this is bbc news, the headlines. reform uk leader nigel farage holds a rally in birmingham — days after the party was embroiled in a racism scandal, which led to three candidates being dropped. he told 4,000 supporters that he felt compelled to "come out of retirement". police in tenerife confirm that the search for missing british voting is underway in the first round of france's parliamentary elections. support for the far—right national rally party has surged since they won the european elections three weeks ago. police in tenerife confirm that the search for missing british teenagerjay slater has been called off after nearly two weeks. police on the island told the bbc that �*yesterday was the final day of the search�*. and england take on slovakia — in their first knockout match at the european football championships in germany.

the game kicks off in the next couple of hours. the winner takes on... the coastal towns... with only days until the general election, the bbc is visiting communities across the country to find out what people are most concerned about. the coastal towns of dover and deal are often at the centre of conversations about immigration — but that's not the only issue on voters�* minds, as charlotte wright reports. it's the gateway to britain, so often at the centre of the story, whether it's the arrival of small boats or delays at the port. but while there is much talk about this town, we've come to hear from those who live, work and play here. at this boxing gym, the cost of living is having a big impact. the prices have gone up, and the wages people are getting paid ain't really changed,

so, yeah, it'sjust hard. it's hard for everyone, really. housing is an issue, you know? i think people are really struggling. do you notice, people that come here, do they talk to you about it as well? yeah, even most of the kids can't afford it and stuff like that because of everything that's going on. but most of the time... we're a charitable—based boxing club — we do let quite a lot of the kids come for free, if they can't afford it, because i'd rather them be here than sat on the computer. but when it comes to what those running for office can do to help, we find a strong sense of disillusionment. i used to really be into politics, but since covid, i completely shut off from it. they tell you what you want to hear and then when they get in, they do what they're going to do anyway. but i just feel like they're so disconnected from, like, the working people. a major source of employment in the town is the port, but it brings its challenges, too. any delays at border controls and there are queues for miles, causing traffic gridlock in the area, leaving businesses like this mobility shop immobile. they say politicians need to find a better solution. we've had occasions where we can't even get to work ourselves,

so we cannot open, and if we can get here and we do open, we sit all day, just no custom because outside it's completely gridlocked. we've had customers phone us up who've had issues and, you know, got a puncture or, you know, their batteries have failed and they need our help and we can't get to them. well, a very good afternooni and welcome to deal radio. at lunchtime we head along the coast. although deal and dover are only around eight miles apart, the two towns have a very different feel. at the community radio station, they tell us the demographic here has changed as a growing number of people have moved in from london. because the value of the properties have increased quite extraordinarily, really, it means that younger people on ordinary wages can't get a foothold into the marketplace. and so i would say that affordable housing is one of the key issues. and would you like to see more built around here? yeah, iwould, yeah. what are the big issues here in deal? um, transport. i mean, i'm lucky i drive,

but friends, they live in a street where there's lots of elderly people and the bus route has gone. so it's quite difficult, you know, to get backwards and forwards. but other than that, deal is beautiful. 0ur nhs, i really want them to support it. are you worried about kind of investment in the public sector and the amount of money that's going into it? absolutely, it's not enough. and would you be happy to pay more for that? would you be happy to pay higher taxes? i probably would do, yes, absolutely. by the evening, we're back in dover. in a town where most of the small boat arrivals are processed, it's perhaps not surprising that it's a topic of conversation at the working men's club. the one that pops to mind mostly is immigration, to be honest with you, the amount that's turning up on our beaches. a lot of people disagree, but they get a lot of hand—outs when they do get here. and i myself have been through hard times and i struggle to get anything. and it kind of frustrates me that, you know, people can come over here and they get help handed to them on a plate. but not everyone here agrees.

i think a lot of people have got the wrong idea of what's going on with these immigrants. these people didn't ask to be born in the country that they were born in. they didn't ask to be in afghanistan, where girls and women haven't got any kind of life. i've got every sympathy for that kind of person. what people think in this constituency does matter to politicians, as for years, how they vote here has reflected the national result. so next week, all eyes will be on dover as a key election battleground. charlotte wright, bbc news, dover. and you can find a full list of candidates standing on the bbc news website. england's footballers take on slovakia this evening — in their first knockout match at the european championships in germany. whoever wins that match will play switzerland — who've caused a major upset by knocking out the defending england's footballers take

on slovakia this evening — champions, italy, 2—0 in berlin. meanwhile, the hosts germany are also into the quarterfinals after beating denmark 2—0. goals from kai havertz and jamal musiala proved enough to take germany through to the last eight. they will next play the winner of sunday's game between spain, who have looked one of the best sides so far, and the surprise package georgia. 0ur sports reporterjoe inwood is with fans in brixton. is the atmosphere as excited as it has been given england's performance? i has been given england's performance?— has been given england's erformance? . �* ., ., performance? i am in brixton and it is buildin: performance? i am in brixton and it is building here. _ performance? i am in brixton and it is building here. a _ performance? i am in brixton and it is building here. a couple _ performance? i am in brixton and it is building here. a couple of - performance? i am in brixton and it is building here. a couple of hours. is building here. a couple of hours before kick—off and there is a lot of england charts. it is completely sold out here, they have 500 people coming here. iwas sold out here, they have 500 people coming here. i was here for some senior game and at the end of that,

even though the crowd was broadly supportive of england, they were boos at the end just as we saw in the stadium in germany. i think there is a real nervousness amongst england supporters in general. because the performances we have seen from england so far, in those three games, have nowhere close to what people expected. england have gonein what people expected. england have gone in to one if the competition is one of the favourites. when you look at their games, i saw a ranking by a paper, and england, their games were three of the most dull games in the entire tournament according to that ranking. it is notjust the performances have been bad in terms of the results, they have been so—so, but what has gareth southgate has got out of this incredibly talented squad of players as men noted. lets speak to some of the fans who have come here to hopefully enjoy the game. what is your name?

joe. what are your predictions? i think we all win 2—0. how much is this and make or break, if england go out it will be a disaster. if they have another bad performance... i feel like this is the whole issue. the whole country is focused on that so massively when we need to be more positive and go in with advice. the? positive and go in with advice. they have earned — positive and go in with advice. they have earned that _ positive and go in with advice. they have earned that right from previous near successes which has never happened — near successes which has never happened before. ithink near successes which has never happened before. i think we will win it. happened before. i think we will win it do _ happened before. i think we will win it. , ., ~ happened before. i think we will win it. do you think england's chances, we could go _ it. do you think england's chances, we could go deeper _ it. do you think england's chances, we could go deeper into _ it. do you think england's chances, we could go deeper into this? - we could go deeper into this? especially with our lack of the draw — especially with our lack of the draw. even so we are hard to beat the stock — draw. even so we are hard to beat the stock we have not been amazing to watch _ the stock we have not been amazing to watch. impossible to break down. i cannot_ to watch. impossible to break down. i cannot see — to watch. impossible to break down. i cannot see us losing today, definitely not.— i cannot see us losing today, definitel not. ~ . , ., definitely not. what is your name? alex.

videos of the england manager that have been circulating on social media platforms tiktok and instagram, generating millions of years. and containing crude remarks about england players currently taking part in the euros and those who are left at home, potentially exacerbating the pressure he is already under. it is just so realistic these days, isn't it? you just can't get out of your head. i think it's kind of harmless fun. apparently gareth doesn't read anything or watch any social media anyway so he is aware which is potentially part of the problem. it is quite funny. i think people find . it fake straightaway. i don't mind it. while some fans might find it funny, in response to being alerted alerted to the videos, the football association said, as we do with all harmful content, we will take steps to have these offensive videos removed. gareth and everyone in camp are focused on sunday's game. how convincing the sort of material are largely depend on how you consume it.

if you look at it on a big screen like this, it will be much easier to see that it is fake. that becomes tricky if you are scrolling on a smartphone while on the go. and experts warn it is notjust those little profiles who are vulnerable to this sort of manipulation. it is notjust people who have a big digital footprint whose identity can be co—opted. i can take something as little as 30 seconds of somebody�*s voice, a short as a single image of somebody and create deepfakes, so, yes, heads of sports teams, politicians, videos have huge vulnerability as actors and actresses. but also you and me and now most people who have just a small list of digital footprints can be deep—faked so, why you are thinking about this, don'tjust think about those figures who are hope profile, this is if it now suddenly goes to your mother, your brother and your siblings. shortly after the bbc approached tiktok about these videos, as this new frontier of social media becomes ever more sophisticated, it will only become more difficult to

spot what is fake and what is real making the so—called impossible job even harder. laura scott, bbc news. strawberries and cream, pimm's and the queue, it can only mean one thing — it must be wimbledon. one of the crown jewels of the british sporting calendar, play begins tomorrow.7 time mens chamion novak djokovic is playing — but there's still no news on whether the former champion andy murray will take part. let's take a look at the runners and riders in this championships with our reporter emer mccarthy. have we got an update on andy murray? he is 37 years old, he has hinted at retirement and he had an operation on his back last week. if he does

play, he is set to meet his opponent from the czech republic on tuesday and he has been granted a wild card to play doubles with his brother jamie. but we still have no news from camp marie yet. we are waiting on tenterhooks. emma raducanu is another british player we'll be looking out for tomorrow? she has been seen hitting up in an england kit. she will be having your rise on the match this afternoon. mr one there west open in 2021. she has sadly been plagued with injury for the last few years and she does not haveit the last few years and she does not have it easy. she will face the 22nd seed on centre court tomorrow. she has a tough journey ahead.

who are some other names you'll be watching? the big name has to be alcatraz. he is the reigning wimbledon men's champion. he was speaking to reporters yesterday about how he is feeling and he sounds pretty confident. i'm feeling great. honestly, after queens, i had a lot of days to adapt my game, to practice, to get better. yeah, i... i rememberafter losing in queens, the next day i started practising my movements, my serve, just to be more comfortable, i'm playing on grass this year. and right now i had great practice with great players just to see how is my level. and right now i think i am ready

to start the tournament. so he does sign pretty confident. let's see if he can make it back—to—back wimbledon titles. he is in the same side of the match as the top seed, yannick sonaro. it may not be the easiest run to the championship for carlos alcatraz either. ~ ., , , ., either. who needs pimms. you have not is either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready — either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and _ either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and in _ either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and in the _ either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and in the main - either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and in the main set - either. who needs pimms. you have got is ready and in the main set and| got is ready and in the main set and in the mood for wimbledon. thank you. thanks for being here on bbc news. you can find out more about the stories we have been covering on the stories we have been covering on the bbc news website.

accommodation on very little data i have had, in the last hour we have had communications down again. this makes it terribly frightening for this population. they have been cut off from their families and each other and the world for a large parts of this war. where there is the bombardment, in the middle area, in the south and in the middle and in the south and in the middle and in the south and in the middle and in the north as well, all we hear throughout the day and night are these thundering booms and the military action is continuous, it is ongoing. it is terrifying for everyone around and it is difficult for us to receive information but also to get information for the reasons i have said. in addition to that we have a severe lack of fuel at the moment. in terms of communications being down, another one of the challenges we have is we cannot even get into a vehicle a lot of the time and move. there is reports that a huge desalination

plant well ran out of fuel very shortly. that means thati million people will be impacted by such an event that this is something we have been facing for the last eight months. lack of communication, lack of fuel, the humanitarian responses challenged and makes every day impossible for the population here. this has been the case for the last several months, we have spoken to you in many others doing a similar role to you on bbc news. what do you think needs to happen for the situation to actually change and for us to not to be having a discussion like this again in weeks and months to come? i like this again in weeks and months to come? ., ., , , ., to come? i mean, honestly, there are --eole to come? i mean, honestly, there are people here — to come? i mean, honestly, there are people here are _ to come? i mean, honestly, there are people here are so — to come? i mean, honestly, there are people here are so exhausted. - to come? i mean, honestly, there are people here are so exhausted. they i people here are so exhausted. they are tired. it very much feels like the humanitarians, the people, we are pushing a rock up a hill to get any kind of progress, to get any kind of support to the families. we

need more aid, we need more supplies, it has never been enough. for eight months it has never been enough and now it has been the worst, no doubt tomorrow it will be the worst again. i talk about the people who are now having the choice, the choices are living a man piles of trash that are rotting in the heat or in bombed out rubble filled buildings with no bathrooms, no running water and it is the similar case for the humanitarians. we are now going back to buildings that have been bombed out and destroyed and we are now running humanitarian operations from these very same buildings. it is a complete circle, it is going round and round, there is no progress. the humanitarian support, it is devastating to see their bodies and people buried in these facilities

and there is nowhere else for us to go. we need to keep providing support to people, we keep doing everything we can, providing food, dignity kits, hygiene kits and water, and the only way we can do thatis water, and the only way we can do that is to go back to these buildings, all but destroyed, we are trying to distribute food but it is impossible. it does feel impossible. everybody is tired. the humanitarians here are part of the displaced community. they have been going through this displacement for eight months like this community and it feels like this will never end. the heat of the summer is upon us and with less water and disease spreading with these piles of trash everywhere, it is absolutely unbearable.— everywhere, it is absolutely unbearable. ., , ., ., unbearable. louise, thank you for aaivin us unbearable. louise, thank you for giving us a _ unbearable. louise, thank you for giving us a very — unbearable. louise, thank you for giving us a very clear _ unbearable. louise, thank you for giving us a very clear picture - unbearable. louise, thank you for giving us a very clear picture of i giving us a very clear picture of the situation on the ground where you are in the central gaza strip.

activities level that there is in the way that it happened around 2015 when we saw a lot of european volunteers going to fight for isis. that is not happening in the same way, but they are very strong in parts of africa, particularly in sub—saharan africa end in mozambique and the democratic republic of the congo, and the areas of their... and roughly between two thirds and 85% of the attacks in the last 12 months have taken place there. why is this? they are still active in syria but less so in iraq. they have lost their physical caliphate that they had. they were defeated physically in 2019 at a place in syria. that is when the last remaining stronghold of isis was wiped out. but the ideology has not gone away, it is

still attracted to some people with people with poor governance or poor orders where young people see absolutely no hope. so it is still a force to be reckoned with in afghanistan, for example, where they are fighting the taliban. they are active in those african countries i mentioned and the threat to europe has not gone away. so in terms into a counterterrorism, we have the olympics coming up in france this 0lympics coming up in france this summer. the threat to european cities and european communities is definitely still there. the radicalised effect of nine months plus of war in gaza has certainly helped isis to recruit in some areas. so it is one to watch. just because we have not heard from them in europe, does not mean the threat has gone away.

the game kicks off, england facing slovakia in the euro 2024 last 16. we were hearing from other fans who are gearing up and not being put off by what has been criticised freely as england's performance in the last two games and gareth southgate facing criticism as well. we were hearing fans who were staunchly defending him and feeling very optimistic about the results of the game. there isjust one change optimistic about the results of the game. there is just one change that gareth southgate has made to the england side. but that is all coming up england side. but that is all coming up soon. there is plenty more on that and on other stories as well. so that is the england— slovakia

game due to start in just over one hour. now it's time for a look at the weather with stav danaos. hello there, part two of the weekend looking cloudier and cooler across the board. we saw a top temperature of 25 degrees across the south east of england yesterday. looking more like 20 or 21 today. and that is pretty much how the week ahead is shaping up, it's going to be changeable, low pressure always close by, most of the rain in the north and the west of the country. rather cool further time of year. still no signs of another hot and sunny spell on the cards. this ridge of high pressure has brought quite a bit of dry weather around this morning, a few splashes of rain in towards the south east of england. through the afternoon, the cloud just may be thick enough down the spine of the country for the odd spit and spot of rain. 0therwise mostly dry, limited sunshine. probably the best of it southern and south—west england, where there could be highs of 20 or 21 degrees. for the most, though, it is the mid to high teens.

this evening, any showers or spits and spots of rain will fade away. and overnight, it turns drier with clear spells developing. we look to the west for a new set of weather fronts pushing in to bring thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain. temperatures becoming 12 degrees. under clearer skies further east, we could see a few single digits. into monday, this weather front crossing the country. in the southern flank, there will not be that much on the way of rain, should be mostly dry and it will fizzle towards the east. we start with some sunshine, most of the rain across scotland, northern england and pushing out to the north sea. because of a lack of sunshine, disappointing 20 or 21 degrees. monday is the first day of wimbledon, there could be the odd spot of rain on that front as it moves in. better chance of staying dry on tuesday, perhaps a few glimmers of brightness, temperatures into the low 20s. this ridge of high pressure exerts its force across the country a little bit more on tuesday.

we start off on a fine note, lots of sunshine for england and wales. this westerly breeze will bring showers and longer spells of rain pushing into scotland and northern and western scotland, a little bit wetter, temperatures disappointing, 14 to 21 degrees. most of the rain will be a northern and western areas, the better escaping the rain in the south end the east but cool further time of year. both by day and by night.
