6:00 am
good morning from berlin, where it was heartbreak for england last night. for england, the interminable wait goes on. they were beaten 2—1 in the final of the european championship by spain. so what now for england manager gareth southgate after two now is not the time for me to speak about that. i need to talk to the right people and give myself a bit of time. the weather may lift the mood for some today, some brighter weather around after a bit of a misty star across the north. southern areas get ready, and heavy and at times thundery rain about a push in. i will have all the details on breakfast. it's monday 15th july. our main story. presidentjoe biden and donald trump
6:01 am
have called on americans to unite, after the former president was the target of a failed assassination attempt at the weekend. the fbi said the suspected gunman — 20—year—old thomas crooks — acted alone. mr trump has arrived in milwaukee for the republican national convention, as our north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports. little more than 2a hours after an attempt on his life, for donald trump the show must go on. he arrived in milwaukee, where he'll be confirmed as the presidential candidate for the republican party later this week. the bloodied and defiant images of him are likely to define an election that was already turbulent. for president biden — who is under huge scrutiny over his ability to run — took the moment to call on americans to settle their differences
6:02 am
by voting, not by violence. we can't allow this violence to be normalised. you know, the political record of this country has gotten very heated. it's time to cool it down. we all have a responsibility to do that. yes, we have deeply felt, strong disagreements. the stakes in this election are enormously high. as we pray, i want to thank god for protecting president trump, and sparing his life. at a local vigil, there were prayers and messages for the former president. people here are shocked by what's happened to donald trump. there are dozens of his supporters here. they were already going to vote for him, but now they're even more energised. look what we do — every time something happens, more money is raised. i saw our epic leader stand up in the face of terror, being injured and say, "fight! _ fight!" and we have got to fight now more than ever for our nation.
6:03 am
crooks. there is still so much unknown about the motives of the would—be assassin. 20—year—old thomas crooks from pennsylvania is now dead. 50—year—old corey comperatore was killed at the rally, after diving on his family to protect them. president biden says there will be an independent investigation into what happened. and as the republican national convention begins today, america's political rivals will now have to adjust to a totally changed presidential race. nomia iqbal, bbc news, wisconsin. as we've been hearing, the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks, who lived an hour's drive from the site of the rally in pennsylvania, in the town of bethel park — from where our correspondent tom bateman sent this report. this ordinary suburb of pennsylvania woke to news that one of their own tried to kill donald trump. 20—year—old thomas crooks lived
6:04 am
here with his parents, now being told their son was dead. the fbi and state police raided in the darkness, trying to work out what motivated him and whether he acted alone. how does it make you feel, knowing that...? he's on the street? yeah. how anybody else would feel. you know, as far as... i trust the neighbourhood, i trust the people. there's never been anything happening that brought the police down here. he rode my son's school bus. so what happened 7 tell me what you were told. they said that the state police came to the door and told us that we had to evacuate, that there was a state of emergency and they said there's a bomb on the street. the police haven't confirmed a report that explosives were found in the family home, but it's known that crooks followed a website about guns and detonations. the fbi is searching the house. they've been here through the night.
6:05 am
and a key question for them will be over any motive, and whether crooks�* politics played any role. records show that he was a registered republican, but he also gave $15 to a progressive or liberal campaign group on the dayjoe biden was sworn into office. in his high—school yearbook, crooks appears as a smiling teenager. one former classmate is baffled about what switched for this once diligent student. he was always getting good grades on tests, everything like that. he was very passionate about history. but it was nothing out of the ordinary. he was a nice kid and i had never had an experience with him where i was like, he isn't nice. he was always nice and i was always friendly to him. america's suburbs were always set to decide this coming election. now fearand angry division is deepening — not because of the ballot box, but the barrel of a gun. tom bateman, bbc news,
6:06 am
bethel park, pennsylvania. our correspondent nomia iqbal joins us now from milwaukee — where the republican party's convention is taking place this week. donald trump was always going to be the centre of attention, and even more so now and he is clearly determined to carry on with his plans there. determined to carry on with his plans there-— determined to carry on with his lans there. , , ., , ~ ., plans there. this is a big week for donald trump- — plans there. this is a big week for donald trump. the _ plans there. this is a big week for donald trump. the republican . donald trump. the republican national convention is essentially his show and there is lots of high—profile republicans in town and he will basically be confirmed, what we already suspect, the party's presidential candidate. but he has said in an interview to a newspaper in the us this evening that he plans for his big speech later this week to focus on unity rather than president biden's policies. unity is what president biden wants, as well, both men effectively returning to the campaign trail this week. but i think what will be hugely scrutinised as the tone with which
6:07 am
they campaign. i mean, the election has been so divisive, it was in 2020, as well, so if both men do want to take down the temperature, that will be hugely watched. another important point to make here is that the republican party is unified behind donald trump even more than ever before. i think there is a feeling by many of them that this assassination attempt on donald trump may lead to an uptake in support by the public, especially in a race that has been so static. in contrast, if you look at president biden, for the last few weeks there has been huge pressure on him by members of his own democratic party who are worried about his age, his fragility, following that presidential debates against donald trump, and many of them calling on him to stand down. but that political crisis has come to a standstill for now.—
6:08 am
political crisis has come to a standstill for now. the voting for the american — standstill for now. the voting for the american president - standstill for now. the voting for the american president doesn't i the american president doesn't happen for anotherfour the american president doesn't happen for another four months or so, but clearly this moment over the weekend is already shaping and determining the next stage of the campaign for both of these men. it really is. i mean, that's vigil that i attended in the report there, the supporters i met were even more galvanised than ever before. i think it's fair to say they were always going to vote for donald trump, donald trump supporters are incredibly ardent, they don't sit out elections, they do go to the polls, but this has made them even more determined and some were saying to me that they have met people who are not sure who to vote for who would now back donald trump because of those images that we have seen, those defiant images which have in some respects become iconic to many people. i think for president biden supporters, many of them, you know, will feel galvanised, too, perhaps. you know, worried that, have the
6:09 am
events of saturday led to that uptick in support for donald trump? we will have to see. as i say, the polls are so static it is really clear which, you know, who... who the voters essentially favoured to win the presidential election. but we are some time out and i can tell you, just even a day is very long in politics here in this country. nomia , thank you — politics here in this country. nomia . thank you very — politics here in this country. nomia , thank you very much _ politics here in this country. nomia , thank you very much indeed. - politics here in this country. nomia i , thank you very much indeed. nomia iqbal in milwaukee. how are you doing this morning? he sighs. it was heartbreak for england last night, as the three lions lost a second european championship final in succession. sally is in berlin, where tens of thousands of supporters travelled to watch the match, and will now be asking what's next for england. good morning. good morning. i good morning. i don't good morning. i don't know good morning. i don't know if good morning. i don't know if you good morning. i don't know if you i don't know if y| felt good morning. i don't know if you felt like this or if people felt like this at home. there was a
6:10 am
moment yesterday in the build—up to that game, and even during the game, when i think i thought, they could just do this. this mightjust happen. we are so used to england kind of grinding out results through this tournament, perhaps not playing so brilliantly, and then a bit of magic and then winning but, as you said, not to be. here we are in berlin, waking up this morning as the england team will be doing just that about a kilometre that way. we are on the banks of the river in the centre of the city. this time yesterday and through the day yesterday, this was filled with england fans who had travelled here to support their team in a great mood and, like me, like all of us here, feeling quite optimistic during the day yesterday. what a contrast, though, as we wake up to that news this morning, the reality hits that of course england were beaten 2—1 by spain, by you have to say a brilliant, great spain side last night, a spanish side who have played fantastic football through
6:11 am
this tournament and he quite simply deserved to win. crushing disappointment for the fans and players and we will talk about gareth southgate in a moment. there has even been a message from the king said the players can hold their heads high and be proud of their achievements throughout the tournament. so what happens now? here's our sports editor dan roan. yeah, they'll be hurting and there's no doubt about that. an all—too—familiar feeling. england inconsolable after becoming the first team in euros history to lose two consecutive finals. i know there'll be biter disappointment. i know there'll be bitter disappointment. the pain of defeat — and the regret at the chance that evaded them — obvious. for those that had dreamed of a first trophy for 58 years, the hurt goes on. it's always the hope that kills you, isn't it? it's the hope that kills you. we'll always hope. we've got young players coming through, i think the future's really positive — more so than it's been at any point, right? because these players have got now experience of two finals. so, yeah, i'm really, really
6:12 am
positive about the next few years. earlier, spain's young wingers had combined to devastating effect — teenager lamine yamal finding neco williams, who finished with aplomb. it's going to go over to williams now...! england were behind for a fourth match in a row, but resilience has been a theme of their campaign, and so it proved yet again. now saka with some space. substitute cole palmer's made an impact from the bench throughout this tournament. never quite like this. saka gets it through, and bellingham tries to tee up palmer...! oh, yes! england once again had stepped back from the brink, but with extra time looming, mikel oyarzabal broke their hearts. gone the other way first, oyarzabal. cucurella gets it back in...! oyarzabal scores for spain! england's first major final on foreign soil... ..had ended in defeat. for england, the interminable wait goes on. manager gareth southgate has revitalised this team,
6:13 am
but having failed to lead it to the title he craved, was this his last game in charge? now's not the time to, uh, for me to speak about that. um, i need to talk to the right people and, uh, give myself a bit of time. um, but it's, you know... yeah, to get to another final was a privilege, to have the opportunity. um, but, obviously, to come short is... yeah, hard. hard at the moment. so what do the fans think? possibly he could... we could do with somebody with a bit more forward thinking. i think he'll move on, but he's done a fantasticjob. get rid of southgate and start again. - new manager, different tactics. i don't think he's good enough as a manager, personally. - worthy winners spain crowned champions for a record fourth time. with a generation of highly talented young players, england will feel they can be a force at the next world cup in two years' time. but it will also be hard to recover, as another opportunity slipped by. as they prepare to leave germany,
6:14 am
a desolate england will reflect yet again on what might have been. their campaign here underlined the undoubted progress the team has made in recent years. but ultimately, it also serves to reinforce the sense that, against the very best sides, they're still not quite good enough. dan roan, bbc news, berlin. so, as everyone is waking up here in berlin this morning, including the england team not too far away, john, you have been in germany for the whole tournament, you have followed england every step of the way, and there have been so many twists and turns. but at this point this morning i guess the first thing we need to think is, what is next for england, and the webs from gareth southgate last night were quite interesting. i southgate last night were quite interesting-— southgate last night were quite interestinu. ~' ., , , interesting. i think inevitably we will all be talking _ interesting. i think inevitably we will all be talking about - interesting. i think inevitably we will all be talking about gareth l will all be talking about gareth southgate, possibly his future now, speaking after the match last night he said he needs to take some time before making a decision is
6:15 am
potentially on what he will do next. speaking with those closest to him but ultimately it has been a disappointing tournament. he said before it all got under way in germany that perhaps this could well be his last tournament, the last chance for him to win some silverware with england. i guess the way that england have gone out, the disappointment and perhaps some of the criticism that has come his way during this tournament, it wouldn't be any great surprise if perhaps he does choose to call an end to his eight year reign in charge of england. he eight year reign in charge of encland. ., eight year reign in charge of encland. ,., ., ., ~ eight year reign in charge of encland. ., ., ~ ,., england. he said he would take some time to reflect _ england. he said he would take some time to reflect which _ england. he said he would take some time to reflect which is _ england. he said he would take some time to reflect which is an _ time to reflect which is an interesting choice of words. we also heard from the england captain, harry kane last night, this is what he had to say and you can see the disappointment so clearly etched on his face. yeah, i mean, losing in a final is as tough as it gets, i think. we've done really well to get back into the game and get back to 1—1, and then we couldn't quite, um, use that momentum to push on. um, we couldn't quite keep the ball and then we got punished for it towards the end of the game. so, i mean, yeah, it's as painful
6:16 am
as it could be in a football match. so, the reflections of the england captain harry kane speaking immediately after the match last night. well, if the fans here were disappointed, the players hugely disappointed. i know across england fans who gathered in parks, at big screens, in pubs and bars, it really went through all of the emotions, the highs and lows of that match last night, as gel inward reports. ——joe inwood. it has been a roller coaster for england fans, from hope to desperation, to a final. andy and nish have been on thatjourney. i have my own, like, negativity about southgate, but honestly, i take it all back. he's the man for us, he's done the job and i think he's going to take us to bring it home. and so there we are, the final is under way. tell you what, i'm supposed to be objective, but i'm just too nervous! the first half was — to put it
6:17 am
diplomatically — uneventful. the second half surely will be better? rodri is off, their best player. andy, always the optimist, was hopeful for about eight seconds. how are you feeling? it's going to come home. fingers crossed. i take it back! not great. at that point, mid—interview, spain havejust scored. come on, then. we scored first last time and we lost. we can see this time we're going to win. come on! come on, england! come on! and he was partly right. a moment of i°y and he was partly right. a moment of joy shared around the country. ecstatic cheering.
6:18 am
things were looking up, and then for some reason i decided to interview andy again. and now i think, um... again! stop filming me! i hate you say it, you are.... it's done again. stop interviewing him! oh, no! no! i may well be the curse, but i'm also the hope. we are going to still win this! there's still five minutes on the clock. we've got extra time. come on, england! we're going to do this. we've got to do this! come on! please?! but it was not to be. spain were the better side. i hope you know it was all your fault. i know, i'm so sorry. every time you filmed me, they scored! have you got a mess...?
6:19 am
would you like to apologise to everyone? to the british public, i'm genuinely... i'm gutted. i apologise with all my heart. and, um, yeah. never, never, neverfilm me when england are playing in the final again, basically, is all i can say, yeah — sorry. it was, of course, not andy's fault. this has been a memorable tournament for england fans, and what it lacked in quality, it has more than made up for in emotion. joe inwood, bbc news, in brixton. all the lucky chimes in the world fabled last night. we tried a bit of everything. we fabled last night. we tried a bit of eve hina. ~ fabled last night. we tried a bit of everything.- didn't - fabled last night. we tried a bit of everything.- didn't work. i everything. we did. didn't work. thou~ht everything. we did. didn't work. thought it _ everything. we did. didn't work. thought it would _ everything. we did. didn't work. thought it would be _ everything. we did. didn't work. thought it would be our - everything. we did. didn't work. thought it would be our day - everything. we did. didn't work. thought it would be our day but| everything. we did. didn't work. | thought it would be our day but it wasn't. we thought it would be our day but it wasn't. ~ ., ., ., ~ ., ,, wasn't. we have to talk about spain and how brilliant _ wasn't. we have to talk about spain and how brilliant they _ wasn't. we have to talk about spain and how brilliant they were, - and how brilliant they were, fantastic team throughout the tournament and obviously very different scenes in spain. seems treat different scenes in spain. seems greatjubilation, _ different scenes in spain. seems greatjubilation, celebration, - greatjubilation, celebration, obviously we would have hoped that would be the scene back in england but when you compare the two teams,
6:20 am
spain really have been the standout team of this tournament so far. won all seven of their matches, didn't need penalties, that is a record. contrast that to england who it felt were relying on key interventions from key players at crucial moments, felt like england were riding their luck, spain didn't do that and they have brilliant players and have won this tournament for a fourth time and nobody has done that more. hot and nobody has done that more. not to net too and nobody has done that more. not to get too technical but spain appeared to play the same system through the tournament and they played assistant that those players seem to really thrive in. the? played assistant that those players seem to really thrive in.— seem to really thrive in. they did and they attacked _ seem to really thrive in. they did and they attacked and _ seem to really thrive in. they did and they attacked and went - seem to really thrive in. they did and they attacked and went out | seem to really thrive in. they did | and they attacked and went out to win matches, where is this feeling that england perhaps with two conservative.— conservative. little bit too defensive. _ conservative. little bit too defensive, perhaps. - conservative. little bit too defensive, perhaps. i'm i conservative. little bit too i defensive, perhaps. i'm sure conservative. little bit too - defensive, perhaps. i'm sure we will talk about that much more through the days and weeks. that is it, jon, back to you. thank you. we will speak to you later. lots more to come from sally

with jon kay. us presidentjoe biden has strongly condemned the attempted assassination of former president donald trump. in a televised address, he repeatedly stressed that it is time to lower the temperature of politics politics must never be a little battlefield, and god forbid, a killing field. i believe politics ought to be an arena for peaceful debate, to pursuejustice, to make decisions guided by the declaration of independence and our constitution. all of us now face a time of testing as the election approaches. and the higher the stakes, the more fervent the passions become. in america we resolve our differences at the ballot box. now that's how we do it, at the ballot box. not with bullets. the power to change america should always rest in the hands of the people. the president also sent well wishes

to mr trump, who was shot in the ear on saturday, when addressing a crowd in butler, pennsylvania at a campaign rally. this is one of the startling images to have emerged from that. you can see his face, lying on the ground flanked by members of the security services. 0n social media, donald trump said, "it is more important than ever that we stand united and show our true character as americans, remaining strong and determined, and not allowing evil to win." the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. authorities are yet to establish a motive for the shooting. crooks lived around an hour's drive from the site of the rally in pennsylvania, in the town of bethel park. 0ur analysis editor ros atkins has been working with the team at bbc verify to piece together videos, eyewitness testimony and satellite imagery.
6:33 am
how did the us secret service fail to stop this? gunfire. get down, get down, get down! the fbi says this was an attempted assassination, that it's surprising the attacker was able to open fire. bbc verify has examined videos, eyewitness testimony, and satellite imagery to build up a detailed picture of how that happened. on saturday night, donald trump was speaking at a campaign event in the city of butler, in pennsylvania. he took to the stage at 6.03pm. there were bleachers behind him, and secret service snipers on a roof. just over 100 metres away were these buildings — outside the rally venue. from the nearest, the gunman had a clear line of sight to the stage. this video shows the same buildings. it was filmed at 6.10pm — we know this because we can hear trump's speech in the background. the smaller building on the right is the one the gunman was on. in this video, we see a man talking to someone who appears to be a police officer —

they both look at the buildings. an eyewitness also told the bbc that while trump was speaking, they'd seen someone on the roof. we noticed a guy crawling — you know, bear—crawling up the roof of the building beside us. we're pointing at the guy crawling up the roof. and he had a gun, right? he had a rifle. a rifle. we could clearly see him with a rifle. and the police were like, "huh, what?" you know, like, they didn't know what was going on. the police haven't responded to this claim. there's also this video — filmed by a member of the public, and showing the gunman as he opens fire. at 6.11pm, there were three shots. trump raises his hand to his right ear and ducks. there were more shots. one person in the crowd was killed, two others were critically injured. this video shows an injured man being carried away. cross—referencing with other videos, we know this is in the bleacher to the right of the stage — that's consistent with the shot being fired from the roof towards trump. seconds after the shots were fired, in the words of the secret service,
6:35 am
snipers neutralised the shooter. this video shows a person motionless on the roof of the building. 0n the stage, secret service agents surrounded donald trump before moving him away. we have a clear picture of how this attempted assassination played out. the investigation will want to find out why the secret service didn't do more to prevent it. that is the investigative side of things. what about the impact on politics of what happened over the weekend? we're joined now from washington by political consultant frank luntz. good morning. thank you forjoining us. donald trump then has already arrived in milwaukee for the republican national convention, where he is expected to be made to the official candidate for the party. clearly he is determined to press ahead? hat party. clearly he is determined to press ahead?— press ahead? not only is he determined, _ press ahead? not only is he determined, i— press ahead? not only is he determined, i would - press ahead? not only is he determined, i would say - press ahead? not only is he j determined, i would say the press ahead? not only is he - determined, i would say the word defiant best describes what's happening right now. and the impact,
6:36 am
which i know you are going to get to come is going to be significant, but in a way that viewers may not expect. i don't think there is a single person who is going to change their mind about who to vote for because of this horrific accident. the impact comes in participation, it comes in passion, in intensity. every trumps of water will become a trump voter in november. —— every trump voter in november. —— every trump supporter. the us has had the lowest turnout in most democracies. not this time, at least not with the trump vote. the bagon camp is much less in gaze. ——joe biden. thejoe biden camp is almost... that turn a differential can result in a 1% or 2% gain in trump's margin. he is going to be every top candidate to

6:38 am
bleeding, and still attempting to make a statement, attempting to tell his supporters, fight, fight. i want to point out one thing that i hope you have the video tape for, which is that after donald trump had been put into the car, notice the crowds. several of them are extending their middle finger towards the tv cameras. several of them are screaming at the media. there is a level of anger that is even higher now than it was 72 hours ago, that it is something that americans have had to live with for the last few years, that thank god in the uk you have not experienced it. and that anger tells me that we still could have, which is whyjoe biden took to the airwaves tonight to speak to americans, that anger still exists. it is still right at the surface. we have got a very divided, polarised country, as we move into the

6:40 am
they be recognised. and a desire to be heard on election day more important. thank you for speaking to us here on bbc breakfast. we reset you staying up bbc breakfast. we reset you staying up late in washington. it’s a up late in washington. it's a privilege. — up late in washington. it's a privilege, thank _ up late in washington. it's a privilege, thank you. - privilege, thank you. we are also reflecting this morning on the football. england's wait for a first major men's trophy since 1966 goes on, but the players are continuing to inspire the next generation of footballers. this morning we are also looking to the future. the players we saw on the future. the players we saw on the pitch is still inspiring the next generation of footballers, regardless of the result. john maguire is at a school in ealing for us and he has a very special guest with him, notjust ones painted on walls and cut out of cardboard. good morning.— walls and cut out of cardboard. good morning. morning. you are absolutely _ good morning. morning. you are absolutely right _ good morning. morning. you are absolutely right when _ good morning. morning. you are absolutely right when you - good morning. morning. you are absolutely right when you talk i good morning. morning. you are i absolutely right when you talk about inspiring the next generation. still, this is such a very young generation, this england team at the

6:47 am
after, i won't call it a party, but after, i won't call it a party, but after a day of pre—emptive celebrations here last night for england fans and spain fans, who work out all along the banks of this river in the sunshine, having a great time. and for the very most part all in very good nature. the atmosphere going into the game last night i can tell you was great between the fans. really, really good—natured. but this morning as a clean—up here in berlin continues, we have to talk a little bit, don't about that fantastic team that the match last night? we have seen images from a crossing on the people watching the game. well, have a look now at what was going on on the streets of madrid is that final finish last night. mark lohan reports. final minutes that felt like hours. they thought it was all over. it was now. euphoria for the tournament's best team with an unbeaten run through the euros.
6:48 am
their young stars — 17—year—old lamine yamal, and neco williams — just 22 — now national heroes. # we'll keep on fighting... england's agony was spain's joy. the spectacular spaniards have done it again. they went into this match as the favourites, and how they have triumphed. many spaniards doubted this team at the start of the tournament. but how they have proven the doubters wrong! european champions for the fourth time. it means a lot, it means a lot. with this younger generation, i think is is changing everything so it's like — i don't know, feel very amazing. what does this mean to you? it means the world! just awesome! amazing, amazing! whooo! squealing.
6:49 am
the fiesta will go on for many nights to come. england dared to dream. for spain, it came true. mark lowen, bbc news, madrid. huge congratulations to spain. as mark was saying, the team of the tournament. played superbly and prayed —— played brilliantly last night. they know how to win a tournament, don't they? coming up in the next hour, we will have the thoughts of the players as they left the pitch last night. huge disappointment written all over their faces. disappointment written all over theirfaces. we disappointment written all over their faces. we will be hearing from harry kane and jude bellingham in the next hour with their immediate reaction after the final whistle. for now, that is it from me. sadly, thank you. spain might have won the euros, and they might have won the euros, and they might have won the euros, and they might have won the men's wimbledon final, but we are going to windy weather, surely, matt?
6:50 am

6:51 am
northwards, some isolated showers. a lot of dry and bright weather. the highest temperatures in the mid 20s. a big improvement in not wasting them. thundery rain around tonight in parts of east anglia, the midlands and wales. dry with mist and fog further north. a quick look at tuesday. some showers around, particularly across england and eastern scotland. some of those could be heavy and thundery. further west, drierand could be heavy and thundery. further west, drier and brighter, could be heavy and thundery. further west, drierand brighter, a could be heavy and thundery. further west, drier and brighter, a breeze blowing, but more sunshine developing through the day. more details through the programme. thank you. it is just after ten minutes to seven. hugh joins us with the rest of the sport! you guys are busy. there will be a bit of a theme with the rest of the sport. remember after the semifinal at wimbledon kallis alcaraz said, i am through to the final on sunday, i hope it is
6:52 am
going to be a great day for spain. the people at centre court twigged and said, hang on, that means spain beat england, and they started booing him! it became all rather jovial. it turned out to be for a car is alcaraz and spain every good day. —— kallis alcaraz. the euros may have come to an end with spanish success, and so too has wimbledon. sunday was the showpiece men's final between the reigning champion carlos alcaraz and the seven time champion novak djokovic. it was spain's alcaraz who, for the second year in a row, was crowned champion. the repeat of last year's final failed to live up to the five—set thriller of 12 months ago, as alcaraz powered to victory to retain his title. this performance was described by one bbc pundit as an annihilation. it's a dream for me, uh, winning this this trophy. uh, yeah. i think an interview when i was 12 or 11 years old, i said that my dream is to win, uh, wimbledon. uh, so i'm. yeah.
6:53 am
uh, i'm repeating, you know, my, uh, my dream. it's a great feeling to to play in this court, in this beautiful court, uh, to leave this amazing trophy. i'm going to say. or i said it before that, uh, for me, this the most beautiful tournament, the most beautiful court, and obviously the most beautiful trophy. also a little england against spain preview earlier in the day with a different outcome. alfie hewett finally winning the wheelchair singles title to complete a career grand slam. he had lost the last two singles finals, but beat spaniard le puente in straight sets to become the first player to win singles and doubles every ten is major, now 30 titles to his name. it felt like it was building each year, the expectation. more questions were being asked. it was the last one in my career grand slam to sort of take off. it felt like it
6:54 am
was always fitting that it had to be a wimbledon singles. what an occasion to do it on number one court with all my friends and the majority of my family and all the fans and the coverage it is sad, it's truly special. he called yesterday the best day of his wife —— life. not long after his first win, he got a second, as he teamed up with gordon reid to win the men's doubles titles. there was a thrilling finish to the scottish 0pen golf at the rennaissance club, and a scottish winner. going into the 18th hole scotland's bob macintyre was level on 17 under par with adam scott , and needed this birdie putt to take the title. macintyre is only the second scottish competition. we have had two things are ending but we have the open golf and evina pics to come.
6:55 am
so, settle in. any more spanish winners there? probably! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london, i'mjim wheble. well, it was a dramatic night of football to the say the least for fans across the capital — watching england lose the euros final. this was the moment the 15,000—strong crowd at the 02 celebrated, as england equalised with spain. similar scenes at pubs throughout london. but then spain scored again to win the euro championship in berlin. heartbreakforfans, but for the bars and pubs across the capital, the tournament has offered a welcome boost. we work in, like, a vibes economy. a tournament like this — especially when england do well — the mood is great. it's been incredible, it's been so much fun. we've been busy — booked out for all the games —
6:56 am
and we've almost sold completely out of beer. a second child has died after a house fire in east london on the weekend. the blaze broke out in a terraced house on napier road in east ham on saturday. two other children and two adults remain in hospital. police have said there is currently "no evidence to indicate suspicious circumstances". police will begin a final dig today to find the body of muriel mckay. mrs mckay was mistaken for the wife of rupert murdoch in 1969, and held hostage at a farm in hertfordshire. two men were convicted of her murder, but her body was never found. and swans on the rivers thames will start getting their annual health check today, as well as being counted. "swan upping", as it's called, is a ceremony dating back over a thousand years to make sure the monarch's swan population is maintained.
6:57 am
let's take a look at the tubes now. now onto the weather, with kate. good morning. it is going to be another week of rather changeable weather. for this morning there is a bit of sunshine, but the cloud will fairly quickly increase, and with that, some showery rain, turning heavier as we head through the day. the sunshine this morning burning back any mist patches. cloud increases, the showery rain arrives. there could be some lightning mixed in there this afternoon. temperatures today, 20 celsius, a little cooler than yesterday thanks to the rain and the cloud. these showers will continue through this evening. first part of the night, becoming a little drier. the cloud breaks, some clear spells through the early hours. the minimum temperature dropping down to 12 celsius. the cloud builds back in as we head into tuesday morning. we could see some further rainfirst thing. turning a little more showery through the day, with some dry spells, some breaks in the cloud, some brighter spells.
6:58 am
temperatures tomorrow will get to around 20 celsius. we have a ridge of high pressure which is building mid—week, bringing some slightly more settled conditions for wednesday, thursday and indeed into friday, potentially. but the temperature likely to get a little warmer. that's it, but if you're a bit of a fan of history, you can read on our website about hampton court — where they've opened some of their oldest rooms built for henry viii's right—hand man thomas wolsey. now back to jon. good morning, welcome to breakfast. 0ur headlines today. shots, screaming. after the failed assassination attempt on donald trump, us presidentjoe biden has told americans in a live tv address that violence is never the answer.
6:59 am
but in america, we resolve our differences at the battle box. you know, that's how we do it — at the battle box, not with bullets. the gunman who shot donald trump was killed by the secret service — and has been named as 20—year—old thomas crooks. good morning from berlin, where it was heartbreak for england last night. for england, the interminable wait goes on. they were beaten 2—1 in the final of the european championship by spain. so what now for england manager gareth southgate? so what now for england manager gareth southgate? now's not the time to, uh, for me to speak about that. um, i need to talk to the right people and, uh, give myself a bit of time. bit of sunshine to lift the mood today, with some mist around this morning but rain clouds gathering
7:00 am
across the south. could be quite thundery for some later. i will have all the details here on breakfast. it's monday 15th july. presidentjoe biden and donald trump have both called on americans to unite, after the former president was the target of a failed assassination attempt at the weekend. the fbi said the gunman, 20—year—old thomas crooks, acted alone. mr trump has now arrived in milwaukee for the republican national convention — where he's expected to be formally named as the party's candidate for president. from there, our correspondent nomia iqbal reports. little more than 2a hours after an attempt on his life, for donald trump the show must go on. he arrived in milwaukee, where he'll be confirmed as the presidential candidate for the republican party later this week. the bloodied and defiant images of him are likely to define an election
7:01 am
that was already turbulent. for president biden — who is under huge scrutiny over his ability to run — took the moment to call on americans to settle their differences by voting, not by violence. we can't allow this violence to be normalised. you know, the political record of this country has gotten very heated. it's time to cool it down. we all have a responsibility to do that. yes, we have deeply felt, strong disagreements. the stakes in this election are enormously high. as we pray, i want to thank god for protecting president trump, and sparing his life. at a local vigil, there were prayers and messages for the former president. people here are shocked by what's happened to donald trump. there are dozens of his supporters here. they were already going to vote for him, but now they're even more energised. look what we do — every time something happens, more money is raised.
7:02 am
i saw our epic leader stand up in the face of terror, being injured and say, "eight! _ fight!" and we have got to fight now more than ever for our nation. crooks. there is still so much unknown about the motives of the would—be assassin. 20—year—old thomas crooks from pennsylvania is now dead. 50—year—old corey comperatore was killed at the rally, after diving on his family to protect them. president biden says there will be an independent investigation into what happened. and as the republican national convention begins today, america's political rivals will now have to adjust to a totally changed presidential race. nomia iqbal reporting, we will hear from nomia again in a moment. as we've been hearing, the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks, who lived an hour's drive from the site of the rally
7:03 am
in pennsylvania, in the town of bethel park — from where our correspondent tom bateman sent this report. this ordinary suburb of pennsylvania woke to news that one of their own tried to kill donald trump. 20—year—old thomas crooks lived here with his parents, now being told their son was dead. the fbi and state police raided in the darkness, trying to work out what motivated him and whether he acted alone. how does it make you feel, knowing that...? he's on the street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel. you know, as far as... i trust the neighbourhood, i trust the people. there's never been anything happening that brought the police down here. he rode my son's school bus. so what happened ? tell me what you were told. they said that... the state police came to the door and told us that we had to evacuate, that there was a state of emergency and they said there's a bomb on the street. the police haven't confirmed a report that explosives were found in the family home, but it's known that crooks followed a website about guns and detonations. the fbi is searching the house.
7:04 am
they've been here through the night. and a key question for them will be over any motive, and whether crooks' politics played any role. records show that he was a registered republican, but he also gave $15 to a progressive or liberal campaign group on the dayjoe biden was sworn into office. in his high—school yearbook, crooks appears as a smiling teenager. 0ne former classmate is baffled about what switched for this once diligent student. he was always getting good grades on tests, everything like that. he was very passionate about history. but it was nothing out of the ordinary. he was a nice kid and i had never had an experience with him where i was like, he, you know, isn't nice. he was always nice and i was always friendly to him. america's suburbs were always set to decide this coming election. now fearand angry division is deepening — not because of the ballot box, but the barrel of a gun.
7:05 am
tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. a defiant donald trump has now arrived in milwaukee. he is going ahead with the republican national convention where he will become the party's formal candidate for president. nomia iqbal gave us this update from there. this is a big week for donald trump. the republican national convention is essentially his show, and there's lots of high—profile republicans in town and he will basically be confirmed — what we already suspect — the pa rty�*s presidential candidate. but he has said in an interview to a newspaper in the us this evening that he plans for his big speech later this week to focus on unity, rather than president biden's policies. and unity is what president biden wants, as well. both men are effectively returning to the campaign trail this week,
7:06 am
but i think what will be hugely scrutinised is the tone with which they campaign. i mean, the election has been so divisive — it was in 2020, as well — so if both men do want to take down the temperature, that will be hugely watched. another important point to make here is that the republican party is unified behind donald trump even more than ever before. i think there's a feeling by many of them that this assassination attempt on donald trump may lead to an uptick in support by the public — especially in a race that has been so static. in contrast, if you look at president biden, for the last few weeks there's been huge pressure on him by members of his own democratic party, who are worried about his age, his fragility, following that presidential debate against donald trump, and many of them calling on him to stand down. but that particular political crisis has come to a standstill for now.
7:07 am
it was heartbreak for england last night, as they lost a second euros final in a row. sally is in berlin for breakfast, where all those supporters headed out to watch the game and now have to come home feeling very downhearted. good morning. good morning. thatjourney back, i imagine, feels like a very, very long one today. i know many people spent days getting here, trains, planes and automobiles. but, yeah, here, as we reflect after that final defeat last night, huge sense of disappointment for england fans who are in the stadium last night. i can tell you this morning as the clean—up operation continues here in berlin, there are not too many england fans up and out of bed yet, no massive surprise. terribly
7:08 am
disappointed but in terms of the team themselves, even the king sent them a message last night saying they can hold their heads high and be proud of their achievements. let's look back now. yeah, they'll be hurting and there's no doubt about that. an all—too—familiar feeling. england inconsolable after becoming the first team in euros history to lose two consecutive finals. i know there'll be bitter disappointment. the pain of defeat — and the regret at the chance that evaded them — obvious. for those that had dreamed of a first trophy for 58 years, the hurt goes on. it's always the hope that kills you, isn't it? it's the hope that kills you. we'll always hope. we've got young players coming through, i think the future's really positive — more so than it's been at any point, right? because these players have got now experience of two finals. so, yeah, i'm really, really positive about the next few years. earlier, spain's young wingers had combined to devastating effect — teenager lamine yamal finding neco williams, who finished with aplomb. it's going to go over to williams now...! england were behind for a fourth match in a row, but resilience has
7:09 am
been a theme of their campaign, and so it proved yet again. now saka with some space. substitute cole palmer's made an impact from the bench throughout this tournament. never quite like this. saka gets it through, and bellingham tries to tee up palmer...! oh, yes! england once again had stepped back from the brink, but with extra time looming, mikel 0yarzabal broke their hearts. gone the other way first, 0yarzabal. cucurella gets it back in...! 0yarzabal scores for spain! england's first major final on foreign soil... whistle. ..had ended in defeat. for england, the interminable wait goes on. manager gareth southgate has revitalised this team, but having failed to lead it to the title he craved, was this his last game in charge? now's not the time to, uh, for me to speak about that. um, i need to talk to the right
7:10 am
people and, uh, give myself a bit of time. um, but it's, you know... yeah, to get to another final was a privilege, to have the opportunity. um, but, obviously, to come short is... yeah, hard. hard at the moment. so what do the fans think? possibly he could... we could do with somebody with a bit more forward thinking. i think he'll move on, but he's done a fantasticjob. get rid of southgate and start again. - new manager, different tactics. i don't think he's good enough as a manager, personally. - worthy winners spain crowned champions for a record fourth time. with a generation of highly talented young players, england will feel they can be a force at the next world cup in two years' time. but it will also be hard to recover, as another opportunity slipped by. as they prepare to leave germany, a desolate england will reflect yet again on what might have been. their campaign here underlined the undoubted progress the team has made in recent years. but ultimately, it also serves to reinforce the sense that,
7:11 am
against the very best sides, they're still not quite good enough. dan roan, bbc news, berlin. i , you have been here for the entire tournament. we had our sports editor at the bringing up gareth southgate and his future. what is next for the england manager? that and his future. what is next for the england manager?— england manager? that is the big ruestion england manager? that is the big question and _ england manager? that is the big question and what _ england manager? that is the big question and what people - england manager? that is the big question and what people will. england manager? that is the big question and what people will be | question and what people will be thinking after that defeat last night. interesting to hear that gareth southgate was saying it is perhaps too soon to think about what his future holds now, he wants to go away, speak to those closest to him but he did allude to it before the tournament began, saying this could well be his last chance to win some silverware with this england team, suggesting it could well be his last tournament, and the criticism he has faced for his approach throughout, perhaps, it wouldn't be any great surprise if, after eight years in charge of england, he did perhaps decide to call time on leading his
7:12 am
team. , ,., ., decide to call time on leading his team. , ., ., , team. one person who at times it seemed a bit _ team. one person who at times it seemed a bit frustrated _ team. one person who at times it seemed a bit frustrated with - team. one person who at times it seemed a bit frustrated with the i seemed a bit frustrated with the england bench last night wasjude bellingham, start man, he was throwing his hands up in the air, you could sense the frustration. this is what he said after the final whistle last night. we all wanted nothing more than to make history and to make the people of england proud, and we haven't managed to do it, we didn't quite deliver. there's reasons for that and i'm sure, as a team, and going forward we'll analyse it. um, but, yeah, um, ithink... it's a young group — still. it's really disappointing because at some point we do have to deliver. um, but there are experiences and there's things we can take from this tournament going forward. and, yeah, i suppose if you look at everything negatively, nothing will ever change. um, so it's important that we pick the positives and the negatives together and, um, find a way to one day get england over the line. very measured response there from jude bellingham, as you could see. the reaction after the final whistle
7:13 am
last night was incredible. lots and lots of people offering their support on social media, congratulating the squad on simply getting to another final. prince william was of course in the crowd last night. when, michael? 0h, oh, dear, i think we have lost the signal, the sound signal from oh, dear, i think we have lost the signal, the sound signalfrom sally. but we will be back with her and john later, reflecting notjust on the reaction of the fans in germany, who travelled in their thousands to berlin, but those who stayed here at home and gathered last night in living rooms and fan parks, the local pubs and guidance to watch the
7:14 am
match as it unfolded. it was full of the highs, lows and waves of emotion that we've come to expect from an england game — as our correspondent joe inwood reports. it has been a roller coaster for england fans, from hope to desperation, to a final. andy and nish have been on thatjourney. i have my own, like, negativity about southgate, but honestly, i take it all back. he's the man for us, he's done the job and i think he's going to take us to bring it home. and so there we are, the final is under way. tell you what, i'm supposed to be objective, but i'm just too nervous! the first half was — to put it diplomatically — uneventful. the second half surely will be better? rodri is off, their best player. andy, always the optimist, was hopeful for about eight seconds. how are you feeling? it's going to come home. fingers crossed. i take it back!
7:15 am
not great. at that point, mid—interview, spain havejust scored. come on, then. we scored first last time and we lost. we can see this time we're going to win. come on! come on, england! come on! and he was partly right. a moment ofjoy shared around the country. ecstatic cheering. things were looking up. and then, for some reason, i decided to interview andy again. and now i think, um...
7:16 am
again! stop filming me! i hate to say it, you are.... it's done again. stop interviewing him! oh, no! no! i may well be the curse, but i'm also the hope. we are going to still win this! there's still five minutes on the clock. we've got extra time. come on, england! we're going to do this. we've got to do this! come on! please?! but it was not to be. spain were the better side. i hope you know it was all your fault. i know, i'm so sorry. every time you filmed me, they scored! have you got a mess...? would you like to apologise to everyone? to the british public, i'm genuinely... i'm gutted. i apologise with all my heart. and, um, yeah. never, never, neverfilm me when england are playing in the final again, basically, is all i can say, yeah — sorry.
7:17 am
it was, of course, not andy's fault. this has been a memorable tournament for england fans, and what it lacked in quality, it has more than made up for in emotion. joe inwood, bbc news, in brixton. says it all, doesn't it? andy is off the christmas card list from all of us. matt has the weather. is there something to look forward to this week? well, i have been chatting to andy and he says... ! there is some sunshine around, and someone to go with it but not plain sailing, it never is. there will be some rain, as well. this morning, at least we start in many areas on a final note but in shropshire it is quite misty and murky in one or two spots and may take a while for the sunshine to come out. it will stay there on and off in the northern half of the uk but in the southern half we will see
7:18 am
some thundery rain. that is already with us across parts of south—west and the channel islands and as it moves northwards it will pipe down the pollen levels, at least, for northern england, scotland and northern ireland, expected to be high. here is the rain across the south—west, spreading into wales this morning, erratically into the south and east of england, as well. maybe a little bit hit or mist here. it will edge further north was put northern england, scotland, northern ireland, some of the low cloud will disappear but a few showers around. many places dry with some sunny spells and warm enough in the sunshine, 20 to 21 degrees. across the southern half of the uk in the evening, the rain will be quite widely across wales, parts of the midlands. bit more uncertainty in east anglia and the south—east but here we could see some torrential downpours out of the near continent and a better end to the day the south—west compared with this morning. that grain that is close to us starts to combine forces along the weather front, sitting tonight across areas of northern england,
7:19 am
north wales, north midlands and east anglia for a while. dry either side of it, some mist and fog patches and not too chilly start to tuesday but lots of showers around, especially across the eastern half of england and eastern scotland. dry for all on wednesday and later this week more rain in the north and west. for now, thank you very much indeed. what else do we need to know this morning? the foreign secretary david lammy is on his first visit to the middle east to push for an immediate ceasefire in gaza and the return of israseli hostages. 0ur correspondent nick beake joins us live from jerusalem. what should we be listening out for today during david lammy�*s visit? good morning. he says that the absolute priority is getting an immediate ceasefire and return of the hostages. yesterday he met some of the families of those taken by hamas on october the 7th, the families with links to the uk. he
7:20 am
says that is absolutely his focus. we know that gaza has been a divisive issue for his labour party, and in the recent election victory, there was this dip in support, it would seem, along muslim voters, a lot of people not happy, particularly in the early days of the war that labour was not taking a tougher position. and now labour in government has got some key decisions to make. first of all, the idea of the uk sending arms to israel. there is also labour's position on this request for an international arrest warrant for benjamin netanyahu, the prime minister. what does the government think of that? also, will the uk resume funding for the united nations agency that works to support palestinian refugees notably in gaza itself? all big questions to be asked and david lammy is talking about making sure that in his conversations with the israelis,
7:21 am
that israel is carrying out this war in accordance with international law and this is the question of proportionality. in other words, the aims of the war that israel is trying to achieve, they are being achieved at what cost? 0ver trying to achieve, they are being achieved at what cost? over at the weekend we saw many people killed. the hamas run health industry in gaza says at least 140 people were killed, there was a series of strikes in the southern city city. israel says it was targeting a top hamas commander. hick israel says it was targeting a top hamas commander.— israel says it was targeting a top hamas commander. nick beake in jerusalem. _ hamas commander. nick beake in jerusalem, thank _ hamas commander. nick beake in jerusalem, thank you. _ hamas commander. nick beake in jerusalem, thank you. full- hamas commander. nick beake in l jerusalem, thank you. full coverage of that visit across bbc news today. some breaking news here this morning. a man has been charged with two counts of murder after the discovery of human remains in suitcases in bristol and at a

flat in west london. 34—year—old yostin andres mosquera will appear at wimbledon magistrates�* court later today. police have named the two victims as 62—year—old albert alfonso, and paul longworth — who was 71. a new search for the remains of a woman who was abducted and murdered on farmland in hertfordshire more than 50 years ago begins today. muriel mckay was held to ransom in 1969 for £1 million by two men who had mistaken herfor anna murdoch — the then—wife of media mogul rupert murdoch. muriel�*s body has never been found. 0ur uk correspondent adina campbell reports. just after christmas in 1969, mother—of—three muriel mckay was kidnapped by two brothers and thrown into the back of a car
7:23 am
outside her home in london. the 55—year—old was held hostage at this farm near bishop�*s stortford in hertfordshire, owned by the brothers. but they�*d taken her by mistake, and thought she was anna murdoch — the wife of media tycoon rupert murdoch. mrs mckay was the wife of alec mckay — rupert murdoch�*s deputy. she was then held ransom. 94624656. . . and in this dramatic phone call, one of the kidnappers is heard asking her daughter, diane, for £1 million. it's concerning your mum. yes. you tell them they've gone too far. who do i tell has gone too far? ithink... tell them you've gone to the police. who�*s gone too far? we�*ve gone too far in going to the police? they've got to get a million, £1 million. i'll contact them tomorrow. and they've got to get it in fivers and tenners. where do you get £1 million from? i wouldn�*t know. well, i don't know and that's not my business. well, if you want it,
7:24 am
it�*s your business, isn�*t it? arthur and nizamodeen hosein were convicted of mrs mckay�*s kidnap and murder, although her body has never been found. arthur died in prison, but nizamodeen was deported back to the country of his birth, trinidad, after serving his sentence. earlier this year, he met mrs mckay�*s family and pointed out on a map where he buried her body on the farm. but there have already been two previous searches. one at the time of the murder, and another two years ago. police are now beginning their third and final search, giving fresh hope for the family. this farm is once again at the centre of a police search, but this time on a much bigger scale. over the next five days, forensic teams will be working tirelessly to try and find muriel mckay�*s body — 54 years on since she was murdered on this land in hertfordshire. and this shows where we�*re going to dig. so this is the building
7:25 am
we�*ve got to pull down. muriel mckay�*s grandson has spent years trying to piece together what happened, and assisting police with their investigation. it�*s difficult not to get anxious and emotional, but i�*ve got to keep on the straight and narrow. and, really, if we don�*t find her, it�*ll be a disappointment, but it won�*t be unexpected. but without searching for something, you�*re never going to find it. so we could have been in a situation, "oh, well, this is ridiculous, she�*s not there." but we haven�*t dug behind the barn — no—one�*s ever dug behind the barn. forensic teams will be scanning this land all week. muriel mckay�*s family are hoping this time they find her. adina campbell, bbc news, hertfordshire. king charles and queen camilla will visit australia in october in their first overseas tour since his cancer diagnosis. this will be the king�*s first visit to the country as monarch. the couple will also travel to samoa to attend the commonwealth heads of government meeting.

7:31 am
in the cloud, some brighter spells. temperatures tomorrow will get to around 20 celsius. we have a ridge of high pressure which is building mid—week, bringing some slightly more settled conditions for wednesday, thursday and indeed into friday, potentially. but the temperature likely to get a little warmer. that�*s it. but if you�*re a bit of a fan of history, you can read on our website about hampton court, where they�*ve opened some of their oldest rooms built for henry viii�*s right hand man thomas wolsey. but for now, back tojon. hello, this is breakfast with jon kay. in gender might have lost their euros — in gender might have lost their euros final last night, —— england might— euros final last night, —— england might have — euros final last night, —— england might have lost their euros or final last night, — might have lost their euros or final last night, but the new prime minister— last night, but the new prime

myjob is to make sure it is. we have heard from sir geoff hurst this morning. he said exactly that. he said, let�*s not forget 2 euros finals nero, a great success to build on for the future, he is calling for more investment in grassroots football, exactly what you are talking about. when will we see it and how much? but! you are talking about. when will we see it and how much?— see it and how much? and don't fortet see it and how much? and don't forget the _ see it and how much? and don't forget the lionesses _ see it and how much? and don't forget the lionesses as - see it and how much? and don't forget the lionesses as well, i forget the lionesses as well, because what they have done is inspire a whole generation of girls to believe they can do it as well. that is one of the most exciting, fast—growing parts of sport now. but the number of facilities available in local communities are just being outstripped by the interest and demand from young people. i feel it very much in wigan, where i am the mp. we are struggling to keep up. what we are announcing today is that the funding that was due to end in april next yearfor the funding that was due to end in april next year for grassroots facilities to be made available to communities across the country will continue. we will obviously enter into negotiations with the treasury
7:34 am
about how much we can make available. but we are committed to ensuring that that continues as part of the legacy of these euros. and more than that, we will take measures to make sure that pe is protected on the curriculum, that we do more to protect our football clubs. i was watching kieran trippier last night, who is the pride of bury. but bury fc was very famously a club that was allowed to collapse because of dodgy ownership and poor regulation. it is our intention to put all of these issues up intention to put all of these issues up front and centre at the heart of the next government, to ensure that in every part of britain where talent is everywhere, that opportunity is also spread fairly across the country. just opportunity is also spread fairly across the country.— opportunity is also spread fairly across the country. just to be clear on the money. _ across the country. just to be clear on the money, the _ across the country. just to be clear on the money, the last _ across the country. just to be clear i on the money, the last government, the conservative government, put up about £90 million for grassroots sports. are you going to match that going forward? we sports. are you going to match that

7:37 am
like stockport, washington, parts of the country where football is threatened and the football club that stand at the heart of their communities have been threatened over and over again by a system that does not protect against bad ownership, doesn�*t ensure proper financial sustainability, and doesn�*t incentivise clubs like premier league clubs and the lower tier clubs to come to an agreement about how finances are shared within the game. it is not my intention that we should come in and be heavy—handed about this. it is the role of sport, football itself, to reach an agreement about that. but we want to do is make sure that we get the framework right so that they�*re incentivised to reach an agreement. it they're incentivised to reach an agreement-— they're incentivised to reach an agreement. it sounds like this is all re agreement. it sounds like this is all pretty definite. _ agreement. it sounds like this is all pretty definite. can _ agreement. it sounds like this is all pretty definite. can we - agreement. it sounds like this is| all pretty definite. can we expect to see this in the kings speech on wednesday?— to see this in the kings speech on wednesday? to see this in the kings speech on wednesda ? ~ ., �* ., ., wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to re-em -t wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what _ wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what the _ wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what the king _ wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what the king is _ wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what the king is going - wednesday? well, i wouldn't want to pre-empt what the king is going to i pre—empt what the king is going to announce, but having made my first
7:38 am
visit to bury fc to meet the supporters at gigg lane, i made this a personal priority. i think you can tell we intend to crackdown as soon as possible and fulfil that promise to football fans across the country. can we just talk about events in the united states over the weekend? the attempted assassination of donald trump. 0f attempted assassination of donald trump. of course, you were close to jo cox, who was murdered, a fellow labour mp. we also might —— also saw the murder of david amis. as a prominent politician here, what you think when you see something like that anywhere in the world? horrified and angry that our politics has been allowed to descend to that level. the prime minister spoke to president trump last night to convey not only his sympathies, but his horror at what had happened, and to condemn that violence and convey his sympathies to the victims of that attack. it has been
7:39 am
heartening to see many world leaders come out and stand against what happened in america yesterday. but it is part of a wider toxicity of politics. we havejust been it is part of a wider toxicity of politics. we have just been through the general election here in the uk. it is the most toxic election i can ever remember participating in. and i think what we need is a real leadership across the political spectrum. but you can rest assured you will find that from this government, that we will condemn violence wherever it is found. keir starmer has been clear that his government will uphold the highest standards, notjust in what we do in politics, but in how we conduct ourselves as well. and the new cabinet very much intend that we are going to have a reset moment in politics, where we have far less heat, far more light, where we can disagree agreeably, and we can set a better town for the political debate we have in the country. part better town for the political debate we have in the country.— better town for the political debate we have in the country. part of your 'ob now we have in the country. part of your job now is — we have in the country. part of your job now is looking _
7:40 am
we have in the country. part of your job now is looking at _ we have in the country. part of your job now is looking at the _ we have in the country. part of your job now is looking at the media - we have in the country. part of your job now is looking at the media and j job now is looking at the media and online and digital and messaging, that kind of thing, the harm that can be done out there, the toxicity you are talking about. what kind of things do you think you might be prepared to introduce to improve political culture and debate in the uk, to get rid of that toxicity? well, there is a balance to be struck, because obviously we want to make sure that people are protected and that their rights to free speech protected, particularly in the social media space where too often people feel hounded or shouted out of the debate. but there is a real balance to be struck, i think, between that and the right of particularly greasy media to speak freely and fairly correct to particularly the media. ifeel very strongly about that. it is not the job of government to dictate what can and cannot be said. i want to bring an end to this constant political interference in the media. the accusations against many of our
7:41 am
institutions and individual journalists have got to stop. a free and fair media is an absolutely essential precondition of a political system. essential precondition of a politicalsystem. for essential precondition of a political system. for me this really is about trust. people have to be able to trust that the systems we have enabled them to have a voice and that they can trust what they are being told in what is being reported. so there is a lot of work for the new government to do, may in particular with the prime minister, to get the right regulatory framework so that all these things are possible. but you can rest assured there will be a very new approach from this government. we are very concerned to make sure that there are safeguards for people, particularly in the online space. i am instinctively very cautious about the idea that politicians should ever be trying to politicise the media. we have seen far too much of that in recent years. i think the relationship between the media and politicians is often very uncomfortable, and so it should be. because they hold us to account. and
7:42 am
i intend to take a very different approach to the previous government. as culture secretary you will also have to look at the bbc licence fee and the charter going forward, aren�*t you? i know sir keir starmer said he was committed to it for now, but he said there is going to have to be some thought between now and 27 -- 2027. how to be some thought between now and 27 —— 2027. how committed izzy to the bbc licence fee? 27 -- 2027. how committed izzy to the bbc licence fee?— the bbc licence fee? both he and i have been supporters _ the bbc licence fee? both he and i have been supporters of _ the bbc licence fee? both he and i have been supporters of the - the bbc licence fee? both he and i have been supporters of the bbc l have been supporters of the bbc licence fee, but we want to make sure that the bbc as a public service broadcaster matters hugely to our public life, is responsive to the public in every part of britain, and is able to tell an inclusive story about what it means to live in this country. we want to show for example that the commissioning power, notjust in the bbc, but across the whole of the media, isn�*t just concentrated in london, and that we see people, people can see their own lives, their community, their own lives, their community, their history, theirfuture,
7:43 am
reflected the story that we tell. i know that is something that the current management of the bbc is very committed to, because i was at media city in salford just after i had been to bury fc as part of my first visit, seeing the great content they produce. that move to media city has been really important for the north of england because it has notjust been a game changer for the north west economy, but it has opened up the range of voices heard in the news, as you know, charlie. it means what it is reported remains relevant to people in broader communities, broader geographical areas. i think the bbc is very committed to that. it�*s a very exciting agenda. and it�*s all part of what we want to look at to make sure that the bbc can continue to go on and throw it into the future. hopefully we will see you here in media city before long. in the meantime, have a good sleep. thank you. it is coming up to a quarter to eight. we were talking then about what happened in america
7:44 am
over the weekend. president biden has promised that an independent investigation into the assassination attempt on donald trump will move quickly. questions remain over how gunman thomas crooks was able to access the rally, despite a heavy security presence. we�*re joined now by former secret service agent, robert mcdonald. good morning. thank you for speaking to us. when you saw those pictures of the rally over the weekend, the shots being fired at donald trump, what was your first response is somebody who had been in the secret service? ., ., somebody who had been in the secret service? ., . ., ~ somebody who had been in the secret service? ., ., ., ,, ,, service? good morning and thank you for havin: service? good morning and thank you for having me- _ service? good morning and thank you for having me- i— service? good morning and thank you for having me. i think _ service? good morning and thank you for having me. i think my _ service? good morning and thank you for having me. i think my first - for having me. i think my first thought was that i spent 21 years in the secret service and i never had to respond to a chaotic or horrific situation like that that involved a high—powered weapon. i immediately looked to the reaction of the team around the president to see how they
7:45 am
reacted. then looked at the various other aspects. the difficulty in securing an outdoor venue like that. we are in a very contentious election in this united states and we are in the home stretch heading towards our november elections. there is a lot going on. a lot of questions that the secret service will have to answer. how this happened, why did it happen? what could have been done to prevent it? and how we move forward and continue to provide a very solid and robust plan moving forward. £311" plan moving forward. our correspondents _ plan moving forward. our correspondents said - plan moving forward. 0ur correspondents said there was airport style security for people going on in the ground. they had to have their bags and bodies checked. to what extent does it surprise you that somebody was able with a rifle to climb on to a neighbouring building and aimed directly at the stage? it�*s building and aimed directly at the state? �* , , building and aimed directly at the state? �*, , ., , building and aimed directly at the state? i , ., , ., stage? it's very troubling. having been a supervisor _
7:46 am

7:47 am
be up on capitol hill for some hearings next week. they will be some serious questioning. i hope there are some transparent and honest responses to what happened. we heard from some eyewitnesses who told the bbc they spotted a shooter on a roof with a rifle, pointing out the stage, seconds, may be minutes before it actually happened. but they said there was no immediate response from the authorities? titer? response from the authorities? very troublina. response from the authorities? very troubling- you _ response from the authorities? - troubling. you know, information is only as good as who it can be passed only as good as who it can be passed on to and who can utilise that information. so that information, when given to law enforcement through the security plan process, through the security plan process, through the security plan process, through the communications and command post process, that information should have been passed as soon as it was received to the agents in the immediate area around the former president. they could have made the decision to take him off the deus and hopefully brought into some safety. that is probably
7:48 am
the main question here, as to what happened to the communication process that would lead to better decision—making by the agents on the ground. decision-making by the agents on the round. ., , decision-making by the agents on the round. a decision-making by the agents on the round. .,, a ., ,, ,, ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you ve much ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you very much indeed _ ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you very much indeed for— ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you very much indeed forjoining - ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you very much indeed forjoining us - ground. robert mcdonnell, thank you very much indeed forjoining us here. very much indeed forjoining us here on the bbc. appreciate your time. thank you. coming up to ten macro to aid. we are recovering in england this morning as we get used to that football result. spain have double celebrations. yes, they had a helluva day. we have been talking about young spanish players out in berlin but also sw 19, because neagle williams scored a goal last night, your mall has been the talk of the tournament, 21 years old 20 —— carlos alcaraz, and already he is doing things that very few in the world of tennis have been able to do so far. celebrating once again at wimbledon. if spain made history by winning their fourth european championship last night, earlier in the day a spanish won his fourth grand slam title.
7:49 am
the men�*s singles final was a repeat of last year�*s. same players, same winner, albeit in a much shorter time, carlos alcaraz retaining his title with a straight sets win over novak djokovic, who again has come short of matching roger federer�*s eight victories at wimbledon. alcaraz is still 21, but has now won four grand slams. if you�*re looking for a bit of england v spain consolation, it came in the form of alfie hewett. he finally won the wheelchair singles title at wimbledon to complete a career grand slam. the british player had lost the last two singles finals, but beat spaniard martin de la puente in straight sets to become only the second male player to win both the singles and doubles of every tennis major, with now 30 titles to his name in total. not long after his first win, he got a second. he teamed up with partner gordon reid to claim the doubles title. they beat the japanese pair of takuya miki and tokito 0da, with hewett becoming the first man
7:50 am
since reid in 2016 to win the wimbledon wheelchair singles and doubles title in the same year. there was a thrilling finish to the scottish 0pen golf at the renaissance club, and a scottish winner. going into the 18th hole, scotland�*s bob macintyre was level on 17 under par with adam scott. he needed this birdie putt to take the title. macintyre is only the second scottish winner of the tournament. so, by way of balance than, we have managed to find an englishman and a scottish winner, two scottish winners if you can�*t gordon reid. i�*m not sure i�*m addressing that balance, but i did at least try. that is the beginning of a joke. the punch line is not the one we wanted. thank you. all eyes are now on gareth southgate, with speculation mounting around his future. his reign was the focus of the critically acclaimed play dear england, which was written
7:51 am
by playwright james graham and starred joseph fiennes as the england manager. dear england, i can�*t possibly hope to speak for the entire country, but i would like to share a few things with you this week as we begin this journey. england need a new story! i don't think the problem's out there on the pitch, i think it is here. where are the storytellers! this is like a different england. i can feel us having fun out there. well, it's all the mental preparation. what is this we're - hearing on the top floor? share your doubts? feelings?! come on, england! come on! writerjames graham joins us now.
7:52 am
morning. i thought maybe you were going to have a happy ending to update your play, but sadly not. morning. like 40 million plus other people i am feeling a bit of croaky voice and bleary eyed this morning. it sounds like gareth southgate is going to reflect on what his position is going to be. but no matter what, the last eight years of english football has been remarkable. if people cannot remember what it was like to be an england fan in 2016, at that point we hadn�*t reached a semifinal in 26 years. here we are we have reached three in the past six. so, something has happened that has completely been transformative. and for me personally, i didn�*t need to get to the very end of that story for it to be impactful, beautiful, meaningful, emotional. we are on a journey, aren�*t we? it is not a destination, it is a journey. gareth southgate
7:53 am
has led some extraordinary tracks that i think will get us to that destination terminus at some point very soon in the future.— very soon in the future. when, james, when?! _ very soon in the future. when, james, when?! it— very soon in the future. when, james, when?! it is— very soon in the future. when, james, when?! it is a - very soon in the future. when, james, when?! it is a very - very soon in the future. when, | james, when?! it is a very long journey, isn�*t it? james, when?! it is a very long journey, isn't it?— james, when?! it is a very long journey, isn't it? yes, by 2026 is the next tournament, _ journey, isn't it? yes, by 2026 is the next tournament, the - journey, isn't it? yes, by 2026 is the next tournament, the world | journey, isn't it? yes, by 2026 is. the next tournament, the world cup in america. that will be 60 years since our last win. if you are an aduu since our last win. if you are an adult in 1966, basically you are 78 years old at that point. i suppose i slightly suspect we have to stop thinking about in terms of the weight. we are going to eventually have to learn as england to enjoy the journey and getjoy have to learn as england to enjoy the journey and get joy from have to learn as england to enjoy the journey and getjoy from it, because we don�*t getjoy from it, what is the point of sport and putting ourselves through this every time? ., ., , ._ ., time? the hero of the play, of course, time? the hero of the play, of course. is _ time? the hero of the play, of course, is gareth _ time? the hero of the play, of course, is gareth southgate, i time? the hero of the play, of. course, is gareth southgate, and goes back to 96 and his failed penalty, and then they sort of narrative arc, as you say, in drama about his journey.
7:54 am
narrative arc, as you say, in drama about hisjourney. 0uch! narrative arc, as you say, in drama about his journey. 0uch! just watching it now. what is it about his story, about him, that makes him such a perfect dramatic subject? it's such a perfect dramatic subject? it�*s a good question. i personally think it is because he is that classic figure in a drama, particularly a sports story. he is the unlikely hero, the underdog. when he arrived in the role he was only given the caretaker position. no one really thought he would stay the course. and actually, as we know now he has reached his 100th game and been one of the longest serving managers in the history of the sport. i think also because he prevents himself as a nontraditional football managing figure. he is a self confessed introvert, he is quite shy, quite cerebrum. not the doors off the hinges, traditionally loud football culture we had got used to in this country. as you identify, remembering that figure in that great shirt in 1996, who missed
7:55 am
that great shirt in 1996, who missed that penalty, i don�*t think anybody would have identified him as being the person who would be responsible for altering in a sense in english football, in terms of its culture, its mindset. it feels different now being an england fan than it did in the early 90s and 2010. itjust feels better. i think that is what inspires me. he is not what you would consider to be a normal protagonist warriorfigure. he is softer and quieter than that, but he has done something really loud and epic. has done something really loud and eic. ., . has done something really loud and e ic, ., ., , ~' has done something really loud and eic. ., . , ,, ., , epic. you have been kind of inside his head writing _ epic. you have been kind of inside his head writing the _ epic. you have been kind of inside his head writing the character- epic. you have been kind of inside his head writing the character for. his head writing the character for the play. what would you expect him to do now? do you think you will hang around and wait for the world cup, or is that it for him? i hang around and wait for the world cup, or is that it for him?— cup, or is that it for him? i think the most — cup, or is that it for him? i think the most important _ cup, or is that it for him? i think the most important thing - cup, or is that it for him? i think the most important thing that i cup, or is that it for him? i think the most important thing that is| the most important thing that is going to determine that is it is not going to determine that is it is not going to determine that is it is not going to be one night in berlin last night. it was probably one night in cologne a few weeks ago. we remember the images where we drew with slovenia. we got through the group.
7:56 am
at that image of him walking towards the stands and some fans booing him and throwing cups at him, gareth southgate stood there and took it. he is never one to avoid anything. he is never one to avoid anything. he calls out the difficulty in front of him. but i wonder if that is indicated to him that is probably a bit too much and he probably doesn�*t want to put himself through that emotionally. i don�*t know. so close now, a second final in his career, and it might be tempting to steer them over the line, especially with them over the line, especially with the new talent coming through. i suspect it has all been a bit much this tournament and he will be satisfied of how far he has got the team. , . ~ , satisfied of how far he has got the team. , a , ,, ., , team. very quickly, i know the play is ttoin team. very quickly, i know the play is totin to team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be _ team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on — team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on the _ team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on the bbc _ team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on the bbc and - team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on the bbc and it - team. very quickly, i know the play is going to be on the bbc and it is l is going to be on the bbc and it is going on tour. when you change it to reflect the euros? i going on tour. when you change it to reflect the euros?— reflect the euros? i am. you have to, don't reflect the euros? i am. you have to. don't you? — reflect the euros? i am. you have to, don't you? you _ reflect the euros? i am. you have to, don't you? you have - reflect the euros? i am. you have to, don't you? you have two. - reflect the euros? i am. you have to, don't you? you have two. thej to, don�*t you? you have two. the audiences will know what happened in germany. we are to update it. in the coming days and weeks, like everybody else, i am going to try to

7:58 am
for england fans last night losing in the euros final. this was the moment the 15,000—strong crowd at the 02 celebrated, as england equalised with spain. similar scenes at pubs throughout london. but with spain scoring again, england�*s hopes of lifting the cup were ended. let�*s take a look at the tubes now. and the weather is looking decidedly wet today with heavy and thundery showers later this afternoon and evening. top temperature of 20 degrees celsius. that�*s it, but if you�*re a bit of a fan of history you can read on our website about hampton court — where they�*ve opened some of their oldest rooms. but for now, back tojon. good morning, welcome to breakfast.
7:59 am
0ur headlines today. shots and screaming. after the failed assassination attempt on donald trump, us presidentjoe biden has told americans in a live tv address that violence is never the answer. but in america, we resolve our differences at the battle box. you know, that�*s how we do it — at the battle box, not with bullets. the gunman who shot donald trump was killed by the secret service — and has been named as 20—year—old thomas crooks. good morning from berlin, where it was heartbreak for england last night. for england, the interminable wait goes on. they were beaten 2—1 in the final of the european championship by spain — so what now for england manager gareth southgate?
8:00 am
now's not the time to, uh, for me to speak about that. um, i need to talk to the right people and, uh, give myself a bit of time. plus, in the weather, a dry and bright day to come for of the northern half of the uk after a bit of a misty start, but in the south of a misty start, but in the south of the bright skies give way to dart looming clouds, could be some thunderstorms later. i will have all the details here on breakfast. it�*s monday 15th july. presidentjoe biden and donald trump have both called on americans to unite, after the former president was the target of a failed assassination attempt at the weekend. the fbi said the gunman, 20—year—old thomas crooks, acted alone. mr trump has now arrived in milwaukee for the republican national convention — where he�*s expected to be formally named as the party�*s candidate for president. from there, our correspondent
8:01 am
nomia iqbal reports. little more than 24 hours after an attempt on his life, for donald trump the show must go on. he arrived in milwaukee, where he�*ll be confirmed as the presidential candidate for the republican party later this week. the bloodied and defiant images of him are likely to define an election that was already turbulent. for president biden — who is under huge scrutiny over his ability to run — took the moment to call on americans to settle their differences by voting, not by violence. we can�*t allow this violence to be normalised. you know, the political record of this country has gotten very heated. it�*s time to cool it down. we all have a responsibility to do that. yes, we have deeply felt, strong disagreements. the stakes in this election are enormously high. as we pray, i want to thank god for protecting president trump, and sparing his life.
8:02 am
at a local vigil, there were prayers and messages for the former president. people here are shocked by what�*s happened to donald trump. there are dozens of his supporters here. they were already going to vote for him, but now they�*re even more energised. look what we do — every time something happens, more money is raised. i saw our epic leader stand up in the face of terror, being injured and say, "eight! _ fight!" and we have got to fight now more than ever for our nation. crooks. there is still so much unknown about the motives of the would—be assassin. 20—year—old thomas crooks from pennsylvania is now dead. 50—year—old corey comperatore was killed at the rally, after diving on his family to protect them. president biden says there will be an independent investigation into what happened. and as the republican national convention begins today, america�*s political rivals will now have to adjust to a totally changed presidential race.
8:03 am
nomia iqbal, bbc news, wisconsin. as we�*ve been hearing, the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks, who lived an hour�*s drive from the site of the rally in pennsylvania, in the town of bethel park — from where our correspondent tom bateman sent this report. this ordinary suburb of pennsylvania woke to news that one of their own tried to kill donald trump. 20—year—old thomas crooks lived here with his parents, now being told their son was dead. the fbi and state police raided in the darkness, trying to work out what motivated him and whether he acted alone. how does it make you feel, knowing that...? he�*s on the street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel. you know, as far as... i trust the neighbourhood, i trust the people. there�*s never been anything happening that brought the police down here.
8:04 am
he rode my son's school bus. so what happened ? tell me what you were told. they said that... the state police came to the door and told us that we had to evacuate, that there was a state of emergency and they said there's a bomb on the street. the police haven�*t confirmed a report that explosives were found in the family home, but it�*s known that crooks followed a website about guns and detonations. the fbi is searching the house. they�*ve been here through the night. and a key question for them will be over any motive, and whether crooks�* politics played any role. records show that he was a registered republican, but he also gave $15 to a progressive or liberal campaign group on the dayjoe biden was sworn into office. in his high—school yearbook, crooks appears as a smiling teenager. one former classmate is baffled about what switched for this once diligent student. he was always getting
8:05 am
good grades on tests, everything like that. he was very passionate about history. but it was nothing out of the ordinary. he was a nice kid and i had never had an experience with him where i was like, he, you know, isn�*t nice. he was always nice and i was always friendly to him. america�*s suburbs were always set to decide this coming election. now fearand angry division is deepening — not because of the ballot box, but the barrel of a gun. tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. donald trump has now arrived in milwaukee — going ahead with the republican national convention — where he will become the party�*s formal candidate for president. from there, our correspondent nomia iqbal has given us this update this is a big week for donald trump. the republican national convention is essentially his show, and there�*s lots of high—profile republicans in town and he will basically be confirmed — what we already suspect — the party�*s presidential candidate.
8:06 am
but he has said in an interview to a newspaper in the us this evening that he plans for his big speech later this week to focus on unity, rather than president biden�*s policies. and unity is what president biden wants, as well. both men are effectively returning to the campaign trail this week, but i think what will be hugely scrutinised is the tone with which they campaign. i mean, the election has been so divisive — it was in 2020, as well — so if both men do want to take down the temperature, that will be hugely watched. another important point to make here is that the republican party is unified behind donald trump even more than ever before. i think there�*s a feeling by many of them that this assassination attempt on donald trump may lead to an uptick in support by the public — especially in a race that has been so static.
8:07 am
in contrast, if you look at president biden, for the last few weeks there�*s been huge pressure on him by members of his own democratic party, who are worried about his age, his fragility, following that presidential debate against donald trump, and many of them calling on him to stand down. but that particular political crisis has come to a standstill for now. nomia iqbal reporting for breakfast. well, it�*s over. it was heartbreak for england last night, as they lost a second euros final in a row. sally was there and is in berlin this morning, where tens of thousands of supporters headed over hoping against hope, thinking this was finally going to be it. at least it is sunny, eh? it�*s was finally going to be it. at least it is sunny, eh?— it is sunny, eh? it's not but why does this _ it is sunny, eh? it's not but why does this happen _ it is sunny, eh? it's not but why does this happen every - it is sunny, eh? it's not but why does this happen every time? i it is sunny, eh? it's not but why - does this happen every time? there is always this momentjust before a
8:08 am
big england game when you can send this collective thought of maybe this collective thought of maybe this is the one. and as we walked into the stadium last night there was a real mood of, maybe this is the one, maybe they have worked so hard through this tournament and struggled and suffered and the games have not been pretty, may be the final is the moment when they were going to prove they could just do that final, that one more game to get their hands on the trophy. but it wasn�*t to be and i have to say, this morning, i am not sure the weather here in berlin matches the mood because for one or two england fans that we have seen, they are pretty glum as no surprise. outbreak last night. england�*s players got a message from the king saying they should hold their heads up high and be proud of their achievements throughout this tournament. really important message from him. i was sports editor it now looks back at the match. yeah, they�*ll be hurting and there�*s no doubt about that. an all—too—familiar feeling. england inconsolable after becoming the first team in euros history to lose two consecutive finals. i know there�*ll be bitter disappointment. the pain of defeat —
8:09 am
and the regret at the chance that evaded them — obvious. for those that had dreamed of a first trophy for 58 years, the hurt goes on. it's always the hope that kills you, isn't it? it's the hope that kills you. we'll always hope. we�*ve got young players coming through, i think the future�*s really positive — more so than it�*s been at any point, right? because these players have got now experience of two finals. so, yeah, i�*m really, really positive about the next few years. earlier, spain�*s young wingers had combined to devastating effect — teenager lamine yamal finding neco williams, who finished with aplomb. it�*s going to go over to williams now...! england were behind for a fourth match in a row, but resilience has been a theme of their campaign, and so it proved yet again. now saka with some space. substitute cole palmer�*s made an impact from the bench throughout this tournament. never quite like this. saka gets it through, and bellingham tries to tee up palmer...! oh, yes! england once again had stepped
8:10 am
back from the brink, but with extra time looming, mikel oyarzabal broke their hearts. gone the other way first, to oyarzabal. cucurella gets it back in...! oyarzabal scores for spain! england�*s first major final on foreign soil... whistle. ..had ended in defeat. for england, the interminable wait goes on. manager gareth southgate has revitalised this team, but having failed to lead it to the title he craved, was this his last game in charge? now's not the time to, uh, for me to speak about that. um, i need to talk to the right people and, uh, give myself a bit of time. um, but it's, you know... yeah, to get to another final was a privilege, to have the opportunity. um, but, obviously, to come short is... yeah, hard. hard at the moment. so what do the fans think? possibly he could... we could do with somebody with a bit more forward thinking.
8:11 am
i think he'll move on, but he's done a fantasticjob. get rid of southgate and start again. - new manager, different tactics. i don't think he's good enough as a manager, personally. - worthy winners spain crowned champions for a record fourth time. with a generation of highly talented young players, england will feel they can be a force at the next world cup in two years�* time. but it will also be hard to recover, as another opportunity slipped by. as they prepare to leave germany, a desolate england will reflect yet again on what might have been. their campaign here underlined the undoubted progress the team has made in recent years. but ultimately, it also serves to reinforce the sense that, against the very best sides, they�*re still not quite good enough. dan roan, bbc news, berlin. well, let�*s take you live to the england team hotel which is not far from where i am standing. they are
8:12 am
due to leave the hotel in just over an hour. you can only imagine the mood inside there as they wake up having got so close, having got to another final and having got so close, having got to anotherfinal and having been beaten in another final. anotherfinal and having been beaten in anotherfinal. everybody anotherfinal and having been beaten in another final. everybody packing up in another final. everybody packing up after many weeks away from home. they of course have been in their base very much removed away from everyone else, in a bubble, if you like, came to berlin the night before the game in this hotel, which was meant to be a secret location but didn�*t stay secret for long, i can tell you! the buses ready to take them to the airport and fly home later today. england have another couple of hours left in germany before they all go their separate ways to reflect on what has been, in lots of ways, an amazing tournament for them butjust not quite amazing enough. one man we have spoken about a lot is the england captain harry kane, there was debate over whether he should
8:13 am
even be playing for some of those games, when he should start, be subbed earlier. also heard from jude bellingham, had a fantastic season with his club, and you could sense his frustration last night. we all wanted nothing more than to make history and to make the people of england proud, and we haven�*t managed to do it, we didn�*t quite deliver. there�*s reasons for that and i�*m sure, as a team, and going forward we�*ll analyse it. um, but, yeah, um, ithink... it�*s a young group — still. it�*s really disappointing because at some point we do have to deliver. um, but there are experiences and there�*s things we can take from this tournament going forward. and, yeah, i suppose if you look at everything negatively, nothing will ever change. um, so it�*s important that we pick the positives and the negatives together and, um, find a way to one day get england over the line. there were a host of famous faces in the crowds last night, there to support england. let�*sjust the crowds last night, there to support england. let�*s just show you a tweet that was posted by the
8:14 am
prince of wales, who was there with his son prince george, he said this... prince william said... michael owen said he felt optimistic despite the result. "it�*s coming home" was the song of the summer for many of us, but comedian david baddiel simply tweeted. .. finally, the king wrote a heartfelt letter to the england manager gareth southgate. he said that "although victory may have eluded" him this evening, he urged them to hold their heads high. utterly despairing, such a result can feel when the price is so near. he alsojoined in sending heartfelt sympathy and simply
8:15 am
getting to the final was a great achievement in itself. the three lions should be proud of the many achievements and triumphs which will lie ahead. those are the words of the king. after the defeat last night. jon, it is really easy to reflect on the defeat and people to make quick decisions and assumptions about who played well, who didn�*t play well, but what we might find is there will be a little bit of time to reflect and plan and see what changes come for this england team from the football association in the days and weeks to come. bud football association in the days and weeks to come-— weeks to come. and all eyes on gareth southgate _ weeks to come. and all eyes on gareth southgate and _ weeks to come. and all eyes on gareth southgate and what - weeks to come. and all eyes on gareth southgate and what he i weeks to come. and all eyes on - gareth southgate and what he decides to do. for now, thank you very much indeed. sally in berlin. monday morning, hope you feel all right today if you�*re an england fan. i�*m slightly nervous because it is 15th ofjune, which means it is saints within the state and

8:19 am
mr lammy says that the absolute priority is getting an immediate ceasefire and return of those hostages. yesterday he met some of the families of those taken by hamas on october the 7th — the families with links to the uk. so he says that is absolutely his focus. we know that gaza has been a divisive issue for his labour party, and in the recent election victory, there was this dip in support, it would seem, along muslim voters — it would seem, among muslim voters — a lot of people not happy, particularly in the early days of the war, that labour was not taking a tougher position. and now labour in government has got some key decisions to make. first of all, the idea of the uk sending arms to israel. there�*s also labour�*s position on this request for an international arrest warrant for benjamin netanyahu, the prime minister — what does the government think of that? and also, is the uk going to resume funding for the united nations agency that works to support palestinian
8:20 am
refugees — notably in gaza itself? all big questions to be asked, and mr lammy is talking about making sure that in his conversations with the israelis, that israel is carrying out this war in accordance with international law, and this is the question of proportionality — in other words, the aims of the war that israel is trying to achieve, they�*re being achieved at what cost? and over the weekend we saw many people killed. the hamas—run health ministry in gaza saying at least 140 people were killed. there was this really big strike — series of strikes — in a southern city, khan yunis. we�*re told that 90 people were killed in that and that half of those killed were women and children. israel says it was targeting a top hamas commander. a new search for the remains of a woman who was abducted and murdered on farmland in hertfordshire more than 50 years ago begins today. muriel mckay was held to ransom in 1969 for £1 million by two men who had mistaken her
8:21 am
for anna murdoch — the then—wife of media mogul rupert murdoch. muriel�*s body has never been found. our uk correspondent adina campbell reports. just after christmas in 1969, mother—of—three muriel mckay was kidnapped by two brothers and thrown into the back of a car outside her home in london. the 55—year—old was held hostage at this farm near bishop�*s stortford in hertfordshire, owned by the brothers. but they�*d taken her by mistake, and thought she was anna murdoch — the wife of media tycoon rupert murdoch. mrs mckay was the wife of alec mckay — rupert murdoch�*s deputy. she was then held ransom. 94624656. . . and in this dramatic phone call, one of the kidnappers is heard asking her daughter,
8:22 am
diane, for £1 million. it's concerning your mum. yes? you tell them they've gone too far. who do i tell has gone too far? ithink... tell them you've gone to the police. who�*s gone too far? we�*ve gone too far in going to the police? they've got to get a million, £1 million. i'll contact them tomorrow. and they've got to get it in fivers and tenners. where do you get £1 million from? i wouldn�*t know. well, i don't know and that's not my business. well, if you want it, it�*s your business, isn�*t it? arthur and nizamodeen hosein were convicted of mrs mckay�*s kidnap and murder, although her body has never been found. arthur died in prison, but nizamodeen was deported back to the country of his birth, trinidad, after serving his sentence. earlier this year, he met mrs mckay�*s family and pointed out on a map where he buried her body on the farm. but there have already been two previous searches — one at the time of the murder, and another two years ago.
8:23 am
police are now beginning their third and final search, giving fresh hope for the family. this farm is once again at the centre of a police search, but this time on a much bigger scale. over the next five days, forensic teams will be working tirelessly to try and find muriel mckay�*s body — 54 years on since she was murdered on this land in hertfordshire. and this shows where we�*re going to dig. so this is the building we�*ve got to pull down. muriel mckay�*s grandson has spent years trying to piece together what happened, and assisting police with their investigation. it�*s difficult not to get anxious and emotional, but i�*ve got to keep on the straight and narrow. and, really, if we don�*t find her, it�*ll be a disappointment, but it won�*t be unexpected. but without searching for something, you�*re never going to find it. so we could have been in a situation, "oh, well, this is ridiculous, she�*s not there." but we haven�*t dug behind the barn — no—one�*s ever dug behind the barn. forensic teams will be
8:24 am
scanning this land all week. muriel mckay�*s family are hoping this time they find her. adina campbell, bbc news, hertfordshire. the american actor shannen doherty has died at the age of 53. she was best known for her role as high—school student brenda walsh in the hit �*90s tv drama beverly hills 90210. shannen had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 and last year she revealed the disease had spread. king charles and queen camilla will visit australia in october in their first overseas tour since his cancer diagnosis. this will be the king�*s first visit to the country as monarch. the couple will also travel to samoa to attend the commonwealth heads of government meeting.

london, i�*mjim wheble. well, it was a dramatic night of football to the say the least for fans across the capital, watching england lose the euros final. this was the moment the 15,000 strong crowd at the o2 celebrated, as england equalised with spain. similar scenes at pubs throughout london. but then spain scored again to win the euro championship in berlin. heartbreak for fans but for the bars and pubs across the capital, the tournament has offered a welcome boost. we work in, like, a vibes economy. a tournament like this — especially when england do well — the mood is great. it�*s been incredible, it�*s been so much fun. we�*ve been busy — booked out for all the games — and we�*ve almost sold completely out of beer. a second child has died after a house fire in east london at the weekend.

now onto the weather with kate. good morning. it is going to be another week of rather changeable weather. for this morning there is a bit of sunshine, but the cloud will fairly quickly increase, and with that, some showery rain, turning heavier as we head through the day. the sunshine this morning burning back any mist patches. cloud increases, the showery rain arrives. there could be some lightning mixed in there this afternoon. temperatures today, 20 celsius, a little cooler than yesterday thanks to the rain and the cloud. these showers will continue through this evening, first part of the night. becoming a little drier. the cloud breaks, some clear spells through the early hours. the minimum temperature dropping down to 12 celsius. the cloud builds back in as we head into tuesday morning. we could see some further rainfirst thing. turning a little more showery through the day, with some dry spells, some breaks in the cloud, some brighter spells. temperatures tomorrow will get to around 20 celsius. we have a ridge of high pressure which is building mid—week, bringing some slightly more settled conditions for wednesday, thursday and indeed into friday, potentially. but the temperature likely

as the election approaches. and the higher the stakes, the more fervent the passions become. in america we resolve our differences at the ballot box. now that�*s how we do it, at the ballot box. not with bullets. the power to change america should always rest in the hands of the people. the president also sent his best wishes to mr trump, who was shot in the ear on saturday when addressing a crowd in butler, pennsylvania at a campaign rally. this is one of the startling images — mr trump lying on the ground, surrounded by secret service officers. on social media, donald trump said... "it is more important than ever that we stand united and show our true character as americans, remaining strong and determined, and not allowing evil to win." the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. authorities are yet to establish

a motive for the shooting. crooks lived around an hour�*s drive from the site of the rally in pennsylvania, in the town of bethel park. our analysis editor ros atkins has been working with the team at bbc verify to piece together videos, eyewitness testimony and satellite imagery. how did the us secret service fail to stop this? gunfire. get down, get down, get down! the fbi says this was an attempted assassination, that it�*s surprising the attacker was able to open fire. bbc verify has examined videos, eyewitness testimony, and satellite imagery to build up a detailed picture of how that happened. on saturday night, donald trump was speaking at a campaign event in the city of butler, in pennsylvania. he took to the stage at 6.03pm. there were bleachers behind him, and secret service snipers on a roof. just over 100 metres away were these buildings — outside the rally venue.
8:33 am
from the nearest, the gunman had a clear line of sight to the stage. this video shows the same buildings. it was filmed at 6.10pm — we know this because we can hear trump�*s speech in the background. the smaller building on the right is the one the gunman was on. in this video, we see a man talking to someone who appears to be a police officer — they both look at the buildings. an eyewitness also told the bbc that while trump was speaking, they�*d seen someone on the roof. we noticed a guy crawling — you know, bear—crawling up the roof of the building beside us. we�*re pointing at the guy crawling up the roof. and he had a gun, right? he had a rifle. a rifle. we could clearly see him with a rifle. and the police were like, "huh, what?" you know, like, they didn�*t know what was going on. the police haven�*t responded to this claim. there�*s also this video — filmed by a member of the public, and showing the gunman as he opens fire. at 6.11pm, there were three shots. trump raises his hand to his right ear and ducks. there were more shots. one person in the crowd was killed, two others were critically injured.
8:34 am
this video shows an injured man being carried away. cross—referencing with other videos, we know this is in the bleacher to the right of the stage — that�*s consistent with the shot being fired from the roof towards trump. seconds after the shots were fired, in the words of the secret service, snipers neutralised the shooter. this video shows a person motionless on the roof of the building. on the stage, secret service agents surrounded donald trump before moving him away. we have a clear picture of how this attempted assassination played out. the investigation will want to find out why the secret service didn�*t do more to prevent it. ros atkins. there is lots more coverage and analysis of events in america on the bbc news website. 8:35am. we are debriefing this morning on the football. england came so close
8:35 am
to winning their first major men�*s trophy in 58 years last night. there was a lot of excitement before the tournament began, but also high expectations. sally is in berlin. we canjoin her with one of the great. good morning. morning. ithink someone said already this morning it is the hope without guilty. there was certainly a sense of hope last night in berlin. —— it is the hope that kills you. joined by david james, former england good morning. first of all, your reaction, your assessment of the game? £15 first of all, your reaction, your assessment of the game? 45 minutes, first half or, — assessment of the game? 45 minutes, first half or, i — assessment of the game? 45 minutes, first half or, i thought _ assessment of the game? 45 minutes, first half or, i thought we _ assessment of the game? 45 minutes, first half or, i thought we were - first half or, i thought we were excellent. we essentially nullified the best team in the tournament up to that point to very few opportunities. two minutes into the second half everything went a bit pete tong. there is a bit of me
8:36 am
which is frustrated as a supporter because you wanted england, i wanted england to win. there is a realistic point, the best team in the tournament, the best team in any euros or tournament, beat us. which makes it a little bit easier to swallow. ., , , makes it a little bit easier to swallow. . , , ., ., swallow. perhaps. you mentioned the first half. it was _ swallow. perhaps. you mentioned the first half. it was a _ swallow. perhaps. you mentioned the first half. it was a time _ swallow. perhaps. you mentioned the first half. it was a time is _ swallow. perhaps. you mentioned the first half. it was a time is a _ first half. it was a time is a difficult watch. but we got to half—time and we thought, we�*ve had difficult first halves before and come back, could it happen? exactly. i was come back, could it happen? exactly. l was watching _ come back, could it happen? exactly. i was watching the _ come back, could it happen? exactly. i was watching the game _ come back, could it happen? exactly. i was watching the game more - i was watching the game more tactically than waiting for something brilliant happened. very interested in phil foden�*s role with rodri, i thought he did that superbly. the two fullbacks was superbly. the two fullbacks was superb against two of the best players in the tournament. i thought, maybe we will have to endure this for another 45 minutes. if it means we get one chance at the end and we win, it is worth it. the
8:37 am
half—time substitution with rodri was, hang on a minute, what is going on here? i don�*t think there was a plan for not having rodri on the pitch. plan for not having rodri on the itch. ~ ., plan for not having rodri on the ittch. ~ . ., plan for not having rodri on the titch. ~ . ., pitch. what next for gareth southgate? _ pitch. what next for gareth southgate? what - pitch. what next for gareth southgate? what next? i l pitch. what next for gareth - southgate? what next? i think he pitch. what next for gareth _ southgate? what next? i think he has alread said southgate? what next? i think he has already said publicly _ southgate? what next? i think he has already said publicly that _ southgate? what next? i think he has already said publicly that he _ southgate? what next? i think he has already said publicly that he has - already said publicly that he has got a decision to make based on a number of factors. i think again, without sounding too cliched, we have a manager who has taken our country into a position where we should expect to get to finals. yes, we want to win finals. but three tournaments, four tournaments, with excellent results. i would like to see him stay on. i think that again, things change a little bit in the final and we things change a little bit in the finaland we can things change a little bit in the final and we can end up winning. i think he is the right man. in the way he has handled himself in this tournament has been incredible. no quick decision? definitely not. he has got time. i would like to see him stay.

8:40 am
you�*ve got to say, hang on a minute, we have been to two european finals. the best team in european final history betas. we didn�*t get beaten by a team who are average and suddenly turned it on. spain were unbelievable. they have broken every record. most consecutive wins, most individual goal—scorers in any tournament from one team. thea;t individual goal-scorers in any tournament from one team. they were fantastic. tournament from one team. they were fantastic- that — tournament from one team. they were fantastic. that might _ tournament from one team. they were fantastic. that might be _ tournament from one team. they were fantastic. that might be where - tournament from one team. they were fantastic. that might be where we - fantastic. that might be where we leave it, with that thought that actually, spain were fantastic. and let�*s just continue and go tojohn maguire, who i know has more reaction this morning from people who were watching the england game last night. morning. we are actually at this young man�*s former primary school in west london. bukaya saka was only —— is only 22 years old. he would have been playing on this playground 11, 12 years ago. the staff here still

8:47 am
were plenty of spanish winners yesterday outside of berlin, including carlos alcaraz at wimbledon. they always have the traditional champions�* ball on the night of the men pass final. but he had to attend but there was a bit of a clash in his diary because he had to watch some of the final on his phone to make sure he was able to watch it. but he did dance, apparently, to some success. they danced to dewar leeper. barbora krejcikova also there. —— dewar leeper. carlos alcaraz not the only spaniard dancing last night. he is to back wimbledon champion. the men�*s singles final was a repeat of last year�*s, same players, same winner, albeit in a much shorter time. carlos alcaraz retaining his title with a straight sets win over novak djokovic, who again has come short of matching roger federer�*s eight victories at wimbledon.
8:48 am
alcaraz is still 21, but has now won four grand slams. indeed he�*s not lost a final yet, with this performance described by one bbc pundit as an annihilation. it's a dream for me, uh, winning this this trophy. uh, yeah. i think an interview when i was 12 or 11 years old, i said that my dream is to win, uh, wimbledon. uh, so i'm. yeah. uh, i'm repeating, you know, my, uh, my dream. it's a great feeling to to play in this court, in this beautiful court, uh, to leave this amazing trophy. i'm going to say. or i said it before that, uh, for me, this the most beautiful tournament, the most beautiful court, and obviously the most beautiful trophy. if you�*re looking for a bit of england v spain consolation, it came in the form of alfie hewett. he finally won the wheelchair singles title at wimbledon to complete a career grand slam. the british player had lost the last two singles finals, but beat spaniard martin de la puente in straight sets to become
8:49 am
only the second male player to win both the singles and doubles of every tennis major, with now 30 titles to his name in total. it felt like it was building each year, the expectation, the pressure. more questions were being asked. obviously it was the last one in my career grand slam to sort of take off. it felt like it was always fitting that it had to be a wimbledon singles. what an occasion to do it on number one court in front of all my friends and the majority of my family. all the fans and the coverage it has had, it is truly special. and then not long after his first win, he got a second, as he teamed up with partner gordon reid to claim the doubles title. they beat the japanese pair of takuya miki and tokito 0da, with hewett becoming the first man since reid in 2016 to win the wimbledon wheelchair singles and doubles title in the same year. there was a thrilling finish to the scottish open golf

at the renaissance club and a scottish winner. going into the 18th hole, scotland�*s bob macintyre was level on 17 under par with adam scott and needed this birdie putt to take the title. macintyre is only the second scottish winner of the tournament. there are six stages to go at the tour de france and tadej pogacar is closing in on a third yellowjersey. the slovenian dominated stage 15 in the pyrenees, soaring away from his closest rival jonas vingegaard to leave the defending champion trailing in his wake. pogacar now leads by over three minutes. that resumes and it goes on, as does the rest of the sport. the euros are finished, wimbledon is finished. but we have plenty more. the olympics starting at the end of next month. let�*s concentrate on that. let�*s be

positive. thank you. just after ten to nine. matt can tell us what the weather is looking at. good morning. a brand—new week and another week in which i can promise you some long spells of dry weather just yet. —— can�*t promise you. we will all get some drier days to make the most. it will feel warmer than last week when the sun is out. todayrain comes courtesy of this area of low pressure creeping in from the south—west and the bay of biscay. some lively downpours. reining in channel islands, south—west england, wales, it will push north and east. some of the north and east may stage dry till later this afternoon. widespread rain and winds later. northern ireland and scotland, isolated showers. sunny spells developing. it will feel pleasant in the sunshine.
8:52 am
21, 20 two celsius possible. a warmer day in south east scotland, south—east england. rain is pushing northwards through tonight. it turns drier in southern counties. heavy rain in east anglia, past the midlands, north wales, and eventually into the north and east of england. either side of it, something drier. temperatures 13 or 14 degrees. it will be a disappointing start again around the north sea coasts. the rain will ease away eastwards after going back through east anglia during the afternoon. showers developing here and there. showers around the pennines and the peak district. could see flashes of lightning, rumbles of thunder. dry weather later on to the southend west. because the winds are more north—westerly, temperatures down a touch on today. wednesday is a day touch on today. wednesday is a day to circle in the diary for something
8:53 am
a bit more widely dry. these weather fronts will complicate things in the north and west later on. with high—pressure nosing its way in, a lovely start to the day for many. a few mist and fog patches around. isolated chance of a shower. the greatest chance of some rain across ireland, maybe the western isles later in the day. before that, most will see temperatures of 19 to 24 degrees. these are the sort of values you normally expect that the stage injuly. we have been well below them a lot in the last couple of weeks. as we go through the last half of the week, the weather fronts pushing into the north and west. rain here at times. as these gang up later on into friday, we should draw in something a great deal warmer. by friday we could see temperatures across some southern and eastern areas hit around 25 to 27 degrees. rain times in the north, it will turn this weekend. with it, the return of some rain.
8:54 am
i believe it. cheer us up. looking further ahead, are we looking at the beginnings of something a bit more settled? the longer term computers are showing that august will be a little bit drier and a little bit warmer than we have seen so far. fingers crossed, it will lead to longer drier spells. we wait to see. that�*s one result we can all celebrate this morning. thank you. it was heartbreak for england in the euros last night. despite coming from behind for the fourth game in a row, the three lions couldn�*t stop spain from scoring a late winner to snatch a 2—1victory. spain went into the game as favourites, after winning all six of their matches, but england�*s route the final was anything but smooth, asjoe lynskey reports. 58 years of waiting. it was nearly complete. viva espana! in 2024, spain are again

the champions of europe. an england team falls at the last match again. the way there was a journey — ofjoy and of doubt. four weeks ago, england scored against serbia, but then sat back and held on. next, against denmark, it all felt familiar. this time the lead slipped — it finished 1—1. their start in group c had brought critics. no energy, no guile. there�*s so much more to come from those players out there. is the manager telling you to drop back deeper once you do score? no, not at all! england were through, but still waiting for answers. a 0—0 draw with slovenia set them up for slovakia. the last 16 — it looked like the last stand. what a chance this is. and slovakia lead! for 95 minutes, england were sinking. poor. we're running out of ideas. i don't know, we just...
8:56 am
we're just too slow. nothing has changed. no attacking quality, nothing. on the last throw of the dice, everything flipped. and it�*s in! jude bellingham! for england, it felt like their tournament had turned. their path through the knockouts had now opened up. there it goes from eze, and deflected back in for kane! it'd be nice now if the media and a lot of the fans realise we're a lot stronger when we work together. saved byjordan pickford! last time we took a penalty shoot—out at the euros, we all know what happened. so i think it shows how much we want to win this tournament. how do you do that? how do you not even look at the ball? pressure? what pressure? pressure is for tyres! we all want to be loved, right? when you are doing something for your country and you're - a proud englishman... you know, when you don't feel that
8:57 am
back, and when all you read - is criticism, it's hard. watkins turns! watkins scores! ollie watkins! that is wonderful! i took the job to try- and improve english football. i hope this england team go for it. have no regrets. it�*s going to go over to williams now...! well, i've said england have been a moments team in this competition. who's going to produce one now? saka gets it through and bellingham tries to tee up palmer! oh, yes! cucurella gets it back in! oyarzabal scores for spain! the team have done the country proud. i reached the first final away from england. i we have now been consistently back in the matches that matter. - it's the last step that we haven't been able to do.
8:58 am
