the potential for some thunderstorms along the south coast. these could drift north on tuesday night into wednesday and the risk of popping up anywhere during the course of wednesday. this is bbc news, the headlines. mps are considering tougher sentences for people convicted of acid attacks — after there were more than 400 offences in england and wales in the six months to april. the level of personal abuse and intimidation that election candidates face has reached a "tipping point", the head of the standards watchdog has warned. lord bew has told the bbc it was a "dangerous moment" for uk politics. the identity of the 13th dr who is to be revealed on bbc one following the wimbledon mens‘ final, with widespread speculation that the next dr could be a woman. the turkish president has addressed rallies of thousands of supporters in ankara and istanbul, on the anniversary of a foiled military coup in which more than 250 people were killed.

roger federer will be aiming to become the first man to win eight wimbledon singles titles later — as he faces the croation marin cilic in the men's final this afternoon. and lewis hamilton will go for a fourth consecutive british grand prix victory at silverstone later — he's looking for a fifth win in total that equals that of legend jim clarke. coming up in a few minutes our sunday morning edition of the papers — this morning's reviewers are the education editor of the sunday times sian griffiths and the defence editor of the evening standard, robert fox. before the papers — sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. we start with tennis. roger federer has the chance to become the first man to win eight singles titles at wimbledon later today. the swiss takes on marin cilic on centre court ,

in what will be his 11th final. federer is aiming to overtake pete sampras as the most successful male player in the history of the tournament. alex gujurani reports. it's a feeling not many people have experienced as many times as roger. 18 grand slam titles, seven here at wimbledon, the first 1a years ago. while the ponytail has disappeared, his love affair with trophy has not. his last win came five years ago. championship number seven! 2012, was the first time i won as a father, that was a huge deal for me. i was playing some of my best tennis, i returned to world number one and that as a family and for all my friends and my country was a huge deal. if i were to win here again, with family, with my first wimbledon after winning the australian open in january, he skipped

the clay—court season to focus on wimbledon. at 35, he has shown it worked. six matches played, not a single set dropped. today he faces a player hungry for the first wimbledon title. i do have that belief i can win the title here, even before i began to play a tournament here i felt that my game is really at the top level. his path to the final far more treacherous. now he is here, he will not want to let it slip. but his opponent is more than just another player. a following like no other. for roger federer, wimbledon is a home from home. spain's garbine muguruza is the women's champion after she won in straight sets to win her first wimbledon title yesterday. she beat 37—year—old venus williams 7—5, 6—0. williams was playing in herfirst wimbledon final since 2009,

but after a tight first set she was well beaten. it's muguruza's second grand slam title after she won last yea r‘s french open. i had the hardest match today against venus. she is an incredible player. i grew up watching her play so it was incredible to play the final. sorry. two years ago i lost against serena and she told me one day i was going to maybe win so two years after, here i am. heather watson and her finnish partner henri kontinen are the defending champions in the mixed doubles. they will play in the final again on centre court later after the men's final. and they'll face the top seeds jamie murray and martina hingis. the pair hadn't played together before this year's tournament but both have won the title previously with different partners — hingis, who also has singles and doubles titles at wimbledon, won two years ago and murray did back in 2007. england's cricketers

have a battle on their hands , if they're to save the second test against south africa. the tourists were bowled out for 335 but england crumbled in their reply. all out for 205, south africa starting this morning with a lead of 205 runs at trent bridge. you're going to have days like this i am afraid and especially with a young—ish side you will have days like this. you just want to get them to a minimum. these days are frustrating but, like so, what is done is done. we need to come back tomorrow, dust ourselves down and try to get back into the game if we can. lewis hamilton will start the british grand prix on pole today. he was fastest in qualifying — by more than half a second. that delighted the crowd at silverstone, who could witness history this afternoon... patrick gearey reports.

as they thunder away to a perfect start... silverstone is where the road began. it hosted the first race for formula i and many of its most famous ones. now, 50 years afterjim clarke won the british grand prix here for the fifth time, a new hd hero is hoping to do the same. lewis hamilton matched clark's records 8 pole positions yesterday. his last lap was half a second better than anybody else‘s. in fi, half a second is an age. fans have seen hamilton at his best but how much longer will they be able to watch formula i here? the circuit has activated a break clause in their contract to host the sport in a row over money. so the speculation that the race may move to another circuit or even the streets of london after 2019. but for drivers, whether active or retired, silverstone is special. silverstone is like wimbledon. you need to keep the legendary venues. silverstone is so legendary and historic. there were racing there in the ‘505. so we do need to stay there. silverstone 2017 is expected to be the best attended race on the calendar. 0rganisers insist silverstone 2117 could be as well. we love putting on formula 1 races here.

the british racing drivers club is potty about f1 as well. we want to do it and i am sure we will find a way of achieving it. 100 years down the line we will be looking back and genuinely saying this is the home of f1 in this country. never mind about the future for now. lewis hamilton, after all, may be just hours from history. chris froome reclaimed the leader's yellow jersey after stage 1a of the tour de france in the pyrenees. the team sky rider finished a second behind stage—winner michael matthews but overtook the previous leader fabio aru. froome now has a 19 second lead. ian poulter has a share of the lead heading into the final round of the scottish 0pen golf. he's on nine under par along with another englishman callum shinkwin and andrew dodt of australia. poulter, who finished second in the players championship back in may, went round in 71. three birdies for him, this approach shot on the eighth helping him to one of those,

his playing partner 24—year—old shinkwin, ranking outside the world's top 400, had a mixed round — but did manage an eagle on the 14th. there he goes. england's under 19 football team are the new european champions. manchester city's lukas nmecha scored the winner as they beat portugal 2—1 in georgia. it's the third title for an england youth team this summer — after success in the under—20's world cup, and the toulon tournament. that's all the sport. now on bbc news, here's the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers are saying today.

with me are sian griffiths, education editor at the sunday times and robert fox, defence editor at the evening standard. today's front pages. the sunday times reports a cabinet office row in which the chancellor philip hammond is said to have referred to public sector workers as "overpaid". the paper reports general ‘astonishment‘ from the rest of the cabinet. the independent reports a poll that suggests that a majority of voters would be happy with a tax rise to see the salaries of emergency services staff go up. brexit negotiations are on the front page of the observer, with a warning of chaos ahead and a former eu ambassador saying the talks have a one in three chance of collapsing. the sunday telegraph leads with the salaries of the bbc‘s highest earners, suggesting there is a gender pay gap — they will be published next week. and there's a great image of garbine muguruza's balancing her wimbledon plate on her head. the mail on sunday says the french government and banking chiefs are engaged in a plot against the british banking sector. so let's start. the front page of

the sunday times, your paper, sian. chancellor says public sector is overpaid and these are remarks that the paper has got from five separate sources? at augusta. it's a great story. it's philip hammond saying that they cabinet metjoe murphy meeting on sector are overpaid. he refused to be lift the pay cap because he says they earn 10% more than private sector workers taking into account pensions. what is really giving us the headlines for that is on several occasions he apparently used the word overpaid, and of course at the moment, you know, after the election, with a mood in the country as it is, that is such a strange

thing to say. teachers are doing that school funding should be higher and teachers salary should be higher and teachers salary should be higher and we have seen the recruitment drives and schools, and it does not ca ptu re drives and schools, and it does not capture the mood of the nation. i guess it is true that if you look at pensions, public sector pensions are generous. you can make this argument about the 10% differential, but against that, public sector workers have actually seen their income fall in real terms over the past seven yea rs, in real terms over the past seven years, and it just in real terms over the past seven years, and itjust seems to me an extraordinary miscalculation, really. as though he hasn't learned anything from what has been happening of the last few weeks. anything from what has been happening of the last few weekslj feel happening of the last few weeks.” feel duty bound to fake the treasury quoting their confirms the chancellor has talked about public sector workers of having it in percent premium, because of pensions, but denied he used the word overpaid. many put that on the

record. robert wood, what is so interesting about that, is that other cabinet ministers. such as johnson and goes say the public sector workers should get a pay rise —— boris johnson michael gove. sector workers should get a pay rise -- boris johnson michael gove. this is the player in the paper and. no fewer than five people leaked the story of a confidential cabinet meeting. because our defence correspondent, i can hear the torpedoes leaving the tubes and they are sinking phil, forensic spreadsheet philip hammond, potential leader, you are sunk. that is what's going on, it wiped it out, tin—eared. i experienced him when he was defence secretary and he is

known as spreadsheet bill, he looks at the bottom line of the finances, he looks at the accounts. but he doesn't get the hinterland. he talks, albeit privately, without a sense of irony, about a list at the time of grenfell tower, of the need to reward public services. and the public now feel that the public and emergency services, particularly as sian mentioned, are under rewarded. i know the 10% and so one, actually it is people like senior civil servants, senior military, senior diplomats, and i hearthem banging on at meeting after meeting. they are an index linked, very, very substantial pensions. that is part of the inequality and this will play very, very badly, i think, of the inequality and this will play very, very badly, ithink, with of the inequality and this will play very, very badly, i think, with the public as a whole. but it is a

political game, it is part of this awful expression of being on manoeuvres. most people in this cabinet seems to be fighting each other. it's so interesting because innocents we've had this story of the prime theresa may saying looking at the pay public sector pay cap will stay, it didn't but come a —— iddon becoming front—page story.” think it is a death warrant for the government. they will find it difficult to fight a tamil election which won't be in five years' time, i protect it will be in a austerity ticket —— fight a general election. we will talk more about brexit, a large component of the brexit vote was the sustained effect of austerity. they are on a high risk game. we will get on the brexit

surely but we want to look at one other story on the sunday times, your story, sian and the new gcses that have been sapped by 16—year—olds this year and all the spirit? all i found this really interesting. ididn't all i found this really interesting. i didn't interview with the new chief inspector. i didn't expect her to come from this angle. but she is really worried coming into the job that kids are not getting a broad and balanced education. she has seen in schools and teachers drilling kids with their gcses and for all gcses. they are taking three instead of two years to teach them, kids to think their gcse options at 13. 0thers think their gcse options at 13. others such as art, music and drama, all those we think of a balanced education, are often the things kids become passion that abounds, are being squeezed out of the curriculum. there is a feeling of

schools are becoming almost like factories. we get new gcses in maths and english this summer, with the new grading scale —— grading scale. a lot of parents don't know that they are a start to g and they will be harder than in the past. the whole thing is bubbling up to be a com plete whole thing is bubbling up to be a complete mess, to be honest, in august. we will brace ourselves. let's move on. staying with your paper, sunday times getting a lot of coverage today. lots of coverage on acid attacks. in the latest acid attacks, a child has been laid for the grooviest bodily harm and other serious offences. we -- gbh. we are not talking about that specific case. we have seen an area of london where it becomes a fashion. look at the national

statistics, the incidence of the attacks has doubled. it is a fashion and it is disturbing. it seems to be now the thing. almost in the wave knife crime came in as an epidemic among a certain category of teenager, a demographic. i'm not doing it by class or whatever. the point is, the thing raised by amber rudd, who is effective in addressing it, you are looking at the wrong end of the tell us that if you go have it too is sentencing policy. in the age group we talk about, sentencing isn't much of a deterrent. i think its greatest huge global questions about policing, about community relations, about what is going on. there is a subculture in a lot of these inner cities where things are breaking down. and this kind of

outrageous attack is completely acceptable. equally we have that licensing regimes for this substance, it's jolly difficult to do. why would you want sulphuric acid? you can make it easily. one of the more the suggestions was stopped and searched policies to try and catch people carrying acid and actually it is becoming a problem in schools. we found 12 year were taking acid to schools and sports drinks bottle. it is quite frightening. we come from north london where there has been a spate of attacks. there are a group of children who ride in balaclavas and bikes via live and i myself feeling, i regarded them as slightly worryingly and there might snatch my phone. and nowi worryingly and there might snatch my phone. and now i think i have to keep well away because they might have acid which is a life changing attack. absolutely. let's move on,

give the other papers a look. let's look at the observer. former civil service head warns theresa may of brexit chaos. 0verwritten? 0r underwritten? i write for a bit of the brexit chaos paper as well. our points and warnings have been good in the standard. we are up there with the observer in the guardian. they are quoting the ambassador but also their former head of civil service and really very much at the helm, and someone i have known well, for whom the expression tough—minded is an understatement. it is chaotic. lam rather is an understatement. it is chaotic. i am rather dismayed, is an understatement. it is chaotic. lam rather dismayed, being is an understatement. it is chaotic. i am rather dismayed, being from the eurotrash tendencies, being an anglo dutch family and working in italy

extensively, at how little of europe is being understood by this. we come onto another story of the male from a french conspiracy. but here we are so a french conspiracy. but here we are so badly prepared for this. i have been taught to buy a number of senior civil servants and diplomats who are extremely worried about this. and the other side of the negotiations, so—called, are extremely worried about how unprepared everybody is. it's highly complex. they are not even asking themselves forming a david davis all liam fox or theresa may even, have they any understanding about what they any understanding about what the shape of europe is going to be? we now have to think in six months's time, in18 we now have to think in six months's time, in 18 months' time, one thing thatis time, in 18 months' time, one thing that is sure, the observer are pointing to as well, no way billy

ha rd pointing to as well, no way billy hard and fast exit negotiation position being prepared by march 20 19. this is extremely difficult. angela merkel and macron are in a project that has gone for some time on reshaping europe. it cannot go on asa on reshaping europe. it cannot go on as a single speed europe. things like the olive oil belt, the problems of migration and brexit, and migration particularly is top of it. i want to reshape. angela merkel pointed this do david cameron, cameron says i will win the vote and we are headed for a difficult tamil election around 2019. the job will be far from done a rampant —— general election. brexit plot to wreck britain —— french plot to great britain in the daily mail, what do you think? the

story is france is allegedly threatening to disrupt and destroy the city and french executives are offering money to france to move from london to france. to move to paris. this is all from a memo from jeremy brown? the city of london's brexit envoy? he has met banking chiefs in paris and written this memo to the mail on sunday. i love the headline. bombshell memo leaked to them are so spiteful plan to destroy the city at any cost. so the sta kes a re destroy the city at any cost. so the stakes are very high! you can see them rubbing their hands with glee with that headline. mail on sunday, let's lighten the tone slightly on the front page, jodie whittaker, broad church star, tipped to be the first doctor who. i don't know the first doctor who. i don't know the first thing about doctor who. oh,

come on. it's a lovely story, it's such fun. what has to be said, the outgoing doctor, peter capaldi, he has raised it to a new level. fabulous actor, who real hero worship, he and david tennant between them did such a good job. because we also have david tennant's broad church farm partner, olivia colman. but we have another answer, transgender. he contains identity, it must be a transgender doctor who? evenif it must be a transgender doctor who? even if it's not a transgender doctor who, this idea it is going to bea doctor who, this idea it is going to be a woman and the first female doctor who. that will really play for young people for whom this whole idea that you can choose your identity, you can be male orfemale

gender binary, that is such a lovely modern idea. but i am so perplexed, i thought he could only have 12 regenerations and this is the 13th, is that right? when will they put those stars of another genres, john sargent or ed balls? that would be a turn—up for books. sargent or ed balls? that would be a turn-up for books. the power of the imagination, they have done a terrificjob. imagination, they have done a terrific job. we find out today don't we? straight after the tennis. talking about gender, let's go to the front page of the sunday telegraph, more traditional gender story, bbc braced for pay row. you must be in the middle of it. i first came to the bbc 49 years ago and it's always been around. this is based on the fact that later this

week, the salaries of over 100... those that are concealed by a commercial confidentiality company, we won't know about. i think this is a terrific tilting point because we name names here, fiona bruce, apparently gets half a million. some of the big radio stars like nick robinson, presenter of the today programme, ifind robinson, presenter of the today programme, i find it difficult personally, to where salaries like this. he gets very high six figures. 20 seconds i have to let sian have saved. gender pay... ifind 20 seconds i have to let sian have saved. gender pay... i find this very. get more. women earn less money than men do and that is what disclosing the gender pay gap is about. it'll be interesting to see on the today programme, sarah montague, john humphrys, what do

they get paid? we find out on wednesday. thank you for watching. that is it for the papers, my thanks to our guests. just a reminder we take a look at tomorrows front pages every evening at 1040 here on bbc news. hello. yesterday was cloudy and damp for many. think brightening up from the north today, good spells of sunshine to be had here but that's not. we come on the south that uk we have some thick cloud, bringing with it outbreaks of light and patchy rain. we see the satellite sequence here. worsley food tastes central —— roughly that sweeps through the south with the odd spot of rain in wimbledon.

behind it, by the skies and sunshine, a breeze in north scotland and mostly dry in the afternoon. 19 degrees in aberdeen, similar temperatures in belfast. 19—21d in northern england and more on the way of sunshine coming through in the north of wales. the main area of cloud further south. the rain by the stage light and patchy but the risk of rain in the wimbledon area. later on today, and a lot of cloud generally. it will be dry much of the time but a bit of rain later on. the wind is quite light as well. 24-25d in the wind is quite light as well. 24—25d in the south—eastern corner. whatever rain is left clues to the english channel, the skies clear behind that but rain for a town in western scotland. by the end of the night, not particularly cold, in stornoway, around 13—14 for cardiff and london. breezy tomorrow, that of

rainfor and london. breezy tomorrow, that of rain for the northern isles before the bulk of the uk, a fine summer day. light winds and a good deal of sunshine and temperatures will respond, it'll be a warm day quite widely, 23—24d in belfast and aberdeen, similar in manchester, could be as high as 27—28d and south—east. a hot day the sun. in the tuesday, a lot of fine weather to be had but we have to look towards the south and west for potential thundery showers to drift in. there could be quite a bit of rain in the short space of time. the thundery drift north on tuesday night into wednesday. showers cropping up anywhere on wednesday. by cropping up anywhere on wednesday. by thursday, the temperatures come down by a you degrees. —— a view degrees. this is bbc news. the headlines at ten. the chancellor defends his position

on public sector salaries. public sector workers are paid an average more than workers in the private sector. they are paid about 1896 premium. acid attack offenders could face life sentences as a new review looks into classifying corrosive substances as dangerous weapons. a lot of victims have said that their lives have been regent, so why is there not sentencing to make sure
