hello. you are watching bbc news with ben brown. our latest headlines: police investigating the murder of british backpacker grace millane in new zealand find a body. this brings the search for grace to an end. it is an unbearable time for the millane family and our hearts go out to them. waters if the commons rejects her brexit deal. and downing street insists there will be no delay to the vote on tuesday. more than 1700 arrests in france after another weekend of violent protests yesterday. police again use tear gas and rubber bullets against the demonstrators and the french prime minister calls for unity. sport and for a full round up from the bbc sport centre here's olly foster. and liverpool are top of the premier

league. you will be feeling good about yourself! liverpool are now the only unbeaten side in the premier league. mo salah scored a hat trick in their 4—0 win at bournemouth to send them top of the table by a point. pep guardiola said his manchester city team was fantastic at chelsea yesterday but they lost 2—0. adam wild reports on the first twist in the title race. manchester city beaten in the premier league for the first time this season. we could have one heck of a title race on. the premier league feels a rather different place this morning. the unbeaten finally beaten. chelsea the first to do what some had begun to think was impossible. i am very, very happy with the win, because i think it is not really very easy to win against manchester city and it is not easy to win against guardiola. that feels something of an understatement. pep guardiola's side hadn't been beaten in the league since april.

ka nte! chelsea ending that extraordinary sequence. n'golo kante and then david luiz giving fresh hope that this title chase remains very much on. with that new hope, new leaders. liverpool are now top of the league after they and in particular mo salah ran rings around bournemouth. a comfortable 4—0 victory. a hat trick for salah. they are now the side to catch. in arm's reach, if not quite in touching distance yet, spurs are back into third. brilliant, brilliant goal by son heung—min. they kept up their pursuit with a win against leicester city and remain the side putting the pressure on the top two. there has not been too much cause for optimism at old trafford this season. but amidst the gloom, an occasional glimpse of something brighter. ashley young showing the way against fulham. manchester united's biggest win

of the season completed by marcus rashford. a change in fortunes for them perhaps, but while the premier league may feel a different place this morning, fulham will hope it changes even more. they remain bottom. adam wild, bbc news. there were also wins for burnley, cardiff, west ham and arsenal, who left it late at home to huddersfield. lucas torreira came up with this spectacular winner. he wasn't very far out but that bicycle kick came in the 83rd minute. just the one goal deciding that match. arsenal's unbeaten run in all competitions this season is now up to 21. let's just return to the match at stamford bridge. anti—discrimination charity kick it out says: "yet another great day of football has been

damaged by prejudice." the metropolitan police and chelsea are investigating an incident of alleged racist abuse during the match with manchester city. a group of men in the home end hurled abuse at raheem sterling as he went to collect the ball for a corner. no arrests have been made. the police say they will review footage. chelsea say they will take the strongest possible action where necessary. kilmarnock‘s stay at the top of the scottish premiership was all too brief. celtic are now leaders after beating them 5—1. rangers will go top today if they get a big win at bottom club dundee later. there were also wins for stjohnstone, hibs and hearts yesterday, and for livingstone, who beat st mirren 3—1. ryan hardie helping them on their way with his first goal of the season. livingstone are back in the top six. england and scotland have been drawn in the same group for next summer's women's world cup in france. they were also in the same european championship group last year. england won that 6—0. argentina and japan, who knocked england out in the semi—finals of the last

world cup, make up their group. the england—scotland match is in nice on 9thjune. i don't think this is a game we're going to need to build up. both sets of players know each other inside out. a lot of them play in the same clubs together at arsenal and city. i watched scotland against usa last month and they played fantastic. really dogged. great spirit about them. something good is happening in scottish women's football. obviously our first time at the world cup and of course you draw england in the first game. i know everyone will talk about what happened in the euros but what we have to focus on is the full group and notjust one opponent. we know it is going to be tough. we knew it was going to be tough whoever we drew. the second leg of the copa libertadores final between river plate and boca juniors will be played in madrid this evening. south america's equivalent of the champions league should have reached it's conclusion

in buenos aires a fortnight ago, but was twice postponed because of fan violence. the boca team bus was attacked, injuring some players. they chose the spanish capital because there is a large argentinian community there. european rugby union returned this weekend after the international break. the champions cup holders leinster have taken a big step towards the knockout stage with a 17—10 win over bath. the game was all square untiljordan larmour caught this interception to put the irish side in front. he won the foot race. that leaves bath still without a win and effectively ends their campaign. exeter are in the same boat after they lost at home to gloucester, who are top of their pool. ben morgan's try sealing a 27—19 win. a huge win for glasgow boosted their hopes of reaching the knockout stage. hquones scored their bonus—point try in a 42—22 win over lyon in france. glasgow are top of their group. defending champion ronnie o'sullivan

faces mark allen in the final of the uk snooker championship in york this afternoon. o'sullivan breezed past tom ford six frames to one. that semifinal was very one—sided. allen beat stuart bingham in the other semifinal. o'sullivan is on course for a record seventh title. just as long as you play well, competing. you know, in one tournament hopefully your name will be written on it. that's how i look at it. you can play brilliantly and lose sometimes but that's just snooker. i have just got to try and be consistent, competitive, enjoying it, and when a win comes, you're over the moon. he is certainly worth watching at the moment, the rocket. he is on form. that final is on bbc two and it starts at one o'clock. i will be back on bbc news in the next hour with more sport, but now it is the papers with ben.

hello and welcome to our sunday morning paper review. with me arejoel taylor, deputy news editor at the metro, and broadcaster shyama perera. the dream team. thank you for being with us. let's take a look at the front pages. let's begin with the sunday telegraph and the headline: "may losing grip as party is rocked by resignations". the paper claims two members of the government are resigning over brexit and a cabinet minster is also considering whether to quit. and of course this all comes before the crucial vote in the commons on tuesday. or not. the sunday times, billing an exclusive, says the prime minister is planning to delay the vote. downing street has since denied the claim. the mail on sunday: "back me

or get corbyn and no brexit" says theresa may in an interview with the paper, pleading to tory rebels to get on side. last one on brexit. the observer reports that a deep cabinet split has opened up over whether to hold a second referendum on the brexit deal. the paper also carries a photo of a riot officer at the protests in paris yesterday, under the headline "a city in lockdown" after another weekend of anti—government demonstrations turned violent in france. and in other news the sunday mirror writes that one of the survivors of the sailsbury novichok attacks, charlie rowley, fears the poison is slowly killing him. there we are. the front pages as we have them. let's kick off with the mailon have them. let's kick off with the mail on sunday. back me or get jeremy corbyn and no brexit, says the prime minister. maybe her last newspaper interview before that

commons vote on tuesday if it happens. she has given this interview. it is not a particularly revealing interview. she is saying many of the things that we have heard before. she is saying that if tory mps don't get behind her, then it risks the chance ofjeremy corbyn forming a government. hejust wants a general election for party political reasons. i think we remember that she called a general election for party political reasons once upon a time and it didn't go terribly well. but he is trying to portray herself as continuity, the sta ble portray herself as continuity, the stable prime minister. despite all this chaos around her. it is interesting. and also she is trying to touch on more homely matters. her indulgences, how to get through the long evenings, she might dare to have a spoonful of peanut butter. and splitting the nation, she has

goosed rather than turkey on christmas day. inside with this interview they have got a picture of her at her desk, with a stapler or something that says please do not remove from office. will she be removed from office? yes. ijust wonder now if she will go kicking and screaming or if she will be almost relieved to have done her damnedest to get us there. a lot of what she has put in place may still get through ultimately, not this week. i certainly think she is on very shaky ground and i can say that with some confidence because nobody knows! and everybody has got to view and that is one of the views. i feel very sorry for her at the moment. i just think back me and getjeremy corbyn and no brexit, i don't know what would happen if we did have an election and i don't know if jeremy

know ifjeremy corbyn would get in or if we would have a hung parliament and absolutely nothing happening. it is an interesting time politically. all of the experts and so—called experts really know what will happen. there are all sorts of different scenarios that have been laid out but it is anyone's guess. every scenario, if you follow it, looks terribly unlikely but something will emerge and the only thing we can say with any certainty is that theresa may does not have the numbers for the vote on tuesday. he has over 100 tory mps saying that they will vote against a deal. there are no where near enough labour rebels to support her. it is a bleak time for her. the sunday times have the headline saying that she will hand back brussels, because there is an eu summit on thursday and friday, and the idea that she looks very tough as she tries to give the eu leadership a bit of a kicking and get a better deal, and then on a second vote might get it through.

get a better deal, and then on a second vote might get it throughm indeed just postponed this vote and sees indeed just postponed this vote and sees what happens, but yes. but he is going to emulate margaret thatcher, they say. joe and i were having a fun discussion about this outside and the idea of handbagging. we we re outside and the idea of handbagging. we were saying that with mrs may, she always wears these huge necklaces and battered her handbag. it is always a bad day, the heavier the necklace. the necklace is a form of imprisonment, round her neck, so we should be looking at that. she doesn't want to play to the gallery, so she doesn't want to have big, dramatic handbag moments. but she is having big, handbag moments and they being foisted upon her. you cannot just close your self away and say because i did not wish this it has not happened. i really take my hat

off to her because she is exhausted. she is doing her best. but the thing is, if you ask the person who is bottom of the glass to do their best, you will not have the same result as a person at the top of the class. she needs to have the vote on tuesday and to lose in order to go back to brussels and ask for a better deal. if she had had a vote and lost, then they should say why should we change it? that is the line, this is the deal and there are no other options. it would give her ammunition if she lost. to go back to brussels and say, look, we can't ta ke to brussels and say, look, we can't take this and we need to sort out the backstop deal. however if she loses so spectacularly as is being predicted, it will be a loss with three figures, whether she survives is even a moot point. the u nfortu nate is even a moot point. the unfortunate thing about the sunday times's splash is that it reminds us

of the handbag being mrs thatcher's and every tory prime minister since margaret thatcher has been brought down over europe and it is another hefty weight that is pulling down theresa may. the other story on the front page of the sunday times is that politics is broken so here comes nigel barrage. half of all voters think that british politics is broken and only one in seven think that tory represents the views of the public. this is a yougov poll asking the question whether politics is broken and 48% say yes and only 1196 is broken and 48% say yes and only 11% say that politics is working well. i am sure we could ask that question almost any time and not many people would think that politics is working well.|j many people would think that politics is working well. i think the question is wrong. it is not politics that is broken it is the leadership and that is not the same thing. if you asked the other six out of seven members of the public

they wouldn't know what politics they wouldn't know what politics they wanted in its place and what they wanted in its place and what they like it somebody who can galvanise and pull people together ata time galvanise and pull people together at a time when we so desperately need it. and that is why they feel that politics is broken, i would argue, which is not completely accurate because there are plenty of people struggling within parliament to create a declaration of travel. they are just not confident in the people at the top. we are a very divided country on the issue of europe. it is notjust that politics is broken. the country is very divided. it is a slightly odd headline in a way. politics is broken. i think in many ways the political system is broken and we can see that brexit is all consuming and other issues in society are not being tackled. coming in here today, you literally see tents on the streets, people sleeping in tents, and we are not tackling these things properly. whether nigel farage

offers the fix is another question. politics is broken? that is such a silly, open question. the next headline in the daily telegraph. theresa may losing grip as the party is rocked by resignations. we have been reporting on will quince, a member of the defence secretary's ministerial team. have you ever heard of him? i hadn't. to be brutally honest, i had never heard of him. i wondered if he was a relation of peter quins, a rude mechanical wearing an as's head along with the rest of the government. theresa may losing her grip, yes. the party rocked by resignations, yes. what is the story? i do know will quince and he isa story? i do know will quince and he is a decent fellow and his resignation is not of great significance. but what he isn't is an extremist either side. he is a

moderate tory mp and not the sort of person you would expect to be going out of his way to say am resigning. it is in some ways more damaging for the prime minister. it shows that she has lost their party. someone has moderate and decent as will quince can't stay. if the vote does go ahead, how many votes would she lose buy in your view? go ahead, how many votes would she lose buy in your view?” go ahead, how many votes would she lose buy in your view? i imagine by three figures. i think she would like to bring back another vote and she would like to go back to brussels and we negotiate. i wonder if the defeat is that bad weather she will be able to stay in power. a lot has been made of how the eog section failed to get their 48 letters but i don't think it would be that hard to get 48 letters. —— erg. whether that would gain as any control is another matter. believe

it or not, there is other news other than brexit and there has been more violence in france with more protesting and the headline in the observer is a dramatic picture of a riot policeman firing tear gas. a city in lockdown. notjust paris actually, all over france, the protesting. a fourth weekend in a row. more violence, more arrests, more people taken to hospital.l different type of violence because it is physical. that doesn't mean we can't that here. extraordinary that 8000 police were on the streets. extraordinary that people were stopped before they even got to the place of protest. i thought it was quite interesting that some of the yellow shirts are saying that they think that the police are in fact infiltrating them and deliberately creating the violence to discredit the whole movement. in these days of fa ke the whole movement. in these days of fake news, i think that is quite believable. it is a contrast to what

is happening here. we are so obsessed with one subject but in france they have fuel prices being increased for environmental reasons and it triggers the kind of protests that we do not get here. and 8000 police in parisjust to quell trouble. and across the country almost 90,000 police put out, stopping protests. water cannon that never got permission to be used in london out on the streets and being fired upon demonstrators. what does it mean for emmanuel macron? can he survive all this? yes, i think so. just because there isn't an obvious alternative at the moment. you can see people on the left, the extreme left, and on the extreme right, but when the choice comes at a general election in france and there is an

extremist and moderate, the moderate winds. it is a tricky situation. he said that he came to power that he could take on the streets, and he hasn't. not in the way people expected him to. and this is a very sad story of charlie rowley who was contaminated with another child after the salisbury attack. —— novichok. he is losing his sight and he has got heart trouble and ultimately it could kill him in a few yea rs' ultimately it could kill him in a few years' time. even though he survive, his partner died. and he has also had several strokes and meningitis and now he is struggling to see and to walk and he said he has got less than ten years, he believes. this is particularly sad maybe because he was already vulnerable. for this to happen, it just takes away all hope. but are we going to act on this? does this

story make us want to come down any harder on the powers that be that we are behind it? i don't know. harder on the powers that be that we are behind it? i don't knowm harder on the powers that be that we are behind it? i don't know. it is hard. what can we do? the thing that strikes me isjust how mundane it is. he got a present for his girlfriend. she rubbed the perfume on her wrists, something that happens in households up and down the land, and get something so tragic happens. really painful. and the effect of these things disappear from the headlines that actually people have got to live with the terrible effects. he said i feel like a guinea pig because he is one of the few people to have survived a novichok attack. but interestingly, what are the other long—term effects ? what are the other long—term effects? i think they are in a safe house, yulia skripal, and we can't hear about them. and this is an

interesting story in the telegraph. the national health service are getting rid of fax machines which i thought i disappeared already. getting rid of fax machines which i thought i disappeared alreadylj getting rid of fax machines which i thought i disappeared already. i was trying to think when the last time was that i used a fax machine and i think it was 15 or 16 years ago. but the nhs remains the world's biggest fax machine bio. so they are still buying them? apparently so. that was the report earlier this year. they are going to ban the hospital trusts when buying fax machines and they wa nt to when buying fax machines and they want to phase them out completely by april 2020 and the only thing i think we should be hesitant of is that we have seen what the nhs is like with it systems. emails and databases, things like with it systems. emails and data bases, things get lost like with it systems. emails and databases, things get lost and vanish, and at least a fax machine might actually work. if you ban something like a fax machine, you have got to have something to replace it in place. and if you are in the middle of doing something, you don't want to run to your computer to find the email and print

it out. it is probably easier if someone over there can it out. it is probably easier if someone over there can pick up the pages from a fax machine can hand them to you or read them to you while you are in the middle of doing something, rather than having to go and find it. in a personal email, which you might not want to give somebody else access to. there may bea somebody else access to. there may be a logical reason. perhaps i am being foolish here but presumably there is a logical reason for the nhs still needing to use fax machines. and some others do occasionally need all the technology for whatever reason. do you still have a fax machine? i don't! when was the last time you used a fax machine? 15 years ago? that is what lam trying machine? 15 years ago? that is what i am trying to remember. i can see that they are useful for sending documents. i remember why a copy coming down from the old bailey. and they are not dependent on your broadband connection. thank you very

much for talking to us about fax machines, brexit and much else besides. that is it for the papers. we will be back with another addition later on. you can see this online on the bbc news website seven days a week. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can see it later on the bbc iplayer. our thanks to our guests and now the weather. hello. after some windy and wet weather to start the day across the southern half of the uk, things are improving. sunshine, lighter winds might wear that turning colder as we go through the day. the showery weather, stronger winds, pushing into northern france now and then we open the door to the northerly air flow bringing chilly conditions with it. that weather will try to hold on through the week but there is mild where in the south—west trying to

fight back. many of you will see some sunshine but there will be further showers in northern scotland falling as snow over the hill quite easily, especially with temperatures at lower levels down to four. in southern and eastern areas we could see dry and sunny conditions throughout. some rain in northern ireland and sunshine in between, the same in west wales, snowdonia, parts of the midlands, but for the rest of england and wales, after showers and strong winds this morning, breezy along the coasts, but much brighter and temperatures up to around 11 or 12. tonight showers continue for a time in northern ireland and they put into northern england and the north west midlands but away from that, most will have a dry night. the colours indicate temperatures freezing or below. the touch of frost is possible anywhere across central and eastern england and maybe in some sheltered spots towards the west. we start the day

dry and bright but chilly and with the morning commute tomorrow, some showers in the morning in the west midlands and dumfries and galloway. increase cloud in parts of south—west england, wales and northern ireland, with some spots of rain possible. sunshine at best in the afternoon in eastern areas but feeling quite chilly with temperatures across devon and cornwall up to 12. and this is the battle between the mild air trying to work its way in from the atlantic and the cold air holding on for many. the cold air is heavier than mild there, so more difficult to shift out of the way. it could be a painful process for many this week. a frosty start quite widely with areas of cloud meandering around and light winds. some sunshine breaking through the cloud and rain holding off to the west to begin with. it will push them through the week proceeded bytes note, particularly on thursday and friday. —— proceeded by snow. we will keep you updated. this is bbc news.
