lucy letby didn't come to this retrial as an unknown prospect. that would have been impossible. retrial as an unknown prospect. instead, the jury was told to take her status as a multiple murderer and attempted murderer into account as part of the evidence. last year, letby was convicted of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder another six. the jury couldn't decide whether she'd also tried to kill a premature girl known as baby k in february 2016. the charge was put before a newjury at retrial, and they have convicted her unanimously. the police gave this reaction on behalf of the baby's parents. we have had to go through a long, torturous and emotionaljourney twice, but this justice will not take away the extreme hurt, anger, and distress that we've all had to experience. it also does not provide us with an explanation as to why these crimes have taken place. this consultant, doctor ravi jayaram, caught letby virtually red—handed.

he could see that the baby was in trouble and the nurse was standing by her doing nothing to help. this is the tube that is then passed through the baby's throat and down into the lungs. this video was shown to the court to demonstrate how babies are given breathing support by ventilator. low pressure warning with no alert. lucy letby had dislodged baby k's throat tube and the monitor alarm was silenced. it's a technique that the prosecution expert at letby�*s first trial, doctor dewi evans, believes she used on further occasions, too. i reviewed a number of cases i other than the ones in this trial, and found a number of cases - where the tube, breathing tube, had been displaced, going back at least a year prior— to the first fatality. do you think that this was what she started doing as perhaps the easiest way of harming babies before moving on to other techniques? i think so. i think that she could

well have started off| by displacing breathing tubes. i think she then moved. on to injecting stomachs with lots of milk and air. letby�*s already serving 1a whole life terms, so the extra conviction won't increase her actualjail time. why have a retrial? i don't know what was going through the minds of the prosecutors in this case, but in previous cases where i've... where somebody has been convicted of a homicide and been given a significant sentence, it would take a lot for me to then retry them for something else that wouldn't necessarily add to their sentence. however, children being harmed, uh, you know, losing their lives in this case, i can understand why it was significant enough for them to say we will pursue this case. lucy letby told the court she wasn't guilty of the crimes she's been convicted of. she'll be sentenced on friday. judith moritz, bbc news, manchester.

donald trump's sentencing and this has many trial has been postponed until september. his legal team asked for his conviction to be overturned after the supreme court ruling yesterday that former presidents have partial immunity for official acts that took place during that time in office. sarah smith and al north american editor —— north america editor is in washington. is this the first impact of that supreme courtjudgment? supreme court “udgment? yes, and it shows ou supreme court “udgment? yes, and it shows you just — supreme courtjudgment? yes, and it shows you just how _ supreme courtjudgment? yes, and it shows you just how far _ supreme courtjudgment? yes, and it shows you just how far ranging - supreme courtjudgment? yes, and it shows you just how far ranging that i shows you just how far ranging that could be. we already knew that it was likely to impact the three criminal cases donald trump still faces and now we discover that the judge in the new york case is prepared to at least consider setting aside the guilty verdict there. the crimes donald trump was convicted of, covering up harsh money payments to slow me were not official presidential axe and not even donald trump is claiming they were covered by presidential immunity but what he is arguing is that some of the evidence the

prosecution relied on to make their case is covered by immunity, and that includes things like the testimony from his former white house communications director, some tweets that he set out as president and some phone records from his time at the white house. none of them should have been used in court, he said. and as a result, thejudge is going to look at this. sentencing was due to happen on the 11th of july, it has been postponed until september 18, and if as the judge says it is still necessary then, acknowledging that it is possible that donald trump could now manage to overturn that guilty verdict. sarah smith, thank you. letting prisoners out early in england and wales will probably need to continue under a labour government, sir keir starmer has said — due to what he called a "broken system". under a recently introduced policy, some less serious offenders can be released up to 70 days early, to tackle the ballooning prison population caused by tougher sentences and court backlogs. in the final days of campaigning, the labour leader has been talking

to our political editor chris mason. the man hoping to get his hands on power on friday, but if he is dreaming of downing street, there are other stopping off points first. train announcer: in a few moments, we will be arriving at beeston. after our day following rishi sunak yesterday, today we were with keir starmer. sir keir gets off in nottingham, and claims he has taken his party on a long walk back to credibility and competitiveness. and the polls suggest he is on the brink of victory. at nearby hucknall, at yet another football ground, a collection of labour activists, and his big pitch. we have been campaigning for a long time now. i have yet to meet a single person who has said to me, look, keir, everything's great. please don't change anything, it is fine as it is. people want change, but change will only happen if we vote for it. hello, i'm keir, welcome

to my tea and coffee shop! it turns out that the liberal democrats don't have a monopoly on splashes of campaigning absurdity. strong tea, so yeah,... two bags, myself... yeah. known to be called... and from what he says he has been called, to what he might be called soon. are you ready to be prime minister? we have worked for four and a half years to change the labour party. we have obviously done the preparation to make sure that on day one, we reset politics to a politics of service. i wanted to find out for you who might be running the country alongside him, if labour wins. but he reckons that saying that now could sound complacent. i am not accusing you of complacency. i would suggest to you that people deserve to know who your top team might be, if you were to win. well, i'm not going to go through a list of names, however hard you try. but i'm still after some specific answers. would you let prisoners out early, because the jails are full?

this is going to be a problem we will inherit if we are privileged to come in to serve. and i'm not going to sit here and pretend to you that i can build a prison on the first day of a labour government. so, that means letting people out early. in all likelihood, we will have to continue with that because it simply wouldn't be realistic. will people pay income tax on the state pension under labour? the position for pensioners in relation to tax will be exactly as it is now. that could mean yes, couldn't it? that is the position set out at the last budget. under this government. and that will remain the position. ladies and gentlemen, the prime minister. his rival, rishi sunak, has been in oxfordshire, with this warning about a labour government. don't sleepwalk into something that you haven't thought properly about. think very hard about what it means for you and your family, and in spite of what all of these polls say, every vote matters. i asked the same question of the prime minister yesterday. you must share a sort of sense

of solidarity with gareth southgate that you are doing a job where a million and one other people think they could do a betterjob than you. everybody in the stands and watching the television has got a better idea of how gareth southgate should do his job. there are some similarities. i've got no end of advice. i've had it forfour and half years, and no doubt i'll be getting a lot more. and he has more places to visit. via a trip to derbyshire, it was on from here to staffordshire. and chris mason is here with me. that is the labor leader. two senior tories have intervened in the campaign?— tories have intervened in the cam-cain? , ., campaign? yes, boris johnson, who we have not seen — campaign? yes, boris johnson, who we have not seen anything _ campaign? yes, boris johnson, who we have not seen anything from _ campaign? yes, boris johnson, who we have not seen anything from an - have not seen anything from an entire campaign save from the words that he writes every weekend in the mail, the conservatives have had a rally which you can see here in central london tonight. and there he is at the lectern, like back to the

one needs to read the writing on the wall, she is talking about the prospect as she sees it up conservative defeat, it is over, and we need to prepare for the reality and rotation of opposition. she says the conservative vote is evaporating from left and right, we are haemorrhaging votes, largely to reform uk. she says that their voters are crying out for inspiration. i wonder who she might be referring to. they want a country thatis be referring to. they want a country that is fighting for the best of our country that is celebrates our past and fights for the future, we need a searingly honest post match analysis. some can save lives here tonight will say that the match is still going on, the election is still going on, the election is still a couple of days away and it will conclude —— they will conclude that this is the start it, if not a direct pick from part for the leadership, then the argument that many conservatives deal is about to begin, if indeed they do lose on thursday. chris mason, our political editor, thank you.

a second reform uk candidate has suspended her campaign and defected to the conservatives. georgie david is running in west ham add pectin in london said the vast majority of the reform uk candidates were racist, misogynist and bigoted. a spokesman for the party said they strongly disagreed with her comments. and the full list of candidates standing in west ham and beckton is on your screen 110w. the lists for all the constituencies being contested are available on the bbc website. the liberal democrats have been back out in southwest england, where they hope to retake a clutch of seats. in another one of his signature campaign stunts, in taunton in somerset, leader sir ed davey used a giant orange domino to topple some blue ones to represent the so—called "blue wall" of tory seats he hopes to demolish in the southwest. in the west country, and across the home counties and rural britain, people know it's only the liberal democrats who can beat the conservatives.

so, yes, we had some fun with dominoes, but the serious point, if you want to get rid of the conservatives, in what could be a once in a century election, to change the political geography of our country, so that we do put social care and health at the top, we do deal with the sewage scandal, we get our economy back on track, the scottish nationalist party leaderjohn swinney has also been on the campaign trail in the hills of aviemore, rallying party activists. mr swinney claimed that although the election was effectively "over" in england, scottish candidates still have everything to play for. the people of scotland have got to decide whether they would like several mps who willjust do what they are told by keir starmer, or whether they want snp mps who will put the interests of scotland first, who will rail against austerity, and the spending cuts the labour party is going to carry on where the tories have left off. and if you want more on the election, then newsnight�*s where you should go, and here's victoria derbyshire.

we will take stock of boris johnson's last minute intervention tonight at a conservative rally. can it make a difference on the eve of the last full day of campaigning when millions of you are still undecided about how you're going to vote? who are the undecided, and what difference could they make to the result? we will have the details live on newsnight, on bbc two and on bbc iplayer at half past ten. see you then. at least 116 people have died in a crush at a religious event in northern india. thousands had gathered to hear a sermon by a religious preacher in a village in the district of hathras in the state of uttar pradesh. a large number of people are also being treated in hospital for their injuries, and there are fears the number of casualties might rise. the victims are still being identified. anbarasan ethirajan is in the city of aligarh for us now. terrible scenes, what more do we know? this is one of the health centres

where dozens of people have been admitted with injuries and also many of those killed, the dead bodies are being kept in the mortuary. along the corridor, dozens of relatives are still waiting for information, they want to know what happened to their loved ones. earlier in the day, tens of thousands of people had gathered in a village about 35 kilometres from here to hear a religious preacher, a hindu religious preacher, a hindu religious preacher, a hindu religious preacher, and the officials here say they have given permission for about 85,000 people but then more people had gathered around this village and then, no one knows exactly how this crash started, people say it was overcrowding and some say people were waiting to get the blessings of this preacher when the trampling happened at dozens of people have been killed. the local officials are saying that the casualty figure might go up. more than 108 women were killed, almost all of them were women who came to listen to this

preacher. this raises questions about health control and safety measures and this was not the first incident of this kind in india. we had previous incidents where hundreds of people have been killed in situations like this and it is also a reminderfor in situations like this and it is also a reminder for authorities in situations like this and it is also a reminderfor authorities here in the state of uttar pradesh to look into what really happened and how far they can improve safety standards they needs religious gatherings. anbarasan, thank you. the hungarian prime minister, viktor orban, has held talks with president zelensky on his first visit to ukraine since the russian invasion. hungary shares a border with ukraine, and this visit by europe's most pro—russia leader came just a day after hungary assumed the european union's rotating presidency. 0ur security correspondent, gordon corera, reports from kyiv. ukraine's leader is used to receiving high—profile visitors. but today was different. his guest — viktor orban — hungary's prime minister. inside there was, eventually,

another handshake but the smiles looked forced. orban has been a thorn in zelensky�*s side, his most high—profile critic within the european union. and one who's just assumed the rotating presidency of the european council for the next six months. this was orban's first visit to ukraine in 12 years, but over that time, he's met vladimir putin repeatedly, including becoming the first european leader to do so after russia's 2022 invasion of ukraine. and hungary has slowed down aid from europe going to support ukraine's fight back. when today's meeting finished, orban and zelensky did appear before the press, but they made statements and took no questions. translation: it's very important | that europe's support for ukraine | remains at a sufficient level — in particular, our defence against russian terror. but hungary's leader said he favoured moving towards a ceasefire.

translation: i asked the president to think| about whether we could speed up peace talks by making a ceasefire first and then start negotiations. i explored the possibility with him and i'm grateful for his honest answers. the challenge for ukraine is that out on the battlefield, russia has already taken around 20% of its territory and is still making slow but steady advances in some areas. the fear is that talk of a ceasefire may force it to give up hope of driving russia back. here in kyiv, they know there may come a time for negotiations, but ukraine wants that to be from a position of strength and not weakness, and they know for that to happen, they will need continued support from the west. and that includes from the european union, and for the next six months, that also means dealing with viktor orban. gordon corera, bbc news, kyiv. a deadly hurricane has torn

through the caribbean, devastating communities on the islands of grenada and st vincent and the grenadines. three people are reported to have died. hurricane beryl is the earliest category five storm — meaning the most intense — in history, and is bringing winds of around 150mph. it is expected to reach jamaica tomorrow and hit the mexican coastline by the end of the week. for many voters in this election, the nhs has been a key issue — and throughout the campaign, we've been following up on your questions to politicians in our series your voice, your vote. helen barkerfrom liverpool got in touch, and wanted to know what a new government would do to make nhs england's waiting lists shorter. 0ur health editor hugh pym went to meet her. helen has been on a waiting list for a kidney operation since last october. i just wish that it would get done. it'sjust emotionally and physically draining.

if people got the procedures they'd needed, that would benefit the nhs. it would benefit the economy. it would benefit society. why can't they see it? politicians should be explaining why these waiting lists are so bad. stop using the pandemic as an excuse. she's just one of more than 7.5 million people in england waiting for an appointment or operation. and it's the gps that are dealing with the consequences. we're seeing sick and more complex patients than we would have perhaps seen in the past. you know, because a condition is over time, you know, going to become worse, but it's also often going to become much more complex. whilst patients wait, so they're gradually worsening illnesses cause issues throughout the system. john, a radiographer, says repeat scans add to their workload. it can be really frustrating for a patient when they might have had a scan, been told they're ready

for their operation, for a year, 18 months later, to come back and say you have to have all these tests done again because they were — things have changed in your disease or that need to mean that the scans or tests need to be repeated, and thatjust adds even more to the backlog. and hugh pym joins me now. what do the main parties have to offer on this issue? we had seen how this very long waiting list in england affects different bits of the nhs, people like ellen and her question is, what will the next government do about it? looking at the manifesto is on the relevant issue, labour say they want to create 40,000 more appointments and operations in england each week, on top of 2 million or so now. they want to see a bigger role for high street opticians, getting them to do more checks and tests to take the

pressure on hospitals. the conservatives say they will be more community diagnostic centres, making it easierfor people community diagnostic centres, making it easier for people to get tests nearer to home and they want to see more efficient technology to speed up more efficient technology to speed up hospital processes. the liberal democrats say they have a ten year and investment plan for hospitals and investment plan for hospitals and they want to see more cancer nurses and investment in equipment. of course, health is a of course, health is a devolved issues and these are policies for england but spent spending decisions at westminster will have implications for the other uk nations. the main think tanks in this field, i should say, make the point these are reasonable starting points from each of the parties but they don't go nearly far enough to speu they don't go nearly far enough to spell out what will really be needed in terms of funding particularly to tackle all the long—term problems of facing the nhs. tackle all the long-term problems of facing the nhs-— the quarterfinal line—up at euro 2024 is now complete, with turkey and the netherlands booking their spot in the last eight. turkey beat austria, whilst the netherlands enjoyed a comfortable 3—0 win over romania. they'll meet on saturday — and whoever comes out on top will play the winner

of england and switzerland. now to wimbledon, where last year's women's champion marketa vondrusova has been knocked out of the tournament. but there was better news for five british players as they, and the seven time champion novak djokovic, made it through to the second round, asjo currie reports... he might be coming towards the end of his career but novak djokovic still looks in his prime. from the opening point... ..the seven—time champion seemed at ease against vit kopriva. oh, that is sensational! the strapping on his knee the only sign of the surgery he had less than a month ago, djokovic is known for being a rebel. he isn't the only one. but today on his best behaviour, this victory was a breeze. game, set, match djokovic! the 37—year—old is looking in ominous form. the last time the defending women's champion was knocked out in the opening round was 30 years ago. today, marketa vondrousova...

..took that unwanted title from steffi graf. but what if you had come to watch a british player today? fans have been forced to ask what is life like after murray? could his name be jack draper? it was a rocky start but jack draper looked to become at home on centre court. however his opponent, tenacious, kept going. with expectation comes pressure and draper was feeling it. but with his frustrations out of his system, he calmed, winning it in five. and familiarfaces waiting calmed, winning it in five. and familiar faces waiting for him next, his davis cup team—mate cameron norrie. seeded for the first time that would katie boulterfalter? it didn't start well but from 4—1 down, she fought her way back. this to seal victory. she fought her way back. this to sealvictory. next she fought her way back. this to seal victory. next up, she faces

harriet dart, britain's number one versus number two. an all england clash at the all england club. and a day to rememberforjacob fearnley, the scot playing in his first grand slam came through an almighty tie—break, winning match point at his sixth attempt. but if he thinks he is tired now, he should brace himself for round two, djokovic awaits. andy murray appears to have played his last singles match at wimbledon. the three times grand slam champion announced this morning that he was pulling out of today's scheduled match because of injury. but he says he's still aiming to play in the doubles with his brotherjamie. murray has won wimbledon twice, becoming the first british player to take the men's singles title for more than 70 years. our sports correspondent joe wilson has more. andy murray was supposed to be on centre. he was on the practice court, still working on his fitness, knowing it was too late. the man who went all the way, who brought us with him, the former wimbledon champion, will not play here

in the singles again. the waiting is over! there are a lot of emotions around the court. a lot of people obviously disappointed not to see you, and loads of people wishing you well. andy, i wonder what kind of mixture of emotions you're feeling about the decision today? i'm disappointed. i wanted to play in the tournament, and, you know, iwanted to have a chance to go out there and walk out on my own on the centre court again, and, yeah, give it another go. but i also was only going to do that if i felt like i could be, you know, competitive, and i didn't feel like that today. and, yeah, i am sorry for obviously everyone that, you know, came and wanted to support and watch again. you know, and i wanted that moment as well — as much for me as for, you know, the people that have supported me over the years. twice the wimbledon winner — that's the headline of andy murray's career. it's just part of the story. he's there! when you reflect on 45 plus titles on the tour, three grand slams, two olympic golds, the davis cup,

world number one, you know, he can look back and reflect on an incredible career. he's obviously been a great spokesperson for equality when it comes to men and women's sports, and also just the way he competes, and it's very sad to see him go. i hope that he can, you know, play his last match on his terms. there is more to come. of course in his heart, andy murray remains the ultimate competitor, and when he plays in the doubles later this week, with his brother jamie alongside him, well, he will believe he can win matches. the murray brothers won great britain the davis cup not so long ago. andy murray is still focused on this summer's olympics. he is the single presence who lifted millions of wimbledon dreams. for a perfect ending, just remember that. joe wilson, bbc news, wimbledon. time for a look at the weather.
