this is bbc news. the headlines: theresa may says she'll be putting a bold offer to mp5, whilejeremy corbyn believes there won't be anything new. a roadside bomb has exploded close to a bus carrying tourists in egypt — injuring at least 17 people. the new national rail summer timetable has come into effect today, train companies say they've learned lessons from weeks of chaos on the network last summer. president trump has intervened in the debate on abortion, as states across the country prepare new restrictions on the procedure. kompany parts company with his club — the manchester city captain is off to anderlecht as player—manager. triumph for the netherlands in this year's eurovision song contest —

but the uk finished last. the prime minister is to launch a last—ditch attempt to gain approval for her brexit deal, with what she calls a "bold offer" to labour and conservative critics. writing in the sunday times, theresa may says mps should look at her withdrawal bill, the legislation needed to take britain out of the eu, "with fresh pairs of eyes". but the opposition leader jeremy corbyn says he does not think the bill will be "fundamentally any different" and therefore labour won't be supporting it. here's our political correspondent ben wright. the ayes to the right, 286, the no's to the left, 344. mps have already rejected theresa may's brexit deal three times,

but the prime minister plans a final throw of the dice before she quits number ten. the deal agreed with the eu will not be reopened, the writing in the sunday times, mrs mae promises a new bold offer to mps across the house of commons, with an improved package of measures, that she believes can win new support. theresa may's offered to mps so far lacks any detail. but it will not for instance include a referendum, something many labour mps want. one cabinet minister said measures including extra guarantees on workers‘ rights should secure labour support. we do, in many ways, agree. none of us want to remain in the european union, none of us want a no—deal brexit, which means logically there has to be a deal, and if there's going to be a deal, the labour and conservative position are about half an inch apart. last week, jeremy corbyn pulled the plug on talks with the government, today he was reluctant to say whether he wanted brexit to

happen or not. he certainly sounded sceptical about helping theresa may get the withdrawal agreement bill into law. we haven't seen whatever the new bill is going to be yet, but nothing i've heard leads me to believe that it's fundamentally any different to the previous bill that's been put forward, so as of now, we are not supporting it. theresa may says she will make her big offer in a speech later this week, and her hope is to win over enough labour mps to offset opposition from her own side. but few here think of that is likely to work — tory resistance seems to be growing, and breaking the deadlock in parliament looks as hard as ever. you all right? and look who's making hay out of that. polls suggest the brexit party is surging in the european elections being held this week. their new recruits sell a simple message. we have one clear aim, and we are not going to muddy it with a whole lot of others. we have one clear aim, which is to deliver the result of the referendum,

the second reason of not cup having a refernedum, is you know, they are rather discredited. while labour says another referendum should be an option, there is no ambiguity from parties campaigning to remain. if the government is going to bring the withdrawal bill before commons, what we have said is if they attach a confirmatory referendum to it, we will support it. others fighting for remain votes on thursday say there is no time to hold another public vote before october the 31st, the latest brexit deadline. at the beginning of these european election campaigns, we had time to provide for a people's vote on what happens on brexit, which would take at least 5—6 months. we now no longer have the time to do that by the 315t of october. the stalemate here and the government's failure to get a brexit deal through parliament have led to this week's european elections, and the chance for voters to have a say on the state of brexit. ben wright reporting. and next week, we will be continuing our series of interviews

with meps and leaders from the main parties standing in the european elections in a special ‘ask this.‘ you can send us your questions to put to them. on monday, we'll speak to conservative mep ashely fox and vince cable the lib dem leader. then on tuesday we're interviewing gerard batten the ukip leader and on wednesday it will be the turn ofjohn healey from labour and adam price the plaid cymru leader. details of how to get in touch are on the screen. security sources in egypt say at least 17 people have been injured in a blast appearing to target a tourist bus. the attack happened near the new egyptian museum close to the giza pyramids. the sources added that ten of the wounded are egyptians while seven are south africans. they have been taken to a nearby hospital, and they are all in a stable condition. earlier i spoke to ranyah sabry from bbc arabic who is in cairo and gave us the latest. the explosion was due to a primitive ied or improvised electronic device that went off when the bus was passing and shattered the glass, the majority of the injuries, all of which are light, were caused by the shattered glass.

seven are tourists from south africa and the rest are egyptians, passers—by or people who were in a car next to the bus when the explosion happened, and it occurred close to the grand egyptian museum which is still under construction and will be opened officially in 2022 but part of it remains to be open, things have moved from the egyptian museum in tahrir square to the grand egyptian museum and this is why the tourist bus was in the area. it's obviously a popular attraction. how unusual is it for tourists to be targeted? security in egypt has been stable for the past two years plus, we haven't seen such explosions in the capital or any explosions targeting tourists, any violence has been occurring

as part of egypt's clamp—down on terrorists and skirmishes between security and these militias or militants, but when it comes to tourists they have not been a target and tourism in egypt is picking up, we are talking about a 53% increase this year as they began a campaign on international platforms to attract tourists back again and it has been working. we will see the affect of this explosion on the season of summer and tourism in coming weeks. the new national rail summer timetable has come into effect today, with train companies saying they're making every effort to avoid the chaos of last year's timetable. public transport campaigners have warned that "robust contingency plans" are needed in case the changes do cause disruption. our business correspondent katy austin reports.

train companies are adding new services each year, to provide for an increasing number of passengers, and boost the economy. today's timetable shake—up makes space for 1,000 additional services across the country. but these changes are on a far smaller scale than last may, then, a huge overhaul of timetables resulted in chaos for passengers on the northern and govia thameslink networks in particular. real operators will be monitoring this timetable train carefully, and they say they can respond quickly if there are any problems, adding that extra staff on how to support passengers. train companies and network rail have emphasised that they have learned lessons from what happened last summer, and are working together to put those lessons into practice. this service will remain... they highlight the new winter timetable introduced

in december, which was deliberately scaled back, as a successful example. the group representing passengers says those paying to travel deserve this time around to go smoothly. we will know really by the end of the morning commute on monday, that is the kind of acid test, when we really see whether it works or not. sunday is a bit of a trial run, monday morning, d—day really for commuters, let's see what happens, were we there watching on behalf of passengers? seeing what's happening, seeing how good the information is in particular. last summer's rail chaos led to apologies from the transport secretary, and an official inquiry. the disruption is still fresh in the minds of commuters, who will be expecting a far less stressful experience when they return to the network in their millions on monday morning. a 16—year—old boy is said to be in a stable but serious condition after being shot in the leg in sheffield. emergency services were called just after midnight to the the spital hill area of the city. police investigating the shooting have appealed to people who heard or saw anything to come forward. more than 50 migrants have been found in the english channel

travelling towards the uk during the weekend. around 4am this morning, border force was alerted to a small boat in uk waters heading towards dover. 13 people were recovered, claiming to be iraqi and iranian nationals. a separate incident took place five hours later, a boat was intercepted which contained 19 people. a home office spokesman said that anyone crossing the channel in a small boat is ‘taking a huge risk‘. voters in switzerland appear to have backed the tightening of gun laws to conform with europe—wide rules. an estimated 67% of those who voted in a referendum approved of tougher controls on semi—automatic and automatic weapons. after the paris attacks in 2015, all signatories of the schengen open border treaty were told to restrict such guns. well, our correspondent imogen foulkes sent this update from the swiss capital of bern. she began by telling mejust how prevalent the sight of guns are in the country. yesterday morning i was out for my morning run, i could hear gunfire at my local shooting club and ex army officers getting in their shooting practice. it's very common to see people

with guns, it's common to hear the gun club going through its practices on a wednesday evening or sunday morning. there are an estimated 2.3 million guns in this country, those are the ones we know about, probably many more inherited from fathers and grandfathers and pretty lax controls — the line has always been that the swiss government trusts the swiss citizen, the swiss man, gun crime is relatively low. but in a country with open borders with the rest of europe, when we see the kind of horrific attacks we saw in paris, europe wants more controls, it wants police across europe to know who has an automatic weapon, where that is, who has a permit, who hasn't, whether that weapon has been sold and who to, and that is the sort of thing the swiss will have to comply with, and they voted by a pretty big majority,

around 64% in favour of those restrictions. a lot of those guns are because people do their military service, they get to keep them, they may not all be using them but have there not been the instances of gun violence that we report on from the us or other european countries? is this driven by the need to conform with eu rules to remain in schengen? that's a good question, because there have been other nationwide votes, brought by women's groups, groups concerned about domestic violence, by doctors associations and the swiss medical association concerned about suicide asking for greater gun control, and these have always failed but now because of the need to keep those borders open with europe, to keep good relations and access to the single market, the swiss have said yes to this restriction.

but in the run—up to this vote i talked to a lot of people, primarily women, who said, at last, now is our chance, i'm voting for this. not really because brussels has told us to do it has told us to do it but because i think this will make our country a safer place. and if you look at the figures for gun suicide, you can see that switzerland has just about the highest in europe for that, and many people are saying control guns more and people in moments of desperation won't have such easy access to them and maybe suicides could be prevented. us president donald trump has come out in support of ‘pro—life‘ views on abortion, amid controversy surrounding changes to the law in several states. this year alone, eight have voted to either ban abortions or further restrict the time limits on when they can take place. anti—abortion campaigners say they want the issue pushed to the supreme court, where they hope republican judges will overturn a landmark ruling that legalised terminations.

with more here's our north america correspondent chris buckler. the battle over a woman's right to an abortion is being fought across the states, and there may be no issue more divisive in a country already split apart by politics. should a child, a life inside a mother's womb, be killed due to the actions of its parents? on friday, missouri passed a bill that stops a pregnancy from being terminated after eight weeks unless there is a medical emergency. there is no exception allowed for cases where the mother has been the victim of rape or incest. any time we are so disrespectful and immoral that we would force a woman to bring to life a child that is the result of a rape an incest, or of sex trafficking, we are not thinking about life. just days earlier, alabama put

in place a law that is even stricter protests were held as they voted to outlaw all abortions at any time unless a woman's life was at risk. the president knows that evangelical christians are among his strongest supporters. it was obvious as he campaigned in 2016. do you believe in punishment for abortion, yes or no, as a principle? the answer is that there has to be some form of punishment. for the woman? yeah, there has to be some form. those views seem to be stronger than the law in alabama which makes carrying out the abortion a crime for the doctor and not the mother but in a tweet donald trump has said he is strongly pro—life with three exceptions. rape, incest and protecting the life of the mother. that may be a sign that he is worried this issue could influence some voters in next year's presidential election. we are at a point where a number, it is notjust alabama,

this has happened in ohio, this has happened in missouri, this happened in georgia. there is a law that has been passed in michigan that the democratic governor is going to veto. this is happening across the country and people need to know what's really going on here. this is a violation of civil rights. republicans seem determined to push this issue in individual states in an attempt to get america's abortion laws challenged here at the us supreme court. more than 45 years ago the famous case roe versus wade established a woman's right to choose an abortion, but donald trump has appointed newjustices that have given this a conservative majority and members of his party want to test the law again. the headlines on bbc news. theresa may says she'll be putting a bold offer to mps, whilejeremy corbyn believes there won't be anything new. security sources in egypt say at least 17 people have been injured, in a blast appearing to target a tourist bus.

the new national rail summer timetable has come into effect today. train companies say they've learned lessons from weeks of chaos on the network last summer. indian prime minister narendra modi and his bjp party are heading for a second term in office — that's according to exit polls. voting has ended in the seventh and final phase of india's general election, the world's biggest exercise in democracy. 900 million people were eligible to vote. earlier i spoke to our correspondent sangita myska, who was in delhi as the first exit polls came in.. exit polls come with health warnings, they are not always reliable. the way they are done is literally someone standing outside the polling booth asking people what they have voted, and therefore there can be vast variations. having said all of that, three out of four of the biggest exit polls are showing that narendra modi, the incumbent

prime minister, is likely to be re—elected in 2019, and likely to be able to form an absolute majority government. now, in 2014 he became the first prime minister in about 30 years to be able to do that. if he repeats that success, clearly, that will be a huge coup. yeah, as you say, health warnings, we need to look at australia to see that. just 36 hours ago. but if this is right, what is the legacy of the campaign that you have experienced out there? some of the reporting here suggested it has been pretty negative. this, i would say, and i think most people here would agree, this has been the most divisive, bitter, fractious election that india has seen in many, many years. the question of course is why. principally because this general election has been less about issues and more about having a referendum on the prime minister.

he, of course, is from the bjp party, they are hindu nationalists. what his critics will say that over the past five years he has failed to deliver on really big things. we have a stumbling economy. growth is slowing down. there is a problem withjobs. unemployment is the highest for 45 years. farmer distress, farmer suicides, a huge problem, thousands across the country in the last five years. but very little discussion of that. his critics say instead it has all been drowned out by the identity politics of the bjp. they have made great play of caste and religion in this country, and critics will tell you as a result india is inching away from its secular constitutional basis. but mr modi's supporters will tell you he is the only man that can deliver sustained development. in the south of the country, which in the past has been

unresponsive to the bjp, they will also tell you he is the only prime minister that can take india out of the embedded corruption that has dogged this country for many years. but, of course, the results will be counted on thursday and that is when we will get the actual result and we will know who indians have voted for, and who they want to govern the country over the next five years. the eu elections take place on thursday — this weekend, we've been looking at the key issues affecting voters in the uk's nations. our scotland correspondent, lorna gordon, reports from peebles in the borders, to see what voters there would like politicians to prioritise. scotland is one big constituency when it comes to the european elections. from the cities of the central belt to scotland's islands, from the mountains in the highlands, to here in the borders, six seats are up for grabs. we are starting with mountain bikers, in a race around the issues

that are vexing voters. this sport is a popular pastime in the countryside around peebles. there is a lot of positive work going on in this area at the moment to develop tourism, to really put the scottish borders on the map. and that is influencing how you vote in the eu elections? i think so. i feel that as long as we are in europe we clearly need to have representation. i think there can only be one issue, really, in the european elections, and that's brexit. and i think that is probably how people will vote. so, what of brexit? three years ago a majority in scotland voted to stay part of the eu, but there are strong feelings on both sides and the temperature of the debate remains high. i'll vote for anything that says i want out of europe, regardless of my allegiances to other parties in the past. we don't want brexit, so that would be about it, that would sum it up. that's the issue you will be deciding to vote on? we just want to stay as we are.

i've got my voting card but i haven't a clue what to do. why is that? because i thought we weren't going to have any european elections! since the last european election five years ago, scots have gone to the polls plenty of times, including to vote in a referendum on scottish independence. that debate is ongoing. so, might it play a role in the decision people face? over 60% of people voted to remain in this country and if they truly do want to remain i think there is only one real option for that to happen. what's that? independence. i disagree. that's fine. well, i'm welsh, i'm not scottish, i wouldn't vote for scottish independence, i don't think it's the right way to go. i think overwhelmingly for this particular election, i would like to send a strong message to westminster, you know, about how unimpressed we are about the way they've handled brexit.

turnout for the european parliamentary elections tends to be low, but the mood music for this one — strong opinions from some, angerfrom others, and much wariness about the election ahead. and you can find more news and analysis on the eu elections over on the bbc news website. the start of the second world war saw nearly three million children evacuated from britain's main cities to the safety of the countryside. in one case, an entire school was moved from london to wales. our reporter, tomos morgan, has been to meet the last two surviving members of one class, as they reunited for the first time since the end of the war. and we haven't met... since we left school, no. but you haven't altered. no, nor you. laughter

it's been 76 years since they last met, but the school time memories of powis castle are still as clear as ever. do you remember miss gwynn? we called her beaky! laughter very tall and very thin and she taught english. 0h, she was good, though. during the second world war, thousands of schoolchildren from the cities were moved to safer rural locations. as governor of the welsh girls school in ashford just outside london, lord powis invited the pupils there to be taught in his family home in powis castle, mid—wales. i think we were quite unaware of the war going on because we were never told what was happening. no. wendy duff and mabel gower are now the last two surviving members of their year group. and in addition to the lessons, the homework and the recreational activities they had here,

the girls spent hours making much needed garments that were sent to our battling troops. every spare minute we were knitting, because we used to knit socks. we were not allowed to waste any time at all. in the 80th year since the beginning of the second world war, this now a national trust—run castle has been recreated for the public as the school it once was between 1939 and 1946. before the war ended, wendy and mabel parted to study at different colleges in london and the midlands. yet after a lifetime apart, the memories of their time in powis live on. i mean, i feel as if we haven't really missed a time, you know? yeah. you know, we've both had completely different lives. it makes me very grateful i've lived so long. exactly, exactly.

this year's eurovision song contest had it all: russia had singing in the shower, australians were on bendy poles and there was a special performance from madonna. the netherlands triumphed for the first time since 1975 — but it was despair for the uk's entry, which finished last. our correspondent, david sillito was there. from tel aviv, israel, this is the grand final of the eurovision song contest, 2019! on stage, it was business as usual. but off—screen there were protests from those opposed to israel's actions in the occupied palestinian territories. chanting: taking part in eurovision means you join a racist mission! i think the world should not allow israel to host events like this because having events

like the eurovision here is masking away the reality of the occupation. and injerusalem, police tackled orthodox protesters angered that the contest was being held on the jewish sabbath. in the end, there were no major protests. the programme passed largely without incident. the uk's michael rice sang with gusto, but ended up in last place. and after days of doubts, madonna did perform, but fans were not sure if this was a "douze points" performance. the winner was duncan laurence of the netherlands, and among the fans he had been a firm favourite from the beginning. thank you. now it's time for a look at the weather.

hello, there is also been a lot of low cloud, this was the scene at scarborough. showers have been developing over the past few hours, and as it has brightened up we have seen showers arriving as well. for western scotland, still cloudy. a lot of cloud for northern ireland. signs of brightness allowing the odd shower. some brightness, most of the showers arriving through the midlands towards central and southern england. showers could be heavy and thundery. this evening and overnight the showers become fewer and lighter. many places turning dry. low cloud and misty weather along north sea coasts will push inland tonight. it is pretty mild. into monday, almost a repeat performance of today. after a misty

start it will be warm in the sunshine. showers may be heavy and thundery. and again, slow—moving. we have mist and fog in the morning, that lifts, sunshine develops more widely triggering more showers. showers in northern ireland, the high ground of scotland, the hills of wales. misty over north sea coasts. temperatures similar to today. we have lower pressure towards continental europe. high pressure coming in from the atlantic. not particularly strong. it will limit the amount of conviction, limit the chance of catching a shower. a chillier start in the west on tuesday. the risk of one 01’ in the west on tuesday. the risk of one or two in the west on tuesday. the risk of one 01’ two showers in the west on tuesday. the risk of one or two showers for the eastern side of england. rain across northern scotland as well. temperatures again much as you are.

in the outlook, temperatures will not change an awful lot. later in the week, more clout and the chance ofa the week, more clout and the chance of a few more showers.

theresa may says she'll be putting a bold offer to mps, hello this is bbc news with shaun ley. the headlines. theresa may promises mps a ‘bold' new offer on brexit, to try to get her deal through parliament before she leaves office. security sources in egypt say at least 17 people have been injured, in a blast appearing to target a tourist bus. the new national rail summer timetable has come into effect today — train companies say they've learned lessons from weeks of chaos on the network last summer president trump has intervened in the debate on abortion —— as states across the country prepare

hello, and welcome to sportsday. one of the greatest players, leaders and role models, a man who "defines the essence of the club", those are some of the tributes given to manchester city's vincent kompany. the club captain has announced he is leaving the etihad stadium to become player/manager at the club where he started his career, anderlecht, in his native belgium. kompany bows out after helping city to win an unprecedented domestic treble in english men's football. katie gornall reports. at the heart of this thriving city, there has always been a solid company. yesterday's fa cup was the tenth and final major honour with his time at manchester city, the tea m his time at manchester city, the team that finished the season with all three domestic trophies, something no english men's team has done before. it's the best team in the world for me, you know? to set such a high

standard for such a long period of time, i'm not talking one year, i'm talking two years running, you know? what's a team, what a privilege. the morning after celebrating the trouble, he told the world he would be leaving. in the statement he said, it still doesn't feel real... hejoined the said, it still doesn't feel real... he joined the club said, it still doesn't feel real... hejoined the club back said, it still doesn't feel real... he joined the club back into thousand eight, a week before the ta keover thousand eight, a week before the takeover by the abu dhabi —based, which would transform city. in 2012, he became the first city player to lift a top division trophy in 44 yea rs. lift a top division trophy in 44 years. he went on to win three more league titles, two fa tubs took back—ups, and four league cups, perhaps a company moment that will live longest in memories, happened inside his final two weeks of the club. all my goodness me! won the game, and put company into premier league folklore. the biggest contribution that any player has ever made to the club. everyone loves him, everyone respects him.

a perfect captain. is next up will be to retrace his first footballing steps, going back to his boyhood clu b to steps, going back to his boyhood club to be a player manager. city will miss a part of their modern soul, but the company says himself, this is no goodbye, it's a see you later. kilmarnock scored a late winner against rangers to clinch third spot in the scottish premiership. they looked to be missing out with aberdeen beating hibernian, but three minutes from time, stephen o'donnell had his shirt pulled inside the penalty area. eamonn brophy rifled home the penalty to earn killie a 2—1win and their first season in europe since 2001. after the game kilmarnock boss steve clarke hinted strongly this would be his last game, having been heavily linked to the vacant scotland job. celtic rounded off another title winning campaign by beating hearts 2—1. mikeyjohnston bookended the scoring at celtic park.

england's cricketers have sealed a 4—0 series win over pakistan as the build up for this summer's home world cup, stays perfectly on course. england posted another high score of 351. and in the last few moments pakistan have been bowled out for 297, which means england win by 54 runs. patrick gearey reports. the next time you see england cricketers cross the boundary, they will be walking into the biggest tournament of their lives. there will be favourites for their home world cup. after four years, will be favourites for their home world cup. afterfour years, in which they've not just world cup. afterfour years, in which they've notjust raised the ceiling of one—day batting, but at times, smashed the roof and. whether it's owen orjoe, this is a team that seen scoring runs all over the place, today they threatened another monumental total, sometimes the higher you monumental total, sometimes the higheryou aim, monumental total, sometimes the higher you aim, the wobbly are the foundations. after they went for 84, others followed. england stalled, and still scored 351. somehow. if

there is a? amid the exclamation marks, it is around england's bowling. here's chris's answer. the first of three wickets in his first two overs, pakistan studied themselves, but were then spun off course. this from it off, crickets equivalent of a backfield finish. this is the final whistle. england ta ke this is the final whistle. england take the series 4— nail, next up world cup. patrick deary, bbc news. tennis news, british number onejohanna konta says ‘she's pleased with her progress'. despite defeat in the final of the italian open, it was one of her biggest career matches to date but the world number 4 kiki bertens proved a bridge too far. rhia chohan watched konta's 6—3, 6—4 defeat. you have to go back to 1971 for the last time a british woman reached the italian open final. hannah concho was excited, because of regardless whether she'd follow in the footsteps of virginia wade, she had found the form and depth to —— beat to top ten players to get here,

writing on the show, a backend into the net handed caroline a break in her opener. that some couldn't even watch. sharper, fewer errors, the world number seven served out the first sets, 6—3. warmed up by the second set, the british number one stood firm, but it was just for a moment. she had her eyes on the prize, and was swinging the volley broke konta, and the check never looked back. konta couldn't recover losing the set 6—4, the wait for her first title continues, the trophy in her hands, but the british player leaves with more confidence, entering next week's french open. the men's finals saw the two top seeds go head—to—head. rafael nadal comprehensively beaten novak djokovic 6—0, 4—6, 6—1 to claim his ninth rome masters title earlier today. the spaniard raced through the first set in just 39 minutes, the first 6—love between the rivals in 141 previous sets. djokovic did manage to force

the match to a deciding set, but nadal was dominant, winning in two hours and 25 minutes in the last tournament before the french open later this month. it is just over a month until wimbledon and this year, will see less matches postponed because of the weather. as today saw the new roof for court one unveiled. the second roof of wimbledon cost £70 million and took three years to complete it will only take ten minutes to close with another 20 for the air conditioning to fully acclimatise the stadium for indoor play. rain meant the roof was needed for today's celebration event, which included musical perfromances and matches with tennis legends including john mcenroe and martina navratilova. this year's tournament starts on the 1st ofjuly. great britain's women picked up only their second win of hockey's pro league event in london, beating belgium 2-0.

grace balsdon and lily ousley scored the goals at london's lee valley hockey centre. the victory moves them up to sixth in the table. great britain's men were soundly beaten by world champions belgium in their match though. their 4—nil defeat drops them to fourth in the pro league standings, while belgium go top. five—time moto gp world champion marc marquez has increased his lead at the top of the rider's standings with victory in the french grand prix at le mans. marquez finished almost two seconds clear of italy's andrea dovizioso, with danilo petrucci third. it's marquez‘s third victory in the last four races and means he is now eight points clear in the overall standings. solvenia's primoz roglic emerged as the overwhelming favourite for the giro d'italia title with a stunning win in today's ninth stage — a near 35 kilometre individual time trial. he was 11 seconds clear

on the stopwatch, finishing in 51 minutes, 52 seconds, and claimed his second stage victory in this year's race. the win lifts him up to second in the overall standings, one minute and 50 seconds behind italy's valerio conti with 12 stages remaining. an emotional ama agbeze has said she still wants to carry on playing international netball after being omitted from england's world cup squad. agbeze captained england to commonwealth games gold last year. head coach tracey neville will announce her 12—strong squad on thursday. i'm hoping that i do really well, and also i want to be part of it, but hopefully, still there in spirit, and hopefully i'll be able to watch the games, if i don't end up to watch the games, if i don't end up crying like this. yeah, i'm definitely disappointed, but i know

that that's a performance port. sometimes you are in, sometimes you are not. world boxing fans may be dreaming of a superfight between deontay wilder and britain's anthony joshua one day. and the american continues show why it would be so hotly anticipated. he's added to his incredible record with a first round knockout of his countryman, dominic b reazea le. wilder now has 41 wins from 42 fights, with a single draw against britain's tyson fury. meanwhile, joshua fights next against andy ruinr on the 1st ofjune in new york. i am an intelligent fighter, i'm very smart in the ring, the way i set these guys up. they say speed is power but power on top of speed, i don't know what to call my right hand any more. it's the hammer of thor. the hammer of thor! so, what next for wilder? his manager says that a fight with britain's tyson fury

or anthony joshua will "probably" take place next year. the three heavyweights are signed to different us broadcasters, making negotiations more difficult. fury took to instagram earlier today. the bronze bomber is the most fearsome, most destructive puncher in the heavyweight division, but it's a pity had to lose to the gypsy king. anyone who stands in front of dion a while there, he will knock them out. dion tay wilder is the second baddest man on the planet, behind the gypsy king, tyson very, the number one heavyweight in the world. nobody can beat me. can't be touched. boom. we will see. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. see you soon.

theme music plays artificial intelligence continues to play a bigger and bigger role in our lives so it is no surprise that the barbican summer exhibition charts our perception of computers, intelligence and artificial beings through the ages and through the lens of different cultures. the desire to create artificial life is old, very old. it goes back at least as far as the legend of the gollum, created from dust or clay and brought to life through incantation.

ai: more than human is a celebration and a critical examination of innovation — that's a lot of "ations" — showcasing the works of diverse digital artists and academic institutions around the world. see, in 100 years' time, we will all look like this. how computers perceive us using cameras is an overarching theme here. last week, we covered the uk police's increasing deployment of live facial recognition, from specially—equipped vans to cctv cameras and, in london, we caught an incident when one man refused to be scanned. if i want to cover my face, i cover my face. don't push me out of the way... the police said this was disorderly behaviour so they gave him a fine. if i want to cover me face, i cover me face. it's not up to them to tell me not to cover me face. i got a £90 fine, here

you go, look at that. £90 — thanks lads, £90, well done. and just this week, san francisco has banned law enforcement agencies from using facial recognition. it is a landmark decision in the security versus civil liberties debate surrounding this technology. well, we asked for your feedback and we were inundated with comments and questions. many of you were of the opinion that, if you've got nothing to hide, then there's nothing to worry about and this is another tool to help keep us safe. but some opinions expressed exactly the opposite, that this is another step on the way to a surveillance state. we've asked biometrics expert stephanie hare to answer some of your most prominent questions. stephanie, welcome. one of the questions that was asked the most was whether facial recognition could work with people who choose to wear face coverings. and in fact, we put this to the police — here's what they said. it is not a problem. it is more of a challenge.

the way the technology works, we need to — the starting point is the eyes — the eyes are really important in terms of facial recognition technology. often those eyes are visible. we have face cameras to include motorcycle helmets, so the technology does work with motorcycle helmets as well. i would suggest, operationally, it is not as efficient and effective with face coverings but it is not an impossibility. so stephanie, the police say that facial recognition technology will still work even if the face is partially covered. is that true? some facial recognition technology can indeed identify someonejust using their eyes alone. that would require infrared capability and depth—sensing capability. that exists in your apple iphone x. it does not, to my knowledge, exist in the technology that the police are currently using, which is relying on 2d photographs in a data base, cctv and other public cameras, which tend to return quite low quality footage, and even body cams — not at the moment. so this technology is very much under development. it illustrates though

that it is possible. another question that came up a lot was about facial data and gdpr. now, we has seen some private companies building huge databases of facial data. a lot of people want to know how this can be allowed to happen? it's a great question. so in the show last week you featured a company called facewatch, and facewatch is maintaining its own watch—list of people it thinks are either criminals or suspected criminals, and it's sharing its own privately—gathered watch—list with the police, and then the police are sharing their database with facewatch. and the potential loophole within the gdpr is that the gdpr protects people's biometric data, but makes exceptions for things like national security, fighting fraud and fighting corruption. stephanie thank you very much for your insights and thank you so much for your comments and questions. don't forget, you can always get in touch with us on twitter. here in the uk, the latest published

data suggests that over 60,000 people under the age of 18 went missing in the space of a year. now, while 97% of those come home or are found alive and well, the unimaginably heartbreaking search for the remaining 3% continues. and here too facial recognition could provide an extra bit of hope, as lara has been finding out. this is six—year—old bleona mata. she disappeared from her family home in albania in 2010. and this is how she might look today at 15. after repeated sightings by albanians visiting, she is thought to be in the uk. in her home country, hers has been a high—profile case so of course all conventional avenues of searching have been

pursued, but now amazon's facial recognition software is being tried. it is part of a new system that aims to search the dark web, as well as all websites, to find any pictures that may bear a likeness. the dark web is what could be described as the hidden part of the internet. it provides anonymity to those using it and placing it is difficult. this engine casts its net wide. searching internationally for a likeness. when it gets ahead or receives a reported sighting, a poster is sent to screens in the vicinity, filling otherwise redundant advertising space. the gmc engine is a very basic platform that allows currently 29 countries, law enforcement agencies and charities, to upload missing child photos and information so on social media, via e—mail, or on twitter.

amazon's recognition works by extracting data from the face and representing that as numerical values so then it will do the same again with the other images that its searching for the person in. here we end up with a percentage possibility as to whether it is that same person. we don't actually store the faces, so we store a numerical representation of the faces. we encode that numerically and that is a one—way process. so there is no way to return and generate an image of the face from this numerical vector that we store. we have a customer called marinus analytics in the us that has rescued a 16—year—old girl in northern california that had been trafficked for sexual exploitation. inputting bleona's picture created no leads on this occasion but the system will continue to search until it is told to stop. yet the pain of not knowing

still continues for her family. this is early days for the technology and clearly it can be improved over time. we are looking to connect to other datasets. child sexual abuse material data bases, or perpetrator data bases, sex offenders data bases, or even cctv. if this system has the capacity and it's that easy to input a picture and within seconds it's going to do a search of the whole web, why isn't this being done for every single child who is missing? i think the system has the capacity, it's a matter of capacity in our own team or in policing to make sure that the system is used. at the moment, only our team has access to the gmc engine, and we so we basically need to make sure that our team has access to all the images of the outstanding missing children, say, after three days and then run them through the engine to see if we can find them. as is often the case, the technology existing

is just the first step. with the ability to search not just the open internet but also the dark web, this could be the start of something far bigger. and back at the barbican's new exhibition, i'm becoming part of the show. no, this isn't a painting of flowers, but an ai looking at my hand and other objects through a camera. this is a demonstration of how a neural network can only interpret what it sees through a camera based on what you've already taught it, so if you only need a neural network images of waves, it will try and interpret what it can see through this camera in terms of seascapes but if, for example, you were to only feed it images of fire, then my hands would be interpreted in terms of flames.

pretty cool, or should i say, hot. learning how an ai perceives the world is an undercurrent running throughout the exhibition, and, with understanding, comes language. this is the waterfall of meaning, and it examines millions of sentences and looks at the way we use words to try and teach itself whether, for example, beer is expensive or cheap, whether it's bad or good, whether it's male or female. if there is an inherent bias in how we use words, that will show up the results. ai is just revealed the secret part of human so i think that this is a good opportunity to think about bias, because ai doesn't lie, ai doesn't excuse. ai just reveal everything. so then that's the reason, you know,

the bias getting problem. actually, we have the problem already. and that's it for the short cut of click, here at ai: more than human, at the barbican centre, in london. this is alter 3 and it's in no way freaking me out. don't forget the full—length version is available to watch right now on iplayer and you can get in touch with us any time you fancy. we're live on instagram, youtube, facebook and twitter. thanks for watching. and i'm just going to step a little bit further away now. bye. hello there.

quite a bit of cloud around today and a number of showers. a similar picture tomorrow, so breaking through the clouds, you can see rains, sunshine breaking into the cloud. there will also be a number of heavy showers around as well. talking about the showers, this is what we've seen today. a line of heavy showers working up from dorset to come across towards the midlands, and in tooling share, caused by the winds bashing together, a line of storms going up to the atmosphere, and this convergence has been an important time for seeing heavy showers today. across the workshare area, we have scenes like this earlier on, heavy downpours there. we are all used to scenes like this, but what about this next weather watcher pictures sent from lancashire? you might be able to make out a funnel cloud here, a tornado that hasn't quite touched the ground. we have seen some pretty lively showers around, they will fade away this evening, left with murky conditions around our coastal areas of eastern england and eastern parts of scotland, some fog patches

and missed coming inland across east anglia, a few showers in the northwest. all of this cloud around, it will not be a cold night —— it will be a cloud... cold night, it will be a cloud... cold night, it will be a cloudy start to the day. just like today, the weather will brighten up, particularly as we go into the afternoon, that brightness triggering further showers, again co nve rg e nt triggering further showers, again convergent zones, one triggering further showers, again convergent zones, one of these working into eastern scotland, another one for eastern england. this is where the showers are going to bea this is where the showers are going to be a heaviest in the most likely to be a heaviest in the most likely to happen. notice there are a few showers elsewhere across wales and northern ireland, but more scattered in nature, between these showers, there will be sunshine around, temperatures for many of us between 15-20, it temperatures for many of us between 15—20, it won't feel bad because of the light winds, we will see sunshine breaking through the clouds. tuesday's forecast, ran across northern scotland, at the same time, pressure builds across the western side of the country, and so the weather should be coming increasingly settled here with more in the way of dry weather and sunshine breaking through. could see a few showers started around, maybe

across parts of east anglia, figure clouds working into northern scotland, with the threat of rain here. the best of the sunshine, temperatures climbing a little, up to 21 degrees in london, which is not bad for the time of year, looking at similar temperatures on wednesday. an area of high just nosing into a bit further, a lot of dry weather around. perhaps cloudy later on in the day, threatening more rain across the far north of scotland, particularly in the northern aisles where it's cool, 20 degrees, not feeling bad, again, the winds will stay late. towards the end of the become a low pressure will move on, that will threaten some rain for some of us by friday. that's your latest weather.
