at the great north run. and at 11.30 you can watch dateline for the latest analysis on brexit and other top stories from around the world. hello, good morning to you. several senior conservatives have criticised borisjohnson for his latest blistering attack on theresa may's brexit plan. the former foreign secretary said mrs may had "wrapped a suicide vest" around the british constitution and " handed the detonator" to the eu. the home secretary, sajid javid, said there were "much better ways" to articulate differences and the row served as a reminder to public figures to use measured language. writing in the mail on sunday, mrjohnson said ‘we have opened ourselves to perpetual

political blackmail‘. he went on to say — his language has already been criticised by some conservative mps. the foreign office minister, alan duncan called his remarks ‘disgusting'. 0ur political correspondent, helen catt explained the latest storm around mrjohnson. he decided to employ this metaphor ofa he decided to employ this metaphor of a suicide vest saying theresa may would be wrapping a suicide vest around the british constitution and handing the detonator to the eu. as you said, that seem some quite vocal backlash, sir alan duncan who work with boris johnson backlash, sir alan duncan who work with borisjohnson at backlash, sir alan duncan who work with boris johnson at the backlash, sir alan duncan who work with borisjohnson at the foreign 0ffice with borisjohnson at the foreign office said it marked a disgusting moment in modern edition politics, tom tugendhat the chair of the foreign affairs select committee who was a former serving officer in afghanistan, strong condemnation for

him -- afghanistan, strong condemnation for him —— from him, he said a suicide bomb he saw while in helmand province, comparing the prime minister to that was not funny and he urged some people to grow up. not eve ryo ne he urged some people to grow up. not everyone strong he urged some people to grow up. not everyone strong in their criticism, community secretary james broken sure criticised his tone and sajid javad speaking to andrew marr this morning stopped short of criticising him quite so vocally. i think there are much better ways to articulate differences and i think it's a reminderl differences and i think it's a reminder i think for all of us in the policy whichever political party we represent, to use measured language which i think that is what the public wants to see. in terms of measured language it's the first time i've had a chance to ask you, would you approve the description of women who were hit jab or kneecap as letterboxes? it's not language i would use. do you think he has a language problem? get on your programme and present yourself. do

you think he's islamophobic? sorry, say you think he's islamophobic? sorry, sa ' you think he's islamophobic? sorry, say again? do you think he's islamophobic? no. i'd known him well over a islamophobic? no. i'd known him well overa numberof years, islamophobic? no. i'd known him well over a number of years, i think he loves all of britain's communities ina loves all of britain's communities in a matter for it they come from. look at the stuff in today's papers, do you think he would be a third leader of the conservative party? we're not looking for a leader, we are lucky to have a very good leader and she is also the prime minister of this country and she's doing a greatjob. of this country and she's doing a great job. he may say party is not looking for a leader but boris johnson may have other ideas, there is speculation he is preparing a leadership bid and this article some would say paves the way for this leadership it. absolutely, those things are borisjohnson says at the moment are being viewed through the prism of his leadership ambitions. this was an article designed to cause a stir and there will be those who love this sort of turn of phrase but it gets him on the front pages

and of course he is a politician that has the sort of cut through with the public that many other aspiring conservative leaders can only dream of. all of this other time when his private life has been under scrutiny, claims in the sunday times today that alnwick street have a sort of dossier, 4000 words dossier to use against. this is what the sunday times describes as a poor thousands word war book which covers areas like his love life and other personal matters, said to have started circulating investments did last week despite being written in 2016. of course last week was when they got the revelations about his private life in the papers which again some have said may hinder his leadership ambitions, others thinking it might just leadership ambitions, others thinking it mightjust be getting all the bad news at first. downing street has categorically denied that they leaked the dossier to undermine borisjohnson, they they leaked the dossier to undermine boris johnson, they say it's offensive and 100% untrue to suggest they leaked it. that was our political correspondent, helen catt,

talking to me a little earlier. the tuc has said it will back the campaign for another public vote on brexit if the government doesn't secure a final deal. speaking on the bbc‘s andrew marr programme, the tuc‘s general secretary, frances 0'grady said the uk was in danger of crashing out of the eu, and called for more time for negotiations to take place. the government has been accused of failing to prepare for the potential impact which brexit could have on peace and security at the irish border. the chief constable of the police service of northern ireland, george hamilton says if the border were to return it would be exploited by criminals and terrorists. in an interview with the sunday times he says that some politicians don't understand the dangers — the government says it is considering his call for extra resources. 0ur correspondent louise cullen is in belfast with more details. this isn't new from george hamilton, he's been telling the government of

the past year they need to prepare for peace and security in northern ireland in the event of the border being resurrected. i think these remarks are being aired with an increasing amount of frustration, he said back injune the psni has a business plan to address these problems, he wants 400 more officers, more vehicles and equipment and no one is signing off on that and no one giving him an answer. the government has recognised there is a unique situation for the psni and says it is looking at his concerns because of that land border but george hamilton in this article, says 20 years after the good friday agreement, 600 days after the collapse of the assembly, there may be a feeling that although perhaps, the troubles may be regarded as resolved and things are quieter, they are still policing this border 24/7, he calls it a high threat border and says it's still very tricky to address the concerns but he fears some in government regard it as

peripheral both geographically and in terms of impact. he says that's absolutely not the case, if the border is resurrected it will be exploited by criminals and terrorists, even such things as smuggling which he thinks the government may regard as small, that is the lifeblood of terrorist organisations and it needs to be planned for and anticipated. rules which prevent some victims of crime from being compensated if they lived with their attacker are being scrapped by the ministry ofjustice. the "same roof rule" was changed in 1979, but not retrospectively, meaning victims from before that time have been refused payouts. last year, more than a 150—million pounds was paid out by the scheme. here's our home affairs correspondent, danny shaw. after a violent crime, what happens to the victims? for over 50 years, they have been able to claim compensation under a scheme funded by the state. but the government says the system needs modernising to reflect

the changing nature of crime, so it is starting a review. the criminal injuries compensation scheme review will examine the two—year time limit on bringing claims, if people with convictions for certain offences should be barred from compensation, and whether sexual grooming victims should be able to make claims. currently, they can't. following a court case this summer, ministers are also promising to scrap the so—called same roof rule. it blocks compensation claims from victims who lived with their attacker before 1979. last year's terror attacks highlighted concerns about compensation for victims who had suffered many different types of injury. so the review will look at whether payments are set at the right level. whitehall budgets are tight. the review will consider if the compensation scheme is sustainable and if the proposed changes are affordable. danny shaw, bbc news. polls have opened in sweden

in a general election dominated by the rise of an anti—immigration party. the nationalist sweden democrats, stand a good chance of becoming the second biggest party in parliament. their campaigning has focused on immigration and crime. the social democrat prime minister, stefan luhveyn, was spotted on his way to the polling booth this morning and answered questions on the prospect of a good showing for the sweden democrats, a party he's previously accused of spreading extremism. are you worried? 0f are you worried? of course, either we stay with a decent democracy or we stay with a decent democracy or we choose another path. a little earlier we spoke to our europe

correspondent gavin lee, who has spent the morning in the swedish capital, stockholm. what we have seen is a reflex of similar circumstances in other countries in europe, the issues of migration and here in sweden, the sweden democrats are the emergent party, talking about the worry of crime, a spike in gun crime and gang crime, conflating that with migration. it's an issue because back in 2015 sweden saw the most migrants enter this country per capita, 163,000, the government put restrictive measures in place and what was supposed to be a schengen free border travel area, there are checks on the borders and those temporary checks are still in place and while the established parties say other factors are in place like wild fires over the summer, social welfare, housing, stopping increased privatisation, it

has been the centrifugal force coming back to migration, the social democrats the main party, according to the polls will see their biggest slip in 70 years in politics, expecting the lowest result about 20%, the centre—right moderates expecting 20% with the sweden democrats around the same figure. some say they could be the highest party and their leader saying they are not racist, the other parties saying they are toxic and they would not work with them if by the polls ending tonight at 8pm, they have to look at coalition politics. the great north run has been underway and will soon come to a close — tens of thousands of people have registered to take part . among them will be sir mo farah, the four—time 0lympic champion is bidding for a fifth—consecutive victory. 0ur reporter alison freeman spoke to some of the racers about their costumes —

been grabbing the headlines after she accused the umpire of sexism and treating her unfairly. williams was cited by the official for three code violations inlcuding getting coaching signals, breaking her racket, and for calling at1.i at 1.1 felt bad because i was crying and she was crying and i felt this wasn't how i felt when i won my first grand slam, i was like i don't wa nt first grand slam, i was like i don't want her to feel like that. maybe it was the mother in me that was like, we have to pull ourselves together here! well naomi 0sa ka was reduced to tears as she accepted her first grand slam trophy. the ceremony was met with a chorus of boos from williams' home us open crowd, who had been unhappy

with her treatment during the match. for me it felt like a normal match walking up to the net, but it is serena on the other side and she hugged me and it was really awesome. when i step onto the court i feel like a different person. i am not a serena fan, i am just a tennis player. but when i hugged her, i'm sorry... anyways, when i hugged her at the net, i felt... like a little kid again, so... sorry. so naomi 0saka does become the first japanese woman to win a grand slam. these were the scenes in tokyo as fans gathered to watch her make history. the 20—year old no doubt hoping it will be the first of many majors. britain's jamie murray won a fourth grand slam mixed doubles title alongside partner bethanie mattek sands. the pair had to fight back from a set down against croatia's nikola mektic

and poland's alicja rosolska, before going on to win the championship tie—break11—9. and congratulations to alfie hewett and gordon reid won the wheelchair doubles title and andy lapthorne who won the quad wheelchair doubles, with partner david wagner. cricket and england are looking to strengthen their overnight advatange on the third morning of the fifth and final test against india at the oval. england already have an unassailable 3—1 lead in the series. james anderson could break a record today too — he's just three wickets away from overtaking australia's glenn mcgrath as the most successful fast bowler in the history of the game. although he's been fined 15 percent of his match fee for showing dissent at an umpire's decision yesterday. england were beaten 2—1 by spain at wembley in the nations league, their first match since the world cup. they made the perfect start when marcus rashford,

one of three changes to the side that lost against croatia, opened the scoring. spain manged to level just two minutes later. and rodrigo moreno then took advantage of poor marking at a free—kick to score the winner from close range after 32 minutes. we got to keep faith in the way we are trying to play otherwise we go back to what we did historically and there's no way i believe we will ever be a top team if we do that. so we've got to be brave enough to stick to our principles, and you know, just get better at what we are doing and identify how we improve. but that is not going to be an easy task because you can see the level of the top teams and ride across the summer we of the top teams and ride across the summer we aren't under no illusions about that. northern ireland had a disappointing start to their nations league campaign losing 2—1 to bosnia—herzegovina. michael 0'neill‘s side had the better of the early chances

but it was the visitors who opened the scoring and went on to claim victory. that's all the sport for now. i'll have more in the next hour. let's get more now on comments by the former foreign secretary about the prime minister's brexit plans. writing in the mail on sunday borisjohnson that mrs may had "wrapped a suicide vest" around the british constitution and "handed the detonator" to the eu. we canjoin we can join the political correspondent at the spectator katie boulter, what's your analysis, or these remarks which have provoked a lot of criticism already today, are they part of borisjohnson's leadership did? i don't think you could write those words and not think you are going to get a response, they are not accidental and it's not the first time we have seen and it's not the first time we have seen him since leaving the front

bench, use quite colourful language. we had the burka gate row over the summer, we had the burka gate row over the summer, you are we had the burka gate row over the summer, you are asking 40 is doing. we know he wants to derail the bra kes we know he wants to derail the brakes are planned, we know he doesn't like chequers, heath calling the phrase chuck chequers, does he wa nt to the phrase chuck chequers, does he want to derail it and step into number ten and take control and i think this is for we are stopping short of saying it but connect the dots it's very hard to see how it would be politically sustainable for theresa may to change her political position and stay post with any credibility or authority. he seems to be using increasingly colourful language about brexit in particular. yes and we've all so seen him stepping it up, we have his weekly telegraph column, i think in about six hours we will get another dose of this and that has had the rhetoric having higher and higher and we've had things like a white flag fluttering and this seems to be a more extreme way of suggesting surrender and not being good for the country. he said chequers is a

disaster. if you are ratcheting up this much the question is where is it going which is why i think a lot of people, everyone basically agrees that he has his eyes on the leadership, the question is when is that move and rather than ever and people are looking at the tory conference as a point we know he is going up, doing a conservative rally and that would be a point third you would start to see him making bolder moves. but i don't, there are some rumours by tom watson the labour deputy leader that there could be a challenge as soon as monday, i'm a bit sceptical of that. he's all over the front pages today, not only for those remarks about exit but also his private life and the sunday times reporting that downing street had some sort of dossier on him, a 4000 word dossier to sort of smear him. you attach any credence to that? this story about the dossier thing relates to a document that exists but the defence being this was drawn up not for this leadership

attack, it was backjust after the eu referendum in theresa may was going for the leadership the first time. the person who wrote it no longer works for theresa may and documented parts of his quite colourful private life, lots of it all ready out in the open, so i think there is a suggestion that maybe they were going to try and weapon is it again but that's been denied, i think it's played badly with the brexiteers, within the party personal attacks are not seen as the done thing and i think if it looks like number ten is trying to attack it like that but would anger attack it like that but would anger a lot of the brexit groups. much talk about his private life, criticism of the language he uses, what are his chances of becoming leader if he were to stand, we know he's pretty popular with the tory party grassroots. but what about in parliament and so on? this is his big challenge, as ucb know his popular with the grassroots, since leaving the run benches popularity has soared, we get membership polls from conservative home and he often topped them again but to get

membership in a leadership contest to get the final two, they get to vote on them, you go through seven rounds of the parliamentary party and with them he's not so popular. articles like the one today in the mail on sunday, we see alan duncan, his former colleague and the foreign 0ffice basically suggesting he will do whatever it takes to end boris is political career, sajid javad saying it's not language he would use the anchored you will see quite a big backlash. recent events make it harderfor him to get backlash. recent events make it harder for him to get through to that found even at his popularity amongst the grassroots is high. going to be a fascinating few months in british politics, katie boulter, from the spectator, thank you. 11:25am. the british star, 0livia colman, has been named best actress at this year's venice film festival for her portrayal of queen anne in "the favourite", which is due for release in the uk next year. the festival's top award ——

the golden lion went to a black—and—white spanish—language drama called "roma". it brings netflix its first major festival victory and seals the online streaming company's reputation as a big name in arthouse movies. laura westbrook reports alfonso cuaron's roma is a deeply personal black—and—white memoir. it was inspired by his childhood in the roma district of mexico city and the film seems to have inspired thejudges, too. alfonso cuaron for roma. taking the top prize at the venice film festival. it was a decision that was reached entirely unanimously by the entire jury. so 9—0. i am the queen. but you are mad. the favourite, which, like roma, focuses predominantly on female characters, took the grand jury prize. it starred, 0livia colman, received the best actress award for her portrayal of queen anne. best actor went to willem dafoe, who played vincent van gogh in the biopic at eternity‘s gate.

despite stories about women dominating the festival, only one of the films was directed by a woman. jennifer kent took the specialjury prize for the nightingale, a revenge thriller set in 19th—century tasmania. and she made a plea in her acceptance speech. i would just also like to say to all those women out there wanting to make films, please go and do it, we need you. applause. however, the talk of the night was most certainly netflix. roma was one of six netflix films that premiered here and it is the first big win for the streaming service at a major festival. cannes banned netflix from its competition. the online giant has been attacked for its strategy of making films available for streaming on the same day they are released in cinemas. while some worry about what that would do to the movie industry, alfonso cuaron sees it as an opportunity. this is a film that is in

black—and—white, in spanish and mixteco, in mexican. with no recognisable actors or stars. and they are giving a huge, huge international push for this film. releasing it both streaming and also theatrical. not any company does that. as the conversation about the future of film continues, what does seem certain is that we will hear more about roma as the awards season approaches. laura westbrook, bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather. here is thomas shafran actor. for many of us this afternoon, bright and breezy. the further north you
