9:32 am
with their female idols on the back of their shirts. half an hour in, and the real megan rapinoe was writing her name on the scoresheet, leaving the england goalkeeper rooted to the spot. when you are trying to be world number one, you need a leader. step up captain steph houghton with a sublime equaliser. what an equaliser, and really well played. well worked, that! england were finding theirfeet, and nikita parris was finding her range. this put the lionesses ahead. what a very good goal, and in the lead against the world champions. but the problem with the champions is you can never write them off, and while scrappy, they were eventually able to find a way through england's defence to deny them the win. we had fantastic performances out there on the pitch today. we had players that played with a smile on their face, and like i say, the result is irrelevant to us on the pitch. not irrelevant to the competition, though. well, this result means
9:33 am
that the lionesses can now fly off to sunny florida in the knowledge that a win againstjapan will seal the trophy. perhaps it really is their time to believe. jo currie, bbc news, nashville. manchester city returned to the top of the premier league after beating bournemouth 1—0. riyad mahrez scored the only goal of the game, enough to seal victory for city, who put pressure back on liverpool, with nine matches to play. liverpool play rivals everton in the merseyside derby later today... we made one of the best performances we have played. so they are incredible players, and we defend so well. all the aspects, the throw—ins, the free kicks, the corners. so i just can say thank you to the players, because they are absolutely incredible. at old trafford, manchester united and southampton had their own competion for goal of the month. first, yan valery thundered southampton into the lead with an absolute cracker.
9:34 am
andreas pereira arguably went one better to equalise for united in the second half, and romelu lukaku won it with this finish two minutes from time. united winning 3—2 and moving above arsenal and into the top four. that's because arsenal could only draw with tottenham in the north london derby... but they were so close to winning it. pierre—emerick aubameyang missing a penalty in the last minute at wembley. there were wins elsewhere yesterday for west ham, crystal palace, brighton and wolves. neil lennon's winning start as celtic manager continued against his former club hibernian in the quarterfinals of the scottish cup. after a goal—less first half, james forrest set the game alight with this brilliant solo goal from outside the box. the draw for the semi—finals takes place tomorrow.
9:35 am
england captain eoin morgan says his side need to be better at adapting to different conditions after a humbling defeat to west indies in the final one dayer. after reaching over 400 on wednesday, england were bowled out forjust 113 in st lucia — a wake up call in world cup year as patrick gearey reports. byjuly, the odds say these men may be world champions. here was a reminder that there is nothing definite about being a favourite. this was the sound of england returning to earth. bowled him! sheldon cottrell prompted the first changing of the guard but english batsmen remained at ease, joe root among many who flew too close to the st lucia sun. the margin between being fearless and being careless is small but crucial — this is what happens when you are caught the wrong side of the line. a team that scored a18 in its last match, dismantled for 113. west indies opener chris gayle looked as though he had somewhere to be. this would be his last one—day innings on these islands —
9:36 am
he retires after the world cup, so he released his greatest hits. banger after banger, 77 runs in 27 balls. we will never see another quite like him. when he was out, others grabbed the batting baton, west indies reaching their target in little more than an hour of power. series drawn, england have been warned. patrick gearey, bbc news. roger federer has set another landmark in his amazing career by winning his 100th title on the atp tour, only the second man in history to do that. the 20 time grand slam winner beat stefanos sit—sipas in straight sets at the dubai tennis championships. jimmy connors, who won 109 titles, is the only other male player to reach the milestone. so does federer now have his sights set on passing that record? — — stefa nos —— stefanos tsitsipas. people are probably going to say, now you have to reach jimmy connors‘s record, you know. but i'm not that kind of a guy even though people might think i am. i draw inspiration from it, but i'm not here to shatter
9:37 am
every record out there. and he's a special player, and a special legend in the sport, and if he keeps that record, it's all good. i'm just happy to have reached 100 in my career. that's all the sport for now. now on bbc news, here's ben with the papers. hello and welcome to our look at the stories making the sunday papers. with me are the sun on sunday's political editor david wooding and the businessjournalistjohn crowley. the morning's front pages... the mail on sunday reports on the murder of 17—year—old jodie chesney — who was stabbed to death in a park in east london. she's the 18th victim of homicide in the capital this year. the express says the 17—year—old
9:38 am
was a model student and a scout with a bright future. the sunday times reports that leading conservative brexiteers are willing to back the prime minister's deal with the eu within days if its passes three tests drawn up by the european research group and the democratic unionist party. the telegraph leads on what it calls a major shake—up in the laws surrounding non—disclosure agreements. according to the paper, the government plans to ban employers from drawing up gagging orders that prevent staff reporting cases of discrimination and harassment to the police. the observer leads on a new row within labour. the paper says ‘higher—ups' in the party have rejected recommendations to suspend officials accused of anti—semitism. and, the independent has a poll which says labour voters in leave areas overwhelming back jeremey corbyn‘s decision to back another brexit referendum. so let's begin... just a flavour of the sunday papers. let's begin with the terrible
9:39 am
situation with knife crime in this country, highlighted by the death of the 17—year—old girl. as if it was not horrific enough, a picture of her a few months ago. 0utside number 10 downing st. that picture, she features on the front page of almost every paper this morning, that picture drives home the difference about this story. she was not involved in gang warfare in anyway, shape orform, involved in gang warfare in anyway, shape or form, just sitting in a pa rt shape or form, just sitting in a part ina shape or form, just sitting in a part in a nice part of essex, when a gang of five or six balaclava youths came along, we don't know the full details but she was brutally stabbed in the back and as you say, there have been 18 knife murders in the capital this year but she is the 65th teenager to be killed in london in violence. knife crime is a story thatis in violence. knife crime is a story that is running on and on and the home secretary and london mayor, sadiq khan, has got get to to grips
9:40 am
with it. how do they get to grips with it. how do they get to grips with it, john? there is a national crisis, think of their intellectual energy expended on brexit, we are talking about it in a second, but we need to do something about this. it isn't a quick and easy fix, police office rs isn't a quick and easy fix, police officers are down by 20,000 from ten years ago, stop and search, at 1.5 million is down to 100,000. are they key fa cto rs ? million is down to 100,000. are they key factors? there are a number of factors, there is austerity and less money in outreach groups, your paper has been talking about campaigns in schools and dealing with people being excluded and we need to bring government, police, teachers, community outreach people, together to try to figure out what is going oi'i. to try to figure out what is going on. there are youtube videos extolling the nature of this crime, we need to get to grips with this.
9:41 am
yesterday, there was someone on the bbc saying that you need to have a cobra meeting, almost. where the cabinet comes together to talk about issues surrounding terror, we need to deal with this. her picture is on many of the front pages but it is prominent on the mail on sunday. a similar headline, about her killed with a knife in her back. there is a situation where a lot of young people, especially ones in gangs, are going out with knives to defend themselves. as well as to attack. that is alarming. yes, and that message will be driven home. and among some it is a fashion a ccesso i’y. among some it is a fashion accessory. carrying a knife makes you more susceptible to knife crime rather than safer. but it is very difficult, when kids are reading and hearing about attacks like this,
9:42 am
there is a two pronged assault on this that's required. 0ne there is a two pronged assault on this that's required. one is tackling the root causes, our campaign, the beat the blades campaign, the beat the blades campaign, this was planned before this even happened. we have the task forces and we are calling for more money in youth projects and dealing with the things that could lead to knife crime but it is an urgent crisis. it needs to be dealt with 110w crisis. it needs to be dealt with now to stop this. we had about reason may, when she was home secretary, cutting back on stop and search because it targeted... ethnic minorities. and would you like to see stop and search back in full, as it was? if you are stopping people and taking knives of people by stop and taking knives of people by stop and search, the question is, is that price worth paying? even if you escalate tensions? it is not an easy
9:43 am
fix but we need to look at this right now. there are a lot of platitudes from politicians saying we need to do something about it, well we need to do more than that. i would commend your campaign on this. sajid javid has brought in knife crime prevention, for knife offenders, if you like, so young people can have this slapped on them to stop them from carrying knives but it brings trouble. the joint committee on human rights, hears and mps, it's a difficult area to try and bring in measures that would be accepted. as you said, the national focus at the moment is very much on brexit, arguably a distraction. we have this story in the sunday times, about brexiteer s today, a key vote on the prime minister's deal looming. is that a sense that, perhaps, unlikely as it may seem,
9:44 am
that she is going to squeak a deal over the line? some of the brexiteer sin over the line? some of the brexiteer s in the tory party are fracturing? there are 1 million versions of rack set, it seems, as the sunday times says, that compromises in the air. they have come together and this splash is about them changing the current agreement and this is to do with the backstop and northern ireland. we discussed it earlier. it does not come out with anything new. but it does seem that theresa may is allowing this group of people to come inside the tent and drive the government's conversation around it. you have your ear close to the ground in westminster. do you think people like jacob rees—mogg could come over to the prime minister's? he has made a million sounds in the
9:45 am
last you days and speaking to members of the block, eurosceptics against the deal, they seem to be signalling that if he comes back with an assurance, a legally binding assurance, that the backstop will not be open—ended, then they might go for it. the clock is running downfall of them and the fact is that now, in politics, the most important thing is numbers and if there's deal is voted out again, they will not get through a no deal and most likely they will vote for and most likely they will vote for an extension of article 50 which would put brexit at risk. will the eu give that assurance? michel barnier gave an interview yesterday in germany where he said he is mindful to give the assurances and guarantees that we are looking for, whether it is legally binding it's another matter but he's making the
9:46 am
right noises. geoffrey cox is working hard to broker a deal. and what is interesting is that, in europe, germany is on the edge of a recession. that may concentrate minds as well. there are various reasons as to why they are in trouble, with trade rules between the us and china but they are the third biggest exporter in the world and the chinese are not buying as many ca rs and the chinese are not buying as many cars as they have done in the past. i think you are getting into a phase now at the 11th hour where people are beginning to give a little on both sides. that was theresa may's gamble, why she was allegedly running down the clock. the delay to break set is unavoidable according to the sunday telegraph. it still has to be delayed to make it happen?m telegraph. it still has to be delayed to make it happen? it is a technical expansion, even if the deal is done next week, in ten days'
9:47 am
time, the chances are, we will not get the legislation through parliament in time for much the 29th so there will be a need for a short delay after that. even the hardline brexiteers would agree. there's a difference between a technical delay ofa difference between a technical delay of a few weeks or a political delay of a few weeks or a political delay of months. if there is a delay because they cannot reach a deal, this no deal has apparently been taken this no deal has apparently been ta ke n off this no deal has apparently been taken off the table by parliament, that was their negotiating gambit, i think if a deal is done, i think everyone both in the uk and in europe would accept a little delay. lets move on to another story, the main story in the telegraph, a ban on the gagging orders that stop reports to the police. these ndas
9:48 am
are controversial. they are controversial, not least with philip green but also abroad with harvey weinstein. the government will outline tomorrow how to stop misuse of ndas. it is fine to use them for keeping trade secrets and confidential information if someone leaves the company to work elsewhere, that is acceptable but what isn't is then being used to cover up what isn't is then being used to cover up illegal behaviour by senior executives in the company —like racism or homophobia, bullying or intimidation, discrimination, sexual harassment, groping, whatever. buying them off? sir philip green is alleged to have paid seven figure sums to his staff, all well and good if you're happy for that to be covered up and you want the money but in future you can still go to
9:49 am
the police and report illegal activity. if you think across corporate culture how many ndas have been signed in all stratus of society and whether they can tear these up, this could potentially be a really big story. it will be interesting to see the detail and how much power people will have to go back and reopen ndas. how much power people will have to go back and reopen ndasi how much power people will have to go back and reopen ndas. i should stress that sir philip green has denied any accusations of wrongdoing. let's go over to the 0bserver. they have the anti—semitism story, the labour party facing a new round of efforts to curb anti—semitism. tell us more on that. jeremy corbyn is handling the anti—semitism problem in his party as well as theresa may is handling brexit. it remains to be seen whether he will clear it up by march the 29th. what we have here,
9:50 am
some allegations of correspondence emerge into the observer from some allegations of correspondence emerge into the observerfrom march and may last year which show at a time the labour leaderjeremy corbyn had fouled anti—tolerance for anti—semites in the party. the general secretary had made recommendations following investigations and andrew murray, jeremy corbyn's advisor and former communist, had made a call for more lenient action against some offenders. it raises the question is how well their intentions to tackle this r. will we see more labour mps defecting or leaving the labour party as a result? if this continues to happen the answer would be, yes. if labour had been accused of racism against any other ethnic minority, they would have dealt with this by now. you would think, yes. that's the question. the big question that
9:51 am
remains. why have they not dealt with this? apparently they have brought in tony blair's former flatmate to deal with this but charlie falconer tells them, i haven't agreed the terms yet and they've already announced him. it is a party that is at war with itself and a complete mess. people looking in say, you are not grasping the matter on anti—semitism and dealing with it. it has been rumbling for a couple of years. that's my point, do you think the labour party have dealt with this, they could have dealt with this, they could have dealt with this more quickly. tony blair, gordon brown, ed miliband, it has happened since then. tom watson, the deputy leader, is becoming increasingly vocal about this. he has had a clash withjennie formby. that would not have happened without
9:52 am
jeremy corbyn's say so. the sunday mirror have a follow—up to the salisbury novichok attack. the son of the woman who died from novichok poisoning, dawn sturgess, is asking russia to give up the men responsible for the attack. that is not going to happen? tomorrow will bea not going to happen? tomorrow will be a year to the day since the attack happened on sergei skripal and yulia skripal, it is hard to believe it has gone on so quickly but this poor man is still fighting forjustice over what but this poor man is still fighting for justice over what happened but this poor man is still fighting forjustice over what happened to dawn. it was the two men, they were announced in the paper about six months ago, where they were shown on cctv and it seems this poor man will not getjustice. putin is not going to give these guys up anytime soon.
9:53 am
and in the telegraph, university loa ns and in the telegraph, university loans being blocked if a—level stu d e nts loans being blocked if a—level students fail to get three d plant. i never would have got to university if this had been there! i got a a and two bs. i got to the polytechnic of life. people going to universities with lifestyle students, they go on mickey mouse courses. 0ther students, they go on mickey mouse courses. other people will say, is this closing down greater access to university? the fact is, £2.2
9:54 am
trillion in debt over the next 20 yea rs, trillion in debt over the next 20 years, something has to be done to cover these costs. a lot of students never pay back their loans. you have to earn a certain amount of money before you pay about, some people go abroad after and do not pay it back. when i was doing mine, there were some older students in their mid—20s who were still doing a—levels or courses. i'm not saying everyone is like that. how did you get on with yours? so-so! no comment! no comment, idid yours? so-so! no comment! no comment, i did get more than three ds. you can argue that you do not flourish until you get university so you may have had bad a—level results. at university, where you get to shine, where doctor like you
9:55 am
did! if you get less than ds, should you go to university? perhaps not. why should it be the top students? lowe you are specialising in a subject in excellence. should university be open for everyone? is that the right path to go down? may be we have tried to remove elitism too much. too many people go to university, perhaps. we aren't all cut out for it. i did a vocational course to become a journalist because i thought that was right for me. that turned out all right! so they say. but it has become a message here that everyone needs to go to university. they wanted to get 50% of people to university but that is not right for everyone. those are the thoughts of the day! thank you
9:56 am
very much indeed for being with us. that's all for today, goodbye from us. thank you very much. hello there. we have seen rain across many parts of the uk but the winds are really going to pick up this afternoon across england and wales. all because of storm freya. hidden underneath all that cloud is a deepening area of low pressure. the wind is continuing to strengthen and rain is moving northwards. we have seen the strongest winds in the northern half of scotland, easing down a bit. the shower is becoming fewer with more sunshine but the rain is heavy at times, pushing up towards the borders and into parts of northern ireland. behind it, things drying off in wales and in the south—west of england. temperatures at 12 or 13 degrees. by this stage, the winds will not be as
