some. hottest week of the year for some. heatwave weather is back, some parts will enjoy or engineer. very hot and humid weather throughout this week. but it's not everywhere. as we look at the big picture, follow the blue arrows. it doesn't indicate its cold but it's fresher air blowing up from the atlantic towards scotland and northern ireland as we start this week with temperatures not too far from average. follow the orange arrows and the air coming from africa, you can see it hitting the midlands, eastern and south east england, where that met office amber alert is in force. this is where we will see temperatures breaking 30 celsius this week. hot sunshine into norfolk today but with cloudy skies and a weather front in the fresher, less hot areas. there is a weather front at the moment and some outbreaks of rain are affecting

parts of scotland and northern ireland, as this gradually sinks a bit further south over the next few hours, a separate weather front bringing outbreaks of rain towards parts of north—west england and north—west england later today with the odd shower possible in wales and south—west england. it is dry where it is hot, fresh with sunny spells in the far north—west of scotland, humid with the heater crossed east anglia and the southeast and much of the midlands. we are expecting 31—32 this afternoon. into tonight we are going to take our weather front and move it further south, away from northern ireland but still lingering through southernmost scotland. elsewhere overnight it is mainly dry, parts of southern england could see mist and fog patches, nothing widespread. the other feature of the weather this week is why it's so hot and warm overnight, so increasingly

difficult for sleeping overnight. wea k difficult for sleeping overnight. weak weather fronts close by but it's an indication if you are to the north of these weather fronts, here in the less hot fresher air but still really pleasant. many in northern ireland and scotland seeing sunny spells, bar the odd shower in eastern scotland. south—west england may see a shower, not out of the question in the south—east but most staying dry. still with a range of temperatures and the fresher air in scotland, northern ireland, parts of north—west england. further south and east, higher temperatures and the real heat and humidity. as we look further ahead into wednesday, we've got a weather front flirting with north—west scotland and maybe the west of northern ireland. there could be a shower in east anglia and the southeast but it's more likely you will avoid them. that's where the heat is holding on. elsewhere, temperatures rising a bit more

wednesday — birthday. in cardiff on thursday we are expecting 28 degrees, 25 in edinburgh. into the weekend all parts seeing the cooler airfora time. weekend all parts seeing the cooler airfor a time. don't bank on it lasting too long, the heat building again next week. a reminder of our main story this lunchtime: an amber heatwave alert is issued for parts of england, with people being urged to stay out of the sun at the hottest part of the day. of the sun at the hottest that's all from the bbc news at one. of the sun at the hottest so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. good afternoon, it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. the new open champion francesco molinari is enjoying having won his first majortitle but says he might have to change his phone number because it hasn't stopped ringing. his most precious text, one from costantino rocca, his idol,

formerly the most successful italian golfer. that is until molinari's moment came at carnoustie, winning the open by two shots — the first italian to win a golf major. it was a fascinating final round, the lead changing hands hole by hole, a group of americans, including tiger woods rose to the top, justin rose and rory mcilroy also challenged. but it was the italian who produced a bogey—free round to win by two shots and claim the claretjug. i think it was important to break the streak that we had winning majors. it was great to see rory and justin up their fighting it out to the end and they have a really

strong team but we gave them a good fight. it's a rest day at the tour de france, before the final stretch to the champs elysees on sunday. the riders get going again tomorrow in the pyrenees but the big question for the next six days is will geraint thomas hang on to the yellowjersey? he is one minute and 39 seconds ahead of his teammate and tour champion chris froome. it's quite funny, because everyone is so keen to try and talk up this rivalry, but it doesn't exist. we are not looking at each other as rivals, we are looking at the other guys, in third, fourth and fifth, they are the ones who could put us under pressure. but between us, it just doesn't exist. it's just about keeping those guys behind us, really. and not rising against each other and then letting somebody else win, that would just be the biggest sort of hiccup in, i don't know about tour history, but it would be pretty bad. arsenal midfielder mesut ozil has quit international football, saying he's faced "racism and disrespectful

behaviour" in germany because of his turkish roots. germany failed to get beyond the group stages of the world cup in russia and the arsenal forward felt he was unfairly treated after being photographed with turkey's president erdogan in may. referring to the german football assesiatien‘sréhief; i richard grindel, ozil said, "i will no longer stand for being a scapegoat for his incompetence and inability to do hisjob properly". everton are hoping to complete the signing of brazilian forward richarlison from watford within 2a hours in a deal that could eventually be worth £50 million. the 21—year—old is due to complete a medical today. new everton boss marco silva signed richarlison from fluminense last summer when he was in charge at vicarage road. he scored five goals in his first 12 premier league matches. that's all the sport for now. i'll have more for you in the next hour. thank you very much, see you later

on. labour mps will tonight debate whether the party's new code of conduct goes far enough to tackle anti—semitism. the new guidelines, which were adopted last week, have been criticised by somejewish organisations and labour members. the party says it has re—opened a consultation on the code which is robust and internationally recognised. naomi wimborne is a founding member ofjewish voice for labour. speaking to norman smith, she said that labour would resolve this controversy by accepting the international code. there is no such thing as an agreed international code. there is a document that has been pushed the many years now by pro israel organisations and the problem with it is that it includes in its provisions elements that are designed to prevent certain kinds of criticism of israel and zionism. it is designed to do that. the danger

this presents has been identified by manyjewish commentators. we and manyjewish commentators. we and many of our friends really resent the fact that it is presented as if there's one internationally recognised definition and all deuce wanted. we aren't. the most coherent critics have been leading jewish intellectuals, a leading expert on anti—semitism, and even kenneth stern, an american academic, who drafted the original document which has morphed into this because it re presses has morphed into this because it represses freedom of speech, and why do people adopt it with such alacrity. if you go to a local authority and government body and say, we have this thing which will get rid of anti—semitism, people will go, oh, my god, we all hate anti—semitism, take. i've been in council meetings where document is presented, there is no debate. it's

a fake presented, there is no debate. it's afake and presented, there is no debate. it's a fake and we are being snowed with this thing. what labour has done is to really coherently take on board everything that is good about it, everything. you can look at it line by line. what they've done where it is dubious, where it endangers freedom of speech, they have expanded its, discussed it. is it anti—semitic to say that israel is a racist state? maybe, but often not. you have to be free to say that. mostjewish you have to be free to say that. most jewish organisations, you have to be free to say that. mostjewish organisations, pretty much every strand has been critical of labourfor much every strand has been critical of labour for not adopting the whole thing. is the point is not that if somebody sees something as racist, they feel it is racist, you should give regard to them, rather than assuming they know better. of course you should and that is what was said into the enquiry into the death of

stephen lawrence, that you should have regard to the perception of the victim. this is absolutely critical, he did not say that that alleged victim as the absolute right to decide and pass judgment on the person they allege is guilty of race hate. that's a completely different thing. these people from thejewish community are doing all of us a terrible disservice by saying only due may say if they are a victim. if i say that person is an anti—semite, i don't expect the law to believe me. i expect them to look into it. you know this has been going on for months and months in different guises. can jeremy corbyn months and months in different guises. canjeremy corbyn actually draw a line under it? this is controversial to say, the reason for the row is not genuine concern about

real anti—semitism. there is lots around in poland, on the streets of westminster. it is becoming terrifying that we even really are facing a rise of the right supremacists right. alljeremy corbyn can do to satisfy his critics would be to resign and then it would all stop. this was all a proxy for attacking mr corbyn‘s leadership stop the it's been manipulated... look where we are. tory government is in meltdown. what is the parliamentary labour party doing? instead of sitting down in a collegiate fashion and discussing strategy for how to deal with the situation in parliament, they are attacking labour as the greatest threat to jew in attacking labour as the greatest threat tojew in this country. the trouble is nobody believes in. you are thinking, what is all this about, it's dangerous for us. founding member ofjewish boys were

labour speaking to norman smith. a new drug which can treat and cure the recurring form of malaria has been approved by regulators in the united states. some 8.5 million people fall ill with this type of malaria every year. tafenoquine is the first drug to get approval for the disease in 60 years. our global health correspondent smitha mundasad reports. malaria, a disease that can cause untold misery and sometimes a disease that can strike again and again and again. that's because in vivax malaria, the most common type of malaria outside sub—saharan africa, the parasite can go to sleep in the liver and re—awake weeks or years later, causing recurring illness. it's a debilitating disease. i've seen young children get infection after infection until they get sicker and eventually succumb to the actual malaria or other diseases that come along at the same time, such as pneumonia or diarrhoea. unlike other treatments, the drug tafenoquine,

made by glaxosmithkline, can flush the parasite out of the liver after a single dose. the current treatment that's been around for many decades is a 14—day course and we know in the real world, very few patients actually complete that course and that leaves them exposed to further infection and tafenoquine is effective afterjust a single dose and therefore will be much easier for that patient. the hope is that getting rid of the sleeping parasite will not just treat the individual but will ultimately mean fewer and fewer people carry the disease, stopping it spreading onto others. authorities in the united states have said it is effective, but the drug is not without its side—effects. for example, people may need blood tests to check it is safe for them to use. health experts will now need to consider whether to make it available in the countries that need it most.

smitha mundasad, bbc news. one of the uk s largest mortgage in the number of people getting down valuations on houses. that's when a lender thinks a property is worth less than someone has agreed to pay for it. and these down valuations are leading to housing chains breaking down. rick kelsey reports. getting your first house is never easy but for some it's getting even harder. it wasn't until quite far on in the process when we had the mortgage valuation come back that we faced all the issues. ebony and jalisa have been told by their bank twice that the houses they've agreed to buy are not worth the sale price. we got right through to the very end stages of buying a house that we really, really liked and had our heart set on. and then we came up against problems when the mortgage valuation came back and we had a down valuation of £10,000. a down valuation is when after agreeing a price

for a house with a seller of, say, £200,000, your bank comes in and checks the house is worth what you say it is. they send a surveyor but they value it at less than that — say, £10,000 less. if the buyer can't renegotiate they may have to find that extra 10,000 in cash because the bank will only lend based on what they're told the house is worth. we went back and we tried to renegotiate to see if the buyers would meet it, or if they thought that that was reasonable or not and they literally turned round and was like, we cannot take the house down ten grand. there is no chance. the second time it happened for a similar amount. so again we were out £10,000 again, wasn't it? yeah. fortunately the seller this time, unlike in our first experience, they were happy to come and meet us halfway. so you've got this £5,000 that

you've got to make up. how are you going to get around that? we had to find the money. we had to find £5,000 in a very limited amount of time. yeah. so we had to speak to family and pull family together and after a while we are going to have to start paying it back. ebony and jalisa's case is far from unique. this programme has learned that at the uk's largest mortgage broker group london & country more than half of its staff are now seeing down valuations on a daily basis. at the uk's second—biggest online estate agents emove, one in five of their houses are now being down valued. surveyors are under obligation and they have insurance covers so they make the right decision, so when it is happening sometimes it can be somebody from out of the area who is maybe overcautious, or it can just be another surveyor knowing

that the market is slightly softening and therefore they are being a bit overcautious to cover their back. down valuations aren't anything new but many mortgage advisers we have been speaking to say that this is the most they've seen them happening since the financial crash and those who are affected the most by them tend to be those who have really small deposits for their homes or those who are remortgaging after doing a bit of work. the banks who employ the surveyors told us valuations help borrowers avoid paying over the odds. yet down valuations are costing people money, at least in the short—term. and it's also adding to the slowdown in the housing market. for ebony and jalisa they hope buying their next house won't be as complicated as this one. rick kelsey reporting. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news... the met office has issued an amber heatwave alert for parts of england,

warning people to stay out of the sun this week. three men are arrested over a suspected acid attack on a three—year—old boy in worcester. the uk government has abandoned its objections to the united states applying the death penalty in the case of two notorious islamist militants. in the business news... ryanair says its profits have been hit by higher wage costs as the airline faces strikes by staff over pay and conditions. it said higher oil prices and a fall in fares also dented profits in the last three months, which fell 20% to £285 million. and there'll be more strikes in the next few days. pilots in dublin strike on tuesday, while cabin crew in europe strike later this week. barclays is to create up to 2,500 jobs in glasgow, in a major boost to scotland's financial services sector. it will double barclays' current workforce in scotland.

its technology, functions and operations teams will be based on a campus at the planned buchanan wharf development. tesco's latest store design is veiled in secrecy — no—one outside the company knows what the new—look stores are going to be like, but the thinking is they'll be designed to challenge the discounters aldo and lidl. they are planned for wandsworth, london, chatteris, cambridgeshire and immingham, lincolnshire, and some are suggesting they could be called jack's, after tesco founderjack cohen. manufacturing has had a good year — eef, the uk's manufacturing organisation says businesses across all sectors have been thriving — it's coming largely from exports as the global economy has been growing and the rise in commodity prices — the price of metals and raw materials — has been on the up and that's helped some of the country's traditional manufacturing heartlands,

the north east, the south east and west midlands. the future though has a number of unknowns — some could be helpful, others less so. there's the government's industrial strategy — that could be a bonus, there's the prospect of trade wars — a negative. there's the productivity question, and just in case you'd forgotten — there's brexit. joining us now is lee hopley, chief economist at eef. first, let's look at what has been happening and why we've had such a good year. manufacturing over the last 12 months has actually performed quite strongly. you alluded to the global growth picture which has been very supportive of the sector which has really driven a lot by overseas demand. as you mentioned, it's been based across sectors and we've also seen positive trends in output and increased orders reflected across all regions

of the uk. the extent to which we can rely on that road —based growth going forward is increasingly open to question. we are seeing more risks on the horizon and i think a lot of those are coming from external sources as well as the brexit question you mentioned. before we go into that, let's talk about the industrial strategy. it was quite interesting. you put a lot of reliance on that in your report and it could help the whole sector quite substantially in the coming yea rs. at quite substantially in the coming years. at what stage are we at and how much optimism do you have? the importance of industrial strategy is clear. we know we have big investment challenges right across the economy at the moment and for all the positive numbers that we are seeing on output and growth across manufacturing we are not seeing that replicated in investment intentions. having some real clarity about whether government policy will focus its efforts domestically will be key to unlocking some of that long—term investment, particularly in manufacturing. where are we at the

moment? we have various announcements and white papers from the government. it just announcements and white papers from the government. itjust doesn't feel it's not sufficient momentum behind it's not sufficient momentum behind it given the nature of the investment and productivity challenge the economy faces at the moment. a couple of days before recess, it would be good to start the summer with some more positive news on that front. 0k, the summer with some more positive news on that front. ok, let's tackle brexit. most questions on brexit end up brexit. most questions on brexit end up as, we don't know. i want to ask you how well do you think manufacturers are prepared for the various scenarios we might have lined up over the next nine months? i think there's a huge spectrum is still at this point. i think when we talk to members at the beginning of 2018, there was a cohort of mainly large companies that felt they had sufficient contingency plans in place and were looking at some of the scenarios. once you work down the scenarios. once you work down the supply chain, the event to which

there is sufficient preparedness is much more questionable. smaller companies in particular are struggling with what some of the potential outcomes might be even still. finally, the global outlook and the trade problems, we think of these trade wars in china and the us, what does that have to do with us? does it have much to do with us and your members? really it does. being spent to which economists are looking at this is an emerging risk for the economy is important for uk manufacturers. the introduction of some tariffs on metals and steel in particular is already worrying parts of the sector. if that's extended and start hitting business confidence not just and start hitting business confidence notjust in the uk but some of our major markets, i think we are going to feel the draft of that over the second half of the year potentially. that could be a big knock to growth. grades to talk to you, thank you so much. there has been a "significant" rise in the number of homes being valued by mortgage lenders at less

than what buyers have agreed to pay. they are called "down valuations". acccording the uk's largest mortgage advisers, london and country, lenders are increaingly saying agreed prices are too high, meaning the buyers have to pay thousands of pounds extra up front to avoid the sale collapsing. people who own electric cars could soon benefit from cheaper energy. it's because of so—called flexible charging. regulator ofgem has announced plans to encourage owners to recharge cars at times when electricity is cheaper, say during an off—peak period, or when plenty of renewable energy is being generated. if you can make it work, you could be able to have say, free electricity at weekends. the government has said full—fibre broadband should be fitted as standard in all new homes. it's part of a new national telecoms strategy, which aims to have full—fibre broad bandcoverage in the uk by 2033. the uk has slipped from 31st to 35th place in the global broadband league tables,

and 25th in europe. only 4% of uk premises have a full—fibre link — compared to 79% in spain and 95% in portugal. the figures on the ftse down the touch. barclays, no reaction really touch. barclays, no reaction really to the opening in scotland. the pound is looking a little bit weak. that's it. back in about an hour. thank you very much indeed. a group of divers has been photographed swimming with blue sharks off the cornish coast. diver charles hood took pictures of fellow divers close to blue sharks, just off penzance. swimmers have previously been warned to stay out of the water after another blue shark was spotted in st ives harbour. blue sharks are seasonal visitors to british waters,

but it's thought the warm summer weather has led to an increase in the number of sightings. more warm summer weather to come as nick miller can tell us. is it one? i hadn't noticed. the beads of sweat around my upper lip, you will see more of that on weather forecasters' lips. the weather stays across' of uk. hot sunshine across south—east england, sunny spells already, temperatures have broken the 30 degrees mark in some places. feeling fresher and cloudy skies we re feeling fresher and cloudy skies were some in scotland and northern ireland as the weather front moves to revere. different air masses, different types of air coming into the uk as we start the week. blue arrows indicating fresher feeling aaron and northern ireland, parts of wales and western england, orange arrows from africa delivering heat across south and south—east england, where we see the highest

temperatures were several days to come this week near 30. hot, humid and the nights difficult for sleeping. a range of whether this afternoon. one weather front affecting parts of scotland and northern ireland, and other giving outbreaks of rain in north—west england, fringe northern wales. dry, variable cloud sunshine and a range of temperatures 17 degrees up to ready to somewhere in the south—east and east anglia. tonight, this weather front moves bury south, clearing from northern ireland. it grinds to a halt across the borders. you may see a shower to the north of that though most will stay dry. some fog patches possible in southern england and the warm nights to come but particularly out of the heat of the day central and south—eastern england. a couple of week weather fronts on the charge tomorrow. to the north of these you are in the fresher feeling air but it is still really pleasant we'd get to see some sunshine and there will be sunny spells, scotland, northern ireland, maybe the odd shower in the east, patchy rain on the borders fizzling

out. england and wales, and isolated showers possible but most will stay dry. cloud around, not clear blue sky but there will be sunshine and still the highest temperatures focused on the east midlands, across east anglia into the south—east where we are in excess of 30 in places. really much more comfortable further north and west in the uk, even still you have some sunshine to enjoy. wednesday, weather front even still you have some sunshine to enjoy. wednesday, weatherfront may affect the west of northern ireland, some cloudier, maybe some outbreaks of rain, some coming into north—west scotland. you may see a shower in east anglia, though most will stay dry. temperatures edging up more widely on wednesday, and into thursday. on thursday, how about 28 degrees in cardiff, 25 in edinburgh? if you follow the temperature trends, in all locations they are going down a few degrees into the weekend with a chance of showers and outbreaks of rain as temperatures come down a bit at the weekend. next week, the heat will bounce right back. that's your forecast. hello, you're watching afternoon live — i'm simon mccoy.

today at two... an amber weather alert for parts of england, as forecasters say this could be the hottest week of the summer so far. three men are arrested over a suspected acid attack on a three—year—old boy in worcester. we know the public need answers as to what's happened and we're going to try and understand what's taken place to give the public the reassurance they require. the uk won't block the death penalty. home secretary sajid javid tells the us two british men accused of being islamic state militants can face execution if convicted there. coming up on afternoon live all the sport — karthi. and for the first time, an italian golf champion. yes, indeed and when you win your first major golf title, what happens? i will be telling you how francesco molinari has been
