good morning. doxing. —— boxing. tony bellew has told the bbc he asked david haye and his corner to stop the fight on his way to an 11th round stoppage at the 02 arena last night. haye damaged his achilles, and was knocked down in the sixth round, but carried on despite the injury. haye was the firm favourite coming into the fight, but after the injury he could only really throw a left. bellew punched haye through the ropes in the 11th, and his corner decided enough was enough. this morning, bellew has said he broke his right hand in the third round, and is proud of what he achieved. i've just done what wladimir klitschko couldn't do. i've just done what the biggest heavyweight that's ever lived, heavyweight champion that's ever lived, in nikolai valuev, couldn't do. tonight i claimed my glory. he was hurt, he was genuinely hurt. he was in a bad way. so i carried him and his weight... believe you me, i carried him. his weight was on me. he's a heavy man! i felt the weight of that 16 stone as i carried him. so, you know, he's tried to break me, but it's

all water under the bridge. we shook hands. i'm happy i've come through tonight, i'm happy we both go home safe and i'm happy i've come to this arena again. you know what, tonight, mate, i've taken the glory like i said i would. england's women snatched a dramatic victory over the world champions usa in their second match of the she believes cup in newjersey. the only goal of the game came in the 89th minute, lucy bronze‘s strike. that came back off the bar and sub ellen white followed up to score, and keep alive the lionesses hopes in the tournament. it is a big win for the team. it is a result that has been coming — it is not a shock result for us. the team prides itself on their learning mindset, work ethic and mentality to win. it shows on the back of a tough defeat against france,

the learning mindset becoming important, learning valuable lessons. they worked incredibly hard and we found a way to win tonight. i thought we were deserved winners. liverpool have moved up to third in the premier league after beating arsenal at anfield. goals weren't the main talking point though yesterday, as nick parrot explains. the futures of arsene wenger and alexis sanchez at arsenal remain uncertain and won't have been helped by the manager leaving out his star player against liverpool. he claimed it was a tactical decision, but it soon backfired. commentator: here's mane. back across the goal! fermino, with eight minutes gone! sadio mane made it 2—0 before half—time, prompting wenger to call on the premier league's most potent striker. here's sanchez. out comes the keeper! the impact of sanchez almost immediate! the change in approach was too little too late. and georginio wijnaldum rubbed salt in the wounds in injury time. i'm strong enough and lucid enough to analyse the impact and i don't deny that alexis sanchez

is a great player. i bought him and i always played him and i think he developed well with us, but a decision like that is not easy to make, but you have to stand up for it. goals weren't the talking point at old trafford either, as manchester united failed to beat bournemouth in a bruising encounter. for the record, marcus rojo gave united the lead midway through the first half. josh king equalised after philjames brought down marc pugh. but the match will be remembered for altercations at the end of the first half that went unpunished. that was a challenge from mings on rooney and you can see that the boot catches ibrahimovic‘s head and he knew who it was and thrust his elbow back into the face of mings. he has to go, but he hasn't. yeah, he jumped into my elbow. many times on these occasions happen and i hope he didn't get injured. there wil be things highlighted more

than others, but i enjoyed it. it was a good battle all day. obviously you know what you will come up against. leicester city secured consecutive league wins for the first time this season after coming from behind to beat fellow strugglers hull city 3—1. riyad mahrez scored his first league goal since november, boosting craig shakespeare's hopes of getting the manager's job after the club sacked claudio ranieri. it could turn out to be that all‘s well that ends well at the king power stadium. quote of the weekend, hejumped into my elbow. the other results in the premier league saw middlesbrough drop into the relegation zone after losing at stoke. a late goal gave swansea an important win over burnley. a high scoring game at watford ended 4—3 to southampton and crystal palace won their first game since january at west brom. newcastle united have extended their lead at the top of the championship to five points, with a 3—1 victory at huddersfield. a penalty from matt ritchie and a goalfrom daryl murphy put the magpies ahead, before dwight gayle rounded off the win in injury time.

rangers are through to the semi—finals of the scottish cup — they beat hamilton 6—0. the referee came in for criticism. hamilton felt strikerjoe garner could have been sent off for a challenge on dougie imrie and garner went on to score a hat—trick. the hamilton boss was not happy with the officials that was not happy with tea m officials that was not happy with team defending. in the other cup quarterfinal, hibs beat ayr 3—1, and in the premiership kilmarnock lost at home to motherwell 2—1. there was success for great britain's athletes at the european indoor championships in belgrade. laura muir continued her fantastic season, taking gold in the 1500 metres in a new british record. team—mate sarah mcdonald finished sixth. 0h, fantastic. i mean, i'm just so happy!

it feels like a long time coming to win a medal and i'm so happy. to take kelly holmes' british record, was that the plan too? no! ijust wanted to run a quick race, but i never envisaged to do that. so, yeah, this is brilliant. and the success continued in the men's 60 metres sprint with richard kilty defending his title. fellow briton theo etienne, making his senior debut, finished in fifth. james ball has won gb‘s third gold medal of the day with victory in the tandem kilometre time trial. along with his pilot matt rotherham, ball pushed his team—mate neil fachie with craig mclean into the silver medal spot. earlier gb women tandems claimed a clean sweep of medals in the time trial with sophie thornhill winning gold with corrine hall. aileen mcglynn and alison patrick won silver and bronze respectively. la has been good to us. it has been

great. we came here concentrating on the pursuit and to come where we did was unbelievable. really happy. we came here not really knowing what we could do. for me to come away with the kilo world title, i never dreamt of that is an endurance rider so it has been a good day today. and jon gildea also took a world title in the c5 individual pursuit. i was iwasa i was a cyclist before but u nfortu nately, i was a cyclist before but unfortunately, or fortunately, which ever way you look at it, i had a bad accident on my mountain bike broke my leg badly. 2013! started riding again and started to racing got my aspirations set on being a paralympian, aspirations set on being a pa ralympian, really. aspirations set on being a paralympian, really. narrowly missed out on the oh so nice to come back and geta out on the oh so nice to come back

and get a world champion‘sjersey. that is the starting point on my way to tokyo. andy murray has won the dubai tennis championship for the first time, beating fernando verdasco by two sets to love. it's murray's first title this year and extends his lead over novak djokovic at the top of the world rankings. that's all the sport. and here is maxime with the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us. with me are political commentatorjames millar. and editorial director of the sunday times, eleanor mills. the front pages. i was going to tell you about the sunday times but that

is the observer. we will be talking about their story in our review. the sunday telegraph, trump accuses ba rack in our review. the sunday telegraph, trump accuses barack obama. and tony blair's a story about a secret meeting about being a middle east envoy. we are back to the sunday times. stop business cuts to save the nhs says... theresa may has been warned. and the sunday express newspaper claims nearly £150 million from the health budget was spent on overseas aid last year. let's begin. we might have more success let's begin. we might have more success talking about it than watching the graphics! the sunday times. a traditional sunday before

the budget, hand—out from the treasury, as to what they will do. what they are not going to do. the chancellor philip hammond, it is looking like a fairly dull budget, i would say. 500 million for skills, which i do not think is terribly new and 1.3 billion to combat the social ca re and 1.3 billion to combat the social care crisis, which i think probably a lot will claim is not enough, all of which will be funded by mork ats. how much room does he have to manoeuvre? how much room does he have to manoeuvre ? because how much room does he have to manoeuvre? because the economy is doing better than people thought it was, he has a bit more than he thought stop he has 27 billion he thought stop he has 27 billion he thought he would not have and he said he will build up a war chest of 60 billion said that if there is any

turbulence when we come out of the eu, he has a fighting fund. he wrote an article for the sunday times in which he talks about what he is trying to do. saying after we leave the eu, we will need more skilled workers in the uk, we won't be able to import them. this is part of the big package about the other big story today, about t—levels, a replacement for a—levels. in his article in our comment pages he talks about how this is skilling up the nation and having a war chest in reserve. the piece is full of all those lovely cliches chancellor 's love. such as an economy that works for everyone. you could do chancellor bingo. also, i want to ensure the next generation is equipped to take advantage of opportunities. and he talks about

needing an economy that competes with the world on the basis of superior talent and skills.|j with the world on the basis of superior talent and skills. i wanted to pick up on the t—levels. when i was young, you had a choice, to go toa was young, you had a choice, to go to a technical college all the more academic route and we had lots of people the skills and we have lost that. what is interesting about t—levels, it is not a new policy and it shows how little he will announce because he is re—announcing this and giving it a new title of t—levels. they think they will pay people to stay in technical education, that 110w stay in technical education, that now you get help from the government if you go to university and a loan, and people who stay doing technical qualifications until they are 19 will get the same financial support. there is a shift in emphasis. 0ur technical education is a joke and always has been. the fact they realise it will be crucial i think is important. they are talking the talk. i spoke to the schools minister and labour front bench

about this issue which is why i know it is not new. the question with this is you can talk the talk, you have got to walk the walk and that will cost cash. it does not happen tomorrow. you could put the exams in next year but it will take years for the young people to go through. i wa nt to the young people to go through. i want to go to the front page of the mail on sunday newspaper. tony blair and a secret summit. i am going to spoil it for you. it says mr blair has made no such pitch to be the president's middle east envoy neither has he had discussions on taking a role for the new president. he has been working on the peace process for ten years and does it in a private capacity and will continue to do it that way. that is a spokesperson for tony blair. we were discussing before we came on air. james said, where is paragraph 2a when they say, not sure. it is not

in the story but it has come later but still something interesting. what is interesting is the contacts between tony blair and donald trump's son—in—law. ivanka trump is friends with tony blair. they are pa rt friends with tony blair. they are part of a circle. there has been a series of meeting, definitely. this statement is interesting. it would make sense for tony blair who has been leading a middle east policy for seven years to be briefing the person who will be leading on that for the white house with the israelis. and this man of courses and 0rthodox jew. israelis. and this man of courses and 0rthodoxjew. it would be understandable for him to speak to tony blair about what is going on. if you look at the rebuttal by the spokesperson and the language, he has made no such pitch to be the

president's middle east envoy, neither has he had discussions about taking such a role. it does not mean... the meetings have definitely happen. contacts are being made. it does not fit with the big speech he made about brexit, saying populism is on the rise and he will stand up for anti—brexit, and now he is trying to be friendly with the donald trump white house when donald trump brexit are often bracketed together as manifestations of the same food on —— same phenomenon. blair was speaking at a big liberal elite powwow where george osborne attended. we have heard about the manoeuvres by george osborne and tony blair to maybe set up a more pro—remain party and so it is interesting in the residue. we heard

about the big beasts out of office who are now back in. tony blair loves america. he has always been slightly dazzled by america. not just america. american presidents. he loves a bit of the west wing. the telegraph, are the —— the ordering, he says, of the tapping of phones before the election in october. this is donald trump on twitter. 0n before the election in october. this is donald trump on twitter. on a saturday morning. really early in the morning. every saturday morning. manna from heaven for the sunday papers because we know every sunday there will be donald trump on twitter doing something amazing. this time he accuses 0bama

twitter doing something amazing. this time he accuses obama of tapping phones in trump tower. there isa tapping phones in trump tower. there is a slightly weaselly denial from 0bama's lott saying presidents can never ordered directly wiretaps, not saying it. it is a judicial issue, tapping wires. exactly. he will not say where the information came from. the obama team have a solid defence. saying the president cannot do this. it is not up to him. it is not to say somebody didn't approve it and it did not happen somewhere but 0bama it did not happen somewhere but obama seems to be in the clear and the bottom line is, if you look at 0bama the bottom line is, if you look at obama and donald trump, who would you trust? it is pretty straightforward. i read the only possible place it would come from is breitbart news. trump was reading a story on breitbart news which is when he started tweeting. the background is donald trump and his

people are furious at what they see 0bamacare's or the democrat influence in the security services linking this stuff about russia. donald trump did not endear himself to the security services when he arrived. probably a mistake. to the security services when he arrived. probably a mistakelj to the security services when he arrived. probably a mistake. ithink we said that at the time. with what is coming out it invariably turns out to be true and people need to know. he has lost his national security adviser and his attorney general is having to retreat. trump had a tantrum in the oval office according to a report because of that. how could he have an attorney general scene to be not telling the truth on over? we could do the whole half—hour on donald trump. the 0bserver. half—hour on donald trump. the observer. the watchdog probe over data misuse. a hot topic. is this exciting enough to be a splash? do

those stories get you excited? particularly the way it is written. it is obscure. it is a bit wonky. a quick summary. the observer have followed this, a company who they say make grandiose claims. to be fairto say make grandiose claims. to be fair to them it is often the 0bserver making grandiose claims. it is the idea that to hoover up all your facebook likes and online activity and they can work out what sort of person you are, how you are likely to vote, and what messages you are susceptible to and they pushed the messages to you. that is the modern world. it is a bit of that social media, be afraid. i do not think they can change people'sbrains via the media. but there are issues about data protection and issues that need to be investigated. if you like

something on facebook, should the donald trump team, the tories, labour, whoever see that? you get things popping up because you looked ata things popping up because you looked at a holiday somewhere. the times newspaper had a story about those adverts popping up on all sorts of things, car videos, islamic adverts popping up on all sorts of things, carvideos, islamic state videos. the way you are tracked around the internet is fascinating but i do not think it is good on that that where the observer has been good is analysing the ecosystem of fa ke been good is analysing the ecosystem of fake news and how they drench the internet with right wing propaganda and fed it. most people, i am thinking about my mother, they would not know that is being thrown up. thinking about my mother, they would not know that is being thrown upm journalistic terms, the case of the presentation of this, it is as clear as mud what they are after. the key

to facebook and the reason people believe the stories is it becomes from friends and family, not because it isa from friends and family, not because it is a computer saying this is a story you are interested in. we are in trouble. we need to go to facebook! the sunday times. this will provoke a lot of comment. jenni murray said changing sex cannot make a real woman and the quote, too many men who changed sex model themselves on the male view of what a woman should be. i'm sorry, i am the editor of the sunday times magazine and it is in my magazine today, by jenni murray, the trans, be proud, but do not call yourself a real woman is the headline. it came from a discussion we had when i was on woman's hour. we were talking about this. there is disquiet among quite a lot of women about men who change

themselves physically into a female form and then claim to be women. whatjenni murray form and then claim to be women. what jenni murray argues form and then claim to be women. whatjenni murray argues in form and then claim to be women. what jenni murray argues in this piece is there is a history of becoming a woman which is often about being treated as a second—class citizen, not having the same rights as men, being judged on your appearance, not being listened to. she says when men transition to become women, a lot of them, not all, have no idea about the sexual politics, feminism, some of the battles women have had to get them where they are. she mentions female vicars and a man who had been a vicars and a man who had been a vicar who became... had a sex change and became a female vicar and who paid absolutely no attention, did not pay tribute to the women who campaigned hard within the church to allow that to be possible. she is not saying they should not change. she is not being like jermaine gray,

saying they are fake women in that rather crude way, she goes out of her way to attack that —— greer. it is talking about what it means to be a woman and how you get there and how these men do not necessarily understand. it will be interesting to hear from these understand. it will be interesting to hearfrom these men if understand. it will be interesting to hear from these men if they feel that when they become women. a lot of the men, in the magazine piece, they do agree with jenni murray and say having lived as women they understand there is a whole thing around being a woman they have not understood, which is why it is an interesting piece. transgender people do know something about struggle. a different struggle, but i don't think... you certainly have to be careful about dismissing the unique problems they have is a community and in terms of getting to where they are now. jenni murray is not doing that, she is saying a lot of the men who transition do not

have a particularly good understanding of a lot of women's issues and she is specific about what she is talking about. we will leave that because we want to get to the big story of the morning. the cauliflower! this is exciting new and it has excited me because i like cauliflower. do you, james? take it 01’ cauliflower. do you, james? take it or leave it but i don't like farmers having to plough up the field because the cauliflowers have not been eaten. this is the cauliflower fathers of thanet. —— farmers of thanet. they said they will have to plough their lovely cauliflowers back because there is a glut of cauliflowe rs back because there is a glut of cauliflowers because it has been so warm. lots of cauliflowers from —— on british shells from spain. this isa on british shells from spain. this is a plea for british people to buy

british cauliflowers and eat them.|j did not know i was not buying a british cauliflower. i am from northern ireland and we always eat local produce. we have had the issue of the lack of courgettes because of the weather in spain. swap the cou rg ettes for a the weather in spain. swap the courgettes for a british cauliflower. cauliflower cheese. cauliflower rice. cauliflower pizza. our resident cauliflower expert. we will leave it on that note because twitter will be awash with cauliflower recipes. thanks for joining us. we look at tomorrow's from pages every evening on bbc news hour. and let's look at the weather. here is sarah. it is a mixture of rain and hill snow across many

parts. we have a weather fronts bringing rain and snow over high ground. in the highlands of scotland, the scene captured by a weather watcher. hill snow in wales, the pennines. down to this system moving northwards and eastwards across england and wales. behind it across england and wales. behind it a return to sunshine and showers in the south—west of england and wales. they could be gales for a time. further north, and improving picture in northern ireland and scotland. most of the rain and snow showers should clear away through the afternoon. perhaps one or two showers around in southern parts of scotland. in northern ireland, a return to dry and brighter conditions in the afternoon. across northern england, the midlands towards east anglia and north wales, you can see the outbreaks of rain. some sleet and snow over high ground. towards the south of england and wales, akira but plenty of blustery showers. for the football,

likely to see rain at white hart lane. at the stadium of light it is likely to stay bright. the bulk of rain and hill snow clears towards the east overnight with colder and clearer conditions developing with a touch of frost forming towards the vale of york for instance. rain moving into the south—west tomorrow. heavy for a time stop perhaps into south wales, but it should clear quickly. the rest of the country, not bad. an improvement to today for most with dry weather, spells and —— of sunshine. a fairly quiet start to the working week but then we will see quickly the next atlantic weather system moving in on tuesday with a dry start for made that rain and strong winds moving into western areas and the further east you are the more likely you are to stay dry

on tuesday. that sets us up for an u nsettled on tuesday. that sets us up for an unsettled theme to the week ahead. changeable, spells of rain, but some brighter interludes. this is bbc news. i'm maxine mawhinney. the headlines at ten. chancellor phillip hammond rejects calls for ‘huge spending sprees' ahead of his first post—brexit budget on wednesday. we're confident we have enough gas in the tank to see us through the journey. president trump is urged to provide evidence supporting his claim that barack obama ordered to tap his
