after rafael nadal returned to the world number one spot for the first time in three years today. the spaniard said it was "unbelievable" to be tennis‘s top ranked rank man again, having first achieved the feat nine years ago. it's been a great year for nadal, who won his 15th grand slam title at the french open injune and also reached the australian 0pen final in january. mo farah‘s glittering track career will come to an end over 5,000m stuart broad says he wants to play in the 2019 ashes against australia, after passing sir ian botham on the list of england's all—time test wicket—takers. the 31 year old bowler moved ahead of botham's 383 wickets in the first—test thrashing of the west indies at edgbaston. he is second only to team—mate james anderson, who has a92 wickets. mo farah‘s glittering track career will come to an end over 5,000m at the diamond league final in zurich on thursday. yesterday he won his last ever track race in britain with victory in the men's three thousand metres at the birmingham

diamond league meeting. the 3a year old is turning his attention to marathon running but has yet to announce exactly when he'll be hitting the road... it is difficult to say how much wear and tear that is the system and when that winter might have a negative effect on performance. one of the great things about is he is physically and psychologically resilient and that brazilians psychologically emotionally and physically will continue. if it does i cannot see why he can't have an excellent marathon career. that's all sport for now. scammers are increasingly taking advantage of the good will of people looking to make donations to help in the aftermath of major tragedies, an investigation by the victoria derbyshire programme has found. the uk's fraud reporting centre — action fraud — has highlighted examples of fake fund—raising websites set up in the aftermath of the grenfell tower fire that they've managed to take down. but the investigation also found examples of organisations,

which look like charities but aren't, raising money on the street. so how can people be sure that money donated is going to legitimate causes? sean dilley reports. with more than 200,000 registered charities in the uk, you're not going to struggle to find a good cause to donate your hard—earned cash to. last year, the british public donated around £10 billion to good causes. so, how can we be sure that the money that we give on the street or online is actually going to the causes we want to support? we're buying mobility scooters for disabled adults and children. 0h, right? superman here is salim sayed, or super si. he is raising money for something called the happiness foundation, which claims it buys mobility scooters for local people. that sounds great, but it might not be the case. this happiness foundation is not a registered company or charity. fundraising like this is not illegal, but it makes it very hard to check that they do what they claim. 0nline, a number of people have raised concerns about this

happiness foundation. there was two complaints in 2014 on the happiness foundation facebook page. and this has been a problem for a not—for—profit company also called the happiness foundation. we were presenting to football's governing bodies, and i felt embarrassed. why should i be embarrassed? i haven't done anything wrong. but i felt embarrassed because i knew that if they did a search, perhaps that would come up. we tried to talk to salim sayed, but he hasn't responded to our messages. we did manage to track down one of the men behind the happiness foundation, marcus leavsley. he told us they weren't pretending to be kath temple's happiness foundation, and they do provide mobility scooters for disabled people — though he wouldn't show us any evidence for this. hello, is marcus leavsley around, please? thank you. door slams. are you there, mr leavsley? i've spoken to a man who admits he used to steal money

from charity collections. we'll call him steve. he worked for companies that raised money for armed forces charities through bucket collections and competition ticket sales. but a big chunk of the cash ended up in his and his colleagues' pockets. the term was a brucie bonus. was that a one—off, or was this more widespread? pretty much. i would say a good 80% of us were doing it. did you not feel that you were taking advantage of the public‘s generosity? yes, at times. i mean, it was. solicitor robert craig is a specialist in charity law. he says the public need to take a careful look before donating to apparently good causes. i don't think you can expect the police to do much more than deal with very obvious cases. it's to do with, what's the public interest in pursuing it? and how likely are they to get a conviction? there were more than 800 reports to action fraud about suspected charity scams in the last year. some of them were trying to profit from recent disasters. a very recent example,

and a very tragic example, would be websites and just giving pages being set up in support of the grenfell tower incident. we set up a process where we could monitor any new websites that were being set up with a link to grenfell tower. on the first day we set up the process, one that we did establish was a fraudulent website, we managed to get that website taken down on the same day and the bank account blocked. on the first day we set up the process, one that we did establish was a fraudulent website, we managed to get that website taken down on the same day and the bank account blocked. so, how do we avoid being duped by fake charities? the regulator, the charity commission, has this advice... check that street fundraisers have a charity registration number. that they are happy to give further information when asked. and when donating online, avoid requests to give cash via money transfer companies. this is a common scam. the vast majority of fundraising is legitimate. but we found grey areas where it's all but impossible to check where your money ends up. and there are scammers that are prepared to go to ever more sophisticated lengths to snatch money from those who most need it. with authorities‘ resources stretched, it increasingly falls

to us to make sure that our cash is going where we want it to. an 11—year—old boy from west yorkshire has had to have cosmetic surgery after being bitten in the face by a boxer dog. police are searching for these two men after the attack outside a fish and chip shop in robin hood's bay, in north yorkshire, last thursday. they say the boy suffered significant facial injuries. kent police have arrested a man believed to have been on the run for 22 years after absconding from sudbury jail in derbyshire. 57—year—old michaeljohn ashworth was sentenced for drug offences over two decades ago. but in 1995, with 18 months of his sentence to go, he allegedly failed to return to the prison after being released on a temporary licence. he's charged with escaping from lawful custody. at midday today this familiar sound rung out across westminster for the last time before work begins. big ben chimes. big ben isn't due to chime again —

except for special occasions — until 2021. it's part of a major refurbishment at the houses of parliament, which will see the elizabeth tower, the clock and the bell frame are repaired and cleaned. our political correspondent emma vardy, has been outside parliament this morning. earlier she told us about the controversy surrounding the silencing of the bells. the last week about the some of the bells. i thought it was a silly season story. — —

bells. i thought it was a silly season story. —— the silencing of the bells. they cannot have urgent repairs to take four years, it does not make any sense. without it will happen is the commission and the authorities will look at this and say we need to find a different solution and maybe have silence for a little while but perhapsjust the end of this year. do not think it has been doing its best for over 150 yea rs. has been doing its best for over 150 years. it is probably not surprisingly made some major renovation work. should we not accept this working to take place? but it should be done quickly. round—the—clock necessary. you saw the numberof round—the—clock necessary. you saw the number of people turned out here, ordinary people coming to listen to big ben strike 12 the last time. all the media of the world we re time. all the media of the world were here. big ben and the palace of westminster is an iconic view of

britain and me to ensure that stays there and we don't need four years to the peer clock. it is quite a bit of work to disconnect the hammers that bell bellamy connect them and i would not just ask a that bell bellamy connect them and i would notjust ask a bit that bell bellamy connect them and i would not just ask a bit too that bell bellamy connect them and i would notjust ask a bit too much of the workmen here just for the sake of what? they are saying it will be able to bowl on special occasions. —— bong. get the urgent work done close to the clock and then start big ben again and do the other work. you should not be silencing the chamber big ben for that period. so how did this get signed off? were mps completely unaware? these things are done by committee and committee

obviously sat and i guess what happened is that the board came through seeing it would take four years to the player elizabeth tower and big ben and nobody seemed to bother to mention to anyone we would actually be turning big ben off. i think from the prime minister dermot has been surprised. this will definitely feature when we come back and a couple of weeks and i hope the authorities will find a solution very quickly. there are a lot of questions though as to weather that period of four years some as well as the take place. we will have to wait and see weather all the public pressure under pressure from mps makes any difference. in a moment a summary of the business news. but first, the headlines on bbc news: the hunt for 22—year—old moroccan , younes abouyaaqoub — the driver suspected of killing 13 people in last week's attack in barcelona — is extended across europe. ten american sailors are missing after a us destroyer and an oil tanker collided,

in seas to the east of singapore. rescue teams from three countries are searching for survivors. hate crimes committed online should be treated as seriously as offences carried out face to face, according to new cps guidelines for prosecutors in england and wales. prosecutors received the guidelines today. i'm egon cossou. the chinese car company great wall motor says it's interested in buying some or all of american carmaker fiat chrysler. the two sides have already reportedly held talks about about chrysler's jeep brand. now great wall wants to hold more talks. we've been spending a lot more on our credit and debit cards this year — transactions are up by 12% on last year.

but now lenders are facing tough new rules to make sure they are lending responsibly. more in a moment. more than 100 technology leaders are calling on the un to prevent the development of so—called "killer robots". leading names in artificial intelligence, like elon musk, have warned of "a third revolution in warfare". back now to to that story about how much we're spending on our cards. latest figures show a rise in how much we're spending on credit debit and charge cards. lenders are facing new rules to prove they're not being reckless when they lend us money. sarah pennells is a personalfinance expert and runs the savvywoman website and joins me now. why are we putting some much on our cards? there are a mixture of factors. there are some really good balance transfer deals where you do not pay any interest as long as you paid back within time. i think some people think about that at my card now than i would have to pay any interest so i can manage my money that way. i also think there are some people for whom they can't

afford what they need for what they wa nt to afford what they need for what they want to buy and visit the credit ca rd want to buy and visit the credit card is a way of putting off that payment. for some of them the regulators already found that 2 million people are in arrears on their credit cards and a further 2 million all around 90% of the amount they can totally borrow other credit cards have done for the last 12 months so i think there worrying signs. how much of this is down to personal responsibility?” signs. how much of this is down to personal responsibility? i think it isa personal responsibility? i think it is a mixture. you should never borrow money you do not think he will be able to pay back that you mentioned an introduction there should be some tough new rules coming infora should be some tough new rules coming in for a credit card lenders. basically the response to that from the lenders will happen by next month so we will see some rules coming very shortly. i think there are two things are committed big difference. one is i don't think credit card companies should be able to increase your limit and then you have talked out of it. i think that

should be something you have to ask for. currently when you get your credit card statement the only figure on there in terms of how much you figure on there in terms of how much y°u pay figure on there in terms of how much you pay back is the minimum pavement. if you're in a thousand boys were the standard interest rate of 18% will take about 18 years to pay it back. but most of the bill is the figure at the bottom is the amount we should pay think that figure should go. do you think that the proposals that have been put forward on how to make sure lenders have been more responsible are enough? i think some of them are along the right lines but i think you're missing some tricks. i think some of these will be about contacting people who are making the minimum payments for certain length of time by contacting people earlier if they have missed payments. i think that's to be welcomed and is a step the right direction but i do think the credit card lenders have responsibility to be more themselves. yes, we do as borrowers but i don't think at the moment some of them are lending money that they shouldn't be lending. —— i think at

the moment. this area of increasing credit balance without asking for it, i think that should go. in other business news... the man in charge of negotiating the uk's trade deals once we leave the eu, starts his job this week. he's crawford falconer — and has more than 25 years' trade experience. the uk will need to strike hundreds of new trade deals, once we leave the eu. spare a thought for the boss of the average ftse100 company. to around $4.5 million. that's according to the accountancy group deloitte. the company says it looks as if policies aimed at capping bosses pay are working. you could be in for a nasty surprise if you charge your electric car at home — at the same time as using other appliances like a kettle.

understand the tattoo. she has a teddy bear and every time she has an operation my wife saw was a heart on it. it shows me what ever had and when i've had it. —— what i have had. i don't have a much body space and she's a very brave little girl going through what she has gone through. let's take a look at the weather. a real mixture of weather today. we have seen some tropical air moving across the uk. we will probably find the highest temperatures towards the south—west
