'to the players, to the players, i don't think closer to the players, i don't think it is that far until we see the players have come off. you said an interesting thing there in the final answer about spain as a collective, they were greater than the sum of their parts, and i suppose that is exactly what so many people have said about england, in a sense the opposite way. said about england, in a sense the opposite way-— said about england, in a sense the opposite way. yes, we have always over the years. _ opposite way. yes, we have always over the years, we _ opposite way. yes, we have always over the years, we are _ opposite way. yes, we have always over the years, we are a _ opposite way. yes, we have always over the years, we are a big - over the years, we are a big country, we produce good players and i would argue our euro 2014 were man—to—man as good as the site and they didn't get past the quarterfinals, renee was injured in that tournament, and what is wonderful about spain as they come together so well, they had their own problems with injuries and players not being available but they adapt very quickly. —— rooney was injured. they have a safety net for back into so when they are struggling in the games, they know instinctively how
2:01 pm
to retain the ball and i think that was a huge factor last night and under pressure in a huge final, there is a lot of scrutiny on these young guys and they were able to keep the ball and southgate made that time and time again, that point, it is hard when you don't hold onto the ball. they have really gone far in the last four tournaments but it was a problem backin tournaments but it was a problem back in the 90s and the 805, tournament back in the 905 and the 805, tournament football is very different, often played in very hot conditions in summer at the end of long 5ea5on5, they have to keep the ball because otherwise you are chasing it and spain were very good at that, they were better at that than england were last night. again, i will tell you — than england were last night. again, i will tell you what _ than england were last night. again, i will tell you what we _ than england were last night. again, i will tell you what we are _ than england were last night. again, i will tell you what we are seeing - i will tell you what we are seeing as you are commentating because the door is open, the various official bit5 have been done, so the next images, you will see players and
2:02 pm
managers descend from those 5tair5 managers descend from those stairs and these are the second is that millions around the countries were hoping that they would emerge with a trophy but that is not to be. how close do you think england are? clo5e do you think england are? look, they have never been to a final of a european championships until euro 2020 which was played a few years ago, so they have done two in a row. unfortunately lo5t few years ago, so they have done two in a row. unfortunately lost both. i think the dynamics of the next world cup which is being held in 2026 in three different countries, united states, canada and mexico, the logistics of that will be huge because there has never been a greater distance between two host cities, i think there is one in mexico and one in canada which has the record of the distance between two host cities that it world cup, 5o two host cities that it world cup, so every team will look at how they handle that. of course, england, the only other time of the world cup has been held in north america, in the us in 1994, england didn't qualify, that was the defeat to the dutch
2:03 pm
which we talked a lot about before england's semifinal against the netherlands, 5o england's semifinal against the netherlands, so that it is a real 5car netherlands, so that it is a real scar on the english psyche, but the games come very quickly. england have to be ready to qualify again, they have a game in about six weeks' time against the republic of ireland, 5o time against the republic of ireland, so that the page turns again and if it is the case that gareth southgate leave5, there is huge pressure on the fa to appoint the right man and this is where the executive of the fa, they haven't had to do it for eight years and gareth southgate really was, as you remember, an accidental appointment after the abrupt departure of sam allardyce and started as the caretaker manager, so for mark billingham, the chief executive, the technical director of the fa, this is where the crunch comes from doctor southgate is to leave, they have to find the right successor.
2:04 pm
they have said already they don't think you necessarily have to be english, there are a lot of people who would disagree, that it is your country's best in every respect against other countries, so let's see. i would expect and hope that they have plans in place already and they have plans in place already and they have plans in place already and they have a short list of people that they think are potential appointments who would be interested in it. ., . ~' appointments who would be interested in it. ., ., ~ ., , ., ., in it. you talked at the start about the positives _ in it. you talked at the start about the positives compared _ in it. you talked at the start about the positives compared to - in it. you talked at the start about | the positives compared to previous tournaments that you had covered. when you look at the players, you can see why there is so much hope that actually a manager, whoever the manager is, is able to mould that sort of group into a tournament winning side. it sort of group into a tournament winning side-— winning side. it is a very attractive _ winning side. it is a very attractive job, _ winning side. it is a very attractive job, these - winning side. it is a very attractive job, these arej winning side. it is a very - attractive job, these are really attractivejob, these are really fine players. bukayo saka, i thought he had an outstanding tournament, still very young but extremely
2:05 pm
experienced, so you have young players with very high level of tournament experience and it southgate. ijust hope that the next manager builds on the culture southgate has built, i think there are so many things that are positive, i think it is very important to introduce young players to what history of the team is, it is 152 years old, one of the most recognisable public institutions in english public life. he has done very well as expending that, the notion of legacy numbers which is something they took the england cricket team where every player is, when they make their debut, gets a number which is the sequential number which is the sequential number of him appearing as an england footballer, i think that is a lovely idea and knits past and present beautifully, but i really hope that whoever is appointed understands the strife that gareth has made, he looks at the ericsson
2:06 pm
years, he was a good man, ericsson, but he was very laissez faire in his approach. and we have to find the right balance. it is approach. and we have to find the right balance-— approach. and we have to find the right balance. it is interesting how ou right balance. it is interesting how you describe _ right balance. it is interesting how you describe southgate's - right balance. it is interesting howl you describe southgate's approach, because he absolutely has transformed the atmosphere around the whole england camp, you listen to the players and it is obvious that they really like playing for him. the question mark i suppose would be, is he ruthless enough? i would be, is he ruthless enough? i would argue he is. if you look at the players that he has got rid of over the years, wayne rooney was the first one he went. he was the player of his generation, at the time he was england's all—time top goal—scorer, harry kane has now overtaken him. rooney suffered a bit that they generate around him was not as strong as the so—called golden generation. many others have fallen by the wayside, raheem sterling was a fundamental power in
2:07 pm
gareth's squad and he was cut quite abruptly. earlierthan gareth's squad and he was cut quite abruptly. earlier than that it was daddy ali and jesse lingard. —— dele alli. it is good that there is a strong amount of players available, and i think that he comes across as and i think that he comes across as a gentle soul he has made a lot of good decisions. there will be players getting off that pain who are angry with him because they have not paid enough. that is the life of an england manager, you cannot keep everyone happy. you are not a manchester city or liverpool manager when you have 60 games a season and for micro different competitions, it is a very different kind ofjob. you is a very different kind of “0b. you are riaht is a very different kind of “0b. you are right about t is a very different kind ofjob. you are right about that, and ivan tony, who came on with one minute to go in one of those crucial games, admitted he had the hump with gareth
2:08 pm
southgate and i'm just going to pause because just the early departures are from the plane. not to be players, but i was saying that ivan tony admitted he had the hump with gareth southgate and just had to get over his mood and that is how he described it in the press conference. i'm sure you are to hear the comments, but it is tough in terms of trying to give everyone time, but when you look at the spanish team, you look at that 17—year—old playing with no nerves at all, without any sort of caution and i suppose if there is some sort of feeling amongst england fans, they would like to see more of that from that array of fabulous talent we were talking about. i understand that and i think — we were talking about. i understand that and i think the _ we were talking about. i understand that and i think the way _ we were talking about. i understand that and i think the way that - we were talking about. i understand that and i think the way that gareth | that and i think the way that gareth set the team up was a fundamentally defensive outlook, a solid base, and some people just feel you should go
2:09 pm
into tournaments and blitz your way through it. i still don't think spain were a reckless team, they were built on solid foundations, their two centre halves were excellent. i think if you look at a lot of tournament sites, they can be quite conservative. the great france team that won in 2018 and got to the qatar world cup final in 2022, they are a counterattacking team. for all the absurd depth of talent that the french squad has got, including kilian mbappe, they don't want the ball a lot of the time, they are a counterattacking team, so i think tournaments seem to be won by cautious teams and i still feel that i don't feel like spain were completely reckless. but i understand that criticism, i think one of the things you would say as they tended to react to go behind and when cole palmer came on, he looks like a real threat every time
2:10 pm
he came on and clearly he scored the goal last night. but i thought gareth got his substitutions right in the semifinal against the netherlands under a lot of pressure and the team delivered. yes, in hindsight, maybe you would have brought kane off earlier. i’m hindsight, maybe you would have brought kane off earlier.— brought kane off earlier. i'm “ust ttoin to brought kane off earlier. i'm “ust going to interrupt i brought kane off earlier. i'm “ust going to interrupt you i brought kane off earlier. i'm “ust going to interrupt you only h brought kane off earlier. i'm just going to interrupt you only to - brought kane off earlier. i'm just| going to interrupt you only to say that's because i know you cannot see the pictures, some of the staff are coming down the steps first, but gareth southgate right in the centre of the picture, a quick handshake and so they return home and really tough, these moments, because that they are away for weeks, the build—up, the training, the anticipation and then the games, the group stages and the games, quick, one after another, before you get to the knockout stages and all the while, the pressure builds, the
2:11 pm
expectation builds, so to get to the final was such an achievement, but to fall at the last, such a disappointment as well. sam, as we talk, you are a writer for both the daily and sunday telegraph, but it is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes. is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes, i was an england _ is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes, i was an england fan _ is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes, i was an england fan a _ is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes, i was an england fan a long - is tough being a fan, isn't it? yes i was an england fan a long time before i was a journalist and i still am and i think it means so much for this team to all english people, just as all the home nations teams due to them. we as a nation feel a little bit homesick about, the joke is always feel a little bit homesick about, thejoke is always it feel a little bit homesick about, the joke is always it is the team everyone had a trial for, because few make it through to that elite level. it represents grassroots football as well as the best premier league clubs. when you look at the national team, you are taking the temperature of the game in that country and the kind of players that
2:12 pm
it is producing all the way down to the league is that our children play in. so it is a really important thing and i think that is why it provokes such emotions in people and why the pressure of playing for it is so great. the england team that eventually wins the trophy, and there will be won one day, will be immortalised in the way that the 1966 team were and are and i truly believe that they are going in the right direction. unfortunately, only one team can win it, there will be 31 nations that are disappointed with their euros, but i think we put a lot of pressure on these guys, and i don't know if they are still coming off the plane now... we “ust saw a momentfi coming off the plane now... we “ust saw a moment or i coming off the plane now... we “ust saw a moment or so i coming off the plane now... we “ust saw a moment or so ago i coming off the plane now... wejust saw a moment or so ago anthony i saw a moment or so ago anthony gordon and players coming down as i'm talking to you now, but it is interesting, and it must be weighed for these players because they have been together for such a long time in the build—up, but presumably they
2:13 pm
nowjust in the build—up, but presumably they now just disperse and in the build—up, but presumably they nowjust disperse and get home just in time to see on the television the open top bus is taught that the spanish team will have in madrid in the coming hours.— the coming hours. yes, i imagine. the are the coming hours. yes, i imagine. they are getting — the coming hours. yes, i imagine. they are getting quite _ the coming hours. yes, i imagine. they are getting quite used - the coming hours. yes, i imagine. they are getting quite used to - the coming hours. yes, i imagine. they are getting quite used to it i the coming hours. yes, i imagine. | they are getting quite used to it in spain, they have an incredible run of spanish clubs. 0bviously real madrid, they are running champions league finals, it is astonishing as well. i think the players themselves will be off on holiday, we work our elite footballers very hard, i know they are in a lot of money and they are reminded of that on a daily basis, but most premier league clubs are already in their pre—season, so they are probably only going to be able to afford these guys two, three, three .5 weeks off before they have to come back in. even when they have to come back in. even when they are on their holidays, they will have to keep some sort of residual fitness. will have to keep some sort of residualfitness. it will have to keep some sort of residual fitness. it won't be a holiday like the type you and i have
2:14 pm
where we are relaxing and so on, it is a very different world for them. they work for their money and a lot of them are very conscious of the fact they are playing more and more games, so we are going into a new season now where for the best players in the champions league, that competition has been expanded, there are now eight group stage games. this time next year, there will be a fifa club world cup which will be a fifa club world cup which will be a fifa club world cup which will be 32 teams i pretty much the same schedule we have seen of the euros and premier league teams in that. fit. euros and premier league teams in that. �* . . ., euros and premier league teams in that. .., , euros and premier league teams in that. n . ., that. a clutch of players coming down, that. a clutch of players coming down. cole _ that. a clutch of players coming down, cole palmer, _ that. a clutch of players coming down, cole palmer, ollie - that. a clutch of players coming l down, cole palmer, ollie watkins down, cole palmer, 0llie watkins coming through. you mentioned... conor gallagher there. you were mentioning the amount of games we push our top players, do you think that explains in part, when you look to the group stages, denmark, slovenia, it looked really comfortable but they struggled
2:15 pm
there, before you answer, a pretty glum —looking harry kane going into the arrivals area. really tough for him, because still as a player he has yet to win any sort of trophy. yes, he has had a glorious career in terms of his goal scoring, tottenham's greatest ever goal—scorer, he scored 44 goals for bayern munich last season, his england record now is at 66. when you think that bobby charlton was on a 49 for seven years, he is way beyond that. it could be a generation before anyone beats him, but he has never won a single trophy in the game and that is football, he has played in six finals now and lost them all. he hasn't scored in any of them either. that will play on his mind and unfortunately that is the way football goes and i think sometimes for some players, we would say at the same withjimmy sometimes for some players, we would say at the same with jimmy greaves who was pound for pound england's greatest ever goal—scorer, sometimes
2:16 pm
the biggest games of your career arrive at the wrong time and it was certainly the case for greaves in the summer of 66 and i would say the same fur cane. but the summer of 66 and i would say the same fur cane-— same fur cane. but for a cut on his knee, same fur cane. but for a cut on his knee. jimmy _ same fur cane. but for a cut on his knee, jimmy greaves _ same fur cane. but for a cut on his knee, jimmy greaves would - same fur cane. but for a cut on his knee, jimmy greaves would have i knee, jimmy greaves would have played in that semifinal and final. let me ask you a final thought, phil foden coming down the stairs, the group stage looked comfortable but at different stages they struggled, it was only that last kick they got through slovakia, why do you think that so many different stages of the euros they did seem to struggle? i don't want to make excuses for them, but these players do play a lot of games. i would also say as a nation, we tend to look at sides like slovenia and serbia in denmark and say he is a walkover is, they are not, they are sophisticated in their own way. they might not have the kind of players playing at the level
2:17 pm
we do, they certainly have some on all of those teams, and they are very well coached and organised and they are difficult to break down. i know england only win one of those games, but often the goals come late. you will see it in fa cup third round tie, a really good well organised lower league team. i'm not going to argue england's football was sparkling in all those games, but i do feel sometimes we have a view that we should just swap teams aside and that is not realistic in a modern era where there are excellent teams playing at all sorts of levels and for them as well, they are proud to represent their country, these are huge events for them and some of these players have really exceeded themselves for these nations. sam. these players have really exceeded themselves for these nations. sam, i think “ust themselves for these nations. sam, i thinkjust about _ themselves for these nations. sam, i thinkjust about all— themselves for these nations. sam, i thinkjust about all the _ themselves for these nations. sam, i thinkjust about all the players - themselves for these nations. sam, i thinkjust about all the players are i think just about all the players are off the plane it so i will let you get away. thank you for being with me over the last half an hour or so
2:18 pm
and giving us a perspective because you have been there throughout this tournament and the other tournaments, you have covered and it is really interesting hearing your reflections over the last few weeks and everything that happened last night. that is sam wallace from the daily and sunday telegraph talking to me. let's go to stansted for a final word with ali price. she is outside the airport and as we see jude bellingham getting off the plane, ellie, they are at home without the trophy, and the millions watching, this is not what they imagine. 0llie watkins talking about manifesting that goal but that is not what millions manifested. ida. manifesting that goal but that is not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant _ not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to _ not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to be _ not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to be like _ not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to be like this - not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to be like this and - not what millions manifested. no, it wasn't meant to be like this and as l wasn't meant to be like this and as you say, most of the team have now come off that aeroplane, that's very plain aeroplane, except for a black tail, it seemed very low—key which reflects the low—key return they have had back to england. 0ff
2:19 pm
reflects the low—key return they have had back to england. off the plane, gareth southgate got off first, read into that what you well, some saying it is an example of him leading from the front, many discussions about who would get off first because of course there will be photographers there and it is obviously being filmed because we can see those pictures, the moment they get off, the symbolism if you like of who got our first and the look on theirfaces like of who got our first and the look on their faces as they were coming down those steps. harry kane head down, not exactly looking terribly excited to be back. it was not the homecoming they were hoping for either. as the players come off that plane. i think they are going through a private entrance through the airport, they don't come back to a homecoming, to that open top bus parade that you might have expected had they won micro. i have taken my umbrella down, at least it has stopped raining but it is not a jubilant return for the england team. , . ., ,, ., , team. ellie price there at stansted, thank ou team. ellie price there at stansted, thank you very _ team. ellie price there at stansted, thank you very much _ team. ellie price there at stansted, thank you very much for _ team. ellie price there at stansted, thank you very much for being - team. ellie price there at stansted, thank you very much for being with | thank you very much for being with us through the dreary weather but
2:20 pm
good to see the pictures of the players arriving back there at stansted. more from the euros here on bbc news a little later in our programme. let's pretend that breaking news. —— return to that breaking news. spanish police say they have found human remains, as part of their search for teenager jay slater in tenerife. the 19—year—old, from lancashire, has not been heard from since going missing on the 17th june. spanish authorities say while a formal identification needs to take place, "all evidence suggests" the remains are those of jay slater. let's speak to our madrid correspondent guy hedgecoe. i read out a couple of sentences there from the police but what else have they been saying? the there from the police but what else have they been saying?— have they been saying? the civil tuards have they been saying? the civil guards police — have they been saying? the civil guards police force _ have they been saying? the civil guards police force said - have they been saying? the civil guards police force said they - have they been saying? the civil guards police force said they are mounting —— that their mountain rescue unit found the remains of
2:21 pm
what they believe is this young man earlier on this morning in the north—west of tenerife in the area of masca and they said that all evidence suggested this was indeed jay slater. part of that evidence seems to be the location where the body was found because that area, masca, is exactly where jay slater disappeared onjune 17. masca, is exactly where jay slater disappeared onjune17. they also said it appeared that the person they had found, the body they had found, had suffered an accident or a fall and that was because they found it at the bottom of a drop or crevice of some kind. this is an area of the island that has a lot of cliffs and drops and in some ways it is inhospitable, especially for such purposes. the police said an autopsy
2:22 pm
will take place, but meanwhile they cannot confirm the identity of the body that they have found. just to remind people _ body that they have found. just to remind people watching _ body that they have found. just to remind people watching in - body that they have found. just to remind people watching in terms | body that they have found. just to l remind people watching in terms of the last sighting, where this 19—year—old had been and give me an idea in terms of where this discovery has been made in relation to that. jar; discovery has been made in relation to that. , ,, ., , , discovery has been made in relation to that. , ,, ., ,, ., to that. jay slater went missing on june 17, to that. jay slater went missing on june 17. this _ to that. jay slater went missing on june 17, this was _ to that. jay slater went missing on june 17, this was the _ to that. jay slater went missing on june 17, this was the morning - to that. jay slater went missing onj june 17, this was the morning after he had been out to a music festival in a such a different parts of the island to where he was staying north—west of the island. he returned to his accommodation in the north—west of the island in this area of masca which is this mountainous volcanic area of the island, quite remote, but there is a town the, and he was spotted early in the morning, relatively early in the morning, and a woman is believed
2:23 pm
to have been the last person who saw him and she said the time a bus was about to come past, she was giving him some information about that even though he didn't speak spanish. a friend of his did receive a phone call from him at some point that morning where he said the battery on his phone was very low, he did not have any water left and he was lost. that was the last sighting, last sign that the authorities had of him. after that, the police embarked on what they said was an exhaustive search of that area. pare on what they said was an exhaustive search of that area.— search of that area. are you getting any indication _ search of that area. are you getting any indication in _ search of that area. are you getting any indication in terms _ search of that area. are you getting any indication in terms of— search of that area. are you getting any indication in terms of any - search of that area. are you getting any indication in terms of any sort l any indication in terms of any sort of timeline on the formal identification?— of timeline on the formal identification? ., ., �* ., identification? no, we don't have that information _ identification? no, we don't have that information yet. _ identification? no, we don't have that information yet. the - that information yet. the information from the police

throughout this investigation has been fairly minimal, again with the information we have been given today it is fairly basic, they are just saying they are awaiting the outcome of the autopsy and so they hope they will be able to identify the body after that takes place.— will be able to identify the body after that takes place. thanks very much. lets me pause from that and return to the euros. i want to show you the live pictures coming to us from madrid. there it is, the european championship trophy coming down the steps in madrid and not stansted that we were watching only a short while ago. the victorious spain team and managers and officials disembarking in exactly the sort of way resort with england squad, but they have done it. what an
2:25 pm
extraordinary tournament they had, winning all of their games right from the beginning of the group stage, as the players disembark and a little later they will be on an open top bus going through the streets of the capital, they will meet the king a little later, triumphant scenes there. all the photographers exactly as you would expect there to take the first images of a manager, captain and trophy. this is the real combination of morata's career, dispatching the likes of germany, italy, the real big beasts before doing the same to england last night. they played with such flair and without any sort of nerves, it seems, from the youngest of their players, that 17—year—old
2:26 pm
that may do so many headlines, lamine yamal through. he didn't score last night, but had been terrorising teams, and it was nip and tuck in different parts of the game last night but spain from the beginning looking the stronger side and coming out in the end winners 2-1. the and coming out in the end winners 2—1. the left back coming down there who had such a great game, the vital second goal. but not the sort of jubilation that perhaps you might have expected. no punching the air, just a quiet, professional determination, getting thejob done. it was really interesting talking to spanish journalists yesterday who talked about there wasn't a huge amount of optimism going into the
2:27 pm
tournament, they hadn't been playing well, but it was probably the polar opposite to how we do it in england where there is so much hype and excitement and then of course when england started playing a site sort of pores and people had to think this is not quite what we expected, it was the exact reverse for spain, because when i started playing, they really turned it on right from the beginning. —— when they started playing. their coach again at pretty understated, but at every stage, finding solutions, losing absolutely central players along the way but bringing in others and finding a way to win the euros and quite comfortably in the end. it was a scene of hugejoy comfortably in the end. it was a scene of huge joy in the stadium last night with so many spanish supporters absolutely enjoying every
2:28 pm
second of it. it wasn't quite like the dutch england game where there were so many netherlands supporters in the stadium, pretty split yesterday with pretty much equal amount of spanish and english supporters, but let me put this sound up actually. they chant a little bit of singing, a little bit of punching the air, but that is for all of those waiting press photographers, another round of snaps being taken with the wider team. huge squad of players, support staff, all absolutely integral to
2:29 pm
all of the squads for the various countries taking part. there it is, the camera is focused on the trophy. that is what they were all battling for, that is what harry kane and gareth southgate were hoping to get their hands on. i was watching the pictures yesterday and i don't think any of them even touched the trophy as they walked past it before it was actually given to spain's captain there in the stadium and that is normally how it goes. the disappointment means that those players walk straight past it. this bunch, they didn't, they get to lift it aloft and those are the pictures there at madrid. i was saying a little earlier, they are expected a little earlier, they are expected a little later to get onto an open top bus to drive through the streets of madrid to meet the king a little later and they will be fantastic pictures, so along the way through the course of this afternoon we will return to madrid and bring you the latest from there. hello there. it's been a much better
2:30 pm
day today. parts of england with some sunshine and much drier weather. low pressure brought the rain over the weekend moving away but there's another one coming in, this time into the south—west. that's been bringing the cloud northwards and taking me northwards as well. but ahead of that we seem temperatures getting into the low 205 in the north—east of england and also to the central belt of scotland. it's cooler towards the south—west where we've seen most of the rain so far. that rain will continue to push its way northwards overnight and there may well be some thunderstorms and there across eastern parts of england. a few showers for southern scotland, still damp weather in the north of the country, dry of northern ireland and southern parts of the cable turned violator that rain moves northwards. it will be a warm and night and it was last night. we start with rain across wales and parts of northern england. just tend to move away. petering out. sunshine in many areas and we will see some sharp showers may be developing over the pennines down to the midlands with a risk of
2:31 pm
some thunderstorms cease in scotland in the north—east of england. temperature wise typical at 19—20 and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. 0ne and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. one area of low pressure moving away bringing the rain today and clearing away tomorrow and then high pressure building on it time for wednesday and some much—needed dry weatherfor much the country would sunshine after a cooler start. the head of rain coming to the far north—west they could be one or two showers western scotland over pennines in north wales but we are looking at a generally drier day and one the day temperatures getting up to 23 or 24 degrees in eastern parts of england and wednesday. we will start to see these weather fronts bringing some rain into the north—west late on in the week but with higher pressure in the week but with higher pressure in the southeast this is where we are going to hang on to the normal warm air and that gentle southerly breeze for a bit longer and temperatures will continue to rise into thursday and perhaps friday as well. warmth
2:32 pm
concentrated in the south—east and we are likely to reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. it has been that cool and for some places that wet, as well. we start the week with this heavy rain but as the week with this heavy rain but as the week with this heavy rain but as the week goes on things will turn to warm up with emotion he concentrated on the south—east. —— with most of the heat concentrated on the south—east. turning to the us, donald trump has arrived in the us, donald trump has arrived in the walkie a day after surviving an assassination attempt. he is there to attend the republican national convention where he will be formally confirmed as patty's candidate in the presidential election in november. these are live pictures from the arena there where donald trump will deliver his convention speech, when he says he is completely rewriting in the light of that attack. he says he will now call for national unity
2:33 pm
rather than targeting president biden plasma policies. donald trump and joe biden have both said america needs to come together in the aftermath of the shooting. donald trump said he considered delaying the trip after the assassination attempt but he could not allow shooter, he said, to force a change in his schedule. the fbi says the attacker was acting alone using illegally purchased ar style rifle —— a legally purchased. it was after the 24—year—old shooter was shocked at the scene. the former president has been giving a series of newspaper interviews where he has been absolutely clear saying he's lucky to be alive. yeah, that's right — saying he's lucky to be alive. yeah, that's right and _ saying he's lucky to be alive. yeah, that's right and in _ saying he's lucky to be alive. yeah, that's right and in these _ saying he's lucky to be alive. yeah, that's right and in these interviews | that's right and in these interviews of these reporters were with donald trump right on the plane from milwaukee and him making clear that he feels if he hadn't turned his
2:34 pm
head in the right moment that he could have been killed, him saying he was supposed to be dead. even invoking divine intervention we know of course he has a big base of evangelical supporters, of course he has a big base of evangelicalsupporters, him of course he has a big base of evangelical supporters, him saying that he believes it was either look or by god that he was saved. but donald trump certainly understanding, i think, donald trump certainly understanding, ithink, matthew, this historic moment and how this is absolutely not only change the country but of course realistically changed the political campaign since he seeks a return to the white house so he has very much changed is turned talking about unity in the country. he appears to be betting that by tamping down and trying to appear less tribal and turn the temperature down on political talks that he can appeal to more americans, those undecided voters, small numbers they are. so we await
2:35 pm
a potentially see if we will hear from donald trump here in milwaukee before his big formal acceptance speech on thursday. but no doubt the tone he has changed. a5 speech on thursday. but no doubt the tone he has changed. as my colleague nomia iqbal reports, it's something thatjoe biden the president has also been calling for, unity. take a look. ., ., ., , look. 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 will 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. the president biden, who is under huge scrutiny over his ability to run, took the moment call on americans to settle their differences by voting, by violence. we can't allow this violence to be normalised. you know, the political

2:38 pm
of different us media hearing from their sources in law enforcement. this latest report from nbc is saying that the secret service was aware that that building, that rooftop was a security vulnerability before the event at the valley. —— rally. now questions are being asked about why it wasn't far more secure if they had raised that potential threat. keep in mind we have also heard from the associated press that a local police officer had gone up the ladder and had confronted the suspect. the suspected aimed their rifle at the officer and then he retreated. now, that has prompted local police to insist that it is the secret service that ultimately has the role of securing former presidents, the president, whoever they are assigned to protect, and that it
2:39 pm
they are assigned to protect, and thatitis they are assigned to protect, and that it is their real kind of security layer of which other agencies just contribute and assist as needed. so, matthew, ithink we're going to be hearing about this in the coming days. wejust had a secret service director herself who says she has enhanced donald trump as work security moving forward. she has responded tojoe biden's request and also looking forward to hearing here and enhance it. that is the key concern moving forward, but with the failures on how to address them. aside from all of course multiple questions being asked there at the convention it is, of course, a changed script that donald donald trump will deliver. we were expecting to actually find out who his vice presidential pick was going to be this week. as arsenal on the cards after everything racing? yeah, there's a real _ cards after everything racing? yeah, there's a real mood _ cards after everything racing? yeah, there's a real mood here _ cards after everything racing? yeah, there's a real mood here ever- cards after everything racing? yeah, there's a real mood here ever again |
2:40 pm
there's a real mood here ever again just how unprecedented, unpredictable this whole election year has been where donald trump is going from peril to pageantryjust two days and it's put a bit? 0n the programme, notjust the tone but the nuts and bolts of the business here because in 2016 donald trump announced his vp running mate three days before the convention. the air here we are on day one there every we would finally know what that would be announced today potentially. no update on that. given donald trump appears to have appeared in public yet it seems he would want to speak to voters before he moved on to that business of announcing... but again that is just speculation i guess we do have to wait and see with more details coming out about the exact schedule. of course there's a moment when we of course there's a moment when we will have that roll call. 21 state delegates will go in alphabetical
2:41 pm
order pledging their allegiance to donald trump. it is of course a formality but it is one of the iconic moments of these conventions. he is there in milwaukee one anticipates because the formal speeches a few days away but one anticipates that when there are microphones, camera crews, he will talk, presumably, at some stage today? talk, presumably, at some stage toda ? ., , ., talk, presumably, at some stage toda ? ., ., ., , talk, presumably, at some stage toda? ., ., ., today? yeah, you already have some of his surrogates _ today? yeah, you already have some of his surrogates going _ today? yeah, you already have some of his surrogates going on _ today? yeah, you already have some of his surrogates going on air- today? yeah, you already have some of his surrogates going on air and - of his surrogates going on air and saying they suspect he may make a statement today, matthew. i mean, remember, he didn't want to delay arriving here. he didn't want to change his plans, he wanted to be here. so we are kind of keeping our eyes closely on his movement. he is at a hotel not far from this location, the hotel where he arrived last night. i can tell you people here are extremely anxious to hear from him and we can expect a very
2:42 pm
kind of raucous environment here at the convention because as we saw in nomia iqbal is report republicans really feel that they are in a position of real strength here. conventions are meant to galvanise the base but it's the fact that donald trump dodged a bullet that has galvanised them so much. it won't be hard to get this crowd excited, there of course they are shaken by what happened. they do see it as re—energising his campaign. not at all that, thanks we can turn to the investigation. the fbi has named the gunmen is 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. this messages from his graduation ceremony. he's lived an hours drive from the sight of that rally in the small town of bethel park in the town of pennsylvania from where our colleague tom bateman sent this
2:43 pm
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 this street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel, you know, as far as i trusted... 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 was 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 have been here through the night, and a key question for them will be over any motive and whether crooks's politics played any role.
2:44 pm
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. tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania.
2:45 pm
all the very latest in the convention, every aspect of the investigation as well, the very latest from all of our teams in the reaction here ever since those events over 36 hours ago. david lammy is on his first visit to the middle east as foreign secretary, and has today called for an immediate ceasefire in gaza during talks with israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu. 0ur correspondent injerusalem, barbara plett usher, discusses how this might impact negotiations. it's also important for the uk labour government to set out its policy calling for an immediate ceasefire rather than pause but finally is unlikely to make a large
2:46 pm
amount of difference. 0ne finally is unlikely to make a large amount of difference. one reason for that for that is that britain is not involved in the ceasefire talks. that's qatar, egypt and the united states. they've been working on a deal that would release the hostages and in the fighting in phases. another reason for that is the position of the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. he has repeatedly made public statements in which he says he is opposed to any deal that would bring an end to the war but he done so in ways that was because some israeli officials of accusing him to try to sabotage the talks. for political reasons, it is widely believed, because his right—wing coalition partners have said they would pull out of the coalition of the war ended and he recently added to new conditions which negotiators said would make it more difficult for hamas to agree to and so it is unclear now where the clock stand. police in the uk have charged a man with two counts of murder after human remains were discovered in suitcases at clifton suspension
2:47 pm
bridge. defendants appeared listening intently to proceedings if his spanish interpreter. we didn't really hear much detail of the serious allegations against him other than the prosecution alleging he did kill his two victims, which had resided at the address, scotts road, in west london in shepherd's bush. the metropolitan police had said in the run—up to this case that the arrested person had lived at that address for a short while but this is not the format, not the forum to go into those allegations. everybody being innocent until proven guilty. put simply, the charges were too serious for magistrates' court to hear so us would be expected with any note the case, no matter what the scenario, this case has been sent to the crown court on that court will have jurisdiction to decide what happens in this case the defendant. weight

2:53 pm
100% win rate in the european championship. that's never been done before. i mean, that's usually remarkable and as you rightly say they did so with style, pizzazz and flair and it was fun to watch and it was entertaining and i think they've become so diverse in the way in which they can play now which is a big allusion from the team 10—15 years ago which was more about the possession game on short passes and tiki—taka style. now they can be direct, come into the middle, play the long game, the short game, that you with a counterattack. they have so much resources of the bench as well and substitutions are been on point. so much depth on the bench and he have wonderful like for like changes and can really turn things around the ties that they have gone behind they've managed to come back in terms of favouring what they were after so it was great overall, i have to say. after so it was great overall, i have to say-— after so it was great overall, i have to sa . ., ., ~ ., ,, , have to say. looking at the spanish coals we have to say. looking at the spanish

2:56 pm
far. but then will continue to push its way northwards overnight and then they will be some thunderstorms across eastern parts of england, a few showers for southern scotland and all that damp weather in the north of the country. should be dry for northern ireland and southern parts of the uk will turn to violators that rain moves northwards. it will be a warmer night than it was last night. we will start with this rain across wales and parts of northern england. it does tend to move away, petering out there will be some sunshine developing in many areas but we'll see some sharp showers may be developing over the pennines, down for the midlands, the risk of some thunderstorms great in northern scotland and north—east england. temperature wise very similar to those of today typically around 19-20 those of today typically around 19—20 and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. we have got one area of low pressure moving away a little clearer way tomorrow and then high pressure will build on in time for wednesday and some much—needed dry weather for much of the country with some sunshine of a cooler start. ahead of some rain
2:57 pm
coming into the far north—west could have been some parts of the pennines warmer and drier, 24 degrees in eastern parts of england on wednesday. we will start to see weather fronts bringing wednesday. we will start to see weatherfronts bringing rain into the north—west later on in the week but with higher pressure in the southeast this is where were going to hang onto the warm air and that gentle southerly breeze for a bit longer and to purchase will continue to rise into thursday and perhaps friday as well, warmth concentrated in the south—east and we are likely to reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. it has been that pool and for some places that wet, as well. we start the week with this heavy rain but as the week goes on things will turn to warm up with most of the heat concentrated in the south—east.

3:02 pm
statement, the british charity lbt global, which looks for brits missing overseas, has said lbt global is sad to announce the body found in tenerife does look to be that of jay slater. it was found close to the sight of his mobile phone's last location, although the formal dedication is yet to be carried out, it was found with his possessions and clothes and a postmortem inquiry will follow. they have expressed their condolences for the family, who as i say were told earlier this morning.— the family, who as i say were told earlier this morning. remind me how the search has _ earlier this morning. remind me how the search has progressed, _ earlier this morning. remind me how the search has progressed, the - the search has progressed, the original search was called off? that is ritht, original search was called off? that is right. there _ original search was called off? that is right, there has _ original search was called off? “i“isgt is right, there has been controversy over the work of spanish police and the civil search team. back on the 17th june, mr the civil search team. back on the 17thjune, mr slater left the civil search team. back on the 17th june, mr slater left some friends he had made's 17thjune, mr slater left some friends he had made's home 17th june, mr slater left some friends he had made's home that he met at a nightclub, he missed a bus to go back to where he was staying with friends, he set off on a walk
3:03 pm
and not sure if he knew quite the length of that war, it is said to be some ten hours. he phoned one of the friends he travelled to tenerife with to say he was lost in a rugged area and only had 1% left on his mobile phone battery. that is the last that he was heard from, he was not seen after he left that very small little village on this walk. the alarm was raised, police began searching for him and the civil guard continued the search with drones, dogs, a helicopter, but then the news was on the 30th ofjune, the news was on the 30th ofjune, the civil guard had called off the search but said the case remained open and there were several lines of investigation. throughout this, the family have been very public calling for help and support. social media has really gone quite wild on this story, based in positive ways and negative with disinformation that has hindered the search. the family
3:04 pm
put out a crowd funder and just engaged a dutch search team, they were paying them some £52,000 to go back to a more in—depth search because they hadn't given up hope that their son might be found. just a tuick that their son might be found. just a quick final _ that their son might be found. just a quick final word in terms of formal identification. are we expecting that in the next little while? ~ , ., ., while? we believe the formal identification, _ while? we believe the formal identification, from _ while? we believe the formal identification, from what - while? we believe the formal. identification, from what officers here and british police, former offices of the met have been saying in the last hour that it probably will be in the next few hours that that identification process will take place. as we say, his possessions, clothes, mobile phone were found where this body has been found, so whilst not confirmed, it seems that the family and the organisations, the charity as i mentioned lbt global, working with them and assume this is now him. vincent, thanks very much. i want to turn to breaking news just coming to us from the us, because we
3:05 pm
are hearing in the last few minutes it is being reported by reuters and the afp that a us judge in florida has dismissed the classified documents cases against donald trump. 0f documents cases against donald trump. of course, there are a number of legal cases in jeopardy facing the former president, but this, remember, is to do with those classified documents taken from the white house. they were found at mar—a—lago and you will remember the pictures because the police search is there at the trump residents, they were found in boxes, in the bathroom, shower area, and you can see in terms of the photographs taken, the classified nature of some of those documents, but word is just coming into us that a usjudge in florida has dismissed the classified documents case. we wait to see on the grounds of what, but a really
3:06 pm
significant bit of news coming into us, because this of course the case that was against the former president. he had been asked to return those documents by the archive. he had refused, he had not done that, and hence those charges ultimately brought against the former president. but that case has been mired with difficulty along the way, butjust this news coming into us that the us judge in way, butjust this news coming into us that the usjudge in florida has dismissed that classified documents case against donald trump. it was unlikely to be heard before the november election but it was one of those key cases, four cases you will remember, that donald trump was facing. this is one of them and those charges and case apparently thrown out, we are hearing in the last few minutes. we will get the latest on that all here on bbc news
3:07 pm
in the next little while. donald trump has arrived in milwaukee, a day after surviving an assassination attempt. he's there to attend the republican national convention, where he'll be formally confirmed as his party's candidate for the presidential election in november. let me show you the pictures from milwaukee. this is the arena in milwaukee where mr trump will deliver his convention speech, one he says said he's completely re—written in the light of the attack. he says he will now call for national unity, rather than targeting president biden's policies. mr trump and joe biden have both said america needs to come together in the aftermath of the shooting. mr trump said he considered delaying the trip after that assassination attempt, but he could not allow a "shooter" to force a change in his schedule. the fbi says the attacker was acting alone, using a legally purchased ar—style rifle. it was recovered after 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks was shot dead at the scene.
3:08 pm
0ur north america correspondent nomia iqbal has been talking to people in milwaukee who are planning to go to the republican national convention, and sent this report. 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
3:09 pm
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. 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.
3:10 pm
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. more from the convention in a moment. but first, more about the investigation. the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. this footage is from his graduation ceremony. he lived an hour's drive from the site of the rally, in the small town of bethel park in pennsylvania, 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...?
3:11 pm
he's on this street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel, you know, as far as i trusted... 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 was 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 have been here through the night, and a key question for them will be over any motive and whether crooks's 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.
3:12 pm
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. tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. we can speak now to former special assistant to donald trump, andrew giuliani. welcome to bbc news. i was watching
3:13 pm
one of former secret service agent saying the former president was within a hair's breath of disaster, has it sunk into you what we saw over 36 hours? i has it sunk into you what we saw over 36 hours?— has it sunk into you what we saw over 36 hours? i don't even think it has et. over 36 hours? i don't even think it has yet- and _ over 36 hours? i don't even think it has yet. and when _ over 36 hours? i don't even think it has yet. and when you _ over 36 hours? i don't even think it has yet. and when you think - over 36 hours? i don't even think it has yet. and when you think about| has yet. and when you think about this, my time in the white house i have seen so many different plans of different events that the president would go to whether it is speeches, football games, college graduations, whatever it is, and the secret service generally looks at the high targets are mild, a mile and a half, up targets are mild, a mile and a half, up to three kilometres away. the fact you had a gunman who was 125 metres away from the president there, that is 30 times closer than there, that is 30 times closer than the longest shots that had ever been made, that is completely unacceptable and we need to get real answers from the secret service, from local pd, from the fbi, from
3:14 pm
homeland security about that. i spoke to president shot yesterday briefly and he amazingly was able to process it so well. —— president trump. he spoke about those who are fighting for their lives in critical condition and then start to talk about his vice presidential pick and what this week will look like and what this week will look like and what the speech will look like, so he is able compartmentalised is better than anyone i have seen. interesting e recount what the former president said to you, because he talked to journalists on the plane and he was crystal clear in his mind that he thinks i am supposed to be dead, that is the quota used. supposed to be dead, that is the quota used-— supposed to be dead, that is the quota used. yes, and i think that realisation _ quota used. yes, and i think that realisation has _ quota used. yes, and i think that realisation has hit _ quota used. yes, and i think that realisation has hit him. _ quota used. yes, and i think that realisation has hit him. it - quota used. yes, and i think that realisation has hit him. it is - realisation has hit him. it is amazing that you think we are talking about a millimetre or two, and if that but it was just a little further to the right, you and i are
3:15 pm
having a very different conversation right now and i can't imagine what thatis right now and i can't imagine what that is like, i can't imagine what that is like, i can't imagine what thatis that is like, i can't imagine what that is like, i can't imagine what that is like for the united states of america, for his family in those moments waiting to find out. as somebody who has been at over 100 rallies as a spectator, as a staffer, as a speaker at these rallies, i can tell you that it had to have been madness and chaos in those moments and i was trying to reach out to anybody who i knew he was there he was staffing him, knowing they were hiding for cover, trying to save the president in that moment. and i think when something like that happens, it is that close, you probably get a certain amount of clarity of purpose and i think that is probably what president trump has probably experienced now. i will]! probably experienced now. i will come onto _ probably experienced now. i will come onto the _ probably experienced now. i will come onto the ramifications in a moment, but you were talking about the questions that need to be
3:16 pm
answered. were reporting what the reuters news agency is exciting to nbc, these reports, i don't know if you have seen them, that the rooftop where the gunmen shot at donald trump was identified as a security vulnerability before the rally. if that turns out to be true, it is one of the absolutely central questions that as that congressional oversight committee says, americans demand answers. ~ , y committee says, americans demand answers. ~ , , ~ committee says, americans demand answers. ~ , ~ answers. absolutely. like i said, havin t answers. absolutely. like i said, having sat _ answers. absolutely. like i said, having sat through _ answers. absolutely. like i said, having sat through the _ answers. absolutely. like i said, having sat through the plans - answers. absolutely. like i said, having sat through the plans of i having sat through the plans of hundreds of these events, that would have been identified, that building would have been sterilised, and i don't care if that building would have been inside the security perimeter or outside, because one of the first things that secret service does when they set up the internal security perimeter as they start looking at high points outside that security perimeter and i can tell you that have been times where i have been at events where they have sterilised buildings, they have shut down buildings that were over a mile
3:17 pm
away on the other side of highways from where the president was going to be speaking or attending an event, or they have put up bullet—proof glass, so the fact that he got within, like i said, 125 metres, and then you can also see the eyewitness video that's for two or three minutes you had a gunman up there, there are major questions that need to be answered and these questions have ramifications not just for donald trump at his campaign, but also the biden campaign, but also the biden campaign, forthe campaign, but also the biden campaign, for the public defence they will be doing, and four other candidates as well. if we want our first moment to be practised here in the united states of america, we need to make sure the public is safe so we can have the debate we need to have in order to choose our best candidate. have in order to choose our best candidate-— candidate. this cuts across all tarties, candidate. this cuts across all parties. all — candidate. this cuts across all parties, all candidates. - candidate. this cuts across all parties, all candidates. let. candidate. this cuts across all| parties, all candidates. let me candidate. this cuts across all - parties, all candidates. let me try to ask you about what you think the discourse will be like in america going forward, because i read the
3:18 pm
veteran republican congressmen pete sessions saying after these events that i think donald trump should be for the fix, not the fight, and that is the words we saw from donald trump in the seconds after, he said fight, fight. how important is the tone and the words that donald trump uses when he finally addresses those crowds there in milwaukee? i uses when he finally addresses those crowds there in milwaukee?- crowds there in milwaukee? i think the tone of— crowds there in milwaukee? i think the tone of words _ crowds there in milwaukee? i think the tone of words are _ crowds there in milwaukee? i think the tone of words are very - the tone of words are very important. i thinkjoe biden deserves the same question, how can he five days for donald trump was shot say it is time to put him in the bull's—eye? had the roles been reversed in that scenario i think he would have had people yelling that donald trump incited an assassination, so i thinkjoe biden deserves the exact same questions. sure, but it cuts both ways but i will not go through all the
3:19 pm
different things that donald trump and republicans have said, because the point has been made many times in the last hours, but do you think it is realistic, even if the principal two candidates dial it down, do you think the surrogates, the others, as we progress through this campaign, will actually heed what people are currently saying? yes, i think so, but here is the thing, i don't want to use the word unity and replace that for evidence, we need to come to answers here and then that is how we can unify. answers first, what happened, what went wrong, let's get to the bottom of this and protect this, and then you can actually have cause to unify, but like you said, this has to go both ways and i've seen the immediate scrutiny on donald trump over the last three and a half years and i've not seen that the last three and a half years and i've not seen that be equal onjoe biden fairly. seen that be equal on joe biden fairl . ~ ., ., fairly. we have to live it there, thank you _ fairly. we have to live it there, thank you very _ fairly. we have to live it there, thank you very much _ fairly. we have to live it there, thank you very much for - fairly. we have to live it there, | thank you very much forjoining fairly. we have to live it there, i thank you very much forjoining us here on bbc news. let's head back to the convention. let's speak to our
3:20 pm
correspondent sumi somaskanda. interesting listening there to what mr giuliani was saying because he was talking about the speech that donald trump will make but also that we are expecting to hear that vice president pick from donald trump and it looks as if we will get that as planned. it looks as if we will get that as tlanned. ~ , , it looks as if we will get that as tlanned, “ , , it looks as if we will get that as tlanned. ~ , , , planned. absolutely. this has been one of the most _ planned. absolutely. this has been one of the most anticipated - one of the most anticipated questions at this convention is who will he pick to be on his ticket? all the more important after what we saw on saturday, just 48 hours ago, the assassination attempt at that rally in pennsylvania. there have been three people in the running until now, senator marco rubio, governor doug burgum and senatorjay de france and over the last few days we have been hearing more and more chatter that it looks like it is heading towards jd
3:21 pm
chatter that it looks like it is heading towardsjd vance. —— senator jd vance. he wrote a book that was seen as a remedy under way to understand the white working class in the us that were turning to donald trump. there were leaders around the world who read this book and at the time he condemned donald trump are then supported him after john 21. so we are not entirely sure yet if he will be the pick, but we spoke also to andrew giuliani and he says he has some information on that, he didn't share with us of course but we are anticipating we will find out that information today. that is all still up in the air, you have to keep in mind that a lot of the plans for this convention have of course changed in the aftermath of what happened. let me ask ou, aftermath of what happened. let me ask you. totally _ aftermath of what happened. let me ask you, totally aside _ aftermath of what happened. let me ask you, totally aside from _ aftermath of what happened. let me ask you, totally aside from all - aftermath of what happened. let me ask you, totally aside from all of - ask you, totally aside from all of that, news i wasjust ask you, totally aside from all of that, news i was just breaking a
3:22 pm
short while ago, significant news, let me remind viewers, because it is being widely reported that a us judge in florida has dismissed the classified documents case against donald trump and that is a huge win for the former president, isn't it? absolutely, and just to remind our viewers, many of them might have seen those photos taken as evidence of classified documents that he was accused of mishandling. we saw the images of classified documents at various places in mar—a—lago, donald trump's residents, and i want to bring in our correspondent who extensively covered the one case against donald trump that ended in a conviction which was the hush money case in new york, but matty was just saying, this is incredibly significant for donald trump because they have wanted to get this case dismissed from the very beginning and it had been slow walking up until this point and now the judge

gareth southgate, england's thousands of travelling fans, and millions watching at home. a wave goodbye from gareth southgate as his team left berlin to warm applause, but also deep disappointment for england. for england, the interminable wait goes on. their defeat to spain was their second in a row in a euros final, and the morning after the night before, it was still just as painful. it's a bit heartbreaking, isn't it? you just build up all your hopes, you just think there's history to be made. it's going to happen. but unfortunately, it ain't to be. what do you think should happen to gareth southgate now? i think it's time for a bit of a change. i do personally, yeah, i think, but he's done a greatjob. you can't fault him. he's done well. spain's 2—1win has prompted more questions about the manager's future. after eight years in charge and falling just short
3:29 pm
again, is it time to go? i totally understand the question and understand you need to ask it, but i need to have those conversations with important people behind the scenes. and i'm obviously not going to discuss that publicly first. well, england'sjourney at these euros has certainly been an eventful one. they arrived here as one of the tournament favourites, but once again, it's a case of so near yet so far. helped on. and it's in! and england have certainly given us some magical moments here. here we go. a perfect penalty shoot out. trent takes the net off! and a last gasp winner. watkins turns, watkins scores! but getting that all—important trophy remains as elusive as ever. andy swiss, bbc news, berlin. let's speak to our correspondent, ellie price, at stansted airport. we were talking about the gloomy scenes and we were watching the
3:30 pm
players there walk past the trophy and they are now back home and walking down those stairs without coming home with that championship trophy. it is a real anti—climax, isn't it? it trophy. it is a real anti-climax, isn't it? ., , , ~ isn't it? it really is, ithink there is— isn't it? it really is, ithink there is a— isn't it? it really is, ithink there is a real _ isn't it? it really is, ithink there is a real sense - isn't it? it really is, ithink there is a real sense of. isn't it? it really is, i think. there is a real sense of what isn't it? it really is, i think- there is a real sense of what could have been. the fact we have tracked the england team coming back, there was a helicopter to get those shots, photographers here at stansted, a cameraman filming them getting off the plane. necessary pictures of course for them in their defeat, but all of that arranged on the basis that just all of that arranged on the basis thatjust maybe they could have won and they could have been coming back to a homecoming. all of that will now not happen. a5 to a homecoming. all of that will now not happen. as you say, the atmosphere here at stansted, a bit like the weather, a bit subdued, although it hasn't stopped raining and you saw those pictures of gareth southgate leading his team off that plane, heads down. —— it has stopped raining. all those players getting off the plane individually, they were processed through the arrivals
3:31 pm
department here at the airport and then went off individually in cars on their own, a real marked difference to the sense of team we had all the way through the tournament. it is notjust the players who have come through here, i have also spoken to returning fans. a flight back from berlin around lunchtime, i spoke to a few of the fans there, very dejected and miserable —looking. a number of them are talking about how close they have been, one or close to tears, theyjust hoped that england could win it for his babies as he told me, but it wasn't to be. although a number of them said they spent their time and money getting out to berlin but it was worth it for the atmosphere. not sure if the player is necessarily agree, but two goes to the next big tournament, the world cup in two years' time. let's speak to frida fagerlund, who is a journalist for swedish
3:32 pm
paper sportbladet, she's also an england fan. i think ithink i'm i think i'm right in saying that you were there in the stadium. iugfhat i think i'm right in saying that you were there in the stadium. what did ou make were there in the stadium. what did you make of — were there in the stadium. what did you make of how— were there in the stadium. what did you make of how it _ were there in the stadium. what did you make of how it panned - were there in the stadium. what did you make of how it panned out? - were there in the stadium. what did i you make of how it panned out? well, it is obviously — you make of how it panned out? well, it is obviously going _ you make of how it panned out? well, it is obviously going to _ you make of how it panned out? -ii it is obviously going to hurt for england but at the same time, spain were the better team throughout this tournament. they were unbelievable in terms of their style of play, teams that they beat through the way, so i don't think that england can be that upset about losing although i do obviously understand that when you've spent five weeks and you prepare for this tournament for so long, you don't want a full short. ~ �* , , for so long, you don't want a full short. �* , , �*, short. we've “ust seen spain's toals, short. we've “ust seen spain's goats. the — short. we've just seen spain's goals, the first _ short. we've just seen spain's goals, the first and _ short. we've just seen spain's goals, the first and then - short. we've just seen spain's goals, the first and then that l short. we've just seen spain's i goals, the first and then that late half break goal that came just a couple of minutes from the end and there was really no way back for england. it was really interesting watching the weeks, though, because
3:33 pm
spain came into the competition i don't think massively favourites and a lot of people pointing to france but bit by bit once they got going it was evident that they were really the form side. england started all the form side. england started all the way, didn't they? == the form side. england started all the way, didn't they? -- stuttered all the way- _ the way, didn't they? -- stuttered all the way. spain _ the way, didn't they? -- stuttered all the way. spain have _ the way, didn't they? -- stuttered all the way. spain have definitely. all the way. spain have definitely been a big surprise in this tournament and it is fascinating to see a spain team play because you can know is tell that it spain. it's not exactly the same style of play that they had at the euros in 2008 in the world cup in 2010 but there's just something about it that is very much spain is like their�*s identity anything you can say the same for the women's team who won the world cup last summer and for england i think that's what's been lacking. there hasn't really been a pattern of play and hasn't really been that identity. it's been a bunch of great
3:34 pm
individuals trying to play football together so i think that's mainly what is lacking of england in the tournament. aha, what is lacking of england in the tournament.— what is lacking of england in the tournament. �* ., ., , , ., tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis — tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis of _ tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis of why _ tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis of why the _ tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis of why the bit - tournament. a lot of people sharing that analysis of why the bit parts i that analysis of why the bit parts didn't come to something greater. it's interesting because he watched england at many major tournaments and the narrative again is a broad bunch of youngsters in two years' time who are well set and you hear that they just rinse time who are well set and you hear that theyjust rinse and repeat, don't we? , that theyjust rinse and repeat, don't we?— that theyjust rinse and repeat, don't we? , ., , , don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southtate don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each — don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each side _ don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each side of _ don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each side of the _ don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each side of the study - don't we? yes, we do, because gareth southgate each side of the study for i southgate each side of the study for the france head coach to try and understand how human the tournament and obviously that works very well for france at the world cup in 2018 but at the same time now spain has proven that you actually can win a tournament by playing great football so i think in a way that many objective or useful is fans were quite pleased spain winning away because it's always great when you
3:35 pm
can actually watch great football again spain just surprised everyone on rate cut at the same time i don't think we have that many superstars, apart from one who was obviously the best player of the tournament. thank ou for best player of the tournament. thank you for being — best player of the tournament. thank you for being here _ best player of the tournament. thank you for being here with _ best player of the tournament. thank you for being here with us _ best player of the tournament. thank you for being here with us on - bbc�*s quitting fox news reporter saying that reporter has told him donald trump says he will announce his vice presidential pick later today. —— bbc has received a line from a fox news reporter. two lines about going ahead. we were anticipating at the start of the convention that were going to happen but then all the events this weekend without an attempted assassination but certainly a fox news reporter
3:36 pm
quoted as talking to donald trump saying that announcement will be made a little later today so we'll keep our eyes across that and get any latest information from milwaukee to you. let's stay with those events over the weekend because donald trump has now arrived in milwaukee to attend that republican national convention, where he'll be firmly confirmed as his party's candidate for the presidential election in november —— formally confirmed. the former president said he would consider delaying the trip after the attempt to assassinate him on saturday but he could not allow a shooter, he said, to force a change in a schedule. so, how did this attempt against donald trump's life unfold and why wasn't he better protected? 0ur and why wasn't he better protected? our team at bbc verify has been piecing together videos, eyewitness testimony and satellite imagery from the rally in pennsylvania.
3:37 pm
she verify has examined videos night when it's testimony to build a detailed picture ofjust the secret service had to stop this government. 0n service had to stop this government. on saturday night, donald trump was speaking at a campaign event in the city but live in pennsylvania. he took to the stage a campaign event in the city but live in pennsylvania. he took to the stage at three minutes past six. there were fans full of —— stands full of supporters behind them and two pairs of snipers on separate roofs. 0utside of snipers on separate roofs. outside the venue, the gunmen was 130 metres away from where trump stood. then it nine minutes past six you can hear the person in this video pointing out the government and saying someone's on top of the reef and zooms in on the shooter lying down. this next video was filmed ten minutes past six. we know this because we can hear the word intron's speech in the background and they sync with the timing of other videos of the same events. the
3:38 pm
smaller building on the right is the one that the gunmen was on and we see a man talking to what appears to be a police officer here. and they are looking at the buildings. ap news agency quoted an anonymous official say a police officer climb to the roof and encountered the shooter who pointed his rifle at the officer. the officer then retreated down a ladder. soon after, this video was full by the member of the public that shows the government as he opened fire. take a look at what happened. shots, trump raises his hand to his and docks. there are more shots. 0ne hand to his and docks. there are more shots. one person in the cloud is killed and two critically injured. in this video shows a man who was injured. we have cross—referenced this with other videos. we know that this was taken on the stand next to the right of the stage and that is consistent with a shot being fired from the roof towards trump. the secret
3:39 pm
service neutralise the shooter. this video shows a person motionless on the roof of the building. 0n the stage secret service agent sounded donald trump before moving him off the stage to move them up as a tear, as you say. now, we to focus. investigation into the incident is likely to focus on whether more could have been done to prevent the government. could the valley, had been stopped earlier? county sheriff has admitted it was spotted outside a security perimeter before trump started speaking and they had identified him as a suspicious person. he said officials had momentarily lost track of the suspect. we have a clearer picture of how this attempted assassination played out the big questions remained over the security operation. world leaders continue to express their shock at those events over the weekend with the killing of —— attempted killing of donald trump. president zelensky of ukraine
3:40 pm
said it was a time the demonstrated serious challenges to democracy around the world. in israel, prime minister benjamin netanyahu wore a red tie in solidarity with donald trump and said the shooting amounted to an attempt to assassinate us democracy. children's king abdullah says he is deeply shocked and outraged by the he must attempt on the former us president's life during the critical rally. jordan condemns this vicious attack and all kind of political violence. let's get more with james landale, a diplomatic respondent who is here in the student. james, universal, that the student. james, universal, that the condemnation we have seen in the absence? —— here in the studio. if you just imagine that world leaders, for all their political differences of a small, elite club who all know what it's like to be a leader. for man of what it's like to be a leader. for many of them. _ what it's like to be a leader. fr?“ many of them, they will be a personal most private response. there but for the grace of god go i. because, as we have seen, assassinations and assassination attempts to take place from time to
3:41 pm
die so i think most of them will be thinking rightly, that could have been me. in a second felt, a lot of them in their responses have been saying this is an attack on democracy. we had it for mr netanyahu and others making that point saying they think democracy should be about debate and discussion and shouldn't be about violence. that's a noble ambition but actually history tells us that democracy like many other systems of government has political violence against its leadership from time to time, not least in the united states where they lost four presidents, no less, in a very short space of time to assassination. weight it is not just the us, as a? result is events in slovakia injapan and exactly as you are saying, that resonates because so often these politicians... their�*s an element of vulnerability when you're out campaigning, isn't there? the nature of democracy is when you expose yourself to the electorate as much as you possibly can which is why there were so many concerns just before the uk election with a scale
3:42 pm
of the violence that might take place and we have seen just how much intimidation individual members face but clearly if you have a political leader and you are trying to win the election you have to do rallies. most of the valley is a highly secure but, inevitably, there is always going to be an element of risk and that is something i think many leaders he will be thinking, crikey, what we're going to have to do ourselves to keep ourselves safe. at the same time, that niggling little bit of worry and what worries them really about what is going to take place is the risk to stability because obviously the united states is the most powerful country in the world and if political violence escalates there some people have saying that, you know, one inch away from civil war, faces like that. that's something that worries the world, notjust the united states. in that final point, it is an open

3:44 pm
intensity, the idea that every trump supporter will be a trump voter on election day, and you can't say the same about biden voters. the trump voters are motivated and biden voters are motivated and biden voters are motivated and biden voters are dispirited and that her no difference that may be 1% — 2% is enough to change the outcome of this election, particularly in the key swing states of pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan, and you get a 1-2% wisconsin and michigan, and you get a 1—2% to her differential and you change the outcome, you change history as we know it. i change the outcome, you change history as we know it.— change the outcome, you change history as we know it. i know that this is your _ history as we know it. i know that this is your whole _ history as we know it. i know that this is your whole area _ history as we know it. i know that this is your whole area of - history as we know it. i know that this is your whole area of work i history as we know it. i know that| this is your whole area of work but what you base that percentage figure on, that 1% — 2% bump. how do you arrive at that is your best estimation?— arrive at that is your best estimation? ~ ., , ., , estimation? we have been doing focus trou ts now estimation? we have been doing focus groups now in — estimation? we have been doing focus groups now in every — estimation? we have been doing focus groups now in every single _ estimation? we have been doing focus groups now in every single week - estimation? we have been doing focus groups now in every single week for i groups now in every single week for the last two years and they have probably moderated more sessions with more voters than any human being on the face of the earth so when you sit down with 10—15,000
3:45 pm
people and you are doing so every single day, 30, 40 people a day, every you start to get to know what their patterns are, get to know what their patterns are, get to know what their feelings and, their patterns are, get to know what theirfeelings and, in their patterns are, get to know what their feelings and, in the end, it's a projection. it's a prognosis. but that's what we have to do and that's what they are going to have to do when someone says what is the likely outcome i have nobody switching their vote but what i have absolutely found as a percentage of trump voters that won the election today that are agitated and angry and can't wait to express their point of view and they were not this way before the events of saturdays so that's why i think the turner differential will be meaningful and measurable. i differential will be meaningful and measurable-— measurable. i was asking our diplomatic— measurable. i was asking our diplomatic correspondent - measurable. i was asking our diplomatic correspondent the question about is it realistic to talk about dialling down the nature of the us political debate? maybe
3:46 pm
you can with donald trump and joe biden but you have all the surrogates, all the lawmakers, all the supporters. in terms of voters, do you think it's realistic to think we can shift from what currently is the position to something better? it's notjust realistic, it has to happen, and i hope all sides accountable, which upsets both sides. the language that came out of donald trump quite often during the campaign incites this level of passion, this level of demanding change and being intolerant towards the point of view and joe biden has been using the same kind of language increasingly in his speeches and in his public appearances. they both have to do this and, in fact, i am prepared to say that the language from trump, if he really does adopt this privacy of unity, bringing
3:47 pm
people together, following the decibels level, that's what he said on thursday night. the convention will be disappointed. his most ardent supporters will be disappointed. but that would guarantee him the election because that's the issue that the remaining undecided voters are focused on. is donald trump's persona as appropriate for another term because they support his policies but they're concerned about him as a person? and joe biden's case, he has to demonstrate his convention that he's got the energy in the action and the passion to continue to make changes and continue to make government more efficient, more affected are more accountable. i'm not sure either candidate can do it but if either candidate does, that's their election. when a fan, let me ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms of _
3:48 pm
ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms ofjoe — ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms ofjoe biden _ ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms ofjoe biden weight - ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms ofjoe biden weight the i in terms ofjoe biden weight the focus possibly, totally un—from trump. a5 of the talk about potentially replacing him gone away? are things to turbulent for democrats now to pursue any source of entertainment of that idea? the idea has of entertainment of that idea? i““i2 idea has taken second stage. in fact, in the last 48 hours, and i'm talking to democratic congressmen and senators, democratic party leaders and critically democratic donors, nobody is saying anything since saturday. it's as though that conversation has not happened. it will start again, make no mistake. it will start again a week from now. but i don't think it will have the same intensity stop when you have this level of chaos and confusion, one is looking for stability and security and that is something that joe biden does offer the democrats. when that final thought because it's happened in the last hour or so. i know that you just got off a flight

said and it's been reported on the afp news agency that all the court cases against him should be dismissed. so that's the first reaction of donald trump for this classified documents case was thrown in florida. great to tuck she was always amazing use. like some your time. —— thanks so much for your time. police have charged a man with two counts of murder, after human remains were discovered in suitcases at bristol's clifton suspension bridge. from wimbledon magistrates' court, our correspondent sean dilley sent this report. the defendant appeared on wimbledon magistrates' court webbing and all grey tracksuit listening intently to proceedings though his spanish interpreter. a5 proceedings though his spanish interpreter. as you would expect in foam for these things we didn't really hear much detail of the serious allegations against him other than the prosecution alleging he did kill his two victims, albert

3:52 pm
making the healthy choice the easy choice. the message from the welsh labour government in another drive to tackle obesity. its latest plans would see new restrictions brought in on foods high in fat, sugar and salt. the conservatives have called the plans nanny state and over the top, but labour says 60% of the population are overweight or obese. these proposals would ban big retailers and restaurants from offering free drink refills to customers. they would also put a stop to certain promotions, such as buy—one—get—one—free and multibuy deals on some food and drinks, like cakes, biscuits, pizzas and ready meals. and there will also be restrictions on where these types of food and drinks and snacks can be placed, like at the front of stores, end of aisles and at checkouts. any retailers found to be breaking the rules could be fined £2,500. these people in wrexham say there should be more incentives to eat healthier foods, too. when you look at healthy food options, they generally cost more than it is for you to eat not healthy.
3:53 pm
food that's bad for you is cheaper than food that's good for you, so if they were to put these things in place, i suppose people would be more encouraged to buy healthier food. you know, you can make a delicious meal with vegetables. _ you know, a nice roast dinner, a nice family dinner, _ and it doesn't have to be expensive. i think it would force me to eat healthy foods actually, so i think it's better. it might! similar plans in england that were announced in 2020 have been delayed until next year, while a consultation in scotland closed in spring. in wales, the government previously announced proposals to restrict meal deal promotions, but no final decision has been made. the public can have their say on this consultation until september. lauren moss, bbc news. full weather forecast here in a moment— full weather forecast here in a moment will squeeze one more story in. a new art exhibition is on its way from kent to the caribbean, to be displayed under the ocean. this report from ian palmer contains some flashing images.
3:54 pm
jason decaires taylor among his creations destined for the sea. the 30 sculptures and the boats they stand in took eight months to make. so, the piece is talking about how climate change affects small island nations. so, carriacou, where the sculptures are heading to, is a very small island, obviously in the caribbean and its really subject to the effects of climate change. so increased hurricanes have a massive impact, rising seas. warming seas, you know, are very detrimental. seeing how the texture changes, how the colour changes, the forms, just seeing something that was once so inert come alive. i think that's what really fascinates me. decaires taylor has made more than a thousand sculptures. he's founded five underwater museums. but his latest project was particularly difficult. each vessel is made from japanese marine stainless steel.
3:55 pm
the artist had to buy a cutting machine to carry out the task. we also had to laser—cut a lot of the metal to allow creatures to be able to inhabit the structure. coming closer the full screen as that. schoolchildren from carriacou and petit martinique are the models for the sculptures. the boats are inspired by island history and culture. art is not meant to be that hard, surely? i mean, why on earth do you do this? i think everything's really complicated when you actually look into the process of things. you know, mine is probably a little bit more complicated because there's so many elements, but you look at any public sculpture, there's a lot of planning, consultation, engineering, materials, community consultation. there's all sorts of factors that people don't realise go into the work.
3:56 pm
some of his work is made for dry land, but the kent artist will always be known for his love of the ocean's ecosystem and what we need to do to preserve it. ian palmer, bbc news. amazing pictures. headlines here in a moment or two. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello, there. it's been a much better day today across north—eastern parts of england with some sunshine and much drier weather. the low pressure that brought the rain over the weekend, that's been moving away, but there's another one coming in, this time into the south—west. that's been bringing the cloud northwards and taking rain northwards as well. but ahead of that, we've seen temperatures getting into the low 205 in the north—east of england and also through the central belt of scotland. it's cooler towards the south—west where we've seen most of the rain so far. but that rain will continue to push its way northwards overnight and there may well be some thunderstorms in there across some eastern parts of england,
3:57 pm
a few showers for southern scotland, still that damp weather in the north of the country. it should be drier for northern ireland. and southern parts of the uk will turn drier later as that rain moves northwards. it will be a warmer night than it was last night. we will start with this rain, though, across wales and parts of northern england. it does tend to move away, petering out. there'll be some sunshine developing in many areas but we will see some sharp showers, maybe developing over the pennines, down through the midlands, the risk of some thunderstorms greater in eastern scotland and the north—east of england. temperature—wise very similar to those of today — typically around 19—20 degrees — and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. now, we have got one area of low pressure then moving away that's bringing the rain today. that will clear away tomorrow and then high pressure will build in in time for wednesday and some much—needed dry weather for much of the country, with some sunshine after a cooler start. now, ahead of some rain coming into the far north—west, there could be one or two showers in western scotland, over the pennines, perhaps north wales, but we're looking at a generally drier day and a warmer day as well, those temperatures getting up to 23 or 24 degrees in eastern parts
3:58 pm
of england on wednesday. now, we will start to see these weatherfronts bring in some rain into the north—west later on in the week, but with higher pressure in the south—east, this is where we're going to hang onto the warm air and that gentle southerly breeze for a bit longer. and temperatures will continue to rise into thursday and perhaps friday as well, the warmth concentrated in the south—east and we are likely to reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. it has been that cool. and for some places that wet, as well. and we start the week with this heavy rain, but as the week goes on things will tend to warm up with most of the heat concentrated in the south—east.

4:00 pm
0ur players have been incredible, they have given everybody some incredible nights. they couldn't have given any more. the victorious spanish team celebrated and posed with the trophy on the runway in madrid. hello and welcome to bbc news. we start this hour with news that spanish police say they have found human remains, as part of their search for teenager jay slater in tenerife. the 19—year—old, from lancashire, has not been heard from since going missing on the 17th june. spanish authorities say while a formal identification needs to take place, "all evidence suggests" the remains are those of jay slater. earlier, i spoke with our correspondent vincent mcaviney
4:01 pm
to tell us more about the statement released by the police. we now understand that jay slater�*s family were told of these events this morning before the police released this statement to the media. that statement confirms that a body was found in the area where jay slater went missing back on june 17th. no autopsy has been conducted, no formal identification, but the statement says all indications are that it could be the young british man who disappeared. he is believed to have potentially fallen or had an accident and tumbled into an inaccessible area where he has been found in the masca area. this area was heavily searched in the past months, but it is very steep, very inaccessible, it is said to be for very experienced hikers,
4:02 pm
and now the work, we understand, has begun to formally identify that body which will take several hours. in a statement, the british charity lbt global, which looks for brits missing overseas, has said lbt global is saddened to announce the body found in tenerife does look to be that of jay slater. it is understood the body was found close to the sight of his mobile phone's last location, although the formal examination is yet to be carried out, was found with his possessions and clothes and a postmortem inquiry will follow. straight to breaking news concerning the king and queen, because they are injersey. let me tell you the latest that has come in, the press association reporting this in the last few minutes that the king and queen were pulled away from their expo engagement injersey because of
4:03 pm
a false alarm. queen camilla was apparently eating an ice cream when apparently eating an ice cream when a member of the royal contingent whispered something into her ear. both she and king charles were pulled away and taken to a nearby hotel. apparently it is understood a member of the visit team raised a concern and after an investigation it turned out to be a false alarm. a full background check was then carried out and the programme then resumed shortly afterwards, butjust a false alarm there on that trip, the king and queen injersey, and expo engagement. we hope to bring you the pictures of exactly what i am describing here on bbc news in the next little while, we will talk to teams who are there on that trip. false alarm with the king and queen being pulled away from the exhibition they were at after something was whispered into queen camilla's ear. after full investigations, it appears that did
4:04 pm
turn out to be a false alarm and the programme has resumed. that's news just coming into us in the last few moments. when we have more and the pictures we will obviously show them to you. donald trump has arrived in milwaukee, a day after surviving an assassination attempt. he's there to attend the republican national convention, where he'll be formally confirmed as his party's candidate for the presidential election in november. this is the arena in milwaukee where mr trump will deliver his convention speech, one he says said he's completely rewritten in the light of the attack. he says he will now call for national unity, rather than targeting president biden's policies. donald trump and joe biden have both said america needs to come together in the aftermath of the shooting. donald trump said he considered delaying the trip after the assassination attempt, but he could not allow a "shooter" to force a change in his schedule. the fbi says the attacker was acting
4:05 pm
alone, using a legally purchased weapon. it was recovered after 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks was shot dead at the scene. let me tell you the development of the last hour or so. ajudge in the united states has dismissed a criminal case against donald trump which accused him of holding on to classified documents. the florida—based judge, who was nominated by mr trump while he was the president, said the leader of the prosecution was unlawfully appointed and lacked the authority to bring the case. donald trump, on his truth social platform, called for all court cases against him to be dropped. it is the second high—profile ruling in trump's favour this month after the supreme court ruled he had immunity from prosecution for many of his actions while in office. those are some of the latest developments. 0ur north america correspondent nomia iqbal has been talking to people in milwaukee
4:06 pm
who are planning to go to the republican national convention, and sent this report. 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,
4:07 pm
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. 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
4:08 pm
changed presidential race. nomia iqbal, bbc news, wisconsin. let's get more on the investigation. the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. this footage is from his graduation ceremony. he lived an hour's drive from the site of the rally, in the small town of bethel park in pennsylvania, 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 this street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel, you know, as far as i trusted...
4:09 pm
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 was 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 have been here through the night, and a key question for them will be over any motive and whether crooks's 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
4:10 pm
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. tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. let me take you to the live pictures inside the convention centre, because we are still waiting for the bulk of the delegates, but all the additional security taking place. we will talk to my colleague in a
4:11 pm
couple of minutes' time he was there for us. one of the key areas that we are talking about is whether we will get donald trump speaking to cameras today, outside as he arrives there, but it's also whether we will hear who his vice president pick will be. that was expected this week, then the events of this weekend, but there was one report i was reading half an hour ago, a reporter saying he had spoken to donald trump and that announcement will be made a little later today. that is the scene very much a set and we will talk to our colleagues and team there at the convention centre here on the programme in a moment or two. that gives me time to turn to the euros, away from milwaukee, if we come away from those pictures. the england team have arrived back to the uk, their plane touching down at stansted airport over an hour ago.
4:12 pm
manager gareth southgate was among the first to depart the plane to a grey and gloomy england. he was followed by a subdued squad. a late goal from spain dashed the three lions' hopes of european championship victory, with disappointment for manager gareth southgate, england's thousands of travelling fans, and millions watching at home. here is andy swiss. a wave goodbye from gareth southgate as his team left berlin to warm applause, but also deep disappointment. for england, the interminable wait goes oh _ their defeat to spain was their second in a row in a euros final, and the morning after the night before, it was still just as painful. it's a bit heartbreaking, isn't it? you just build up all your hopes, you just think there's history to be made, it's going to happen, but unfortunately, it ain't to be. what do you think should happen to gareth southgate now?
4:13 pm
i think it's time for a bit of a change, i do, personally, yeah. but he's done a greatjob. you can't fault him. he's done well as well as we could expect, i'd say. cucurella gets it back in! certainly, spain's 2—1win has prompted more questions about the manager's future. after eight years in charge and falling just short again, is it time to go? i totally understand the question and understand you need to ask it, but i need to have those conversations with important people behind the scenes. and i'm obviously not going to discuss that publicly first. well, england'sjourney at these euros has certainly been an eventful one. they arrived here as one of the tournament favourites, but once again, it's a case of so near yet so far. helped on. and it's in! and england have certainly given us some magical moments here. here we go. a perfect penalty shoot—out. trent takes the net off! and a last—gasp winner. watkins turns, watkins scores!
4:14 pm
but getting that all—important trophy remains as elusive as ever. andy swiss, bbc news, berlin. fascinating watching the faces of the players as they walked past the trophy, exactly the same as they came down the steps when they arrived back at stansted and there are too with our correspondent ellie. , ., ., , , ., are too with our correspondent ellie. ., , , ., ., ellie. there is a real sense of what could have — ellie. there is a real sense of what could have been. _ ellie. there is a real sense of what could have been. the _ ellie. there is a real sense of what could have been. the fact - ellie. there is a real sense of what could have been. the fact we - ellie. there is a real sense of what i could have been. the fact we tracked the england team, there was a helicopter to get those shots, there was photographers, cameramen filming them getting off the plane. necessary pictures for them in their defeat but all of that arranged on the basis that may be, just maybe, they could have won and come back to something of a homecoming. 0f they could have won and come back to something of a homecoming. of course all of that will now not happen. a5 all of that will now not happen. as you say, the atmosphere here at stansted a bit like the weather, a bit subdued, although it has stopped
4:15 pm
raining and he saw those pictures of gareth southgate leading his team off that plane, heads down, it was drizzling, and all of those players getting off the plane individually, they were then processed through the arrivals department here at the airport and then all went off individually in cars on their own. a real marked difference at the sense of team we had all the way through the tournament. it is notjust the players who have come through here today, i have also spoken to returning fans, there was a flight back from berlin around lunchtime, i spoke to a few of the fans there, very dejected and miserable looking. a number of them talking about how close it had been, how disappointed they were. 0ne looked close to tears and just hoped that england could win it for his babies, as he told me, but of course it wasn't to be. a number of them said they spent the time and money getting out to berlin but it was worth it for the atmosphere. i'm not sure whether the players necessarily agree but there
4:16 pm
are two years now until the next big tournament, the world cup in two years' time. tournament, the world cup in two years' time-— tournament, the world cup in two years' time. that was ellie price at stansted. let's _ years' time. that was ellie price at stansted. let's rewind. _ last night fans across england gathered in living rooms, fan parks and their local pubs, to watch as the match unfolded. 0ur correspondentjoe inwood was with them. it has been a roller—coaster for england fans. from hope to desperation, to a final. andy and nish have been on thatjourney. i had my own negativity about southgate, but honestly, i take it all back. he is the man for us, he's done thejob. i think he's going to take us to bring it home. there we are, the final is under way. 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 would be better. rodri is off, their best player. andy, always the optimist, was hopeful for about eight seconds.
4:17 pm
how are you feeling? it will come home. not great. at that point, mid—interview, spain havejust scored. we scored first last time and we lost. we concede this time, we're going to win. come on! and he was partly right. a moment ofjoy shared around the country. cheering things were looking up and then, for some reason, i decided
4:18 pm
to interview andy again. now i think... again. stop filming. it's done again. oh, no. i may well be the curse but i'm also the hope. we are going to still win this. there is still five minutes on the clock, we've got extra time. come on, england. we are going to do this. we are going 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 it's mine. i'm so sorry. every time you were filming, they scored! would you like to apologise to everyone? to the british public, i'm genuinely... i'm gutted. i apologise with all my heart and,
4:19 pm
yeah, never, neverfilm me when england are playing in the finalagain, basically, is all can say. it was of course not andy's fault. this has been a memorable tournament for england fans and what it lacked in results, it more than made up for in emotion. joe inwood, bbc news, brixton. let me extend the pain. i will show you the pictures from madrid of the spanish team a couple of hours ago arriving home and there is with a trophy at the critical part of what we saw last night because despite england's mixed fortunes, getting to the final for a second year in a row and the one hurdle that remained was to defeat to spain but they didn't.
4:20 pm
i think the pictures were shown at the punching in the air, the dancing, as the various pictures are taken which will adorn the spanish front pages and of course they have an open top bus tour in madrid in the coming hours and will meet the king as well, so all the things that perhaps they were hoping would be the scene for the england team will be played out in madrid. what a fabulous team, you can't deny they played brilliantly throughout the competition and really richly deserved winning the euros. let's speak to michelle coleman in middlesbrough who's an england fan and was in germany to watch england play switzerland and slovakia. welcome here to the programme. just as you were watching last night, did you feel it was just slipping away?
4:21 pm
yes, i think so. when we got the equaliser, i thought we all thought after the previous game going 1—0 down and going on to win on different days we may be thought it was our time and we would push on, but itjust wasn't meant was our time and we would push on, but it just wasn't meant to was our time and we would push on, but itjust wasn't meant to be again, was that? but it just wasn't meant to be again, was that?— but it just wasn't meant to be again, was that? but it just wasn't meant to be atain, was that? , ., ., ., again, was that? give me an idea of what it was — again, was that? give me an idea of what it was like, _ again, was that? give me an idea of what it was like, because _ again, was that? give me an idea of what it was like, because you - again, was that? give me an idea of what it was like, because you went i what it was like, because you went to germany a couple of times for those games, switzerland, slovakia, england didn't play well in those games, against slovakia they were at risk of going out. games, against slovakia they were at risk of going out-— risk of going out. yes, scraping throuth risk of going out. yes, scraping through those _ risk of going out. yes, scraping through those games _ risk of going out. yes, scraping through those games i - risk of going out. yes, scraping through those games i went. risk of going out. yes, scraping | through those games i went to, risk of going out. yes, scraping - through those games i went to, the result made the game feel like it was probably better than what it was, but it was just disheartening. i was at the final three years ago, and i honestly thought this time is different, but it is just the same old story again, isn't it? hath? different, but it isjust the same old story again, isn't it? why did ou think old story again, isn't it? why did you think it _ old story again, isn't it? why did you think it was _ old story again, isn't it? why did you think it was different - old story again, isn't it? why did you think it was different this i you think it was different this time? it was it simply because of the talent that gareth southgate, we
4:22 pm
are showing pictures of him there in the stadium, simply the talent he had at his disposal?— the stadium, simply the talent he had at his disposal? absolutely, and i think that had at his disposal? absolutely, and i think that hurt — had at his disposal? absolutely, and i think that hurt of _ had at his disposal? absolutely, and i think that hurt of three _ had at his disposal? absolutely, and i think that hurt of three years - i think that hurt of three years ago, if you use it in the right where you can use it to your advantage and i thought the players obviously three years later, they have done really well for the clubs and itjust felt like those moments like the bellingham goal against slovakia and the penalties, it felt like it was just meant to be, slovakia and the penalties, it felt like it wasjust meant to be, so slovakia and the penalties, it felt like it was just meant to be, so you get to the final and i think many of us were confident and felt like we could do it and for some reason it just felt a bit different but we are just felt a bit different but we are just here flat again. could have felt so different, we should be used to it by now. iastute felt so different, we should be used to it by now-— to it by now. we really should, we were seeing _ to it by now. we really should, we were seeing pictures _ to it by now. we really should, we were seeing pictures of _ to it by now. we really should, we| were seeing pictures of southgate, and interesting when you were there at the tournament he took so much flak early on about selections and substitutions and then it got a bit
4:23 pm
better, then a revival of the flak and the postmortems, do you think he should stay? this and the postmortems, do you think he should stay?— should stay? this is a really tough tuestion. should stay? this is a really tough question- i — should stay? this is a really tough question. i don't _ should stay? this is a really tough question. i don't want _ should stay? this is a really tough question. i don't want to - should stay? this is a really tough question. i don't want to sit - should stay? this is a really tough question. i don't want to sit on i should stay? this is a really tough | question. i don't want to sit on the fence too much because i think we really need to appreciate what he has done and where he has brought us, he has brought that togetherness and he has got the furthest than any other manager, but the result is still the same, we still haven't won a trophy. sometimes people can do a good job but there is still an end point to it, does he hand over? but the question is who would take over? i do think he needs to go, ijust think he should get a lot of appreciation for what he has done. but yes, he will take over? it is a big job, the criticism you get if it doesn't go right, but some of it may be as deserved and it has been a tough watch this tournament. michelle, we are seeing the pictures again of southgate arriving back home, glum faces. we were seeing the
4:24 pm
pictures of you when you are in germany, big smiles, so sadly that has been wiped off your face and the england team as well, just about, but thank you so much for taking time to speak to us the morning after, thank you. no problem, thank you. as promised, let us return to milwaukee, because donald trump due to arrive at the republican national convention a day after that attempted assassination and it also comes as a florida judge has dismissed the classified documents case against donald trump. you will remember dozens of classified files were found in donald trump's mar—a—lago resort in florida including in the shower, in a storage room after donald trump had left the white house in 2021. let's speak to our correspondent sumi somaskanda who's at the republican national convention in milwaukee. she is across the gatherings and this classified documents case.
4:25 pm
let's start with the documents given i havejust let's start with the documents given i have just been describing all of that for viewers. that is a big win for donald trump, isn't it? absolutely and on the first day of republican national convention, you can hear them practising behind me, the band, so i apologise for the audio, but absolutely this is landing like an earthquake, the classified documents case by many was seen as a straightforward but after donald trump left the white house he kept classified documents at mar—a—lago and refusing then to hand them back to authorities when asked. thejudge had allowed hearings on a motion by trump's team that the special counsel wasn't properly appointed and therefore the case should be dismissed. this came after the supreme court had really expanded presidential powers and
4:26 pm
immunity decision they made, so here we havejudge cannon agreeing with trump's legal team that the special counsel was unconstitutionally appointed, it is something thatjack smith has hit hard against, saying that immunity really has nothing to do with acts out of office, and i expect this will be appealed for sure by his team, but now donald trump is celebrating this as a massive win by hitting.- trump is celebrating this as a massive win by hitting. let's turn to what we _ massive win by hitting. let's turn to what we are _ massive win by hitting. let's turn to what we are seeing _ massive win by hitting. let's turn to what we are seeing there - massive win by hitting. let's turn to what we are seeing there at i massive win by hitting. let's turnl to what we are seeing there at the convention, very interesting in the last little while, just one more report suggesting that today will be the day that we learn that donald trump, who has vice president peck is likely to be, who are the names in the frames if it turns out to beat today? —— vice president pick. to give you an update, the chum
4:27 pm
campaign has been holding a press briefing here and they say we do have a name for the vp pick later this afternoon, the top three are the senator from ohio, this afternoon, the top three are the senatorfrom 0hio, jd this afternoon, the top three are the senator from ohio, jd vance, this afternoon, the top three are the senatorfrom 0hio, jd vance, he is friends with donald trump's elder son, the same kind of politics as donald trump, that brand of populism. he isjust one of donald trump, that brand of populism. he is just one of the three, others include the governor of north dakota doug burgum, one of the smaller states but he certainly has more governing experience than jd vance who has been in office less than two years. then there is marco rubio, the senatorfrom florida, cuban—american, catholic, and many say if donald trump is thinking about getting new supporters on and once somebody with a lot of foreign policy and governing experience, legislative experience, marco rubio would be the best to choose. donald
4:28 pm
trump of course, it is hard to tell where his priorities lie, but we will be finding out very shortly. thanks very much indeed, thank you. plenty more from there in a moment or two but ijust want plenty more from there in a moment or two but i just want to plenty more from there in a moment or two but ijust want to return to that breaking news of the last half hour, that royal news, because i said we were waiting for the pictures and we now have them. let me recap what has happened, because this is the event injersey, that you see queen camilla eating ice cream, but they were pulled away from this expo engagement because of a false alarm. that you see just the little whisper into the ear of the queen and then the world contingent west away, both queen camilla and king charles pulled away and taken to a nearby hotel after a security alert. it is understood a member of the visit team had raised a concern
4:29 pm
and there was then an investigation and there was then an investigation and it turned out to be a false alarm, there was a full background check and then a little while later the programme resumed. that you can see king charles, butjust an alert and these are the pictures of this incident that during that trip to jersey, the expo arrangement there. but as we say, it was a false alarm and that engagement has now resumed. you are watching bbc news, welcome if you have justjoined you are watching bbc news, welcome if you havejustjoined us, at the time here is around 4:30pm. 0ur if you havejustjoined us, at the time here is around 4:30pm. our main headlines. police in tenerife say they've found human remains in an area where british teenagerjay slater went missing a month ago. donald trump is in milwaukee to be confirmed as the republicans' presidential candidate, a day after a gunman tried to kill him.
4:30 pm

4:31 pm
they couldn't have given any more. in terms of their effort, their desire, their character. the victorious spanish team celebrated and posed with the trophy as they arrive home in madrid. more now on donald trump who has arrived in milwaukee to attend the republican national convention, where he'll be formally confirmed as his party's candidate for the presidential election in november. the former president said he considered delaying the trip after the attempt to assasinate him on saturday, but he could not allow a "shooter" to force a change in his schedule. at a rally in pennsylvania on saturday — with just over 24 hours to go before the convention — donald trump was grazed by a bullet fired from the rooftop of a nearby shed. the secret service coordinator for the convention said — her team was confident about the security plans for the event and was ready to go.
4:32 pm
so how did this attempt against donald trump's life unfold — and why was the former president not protected? our team at bbc verify has been piecing together videos, eyewitness testimony and satellite imagery from the rally in pennsylvania. here's merlyn thomas. we verified video that shows that nearly two minutes before the first gunshots were fired at donald trump, onlookers had noticed a man falling onlookers had noticed a man falling on top of a roof nearby. in this clip, you can hear them shouting to an officer and raising the alarm. bbc verify has examined videos of eyewitness testimony to build up a detailed picture ofjust how long the secret service had to stop this government. 0n the secret service had to stop this government. on saturday night, donald trump was speaking at a campaign event in the city of butler in pennsylvania. he entered the stage in three minutes past six. there were stands full of supporters behind him and two pairs of snipers in separate roofs about 45 metres
4:33 pm
apart. 0utside in separate roofs about 45 metres apart. outside the rally venue, the government was over 130 metres away from where trump stood. then a nine minutes past six, you can see the person in this video standing on top of the video pointing at the roof and think someone is on top of the roof. this next video was filmed at ten minutes past six and we know this because we can hear the words into's speech in the background and a sink with the timing of other videos of the same event. the smaller holding in the right is the one the government was on and we see a man talking to what appears to be a man talking to what appears to be a police officer here and they're looking at the buildings. the ap news agency quoted in a marvellous official who said a police officer had climbed to the roof and counted the shooter who pointed his rifle at the shooter who pointed his rifle at the office. they didn't have the office of the treaty down the ladder. soon after, this video was filmed by a member of the public that shows the government as he opened fire. that shows the government as he opened fire-—

sheriff office admitted the man was spotted outside the security perimeter before trump started speaking and they said they'd identified him as a suspicious person. they said officials then lost track of the suspect. we have a clearer picture of how this operation played out but big questions remain over the security operation. merlin thomas bbc verify. well for more on how saturday's assassination attempt on donald trump could impact voters in the run up to november's presidential election, i've been speaking to the pollster and politcal strategist frank luntz. he is posited that the event at the weekend would provide a boost in voters, to vote in november. i boost in voters, to vote in november-— boost in voters, to vote in november. , ., , ~ november. i don't see any american tradint the november. i don't see any american trading the point _ november. i don't see any american trading the point of _ november. i don't see any american trading the point of view _ november. i don't see any american trading the point of view about - november. i don't see any american trading the point of view about who i trading the point of view about who they're supporting because of the tragedy of saturday but i do see the intensity, the idea that every trump supporter will be a trump vote on election day and you can't say the same about biden voters. but trump voters are motivated and biden voters are motivated and biden voters are motivated and biden voters are dispirited and that turn out disbursements of maybe 1% or is
4:36 pm
enough to maybe change the outcome of this election, particularly in the key swing states of pennsylvania, wisconsin and which you can end you get a 1% — 2% earn a differential and you change the outcome, you change history as we know it. i outcome, you change history as we know it. ~ ., ., , , know it. i know that this is your whole area _ know it. i know that this is your whole area of— know it. i know that this is your whole area of work _ know it. i know that this is your whole area of work but - know it. i know that this is your whole area of work but what. know it. i know that this is your whole area of work but what do j know it. i know that this is your - whole area of work but what do you base that percentage figure on, at 1% - 2% base that percentage figure on, at 1% — 2% bump. how do you arrive at thatis 1% — 2% bump. how do you arrive at that is your best estimation? 1% - 2% bump. how do you arrive at that is your best estimation?- that is your best estimation? we've been doint that is your best estimation? we've been doing focus _ that is your best estimation? we've been doing focus groups _ that is your best estimation? we've been doing focus groups now- that is your best estimation? we've been doing focus groups now in - that is your best estimation? 22 been doing focus groups now in every single week for the last two years. i've probably moderated more sessions with more voters than any human being on the face of the earth so when you sit down with ten or 15,000 people and you're doing so every single day, 30, 40 people a day, every day, you start to get to know what their patterns are, get to know what their patterns are, get to know what their feelings and in the end it's a project objection. it's a prognosis. but that's what we have to do and that's i'm being asked to
4:37 pm
do. when someone says, what is the likely outcome, i have found nobody switching their vote but i have absolutely found a percentage of trump voters that won the election today that her agitated and angry and can't wait to express their point of view and they were not this way before the events of saturday so that's why the turnout differential will be meaningful and measurable. i was asking to correspond about is it realistic to talk about dialling down the nature of the us political debate. maybe you can with donald trump and joe biden but you have all the suburbans, over lawmakers, over supporters. in terms of voters commercially think it's realistic to think we can shift from what currently is the position something

4:39 pm
undecided voters are focused on. is donald trump's persona as appropriate for another term because they support his policies but they're concerned about him as a person and injoe biden is my case, he has to demonstrate to his conventionality got the energy and the action and the passion to continue to make changes and continue to make changes and continue to make government more efficient, more effective and more accountable. i'm not sure either candidate can do it but if either candidate can do it but if either candidate does, that's the election. frank, let me ask you to final questions. firstly, in terms ofjoe biden the focus on the last few days of silly, totally on the former president donald trump. —— totally, totally. has all of the talk about potentially replacing him gone away? are things to turbulence the democrats now to pursue any sort of entertainment of that idea? the idea

4:42 pm
their shock at the attempted killing of donald trump. president volodymyr zelensky of ukraine said it was a terrible crime that demonstrated the serious challenges to democracy around the world. in israel, the prime minister, benjamin netanyahu wore a red tie in solidarity with mr trump, and said the shooting amounted to an attempt to assassinate us democracy. earlier, i spoke with our diplomatic correspondent, james landale, to discuss that wider response, and the historical precedent of presidential assassinations. world readers in a small, elite club knowing what it's like to be a political leader of the many then they will be responsive there but for the grace of god go i n as we have seen assassinations and assassination attempts to take place from time to time to most leaders will be thinking crikey, that could have been me thought, a lot of saying this is an attack on democracy. we heard if mr netanyahu and others making the point that
4:43 pm
they think democracy should be about debate and discussion are not violence. that's a noble ambition actually history tells us democracy is, just like many other terms of government, has political violence against its leaderships from time to time, not least in the united states where they've lost four presidents, no less, in a very short space of time to assassination. but no less, in a very short space of time to assassination.— no less, in a very short space of time to assassination. but it's not “ust the time to assassination. but it's not just the us, _ time to assassination. but it's not just the us, isn't _ time to assassination. but it's not just the us, isn't it? _ time to assassination. but it's not just the us, isn't it? whistle - just the us, isn't it? whistle events in slovakia injapan and exactly as you are saying, that resonates because so often these politicians, there's an element of the mobility and you're out campaigning, isn't there? nature of democracy is _ campaigning, isn't there? nature of democracy is that _ campaigning, isn't there? nature of democracy is that you _ campaigning, isn't there? nature of democracy is that you expose - democracy is that you expose yourself to the electorate as much as you possibly can which is why there were so many concerns just before the recent uk election of the scale of violence that might take place and subsequently seen just how much intimidation of individual members face. clearly election you have to do rallies. most of the
4:44 pm
valleys are high that something that many leaders he will be thinking, crikey, what are we going to have to do ourselves to keep ourselves safe. at the same time, that niggling little bit of worry but what worries them really about what's going on in them really about what's going on in the united states is the risk to stability there because obviously united states is the powerful democracy in the world and if political violence escalates there, you know, some people have been saying one inch away from civil war, phrases like that, at something that worries the world, notjust the united states. in worries the world, not “ust the united statesfi worries the world, not “ust the united states. in the final point, it is an april— united states. in the final point, it is an april question _ united states. in the final point, it is an april question whether. united states. in the final point, i it is an april question whether the political discourse, language used, what were seeing can be dialled back? iathfe what were seeing can be dialled back? ~ ., �* ~ ., ., ., ., back? we don't know what motivated this individual— back? we don't know what motivated this individual to _ back? we don't know what motivated this individual to take _ back? we don't know what motivated this individual to take the _ back? we don't know what motivated this individual to take the action - this individual to take the action he did. what's interesting is some world leaders have been echoing some of the public a narrative saying actually this was something, and

morgan our correspondent on the next little while. a new search for the remains of a woman who was abducted and murdered more than 50 years ago has begun on farmland in hertfordshire. muriel mckay was kidnapped in 1969 by two men who made a million pound ransom demand, but they'd taken her by mistake when they meant to target anna murdoch — the then—wife of media mogul rupert murdoch. muriel�*s body has never been found. 0ur uk correspondent adina campbell. 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 had taken her by mistake and thought she was anna murdoch, the wife of media tycoon rupert murdoch. mrs mckay was the wife of alick
4:47 pm
mckay, rupert murdoch's deputy. she was then held ransom. 946256. and in this dramatic phone call, one of the kidnappers is heard asking her daughter diane for £1 million. now, you tell them they've gone too far. who do i tell has gone too far? tell them you gone to the police. who's gone too far? we've gone too far, i'm going to the police. you have to get a million pound, they have to get it. you've got to get a million, a million pounds, they have to get it. where do you get a million pounds from? i wouldn't know. well, i don't know, it's none of 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
4:48 pm
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 are going to dig, so this is, this is the building we have to pull down. muriel mckay's grandson has spent years trying to piece together what happened, and assisting police with their investigation. it is difficult not to get anxious and emotional, 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,
4:49 pm
it will be a disappointment, but it won't be unexpected. but without searching for something you are never going to find it. so we could have said this is ridiculous, she's not there, but we haven't dug behind the barn, no—one has 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. free refills on drinks could be banned in wales, as part of a government proposal to change the way food and drink that's high in fat, sugar and salt are promoted to shoppers. 0ur correspondent lauren moss has the details. making the healthy choice the easy choice. the message from the welsh labour government in another drive to tackle obesity. its latest plans would see new restrictions brought in on foods high in fat, sugar and salt. the conservatives have called the plans nanny state and over the top, but labour says 60% of the population are overweight or obese.
4:50 pm
these proposals would ban big retailers and restaurants from offering free drink refills to customers. they would also put a stop to certain promotions, such as buy—one—get—one—free and multibuy deals on some food and drinks, like cakes, biscuits, pizzas and ready meals. and there will also be restrictions on where these types of food and drinks and snacks can be placed, like at the front of stores, end of aisles and at checkouts. any retailers found to be breaking the rules could be fined £2,500. these people in wrexham say there should be more incentives to eat healthier foods, too. when you look at healthy food options, they generally cost more than it is for you to eat not healthy. food that's bad for you is cheaper than food that's good for you, so if they were to put these things in place, i suppose people would be more encouraged to buy healthier food. you know, you can make a delicious meal with vegetables. _
4:51 pm
you know, a nice roast dinner, a nice family dinner, _ and it doesn't have to be expensive. i think it would force me to eat healthy foods actually. yeah, probably would. so i think it's on the better side. yeah, it would be better. similar plans in england that were announced in 2020 have been delayed until next year, while a consultation in scotland closed in spring. in wales, the government previously announced proposals to restrict meal deal promotions, but no final decision's been made. the public can have their say on this consultation until september. lauren moss, bbc news. a new art exhibition is on its way from kent to the caribbean, to be displayed under the ocean. this report from ian palmer contains some flashing images. jason decaires taylor among his creations destined for the sea. the 30 sculptures and the boats they stand in took eight months to make. so, the piece is talking about how climate change affects small island nations.
4:52 pm
so, the piece is talking about how climate change affects small island nations. so, carriacou, where the sculptures are heading to, is a very small island, obviously in the caribbean and its really subject to the effects of climate change. so increased hurricanes have a massive impact, rising seas. warming seas, you know, are very detrimental. seeing how the texture changes, how the colour changes, the forms, just seeing something that was once so inert come alive. i think that's what really fascinates me. decaires taylor has made more than a thousand sculptures. he's founded five underwater museums. but his latest project was particularly difficult. each vessel is made from japanese marine stainless steel. the artist had to buy a cutting machine to carry out the task. we also had to laser—cut a lot of the metal to allow creatures to be able to inhabit the structure.
4:53 pm
coming closer, the full screen is that. schoolchildren from carriacou and petit martinique are the models for the sculptures. the boats are inspired by island history and culture. art is not meant to be that hard, surely? i mean, why on earth do you do this? i think everything's really complicated when you actually look into the process of things. you know, mine is probably a little bit more complicated because there's so many elements, but you look at any public sculpture, there's a lot of planning, consultation, engineering, materials, community consultation. there's all sorts of factors that people don't realise go into the work. some of his work is made for dry land, but the kent artist will always be known for his love of the ocean's ecosystem and what we need to do to preserve it. ian palmer, bbc news.

if you like those pictures you may not like the next set of pictures because the winners of the euros, spain, have arrived back home. captain, manager, team, squad, all they'll lined up, celebrating and posing with the trophy. i've also been talking to spanish sports journalist to give me her analysis of spain's record breaking triumph in berlin last night. i of spain's record breaking triumph in berlin last night.— in berlin last night. i have to say, the trin in berlin last night. i have to say, the grin has _ in berlin last night. i have to say, the grin has grown _ in berlin last night. i have to say, the grin has grown from - in berlin last night. i have to say, the grin has grown from ear - in berlin last night. i have to say, the grin has grown from ear to i in berlin last night. i have to say, | the grin has grown from ear to ear considering how things were done last night. we are absolutely thrilled, just so happy that we cannot just thrilled, just so happy that we cannotjust enjoy spanish football again in the men's team but also enjoy silverware after a 12 year wait if you don't count the nations leak from 2023 but, yes, wait if you don't count the nations leakfrom 2023 but, yes, very, very

4:56 pm
substitution and so much depth on the bench with wonderful like the light changes and the times they have gone behind they've managed to come back to favour what they were after so it was great overall, we have to say. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett hello, there. it's been a much better day today across north—eastern parts of england with some sunshine and much drier weather. the low pressure that brought the rain over the weekend, that's been moving away, but there's another one coming in, this time into the south—west. that's been bringing the cloud northwards and taking rain northwards as well. but ahead of that, we've seen temperatures getting into the low 205 in the north—east of england and also through the central belt of scotland. it's cooler towards the south—west where we've seen most of the rain so far. but that rain will continue to push its way northwards overnight and there may well be some thunderstorms in there across some eastern parts of england,
4:57 pm
a few showers for southern scotland, still that damp weather in the north of the country. it should be drier for northern ireland. and southern parts of the uk will turn drier later as that rain moves northwards. it will be a warmer night than it was last night. we will start with this rain, though, across wales and parts of northern england. it does tend to move away, petering out. there'll be some sunshine developing in many areas but we will see some sharp showers, maybe developing over the pennines, down through the midlands, the risk of some thunderstorms greater in eastern scotland and the north—east of england. temperature—wise very similar to those of today — typically around 19—20 degrees — and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. now, we have got one area of low pressure then moving away that's bringing the rain today. that will clear away tomorrow and then high pressure will build in in time for wednesday and some much—needed dry weather for much of the country, with some sunshine after a cooler start. now, ahead of some rain coming into the far north—west, there could be one or two showers in western scotland, over the pennines, perhaps north wales, but we're looking at a generally drier day and a warmer day as well, those temperatures getting up to 23
4:58 pm
or 24 degrees in eastern parts of england on wednesday. now, we will start to see these weatherfronts bring in some rain into the north—west later on in the week, but with higher pressure in the south—east, this is where we're going to hang onto the warm air and that gentle southerly breeze for a bit longer. and temperatures will continue to rise into thursday and perhaps friday as well, the warmth concentrated in the south—east and we are likely to reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. it has been that cool. and for some places that wet, as well. and we start the week with this heavy rain, but as the week goes on things will tend to warm up with most of the heat concentrated in the south—east.

0ur north america correspondent, nomia iqbal, has been talking to people in milwaukee who are planning to go to the republican national convention, and sent this report. 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
5:06 pm
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. 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
5:07 pm
changed presidential race. nomia iqbal, bbc news, wisconsin. the fbi has named the gunman as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. this footage is from his graduation ceremony. he lived an hour's drive from the site of the rally, in the small town of bethel park in pennsylvania — 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 this street? yeah. probably how anybody else would feel, you know, as far as i trusted... i trust the neighbourhood,
5:08 pm
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 was 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 have been here through the night, and a key question for them will be over any motive and whether crooks's 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
5:09 pm
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. tom bateman, bbc news, bethel park, pennsylvania. i've been speaking to the pollster and politcal strategist frank luntz. he'd posted that the events of the weekend — would provide a boost in republican voters turning out to vote in novermber.
5:10 pm
i don't see any american changing their point of view about who they're supporting because of the tragedy of saturday. but i do see the intensity. the idea that every trump supporter will be a trump voter on election day. and you can't say the same about biden voters, that trump voters are motivated and biden voters are dispirited. and that turnout difference of maybe one or 2% is enough to change the outcome of this election, particularly in the key swing states of pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan. the outcome of this election, particularly in the key swing states of pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan. and you get a 1% or 2% turnout differential, and you change the outcome. you change history as we know it. i know that this is your whole area of work, but what do you base that percentage figure on that 1%, 2% bump? how do you arrive at that as your best estimation? we've been doing focus groups now for in every single week for the last two years. i probably moderated more sessions
5:11 pm
and more voters than any human being on the face of the earth. so when you sit down with 10,000 or 15,000 people and you're doing so every single day, 30, 40 people a day, every day, you start to get to know what their patterns are. you get to know what their feelings are. and in the end, it's a projection. it's a prognosis. but that's what we have to do. and that's what i'm being asked to do. and someone says, "what is the likely outcome"? i have found nobody switching their vote, but i have absolutely found a percentage of trump voters that want the election today, that are agitated and angry and can't wait to express their point of view. and they were not this way before the events of saturday. so that's why i think the turnout differential will be meaningful and measurable. i was asking our diplomatic correspondent the question about, is it realistic to talk about dialling down the nature of the us political debate?
5:12 pm
uh, maybe you can with - donald- and joe biden. uh, maybe you can with donald trump and joe biden. but you have all the surrogates, all the lawmakers, all the supporters. in terms of voters, do you think it's realistic to think we can shift from what currently is the position to something better? it's not just realistic. it has to happen. and i hold both sides accountable, which upsets both sides. the language that came out of donald trump quite often during the campaign incites this level of passion, this level of, uh, of demanding change, of being intolerant towards other points of view. and joe biden has been using the same kind of language increasingly in his speeches and in his, uh, in his public appearances. they both have to do this. and in fact, i'm prepared to say that it's the language from trump
5:13 pm
if he really does adopt this priority of unity, of bringing people together, of lowering the decibel level. that's what he says on thursday night. i know the convention will be disappointed. his most ardent supporters will be disappointed, but that would guarantee him the election because that's the issue that the remaining undecided voters are focussed on. is donald trump's persona as appropriate for another term because they support his policies, but they're concerned about him as a person. and injoe biden's case, he has to demonstrate at his convention, that he's got the energy and the action and the passion to continue to make changes and continue to make government more efficient, more effective and more accountable. i'm not sure either candidate can do it, but if either candidate does, that's their election. let's speak to our correspondent, sumi somaskanda who's at
5:14 pm
next return to the weekend, how did the assassination attempt on forward and why wasn't the former president better protected? 0ur and why wasn't the former president better protected? our team at bbc verify has been pieced together information from that rally in pennsylvania. here is merlin thomas. we verified video that shows that nearly two minutes before the first gunshots were fired at donald trump, onlookers had noticed a man falling on top of a roof nearby. in this clip, you can hear them shouting to an officer and raising the alarm. bbc verify has examined videos of eyewitness testimony to build up a detailed picture ofjust how long the secret service had to stop this gunman. on saturday night, donald trump was speaking at a campaign event in the city of butler in pennsylvania. he entered the stage in three minutes past six. there were stands full of supporters behind him and two pairs of snipers in separate roofs about 45 metres apart.
5:15 pm
outside the rally venue, the gunman was over 130 metres away from where trump stood. then at nine minutes past six, you can hear the person in this video pointing out the gunman and saying someone is on top of the roof, and zooms in on the shooter laying down. this next video was filmed at ten minutes past six, and we know this because we can hear the words in trump's speech in the background and they sync with the timing of other videos of the same event. the smaller building on the right is the one that the gunman was on, and we see a man talking to what appears to be a police officer here, and they're looking at the buildings. the ap news agency quoted an anonymous official who said a police officer had climbed to the roof and encountered the shooter, who pointed his rifle at the officer. they then said the officer retreated down a ladder. soon after, this video was filmed by a member of the public that shows the gunman as he opened fire. take a look at what happened... shots.
5:16 pm
trump raises his hand to his right ear and ducks. there are more shots. one person in the crowd is killed, and two others are critically injured. now, this video shows a man who was injured. we cross—referenced this with other videos, and we know this was taken in the stand next to the right of the stage, consistent with the shot being fired from the roof towards trump. seconds after the shots were fired, in the words of the secret service sniper, neutralised the shooter. this video shows a person motionless on the roof of the building. 0n the stage, secret service agents surrounded donald trump and before moving him off the stage, they moved to the stage they moved him off the stage here, as you can see. now, we need to focus on there are lots of questions to be answered here. the investigation into the incident is likely to focus on whether more could be done to prevent the gunman. should the rally have been stopped earlier?
5:17 pm
the county sheriff admitted the man was spotted outside the security perimeter before trump started speaking, and they had identified him as a suspicious person. they said officials then lost track of the suspect. we have a clearer picture of how this operation played out but big questions remain over the security operation. merlyn thomas bbc verify. back to milwaukee, just inside the arena here, long lines, and huge security at the event after the weekend. let's speak to our correspondent, sumi somaskanda who's at the republican national convention in milwaukee. i was reading in the last 30 minutes that source is there in milwaukee at the convention saying that the trump campaign team will announce the vice presidential pick at about 2030 gmt, so who is in the frame?—
5:18 pm
so who is in the frame? matthew, this had been _ so who is in the frame? matthew, this had been rumoured _ so who is in the frame? matthew, this had been rumoured all- so who is in the frame? matthew, this had been rumoured all weekl so who is in the frame? matthew, i this had been rumoured all week and that donald trump might actually make this announcement on monday, and we are hearing from our partner here cbs news, that he is in —— is expected to make the announcement in the afternoon. that time is still to be determined, i think, but there are three candidates we have discussed to this point. it was a larger field discussed to this point. it was a largerfield but discussed to this point. it was a larger field but narrowed to these candidates. first, senator marco rubio of florida, a cuban—american, seen as someone who can appeal to eat latino voters here in the us and a strong supporter of presidential. he's a big advocate for donald trump, going on morning talk shows, he is in the running. north dakota governor doug berg, someone close to the president, he should've in new york the former president terminal try that ended in a conviction, and spoke outside the courthouse, a wealthy businessman was seen to be someone who has seen donald trump as ito i as businessman and donald
5:19 pm
trump has spoken very fondly of doug bergen as well. and then the third candidate, who is seen as having a good chance isjd vance, the senator from ohio, andjd vance might be known to some of our international audience and uk audience as well the stop he is someone who wrote hillbilly elegy, a book that came out in 2016 at the height of the presidential campaign, and it was seen as a way to understand the fury of the working class white voters who are starting to turn to donald trump. he detailed his own story coming from poverty in ohio from her family, and working his way up and graduating from yale law school. he then goes on to talk about how those concerns of this community need to be addressed. at the time, it's important to point out, jd vance was critical of donald trump and accused him of having the wrong solutions for working—class white community. he then changed his tune and became a big superior to dutch supporter of
5:20 pm
the president in 2021, and it is believed at this point from what we are hearing from our resources on the ground, thatjd vance is believed to have the best chance to believed to have the best chance to be the nominee, but again it is still up in the air. anything could happen, and we are within that announcement here on the ground in milwaukee. jid announcement here on the ground in milwaukee. , , ., . announcement here on the ground in milwaukee. ., . milwaukee. jd vance prominent in the last 24 hours. — milwaukee. jd vance prominent in the last 24 hours, reacting _ milwaukee. jd vance prominent in the last 24 hours, reacting to _ milwaukee. jd vance prominent in the last 24 hours, reacting to the - last 24 hours, reacting to the events over the weekend. i say from that, we have not seen donald trump today, but we have heard from him on social media, posting about that decision that came out from florida that documents case being thrown out today. that is really significant as well, isn't it? it today. that is really significant as well. isn't it?— well, isn't it? it absolutely is, our correspondent _ well, isn't it? it absolutely is, our correspondent need - well, isn't it? it absolutely is, our correspondent need a - well, isn't it? it absolutely is,i our correspondent need a topic well, isn't it? it absolutely is, - our correspondent need a topic for to it as an earthquake landing here in milwaukee, and it is if you think about the fact that donald trump wasn't facing for criminal cases, one which went to trial my zoo mission, in new york, the hush money case where he was convicted of falsifying business records, but the
5:21 pm
other cases have not, and that is due to legal proceedings that have slowed down the process, and one of the ways donald trump team has been successful in doing so is filing several motions, one which was to dismiss the case, and this one was noindeed dismiss the case, and this one was no indeed dismiss. thejudge in this case it's important to say, she was appointed by donald trump, two of her colleagues followed her to recuse herself, there were concerns among democrats that she was not an impartialjudge in this case. she has rejected all of those cause and a goose —— accusations as well, but is not the end of the story. we know that the special counsel care, jack smith, is likely to appeal this dismissal, but certainly an important victory for donald trump and his legal team as they have been fighting for exactly this to happen, and matthew, as you said, he has been taught that statement on truth social, seeing it is great news and all the other cases, which he calls witchhunts, should also be dismissed, and it's time to stop whipping eyes in thejustice
5:22 pm
dismissed, and it's time to stop whipping eyes in the justice system as he refers to it. but a big piece of news, we have seen reactions from democrat, the senate leader of the democrats, chuck schumer, said it was a wrong decision and we are waiting to hear more action from the white house and pro—props from president biden as well. find president biden as well. and everyone _ president biden as well. and everyone taking _ president biden as well. and everyone taking stock of the events of the weekend, i was reading the veteran republican tongass man, pete sessions, his advice as well as condemning what we saw, saying that donald trump should fix things and not fight, so would be very interesting when we hear from donald trump, the tone and words that he chooses to use. are you getting any pointers from officials where you are about perhaps what that might contain? iathfe are about perhaps what that might contain? ~ ., , ., ,~' , contain? we have been asking this tuestion, contain? we have been asking this question. and _ contain? we have been asking this question, and the _ contain? we have been asking this question, and the message - contain? we have been asking this question, and the message we - contain? we have been asking this. question, and the message we keep getting is that donald trump is going to convey a message of unity, the need for the country to come together. indeed, if you look at him given an exclusive interview to the
5:23 pm
washington examiner last night as he headed to milwaukee, he spoke about the fact that this was the belief this is a game changer, of course, he had written an entirely different speech ahead of the convention, one that would've targeted democrats and presidentjoe biden on his record and policies, now he hasn't completely rewritten that speech and will focus on the need to bring americans together. he sees this, as he says in the interview, as an opportunity to do so. he understands as we all do that it was very close, it could've ended differently, and so that is what we are expecting to hear from so that is what we are expecting to hearfrom him. we have seen, i would say, an indication in these social media statements on truth social, until the classified document statement, his tone had been more muted that we had heard from the former president, perhaps indicated thatis former president, perhaps indicated that is the type of language she was using the speech, but people speaking to underground here, they want to hear more. one more note than that, i spoke to a delegate from florida who arrived yesterday,
5:24 pm
he told me he wants to hear that language from the president and is waiting for that speech. they want to feel that fervor, when he sets out on stage, and he said we will all have bruce buck —— goose bumps and feel this is the moment for this country. it and feel this is the moment for this count . , ., , country. it will be a bit -- busy next couple — country. it will be a bit -- busy next couple of _ country. it will be a bit -- busy next couple of hours, - country. it will be a bit -- busy next couple of hours, thank i country. it will be a bit -- busy| next couple of hours, thank you country. it will be a bit -- busy - next couple of hours, thank you for taking through us that far, and we will have more on bbc news from you in the next little while. let's turn away from america, one more story. the england team have arrived back to the uk, their plane touching down at stansted airport earlier. manager gareth southgate was among the first to depart from the plane to a grey and gloomy afternoon. he was followed by a subdued squad. a late goal from spain dashed the three lions' hopes of european championship victory, with disappointment for thousands of travelling fans, and millions watching at home. andy swiss reports. a wave goodbye from gareth southgate as his team left
5:25 pm
berlin to warm applause, but also deep disappointment. for england, the interminable wait goes oh _ their defeat to spain was their second in a row in a euros final, and the morning after the night before, it was still just as painful. it's a bit heartbreaking, isn't it? you just build up all your hopes, you just think there's history to be made, it's going to happen, but unfortunately, it ain't to be. what do you think should happen to gareth southgate now? i think it's time for a bit of a change, i do, personally, yeah. but he's done a greatjob. you can't fault him. he's done well as well as we could expect, i'd say. cucurella gets it back in! certainly, spain's 2—1win has prompted more questions about the manager's future. after eight years in charge and falling just short again, is it time to go? i totally understand the question and understand you need to ask it, but i need to have those conversations with important people behind the scenes. and i'm obviously not going
5:26 pm
to discuss that publicly first. well, england'sjourney at these euros has certainly been an eventful one. they arrived here as one of the tournament favourites, but once again, it's a case of so near yet so far. helped on. and it's in! and england have certainly given us some magical moments here. here we go. a perfect penalty shoot—out. trent takes the net off! and a last—gasp winner. watkins turns, watkins scores! but getting that all—important trophy remains as elusive as ever. andy swiss, bbc news, berlin. more on our sports bulletin on that in a few minutes' time. let me show you the pictures for one more story. the king and queen were pulled away from their an engagement injersey earlier because of a "false alarm". queen camilla was eating an ice cream, when a member of the royal
5:27 pm
contingent whispered something to her. both she and king charles were then pulled away and taken into the nearby pomme d'0r hotel. but after an investigation, it turned out to be a false alarm. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello, there. it's been a much better day today across north—eastern parts of england with some sunshine and much drier weather. the low pressure that brought the rain over the weekend, that's been moving away, but there's another one coming in, this time into the south—west. that's been bringing the cloud northwards and taking rain northwards as well. but ahead of that, we've seen temperatures getting into the low 205 in the north—east of england and also through the central belt of scotland. it's cooler towards the south—west where we've seen most of the rain so far. but that rain will continue to push its way northwards overnight and there may well be some thunderstorms in there across some eastern parts of england, a few showers for southern scotland, still that damp weather in the north of the country. it should be drier for northern ireland. and southern parts of the uk will turn drier later as that
5:28 pm
rain moves northwards. it will be a warmer night than it was last night. we will start with this rain, though, across wales and parts of northern england. it does tend to move away, petering out. there will be some sunshine developing in many areas but we will see some sharp showers, maybe developing over the pennines, down through the midlands, the risk of some thunderstorms greater in eastern scotland and the north—east of england. temperature—wise very similar to those of today — typically around 19—20 degrees, and in the sunshine it shouldn't feel too bad. now, we have got one area of low pressure then moving away that's bringing the rain today. that will clear away tomorrow and then high pressure will build in in time for wednesday and some much—needed dry weather for much of the country, with some sunshine after a cooler start. now, ahead of some rain coming into the far north—west, there could be one or two showers in western scotland, over the pennines, perhaps north wales, but we're looking at a generally drier day and a warmer day as well, those temperatures getting up to 23 or 24 degrees in eastern parts of england on wednesday. now, we will start to see these
5:29 pm
weatherfronts bring in some rain into the north—west later on in the week, but with higher pressure in the south—east, this is where we're going to hang onto the warm air and that gentle southerly breeze for a bit longer. and temperatures will continue to rise into thursday and perhaps friday as well, the warmth concentrated in the south—east and we are likely to reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. it has been that cool. and for some places that wet, as well. and we start the week with this heavy rain, but as the week goes on things will tend to warm up with most of the heat concentrated in the south—east.
5:30 pm
police in tenerife say they've found human remains in an area where british teenager, jay slater went missing a month ago. donald trump is in milwaukee to be confirmed as the republicans' presidential candidate — a day after a gunman tried to kill him. meanwhile, a usjudge dismisses a case against donald trump which accused him of holding on to classified documents. and the england football team arrives home after losing to spain in the final of the euro's. the victorious spanish team celebrated with the trophy as they arrived home in madrid. we are expecting an open top bus tour with the spanish players they also get to meet the king, all that coming up the next few hours. let's catch up with all of the latest sports headlines. it's the day after the night before and england's euro 2024
5:31 pm
finalists have arrived back on british soil, landing at stansted airport. quite a low—key return for them into gloomy weather that seems to match the nation's mood following that heartbreaking loss to spain. it was a second successive defeat in the european championship final for gareth southgate's men. the england manager promised that he will address speculation over his future and whether he'd be interested in extending his current contract — which expires in december — but not straight away. it is hard to reflect so soon after a defeat like this. of course, to take england to two finals has never been done, but we came here to win and we have not been able to do that. meanwhile, the victorious spanish side have returned from germany, arriving in madrid, where they will have an audience with king felipe the 6th.
5:32 pm
spain became the first team to win seven games at a single euro tournament as they clinched a record fourth european title. disembarking into the sunshine in the spanish capital, more celebrations in a country that is riding a wave of footballing final success. taking into account world cups, european championships, champions league and the europa league of the last 27 men's finals involving spanish teams, they've won all 27. attentions now turn to england's women's side as they face sweden in gothenburg tomorrow. a draw in that match will be enough to see them qualify for next year's euros in switzerland. captain leah williamson was asked about her feelings when fans sing "it's coming home", given the lionesses won the tournament 2 years ago. i think sometimes you need to distinguish between men's and women's, obviously we know what we did and i think the country remembers and had a fantastic summer, as did we and the boys have given us that as well. the final
5:33 pm
result in for finals, one trophy has actually landed back in england and thatis actually landed back in england and that is for both of us to keep striving for more. argentina have successfully defended their copa america title, beating colombia 1—0 in extra time to win the trophy for a record 16th time. the occasion though was marred by trouble outside the ground in miami with the kick—off delayed by 80 minutes. organisers said ticketless fans tried to get into the ground, causing chaos outside the hard rock stadium. there were clashes between fans and police officers and security. it was a night of mixed emotions for lionel messi — he left the field in tears in the second half after injuring himself running for the ball. the match went to extra time, with the winning goal coming in the 112th minute courtesy of inter milan substitute lautaro martinez. so messi wins the copa america for a second time, captaining his country to their third major title in three years.
5:34 pm
tennis, and britain's leading three men's players, jack draper, cameron norrie and dan evans, have been named in the davis cup team for the group stage in manchester in september. doubles specialistsjoe salisbury and neal skupski have also been included in the five—man team. but our tennis correspondent russell fuller says that after winning the men's doubles title at wimbledon over the weekend, henry patten could still feature. he will be able to make up to three changes up until a day before the group stages begin and clearly, he will be interested in how the path players play on the hard courts of north america and particularly at the us open which isjust north america and particularly at the us open which is just before the davis cup in manchester. that the us open which isjust before the davis cup in manchester.— davis cup in manchester. that is all the support — davis cup in manchester. that is all the support for— davis cup in manchester. that is all the support for now. _ davis cup in manchester. that is all the support for now. back - davis cup in manchester. that is all the support for now. back to - davis cup in manchester. that is all the support for now. back to you. i let's return to the us. more now on donald trump who has arrived in milwaukee to attend the republican national convention, where he'll be formally confirmed as his party's candidate for the presidential election
5:35 pm
in november. the former president said he considered delaying the trip after the attempt to assasinate him on saturday, but he could not allow a "shooter" to force a change in his schedule. at a rally in pennsylvania on saturday with just over 24 hours to go before the convention donald trump was grazed by a bullet fired from the rooftop of a nearby shed. the us secret service coordinator for the convention said her team was confident about the security plans for the event and was ready to go. world leaders have expressed their shock at the attempt to kill donald trump. president zelensky said it was a terrible crimes demonstrating the serious challenges of democracy around the world. in israel the prime minister there netanyahu wore a red tie in solidarity with donald trump and said the shooting amounted to an attempt to assassinate us democracy. the king ofjordan said he is deeply shocked and outraged by the heinous attempt to kill the
5:36 pm
former president and said jordan condemned the vicious attack and all kinds of political violence. earlier i spoke to our diplomatic correspondent james langdale to discuss the wider response there has been to the weekend events. for all the political differences world leaders, you know, for all their political differences, they're in a small, elite club, they all know what it's like to be a leader, and i think for many them, there will be at a personal, almost private response, of for the grace of god, because as we have seen, you know, assassinations and assassination attempts do take place from time to time, so i think most of these leaders will be thinking crikey, that could have been me thought, a lot of saying this is an attack on democracy. we heard if mr netanyahu and others making the point that they think democracy should be about debate and discussion
5:37 pm
shouldn't be about violence. that's a noble ambition actually history tells us democracy is, just like many other terms of government, has political violence against its leaderships from time to time, not least in the united states where they've lost four presidents, no less, in a very short space of time to assassination. but it's notjust the us, isn't it? we saw events in slovakia and japan and exactly as you are saying, that resonates because so often these politicians, there's an element of the vulnerability and you're out campaigning, isn't there? nature of democracy is that you expose yourself to the electorate as much as you possibly can which is why there were so many concerns just before the recent uk election of the scale of violence that might take place and subsequently seen just how much intimidation of individual members faced. but clearly if you are up for
5:38 pm
election, you have to do rallies. most of the rallys are high that something that many leaders he will be thinking, crikey, what are we going to have to do ourselves to keep ourselves safe. at the same time, that niggling little bit of worry but what worries them really about what's going on in the united states is the risk to stability there because obviously united states is the powerful democracy in the world and if political violence escalates there, you know, some people have been saying one inch away from civil war, phrases like that, that's something that worries the world, notjust the united states. on a final point, it is a question whether the political discourse, language used, what were seeing can be dialled back? we don't know what motivated this individual to take the action he did. what's interesting is some world leaders have been echoing some of the narrative saying actually this was something, and atmosphere was created by president trump's opponents

which obviously is not a view shared by everyone. a new search for the remains of a woman who was abducted and murdered more than 50 years ago has begun on farmland in hertfordshire. muriel mckay was kidnapped in 1969 by two men who made a million pound ransom demand, but they'd taken her by mistake when they meant to target 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 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 had taken her by mistake and thought she was anna murdoch, the wife of media tycoon rupert murdoch. mrs mckay was the wife of alick mckay, rupert murdoch's deputy. she was then held ransom. 946256. and in this dramatic phone call, one of the kidnappers is heard
5:40 pm
asking her daughter diane for £1 million. now, you tell them they've gone too far. who do i tell has gone too far? tell them you gone to the police. who's gone too far? we've gone too far, i'm going to the police. you've got to get a million, a million pounds, they have to get it. where do you get a million pounds from? i wouldn't know. well, i don't know, it's none of 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
5:41 pm
two previous searches, one at the time of the murder, and another two years ago. 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 are going to dig, so this is, this is the building we have 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 will be a disappointment, but it won't be unexpected. but without searching for something you are never going to find it. so we could have said this is ridiculous, she's not there, but we haven't dug behind the barn, no—one has ever dug behind the barn. forensic teams will be scanning this land all week. muriel mckay's family are hoping
5:42 pm
this time they find her. adina campbell, bbc news, hertfordshire. one of the biggest problems with our children's health is their teeth. the new government is already facing cost to act. 0ne correspondent went to one of the biggest problems with our children's health is their teeth. one in four five—year—olds suffers from tooth. in this meadows nursery in shurecliffe in sheffield they are doing something about it. # brush, brush, brush yourteeth #! we have incorporated tooth brushing because the more they do it, the more likely they are to go home and do it as well because it has become familiar, it's part of their routine. but many children aren't so lucky. the local children's hospital performs tooth extractions on around 1,500 children a year.
5:43 pm
i saw a child he was three having 18 teeth out. 18?! 18. they have 20 baby teeth, so they were only left with two. that is an extreme example, but it is not an exceptional thing. we see that from time to time. keir starmer says the new government will introduce supervised tooth—brushing for three to five—year—olds, focusing on areas of highest need. he has also pledged to create 700,000 new dental appointments a year, but that will take time. i find it really upsetting that there are children who have such awful teeth and it is going to impact on them now while they are having pain and sleepless nights and not being able to eat, not being able to socialise, missing school, but it is going to impact on them throughout their life because that burden of disease goes with you. children who have decay at a younger age we know are two or three times more likely to have decay in their adult teeth.
5:44 pm
for many experts, the biggest issue affecting child health is poverty and there are calls for the new government to act now by scrapping what is known as the two—child benefit cap introduced by the conservatives in 2017. imposing a limit and saying if you have got more than two children you won't get extra benefit, the figures vary, but probably put half a million children into poverty. rachel and her partner have five children. the cap means they get more than £3,000 in universal credit a year for each of their first two children, but nothing for the younger ones. they are £10,000 a year worse off and feeling the squeeze. there's not enough to be able to feed all of us. i put them first and let them eat what they need to and then i eat what is left. scrapping the cap will cost around £3.4 billion a year. sir keir starmer has refused
5:45 pm
to commit to that for now, saying economic stability comes first. instead, the government says it is getting to work on an ambitious strategy to reduce child poverty and that it will also act to tackle the wider problems with child health. you can watch the full story at eight o'clock tonight or stream and now on the bbc iplayer. free refills on drinks could be banned in wales, as part of a government proposal to change the way food and drink that's high in fat, sugar and salt are promoted to shoppers. 0ur correspondent lauren moss has the details. making the healthy choice the easy choice. the message from the welsh labour government in another drive to tackle obesity. its latest plans would see new restrictions brought in on foods high in fat,
5:46 pm
sugar and salt. the conservatives have called the plans nanny state and over the top, but labour says 60% of the population are overweight or obese. these proposals would ban big retailers and restaurants from offering free drink refills to customers. they would also put a stop to certain promotions, such as buy—one—get—one—free and multibuy deals on some food and drinks, like cakes, biscuits, pizzas and ready meals. and there will also be restrictions on where these types of food and drinks and snacks can be placed, like at the front of stores, end of aisles and at checkouts. any retailers found to be breaking the rules could be fined £2,500. these people in wrexham say there should be more incentives to eat healthier foods, too. when you look at healthy food options, they generally cost more than it is for you to eat not healthy. food that's bad for you is cheaper than food that's good for you, so if they were to put these things in place, i suppose people would be more
5:47 pm
encouraged to buy healthier food. you know, you can make a delicious meal with vegetables. _ you know, a nice roast dinner, a nice family dinner, _ and it doesn't have to be expensive. i think it would force me to eat healthy foods actually. yeah, probably would. so i think it's on the better side. yeah, it would be better. similar plans in england that were announced in 2020 have been delayed until next year, while a consultation in scotland closed in spring. in wales, the government previously announced proposals to restrict meal deal promotions, but no final decision's been made. the public can have their say on this consultation until september. lauren moss, bbc news. a new art exhibition is on its way from kent to the caribbean, to be displayed under the ocean. it's the latest of artist jason de—car—res taylor's submerged works around the world. this report from ian palmer contains some flashing images. jason decaires taylor among his creations destined for the sea. the 30 sculptures and the boats they stand in took eight months to make. so, the piece is talking about how climate change affects small island nations.
5:48 pm
so, carriacou, where the sculptures are heading to, is a very small island, obviously in the caribbean and its really subject to the effects of climate change. so increased hurricanes have a massive impact, rising seas. warming seas, you know, are very detrimental. seeing how the texture changes, how the colour changes, the forms, just seeing something that was once so inert come alive. i think that's what really fascinates me. decaires taylor has made more than a thousand sculptures. he's founded five underwater museums. but his latest project was particularly difficult. each vessel is made from japanese marine stainless steel. the artist had to buy a cutting machine to carry out the task. we also had to laser—cut a lot of the metal to allow creatures to be able to inhabit the structure.
5:49 pm
coming closer the full screen as that. schoolchildren from carriacou and petit martinique are the models for the sculptures. the boats are inspired by island history and culture. art is not meant to be that hard, surely? i mean, why on earth do you do this? i think everything's really complicated when you actually look into the process of things. you know, mine is probably a little bit more complicated because there's so many elements, but you look at any public sculpture, there's a lot of planning, consultation, engineering, materials, community consultation. apologies to leave that as we are live in madrid. the pictures of the

king of spain meeting the victorious players, coaches and squad of the spanish team. you see the king in the first to go through was the captain and our thoughts as they were setting up the turkey there in the room you canjust were setting up the turkey there in the room you can just see it behind through the various handshakes there. there is the trophy that certainly broke the heart of england and huge delight across spain. the first time they have won the euros. what an incredibly successful tournament it has been for them. their coach, overseeing seven straight wins. the group stages, all of the knockout stages and ultimately the 2—1 defeat of england last night. the style of football as
5:51 pm
well has been marked and has been enthused by so many supporters, analysts and punters because they played such fluid attacking football without nerves, with some of the youngsters, and the 17—year—old with his birthday over the weekend and that's 22—year—old, the absolutely flamboyant wingers who terrorised the teams they faced and one by one they knocked out the likes of germany, italy, france, the bid was of tournament and ultimately beating england convincingly despite all of the sport here in the uk. as the care merman and various photographers try to get the various
5:52 pm
images that will be on the front pages, but i rather suspect what in the coming hours is what will adorn the coming hours is what will adorn the front pages because we are expecting the victory parade to go through the streets of madrid in the next couple of hours, an open top bus and one expects hundreds of thousands of people to be on the streets. flavourful scenes last night it across spain and madrid and i'm sure we will see that replicated. 0ne i'm sure we will see that replicated. one by one they filed for and shook the hands of this king of spain but the family photo because they, like all of the teams have been cooped away for around five weeks, it has been a real endurance in all of these squads were there for weeks on end, away from theirfamilies, but were there for weeks on end, away from their families, but this were there for weeks on end, away from theirfamilies, but this is what it is all about. getting home and getting to meet the king with the trophy, and later on they will
5:53 pm
meet the fans. so if you take the strap off the screen we will see the trophy itself because there it is. the camera just moving away from it but of course, all the squad they are winning the metals so such delight there and it was interesting, was talking it will play the interview and a second or two, and a shirt about to be presented there to the king. number four on the back and that is of course the fourth time spain has one of the euros. 0f course the fourth time spain has one of the euros. of course, england, we get to wait for longer. there it is, a huge round of applause. the king. of course these the moments that everyone here in england were hoping to replicate. a5 of the arrival as the england players arrived home in stansted, they were hoping all of these images they would get to play
5:54 pm
out. the king, enjoying every single moment of that. i was talking about these players coming home. it's worth showing you as we have these live pictures, the pictures from the airport as they arrived in madrid a little earlier. there they are on the tarmac, a littlejig, those pictures in front of the various photographers there on the tarmac as they arrived home. that was earlier, let us show you the live pictures from the palace, the king addressing those players. semra hunter is a spanish — she gave me her analysis of spain record—breaking fourth euros triumph in berlin last night. the grin has grown from ear to ear, now, considering how things went down last night. we're absolutely thrilled. we are just so happy that we can not just enjoy spanish football again
5:55 pm
for the men's team, but also enjoy silverware after a 12—year wait if you don't count the nations league from 2023. but yes, very, very pleased today. i suppose what's most pleasing and you'll know this better than i, that just the way they played, notjust the final, but every game along the way, winning every single one, but the type of football also they were playing. the fact is that they've become the first team to win all seven games, have a 100% win rate in the european championship. that's never been done before. i mean, that's hugely remarkable and as you rightly say, they did so in quite some style. they did so with pizzazz and flair and it was fun to watch and it was entertaining. and i think they've become so diverse in the way in which they can play now, which is a big evolution from the team 10 to 15 years ago, that was more about the possession game, the short passes, the tiki—taka style. now they can be direct, they can defend, they can come to the middle, they can play the long game, the short game. they can forfeit possession.
5:56 pm
they can come at you with a counter attack. they have so much resources off the bench as well. the substitutions have been on point. there's so much depth on the bench. and so you have wonderful like for like changes who can really turn things on a dime. the times that they have gone behind, they've managed to come back in terms of favour, uh, to what they were after. don't forget that victory parade coming up in the coming hours in madrid. we will bring you the live pictures here on bbc news. the six o'clock news is next. first though, look at the weather with darren. hello there. we should see some improvements in the weather later this week, but we've started the week with cloud and rain, and it's already been a very wet july for some eastern parts of england. loftus really stands out. we've had more than twice the normal rainfall, in contrast to here in western scotland, where there's only been 20% of normal rainfall and it's generally been drier in the west and wetter in the east. but this area of low pressure has
5:57 pm
been trudging northwards, bringing these outbreaks of rain northwards. we may well see the rain turning heavy and possibly even thundery for a while as it moves its way further north across england and wales. it should turn drier in the south later in the night and further north in scotland. there will still be some showers around as well, but with more cloud around tonight it is going to be a bit warmer than it was last night, 13 or 14 degrees. but we start tomorrow with this cloud and rain in wales and parts of northern england that should get drawn away and it will brighten up in many places. but there will be some showers as well, some pokey ones developing over the pennines through the midlands, and the risk of some thundery downpours in eastern scotland and the northeast of england. those temperatures not that exciting really. 18—19 degrees, i think quite widely so still a little on the cool side, but that low pressure is taking the rain away. the showers that follow will fade during tomorrow evening and we'll start to see higher pressure
5:58 pm
approaching the uk. there are still some weather fronts lingering out in the atlantic that will eventually arrive in the far northwest, and ahead of that, the odd shower is possible in western scotland over the pennines and north wales. but on the whole — a drier day, some sunshine, light winds, getting a bit warmer. nothing too startling, but an improvement on what we've seen 23, maybe 24, in some eastern parts of england. now we do have some weather fronts to bring some rain into the northwest on thursday, but ahead of that, we're drawing up some warmer air on that gentle southerly breeze. it does mean the highest temperatures are going to be across more southeastern parts of the uk, where we could reach 25 degrees for the first time this month. that just shows you how cool it's been. temperatures could get even higher, i think, on friday for southeastern parts, but then it cools down into the weekend as we start to see that rain moving down further from the northwest.
