of in the report about the amount of discontents, the amount of broken promises. i want to give you one stat onjobs, the big issue here, because india's railway ministry advertised for 100,000 jobs last month and they got 20 million applications. that gives you a sense of the pressure on jobs. also there have been reforms, you remember demon ticeation and they got rid o tax. there is plenty of opposition. but most people expect that narendra modi will win, but not with that landslide of last time. thank you. here's tomasz schafernaker. it is difficult to call the weather today. here is a beautiful picture. where that is from? this is suffolk.

stunning weather there in east anglia, the midlands and northern england. but in other parts, this is wales and in the south, it has been overcast with drizzle. it is all or nothing today and later on this afternoon some heavy showers will develop across parts of midlands and they will be hit and miss, so the situation where one town or city gets a down pour and you drive 20 miles down the road and there is nothing. there is this area of cloud. most of that is hazy skies. some of the clouds will be developing over the coming hours to produce down pour. you see a lot of green land where the sun is. where the sun is prolonged, ifeels spectacular with temperatures up to 19 celsius around merseyside. tonight, where we have the clear skies, it will be nippy. so the

contrast from the high teens. still some showers continuing. 0n contrast from the high teens. still some showers continuing. on tuesday, notice this is the jet stream driving weather systems. there is not a lot happening us with, apart from a stubborn area of cloud and rain and the odd down pour possible in the south. the vast majority of uk tomorrow doing beautiful and in london the weather shouldn't be bad in the afternoon. but the temperatures are going to be dropping in the coming days and the reason is because the winds will be coming in from the east and in fact not quite the east, they maybe easterly around the uk, but the air has come from northern scandinavia. you can imagine the air is cold coming from sweden and norway. it does mean that wednesday, thursday and friday, with that easterly wind it is going to feel chilly on the

the north sea coasts. this time of the north sea coasts. this time of the year, the sun is strong, the strong as the end of the summer, no nine degrees in the shade will feel nippy, but in the sunshine i think if you're out of breeze it shouldn't feel too bad. the weather is settling down on thursday and friday. we are not expecting any rain. we have the showers today and tomorrow, but after that it is colder, but it is dry and bright. thank you. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. good afternoon. i'm azi farni here with your latest sports news. after watford's stunning win over wolves in the fa cup semi final yesterday,

goalkeeper ben foster says he would refuse to play in the final against manchetser city if asked. foster is watford's number one keeper, but it's veteran huerelho gomes, who has played in every fa cup match so far this season, including yesterday's dramatic 3—2 extra—time, win, where gerard deulofeu scored the winner. foster says the brazilian deserves his place in the final and should play without a doubt. gomez is expected to retire at the end of the season. it's about a group, about 18. he understands the game, and if he needs me, i'm going to be there. if not,... chelsea will leapfrog arsenal into fourth place in the premier league if they avoid defeat at home to west ham tonight.. west ham haven't won a league match at stamford bridge since 2002 but chelsea manager maurizio isn't expecting an easy game.

they are really a very dangerous tea m they are really a very dangerous team because in the season they were not able to have consistency. but they are a team with high quality, and so in the single match, they can be very dangerous. it's a difficult match. england skipper steph horeton will miss tuesday's world cup warm—up match against spain because of a groin injury. horeton will be one of several changes for head coach phil neville, after england's1—0 defeat to canada on friday. england play further friendlies aginst denmark and new zealand, before their first world cup group game against scotland on the 9th ofjune. barry middleton has announced his retirement from international hockey. middleton is great britain and england hockey's most capped player, having played 432 times and scored 119 goals. he played in four olympic games, four world cups, eight european championships and four commonwealth games.

it's been amazing for me to play hockey in so many places, make so many friends, and go to tournaments. i think if you have to pick a couple out, it is obviously winning something was massive for us as a company, in that group that did that in 2009. it was a special feeling. and then for me, london and the hague world cup that we had were both really special personally, because they were home tournaments, really, for me. brazil's italo ferreira and usa's caroline marks moved to the top of the world surfing league rankings after their victories on the gold coast. it was the first time equal prize money was given to both the men's and women's events. 17 year old marks pipped her idol, the former three time world champion carissa moore, to first place for her maiden tour victory. this is only her second year on the elite wsl championship tour.

while in the men's final, ferreira had to fight until the last minute against the usa's kolohe andino to take the title and the number one world ranking. both surfers picked up 100 thousand dollars. now we've seen some very bad misses in football down the years. this one might be the best — or worst — yet. it is in a ligue un match where psg had the chance to wrap up the title nice and early. now the shot was going in until fomer stoke forward erik chupo motting somehow manages to stop the ball crossing the line. we're talking not a yard or two but inches. he literallyjust had to not touch the ball and it would have been the winning goal. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website.

more now on online safety, and specifically the news that apps and websites that do not protect their users could be fined or blocked under new internet safety rules. under government proposals, bosses could be held responsible for sites failing to tackle terrorist propaganda and child abuse. the culture secretaryjeremy wright spoke to bbc news earlier. it seems to me reasonable at least to consider whether individual directors at the top of these organisations shouldn't be asked to ta ke organisations shouldn't be asked to take responsibility for what their companies are 01’ are take responsibility for what their companies are or are not doing. in the end, it will be for the regulator to decide that. we are consulting on giving the regulator the broadest range of options so they can act as they think fit. earlier, my colleague lu kwesa burak spoke to the children's commissioner for england — anne longfield. i'm really pleased. these are issues i have been raising for a number of

years now, and i have been putting forward the idea of having a duty of care. it would really make it clear that, with the power that we know social media companies now have in all our lives, there comes responsibility, and especially so for the most vulnerable, children. it is something i have been urging government to be decisive and bold about, and whilst i haven't seen all the detail yet, at this stage, i think it is something that is tourists that is be welcomed. for a lot of people, it doesn't happen to them but to other people's children. just how bad is it? there is a gradation. on a day—to—day level, any child that goes on there could see the kind of content that pops up that you wouldn't want them to see, but then there are some very serious instances where those who are seeking out children can find places to do it. the internet wasn't designed

for children, but they are some of the biggest users. for the first ten years, it has been largely unregulated, it has happened fast, and children are at the forefront of that. this is an opportunity to pause, look at how to make it a place that children and their parents can be more confident in. i want to go on to the penalties in a moment, but we are hearing that the uk could be a world pioneer if this scheme is implemented, but like you say, kids are operating within an adult environment. what will it take to ensure that this scheme is successful? i think the first point is, of course, i want to be kind of very kind of decisive, penalties here, i want them to be meaningful and for the regulator to have teeth — all of those things. but the first thing is to understand that built into the design of so many platforms is this addictive quality, and that

is something that is part of the business model to keep us online. we all find ourselves doing that, but as adults, we are old enough and hopefully have enough experience to be able to notice when that is happening. for children, that is not the case, and we know that very young children are now spending hours and hours online. so there is something about changing the design and putting safety as a core within the design in a way that overrides any concern about possible kind of damage to profits. it is about rebalancing who is in control. it has been the companies but now it has to be the user. what about the argument that this will amount to censorship and freedom of speech — what is your reaction? we have a duty of care. we are the adults and we have to take responsibility. you wouldn't think twice about newspapers that showed

graphic images about self—harm and the like, being able to go into a supermarket and give those away, the place would be closed down overnight. it is time to rebalance so that we can all be confident in this new entity in all our lives. as indians head to the polls this week, one of the election pledges by prime minister narendra modi was to clean the ganges by 2020. it has been a priority for the government but the deadline has been extended and the costs have gone up. bbc hindi's nitin srivastav travelled thousands of kilometres to take stock of the efforts so far. a glacier in the himalayas, the origin of the ganges, a source of life for millions. you can see the crystal clear water

running down the hills in northern india. 0nce known as the manchester of the east, this industrial city was used by the british in the 19th century. waste and sewage has flowed into the river unchecked since then, affecting thousands of people who live on the river's banks. translation: there isn't a single soul in this village who isn't suffering from skin disease due to water contamination. the problem is, we can't survive without water. hundreds of leather factories in this region have either been relocated or shut down to stop chemical waste entering the river. but it's not been enough. you can see freshly cleaned washed hide skin that was cleaned overnight in the tanneries in the area, and then the chemical

finds its way into the river ganges via this drain. there is a massive stench in the area. our next stop. the ganges is considered holy by millions of hindus. india's prime minister modi promised to clean it when he was elected. in 2015, he committed $3 billion to a five—year project to clean the ganges by 2020. however, locals here aren't optimistic. translation: people spit wherever they want and throw garbage in the river. i don't think pollution will ever be tackled properly. government efforts to clean the river are visible all along this stretch, but clearly more needs to be done. the story is the same as everywhere.

dozens of such poluuted sewage drains coming out of a city of millions and merging into the river. of course, along with idols of hindus gods and goddesses, liquor bottles and plastic bottles. by the time it reaches west bengal, which borders bangladesh, huge deposits of silt and waste have entered the river. we met a family who recently lost a member due to contaminated river water. translation: my daughter-in-law was on medication for two years but lost the battle. there was a high amount of arsenic in the river and ground water and the damage to her skin and body was immense. there is no denying cleaning up this river is a monumental task. as india heads into another election, this issue will continue

to dominate the campaign. a campaign is being launched to raise awareness of a system to help people alert the police if they're in danger but unable to speak. the silent solution system, prompts the caller on a mobile to press 5—5 if they call 999 and can't talk to the call handler. peter cooke reports. just one of the 20,000 silent calls made to 999 in the uk every day. but many callers using a mobile are unaware of a system to inform police, without speaking, that they might be in danger. it enables someone who is too scared to make a noise or speak to press 55 when prompted. the system has been operating in the uk since 2002, but officials say it's not widely

known to the public. the prompts, the questions and the automated system allow that filter to take place, to make sure that when you do press 55, it's when you're in danger, when you've got a real need, that you will get that response that you need as a priority. today's campaign is being launched during national stalking awareness week. it is being supported by the family of murder victim kerry power. she was strangled by her former partner david wilder at her home in plymouth in 2013. her death led to calls for the system to be reviewed, as she may have been misinformed about what happened during a silent call. hello, metropolitan police, what's your emergency? it's hoped a wider understanding of how the system works could potentially save lives in the future. we've been discussing london's attempt to stop the worst polluting vehicles from being used in the city.

but there is an alternative to petrol and diesel fuel. the world's longest electric car road—trip has just come to an end in sydney, australia. tim allman has more. when you have been on a long journey, this must be quite a sight. a convoy of electric cars crossing the sydney harbour bridge. leading the way, the blue bandit, a vehicle that just keeps going and going and going. i want to do my bit to promote this technology and do something which really speaks to the imagination, which is driving an electric car from amsterdam to literally the other side of the world, to show it can be done, and if we can do that, why can we not use electric vehicles for daily use? # 0n the road again... #. the scale of this trip was immense. he travelled more than 95,000 kilometres, twice the circumference

of the earth. he visited 33 countries in a journey that lasted more than three years. along the way, he relied on the kindness of strangers, who offered him food, shelter and the occasional use of an electrical socket. quite a journey, quite a car. but one imagines the trip home is likely to be a lot quicker. tim allman, bbc news. in a moment, we'll have all the business news, but first, the headlines on bbc news: 00v)social media companies could see their services blocked — and senior managers held personally liable — under new government plans designed to safeguard people using the internet. 00v)social media companies could see their services blocked — theresa may will go to berlin and paris tomorrow to hold talks on brexit —

a deal with labour remains work in progress a new pollution charge begins in london, with drivers of older, dirtier vehicles paying more. in the business news: retail tycoon mike ashley, who has tabled a rescue bid for store chain debenhams, has accused its executives of "a sustained programme of falsehoods and denials". he's now urged them to take a lie detector test and called for an investigation. mr ashley has offered to inject £150 million into the ailing department store chain, in return for being appointed chief executive. mr ghosn is gone. nissan shareholders have voted to oust the company's former boss carlos ghosn from its board, officially ending his relationship with the firm he rescued from near bankruptcy 20 years ago. mr ghosn was re—arrested in tokyo last week over claims of financial misconduct. business optimism is at its lowest level since 2012

over ongoing concerns over brexit, according to new research. the biggest falls were amongst service sector firms. other recent figures have suggested business output was growing, but analysts suggest that's simply because more firms are stockpiling supplies ahead of the uk's departure from the eu. so, mrghosn has so, mr ghosn has gone, removed from the board of nissan by its shareholders. it was a three-hour meeting today of some 4000 people. it was hardly a surprise. mr ghosn has been arrested several times, most recently last week, all in connection with allegations of financial misconduct, which he contests. he was sacked as chairman in november. former right—hand man greg kelly is also out. i knew

interim chairman has been appointed. mrghosn is no interim chairman has been appointed. mr ghosn is no ordinary chairman. since 1999, he has been the driving force betide the alliance between nissan and renault. rupert wingfield hayes told us earlier that this was the first opportunity that this and had to act over mr ghosn. this is very much as was expected, so this was the first chance that this and has had to get carlos ghosn off the board of directors since his arrest last november. even while he has been held in prison and charged with various financial misdeeds, he has remained on the board of directors. last month, while out on bail, he attempted to take part in a previous

board of directors meeting at nissan's headquarters. he was not allowed to do that, but clearly nissan wanted to have this extraordinary meeting with shareholders today in order to remove mr ghosn from his last official position at the company that he headed for around 20 years. it has gone ahead and the shareholders have voted to do so, and they have voted to replace mr ghosn on the board of directors with the ceo of renault, a powerful figure from renault remaining on the board at nissan. as people have said, mrghosn is board at nissan. as people have said, mr ghosn is gone. the interesting thing is not only how it is playing out in terms of business but also in terms of politics. there isa but also in terms of politics. there is a lot of politics surrounding this whole case, notjust the criminal case against mr ghosn, but the relationship between renault and nissan. behind the criminal case,

there is the struggle, if you like, and we are not seeing it out in the open, but there is a quiet sort of tussle or tug of war for control, who is going to run nissan in the future. mr ghosn much dominated nissan for 20 years. it is very clear from people talking nissan for 20 years. it is very clearfrom people talking off nissan for 20 years. it is very clear from people talking off the record that that most deeply resented inside nissan, and that is pa rt resented inside nissan, and that is part of the reason why they have sought to get rid of him. but now, there is a desire by some people inside nissan, we understand, to see more control seeded from the french effect of ownership, with renault owning 43% of the japanese company. there is a quietjostling going on behind closed doors as to how this relationship will work in the future. publicly, both sides say they are committed to this alliance and have renewed that commitment today. of course, as this plays out, mrghosn is today. of course, as this plays out, mr ghosn is back in prison after

being rearrested. yes, he was taken back into custody last week and he was extremely angry about that, releasing a statement saying it was outrageous. 0ver releasing a statement saying it was outrageous. over the weekend, we had from his wife, who apparentlyjumped ona from his wife, who apparentlyjumped on a plane last week because police when they went into take her husband also took her mobile phone, her la ptop also took her mobile phone, her laptop and said they wanted to question her as well. she took fright at that, said she didn't feel safe in japan. she fright at that, said she didn't feel safe injapan. she got escorted to the airport by the ambassador from france and is now back in france where prosecutors will not be able to get hold of her. rupert wingfield hayes reporting. in other business stories we've been following, oil prices have climbed to their highest level since november last year with brent futures topping $70 a barrel this morning. the price has been driven up by cuts from the cartel 0pec as well as us sanctions against iran and venezuela, and strong usjobs data.

cho yang ho, the former chairman of korean air, has died in the united states, aged 70. he remained chairman of korean air, even after shareholders ousted him following charges of embezzlement and tax evasion. his eldest daughter generated international headlines after a so—called nut rage incident, demanding the plane return to the gate as it taxied because of the way the cabin crew had served her nuts. kpmg is planning to overhaul its british business to create an independent audit firm, according to the times this morning. kpmg's audit practice has 200 partners and about 5000 staff, and the paper said it had nothing to do with any decision by the competition regulator to force a break—up of the big four accounting firms. the ftse has not moved much. if you

remember, first night had a 20% drop after a big fire at a warehouse, and they have recovered that. the pound looking a bit weak against the euro. in the oil prices at $70.7 per now, time for a look at the weather. quite big contrasts at the moment. southern parts of the uk have been so southern parts of the uk have been so far quite cloudy, at least here in there, with spots of rain, but in the north, a case of clear blue skies. let me show you the satellite image. this is the area where we have the thickest cloud. look at all that sunshine — east anglia, the north midlands, merseyside, the lake district, scotland and northern ireland. not a cloud in the sky, and temperatures are nudging up to around 18 celsius in one or two spots. around the midlands later

this afternoon, we will see showers developing, some of them pretty heavy. there could be thunder. showers may continue into tonight in southern areas, so there could be heavy rain splashing against your windows through the night. in the north, clear skies, windows through the night. in the north, clearskies, quite cold, windows through the night. in the north, clear skies, quite cold, for celsius in newcastle. a decent afternoon, and then the night will turn quite cold. tuesday's forecast, we have the jet stream to the south, so we have the jet stream to the south, so that is where the weather fronts are going. this is one of the reasons why we are going. this is one of the reasons why we are are going. this is one of the reasons why we are seeing that cloud and rain activity, because the jet strea m and rain activity, because the jet stream is to the south of us. for a change, the north is where the clear blue skies are. if you look at the south coast, the rainjust blue skies are. if you look at the south coast, the rain just hugging that coastal area. cloud and rain. the rest of the country, it really isa the rest of the country, it really is a lovely day. it is turning cold. notice what happens from tuesday into wednesday — winds coming from

the east. they are not easterly but north—easterly, originating in scandinavia, so cold air will arrive on our shores, and it looks as though by the time we get to certainly thursday or friday, it will feel very nippy in eastern areas. in this sort of weather situation, where the winds blow from the north—east, we tend to get dry weather and sunny skies. at least you have got the sunshine in spite of the low temperatures. the further west you are, the better the weather was going to be. and the dry weather in that north—easterly from scandinavia continues. thursday, no rain in the forecast for major cities, the same for friday. temperatures will be dipping away. some places struggling to mates to matt -- some places struggling to mates to matt —— to make 7—9dc by the end of the week. goodbye.

hello, you're watching afternoon live — i'm simon mccoy. today at 2pm. internet sites carrying harmful content — including child abuse and terrorist propaganda — could be blocked orfined, under new government plans. to many social media firms still seem to think that they can get away with providing the service without providing the protection for users. theresa may sits down with her cabinet, 24 hours before she heads for talks in france and germany — whilst tory pro—brexit mps plot another vote of no confidence in her leadership. a new pollution charge begins in london — drivers of older, dirtier vehicles are paying more to drive in the centre of the capital. coming up on afternoon live all the sport — 0lly. it is still semi final hangover, is it? it was a fantastic weekend, fa
