sexual exploitation and abuse are widespread across the aid sector — according to a strongly—worded report by mps. their criticism comes after revelations emerged that oxfam staff paid survivors of an earthquake in haiti for sex. organisations all too often have appeared more concerned to protect their own reputation in the sector, rather than protecting victims and survivors. charities are warned that they can't continue with a "culture of denial" — we'll bring you all the details from westminster. also this lunchtime... salman abedi — the man who bombed the manchester arena last year — was rescued from libya's civil war by the royal navy three years earlier. the row over labour and anti—semitism is reignited — after a leading party member describes somejewish people as trump "fa natics". and top of the tour, now star of the studios — we speak to geraint thomas after his cycling success. it's just a dream at the moment,

it'sjust a dream at the moment, you know? it's been such a whirlwind since finishing. being able to think of the aftermath and what will happen, it is about the process and the race and how you will race and getting into good shape. yeah, it is insane. and coming up on bbc news, andy murray comes back from a set down at the washington open to win only his second match in a year. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. aid agencies have been accused of being "almost complict" in sexual abuse across the sector, in a damning report by mps. the international development committee says there's been a "culture of denial" since revelations earlier this year that workers for oxfam paid for sex in haiti.

the committee chairman said charities seemed "more concerned to protect their own reputation" rather than the safety of victims. charities have welcomed the report, and oxfam said it has "further to go." naomi grimley reports. it was in the aftermath of the 2010 haiti earthquake that some of oxfam's aid workers severely compromised its much cherished values. they used young prostitutes when they were supposed to be helping the local population bounce back from a disaster. the charity did an internal investigation. they dismissed some members of staff and let others quietly resign without properly flagging up what had happened to the authorities or other charities. today mps said it wasn't an isolated episode. we've reached the conclusion that in the aid sector, there has been complacency verging, frankly, on complicity with what has happened. and that is because organisations

all too often have appeared more concerned to protect their own reputation in the sector rather than protecting victims and survivors. whistle—blower helen evans was once oxfam's safeguarding officer, but she lacked the resources to do herjob properly. now, she says, that must change. what are we about if we say "we will deliver aid, but there's a risk you may be sexually abused ? " how are we benefiting the beneficiaries? safeguarding and keeping beneficiaries safe is absolutely integral to trust and our ability to deliver aid and leave a lasting legacy of positive change. so the two are hand—in—hand. oxfam says it has tripled at safeguarding budget to make sure incidents like haiti can never happen again. oxfam's learnt the hard way what an abuse scandal can due to a much loved brand. it's lost donations from the public, had celebrity backers melt away and it can't even bid

for new government contracts until it's been given a clean bill of health. because mps believe this does go way beyond one charity, they want to see a new global register of aid workers set up. but not everyone in the sector thinks it can work. most aid workers are locally recruited, i think 95% of people, and we're talking about contexts where, you know, many of them are casual labourers, they may be hired for a day or two to distribute food aid. so whether it's logistically feasible is the question one would have, there. mps accept there may be challenges, but that's no reason, they say, not to try. they are adamant that after a string of abuse scandals, this has to be the time for meaningful change. naomi grimley, bbc news. it's emerged that the man who bombed the manchester arena last year was rescued from the civil war

in libya by a royal navy survey ship in 2014. salman abedi killed 22 people in may 2017 when he detonated a homemade suicide vest. our home affairs correspondent dominic casciani is here. tell us more about what we know? this is quite an extraordinary tryst on this very, very grim terrorism attack last year. salman abedi was 19 years old in the summer of 2014 and he in to his brother were in libya at the time. they would visiting their parents who had moved back to their home country, salman and his brother being british citizens. they and many others got caught up in the civil war, the worsening security situation, so the government did what it could to rescue britons who we re what it could to rescue britons who were in the country, it sends hms enterprise to pick up 110 people, mostly britons. it sat off the tripoli coast on problems people on

board, his name was on the passenger list and he was dropped off at malta for safe passage to the uk. the twist is that during that year, injanuary the twist is that during that year, in january 2014, salman the twist is that during that year, injanuary 2014, salman abedi had already been on mis‘s radar, which raises questions about whether this was a security lapse, a missed opportunity to stop him. he was on their radar because he was an associate of a man who was genuinely under suspicion of m15, but the security service later worked out that the man they were after was not abedi at all, it was mistaken identity, and they closed theirfile on him the month before theirfile on him the month before the rescue in libya. in short, there was no real intelligence that he was a threat at the time but he was certainly involved with somebody who was. it was only two or three years later but the constraints came to light through the bombing. dominic, thank you. there are calls for labour to suspend a member of its ruling body, after he was recorded calling some members of thejewish

community "trump fanatics." in the recording, peter willsman — an ally ofjeremy corbyn — claims that accusations of anti—semitism in the party have been invented. some of these people in thejewish community support trump, they are trump fanatics. i will not be lectured by them with no evidence. i think we should ask those 70 rabbis, where is your evidence of severe and widespread anti—semitism in this party?! our assistant political editor, norman smith, is in westminster. this is an ongoing major controversy for labour, what has reaction been to this episode? there has been very widespread condemnation inside and outside the labour party, the british board of deputies, their president, has called the peter wills meant to be expelled from the labour party following what she calls his disgusting runs. the

jewish labour movement wants him to be suspended and faced disciplinary charges. we are now beginning to see some prominent corbyn supporters and commentators calling for disciplinary action, suggesting he should stand down from the national executive committee. i think that reflects in pa rt executive committee. i think that reflects in part an apparent that is particularly aggressive tone and the nature of his remarks and also the fa ct nature of his remarks and also the fact he made them at the national executive committee, in other words they were given an airing at the highest echelons of the party. also the fact he is a long—standing friend of mr corbyn, damage by association. but also a sense that something has to be done to end this ongoing row about anti—semitism within the labour party. we are beginning to hearfrom within the labour party. we are beginning to hear from figures within the labour party. we are beginning to hearfrom figures in the shadow cabinet beginning to express disquiet over the way this has been handled. the problem is if

the party is to take a much more assertive and aggressive stance towards those making these kind of remarks, you really need jeremy corbyn to give a lead, and so far we have heard nothing from him in the la ke have heard nothing from him in the lake of the waiters to controversy. thank you, norman smith. rash in the light of the latest controversy. us officials have reportedly detected activity at a north korean factory which has in the past produced ballistic missiles. these satellite images show the site in question. the reports come amid the recent thawing in relations between president trump and north korea's leader kimjong un — after the apparent success of their summit injune. meanwhile president trump has offered to meet the leaders of iran, without any preconditions and at a time of their choosing. he said he wanted to work out something meaningful to replace the multi—national nuclear deal with iran, which the united states abandoned in may. zimbabwe's opposition leader nelson chamisa has said his party is winning elections resoundingly — and that he's ready to form the next government.

mr chamisa tweeted that his claim was based on results from the majority of more than ten thousand polling stations. let's speak now to our correspondent nomsa maseko, who's in harare. confidence from nelson chamisa, when are we likely to get a result? while, he is quite confident, he has even said he is ready to form a new government. but we heard from zimbabwe's government. but we heard from zimba bwe's electoral commission saying it will start announcing some results in the next few hours, and those would possibly the parliamentary results first and not presidential. at the same time the electoral commission has asked zimbabwe and is to remain peaceful and said there has been an element 01’ and said there has been an element oran and said there has been an element or an atmosphere of peace throughout this election period, and also

police have urged all members or supporters of the various political parties to shun any form of violence while the country waits for the official result to be announced. we also heard from the electoral commission, saying it can guarantee and it is confident there has not been any rigging or cheating that has taken place and also said it will not subvert the will of the people. thank you. "wow" — that's how geraint thomas summed up his feelings standing on the podium in paris after winnning the tour de france. the first welshman to wear the famous yellow jersey, thomas started the tour as a 14—to—1 outsider. well, nowjust a couple of days after riding to victory, the cyclist has been reflecting on his extraordinary achievement. natalie pirks reports. it's a geraint thomas! he's a double olympic champion and three—time world champion, but this is another level of showbiz. as the first

welshman to win the tour de france, geraint thomas will have to get used to it. this is not normal, you know? all the interviews unstuck, staying in nice hotels. we had a privatejet from paris to london yesterday with sky. it is just from paris to london yesterday with sky. it isjust like... crazy at from paris to london yesterday with sky. it is just like... crazy at the moment. but tomorrow when i actually get home and close the front door, sit on the sofa and just... look back on everything, i think that is when it will hate me. his route to glory was brutal, almost 3500 kilometres in the blazing heat with some of the most feared mountain climbs in a world cycling in his way. it was a tour of attrition for team sky, who faced hostility at every turn after a year of negative headlines. it is nice to talk about something good for change. a bit of a celebration rather than negativity, which seems to follow cycling around

quite a lot these days. it is really good for myself, obviously, but i think the team and a different winner is always nice. from a nine—year—old cyclist to youngsters in that same club watching him the most —— watching him win the most prestigious race antimicrobials. hisjourney him win the most prestigious race antimicrobials. his journey from cardiff to paris was one of wales' proud sporting achievements. praise has poured in, including from sam warburton, form alliance captain, and gareth bale, remarkably both former pupils of thomas' former school. but spare a thought for his namesake, the other geraint thomas keeps being mistaken for the cycling star on twitter, even from the official tour de france account. my latest tweet that i wrote, this is what it is like to be famous, now has 12,000 lakes and over eight and a thousand views. so what is next

for the real thomas? i have not signed a new contract yet, so quite good timing, really! tea m yet, so quite good timing, really! team sky might have to add a few more noughts to the next check! it is coming up to quarter past one. our top story this lunchtime. sexual exploitation and abuse are widespread across the aid sector — according to a strongly—worded report by mps. coming up... balancing baby, bikes and business — sarah storey, one of britain's most successful pa ralympians, is returning to racing. coming up on bbc news, england's most capped international retires from rugby. rochelle "rocky" clark, a world cup winner, played 137 times for england. many of us are packing our bags for a holiday in europe in the last summer before the uk leaves the european union.

so just what impact is brexit likely to have on our love of european travel? around 18 million britons are heading to spain this summer, they've been joined by our reporter adam fleming who's in one of its most popular resorts, benidorm. hi, well, benidorm has already been feeling the effect of brexit ever since the uk voted to leave two yea rs since the uk voted to leave two years ago, because they fall in the value of the pound. british holiday—makers have been booking slightly shorter holidays and spending less extras like excursions. but what does the future hold? it's the last summer before brexit, which could change how we holiday. it's not been decided yet whether british tourists will need a visa or not. even if they don't, they could still be affected by the eu's new travel authorisation system coming in in 2020, where visitors from outside the eu have to register on a website and pay seven euros.

if we need to do it, we need to do it. it's a break, isn't it, it's a holiday. so we need to get away. what if you had to pay extra money to get a visa? everything's extra, these days. we've got to pay everything extra. there's taxes, and you know what. you shouldn't really have to pay to come to spain, should you? the uk's not in the eu any more. i know, itjust feels like you're not that far away, you could drive to spain. however they get here, 18 million people travel to spain from the uk every year. so many it sometimes feels less like benidorm and more like britain. the english breakfasts aren't going anywhere, but some home comforts will have to be negotiated in the brexit talks. such as... the mobile phone roaming is gone now because of the eu. if it was to come back because of brexit, how would you feel? i'd have to be careful how i use my phone abroad. so, you know your european health insurance card,

which means you get free medical care, what if that disappeared? you'd just have to be like america and just pay private, wouldn't you? i'm just going to show you the newest hotel renovation, the rh canfali. tracy says uncertainty about brexit isn't affecting bookings for next summer yet. just as well, because her company has just opened this new hotel. the best thing about the hotel is this, the view. benidorm and the levante beach. i think sometimes there's a lot of scaremongering goes on with the brexit, and people are made to feel very nervous. but i think it's in everybody‘s interests to have an agreement for everything so business can be as normal as possible for everybody. right, back at the airport. the eu and the uk will have to agree new rules when it comes to aviation. and if there's no deal in march next year, there is talk about emergency plans being put into place to keep planes flying. but, if all goes to plan,

there will be a transition period, where nothing changes until the end of 2020. so, next summer should feeljust like this one. for the costa blanca, brexit is manana manana. when will we know more? well, up until now the brexit talks have all been about unwinding the uk's membership. they have onlyjust started talking about what the future relationship might look like. if the eu gets its way, all these details will not be pinned down until after brexit happens next march. adam, thank you. well, there are question marks hanging overjust how easy travel will be between the uk and the eu after brexit — and also about the european health insurance card or ehic system, which gives you free or reduced cost health care while there. our correspondent james shaw joins us now from glasgow airport. — how are things likely to change? well, just to set the context first

of all, you can probably see that this is just as of all, you can probably see that this isjust as busy of all, you can probably see that this is just as busy a of all, you can probably see that this isjust as busy a day of all, you can probably see that this is just as busy a day at glasgow airport, in the middle of the holiday season, as it would be in any other year. in fact, it is the case that there are about 53 million trips from the uk to eu countries every year. but the question is, will that change of a result of brexit? when it comes to add travel, the body which represents uk airlines, they believe there will be agreements in place to allow travel between the uk and eu countries after brexit. they believe that there are commitments from the eu commission that will happen even if it is a no—deal brexit. as for the european health insurance card, thatis the european health insurance card, that is slightly more complicated. it is certainly the case that the uk government wants people to be able to use that card. they wanted to be the case that people will get free health care in other eu countries,

or in eu countries after brexit, just as happens now. but that is pa rt just as happens now. but that is part of the overall deal that the british government is trying to do and of course it is the case that until the whole deal is in place, the small elements of it cannot be in place either. so it is simply the case that there is a lot of uncertainty, with months to go before brexit happens in march 2019, about whether the holidays, and the tradition we have of having european holidays, which has been going on for so many years now, whether that can continue after brexit. well what are the options for regulating the aviation industry after brexit? and what will happen to flights to—and—from eu destinations, and across eu airspace? here's our reality check correspondent chris morris. if the uk leaves the eu without any withdrawal agreement, eu rules and regulations will very abruptly stop applying to the uk after march 29th next year. so what does that mean in terms of planes being able

to take off and land? well, the uk would no longer be part of the eu single aviation market, which is the basis for flights in and out of the country at the moment — notjust to the eu itself but to other countries with which the eu has a deal, such as the united states and canada. in all, the eu governs uk aviation access to 44 other countries. of course, you can always negotiate new agreements, but access would start at a pretty low level, and negotiations take time. that's why a sudden no—deal scenario is so alarming to the industry. the uk would no longer be governed by the regulations of the european aviation safety agency, which deals with all sorts of things like maintenance and common standards. the uk's civil aviation authority could in theory take on all the same rules and hire lots of new staff to implement and oversee them, but it would also have to convince other international regulators to recognise it, a time—consuming process. and if you're following eu aviation rules, you basically have to accept

a role for eu courts like the european court ofjustice as well. all of which makes it a very difficult time for airlines which are already selling tickets for flights after brexit. right now we will continue to sell in the hope and belief that when the conclusion comes to the brexit scenario that, as i said, common sense prevails and people realise the need for inter—europe travel. the biggest fear has to be at the 11th hour, 59th minute, if there is a complete cessation and breakdown and a shutdown of air travel between the uk and europe. that is the ultimate worry. here's the problem. in other areas of the uk's trade relationship, if we leave with no deal we fall back on the basic rules of the world trade organisation. but in aviation there is no fallback position. either you have a deal or you don't. so if negotiations with the eu fail — and neither side wants that to happen —

there would have to be a scramble for an interim solution to keep planes in the air. the most obvious one would be some kind of stopgap agreement to roll over current rules for a short time, but that would mean the uk's current commitment to the eu, such as legal and budget commitments, would have to continue as well. extended membership in all but name. now it's worth emphasising again that it would be in no—one's interest to ground aircraft. everyone would be looking for a fix. but the suggestion that everything would automatically be fine for aviation in the event of no—deal is hugely misleading. and this isn't about project fear, this is project complexity. our correspondent chris morris, there. british gas lost around 270,000 customers in the first half of this year, according to the chief executive of the firm's parent company centrica. iain conn has been speaking to our business editor

simonjack, who is here. how did he explain this? he acknowledged it has been a rough few years for centrica. they lost nearly 1 few years for centrica. they lost nearly1 million customer few years for centrica. they lost nearly 1 million customer accounts last year, that a flood of exodus, if you like, has continued. some people get both gas and electricity. in fact 341,000 customer accounts we re in fact 341,000 customer accounts were actually lost. he said he hoped that eventually the tide would not have a ptly that eventually the tide would not have aptly termed, but at least stop. our goal is to stabilise the total customer account number and then to grow it. what we are seeing is falls in our energy supply customer numbers. our home services numbers, our british gas engineer accounts, have actually gone up in the first half of this year. for the first time since 2011. so, overall, i believe we're now seeing the beginnings of our ability to stabilise customer numbers. he didn't say when that was going to

be, and even some of the growth numbers in managed services will not offset that. there is another challenge, 3.5 million of their customers are on variable tariffs, often the most expensive deals. by the end of the year they will be capped, so there will be getting less money from some of those customers. he said be careful what you wish for, prices will bunch around the level of the caps, meaning some of the cheapest deals on the market may disappear. even though caps are coming in, yet could mean that some customers, the savvy ones that shop around, could end up paying more. the former round the world sailor tony bullimore has died at the age of 79 after suffering from a rare form of cancer. he was at the centre of a famous rescue more than 20 years ago, when he survived for four days under his capsized yacht during the vendee globe single—handed around the world race. the education secretary, damian hinds, has pledged to halve the number of children who start

school in england without basic language skills. figures from the department for education suggest that by the end of reception year, when children are four or five, more than a quarter of them still lack the basic literacy and communication skills they need. mr hinds said parents need more support in helping their children to learn. dixons carphone has said a huge personal data breach last year involved 10 million customers, much higher than its original estimate of 1.2 million customers. the company — which owns carphone warehouse and currys pc world — said names, addresses and email addresses may have been accessed in the incident, but not bank details. it's found no evidence of fraud as a result of the breach. a new species of frog has been discovered. experts at the university of manchester say it took 20 years of research to make the discovery. the large, colourful tree frog has been around for almost 100 years — but it's onlyjust been classified as a species in its own right.

it's been named sylvia's tree frog, after the granddaughter of the conservationist who discovered it. after becoming britain's most decorated female pa ralympian with three gold medals at rio, dame sarah storey took time out from the international competition world to look after her second child, charlie. now, 15 months later, she's bouncing back , returning to the global stage at the para cycling road world championships — which get under way on thursday in italy. kate grey caught up with her as she made herfinal preparations in cheshire. this is how the storey family rolls — balancing babies, bikes and business. britain's most successful female pa ralympian certainly enjoys life in the fast lane. i'm a mum first, i'm an athlete, and if i can do other things around that, then that's always a bonus. it's about finding the best version of you, whether it's in your personal life, your working life, in your sporting life.

at the rio paralympics, her first child louisa was still a toddler — but that didn't stop herfrom winning three golds at those games. last october, charlie was welcomed into the family. but sarah was faced with some unexpected challenges. well, i think this time i got back onto the track a little bit quicker, albeit that was a little bit in vain because then i couldn't go to the track world championships because of the yellow fever outbreak that happened in brazil. i was breast—feeding him, so that's why i couldn't be vaccinated. i had to try to make sure that i'm being cautious with my own diet, so that i didn't try and starve myself, and that affect how i was feeding charlie. so it was just about being open minded and not rushing into it. the road world championships in italy will be the start of sarah's elite competition comeback — with all with all roads leading to tokyo and her eighth paralympic games. dame sarah storey. she's already won 14 gold medals, but now she's doing it while raising her own stars of the future. charlie's obviously come along and he's keeping us all entertained. and louisa has now got her own sporting activities to do.

so, who knows, one day we might go out training together, louisa and i, and charlie looks like he might be on the sprint side of things. he's a really strong little boy. so we'll wait and see what their activities are. but i always enjoy training and competing, and it seemed like it wasn't quite the right time to stop. at 40 years old, sarah has no plans of retiring time soon. with her young family in tow as her biggest supporters, she'll continue to push the boundaries of sport. kate grey, bbc news, macclesfield. time for a look at the weather. here's alina jenkins it's getting warmer again? some may have felt that summer has been on pause for the last weekend, there have been some contrasts, notably in the last 12 hours. heavy, thundery rain across parts of south—east england, east anglia and the midlands, but that has now cleared away eastwards. for a large swathe of the country, good swathes

of sunshine. but not for everyone. you can see the isobars are quite close together here, indicating the strength of the wind. it is pushing a front across and bringing more clouds and outbreaks of rain across northern ireland, the western isles of scotland. some showers for dumfries and galloway, one or two showers across wales and the odd one for south west england. away from the north—west of the country, a good deal of sunshine continuing through the afternoon. quite windy, particularly for western coasts where the gusts will reach 30 or 40 mph, locally 50 the far north—west of scotland. that is where we have the lowest temperatures, 15 or 19 for those coasts, further south and east, up to 25 in south—east england. the rain across northern ireland and western scotland continues to track
