cool, temperatures of ceel, temperatures of 19- noticeably cool, temperatures of 19— 24 noticeably cool, temperatures of 19— 2a degrees. more rain and wind pushing into the south—west of the country on sunday. that is something we haven't seen in quite a while. widespread rain in northern and western areas. we need the rain. this is good news. south and east, heavy, may be thundery showers. i added the wind arrows on to show how blustery will be, another thing we haven't seen in a while. with the cloud and the breeze and the rain, it will feel a lot cooler with temperatures in the high teens to low 20s. low pressure is still with us on low 20s. low pressure is still with us on monday. another front passing through will bring another spell of rain and showers. and notice them into colours, the blue colours to the west of the uk. we are getting this cooler air in on a brisk west to south—west wind. on monday it is a similar story. more showers to northern and western areas. some better spells of sunshine developing across england and wales but the odd

heavy and thundery shower can't be ruled out and a cool and fresh fields are things with less humidity. tuesday, high pressure building in, so variable amounts of cloud, but largely bright or sunny spells. the greater chance of rain across the north—west corner of the country. it will be breezy and fairly cool as well. in the south—east, even some sunshine, we could see 21;— south—east, even some sunshine, we could see 24“ 25 degrees. as we head on into the week, in the north—west of the country, further showers at times. high—pressure continuing to settle in. at the end of the week and more significant area of high pressure will finally settle in. the wind will become lighter and with a strong early august sunshine it should feel warmer by the end of the week. so we start on a very different feel to the week. fresh and cool with outbreaks of rain, mostly in the north and west. then the signs of it warming up again by the signs of it warming up again by the end of the week. welcome to bbc news. will be taking a look at tomorrow

morning's papers in just will be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers injust a moment. first, the headlines: it has officially been the hottest day of the year, temperatures reaching a scorching 35 degrees in parts of the uk, evena scorching 35 degrees in parts of the uk, even a little bit more. medicinal cannabis is set to be legalised on prescription in the uk, following the high—profile cases of children with severe epilepsy being denied access to cannabis oil. the bbc is to pay more than three quarters of £1 million towards sir cliff richard's legal costs following his privacy case. more than 130 people are unaccounted for after the ban that collapsed in laos on monday. —— laos. thousands of people were forced to leave their phone. the former world cricket star imran khan is set to be prime minister of pakistan. hello, welcome to our lookahead at

what the papers were digging us tomorrow. with me is lyn davidson and jason beattie. to look at these front pages which we have our hands on. the financial times leads on facebook‘s woes as more than $120 billion was wiped off the value of its shares. that is the biggest one—day fall in one stock in us history. the guardian has the same story, saying the social media site pays the price for the data scandal. and the times also has the facebook

story, reporting that the social media site allows anti—semitic posts to remain on the platform after they have been flagged by users as offensive. the eye leads on the home secretary decision to allow medicinal cannabis to be prescribed to cannabis with exceptional critical need after parents fought for their children's right to the drug. on the front page of the telegraph, the work and pensions secretary esther mcveigh says that more teenagers should take jobs on some holidays. the metro says the wrong type of sun, reporting on the cancellations of trains caused by the heat, while the rising temperatures also make the front page of the sun. who go for this one, bake to the future. a new outsider struggle is the top story for the daily express. —— outsider robert. lyn davidson, start us off.

facebook, the figures and what has happened to the price of this stock is amazing and there is a lot behind it. it is a lot of money and the guardian sum it up as, the amount equivalent to nearly all of mcdonald's or three times as much as tesco. essentially, this amount has been wiped off facebook and they have revealed that about 3 million people have left facebook since the cambridge analytica data breach was revealed earlier this year and that was when something where something like 90 million profiles were breached. mark zuckerberg is taking the bulk of the hit from this, his own personal wealth, he owns almost 17% of the company and it fell from about 90 billion us dollars to about

71. struggling. 3 million european users have attended it. but it is still the norm? -- abandoned. although they have had this fall, the share price is still higher than it was a year ago and it still a huge, multinational east of —— beast ofa huge, multinational east of —— beast of a company. the mail is overthrowing it, the main problem is because it admitted it would hmmfia because it admitted it would forecast a decline in advertising resin you and it has almost reached saturation point. the problems the technology companies have is that the industry is based on innovation, and a fashion to get. they stock has been the equivalent of socks and jeans, it is not cool to the younger generation. they are busy on the

snapchat and others. there is always something coming along. what they are doing is buying these companies as sooi'i are doing is buying these companies as 50011 as are doing is buying these companies as soon as they emerge as competition, but you are seeing the problems that they face, young people want something new, finding and other form of social media is more appetising, instagram bought examples of the. —— for example. although they are country founded on 20 years ago... it was annoying, there seems to be so many advertisers dropping into the timeline, things are not contemporary and turning up out of date. i think it is not very user—friendly, certainly. date. i think it is not very user-friendly, certainly. at the back of it, another story that is at least in one other paper, about the anti—semitic problems, still things on facebook. this is the fashion of the times, saying that facebook is failing to remove abusive and vile

and in this case, anti—semitic, content. the problem is, they see themselves as a technology company and not as a publisher, but actually they are the biggest publisher in they are the biggest publisher in the world and a main sort of views foran the world and a main sort of views for an awful lot of people. articular young people. unlike other companies like newspapers and broadcasters we have editorial standards and have some sort of control of what is put out. facebook hasn't been doing that and had to learn that quickly. they have employed hundreds of people to monitor, i don't think that is enough. obviously they have this feeling we just put information out there, we are not responsible for it. a libertarian attitude which is pa rt of it. a libertarian attitude which is part of their own billing. we are going to stay with the guardian. —— there are and billing. —— and billing. —— undoing. now, there has been a parent ‘s

campaignfor now, there has been a parent ‘s campaign for sick people using medicinal cannabis. sajid javid has agreed that cannabis can be used for medicinal purposes, particularly in the case of people with epilepsy because it helps them relieve or control the fit. there are any few hurdles to get over here, legislation, firstly in his to go through parliament, not sitting until septemberand it through parliament, not sitting until september and it probably will get bipartisan support. it still needs approval from the medical experts to make sure they get it exactly right. this is a big step forward. it still to me is ridiculous that it is a home office decision for a medical reason the. that is what the campaigners want it shifted to be. to be fair, they have

been working on it, but ultimately because it falls under the drugs act, that is why it falls under their jurisdiction. act, that is why it falls under theirjurisdiction. it will be a great sign, at least moving forward, for the coldwell family and our fee in lee's family. —— alfie dingley. no change in the law.|j in lee's family. —— alfie dingley. no change in the law. i don't think that would occur. it is interesting, this is not california yet or anywhere else in the state... but european countries seem to be ahead of us in terms of medicines. of countries are ahead of us. going to the daily mail now, i think this is for you. the daily mail now, i think this is foryou. —— a the daily mail now, i think this is for you. —— a lot of. the daily mail now, i think this is for you. -- a lot of. i wrote about this today. you are an expert! what is that we —— mean to live beyond oui’ is that we —— mean to live beyond our means? this is from the office

of national statistics, we take anything they generally say quite seriously because it has come from them. essentially, they have found for the first time in 30 years since 1988, households are spending more than they are bringing in, to the tune of £900 a year. last time it happened in 1988, there was a shortfall of about £300 million, yes it was a while ago, but this time it is pretty £5 billion, equating to about one fifth of the nhs budget and it means that the poorest families are typically overspending more than the richest families, quite obvious. but what people are spending more on right now is loans, payday loans, also spending money on home improvements coming doing extensions to their houses, credit ca rd extensions to their houses, credit card debt as well and the fear is,

sparking fears of a potential recession because even back in 2008, before the last recession, this wasn't happening. people were not spending or living beyond their means to this point, certainly. spending or living beyond their means to this point, certainlylj wonder means to this point, certainly.” wonder if this means a certain optimism rather than public —— people struggling.” optimism rather than public —— people struggling. i think it is people struggling. i think it is people struggling, we had a report out on the resolution think tank that said the 8 million poorest households are worse off than we we re households are worse off than we were 15 years ago. last year, the real poorest, £150, it was a wages problem and this is a consequence of stag na nt problem and this is a consequence of stagnant wages now for over a long period of time and although we have high employment, the jobs aren't paying properly enough and this is partly behind it. there is a secondary question about whether it is too easy to get credit what i think the primary driver is people

are not in paid enough. also low interest rates. back in 1998 was something like 15% and now it is like 0.5. that is encouraging people to borrow more and it is not worth saving because the interest rates are so saving because the interest rates are so low. it says here, we all know that front—page stories tend to get written up a bit. but it does a financial experts said the figures we re financial experts said the figures were profoundly worrying, our economic growth raced on depth was unsustainable. yes, there is an interesting point, which doesn't make the front section here. britain was similar with other countries in europe, like france and germany, who live within their means and save more. now germany, who live within their means and save more. now we are germany, who live within their means and save more. now we are turning into a country like canada and the united states which spends more. perhaps it is a cultural change. and of course, we are not saving enough

for a pension and down the road people will struggle. now, let's come on. jason, i think it is you. the inside of the times, look at the story in detail, no deal, barnier shoots down may's compromise on customs. and absolutely inevitable. the eu said right from the beginning that theresa may's plan, which is called fca, facilitated customs arrangement, which is the idea that they would use technology to patrol borders, which has as yet not been tested, then collect tariffs on behalf of the eu, was a nonstarter. they were clear about this. they are saying it because if you are a third party you are not bound by the rules. we need to be able to police that to make sure you do it properly. the problem is that may

knew this and still put this suggestion forward. this was a centrepiece of her cheque as planned. —— chequers plan. one option is to stay in the customs union, at which the brexiteers in her party... no deal. she is stuck ina mad her party... no deal. she is stuck in a mad riddle and i don't see a way out of this. michel barnier is famous for saying we can't have this 01’ famous for saying we can't have this or that. . we are eight months into the middle of this negotiation and this is what you read expecting to say. what is more interesting is what is coming from the other leaders, like angela merkel in germany. there has been a noticeable

softening of the german approach to this. there has been bickering between france and as well. we also had... yes, she is in ajam. we have the former australian high commissioner alexander downing today saying this transpacific free—trade agreement, which was talked about, so we can agreement, which was talked about, so we can trade with countries in asia, in the transpacific, this former australian high commissioner said under this chequers plan we can'tjoin it. said under this chequers plan we can't join it. she said under this chequers plan we can'tjoin it. she has said, it is one of her red lines, we should be able to have free—trade deals. if we can't do that, if britain can't do that, she is in a very difficult position. that was pie in the sky. the idea that we could get a better trade deal with another country was not going to happen. what is the advantage for america if we sign up to eu standards to import

chlorinated chicken and pumped beef? this is the issue. there are no good options available. jean-claude juncker has ruled over donald trump. i think you would find it is the other way around. we will have to disagree on that. i noticed in the corner on the same page, the majority back a second referendum on brexit terms. that might be a straw in the wind. let's finish with the weather. come along. as i say every evening this week we have been running a competition for the best headline. is this your newspaper? yes. did you come up with this? no, idid yes. did you come up with this? no, i did not. i know that paul sims is oui’ i did not. i know that paul sims is our weatherman and he has some great exclusives this week including reservoirs taking it in the lake

district, this is what we have to expect from now, apparently, according to boffins. and as we were saying earlier, people will have to pay more heed to the hot weather warnings because more deaths are predicted. indeed. it is interesting. earlier on, we were talking to an mp who made a warning. she pointed out that they have begun deliberations when we have the best from the east blowing through us. the real problem is the extremes, is it not, both ways? part of global warming is more confused weather, so it is going to be much more extreme, even some could be more damp, but we know the planet is warming. anyway,

we are grateful to you both. that is it for the papers tonight. you can see the front pages of the papers online seven days a week at... if you miss the programmes you can watch it later on the bbc. goodbye. good evening. this is the latest from the bbc sport centre. it has been a busy night for teams hoping to qualify for the europa league. burnley scrambled draw against the premier league team aberdeen 1—1. another note from this, england goalkeeper adam pope was out with a shoulder injury. hibs had a good comeback to win 3—2 in the first leg the tie. and it is probably all over

for northern ireland's crusaders who lost in slovenia. good news for rangers and steven gerrard, who have the lead after scoring a way in croatia. that was the only goal of the night. drama at the end for the welsh champions thanks to this hudson had, winning 2—1 against lincoln, who are actually from gibraltar. former manchester united manager alex ferguson says he wouldn't be here without the care of hospital staff after his surgery for a brain haemorrhage in may. he has spoken public for the first time since going home from hospital on social media. he thanked all his well—wishers. social media. he thanked all his well-wishers. just a quick message to thank the medical staff at

macclesfield, salford royal, without that care a would not be sitting here today. thank you from me and my family. thank you very much. it has made me feel so humble, as all the m essa 9 es made me feel so humble, as all the messages have had from all over the world, wishing me the best, and the good wishes resonate very strongly with me. so, thank you for that support you've given me. and lastly, i will be back late in the season to watch the team. in the meantime, all the best to jose and watch the team. in the meantime, all the best tojose and the players. thank you very much. it is good to see him looking well. in cricket, adil rashid has been picked for the first test against india, despite opting out of a long form of cricket to focus on one day and t20 matches. he hasn't played a test since facing india in 2016. former england

captain michael vaughan called the decision to include him ridiculous and yorkshire's chief executive said he hopes they know what they are doing. the national selector ed smith said rashid's selection is not a bad precedent and is a one—off. next to an incredible incident in the super league, with st helens coming back from behind to beat warrington with the last kick of the match. the scores were tied at 12— 12, but the saints' danny richards and keep this from inside his own half to secure a 14— 12 win to extend the lead at the top to 12 points. ireland secured a shock 1—0 victory over india at the hockey world cup to seal a place in the quarter—final. it means england, in the same pool as ireland, can't qualify automatically for the last eight. ireland will top pool b.m

isa dream eight. ireland will top pool b.m is a dream experience. we will be pinching ourselves. it is brilliant for us. it wasn't outside possibility for us. we came in here with the belief. we have done a lot of homework. we have played a lot of the teams in our pool before. we knew that we could get the result. it is an unbelievable experience. no change at the top of the general standings after stage 18, which was w011 standings after stage 18, which was won by an old dumar. in thomas has a lead of one minute 59 seconds, with chris froome still in third. tomorrow sees the final mountain stage of the race before time trial on saturday and then the procession into paris on sunday. that is all your sport for now. good evening. what a day today was. we saw some very high temperatures. for most of us today was the day

that the heat wave hit its peak. in central london it was 35 on the nose. 33 in sheffield. even 27 in edinburgh. that has begun to spawn some thunderstorms. more of them tomorrow. into the weekend, much fresher feel. fresh air is lying in wait behind this cloud, these frontal systems. this cloud shows where we have developed thunderstorms this evening. look at these temperatures. if are about to go to bed this is the temperature at the moment. 17 in glasgow, 25— 26 in london. through the night we will see showers and thunderstorms across central and eastern areas. all the while cloud into northern ireland, with some rain, and the cloud and patchy rain will move into western scotland, wales and the south—west. further east, dry weather, sunshine, and into the afternoon showers kept

going. in the extreme east of the country we could get into the low—to—mid 30s. further west it will not be as hot as it was today. these eastern areas are prone to seeing some vicious thunderstorms on friday evening. if you have travel plans, bear that in evening. if you have travel plans, bearthat in mind. evening. if you have travel plans, bear that in mind. and then another band of rain comes in from the west. and then some showers. behind that, saturday is much cooler and fresher with the wind switching round to the westerly wind, quite brisk, windier than of late, and even once the rain clears through, further showers race on into western areas. look at the temperatures. 17 in belfast. 2a in london. and for sunday this rain looks it will work in from the south—west. uncertainty about the timing. some very wet weather and windy weather compared to what we've been used to particularly in western and south—western areas. yes, some spells of sunshine. those temperatures well down on what we

have been seeing. in london, a high of 22 degrees. 13 degrees cooler thanit of 22 degrees. 13 degrees cooler than it was today. as we get into the start of next week, we stick with the cool and fresher feel. there will be some spells of sunshine. later into the week it looks like things will warm up again. for the time being the heatwave for most of us has reached its peak and now convert thunderstorms. good night. —— come the thunderstorms. welcome to newsday. i'm sharanjit leyl in singapore. the headlines: former world cricket star imran khan claims victory in pakistan's election promising the people he'll fight corruption. translation: what ever the ruling elite has been doing in pakistan so far with the taxpayer's money, i am promising you today that i will change all of that. bruised and bewildered — the children who survived the devastating laos dam collapse. we have just found this shelter
