italian authorities recover the final body — from the wreckage of a luxury yacht — which sank off the coast of sicily. a british paralympic champion says prosthetics provided by the uk health service need to improve to help produce team gb's "next generation" of gold medallists. we speak to richard whitehead live about his concerns. no cars, no rubbish. bristol gears up for a net—zero music festival, as massive attack plans a totally eco—friendly gig. we will have all of those stories coming up in the next few minutes but let's pause for sport. now with all the latest sport here's tanya arnold. hello from the bbc sport centre. after an up—and—down second round at the women's open,

england's charley hull remains in contention at st andrews. she led after the first round, making the best of the tricky conditions on the east coast of scotland, but dropped early shots in her second road. she clawed them back, but it's american nelly korda who leads the way after shooting a four—under—par 68. england ended theirfirst innings with a 122—run lead over sri lanka on day three of the first test match at old trafford in manchester. they finished on 358 all out, jamie smith getting his first test century. he was eventually out for 111. in their second innings, natural anchor are 82—3. in their second innings sri lanka are 82—3. pep guardiola says the decision to bring former captain iklay gundogan back to manchester city was an easy one. the 33—year—old has signed a one—year deal with the option of a second one. he won 14 trophies during seven seasons at the etihad stadium before moving to barcelona last summer. of course, he is not a teenager any more, but the reason why we decided

the chance to do it is for the level he played last season, he knows what we want to do, he doesn't need that, you know? he knows the city, the club, the place, so he will be immediately settled, that is why we could do it, and we did it. the arsenal manager, mikel arteta, says he'll open talks about a new contract with the club once the transfer window has closed. his current contract expires at the end of this season but talks are not expected to be a problem. their thoughts have been with the transfer window and we had quite a lot of things to do. we will take care of that in the right moment. i am very grateful, first of all, for i am sitting on the people i work with every single day because it is very difficult to find that harmony, that trust, that belief, that same alignment. and it's something i always mention. after its summer break, formula i has returned for the dutch grand prix.

alpine have announced they're promoting their reserve driver jack doohan next season. the 21—year—old australian finished third in last year's formula 2 championship. he'll drive alongside frenchman pierre gasly, with esteban ocon moving to haas from next year. doohan is the son of five—time motorcycle world champion mick. first practice at zandvoort started in the wind and rain, but as conditions improved, times kept tumbling right until the chequered flag, with britain's lando norris pipping championship leader max verstappen by two tenths of a second on his final lap. second practice is already under way. you can follow it all on the bbc sport website and app. verstappen currently has the fastest time. british paralympians helene raynsford and gregor ewan have been chosen to ignite the paralympic flame on saturday at stoke mandeville, the birthplace of the paralympic movement before making the journey to paris. paralympicsgb have targetted between 100 and 140 medals and hope to use the platform to inspire others. at the paralympicsgb, we want to inspire and unite the

nation, that is our purpose, and we want to do that through performances on the field of play, but we want that gold dust to create excitement and opportunity for everyone else off the field of play, you know, we don'tjust fly the flag for paralympians as paralympicsgb, we fly the flag for every disabled person. and you can follow the cricket, golf, f one on the bbc sport website. and that's all the sport for now. lets get back to what we saw in chicago because... kamala harris promised a new way forward as she accepted her party's nomination for the us presidency at the climax of the democratic national convention. she told jubilant supporters that the united states had a fleeting opportunity to move past bitterness, cynicism and division. bbc verify team has been fact—checking kamala harris�*s speech, including her claims about the policies of her republican

rival, donald trump. with me is merlyn thomas from bbc verify. what have you found? so, over night we were looking at her speech and she spoke about her career, her upbringing, donald trump's record and some of his plans. she focus specifically on women's reproductive rights... as a part of his agenda, he and his allies would limit access to birth control, ban medication abortion and enact a nationwide abortion ban with or without congress. let's focus on that first claim, she said that he, referring to tramp, would limit access to birth control that's misleading because he said he would not do this. he responded on his social media platform, truth social, and he said... i do not limit access to birth control, that is a lie. in limit access to birth control, that

is a lie. , ., is a lie. in terms of her referencing _ is a lie. in terms of her referencing his - is a lie. in terms of her referencing his allies, l is a lie. in terms of her i referencing his allies, who is a lie. in terms of her - referencing his allies, who wish actually talking about? she appears to be referencing _ actually talking about? she appears to be referencing project _ actually talking about? she appears to be referencing project 2025, - actually talking about? she appears to be referencing project 2025, that is a document produced by the right wing research group the heritage foundation and in it, it is nearly 900 page document and it outlines some of the plans it would like to see donald trump enact. for example, ending tax payer funded see donald trump enact. for example, ending tax payerfunded planned parenthood, limiting is access to some contraceptive pills but tramp has been very keen to distance himself from this project. he said that i know nothing about project 2025 and i have no idea who is behind it. he said that injuly. but according to cnn, at least 144 tramp administration officials have been involved in this project. in administration officials have been involved in this project.— involved in this pro'ect. in terms of kamala h involved in this pro'ect. in terms of kamala harris's — involved in this project. in terms of kamala harris's claims - involved in this project. in termsj of kamala harris's claims around abortion, tell me more about the context of those little more details about them. context of those little more details about them-— context of those little more details about them. . . . ., , about them. kamala harris has said that donald — about them. kamala harris has said that donald trump _ about them. kamala harris has said that donald trump and _ about them. kamala harris has said that donald trump and his - about them. kamala harris has said that donald trump and his allies - that donald trump and his allies would enact a nationwide abortion

ban but that is misleading because donald trump has said he would not sign a national abortion ban and has said that this is an issue he believes should be left to individual states to decide themselves. it is worth noting that when he was president he appointed three justices to the supreme court who voted to overturn roe v wade, thatis who voted to overturn roe v wade, that is the ruling that protected the constitutional right through an abortion for nearly 50 years and that was overturned in june abortion for nearly 50 years and that was overturned injune 2022 so it is a claim that is misleading but it is a claim that is misleading but it does need some more context. thank you very much. more from bbc verify here in the programme in the next little while. the app was ordered to pay 10,000

judge in his ruling said that caselaw consistently found that six is changeable and necessarily binary. roxanne tickell has reacted saying that all women, this shows all women are protected from discrimination and hoped that the case would be healing for trans— and gender diverse people. giggle's legal team has said the fight for women's rights continues. this was a real landmark ruling here in australia, it was the first time that gender identity determination was heard in a federal court and also it may well set a legal precedent for how sec space rights versus gender identity rights play out in court and we may see other countries are facing similar court cases, we may also seem to be maxi this course case back if the giggle legal team decide to appeal. around the world and _ legal team decide to appeal. around the world and across _ legal team decide to appeal. around the world and across the _ legal team decide to appeal. around the world and across the uk, - legal team decide to appeal. around the world and across the uk, you - legal team decide to appeal. around | the world and across the uk, you are watching bbc news.

welcome back to bbc news. massive attack helped redefine british music in the 1990s. now the bristol band are trying to change the music industry's record on climate action, with their most environmentally friendly gig yet. 34,000 fans will only be able to buy vegan food, while seeing a concert solely powered by batteries. a warning, this report from david sillito does contain some flashing images. # love, love is a verb. # love is a doing word... clifton downs, high above bristol, and preparations for a festival with a difference. no cars, no diesel, no rubbish. bristol's trip—hop superstars massive attack are trying to prove there's a better way of doing big outdoor events. it's always a big deal to play on your home turf, yeah, so it's a big deal for us, yeah.

you're making it special. leaving this gig as a legacy to our history of the city, our performances in the city would be the best thing we can offer. fans have been told to leave cars at home and come by train, but that only takes you so far. you have to get up to the site as well. you can walk, but it's quite a trek and almost all of it uphill. however, you could try cycling. i said try! however, there is an alternative that's easier on your legs than a long walk or cycle up the hill — a bus. an electric bus. hello, simon. how many buses are you putting on? we are putting on 39 fully electric buses. that's a lot for one gig. yes, but people tend to leave at the same time. they don't want to be waiting for three hours to leave, yeah. thank you very much. and on site, it's like a green laboratory, a battery—powered green laboratory.

it weighs 40 tonnes. that's a lot of battery. dale vince knows festivals well. in the �*80s, he was what was known as a new age traveller. he's now a renewable energy tycoon. it's the first time an event this big, 30,000 people, has been entirely powered by batteries. why can't you just plug it into the mains? because there is no mains here. that is the fundamental problem of outdoor events. 12 million litres of diesel burnt annually in our country to power outdoor events. but this is about more than just cars and power. this is what most festivals look like when everyone has gone home. here, they are hoping... no rubbish. this stuff that is normally thrown on the ground, you can just put it on the compost heap? you can. and what about all the cups that are always left behind? the cups are reusable. they're made from a reusable vessel which you can take back and wash and reuse again and again. and the fans? well, the two we had

a chat to were all for it, but there is an issue — getting home. we have had to book a hotel and then get a train back on monday. evie is from cornwall, jess, liverpool. can you get back on sunday night? definitely not with how late it is, so i have to get a place to stay. gwr is laying on five extra late—night local trains, but after midnight... it's really difficult to do after midnight to ensure that network rail have the ability to do the engineering work that they need. they need to do the maintenance? they absolutely do. and this is just a fraction of everything they're trying. for the band, who have long had a passion for these issues, this is way more than just another gig. this is just something that we love doing, and it's our bit to help, really. the only time you will know it has really worked is when you walk on stage in front of 34,000 people and the lights come on and the music works properly.

the only time we will know it has worked is when we walk off stage and there have been no power cuts. this experiment has, by its very virtue of being here, is hopefully going to create some activity because it is a sector which has a lot to say about climate change, but unfortunately, it's not doing much about it. david sillitoe without report, a fascinating area. let's be to greg a climate and culture journalist. welcome to the programme. you interviewed massive attack for the guardian newspaper a few days ago what you make of what they are doing a? , . , , ., , , ., what you make of what they are doing a? ,, ., a? they are essentially, you heard it there, a? they are essentially, you heard it there. they _ a? they are essentially, you heard it there, they talk _ a? they are essentially, you heard it there, they talk about _ a? they are essentially, you heard it there, they talk about this - a? they are essentially, you heard it there, they talk about this being a bit of an experiment, they are debuting a lot of new initiatives that we have not seen on this scale before. as we know, it takes sometimes people to go first, to try something new, so in that sense, they are very much pioneering, bringing these initiatives. they are

going to be sharing their learning to the music community afterwards to hope it creates a bit of a blueprint for how our live music events can be more environmentally conscious. i5 more environmentally conscious. is very interesting is even the title of the show is 1.5 and that is that reference that key un climate change target but it runs through just about every aspect of the show, doesn't it? it about every aspect of the show, doesn't it?— about every aspect of the show, doesn'tit? ., , ., , , , a doesn't it? it really does, yes. as ou sa , doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say. at _ doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say. at 1-5. — doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say. at1-5. it— doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say, at 1.5, it is— doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say, at 1.5, it is aligned - doesn't it? it really does, yes. as you say, at 1.5, it is aligned withl you say, at 1.5, it is aligned with global warming, the london paris climate agreement, the messaging about why they are doing this show is very much front and centre. they have not hidden away. it's something that fans can see clearly. yes, they are addressing the key areas and emissions that are involved in the live music event. it's not something we necessarily think about we've normally got a mind on music. those areas are energy, transport, food, and waste. they are taking action on all of those fronts. the biggest part of the emissions of party, if

you think of it in those terms, a live music event, is travel, and specifically how music fans get to a show. that is why the band has taken such new lengths to try and address that with things like chartering trains, so people can get there. they also incentivise locals to come to the show by giving them free access, ahead of everybody else to try and buy tickets. there are electric shuttles, that you just saw, the electric buses, that go from the site to the transport hubs so they are really trying to address that. to make that clear area where they make that work. the? that. to make that clear area where they make that work.— that. to make that clear area where they make that work. they make the oint that they make that work. they make the point that the _ they make that work. they make the point that the music _ they make that work. they make the point that the music sector _ they make that work. they make the point that the music sector quite - point that the music sector quite often talks about climate change but has not done very much. that is to address that issue. slowly, we are studying to be maxi and change, aren't we? i remember coldplay changing the way they toured, billy eilish doing things about being environmentally friendly and being focused on upfront about that. do you think it's actually something is

catching on?— you think it's actually something is catchinon? ,, , catching on? absolutely yes. as you oint out, catching on? absolutely yes. as you point out. the _ catching on? absolutely yes. as you point out, the music— catching on? absolutely yes. as you point out, the music community - catching on? absolutely yes. as you point out, the music community has allowed voice, it is influential. we know that. when an artist or people in the music community take action, people notice. this is why it's such an important area to try and highlight the solutions that are happening in this space. you are right, you namejust a couple of artists which are taking action in this area will stop most people might have heard what is going on with coldplay, they obviously launched their music tour in 2022 with a raft of sustainability measures, things like, a kinetic dance floor, where fans could jump up dance floor, where fans could jump up and down and dance and create power that was going into the batteries that will empower the show, and they also had bicycles that fans could ride on to do similar things. they revealed earlier this sustainability report they have managed to drive down the greenhouse gas emissions from their world tour by 59% compared to their

most recent world tour so they are just showcasing that when you take the steps, the outcome are really tangible. and also, billy eilish, the us pop star, it really is a leader in the climate music space. in 2022, when she was in the uk, a week and half of watching amazing sportsme was in uk, headlining the famous glastonbury in 2022, when she was in the uk, headlining the famous glastonbury festival, she also played a run of festival, she also played a run of shows at the 02 arena in london. she shows at the 02 arena in london. she asked the venue to only serve a asked the venue to only serve a plant —based food so the vendor plant —based food so the vendor slowly selling vegan food. she also slowly selling vegan food. she also put on a couple of climate events put on a couple of climate events called overheated which is where she called overheated which is where she invites leaders in the climate field invites leaders in the climate field and also music fans to have a and also music fans to have a amazing sportsmen dialogue about what is happening on dialogue about what is happening on climate in music.— climate in music.— climate in music. greg, it's a really interesting _ climate in music. greg, it's a climate in music. greg, it's a really interesting _ climate in music. greg, it's a really interesting area - climate in music. greg, it's a really interesting area as - climate in music. greg, it's a - really interesting area as massive attack, as you are saying at the really interesting area - climate in music. greg, it's a really interesting area as - climate in music. greg, it's a - really interesting area as massive attack, as you are saying at the start, they are planning to release start, they are planning to release the blueprints of what they are the blueprints of what they are doing it to hope that other bands doing it to hope that other bands and promoters will actually follow and promoters will actually follow suit. thank you so much doing us —— suit. thank you so much doing us —— joining us here in the programme. joining us here in the programme. the paralympic games the paralympic games

start on wednesday — start on wednesday — a week and half of watching a week and half of watching amazing sportsmen and women at the top of their game. but a reigning paralympic champion has told bbc news that prosthetics provided by the health service here in the uk need to improve to help produce great britain's next generation of gold medallists. nikki fox reports.

the paralympics coming around, its very important to highlight, yes, the paralympic sport is there and it is fantastic, it has world class elite performers, but how does that relate to the audience back at home? how does that relate to the reality front door, they are not able to go to work they a relate able to go to front door, they are not able to go to work they a relate to e to go to front door, they are not able to go is that people are struggling? and to work they a relate to the go to front door, they are not able to go to work they a relate to the reality how does that relate to the reality is that people are struggling? and the prosthetics that people are the prosthetics that people are given are just not up to the purpose given are just not up to the purpose that it that it given are just not up to the purpose thatitis given are just not up to the purpose given are just not up to the purpose thatitis given are just not up to the purpose that it is built for. in given are just not up to the purpose that it is built for.— that it is built for. in given are just not up to the purpose that it is built for.— that it is built for. in what way? well, it is _ that it is built for. in what way? well, it is _ that it is built for. in what way? that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to — that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to provide _ that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to provide them - that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to — that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to provide _ that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to provide them - that it is built for. in what way? well, it is to provide them with | well, it is to provide them with healthy lifestyle, to get them fit well, it is to provide them with | well, it is to provide them with healthy lifestyle, to get them fit and active, but also be comfortable, and active, but also be comfortable, be the right fit, and be built for for be the right fit, and be built for purpose. and then you want... find purpose. and then you want... and purpose. and then you want... and purpose. and then you want... and surrey and — purpose. and then you want... and surrey and two _ purpose. and then you want... and surrey and two drops you but when it surrey and — purpose. and then you want... and surrey and two _ purpose. and then you want... and surrey and two drops you but when it is not, dealing with the is not, dealing with the consequences, what is the actual consequences, what is the actual lecture one?— lecture one?— consequences, what is the actual lecture one? ~ , , .,~ ., consequences, what is the actual lecture one? ~ , , .,~ ., lecture one? when i speak to young --eole, lecture one? when i speak to young people. they _ lecture one? when i speak to young --eole, lecture one? when i speak to young people, they _ lecture one? when i speak to young people. they are — lecture one? when i speak to young lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are — lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are heavy, _ lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are heavy, _ lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are heavy, they - people, they are heavy, they - lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are heavy, they create j people, they are heavy, they create sores, it is something which has a lecture one? when i speak to young people, they are heavy, they create j people, they are heavy, they create sores, it is something which has a massive impact on their lives. massive impact on their lives. they're not able to get out of the they're not able to get out of the front door, they are not able to go front door, they are not able to go

to work they are not able to go to to work they are not able to go to school, it has a massive impact on their lives. for me, the healthy living side of prosthetics is the platform that it gives to people to actually have ambitions, just like their able—bodied counterparts. you their able-bodied counterparts. you have been their able—bodied counterparts. you have been saying that you are quite clear that because of what you have just described a lot of amputees, especially young people, they are not getting into sports or outdoor activities, do you think that's a direct activities, do you think that's a dire . _, , . �* , activities, do you think that's a direct consequenceit's a massive direct consequenceit's a massive direct consequence, _ direct consequenceit's a massive direct consequence, when - direct consequenceit's a massive direct consequence, when you i direct consequenceit's a massive l direct consequence, when you get direct consequenceit's a massive - direct consequence, when you get to 18 years old, there is no provision by the nhs to get young people into sport activities, or the prosthetics themselves are a real hindrance and also the communication from health professionals is not forthcoming as well. we are having lots of information given to amputees around, well, you are becoming more

physically active, that's why your prosthetics are not fitting and where is what i'm saying is that we need to empower young people, because they are the leaders of tomorrow, they are the people are really going to advocate this technology and if they are not getting the right support, its a backward step. who are the next richard whitehead and johnny peacocks on the track? i'm definitely not seeing them in amount. , ,

definitely not seeing them in amou the — definitely not seeing them in amou the after—care that is after. the after—care that is needed, as well. working with the young person around the traumatic event that maybe could have caused them to lose their leg, and also the therapy needed. i think that's really important. the sustainability of this support is notjust across prosthetics is also about how we get more young people, especially in the disabled community, more fit and active and supporting them to mainstream life. it active and supporting them to mainstream life.— active and supporting them to mainstream life. it is so important in terms of — mainstream life. it is so important in terms of the _ mainstream life. it is so important in terms of the mental _ mainstream life. it is so important in terms of the mental benefits, . mainstream life. it is so important| in terms of the mental benefits, as well, but do you know the pressures that exist in terms of public finances, you just talked about the cost if you bite privately, isn't that basic problem here? in an ideal world, of course, all that would be access to people but... i’m world, of course, all that would be access to people but. . ._ access to people but... i'm a solution _ access to people but... i'm a solution based _ access to people but... i'm a solution based person - access to people but... i'm a solution based person and i access to people but... i'm a| solution based person and my solution based person and my solution is not to make an excuse saying it's too expensive. my solution is to work with people like me you have a lived experience, how do we come up with strategies to make sure people get their person

centred approach, notjust a prescription that they hand out because one amputee looks like or acts like another amputee. we want a system that actually works for the end user to enable their ambitions in life and that is what they deserve. it is our god given right to be able to be physically active but the nhs are putting barriers and blockers in place for young people and people with prosthetics, i am hearing of people that have had prosthetics and not worn them for 20 years and i'm very passionate about getting those individuals more comfortable with the system and prosthetics too. you comfortable with the system and prosthetics too.— comfortable with the system and prosthetics too. you really are and we are grateful _ prosthetics too. you really are and we are grateful for— prosthetics too. you really are and we are grateful for your _ prosthetics too. you really are and we are grateful for your time - prosthetics too. you really are and we are grateful for your time but l prosthetics too. you really are and i we are grateful for your time but we have to end it there because we're out of time and we are back with more headlines and just a moment. hello. after bringing wind gusts of more than 70mph to some parts of the uk, storm lilian is already clearing away but the weekend does

still look quite unsettled. not as windy as it has been, but still fairly windy. some heavy rain at times. equally, some spells of sunshine. there goes storm lilian. this hook of cloud on the early satellite image clearing away northeastwards. we find ourselves right now in this slightly clearer slot, albeit with some showers. the showers most frequent up towards the north and the west of the uk, parts of northern ireland and scotland. staying pretty breezy, but not as windy as it has been. these are the wind gusts we can expect around the end of the afternoon. temperatures peaking at around 22 degrees across east anglia and the south east, scotland and northern ireland more like 14 to 17 degrees. now through this evening and tonight, we will continue to see some quite hefty showers. and for the second half of the night, this stripe of cloud and rain developing across southern and eastern parts of england, just fringing into the southeast of wales. a pretty mild night towards the south, slightly cooler and fresher further north and west, where we will start with a little bit of sunshine tomorrow morning. not so further south.

heavy rain for the channel islands. rain across a good part of central and southeastern england, and in spots to the southeast of london, we have this met office yellow warning, because some areas could possibly see up to 70mm of rain, so that could well give rise to some flooding and some travel disruption. that rain tending to clear around lunchtime, some hefty thundery showers behind. northern ireland and scotland seeing a mix of sunny spells and showers, but temperatures really quite disappointing for this point in august. 13 to 18 degrees at best. so what about sunday? well, high pressure tries to build from the south without an awful lot of success. low pressure still close by, so there will be some showers. in fact, a little frontal system here, bringing some more persistent rain across northern ireland, western scotland, parts of northern england and wales through the day. a little bit drier further south and east. those temperatures may be recovering to around 20 c. monday, which is a bank holiday for many of us, of course,

it does look a little bit drier and a little bit warmer, and it is set to turn warmer still for some of us as we head through next week.
