live from london, this is bbc news. england leave it late to come from behind — but a harry kane header gives them victory over slovakia at euro 202a. lam i am life in paris, where the far right national rally party is projected to have won the first round of france's parliamentary election. a reform uk candidate disowns the party — saying he's disillusioned — and endorses the local conservative candidate instead. welcome to bbc news. we start at the euros where england
8:01 pm
have come within a minute of being knocked out, but managed to beat slovakia to secure their place in the last eight. they went behind in the first half and needed a goal deep into injury time at the end of the second half, from jude bellingham, to equalise. butjust a couple of minutes into extra time a goal from harry kane gave them the lead, which they held, giving them victory in last 16 tie. watching all of this is my colleague. joe inwood is in a fan zone in brixton. harry kane during the interviews after the match described jude bellingham him's goal is one of the best in england because �*s history. it certainly was and it was needed here because the first 90 minutes the mood had been sombre and
8:02 pm
despairing, a belief that england performance. if you look around now, you can see... if i am honest things in the last ten seconds have got rather out of hand, but in general it has been a joyous mood and an extraordinary game of football. harry kane had if not the finest, one of the most consequential goals. if england had gone out to a team ranked a0 places below them, it would be a humiliating moment for england and gareth southgate. as it was, it was a turning point. harry kane scored and everything changed. there has been a wonderful mood here and a sense ofjoy, it almost feels

8:04 pm
a little bit earlier onjoe was talking about gareth southgate's future. that is how things change, not fickle at all, our bay, england fans. a lot of fun there in brixton in south london. the far—right national rally is projected to have won the most votes in the first round of the parliamentary election in france. exit polls predict it's garnered as much as 3a%, about 6% more than the left— wing coalition, the new popular front. trailing in third was the centrist alliance of president emmanuel macron, withjust over 20%. let's speak to our correspondent mark lowen in paris. the first projections are now coming through as the votes are counted in that snap parliamentary election. broadly in line with the exit polls with the far right national rally in
8:05 pm
the lead with quite a decisive victory for them, which would potentially translate into between 260 and 310 seats in parliament. if that was to be replicated in the second round any week's time, it could potentially mean the far right could potentially mean the far right could get an absolute majority and go into government for the first time in france since the second world war. there is the second round, second place in this projection for a coalition of left—wing parties and then behind them the centrist coalition of president emmanuel macron. they will be hoping to come together and unite to block the national rally in the second round of this election any weeks' time. a little earlier, there werejubilant weeks' time. a little earlier, there were jubilant scenes at the national rally headquarters, perhaps not quite thejubilation of rally headquarters, perhaps not quite the jubilation of the england football fans but not far off, and the de facto head marine le pen

8:07 pm
said... he is making reference to a high turnout which was close to 70%, showing all sides wanted to get their vultures out but it has not affected but the opinion polls were telling us before this election which were all pointing to a far right victory. let's mull over what this means for france and beyond with my guest who join us here. this means for france and beyond with my guest whojoin us here. a journalist specialising in world affairs and also a journalist and political analyst. affairs and also a journalist and politicalanalyst. let affairs and also a journalist and political analyst. let me start with you, we are in your view does this leave france and president macron tonight? for

8:12 pm
and he has warned that any vote could lead to civil war. how can he rollback on that and say to my supporters, go and support the left? it is quite ironic for somebody who asked for clarity that his comments are not that clear. he is going to leave the country in that state of an decisive and yet breathtaking suspense. what we have now, what is at stake, is who gets to 289. this is the only thing that matters. and what you are going to see now is who actually is ready to withdraw because in some constituencies you will have a three—way second round. the left has already said they will pull out of any race in which they came third leaving the other candidates to actually come what we called the republican farage. if president macron does not say the same thing, if he has a snap
8:13 pm

8:14 pm
live shot of the french prime minister gabrielle et al. was —— gabriel attal. now it's time to look at the sports. that was tense. think some of my colleagues in the office need a lie down after that one because england are through to the last eight of the european championship — but they did it in the most dramatic fashion. they trailed slovakia from the 25th minute thanks to ivan schranz�*s cute finish and england toiled and toiled for most of the game until a stunning overhead kick from jude bellingham in the fifth minute of stoppage time sent the game into extra time. that was barely a minute old when harry kane headed england into a last eight meeting with switzerland. in cologne, spain are taking on georgia. 14 ia minutes on the clock in that one. spain have done most of the attacking as you might expect so far. but still no goals. you can follow live text commentary
8:15 pm
of that over on the bbc sport website and app. to formula one and it was a largely processional austrian grand prix but a late collision involving max verstappen and lando norris gifted george russell a surprise victory. verstappen and norris came together with just seven laps remaining as they duelled for the lead. the damage forcing norris to retire, whilst verstappen dropped down to fifth. it enabled mercedes driver russell to take just his second career victory, ahead of carlos sainz and oscar piastri. verstappen's championship lead is up to 81 points. wimbledon gets under way in less than 2a hours' time but will the two—time champion andy murray be playing? he says he'll make a decision on monday, having undergone a minor back operation just under a week ago. he admits he doesn't have 100% feeling in his legs following the surgery to remove a cyst from his spine. murray will train again on monday before deciding if he's fit enough to play his scheduled first round singles match on tuesday. i'm going to play a set again tomorrow, i'm going to do some
8:16 pm
physical testing in the morning before that just to see where my movement is. and then, you know, i should probably be able to make a decision, you know, tomorrow or tomorrow afternoon, evening. but everyday it has been getting better and better, ijust don't know whether it's enough time. one man who has no doubts over his fitness is the defending men's champion carlos alcaraz — the spaniard returned to play on centre court at the end of last week after this success there last year. he'll face mark lajal of estonia on monday. stepping on the centre quite once again makes me feel the nerves again. it was great. 0bviously again makes me feel the nerves again. it was great. obviously i am more relaxed than the final last year and all the matches i played last year, but i was a little bit nervous today as well. the top seed in the women's draw — iga swiatek — hasn't actually played any grass court tournaments in the lead up to wimbledon.
8:17 pm
the french open champions has never made it past the quarters at the all england club — is well aware of the challenges of this surface. i need to take a break after this clay—court season because it will be impossible for me to manage the rest of the season to november, basically, properly, so i came here early to practice on the same grass i am going to play matches act and it was a smart move this year, but every year we will plan it a little bit differently. pre—race favourite tadej pogacar is the new leader of the tour de france after pulling ahead of most of his main rivals on stage 2. the race is actually in italy right now with kevin vauquelin taking the biggest win of his career. but pogacar finished ahead of most of his main rivals to take the yellow jersey. he's bidding for an unusual double — having already won the giro d'italia this year. and that's all the sport for now. we will be catching up with a england fan and his family shortly
8:18 pm
but now we will catch up with some of the uk politics because we are in the final stretch ahead of uk voters going to the polls on thursday. this morning rishi sunak strongly defended the conservatives' record in government as the election campaign enters the last few days. he told the bbc the uk was a better place to live in now than it was when the tories took office in 2010. he accused labour of planning to put up taxes. labour says all the party's plans are fully costed. here's our political correspondent, leila nathoo. no, no, no, no, no. i've got to pay for this. only a few more days of encounters like this. rishi sunak visiting a bakery in north london this afternoon. have you had a nice weekend? with the election now around the corner, today, he maintained he would still be prime minister on friday and defended his party's record when challenged over whether the country was better now than when the conservatives took charge. we had a once—in—a—century pandemic, followed by a war in ukraine that drove up everyone's bills. and of course that's been difficult for everybody. but we've also made progress in tackling those things.
8:19 pm
inflation back to normal, the economy growing again, wages rising, energy bills set to fall again just next week. and now we're able to start cutting people's taxes to give them financial security. labour took a break from big campaign events today, but a mindful of the fact they need their huge lead in the polls to actually translate into votes. i'm proud of the campaign that we've run. i think we've put forward real and meaningful change and done it with an eye on responsibility because of the legacy that we're going to get after ia years of the tories. but change will only come if people vote for it on thursday. winning back seats in scotland is one of labour's tasks next week. the snp accused both main parties of not being honest with voters about what lies ahead. there is that conspiracy of silence, there is £18 billion worth of public sector cuts, which are agreed by both the labour party and the conservative party. that's the choice that they are making at this election. we, of course, oppose that. we believe that there should be investment in our public services,
8:20 pm
investment in our nhs, and we need to get away from this race to the bottom on austerity that exists in westminster. the liberal democrat leader, sir ed davey, is ending his campaign as it began — with stunts that make a splash — so he gets the chance to talk about what his party's mps would argue for if more of them are returned to parliament. that would be a fair deal on the nhs and care. it would be a fair deal on cost of living, it'll be a fair deal on the environment and many other issues. so that manifesto, if people vote liberal democrat, will be our marching orders to deal with any government and any bill and any policy that comes forward. at a reform uk rally in birmingham, its leader, nigel farage, batted away concerns about what he described as a "few bad apples" in and around his party. he thinks the election result is already decided, and insists reform will have a role to play. for democracy to function, - there has to be a concerted voice of opposition, challenge. the conservatives can't do that. because they'll be in opposition,
8:21 pm
but not the opposition, - because they're so divided. but also the point about reform uk is it's not just about a voice - in parliament, it's a voice in the country. _ the time for party pitches nearly over, as the moment to decide approaches. we have a dedicated site on our website with lots of election news and analysis. we are going to go back to the euros because england came within a minute of being knocked out. they did beat slovakia 2-1 knocked out. they did beat slovakia 2—i and they are through to the next stage of the euros but my goodness, it was tense. i have been on every time england have played and every time england have played and every time i have spoken to stephen wall and his wonderfulfamily. to time i have spoken to stephen wall and his wonderful family. to say they are england fans is a bit of an understatement. theyjoin us with

much for inviting us into _ it is coming home! thank you so, so much for inviting us into your- it is coming home! thank you so, so much for inviting us into your home | much for inviting us into your home in birmingham. fantastic stuff. we will see them on saturday, from me and the team, thank you for watching bbc news. hello there. it was a little bit cooler today than what we had yesterday for many areas, particularly across the south, and that sets the scene for this upcoming week. we'll continue with low pressure, always fairly close by. it's going to remain quite changeable. areas, and it will remain cool for the time of year, with no significant heat or sunshine on the horizon for now. so we're under a ridge of high pressure, which will mostly kill out any of the showers for the first part of tonight. we'll see lengthy clear spells actually develop, but out west, the next weather fronts will be moving in, bringing thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain. northern ireland, and certainly to western scotland. so temperatures double figures here, but under the clear skies we'll see some single digits to begin monday morning. that weather front crosses the country.
8:27 pm
then during the course of monday. i think most of the rain will be across central and northern areas. but before the rain arrives, we should see some sunshine in central, southern and eastern parts of the country before skies cloud over and we'll see that rain splashing its way in from the west, barely anything on it. as it reaches the east and southeast of england, bar the odd spit and spot of rain. in any brightness, we could see up to 21 degrees. otherwise, for most disappointing temperatures for the time of year with all the clouds. so monday, the first day of wimbledon, it looks like it should stay mainly dry on monday. top temperatures 21 degrees. i think a better chance of seeing dry weather, perhaps with more in the way of sunny spells, for tuesday. so for monday night, we see that rain clear away from the east of the country again. clearer skies under that ridge of high pressure with temperatures dipping into single digits where we have cloud then double figures. but we look to the west to more rain pushing in around this area of high pressure, but generally because it's a ridge of high pressure, it should be a mostly dry day for most of the country. on tuesday, we'll start off
8:28 pm
with quite a bit of sunshine around for england and wales, cloud will tend to build up through the afternoon. most of the rain i mention will be across western scotland, perhaps northern ireland, maybe some spots for northwest england, but the majority of the south of the country should be dry. again, these sorts of values are below the seasonal average — ia—2i degrees. but we're looking at the high teens for most places and the outlook for the rest of the working week into the start of the weekend is for remaining mostly unsettled. most of the rain will be across northern and western areas. take care.
