10:02 am
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 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 political correspondent susana mendonca. time was when convention said that you did not answer questions like this. exactly, because it is a diplomatic visit so should be treated in that way but this is donald trump you're talking about and he is delving into politics yet again, so what he's saying today as he is basically saying if britain does not get what britain considers to bea does not get what britain considers to be a fair deal, it should walk away from a with the european union so away from a with the european union so effectively promoting the idea of a no—deal brexit which might go down well with some who are advocating thatis well with some who are advocating that is a realistic option but for others they would see this as an unnecessary intervention but not just that, he is saying that nigel
10:03 am
farage, the leader of the brexit party, should be brought into negotiations between britain and the european union which is unlikely to go down well with conservatives because of course the brexit party beat them in the election, they got a lot of votes that would have may become from the conservative voters but this is what donald trump is saying. we can work on a very, very quickly. this potential of trade with the united kingdom and united states. they wanted to do trade but they've never had a president like me. i would go all out and it would bea me. i would go all out and it would be a great advantage to the uk. there was an opportunity of course in donald trump as my isa britain left without a deal because it has an application for trade between the us and uk, and you have donald trump they are talking about this potential for a trade deal with the us. for him, we know he is someone who does not like having to do trade
10:04 am
deals with big country so you see him having his trade war at the moment with china, mexico and he is uncomfortable with the european union, so the idea of britain leaving the european union would be trading with a smaller partner so, from donald trump is my perspective, you can see what the benefit of that would be and for those of us talking about britain outside the european union doing deals with big economies, here we have donald trump saying that within months of britain leaving the eu, he would be willing to do leaving the eu, he would be willing todoa leaving the eu, he would be willing to do a deal so they can play to their favour, those calling for a no—deal brexit. their favour, those calling for a no-deal brexit. yesterday he was giving his views on some of the candidates in the conservative party leadership race and we have had a 13th person throw the name into the race today. you might yesterday donald trump was talking about how he thought that boris johnson donald trump was talking about how he thought that borisjohnson would be an excellent choice, he also had warm words about jeremy be an excellent choice, he also had warm words aboutjeremy hunt, and so
10:05 am
i suppose intervening in that area of british politics as well and some will say he should not be intervening in that but we have had a13 intervening in that but we have had a 13 person put their name forward asa a 13 person put their name forward as a potential candidate to replace theresa may, and that is sam gyimah. he isa theresa may, and that is sam gyimah. he is a former universities minister and he has talked about something none of the others have spoken about thus far, which is the idea of another referendum. he is saying we should put it back to the people and there should be three options on that ballot paper, either people go for the withdrawal agreement as was agreed by theresa may, they go for a no—deal brexit or they revoke article 50 and he says this is the only way to bring the country together and the reason he is putting himself forward as he wants to broaden the debate within the conservative party. i will be joining the contest to be the next conservative leader and prime minister to broaden the race. as you mentioned, there is a wide range of candidates out there but there is a very narrow set of views on brexit being discussed. over the last few
10:06 am
weeks, i have been talking to collea g u es weeks, i have been talking to colleagues in frustration and while there is a broad sweep of opinion in there is a broad sweep of opinion in the country on how we move forward at this critical time, that is not being reflected in the contest at the moment. sam gyimah. with so many people already saying they want to run for the leadership copier you would think the contest had opened —— leadership contest, you would think. no, it has not. so many names forward with sam gyimah being the 13th but it only formally opens on monday because theresa may only formally announces she is standing down on friday of this week after the state visit from the us president and so, at that point, we could get, between now and then we will probably get some more names in the mix but who knows how many you could end up with and then there was a period of time where they have various contests where the tory mps will basically decide which ones get whittled down to the final two and
10:07 am
thenit whittled down to the final two and then it goes to the conservative membership, they are at somewhere between on the hundred thousand and 160,000 tory members in the membership. then they will decide who becomes tory leader and we expect that to be some time before the 26th ofjuly. expect that to be some time before the 26th ofjuly. for the moment, thank you very much. 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 underjurgen klopp was silverware. now they have a piece — arguably the greatest of the lot. fans converged on the spanish capital in tens of thousands,
10:08 am
or only the second all english final, but no sooner had the teams take into their stage than the drama began, liverpool given a penalty of 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 the 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 outcome. an unlikely hero on the journey here, perhaps it was fitting that the belgian should have the last say, creating a sea of celebration, more
10:09 am
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 a spectacle many hoped for or 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, but champions of europe. anna holligan is in central madrid, where fans have been celebrating all night.
10:10 am
you were late to bed and up early, i'm sure others are in the same position today. this competition, this final, has really transformed the face of madrid. there are signs all over the city, the most prestigious, biggest trophy in club football. there's been a lot of talk about how it was never really going to live up to the high expectations, what was happening on the pitch, however what will go down in the memories here is the behaviour of fans, the camaraderie, putting you rivalries aside and what better example of this than the way they have been standing side by side, and we have a perfect demonstration here. your experience of this has been remarkable, the way the fans have conducted themselves, changing the reputation of british football supporters abroad. definitely. on the first night we were out here, a
10:11 am
bit of glass went up my shoe, through my food and that was five scouse girls who took me in, dressed up my scouse girls who took me in, dressed up my foot, took the glass out, looked after me. is that helping to not feel the pain as much as you might otherwise have done given that this was your opportunity to lift the trophy for the first time in tottenham's history? no. not really but everyone last night was shaking hands, saying things like the best team didn't wind. it was not the greatest final but he got there and did what we did. supporters have been great. fair play to liverpool, cannot fault them. do you think it is the first time we have seen two english clubs in this final for the first time in more than a decade? definitely. we were in the bar yesterday and it was just good banter all the way. not one bit of trouble, which is refreshing for a final. i know we get a bad reputation in our country but this
10:12 am
was brilliant, everyone was friendly and everyone was happy. yellow might you help to change that and everyone is losing the voices, that's what you notice on both sides. that is universal. out of the field today going home with this —— not going home with the bit of silverware? gutting but it's been a great trip. maybe next year. as your boss says, let's talk about six, baby. how does it feel? amazing. i need to go home and to teach english tomorrow it may be no voice but number six is really good. fair play to tottenham. we had loads of spurs fans in the bar, they we re loads of spurs fans in the bar, they were crying and we were in arms consoling them because last year was painful for me so i know what it's like for them painful for me so i know what it's like forthem in painful for me so i know what it's like for them in a way but onwards and upwards. for both english teams, i think it is fantastic. the two english teams in the europa league and champions league, great for english football. well done, lads,
10:13 am
water and occasion. of course there will be the victory parade through the streets of liverpool at 4pm today. tottenham, the message from the club has been sent out to fans on twitter, saying the journey was incredible, the memories will live with us for ever and that is certainly true of the 70,000, more than 70,000 supporters who made the journey over here to the spanish capital. the influx over, the exodus is beginning now. the streets around the square, the palace behind us all packed with taxis heading back to the uk. expect to see lots of jubilant and some slightly disappointed supporters arriving backin disappointed supporters arriving back in the uk shortly. we should be able to tell one from the other quite easily, i imagine. 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
10:14 am
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 7000 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, 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 1a successful expeditions
10:15 am
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. mark charlton is the president of british mountain guides which has been liasing with the foreign office. hejoins us now on he joins us now on the line. hejoins us now on the line. thank you very much forjoining us. how are you supporting the families of those who are waiting for word from the himalayas? so i am relaying
10:16 am
information from the indian government by the british government to the foreign office. i am trying to the foreign office. i am trying to give accurate information as it develops. what is the light your hearing? —— what is the latest your hearing? —— what is the latest your hearing? in terms of on the ground, an army team have been deployed and at 6:35am local time, the local magistrate requested and got a flight magistrate requested and got a flight in from the airport and they have not reported back yet but the information is that the team were seen information is that the team were seen on information is that the team were seen on the mountain but we do not know much more than that. what are the challenges of first of all climbing nanda devi and then trying to mount a search attempt? well, i've never actually find it myself,
10:17 am
but climbing any mountain is a mixture of planning, the weather has to be right, the mountain has to be right. the team are out there at the correct time, with a good team leader on there. yes, people speak very highly of martin moran, his experience and people being were in good hands with him. yes, martin has done a lot of climbs and other regions and places in the world and he isa regions and places in the world and he is a world leader in this sort of thing. what is the information you will be wanting to hear that what you optimistic? optimistic information would be a sighting of any evidence that people are still around and available to help themselves on the mountain. at the
10:18 am
moment, i the conditions up there are hampering the efforts that are being made. as far as i know, you helicopter has gone in and managed to get in the air. any sort of poor weather on mountains would actually hamper it. tell us, march, generally speaking, how popular are the himalayas these days, notjust with really seasoned mountaineers but those who have the money to attempt something that may be too much of a challenge. or mountains are a challenge. or mountains are a challenge. but the more challenging ones have become incredibly popular. highly experienced mountaineers to
10:19 am
just people who want a personal challenge to have a go at climbing a mountain, isa challenge to have a go at climbing a mountain, is a thing to do as it were. how... how clear, how appropriate are the safety measures and the guidance in place in places like india that make sure you are climbing something that is actually within your reach? there is no regulation as such in any part of the himalayas. they would have to apply to be a team leader and making their ownjudgment as apply to be a team leader and making their own judgment as to what their own experiences and objectives are for that. if you have a climber in yourfamily, i
10:20 am
for that. if you have a climber in your family, i guess for that. if you have a climber in yourfamily, i guess every time for that. if you have a climber in your family, i guess every time they go out to the mountains, you worry. probably not, depends how much knowledge you've got of it. mountains are dangerous places but most of the time it is a really pleasa nt most of the time it is a really pleasant time and it is a great experience to pursue. lets hope for good news soon. thank you very much for talking to us. thank you. sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's will perry. yes, one of the heaviest upsets in boxing history when anthonyjoshua was knocked out by andy ruiz boxing history when anthonyjoshua was knocked out by andy ruinr, the first defeat in his professional career in his 23rd fight. the mexican taking three of anthony joshua's titles from him.
10:21 am
mexican taking three of anthony joshua's titles from him. the general consensus is that this fight would not go the distance but no one thought it would be anthonyjoshua being counted out. you looked out of sorts from the opening bell, started very slowly and he did put and the ruse during your down in the —— he did put andy ruiz ruse during your down in the —— he did put andy ruinr down one spot he was dropped four times in total before the referee stopped it. stunning upset, one of the biggest in heavyweight boxing history and the question is what does he do now? promoter eddie hearn says he wants him to exercise a rematch because and face andy ruiz him to exercise a rematch because and face andy ruinr in the uk. anthonyjoshua said he wants to face deontay wilder but he is already booked for a match later this year and tyson fury later this year. —— later next year. so it would be late next year if that was to happen. he has to figure out what went wrong this evening but for andy ruiz has to figure out what went wrong
10:22 am
this evening but for andy ruinr, what a performance, he makes history by becoming the first heavyweight champion in the world from mexico and he said his life will change forever. anthonyjoshua and he said his life will change forever. anthony joshua was and he said his life will change forever. anthonyjoshua was supposed to make a big splash in his first fight as a professional at this iconic venue. it has featured some of the great fighters in history but it did not have the ending he expected. i wanted to prove everybody wrong. 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. andy mentioned these two guys, contrasting views on social media.
10:23 am

10:24 am
future is bright. this is only the start for this group, it is still a wonderful age group, they still have the best times of their career ahead of them, so that is big for me. i'm really happy. i have a lot of silver medals and now i have a golden one so that will go next to the silver medals in my house and that is cool. let's go live to madrid. we just heard from jurgen klopp there, he has proven a lot of the doubters wrong, hasn't he? yes, he came into this match as a bit of a nearly man tag over his head despite last night being his fourth major trophy one and that is because, as he alluded to there, six consecutive finals in a row lost. after the match, he said he expressed emotional relief not just for himself but especially his family because after those finals where he had been defeated, he brought them home silver medals and, in his words, thatjust did not feel cool in his words, thatjust did not feel cool. it's a gold medal, as he mentioned, to take him to his family
10:25 am
and afterwards he said it was the best night of his professional career as he gives liverpool that six european cup final, putting them right up there among the greats, even further among the greats just behind real madrid and ac milan on the all—time list. but again for jurgen klopp, that nearly man tag is gone and he is a liverpool legend. looking at spurs, a great season for them by what a lot of the focus will be on whether mauricio pochettino got it right and should have picked harry kane. yes, the big? going into the match, with you start with harry kane or bring him from the bench? kane or bring him from the bench? kane said he was ready for the match but he did not look up to it at all. mauricio pochettino looking to start him, played all of the match, was not moving to welcome a very gingerly, not a single shot on target and it was a big decision, not going spurs' way and there is a big decision for gareth southgate to make when england plays netherlands

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. one fifth of the world's energy goes on running fridges and air—conditioning units. they are often inefficient, energy hungry and can lead greenhouse gases into the air. so now a cambridge team has come up with an alternative. it's gone really hot and then really cold. that is amazing. i will explain that in a second. first, you need to know that fridges and air—conditioning units currently work by expanding
10:28 am
and then squashing gas. the cambridge team looking to replace that house 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 material quickly they and that 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 gas at the back of our fridge so they load them into the machine and then squeeze and stretch them to see what happens. the impact will potentially be tremendous because if we can find a solid material to replace the gases we use in vapour compression fridges and air—conditioning systems we can hope to have technology that is environmentally friendly and efficient. they have developed organic materials that work as well as gas but without the potentially harmful leakage. it is still early days but it could lead to fridges and aircon units that devour less
