welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore, i'm steven lai. the headlines. the us supreme court rules donald trump is partially immune from prosecution for actions taken while in the white house — the former president says it's a good day for democracy. it's the final week of uk election campaigning, and rishi sunak tells the bbc it's not over until it's over hurricane beryl threatens the caribbean islands — it strengthens to category four — and hits grenada. and as the wimbledon championship gets under way, we speak to some of the campers trying to secure tickets.

the us supreme court has ruled that donald trump has some immunity from prosecution for offical actions taken while he was in the white house. a lower court will now decide how to apply this ruling to criminal indictments he faces, and which of his actions qualify as official — and that will be delayed well beyond november's election. the former president described the decision as a �*big win.�* our north america editor sarah smith reports. the powerful supreme court has the final say on what presidents can and cannot do. today's historic ruling means a president can never be prosecuted for anything that's part of their official duties. but they do not have immunity for non—official acts. so what does this mean for the criminal cases against donald trump? fight for trump! when he spoke to supporters onjanuary 6th, was he officially acting as the president, or as the losing candidate? we fight like hell. and if you don't fight

like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore. donald trump is facing criminal charges related to the january 6th riot and attempting to overturn the election results. hang mike pence! as his supporters stormed the capitol building, they chanted, "hang mike pence!" angry with the vice president because he refused to block the certification ofjoe biden as president. mr pence had to be evacuated from his office. donald trump cannot now be prosecuted for all the conversations in which he had been pressuring mike pence to overturn the election results. the supreme court did not say whether all the charges donald trump is facing are covered by presidential immunity, so it's going to have to be argued out in a lower court. which of his actions were official presidential acts and have immunity, and which were not, meaning he can still be prosecuted for them? trump is also facing charges in the state of georgia for trying to overturn the election result there. he phoned a local official and asked him to find more votes. so look, all i want

to do is this. ijust want to find, uh, 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. a court will have to rule on whether he was acting as president or not when he made that call. justice sonia sotomayor, a more liberaljudge, completely disagrees with the ruling, saying "in every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law. if he orders the navy seal team six to assassinate a political rival, immune. organises a military coup to hold on to power, immune." until now, every president who has served in the united states has understood that he could be prosecuted if he engaged in criminal conduct while president. going forward, presidents know they're free. the most immediate effect of this ruling will be to further delay the three court cases mr trump is still facing, making it all but certain they will not come to court before

november's election. sarah smith there. here's daniel lippman, a reporterfor politico covering the white house and washington , with the significance of the court's ruling. well, i think this is a very significant ruling in that it gives future american presidents a lot more power, where they don't have to worry that they could get charged for any criminal conduct they commit on the job. and so this is going to be, i will say, it's pretty rare that a president does something like trump. you only see this every a0 years or so, 50 to 60 years, maybe with richard nixon. but it does seem that there is kind of this, uh, judicial system that is constantly getting thrown at different candidates. trump himself has said he wants to jailjoe biden for hisjob. and so this makes it harder for him to do that as well. well, justice sonia sotomayor,

who we heard just now, our correspondent talking about, said the president is now king above the law with this ruling, what sort of actions could this open the door to? well, i would say investigating political opponents using irs audits, uh, punishing, uh, political opponents, uh, as well in terms of, uh, other investigations or, uh, you know, prosecutions. but i will say that, uh, you know, i don't think a president is going to order an assassination of a political rival and get away with it. that is a far—fetched, uh, scenario. uh, and also, congress still has the power to impeach and remove a president. and so, if he or she does something in office, then congress can be a check on that president's power. uh, often, uh, the congress would have to be of a different party to do that. uh, look at how trump, he survived two impeachments and so he can still run because he was not convicted by the senate.

and what kind of impact might this have on the election campaign in the run up to november? well, trump isjust having a great streak of victories in terms of he won the debate last week. there's a lot of infighting in the democratic party now. and he can go to voters and say, hey, he's beating every court case he is facing, except, of course, in new york. but a lot of democrats and people in the washington establishment thought that trump would be stopped with these four court cases, but he's only gained popularity since he started these trials. the trump ally, steve bannon, has reported to prison to begin his four month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena. bannon refused to give evidence before the committee investigating the storming of the us capitol building in january 2021. he was convicted the following year but has stayed out ofjail while appealing the judgment. with just a few days of campaining left, rishi sunak has denied that he's given up on winning the election saying

"it is not over till it's over", despite talking about the prospect of a labour "super—majority." he's been speaking to our political editor chris mason. today and tomorrow, i'm following the two men who want to be your prime minister this weekend, and for the next five years. i'll be talking to labour's keir starmer tomorrow. here we go, last few days. first stop, stoke on trent. it's rishi sunak today, as both men embark on a masochistic hurtle around the uk before polling day. so on to the battle bus for the first visit. welcome to the bus. thank you. this, a business that distributes medicines. the production line of campaigning has a similar regularity too. visits like this are a chance to make his pitch to workers in a relatively controlled environment.

here we go. here it comes. and take a listen to rishi sunak�*s tone and emphasis. to vote for the conservatives is notjust a vote to stop a super majority, but it's also a vote to make sure that we will fight for you. i will fight for you. i will make sure that your voice is heard, right? that is what this is about. and crucially, i will keep cutting your taxes. prime minister, listening to you, talking to the workers just now, it sounded like you'd given up. no, absolutely not. i'm talking to as many people as i can across the country. talking about a super majority? yeah, what i was saying to people is i don't want anyone to sleepwalk into thursday, because there is a danger of a labour government that i want people to be alive to. and the choice for everyone on thursday is a vote for the conservatives, which will mean their taxes continue to get cut. we will get migration down and secure our borders. pensions will be protected.

a vote for anyone else is just going to get the precise opposite of those things. you and your campaign have talked in the last few days about the irreversible damage that a labour government could do, and do very quickly, in power, and there'll be many people who might share that fear. but if you believe that, why did you call the election six months earlier than you needed to? you could have governed as a conservative prime ministerfor another six months before this moment. i think people deserve a choice. and my priority when i became prime minister was to deliver economic stability, and we have done that. inflation is down from 11% back to normal. wages are rising, the economy is growing faster than our competitors, and taxes are starting to be cut. this is the week where all the leaders returned to their big pitch. here's sir keir starmer, miles ahead in the opinion polls, in hitchin in hertfordshire. and look, the sun is just about shining. this is the summer, and we have one job which is to make this a summer of change.

but perhaps rishi sunak can take inspiration from the last minute heroics of the england team last night. is there a rishi sunak equivalent of thejude bellingham overhead kick that we're going to see in the next 48 to 72 hours to radically change what looks like the scoreline could be? mine is probably more a kind of flashy, you know, i don't know, cover drive or off drive or something instead! and talking of cricketing shots, rishi sunak came next to nuneaton in warwickshire to show off a few of them in the nets. the israeli army has issued a new evacuation order for parts of khan yunis and rafah in southern gaza, causing many palestinians to flee. the israeli army says the orders were made after rockets were fired from the khan yunis region but there were no casualties. residents of several neighbourhoods in eastern khan younis said they had received audio messages from

israeli phone numbers ordering them to leave their homes. people in khan younis expressed their anger over being displaced again. translation: they - announced that we should evacuate out of the eastern parts of khan yunis. where should we go? tell us where to go. when we were displaced from rafah, we had to spend two weeks out in the open. translation: we seek peace, not war. - enough is enough. we are slowly dying. this is unfair. what is our fault? we are innocent civilians. a dangerous category four storm is moving through the caribbean, with wind speeds of more than 200 kilometres an hour. power is down across the island of grenada as hurricane beryl sweeps through. reports from the tiny island of carria—cou, which is part of grenada, say it's being flattened by the storm. there are also storm surges in the sea and leaders of nearby islands have all issued hurricane warnings. the prime minister of st vincent said he was expecting a natural disaster that could continue for days. it's already passed through barbados, leaving

a trail of damage. beryl is the most powerful hurricane ever recorded injune — and of a strength not normally seen until much later in the season. take a look at the map of its predicted path. a true landfall — with the eye passing over a coast — may not occur, but even so, beryl will unleash a devastating blow to the nearest islands. will grant is monitoring ths storm from mexico city. well, we're hearing that particularly some smaller islands are off grenada have been essentially cut off, communications down to carriacou and to a place called petite martinique. so both of those are essentially incommunicado at the moment. so the authorities don't know just how bad things are. and being small islands off an island nation, one can imagine that it's very low—lying and will have received the full brunt of the storm as it passed over. i mean, in essence, that lack of communication is becoming a real difficulty as the hurricane makes its way through the caribbean.

i've been in contact with a reporter in saint vincent and the grenadines, and he can't now currently get word out very easily either. so things are difficult, as you can imagine. it always takes a little time when large or major hurricanes pass through the caribbean to get a full snapshot ofjust how bad the devastation is, where the worst devastation has been wrought. and i think we're in that point now, just trying to kind of assess what the damage is and wait for updates from the authorities themselves. guy vital—herne is from world vision and is in haiti — i asked him how he and his team are preparing themselves for the coming storm. right now, world vision is pre—positioning. we are pre—positioning some itemsjust in case, um, the hurricane actually, uh, strikes some communities in haiti. all the predictions say that it will not have a direct impact, but we are pre—positioning — also informing communities

of the upcoming storm, uh, so that they also can make some preparations. and in the last few years, haiti has been hit by several natural disasters, political unrest as well. how vulnerable is the state of the country? 0h, very, very vulnerable. now, we're talking since 2010, it's been, uh, um, disaster after disaster. after the 2010 hurricane matthew, uh, it was a category four, um, uh, hurricane, uh, went straight through the southern hemisphere. in the southern hemisphere. and lately, it's all the political and, uh, gang violence in haiti that have devastated communities, families, and particularly children in haiti.

so, uh, as of right now, we are uh, haiti is definitely not ready, uh, for, uh, something like that, even as they predict heavy rains that could cause flooding, landslides. and in the past we've seen those rains causing also roads being flooded, uh, diminishing logistical capacities, uh, and even, uh, collapsed, uh, bridges. so it would be very catastrophic for haiti, um, to be, uh, highly impacted by, uh, by beryl right now. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news.

a day after the far—right national rally came top in the first round of french parliamentary elections, president macron isjoining together with political opponents to try to block them from forming a majority government. a number of centrist and left—wing candidates who came

third in their constituencies yesterday, have already pulled out of sunday's second round, in an attempt to avoid splitting the vote, and handing an easy win to rn. andrew harding has the story. paris, the day after. and for many here, a profound sense of shock. "it's like having a hangover," says sandrine, a legal assistant of yesterday's election results. "people are fed up with politics," says caroline, "so they're turning to the extremes." "it's the people's choice," says margarita. "and given the high turnout, we'll get the government we deserve." they're all talking about this woman, marine le pen, whose party, the national rally, took the lead in sunday's vote. if the surname is familiar, that's because her father, jean—marie le pen, was a notorious far right politician, a racist and anti—semite.

but his daughter has softened the national rally�*s image and platform, and last night won big across the nation. her party's populist, anti—immigrant, eurosceptic message and its 28—year—old candidate for the prime minister's job, finding broad appeal. formerly, it was more people that were workers in complicated economic situations. now you have also white collars voting for national rally. you have women voting for national rally, you have young people. meanwhile, france's president is in trouble. no wonder it looked like emmanuel macron was trying to hide yesterday. his election gamble has backfired. his centrist party on track to lose heavily. so what of plans to block the far right from sweeping to victory? this afternoon, different parties began arriving at parliament, aiming to forge a united front against the national rally.

but the divisions are all too evident. the leader of the green party here brought to tears of frustration during this debate. france is still digesting the shock of yesterday's election result. love it or loathe it, the national rally is now at the heart of france's political mainstream. more than that, it is the most powerful party across the country. but can it translate that into enough seats in parliament to win outright? if it can, france will be changed utterly. andrew harding, bbc news, paris. and now taking a step back — why did macron call an election that has weakened his standing? pierre mourier — a researcher on right wing politics at the university of lyon — gives us his thoughts. he placed a very dangerous bet. he bet that in three weeks, the left would not

have the time to organize themselves, that he would have time to expose the platform of the national rally in less than three weeks, and then to appear as the savior of france and get the full majority in the parliament, but he failed. yesterday, some close advisors to the president actually called him nero watching rome burn. he completely failed in the open, and he paved the way to a far right government next week. let's take a look at some other stories in the headlines. at least nine people were killed and four others injured when a car ploughed into a crowd of people in the south korean capital seoul. a man believed to be in his 60s drove the vehicle into pedestrians waiting at a traffic stop. police say they are investigating the incident. a panel of un experts has determined that the detention of former pakistani prime minister, imran khan, is in violation of international law, and has called for his immediate release.

since his removal as prime minister in april 2022, khan has been entangled in more than 200 legal cases and imprisoned since august last year. a space rocket owned by a private chinese company has accidentally launched itself during a test, before crash landing into a hillside. footage on social media shows the rocket falling back to earth and exploding in china's henan province on sunday. the company responsible for the rocket said a "structural failure" caused the rocket to take off. australia has introduced some of the toughest measures in the world around vaping. it is now illegal to supply, manufacture or import a vape, or sell one, other than in a pharmacy. the restrictions apply to all e—cigarettes, whether they have nicotine or not. until october, those purchasing a vape will require a prescription; after that, customers older than 18 will be allowed to buy vapes after having a conversation with their pharmacist.

our australia correspondent katy watson is in sydney. prime minister albanese had hoped that this would be a world first when it came to vaping laws, but opposition from the green party meant that it got watered down at the last minute. so what it means is, as of today, monday, anybody who wants to have access to a vape will have to go to a pharmacy and will need a prescription. but come october, you will be able to go into a pharmacy, have a discussion with a pharmacist and under the counter they will be able to give you a vape. under—18s, though, will always need a prescription. of course, this this new law is hoping to bring down the number of people vaping, especially among young australians. data shows that, since the pandemic, consumption has really, really soared. australia is no stranger to tough anti—smoking legislation. they have already banned the imports of vapes. they've also limited the number of flavours available. in 2012, australia did pass

legislation to bring in plain packaging on cigarettes to make them less appealing when it came to marketing. there is some concern, though. pharmacists are concerned that they will become a dumping ground, if you like, for vapes. of course, those selling vapes in retail spaces, petrol stations, those people will be out of a job as of monday. there is also a concern about the tough legislation, what that means for consumption of cigarettes. will this tough legislation mean a switch back to cigarettes, which of course defeats the object? but that's something we'll only really understand in the coming months once that legislation beds in. let's move on to tennis now — and the wimbledon championships got under way on monday. the defending men's champion, carlos alcaraz, won against mark lighal. whilst in the women's draw, naomi osaka made a winning return on her first appearance at wimbledon for five years, and britain's emma raducanu beat renata zarazua of mexico in straight sets

on centre court. well, wimbledon isn't just about the tennis — it's also about the fans right around the world. and some of the most dedicated camp overnight in the hope of securing tickets available on the day. the bbc�*s mike bushell joined them. hi, is this the right place for the queue? hi, mike, welcome to the queue. just head around that corner over there and you'll meet the already thousand people queueing. a thousand ?! yeah, just over. there's the tent, the tent, that has to be erected. and here's my neighbours. hello! from scotland. oh, look at that. and there, of course, what we're hoping to see, andy murray on tuesday. so that's what you are waiting for, that's what you are here? yeah. well, i hope i don't snore. so doi! cheering.

looks a bit dodgy. i've made loads of friends tonight. so, what's your name? natalie. where are you camped? what number are you? so, i'm number23. so, right down there. so, you're going on centre court? yeah, we arrived at five o'clock this morning. amazing! finally, the tent is fixed! i'm in bed, the tent�*s stayed up. it's what, half ten? but everyone's so friendly. so, you go to bed really happy that you're part of a sporting event in itself. so, goodnight all. yeah, andy murray is expected to make a final decision on to state whether he is fit enough to play in the singles, his first match is scheduled at 630 bst against a check up on it. keep it here on bbc news.

goodbye for now. hello there. not much change to the weather as we move into tuesday. in fact, the upcoming week will remain pretty unsettled, i think, with low pressure always nearby. it will be breezy, even turning windier across northern areas by the end of the week. some rain at times, mainly in the north and the west, and it will remain on the cool side for earlyjuly. this ridge of high pressure, though, bringing quite a bit of dry weather, i think, on tuesday. we'll start off with quite a bit of sunshine around in northern, central and western areas. more cloud for eastern england, a few spots of rain — that rain will tend to ease down. and then as we head into the afternoon, skies will turn cloudy again as the temperatures rise a little bit, and we'll see some patchy rain pushing into western scotland, mainly through the afternoon. again, disappointing temperatures, 13 to maybe 19 or 20 degrees across the south. so i think it should stay mostly dry for wimbledon on tuesday — temperatures around 20 degrees — but with low pressure moving in on wednesday, i think there's a greater

chance of seeing some disruption to play with temperatures also at around 18 degrees. so as you move out of tuesday into tuesday night, we start to see this low pressure system moving in, bringing thicker cloud, outbreaks of rain, and stronger winds. i think the far southeast will stay dry until we reach the morning period, but because of the cloud, the rain, and south—westerly winds, i think it'll be a slightly milder night for all. so wednesday, we have this area of low pressure and its weather front crossing the country. it'll be a breezy day for most and a cloudy one. i think cloudy from the word go, outbreaks of rain splashing their way from west to east. i think it stays quite wet across northern and western scotland through the day. we could see something a little bit drier, perhaps, into the afternoon across eastern areas, maybe skies brightening up out west, certainly for northern ireland, but a breezy, even blustery day to come for all areas — these are mean wind speeds. temperatures disappointing for earlyjuly at 12 to 17 or 18 degrees across the south.

so that's wednesday out. as we move through thursday, this area of low pressure will bring even stronger northwesterly winds to the country, most of the rain across the north. and then for friday into the start of the weekend, could see another area of low pressure hurtling across the uk to bring another spell of wet and windy weather. so yes, an unsettled outlook for the end of the week. most of the rain in the north and the west. there will be a little bit of sunshine at times in the south and the east.
