9:02 am
good morning and welcome to bbc news. liverpool have become european champions for the sixth time after beating tottenham in last night's champions league final. the reds won the game in madrid 2—0 to givejurgen klopp his first trophy as liverpool boss. our correspondent david ornstein was at the game. back in possession of the trophy they have come to love the most, a club defined by european success doing what they do best. the one thing missing from liverpool's resurgence under jurgen klopp was silverware. now, they have a piece — arguably the greatest of the lot. fans converged on the spanish
9:03 am
capital in tens of thousands, for only the second all—english final, but no sooner had the teams taken to their stage had the drama began, liverpool given a penalty inside 30 seconds. moussa sissoko punished for use of the arm, mohamed salah merciless from the spot. and he scores! and liverpool make the perfect start. spurs simply had to raise their level and finally they did. through a combination of acrobatics and some poor finishing, it cost them dear. it's moments like these on which these ties often turn, and so it was when divock origi settled the contest. an unlikely hero on the journey here, perhaps it was fitting that the belgian should have the last say, creating a sea of celebration,
9:04 am
more history for liverpool. tonight is really emotional. that is my main feeling. overwhelming, all that stuff, it feels really good, but i am much calmer than i thought i would be when it finally happened, so it was not important to me really to touch the cup, or whatever. i love the pictures when the boys had it, i loved it when i saw some faces in the stands, that is what gave me everything i need. well, it wasn't the spectacle many hoped for nor an amazing advert for premier league football, butjurgen klopp and his players won't care less. for tottenham, there will be questions, especially over the future of boss mauricio pochettino, but as for liverpool, they are no longer the nearly men, they are champions of europe. hugh woozencroft is at the stadium in madrid, the scene of liverpool's triumph, and anna holligan is in central
9:05 am
madrid, where fans have been celebrating all night. first of all, the early goal by liverpool should have been a warning. yes, in fact, an incredible build—up to kick—off and immediately i guess it was extinguished, things died down inside the stadium behind me after the penalty from mohamed salah took the sting out of the game. low quality affair, will not live long in the memory for anyone apart from the liverpool fans. great day forjuergen klopp, the manager, almost seen as a nearly man having lost six consecutive finals as a manager. he said basically after the six finals, he took his family on holiday and said he had taken them silver medals, he did not want to do that anymore. he will have a great summer that anymore. he will have a great summer with his family. his first trophy as the manager of liverpool. mauricio pochettino went into the game looking for his first trophy as
9:06 am
the spurs manager but there will be big questions over where they go from here because things seem great, brand—new stadium, the team has played very well, but they have not signed a player in the past two tra nsfer signed a player in the past two transfer windows. mauricio pochettino asking to be packed going forward , pochettino asking to be packed going forward, they will need to invest in quality, but in particular in depth and size of the squad. he has been seen and size of the squad. he has been seen as a and size of the squad. he has been seen as a future manager for many of europe's elite clubs, such as his reputation. to hold onto him would bea reputation. to hold onto him would be a coup. he says it is a shame they did not get the result they wa nted they did not get the result they wanted in the final but he is proud of his players and he hopes they can come back to this kind of affair again very soon. in some ways, it makes such a difference because you s0 makes such a difference because you so often see managers punished, even when overall they have done pretty well. that doesn't seem to be the case this time. no, it will not be.
9:07 am
both managers are pretty much seen as legends at the moment in terms of their respective clubs. juergen klopp winning the title last night underlined what we saw a few years ago when he took over the job, such ago when he took over the job, such a big reputation, he has delivered the biggest trophy, they will be looking for a premier league title, they accrued 97 points this year but not enough to stop manchester city from winning the league. spurs have reached next season's champions league, consolidation for them, reached next season's champions league, consolidation forthem, but a trophy is what they really want, it has an excellent side under mauricio pochettino, he will be pressed to deliver that going forward. he said if he did win last night, he might have retired. i guess he will keep going in north london and tried to deliver what they so dearly. thank you. let us speak to anna and centrum madrid —— central madrid. they have been
9:08 am
partying all night long in the spanish capital. when they arrived, still singing songs. really interesting blend this morning, you have tourists, police, fans who have not been to bed, some who have come back again early and refreshed, still running on the adrenaline from last night. there has been talk of how the game was never going to live up how the game was never going to live up to expectations but what will go down in history is the behaviour of the fans, rivalries aside, the camaraderie has been really spectacular. great for english football. i want to speak to two fans, simon wilson and his friend, richard, who have travelled all the way, simon you are inside the ground, tell me about yourjourney, it has been remarkable for everyone here but yours in particular. crazy, we bought a £40 car, drove down from
9:09 am
enfield to the stadium in madrid, took us two and a half days. —— from anfield. great journey took us two and a half days. —— from anfield. greatjourney down. took us two and a half days. —— from anfield. great journey down. here you are, tottenham, meant to be your first ever trophy in the champions league, how are you feeling, still smiling? you have got to smile, we will come back stronger. crying inside. we will come back next year, we will be back here again and we will do it next time. that spirit has been on show right throughout the weekend. do you think it is something that fans recognise how special this is, to have two english sides in the final for the first time in more than a decade? definitely, amazing. tottenham and liverpool and fans singing together, it has been a great atmosphere in the city, so grateful to be able to have this experience. later on today, of course, the victory
9:10 am
parade. through the streets of liverpool. how will it feel? the sixth time liverpool have lifted this trophy. is that showing wearing off? no, we need to get the seventh now, next year, three finals in a i’ow. now, next year, three finals in a row. i am just... now, next year, three finals in a row. iamjust... the now, next year, three finals in a row. i am just... the £40 car cannot get us back to liverpool for the parade! thank you very much. two of 70,000 or more fans who have travelled all the way from the uk for the day. now quite happy to bask in the glory in the sunshine. the exodus has begun, as you can see behind, lots of the taxis and buses carrying people back to the airport. the victory parade in liverpool will be at 4pm this afternoon and there has been so much commendable behaviour. police were very clear about what their intentions were.
9:11 am
the idea was to have the funds separate. they were very clear on the message. 0nly separate. they were very clear on the message. only a handful of arrests —— have the fans. there were songs, a few incidents of cheerful jostling of each other, but it really has been quite a memorable occasion for all the right reasons. it is pleasant to say here in madrid. 0ne message has come from totte n ha m to madrid. 0ne message has come from tottenham to the supporters. they say the journey was incredible, the memories will live with us forever. iam glad memories will live with us forever. i am glad everybody is so happy, even those who did not when finding something good to celebrate. thank you. anna holligan in madrid. president trump has made another intervention into british politics, saying the uk should be prepared to leave the eu without a deal. in an interview with the sunday times, mr trump said that if britain did not get what it
9:12 am
wanted in talks with brussels, it should walk away. the us president has made the comments ahead of his arrival in the uk tomorrow for a three—day state visit. i'm joined by our poltical correspondent susana mendonca. inevitable journalists will ask his view on brexit, whether everyone wa nts to view on brexit, whether everyone wants to hear it or not. state visits are supposed to be diplomatic affairs, they are not supposed to get into the realms of politics, but on the company against convention and expressing his views. 0n the idea of no—deal brexit, he is saying if britain cannot get the deal it once, it should go for no deal. that is something i think will probably help those vying for the tory leadership who want there to be a no deal brexit, want to keep no deal on the table, they can say, we have the us president saying he would do a free trade deal with us. then you have also got him talking about nigel farage, something that will not go down well with conservatives
9:13 am
because he is saying nigel farage, leader of the brexit party who beat the tories and came first in the european elections last week, somebody who should be sending for the negotiations with the eu, a very controversial comment. in terms of the divorce bill, 39 billion britain are supposed to pay to the eu if it does the deal theresa may was talking about, he is saying britain should not pay the eu that money. no deal are supposed to be temporary, s0 deal are supposed to be temporary, so how it works, i do not know. three years ago barack 0bama was criticised as a foreign leader interfering in british affairs. exactly. donald trump was critical of that and back than it was a different tone because barack 0bama talked about how britain would be back of the queue for a trade deal with the us if it was to leave the eu and now you have donald trump taking a different view. certainly, there will be those who say, why are you interfering in british affairs,
9:14 am
delving into this? on the issue of the 39 billion, britain does not pay the 39 billion, britain does not pay the 39 billion, wants to do a trade deal with the eu, they may say, what about the 39 billion? is it helpful? probably not. donald trump likes to make his views known. he is known for making all sorts of comments about things and just yesterday he was talking about who he thought would be the good tory leader, delving into that political issue in britain as well. let us hear a bit of what he has been saying to the sunday times. we can work on it very, very quickly. there is tremendous potential of trade with you and the united states. they've wanted to do trade, but they've never had a president like me that, you know, understands how good... you think a matter of months? yeah, i'd go all out. it would be a great, great advantage for uk. as you say, yesterday, talking about which of the conservative party leadership contenders he liked the look of. he described boris johnson
9:15 am
as being an excellent choice, boris johnson former foreign secretary, mayor of london, someone who donald trump mayor of london, someone who donald tru m p clearly mayor of london, someone who donald trump clearly admires. i found that quite interesting because i remember covering boris johnson quite interesting because i remember covering borisjohnson as mayor of london in 2015 when donald trump made comments about london having no go areas and at the time boris johnson said it demonstrated stupefying ignorance that meant donald trump was not fit for the office of president, not sure if thatis office of president, not sure if that is something donald trump is aware of. boris johnson, that is something donald trump is aware of. borisjohnson, he said he was an excellent choice, he has commended jeremy hunt as well, current foreign secretary, who yesterday said he is proud to have a positive relationship with the united states. we understand he has been critical of michael gove, and leadership candidate, but as far as the white house is concerned, they have indicated the president is not endorsing anyone, but speaking about these people are there are some more
9:16 am
that he likes. former universities minister has thrown his hat into the ring. interesting. someone who has a lwa ys ring. interesting. someone who has always been in favour of another referendum, described it as being the only option, and he has said he would push for another referendum and he is the only candidates over who has put themselves forward who is being very vocal about that specific pledge, going for another referendum. i think he is probably the 13th, if my maths is right, a candidate who has put himself forward. many of them, people like borisjohnson, talking forward. many of them, people like boris johnson, talking about forward. many of them, people like borisjohnson, talking about this idea of keeping no deal on the table and leaving on the 31st of october. some are suggesting they would want to do some are suggesting they would want todoa some are suggesting they would want to do a deal, suggesting there might be an extension beyond that, but here we have a candidate actually saying he would want to have another referendum which is a complete departure. whether it goes down well with the tory membership is another matter because we understand they
9:17 am
are perhaps a bit more in favour of the idea of having some kind of deal or no deal, the idea of another referendum might be a difficult sell. i'm sure we will be talking later, thank you. the search for eight climbers missing in the himalayas is expected to resume in the next few hours. the group, which includes four britons, began the climb up india's second highest mountain, nanda devi, almost three weeks ago, but failed to return to base camp. rebecca hartmann reports. it is known as one of the toughest climbs in the himalayas. at an imposing 7,000 metres, nanda devi is the second highest mountain in india. and, now, eight climbers are missing three weeks after they started to climb. the aim of the expedition was the east peak of nanda devi, which lies close to the border with china. they were to take a route along the north—east ridge, which has never been successfully climbed before. it is very technical, meaning you are notjust walking on a path, you are using ice axes,
9:18 am
when it is icy it might turn into rock when you have to climb differently, so you are using multiple skills at one time to scale the mountain. it is a very challenging mountain even by its more common route. this is a mountain that has only seen 13 or 14 successful expeditions since it was first climbed in 1936. the rescue effort had to be paused due to harsh weather conditions. local officials fear they may have been hit by an avalanche. this comes at the end of what has been a particularly deadly climbing season in the himalayas. at least 11 people have died on the nepalese side of mount everest so far this year. many have blamed overcrowding for the high death toll after this photo showing heavy crowds taken at the summit went viral. the bbc‘s yogita limayejoins us from the foothills of the indian himalayas
9:19 am
what's the approach being taken to the search because at times, the weather hasn't been in the favour of rescuers? that's right, the indian air forcejoined the rescuers? that's right, the indian air force joined the search operation this morning, flying two helicopters over the area to try and see if they can locate the climbers. we are expecting some information from them in the next few hours. but it's unclear, you know, for that they would have spotted anything or not. this team was supposed to return to base camp on friday and when that didn't happen, the first search team was sent from a village which is a 2—3 day trek from base camp. another team was sent from a place higher than base camp as well. that team reached base camp last night but there and so there is still no information about these eight climbers. what we know is they started their expedition on the 13th
9:20 am
of may, on the 22nd of may they posted on facebook from the second base camp, that is at a height of more than 4700 metres, the whole mountain is more than 7800 metres high. and so the 22nd of may there was that post, since then people have been trying to get in touch with them, get any information and today, helicopters doing the rounds today, helicopters doing the rounds to see if they can locate them. what sort of experience would you expect to have as a climber to tackle this particular manton? among the mountaineering community and i've been speaking to climbers, they say it's considered one of the toughest mountains in the indian himalayas to climb. that's part of the reason why it actually attracts very few mountaineers compared to other himalayan mountains in india or nepal. you would see mount everest which has more than 300 people trying to make the summit every year. here, in contrast, you might
9:21 am
not even some years see an expedition at all or you mightjust see one team going up or perhaps two teams going up but we know this year, from the government, about 12 people were given a permit to go up the mountain, four of them were a p pa re ntly the mountain, four of them were apparently not trying to submit it, it was this team of eight that was going there, led by martin moran, a very experienced uk mountaineer. three other british nationals, two from america, one female australian climber and one liaison officer from the indian government given to every foreign expedition in the indian mountains. thank you very much. boxing now — and there's been a huge upset at new york's madison square garden. britain's heavyweight champion anthonyjoshua has been beaten by his mexican opponent andy ruinunior. the ref stepped in to stop the fight in the seventh round. joshua was expected to win the bout
9:22 am
— and this is his first defeat. ruiz becomes the first mexican to win the heavyweight championship — a fact not lost on the boxer who was a huge underdog. we've been working really hard, man, really hard, and i feel i wanted to prove everybody wrong, all the doubters, thinking that i was going to lose in the third round, the first round. i was looking at comments as well. but what do you know, man? i'm the first mexican heavyweight champion of the world. cheering. the home secretary, sajid javid, has said the number of migrants attempting to cross the channel to reach the uk is "deeply concerning". yesterday, 74 people on eight boats tried to make the crossing when they were intercepted by the uk border force off the south coast. a criminal investigation is now under way. funeral plan providers are set to be regulated by the independent financial watchdog for the first time under new government plans. it follows complaints some
9:23 am
people are being pushed into buying products they don't fully understand. those found guilty of bullying people into buying expensive pre—paid plans could face fines and criminal charges. there is some evidence of, for example, up selling, where consumers have been pressurised into purchasing a more expensive funeral plan than they might either want or need. there have been issues around, for example, hidden management charges, so it is just not clear to consumers exactly how much money is going to the funeral plan provider for administering the plan. a leading democratic nominee in the us 2020 presidential election was interrupted on—stage by a protester at an event in california last night. senator kamala harris was answering a question on equal pay when a man
9:24 am
came and took her microphone from her. hey! hey! the protester — a 24—year—old animal rights activist named aidan cook — said he wanted her attention for a "much bigger idea" than the pay gap. social media users have been quick to point out the irony of a man interrupting ms harris whilst she was discussing her plans for equality. 0rganisers of the california event have apologised. fridges and air conditioning units are responsible for a fifth of the world's carbon dioxide emissions. now, scientists think they might have come up with a solution to make them better for the environment — and a balloon has provided inspiration for the idea. 0ne fifth of the world's energy goes on running fridges and air—conditioning units. they are often inefficient, energy hungry and can leak greenhouse gases into the air. demonstrate it quickly. so now a cambridge team...
9:25 am
it's gone really hot! ..has come up with an alternative. and then... it's really cold! that's amazing. i will explain the balloon thing in a second. first, you need to know that fridges and air—conditioning units currently work by expanding and then squashing gases. the cambridge team is looking to replace that gas with more eco—friendly solids. it is complex work but you can show it with a simple experiment and a thermal camera. like with a balloon, if you expand the new materials quickly, they go white, which means hot. squash them quickly and they go black, which means cold. here are some of the materials they hope will one day replace the gases in the back of ourfridges. so, they'll load them into the machine and then squeeze them and stretch them to see what happens. so, the impact can be potentially tremendous because if we can actually find a solid material to replace the gases we use in vapour compression fridges and air—conditioning systems,
9:26 am
we can hope to have a technology that is both environmentally friendly and much more energy efficient. they have developed organic materials that workjust as well as gas but without the potentially harmful leakage. it's still early days, but it could lead to fridges and aircon units that devour much less energy and are better for the environment. richard westcott, bbc news, cambridge. let's take a look at some other headlines. a bomb found under a serving police officer's car at a golf club in belfast is being treated as attempted murder. police suspect dissident republicans planted the device. the course in east belfast was evacuated, and army bomb disposal experts were called to the scene the brazilian football star, neymar, has strongly denied an accusation that he raped a woman in paris. in a brazilian police report, the woman alleges that the attack took place in a hotel, near where neymar plays for paris st—germain.

up—to—date public information film featuring the cleveland way and somehow over the last 50 years the route has become longer without actually adding any extra miles. back in 1969 the route was described as being 98 miles long and now we talk about it being 109 miles and actually, it's the same route but they didn't used to count the urban stretches so the bits through whitby and scarborough didn't count because maybe they didn't think the urban bits were important. i've always been a walker and it's one of the most beautiful parts of the world and it's right next door to where i live. we walked parts of the cleveland way before and we just love the scenery and the coastline is absolutely gorgeous. it's very, very dramatic and you're right on the edge of it all the time, it's wonderful. and, of course, the route has plenty to offer inland as well. archive: medieval monks peopled this once proud abbey. it's a big thing, people actually
