they together for the campaign. 50 they we re together for the campaign. 50 they were an together for the campaign. so they were an extremely and self—consciously diverse group of campaigners. what do you think the suffragettes of 1918 would make of the state of britain regarding equality for women today? they would be impressed with what women have achieved. women have achieved a great deal. but there are not enough of women in high positions with real authority to make a difference. many more mps for one thing. they would be thrilled about progress, but they will wonder why we still are battling an equal pay issue. because one of their platforms was equal pgy- one of their platforms was equal pay. and if they would have said to us pay. and if they would have said to us i'm sure, look, in 1970 you have the equal pay act. it was supposed to be rolled out by 1975. and you still have not got it. so this is disappointing. so what would they tell us to do about it? well, i think that would ask us to go back and use their own slogan which is "deeds not words" and that was a you should be making this happen. because we stop talking about it and demanded it. so i think women now

need to have more of an expressive voice, banded together more forcefully a nd voice, banded together more forcefully and more publicly like today. which was such a celebration of the past and the present and the future. and actually demand equal pay, and to keep persisting with the demand, because that is what the suffragettes succeeded, it was their absolute system. thomas moore suffragette like should we be? —— how much suffragette like should we be, not suffer just was how much suffragette like should we be, not sufferjust was notli how much suffragette like should we be, not sufferjust was not i think there were very good organisers and very vocal and outspoken. very public in their demands. quite schalke. at a range of campaign ideas. a vast repertoire of activity and fundraising. and i think we should be deploying some of the things they did because actually it worked. some, but not all. well, the suffragettes of course have been vilified for many years, for the militancy is that they promoted. but

looking with a face that the time, there was nowhere else for them to go. they were responding to violence on the street at the hands of police, in suffragette demonstrations. a really morph is a really, what was going on in prisons and how the striking and forced feeding. diane atkinson. good to have you here. think you for coming a house in scotland which was struck by lightning is likely to have to be demolished after its roof was engulfed in flames. very fortunately, no one was injured but the owner of the newly built property in lenzee in east dunbartonshire says he's been left ‘numbed' by the experience as graham stewart reports. frank malcolm is downstairs with his wife and children last night when suddenly the television went off but it was not until his neighbours rang the door bell that he realised that his roof was on fire. according to social media, a large lightning bolt hit the roof and very quickly it was engulfed by flames. thankfully, no one was injured but you can see from

the extensive damage left behind how fears that fire was. mr malcolm hughey is an architect did not want to speak on camera but he told me he has been numbed by the whole experience and although he has insurance, due to the water damage caused by putting up those claims, he reckons his houses are right off and his family only moved into this property in the last seven months. graham property in the last seven months. g ra ha m stewart, property in the last seven months. graham stewart, reporting scotland,, lenzee. time for the weather forecast. we start the working week off on conditions we are used to frequent a while, but that week onwards, it is expected to turn u nsettled. onwards, it is expected to turn unsettled. but assembly conditions tomorrow. the risk of heavy showers and storms and most of the thunderstorms in the north of england will melt away overnight, those places will be dry with clear spells but also cloud returning to the east and south and where you

where he can look his best and lap up the adulation, his game perfectly moulded to roland—garros‘ clay, he has won all the finals has played on the surface. dominic thiem is one of the few to have beaten him. that was in rome. but in paris. he matched him until the tenth game and this mistake. the set was gone minutes later. as a powerful austrian, thiem is known as the thiemenator, but the real machine was at the other end. no male tennis player has been as dominant at a grand slam as him. was there a weakness? perhaps cramp could stop him. it prompted nadal to get this done quicker, the champion to be raced through the pain. 0n clay against any opponent and his own body, rafael nadal conquers all. patrick gearey, bbc news. scotland recorded their first ever victory over england today, outshining the visitors by six runs at the grange. callum macleod's brilliant century helped the scots to their highest one day total on a record—breaking day in edinburgh.

it was a british one—two at the leeds round of the world triathlon series with vicky holland leading home georgia taylor brown.... holland, who is the olympic bronze medallist managed to recover from a difficult changeover from swimming to the bike and went on to take the victory. it's holland's third world triathlon series win but her first on home soil. georgia taylor—brown finished seventeen seconds behind for her first world series podium. i was pretty much no use and felt i was holding on all day. it took me a full lap to find my legs. i cannot believe i have won it. every time i thought i would win, i told myself not to, think about what you're supposed to be doing. finally, i thought, yeah, this is mine now. the crowd was incredible.

no matter how much i was hurting, i wanted to smile. when i went past my family, there was a big cheer and i kept smiling. it was amazing. last year i did not make the start line because i hurt my ankle the day before so when i set up the transition this morning, i said i am already a winner. in the men's race alastair brownlee wasn't involved due to injury — and his brotherjohnny was competing but pulled out after feeling unwell. the race was won by south africa's richard murray with series leader mario mola in second place. just three days after breaking the british record with a new lifetime best, dina asher—smith ran just a hundredth of a second slower to win the women's 100m at the stockholm diamond league. at thursday's meeting in oslo, she ran a 10.92 but was narrowly denied victory by ivory coast's murielle ahoure. today, the 22—year—old ran a 10.93 but managed to go one better. she beat ahoure to first place.
