday.\n\nOn Wednesday, Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic recorded their highest temperatures for June.\n\nMeteorologists say hot air drawn in from northern Africa is responsible.\n\nThe heat is expected to rise further in many countries over the next three days, meteorologists warn.\n\nBy early afternoon, temperatures had reached 37C in Turin in Italy, 39C in the Spanish city of Zaragoza, and 39C in Avignon in southern France.\n\nIn Spain, 11 provinces in the east and centre of the country are set to experience temperatures above 40C.\n\nIn parts of the north-east, they may reach 45C on Friday.\n\nHundreds of firefighters are battling wildfires in Catalonia, described by the regional government as some of the worst in 20 years.\n\nAt least 4,000 hectares (10,000 acres) are affected, but officials said that in the intense heat the area could increase to 20,000ha.\n\nThirty people have been evacuated and five roads have been closed.\n\nTemperatures are expected to top 40C in Italy too, particularly in central and northern regions. Several cities, including Rome, have issued the highest heat warnings.\n\nMilan also expects the mercury to top 40C on Thursday\n\nOn Thursday morning the body of a 72-year-old homeless Romanian man was found near Milan's central train station. Officials say the heat may have been a factor in his death.\n\nPhilip Trackfield, a British tourist in Rome, told the BBC: \"Last night at the Spanish steps it was 41C. It's exhausting when you're trying to do all the sights.\"\n\nMeanwhile the whole of France - where a heatwave in 2003 was blamed for 15,000 deaths - is now on orange alert, the second-highest warning level.\n\nIn Paris, fountains and sprinklers connected to hydrants have been set up. Some schools have delayed important exams and even closed.\n\nIn Toulouse, where temperatures are expected to reach 41C on Thursday, charities have been handing out water to homeless people.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

The fight is real, exhausting and mind-blowing,\" she told nodding supporters.\n\nLawyers say Dakota's struggle for support is typical of many families\n\nFamilies of children with extra learning needs have long had to fight for support, but campaigners say the situation has become a national crisis.\n\nAusterity budgets and changes to the system, in 2014, have meant the huge increase in demand for support has not been matched with an associated rise in funding.\n\nIn the past financial year, eight out of 10 councils in England spent more than their allocated budgets for high needs, a BBC News investigation found.\n\nAnd school leaders have complained their school budgets are being used to plug gaps in special needs funding.\n\nPart of the issue has been the fact that, in 2014, councils were given the additional responsibility for young people with special needs up to the age of 25. Previously the responsibility stopped at 18.\n\nThis, and other pressures, have meant the number of pupils with special needs grew by more than half between 2014 and 2018.\n\nMany parents say they feel ignored\n\nSolicitor Anne-Marie Irwin, of public law specialists Irwin Mitchell, said this was the first time the government had been taken to court over its special needs funding decisions, although two local authorities have faced High Court challenges.\n\nSpecifically, the court is being asked to rule whether last autumn's Budget was set lawfully.\n\nThree families with children with special needs, from Birmingham, North Yorkshire and East Sussex, are fighting the case. They are all being supported by campaign network Send Action.\n\nTheir lawyers say their stories are typical of the many families around the country who are struggling to access the services their children need to support their education and learning.\n\nAnother teenager, whose case will be heard by a High Court judge, is Benedict McFiggan, 14, from Scarborough, North Yorkshire, who has struggled to access support for mental health issues - post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression and chronic insomnia.\n\nNorth Yorkshire County Council initially refused to give him an official assessment of his needs, known as an education and health care assessment.\n\nHe has not been in mainstream school for nearly two years and now attends a pupil referral unit, but for fewer than three hours a day.\n\nParents have travelled far to make their point\n\nHis mother, Kirsty, 40, said so many councils were struggling and she was shocked at the lack of government action.\n\n\"We feel this issue is being caused at the top and are determined to ensure the government is held to account on sorting it out.\"\n\nFive years ago parents whose children had disabilities or special needs were hopeful.\n\nNow they're protesting outside the High Court as their case against the government begins.

His mother neglected him and he was raised by foster parents in the Gorbals, Glasgow's toughest slum.\n\nAfter a spree of petty crime as a teenager the courts sent him to Manchester to live with his mother and her new husband, Patrick Brady.\n\nBrady met Myra Hindley at a company where they both worked\n\nHe assumed his stepfather's name, continued his criminal activities and developed into a fully-fledged teenage alcoholic.\n\nBy now he had acquired new interests, building up a library of books on Nazi Germany, sadism and sexual perversion.\n\nHe first met Hindley when she worked as a secretary at the company where they were both employed.\n\nFor Hindley it was love at first sight. Brady impressed her by reading Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf in the original German.\n\nAs their relationship developed, they began taking obscene photographs of each other before turning their attention to kidnapping, child molestation and murder.\n\nBetween July 1963 and December 1964, 16-year-old Pauline Reade, 12-year-old John Kilbride and Keith Bennett, also 12, were reported missing, all in the Manchester area.\n\nJohn Kilbride was the second child to disappear\n\nAuthorities were baffled by what they referred to as the \"unrelated\" cases, and were left without a single piece of solid evidence.\n\nIn the meantime, Brady and Hindley were intent on a campaign to corrupt Hindley's brother-in-law, David Smith, and recruit him into their circle.\n\nA petty criminal with convictions of his own, Smith was amused when the conversation turned to murder; he questioned Brady's ability to follow it through.\n\nOn 6 October 1965, Brady offered a practical demonstration with Edward Evans, 17, striking him 14 times with a hatchet before strangling him.\n\nHorrified, Smith phoned the police the next morning, directing them to Brady's address.\n\nThe officers caught Brady and Hindley at home, retrieving a fresh corpse from the bedroom, along with the bloody hatchet and Brady's library of volumes on perversion and sadism.\n\nA 12-year-old neighbour recalled several trips she had made with the couple to Saddleworth Moor, and the police launched a search which uncovered the body of Leslie Ann Downey on 16 October.\n\nThe body of Keith Bennett has never been found, despite appeals to Brady for help\n\nFour days later, another search of Brady's flat turned up two left luggage tickets for Manchester Central Station, leading police to a pair of hidden suitcases.\n\nInside, they found nude photographs of the girl, along with tape recordings of her final tortured moments, pleading for her life as she was sexually abused.\n\nA series of seemingly innocent snapshots depicted portions of Saddleworth Moor, and detectives paid another visit to the desolate region on 21 October, unearthing the body of John Kilbride.\n\nPolice announced they were opening their files on eight people who had disappeared over the previous four years, but no new charges had been added by the time the couple went on trial.\n\nJurors were stunned by the Downey tape, and by Brady's bland description of the recording as \"unusual\".\n\nOn 6 May 1966, both defendants were convicted of killing Edward Evans and Leslie Ann Downey. Brady was also found guilty of murdering John Kilbride, while Hindley was convicted as an accessory after the fact.\n\nBrady was sentenced to concurrent life terms on each count, while Hindley received two life terms plus seven years in the Kilbride case.\n\nNineteen years later, in November 1985, Brady was transferred from prison to a maximum-security hospital after being diagnosed a psychopath.\n\nThere, in an interview with newspaper reporters, he confessed to the murders of Pauline Reade and Keith Bennett.\n\nAnother year passed before searchers returned to the moors, with Hindley joining them for an abortive outing in December 1986, and Brady doing the same in 1987.\n\nThe remains of Pauline Reade were uncovered on 30 June 1987, nearly a quarter of a century after her disappearance.\n\nIt took pathologists a month to decide she had been sexually assaulted, her throat slashed from behind.\n\nIn August 1987, Brady posted a letter to the BBC containing sketchy information on five \"new\" murders he said he had committed.\n\nLesley Anne Downey was the first victim whose body was found\n\nFive months later the Director of Public Prosecutions announced that, in the public interest, there would be no prosecution of the murders of Pauline Reade and Keith Bennett.\n\nBrady accepted from the start that he would never be released, unlike Hindley who, in trying to secure parole, claimed Brady had forced her into killing by abusing and torturing her into submission.\n\nBut Brady reacted to her allegation by claiming: \"For 20 years I continued to ratify the cover I had given her at the trial whilst, in contrast, she systematically began to fabricate upon it to my detriment.\"\n\nMyra Hindley died in 2002. Ian Brady, who had been on hunger strike, and force-fed daily, declared he would rather die quickly than rot slowly in jail.\n\nHis attempts to force the authorities to let him starve himself to death failed. In March 2000 a judge described his hunger strike as part of his \"obsessive need to exercise control\".\n\nA year later Brady's book - The Gates of Janus, an analysis of serial murders - was released by an American firm, Feral House. The decision to publish caused an outcry in the British press and resulted in hate mail being sent to the publisher, Adam Parfrey.\n\nIn 2012 Brady asked to be returned to prison so he could starve himself to death without the force-feeding permitted in mental institutions.\n\nBrady was arrested after the killing of Edward Evans\n\nA tribunal ruled it was appropriate that he continue to be treated in a mental hospital.\n\nIn the same year Keith Bennett's mother, Winnie Johnson, who had fought for four decades to have the two killers prosecuted for her son's murder, died of cancer.

Prince William said in 2019 that he would \"fully support\" his children if they were gay\n\nPrince William has said he would \"fully support\" his children if they were gay, but admitted he would \"worry\" about the added pressures they would face.\n\nIt was something he had thought about since becoming a parent, he said.\n\n\"I wish we lived in a world where it's really normal and cool, but particularly for my family, and the position that we are in, that's the bit I am nervous about,\" he said.\n\nThe duke was speaking to young people at a LGBT youth charity in London.\n\nThe Albert Kennedy Trust (AKT) supports LGBT young people who are at risk of homelessness.\n\nThe duke said he backed \"whatever decisions\" his children made, but added: \"It does worry me from a parent point of view.\n\n\"How many barriers you know, hateful words, persecution, all that and discrimination that might come, that's the bit that really troubles me.\n\n\"But that's for all of us to try and help correct and make sure we can put that to the past and not come back to that sort of stuff.\"\n\nThis is a huge moment for LGBT people around the world.\n\nFor a member of the British Royal Family to give such an endorsement to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights, and their fight for equality, is a big deal, especially in a time when the visibility of LGBT people is being continually questioned.\n\nHowever, with the Duke of Cambridge being a figurehead for the Royal Family as well as the Commonwealth, it is also worth remembering that homosexual activity is still a criminal offence in 35 of the 53 Commonwealth nations - and it is only legal in 18.\n\nMany will now be wondering whether Prince William's words could have a positive impact on these places, where people are still fighting for their lives because of who they love.\n\nPrince William and the Duchess of Cambridge have three children - five-year-old Prince George, Princess Charlotte, four, and one-year-old Prince Louis.\n\nThe duke said this was not the first time he has been asked this hypothetical question about his children.\n\nThe Queen's cousin, Lord Ivar Mountbatten, and his partner James Coyle were the first royal same-sex couple to get married last year.\n\nThe duke said parents often ask his views on the issue and that because of this, he and the Duchess of Cambridge have \"been doing a lot of talking\" to make sure their children are \"prepared\".\n\nHe also expressed his shock at a recent attack on Melania Geymonat and her partner Chris on a London bus, saying: \"I was really appalled\".\n\nTim Sigsworth, chief executive of AKT, said the duke's comments would make a \"massive difference\" and sent \"a message that we need to support, and we need to empower LGBT people\".\n\nHe said: \"I was personally rejected by my mum, and the idea that the future monarch is saying they would support their children if they came out as LGBT is a message to the whole of society really, a message that we need to support and we need to empower LGBT people.\"\n\nDuring a conversation with AKT's founder, Cath Hall, William also spoke of his concerns about the pressures on LGBT young people coming out to their family and friends.\n\n\"It's a real pressure to live under,\" he said.\n\n\"I've been looking into issues around suicide and I imagine that the figures in the LGBT community are high, because of all the barriers and stigma around acceptance.\"\n\nMany people have praised the prince for the comments.\n\nCharity Mermaids UK, which supports gender diverse and transgender children, said it \"loves that Prince William supports LGBTQ children\".\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

Szewczuk was jailed for just over four years.\n\nThe defendants, who appeared by video link from HMP Belmarsh, in south-east London, did not react.\n\nThe court heard the teenagers used pseudonyms to run personal accounts on the Gab social media site, as well as sharing control of the Sonnenkrieg Division's own page, on which they posted self-designed propaganda that encouraged terrorist attacks.\n\nAmong other things, the imagery suggested the Duke of Sussex was a \"race traitor\" who should be shot, glorified the Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik, and said white women who date non-white men should be hanged.\n\nThe material was \"uniformly violent and threatening\" and \"the nature of the violence includes rape and execution\", Judge Rebecca Poulet QC said.\n\nSuggested targets included non-white and Jewish people, and the effect was to overtly encourage lone acts of violence against members of the public, the judge added.\n\nShe said the men had promoted both Sonnenkrieg and the American Atomwaffen Division, which were extreme right-wing groups inspired by a book called Siege written by the veteran American neo-Nazi James Mason in the 1980s.\n\nTheir ideology is violently racist and anti-Semitic neo-Nazism and its tactics involve political violence through acting alone or small-cell terrorism, she added.\n\nShe condemned an \"additional feature\" of the ideology by referencing a blog run by Szewczuk that encouraged the rape of female adults and babies.\n\nSonnenkrieg's activities were exposed last year by a BBC investigation.\n\nProsecutor Naomi Parsons, opening the case earlier in the hearing, told the court: \"This isn't a keyboard organisation. It is intent on action.\"\n\nShe read from the group's mission statement, which declared: \"Will you rise up and take the chance or will you sit back and do nothing… Hail victory, and Heil Hitler!\"\n\nIn April, Szewczuk admitted two counts of encouraging terrorism and five of possessing documents useful to a terrorist.\n\nDunn-Koczorowski pleaded guilty while still a youth in December to two counts of encouraging terrorism.\n\nThe court heard Sonnenkrieg was influenced by the US-based group Atomwaffen Division, which is linked to five murders, and Mason, whose writings \"may well represent the most violent, revolutionary and potentially terroristic expression of right-wing extremism current today\".\n\nSonnenkrieg promoted the idea that people should completely \"drop out\" of society and engage in a \"total attack\" on the system, Ms Parsons told the court.\n\nShe said Szewczuk also maintained an \"extremely violent and aggressively misogynistic\" blog that encouraged the rape, torture and murder of women and babies.\n\n\"You must become a machine of terror,\" Szewczuk had advised his readers.\n\nDunn-Koczorowski joined the now banned terrorist group National Action as a schoolboy\n\nIn online comments, Dunn-Koczorowski suggested that decapitating babies would be acceptable to stop them becoming \"leftist politicians\" and proclaimed \"terror is the best political weapon for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death\".\n\nThe pair were arrested the morning after the BBC investigation was broadcast in December.\n\nDetectives found Szewczuk - then a computer science student at the University of Portsmouth - in possession of bomb-making instructions, documents describing how to conduct Islamist terror attacks and a \"white resistance\" manual.\n\nA man from Bath arrested on the same day has been released under investigation and a file of evidence sent to the Crown Prosecution Service for a charging decision.\n\nIt is understood that Dunn-Koczorowski joined the now banned terrorist group National Action as a schoolboy and later played a role in two successor organisations before taking up with Sonnenkrieg.\n\nThe court heard he had breached his bail conditions in May by using social media to post about his extremist ideology.\n\nThe judge said he was in no sense showing \"remorse\", which was \"very concerning\".\n\n\"You still hold deeply entrenched views in support of this extreme right wing ideology,\" she told the teenager.\n\nDet Chief Supt Martin Snowden, head of counter terrorism policing in the north-east of England, said Dunn-Koczorowski and Szewczuk clearly saw themselves as superior to the majority of society and they felt it was their duty to express their beliefs, in turn teaching others.\n\nHe told the BBC it \"only takes one individual to be encouraged or be inspired by that propaganda to take that further step\" and this \"represents a significant risk\".\n\nSonnenkrieg Division, which police say has the most radical ideology on the UK extreme right, is the latest neo-Nazi group to emerge following the proscription of National Action under anti-terror laws three years ago.\n\nCreated by a small number of people, Sonnenkrieg used the internet to exaggerate its size and capabilities, with members seeking direct action from those accessing its propaganda.\n\nTerrorism and criminality were encouraged, as was the transgression of what it caricatured as slavish morality, with sexual violence and paedophilia both advocated.\n\nTheir bizarre supernatural belief system imagined Hitler to be an avatar of a god, lionised the Moors Murderer Ian Brady and cult leader Charles Manson, and blended violent Satanism, a berserk misogyny, and admiration for radical Islamism.\n\nThe aim? To undermine and collapse civilization, which the group deemed a necessary forerunner to the creation of a Nazi warrior society.", "Middle-aged people are increasingly being lured into becoming \"money mules\" and their bank accounts used to launder proceeds of crime, a report suggests.\n\nMore than 40,000 cases which \"bore the hallmarks\" of money mule activity were reported to UK fraud prevention service Cifas last year, up 26% on 2017.\n\nThe largest rise - 35% - was among those aged between 41 and 60.\n\nIt is believed fraudsters target people without a criminal background, in the hope payments go unnoticed.\n\n\"Typically, money mules are recruited on social media sites and via messaging apps: they're offered payments if they allow their bank accounts to be used to transfer cash,\" said BBC home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw.\n\nMany may not initially realise they are committing a crime.\n\nMost money mules are young men and those who try to quit may be threatened with violence by the criminals who roped them in.\n\nIf they are caught they could face prison, as well as consequences for their ability to manage their finances, such as having their bank account closed and finding it difficult to apply for credit in the future.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nHolly would receive money into her bank account and then transfer it to another account or take it out in cash and give it to someone.

He could barely walk up the pavilion steps, was unable to sit in his post-match news conference and was a doubt to play in this game.\n\nIn addition, it was a complete contrast to the first part of England's innings. For as comfortable as Bairstow and Root were on a used wicket against some respectable bowling, their progress was little more than sedate.\n\nMorgan changed all that. When he arrived at the end of the 30th over, England were 164-2. With the left-hander as the catalyst, the final 15 overs brought 198 runs in a blur of six-hitting that turned fielders into spectators and spectators into fielders.\n\nWhen Afghanistan dropped short, he heaved the ball over the leg side, often into the massive temporary stand. When the ball was pitched up, he smashed it straight.\n\nHe had one life, on 28, when Dawlat Zadran barely got one hand to a chance at deep mid-wicket. After that, Morgan pummelled 120 from his next 46 balls to the delight of the crowd who at one point were singing his name.\n\nHis first fifty came from 36 balls and his second from 21. In the 14 balls he faced after reaching three figures, one of which got him out, he plundered 47 runs.\n\nWhen he was dismissed, caught at long-off, he received a handshake from bowler and opposite number Gulbadin Naib, then departed to a rapturous standing ovation.\n• None Police called to incident with Afghanistan players at restaurant\n\nEngland are slowly growing into this tournament and, in doing so, have put their sole defeat by Pakistan - a game in which their fielding was awful - well behind them.\n\nSterner tests await. They still have group games against Australia, New Zealand and India to come, but it may be that victory on Friday is enough to secure a place in the last four.\n\nThis was the type of contest which England teams of the past would have approached with nervous trepidation, yet, bar two Bairstow dropped catches, Morgan's men ruthlessly dealt with the weakest team in the tournament.\n\nFour of their batsmen have made hundreds - no other team has more than two centurions - and, in a competition where extreme pace has yielded the greatest success, Jofra Archer and Mark Wood have 21 wickets between them.\n\nEngland will dearly wish for Jason Roy to be fit for at least the knockout stages. With the opener absent because of a hamstring injury, James Vince made a characteristically handsome 26, then holed out in characteristically frustrating fashion.\n\nEven before this game, Afghanistan were not having an enjoyable time in Manchester. On Monday night, police had to be called to a restaurant after an altercation between some of their squad and a member of the public.\n\nThey lost an important toss on Tuesday - this game might have been different had their spinners been giving a total to defend.\n\nBut that did not excuse a fielding performance littered with errors or bowling that crumbled in the face of Morgan's assault.\n\nRashid Khan, their star leg-spinner, conceded 110 runs from nine overs, the joint second-worst return in ODI history and the most expensive in a World Cup match.\n\nWhen Archer bowled Noor Ali Zadran in the second over of the reply, there was the feeling that a batting line-up which had already struggled in this tournament could disintegrate.\n\nTo their credit, they showed some great spirit, none more so than Hashmatullah Shahidi, who made 76 despite a sickening blow to the helmet from Wood.\n\n'I never thought I could do that' - what they said\n\nMan of the match Eoin Morgan: \"I didn't think at any stage it was going to be my day. Getting quite old, running around with a bad back, I never thought in my wildest dreams I'd produce an innings like that.\n\n\"It was a special day. It's the World Cup. We're loving playing in it.

Polar science and polar cartography are all about tracing change.\n\nLaura has just finished making a exquisite new printed sheet map (1:4,000,000) of Greenland.\n\nThe detail is a delight - from the winding path of all the fjords and inlets, to the precise positioning of current ice margins, and the use of all those tongue-twisting Greenlandic names.\n\nThe Arctic is one of the fastest warming places on Earth\n\n\"The map is a little unusual because the area has not been shown on one sheet like this before,\" explains Laura.\n\n\"We have good maps, obviously, of Europe, of Iceland, of Svalbard - but there is nothing that puts them all together on one sheet and shows their relationship like this.\n\n\"The map is aimed at scientists, clearly; BAS is a scientific organisation.

Laura Gerrish and Henry Burgess: \"It's aimed at scientists, tourists, visitors and schools\"\n\nGreenland And The European Arctic, to give the map its full title, has taken nearly two years to put together.\n\nLaura has had to call on more than a dozen data-sets to get the shape of Greenland exactly right. These have been checked against the latest satellite imagery to ensure physical features are where they're supposed to be.\n\nOne or two features, such as islands in the Qimusseriarsuaq (Melville Bay) region, are new because they've only recently been revealed by contracting ice fronts.\n\nThe map renders Greenland in relation to northern Europe\n\nCare has been taken in particular to plot the present extents of all the glaciers, including the big ice streams that sometimes hit the science headlines, such as Jakobshavn, Petermann, Zachariae Isstrom, and Helheim.\n\nThese glaciers have demonstrated some remarkable retreat behaviour. Although just to prove what a thankless task this business can be, they've also shown recently that they can slow and lengthen as well (the net area of 47 regularly surveyed glaciers essentially stood still last year).\n\nYou might wonder what the British Antarctic Survey is doing making maps of the polar north. Henry Burgess, the head of the NERC Arctic Office which is hosted at the survey's HQ in Cambridge, has a simple answer.\n\n\"BAS is the national capability and logistics provider for the polar regions,\" he told me. \"It provides the ships and the planes and the expertise, and the BAS mapping department therefore has a responsibility in both the north and the south.\"\n\nHenry is especially pleased with the flip side of the sheet map. This has a series of panels that attempt to put the cartography in a wider context.\n\nDifferent organisations from the UK Met Office to WWF have provided small summaries on various issues that range from the effects that a warming arctic are having on frozen ground and on weather at mid latitudes, to the challenges climate change presents to indigenous peoples and endemic wildlife.\n\nHopefully, the new fold-out sheet map of Greenland And The European Arctic should be good for at least a few years, but says Henry: \"We're seeing dramatic changes in Svalbard for example where we have our Arctic station; the glaciers are pulling back by 10s of metres per year.

What's beneath their feet - a shallow pool of crystal-blue water - is anything but.\n\nLast week, however, temperatures soared well above normal levels in Greenland, causing about half of its ice sheet surface to experience melting.\n\nAnd the sea ice around the territory is, of course, also feeling this heat.\n\nSteffen Olsen, a climate scientist at the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), took the photo on 13 June as these warming conditions reached their peak.\n\nMr Olsen and his team were retrieving equipment from a weather station in the Inglefield Fjord area. As they walked across the 1.2m (4ft) thick sea ice, water pooled on the surface.\n\nOn Twitter, his colleague at DMI Rasmus Tonboe later shared the image, telling followers \"rapid melt\" had occurred.\n\nBecause the sea ice is compact with almost no cracks, the image gives the impression the dogs are walking on water, Martin Stendel, senior researcher at the institute, told the BBC.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

He said the same two factors were thought to have caused last week's ice melt and the historic event of 2012.\n\nOne is high pressure lodged over Greenland, creating warm and sunny conditions. The other is low cloud cover and snowfall, meaning solar radiation can strike the ice sheet surface.\n\nGlobal warming, Mr Colgan said, was \"tremendously important\" to these sorts of events.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Watch: Huge iceberg breaks apart near a village in western Greenland\n\nA small fishing boat heads out into the sea ice near the town of Uummannaq in western Greenland\n\n\"What climate change is doing is increasingly loading the dice to set up weather conditions that can tip the ice sheets into these mass loss events,\" he said.\n\nIf these trends continued, said Professor Edward Hanna, a climate scientist at the University of Lincoln, Greenland could experience a record melt this year.\n\n\"The thing is, with climate trends, as we've seen over the past 20 years, as it gets warmer and warmer over Greenland, you don't need that much of an exceptional event to melt the whole surface of the ice,\" he told the BBC.\n\nThe consequences, he said, would not only be felt locally but globally, too.\n\nTemperatures were around 22C above normal in Greenland last week, data shows\n\nAs sea ice disappears, local communities who rely on it for transport, hunting and fishing are expected to suffer. On a global level, Prof Hanna said \"sea level rise is the big one\".\n\n\"You're losing something like 250 billion tonnes of ice a year on average. A huge mass is being transferred from the land into the oceans,\" he said.\n\nMr Colgan said we should be mindful that the melt on 13 June was just \"a one-day event that is surprising in its magnitude and its early onset\".\n\nAs studies showed, he said, global warming could mean more extreme melting events were yet to come.\n\n\"We can expect to see more of these in the future,\" he said.", "Japan's Kokuka Courageous and Norway's Front Altair were attacked on 13 June\n\nThe US government has accused Iran of being behind explosions which have damaged two tankers in the Gulf of Oman on Thursday.\n\nThe Iranian administration has denied any involvement despite the US military releasing a video it claims shows Iranian special forces removing an unexploded mine from the side of one of the tankers.\n\nBut what can be said for certain and what could happen next? The BBC's defence and diplomatic correspondent Jonathan Marcus answers questions about the incident sent in by BBC News readers.\n\nMr G Riordan: Is there a salvage plan? Are the tankers guarded or escorted? Do the tankers have CCTV? How do we make the Strait of Hormuz safe? Is it an act of terror?\n\nA lot of good questions there. I suppose if it turns out to be a state actor, e.g. Iran, behind these attacks then one would not call them \"terrorist\" as such. Striking at another country's merchant ships might in some circumstances be considered an act of war.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter?\n\nA concerted effort to hamper normal shipping in the Gulf would also clearly have significant strategic implications. Currently tankers are not guarded, though in the past, e.g. during the Iran-Iraq war, a convoy system was introduced to shepherd tankers through these confined waters accompanied by warships.\n\nClearly, experts will now be assessing the extent of the damage to the two vessels. Modern merchant ships may well have CCTV on board to monitor key areas. How much help this might give to any investigation is unclear.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAnonymous: The Iranian government's past behaviour is a good indicator of their future intentions to create havoc if they are not stopped: but how?\n\nThis is certainly how the US and its allies see it. Iran has made threats against merchant shipping in the Gulf and, in the US view, is a highly destabilising actor in the region.\n\nIran clearly takes a very different view, insisting it has a right to pursue its own regional interests and specifically that it did not target any of these tankers.\n\nWhat people say and what people do may be different. Iran resents the US intrusion into the Gulf. It is opposed to US policy in the region in Syria and elsewhere.\n\nThe danger is that far from being frightened by the reinforced US military presence in the Gulf it may feel that it has some latitude to push back. This is one of the dangerous elements in this equation.\n\nRay: In this day and age with so much satellite observation why isn't there more proof of who the attackers are?\n\nWell, you are right, satellites can be helpful but many of the most capable intelligence-gathering variety tend to belong to a very small group of countries and even then their coverage is not total. They need to be tasked to look at specific areas.\n\nI have no doubt the US is monitoring Iranian activity in the Gulf from a variety of platforms: satellites; aircraft; communications and signals intercepts; radar tracking and so on. Governments tend to be cautious - especially the Americans - about showing their satellite data. Often they do not want to reveal the full extent of their capabilities.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nAs an aside, one of the most interesting developments over recent years is the use of civilian satellite data by security researchers and think tanks to significantly amplify our knowledge and to provide a separate source of satellite intelligence. This has, however, generally been used to study fixed locations, e.g. North Korean or Iranian rocket or nuclear facilities. It is very hard for such groups to monitor an area like the Gulf in real-time.\n\nHarry: I want to know how many vessels were hit by mines prior to the US escalating their presence in the region.\n\nThe \"escalation\" of the US military presence is to some extent a propaganda ploy by the US. The presence of a US aircraft carrier battle group for example - currently the USS Abraham Lincoln - is far from unusual. There has indeed been some reinforcement, notably a small number of warplanes; the return of a Patriot anti-missile battery; and a small amphibious unit.\n\nAgain, it is all about sending signals rather than necessarily preparing for conflict. But there is no doubt that the US retains a formidable military capability in the region.\n\nAs to chronology, the earlier limpet mine attack on the four vessels was on 12 May. Prior to this (around 10 May) the US had announced it was stepping up its deployments to the region following what it said were concerns that Iranian elements or proxy forces were planning a number of attacks against US interests. Specifically, they claim to have seen missiles being loaded onto boats. Subsequently that threat seems to have passed, but in the meantime the four tankers were mined.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Similar tactics to North Korea?\n\nAnd James: Do you think it was Iran behind these latest attacks, or is it USA trying to stir things up whilst Iran host Shinzo Abe, Japanese PM?\n\nLet's cut to the chase here. Is Iran the most likely country to be responsible for the attacks - probably yes.\n\nHas the United States made a 100 per cent case against Tehran? Not yet.\n\nWill Iran ever admit to these attacks even if its forces did carry them out? Clearly no.\n\nIs anyone else going own up to carrying them out?

But to what end is not clear.\n\nThe demands made by key US officials of Tehran are simply unrealistic. The Trump Administration seems to be unclear as to its strategic goals.\n\nThinking the nuclear deal was a bad one and walking away from it is all very well. But to get a better deal in Mr Trump's terms appears to require Iran to radically change its behaviour and outlook; to almost cease being Iran. That is why critics of Mr Trump say that he really wants regime change in Tehran.\n\nThere certainly are people in his administration who support this. But equally Mr Trump, despite all his tweets and bluster, does not want to embark upon new overseas military commitments.\n\nIt also has to be said that all the other countries or organisations that were party to the nuclear deal (the JCPOA as it is known) think that whatever its flaws, that deal was better than no deal.\n\nThanks for all the questions.", "A further maths A-level paper due to be sat by about 7,000 candidates on Thursday has been replaced following the leak of an earlier exam last week.\n\nTwo questions from the Edexcel maths A-level paper were shared on social ahead of it being sat on Friday.\n\nPearson, the exam board's parent company, says it is replacing the latest paper and an unnamed centre is being investigated for the leak.\n\nIt described the move as \"precautionary steps\" to protect students.\n\nPearson said their investigation had revealed a package containing the further maths paper had been opened by an individual at the centre concerned.\n\nAccording to the company, there is no evidence to suggest the withdrawn test or any of its questions have been leaked but it is taking \"precautionary steps\" to safeguard the exam for the students.\n\nSharon Hague, senior vice-president, schools for Pearson, said: \"We have reached out to all of our centres directly to inform them of this decision.\n\n\"We will continue to support and communicate with them through this unusual yet necessary step that is vital for the safeguarding of confidence in the examination system and to ensure fairness for all learners.\n\n\"Our message to students is not to worry about this and focus on your revision as you normally would.\"\n\nArrangements are being made to deliver the new further maths paper to all centres shortly before Thursday's exam - with the exception of the one being investigated.\n\nFor this centre, separate arrangements are being made to ensure its students can complete their exams.\n\nIn a video message to students, teachers and parents, Ms Hague said it was necessary for everyone involved in the exam system to work together.\n\n\"We are reliant on the collaboration and trust of everyone involved in the exam system - and when someone commits malpractice, they let everyone down,\" she said.\n\nShe said the \"serious security breach\" last Thursday had been referred to the police, who had been asked to investigate it as a criminal matter.\n\nMs Hague added there were various ways to ensure fair outcomes from last week's A-level maths exam, including the option to exclude the two leaked questions from the final calculation.\n\nEarlier this year, Pearson said it would be trialling a scheme where microchips were placed in exam packs to track the date, time and location of the bundles.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

The reason why Matt Hancock, the health secretary, has backed Boris Johnson is plain.\n\nHe thinks he is going to be the prime minister and he wants to stay in the cabinet, with a big job. In the words of one source: \"It was back him now, or in five weeks' time, so best to get on board.\"\n\nThere is another reason, though, that explains why he, other MPs and ministers have climbed on board the Johnson jalopy even if they have fundamental disagreements with him.\n\nPlenty of MPs who worry about what he might do in office are joining his camp in order to stop him from veering off to the right - in the words of one, \"to anchor\" him in the middle ground.

Well of course, it's George Osborne, the former chancellor. A source said it had been made clear to Mr Johnson for several months by some of his colleagues that to make his leadership work he has to convince the middle of the Tory Party, not just the Brexit fringe, that he is up to the task.

Boy A was also found guilty of aggravated sexual assault.\n\nBoth have been remanded in detention until 15 July while the judge considers their sentences.\n\nMr Justice Paul McDermott has asked to review both boys' school reports as well as a number of social work reports.\n\nAna's naked body was found with a ligature around the neck in a derelict house three days after she went missing in May 2018.\n\nA former state pathologist identified 50 areas of injury on the schoolgirl's head and body, concluding the cause of her death was blunt force trauma to the head and neck.\n\nOn 14 May, Ana had left her house with Boy B in the early evening, thinking she was being taken to meet a boy she liked.\n\nShe was taken to the abandoned Glenwood House in Lucan in Dublin, about 3km (1.9 miles) away from her home, where Boy A was waiting.\n\nBoy A attacked and murdered Ana while Boy B watched, the court heard.\n\nAna was adopted from Russia when she was two by Irish woman Geraldine Kriégel and her French-born husband Patric\n\nAna's mother told the court she had been immediately concerned when her husband said their daughter had left the house with Boy B because she said Ana had no friends, and no one called for her.\n\nBy the time Mrs Kriégel went looking for her about 45 minutes later, she had already been killed.\n\nAna's innocence and longing for friendship made her a vulnerable target to those who wanted to take advantage of her, the court heard.\n\nDuring the trial at Dublin's Central Criminal Court, the boys gave different accounts of what had happened.\n\nBoy A denied ever being in the derelict house but forensic examinations established Ana's blood was on the boots he had been wearing, indicating that he either assaulted her or was very close by when she was attacked.\n\nHer blood was also found on a backpack in his house and on some of its contents - described by police as his \"murder kit\" - which included a homemade zombie mask, black gloves and a knee pad.\n\nSemen stains on a top found near Ana's body contained Boy A's DNA.\n\nThe jury was also shown a long wooden stick and concrete block found at the scene, which were stained with Ana's blood.\n\nThe Ana Kriégel murder trial shocked and gripped people in the Republic of Ireland.\n\nThat was partly because it was every parent's worst nightmare and partly because it revived memories of the Jamie Bulger case, when two 10-year-olds were found guilty of the toddler's 1993 murder in Merseyside in England.\n\nThe crime of children murdering children is rare anywhere but no-one can remember a case like this in Ireland.\n\nThere will inevitably be a public debate about underage crime and punishment, with calls for parents to take a closer interest in their children's social media and internet use.\n\nAdults found guilty of murder are given automatic life sentences but there are no set guidelines for children.\n\nFor the families of all involved, there is unlikely to be an early end to their nightmares.\n\nBoy B's defence counsel told the jury that the boy had been \"set up\" by his co-accused.\n\nAfter a number of interviews, Boy B admitted he had been in the house with Ana and Boy A but ran away when Boy A began raping Ana.\n\nDuring questioning, Boy A said he had been with Ana on 14 May but when police told him Ana's parents reported her missing at 20:00 local time he denied being with her in the run-up to that time.\n\nAna's parents described her as a \"dream come true\"\n\nBoy A returned home that evening with a number of injuries and claimed he was attacked by two men in the local park where he had last seen Ana.\n\nAna's parents Patric and Geraldine Kriégel, who had been in court each day of the trial, hugged and wept with friends as the verdicts were delivered.\n\nOutside court, Mr Kriégel described their daughter as \"our strength\".\n\n\"Ana was a dream come true for us and she always will be,\" said her mother.\n\n\"She'll stay in our hearts forever loved and be forever cherished.\n\nBoy B's father left the room immediately after the verdict, slamming the door before returning shortly afterwards, clapping and loudly stating: \"An innocent child is going to prison.\"\n\nBoth Boy A and Boy B's mothers wept and held their sons before they were taken away by police.", "The BBC Reality Check team has been checking claims made by the five remaining candidates to replace Theresa May in their live BBC debate.\n\nHere are the verdicts on one claim from each of them in the event chaired by Emily Maitlis.\n\nAll the candidates were asked about their plan for the Irish border after Brexit (most want to change the Irish backstop plan negotiated by Theresa May to avoid a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic).\n\nBoris Johnson was challenged by Rory Stewart to detail what tariffs (taxes on imports) would be charged on agricultural goods crossing the border.\n\nHe said there would be \"no tariffs or quotas\" because \"what we want to do is get a standstill in our current arrangements under GATT 24\" until a free trade deal had been negotiated.\n\nGATT 24 is an article of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. Supporters of a no-deal Brexit say it would allow the UK to continue to trade with the EU without tariffs for up to 10 years, while the two sides were negotiating a permanent future trade agreement.\n\nBut you can't use it in this way - a trade agreement has to be agreed in principle before Article 24 can be used.\n\nIt also needs the two sides to agree - the UK can't just impose it on the EU.

The EU still requires physical checks of goods at the Swedish border, so this system alone wouldn't eliminate the need for checks at the border in Ireland - a key sticking point in negotiations.\n\nYou can read more about the question of technology on the Irish border here.\n\nMichael Gove used a figure on good and outstanding schools that has been criticised by the UK Statistics Authority.\n\nYou can read the letter to the secretary of state for education here.\n\n\"You have nearly 25% of primary school leavers unable to read - I want us to be the Conservative government that abolishes illiteracy,\" he said.\n\nWhile 25% of year 6 pupils in 2018 failed to meet the expected standard for reading, that does not mean they were unable to read.\n\nLast week, the government said it would pass a law committing the UK to cutting net emissions of greenhouse gases to zero by 2050 (that means any remaining emissions will be offset by investing in carbon reduction projects in other countries).\n\nRory Stewart said that it was the most ambitious target so far set by any advanced industrial economy.\n\nThe UK would indeed be the first major industrial economy to legislate in this way, and the first G7 country to set a net-zero emissions target by 2050.\n\nBut, the Green Party has pointed out that Norway has a 2030 target for net-zero emissions, while Finland has committed to be carbon neutral by 2035.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nConservative MPs may have whittled the contenders in the leadership race down to the final two - but it will not be politicians who will decide who gets to be the next prime minister.\n\nInstead it will be the party's grassroots members who will decide which of Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson gets to succeed Theresa May.\n\nThey will do so in a postal ballot, with the winner announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nIn other words, it is members of the public - those who pay £25 a year to join the Conservative Party - who get the final say on who leads the country.\n\nThere will not be a general election because the party is already in power.\n\nSo, who are the Conservative Party's members and what do they think on key issues, not least, of course, Brexit?\n\nThe Conservative Party membership is currently thought to be around 160,000 - a rise of more than 30,000 in the past 12 months.\n\nThe last time official figures were released was in March 2018, when they put the figure at 124,000.\n\nThat is way down on the peak of nearly 3 million that the party boasted in the early 1950s.\n\nThe Tories have far fewer members than the Labour Party.\n\nEven if we assume that Labour's membership has fallen from the late 2017 peak of more than 550,000, it still has a huge advantage over the Conservatives when it comes to campaigning on the ground.\n\nRight now, however, none of that matters as much as the fact that those 160,000 or so rank-and-file members of the Conservative Party have a crucial role.\n\nThey are going to be choosing the next prime minister of a country of over 65 million people - something which has never happened before.\n\nFrom studies of the 124,000 members that the party had in 2018, we know quite a lot about who they are and their beliefs.\n\nMost members of most parties in the UK are pretty middle-class.\n\nBut Conservative Party members are the most middle-class of all: some 86% of them fall into the ABC1 category used by market researchers to describe the top social grade.\n\nAround a quarter of them are, or were, self-employed and nearly half of them work, or used to, in the private sector.\n\nNearly four out of 10 put their annual income at over £30,000, and one in 20 put it at over £100,000. As such, Tory members are considerably better-off than most voters and, indeed, the members of other parties.\n\nOn the other hand, the fact that 97% of Conservative Party members are white doesn't do much to distinguish them from their counterparts in other parties.\n\nIt does inevitably mean, however, that ethnic minorities, who make up well over 10% of British people, are heavily under-represented in the Tory rank and file.\n\nSo, too, are women. Other parties - notably Labour and the Greens, but also the SNP - now come close to gender balance, but seven out of 10 Conservative members are male.\n\nTory members are also older than the members of most other parties. True, their average age may \"only\" be 57, but this disguises the fact that four out of 10 are over 65.\n\nThey are concentrated in the southern half of England. Nearly 60% of Tory members live in London, the east, south-east and south-west.\n\nSo much for demography and geography. What about ideology?\n\nWell, not surprisingly, Tory Party members are more right-wing than the population as a whole.\n\nOn a scale where zero represents very left-wing and 10 very right-wing, the average voter places themselves at the centre point. The average Conservative Party member places themselves at 7.6.\n\nThree-quarters of them believe, for instance, that young people today don't have enough respect for traditional values. Nearly six out of 10 support the death penalty.\n\nThey are also conventionally right-wing on some aspects of economic policy.\n\nFor example, only 15% of them believe that government should redistribute income from the better-off to those who are less well-off.\n\nBut on other issues they hold views that may be more unexpected.\n\nA third of Tory rank-and-file members believe that ordinary working people do not get their fair share of the nation's wealth and that there is one law for the rich and one for the poor.\n\nAbout half believe that big business takes advantage of ordinary people.\n\nInterestingly, they have also cooled on austerity. In the summer of 2015, some 55% said government spending cuts hadn't gone far enough, but two years later that had fallen to 28%.\n\nWhat Tory members haven't cooled on, however, is Brexit.\n\nIndeed, since we started tracking them in 2015, they've hardened their position.\n\nIt is clear that they are not supporters of the deal negotiated by Theresa May.\n\nIn fact, it is now the case that fully two-thirds of them back a no-deal Brexit - an outcome supported by only a quarter of voters as a whole.\n\nNor are they in the least bit keen on the idea of letting the public have another say on the UK's EU membership.\n\nSome 84% of them oppose the idea of a new referendum on the issue.\n\nIn short, the grassroots aren't simply sceptical on Europe; they can't wait to leave, whatever that might take.\n\nFurthermore, a breakdown of YouGov polling data suggests that the 30,000 or so members who have joined in the past year are even more likely to be pro-Brexit.\n\nThis, then, is the Conservative Party electorate.\n\nAnd those MPs hoping to succeed Mrs May will need to pitch their promises accordingly.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from experts working for an outside organisation.\n\nTim Bale is Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.", "If your first and only brush with the men who want to move into No 10 had been those sixty minutes of debate, would you really conclude that Boris Johnson is the soaraway favourite and Rory Stewart is the exciting one to watch?\n\nIn fact, a source in the camp of one of the candidates tonight suggests if a newbie to the spectacle were told that afterwards, they would \"stare in utter disbelief\".\n\nThat's not just a reminder that it's always worth skimming off some of Westminster's daily froth to see what's underneath - but that political contests are full of ups and downs, and are rarely a smooth glide to the top or a straight slide down and out.\n\nThe former foreign secretary was less sure-footed than the strength in his numbers suggests. But he avoided blundering into fresh disaster, and voting rounds have put him out of reach of the rest.\n\nAfter a metaphorical lock down lasting weeks, Boris Johnson now has only two days left to step carefully around any banana skins in order to book his place in the final two. But the joust to join him there is real.\n\nRory Stewart's apparent rising star shone a lot less brightly than his converted fans might have hoped. The senior cabinet trio, Messrs. Hunt, Gove and Javid, were all content with their time in the studio.\n\nAnd when it comes to votes, all four are within easy potential reach of each other - at this stage, all are reluctant to withdraw.\n\nBut by Thursday, they and the Tory party have a bigger decision to make: who, if any among them, will give up their own dream, in the hope of mounting a serious and collective effort to stop Boris Johnson?\n\nStrangely, at this moment, the tension in this race is not about the identity of the likely winner, but which politician will wrangle their way to second place.", "The scheme involves unpaid work as well as psychological assessment and treatment\n\nMore than 400 people whose crimes would normally attract a jail term of up to a year have instead served their sentences outside prison.\n\nThe scheme, known as an enhanced combination order, has been running in three court districts since 2015.\n\nThe rehabilitation order has led to a 20% reduction in the number of short-term jail sentences in those areas.\n\nThe order, which lasts between 12 months to three years, involves unpaid work in the community.\n\nIt also involves intensive probation, restorative intervention, psychological assessment and treatment.\n\nJames was given the option of avoiding prison by participating in the programme after he admitted to a public order offence while drunk and high on drugs.\n\nThe scheme allows people who would previously have spent time behind bars seek rehabilitation\n\nJames, which is not his real name due to concerns for his safety if he is identified, said the programme forced him to address his offending behaviour.\n\n\"I got to write a letter of apology to the police, and I got to hand it in and apologise, person to person, and we got to shake hands and just say: 'I'm sorry for that act of stupidness.'\n\n\"I think if I got sent to prison I would have had an aspect of what prison life was like.

It is very clear that the governor, through his vision and very visible leadership, has energised the staff and undoubted pride and optimism are emerging around the prison.\"\n\nRoger Swindells, chair of the prison's independent monitoring board, said plans put in place to support sex offenders, needed to be \"monitored and challenged\".\n\nHe said there had been \"significant improvement in the way in which acts of violence are now investigated\" and added the board could see \"visible and tangible efforts to both disrupt the supply of drugs into the prison\".", "How does the deadline talk stack up?\n\nFour of the five candidates committed to leave the EU by - or not longer after - 31 October.

The five Conservative leadership contenders were asked about resolving the Irish border issue\n\nThe five remaining candidates to become the next prime minister have clashed over how to avoid a hard border in Ireland after Brexit.\n\nThe MPs running to become Conservative leader answered questions from the public in a live debate on BBC One.\n\nAll five agreed the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland should remain \"free and open\".\n\nBut they offered different visions of how they would ensure this.\n\nFour of the five have rejected the backstop, which was part of the withdrawal agreement negotiated by Prime Minister Theresa May.\n\nThe backstop is a position of last resort to maintain a seamless border on the island of Ireland in the event that the UK leaves the EU without securing an all-encompassing deal.\n\nOnly International Development Secretary Rory Stewart spoke in favour of it.\n\nBBC viewer Mark Nolan, from Ballyclare in County Antrim, asked the candidates how they would \"solve the issue of the Irish border\".\n\nThe debate was the first to feature Boris Johnson\n\nFrontrunner Boris Johnson said he remembered the Troubles and \"nobody wants to see the return of any kind of infrastructural or hard border\" on the island of Ireland, insisting the UK government would \"never\" do that.\n\nHe insisted the problems posed by trade across the border could be resolved during an implementation period as the UK leaves the EU.\n\nThe former foreign secretary argued the EU could be persuaded to amend its Brexit deal as it did not want the UK to leave in a disorderly manner and wanted the £39bn so-called divorce bill negotiated as part of the withdrawal agreement.\n\nBoris Johnson said \"nobody wants to see a hard border\"\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt said technology could be used to create a \"soft border\", but it was important the UK was not \"trapped\" indefinitely in the customs union.\n\n\"It is for us to come up with the solutions that would work,\" he said.\n\n\"What we can't have is a return to border infrastructure on the island of Ireland, because that was one of the fundamental achievements of the Good Friday Agreement.\"\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. What do the British public want to ask the Conservative hopefuls?\n\nHome Secretary Sajid Javid said the backstop needed to be time-limited, arguing Parliament would not vote for it as it stood.\n\nMr Javid previously pledged to pay Ireland for the cost of border technology.\n\n\"Border force has looked at this. It is perfectly possible to have an open border with two different customs arrangements on either side of the border using existing technology,\" he said.\n\nThe Irish government and EU have both rejected this argument.\n\nEnvironment Secretary Michael Gove said the \"peace process is about much more than just trade across the border\".\n\nHe said there was a need to \"supercharge\" work on alternative arrangements that could replace the backstop.\n\nRory Stewart said the only way to ensure an open border was through a withdrawal agreement that must include the backstop as it is currently configured.\n\nThis would see Northern Ireland staying aligned to some rules of the EU single market.\n\nMr Stewart said the EU had made it \"entirely clear\" the withdrawal agreement must include the currently configured backstop.\n\nDominic Raab was knocked out of the Tory leadership race in the second ballot of MPs earlier on Tuesday.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

He is absolutely confident about what's next.\"\n\nFifa said it was aware of Platini's questioning, but added it was \"not in a position to comment further\".\n\nPlatini was banned over a 2m Swiss francs (£1.3m) \"disloyal payment\" from Blatter, who was also banned from football for his part in the matter. Blatter has also always denied any wrongdoing.\n\nPlatini's eight-year ban was later reduced to four on appeal and will expire in October 2019.\n\nQatar's bid team has been previously accused of corruption, but was cleared following a two-year Fifa inquiry.\n\nHowever, former Football Association chairman Greg Dyke told BBC Radio 4's PM programme that the decision to award Qatar the 2022 World Cup was a \"bizarre\" one.\n\n\"I think anyone who was involved in that decision has to be questioned because it was such a bizarre decision,\" he said.\n\n\"It was against the advice of their own technical committee, who said they didn't think it would be safe - and as we now know they have had to move it to the winter to make it safe. And Qatar didn't meet all sorts of criteria, so it was always a very odd decision.\n\n\"I like Michel Platini. I thought he was a good leader for Uefa and he was a very likeable, charismatic man.\n\n\"In some ways it's sad that this is being dragged up again but if you look at the wider picture of why was that World Cup awarded to Qatar, there are still so many questions to be answered.\"\n\nThis is the result of two years of work by French investigators from the country's serious financial crime unit, who - just like their counterparts in the US and Switzerland - have been looking into allegations of corruption connected to Fifa's shock decision to award Qatar the World Cup in 2022.\n\nGiven that Blatter has been interviewed as part of the same case, it is no surprise that Platini is also now facing questions.\n\nIt is understood these will focus on a lunch Platini attended in Paris just days before that hugely controversial vote in 2010, with the then French president Nicolas Sarkozy at his official residence and the Qatari head of state.\n\nIt has long been suspected that the prospect of important bilateral trade deals between the two nations, and the subsequent Qatari takeover of Paris St-Germain may have been used as leverage to get Sarkozy's support.\n\nPlatini has always denied that was why he changed his mind to vote for Qatar (rather than the US).\n\nGiven how much time has now passed since the 2010 vote, and how much has changed at Fifa, there seems no real prospect that this latest development could affect Qatar's status as hosts, even if Platini is charged.\n\nFifa's own 2014 internal investigation effectively cleared Qatar of corruption, and stripping it of the event at this stage could leave it open to legal action.\n\nBut yet again it does serve as a reminder of the scandal and suspicion that surrounds the saga of how Qatar won the right to stage the event.\n\nBack in 2015, when still one of the sport's most powerful figures, Platini told me he had \"no regrets\" about voting for Qatar, despite the allegations of corruption and human rights abuses directed against the country, and the havoc a winter tournament would play with the European game he represented at the time.\n\nHe may feel differently now.", "Avril Forsythe signed up to the deal as she thought it sounded like a good idea\n\nA company that Australian media has described as operating an \"alleged scam\" has close links to a business in Northern Ireland, the BBC has learned.\n\nViewble Media Pty Ltd has been accused of leaving Australian businesses almost $31m AUS (£16.9m) in debt.\n\nA BBC investigation has discovered it has close links to a company in County Down.\n\nViewble Media UK Ltd was operating across the UK from Groomsport.\n\nBBC News NI has been contacted by businesses from across Northern Ireland, Yorkshire and London that claim to have lost money through an advertising deal.\n\nAs part of the deal, a shop owner buys a screen from Viewble at a cost of £299 a month for three years, paying a total sum of almost £11,000.\n\nA second associated company, the Shoppers Network UK Ltd, then rents the screen for advertising, paying the shop owner £299 a month for three years.\n\nAs part of the deal, the shop would get its own advert shown on the screen, and get its ad shown in neighbouring businesses.\n\nIt is referred to as a cost neutral deal.\n\nThe shop owners, though, found that the payments from the second company stopped coming.\n\nAnd they did not realise that if anything went wrong, they would be stuck in the contract and would have to make repayments.\n\nThe business owners had signed finance deals, which meant they would owe the £11,000, and the repayments from the advertising were not guaranteed.\n\nAvril Forsythe, who runs the Goldmine Jewellers in Omagh, thought it sounded like a good deal at first.\n\n\"It was like there is no risk in this,\" she said.\n\n\"Now we've found out that when there is a default in the payments, that we are still liable and that we can't get out of the contract.\"\n\nAndrew Bustard, of Castlederg-based Top Gear Motors, had a screen installed in his car show room and is now also out of pocket.\n\n\"I think everyone knows when your heart sinks and you realise that you've signed up to something that is not what it's supposed to be or what you were promised,\" he said.\n\nAdam and Andrew Bustard from Top Gear Motors in Castlederg also had a screen installed\n\nBoth business owners stopped getting repayments in December, but are contractually committed to paying what they owe for the next three years.\n\nBBC News NI found that Viewble Media UK Ltd has close links to the Australian business, which, according to The Sydney Morning Herald, has been involved in this \"alleged scam\".\n\nThe Shoppers Network UK Ltd has some of the same company directors as Viewble and was supposed to make the repayments.\n\nBut it went under, meaning the payments to rent the screens stopped.\n\nAustralia's business ombudsman has launched an investigation after receiving more than 1,000 complaints about Viewble Media Pty Ltd and The Shoppers Network.\n\nIt said it is the biggest investigation it has ever dealt with.\n\nAustralian authorities say both businesses are now in liquidation and this has had a direct impact on the UK business.\n\nViewble Media Pty Ltd has been making headlines across Australia\n\nOnce problems started in Australia, businesses in the UK also stopped getting their payments.\n\nDavid Reid, whom Australian media describes as a director of the business in Australia, is also listed as a director of Viewble Media UK and The Shoppers Network in the UK.\n\nRicci Aiken from Northern Ireland is also listed as one of the directors of the UK business.\n\nThe BBC understands that Viewble Media UK is jointly owned by Mr Aiken, who has 25% of the shares, and an Australian firm, which owns the remaining 75% of shares.\n\nThe BBC has also seen an advert for a job as the general manager of Viewble Media UK.\n\nViewble Media offered businesses the opportunity to place a screen in their shop which would show adverts from other businesses\n\nThe role was based in Bangor, with a salary of £50,000.\n\nThe job advertisement indicated that the staff member would be expected to report directly to Viewble Media's chief executive in Australia.\n\nThe company also employed freelance sales agents across the UK.\n\nAccording to Companies House, both firms are still active in the UK, but clients stopped receiving payments from The Shoppers Network at the end of last year.\n\nMr Aiken told the BBC that the UK company has ceased trading, and that a new firm is taking on the clients. He said any issue with payments should be taken up with it.\n\nThe Small Business Commissioner Paul Uppal has been speaking to authorities in Australia about Viewble Media\n\nMr Aiken did not address concerns that the operation could be a scam or claims that the deals were mis-sold to businesses.\n\nDavid Reid said that a new media partner had been appointed in the UK and it has not had any complaints.\n\nHe also added that the Australian business is in liquidation, and said any questions should be directed to the liquidator.\n\nPaul Uppal, the Small Business Commissioner, said his office has been working with authorities in Australia and has also been dealing directly with businesses.\n\n\"They've told us just how draconian the contracts are and that they've ended up being signed into and how they now feel that they are trapped because of the situation,\" he said.\n\n\"So we're seeing first-hand the real stress that this can cause for a small business. It's just not the financial impact but it's also the mental impact that can cause on a family business.\"\n\nBusiness owners who believe they have been mis-sold finance deals should contact the Financial Ombudsman or the Small Business Commissioner.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Heads say inadequate funding for schools is adding to the pressure on teachers\n\nA one-off increase of £3.8bn would be needed to reverse 8% cuts in per pupil school spending, new analysis shows.\n\nThe Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) says a further £1.1bn would be needed each year up until 2023 to maintain spending in real terms, once rising costs were taken into account.\n\nCandidates for the Conservative leadership have been making competing promises on education spending.\n\nThe government says funding for schools has been at its highest level ever.\n\nSchool budgets have moved up the political agenda, partly as a result of campaigning by parents and head teachers across England.\n\nIFS analysis says since 2009, spending has fallen by 8% per pupil once rising costs such as pay and pension contributions are taken into account.\n\n\"It's the largest reduction in education spending for at least 30 or 40 years or longer, so it's not surprising it has generated political pressure,\" says their economist Luke Sibieta.\n\nIn a new analysis published on Tuesday, the IFS says to reverse that real terms fall for 5 to 16-year-olds would take a one-off increase of £3.8bn.\n\nThat includes all spending in schools, including that by local authorities, and is more than any candidate has promised so far.\n\nJules White, the Sussex head teacher who has led the WorthLess campaign said: \"There is immense frustration that this bidding war has begun, when the government has been in absolute denial about the financial constraints.\"\n\nTo keep up with rising pupil numbers, the IFS says £1.1bn a year would be needed to avoid future real terms cuts.\n\nA similar 8% increase for 16 to 19-year-olds would cost around £480m as a one-off uplift.\n\nSixth form and further education colleges have faced the sharpest squeeze in budgets in recent years.\n\nBut with some Conservative leadership contenders also suggesting tax cuts, it's not clear where the money would be found.\n\nMr Sibieta says making education a priority would deepen the squeeze elsewhere, unless the government increased borrowing.\n\n\"The NHS has received a very generous settlement in advance of the spending review, but over four years other government departments are being asked to reduce spending by £2.5bn in total\".\n\nThere is also a subtle rebuke for Boris Johnson from the IFS, after he described variation in funding per pupil in different parts of England as a \"postcode lottery\".\n\nA new funding formula for schools is being gradually introduced, based a combination of measures of need in different local authorities.\n\nThe IFS said: \"With the introduction of this formula, the government - which Mr Johnson was part of - effectively ended a long-standing postcode lottery in school funding in England.\"\n\nHowever, many in the lowest funded areas, which include many conservative heartlands in the counties and shires, remain disappointed that the formula will not lead to substantial increases for all.\n\nThe government has argued that school spending in England is at its highest level ever in cash terms.\n\nA statement from the Department for Education added: \"We know schools face budgeting challenges, which is why we have introduced a wide range of support to help schools reduce costs and get the best value from their resources.\"\n\n\"The Secretary of State has made clear that as we approach the next spending review, he will back head teachers to have the resources they need to deliver a world class education in the years ahead.\"", "James Wray and William McKinney were among 13 people shot dead at a civil rights march\n\nAn ex-British soldier facing prosecution for two murders on Bloody Sunday is expected to appear in court in Londonderry in August.\n\nThe Public Prosecution Service (PPS) said back in March there was enough evidence to charge him with the murders of James Wray and William McKinney.\n\nHe is also charged with the attempted murder of four other people.\n\nA PPS spokesperson said it expects to issue a summons to the ex-paratrooper -

And Business Is Good! won them a major recording contract with Capitol Records, who released the platinum-selling Peace Sells... But Who's Buying? in 1986.\n\nThe band's early success was marred by Mustaine's drug addiction, culminating in an arrest for driving under the influence in 1990.\n\nAfter entering a rehabilitation programme and getting clean, Mustaine refocused his attention on the band, culminating in the release of 1992's Countdown to Extinction - the band's most commercially-successful album, and a sign that metal still had an audience in the midst of grunge.\n\nThe album's title track also won an award from the Humane Society in 1993 for raising awareness for animal rights issues.\n\nHowever, the band nearly came to an end in 2002, when Mustaine fell asleep with his arm over the back of a chair - causing severe radial nerve damage.\n\nDoctors told him he might regain 80% of his movement back - but he'd never play guitar again. Undeterred, the star went through 18 months of painful therapy and got himself back on stage by 2004.\n\nTheir last album, Dystopia, was released in 2016, and the title track earned the band their first-ever Grammy, for best metal performance.\n\nEarlier this year, Megadeth released the career retrospective Warheads on Foreheads, and were set to celebrate the 35th anniversary of Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! before Mustaine's cancer diagnosis.\n\nIn his statement, the frontman vowed he would be \"back on the road asap\".\n\nFollow us on Facebook, on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts, or on Instagram at bbcnewsents.

Paul Woodrow, director of operations at London Ambulance Service (LAS), admitted the \"chaotic\" aftermath of the attack contributed to communication \"issues\".\n\nPolice told medics to stay away from the courtyard area around the Boro Bistro restaurant due to reports of shots being fired nearby, the Old Bailey heard.\n\nKhuram Butt, Rachid Redouane and Youssef Zaghba drove a van into pedestrians on London Bridge and stabbed people in and around Borough Market.\n\nJonathan Hough QC, counsel to the coroner, said two groups of people had known there were victims in need of urgent treatment in the courtyard outside Boro Bistro.\n\nBut neither group told people in the courtyard that ambulance staff had been instructed not to go there.\n\nMr Woodrow said the \"confusion\" after the attack \"hindered our ability, jointly, to get full situational awareness\".\n\nHe said LAS was \"overflowing with information\" and had received 134 related 999 calls on top of 4,400 already received from other incidents on a \"busy Saturday\".\n\nParamedics were being given information about various locations within a wide area, which some staff \"would not have an intimate knowledge of\", he said.\n\n\"In the very early stages of these incidents, they really are chaotic, and it's just a fact that we do not have an army of people there to filter the information,\" he added.\n\nHe said co-ordinating conflicting information in a large incident was \"not a problem that is easily resolved... it's just not realistic to expect that we can get 100 to 150 people into an area in the first 10 minutes of an incident\".\n\nThe court heard it was about three hours before medics entered the Boro Bistro courtyard, despite the knifemen being killed within 10 minutes of launching their attack.\n\nGareth Patterson QC, representing the families of some of the victims, said the delay was inconsistent with the need to provide urgent medical care in the \"golden hour\" following injury.\n\nThe inquest had previously heard medics were not told that Sébastien Bélanger, James McMullan and Alexandre Pigeard lay mortally wounded in the courtyard, while a police officer on the scene who had called for help was not told about ambulance resources awaiting casualties on Borough High Street.\n\nMr Woodrow said: \"There was clearly a breakdown in communications at that stage.\"\n\nMr Bélanger, 36, Mr McMullan, 32, and Mr Pigeard, 26, were eventually brought to ambulances at a safe meeting point away from the market, but they were already dead.\n\nThe victims of the London Bridge attack clockwise from top left - Chrissy Archibald, James McMullan, Alexandre Pigeard, Sébastien Bélanger, Ignacio Echeverría, Xavier Thomas, Sara Zelenak, Kirsty Boden\n\nThe others killed in the attack were Xavier Thomas, 45, Chrissy Archibald, 30, Sara Zelenak, 21, Kirsty Boden, 28, and Ignacio Echeverría, 39.\n\nMr Woodrow said LAS could not send specialist ambulance intervention teams - made up of medics, firefighers and armed officers - into a \"hot zone\" without input from police and fire services.\n\nBut he accepted it \"took too long to make a decision to commit\" to that strategy.\n\nMr Patterson said there was no evidence of whether or not the courtyard was specifically designated as a \"hot zone\".\n\nSome volunteer medics were allowed to break the rules to enter the high-risk zone to treat patients, the inquest heard.\n\n\"I'm proud of my staff who put themselves in harm's way,\" Mr Woodrow said.

and unfairly left off the list of research authors - for suggesting that \"vested interests\" did not want the study to be made public.\n\nPaul Skinner, representing the MoJ, said there had been no attempt to prevent or slow down the release of the results.\n\n\"The Ministry of Justice and the secretary of state wouldn't want to be giving people treatment that they thought didn't work,\" he said at the end of the seven-day hearing.\n\nEarlier, the tribunal heard that prison and probation officials at the MoJ had expressed concerns about the methods used in Ms Hopkins's study and wanted the research to stop.\n\nRebecca Endean, the department's then director of analytical services, said she had refused to do that but had agreed to work with officials to address the problems.\n\nMs Hopkins, who is representing herself at the hearing, believed that amounted to an attempt to \"fix\" the results so the treatment scheme would not be seen as a failure.\n\nShe also claimed Ms Endean \"bullied\" her.\n\nMs Endean denied the allegations, saying that, as it was her responsibility to present the findings to ministers, the methods had to be \"robust\", even if that involved \"asking stupid questions and making everyone's lives miserable\".\n\n\"I wanted to be absolutely sure we hadn't made a mistake,\" she said.\n\nHowever, the tribunal was told that it led to a breakdown in relations with Ms Hopkins who complained that in one meeting Ms Endean had shouted at her: \"Wipe the smile off your face.\"\n\nMs Endean denied using the phrase or shouting but accepted that Ms Hopkins had felt \"intimidated\".\n\nAn internal grievance investigation was conducted into the way managers had handled the analyst's claims of \"bullying\" and the stress-related mental health problems that she said it had caused.\n\nThe inquiry found against her but in a witness statement submitted to the tribunal, a former senior MoJ official acknowledged the department's shortcomings.\n\nOsama Rahman, who headed the analytics unit between 2014 and 2018, said it was clear Ms Hopkins's mental health had suffered.\n\n\"Given how [she] had felt, including claiming that she had felt suicidal, I believed that we had failed her,\" Mr Rahman said.\n\nA ruling on the case is expected in the next few weeks.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nIn the hours after two apparent attacks on tankers in the Gulf of Oman on Thursday, the US military released video footage which it said proved Iran was behind them.\n\nThe footage was said to show Iranian special forces removing a mine which had failed to explode.\n\nThe footage, though far from conclusive, was used by the US to make a more compelling case than earlier assertions of Iranian complicity in attacks in the region, which had not been accompanied by any evidence.\n\nBut a key question remains - what would be Iran's motive in attacking a Japanese and a Norwegian tanker carrying petrochemicals from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to Singapore and Taiwan?\n\nIran has come under massive economic pressure over the past year, since US President Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal and re-imposed some of the most aggressive sanctions in US foreign policy history - targeting Iran's oil sales, wider energy industry, shipping, banking, insurance and more.\n\nSome of the sanctions, because of their secondary nature, are designed to dissuade other nations from purchasing Iranian oil, the exports of which bring in about 30% of Iran's revenue.\n\nAnd they have managed to bring down Iran's oil exports by more than a third.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nSo far, Iran has in response pursued a policy of strategic patience. But if it was behind Thursday's attacks, what we may be seeing is the end of that policy.\n\nThe strategic patience may have run out.\n\nIran clearly changed tack last month after the US suspended sanctions waivers which had allowed certain countries to buy oil from Iran - significantly accelerating the Trump administration's goal of driving down Iran's exports to zero.\n\nIran's response was to scale back its commitments under the nuclear deal and to announce that, if Iran could not export its oil, no other country would be allowed to export theirs.\n\nAbout 30% of the world's seaborne oil transports travel through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic sea passage in the Gulf, on Iran's south coast.\n\nIran has made threats in relation to the strait before - but never acted on them.\n\nEven back in 2012, when the EU imposed an oil embargo against Tehran as part of a broader sanction regime adopted against the country because of the nuclear impasse, Tehran refrained from closing the passage.\n\nBut the re-imposition of sanctions recently by the US has significantly ratcheted up the pressure on Iran, pressure that would go some way to explaining why it might seek to threaten the international oil trade, while its own oil sits bounded by its borders.\n\nThe risk of such a strategic move is significant - the fallout is potential military escalation with the US and its allies in the region.\n\nIt is not a gamble that would have been made quickly or lightly.\n\nIt would have been taken by consensus by all the main heads of the different Iranian political institutions, with Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards (IRGC) playing a significant part given their influence over all regional dossiers, and the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, having the final say over all matters of security and international affairs.\n\nIf Iran is indeed behind these attacks, it would demonstrate that the country's key decision makers feel the risk of military escalation is one worth taking because of the lack of alternative options.\n\nIran may suspect that the risk is lower than it first seems, because Mr Trump does not want a war.\n\nRecent statements by the US president suggested that despite his bellicosity, he is open for talks with Iran without pre-conditions.\n\nThe Iranians will also be mindful however that Mr Trump's National Security Adviser John Bolton, a long-time critic of Iran, has openly called for the US to confront Iran.\n\nIf strategic patience is in fact at an end, Iran may feel that only by displaying the range and scale of its potential destabilising activities - including disruption of the international oil trade it has been barred from - can it increase its leverage with the US, and pull itself out from under the punishing sanctions its old foe has imposed.\n\nDr Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi is a Research Fellow, Middle East Security, at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies", "The US has deployed the aircraft carrier strike group to the Gulf\n\nThere are two competing narratives.\n\nThe first, which is favoured by US President Donald Trump's administration, is that Iran is up to no good. Preparations are said to have been seen for a potential attack on US targets, though few details have been revealed publicly.\n\nThe US has moved reinforcements to the region; it is reducing its non-essential diplomatic personnel in Iraq; and it is reportedly dusting off war plans.\n\nThe message to Tehran is clear: any attack on a US target from whatever source, be it Iran or one of its many proxies or allies in the region, will be met by a significant military response.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. What's behind the rising tensions between the US and Iran?\n\nThe second narrative lays the blame for this crisis squarely at Washington's door.\n\nIran - not surprisingly - holds to this view, but so too do many domestic critics of the Trump administration's approach.\n\nIndeed, to varying degrees many of Mr Trump's key European allies share some of these concerns.\n\nAccording to this narrative, the \"Iran hawks\" in the Trump administration - people like National Security Adviser John Bolton, or Secretary of State Mike Pompeo - sense an opportunity.\n\nTheir goal, this narrative argues, is regime change in Tehran. And if maximum economic pressure does not work then they believe, military action is not ruled out in the appropriate circumstances.\n\nReinstated US sanctions have pushed Iran's economy towards a deep recession\n\nThese two narratives reflect different interpretations of the reality and, as so often, they play up certain facts and ignore others to make their case.\n\nBut perceptions here matter just as much as reality. Indeed, in many ways they produce the reality.\n\nAnd that reality is that a conflict between the US and Iran - albeit by accident rather than design - is more likely today than at any time since Mr Trump took office.\n\nTensions in the Middle East are certainly mounting.\n\nIran, its economy suffering from the re-imposition of US sanctions that were lifted under a 2015 nuclear accord with world powers, is pushing back.\n\nIt has warned that it may no longer abide by the restrictions on its nuclear activities.\n\nIran's President, Hassan Rouhani, has said it does not want to pull out of the nuclear deal\n\nThe arrival of Mr Trump was a turning point.\n\nThe president pulled the US out of the nuclear deal a year ago and embarked upon a policy of maximum pressure against Tehran.\n\nIran has had enough. It is pushing the Europeans to do more to help its ailing economy and threatening if they do not - and it is hard to see what they can do - it will go ahead and breach the nuclear deal.\n\nThat would only give the Trump administration additional ammunition.\n\nJohn Bolton, the US national security adviser, has long pushed for regime change in Iran\n\nMuch now depends upon the dynamics inside the Trump administration and also on Tehran's assessment of what is going on there.\n\nThe president himself has sought to play down the idea that his officials are divided regarding Iran, and reports indicate that he has little enthusiasm for war.\n\nHis opposition to military entanglements abroad is well-known. However Mr Trump is unlikely to back down if US forces or facilities are attacked.\n\nHowever this is not necessarily the way things may be seen in Tehran.\n\nMight Iran think that it can play off Mr Bolton against his boss; raising tensions enough for the national security adviser's perceived designs to be revealed perhaps precipitating his downfall?\n\nIf that is Tehran's assessment, then it is a high-risk strategy.\n\nSpain withdrew a frigate from the US carrier strike group amid differences over Iran\n\nWhile Washington's key Middle Eastern allies - Israel and Saudi Arabia - may be applauding from the sidelines, Mr Trump's European partners are uneasy at the way things are heading.\n\nSpain, Germany and the Netherlands have all taken steps to suspend military activities in the region alongside the Americans, citing the rising tensions.\n\nThis is not the moment to rehearse what a conflict between Iran and the US would look like. But comparisons between such a conflict and the 2003 Iraq war are unhelpful.\n\nIran is a very different proposition to Saddam Hussein's Iraq.\n\nA full-scale invasion of Iran is not going to be on the cards.\n\nRather, this would be an air and maritime conflict with a huge dose of asymmetry in Iran's responses. It could set the whole region ablaze.\n\nThere were those who predicted a major foreign policy catastrophe when Mr Trump took office.\n\nInstead, there is an unfolding and multi-dimensional crisis that has many elements and the Iran situation illustrates them all: an antipathy to international agreements; an over-reliance on regional allies with their own agendas to pursue; rising tensions with long-standing Nato partners; and, above all, an inability to determine and to prioritise Washington's real strategic interests.\n\nWith the revival of great power competition, when the US is seeking to re-orientate its deployments and to bolster its armed forces to face a rising China and an emboldened Russia, where should Iran rate in Washington's strategic priorities?\n\nThe US sees the thousands of Iran-backed Shia Muslim paramilitary fighters in Iraq as a threat\n\nDoes the Iran threat really merit a major conflict? Many US strategic pundits would say no.\n\nMany accept that containing Tehran and, yes, threatening severe reprisals if US interests are attacked, may be necessary. But the steady drumbeat towards war is not.\n\nAnd one thing should be clear. There is no \"drift\" towards war. That suggests an involuntary process that people can do little about.\n\nIf there is a conflict then it will be down to conscious decision-making, to the calculations and miscalculations of the Iranians and the Americans themselves.", "Caster Semenya says athletics' world governing body \"used\" her like \"a human guinea pig\" by insisting she takes medication to control her testosterone.\n\nSouth Africa's Semenya, 28, is in legal dispute with the IAAF, who have said the 800m runner must take medication or compete over a different distance.\n\nThe two-time Olympic champion says the drugs made her feel \"constantly sick\" and have \"unknown health consequences\".\n\n\"I will not allow the IAAF to use me and my body again,\" said Semenya.\n\nSemenya spoke out as the Court of Arbitration for Sport released a 163-page document explaining in detail why it had rejected her appeal against the IAAF's rules.\n\nSince the Court of Arbitration for Sport's decision she has gone to Switzerland's Federal Supreme Court (SFT), which has temporarily suspended the IAAF ruling.\n\n\"The IAAF used me in the past as a human guinea pig to experiment with how the medication they required me to take would affect my testosterone levels,\" added Semenya.\n\n\"Even though the hormonal drugs made me feel constantly sick, the IAAF now wants to enforce even stricter thresholds with unknown health consequences.\n\n\"I am concerned that other female athletes will feel compelled to let the IAAF drug them and test the effectiveness and negative health effects of different hormonal drugs.

Their hormones, genes and reproductive organs may be a mix of male and female characteristics, which can lead to higher levels of testosterone - a hormone that increases muscle mass, strength and haemoglobin, which affects endurance and which - the IAAF argued - gives Semenya and DSD athletes an unfair advantage over other women.\n\nSince the ruling, Semenya has raced over 2,000m and took victory at the Meeting de Montreuil in Paris.\n\nShe has been named in South Africa's preliminary squad for the World Championships in Qatar later this year but has only been entered in the 800m, meaning her participation depends on the outcome of her appeal.\n\nThe Court of Arbitration for Sport has said the new rules for athletes with differences of sexual development were discriminatory, but concluded that the discrimination was \"necessary, reasonable and proportionate\" to protect \"the integrity of female athletics\".\n\nThe IAAF has welcomed the full release of the Cas findings, saying: \"Having the arguments of all parties and the detailed findings of the Cas panel in the public domain will help to foster greater understanding of this complex issue.\n\n\"The IAAF considers that the DSD regulations are a necessary, reasonable and proportionate means of protecting fair and meaningful competition in elite female athletics, and the Cas agreed.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nA man who hurled milkshake over Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has been ordered to pay him compensation.\n\nMr Farage had given a speech on 20 May in Newcastle before the European elections when he was attacked.\n\nPaul Crowther, 32, of Holeyn Road, Throckley, pleaded guilty to common assault and criminal damage at North Tyneside Magistrates' Court.\n\nHe was given 150 hours of unpaid work assessment and ordered to pay Mr Farage £350 compensation.\n\nThe attack, which involved a £5.25 banana and salted caramel milkshake, was described in court as being \"politically motivated\".\n\nDistrict Judge Bernard Begley said: \"This was an act of crass stupidity.\"\n\nDefence solicitor, Brian Hegarty, described Crowther's actions as a \"moment of madness\" and said his client now regretted what he had done.\n\nMr Hegarty said: \"Ordinarily a man of his position would receive a caution.\n\n\"The fact is, it is said to be a politically motivated incident which has caused him to appear before this court and caused him to lose his good name.\"\n\nProsecutor James Long said Mr Farage was shocked and embarrassed by the attack and said that, for a split second, he would not have known whether it was milkshake, or \"something more sinister\".\n\nCrowther was arrested at the scene after being filmed dousing Mr Farage.\n\nHe told journalists the act was \"a right of protest against people like him\" and said of Mr Farage: \"The bile and the racism he spouts out in this country is far more damaging than a bit of milkshake to his front.\"\n\nThe hearing heard that Crowther had been sacked from his job as a Sky technical advisor.\n\nCrowther has been sacked from his job as a Sky technical advisor\n\nA number of crowdfunding pages have been set up to cover Crowther's costs.\n\nA Gofundme page entitled \"Get Paul Crowther his milkshake money back\" raised £1,705 while a separate campaign on the same site has donations of more than £1,300 to pay off Crowther's fine.\n\nMore than £400 has been raised for the fine on JustGiving.\n\nA second page on the same platform has raised £12 for a \"new milkshake\", double its target, because Mr Farage's suit \"absorbed much of the last one\".\n\nIn the immediate aftermath of the incident, Mr Farage was heard telling a member of security staff that he \"could have spotted that a mile off\".\n\nLater that day, he said: \"I won't even acknowledge the low-grade behaviour that I was subjected to this morning.

Berlin vs London: Which city is better for renters?\n\nThe Berlin draft law, approved by the city's Senate, is being keenly watched across Germany, as there have been many complaints about housing costs elsewhere too, for example in Hamburg.

An open showing of a newly available flat is likely to attract well over 100 hopeful, would-be tenants. Demand is pushing up rents as corporate investors buy up and renovate old or dilapidated buildings, and it's pricing Berliners out of their old neighbourhoods.\n\nDemand and rents are rising in many other German cities too. Berlin is, by comparison with somewhere like Munich, still relatively cheap but, even as the Berlin authorities ponder their response, Chancellor Angela Merkel has promised to take action over what is an increasingly sensitive subject for the electorate.\n\nChancellor Merkel, of the Christian Democrats (CDU), agrees with the SPD - her coalition partner - that the squeeze on affordable housing is a problem. But she argues that the best solution is to build new homes.\n\nUnder the Berlin plan, the rent cap - likely to become law in January - would be backdated to 18 June, to prevent landlords from pushing up rents sharply over the next six months.\n\nGerman public broadcaster ARD says property companies have strongly criticised the proposed rent freeze. Some argue that such a freeze would reduce housing improvements by landlords, including investments in better insulation and other green economy measures.\n\nSome critics argue that there would be many exemptions, undermining the law's effectiveness. For example, rents for new builds could go up sharply as they would not be covered by the cap.\n\nGerman property firms justify the cost of new apartments by arguing that construction costs have risen 33% in Germany since 2005, compared with just 6% in the Netherlands, ARD reports.\n\nAre you a renter living in Berlin who is potentially affected by the changes?

It's vital that the Scottish government embeds the housing needs of older people in the planning process, especially those living alone.\n\n\"We need to build more accessible, age-friendly homes, that are the right type and tenure and enable people to live independently as long as possible. Most older people want to stay part of their own communities and prefer not to have to move as their health needs change.\n\n\"We also need more action to tackle the soaring levels of pensioner poverty and loneliness and isolation. Single older people are more likely to experience financial hardship, with six in 10 struggling to pay their fuel bills. They are also more at risk of loneliness, which can have a devastating impact on their physical and mental health.\"\n\nSettling down into marriage or civil partnership at an older age and divorce also contributes to more solo households.\n\nAnd many younger people are choosing to live alone.\n\nThe figures are put together each year to help planners, especially local authorities, to make decisions on housing provision and to organise things like waste collection, community care and risk analysis by Fire and Rescue Services.\n\nThe rise in one-person households is partly down to the ageing population\n\nWith the number of people living alone on the up, housing charity Shelter Scotland said this information should encourage housebuilders to change the kind of properties they offered.\n\nIt said policymakers and housebuilders needed to catch up with this demand for different types of housing which would only get more intense as these demographic changes continued.\n\nGordon MacRae from Shelter said: \"The failure to keep up with this long-term trend for more and smaller households is why Scotland is in the grip of a housing emergency. This emergency has a real human cost with almost 35,000 applications for homelessness in the last full year and 130,000 households on council waiting lists.\n\n\"Fundamentally, we need to see many more homes built with priority given to new homes for rent from councils and housing associations to ensure no-one is left behind. We also need people's housing rights strengthened and enforced so homelessness is prevented wherever possible.\"\n\nThe number of households has increased in every council area over the last 10 years, with the greatest relative increases occurring in Midlothian (16%) and the Orkney Islands (13%).", "The royal couple have sent their best wishes to the woman, called Irene\n\nAn elderly woman is in a serious condition in hospital after a road accident involving the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's police escort.\n\nPrince William and Kate were travelling from London to Windsor when the woman, 83, was hurt on Monday.\n\nThe accident involved a marked police motorbike in the convoy, and the police watchdog is now investigating.\n\nKensington Palace said the royal couple were \"deeply concerned and saddened\" and had been in touch with the woman.\n\nThe woman - who is called Irene, according to the palace - was taken to hospital in a critical condition following the collision on Upper Richmond Road in Richmond, south-west London at about 12:50 BST on 17 June.\n\nShe is now in a serious but stable condition in hospital.\n\nA Kensington Palace spokesperson said: \"Their Royal Highnesses have sent their very best wishes to Irene and her family and will stay in touch throughout every stage of her recovery.\"\n\nThe duke and duchess are understood to have sent flowers to the woman.\n\nThe Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said it was investigating the circumstances of the collision after it was referred to them by the Metropolitan Police \"in line with procedure\".\n\nAn IOPC spokesman said: \"Our staff attended the scene of the incident and after careful consideration, we have launched an independent investigation.\n\n\"The investigation is in its very early stages and the officer involved is assisting our inquiries as a witness.\n\n\"Our immediate thoughts are with the injured woman and her family and those affected by the incident.\"\n\nPrince William and Kate were on their way to Windsor for the St George's Chapel service commemorating the Order of the Garter.\n\nIn January, the Duke of Edinburgh, 98, was involved in a car crash while driving near the Queen's Sandringham estate.\n\nPrince Philip flipped his Land Rover Freelander after colliding with a Kia car as he pulled out on to the A149 in Norfolk.", "ITV will no longer commission comedy shows with all-male writers' rooms, the broadcaster's head of comedy has said.\n\nSaskia Schuster said she realised last year that \"an awful lot of my comedy entertainment shows are made up of all-male writing teams\".\n\nShe said: \"Too often the writing room is not sensitively run. It can be aggressive and slightly bullying.\"\n\nShe has now changed ITV's contracts, and female writers have been hired to join shows like ITV2's Celebability.\n\nThere has been \"a significant lack of shows written by women or with women on the writing teams\", she said.\n\nLast year, when reviewing the gender balance of sitcom scripts she was sent, she realised that for every script she received from a female writer, she got five from men.\n\nAfter consulting writers, producers, agents and performers, \"the first thing I did was I changed my terms of commissioning,\" she told Channel 4's Diverse Festival in Bradford on Monday. \"I won't commission anything with an all-male writing team.\"\n\nMs Schuster has launched a scheme called Comedy 50:50 to encourage more female comedy writers. She said female writers struggle because:\n\n\"There can all too often be a sense of tokenism towards the lone female,\" she wrote on the Comedy 50:50 website. \"Or the dominant perception is that the female is there purely so the production can hit quotas.\"\n\nShe has now changed ITV's contracts so any shows that are commissioned or recommissioned \"must aim towards 50:50 gender representation\".\n\nBrona C Titley has been hired to join the Celebability writers' room\n\nComedy 50:50 has set up a database which currently has details of 460 female writers. Many producers had complained that \"there aren't any female writers [or] we don't know where to find them\", she said.\n\nMs Schuster also runs events where she says she \"forces\" her producers to have 10-minute conversations with three female writers. She has set up confidence workshops and is launching a mentoring network next month.\n\nShe has assigned young female writers to shadow shows like Roman sitcom Plebs, which is written by two men, and also hopes to extend the equality target to cover directors and crew members.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The next sensible assertion follows - it's impossible therefore to see how anything like Theresa May's deal gets through Parliament.\n\nAnd impossible, therefore, to see how any of the contenders could keep their promise to take us out of the EU without a cataclysmic event - leaving without a deal, calling an election, or embarking on another referendum.\n\nIn the BBC debate later, and over the next few weeks, we will ask and ask the candidates again if they refuse to answer, how they plan to stick to their promises to take us out of the EU, and what they would do instead if their plan backfires.\n\nBut although the first rule in politics is learn to count, there is a second adage that applies too - politics is meant to be the art of the possible.\n\nIn other words, if they possess real skills and talents, what can they actually get done?\n\nSure, the numbers won't change but a lot will with a new prime minister, even if not for very long. And in times when what seemed sensible assertions have been proven wrong so many times, it would be foolish to underestimate how different the atmosphere might be.\n\nFirst off, if Boris Johnson wins, a Brexiteer will be in charge for the first time - whether you think that's to own the mess, or push for the ultimate win.\n\nThat will matter to Tory MPs who always suspected that Theresa May, hiding behind her red lines, always saw Brexit as a damage limitation exercise. Their hackles were up from the start. They are likely to respond differently to one of their own in charge.\n\nDifferent MPs will also be part of the government too. Many of the collection of grey suits currently in the administration will take their seats up on the back of the green benches - swapping places, it's likely, with more of the Eurosceptics, who will move to the front.\n\nThere is less incentive for Brexiteers to kill a Brexiteers' deal.\n\nTheresa May was not a regular in Westminster's tearooms\n\nIn a rebellious Parliament, under new leadership, the goodies become the baddies, and the baddies become the goodies.\n\nRemainer ministers talk now of swathes of Tories who'd rebel to prevent no deal. But would they really behave as aggressively as the inner core of Brexiteers have done in the last few years? The numbers don't technically change, but different groups become the disgruntled and that will matter, probably a lot.\n\nAnd there is still, just about it seems, a majority in Parliament for leaving the EU, but with a deal. To Downing Street's intense frustration, they always believed that was the case, but couldn't translate that into a win. That was, in part, down to the problem with the policy, and the long-running divisions inside the Tory party.\n\nBut it was also because Theresa May was just not able to win her colleagues round. She used to boast that she was not a creature of Westminster's bars and tearooms, not someone who enjoyed the political game.\n\nBut in this crazy village, that's how arguments are won. Some of her colleagues who did get brief facetime with her even said they left the room feeling less likely to support her. It may not be fair, but persuasion is a real power, and Theresa May didn't have much of it.\n\nDiligence is not a substitute for being able to talk someone round.\n\nA new leader might, I stress, be well able to do that. Not just with MPs in Westminster, but also maybe with the EU.\n\nPolitics is about numbers - yes, but it's about persuasion, alchemy and force of personality. To simply say the numbers won't change excludes the - as yet - unknown power of leadership.\n\nIt is perfectly possible, of course, that the new leader will implode, or within months be overwhelmed by the same obstacles that broke Theresa May.\n\nBut maybe, just maybe not.

Noor said he \"knew in an instant\" that he had made a mistake\n\nA former policeman in the US state of Minnesota has been sentenced to 12 years and six months in prison for fatally shooting an unarmed woman who was trying to report a possible crime.\n\nMohamed Noor shot Justine Ruszczyk Damond as she approached his patrol car to report a possible rape behind her Minneapolis home in July 2017.\n\nHe said the shooting was a mistake.\n\nIn court, Ms Damond's father, John Ruszczyk, called the killing \"an obscene act by an agent of the state\".\n\n\"Justine's death has left me incomplete - it is as if I have lost a limb or a leg,\" he said in an impact statement.\n\nMs Damond was due to marry a month after the shooting\n\nMs Damond's fiancee, Don Damond, read an emotional statement addressed directly to her.\n\n\"Dear Justine, I miss you so much every day, every moment,\" he said. \"I don't understand how such a thing could happen to you and to us.\"\n\nNoor is the first Minnesota police officer to be found guilty of murder for an on-duty shooting.

After seven faultless episodes, the grand finale of the best TV series of 2018 was almost as underwhelming as Eve Polastri's marriage.\n\nAll the delicious ingredients of the previous shows were still there (excellent acting, writing, soundtrack, and directing), but someone tweaked the recipe and served up a bit of dog's dinner with a distinctly hammy whiff.\n\nThe smell lingers well into the opening episode of the new series, which is a little too knowing and, on occasion, close to becoming a pastiche of itself.\n\nVillanelle (Jodie Comer) is too predictable, Eve (Sandra Oh) is too wrung out, and Niko her husband, too needy. Thankfully, Fiona Shaw shows the way with understated class and intelligence, as Eve's boss Carolyn.\n\nFiona Shaw as the ruthless spy chief, Carolyn Martens, who has a tricky relationship with Eve\n\nThe action begins 30 seconds after the last season finished.\n\nM16 agent Eve is standing on the staircase of assassin Villanelle's Parisian apartment. She is holding the bloody knife with which she stabbed the ruthless Russian psycho-killer, who has played her party trick and disappeared into thin air.\n\nSandra Oh says agent Eve Polastri goes to \"a psychologically dark place\" in the second series\n\nFilming the scene where assassin Villanelle (Jodie Comer) tries to hail a taxi, moments after being stabbed\n\nThere's a lot of hyperventilating and many a furrowed brow. That's on screen, and maybe off it as well in the writers' room.\n\nThe daunting task facing Emerald Fennell and her scriptwriting collaborators was how to pick up where Phoebe Waller-Bridge left off and somehow re-juice a dried up drama.\n\nThe mutual obsession between Eve and Villanelle, which is the key dramatic device driving the story, had climaxed at the end of season one in a disappointingly limp stand-off followed by a dull heart-to-heart and a half-baked fight.\n\nIt put the show into intensive care, which is where Villanelle soon fetches up while Eve heads back to London to try to fix her marriage and find a new job.\n\nVillanelle, still in her pyjamas, leaves hospital sooner than she should after being treated for her injuries\n\nThe quality of the acting, our investment in the characters, and some quickly laid new plotlines are enough to entice you to watch the second 40-minute episode.\n\nAt which point Killing Eve returns gloriously to form, with a funny, clever script that starts to rebuild the sexual tension between agent and assassin. The two remain infatuated with each other but now there is some added spice.\n\nVillanelle has competition for Eve's attentions and it ain't coming from Niko. That's the hook, not the mysterious baddies The Twelve, who any one of the protagonists could belong to for all we know - or care. Needless to say, Villanelle still murders people with the regularity and sensitivity of an automated phone call asking if you've been in a car crash, but the killings are a side show.\n\nSean Delaney plays Kenny Stowton, who is a loyal part of Eve's team, and Carolyn's son\n\nThe real drama is in the relationships between the players: Carolyn and her son Kenny (Sean Delaney). Eve and Niko. Villanelle and her handlers. And, of course, between Eve and Villanelle.\n\nWill they get it together? Will one kill the other? Can a cold-blooded murderer become a vulnerable, compassionate human being?\n\nIn other words, the same issues that kept us on tenterhooks in season one.\n\nWill season two be better and succeed in delivering its punchline? You can find out later on Saturday when the entire series drops on the BBC iPlayer.\n\nI've seen the first four and my hopes are high. Killing Eve is top quality television. And not just from a British standpoint, it ranks with the very best shows coming out of Hollywood. It's no surprise the head of Netflix has cited it as the one title he truly covets.\n\nThat it is superbly made is a given in these golden days of box office box sets.\n\nBut that's not what makes it stand out; it is not the reason that Killing Eve will sit alongside Friends and Breaking Bad as an all-time TV classic. It is the balance it strikes between bone-dry humour reminiscent of the best of early James Bond, and an exploration of identity, sexuality, and isolation in the second decade of the 21st Century.\n\nFiona Shaw, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jodie Comer all won Baftas for Killing Eve\n\nFor this, much of the credit must go to Luke Jennings, the Observer's dance critic. For Villanelle is his creation. He originally self-published the story as a series of online novellas before it was picked up by a canny TV producer. Once it had been commissioned for telly Jennings had his work cut out to do his day job while collaborating with Waller-Bridge on the television scripts, \"I felt like Stalin, planning murder all day and watching Swan Lake in the evening,\" he wrote in the Observer last year.\n\nHis background in ballet provides an interesting insight into his creation.\n\nThe juxtaposition between beauty and the beast is what makes Killing Eve so compelling. As does the not-always merry dance he takes us on. You could argue that Jennings has written the most brilliant, exquisitely choreographed, blood-soaked pas de deux.", "Thomas Dunn was convicted following a five-day trial at Dundee Sheriff Court\n\nA man has been found guilty of putting a 13-month-old girl in a tumble dryer.\n\nThomas Dunn claimed he had only \"assisted\" the toddler, saying the child had been climbing into the machine herself.\n\nThe 25-year-old, from Hamilton, said he did not fully close the machine door on the child, but the dryer had activated and started rotating.\n\nDunn was also found guilty at Dundee Sheriff Court of causing fractures to the child's skull during an assault.\n\nHe was convicted of culpable and reckless conduct by placing the child in the dryer and closing the door, causing the machine to activate.\n\nDuring evidence the court was told that the incident happened sometime between the end of 2017 and the start of last year in Arbroath.\n\nOn the separate charge of assault, Dunn was convicted of striking the child on another occasion on the head and body, causing severe injury.\n\nSheriff Alastair Brown told Dunn he \"must have hit that little girl extremely hard at least twice\" in order to inflict what were potentially life-threatening injuries.\n\nHe said it was \"only by her good fortune and perhaps yours\" that Dunn was not tried at the High Court on a charge of murder.\n\nGiving evidence in his own defence, Dunn claimed he had not \"pushed\" or \"squashed\" the baby into the machine but had \"tucked her leg into it\" after she had climbed in herself.\n\nHe said: \"I didn't know the switch was on, it would've been the pin that activated the safety switch when it touched it.\n\n\"She was already climbing into it and I tucked her leg in. I closed the door but not fully, it wasn't like properly shut.\n\n\"It wasn't long, it wasn't like minutes she was in it.\"\n\nProsecutor Nicola Gillespie asked Dunn: \"Why on earth did you do that, assist, tuck, whatever you want to call it, that child into a tumble dryer?\"\n\nHe replied: \"I don't know, it was a bad judgement call.\"\n\nEarlier in the trial, the child's mother told the jury the toddler was not strong enough to be able to climb into the machine herself.\n\nAsked about Mr Dunn's demeanour, the woman replied: \"There was just no emotion.

The crew of the USS Chancellorsville had a close-up view of the Admiral Vinogradov (video from 2019)\n\nA Russian warship and a US warship have come close to collision in the western Pacific Ocean, with each side blaming the other for the incident.\n\nRussia's Pacific Fleet said the cruiser USS Chancellorsville crossed just 50m (160ft) in front of the destroyer Admiral Vinogradov at 06:35 Moscow time (03:35 GMT).\n\nIt was forced to perform \"emergency manoeuvring\" to avoid the US ship.\n\nBut US forces blamed the Russians, claiming their ship was responsible.\n\nUS Seventh Fleet Commander Clayton Doss called the Russians \"unsafe and unprofessional\", saying their destroyer \"made an unsafe manoeuvre against USS Chancellorsville\". He dismissed the Russian allegation as \"propaganda\".\n\nAnother US Navy image showed the Russian destroyer Admiral Vinogradov (l) close to the USS Chancellorsville\n\nAdmiral Vinogradov came within 50 to 100 feet (15m-30m) of the USS Chancellorsville in the Philippine Sea, the US said.\n\nThe Russian Pacific Fleet meanwhile said the incident took place in the southeast of the East China Sea, and added they had sent a message of protest to the US ship's commanders.\n\nIn a statement it said the US warship had \"suddenly changed direction and crossed the path of Admiral Vinogradov just 50m away,\" forcing the Russian crew to make a quick manoeuvre.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

including the Miami Open in March - as well as the US Open women's doubles title last year.\n\nThose achievements were important steps on a sharp climb leading to this stunning success in Paris.\n\nBarty had the greater experience of the two finalists and it showed in a confident performance which did not allow Vondrousova to play with the variety she had previously shown.\n\nVondrousova, like she did against British number one Johanna Konta in the semi-finals, started nervously - but this time there was no chance of a recovery.\n\nBarty's aggressive approach paid off as she took three of nine break points to clinch the opening set in just 29 minutes, the first which Vondrousova had dropped in the tournament.\n\nBarty broke again in the first game of the second set, then staved off a break point to hold a lengthy service game and maintain her advantage.\n\nShe continued to read her teenage opponent's game throughout the second set, her neat footwork - on what used to be considered her weakest surface - enabling her to answer any question offered by Vondrousova.\n\nThat was illustrated in what proved to be the final game, Barty's relentless returning allowing her to hit four winners as she turned a 15-40 deficit into a match-winning break.\n\nAnother new name on a women's Grand Slam trophy\n\nWhile a French Open final contested by Barty and Vondrousova might have seemed unlikely at the outset of the tournament, it was further proof there is no shortage of talented young women ready to win the biggest titles.\n\nBarty is the ninth different female champion in the last 10 Grand Slams.\n\nWith a combined age of 42, they were the youngest pair of female Grand Slam finalists since the 2008 French Open when 20-year-old Ana Ivanovic beat 22-year-old Dinara Safina.\n\nAnd whoever triumphed in Paris meant five of the WTA Tour's seven biggest tournaments so far in 2019 have been won by players aged 23 or under.\n\nGoing into the final, the average age of all tournament champions this year was 23.6 years -

There is illegal activity going on and the Scottish government is absolutely right in taking whatever action is appropriate to stop it.\n\n\"It is perfectly visible to both governments because all the ships are fitted with a monitoring system by law. So everybody will know exactly who is there and if it is likely that they are fishing or not.\"\n\nHe believes the Scottish government has to take a hard line on the dispute ahead of Brexit, when the UK will be responsible for its own waters.\n\nHe said: \"This territory is established in international law. What they are doing is illegal.\n\n\"In the whole context of approaching a time when we will be an independent sovereign coastal state, with complete control over all our own waters, then it's time to demonstrate that we are prepared to put our money where our mouth is.\n\n\"Under Brexit we will have sovereignty over UK territorial waters which will include this area. Any access to those waters will be at the behest of the governments of the land.\n\n\"In my view it would be very unwise of Ireland to pick a fight when just over the horizon there is a much broader swathe of arrangements to be made.\"\n\nBertie Armstrong from the SFF believes it is a black-and-white case of illegality\n\nA spokeswoman from the Scottish government said: \"Irish vessels or any non-UK vessels for that matter have never been allowed to fish in this way in the UK's territorial sea around Rockall and, despite undertaking extensive discussions with the Irish authorities on the matter, it is disappointing that this activity continues.\n\n\"There has actually been an increase in that illegal activity and, with the Rockall fishery season nearly upon us, it is our duty and obligation to defend the interests of Scottish fisheries and ensure compliance with well-established international law.\n\n\"We have provided an opportunity for the Irish government to warn their fishers not to fish illegally and hope that this opportunity is taken up as this will of course obviate the need to take enforcement action - which would otherwise be implemented to protect our fisheries interests.\"\n\nEnforcement action might involve patrol boats from the Scottish government going alongside any vessel believed to be breaking the law and, if necessary, making arrests.\n\nIrish ministers have described Scottish government comments as \"unwarranted\".\n\nThe Irish government's minister for agriculture, food and the marine, Michael Creed said he was trying to, \"avoid a situation whereby Irish fishing vessels who continue to fish for haddock, squid and other species in the 12-mile area around Rockall are under the unwarranted threat of 'enforcement action' by the Scottish government\".\n\nHe added: \"However, following this sustained unilateral action by them, I have no option but to put our fishing industry on notice of the stated intention of the Scottish government.\"\n\nThe Rockall fishery is a multi-million pound annual fishery, with several species of fish including haddock, monkfish and squid.", "More than 1,000 people have been recognised in the Queen's Birthday Honours list.\n\nThe majority of recipients are people who have undertaken outstanding work in their communities.

After seven faultless episodes, the grand finale of the best TV series of 2018 was almost as underwhelming as Eve Polastri's marriage.\n\nAll the delicious ingredients of the previous shows were still there (excellent acting, writing, soundtrack, and directing), but someone tweaked the recipe and served up a bit of dog's dinner with a distinctly hammy whiff.\n\nThe smell lingers well into the opening episode of the new series, which is a little too knowing and, on occasion, close to becoming a pastiche of itself.\n\nVillanelle (Jodie Comer) is too predictable, Eve (Sandra Oh) is too wrung out, and Niko her husband, too needy. Thankfully, Fiona Shaw shows the way with understated class and intelligence, as Eve's boss Carolyn.\n\nFiona Shaw as the ruthless spy chief, Carolyn Martens, who has a tricky relationship with Eve\n\nThe action begins 30 seconds after the last season finished.\n\nM16 agent Eve is standing on the staircase of assassin Villanelle's Parisian apartment. She is holding the bloody knife with which she stabbed the ruthless Russian psycho-killer, who has played her party trick and disappeared into thin air.\n\nSandra Oh says agent Eve Polastri goes to \"a psychologically dark place\" in the second series\n\nFilming the scene where assassin Villanelle (Jodie Comer) tries to hail a taxi, moments after being stabbed\n\nThere's a lot of hyperventilating and many a furrowed brow. That's on screen, and maybe off it as well in the writers' room.\n\nThe daunting task facing Emerald Fennell and her scriptwriting collaborators was how to pick up where Phoebe Waller-Bridge left off and somehow re-juice a dried up drama.\n\nThe mutual obsession between Eve and Villanelle, which is the key dramatic device driving the story, had climaxed at the end of season one in a disappointingly limp stand-off followed by a dull heart-to-heart and a half-baked fight.\n\nIt put the show into intensive care, which is where Villanelle soon fetches up while Eve heads back to London to try to fix her marriage and find a new job.\n\nVillanelle, still in her pyjamas, leaves hospital sooner than she should after being treated for her injuries\n\nThe quality of the acting, our investment in the characters, and some quickly laid new plotlines are enough to entice you to watch the second 40-minute episode.\n\nAt which point Killing Eve returns gloriously to form, with a funny, clever script that starts to rebuild the sexual tension between agent and assassin. The two remain infatuated with each other but now there is some added spice.\n\nVillanelle has competition for Eve's attentions and it ain't coming from Niko. That's the hook, not the mysterious baddies The Twelve, who any one of the protagonists could belong to for all we know - or care. Needless to say, Villanelle still murders people with the regularity and sensitivity of an automated phone call asking if you've been in a car crash, but the killings are a side show.\n\nSean Delaney plays Kenny Stowton, who is a loyal part of Eve's team, and Carolyn's son\n\nThe real drama is in the relationships between the players: Carolyn and her son Kenny (Sean Delaney). Eve and Niko. Villanelle and her handlers. And, of course, between Eve and Villanelle.\n\nWill they get it together? Will one kill the other? Can a cold-blooded murderer become a vulnerable, compassionate human being?\n\nIn other words, the same issues that kept us on tenterhooks in season one.\n\nWill season two be better and succeed in delivering its punchline? You can find out later on Saturday when the entire series drops on the BBC iPlayer.\n\nI've seen the first four and my hopes are high. Killing Eve is top quality television. And not just from a British standpoint, it ranks with the very best shows coming out of Hollywood. It's no surprise the head of Netflix has cited it as the one title he truly covets.\n\nThat it is superbly made is a given in these golden days of box office box sets.\n\nBut that's not what makes it stand out; it is not the reason that Killing Eve will sit alongside Friends and Breaking Bad as an all-time TV classic. It is the balance it strikes between bone-dry humour reminiscent of the best of early James Bond, and an exploration of identity, sexuality, and isolation in the second decade of the 21st Century.\n\nFiona Shaw, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jodie Comer all won Baftas for Killing Eve\n\nFor this, much of the credit must go to Luke Jennings, the Observer's dance critic. For Villanelle is his creation. He originally self-published the story as a series of online novellas before it was picked up by a canny TV producer.

You used some sort of object to beat his arms.\n\n\"Dylan would have been in agony, bewildered and terrified. Slowly his condition would have deteriorated before your eyes, going from screaming and crying to curling up and trying to avoid movement.\"\n\nMrs Justice Carr said Kennedy's failure to call an ambulance for his son, whom he had only met for the first time 10 weeks earlier, deprived him of any hope of survival.\n\nKennedy, who described Dylan as his \"little bestie\" in court, told an \"elaborate web of lies\" and his story \"chopped and changed with the wind\", she said.\n\n\"The truth has now caught up with you,\" she added.\n\nDylan had five different types of drug in his body when he died, including cocaine and heroin\n\nAs well as having heroin and cocaine in his system, Dylan also had multiple fractures, lacerations to his liver and substantial abdominal injuries that would have left him in significant pain.\n\nBut Det Ch Insp Ally White, from the East Midlands Special Operations Unit, said three nationally-recognised experts all agreed Dylan's \"catastrophic\" injuries could not be explained by \"a simple fall\".\n\nIn a statement, Dylan's mother said he was \"the most perfect little boy you could ever meet\".\n\nShe said: \"He had a smile as bright as the sun, his eyes were crystals like the stars above and his love was the best feeling in the world.\n\n\"Knowing I won't get to hold my baby again leaves a pain like no other.\"\n\nPolice had raided Kennedy's flat on 18 October - two month's before Dylan's murder - and found heroin, cocaine and cannabis as well as a phone, scales and packaging used for drug dealing.\n\nA serious case review by the Northamptonshire Safeguarding Children's board about Dylan's death is expected to be published next month.\n\nThe boy had only known his father for 10 weeks before his death\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "On 6 June 1944, British, US and Canadian forces invaded the coast of Normandy in northern France.\n\nThe landings were the first stage of Operation Overlord - the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe - and aimed to bring an end to World War Two.\n\nBy night-time, around 156,000 Allied troops had arrived in Normandy, despite challenging weather and fierce German defences.\n\nAt the end of D-Day, the Allies had established a foothold in France and within 11 months Nazi Germany was defeated.\n\nHere are 10 things you may not have known about the operation:\n\nAs early as 1942, the BBC launched a bogus appeal for photographs and postcards from the coast of Europe, from Norway to the Pyrenees.\n\nIt was actually a way of gathering intelligence on suitable landing beaches and Normandy was settled on.\n\nMillions of photos ended up being sent to the War Office and, with the help of the French Resistance and air reconnaissance, military bosses were able to target the best landing spots for D-Day.\n\nThe remains of the D-Day \"Mulberry\" artificial harbour at Arromanches, Normandy\n\nThe Allies put a lot of effort into trying to convince the Germans that the invasion was going to be near Calais, not Normandy.\n\nThey invented phantom field armies based in Kent as part of their D-Day deception plan, named Operation Fortitude.\n\nThey built dummy equipment - including inflatable tanks - parachuted dummies, used double agents and released controlled leaks of misinformation which led the Germans to believe the Allies were going to invade via the Pas-de-Calais and Norway.\n\nThe Germans took the bait so much that even after D-Day they held many of their best troops in the Calais area expecting a second invasion.\n\nBy 1944 more than two million troops from more than 12 countries were in Britain preparing for the invasion.\n\nOn D-Day, Allied forces consisted primarily of US, British and Canadian troops but also included Australian, Belgian, Czech, Dutch, French, Greek, New Zealand, Norwegian, Rhodesian [present-day Zimbabwe] and Polish naval, air and ground support.\n\nA French poster from WW2, the translation for which reads: All Together, for a Single Victory\n\nThe officers organising the operation were very particular about the timing of D-Day.\n\nThey wanted a full moon with a spring tide so they could land at dawn when the tide was about half way in - but those kind of conditions meant there were only a few days that could work.\n\nThey chose to invade on 5 June, but ended up delaying by 24 hours because of bad weather.\n\nIt was Group Captain James Martin Stagg who made the vital forecast and persuaded General Eisenhower to change the date.\n\nIn fact, the forecast was so bad that the German commander in Normandy, Erwin Rommel, felt so sure there wouldn't be an invasion he went home to give his wife a pair of shoes for her 50th birthday.\n\nHe was in Germany when the news came of the invasion.\n• None 4,400from the combined allied forces died on the day\n\nWhen the D-Day forces landed, Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was asleep.\n\nNone of his generals dared order reinforcements without his permission, and no-one dared wake him.\n\nCrucial hours were lost in the battle to hold Normandy.\n\nWhen Hitler did finally wake up, at around 10am, he was excited at news of the invasion - he thought Germany would easily defeat the Allies.\n\nWhile America formed the biggest national contingent, the combined force of Commonwealth service personnel - mostly British and Canadian - was greater.\n\nOf the 156,000 men who landed in France on 6 June, 73,000 were American, and 83,000 British or Canadian. The Commonwealth naval contingent was twice that of the Americans.\n\nThere were five beaches that were chosen for the operation, codenamed, from east to west, Sword, Juno, Gold, Omaha, Utah.\n\nCasualties varied widely - on \"Bloody Omaha\", where around 4,000 men were killed or wounded, one US unit landing in the first wave lost 90% of its men.\n\nOn Gold Beach, by contrast, casualty rates were around 80% lower.\n\nTroops of the US 7th Corps wading ashore on Utah Beach\n\nThe fighting during the Battle of Normandy, which followed D-Day, was as bloody as it had been in the trenches of World War One.\n\nCasualty rates were slightly higher than they were during a typical day during the Battle of the Somme in 1916.\n\nThe vibration of HMS Belfast's guns firing during D-Day was so powerful it actually cracked the crew's toilets.\n\nHaving been given his top-secret mission to attack the Merville battery on D-Day, Terence Otway had to be certain his men wouldn't spill the beans ahead of 6 June 1944.\n\nHe sent 30 of the prettiest members of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, dressed in civilian clothes, into village pubs near where his soldiers were training.\n\nThey were asked to do all they could to discover the men's mission. None of the men gave anything away.", "Donald Trump has rowed back on his remarks that the NHS should form part of a future trade deal between the UK and US.\n\nThe comment, made during his state visit to the UK, prompted a backlash from Conservative leadership candidates, Labour and trade unions.\n\nBut on Wednesday, the US president told ITV's Good Morning Britain: \"I don't see it being on the table.\"\n\nHe added that the NHS was something he would \"not consider part of trade\".\n\nCurrent rules allow foreign firms to bid for NHS contracts and a subsidiary of the US company United Health is among private groups which have already successfully done so.\n\nSome, though, fear the health service is vulnerable to creeping privatisation or a weakening of the tight control the NHS currently keeps on drug prices if US firms get greater access.\n\nAt a press conference in London on Tuesday, Mr Trump was asked whether he believed the NHS should be part of a trade deal between the UK and US after Brexit.\n\nHe told reporters: \"When you're dealing with trade everything is on the table, so the NHS or anything else, or a lot more than that.\n\n\"But everything will be on the table, absolutely.\"\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. \"Everything is on the table\" in future UK-US trade negotiations, President Trump says\n\nThe comments led to fierce criticism from a number of MPs, including from Health Secretary and leadership hopeful Matt Hancock.\n\nHe had already condemned similar comments from the US Ambassador to the UK Woody Johnson, and tweeted: \"Dear Mr President. The NHS isn't on the table in trade talks - and never will be. Not on my watch.\"\n\nFormer Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab said: \"The NHS is not for sale to any country and never would be if I was prime minister.\"\n\nAnd International Development Secretary Rory Stewart said he would not be \"offering up\" the NHS in any trade deal.\n\nLabour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who spoke at a protest rally against President Trump moments before the president's press conference, also tweeted: \"Our NHS is not up for sale\".\n\nIn his GMB interview, the president appeared to backtrack\n\nBut standing in for Theresa May at Prime Minister's Questions, Cabinet Office Minister David Lidington said the NHS \"is not and will not be up for sale\".\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Rebecca Long Bailey and David Lidington on any NHS role in a future US trade deal\n\nDavid Henig, former trade negotiator for the UK government - and now UK director of the European Centre For International Political Economy - said Mr Trump was \"right the first time\" and \"everything is potentially up for grabs in a trade agreement\".\n\nHe told BBC Radio 4's Today programme it would be up to the government to decide which NHS services could be provided by private suppliers and which would be served by the public sector.\n\nBut, if an element was opened up to private tenders, \"the US and other countries would want access\".\n\nMr Henig said the biggest issue between the countries over healthcare was the price of drugs, as the NHS pays significantly less to pharmaceutical companies than the US.\n\nHe said: \"We should be specific on what we are prepared to give and what we want to seek in trade agreements. So far, we have been pretty vague.\n\n\"We should be publishing, as soon as possible, a consultation document saying, 'this is what we are prepared to talk about in regards to the NHS, this is what we are not prepared to talk about in terms of trade', so everybody is entirely clear.\"\n\nAbout 7% of the English health budget goes to private providers. There are different contracting arrangements in other parts of the UK.\n\nBBC Health editor Hugh Pym says the head of NHS England, Simon Stevens, has called for new legislation to drop the requirement for health commissioners to put contracts out to tender.\n\nBut, he adds, if the government decides to do this it's not clear whether that might be overridden by the demands of a trade deal in the future.", "For any prime minister, handling a president like Donald Trump is like trying to hold on to a Ming vase walking across a recently polished, slippery parquet floor.\n\nHe's a leader who glories in the unpredictable, who seems to wake up every morning wondering what controversy he can provoke, what headlines he can create.\n\nHis reason for being is therefore from the start in contrast with the stiff choreography of a state visit.\n\nBut No 10 will be relieved that the formalities with the PM today were free of mishap. And, as Theresa May readies herself for the exit, Donald Trump, who has definitely embarrassed her in the past, didn't repeat that habit today.\n\nInstead, he spoke warmly of her, suggesting that history may judge her much more kindly than the manner of her departure suggests.\n\nBut some of the most notable remarks were not related to the prime minister in any case, but to what's next.\n\nWhether you are overjoyed about Theresa May leaving or not, it is telling that the three names Donald Trump mentioned immediately when asked about the next leader were Boris Johnson, Jeremy Hunt, and Michael Gove, categorising them deliberately or not as the three most likely candidates to win the keys to No 10.\n\nAll three have been invited to meet Donald Trump. You wouldn't expect the US president to invite the football team of candidates for the job to spend time with him on this visit. But it's notable that neither Sajid Javid nor Matt Hancock - both cabinet contenders - received invites to talk or to meet. Nor did one of the other Brexiteer frontrunners, Dominic Raab.\n\nOf course, smart candidates could even turn the lack of invitation to their advantage. Donald Trump won't of course have a say in this race and he is such a Marmite politician that chumming up to him is not necessarily an advantage for any of the wannabes.\n\nBut the invite list does tell us something about the state of the race right now. And in the next 24 hours we'll see whom, beyond Nigel Farage, the president actually meets one-on-one.\n\nThe other striking note was not about Theresa May either, even though, as her last big appearance alongside a foreign leader it was, in a way, a very grand leaving do. Instead, it was the Labour leader who featured.\n\nIt's not exactly surprising that the two men would not be bosom buddies. Politically they have a greater distance between them than the width of the Atlantic.\n\nMr Trump revealed not just (no real surprise) that he doesn't think much of Jeremy Corbyn, apt when Jeremy Corbyn doesn't think much of him either. He also revealed that Mr Corbyn had asked him to meet and that he, after considering his request, had decided not to do so.\n\nThe Labour leader has always said that he is interested in dialogue. But his position does appear rather curious.\n\nMr Corbyn chose very publicly not to attend the dinner for Mr Trump last night at the Queen's invitiation. He then led - very publicly - the protests against the president today. Yet we now know that he had actually asked for a meeting of his own, but was then rebuffed.\n\nDiplomacy, or the lack of it, can be a complicated business. We've learnt that from observing Donald Trump and Theresa May over the last few years.\n\nBut those pitfalls won't disappear when the prime minister does. Now Jeremy Corbyn and the contenders for the Tory crown are all too aware of that.", "Nigel Farage says he will not attend a committee investigating whether he broke European Parliament rules by accepting funding from Leave campaigner Arron Banks.\n\nThe Brexit Party leader has said he did not declare the £450,000 sum to the assembly because at the time, he was about to leave politics and had been seeking a new life in the US.\n\nHe said he had only been given 24 hours' notice to attend a meeting of the committee on Wednesday, which he branded a \"kangaroo court\".\n\nThe payments from Mr Banks were revealed by a Channel 4 News investigation last month.\n\nItems paid for by him included Mr Farage's London home, his car and trips to the US to meet Donald Trump.\n\nThe committee had invited Mr Farage to appear in person to discuss his finances, but said it would have to be on Wednesday to fit it in before the end of the parliamentary session.\n\nHe was not under any obligation to appear before the committee, which will examine the case before advising European Parliament President Antonio Tajani.\n\nMEPs found to have acted improperly can be reprimanded, their parliamentary allowance can be withheld or they can be banned from some activities.\n\nArron Banks has said he had \"willingly helped Farage and was honoured to do so\", adding: \"This was all designed to help Nigel get out of politics.\"\n\nMr Farage insisted he did not receive \"any private money for political purposes\".\n\n\"This committee would better spend its time investigating the waste of public money by well-known MEPs,\" he added.\n\nMr Farage has been a member of the European Parliament since 1999.\n\nHe led UKIP in the run-up to the 2016 EU referendum, campaigning alongside Leave.EU, of which Mr Banks was a major financier.\n\nMr Farage stepped down as leader later the same year, but remained as an MEP before launching The Brexit Party in March this year.", "Amazon executive Jeff Wilke said the drone had been engineered to minimise noise\n\nAmazon has said it will use drones to deliver packages to customers “within months”.\n\nIt unveiled its latest iteration at a conference in Las Vegas, touting the machine's ability to spot obstacles such as people, dogs, and clotheslines.\n\nAmazon executive Jeff Wilke said the drone would be able to travel 15 miles to carry packages weighing 5lbs (2.3kg) or less.\n\nMr Wilke did not say where in the world the drone deliveries would initially take place, or precisely when.\n\nHowever, the US Federal Aviation Administration told the BBC it had granted Amazon a permit to operate the drone in the US.\n\n\"The FAA issued a Special Airworthiness Certificate to Amazon Prime Air allowing the company to operate its MK27 unmanned aircraft for research and development and crew training in authorized flight areas,\" the regulator said.\n\n\"Amazon Prime Air plans to use the aircraft to establish a package delivery operation in the United States. This certificate is valid for one year and is eligible for renewal.\"\n\nThe prototype drone has \"shrouds\" to act as protection from its propellers, which double up as wings\n\nIn the past, Amazon has been accused of using the promise of drone delivery as a headline-grabber to push its publicity around its Prime membership service.\n\nBut in December 2016, the company ran an apparently successful trial in Cambridge, UK. A package was delivered, by drone, in 13 minutes.\n\nOn stage during the firm’s “Re:Mars” conference - an event highlighting the firm's work in machine learning, robotics, automation and space - Amazon displayed the drone that will be used.\n\nIt uses six rotors, and “sees” what’s around it using a combination of data from visual, thermal and ultrasonic sensors.\n\nThis YouTube post cannot be displayed in your browser.

One aspect that might affect societal acceptance could be noise, said Carolina Milanesi, from Creative Strategies.\n\n“I'm sure that it will be a concern, although it might not be that different from the noise from a delivery truck arriving at your home.\n\n“The only difference is that the drone might be closer to a person's home if it's landing in the garden.\"\n\nMr Wilke said the drone’s design had \"been optimized to minimize intrusive, high-frequency sounds”.\n\nDo you have more information about this or any other technology story?

She won her first WTA title at 17, in just her second Tour-level event.\n\nShe has won more matches than any other female player since this year's Australian Open, including victories over big names such as Simona Halep and Jelena Ostapenko, and is yet to drop a set on her way to the last four.\n\nHowever, Konta had a three-set victory in the Rome quarter-finals last month.\n\n\"It is going to be very tough, I just can't wait to play again,\" Vondrousova said after her win.\n\nKonta's resurgence on the clay has been one which few people would have predicted at the start of the clay season, when she was ranked 47th in the world.\n\nThe former world number four has shown her pedigree on grass and hard surfaces, but had never won a main-draw match on the Paris clay until this year.\n\nSigns of her improved fortunes were evident as she reached two WTA finals at the Morocco Open and Italian Open - and that form has continued at Roland Garros.\n\nNow she has won 15 matches on the surface in 2019, meaning only Martic stands alongside her in terms of clay-court victories on the tour this year.\n\nLinking up with new coach Dimitri Zavialoff at the end of last year has paid dividends, Konta once again showing increased trust in her ability to cause opponents problems with her hard-hitting game.\n\nYet, although Konta's confidence has been evident throughout the tournament, the manner of this 71-minute victory against someone of Stephens' pedigree left those on half-full Chatrier murmuring with surprise.\n\nStephens, who won the 2017 US Open as well as reaching the final here last year, was rated as the favourite coming into Tuesday's quarter-final, with former Grand Slam champions Martina Navratilova and Lindsay Davenport backing the American.\n\nKonta came under immediate pressure in the opening game of the match, needing to see off a break point and come through a lengthy deuce to hold serve after eight minutes.\n\nThat proved pivotal as Konta swatted her lacklustre opponent aside from then on.\n\nThe Briton's aggressive approach did the damage as she ended up hitting 25 winners and six aces on her way to taking 87% of first-serve points.\n\nStephens, usually nimble around the court, had no answers to Konta's power and precision.\n\nKonta broke Stephens' serve for a 3-1 lead, claiming the next three games to win the opening set in just 33 minutes.\n\nShe continued to dominate in the second set, not dropping a point on serve until she produced a double fault in the final game.\n\nBy that time it mattered little, the Briton resetting to take victory when Stephens pushed a return inches wide of the line.\n\nPerhaps a sign of Konta's renewed belief was evident in her relatively understated celebration: a simple turn to her coach Zavialoff and boyfriend Jackson Wade wearing a wide grin, before raising both arms aloft as she took the acclaim of the crowd.\n\nKonta's path to the latter stages - and a potential chance to become the first Briton to win Roland Garros since Sue Barker in 1976 - has opened up following an unpredictable women's tournament.\n\nAfter beating Stephens, Konta will face an opponent in Vondrousova who, like the Briton, reached the Roland Garros quarter-finals for the first time.\n\nStephens was one of only three top-10 seeded players to make the women's quarter-finals, along with Romania's defending champion Halep and Australian eighth seed Ashleigh Barty.\n\nFormer world number one Halep and Barty will meet in the other semi-final - if they beat 17-year-old American Amanda Anisimova and 14th seed Madison Keys respectively in their quarter-finals on Wednesday.\n\n'The best I've seen Konta play' - what they said\n\nBBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller: \"The entire performance was breathtaking. Everything about Konta's performance was majestic. Sloane Stephens could do nothing on Konta's serve. She had the stuffing knocked out of her. That's the best I have ever seen Konta play.\"\n\nFormer world number five Daniela Hantuchova for BBC Radio 5 Live: \"Konta couldn't ask for a better match and if she keeps playing like this I don't see anyone that can stop her. Simona Halep was my pick to win the trophy before the tournament but the way Johanna played it will be really interesting.\"\n\nRadio 5 Live tennis commentator Naomi Cavaday: \"I felt for sure every set would be tight and ultra-competitive but Johanna was too good for Stephens. I think Konta can take out Halep if she plays like that. That was phenomenal.\"\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "Jussie Smollett will not be returning to Empire, the show's co-creator Lee Daniels has now confirmed.\n\nResponding to claims that writers were preparing for Smollett's comeback, Daniels tweeted: \"Jussie will NOT be returning to Empire.\"\n\nThe actor was accused of staging a racist and homophobic attack on himself in January - which he's always denied.\n\nBut since the incident there's been speculation over his future on the show.\n\nDaniels's tweet is the first public confirmation that Smollett will definitely not be coming back for the sixth and final season.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

The BBC's Emma Jane Kirby met a US veteran and two French civilians.\n\nWhat 96-year-old Jake Larson remembers most about D-Day is the feeling of exhaustion. Well, the exhaustion and his first taste of champagne.\n\n\"Let me tell you the story!\" he says from his home in California as we chat on the phone. \"You'll love this story!\"\n\nSeventy-five years on and Jake's vintage tales of war are still as effervescent and sparkling as the bubbly he used to knock back in Normandy. For 65, perhaps for 70 years, he refused to speak about his experiences on the French coast - when he left the US Army in 1945, he was demobbed with \"the shakes\", he says. But when he did allow the cork to pop, suppressed memories frothed and spilled over in Technicolor.\n\nJake had joined the National Guard in Minnesota aged 15. He'd lied about his age in the hope he'd get paid there and then - he'd only signed up because he'd wanted 10 cents for a cinema ticket to watch the latest Gene Autry film with his cousin. But national guardsmen were among the first to be conscripted into the US Army, and by 1944 Jake was a sergeant. When someone found out he could type, he was quickly shipped to the US Army's HQ in England to become a clerk, typing up the loading orders for the Normandy invasion plans of the US V Corps.\n\n\"Man, I was so tired!\" he remembers. \"No-one had slept on the 4th or 5th [of June] and the seas were so rough we were turning and turning and everyone was sick. But on 6 June, maybe around 06:30, it was time to go in and here we were landing at Omaha beach with the water up to our necks and machine-gun fire on all sides. It was a shooting gallery.\"\n\nThe sea, he says, was red with the blood of soldiers who had stepped on mines and he recalls having to push floating bodies out of his path to shore. After scrambling up the beach, he hid trembling behind a small sandbank and trying to calm his nerves with a cigarette, he asked the soldier crouched behind him for a match. When the man didn't reply, Jake nudged him and saw there was no head under the helmet.\n\nTime just evaporated that day, Jake reflects. He remembers setting up a command post by the cliffs, digging himself a foxhole to sleep in and by seven o'clock that night he was dropping with fatigue. That's when he was told by his commanding officer that he was to be in charge of the night shift.\n\nThe next morning - Jake's longed-for bedtime - the guns roared again and more tanks rolled up the beach.\n\n\"I couldn't sleep with that noise!\" he protests. \"I just couldn't sleep and man, I really needed to rest!\"\n\nIt was the locals who helped Jake out. As he stumbled away from the beach towards the village, French civilians rushed out to greet the liberators, hugging the soldiers and plying them with Normandy cheeses and other local fare.\n\n\"There was Camembert!\" delights Jake. \"Am I even pronouncing that right? It was delicious, that Camembert cheese, but I didn't know how you ate that thing - I was just a farm boy from Minnesota! Then they gave us champagne! Wow! Man! Did you ever drink champagne?\"\n\n\"I used to drink a whole bottle of that champagne every morning! We were out in the open and they (the Germans) were shooting at us and we were shooting back - and the noise! And I needed to sleep! Well that champagne was quite a thing - you drink a bottle of that and you could fall asleep! It was amazing stuff!\"\n\nAt her home in Angers, 90-year-old Thérèse le Chevalier claps her hands together in delight when I tell her about Jake and his champagne cure for insomnia.\n\nBack in June 1944, Therese was a 15-year-old boarding school pupil, but when a cousin working for the Resistance hinted to her mother that something significant was about to happen on the Normandy coast, Thérèse's mother ordered her home to Bernières-sur-Mer, the stretch of coastline known to the Allies as Juno Beach.\n\nAs Jake Larson would have been clutching his stomach and vomiting in the rolling transport ship as he waited to land at Omaha Beach, Therese was hunkered down with her parents and little sister in a trench at the back of her yard, waiting for the ground to stop trembling with the bombing and gunfire. And as soon as it did, they went into the street.\n\n\"The joy! The amazing feeling when we saw all those soldiers!\" she exclaims. \"The first were Canadians and some had their faces blacked up to avoid being spotted. And there were all kinds of weapons coming by, tanks and jeeps!\"\n\nLater, while her parents were busy, she and her little sister sneaked away to look at the sea and were startled to find it packed with boats sporting silver anti-aircraft kite balloons.\n\n\"It's strange,\" she reflects. \"But I don't remember seeing corpses or anyone injured on the beach. My 15-year-old self did not understand death, did not believe in death, so maybe I just blocked it out.\"\n\nShe does remember being chased away by soldiers who warned her that the beach was dangerous and there were things going on there which were not fit for a child to see.\n\nBut for the most part, Thérèse sparkles as she speaks of her memories of D-Day and her joy is absolutely infectious.\n\n\"Everyone was in the street,\" she tells me. \"They were so happy because first of all we were liberated, we felt free, but really because we were alive! That whole day was a wonderful feeling of life.\"\n\nTherese's mother opened up her house to the soldiers to welcome them and to try to warm them up.\n\n\"Of course, we pitied those poor things,\" Thérèse says, her hands cupping her face. \"Because they were all wet from walking in the sea - oh, we felt so sorry for them! My mother boiled water all day for their tea and we made them coffee.\" She shakes her finger, correcting herself. \"Well we didn't have coffee by then, of course, I think it was barley we gave them.\"\n\nThérèse shows me a photograph of herself taken around the time of the D-Day landings and I look at an image of a beautiful, confident young woman with masses of thick, dark hair piled high on top of her head.\n\n\"Oh yes!\" she laughs coquettishly. \"My hair was my pride, my crowning glory!\"\n\nThe soldiers were clearly enchanted by this pretty 15-year-old and gave her sweets and biscuits from their rations. But the gift she remembers most clearly is the little tin of chocolate they gave her, which could be heated up as a drink.\n\nTherese closes her eyes in ecstasy as she recalls tasting it, watching the battalions of Canadian and British soldiers.\n\n\"Honestly,\" she sighs, \"I never drank such a chocolate in all my life!\"\n\nThat evening, she says, the soldiers pulled a piano from a bomb-damaged house into the street and one of them played for the village. Thérèse doesn't remember the exact tunes he played but she knows it was something joyful.\n\n\"Because we danced!\" she laughs. \"We danced until the evening came.\"\n\nWhile we chat, Thérèse's husband Pierre watches us quietly, occasionally sighing and shaking his head. His experience of the liberation was very different from his wife's because he lived 20km south of Bernières-sur-Mer, at Caen, which would endure a further two months of heavy bombing before the Germans were defeated.\n\nLeon Gautier and the patched-up photo of Dorothea, whom he later married\n\nOn 6 June 1944, 21-year-old Leon Gautier was one of 177 elite French commandos who took part in the Normandy landings with the British 4 Commando unit.\n\nHe was one of the first men to step on to Sword beach - the British soldiers were \"gentlemanly\", he says, and allowed the French to land first. He was distraught when the photo of his English girlfriend, Dorothea, got wet in the sea. Later, in a trench, he repaired it with the sticking plaster from his first aid kit.\n\nHe remembers meeting a few French civilians near Sword beach and laughing when they presumed he was British and tried to speak to his unit in English. They told him they were scared of repercussions when the Allied forces left. \"We will not go back,\" he told them. \"This time it's for good.\"\n\nThe historian Anthony Beevor once described the Battle of Caen as being \"close to a war crime\", but Pierre does not want to criticise the Allied forces, he just says that life was \"very, very hard\" for Caen's civilians, who were almost starving by the summer of 1944. For two-and-a-half years, Pierre and his parents slept in their cellar to survive. Many of their friends and neighbours were not so lucky.\n\n\"There were many, many dead at Caen,\" he reminds me. \"And we knew nothing about D-Day. That night (6 June) the bombs fell non-stop. We imagined something might be happening but we didn't know it was accompanied by soldiers landing on the Normandy coast. All we saw were German reinforcements passing by - and, later, trucks returning from the front full of dead soldiers.\"\n\nEventually, Pierre's parents decided to evacuate to the countryside.\n\n\"The first D-Day soldiers I saw would have been in August,\" he says. \"American soldiers - a battalion of black American soldiers - gave us chewing gum but passed by quickly. We didn't have physical contact or conversation with the Americans. We were liberated without really knowing it.\" He shrugs.\n\n\"And Caen didn't get better from one day to the next. We had no electricity, no water - everything had been bombed to bits.\"\n\nThérèse has been busy shelling peas for lunch while her husband talks but she comes over to join us now and interjects that while she had the pleasure of seeing the liberation, her husband saw only the war.\n\n\"There was no joy,\" he admits. \"Even after the ceasefire in 1945, the people weren't spilling over with joy. I don't remember any laughter in the streets. I think mentally, we were all rather crushed.\"\n\nPierre and Thérèse will return to Normandy for the 75th anniversary of D-Day just as they have done many times before. And for the first time since the war ended, 96-year-old Jake Larson will be back in France too, to pay his respects at the cemeteries where his fallen comrades are buried.\n\n\"I'm the luckiest man alive,\" he tells me emphatically. \"We lost 2,400 men on Omaha beach that day, men I walked over, men who died to spare me.\" His voice trails off. \"There's a feeling of guilt in that,\" he admits. \"So now it's time to pay my respects and to thank them for their sacrifice.\"\n\nJake Larson is now the only survivor from his regiment - the \"last man standing\", as he jokes. Pierre and Thérèse too are painfully aware that in another 10 years there may be only a handful of civilian witnesses like them.\n\n\"Young people don't know about D-Day, they don't care about the war,\" says Thérèse with a wry smile. \"To them it's just history.

identified only as Witness M - told an inquest at the Old Bailey in London that it was \"very unsatisfactory\" his team was not informed about the call.\n\nUsman Darr had contacted the hotline because he was concerned that his brother-in-law had been distributing anti-Western texts and links to jihadi sites and had become increasingly extreme in his views.\n\nThe information was processed but never passed on to the joint MI5 and police investigation of Butt that had been under way since mid-2015.\n\nIn the same month that he was reported by his brother-in-law, Butt was assessed by the security service as having a \"strong risk\" of staging a terror attack on his own, but there was no evidence he was planning one.\n\nIn May 2017 MI5 lowered the assessed risk of Butt carrying out a lone terror attack to moderate, but increased his ability to do so to moderate.\n\nPolice decided not to charge him with possession of extremist material because there was not a strong enough chance of disrupting any potential terror plot, Witness M said.\n\nThe inquest also heard Butt had associated with members of the banned terrorist group Al-Muhajiroun, including Siddhartha Dhar - who went on to fight for so-called Islamic State - and the group's leader Anjem Choudary.\n\nThe victims of the London Bridge attack clockwise from top left - Chrissy Archibald, James McMullan, Alexandre Pigeard, Sébastien Bélanger, Ignacio Echeverría, Xavier Thomas, Sara Zelenak, Kirsty Boden\n\nWitness M also told the inquest he had not personally been made aware that Butt had appeared in a Channel 4 programme called The Jihadi Next Door in January 2016, saying the programme was reviewed by another team.\n\nThe court previously heard how Butt appeared in the programme - where he condemned the UK government, particularly over its actions in Iraq and Syria - for roughly two minutes but was not identified by name.\n\nLater that year, Butt was employed by London Underground, including working at Westminster station, but Witness M said he did not have grounds to intervene.\n\nIn October 2016, Butt was arrested with three others on suspicion of falsely reporting fraudulent activity on three bank accounts, and bailed until January 2017.\n\nHowever, prosecutors advised there was not enough evidence to charge him.\n\nWitness M said police were also unaware of a number of pieces of information that indicated Butt was associated with the two other attackers.\n\nThese included the fact they all met at Ummah Fitness Centre in Ilford, east London, that was itself run by a suspected senior member of Al-Muhajiroun, and that they went on regular trips together to take their children swimming.\n\nLast week, the lawyer representing several of the victims' families told the court there were \"opportunities galore\" to identify that the three men were plotting an attack.\n\nXavier Thomas, 45, Christine Archibald, 30, Sara Zelenak, 21, Sebastien Belanger, 36, James McMullan, 32, Kirsty Boden, 28, Alexandre Pigeard, 26, and Ignacio Echeverria, 39, were all killed in the attack.", "Robert Williams was an 18-year-old Royal Marine on D-Day who landed on Sword Beach, and served throughout France and into Germany.\n\n\"I didn't get a scratch,\" the 94-year-old said.\n\nWhen Mrs May came over to thank him at the Bayeux cemetery event, \"I took her by the arms and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

More than 6,330 boats carrying thousands of men readied themselves to launch the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe.\n\nThe night before, Ted and his fellow crew were told they were joining a large operation, but they had no idea of the scale until they saw the other ships.\n\nBut they were not nervous. Ted says: \"Well, you see, once you've gone to sea you've always got to be ready for action, U-boats, anything.\n\n\"It's like everything, you go into something strange and of course you're apprehensive, even if you're not frightened, because you just get on with it - and please God you'll be alright.\"\n\nHMS Belfast was the flagship of Bombardment Force E, supporting troops landing at Gold and Juno beaches by attacking German defences.\n\nThe ship came under occasional fire from German artillery and dive-bombers but managed to battle on unscathed as it continued to hit German positions.\n\nWorking predominantly on the upper deck, Ted had a bird's eye view of the action unfolding around him.\n\nHMS Belfast, pictured during the Second World War, was built in 1936\n\nHe says: \"When we got near the coast we could see all the activity and we just went in and anchored up and as soon as we got there, more or less, we opened fire.\"\n\nAs one of the larger warships present on D-Day, HMS Belfast also had a fully equipped sick bay staffed by surgeons and took hundreds of casualties on board during the first day of fighting.\n\nAfter destroying the German defence batteries, the crew was tasked with clearing the beach and bringing wounded soldiers back to the ship to receive medical treatment.\n\nTed was trained to operate one of Belfast's two cranes, which allowed him to lift stretchers up on to the deck.\n• None 4,400from the combined allied forces died on the day\n\nIt was a difficult job, made harder when he realised how badly injured the troops were.\n\nTed says: \"I'll die with this memory.

The word is now considered extremely derogatory.\n\nAn LGBT activist told me that on initially reading about Gareth's dismissal they felt sorry for him, until they then dug through his previous tweets.\n\nEbury's decision to drop Roberts over his tweets, which it says conflicts with its \"values as a publisher\", has sparked debate on social media.\n\nToby Young, author and associate editor of The Spectator, criticised the \"shocking\" decision, calling it an \"affront to free speech\" by a \"publicly-owned company\".\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

Currently, the ASD is not allowed to spy on Australians, though the domestic spy agency, ASIO, can investigate citizens with a warrant.\n\nAt the time, the two ministries and the ASD released a joint statement saying: \"There is no proposal to increase the ASD's powers to collect intelligence on Australians or to covertly access their private data.\"\n\nTuesday's raid in a suburb of the capital, Canberra, came weeks after a new centre-right government was elected.

This civilian technology would be transferable to submarines.\n\nA spokesperson for the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) said: \"We believe having a diverse energy mix is the best way of ensuing energy security while allowing us to meet our climate commitments.\n\n\"Nuclear has an important role to play as we transition to a low-carbon economy, but as with any technology, it must represent good value for money for the taxpayer and consumer.\"\n\nThe committee is expected to release the evidence in coming days as it prepares to discuss whether the UK really needs nuclear power for energy security.\n\nThe debate has taken on greater significance as the true costs of nuclear power have been revealed.\n\nIt was once forecast that nuclear energy would be too cheap to meter. But it's clear now that bill-payers will give price support to the Hinkley Point C nuclear station at a cost of £92.50 per megawatt hour, compared with the cheapest agreed future subsidy of £57.50 for offshore wind.\n\nMinisters expect that, before long, wind energy will operate without support.\n\nProf Stirling says the issue of nuclear inter-dependence is addressed openly in the US.\n\nIn 2017, the former US Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz (a nuclear scientist) said: “A strong domestic (nuclear) supply chain is needed to provide for Navy requirements. This has a very strong overlap with commercial nuclear energy.”\n\nProf Stirling told BBC News: \"We need this sort of transparency in the UK.\"\n\nBut the government faces a Catch-22 situation on this issue.\n\nIf it continues to decline to admit the inter-dependence of civil and military nuclear, it will stand accused of hiding a self-evident truth.\n\nBut if it accepts that decisions on nuclear power are influenced with half an eye on manufacturing jobs and nuclear deterrent, it will face resistance from consumer groups unwilling to cross-subsidise submarines.\n\nThe MPs’ hearing is timely, as the government will shortly publish an energy white paper outlining how the UK will supply electricity in a zero carbon economy.", "From Marilyn Monroe to Nelson Mandela, some big names have graced the tarmac of Shannon Airport over the years.\n\nAs Donald Trump makes his first visit as US president, we look back at some of the other famous faces who have visited the airport in County Clare.", "Sala had been flying to join his new team, Cardiff City, when the plane carrying him crashed\n\nTwo people are to appear in court after a photograph apparently showing a post-mortem examination of footballer Emiliano Sala appeared online.\n\nSherry Bray, 48, of Corsham, and Christopher Ashford, 62, of Calne, both in Wiltshire, have been summonsed in relation to computer misuse charges.\n\nBoth will appear in Swindon Magistrates' Court on 10 July.\n\nThe Argentine striker, who had just signed to Cardiff City, died in a plane crash in January.\n\nA post-mortem examination on Sala was conducted on 7 February at Holly Tree Lodge Mortuary in Bournemouth, Dorset.\n\nMs Bray faces three counts of computer misuse, perverting the course of justice and sending an indecent or offensive message.\n\nAnthony Johns, senior lawyer for the Crown Prosecution Service, warned that criminal proceedings against the defendants were now active.\n\n\"It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings,\" he said.", "Thousands of people attended the 2018 event at Drumlanrig Castle in 2018\n\nThe Electric Fields music festival has been cancelled less than two months after it was moved from southern Scotland to a new venue in Glasgow.\n\nMetronomy, The Vaccines and Frank Turner were among the acts due to perform at the event between 4-6 July.\n\nOrganisers announced in April that they were moving the festival from Drumlanrig Castle in Dumfries and Galloway to SWG3 in Finnieston.\n\nHowever, on Tuesday they confirmed the event would not now go ahead.\n\nThe announcement followed fans' complaints on social media, after attempts to buy tickets via the Electric Fields website were greeted with the message: \"This show has been cancelled\".\n\nFans trying to buy tickets via the Electric Fields website were told the show was cancelled\n\nIt included a Manchester-based number for the festival's ticketing company, Ticketline, for fans wishing to claim a refund.\n\nOn Tuesday afternoon, Electric Fields posted a statement on their Facebook page saying it was \"with a heavy heart\" the festival had now been cancelled.\n\nIt said: \"This decision has not come lightly and we have put in our all to try avoid this outcome, however we have been faced with challenges that we simply cannot overcome.\n\n\"As of today, Electric Fields ceases trading.

Hong Kong is one of the few places in Chinese territory where an annual remembrance vigil can be held.\n\nTens of thousands of people have gathered in Hong Kong to mark the 30th anniversary of the crackdown on protests in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.\n\nHong Kong and Macau are the only places in Chinese territory where people can commemorate the activists killed in 1989.\n\nChina has never given an official figure for how many people died, but estimates begin in the hundreds.\n\nOrganisers say 180,000 people joined a vigil in the city's Victoria Park.\n\nBut police put the number of attendees at under 40,000.\n\nIn mainland China, the authorities have banned even oblique references to the crackdown, which took place after weeks of mass protests that were tolerated by the government. The numbers gathered in and around Tiananmen Square are estimated to have reached a peak of one million people.\n\nHundreds of security personnel and police were monitoring the square in Beijing on Tuesday.\n\nHong Kong's Victoria Park is once again a sea of candlelight as far as the eye can see.\n\nThe crowd, many dressed in black, is mostly silent whilst holding up their candles in mourning. Some are crying. In between protest songs, they chant \"the people will not forget\".\n\nThe crowd claps and cheers when Liane Lee - who took part in the 1989 protests - shouts: \"We refuse to forget. We refuse to believe the lies\".\n\nStanding watching is Teresa Chan. She has attended the commemoration every year since 1990, except once when she was ill.\n\n\"I wanted to go Beijing to be with the movement but I couldn't,\" she says. \"I never imagined it would end the way it did, it's very hard to forget.\"\n\nBut there are also new faces in the crowd this year.\n\nProtestor Teresa Chan has come to the protest in Hong Kong nearly every year\n\nMs Leung, who is in her 30s, says she decided to come for the first time because she is worried about Hong Kong's future.\n\n\"I am very angry with what the Chinese government is doing here,\" she says.\n\nAmongst the remembrance flowers and candles, there are posters protesting against proposed amendments to laws concerning extraditions to mainland China. Many fear the changes will lead to the further erosion of civil liberties here in Hong Kong.\n\nHere in Victoria Park are also some mainland Chinese residents like Mr Zeng who travelled to Hong Kong with his wife and 11-year-old daughter just to attend tonight's event.\n\nHis daughter says it's an eye-opening experience. \"I am here to learn the real history about China.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo criticised China's human rights record and called on it to finally reveal how many people died in the crackdown.\n\nIn response, a Chinese embassy spokesman in Washington DC said his comments were \"an affront to the Chinese people\".\n\nOn Tuesday, China issued separate travel warnings to its citizens travelling to the US, citing police harassment and crime.\n\nIts foreign ministry accused American law enforcement agencies of \"harassing\" Chinese citizens in the US through immigration checks and other methods.\n\nPro-democracy protesters occupied Tiananmen Square in April 1989 and began the largest political demonstrations in communist China's history. They lasted six weeks.\n\nOn the night of 3 June tanks moved in and troops opened fire, killing and injuring many unarmed people in and around Tiananmen Square.\n\nAfterwards the authorities claimed no-one had been shot dead in the square itself.

Tom Watson: \"I am bewildered by the decision\"\n\nLabour MP Caroline Flint also said Mr Williamson should not have been readmitted.\n\n\"He seems to have gone out of his way to support people who have been expelled from the Labour Party for anti-Semitism,\" she told the BBC's Question Time.\n\nJon Lansman, chair of the Labour grassroots group Momentum, said Mr Williamson \"has to go\" and tweeted that the MP had shown \"not one iota of contrition nor any acknowledgement of wrongdoing\".\n\nSeparately more than 70 Labour staff members have signed a letter to the party's general secretary Jennie Formby to express their dismay at the decision.\n\nBut, speaking before the publication of the letters, Mr Corbyn said he had not been involved in the decision to readmit Mr Williamson.\n\n\"It was an independent panel set up through [Labour's ruling body] the National Executive. They examined the case, they decided to let him back in, albeit with a reprimand.\"\n\n\"Anyone that makes anti-Semitic remarks can expect at the very least to be reprimanded and if they are very serious and engaged in anti-Semitic activity then they will be expelled from the party,\" he said.\n\nChris Williamson said Labour had done more to address anti-Semitism than any other party\n\nMr Williamson was readmitted to Labour on Wednesday, following his suspension in February.\n\nHe was suspended following publication of footage showing Mr Williamson telling activists Labour had been \"too apologetic\" over anti-Semitism and was being \"demonised as a racist, bigoted party\".\n\nHe later said he \"deeply\" regretted the remarks and did not want anyone to think he was \"minimising the cancer of anti-Semitism\".\n\nAfter his readmission, he told BBC Radio Derby: \"Anybody who knows me, who knows my record, knows I'm someone who has stood up against bigotry throughout my political life and indeed beforehand.\"\n\nThe Equalities and Human Rights Commission confirmed in May it would be launching a probe into whether Labour had \"unlawfully discriminated against, harassed or victimised people because they are Jewish\".", "Smart? Intelligent? Surely, yes we would all want a clever politician in charge, someone who grasps complexity and is willing to put in the hours to solve the country's problems.\n\nBut without resorting to the insult that the inhabitants of Westminster would have been on stage and screen if only they'd been more aesthetically blessed, politics also has an element of performance about it.\n\nIt is a very serious form of showbiz if you like. Its most senior figures become famous, even if often for all the wrong reasons.\n\nPolitical parties want their leaders to have \"cut through\", to use the terrible jargon, not just to communicate clearly, but to make people want to listen.\n\nSo, you'd likely want your desert island dream prime minister not just to be able to do the work, to be serious about what it takes, but to have razzmatazz to be a bit of a performer, a politician who can bring in a crowd and make them feel good.\n\nIt is a battle of ideas and how you win it is, of course, down to how convincingly and compellingly you can explain them.\n\nSo in our ideal world, (leaving the ideology out of it) it's all pretty straightforward.\n\nThe prime minister ought surely to be a man or woman who can be bothered to master vital spreadsheets, full of calculations about what to do with the country's hard earned cash, to be all over the detail of international treaties like a rash, to have original ideas about how to fix the country's problems.\n\nBut also, someone with standout charisma who can persuade, cajole, maybe even inspire.\n\nWithout offending fans of spreadsheets - and there are many of them out there who are also highly charismatic individuals - the Tory members who will choose the next prime minister don't live in that kind of nirvana.\n\nHaving spent a chunk of time this week interviewing Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt at length, the small electorate in this contest do not really have in front of them a candidate bathing in both mastery of policy and detail and political star quality.\n\nAnd by extension, nor do the rest of us who don't have any choice at all.\n\nFirst off, the spreadsheet test.\n\nThere is good reason why Mr Johnson is criticised for being cavalier about detail, that goes way beyond his terrible mistake about the Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe case.\n\nPeople who have worked closely with him, both fans and detractors, say that he is simply not really interested in minutiae.\n\nOfficials who worked with him tell me there were two kinds of Mr Johnson and they weren't always sure which one they were going to get, changing even on a daily basis.\n\nSometimes he could be utterly persuasive and on top of policy.\n\nBut on other occasions it was evident that he just hadn't bothered to absorb the information required and wouldn't focus, even complaining about the amount of material that was put in his ministerial red box.\n\nAnd it's clear from talking to him at length this week the force of his arguments do not come from a profound understanding of detail.\n\nHe's happiest painting with a broad brush, even when it's not a model bus.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. In full: Boris Johnson on Brexit, his character, political record and right to privacy\n\nFor his most loyal supporters that, believe it or not, simply doesn't matter.\n\nNot just because they believe he passes the charisma test so easily, but because being a leader should be about decisions not details.\n\nOne of his backers familiar with how Mr Johnson operates makes the comparison to the captain of an enormous battleship.\n\nThey don't want or need to know which pump has broken in the engine room, which crewman has gone sick, what the exact temperature of the boilers are, but is only required to know if there is a problem that affects the performance of the vessel and if it can be fixed.\n\nAnd you'll regularly hear around the place that the former foreign secretary would run his Number 10 operation as the chairman of the board, not the chief executive - the decider and figurehead, not the manager.\n\nThere's also a view in his camp that because much of the public isn't that interested in the micro detail of policy, not of course always the case, then it doesn't really matter if he isn't either.\n\nIn a funny way that means he has more in common with most of the public than proper Westminster nerds.\n\nHis many doubters though believe it is nothing short of outrageous that someone in his position has basically not always been bothered to pay proper attention.\n\nAnd the objection is sometimes particularly profound because Mr Johnson is clearly very smart - it's a question of attitude, not ability.\n\nThe affable former chairman and chief whip of the Tory Party, Patrick McLoughlin, who, it should be said, is supporting Mr Johnson's rival, said today: \"There were times when Boris wasn't quite on top of the brief.\"\n\nQuite. Others in private speak much, much less diplomatically.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMr Hunt is a very different kind of politician.\n\nWhen he was in charge at the Department of Health he made cracking down on mistakes in hospitals one of his big priorities.\n\nAnd on the wall in his office on Whitehall hung a weekly list of mistakes being made in every hospital in England.\n\nIt's not quite the same as Aneurin Bevan's famous words at the birth of the NHS, when he vowed that \"if a hospital bedpan is dropped in a hospital corridor in Tredegar, the reverberations should echo around Whitehall\".\n\nBut it is telling of a politician who will delve down into the details of a problem to get a grip on it. (At this point I can't resist telling you that Mr Johnson has a light sabre on his desk).\n\nThat doesn't mean for a second that Mr Hunt has not made political mistakes.\n\nHis record at the NHS is less shiny than he would want to admit.\n\nWith critical targets for care missed again and again, a corrosive dispute with junior doctors over their contracts, huge staff shortages.\n\nWhen he was culture secretary he had an ill-fated ambition to encourage a huge expansion in local TV stations that ended with a whimper not a bang.\n\nBut those who have worked with him say that he is serious, and lo and behold, actually cares about detail and facts. (A bit trickier when it comes to his Brexit plans, but we'll come to that in a moment).\n\nPolitics though is not just about detail and facts, it's about emotion and belief.\n\nThis is where Mr Johnson's supporters believes he is in his own galaxy.\n\nI've written many times before about how he is one of a tiny number of politicians who has a particular kind of pull on the public on the campaign trail.\n\nGo out to observe and film him on the road, members of the public stop what they are doing, come out of their shops or homes, or put down their coffee in the café on the corner, to go to try to meet him, whether to shake his hand, ask for a selfie, or maybe just as likely, to harangue him and accuse him of everything under the sun.\n\nHe makes some people mad, but he delights others. But it is not possible to ignore him.\n\nMr Johnson plays on that, of course, outlining his supposed obscure hobby of painting happy passengers on a model bus yesterday, knowing fine well for every moment that members of the public were wondering what on earth he was talking about.\n\nSharing the bizarre clip of the video, they would be wondering about that, rather than what on earth he would do with the country.\n\nFor as long as he is \"entertaining\", then people aren't busy analysing perhaps.\n\nWhen he creates that kind of circus, willingly or not, he is maybe the ringmaster, and not the clown.\n\nOne of the interesting things about this campaign so far is that Mr Hunt has undone some of the buttons that have been firmly in place during his long time in cabinet.\n\nHe has made jokes online, he has talked about his family and his Chinese in-laws' nicknames for him.\n\nHe has attacked Mr Johnson in a way that this politician who prides himself on being polite but tough would not have previously dared.\n\nHe's done that because he knows the best chance he has to make up the ground between him and the favourite is to push at the bruise, the questions many Tory members have about Mr Johnson's character.\n\nBut at this stage, while Mr Johnson leaps over the hurdle of the charisma test, which can repel as well as attract, Mr Hunt struggles to overcome it.\n\nThat's not because he is less charismatic than your average politician these days.\n\nCompared to many of them, including the current prime minister, despite his serious tangles with junior doctors, Tory members would see an affable, and safe-ish pair of hands.\n\nBut if it comes down to making an impression, who is the candidate to make a splash, it is not Mr Hunt.\n\nFor all the contrasts between the two men, it is important to understand that when it comes to the biggest question they'd have to grapple with there isn't a vast cavern between them.\n\nAs we've reported all week, they clash over the Brexit deadline, but broadly, they both want to change the existing deal, and they both say they'd leave without one.\n\nIt's important to know too that both of their plans for leaving the EU are based on a lot of ifs and buts.\n\nThey also have, despite their very different characters, to most of us, remarkably similar backgrounds - public school, Oxford, then long careers in politics.\n\nYet the Tory party must choose, in the knowledge they don't have a candidate in front of them who passes all the hypothetical tests.\n\nI've written before, and will no doubt write again - never underestimate Mr Johnson's capacity to implode.\n\nIt's also worth noting that Mr Hunt is by the day opening up to make his pitch more compelling.\n\nBut despite the drama that seems to follow Mr Johnson around, after a largely miserable three years of knocking lumps out of each other, right now, the Tory party looks set to choose the feel good over the facts.\n\nWhat would you like the prime minister to be?\n\nExperienced? Well, of course, no-one would want an amateur in charge, someone with no idea how Westminster works.\n\nThe public would indeed expect that the person talking on the country's behalf in Parliament and around the world has gravitas, that when he or she speaks, you'd want the rest of the world to pay attention without worrying about what mess they might blunder into.\n\nDoesn't sound too much to ask.", "About 175,000 people are expected to attend the festival over the next three days\n\nStormzy might be headlining later but Glastonbury is waking up to blazing heat on Friday, with temperatures expected to reach 28 Celsius.\n\nThe festival is giving away free sun lotion and water to combat the heat, and extra shaded areas will be opened if necessary.\n\n175,000 people are expected to attend the festival over the next three days.\n\nAbba tribute act Bjorn Again will open the main stage, with Lauryn Hill and George Ezra playing before Stormzy.\n\nBut the music started early on Thursday night with a surprise set by Jamie Cullum at the BBC Introducing Stage.\n\nThe jazz pianist covered The Beatles' Come Together and Taylor Swift's Shake It Off, encouraging fans to post the latter to YouTube in the hope that she might ask to meet him.\n\nGlastonbury's co-founder Michael Eavis also popped up at the Avalon Café, playing a short set with his band Michael Eavis and Friends.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nIntroduced on stage as the \"Godfather of festival fun\" and \"chief cow herder\", the 83-year-old warmed up the crowd with Elvis standards like Can't Help Falling In Love and Suspicious Minds.\n\nHe later brought out his daughter, Emily, to duet on Frank and Nancy Sinatra's Something Stupid.\n\nEngland fans were in high spirits as they watched their team storm into the semi-finals\n\nOver at the West Holts Stage, meanwhile, thousands of people gathered to watch England beat Norway and reach the semi-finals of the Women's World Cup.\n\nAmong the audience was singer Billy Bragg and former England player Emily Westwood.\n\nAccording to overnight figures, an average audience of six million people watched the Lionesses' 3-0 win, with the BBC One broadcast peaking at 7.6m in the closing stages.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

They're outnumbered by an invisible army of people working remotely on their computers or smartphones or providing services in other people's homes,\" she said.\n\nSix in 10 of the respondents to the survey admitted buying services in this way at some point.\n\nThe TUC said the survey showed that it was time for all workers to get basic rights such as the minimum wage and holiday.\n\n\"The world of work is changing fast and working people don't have the protection they need,\" Ms O'Grady said.\n\nAt the end of last year, the government said it was introducing measures to give better protection to workers on zero-hour contracts, agency employees or gig economy workers.\n\nStaff would have to be told details of their rights from their first day in a job, including eligibility for paid and sick leave, and given the right to require more predictable hours.\n\nIn February 2018, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy published research showing that 4.4% of the population in Great Britain had worked in the gig economy in the last 12 months.", "The Vauxhall Astra is currently built in Ellesmere Port\n\nThe next generation of the Vauxhall Astra will be built at its Ellesmere Port car plant if a satisfactory Brexit deal is reached, its owners have said.\n\nThe PSA Group said it would also invest in the Rüsselsheim plant in Germany to manufacture Opel Astras from 2021.\n\nIt said the decision would be conditional on the New Vehicle Agreement, negotiated with Unite.\n\nIn a statement, it said the decision demonstrated \"the continuous effort and commitment\" of the group.\n\nCurrently the Vauxhall and Opel Astra are built in Ellesmere Port in Cheshire, which was opened in 1962, and in Gliwice, Poland.\n\nThe PSA Group said the decision on the allocation to the Ellesmere Port plant \"will be conditional on the final terms of the UK's exit from the European Union and the acceptance of the New Vehicle Agreement, which has been negotiated with the Unite trade union\".\n\nThe New Vehicle Agreement is an agreement between management and unions covering working practices along with terms and conditions which are struck prior to the production of new models.\n\nVauxhall employs about 3,000 people in the UK\n\nThe decision to build the new model at Ellesmere Port would help to safeguard the future of the Cheshire plant, which has been in doubt since PSA Group took control of Vauxhall in 2017.\n\nThe factory currently makes an older version of the Astra, but sales have been declining, and the number of people working there has almost halved since the takeover.\n\nUnder the plan, Ellesmere Port would be one of two factories which will begin building the new Astra in 2021.\n\nHowever, PSA Group has made it clear the decision to build the car in the UK will depend on the terms of the UK's future trading relationship with the EU.\n\nSources say the minimum the company is looking for is a commitment to frictionless trade after Brexit, and no-deal is not an option.\n\nVauxhall has previously said it faces falling sales and relatively high manufacturing costs at the Ellesmere Port plant, which employs about 1,100 people.\n\nA Unite union spokesman, said: \"PSA have made it very clear that no deal means no deal for Ellesmere Port.\n\n\"We are calling on the government to take no deal off the table so that the future of Ellesmere Port - and the thousands of jobs in the supply chain - can be secured.\"\n\nCar production has been falling in the UK over the past year, amid increasing pleas from the industry for a Brexit deal.\n\nThe UK's automotive industry has received a series of blows in recent months, with Honda announcing it will close its Swindon plant in 2021.\n\nFord also said its Bridgend engine plant in south Wales would close in September 2020 with the loss of 1,700 jobs.\n\nJapanese car producers, including Nissan, have said that Brexit uncertainty is not helping them \"plan for the future\".\n\nEarlier this year, Nissan opted to build the next X-Trail model in Japan, rather than in Sunderland.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Twitter says it will hide tweets by world leaders and politicians that break its rules but have been left online \"in the public interest\".\n\nTweets from prominent government officials that break the platform's rules but have been left online will be hidden behind a notice.\n\nThe company accepted it had not clearly communicated many of the decisions it had made in the past.\n\nBut the new notice will only be applied to tweets sent after 27 June.\n\nTwitter's critics say the platform does not enforce its rules evenly, allowing politicians to break its rules on abuse, harassment and incitement.\n\nIn the past, Twitter has defended some of its decisions by saying the tweets in question were \"newsworthy\".\n\nFor example, in September 2017 the company said it had decided to leave a controversial tweet by US President Donald Trump online.\n\nIn the tweet, Mr Trump said: \"Just heard Foreign Minister of North Korea speak at UN. If he echoes thoughts of Little Rocket Man, they won't be around much longer!\"\n\nMany people interpreted the message as a threat to North Korea.\n\nAlthough Twitter decided the post was newsworthy, there was no indication of this on the Twitter app or website.\n\nTwitter did not say whether any particular politician had inspired the change to its rules.\n\nTweets placed behind the new notice will no longer appear in search results and will not be promoted by the platform's algorithms.\n\nAffected tweets will be hidden behind a new notice\n\nThe new policy will only apply to people who:\n\nHowever, Twitter said in some cases - such as direct and immediate threats of violence - the tweets would still be removed.\n\nThe company said most users were \"unlikely to encounter\" the new notice often.\n\n\"This is a step, although a small step, in the right direction,\" said Dr Zoetanya Sujon from the London College of Communication.\n\n\"Of course, it doesn't stop soft racism or active political disinformation. And it will not have any visible impact on Twitter's harassment problem.\n\n\"Let's hope it can spark much better practice around the regulation of disinformation, hate speech, and incitement in political and public discussion on Twitter.\"\n\nHowever, the platform is likely to face accusations of censorship when it places the first politician's tweet behind its new notice.\n\nThe company said old tweets would not be hidden behind the notice, and it could not predict when the new tool would first be used.", "Pam Morrison is now the only surviving member of her family\n\nA woman whose three brothers were killed by the IRA has spoken for the first time of how their deaths were a \"complete disaster\" for her family.\n\nRonnie, Cecil and Jimmy Graham were all shot dead in separate attacks in County Fermanagh in the 1980s.\n\nThey were all part-time members of the Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR).\n\nPam Morrison is the only surviving member of their family and told BBC News NI about the effect of their deaths on the Lisnaskea family.\n\nThe UDR was an infantry regiment of the the British Army, created in 1970.\n\nThe Grahams first encountered tragedy in 1979 when Pam's 27-year-old sister Hilary - also a UDR member - died years after being hit by a car while manning a checkpoint.\n\nWithin six years, three other members of the family were shot dead by the IRA.\n\nAll three were off duty when they were attacked.\n\nIn June 1981, Lance Corporal Ronnie Graham, 39, was killed when he was ambushed while delivering groceries for a local shop.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Their stock for each part is only for a few hours. But if there is no-deal Brexit, and if they have to go through actual custom inspection physically, those operations may not be able to continue.\n\n\"And many companies are worried about [the] implications because they don't know what's going to happen,\" he said, so they have started to move their operations to other places in Europe.\n\nHe also doubted the UK could sign a new trade deal with Japan - or other nations - before leaving the EU.\n\n\"I don't think so,\" said Mr Kono when asked if he thought it was possible, adding there would be \"some kind of gap\" before a deal could be agreed.\n\nIt was possible the UK could join the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade pact, he said. But again, he said negotiations could not take place until the UK had left the EU.\n\nThere would be \"some kind of gap\" before a deal could be ratified.\n\nBut he would like to strengthen the relationship between the two countries, he said.\n\nThe president of the largest Japanese company in the UK, Fujitsu, also told the BBC that the Brexit-related uncertainty was difficult for his company.\n\nTakahito Tokita, who has worked for Fujitsu in London, said contingency plans had been made.\n\nBut when asked if the company - which employs 10,000 people in the UK - could move its offices out of the UK, he said: \"No, definitely no.\"", "Too many crimes are being left unsolved, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner has said.\n\nDuring a speech about the future of policing in England and Wales, Cressida Dick admitted that national detection rates for some offences were \"woefully low\".\n\n\"The courts are emptying, not filling,\" she said, adding \"It's not good and I'm not proud of it.\"\n\nShe said sifting through vast amounts of phone and computer data is partly to blame as it slows down investigations.\n\nShe is calling for investment in resources, technology and expertise to drive up clear-up rates.\n\nDuring the speech at the annual John Harris lecture for the Police Foundation - an independent think-tank - Ms Dick contrasted the state of policing now with the service 36 years ago, when she joined the Met.\n\nShe said: \"We are, in my view, infinitely more accountable and trustworthy, less secretive, less, frankly, arrogant, more humble, more responsive and of course very much, but not enough, more diverse.\"\n\nBut the commissioner said criminal investigations in the 1980s were generally \"straightforward\" and could be completed quickly, with suspects often charged within 24 hours, whereas inquiries now were more complex, involving a large amount of digital evidence.\n\n\"There is so much data that has to be looked at... and you've got to know your data inside out and back to front,\" she said.\n\nMs Dick, who became commissioner in April 2017, linked the growing digital demands on policing with a fall in the number of crimes that are solved.\n\nHome Office figures show that in England and Wales last year only 8.2% of crimes recorded by police resulted in a suspect being charged or summonsed to appear in court, the lowest level since 2015 when a new method of counting detections was introduced.\n\nFor some individual crimes, clear-up rates were even lower: 3.8% for sexual offences; 5.4% criminal damage and arson; 6% theft.\n\n\"Overall police detection rates nationally are low, woefully low I would say in some instances, and the courts are emptying, not filling,\" the Commissioner said.\n\n\"It's not good, and I'm not proud of it,\" she added.\n\nThe Home Office statistics suggest there is a range of reasons why fewer prosecutions are being brought.\n\nIn 45.7% of offences, no suspect was identified. Over one-in-five of cases failed to proceed because the victim did not co-operate, and in almost one in 10, there were other problems with evidence.\n\nMs Dick claimed if police were able to harness data more effectively, a \"very, very large proportion\" of crimes could be solved, pointing to cases of murder and manslaughter to illustrate how it could be achieved.\n\nThe homicide detection rate has historically been around 90%, although BBC analysis shows it's been on the decline in London since 2016.\n\nTo raise clear-up levels to those of homicide cases, the Commissioner said it would need a \"magic wand\" of extra resources, better use of technology and greater expertise.", "Sir Jony Ive, the Briton who over two decades helped turn Apple into the world's most valuable company, is leaving to set up his own venture.\n\nSir Jonathan, designer of the iMac, iPod and iPhone, leaves later this year to start a creative firm, LoveFrom, with Apple as its first client.\n\n\"This just seems like a natural and gentle time to make this change,\" he said.\n\nApple boss Tim Cook said his \"role in Apple's revival cannot be overstated\".\n\nBut the departure comes at a time of wider change at the tech giant. Retail chief Angela Ahrendts left in April and investors have been worried about falling iPhone sales.\n\nSir Jonathan said in a statement: \"After nearly 30 years and countless projects, I am most proud of the lasting work we have done to create a design team, process and culture at Apple that is without peer.\"\n\nLittle is known about LoveFrom, but it will be based in California and there are reports one area of focus will be wearable technology. News of his departure broke in an exclusive interview in the Financial Times.\n\nIn the article, Sir Jonathan said Marc Newson, a friend and collaborator at Apple, would also join the new firm. There would also be \"a collection of creatives\" spanning several different disciplines beyond design, he said.\n\nThe iPhone is the most profitable product in history\n\nHe became head of Apple's design studio in 1996, when the company was in poor financial health and cutting jobs. The turnaround began with Sir Jonathan's iMac in 1998, and the iPod in 2001.\n\nApple's founder, the late Steve Jobs, once said of Sir Jonathan: \"If I had a spiritual partner at Apple, it's Jony.\"\n\nOne of Sir Jonathan's most recent projects was finishing Apple's new corporate headquarters, Apple Park, an ultra-modern complex designed in partnership with British architects Foster + Partners.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why Apple is worth $1 trillion... and who could challenge it\n\nBen Bajarin, analyst with Creative Strategies, said: \"It's the most significant departure of somebody who was a core part of the growth story\" under Mr Jobs.\n\nSir Jonathan, knighted by the Queen in 2012, will not have an immediate successor. Since 2012, he has overseen design for both hardware and software at Apple, roles that had previously been separate.\n\nThe departure of the \"thoughtful\" Sir Jonathan for his own company will be a loss for Apple, which is already facing challenges.\n\nFrom the \"ground-breaking\" iMac to Apple's ambitious new Apple Park campus, he has helped to shape one of the world's most successful companies.\n\n\"Jony is a singular figure in the design world and his role in Apple's revival cannot be overstated,\" said Tim Cook, Apple's chief executive.\n\nApple said on Thursday the roles would again be split, with design team leaders Evans Hankey taking over as vice-president of industrial design and Alan Dye becoming vice-president of human interface design.\n\nMs Hankey is the first woman to lead Apple's industrial design team.\n\nSteve Jobs and Jony Ive, the Lennon and McCartney of Apple - it's impossible to see the company becoming what it is today without the most creative partnership in recent business history.\n\nIve was a relatively junior figure when Jobs returned from exile to revive Apple. He picked out the British designer as a kindred spirit who shared his obsession with the idea that the look and feel of a product was as important as the technology inside it.\n\nTheir first hit was the iMac, breaking away from the beige boxes that dominated the PC market to show that computers could be beautiful design objects.\n\nThe iPod, the iPhone and the iPad followed, each setting new standards in product design which rivals rushed to imitate.\n\nLike Mr Ive's other designs, rivals rushed to imitate the iPod\n\nAfter the death of Steve Jobs, there was speculation that Jony Ive might one day move into the chief executive's office. That always seemed unlikely. Instead he remained the firm's design guru, the often parodied voice of those iconic Apple product videos, while Tim Cook drove the mighty profit machine ever onwards.\n\nIn recent years, it has been harder to detect the Ive magic - while the Airpods look set to become another classic, the $999 stand for a Mac Pro monitor stand seemed to symbolise a company taking its fans for granted.\n\nBut the man who started his career by designing toilets and toothbrushes and ended up giving us the most profitable product in history, the iPhone, is assured of his place in history.", "Ms Dugdale has been an outspoken critic of Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn\n\nThe former leader of Scottish Labour has said there is a \"serious prospect\" that Jeremy Corbyn would agree to hold a second independence referendum.\n\nKezia Dugdale said she believes Mr Corbyn would give consent for indyref2 if he needed SNP support to form a government after a general election.\n\nAnd she predicted Boris Johnson could \"gamble\" by holding an independence referendum if he becomes PM.\n\nMs Dugdale was speaking on her last full day as an MSP at Holyrood.\n\nThe Lothians MSP served as Scottish Labour's leader for two years before quitting in August 2017.\n\nShe will take up a new job as director of the John Smith Centre at Glasgow University later in the summer.\n\nScotland's first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, has said she wants to hold a second independence referendum within the next two years.\n\nMs Dugdale told BBC Scotland's Podlitical podcast that she believed it was increasingly likely that another referendum would happen - but it was less likely Scots would actually vote for independence.\n\nShe described Mr Johnson, who is the favourite to succeed Theresa May as prime minister, as a \"gambler\" who might \"roll the dice on indyref2 because he feels like it\".\n\nMs Dugdale said another likely scenario would be Mr Corbyn having to look to other parties for support if Labour falls just short of winning a majority in a general election.\n\nIt's hard to see why (Mr Corbyn) would walk away from power at that moment. I don't know that to be true, but it's just my feeling\n\nShe said: \"I can see a scenario where the SNP go to Jeremy Corbyn and say we will will vote for every one of your budgets in the lifetime of your parliament in return for indyref2.\n\n\"At that point the Labour Party has to decide does it appease the SNP and give them indyref2 in order to be in power - or does it give up the prospect of being in power in order to protect the union?\"\n\nShe said Mr Corbyn would probably choose to \"appease the SNP\" in that situation.\n\nMs Dugdale added: \"I think it's a serious prospect, and I don't say that in any attempt to cause a political drama - although I'm sure some people will perceive it that way.\n\n\"It's hard to see, from my understanding, why he would walk away from power at that moment. I don't know that to be true, but it's just my feeling.\"\n\nKezia Dugdale was appearing on the Podlitical podcast, which brings you the latest chat from Holyrood and Westminster through the eyes of BBC Scotland journalists.\n\nYou can listen to the latest episode here, or wherever else you get your podcasts from.\n\nBut she said Scots would not vote for independence until the SNP was able to work out \"credible answers\" to questions about the economic impact, including about what currency an independent Scotland would use.\n\nMr Corbyn has previously said he would \"decide at the time\" on whether to allow a new vote on independence if he becomes PM.\n\nHowever, he added: \"We don't want another referendum, we don't think another referendum is a good idea, and we'll be very clear on why we don't think it's a good idea.\"\n\nMs Dugdale, who wants another referendum to be held on EU membership, has been a long-standing critic of Mr Corbyn and his stance on Brexit in particular.\n\nShe is in a relationship with SNP MSP Jenny Gilruth, but dismissed speculation that she could join the SNP or any other party in the future.\n\nShe told the podcast: \"I'm not going to leave the Labour Party to join any other political party. I've devoted my whole adult working life to the Labour movement as a volunteer, as an activist, as a party press officer, as a party organiser as a politician.\n\n\"It has been my life and I am Labour because I believe in equality, I believe in the power of the state to eradicate poverty and to create opportunity\".", "Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt say they are serious about pushing for a no-deal Brexit if they are unable to negotiate a better withdrawal agreement with Brussels.\n\nYet the EU seems unfazed.\n\nWhy, when we know EU leaders want to avoid a no-deal Brexit?\n\nPart of the reason, at least, is time.\n\nIt's summer. European capitals are sweltering under a heatwave with government ministers counting the days until they hit the beach or find some cool mountain air.\n\nThe day the Brexit extension runs out - 31 October - seems an eternity away in political terms.\n\nAlso, just as Messrs Johnson and Hunt do not accept the EU's word when it says the Withdrawal Agreement cannot and will not be re-negotiated, EU leaders do not take them at their word when they threaten no deal by the end of October.\n\nThere are two main EU theories I'm hearing:\n\nJeremy Hunt has already indicated he might delay Brexit if talks were getting somewhere. Would Boris Johnson throw away the chance of successful new negotiations just to push through an October no deal? Unlikely, thinks the EU.\n\nWhich is why many European politicians believe - whatever Mr Johnson and Mr Hunt say now - that the new UK prime minister is most likely to end up requesting a second Brexit extension come the autumn, thereby pushing a no-deal Brexit threat that much further down the road.\n\nAs for the other Brexit claims Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt are making, EU leaders view Mr Johnson as the \"have your cake and eat it\" candidate. And they don't approve of his pitch.\n\nAhead of the EU referendum, Boris Johnson became infamous in Brussels for claiming that the UK could keep the benefits of EU membership even after leaving the single market.\n\nNow he's turning his cake knife to the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement - proposing that some aspects, such as citizens' rights, are respected while others, like the Irish border backstop, are thrown out.\n\n\"Impossible. It's a package deal,\" exasperated diplomats tell me in Brussels, as they hastily resurrect the original EU negotiations mantra that \"nothing is agreed until everything is agreed\".\n\nMeaning: \"We'll allow no cherry picking, Mr Johnson.\"\n\nThe European Commission also insists that, contrary to Boris Johnson's claims, there will be no transition or implementation period - no zero tariffs bilateral trade between the EU and UK - in the case of a no-deal Brexit. The EU has \"zero incentive\" to agree to such an arrangement, say Eurocrats.\n\nAnd in case you thought they were joking, the EU trade commissioner's blanket rejection of Mr Johnson's assertion was re-tweeted by the EU's chief and deputy-chief Brexit negotiators:\n\nSorry, we're having trouble displaying this content. View original content on Twitter The BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.\n\nBut leading EU politicians admit (mostly behind the scenes) that, while they publicly maintain the Withdrawal Agreement is closed, they would listen if the UK's new prime minister had fresh, credible proposals for the Irish border conundrum. \"Credible\" being the key word here.\n\nGermany's ambassador to the UK, Peter Wittig, said on Tuesday that Berlin would welcome ideas on how to solve \"that famous backstop issue\".\n\nIt is hardly a secret that EU leaders would far prefer an orderly over a disorderly Brexit. Though they repeat at any and every opportunity that they are prepared for no deal.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAmbassador Wittig was speaking at a car manufacturers' summit and Germany's motor industry would, of course, take a big hit in the case of a no-deal Brexit.\n\nEU insiders predict a stress-filled, \"hot\" autumn after what they hope will be a long and lazy summer.\n\nEurope's eyes will then fix on the UK's new prime minister. But also on Dublin. The other 26 EU countries are watching for any sign of wiggle-room on the backstop - if Ireland moves, the rest of the EU is likely to follow.\n\nAnd, if it does come to a no-deal, the EU wants guarantees and details from Ireland on how it intends to protect the single market from post-Brexit UK.", "A ceremony is held by the carcass of Wolverine, a North Atlantic right whale, prior to its necropsy.\n\nCanadian officials are looking into what killed six highly endangered North Atlantic right whales in June.\n\nNecropsies are being performed on four of the six dead whales recently found in the Gulf of St Lawrence.\n\nMeasures have been put in place to prevent more deaths by reducing the potential for ship strikes and fishing gear entanglement.\n\nThey include speed limits for larger vessels in designated areas and shipping lanes.\n\nSome areas in Atlantic Canada and Quebec where the whales have been spotted have also been closed to snow crab and lobster fisheries.\n\nThe investigation was announced the day before a sixth dead whale was spotted of the coast of the Gaspé Peninsula on Thursday. Officials are currently assessing recovery and necropsy options.\n\nCanadian officials said the dead whales have been found in various locations, and there is currently no apparent pattern as to the cause.\n\nSo far, preliminary results show the cause of death of one whale - a 40-year-old female named Punctuation - as due to sharp trauma consistent with being struck by a vessel.\n\nThe results of a necropsy on a nine-year-old male, Wolverine, performed earlier this month have so far been inconclusive.\n\nA necropsy will be performed on a 34-year-old male, Comet, in the coming days, and there are plans for one on another unidentified carcass.\n\nNorth Atlantic right whales were hunted virtually to extinction by the early 1890s. They have been listed as endangered since 1970 and remain one of the world's most endangered large whale species.\n\nThe current population estimate for the North Atlantic right whale is just over 400.\n\nAn aerial view of a right whale spouting from its blow hole while feeding in US waters\n\nThe latest deaths are being met with concern by conservation officials in both the US and Canada, who fear a repeat of 2017, when 12 deaths were reported in Canadian waters and five in US waters.\n\nThe cause of those deaths - when they could be determined - was either blunt force trauma from a suspected vessel strike or acute entanglement from fishing gear.\n\nThere has been some good news for the species - seven calves have been spotted by researchers this year. Scientists reportedly did not spot any right whale newborns in 2018.\n\nThe whales have been increasingly present in the Gulf of St Lawrence in recent years, likely due to a shift in the source of plankton for food.\n\nEfforts to protect the whales have been complicated in part by the fact the whales are edging to the north and the east of where they were spotted in 2017.", "A 21-year-old student has been killed by three sharks while on holiday in the Bahamas with her family.\n\nJordan Lindsey was snorkelling at the time and reportedly couldn't hear warnings from her parents while she was in the water.\n\nJordan, from California, was taken to hospital but pronounced dead on 26 June, according to local police.\n\nIn a tribute, her family said: \"Jordan had the most beautiful, gentle soul and she will be missed deeply.\"\n\n\"She was a beloved daughter, sister, girlfriend, and friend,\" they continued.\n\nJordan was bitten by the sharks on her arms, legs, and bottom - and lost her right arm in the attack.\n\nHer family have set-up a GoFundMe page to cover costs of her funeral and to pay to bring her body back to California.\n\nShe was studying communications at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles.\n\nA statement from the university says they were \"saddened\" to hear the news about Jordan, adding she was \"a devoted animal lover and climate change advocate\".\n\nThe attack took place off the coast of Rose Island, an uninhabited private island, similar to this one pictured\n\nJordan's dad Michael told ABC News she was a \"great daughter and person.

Nissan reversed its decision to build the X-Trail SUV in Sunderland, while Sony and Panasonic moved their European HQs to the EU.\n\nIn each case, the rationale was slightly different, but many in Japan feel that failure to provide Brexit certainty counts as a broken promise, permitting the loosening of ties that used to bind the two countries.", "Nokia has been showing off its own 5G equipment at the Mobile World Congress expo in Shanghai\n\nTelecoms giant Nokia has disowned the comments one of its senior executives made about rival Huawei.\n\nNokia's chief technology officer Marcus Weldon told the BBC that the UK should be wary of using the Chinese hardware.\n\nHe said Huawei's telecoms kit had vulnerabilities that meant it posed a risk to 5G networks.\n\nIn a statement issued after the BBC story was published, the Finnish firm said his comments do \"not reflect the official position of Nokia\".\n\nIt added: \"Nokia is focused on the integrity of its own products and services and does not have its own assessment of any potential vulnerabilities associated with its competitors.\"\n\nThe statement undermines assertions made by Mr Weldon in which he said Huawei's failings were serious.\n\nHe pointed to a new report from US security firm Finite State, which detailed vulnerabilities in Huawei enterprise networking equipment.\n\n\"In virtually all categories we studied,\" the report said, \"we found Huawei devices to be less secure than comparable devices from other vendors.\"\n\nMr Weldon added: \"Some of it seems to be just sloppiness, honestly, that they haven't patched things, they haven't upgraded.

I think it's an essential tool of our negotiation.\n\n\"I don't envisage the circumstances in which it will be necessary to prorogue Parliament, nor am I attracted to that expedient.\"\n\nA no-deal exit would see the UK leave the customs union and single market overnight and start trading with the EU on World Trade Organization rules.\n\nMr Johnson has said a mechanism known as GATT 24 could be used to prevent tariffs, if there was a no-deal Brexit.\n\nBut in a letter to his rival, Mr Hunt quoted Leave-backing cabinet ministers Liam Fox and Geoffrey Cox, who have argued that this would require a deal with the EU.\n\nIn his letter, he asked: \"Who is correct: You, or the Attorney General and the International Trade Secretary?\"\n\nHe also questioned Mr Johnson's suggestion that a free trade agreement could be negotiated during an \"implementation period\", if no deal was reached - saying it was a \"fact\" that without a deal, there would be no implementation period and Brussels negotiators put the political cohesion of the EU before economics.\n\n\"We must be careful to face the facts as we find them. Will you be straight with people that no deal means no implementation period?\"\n\nAt the hustings, Mr Johnson criticised Mr Hunt's suggestion that the current Brexit deadline of 31 October could be delayed again - having been pushed back from 29 March after MPs repeatedly rejected the deal Mrs May had agreed with the EU.\n\n\"Anybody who proposes any further delay is simply going to end up eroding trust in politics, eroding people's confidence in our democratic institutions further,\" he said.\n\n\"And further weakening out great Conservative Party and our mission to lead this country.\n\n\"And it simply won't work. Kick the can again and we kick the bucket, my friends, that's the sad reality.\"\n\nHe also stood by his suggestion that the chances of leaving the EU without a deal were a \"million to one\", arguing there had been a \"change in mood in Westminster\" and that there was now a \"growing opportunity to get this thing done with style\".\n\nIn other answers from the hustings, Mr Hunt suggested he would quit as PM if he failed to deliver Brexit. Asked if he would \"fall on his sword\", he said: \"Of course, no PM is going to last any time at all if they don't deliver Brexit and deliver it very quickly.\"\n\nHe also ruled out involving Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage in negotiations with the EU: \"Nigel Farage doesn't want a deal, he wants a WTO Brexit straight away.\n\n\"And while I would be prepared to do that if there was no other alternative and I'm absolutely clear about that, I think it would be much better for our businesses and much better for our Union if we could get a deal and I haven't given up on that.\"\n\nMr Johnson dismissed his rival's pledge to cancel student debts for some entrepreneurs, saying: \"I think people, a lot of people, would automatically be defining themselves as entrepreneurs.\"\n\n\"I think the more sensible things to look at are the interest rate, and a reduction of the interest rate, also looking at the cost of maintenance because I think those are very, very high and that people are paying a lot of money back over a long time.\"\n\nThe candidates are set to face each other at an ITV debate on 9 July and at an event hosted by the Sun newspaper and talkRADIO on 15 July.", "Jeremy Hunt's promises in his race to be the next Conservative Party leader would cost between £37-65bn, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies.\n\nMr Hunt has proposed a corporation tax cut and an increase in the point at which workers pay National Insurance.\n\nHe would also raise defence spending and cut the interest on student debt.\n\nMr Hunt's campaign said the pledges were \"designed to turbocharge the economy attracting inward investment and driving growth.\"\n\nHowever, the IFS concluded the foreign secretary's plans would leave no scope to relieve the pressure on other spending departments without tax rises or risking higher borrowing.\n\nThe IFS has also analysed Mr Hunt's rival Boris Johnson's tax plan and said they would cost \"many billions\" and benefit the wealthy the most.\n\nIn its analysis of Mr Hunt's proposals the IFS said:\n\nIFS director Paul Johnson said \"like his rival\" Boris Johnson, Mr Hunt had made some \"expensive pledges\".\n\nThe IFS said Mr Hunt's policies for higher spending and lower taxes would \"amplify the long-run challenges facing the UK public finances.\n\n\"The UK already faces considerable spending pressures from an ageing population and rising health care costs.\n\n\"Mr Hunt's combination of policy proposals would exacerbate these pressures and widen a gap in the public finances that will ultimately need to be filled through some combination of higher borrowing, tax increases or cuts to other areas of spending.\"\n\nMr Hunt's campaign responded: \"By growing our economy we can afford to invest in our public services, support the lowest paid and ensure that Britain walks tall in the world again, all while ensuring that debt continues to fall.\"", "Darren Pencille, left, and Chelsea Mitchell are on trial at the Old Bailey\n\nA man was stabbed 18 times on a train in front of his 14-year-old son after a \"heated argument\" over blocking the aisle, the Old Bailey has heard.\n\nDarren Pencille denies murdering Lee Pomeroy, 51, on a Guildford to London service on 4 January.\n\nThe defendant's girlfriend, Chelsea Mitchell, is also on trial and denies assisting an offender.\n\nOpening the case, prosecutor Jacob Hallam QC said Mr Pomeroy was killed the day before his birthday.\n\nHe said the victim and his son boarded the train at London Road Station at 13:01 GMT and within five minutes, he had been stabbed by Mr Pencille, 36.\n\n\"That wound to the neck was the first of 18 wounds with a knife that Mr Pencille inflicted on Mr Pomeroy that day,\" he told jurors.\n\n\"A little over an hour after he boarded the train, and despite the best efforts of the emergency services who rushed to save his life, Lee Pomeroy was dead.\"\n\nLee Pomeroy was stabbed to death on a Guildford to London train\n\nThe prosecutor told jurors the events surrounding the killing were captured on CCTV and witnessed by other passengers.\n\nMr Pomeroy and his son had boarded the same carriage as Mr Pencille and made their way down the aisle, the court heard.\n\nMr Hallam suggested they may have been \"blocking\" Mr Pencille's way and the defendant had said: \"Ignorance is bliss.\"\n\n\"That prompted Lee Pomeroy to respond and ask what it was he meant.

The FAA recently found a potential risk that Boeing must mitigate.\"\n\nA source familiar with the situation told the BBC: \"\"During simulator testing last week at Boeing, FAA test pilots discovered an issue that affected their ability to quickly and easily follow the required recovery procedures for runaway stabiliser trim (ie, to stop stabilisers on the aircraft's tail moving uncontrollably).\n\n\"The issue was traced to how data is being processed by the flight computer.\"\n\nLast month, the FAA indicated that approval of Boeing's changes to the 737 Max could come in late June. That would have allowed test flights in early July.\n\nThere were initial hopes among airlines that the 737 Max would be back in the air during the summer, but that timetable was pushed back to late this year even before the latest news.\n\nReuters, which first reported the new issue, said during an FAA pilot simulation in which the software was activated, it had taken longer than expected to recover the aircraft.\n\nOther sources said the problem was linked to the aircraft's computing power and whether the processor possessed enough capacity to keep up.\n\nBoeing said \"we are working closely with the FAA to safely return the Max to service\" and that it believed a software fix would address the problem.\n\nBut the FAA will be looking into whether it is a hardware issue.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

A near identical aircraft, owned by the Indonesian carrier Lion Air, went down in the sea off Jakarta in October 2018.\n\nThe news that the FAA has found a \"potential risk\" in software developed for the 737 Max should come as no surprise.\n\nFirstly, fixing the plane is clearly not a simple process. Boeing has been working on the issue for the past eight months - and if a quick and easy solution had been available, perhaps the second of the two accidents could have been avoided.\n\nMeanwhile, the regulator itself is under intense pressure and its credibility is at stake. Its own actions certifying the aircraft and its relationship with Boeing have come under fierce scrutiny.\n\nIn deciding whether the aircraft is safe to fly again, it needs to be absolutely rigorous - and needs to be seen to be rigorous as well.\n\nThere's a great deal at stake here. The longer the 737 Max remains grounded, the more the costs will mount up, for Boeing and for the airlines which were counting on using the new plane.\n\nBut 346 lives have already been lost, and no-one - not Boeing, not the airlines and not the regulator - can afford another accident.\n\nPreliminary reports into both accidents have suggested they were triggered by a flight control system deploying at the wrong time, due to a faulty sensor.\n\nThe FAA has been criticised for its lack of oversight and the certification process that cleared the Max to fly.\n\nEarlier this month, Capt Chesley Sullenberger, whose landing of a crippled aircraft on New York's Hudson River was turned into a Hollywood film, told a Congressional hearing into the 737 Max that the \"crashes are demonstrable evidence that our current system of design and certification has failed us\".\n\nAirlines, regulatory authorities and equipment makers met in Montreal on Wednesday to discuss the Boeing 737 Max situation, a gathering organised by industry trade group the International Air Transport Association (IATA).\n\nFollowing the meeting, IATA director general Alexandre de Juniac said: \"The Boeing 737 Max tragedies weigh heavily on an industry that holds safety as its top priority.\n\n\"We trust the Federal Aviation Administration, in its role as the certifying regulator, to ensure the aircraft's safe return to service. And we respect the duty of regulators around the world to make independent decisions on FAA's recommendations.\n\n\"At the same time, aviation is a globally integrated system that relies on global standards, including mutual recognition, trust, and reciprocity among safety regulators.\n\n\"Aviation cannot function efficiently without this co-ordinated effort, and restoring public confidence demands it.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I see them punching each other.\"\n\nDescribing his father, he told jurors: \"Normally when someone says something to my dad, he won't let it go.\n\n\"Dad never really starts a fight. I have never seen my dad not reply to something like that.\"\n\nLee Pomeroy was stabbed 18 times on a Guildford-to-London train, the Old Bailey has heard\n\nJurors watched in silence as they viewed the CCTV footage, which initially showed Mr Pomeroy and his son buying tickets at the station and then boarding the train at London Road at the same time as Mr Pencille.\n\nIt showed the two men arguing before Mr Pomeroy followed Mr Pencille into another carriage, while his son remained where he was.\n\nThe footage then showed Mr Pomeroy being repeatedly stabbed while trying to defend himself with his hands.\n\nDet Con Marc Farmer, from British Transport Police, told the court: \"We see the first blow (that was to his neck), and then movement and we see him slash at his torso and then his thigh.\n\n\"It is quick and a frenzied attack.\"\n\nDet Con Farmer confirmed to Mr Rouse that there was no audio of the apparent verbal exchange.\n\nThe barrister said Mr Pencille walked away and was followed by Mr Pomeroy - which the police officer also confirmed.\n\n\"At the end of the carriageway is a dead end,\" Mr Rouse continued. \"He can't get out.\"\n\nMr Rouse added: \"The train is in motion and he can't get out of the doors. Before he turns to violence he resorts to using his phone.\"\n\nMr Rouse then said: \"After the blows have been exchanged - and there is no dispute Mr Pencille stabbed Mr Pomeroy - Mr Pomeroy then for the first time retreated, and it's fair to say Mr Pencille doesn't take a single step towards him.\"\n\nDet Con Farmer replied: \"Only to pick up his glasses.\"\n\nDarren Pencille and Chelsea Mitchell are on trial at the Old Bailey\n\nWitnesses who had been in the same carriage as the pair told the court they had been scared for their lives.\n\nMegan Fieberg told the court she heard the two men swearing at each other and added: \"They were physical but I didn't see the whole stabbing situation. I had already left the carriage by then.\"\n\nDescribing what Mr Pomeroy was saying, she said he \"wanted an apology\" from Mr Pencille for humiliating him in front of his child.\n\nMr Rouse asked whether Mr Pomeroy had been mocking Mr Pencille and Mrs Fieberg replied: \"Yes.\"\n\nHe said: \"You never heard anything like 'I'm going to kill him'.\"\n\nMr Pencille's girlfriend, Chelsea Mitchell, 27, of the same address, denies assisting an offender.\n\nFollow BBC South East on Facebook, on Twitter, and on Instagram.

Evidence shows that opt-out systems can make a difference as part of a wider package of measures and this bill provides further opportunities to both save and improve lives.\"\n\nHolyrood considered an opt-out system in the previous parliamentary term, but narrowly rejected a member's bill from Labour's Anne McTaggart due to \"serious concerns\" about the \"practical impact of the specific details\".\n\nThree MSPs voted against the current bill, with one - SNP backbencher Christine Grahame - voicing concerns about the wording of the bill.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nStudying for his Highers in 2011, 16-year-old Harry Prentice could not shake a breathlessness and lethargy which left him falling asleep at all times of the day.\n\nWithin minutes of a visit to his GP, he was on his way to hospital and the eventual diagnosis was that his heart was twice the size it should be, and failing.\n\n\"It was a shock, I was a 16-year-old guy - fit as a fiddle - and thought I was fine, invincible like you do at that age,\" explained Harry.\n\nThe new norm for Harry, who lives near Lanark, was then endless journeys to and from hospital as he waited for a heart transplant.\n\nHe continued: \"Once you're on the waiting list it really makes you think about the situation you're in - you think, am I going to be here in five years time?

Mr Harper said his \"instinct\" was to oppose it while Mr Stewart - despite saying he was \"wholly supportive\" of the idea at his campaign launch in London - later tweeted that he would not be voting for it.\n\nBut Dominic Raab and Esther McVey have both said they would consider shutting down Parliament early - proroguing - in order to drive through no deal.\n\nLeaving on a no-deal basis - without any agreement on the shape of the future relationship between the UK and EU - could lead to significant disruption.\n\nThe EU has previously said border checks would have to be brought in, affecting things like exports and travel and creating uncertainty around the rights of UK citizens living in the EU and vice-versa.\n\nThe government normally controls business in the Commons - but MPs have previously seized control to legislate in favour of extending the Brexit process.\n\nLabour's shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir said the motion was a \"safety valve\" designed to ensure Parliament \"cannot be locked out of the Brexit process\" in the coming months.\n\nIt would allow Parliament to push back against a new prime minister \"foolish enough\" to pursue a no-deal Brexit without MPs' consent.\n\nThat was especially important, Sir Keir argued, because the Tory leadership contest had \"become an arms race to promise the most damaging form of Brexit\".\n\nMr Barclay, though, said the motion was a \"blind motion\" because it did not specify the legislation that would be introduced under its terms.\n\nLabour had previously accused ministers of backing a \"blind Brexit\" because the future relationship was not spelled out in the withdrawal agreement - but this motion was guilty of the same approach, he said.\n\nHe argued it would be a \"fundamental change\" to the way the House operated and therefore should be opposed.\n\nThe motion has cross-party backing, including from one Tory MP - Sir Oliver Letwin - who is supporting Michael Gove in the leadership contest.\n\nIt has been signed by Jeremy Corbyn, SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford, Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable, Change UK leader Anna Soubry, Plaid Cymru Westminster leader Liz Saville-Roberts and former Green Party leader Caroline Lucas.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

But will it work?\n\nIt's not a straight vote for or against a no-deal Brexit - that would not change the fact that it is written in law and agreed with the EU that Brexit will happen on 31 October.\n\nThink of this plan not as a knockout blow in a boxing match, but the first of a complicated sequence of moves in a chess game.\n\nLabour want to pull off something similar to what happened in March, when MPs took control of parliamentary time to force the government to request an extension to the Brexit process from the EU.\n\nStep one is seizing control of business in the House of Commons, and that's clearly the plan this time around.\n\nBeyond that, the details aren't clear.\n\nCompelling the new prime minister to ask the EU to delay Brexit further is the most likely option. But the answer of course, might be \"no\".\n\nThe default position in law is that the UK will leave the EU on 31 October - and if nothing changes, Brexit will happen regardless of whether there is a deal or not.\n\nMPs wanting to stop a new PM leaving without a deal do however have a number of options at their disposal.\n\nOne would be to pass legislation requiring the government to seek an extension to the UK's membership. The EU would have to agree to an extension for it to be granted.\n\nHowever, this would first require MPs to seize control of the parliamentary agenda, as Labour is attempting.\n\nAnother would be to use a vote of no confidence to bring down a government committed to pursuing a no-deal exit.\n\nMPs could also use motions or political pressure to try and force the government into changing course.\n\nWhat questions do you have about Brexit?\n\nUse this form to ask your question:\n\nIf you are reading this page and can't see the form you will need to visit the mobile version of the BBC website to submit your question.", "The gas field is 140 miles (225km) off Aberdeen\n\nProduction has started on the massive Culzean gas field in the North Sea.\n\nOperator Total said the field, 140 miles (225km) off Aberdeen, will be responsible for 5% of the UK's gas needs when it reaches peak production.\n\nCulzean was discovered in 2008 when it was described as the largest gas find in a decade.

Earlier this year, Amazon increased its minimum wage for warehouse workers to $15 (£12) after considerable pressure from, among others, potential Democratic presidential nominee, Bernie Sanders.\n\nHe, along with Californian Congressman Ro Khanna, introduced legislation that would add an additional tax on corporations if their lowest paid employees relied on government programmes, such as food stamps, to make ends meet.\n\nThe measure was titled Stop Bad Employers by Zeroing Out Subsidies, or Stop BEZOS, for short - a reference to Amazon’s founder and chief executive, Jeff Bezos.\n\nOne of the company’s announcements was Pegasus, a new robot that is being used in the firm’s “sortation centres” - the last step before a package is handed off to a delivery company.\n\n“Resembling an orange nightstand on wheels, the two-feet-high, 3-feet-wide Pegasus drive is Amazon's newest robot designed to create greater efficiency in its sortation process so customers can receive their orders even faster,” the firm said in a blog post.\n\nAn accompanying video showed humans placing packages on to the robot, which then carried it, autonomously, to another location ready to be taken out for delivery.\n\nThe system is able to work out the quickest route for the robots to take, taking into account the hundreds of other robots moving around at the same time. A “flow control specialist” monitors the movements of up to 800 Pegasus robots at once.\n\nThe company also announced it had made Xanthus, an updated version of its pallet-moving robot used in fulfilment centres.\n\nThe firm said its robots had to date stacked more than 2 billion plastic storage boxes, known as totes.\n\nBut one task robots still struggle greatly with is picking up individual objects of varying shapes and standards - which is still a key job of the human worker, particularly in the areas of Amazon’s business that deal with food handling.\n\n“It's not humans versus machines at all,” Mr Brady told the BBC.\n\n“It's humans and machines working together to achieve a task.”\n\nDo you have more information about this or any other technology story?

So, what are the details and do their sums add up?\n\nPeople would only start to pay the higher rate of income tax when they earn at least £80,000, under Boris Johnson's plans\n\nThe plan: Raise the higher income tax rate from £50,000 to £80,000.\n\nWhat it means: At the moment, individuals have to pay 40% income tax on any earnings above £50,000. So, a person earning £55,000 a year, pays 40% on £5,000.\n\nUnder Mr Johnson's plan, the point at which the 40% higher rate kicks in would be raised to £80,000. This would not affect Scottish workers because the Scottish government sets its own income tax rates and bands.\n\nMr Johnson also wants to raise the point at which people start paying National Insurance, absorbing some of the cost by also raising the ceiling for NI.\n\nNational Insurance is a separate tax. It's paid for by workers and companies and it is meant to fund state benefits, such as the NHS.\n\nUnder this new tax regime, someone earning £60,000 a year could benefit by £1,000 a year, while someone on £80,000 or more would gain a maximum of £3,000 (because some of the benefits would be lost due to national insurance increases).\n\nBut it's wealthy pensioners who stand to benefit the most - up to £6,000 each, according to analysis from the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS). That's because pensioners don't pay national insurance to begin with.\n\nSo if someone already receives a generous work pension, not only will they be subject to less income tax (up to the new threshold), they also won't be affected by the national insurance rise.\n\nThe cost: Changing the tax system in this way would cost around £10bn a year, according to Mr Johnson. He says the bill could be funded from the £26.6bn of \"fiscal headroom\".\n\nThis \"headroom\" refers to government borrowing, which came in lower than originally expected and had been ear-marked by the chancellor for no-deal Brexit planning.\n\nHowever, if Mr Johnson chooses to fund his tax changes with this £26.6bn, it would not amount to a permanent solution. That's because the money can only be spent once.\n\nSo, to pay for the policy in the long term, Mr Johnson will need to raise taxes elsewhere, announce spending cuts or continue to fund it from government borrowing.\n\nWhat it means: A leading supporter of Mr Johnson, Health Secretary Matt Hancock, told the Times that the days of public sector pay freezes under Theresa May and David Cameron would be over if Mr Johnson was elected.\n\nPublic sector pay was frozen for two years in 2010, except for those earning less than £21,000 a year, and rises were capped at 1% in 2013. The government announced an end to the pay cap in 2017, and some public sector workers have negotiated increases above 1% since then.\n\nThe candidate himself has declined to specify by how much he would increase pay, saying only that remuneration should be \"decent\".\n\nHe has also pledged to fund increased investment in special needs education, as part of a £4.6bn boost to overall school funding.\n\nThe cost: We don't know by how much Mr Johnson wants to increase public sector pay, but the IFS says that each 1% increase in pay for the public sector workforce costs the government about £1.8bn a year.\n\nThe plan: Hire an extra 20,000 police officers by 2022\n\nWhat it means: There are 122,000 police officers in England and Wales, down from 143,000 in 2010 when Theresa May became home secretary.\n\nMr Johnson plans to reverse almost all of those cuts on the basis that \"more people on our streets means more people are kept safe\".\n\nThere has been some dispute about the link between police numbers and levels of violent crime, with Theresa May saying there was not a direct link.\n\nBut Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick has said there is \"some link\" between the two.\n\nFor police officers outside London, the lowest pay was around £25,400 in 2016 (although this differs from force to force).\n\nThat comes to £500m a year, but these costs will increase once they complete training, which takes around two years.\n\nTypically, after four years, the pay would increase to £33,700 (again outside London) - so almost £700m, but this doesn't account for training costs.\n\nThe Nottinghamshire police force estimated recruitment and training to be around £13,000 per officer in 2012 (not including salary received during training).\n\nThis would come in at about £258m for 20,000 new officers, but again, this will differ from force to force.\n\nKit Malthouse, who supports Mr Johnson, says that they would recruit special constables, who are trained as police officers but work part time, to help alleviate training costs.\n\nWhat it means: From April 2020, instead of paying 17% tax on their profits, companies would pay 12.5%.\n\nThe foreign secretary is in favour of cutting the rate of corporation tax - the tax that companies pay on their profits - to 12.5%, which is the same rate as in the Republic of Ireland.\n\nThe government is already planning a series of cuts to corporation tax, which was cut from 20% to 19% on 1 April 2017, and is scheduled to fall to 17% next year.\n\nThe idea of cutting it by another 4.5 percentage points came in a report by another Conservative MP at the end of May.\n\nThe cost: The government estimates the policy would cost about £14bn a year. That cost would be reduced if future tax takes were to be boosted by companies being attracted to move to the UK to take advantage of the lower tax rate, or if companies use the money saved to pay higher wages or invest it in improving their productivity.\n\nHow much that would reduce the cost is very hard to predict.\n\nThe plan: Take 90% of businesses out of business rates\n\nWhat it means: Business rates are a local tax paid on the use of buildings for non-domestic purposes.\n\nThe cost: We haven't seen any formal costings of this policy, but in the 2018 Budget, Philip Hammond decided to give a one-third discount on business rates to high street retail businesses with a rateable value below £51,000 in 2019-20 and 2020-21. The Treasury said that would benefit 90% of high street retail businesses.\n\nThe Office for Budget Responsibility said the discount would cost £490m this year and £450m next year.\n\nIt means we can estimate that a 100% cut for those businesses would cost an extra £900m next year and about £1.35bn a year after that.\n\nBusiness rates are currently collected by local authorities, which retain half of the money. Central government is reimbursing them for the one-third cut and would presumably also reimburse them for the 100% cut.\n\nWhat it means: If you are running a business and you buy equipment such as computers or machinery, you can deduct the amount you spend on it from your profits to reduce the amount of tax you have to pay.\n\nThere is a limit to the amount you can deduct, which is called the annual investment allowance. At the start of this year it was raised from £200,000 to £1m for two years.\n\nThe cost: We do not have a costing for this measure either, but to get an idea of the amounts of money involved, the OBR said the temporary increase to £1m would cost £600m this year.\n\nThe plan: Money for fishing, farming and defence\n\nWhat it means: Jeremy Hunt would increase spending on defence from its current level of 2% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP - the sum of everything the UK produces each year) to 2.5% of GDP by 2023-4.\n\nHe has also said he would have a \"relief programme\" for the fishing and farming sectors to help them deal with the effects of a possible no-deal Brexit.\n\nThe cost: The boost to defence spending would cost £15bn a year by 2023-4. The relief for fishing and farming would cost £6bn. Mr Hunt says his overall plans would \"kick-start the economy and create extra growth\", which would mean the government had extra money to spend.\n\nBut the disruption involved in leaving the EU with no deal is widely expected to reduce growth - at least initially - which would mean that increased taxes or borrowing or reduced spending in other areas would be required to fund the extra spending.", "Queen Elizabeth said she spent \"happy days\" at Villa Guardamangia\n\nThe Queen's former Malta home, Villa Guardamangia, has been put up for sale for nearly €6m (£5.3m).\n\nThe villa, located on the outskirts of the capital Valletta, is the only place outside the UK that Queen Elizabeth II has ever called home.\n\nShe lived there between 1949 and 1951, in the early years of her marriage to Prince Philip, who had been stationed in Malta as a naval officer.\n\nThe Grade Two listed property has since fallen into disrepair.\n\nIt is currently being listed by a luxury real estate agency, which describes it as \"an amazing grand Palazzo style property... with documented great historical value.\"\n\nThe listing says the 1,560 sq m (16,791 sq ft) property, which was built around 1900, boasts \"many authentic architectural features\", high ceilings, stables and \"various guest/servant quarters\".\n\n\"The property is just crying out for a great conversion and will make a superb residence or possibly a commercial venue,\" it adds.\n\nThe Queen and her husband lived in the villa before her coronation.

Fifteen years later that government funding was cut by the Conservatives.\n\nEver since then, the BBC has been pondering if it can afford to take on the bill. It's a cost that's rising every year as the number of pensioners continues to grow. In 2020 it's estimated there will be around 4.6 million households with at least one pensioner.\n\nThis then is a compromise; around a third of the cost will be borne by the BBC and two thirds passed on to 'wealthier' pensioners. The elderly are by far the biggest consumers of the BBC's output, the average age of BBC TV's audience is now over 62, the question is how far younger licence fee payers should subsidise these older viewers.\n\nAs consumption of traditional TV by younger viewers continues to drop there could well be questions about why they are being expected to pay for a service that the heaviest users get for free.\n\nOne in four over-65s say the TV is their main form of companionship, according to Caroline Abrahams, charity director of Age UK.\n\nShe said: \"Make no mistake, if this scheme goes ahead we are going to see sick and disabled people in their eighties and nineties who are completely dependent on their cherished TV for companionship and news forced to give it up.\"\n\nElderly people are likely to feel \"enormous anxiety and distress, and some anger too\", she said, adding: \"But in the end this is the government's fault, not the BBC's.\"\n\nThe National Pensioners Convention said the BBC \"has done the government's dirty work for it\".\n\nBut the Intergenerational Foundation, a charity which supports the interests of younger members of society, said it was fairer to make wealthier pensioners pay.\n\n\"There is simply no reason why retired judges, lawyers, bankers and doctors should receive a free TV licence when younger generations are struggling financially,\" the charity said.\n• None £745mEstimated cost to the BBC of current scheme by 2021/22\n• None £250mEstimated cost of new scheme depending on take-up\n\nFree licences were first introduced by the Labour government in 2000 at the same time as half-price licences for the visually impaired.\n\nIn 2015, the Conservative government announced the BBC would take over the cost of providing free licences for over-75s by 2020 as part of the fee settlement.\n\nFollowing the announcement, TV Licensing is advising customers receiving a free licence that they need not take any immediate action.\n\nOver the course of the next month, TV Licensing will be writing to everyone who currently has a free over-75 licence to let them know about the new scheme and make clear that they will remain fully covered until 31 May 2020.\n\nA free telephone information line will also be launched this month where older customers and their relatives can access information on the new policy and a new \"pay as you go\" payment scheme will be launched from June 2020 which will let people spread the cost of the licence in fortnightly or monthly payments.\n\nThe BBC's consultation was announced in November last year. Nearly half of respondents (48%) said they were in favour of continuing concessions to over-75s.\n\nReforming the current rules was backed by 37% of respondents, with 15% in favour of scrapping concessions of over-75s.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Oxfam whistleblower says change will take years\n\nOxfam has been severely criticised by the Charity Commission for the way it dealt with claims of serious sexual misconduct by its staff in Haiti.\n\nThe commission said there was a \"culture of poor behaviour\" at the charity, and issued it with an official warning over its \"mismanagement\".\n\nLast year Oxfam was accused of covering up claims staff sexually exploited victims of the 2010 earthquake.\n\nOxfam accepted the findings, saying what happened in Haiti was \"shameful\".\n\nClaims first emerged in The Times last year that Oxfam employees, including former country director Roland van Hauwermeiren, used young prostitutes while based in Haiti after the earthquake.\n\nAn internal Oxfam investigation in 2011 led to four people being sacked and three others resigning, including Mr Van Hauwermeiren.\n\nBut a report published by Oxfam after the investigation failed to mention sexual exploitation.\n\nThe charity commission said the incidents in Haiti identified in 2011 were not \"one-offs\", with evidence of behavioural issues as early as June 2010.\n\nThere were also issues at some of the charity's UK shops - the report highlighted 16 serious incidents involving volunteers under the age of 18.\n\nMr Van Hauwermeiren worked in Chad from 2006-09 before going to Haiti in 2010\n\nTuesday's report, which followed an 18-month investigation, found the charity failed to listen to warnings - including from its own staff, that it repeatedly fell below standards expected on safeguarding, and did not meet promises it made.\n\n\"What went wrong in Haiti did not happen in isolation,\" Charity Commission chief executive Helen Stephenson said.\n\n\"Over a period of years, Oxfam's internal culture tolerated poor behaviour, and at times lost sight of the values it stands for.\"\n\nOxfam's internal investigation into Haiti, following allegations by a whistleblower in 2011, could not conclude whether minors were involved in some of the incidents.\n\nTwo allegations of physical abuse, made by email from a 12-year-old and a 13-year-old girl, were \"suspected\" not to be genuine by Oxfam at the time.\n\nThe Charity Commission said Oxfam should have tried harder to substantiate the claims at the time, despite the lack of evidence.\n\nOxfam's chair of trustees, Caroline Thomson, said the charity accepted the findings, describing them as \"uncomfortable\".\n\n\"What happened in Haiti was shameful and we are deeply sorry,\" she said.\n\n\"It was a terrible abuse of power and an affront to the values that Oxfam holds dear.\"\n\nShe added: \"We now know that the 2011 investigation and reporting of what happened in Haiti was flawed; more should have been done to establish whether minors were involved.\"\n\nThe decision to allow Mr Hauwermeiren to resign without a fuller investigation into his conduct would not be permitted under current policies and practices, she said.\n\nThe Times had reported that Oxfam was aware of concerns about the conduct of Mr Van Hauwermeiren and another man when they worked in Chad before they were given senior roles in Haiti.\n\nMs Thomson added that every member of staff was being put through basic safeguarding training and 95% of them had already completed it.\n\nIt's rare to see such strong criticism of a charity.\n\nThe most stinging criticism was reserved for the way Oxfam was seen to be placing its own reputation - and its relationships with donors - above the need to protect victims.\n\nThe charity has been bleeding financial support since the story broke, losing 7,000 regular donors worth £14m.\n\nIt has also lost almost £20m in government funding over the last 18 months, and today's findings won't have done much to rebuild trust.\n\nThe report is incredibly strong and has done much to redress the Charity Commission's own laxity over safeguarding in the past.\n\nHowever, it was supposed to be published six months ago.\n\nFaced with an avalanche of safeguarding complaints from across the charity sector, there are still questions about whether the commission has the resources to sufficiently investigate and hold charities to account in the future.\n\nAfter the claims emerged, Haiti banned Oxfam GB from operating inside its borders and thousands of people stopped making regular donations to the charity.\n\nOxfam has also not been able to bid for government funding pending the outcome of the 18-month Charity Commission investigation.\n\nThe Department for International Development said decisions over its funding relationship with the charity would be made \"in due course\".\n\nInternational Development Secretary Rory Stewart said the revelations about Oxfam had \"shone a light on fundamental problems\", adding that there were \"no easy answers or room for complacency\".\n\nThe Charity Commission has instructed Oxfam, which has been under new chief executive Dhananjayan Sriskandarajah since January, to submit a plan on how it will address concerns about its previous conduct, in an effort to \"repair public trust and confidence\".", "Competitors have taken part in a race on office chairs in Japan.\n\nThree-person teams in the Isu-1 Grand Prix, which took place in the city of Hanyu, had to complete as many laps of the 200m (650ft) course as they could in two hours.\n\nThe event was founded 10 years ago, with a series of races scheduled across the country this year.", "Electric cars are being used to help power a small Portuguese island in the Atlantic.\n\nPorto Santo Island has begun testing a scheme in which the batteries in electric vehicles are charged by solar power during the day but at night return spare energy to the grid to power people's homes.\n\nSome experts say this form of energy storage could become a global trend.", "Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has held talks with European leaders as part of a visit to Brussels.\n\nMs Sturgeon met EU President Jean-Claude Juncker and the EU's chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier before making a speech on European policy.\n\nShe said the speech would restate her government's backing for continued EU membership and shared European values.\n\nThe SNP leader also said the Foreign Office had been \"childish\" for cutting off diplomatic support for the trip.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt - one of the candidates for the Conservative leadership - had asked that the Scottish government provide its own logistical support for the visit, due to concerns Ms Sturgeon was using the trip to undermine UK policies on Brexit and promote Scottish independence.\n\nTalks over the UK's exit from the EU have been deadlocked for months, and have now taken a back seat to the leadership contest which will decide who replaces Theresa May as prime minister.\n\nAll 10 candidates in the running have pledged to deliver Brexit, but are divided on how and when to do so.\n\nAhead of her speech at the European Policy Centre, Ms Sturgeon said people in Scotland had \"shown that they comprehensively reject Brexit and want to remain as a European nation\".\n\nShe added: \"Membership of the EU not only has huge economic benefits for Scotland, but is the basis of the core values we share around democracy, equality, co-operation and human rights.\n\n\"My engagements in Brussels are an opportunity to outline the Scottish government's support for those values and how they contribute to a better Scotland, Europe and wider world.\n\n\"On issues such as climate change and tackling inequality we can all work together to ensure the wellbeing of our citizens, as well as the wealth of member states.\"\n\nNicola Sturgeon says Scotland is open to Europe - is the feeling mutual?\n\nDuring the Scottish independence referendum in 2014, the EU was not exactly neutral.\n\nThe then European Commission President, Jose Manuel Barosso, suggested it would be \"extremely difficult\" for Scotland to become an independent member of the EU.\n\nBut Brexit - and the possibility of a no deal departure by the UK - appears to be changing some minds in Brussels.\n\nOne EU official told me there had been a \"paradigm shift\" in attitudes to Scottish independence in Brussels since the EU referendum.\n\nThat is to say that if Scotland voted to leave the UK after Brexit, the EU might be more accommodating.\n\nIt doesn't mean an independent Scotland could choose its own terms or avoid either an application process or hard choices over its border arrangements with England.\n\nBut it is, as the first minister put it, a different \"vibe\".\n\nThat may be of concern to the UK government, which has decided to withhold practical support, such as an official car, for Nicola Sturgeon on this visit.\n\nThe first minister said that was \"petty\" but the UK insisted its effort and resources must be focussed on its own objectives.\n\nThose do not include reversing Brexit or independence for Scotland, for which Ms Sturgeon is actively campaigning.\n\nMs Sturgeon is making the visit without diplomatic support from the Foreign Office, which is customarily offered for trips abroad.\n\nA spokesman for the UK government said that \"a balance must be struck to avoid supporting activities intended to campaign for policies contrary to the government's position\".\n\nHe said that Mr Hunt had \"requested that the Scottish government provide its own logistical support, adding: \"As a responsible government, we must be certain that our effort and resources overseas are focused on furthering the objectives of Her Majesty's Government.\"\n\nMs Sturgeon told BBC Scotland that the move was \"pretty childish and pathetic\".\n\nShe said: \"It's not causing me to lose any sleep, it's not making any real practical difference to my meetings here today, but I think it offers a bit of a window into what's going on in the Tory party right now.\n\n\"Not only are they ignoring Scotland's interests, they're trying to undermine the Scottish government in trying to stand up for those interests.

These diseases are eradicable and this should be done,\" he explained.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Inside the lab where they study the world's most deadly diseases\n\nThe rinderpest virus is responsible for one of the worst catastrophes in history. During an outbreak in the 1890s, it killed between 80% and 90% of cattle in eastern and southern Africa. This caused mass starvation in the region.\n\nMillions of people died as a result. In Ethiopia alone, one-third of the human population was wiped out. The toll in lives was on a scale matched only by the Black Death in Europe.\n\nA vaccination campaign eventually brought the disease under control until it was declared to have been eradicated in the wild in 2011.\n\nBut thousands of samples of the virus remained in 40 laboratories across 36 countries. If there happened to be an accident, the disease could potentially leak out and cause devastation once again.\n\nTo prevent this, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) approved a few highly secure labs and encouraged other institutes to send their rinderpest samples to these facilities.\n\nAmong them is the Pirbright Institute in Surrey, which has led efforts to record the genetic information contained in each sample and then destroy it.\n\nResearchers have been reluctant to destroy lab samples of deadly viruses in case they are needed to create a vaccine should the disease ever re-emerge. But a digital record of the virus's genetic code means that this is no longer an issue.\n\nAnd so Pirbright has been able to destroy all its samples which account for most of the laboratory rinderpest virus in the world.\n\nDr Samia Metwally, of the FAO, hopes that Pirbright's success will encourage other holding facilities to follow suit so that it is completely eliminated from the face of the Earth.\n\n\"This is a huge step by Pirbright. It sets a precedent for other countries to do the same.\"\n\nDr Monique Eloit, the OIE's director-general, told BBC News that she was \"very happy\" about the development.\n\n\"All the work done by farmers, veterinarians and scientists for such a long time is on track to minimise the risk of the re-emergence of rinderpest,\" she said.\n\nThe government's chief vet, Dr Christine Middlemiss, welcomed the news. \"It is such a devastating disease. 100% of susceptible animals become infected and die from the virus. So to have that removed as a threat is fantastic,\" she said.\n• None Scientists say virus is wiped out", "Protesters were removed from the rig by police using helicopters and boats\n\nGreenpeace activists have vowed to continue attempts to prevent an oil rig from reaching the North Sea.\n\nThe Transocean rig was towed out of the Cromarty Firth on Friday night after a six-day occupation by protesters was ended by the police.\n\nThe rig is heading to the Vorlich oil field east of Aberdeen.\n\nBut Greenpeace said its Arctic Sunrise ship is now sailing towards the 27,000 tonne rig \"to play her part in thwarting BP's plans\".\n\nBP, which has contracted the Transocean-operated rig, served Greenpeace with a court order to prevent Arctic Sunrise from joining the protest in the Cromarty Firth, north of Inverness.\n\nA spokesperson said: \"Given Greenpeace's repeated interference and reckless actions directed at our lawful business and their continued illegal defiance for court orders and police action, we have issued the injunction as a precautionary measure to protect the safety of people and operations.\"\n\nGreenpeace was served with an interdict to prevent its ship the Arctic Sunrise from joining the protest in the Cromarty Firth but the vessel is now heading towards the North Sea\n\nBut Greenpeace UK executive director John Sauven said: \"For nearly a week, our brave activists strained every sinew to stop this BP rig from drilling new oil wells and fuelling the climate emergency.\n\n\"And it's not over, our ship the Arctic Sunrise is sailing towards Scotland ready to play her part in thwarting BP's plans.\n\n\"They say we're reckless and irresponsible. We say there's nothing as reckless and irresponsible as pushing the world closer to a climate catastrophe.\n\n\"For as long as BP remains determined to look for more oil, there will be people determined to stop them.\"\n\nThe rig was due to be towed from the Cromarty Firth on Sunday night but left about midnight on Friday according to Greenpeace\n\nA total of 14 people were arrested in connection with the occupation of the oil rig between 9 June and Friday, including a man and a woman who had re-occupied the structure after the original protesters had been removed.\n\nA BP spokesman previously said: \"BP supports debate, discussion and peaceful demonstration, but the irresponsible actions of this group are putting themselves and others unnecessarily at risk, while ignoring court orders and police action.\n\n\"We share the protesters' concerns about climate change, we support the Paris Agreement and are committed to playing our part to advance the energy transition.\n\n\"However, progress to a lower-carbon future will depend on coming together, understanding each other's perspectives and working to find solutions, not dangerous PR stunts that exacerbate divisions and create risks to both life and property.\"\n\nThe rig was being towed out to sea in the Cromarty Firth when it was boarded", "Grand Union said it would get to London Paddington from Cardiff in 90 minutes\n\nA new express train service would cut journey times from Cardiff to London by 20 minutes if it is given the go-ahead.\n\nThe proposed open-access service by Grand Union Trains would run alongside current Great Western Railway trains to Paddington station.\n\nOperating on the south Wales mainline, the service would stop at fewer stations, making it a quicker journey.\n\nThe Office of Rail and Road (ORR) said it was aware of the proposal and early talks had started.\n\nThe hourly service would operate between London Paddington and Cardiff Central and could be live by December 2020.\n\nIt would stop at Severn Tunnel Junction in Monmouthshire, a station which is not currently served by Great Western's London service.\n\nThe service would run from Cardiff Central, to Newport, Severn Tunnel Junction and Bristol Parkway, then to London Paddington. It will also stop at Cardiff Parkway when it opens.\n\nGrand Union said their service would take one and a half hours - by not stopping at Swindon, Didcot and Reading - in comparison to Great Western's half-hourly service, which takes more than two hours.\n\nThe firm's managing director Ian Yeowart said: \"The trains we offer will be faster, more comfortable, we'll offer some competition so that will have a downward pressure on price.\n\n\"We look for places that deserve a better rail service and can support a better rail service.\"\n\nTrains will operate with nine coaches, offering first class, standard class and a buffet car.\n\nMr Yeowart said he has also been in talks with the Welsh Government about other improvements to rail services.\n\n\"We're not just talking about trains, we're also talking about potential infrastructure at Severn Tunnel Junction and at Cardiff Central Station so there's a lot of exciting things to happen,\" he added.\n\n\"We also plan to base the entire operation in south Wales so there would be about 135 new jobs to come into the area if we're successful.\"\n\nThe new train service would not call at Swindon, Didcot and Reading\n\nThey propose using second-hand 140mph (225 km/h) trains formed of nine coaches and a driving trailer, which have been used by London and North Eastern Railway on the East Coast Main Line.\n\nProf Stuart Cole, a former director of Wales Transport Research Centre at the University of Glamorgan, said Mr Yeowart had a \"proven record\" in this field.\n\n\"He's been in this business before, last time it was very successful,\" he said.\n\n\"He's gone for the most profitable and busiest part of the line, it's extra trains on the market and we can see what prices come to the market.\"\n\nKen Skates, the Welsh Government's minister for economy and transport, said: \"[We] welcome the ambition being shown by Grand Union Trains to address this by proposing the operation of a new, fast, limited stop, high quality service which would provide an alternative option for passengers to travel between the two capital cities.\"\n\nUnder track access rules, other rail operators are able to provide a service if a route is not deemed congested, and the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) approves an application.\n\nThe application will now be subject to a 28 day consultation period.", "Mariam Moustafa had a stroke and died in hospital a month after the attack\n\nTwo members of a girl gang who attacked a student at a bus stop in a row over a boy have been sentenced.\n\nMariam Moustafa, 18, fell into a coma after she was punched several times by a \"pack\" of assailants last February.\n\nShe died of a stroke a month later, but pathologists could not legally link the attack with her death, Nottingham Crown Court heard.\n\nMariah Fraser, 20, was given an eight-month sentence and Britania Hunter, 18, given a 12-month community order.\n\nA third accused, a 16-year-old girl who cannot be named and also pleaded guilty, was remanded back to the youth court for sentencing.\n\nSix female defendants were charged after Miss Moustafa, an engineering student, was attacked in Nottingham city centre while one of her friends tried to protect her.\n\nThey included three other teenage girls aged 18, 17 and 16, who will be sentenced later this month.\n\nDuring sentencing, Nottingham Crown Court heard the attack was \"fuelled by social media\".\n\nFraser (left), Hunter (right) and four teenagers admitted carrying out the attack\n\nOpening the facts of the case on Thursday, prosecutor Luke Blackburn said the six were not charged with manslaughter because pathologists could not legally link the attack to Miss Moustafa's death.\n\nThe hearing was told Fraser and Hunter were part of a group who filmed the attack on Miss Moustafa and watched as two others, aged 16 and 18, hit her.\n\nMr Blackburn said footage showed Miss Moustafa, an Egyptian national, looking \"frightened, passive and, towards the end, obviously unwell\".\n\nJudge Gregory Dickinson QC called the defendants aggressive and cowardly and said: \"This was not an attack motivated by hostility to race or religion.

That was in contrast to the Lionessess' opening game, when Parris and Lucy Bronze thrived down the right.\n\nDespite those early lapses, it was Mead who twice broke Argentina's resistance. The Arsenal winger played in Greenwood before she was tripped by Ruth Bravo, leading to Parris's spot-kick.\n\nThe England winger, who had buried a penalty against Scotland in England's opening game, this time went the other way and struck it with less venom, allowing Correa to tip it on to the post.\n\nThe Argentine goalkeeper also stuck out a leg to deny Mead before the break, and denied Parris again after the newly-signed Lyon forward struck a booming shot after a free-kick was cleared.\n\nAs the game reached the hour mark, it seemed as if Correa's goal was impenetrable, but the latter of two flowing moves led to Taylor's goal and the 33-year-old, who had not scored since a World Cup qualifier in April 2018 - or in 363 minutes of football - celebrated her 18th England goal with enthusiasm.\n\nHaving scored five times at Euro 2017 where England reached the semi-finals and once at the 2015 World Cup, where England finished third, she once again showed she has an appetite for the big occasion, which may prove crucial as England seek to win their first major tournament.\n\nArgentina, who did not have a team for two years between 2015 and 2017 after a lack of backing from their federation, are appearing in their first World Cup for 12 years.\n\nBack in 2007 they lost 6-1 to England, but they are a far more competitive outfit now, despite not enjoying the salaries or support of their opponents, who Neville described as being \"blessed\".\n\nThat gulf in resources was not matched on the pitch, however, as Carlos Borrello's well-drilled side got players behind the ball and defended stoutly with the kind of \"rebel spirit\" that their manager had spoken of prior to the game.\n\nThat was summed up by Correa, who palmed Parris' penalty onto the post after 28 minutes, and then superbly stopped Mead's effort before making her best save to deny Parris again.\n\nArgentina's first effort on goal was after 21 minutes, an overhit free-kick which Carly Telford, making her debut World Cup appearance at the age of 31, easily gathered.\n\nThey also only had 24% possession, yet forward Sole Jaimes and number 10 Estefania Banini caused occasional problems for the England defence, and the team's robust style certainly ruffled some of the England players.\n\nNeville's England, however, will be pleased to come through a tough test again, and give themselves a chance to rotate their squad for the final group game against Japan, who earlier beat Scotland 2-1 to sit second in the group on four points.\n\nEngland manager Phil Neville on BBC One: \"Jodie Taylor was phenomenal tonight.\n\n\"It should have been more, but I stood in the warm-up and saw their goalkeeper - she was unbelievable even in the warm-up. If you're like that before the game you're not always like that in the game, but she was outstanding.

when it can and cannot be used - and how to return a badge when it is no longer needed, such as when the holder dies.\n\nThe Local Government Association (LGA), which represents councils in England and Wales, said the review would help it \"crack down on dishonest motorists\".", "Venezuelans queue at an immigration office in the border town of Tumbes\n\nThousands of Venezuelans have rushed to cross into Peru in a bid to beat the introduction of tougher migration laws.\n\nUnder new laws introduced on Saturday, Venezuelans need to have a passport and visa to enter Peru.\n\nAuthorities say about 6,000 Venezuelans crossed from neighbouring Ecuador alone on Thursday, three times the daily average.\n\nSome four million people have fled Venezuela since 2015, according to the United Nations.\n\nThe country's imploding economy has resulted in high unemployment and shortages of food and medicine, and hundreds of thousands of people are said to be in need of humanitarian aid.\n\nMany Venezuelans will be unable to meet the new immigration requirements\n\nMarianni Luzardo was travelling to Peru's northern border with her two daughters on Friday. \"In Venezuela it is almost impossible to get a passport,\" she told the Associated Press. \"We need to get to Peru soon.\"\n\n\"Our country has opened its arms to more than 800,000 Venezuelans,\" he told reporters at an event in the northern city of Piura. \"I think it's completely logical and justified to ask them to bring visas to ensure better control of who enters.\"\n\nLatin American countries host the vast majority of Venezuelan migrants and refugees.

What we do know is that she lived her last days in what can only be described as a living hell.\n\n\"She must have felt that she was alone in the world with no-one coming to help her, which is just heartbreaking to think of.\"\n\nInverclyde Council said it was asked by the procurator fiscal not to carry out an investigation before the trial concluded.\n\nA spokesman said: \"Inverclyde's multi-agency public protection committees will now work with all the organisations involved in Margaret's case on a full, detailed examination of the events leading up to her tragic death.\"\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nThe last independent sighting of Ms Fleming, who briefly attended James Watt College before effectively being held prisoner by the couple, was when Jones' brother Richard saw her on 17 December 1999.\n\nShe did not join the rest of the family for Christmas dinner the following week. On 5 January of the following year, Jones told her mother that Margaret had run off with travellers.\n\nThere have been no sightings of her since, and detectives were unable to establish how she died or what happened to her body - although a former firefighter told the trial he once smelled what he believed was burning human flesh coming from a bonfire at Cairney and Jones' home.\n\nThe pair tried to cover their tracks by travelling to London, and letters purporting to be from Ms Fleming were posted to their home in a bid to cover up their crime.\n\nBogus diary and calendar entries were also written to suggest Ms Fleming had left the house voluntarily.\n\nDespite this her benefits continued to be paid into Jones' account, without challenge, for more than a decade.\n\nThe trial heard that a benefits investigator attempted to visit Ms Fleming in June 2012 but was told by Jones that she would not see her.\n\nThe investigator said a duty social worker should have visited the \"totally chaotic\" property to follow up on the young woman's welfare, but no-one did.\n\nWhen police were finally alerted four years later it was as a result of an application for Personal Independence Payments (PIP) - which had been filled out by Jones.\n\nIn it she wrote that Ms Fleming \"needs constant care\", had self-harmed and was \"caught eating out of a dog bowl\".\n\nA social worker phoned Jones to offer help and was told Ms Fleming had not been to the doctor, despite picking a hole in her head.\n\nPolice Scotland subsequently launched a missing persons' investigation in October 2016 but an extensive search of the house - which included two downstairs bedrooms full of rubbish - and its grounds failed to uncover any trace of Ms Fleming.\n\nDespite their suspicions, detectives did not have enough evidence to charge the couple - but that changed after Cairney made a series of outlandish claims in interviews with journalists including BBC Scotland's Suzanne Allan in October 2017.\n\nHe said Ms Fleming had become a \"gangmaster\" and was also \"buying and selling\" drugs.\n\nCairney later told the trial that he had met Margaret in London two years ago.\n\nCairney and Jones were detained on 25 October of that year at Glasgow Central Station as they attempted to board a train to London while carrying £3,500 in cash.", "The Catholic Church in Scotland needs to revamp its measures for protecting young and vulnerable people, an independent review has concluded.\n\nThe review said a better resourced and independent safeguarding service was a \"crucial step to promote transparency and restore credibility\".\n\nBaroness Liddell of Coatdyke, who led the review, said a \"a good start has been made\" by the Catholic Church.\n\nBut she said cultural change was still needed within the organisation.\n\nThe independent review group was set up to consider the response of the Catholic Church in Scotland to the recommendations of the 2015 McLellan Commission report into how the church responds to allegations of abuse.\n\nIn its first report, the independent group said they had found a willingness to change in the hierarchy of the Catholic Church but progress still had to be made.\n\nThe group said the Catholic Church should give \"detailed and urgent consideration to the creation of a strengthened, resourced and independent Scottish Catholic Safeguarding Service (SCSS) with appropriate professional support as a crucial step to promote transparency and restore credibility\".\n\nIt said investment was needed to create a professional safeguarding service and that much could be learned from the organisational changes made in the Catholic Church of Ireland.\n\nIt added: \"The leadership of the church must take ownership of driving the change necessary to gain a level of confidence that lessons have been learned.\n\n\"Monitoring progress is essential, but without cultural change the job will be only half done\".\n\nA review of whistle blowing procedures was also recommended.\n\nBaroness Liddell led the review of the Catholic Church's response to the McLellan Commission\n\nThe group also recommended each diocese should have an independent person to whom survivors can turn for advice, adding \"much still needs to be done to ensure victims of abuse are seen, heard and supported by the church and the process of healing begins to take place\".\n\nBaroness Liddell, a former Scottish Secretary, said: \"The review group have concluded that there is a need to again review the SCSS to ensure it is properly resourced and empowered to give standardised and unconditional support and scrutiny to every diocese in ensuring high quality safeguarding practice and the right culture.\n\n\"We have found a willingness to adopt that change, but true progress can only come about as a result of deep analysis of strengths and weaknesses.\"\n\nBishop Joseph Toal, who oversees the work of the SCSS, said: \"We welcome their report and we shall take time to give it serious consideration.\n\n\"Since setting up the independent review group, we have taken steps to improve safeguarding practices in all eight dioceses in Scotland.\n\n\"We are determined to apply what we learn, both from the steps we have already taken and from the group's report, and to ensure that the highest standards of safeguarding practice are met throughout the church in Scotland.\"", "It is June 1998 and Paula Rego is furious. Her people, the Portuguese people, had not turned up in sufficient numbers to vote in the recently held national referendum to change the country's conservative abortion law.\n\nAs someone who had endured the life-threatening brutality of back-street abortions she was dismayed the Portuguese - particularly the women - had passed up the chance to legalise the termination of pregnancies on request up to 10 weeks from conception.\n\nThe wholly avoidable deaths and distress suffered by thousands of women resorting to illegal abortions every year would continue. No wonder her father had said Portugal was no place for a woman, before packing off his talented teenage daughter to England to hone her painterly skills at The Slade School of Fine Art in London.\n\nShe sat in her Camden Town studio and fumed, determined to do something about the situation; to change public opinion back home; to make a difference. Which she did (the law was changed in 2007). By doing what she always did when overwhelmed with anger. She created a group of troubling, ominous images.\n\nPaula Rego's abortion series began with this dark and searingly honest Triptych, 1998\n\nRego's abortion pictures are as confrontational and direct as a John Humphrys interview.\n\nThere's no flim-flam, no tip-toeing around the topic: she gets straight to the point… which is darkly ambiguous.\n\nShe is both explicit and vague.\n\nThere is an equivocation that makes for uncomfortable viewing. Her truth resides in psychological complexity however awkward it may be. To Rego, the grim reality of a back-street abortion is not intellectually straightforward. It is not simply a case of a bad thing happening.\n\nLook at any of the imposingly large pictures she made in this series and you will be disturbed.\n\nThere is an uneasy eroticism bound up in the pain and the squalor. The schoolgirls and young women depicted challenge the unseen figure with a physicality and preparedness. Have they girded up their loins in anticipation of an impending termination or something else?\n\nWelcome to Paula Rego World, where there is always something nasty in the woodshed.\n\nWith Untitled No. 5, 1998 and others in her abortion series, Paula Rego says \"they are not pictures of victims\"\n\nTo see a Rego picture is to be thrust into the midst of a sinister gothic drama. A fat-ankled lady wearing a walnut-like skirt bends down to lift a prone dog by its front legs in Snare (1987). She leans forward as if to give the animal a sensual kiss, a red rose in the foreground suggests love. Near it, a crab lies powerless on its back mirroring the dog's vulnerability. It is rich with symbolism and menace.\n\nIt is also technically very good.\n\nThe red-to-brown palette has the tonal harmony of Picasso's impeccable portrait of Gertrude Stein (1905-6). The suggested volume of the figures is as convincing as a mirage in the desert. And the weight the lady's legs bear, and pressure of the grip with which she holds the dog, are palpable.\n\nIt is a very good figurative painting.\n\nSnare, 1987 is a key work full of symbolism - with the skirt concealing \"secrets\"\n\nIt marks the moment Rego found her signature style.\n\nThere had always been a strong narrative element to her work, whether back in the 1960s when she was making cut-up collages like The Imposter (1964) critiquing the Estado novo authoritarian regime in Portugal. Or, in the early '80s with abstracted, cartoon-like paintings such as Red Monkey Offers Bear A Poisoned Dove (1981), lampooning the love triangle she constructed between her husband and her paramour.\n\nPaula Rego criticised the Portuguese dictatorship in works like The Imposter, 1964\n\nBut these were works in progress towards the stylised tableaus and heavy-featured figures that are now instantly recognisable as a Paula Rego. Hers is an idiosyncratic aesthetic heightened later by the use of oil pastel crayons instead of acrylic paint, a mid-career decision made - I am told - in part to help her stop smoking.\n\nTurn 180 degrees from the Abortion Series hanging in the central space of the MK Gallery, and there, on the opposite wall, are her Dog Women pictures from the early 1990s.\n\nThey were inspired by the French Impressionist painter, Edgar Degas. He was an artist famous for his use of pastels and elevated perspective, from which he portrayed dainty dancers in ballet rehearsals. His representations of a woman's physique and inner life were voyeuristic, with a hint of the dirty-old-man about them. Rego's couldn't be more different.\n\nDegas' viewpoint of looking down on the model can be seen in Rego's Sleeper, 1994\n\nDancers, 1884-1885 by Degas, who influenced Rego with what she says were \"his marvellous use of pastels\"\n\nHer Dog Women are more like werewolves; snarling creatures that are both loyal and fiercely independent. The pictures are a response to the death of her husband, the artist Victor (Vic) Willing whom she met while a student at The Slade.\n\nShe considered Vic her intellectual and artistic superior, a point of view he was in no rush to counter. His critical eye helped her work develop but petrified his own. Life got complicated. He was already married. She went back to Portugal.\n\nVic left his wife and went to live with Paula. He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. They both had affairs. Her father died. Vic took over the family business and ran it into the ground. They returned to London, penniless. Paula found a lover to help pay the way. Vic began to paint again shortly before he died.\n\nTheirs was a passionate, painful, profound relationship, which Rego renders in pastel with disarming sincerity. Woman becomes dog-like, part domesticated and part wild animal. She lies on her owner's jacket in Sleeper (1994), is kicked out of bed in Bad Dog (1994), and roars in rage in Dog Woman (1994).\n\nPaula Rego with her husband Victor Willing, with whom she had a passionate but complicated relationship\n\nPaula Rego's belief that \"every woman's a dog woman, not downtrodden, but powerful\" is reflected in Dog Woman, 1994\n\nBut it is in Sit (1994) that Rego captures the specific and the universal of her marriage to Vic with an emotional intensity you won't quickly forget.\n\nThe female figure is doing as she has been told, sitting obediently in her chair. Her hands are behind her back, possibly bound. Her feet are crossed in the manner of the crucified Christ. She is pregnant.\n\nShe looks up and away at her tormentor, her owner, her lover. She is trapped, subjugated, but in no way tamed. Her eyes blaze with defiance, her body emits power. There is an air of sexuality and violence, love and hate; beauty and the grotesque.\n\nObedience and defiance are apparent in Sit, 1994, which seems to be a stark metaphor about Rego's marriage\n\nIt's not the best image ever created. It is not even the best image Paula Rego has ever created - The Dance (not in this exhibition) - is better.\n\nWe've seen plenty of male artists picturing woman in myriad different ways, but who else has painted the world from a female point of view in the manner described by Paula Rego?\n\nLouise Bourgeois and Frida Kahlo had similar concerns, and expressed them just as unflinchingly, But Rego's voice is more literary, painterly and poetic in the way of Edgar Allan Poe. She references the Brontë sisters, Edvard Munch, William Hogarth and Francisco Goya.\n\nShe is a romantic surrealist with a satirist's cutting edge.\n\nThe Duchess of Alba, 1797 was painted by the Spanish artist Goya who influenced the Portuguese-born Rego\n\nThe figure in Angel, 1998 is a symbol of female power and strength\n\nQuite why she is not more famous is difficult to fathom. Maybe her gender and style went against her? A bit too much for all those buttoned-up male museum directors whose stripped back modernist tastes ruled the roost for far too long.\n\nTheir time has come and gone.\n\nI can't recall another exhibition season quite like this summer's, when there are so many monographic shows dedicated to female artists being staged across the country.\n\nIt brings to mind the female figure in Sit. She knew her time would come. And so it has. It is now.", "An orphaned baby wallaby is being hand reared in a rucksack after his mother died of pneumonia.\n\nThe tiny four-month-old joey, named Riley, has to be fed every four hours and carried everywhere in a substitute pouch by a keeper at Studley Grange Butterfly World and Farm Park near Swindon.\n\nJulia Stewart, who has been looking after Riley, said it was \"like having a baby or being pregnant all over again\".", "Two more hospital patient deaths have been linked to an outbreak of listeria in pre-packed sandwiches and salads.\n\nFriday's announcement from Public Health England (PHE) takes the number of confirmed cases from six to nine and the deaths from three to five.\n\nLast week PHE confirmed two patients from Manchester Royal Infirmary and one at Aintree Hospital had died.\n\nSandwiches and salads from the Good Food Chain linked to the outbreak have been withdrawn and production stopped.\n\nEvidence suggested all individuals ate the affected foods before the product withdrawal took place in hospitals on 25 May, PHE said.\n\nThe chain -

Are the tankers guarded or escorted? Do the tankers have CCTV? How do we make the Strait of Hormuz safe? Is it an act of terror?\n\nA lot of good questions there. I suppose if it turns out to be a state actor, e.g. Iran, behind these attacks then one would not call them \"terrorist\" as such. Striking at another country's merchant ships might in some circumstances be considered an act of war.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter?\n\nA concerted effort to hamper normal shipping in the Gulf would also clearly have significant strategic implications. Currently tankers are not guarded, though in the past, e.g. during the Iran-Iraq war, a convoy system was introduced to shepherd tankers through these confined waters accompanied by warships.\n\nClearly, experts will now be assessing the extent of the damage to the two vessels. Modern merchant ships may well have CCTV on board to monitor key areas. How much help this might give to any investigation is unclear.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nAnonymous: The Iranian government's past behaviour is a good indicator of their future intentions to create havoc if they are not stopped: but how?\n\nThis is certainly how the US and its allies see it. Iran has made threats against merchant shipping in the Gulf and, in the US view, is a highly destabilising actor in the region.\n\nIran clearly takes a very different view, insisting it has a right to pursue its own regional interests and specifically that it did not target any of these tankers.\n\nWhat people say and what people do may be different. Iran resents the US intrusion into the Gulf. It is opposed to US policy in the region in Syria and elsewhere.\n\nThe danger is that far from being frightened by the reinforced US military presence in the Gulf it may feel that it has some latitude to push back. This is one of the dangerous elements in this equation.\n\nRay: In this day and age with so much satellite observation why isn't there more proof of who the attackers are?\n\nWell, you are right, satellites can be helpful but many of the most capable intelligence-gathering variety tend to belong to a very small group of countries and even then their coverage is not total. They need to be tasked to look at specific areas.\n\nI have no doubt the US is monitoring Iranian activity in the Gulf from a variety of platforms: satellites; aircraft; communications and signals intercepts; radar tracking and so on. Governments tend to be cautious - especially the Americans - about showing their satellite data. Often they do not want to reveal the full extent of their capabilities.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nAs an aside, one of the most interesting developments over recent years is the use of civilian satellite data by security researchers and think tanks to significantly amplify our knowledge and to provide a separate source of satellite intelligence. This has, however, generally been used to study fixed locations, e.g. North Korean or Iranian rocket or nuclear facilities. It is very hard for such groups to monitor an area like the Gulf in real-time.\n\nHarry: I want to know how many vessels were hit by mines prior to the US escalating their presence in the region.\n\nThe \"escalation\" of the US military presence is to some extent a propaganda ploy by the US. The presence of a US aircraft carrier battle group for example - currently the USS Abraham Lincoln - is far from unusual. There has indeed been some reinforcement, notably a small number of warplanes; the return of a Patriot anti-missile battery; and a small amphibious unit.\n\nAgain, it is all about sending signals rather than necessarily preparing for conflict. But there is no doubt that the US retains a formidable military capability in the region.\n\nAs to chronology, the earlier limpet mine attack on the four vessels was on 12 May. Prior to this (around 10 May) the US had announced it was stepping up its deployments to the region following what it said were concerns that Iranian elements or proxy forces were planning a number of attacks against US interests. Specifically, they claim to have seen missiles being loaded onto boats. Subsequently that threat seems to have passed, but in the meantime the four tankers were mined.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Similar tactics to North Korea?\n\nAnd James: Do you think it was Iran behind these latest attacks, or is it USA trying to stir things up whilst Iran host Shinzo Abe, Japanese PM?\n\nLet's cut to the chase here. Is Iran the most likely country to be responsible for the attacks - probably yes.\n\nHas the United States made a 100 per cent case against Tehran? Not yet.\n\nWill Iran ever admit to these attacks even if its forces did carry them out? Clearly no.\n\nIs anyone else going own up to carrying them out? No.\n\nIt is not the BBC's job to ascribe blame but it is our job to bring the evidence to you, to describe the circumstances; and to report and to weigh-up what different people have to say. You then must come to your own conclusion.\n\nAs you can imagine many of the messages we get refer to wild conspiracy theories which betray more about their author's thinking than they do an assessment of real day-to-day events.\n\nThe US, having walked away from the nuclear deal, is clearly waging a campaign to pressure Iran. But to what end is not clear.\n\nThe demands made by key US officials of Tehran are simply unrealistic. The Trump Administration seems to be unclear as to its strategic goals.\n\nThinking the nuclear deal was a bad one and walking away from it is all very well. But to get a better deal in Mr Trump's terms appears to require Iran to radically change its behaviour and outlook; to almost cease being Iran. That is why critics of Mr Trump say that he really wants regime change in Tehran.\n\nThere certainly are people in his administration who support this. But equally Mr Trump, despite all his tweets and bluster, does not want to embark upon new overseas military commitments.\n\nIt also has to be said that all the other countries or organisations that were party to the nuclear deal (the JCPOA as it is known) think that whatever its flaws, that deal was better than no deal.\n\nThanks for all the questions.", "Martin Morris has a collection of 36,000 Marvel and DC comics built up over decades.\n\nThe 63-year-old, from Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, started his collection when he was aged just five.\n\nHis most valuable comic, a 1962 edition that introduced Spider-Man for the first time, is thought to be worth £10,000.\n\nMr Morris has decided to sell them on eBay after having a heart attack and plans to spend the money on travelling the world.", "Last updated on .From the section Cycling\n\nChris Froome says he is \"fully focused\" on getting \"back to his best\" after the \"major setback\" of his high-speed crash on Wednesday.\n\nThe four-time Tour de France champion suffered a fracture to his neck as well as a fractured right femur, elbow and ribs, plus a broken hip.\n\nFroome, 34, is likely to spend \"at least six months\" away from cycling, says the surgeon who operated on him.\n\n\"I know how lucky I am to be here,\" the Briton said in a statement .\n\n\"Whilst this is a setback and a major one at that, I am focusing on looking forward.\n\n\"There is a long road to recovery ahead, but that recovery starts now and I am fully focused on returning back to my best.\"\n\nThe crash happened during a practice ride before stage four of the Criterium du Dauphine in Roanne, France.\n\nIn footage captured by ITV4 minutes before the incident, a team-mate tells Froome \"you don't have to take risks, Chris\" as he takes both hands off the handlebars to put on a jacket.\n\nBut moments later, Froome took his hand off his handlebars again to blow his nose and was travelling at 54km/h when a gust of wind caught his front wheel, causing him to hit a wall.\n\nHe was airlifted to Saint-Etienne Hospital, where he is continuing his post-surgery recovery.\n\n\"This is obviously a tough time but I have taken a lot of strength from the support over the last three days,\" Froome added. \"The outpouring of support has been really humbling and something I would never have expected.\"\n\nFroome faces six weeks in hospital and is not expected to compete again in 2019.

Tory leadership: Rivals insist there must be no 'coronation' for Boris\n\nRivals for the Conservative leadership have said there must be no uncontested \"coronation\" for leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson.\n\nSeveral candidates said the party needed to learn from the experience of electing Theresa May unopposed in 2016.\n\n\"Let's not make the same mistake again,\" said Home Secretary Sajid Javid.\n\nIt comes as Mr Johnson expressed fears about damaging \"blue-on-blue\" attacks in forthcoming TV debates.\n\nWhile he has agreed to take part in the BBC's debate on Tuesday, Mr Johnson will not be taking part in Sunday's debate on Channel 4, with his team reportedly having reservations about its proposed format.\n\nMr Johnson was criticised for avoiding scrutiny and taking a \"presidential\" approach to the contest to be the next Tory leader and prime minister by International Development Secretary, and fellow contender, Rory Stewart.\n\n\"The whole genius of British politics is that we don't behave like American presidents, sweeping up in a motorcade. We're all about talking to people,\" Mr Stewart said.\n\nMr Stewart said that Conservative members \"deserved to have a choice\" in the final ballot and \"coronations are not the way to do democratic politics\".\n\nHis comments were echoed by Mr Javid, as he arrived at a London meeting for leadership candidates to speak to party members.\n\n\"We had a coronation the last time. That didn't work out well, so let's not make the same mistake again,\" said Mr Javid.\n\nSenior Conservative Party figures were reportedly drawing up plans for other candidates to withdraw from the contest after Mr Johnson gained 114 votes in the first ballot - more than double his nearest rival, Mr Hunt.\n\nThe Daily Telegraph said that the Tory whips' office drew up the plan to avoid weeks of internal party conflict.\n\nIt would mean Mr Johnson would be the only candidate to go forward to the final postal ballot of party members, making his election a formality.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt told the BBC that most people wished \"there had been more scrutiny\" in 2016. He pledged to emulate David Cameron in the 2005 leadership contest, who came from behind to earn a victory that \"shocked everyone\".\n\nMr Johnson avoided reporters as he arrived at the meeting - a hustings organised by the National Conservative Convention, where he and other leadership candidates will address potential voters.\n\nEarlier, former Brexit secretary Dominic Raab said the next party leader needed to be thoroughly tested in the heat of debate.\n\n\"Everyone is going to have to demonstrate that they have not just the vision, but the nerve and mettle to deal with the EU and with a minority government,\" he told The Daily Telegraph.\n\n\"If you can't take the heat of the TV studios, what chance of taking the heat of the negotiating chamber in Brussels?\"\n\nHe also contrasted his own background as the grammar school-educated son of a refugee with the \"privileged elite\", and said he would be more likely to unite working class and middle class voters.", "Tanya Marston was told she was infected with the same strain that killed three people\n\nA woman infected with a potentially fatal strain of listeria by a hospital sandwich says she is lucky to be alive.\n\nTanya Marston, 38, was being treated for Crohn's disease when she ate a contaminated sandwich at the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford, Kent.\n\nThree patients have died in the outbreak, linked to The Good Food Chain salads and pre-packed sandwiches.\n\nThe hospital trust apologised to Ms Marston for the \"additional stress and discomfort\" she suffered.\n\nMs Marston said she was due to be discharged from a four-week hospital stay last month when her temperature \"spiked\".\n\nMedics took blood samples and she was later called back into hospital and given intravenous anti-biotics after tests showed she was infected.\n\nShe said she \"counts herself very lucky\" her elevated temperature led to the infection being diagnosed.\n\n\"I'm really grateful that they took the blood cultures,\" she said.\n\n\"If that hadn't been done, I could be one of these people that has died.\"\n\nShe added: \"There is a duty of care there and I'm wondering what opportunities may have been missed to get to the point where people are poisoned by the food that hospitals are giving them.\"\n\nA letter from Dr Paul Stevens, medical director at East Kent Hospitals University trust, to Ms Marston said it was \"most likely that you acquired the bug from sandwiches given to you by the hospital\".\n\nPublic Health England (PHE) said six patients had been affected by the outbreak. Two patients at the Manchester Royal Infirmary and one at Aintree Hospital have died.\n\nPHE said infections in healthy people usually go unnoticed or cause mild illness, but can have more serious impacts in people with pre-existing health problems or pregnant women.\n\nThe NHS trust apologised for the \"additional stress and discomfort\"\n\nNorth Country Cooked Meats, which supplied the Good Food Chain, subsequently produced a positive test result for the outbreak strain of listeria, PHE said.\n\nThis business and North Country Quality Foods, which it distributes through, have voluntarily ceased production.\n\nThe Good Food Chain Ltd said the company's production facility in Stone, Staffordshire, was \"cross contaminated by an ingredient from one of its approved meat suppliers\".\n\nA spokesman for North Country Cooked Meats said it was \"currently co-operating fully with the environmental health and the Food Standards Agency in their investigations\".\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nIn the hours after two apparent attacks on tankers in the Gulf of Oman on Thursday, the US military released video footage which it said proved Iran was behind them.\n\nThe footage was said to show Iranian special forces removing a mine which had failed to explode.\n\nThe footage, though far from conclusive, was used by the US to make a more compelling case than earlier assertions of Iranian complicity in attacks in the region, which had not been accompanied by any evidence.\n\nBut a key question remains - what would be Iran's motive in attacking a Japanese and a Norwegian tanker carrying petrochemicals from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to Singapore and Taiwan?\n\nIran has come under massive economic pressure over the past year, since US President Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal and re-imposed some of the most aggressive sanctions in US foreign policy history - targeting Iran's oil sales, wider energy industry, shipping, banking, insurance and more.\n\nSome of the sanctions, because of their secondary nature, are designed to dissuade other nations from purchasing Iranian oil, the exports of which bring in about 30% of Iran's revenue.\n\nAnd they have managed to bring down Iran's oil exports by more than a third.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence the US says proves Iran's involvement in attacks on two tankers\n\nSo far, Iran has in response pursued a policy of strategic patience. But if it was behind Thursday's attacks, what we may be seeing is the end of that policy.\n\nThe strategic patience may have run out.\n\nIran clearly changed tack last month after the US suspended sanctions waivers which had allowed certain countries to buy oil from Iran - significantly accelerating the Trump administration's goal of driving down Iran's exports to zero.\n\nIran's response was to scale back its commitments under the nuclear deal and to announce that, if Iran could not export its oil, no other country would be allowed to export theirs.\n\nAbout 30% of the world's seaborne oil transports travel through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic sea passage in the Gulf, on Iran's south coast.\n\nIran has made threats in relation to the strait before - but never acted on them.\n\nEven back in 2012, when the EU imposed an oil embargo against Tehran as part of a broader sanction regime adopted against the country because of the nuclear impasse, Tehran refrained from closing the passage.\n\nBut the re-imposition of sanctions recently by the US has significantly ratcheted up the pressure on Iran, pressure that would go some way to explaining why it might seek to threaten the international oil trade, while its own oil sits bounded by its borders.\n\nThe risk of such a strategic move is significant - the fallout is potential military escalation with the US and its allies in the region.\n\nIt is not a gamble that would have been made quickly or lightly.\n\nIt would have been taken by consensus by all the main heads of the different Iranian political institutions, with Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards (IRGC) playing a significant part given their influence over all regional dossiers, and the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, having the final say over all matters of security and international affairs.\n\nIf Iran is indeed behind these attacks, it would demonstrate that the country's key decision makers feel the risk of military escalation is one worth taking because of the lack of alternative options.\n\nIran may suspect that the risk is lower than it first seems, because Mr Trump does not want a war.\n\nRecent statements by the US president suggested that despite his bellicosity, he is open for talks with Iran without pre-conditions.\n\nThe Iranians will also be mindful however that Mr Trump's National Security Adviser John Bolton, a long-time critic of Iran, has openly called for the US to confront Iran.\n\nIf strategic patience is in fact at an end, Iran may feel that only by displaying the range and scale of its potential destabilising activities - including disruption of the international oil trade it has been barred from - can it increase its leverage with the US, and pull itself out from under the punishing sanctions its old foe has imposed.\n\nDr Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi is a Research Fellow, Middle East Security, at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies", "Two boats were spotted separately in the English Channel off the Kent coast\n\nTwo boats containing 40 migrants, including children, have been intercepted off the Kent coast.\n\nAll those on board said they were from Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan, the Home Office said.\n\nAll the migrants have been medically assessed and transferred to immigration officials, a spokesman said.\n\nAn eyewitness said he saw one boat off St Margaret's Bay in Kent at about 05:30 BST with the occupants being given life vests before being rescued.\n\nPaul Jolliffe told the BBC he heard a siren and looked out of his window to see a Border Force boat.\n\nHe said officers used loudhailers to talk to the migrants before they were transferred to the Border Force vessel.\n\nA total of 794 people have been intercepted in small boats since 3 November 2018.\n\nThe Home Office spokesman said: \"Anyone crossing the Channel in a small boat is taking a huge risk with their life and the lives of their children.\n\n\"It is an established principle that those in need of protection should claim asylum in the first safe country they reach and since January more than 35 people who arrived illegally in the UK in small boats have been returned to Europe.\"\n\nA note on terminology: The BBC uses the term migrant to refer to all people on the move who have yet to complete the legal process of claiming asylum.

Jeremy Hunt: \"We are democrats who want to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBoris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt have made their pitch to be the next prime minister at the first of 16 Conservative Party hustings.\n\nThe two contenders for Number 10 laid out their vision for the country at a conference in Birmingham.\n\nMr Johnson said these were \"dark days\" for his party, but insisted he could turn things around.\n\nBut his rival warned members not to elect the \"wrong person\" and risk \"catastrophe\".\n\nMr Johnson said the most important thing was to \"get Brexit done\".\n\nHe said: \"My ambition is to unite this country and our society... let's take Britain forward.\n\n\"We need to discover a new confidence in our country.\"\n\nThe former mayor of London featured on most of Saturday's newspaper front pages following reports by the Guardian that police were called to his London home after neighbours reported \"slamming and banging\" in the early hours of Friday morning.\n\nThe Metropolitan Police Service have said they will not be taking any further action following the episode.\n\nAsked by the hustings moderator, LBC presenter Iain Dale, whether character mattered when choosing a prime minister, Mr Johnson said: \"I don't think people want to hear about that.\"\n\nAccused of ducking questions, Mr Johnson said: \"People are entitled to ask me what I want to do for the country.\"\n\nHis rival, Mr Hunt, said the UK was in a \"very serious situation\".\n\nHe continued: \"Get things wrong and and there will be no Conservative government, and maybe even no Conservative Party.\n\n\"Get things right and we can deliver Brexit, unite the party and send [Labour leader Jeremy] Corbyn packing.\"\n\nBut he warned that if Tory party members elected the \"wrong person\" as leader then \"catastrophe awaits\".\n\nMr Johnson, meanwhile, said he would prepare for a no-deal Brexit if he became PM.\n\nHe said: \"We must be able to come out on WTO terms, so that for the first time in these negotiations we carry conviction.\n\n\"And it is precisely because we will be preparing between now and 31 October for a no-deal Brexit that we will get the deal we need.\"\n\nHe repeated his previous claim that it was \"eminently feasible\" for the UK to leave the EU by 31 October, saying he intended to make it happen.\n\nThat is the date that the EU's membership extension runs out, and if nothing has changed, the UK leaves without a deal.\n\nTheresa May officially stood down as Tory leader on 7 June and will cease to be prime minister in the week commencing 22 July.\n\nAn initial list of 10 candidates to replace her was whittled down to Mr Hunt and Mr Johnson in a vote by Tory MPs.\n\nIn the fifth and final round on Thursday, Boris Johnson came out on top with 160 out of the 313 votes cast. Mr Hunt received 77 votes and Michael Gove was knocked out with 75.\n\nOne questioner at the hustings wanted to know whether Mr Johnson's approach to British business in the context of Brexit was as \"cavalier and careless\" as previously, when he used an expletive.\n\nHe replied: \"I believe passionately in UK businesses, and as foreign secretary I spent a lot of my time promoting UK businesses at home abroad.\"\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary.\n\nHe said: \"I would do so with a heavy heart. But if we have to in the end I would do that.\"\n\nOf a mooted renegotiation with Brussels, he said: \"If we send the wrong person there's going to be no negotiation, no trust, no deal, and if Parliament stops that, maybe no Brexit.\n\n\"Send the right person and there's a deal to be done.\"\n\nAnd challenged over the fact he campaigned for Remain in 2016, the would-be premier said: \"Look at my record since that referendum.\n\n\"I have been very clear on every occasion... I have voted for Brexit.\"\n\nIn another jibe at his rival, Mr Hunt warned members not to elect a Conservative \"populist\" to oppose \"hard-left populist\" Jeremy Corbyn.\n\nReferring to himself, he said: \"Or we could do better and choose our own Jeremy.\"\n\nHe continued: \"If Corbyn gets into Downing Street there will never be Brexit.\n\n\"That's why it's so important that we hold together our Conservative and DUP family and deliver Brexit.\"\n\nMr Hunt said he would increase defence spending and called for Conservatives to have a \"social mission\", focusing on social care for older people.\n\nHe also vowed to get more young people voting Tory.\n\nAnd he promised: \"I will never provoke a general election before we have left the EU.\"\n\nMembers will receive their ballots between 6 and 8 July, with the new leader expected to be announced in the week beginning 22 July.", "US President Donald Trump announces additional sanctions on Iran, but says it is possible for the country's ailing economy to recover if its leaders change course.\n\nHe says he is open to reaching a deal with Iran that would boost its prosperity.", "The two men were attacked on Manningham Road, Anfield, as they made their way home\n\nPolice are hunting three boys in connection with an \"appalling\" homophobic knife attack on two men.\n\nThe men were assaulted at about 21:20 BST on Saturday as they walked down Manningham Road, Anfield, Liverpool.\n\nPolice said three boys, aged between 12 and 15, began by making \"homophobic insults\" before one of them produced a knife and attacked the men.\n\nOne of the victims suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries to his head and neck. Both are in hospital.\n\nMerseyside Police said the men, both in their 30s, had been \"left incredibly shaken by the incident\".\n\nDet Insp Tara Denn said: \"This was an appalling and unprovoked attack on two men simply making their way home.\"\n\n\"The hate and violence that has been inflicted on them is simply unacceptable and won't be tolerated on the streets of Merseyside,\" she added.\n\nDetectives have urged any witnesses to the attack to come forward.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Despite the prevalence of female leaders in the past 20 years at Holyrood, the number of female MSPs has fallen\n\nDiversity among the Scottish Parliament's elected representatives has \"gone backwards\" in some ways, MSPs have warned in a new BBC documentary.\n\nIt comes 20 years after the first MSPs took their seats at Holyrood.\n\nDespite the recent prevalence of female leaders, the 2016 Scottish Parliament election saw fewer women elected compared with 1999.\n\nThe parliament has also elected only four MSPs from ethnic minority backgrounds in the past two decades.\n\nThe 1999 Scottish Parliament election returned 48 women to the chamber out of 129 MSPs. By the 2016 election that number had fallen to 45.\n\nFormer Scottish Labour leader Iain Gray, who was first elected to Holyrood in 1999, told the documentary, titled Children of the Devolution: \"We've never had a black woman MSP, that's never happened in 20 years.

But the will is there.\"\n\nThe first episode of the documentary will reflect primarily on the early years of the new Scottish Parliament, which was formally opened by the Queen on 1 July 1999.\n\nOne early controversy also centred around the issue of equality and moves by the then Labour-Liberal Democrat executive to scrap the controversial Section 28 or clause 2A law that banned the \"promotion\" of homosexuality in schools.\n\nA high-profile campaign to keep the clause was led by businessman Sir Brian Souter, who funded a postal referendum on the issue.\n\nAfter months of bitter political argument, MSPs voted to repeal the law in June 2000.\n\nRuth Davidson told the programme the 2014 law change on same-sex marriage brought her to tears\n\nScottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson said: \"I really hated that idea that one rich person could have ownership over a whole idea, it really brought home to me that it is not always a fair playing field and that really stuck in my craw.\"\n\nMs Davidson also reflected on the 2014 law change that would allow same-sex couples to marry in Scotland.\n\n\"When the bill was finally passed, I went back up the stairs to my office and I burst into tears,\" she told the BBC.\n\n\"After that, very late on, I went to a get-together in the pub with some of the campaigners and through a weird series of events someone there put me in touch

For her 80th birthday last year, she cycled for 24 hours.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Foreign Office minister Andrew Murrison has warned that Iran \"needs to stop\" attacks in the Gulf of Oman.\n\nHis visit to Tehran comes after the US accused Iran of attacking oil tankers earlier this month, which Iran denies.\n\nDr Murrison said the UK believes Iran \"almost certainly bears responsibility for the attacks\" and made clear UK concerns over activities in the region.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt said the situation was \"extremely serious\" and he spoke to Iran officials \"regularly\".\n\n\"This visit has provided an important opportunity for open, frank and constructive engagement with the Iranian government,\" said Dr Murrison, following talks with the Iranian government this weekend.\n\n\"In Tehran I was clear about the UK's long-held concerns over Iran's activities in the region.\n\nThe crisis began when oil tankers were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz\n\n\"And I was clear that the UK will continue to play its full part alongside international partners to find diplomatic solutions to reduce the current tensions.\"\n\nDr Murrison's visit took place as tensions continue to escalate between the US and Iran.\n\nOn Thursday morning, the US came close to launching airstrikes on Iran after it shot down a US drone.\n\nThe US and Iranian governments dispute whether it was in international airspace at the time.\n\nThe US military identified the drone downed on Thursday as a US Navy RQ-4A Global Hawk (file photo)\n\nThe shooting down of the drone followed accusations by the US that Iran had attacked two oil tankers just outside the Strait of Hormuz, in the Gulf of Oman. Iran rejects the allegation.\n\nDr Murrison's visit also aimed to raise international concerns about Iran's threat to cease complying with the Iranian nuclear deal after the US abandoned the agreement in 2018.\n\nBut according to the Reuters news agency, Iran's deputy foreign minister, Abbas Araqchi, insisted the country would stick to its decision to scale back some of its commitments under the 2015 deal.\n\n\"The European signatories of the deal lack the will to save the deal,\" he said after meeting Dr Murrison.\n\n\"Our decision to decrease our commitment to the deal is a national decision and it is irreversible as long as our demands are not met.\"\n\nDuring his visit, Dr Murrison also pushed for the release of British-Iranian Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe.\n\nNazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, pictured here with her daughter Gabriella, is serving a five-year sentence in Iran\n\nShe was jailed by an Iranian court for five years in 2016 over a disputed spying conviction, which she denies.\n\nShe and her husband have gone on hunger strike in protest at her ongoing detention.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "A £100m fund has been established to help UK firms capitalise on the boom in offshore wind.\n\nWith the UK so well suited to exploiting wind power, turbines have been erected in more than 30 locations from Brighton to the Moray Firth.\n\nBut trade unions say the boom has not generated enough jobs for UK workers.\n\nThe Offshore Wind Industry Council says its initiative will help hundreds of firms \"maximise opportunities\" in the offshore wind supply chain.\n\n\"The Offshore Wind Growth Partnership will provide practical help for UK companies so they can compete successfully for contracts in this thriving global market,\" said Benj Sykes, chairman of the OWIC and UK country manager for the Danish firm Orsted.\n\nThe OWIC, which is a joint government and industry body, will invest the privately-raised funds over 10 years to support companies in the supply chain.\n\nFirms that manufacture parts, lay cables and maintain wind farms will receive support ranging from \"expert advice on manufacturing and commercialisation\" to funding for innovation.

His muscular diplomacy has riled allies in Europe and beyond.\n\nHe has polarised his country but President Erdogan is a proven election winner. His supporters call him reis - \"chief\".\n\nAccusing his opponents of treating Turkey's electorate with contempt and failing to win them over he declared: \"As 85 million, we will protect our ballot, our will and our future.\"\n\nBorn in February 1954, Recep Tayyip Erdogan grew up the son of a coastguard, on Turkey's Black Sea coast. When he was 13, his father decided to move to Istanbul, hoping to give his five children a better upbringing.\n\nThe young Erdogan sold lemonade and sesame buns to earn extra cash. He attended an Islamic school before obtaining a degree in management from Istanbul's Marmara University - and playing professional football.\n\nErdogan supporters like his tough language and defence of traditional Muslim values\n\nIn the 1970s and 80s, he was active in Islamist circles, joining Necmettin Erbakan's pro-Islamic Welfare Party. As the party grew in popularity in the 1990s, Mr Erdogan was elected as its candidate for mayor of Istanbul in 1994 and ran the city for the next four years.\n\nBut his term came to an end when he was convicted of inciting racial hatred for publicly reading a nationalist poem that included the lines: \"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers.\"\n\nAfter serving four months in jail, he returned to politics. But his party had been banned for violating the strict secular principles of the modern Turkish state.\n\nIn August 2001, he founded an new, Islamist-rooted party with ally Abdullah Gul. In 2002, the AKP won a majority in parliamentary elections, and the following year Mr Erdogan was appointed prime minister. He remains chairman of the AKP or Justice and Development Party to this day.\n\nFrom 2003, he spent three terms as prime minister, presiding over a period of steady economic growth and winning praise internationally as a reformer. The middle class expanded and millions were taken out of poverty, as Mr Erdogan prioritised giant infrastructure projects to modernise Turkey.\n\nBut critics warned he was becoming increasingly autocratic.\n\nBy 2013, protesters took to the streets, partly because of his government's plans to transform a much-loved park in the centre of Istanbul, but also in a challenge to more authoritarian rule. The prime minister condemned the protesters as \"capulcu\" (riff-raff), and neighbourhoods would clang pots and pans at nine o'clock every night in a spirit of defiance. Allegations of corruption ensnared the sons of three cabinet allies.\n\nThe Gezi Park protests marked a turning point in his rule. To his detractors, he was acting more like a sultan from the Ottoman Empire than a democrat.\n\nMr Erdogan also fell out with a US-based Islamic scholar called Fethullah Gulen, whose social and cultural movement had helped him to victory in three consecutive elections and had been active in removing the military from politics. It was a feud that would have dramatic repercussions for Turkish society.\n\nAfter a decade of his rule, Mr Erdogan's party also moved to lift a ban on women wearing headscarves in public services that was introduced after a military coup in 1980. The ban was eventually lifted for women in the police, military and judiciary.\n\nCritics complained he had chipped away at the pillars of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk's secular republic. While religious himself, Mr Erdogan always denied wanting to impose Islamic values, insisting he supported the rights of Turks to express their religion more openly.\n\nMr Erdogan's wife Emine often appeared in public in a headscarf\n\nHowever, he has repeatedly supported criminalising adultery. And as a father of four, he has said \"no Muslim family\" should consider birth control or family planning. \"We will multiply our descendants,\" he said in May 2016.\n\nHe has extolled motherhood, condemned feminists and said men and women cannot be treated equally.\n\nMr Erdogan has long championed Islamist causes - and was known to give the four-finger salute of Egypt's repressed Muslim Brotherhood.\n\nIn July 2020, he oversaw the conversion of Istanbul's historic Hagia Sophia into a mosque, angering many Christians. Built 1,500 years ago as a cathedral, it was made into a mosque by the Ottoman Turks, but Ataturk had turned it into a museum - a symbol of the new secular state.\n\nIt was no accident that the president chose to address supporters at evening prayers within hours of the 2023 vote getting under way.\n\nBarred from running again for prime minister, in 2014 he stood for the largely ceremonial role of president in unprecedented direct elections. He had big plans for reforming the post, creating a new constitution that would benefit all Turks and place their country among the world's top 10 economies.\n\nBut early in his presidency, he faced two jolts to his power. His party lost its majority in parliament for several months in a 2015 vote, and then months later, in 2016, Turkey witnessed its first violent attempted coup for decades.\n\nRebel soldiers came close to capturing the president, holidaying at a coastal resort, but he was airlifted to safety. In the early hours of 16 July, he emerged triumphant at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport, to the cheers of supporters. Almost 300 civilians were killed as they blocked the advance of the coup plotters.\n\nThe president appeared on national TV and rallied supporters in Istanbul, declaring he was the \"chief commander\". But the strain was clear when he sobbed openly while giving a speech at the funeral of a close friend, shot with his son by mutinous soldiers.\n\nThe plot was blamed on the Gulen movement and led to some 150,000 public servants being sacked and more than 50,000 people being detained, including soldiers, journalists, lawyers, police officers, academics and Kurdish politicians.\n\nThis crackdown on critics caused alarm abroad, contributing to frosty relations with the EU: Turkey's bid to join the union has not progressed for years. Arguments over an influx of migrants into Greece exacerbated the ill-feeling.\n\nBut from his gleaming, 1,000-room Ak Saray palace overlooking Ankara, President Erdogan's position appeared more secure than ever.\n\nControversy has surrounded Mr Erdogan's costly and sprawling presidential palace in Ankara\n\nHe narrowly won a 2017 referendum granting him sweeping presidential powers, including the right to impose a state of emergency and appoint top public officials as well as intervene in the legal system.\n\nA year later, he secured outright victory in the first round of a presidential poll.\n\nHis core vote lies in small Anatolian towns and rural, conservative areas. In 2019, his party lost in the three biggest cities - Istanbul; the capital, Ankara; and Izmir.\n\nLosing the Istanbul mayorship narrowly to Ekrem Imamoglu of the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) was a bitter blow to Mr Erdogan, who was the city's mayor in the 1990s. He never accepted the result.\n\nMr Imamoglu was ahead of the president in the opinion polls before he was barred from running in the May elections. The president and his allies were accused of using the courts to disqualify the popular mayor from the vote.\n\nTurkey's third biggest party, the pro-Kurdish HDP, also feared being banned from the parliamentary vote because of alleged links to Kurdish militants, but instead it decided to stand under a different banner.\n\nLike previous Turkish leaders, President Erdogan has cracked down hard on the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).\n\nAlthough Turkey has taken in more than 3.5 million refugees fleeing the Syrian civil war, Ankara has also launched operations against Kurdish militias across the borders, alienating Kurds in Turkey.\n\nMr Erdogan has long held close ties with Russia's Vladimir Putin and has sought a pivotal role as a mediator in the conflict in Ukraine.\n\nDespite being the leader of a Nato state, he bought a Russian anti-missile defence system and chose Russia to build Turkey's first nuclear reactor.\n\nAhead of the 2023 election, he sought to bolster his credentials with nationalist and conservative voters by accusing the West of moving against him.\n\n\"My nation will foil this plot,\" he asserted, describing it as a kind of breaking point.\n\nHe rounded off his 2023 presidential campaign with a visit to the mausoleum of Adnan Menderes, Turkey's first democratically-elected prime minister who was executed in 1961 after a military coup.\n\nHis message: \"The era of coups and juntas is over.\"", "The WhatsApp hack, \"sabotaged\" oil tankers, the push in the US to proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood and \"plans\" to deploy American troops to the Gulf are all strands of the same story. At its heart is the struggle between Israel, Saudi Arabia and Iran.\n\nThe Israeli army is unique in that it forms the backbone of many industrial enterprises in Israel.\n\nThat's because the bonds formed during national service last a lifetime there.\n\nIt is the singular most important time in a young person's life - way more formative than the university years.\n\nIt's the ultimate \"old boy network\", though this one is made up of \"old boys and girls\".\n\nThe Israeli army takes in every youngster, assesses their greatest strength and parks them where they can do the most national good.\n\nThe computer nerds who would otherwise be locked in their mum's basement are forced out into the light and into doing their national service in cyber-warfare.\n\nWhen they leave the army, they take the skills and the connections they made into the industrial sector and they form companies like the NSO Group.\n\nThe NSO Group makes hacking tools to sell to governments to fight crime and terrorism.\n\nBut - and it is a big but - they'll only get an export licence from the Israeli government if it deems that the sale does not harm the national interest.\n\nIn the past that meant no sales to Iran and nothing to Arab Gulf states either.\n\nThat's because in the past the Gulf states stood with the Palestinians against Israel.\n\nIn the post-Arab Spring period, the Gulf states (apart from Qatar) have all but abandoned the Palestinian cause and moved to side with Israel against Iran.\n\nThis slow shift was accelerated by the election of Donald Trump and the appointment of so many anti-Iran hawks to his administration, like Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Adviser John Bolton.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. US special representative for Iran: 'We are not looking to get into a war'\n\nThere's much speculation that the Israeli government would, to build relations with their new friends in the Gulf, have allowed the NSO Group to sell their software to Gulf states.\n\nWhat suggests that? Well it's perhaps not a coincidence that among those reportedly targeted by the WhatsApp hacking software were lawyers investigating human rights abuses in Gulf states, a Saudi dissident and a Qatari citizen.\n\nIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made his reason for being (and his only political legacy) his effort to contain Iran, which he projects as Israel's only existential threat.\n\nThe Saudi rulers see two existential threats. One from without: Iran. And one from within: the Muslim Brotherhood. The Saudis are scared of Iran because of its military might.\n\nThey are scared of the Muslim Brotherhood because they offer political Islam as an alternative to the dynastic rule of the royal family.\n\nThe Trump administration decided to pursue sanctions against the Muslim Brotherhood following an April meeting with Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi\n\nThe Trump administration is made up of people who hate the Iranian regime and everything it stands for.\n\nSo, this new \"Axis of Egos\" is all doing each other favours to position themselves collectively to fully unite against Iran.\n\nSome involve arms sales, some involve the price of oil and gas, some involve political trades like the one that some in the White House are doing for the Saudis by trying to designate the Brotherhood as a terrorist group.\n\nIn a replay of what happened before the invasion of Iraq, it appears that any strand of intelligence that can be spun into a reason to ratchet up the pressure on Iran is being used.\n\nUAE Navy boats pictured next to Al Marzoqah, a Saudi Arabian tanker which was reportedly \"sabotaged\"\n\nThis atmosphere is all very familiar to those of us who were around to witness the build-up towards the war in Iraq.\n\nThe difference is that the US president in charge then - George W Bush - was driven partly by an ideological belief that it was his destiny to bring democracy to the Middle East. And that involved taking out Saddam Hussein.\n\nThe present occupant in the White House has far fewer ideological bones in his body, perhaps none.\n\nThe signature of the Trump presidency is transactional politics built around business need. President Trump's foreign policy doctrine is \"America First\".\n\nHe's unlikely to sign up to another war in the Middle East, certainly not this side of the 2020 election, unless he is seriously provoked.\n\nThat would require being able to pin some very bad action on Tehran. The best way to do that is to gather intelligence.\n\nAnd the best way to gather intelligence is for all your allies to be spying on as many people in the region as you can.\n\nOne of the best ways to do that is to hack into the Trojan horse we all voluntarily carry with us, our smartphones.\n\nPaul Danahar is the BBC's Americas Bureaux Editor in Washington and was the BBC's Middle East bureau chief from 2010-2013", "Supporters at a rally for Mohamed Ould Ghazouani, widely seen as the frontrunner\n\nMauritania has been voting in what may result in the first democratic transition of power since the West African country achieved independence in 1960.\n\nPresident Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz seized power in a coup in 2008, but has agreed to step down and abide by a two-term limit of office.\n\nVotes are now being counted and the result should be known next week.\n\nSix candidates are competing for the presidency.\n\nThe frontrunner is Mohamed Ahmed Ould Ghazouani, the country's defence minister and a close ally of the current president, BBC West Africa correspondent Louise Dewast reports.\n\nOpposition candidates also took part in a move seen as a positive step forward, after boycotting several previous polls.\n\nThe five other candidates include former Prime Minister Sidi Mohamed Ould Boubacar, and a well-known activist and anti-slavery campaigner, Biram Dah Abeid.\n\nThe country's electoral commission promised a free and fair election, despite claims by the opposition that it was biased in favour of the governing party.\n\nMauritania's press authority said on Friday that it had received no complaints about the coverage of the campaign.\n\nThe most critical issue on the campaign trail has been the standard of living, which every candidate has promised to improve.\n\nSlavery also remains an issue. Mauritania became the final country in the world to formally abolish slavery in 1981, but it continues to this day. Criminal laws allowing slaveholders to be prosecuted were passed in 2007, but have yet to be fully and effectively enforced.\n\nAfter Mauritania achieved independence from France in 1960, the country's first president held power for 18 years before being ousted in a military coup. More coups followed in 1984, 2005 and 2008.\n\nIf Saturday's election ends with no clear winner, a run-off election is due to be held on 6 July.", "Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt will face Boris Johnson in the run-off to become Conservative leader and prime minister.\n\nMr Hunt oversaw the London Olympics as culture secretary and was the UK's longest-serving health secretary.\n\nBefore entering Parliament, Jeremy Hunt had a career as an English teacher in Japan and as an entrepreneur.\n\nHe became the MP for South West Surrey at the 2005 general election, taking over from Virginia Bottomley.\n\nFrom 2005 to 2007, Mr Hunt was shadow minister for disabled people. It was a reward for supporting David Cameron, who attended Oxford University at the same time as him, in the Conservative leadership election.\n\nA reshuffle in 2007 saw Mr Hunt promoted to shadow culture secretary.\n\nIn 2009, he was found to have breached expenses rules and ordered to repay more than £9,500. He had allowed his agent to stay rent-free in his constituency property, which was designated as his second home.\n\nMr Hunt had claimed £19,117 in public money towards the property, but it was decided he hadn't benefited financially from the situation.\n\nWhen the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government was formed in 2010, Jeremy Hunt joined the cabinet as secretary of state for culture, Olympics, media and sport.\n\nIt was a key role in the run-up to London's 2012 Olympics and he worked closely with then London Mayor, Boris Johnson.\n\nMr Hunt campaigned on the importance of tourism during the Olympics. And he took the decision to double the budget for the Olympic and Paralympic ceremonies from £40m to £81m.\n\nThe Olympic opening ceremony was widely seen as a big success.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMr Hunt also put emphasis on creating a lasting legacy for the games.\n\nThe government gave Sport England £1bn to invest in grassroots sports, and Mr Hunt said there was an \"extraordinary chance\" to \"reinvigorate this country's sporting habits for both the young and the old\".\n\nBut in the years that followed there was only a small increase in the number of young people taking up sport.\n\nIn 2005-06 the proportion of over-16s in England who played sport for at least 30 minutes each week was 34.6%. By 2015-16, it was 36.1%.\n\nEarlier in 2012, his career was hanging in the balance. During the Leveson Inquiry into the culture and practices of the press, his contact with the Murdoch family came under scrutiny.\n\nMr Hunt was responsible for overseeing the proposed takeover of BSkyB by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.\n\nHe was criticised for failing to supervise his adviser's contact with News Corp, and for messages he exchanged with James Murdoch on the bid. His special adviser, Adam Smith, was forced to quit.\n\nThe inquiry released texts sent from Mr Hunt to News Corp lobbyist Fred Michel when it was bidding for BSkyB. The culture secretary addressed him as \"Daddy\" and \"mon ami\" - their wives had given birth in the same hospital in May 2010. Separately, in December 2010, he told Mr Michel there was \"nothing u won't like\" in a forthcoming speech.\n\nMr Hunt insisted he acted with \"total integrity\" during the bid process.\n\nAs culture secretary, Mr Hunt also led a government plan to launch local television stations across the UK. More than 30 had been set up before Ofcom later scrapped the roll-out of any further channels, because of limited interest from viewers and financial difficulties.\n\nCity TV, the holder of the local TV licence for Birmingham, was forced to appoint administrators to find a buyer before it was even launched, for example.\n\nMr Hunt also announced a deal with the BBC to freeze the licence fee for six years at £145.50 from 2010. He said high executive salaries and an advantage over commercial broadcasters were a cause for concern.\n\nThat was equivalent to a 16% budget cut in real terms and led to the BBC having to make savings, including 2,000 job losses.\n\nUnder the agreement, the BBC also took on responsibility for funding the World Service, the Welsh language channel S4C, and the roll-out of broadband to rural areas.\n\nJeremy Hunt was appointed health secretary in September 2012, with Maria Miller taking on his previous role.\n\nHe would eventually become the longest-serving health secretary in NHS history, surpassing its founder, Labour's Aneurin Bevan.\n\nBut Mr Hunt held office during the slowest period of investment in the NHS since its foundation - which created big problems.\n\nSince the NHS was established, health spending has risen by about 4% above inflation each year on average. Post-2010, as the coalition budget tried to reduce the deficit, this fell to about 1% a year.\n\nThis came as demands on the health service were growing.\n\nBetween 2005 and 2015, A&E visits went up by almost 30%. And during Mr Hunt's tenure as health secretary, the number of people in the population aged 85 and over went up by about a third.\n\nThe independent Office for Budget Responsibility said funding for the NHS needed to rise by 4.3% a year just to keep up with rising demand, without actively improving standards.\n\nFinancial difficulties led to more hospitals going into the red, as well as targets being missed in three main areas: cancer care, hospital appointments and A&E waiting times.\n\nNHS England has not met any of these targets since 2015.\n\nJust 85.3% of patients were seen at A&E departments within the waiting time target of four hours in January 2018. At least 95% of patients attending A&E are supposed to be either admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours.\n\nUnions, like the GMB, demanded his resignation.\n\nAs well as a series of austerity measures - which included extending a cap on pay increases for NHS staff - he was also criticised for his handling of the junior doctor contract row.\n\nMr Hunt said that changes to contracts were essential to deliver a seven-day NHS in England by 2020 - a pledge in the Conservatives' 2010 election manifesto.\n\nTo achieve this, the proposed contracts would mean evenings and Saturdays would be considered \"normal\" rather than \"unsocial\" hours and would no longer attract overtime pay.\n\nThe NHS's pay review body had said the cost of paying a premium on these \"unsocial hours\" put delivering a seven-day NHS out of reach.\n\nJunior doctors responded by tweeting pictures of themselves working weekend and late shifts, with the hashtag #ImInWorkJeremy.\n\nContract negotiations with junior doctors stopped and started and the British Medical Association eventually decided on industrial action.\n\nJunior doctors took part in a series of walkouts in 2016. On two strike days, between 08:00 and 17:00 even emergency care wasn't covered - the first time that had ever happened in the history of the NHS.\n\nPublic support for the strike was high, and even after doctors withdrew emergency care, the majority of the public (57%) still supported the strike and believed the government was more at fault (54%).\n\nA new contract for junior doctors was later imposed, after BMA members rejected a deal agreed by the government and union negotiators.\n\nDespite heavy criticism, Mr Hunt did go on to secure a funding increase for the NHS, totalling £20.5bn in real terms by 2023.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of an Ofsted-style system for rating hospitals and GP surgeries in England, ranking them on things like cancer, mental health and diabetes services.\n\nMr Hunt repeatedly referred in speeches to cases where individuals had received bad treatment in the NHS. He said he was horrified at the report into the Stafford Hospital scandal.\n\nHe went on to overhaul the inspection regime, introduce a new duty of candour on staff and fresh rules about whistle-blowers.\n\nSocial care was added to his brief in 2018. He spoke of the need to integrate social care, funded by local councils, with services delivered by the NHS.\n\nHe had already overseen a transfer of money from the NHS to council budgets from 2014. This shared budget was designed to tackle the problem of elderly people having to stay in hospital beds unnecessarily, because of a lack of care for them at home.\n\nAfter this, the number of these cases fell.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of the first national waiting-time target for mental health treatment. From April 2016, the NHS said at least 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis should begin treatment within two weeks of referral.\n\nMr Hunt became foreign secretary in July 2018, after his predecessor and now leadership rival, Boris Johnson, quit over Theresa May's Brexit strategy.\n\nIn March, he became the first Western foreign minister to visit Yemen since conflict there began.\n\nHe has faced criticism for allowing the UK to sell arms to the Saudi regime, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen. But he has previously defended UK-Saudi ties, saying Saudi Arabia is a \"very, very important military ally to the UK\".\n\nHis time as foreign secretary has not been gaffe-free.

He said this was because of the \"arrogance of the European Commission\" in Brexit negotiations.\n\nHe also likened the Brexit negotiating tactics of the EU to the Soviet Union. The comparison provoked criticism from EU ambassadors and politicians and there were calls for an apology.\n\nMr Hunt says he want to negotiate a \"credible\" Brexit plan by securing changes to the controversial Irish backstop.\n\nHowever, he does not rule out leaving the EU without a deal if such an outcome becomes \"the only way to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBut unlike his leadership rival, Boris Johnson, he says the current departure date of 31 October is not a hard deadline.", "The neighbour who called police about a loud row at the home of Boris Johnson - and later reported it to a newspaper - has defended his actions.\n\nThe Guardian said Mr Johnson's partner Carrie Symonds could be heard telling the Tory MP to \"get out of my flat\".\n\nTom Penn told the paper he was worried about his neighbours' safety, adding: \"I hope that anybody would have done the same thing.\"\n\nOn Saturday, the Tory leadership hopeful avoided questions on the row.\n\nMr Penn said he began recording from inside his flat in Camberwell, south London, after he heard \"slamming and banging\".\n\nHe said he contacted the Guardian with the recording \"once clear that no-one was harmed\" because he \"felt it was of important public interest\".\n\n\"I believe it is reasonable for someone who is likely to become our next prime minister to be held accountable for all of their words, actions and behaviours,\" he said.\n\nIn the recording - heard by the Guardian but not by the BBC - Mr Johnson was reportedly refusing to leave the flat and told the woman to \"get off\" his laptop, before there was a loud crashing noise.\n\nMs Symonds is reported to be heard saying that the MP had ruined a sofa with red wine, adding: \"You just don't care for anything because you're spoilt. You have no care for money or anything.\"\n\nThe newspaper said Ms Symonds was also heard telling him to \"get off me\" and \"get out of my flat\".\n\nMr Penn said he was collecting a takeaway meal from outside his front door when he first heard shouting.\n\nHe said the shouting was \"loud enough and angry enough that I felt frightened and concerned for the welfare of those involved\".\n\nHe said he and his wife decided to check on their neighbours, but agreed to call the police when there was no response after knocking on Ms Symonds door.\n\nPolice said they spoke to all occupants of the address, who were safe and well.\n\nAnother neighbour, who would only give her name as Fatima, told the BBC: \"I heard a female voice, shouting and screaming, and then I heard things smashing, it sounded like plates or glasses.\n\n\"I couldn't hear what she was saying but she sounded really angry.\"\n\nCarrie Symonds has been in a relationship with Mr Johnson since 2018\n\nMr Penn also criticised \"unpleasant things\" being said about him and his partner in the media, saying he was upset by some \"quite frankly bizarre and fictitious allegations\".\n\nSome of Mr Johnson's supporters have expressed scepticism about Mr Penn's political motivation for calling the police and contacting the Guardian.\n\nMr Penn told the paper: \"I, along with a lot of my neighbours all across London, voted to remain within the EU. That is the extent of my involvement in politics.\"\n\nOn Saturday, Mr Johnson and Jeremy Hunt made their pitches to party members on why they should succeed Theresa May as prime minister.\n\nMr Johnson repeatedly avoided questions about the incident, saying people did not \"want to hear\" about it.\n\nWhen the event moderator Iain Dale accused him of ducking the question, Mr Johnson did not respond directly, instead saying: \"People are entitled to ask me what I want to do for the country.\"\n\nMr Dale was heckled by some in the audience when he pressed the MP on whether he thought a person's private life had any bearing on their ability to be prime minister, leading Mr Johnson to insist: \"Don't boo the great man\".\n\nThe LBC presenter said on Sunday while the audience had clearly become frustrated with his questioning of Mr Johnson on the matter, it was \"my job\" to persist.\n\nHe said: \"There will have been lots of other people in the audience who didn't boo, and who actually did want to hear the answer to that question.\"\n\nMeanwhile, former Tory foreign secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind, who is backing Jeremy Hunt for the party leadership, told the BBC he believed Mr Johnson had made an \"error of judgement\" in refusing to answer Mr Dale's questions.\n\n\"Just saying 'no comment' implies, 'it's none of your business', and it is the business of the public to know why the police have been called to his property,\" he said.\n\nBut Conservative MP Rishi Sunak, who is backing Mr Johnson in the contest, said he believed it was \"clearly a private incident\" after police said everyone was safe and well and no further action was required.\n\nIt was the first of 16 events, or hustings, to choose the next Conservative party leader - and prime minister - following Theresa May's resignation after she failed to get her Brexit deal through Parliament.\n\nShe remains in office until her successor is found.", "Boris Johnson has refused to answer questions about his private life, after police were called to a reported row with his girlfriend.\n\nPolice were called to the Conservative leadership candidate's London home in the early hours of Friday after neighbours reportedly heard a loud argument.\n\nOn Saturday afternoon in Birmingham, at the first of 16 Conservative Party hustings, LBC's Iain Dale pressed Mr Johnson on the incident.", "Conservative leadership candidate Jeremy Hunt has said he would never allow the break-up of the United Kingdom if he becomes prime minister.\n\nSpeaking at an event in Aberdeenshire, Boris Johnson's rival said he would support the union with \"every drop of blood in my veins\".\n\nHis comments come after Scotland's first minister said Mr Johnson would be \"disastrous\" for the Scottish Tories.\n\nBoris Johnson is the front-runner to replace Theresa May in Number 10.\n\nSpeaking in Peterhead, Jeremy Hunt told local Conservatives that he would fight to preserve the United Kingdom.\n\nIt follows a poll of 1,024 Scottish voters for the Sunday Times suggested that more than half would vote to leave the UK if Boris Johnson were to become prime minister.\n\nNicola Sturgeon has already earmarked the second half of 2020 for when a second Scottish independence referendum could be held.\n\nMr Hunt told Conservatives: \"I'm in Scotland today because I'm the prime minister that Nicola Sturgeon does not want because I passionately support the union with every drop of blood in my veins.\n\n\"I will never allow the union to be broken up as prime minister.\"\n\nHe added: \"I would never pay any price if it meant that Scotland would become independent.\"\n\nBoris Johnson has refused to answer questions about a row at his home\n\nHe was referring to another recent poll that suggested a majority of Conservative Party members wanted Brexit even if it meant Scotland gaining independence.\n\nMr Hunt replied: \"I don't actually believe that polling.\n\n\"Conservative Party members I know are absolutely passionate about our precious union.\"\n\nThe foreign secretary also said that the public did not want a debate on his Tory leadership rival's private life.\n\nBoris Johnson has dodged questions on reports of a row with his partner that led to police being called.\n\n\"It's up to him what he says, but I don't think the public, and I don't think Conservative Party members, want a big debate about people's personal lives,\" Mr Hunt said.\n\nHe added that they wanted a \"proper debate\" about how \"we're going to get out of the \"Brexit constitutional crisis\".\n\nIn an interview with Sophy Ridge on Sky News, Ms Sturgeon was asked her views on the impact choosing Boris Johnson as prime minister would have on the Conservatives in Scotland.\n\nShe said: \"I think he would be devastating, disastrous for the Conservatives UK-wide but particularly in Scotland.\n\n\"He is seen in Scotland I think as one of the principal politicians who are responsible for the mess that we are in over Brexit, the guy who misled people in the EU referendum campaign and the guy who now says he is prepared to take the UK out of the EU without a deal, for most people in Scotland that is a horrifying prospect.\"\n\nMs Sturgeon also said that Mr Johnson had made \"overtly racist\" comments when he compared Burka-wearing Muslim women to \"letterboxes\".\n\nSpeaking on the BBC's Sunday Politics Scotland, Conservative MP for Aberdeen South, Ross Thomson responded to Ms Sturgeon's comments by saying: \"As usual, Nicola Sturgeon is using any opportunity to whip up support for her separatist agenda.\n\n\"The truth is that Boris Johnson is absolutely committed to not just protecting, but to strengthening our union if he becomes PM.\"\n\nIt comes as the International Trade Secretary Liam Fox said Mr John should \"just give an explanation\" about the row recorded at his home by a neighbour earlier this week.\n\nThe MP said reports of the row between Mr Johnson and his partner should not be a \"distraction\" from policy discussion in the leadership race.", "Arabs are increasingly saying they are no longer religious, according to the largest and most in-depth survey undertaken of the Middle East and North Africa.\n\nThe finding is one of a number on how Arabs feel about a wide range of issues, from women's rights and migration to security and sexuality.\n\nMore than 25,000 people were interviewed for the survey - for BBC News Arabic by the Arab Barometer research network - across 10 countries and the Palestinian territories between late 2018 and spring 2019.\n\nHere are some of the results.\n\nSince 2013, the number of people across the region identifying as \"not religious\" has risen from 8% to 13%. The rise is greatest in the under 30s, among whom 18% identify as not religious, according to the research. Only Yemen saw a fall in the category.\n\nMost people across the region supported the right of a woman to become prime minister or president. The exception was Algeria where less than 50% of those questioned agreed that a woman head of state was acceptable.\n\nBut when it comes to domestic life, most - including a majority of women - believe that husbands should always have the final say on family decisions. Only in Morocco did fewer than half the population think a husband should always be the ultimate decision-maker.\n\nAcceptance of homosexuality varies but is low or extremely low across the region. In Lebanon, despite having a reputation for being more socially liberal than its neighbours, the figure is 6%.\n\nAn honour killing is one in which relatives kill a family member, typically a woman, for allegedly bringing dishonour onto the family.\n\nEvery place surveyed put Donald Trump's Middle East policies last when comparing these leaders. By contrast, in seven of the 11 places surveyed, half or more approved of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's approach.\n\nTotals for each country do not always sum to 100 because 'Don't know' and 'Refused to respond' have not been included.\n\nSecurity remains a concern for many in the Middle East and North Africa. When asked which countries posed the biggest threat to their stability and national security, after Israel, the US was identified as the second biggest threat in the region as a whole, and Iran was third.\n\nIn every place questioned, research suggested at least one in five people were considering emigrating. In Sudan, this accounted for half the population.\n\nEconomic reasons were overwhelmingly cited as the driving factor.\n\nThey're not all aiming for Europe Areas where people want to go to.

The project interviewed 25,407 people face-to-face in 10 countries and the Palestinian territories. The Arab Barometer is a research network based at Princeton University. They have been conducting surveys like this since 2006. The 45-minute, largely tablet-based interviews were conducted by researchers with participants in private spaces.\n\nIt is of Arab world opinion, so does not include Iran or Israel, though it does include the Palestinian territories. Most countries in the region are included but several Gulf governments refused full and fair access to the survey. The Kuwait results came in too late to include in the BBC Arabic coverage. Syria could not be included due to the difficulty of access.\n\nFor legal and cultural reasons some countries asked to drop some questions. These exclusions are taken into account when expressing the results, with limitations clearly outlined.\n\nYou can find out more details about the methodology on the Arab Barometer website.", "The crisis began when oil tankers were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz\n\nForeign Office minister Andrew Murrison will call for \"urgent de-escalation\" of regional tensions during talks with the Iranian government in Tehran on Sunday.\n\nThe US has accused Iran of attacking oil tankers, and President Trump warned Iran faces \"obliteration\" in a war.\n\nOn Thursday he called off airstrikes with 10 minutes to spare, after Iran shot down a US drone.\n\nThe Foreign Office said that Dr Murrison will criticise Iran's \"regional conduct\" on the short visit.\n\nIt added the UK still supported the Iranian nuclear deal - that Mr Trump ditched in 2018.\n\nA spokeswoman said: \"The UK has an ongoing diplomatic dialogue with Iran.\n\n\"At this time of increased regional tensions and at a crucial period for the future of the nuclear deal, this visit is an opportunity for further open, frank and constructive engagement with the government of Iran.\n\n\"Dr Murrison will call for urgent de-escalation in the region and raise UK and international concerns about Iran's regional conduct and its threat to cease complying with the nuclear deal, to which the UK remains fully committed.\"\n\nIt comes as reports said the US launched a cyber-attack on Iranian weapons systems on Thursday.\n\nAccording to the Washington Post, the attack disabled computer systems controlling rocket and missile launchers.\n\nThe New York Times said it was in retaliation for Iran's shooting down of the US drone and attacks on oil tankers that the US has blamed Iran for.\n\nFormer Labour Foreign Secretary David Miliband said the UK should be \"very worried\" about the \"real prospect of a war\".\n\nSpeaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, he said such a conflict would become a \"contagion across the region\".\n\n\"There are people in the senior reaches in the US administration who want a war with Iran, and there are people on the Iranian side who are itching to get at the Americans too.\n\n\"A war between US and Iran would not be restricted to the US and Iran,\" he concluded.\n\nTensions have been escalating between the Iran and the US after Mr Trump unilaterally pulled out of a 2015 nuclear deal aimed at curbing Iran's nuclear activities.\n\nIran shot down the unmanned aircraft on Thursday morning.

so this was an occasion laced with meaning for the world-class Egyptian.\n\nAnd his moment came almost instantly when he took responsibility from the penalty spot and powered the ball past Lloris.\n\nHow fitting it was that the player who has contributed so much to Liverpool's renaissance should make such a significant contribution.\n\nAnother major difference from last year's disappointment was the giant presence of Alisson in goal as opposed to the hapless Lloris Karius, who gifted goals to Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale in Kiev.\n\nHere, the £67m Brazilian was a rock with his safe handling and vital interventions when Liverpool came under stress in the second half.\n\nAlisson, along with Virgil van Dijk, has given Liverpool the extra dimension that pushed them so close to a first league title in 29 years and has now made them European champions once more.\n• None Read all the reaction to the game\n• None How you rated the players\n\nLiverpool manager Klopp knew one sub-plot to this Champions League final, played out in the searing heat of Madrid, would be his grim record of losing six successive finals.\n\nHe had lost three with Liverpool, including in this competition last season, and while no-one can seriously doubt the German's outstanding work it was his legendary Anfield predecessor Bill Shankly who coined the phrase: \"First is first and second is nowhere.\"\n\nKlopp can now cast off that mantle and instead be known as the manager who restored Liverpool to the pinnacle of European competition.\n\nIronically, after a season of sustained brilliance and a single defeat brought the scant reward of second place to Manchester City in the Premier League, this landmark triumph was achieved with one of Liverpool's least sparkling performances for some time.\n\nThat will not matter, however, because Liverpool earned this glory with wins such as those over Bayern Munich in the last 16 and the astonishing 4-0 turnaround against Barcelona at Anfield in the semi-final.\n\nKlopp was already a much-loved figure - now his name will be written into club folklore.\n\nIn the end the temptation was simply too much to resist - and it was easy to understand why.\n\nPochettino knew his world-class striker Kane was a player who had hurt Liverpool in the past and could hurt them again -

Konta won 10-8 in the final set, as flying ants descended on the All England Club.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "Birmingham City Council said the risk by protesters was \"too serious\"\n\nProtesters against LGBT teaching at a primary school have been banned from gathering outside the gates by a High Court injunction.\n\nBirmingham City Council pursued the legal action after months of demonstrations outside Anderton Park Primary School.\n\nThe school had to close early before half-term due to escalating action.\n\nThe council said it sought the urgent injunction after the risk to children became \"too serious to tolerate\".\n\nIt said the behaviour of demonstrators was \"increasingly unacceptable\".\n\nProtests have been held outside Anderton Park School for several weeks\n\nThe authority said it made the application in order to protect staff and pupils when they return from their half-term break on Monday.\n\nProtesters were not made aware of the High Court application but told the BBC they still intended to gather next week on a street further away from the school.\n\nThe injunction will be in place until 10 June, when those against the diversity teachings will be given the chance to make their case in front of a judge.\n\nThe exclusion zone covers the streets around the school, which sits on Dennis Road, from Taunton Road, Yardley Lane and Birchwood Road.\n\nHe said: \"Children right across Birmingham should be free to attend school safely and without disruption.\"\n\nHe urged parents and campaigners to \"take this opportunity to engage in constructive dialogue with the school\".\n\nParents began protesting over concerns their children were \"too young\" to learn about LGBT relationships. They also said the lessons contradicted Islam.\n\nOn Thursday, the former chief prosecutor for the north-west of England, Nazir Afzal, who was brought in to mediate the matter, said parents were being \"manipulated\".\n\nShakeel Afsar has coordinated the protests outside Anderton Park\n\nJess Phillips, Labour MP for Yardley, said the council had \"done the right thing for the children\", adding \"it's just a shame it has come to this thanks to the bigotry of a few\".\n\nLead protester Shakeel Afsar, who does not have children at the school, tweeted that he will be challenging the injunction, adding: \"I will stress to parents - don't back down. If you feel you are right, invoke your democratic rights.\"\n\nAjmal Masroor - an imam and founder of Communities in Action - told Newsnight: \"It's people's democratic right to protest and the city council can bring as many injunctions as they like but they cannot silence people's discontent.\n\n\"The only way we can create harmony and peace is by dialogue, by communicating and having love and respect.

He shared the Premier League's Golden Boot with Salah and Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, but take away penalties and Mane would have been three clear of any other player.\n\nThe Senegal forward scored Liverpool's only goal in the 2018 final and if he nets against Spurs he will be the first player to score in the final in consecutive years since Franz Roth for Bayern Munich in 1975 and 1976.\n\nHe comes alive in the knockout stages, with 71% of his Champions League goals coming after the groups - the highest proportion of any player with 10 or more - and his expected goals total of 7.8 (excluding penalties) in this season's tournament is exactly 2.0 higher than any other player in 2018-19 and only 1.1 lower than Manchester United managed in their entire European campaign.\n\nAs a result, all the signs point to Mane being the most important figure in the match... except one.\n\nThe man who has scored 80% of his Premier League goals within two miles of the English coast has to perform in a Champions League final being staged in one of the only major European cities not built by a river or a seafront. Will he sink or swim?\n\nSomeone is bound to pay the penalty\n\nTalking of penalties, this will be the first Champions League final to get the luxury VAR (video assistant referee) experience, with the added bonus that it features the teams whose Premier League meetings have produced more spot-kicks (22) than any other fixture.\n\nWill the remote referees serve up some 12-yard drama? If they do, then Spurs and Liverpool - in Harry Kane and James Milner - have some of the coolest men in the business, with only six failures between them from 42 attempts in the Premier League and Champions League combined.\n\nIt's why the rest of the world envies England's penalty technique...\n\nThe winner will have defied convention\n\nWhoever wins the 2019 Champions League, it will go down as an outlier of an edition.\n\nIt's the first final between two non-group winners since 2010, the first not to feature a team who has actually won their domestic league title in the 21st Century (Liverpool and Spurs' combined league drought of 87 years seems, and is, a lot), and we know that the winning side will end the season with four defeats, a new record for the Champions League in its current format.\n\nManchester United, in 2007-08, remain the most recent team to become European champions without losing a game, while AC Milan's poor record - at first glance at least - of three defeats in 2006-07 was skewed by losses in their final two group games when the section was won.\n\nLiverpool and Tottenham's progress through the group stage was anything but serene, with the Reds losing all three of their away games in the autumn and Tottenham virtually eliminated three matches into their 'group of death', which also included Barcelona, Inter Milan and PSV. They scraped through with a negative goal difference and six months later are one game from immortality.\n\nWhoever wins, they will have underlined how unpredictable this season, and the Champions League in general, has become.\n\nTest your knowledge - and then impress your friends\n\nWe all know that the hours before the Champions League final can drag, so why not use the below to make yourself feel momentarily superior as kick-off approaches.\n\nTake our mini-quiz and show off to your mates… (answers are below, but no peeking!)\n\n1) Which full-back on show in the 2019 final has created the most goalscoring chances by a defender in the Champions League this season?\n\n2) The past five first-time finalists in the Champions League have not won the trophy. Who were the last Champions League/European Cup final debutants to win?\n\n3) If Tottenham are victorious, London will have exactly two European Cup wins to its name. Name the other four cities to have two European Cups.\n\n4) Name the only player to feature as both a starter and a substitute in Liverpool's pair of Champions League finals in 2005 and 2007?\n\n5) And talking of players whose last name begins with K - and with Harry Kane seemingly back to full fitness - can you name the last four players with a K surname to score in a Champions League/European Cup final?\n\n1) Kieran Trippier.

It is a remarkable achievement given the hurdles she has had to overcome.\"\n\nTaylor with her promoter Eddie Hearn and Belgian opponent Delfine Persoon\n\nFlynn says you have to frame Taylor's achievements within \"the perspective of women's boxing in Ireland\".\n\n\"There has been a struggle over the years for it to get a general acceptance in what has traditionally been a male-dominated sport,\" he adds.\n\n\"Women's boxing has now been accepted worldwide, and Katie Taylor has brought that to the fore and been a torchbearer and pioneer in terms of women's boxing.\"\n\nWhen Taylor first dreamed of becoming an Olympic champion as a child training in her back garden in Bray, County Wicklow, women's boxing was not officially recognised in Ireland.\n\nShe has admitted that when she was a young girl she pretended to be a boy in order to enter contests.\n\nAs a 15-year-old amateur in 2001, Taylor fought in the first women's fight sanctioned by the Irish boxing authorities.\n\nKatie Taylor (far right) playing for the Republic of Ireland women's football team against the US in San Diego in 2006\n\nHer athleticism was also honed playing in the Republic of Ireland international women's football team.\n\nTaylor's ascent as a boxer, under the tuition of her trainer father Pete, was remarkable.\n\nShe claimed five World Championship golds at amateur level from 2006 to 2014, as well as a gold medal at the 2012 Olympics in London.\n\nKatie Taylor's father Pete was her trainer during her amateur career\n\nFormer World professional flyweight boxing champion Dave 'Boy' McAuley said he had not been impressed by women's boxing until he witnessed Taylor in action during that successful spell.\n\n\"When I saw her on the undercard for Irish boxer Bernard Dunne's world title fight in March 2009, her performance blew me away,\" he said.\n\n\"She was absolutely fantastic. When I sat watching her, she changed my whole perception of women's boxing.\n\n\"I think she is unbelievable, she is a great puncher and exciting to watch.\n\n\"I have met her outside the ring and she is a lovely girl, but inside it she is a different specimen.\"\n\nTaylor and her father Pete split professionally in 2016, months before the Rio Olympics in which she was surprisingly beaten in the quarter-finals.\n\n\"The first time I had to go training without him, the tears were rolling down my face,\" she said in the documentary Katie, which was released last year.\n\n\"I knew when I made the decision to step away from my dad it was going to cost me a lot.\"\n\nNearly two years after the Rio Olympics, in June 2018, an Irish gym founded by her father Pete was targeted in a shooting.\n\nBobby Messett, 50, died in the shooting at Bray Boxing Club. Pete was one of two other men injured.\n\nKatie Taylor condemned the \"horrific attack\", but said she had had little contact with her father in the \"last three years and no contact or association whatsoever with Bray Boxing Club since 2015\".\n\nHer Christian faith has been a constant in Taylor's career; she was a regular at St Mark's Pentecostal Church in Dublin's Pearse Street from her teenage years.\n\nShe has been known to pray with her mother, Bridget, before fights.\n\nTaylor's devotion to boxing has run parallel to her faith - Psalm 18 is embossed on the arm of her tracksuit.\n\nTraining in New York, ahead of Saturday's world title fight\n\nTaylor's decision to turn professional with promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing in October 2016 has reaped considerable rewards.\n\nThe Irish Times reported in April that Taylor's company had accrued cash reserves of more than €1.5m (£1.32m) after another successful year.\n\nThe boxer is now based in the Conneticut town of Vernon, in the US, where she is under the guidance of trainer Ross Enamait.\n\nHe has previously said \"there's a lot of people don't recognise the talent that exists\" in Taylor, but that is unlikely to remain the case for long.\n\nSaturday's contest, on the undercard of Anthony Joshua's fight against Andy Ruiz Jr, is widely anticipated.\n\nMcAuley remains a believer as Taylor heads for the summit. \"She will win the fourth title, she is the best there is about,\" he said.\n\n\"I think she will go down in history, I can't see anyone stopping her - there is no-one better than her.\"", "Police have informed Mr Hutchison's family about the discovery\n\nPolice searching for a missing man in Midlothian discovered a body in a wheelie bin, BBC Scotland understands.\n\nA major search involving a police helicopter and a dog unit was launched after Tony Hutchison, 49, was reported missing in Gorebridge on 23 May.\n\nHuman remains were discovered in a bin in the village's Jubilee Crescent area at about 19:10 on Thursday.\n\nFormal identification is yet to take place but Mr Hutchison's family have been informed of the discovery.\n\nA large specialist forensic team spent Saturday working in the street and in a nearby park.\n\nOfficers are appealing for information from the public as part of their ongoing investigations.\n\nDet Insp Grant Durie, of the major investigation team (MIT), said: \"At this time, a cause of death has not yet been established and we are currently treating the death as unexplained.\n\n\"We are working to formally identify the man, and ascertain the full circumstances of this, in order to provide answers to his family and the wider community.\n\n\"I'd encourage the local community to help us, wherever possible, and get in touch if they may have seen Tony, or captured him on any private CCTV, since the last confirmed sighting.\n\n\"Likewise, anyone who lives in the Arniston area and who may have information relevant to our inquiries is urged to get in touch as soon as possible.\"\n\nThe body was found on Thursday evening\n\nCh Insp Arron Clinkscales, area commander for Midlothian, added: \"A number of local resources have been involved in the search for Tony, supported by national teams including the dog unit and the police helicopter, which has sadly led to a body being discovered.\n\n\"We fully appreciate the concern this will cause to the community, and want to reassure the public that there will be an increase in patrols to the Gorebridge area.\n\n\"Local officers will be supporting our colleagues in the MIT throughout their inquiries, and anyone with information is welcome to speak to any officer.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "British retail tycoon Sir Philip Green has been charged in the US with four counts of misdemeanour assault.\n\nThe charges come after a fitness instructor in Arizona alleged that he repeatedly touched her inappropriately.\n\nThe incidents, which Sir Philip strenuously denies, allegedly occurred at the Canyon Ranch resort in Tucson in 2016 and 2018.\n\nPima County Attorney's Office said each count carries a potential sentence of up to 30 days in jail.\n\nSir Philip could also face a fine of up to $500 (£400) and up to a year of probation on each count, the attorney's office said.\n\nThe complainant said in a police interview that Sir Philip had slapped her bottom.\n\nA statement issued by Arcadia said: \"Sir Philip strenuously denies these allegations and is disappointed that the charges have been filed in his absence and they are minor categories of misdemeanour in the United States.\"\n\nThe statement said Sir Philip would be represented by his lawyer in court as he was not required to attend personally.\n\nIt added: \"Contrary to previous suggestions in the media there is no allegation of any sexual assault or misconduct made by the prosecution.\"\n\nThe charges against Sir Philip come as his business faces significant challenges, with nearly 50 stores due to close and MPs calling on him to use his own wealth to fund the company's pension scheme.\n\nAmong the locations due to close are all 11 of Topshop and Topman's US stores.\n\nNext week, Sir Philip faces a crucial vote on the future of his Arcadia empire.

The American artist had never been to the French capital before, although she'd been inspired by others who had, namely Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Vincent van Gogh.\n\nShe was not impressed by the Louvre, the scale of which she found overwhelming and the art \"unbelievably bad\". The news she was about to receive would be much, much worse.\n\nThere had been an accident back home, she was told. Her husband, who had stayed at their East Hampton house on Long Island, New York state, while she went on her European adventure, had crashed his convertible car at 10pm the night before.\n\nThere were two female passengers in the overturned vehicle. One had been killed, the other, Ruth Kligman, was OK.\n\nAnd then this: the driver, the man she had married 11 years earlier, the painter she had supported through all his artistic difficulties and battles with alcoholism, the one person on Earth with whom she truly connected, had not survived.\n\nLee Krasner, who was in the shadow of her husband, celebrated artist Jackson Pollock, seen here in Springs, 1946\n\nWhen they first met, in the early 1940s, Krasner was considered the more accomplished artist. But ever since Mural (1943), Pollock's huge, ground-breaking, abstract painting, it had been her husband's work that garnered all the attention. The shadow his fame had cast over her own career as a significant player in post-war American Expressionism looked as if it would only grow longer with his death.\n\nAnd so it did. Jackson Pollock became a mythical figure: immortalised in Hans Namuth's photographs, romanticised as a troubled genius, and fought over by billionaires and institutions desperate for a signature piece. (It's amazing what dying will do for an artist's career.)\n\nMeanwhile, Lee Krasner went about her business as an artist, while also taking on the additional burden of looking after her deceased husband's estate. Legal tussles, legacy issues and authentication meant this was no easy task\n\nHans Namuth took this photograph of Lee Krasner in her studio in 1962\n\nTrue, she was exhibited, but there tended to be a Jackson shaped elephant in the room. Either her work was seen in the context of his, or he wasn't mentioned at all. Neither approach was satisfactory. She remained in his shadow even after her death in 1984.\n\nThat was 35 years ago. Now, at last, there is a confident, intelligent exhibition, presenting Lee Krasner in her rightful position as one of the most important painters of the 20th Century.\n\nThere is no need for Jackson denial or comparison. His presence in her life is evident. It can be seen in material form in her collage Bald Eagle (1955), which contains paint splattered fragments of a Pollock picture. It can be felt, too…\n\nThere is a small, dark room in this exhibition, in which hangs a series of four large paintings, inspired by Picasso's famous Les Demoiselles Avignon (1907). The first is ominously called Prophecy (1956). Krasner painted it in the summer of 1956 before her trip to Europe, when her husband's drinking was as bad as the state of their marriage. It is a bulbous, fleshy, awkward image: both anxious and hopeful, menacing and heavy. She said it \"disturbed me enormously\".\n\nA few weeks later, Pollock was dead. Krasner returned and immediately continued with the series, saying: \"Painting is not separate from life. It is one. Do I want to live? My answer is yes - and I paint.\"\n\nThe three subsequent works - Birth (1956), Embrace (1956), and Three in Two (1956) - are deeper, angrier, magnificent paintings. If you want to know what raw pain and loss feel like, spend a few minutes in this room. They are technically accomplished, complicated pictures, delivering an emotional charge that you won't quickly forget.\n\nLee Krasner, Three in Two, 1956\n\nThree in Two is like a Tarantino movie but without the humour. It is full of blood, gore and anger; a reflection on Pollock's fatal car crash perhaps, and the fact that there was a third person in their marriage - his lover, the sole survivor of the accident, Ruth Kligman.\n\nThis room is the pivotal point of the exhibition. It is the apogee of Krasner's investigation into Cubist techniques and ideas, which started with her Nude Study from Life (1938), produced while she was a student of the German modernist Hans Hofmann. One glance at the wall on which this group of early drawings are exhibited and you will know why Hofmann said she was one of his finest students.\n\nShe quickly moved into abstraction, producing a series of \"Little Images\" in the mid-1940s, including the excellent, Miro-like Abstract No. 2 (1946-48) and the blood red Untitled (c. 1948-49).\n\nThere are misses among the hits, as you would expect from an artist who refused to settle on a single style, announcing rather grandly: \"I am not to be trusted around my old work for any length of time.\"\n\nHer mid-1950s collages are a mixed bag. Burning Candles (1955) fails to settle as a composition and is strangely irritating to look at, while Blue Level (1955) is admirable for its bravado and risk-taking, but didn't do it for me. Unlike Bird Talk (1955) and the aforementioned Bald Eagle, both of which would be very welcome on one of my walls.\n\nAs would any one of her giant abstract expressionist paintings from the mid-'60s. Unfortunately I don't live in a mansion or own a museum, or anywhere with the sort of wall space they'd need. But London's Barbican Art Gallery does, and they fill its central galleries, which, for once I am pleased to say, are pepped up with a little natural light.\n\nHere we see Krasner on an operatic scale, painting huge canvasses with looping strokes and a conductor's sense of rhythm. There is not a dud among them: painting after painting sings out from the walls in harmonious tones of red (Another Storm), orange (Courtship), green (Siren), or pink (Combat).\n\nKrasner said she liked jazz. You can not only see that in these paintings, you can hear it. Imagine seeing them alongside Kandinsky's series of Compositions - you'd need earmuffs!\n\nThey are a wonderful way to end a wonderful show. Lee Krasner was full of colour and ideas and life, as is this exhibition. Do go and see it if you can.", "Kim Hyok-chol is North Korea's US delegate and appeared at the Trump-Kim summit in Hanoi earlier this year\n\nIt is being reported across international media that North Korea's nuclear envoy has been executed as part of a purge of officials involved in a failed summit between the US and North Korea.\n\nBut there is a reason we treat reports about North Korean officials being executed with extreme caution. The claims are incredibly difficult to verify and they are very often wrong.\n\nBoth the South Korean media and the government in Seoul have reported on purges in the past - only for the \"executed\" officials to turn up a few weeks later looking alive and well next to the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.\n\nOn this occasion, a single anonymous source has told a newspaper in Seoul that Kim Hyok-chol, the former North Korean envoy to the US and a key figure in talks ahead of the summit between Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump in Hanoi, was executed at an airport in Pyongyang.\n\nThe source claims that he was punished alongside four other foreign ministry executives. They were all charged with spying for the US and poorly reporting on the negotiations without properly grasping US intentions.\n\nIt's also alleged that Kim Yong-chol, the North Korean leader's right hand man who was despatched to Washington to help arrange the Hanoi summit, has now been sent to a labour and re-education camp near the Chinese border.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. BBC's Laura Bicker explains why Trump is the 'biggest loser' from the summit\n\nThe report is plausible. These key officials have been out of the public eye since the summit in February. Kim Jong-un is clearly angry at the outcome of his talks with Donald Trump and may have been looking for someone to blame.\n\nHis diplomatic gamble with the US has so far failed to yield results, which puts him under pressure. Strict economic sanctions remain in place. Discussions between Washington and Pyongyang have stalled. In Pyongyang, the decision may have been taken that someone has to pay the price.\n\nIt's worth noting that the state's official Rodong Sinmun newspaper called out unspecified \"betrayers\" and \"turncoats\" in an editorial earlier this week. It said that those who \"committed anti-party\" and \"anti-revolutionary actions\" would come under the \"stern judgement of the revolution\". No names have been given, but the message is clear.\n\nKim Jong-un has carried out executions in the past. In 2013, Mr Kim's powerful uncle, Jang Song-thaek, was executed for treason. South Korean intelligence services announced his death days before it was declared by the North.\n\nUS President Donald Trump with Kim Yong-chol in the White House in June, 2018\n\nBut so often these reports have turned out to be, dare I say it, fake news.\n\nThe most (in)famous of these was the alleged death of singer Hyon Song-wol. In 2013, the same South Korean newspaper announced that she had been shot in a \"hail of machine gun fire while members of her orchestra looked on\".\n\nLast year, Hyon Song-wol swept into Seoul leading a visiting North Korean delegation ahead of the Winter Olympics looking rather glamorous in a fur coat and very much alive. She is now one of the most powerful women in North Korea.\n\nSouth Korean intelligence officials said in 2016 that the former military chief Ri Yong-gil had been executed for corruption. He appeared in state media a few months later - having been given a promotion.\n\nSources within North Korea can often be a reporter's most valued asset, but also one of our most troublesome. We have no way of checking their claims.\n\nIntelligence services in Seoul and in the US are trying to establish the fate of Kim Hyok-chol, but unless Pyongyang decides to announce it themselves, we may never know.", "Fans of Tottenham and and Liverpool soak up the Madrid atmosphere\n\nThousands of Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur fans are in Madrid for the Champions League final.\n\nThe Premier League sides meet at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium on Saturday evening, after both made remarkable comebacks in the semi-finals.\n\nMany supporters spent Friday making the journey to Spain from the UK.\n\nUefa said \"an organised group of people impersonating genuine stewards\" was behind a plot to steal match tickets and warned fans to be on their guard.\n\nIt said the group's aim was to steal tickets \"as if they were conducting the visual or technical ticket check\".\n\nSpurs and Liverpool fans are sharing 33,226 tickets for the final, which takes place at the 68,000-capacity home of Atletico Madrid.\n\nFans have been warned only to show their tickets at clearly marked check zones outside the Wanda Metropolitano.\n\nSpanish police have arrested a number of people for selling fake tickets, including a pair who were allegedly attempting to sell counterfeits near the Liverpool fans' meeting point in Madrid.\n\nThe UK government has issued travel advice those heading to the Spanish capital.\n\nSpanish police have told English football fans to \"behave like tourists\", as an extra 1,300 officers have been deployed to cope with the influx of supporters.\n\nAn acknowledgement from both sets of fans is that the Liverpool contingent is so far outnumbering that of their north London rivals.\n\nPolice said supporters had so far been well-behaved.\n\nA fan poses with the Uefa Champions League trophy in a Madrid square\n\nOfficer Jose Ramon Carrasco said: \"We understand they're going to be noisy, happy or singing or whatever - that's understandable.\n\n\"What's not understandable is maybe throwing bottles in the street, getting into fights.

Some are more robust than others but with a little more R&D I believe we will have a slew of different approaches, which is the way we've got to do this,\" she told BBC News.\n\nThe GEBCO-NF (Nippon Foundation) Alumni team was always a strong favourite to win the $7m (£5.5m) Shell Ocean Discovery XPRIZE. Its members all had extensive experience in the relevant fields.\n\nThe group triumphed by packaging an existing, state-of-the-art solution with a novel twist.\n\nSo, while its HUGIN autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is an established industry tool for echo-sounding the depths, its uncrewed surface vessel (USV) that deployed and recovered the sub was developed specially for the competition.\n\nThis boat, called Sea-Kit Maxlimer, was designed in Essex, UK.\n\nIt actually made headlines in another setting three weeks ago by carrying oysters and beer between Belgium and England - the first ever commercial cargo run across the North Sea by a water-going robot.\n\nA number of teams also competed to track a simulated pollutant in the water\n\nAll the teams that made it to the Mediterranean final were asked to despatch their un-piloted vehicles to a competition box some 15 nautical miles (28km) from the Greek port of Kalamata.\n\nOn arrival, the chosen technologies had just 24 hours to make an extensive, high-resolution (5m or better) bathymetric (depth) map; and take multiple pictures of the seabed.\n\nThe GEBCO-NF Alumni team covered 278 sq km in its allotted time, returning more than 10 images of identifiable geological features.\n\nAt a gala ceremony in Monaco on Friday, the group was presented with the Grand Prize winner trophy and $4M.

But their up and down manoeuvres enable the modules to also sample the water column.\n\nMost of what we know is the result of low-resolution satellite mapping\n\nBetter seafloor maps are needed for a host of reasons.\n\nThey are essential for navigation, of course, and for laying underwater cables and pipelines.\n\nThey are also important for fisheries management and conservation, because it is around the underwater mountains that wildlife tends to congregate. Each seamount is a biodiversity hotspot.\n\nIn addition, the rugged seafloor influences the behaviour of ocean currents and the vertical mixing of water.\n\nThis is information required to improve the models that forecast future climate change - because it is the oceans that play a critical role in moving heat around the planet.\n\nThe Sea-Kit boat and its Kongsberg Hugin AUV will now be tested in other ocean basins\n\nJonathan.Amos-INTERNET@bbc.co.uk and follow me on Twitter: @BBCAmos", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nThe Flow Country is a beautiful but precarious habitat which is critical in the fight against the effects of climate change.\n\nIt is widely considered to be the largest area of blanket bog in the world and acts as a giant carbon sink, soaking up huge amounts of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.\n\nDark and dappled, the landscape is of great interest to scientists and more recently to artists, who want to raise awareness of this remarkable place.\n\nAt first glance the massive expanse of moorland stretching across Caithness and Sutherland appears featureless but, if you stop and listen, it is teeming with life.\n\nA skylark shimmers towards the heavens, its song spiralling out over the bog. Tadpoles wiggle in peaty water underneath the shadows of skittering pond skaters.\n\nThe wind rushes over sphagnum moss and shakes the spiky, sticky sundew, which is slowly digesting the insects it has snared.\n\nAt first glance the landscape looks featureless\n\n\"Underneath our feet in the flow country there is an estimated 400 million tonnes of carbon,\" says Dr Roxane Andersen of the Environmental Research Institute at the University of the Highlands and Islands.\n\nThat amounts to three times as much carbon than is contained in all the trees in the UK, calculates Dr Andersen, who worries that the bog's role as a carbon sink is under threat.\n\nIt is though hard to feel a sense of urgency when you stand in the midst of this wild and beguiling country, which stretches for some 1,500 square miles (4,000 sq km) across the far north of the Scottish mainland.\n\nStanding amidst the black pools, Kathy Hinde is in her element.\n\nKathy Hinde uses a hydrophone to record sounds from the bog\n\nWearing a gentle smile and bedecked with headphones, sound mixer and huge fluffy microphone, Ms Hinde, who describes herself as a visual artist and composer, is capturing it all.\n\n\"What I'm really passionate about is trying to connect people with the natural world,\" says Ms Hinde, who is one of five artists from the Glasgow art house Cryptic who have been working here on the RSPB's Forsinard Flows nature reserve, preparing for a show at this summer's Edinburgh Fringe.\n\n\"I've got underwater microphones that I can throw into the bog pools and have a listen. I've also got those hydrophones I can bury into the squelching bog,\" explains Ms Hinde.\n\nAquatic insects such as water boatmen make clicking and popping sounds, she says, while some underwater invertebrates produce \"electronic sounding chirps\" and others undulate like synthesisers.\n\nThe soundscapes which Ms Hinde will produce from her recordings here, along with a water-powered musical sculpture, will be staged in Edinburgh's Royal Botanic Garden along with installations from the other artists.\n\nSculptures created by Heather Lander will house microhabitats made of ceramics, ink, paper and paintings.\n\nVisual artist Hannah Imlach will present images referencing the scientific instruments used on the bog. Luci Holland and Matthew Olden will produce soundscapes inspired by natural audio and scientific data gathered here.\n\nOn top of these installations the show, entitled Below the Blanket, will feature the premiere of a choral work composed by Malcolm Lindsay and sung by the Dunedin Consort, a baroque ensemble.\n\nThe entire project aims to highlight the importance of a habitat which is often forgotten and which has been neglected in the past.\n\nAs well as artists and wildlife, the bog is also swarming with scientists.\n\nBetween 2015 and 2017 there were 13 doctorates written about it, with much of that research focusing on climate change.\n\nThe area has been put forward for world heritage status\n\nAn outstanding application for World Heritage Status by the UK government in 2012, describes the Flow Country as \"the largest area of blanket bog in the world\".\n\n\"The peat is composed of not-quite-rotted-away remains of plants -and plants, when they're growing, take in carbon through photosynthesis. So that's holding carbon in the peat,\" explains Caroline Eccles of the RSPB and the Peatlands Partnership, a group which brings together government agencies, charities and educational establishments.\n\nThe RSPB's Caroline Eccles wants to bring the delights of the Flow Country to a wider audience.\n\nCrouching down she points out the most important plant in this process, the spongy, springy, multi-coloured sphagnum moss. Not for nothing is it nicknamed the bog builder.\n\nMs Eccles says she is thrilled to be involved with the fringe show, which she thinks will bring the delights of the flow country to a wider audience.\n\n\"We're hoping that it gives new insights and new ways of looking at the landscape,\" she says.\n\nSphagnum moss is known as the bog builder\n\nIt will be educational too. Dr Andersen says spreading awareness of the bog's importance in tackling climate change is vital, especially given the history of what many scientists regard as ill-judged political decisions which hampered that effort.\n\nIn the 1980s celebrities such as the late broadcaster Sir Terry Wogan and snooker player Steve Davis were encouraged by Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government to write off earnings against tax by investing in tree plantations on the bog.\n\nAs the money poured in, hundreds of thousands of non-native species were planted with the aim of creating jobs and boosting forestry.\n\nDr Roxane Andersen says forestry schemes damaged the bog's ability to store carbon dioxide\n\nThe scheme was not a success says Dr Andersen. In fact she has published evidence that it seriously damaged the bog's ability to store carbon dioxide.\n\nDisturbing the peatlands, whether by planting trees then or by the threat of drainage and evaporation as temperatures rise now, risks the loss of carbon \"at a much faster rate than it's been accumulated,\" she warns.\n\n\"Effectively it could fuel climate change rather than mitigate it,\" she says.\n\nAware of that risk, the RSPB has been leading efforts to clear the forest and return the bog to pristine condition.\n\nThe RSPB has built a field centre and observation tower at Forsinard\n\nThe charity's work and its decision to build a field centre and observation tower at Forsinard, some 15 miles from the northern tip of Great Britain, has at times attracted controversy.\n\nFading graffiti on a large shed near the centre reads \"No to RSPB plans\".\n\nThe RSPB insists that since the tower opened in 2015 opposition has faded.\n\nNow conservationists are working not just to fell trees but to raise the water level by damming forestry drains and furrows.\n\nThey were encouraged by research recently published by Dr Andersen which concluded that, with carefully-managed deforestation, the bog can return to its natural state as a carbon sink within about 15 years.\n\nThe aftermath of the wildfire on an area of Forsinard Flows\n\nStill, Dr Andersen frets that a drought which hit the area last summer - there have even been serious wildfires here - is a harbinger of what is to come, drying out the peatland in spite of the efforts to preserve it.\n\n\"That could be really serious,\" she says, stressing the urgency and importance of the conservation work on the moorlands or mires as they are also known.\n\n\"If we can get them to be in the state where they can be wet and have the right type of vegetation again then they might be much more resilient to these droughts and changes in climate pattern,\" says Dr Andersen.\n\nSucceeding, she says, is \"absolutely critical\".", "One raccoon dog was photographed during a confrontation with farm animals\n\nTwo escaped raccoon dogs that were said to be \"terrorising\" residents have been caught and returned to their owner.\n\nNottinghamshire Police had described the animals as \"potentially dangerous\" and one woman said her goat and pony were attacked.\n\nMandy Marsh - who owns the pony and goat - said one of the raccoon dogs also confronted a dog walker.\n\nHowever, the raccoon dogs' owner said they never posed a serious threat.\n\nThe male and female went missing from Big Lane, Clarborough, on Tuesday morning after digging their way out of their enclosure.\n\nPolice said they were found and recaptured in the local area late on Friday.\n\nHeadlines about the escaped raccoon dogs suggested they were terrorising people and that the village was under siege from the \"absolutely mad\" animals.\n\nHowever, their owner maintained they were terrified, which may have caused them to \"do silly things when they are in that state\".\n\nThey are part of the Canidae family, which includes dogs and foxes.\n\nThe RSPCA says they are wild animals, rather than pets, and should not be kept in houses.\n\n\"In these cases they often become aggressive and unmanageable,\" said Stephanie Jayson, senior exotics and wildlife trade officer from the RSPCA.\n\n\"And while they are too small to be dangerous, they can bite and scratch.\"\n\nRaccoon dogs do not eat large animals such as goats, but they do eat small animals, insects, fish, birds, fruits, nuts and berries.\n\nThe owner of the raccoon dogs did not want to comment after they were recaptured.\n\nHe previously told the BBC: \"They have escaped and that is my mistake, but it's important people don't think these animals are especially dangerous.\n\n\"I have been up through the night, I've been really grateful for the help given and offered, and it's been hard work.\"\n\nFollow BBC East Midlands on Facebook, on Twitter, or on Instagram.

What will the security operation involve and what hardware and staff will the president bring with him?\n\nWhenever the US president arrives in the UK, a multi-million-pound security operation is brought into action.\n\nMr Trump's three-day state visit in June, which involved more than 6,300 officers, cost the Metropolitan Police £3.4m, according to figures released under the Freedom of Information Act. A previous four-day working visit in 2018 cost more than £14.2m.\n\nHere are some of the incredible vehicles and entourage the president could be bringing with him this time around.\n\nThe president is likely to arrive in the UK on his customised, high-spec aircraft Air Force One.\n\nAir Force One isn't actually a specific plane but instead refers to one of two specially adapted Boeing 747-200B series aircraft, which carry the tail codes 28000 and 29000.\n\nWith its advanced avionics and defences, Air Force One is classed as a military aircraft, designed to withstand an air attack.\n\nIt can jam enemy radar and eject flares to throw heat-seeking missiles off course.\n\nIt is also capable of refuelling midair, allowing it to fly for an unlimited time - crucial in an emergency.\n\nAir Force One is also equipped with secure communications equipment, allowing the aircraft to function as a mobile command centre.\n\nThere are 85 onboard telephones, a collection of two-way radios and computer connections.\n\nInside, the president and his travel companions enjoy 4,000 sq ft of floor space on three levels, including an extensive suite for the president, a medical facility with an operating table, a conference and dining room, two food preparation galleys that can feed 100 people at a time, and designated areas for the press, VIPs, security and secretarial staff.\n\nSeveral cargo planes, including C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft, carry the president's fleet of armoured vehicles and helicopters, usually landing in advance of his arrival.\n\nAccording to the Washington Post, the president is always accompanied by a military aide carrying an emergency satchel known as the \"football\", which contains the \"gold codes\" for launching the country's nuclear weapons and options for their use.\n\nThe military aide must be nearby the president at all times, as the commander-in-chief is in possession of personal identification codes required to order a strike.\n\nThey are carried on a plastic card known as the \"biscuit\", which can be read only when its opaque plastic covering is snapped in two and removed.\n\nThe presidential motorcade, which includes two identical limousines and other security and communications vehicles, are transported ahead of the president by United States Air Force transport aircraft.\n\nOn the ground, the president travels in Cadillac One - a bullish, enhanced limousine dubbed the \"Beast\" for obvious reasons.\n\nThe spare, decoy vehicle that accompanies it has the same Washington DC licence plates - 800-002.\n\nPresident Trump's generation of presidential car debuted in 2018 -

They are always our priority,\" a Ford spokesman said.\n\nProf Morgan, professor of governance and development at Cardiff University, added: \"What does Welsh Government do now about re-equipping that workforce with alternative forms of employment?\n\n\"We'll need to be more agile than we've been in 20 years of devolution\".\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nFormer first minister Carwyn Jones said while the company publicly denied the decision was related, it had privately told the Welsh Government the prospect of leaving the EU without a deal was a factor.\n\nFord said it would still have gone ahead with the proposed closure in the absence of the Brexit issue, but added \"we have consistently stated that a no deal, hard Brexit would be catastrophic for our operations and for much of the auto industry in the UK\".\n\nBut Mr Jones told BBC Radio Wales' Sunday Supplement that closure was \"never on the agenda\" for Ford and \"nobody anticipated\" it.\n\n\"It seems to me that the decision was taken a week or a fortnight before the announcement, so it was something very quick, something changed in that time for them to move to a position where they proposed closure.\n\n\"I know they said publicly Brexit wasn't a factor, but that's not what they told the [Economy and Transport] Minister Ken Skates.\n\n\"Brexit was not a dominant factor, there are other reasons of course, but nevertheless it was a factor and they went into detail why it was definitely a factor.\"\n\nResponding to Mr Jones' comments, Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns said the UK Government had voted to \"bring about stability in every possible stage of the Brexit negotiations\".\n\nHe said that although \"certainty on Brexit is important to the economy and the manufacturing sector\", Ford had been \"explicit\" that Brexit was not part of the decision to close the Bridgend factory.\n\n\"If they were going to manufacture in Europe instead of moving their plant to Mexico, then there would be more credibility to the question around the role Brexit has played here,\" he said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Afonso Henriques, and many supporters actually headed for the exits at the end of normal time to enjoy the sunshine in Guimaraes.\n\nThe overall emotion will be disappointment after falling at the semi-final, as England did in the World Cup, but at least the additional pain of the wooden spoon here was avoided.\n\nAnd Pickford at least provided some form of dramatic storyline by the manner in which he rammed his penalty high past Sommer in front of England's celebrating fans before diving to his right to save from Drmic to finally give some cause for celebration.\n\nSouthgate will have another bonus when the dust settles on England's ultimately unfulfilling Uefa Nations League finals.\n\nThat came in the performances of Liverpool duo Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez, who played in a manner which suggested they are more than ready to become a regular part of England's starting line-up.\n\nAlexander-Arnold gave a superb performance at right-back, not only completing admittedly rare defensive duties but giving a masterclass of the attacking side of the game.\n\nThe 20-year-old who won the Champions League with Liverpool in Madrid, provided a stream of quality service and his all-round display was in contrast to the sloppiness of his main rival for a starting place, Kyle Walker, in England's two games here in Portugal. It was a surprise when he was switched to the left to accommodate Walker's arrival as a substitute.\n\nGomez, whose season was curtailed by a broken leg sustained at Burnley and was only a substitute when Liverpool enjoyed their glory in Madrid, also showed he will soon be pushing his way to the front of the queue of England's central defenders.\n\nGomez has pace, power and composure and Southgate must hope he now enjoys an injury-free run because he can become a formidable presence at the heart of England's defence.\n\nThere was an almost surreal atmosphere surrounding this third-place play-off.\n\nEngland and Switzerland, whose players looked pretty much spent, could have been forgiven for wanting to take the first plane home and going on holiday once they had lost their semi-finals to the Netherlands and Portugal respectively.\n\nUefa, however, wanted to give this tournament the air of a major event and to just have two semi-finals then a final would have made things very short and sweet. In this context, their position was understandable.\n\nThere was occasionally a friendly feel as passages of play were conducted in silence, although England's fans were vociferous, especially in their condemnation of VAR after Wilson's goal was ruled out.\n\nIt is a tough decision because clearly Uefa wants this Nations League to grow, although the under-stated celebrations and presentation of medals gave an indicator into its status.\n\nWhat they said\n\nEngland boss Gareth Southgate: \"We weren't against Jordan taking a penalty at the World Cup last summer, it was probably just that a few others had shown a better level but he would be among our better penalty takers.\n\n\"Of course if it goes against you, you know as a coach you get it in the neck so I was really pleased to see it go in.\n\n\"We all wanted to go forward further and there was a determination to go out with a strong performance. We owed it to ourselves as a group and the 98% of the fans who have supported us incredibly.\n\n\"We recognise now that you don't get many opportunities as an international team and we want to really strive to take the next step.\"\n\nEngland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford: \"We always say, 'Do what it takes to win a game', and I was a bit nervous taking my penalty - but I'm not nervous saving them.\n\n\"We practise them when there's a major competition or the Nations League, we practise them consistently. I picked my spot and I always seem to be able to get a goal, but I've never taken one in a real game, so I was a bit nervous.\n\n\"I think we took (off) Harry Kane and some of the other lads who take penalties, so I wasn't sure where I was in the pecking order.

Our co-op has been in existence for 30 years and during that period of time we have had boats off Rockall every single year.\n\n\"They are going to see out their trips. They have no intention of leaving there at the moment.\n\n\"What the Scots have done is brought in a rule that is against the law of the sea. It is against EU law and has no legal standing whatsoever.\"\n\nHe added: \"Our vessels are going to continue fishing under European legislation and they are perfectly entitled to do that. Hopefully the Scots will not be sending naval vessels and this can all be sorted out at a government level.\n\n\"We feel that this is a political stunt by the SNP. The Irish government have to fight this tooth and nail.\n\n\"There is no tension at all between the Scottish and Irish fishermen. This has blindsided us. It's just come out of the blue.\n\n\"Our fishermen are determined to stick to their guns on this one.\"\n\nRockall - an eroded volcano - lies 260 miles (418km) west of the Western Isles and is only 100ft (30m) wide and 70ft (21m) high above the sea.\n\nThe UK claimed Rockall in 1955, but Ireland, Iceland and Denmark have previously challenged that claim.\n\nThe row between Scotland and Ireland broke out after increased activity from Irish vessels around Rockall.\n\nScotland's Fisheries Minister Fergus Ewing told BBC Scotland: \"This is a routine enforcement matter to ensure that illegal activity within the UK's territorial waters, namely within a radius of 12 miles of the islet of Rockall, ceases.\n\n\"We have been engaging with the Irish government for a considerable length of time because we would prefer that this matter is resolved by discussion and negotiation amicably, and that remains the case.\"\n\nHe said the Irish government had been formally notified of intended enforcement action on 31 May but there had been communication about the issue last September.\n\n\"All of these steps we have sought to take to bring about an amicable agreement have failed,\" he said. \"That leaves us with no alternative but to seek to enforce the law and that is what we will now proceed to do.\n\n\"We have made absolutely clear our view. We are sure of the legal position and of our legal ground and it is my duty to ensure that the law is enforced.\"\n\nFergus Ewing said the Scottish government had been trying to resolve the matter amicably\n\nHe said there had been \"substantial evidence\" of illegal activity and that the enforcement action had \"nothing whatsoever to do with politics or Brexit\".\n\n\"Doing something illegal repeatedly does not make it legal\", he added.\n\n\"I do hope that the Irish government will intervene to provide clear advice to their fishers to cease and desist.\"\n\nOn Saturday, Bertie Armstrong from the Scottish Fishermen's Federation (SFF), said the increased Irish activity was clearly illegal.\n\nHe said it was time for Scotland to \"put its money where its mouth is\" and for the Scottish government to enforce control of its waters.\n\nEnforcement action could involve patrol boats from the Scottish government going alongside any vessel believed to be breaking the law and, if necessary, making arrests.\n\nOn Friday, the Irish government's minister for agriculture, food and the marine Michael Creed said he was trying to \"avoid a situation whereby Irish fishing vessels who continue to fish for haddock, squid and other species in the 12-mile area around Rockall are under the unwarranted threat of 'enforcement action' by the Scottish government\".\n\nHe added: \"However, following this sustained unilateral action by them, I have no option but to put our fishing industry on notice of the stated intention of the Scottish government.\"\n\nThe Rockall fishery is a multi-million pound annual fishery, with several species of fish including haddock, monkfish and squid.", "Many Venezuelans crossed the border to buy basic goods\n\nTens of thousands of people crossed the border with Venezuela and Colombia after it reopened for the first time in four months on Saturday, officials say.\n\nThe crossing was closed in February at President Nicolás Maduro's request as opposition leader Juan Guaidó prepared to bring in US-backed humanitarian aid.\n\nThe country has faced shortages of basic supplies as a result of a severe years-long economic crisis.\n\nMore than four million people have fled Venezuela since 2015, UN agencies say.\n\nAccording to Colombia's foreign ministry, more than 30,000 Venezuelans arrived on Saturday, with almost 37,000 leaving by the end of the day.\n\nThe borders with Colombia, Brazil and Dutch Antilles islands were all closed earlier this year after the opposition organised the delivery of foreign aid, which was denounced by Mr Maduro as part of an effort to remove him.\n\nLast month, Mr Maduro announced the reopening of the border with Brazil and the island of Aruba, but Aruban authorities said the border would remain closed.\n\nAnnouncing the reopening of the border with Colombia on Twitter, Mr Maduro - who has blamed the country's crisis on a Washington-led economic war - said (in Spanish): \"We're a people of peace that strongly defends our independence and self-determination.\"\n\nThousands of people queued to cross the border\n\nThe closures had caused problems for towns along the border that have come to rely on Colombian cities for essential products and services, and many people have crossed illegally, at times having to pay tolls to criminals controlling passage.\n\nBefore it closed, some 30,000 people a day would cross the Simon Bolivar International Bridge every day, AFP news agency said.\n\nThe crisis in Venezuela deepened in January after Mr Guaidó, head of the National Assembly, declared himself interim president, arguing that Mr Maduro's re-election last year had been \"illegitimate\".\n\nHe has since been recognised by more than 50 countries, including the US and most of Latin America.

This is a company keeping its options open.\n\nI see it shaping up something like this: the new console will be for serious gamers, the types who demand the high-fidelity, premium experience. The type of people who are at E3, which is why the news of the new console was met with such excitement in the room.\n\nThis crowd was less excited about xCloud, the streaming service, but that's likely because this will be about attracting more casual fans, who are satisfied with the quality Microsoft will be able to deliver down an internet connection.\n\nBut Google's Stadia might get to those gamers, that enormous market, first.

I had grass on my wheels.\"\n\nTold to stay focused, he said: \"I am focused but they are stealing the race from us.\"\n\nVettel complained that Hamilton could have gone to the inside but that was inaccurate reading of the situation as it unfolded.\n\nNevertheless, doubtless many will feel that Vettel should have been excused and the drivers allowed to race.\n\nHowever, others will see it as yet another error under pressure from Vettel, whose 2018 season unravelled as a result of a series of them and who made another in Bahrain earlier this year, spinning after being passed by Hamilton.\n\nAnd the stewards may well have used precedent to inform the decision, such as when Red Bull's Max Verstappen was penalised in the same fashion for forcing then-Ferrari driver Kimi Raikkonen off the track in last year's Japanese Grand Prix.\n\nHow did it unfold?\n\nVettel had been in front of the race from the start, after converting his pole position, and led through the pit stops.\n\nBut once on to the hard tyres after the stops, Hamilton began to pile the pressure on Vettel.\n\nHe rejoined after his stop on lap 29 five seconds behind Vettel and was on his tail 10 laps later.\n\nHamilton stayed within a second of Vettel for the next nine laps until the key moment.\n\nVettel made a mistake entering the challenging Turn Three/Four chicane and ran over the grass on the second, left-handed part.\n\nAs he rejoined the track, Hamilton went to overtake him around the outside, but Vettel did not leave him a car's width on the outside of the track and the Mercedes driver had to back off.\n\nIt cost Ferrari another victory in 2019, a year in which Mercedes have won every race, but in which the Italian team could have had two and possibly three wins out of seven.\n\nAnd it also ended what had been a tense, exciting race, in which two of the finest drivers in the world were battling closely.\n\nVettel's team-mate Charles Leclerc lost victory in Bahrain when his engine hit problems late in the race, the Monegasque was looking the form man in Azerbaijan before a crash in qualifying. And now Vettel has cost Ferrari another win.\n\nHe was furious with the decision, saying over the radio at the end of the race: \"No, no, no. Not like that. You have to be an absolute blind man, you go on the grass how are you supposed to control your car. This is the wrong world.\"\n\nHe then pulled over in the pits long before the parc ferme area where he is meant to stop and pushed his car backwards into the garage of governing body the FIA.\n\nThen he stormed off into the Ferrari area, and appeared to decide he was not going to go to the podium, but was collected by an F1 official, and then went through the Mercedes garage before finally heading to the podium.\n\nOn the way, Vettel moved the number one board from in front of Hamilton's Mercedes and moved it in front of the empty space where his car should have been.\n\nHe entered the green room and said to Hamilton: \"Where am I supposed to go?\"\n\nHamilton responded with a shrug: \"Ach.\" Then added: \"Hard race, though, man.\"\n\nHamilton, meanwhile, received some boos from the crowd as he insisted: \"Naturally that's absolutely not the way I wanted to win.\n\n\"I took the corner normally, but when you come back on the track you are not meant to come back straight on the racing line. You're meant to rejoin safely.\n\n\"I forced the error and he went wide... we nearly collided, but that's motor racing.\"\n\nHamilton had dropped back to 2.5secs behind Vettel when the drivers were informed of the penalty but he soon closed right back up to Vettel's tail, as Leclerc in third place began to close on both of them.\n\nLeclerc did not quite manage to get close enough to Vettel to overtake him once the German's penalty was applied.\n\nHamilton's team-mate Valtteri Bottas had a quiet race on his way to fourth place, while Red Bull's Max Verstappen fought back from ninth on the grid to take fifth ahead of the Renaults of Daniel Ricciardo and Nico Hulkenberg.\n\nWhat happens next?\n\nFrance in two weeks' time. Unfortunately for Ferrari, the track layout is likely to favour Mercedes and that first win for the red cars will probably have to wait a while longer.\n\nWhat they said\n\nSebastian Vettel: \"Well I think first of all, I really enjoyed the race and the crowd on every lap. Seeing them cheer me on it was very intense. I think you should ask the pitwall what they think we had a great show and Lewis showed some good respect.\"\n\nCharles Leclerc: \"I'm pretty happy with my performance. We were very quick. The race pace was strong. I'm disappointed for the team - I don't know what happened [with Seb] but the team deserved a victory today\"", "Transgender activist Munroe Bergdorf says she is \"unbelievably sad\" that the NSPCC has cut ties with her, days after she revealed she was Childline's \"first LGBT+ campaigner\".\n\nShe said the charity was \"bowing down to pressure from a transphobic lobby\".\n\nHer appointment had been criticised by some on Twitter, with Ms Bergdorf described as a \"porn model\" and her appointment called \"inappropriate\".\n\nThe NSPCC has not explained exactly why it made the decision.\n\nBut the BBC has been told that NSPCC trustees received \"transphobic letters\" after the appointment was announced on Wednesday.\n\nIn a statement, the NSPCC said Ms Bergdorf \"has supported the most recent phase of Childline's campaign which aims to support children with LGBTQ+ concerns\" but she would have \"no ongoing relationship with Childline or the NSPCC\".\n\nMs Bergdorf said she was \"unbelievably sad\" and referring to the timing, during Pride month, added: \"Pride is about resisting this kind of hate, not giving in to it.\"\n\nWhen she announced the partnership, Ms Bergdorf had said: \"I'm excited to have the opportunity to let more kids know that they are not alone in how they feel.\n\n\"There are people who care, people who can help and people who have been through the same things as you, so PLEASE don't suffer in silence.\"\n\nOn the same day, the NSPCC revealed that within the last year it had carried out more than 6,000 counselling sessions through its Childline service over issues relating to gender and sexuality.\n\nThe charity's research also showed that children between the ages of 12 and 15 were most likely to contact them about these topics.\n\nHowever, a number of negative tweets followed the announcement, with several taking offence at Ms Bergdorf having posed for Playboy in 2018.\n\nSome claimed her appointment was \"inappropriate\" and Times journalist Janice Turner said there would be \"cancelled direct debits\" in response.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

His shot appeared to glance off the chest of Magennis and evade Estonia goalkeeper Sergei Lepmets, meaning the goal was initially awarded to Magennis, though, it was later given to Washington.\n\nMagennis, who scored a late winner to beat Belarus in March, combined with fellow substitute Jones to complete the comeback with a fine deft touch.\n\nNorthern Ireland will look to make it four wins from four in Group C when they travel to Barysaw to play Belarus on Tuesday with a formidable double-header against the Netherlands and Germany awaiting them in the autumn.\n\nDespite dominating possession in the opening moments, Northern Ireland were outshone by their hosts, who are ranked 63 places below them, for much of the first half.\n\nEstonia looked sharper, which is perhaps unsurprising given the majority of their players are midway through their club seasons, with the Estonian top flight running between March and November.\n\nEstonia's goalscorer and captain Vassiljev looked particularly imposing in the middle of the park with Northern Ireland's midfield three of Steven Davis, Paddy McNair and George Saville struggling to take a hold of the game.\n\nBut O'Neill's side came out in the second half with a renewed vigour to their play, helped in large by the introduction of Washington, who replaced Liam Boyce at half-time.\n\nThe recently released Sheffield United forward frequently came short to receive possession and drive at the Estonia defence, where Boyce had been bullied by the powerful pairing of Karol Mets and Vihmann.\n\nAnd with the introduction of Jones and Magennis, the visitors only grew in confidence as they began to create chances at will.\n\nSaville spurned two chances in quick succession and Jonny Evans headed over from a corner as they pushed for an equaliser.\n\nJones was particularly impressive as he repeatedly ran at the Estonia defence and he could have made it 3-1 late on with a flashing drive that went just past the post.\n\nBut Estonia did miss a golden chance to level late on when Artjom Dmitrijev failed to get a free header on target.\n\nGermany and Netherlands wait on the horizon\n\nNorthern Ireland boss O'Neill set a goal of picking up maximum points from his side's opening four Euro 2020 qualifiers.\n\nBefore his team's tie in Tallinn he even spoke of setting up a \"three-team group\" with the Netherlands and Germany, by beating Estonia and Belarus this month.\n\nHowever, those aspirations were very much in danger as the game entered the closing stages at the A Le Coq Arena in Tallinn, especially for a side without an away win in their last seven attempts.\n\nBut Washington was on hand to equalise and score Northern Ireland's first away goal in 719 minutes, covering seven games, before Magennis sealed their triumph.\n\nNorthern Ireland's attentions will now turn to Tuesday's game against Belarus where a victory would see them take 12 points from their opening four qualifiers.\n\nBut even if O'Neill's side can do that, qualification for the finals is by no means secured because only two teams will progress from Group C.\n\nAnd the favourites to take those two spots are four-time world champions Germany, who visit Belfast in September before an away game against Nations League finalists the Netherlands in October.\n\nNorthern Ireland then host the Netherlands in November before completing their qualifying campaign with a trip to Germany.\n\nNI do the double over Estonia - the stats\n• None Northern Ireland have won four of their six meetings with Estonia (L2), including both meetings in 2019.\n• None Estonia have now lost each of their last five European Championship qualifying matches, with today seeing their only goal scored in those five defeats.\n• None Northern Ireland have only lost one of their last 13 qualifying matches for the European Championship (W9 D3), with today's win extending their unbeaten run in such games to nine (W6 D3).\n• None Conor Washington became the first NI player to score a goal in an away international match since Steve Davis against San Marino in September 2017, ending a run of seven games and 719 minutes without a goal away from home for the Green and White Army.\n• None Josh Magennis has scored two goals in his last two appearances for Northern Ireland, one more than he managed in his previous 11.\n• None There were just 167 seconds between Northern Ireland's equaliser from Conor Washington and their winning goal by Josh Magennis.\n• None Konstantin Vassiljev's goal was Estonia's first scored directly from a free-kick in a European Championship qualifier since Vassiljev himself scored one in March 2011 versus Serbia.\n• None Attempt missed.

It's a dream,\" said Nadal.\n\n\"To play for the first time in 2005 - I never thought in 2019 I'd still be here. It's an incredible moment and very special for me.\"\n\nIt leaves the left-hander two Grand Slam titles adrift of Switzerland's Roger Federer, who he beat in the semi-finals, and three clear of Serbian world number one Novak Djokovic, whose bid to hold all four majors was ended by Thiem.\n\nThe second seed slid to the red dirt in triumph when he clinched victory on the second match point, lying behind the baseline with his arms outstretched as he contemplated the magnitude of his achievement.\n\nWith clay plastered over his back, he clambered to his feet and took the acclaim of an enthralled Roland Garros crowd which has become accustomed to seeing him triumph.\n\nThiem, 25, suffered his second Grand Slam final defeat after losing in three sets to Nadal in last year's final.\n• None Return to tennis my best decision - Barty reflects on French Open triumph\n\nHundreds of Spanish fans milling around outside Chatrier, identified by their red and yellow flags, football shirts and facepaint, has become an almost annual event before the men's final at Roland Garros since 2005.\n\nNadal has won on all but three of his appearances here, with his only defeats coming in the 2009 fourth-round by Robin Soderling and 2015 quarter-finals against Djokovic. In 2016, he pulled out before the third round with injury.\n\nThat meant he went into Sunday's final with a Roland Garros record of 92 wins and two defeats.\n\nA fiercely contested first set was closer than the scoreline suggests, Nadal rattling off the final four games to edge ahead after 55 tense minutes.\n\nBoth players understood the importance of making a quick start, Nadal attempting to take advantage of any mental and physical fatigue in his opponent, who only finished his delayed semi-final against top seed Djokovic less than 24 hours earlier.\n\nThe result was a physical battle, full of intense rallies as each man tried to gain the upper hand by brute force.\n\nThiem earned the first break point of the match at 2-2, putting away an overhead which left many inside Chatrier - which only included a handful of red and white-clad Austrian fans - jumping to their feet in celebration.\n\nNadal responded instantly, earning three break points in the next game and taking the second with a precise forehand which fizzed past Thiem.\n\nSticking with Nadal was one thing, turning that into taking a set off the champion proved to be a tougher task.\n\nNadal saw off another break point in a lengthy service game for a 4-3 lead, a pivotal moment as he moved 5-3 ahead as an aggressive backhand rocked Thiem on break point.\n\nThat left Nadal serving for the opening set, which he clinched when Thiem dragged a backhand wide on the second set point.\n\nMental and physical exertions take their toll on Thiem\n\nThiem knew he could scarcely afford to go a set behind the reigning champion - and falling two adrift would have all but extinguished his hopes.\n\nFollowing the intensity of the opening set, the level dropped in the second as serve dominated.\n\nOnly six receiving points were won in the opening 11 games - five for Nadal and just one for Thiem - before Thiem, out of nowhere, found himself with two set points.\n\nAnd the Austrian levelled the match when Nadal blinked again, hitting a backhand long after a 10-shot rally.\n\nBut the exertions of winning that set, playing four days in a row and having 24 hours fewer than Nadal to recover from the semi-finals, perhaps took their toll.\n\nNadal nipped off court at the end of the set, possibly for a mental reset as much as anything else, leaving Thiem waiting on the baseline for the start of the third set.\n\nWhether Nadal was using delaying tactics or not, the break of momentum worked.\n\nThiem delivered a poor service game as Nadal broke to love, the Spaniard backing that up with a hold to love sealed with an exquisite stun volley that even prompted a thumbs up from the Austrian.\n\nNadal won the opening 11 points of the third and clinched the double break with a trademark forehand down the line, an exuberant quadruple fist-pump celebration along the baseline stressing its importance.\n\nThiem won just seven points in the third set before ending a miserable 30 minutes with another unforced error into the net.\n\nHe began to look weary in the fourth set - particularly mentally - and Nadal smelt blood.\n\nThe Spaniard moved into a 3-0 lead, after seeing off break points in his two service games, before breaking again for a 5-1 lead.\n\nAlthough Thiem saved one match point, he could not prevent the inevitable and batted a Nadal serve long to spark jubilant celebrations from the Spaniard.\n\nFormer British number one Greg Rusedski on BBC Radio 5 Live\n\nThat was by far the best match we've seen at these championships.\n\nThiem was physically standing toe-to-toe with Nadal in the first set. We knew Thiem had to get off a great start to win his first major and he did that. It was electrifying.\n\nIt had a different feel to last year's final. Thiem wasn't overawed. He was not like a deer in headlights as he was last year in his first major final.\n\nBut it was about as well as I've seen Nadal play on a clay court and that's saying a lot for an 12-time champion.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "Sian Berry is co-leader of the Green Party, alongside Jonathan Bartley\n\nA recent rise in support for the Green Party shows it is no longer considered just a destination for protest voters, co-leader Sian Berry has said.\n\nMore than two million people voted Green in the UK's recent European elections, giving the party seven MEPs.\n\nThe Greens then came fifth in the Peterborough by-election.

The first game is always the most difficult game but we set certain standards and the players know we need to keep meeting those standards.\n\n\"If we don't, we get second half performances like we just got. We've got to be relentless now.\n\n\"I think at 2-0 in this heat, we thought it was going to be easy in the second half. It's a lesson that every game in this World Cup is going to be difficult.\"\n\nScotland boss Shelley Kerr: \"We know we need to win one game, it doesn't have to be the first game, even if it would have been nice.\n\n\"At a top competition like the World Cup you need to scrutinise yourself to the max, there were a lot of positives for us in the second half though.\"\n\nA first since 1995 - the stats\n• None England won their opening match of a Women's World Cup tournament for the second time ever and the first time since 1995.\n• None Nikita Parris' opening goal in this match was her 13th for England, but the first from the penalty spot.\n• None Ellen White has scored a goal in each of her past three international appearances for England against Scotland.\n• None Karen Carney won her 141st cap for England in this match, overtaking Alex Scott's total of 140 caps for England women.

there are people who need to be rooted out of the party.\"\n\nIn response to the question from Abdullah Patel on the TV debate, leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson said he was \"sorry for the offence\" his comments about veiled Muslim women looking like \"letter boxes\" and \"bank robbers\" had caused, and mentioned his great-grandfather was a Muslim.\n\nBaroness Warsi, who was the UK's first female Muslim cabinet minister, said: \"It's really important that whoever becomes PM keeps this promise.\n\n\"It was made on national TV, so I hope they will.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\n\"Secondly, [I hope] that they genuinely appoint someone who is independent and who is trusted really.\"\n\nMeanwhile, concerns have been raised about allegedly anti-Semitic social media posts from Mr Patel's now-deleted Twitter account.\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live presenter Nicky Campbell, who interviewed Mr Patel on his breakfast show, apologised on Twitter, saying the imam's social media comments were \"extremely disturbing\" and they \"should have checked\".\n\nThe BBC defended its vetting process, saying in a statement that \"one individual reactivated a public twitter account he had previously deactivated\" following the debate, resulting in the tweets not being visible during the background research process.\n\n\"Had we been aware of the views he expressed there he would not have been selected,\" the statement said.", "Gambling ads that appeared on an app \"appealing to under 18s\" have been banned by the advertising watchdog.\n\nThe ads for LottoGo EuroMillions, William Hill Vegas, Betfair Bingo and Dunder came up in the Looney Tunes World of Mayhem app in February.\n\nAll four firms say they have since stopped working with affiliate company Tapjoy, which placed ads on the app.\n\nThe ASA ruled the ads must not be used again without limiting the risk of children being exposed to them.\n\nIn its ruling, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said Tapjoy acknowledged the Looney Tunes app had been mistakenly categorised with a \"mature-gambling\" setting.\n\nAnd Scopely, the publisher of Looney Tunes World of Mayhem, told the ASA it did not target its games to children, and noted that individuals under the age of 16 in the EU are not permitted to play the games.\n\nThe game has a rating of PEGI 7 in the UK Google Play app store, meaning it was suitable for players aged seven and above.\n\nIt allowed users to build worlds and situations based on the Looney Tunes cartoons and collect characters to \"battle\" each other.\n\nThe ASA said: \"Given the use of cartoon characters, cartoonish violence and the relatively simple nature of the game, we considered it was likely to appeal to many under-18s.\n\n\"However, we acknowledged that the characters would be well known to older players, and the game was likely to have more general appeal.\"\n\nWilliam Hill told the ASA it is conducting a full review into work with its affiliates to prevent the issue happening again.", "The Hexagon images were declassified in 2011 and digitised for scientific study\n\nImages from Cold War spy satellites have revealed the dramatic extent of ice loss in the Himalayan glaciers.\n\nScientists compared photographs taken by a US reconnaissance programme with recent spacecraft observations and found that melting in the region has doubled over the last 40 years.\n\nThe study shows that since 2000, glaciers heights have been shrinking by an average of 0.5m per year.\n\nThe researchers say that climate change is the main cause.\n\n\"From this study, we really see the clearest picture yet of how Himalayan glaciers have changed,\" Joshua Maurer, from Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in New York, told BBC News.\n\nThe research is published in the journal Science Advances.\n\nDuring the 1970s and 1980s, a US spy programme - codenamed Hexagon - launched 20 satellites into orbit to secretly photograph the Earth.\n\nThe covert images were taken on rolls of film that were then dropped by the satellites into the atmosphere to be collected mid-air by passing military planes.\n\nThe material was declassified in 2011, and has been digitised by the US Geological Survey for scientists to use.\n\nAmong the spy photos are the Himalayas - an area for which historical data is scarce.\n\nBy comparing these pictures with more recent satellite data from Nasa and the Japanese space agency (Jaxa), the researchers have been able to see how the region has changed.\n\nThe Columbia University team looked at 650 glaciers in the Himalayas spanning 2,000km.\n\nThe group found that between 1975 and 2000, an average of 4bn tonnes of ice was being lost each year.\n\nBut between 2000 and 2016, the glaciers melted approximately twice as fast - losing about 8bn tonnes of ice each year on average.\n\nWe now have a satellite record approaching nearly 50 years in length\n\nMr Maurer said: \"For a sense of scale, 8bn tonnes of ice is enough to fill 3.2 million Olympic-sized swimming pools per year.\"\n\nAnd the ice loss was not uniform, he added.\n\n\"Glaciers lose most of their ice in the lower elevation portions of the glacier, and it's there where most of the thinning is concentrated.\n\n\"Some of those zones have been thinning by as much as 5m per year.\"\n\nAmong the scientific community, there has been some debate over the cause. Changes in rainfall in the region and soot deposited from industrial pollutants are thought to have hastened the melt.\n\nHowever the Columbia team said that while these factors were contributing, rising temperatures in the Himalayas were the main cause.\n\n\"The fact we see such a similar spatial pattern of ice loss across so many glaciers across such a large and climatically complex region suggests there needs to be some kind of overall forcing affecting all of the glaciers similarly.\"\n\nThe Hexagon photographs would come down in a capsule from the satellites\n\nScientists say continued losses will have a huge impact.\n\nIn the short-term, the huge increase in meltwater could cause flooding.\n\nIn the longer term, millions of people in the region who depend on glacier meltwater during drought years could experience very real difficulties.\n\nCommenting on the research, Dr Hamish Pritchard from the British Antarctic Survey, said: \"What's new here is being able to see how the melting of glaciers across the whole Himalayan range has increased due to climate change.\n\n\"Over one generation, the melt has doubled and these glaciers are now shrinking fast.\n\n\"Why does this matter? Because when the ice runs out, some of Asia's most important rivers will lose a water supply that keeps them flowing through drought summers, just when water is at its most valuable.\n\n\"Without mountain glaciers, droughts will be worse for millions of water-stressed people living downstream.\"\n\nThe view of the Himalayas for the International Space station", "Three Russian men and one Ukrainian man are to be charged with murder in relation to the downing of a Malaysia Airlines jet in eastern Ukraine in 2014.\n\nPassenger flight MH17 was en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it was hit by a missile over conflict-hit eastern Ukraine.\n\nAll 298 passengers and crew on board the plane were killed.\n\nThe Dutch-led investigating team said the four are suspected of transporting the missile system used to shoot down the plane.", "The makers of Fortnite say they were \"surprised\" when Prince Harry called the game \"irresponsible\".\n\nBack in April, the Duke of Sussex said the game should be banned.\n\n\"It's created to addict and keep you in front of the computer for as long as possible,\" he said at the time.\n\nSpeaking in front of MPs about video game addiction today, Canon Pence - who works for Epic Games - said they were \"quite taken aback\" by Prince Harry's comments.\n\n\"The statements made could not be further from the truth in our designs and philosophy and multi-decade approach to developing a long-term and sustainable relationship with our audience,\" he added.\n\nMr Pence's comments were made at a Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) Committee meeting.\n\nEpic Games' Canon Pence and Matthew Weissinger were questioned alongside Shaun Campbell and Kerry Hopkins from Electronic Arts, who make games like Fifa and Battlefield.\n\nBoth games companies were questioned as the government is currently looking into how harmful social media and online gaming can be for young people - its safety plans are known as the Online Harms White Paper.\n\nGoogle, Instagram and YouTube have already given evidence to the committee about the effects of social media.\n\nSome of the questions at the DCMS meeting focused on whether games makers should offer a duty of care to players to ensure their welfare and whether there could be a better way to verify the ages of players.\n\nMatthew Weissinger, who is Epic's head of marketing, said Fortnite has \"a number of parental controls\" to stop young users from being exploited by spending lots of money on the game.\n\n\"We're not interested in maximising profit from our players, we want to have an open and honest relationship,\" he said, adding that the maximum someone could spend in their Battle Royale game was around $200 (£159).\n\nEA was asked by the committee about games addiction and how long users could spend playing things like Fifa.\n\nShaun Campbell, who is EA's UK manager, said he himself sometimes spent around half an hour a day playing, saying the game was designed \"to be engaging and fun to play\".\n\n\"We want players to take a healthy and balanced approach to playing games, just like anything else.\n\n\"If you look at Fifa players, they are competitive and some want a career in E-Sports so they practise and spend time playing the game. It's about what feels out of balance for an individual,\" he added.\n\nBoth game-makers were also asked how closely they looked at the age of their players and whether they collected data on that.\n\nPlayStation is the most popular platform for FIFA users in the UK, EA says\n\nKerry Hopkins, who runs EA's legal team, said it was the job of console makers like Sony to verify ages and was actually part of the sign-up process in creating an account.\n\n\"You can't create a PlayStation account if you are under 18. A parent has to set parental controls,\" she said.\n\n\"They can make choices about the time spent playing games and how much money is spent.\"\n\nCanon Pence agreed saying: \"It's our intention to collect the minimum amount of player data - Sony already has that account information\".\n\nListen to Newsbeat live at 12:45 and 17:45 weekdays - or listen back here.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Alex was diagnosed with autism when he was two years old\n\nMore than 1,500 children with special educational needs and disabilities (Send) are without a school place in England, with some waiting up to two years for provision.\n\nThe figures, collated by Newsnight, cover 46 English councils (25%), which suggests the real figure may be higher.\n\nOne mother told the programme her son had been \"squeezed out\" of school as a \"quick cost-cutting solution\".\n\nThe government said responsibility lay with local authorities.\n\nLocal authorities do not routinely publish data but a series of Freedom of Information requests made over the past six months show 1,580 children with education and health care plans (EHCPs), which used to be called statements of special educational needs, have no education provision.\n\nThe highest numbers came from Kent (348) and Surrey (93).\n\nAlex Palmer, six, who has autism, has not had a school place for two years, having been excluded just weeks after starting at a mainstream school in 2017.\n\n\"It just became too overwhelming for Alex and within five days of being at school full time, I had that that phone call that I knew was coming... there's issues and that ultimately your son is facing exclusion,\" his mother, Rachel, said.\n\n\"Alex shut down completely. He used to write his name and draw and paint and then following how emotionally traumatic he felt that experience was… he wouldn't hold a pencil, he wouldn't write\".\n\nAnd children such as Alex could be just the tip of the iceberg. They are the ones who have an EHCP - but not all children with Send do.\n\nLast year, there were more than 285,000 children with EHCPs in England - but the number of Send children is higher.\n\nParents can spend months, or even years, trying to get their child assessed for an EHCP and in the meantime there is no statutory requirement for local authorities to keep a register of these children.\n\nIn Birmingham, where Alex and Rachel live, a Freedom of Information request revealed 66 children with EHCPs were without education provision- but sources told the BBC's Newsnight programme there were actually about 250 Send children waiting for a school place. Birmingham Council said it did not \"recognise\" this latter figure.\n\nThe Children's Commissioner for England, Anne Longfield, was not surprised by the numbers across England.\n\n\"They reaffirm my concern that this is actually really widespread and there's a lot of children in this situation… lots of children and parents I've met who are spending 18 months, two years looking for that right school, or pinballing between applications to different schools,\" she said.\n\nSend provision is split between specialist and mainstream schools.\n\nEarlier this year, the government announced an additional £250m to support high needs and an extra £100m for new special school places - but the Institute for Fiscal Studies estimates the funding gap for Send education will hit £1.6bn by 2021.\n\nCharlotte Stubbs, the head teacher at Uffculme Special School, in Birmingham, which supports children on the autistic spectrum, said: \"This year, we had 19 spaces available for September 2019 [in Year 7] - we had 86 requests for placement.\n\n\"In our primary provision, specifically at Years 1 and 2, the class sizes are about seven or eight pupils per class size.\n\n\"We've had 130 referrals for primary placements this year and we're full\".\n\nSend places at mainstream schools are also coming under pressure.\n\nThe first £6,000 of support for a Send child has to come from the school's core budget and, put simply, pupils who need specialist help typically cost more than the funding they bring in.\n\nAaron, 10, says he likes being in a mainstream school\n\nSchools such as Kings Heath Primary, in Birmingham, which has a high proportion of pupils with complex needs, have long subsidised Send support from other parts of the budget. But because of financial pressure, they may have to close places for pupils such as Aaron.\n\n\"We don't want this to happen,\" the 10-year-old told Newsnight. \"If this doesn't stop, then people will get split up from each other, friendships will be broken and I really don't want that to happen, because I like my school and what it's doing for me.\"\n\nThe Department for Education said EHCPs had meant more than a quarter of a million children with complex educational needs \"are receiving the tailored support they need to thrive\".\n\n\"We know that a number of children with EHC plans are waiting for a place in school, having moved to a new local authority area, or waiting for their first primary school place,\" a spokesman said.\n\n\"Local authorities are responsible for ensuring that there are sufficient school places for all children in their local area.\n\n\"We encourage local authorities and providers to work collaboratively so the right range of provision is available for children.\"\n\nYou can watch Newsnight on BBC Two weekdays at 22:30 or on iPlayer, subscribe to the programme on YouTube and follow it on Twitter.", "The Conservative leadership rivals have clashed in a live BBC TV debate.\n\nBoris Johnson, Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove, Sajid Javid and Rory Stewart had a lot to say about Brexit, and a bit about sheep farming.\n\nIt was a noisy, lively debate - here are five things that stood out.", "Do we live in a world governed by international law, or one where an individual state's interests hold sway?\n\nIf people are murdered as a result of a state's actions or by actions taken by individuals associated with that state, what recourse should there be?\n\nAnd does it matter if that state is a strategic ally – or a potential foe?\n\nThe reports from the Dutch-led investigation into the shooting down of a Malaysian airliner (MH17) over Ukraine and that of the special rapporteur appointed by the UN's Human Rights Council to investigate the unlawful death of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi, raise all these questions and more.\n\nThese are two very different documents.\n\nOne - the report on the death of the Saudi journalist in the country's consulate in Istanbul - is a document commissioned by a UN body, the Human Rights Council, and is an attempt by a specially appointed investigator to try to get to grips with the facts. It is – though hugely embarrassing and indeed critical of the Saudi authorities – not an indictment in a legal sense.\n\nThe other document, on the downing of flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine in July 2014 with the deaths of 298 people, has the status of a legal inquiry.\n\nIt has sought to develop a case strong enough to be put to a court of law.\n\nFour suspects have been identified and named: three Russian nationals and a Ukrainian. Their trial is to begin in a Dutch court in March of next year, where they will face murder charges. They are held to be responsible for transporting the Russian BUK surface-to-air missile system responsible for shooting down the airliner.\n\nIn one sense, the publication of today's two reports in part confirms what we already know.\n\nThe charge is that senior members of the Saudi ruling elite, stretching up to the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman himself, hatched and then had carried, out a plot to lure Mr Khashoggi into the Saudi consulate and brutally murder him there.\n\nIn Ukraine, separatist groups - whose security forces were closely allied to those of Russia - are accused of employing a Russian-supplied air defence missile to shoot down the airliner.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Investigators say the suspects will be charged with causing the crash and murder\n\nBut what these new documents do is ensure that neither controversy is going to go away – and this will have consequences, not least of which is further complicating relations between the West and Moscow on the one hand, and with Riyadh on the other.\n\nBoth episodes have already prompted some action.\n\nThe US and many of its allies applied economic sanctions against Russia because of the MH17 incident. And sanctions have also been imposed against a number of named individuals in Saudi Arabia thought to be implicated in the plot against Mr Khashoggi.\n\nThe dilemmas in the Saudi case are the most pressing. Saudi Arabia is, after all, a key ally of the West.\n\nThe revival of the Khashoggi saga comes at a time of mounting tensions with Iran in the Gulf and also when Saudi Arabia's military's role in the Yemen conflict is once again under scrutiny.\n\nThere is already a tussle between the US Congress and the administration about future arms sales to the kingdom and British weapons sales are also currently under judicial review.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Jamal Khashoggi: What we know about the journalist's disappearance and death\n\nSaudi Arabia has insisted that Mr Khashoggi's murderers were not acting on the Crown Prince's orders. And Britain, for example, has so far rejected any direct sanctions against him.\n\nBut it is the debate in Washington that matters most. The initial murder prompted a fundamental debate about the relationship between the two countries which is far from resolved.\n\nPresident Trump himself has revelled in US-Saudi ties, not least their importance for the US arms industry. But at least one seasoned diplomat has taken a very different view; a reflection of the growing tone of sentiment on Capitol Hill.\n\nThe former State department official and Middle East negotiator Aaron David Miller noted recently that, in his view, Saudi Arabia isn't a strategic ally of the United States at all.\n\nIn a damning assessment, he said that \"at best it's an unreliable partner that episodically shares US interests and none of its values.\"\n\nRussia is clearly no friend of the West and has embarked upon a course of challenging western interests wherever possible. It is accused of intruding into national elections in several countries; the attempted murder of one of its former intelligence agents in Britain, which resulted in the death of a woman.\n\nIt too has long rejected the accusations made against it and its pro-Russian Ukrainian allies.\n\nA trial is only likely to make matters worse for the Kremlin, reviving the episode in every painful detail. And if the charges are proved, it could prompt calls for substantial further action against Moscow.\n\nNone of the individuals who face charges in the Dutch courts are likely ever to appear for their trial. It is even more unlikely that the Saudi Crown Prince will face an independent legal investigation.\n• None MH17 plane crash in Ukraine: What we know", "A man has been convicted of making a 3D printed gun - which was capable of firing a deadly shot.\n\nTendai Muswere, 26, from central London, initially told officers he was printing the firearm for a university project.\n\nHe pleaded guilty to manufacturing a firearm at Southwark Crown Court on Wednesday.\n\nThe Metropolitan Police says it believes it is the first conviction of its kind in the UK.\n\nPolice raided Muswere's home in Pimlico, Westminster, in October 2017 after getting a warrant to look for drugs.\n\nDuring the search, they found parts of a 3D printed gun - which Muswere - then a student - didn't have a firearms licence for.\n\nHe told officers he was printing the firearm for a university film project and he didn't know the parts he'd made were capable of firing.\n\nThis is the 3D gun Muswere made\n\nMuswere wouldn't tell police what his project was about.\n\nPolice found through searching his internet history that he had looked at videos which showed how to use a 3D printer to make guns that could fire ammunition.\n\nThey also discovered he had cannabis plants and there was evidence he was growing them.\n\nOfficers carried out a second raid on his home in February 2018 and found more parts of a 3D printed gun.\n\nActing Detective Sergeant Jonathan Roberts, who led the investigation, said: \"Muswere claimed that he was printing the firearms for a 'dystopian' university film project but he has not explained why he included the component parts necessary to make a lethal barrelled weapon.\n\n\"We know that Muswere was planning to line the printed firearms with steel tubes in order to make a barrel capable of firing.\n\n\"This conviction, which I believe is the first of its kind relating to the use of a 3D printer to produce a firearm, has prevented a viable gun from getting into the hands of criminals.\"\n\nMuswere will be sentenced on 9 August.\n\nListen to Newsbeat live at 12:45 and 17:45 weekdays - or listen back here.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nFour men are left in the race to be next prime minister after Rory Stewart was knocked out.\n\nThe international development secretary was eliminated after coming last with 27 votes, 10 fewer than last time.\n\nHe said his warnings about a no-deal Brexit \"probably proved to be truths people weren't quite ready to hear\".\n\nBoris Johnson topped the vote again with 143 votes, 17 more than last time.

not doing enough to ensure that venues are secure.\n\nNick Aldworth has warned new legislation is needed to reduce the impact of any future attack.\n\nHe is supporting a campaign for more rigorous checks at venues, under the name Martyn's Law, after Martyn Hett, a victim of the Manchester Arena attack.\n\nHe said such a law could have prevented the spate of attacks in the UK in 2017.\n\nAt the time, Mr Aldworth was a Metropolitan Police chief superintendent in charge of keeping Londoners safe.\n\n\"People died on my watch when I was responsible for trying to keep London and, more subsequently, the UK secure,\" he said.\n\n\"That's a burden that I will carry.\"\n\nHe said new legislation would help to stop that happening in the future.\n\n\"I think without it we have the potential for places to be attacked and for the potential for the effect of those attacks to be far worse than they need to be.\"\n\nAt the moment, venues such as theatres, cinemas, and concert halls do not have any legal obligation to put counter terrorism security in place, or to plan for what they would do in the event of an attack.\n\n\"I think that without being specific - because there are coroners' inquests under way at the moment - I think there are definitely some places that could have benefitted from some infrastructure,\" Mr Aldworth continued.\n\n\"But one of the things I was told after one of the attacks by a survivor... was she was in a restaurant and nobody knew what to do.\"\n\nMany places do have bag checks and security screening but Mr Aldworth said it was not the case everywhere, and that some venues were \"reckless and negligent\".\n\nFigen Murray launched a campaign in memory of her son\n\nShe wants it to be compulsory for every venue to assess the risk of an attack, and put appropriate measures in place.\n\nMrs Murray does not suggest there should be a security arch in front of every door, or that the country should become \"Barrier Britain\".\n\n\"When I think of people like Martyn who enjoyed music festivals and all these events without having to go through lots and lots of security, we're talking about common sense here,\" she said.\n\n\"It could just be people trained in recognising suspicious behaviour - it can be even as basic as that.\"\n\nMartyn Hett was one of 22 people killed in the attack on 22 May 2017\n\nMrs Murray already has the support of some venues that say they do not see extra legislation as a problem.\n\nShaun Hinds, chief executive of the Manchester Central Convention Centre, said: \"I'd actually flip it on its head and look at it as a business opportunity and say, 'Well, actually if we can demonstrate that we're putting the appropriate measures in place to ensure the security of the visitors, the venue, the employees, then actually that's got to be a good thing'.\"\n\nResponding to the calls for Martyn's Law, security minister Ben Wallace said: \"Going to concerts, exhibitions, shopping centres, watching sport and other events are part of the fabric of life, things that should be enjoyed without fear.\n\n\"Just as we share enjoyment of these communal places and spaces, we need to share concern and responsibility for keeping them as safe as possible.\n\n\"That means owners, operators and public authorities stepping up and making full use of the wide range of information and advice available to support them.\n\n\"Government is also considering whether and how further legislation could support, or indeed compel, effective and proportionate protective security.\n\n\"We

should be mandatory not discretionary.\"\n\nMr Burnham said Manchester was ready to be the first city to endorse the new legislation and become a pilot area.\n\nAt the event, attended by Mrs Murray

security measures at public venues.", "Scots bought less alcohol in 2018 than any year since records began in the early 1990s, according to a new report.\n\nAnalysis by NHS Health Scotland found Scottish adults still bought more alcohol than people in England and Wales on average but the gap narrowed.\n\nA minimum price per unit of alcohol was introduced on 1 May last year in a bid to tackle Scotland's drink culture.\n\nThe authors of the report said it was not possible to quantify the impact but \"early indicators were encouraging\".\n\nScotland was the first country in the world to introduce minimum unit pricing (MUP), although others places operate different forms of price control.\n\nMinimum pricing was largely aimed at raising the cost of cheap lager, cider and spirits sold in supermarkets and off-licences to reduce consumption.\n\nThe 2019 MESAS (Monitoring and Evaluating Scotland's Alcohol Strategy) report said:\n\nThe report said alcohol continued to be a leading cause of illness and early death in Scotland, with an average of 22 people dying of alcohol-related illness every week.\n\nThe Scottish government brought in minimum unit pricing to target the price of cheap, high-strength alcohol, which it said attracted problem drinkers.\n\nThe new law looked at the amount of alcohol in a drink and set a minimum price of 50p for each unit.\n\nUnder the rules, a 70cl bottle of vodka, at a strength of 37.5% abv, would be 26.25 units and cost £13.13.\n\nLucie Giles, public health intelligence adviser at NHS Health Scotland, said the minimum pricing law led to the biggest rise in the average price of alcohol for a decade and a \"substantial\" fall in the volume of alcohol sold at very low prices.\n\nFor the first time, less alcohol was sold below 50p per unit in Scotland than south of the border.\n\nFollowing Scotland's introduction of the policy, members of the Welsh Assembly passed legislation to introduce a minimum price for alcohol - the plans are yet to be implemented.\n\nSimilar legislation has been considered for England but is not currently on the table.\n\nMs Giles said: \"From the data in this report it's not possible to quantify the full contribution of MUP (minimum unit pricing) on alcohol prices and sales, but these are encouraging early indicators.\"\n\nShe said alcohol was still a \"significant public health issue\" and people in Scotland's poorest areas continued to experience the most harm.\n\nCheap supermarket vodka was one of the drinks most affected by the minimum pricing\n\nShopkeepers say they have seen a shift in the type of drinks people are buying and doctors say that is reflected on the wards.\n\nThe official figures show a fall in sales but no real change in what we are choosing to drink.\n\nIt is a small percentage of people who are the most problematic drinkers, a significant proportion of those live in poverty.\n\nMost who work in this area say there needs to be a much wider package of support to really address the country's unhealthy relationship with alcohol.\n\nOne man I spoke to said minimum pricing will make no difference for this group. \"If they can't afford it, they'll steal it\" he said.\n\nWe have been seeing a steady decline in alcohol sales over the past decade or so, hence the optimism today, but not a rush to claim success.\n\nThe truth is, it is too early to tell whether minimum pricing is having an impact on Scotland's health.\n\nNo other country in the world has tried it so a full analysis will take years to complete.\n\nThe MESAS report looks at alcohol sales for 2018 but data on harm caused by drinking was for the previous year, before minimum pricing was introduced.\n\nIt shows that alcohol-specific death rates were consistently higher in Scotland than in England and Wales.\n\nIn 2017, rates were twice as high in men and 55% higher in women.\n\nIn the most deprived areas, rates of alcohol-specific death were more than seven times higher than in the least deprived.\n\nDr Ewan Forrest, a liver specialist at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, told BBC Scotland it was \"probably too early to say\" if there had been a reduction in alcohol harm.\n\n\"We are still seeing a lot of alcohol-related liver disease so I'm not thinking the measures taken have solved the problem but I'm hoping they have moved us in the right direction,\" he said.\n\nLiver disease specialist Dr Ewan Forrest said he thought minimum pricing was a move in the right direction\n\nDr Forrest said he hoped to see a reduction in alcohol-related liver deaths over the next five years.\n\nHe said: \"By reducing the overall consumption of alcohol and pushing some people towards stopping alcohol I hope we can prevent people who have liver disease developing full-blown liver failure.\"\n\nIn response to the MESAS report, BMA Scotland chair Dr Lewis Morrison said minimum pricing was \"still very much in its infancy\" but the results from the first year were \"extremely encouraging\".\n\nAlison Douglas, from Alcohol Focus Scotland, said the figures suggested the policy was \"having a real impact on the way we drink in Scotland\".\n\nThe Scottish government's Health Secretary Jeane Freeman said it was a \"promising start\" and the fall in sales was \"moving in the right direction\".\n\nThe MESAS report shows that while Scots buy more alcohol in pubs than people in England and Wales, it is off-licences and supermarkets where the biggest difference lies.\n\nThe rates of sales of spirits from off-licences were 37% higher in Scotland than in England and Wales, with sales of vodka per adult being 87% higher.\n\nSince 1994 off-trade sales in Scotland have increased by 36% while sales in pubs, clubs and restaurants have fallen by 44%.\n\nAbdul Majid, who runs a small supermarket in Bellshill, North Lanarkshire, said his turnover had not been affected by the minimum pricing rules but his customers had changed what they bought.\n\nAbdul Majid said high-strength ciders had been most affected by minimum pricing\n\nHe said they had moved away from high-strength (7.5% abv) ciders, which used to cost as little as £4 for three litres but could not now be sold for less than £11.25.\n\nMr Majid said people were buying more alcopops or small bottles of spirits such as vodka.\n\nHe said people had not understood the new law when it was first introduced.\n\n\"They know now that it is a minimum unit price so no matter which retailer they go to the minimum price doesn't change.\n\n\"It means that my prices and the bigger supermarket prices are now on a level playing field.\"\n\nAccording to Mr Majid, another consequence of the price rise has been a sharp rise in shoplifting.\n\n\"We are always really surprised at the people we catch,\" he said. \"It's not always who you would expect.\"", "An Australian detective was forced to take action after an unexpected interruption to a press conference by a man who had allegedly made

they have identified the earliest signs of Parkinson's disease in the brain, 15 to 20 years before symptoms appear.\n\nScans of a small number of high-risk patients found malfunctions in the brain's serotonin system, which controls mood, sleep and movement.\n\nThe King's College London researchers say the discovery could lead to new screening tools and treatments.\n\nExperts said larger studies and more affordable scans were needed first.\n\nParkinson's is a progressive neurological condition affecting about 145,000 people in the UK.\n\nThe main symptoms are shaking, tremors and stiffness but depression, memory and sleep problems are also common.\n\nTraditionally, the disease is thought to be linked to a chemical called dopamine, which is lacking in the brains of people with the condition.\n\nAlthough there is no cure, treatments do exist to control symptoms - and they focus on restoring dopamine levels.\n\nBut the KCL research team, writing in Lancet Neurology, suggest that changes in the brain's serotonin levels come first - and could act as an early warning sign.\n\nThe researchers looked at the brains of 14 people from remote villages in southern Greece and Italy who all have rare mutations in the SNCA gene, making them almost certain to develop the disease.\n\nHalf of this group had already been diagnosed with Parkinson's and half had not yet shown any symptoms, making them ideal for studying how the disease develops.\n\nBy comparing their brains with another 65 patients with Parkinson's and 25 healthy volunteers, the researchers were able to pinpoint early brain changes in patients in their 20s and 30s.\n\nThese were found in the serotonin system, a chemical which has many functions in the brain, including mood, appetite, cognition, wellbeing and movement.\n\nLead study author Prof Marios Politis, from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King's, said the abnormalities had been found long before movement problems had begun and before dopamine levels had changed.\n\n\"Our results suggest that early detection of changes in the serotonin system could open doors to the development of new therapies to slow, and ultimately prevent, progression of Parkinson's disease,\" he said.\n\nProf Derek Hill, professor of medical imaging at University College London, said the research provided some valuable insights but also had some limitations.\n\n\"Their results may not scale up to larger studies,\" he said.\n\n\"Secondly, the imaging method they used is highly specialised and limited to a very small number of research centres, so isn't yet usable either to help diagnose patients or even to evaluate novel treatments in large clinical studies.\n\n\"The research does, however, provide encouragement for the approach of trying to treat Parkinson's disease at the earliest possible stage, which is likely to be the best chance of preventing the rising number of people whose lives are destroyed by this hideous disease.\"\n\nDr Beckie Port, research manager at charity Parkinson's UK, said: \"Further research is needed to fully understand the importance of this discovery - but if it is able to unlock a tool to measure and monitor how Parkinson's develops, it could change countless lives.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Head teachers in England are more likely to face problems with pupils bullying online and misusing social media than in any other developed country, an international study says.\n\nA report from the OECD think tank reported the experiences of more than 250,000 teachers in 48 industrialised countries and regions.\n\nIt showed particular problems with cyber-bullying in England's schools.\n\n\"It's the dark side of the modern age,\" said the OECD's Andreas Schleicher.\n\nThe OECD's education director called for more regulation of social media, rather than leaving individual heads to try to cope.\n\nThe study, from the economics think tank the Teaching and Learning International Survey, looked at the working lives of teachers around the world, with England participating but not Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.\n\nThe survey, carried out every five years, indicated an increase in bullying in England's schools - driven by online bullying and harassment and problems caused by social media.\n\nOf the heads in England surveyed:\n\n\"It's clearly about social media,\" said Mr Schleicher.\n\nIn France, mobile phones have been banned from school - and the OECD education expert said education systems had to find a way of dealing with the impact of social media and internet use on young people.\n\nHe warned of a lack of regulation in England, which left schools having to find their own response.\n\n\"I don't think it's something we can ignore and let individual schools sort out,\" he said.\n\nApart from the emotional harm of bullying, he said, the misuse of social media was \"hindering learning\" and needed to be addressed at a wider level.\n\nThe survey also indicated that England faced a significant problem with a shortage of teachers.\n\nHead teachers in England were much more likely to report their biggest problem was a lack of qualified teachers.\n\nMr Schleicher said this was \"way above\" what was typical of other developed countries - and that England was \"pretty much on its own\" with the scale of worries about a lack of teachers.\n\nImproving recruitment, he said, was not just about pay, but would depend on making teaching more \"intellectually attractive\", with enough time for professional development and research and to \"create a job profile that is a true professional career\".\n\nThe survey indicated teachers in England worked among the longest hours of any developed countries, with 50 hours per week.\n\nBut much of this seemed to be administration or other work outside the classroom, as in terms of teaching hours, England was below average.\n\nJames Zuccollo, of the Education Policy Institute, said these \"stark findings\" showed that \"in spite of the government's efforts over the last few years, there has been no reduction in teachers' workload\".\n\nMary Bousted, joint general secretary of the National Education Union, said the findings should be a \"wake-up call\".\n\n\"The government must end teachers' unsustainable workload by tackling the high-stakes school accountability system which is fuelling the long-hours culture and driving teachers out of the profession,\" said Ms Bousted.\n\nPaul Whiteman, leader of the National Association of Head Teachers, said: \"Teachers are graduates who have many career choices open to them.\n\n\"We have to treat them well and respect their need for a work-life balance, if we expect them to stay.\"\n\nEducation Secretary Damian Hinds said: \"We know that too many teachers are having to work too many hours each week on unnecessary tasks, which is why I have taken on a battle to reduce teachers' workload so that they can focus on spending their time in the classroom doing what they do best - teaching.\"", "Climate scientist Steffen Olsen took this picture while travelling across melted sea ice in north-west Greenland\n\nWith their sled in tow, a pack of dogs trudge towards a distant mountain range in north-west Greenland.\n\nThe stunning picture may seem typical enough of the Danish territory. What's beneath their feet - a shallow pool of crystal-blue water - is anything but.\n\nLast week, however, temperatures soared well above normal levels in Greenland, causing about half of its ice sheet surface to experience melting.\n\nAnd the sea ice around the territory is, of course, also feeling this heat.\n\nSteffen Olsen, a climate scientist at the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), took the photo on 13 June as these warming conditions reached their peak.\n\nMr Olsen and his team were retrieving equipment from a weather station in the Inglefield Fjord area. As they walked across the 1.2m (4ft) thick sea ice, water pooled on the surface.\n\nOn Twitter, his colleague at DMI Rasmus Tonboe later shared the image, telling followers \"rapid melt\" had occurred.\n\nBecause the sea ice is compact with almost no cracks, the image gives the impression the dogs are walking on water, Martin Stendel, senior researcher at the institute, told the BBC.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

Temperatures, according to the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasting, were around 22C above normal the day before. In the village of Qaanaaq, a high of 17.3C was recorded.\n\nSince then, Mr Olsen's photo has been shared widely on social media, provoking concern at the extent of the melting event and its causes.\n\nGreenland's ice sheet melts annually, with the season usually lasting from June to August. The summer months - typically in July - are when it reaches its height. This year, however, climate experts say it is early.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

He said the same two factors were thought to have caused last week's ice melt and the historic event of 2012.\n\nOne is high pressure lodged over Greenland, creating warm and sunny conditions. The other is low cloud cover and snowfall, meaning solar radiation can strike the ice sheet surface.\n\nGlobal warming, Mr Colgan said, was \"tremendously important\" to these sorts of events.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Watch: Huge iceberg breaks apart near a village in western Greenland\n\nA small fishing boat heads out into the sea ice near the town of Uummannaq in western Greenland\n\n\"What climate change is doing is increasingly loading the dice to set up weather conditions that can tip the ice sheets into these mass loss events,\" he said.\n\nIf these trends continued, said Professor Edward Hanna, a climate scientist at the University of Lincoln, Greenland could experience a record melt this year.\n\n\"The thing is, with climate trends, as we've seen over the past 20 years, as it gets warmer and warmer over Greenland, you don't need that much of an exceptional event to melt the whole surface of the ice,\" he told the BBC.\n\nThe consequences, he said, would not only be felt locally but globally, too.\n\nTemperatures were around 22C above normal in Greenland last week, data shows\n\nAs sea ice disappears, local communities who rely on it for transport, hunting and fishing are expected to suffer. On a global level, Prof Hanna said \"sea level rise is the big one\".\n\n\"You're losing something like 250 billion tonnes of ice a year on average. A huge mass is being transferred from the land into the oceans,\" he said.\n\nMr Colgan said we should be mindful that the melt on 13 June was just \"a one-day event that is surprising in its magnitude and its early onset\".\n\nAs studies showed, he said, global warming could mean more extreme melting events were yet to come.\n\n\"We can expect to see more of these in the future,\" he said.", "Emiliano Sala had just signed with Cardiff City\n\nA man has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over the death of Argentine footballer Emiliano Sala who died in a plane crash.\n\nThe striker, who had signed with Cardiff City, was killed in the crash along with pilot David Ibbotson.\n\nA 64-year-old man from North Yorkshire had been arrested and released while investigations continue, a spokesperson for Dorset Police said.\n\nThe force added the families of the two men who died had been informed.\n\nMr Sala, 28, had been travelling from Nantes to Cardiff on 21 January when the plane he was in lost contact with air traffic control north of Guernsey.\n\nHis body was recovered in February but Mr Ibbotson's has never been found.\n\nEmiliano Sala (left) was heading to his new club, Cardiff City, on board a plane being flown by David Ibbotson\n\nMr Sala's body was brought to Portland and Dorset Police has been carrying out inquiries on behalf of the coroner.\n\nDet Insp Simon Huxter, of the force's Major Crime Investigation Team, said: \"As part of this investigation we have to consider whether there is any evidence of any suspected criminality and as a result of our inquiries we have today, Wednesday 19 June 2019, arrested a 64-year-old man from the North Yorkshire area on suspicion of manslaughter by an unlawful act.\n\n\"He is assisting with our inquiries and has been released from custody under investigation.\"\n\nAn air accident investigator's photo showed the rear left side of the fuselage on the seabed\n\nDet Insp Huxter urged people not to speculate about the identity of the man as it could hinder the investigation.\n\nThe Piper Malibu aircraft was carrying Mr Sala and Mr Ibbotson, from Crowle, Lincolnshire, after the footballer returned to FC Nantes to say goodbye to his former teammates.\n\nAn official search operation was called off on 24 January after Guernsey's harbour master said the chances of survival were \"extremely remote\".\n\nShipwreck hunter David Mearns found the plane wreckage on 3 February, 220ft (67m) below the surface of the English Channel, using sonar financed by an appeal that raised £340,000 (371,000 euros) to find the aircraft.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Tory MPs have voted in another round of the leadership contest, with the man who comes last set to be eliminated.\n\nResults of the secret ballot are expected soon after 18:00 BST and surviving candidates will face further votes until only two are left.\n\nConservative Party members will then be able to vote on the final two, with the winner becoming party leader and PM.\n\nDominic Raab, who was knocked out on Tuesday, has backed leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson.\n\nHours before the third ballot opened, Rory Stewart said he was in talks with his rival Michael Gove about \"combining forces\".\n\nSources close to Mr Stewart said: \"Clearly at some time people will need to combine teams.

And if they can't, what are their contingency plans?\n\nBBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg asked the remaining leadership candidates to outline their Brexit proposals.\n\nThe catch? To answer the questions in 50 words or less.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nFirst, I'll negotiate a full stop to the backstop - a guarantee it can never be permanent.\n\nSecond, I'll secure a Union Guarantee in international law so that our United Kingdom cannot be undermined.\n\nThird, I'll secure a Canada-style Free Trade Agreement which takes back control of our laws, borders and money.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nI would involve Conservative MPs in shaping our negotiating stance and install a negotiating team led by politicians.\n\nMy Union Guarantee will help me secure the support of the DUP.\n\nI also have a track record working across political divides, and would work with opposition MPs committed to Brexit.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI want to deliver Brexit as soon as possible and before 31 October.\n\nHowever, I have said that if it will take a few more days or weeks to finalise a deal, I would be prepared to contemplate a short delay.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nI will always choose Brexit over no Brexit. So if it ultimately came to a choice, I would choose no deal over no Brexit. I led the Vote Leave campaign. I am determined to finish what I started and ensure we leave the EU.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nThis is a false choice. We need to honour the referendum and deliver Brexit before there is an election.\n\nWe must not blunder into a confidence vote which we could lose. I am categorically opposed to a second referendum, which is only advocated for by people who want to remain.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nWe are not pretending it's going to be easy but the EU doesn't want no deal and there is a deal to be done if the right team is sent to negotiate it.\n\nI will present Brussels with a credible plan and a new negotiating team so they have confidence it can get through Parliament.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nWe have to deal with the biggest issue Parliament has which is the backstop that could leave the UK permanently trapped in the customs union against its will.\n\nChanging the deal to address this concern, while maintaining support from across the Conservative Party and DUP, will get Brexit delivered.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI have always believed that if the only way to deliver Brexit was through no deal, then I would pursue that.\n\nBut I would not pursue no deal, with all the risks it involves, if there was the chance of a good deal.\n\nWhat I would not do is set a hard stop on 31 October by which we would be forced into no deal, even if it meant an election and Jeremy Corbyn in No 10.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nI started my own business and negotiated for every day of my professional life - I am wholly focused on making sure it succeeds.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nWe have to give the country better choices than these, and as an experienced negotiator who understands European leaders, I am best placed to do that.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nWe don't want another referendum, but if there was one I would vote to leave. The people have decided and the democratic risk of not delivering their decision is colossal. We have to get on with it and that's exactly what I would do.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nWe need to focus on the one thing that's needed to get a deal through Parliament: alternative arrangements to the backstop.\n\nAnd we need to work with Ireland - the key player in this - to deliver those arrangements, beginning with a bold offer to pick up their costs for technological solutions.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nParliament has already voted for the current withdrawal agreement with changes to the backstop. That's why it's what I'd focus on securing with the EU.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nWe need to leave the EU on 31 October. I am confident we can agree a deal - and Parliament will support what it has already voted for in the past.\n\nBut if it comes to a choice between no deal, and no Brexit, I would have to back no deal.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nNo deal is the default if Parliament cannot agree a deal - and I would make sure we are fully prepared for it.\n\nBut we have to be honest about what the choice is. We cannot accept no Brexit as an outcome.\n\nSo either we agree a deal, or leave without one on 31 October.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nWe can't reduce this debate to false choices. We've asked the public too many times already for their views on Brexit.\n\nOnce should have been enough. They want us to get on with it now. Asking yet again would risk irreparable damage to trust in our democracy.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nI've been clear we need to get on with Brexit - no second referendum.\n\nThe people delivered a clear instruction to the British people, and as I said at the time it is our job as elected politicians to deliver it, however we voted at the time.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nIt's clear that the prime minister's deal is dead - having been rejected by Parliament three times.\n\nWe should have come out by March and both of the main political parties are paying the price for failing to do so. We now need to make sure we come out on 31 October, come what may, and we need to show that we are serious about leaving with no deal.\n\nTo be clear, I don't want no deal, but it's only by being serious you can be confident of getting a new, better deal.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nParliament has already made clear that it is willing to vote for a better deal, and last week made clear that it wasn't willing to take no deal off the table.\n\nI am confident that, so long as we can address MPs' concerns with the old withdrawal agreement, we can strike a new deal that Parliament will want to vote for.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI am not planning for failure. Politics has changed since 29 March, and I believe that MPs now realise they need to deliver on the result of the referendum, or risk a devastating breach in public confidence in our politics.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nAgain, I am not planning for failure. We must deliver on the democratic wishes of the British people.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nNeither. It's clear that the public doesn't want to us to force them to vote again.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nLeave, but there isn't going to be another referendum if I become prime minister.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nI would not negotiate a new deal with the EU. I would take through the deal we have already got.\n\nPretending that we can get a different deal out of Brussels is simply a recipe for more uncertainty and delay.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nAll deals have to go through Parliament. The current deal has 270 votes. We need 45 more.\n\nThe European Elections are an electric shock which will make MPs determined to get Brexit done. There is only one door - Parliament. And one key - getting a majority.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nMy plan B would be a Brexit Assembly. It worked in Ireland to resolve the impasse on abortion.\n\nWhile Parliament will always remain sovereign, the Assembly would present a clear recommendation on the best way forward to break the deadlock.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nIn the end I - like everyone else - would have to return to getting a deal through Parliament. Parliament is sovereign.

made with reclaimed plastics - which was unveiled this week.\n\nThe 22-year-old's view is not surprising, given the millions of low cost, fast fashion clothes that Boohoo sells every year.\n\nBut while it's easy to dismiss the move as a marketing gimmick, Boohoo claims it is planning other green initiatives, and others have welcomed the new collection as a \"starting point\".\n\n\"It is good for people to try recycled clothes and see that they are just like normal clothes,\" says shopper Esme, 16.\n\n\"I'm glad they are engaging because they are unlikely to change their supply chain overnight,\" adds Dr Patsy Perry, senior lecturer in fashion marketing at the University of Manchester.\n\nBoohoo says its 34-piece range is made with recycled polyester that had been destined for landfills and uses no environmentally unfriendly dyes or chemicals.\n\nThe dresses, bodysuits, flares and crop tops have also been made entirely in the UK to cut air pollution.\n\nZara is one of a growing number of retailers to launch recycled collections\n\nHowever, some have noted that the range was unveiled on the same day the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC) issued a critical report on the fast fashion industry that mentioned Boohoo.\n\nThe MPs warned companies were creating huge amounts of waste by selling cheap clothes designed only to be worn a few times.\n\nThey also said the synthetic fabrics used to make such garments shed micro-fibres when washed, polluting waterways.\n\n\"The problem of clothing waste driven by rising volumes and lower prices in recent years are unlikely to be addressed by initiatives [like Boohoo's recycled range],\" says Stella Claxton of Nottingham Trent University, who gave evidence to the EAC.\n\n\"We know that too many garments that are disposed of through retailer take-back schemes or in charity collection bins will eventually find their way into landfill.\"\n\nShe also questions just how green Boohoo's recycled fabric will be, noting that even recycled polyester clothing can take hundreds of years to decompose.\n\n\"The garments are likely to shed microfibres into waterways when they're machine washed, just like the non recycled versions,\" she adds.\n\nIn its report, the EAC made 18 proposals, including a 1p charge per garment on producers to fund better recycling of clothes, and a ban on incinerating or landfilling unsold stock that can be recycled instead.\n\nBut the government has said already it will adopt none of the policies.\n\nIn that light, Dr Perry thinks Boohoo - and others retailers that have launched green clothing ranges - should be encouraged for doing so voluntarily.\n\n\"The real test will be if Boohoo can make this financially viable,\" she says.\n\n\"Because if they don't carry on then it will seem like a token gesture and them getting on the bandwagon.\"\n\nBoohoo says it takes its environmental responsibilities \"extremely seriously\" and is encouraging its customers to wear its clothes for longer.\n\n\"We have also launched a further consumer awareness programme around washing at lower temperatures, and avoiding ironing and tumble drying where possible.\"", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nScotland are out of the Women's World Cup after a twice-taken added-time penalty gave Argentina a dramatic draw.\n\nThe Scots needed to win and Kim Little turned in their opener with Jen Beattie and Erin Cuthbert netting from corners.\n\nIt was 3-2 after Milagros Menendez scored and a Florencia Bonsegundo shot went in via the bar and Lee Alexander.\n\nA VAR-awarded spot-kick taken by Bonsegundo was saved by Alexander but she was off her line and, agonisingly, the striker scored second time around.\n\nWith 16 minutes to play, Shelley Kerr's Scots were on course to be one of the four best third-placed sides going into Thursday's final fixtures in Groups E and F but Argentina's recovery consigned the Scots to bottom place in Group D.\n\nAnd Scotland captain Rachel Corsie was unhappy that referee Hyang-ok Ri allowed an Argentina free-kick to be taken while substitute Fiona Brown was coming on, with another substitute, Sophie Howard, ultimately penalised for her challenge on Aldana Cometti.\n• None Who did you vote player of the match?\n\nFor the third match running, Scotland conceded a penalty that cost them points.\n\nTheir opening two defeats by England and Japan had followed a similar pattern - two goals down including a spot-kick by half-time and a late rally producing a consolation goal.\n\nThe players and Kerr had spoken of the need to start the game on the front foot and that intent was clear as Cuthbert volleyed wide in the first minute.\n\nScotland's play was less nervous than it had been in the first two games but they were dealt a real scare when Mariana Larroquette headed against the crossbar from Bonsegundo's cross and Alexander had be alert to block Sole Jaimes' shot in the aftermath.\n\nThe Scots' response was brave, bold and ultimately rewarded. Cuthbert forced her way through the Argentina defence to shoot from the inside left channel and though Vanina Correa saved, Cuthbert had the presence of mind to turn the ball back for the outstretched foot of Little to touch home her 54th international strike.\n\nThe goal had come at a good time, just as Argentina were growing into the game, and the second prevented Carlos Borrello's side building any momentum at the start of the second period.\n\nCaroline Weir's initial delivery from a corner was poor but the ball was recycled and the Manchester City midfielder floated the ball perfectly on to the head of Arsenal-bound Beattie, who found the net for a 23rd time on Scotland duty.\n\nThe Scots were not content to sit on their lead and Cuthbert was not prepared to give Argentina's backline a minute's peace, forcing Correa to turn wide after another driving run.\n\nAnd the Chelsea forward got the goal her performance deserved when she tucked in the rebound after Correa had turned Leanne Crichton's header on to the post.\n\nHowever, the turning point came when Dalila Ippolito fed fellow substitute Menendez to finish calmly past Alexander before Bonsegundo's shot hit the bar and evaded the Scotland goalkeeper over the line.\n\nWith stoppage time came more twists and turns and a cruel end for Scotland.\n\nHoward tripped Cometti and the referee was advised to view the incident again. She pointed to the spot and Bonsegundo's shot was blocked by Alexander.\n\nBut VAR was called into play again with Alexander judged not to have had at least one foot touching the goalline when the kick was taken and Bonsegundo fired in the retake.\n\nThe match had already surpassed the suggested four minutes of added time and finished with a whimper with the players initially not realising the final whistle had blown as the assistant referees came on the to pitch.\n\nFormer Scotland goalkeeper Gemma Fay on BBC Four\n\nIt has to be heartbreaking. As a goalkeeper, you take your cues from the body of the striker - the way in which they plant their foot beside the ball and if they open their hips or if they don't open their hips tells you where they're going to go.\n\nLee has trained for 27 years in that way and now at a World Cup we're saying, 'no, you can't train that way, you have to train a completely different way'.

In Wales, prices of all types of property are going up, but rises are slowest among flats and maisonettes.\n\nFirst-time buyers want to buy a home to live in for longer than their predecessors, according to Richard Donnell, insight director at Zoopla. This meant they were more likely to push themselves to buy something bigger and wanted to \"leapfrog\" flats, he said.\n\nHe said that the fall in demand from investors, many of whom have pulled out of the market, had affected demand for flats. Primarily the slowdown in the market in London and the South East of England had meant lower demand for flats, as there was a heavy concentration of apartments in the capital.\n\nMajor housing projects from the old Battersea Power Station in London to plans for the Metalworks in Liverpool suggest that developers still see plenty of demand for city flats.\n\nThe overall trend suggests that apartments are becoming more affordable.\n\nResearch for online estate agents Housesimple suggests buyers can purchase a flat for less than £80,000 in 17 towns and cities in the UK.\n\nBased on Land Registry figures, it said the average flat in Burnley was the cheapest at £54,161, followed by Hartlepool (£57,659), Middlesbrough (£63,100), Durham (£63,638), Blackpool (£67,670), and Preston (£74,084).\n\nIn contrast, the average price of a flat in Kensington and Chelsea in London was more than £1m, and - despite house price falls - the cheapest London boroughs of Havering, Barking and Dagenham, and Bexley still saw the average cost of a flat totalling more than £230,000.\n\nIn general, Office for Statistics (ONS) figures showed UK property prices were continuing to rise but at a slower rate than a year ago.\n\nThe average UK house price was £229,000 in April, the data shows, which is £3,000 higher than the same period a year earlier.\n\nThe cost of renting a home has accelerated slightly, according to separate ONS figures.\n\nRental prices paid by tenants to private landlords went up by 1.3% in the UK in the 12 months to May.\n\nWhere can you afford to live?

This will, of course, depend on Parliament.\"\n\nDuring the Soviet Union, the positioning of politicians on podiums and the placing of articles in Pravda were seized on by Western observers to prove what might be going on behind the scenes. And a certain sort of Kremlinology is required trying to work out where Labour's Brexit plan is heading next.\n\nI make no comparison between Mr Corbyn's Labour's party and the USSR, of course. I only mean statements and interviews are picked apart by journalists looking for clues and signs of a shift.\n\nPro-referendum campaigners detect a small shift in Jeremy Corbyn's latest statement, saying a referendum on a deal should include options that satisfy Leave and Remain voters alike. Mr Corbyn's team insists he is only repeating what has been said before.\n\nWhat's clear is pressure within Labour is building. Those like Tom Watson in the shadow cabinet calling unequivocally for another public vote are competing with about two dozen Labour MPs representing Leave seats warning their leader another referendum would be a disaster.

the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe - and aimed to bring an end to World War Two.\n\nBy night-time, around 156,000 Allied troops had arrived in Normandy, despite challenging weather and fierce German defences.\n\nAt the end of D-Day, the Allies had established a foothold in France and within 11 months Nazi Germany was defeated.\n\nHere are 10 things you may not have known about the operation:\n\nAs early as 1942, the BBC launched a bogus appeal for photographs and postcards from the coast of Europe, from Norway to the Pyrenees.\n\nIt was actually a way of gathering intelligence on suitable landing beaches and Normandy was settled on.\n\nMillions of photos ended up being sent to the War Office and, with the help of the French Resistance and air reconnaissance, military bosses were able to target the best landing spots for D-Day.\n\nThe remains of the D-Day \"Mulberry\" artificial harbour at Arromanches, Normandy\n\nThe Allies put a lot of effort into trying to convince the Germans that the invasion was going to be near Calais, not Normandy.\n\nThey invented phantom field armies based in Kent as part of their D-Day deception plan, named Operation Fortitude.\n\nThey built dummy equipment - including inflatable tanks - parachuted dummies, used double agents and released controlled leaks of misinformation which led the Germans to believe the Allies were going to invade via the Pas-de-Calais and Norway.\n\nThe Germans took the bait so much that even after D-Day they held many of their best troops in the Calais area expecting a second invasion.\n\nBy 1944 more than two million troops from more than 12 countries were in Britain preparing for the invasion.\n\nOn D-Day, Allied forces consisted primarily of US, British and Canadian troops but also included Australian, Belgian, Czech, Dutch, French, Greek, New Zealand, Norwegian, Rhodesian [present-day Zimbabwe] and Polish naval, air and ground support.\n\nA French poster from WW2, the translation for which reads: All Together, for a Single Victory\n\nThe officers organising the operation were very particular about the timing of D-Day.\n\nThey wanted a full moon with a spring tide so they could land at dawn when the tide was about half way in -

he thought Germany would easily defeat the Allies.\n\nWhile America formed the biggest national contingent, the combined force of Commonwealth service personnel - mostly British and Canadian - was greater.\n\nOf the 156,000 men who landed in France on 6 June, 73,000 were American, and 83,000 British or Canadian.

The BBC's Emma Jane Kirby met a US veteran and two French civilians.\n\nWhat 96-year-old Jake Larson remembers most about D-Day is the feeling of exhaustion. Well, the exhaustion and his first taste of champagne.\n\n\"Let me tell you the story!\" he says from his home in California as we chat on the phone. \"You'll love this story!\"\n\nSeventy-five years on and Jake's vintage tales of war are still as effervescent and sparkling as the bubbly he used to knock back in Normandy. For 65, perhaps for 70 years, he refused to speak about his experiences on the French coast - when he left the US Army in 1945, he was demobbed with \"the shakes\", he says. But when he did allow the cork to pop, suppressed memories frothed and spilled over in Technicolor.\n\nJake had joined the National Guard in Minnesota aged 15. He'd lied about his age in the hope he'd get paid there and then - he'd only signed up because he'd wanted 10 cents for a cinema ticket to watch the latest Gene Autry film with his cousin. But national guardsmen were among the first to be conscripted into the US Army, and by 1944 Jake was a sergeant. When someone found out he could type, he was quickly shipped to the US Army's HQ in England to become a clerk, typing up the loading orders for the Normandy invasion plans of the US V Corps.\n\n\"Man, I was so tired!\" he remembers. \"No-one had slept on the 4th or 5th [of June] and the seas were so rough we were turning and turning and everyone was sick. But on 6 June, maybe around 06:30, it was time to go in and here we were landing at Omaha beach with the water up to our necks and machine-gun fire on all sides. It was a shooting gallery.\"\n\nThe sea, he says, was red with the blood of soldiers who had stepped on mines and he recalls having to push floating bodies out of his path to shore. After scrambling up the beach, he hid trembling behind a small sandbank and trying to calm his nerves with a cigarette, he asked the soldier crouched behind him for a match. When the man didn't reply, Jake nudged him and saw there was no head under the helmet.\n\nTime just evaporated that day, Jake reflects. He remembers setting up a command post by the cliffs, digging himself a foxhole to sleep in and by seven o'clock that night he was dropping with fatigue. That's when he was told by his commanding officer that he was to be in charge of the night shift.\n\nThe next morning - Jake's longed-for bedtime - the guns roared again and more tanks rolled up the beach.\n\n\"I couldn't sleep with that noise!\" he protests. \"I just couldn't sleep and man, I really needed to rest!\"\n\nIt was the locals who helped Jake out. As he stumbled away from the beach towards the village, French civilians rushed out to greet the liberators, hugging the soldiers and plying them with Normandy cheeses and other local fare.\n\n\"There was Camembert!\" delights Jake. \"Am I even pronouncing that right? It was delicious, that Camembert cheese, but I didn't know how you ate that thing - I was just a farm boy from Minnesota! Then they gave us champagne! Wow! Man! Did you ever drink champagne?\"\n\n\"I used to drink a whole bottle of that champagne every morning! We were out in the open and they (the Germans) were shooting at us and we were shooting back - and the noise! And I needed to sleep! Well that champagne was quite a thing - you drink a bottle of that and you could fall asleep! It was amazing stuff!\"\n\nAt her home in Angers, 90-year-old Thérèse le Chevalier claps her hands together in delight when I tell her about Jake and his champagne cure for insomnia.\n\nBack in June 1944, Therese was a 15-year-old boarding school pupil, but when a cousin working for the Resistance hinted to her mother that something significant was about to happen on the Normandy coast, Thérèse's mother ordered her home to Bernières-sur-Mer, the stretch of coastline known to the Allies as Juno Beach.\n\nAs Jake Larson would have been clutching his stomach and vomiting in the rolling transport ship as he waited to land at Omaha Beach, Therese was hunkered down with her parents and little sister in a trench at the back of her yard, waiting for the ground to stop trembling with the bombing and gunfire. And as soon as it did, they went into the street.\n\n\"The joy! The amazing feeling when we saw all those soldiers!\" she exclaims. \"The first were Canadians and some had their faces blacked up to avoid being spotted. And there were all kinds of weapons coming by, tanks and jeeps!\"\n\nLater, while her parents were busy, she and her little sister sneaked away to look at the sea and were startled to find it packed with boats sporting silver anti-aircraft kite balloons.\n\n\"It's strange,\" she reflects. \"But I don't remember seeing corpses or anyone injured on the beach. My 15-year-old self did not understand death, did not believe in death, so maybe I just blocked it out.\"\n\nShe does remember being chased away by soldiers who warned her that the beach was dangerous and there were things going on there which were not fit for a child to see.\n\nBut for the most part, Thérèse sparkles as she speaks of her memories of D-Day and her joy is absolutely infectious.\n\n\"Everyone was in the street,\" she tells me. \"They were so happy because first of all we were liberated, we felt free, but really because we were alive! That whole day was a wonderful feeling of life.\"\n\nTherese's mother opened up her house to the soldiers to welcome them and to try to warm them up.\n\n\"Of course, we pitied those poor things,\" Thérèse says, her hands cupping her face. \"Because they were all wet from walking in the sea - oh, we felt so sorry for them! My mother boiled water all day for their tea and we made them coffee.\" She shakes her finger, correcting herself. \"Well we didn't have coffee by then, of course, I think it was barley we gave them.\"\n\nThérèse shows me a photograph of herself taken around the time of the D-Day landings and I look at an image of a beautiful, confident young woman with masses of thick, dark hair piled high on top of her head.\n\n\"Oh yes!\" she laughs coquettishly. \"My hair was my pride, my crowning glory!\"\n\nThe soldiers were clearly enchanted by this pretty 15-year-old and gave her sweets and biscuits from their rations. But the gift she remembers most clearly is the little tin of chocolate they gave her, which could be heated up as a drink.\n\nTherese closes her eyes in ecstasy as she recalls tasting it, watching the battalions of Canadian and British soldiers.\n\n\"Honestly,\" she sighs, \"I never drank such a chocolate in all my life!\"\n\nThat evening, she says, the soldiers pulled a piano from a bomb-damaged house into the street and one of them played for the village. Thérèse doesn't remember the exact tunes he played but she knows it was something joyful.\n\n\"Because we danced!\" she laughs. \"We danced until the evening came.\"\n\nWhile we chat, Thérèse's husband Pierre watches us quietly, occasionally sighing and shaking his head. His experience of the liberation was very different from his wife's because he lived 20km south of Bernières-sur-Mer, at Caen, which would endure a further two months of heavy bombing before the Germans were defeated.\n\nLeon Gautier and the patched-up photo of Dorothea, whom he later married\n\nOn 6 June 1944, 21-year-old Leon Gautier was one of 177 elite French commandos who took part in the Normandy landings with the British 4 Commando unit.\n\nHe was one of the first men to step on to Sword beach - the British soldiers were \"gentlemanly\", he says, and allowed the French to land first. He was distraught when the photo of his English girlfriend, Dorothea, got wet in the sea. Later, in a trench, he repaired it with the sticking plaster from his first aid kit.\n\nHe remembers meeting a few French civilians near Sword beach and laughing when they presumed he was British and tried to speak to his unit in English. They told him they were scared of repercussions when the Allied forces left. \"We will not go back,\" he told them. \"This time it's for good.\"\n\nThe historian Anthony Beevor once described the Battle of Caen as being \"close to a war crime\", but Pierre does not want to criticise the Allied forces, he just says that life was \"very, very hard\" for Caen's civilians, who were almost starving by the summer of 1944. For two-and-a-half years, Pierre and his parents slept in their cellar to survive. Many of their friends and neighbours were not so lucky.\n\n\"There were many, many dead at Caen,\" he reminds me. \"And we knew nothing about D-Day. That night (6 June) the bombs fell non-stop. We imagined something might be happening but we didn't know it was accompanied by soldiers landing on the Normandy coast. All we saw were German reinforcements passing by - and, later, trucks returning from the front full of dead soldiers.\"\n\nEventually, Pierre's parents decided to evacuate to the countryside.\n\n\"The first D-Day soldiers I saw would have been in August,\" he says. \"American soldiers - a battalion of black American soldiers - gave us chewing gum but passed by quickly. We didn't have physical contact or conversation with the Americans. We were liberated without really knowing it.\" He shrugs.\n\n\"And Caen didn't get better from one day to the next. We had no electricity, no water - everything had been bombed to bits.\"\n\nThérèse has been busy shelling peas for lunch while her husband talks but she comes over to join us now and interjects that while she had the pleasure of seeing the liberation, her husband saw only the war.\n\n\"There was no joy,\" he admits. \"Even after the ceasefire in 1945, the people weren't spilling over with joy. I don't remember any laughter in the streets. I think mentally, we were all rather crushed.\"\n\nPierre and Thérèse will return to Normandy for the 75th anniversary of D-Day just as they have done many times before. And for the first time since the war ended, 96-year-old Jake Larson will be back in France too, to pay his respects at the cemeteries where his fallen comrades are buried.\n\n\"I'm the luckiest man alive,\" he tells me emphatically. \"We lost 2,400 men on Omaha beach that day, men I walked over, men who died to spare me.\" His voice trails off. \"There's a feeling of guilt in that,\" he admits. \"So now it's time to pay my respects and to thank them for their sacrifice.\"\n\nJake Larson is now the only survivor from his regiment - the \"last man standing\", as he jokes. Pierre and Thérèse too are painfully aware that in another 10 years there may be only a handful of civilian witnesses like them.\n\n\"Young people don't know about D-Day, they don't care about the war,\" says Thérèse with a wry smile. \"To them it's just history. But when you live that history, it's very, very different.\"\n\nThérèse Le Chevalier's story is featured in In Their Footsteps, an exhibition at the Juno Beach museum running until 11 November 2019\n\nJoin the conversation - find us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter.", "The UK has relaxed its travel advice for people going to Sri Lanka.\n\nBut following a reassessment of the threat, the FCO has removed that warning from its travel advice.\n\nIt now contains specific warnings about travel there - saying terrorists are likely to try to carry out attacks, including in places foreigners visit.\n\nIt also says outbreaks of mob violence, such as those that followed the Easter attacks, could happen again with little or no warning.\n\nIt warns those travelling to keep up to date with developments and remain vigilant.\n\n\"Take sensible precautions, familiarise yourself with security procedures at your hotel or accommodation and follow the advice of local authorities and hotel security staff,\" it says.", "Veteran Harry Billinge, 93, spoke to BBC Breakfast's Naga Munchetty about his memories of friends who died during the Normandy invasion in 1944.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nA former nurse has been convicted of murdering 85 patients at two hospitals in northern Germany and handed a life sentence.\n\nHögel, who is already serving life for two murders, administered lethal doses of heart medication to people in his care between 1999 and 2005.\n\nHe is believed to be the most prolific killer in Germany's modern history.\n\nProsecutors said he attacked patients in order to impress colleagues by subsequently trying to revive them.\n\nA former colleague told the German newspaper Bild that Högel was nicknamed \"Resuscitation Rambo\" because of the way he \"pushed everyone else aside\" when patients needed to be resuscitated.\n\nOn the last day of his trial, Högel, 42, asked the families of his victims for forgiveness for his \"horrible acts\".\n\n\"I would like to sincerely apologise for everything I did to you over the course of years,\" he said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

They were coming from a fair way out to get to the beach, and they were all in their uniforms and carrying guns and their own food, so they all had these cans weighing them down.\n\n\"I looked at them as we were passing them and I thought to myself, if you're seasick and you're then expected to get off the boat and start fighting… come on.\n\n\"The water was a bit choppy, which made no difference to us, but if you're in a flat bottom boat and its a bit choppy you can really feel it.\n\n\"What those men went through. It's asking a lot isn't it? I think so. Those men are bloody marvellous.\n\n\"So many of them didn't make it because they were dropped too far from the land. They went straight in the deep water and drowned.\"\n\nTed Cordery, as a young child, sitting on his mother's lap\n\nD-Day began with a damp, grey dawn over the English Channel. More than 6,330 boats carrying thousands of men readied themselves to launch the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe.\n\nThe night before, Ted and his fellow crew were told they were joining a large operation, but they had no idea of the scale until they saw the other ships.\n\nBut they were not nervous. Ted says: \"Well, you see, once you've gone to sea you've always got to be ready for action, U-boats, anything.\n\n\"It's like everything, you go into something strange and of course you're apprehensive, even if you're not frightened, because you just get on with it - and please God you'll be alright.\"\n\nHMS Belfast was the flagship of Bombardment Force E, supporting troops landing at Gold and Juno beaches by attacking German defences.\n\nThe ship came under occasional fire from German artillery and dive-bombers but managed to battle on unscathed as it continued to hit German positions.\n\nWorking predominantly on the upper deck, Ted had a bird's eye view of the action unfolding around him.\n\nHMS Belfast, pictured during the Second World War, was built in 1936\n\nHe says: \"When we got near the coast we could see all the activity and we just went in and anchored up and as soon as we got there, more or less, we opened fire.\"\n\nAs one of the larger warships present on D-Day, HMS Belfast also had a fully equipped sick bay staffed by surgeons and took hundreds of casualties on board during the first day of fighting.\n\nAfter destroying the German defence batteries, the crew was tasked with clearing the beach and bringing wounded soldiers back to the ship to receive medical treatment.\n\nTed was trained to operate one of Belfast's two cranes, which allowed him to lift stretchers up on to the deck.\n• None 4,400from the combined allied forces died on the day\n\nIt was a difficult job, made harder when he realised how badly injured the troops were.\n\nTed says: \"I'll die with this memory. These men were wounded. We put them on the stretcher. You'd then put them on a cart and get them down the beach and then put them on a pontoon on the beach.\n\n\"And then they would be taken out to the boat. And I'd lift those men out... and the injuries I saw, I couldn't tell you.\"\n\nFighting back tears, he adds: \"There was nothing I could do about it. I looked down at them, and I cried.\n\n\"I'm a soft sod. You would never believe what they went through. Those poor men.\n\n\"They took them to the sick bay, and if 2% or 3% of them survived I'd be surprised.\n\n\"They did what they could for them, but they were too far gone - they were mostly dead before they got them in the sick bay.\n\n\"But the injuries - faces, stomachs, legs off - oh God. I know nurses would say to me 'silly sod', they see it every day, in a more clinical fashion.\n\n\"But the way I saw it - God, I think to myself, I'm lucky to be alive. Those poor people.\n\n\"I think there were about 10,000 men lost that day. And what for?

charge of the investigation into one of the London Bridge attackers has denied chances were missed to thwart the attack before it happened, an inquest has heard.\n\nThe inquest previously heard there were \"opportunities galore\" to identify those plotting the attack.\n\nBut on Wednesday, the officer, known as Witness M, said that was not the case.\n\nEight people were killed and a further 48 injured in the knife and van attack, which was carried out on 3 June 2017.\n\nKhuram Butt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22, were shot and killed by police less than 10 minutes after the violence began.\n\nThe inquest into the victims' deaths is being held at London's Old Bailey court.\n\nSuggestions of missed opportunities relate to a gym where the three attackers had been meeting and also a primary school where two of them worked.\n\nWitness M acknowledged that his team knew that Butt was attending the Ummah Fitness Centre in east London, but did not investigate it further to discover that Butt was meeting regularly with his two accomplices there.\n\nWitness M also acknowledged that his team had not discovered that the gym was connected to a figure who, the court heard, had alleged links to a terrorist training camp in Pakistan.\n\nGareth Patterson QC, representing six of the victims' families, suggested the police failure to look at the gym and the school was \"a very real missed opportunity in the months leading up to the attack\" - and that the enquiry team had been \"operationally blinkered\".\n\nBut Witness M insisted that theirs was an \"intelligence led\" operation and MI5 had not offered evidence that would support further enquiries into the gym.\n\n\"There was no intelligence that suggested the gym was significant prior to the attack, and we followed the intelligence around a number of schools and it was uncorroborated,\" he said.\n\nAsked if he believed opportunities to stop the terror plot were missed, he said: \"There is nothing I could look back on and say 'this was a missed opportunity around a significant disruption', nor was there anything that we had in our possession at the time that indicated any attack was being planned.\"\n\nMr Patterson suggested extremist material found on Butt's phone and laptop when he was arrested for fraud in 2016 showed he had an \"obsession\" with Isis and a willingness to die.\n\nThe material included images of Isis executions and suicide bombers, a terrorist propaganda magazine Dabiq, pictures of Isis captives with guns held to their head, and an image of a man with a

preacher Ahmed Musa Jibril asking if people have visions of the future before death, and Jibril suggesting he would see Butt in paradise.\n\nWitness M said: \"This rhetoric, this conversation, this mindset we see right the way across the spectrum of all the subjects of interest we deal with.\n\n\"None of this material shows that he was planning for an attack or that any offence had been committed.\"\n\nOn Tuesday, the inquest heard the team investigating one of the attackers was not told he had been reported to an anti-terror hotline.\n\nButt's brother-in-law had reported his

Moreover, she said, the UK had pledged to remedy those issues before the May 2019 elections.\n\nWithin hours of the polling booths opening, the hashtag #deniedmyvote was trending on Twitter, with EU citizens saying they had been turned away from polling stations in the UK.\n\nMs Jourova noted that the UK authorities had faced \"practical challenges\" in organising the elections to the European Parliament, since the UK had been preparing to exit the EU on 29 March, but on 11 April the EU had agreed to extend the deadline to 31 October.\n\nShe asked the UK government to provide information about the obstacles that EU voters had faced in the UK, as well as data \"on the incidents reported and the complaints lodged with the UK authorities\".\n\nThe UK hosts about 3.2m nationals from the other 27 member states, while about 1.3m UK citizens live elsewhere in the EU.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nConservative MPs may have whittled the contenders in the leadership race down to the final two - but it will not be politicians who will decide who gets to be the next prime minister.\n\nInstead it will be the party's grassroots members who will decide which of Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson gets to succeed Theresa May.\n\nThey will do so in a postal ballot, with the winner announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nIn other words, it is members of the public - those who pay £25 a year to join the Conservative Party - who get the final say on who leads the country.\n\nThere will not be a general election because the party is already in power.\n\nSo, who are the Conservative Party's members and what do they think on key issues, not least, of course, Brexit?\n\nThe Conservative Party membership is currently thought to be around 160,000 - a rise of more than 30,000 in the past 12 months.\n\nThe last time official figures were released was in March 2018, when they put the figure at 124,000.\n\nThat is way down on the peak of nearly 3 million that the party boasted in the early 1950s.\n\nThe Tories have far fewer members than the Labour Party.\n\nEven if we assume that Labour's membership has fallen from the late 2017 peak of more than 550,000, it still has a huge advantage over the Conservatives when it comes to campaigning on the ground.\n\nRight now, however, none of that matters as much as the fact that those 160,000 or so rank-and-file members of the Conservative Party have a crucial role.\n\nThey are going to be choosing the next prime minister of a country of over 65 million people - something which has never happened before.\n\nFrom studies of the 124,000 members that the party had in 2018, we know quite a lot about who they are and their beliefs.\n\nMost members of most parties in the UK are pretty middle-class.\n\nBut Conservative Party members are the most middle-class of all: some 86% of them fall into the ABC1 category used by market researchers to describe the top social grade.\n\nAround a quarter of them are, or were, self-employed and nearly half of them work, or used to, in the private sector.\n\nNearly four out of 10 put their annual income at over £30,000, and one in 20 put it at over £100,000. As such, Tory members are considerably better-off than most voters and, indeed, the members of other parties.\n\nOn the other hand, the fact that 97% of Conservative Party members are white doesn't do much to distinguish them from their counterparts in other parties.\n\nIt does inevitably mean, however, that ethnic minorities, who make up well over 10% of British people, are heavily under-represented in the Tory rank and file.\n\nSo, too, are women. Other parties - notably Labour and the Greens, but also the SNP - now come close to gender balance, but seven out of 10 Conservative members are male.\n\nTory members are also older than the members of most other parties. True, their average age may \"only\" be 57, but this disguises the fact that four out of 10 are over 65.\n\nThey are concentrated in the southern half of England. Nearly 60% of Tory members live in London, the east, south-east and south-west.\n\nSo much for demography and geography. What about ideology?\n\nWell, not surprisingly, Tory Party members are more right-wing than the population as a whole.\n\nOn a scale where zero represents very left-wing and 10 very right-wing, the average voter places themselves at the centre point. The average Conservative Party member places themselves at 7.6.\n\nThree-quarters of them believe, for instance, that young people today don't have enough respect for traditional values. Nearly six out of 10 support the death penalty.\n\nThey are also conventionally right-wing on some aspects of economic policy.\n\nFor example, only 15% of them believe that government should redistribute income from the better-off to those who are less well-off.\n\nBut on other issues they hold views that may be more unexpected.\n\nA third of Tory rank-and-file members believe that ordinary working people do not get their fair share of the nation's wealth and that there is one law for the rich and one for the poor.\n\nAbout half believe that big business takes advantage of ordinary people.\n\nInterestingly, they have also cooled on austerity. In the summer of 2015, some 55% said government spending cuts hadn't gone far enough, but two years later that had fallen to 28%.\n\nWhat Tory members haven't cooled on, however, is Brexit.\n\nIndeed, since we started tracking them in 2015, they've hardened their position.\n\nIt is clear that they are not supporters of the deal negotiated by Theresa May.\n\nIn fact, it is now the case that fully two-thirds of them back a no-deal Brexit - an outcome supported by only a quarter of voters as a whole.\n\nNor are they in the least bit keen on the idea of letting the public have another say on the UK's EU membership.\n\nSome 84% of them oppose the idea of a new referendum on the issue.\n\nIn short, the grassroots aren't simply sceptical on Europe; they can't wait to leave, whatever that might take.\n\nFurthermore, a breakdown of YouGov polling data suggests that the 30,000 or so members who have joined in the past year are even more likely to be pro-Brexit.\n\nThis, then, is the Conservative Party electorate.\n\nAnd those MPs hoping to succeed Mrs May will need to pitch their promises accordingly.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from experts working for an outside organisation.\n\nTim Bale is Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.", "The person died in a fall while on An Teallach on Sunday\n\nA 70-year-old man has died after he slipped and fell during a walking trip to a mountain ridge.\n\nThe accident happened on An Teallach near Dundonnell in Wester Ross on Sunday afternoon.\n\nThe emergency services were alerted to the man's fall by another hillwalker at about 13:30.\n\nFourteen members of Dundonnell Mountain Rescue Team and Inverness Coastguard search and rescue helicopter were called to the scene.\n\nThe man's body was located by the rescue helicopter crew.

But earlier this month he told the Telegraph he would fund the income tax cuts partly by using money that had been set aside by the Treasury for a possible no-deal Brexit.\n\n\"We should be raising thresholds of income tax so that we help the huge numbers that have been captured in the higher rate by fiscal drag,\" Mr Johnson said.\n\nHowever during the televised leadership debate he described the tax plan as \"an ambition\" rather than a fixed policy.\n\nOn Monday, in an interview with the BBC, Mr Johnson addressed questions over Britain's exit from the EU.\n\nThe IFS said raising the threshold for the higher rate of tax would take around two and half million people out of the top income tax bracket and cost about £9bn. Top earners would gain an average of nearly £2,500 a year, the IFS said.\n\nBut while in the short run only 8% of the population were set to benefit, more people would move into the £50,000 to £80,000 bracket as time went on and would enjoy a lower rate of tax as a result, it said.\n\nThe numbers of those falling into the higher tax bracket had \"crept up\" over time, so that there are currently more than four million higher rate taxpayers, compared with one and a half million 30 years ago, the IFS said.\n\nRaising the point at which workers start to pay national insurance contributions would help low-earning individuals, the IFS said, although it benefited higher earners as well. The IFS said increases to tax credits would be a more effective way to help low income households.\n\nMr Johnson is running against Jeremy Hunt in a vote by Conservative party members to be chosen as the next Conservative party leader and to take over from Theresa May as prime minister.\n\nMr Hunt has said he is in favour of a plan to cut the tax on company profits from 17% to 12.5% from 2020.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Jeremy Hunt: \"We are democrats who want to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBoris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt have made their pitch to be the next prime minister at the first of 16 Conservative Party hustings.\n\nThe two contenders for Number 10 laid out their vision for the country at a conference in Birmingham.\n\nMr Johnson said these were \"dark days\" for his party, but insisted he could turn things around.\n\nBut his rival warned members not to elect the \"wrong person\" and risk \"catastrophe\".\n\nMr Johnson said the most important thing was to \"get Brexit done\".\n\nHe said: \"My ambition is to unite this country and our society... let's take Britain forward.\n\n\"We need to discover a new confidence in our country.\"\n\nThe former mayor of London featured on most of Saturday's newspaper front pages following reports by the Guardian that police were called to his London home after neighbours reported \"slamming and banging\" in the early hours of Friday morning.\n\nThe Metropolitan Police Service have said they will not be taking any further action following the episode.\n\nAsked by the hustings moderator, LBC presenter Iain Dale, whether character mattered when choosing a prime minister, Mr Johnson said: \"I don't think people want to hear about that.\"\n\nAccused of ducking questions, Mr Johnson said: \"People are entitled to ask me what I want to do for the country.\"\n\nHis rival, Mr Hunt, said the UK was in a \"very serious situation\".\n\nHe continued: \"Get things wrong and and there will be no Conservative government, and maybe even no Conservative Party.\n\n\"Get things right and we can deliver Brexit, unite the party and send [Labour leader Jeremy] Corbyn packing.\"\n\nBut he warned that if Tory party members elected the \"wrong person\" as leader then \"catastrophe awaits\".\n\nMr Johnson, meanwhile, said he would prepare for a no-deal Brexit if he became PM.\n\nHe said: \"We must be able to come out on WTO terms, so that for the first time in these negotiations we carry conviction.\n\n\"And it is precisely because we will be preparing between now and 31 October for a no-deal Brexit that we will get the deal we need.\"\n\nHe repeated his previous claim that it was \"eminently feasible\" for the UK to leave the EU by 31 October, saying he intended to make it happen.\n\nThat is the date that the EU's membership extension runs out, and if nothing has changed, the UK leaves without a deal.\n\nTheresa May officially stood down as Tory leader on 7 June and will cease to be prime minister in the week commencing 22 July.\n\nAn initial list of 10 candidates to replace her was whittled down to Mr Hunt and Mr Johnson in a vote by Tory MPs.\n\nIn the fifth and final round on Thursday, Boris Johnson came out on top with 160 out of the 313 votes cast. Mr Hunt received 77 votes and Michael Gove was knocked out with 75.\n\nOne questioner at the hustings wanted to know whether Mr Johnson's approach to British business in the context of Brexit was as \"cavalier and careless\" as previously, when he used an expletive.\n\nHe replied: \"I believe passionately in UK businesses, and as foreign secretary I spent a lot of my time promoting UK businesses at home abroad.\"\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary\n\nJeremy Hunt insisted he would leave the EU with no deal if necessary.\n\nHe said: \"I would do so with a heavy heart. But if we have to in the end I would do that.\"\n\nOf a mooted renegotiation with Brussels, he said: \"If we send the wrong person there's going to be no negotiation, no trust, no deal, and if Parliament stops that, maybe no Brexit.\n\n\"Send the right person and there's a deal to be done.\"\n\nAnd challenged over the fact he campaigned for Remain in 2016, the would-be premier said: \"Look at my record since that referendum.\n\n\"I have been very clear on every occasion...

We are not going to fail.\"\n\nHe said it was \"disgraceful\" the UK was still in the EU three years after it voted to leave, and exiting the EU would \"renew the national faith in democracy\".\n\nHe did not address questions about his private life in the column.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Five things you need to know about Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador or \"Amlo\"", "England boss Phil Neville said he was \"ashamed\" by Cameroon's behaviour after a World Cup last-16 victory he said \"didn't feel like football\".\n\nThe Lionesses booked a quarter-final spot against Norway after a 3-0 win.\n\nBut the game was marred by Cameroon's extraordinary reaction to two video assistant referee decisions and several poor challenges on England's players.\n\n\"That wasn't a World Cup last-16 tie in terms of behaviour that I want to see from footballers,\" said Neville.\n\n\"I am completely and utterly ashamed of the opposition.\"\n• None 'Very entertaining but for the wrong reasons' - the game that had everything\n\nThe former Manchester United defender said ex-Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger had once told him \"the team mirror the manager\".\n\nNeville added: \"If that was my team - and it will never be any of my players - they would never play for England again.\n\n\"At times, we probably didn't know whether the game would continue. It didn't feel like football.\n\n\"This is going out worldwide. I didn't enjoy it, the players didn't enjoy it. My players kept their concentration fantastically, but those images are going out worldwide about how to act, the young girls playing all over the world that are seeing that behaviour.

The rules are rules. For the second goal, Ellen White was onside, deal with it.\n\n\"We have been spoken to about 350,000 times by referees for the last three weeks. We know the rules and the referee got every one right and in the end, the referee took pity on them.\n\n\"They should count their lucky stars that it wasn't five or six. The behaviour was wrong, because it's an image of women's football that is going worldwide about a team that are refusing to play.\n\n\"I'm proud of my players for their discipline and the belief they had and going out there and playing a game of football.\"\n\nIn addition to the elbow on Parris, which was not reviewed by VAR, Houghton was caught by a late challenge by Alexandra Takounda in stoppage time.\n\nIt led to more dramatic scenes as Cameroon captain Gabrielle Onguene started to berate the England captain as she lay on the floor.\n\nTakounda was only booked for the challenge, which was reviewed by VAR, and Neville said Houghton's injury was a \"concern\".\n\n\"Steph Houghton was player of the match and can't be [at the press conference] as she's on the treatment table, from the tackle that everyone saw,\" Neville said.\n\n\"She needs to recover, she's in a lot of pain. We're concerned about her. She's not someone that stays down.\n\n\"It was a late tackle and we will have to do everything possible to get her fit for the quarter-finals.\"\n\nOn the elbow incident, Parris told the BBC: \"I don't think it was malicious. I just felt it was an action of her running technique but it hit me in the jaw, clean and square.\n\n\"They were really physical, but you expect that.

She estimated that it would raise $2.75tn over 10 years.\n\nThe letter alluded to support among Democratic presidential candidates for higher taxes on the super-wealthy, including Pete Buttigieg and Beto O'Rourke.\n\nOf about 40 countries, the US is the sixth highest in terms of wealth concentration, according to data from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.\n\nTaxing the super-wealthy \"would slow the growing concentration of wealth that undermines the stability and integrity of our republic,\" the letter said.\n\nIt added: \"Today, major policies seldom come to pass without the prior support of wealthy elites or other wealthy interests.

The images that are still available on Instagram have a sort of filter, if you like, so they can't be clearly seen,\" he said.\n\nOn wider attitudes towards the sector, Sir Nick said there had been a shift in recent years from \"tech utopia\" - where people like Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg \"could do no wrong\" - to a culture of \"tech phobia\".\n\nBut he cautioned against any excessive backlash against technology: \"I think we end up with the risk that we throw the baby out with the bathwater and make it almost impossible for tech to innovate properly.\"\n\n\"Technology is not good or bad,\" he said. \"Technology down the ages is used by good and bad people for good and bad ends.\"\n\nFacebook's recent enthusiasm for regulation marks a bit of a contrast from Mark Zuckerberg's previous refusals to meet with UK politicians on the subject of the spread of fake news and inappropriate content.\n\nHaving once dismissed the notion that Russia used Facebook to try to interfere with the US Presidential election in 2016 as \"a pretty crazy idea\" Zuckerberg was forced to backtrack when it became apparent that state actors were indeed at work posting material deliberately designed to divide opinion.\n\nThe tech giant now realises that regulation is inevitably coming its way, and perhaps feels it's more strategic for it to be as involved as it can be in the creation of any new rules and whichever body would enforce them.\n\nThere are many examples of occasions when Facebook has failed to self-police - no small feat with 2.3 billion users posting their own material in real time - and by playing ball with national or international regulation perhaps it absolves itself of some of that heavy responsibility.", "Jaclyn Hill has issued a refund for her So Rich lipsticks\n\nBeauty YouTuber Jaclyn Hill has promised to refund everyone who bought one of her lipsticks, after some appeared contaminated.\n\nShe said on Instagram on Sunday that everyone would receive a full refund, even if they hadn't complained.\n\nSince she launched them at the end of May, social media has been flooded with complaints about their quality.\n\nSome reported they opened the $18 (£14) lipsticks to find hairs, holes and plastic balls embedded in the formula.\n\nThis includes YouTuber Alexandra, who says hers contained shards of metal.\n\nShe runs the channel Pretty Pastel Please and the video of her unboxing the lipsticks has been viewed nearly a million times.\n\nThis YouTube post cannot be displayed in your browser.

At the time, no Tory MPs backed the move.\n\nBut MPs have suggested this could change if the next prime minister - whether it is Boris Johnson or his rival Jeremy Hunt - tries to take the UK out of the EU on 31 October without a legally-binding agreement.\n\nA no-deal exit would see the UK leave the customs union and single market overnight and start trading with the EU on World Trade Organisation rules.\n\nOpponents say it would cause huge disruption at the borders and be catastrophic to many firms reliant on trade with the continent.\n\nBut it remains the default legal outcome unless the EU grants the UK another extension to the Brexit process.\n\nAsked if Conservatives opposed to a no-deal Brexit had the \"numbers\", Mr Ellwood told Panorama: \"I believe that absolutely is the case.\n\n\"I think a dozen or so members of Parliament would be on our side, would be voting against supporting a no deal, and that would include ministers as well as backbenchers.\"\n\nTory former chancellor and pro-European Ken Clarke suggested he would be prepared to bring down a Conservative government to avoid a no-deal Brexit.\n\nHe told BBC Radio 4's The World at One: \"It depends on the circumstances at the time...\n\n\"But I am not going to vote in favour of a government that says it is going to pursue policies which are totally incompatible with everything the Conservative Party has stood for under all those prime ministers for the decades that I have been in Parliament.\"\n\nBut Conservative MP Marcus Fysh, a supporter of Mr Johnson's, said such \"negative\" comments from his colleagues were \"unwise\".\n\nHe said Mr Johnson was the only person able to reassure MPs and the public that the UK was properly prepared for the eventuality of a no-deal exit and could make the best of it.\n\nMeanwhile, Change UK, Parliament's newest political party - which has five MPs - says it will back a no confidence vote in the government to avoid a no-deal Brexit.\n\nThis is a change from the party's suggestion in April that it would back the government in such a circumstance because its MPs did not believe a general election would solve the Brexit deadlock.\n\nA Change UK spokesman said: \"If faced with the prospect of crashing out of the EU with no deal, MPs from all parties must put our country first and support a vote of no confidence in the government.\n\n\"No deal would be a disaster for the UK's economy, for people's livelihoods and for our reputation on the international stage.\"\n\nBrexit was supposed to happen on 29 March but the UK was given an extra seven months to try and get Parliament's approval for the terms of withdrawal, rejected three times by MPs.\n\nIn his Daily Telegraph column on Monday, Mr Johnson said of the new 31 October deadline: \"This time we are not going to bottle it. We are not going to fail.\"\n\nBut Mr Hunt challenged his rival to reveal whether he would call an election, something he himself has ruled out, if MPs refused to allow the UK to leave without a deal on that date.\n\nHe said he feared a government led by Mr Johnson would rapidly collapse, because he would be unable to hold together a coalition of supporters that range from MPs who back no deal to others who feel it would be totally unacceptable.\n\n\"If you are not clear about exactly what you are going to do, that coalition will collapse immediately and you will have Jeremy Corbyn in Number 10,\" the foreign secretary said.\n\nThe Race For No 10 will be broadcast on Panorama on BBC One at 20.30 BST on 24 June.", "Jack Ritchie took his own life seven years after he began gambling at school\n\nThe NHS is to open its first gambling clinic for children and young people.\n\nThe National Problem Gambling Clinic will aim to offer support to addicts aged 13 to 25.\n\nIt is part of an expansion of support for those with an addiction announced in an NHS long-term plan which will see 14 clinics open around England.\n\nThe Gambling Commission, which regulates the industry, said it was essential people had easy access to support and treatment.\n\nThe parents of one young man who took his own life after battling with a gambling addiction also welcomed the announcement.\n\nJack Ritchie, from Sheffield, started gambling with his dinner money at the local bookies when he was 17.

His muscular diplomacy has riled allies in Europe and beyond.\n\nHe has polarised his country but President Erdogan is a proven election winner. His supporters call him reis - \"chief\".\n\nAccusing his opponents of treating Turkey's electorate with contempt and failing to win them over he declared: \"As 85 million, we will protect our ballot, our will and our future.\"\n\nBorn in February 1954, Recep Tayyip Erdogan grew up the son of a coastguard, on Turkey's Black Sea coast. When he was 13, his father decided to move to Istanbul, hoping to give his five children a better upbringing.\n\nThe young Erdogan sold lemonade and sesame buns to earn extra cash. He attended an Islamic school before obtaining a degree in management from Istanbul's Marmara University - and playing professional football.\n\nErdogan supporters like his tough language and defence of traditional Muslim values\n\nIn the 1970s and 80s, he was active in Islamist circles, joining Necmettin Erbakan's pro-Islamic Welfare Party. As the party grew in popularity in the 1990s, Mr Erdogan was elected as its candidate for mayor of Istanbul in 1994 and ran the city for the next four years.\n\nBut his term came to an end when he was convicted of inciting racial hatred for publicly reading a nationalist poem that included the lines: \"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers.\"\n\nAfter serving four months in jail, he returned to politics. But his party had been banned for violating the strict secular principles of the modern Turkish state.\n\nIn August 2001, he founded an new, Islamist-rooted party with ally Abdullah Gul. In 2002, the AKP won a majority in parliamentary elections, and the following year Mr Erdogan was appointed prime minister. He remains chairman of the AKP or Justice and Development Party to this day.\n\nFrom 2003, he spent three terms as prime minister, presiding over a period of steady economic growth and winning praise internationally as a reformer. The middle class expanded and millions were taken out of poverty, as Mr Erdogan prioritised giant infrastructure projects to modernise Turkey.\n\nBut critics warned he was becoming increasingly autocratic.\n\nBy 2013, protesters took to the streets, partly because of his government's plans to transform a much-loved park in the centre of Istanbul, but also in a challenge to more authoritarian rule. The prime minister condemned the protesters as \"capulcu\" (riff-raff), and neighbourhoods would clang pots and pans at nine o'clock every night in a spirit of defiance. Allegations of corruption ensnared the sons of three cabinet allies.\n\nThe Gezi Park protests marked a turning point in his rule. To his detractors, he was acting more like a sultan from the Ottoman Empire than a democrat.\n\nMr Erdogan also fell out with a US-based Islamic scholar called Fethullah Gulen, whose social and cultural movement had helped him to victory in three consecutive elections and had been active in removing the military from politics. It was a feud that would have dramatic repercussions for Turkish society.\n\nAfter a decade of his rule, Mr Erdogan's party also moved to lift a ban on women wearing headscarves in public services that was introduced after a military coup in 1980. The ban was eventually lifted for women in the police, military and judiciary.\n\nCritics complained he had chipped away at the pillars of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk's secular republic. While religious himself, Mr Erdogan always denied wanting to impose Islamic values, insisting he supported the rights of Turks to express their religion more openly.\n\nMr Erdogan's wife Emine often appeared in public in a headscarf\n\nHowever, he has repeatedly supported criminalising adultery. And as a father of four, he has said \"no Muslim family\" should consider birth control or family planning. \"We will multiply our descendants,\" he said in May 2016.\n\nHe has extolled motherhood, condemned feminists and said men and women cannot be treated equally.\n\nMr Erdogan has long championed Islamist causes - and was known to give the four-finger salute of Egypt's repressed Muslim Brotherhood.\n\nIn July 2020, he oversaw the conversion of Istanbul's historic Hagia Sophia into a mosque, angering many Christians. Built 1,500 years ago as a cathedral, it was made into a mosque by the Ottoman Turks, but Ataturk had turned it into a museum - a symbol of the new secular state.\n\nIt was no accident that the president chose to address supporters at evening prayers within hours of the 2023 vote getting under way.\n\nBarred from running again for prime minister, in 2014 he stood for the largely ceremonial role of president in unprecedented direct elections. He had big plans for reforming the post, creating a new constitution that would benefit all Turks and place their country among the world's top 10 economies.\n\nBut early in his presidency, he faced two jolts to his power. His party lost its majority in parliament for several months in a 2015 vote, and then months later, in 2016, Turkey witnessed its first violent attempted coup for decades.\n\nRebel soldiers came close to capturing the president, holidaying at a coastal resort, but he was airlifted to safety. In the early hours of 16 July, he emerged triumphant at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport, to the cheers of supporters. Almost 300 civilians were killed as they blocked the advance of the coup plotters.\n\nThe president appeared on national TV and rallied supporters in Istanbul, declaring he was the \"chief commander\". But the strain was clear when he sobbed openly while giving a speech at the funeral of a close friend, shot with his son by mutinous soldiers.\n\nThe plot was blamed on the Gulen movement and led to some 150,000 public servants being sacked and more than 50,000 people being detained, including soldiers, journalists, lawyers, police officers, academics and Kurdish politicians.\n\nThis crackdown on critics caused alarm abroad, contributing to frosty relations with the EU: Turkey's bid to join the union has not progressed for years. Arguments over an influx of migrants into Greece exacerbated the ill-feeling.\n\nBut from his gleaming, 1,000-room Ak Saray palace overlooking Ankara, President Erdogan's position appeared more secure than ever.\n\nControversy has surrounded Mr Erdogan's costly and sprawling presidential palace in Ankara\n\nHe narrowly won a 2017 referendum granting him sweeping presidential powers, including the right to impose a state of emergency and appoint top public officials as well as intervene in the legal system.\n\nA year later, he secured outright victory in the first round of a presidential poll.\n\nHis core vote lies in small Anatolian towns and rural, conservative areas. In 2019, his party lost in the three biggest cities - Istanbul; the capital, Ankara; and Izmir.\n\nLosing the Istanbul mayorship narrowly to Ekrem Imamoglu of the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) was a bitter blow to Mr Erdogan, who was the city's mayor in the 1990s. He never accepted the result.\n\nMr Imamoglu was ahead of the president in the opinion polls before he was barred from running in the May elections. The president and his allies were accused of using the courts to disqualify the popular mayor from the vote.\n\nTurkey's third biggest party, the pro-Kurdish HDP, also feared being banned from the parliamentary vote because of alleged links to Kurdish militants, but instead it decided to stand under a different banner.\n\nLike previous Turkish leaders, President Erdogan has cracked down hard on the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).\n\nAlthough Turkey has taken in more than 3.5 million refugees fleeing the Syrian civil war, Ankara has also launched operations against Kurdish militias across the borders, alienating Kurds in Turkey.\n\nMr Erdogan has long held close ties with Russia's Vladimir Putin and has sought a pivotal role as a mediator in the conflict in Ukraine.\n\nDespite being the leader of a Nato state, he bought a Russian anti-missile defence system and chose Russia to build Turkey's first nuclear reactor.\n\nAhead of the 2023 election, he sought to bolster his credentials with nationalist and conservative voters by accusing the West of moving against him.\n\n\"My nation will foil this plot,\" he asserted, describing it as a kind of breaking point.\n\nHe rounded off his 2023 presidential campaign with a visit to the mausoleum of Adnan Menderes, Turkey's first democratically-elected prime minister who was executed in 1961 after a military coup.\n\nHis message: \"The era of coups and juntas is over.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nFrance is braced for a heatwave with temperatures forecast to exceed 40C this week – potentially breaking the record for June.\n\nTemperatures were expected to reach 35 degrees or more on Monday, and climb even further until the peak on Thursday and Friday.\n\nThe north of the country – including Paris - will be worst affected.\n\nTemporary fountains have been put in place and public pools will stay open later as part of an extreme heat plan.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nWater will also be distributed and a care plan will be put in effect for vulnerable people including the elderly, as high humidity will make 40C feel like 47C in the capital.\n\nFrance, Germany, Switzerland and Belgium could all see national records for June broken in the coming days – but France is particularly aware of the dangers posed by the hot weather.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Boris Johnson on Brexit, privacy and his character\n\nBoris Johnson has admitted he would need EU co-operation to avoid a hard Irish border or the possibility of crippling tariffs on trade in the event of a no-deal Brexit.\n\nIn an exclusive interview with the BBC, the favourite to be the next PM said: \"It's not just up to us.\"\n\nBut he said he did \"not believe for a moment\" the UK would leave without a deal, although he was willing to do so.\n\nAsked about a row he'd had with his partner, he said it was \"simply unfair\" to involve \"loved ones\" in the debate.\n\nReports of the argument on Friday with his girlfriend, Carrie Symonds, dominated headlines over the weekend after the police were called to their address in London.\n\nThe interview comes after Sky News said it would have to cancel a head-to-head debate on Tuesday between the two leadership contenders as Mr Johnson had \"so far declined\" to take part.\n\nWork and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd told Radio 4's Today programme she found Mr Johnson's decision to ignore live TV debates \"very odd\" and urged him \"to reconsider\".\n\nFollowing days of criticism that he has been avoiding media scrutiny, Mr Johnson has given a number of other interviews, including with LBC and Talk Radio.\n\nOn LBC, he was repeatedly challenged on his personal life and a photograph which showed him and his partner. Asked whether his campaign was behind the release of the picture, Mr Johnson refused to answer.\n\nHe told Talk Radio's political editor Ross Kempsell he would \"not rest\" until the UK had left the EU, insisting Brexit would happen on 31 October \"come what may... do or die\".\n\nMeanwhile, the other candidate, Jeremy Hunt has promised to boost defence spending by £15bn over the next five years if he becomes prime minister.\n\nIn his interview with BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg, Mr Johnson said the existing deal negotiated by Theresa May \"is dead\".\n\nHe insisted it was possible to broker a new deal with the EU before the end of October because the political landscape had changed in the UK and on the continent.\n\n\"I think actually that politics has changed so much since 29 March,\" he said, referring to the original Brexit deadline.\n\n\"I think on both sides of the Channel there's a really different understanding of what is needed.\"\n\nAt the moment, the UK is due to leave the EU on 31 October after the PM's Brexit deal was rejected three times by Parliament, and the EU has previously said the withdrawal agreement reached with the UK cannot be reopened.\n\nMr Johnson said he would be able to persuade Brussels to resolve the Irish border issue - a key sticking point - despite repeated warnings from EU leaders that that was impossible.\n\nHe said there were \"abundant, abundant technical fixes\" that could be made to avoid border checks.\n\nWhen challenged that these did not exist yet, Mr Johnson replied: \"Well, they do actually... in very large measure they do, you have trusted trader schemes, all sorts of schemes that you could put into place.\"\n\nBut, he admitted, there was \"no single magic bullet\" to solve the issue.\n\nMr Johnson's really controversial gamble is to say he could do a new trade deal with EU leaders before the end of October.\n\nAnd he says he would be able to do that before resolving the most controversial conundrum - how you fix the dilemma over the Irish border.\n\nHe clearly believes he has the political skill to pull that off. He and his supporters would say that is a plan.\n\nBut it is a plan that is full of ifs and buts - either heroic or foolhardy assumptions to imagine that EU leaders and Parliament would be ready to back his vision - and back it by Halloween - on an extremely tight deadline.\n\nThe political pressure is on, not just to get it done quickly, but done in a way that does not harm our relations with the rest of the world and the livelihoods of people living in this country.\n\nIn terms of the controversies over his personal life, it is absolutely clear even now - when he is on the threshold of No 10 - that Boris Johnson thinks there are questions he simply does not have to answer.\n\nAnd for a politician about whose character many people have their doubts, that is going to follow him around unless and until he is willing to give more.\n\nMr Johnson said if he was elected he would start new talks as soon as he reached Downing Street to discuss a free trade agreement.\n\nHe also said he hoped the EU would be willing to grant a period of time where the status quo was maintained for a deal to be finalised after Brexit.\n\nHe called this \"an implementation period\", but accepted this was not the same as the implementation period in the current draft treaty agreed with the EU.\n\nMr Johnson committed to passing new laws as soon as possible in order to guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in the UK.\n\nThe former foreign secretary also suggested EU leaders might change their attitude to renegotiation because they had Brexit Party MEPs they did not want in their Parliament, and wanted to get the £39bn that had been promised as part of the so-called divorce bill.\n\nAnd he said MPs could be more willing to back a revised deal because - after disappointing local and European elections last month - they realised both Labour and the Conservatives would face \"real danger of extinction\" if Brexit were to be stalled again.\n\nMr Johnson refused again to give more detail of what happened at his home in the early hours of Friday.\n\n\"I do not talk about stuff involving my family, my loved ones,\" he said.\n\n\"And there's a very good reason for that. That is that, if you do, you drag them into things that really is... not fair on them.\"\n\nInstead of his private life, he said the public actually want to know \"what is going on with this guy?\"\n\n\"Does he, when it comes to trust, when it comes to character, all those things, does he deliver what he says he's going to deliver?\"\n\nDespite widespread criticisms from his fellow Conservatives that he cannot be trusted, Mr Johnson said anyone questioning his character was \"talking absolute nonsense\".\n\nHe also refused to respond to accusations from rival Jeremy Hunt that he was being a \"coward\" for avoiding more head-to-head TV debates, promising that if elected he would \"govern from the centre right\" because the centre \"is where you win\".\n\nMs Rudd, who is supporting Mr Hunt, said Mr Johnson was making a mistake by shying away from the debates and said he needed to \"go further\" in explaining his Brexit plan.\n\n\"This is an incredibly difficult situation and Boris needs to explain how he will deal with both sides of the Conservative Party that have concerns and try and break the impasse with the European Union.\n\n\"Enthusiasm and optimism is not sufficient.\"\n\nResponding to claims that a dozen Tory MPs would be prepared to bring down a government heading to a no-deal Brexit, she said: \"I think that's about right. I think it's slightly less than that, but it's certainly more than two.\"\n\nCorrection 7th August 2019: An earlier version of this article referred to crippling tariffs on trade in the event of a no-deal Brexit and has been amended to make clear that Boris Johnson was asked about this as a possibility.", "The neighbour who called police about a loud row at the home of Boris Johnson - and later reported it to a newspaper - has defended his actions.\n\nThe Guardian said Mr Johnson's partner Carrie Symonds could be heard telling the Tory MP to \"get out of my flat\".\n\nTom Penn told the paper he was worried about his neighbours' safety, adding: \"I hope that anybody would have done the same thing.\"\n\nOn Saturday, the Tory leadership hopeful avoided questions on the row.\n\nMr Penn said he began recording from inside his flat in Camberwell, south London, after he heard \"slamming and banging\".\n\nHe said he contacted the Guardian with the recording \"once clear that no-one was harmed\" because he \"felt it was of important public interest\".\n\n\"I believe it is reasonable for someone who is likely to become our next prime minister to be held accountable for all of their words, actions and behaviours,\" he said.\n\nIn the recording - heard by the Guardian but not by the BBC - Mr Johnson was reportedly refusing to leave the flat and told the woman to \"get off\" his laptop, before there was a loud crashing noise.\n\nMs Symonds is reported to be heard saying that the MP had ruined a sofa with red wine, adding: \"You just don't care for anything because you're spoilt. You have no care for money or anything.\"\n\nThe newspaper said Ms Symonds was also heard telling him to \"get off me\" and \"get out of my flat\".\n\nMr Penn said he was collecting a takeaway meal from outside his front door when he first heard shouting.\n\nHe said the shouting was \"loud enough and angry enough that I felt frightened and concerned for the welfare of those involved\".\n\nHe said he and his wife decided to check on their neighbours, but agreed to call the police when there was no response after knocking on Ms Symonds door.\n\nPolice said they spoke to all occupants of the address, who were safe and well.\n\nAnother neighbour, who would only give her name as Fatima, told the BBC: \"I heard a female voice, shouting and screaming, and then I heard things smashing, it sounded like plates or glasses.\n\n\"I couldn't hear what she was saying but she sounded really angry.\"\n\nCarrie Symonds has been in a relationship with Mr Johnson since 2018\n\nMr Penn also criticised \"unpleasant things\" being said about him and his partner in the media, saying he was upset by some \"quite frankly bizarre and fictitious allegations\".\n\nSome of Mr Johnson's supporters have expressed scepticism about Mr Penn's political motivation for calling the police and contacting the Guardian.\n\nMr Penn told the paper: \"I, along with a lot of my neighbours all across London, voted to remain within the EU. That is the extent of my involvement in politics.\"\n\nOn Saturday, Mr Johnson and Jeremy Hunt made their pitches to party members on why they should succeed Theresa May as prime minister.\n\nMr Johnson repeatedly avoided questions about the incident, saying people did not \"want to hear\" about it.\n\nWhen the event moderator Iain Dale accused him of ducking the question, Mr Johnson did not respond directly, instead saying: \"People are entitled to ask me what I want to do for the country.\"\n\nMr Dale was heckled by some in the audience when he pressed the MP on whether he thought a person's private life had any bearing on their ability to be prime minister, leading Mr Johnson to insist: \"Don't boo the great man\".\n\nThe LBC presenter said on Sunday while the audience had clearly become frustrated with his questioning of Mr Johnson on the matter, it was \"my job\" to persist.\n\nHe said: \"There will have been lots of other people in the audience who didn't boo, and who actually did want to hear the answer to that question.\"\n\nMeanwhile, former Tory foreign secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind, who is backing Jeremy Hunt for the party leadership, told the BBC he believed Mr Johnson had made an \"error of judgement\" in refusing to answer Mr Dale's questions.\n\n\"Just saying 'no comment' implies, 'it's none of your business', and it is the business of the public to know why the police have been called to his property,\" he said.\n\nBut Conservative MP Rishi Sunak, who is backing Mr Johnson in the contest, said he believed it was \"clearly a private incident\" after police said everyone was safe and well and no further action was required.\n\nIt was the first of 16 events, or hustings, to choose the next Conservative party leader - and prime minister - following Theresa May's resignation after she failed to get her Brexit deal through Parliament.\n\nShe remains in office until her successor is found.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I believe it's a private matter - I don't think the public are concerned about that.\n\n\"Boris served for eight years as mayor of London, did a brilliant job; he's served as foreign secretary - people know what he's like in office, and that's what's important.\"\n\nBut shadow communities secretary Andrew Gwynne said Mr Johnson was \"completely unsuitable\" to be prime minister.\n\nSpeaking on Sky News, he said: \"In one sense, of course, it is a private matter, but when you're running for public office, when you are wanting to be the prime minister of the UK, then these matters are in the public interest.\n\n\"I've long held the view that Boris Johnson is unsuitable to be prime minister of this country.\"\n\nOn Saturday, Mr Johnson repeatedly avoided questions about the incident as he and Mr Hunt made their pitches to Tory party members on why they should succeed Mrs May as prime minister.\n\nWhen the event moderator, Iain Dale, accused him of ducking the question, Mr Johnson did not respond directly, instead saying: \"People are entitled to ask me what I want to do for the country.\"\n\nMr Dale was heckled by some in the audience when he continued to press the MP, but Mr Johnson later defended his persistence.\n\n\"There will have been lots of other people in the audience who didn't boo, and who actually did want to hear the answer to that question,\" Mr Dale told the BBC.\n\nIt was the first of 16 events, or hustings, to choose the next Conservative party leader - and prime minister - following Mrs May's resignation after she failed to get her Brexit deal through Parliament.\n\nShe remains in office until her successor is found.\n\nConservative Party members will vote for their next leader after an initial list of 10 candidates to replace Mrs May was whittled down to Mr Hunt and Mr Johnson following a series of votes by Tory MPs.\n\nMembers will receive their ballots between 6 and 8 July, with the new leader expected to be announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nCorrection 24 June 2019: A previous version of this article stated Jeremy Hunt wanted Boris Johnson to answer questions about his private life, and was headlined to reflect this. It has been amended to make clear Mr Hunt's demands were for Mr Johnson to explain his policies in full.", "The group pictured before they began their ascent last month\n\nThe bodies of seven climbers who went missing last month have been recovered in the Himalayas, officials say.\n\nA rescue team is searching for the body of an eighth climber, according to Indian officials who spoke to the BBC.\n\nFour Britons, two Americans, an Australian and an Indian made up the group, who had been attempting to climb India's second-highest peak.\n\nThey went missing in a ridge between two glaciers at an altitude of 5,380m (17,650ft) near Nanda Devi last month.\n\nIt is believed the mountain was hit by avalanches when the climbers were trying to scale one of the peaks there.\n\nContact was lost on 26 May, a day before an avalanche hit the 7,816m-high mountain.\n\nThe group was being led by experienced British mountain guide Martin Moran, whose Scotland-based company, Moran Mountain, has run numerous expeditions in the Indian Himalayas.\n\nThe rest of the group were John McLaren, Rupert Whewell and University of York lecturer Richard Payne from the UK; US nationals Anthony Sudekum and Ronald Beimel; Australian Ruth McCance; and Indian guide Chetan Pandey.\n\nTheir bodies were spotted by an Indian rescue mission earlier this month, but attempts to retrieve them were postponed after a helicopter failed multiple times to drop rescuers on the peak.\n\nIndian officials abandoned a mission to retrieve the bodies earlier this month\n\nVK Jogdande, the senior official in Pithoragarh, where the mountain is located, told the BBC a team of 25 climbers belonging to the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) had successfully retrieved seven bodies on Sunday.\n\n\"They have set up a camp there and they have kept the bodies there. They hope to recover the eighth body by tomorrow,\" he said.\n\nMr Jogdande said the climbers would require at least three days to bring the bodies to the base camp.\n\nTwo teams, comprising nearly 50 climbers, porters and medics, belonging to the ITBP and the Indian Mountaineering Foundation (IMF), have travelled to the peak separately to recover the bodies.\n\nThe ITBP team were dropped at the base camp by helicopter, while the volunteer climbers of IMF are walking to the peak.\n\n\"This is the most difficult and challenging mission taken by Indian rescue teams to bring down bodies from the upper reaches of the Himalayas,\" Mr Jogdande said.\n\nHe said the route was littered with dangerous crevasses.\n\nAmit Chowdhury of the IMF said the operation had been risky, and hampered by bad weather.\n\n\"Now they have to decide on how to bring the bodies down,\" he told the BBC. \"[Whether they will] try to build a helipad and bring them down or carry them down is a decision that has to be made.\"\n\nFour other climbers who were part of the group ascending the peak were rescued earlier this month.\n\nThe rescued climbers were Mark Thomas, 44, Ian Wade, 45, Kate Armstrong, 39, and Zachary Quain, 32.\n\nThey were airlifted to safety after being spotted at Munsiyari base camp near Nanda Devi.", "Willie Frazer is a well known loyalist campaigner for victims of republican violence\n\nThe Southern Trust has confirmed it is aware of an image being shared online of victims campaigner Willie Frazer in a hospital bed.\n\nMr Frazer is currently receiving treatment in Craigavon Area Hospital and is understood to be critically ill.\n\nA complaint over the sharing of the image on social media was made to the Trust by Ulster Unionist MLA Doug Beattie.\n\nMr Beattie said the image was \"a terrible invasion of his privacy\".\n\nIn a statement the Trust said: \"We are looking into this matter.\n\n\"To protect the confidentiality and dignity of our patients, we have a policy which states that any photograph of a patient is not allowed to be taken without the prior permission of the Trust.\"\n\nSpeaking to BBC Radio Ulster's Evening Extra, Mr Beattie said he saw the picture on Twitter.\n\n\"It was very clear that this picture had been taken without his permission,\" he said.\n\nMr Beattie said the Trust had replied immediately to his complaint and confirmed it would be looking into it.\n\nWillie Frazer was the founder of Families Acting for Innocent Relatives (Fair), a group set up in 1998 to support victims of republican violence.\n\nHis father Bertie, a part-time member of the Ulster Defence Regiment, was killed in an IRA gun attack in 1975.", "Arabs are increasingly saying they are no longer religious, according to the largest and most in-depth survey undertaken of the Middle East and North Africa.\n\nThe finding is one of a number on how Arabs feel about a wide range of issues, from women's rights and migration to security and sexuality.\n\nMore than 25,000 people were interviewed for the survey - for BBC News Arabic by the Arab Barometer research network - across 10 countries and the Palestinian territories between late 2018 and spring 2019.\n\nHere are some of the results.\n\nSince 2013, the number of people across the region identifying as \"not religious\" has risen from 8% to 13%. The rise is greatest in the under 30s, among whom 18% identify as not religious, according to the research. Only Yemen saw a fall in the category.\n\nMost people across the region supported the right of a woman to become prime minister or president. The exception was Algeria where less than 50% of those questioned agreed that a woman head of state was acceptable.\n\nBut when it comes to domestic life, most - including a majority of women - believe that husbands should always have the final say on family decisions. Only in Morocco did fewer than half the population think a husband should always be the ultimate decision-maker.\n\nAcceptance of homosexuality varies but is low or extremely low across the region. In Lebanon, despite having a reputation for being more socially liberal than its neighbours, the figure is 6%.\n\nAn honour killing is one in which relatives kill a family member, typically a woman, for allegedly bringing dishonour onto the family.\n\nEvery place surveyed put Donald Trump's Middle East policies last when comparing these leaders. By contrast, in seven of the 11 places surveyed, half or more approved of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's approach.\n\nTotals for each country do not always sum to 100 because 'Don't know' and 'Refused to respond' have not been included.\n\nSecurity remains a concern for many in the Middle East and North Africa. When asked which countries posed the biggest threat to their stability and national security, after Israel, the US was identified as the second biggest threat in the region as a whole, and Iran was third.\n\nIn every place questioned, research suggested at least one in five people were considering emigrating. In Sudan, this accounted for half the population.\n\nEconomic reasons were overwhelmingly cited as the driving factor.\n\nThey're not all aiming for Europe Areas where people want to go to.

The project interviewed 25,407 people face-to-face in 10 countries and the Palestinian territories. The Arab Barometer is a research network based at Princeton University. They have been conducting surveys like this since 2006. The 45-minute, largely tablet-based interviews were conducted by researchers with participants in private spaces.\n\nIt is of Arab world opinion, so does not include Iran or Israel, though it does include the Palestinian territories. Most countries in the region are included but several Gulf governments refused full and fair access to the survey. The Kuwait results came in too late to include in the BBC Arabic coverage. Syria could not be included due to the difficulty of access.\n\nFor legal and cultural reasons some countries asked to drop some questions. These exclusions are taken into account when expressing the results, with limitations clearly outlined.\n\nYou can find out more details about the methodology on the Arab Barometer website.", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nEngland progressed to the quarter-finals of the Women's World Cup with a 3-0 victory over an enraged Cameroon side who protested after two VAR decisions went against them.\n\nGoals from Steph Houghton, Ellen White and Alex Greenwood sent England through to face Norway on Thursday, but the fractious game will be remembered for Cameroon's extraordinary reactions to White's goal and a disallowed effort from Ajara Nchout.\n\nThe distraught Cameroon players twice appeared unwilling to restart the match, gathering in a huddle after White's strike was given and remonstrating with the officials further after half-time.\n\nCaptain Houghton struck England's opener after an early backpass gave England an indirect free-kick, before the drama escalated.\n\nStriker White placed in England's second, which was initially ruled out before the video assistant referee deemed White to have been onside, but Cameroon reacted furiously and gestured to suggest the big screen's replays had indicated differently.\n\nThe African side thought they had pulled a goal back after the break through Nchout, but their despair increased when it was disallowed after a VAR review for an extremely tight offside call.\n\nEngland left-back Greenwood then swept in the Lionesses' third to secure a win that saw them reach at least the last eight of the competition for a fifth time, and for the fourth consecutive World Cup.\n• None 'Very entertaining but for the wrong reasons' - the game that had everything\n\nCameroon, who are 43 places below Phil Neville's side in the world rankings and playing in only their second Women's World Cup, began the tie as major underdogs.\n\nThey had reached the last 16 thanks to a 95th-minute winner over New Zealand on 20 June, which saw them progress as one of the four best third-placed sides, but Sunday's drama against England was of a different kind.\n\nThere was an edge to the match early on, with Yvonne Leuko booked for an apparent elbow on England winger Nikita Parris, before Augustine Ejangue appeared to spit on Toni Duggan after the backpass that led to the opener.\n\nCameroon then reacted with despair after White's goal was given by VAR, temporarily refusing to restart play, and some of their players were reportedly in tears in the tunnel at half-time.\n\nBoos and hissing from the stands then followed the decision to disallow Nchout's strike, coupled with widespread protestations from their substitutes.\n\nAnd the first ever competitive meeting between these two sides concluded with a poor challenge by Alexandra Takounda on Houghton, for which the Cameroon player was booked as her team-mates again remonstrated with the referee.\n\nFor England, who reached the semi-finals of their past two major tournaments and are the fourth favourites to lift the title in Lyon on 7 July, the win was another impressive one.\n\nEjangue's backpass to the goalkeeper presented Neville's side with an indirect free-kick, which Duggan touched to Houghton to drill in to the corner from close range, finding a way past all 11 Cameroon players on the line.\n\nThat opener gave England some control of the game and they added to it with White and Greenwood's efforts, while keeping a third consecutive clean sheet.\n\nHowever, there were sloppy moments at the back that will cause Neville concern, especially in the early part of the second half.\n\nKaren Bardsley's misplaced clearance and some subsequent slack marking allowed Nchout to find the net, before her effort was ruled out.\n\nAlexandra Engolo then twice went close after more poor England defending, but the majority of their performance over the 90 minutes was strong.\n\nTaylor scuffed wide late on as they pushed for a fourth goal, as the Lionesses won a fifth straight World Cup game - stretching back to 2015's third-place play-off - for the first time.\n\n'It didn't feel like football' - what they said\n\nEngland boss Phil Neville: \"It didn't feel like football.

Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nSky News has said it will be forced to cancel a debate between the two men vying to be the next Tory leader unless Boris Johnson agrees to take part.\n\nThe broadcaster hoped to be the first to stage a head-to-head debate between Mr Johnson and his rival Jeremy Hunt.\n\nBut it said Mr Johnson had \"so far declined\" its invitation and the event would not go ahead without him.\n\nMr Hunt said it was \"incredibly disappointing\" and risked \"cheating\" the country out of a \"proper contest\".\n\nHe said the next prime minister would not have the popular mandate to take difficult decisions on Brexit and other issues if they were not prepared to face scrutiny now.\n\nMr Johnson has faced three days of questions over his private life after a row with his partner Carrie Symonds.\n\nThe former foreign secretary has declined to comment on the nature of the argument in Ms Symonds' London home, which led to the police being called early on Friday morning.\n\nHe has also been accused of avoiding media scrutiny more generally, particularly on his Brexit policy.\n\nAllies of Mr Johnson have stepped up their criticism of Ms Symonds' neighbours, Tom Penn and Eve Leigh, for recording part of the argument and sharing it with the Guardian newspaper, suggesting their actions were \"politically motivated\".\n\nJacob Rees-Mogg, the leader of the European Research Group of Brexiteers, described the couple as \"Corbynista curtain twitchers\".\n\nThe couple have insisted they were motivated solely by concerns for the welfare of Ms Symonds after reportedly hearing raised voices and plates and glasses being smashed.\n\nMr Johnson remains the frontrunner in the contest to succeed Theresa May, with 160,000 or so Conservative Party members choosing their next leader by the end of July.\n\nMr Hunt has challenged him to a series of live TV debates over the next 10 days.\n\nBut Sky's planned debate on Tuesday now looks unlikely to go ahead.\n\n\"Jeremy Hunt has agreed to take part, but Boris Johnson has so far declined the invitation,\" the broadcaster said in a statement.\n\n\"We stand ready to host a debate tomorrow evening if both candidates make themselves available,\" it said. \"Without both candidates, tomorrow's debate will not take place.\"\n\nMr Johnson has agreed to take part in a one-on-one debate with Mr Hunt on ITV on 9 July, but by then voting papers will already have been sent to party members.\n\nThe two men are also taking part in a series of hustings for Tory members across the UK.\n\nMr Johnson and Mr Hunt took part in a five-way debate earlier in the leadership contest on the BBC last week, but Mr Johnson refused to join a similar event on Channel 4.\n\nWriting in the Times on Monday, Mr Hunt urged his rival not to be \"a coward\" and to take part in the Sky debate. He insisted, though, he was \"not interested\" in Mr Johnson's private life.\n\nHe said Mr Johnson must explain how he could guarantee the UK would leave the EU on 31 October if Parliament voted to stop a no-deal Brexit, as it did in a non-binding vote in March.\n\nThe response from Team Hunt is to call him \"bottler Boris\" - to accuse his campaign of being complacent and not trusting their man to turn up.\n\nTeam Hunt will also be pretty annoyed because they wanted this opportunity to boost their man's profile and get him some name recognition.\n\nThere's no getting away from the fact that he's just not as well-known as his rival.\n\nFor their part, Mr Johnson's supporters say he's taking part in 16 hustings events across the country and that is scrutiny enough.\n\nResponding to the Sky announcement, Mr Hunt suggested his rival was behaving like Theresa May during the 2017 general election, when she avoided TV debates and even sent another minister in her place.\n\n\"Frankly, the Conservative Party will start to feel cheated of having a proper leadership campaign if the frontrunner isn't prepared to subject himself to the scrutiny of TV debates,\" he said.\n\n\"There's only two weeks now before postal ballots arrive, and we owe the Conservative Party, we owe the country, a proper contest.\"\n\nIn his own newspaper column on Monday in the Daily Telegraph, Mr Johnson said the UK would face a \"democratic explosion\" if it did not leave the EU by 31 October.\n\n\"This time we are not going to bottle it. We are not going to fail,\" he wrote.\n\nHis team insist he is facing scrutiny via a series of leadership hustings in front of Conservative Party members taking place over the coming weeks.

He encouraged her to try writing fiction and adapted many of her novels for screen.\n\nAs the fashion editor of Good Housekeeping magazine and a contributing editor for Cosmopolitan, Krantz's novels clearly drew on personal experience.\n\nThe success of Krantz's books allowed her to lead the glamorous, jet-setting life of her protagonists\n\nThe characters are a feminist contradiction - young, beautiful, sexually assertive women with successful careers and top-end wardrobes.\n\nBut ultimately their goal is to find a handsome man who can offer them steamy sex - which Krantz wrote about in graphic detail.\n\n\"If you're going to write a good erotic scene, you have to go into details,\" Krantz told the Los Angeles Times in 1990. \"I don't believe in thunder and lightning and fireworks exploding.

A few weeks later, he went to France for the commemorative ceremonies marking the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings.\n\nTo his surprise, journalists had managed to track her down.", "The Brexit Party raised more than £2m from small donors during the campaign\n\nThe Brexit Party's online funding system left it open to \"a high and on-going risk\" of impermissible donations, the Electoral Commission says.\n\nSums of more than £500 must be registered and come from the UK under electoral law.\n\nConcerns were raised during the European election campaign the party could allow multiple donations - potentially from outside the UK - to circumvent the rules.\n\nThe party said no rules were broken.\n\nIt also said it would \"embrace\" the recommendations on checking donors.\n\nUnder UK law, donations of £500 or above must be made by a \"permissible donor\" - someone who is listed on the electoral register or a company registered in the UK.\n\nAmounts below that do not have to be declared, but some critics - among them ex-PM Gordon Brown - have said there is no way of telling whether those smaller amounts come from British or foreign sources, and therefore the system may be being abused.\n\nThe Brexit Party topped the polls at last month's European elections.\n\nDuring the campaign, it said donations of £25 or less had accounted for 90% of its total funding. It raised more than £2m from small donors, thousands of whom paid £25 each to become registered supporters.\n\nBut Mr Brown suggested the party was getting round the declaration rules by accepting multiple \"untraceable\" donations directly online.\n\nPolitical parties have 30 days to return donations if they are unsure of their origin.\n\nTo date, the Brexit Party has handed back one donation, of £1,000, as the party could not identify whether it was from a permissible source.\n\nThe Electoral Commission said it had made the party aware of its \"legal responsibilities\".\n\nIt was \"legitimate\" for any political party to adopt a fundraising strategy focused on raising small sums through online payment systems, including PayPal, it said.\n\nBut it said there was a legal duty on parties to check every payment they obtained online to ascertain the source of the donation and \"not to accept any that they are not entitled to\".\n\nParties should request \"as much information as possible\" to ensure all money was from a permissible source, it said.\n\nIn a statement, it said it had concluded that the \"fundraising structure adopted by the party leaves it open to a high and ongoing risk of receiving and accepting impermissible donations\".\n\nThe watchdog's director of regulation, Louise Edwards, said it had made \"specific recommendations to the party that will support it to meet its legal responsibilities when it comes to receiving funds\".\n\n\"Should it fail to meet those responsibilities, this will be considered in line with our enforcement policy,\" she added.\n\nIn response, the party said the watchdog's recommendations were \"helpful\" and it would embrace them \"as soon as practicable and possible\".\n\n\"They haven't found any examples of infringement of Electoral Commission rules,\" a spokesman said. \"We trust that the Electoral Commission have been applying the same oversight and rigour to the other political parties and their fundraising.\"\n\nDuring the campaign, the party insisted all of its donations were above board and it had made clear on its website that people should not attempt to give money unless they were on the electoral roll or eligible to vote.\n\nBoth the Labour and Conservative parties also have the option to donate via PayPal on their websites.\n\nThe Electoral Commission will, in August, publish details of larger donations, of £7,500 and over, given to The Brexit Party and other parties during the election campaign.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Mr Harper said his \"instinct\" was to oppose it while Mr Stewart - despite saying he was \"wholly supportive\" of the idea at his campaign launch in London - later tweeted that he would not be voting for it.\n\nBut Dominic Raab and Esther McVey have both said they would consider shutting down Parliament early - proroguing - in order to drive through no deal.\n\nLeaving on a no-deal basis - without any agreement on the shape of the future relationship between the UK and EU - could lead to significant disruption.\n\nThe EU has previously said border checks would have to be brought in, affecting things like exports and travel and creating uncertainty around the rights of UK citizens living in the EU and vice-versa.\n\nThe government normally controls business in the Commons - but MPs have previously seized control to legislate in favour of extending the Brexit process.\n\nLabour's shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir said the motion was a \"safety valve\" designed to ensure Parliament \"cannot be locked out of the Brexit process\" in the coming months.\n\nIt would allow Parliament to push back against a new prime minister \"foolish enough\" to pursue a no-deal Brexit without MPs' consent.\n\nThat was especially important, Sir Keir argued, because the Tory leadership contest had \"become an arms race to promise the most damaging form of Brexit\".\n\nMr Barclay, though, said the motion was a \"blind motion\" because it did not specify the legislation that would be introduced under its terms.\n\nLabour had previously accused ministers of backing a \"blind Brexit\" because the future relationship was not spelled out in the withdrawal agreement - but this motion was guilty of the same approach, he said.\n\nHe argued it would be a \"fundamental change\" to the way the House operated and therefore should be opposed.\n\nThe motion has cross-party backing, including from one Tory MP - Sir Oliver Letwin - who is supporting Michael Gove in the leadership contest.\n\nIt has been signed by Jeremy Corbyn, SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford, Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable, Change UK leader Anna Soubry, Plaid Cymru Westminster leader Liz Saville-Roberts and former Green Party leader Caroline Lucas.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

But will it work?\n\nIt's not a straight vote for or against a no-deal Brexit - that would not change the fact that it is written in law and agreed with the EU that Brexit will happen on 31 October.\n\nThink of this plan not as a knockout blow in a boxing match, but the first of a complicated sequence of moves in a chess game.\n\nLabour want to pull off something similar to what happened in March, when MPs took control of parliamentary time to force the government to request an extension to the Brexit process from the EU.\n\nStep one is seizing control of business in the House of Commons, and that's clearly the plan this time around.\n\nBeyond that, the details aren't clear.\n\nCompelling the new prime minister to ask the EU to delay Brexit further is the most likely option. But the answer of course, might be \"no\".\n\nThe default position in law is that the UK will leave the EU on 31 October - and if nothing changes, Brexit will happen regardless of whether there is a deal or not.\n\nMPs wanting to stop a new PM leaving without a deal do however have a number of options at their disposal.\n\nOne would be to pass legislation requiring the government to seek an extension to the UK's membership. The EU would have to agree to an extension for it to be granted.\n\nHowever, this would first require MPs to seize control of the parliamentary agenda, as Labour is attempting.\n\nAnother would be to use a vote of no confidence to bring down a government committed to pursuing a no-deal exit.\n\nMPs could also use motions or political pressure to try and force the government into changing course.\n\nWhat questions do you have about Brexit?\n\nUse this form to ask your question:\n\nIf you are reading this page and can't see the form you will need to visit the mobile version of the BBC website to submit your question.", "OK Computer, released in 1997, is regularly rated amongst the best rock albums of all time\n\nRadiohead have scuppered a blackmail attempt by releasing 18 hours of music recorded during the making of their classic album OK Computer.\n\nTapes from the sessions were allegedly stolen last week, with hackers demanding $150,000 for their return.\n\nInstead, the band released the tapes in full, with profits going to climate crisis activists Extinction Rebellion.\n\n\"For £18 you can find out if we should have paid that ransom,\" said guitarist Jonny Greenwood in a statement.\n\nReleased in 1997, OK Computer is often called Radiohead's masterpiece - marking a huge sonic leap forward from its equally-beloved predecessor The Bends.\n\nThe sessions reveal the painstaking work that went into the record, as the Oxfordshire band took up residency in St Catherine's Court - actress Jane Seymour's romantic manor house in Somerset.\n\nAmong the treasures in the collection are a 12-minute version of Paranoid Android, Thom Yorke's demo recording of Karma Police and dozens of unreleased or unfinished songs.\n\nThe first disc opens with an embryonic version of Exit Music, then called Poison, with alternative lyrics.\n\nThis YouTube post cannot be displayed in your browser.

[But] I think we subconsciously killed it because if OK Computer had been like a Jagged Little Pill, like Alanis Morisette, it would have killed us.\"\n\nAlthough the song eventually made it onto a deluxe edition of OK Computer, fans have claimed an alternate take from the leaked sessions is \"probably the definitive version\".\n\n\"When the band said they didn't release it because they thought they had another Creep-success level song, I wouldn't believe them off the [previously-released] version,\" wrote one Reddit user. \"But this version I could definitely see being a big radio tune. Reminds me a lot of Bitter Sweet Symphony.\"\n\n\"Lift could have easily been the definitive Radiohead song in an alternate reality,\" added another poster. \"It is wonderful as hell.\"\n\nThe source of the leak is unknown, but Greenwood said the music originated from singer Thom Yorke's \"minidisc archive\" of the recording sessions, a digital copy of which is thought to have been stolen last week.\n\nThe existence of the recording sessions was first noted on fan sites last week, and leaked in full on Friday.\n\nBefore that, the person in possession of the music was allegedly selling individual tracks for sums between $50 (for a live recording) and $800 (for a full-band studio recording), or the entire archive for $150,000.\n\n\"Instead of complaining - much - or ignoring it, we're releasing all 18 hours on Bandcamp in aid of Extinction Rebellion,\" said Greenwood in a statement.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

I asked her why she had to be anonymous.\n\n\"Because it's illegal,\" she said. \"Because I don't want to be stopped from what I'm doing, because if I am then a lot of people are going to be left in the lurch.\"\n\nThe \"people\" she is referring to are generally sick - they are adults with fibromyalgia or diabetes, and children with epilepsy.\n\nI flew to Spain to meet Marie after a tip-off from a family I met in Scotland.\n\nThe THC compound is extracted from the cannabis bud\n\nI was investigating medical cannabis and filming with families of children with drug-resistant epilepsy who were keen to try the medicine.\n\nOne family I met had been dosing their child with a strain which contained THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive part of the plant.\n\nThere is some evidence that cannabis medicines containing THC can help with epilepsy and reduce seizures. But there is also evidence it can cause seizures.\n\nLegally, doctors can now prescribe cannabis oil products in the UK but they are refusing to, saying it needs to be trialled properly to show that it is safe and that it works.\n\nMarie and the location of her cannabis oil operation need to remain anonymous\n\nIn response, some people have been going to countries such as the Netherlands to get medical cannabis on prescription while others have turned to the black market.\n\nExperts warn this is a bad idea because their products are not pharmaceutical grade.\n\nThey say there can be a \"very real danger\" because users do not know exactly what is in the dealer's products.\n\nThe family I met in Scotland felt they had a black market dealer who actually wanted to help people - that was Marie.\n\nCCTV cameras are in operation to protect the site\n\nMarie told me she makes the oils because she had used cannabis herself for a medical condition and was sick of buying from street dealers.\n\n\"It was awful,\" she says. \"But it was out of necessity, not because I'm a hardened criminal. I kept getting ripped off by them and so I decided to grow it myself.\"\n\nHer illicit activities soon brought the attention of the police in Britain. By then, she had met a man and fallen in love. It took her to Spain.\n\nShe says: \"I made a pact there and then that I would help other people so that they wouldn't be ripped off as I had been. And that's how it all started.\"\n\nThe cannabis is grown in a small white-washed building up a narrow lane\n\nI met Marie in a bar west of Alicante, then she drove me into the mountains along dusty tracks lined with almond trees.\n\nThe first stop is where they grow the plants. A small white-washed building up a narrow lane. There are bars on the windows and doors and CCTV cameras. Other criminals sometimes come and steal the product, she tells me.\n\nThe door does not open far before we are hit with the sweet, pungent and unmistakeable aroma of cannabis.\n\nWe go from room to room. The plants are in various stages of growth. Once the perfect size and age, the buds will be picked and dried and transported to the lab, which is where she takes me next.\n\nThe laboratory where Marie makes the cannabis oils\n\nWe head north, back through the fields of almonds and towards the hills. Then we lurch along the final stretch of a pot-holed dusty track and stop outside a small crop of outbuildings in the middle of nowhere. There is the obligatory metal fencing, the big barking guard dog and cameras - but once we are through the gates, everything changes.\n\nThere, sitting incongruously in the arid Spanish plains, is a laboratory.\n\nOnce inside, the air conditioning does much to dampen the heat, but the pungent aroma of cannabis remains.\n\nMarie tells me she is going to make up some oil, so I can see how easy the process is. I'm not going to detail it here, but she is right - the process does look pretty simple.\n\nThe larger syringes sell for hundreds of euros\n\nThe larger syringes containing the oil can sell for several hundred euros but Marie tells me that if families really need it and do not have the money, she will give it to them for much less, sometimes for nothing.\n\nMarie says this is part of her idea of \"paying it forward\", but what she really wants is to teach people how to do it themselves.\n\nShe says: \"I want people to be self-sufficient so that we don't have to break the law on their behalf.\n\n\"Or I want the government in the UK to pull their fingers out and actually implement a system quickly. There isn't time for people to be waiting with dying children.\n\n\"I want them (the government) to implement a system quickly whereby people have access to quality medication, that they know what's in it and dosing programmes.\"\n\nMarie says there has been an increase in people asking for THC meds since the UK government changed the rules on prescriptions last year.\n\nShe says people think that if the government is saying legal medical cannabis is OK, then it can't be as bad as they used to say it was.\n\nHowever, Marie also says that she wants to stop running her cannabis oil operation.\n\n\"I don't want the stress, I don't want the responsibility, I don't want people calling me at two o'clock in the morning because they've run out of oil,\" she said.\n\n\"It's just way too much responsibility. I won't have people crying at me because their child's had 40 seizures.\"\n\nMarie says she has dozens of customers in the UK. Does she worry she is selling to desperate people, often with very sick children?\n\nShe admits that she has \"no control\" over what happens to the product once she sends it to people.\n\n\"We do the best that we can to provide a quality product,\" she says.\n\nThe oils are sent diluted, she says, with recommendations to be very careful with dosing protocols.\n\n\"But we try not to take too much part of what goes on from there because I don't want that responsibility,\" she says.\n\n\"My bit is to help them, but I would rather parents produce their own plants and made their own oil under guidance rather than me having to be part of that process.\"", "The threatened evictions sparked protests in Glasgow last summer\n\nHundreds of asylum seekers are facing eviction after a housing provider announced it was to restart a lock-changing programme.\n\nSerco first announced that it was issuing eviction notices to tenants who had been denied the right to remain in the UK last July.\n\nIt provides free housing to about 300 people in Glasgow.\n\nGlasgow City Council's leader Susan Aitken has warned the UK government the move could lead to \"mass destitution\".\n\nAnd campaigners have raised fears that vulnerable people could be \"man-handled\" into the street.\n\nIn April a legal challenge arguing that evictions would be unlawful without a court order was dismissed by a judge.\n\nGovan Law Centre is supporting an appeal of the decision and has called for the evictions to be suspended in the meantime.\n\nEarlier this year it was also revealed that Serco had lost the Home Office contract in Scotland, which will be delivered by Mears Group after September.\n\nThe company will now restart the lock-change programme and return any housing it rents in the city to its owners at the end of the leases.\n\nIt said it was \"not a step we have taken lightly\".\n\nSerco claims it costs about £1m a year to support people who remain in their properties after having their asylum claims rejected.\n\nJulia Rogers, Serco's managing director for immigration, said: \"We very much regret the distress this will cause, but hope that it will be understood that we cannot be expected to provide free housing indefinitely to hundreds of people who have been unsuccessful in their asylum claims and most of whom have no legal right to remain in the UK.\n\n\"We call on all parties to work with us constructively to help people navigate their way through to a new future beyond the asylum system, and we will be making funds available to charities to support this work.\"\n\nShe told BBC Scotland that Serco had a responsibility to hand the vacant properties back to their owners before the end of September.\n\n\"If we were to wait, that could be a worse situation. We now have four months in which to manage that situation as best as we possibly can,\" she added\n\nSerco's Julia Rogers said the firm had four months to get the properties ready to hand back to their owners\n\nSerco said no more than 30 people would be issued with lock-changing notices in any one week, and the latest programme would be rolled out over the next four months.\n\nAlmost all are single adult men and women. Serco said \"no children will be left without housing\".\n\nThe company said tenants would be given at least 21 days' notice to make alternative arrangements.\n\nIt added that it would make up to £150,000 available to charities supporting homeless people in Glasgow.\n\nCharity Positive Action in Housing said that since April asylum seekers had been receiving letters telling them to leave their accommodation immediately.\n\nIts director Robina Qureshi said they have been \"intimidated\" into leaving their homes.\n\nShe raised concerns about how the evictions would work and warned that it could lead to 300 people being made \"totally destitute\" over the next two and half months.\n\n\"Are people going to be dragged out with their belongings dumped in the street?\" she said.\n\n\"Anecdotal evidence tells us that vulnerable, frightened people, both men and women, will be man handled onto the street.\"\n\nShe advised people to refuse to leave the properties.\n\nSerco has sent out letters to some people giving them notice to leave their accommodation\n\nSerco's original plans to change the locks of tenants were met with protests in Glasgow last summer.\n\nGlasgow City Council leader Susan Aitken wrote to Home Secretary Sajid Javid warning that the move would \"trigger a humanitarian crisis in Glasgow\".\n\nMs Aitken has now written to UK Immigration Minister Caroline Nokes about the \"deeply concerning development\".\n\nShe added: \"In order for Glasgow City Council to provide support, I would have to instruct officers to break the law.\n\n\"It is a sorry and utterly unacceptable state of affairs when a UK government contract legally obliges its contractor to force people from their homes and leave public servants to choose between either breaking the law or allowing mass destitution on the streets of our city.\"\n\nMs Aitken urged minister to intervene to prevent the planned evictions.\n\n\"If there is no satisfactory resolution to this matter, one which accepts the inevitable consequences of lock changes and prevents them occurring, then Glasgow will have no alternative but to consider what, if any, future it can have in an asylum dispersal programme which allows for the imposition of such inhumane practices, against the express wishes and values not only of Glasgow City Council, but also of the citizens and communities we serve.,\" she added.\n\nA spokesman for the Home Office said took the wellbeing of asylum seekers and the communities in which they live \"extremely seriously\".\n\nHe added: \"We have and will continue to work closely with local authorities and partners to ensure that those who have no right to be in the UK leave their accommodation in a safe and secure way.\n\n\"We have been working with Glasgow City Council and other partners to ensure those at risk of potential eviction have the necessary advice on their options.\"", "Tanya O'Connell said the lack of water delayed her taking medication while she

There are many types, and it can start at any age.\n\nAround 3% of people with epilepsy are photosensitive, which means their seizures are triggered by flashing or flickering lights, or patterns.\n\nThe Health and Safety Executive recommends strobe lighting should be kept to a maximum of four hertz (four flashes per second) in clubs and at public events.\n\nThe researchers studied electronic dance music festivals because they often use strobe lighting.\n\nThey looked at data on people who needed medical care among the 400,000 visitors to 28 day and night-time dance music festivals across the Netherlands in 2015. The figures included 241,000 people who were exposed to strobe lights at night-time festivals.\n\nThirty people at night-time events with strobe lighting had a seizure, compared with nine attending daytime events.\n\nThe team, led by Newel Salet of the VU Medical Centre in Amsterdam, writing in BMJ Open, said other factors could increase the risk of seizures.\n\nBut they added: \"Regardless of whether stroboscopic lights are solely responsible or whether sleep deprivation and/or substance abuse also play a role, the appropriate interpretation is that large [electronic dance music] festivals, especially during the night-time, probably cause at least a number of people per event to suffer epileptic seizures.\"\n\nThey advise anyone with photosensitive epilepsy to either avoid such events or to take precautionary measures, such as getting enough sleep and not taking drugs, not standing close to the stage, and leaving quickly if they experience any \"aura\" effects.\n\nMr Salet told BBC News: \"If a person has no predisposition for epilepsy, then factors like strobe lighting will not have any effect. However, most people are unaware of this predisposition they might have: more than a couple of cases explicitly reported this to be the first time they experienced an epileptic fit.\"\n\nClare Pelham, chief executive at the Epilepsy Society, said: \"The festival season has become something of a rite of passage. We would encourage festival organisers to at least warn visitors that they are using strobe lighting so that festival-goers can decide whether it will be safe for them to attend before buying their tickets.\n\n\"But it would be really life-affirming, in these days when we aspire to inclusivity, if organisers could do the responsible thing and keep the strobe lighting at a rate that should not pose a risk.\n\n\"The festival season is all about having a good time, but that should include everyone together, in a safe and supportive environment.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Conversely, eight Labour MPs - mostly Eurosceptics or MPs in constituencies which voted Leave at the referendum - defied party instructions and voted against it.\n\nA key factor for the government was the support of Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionists, who have voted against Theresa May during previous Brexit votes.\n\nNo deal would mean the UK leaving the EU without any agreement about the \"divorce\" process.\n\nOvernight, the country would be out of the single market, customs union and institutions such as the European Court of Justice and Europol.\n\nThere are fears about widespread disruption in such an event - to trade, travel and the functioning of the Irish border, in particular.\n\nThe opposition said the Commons defeat was disappointing, but it still believed there was a majority in the Commons against a no deal and it remained \"determined to win this fight\".\n\n\"There will be other procedural mechanisms we can use,\" shadow Brexit Secretary Sir Keir Starmer said. \"We are already looking at what those other opportunities will be.\"\n\nNo 10 said giving MPs a \"blank cheque\" to dictate Brexit policy would have set a troubling precedent.\n\nThe UK was originally supposed to leave the EU on 29 March.\n\nBut the EU decided on a seven-month extension after MPs rejected the terms of withdrawal on three occasions.\n\nOpponents of a no-deal exit are concerned that Theresa May's successor as prime minister could seek to take the UK out of the EU without parliamentary approval for such an outcome.\n\nTory leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson and several of his rivals have said the UK must leave the EU by the revised date, whether a deal is passed or not.\n\nWednesday's motion - supported by the Lib Dems, the SNP and Plaid Cymru, as well as some Conservatives, would not, by itself, have ruled out a no deal.\n\nHowever, its supporters hoped to start a process on 25 June which could culminate with Parliament blocking the UK leaving without an agreement - in effect, tying the next prime minister's hands.\n\nBacking the motion, Conservative ex-minister Sir Oliver Letwin said the case for ensuring Parliament had a \"decisive vote\" on the next PM's Brexit plan ahead of the 31 October deadline transcended party politics.\n\nGiven that leaving without a deal remains the default legal position, he said it was \"perfectly possible\" for the next PM to usher in a no-deal exit by \"simply doing nothing\" at all.\n\nTory Remain supporter and former Attorney General Dominic Grieve said the motion was the \"last sensible opportunity\" to stop no deal.\n\nHe added that in the future, if necessary, he would support efforts to bring down a Conservative government in a vote of no confidence if it was the only way to block such an outcome.\n\nBut veteran Eurosceptic Conservative Sir Bill Cash said it was a \"phantom motion\" which paved the way for \"government by Parliament\".\n\n\"It just simply opens the door for any bill of any kind to take precedence over government business,\" he told by MPs. \"It is inconceivable as a matter of constitutional convention.\"\n\nAfter the defeat, the deputy leader of the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson, accused the Conservatives of \"putting party loyalty ahead of national interest\".\n\nThis is not the first time that MPs have attempted to seize control of the Commons order paper in order to shift government policy on Brexit.\n\nMPs voted in March to oblige Mrs May to seek a Brexit delay from the EU.\n\nBut efforts by Sir Oliver and others to come up with an alternative Brexit plan failed in April after MPs rejected all the options in a series of indicative votes.", "Dominic Raab says leadership candidates should be able to \"hold their nerve\" in a TV debate.\n\nThe former Brexit secretary made it through the first round of the Tory leadership contest in fourth place with 27 votes and said he had a \"strong base to build on\".\n\nBut he said the candidates needed to have a \"proper debate on the vision for the country\".\n\nHe told the BBC: \"There are a lot of candidates with a lot to offer but we are right at the beginning of this race.\n\n\"We haven’t really tested the visions, the ideas, the policies of all of the candidates, and I think the debates coming up… are a great opportunity to test the views.\n\n\"There is many a slip between a cup and the lip.\"\n\nMr Raab said the last leadership contest, that saw Theresa May take power, was a \"very quick coronation\", but \"once the adrenaline of the first froth and frenzy of this contest ebbs a little bit [you can] have a proper contest on the substance and the vision\".\n\nAnd what would he say to anyone considering not taking part in the TV debates?\n\n\"If you can't hold your nerve and take the heat of a leadership contest, what chance [do you have] under the glare of the light in Brussels?\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

He was vindicated, leaving the lethal Starc to bowl Amir and Glenn Maxwell to end the match with a direct-hit run-out of Sarfaraz.\n• None World Cup fixtures & results - who plays who, where and when\n• None World Cup table and stats - who's on course for the semi-finals?\n• None Watch the best of the action again as Australia edge past Pakistan\n\nAmir's performance with ball was 'astonishing' - what they said\n\nFormer England batsman Michael Vaughan on TMS: \"We have seen some wonderful bowling in the tournament but that was an exhibition from Mohammad Amir.

It wasn't until after Nelson Mandela's release from prison that a unified national team were formed for the women of South Africa.\n\nEllis was called up for the trials in 1993, at the age of 30, and was made vice-captain - later wearing the armband full-time. She scored a hat-trick on her debut in a 14-0 win over Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland).\n\nBut on her way back from that match in Johannesburg, the team bus broke down. Ellis couldn't make it back in time for a late shift, working at a meat-packing market, and she was fired.\n\n\"For three years I was out of work, just doing odd jobs here and there,\" said Ellis. \"It was tough but I was living my dream.\n\n\"Eventually, I got a new job and I played in the national team until I was 39. I had worked at a meat market. I made spices and made sure there was enough stock.\n\n\"I also had that door sales job in South Africa that many people have. It's where you walk for miles and miles and try to sell door-to-door. At the end of the day you don't sell anything and just come back home.\"\n\nUnemployment was a challenge but Ellis had already fought off bigger issues during her football career - gender stereotyping.\n\n\"I remember my first proper game. I was a substitute. My dad was the only supporter on the field,\" said Ellis. \"I came on and scored a goal and we won 1-0.\n\n\"Many people back then didn't think it was right for girls to play football. People would say I wanted to be a boy but I just loved football. I had the support of my parents and that for me was important. Many kids don't have that.\"\n\nEllis was just 15 at the time, but a week later she was forced to undress in front of her team-mates to \"prove\" she was a girl who simply had incredible talent.\n\n\"I was flat-chested and short-haired,\" said Ellis. \"They said a girl couldn't play football like that. My dad said 'pull down your pants'. I did and then I just carried on playing.\"\n\nApartheid affected every aspect of life in South Africa from 1948 to the early '90s. Black citizens struggled against a political system enforcing a racial hierarchy.\n\nEllis' family were among those who struggled before benefiting from the movement led by Mandela.\n\nHer father, an ever-present during Ellis' football career, supported and encouraged her love of the game.\n\n\"My father had the belief that I could go, do and be whatever I wanted to be,\" said Ellis. \"So I went and played my football. At times, there were certain places we couldn't go to. But we knew the country was changing and we just carried on and played our sport for the love of it.\n\n\"When Mandela was released, we then had a unified team. I came for trials and the friends that I made back then in 1993 are some of my greatest friends now. We still talk every day. That is what football has done for me.\n\n\"In every individual's life you have setbacks and challenges but it is how you deal with them. I have never been a quitter. I'm not a perfectionist but I always want to do the best and be my best.\"\n\nEven after Ellis had achieved her dream - representing her country - she faced years of adversity thanks to unemployment. Now, she says, the sport has \"evolved\" and her team are given different opportunities.\n\n\"When I played in the national team, 90% of the players were unemployed,\" said Ellis. \"Now, 90% of the players have degrees, are still studying, are pundits on national television or ambassadors for huge organisations. Football has really opened a lot of doors.\"\n\nIn 2018, South Africa, then ranked 50th in the world, came runners-up in the Africa Women Cup of Nations to 11-time champions Nigeria.\n\nDespite losing the final in a penalty shootout, South Africa secured their qualification for the World Cup and it was considered one of the greatest days in the history of their national team.\n\nEllis said even in her \"wildest imagination\" she could not have foreseen South Africa competing at a World Cup and the thought of it still gives her \"goosebumps\".\n\n\"As a player, I never had those opportunities. For anybody the ultimate is the World Cup,\" said Ellis. \"Nobody gave us a chance when we played Nigeria in the Afcon. We are definitely underdogs. It is our first time at the World Cup and it's not an easy draw.\n\n\"I think the support that has come from our federation has been fantastic. Without them, this wouldn't be possible. We needed a proper federation to qualify for the World Cup and now... Yay!\n\n\"We want people to be able to say 'wow'. We want to make sure we are never forgotten. Can you imagine if we do well? What will happen next?\"\n\nThe \"magnitude of what the team had done\" had not been realised until South Africa returned home to face the Netherlands in a friendly in January and were given an incredible reception by their supporters.\n\nAnd their achievements had not gone unnoticed outside of the sport.\n\n\"If you look at the messages of support on social media, it has been amazing,\" said Ellis. \"Even the president called us when we were in Ghana [in the Afcon] to wish us good luck for the final.\n\n\"In parliament, I got mentioned in the president's speech.

He did it that night and I don't think he will come back from it. Finished. Ask any top trainer who has been around the sport a lifetime. When he got to the ring I saw he didn't want to be there.\"\n\nFury's Las Vegas contest with Schwarz will air on 5 Live in the early hours of Sunday morning in the UK.\n\nThe bout comes two weeks after Ruiz ripped up the heavyweight division's plot lines by inflicting a first career defeat on Joshua, who had previously made Fury an offer to fight.\n\n\"Everybody thought that man could beat me,\" Fury added. \"In what world could he ever beat me? What were people seeing? I don't know what people were looking at as I don't know in what world he could have beaten me.\"\n\nFury this week said he respects Joshua and regards him as \"a winner in life\" for how he has achieved sporting success after brushes with the law in his youth.\n\nBut Joshua's loss has halted talk of any immediate fight with Fury or WBC champion Deontay Wilder as the 2012 Olympic champion is now intent on fulfilling a rematch with Ruiz.\n\nFury, who battled mental health and drug issues before returning to the sport after a 31-month spell of inactivity in June of 2018, believes Joshua will lose the repeat fixture.\n\nIn referencing Ruiz's much publicised fleshy physique and his own win over Wladimir Klitschko in 2015, Fury told 5 Live Boxing's Mike Costello and Steve Bunce that such results prove \"body types mean nothing in boxing.\"\n\n\"Physically Joshua could out-train everyone,\" added Fury, 30. \"He would break every heart monitor, has probably worn out every treadmill in the gym, smashes the bag, it's all very unimportant.\n\n\"Boxing isn't rocket science and today people are trying to make it a scientist thing. If you can fight you can fight if you can't you can forget about it. You can eat every protein bar in the world, when you get banged on the chin and panic, it don't really help you much.\n\n\"People who don't understand boxing look at a fat man and think he can't fight. The best feeling I got from it was the two best conditioned fighters in the last 20 years have been Klitschko and Joshua and they both got done by two fat men.\"\n\nUndefeated Fury is a 1-25 favourite against Schwarz in his first fight since his epic draw with Wilder in December, where many ringside observers felt he should have been given a points victory despite being floored twice.\n\nBoth his and Wilder's team have loosely agreed a rematch in 2020, though a venue has not been agreed and financial terms have not been negotiated.\n\nFury, who lost around 10st in the 12 months leading up to the contest, says his relationship with Wilder is now strained.\n\n\"If I was a match fit fighter and some fat man comes off drugs and alcohol and done that to me I'd never look at the sport again,\" said Fury.\n\n\"Does Deontay Wilder have anything to bother me? Nothing at all.\n\n\"I've been hurt 1,000 times but Wilder didn't hurt me once. He hit me in the back of the head, scrambled my senses and the last knockdown was a touch of sleep but didn't hurt me. Those same punches that caught me then are not going to touch me when I'm match fit.\n\n\"They thought I'd be half the man. I had to con them to think I was only there for a pay day. I couldn't be at my best but still beat him at nowhere near my best. He isn't man enough to face me anymore or speak to me. He used to text me back and forth. I've text him five times and he hasn't replied once.\"\n\nSchwarz, 25, is unbeaten in 24 fights and impressed 5 Live's Bunce with his movement when he and Fury performed open workouts at the MGM Grand Hotel on Tuesday.\n\nSaturday's contest will be Fury's first on his lucrative deal with ESPN and his team were keen to pick a bout which would lend itself to showcasing their fighter on his new broadcast platform.\n\nGermany's Schwarz has therefore been largely written off but Fury warned his opponent has been training while he has shouldered the majority of the media commitments both in the UK and US.\n\n\"Any man who is unbeaten and his full life changes with a win, I don't take that as an easy fight,\" added Fury.\n\n\"All it takes is one or two punches. That is all it takes. If you're 12 rounds ahead and get knocked out it's pointless.

I asked her why she had to be anonymous.\n\n\"Because it's illegal,\" she said. \"Because I don't want to be stopped from what I'm doing, because if I am then a lot of people are going to be left in the lurch.\"\n\nThe \"people\" she is referring to are generally sick - they are adults with fibromyalgia or diabetes, and children with epilepsy.\n\nI flew to Spain to meet Marie after a tip-off from a family I met in Scotland.\n\nThe THC compound is extracted from the cannabis bud\n\nI was investigating medical cannabis and filming with families of children with drug-resistant epilepsy who were keen to try the medicine.\n\nOne family I met had been dosing their child with a strain which contained THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive part of the plant.\n\nThere is some evidence that cannabis medicines containing THC can help with epilepsy and reduce seizures. But there is also evidence it can cause seizures.\n\nLegally, doctors can now prescribe cannabis oil products in the UK but they are refusing to, saying it needs to be trialled properly to show that it is safe and that it works.\n\nMarie and the location of her cannabis oil operation need to remain anonymous\n\nIn response, some people have been going to countries such as the Netherlands to get medical cannabis on prescription while others have turned to the black market.\n\nExperts warn this is a bad idea because their products are not pharmaceutical grade.\n\nThey say there can be a \"very real danger\" because users do not know exactly what is in the dealer's products.\n\nThe family I met in Scotland felt they had a black market dealer who actually wanted to help people - that was Marie.\n\nCCTV cameras are in operation to protect the site\n\nMarie told me she makes the oils because she had used cannabis herself for a medical condition and was sick of buying from street dealers.\n\n\"It was awful,\" she says. \"But it was out of necessity, not because I'm a hardened criminal. I kept getting ripped off by them and so I decided to grow it myself.\"\n\nHer illicit activities soon brought the attention of the police in Britain. By then, she had met a man and fallen in love. It took her to Spain.\n\nShe says: \"I made a pact there and then that I would help other people so that they wouldn't be ripped off as I had been. And that's how it all started.\"\n\nThe cannabis is grown in a small white-washed building up a narrow lane\n\nI met Marie in a bar west of Alicante, then she drove me into the mountains along dusty tracks lined with almond trees.\n\nThe first stop is where they grow the plants. A small white-washed building up a narrow lane. There are bars on the windows and doors and CCTV cameras. Other criminals sometimes come and steal the product, she tells me.\n\nThe door does not open far before we are hit with the sweet, pungent and unmistakeable aroma of cannabis.\n\nWe go from room to room. The plants are in various stages of growth. Once the perfect size and age, the buds will be picked and dried and transported to the lab, which is where she takes me next.\n\nThe laboratory where Marie makes the cannabis oils\n\nWe head north, back through the fields of almonds and towards the hills. Then we lurch along the final stretch of a pot-holed dusty track and stop outside a small crop of outbuildings in the middle of nowhere. There is the obligatory metal fencing, the big barking guard dog and cameras - but once we are through the gates, everything changes.\n\nThere, sitting incongruously in the arid Spanish plains, is a laboratory.\n\nOnce inside, the air conditioning does much to dampen the heat, but the pungent aroma of cannabis remains.\n\nMarie tells me she is going to make up some oil, so I can see how easy the process is. I'm not going to detail it here, but she is right - the process does look pretty simple.\n\nThe larger syringes sell for hundreds of euros\n\nThe larger syringes containing the oil can sell for several hundred euros but Marie tells me that if families really need it and do not have the money, she will give it to them for much less, sometimes for nothing.\n\nMarie says this is part of her idea of \"paying it forward\", but what she really wants is to teach people how to do it themselves.\n\nShe says: \"I want people to be self-sufficient so that we don't have to break the law on their behalf.\n\n\"Or I want the government in the UK to pull their fingers out and actually implement a system quickly. There isn't time for people to be waiting with dying children.\n\n\"I want them (the government) to implement a system quickly whereby people have access to quality medication, that they know what's in it and dosing programmes.\"\n\nMarie says there has been an increase in people asking for THC meds since the UK government changed the rules on prescriptions last year.\n\nShe says people think that if the government is saying legal medical cannabis is OK, then it can't be as bad as they used to say it was.\n\nHowever, Marie also says that she wants to stop running her cannabis oil operation.\n\n\"I don't want the stress, I don't want the responsibility, I don't want people calling me at two o'clock in the morning because they've run out of oil,\" she said.\n\n\"It's just way too much responsibility. I won't have people crying at me because their child's had 40 seizures.\"\n\nMarie says she has dozens of customers in the UK. Does she worry she is selling to desperate people, often with very sick children?\n\nShe admits that she has \"no control\" over what happens to the product once she sends it to people.\n\n\"We do the best that we can to provide a quality product,\" she says.\n\nThe oils are sent diluted, she says, with recommendations to be very careful with dosing protocols.\n\n\"But we try not to take too much part of what goes on from there because I don't want that responsibility,\" she says.\n\n\"My bit is to help them, but I would rather parents produce their own plants and made their own oil under guidance rather than me having to be part of that process.\"", "Britain's Chris Froome is in intensive care and \"not in great shape\" after suffering serious multiple fractures in a high-speed crash, his team principal Dave Brailsford told BBC Sport.\n\nFroome took his hand off his handlebars to blow his nose and was travelling at 54km/h when a gust of wind caught his front wheel, causing him to hit a wall.\n\nHe was airlifted to Saint-Etienne University Hospital for surgery.\n\n\"Time is of the essence in these situations,\" said the Team Ineos boss.\n\nThe four-time Tour de France champion, 34, has suffered a fractured right femur, a broken hip, a fractured elbow and fractured ribs and lost consciousness following the crash.\n\nThere is no indication at this stage that Froome sustained any head injury or concussion.\n\nSpeaking to Radio 5 Live's BeSpoke podcast, Brailsford said: \"He's been operated on to make sure that first phase of medical care is as optimal as possible and we will manage it from there.

He signalled to Wout that he was going to clear his nose, he took his hand of the bar to do that and a gust of wind took his front wheel, he lost control and went straight into the wall of a house.\n\n\"We have had a look at his data, he went from 54km/h to a dead stop.\"\n\nFroome would have been chasing a record-equalling fifth victory in the Tour, which starts in Brussels on 6 July, but has been ruled out of the race.\n\nBrailsford said the focus is now on Froome's recovery and his wife Michelle has been flown to the hospital to be with him.\n\n\"Instead of channelling his efforts into the Tour, he will have to channel everything he has got into his recovery,\" said Brailsford.\n\nHe added: \"He had just come back from Tenerife.

Just enjoy the night,\" she said.\n\nHead teacher Helen Jones recognises the financial pressure that comes with the American \"prom\" tradition\n\nThe school is not stopping at dresses - it has also asked Bridgend College to help with hair and make-up and hopes to source suits for pupils in future.\n\nNearly a quarter of its pupils, above the Welsh average, are entitled to free school meals and Ms Jones had questioned whether they should be running the prom at all. But overall the pupils wanted to have the event, so the school has decided to do what they can to keep it \"inclusive\".\n\n\"Austerity has affected everybody and tends to hit areas like Maesteg and lots of Valleys communities first. Certainly the recent news of the closing of the Ford factory [in Bridgend] has ricocheted around the community.

Whatever the meaning and the intention, it won't have the same priority.\n\n\"We won't see the problem right now, we'll see it 15 or 20 years down the line when the NHS bill goes through the roof because we have a generation of young adults who are just not fit enough to be healthy.\"\n\nBaroness Grey-Thompson's concern is echoed by a group of AMs, who recommended schools be required by law to provide at least two hours of PE every week.\n\nThe Health, Social Care and Sport Committee said the change was vital to tackle a public health crisis, with more than a quarter of four and five-year-olds starting school in Wales last year classed as obese or overweight.\n\nBut supporters of the new curriculum said it would lead to children being more active and healthy as, for the first time, the wellbeing of pupils would be placed at the heart of school life.\n\nThe wellbeing of pupils is placed at the heart of school life in the new curriculum\n\nIn 2013, Baroness Grey-Thompson chaired a group which examined PE in Welsh schools. Its main recommendation - that PE be made a core subject with the same status as maths, English, Welsh and science - was not implemented.\n\nEducation expert Prof Graham Donaldson was then commissioned by the Welsh Government to draw up a new curriculum.\n\nThe first draft was published last month after consultations with schools and is made up of six areas of learning and experience - including wellbeing, which incorporates physical activity alongside topics like sexuality, relationships and healthy eating.\n\nGethin Mon Thomas from GwE, the school improvement service for north Wales, said the new curriculum would deliver better outcomes than the plan proposed by Baroness Grey-Thompson.\n\n\"We have an area of learning and experience which occupies an increased amount of time on the school timetable,\" he said.\n\nBaroness Grey-Thompson has previously called for investment in leisure centres to improve health\n\n\"The curriculum oozes opportunities for sport to be used as a vehicle to support learning.\n\n\"We will actually put sport and physical activity in a position where it is truly valued in society, rather than just being something that small groups of individuals benefit from.\"\n\nSport Wales, the organisation responsible for promoting sport and physical activity in Wales, supports the new curriculum but its chief executive Sarah Powell said its success would stand or fall on the training teachers receive.\n\n\"The essential thing is to build up the confidence, motivation and skills of teachers to be able to deliver a high quality curriculum. But if we don't see that, then this is a curriculum that doesn't actually deliver the changes that we need to see.\"\n\nThe Welsh Government said the curriculum supported children's development, ensuring that they grow up to be healthy and confident individuals.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Last updated on .From the section Cycling\n\nBritain's four-time champion Chris Froome suffered a fractured right femur, a fractured elbow and fractured ribs in a high-speed crash that has ruled him out of the Tour de France.\n\nThe Team Ineos rider, 34, hit a wall at 54km/h when he took a hand off his handlebars to blow his nose, according to team principal David Brailsford.\n\nThe crash occurred before stage four of the Criterium du Dauphine.\n\nFroome has been airlifted to St Etienne University Hospital for surgery.\n\n\"Even though we all recognise the risks involved in our sport, it's always traumatic when a rider crashes and sustains serious injuries,\" said Brailsford.\n\n\"Chris had worked incredibly hard to get in fantastic shape and was on track for the Tour, which unfortunately he will now miss.\n\n\"One of the things which sets Chris apart is his mental strength and resilience - and we will support him totally in his recovery, help him to recalibrate and assist him in pursuing his future goals and ambitions.\"\n\nFroome was eighth overall in the Criterium after three stages of the eight-day race.\n\nIneos said Froome has \"multiple serious injuries\" after the incident, which occurred during a practice ride on Wednesday's 26.1km time-trial course in Roanne, France.\n\nSpeaking to BBC Sport's BeSpoke podcast: Brailsford said: \"He came down a technical descent and onto a straighter piece of road with houses either side. He signalled to [team-mate] Wout [Poels] that he was going to clear his nose, he took his hand of the bar to do that and a gust of wind took his front wheel, he lost control and went straight into the wall of a house.\n\n\"We have had a look at his data, he went from 54km/h to a dead stop.\"\n\nFroome would have been chasing a record-equalling fifth victory in the Tour, which starts in Brussels on 6 July.\n\nHe went into last year's race as favourite, holding all three Grand Tour titles, having won the Vuelta a Espana and the Giro d'Italia.\n\nHe finished third as team-mate Geraint Thomas became the third Briton to win the race.\n\nFroome has been the dominant stage racer of his generation, his accident coming at a time when he was bookmakers' favourite to win back the Tour de France yellow jersey that he ceded to team-mate Geraint Thomas a year ago.\n\nHis entire year had been focused on three weeks in France in July, his determination to win a record-equalling fifth title obvious when BBC Sport's BeSpoke podcast went out to visit his training camp in Tenerife two months ago.\n\nOrdinarily riders get up and race almost as soon as they crash. When their injuries are severe they immediately focus on a comeback race; cycling is a sport that waits for no champion.\n\nBut if Froome's injury is as bad as early reports indicate, not only the Tour but also the Vuelta a Espana in August and September's World Championships in Yorkshire must also be in significant doubt.", "There will be big hitters and booming drives aplenty at Pebble Beach when the US Open begins on Thursday.\n\nProfessional golfers are now finely tuned athletes, stronger and fitter than their predecessors with many boasting the physical prowess to rival counterparts from traditionally more athletic sports.\n\nSitting top of the class are Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson, who finished first and second at last month's US PGA Championship and are currently ranked as the best two golfers in the world.\n\nSo what is their secret?\n\nBoth work with Joey Diovisalvi, one of the pioneers in golf-specific fitness training and a biomechanics expert, who welcomes some of the top men's and women's players to his academy in Florida.\n\nMore than two decades ago, Diovisalvi recognised the need for players to evolve physically and set about putting the science behind the perfect swing into practice.\n\n\"It intrigued me because golfers were not so keen on the physical aspects - they were slow, late adapters and it took me a long time to create some acceptance and trust in that world,\" Diovisalvi, who credits 15-time major champion Tiger Woods as an early influencer in the field, told BBC Sport.\n\n\"I look at golfers today like Dustin and Brooks - an Adam Scott, a Jason Day and a Rory McIlroy - players of this calibre, they're very athletic, the human body has evolved, the science has evolved, the equipment has evolved.\n\n\"You look at them and the average player out on tour, their bodies have changed in height, weight, physicality... you see this huge shift in the game.

He's in the gym so many times at the same time Brooks and I or Dustin and I.\n\n\"Tommy is relentless in his pursuit of his strength, conditioning, mobility, flexibility. He and his trainer do such a phenomenal job and Tommy has really been able to compete with the bigger guys, but if his game is off it's very hard to put the ball in a position to score when they are out-driving you by 50/60 yards.\"\n\nA day in the life of DJ...\n\nDiovisalvi headed to the Canadian Open with world number two Johnson last week as the American put the final touches on his preparation for the third major of the year.\n\n\"Dustin is in a good place,\" he said. \"He's hitting it well and he's more comfortable with the putter. His body has been slowly and gradually building up to this major. He loves Pebble Beach, so I am very confident in the way he's approaching this week and used Canada as an opportunity.\n\n\"Mentally it preps these guys to have enough reps to feel good about where their driver is, where their short game is, the approach shots - what does it look like with the irons?\n\n\"It's a really good test to see how the body and the swing are working. Dustin's body is peaking nicely.\"\n\nHelping players get their \"feel\" is a key part of Diovisalvi's role.\n\n\"As the coach and the player are trying to get something to feel right, especially before a major, our job is to make sure the body and the nervous system understand how to ingrain that without over-thinking,\" he added.\n\n\"When their feel is off, you see them do things that are out of character for the calibre they play at. You hear the commentators, they start to over analyse and that's not really what it is... the reality is, if the feel is right and their bodies are reacting and they feel good with where their mental game is, it's a pretty seamless effort.\n\n\"Then it comes down to can they putt well to score?\"\n\nBut life on the PGA Tour can be intense, with players enduring long, hectic days that run far beyond what is picked up by the cameras during their rounds.\n\n\"It's not just a sunshiny day and they show up on the tee box or the driving range and go and play a five-hour round in the sunny weather,\" explained Diovisalvi, who has previously worked with three-time major winner Vijay Singh.\n\n\"Both Brooks and Dustin take their nutrition very seriously, they had chefs with them this week and rented homes so they got more of a feel what it's like to have their support team around them, their family, the opportunity to sleep better, to eat better.\"\n\nA day in the life on tour, eg 07:00 tee time\n\nAfter an early wake up - 04:00 if on the first tee at 07:00 - the players warm-up in the fitness trailers provided by the PGA Tour that are kitted out with the latest technology.\n\n\"Dustin will get on a spin bike for 10 or 12 minutes, get blood flowing, get his heart rate going a little bit,\" added Diovisalvi. \"Then we get down on a mat and do a very active, dynamic stretch for another 10 minutes.\"\n\nNext, the 2016 US Open champion works through a number of drills using stability balls, dumbbells, resistance bands and medicine balls to engage the muscles used during his round.\n\n\"He's using very dynamic movement patterns that mimic the golf swing,\" said Diovisalvi. \"He's very prepared in about 30 minutes to go out to the driving range and begin his routine.\n\n\"Now his feel or his body is very switched on. The nerves are firing, he feels the pressure from his feet.\n\n\"In 2019 we have worked harder than ever before on 'prehabilitation' - getting the body ready to perform so there's few chances of injury, higher performance levels, more ability to get the body to move properly.\"\n\nDiovisalvi takes huge pride in seeing the players he and his team have worked with win tournaments and the academy in Jupiter, Florida is decorated with banners won by the likes of Johnson, Koepka, Justin Thomas, Lexi Thompson and Michelle Wie.\n\n\"They always say the proof is in the championship rings, or the banners that hang on our walls,\" he said. \"The majors that have been won in our team, they humble me every day.\n\n\"You hang these banners and think 'gosh, we've been on teams that have helped win so many majors', it really is humbling what you have participated in and how you helped grow the game.\"", "Queen Elizabeth said she spent \"happy days\" at Villa Guardamangia\n\nThe Queen's former Malta home, Villa Guardamangia, has been put up for sale for nearly €6m (£5.3m).\n\nThe villa, located on the outskirts of the capital Valletta, is the only place outside the UK that Queen Elizabeth II has ever called home.\n\nShe lived there between 1949 and 1951, in the early years of her marriage to Prince Philip, who had been stationed in Malta as a naval officer.\n\nThe Grade Two listed property has since fallen into disrepair.\n\nIt is currently being listed by a luxury real estate agency, which describes it as \"an amazing grand Palazzo style property... with documented great historical value.\"\n\nThe listing says the 1,560 sq m (16,791 sq ft) property, which was built around 1900, boasts \"many authentic architectural features\", high ceilings, stables and \"various guest/servant quarters\".\n\n\"The property is just crying out for a great conversion and will make a superb residence or possibly a commercial venue,\" it adds.\n\nThe Queen and her husband lived in the villa before her coronation.

Oxfam whistleblower says change will take years\n\nOxfam has been severely criticised by the Charity Commission for the way it dealt with claims of serious sexual misconduct by its staff in Haiti.\n\nThe commission said there was a \"culture of poor behaviour\" at the charity, and issued it with an official warning over its \"mismanagement\".\n\nLast year Oxfam was accused of covering up claims staff sexually exploited victims of the 2010 earthquake.\n\nOxfam accepted the findings, saying what happened in Haiti was \"shameful\".\n\nClaims first emerged in The Times last year that Oxfam employees, including former country director Roland van Hauwermeiren, used young prostitutes while based in Haiti after the earthquake.\n\nAn internal Oxfam investigation in 2011 led to four people being sacked and three others resigning, including Mr Van Hauwermeiren.\n\nBut a report published by Oxfam after the investigation failed to mention sexual exploitation.\n\nThe charity commission said the incidents in Haiti identified in 2011 were not \"one-offs\", with evidence of behavioural issues as early as June 2010.\n\nThere were also issues at some of the charity's UK shops - the report highlighted 16 serious incidents involving volunteers under the age of 18.\n\nMr Van Hauwermeiren worked in Chad from 2006-09 before going to Haiti in 2010\n\nTuesday's report, which followed an 18-month investigation, found the charity failed to listen to warnings - including from its own staff, that it repeatedly fell below standards expected on safeguarding, and did not meet promises it made.\n\n\"What went wrong in Haiti did not happen in isolation,\" Charity Commission chief executive Helen Stephenson said.\n\n\"Over a period of years, Oxfam's internal culture tolerated poor behaviour, and at times lost sight of the values it stands for.\"\n\nOxfam's internal investigation into Haiti, following allegations by a whistleblower in 2011, could not conclude whether minors were involved in some of the incidents.\n\nTwo allegations of physical abuse, made by email from a 12-year-old and a 13-year-old girl, were \"suspected\" not to be genuine by Oxfam at the time.\n\nThe Charity Commission said Oxfam should have tried harder to substantiate the claims at the time, despite the lack of evidence.\n\nOxfam's chair of trustees, Caroline Thomson, said the charity accepted the findings, describing them as \"uncomfortable\".\n\n\"What happened in Haiti was shameful and we are deeply sorry,\" she said.\n\n\"It was a terrible abuse of power and an affront to the values that Oxfam holds dear.\"\n\nShe added: \"We now know that the 2011 investigation and reporting of what happened in Haiti was flawed; more should have been done to establish whether minors were involved.\"\n\nThe decision to allow Mr Hauwermeiren to resign without a fuller investigation into his conduct would not be permitted under current policies and practices, she said.\n\nThe Times had reported that Oxfam was aware of concerns about the conduct of Mr Van Hauwermeiren and another man when they worked in Chad before they were given senior roles in Haiti.\n\nMs Thomson added that every member of staff was being put through basic safeguarding training and 95% of them had already completed it.\n\nIt's rare to see such strong criticism of a charity.\n\nThe most stinging criticism was reserved for the way Oxfam was seen to be placing its own reputation - and its relationships with donors - above the need to protect victims.\n\nThe charity has been bleeding financial support since the story broke, losing 7,000 regular donors worth £14m.\n\nIt has also lost almost £20m in government funding over the last 18 months, and today's findings won't have done much to rebuild trust.\n\nThe report is incredibly strong and has done much to redress the Charity Commission's own laxity over safeguarding in the past.\n\nHowever, it was supposed to be published six months ago.\n\nFaced with an avalanche of safeguarding complaints from across the charity sector, there are still questions about whether the commission has the resources to sufficiently investigate and hold charities to account in the future.\n\nAfter the claims emerged, Haiti banned Oxfam GB from operating inside its borders and thousands of people stopped making regular donations to the charity.\n\nOxfam has also not been able to bid for government funding pending the outcome of the 18-month Charity Commission investigation.\n\nThe Department for International Development said decisions over its funding relationship with the charity would be made \"in due course\".\n\nInternational Development Secretary Rory Stewart said the revelations about Oxfam had \"shone a light on fundamental problems\", adding that there were \"no easy answers or room for complacency\".\n\nThe Charity Commission has instructed Oxfam, which has been under new chief executive Dhananjayan Sriskandarajah since January, to submit a plan on how it will address concerns about its previous conduct, in an effort to \"repair public trust and confidence\".", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nThey were the last of the major contenders to play - but a ruthless, record-breaking Women's World Cup demolition of Thailand showed why the United States are first in the world rankings.\n\nThe reigning champions' relentless 13-0 win in Reims - the city in which France used to crown its monarchs before the rise of the republic - told the world how determined they are to stay on the throne.\n\nIn contrast Japan, who have exchanged wins with the USA in the past two finals, were held to a 0-0 draw on Monday by an Argentina side ranked 37th in the world, three places below Thailand.\n\nAnd the flood of goals was at odds with other title-chasing nations, who struggled to finish off their opening opponents.\n\nWorld number two side Germany had a narrow 1-0 win over China in Group B, while England had to settle for a 2-1 win over improving Scotland, a nation they beat 6-0 in 2017.\n\nSimilarly, European champions the Netherlands needed a late winner to beat New Zealand in Group E, and Canada edged past a Cameroon side ranked 41 places below them.\n• None Morgan your player of the match after five-goal display\n• None Statement of intent or lack of respect - social media reacts to USA win\n\nYet no corks were being popped by USA boss Jill Ellis in France's Champagne region - she stressed there would be ups and downs to come.\n\n\"This will be an incredibly hard World Cup.

Security correspondent Frank Gardner looks at the evidence which the US says proves Iran's involvement in Thursday's attacks\n\nSpeaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, Mr Hunt reiterated that the UK's own intelligence assessment had concluded the Iranian regime was \"almost certainly\" behind the attacks on 13 June.\n\n\"We have got videos of what happened, we have seen evidence. We don't believe anyone else could have done this,\" he said.\n\nMr Hunt said there was a \"great risk\" of war over the incident and the UK was urging all sides to de-escalate the situation.\n\n\"Having spoken to President Trump, I am absolutely clear that for America they want this to end in negotiations that see Iran stop its destabilising activities,\" he said.\n\n\"That is the long term solution here.\"\n\nDefence minister Tobias Ellwood told Sky's Sophy Ridge on Sunday that the UK would be working to de-escalate tensions but would be \"determined to protect our assets and our interests in the region\".\n\nThursday's attacks on Norwegian and Japanese vessels in the key shipping route were the second time in the past few weeks that tankers appear to have been targeted in the region, as relations continue to sour between Iran and the United States.\n\nThe US military released video footage which it said proved Iran was behind the incident.

Who are the Conservative Party members?\n\nConservative MPs may have whittled the contenders in the leadership race down to the final two - but it will not be politicians who will decide who gets to be the next prime minister.\n\nInstead it will be the party's grassroots members who will decide which of Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson gets to succeed Theresa May.\n\nThey will do so in a postal ballot, with the winner announced in the week beginning 22 July.\n\nIn other words, it is members of the public - those who pay £25 a year to join the Conservative Party - who get the final say on who leads the country.\n\nThere will not be a general election because the party is already in power.\n\nSo, who are the Conservative Party's members and what do they think on key issues, not least, of course, Brexit?\n\nThe Conservative Party membership is currently thought to be around 160,000 - a rise of more than 30,000 in the past 12 months.\n\nThe last time official figures were released was in March 2018, when they put the figure at 124,000.\n\nThat is way down on the peak of nearly 3 million that the party boasted in the early 1950s.\n\nThe Tories have far fewer members than the Labour Party.\n\nEven if we assume that Labour's membership has fallen from the late 2017 peak of more than 550,000, it still has a huge advantage over the Conservatives when it comes to campaigning on the ground.\n\nRight now, however, none of that matters as much as the fact that those 160,000 or so rank-and-file members of the Conservative Party have a crucial role.\n\nThey are going to be choosing the next prime minister of a country of over 65 million people - something which has never happened before.\n\nFrom studies of the 124,000 members that the party had in 2018, we know quite a lot about who they are and their beliefs.\n\nMost members of most parties in the UK are pretty middle-class.\n\nBut Conservative Party members are the most middle-class of all: some 86% of them fall into the ABC1 category used by market researchers to describe the top social grade.\n\nAround a quarter of them are, or were, self-employed and nearly half of them work, or used to, in the private sector.\n\nNearly four out of 10 put their annual income at over £30,000, and one in 20 put it at over £100,000. As such, Tory members are considerably better-off than most voters and, indeed, the members of other parties.\n\nOn the other hand, the fact that 97% of Conservative Party members are white doesn't do much to distinguish them from their counterparts in other parties.\n\nIt does inevitably mean, however, that ethnic minorities, who make up well over 10% of British people, are heavily under-represented in the Tory rank and file.\n\nSo, too, are women. Other parties - notably Labour and the Greens, but also the SNP - now come close to gender balance, but seven out of 10 Conservative members are male.\n\nTory members are also older than the members of most other parties. True, their average age may \"only\" be 57, but this disguises the fact that four out of 10 are over 65.\n\nThey are concentrated in the southern half of England. Nearly 60% of Tory members live in London, the east, south-east and south-west.\n\nSo much for demography and geography. What about ideology?\n\nWell, not surprisingly, Tory Party members are more right-wing than the population as a whole.\n\nOn a scale where zero represents very left-wing and 10 very right-wing, the average voter places themselves at the centre point. The average Conservative Party member places themselves at 7.6.\n\nThree-quarters of them believe, for instance, that young people today don't have enough respect for traditional values. Nearly six out of 10 support the death penalty.\n\nThey are also conventionally right-wing on some aspects of economic policy.\n\nFor example, only 15% of them believe that government should redistribute income from the better-off to those who are less well-off.\n\nBut on other issues they hold views that may be more unexpected.\n\nA third of Tory rank-and-file members believe that ordinary working people do not get their fair share of the nation's wealth and that there is one law for the rich and one for the poor.\n\nAbout half believe that big business takes advantage of ordinary people.\n\nInterestingly, they have also cooled on austerity. In the summer of 2015, some 55% said government spending cuts hadn't gone far enough, but two years later that had fallen to 28%.\n\nWhat Tory members haven't cooled on, however, is Brexit.\n\nIndeed, since we started tracking them in 2015, they've hardened their position.\n\nIt is clear that they are not supporters of the deal negotiated by Theresa May.\n\nIn fact, it is now the case that fully two-thirds of them back a no-deal Brexit - an outcome supported by only a quarter of voters as a whole.\n\nNor are they in the least bit keen on the idea of letting the public have another say on the UK's EU membership.\n\nSome 84% of them oppose the idea of a new referendum on the issue.\n\nIn short, the grassroots aren't simply sceptical on Europe; they can't wait to leave, whatever that might take.\n\nFurthermore, a breakdown of YouGov polling data suggests that the 30,000 or so members who have joined in the past year are even more likely to be pro-Brexit.\n\nThis, then, is the Conservative Party electorate.\n\nAnd those MPs hoping to succeed Mrs May will need to pitch their promises accordingly.\n\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from experts working for an outside organisation.\n\nTim Bale is Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.", "Britain's Tyson Fury produced a ruthless display to stop previously undefeated heavyweight Tom Schwarz in the second round in Las Vegas.\n\nFury, wearing shorts with the American stars and stripes, entered the ring to James Brown's Living in America.\n\nFury, 30, backed Schwarz to the ropes in the second, driving a right hand home to drop the German to the floor.\n\nSeconds later, with Schwarz bloodied and under attack, his corner threw in the towel as the bout was waved off.\n\n\"I got a big man out of there by switching it up. He caught me with a couple but you can't go swimming and not get wet,\" said Fury, who now has 28 wins and a draw on his record.\n\n\"I came here to have fun and enjoy myself. I don't take it too seriously. I thought I put on a good show and the fans got what they paid for.\"\n• None Photos: Fury goes all Apollo Creed on winning Vegas debut\n\nThis was Fury's first outing since his controversial draw with WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in Los Angeles in December.\n\nThere will be many who feel 25-year-old Schwarz was over-matched, with British heavyweight Dillian Whyte quick to label the German a \"chump\" and the fight \"a joke\".\n\nBut this was billed as a showcase bout for Fury in what was his first contest of a lucrative deal with ESPN. The marketing of the former world heavyweight champion was there for all to see as he took off a black robe during his MGM Grand ring walk to reveal the US stars and stripes on a second gown.\n\nThis was all about enhancing his profile to the American market and the five minutes and 54 seconds of boxing that followed did no harm to the undefeated Briton's future earning power or damage his hopes of a rematch with Wilder.\n\nIn round one he pinged a sharp jab through the underdog's defence and threw smart hooks around the guard, with Schwarz walking forward gamely but landing little against the evasive 6ft 9in Fury frame.\n\nAnd in the second, Fury showed his abundant ring craft when he willingly retreated to a corner before landing a left hook while swivelling out of the tight space to open up an attack.\n\nIt was the beginning of the end as seconds later he thrust a right hand into Schwarz's face, forcing a knockdown which was quickly followed by the conclusion as Schwarz stood a static target with shots raining in on him.\n\nFury was handed the microphone and - just as he did after ripping the IBF, WBA and WBO world titles from Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 - opted to sing Aerosmith hit I Don't Want to Miss a Thing.\n\n\"Tonight was great, I will enjoy it,\" he added. \"We will get deals done, get another fight in and then we fight Wilder next year.\"\n\nNo slip-ups but what's next?\n\nFury's win came two weeks after fellow Briton Anthony Joshua lost the IBF, WBA and WBO titles in a shock defeat by Andy Ruiz Jr at Madison Square Garden.\n\nDespite a late flurry of money being placed on Schwarz, who was previously unbeaten in 24 bouts, the German never looked like he could spring a similar surprise.\n\nInstead, ringside celebrities such as singer Robbie Williams, chef Gordon Ramsay and former baseball star Alex Rodriguez witnessed a dismantling by Fury.\n\nIt has been a whirlwind 12 months since he returned to the sport after battles with drugs, alcohol and depression which saw him give up his WBA and WBO titles, having already been stripped of the IBF belt because of failing to fight the mandatory challenger.\n\nIt appears a rematch with WBC champion Wilder is his main focus but another fight will come first, either on 21 September or 5 October, with his US promoter Bob Arum stating this week that New York's Madison Square Garden was provisionally booked.\n\nA meeting with Wilder should therefore happen early in 2020.\n\n\"Wilder's team want to make it happen,\" said Fury's promoter Frank Warren. \"Everybody wants to make it happen and it will happen.\"\n\nIf Fury and Wilder do meet again it will likely follow Joshua's proposed rematch with Ruiz, meaning the heavyweight landscape may well have changed once more.\n\nAfter his win Fury said his Las Vegas bout felt like \"my coming out party\".\n\nHe now appears to have US backing, momentum and the necessary focus to ensure he is in the mix for what could be a captivating period in the division.\n\nReaction - 'This is just the beginning'\n\nFormer world heavyweight champion Joseph Parker on BBC Radio 5 Live: \"What a statement. I know Schwarz is not of the same class of Fury's last opponents but he was game and did his best.\n\n\"Fury has made a big impact in the UK but from this fight he is also going to make a huge impact in the United States. A lot of people are drawn to him because he is so charismatic.\n\n\"He is very good at speaking and brings a lot more to fight night than just boxing. This is just the beginning.\"\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live commentator Mike Costello: \"That was a brilliant statement from Tyson Fury. He was so aggressive, pinpoint with his punches and fighting on the front foot. It's another win and he remains on course to win another version of the world heavyweight title.\"\n\nBritish heavyweight Dillian Whyte: \"Can't believe I stayed to watch that joke of a fight. Tyson Fury should be ashamed of himself running away from me and fighting these chumps.

Official data shows that this time last year there had been 82 deaths - and 2018 was ultimately the worst year on record in the city for a decade.\n\nHow do these figures compare to other places? Donald Trump's home city of New York is often regarded as a comparable city because it has a similar population and shares other characteristics too.\n\nFigures from the Metropolitan Police show 136 homicides were recorded in Greater London in 2018.

Instead, he says, the crew reported \"flying objects\".\n\nIf military action does eventually break out, conclusions reached today - behind closed doors - will one day be scrutinised in public.\n\nUS President Donald Trump has insisted Iran was behind the attacks, citing footage that Washington says shows Iranian forces removing an unexploded mine off the hull of one of the ships - hours after the initial detonations.\n\nUN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said the truth needed to be \"clearly established\", while Russia has warned against drawing \"hasty conclusions\".\n\nThe blasts came a month after four oil tankers were damaged in an attack off the coast of the United Arab Emirates. The US blamed Iran for that attack, but did not produce evidence.

or 'glass' eels - every year to Asia, where they are farmed and sold as a delicacy.\n\nAndrew Kerr, of the Sustainable Eel Group said the illegal trade in glass eels, also known as elvers, was estimated to be worth about £3bn a year.\n\nMr Kerr told the BBC: \"It's the most trafficked animal by number and by value.\n\nThe Sustainable Eel Group's Andrew Kerr said the illegal trade was estimated to be worth about £3bn a year\n\n\"It leaves here at one Euro each and then one year later, having been grown in the 900 eel farms of inland China, it's worth 10 Euros - and that's pretty tempting.\n\n\"This is the greatest wildlife crime on the planet.\"\n\nThe illegal trade has previously been focused on stocks in France and Spain but now smugglers have turned their attention to the UK, where glass eels can only be caught by licensed fishermen.\n\nCountryfile's investigations team posted an advert on an online trading website, offering live eels caught in the River Severn for sale.\n\nOne buyer from China offered more than £1,000 per kilo for the eels to be shipped to Malaysia, despite acknowledging that the export would be illegal.\n\nThe current price for eels bought and sold legitimately within the EU is about £150 per kilo.\n\nAnother buyer from Russia asked for the catch to be sent to Lithuania legally where he would then arrange for the eels to be moved over the border to Russia.\n\nThe team was also approached by a UK-based commodities trader who said he had a client in Asia who was looking for glass eels to be exported to South Korea.\n\nWhen later confronted, he said he knew that it was illegal to export eels, that he did not have a buyer in South Korea and that he was only \"speculating\".\n\nIan Guildford of the National Wildlife Crime Unit described it as a \"major crime\"\n\nHe added that he had never exported glass eels and had no intention of doing so.\n\nSince the 1970s, the numbers of eels reaching Europe is thought to have declined by about 90%.\n\nToday they are protected as an endangered species by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).\n\nThey are also named on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species.\n\nBut campaigners are concerned that a lack of monitoring is allowing glass eels to be moved between EU member states and beyond, with few traceability checks enforced or records kept.\n\nIan Guildford, of the National Wildlife Crime Unit, said it was often hard to convince other enforcement agencies to take the crime seriously.\n\nHe said: \"This is major crime and, once we can get people to understand the severity of the problem, then we might get somewhere.\"\n\nSee the full story on Countryfile on BBC1 at 19:00 BST on 16 June and afterwards on the iPlayer.\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Channel 4 set up an empty podium for Boris Johnson, who declined to take part in the debate\n\nContenders to replace Theresa May as Conservative leader have clashed over delivering Brexit during a TV debate.\n\nThe MPs argued over whether a new deal could be renegotiated with the EU, and the prospect of a no-deal Brexit.\n\nBoris Johnson came under fire for not taking part in the Channel 4 debate but defended his stance, suggesting it would \"be slightly cacophonous\".\n\nHis leadership bid has been backed by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who dropped out of the race on Friday.\n\nSome of the sharpest exchanges came over whether Parliament should be shut down - prorogued - in order to push through a no-deal Brexit by 31 October - something four of the five candidates argued against.\n\nThe UK had been due to leave the EU on 29 March, but EU leaders agreed to delay the date to October after MPs repeatedly rejected Theresa May's Brexit deal.\n\nInternational Development Secretary Rory Stewart said proroguing Parliament was a \"deeply disturbing\" option and Home Secretary Sajid Javid warned \"you don't deliver democracy by trashing our democracy\".\n\nHowever ex-Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab refused to rule it out, saying \"every time one of these candidates take an option away… we weaken our chances of getting the best deal.\"\n\nChannel 4's debate attracted an audience of 1.3 million and 7.8% of the audience share.

How can it be done by October? How could the UK leave without a deal if MPs refuse?\n\nAt one end of the debate, Dominic Raab was rounded on for saying he would be prepared to try and suspend parliament if it was the only way to get the UK out without a deal at the end of October.\n\nIn the opposite corner, Rory Stewart was the only one who said a renegotiation with the EU in the next four months was a fantasy promise.\n\nAt some point this week one of the five will break out and become the challenger to Boris Johnson for the ballot of Tory members.\n\nThe candidates at the debate before a studio audience in east London also argued over whether a no-deal Brexit should be considered.\n\nMr Javid said no deal was the \"last thing\" he wanted, but added: \"You do plan for no deal precisely because you want a deal.\"\n\nMr Raab said Britain would be able to \"manage those risks\" associated with leaving the EU without a deal.\n\nHowever, Mr Stewart said \"I think a no-deal Brexit is a complete nonsense,\" adding \"it would be deeply damaging for our economy.\"\n\nThe candidates were united in condemnation of the Labour leader with Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt accusing Jeremy Corbyn of being \"against aspiration\".\n\nEnvironment Secretary Michael Gove argued that he was the candidate Mr Corbyn would be most scared of facing at Prime Minister's Questions.\n\nMr Johnson, the front-runner in the leadership race, was represented at the debate by an empty lectern.\n\nAnd Mr Hunt attacked his failure to appear.\n\n\"Where's Boris?\" he asked, adding \"if his team won't allow him out with five fairly friendly colleagues, how is he going to deal with 27 European countries?\"\n\nMr Stewart also made a pointed dig at his absent colleague, saying he hoped \"one of us\" - referring to the MPs who had attended the debate - becomes prime minister.\n\nSpeaking to Radio 4's World at One on Friday, Mr Johnson said he was \"pretty bewildered\" by claims he was dodging scrutiny and said the public had had \"quite a lot of blue-on-blue action, frankly, over the last three years\".\n\nHe said the best time to take part was on Tuesday after the second ballot and would be at the BBC debate on Tuesday, hosted by Emily Maitlis.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nHealth Secretary Matt Hancock - who withdrew from the leadership race after the first ballot - has backed Mr Johnson \"as the best candidate to unite the Conservative Party\" as has Esther McVey, who was eliminated in the first round.\n\nWriting in the Times, Mr Hancock said Mr Johnson had a \"unique personality\", adding: \"I have confidence Boris will be a One Nation prime minister because that's how he ran London - consistently - for eight years.\"\n\nMr Gove told BBC Radio 4's Today he was \"naturally disappointed\" that Mr Hancock had chosen to endorse his rival rather than himself.\n\nWhile Mr Johnson remained the frontrunner, Mr Gove said \"we need to make sure he is tested\" and he believed he could make it to the final two as a \"strong alternative\" who was equipped to \"be prime minister from day one\".\n\nThe TV debate also saw politicians being asked about their priorities apart from Brexit.\n\nMr Javid chose funding education and further education colleges, saying: \"We have cut back too much in that space.\"\n\nMr Raab said he wanted to improve state schools and offer more choices for young apprenticeships, while Mr Gove said children would be his top priority and emphasised the importance of protecting the environment for the future.\n\nMr Hunt told the audience \"every Conservative has two desires: cut taxes and spend more on public services.\" He also said he would focus on literacy and the social care system.\n\nMr Stewart said his central priority would be fixing adult social care, describing the issue as \"the great unfinished revolution\".\n\nAsked about their weaknesses, Mr Gove said he was impatient, while Mr Raab said he was \"a restless soul\" who \"always wanted to make things better\".\n\nMr Javid admitted to being stubborn while Mr Stewart said there were \"many things he didn't know about the world\".

I am also not surprised because these two figures loathe each other.\n\nThis is a political grudge match which has been simmering now for three years, back from when the president introduced that travel ban on some Muslim countries.\n\nProtests at Mr Trump's visit, including a \"national demonstration\" in Trafalgar Square, are planned for central London.\n\nBoth the Stop Trump Coalition and Stand Up to Trump protest groups said they would be present.\n\nThe Met Police said it had \"a very experienced command team\" leading the operation to deal with the visit.\n\nThe Museum of London wants both the Sadiq Khan and Donald Trump blimps as exhibits", "With the number of fatal stabbings in England and Wales in 2017-18 the highest since records began - the BBC has tracked the first 100 killings in 2019 - revealing the people behind the headlines.\n\nStabbings were the largest single cause of death, totalling 40 fatalities out of 100, with the remaining 60 resulting from other causes such as assault or fire.\n\nThe age range of victims is strikingly wide.\n\nA fifth of those killed this year were under the age of 20, but most commonly, victims were in their 20s and 30s.\n\nThe youngest was a one-month old baby boy and the oldest were twin brothers killed in Exeter, aged 84.\n\nTwenty-two victims were killed in London, nine in Greater Manchester and eight in the West Midlands.\n\nSorry, your browser cannot display this map\n\nBelow are the names and, where available, photos and profiles of those who have tragically lost their lives so far this year.\n\nIf you can't see this interactive, click this link.\n\nInformation supplied by police forces in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.\n\nThe list is comprised of manslaughters, murders and infanticides. These causes of death are categorised as homicides by the Office of National Statistics.\n\nFigures are correct as of 8 March 2019 but may change as investigations progress and charges are brought or dropped.\n\nThe figures do not include the case of Sean Fitzgerald who was shot during a police raid in Coventry, or a police investigation into an assisted suicide in Hampshire.\n\nUpdate 22 March 2019: The list has been updated as a result of new information supplied to the BBC.", "Last updated on .From the section Cricket\n\nIndia continued their World Cup dominance over rivals Pakistan with a rain-affected 89-run victory as a highly anticipated match came to a strange end at Old Trafford.\n\nPakistan, chasing 337, collapsed to 166-6 before a rain delay saw their target revised to another 136 runs required from 30 balls - a near-impossible task.\n\nIndia, who have never lost a World Cup match to Pakistan, earlier posted an impressive 336-5, led by Rohit Sharma's fine 140 and 77 from Virat Kohli.\n\nOnly Mohammad Amir (3-47) impressed with the ball for Pakistan and their run-chase crumbled in front of a vociferous crowd, before the rain delay added further confusion.\n• None Rivals on the field, friends on it - fans light up India-Pakistan match\n• None TMS podcast: India show their class to leave Pakistan on the brink\n\nThis was the marquee game of this World Cup - a sell-out crowd, one billion TV viewers and more than 700,000 ticket requests, but it ended with Pakistan knocking the ball around in front of a half-empty stadium.\n\nPlay looked to be done when rain arrived at 18:20 BST, but it resumed 55 minutes later and with 15 minutes to go before the scheduled cut-off time.\n\nIndia's batting lit up the morning but, with rain falling and Pakistan's innings crumbling, it was a tame end to a match that promised plenty.\n\nHardik Pandya took two wickets in two balls and Vijay Shankhar impressed on his World Cup debut, but there will be concern for India over the fitness of seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who left the field with a tight hamstring.\n\nPakistan, who are ninth having won just one group game, face South Africa on 23 June, while India play Afghanistan on Saturday.\n• None TMS podcast: India show their class to leave Pakistan on the brink\n• None Relive the best clips, analysis and fan pictures as they happened\n• None India v Pakistan - the best fan pictures from Manchester\n\nPakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed might have allowed himself a wry smile when he won the toss and, under grey clouds, put India in to bat in conditions that looked ideal for seam bowling.\n\nWith the exception of Amir, the Pakistan seamers were wasteful. Short balls were pulled into the stands by Rohit; length was nudged and nurdled around the field.\n\nKL Rahul, partnering Rohit in Shikhar Dhawan's absence, was stodgier. While Rohit struck out, hitting a poor Hassan Ali through the off side with panache, Rahul struggled for fluency.\n\nThis was the duo's first time opening together and it showed, with Rohit lucky not to be run out after a mix-up mid-pitch as Fakhar Zaman threw the ball to the wrong end from mid-wicket.\n\nIn front of a packed crowd, Rohit reached his fastest one-day half-century, taking apart Shadab Khan with 17 runs from the leg-spinner's first over.\n\nIt was almost a surprise when the 136-run opening partnership ended, with Rahul chipping Wahab Riaz straight to mid-off.\n\nRohit was imperious. He favoured the cut shot, carving Wahab and Hassan to the boundary, and was given a standing ovation as he reached his second century of this tournament with a clipped single.\n\nRohit was furious to be finally caught by Wahab at short fine leg as he tried to scoop, but Kohli continued.\n\nHardik Pandya hit out, with a top edge that flew over the keeper's head for six, while Kohli rotated the strike, clattering Amir back down the ground for four after reaching his fifty.\n\nIndia did struggle in the final 10 overs in between the rain.\n\nPandya was caught at long-on, MS Dhoni edged behind and Kohli walked off, thinking he had nicked a hook shot to Sarfaraz.\n\nHowever, the replay showed he had missed the ball - which Kohli, watching in the dressing room, berated himself about as India reached their highest total against Pakistan in England.\n\nThe result was summed up by the demeanour of each captain.\n\nSarfaraz, behind the stumps, could barely hide his annoyance at Pakistan's loose bowling and fielding. His opposite number Kohli berated himself when a cover drive found the fielder, competitiveness showing in every stretch of his body.\n\nA chase that never was\n\nPakistan's chase was more of a crawl. Needing to go at 6.74 an over, they never looked as though they would come close to India's total, even before the anti-climactic ending.\n\nThey hit just six boundaries in the opening 10 overs and struggled to impose themselves. Bhuvneshwar and Jasprit Bumrah bowled tightly, Bumrah confusing the batsmen with his angled deliveries, but it was Shankar who took the first wicket.\n\nWith Bhuvneshwar leaving the field four balls into his third over, Shankar replaced him - and his first delivery trapped Imam-ul-Haq on the crease lbw.\n\nThere were moments that hinted at a comeback. Fakhar Zaman targeted Pandya, flat-batting him through cow-corner, and wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav was slogged to the boundary rope by the same batsman in the middle overs.\n\nBut there was no partnership, no ability by Pakistan to rotate the strike. From a comfortable, if non-threatening 117-1 in the 24th, they lost four wickets in three overs.\n\nBabar Azam was bowled by a fine, fizzing delivery from Kuldeep, while nine balls later Mohammad Hafeez holed out at long-on off Pandya.\n\nWhen Pandya bowled Shoaib Malik with his next delivery, Pakistan were in disarray even before the rain arrived.\n\nWhile the majority of the crowd would have gone home satisfied - and without seeing the final five overs - it was a flat ending to a match that promised so much.\n\n'Rohit was outstanding' - what they said\n\nIndia captain Virat Kohli: \"Rohit's knock was outstanding but to get to 330 you need a team effort and that is exactly what happened.\n\n\"Rohit is such a good ODI player, when he gets to 70 he is unstoppable. It allows me to come in and play in a certain role, the guys are playing their roles nicely.\n\n\"Kuldeep is a wicket taker, a longer spell helped him, he was getting rhythm and the ball to get Babar Azam was brilliant. It was a very important moment in the game.\"\n\nPakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed: \"We didn't bowl in the right areas and India played very well.\n\n\"We had a plan to bowl in the right areas and pitch it up but we didn't hit the right areas. We didn't capitalise on winning the toss and conceded too many runs.\n\n\"The ball was turning, spinning. India played very well in the middle of the innings. We lost so many wickets in two or three overs and that is what cost us the match.\"\n\nBBC cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew: \"India can now celebrate their victory. For Pakistan it is now a worrying state of affairs. The odds are this has finished their World Cup.\"\n\nFormer England spinner Graeme Swann on the decision to resume the match with Pakistan needing 136 off 30 balls: \"They [umpires in the middle] are three intelligent men who get the game, this is bad for the game to make a farce of itself for rules' sake.\n\n\"I can't see any positive reason for going back out there. Oh cricket, stop shooting yourself in the foot.\n\n\"In the two dressing rooms India would say we don't mind going out, but it's humiliating for Pakistan.\"", "It was Father's Day 2016 when Jaclyn Suttie told husband Andrew he was going to become a dad.\n\nThe Broughty Ferry couple were overjoyed. A month later there was further cause for celebration.\n\n\"We found out it was going to be twins,\" Andrew said. \"So we were obviously delighted with that as well.\"\n\nWith preparations for the new arrivals under way, scans revealed that one of the babies, known then as Twin Two, was smaller than her sister.\n\nAndrew told BBC Scotland's The Nine: \"At 30 weeks they said Twin Two is really quite a bit smaller, so we were really quite worried about that.\n\n\"Then at 32 weeks the girls were born by C-section.\"\n\nBoth twins required specialist care in Ninewells Hospital's neonatal unit, with Jessica, who was born weighing just 2lb 11oz, spending three months in the hospital.\n\nA week after Jessica was discharged from hospital, Andrew and Jaclyn received devastating news.\n\nJessica had Zellweger Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder with no cure, and would probably not survive a year.\n\n\"That was just catastrophic,\" Andrew said. \"Zellweger Syndrome is a horrible syndrome.\n\n\"There's very little they can do to help other than keep the child comfortable and keep them growing.\n\n\"To find out at that stage that your child is not going to live to their first birthday and all the hopes you had for that child are just absolutely shattered.\n\n\"It was just devastating, it was awful.\"\n\nThe family were accepted to receive care at Rachel House, one of the charity's hospices\n\nShattered by the news, Andrew began researching support groups, and asked if the family could be referred to the charity Children's Hospices Across Scotland, better known as Chas.\n\nChas provides hospice services for babies, children and young people with life-shortening conditions.\n\nIt offers palliative, respite and end-of-life care from Rachel House in Kinross and Robin House in Balloch.\n\nAndrew said: \"They accepted us to go to Rachel House. It's a children's hospice, but you would never know that.\n\n\"It's like a five-star hotel, but with everybody there in the same situation as you are and all the staff are used to dealing with it as well.\"\n\nAndrew found that meeting other fathers dealing with their own children's situations allowed him to open up about his own.\n\nHe said: \"There are other dads who are in exactly the same boat.\n\n\"Like most Scottish males they don't express their emotions, so it was good to be able to talk quite openly with them about how you were feeling.\"\n\nAndrew and Jaclyn \"always speak about Jessica\" to her sister Georgia\n\nOne night in September 2017 Andrew and Jaclyn returned to Rachel House, after enjoying a meal out together.\n\nAndrew said: \"Georgia and Jessica had been sharing a room together, having a wee babble away to each other.\n\n\"Jaclyn knew that something wasn't right with Jessica and then she just stopped breathing.\n\n\"It really was out-of-the blue although you know to expect it. It came as such a shock.\"\n\nJessica was eight months old.\n\nChas have launched a new appeal to support bereaved fathers and Andrew is one of those who have contributed a Father's Day message written to their daughters.\n\nHe said that if any friends are apprehensive of speaking about Jessica, they needn't worry.\n\nAndrew said: \"I love speaking about her.\n\n\"Right from the start with Georgia we always speak about Jessica.\n\n\"She had a beautiful smile, and her relationship with Georgia, they loved each other. They definitely knew they were sisters.\n\n\"She was my daughter and she always will be my daughter.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Tens of thousands of protesters took to Hong Kong's streets on 12 June in opposition to a bill that would allow extradition to mainland China.\n\nThe demonstrators, most of them young people, have said they had not planned their movements in advance, but began cooperating on the ground as they came under pressure to disperse from security forces.\n\nThe BBC's Rupert Wingfield-Hayes and cameraman Joe Phua were there as the clashes began and saw the spontaneous coordination in action.", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I am one of the ones who would have been delighted had he stayed.\n\n\"However, great Chelsea managers come along like 42 busses every two minutes - there will be another one. He has gone.

Even the unloved, post-Geri single Holler got a tropical overhaul that rendered it briefly tolerable.\n\nBut most importantly, the band's cheeky, stupid chemistry was still intact.\n\n\"Our audience has got a lot hotter,\" observed Mel B at one point.\n\n\"That's probably because our audience isn't eight any more,\" Mel C replied.\n\nThe atmosphere was certainly more hen night than pyjama party - but in an era where pop stars increasingly stress their fallible, human side, it was refreshing to see the Spice Girls celebrating fun and friendship.\n\nTheir fondness for each other was apparent throughout, with supportive hugs, gentle mockery and knowing glances the order of the day. The supposed rift between Mel B and Geri, caused by the revelation they had once slept together, was either forgotten or incredibly well-disguised.\n\nInstead, they had each other in stitches during a scrappy karaoke segment, where the musicians played snippets of Spice Girls' solo hits, only to discover the singers couldn't remember the words. (They did, however, know the lyrics for Adele's Someone Like You, which was a stroke of luck, given she was in the audience.)\n\n\"You know what's going to amaze you Wembley?\" asked Mel C, sarcastically. \"We haven't rehearsed this bit.\"\n\nThis Instagram post cannot be displayed in your browser.

Where is she?\"\n\nAnd when the audience became particularly vocal, Geri suggested holding auditions, noting: \"There's always room for a fifth member.\"\n\nBut to be honest, they didn't need one.\n\nWithout casting aspersions on Absent Spice, the boisterous spontaneity of Scary, Sporty, Baby and Ginger was enough to prove why the Spice Girls remain Britain's best girl band.\n\nSure, Girls Aloud had more innovative songs, the Sugababes had more poise, and Little Mix are better singers - but the Spice Girls had something else: They were about freedom, self-belief and disobedience, in an era where pop stars - and female pop stars in particular - were supposed to shut up and behave. Imagine what that felt like for a teenager in the 90s.\n\nIn the 21 years since the Spice Girls last played Wembley, reality has dashed some of those dreams, for the band and their fans alike, but for two brief hours on Saturday night, they could all remember how it used to be.\n\n\"This is a night to celebrate,\" said Mel C. \"Being in Spice World is incredible.\"\n\nFollow us on Facebook, on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts, or on Instagram at bbcnewsents.

Sara Netanyahu admitted in court to misuse of state funds.\n\nThe wife of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has admitted to misuse of state funds and will have to pay $15,000 (£11,910).\n\nSara Netanyahu was accused of spending $99,300 on outside catering while falsely declaring there were no cooks available at the PM's residence.\n\nShe was charged with fraud and breach of trust last year.\n\nHer lawyer said the case had nothing to do with her and said it was an attempt to bring down her husband.\n\nUnder a plea deal, Mrs Netanyahu will repay the state $12,490 and pay a fine of $2,777.\n\nShe will have a criminal record though the charges she faced were reduced, the Jerusalem Post reported.\n\nProsecutor Erez Padan said that the prosecution had made \"significant concessions\" that led to a \"balanced and right plea deal.\" He said the compromise had saved the court from calling on 80 witnesses.\n\n\"The prosecution is aware there isn't full correlation between the sum and the criminal offence, however in the framework of the legal procedure, a full correlation is not obligatory,\" he said.\n\nLast year, Mrs Netanyahu's lawyers argued that she had not been made aware of the procedures about outside catering and that the meals had been ordered by the household manager and served to visiting dignitaries.\n\nResponding to the charges, Mr Netanyahu said in a statement: \"Sara Netanyahu is a strong and honourable woman and there has never been any fault in her actions.\"\n\nIn 2016, a court awarded $47,000 in damages to a former housekeeper who accused Mrs Netanyahu of workplace abuse. The court accepted Meni Naftali's claim that he had been insulted and verbally abused.\n\nSeparately, Prime Minister Netanyahu is facing his own legal battles.

That didn't work out well, so let's not make the same mistake again,\" said Mr Javid.\n\nSenior Conservative Party figures were reportedly drawing up plans for other candidates to withdraw from the contest after Mr Johnson gained 114 votes in the first ballot - more than double his nearest rival, Mr Hunt.\n\nThe Daily Telegraph said that the Tory whips' office drew up the plan to avoid weeks of internal party conflict.\n\nIt would mean Mr Johnson would be the only candidate to go forward to the final postal ballot of party members, making his election a formality.\n\nForeign Secretary Jeremy Hunt told the BBC that most people wished \"there had been more scrutiny\" in 2016. He pledged to emulate David Cameron in the 2005 leadership contest, who came from behind to earn a victory that \"shocked everyone\".\n\nMr Johnson avoided reporters as he arrived at the meeting - a hustings organised by the National Conservative Convention, where he and other leadership candidates will address potential voters.\n\nEarlier, former Brexit secretary Dominic Raab said the next party leader needed to be thoroughly tested in the heat of debate.\n\n\"Everyone is going to have to demonstrate that they have not just the vision, but the nerve and mettle to deal with the EU and with a minority government,\" he told The Daily Telegraph.\n\n\"If you can't take the heat of the TV studios, what chance of taking the heat of the negotiating chamber in Brussels?\"\n\nHe also contrasted his own background as the grammar school-educated son of a refugee with the \"privileged elite\", and said he would be more likely to unite working class and middle class voters.", "The comment on murals forms part of a wider guide to Belfast\n\nA world-renowned travel guide is to remove content about Belfast murals after it was described as \"highly inaccurate and offensive\".\n\nThe content on Fodor's Travel website and in their books on Ireland, said nationalist murals \"often aspire to the heights of Sistine Chapel-lite\".\n\nIt said loyalist murals \"sometimes resemble war comics without the humour\".\n\nThe content was also used by Singapore Airlines in their travel guide.\n\nProf Peter Shirlow, head of Irish Studies at Liverpool University, criticised the city guide.\n\n\"I found some of the commentary to be offensive, if not sectarian,\" he said.\n\n\"It plays upon sectarian myths of identity and culture in Northern Ireland and has failed in any way to deal with the murals in ways that is either balanced, appropriate or ultimately fair.\"\n\nThe guide makes comparisons between murals in loyalist and nationalist areas\n\nIn a statement to BBC News NI, Fodor's Travel said the content has been removed from their website Fodors.com and would be removed from the ebook version of its guide to Ireland within the week.\n\n\"We will also ensure that the content is removed and updated for the next print edition of Fodor's Essential Ireland, which will be released on September 8.\n\n\"Fodor's Travel is always listening to the feedback we receive about our content, and we take action when we're notified of content that is outdated, inaccurate, or insensitive by updating and/or removing that content.\"\n\nOn loyalist murals, the guide said: \"Recently, Protestant murals have taken on a grimmer air and typical subjects include wall-eyed paramilitaries perpetually standing firm against increasing liberalism, nationalism and all the other -isms Protestants see eroding their stern, Bible-driven way of life.\"\n\nThe guide described murals in nationalist areas as featuring \"themes of freedom from oppression, and a rising nationalist confidence that romantically and surreally mix and match images from the Book Of Kells, the Celtic mist mock-heroic posters of the Irish artist Jim Fitzpatrick, assorted phoenixes rising from the ashes and revolutionaries clad in splendidly idiosyncratic sombreros and bandanas from ideological battlegrounds in Mexico and South America.\"\n\nMurals on the Newtownards Road in east Belfast\n\nAuthor and commentator Fionnuala O Connor said the guide had a \"republican triumphalist ring to it\", and is \"patronising and sneering at loyalists\".\n\n\"The idea that loyalists are protesting in defence of a 'stern, Bible-driven way of life' has the ring of someone with one eye on an old social history and little to no sense of life now in loyalist districts,\" she said.\n\n\"It is far from Bible-driven. This is slanted in a way which leaves a sour taste in modern Belfast.\n\n\"There's a nasty edge. Singapore Airlines should ask the writer for their money back.\"\n\nReferring to the \"grimmer air\" the airline's guide stated loyalist murals had taken on, Prof Shirlow said the \"reimagining\" of Protestant murals had led to fewer paramilitary themes and instead a greater focus on community celebration, gender issues, peace building and \"non-sectarian identity tropes\".\n\n\"The text is, based upon the evidence that I hold, unacceptable and could potentially facilitate a sectarianised narrative,\" Prof Shirlow added.\n\nFionnuala O Connor said Singapore Airlines should look for its money back\n\nIn a statement Singapore Airlines said: \"We understand from our in-flight entertainment system providers that the content for the in-flight guide was provided by Fodor's travel guides for use on board by airlines.\n\n\"However, we note your feedback and have gotten in touch with the agencies involved and are taking steps to review the content in the in-flight guide.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

In doing so he ensured the relentless work-rate Warrington had built his career on could never truly break out as the fight became scrappy and stop-start.\n\nHe was warned for excessive holding around the midway point but by that stage he had silenced much of the home crowd, who expected Warrington - a 1-3 favourite with bookmakers - to make light work of a man he had beaten twice at amateur level.\n\nA cuffing right hand from Warrington caught the eye in the seventh but the scoring will undoubtedly prompt controversy, as there were clear pockets of action where Galahad's movement was smart and his infrequent punching accurate.\n\nWarrington's father and trainer Sean O'Hagan told his fighter Galahad was \"having the night of his life\" and implored the champion to \"do it for nine minutes\" in the closing three rounds if he was to keep his belt.\n\nAnd in truth, the final few rounds were where Warrington showed glimpses of the work-rate which earned him eye-catching wins over Lee Selby and Carl Frampton in 2018.\n\nHe still soaked up single shots - a smart uppercut in the 10th and a straight left in the 12th in particular - but drove forward to land work of his own and take a win that can perhaps take him and his army of fans across the Atlantic Ocean at last.\n\nWarrington's father and trainer Sean O'Hagan: \"That was a very tight fight and it came down to the last two rounds. I think it was terrible refereeing and how many warnings do you need before deducting points? That was not one of Josh's best performance and we were at about 70% there tonight. We will have to be better than than Stateside.\"\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live analyst Jamie Moore: \"I believe he has done enough. It was a really close contest but I scored it nine rounds to three to Josh Warrington.\"\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live analyst Andy Lee: \"Those rounds were extremely close and I'm sure there are people in the Kid Galahad corner who will feel it was unjust but I think it was just the right result.\"\n\nSuper-middleweight Billy Joe Saunders: \"Robbery. Kid Galahad put it all on the line.\"\n\nFormer world super-middleweight champion Caleb Truax: \"Dull fight but Galahad did a brilliant job of negating Warrington's activity. Didn't score it round for round but I think Galahad won it.\"\n\nWhere next for Warrington?\n\nWarrington had talked of big American fights long before Galahad was made his mandatory challenger and the three other belt holders at 126lbs - WBA champion Leo Santa Cruz, WBC belt-holder Gary Russell Jr and WBO king Oscar Valdez - are all viable options.\n\n\"I felt like I was one more hurdle away from getting to the States and had I slipped now, it would have been even further away so I think I put pressure on myself at how bad I wanted it,\" said Warrington.\n\n\"There's no-one left for me to fight over here. I don't want to be coming back here and defending the title against some bloke who works at the car-wash on the York Road.\n\n\"If I can get my own way, I'd like to go to America for the memories and the experience.\"\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live analyst Lee added: \"He knew he had to just get past this one and those kind of fights are hard to get yourself up for.\n\n\"How many times can he go to the well? He has had three gruelling fights and he needs to go to the US now. If he has to fight in the UK again he will not have the same performances he has had before.\"\n\nMexico's Valdez - who has 26 wins from 26 and 20 via stoppage - has been talked up as the most likely opponent waiting for Warrington.\n\nSuch a bout in Las Vegas or New York will allow the Leeds fighter the chance to take his huge following to America in what many have said could offer a throwback to some of the rowdy nights former two-weight world champion Ricky Hatton once enjoyed Stateside.\n\nHis performance will have to improve but the wins over Selby and Frampton made clear the fact Warrington can rise for key occasions.", "Sinn Féin's Michelle O'Neill criticised the performance of the secretary of state who is chairing the talks\n\nThe latest round of talks to restore devolution in Northern Ireland should not be suspended for the summer, Sinn Féin's Michelle O'Neill has said.\n\nShe was asked to respond to speculation that the cross-party talks, which began on 7 May, could be paused shortly.\n\nMrs O'Neill said the process so far has been \"tinkering round the edges\" and has not addressed the real problems.\n\nHowever, DUP leader Arlene Foster later tweeted that Sinn Féin \"expect everyone else to accede\" to their demands.\n\nMrs O'Neill also said talks chair Karen Bradley had \"failed left, right and centre\" in her role as secretary of state.\n\nAppearing on BBC Northern Ireland's Sunday Politics, the Sinn Féin vice president said talks should continue until a deal is reached.\n\nShe said any suggestion of a suspension was \"just speculation\".\n\n\"It's not something which the governments have discussed with any of the parties, they certainly haven't talked about it with us.\n\n\"I think the process itself has been constructive to a point, but it hasn't actually crunched down and actually dealt with the issues which we need to deal with in order to restore the institutions.\"\n\nAsked if her party would attend a summer drinks reception at Stormont House on Tuesday, which is to be hosted by Mrs Bradley, she replied: \"Absolutely not.\"\n\nArlene Foster said Sinn Féin's demands \"needs to change\"\n\n\"I think it's fairly typical of Karen Bradley and her whole approach to citizens here.\n\n\"Throughout her tenure in office as secretary of state, she has failed even to give any pretence of impartiality.\n\n\"She has failed in terms of her understanding of our politics and our people; she has failed the historical institutional abuse victims; she has failed the victims of the past; she has failed left, right and centre in my opinion.\"\n\nArlene Foster later tweeted that Sinn Féin's demands \"needs to change so we can get agreement which respects all parts of our divided society\".\n\nShe added: \"We continue to engage to find agreement.

Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service's (GMFRS) ability to respond to attacks were raised by government inspectors.\n\nThe chief fire officer said it only applied to a marauding firearms attack.\n\nEmployers and the government were to blame for a dispute that sparked the closure of the unit, union bosses said.\n\nThe FBU said specially-trained firefighters who were in the unit would previously have been able to enter an area where an attacker had been which was in a police cordon.\n\nIn an event of this kind GMFRS would rely on fire crews from neighbouring Merseyside to attend the incident, inspectors said.\n\nHer Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services said GMFRS had not had the capability to respond to some terror-related incidents since before Christmas because of the dispute.\n\nInspector of fire and rescue Zoe Billingham said it could take up to an an hour for firefighters coming from Merseyside to be mobilised and provide specialist support in Greater Manchester.\n\n\"The delay in any emergency service responding to a terror attack could very well cost lives,\" she said.\n\nJim Wallace, chief fire officer, said crews in Greater Manchester could respond to all other forms of terror attack.\n\n\"It is important to stress that this applies to a very specific type of terrorist incident which is thankfully extremely rare,\" he

and they focus on restoring dopamine levels.\n\nBut the KCL research team, writing in Lancet Neurology, suggest that changes in the brain's serotonin levels come first - and could act as an early warning sign.\n\nThe researchers looked at the brains of 14 people from remote villages in southern Greece and Italy who all have rare mutations in the SNCA gene, making them almost certain to develop the disease.\n\nHalf of this group had already been diagnosed with Parkinson's and half had not yet shown any symptoms, making them ideal for studying how the disease develops.\n\nBy comparing their brains with another 65 patients with Parkinson's and 25 healthy volunteers, the researchers were able to pinpoint early brain changes in patients in their 20s and 30s.\n\nThese were found in the serotonin system, a chemical which has many functions in the brain, including mood, appetite, cognition, wellbeing and movement.\n\nLead study author Prof Marios Politis, from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King's, said the abnormalities had been found long before movement problems had begun and before dopamine levels had changed.\n\n\"Our results suggest that early detection of changes in the serotonin system could open doors to the development of new therapies to slow, and ultimately prevent, progression of Parkinson's disease,\" he said.\n\nProf Derek Hill, professor of medical imaging at University College London, said the research provided some valuable insights but also had some limitations.\n\n\"Their results may not scale up to larger studies,\" he said.\n\n\"Secondly, the imaging method they used is highly specialised and limited to a very small number of research centres, so isn't yet usable either to help diagnose patients or even to evaluate novel treatments in large clinical studies.\n\n\"The research does, however, provide encouragement for the approach of trying to treat Parkinson's disease at the earliest possible stage, which is likely to be the best chance of preventing the rising number of people whose lives are destroyed by this hideous disease.\"\n\nDr Beckie Port, research manager at charity Parkinson's UK, said: \"Further research is needed to fully understand the importance of this discovery - but if it is able to unlock a tool to measure and monitor how Parkinson's develops, it could change countless lives.\"\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "A UK ticketholder has come forward to claim a £123m EuroMillions prize, the third biggest amount ever to be won.\n\nCamelot said it had received a claim for the £123,458,008 jackpot, which was won by a single ticket in the draw on 11 June.\n\nThe operator had previously appealed for the winner to come forward and urged players to \"check, double-check and triple-check\" their tickets.\n\nIt is unknown if the ticketholder is a single person, a family or a syndicate.\n\nPlayers have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim a prize.\n\nIf the winner is an individual, the fortune will catapult them into the Sunday Times' Rich List of the 1,000 wealthiest people living in the UK or with British business links.\n\nAlthough EuroMillions is played in nine European countries, four of the biggest jackpots in 2019 have been claimed in the UK.\n\nPrior to this month's winning draw, the biggest prize in 2019 was in a special draw on New Year's Day.\n\nPatrick and Frances Connolly from Northern Ireland won the £114.9m prize.\n\nAde Goodchild, from Hereford, banked £71m in March and an anonymous ticket-holder bagged £35.2m in April.", "Now, there's no doubt that Boris Johnson is, at this stage (and there's a long way to go), widely expected to end up in Number 10.\n\nBut this result is an enormous relief to his camp, for the simple reason that they think Jeremy Hunt is easier to beat.\n\nForget any differences in style between the two challengers and their comparative talents -

The police were never informed and there was no internal, Church-led investigation.\n\nHe fled the UK in 1985 - later to be tracked down by the BBC at a caravan park in California - after being confronted by a victim.\n\nThe BBC documentary led to the cardinal issuing a press release complaining about anti-Catholic bias.\n\nDespite multiple allegations against him, Father Robinson continued to receive financial support from the Archdiocese for seven years.\n\nHe was found guilty in 2010 of 21 child sex abuse offences against four boys - some 40 years after complaints were first made to the Church in the 1970s and 80s.\n\nThe panel said that the hurt and damage caused by Robinson had been compounded by Cardinal Nichols' press release which \"focused too much on his grievance with the programme makers and too little on the public interest in exposing the abuse committed by the clergy and the harm done to the victims of such abuse\".\n\nFather Penney admitted indecently assaulting seven children between 1969 and 1992 and was jailed for seven-and-a-half years in 1993.\n\nWhen the Archdiocese was alerted to allegations against Penney, the Vicar General - who was charged with investigating - attempted to help him evade arrest and leave the UK.\n\nProf Jay said the number of perpetrators and victims is \"likely to be far higher than the figures suggest\" and the consequences of the Church's failings \"cannot be overstated\".\n\nThe report also concluded that the Birmingham Archdiocese continues to fall short in its child safeguarding arrangements.\n\nIn a statement, the Archdiocese said it accepts it has \"failed victims and survivors\" and apologised for \"the grievous failings we have made in the past\".\n\nIt said it has \"fundamentally changed its practices and processes to ensure an open and compassionate approach to victims and survivors\".\n\nThe BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.", "Working long hours is linked to an increased risk of stroke, researchers say.\n\nLong hours were defined in the French study as more than 10 hours on at least 50 days per year.\n\nPeople who did long hours for more than a decade were at the greatest risk of stroke, they suggest.\n\nBut the UK's Stroke Association said there were lots of things people could do to counteract the effects of long hours, like exercising and eating well.\n\nThe researchers, from Angers University and the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research, looked at data on age, smoking and working hours from a population study of more than 143,000 adults.\n\nJust under a third worked long hours, with 10% working long hours for 10 years or more.\n\nOverall, 1,224 had had a stroke.\n\nWriting in the American Heart Association's journal Stroke, the researchers say people working long hours had a 29% greater risk of stroke, and those doing so for 10 years or more had a 45% greater risk.\n\nPart-time workers and those who suffered strokes before working long hours were excluded from the study.\n\nDr Alexis Descatha, who led the research added: \"The association between 10 years of long work hours and stroke seemed stronger for people under the age of 50. This was unexpected. Further research is needed to explore this finding.\n\n\"As a clinician, I will advise my patients to work more efficiently and I plan to follow my own advice.\"\n\nThis study looked at numbers, rather than reasons, but other research has found people who run their own businesses, CEOs and managers seem less affected by long hours - as opposed to those working irregular shifts and nights, or who have job-related stress.\n\nDr Richard Francis, head of research at the Stroke Association, said: \"There are lots of simple things you can do to reduce the risk of a stroke, even if you work long hours.\n\n\"Eating a healthy diet, finding the time to exercise, stopping smoking and getting the recommended amount of sleep can make a big difference to your health.\"", "President Donald Trump's nominee for ambassador to the United Nations has broken with his viewpoint on climate change, saying it \"poses real risks\".\n\nKelly Craft told lawmakers at her confirmation hearing she would \"be an advocate for all countries to do their part in addressing climate change\".\n\nIn the past, she had claimed to believe \"both sides\" of the climate debate.\n\nMr Trump has previously called climate change a \"hoax\" and questioned the scientific consensus on the matter.\n\nEarlier this month, Mr Trump said climate change \"goes both ways\" and blamed other nations for worsening air and water quality.\n\nIn 2017, he pulled the US out of the landmark Paris climate agreement, saying the deal was disadvantageous to US workers.\n\nMrs Craft who is currently serving as the ambassador to Canada, had offered a similar opinion in 2017, telling CBC she believed \"there are scientists on both sides that are accurate\".\n\nBut she reversed that viewpoint on Wednesday, telling the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that \"human behaviour has contributed to the changing climate\".\n\n\"Let there be no doubt: I take this matter seriously.\"\n\nShe also acknowledged \"that fossil fuels have played a part in climate change\".\n\nHowever, Mrs Craft did support Mr Trump's decision to withdraw from the Paris accord, saying the US did not have to \"be part of an agreement to be leaders\".\n\nShe added that the US should not have to assume \"an outsized burden on behalf of the rest of the world\".\n\nMr Trump's nominee has been under scrutiny over her ties to the coal industry as she is married to Joseph Craft III, the head of Alliance Resource Partners, one of the country's largest coal companies.\n\nAfter being grilled by Democrats on how she would handle fossil fuel discussions in the UN, Mrs Craft pledged to recuse herself from such talks if the ethics agreement called for it.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nIf confirmed, Mrs Craft would replace Nikki Haley, who resigned last October.\n\nMeanwhile, the Trump administration has continued to roll back environmental protections.\n\nThe latest such effort on Wednesday loosened restrictions on coal-fired power plants. The measure, signed by Environmental Protection Agency chief Andrew Wheeler, will allow individual states to determine if coal plants should reduce emissions.\n\nThe new measure replaces an Obama-era plan that sought to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\n\nEnvironmentalists have criticised the new policy, saying it will worsen fossil fuel emissions, while Republican lawmakers from coal industry states praised the move.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

I don't understand why she didn't see us and drive back to her side.\"\n\nCeredigion coroner Peter Brunton said it had been \"an extremely sad and tragic inquest\".\n\nHe added it all came down to the manner in which the Subaru was being driven during the \"catastrophic seconds\" when Mrs Younger turned to give attention to her daughter.\n\nHe said it appeared the car travelled for a significant period of time on the wrong side of the road and Mrs Younger did nothing to slow down or to get the car on the correct side.", "John Worboys was jailed in 2009 for a string of sex attacks on women in his taxi\n\n\"Black cab rapist\" John Worboys has admitted attacks on four more women.\n\nThe 62-year-old taxi driver was jailed in 2009 for a string of sex assaults on 12 victims in London.\n\nHe pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to administering a drug with the intention of carrying out indecent assaults, rape or sexual activity on four women, and will be sentenced on 2 September.\n\nWorboys, from Enfield, targeted women who hailed his cab and drugged them in order to sexually assault them.\n\nThe defendant, who now uses the name John Derek Radford, was jailed for at least eight years after his first trial for the attacks carried out between 2006 and 2008.\n\nA previous hearing in the latest case was told one victim hailed Worboys' taxi in London's West End in 2000 or 2001.\n\nProsecutors said the defendant told her he had won money on the horses before offering her champagne laced with drugs. She awoke the next day naked and with no memory of what happened after accepting the drink.\n\nWorboys would win victims' trust before pouring them a glass of drug-laced alcohol\n\nThe second complainant was a university student targeted in 2003 after leaving a nightclub on New Oxford Street, in \"an identical method to not only the first count, but a number of previous convictions and allegations three and four\", the court heard.\n\nPolice believe Worboys may have carried out more than 100 rapes and sexual assaults. He was told after his first trial he would be held in custody as long as he was deemed a danger to the public.\n\nLast year, the Parole Board ruled he should remain in prison citing his \"sense of sexual entitlement\" and desire to control women.\n\nOne of his two victims who won a High Court ruling preventing Warboys' release said she was \"completely in shock\" at his guilty plea.\n\n\"Whilst I can't help being cynical about his motives, I am pleased that his victims have been saved the trauma of a court case,\" she said.\n\nAlthough the Parole Board had already decided that in November after reconsidering his case on the orders of the High Court, these convictions are almost certain to lead to him serving much longer behind bars; he may even get a life sentence.\n\nThat's important for his victims and for public safety.\n\nBut his guilty pleas - two of which relate to offences between 2000 and 2003 - are also significant because they prove the former cab driver's crimes stretched further back than he had previously admitted.\n\nWorboys told the parole panel which originally sanctioned his release that his offending started towards the end of 2006, triggered by the breakdown of a relationship.\n\nIn the words of Phillippa Kaufmann, the barrister who led the legal challenge, Worboys' account of his criminal behaviour has now been \"entirely undermined\".\n\nWorboys admitted two counts of administering a stupefying or overpowering drug with intent to commit rape or indecent assault and two of administering a substance with intent to commit a sexual offence.\n\nGregor McGill, legal director of the Crown Prosecution Service, described Worboys as a \"sexual predator\".\n\nHe said: \"Worboys has left countless victims feeling traumatised, anxious and violated.

When Snap went public in 2017, it paid about $85m to its financial advisers.\n\nSpotify's listing is generally regarded as a success, although the shares now trade about 15% below their debut price.\n\nIf Slack can also make a success of its direct listing, it could have implications for how future tech firms come to market, including for Airbnb.\n\nSlack's software replaces emails by grouping messages around subjects, projects and teams.

Cheryl Gillan announces Michael Gove is voted out of the Conservative leadership race,\n\nJeremy Hunt has promised Boris Johnson \"the fight of his life\" as the two compete to become the next Conservative leader and PM.\n\nMr Johnson said he was \"honoured\" to get the backing of 160 MPs in the final ballot of the party's MPs - more than half of the total.\n\nMr Hunt got 77 votes - two more votes than the next candidate Michael Gove.\n\nMr Johnson and Mr Hunt now face a vote involving up to 160,000 Tory members, with a result due by late July.\n\nAll 313 Conservative MPs took part in the final ballot in the House of Commons, with one paper spoilt.\n\nMr Johnson's victory in the latest round of the contest had been widely expected, but Environment Secretary Mr Gove and Foreign Secretary Mr Hunt had been engaged for several days in a fight for second place.\n\nIn the penultimate MPs' ballot, earlier on Thursday, Mr Gove overtook his rival, only to see his lead reversed in the final vote.\n\nBefore the final vote, a source close to Mr Hunt warned against reigniting the \"personal psychodrama\" between Mr Gove and Mr Johnson - who spearheaded the Vote Leave campaign together in 2016, but fell out after Mr Gove abandoned Mr Johnson's previous leadership bid to launch his own.\n\nFollowing the result of the final ballot, Mr Johnson tweeted that he was \"deeply honoured\" by his level of support.\n\nMeanwhile, Mr Hunt, acknowledged Mr Johnson as frontrunner to become party leader and prime minister, tweeting that he was the \"underdog\" but in politics \"surprises happen\".\n\nHe went on to praise Mr Gove as one of the \"brightest stars in the Conservative team\" and pledged to \"give Boris the fight of his life.\"\n\nMr Gove congratulated his rivals and said he was \"naturally disappointed but so proud of the campaign we ran\".\n\nHis campaign manager, Mel Stride, said he believed that Mr Gove's admission that he had taken cocaine during the 1990s had damaged his bid, adding: \"It stalled us and meant momentum was lost at that time.\"\n\nThere's no doubt that Mr Johnson is, at this stage (and there's a long way to go), widely expected to end up in Number 10.\n\nBut this result is an enormous relief to his camp, for the simple reason that they think Mr Hunt is easier to beat.\n\nForget any differences in style between the two challengers and their comparative talents - Jeremy Hunt voted Remain in the EU referendum.\n\nAnd for many Tory members it is a priority for the next leader to have been committed to that cause, rather than a recent convert, however zealous.\n\nMr Johnson and Mr Hunt will now take part in hustings in front of Conservative Party members around the country, before the votes are counted, with the final result to be announced during the week of 22 July.\n\nThey will also take part in a head-to-head debate on ITV on 9 July, following previous leadership debates hosted by Channel 4 and the BBC.\n\nMr Hunt has been in the cabinet since 2010. Before he became Foreign Secretary, he was the UK's longest-serving Health Secretary. Former Foreign Secretary Mr Johnson, who quit the cabinet last year over Theresa May's Brexit strategy is one of the UK's most recognisable politicians and was Mayor of London from 2008 to 2016.\n\nThe Conservatives said there had been 20,000 applications for places at the 16 leadership hustings around the UK. Party chairman Brandon Lewis congratulated the final two contenders.\n\nHe said: \"We are conscious that the Conservatives are not just selecting a new leader but also the next prime minister, and we take that responsibility extremely seriously at such an important time for our nation.\"\n\nLabour's national campaigns co-ordinator Andrew Gwynne said: \"What a choice: the man who broke the NHS or the man who wants to sell it to Donald Trump.\n\n\"A handful of unrepresentative Conservative members should not be choosing our next prime minister. People should decide through a general election.\"\n\nThe ballot of MPs earlier on Thursday saw Home Secretary Sajid Javid eliminated from the contest.", "Shares in Dixons Carphone have plunged after it reported a full-year loss and said its mobile phone arm would make a \"significant loss\" this year.\n\nThe retailer lost £259m in the year to 27 April, compared with a pre-tax profit of £289m last year.\n\nIn December, the retailer wrote down the value of its mobile business, Carphone Warehouse.\n\nOne analyst said the division was \"on life support\" in an \"evolving\" mobile market.\n\nIt has suffered because people are renewing their handsets less often and demand for mobile contracts is down.\n\nLast year, it announced the closure of 92 of its 700 stores.\n\nThe company - which also owns the Currys PC World chain - added that it was set to take \"more pain\" in the coming year amid \"a deterioration in the forecast performance of the UK and Ireland mobile business\".\n\nHaving plunged by about a quarter at the start of trading, Dixons Carphone shares recovered some ground to trade about 12% lower.\n\nGroup chief executive Alex Baldock said the UK mobile market was \"changing in the way we described in December, but doing so faster\".\n\n\"So, we're moving faster to respond.\"\n\nHe said the company had renegotiated all its legacy network contracts with mobile operators, developed a new \"customer offer\" and was accelerating the combination of its mobile and electrical goods businesses.\n\n\"This means taking more pain in the coming year, when mobile will make a significant loss,\" he said.\n\nHowever, he added: \"We expect mobile will at least break even within two years, and beyond that, equipped with a stronger and unconstrained offer, we will of course aim to do better.\"\n\nRichard Hunter, head of markets at Interactive Investor, said the \"rapidly evolving\" nature of the mobile business had \"threatened to leave Dixons behind\".\n\n\"The mobile business in particular is on life support, draining capital and resources prior to its integration with the electricals business.\"\n\nThe loss reported by Dixons Carphone was mainly due to one-off charges of £557m, the majority of which was caused by the writedown in the value of the Carphone Warehouse business in December.\n\nWhen the charges are stripped out, Dixon's Carphone made a profit of £298m - although that was still a 22% fall from the previous year.\n\nRevenue across the group dipped 1% to £10.43bn.\n\nThe electrical goods business gained market share in all territories, and Mr Baldock said this side of the company was expected to grow sales and headline profits this year.\n\nEmma-Lou Montgomery, associate director from Fidelity Personal Investing's share dealing service, said: \"While elsewhere in the group the five-year plan is going to plan - if not a little better - the mobile phone business is under considerable strain as customers demand flexibility, are sticking with their old phones for longer and Carphone is dragged down by binding network contracts.\"\n\nFor many years, Carphone Warehouse hasn't sold carphones in warehouses, but despite that, the company has continued to prosper. Now it is suddenly looking about as up-to-date as one of those bricks toted by Michael Douglas in Wall Street.\n\nAccording to analyst Ben Wood at CCS Insight, there's been a sudden and radical change in the way people buy mobile phones.\n\nA survey carried out by his firm found a third of consumers saying they intended to hold on to their current phones for longer than their previous handsets - even extending renewal time by a few months means a big drop in annual sales.\n\nThe UK market peaked in 2012, when 31 million were sold. This year, CCS Insight expects that to fall to below 18 million.\n\nAnd while the habit of going into a shop to research and buy a new phone has been stubbornly persistent, it is now fading. The survey showed 21% of buyers said they did absolutely no research.\n\n\"People know what they want,\" says Ben Wood. \"And in any case, all smartphones are pretty samey these days.\"\n\nWith more people buying online or direct from mobile operators, phone shops may soon be another of the High Street's endangered species.", "Boris Johnson, the UK's new prime minister, was already one of the UK's most recognisable politicians.\n\nHis high profile - built up as an MP, London mayor and foreign secretary - has often seen his achievements accompanied by controversy.\n\nAs editor of the Spectator magazine and a Have I Got News For You contestant, Boris Johnson was already well known for his shambolic persona.\n\nIn 2001, he became an MP, replacing Michael Heseltine in the safe Conservative seat of Henley-on-Thames.\n\nHe was considered more liberal than many Tories. As a journalist, he had questioned the repeal of laws banning the promotion of homosexuality by local authorities. But as an MP, he changed tack and said the state should not interfere in people's lives. He also voted in favour of civil partnerships.\n\nBoris Johnson during one of his Have I Got News For You appearances, in 2004\n\nIn October 2004, then Conservative leader Michael Howard ordered him to visit Liverpool to apologise for a Spectator article accusing its residents of wallowing in \"disproportionate\" grief after Ken Bigley - an engineer from the city - was kidnapped and killed in Iraq.\n\nAnd the following month, he was sacked as shadow arts minister, amid claims he had misled Mr Howard about reports of an affair with Spectator columnist Petronella Wyatt.\n\nNevertheless, a year later, he was on the rise again - resigning from his Spectator post when new Tory leader David Cameron made him shadow higher education minister.\n\nHowever, he continued to write for the Telegraph and had to make another apology - to a whole country - after he linked Papua New Guinea to \"cannibalism and chief-killing\" in a column.\n\nBy 2007, the Henley MP had his sights set on one of the biggest jobs in UK politics.\n\nTaking over from Labour's Ken Livingstone in 2008, Boris Johnson remained London mayor until 2016. It is the longest continuous period of public office that he has held.\n\nHe's often spoken of what he considers to be his biggest achievements during that period: on crime, housing and transport.\n\nThis Twitter post cannot be displayed in your browser.

However, it was also falling during his predecessor's second term.\n\nAnd in the first few years after Mr Johnson took over, knife crime rose by over 15% - although from 2012-13 onwards it started to fall.\n\nMr Johnson had backed the police use of stop-and-search powers to tackle violent crime. And he said he would ensure police numbers would go up despite central government cuts.\n\nHome Office figures show police numbers in London rose slightly, from 31,460 to 32,125, between March 2008 and March 2016. Across England and Wales in that period the number of officers fell by 17,603.\n\nThere was an increase in the number of affordable homes built - 101,525 by the end of March 2016, of which the Greater London Authority contributed to 94,001. This was a rise compared with the two terms of Mr Livingstone, although the definition of affordable housing had changed in 2011 so the figures are not directly comparable.\n\nHe scrapped the so-called bendy buses - which he said were too big for narrow streets and encouraged fare-dodgers.\n\nIn their place, he introduced a new version of the popular Routemaster London bus - a move that was criticised as a vanity project. There were complaints about non-opening windows and problems with the hybrid engines. They also cost considerably more than a normal bus.\n\nOne of his most famous transport initiatives was the so-called \"Boris Bike\" cycle scheme, introduced in July 2010.\n\nMr Johnson regularly promoted the hire bikes by riding them himself and the number of rentals reached more than 10.3 million during his last year as mayor.\n\nHowever, critics pointed to the £11m-a-year cost of keeping the bikes on the road. Others pointed out that plans for a bike hire scheme had been announced while Mr Livingstone had been mayor.\n\nAs mayor, Mr Johnson became involved in overseeing arrangements for the 2012 Olympics, planning for which started after they were awarded to London in 2005.\n\nOne of the most memorable moments was when he got stuck on a zip wire, while celebrating the UK's first gold medal win. The Olympics were widely seen as a success and there were claims that they had provided a major economic boost.\n\nBut there were also questions raised about the Olympics' legacy, including criticism of the conversion of the Olympic Stadium into a football ground. In 2017, an independent review said the conversion had cost £323m - far more than the original estimate of £190m.\n\nThe latter part of his time as mayor saw a plan to build a garden bridge over the River Thames as a memorial to Princess Diana.\n\nThe pedestrian-only bridge, with trees and plants, which was first suggested by the actress Joanna Lumley in 1998, was to be funded by private and public money.\n\nBut it was cancelled in 2017, after a review recommended the project be scrapped - £53m had already been spent on the project; £43m of which came from the public purse.\n\nMr Johnson decided he wanted to return to Parliament before his term as mayor ended, in 2016. He won the seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip in 2015.\n\nAfter resuming life as an MP, he declared his opposition to expanding nearby Heathrow airport, saying he would lie in front of the bulldozers.\n\nAs London mayor, he had promoted an alternative scheme, for an island airport in the Thames estuary, an idea rejected on cost and environmental grounds.\n\nBut Mr Johnson was noticeably absent when MPs subsequently voted on Heathrow expansion in June 2018, as he was on an official trip to Afghanistan.\n\nMr Johnson had been appointed foreign secretary by the new prime minister, Theresa May, in 2016.\n\nHe had also run in the Tory leadership campaign that year but dramatically pulled out after Michael Gove's surprise decision to enter the race.\n\nThe job as foreign secretary was seen as an acknowledgement of his role as a leading figure in the campaign to leave the EU.\n\nHowever, there was also some surprise at the choice, with Lib Dem leader Tim Farron saying he would \"spend more time apologising to nations he's offended\" than working as foreign secretary.\n\nAnd there were the disparaging comments about other countries and their leaders - some of which were made before he got the job.\n\nThey included a Limerick - which won a £1,000 award in 2016 - about Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and a goat. And he said the Libyan city of Sirte could be the new Dubai if \"they... clear the dead bodies away\".\n\nAs foreign secretary, Mr Johnson supported a tough line against Russia, with the expulsion of its diplomats after the poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia Skripal.\n\nTwenty-nine countries, including the US, Canada, Australia and EU states, joined the UK, expelling more than 140 Russian diplomats in a co-ordinated move.\n\nNazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been detained in Iran since 2016\n\nBut in the case of British Iranian national Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, jailed in Iran, Mr Johnson had to apologise in Parliament.\n\nHe had said she had been teaching journalists in Iran when she had been detained, contradicting her statement that she had been on holiday at the time.\n\nHe later clarified that she had in fact been on holiday but has also said he does not believe his remarks made a difference to her plight - a claim rejected by her family.\n\nA few days after Mr Johnson made his remarks, Zaghari-Ratcliffe was summoned before an Iranian judge, to face charges of engaging in propaganda against the regime.\n\nAs foreign secretary, he also earned a rebuke from Downing Street, after comments emerged in which he had criticised close ally Saudi Arabia for engaging in proxy wars in the Middle East.\n\nNevertheless, he continued to allow sales of UK arms to Saudi Arabia, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen.\n\nIn 2018, Mr Johnson also faced criticism after writing in the Daily Telegraph that Muslim women wearing the burka \"looked like letterboxes\".\n\nBy this stage, though, he had left the government, resigning in protest at Theresa May's Brexit plan.\n\nBoris Johnson was a leading figure in the Vote Leave campaign during the 2016 EU referendum.\n\nHe became well known for his attacks on the EU and for advocating the benefits of Brexit. He declared that he was \"pro-having cake and pro-eating it\".\n\nBut it hadn't always been clear which side he would support.\n\nIn fact, while mayor of London, he'd spoken of the benefits of being in the single market.\n\nAnd in an article for the Daily Telegraph in 2013, weighing up the pros and cons of being in the EU, he had said that leaving would not solve the UK's problems.\n\nHowever, he also made clear he supported plans to ask the British people to decide about EU membership.\n\nDuring the Brexit campaign, he came under sustained criticism from those in favour of Remain, for his claims about the benefits of leaving and what he called \"taking back control\".\n\nMost controversial was a claim about how much money the UK sent to the EU. The £350m-a-week figure, which appeared on the side of a bus during the campaign, recently led to an unsuccessful attempt to prosecute him. Critics pointed out at the time that the figure was wrong as it did not take into account the UK's rebate, or indeed money subsequently spent in the UK.\n\nFor his part, Mr Johnson dismissed warnings that leaving the EU could spark a recession, describing one such study as propaganda.\n\nAnd he has continued to advocate a harder form of Brexit, sharply criticising both the deal that Mrs May agreed and her whole approach to the negotiations with the EU.\n\nHe described it as leading the UK into the \"status of a colony\", in his resignation letter, in July 2018.\n\nMr Johnson has continued to insist that the UK can and should leave the EU by 31 October, with or without a deal.", "The review follows criticism of a televised debate between contenders in the Tory leadership contest\n\nThe BBC is to review whether \"additional steps\" should be taken when vetting guests for political debates.\n\nThe broadcaster was criticised over those given a chance to ask questions during its televised debate between candidates in the Tory leadership race.\n\nIt emerged that one guest had shared allegedly anti-Semitic tweets - he was later suspended from his job.\n\nA BBC spokeswoman said \"vetting and transparency\" of guests for political programmes would be reviewed.\n\n\"We have a long history of producing successful debate programmes and this was no different,\" she said.\n\nShe said it would be \"odd\" to have members of the public as contributors who all agreed \"with the politics of those they are questioning\".\n\n\"We did however, adopt a different format for this programme and we will look at whether there are additional steps we might take on vetting and transparency should we repeat it in the future,\" she added.\n\nOn Wednesday the broadcaster defended its vetting process after tweets by Imam Abdullah Patel came to light.\n\nThe BBC said Mr Patel re-activated a previously inactive Twitter profile in the aftermath of Tuesday's programme, Our Next Prime Minister.\n\nThe tweets had not been visible to its researchers before then, the BBC said.\n\nA screenshot of Mr Patel's Twitter feed from 2014 posted on the Guido Fawkes website showed he shared a graphic of Israel's outline superimposed on a map of the US under the headline \"Solution for Israel-Palestine conflict - relocate Israel into United States\".\n\nLabour MP Naz Shah was temporarily suspended from her party three years ago after it emerged she had shared the same image on Facebook.\n\nMr Patel would not have been selected for the programme if it had been \"aware of the views he expressed\", the broadcaster said.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

There needed to be clearer regulations to support schools.\n\nDamian Hinds is warning about the impact of an online culture of selfies and fake images\n\n\"I don't think it's something we can ignore and let individual schools sort out,\" said Mr Schleicher.\n\nMr Hinds called for social media celebrities to think more about \"what they are putting on their platform. Is it honest? Is it authentic? Is it too image focused?\"\n\nHe said the round-the-clock presence of mobile phones added to the pressure and that no one was \"immune from online cruelty\".\n\n\"All bullying is shameful but cyber-bullying is particularly cowardly and pernicious,\" said the education secretary.\n\nBut he said lessons about relationships, which will become part of the curriculum next year, will teach young people about the \"importance of safe and acceptable behaviour online\".", "The international trade secretary said he couldn't possibly contemplate two former journalists in the final.\n\nAfter voting for Jeremy Hunt, he told some of us gathered outside the parliamentary polling booth that it was the party's job to \"provide good governance - not entertainment\".\n\nPrivately, Team Hunt successfully urged Conservative MPs to avoid a \"psychodrama\" as the final two compete for the votes of Conservative members.\n\nThe Gove team failed to persuade enough MPs to put two veterans of Vote Leave in the final.\n\nApparently best buddies during the EU referendum campaign, the relationship soured in the subsequent leadership contest in 2016.\n\nMr Gove knifed Mr Johnson in the front when he abandoned the latter's campaign and launched his own.\n\nThere were suggestions that team Boris saw Mr Hunt as an easier candidate to beat and that some of his supporters lent votes to the current foreign secretary to help him see off Mr Gove's ambitions.\n\nA key Johnson aide denied this - but said he couldn't speak for others. And with Mr Johnson's own vote going up and demonstrating momentum, it's a difficult charge to prove.\n\nSo there is only one Leaver in the contest.\n\nBut Mr Hunt will portray himself as a born-again Brexiteer, who would contemplate no deal - and, as an apparently more competent minister, someone who also has more chance of delivering a deal.\n\nThe candidates' differences on Brexit seem in truth minuscule, each professing they want a deal that bins the backstop, or time limits it, despite likely opposition from Brussels.\n\nMr Johnson says it's \"feasible\" to leave on 31 October, while Mr Hunt is prepared to take a little longer if a deal seems close.\n\nBeyond Brexit, Mr Hunt will suggest that he is a champion of the least well-off, the better to contrast with Mr Johnson's ambition to take more people out of the higher tax band.\n\nHe will be willing to admit past mistakes and pledge to put them right, for example, suggesting that social care has been underfunded.\n\nAnd he will point to prominent Remainers and Brexiteers on his team to suggest he can bring the party and country back together.\n\nBut Mr Johnson has two clear advantages with the members.\n\nFirst, he will cite polling to say only he has the chance of beating Labour if there is an early election. a distinct possibility for a leader of a minority government.\n\nSecond, he has the ability to make the party feel good about itself. He paints a big picture in vivid primary colours.\n\nMr Hunt has survived running the big-spending frontline Department of Health and Social Care but he may need to display more inspiration than perspiration as the contest moves to the country and the two candidates go head to head in 16 hustings.\n\nMr Johnson certainly has plenty of political opponents but often his worst enemy is himself.\n\nMr Hunt will be hoping his gaffe prone competitor will lose the plot and then lose the contest.\n\nBut so far Mr Johnson has reined in his characteristic eloquence, and exercised a quality many had thought would always elude him: discipline.\n\nThe stakes are high - the prize is the premiership, not just the Conservative leadership - so it would be surprising if the forthcoming contest didn't throw up heat as well as light.", "Boohoo's first recycled range will be made with reclaimed plastics\n\n\"If someone really cared about buying ethically sourced, green clothes then they wouldn't shop at Boohoo,\" shopper Camilla tells the BBC on Oxford Street.\n\nShe is commenting on the fast fashion retailer's first recycled clothing range - made with reclaimed plastics - which was unveiled this week.\n\nThe 22-year-old's view is not surprising, given the millions of low cost, fast fashion clothes that Boohoo sells every year.\n\nBut while it's easy to dismiss the move as a marketing gimmick, Boohoo claims it is planning other green initiatives, and others have welcomed the new collection as a \"starting point\".\n\n\"It is good for people to try recycled clothes and see that they are just like normal clothes,\" says shopper Esme, 16.\n\n\"I'm glad they are engaging because they are unlikely to change their supply chain overnight,\" adds Dr Patsy Perry, senior lecturer in fashion marketing at the University of Manchester.\n\nBoohoo says its 34-piece range is made with recycled polyester that had been destined for landfills and uses no environmentally unfriendly dyes or chemicals.\n\nThe dresses, bodysuits, flares and crop tops have also been made entirely in the UK to cut air pollution.\n\nZara is one of a growing number of retailers to launch recycled collections\n\nHowever, some have noted that the range was unveiled on the same day the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC) issued a critical report on the fast fashion industry that mentioned Boohoo.\n\nThe MPs warned companies were creating huge amounts of waste by selling cheap clothes designed only to be worn a few times.\n\nThey also said the synthetic fabrics used to make such garments shed micro-fibres when washed, polluting waterways.\n\n\"The problem of clothing waste driven by rising volumes and lower prices in recent years are unlikely to be addressed by initiatives [like Boohoo's recycled range],\" says Stella Claxton of Nottingham Trent University, who gave evidence to the EAC.\n\n\"We know that too many garments that are disposed of through retailer take-back schemes or in charity collection bins will eventually find their way into landfill.\"\n\nShe also questions just how green Boohoo's recycled fabric will be, noting that even recycled polyester clothing can take hundreds of years to decompose.\n\n\"The garments are likely to shed microfibres into waterways when they're machine washed, just like the non recycled versions,\" she adds.\n\nIn its report, the EAC made 18 proposals, including a 1p charge per garment on producers to fund better recycling of clothes, and a ban on incinerating or landfilling unsold stock that can be recycled instead.\n\nBut the government has said already it will adopt none of the policies.\n\nIn that light, Dr Perry thinks Boohoo - and others retailers that have launched green clothing ranges - should be encouraged for doing so voluntarily.\n\n\"The real test will be if Boohoo can make this financially viable,\" she says.\n\n\"Because if they don't carry on then it will seem like a token gesture and them getting on the bandwagon.\"\n\nBoohoo says it takes its environmental responsibilities \"extremely seriously\" and is encouraging its customers to wear its clothes for longer.\n\n\"We have also launched a further consumer awareness programme around washing at lower temperatures, and avoiding ironing and tumble drying where possible.\"", "Last updated on .From the section Women's Football\n\nScotland are out of the Women's World Cup after a twice-taken added-time penalty gave Argentina a dramatic draw.\n\nThe Scots needed to win and Kim Little turned in their opener with Jen Beattie and Erin Cuthbert netting from corners.\n\nIt was 3-2 after Milagros Menendez scored and a Florencia Bonsegundo shot went in via the bar and Lee Alexander.\n\nA VAR-awarded spot-kick taken by Bonsegundo was saved by Alexander but she was off her line and, agonisingly, the striker scored second time around.\n\nWith 16 minutes to play, Shelley Kerr's Scots were on course to be one of the four best third-placed sides going into Thursday's final fixtures in Groups E and F but Argentina's recovery consigned the Scots to bottom place in Group D.\n\nAnd Scotland captain Rachel Corsie was unhappy that referee Hyang-ok Ri allowed an Argentina free-kick to be taken while substitute Fiona Brown was coming on, with another substitute, Sophie Howard, ultimately penalised for her challenge on Aldana Cometti.\n• None Who did you vote player of the match?\n\nFor the third match running, Scotland conceded a penalty that cost them points.\n\nTheir opening two defeats by England and Japan had followed a similar pattern - two goals down including a spot-kick by half-time and a late rally producing a consolation goal.\n\nThe players and Kerr had spoken of the need to start the game on the front foot and that intent was clear as Cuthbert volleyed wide in the first minute.\n\nScotland's play was less nervous than it had been in the first two games but they were dealt a real scare when Mariana Larroquette headed against the crossbar from Bonsegundo's cross and Alexander had be alert to block Sole Jaimes' shot in the aftermath.\n\nThe Scots' response was brave, bold and ultimately rewarded. Cuthbert forced her way through the Argentina defence to shoot from the inside left channel and though Vanina Correa saved, Cuthbert had the presence of mind to turn the ball back for the outstretched foot of Little to touch home her 54th international strike.\n\nThe goal had come at a good time, just as Argentina were growing into the game, and the second prevented Carlos Borrello's side building any momentum at the start of the second period.\n\nCaroline Weir's initial delivery from a corner was poor but the ball was recycled and the Manchester City midfielder floated the ball perfectly on to the head of Arsenal-bound Beattie, who found the net for a 23rd time on Scotland duty.\n\nThe Scots were not content to sit on their lead and Cuthbert was not prepared to give Argentina's backline a minute's peace, forcing Correa to turn wide after another driving run.\n\nAnd the Chelsea forward got the goal her performance deserved when she tucked in the rebound after Correa had turned Leanne Crichton's header on to the post.\n\nHowever, the turning point came when Dalila Ippolito fed fellow substitute Menendez to finish calmly past Alexander before Bonsegundo's shot hit the bar and evaded the Scotland goalkeeper over the line.\n\nWith stoppage time came more twists and turns and a cruel end for Scotland.\n\nHoward tripped Cometti and the referee was advised to view the incident again. She pointed to the spot and Bonsegundo's shot was blocked by Alexander.\n\nBut VAR was called into play again with Alexander judged not to have had at least one foot touching the goalline when the kick was taken and Bonsegundo fired in the retake.\n\nThe match had already surpassed the suggested four minutes of added time and finished with a whimper with the players initially not realising the final whistle had blown as the assistant referees came on the to pitch.\n\nFormer Scotland goalkeeper Gemma Fay on BBC Four\n\nIt has to be heartbreaking. As a goalkeeper, you take your cues from the body of the striker - the way in which they plant their foot beside the ball and if they open their hips or if they don't open their hips tells you where they're going to go.\n\nLee has trained for 27 years in that way and now at a World Cup we're saying, 'no, you can't train that way, you have to train a completely different way'. It's ridiculous. I think we're going to have this World Cup decided by VAR with inexperienced officials who haven't had the ability or opportunity with this and I think that's wrong. Football should decide this World Cup, not VAR.\n\nLittle, Beattie and Cuthbert got the goals but Weir's class was every bit as vital to Scotland's periods of dominance.\n\nThe midfielder's use of the ball in both halves gave Scotland momentum and she had a hand in two of the goals.\n• None This was the first meeting between the sides.\n• None Scotland picked up their first point at a World Cup.\n• None Argentina's three goals were their first of the tournament.\n• None The Scots had five different scorers in France, each scoring once.\n• None Argentina were the only team ranked lower than Scotland in Group D.\n• None Goal!

British economy, devour a £26.6bn Brexit war chest, and risk the break-up of the UK.\n\nThe chancellor is expected to say that Conservative candidates who are vying to be the next prime minister must come up with a Brexit plan \"B\".\n\nIf they do not, he will hint that a second referendum could be needed to break the Parliamentary deadlock.\n\nHe will also pour cold water on tax and spending pledges by the candidates.\n\nMr Hammond is set to say in a speech at the annual Mansion House dinner in the City of London on Thursday that a no-deal Brexit would soak up £26.6bn that has been set aside that could otherwise be spent by an incoming prime minister.\n\nIn a BBC debate on Tuesday, leadership candidates promised tax cuts and increased spending on public services.\n\nHowever, a no-deal Brexit would mean that was not possible, and would also leave the UK economy \"permanently smaller\", Mr Hammond will say.\n\nIn March, the chancellor pledged to spend the war chest to boost the economy, if MPs voted to leave the European Union with a deal.\n\nConservative candidates including Boris Johnson have pledged to leave the EU by 31 October, even if that means quitting without a deal.\n\nBut a no-deal Brexit would \"risk the Union\", Mr Hammond is expected to say.\n\n\"I cannot imagine a Conservative and Unionist-led government, actively pursuing a no-deal Brexit; willing to risk the Union and our economic prosperity,\" he will say.\n\nScottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson told party members on Tuesday to \"take a long, hard look at themselves\" after a YouGov survey suggested 63% would back Brexit even if it meant Scotland leaving the UK.\n\nIn April, Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she would push for a second referendum on Scottish independence by 2021 if the country, which voted Remain, is taken out of the EU.\n\nMr Hammond is also expected to say that certain \"truths\" will not change no matter who is leader.\n\nUnless there is a general election, Parliament will not support a no-deal, and is unlikely to support the deal that has already been negotiated, he will say.\n\nSo candidates need to spell out their \"Plan B\", he is expected to argue.\n\nThe EU will not renegotiate Theresa May's Brexit deal, and the problem of the Irish border \"will not go away\", Mr Hammond will add, saying that Tory leadership candidates \"need to be honest with the public\".\n\nThe chancellor will also caution the men vying to lead his party that they have to \"recognise and address the difficult trade-offs inherent in delivering Brexit\".\n\nCandidates will also need to say how they will bring about Brexit without harming the economy or breaking up the UK, he will say.\n\nThe leadership contenders \"need realistic strategies for taking the UK economy out of the holding pattern in which it has been stuck for the last nine months and landing it safely on the runway marked 'prosperity Brexit'\".\n\n\"If the new prime minister cannot end the deadlock in Parliament, then he will have to explore other democratic mechanisms to break the impasse,\" Mr Hammond will add, hinting at a second referendum, or even a general election.\n\nHowever, Mr Hammond's expected speech was \"yet another example of how far the Tories are cut off from the real world,\" said Labour's shadow chancellor John McDonnell.\n\n\"Hammond's austerity policies have resulted in a near decade of suffering for hungry children, a surge in food bank use, rising in-work poverty, squeezed incomes for families and unprecedented cutbacks to public

final two candidates, here is what a Boris Johnson or a Jeremy Hunt premiership could mean for Northern Ireland.\n\nMr Johnson's main link to Northern Ireland used to be his red buses.\n\nIn 2013, the then London mayor opened a Wrightbus plant in Ballymena, County Antrim, where parts for them are made.\n\nFew would have bet that within six years he would be a frontrunner to become prime minister.\n\nBattling him for the keys to Number 10 is Mr Hunt, the foreign secretary who insists he's best placed to strengthen the union of the United Kingdom.\n\nBut what are their positions on central issues such as the political crisis in Stormont, the Tories' confidence-and-supply partners the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and the Irish border question?\n\nThis will be key for whoever takes over in Number 10 but both candidates face an uphill battle to get their preferred Brexit deal through Parliament.\n\nThe backstop is the insurance policy to maintain a seamless border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland: opposition to it brought Theresa May's time in office to an abrupt end.\n\nMr Johnson has referred to it as a \"monstrosity\" that wipes out the UK's sovereignty and he has called for the backstop to be removed from the withdrawal deal.\n\nHe believes the EU can be persuaded to reopen the agreement, but says the UK should still prepare for a no-deal Brexit.\n\nBoris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt both believe they can succeed where Theresa May failed\n\nMr Hunt has said the EU accepts that the backstop will never be approved by Parliament.\n\nHe maintains he has had conversations with European leaders who \"understand that the backstop will not get through Parliament - they may not have understood that before\".\n\nHe proposes sending a new negotiating team team to Brussels, which would include representatives of the European Research Group - the group of Conservative MPs who support harder forms of Brexit - and members of the DUP.\n\nMany in the Conservative Party believe a new personality at the top can change hearts and minds in Europe but the EU has insisted that the backstop is not up for renegotiation.\n\nThe DUP is keeping quiet about who it would like to see move into Downing Street.\n\nThe party is no stranger to the \"Boris effect\": the Conservative MP was the keynote speaker at the DUP conference last year.\n\nBoris Johnson sat in between the DUP leadership at the party conference last November\n\nBut it will be wary of broken promises.\n\nAt the conference, he called for the backstop to be \"junked\" but then voted for the agreement - including the backstop - during the third meaningful vote in March.\n\nThere's also the matter of renewing the confidence-and-supply pact.\n\nThe Conservatives needed the votes of the DUP's 10 MPs in order to have a working Commons majority after the 2017 Westminster election but had to agree to an extra £1bn in spending for Northern Ireland.\n\nSome Johnson-backing Tory MPs, like Daniel Kawczynski, want the next PM to call a fresh election rather than continue to be at the DUP's \"beck and call\".\n\nWhile the DUP voted against Theresa May's Brexit deal and threatened the government several times over the backstop, it is worth saying that the influence the DUP wields at Westminster is very valuable.\n\nIt will want to work with whoever becomes prime minister.\n\nJeremy Hunt would not be as closely aligned to the DUP as other members of his party.\n\nBut he has sought to paint himself as the candidate best placed to strengthen the union and win the backing of the DUP with a new Brexit deal.\n\nThe latest talks to try and restore power-sharing in Northern Ireland began in May.\n\nAlthough talks haven't broken down, there are no signs of a political breakthrough any time soon.\n\nSinn Féin and the DUP have pointed the finger at each other during the course of the talks processes\n\nIf Boris Johnson becomes PM he is likely to replace the Northern Ireland Secretary Karen Bradley - a Theresa May loyalist - with someone new.\n\nHow could that affect the ongoing talks process, which Mrs Bradley has been overseeing?\n\nUnlike unsuccessful candidate Michael Gove, who said he would personally lead talks to restore the Stormont administration, Jeremy Hunt has not made much mention of the process.\n\nIt is not clear if he would replace his cabinet colleague Mrs Bradley in the Northern Ireland brief.\n\nEarlier this year, Mr Hunt said the UK was wholly \"committed\" to the 1998 Good Friday peace agreement and many of the parties in Northern Ireland would be keen to see him live up to that.\n\nA fresh pair of eyes could possibly help move the Stormont negotiations along - but it's likely to prove as difficult to resolve as Brexit.", "The Hexagon images were declassified in 2011 and digitised for scientific study\n\nImages from Cold War spy satellites have revealed the dramatic extent of ice loss in the Himalayan glaciers.\n\nScientists compared photographs taken by a US reconnaissance programme with recent spacecraft observations and found that melting in the region has doubled over the last 40 years.\n\nThe study shows that since 2000, glaciers heights have been shrinking by an average of 0.5m per year.\n\nThe researchers say that climate change is the main cause.\n\n\"From this study, we really see the clearest picture yet of how Himalayan glaciers have changed,\" Joshua Maurer, from Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in New York, told BBC News.\n\nThe research is published in the journal Science Advances.\n\nDuring the 1970s and 1980s, a US spy programme - codenamed Hexagon - launched 20 satellites into orbit to secretly photograph the Earth.\n\nThe covert images were taken on rolls of film that were then dropped by the satellites into the atmosphere to be collected mid-air by passing military planes.\n\nThe material was declassified in 2011, and has been digitised by the US Geological Survey for scientists to use.\n\nAmong the spy photos are the Himalayas - an area for which historical data is scarce.\n\nBy comparing these pictures with more recent satellite data from Nasa and the Japanese space agency (Jaxa), the researchers have been able to see how the region has changed.\n\nThe Columbia University team looked at 650 glaciers in the Himalayas spanning 2,000km.\n\nThe group found that between 1975 and 2000, an average of 4bn tonnes of ice was being lost each year.\n\nBut between 2000 and 2016, the glaciers melted approximately twice as fast - losing about 8bn tonnes of ice each year on average.\n\nWe now have a satellite record approaching nearly 50 years in length\n\nMr Maurer said: \"For a sense of scale, 8bn tonnes of ice is enough to fill 3.2 million Olympic-sized swimming pools per year.\"\n\nAnd the ice loss was not uniform, he added.\n\n\"Glaciers lose most of their ice in the lower elevation portions of the glacier, and it's there where most of the thinning is concentrated.\n\n\"Some of those zones have been thinning by as much as 5m per year.\"\n\nAmong the scientific community, there has been some debate over the cause.

Because when the ice runs out, some of Asia's most important rivers will lose a water supply that keeps them flowing through drought summers, just when water is at its most valuable.\n\n\"Without mountain glaciers, droughts will be worse for millions of water-stressed people living downstream.\"\n\nThe view of the Himalayas for the International Space station", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

His supporters have been an interesting mixed bag so it is not easy to read where they go.\"\n\nMr Javid is not expected to endorse anyone publicly this afternoon.\n\nLeader of the Scottish Conservatives Ruth Davidson - a key supporter of Sajid Javid - said she now wanted Mr Gove in the final two, describing him as \"smart, articulate and always on top of detail\". Ms Davidson is not an MP and therefore does not get a vote in the fifth ballot.\n\nMr Javid said he was \"truly humbled by the support I have received\".\n\n\"If my ambition and conduct in this contest has set an example for anyone, then it has been more than worth it,\" he said. \"These are very challenging times ahead for our party and our government... the Conservatives must continue to be a broad church.\"\n\nAddressing his comments to \"kids who look and feel a bit different to their classmates\" he said: \"Don't let anyone try and cut you down to size or say you aren't a big enough figure to aim high.\n\n\"You have as much right as anyone to a seat at the top table.\"\n\nMr Johnson, a former Foreign Secretary, said he was \"incredibly grateful\" for the support of more than half of all Conservative MP, adding that \"we have much more work to do\".\n\nEnvironment Secretary Mr Gove jumped into second place, overtaking Foreign Secretary Mr Hunt, who had been second in each of the three previous rounds of voting.\n\nMr Gove said he was \"absolutely delighted\" adding: \"If I make the final two I look forward to having a civilised debate of ideas about the future of our country.\"\n\nMr Hunt said: \"The critical decision now for all colleagues is what choice do we present to the country.\n\n\"Choose me for unity over division, and I will put Boris through his paces and then bring our party and country back together.\"\n\nA source close to Mr Hunt told the BBC: \"Boris and Michael are great candidates but we have seen their personal psychodrama before.

He also told police he had witnessed three boys being murdered.\n\nHis claims led to the Metropolitan Police's Operation Midland, which cost £2m and ended without any charges.\n\nCarl Beech, pictured in a 2014 police interview, denies fraud and perverting the course of justice\n\nAs well as Mr Proctor, among the people he accused of being in a paedophile ring were former prime minister Sir Edward Heath and former Home Secretary Lord Brittan.\n\nMr Proctor told the court he had a hostile relationship with Sir Edward - describing them as \"the antithesis of friends\" and neither was welcome at the other's home.\n\nJurors had previously heard how Mr Beech claimed he was let into a Conservative gentlemen's club - the Carlton Club - by Mr Proctor, and was then abused.\n\nMr Proctor said he had \"never met Nick\" and the allegations were \"an absurd fantasy\".\n\nHe told jurors: \"He is wrong. He is bearing false witness. There was no Westminster VIP paedophile ring.\"\n\nHarvey Proctor giving evidence as Carl Beech looks on\n\nJurors heard that Mr Proctor's home in Leicestershire was raided by police on 4 March 2015. He was living and working at the Belvoir Castle estate at the time, having left Parliament in 1987.\n\nDetectives did not disclose the details of the allegations against him during the 15-hour search, Mr Proctor said.\n\nHe became tearful when he described waking the next morning to discover the BBC reporting news about his home being searched in relation to claims of abuse and murder.\n\n\"I looked up at the television to see my face looking back at me\", he said, adding he then called the Radio 4 Today programme and said publicly - during a radio interview - that he had been plunged into a \"horrendous irrational nightmare\" and \"was not guilty of any of the allegations\".\n\nMr Proctor said intense media interest following the police raid led to him losing his job. He then decided he \"wasn't safe\" in the UK and moved to Spain, the court heard.\n\nHe told jurors that \"the Metropolitan Police believed the allegations against me were credible and true\".\n\nThe witness said a senior Met officer - Det Supt Kenny MacDonald - had given a press conference early in the inquiry and described the claims in such terms.\n\n\"I thought it was an extraordinary statement to be made by any police officer at the start of a police investigation\", he said, adding that he had not realised the detective was talking about him when he first saw it.\n\nHe returned to the UK to be interviewed by police on 18 June 2015. In the days beforehand, his solicitors showed him a document setting out the claims that detectives wanted to ask about: three allegations of murder and several allegations of sexual abuse of children.\n\nJurors have previously been shown a video in which the defendant told detectives he saw Mr Proctor strangle and stab a boy to death during a sadistic sexual abuse session.\n\nMr Beech also said Mr Proctor had been involved in the murder of another unknown child.\n\n\"These were horrendous, horrible, heinous allegations,\" Mr Proctor said. \"These are the worst things that one person can say against another. It was all untrue.\"\n\nHe said he was \"relieved\" to finally know what he was accused of so that he could \"fight back against these false allegations\".\n\nThe trial will continue on Friday.", "The Bank of England has said it expects economic growth to be flat in the second quarter of the year.\n\nThe Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) had previously predicted growth of 0.2% over the period.\n\nThe forecast came as the nine-member committee announced it had voted unanimously to keep UK interest rates on hold, at 0.75%.\n\nThe committee said the downgrade in part reflected an easing of stock-building ahead of Brexit deadlines.\n\nIn the run-up to the end of March, when the UK had originally been expected to leave the European Union, businesses from pharmaceuticals companies to food manufacturers stockpiled goods.\n\nThey wanted to be ready in case the UK left the EU without a transition deal, which they feared could lead to delays at UK borders.\n\nThe MPC said since its previous meeting, the \"near-term data have been broadly in line with the May Report, but the downside risks to growth have increased\".\n\nGlobal trade tensions had intensified and domestically, the \"perceived likelihood of a no-deal Brexit\" had risen, it added.\n\n\"As expected, recent UK data have been volatile, in large part due to Brexit-related effects on financial markets and businesses.\"\n\nAs a result, the committee said in its minutes that after the economy grew by 0.5% in the first three months of 2019, it now expected zero growth in the second quarter.\n\n\"That in part reflects an unwind of the positive contribution to GDP in the first quarter from companies in the United Kingdom and the European Union building stocks significantly ahead of recent Brexit deadlines,\" the MPC said.\n\nThe underlying pattern of relatively strong household consumption growth, but weak business investment, has persisted.\n\nIn setting interest rates, the Bank is aiming to keep inflation within one percentage point either side of its target of 2% \"in a way that helps to sustain growth and employment\".\n\nOn Wednesday, it was announced that inflation had fallen to its target of 2% in May, easing pressure on the Bank to raise rates to keep prices under control.\n\nAnd on Thursday, retail sales figures showed a retail sales fell by 0.5% between April and May, the biggest drop this year. Cold weather in May meant shoppers delayed buying summer clothes.\n\nRichard Carter, head of fixed interest research at Quilter Cheviot, said the MPC's recent warnings about possible future interest rate hikes \"look increasingly hollow, as both the ECB and Federal Reserve are now preparing to move in the opposite direction while the latest readings on the UK economy have been weak\".\n\n\"It is quite possible that the BOE will have to cut rates too before long, with Boris Johnson seemingly headed for Number 10 on a commitment to leave the EU by 31 October, even if the price is a period of economic disruption.\"", "Young people under 30 are spending less on non-housing items than the same age group in 2001, a new report suggests.\n\nThe Resolution Foundation think tank studied changes in pay, housing, taxes and benefits to see if it was still true that newer generations are better off than their predecessors were.\n\nIt found under-30s are spending 7% less than that age group did 18 years ago. Over-65s' spending has risen by 37%.\n\nThe think tank said it did not want to turn generations against each other.\n\nBut it said comparing generations was an \"essential tool\" for understanding what is changing in the UK economy and society.\n\nIn what it calls its \"intergenerational audit\", the Resolution Foundation - which aims to improve living standards for those on low to middle incomes - said its research supported the idea that millennials and members of generation X have seen a squeeze on spending for \"fun\".\n\nMeanwhile, in terms of pay, people under 30 have seen the biggest recovery in salaries since the financial crash in 2008.\n\nBut those in their early 30s are being paid 3% less than someone born 10 years earlier, its research suggested.\n\nThe report also found that for those aged over 50 there is a gender divide: The report finds that women in their late 60s have a little over half the wealth of their male counterparts. The gender difference is not so pronounced among younger generations.\n\nThe report said there is \"widespread pessimism\" among the UK public about young people's prospects\n\nDavid Willetts, president of the Intergenerational Centre within the think tank, said: \"From frustrations about buying a first home to fears about the cost of care, Britain faces many intergenerational challenges.\n\n\"The big living standards gains that each generation used to enjoy over their predecessors have stalled.\n\n\"Welcome steps are being made, from stronger pay growth for young millennials to the success of auto-enrolment into pension saving.\"\n\nThroughout the course of the 20th Century, each generation traditionally enjoyed higher living standards than the generations gone before.\n\nBut there is now widespread pessimism among the UK public about young people's prospects of improving on their predecessors' living standards, the report said.\n\nDespite some good news, in its conclusion the think tank said its research suggested Britain \"is a society in which cohort-on-cohort living standards progress is less of a given\".\n\nIt added that it suggests \"inheritance from family may have more of an impact on individuals' lifetime living standards than how much they earn, with implications for intra-generational inequality\".", "Alesha MacPhail was a pupil at Chapelside Primary in Airdrie\n\nTeachers and pupils at Alesha MacPhail's school have been celebrating her life ahead of the first anniversary of her murder.\n\nThe six-year-old had just finished primary two when she was abducted and killed on the Isle of Bute last summer.\n\nAaron Campbell, 16, was later sentenced to a minimum of 27 years after he finally admitted his crime.\n\nWendy Davie, head of Chapelside Primary in Airdrie, said the happy, chatty youngster would never be forgotten.\n\nA large wooden playhouse inspired by the children's memories of Alesha and decorated with their pictures of unicorns and butterflies has been built in the school playground.\n\nMs Davie said it was a lasting tribute to the child with an \"infectious smile\".\n\nThe playhouse is decorated by pupils' artwork which was inspired by Alesha MacPhail\n\nThe project was led by the children, who wanted a meeting place where they could make friends and have a chat.\n\nThe head teacher is confident it would have won Alesha's seal of approval.\n\nShe told BBC Scotland: \"She would want a place where she knows her friends can come and feel safe, and have a blether, and have giggle and play with slime, and draw and read books.\n\n\"She loved a good chat.

The final peace treaty was signed just a week later.\n\nAfter the fighting in WW1 ended in November 1918, the entire German fleet was ordered to gather together in the Firth of Forth, near Edinburgh, to be \"interned\" by Allied forces.\n\nThe battlecruiser Derflinger just four minutes before it disappeared beneath the surface\n\nNine German battleships, five battlecruisers, seven light cruisers and 49 destroyers - the most modern ships of the German High Seas Fleet - were handed over to the victorious forces off the east of Scotland.\n\nWithin a week, the 70 German ships were escorted to the sheltered waters of Scapa Flow, off Orkney, where they and four other vessels were held while the details of the peace talks were worked out.\n\nThe final decision on their fate was to be taken at Versailles, but until then German sailors were kept on board their ships in the vast natural harbour. At Versailles, the victorious powers wrangled over what to do with the ships. Britain and the US wanted them destroyed. The French and Italians thought it better to share them out between the Allies.\n\nThe fleet was in Scapa Flow for seven months before it was scuttled\n\n\"The ships were not actually surrendered and that's why there were no British troops on board them to prevent them being scuttled,\" Tom Muir from Orkney Museum told BBC Radio Scotland's When the Fleet Went Down. \"They were German government property and remained that throughout their time here.\"\n\nThe German commander, Admiral Ludwig von Reuter, was not kept informed of what was happening outside of his ships. He had to rely on briefings from British commanders and old copies of the Times newspaper, according to Tom Muir.\n\nThe peace talks had been intended to conclude on 21 June but the deadline was extended. As far as von Reuter knew the talks had failed and he was fully expecting his ships to be boarded and seized by the Royal Navy. The German admiral felt duty-bound not to let that happen.\n\nMr Muir says: \"Von Reuter had already sent letters around the commanders of the ships telling them that he was planning to have the fleet scuttled at his signal. Ironically it was the British drifters who were carting those letters around to the officers on the other ships.\"\n\nOn the morning of 21 June 1919, the British fleet took advantage of good weather to steam out of the harbour on exercise. At 10:30, von Reuter's flagship, Emden, sent out the seemingly innocuous message - \"Paragraph Eleven; confirm\". It was a code ordering his men to scuttle their own ships.\n• None 7months after the end of World War One\n\nThe \"paragraph eleven\" signal, using semaphore and searchlights, took a while to reach all the ships because they were positioned right across the vast flow. \"They would have waited and like a wave it went through the ships from north to south,\" says Mr Muir.\n\nBeneath decks, German sailors began to open seacocks - valves that allow water in - and smash pipes. Mr Muir says: \"They had all been deliberately flooded from one side first so that they would turn over and sink because they believed it would make it more difficult for them to salvage them.\"\n\nAt first it was not clear what was happening and it took a couple of hours before it became apparent that the Germans had deliberately sunk their ships.\n\nThe German sailors took to small boats to escape their sinking ships as the few remaining British sailors onboard Royal Navy drifters, small vessels about the size of fishing trawlers which often escorted destroyers, tried to work out what to do.\n\nThe only civilian witnesses were schoolchildren from Stromness who were on a trip to view the German fleet onboard a water tender.\n\nOne of the schoolchildren, 12-year-old Leslie Thorpe, wrote that one German boat full of fleeing soldiers did not have a white flag and the British fired on it with a machine gun.\n\n\"The one thing that should not be forgotten is men died that day,\" says Mr Muir. \"We see all these images and it is just a huge piece of metal rolling over in the sea and sinking and you forget about the cost in human terms.\n\n\"The men in the drifters were ordered to open fire on the defenceless German sailors. They had no weapons, they were not allowed them and they didn't have any.\"\n\nIt is believed nine Germans died as a result of the actions that day.\n\nBy 17:00, most of the German High Seas Fleet had disappeared beneath the surface of Scapa Flow. The Hindenburg, the biggest German battlecruiser, was the last to sink.\n\nDuring the 1920s and '30s many of the 52 ships were lifted from the sea bed by commercial contractors and broken up.\n\nThe seven wrecks that remain are now classed as scheduled monuments, nationally important archaeological sites given protection against unauthorised change. Earlier this week it emerged that four of the vessels, which are now owned by a retired diving contractor, are being sold on eBay.\n\n\"The scuttling of the German fleet removed them from being a bargaining chip in peace negotiations but it was seen as a hostile act by the British,\" says Mr Muir. \"In Germany it was seen as a way of restoring some honour. The navy had not let the ships fall into enemy hands.\"\n\nA senior German officer declared at the time that this act had wiped away the \"stain of surrender\" from the German fleet.\n\nWhen the Fleet Went Down: Scapa Flow @100 is on BBC Radio Scotland at 11:30 on Friday 21 June", "If you are looking for drama, the Conservative Party rarely disappoints.\n\nIf you are looking for stability these days, that's a different matter.\n\nTo absolutely no one's surprise, Boris Johnson's march to Number 10 has taken a giant stride.\n\nLove him or loathe him, he is the biggest political star in this contest, and he persuaded his colleagues by a handsome margin that he's meant for the highest office in the land.\n\nThe number of votes he received increased again, up to 160 this time, more than half of the parliamentary party.\n\nThe gasps in central lobby when the result emerged though were not because of his stellar lead, but down to the wafer-thin margin in the race to be his challenger.\n\nEnvironment Secretary Michael Gove, Mr Johnson's companion on the referendum campaign trail before he sabotaged his leadership bid, received 75 votes.\n\nThat's quite something when you consider just 10 days ago he was under the cosh over revelations of taking cocaine when he was working as a journalist.\n\nBut Jeremy Hunt, the former Remainer and current Foreign Secretary, won 77 votes - so close you can almost hear the squeak.\n\nNow, there's no doubt that Mr Johnson is, at this stage (and there's a long way to go), widely expected to end up in Number 10.\n\nBut this result is an enormous relief to his camp, for the simple reason that they think Mr Hunt is easier to beat.\n\nForget any differences in style between the two challengers and their comparative talents - Jeremy Hunt voted Remain in the EU referendum.\n\nAnd for many Tory members it is a priority for the next leader to have been committed to that cause, rather than a recent convert, however zealous.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Their spending has increased by 4.5% since 2016/17, it said.\n\nBut the percentage which the state contributes has fallen from 27% to 21% in five years, the report said - and hospices have been forced to use their reserve funds or stop services.\n\nOne of the hospices, Acorns in Walsall, West Midlands, has said it will have to close later this year unless it can raise more than £1.5m.\n\nIf it closed, it would mean more than 200 children would lose vital support or be forced to travel long distances, and 70 jobs would be lost.\n\nAnother hospice, Forget Me Not in West Yorkshire and north Manchester, said the lack of council and NHS funding \"has a huge impact\" on the care they can provide.\n\n\"We have two hospices: we cannot fully open our Bury hospice yet despite having amazing facilities and families desperate to access them because it receives no funding from the NHS,\" said chief executive Luen Thompson.\n\n\"Our Huddersfield hospice receives less than 3% in statutory funding of the £4 million it needs to run.\n\n\"Our offer to families shouldn't depend on how much we raise at a bucket collection or how much bric-a-brac we sell in one of our shops.\"\n\nThe head of Together for Short Lives, Andy Fletcher, said the situation at Acorns could be \"just the tip of the iceberg\".\n\n\"It is simply not sustainable to expect specialist children's palliative care services provided by children's hospices to be funded by charity reserves and the generosity of the public,\" he said.\n\nThe charity wants the NHS to increase the Children's Hospice Grant from £12m in 2019/20 to £25m per year.\n\nMr Fletcher also said NHS funding was \"patchy\", with the research showing one hospice receiving 48% of its charitable expenditure from the state in the last financial year but another getting just 7%.\n\nAnd one in six hospices said they had received no funding from their local clinical commissioning groups in 2018/19.\n\nAn NHS England spokeswoman said: \"NHS funding for children's end of life care is going up every year and is set to more than double within the next five years, with up to £25m going in to care as part of the NHS Long Term Plan.\n\n\"We are working with local health groups - including councils which of course have an important role to play in these services - and Together for Short Lives to provide the kind of support that children and their families want.\"\n\nThe government has been approached for comment.", "Last updated on .From the section Tennis\n\nBritain's Andy Murray came through his first match since a career-saving hip operation with an impressive victory in the Queen's doubles.\n\nMurray, 32, was seemingly set for retirement before having his hip resurfaced in January.\n\nFive months later the Scot was back on court alongside Spain's Feliciano Lopez at the Fever-Tree Championships.\n\nThe pair won 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 against Colombian top seeds Robert Farah and Juan Sebastian Cabal.\n\n\"It was brilliant. I enjoyed it a lot,\" Murray told BBC Sport. \"I was a bit slow at the beginning and got better as the match went on.\n\n\"I'm fortunate to be back playing again.\n\n\"Leading up to the match I was quite relaxed but I was a bit nervous when we started walking to the court.\n\n\"You want the nerves and the butterflies in the stomach and I had that.\"\n• None Relive Murray's return to tennis as it happened\n\nFor three-time Grand Slam champion Murray this was not about the result. This was simply about whether his new metal hip could stand up to the rigours of competitive tennis.\n\nBut he could not hide his delight - or indomitable competitive spirit - in clinching victory over one of the world's best doubles pairs at the west London club.\n\nMurray's face cracked into a broad grin as a return into the net secured the match, Lopez then standing back on the sideline to allow the former world number one to take the acclaim of an adoring crowd.\n\n\"I learnt quite a bit tonight,\" added Murray. \"I expected to be the worst player and to not feel particularly good on the court, which was probably the case in the first set.\n\n\"But then I think I started to play better in the second and started to serve a bit better, see the returns a little bit better and things.\n\n\"I have zero discomfort in my hip after the match. Nothing. And if I had done this last year, I'd be here aching, throbbing, and feel bad the next day.\n\n\"So I'll just keep pushing and see how it goes. But I feel optimistic about the future. I don't know how long it will take to get to that level, but, hopefully not too long.\"\n\nThose who had not already secured tickets in advance queued up outside the gates for resales, meaning Centre Court was largely full when play started about 18:45 BST.\n\nEvery winner was met with encouraging cheers and hearty applause, with Murray's wife Kim cheering him on from the front row along with coach Jamie Delgado and other key members of his team.\n\nMost importantly, the two-time Wimbledon singles champion moved freely and was limp free, showing a sharpness perhaps many did not expect to see from a player at his stage of recovery.\n\nMurray broke down in tears in a pre-tournament news conference at the Australian Open in January, saying he planned to retire after Wimbledon because of the acute pain which left him struggling to play with his two daughters and even putting on his socks.\n\nWhen the Scot waved farewell at the end of his first-round defeat by Spain's Roberto Bautista-Agut in Melbourne, few thought they would see Murray back in a competitive scenario on a court.\n\nYet he returned 157 days later after renowned hip surgeon Sarah Muirhead-Allwood, whose previous patients have included the Queen Mother, operated on him.\n\nMurray says the resurfacing of his hip, where the femur head is smoothed down and covered with a metal cap, has been \"life-changing\" and finally taken away the pain which has dogged him for a number of years.\n\nWhether he will be able to become the first player to return to the singles court after this operation remains to be seen, but this was certainly an encouraging first step for the former world number one.\n\nWhat next for Murray?\n\nMurray and Lopez will face either British duo Dan Evans and Ken Skupski or the Canadian-Australian pairing of Felix Auger-Aliassime and Alex de Minaur in Friday's quarter-finals.\n\nThe match will be fifth on a packed centre court schedule and you can watch it live on BBC TV and the BBC Sport website.\n\nAndy could face older brother Jamie in the last four if they both come through their last-eight matches.\n\nJamie and Neal Skupski - who beat Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin 7-6 (7-5) 1-6 10-7 in their opener - face Henri Kontinen and John Peers before Andy's match on Friday.\n\nPunching the air at regular intervals and seemingly loving every minute after five months on the sidelines, Murray returned as a winner.\n\nHe was at his sharpest in the second set - executing a high backhand volley with a high degree of difficulty, and then hitting two thumping forehand returns to get the decisive break of serve.\n\nMurray also took a tumble, to no ill-effect, and there was no sign of the on-court limp we had become so accustomed to before his surgeon worked her magic.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "President Vladimir Putin has said Russia \"completely disagrees\" with the evidence put forward by the MH17 plane crash inquiry.\n\nIt comes a day after four men -

It was a reward for supporting David Cameron, who attended Oxford University at the same time as him, in the Conservative leadership election.\n\nA reshuffle in 2007 saw Mr Hunt promoted to shadow culture secretary.\n\nIn 2009, he was found to have breached expenses rules and ordered to repay more than £9,500. He had allowed his agent to stay rent-free in his constituency property, which was designated as his second home.\n\nMr Hunt had claimed £19,117 in public money towards the property, but it was decided he hadn't benefited financially from the situation.\n\nWhen the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government was formed in 2010, Jeremy Hunt joined the cabinet as secretary of state for culture, Olympics, media and sport.\n\nIt was a key role in the run-up to London's 2012 Olympics and he worked closely with then London Mayor, Boris Johnson.\n\nMr Hunt campaigned on the importance of tourism during the Olympics. And he took the decision to double the budget for the Olympic and Paralympic ceremonies from £40m to £81m.\n\nThe Olympic opening ceremony was widely seen as a big success.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nMr Hunt also put emphasis on creating a lasting legacy for the games.\n\nThe government gave Sport England £1bn to invest in grassroots sports, and Mr Hunt said there was an \"extraordinary chance\" to \"reinvigorate this country's sporting habits for both the young and the old\".\n\nBut in the years that followed there was only a small increase in the number of young people taking up sport.\n\nIn 2005-06 the proportion of over-16s in England who played sport for at least 30 minutes each week was 34.6%. By 2015-16, it was 36.1%.\n\nEarlier in 2012, his career was hanging in the balance. During the Leveson Inquiry into the culture and practices of the press, his contact with the Murdoch family came under scrutiny.\n\nMr Hunt was responsible for overseeing the proposed takeover of BSkyB by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.\n\nHe was criticised for failing to supervise his adviser's contact with News Corp, and for messages he exchanged with James Murdoch on the bid. His special adviser, Adam Smith, was forced to quit.\n\nThe inquiry released texts sent from Mr Hunt to News Corp lobbyist Fred Michel when it was bidding for BSkyB. The culture secretary addressed him as \"Daddy\" and \"mon ami\" - their wives had given birth in the same hospital in May 2010. Separately, in December 2010, he told Mr Michel there was \"nothing u won't like\" in a forthcoming speech.\n\nMr Hunt insisted he acted with \"total integrity\" during the bid process.\n\nAs culture secretary, Mr Hunt also led a government plan to launch local television stations across the UK. More than 30 had been set up before Ofcom later scrapped the roll-out of any further channels, because of limited interest from viewers and financial difficulties.\n\nCity TV, the holder of the local TV licence for Birmingham, was forced to appoint administrators to find a buyer before it was even launched, for example.\n\nMr Hunt also announced a deal with the BBC to freeze the licence fee for six years at £145.50 from 2010. He said high executive salaries and an advantage over commercial broadcasters were a cause for concern.\n\nThat was equivalent to a 16% budget cut in real terms and led to the BBC having to make savings, including 2,000 job losses.\n\nUnder the agreement, the BBC also took on responsibility for funding the World Service, the Welsh language channel S4C, and the roll-out of broadband to rural areas.\n\nJeremy Hunt was appointed health secretary in September 2012, with Maria Miller taking on his previous role.\n\nHe would eventually become the longest-serving health secretary in NHS history, surpassing its founder, Labour's Aneurin Bevan.\n\nBut Mr Hunt held office during the slowest period of investment in the NHS since its foundation - which created big problems.\n\nSince the NHS was established, health spending has risen by about 4% above inflation each year on average. Post-2010, as the coalition budget tried to reduce the deficit, this fell to about 1% a year.\n\nThis came as demands on the health service were growing.\n\nBetween 2005 and 2015, A&E visits went up by almost 30%. And during Mr Hunt's tenure as health secretary, the number of people in the population aged 85 and over went up by about a third.\n\nThe independent Office for Budget Responsibility said funding for the NHS needed to rise by 4.3% a year just to keep up with rising demand, without actively improving standards.\n\nFinancial difficulties led to more hospitals going into the red, as well as targets being missed in three main areas: cancer care, hospital appointments and A&E waiting times.\n\nNHS England has not met any of these targets since 2015.\n\nJust 85.3% of patients were seen at A&E departments within the waiting time target of four hours in January 2018. At least 95% of patients attending A&E are supposed to be either admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours.\n\nUnions, like the GMB, demanded his resignation.\n\nAs well as a series of austerity measures - which included extending a cap on pay increases for NHS staff - he was also criticised for his handling of the junior doctor contract row.\n\nMr Hunt said that changes to contracts were essential to deliver a seven-day NHS in England by 2020 - a pledge in the Conservatives' 2010 election manifesto.\n\nTo achieve this, the proposed contracts would mean evenings and Saturdays would be considered \"normal\" rather than \"unsocial\" hours and would no longer attract overtime pay.\n\nThe NHS's pay review body had said the cost of paying a premium on these \"unsocial hours\" put delivering a seven-day NHS out of reach.\n\nJunior doctors responded by tweeting pictures of themselves working weekend and late shifts, with the hashtag #ImInWorkJeremy.\n\nContract negotiations with junior doctors stopped and started and the British Medical Association eventually decided on industrial action.\n\nJunior doctors took part in a series of walkouts in 2016. On two strike days, between 08:00 and 17:00 even emergency care wasn't covered - the first time that had ever happened in the history of the NHS.\n\nPublic support for the strike was high, and even after doctors withdrew emergency care, the majority of the public (57%) still supported the strike and believed the government was more at fault (54%).\n\nA new contract for junior doctors was later imposed, after BMA members rejected a deal agreed by the government and union negotiators.\n\nDespite heavy criticism, Mr Hunt did go on to secure a funding increase for the NHS, totalling £20.5bn in real terms by 2023.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of an Ofsted-style system for rating hospitals and GP surgeries in England, ranking them on things like cancer, mental health and diabetes services.\n\nMr Hunt repeatedly referred in speeches to cases where individuals had received bad treatment in the NHS. He said he was horrified at the report into the Stafford Hospital scandal.\n\nHe went on to overhaul the inspection regime, introduce a new duty of candour on staff and fresh rules about whistle-blowers.\n\nSocial care was added to his brief in 2018. He spoke of the need to integrate social care, funded by local councils, with services delivered by the NHS.\n\nHe had already overseen a transfer of money from the NHS to council budgets from 2014. This shared budget was designed to tackle the problem of elderly people having to stay in hospital beds unnecessarily, because of a lack of care for them at home.\n\nAfter this, the number of these cases fell.\n\nHe also oversaw the introduction of the first national waiting-time target for mental health treatment. From April 2016, the NHS said at least 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis should begin treatment within two weeks of referral.\n\nMr Hunt became foreign secretary in July 2018, after his predecessor and now leadership rival, Boris Johnson, quit over Theresa May's Brexit strategy.\n\nIn March, he became the first Western foreign minister to visit Yemen since conflict there began.\n\nHe has faced criticism for allowing the UK to sell arms to the Saudi regime, which is involved in a controversial military campaign in Yemen. But he has previously defended UK-Saudi ties, saying Saudi Arabia is a \"very, very important military ally to the UK\".\n\nHis time as foreign secretary has not been gaffe-free. During a meeting on an official visit to China, he called his wife Lucia Guo \"Japanese\" - although she was born in Xian in central China.\n\nThis video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

He said this was because of the \"arrogance of the European Commission\" in Brexit negotiations.\n\nHe also likened the Brexit negotiating tactics of the EU to the Soviet Union. The comparison provoked criticism from EU ambassadors and politicians and there were calls for an apology.\n\nMr Hunt says he want to negotiate a \"credible\" Brexit plan by securing changes to the controversial Irish backstop.\n\nHowever, he does not rule out leaving the EU without a deal if such an outcome becomes \"the only way to deliver Brexit\".\n\nBut unlike his leadership rival, Boris Johnson, he says the current departure date of 31 October is not a hard deadline.", "Both Jeremy Hunt and Michael Gove believe they can join Boris Johnson in the final two\n\nAfter nine days and three rounds, it's almost decision time.\n\nTory MPs will vote, and vote again - perhaps up to late on Thursday night - until there are only two men left.\n\nBarring some bizarre implosion, one of them is certain to be Boris Johnson - the politician who despite the wilful rollercoaster, has come determinedly back from the political brink.\n\nFor many months he was down, but evidently, never truly out.

Others fear a repeat of 2016's Johnson-Gove melodrama, a senior member of the government warning it would sow yet more seeds of bitterness and \"destroy the next government\".\n\nThe appeal of Mr Hunt's perceived competence is strong for his backers but might pale in comparison to a rival whose baggage and bravado might block out the sun.\n\nMr Javid is more able to convey a message that the party's ready to change, but maybe right now lacks the capacity to communicate with vigour what he is really about.\n\nNone of them, of course, will want to be the first to fold.

To answer the questions in 50 words or less.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nFirst, I'll negotiate a full stop to the backstop - a guarantee it can never be permanent.\n\nSecond, I'll secure a Union Guarantee in international law so that our United Kingdom cannot be undermined.\n\nThird, I'll secure a Canada-style Free Trade Agreement which takes back control of our laws, borders and money.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nI would involve Conservative MPs in shaping our negotiating stance and install a negotiating team led by politicians.\n\nMy Union Guarantee will help me secure the support of the DUP.\n\nI also have a track record working across political divides, and would work with opposition MPs committed to Brexit.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI want to deliver Brexit as soon as possible and before 31 October.\n\nHowever, I have said that if it will take a few more days or weeks to finalise a deal, I would be prepared to contemplate a short delay.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nI will always choose Brexit over no Brexit. So if it ultimately came to a choice, I would choose no deal over no Brexit. I led the Vote Leave campaign. I am determined to finish what I started and ensure we leave the EU.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nThis is a false choice. We need to honour the referendum and deliver Brexit before there is an election.\n\nWe must not blunder into a confidence vote which we could lose. I am categorically opposed to a second referendum, which is only advocated for by people who want to remain.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nWe are not pretending it's going to be easy but the EU doesn't want no deal and there is a deal to be done if the right team is sent to negotiate it.\n\nI will present Brussels with a credible plan and a new negotiating team so they have confidence it can get through Parliament.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nWe have to deal with the biggest issue Parliament has which is the backstop that could leave the UK permanently trapped in the customs union against its will.\n\nChanging the deal to address this concern, while maintaining support from across the Conservative Party and DUP, will get Brexit delivered.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI have always believed that if the only way to deliver Brexit was through no deal, then I would pursue that.\n\nBut I would not pursue no deal, with all the risks it involves, if there was the chance of a good deal.\n\nWhat I would not do is set a hard stop on 31 October by which we would be forced into no deal, even if it meant an election and Jeremy Corbyn in No 10.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nI started my own business and negotiated for every day of my professional life - I am wholly focused on making sure it succeeds.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nWe have to give the country better choices than these, and as an experienced negotiator who understands European leaders, I am best placed to do that.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nWe don't want another referendum, but if there was one I would vote to leave. The people have decided and the democratic risk of not delivering their decision is colossal. We have to get on with it and that's exactly what I would do.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nWe need to focus on the one thing that's needed to get a deal through Parliament: alternative arrangements to the backstop.\n\nAnd we need to work with Ireland - the key player in this - to deliver those arrangements, beginning with a bold offer to pick up their costs for technological solutions.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nParliament has already voted for the current withdrawal agreement with changes to the backstop. That's why it's what I'd focus on securing with the EU.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nWe need to leave the EU on 31 October. I am confident we can agree a deal - and Parliament will support what it has already voted for in the past.\n\nBut if it comes to a choice between no deal, and no Brexit, I would have to back no deal.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nNo deal is the default if Parliament cannot agree a deal - and I would make sure we are fully prepared for it.\n\nBut we have to be honest about what the choice is. We cannot accept no Brexit as an outcome.\n\nSo either we agree a deal, or leave without one on 31 October.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nWe can't reduce this debate to false choices. We've asked the public too many times already for their views on Brexit.\n\nOnce should have been enough. They want us to get on with it now. Asking yet again would risk irreparable damage to trust in our democracy.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nI've been clear we need to get on with Brexit - no second referendum.\n\nThe people delivered a clear instruction to the British people, and as I said at the time it is our job as elected politicians to deliver it, however we voted at the time.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nIt's clear that the prime minister's deal is dead - having been rejected by Parliament three times.\n\nWe should have come out by March and both of the main political parties are paying the price for failing to do so. We now need to make sure we come out on 31 October, come what may, and we need to show that we are serious about leaving with no deal.\n\nTo be clear, I don't want no deal, but it's only by being serious you can be confident of getting a new, better deal.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nParliament has already made clear that it is willing to vote for a better deal, and last week made clear that it wasn't willing to take no deal off the table.\n\nI am confident that, so long as we can address MPs' concerns with the old withdrawal agreement, we can strike a new deal that Parliament will want to vote for.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nI am not planning for failure. Politics has changed since 29 March, and I believe that MPs now realise they need to deliver on the result of the referendum, or risk a devastating breach in public confidence in our politics.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nAgain, I am not planning for failure. We must deliver on the democratic wishes of the British people.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nNeither. It's clear that the public doesn't want to us to force them to vote again.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nLeave, but there isn't going to be another referendum if I become prime minister.\n\nHow will you get a deal agreed with the EU?\n\nI would not negotiate a new deal with the EU. I would take through the deal we have already got.\n\nPretending that we can get a different deal out of Brussels is simply a recipe for more uncertainty and delay.\n\nHow would you get the deal through Parliament?\n\nAll deals have to go through Parliament. The current deal has 270 votes. We need 45 more.\n\nThe European Elections are an electric shock which will make MPs determined to get Brexit done. There is only one door - Parliament. And one key - getting a majority.\n\nIf Parliament votes the deal down, what is your contingency plan?\n\nMy plan B would be a Brexit Assembly. It worked in Ireland to resolve the impasse on abortion.\n\nWhile Parliament will always remain sovereign, the Assembly would present a clear recommendation on the best way forward to break the deadlock.\n\nWhat would you do if your contingency plan fails?\n\nIn the end I - like everyone else - would have to return to getting a deal through Parliament. Parliament is sovereign. It is the only law-making body in the country.\n\nIf you had to make a choice between an election and another referendum, which would you choose?\n\nWe will only have to face that hideous choice in the future if we fail to engage with reality now.\n\nAs leader I would avoid both by getting a deal through Parliament.\n\nI do not want to see a general election until 2022, and I think a second referendum would be deeply damaging to this country as well as to faith in our democracy.\n\nWould you campaign to leave or stay in the EU in another referendum?\n\nIt's because I am the only candidate engaging with the reality of delivering on the result of the first referendum that I can confidently say we won't be having a second.", "Francis called the music industry \"an unmonitored, unregulated cesspit of bad behaviour\"\n\nAluna Francis has spoken for the first time about being sexually assaulted by someone in the music industry.\n\nShe told BBC podcast The Next Episode that the man forced his hands into her underwear, undressed and tried to coerce her into performing oral sex.\n\n\"It was like I was in a room with a completely different person,\" said the AlunaGeorge singer. \"His behaviour went from nought to a hundred.\"\n\nShe has not disclosed the name of her alleged attacker.\n\nFrancis, whose dance duo scored several top 40 singles and were runners-up on the BBC's Sound of 2013 list, said she had been working on a song with the music professional when the alleged attack took place in a hotel room.\n\n\"I was like, 'All right mate, calm down.

It gave me goosebumps. It was magic,\" Clark told Radio 2's Zoe Ball.\n\n\"Then we got down to recording the track and we [added] 48 tracks of voices, which had never been done in Abbey Road before, then the whole backing.\n\n\"It was fabulous - but I still felt there was something about the original rehearsal.\"\n\nThis YouTube post cannot be displayed in your browser.

After isolating Mercury's voice, he brought in original keyboardist Mike Moran to record a new piano track.\n\nThe result is a fresh, stripped-back take that turns a spotlight on the raw emotion of Mercury's vocal.\n\nClark described it as a \"magic performance,\" adding he \"tasted every word\".\n\n\"It gave me the same goosebumps as when I first heard it.\"\n\nTime was an ambitious, space-age musical, starring Cliff Richard as a rock star who must make the Earth's case when the planet goes on trial before a galactic high court.\n\nFeaturing a holographic projection of Sir Laurence Olivier (as Akash, \"the Ultimate Word in Truth\") it was ridiculed by critics, but ran for two years.\n\nMercury, however, declined a starring role in the production, saying: \"For one thing, my darling, I don't get up until 3pm, so I can't do matinees.\n\n\"For another, when I do a show, I sing my butt off for three hours and then I drop dead. So it would be impossible to do eight shows a week.\"\n\nHis recording of the title track was a minor hit in 1986, charting at number 32 in the UK.\n\nClark and Mercury had been friends since 1976, when they met backstage at Queen's concert in London's Hyde Park; and remained close until Mercury's death from Aids-related illnesses in 1991.\n\nOn the last night of Mercury's life, Clark had taken over the bedside vigil from the singer's former girlfriend, who was also his closest friend, Mary Austin.\n\nClark was alone with Mercury in the bedroom when he suddenly died.\n\n\"The doctor had been there half an hour before and said he's got a few more days, so we didn't expect he would die so soon,\" he told the Daily Mail in 2011.\n\n\"We phoned Mary immediately. She lived just round the corner. It was unexpected otherwise she would have been there. She had the terrible task of phoning Freddie's parents and sister to say he'd passed on.\"\n\nIn the same interview, Clark lamented the fact that Mercury narrowly missed out on the widespread arrival of antiretroviral medication that might have saved his life\n\n\"Freddie had tried everything. He had special new medications flown in by Concorde from America. He said the next generation will be the ones to beat this. And the sad thing is if it had been 12 months later, he might have been okay when combination drug therapy first came in.\"\n\nTime Waits For No One is the first \"new\" music from Freddie Mercury since the box office success of the Bohemian Rhapsody biopic.\n\nThe 2014 compilation album Queen Forever, also featured a number of unreleased vocals by Mercury, including a duet with Michael Jackson.\n\nThe band have also hinted at the existence of several original songs recorded with David Bowie, during the sessions that produced their 1981 single Under Pressure.\n\nBohemian Rhapsody, released last year, is the most-successful music biopic in history, with box office takings of $903m.\n\nRami Malek, who played Mercury, won an Oscar and a Bafta for his show-stopping performance, including a recreation of the band's iconic set at Live Aid in 1985.\n\n\"Freddie would have loved it,\" said Clark. \"He would have been smiling.

While there, he started getting interested in cinema and producing short films.\n\nAt one point, he went along to a special effects workshop. Both he and the tutor suggested his frame would be perfect to try out monster make-up on.\n\n\"I didn't realise but I was born to perform,\" Javier says.\n\nJavier was diagnosed with the genetic condition in childhood\n\n\"I have a disease called Marfan syndrome. It makes people skinnier, taller, and very flexible.\"\n\n\"So I was all my life very flexible, all my life doing weird tricks and things to enjoy with my friends [using] very creepy movement.\"\n\nHis condition means his limbs and fingers are longer than average and are able to move in unusual ways.\n\nThe tutor put him forward for roles, and within a couple of months he got a small part in his first Spanish film. This set the ball rolling for exposure.\n\nHis \"lucky break\" into Hollywood came while advertising his work in a Spanish horror film series, Rec 2, at a 2009 convention in Texas.\n\nThere, he met Argentine director Andrés Muschietti promoting a short, called Mama, that he hoped to turn into a full feature.\n\nJavier relaxing on-set as the Crooked Man in the Conjuring 2\n\nHe told Javier he'd be perfect in the title role - and one year later, with Guillermo del Toro on-board as the film's producer, Javier was officially asked.\n\nBut when the film came out in 2013, many fans assumed Mama - a female ghost - was created digitally.\n\n\"So nobody really knew that 90% of what they saw was totally mine, was physical work,\" he says.\n\nIn response, the makers decided to upload Javier's movement test, showing him moving eerily, utilising his hyper-flexibility.\n\nThe clip has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times since.

She'd say 'I want you to play drama roles and a nice guy',\" Javier says.\n\nIn Spain, it isn't all horror though - Javier stars in comedies and writes and directs his own work, too.\n\nBut he still really enjoys his Hollywood horror roles - and always tries to learn new techniques, like dance, to enrich his performances.\n\nTransforming into these roles can involve hours and hours in the make-up chair.\n\nSome of his character costumes (like Slender Man) restrict his senses\n\nOne of the people responsible for bringing his characters to life is Spanish make-up artist David Martí from DDTSFX.\n\nHe has worked with Javier on several films, including Crimson Peak, which also starred another \"monster\" actor heavyweight in Doug Jones.

On Mama and Crimson Peak, digital effects were added to enhance DDTSFX's work.\n\nJavier believes that no matter how far technology goes, actors like himself will always have value in the industry.\n\n\"When there's something digital, anything can happen.

Klopp\n• None Pochettino wants to 'experience' final again\n\nFrom heartbreak to glory for Salah\n\nOne of the enduring images of Liverpool's loss to Real Madrid in Kiev was a tearful Salah being led off midway through the first half as realisation dawned he could not continue with the shoulder injury sustained in a tangle with Sergio Ramos.\n\nIt was a moment that changed the mood inside the stadium and left Liverpool unable to turn the tide once it went against them - so this was an occasion laced with meaning for the world-class Egyptian.\n\nAnd his moment came almost instantly when he took responsibility from the penalty spot and powered the ball past Lloris.\n\nHow fitting it was that the player who has contributed so much to Liverpool's renaissance should make such a significant contribution.\n\nAnother major difference from last year's disappointment was the giant presence of Alisson in goal as opposed to the hapless Lloris Karius, who gifted goals to Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale in Kiev.\n\nHere, the £67m Brazilian was a rock with his safe handling and vital interventions when Liverpool came under stress in the second half.\n\nAlisson, along with Virgil van Dijk, has given Liverpool the extra dimension that pushed them so close to a first league title in 29 years and has now made them European champions once more.\n• None Read all the reaction to the game\n• None How you rated the players\n\nLiverpool manager Klopp knew one sub-plot to this Champions League final, played out in the searing heat of Madrid, would be his grim record of losing six successive finals.\n\nHe had lost three with Liverpool, including in this competition last season, and while no-one can seriously doubt the German's outstanding work it was his legendary Anfield predecessor Bill Shankly who coined the phrase: \"First is first and second is nowhere.\"\n\nKlopp can now cast off that mantle and instead be known as the manager who restored Liverpool to the pinnacle of European competition.\n\nIronically, after a season of sustained brilliance and a single defeat brought the scant reward of second place to Manchester City in the Premier League, this landmark triumph was achieved with one of Liverpool's least sparkling performances for some time.\n\nThat will not matter, however, because Liverpool earned this glory with wins such as those over Bayern Munich in the last 16 and the astonishing 4-0 turnaround against Barcelona at Anfield in the semi-final.\n\nKlopp was already a much-loved figure - now his name will be written into club folklore.\n\nIn the end the temptation was simply too much to resist - and it was easy to understand why.\n\nPochettino knew his world-class striker Kane was a player who had hurt Liverpool in the past and could hurt them again - so he left out Moura, the scorer of that dramatic hat-trick in the semi-final second leg in Ajax that took Spurs to the final.\n\nKane had not played since sustaining another ankle injury in the quarter-final first leg against Manchester City on 9 April and it showed as he failed to exert any influence on the game, Moura introduced belatedly but unable to produce a second miracle.\n\nSpurs and Pochettino were left heartbroken and perhaps with a sense of missed opportunity, because Liverpool were nowhere near their best and occasionally looked vulnerable.\n\nPochettino, however, deserves huge credit for taking Spurs to their first Champions League final without strengthening his squad this season.\n\nIt surely will not be too long before he follows Klopp and wins his first trophy as a manager in England.\n\nMatch stats -

At the same time, the authorities were concerned about the knock-on effects of Cyclone Fani which had already struck India and Bangladesh.\n\nThe weather deteriorated in the Nepalese Himalayas days after the cyclone, forcing the government to suspend all mountaineering activities for at least two days.\n\nNearly 20 tents at the camp were blown away by strong winds and after the warning, several climbers, who were already en route to some of the higher camps, returned to base camp.\n\nProlonged bad weather meant that the practice of fixing bolted rope to assist climbers trying to reach the summit was delayed.\n\nBritish climber Robin Haynes Fisher (pictured) is among those who have died this year\n\nMeanwhile the crowd at base camp continued to build.\n\nEverest - which lies on the border between Nepal and China - can be reached from the Chinese side as well. However, the Chinese government issues fewer permits, and many mountaineering experts find the climb less interesting.\n\nAfter the ropes were fixed by mid-May, the first feasible clear-weather window was 19 and 20 May.\n\nBut only a few teams chose to climb then while the majority waited for the second window - from 22 to 24 May.\n\nMountaineering experts say this was when the crowd management went wrong.\n\n23 May saw the maximum number of climbers on one day - more than 250.\n\nClimbers had to wait for hours below the summit - both on the way up and on the way down.\n\nMany of them were exhausted and their oxygen cylinders were running low.\n\nNepal's mountaineering regulation requires expedition teams to have liaison officers on the mountains.\n\nThis time 59 of them were appointed to accompany the teams but only five of them stayed until the final part of the climb.\n\nSome did not even turn up, while most of those who did went home after a few days at the base camp.\n\nA photograph showing a long tailback went viral on the internet\n\nThese are often regular government officials who have no mountaineering experience, so they find it difficult to cope with the high altitude.\n\nThey get paid by expedition teams and most of them are happy to stay at home.\n\nIf all the liaison officials had stayed on the mountain, managing the crowd would have been much easier, a top government source at Everest base camp told the BBC.\n\n\"We could have spread the teams so that the first feasible window (19-20 May) would have seen more climbers and the pressure would have been less during the second window,\" they said.\n\n\"Since almost none of these liaison officials stayed, it became very difficult for the limited officials to handle this huge number of climbers.\"\n\nLiaison officials not turning up has been an issue ailing Nepal's mountaineering industry for years now.\n\nMeera Acharya, head of the mountaineering section at Nepal's tourism ministry, said 80% of the appointed officials did go to the base camp this time.\n\n\"But I admit that not all of our liaison officials stayed there for long. We are aware of this issue and we are working to address it.\"\n\n\"We do hear of deaths of climbers on Mount Kilimanjaro as well, why is Everest being singled out here?\"\n\nMountaineering experts say there is also an increase in the number of inexperienced climbers joining the growing crowd on Everest.\n\nThis time round, many of them had just one Sherpa guide with their team, officials at the base camp said.\n\n\"When you have a dangerous situation like this, one Sherpa will not be able to help you much because he will have to take care of himself.\"\n\nNepal has denied overcrowding is the sole reason for the rise in deaths\n\nSome of the mountaineers who successfully returned after summiting said they had seen climbers struggling because they were running out of oxygen - they had to wait much longer.\n\n\"This new generation of climbers, eager to bag the top and brag back home, didn't know enough to understand the difference between climbing Everest and Makalu (Mount Makalu, the 5th highest peak southeast of Everest),\" says Alan Arnette, an experienced mountaineer and writer on mountaineering issues.\n\n\"They joined a random team of individuals with shared logistics for an independent climb. They didn't understand the word 'independent' and had no experience to evaluate the risks.\"\n\nVeteran climbers have long suggested Nepal's government should introduce certain criteria, including mandatory experience of having climbed peaks above 6,000m, for issuing Everest climbing permits.\n\nThe quest to get anyone willing to pay has been mainly down to intense competition between operators, particularly old and new ones.\n\nWith the entry of new expedition operators offering cheaper prices, mountaineers say even some of the established ones have been forced to cut their fees.\n\n\"As a result, you see agencies hiring inexperienced people as guides who cannot offer the right guidance to their clients when they have a situation like this,\" said Tshering Pande Bhote, vice president of Nepal National Mountain Guides Association.\n\n\"Unfortunately the competition is for volume and not for quality.\"\n\nExpedition operators admit there are problems but they argue they also need to increase the number of visitors for the growth of the industry.\n\n\"Next year, for example, is Visit Nepal Year (a mega-tourism campaign that aims to bring in two million tourists),\" says Dambar Parajuli, president of the Expedition Operators Association of Nepal.\n\n\"So we will need to have more visitors, including mountaineers, but clearly how we manage traffic jams like this remains our major challenge.\"", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.\n\nIrish boxer Katie Taylor has previously reflected on the \"mountain tops and valleys\" of life, and this weekend she hopes to scale her highest peak to be the undisputed women's world lightweight champion.\n\nTaylor, 32, has sampled highs and lows, inside and outside of the ring, during her career.\n\nShe already holds the WBO, IBF and WBA world lightweight belts.\n\nNow she is bidding to write her finest chapter in boxing history by defeating Belgian police officer and WBC champion Delfine Persoon, 34, at New York's Madison Square Garden.\n\nIf she succeeds, she will claim her fourth world title in just 14 professional fights, and would be the first Irish female boxer to become the undisputed world champion.\n\nThe County Wicklow native is already a significant sporting figure due to her instrumental role in getting women's boxing recognised in Ireland and on the Olympic stage.\n\nBut as boxing author Barry Flynn explains, a win on Saturday night would put her achievements on another level.\n\n\"She is a once-in-a-generation athlete,\" said Flynn.\n\n\"In the modern era, in terms of Irish boxing, it would be unprecedented if she wins.\n\n\"She will stand at the pinnacle.

Pete was one of two other men injured.\n\nKatie Taylor condemned the \"horrific attack\", but said she had had little contact with her father in the \"last three years and no contact or association whatsoever with Bray Boxing Club since 2015\".\n\nHer Christian faith has been a constant in Taylor's career; she was a regular at St Mark's Pentecostal Church in Dublin's Pearse Street from her teenage years.\n\nShe has been known to pray with her mother, Bridget, before fights.\n\nTaylor's devotion to boxing has run parallel to her faith - Psalm 18 is embossed on the arm of her tracksuit.\n\nTraining in New York, ahead of Saturday's world title fight\n\nTaylor's decision to turn professional with promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing in October 2016 has reaped considerable rewards.\n\nThe Irish Times reported in April that Taylor's company had accrued cash reserves of more than €1.5m (£1.32m) after another successful year.\n\nThe boxer is now based in the Conneticut town of Vernon, in the US, where she is under the guidance of trainer Ross Enamait.\n\nHe has previously said \"there's a lot of people don't recognise the talent that exists\" in Taylor, but that is unlikely to remain the case for long.\n\nSaturday's contest, on the undercard of Anthony Joshua's fight against Andy Ruiz Jr, is widely anticipated.\n\nMcAuley remains a believer as Taylor heads for the summit. \"She will win the fourth title, she is the best there is about,\" he said.\n\n\"I think she will go down in history, I can't see anyone stopping her -

I felt I played well throughout the match,\" said Konta after reaching her first Grand Slam quarter-final since Wimbledon in 2017.\n\n\"To win like that in front of a crowd like that gives you goosebumps.\"\n\nKonta is enjoying a superb clay-court season, reaching WTA finals in Morocco and Rome, and has continued to build on that form in Paris with some assured performances.\n\nShe wrapped up victory over Vekic on the first of her three match points when the Croat hit long.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone\n\nKonta had never won a main-draw match at Roland Garros before this year and appears to be reaping the rewards of her work with coach Dimitri Zavialoff, whom she employed at the end of last year.\n\nShe is trusting her ability on a surface where she has had little previous success and against Vekic, this was again evident.\n\nKonta produced 33 winners and seven aces on her way to victory, improving her tallies in these areas from each of her previous three matches.\n\nFormer world number four Konta was rarely flustered against Vekic, who she memorably beat in a three-set thriller on her way to the Wimbledon semi-finals two years ago.\n\nAfter bouncing straight back from losing her opening service game, the Briton broke again for a 5-2 lead and kept a measure of calm to see off four break points before sealing the set with an ace down the middle.\n\nServe ruled at the start of the second set - with only eight receiving points won in the opening six games - before Konta struck first for a 4-3 advantage.\n\nFor the first time she wobbled as three unforced errors handed the break straight back, but she managed to reset again in the next game.\n\nTwo whopping forehands, which dusted the baseline, set the tone, forcing Vekic into a panicked backhand volley wide that brought up three break points for the Briton.\n\nVekic saved two of them, only for Konta to take the third when she pulled off an outrageous backhand drop shot from the back of the court.\n\nKonta took her first match point when she expertly judged a Vekic return was going long, breaking out into a broad smile and raising both arms skywards in celebration.\n\n\"I was definitely pleased with how I was playing and the kind of problem-solving I was doing out there. I felt I was being very effective,\" Konta said.\n\n\"I thought I had very few drops in my level, which I think definitely kept the pressure on her and in trying to find a solution.\n\n\"I was able to identify where I was getting points and what was making her feel uncomfortable on court. I thought I played into the open spaces quite well and was able to find opportunities to do that.\"\n\nKonta is not alone in being a quarter-final debutant at this year's French Open.\n\nCroatian 31st seed Petra Martic and Czech 19-year-old Marketa Vondrousova are both in the last eight at Roland Garros for the first time and one of them will be Konta's semi-final opponent if she is victorious in the next round.\n\nNeither player has made it to a Grand Slam quarter-final before, but Martic reached this stage after beating Kaia Kanepi 5-7 6-2 6-4, while Vondrousova came through after a 6-2 6-0 win against 12th seed Anastasija Sevastova.\n\nTennis can sometimes be a very simple game.\n\nFuelled by confidence, and playing with the utmost fluency, Johanna Konta looked in little doubt that a quarter-final spot was hers for the taking.\n\nKonta arrived in the Moroccan capital Rabat at the end of April with some fine Fed Cup wins for GB under her belt, but a very sketchy career record on clay.\n\nShe saved three match points in the first round there, and has not looked back.\n\nThe win over Vekic was Konta's 14th in four tournaments, but she will have to play exceptionally well for a 15th. She has two victories on tour this year against Sloane Stephens, but knows last year's runner up is an altogether different prospect when a Grand Slam title is on the line.\n\nKonta was not the only Briton in action at Roland Garros, as Joe Salisbury made it to the men's doubles quarter-finals alongside American Rajeev Ram.\n\nThe 11th seeds came back from a set down to beat eighth seeds Henri Kontinen and John Peers 3-6 6-3 7-6 (7-5).\n\nSalisbury and Ram will face unseeded French pair Fabrice Martin and Jeremy Chardy - who was beaten by British number one Kyle Edmund in the first round of the singles - in the last eight.\n• None Alerts: Get tennis news sent to your phone", "Companies that use high-pressure or bullying tactics to sell funeral plans could face fines and criminal charges, the government says.\n\nThe Treasury has announced proposals to regulate UK funeral providers through the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), offering protection to customers.\n\nEvidence shows some providers have used misleading sales tactics, costing vulnerable customers up to £5,000.\n\nIn 2018 about 177,000 pre-paid funeral plans were sold.\n\nA spokesperson for the Treasury said there were \"widespread concerns around the conduct of funeral providers\" and the sales tactics used to \"get customers to sign up to plans\".\n\nProviders breaching the regulations could also have their authorisation revoked.\n\nA consultation on the proposals is now taking place.\n\nCity minister John Glen said: \"It's shameful that there are those out there who look to prey on people when they are in this often emotional and vulnerable state.\n\n\"That's why I've taken the decision to regulate pre-paid funeral plans, so people can have more confidence in the products they're being offered and peace of mind that their affairs will be handled correctly.\"\n\nThe funeral plan industry has grown nearly 200% between 2006 and 2018.\n\nIt comes as the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said essential costs of a funeral have increased by 6% each year, for the last 14 years.\n\nCurrently funeral plan providers can sign up to an industry regulator voluntarily - so firms can also choose not to sign up to the rules.\n\nUnder the proposals the FCA would oversee regulation of the sector, and customers would have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service.\n\nFuneral Service provider Dignity welcomed the call for greater regulation, saying it would \"protect consumers from misleading advertising and aggressive sales methods\".", "The band played a 24-song set that lasted more than two hours\n\nBTS have made history by becoming the first South Korean group to headline Wembley Stadium.\n\nThe boy band blasted through 24 songs on Saturday, assisted by quirky props, glitter cannons, jet sprays... and 60,000 fans screaming their approval.\n\nThe septet, who said they \"grew up watching videos of Live Aid,\" even paid tribute to Freddie Mercury.\n\nDuring the encore, lavender-haired singer Jin led the crowd in a version of the Queen frontman's \"ay-oh\" chant.\n\n\"You guys always had the greatest artists, historically, in the music industry - The Beatles, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Adele.

It cannot be broken and it cannot be stolen,\" he said.\n\nPeople are tested after shows to see how much they understood and rewarded with prizes such as caps and T-shirts\n\nThe project makes money from non-government organisations (NGOs), many of which have been trying to reach remote communities via more traditional methods, such as lecturers and handing out pamphlets.\n\n\"If people get a pamphlet, they throw it away. And most people don't listen after two or three minutes,\" said Mr Amade.\n\n\"NGOs go to these communities to solve specific problems but the problems remain because people have not understood. With our system, people listen, interact and then we test them.\"\n\nMany of the projects have seen tangible results, according to Mr Amade:\n\nMr Amade has been on the road for the past three years, visiting 90 communities in Mozambique's remotest areas.\n\nAnd he has learned lessons along the way, including how to adapt the technology to account for the country's potholed and dusty roads and how to alter content to suit specific communities.\n\nOne animated video, explaining the importance of hygiene to prevent cholera, horrified one largely Muslim community because it showed someone wiping their bottom with their right hand, the same hand used to eat with.\n\n\"I've made mistakes along the way and sometimes content can offend,\" Mr Amade said.\n\nNow, all content is shown to anthropologists and psychologists based at Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, a university in Maputo.\n\n\"The use of anthropologists is very refreshing and a big part of the story,\" said Mr Banks.\n\n\"Anthropology is ideally placed to help us understand local contexts, cultures, economics and geographies - yet many projects fail to engage them.\"\n\nAfter viewing films, individuals are encouraged to share what they have learned with the audience\n\nThe Community Tablet has been granted a UK patent and Mr Amade is now looking to franchise it.\n\nHe hopes to expand beyond Mozambique and to make inroads into more urban communities.\n\nAlready, he is experimenting with using the system in schools to offer children careers advice.\n\nAnd for those who did not have the luxury of an education, the tablet could be an incredibly powerful tool, he said.\n\n\"The reality of Mozambique is that the quality of education is extremely poor and that is why we remain poor because people are not being empowered properly,\" Mr Amade said.\n\n\"By explaining to people and showing them, you can solve many problems, including the poverty we live in.\"\n• None The challenge in developing start-ups in Africa", "This video can not be played To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.

Or does the parent take a decision - quite a drastic decision - to take him all the way back to wherever that child is from originally?\"\n\nShe says she knows families who are waiting for their children to finish primary school so they can leave the UK.\n\nShe estimates that out of every five Somalian families, two are taking their children back home.\n\nDr Fatumo Abdi - a mother of Somali origin - said parents were struggling to know how to react to knife crime.\n\n\"This is not something they've encountered before. But we know living here in Britain, the context is Britain. This is a British problem and it's a problem that we've fallen into.\n\n\"It's not the answer but these are desperate parents.\"\n\nShe believes poverty, inequality and exposure to violence are big factors as to why young people fall into criminality.\n\n\"Our communities are living in very poor disadvantaged areas with poor educational attainment.

A self-assembly “supersize” nine-hole crazy golf course, with assorted obstacles, 18 putters, 18 balls and 1,000 scorecards certainly sounds like the ultimate kidult gift.\n\nBut it does not come at pocket money prices. It is yours for £3,000.\n\nMore affordable, perhaps, is hiring a four-hole course for just over £200.\n\nSelling and renting these courses is Putter Fingers, a business based in Thetford in Norfolk, which bizarrely is an off-shoot of a software company which started selling courses mainly to show off its ability to make websites.\n\n“The business of crazy golf has a fair bit of growth left in it,” says logistics manager Richard Clarke, explaining that putters are the biggest seller.\n\nSchools, corporate event organisers, couples looking to entertain their guests at a wedding, and birthday entertainers are all regular customers.\n\nBut the really crazy money is being made in big cities like London – all because of a phenomenon called competitive socialising.\n\n“People don’t just want to go to a restaurant or a bar and just eat or drink, they want something else,” says Matt Grech-Smith, co-founder of the crazy golf activity bar Swingers, which employs 250 people.\n\n“Social media is playing a role in that. People want to show off the experiences they are having. Something visually appealing works.”\n\nSwingers – with a name squarely aimed at its over-18 clientele – has two sites in London, a turnover of £18m a year, and a “healthy” profit margin, according to Mr Grech-Smith. The next market to crack, he says, is that original minigolf mecca - New York.\n\nEach site has two nine-hole courses, not-so-subtle mid-round bars to replenish visitors, and choice of meals from burgers to burritos. People typically spend £30 to £50 a night – a lot more than they would for a game of crazy golf and chips on the beach in Hastings.\n\nEven early on a Wednesday afternoon there was huge corporate group eating pizza, drinking beer, and cheering or bemoaning each other’s putting skills. The booze would get them disqualified from official minigolf tournaments, but it is integral to these adult-only venues.\n\nTo the converted, including some commercial landlords, this kind of place is a saviour for the troubled High Street. The theory is strengthened by the fact that Swingers is located in the old flagship store of collapsed retail giant BHS.\n\nElsewhere, the owner of Paradise Island Adventure Golf – which has seven indoor courses in UK shopping centres – was bought in late 2017 for more than £10m.\n\nThe worlds of retail and entertainment are colliding, and are in direct competition with the theatre, concerts, and even home entertainment like Netflix, says Mr Grech-Smith.\n\n“Lots of retail brands are making their shopping experience much more immersive and experience based. The tastes of the consumer are clearly changing,” he says.\n\n“Those destinations that can offer as many different experiences as possible are going to win.”\n\nTo the less convinced, competitive socialising faces an uphill struggle in attracting repeat visitors.\n\nBut, for now, business is booming and the game has momentum.\n\nThe St Andrews Ladies' Putting Club started the ball rolling, it gathered pace in the US in the 1920s, was carried forward by enthusiasts across Europe, and has landed straight into the social media feeds of millennials enjoying a competitive night out.\n\nPlenty of economic obstacles may stop this becoming a second golden age for the game.\n\nBut there are supposed to be obstacles.

their highest one-day total - with Mushfiqur Rahim scoring 78 and Shakib Al Hasan 75 in front of a passionate crowd strongly in their favour.\n\nThe pair put on 142 for the third wicket and, although both fell in the final 15 overs, Mahmudullah helped power his side to the highest total of the tournament with an unbeaten 46 off 33 balls.\n\nSouth Africa, who were sloppy in the field, lost crucial wickets as they rarely threatened to complete the highest World Cup chase in history.\n\nOpener Quinton de Kock fell to a shambolic run-out early on, captain Faf du Plessis was bowled for 62 and Rassie van der Dussen was dismissed for 41 in the 40th over.\n\nThe Proteas still had slim hope with three overs left, JP Duminy at the crease and 44 needed -

they won a tri-series against West Indies and Ireland before this tournament and have series wins over India and Pakistan since the last World Cup - but this result still saw the side ranked seventh in the world beat the one ranked third.\n\nBangladesh were given a solid start by Tamim Iqbal and Soumya Sarkar, who shared a stand of 60, but the experienced pair of Shakib and Mushfiqur rebuilt excellently after both openers fell.\n\nThey rotated the strike and scored freely through extra cover and square leg, scoring at close to a run a ball.\n\nIt looked like Bangladesh would let a good position slip when Mushfiqur departed soon after Shakib, but Mahmudullah's late hitting, which included three fours and a big six over mid-wicket, and support from Mosaddek Hossain, who made 26, regained momentum as 54 runs came from the last four overs.\n\nWith the ball, Bangladesh were more disciplined than the Proteas, with their spinners economical on the same pitch used for England's win over South Africa.\n\nShakib bowled opener Aiden Markram through the gate for 45 and Mehedi Hasan turned one between Du Plessis' bat and pad as he advanced down the pitch.\n\nSeamers Mohammad Saifuddin and Mustafizur Rahman returned later in the innings to seal victory, with the former bowling a wicket maiden that included the scalp of the well-set Van der Dussen.\n\nBangladesh play New Zealand in a day-night game on Wednesday, again at The Oval.\n\nFor all Bangladesh's good play, they were helped by South Africa's flat and untidy showing.\n\nThe Proteas showed little evidence of learning from the defeat by England, even though the match was played on the same pitch.\n\nIn the fifth over they missed an opportunity with an edge from Soumya going between Markram at first slip and Du Plessis at second, with neither making a real effort to go for the catch.\n\nIn the overs that followed there were a number of misfields and, in the 47th over Kagiso Rabada put down Mahmudullah when he was on 12, which proved costly.\n\nSouth Africa lost fast bowler Lungi Ngidi to a hamstring injury after he bowled only four overs, but they also disappointed with the bat.\n\nEvery member of the top six faced at least 30 balls but no-one showed sustained aggression to reduce the increasing required run-rate.\n\nDe Kock was out in comical fashion, being called for a run by Markram before both stopped midway down the pitch and the left-hander was stranded when wicketkeeper Mushfiqur threw down the stumps.\n\nSouth Africa face India, one of the main contenders for the tournament, at Southampton on Wednesday.\n\n'I can promise there will be fight on Wednesday' -

He will now join the likes of Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson as dominant champions to suffer losses which brought the sport to a standstill.\n\n\"I got beaten by a good fighter,\" said 29-year-old Joshua. \"It will be interesting to see how far he goes, but this is all part of the journey.\n\n\"He's a champion for now, I shall return.\"\n• None Joshua vows to 'get the belts back' after 'minor setback'\n• None Re-live how Ruiz Jr beat Joshua to shake up the heavyweight division\n\nThis was no fluke, no punch from the ages, it was the breakdown of a fighter who looked shattered from an early stage.\n\nAfter flooring Ruiz with a left hook in the third round, Joshua hit the canvas when a right crashed against his temple. By the time a sensational three minutes was up he had been down again thanks to a flurry when cornered.\n\nIt created an electric buzz amongst the 19,000 or so in the arena. Just what was happening? Were they going to see the unthinkable?\n\nRuiz, 29, was not even supposed to be here. He took the bout at six weeks' notice and tickets were being collected by fans 24 hours before the bout which still had the name of Jarrell Miller - Joshua's original opponent - printed on them.\n\nBy the seventh round, when Joshua touched down under a flurry of shots again, the game looked up. Seconds later he was down on all fours again and spat his gum shield out, perhaps to buy time.\n\nHe simply did not have it. The bout was waved off and all that was planned for the glamour division was ripped up thanks to a man who had been dubbed unglamorous because of his rounded physique.\n\nRuiz, from appearance to pedigree, was an underdog in every sense of the word. When Britons wake up on Sunday morning, they will read of a truly iconic upset.\n\nNot the Joshua Britain knows\n\nRuiz, American born but with Mexican parents, becomes Mexico's first heavyweight world champion, just as he said he would.\n\nWhen Joshua sat down with the media on Wednesday, virtually every question directed at him was about his future, not this bout.\n\nHe said he was \"seeing the bigger picture\" and maybe therein lies the problem.\n\nAfter six fairly tentative minutes from both men he scored his knockdown from a crisp left hook as the pair boxed up close. Normal order appeared set to play out.\n\nMoments later when he himself hit the deck, we were taken back to his titanic struggle with Wladimir Klitschko. The night was on a cliff edge, simply do not blink.\n\nAnd from that first knock down, he never appeared comfortable. Whether it be stamina, a lack of focus or a lack of preparation for his late stand-in, this was not the Joshua the travelling 8,000 strong army of British fans had grown to know.\n\nIn the sixth round there were warning signs. After a smart left hook and right hand combination from Ruiz early on, he went on to take pot shots at Joshua's head, with the champion seemingly too fatigued to even muster a guard while his legs appeared confused below him.\n\nAnd then came the finish, mainly built from punch volume as Ruiz overwhelmed his vulnerable opponent with two knock downs in quick succession. The crowd seemed frozen. Surely not? Yes, it was over.\n\nThere will be questions because Joshua is his own biggest analyst. For now, there is only disbelief.\n\nRematch before the year is over\n\nJoshua was down on two cards and up on one when the stoppage came but, according to promoter Eddie Hearn, he will get his chance to rectify things in a rematch in London, in November or December.\n\n\"This will devastate him,\" said Hearn. \"He will come back. It's now down to the rematch and winning that fight.\n\n\"To get back to the heights he has been, he must win that rematch.\"\n\nFor now, all talk of facing Tyson Fury or WBC champion Deontay Wilder can stop.\n\nRuiz, who now has 33 wins and one loss can temporarily bask in the glory of his glorious night. He joins James 'Buster' Douglas - who humbled Tyson in 1990 - and Hasim Rahman who beat Lewis in 2001 as men to land colossal upsets.\n\nLewis of course responded by winning a rematch. Ruiz though showed plenty here to suggest Joshua will have to find plenty to do the same.\n\nRuiz was calm and calculated in staying away from Joshua's obvious power early on. When he stepped forward he did so with conviction and threw plenty, ensuring he got shots off to justify the risk of making himself vulnerable.\n\nWhen he did take shots after being floored, he took them and ploughed on gamely.\n\nThis bout changed his and his five children's lives financially. The rematch will do so even more.\n\n\"This is what I have been dreaming about and I cannot believe I made my dreams come true,\" he said.\n\n\"That was my first time getting dropped on the floor but it made me want it even more.\"\n\nFrom starting boxing aged six, to being taunted and doubted because of his weight, he has now come up trumps to deliver the ultimate 'I told you so' moment.\n\nHe rightly said \"the sky is the limit now\", while Joshua will look back on a US bow which was wrecked.\n\nBBC Radio 5 Live boxing pundit Steve Bunce: \"Anthony Joshua was a broken man in that seventh round. He spat his gum shield out and went back to the ropes. The referee had no option but to stop the fight.\n\n\"Anthony Joshua is not going to be able to get away with saying 'what a great fight that was - everyone was entertained'.\n\n\"That is not good enough.\"\n\nFormer world heavyweight champion and BBC Radio 5 Live pundit, David Haye: \"If Anthony Joshua is as healthy and fit as he says he is, then there is something wrong.

the proportion of those who climb above base camp that die - has fallen to below 1%.\n\nSince 2010, there have been 72 deaths on Everest and 7,954 climbs above base camp.\n\nMost of these deaths are from avalanches or falls, which partially explains the difficulty in retrieving bodies from the mountain.\n\nAcute mountain sickness, with symptoms of dizziness, vomiting and headaches, has also caused deaths.\n\nWhile the risks are clear, Alan Arnette, a professional mountaineer who counts Everest and K2 among his climbs, points out that it is significantly safer climbing Everest than elsewhere in the Himalayas.\n\nOn Everest, he says, \"it's basically just following a well-used route\".\n\n\"There is a lot more infrastructure, more tea houses, more helicopter airlifts possible,\" he says.\n\n\"In some of the mountains in Pakistan you have to rely on an army helicopter.\"\n\nThe recent deaths of two climbers in Pakistan have highlighted that danger.\n\nThe British climber Tom Ballard and his Italian climbing partner Daniele Nardi died attempting to scale the Himalayan peak Nanga Parbat, known colloquially as \"Killer Mountain\".\n\nTom's mother, Alison Hargreaves, had previously died climbing K2, the world's second-highest peak, also in Pakistan.\n\nBoth Nanga Parbat and K2 are considered two of the toughest of the \"eight-thousanders\" - the 14 mountains higher than 8,000m (26,000ft).\n\nStatistics on successful attempts and deaths are not as readily available in Pakistan.\n\nBut calculations done by Mr Arnette and other climbers show Nanga Parbat has had 339 successful ascents to the summit and 69 deaths.\n\nThat works out at roughly one death for every five successful ascents to the summit.\n\nK2, which is part of the neighbouring Karakoram mountain range, is even more dangerous - there have been 355 successful ascents to the summit and 82 deaths.\n\nMost Himalayan ascents are not attempted from Pakistan but from mountains with their peaks in Nepal.\n\nAnd statistics are more detailed in this part of the Himalayas, thanks primarily to the work of journalist Elizabeth Hawley.\n\nHer Himalayan Database is seen as the most authoritative records of climbs, successful or unsuccessful, of more than 450 peaks in the region, including Everest.\n\nUnlike records from Pakistan, the Himalayan Database collects information not just on successful ascents to the summit but also on all those who venture beyond base camps, giving a more accurate view of the danger of the mountains.\n\nAnd for all climbs above base camp in the region, the death rate has dropped from 3% in the 1950s to 0.9% over the past decade.\n\nFor Sherpas, the Nepalese professional climbers hired to support mountaineering teams, it has declined from 1.3% to 0.8%.\n\nSince 2010, there have been 183 recorded deaths above base camp in the region, according to the Himalayan Database, and over 21,000 climbs above base camp.\n\nThe statistics also shine a light on which mountain peak poses the greatest threat to climbers.\n\nSince 2010, out of the four mountaineers to have climbed Yalung Kang, three have died.\n\nThe overall number climbing these peaks is small, which does skew the figures, but ultimately reiterates the point that the mountains less well trod are potentially the most lethal.", "In 2017 Lubaina Himid won the £25,000 Turner Prize -

The Queen: \"I am confident our common values and shared interests will continue to unite us\".\n\nPresident Donald Trump has praised the \"eternal friendship\" between the UK and US as he joined a state banquet at Buckingham Palace.\n\nThe Queen said the countries were celebrating an alliance which had ensured the \"safety and prosperity of both our peoples for decades\".\n\nThe president is in the UK for a three-day state visit, which includes the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings.\n\nEarlier in the day, Mr Trump criticised the mayor of London.\n\nHe tweeted that Sadiq Khan - who had said the UK should \"not roll out the red carpet\" for Mr Trump - was a \"stone cold loser\".\n\nBut in his speech at the banquet, Mr Trump praised the courage of the British people during World War Two and called the Queen a \"great, great woman\".\n\n\"In that dark hour, the people of this nation showed the world what it means to be British,\" he said, adding that their bravery ensured that the destiny of the country \"remained in your own hands\".\n\nMr Trump ended his speech with a toast to \"the eternal friendship of our people, the vitality of our nations and to the long-cherished and truly remarkable reign of Her Majesty the Queen\".\n\nThe Queen praised the two countries' role in creating an assembly of international institutions that would ensure \"the horrors of conflict would never be repeated\".\n\nOn Twitter before the banquet, Mr Trump praised the welcome from the Royal Family as \"fantastic\" and said the relationship with the UK is \"very strong\".\n\nHe also said a post-Brexit trade deal could happen once the UK removed the \"shackles\", adding: \"Already starting to talk!\"\n\nLarge-scale protests are planned in several UK cities during the three-day visit, including in London, where a \"national demonstration\" will start at Trafalgar Square at 11:00 on Tuesday.\n\nThe Duchess of Cambridge was escorted into the banquet by US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin\n\nThe banquet was held in the ballroom at Buckingham Palace\n\nThe American national anthem was played and Mr Trump was invited to inspect the guard of honour\n\nLabour leader Jeremy Corbyn - who boycotted the state dinner - is due to attend and speak at the London demonstration, a party spokesman has confirmed.\n\nEarlier, Mr Corbyn tweeted: \"Tomorrow's protest against Donald Trump's state visit is an opportunity to stand in solidarity with those he's attacked in America, around the world and in our own country - including, just this morning, Sadiq Khan.\"\n\nMr Trump's tweet about Mr Khan accused him of doing a \"terrible job\" as mayor, adding: \"[He] has been foolishly \"nasty\" to the visiting president of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me.\"\n\nThe contrast could not have been starker.

But Health Secretary Matt Hancock said the office of the mayor of London should be respected in the same way one respects the office of the president.\n\nThis visit has only just begun and already the Great Disruptor is tweeting angry thoughts and breaching diplomatic niceties.

The Queen usually receives one or two heads of state per year and has hosted 112 of these visits since becoming monarch in 1952.", "US President Donald Trump will touch down in the UK on Tuesday for a Nato summit - the second visit he has made to Britain this year. What will the security operation involve and what hardware and staff will the president bring with him?\n\nWhenever the US president arrives in the UK, a multi-million-pound security operation is brought into action.\n\nMr Trump's three-day state visit in June, which involved more than 6,300 officers, cost the Metropolitan Police £3.4m, according to figures released under the Freedom of Information Act. A previous four-day working visit in 2018 cost more than £14.2m.\n\nHere are some of the incredible vehicles and entourage the president could be bringing with him this time around.\n\nThe president is likely to arrive in the UK on his customised, high-spec aircraft Air Force One.\n\nAir Force One isn't actually a specific plane but instead refers to one of two specially adapted Boeing 747-200B series aircraft, which carry the tail codes 28000 and 29000.\n\nWith its advanced avionics and defences, Air Force One is classed as a military aircraft, designed to withstand an air attack.\n\nIt can jam enemy radar and eject flares to throw heat-seeking missiles off course.\n\nIt is also capable of refuelling midair, allowing it to fly for an unlimited time - crucial in an emergency.\n\nAir Force One is also equipped with secure communications equipment, allowing the aircraft to function as a mobile command centre.\n\nThere are 85 onboard telephones, a collection of two-way radios and computer connections.\n\nInside, the president and his travel companions enjoy 4,000 sq ft of floor space on three levels, including an extensive suite for the president, a medical facility with an operating table, a conference and dining room, two food preparation galleys that can feed 100 people at a time, and designated areas for the press, VIPs, security and secretarial staff.\n\nSeveral cargo planes, including C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft, carry the president's fleet of armoured vehicles and helicopters, usually landing in advance of his arrival.\n\nAccording to the Washington Post, the president is always accompanied by a military aide carrying an emergency satchel known as the \"football\", which contains the \"gold codes\" for launching the country's nuclear weapons and options for their use.\n\nThe military aide must be nearby the president at all times, as the commander-in-chief is in possession of personal identification codes required to order a strike.\n\nThey are carried on a plastic card known as the \"biscuit\", which can be read only when its opaque plastic covering is snapped in two and removed.\n\nThe presidential motorcade, which includes two identical limousines and other security and communications vehicles, are transported ahead of the president by United States Air Force transport aircraft.\n\nOn the ground, the president travels in Cadillac One - a bullish, enhanced limousine dubbed the \"Beast\" for obvious reasons.\n\nThe spare, decoy vehicle that accompanies it has the same Washington DC licence plates - 800-002.\n\nPresident Trump's generation of presidential car debuted in 2018 - with the US Secret Service tweeting ahead of the UN General Assembly that it was \"ready to roll\".\n\nBut the service and vehicle's designers at General Motors have remained tight-lipped about the vehicle's special security features.\n\nWeighing in at about nine tonnes (20,000lb) - with an armour-plated body and bulletproof windows (which don't all open) - the car is reported to have tear gas grenade launchers, night vision cameras and a built-in satellite phone.\n\nReinforced tyres surround steel-rimmed wheels, which mean the car can still be driven if the tyres are flat.\n\nThe passenger cabin is said to be sealed, to fend off a chemical attack, while special foam would surround the fuel tank in case of impact.\n\nThe vehicle also has extensive electronic equipment, Reuters reports.\n\nThe car can hold at least seven people and has a wide range of medical supplies on board, including - NBC News suggests - a fridge full of blood matching the president's blood type, in case of emergency.\n\nWhen the president's on the move - you know about it.\n\nOther vehicles in the cavalcade include a parade of police outriders, secret service backup vehicles, counter-assault and hazardous attack teams, an armoured SUV communications vehicle, known as Roadrunner, medics and the press corps.\n\nThe president could also bring a fleet of helicopters with him to the UK.\n\nAmong them Marine One, which, like Air Force One, isn't a specific aircraft but instead refers to any US Marine Corps aircraft carrying the president.\n\nHowever, Marine One usually refers to one of the president's large Sikorsky VH-3D Sea Kings or the newer, smaller VH-60N White Hawks.\n\nThe specially adapted helicopters are known as \"white tops\" because of their livery and are fitted with communications equipment, anti-missile defences and hardened hulls.\n\nIt was Sea King versions that met the president at Stansted Airport and carried him to London, accompanied by tandem rotor chinook aircraft.\n\nAs a security measure, Marine One often flies in a group of identical helicopters acting as decoys.\n\nIt is also usually accompanied by two or three Osprey MV-22 escort aircraft, referred to as \"green tops\".\n\nThese tilt-rotor aircraft carry support staff, special forces and secret service agents, who are tasked with dealing with any mid-flight emergency.\n\nThe Ospreys, capable of vertical landings and high-speed flight, were heard circling around London during President Trump's last visit to the UK in 2018.\n\nStaff are also transported around in CH-46s Sea Knight helicopters.\n\nBritish forces' aircraft are also likely to be part of the security operation during his visit.\n\nSome estimates put the number of people in Mr Trump's entourage for his UK visit in 2018 at 1,000, including more than 150 US secret service agents.\n\nStaff included military communications specialists, White House aides, a doctor, a chef and members of the media.\n\nSome 750 rooms were booked out to accommodate his entourage, according to Matt Chorley, of the Times newspaper.\n\nFor his 2019 state visit, the president was reported to have booked a floor of the Corinthia Hotel in Westminster for his family and entourage.\n\nThis time around Mr Trump will be in London and Hertfordshire between 2 and 4 December for the Nato summit.\n\nHe will also attend a reception at Buckingham Palace on 3 December, which will be hosted by the Queen.\n• None Donald Trump state visit: All you need to know", "Visa applicants will have to provide all their social media usernames\n\nNearly all applicants for US visas will have to submit their social media details under newly adopted rules.\n\nThe State Department regulations say people will have to submit social media names and five years' worth of email addresses and phone numbers.\n\nWhen proposed last year, authorities estimated the proposal would affect 14.7 million people annually.\n\nCertain diplomatic and official visa applicants will be exempt from the stringent new measures.\n\nHowever, people travelling to the US to work or to study will have to hand over their information.\n\n\"We are constantly working to find mechanisms to improve our screening processes to protect US citizens, while supporting legitimate travel to the United States,\" the department reportedly said.\n\nPreviously, only applicants who needed additional vetting -
