kept in iraq this to chance, drop. kept in iraq only sent for the spinner early, a type of bullying that india are famed for. this was a classic. such moments have prompted english dizzy spells in the past so it was important but captain joe spells in the past so it was important but captainjoe root kept his head level. the scoring steadily. after year in which they've lost the ashes and bowled out for 50 new zealand, a of quiet progress from english batsmen was a soothing sight for worried are useful but this is a game of patients, england got to lunch at 83-1. but still patients, england got to lunch at 83—1. but still there is caution. for the lesson of 1000 interest test matches is that this kind can come before the collapse. time for a look at the weather... here's helen willets. not everyone will be happy that the hot weather is coming back but we will not be as hot as they are across in spain. they have extremely

dangerous heat warnings for the next couple of days. so that he is coming from africa and pushing its way north. it is mostlyjust in the south east of the uk when we see that heat building because further north and west already you can see that cloud. and these rainfall charts, the rain in northern ireland heading into scotland as well. there isa heading into scotland as well. there is a bit more fair weather cloud bubbling up, some on the horizon on the isle of wight. some beautiful weather still to be found. but across the north and the west it is across the north and the west it is a different for the looks like quite a different for the looks like quite a soggy a different for the looks like quite a soggy end to the day if you are taking to the roads in rush—hourfor scotla nd taking to the roads in rush—hourfor scotland and northern ireland. but for most of england and wales some fine and dry weather and it should stay that way for the rest of play today at edgbaston. a fine evening

across the south and east and that rain further north starting to clear away but overnight the south wind and cloud, we will get some hill fog around the coasts in the north and the west. eventually that warm air moving right across the uk. and getting more uncomfortable than by night. tomorrow temperatures again into the high 20s in the south and east, more rain later in the day for northern ireland. by friday a little more uncertainty as to where the weather front is going to live but it is hanging around across parts of central england and wales as well. further north some fresh air but still present, further south the heat, 32, potentially 33 degrees. as we go into the weekend we have the same sort of story, we keep a

slightly fresher more comfortable air but still a lot of dry weather for scotland and northern ireland. further south similar weather but with the heat to go with it. so uncomfortable heat by day and indeed by night as well. the prospects for sunday in the north again high teens, low 20s. usable decent weather but further south to keep temperatures into the high 20s. a bit too hot for me. that's all from the bbc news at one , so it's goodbye from me , and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. iam i am chris mitchell with the sport. england are playing india and the

first of five tests. england were 83 for one at lunch on the first day. who will be most pleased well they're nibbling on savages? probably england. they have had a pretty sedate morning they decided to bat after winning the toss. alistair cook got an absolute wrapper. he was the england captain have got along pretty nicely. they will be happy at 83 a1. england will be pretty frustrated. you never know, there could be a collapse around the corner. much was made of empty seats. have those filled up? we haven't quite got a full house.

warwickshire think it is because this test starts on wednesday. the usually start on thursday. the starters are a regular and people are starters are a regular and people a re creatures of starters are a regular and people are creatures of habit so they are not sure when to shore up. test cricket simply isn't generating the audience that were studied. it is in audience that were studied. it is in a busy summer of sport. there is potential big tv audiences back in india. they will have a window before the english football season. you can follow the cricket across the bbc. he can also watch clips of the best action. johanna konta thrashed

serena williams last night. with her out of form and williams seemingly coming back into form, it was a defeat that nobody saw coming. with the us open living large, serena williams‘s quest to get into when habits should be in full swing. johanna konta proves a tough test. it would be her only success. contact reignited after a second—round loss and wimbledon. the first set disappeared in a matter of minutes. williams was far from the powerhouse that got to the final just two weeks ago. contacted full advantage. the women was sealed and

it hasn't addressed the concerns of many in the jewish it hasn't addressed the concerns of many in thejewish community. these 110w many in thejewish community. these now see more angered. many in the lever movement will view this as a missed opportunity. —— in the labour movement. there is a desire for mr corrigan to take a more practice role in addressing this controversy —— mr corrigan. he has been among those pressing for the investigation into margaret hodge and ian austin, two labour mps facing disciplinary

charges after they clashed with the labour leader over anti—semitism. he has caused from —— called for those in choir is to be scrapped. hearing him in the last hour so warning that this crisis is shaking the party to its core. none of us fail to appreciate the way that this has upset people, including ourselves, it has really shaken us to the core. but we will resolve it. we have got to. the key issue has always been we've got to resolve it within the labour party, certainly, but also the members of thejewish community are really suffering out there. we have had a massive increase in attacks on the jewish community. daubing of cemeteries. appalling thatjewish schools have to have security guards with them as well. we've got to resolve the issue within our party and then get out there to assist thejewish community and campaign against anti—semitism within our society overall. the concern of some of the labour

party is that mr corrigan either lacks the will of the ability to deal with this crisis. 0ne labour mps suggesting the first —— party is now facing a full blown crisis. he has been asked to take a more aggressive stance. there have been asked one of his friends to be kicked off the national executive committee after his remarks attacking the jewish committee after his remarks attacking thejewish committee committee after his remarks attacking the jewish committee for being trump fanatics. also suggestion that the party should accept the international definition and examples of anti—semitism rather than trying to contextualise it. there are thingsjeremy corbyn could do pretty quickly which would go a

long way to allay the concerns of many in the jewish long way to allay the concerns of many in thejewish community. for whatever reason, jeremy corbyn is holding back. the former english defence league leader — tommy robinson — is to be freed on bail by the court of appeal after partially winning a legal challenge against a contempt of court finding. robinson, who appeared under his real name — stephen yaxley—lennon — had been sentenced to 13 months imprisionment in may. 0utstanding allegations against him relating to filming he carried out whilst outside leeds crown court will be reheard at the old bailey. but the judge also ruled that a suspended sentence relating to a separate incident outside a trial in canterbury should stand. let's go live to our news correspondent phil mackie whojoins me now from hmp 0nley near rugby the prison where tommy robinson has been held. what are we expecting? we have just

seen some what are we expecting? we have just seen some police officers. that may be an indication that we are getting near to the point where he will be released. nobody really knows. he only found out this morning from other prisoners. that is according toa other prisoners. that is according to a message on his facebook page. they were telling him inside he was going on. we would expect that he will be released next couple of hours. there is a lot of media here. we've been told that his solicitor has advised him not to talk to press. some of his supporters feel he might talk to is nonetheless. there are people ready to whisk him away. thejudge there are people ready to whisk him away. the judge found that the

process by which he was jailed a couple of months ago was flawed. he had not been given enough time to prepare a defence. it was all rushed. the case must be heard in front of a differentjudge. that will have to happen fairly soon. he was jailed for a total of 13 months. he would've been coming out prison later this year anyway. he would have served half of his sentence if he had been released on a tag. his supporters have led a high—profile campaign nationally and internationally. they believe he was jailed because of his political views. they have been celebrating via social media. they will be waiting seen the man they hope will

be walking out of those hours the next couple of hours. facebook says it has uncovered a suspected plot to meddle in the us mid—term elections in november. it's now closed more than thirty accounts and pages on facebook and instagram. the company says these efforts were more sophisticated than before. dave lee reports from san francisco. for once, facebook appears to be on the front foot when it is dealing with its misinformation problem. it says it has discovered co—ordinated inauthentic behaviour. the activity involved almost 10,000 facebook posts and 150 pieces of advertising. it was designed not to back a certain candidate but simply make americans angry. facebook said 30 real—world events such as protests were organised by the malicious actors. one was due to take place in washington, dc later this month. 600 people indicated they would attend.

though the techniques used closely resemble those seen in the run—up to the 2016 presidential election, facebook stopped short of blaming russia for this latest campaign. it says whoever it was took great care in covering their tracks but it did find overlap between the newly discovered accounts and those operated by the kremlin's internet research agency, known as the ira. some in washington felt the hand of russia was obvious. i have a high level of confidence that these accounts, many of them that have been tied to ira accounts, many of them modelling some of the techniques that were used by the russians in the past, i can say with pretty high confidence i think this is russian—related. president donald trump has begrudgingly acknowledged that russia may have attempted to influence his election win. president vladimir putin has

repeatedly denied it. but with the mid—term vote approaching in november, facebook‘s discovery suggests russia is indeed still at it. the social network remains under great pressure to stamp it out. david lee, bbc news, in san francisco. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news. northamptonshire county council vows to protect vulnerable people as it prepares to hold emergency talks about cuts to services. former english defence league leader tommy robinson is to be freed on bail after challenging his conviction for contempt of court — a fresh hearing will be held as soon as possible. jeremy corbyn apologises for any anxiety and concern caused after he hosted an event in 2010 at which a holocaust survivor compared israel's government to nazism. here is the business news.

more ppi pain for lloyds after the bank announces it's putting aside another £a60 million to cover costs mis—selling claims. it comes as half year profits jumped by 23% to £3.1 billion. french drugmaker sanofi says its stockpiled its drugs in preparation of a no—deal brexit between the uk and the eu. reports say the pharma giant is also considering cutting jobs from its current 1,600 strong workforce in the uk. e.0n energy announces its cutting 500 jobs across its uk 0perations. the energy firm currently employs 9,a00 in the country and blamed the competitve industry for the job lossses. e.0n says the cuts are part of its £100 million savings drive. tech giant apple has smashed

wall street forecasts by selling more of its top end iphones than expected. profits for the second quarter — that's the last three months — jumped by 32% to £8.8 billion. london's lord mayor — charles bowman — says the uk's financial services sector won't be as hard hit by brexit as intially feared. bowman said between 5,000 and 13,000 jobs could go when the uk leaves the european union in march next year. those figures are based on the uk securing a transition deal with the eu, and contrast greatly with some independent reports which predicted as many as 65,000 jobs could go. joining me now is victoria hewson, who's the senior counsel at the institute of economic affairs. what do you make of these comments?

i think it is a welcome dose of realism. some others were quite sceptical of these figures that were being suggested, 100,000 job losses. when you consider the nature of the business and the regulatory frameworks. it was never clear to me where these huge numbers ofjob losses were going to come from. it is important to note that even those numbers that we are talking about are not netjob losses. the financial sector is still projecting net increases in london and the united kingdom. what we are talking

about is certain financial institutions moving job rules and hiring new people in european union countries. they are still net increasing theirjobs in the united kingdom. this isjust a prediction, isn't it? it is based on 21 month transition period being agreed. if is not agreed, where does that leave the lord mayor with his predictions? iam not the lord mayor with his predictions? i am not entirely convinced that the firms and the city are operating on an assumption of a transition period. that would be an risky basis on which to operate. where we can be reasonably optimistic that there will be a withdrawal agreement and transition period i don't think financial services and still cherished goal —— financial

institutional services could automatically assume that because the leave time, whether that was hiring people releasing office space or technology set up, or simply the process of applying for permission is, they have quite a long time. i am not entirely convinced that we can say that the city is now operating on the assumption that there will be a transition period. if that proved to be wrong, they would be in some trouble. most firms are hedging very sensibly and are making plans to be prepared for an ordeal. shares in next have fallen as much as 8% today

despite the clothing retailer annoucing jump in sales. next said the summer heatwave had helped sell more of its lightweight summer clothing earlier in the season. the united states is considering 25% tariffs on £152bn of chinese goods, much higher than the 10% it previously indicated. reports in us media claim the plan could be announced as early as today, a move which is likely to escalate the trade war between the two nations. the uk's environment secretary, michael gove, has promised to support farmers hit by the impact this summer's heatwave. following a drought summit with the national farmers' union, he said the government would do "whatever it takes" to maintain food supplies. the heatwave has put huge pressure on farmers, who have seen some of the driest months since 1961. and uk house prices rose more than expected injuly — rising by 2.5% compared to a year earlier. the nationwide says the cost

of an average was £217,000 last month, but warned that the expected interest rate rise from the bank of england tomorrow could impact the market. each year, across the uk more than 30,000 people suffer a cardiac arrest somewhere other than a hospital, and fewer than 10% survive. very often access to a defibrillator can mean the difference between life and death, and now a pilot scheme in london is providing taxi drivers with the essential kit, as tim muffett‘s been finding out: dob — "defibrillator on board." paul tippett is one of 30 london taxi drivers trialling a new way of delivering emergency first aid. the app goes off and you are very near to an incident where someone is having a potential heart attack or cardiac arrest, and we can

be first on the scene. alarm beeps so, this is a demonstration mode, but this is what you would hear if there is an incident nearby. absolutely. paul was one of the first cabbies to carry a defibrillator. it delivers an electric shock to a heart that's in cardiac arrest. i wasjust picking up a gentleman from the city, taking him home and he collapsed on the back of the seat. i used the defibrillator. automated v0|ce: connect electrodes. one will go to the left and one will go to the right, here. it will tell you then to give a shock. the shock button is there. it will only deliver a shock, then, if it needs to. absolutely. the gentleman made a full recovery, he's with us today which is great news. the idea of a taxi driver being a first responder, i mean, how does that feel? because you're not trained paramedics, are you? no, absolutely not. but i have had various incidents in the taxi and also outside of the taxi where you felt that you could do something but you have been powerless.

i'm just down the road, i will tell you exactly what to do next... the pilot is being run in conjunction with the london ambulance service. for patients in cardiac arrest, literally every minute counts. so, every minute that somebody is in a cardiac arrest and isn't receiving cpr or getting defibrillated, their chances of survival decrease by about 10%. if there is an opportunity to start cpr or defibrillator somebody before we get there, that can massively increase somebody‘s chances of survival. so, what's it like coming back here? yeah, it's certainly emotional. three years ago, neil had been running in this park when he collapsed with a cardiac arrest. i was incredibly lucky that the person that was in the queue behind them was a gp, so was trained in knew exactly what to do and started cpr, so started compressions on me immediately... it took paramedics 15 minutes to arrive with a defibrillator. when a patient is in cardiac arrest, the only thing that can restart the heart and save their life is a defibrillator. cpr is the short term measure to keep oxygen flowing to the patient's brain. how important is it that there

are more defibrillators? it's hugely important. not only that there are more defibrillator is but that more people understand how to use them. defibrillators are now available in many workplaces, shopping centres and railway stations. in october, a decision will be made as to whether more london taxis will have one on board. now it's time for a look at the weather. we have got quite a bit of code across the uk at the moment. we have got quite a bit of code across the uk at the momentm we have got quite a bit of code across the uk at the moment. it is the south and east will be seen the best of the sunshine. we have quite a bit of rain without cloud. in derbyshire we have some cloud. that is the weather set up for the next a5 days. these weather fronts will continue to push forward —— four or

five days. quite a soggy rush—hour. in the north and the west. further south and east, the sun should continue to shine. a warm 23 degrees celsius. that rain does state across north—west england. we also —— find more cloud. it will become more humid. awarm more cloud. it will become more humid. a warm night for most of us. even here we get high humidity. thursday looks like a repeat performance. the clothes will be lower and career. it will still be warm. the northern ireland that the wane “— warm. the northern ireland that the wane —— rain will hold off into father in the afternoon. maureen will spell in towards friday. the

weather front separates our fresher weather front separates our fresher weather to the north. compared to the hot weather and heat in the south. similar setup as we into saturday. fresh air in the north and bright dry weather in the south. temperatures into the 30s again. that north south split will continue into sunday. and to the beginning of next week. great weather for getting out and about. just a strong sunshine when it comes out. in the south, on sunday the temperatures will be pushing towards 30 celsius. hello, you're watching

afternoon live — i'm simon mccoy. today at 2. a council in financial crisis — northamptonshire introduces emergency measures which mean even essential services could be cut. we are not just we are notjust going to slash and burn all the services. we've got to look very carefully at some of the decisions that we are going to take, and they are going to be very difficult. a qualified apology from jeremy corbyn over the ‘concerns and anxiety‘ caused by his appearance at a meeting where the israeli government were compared to the nazis. anger on the streets of harare as the results suggest that the ruling zanu—pf paerty have retained power in zimbabwe. and going down. a multi—storey car park collapse — sending vehicles and debris crashing onto the ground below.
