10:40 pm
sparked a full scale rebellion. and the uk is heading for its wettestjune on record with up to double the average rainfall for the month to fall tomorrow and thursday — that's according to the metro. we will talk about the weather at a moment if you can bear it, so while david lets kick off the prime minister in waiting, is that how you see boris johnson? minister in waiting, is that how you see boris johnson? if you read it, you can be excused into thinking the tory leadership title is already over, prime minister and waiting,. it says, but of course it says that brave orfull heidi it says, but of course it says that brave or full heidi tactic of gagging borisjohnson brave or full heidi tactic of gagging boris johnson for the brave or full heidi tactic of gagging borisjohnson for the past few days i mean yes he has gagged himself or well, that's question because there are a few people around them who may have gagged him, he is not the easiest person to gagged over the. but it's not a bad
10:41 pm
strategy in the sense his rivals had made mistakes particularly michael go with the cocaine admission, and he is done fine by not saying much. hang on and minute whether you think it's a mistake or not it wasn't his, yes it was his mistake years ago but, anyway, be bad as it may, i mean boris did manage in his column this week to introduce the great tax reform, which was welcomed with open arms as i understand byjeremy corbyn in the labour leader office, but we shall see what tomorrow brings. what you think it'll bring what he think he is likely to say? we have some information i when he is likely to say, he's likely say if we don't like if the tory party doesn't bring the country added the eu by the 315t of october, as we been scheduled to, and it will be kicking the bucket, the party will be kicking the bucket.”
10:42 pm
kicking the bucket, the party will be kicking the bucket. i think he said if we keep kicking the can down the road we kicked the bucket stop live that's exactly what was said, that's a quote we have been reporting today on the paper, so that's where the battle lines are being drawn i think who is going to promise in a sense, to bring the country out of the eu by the 31st of october because you got other co ntesta nts october because you got other contestants are october because you got other co ntesta nts a re ca nd idates october because you got other contestants are candidates rather, saying that anyone who says they could bring the country out of the evite 30 past 0ctober could bring the country out of the evite 30 past october is not being honest. in terms of the final detail in this contest which is what matters, the leadership and party membership votes on, do you think it's boris johnson membership votes on, do you think it's borisjohnson plus one other yet to be decided, is not likely to be if not michael gojeremy hunt as to how you see it? that's conventional understanding, but it's also worth remembering that for as long as we can remember, the favourite and a tory party candidate contest is number one ultimately.
10:43 pm
has out but maybe this time that won't. boris messed up in his mouth tomorrow you see that anything can happen step that he does need to speak up. he may be asked about his job pass because other candidates had admitted to it, what he has had various different things about it so you may be pressed on that. jeremy hunt appears to announce to an outsider to be trading rather well and rather warily but rather well and rather warily but rather well and some of the sport, he's does not appear to be the support he would initially get. let's go to the next paper, boris faces remain a plot to stop no deal, these are remained baggy mps who are going to come up with a parliamentary mechanism that they hope to try and top a note —— stop and nokia brexit. all the parties other than the dup and
10:44 pm
conservatives at a party seem to have signed up to it, but is actually one conservative mp who cosigned this as well, which is all of her neck to supporting michael goes, so it's quite interesting as faras goes, so it's quite interesting as far as the party dynamic as he signed up to this as well. what is slightly worrying about it is with brexit, on both sides, i think it has become a trust issue for everybody. all of the mp5, they are all clever and oliver is certainly clever as far as all clever and oliver is certainly cleveras faras i'm all clever and oliver is certainly clever as far as i'm concerned they knew very well they can't legislate as much is a light, there is nothing they can do to unilaterally take it i'io they can do to unilaterally take it no deal off the top bat —— table and literally nothing. the one thing they can do unilaterally that we as a country can do is revoke article 50, and it will be everyone would think everyone who's been following the process and president, will be thinking back exactly what the mp5 actually wanted to do, but perhaps they are too cowardly to say it because politically it will be disastrous for them so they say
10:45 pm
let's do some sort of clever legislation to bring forward that'll stop a nokia brexit on the 315t but that's not possible unless the eu agrees to it and they've set out clear conditions which points out how they get the sense in get an extension. two things, what it is now for people like dom grieve for people like philip lee, and oliver let, and others, nick bowles i suppose, what's different than tese approach —— support and encourage —— coming to prime minister was likely to be coming out of the 31st of 0ctober person, and secondly, i think there is dare i say a simple question for all of these candidates at the moment. what can you do and why and how that the prime minister you supported just about the past three years wasn't able to do. and
10:46 pm
why should you be able to do the things, when she felt? ijust understand. look at the guardian's front page, which is similar labour beds to stop any prime minister forcing a hard brexit, they say. and a nice picture actually appointed the tory contenders, rory stewart, that he had an ally and number ten, and that is of course larry, and he's crouching down outside number ten who knows. maybe he might be prime minister. innovative campaigns a whole lot of them so far, he may have been the almost as unknown as a couple of the others at the start, but actually there was some quite heavy and in the audience today supporting them, and darrell clark was there i saw, and others. and he has done it in a very. he has not
10:47 pm
been gagged, a cell of the country and all of the social media, so rory stewart actually, if the object of the exercise is to get himself known, and this little campaign, he is managing to do that.|j known, and this little campaign, he is managing to do that. i wonder who larry the cat wants us prime minister. larry the cat did walk away when rory stewart knelt... is a video out there, i think rory stewart and his great sense of humour he tweeted it himself when the cat walked away. michael go after the drug confession about cocaine, a piece by his wife sarah, who is a male communist columnist, saying she did a lapse ofjudgement negate years of good work, making the case for her husband what you make of that? it's very useful, is it not to have someone who is an
10:48 pm
established colonists to write on your behalf when you're taking part ina your behalf when you're taking part in a contest like this, i think, whether or not a time a few weeks ago i think she wrote a similar article about saying how, you may not be able to know the dishwasher but he can be an excellent prime ministerl but he can be an excellent prime minister i know that, i think what people will take away from it is let people will take away from it is let people will take away from it is let people will want to take away from it, it will depend on the person who is taking away from it and what's actually written, because you're right, the message of forgiveness and second chances is all very attractive, but there's also question of the hypocrisy allegations that have been leveled against her husband. that while he was the education secretary he took a very serious stance on cocaine use, my and you are not really in love with him that it is, since his time as as his secretary, so to be
10:49 pm
quite interesting to see where people can square that circle about whether you like to be forgiven from the same time are you being forgiving to others for doing the same thing. telegraphed out -- telegraph now, a story breaking tonight about theresa may setting a legally binding target, so cutting greenhouse gases into next year by 2050. , man said that another time and political history, legacy, legacy, legacy and i think you know, that's she having gotten very long and here it is, the uk is set to legally binding target to it and its contribution to climate change, by 2050. the government is laying out legislation in parliament this wednesday, that's tomorrow, to set a new target to cut emissions to the zero by the middle of the century, so what does that mean to you and me? well, as i understand it, it
10:50 pm
will mean an end to the heating of homes with traditional gas playlist, more green electricity, and a switch from petrol to diesel because two electric cars that we are told about. this is all fine, but what is reality? including political reality? including political reality? at times is going with the 0xfa m reality? at times is going with the 0xfam story that's been on the headlights all day and another bout of terrible publicity for them. and they are reminding us that they had actually broken that story to do with haiti where the country director of oxfam ended up resigning and a few people lost theirjobs as well, it does not looking very good at all, i think the charity commission had been investigating 0xfam for about 18 months i think, and now they are in a position where that money has been withheld until they sort things out. and it seems
10:51 pm
like there was a certain amount of frustration within the charity commission in the way 0xfam dealt with the allegations historically and how they have treated whistle—blowers and how they have treated whistle— blowers for example, there is an e—mail that sounds very bad to better from two young girls who rode saying we have been treated badly, but the 0xfam high apps decided it was a failure and didn't look into it properly, so all these things are sort of publish now. fair to say stomach problem in the age —— 80 sector not only 0xfam. but it's also a lesson surely for some of us who are brought up by 0xfam are that the perception was that it was one of the world great charities, and that perception can be destroyed with one event, yes a culture of over a period of time which none of us knew about, certainly none of the outside this industry knew about, to be
10:52 pm
billed at the perception of 0xfam. that's the task now. the male talking about the bbc licence fee, and the fact that it's being removed asa and the fact that it's being removed as a free ride for over 75 pensioners. they will go to prison every tv licenses. what you make of that? no wonder the government you suspect was delighted to dump this issue. the bbc, and the last licence settlement. there are no votes in it, that's for sure. if you take something away from somebody, it's particularly difficult and this is classic staff for the daily e—mail and for campaigning for this paper is who bellowed campaigns around the sort of subject, and particularly when it involves elderly and i speak as one, but you did get to play, i
10:53 pm
mean i'm not conscious when i run around the country people are throwing free copies of newspapers at me and my 71st year, or 72nd year. i'm shocked. this is a difficult situation for the bbc. and of course, no worries pensioners and senior citizens is that this is the thin end of the wedge and what about bus passes and the rest of it because we've grown used to that. who have a new prime minister is might restore free television licenses for the over 75 but the government paying for it or do you think it's impossible. would that be happy to government decision was say i don't know if that would be or goes back to the bbc. i mean, there is certainly an argument to say it's a welfare issue not a bbc issue, so i suppose they could look at it that way. finally, let's talk about the weather since we are british and
10:54 pm
that's what british people do, and it has been decidedly wet and your rather upset about it.|j it has been decidedly wet and your rather upset about it. i am very upset because i started my day at six o'clock this morning, and i got drenched just getting around the centre birmingham. 86 ticket drenched just getting around the centre birmingham. b6 ticket did you not take an umbrella?” centre birmingham. b6 ticket did you not take an umbrella? i took a large umbrella and large hot and large raincoat and i still got drenched running around because the roadwork i set you cannot get anywhere that you want to get to, and i had a large suitcase i had to say but whatever happened tojune? i mean, andi whatever happened tojune? i mean, and i bet if we went back to some of our newspaper reviews earlier this year, the forecasters who were telling us with the seaweed or whatever was that we are going to have wonderful summer. but you often get rainyjune don't you. have wonderful summer. but you often get rainy june don't you. not like that. is a global warming? get rainy june don't you. not like that. is a globalwarming? i don't have the expertise to say that but what i'm hoping is that with the cricket world cup, it sort this
10:55 pm
stuff out because i and then to take my father took cricket match, and i really am looking forward to it so much it's going to be that bangladesh and pakistan match because my parents are from bangladesh and lived there so they will be coming to visit me and i would like to take my father for that match and i really hope that the weather holds. it has wreaked havoc with the cricket world. the weather holds. it has wreaked havoc with the cricket worldlj achieved in addition i went to go see my beloved lancashire play against gloucestershire, and it was rained in. yesterday i to worchester sure rained. again, iwant your rights to bleed. —— but bangladesh pakistan will be fantastic. that's up, fingers crossed when is it? the 5th ofjuly i think. also you have some time it'll be lovely i'm sure and enjoy. thank you both for reviewing the papers. that's it for the papers this hour. don't forget you can see the front
10:56 pm
pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — 7 days a week at bbc.co/uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you to my guests, dia and david, and we'll all be back for a second look at the papers in just over half an hour. but for the moment, goodbye. hello, good evening. it hasn't felt much likejune over the last couple of days. in fact, some places so far this week have had more rainfall than they'd normally expect in the whole month ofjune. over 90 mm, for example, across parts of lincolnshire. low—pressure has been in charge of the scene, the low, very slow moving areas of cloud spiralling around, this particular stripe of cloud here has brought rain through today across parts of lincolnshire, yorkshire, northwest england and wales as well. we will see further wet weather here as we head deeper into the evening and overnight.
10:57 pm
that rain also extending northwards, eventually getting into southeast scotland, some rain may clip into parts of northern ireland. away from these areas, generally quite a lot of cloud, it will be breezy, particularly across the northern half of the uk and those temperatures ranging from eight to 12 degrees. so low—pressure still very much in charge of the scene through tomorrow. a couple of weather fronts to point out, this one, the one that's been tracking northwestwards very slowly over the last couple of days will bring rain into southern scotland and northern ireland and also notice another area of wet weather pushing across the continent and that is going to work its way towards parts of eastern england as we go through the day. some really heavy bursts of rain developing here once again, and even away from those zones of persistent rain, there will be some scattered showers and thunderstorms which could in themselves, give enough rain in a short space of time to cause some further issues with flooding. that's certainly the story across southern england, some showers across parts of wales,
10:58 pm
more persistent rain for northern england in southern scotland, some of that rain into northern ireland at times. to the north of that, a lot of dry weather, some sunny spells in northern scotland, but it will be breezy with that breeze coming from the northeast, it will feel decidedly cool. on thursday, we will see that rain making more progress into northern and western scotland, maybe not quite getting to the western isles, some rain bending back in and northern ireland, was in the southwest away from these areas, it is that story and sunny spells and slow moving heavy downpours, ten to 17 degrees. and low—pressure still with us as we approach the end of the week, the winds will be lighter by the stage and also coming from the southwest, so temperatures will climb a little bit it does stay pretty unsettled, but it stays increasingly dry to the southeast as we go through the weekend.
10:59 pm
11:00 pm
this is bbc news. i'm ben brown. the headlines at 11:00: the prime minister pledges the uk will cut greenhouse gases to zero by 2050, making britain one of the first major economy to do so, affecting all our daily lives. in one of her last measures as prime minister theresa may will say the uk must lead the world to a cleaner, greener form of growth. three more conservatives set out their stalls in the leadership contest and brexit remains the defining issue. labour is to make a fresh attempt in parliament tomorrow to stop the uk leaving the european union without an agreement. 0xfam is given an official warning by the charity watchdog, following allegations of serious sexual misconduct by its staff in haiti.
