authority has struggled to meet demand. most people were killed by a collapsed buildings, evacuation is being done step—by—step due to a shortage of vessels. this tourist is stuck next to one of the islands nearby. we heard the authorities had stopped the evacuations because there was so much chaos in lombok. we are here with a hundred people, there's no power, the water, we were just told out and see what happens tomorrow. those who managed to get tomorrow. those who managed to get to lombok tried to get flights but it was far from easy. it's terrible. we are in the gili but i don't know how to get to the airport. despite

the devastation gili airport continues to operate, allowing tourists to cut short their holiday and leave. one dutch man who injured his knee was in a restaurant when he felt the effects of the earthquake. the noise was crazy so i thought, this is bad, this is an earthquake. i started running to the exit but eve ryo ne i started running to the exit but everyone in the restaurant was also running to the exit, it was like a stampede and every one file, three oi’ stampede and every one file, three orfour stampede and every one file, three or four people fell on top of me. the earthquake the magnitude of 6.9 happened early sunday evening, the second in a week hit lombok. indonesia is prone to them due to its location on the pacific ring of fire, an arc of volcanoes and fault lines. those that were taken to damaged hospitals, and makeshift clinics as medical staff tried to cope with the sudden influx. indonesia ‘s president has called for the immediate evacuation of the injured. translation: for the immediate evacuation of the injured. translationzlj for the immediate evacuation of the injured. translation: i have said work should be carried out as fast

as possible to bring out the dead and injured as well as to provide emergency aid and put on more flights to collect people stuck in more remote areas. the country's disaster management agency said military and aid teams were delivering tents and medical aid but the damaged roads and bridges made it hard to move around. it is expected the numbers of confirmed dead will rise in the coming days. jane francis kelly, bbc news. we've just had a statement from the foreign office saying, we're working to provide assistance to people caught up in that earthquake. and foreign office consider staff are deploying staff to help those in need it and they point out that both barley and gili airports are open and running. afull barley and gili airports are open and running. a full servers with extra flights added to help people who wish to leave, also saying anyone planning to travel to the

catching hold of my friend's hand, telling her, cover your head. we we re telling her, cover your head. we were following her boyfriend out and i could see my boyfriends head. as we reached the exit we felt the building was starting to collapse on top of us and the debris started falling. people were on the floor, we we re falling. people were on the floor, we were helping them to get up. once outside i realised i couldn't see my partner. we were shouting, screaming for him. it felt like an eternity at the time but he did eventually appear covered in blood because he was trying to help a gentleman who had fallen over in the restaurant and was getting hit by rubble. fortu nately we and was getting hit by rubble. fortunately we are all safe at the moment! it sounds like a traumatic experience. yes. absolutely. ithink at the time your adrenaline kicks m, at the time your adrenaline kicks in, and you go into that self—preservation mode. at one point

we then heard that there might be tsunami warnings so we decided to get into the car and head towards where we live, because we live on high ground we got as far as we could in the car and then walked up the mountain, and we were in an area basically with no buildings, no power lines above us, and then we just sat there and waited until two o'clock in the morning and sat at the after—shocks which were terrifying! indeed. i know you teach atan terrifying! indeed. i know you teach at an international school. what can you tell us about how that has been affected and whether any of the pupils or staff have been affected by this? at the moment we don't know too much. i adjusted we've got one pa rent too much. i adjusted we've got one parent who is an engineer who's gone in to check the state of the building. structurally sound, he's

just there are some superficial cracks that will need repairing. obviously we were not at school today, and we are just awaiting further information because staff and parents, the safety is paramount so we and parents, the safety is paramount so we won't be going back until we know it's 100% safe. so we won't be going back until we know it's100% safe. thank you very much for talking to us from lombok, phillipa hodge. a man has appeared in court in staffordshire, charged with the murder of the midwife samantha eastwood. her body was found on saturday, eight days after she was last seen leaving work at royal stoke university hospital. michael stirling, who's 32 and from stoke—on trent, was remanded in custody. our correspondent caroline davies reports. warm, generous, with a great sense of humour — samantha eastwood, a 28—year—old midwife, was reported missing ten days ago. her disappearance has now become a murder inquiry. appearing in court, 32—year—old michael stirling was charged

secretary has said the party needs to ‘get to grips' with anti—semitism. rebecca long—bailey said the party was "coming from a very very dark place" and needed to act quickly. it's a very very difficult issue and we are coming from a very dark place. we know we weren't dealing with issues very quickly when this issue first presented itself, and now we really need to get to grips with the matter. we know we've had generally speaking quite openly on this issue over the weekend. we have opened dialogue with thejewish community to make sure we get our anti—semitism code of conduct really on the button because it has to be. we've got to restore faith in the jewish community. rebecca long bailey. the world's most—starred michelin chef, joel robuchon, has died at the age of 73. the french chef founded a string of restaurants that revolutionised fine dining and which between them

states, including utah, have been lit up by the wildfires. a spectacular sight but everyone here knows what is at risk. we stayed up there as long as we couldn't our rally until the flames were, they went 360 degrees around our area but close enough that we decided to get out. in california alone than a thousand aircraft and fire engines are being used in an attempt to bring the fires under control. but it is proving extraordinarily difficult. firefighters from new zealand and australia are flying to help tackle the fire north of sacramento, another major blaze. in this state well over 40,000 people have been involved in a huge effort to put up these claims. but this is only the start of the wildfire season and there is a clear fear of what california could face in the weeks ahead. chris buchler bbc news. forecasters are predicting temperatures across the uk will fall

back down to average for this time of year by the end of the week. but across many other parts of the world heatwaves are continuing. in portugal, hundreds of firefighters are continuing to try and control a major wildfire in the algarve. neighbouring spain continues to swelter in temperatures close to 40 degrees. and it's notjust in europe — on the other side of the world, japan and australia are also trying to cope with extreme weather, as richard lister reports. looming over this village in southern portugal, a mountain of fire. it has been burning for three days. the extreme heat in the region has turned it into a tinderbox. as the fire moves through, home owners have been returning to see what is left. this woman was reunited with the animals she was forced to leave behind. they have all had a lucky escape. on the portuguese coast, the heatwave is driving people away from the cafes, the streets are deserted

as people seek shade. it is hard, says this man, we're brazilian and we have never seen heat like this. it's too hot, says anna. it is true it is the summer but we can't breathe. parts of switzerland have seen the hottestjuly since records began, so hot that this ageing nuclear power plant has been forced to scale back electricity production to scale back electricity production to keep vital equipment cool. the drought here means crops are struggling as well,s that's notjust a european problem. in australia's new south wales its winter but the farmers haven't had enough rain and this year to break the drought. the government has had to intervene with financial support. australian farmers are resilient. they plan for drugs. they are good managers. but it can become really overwhelming. this is the worst drought in new south wales since the 1965 drought.

across asia people have been sweltering for weeks. injapan today temperatures nudged 40 degrees. the summer has been the hottest on record, with scores both deaths. so what britain's long hot summer? in hyde park today the pictures were empty, the sunshine and a body that seems to have worn off. while it is going to be hot for some for a few more days the bookies have slashed the odds that august could end up being the wettest on record. richard lister, bbc news. the cost of rural crime is soaring — it was up to 45 million pounds last year — and farmers across the uk are resorting to medieval methods to try and protect their equipment. according to the insurance company nfu mutual some farmers — as well as using modern technology, such as cctv, floodlighting and motion sensors — have also built trenches to protect their properties against a growing wave of vehicle, equipment and livestock theft by organised gangs. ian white reports. it is an idea that comes from

medieval times. moving mounds of earth to create trenches, ditches and barriers to stop criminals getting onto farmland. this scheme in gloucestershire is encouraged by the police and is provided free of charge by local companies. this year we are seeing people bringing things like earth banks, sort of medieval fortifications, last used a thousand yea rs fortifications, last used a thousand years ago. they are putting up stockade like fences around their farms. and using these in conjunction with high—tech security like cctv. as you can see here we are on top of hell. a mile over that hilltop and you are into west yorkshire and keighley. yorkshire sheep farmer david airey knows only too well what it is to be targeted by criminals. his farm in craven spans five miles across three counties and thieves, tim from all directions. in the last 18 months

it's got beyond a joke. we were being visited at least once a fortnight. i'd put it down to two different groups. one group were pinching tools and small items, but our biggest problem is our quad bikes. with equipment costing hundreds of thousands of pounds kept in remote and isolated areas, sophisticated, sometimes dangerous gangs of criminals know exactly what they are looking for. organised crime gangs are working notjust across europe, but across the world. and that will be paying for other things. paying for large quantities of drugs to come in, paying for debts to be paid off. paying for fire arms smuggling. different police forces have different priorities so there is a

lack ofjoined up thinking when it comes to tackling rural crime. the government says police funding will increase by over £460 million this year with around £280 million going directly to forces to spend on local priorities. what we want to do is make sure it is hard in every place for criminalst make sure it is hard in every place for criminals t o make profit and for criminals t o make profit and for people to feel safer, working together, understanding what our tactics opportunity to chase after criminals? the fear now is if the police can't help farmers could be tempted to take the law into their own hands. god help me if! ever caught one in the act. it is wrong but i couldn't say what i would do to them! every chief constable in england has now signed up to a national plan to tackle rural crime but the police say farmers to must do more to keep their keep their detective constable chris piggott is from the national crime intelligence service. and joins us from coventry. what kit is good for this and how we give our office is the best opportunity to chase after criminals? the fear now is if the police can't help farmers could be tempted to take the law into their own hands. god help me if! ever

caught one in the act. it is wrong but i couldn't say what i would do to them! every chief constable in england has now signed up to a national plan to tackle rural crime but the police say farmers to must do more to keep their property safe. ian white, bbc news .thank gangs, exploiting the border is notjust of the forces but of the uk, particularly exporting machinery across the world. and of course farmers these days have got tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of sophisticated machinery and equipment on their farms. is that what is attracting this new breed of criminals? absolutely. it's low risk for very high gain. we've done a lot of work with manufacturers and we have seen security measures introduced by some of the biggerfarm manufacturers security measures introduced by some of the bigger farm manufacturers and some of the plant industry, such as the marking schemes, tracking devices and the like. so what we are seeing now is, much of the older stuff is targeted which still holds a high value, and we are also seeing quad bikes and the smaller stuff which is easily concealable and moved around the countryside. some

farmers were digging trenches. is that an effective way of deterring thieves? ok, yes, we've seen it in gloucestershire, which had a particularly high volume of quad thefts around this time last year. we have seen some decrease in that. some of these gangs are very, very determined, though. we've seen them breaking in through locked buildings and across land. any deterrent will be good and prevention is better than cure with any crime. with the lack of police forces out there in the real community we can't ever say no to anything that they are going to ta ke no to anything that they are going to take as a security measure. you talk about the strain on police forces. are they doing enough to protect these farms, which often by their very nature can be quite remote? i think unfortunately you've good and varied response from different police forces. some have got larger rural crime teams and

others will be down to a single officer looking up the spectrum of rural crime. notjust a vehicle crime but hare coursing, wildlife crime, heritage crime and the like. hopefully with the new npc sea plan and structure paul rowley singh, chief constables will have more of an idea of what would be expected from them, and plough more resources into this type of area. chris piggott, thank you very much for talking to us from coventry. what about the weather? we heard earlier about the weather? we heard earlier about the weather? we heard earlier about the heatwave continuing across europe and other parts of the world. ben is here. we are going to get an end to it in the uk? i have stood here so many times and it has gone on, relentlessly dry. but there's a change on the way. our trigger the

forecast for london, this afternoon 33 degrees and see how those temperatures drop by midweek, low 20s. weird shape a good 10 degrees of those values. further north and west a little cooler, this is how it will look in belfast, some rain around today, light and patchy, lower temperatures. what i want to buy dad is this. some rain and some relatively strong winds for the end of the week. —— what i want to point out is this. after what feels like a very long out is this. after what feels like a very long summer, out is this. after what feels like a very long summer, not out is this. after what feels like a very long summer, not over out is this. after what feels like a very long summer, not over yet, what iam going very long summer, not over yet, what i am going to show you looks like autumn. just as we are getting used to our mediterranean lifestyle! people expect nothing less at the moment! that thejet people expect nothing less at the moment! that the jet stream which is driving the weather around the world, it dives along way south. we haven't seen that match this summer. it brings cooler air and later this week it's this. remember this? i

think we used to call that some sort of drizzle, rain, didn't it? we used to call this low pressure, rain and strong winds. a lot of white lines on our chart. this is the sort of weather chart i would expect to see in autumn. it means strong winds, heavy rain, good news for gardens, just in time for the weekend. it won't rain all weekend, will need to firm up on the timing, we'll keep you up—to—date but for the start of the weekend, outbreaks of rain and strong winds, it will feel so different. perfect for all those familiesjust different. perfect for all those families just planning a seaside holiday. this might not be the weekend to pick! but we have some fine weather to pick through first. sunshine in south—east england, not a bad bet. the north and west, and mentioned the forecast the belfast, cloud has already arrived and a cooler feel to this wriggling area of clout, it's quite a weak weather

front. this will bring spots of rain through the afternoon across parts of southern scotland, northern england into northern ireland, something brighter, the real heat down towards the south—east corner, 32 degrees as we head to the next couple of hours. this evening ‘s late sunshine across southern and south—eastern areas will translate into clear skies overnight and the odd missed patch. wriggling band of cloud not moving far, bringing the odd spot of rain, to the north—west of that clear spells and some showers and on the cold side towards the south—east and other warm and humid night. but another hot day tomorrow. through the midlands into parts of yorkshire and lincolnshire, east anglia into the south—east a lot of sunshine, temperatures again in the high 20s, 30s, still the weather front wriggling through, a band of cloud and some spots of rain. to the north—west of that, cooler, fresh air, sunshine and

showers. as we go into tuesday evening, where we've had the warm weather across the south—east there was just a chance we might see showers and storms. so don't be too surprised if you see a flash of lightning or hear a rumble of thunder. clearly those showers and storms are away as we get to wednesday but further frontal systems a re wednesday but further frontal systems are pushing in from the atlantic, i showed you a dip in the jet stream, that will bring the cooler across all parts of the country by the middle of the week. still a fair amount of dry weather and spells of sunshine. especially the further east you are, further west more clout and showers, some of which could be heavy but those temperatures if you've been used to 30s in the south—east, this will look more like mid—20s on wednesday and maybe just 18 for the likes of belfast and glasgow. as we get deeper into the week we keep this mixture of sunshine and showers on

thursday, that fresherfeel, and on friday the first signs perhaps over the timing is uncertain, of wind and rain moving in from the west. the week and looking very different, wet and windy for a time, and significantly cooler. budget the weekend looking very different. this is bbc news. our latest headlines: more than 90 people have been killed and hundreds injured in another powerful earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok. thousands of residents and tourists, including britons, are being evacuated. a man has appeared in court charged with the murder of midwife samantha eastwood. michael stirling is the brother—in—law of ms eastwood's former fiance. her body was found by police officers on saturday. a court's been told that the england cricketer ben stokes ‘lost control‘ during a fight at a nightclub in bristol last september. he denies affray, along with two other men. new mexico police have rescued 11 malnourished children, who were being kept in squalid conditions in a remote desert compound. the children, aged one to 15, had no shoes and were living in what one officer called

we re the governments and ngos like us, we were still until last night preparing to respond to the first earthquake. basically, the plan is to ensure that children and women are to ensure that children and women a re protected physically to ensure that children and women are protected physically and also psychologically. and this is the areas we are looking to support. and suddenly last night, another big earthquake happened. and there must bea earthquake happened. and there must be a real concern for those survivors who are now perhaps sleeping in the open, without access to basic facilities such as clean water. yes, clean water and also facilities for sanitation is the main concern. but also, food and medicine. because a lot of children have already suffered from colds because of being in the open. and some of them four days the earthquake. and what are you hearing

and seeing about the scale of the relief operation, is the government responding to the scale of this? yes, the government has been responding. different ministries and the disaster management response. and the military, of course, has been despatching relief and operations personnel at the moment, to ensure that nobody is trapped in the house. search and rescue teams have been on the ground. this is something that we will see for the next days and responses will be needed for weeks and probably months to help people to go back to their normal situations. thank you very much indeed forjoining us from jakarta. thank you. prescription—only drugs are being sold online to potentially vulnerable patients, according to a bbc panorama investigation. the health care regulator in england, the care quality commission, has called for a change in the law in response to the documentary.

it revealed a legal loophole allowing companies based abroad to sell medication to patients in the uk. faye kirkland, who is also a gp, has this report. with the help of volunteers, panorama went shopping for prescription—only medications. eleanor was treated for anorexia as a teenager and is now completely well. she bought three months‘ worth of prescription slimming pills online. she filled out a questionnaire with a false medical history and was asked no questions about contacting her gp. i have got so many diet pills here. if i had still been in the depths of my illness, it would have been so dangerous for me. literally a massive box of them. eleanor is not overweight and if she had seen a gp face—to—face, she would not have been prescribed these drugs. i am horrified to see some of those sites you have shown me, to see that you click

on the drug and then go through the consultation. this is not right. it is not safe. it has to be sorted. the site can‘t be regulated by the care quality commission because prescribing doctors are contracted by a company outside england. i tracked it down in romania. it‘s called euro rx and the registered address is a flat in timisoara. it‘s 50% owned byjulian eden, who used to be a doctor until he was struck off in 2009, for what was described as ‘cavalier prescribing‘. posing as investors, panorama met him. undercover. panorama has discovered that several uk—based online doctor sites avoid cqc inspection by using doctors contracted by romanian companies. as a gp, it makes me very angry that patients are put at risk. and as a regulator, it actually

makes me even more certain that we need to try to get the legislation changed so that people can'tjust bypass our regulatory activities. the department of health and social care says it‘s working with the cqc to improve patient safety. julian eden told panorama he has never sought to evade cqc oversight and that his shareholding in euro rx is a sensible business investment. and you can watch faye kirkland‘s full investigation in panorama ‘online doctors uncovered‘ on bbc one tonight at half past eight. in wales, you can watch it at 10:40. jamie robertson is here — in a moment, he will be telling us what‘s hot and what‘s not in the business news. first, a look at the headlines on afternoon live. thousands of residents and tourists are evacuated after another earthquake on the indonesian holiday island of lombok —

which has killed more than 90 people. a man‘s appeared in court charged with the murder of the midwife samantha eastwood. england cricketer ben stokes is on trial for affray — over an alleged incident last year, which he denies. here‘s your business headlines on afternoon live. pepsico chief executive indra nooyi is to step down after 12 years at the helm. she is among the world‘s most prominent female business leaders and has consistently appeared on forbes‘ list of the 100 most powerful women, ranking 11th in 2017. pepsico shares have risen 78% since she took the job in 2006. house of fraser will go ahead with a plan to close 31 out of its 59 stores — after it settled a legal row with a group of landlords. the dispute had threatened a potential rescue deal for the chain. the landlords had argued that slashing rents on remaining stores was unfair to them.

but even with a deal now reached, house of fraser says it still urgently needs fresh investment to survive. hsbc — europe‘s biggest bank — made a pre—tax profit of $10.7 billion in the first half of this year. that‘s a 4.6% increase compared with the first half of last year. it did particularly well in asia, despite growing trade tensions between china and the us. the bank‘s share price is down, though. so apparently, the us china trade war is hotting up? we‘re not seeing a huge amount of affect but the language is getting a little bit more heated. china said he was starring in his own "street

fighter—style deceitful drama of extortion and intimidation". all of this comes after china announced tariffs on 5,207 us goods worth $60 billion late on friday. that includes aircraft. that will affect boeing, and the race to get into the huge chinese market. they are conditional if the us goes ahead with the tariffs. on $200 billion worth. these are just planned at the moment and they have not gone into practice. and then, that is on top of $34 billion worth of tariffs on $34 billion worth of goods in

existence on both sides, china and the us. if both these things are added up, you would get goods were three and $60 billion worth which will have tariffs on them. so the war is heating up. kim gittleson, joins us now. a lot of this is what people intend to what they will do, how dangerous situation is this, do you think mr mark yes, you mention the key point, many of these tariffs have been threatened but none of them have gone into effect. when it comes to the chinese imports, the us plans to put 20% tariffs. the earliest they could come into effect is mid—september, which suggests there is still wiggle room for negotiations to continue, although it seems like as you mention, the war of words is heating

up. this was a rare review from china‘s communist party directly targeting president donald trump instead of genuinely —— generally referring to us policy, suggesting they have perhaps lost faith in the president. a lot of these still threatens tariffs and they have not gone into a bet yet and many here on wall street hoped there could be negotiations that continue through august preventing this trade war from happening. i do want to ask you about indra nooyi, the head of pepsi. a trailblazerfor about indra nooyi, the head of pepsi. a trailblazer for women amongst the biggest companies in the united states. what you feel her legacy will be? you know, she had an amazing run, 12 yea rs you know, she had an amazing run, 12 years at the head of pepsi, one of the world‘s biggest food and beverage manufacturers. she is one of 25 ceos of companies and the snp 500 so she has stood out for her strong leadership. she said while

she was focused on returning money to shareholders, she wanted also to plan for the company‘s long—term future which meant diversifying away from the sugary soft drinks pepsi is best known for. she invested in a healthy snack and beverage maker in the hopes of attracting a new generation of consumers to the company. that has seen mixed results. we saw some of its business declining here in the us as a result and the company said it would invest more heavily in marketing the core brands, but i think most observers would say she did a stellarjob at the head of pepsi and they are curious to see what she does next. 0k, curious to see what she does next. ok, thanks very much. how is this new phase in the trade war affecting the markets? we are in the middle of the reporting season and companies are reporting season and companies are reporting their results. generally

speaking, in america, we have had 400 out of 500 have reported and most of them have done well, something like 80% have reported results which are better than the market was expecting. this is the markets in europe. not a huge amount, but they worry about what is going on in the trade tensions between the us and china. they think thatis between the us and china. they think that is what is pushing them down. we have big results later, we have loved hamza and adidas. but we will get back onto the attention on the companies in a couple of days. for now, many thanks. see you later. four endangered bears are settling in to their new home at a wildlife park in south yorkshire, after a remarkable 5,000 mile rescue mission. the animals had spent years in cramped cages in a museum injapan, but now they‘re exploring their new, more spacious surroundings near doncaster, as fiona lamdin explains.

for the last three decades, this has been home to hanako, a brown bear living in a museum in northern japan. her cage — so small, she has only ever been able to take two steps. but four days ago, that changed. first, the oldest male, abu, is sedated by vets. and despite prods from hanako, his next—door neighbour, he remains asleep, while all 350 kilograms of him is stretchered out to a truck. we started at 4am this morning. it is 9am and the bears are in the cranes and being strapped are in the crates and being strapped into the lorry. and here begins their 5,000—milejourney. the main concern — keeping four

bears cool in 43 degrees heat. it‘s a well—planned operation. fans ready to spray the bears, sheets of ice and buckets or watermelon. two flights later, four bears arrive at heathrow. i was sitting on the plane thinking, no—one knows there are four brown bears sitting underneath us. it was quite surreal. nowjust opening the gate. and these the first tentative steps into their new home in yorkshire. they could do very little,it was a concrete floor. it all started two years ago when this animal welfare expert saw the bears in japan. if a bear could express happiness, this would be it. bears can spend up to 18 hours foraging. he hasn't been able to do that. they are really powerful front claws. for the first time, he was able to use his claws and dig. well, kai is 17 and it is the first time in his entire life he has ever been able to take a bath.

getting out, well, that proved a little more problematic. but this is his new, permanent home, so he has a lifetime to master it. time for a look at the weather. here‘s ben rich. good afternoon. for many of us by the end of this week, the weather will have changed quite significantly. but we‘re starting off on the sort of note we‘ve become used to recently. lots of warmth, lots of sunshine, particularly for southern and eastern areas, the further north and west you look across the uk there‘s more in the way of cloud. you can see on the earlier satellite picture this stripe of cloud. quite a weak weather front staggering its way a bit further south and east, bringing cloudy skies, a little bit of rain and a cooler feel across these north—west parts of the uk. further south and east, there is still a lot of heat to be had. 30, 31, 32 degrees across parts

of south—east england through the rest of the afternoon. then we go through this evening and overnight, and it‘s going to be another fairly warm night down towards the south, the odd mist patch, but some clear spells as well. but our weather front still wriggling round parts of wales, northern england, southern scotland, the odd spot of rain. behind that, some clear spells and a few showers, but a cooler, fresher feel. so we get into tomorrow and this stripe of cloud is what remains of our weather front — only really dragging its heels across parts of northern england, parts of wales, into the south—west. not much rain left on it by this stage. to the south—east of it, another sunny day, another hot day, temperatures again into the low 30s celsius. but further north and west, something cooler and fresher, into northern ireland and western scotland, with a few showers. talking of showers, as we go through tuesday evening, there is a chance we will see some showers and thunderstorms clipping into south—east england and east anglia. so don‘t by surprised if you see a flash of lightning or hear a rumble of thunder. further west, a little bit of rain in the forecast as well, because we begin to bring some weather fronts in from the atlantic. but the key thing that these weather

fronts will do by the time we get to wednesday, to introduce much coolerfresher air, so temperatures well down to 24 degrees in london on wednesday. a few showers around, some sunshine as well, similar story on thursday, and then by friday, there is a chance that we bring some wet and windy weather towards the west, because have a look at this. we haven‘t seen this for quite some time. an area of low pressure, drifting in from the atlantic, bringing some outbreaks of rain, potentially some pretty strong wind gusts as well. this is going to feel very different. it will feel like autumn. so it looks as like as we head towards the weekend, some wet and windy weather for a time, not all the time, and a much cooler feel. hello, you‘re watching afternoon live — i‘m carole walker. today at 3. more than 90 people are killed and thousands of residents and tourists are evacuated after the second earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok in a week. and is getting

dark, there is no power, no water, we‘ll hold out and see what happens tomorrow and hopefully we‘ll be able tomorrow and hopefully we‘ll be able to get off the island. on the first day of his trial for affray, a court hears england cricketer ben stokes ‘lost control‘ during a fight. the 27—year—old denies the charge. after being found living in a desert compound, wearing rags and without food or fresh water, eleven children in the us state of new mexico are rescued. donald trump admits his son met a russian lawyer before the presidential election in 2016 "to get information on an opponent", but argues it was legal. and coming up on afternoon live, we have all the sport with holly. hi, we will be hearing from the british women‘s open champion georgia hall

straight from her triumph at royal lytha m straight from her triumph at royal lytham & st anne‘s on the weekend, she says it is a dream come true. more about her triumph after half past three. and that heatwave could be coming to an end. ben has all the details. by this weekend the weather will feel very different, cooler air on the way and wet and windy weather as well. all the details coming up. thanks ben. also coming up — the endangered brown bears from japan settling into their new home in south yorkshire. hello everyone — this is afternoon live — i‘m carole walker. more than ten thousand people — including tourists — have been evacuated from the island of lombok and nearby islands — after the second earthquake in a week.

at least 91 people are known to have died and the authorities say roads and bridges have been destroyed, hampering rescue operations. jane—frances kelly reports. chaotic scenes greeted people waiting to be rescued on the beaches. thousands were on the move trying to get to safety but the the authorities struggled to meet demand. translation most people were killed by a collapsed buildings, evacuation is being done step—by—step due to a shortage of vessels. tourist mike bennett is stuck on one of the gili islands nearby. we heard the authorities had stopped the evacuations because there was so much chaos in lombok. so the boats stopped.

we are here with a hundred people, there‘s no power, the water, we were just told out and see what happens tomorrow. those who managed to get to lombok tried to get flights but it was far from easy. it‘s terrible. we are in the gili, but i don‘t know how to get to the airport. despite the devastation, lombok airport continues to operate, allowing tourists to cut short their holiday and leave. one dutchman who injured his knee was in a restaurant when he felt the effects of the earthquake. the noise was crazy, so i thought, this is bad, this is an earthquake. so i started running to the exit, but everyone in the restaurant was also running to the exit, it was like a big stampede and every one fell, three or four people fell on top of me. the earthquake with a magnitude of 6.9 happened early sunday evening, the second in a week to hit lombok. indonesia is prone to them due to its location

on the pacific ring of fire, an arc of volcanoes and fault lines. those hurt were taken to damaged hospitals, and makeshift clinics as medical staff tried to cope with the sudden influx. indonesia‘s president has called for the immediate evacuation of the injured. translation: i have said work should be carried out as fast as possible to bring out the dead and injured, as well as to provide emergency aid and put on more flights to collect people stuck in more remote areas. the country‘s disaster management agency said military and aid teams were delivering tents and medical aid but the earthquake had damaged roads and bridges making it difficult to move around. it is expected the numbers of confirmed dead will rise in the coming days. jane—frances kelly, bbc news. we have had a statement from the foreign office urging anyone

travelling to this area to check the latest official advice. in a statement a spokesperson said they are working with the indonesian authorities to provide assistance. there are foreign office consular staff deployed to provide assistance, both barley and lombok airports are opening and are both running a full service. more about that on the foreign office website. a man has appeared in court in staffordshire charged with the murder of the midwife samantha eastwood. her body was found on saturday, eight days after she was last seen leaving work at royal stoke university hospital. michael stirling, who‘s 32 and from stoke—on trent, was remanded in custody. caroline davies reports. warm, generous, with a great sense of humour — samantha eastwood, a 28—year—old midwife, was reported missing ten days ago. her disappearance has now become a murder inquiry. appearing in court, 32—year—old michael stirling was charged with samantha‘s murder.

michael is thought to have known samantha. he‘s her former fiance‘s brother—in—law. samantha‘s engagement ended earlier this year. this is the last known image of samantha, here on the left, leaving her night shift at the royal hospital stoke university, ten days ago. when she didn‘t arrive for her shift that evening, her colleagues raised the alarm. samantha‘s body was found on saturday in rural staffordshire, ten miles from her home. michael stirling left the magistrates‘ court after hearing the charges. he will next appear via video link on wednesday at stafford crown court. caroline davies, bbc news. the muslim council of britain has accused boris johnson of pandering to the far—right and denigrating some muslim women, following remarks the former foreign secretary made about the niqab. he said that women wearing this

garment looked like letterboxes. thank you for talking to us, tell us more about what borisjohnson says in his column. boris johnson has been writing in the telegraph. he is talking about the ban on women wearing face veils in denmark. he basically says that in the uk he does not believe they should be a ban on women wearing of the burqa and the niqab. he hasn‘t become a supporter of the burqa, if anything his language is critical. he says women wearing the niqab look like letterboxes and compares them to bank robbers or rebellious teenagers, he says resistance will stiffen their resolve of the burqa is banned. so he isn‘t saying that the burqa should be banned because he supports the burqa, he says it shouldn‘t be banned because if it we re shouldn‘t be banned because if it were band that would boost radicals and in his view mean that other

religious symbols could be banned. so he‘s come under a fair bit of criticism. the muslim council of britain is saying that he‘s pandering to the far right. david lambie, the mp for tottenham, says he is mocking muslim women and describes them as a pound shop donald trump fanning the flames of islamophobia. that language is pretty controversial, david lambie calling him a pound shop donald trump. clearly some in the tory party would be concerned about the tone of this. boris johnson is well known for using colourful language, shall we say but he‘s now using language which in terms of muslim communities is seen as very critical and mocking, as david lambie says, muslim women. certainly that comment about the niqab looking like someone is in about the niqab looking like someone isina about the niqab looking like someone

is in a letterbox, it‘s pretty critical language that he has been criticised for. but borisjohnson is well known for making statements that will get him headlines and he certainly is getting the headlines on this one. david lambie makes the point that it is just borisjohnson trying to promote his own image which is something we have certainly heard before. meanwhile the labour anti—semitism row continues. every attempt byjeremy anti—semitism row continues. every attempt by jeremy corbyn anti—semitism row continues. every attempt byjeremy corbyn to try to address this seems, if anything, to further fuel criticism of his leadership on the issue. yes, that article from jeremy corbyn on friday and then the video on the weekend when he was making the point that he felt labour had not acted quickly enough on cases of anti—semitism. he really wa nted enough on cases of anti—semitism. he really wanted to get that message across to the jewish really wanted to get that message across to thejewish community that he‘s acting on this but that is not what happened, and as we have seen from labour members of the last day

as shocking because tom watson, the deputy leader actually wrote an article yesterday saying that labour was in danger of disappearing into a vortex of external shame over this issue and as a result got handed on labour by people, some of them from the labour party, saying he should resign. we understand labour has suspended one person who made anti—semitic comments towards tom watson on a twitter. but all of this doesn‘t help the party move on. we‘ve heard today from rebecca long bailey, the shadow business secretary, on this issue. she says labour needs to put a stop to this and move onwards. it's a very, very difficult issue, and we're coming from a very dark place. we know that we weren't dealing with issues very quickly when this issue first presented itself. now we need to get to grips with the matter, and we know that we've had jeremy speaking quite openly on this issue over the weekend. we've opened dialogue

with the jewish community to make sure that we get our anti—semitism code of conduct really, really on the button. it has to be, because we've got to restore faith in the jewish community. but i think it will be difficult for mr corbyn to restore the faith that rebecca long bailey spoke about because the jewish rebecca long bailey spoke about because thejewish community rebecca long bailey spoke about because the jewish community so rebecca long bailey spoke about because thejewish community so far, his endeavours, betty put out with his endeavours, betty put out with his article and his statement, they feel he needs to go further especially on the issue of the code of conduct that labour took on which doesn‘t include all the examples of the international definition of anti—semitism. that is something that a lot of people in thejewish community want to see rectified in the labour party. thank you. drug deaths involving the misuse of the powerful painkillerfentanyl, in england and wales, have risen by almost a third, according to new figures. forms of the drug, which is used to treat cancer pain, are often imported illegally

and sold to users via the dark web. meanwhile the office for national statistics says that deaths from synthetic drugs designed to mimic cannabis halved in 2017. police have rescued eleven starving and emaciated children from a filthy makeshift compound in the us state of new mexico. officers searching for a missing three—year—old raided the site near the state border with colorado. the child was not there — but they found eleven others, being kept without enough food and water. rachel wright reports. a makeshift compound in the deserts of new mexico. a prison for 11 children. a small underground caravan covered by plastic and surrounded by tyres, with no running water or electricity. police searched the site after receiving a note which said, "we are starving and need food and water." they found the emaciated children, aged between one and 15,

wearing dirty rags with no shoes. there‘s onions and there‘s oatmeal and rice... the owners of the property, jason and tanya badger, were unaware of what had been happening there. we did the cuddles thing. but not right here. the police also found three women believed to be the children‘s mothers, and two heavily armed men, siraj wahhaj, who is already wanted for the suspected abduction of his three—year—old son, and lucas morton. both men were arrested and charged. all 11 children have been placed in protective custody. the raid on the compound followed a two—month investigation by the police and the fbi. the local sheriff said in all his 30 years on thejob, he had never seen anything like this. rachel wright, bbc news. (pres) the cost of rural crime is soaring — the cost of rural crime is soaring —

it was up to £45 million last year — and farmers across the uk are resorting to medieval methods to try and protect their equipment. according to the insurance company nfu mutual — some farmers — as well as using modern technology, such as cctv, floodlighting and motion sensors — have also built trenches to protect their properties against a growing wave of vehicle, equipment and livestock theft by organised gangs. ian white reports. it‘s an idea that comes from medieval times — moving mounds of earth to create trenches, ditches and barriers to stop criminals getting onto farmland. this scheme in gloucestershire is encouraged by the police and is provided free of charge by local companies. this year, we‘re seeing people bringing things like earth banks, the sort of medieval fortifications last used a thousand years ago, they‘re putting up stockade—like fences around their farms, and using these in conjunction with hi—tech security, like cctv. as you can see, ian, here we are on top of a hill. a mile over that hilltop, and you're

into west yorkshire and keighley... yorkshire sheep farmer david airey knows only too well what it‘s like to be targeted by criminals. his farm in craven spans five miles across three counties, and thieves come at him from all directions. in the last sort of 18 months, it has got beyond a joke. we were being visited at least once a fortnight. i would put it down to two different groups. one group were pinching tools and small items. but our biggest problem is our quad bikes. with equipment costing hundreds of thousands of pounds being kept in remote, isolated areas, sophisticated, sometimes dangerous gangs of criminals know exactly what they‘re looking for. we know organised crime gangs are working notjust across europe but across the world, and that will be paying for other things, that will be paying for large quantities of drugs to come back in, that will be paying for debts to be paid off, that will be paying

forfirearms smuggling. different police forces have different priorities, so there‘s a lack ofjoined—up thinking when it to tackling rural crime. the government says police funding will increase by over £460 million this year, with around £280 million going directly to forces to spend on local priorities. what we‘re trying to do is make sure it‘s harder in every place for criminals to make profit. and to make people safer by working effectively together, understanding what are our tactics, and understanding, as we find here today, what works, what is good for this, and how do we give our officers the best opportunity to chase after criminals. the fear now is that if the police can‘t help, farmers could be tempted to take the law into their own hands. god help me if i ever caught one in the act, you know, and it's wrong, but, you know, i couldn't say what i would do to them.

every chief constable in england has now signed up to a national plan to tackle rural crime, but the police say farmers too must do more to keep their property safe. ian white, bbc news. you‘re watching afternoon live, these are our headlines. more than 90 people are killed and thousands of residents and tourists are evacuated after a second earthquake to strike the indonesian holiday island of lombok within a week. on the first day of his trial for affray, a court hears england cricketer ben stokes ‘lost control‘ during a fight. the 27 year old denies the charge after being found living in a desert compound, wearing rags and without food or fresh water, eleven children in the us state of new mexico are rescued into the hall of fame, georgia hall tells us how it feels to win the british women‘s open after her triumph at royal lytham & st anne‘s last weekend, at the age of 22 it was her first win at 211 and only

the fifth for a british player in the fifth for a british player in the women‘s championship. track cycling gets under way in the european championships and ireland‘s sportsman lister confirms more funding will be made available for the women‘s hockey team after their fairy tale run to the final of the world cup in london. the squad has landed in dublin when a civic reception is taking place this afternoon. i‘ll be back with more about all those stories that have passed three. to the united states now — and president trump has admitted that his eldest son met a group of russians before the 2016 presidential election, to obtain information about the democratic candidate, hillary clinton. mr trump tweeted that what his son did was totally legal. russia has repeatedly denied claims it interfered. (pres) our washington correspondent gary o‘donoghuejoins me now.. our washington correspondent gary o‘donoghuejoins me now..

a pretty significant admission. pretty stark and it‘s pretty clear that it‘s an acknowledgement of what that it‘s an acknowledgement of what that meeting was about but don‘t forget the june meeting that meeting was about but don‘t forget thejune meeting in 2016 is the most concrete use of public evidence we have of any suggestion of collusion between the trump campaign and russia. he has been down this road a bit before coming terms of justifying down this road a bit before coming terms ofjustifying that, last year he said any politician would take that meeting and that politics is a nasty business. the interesting thing today is that he was claiming it was totally legal. some people are questioning that. even if nothing came out of that meeting, you are not allowed to take any benefit from foreign powers are agents of foreign powers in terms of the us political process or elections and even discussing it ordering anything towards

potentially doing that could be seen as conspiracy according to some legal experts and that would be a crime. president trump has consistently tried to dismiss this entire narrative about russian interference, yet this appears to be lending credibility to the claims. it certainly suggests, i think we kind of knew this, it suggests that they were in the market for information about their opponents. from someone outside the country. from someone outside the country. from a foreign government. it suggests they were not averse to the idea of taking that stuff. remember the e—mails that donald trumpjunior was forced to release after news of the meeting became public last year suggested that he‘d responded to the person offering the meeting by saying, if it is what you say it is, i love it, so we know there was a sort of willingness on their part. they have always insisted that after the initial insistence that it was

about adoption policy, which didn‘t last long, they have always insisted that nothing came of it, there was nothing to it, there was no design and collusion. that was something that robert miller will be looking into it now. and now that high profile trial of paul manafort, one of his former aides, is continuing. i don‘t know if you hurt? this is happening as the paul manafort trial is grabbing the headlines. it looks as if we have lost gary. a court has heard that the england cricketer ben stokes ‘lost control‘, during a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last year. the durham all—rounder and two other men — 28—year—old ryan ali and ryan hale, who‘s 27 — deny a charge of affray. our correspondent phil mackie

we have displaced nearly 40,000 plus people. there have been about 1300 plus homes that have been destroyed. but on the good part we have repopulated many areas and got people back into their homes as quickly as possible. skylines across a series of states, including utah, have been lit up by the wildfires. a spectacular sight, but everyone here knows what is at risk. we stayed up there as long as we could in our valley until the flames were, they weren‘t 360 degrees around our area but close enough that we decided to get out. in california alone than a thousand aircraft and fire engines are being used in the attempt to bring the fires under control. but it is proving extraordinarily difficult. firefighters from new zealand and australia are flying to help try tackle the fire north of sacramento, another major blaze. in this state well over 40,000 people have been involved in a huge effort

to put out these flames. but this is only the start of the wildfire season and there is a clear fear of what california could face in the weeks ahead. chris buckler, bbc news. and forecasters are predicting that temperatures across the uk will fall back down to average for this time of year by the end of the week. but across many other parts of the world — heatwaves are continuing. in portugal, hundreds of firefighters are continuing to try and control a major wildfire in the algarve. neighbouring spain continues to swelter in temperatures close to 40 degrees. and it‘s notjust in europe — on the other side of the world, japan and australia are also trying to cope with extreme weather, as richard lister reports. looming over the village of monchique, in southern portugal, a mountain of fire. it has been burning for three days. the extreme heat in the region has turned it into a tinderbox. as the fire moves through, home owners have been returning to see what is left.

this woman was reunited with the animals she was forced to leave behind. they have all had a lucky escape. on the portuguese coast, the heatwave is driving people away from the cafes, the streets are deserted as people seek shade. it is hard, says this man, we‘re brazilian and we have never seen heat like this. it‘s too hot, says ana. it is true it is the summer but we can‘t breathe. parts of switzerland have seen the hottestjuly since records began, so hot that this ageing nuclear power plant has been forced to scale back electricity production to keep vital equipment cool. the drought here means crops are struggling as well,s that‘s not just a european problem. in australia‘s new south wales it‘s winter, but the farmers haven‘t had enough rain

and this year to break the drought. the government has had to intervene with financial support. australian farmers are resilient. they plan for drought. they are good managers. but it can become really overwhelming. this is the worst drought in new south wales since the 1965 drought. across asia, people have been sweltering for weeks. in japan today temperatures nudged 40 degrees. the summer has been the hottest on record, with scores both deaths. so what britain‘s long hot summer? in hyde park today the pictures were empty, the sunshine and a body that seems to have worn off. while it is going to be hot for some for a few more days the bookies have slashed the odds that august could end up being the wettest on record. richard lister, bbc news. the weather at home, the heatwave could be ending, ben has the details. by

by the end of this week the weather will have changed significantly. but we are starting on and we‘ve become used to lately, lots of warmth and sunshine, the further north and west you look the uk there is more cloud. quite weak weather fronts staggering south and east, bringing cloudy skies, eight: feel across the north of the uk and south and east there isa of the uk and south and east there is a lot of heat to be had, across south—east england. through the evening and tonight another fairly warm night towards the south, the odd mr patch but some clear spells as well, whether fund wriggling across northern wales, southern england, the odd spot of rain, behind that a cooler fresher feel. this cloud is what remains of the weather front, only this cloud is what remains of the weatherfront, only dragging its

heels across parts than england, parts of wales into the south—west, not much rain left on it by this stage, to the south—east and other sunni hot day, temperatures into the low 30s celsius, further north and west something cool and fresh into northern ireland and south—western scotla nd northern ireland and south—western scotland with showers. as we go through tuesday evening there‘s a chance we will see showers and storms clipping south—east england and east anglia, so don‘t be surprised if you see a flash of lightening or hear the rumble of thunder. further west a little rain forecast because we begin to bring in some weather fronts from the atlantic. the key thing these weather fronts will do, by wednesday, they will introduce much cooler fresher air. so temperatures well done, 24 degrees in london on wednesday, some showers, some sunshine, similar on thursday and then by friday there‘s a chance that you have wet and windy weather towards the west because look at this. we haven‘t seen this for some time, an area of low pressure

drifting in from the atlantic, potentially some pretty strong wind gusts, this will feel like autumn. by gusts, this will feel like autumn. by week and it looks like wet and windy weather, and a much cooler feel. this is bbc news. our latest headlines: a court‘s been told that the england cricketer ben stokes mocked two gay men and flicked a cigarette butt at one of them before a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last september. the durham all—rounder is on trial along with two other men. all three deny affray. more than 90 people have been killed, and hundreds injured, in another powerful earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok. thousands of residents and tourists, including britons, are being evacuated. a man has appeared in court charged with the murder

audience. that is what chu is talking about, young women contact her on twitter and instagram and it shows you the power she has. georgia hall, from bournemouth, atjust 22 years old, has become just the third briton to win the women‘s british open. and for georgia herself, her first major. and what a way to do it, in front of a home crowd! and when that final putt dropped, it was herfather, wayne, who lifted her into the air in front of the home crowd. it was actually her dad who introduced her to the sport as a seven year old, where he‘d reward her with chocolate for making putts. well, she can buy all the chocolate she wants now! it‘s all still sinking in for georgia but, earlier, she told me it‘s been a life—long ambition. i can‘t believe it. it hasn‘t even been 24 hours yet. i feel i‘ve been so busy,

but it‘s just a dream come true. this is your first major, what a way to do it, on home soil. yeah, it‘s so nice to have so much backing behind me. the crowds were amazing, cheering my name, really getting behind me. it‘s so nice to have that support. to win the british open has been your dream since the age of seven, is that right? yes, that‘s right. i used to hit six footers on the practice green, thinking, this is to win the ladies british open. yes, to have that end, to have a tap—in on the last hole was very fortunate. it‘s just incredible to be up there with some amazing players, world number ones. and that‘s the reason why i started playing golf, to win tournaments like this. and just to have the compliments and text messages from some major champions is just a dream come true. i‘m very happy. no rest for georgia just yet — she‘s heading straight to scotland now for the european championships, where she partners laura davies. meanwhile, there‘s been more

back to you. many thanks. back now to the earthquake that struck the indonesian island of lombok yesterday — leaving more than 90 people dead, and hundreds more injured. 10,000 people have been evacuated on lombok and boats have been sent to rescue more than 1,000 tourists from the nearby gili islands. officals say the northern area of lombok has suffered massive damage, with roads and bridges destroyed. we can speak to richard wecker, risk reduction specialist in disaster management at the humanitarian organisation unicef. thank you very much indeed for joining us. just tell us a bit more about the situation that relief teams are finding on the grounds. hello. well, as you mentioned, it is quite a serious situation. we had a seven point richter scale earthquake yesterday evening north west of eastern lombok. strong shakes were felt all across lombok, across bali

and the islands. electricity has been disrupted in most areas and thousands of buildings have been damaged, including the capital. 91 people have died, 200 injured and 680,000 people are affected, of which we estimate about 204,000 children. the national disaster response agency is supporting the provincial and district level government response, which is including immediate life—saving intervention, search and rescue, the provision of food and water and other relief items, and access to clea n water other relief items, and access to clean water and sanitation, as well as psychosocial support for children and their families. as you as psychosocial support for children and theirfamilies. as you can imagine, schools in northern lombok, eastern lombok and the city were

heavily damaged and there they remain unsafe and safety checks will need to be conducted until children resume class. livelihood has been disrupted for some time and it is risking people‘s access to food. and their food security in general. and presumably, one of the problems for the relief teams is the communications and getting around the country, given the damage to roads and bridges and so on? yes, getting a system is that assistance to the people is constrained by a number of things at the moment, namely, the will limited availability of heavy equipment to clear the roads, the extent of the affected area, as well as electricity cuts, as i mentioned, and damage to cellphones and

landlines, landline telephone connections, damage to bridges in three major places. as well as limited availability of logistics and other services. and what is the biggest need on the ground, what are they finding when they do reach some of these badly affected areas? the key immediate needs, i mentioned before. they are really focused, the national disaster agency has declared mendicant personnel which they are getting support from forjakarta and around the region, clean water, food, blankets, mats, tents. ready prepared meals, as well as psychosocial support services. those are the key immediate needs. thank you very much indeed for talking to us. thank you. there‘s a warning that plans

to build half a million homes on green belt land will do little to help young people get on the property ladder. the campaign to protect rural england says people are being ‘sold a lie‘, with only around a quarter of homes built on greenfield sites last year categorised as ‘affordable‘. the government says last year saw the highest number of new homes built in a decade, and has denied a charge that it‘s ‘tearing up the countryside‘. tim muffett reports. the first green belts were designated in the 1950s, to stop towns and cities sprawling indefinitely. but it‘s claimed today that much of this protected land faces a bigger threat than ever. the campaign to protect rural england has been analysing planning applications. we‘re seeing an unprecedented level of housing planned for the green belt, we‘re seeing plans for 460,000 homes to be built in the next few years. we‘re absolutely for the right housing in the right place, but we don‘t think green belt is the right place. today‘s report claims that over 70% of housing built on green belt land is unaffordable to those on average incomes. it calls for housing to be built

on previously used land, or brownfield sites, instead. but with the government aiming to build 300,000 homes a year by the mid—2020s, some believe the greenbelts can‘t be avoided. the institute of economic affairs is a think tank that promotes free—market views. we've seen the green belt basically double in size over the last 40 years. if we are not willing to look at some of it which is fit for development, then we'll have a permanent housing crisis in britain, not a short to medium—term one. the government says the number of new homes built last year was the in a decade and that only 0.02% of green belt land was developed for housing. it says councils should only give planning permission in exceptional circumstances. tim muffett, bbc news. paul cheshire is professor of

economic geography at the london school of economics. thank you for joining us. do you think the cpre is right in those warnings about the way developments are proceeding on green belt? hello, carol, no, ithink they green belt? hello, carol, no, i think they are entirely wrong and they are essentially engaged in scaremongering. the real scandal is that we buildings so few houses and the houses are in general so unaffordable. last year, we built, across the last nine years on average, we have built 125,000 houses a year, that is well under half the number we need to build. we need to protect beautiful countryside, for heaven‘s sake, of course we need to do that, but there are plenty bits of the green belt, it isa are plenty bits of the green belt, it is a huge area. there are three london underground stations are entirely surrounded by green belt land. we should be building houses

judiciously selected in an environmentally low quality land which may or may not be in the green belt but is close to stations, close to where people can work and where they need to live. we desperately need housing. what the cpre are saying is not just need housing. what the cpre are saying is notjust that they need housing. what the cpre are saying is not just that they are concerned about the loss of green belt, but were developments are going ahead, there is a lack of affordable homes, that there are too many developments going ahead with developers just looking to make profit. carol, this is the truth, if you don‘t build houses and you don‘t build houses year after year, they all become more unaffordable. so when the cpre claimed that only 27% of the houses built on the green belt were affordable, we have to look at what happened in the gla area. in london, and the 22% of new houses are affordable. 27% is not a bad figure, even by national standards. i say not bad, it is a

terrible figure, but the problem is we are not building enough houses so all of them are affordable. thank you very much indeed for joining girls, paul cheshire. ——joining —— joining us. ——joining us. jamie is —— joining us. jamie is hearing a moment to tell us what is hot and what is not in the business news. first, a look at the headlines. england cricketer ben stokes, we hear, mocked two gay men before a fight, the 27—year—old denies the charge. more than 90 people are killed and thousands evacuated after the second earthquake to strike the indonesian island of lombok in a week. and after being found living ina week. and after being found living in a desert compound wearing rags and without food or fresh water, at 11 children in the us state of new mexico are rescued. here‘s your business headlines on afternoon live: pepsico chief executive indra

nooyi is to step down after 12 years at the helm. she is among the world‘s most prominent female business leaders and has consistently appeared on forbes‘ list of the 100 most powerful women, ranking 11th in 2017. pepsico shares have risen 78% since she took the job in 2006. house of fraser will go ahead with a plan to close 31 out of its 59 stores — after it settled a legal row with a group of landlords. the dispute had threatened a potential rescue deal for the chain. the landlords had argued that slashing rents on remaining stores was unfair to them. but even with a deal now reached, house of fraser says it still urgently needs fresh investment to survive. hsbc — europe‘s biggest bank — made a pre—tax profit of $10.7 billion in the first half of this year. that‘s a 4.6% increase compared with the first half of last year. it did particularly well in asia,

despite growing trade tensions between china and the us. the bank‘s share price is down, though. investors still not convinced it has restructured itself in that shift from west to east. thank you. car sales. they have been doing badly. it is the same as last time, it is this consistent drop in the number of diesel cars, down by a quarter on last year. which is a good thing since they are causing so much pollution. manufacturers say the newest diesel ca rs are manufacturers say the newest diesel cars are as good as any other car in terms of their emissions. we can go through the baggage about the history of diesel, but the manufacturers say because of that, new diesels are as clean as anything else on the market. looking at the overall figures, a site pop—up in

terms of the cars, new cars on the road. it is up 1.2%, sorry, moving toa road. it is up 1.2%, sorry, moving to a 21% rise in hybrid and electric cars, doing the opposite of diesel. the overall figure for all registrations is up. and finally, we have since the start of the year, we have since the start of the year, we have seen the amount of car sales the ship going down by 5.5%. still, it is not that healthy, but the last figure we have had is not too bad. we spoke to emma butcher, spokesperson for the estimated, this is what she said. yes, absolutely, we have had a bit of fluctuation in the first six months of the year. we had tax changes which caused people to bring forward or delay purchases and what we are seeing now is the market correct itself, sojuly, great we have got growth injuly. however, bearin have got growth injuly. however, bear in mind this is typically a small month for the new car market

so any variations do stand out. and we were talking about rural crime on the increase and the huge cost when farmers are using some of this very high—tech and advanced equipment. they have more and more high—tech equipment which reduces the amount of labour required on a farm which makes the farm more vulnerable to people breaking in and taking it and the stuff is more attractive because it is more high—tech and valuable. we can go over and talk to the nfu, tim price, nfu is one of the major insurers of farm equipment and farms themselves. tim, give us an idea about why things are getting so much worse at the moment. hello, iam worse at the moment. hello, i am from nfu mutual, the main insurers of farmers in the hand side. at four years of rural crime staying pretty much flat as farmers really boosted security, we have been very alarmed to see it rise by

over 13% in the last year. when we had really hoped the better security measures and also, some good police initiatives, would keep it down. do you know why, though? because very often, you see a rise in rural crime during a recession, but we‘re not having that at the moment. no, what we are seeing with reports coming in from all over the country is farmers telling us there is a new breed of criminals who are much more brazen, very determined, and they are getting round some of the high—tech security measures that have been put in place in the last few years. so our message to farmers is to continually try and keep one step ahead of the thieves by improving security. that is expensive and time—consuming, but u nfortu nately, expensive and time—consuming, but unfortunately, that is the situation we are now in across the countryside. what do you do with some of this kit if you steal it? if you still a tractor which has got systems in it and stuff distributing fertiliser and pesticides, where is

the market for something like that, if you are a criminal? well, until about eight years ago, rural crime was typically local and opportunist. and international gangs of criminals who had made a lot of money stealing push cars like a ferrari found out tractors cost about the same amount asa tractors cost about the same amount as a ferrari and they were in demand all over the world and unlike a ferrari, there is no left or right hand drive, use it in the middle. so tractor theft became massive and machines are now taken from farms and put on the back of a low loader or curtain sided, taken across the channel, going through eastern europe and sold across the world. what is this doing to your insurance business, is it putting up premiums? we are keeping premiums static as much as we can. we are mutual insurer and we much as we can. we are mutual insurerand we are much as we can. we are mutual insurer and we are there to look after our customers and we‘re putting a lot of money into working with the police to try and stamp out rural crime. at the last count, we

have supported police schemes to the chew of £1.2 million. but we are there to help our customers whenever we can and by doing so, it reduces the claims bill. so we‘re very pleased to support these because when they work, they make it better forfarmers in the when they work, they make it better for farmers in the countryside and reduce the claims bill. thanks very much indeed. tim price. from the nfu. back to you. jamie, many thanks. four endangered bears are settling in to their new home at a wildlife park in south yorkshire, after a remarkable 5,000 mile rescue mission. the animals had spent years in cramped cages in a museum injapan, but now they‘re exploring their new, more spacious surroundings near doncaster, as fiona lamdin explains. for the last three decades, this has been home to hanako, a brown bear living in a museum in northern japan. her cage so small, she has only ever been able to take two steps.

but four days ago, that all changed. first, the oldest male, amu, is sedated by vets. and despite prods from hanako, his next—door neighbour, he remains asleep, while all 350 kilograms of him is stretchered out to a truck. we started at 4am this morning. it‘s now 9am and all four bears are in the crates and just being strapped to the lorry. and here begins their 5,000—milejourney. the main concern — keeping four bears cool in 43—degree heat. it‘s a well—planned operation. fans at the ready to spray the bears, sheets of ice and buckets or watermelon. two flights later, four bears arrive at heathrow. i was sitting on the plane thinking, no—one on this flight knows knows there‘s four brown bears sitting underneath us.

it was quite surreal. i'mwjust opening the gate now. and these the first tentative steps into their new home in yorkshire. they could do very little, it was a concrete floor. it all started two years ago, when this animal welfare expert saw the bears injapan. if a bear could express happiness, that would be it. bears can spend up to 18 hours foraging. so he's never been able to do that. they're really powerful front claws and for the first time just now, he was able to use his claws and dig. well, kai is 17 and it‘s the first time in his entire life he has ever been able to take a bath. getting out, well, that proved a little more problematic. but this is his new, permanent home, so he‘s got a lifetime to master it. time for a look at the weather.

here‘s ben rich. and some cooler weather on the way. good afternoon. for many of us, by the end of this week, the weather will have changed quite significantly. but we‘re starting off on the sort of note we‘ve become used to recently. lots of warmth, lots of sunshine, particularly for southern and eastern areas. the further north and west you look across the uk, there‘s more in the way of cloud. you can see on the earlier satellite picture this stripe of cloud. quite a weak weather front staggering its way a bit further south and east, bringing cloudy skies, a little bit of rain and a cooler feel across these north—west parts of the uk. further south and east, there is still a lot of heat to be had. 30, 31, 32 degrees across parts of south—east england through the rest of the afternoon. then we go through this evening and overnight, and it‘s going to be another fairly warm night down towards the south, the odd mist patch, but some clear spells as well. but our weather front still wriggling round parts of wales, northern england, southern scotland, the odd spot of rain. behind that, some clear spells and a few showers, but a cooler, fresher feel. so we get into tomorrow and this stripe of cloud is what remains of our weather front —

only really dragging its heels across parts of northern england, parts of wales, into the south—west. not much rain left on it by this stage. to the south—east of it, another sunny day, another hot day, temperatures again into the low 30s celsius. but further north and west, something cooler and fresher, into northern ireland and western scotland, with a few showers. talking of showers, as we go through tuesday evening, there isjust a chance that we will see some showers and thunderstorms clipping into south—east england and east anglia. so don‘t by surprised if you see a flash of lightning or hear a rumble of thunder. further west, a little bit of rain in the forecast as well, because we begin to bring some weather fronts in from the atlantic. but the key thing that these weather fronts will do by the time we get to wednesday, is introduce much coolerfresher air, so temperatures well down to 24 degrees in london on wednesday. a few showers around, some sunshine as well, similar story on thursday, and then by friday, there is a chance that we bring some wet and windy weather towards the west, because have a look at this. we haven‘t seen this for quite some time.

an area of low pressure, drifting in from the atlantic, bringing some outbreaks of rain, potentially some pretty strong wind gusts as well. this is going to feel very different. it will feel something like autumn. so it looks as like as we head towards the weekend, some wet and windy weather for a time, not all the time, and a much cooler feel. windy weather, and a much cooler feel. hello, you‘re watching afternoon live — i‘m carole walker. today at 4. england cricketer ben stokes "mocked two gay men" before a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last year, a court‘s heard. the 27—year—old all—rounder is on trial with two other men for affray — which they all deny. more than 90 people are killed and thousands of residents and tourists evacuated after the second earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok in a week.

everyone started running to the hills. everyone followed each other and then we slept on the mountain until morning. former foreign secretary boris johnson is accused of islamaphobia — after saying muslim women who wear burkas look like "letter boxes" and "bank robbers". after being found living in a desert compound, wearing rags and without food or fresh water, eleven children in the us state of new mexico are rescued. coming up on afternoon live, all the sport with holly. great to see women grabbing the sports headlines this afternoon. absolutely, all weekend long as while! later we will hear from the british women‘s open champion georgia hall after her win at royal

i‘m carole walker. a court has heard that the england cricketer ben stokes mocked two gay men and ‘lost control‘, during a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last year. the durham all—rounder and two other men — 28—year—old ryan ali and ryan hale, who‘s 27 — deny a charge of affray. earlier, my colleague phil mackie sent this report from bristol crown court. this afternoon we have been shown a great deal of cctv footage of the incident which happened in the early hours of monday, september 25 last year here in bristol outside the embargo nightclub in an area of the city centre known as the triangle. we‘ve seen footage from different angles and also some phone footage filmed by a student who lived in a flat overlooking the nightclub. that is probably the footage that will attract most attention. you can see attract most attention. you can see a fight involving several men

including england cricketer ben stokes. and the other two defendants, ryan ali and ryan hale, as well as ben sto kes‘s ali and ryan hale, as well as ben stokes‘s team—mate alex hales was with him that evening. ben stokes can be seen throwing a couple of punches and the other two defendants carrying weapons at various stages of the fight. we‘ve also seen footage and heard evidence from the doorman at a club that early get the two cricketers had been in the club and had come back to the club at 2am and had come back to the club at 2am and been refused entry. apparently ben stokes had offered them £300 to get in but was still told no and became angry and aggressive with the doorman earlier. the same doorman said ben stokes had mocked and openly gay couple in the nightclub and had flicked cigarette ash at them. this is a trial that began today and is expected to last until next week, opening the case for the prosecution the court heard this is a sustained period of significant

violence. it‘s that cctv footage which forms the basis of the prosecution evidence of a trial that will go on until the middle of next week. we don‘t expect the defence to start until later this week at which point we will hear from the defendants including ben stokes, and they will put their side of the story. more than ten thousand people — including tourists — have been evacuated from the island of lombok and nearby islands — after the second earthquake in a week. at least 91 people are known to have died and the authorities say roads and bridges have been destroyed, hampering rescue operations. jane—frances kelly reports. chaotic scenes greeted people waiting to be rescued on the beaches. thousands were on the move trying to get to safety but the authorities struggled to meet demand. translation: most victims were killed by a collapsed

buildings, evacuation is being done step—by—step due to a shortage of vessels. tourist mike bennett is stuck on one of the gili islands we heard the authorities had stopped the evacuations because there was so much chaos in lombok. so the boats stopped. we are here with about a hundred people, there‘s no power, the water, we we re are just going to hold out and see what happens tomorrow. those who managed to get to lombok tried to get flights but it was far from easy. it‘s terrible. we are in the gili, but i don‘t know how to go to the airport. despite the devastation, lombok airport continues to operate, allowing tourists to cut short their holiday and leave. one dutchman who injured his knee was in a restaurant when he felt the effects of the earthquake. the noise was crazy, so i thought, this is bad, this is an earthquake.

so i started running to the exit, but everyone in the restaurant was also running to the exit, it was like a big stampede and every one fell, three or four people fell on top of me. the earthquake with a magnitude of 6.9 happened early sunday evening, the second in a week to hit lombok. indonesia is prone to them due to its location on the pacific ring of fire, an arc of volcanoes and fault lines. those hurt were taken to damaged hospitals, and makeshift clinics as medical staff tried to cope with the sudden influx. indonesia‘s president has called for the immediate evacuation of the injured. translation: i have said work should be carried out as fast as possible to bring out the dead and injured, as well as to provide emergency aid and put on more flights to collect people stuck in more remote areas. the country‘s disaster management agency said military and aid teams

were delivering tents and medical aid but the earthquake had damaged roads and bridges making it difficult to move around. it is expected the numbers of confirmed dead will rise in the coming days. jane—frances kelly, bbc news. and in the last few hours the foreign office has released a statement saying it has deployed consular staff to lombok to provide assistance. chaotic scenes greeted people waiting to be rescued on the beaches. we have already heard that report. the foreign office has released a statement saying it has deployed consular staff to lombok to provide assistance. as well as urging anyone travelling to the area to check the latest official travel advice. in the statement, the foreign office said: "we are working with the indonesian authorities to provide assistance to british people caught up in the earthquake in lombok. bali and lombok airports are open and running a full service. extra flights are being added to help people who wish to leave lombok.

a man has appeared in court in staffordshire, charged with the murder of the midwife samantha eastwood. her body was found on saturday, eight days after she was last seen leaving work at royal stoke university hospital. michael stirling, who‘s 32 and from stoke—on trent, was remanded in custody. caroline davies reports. warm, generous, with a great sense of humour — samantha eastwood, a 28—year—old midwife, was reported missing ten days ago. her disappearance has now become a murder inquiry. appearing in court, 32—year—old michael stirling was charged with samantha‘s murder. michael is thought to have known samantha. he‘s her former fiance‘s brother—in—law. samantha‘s engagement ended earlier this year. this is the last known image of samantha, here on the left, leaving her night shift at the royal hospital stoke university, ten days ago. when she didn‘t arrive for her shift that evening, her colleagues raised the alarm. samantha‘s body was found on saturday in rural staffordshire, ten miles from her home.

michael stirling left the magistrates‘ court after hearing the charges. he will next appear via video link on wednesday at stafford crown court. caroline davies, bbc news. the muslim council of britain has accused boris johnson of "pandering to the far—right" and ‘denigrating‘ some muslim women, following remarks the former foreign secretary made about the niqab. in his newspaper column, the former foreign secretary said women wearing burkas ‘look like letter boxes‘ or bank robbers. joining me now is our political correspondent susana mendonca. not for the first time boris johnson sterling up controversy with his newspaper column. no stranger to colourful language, here he is again doing that and offending people from the muslim community. that is because the comments that they see as islamophobic is where he‘s

basically talking about women wearing the hijab or the burger and he describes them as looking like letterboxes. he says they look like bank robbers. not very pleasant language. —— wearing the burqa. these comments have been taken as islamophobic by the muslim council of britain and we‘ve also heard from other mps, david lambie said this was mocking muslim women, he described boris johnson was mocking muslim women, he described borisjohnson as a pound shop donald trump. another labour mp says she has referred mrjohnson to the equality and human rights commission of this because she sees this as islamophobic. labour still embroiled in that row of anti—semitism. and even some of jeremy corbyn ‘s closest allies are now really concerned at how much damage this is doing. very much so. we saw at the weekend jeremy corbyn trying to do this in terms of putting out a newspaper article and

a video talking about how labour had been too slow to act in cases where labour was accused of anti—semitism, trying to reach out to thejewish community. what we have had over the last 24 hours is an onslaught against tom watson, the deputy labour leader. that‘s because he had written an article which he described labour potentially disappearing into a vortex of eternal shame. as a result he‘s been bombarded by many corbyn supporters and even some labour party members. george mcmanus, from the national policy forum, he posted something which was referred to the labour party by another labour mp who saw it as anti—semitic. and he has been suspended quite quickly today, pending an investigation. labour wanting to be seen to act quickly. this is an issue that isn‘t going away and people are concerned about it. we‘ve heard to date from the shadow cabinet, from rebecca long baby the shadow business secretary,

saying something needs to be done very quickly. —— rebecca long bailey. it's a very, very difficult issue, and we're coming from a very dark place. we know that we weren't dealing with issues very quickly when this issue first presented itself. now we really need to get to grips with the matter, and we know that we've had jeremy speaking quite openly on this issue over the weekend. we've opened dialogue with the jewish community to make sure that we get our anti—semitism code of conduct really, really on the button. it has to be, because we've got to restore faith in the jewish community. but to restore that faith the jewish community wants the labour party to ta ke community wants the labour party to take on all the definitions in the international interpretation of anti—semitism. something labour hasn‘t done so far. we understand the nec is looking into it. i think those in thejewish community who have been critical will want action on that quickly. thank you for the latest, from westminster. police have rescued eleven starving

and emaciated children from a filthy makeshift compound in the us state of new mexico. officers searching for a missing three—year—old raided the site near the state border with colorado. the child was not there — but they found eleven others, being kept without enough food and water. rachel wright reports. a makeshift compound in the deserts of new mexico. a prison for 11 children. a small underground caravan covered by plastic and surrounded by tyres, with no running water or electricity. police searched the site after receiving a note which said, "we are starving and need food and water." they found the emaciated children, aged between one and 15, wearing dirty rags with no shoes. there‘s onions and there‘s oatmeal and rice... the owners of the property, jason and tanya badger, were unaware of what had been happening there. we did the cuddles thing. but not right here. the police also found three women

believed to be the children‘s mothers, and two heavily armed men, siraj wahhaj, who is already wanted for the suspected abduction of his three—year—old son, and lucas morton. both men were arrested and charged. all 11 children have been placed in protective custody. the raid on the compound followed a two—month investigation by the police and the fbi. the local sheriff said in all his 30 years on thejob, he had never seen anything like this. rachel wright, bbc news. you‘re watching afternoon live, these are our headlines. on the first day of his trial for affray, a court hears england cricketer ben stokes "mocked two gay men" before a fight. the 27 year old denies the charge. more than 90 people are killed and thousands of residents

and tourists evacuated after the second earthquake to strike the indonesian island of lombok in a week. former foreign secretary boris johnson is accused of islamophobia after saying muslim women who wear burqa ‘s look like letterboxes and bank robbers. and still to come... from digging trenches to building ‘strong rooms‘— the measures taken by farmers to tackle a rise in rural crime. and in sport into the hall of fame, georgia hall tells us how it feels to win the women‘s british open after that triumph at royal lytham saint anne ‘s last weekend. aged 22 it was a first win at tour level and only the fifth for a british woman ata only the fifth for a british woman at a major championship. a dramatic bronze, with bollywood in the madison to claim third medal at the european championships in glasgow. they took the final sprint of the 200 lap race with double points to

get onto the podium. and britain‘s athletics captain guy green has pulled out of the championship this afternoon due to a tight hamstring. he was due to compete in qualifying in berlin this afternoon. —— dai greene. more on all those stories at 4:30pm. the cost of rural crime is soaring — it was up to £45 million pounds last year — and farmers across the uk are resorting to medieval methods to try and protect their equipment. according to the insurance company nfu mutual — some farmers — as well as using modern technology, such as cctv, floodlighting and motion sensors — have also built trenches to protect their properties against a growing wave of vehicle, equipment and livestock theft by organised gangs. ian white reports. it‘s an idea that comes from medieval times — moving mounds of earth to create trenches, ditches and barriers to stop criminals

getting onto farmland. this scheme in gloucestershire is encouraged by the police and is provided free of charge by local companies. this year, we‘re seeing people bring in things like earth banks, the sort of medieval fortifications last used a thousand years ago, they‘re putting up stockade—like fences around their farms, and using these in conjunction with hi—tech security, like cctv. as you can see, ian, here we are on top of a hill. a mile over that hilltop, and you're into west yorkshire and keighley... yorkshire sheep farmer david airey knows only too well what it‘s like to be targeted by criminals. his farm in craven spans five miles across three counties, and thieves come at him from all directions. in the last sort of 18 months, it has got beyond a joke. we were being visited at least once a fortnight. i would put it down to two different groups. one group were pinching tools and small items.

but our biggest problem is our quad bikes. with equipment costing hundreds of thousands of pounds being kept in remote, isolated areas, sophisticated, sometimes dangerous gangs of criminals know exactly what they‘re looking for. we know organised crime gangs are working notjust across europe but across the world, and that will be paying for other things, that will be paying for large quantities of drugs to come back in, that will be paying for debts to be paid off, that will be paying forfirearms smuggling. different police forces have different priorities, so there‘s a lack ofjoined—up thinking when it to tackling rural crime. the government says police funding will increase by over £460 million this year, with around £280 million going directly to forces to spend on local priorities. what we‘re trying to do is make sure it‘s harder in every place for criminals to make profit. and to make people safer by working effectively together,

understanding what our tactics are, and understanding, as we find here today, what works, what is good for this, and how do we give our officers the best opportunity to chase after criminals. the fear now is that if the police can‘t help, farmers could be tempted to take the law into their own hands. god help me if i ever caught one in the act, you know, and it's wrong, but, you know, i couldn't say what i would do to them. every chief constable in england has now signed up to a national plan to tackle rural crime, but the police say farmers too must do more to keep their property safe. ian white, bbc news. drug deaths involving the misuse of the powerful painkillerfentanyl, in england and wales, have risen by almost a third, according to new figures. forms of the drug, which is used to treat cancer pain, are often imported illegally and sold to users via the dark web. meanwhile, the office for national statistics says that deaths from synthetic drugs designed to mimic cannabis halved in 2017. in the united states a state of emergency has been

declared in california, as wildfires rage across the region. thousands of firefighters are tackling blazes which have been spread by high temperatures and strong winds. so far, seven people have died and thousands of homes have been evacuated. our north america correspondent, chris buckler reports. for more than a week, parts of california in a state of emergency. and now as a result of the destruction and death caused by the ferocious fires, the white house has declared this as a major disaster. we have displaced nearly 40,000 plus people. there have been about 1300 plus homes that have been destroyed. but on the good part we have repopulated many areas and got people back into their homes as quickly as possible. skylines across a series of states,

including utah, have been lit up by the wildfires. a spectacular sight, but everyone here knows what is at risk. we stayed up there as long as we could in our valley until the flames were, they weren‘t 360 degrees around our area but close enough that we decided to get out. in california alone than a thousand aircraft and fire engines are being used in the attempt to bring the fires under control. but it is proving extraordinarily difficult. firefighters from new zealand and australia are flying to help try tackle the fire north of sacramento, another major blaze. in this state well over 40,000 people have been involved in a huge effort to put out these flames. but this is only the start of the wildfire season and there is a clear fear of what california could face in the weeks ahead. chris buckler, bbc news. more now on the earthquake on the island of lombok in indonesia. the president, joko widodo,

has called for the immediate evacuation of all casualites after the 6.9 magnitude quake struck on sunday, killing more than 90 people. so far more than 10,000 people have been evacuated from lombok and the neighbouring gili islands. to discuss this in more detail — i am joined by our correspondent endang nurdin from bbc news indonesia. thank you forjoining us. . what are you hearing about the scale of the problems? the number of casualties is now reaching 98 with over 230 injured. the number of casualties is expected to rise because many people are believed to be trapped in the rubble of buildings including houses and mosques. many rescuers haven‘t reached the area yet because there

are shattered roads and broken bridges which hamper the efforts. when building which was destroyed was a concrete mosque in the hardest hit area of north lombok. there were fears that around 50 people were trapped in the mosque, and only a few bodies recovered. is the government managing to mobilise sufficient people to cope with this? there are insufficient tents so thousands of people are staying outside because there is no shelter for them and the government are sending in logistics including food supplies, paramedics, and also medicines. because many of the

injured are treated outside the hospital building. they are treated in temporary tents outside the hospitals. there seemed to be local people in the area. so far more than 2000 tourists, mostly foreign tourists, have been evacuated from the popular tourist area, gili islands in the west of lombok, away from the hardest hit area of north lombok. blanch thank you so much for

joining us. european powers have again said they deeply regret the imminent re—imposition of us sanctions on iran over its nuclear programme. the white house will announce details of the sanctions later today. in a joint statement, the european union and the foreign ministers of germany, britain and france, promised to protect european companies doing legitimate business with iran. in may, president trump pulled the us out of an international agreement, known as thejcpoa, aimed at curbing iran‘s nuclear programme. our washington correspondent gary o‘donoghuejoins me now. what are we expecting to hear from the white house about the scale of the white house about the scale of the sanctions? well, we've had a briefing already this morning from the white house about the details of this first wave of sanctions and they will cover things like trading gold and other precious metals, they will cover the automotive industry,

certain financial services, certain transactions in the us dollar, and they‘ll come into effect at midnight tonight. there will be another wave of sanctions imposed in november that will affect the oil industry and iranian oil exports. what the americans are saying is, any governments, any foreign businesses that do business with iran in defiance of these sanctions will face severe consequences. again you have another stand—off between the us and its allies over a key foreign policy issue. the europeans and indeed leaders in the uk saying that they want to try to continue with they want to try to continue with the original deal, two in a way defied these sanctions, that is going to create quite a rift with the us, isn‘t it? going to create quite a rift with the us, isn't it? it has already. they were six signatories as well as iran to this deal. the permanent five of the united nations, plus russia, and germany, and france and

china and the uk. everyone is still on board except the us, its unilateral decision on the part of donald trump to pull out back in may. but the us does has huge consequences. there has been some debate about whether the us would allow waivers, in the briefing this morning, they would say that they would look at things on a case—by—case basis, countries like china and india are not happy about this embargo coming into effect in november. gary, thank you for the latest from washington. now the weather. we have talked about heatwaves. along that we have got used to this mediterranean

lifestyle, and suddenly we‘ve got to go back to normal wellies and things! normal things like umbrellas, do you know where yours is? you‘re going to get wet by this weekend, then! big changes on the way. we are going to get back to something that you might say is a bit more normalfor a while. let me show you what is going on, this is the forecast reading. i picked one place in the south—east, tomorrow not far off, look at how those temperatures dip away, down to the low 20s, celsius, and by the weekend ‘s reign shows up. further north and west, north wales for instance, in holyhead, already cooler. as we get to friday and saturday, what‘s this, heavy rain. and pretty strong winds as well. this is a sign of what is to come. the jet stream, as this is a sign of what is to come. thejet stream, as i‘m sure this is a sign of what is to come. the jet stream, as i‘m sure you know, it‘s the wind high up in the

atmosphere, the wins that travel the weather around the world. it‘s been a long way north, keeping as in the warm air but it is dipping a long way south this weekend and that brings the return of something cooler. what it will also do is spin at one of these. this is the sort of chap would expect to see in the autumn rather than the summer. the deep area of low pressure, a lot of white lines on this chart. weather fronts bringing outbreaks of rain, strong winds, gusts of 50 larsson hour or more. this is the end of the week into the weekend, still a fair bit to play for. the water companies will be relieved! and people with gardens, looking parched. and all those parched parks. that is quite ha rd to those parched parks. that is quite hard to say! across the country the grass will get water at last. given that this is likely to happen on the weekend, people with travel plans and those people not used to anything except the warmth and this

in turn, this will come as a bit of a shock. thank you, ben. let‘s see how things are shaping up. today there‘s still some fine weather. this is how it looked hampshire earlier. further north we‘ve got a bit more clout, that was five earlier. this rigging stripe of cloud, a weather front, earlier. this rigging stripe of cloud, a weatherfront, quite earlier. this rigging stripe of cloud, a weather front, quite a weak one, bringing some outbreaks of patchy rain and introducing that slightly cooler air. further south and east, still some warm sunshine to enjoy temperatures in london about 32 degrees today and early in the evening post a bridges won‘t drop far. at seven o‘clock it could still be about 31 degrees in london. further north and west something cooler, fresher, and through tonight, this band of cloud will not make much progress. still in place across southern scotland, across northern england, the odd spot of

rain, to the north west something cooler and fresher with a mix of clear spells and showers further south and east, a warm night, clear spells in the odd misty patch. it‘s going to be another hot sunny day. further west more clout, some outbreaks of patchy rain across northern england and wales of our old weather front and further west once more a mixture of sunshine and showers but some big temperature contrasts, more like 31 degrees again in norwich and london. in those south—east hotspots there‘s a chance tomorrow we could see showers and thunderstorms from the continent creeping into the south—east. maybe the london area, and parts of east anglia. we should clear those showers and storms away as we get into wednesday. further weather fronts ad in the atlantic and the jet stream diving further south. so that allowing cooler fresher air to push across all parts the country. having said that, there will still be some time, the best of the dry

whether, some showers in the westerly breeze and those temperatures, forget the 30s in the south—eastern corner, we are looking at mid 20s at the best and further west the high teens is you‘re not, wednesday, a similar day, thursday, colour and fresher, and by friday the first hints of the wet and windy weather and west. as i said, some uncertainty about the timing but as we head into the week and it looks as if for the time there will be wet and windy weather and it will feel significantly cooler. some this is bbc news. our latest headlines: a court‘s been told that the england cricketer ben stokes mocked two gay men and flicked a cigarette butt at one of them, before a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last september. the durham all—rounder is on trial, along with two other men. all three deny affray. at least 98 people have been killed, and hundreds injured, in another powerful earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok. thousands of residents and tourists, including britons,

european championship as well, but todayis european championship as well, but today is all about georgia hall. in this morning‘s papers, they‘re calling her the "queen of green", into the "hall of fame". georgia hall, from bournemouth, atjust 22 years old, has become just the third briton to win the women‘s british open. and for georgia herself, her first major. and what a way to do it, in front of a home crowd! and everyone was watching. and when that final putt dropped, it was herfather, wayne, who lifted her into the air in front of the home crowds. it was actually her dad who introduced her to the sport as a seven year old, and he‘d reward her with chocolate for making putts. well, she can buy all the chocolate she wants now! it‘s all still sinking in for georgia but, earlier, georgia told me it‘s been a life—long ambition. i can‘t believe it. it hasn‘t even been 24 hours yet. and ifeel i‘ve been so busy, but it‘s just a dream come true. and this is your first major, what a way to do it, on home soil as well. yeah, it‘s so nice to have so much backing behind me. and the crowds were amazing,

they were cheering my name, really getting behind me. it‘s so nice to have that support. to win the british open has been your dream since the age of seven, is that right? yeah, that‘s right. i used to hit six—footers on the practice green, thinking, this is to win the ladies‘ british open. yes, to have that, and to have that tap—in on the last hole was very fortunate. it‘s just incredible to be up there with some amazing players, world number ones. and that‘s the reason why i started playing golf, to win tournaments like this. and just to have the compliments and text messages from some major champions isjust a dream come true. i‘m very happy. to the european championships in glasgow now, where britain‘s ethan hayter has won a dramatic bronze alongside ollie wood in the madison to claim his third medal of the european championships. the pair took the final sprint of the 200—lap race — worth double points — to move themselves onto the podium. hayter can add it to his first bronze in the pursuit as well as his gold medal in the omnium. and jack carlin‘s semi—final

in the men‘s sprint is coming down to the third and final ride. carlin won the first race, but the result was overturned. and then stefan botticher won the second, but that was overturned. it‘s down to a decider to see who makes the final tonight. meanwhile, the swimming will get back under way in just under half an hour. britian‘s georgia davies is due to take part is due to take part in the semi—final of the women‘s 100—metres backstroke. she came third in her heat earlier and will go again tonight along with gb teammate kathleen dawson. she‘ll be lookng to add to her gold medal in the 50m backstroke — which she won yesterday. and earlier, james guy, who won gold with the relay team last night, was back in the pool to win his heat and go through to the semi—finals of the 200m freestyle with the third fastest time overall. the athletics gets under way properly over in berlin tomorrow — the other host city of this event — but qualifying has been taking place there today. but in the last hour,

it‘s emerged that great britain‘s captain will not be taking any part in the championships. ade adedoyin is in berlin. this will be hugely disappointing for dai greene to find out who will not be taking part in the championships. yes, this is dai greene‘s their season for some years and his first major championships since 2013, but we understand he has suffered a tight hamstring in a warm up for his 400 m hurdles race so he was forced to pull out. he was a world champion and he also >> weather—macro: the european and commonwealth title and came into this championships with high hopes of performing well but the injury has struck again, he has battled injury and illness since 2011. petition athletics have posted a message and they say he has been an amazing captain so far and he will continue to inspire the team from the sidelines. more british medal hopefuls, though. who should we be looking out for?

yes, a number of british athletes topping the european rankings going into these championships. britain can boast the fastest man and woman in europe this season, as far as the women, dina asher—smith in great form. she is the fastest in europe and she broke the british record at diamond league meeting in oslo. darnell hughes is the joint fastest alongsidejimmy darnell hughes is the joint fastest alongside jimmy vicaut of darnell hughes is the joint fastest alongsidejimmy vicaut of france. and prescod is the only man to meet the hundred metre final in the last year‘s championships. lorraine hugh jackman, seven metres, she has cleared the season, she will go into long jump as one of the favourites does lorraine is john. long jump as one of the favourites does lorraine isjohn. so it could bea does lorraine isjohn. so it could be a great night for britain when those races take place. coverage is continuing on bbc one but, from me, that‘s all the sport for now.

carol. now on afternoon live, let‘s go nationwide and see what‘s happening around the country, in our daily visit to the bbc newsrooms around the uk. let‘s go to the bbc look east studio in norwich and join amelie reynolds, who can tell us more about the latest figures by nfu mutual that show rural crime cost farmers in the east nearly £6 million last year. according to the annual rural crime report, three counties in the east are on the top ten worst affected in the country. tell us a bit more about the sort of incident you are seeing there. there isa incident you are seeing there. there is a whole range of them, carol. everything from stealing high—value tools to sell on the black market, tools to sell on the black market, to taking farm machinery, vehicles,

even fuel kept on farms. we are talking about hare coursing, poaching, fly—tipping. and i want to show you some pictures of a serious arson attack that took place on a farm in suffolk recently. it was a pig farm. as you can see, arsonists set fire to four stack of straw bales, 460 tonnes, worth £30,000 went up in flames. the farmer has put upa went up in flames. the farmer has put up a reward because he is so desperate to find out who was responsible. rural crime worth more than almost £6 million in this region last year, the three counties that we have in the top ten worst affected a re essex that we have in the top ten worst affected are essex and cambridgeshire, rural crime totalling £1.5 million. and in suffolk, that has seen the biggest increase, it is up 27% on the previous year. to 1.2 million in

suffolk. and what is being done to tackle this problem? well, suffolk has one of the view of the uk‘s dedicated rural policing teams and the police and crime commissioner for the county is telling us it is very much a priority, but we all know police resources are stretched. farmers are telling us the onus is increasingly on them and they are doing everything they can to keep the gangs in their 4x4 is off their land so they are building earth mounds and digging ditches, putting in better security systems, fences, blockades. i think what we also picking up on, there is higher in greece of anxiety among farmers about being the victim of rural crime —— high increase. they are aware of their rural location is making them, their machinery and livestock are very vulnerable. one interesting thing in today‘s report, actually, a lot of rural crime is

still being underreported, perhaps because farmers think it is not worth their while, perhaps it will not get locked into. but if you to report the crime, the crime is underestimated and you don‘t get the but and the resources into trying to tackle it. many thanks. and keeley donovan is in leeds, where a wildlife park has become home to four rare brown bears, after a remarkable rescue mission. the animals had spent years in small cages in a museum injapan, but now they‘re able to explore their new, more spacious surroundings. and, keeley... why were these bears moved from japan? well, two yea rs well, two years ago, animal charity wild welfare, came across the four bears living in cramped conditions ina museum bears living in cramped conditions in a museum injapan. these images

really are heartbreaking. the cages we re really are heartbreaking. the cages were so small that these bears could only take two steps in either direction. and a fully grown one can wait 86 stone, that is 550 kilograms, so they are big animals. these bears lived in these conditions between two and three decades, but four days ago, they began their 5,500 mile journey to beautiful yorkshire. the bears were sedated and the main concern was keeping these creatures call in 43 degrees heat. they used fans and sheets of ice and huge buckets of watermelon during the two flights to heathrow. so, what is their new home like? in yorkshire. exactly, yes. the animal charity wild welfare says the bears will receive rehabilitation, enrichment and lifelong care at the wildlife park in doncaster. they will have plenty of space outdoors and indoors and they have even got a

bath. the charity says it is much more like their natural habitat and they already seem at home. bears can spend up to 18 hours a day foraging and he has never been able to do that and they have really powerful front claws, and for the first time just now, he was able to use those front claws and dig. happy ending for these four beautiful creatures and the charity really hope this can raise the profile of the species, people seeing them at the park will secure a better long—term future for the species overall. thank you, both, very much indeed. if you would like to see more on those stories, you can access them via the bbc iplayer. we go nationwide every weekday afternoon at 4:30pm here afternoon live. there‘s a warning that plans to build half a million homes

on green belt land will do little to help young people get on the property ladder. the campaign to protect rural england says people are being ‘sold a lie‘, with only around a quarter of homes built on greenfield sites last year categorised as ‘affordable‘. the government says last year saw the highest number of new homes built in a decade, and has denied a charge that it‘s ‘tearing up the countryside‘. tim muffett reports. the first green belts were designated in the 1950s, to stop towns and cities sprawling indefinitely. but it‘s claimed today that much of this protected land faces a bigger threat than ever. the campaign to protect rural england has been analysing planning applications. we‘re seeing an unprecedented level of housing planned for the green belt, we‘re seeing plans for 460,000 homes to be built in the next few years. we‘re absolutely for the right housing in the right place, but we don‘t think green belt is the right place. today‘s report claims that over 70% of housing built on green belt land

is unaffordable to those on average incomes. it calls for housing to be built on previously used land, or brownfield sites, instead. but with the government aiming to build 300,000 homes a year by the mid—2020s, some believe the greenbelts can‘t be avoided. the institute of economic affairs is a think tank that promotes free—market views. we've seen the green belt basically double in size over the last 40 years. if we are not willing to look at some of it which is fit for development, then we'll have a permanent housing crisis in britain, not a short to medium—term one. the government says the number of new homes built last year was the highest in a decade and that only 0.02% of green belt land was developed for housing. it says councils should only give planning permission in exceptional circumstances. tim muffett, bbc news. jamie robertson is here and in a moment, he will be telling

financial uncertainties, doing pretty well. europe‘s biggest bank. you must remember it is initially an asian bank, hong kong shanghai banking corporation. tilting at the beginning of the financial crisis, since the beginning of the century, to the united states, but that has changed and it is moving back towards its heartland, asia. that is the studio focus now. closing branches in the uk. talking about the uk, it says today in its results it has a brexit contingency plan with the no deal. it is prepared for that. it says it is cautiously optimistic about growth. it says it is not worried about trade war between the us and china, even though for china and the us, the two biggest markets for this

bank. on the other hand, that switch, that switch from one side of the world to the other is not com plete the world to the other is not co m plete yet the world to the other is not complete yet and investors not totally convinced it is working as well as it do. and then the us china trade war. we we re and then the us china trade war. we were talking about it earlier. which hsbc is right in the thick yes, we have had more very bellicose comments from the chinese today, calling president trump‘s strategy that of a streetfighter. president trump has tweeted back, saying america is winning this particular trade war. so it is all getting very hot under the collar. but let‘s face it, about $30 —— $30 billion, hot under the collar. but let‘s face it, about $30 -- $30 billion, $40 billion have been affected in good so far, the threatening more but it has not happened, words and a bit of action but not lots of action yet so we have a way to see how that develops. but it is a worrying scenario.

president trump, i mean, there is a lwa ys president trump, i mean, there is always uncertainty about how far he is going to go in imposing these. when he met the european leader, having threatens huge sanctions, he said, maybe we‘re not going to have sanctions after all. this is a negotiation different means. they are still negotiating a way, they are just putting action behind those negotiating words. so as they say, we are going to put another £200 billion worth of ta riffs another £200 billion worth of tariffs on those goods. if you don‘t start to negotiate and do something. china says the same. it is a high, high risk negotiation but it is still to go shooting in a way. and the pound. and the pound. a bad day, it started with mark carney‘s comments about the worries about brexit and it is falling against the dollar, which is very strong at the moment. but talk to james hughes. the pound, is this because of dollar strength. joining us now is james hughes, chief market analyst at axitrader. is there a serious reason why the

pound is falling? it isa pound is falling? it is a bit of both. when you look at last week and mark carney‘s comments, anything that is hawkish and points to more interest rate rises, that is usually positive news for the pound. what we got in this situation is that brexit is handing over everybody. the issue being that nobody knows what post—brexit britain looks like. so the feeling was that mark carney raised interest rates last week at the meeting just to be able to have something in the tank if the economy starts to turn around again and slow down because of brexit, then he has something to really arm himself with, to help the economy out of any problems. but there is the other side. there is there is the other side. there is the us dollar. and because of these trade wars and the discussions in the us and china and continued war of words, that is making investors look for that dollar—denominated debt and the biggest issue, the biggest area is the us dollar. if the us dollar is up, it drives the

other currencies down as well. hsbc is in the midst of this, it is brexit exposed, it is exposed to china heavily and wants to be more so, it is exposed to the us and is in the thick of it. but it seems to be fairly optimistic about everything. yes, i think there is almost a bit ofa yes, i think there is almost a bit of a split here. there is the fact the numbers have come out particular well, the fact that you‘re actually performing better like a lot of other european banks, they are posting some positive numbers as we have seen over this earnings season, but there is a cloud over them. they are very but there is a cloud over them. they are very exposed in terms of macro from being a uk bank. —— intends brexit. but the situation we have is they are moving in, they are changing their model and moving or going back to the asian markets. the asian market at the moment is a really scary area for any business because of these trade wars going on between the us and china. we don‘t

know how long that fight will go on, we don‘t know what the impact is going to be. the impact at the moment has been minimal, but for companies looking so far ahead, the uncertainty of brexit and the sort of thing is causing big issues. and a quick word on trade wars and where we are going with that, the markets concentrating on those today, but later during the week, we have big company results, i suppose this is a new reality of markets, we worry about trade wars at one point and because the next. the markets still go up. yes, absolutely. we almost got a welcome relief last week because we we re welcome relief last week because we were able to look at the interest—rate decisions from the fed and the bank of england and the jobs report from the us, so it is back to data we were looking at and now this week, it is back to reality and the war of words. looking at donald trump‘s twitter account and almost wondering where he will post his attention next. 0k, attention next. ok, thanks very much indeed.

trade wars, brexit uncertainty, how is it affecting the markets? no shortage of things to think about, you take the choice of which thing to worry about. the ftse has just got back into positive territory, it spent all today negative. that figure is wrong on a cac but it is pretty equal. the euro week today as is the pound, so not changed very much. it is not strong, the pound, just below 1.12, for the reasons we have been discussing. jamie, many thanks. that‘s it from your afternoon live team for today. next, the bbc news at five, with julian worricker. time for a look at the weather. here‘s ben rich. the heatwave is ending! good afternoon. for many of us, by the end of this week, the weather will have changed quite significantly. but we‘re starting off on the sort of note we‘ve become used to recently.

lots of warmth, lots of sunshine, particularly for southern and eastern areas. the further north and west you look across the uk, there‘s more in the way of cloud. you can see on the earlier satellite picture this stripe of cloud. quite a weak weather frontjust staggering its way a bit further south and east, bringing cloudy skies, a little bit of rain and a cooler feel across these north—west parts of the uk. further south and east, there is still a lot of heat to be had. 30, 31, 32 degrees across parts of south—east england through the rest of the afternoon. then we go through this evening and overnight, and it‘s going to be another fairly warm night down towards the south, the odd mist patch, but some clear spells as well. but our weather front still wriggling around across parts of wales, northern england, southern scotland, the odd spot of rain. behind that, some clear spells and a few showers, but a cooler, fresher feel. so we get into tomorrow, and this stripe of cloud is what remains of our weather front — only really dragging its heels across parts of northern england, parts of wales, into the south—west. not much rain left

on it by this stage. to the south—east of it, another sunny day, another hot day, temperatures again into the low—30s celsius. but further north and west, something cooler and fresher, into northern ireland and western scotland, with a few showers. talking of showers, as we go through tuesday evening, there isjust a chance that we will see some showers and thunderstorms clipping into south—east england and east anglia. so don‘t by surprised if you see a flash of lightning or hear a rumble of thunder. further west, a little bit of rain in the forecast as well, because we begin to bring some weather fronts in from the atlantic. but the key thing that these weather fronts will do by the time we get to wednesday is introduce much cooler fresher air, so temperatures well down to 24 degrees in london on wednesday. a few showers around, some sunshine as well, similar story on thursday, and then by friday, there is a chance that we bring some wet and windy weather towards the west — because have a look at this. we haven‘t seen this for quite some time. an area of low pressure, drifting in from the atlantic, bringing some outbreaks of rain, potentially some pretty strong wind gusts as well. this is going to feel very different.

it will feel something like autumn. so it looks like as we head towards the weekend, some wet and windy weather for a time, not all the time, and a much cooler feel. today at 5pm: at least 98 people have been killed and thousands of residents and tourists evacuated after the second earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok in a week. witnesses spoke of chaos and terror, with thousands of buildings damaged, as well as communication lines cut. it's it‘s getting dark now, there power, personal water. we are just great to hold out and see what happens tomorrow. we‘ll have the latest. the other main stories on bbc news at 5pm: england cricketer ben stokes ‘mocked two gay men‘ before a fight outside a nightclub in bristol last year, a court‘s heard. the us is reimposing sanctions on iran after its withdrawal from the iranian nuclear deal.
