that is so deep in the blood. you fall in love with your football team and i have been in love with them for 40 plus years. almost 5000 officers are on duty at what is being treated as a high—risk event. despite the security, fans are focused on this, the biggest trophy in european club football. the city is buzzing. comeback kids clashing. rivalries aside, both teams are aware that there is something incredibly special about being part of what is only the second ever all—british final in champions league history.

and we'll be live in madrid, tottenham and liverpool throughout the programme this morning, for all of the build up ahead of the game. president trump has spoken publicly about who he thinks should be the next conservative leader, just days before he arrives in the uk for a state visit. he's told the sun borisjohnson would make an "excellent" prime minister. 0ur political correspondent mark lobel is in our london newsroom — how unusual is it for an american president to get involved in something like this? mrtrump is mr trump is arriving in the uk on friday. it is quite unusual for an american president to get stuck into an internal matter like this, isn't it? absolutely, not expected, but thatis it? absolutely, not expected, but that is donald trump for you. he comes that is donald trump for you. he co m es close that is donald trump for you. he comes close to endorsing the candidate, saying borisjohnson would be excellent in the job, reiterating comments he made when he came here last time, saying he would be an excellent pm. but he said jeremy hunt, the former foreign

minister, yes, i like him, he would doa minister, yes, i like him, he would do a good job. penny mordaunt, the defence secretary, who hasn't yet thrown her hat in the bring that is expected to do so, will be meeting in ivanka trump. and, a formal visit with donald trump from another candidate that donald trump says had asked for his endorsement, but he wouldn't say who that was. he has had time to criticisejeremy corbyn, who won't be attending a state banquet. he is objecting to what he calls donald trump's racist rhetoric. he said that is a mistake ofjeremy corbyn, but he said written loves him anyway so he is not too bothered. whether this intervention will help boris johnson, i think a meeting intervention will help boris johnson, ithink a meeting between the two would really supercharge boris johnson's campaign. it the two would really supercharge borisjohnson‘s campaign. it is rumoured that he is launching his digital campaign on monday. get the from the language used that he

doesn't feel anyone is a dead cert yet so he is not totally backing anyone. at least 12 people have been killed in a mass shooting in the us state of virginia, after a gunman opened fire in a local government building. police say the suspect, described as a disgruntled employee, died after a shoot out with officers. the chilling aftermath of another mass shooting, this one the work of a disgruntled employee who walked into a municipal building shortly after 4:00 on a friday afternoon and opened fire on his colleagues. they said to stay in there until the cops got there to let us come out. there was probably about 20 of us in an office, crammed in, and we barricaded the door. did you hear any gunshots? yes. yeah, we did. after shooting indiscriminately,

the gunman died after trading fire with the police. a long—term employee, officials have yet to release his name. i can tell you that we do have an additional victim to report. we now have 12. 0ne victim succumbed to the injuries on the way to the hospital. we also have four additional victims being treated at area hospitals, and we have reports that others may have self—transported. the virginia beach municipal centre, where the shooting this is thought to be the 150th mass shooting in the united states this year. president trump has been briefed on the situation and the white house says it is monitoring events in virginia beach closely. chris buckler joined us chris bucklerjoined us from virginia beach. what is the latest on this developing story? behind me

you can see this local government complex surrounded by a bring of ca i’s complex surrounded by a bring of cars and blue flashing lights. inside, detectives and forensic officers, even the fbi, are trying to piece together the background to these killings, but we are learning these killings, but we are learning the first details of those who were inside building number two, when the gunman walked in and started to fire wildly. it is believed he walked through, and the suggestion is that people were hiding under desks as they heard these shots, sometimes from the next floor, and the shots we re from the next floor, and the shots were getting closer and closer. a terrifying situation for all of them. we are also learning details of the person that they believe was responsible for it. he was killed by an officer during a shootout, in which an officer was also injured. it is believed he was an engineer who worked here, but it is not

doubted that the wider debate will be about gun control. this is the 150th mass shooting in this country this year, one for every day. tomorrow is national gun violence awareness day, and i don't think many people will be unaware of the dangers of having weapons on the streets. the british retail mogul sir philip green has been charged with four counts of misdemeanour assault in the united states. sir philip is the chairman of arcadia group, which owns a number of retail brands including topshop. prosecutors say he has been accused of touching a woman inappropriately while staying at a resort in arizona. a spokesman for sir philip says he's "strenuously denied" the allegations. people protesting against lgbt lessons at a primary school in birmingham have been banned

from gathering outside its gates by a high court injunction. birmingham city council made the application after more than two months of demonstrations at anderton park school. the education secretary, damian hinds, said it would allow parents to "continue peaceful discussions with staff". geologists in iceland say that one of the country's most beautiful natural attractions has been left in ruins after years of uncontrolled tourism. the leidarendi cave near reykjavik has seen many of its stalactites and stalagmites destroyed, and much of the walls have been covered in graffiti. labour has suspended a member of its national executive committee, over remarks he reportedly made about the party's anti—semitism i’ow. peter willsman is accused of saying the israeli embassy was "almost certainly" behind complaints of anti—semitism. lord falconer is leading labour's

inquiry into the claims and hejoins us now from nottinghamshire. thank you forjoining us at this time ona thank you forjoining us at this time on a saturday morning. itjust goes on, this row, doesn't it? and your task seems to increase on a daily basis. when you heard of this latest suspension, what did you think? well, first of all my task is now effectively being done by the equalities commission, who are launching a full—blown investigation into allegations of anti—semitism in the labour party. the issue of pete willman is an acid test for the government. he has this recording published by radio station yesterday, has said that the allegations of anti—semitism in the labour party are orchestrated by the israeli embassy. that is a conspiracy theory that has absolutely no foundation whatsoever.

if you were a member of thejewish community it would give you little hope that the labour party would deal fairly with allegations of anti—semitism if somebody on its main ruling body, the national executive committee, had those views. it is right that he has been suspended, but the next step for the labour party is to deal with the disciplinary case against him as quickly as possible, otherwise people will have little confidence in our setting ourface people will have little confidence in our setting our face strongly against anti—semitism. in our setting our face strongly against anti-semitism. give me a timeframe. how quickly should this be dealt with, as far as you are concerned? as far as i can see there is nothing to stop this being dealt with within 11! days. there is a tape, the tape needs to be listened to by those considering the case, mr

willsman should be able to put any case he has got, then the body that decides these things can reach a conclusion as to whether or not he should be expelled. in a case of anti—semitism, if it is established that somebody has made clearly anti—semitic remarks, then there should be no place in the labour party, or indeed in any political party, in the united kingdom, for that person. people might listen to this and say why should it even take 14 this and say why should it even take 11! days? if the allegations are out there and it is being publicised, can't it be dealt with just like that? no, i don't think it could, because where an allegation of anti—semitism is made i think somebody against whom the charges levelled should have an opportunity to say what he or she has got by way of defence, if anything. but as a matter of fairness you need to give people that opportunity. people will be thinking, why is it different for someone be thinking, why is it different for someone like alistair campbell, who was thrown out without the

opportunity of any sort of hearing oi’ opportunity of any sort of hearing or opportunity to make representations? i don't think he should have been thrown out because i don't think he is covered by the rule that says you can be automatically excluded for supporting another party. there is a rule in relation to campaigning actively for another party during an election, that allows the party to throw you out automatically, but there is no such rule in relation to somebody who has committed an act of anti—semitism, and the reason for thatis anti—semitism, and the reason for that is that if an allegation of that is that if an allegation of that seriousness is made you should have an opportunity first to make your defence, if you've got one. but it wouldn't take long, and as you have pointed out there is a tape of this — what more is required? well, what is required is an opportunity for pete willsman to make a defensive he has one.|j for pete willsman to make a defensive he has one. i was going to ask you exactly that. you think

labour got it wrong with alistair campbell. how did you vote in the european elections?” campbell. how did you vote in the european elections? i voted labour, but in relation to the beginning of your question, i think they definitely got it wrong in relation to alistair campbell, because the rule that allows for expulsion automatically is if you support actively another candidate in an election. what alistair did was he said — he didn't say vote lib dem before the european elections last thursday week, he voted lib dem, and then when asked on the bbc how he had voted, said he had voted lib dem. i'm sure as a matter of the construction of the rules, it is not an offence or a disciplinary offence to vote for another party as he did. would you expect alistair campbell to be readmitted for his suspension to be readmitted for his suspension to be readmitted for his suspension to be overturned ? to be readmitted for his suspension to be overturned? yes, i would expect his suspension, or his

expulsion, to be overturned, because subsequent to him being expelled, the labour party has made it clear that how you vote is not of itself a reason for throwing somebody out of the labour party. if that were to happen, obviously we are getting two steps ahead, but if that were to happen, this broader question about labour and membership and management of membership, what does it say about the state of the party right now? i think it is an appalling message that alistair has been expeued message that alistair has been expelled for voting liberal democrat. it has not yelled dealt wrongly with the pete willsman case, because i think they have rightly suspended him while the disciplinary process goes ahead, but as i said earlier on, the test now is that if

they quickly and effectively deal with the pete willsman case. if alistair campbell is reinstated into the labour party, and pete willsman is properly dealt with, and from what i have seen he should be expeued what i have seen he should be expelled — if he has some defence like it wasn't him, he should say that, but if he did say that he should be expelled, so there is the opportunity for the labour party to get it right by reinstating alistair and expelling pete willsman. the labour party telus the pete wells and has been suspended pending an investigation and a spokesman says they take allegations of anti—semitism very seriously and it is committed to campaigning against it in all its forms. 17 minutes past seven, time to have a look at this morning is whether. a good morning to you, susan. we have some more photographs from weather watchers to

they are very keen this morning. not surprising because it is a beautiful start to the day, to kelly across the south of the uk. the sun is out and the heat will build in central and the heat will build in central and eastern areas. a short heatwave it will be, temperatures tapering by the time we reach the end of the weekend. here are a couple of our images. a beautiful start in cornwall, more cloud around across parts of the midlands but nonetheless i think you will agree that that is a beautiful sky to start your day with. so where does the warmth come from? from the continent, from iberia and we will see it affecting the southern half of the uk this weekend. however the high pressure that brings us fine weather in the south will give way toa weather in the south will give way to a low coming in from the atlantic tomorrow. that is our changing story as we go through the next 48 hours to hear we are today with high pressure governing the show to the south, some sunshine and plenty of

warmth. further north we have the re m na nts of warmth. further north we have the remnants of weather fronts with more cloud and a cooler day and some drizzly rain for northern england although most of it stays to the west of the pennines. some showers today across the north—west of scotland, perhaps drizzle in the south later on. not a bad evening but overnight rain comes piling in. some heavy rain through the small hours for scotland, further south more showers. a mild night to come, and quite uncomfortable. here is sunday, a low coming in from the atlantic. you can see that eastern england is still ahead of the weather front keeping some warm weather front keeping some warm weather for sunday, perhaps a weather front keeping some warm weatherfor sunday, perhaps a little down on today with temperatures reaching the mid—20s. further west, a more mixed story with showers arriving and some thundery ones through the afternoon through northern ireland and scotland is

persistent rain from earlier breaks up. a breezy day will be noticeable as well. temperature for tomorrow, more widely in perhaps the low 20s and the high teens, still the pocket there across eastern england perhaps reaching the mid—20s. it should be fine until the evening when i weather front will skim through and then we are all back into fresh air for the start of next week. atlantic lows rolling in as well. a mixed story next week as temperatures across the board returned to more average values, perhaps a little below. lookout for showers at times but unfortunately for gardeners and growers i cannot promise you any significant rainfall southern and eastern england where we are falling short at the moment at this point in the season. a little good and a little bad there in the forecast. good weather in store for people watching the champions league final than. for a couple of hours before

it all goes. what is it like being a young woman in the male—dominated world of grime music? that's the question posed in new bbc three reality series, ‘galdem sugar‘. the show follows the lives of five female artists. three of them — laughta, c cane and madders tiff, joined charlie and naga on the sofa earlier in the week — here's how they got on. welcome to london. hopefully this pod cast will help other girls who feel like they are going into something where there are no other females in it. us girls are coming through. what should we discuss? that topic there. everybody always wants us in dresses. it still like this in 2019. seriously?! no way. i'm notjust going to reveal booms and my bum just to get attention. i wa nt and my bum just to get attention. i want my presence to be dealt with.

she raps so three membersjoin us now. laughta c cane and madders tiff. so, who will explain the meaning of that first of all? we are just a group of girls. that is it. there is a man them as well. i had never heard of them as well. i had never heard of them before. i guess it is street lingo. it is just them before. i guess it is street lingo. it isjust a term for the five of you. and can you explain the

scenario? you did not know each other before? before this show?” knew laughta through basketball. pa rt knew laughta through basketball. part of the joys that you come together and bring in different things about your own character is and then discussed. exactly. we did not know each other personally but. me and c cane obviously but we just knew madders tiff on social media.” knew madders tiff on social media.” knew right from previous sets where i would show up and she would be there already. and then i started to meet laughta at events and it was nice because we were individual women and we have come together and we are close now. we are friends. so you have done a series of six pod cast, each with a theme and you discuss what it is like to be a woman in your industry. that is the starting point. and what most people would say is that every industry is ha rd would say is that every industry is hard for women particularly. and

when you think of crime you do not think of women. why? —— grime you do not think of women. why? very male dominated. we want to encourage young girls to —— who look at grime and cedars are male dominated industry, we want them to that we have changed that. laughta, you are very honest about this, about image and the expectation on women in the music industry generally and how that has affected you. it affected mea that has affected you. it affected me a lot at the start and it still does at the moment because you have to maintaina does at the moment because you have to maintain a certain image and on instagram you have to constantly be picture perfect. for me starting in the industry i felt i had to conform and show skin because that is deemed more feminine. you have to be over sexualised. there was pressure but i

thought no, i will rebel, except my floors and go out there and challenge common conceptions of what a female should look like. it is something that runs through amongst the women in the bbc three series as well. and you are all supportive of each other. you all have a friend or a min tour, do you feel you need to be? —— friend or mental. a min tour, do you feel you need to be? -- friend or mental. if i didn't have anyone to talk to i would lose it because there is so much pressure. if it isn't image it is making sure you have enough money and looking after your family. there are so many and looking after your family. there are so many other things you have to take. it is quite personal. many stories are personal to how willingly you... i mean, you talk about a relationship that went south and you were quite upset. my journey i think is about self—0. —— about

loving yourself. i had to love myself and realise myjourney. i know a lot of people are going through that and it is ok. what has been the reaction from men in the grime industry to what you are doing? men in the industry now are more open to females and are supporting them coming through. they are excited. many of the girls can't wait to see. they can't wait to be in it. they are definitely jealous. why is it called spitting? spitting bars or spraying bars?” why is it called spitting? spitting bars or spraying bars? i don't know. why? it is just bars or spraying bars? i don't know. why? it isjust part of the terminology, i guess. why? it isjust part of the terminology, iguess. it's why? it isjust part of the terminology, i guess. it's been like that for years and that is what people say. but look on galdem sugar, you will probably become familiarand sugar, you will probably become familiar and start to use it yourself. exactly. charlie. your

term to spit —— turn to spit. it is about crime but many of the issues you talk about is so relevant. you could look in any workplace and some of the things you talk about about how women are treated have a parallel. it is important to raise awareness of the issues we are touching on and the whole show, the whole series shows that we are real girls with real issues, notjust grime girls trying to make a career. we have personal issues and i'm sure everyone will relate to them. and we are all different so you get different opinions and perceptions so you can understand a bit more. different ages and different backgrounds but with a common goal of being fantastic. more equality for women, we want to change the world... all those things. lovely to see you both. thank you —— lovely to see you both. thank you —— lovely to see you both. thank you —— lovely to see you all here today. you can watch ‘galdem sugar‘ on bbc three on the iplayer

and the podcast is available on bbc sounds. thousands of liverpool and tottenham fans have descended on madrid in preparation for the champions league final this evening. are you 0k? are you ok? i'm fine. just emotional. excitement. my blood pressure. . . emotional. excitement. my blood pressure... it will be a thrilling match. the two premier league sides will meet at the wanda metropolitano stadium, but how are fans back here feeling? 0ur reporter wendy hurrell is in tottenham, we'll speak to her in a moment, but first let's speak to mairead smyth, who's in liverpool for us. good morning. good morning to both of you. i am in and field this morning and the stadium is in the background. full english is on the menu here and on the menu tonight in madrid. firstly, let's hearfrom some of the fans this morning. you

may recognise isaac who was famous last year for your rallying call for the team and you have another one this year? the final last year was horrible. watching madrid lift that trophy, nothing can compare to the. it's our time this year. we know what we've got and that we can challenge. we've shown so many other teams the hard way to do it and i'm sure that tonight you can do it. come on lads, let's do it! and there is nothing, nothing like the signs that go with liverpool. let's have a look at this. — make songs that go with liverpool. that isjust look at this. — make songs that go with liverpool. that is just a little bit of a taste there will be more of that later after eight o'clock. doesn't matter what time of

day or night there is always a party happening, there really is. that's check what is happening in totte n ha m. check what is happening in tottenham. you are in the pub already? 0h, tottenham. you are in the pub already? oh, yes. 0k, liverpool. we see you and we raise you a ukulele banjo musical accompaniment here from the george formby society. we also have cake that is being baked. a famous pub offering refreshments to totte n ha m a famous pub offering refreshments to tottenham hotspur fans for decades. it will get much busier later. today will be hard. we are looking forward to an exciting day. and they are showing the match around the corner in the stadium so i guess we will get people before that? yes. our normal supporters and regulars will be here before,

they'll go to the stadium and then they'll go to the stadium and then they will come back afterwards with a party spirit until one am. it will be a crazy day. tomorrow you also have road closures and parades. yes, all again tomorrow as well. it will be worth it to celebrate. the question is, will your name be on the cup? not my name but it may be totte n ha m. the cup? not my name but it may be tottenham. it would be nice to have it for the local people but we will see how we go. thank you very much. we will play you out i think with a bit of music from the ukulele banjo is in the corner here and this corner will fill up quickly over the next few hours. i'm having flashbacks of champions league final when manchester united lost to barcelona, we watched it in the pub, we had been there all afternoon... i went to the moscow

one, and the wembley one, we had arrived and watched it in the pub, andi arrived and watched it in the pub, and i am already devastated for the side that doesn't win. do you have u kuleles side that doesn't win. do you have ukuleles in your pub? always! if it is like that now, what will it be like by eight o'clock tonight? we will have the headlines in a moment and all the sport. hello, this is breakfast with nina warhurst and jon kay. good morning, here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news: around 70 , 000 liverpool and tottenham hotspur supporters

will be in madrid tonight for only the second ever champions league final to feature two english clubs. if tottenham win, they'll lift their first european cup — liverpool will be hoping they can win their sixth. anna holligan is in madrid for us this morning. we have just been live in liverpool and north london. how are things in madrid? to be honest, i'm surprised there is still anyone in london or liverpool because it feels like they are all here in madrid. still i2 hours to go before kick—off, but of course they are already arriving here at the central square in madrid. we have two fans with us, helen, who has been on an epic journey, and shannon, you two. how did you get here, helen keller by coach from liverpool, set off on wednesday night. i flew from cardiff yesterday, and drove up, it took us seven hours last night. hopefully it

will be a good day. do you feel it has been worth it? yes, worth it. so good to be here. i still can't believe tottenham are in it, to be honest. if you had said to me that we would still be in it i wouldn't have believed you. both of you guys are through to the final against the odds, incredible comebacks in the semifinals, from 3—0 down. it is difficult to talk about statistics here — liverpool probably favourites. it would be your first time ever to lift the champions league trophy. you are 23 now, how much would this mean to you?“ league trophy. you are 23 now, how much would this mean to you? if we lift the cup this evening it will be the best day of my life, 100%. it will mean everything. ijust won't believe it. the atmosphere has been the most striking so far, and the camaraderie. is there a sense that

this is all the more spectacular because it is to english sides in the finalfor because it is to english sides in the final for the first time in more than a decade? i think so, it makes it that little bit extra special. thanks guys, good luck. they are both feeling invincible, but they are also vulnerable because there are also vulnerable because there are touts out here hoping to exploit these passions. neither helen nor shannon have tickets, but being here for many is enough for this once—in—a—lifetime opportunity for some. there is a fence behind you, you can go and sit on that and keep eve ryo ne you can go and sit on that and keep everyone happy! lots of fans arriving. at least 12 people have been killed in a mass shooting in the us state of virginia, after a gunman opened fire in a local government building. police say the suspect, described as a disgruntled employee, died after a shoot out with officers. the state governer described it as "an act of unspeakable, senseless violence". a ban on "unfair" fees charged

by lettings agents in england has come into force today, 2.5 years after the plan was first announced. it means tenants will no longer be billed for things like viewings, credit checks or setting up a tenancy, but there are warnings rents could be pushed up as a result, as landlords try to make up their lost income. the british retail mogul sir philip green has been charged with four counts of misdemeanour assault in the united states. sir philip is the chairman of arcadia group, which owns a number of retail brands including topshop. prosecutors say he has been accused of touching a woman inappropriately while staying at a resort in arizona. a spokesman for sir philip says he's "strenuously denies" the allegations. a man walks into a pub with a gosling and asks for a pint — it might sound like a line from a joke but it's becoming a regular occurance at the kinmel arms tavern in llandyrnog in north wales.

canadian gosling granville was ignored by his parents nesting on a nearby lake, and eventually rescued by local farmer nigel. after two unsuccessful efforts to release him back into the wild, nigel took the baby goose under his wing and he's now becoming a hit with the locals. he does look cosy on that bar top, bless him! i wonder what he likes snacking on — pork scratchings?” hope not, there is something foodchain wrong about that. it is all right when he is a gosling, but not when he is an enormous goose on the bar! he will be hammered by the time the final starts. let's upset everyone, who do you think is going to win?” think it has to be liveable.” who do you think is going to win?” think it has to be liveable. i think liverpool as well. i'm going totte n ha m. liverpool as well. i'm going tottenham. ijust

liverpool as well. i'm going tottenham. i just did liverpool as well. i'm going tottenham. ijust did it. it is different to saying who you support. yes. tottenham haven't spent depending on players, which is extraordinary. to finish in the top four, then to get into the champions league final. i have a feeling we are infor league final. i have a feeling we are in for some sort of treat, later on. it is how much you hold your bottle on an occasion like that, and ijust think bottle on an occasion like that, and i just think liverpool are bottle on an occasion like that, and ijust think liverpool are excellent on big occasions. but look at the tea m on big occasions. but look at the team managers, neither has won a trophy. so much at stake. let's go back to madrid now. it will change for one of those managers, one of them will be ending that record and taking home a trophy this evening from the stadium behind me. we can

speak to jackie wilcox, the president of the madrid supporters clu b president of the madrid supporters club here in the spanish capital. so much to look forward to this evening. how happy were you when you found out that liveable were coming to your new home city? after the trip to kiev last year we thought there was no way we would get to the final, but then we were delighted. the barcelona game was exciting on so the barcelona game was exciting on so many levels but knowing we would be hosting liveable in our hometown was another level. what has jurgen klopp done, especially for the relationship with the club and the fans? it had always been good, but he has galvanised it even more over the last few years. what about his personality dear think has led to that engagement? he gets us, he is as overexcited about everything as we are. i rememberwhen as overexcited about everything as we are. i remember when he first came as liveable manager, he said he wa nted came as liveable manager, he said he wanted to turn everyone from doubters to believers, and he has certainly done that. he is calling it his best team ever, but he has

lost his last six as a manager. does that concern you in anyway? this tea m that concern you in anyway? this team got 97 points in the premier league, but without a trophy would you see it as a disappointing season? i think we have seen incredible things this season, it has been very exciting. the six times doesn't really bother me so much because records are made to be broken. i think we have the best side we have had in a long time, especially comparing it to where we we re especially comparing it to where we were last time and a few years back, how we have progressed is beyond belief. do you think this group of players will have any hangover from the defeat in the final last season? i don't think so, we are faster on defence, we know the defence let us down last year, it was maybe a year to soon. i think we were doing well until mo salah went off. but if you look back to the barcelona game, the last games in the league season, we had so many good games, let's hope

we can do it today. thank you so much forjoining us. lots to look forward to, the final preparations under way behind me. if you've got any stamina left after the champions league final, at about 3:30 tomorrow morning, anthonyjoshua will defend his world heavyweight titles against andy ruinr. the mexican weighed in more than 20 pounds heavier than joshua, although few people are giving him a chance against the man who's yet to be beaten in his professional career a lot of support in britain right now, it's phenomenal. i know there is a job at hand, so i take my training and lifestyle very seriously, and it is about delivering time and time again. tomorrow night, i put the titles in the air and they are up for grabs. the best man wins. if you fancy a major final but can't go to madrid,

how about london instead? twickenham hosts english rugby's premiership final this afternoon. exeter take on saracens in a repeat of last year's showpiece and the 2016 version too. so what has the exeter head coach rob baxter learned from those experiences? maybe just learn to be ourselves a little bit more. last year we were pretty good physically, particularly in the early stages of the game, but where we actually coolheaded and did we see the opportunities that were there in attack and probably in defence? we didn't really, and that is something we have to learn from and move forward, because it doesn't matter how hot the battle gets we need to be able to think clearly as well. johanna konta has become the first british woman since 1983 to reach the last 16 of the french open. the british number one dismantling slovakia's viktoria kuz—mova in straight sets to ease into the second week. konta hadn't even won a main—draw match at the tournament until this year, but she cruised past kuz—mova in under an hour to continue her impressive form on the clay. she faces 24th seed donna vekic from croatia next.

meanwhile in the men's draw, roger federer became the oldest man to reach the fourth round at roland garros in 47 years by beating norwegian casper ruud in straight sets. next for the third seed is argentina's leonardo mayer. warrington are through to the semi finals of rugby league's challenge cup after a hard—fought 28—22 victory over hull kingston rovers. this try from ben currie proved to be the winner for last years beaten finalists. the wolves are nowjust a game away from their third wembley final in four years. tsoday st helens take on wakefield in the last 8 the second game of the cricket world cup was over and done with pretty quickly. the west indies beat pakistan before 2 o'clock in the afternoon at trent bridge. pakistan's batsman really struggled with the windies' fast bowlers and were all out for 105. it didn't take west indies long to wrap things up. nicholas pooran hit the winning runs

with a six to secure a 7 wicket victory. 25 years after his first win at the oaks, the 48—year—old frankie dettori was a winner again — this time on ana—purna. detorri's fifth career win in the race came on the far side, as she held off pink dogswood with fleeting in third. afterwards he described the horse as beautiful and courageous. that's not a bad career. frankie dettori. there is a horse called bangkok, which was bought by the leicester owner who died in the helicopter crash, just before he died. and it is racing this afternoon, so that will be poignant. thank you forjoining us. some of us are going to have a very hot day. that is before the football begins. it is looking very warm, and susan is here to explain. corner will fill up quickly over the

next few hours. a brief heatwave but we anticipate temperatures today in the mid— 20s perhaps even 28 degrees. here we will get the lion share of sunshine as well. not story for all across the northern half of uk more cloud, still a picturesque scene here in glasgow this morning. brightness on the horizon but we will always struggle with more cloud across the northern half of the uk. it is doing its best to get through the cloud in sunderland and a lovely view from the balcony but always up against a weather system from the north—west. in the south, high—pressure throws influence up from the continent and also feeds into warm air. that is saturday. 0n also feeds into warm air. that is saturday. on sunday, low comes in from the atlantic and begins to even the feel. temperatures will ever way but here we are today and for the southern half of the uk a lot of sunshine to come and some significant warmth. for cloud across

north wales and northern england, drizzle to the west of the pennines, thickening cloud for northern ireland and scotland as well, showery across the north—west of scotland. temperatures here mid— high teens at rest that further south we will perhaps see 28 degrees. through the evening a fine story and overnight rain returns to the north and west. persistent and heavy rain for western scotland, a ha rd heavy rain for western scotland, a hard —— hot light across the board, muqqy hard —— hot light across the board, muggy in the south and temperatures no lower than the mid—teens. this is sunday, the low in and it will usher in fresh sunday, the low in and it will usher infresh air. sunday, the low in and it will usher in fresh air. ahead of that, a warm and muggy feel for central and eastern areas of england. brightness is best first thing giving way to hazy skies as the afternoon wears on. showers pushing into the west prom ptly on. showers pushing into the west promptly and rain backing up —— breaking up across scotland but perhaps an

the odd thundery storm. this is a look at the temperature tomorrow. mid-205 look at the temperature tomorrow. mid—20s across eastern england but further west and to the north perhaps mid to high teens at rest. around where we would expect them to be for this time of year. 0nce around where we would expect them to be for this time of year. once it goes through into the continent for monday we feel a more north—westerly air stream so anything next week is on the fresh side with temperatures around average maybe a touch below and it looks a little more u nsettled. and it looks a little more unsettled. quite a few showers around but for gardeners and grower, nothing too significant in the rate —— way of rain on the way. we will keep looking out for you. thank you susan. we will check in later. will tomorrow be muggy, do you know what that means in love ireland terms?“ that means in love ireland terms?“ that when you criticise somebody?m is being dismissive. we will be

talking about the show, love island later. it starts next week —— this week and i am very excited. what a week. love island and donald trump. it's now time for this week's newswatch with samira ahmed. hello and welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. remain parties did well in the eu elections but did bbc news coverage make too much of that, underplaying the success of the brexit party? others have complained and the success of nigel‘s new party new party received too much attention on election night. it was the eu vote that was never meant to happen here. but when the results came in on sunday evening, the bbc election night machine swung into action. over the next few hours,

there was plenty of analysis and interpretation of the results. at a quarter past one in the morning, huw edwards asked laura kuenssberg where she thought things stood. laura, so far, what are our headline thoughts? brexit party the clear winners. maximising the inheritance they got from ukip. they have been outperforming ukip in these elections. really squeezing the tories. terrible result for them as a governing party. in fifth right now. no doubt about the big losers on the night, but the emphasis on the brexit party as the clear winners annoyed some of their opponents. susan thought there was another fairer way of looking at the outcome. and recorded this video of her thoughts when watching on monday morning. four parties were leading with a pro—eu anti—brexit message. the lib dems, the greens, plaid cymru, change uk, these parties secured at this point in time 38% of the vote

and their vote share went up. it is a shame they didn't have a formal remain alliance as they discussed and maybe you could have reported it better but it's still obvious. the brexiteers, nigel‘s brexit party and his old ukip party got 36.8% of the vote. they got a bit less of the total vote. i know that brexit got meps, but you could've highlighted the strong remain vote more clearly. you didn't cover the lib dem and green party successes nearly enough this morning. the aggregate vote won by the remaining supporting parties may not have been given enough priority for some viewers, but it was covered on bbc news, including in this report from tom barton. it wasn'tjust a good night for the brexit party. those standing on a clear remain platform also made a great leap forward. the greens beat the conservatives into fourth place.

a champagne moment for the liberal democrats. coming in second with 20% of the vote. but the adding together of remain parties' vote share a majority over leave parties as shown in this graphic which appeared on the bbc news website prompted objections from the other side. william spotted the graph did not count the conservatives in the leave total. brexit party supporters had other objections. 0ne about the makeup of the studio panel on the overnight programme.

about which a twitter user posted this... and there were also complaints about this comment from laura kuenssberg. they are clearly going to seek some kind of role, we know that nigel farage is extremely good at making his case to the public in a way that appeals to a certain kind of voter. he has done that again. susan lovett had this response. plenty to talk about that with the bbc head of news—gathering

jonathan munroe whojoins me now. thank you for coming on. we know brexit really divides people. no surprise there are different complaints, and the bbc can deal with each one by one. specifically let's start with the graphic of pro and anti—brexit votes aggregated. you left the conservatives out of the pro brexit in tally. that was wrong, wasn't it? one of a whole range of data we did on the numbers. as you remember, it was online for a while and refers to that at no stage a major part of our coverage and i don't think anybody watching our coverage can think we were saying anything other than the brexit party had did well. the conservatives specifically didn't issue a manifesto. so it was difficult for us to make an exception. —— an assumption that people voted conservative specifically on that policy. where the brexit party, change uk and other people who advocated a so—called people's vote were campaigning specifically on that issue. why were you doing leave and remain

tallies of votes anyway? it actually was not a referendum. even if the brexit was an issue, people were voting on parties. they were voting on parties and a lot of our coverage broke down party by party right up to the small parties. any election has a range of data that you can carve in comparison to previous elections or in this case, the leave/remain referendum that we had three years ago now. nothing wrong with giving people a snapshot of how the uk votes based on those intentions and how they compared with the last time we went to the polls specifically on the europe issue. which was a referendum. except it created confusion because people are saying you didn't put the conservatives in what you should have done and maybe if you stuck to party lines, they wouldn't be any complaints. the vast majority of our coverage sticks to party lines with the brexit party showing clearly as the winner. i don't really think taking on the coverage of the whole anybody could be any doubt we report absolutely fairly completely straightly that the brexit party was the winner of this election. they were.

there were a lot of complaints that the bbc gave the top headline to nigel farage and his party over the success of remain parties. that wasn't the best topic headline. that is the opposite complaint to the other one. we are getting complaint from both sides but there are specific complaints. i have never been satisfied with the idea because we are getting complaints from both sides, everything is all right. that is not good enough. it presupposes that people are not right and complaints specifically will be. we will have a good case for that. it shows the polarisation of the audience which reflects a polarisation of the electorate. nigel farage headlining the programme on a day when his party was only six weeks old winning an election of england and wales at a reasonable editorial call. and labour, why haven't you got a brexit party person in the studio the studio, dominated by the two

parties, the conservatives and labour, why haven't you got a brexit party person in the studio or more of a liberal democrats? two points on that if i may. the first is the clip we just saw your introduction show the panel at one moment in time during a five hour programme. the panel changed significantly during the night. liberal democrats were on the panel. not in the clip you showed. we also interviewed sir ed davey down the line. he works remotely on the camera outside the studio. 0n the brexit party, most of the people who wanted to speak, were in a location because they were candidates. they were interviewed on the programme. we heard the acceptance speech from the programme. they were there because they were candidates which we cannot control. but where they are does not make difference to how much prominence they get in the running order. pro—leave voters, regularly complain bbc coverage is biased against them. many did think that it crossed a line when laura kuenssberg referred to nigel farage knowing how to appeal to a certain kind of voter. what did she mean? i wasn't in her thinking at the time. it was a live programme. it went on for five hours.

you could use that phrase to apply to any loyal supporter of any party. a certain type of voter will vote for the snp or the greens or the conservatives. nothing bad implied by that. some did. what do you think she meant by that? i don't think they should think she meant anything. she has been covering this saga for years now. incredibly carefully. about the way she politicians describes of any colour whether they are leave or remain or somewhere in between. there was nothing meant by that comment. thank you. it is a week since theresa may's emotional speech in downing street announcing the date that she would be stepping down as conservative party leader. and a week until she actually does so. but before she actually stepped out of number 10 to address the nation. this man set up the podium. he was swiftly dubbed hot sound guy on social media.
