a brilliant race just before 10pm. the lonely british person in the five finals tonight is in the 800 metres. he grew up in watford on the same state is anthonyjoshua so there is some sporting pedigree there. he is only 21. british medal hopes are looking slim and you have to go back to the early 2000 is when we just picked up a to go back to the early 2000 is when wejust picked up a couple to go back to the early 2000 is when we just picked up a couple of medals in 2001. halfway through it is just that mo farah gold medal so far. we asked steve who has propped at the british team on many occasion, the former javelin reckon british team on many occasion, the formerjavelin reckon holder, what he thought about britain's progress so he thought about britain's progress so far the championships. the 6—8 medals as the target but it is not going to plan, that is the simple message. there have been some

marginal performances that went the wrong way. some medal hopes, we can do how have had medals. if we were on target we would have 3—4 in the bag. it is not going to plan but it is the world championship. it is a reminder of how difficult it is there. we can have a look at the timetable for this evening. the women's javelin goes the next an hour. they'd handed metres final. then the 400 metres final, one of the blue ribbon defence. perhaps the next best medal chance isn't the relays on the final weekend. this

line is limbering up for the relays. she is simple to not have the ideal weekend. he is desperate to go out with a gold medal. the jamaicans are the reigning champions. speaking to some of the jamaican press here, he will be allowed to choose his three team—mates. we will leave you with pictures of the great man. from all of us london stadium we will have updates through the rest the evening. for now it is good night. clerc the south african president jacob sim has survived in motion of no confidence, the eighth of his premiership. this was the scene

inside the parliament as rival factions had it danced off the head of the crucial boat. the opposition had hoped that some mps would side with them as the vote was held in secret for the first time. the motion was tabled after mr zuma sacked his finance minister. this is how the result was announced. total boards, 384. yes, 177. no, 198. and there were nine abstentions.

therefore, the motion of no—confidence in the president is accordingly negative. that is the speaker of the south african parliament. this is the reaction of the south african president himself. i have just the south african president himself. i havejust come the south african president himself. i have just come to say thank you to all of you. those comrades who are in parliament who landed this supports from the membership and supporters. they came in the numbers to demonstrate that in the anc is powerful, bake and difficult to

defeat. i'm sure you remember that today the vote of no—confidence is the eighth one. always they try. that was president jacob vote. angina by the director of programmes thatis angina by the director of programmes that is social economic research institute. the vote was not close, but it was quite close. it was surprisingly close. i don't think anyone expected it and any mathematical approach you can't erupt, even though it has a secret vote and we don't know who voted each way, if use of track the number of opposition mps from the total

number, it appears that at least 26 anc mps voted with the opposition, which shows the amount of fracture and division within the mainstream of the anc. i think it is quite surprising and their doors think the anc expected this. it now needs to go back to thejohn board and think about how to respond, because the opposition is going to claim that this is a victory for them, even though they did not manage to this large president zuma because as a crisis in the anc. he seemed proud of the fact he had survived eight votes of no confidence. to the outside, it looks like his authority must‘ve been very much undermined by all this. is that true? it has undermined notjust

all this. is that true? it has undermined not just by all this. is that true? it has undermined notjust by today but systematically. that is mostly by himself, giving the crises that he has decided over and leading a noncompliant government with the country's laws. he has been central to undermining his own ability to lead his party. given that is the case, the ideologicalfractures and visions are normal in many political parties across the world. but it has been so deeply entrenched that they no longerfashioned been so deeply entrenched that they no longer fashioned themselves on a policy level but also won a personality level. he has been undermined by members of his own party who disagree with him on issues of policy. the anc‘s most recent policy conference demonstrated that. the party was split down the middle, particularly

on issues around what should we do in response to the economic crisis and how do we take the country out of accusations of state capture. what do we do about a crisis in which we have been negative rating by the credit rating agencies. these things are coming out much was starkly now. the opposition will be very pleased that they have introduced a new crisis. it does not mean the anc are dead, because they can still self correct. i'm sorry to have to cut you off but we're running out of time. what about the weather. i weather watchers have been capturing the very best of the weather and some of the worst of it

as well. it could be different from what i have sure new but there is plenty of rain still to come. not just across yorkshire, but stretching towards wales. a different story in scotland and northern ireland. you have a nice day to come but if you are near this band of weather there will be a lot of surface water and some areas will get 20—30 millimetres. if it sticks it do for most of the day you could have 60—80 millimetres or three inches. the same front will be there on thursday but for the most part they will be another decent day. this is bbc news, the headlines at seven:
