tributes of flowing in following the death of the journalist of lyra mckee. will clinton hasjust posted. -- bill mckee. will clinton hasjust posted. —— bill clinton. the latest tribute there coming from the former president of the usa, bill clinton, following the death ofjournalist lyra mckee. and we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers asa bennett and yasmin alibhai—brown — that's coming up after the headlines at 11:30. now it's time for the weather with mel coles. ramped up the sunshine amounts and temperatures responded. while that

sunshine did turn a little hazy at times it certainly did not spoil the feel of the day, and actually help to give our temperatures extra boost. all four nations recorded the highest temperatures of the year so far. and there is more warmth to come for many of us as we had into the weekend. we are drawing up that warmth around this area of high pressure that is sitting over scandinavia, and the warmth is coming from central europe. we have a weather system working its way from the atlantic, quite blustery as well for the northern isles as we had through saturday, at times we could see some rain and it could feel cooler here. elsewhere lighter winds, lengthy spells of sunshine in the heat really building down towards the southern half of the uk where we could see high temperatures of around 25 celsius on saturday. as we head into the evening we will still have that cloud draped through northern ireland and up into scotland producing outbreaks of rain, and elsewhere we could see the return of

some low cloud, mist and fog, but it should be a cold night. most places remaining frost free and more mild thanit remaining frost free and more mild than it has been for most of us. into easter sunday that early—morning eastern fog will clear quite readily. we will still have that low cloud and outbreaks of rain working its way through northern ireland and up into scotland, underneath that it will be quite breezy and once again temperatures pegged back. elsewhere lighter winds, a lot of sunshine around and temperatures still well above average for this time of year. as we head into the overnight period, pressure starts to build, and that will push back our weather front so it will retreat westwards. so for easter monday it looks as though the whole of the uk will be under clear skies, lots of sunshine once again, still quite breezy, noticeable breeze through easter monday and just the chance of one or two

showers for southern england. but most showers for southern england. but m ost pla ces showers for southern england. but most places will remain dry and in the sunshine it will feel pleasant with those temperatures above average for this time of year. as we look ahead a little further into tuesday, lots of fine, dry weather to be had once again, still quite breezy, lots of sunshine around, we are starting to see one or two showers creeping into southern england, wales and northern ireland. and the temperatures as well still above average for the time of year, just starting to come down a notch oi’ just starting to come down a notch or two, just starting to come down a notch ortwo, and just starting to come down a notch or two, and that looks to be a bit ofa or two, and that looks to be a bit of a trend as we had through the coming week. we start to look to the atla ntic coming week. we start to look to the atlantic for our weather systems, and it looks as though an area of low pressure will develop down towards the south and the west, and around that area of low pressure we will start to see showers and their way in. some of these showers have the chance of being quite thundery, quite heavy, there will be dry intervals, some sunshine to be had, quite breezy through wednesday and noticeably fresher. we are now looking at temperatures in the mid——

high today full up further into the further into the week that will be a trend, it will remain more u nsettled, trend, it will remain more unsettled, we are seeing spells of showers or rain at times, the risk of some of those showers being quite thundery and it will turn cooler day by day. hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first the headlines. police investigating the murder ofjournalist leera mckee police investigating the murder of journalist lyra mckee in londonderry last night release cctv footage of the shooter and call for the public‘s help. her partner paid an emotional tribute. it has left me without the love of my life, the woman i was planning to grow old with. we are all poorer for the loss of lyra. our hopes and dreams, and all of her amazing potential was snuffed out by a single, barbaric act. an american couple who

tortured 13 children in a so—called ‘house of horrors‘ are sentenced to life in prison. police in london have towed away a pink boat, that's been at the heart of climate change protests at oxford circus. nearly 700 people have been arrested since the demonstrations started five days ago. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are asa bennett, the telegraph's brexit editor and author and journalist yasmin alibhai—brown. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. starting with the daily telegraph — commons speakerjohn bercow must allow donald trump to address parliament this summer or risk damaging britain's special relationship with the united states,

according to ministers. the bank holiday weekend is set to be an £11 billlion easter shopping bonanza, according to the daily mail, as forecasters expect the hot weather to drive up takings at the tills and boost high street spending. on the front of the financial times, congressional democrats ramp up their investigations for donald trump's conduct, and wimbledon set to abandon tradition and serve up an online ballot for tickets. the warm weather is also splashed across the sun — it's a "bunny boiler", as the paper reports on the hottest easter weather in 70 years. the times reports on a cia warning over chinese telecoms giant huawei that wants to supply technology for britain's 56 mobile network. american intelligence suggests the company is funded by chinese state security. and on the guardian, a warning that political violence must not be allowed to take hold in northern ireland again

as derry mourns the death of irish journalist lyra mckee. those other front pages. let's start oui’ those other front pages. let's start our chat. we will start with the front of the guardian, yasmin, why don't you kick us off. so terribly sad. there are two things i think what that beyond what we have said already. 0ne what that beyond what we have said already. one is that this is a terrible time forjournalists everywhere, president trump, all across europe, the authoritarian leaders, in india and so on, the focus on blaming journalists and actually targeting them is becoming, it has always happened in some parts

of the world, but now it is spreading everywhere. and we also have to talk about how difficult it is forjournalists to do theirjobs at the moment. and she was much admired, very young, and there is a very sweet little thing here on the front page of the guardian, of when she was 14 she wrote to herself about how hard it was for her as a 95v about how hard it was for her as a gay girl, in school, and the things that happened to her, and to see her partner there, just such a big tragedy really. and i don't think it is disconnected from the mess that is disconnected from the mess that is brexit, i'm not lambing brexit but i think something, some stability has gone from everywhere —— not blaming brexit. stability has gone from everywhere -- not blaming brexit. not trying to blame or link it to brexit though, it is something that as we read it, it is something that as we read it, it very much, the new ira, which is

sort of the residual republic —— republican forces was never accepted the good friday agreement, they have been fighting his rearguard action as such, it is a human tragedy that make human and cuddled out such a tragic loss. at the same time, one can definitely acknowledge that this does illustrate that for those who wa nt to does illustrate that for those who want to wash their hands of northern ireland and just think, 0k, what is all this scaremongering about in the community, innocence, when people talk about the irish border and technology and what if someone takes a potshot or tries to take it down, people still have weapons, mail bombs still go off in northern ireland in that sense. violence is, you can't just turn ireland in that sense. violence is, you can'tjust turn away ireland in that sense. violence is, you can't just turn away from ireland in that sense. violence is, you can'tjust turn away from it innocence. it is some thing, there is still turbulence. tonight we are talking about modern absolute tragic human casualties from this. and i

don't know if you saw that latest tribute from bill clinton, he also paid his respects to lyra mckee. they were all instrumental in the very difficult process. let's turn to the front of the telegraph, and here we are talking about senior tories considering a rule change in order to speed up theresa may's exit. they are really pushing for it, aren't they not giving up. how many chapters, who wrote house of cards? he needs to do this, this is absolutely, we need a new house of cards. that was actually, i think all about this tory party machinations, they know how to do it. it was william hague who said the tory party was a monarchy punctuated by regicide, and they are clearly trying to show that basically after this easter weekend, we will all be having fun, eating eggs, spending money in the shops,

may be enjoying the weather. these tory mps will be skipping back and deciding to meet with their collea g u es deciding to meet with their colleagues about changing the rules of the party in which, as we know, eve ryo ne of the party in which, as we know, everyone should know, we cannot have a leadership contest until december... they want to say that they now certainly can. is there a loophole somewhere, or do they... basically backbench mps have to agree to change. you may obviously say, the media will go, —— they will immediately go, right, we want another go at the contest. given that they did not win in december, will this be a shift in the numbers? at least the tory party, unless something will change then, because eve ryo ne something will change then, because everyone in westminster accepts that if nothing changes, we are heading into another 0ctober...|j if nothing changes, we are heading into another october... i wonder if she has become the convenient blame person. what is actually wrong is

the whole tory party, it is so hopelessly divided, and so is labour in its own way. this isn't going to solve the problem at all, because people are totally divided in, dare i say, the party that your paper supports, so getting rid of mrs may, i have no time for her at all, —— mrs may, but i don't think she is the problem. many tory mps, as we report, they feel they can try and pull the plug out and restart all over again, get someone who is more ofa over again, get someone who is more of a brexiteer, so that they can continue... born to rule like jacob rees mogg. oh my god! oh my god! if ican make rees mogg. oh my god! oh my god! if i can make a general point in this, we are following the step by step, i don't think mps have thought through the next step. you can'tjust have a

lightning fast leadership election because then you obviously have the same parliament that theresa may has been fighting. so you would have to go with a mandate from the people in a general election. who would want to do thatjob? who would want to inherit that? boris johnson? they all want thejob.. inherit that? boris johnson? they all want the job.. do they? if it fell into their laps they would love it. you can see them saying, i would do it much better, but with the hand that theresa may has been dealt, it is like we —— wading through treacle because the number so her, why would they want to do that now. let's talk about wading through treacle, donald trump thought this was behind him, possibly the mueller report continues. the fc weekend, "congress seeks full trump report", the democrats are not letting this go. and of course congress now, the balance has changed, one of the things i do about —— admire about

america is that one way or another the political system and some sections of the media do go on and on investigating. we don't have that culture here. we really don't we have a shouting culture, we don't have a shouting culture, we don't have this painstaking, taking seriously what has been done. america doesn't have a shouting culture ? america doesn't have a shouting culture? do you watch fox news? fox news aside, fox news is fox news. but on the whole there is this commitment to rule of law, to how the system should be working, and one day they will do it, but they won't do it in the way perhaps that we we re won't do it in the way perhaps that we were all hoping what happened with muellerjust saying, the man is what he is. it is a question of how far they should put it at this point —— put it. far they should put it at this point -- put it. they have been quite strategic. and yet, there is so much

to feast on, we could spend the whole rest of the programme talking about it. instead the politics has to be remembered because they obviously have to try and find inspiring messages to take the voters, and mueller is not going to do thejob for them, voters, and mueller is not going to do the job for them, the conclusion we have all talked about is that he deliberately said it is up to congress now, to decide if it is at an —— and obstruction ofjustice, what charges depressed. the democrats can't make their 2020 election campaign be" please mueller, can you make it go away for us. u mueller, can you make it go away for us. " and for trump supporters, nothing will move them, nothing will move them. let's turn to the front of the indian, a story that shocked us of the indian, a story that shocked us all. this something does have two change. thousands of non— british women have experienced domestic abuse in the uk but are being refused help. this is all part of the process that we are

110w all part of the process that we are now going through about who truly is a citizen? who truly belongs in this country and right rights do you have? we country and right rights do you have ? we have country and right rights do you have? we have to do this because we are changing from one set of rules to another but when you are not giving healthcare, there was a report last week that pregnant women are not going to get, they are not going for care because they are too scared of how much they would be charged. now it turns out that abused women are being denied. are we human, orare abused women are being denied. are we human, or are we abused women are being denied. are we human, orare we not? it has got to change. i hope we have a change. another demonstration, i could demonstrate my whole life, i think. let's have a look at the financial times, you have both had dealings and have enjoyed the pleasures of wimbledon and it looks like they are going modern on us. absolutely. and i will be able to go for the ballot tickets online. i have not done the

ballot before but i might actually do it this time. just go through the queue and hope to try my luck, wait a few hours, alljolly in the sun. this looks good for them. they are trying. although you do expect that hush—hush nature from wimbledon, they are not commenting, clandestinely no secret society. patrons paying, it says, £80,000 for a guaranteed seat. oh, well. money still talks for them. the thing i found interesting about this and it does show how data is power, the article does go on to say that the clu b article does go on to say that the club appears ready to move to a digital system because this would allow it to gather more data about the people coming through its gate. data, data. ok. let's talk about two

stories, hopefully we have time for the second, the stories concern our weather. positive stories. it's funny. because we are leaving it is sunny. we have our own mediterranean weather now. because it is sunny holidays will happen, it is because of brexit. i cannot wait to live in this wonderful new world of ours... not. a front-page splash in the daily mail that we will be spending more this weekend. personally i don't think i'll be going on that much of a hinge because as i was discussing earlier collar —— discussing earlier... i'm a savvy shopper. i go for the deals, i go for the bargains. not like theresa

may and her dealmaking. . .! for the bargains. not like theresa may and her dealmaking...! butjust think it shows that at least we will be busy this weekend and into the summer be busy this weekend and into the summer given that other story that we may be tying in about how we are staying at home for a vacation more. let's just turn to that then. written‘s £20 billion holiday boom. we have seen a few holidays stories in the buildup to the 29th stop pa rents in the buildup to the 29th stop parents could pick up a few bargains and whatnot but what is the express saying? they say that we are going to all stay at home. we have had one sunny day today and where. .. to all stay at home. we have had one sunny day today and where... were fantasising again. classic british fantasy. so people are thinking that we had better get

oui’ are thinking that we had better get our summer holiday book. as soon as there is a hint of heat all the men are wearing shorts and sandals, showing off as they walk down the street. they go big in the heat and it is quite dramatic. in the same way that we will be having holidays in the uk like no other. after all, there is so much seaside here. you don't need to europe! yes. our wonderful cold seed. —— wonderful cold ocean. we don't need to europe. and what's more, europeans will be coming to blackpool for the ultimate holiday experience. do you believe this stuff?! there are many things that we could debate here all weekend. i'll let you debate off camera if you like. thank you so

much. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, asa bennett and yasmin alibhai—brown. goodbye. good evening. here's your latest sports news. well, the race for a place in the premier league certainly took some twists and turns today. the leaders norwich were given a fright by sheffield wednesday — needing a last—gasp equaliser to rescue a point at carrow road. they got off to the perfect start thanks to marco stiepermann in the 19th minute. but wednesday hit back with this

incredible strike from fernando forestieri. and they took a controversial lead early in the second half when steven fletcher appeared to handle the ball. norwich didn't give up though, and in the seventh minute of stoppage time, mario vrancic snatched the draw which leaves them 5 points clear at the top. sheffield united are up to second on goal difference after a 2—nil win over nottingham forest. leeds missed out on regaining second spot as 10—man wigan came from a goal down to win 2—1 at elland road. bolton wanderers were relegated to league one after defeat to aston villa. footballers across england and wales are leading a 24—hour social media strike, which started at 9 o'clock this morning, in protest at how racism has been dealth with by football authorities and social media companies. among those taking part is tottenham defender danny rose, who was abused during england's euro 2020 qualifier in montenegro in march. the boycott kicks off the professional footballers'

association's anti—racism campaign, entitled #enough. i think it is great that players are coming together to make a stand and a big statement as a group and i think that is a very powerful thing and hopefully that does change mindsets and beliefs. i'm not a great user of social media myself. i try to stay clear of all forms of it. that is just my own personal preference. i know from players that it is an important part of their lives these days. so it certainly i think it can make a difference. anthony joshua's fight with jarrell miller injune is off after a reported second ‘adverse finding' for the american. joshua's promoter eddie hearn has confirmed that miller will now be replaced, and that a new opponent for the ibf, wba and wbo heavyweight champion will be announced next week. the fight is due to take place in new york and will be joshua's us debut. world number one and top seed

novak djokovic has been knocked out of the quarter finals of the monte carlo masters by daniil medvedev. reigning champion rafa nadal‘s hopes of an unprecedented 12th monte carlo title though are still alive. he's through to the semi—finals after beating argentina's guido pella in straight sets. the world snooker championship gets under way at the crucible theatre in sheffield tomorrow. ronnie o'sullivan is the bookmakers favourite to win the tournament, and the 43—year—old says he has taken inspiration from tiger woods's triumph at the masters as he chases a sixth world title. my my inspiration is watching him do what he did. so all the older generation of players will probably draw some sort of inspiration from that. sporty sport and if he can do it then i suppose it gives you more belief in yourself sometimes. —— sport is sport. good friday has been a great one

for super league leaders st helens. they beat bitter rivals wigan by 36 points to 10 at the dw stadium. elsewhere, hull fc took the derby bragging rights in style against their city rivals hull kingston rovers, winning 56—12. bottom of the table leeds rhinos beat huddersfield giants 38—18, and the salford red devils beat warrington wolves 36—12. england's moeen ali helped his royal challengers bangalore side to just their second win in this year's indian premier league. the all rounder smashed 66 off 28 balls as his team set kolkata knight riders a target of 214. they fell ten runs short. that's all the sport for now. all the rest of our stories are available on the bbc sport website and app. this time last night i told you that we had the warmest day of the year so we had the warmest day of the year so far. well, guess what? we have gone and done it again. good friday

eclipsed thursday with temperatures a degree also higher, not least here on the south coast. 24.2 degrees earlier on today. as you can see parts of wales, scotland and northern ireland were not far behind that it was a little different for some of the eastern coastal areas. a little cool because we have more of a breeze. i hope that tomorrow will not be as breezy for those eastern coast so it should not feel as chilly. high pressure still in charge tomorrow for most of us. this weather front up to the north—west threatens to bring cloud and some patchy rain across the far north—west of the uk. generally through the rest of tonight it will be clear spells, just the odd fog patch that should clear away quickly tomorrow and then for the majority, blue skies and hazy sunshine once again. for the western side of northern ireland and the far north—west of scotland, we will see more cloud and perhaps some splashes of rain. away from the far north—west, those temperatures are

well up into the 20s. we may add another degree tomorrow. 25, 20 six degrees tomorrow. during saturday night again we could see one or two fog patches. we keep this pesky weather front ringing cloud and splashes of rain into the far north—west. the wrinkle turn heavy for a time across the western and northern isles. —— the rain could turn heavy. we do it all again for easter sunday, fog patches that should clear quickly than for the majority, a lot of sunshine, still some extra cloud for the western side of northern ireland, rain confined to the very far north—west and those temperatures again widely up and those temperatures again widely up into the low to mid 20 celsius. and as we move into easter monday, if anything those frontal systems plaguing the north—west start to retreat out into the atlantic again and high pressure will still be dominant. even across the western side of the northern ireland and the north—west of scotland where it will have been cloudy, monday should be bright and dry for just about all of us. bright and dry for just about all of us. a small chance of a shower

towards the south—west later in the day. you will notice the strength of the breeze, breezy day on monday but still quite warm. can the warm weather last? it does look like as weather last? it does look like as we go through next week we will introduce the chance of one or two showers. it will eventually turn a little bit cooler. between now and then, enjoy your easter weekend. from me, good night.
