for england after gareth southgate steps down, who will be the new person in the hot seat with the world cup less than two years away. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. just two days after england lost to spain in the euros final, the england manager, gareth southgate, has resigned. in a statement, he said, "it's time for change, and for a new chapter." for his eight years in the job, he was england's most successful manager in decades, leading the squad to four major tournaments, including a world cup semifinal and two european championship finals. he said, as a proud englishman, playing for and managing the national team was the "honour of his life" and he'd given the job his all. our sports correspondent, natalie pirks, is at wembley. there's been so much speculation about what gareth southgate would do after sunday's game, and he didn't wait long to tell us.

we thought it was coming but we didn't think it would be this quick. unusually for a departing england manager, praise has been pouring into thejude bellingham hailed him as an unbelievable human being. it was a career that began as a stopgap but ended in england men can be a success story since 1966, but gareth southgate decided that ats is a long time in onejob, let alone an impossible one. the honour of my life, how the socket describing his nearly eight years managing england for the believes his players were worthy of god. saying they can go on to win the trophy we all dream of. the fa, who hoped he would stay, held him for making the impossiblejob possible to fa president the prince of wales called him an all—round class act. fans today praised a job well done. class act. fans today praised a “ob well done. ., ~' class act. fans today praised a “ob well done. ., ~ �* , class act. fans today praised a “ob well done. ., ~ �*, ., ., well done. crow i think he's done a aood “ob. well done. crow i think he's done a good job- is _

of the biggest and highest paid roles in international football. among the favourites is graham potter. now, he impressed during his three years in charge at brighton, but he's been out of work for more than a year after being sacked by chelsea. another highly rated english coach said to be on the far shortlist is eddie howe, although luring him away from newcastle united could prove difficult. and then there's england's under 21 coach, lee carsley. he'd be an obvious candidate if an interim solution was needed. the fa, however, aren't ruling out a foreign coach. so how about argentine mauricio pochettino, available after leaving chelsea in may? jurgen klopp's another illustrious name out of work, having left liverpool to take a break, although he's been linked with the vacant united states manager'sjob. and then there's pep guardiola. now, the fa say they are committed to hiring the best, but the all—conquering manchester city manager isn't available until next summer. whoever takes over has a hard act to follow. southgate will be remembered

as the man who restored the credibility of the england team for so long a symbol of sporting underachievement during his eight years in charge and, with just two years until the next world cup, it will now fall to his replacement to try and build on that progress and finally secure that elusive silverware. dan roan there. the first minister of wales, vaughan gething, is to stand down afterjust four months in the role. this morning, four of his labour ministers quit the welsh government, telling mr gething they could not get on with the job unless he resigned. mr gething had lost a vote of no confidence last month, and had faced questions about a £200,000 donation he took while running to be welsh labour leader. 0ur political editor, chris mason, is at the welsh parliament in cardiff. chris, there's been anger at vaughan gething for some time, and things finally came to a head today. yes, good evening from a sun blushed cardiff, and there has been plenty of anger, but still at 10am this morning, a thunderbolt in welsh

politics. not one resignation, not two or three, but four resignations from the welsh government. for a first minister, just like a prime minister, if you cannot assemble a functioning government, you cannot govern. and therefore it was inevitable that a short time later, at 11:15am, vaughan gething would say he was off. just when you'd be forgiven for thinking politics might be quietening down a bit, this. i have this morning taken the difficult decision to begin the process of stepping down as the leader of welsh labour and as a result, the first minister. born in zambia, his dad a vet from bridgend, his mum a chicken farmer, vaughan gething became first minister of wales in march. listen just a few months on how he speaks of what's happened since. a growing assertion that some kind of wrongdoing has taken place has been pernicious, politically motivated

and patiently untrue. to those people in wales who look like me, many of whom i know feel personally bruised and worried by this moment, i know that our country can be better. just last week he was sharing smiles with the king and the new prime minister was here in cardiff too. today, the prime minister said, i want to thank vaughan gething for his service. vaughan should take enormous pride in being the first black leader of any country in europe. so how did this all go so wrong so quickly? the seeds of vaughan gething's political demise were there to see the day he won. his defeated opponent, jeremy myles, leaving without any warm words for our cameras about the victor, and a row about a massive donation, £200,000, from a business man convicted of environmental offences was already dogged mr

gething. there's lots of hard work that goes into running a more than three month campaign. and lots of money. it's an indivisible part of modern politics. and then there was a row about the sacking of a minister, hannah blythin, accused of leaking text messages to a welsh news website from a group chat during the pandemic, when mr gething said he was deleting messages. she denied leaking on the website denied that she was their source. what a mess. and the conservatives tabled a non—binding vote of confidence in mr gething last month, which he lost. how credible an opposition can you be as the welsh conservatives when you have just been wiped out in terms of mps at westminster in the general election? we have done what the people of wales wanted, which is to get the answer is that they are demanding over their inept labour government here in wales. do you really want another election now when there would still be an election in 2026? it's not a matter of whether i want an election now,

we are just at a point in time where we have this chaos under labour in wales. we see a revolving door potentially of labour first ministers. tonight, here another first minister is on his way out, another political contest is under way. that race will be getting going straightaway, a waste to select the third first minister of wales of 2024. let's third first minister of wales of 202a. let's bring in tomos morgan, our wales correspondence, who is in carmarthen. even to you, where does this leave wales and where does it leave welsh labour, ahead of elections here to cardiff bay the year after next? {iii elections here to cardiff bay the year after next?— year after next? of a difficult osition year after next? of a difficult position step _ year after next? of a difficult position step ever— year after next? of a difficult position step ever since - year after next? of a difficult - position step ever since devolution, welsh labour have been in power in some form or other, but in the past couple of years, their record in power, specifically with education

and the nhs, has come under question, and two specific policy decisions, the decision to implement a 20 mph speed limit in urban areas and the proposed subsidy for farmers in rural areas like carmarthen have not gone down well at all with the welsh public, prompted the biggest bash clashes —— biggest backlash is seen since devolution of combining those two things together, i think many within welsh labour believed they need to be some sort of change. but, without a unity candidate at a split between welsh labour, i think whether they choose not everyone will be happy. whether they choose not everyone will be happy-— will be happy. thank you, tomos moraan will be happy. thank you, tomos morgan in _ will be happy. thank you, tomos morgan in carmarthen. - will be happy. thank you, tomos morgan in carmarthen. a - will be happy. thank you, tomos morgan in carmarthen. a final. morgan in carmarthen. a final thought, in february, we had a new first deputy first minister of northern ireland. vaughan gething was appointed here in march and is now on his way out, and scotland had a turnover of first ministers. who is to say it's westminster that has

a monopoly on political turbulence in the uk? from a sunny cardiff, backed up yoder in london. —— back to fiona. the bbc has responded to the continuing controversy around one of its most popular shows, strictly come dancing. after complaints about two of its professional dancers, the bbc says all celebrities will be accompanied by production staff during rehearsals. a contestant in the most recent series, zara mcdermott, has talked today of distressing incidents during training with her dancing partner, graziano di prima. he's left the show, as has fellow professional giovanni pernice, who's denied allegations about his teaching methods. lizo mzimba has the latest. this is strictly come dancing. many recent headlines _ this is strictly come dancing. many recent headlines have _ this is strictly come dancing. many recent headlines have carried allegations that strictly come dancing hasn't been glitter and glamour. zara mcdermott said that, while much of her time on strictly was positive, her experience in the

consistent with a fall in a rocky area. he'd been missing forfour weeks despite a huge search of the island. his mother said simply — our hearts are broken. fiona trott reports from tenerife. a remote place thousands of miles from home. it's heartbreaking to think this is where a teenager lost his life. just a normal lad from lancashire is how his family described him. all they know so far is that jay came to this holiday home with two men he met at a music festival. a neighbour told us he asked about bus times and that was then seen walking up a mountain, the opposite direction to where he needed to go. and then today news here from the high court that no family can never prepare for. tests have shown that the body found in

that area was their son, their brother, and he died from an injury probably caused by a fall in a rocky area. away from the investigation, jay slater�*s family need answers of their own. they have recruited these volunteers from the netherlands to trace his last known movements. it trace his last known movements. it is very important to find out what has happened in the last hours for jay, what has happened and why does he take that road? we don't know yet. he take that road? we don't know et. ~ .., he take that road? we don't know et. . . ., , ., , yet. we can try and help them understand — yet. we can try and help them understand that. _ yet. we can try and help them understand that. yes. - yet. we can try and help them understand that. yes. all- yet. we can try and help them understand that. yes. all this | yet. we can try and help them - understand that. yes. all this looks and feels very _ understand that. jazz all this looks and feels very different to understand that. 123 all this looks and feels very different to the place jay knew it. a month ago people in his tied ribbons to bring hope. tonight they are coming together to remember. the hope. tonight they are coming together to remember. the message to them as stay — together to remember. the message to them as stay strong _ together to remember. the message to them as stay strong as _ together to remember. the message to them as stay strong as strong _ together to remember. the message to them as stay strong as strong as - them as stay strong as strong as much as you can, know you are loved by the communities surrounding and

he walked among them, the great survivor appearing unbloodied withjust a bandage on his ear. he didn't speak, just seeing him was enough for his followers. welcome to the church of trump. chanting: usa, usa! what a reception this is. donald trump being treated like some sort of messiah. he is absolutely adored by these people. this is not politics as usual. how does it feel seeing donald trump here? wonderful. i can't say the words, he is the anointed, he is called to lead our nation and prayers unto him to bless him and bless the usa. the attempt on his life and narrow escape has changed his relationship with his party, and maybe, just maybe changed him. what's really interesting to see from here is that donald trump

himself looks really moved, genuinely emotional. sitting right beside him, his brand—new running mate jd vance. a young senator who shares trump's convictions and uses similar rhetoric and casual insults. i was talking about, what is the first truly islamist country that will get a nuclear weapon and i was like, maybe it's iran, maybe pakistan already kind of counts and we finally decided, maybe it's the uk because labourjust took over. jd vance can appeal to working—class voters in key rust belt states. he may not be the man to change the tone in a campaign where both sides have used incendiary language. in an interview with nbc news, president biden was asked if he regretted saying it was time to put donald trump in a bullseye. i guess i was talking about at the time was, there is a very little focus on trump's agenda. the term was bull's—eye. it was a mistake to use the word.

i didn't say cross hairs, when i said bullseye i meant focus on him, focus on what he is doing. the assassination attempt on donald trump has upended the election. it will change the tone of the campaign. it may even affect the result and how mr trump is seen by voters. sarah smith, bbc news, milwaukee, wisconsin. the czech billionaire bidding to take over royal mail has told the bbc that letters will be delivered six days a week, for the same price anywhere in the uk, as long as he is alive. daniel kretinsky�*s £3.6 billion takeover requires government approval and unions have expressed grave concerns over his plans. he's been talking to our business editor simonjack. things have changed a bit since royal mail was founded 500 years ago by henry viii. this is the man who wants to be the new owner, czech billionaire daniel kretinsky, so why should de be trusted with such an important national asset? {iii

to see the first visit from a reigning monarch in almost 20 years. there was a special outdoor sitting of the guernsey parliament. the king's speech, a nod to the island's past. this area holds special meaning for many reasons, as it is very close to where the liberating troops were so eagerly welcomed by the populace in 1945, as they freed the islands from wartime occupation. surfing off guernsey during the 19705, as prince of wales, the king has been to the island several times before. but today, as sovereign, there was a hint of holiday mood, a chance to get a taste of guernsey. this visit has been short but important. the message is, the king is back in business, with plans now for a busy autumn schedule. royal honours don'tjust get bestowed on human beings.

spain. that still to come. in the short term we still have a few showers around in the north this evening but overnight the sky is generally clear. a little bit misty and murky in places. these are the temperatures around the morning rush hour, 12—14, with a bit of humidity in the air. this is a bridge on the pressure so high pressure will promote generally bright weather and a few showers developing tomorrow almost anywhere in the uk, but the weather front because of this high pressure will be kept at bay, so maybe the west of northern ireland tomorrow later on in the day could get a bit of cloud and rain and this week where the weather front make some progress that will be shrouding western parts of the uk so the further east you are on thursday the brighter the weather will be. and look at the temperature, 27 in london on thursday, widely into the low 20s across the bulk of the uk

and friday we may hit 30 celsius, we have had 30.5 last month, but widely into the mid 20s, and as not many of us like that sort of heat by saturday it will be pleasant, 20s, and after that back to where we were before. i knew it wouldn't last. we'll hand over to my colleagues for the news where you are in a moment but first, after gareth southgate announces his resignation as england manager, we'll leave you with a little reminder of his rise from player to manager. bye bye. # where it began # where it began # i can't begin to knowing # i can't begin to knowing # but then i know it's growing strong... {3h # but then i know it's growing stron: . .. ., # but then i know it's growing strong. . .- thanks - # but then i know it's growing strong. . .- thanks a - # but then i know it's growing strong. . .- thanks a lot, j # but then i know it's growing - strong. . .- thanks a lot, boys, strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel much — strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel much better _ strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel much better now. _ strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel much better now. this - strong... oh no! thanks a lot, boys, i feel much better now. this time i i feel much better now. this time he's hit the _ i feel much better now. this time he's hit the post! _
