deal is particular concern this deal is being financed by a loan but stan kroenke says it will not be serviced against arsenal —— with fans forced to sell shares. many questions remain outstanding. time for a look at the weather. there is a change coming. there is a change coming. there is a change coming. there is a change coming, you stole my first line. change is afoot, a few different changes. this is the last day for quite a while where we will get temperatures in the 30s. by tomorrow those parts of east anglia more likely to see 20. further west, wondering what i am talking about, thatis wondering what i am talking about, that is more clarity, you have already had your change, lucky to get 23. you can see storm clouds gathering across parts of france, moving across the english channel,

beginning to scrape into the south coast of england and that will become more of a feature of the weather heading deeper into the day. showers and thunderstorms in the south—east. before that, plenty of heat. 32, 30 three degrees. cooler and fresher further north and west where we have a further amount of cloud and sunny spells and scattered showers. this evening and tonight, keeping showers in western areas, clear spells as well, i want to focus on the thunderstorms, hit and miss. if you catch one in the south—east, london, east anglia, could see a lot of rain in the short space of time, could make for quite poor travelling conditions, maybe giving a bit of disruption, but they should clear into the north sea by the early hours of tomorrow. clear spells and showers into northern ireland and western scotland where it will also feel fairly cool and fresh. tomorrow we bring the caller fresher weather eastwards across all

parts of the uk. no more 30s, low to mid 20s at best. in the south—east corner, a little bit more cloud, cloud scattered across the country, and the west of scotland, northern ireland, wales, western england, scattering of showers, sunny spells, i7 scattering of showers, sunny spells, 17 in glasgow, 23 at best in london. we keep the cooler and fresher feel thursday and friday and again spells of sunshine and a scattering of showers, chance of more persistent rain pushing into the south—east at times late on thursday as well, and then we get to the weekend. keeping oui’ then we get to the weekend. keeping our eyes on the atlantic because we an area of low pressure developing, spinning its way in, tightly squeezed isobars, at this stage, it looks like most of the ring will be in northern parts and not as much further south —— most of the rain. 0n the weekend, strong and blustery

winds, outbreaks of rain at times, but still spells of sunshine as well. yes, change on the way. a reminder of our main story this lunchtime. six men are found guilty of trying to smuggle albanian migrants in speedboats across the english channel. that's all from the bbc news at one. 0n bbc one, we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. good afternoon. i'm holly hamilton. here's your latest sports news... there was gold for matt walls in the men's elimination race at the european championships in glasgow. the event which sees the last rider across the line on every other lap getting eliminated saw the group whittled down to the top

three which also included portugal's rui oliveira and szymon krawczyk of poland in the final sprint — but it was the 20—year—old mancunian who crossed the line first — giving him his first major championships medal. i've done a lot of regular nations to my riding career but, yeah, it was a great race, hard race and they came up with a wind. i came off today feeling really good and i could be the lead from the front and thatis could be the lead from the front and that is what i did. coverage of the cycling is live on bbc two right now where laura kenny and katie archibald are going for gold in the madison. kenny looking for her third gold medal at this event. this is a relay race consisting of teams of two riders — 120 laps with a sprint every 10 laps. while one team member races, the other slows down to take a rest before being thrown back into the action with a hand sling from her team—mate. the classification is

calculated according to the number of points won. 23 european golds between kenny and archibald — archibald is one half of the reigning world champion madison duo with emily nelson. so they'll be fancying their chances. meanwhile, the athletics has been getting under way in berlin where the reigning champion martyn rooney onlyjust made it out of the a00m opening round. only the top two were guaranteed to qualify. rooney finished third but made it through as a fastest loser, joining team—mates lloyd cowan, rabah yousef and matthew hudson—smith in the semi—finals. i've been all over the place of my pacing this year and it is 50 metres of relaxing as well. there is a bit

of relaxing as well. there is a bit of complacency and it was just a poor run of poor execution of the race. coming in to defend the title is that it can be losing the heat. it isa is that it can be losing the heat. it is a tough, tough semi. and great britain have made a strong start in the women's 800m event. lynsey sharp has qualified for the semi finals along with her gb teammates shelayna 0skan—clarke and adelle tracey. the overwhelming favourite in the men's decathlon, france's kevin mayer, is out of the competition after he recorded three fouls in the long jump. the two other french decathletes in the competition also failed to register a jump. great britain's tim duckworth is fourth after three events. arsenal's majority shareholder, stan kroenke who owns over two thirds of the club's shares has made an offer to buy the whole club. the announcement was made to the london stock exchange this morning. kroenke's company kse says that the other major shareholder alisher usmanov has agreed to sell his 30% stake. kroenke says single ownership

will help to further arsenal's strategy and ambitions. arsenal supporters trust are opposed to the takeover calling a dreadful day for the club with concernas over transparency and accountabilty. the worst—case scenario is that money will be taken out of the club in the form of dividends and management fees to pay the debts that have been taken out by arsenal. we know he is an investor so there will be less money going into the clu b will be less money going into the club and more going out. will be less money going into the club and more going outm will be less money going into the club and more going out. if you want to keep up from all the latest from the european championships, really this is on the website and/ sport. that's all the sport for now. is that it? i can keep it coming, only the 65 laps left. i will let

you off. thank you are much. surrey‘s police and crime commissioner has announced an independent review into the collapse of the trial of the former dj, jonathan king. he was accused of 23 serious sexual assaults against boys, allegations he denied. it's emerged the trial was halted in june. surrey police have admitted serious failings in their investigation. the police and crime commissioner for surrey, david munro, told ben brown failures relating to disclosure is a national policing issue. there are serious flaws of the wily trial, and i'm very concerned about that. i is an independent review. and how i can put it right. notjust for this trial but for any other issues that the police are dealing with. i'm very concerned and we need

to ta ke with. i'm very concerned and we need to take urgent action. what kind of laws 7 -- what kind of flaws? what went wrong? the issue of disclosure. is the same information given to be defended and prosecution? it was seen that in hindsight, there were inadequate blogs of contact with some of the complainants, a failure to disclose earlier reports which were material evidence and cellular disclose medical evidence for that is an example, years of work and that is why i want this independent review to the matters in detail to see what actually happened. there was no doubt about it. now we have a trial that has collapsed. complainants and of course defendants now in limbo

and that is why it happened and why it associates. we have seen fairly as an essential disclosure involving other sorts of alleged crimes, rape cases for example and other police forces so this is not surrey police we re forces so this is not surrey police were talking about. absolutely not. 0ne were talking about. absolutely not. one has to have something to be with hard—pressed one has to have something to be with ha rd—pressed police officers one has to have something to be with hard—pressed police officers who are looking to tens of thousands of phone calls, facebook messages and we are moving into another age here. i have two —— we have to keep up with that and improve procedures. we have improved a lot. we have disclosure broadly under control and

this latest issue is one i find very concerning. the local pub is in decline with figures showing 18 are closing every week in the uk. a70 closed in the first six months of this year alone, according to the campaign for real ale, but how well are village pubs faring? our business presenter ben thompson went to visit one in the peak district. this might not look like a pub but it is, it also has a coffee shop and post office here as well because the local community here in derbyshire brought this pub back from the brink. it was facing closure and the local community bought it and run and manage it so this is the traditional pub but it is the centre of the community. pam was pretty incremental in bringing this pub back from the brink. you had a different career before you started. explain what it was. i used to be a legal aid lawyer and i managed three

offices. in comparison, it was a piece of cake. what has been so difficult that this because you got your hands on this pub in 2013? we raised £260,000, got a mortgage and a loan to pay the fact and i think the main thing is you take on a failing business, premises with no... but he got a grant. that is the reason the barwick said fantastic is because the refurbished it but it is an ongoing struggle really. this is good being in a jewellery is an area because it brings extra people but you're a very small community with only 600 people in the village, thousands in the wider powers to making surely get people coming in regularly is a huge boost for us. and you have lots of people coming in so i willjust it quick. you know there is the rising food and drink prices, duty on alcohol, there are those rates as

well. with the two people to talk more. don is from the campaign for real ale and susan is from an organisation and how we make pumps work. 18 pubs per week closing is an improvement on what it used to be even though it sounds a lot. the might guess, is used to be 50 per week and it has come down but we are not being complacent. once they close, they close. quite regular advice on how to use pubs for different purposes like this one has a post office and body shop. what else can organisations do to people wa nt else can organisations do to people want to come? the first thing they can do is to their community, find out what their community wants to see in the pub, no point in imposing services they don't need and secondly, do things like libraries, cafes, cinemas, live theatre, all sorts of things and it isjust cafes, cinemas, live theatre, all

sorts of things and it is just they to your imagination really and what the unity ones. is there a point that part of close because people don't want to come to them? the way we socialise, eat and drink out has changed, as it down to the party they got the times? is this a reflection of it? now, the problem is pubs are not playing on a level playing field. they'll hit by high duty rates on dear, high business rates as well. tax reductions are happening to give pubs a chance and give them a permanent relief from business rates. that would be maybe be paying on a battered playing an a—level playing field and at the moment great pubs are being forced into closure. lisa, from your point of view, it is about making it a place people want to come. yes, that rural services, services in communities and seeing if you can bring them into the pub. thank you

for the idiot is very busy here this morning to a lot of people coming down that have bought into this pub, shareholders, they take responsibility for owning and running it and there are some stats that get a salary wage but a lot of it is run by volunteers and, as he set about turning a profit for the first time this year, it has been a long sward but a success story year in derbyshire, in the peak district. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first 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'. 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. and the business news...

good afternoon. uk pension companies may be harbouring billions of pounds of losses from home equity release loans, according to research seen by the bbc. under equity release, homeowners borrow money against their house's value and don't repay anything until it's sold. that's fine for the borrower, but there are fears lenders have underestimated how much these loans could cost them. more on that story on our website. it looks like uber is going to face more competition in the uk. ola, an indian ride—hailing business, will launch in the uk after obtaining licences to operate in south wales and greater manchester. the heatwave has spurred people into splashing out on fans, food and drink, but it has failed to prevent a slowdown in spending growth, according to data released today by the british retail consortium. better news for pubs, according to barclaycard they saw a 73 per cent on the day of england 5 semi—final in the world cup.

we're all streaming more television and films. a report by the 0ns on internet usage shows close to half of all adults said they had watched netflix, now tv, amazon prime video or a similar internet—based service over the past three months. we're also doing more internet banking — 69%, up from 60% and overall, around 90% of households have some internet access. so what does this mean for uk businesses and high streets? joining us now isjim edwards, founding editor, of business insider uk. talk me through this rise in

internet usage. basically, more or less, give or take, internet usage. basically, more or less, give ortake, nine internet usage. basically, more or less, give or take, nine or 10%, internet usage. basically, more or less, give ortake, nine or10%, we all have internet access. how does that change the way we use it? internet penetration in britain is 89%, nine out of ten households which make the internet one of those things like electricity or water thatis things like electricity or water that is almost a utility at everyone has, it is the normal medium and everyday life and a business —— and of business of course. how does that change how we should look at the internet in terms of companies and the way the governments seize them? if it does become like a utility, it is something we expect rather than a luxury. —— the way the governments sees them. the other it will change the way britain looks physically. 95% of people under 25 do their shopping online engines of all of uk retail, 20—a0% of all retail is done online. prisoners were the most online. prisoners were the most online nations the planet. that

raises a series of questions about what is the purpose of the high street? in the future, if these trends continue and they will, shopping will not be purpose of the high street so all that physical real estate we have, there is a giant question mark hanging over it, frankly. in the report, i read that adults 65 years old or over, the number has travelled since 2008. it is 48%. ok, you might say less than half but it was only 16% in 2008. that is a really promising statistic was it means older people, who traditionally do not adopt trends as fast as the rest of us, have decided that, yes, the internet is where we wa nt to that, yes, the internet is where we want to be, how we want to communicate and it is from simple stuff like keeping in touch with your sons and daughters on facebook to making really serious, expensive shopping decisions online for things like cars, for instance, where my mum is in that age bracket and has

bought more than one car online. she must have lots of money! she likes cars. let's move on. it also shows banking, online banking, 69% of us use convert to 60% this time last year. that truly is a wake—up call to many banks, no names names, that have had issues with online banking and need to up their game. security is an issue there. people want to do their banking online. people generally don't like cash. we've all had the excuse of going into a taxi, going into a shop as well, been told they don't take cash and they want to pay with derby days. banks have a huge problem which is then are under co nsta nt huge problem which is then are under constant threat —— we want to pay with card. that is where people want to be come online, because it is convenient, safe and secure on the flip side is that in a new target

for thieves. let's take a look at some other business stories. danish jewellery maker pandora is to cut almost 400 jobs, after warning that full—year sales will be lower than expected. shares were trading down by almost 20% at one point earlier, the lowest level since may 2014. pandora has suffered as fewer people visit shopping centres, especially in its key us market. known for its charm bracelets, pandora is the world's largest jeweller by production volume. you might want to pay closer attention to your energy bills over the next few months — five million people will see a rise in their bills — around £47 per year. energy regulator 0fgem is raising its safeguard tariff because of higher wholesale energy costs. the tariff, which protects five million prepayment meter and vulnerable customers from being overcharged on poor value deals, will be £1,136 for dual fuel customers from the 1st october. and a bit of cheery news to end

with — in the uk we think we're going to die sooner than we actually do. the institute for fiscal studies is releasing analysis showing how long people expect to live and how much we're all saving for our later years. how long people expect to live is important for their choices about retirement. so apparently we're not saving enough in anticipation of this. let's ta ke let's take a quick look at the markets. looking good for the london market. 0ver1% and crude prices on the rise. cheery news. we are all going to die a bit later. yes, apart from me, thank you much. 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 ? just doesn‘t make sense. what‘s wrong with just 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 were out picnicking in all the sunshine

and theyjust 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, i always 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 is hard to speculate on why people think it is 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 that places an additional cost on the 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 and environmentally unacceptable. we carried out a recent survey looking at a phenomenon called 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 people are sort of going to do the right thing, so they are not throwing the litter down, but they are placing it somewhere where it might be collected. and actually, when speaking to people about that, we have found that people do not necessarily conceive that is littering. people perhaps hadn't thought of themselves as a litterer had admitted to this particular behaviour. in manchester, keep britain tidy has started a campaign to clamp down on so—called careful littering, urging people to take their litter home. so far, it has reduced the problem by 20%.

but is nudging people enough when so many parks and beaches have been left in states like this? graham satchell, bbc news. now it‘s time for a look at the weather. someone was saying yesterday, going to change tonight. yes, predicted a bit early, including arthur actually, we said that. some cooler air on uefa last, though, with temperatures like these coming to an end. by tomorrow, more like 23 rather than 33. if you‘re wondering what i‘m talking about from the west, we‘ve already had that. you‘d be lucky to get 20 fiji degrees in those places. you can see the satellite picture with some storm clouds spreading up from

france are pushing into southern parts of england‘s and showers and thunderstorms increasingly becoming a part of the forecast here as they go through the rest of the picture. further north and west, sunny spells, a few showers. a cooler, fresher feel but down towards the south—east, one more afternoon after pictures like these, 32—33dc. we go through this evening and tonight and keep one or two showers in western areas. patchy clouds, the real action takes place at the south east, hit and miss thunderstorms across the south east of england, pa rt across the south east of england, part of east anglia, scraping into the east midlands will already catch one, it could give you a lot of rain ina one, it could give you a lot of rain in a short space of time as well as thunder, lightning, hail and in a short space of time as well as thunder, lightning, hailand gusty winds. against the bit of disruption as possible. those storms that should clear off during the early hours as left with a makeshift clear spells, bit of cloud. turning ever

cooler and fresher and as we head into tomorrow, all of us will feel the effects of that cooler, fresher air. a big dip in the temperatures for many and we will still see many spells of sunshine. for western areas, the south—west, there will be areas, the south—west, there will be a scattering of showers and one of johnny heaviside. temperatures, well, 17 celsius in glasgow. 23 celsius across the south—east. that‘s your lot. as we head into thursday and friday, a lot of dry weather but some showers around and weather but some showers around and we keep those lower temperatures, high teens in some areas, scraping into the 20s with the jazz of more persistent rain pushing into the south—east and then we will do. what is this? something we‘ve not seen for quite a while, and the area of low pressure handling in our direction. it is likely that us will probable areas at this stage but you are, the regional bling and bring

some blustery winds, outbreaks of rain at times and a much cooler, fresher feel so some rain at times and a much cooler, fresherfeel so some big changes on the way. that‘s all from me for now. more weather during afternoon live. hello, you‘re watching afternoon live, i‘m carole walker. today at 2. six men are found guilty of trying to smuggle albanian migrants in speed boats across the english channel. the gang were caught after one overcrowded boat carrying at least 18 people ran out of fuel. there were unsuitably closed for the passage. they didn‘t have any lifejackets and they were very overcrowded and they seemed to be in a great deal of distress, all of them. 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.
