this is bbc news. i'm these are the top stories developing at 11:00. iran's president condemns sanctions reimposed by the us overnight as ‘psychological warfare‘. rescuers search for survivors in a mosque on the island of lombok — following the powerful earthquake that killed almost 100 people. a northern california wildfire has been declared the largest in the state's history, as president trump blames environmental laws for its spread. and the heatwave has given plenty of opportunity for enjoying the outdoors, but what about the impact on our parks? concerns are raised over the rise of littering in public spaces as people make the most of the hot weather. and a warning to young men to be careful at the seaside — the rnli says they're more at risk of getting into trouble in the water good morning.

is tuesday the 7th of august. welcome to bbc newsroom live. iran's president hassan rouhani has hit out at the united states over its reinstatement of economic sanctions. mr rouhani described the measures, which came into effect overnight, as "psychological warfare" which aimed to "sow division among iranians". donald trump signed an executive order re—imposing sanctions following the us withdrawal from the 2015 iran nuclear deal earlier this year. the sanctions take aim at various sectors... they target the purchase or acquisition of us banknotes by iran's government iran's trade in gold and other precious metals materials such as aluminium, steel & coal — as well as software used in industry

the sanctions also take aim at iran's automotive sector. the uk, france and germany have unveiled plans to protect european firms doing business with iran despite the new sanctions. speaking to the today programme on radio 4 earlier, foreign minister alistair burt said the uk government will look out for those british companies... either company fears that legal action taken against it a bag and in response to american factions, then that company can be protected as far as european union legislation is consent. however, the practicalities of the united states saying they do not wish to have anything to do with anyone involved with iran is rather different. commercial companies will ta ke different. commercial companies will take their own decisions but there will be plenty of companies that can trade using european finance

mechanisms and won't be affected by the us. i wonder if they can look to the us. i wonder if they can look to the american government —— the british government to stand up to president trump. they can expect the united kingdom to do this. a good partnership between friends requires us partnership between friends requires us to take a stand when we think it is important to do so. in the last half an hour or so president trump has been tweeting on the subject. he says... that is donald trump in the last few minutes. joining me is former uk ambassador to iran, sir richard dalton — who's also president of the british—iranian chamber of commerce. thank you for being with us. where

does all this leave britain if we wa nt to does all this leave britain if we want to trade with iran? you have heard what president trump has been saying, anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business in the united states. that is quite a threat. yes, the british companies had been aware of the choice they had been aware of the choice they had to make and quite a number of them will choose america because their interests lie there. but it is very welcome to hear the words of the british minister responsible for the middle east and let us hope that those words are backed up with action. so far we have had nothing but a weak response from the british government. the boycott of banking of any transactions to do with iran undertaken by british banks against policy has been in place for several yea rs policy has been in place for several years and more determined efforts are needed to break that boycott and get some reality to mr dull his words. some people would say that

britain should be standing shoulder to shoulder with the united states and donald trump because iran is a dangerous regime and it is pursuing a nuclear weapons programme and it is also a threat in the region and it needs to be put in place. in my view, there are no good external actors in the middle east. the united states unconditional support dull in yemen is indeed it danger to the piece of the middle east and some of iran ‘s activities are also threatening. so all parties need to get together around the table and defuse these tensions rather than increasing them. as the british, french, german and european statement said, it is a matter of sticking to international agreements and protecting the games to the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons regime represented by that crucial 2015 agreement with iran. the risk

is that fire from working for a piece in the middle east, mr trump is deluding himself and racking up tension with iran, risking provocations on either side. we may be facing a slide towards another disastrous middle east conflict. what do you think will be the effects inside iran? we have seen an rest on the streets. do you think it will exacerbate that and pressed against the regime in iran? will exacerbate that and pressed against the regime in iran7m will exacerbate that and pressed against the regime in iran? it may do, but the capabilities of the arena in reaching to repress dissent and control protest is still very strong. there will be an effect of these oppressive measures by the united states of uniting some opinion in iran behind the government. there will be a reduction in economic growth. it is hypocritical of the united states to

say that they are on the side of the iranian people they are not impoverishing them and making their economic situation worse. it is not going to trouble the regime but it is going to increase the daily living problems of a great many iranians. thank you very much for being with us. he is the former uk ambassador to iran. thank you very much for your time. the united kingdom has experienced a slowdown in life expectancy. it says the change is more pronounced by women than men. for more details on this, iam women than men. for more details on this, i am joined women than men. for more details on this, iamjoined by women than men. for more details on this, i am joined by our health editor. can you talk us through these figures? life expectancy going back over the years, over the decades, it improved steadily because medical science was getting

better, infectious diseases were being tackled more effectively. heart disease, death rates from that we re heart disease, death rates from that were coming down. so life expectancy went up. now the office for national statistics in its report today says that happened across the uk up until about 2011, but since then, there has been a slowdown on the increase. i expect it is going up but more slowly. but the uk has experienced one of the biggest slowdowns in that rate of growth and in some senses, it depends whether you measure it from birth or the age of 65, the uk life expectancy has stalled. it raises questions about what is going on here. relative to the international group of countries in the report. what are the reasons for that slowdown in? is it the health service? is it our diets? is a lack

of exercise? some experts have been saying increasingly that government policy must have something to do with it. there is a link to austerity, cuts in social care in england. that is strongly denied by ministers who say you cannot prove that kind of causation. it is a sophisticated picture, obesity, dementia, all these pictures affect every reading economy. but there is an increasing focus on what is going on here and some academics are causing for an enquiry on this. get expert in front of a select committee to test the evidence because the argue that this cannot because the argue that this cannot be ignored any more. it is possibly something significant happening in the uk which differs from many other leading economists. the us, is doing worse than the uk in the slowdown. with different economic policies, but there are many other countries doing better and that raises questions. it will raise alarm that

we are loyal on the league table. yes, there has been alex —— assumption that life expectancy will keep rising, advances in medical science, why is that slowdown? what is really going on? in countries like japan where there was extolling a little while back, they have never seen an increase in the growth of life expectancy and the scandinavian countries as well. many thanks. our health editor. a seven—year—old boy has been found dead in a house fire in deptford in south—east london. london fire brigade say they're treating the fire as suspicious. jo—wilfried jumped from first floor of the property in early this morning. the injuries are not thought to be life—threatening. rescue workers on the indonesian island of lombok are carrying out a desperate search for survivors of the powerful earthquake, which has killed almost 100 people. the foreign office says it has heard from a number of uk holiday—makers trying to flee the devastation. keith doyle reports. the earthquake which struck on

sunday has caused widespread destruction and left many dead and injured. this was the moment it struck. measuring 6.9 which was strong enough to destroy 20,000 homes in the north of the island. strong enough to destroy 20,000 homes in the north of the islandm was utterly terrifying. we just literally work sleeping off the jet lag when the whole room, the ceiling collapsed, the floor cracked beneath us. the shower room smashed on the floor. we head under a table in the room and held on for dear life. this was the second earthquake in just one week. it was five times more

powerful and was followed by 100 strong after—shocks. power and communication minds had been cut to many parts where the authorities say as many as 80% of the buildings have been damaged. witnesses spoke of chaos and reported looting. makeshift after but —— hospitals had been set up to treat the injured. at the airport, careers we did for flights to take them home. paradise holidays cut short. extra flights have been put british foreign office has advised against travelling to the affected area and says it is providing assistance to british nationals who have been in contact by telephone or social media. we can show you these live pictures. a makeshift camp has been set up for those who have been displaced following the earthquakes there in the last few days. as the worst thing, the death toll topping 100.

rescuers finding people under wrecked buildings. thousands are homeless in the worst affected areas. many are waiting for help and aid to arrive. a woman was pulled alive from the rubble of one collapsed grocery store in the north near the epicentre of that earthquake which was nearly seven in magnitude. that is the latest as people wait in that shelter for more aid to arrive. two wildfires that merged into one blaze in northern california has swiftly become the largest fire in the state's recorded history. it has now burned through 284—thousand acres, almost the size of los angeles. two people have died. cbs correspondent laura podesta reports. a northern california wildfire has exploded to become the largest the state ‘s history. the mendocino complex

north of san francisco is being fuelled by hot and windy weather and dry vegetation. if anything over the next couple of days, this is bad news, the heat dome is actually going to expand and conditions will get hotter and drier. the fire has already destroyed more than 150 structures and threatens thousands more. officials don't expect to have it fully contained until next week. a record 111,000 firefighters are battling over a dozen fires throughout california. up we go. in the southern part of the state, hikers in cleveland national park were rescued after a fast—moving fire erupted on monday. 0ne resident had to run for his life. we saw a little smoke, we'd better go down there, so we rushed down there in the car and you get to the helicopter pad and the fire is already, flames out across the road, we couldn't pass. two firefighters were treated for heat exhaustion. it is unsafe and we cannot reopen the valley. parts of the national park

are closed after high winds pushed the fire past containment lines over the weekend. we know this is disappointing and a challenging time for our visitors that have planned trips, sometimes years in advance. sacramento health officials are advising residents to avoid outdoor activities for the entire week because the smoke is so thick. earth is in danger of tipping into a permanent ‘hothouse' state, according to a new report into climate change. scientists have warned that if global temperatures rise by more than 2 degrees celsius, extreme temperatures and rising sea levels could be irreversible — and that current plans to cut carbon emissions may not be enough to stop it. joining me now is the former government chief scientific adviser and special representative for climate change , sir david king. thank you very much for being with

us. what do you make of this warning? it sounds extremely alarming. we are in a very alarming situation. i think that we have lifted precariously late for global action to manage the problem at this stage. it is the greatest challenge in human history. we havejust heard reports from california which underline how dependent we are on our ecosystems. we have been talking since 1979 in the international sphere about managing this problem and at this stage, we really are coming at it too late. i do think that we could manage the level of the problem but it means that we, humanity, we will have two pool our resources to preserve the environment on which we all depend. it is our last chance to prove that

homo sapiens was the right name to give our species. we are so far really endangering not only our future, but the future of other species as well. let me just put it very starkly. i think we've got over the next ten years, easy areas of action plans to put in place to manage this problem. and if we don't manage this problem. and if we don't manage that, then we have transformed the future of the next 10,000 plus years. what do i mean by action plan? first and foremost, we really have two stop using fossil fuels as quickly as we can. what that means is facing fossil fuel usage right out. i'm not saying we have to do it by tomorrow, we have to do it by 2035. we need to phase them right out of our usage system. we need to... that means, for

example, no longer using petrol or diesel in the ground transport systems, but it also means that we have two moved well beyond that. we have two moved well beyond that. we have raised greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere from the preindustrial period, 270 parts per million tojust over 400 preindustrial period, 270 parts per million to just over 400 parts per million to just over 400 parts per million today. a safe level is below 350 ppm. the implication is we have to make every effort to reduce carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. we need to develop all the technology that is needed to ta ke the technology that is needed to take billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to give ourselves a chance. i can give you one more a really important factor. it is what is happening in the arctic circle region. 0ver

it is what is happening in the arctic circle region. over the last 15 years we have seen the rapid loss of the ice sheet over the arctic. now ships in the arctic winter can sail across the arcticjust breaking through the thin layer of ice. what this means is the arctic ocean is soaking up sunlight far more rapidly thanit soaking up sunlight far more rapidly than it could ever have done with layers of ice on it before. the arctic region is heating up at three to four times the rate of the rest of the planet. which is disturbing the entire global weather system. what we are seeing in europe today and in the united states and california and in australia, all of these changes are very much dependent on what is happening in the arctic region. but worse than this, right in that arctic region is greenland. if all the ice on greenland. if all the ice on greenland melts, global sea levels go greenland melts, global sea levels 9° up greenland melts, global sea levels 9° up by greenland melts, global sea levels go up by seven metres. seven metres,

that means every coastline city in the world will be an undated with water. these are challenges that are with us today. these are challenges we have to meet and the real question is whether we are going to realise that it will need people from every nation to pool resources to manage to preserve this environment on which we so heavily depend. thank you so much for being with us. president trump calls for sanctions on iran and he wants other countries from doing business with iran. the iranians say it is psychological warfare. growth in life expectancy has

stalled in the uk. searching for survivors after a powerful earthquake killed almost a hundred people. and in sports, he has made an offer to buy the rest of the club. if the other big shareholder is willing to sell. the arsenal supporters trust has described today as a dreadful day for the club. burnley have signed up for manchester city on a two year deal. he had been seeking a permanent move after pep guardiola said he had no future at the club. and in the european championships, on the hunt for another medal. he was back in the swimming pool this morning with a 50 metres breaststroke which he won to take on through to the semifinals along with his team—mate ross murdock. i will

be back with more on those stories that have passed the 11. surrey police have apologised for serious failings in their latest investigation into the dj jonathan king. the case against king collapsed injune and prosecutors have announced they won't seek a retrial over alleged historical sex offences. king denied 23 serious sexual assault charges against teenage boys, alleged to have taken place between 1970 and 1988. surrey‘s police and crime commissioner, david munro, has ordered a review of the investigation. we'll be speaking to him just after 11:30. theresa may will discuss brexit with the scottish first minister nicola sturgeon today, during a visit to the edinburgh festivals. the snp leader has called on mrs may to rule out a no—deal brexit, and what she calls a blind brexit — where the future trading relationship hasn't been agreed. we can go live now to our correspondent, glenn campbell — who is at the edinburgh festival.

let this put into context. i am standing outside the first minister official residence in edinburgh. elsewhere in the city she will meet with the prime minister theresa may a little later to discuss brexit. the prime minister is having to work really ha rd on the prime minister is having to work really hard on this. she is probably juggfing really hard on this. she is probably juggling harder than a street performer at the edinburgh fringe festival in pursuit of our goals on brexit. the blueprint that was agreed by cabinet at chequers last month has already been crit criticised by the eu side with the eu chief negotiator ruling out the uk collecting customs receipts on behalf of the european union. although they have seemed willing to give ground on other areas. the uk government is then proceeding direct talks with the european union

leaders. that is why the prime minister cut short her a walking holiday to speak with the french president last week. this is her first appearance in the uk since the stocks. it is also her first appearance since the trade secretary suggested the chances of a no—deal brexit. now around 60% because of what he called the european union intransigence. here in scotland, nicola sturgeon once the prime minister to rule out a no—deal brexit. and to roll out what she is describing as a blind brexit. —— and to rule out a blind brexit. and enter a transition period but without there being an agreement on the broad shape of the future of trading relations. nicola sturgeon thinks that and in no deal outcome would be economically damaging and she wants those ruled out. the prime

minister is probably not in a position to give guarantees, she is signing an agreement with the scottish government to bring new investment to edinburgh and the surrounding area. she is using this city deal as an example of what she says of her commitment to share economic prosperity around the uk as the uk leave the european union. thank you very much indeed. there are reports that the uk is ready to ask moscow to extradite two men it suspects of carrying out a nerve agent attack on a former russian spy. sergei skripal and his daughter yulia, were found unconscious on a public bench in salisbury in march. let's speak to our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford. he can tell us more. it seems like they think they know the identities of who carried out this attack. the guardian newspaper is saying that

the crown prosecution service are imminently about to serve an extradition request the two suspects from russia in connection with the initial poisoning of this man and the death and illness of the woman and her partner. i think it goes too far. in the absence of any real official confirmation from any sources, it has got to a point where it is apparent that two people have been identified from cctv footage using facial recognition software, looking passenger lists as being the likely people responsible for the poisoning. it is not clear to me that the uk have actually worked out there are definite identities. at this stage. but clearly, if we have orare this stage. but clearly, if we have or are worthy to get to that stage, then the question would happen. would you go through an extradition process ? would you go through an extradition process? we know from the case that the russians were saying that it

wasn't going to happen. they cannot extradite russian citizens. he became a member of the russian parliament. the only restrictions on those two suspects where that they cannot leave russia because they will be arrested under an international arrest warrant. so the question in this case is, do you submitan question in this case is, do you submit an extradition request to russia just to be told no? at least you can see you have named the two people who are responsible for it. it will make relations with russia at worst, but relations with russia are atan at worst, but relations with russia are at an all—time low since the former soviet union. 0r are at an all—time low since the former soviet union. or do you not go through that process, does not play your cards, and then leave the people who are responsible worried that if they did leave russia they might be picked up but not know, because not know when britain has actually identified them or not, or do you go through the process where you have a public inquiry, you lay

out the police evidence and you explain why it is that you think those two people are responsible without there being a trial. that is the discussion that is going on in whitehall at the moment. what is the correct path to follow? i don't think there will be announced in an announcement this week that there will be an extradition request. and you much. last year, 99 men died off our coast compared to just ten women. younger men are more likely to take risks. the rnli is at newquay for us this morning. thank you for being with us. tell us a bit more about this warning and why young men are being singled out in particular. once we look at the events that happened last year and over the past five yea rs, last year and over the past five yea rs , we last year and over the past five years, we find there is a massive

trent, at least 90% of those people who lose their lives around the coastline are men, mostly young men aged between 16 and 35 years old. so if you start looking into that and the reasons behind it, you'll find that men are much more adventurous, they are more likely to take part in risky activity. but also the less likely to make a plan and to talk about safety amongst their friends. and looking out for their mates. so this is perhaps part of the reason why we are seeing these deaths around our cause. we are urging now as of this campaign for young men in particular to think about safety when they head to the coast, to think about their friends, what is going to happen if the act a few drinks and go for a walk, where has their mate gone? look after the group and make sure you all stick together. and generally, there must be more people than ever on our coastlines, on our beaches because of this sustained period of hot

weather that we are having. that must mean that you guys in the rnli are very busy and that the dangers are very busy and that the dangers are raised in a sense because there are raised in a sense because there are more people on the beaches. we have had a really busy summer. lots of people are on this speech today. lots of people enjoying themselves and having a great time on the coast. we see far too often how quickly that can become a tragedy. we are urging for people to think about when you come to the coast, think about the plan of what is going to happen, what if? what if things go wrong? do you have a means of calling for help? do you have a motherfor the? 0r of calling for help? do you have a motherfor the? or a of calling for help? do you have a mother for the? or a radio? of calling for help? do you have a motherforthe? 0ra radio? check the tidy towns. do you know if you walk around a headline you are going to come back? have you told people where you are going? do you have a plan for when to turn back? things like that. so we have seen a really

busy time. fortunately, most people just have a really great day out, like the people behind us having a great day. but for many others, and reoffending, mostly men, that can turn into tragedy very quickly so we urge you tojust turn into tragedy very quickly so we urge you to just think about your day, make that plan, and make sure you get home safely good advice. thank you. thank you much indeed forjoining us. they wail has been rescued by dozens of volu nteers wail has been rescued by dozens of volunteers after becoming stranded near cantering in mexico. the 18 metre sender whale became beached in the caribbean prompting people to ta ke the caribbean prompting people to take boats into the sea to try and free edge. the rescuers then towed the whale into deeper waters i will get to swim away. well, we've seen

and it looks like there could be a takeover. the american owner who already owns 60% of the club says he is close to a ballot which values the club at £1.8 billion. sport correspondentjoined us. let's explain more about this. the site continues but how likely is it that the buyout will happen? this has looked inevitable for some time since stan kroenke became the majority shareholder building his sta ke a re majority shareholder building his stake are and only alisher usmanov stood on his way. now it looks like he has an irrevocable undertaking from the alisher usmanov‘s company do extend the offer as soon as possible. it goes into an element of detail saying that shareholders will be entitled to receive around £29,000 per share. the deal would

involve a £557 million alone which will raise some eyebrows. stan kroenke says this will not be leveraged against arsenal so this is happening and we should see the outcome of it in due course. there will be many questions to calm in where stan kroenke will take arsenal going on because by taking the club private, no longer is there accountability, scrutiny, general meetings, and can be managed from america so this is a consenting time for arsenal. fans have had their say on social media. what is being set? the unknown is the key thing. they wa nt the unknown is the key thing. they want a year from stan the unknown is the key thing. they want a yearfrom stan kroenke. no interviews so far. no word from the club. the supporters trust have released a strongly worded statement saying this is a dreadful day for arsenal football club owner saying there are wholly against this takeover, pointing out the worst thing about it is that shareholders will be forced, compelled to share

sta n will be forced, compelled to share stan kroenke sell their shares which are now held for sentimental value and you hold the club account. they are alarmed that a loan is being used to complete the deal as we need to hear more from arsenal but the timing is not great. just a few days before the start of the new season. thank you. same with football and burnley have signed goalkeeperjoe hart from manchester city. joe hart have been seeking a permanent move after pep guardiola said he had no first—team future at the club. joe hart was dropped by england any summer but has spent the past two seasons loaned out to clubs but joins burnley for an undisclosed fee ona joins burnley for an undisclosed fee on a two year deal. sabrina williams has posted a lengthy statement on social media revealing the reasons yet decided to take another break from tennis. since returning to the tall, she had to pasta like dictation by reaching the final wimbledon this year butjust last

what do you make about the real position of sanctions by the united states ? position of sanctions by the united states? thank you. just a minor correction, i'm not at regent university any more, i'm a managing director based in hamburg. thanks for making that clear. president trump frequently have argued that this deal that was reached by a previous initiation was a bad deal as he thinks it is not going to stop iran from trying to obtain nuclear military capacity. he wanted to withdraw from this deal and bring negotiations back on the table to bring continuity. this new deal, where the negotiation starts, will bea where the negotiation starts, will be a truly complex. the previous deal had involving parties in the

negotiation and they wanted to isolate nuclear fire and that was the main challenge that was causing the main challenge that was causing the international community order powers. this time, president trump wa nts to powers. this time, president trump wants to solve all the problems that iran orthe wants to solve all the problems that iran or the blood found mack loss of sound the pressure that this is putting on the pressure that this is putting on the economy is immense. even before the economy is immense. even before the start... crucial part of the sanctions which was later last night ina random sanctions which was later last night in a random time. the iranian economy started to face serious problems and the biggest sign of those problems and biggest impact of those problems and biggest impact of those problems and biggest impact of those problems was that quite fast and dramatic decline of the national currency, with iran having a historical low against the us dollar. because of this was

signalling an impact that the markets saw through talks from previous deals and they be in possession of sanctions, and once these are in practice, they will be even more serious, the consequences for the iranian economy. series of letters for the economy and we have seen an rest on the streets of tehran. well that exacerbates the u nrest tehran. well that exacerbates the unrest and violence under the obscene on the streets? and to what extent will that harm the regime in iran? the iranian political party recently spoke about hidden purpose and hidden agenda of the us administration which was to try to create an environment in which a regime change will be the likeliest scenario. president trump had always denied that the us administration

that black president trump and the us administration denied this and said the iran government could work with them, they would not support a regime change. what we've seen over the past few weeks is that the economic pressure is making people literally frustrated and encouraging people to organise a peaceful rally, as it started with, but they ended in violence and putting things on fire, people being shot in some other parts of the country. demonstrations are unlikely to just died hours if they ever let pressure is going to increase. it will continue with this type of response, like iran always has but it seems that ordinarily iran ian city and —— iranian citizens that are put up

with economic pressure for a long time have now reached a point that they really can't cope with the pressure and they are demanding quite serious changes from the government. the government is now out of options. unless they are willing to change their behaviour across the region and sits down and see out negotiations to reach some sort of agreement with the international community, specifically the united states, it is unlikely that they will be able to cope with the economic pressure. thank you for your time. as we've been hearing earlier, surrey police have admitted serious failings in the investigation into the dj john thinking. —— as we've been hearing, surrey police have admitted serious failings in their investigation into dj jonathan king who had denied 23 serious sexual assault charges against teenage boys. joining me now is police

and crime commissioner for surrey, david munro. thank you are much being with us. what do you make of the surrey police operation in this case? i'm afraid there are serious flaws in the police process which i think is why the trial collapsed. i'm very concerned about that and so, together with surrey police, i'm commissioning an urgent independent review to find out in detail what went wrong. and how we can put it right. notjust went wrong. and how we can put it right. not just for this trial went wrong. and how we can put it right. notjust for this trial but for any other issues that people these are dealing with. i'm very concerned and we need to take urgent action. what kind of falls? give me some detail. just broadly speaking, what went wrong? the issue of

disclosure was fundamental, dd defends have the same information as the prosecution? it was seen that in hindsight, there was inadequate contact with complainants, there was a failure to disclose some earlier reports which were material to the evidence and they fell to disclose some of the medical evidence. just getting those as —— giving those as an example. it was a very competitive process of thousands of documents, years of work and that is why i want is independent review really do with the matters in detail to what actually happened but there is no doubt about it that, at the end, we now have a trial which has collapsed, we have complainants and defendants now in limbo, which shouldn't have happened and that is why it is so serious. we have seen failure on this issue of disclosure

involving other sorts of alleged crimes, rain cases for example, other police forces. —— rape cases for example. muller it is a difficult issue. 0ne for example. muller it is a difficult issue. one has to have some sympathy with very hard—pressed police officers who are looking through tens of thousands of phone calls, facebook messages and so on. we're moving into another age here but we've got to keep up with that and we've got to improve our procedures. i am confident nationally and in surrey that we have improved a lot and we have got disclosure broadly under control but i have to say this latest issue i like the leg find very concerning. -- i find like the leg find very concerning. —— ifind very like the leg find very concerning. —— i find very concerning. like the leg find very concerning. -- i find very concerning. thank you for talking to us. bank of your time. —— thank you your time.

(pres) president trump has described the sanctions he‘s reimposed on iran as "the most biting ever" and warned other countries from doing business with tehran. it follows the us wothdrawal form the 2015 iran nuclear deal earlier this year. iran‘s president hassan rouhani has condemned the united states , calling the measures "psychological warfare" . the sanctions take aim at various sectors... (pres) he ran his trade in gold and other precious metals as well as software used in industry. the sanctions also ta ke used in industry. the sanctions also take aim at a rant automotive sector. the uk and germany have unveiled plans to protect them doing business with iran despite the sanctions. speaking to the today programme the foreign minister said

that the uk government will look after those british companies. ifa look after those british companies. if a company fears legal action taken against them by an entity in response to american sanctions, then that company can be protected as far as the european union legislation is concerned. however, the practicalities of the united states saying they do not wish to have anything to do with anyone who is involved in iran is rather different. commercial companies will continue to make their own decisions. but there will be plenty of companies who can treat using european financial mechanisms who will not be affected by american conditions and want to be affected... i wonder if we can look to the british government to stand up to the british government to stand up to president trumper. as far as a disagreement with donald trump on this is concerned, they can expect the uk to do this. the partnership is real, but a good partnership between friends requires us to take a stance when we think it is important to do so. that was the

foreign office minister speaking earlier today. well, this was the tweet from president trump a little earlier os "the iran sanctions have officially been cast. these are the most biting sanctions ever imposed, and in november they ratchet up to yet another level. anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business with the united states. i am asking for world peace, nothing less!" responding to those comments by president trump is former uk ambassador to iran, sir richard dalton, who‘s also president of the british—iranian chamber of commerce british companies have been aware of the choice they had to make and a good deal of them will choose america because that is where the interest lies. but it is very welcome to hear the words of the british minister responsible for the middle east and let‘s hope that those words are backed up with action. so far, we have had nothing but a weak response from the british government. the boy kept banking of

any transaction to do with iran against british government policy has been in place now for several yea rs. has been in place now for several years. more determined efforts are needed to break that boycott and give some reality to these words. some people would say that britain should be standing shoulder to shoulder with the united states on this, with donald trump, because iran isa this, with donald trump, because iran is a dangerous regime, it is pursuing a nuclear weapons programme, it is also a parade in the region and it needs to be put in place. in my view, there are no good external actors in the middle east. so all parties need to get together round the table and defuse the tension is relevant increasing them. as the british, french, german and european statement said, it is a matter of sticking to international agreements and protecting the games to the nonproliferation of nuclear

weapons regime represented by that crucial 2015 agreement with iran. the risk is that far from working for peace in the middle east, mr trump is deluding himself and by ratcheting up tension with iran and risking provocations on either side, we may be facing a slide towards a further disastrous middle east conflict. what do you think will be the effects inside iran itself? we have seen quite a lot of unrest in iran, on the streets, do you think it will exacerbate that unrest against the regime in iran? it will exacerbate that unrest against the regime in iran7m it will exacerbate that unrest against the regime in iran? it may do, but the capabilities of the iranian regime to repress dissent and control protest is still very strong. moreover, there will be an effect of these oppressive measures by the united states of uniting some opinion in iran behind the government. there will be a

reduction in economic growth, it is entirely hypocritical of the united states to say that they are on the side of the iranian people, they are not impoverishing them or making their economic situation even worse. it is most unlikely to topple the regime, but is likely to increase the daily living problems of a great many iranians. that was the former british ambassador to iran. let‘s speak to amir paivar — he‘s the business correspondent for bbc persian tv. what has been the iranian reaction to the repositioning of sanctions on iran? the iraq -- the reaction is a mixture of defiance and do now. they say that these actions will strengthen the economy because there will be more self—reliant. there will be more self—reliant. there will be more self—reliant. there will be a dash towards manufacturing machinery which we want to be able to import. we will manufacture them

locally. past experience shows that despite such a show of defiance, what it does is it kills industries when you can‘t import raw material, technology and know—how you need. although in some limited areas, there might be an effort and an attempt to do exactly what they say. also, denial becomes... via reigning president last night— even touched the fact that the extent of the dissatisfaction, the protests on the streets, and he said although the economy will take a hit, we will survive. we have seen those protests on the street. how much of a threat added to the resume and how likely are these sanctions to make those protests, that social unrest in iran even worse and that being a threat to resume? what we have seen so far in the past, especially in the past three orfour months

in the past, especially in the past three or four months was the anticipation of the sanctions that officially and practically take effect as of today. what they mean, this round of sanctions, iran will be cut from being able to transact in us dollars. nobody will sell iran gold and us dollars in cash and called out alternative ways that iran is used to continue trading while the banking faction hit it. it is basically tightening the noose around the iranian economy which in turn will make livelihood of ordinary iranians difficult and probably trigger even more protests. tightening the noose, as you put it, for all the bluster from the tightening the noose, as you put it, for all the blusterfrom the regime, will they be alarmed by these new sanctions? they must be, and i think they are. last time, we saw the same kind of reaction but immediately in 2013 the iranians went back to negotiating. their nuclear deal.

that is what the us administration hopes to gain this time round, except that they think that the iranian economy is even more vulnerable and fragile came here to 2013 and they think they will bring the sanctions even more... in more depth except that the european union and asian countries are not on board with the sanctions this time round. we will see how it all plays out. from bbc persian tv, thank you very much for being with us. a study of 20 countries has found the uk experienced one of the largest slow—downs in improvements to life expectancy between 2011 and 2016. the office for national statistics said the change was more pronounced for women than men. our health editor hugh pym told me that life expectancy in the uk had been increasing steadily until 2011. now what the office for national statistics is saying in its report

today is that happened across most leading economies, including the uk up until about 2011 at an increasing pace, but since 2011 there has been a slowdown on the increase. life expectancy is still going up, but at a slower rate. but in the uk, it has experienced one of the biggest slowdowns in that rate of growth. and in some senses, it depends whether you measure it from birth or the age of 65, the uk‘s life expectancy has stalled so it does raise a lot of big questions about what is going on here, certainly relative to this international group of countries in this report. sir michael marmot, from university college london joins me now from liguria in italy he is the director of the institute of health equity which assesses inequalities in health. how worried should we be about this apparent

slowdown in terms of life expectancy? i think we should be very worried. in general, most of the discussions about health in britain have been discussions about health care, about the nhs, and declared that it should be. but this isa declared that it should be. but this is a discussion about the health of the population. we should be taking that as seriously as we should be the discussions about the health ca re system. the discussions about the health care system. given, as you have said, given that for 19 years, life expectancy was in the most recent five years, it is when you‘re in three for men, when you‘re in for for women. last year, we reported that that rate had fallen by half. the latest figures show that the slowdown is more dramatic. it has pretty well flattened out for women

and for me and it is about one year every 13 years, not one year in three. and then the question was, it has got to slow down sometime. maybe we have reached peak life expectancy. that is why we looked across europe. the latest figures, not only across europe but the united states as well, among european countries, we see a slowdown in life expectancy in the recent five—year period but the slowdown is most in britain. and it is only the eu is that if lower than us. we should be very worried. when we saw those figures last year, our future, what we had seen in the usa isa future, what we had seen in the usa is a rise in mortality in middle age, non—hispanic white mane and the biggest cause of that rise was due

to drugs and alcohol, suicide and alcoholic liver disease. and you look at those qualities and you see, this is a group of people in despair. killing themselves with poisoning suicide and alcohol. a group of people in despair. inside the latest figures is a rise in mortality in younger people under the age of 55. i look at that and see how we really going the way of the usa? if you don‘t invest in social welfare, if you don‘t invest in education, if you don‘t invest in social care for older people, this is the sort of thing that can happen. thank you very much for joining us from italy. the headlines on bbc news... six men who used speed boats

has shocked the experienced investigators who worked on the case. they said the severity of what happened to this little boy makes this one of the worst cases germany has ever seen. the crimes took place over a two—year period. the boy is now ten years old but he would have been around seven or eight years old at the time. he was raped and abused in his own home by his own mother and her boyfriend. but the pair also sold him on the dark knight to strangers for six jew. many of those attacks were filmed and distributed on the dark net. it was a horrible ordeal for this boy. it has really shocked germany because the mother ‘s boyfriend was known to the authorities as a convicted paedophile who had been banned from having any contact with

children and yet he was able to live in the family home when the boy and the boy ‘s mother where much of this abuse took place. real concern is also about the way the authorities handled this. the mother was interviewed months before the arrest but they did not actually talk to the boy himself. a lot of feelings that need to be thought through and may be reviewed. absolutely. a lot of questions to be answered. i think thatis of questions to be answered. i think that is why this case is so horrifying for germany. the severity of the abuse that was perpetuated, six other men had beenjailed for their part in the abuse, which also involved a three—year—old girl too. pa rt involved a three—year—old girl too. part of the charges against the mother and her boyfriend involved a little girl who was known to the family. so not just little girl who was known to the family. so notjust the widespread nature and severity of what was done to these children but as you see, the response of the authorities who had concerns about the security of

this little boy. they had interviewed the mother. as you see, no one thought to ask the little boy what he thought about his situation. had those questions being asked, perhaps he might have been spared. some of the ordeal. the boy ‘s mother has been sentenced to 12 and a half years in prison. the boyfriend, the convicted paedophile, has been given a 12 yearjail sentence but the court says he will be detained after that and tell they are certain that he is no longer a risk to the public and of course to the children. these are a heftyjail sentences by german standards. although, of course, as many people who are acquainted with this case will no doubt find themselves feeling perhaps not really long enough given the ordeal that this child went through. he is now in foster ca re. we child went through. he is now in foster care. we don‘t know anything about how he is. one can only imagine howa about how he is. one can only imagine how a small child recovers from such her horrendous series of

attacks. thank you very much indeed. rescue workers on the indonesian island of lombok are carrying out a desperate search for survivors of the powerful earthquake, which has killed almost 100 people. the foreign office says it has heard from a number of uk holiday—makers trying to flee the devastation. keith doyle reports. thousands of tourists on the beach trying to get away to safety. the earthquake which struck on sunday has caused widespread destruction and left many dead and injured. this was the moment it struck. it measured 6.9, which were strong enough to destroy 20,000 homes on the north of the island. it was utterly terrifying. you could just

our latest headlines... six men who used speed boats to bring albanian migrants into kent from france have been found guilty of conspiracy to breach uk immigration laws. two other men were found not guilty. president trump calls sanctions reimposed on iran "the most biting ever" and warns other countries from doing business with tehran. the iranian government brands them ‘psychological warfare‘. growth in life expectancy has stalled in the uk — it‘s one of the biggest slowdowns among the world‘s leading economies — raising questions about government policy and health. rescuers pull survivors from the rubble in lombok — two days after the powerful earthquake hit the indonesian island claiming almost 100 lives. a seven—year—old boy who died in a suspected arson attack in south—east london has been named as joel uhrie. two women who jumped from the first

floor of the house survived. also coming up... teenagers in scotland receive their exam results. we‘ll be hearing how students at a school in cumbernauld got on. president trump has reimposed sanctions on iran, following his decision to withdraw from the international agreement, designed to curb tehran‘s nuclear programme. the sancions will prevent iran from using us dollars and will ban the trade in gold, metals and iranian—made cars. the foreign ministers of european countries that signed the 2015 deal say they deeply regret america s action. our diplomatic correspondent, paul adams explains. president trump has always made clear he hates the iran nuclear deal. the fact is this was a horrible one—sided deal that should never, ever have been made.

when he pulled out it of three months ago, he said iran would suffer. we will be instituting a level of economic sanctions. any nation that helps iran in its quest to nuclear weapons could be strongly sanctioned by the united states. iran will no longer be able to buy american dollars, it won‘t be able to trade in gold, aluminium and steel are also on the list, as is the country‘s currency. in three months‘ time, there will be more sanctions. iran‘s oil industry, shipping and insurance and the central bank. iranians are very frustrated and angry, there are protests morphing around the country. this has been ongoing since december and january and the government has very limited tools to really protect itself from the domestic

instability. they can always crackdown. they are in trouble. this is going to be a tough period to them. this is precisely what mr trump wants. he says the nuclear deal did little to curb iranian behaviour around the middle east. its support for militant in lebanon and gaza, its involvement in the wars in yemen and syria. russia and china are desperate to keep the deal alive. they think it‘s the best way to stop iran from developing nuclear weapons but what can they do? there is very little that the europeans can do to save thejcpoa so the government‘s standing together in solidarity but what they can‘t do is compel international companies to maintain their presence and visibility in iran. many european and international companies are withdrawing to protect

themselves from us sanctions. mr trump thinks iran will come back to the negotiating table. i have a feeling they will be talking to us soon. but lately all we‘ve had is a lot of heated rhetoric on both sides. if donald trump is trying to change iranian behaviour, it‘s not happened yet. a report released today is warning that the world is at risk of tipping into extremely dangerous levels of climate change which could make some areas uninhabitable. the study comes amid a record—breaking summer heatwave here in the uk and massive wildfires in many parts of the world. scientists say what we do in the next 10 to 20 years will determine whether our planet remains hospitable to human life or slides down an irreversible path to hothouse earth conditions.

earlier i spoke to sir david king — former chief scientific adviser to the uk government — who told me we need to act now before its too late. let mejust let me just putted very starkly. i think we‘ve got, over the ten years, a series of actions planned to put in place to manage this problem and if we don‘t manage that, then we have transformed the future of the next 10,000 plus years. what i mean by action plan? first and foremost, we really have too stop using fossil fuels as quickly as they can and what that means is facing fossil fuel usage right al. i‘m not saying we have to do it by tomorrow, we have to do it by 2035. we need to face fossil fuels right out of an usage system. that means, for

example, no longer using petrol or diesel in ground transport systems but it also means that we have two moved well beyond that. we have raised greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere from the preindustrial period to 400 parts per million today. they really safe level is below 350 ppm. the implication is we have to make every effort to reduce carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. that means we need to develop polly peck —— delete all the —— develop polly peck technology needed to give ourselves a chance. ifi needed to give ourselves a chance. if i can give you one important fa ct, if i can give you one important fact, it is what is happening in the arctic circle region. in the last 15

yea rs, arctic circle region. in the last 15 years, we‘ve saw a rapid loss of the eyes sheet over the arctic. now ships in the arctic winter can sail across the arctic, breaking through the thin layer of ice. what this means is the arctic ocean is soaking up means is the arctic ocean is soaking up sunlight far, far more rapidly thanit up sunlight far, far more rapidly than it could ever have done with layers of ice on it before. the arctic region is heating up at 3—4 times the rate of the rest of the planet which is disturbing the entire global weather system. what we are seeing in europe today and in the united states in california, in australia, all these changes are very much dependent on what is happening in the arctic. less than this, in the arctic region like in queensland, if all the ice in queensland, if all the ice in queensland melts, sea levels go up by seven metres. —— in queensland.

that means they will be inundated by water. these are challenges with us to day. these are challenges we have two meat and the real question is whether we will realise that it will need people in every nation to pool resources ca n need people in every nation to pool resources can manage to preserve this environment on which we are so heavily dependent. teenagers in scotland are getting their results from their national and higher exams. the number of entries for highers and the proportion of students who received a pass mark has fallen slightly. all students will learn of their grades by post, but about 59,000 have also opted to receive them by text or email. catriona renton is at a school in cumbernauld. the national picture is now emerging

from this morning‘s results. we heard that the number of entries for highers has gone down slightly as has the number of passes but not by much, 77% last year, 76.8% of passes this year. the number of people applying to be higher english went up applying to be higher english went up although the number of passes went down in the opposite happened in maths and number of people applying went down but palace when up. that is the daycare by nationally —— the number who has went up. fraser, you got the result you are looking for. yes, i got my five as. in chemistry, maths, modern studies. that‘s what i really wanted. i‘m ecstatic. really pleased. it is incredible. starting to sink in? yes. elizabeth, what about you ? to sink in? yes. elizabeth, what about you? i also got five as. i

wa nt to about you? i also got five as. i want to go on to medicines. as the due, fraser. this is clearly very important for both of you because this is the way into university for you, partly anyway. some younger pupils like cameron, what have you been doing? girl—mac chemistry, design, manufacturing, geography, maths and physics. that is quite a list. they are five? yes, so i go on to do high as next year. what about you? line to do high as next year. what about you ? line eyeing to do high as next year. what about you? line eyeing the same. i got seven seven as. and in very different subject as well. view all done really well. congratulations to all of you and the headteacher here. tell us how you‘re feeling this morning. i'm a very proud headteacher here to day and the reflection of the results and hard work that has gone into that with both pupils and staff is a real

privilege to be here today. nowadays, from a new and i were at school, this is a big, momentous day has it feels but not the end of the world if it had not gone as well as you hoped. jaw absolutely not. there are you hoped. jaw absolutely not. there a re lots of you hoped. jaw absolutely not. there are lots of different pathways available to all different people. that is what is afforded to the young people nowadays because diverse city in terms of wider qualifications, world of work qualifications, world of work qualifications and apprenticeships means there is something of everyone in education. and there is a whole different range of exams being sat amongst the people here today from highest apprenticeships. we do have some people going on to do foundation apprenticeships alongside highers. we have people receiving results today on the back of that last year and getting a cafe now into the world of work. you had a look at the school and how they have done. how have you done? fabulous.

and alighted to see that the hard work everyone has put in has paid off andi work everyone has put in has paid off and i think staff will be really delighted when they see the results in each of the subjects and to see how well i young people have done over the course of the year. thank you. as proud mums and dads, harry feeling? line so proud. amazing by all the pupils and i‘m so proud. can‘t believe they did on television, though. that is something none of us would wa nt to that is something none of us would want to do. how you feeling? very proud. of everyone and especially fraser. he has worked so hard to i‘m delighted. nerve-racking for you as well. so nervous. excitement and nervous at the same time. so proud. congratulations to all of you. you‘ve all done so well and been so patient and tolerant with us this morning coming into school when you didn‘t have to do to open your results in front of us. these were not live on tv but in front of us to

really hear with you and know how it felt as felt that horrible guilt in our stomachs but the nice feeling of relief afterwards. congratulations to all those people behind you. surrey police have admitted serious failings in their investigation into dj jonathan king. the case against king collapsed injune and prosecutors have announced they won‘t seek a retrial over alleged historical sex offences. he‘d denied 23 serious sexual assault charges against teenage boys alleged to have taken place between 1970 and 1988. the police and crime commissioner for surrey, david munro, told me failures relating to disclosure is a national policing issue. there are serious flaws in the police process which i think is why the trial collapsed. i‘m very concerned about that and so together

with surrey police and the lewes i‘m commissioning an independent urgent review to find out in detail what went wrong and how we can put it right, notjust went wrong and how we can put it right, not just for this trial went wrong and how we can put it right, notjust for this trial but for any other trial the police are dealing with. i‘m very concerned and we need to take urgent action. what kind of flaws? give me an outline if not the detail, broadly speaking what went wrong? it was the issue of disclosure fundamentally. do you defence of the same information as the prosecution? it was seen that, in hindsight, there were inadequate awards of contact with some of the complainant ‘s, there was a failure to disclose some earlier reports which were material to the evidence and afailure which were material to the evidence and a failure to disclose medical evidence. just giving those as an example. it was a very, very coveted process. thousands of documents,

yea rs of process. thousands of documents, years of work and that is why i want this independent review really do with the matter in detail to see but there has been no doubt about it that, at the end, we have a trial which has collapsed, complainants and of course defendants now in limbo. that should not have happened and that is why it is so serious. on theissue and that is why it is so serious. on the issue of disclosure involving other salts of alleged crimes, rain cases for example and other police cases, this is notjust surrey police you‘re speaking about. —— rape cases. you‘ll note, it is a national issue and you have do have sympathy with police officers who are looking through tens of thousands of phone calls, facebook m essa g es thousands of phone calls, facebook messages and so on. we‘re moving

into another age here but we have to keep up with that and we have got to improve our procedures. i am confident nationally and in surrey that we have improved a lot and we are... we have disclosure rugby under control but i have to say this latest issue is quite a difficult one. the headlines on bbc news... six men who used speed boats to bring albanian migrants into kent from france have been found guilty of conspiracy to breach immigration laws. president trump calls sanctions reimposed on iran "the most biting ever" and warns other countries from doing business with tehran — the iranian government brands them psychological warfare. growth in life expectancy has stalled in the uk — it‘s one of the biggest slowdowns among the world‘s leading economies. more now on our top story.

six men who used speed boats to bring albanian migrants to the uk from france have been found guilty of conspiracy to breach immigration laws. two other men were found not guilty following a trial at the old bailey. one boat linked to the group had to be rescued after nearly sinking. it was built for six people but had 20 onboard including 18 albanian migrants. let‘s speak to mark mccormack from the national crime agency. thank you from being with us. this was a smuggling operation in which the migrants are paying thousands of pounds to come across the channel but for them, extremely dangerous. we were just hearing how overcrowded these boats were. it was a very lucrative business for the organised crime group. as you pointed out, the vessels were licensed to have six people on them. they had 20 people

on their including two facilitators. there was no safety equipment, they we re there was no safety equipment, they were not licensed for carrying passengers. these were bumps boards to facilitate migrants into the country. this is the busiest shipping channel in the world. how difficult was this case to investigate for your detectives? this case is a very complex case with far—reaching international aspects. the crime group was well organised with connections out to france and a network in france to which our colleagues worked with to deal with that title as well as a attack on uk. they had a transport distribution system. to the uk and elsewhere. they had a website and purchase new vessels regularly and facilitate the people in. they also used jet skis to transport people to

the uk from france which is reckless and very dangerous. only through collaborative working of kent police and the immigration service, cps, national crime agency and are partners in france is how we were able to combat this crime group. was an extraordinary plan, jet skis. absolutely. being able to utilise a jet ski to cross water across the busiest shipping channel in the world with huge tankers and no safety equipment, navigation aids, is reckless beyond belief. how worried i knew that there are other smuggling operations, people smuggling operations, people smuggling operations, people smuggling operations like this? we have a huge amount of coastline in the united kingdom. this is something we really need to be very watchful of that it is happening in other areas, is it? new national crime agency works with partners to safeguard the coastline. it wishes

to reassure members of the public both in those areas colony and elsewhere that we will look to identify and prosecute those involved in this illegal activity. thank you heard much for being with us. the hot weather has seen people heading to parks and public spaces to enjoy the sunshine, but after the bbq‘s and picnics, councils are left to clear up the mess. this was the scene outside buckingham palace yesterday with cans, bottles and wrappers all left behind. the charity keep britain tidy says littering is on the increase. graham satchell has been to parks in hackney in east london to see how they are coping with rubbish. why? why leave all this stuff just lying around ? it doesn‘t make sense. what‘s wrong with just taking, taking your litter back with you? this is kelvingrove park in glasgow,

after a bank holiday weekend earlier this year. this can‘t be right. it‘s a complete and utter mess today. this a similar picture in roundhay park in leeds. and these overflowing bins are in a park in cardiff. it really disgusts me. we had it up here a couple of weeks ago, some people are picnicking in all the sunshine and they just leave everything. it‘s awful. i think people need to take responsibility, particularly in light of the oceans, and it's going to be the future for the next generation. we have a duty of care. every time i come to the park and have something to eat or something, you know, just put it in the bin. it's not that hard to do. litter is a problem that‘s getting worse. a survey today of more than 7,000 public spaces by keep britain tidy shows 14% are unacceptable and heavily affected by litter. three years ago it was just 10%.

6.30 in the morning, hackney in east london. the parks team is out early, cleaning up. it‘s hard to speculate on why people think it‘s acceptable to stand up and leave their rubbish where they are, but they have to play a role as well, and people need to understand that places an additional cost on a local authority like hackney, which can sometimes collect up to two tonnes of rubbish from an area like london fields in a single litter pick. local authorities do have the power to issue on—the—spot fines to people who litter, but here in hackney they say what‘s really needed is more education, to show people it‘s socially environmentally unacceptable. we carried out a recent survey looking at a phenomenon we call careful littering. careful littering? careful littering, exactly. so it‘s important... lizzie kenyon is from keep britain tidy. she says most people already know throwing rubbish on the ground is unacceptable, but they have identified something more subtle. more than a quarter of people admit to leaving rubbish carefully — on a ledge, say, or next to a bench.

what we think might be going on is that people are sort of going to do the right thing, so they‘re not throwing the litter down but placing it somewhere where it might be collected, and actually when speaking to people about that, we found that people don‘t necessarily perceive that as littering, people who perhaps hadn‘t thought of themselves as a litterer had admitted to this particular behaviour. in manchester, keep britain tidy have started a campaign to clamp—down on so—called careful littering, nudging people to take their litter home. so far, it‘s reduced the problem by 20%. but is nudging people many enough, when so many parks and beaches have been left in states like this? graham satchell, bbc news. a student from texas has taken part in a graduation photo shoot with a difference — posing with a 14—foot alligator named big tex. makenzie noland, who will graduate from texas a&m university on friday, says she struck up a bond with tex while interning at a rescue centre for alligators, crocodiles and other reptiles.

makenzie says she‘s not scared of the alligator as she gets in the water with him every day — adding that he‘s one of her best friends at the centre. in a moment it‘s time for the one o‘clock news but first it‘s time for a look at the weather. good afternoon. changes are recruits. this is the final day for the time being at least when temperatures across parts of england will get up to the dizzy heights of 33 celsius. by tomorrow, no more 33, 23 is more likely and if you‘re watching this further west wondering what all the fuss is about, you‘ll temperatures are already down into the 20s and 23 is something you‘d be lucky to achieving parts of wales whether it is found that of cloud. scotland, too. fair amount of sunshine and warmth being held on to

any south east but temperatures are bound. much cooler and fresher further north. 17—18dc from glasgow or belfast but down to the south, showers and thunderstorms showing up across the channel islands. as we go on into the evening, some of those will drift across parts of south—east england and east anglia we re south—east england and east anglia were quite hit and miss, not everywhere will see some rain but if you do, a lot will be a short space of time thunder, lightning, hail and gusty winds as well. the showers and storms clear in the north sea by the early hours and then we will see clear spells with cloud floating in from the west and showers developing across parts of scotland and northern ireland. cool across most of the country and during tomorrow, all getting into that much cooler, fresher air from all getting into that much cooler, fresher airfrom the all getting into that much cooler, fresher air from the atlantic. a all getting into that much cooler, fresher airfrom the atlantic. a big dip in the temperatures. generally a bit more cloud around tomorrow across the south—eastern corner with some sunny spells. funny spells across some sunny spells. funny spells a cross m ost some sunny spells. funny spells across most of the country but from

western areas, a scattering of showers. some money heavy side but the kiddies temperatures. much lower than they have been two the south—east. we stick with the cooler feel, 17—18dc. adding to the end of the week, similar weather. a lot of fine weather, still sunshine but a scattering of showers at times and temperatures much lower. hygiene is all it 20s wherever you are across the country and then we get to the weekend. watching an area of low pressure spinning its name from the atlantic. some uncertainty the timing of this as it looks like in northern areas, we will see some wet weather and wherever you are across the country, someone the weather as well so things looking much more u nsettled well so things looking much more unsettled and cooler for the weekend. six men are found guilty of trying to smuggle albanian migrants in speed boats across the english channel. migrants paid thousands of pounds each to get to the uk.

the gang were caught after one overcrowded boat carrying at least 18 people ran out of fuel. we‘ll be getting the latest from the old bailey. also this lunchtime... us president donald trump re—imposes sanctions on iran — president rouhani accuses him of psychological warfare. a court hears that england cricketer ben stokes, on trial for affray, was not acting in self—defence — but with revenge, retaliation, or punishment in mind. a woman is pulled alive from a collapsed building on the indonesian island of lombok — two days after the earthquake which has left nearly a hundred people dead. fears of a hothouse earth as scientists warn we could be decades away from uncontrollable climate change — making parts of the planet uninhabitable
