of their patience during this period of uncertainty and they say a decision over the new manager or the process to appoint a new manager will begin immediately. david, thank you. time for a look at the weather, here's stav da naos. we have some thunder and lightening around in the next 2a hours especially across england and wales but this warm and humid air. we are concerned about some of these thunderstorms with some weather warnings in place. this is the front thatis warnings in place. this is the front that is causing these issues and we have already had some thunderstorms gci’oss have already had some thunderstorms across southern scotland and parts of northern england this morning. the weather front also bringing patchy rain to the south—east and parts of east anglia. the best of the sunshine probably in the south—west where temperatures reach the low 20s and upper 20s across the

south—east. warnings in force and the one we're most concerned about is across the eastern half of england with the risk of some severe thunderstorms at times especially towards the end of the night. so starting off largely dry but the humidity continues to build. some very heavy rain and we could see some severe thunderstorms with localised flooding. also across parts of wales by the end of the night into the early morning. in temperatures into the high teens, feeling uncomfortable night. then the rain moves north on tuesday morning. heavy rain as well for the north of wales. for much of scotland largely dry it with some sunshine and feeling fresher than of late across the south still feeling quite humid. we could see 28 degrees which

could set off some further thundery downpours. towards the middle of the week high pressure moving in from the north, some drier air and some sunshine as well and feeling less humid going through the day. variable cloud for england and wales, some low cloud and mist around. temperatures around 16, i7 around. temperatures around 16, 17 degrees here. then the high pressure looks like it moves towards the east again and with no pressure to the west that sets up again a southerly breeze from the south bringing in that hot and humid out from the continent. we could be looking at temperatures in the 30s across the south. so dry across the uk and hot and humid once again later in the week. with the threat of further thunderstorms. short term we have thunderstorms. short term we have thunderstorm warnings and was so head online to check these out.

a reminder of our main story this lunchtime. the tory leadership battle gets personal, asjeremy hunt tells rival borisjohnson to ‘man up‘ and face proper media scrutiny. ijust think it is very disrespectful to conservative party members not to allow them the chance to see us debating head—to—head. that's all from the bbc news at one — so it's goodbye from me — and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. you a good afternoon. it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. newcastle united say manager rafael benitez will leave the club when his contract expires on sunday. benitez has been in charge for just over three years — he took them up into the premier league in 2017 and kept them there for the last two seasons. the club finished 13th last term. newcastle said they'd been working

hard to extend his contract but it hadn't been possible to reach an agreement. benitez has received an offer from chinese super league club dalian yifang and that seems where he's likely to go. the fall—out from england's win over cameroon continues. the lionesses won 3—0 to reach the quarterfinals of the women's world cup — but manager phil neville was fuming afterwards, about the behaviour of the opposition. let's get the other perspective now, from bbc africa's sports reporter isaac fanin. isaac, you've spoken to your sources in cameroon — what's the reaction been there? i think it's been very mixed, actually. some people have sympathised with the players. one of the main newspapers said the indomitable lions still made us dream. inevitably there has been some negative response to them. some people saying that they embarrassed african football. there is context to this story. this cameroon team are one of the most poorly funded

women's football teams on the continent. they went into the whole tournament feeling as though it was them against the world. to have these decisions go against them, they just felt it was maybe these decisions go against them, theyjust felt it was maybe another example of that. what in particular was day —— where they unhappy about? was at the va or? i think it happened with the back post for the first goal. some —— football is a subjective sport. many people will argue it wasn't a backpass, many will argue it was. for them, there was a feeling that it gave england the opportunity. this was their biggest game of the season. they have done something no male african tea m have done something no male african team was able to do and get out of the group stage. this was their cup final. lots of people i have been talking to, have said many decisions went against african teams. nigeria

against the hosts, france, had a penalty saved but it was reversed because the goalkeeper had her foot over the line. the cameroon coach admitted his players lost their temper. but he felt the referee did make a lot of mistakes. we can see from the image the players were certainly upset. is there any feeling that the players went over the top with their protests? this is a thing of passion. this cameroon squad really wanted to prove people wrong. and against england they were facing one of the biggest names in world football. this was an opportunity for them to get recognition, not only on a worldwide stage, but it would have been more important for them to get recognition on a national stage. to concede that goal so early on with the decision they didn't feel was right, was really tough for them. there has been a response from the governing body of african football. they said in a statement that the

actions by the cameroon team reflected badly not only on african women's football, but african football as a whole. strong words. it will be interesting to see what action is taken against this team in the coming few days. lots of passion there either way. thank you forjoining us. england openerjason roy was back in the nets at lord's today, but he's been ruled out of tomorrow's cricket world cup match against australia. scans on a torn hamstring have shown an improvement, but he only had a gentle workout. james vince will continue to deputise, with roy now hoping to be back for the game against india at edgbaston on sunday. bangladesh were put into bat by afghanistan in today's match in southampton. and they've been punished by the 18—year—old spinner mujeeb ur rahman, who's taken three wickets — they're186—4 after 38 overs. there's text commentary and in—play clips on the bbc sport website. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website.

thank you very much. you are watching bbc news. west midlands police says it plans to spend £7 million on tackling youth violence after declaring knife crime a "national emergency". the force said most of the money will go towards preventing stabbings, by focusing resources on birmingham's night time economy, and mediation services for young people. critics say the funding is not enough and the plan relies too heavily on police officers working overtime. the west midlands police and crime commissioner, david jamieson, told us the funding was welcome, but achieving results would take time. what you have, really, is a knee jerk reaction from government that they want a quick fix. and i am saying it is welcome, what the government are doing, we welcome the funding, however we've got to actually look at next year and the year after the because this problem is not going to go away in the next few months. this problem is going to be with us for some time unless we sustain that funding. now, if you look at, for example, youth work, local councils now almost abandoned youth work

because of the cuts. if you look at the work that we could be doing in schools, there is an enormous amount that we could be doing, as well as preventative work that needs some funding but it does need a prolonged effort, notjust a one—off short—term burst of funding. four years ago the nhs pledged to get more people with learning disabilities and autism moved out of secure hospitals in england, and into more appropriate accommodation within the community. but the charity mencap says that the promise has not been met. jayne mccubbinjoined one mum who has to make a 360 mile round—trip to visit her son. last week, we had a distressing phone call. "get me out, get me out, i just want to come home, "i want my mum, i want my mum." i can't take that call out of my head. adele's son eddie has learning disabilities. on christmas day, when he was 13, he was sectioned in a crisis.

nine months. that's how long you were told? yeah. it is probably going to be about nine months. and it's six and a half years later. any messages for him? we love you, missing you lots, alfie and reggie. today we're joining adele on her once—a—month, 360—mile round trip to visit her son. are you going to come and wave bye—bye? previously we've had to go 600—mile round trips. we've travelled over 26,000 miles within the uk. that's crazy. in 2015, nhs england promised people with learning disabilities homes, not hospitals, but numbers inside have increased slightly on last month to 2,250. 1 in 4 are more than 100km from home and they faced a record number of restrictive interventions like restraint and seclusion. over the years, eddie

has had periods of months in seclusion. in some hospitals he's had time when he's not even seen outside for months. this is the lane where we'll have to stop filming. we don't have permission to film inside. an hour and a half later, adele is out from an environment she says will hinder, not help, eddie's chances for following her home anytime soon. you can hear alarms going, you hear doors slamming, phones ringing, bleepers. you can hear really distressed people. i'm driving home in a minute, he's not. he's got a stay in that environment. i struggled for an hour. he's desperate to come home. this is an exhausting 10—hour round trip for adele. right, we're nearly back, but i just want to show you this place first. ..this is eddie's house. just over a year ago,

a house and a care team was found for eddie so he could move back to his own community. it's exactly as it was... but being so far away, there was no smooth transition into new surrounds. eddie was back in hospital within three weeks. for him to be back in his home with the right care and support would be cheaper. even if it was more expensive, he should still be entitled to it because it's a human right not to be locked away. local commissioners told us they're still working on a new specialist care package. you shouldn't be locked away for a disability. nhs england say they're invested £75 million to improve support in the community and numbers of people travelling for car are down but the reality for some like eddie is the door out of hospital is a revolving one. jayne mccubbin, bbc news. a care home in birmingham has built replica high street complete with a tea rooms and a post office for it's residents and visitors to use. robert harvey house created sensory street which also includes a host of animals to help stimulate memories and the senses. more than half of the residents at

the home are living with dementia. catrin nye has been to visit. at this care home in birmingham, they've built an entire sensory street — a shopping street complete with a tea rooms, a sweet shop, a butcher's shop, a phone box, a garage and a post office. what sweets do you want? have you got your money to pay for it? no. 0h! and then, at the end of it, parrots, guinea pigs, ducks and a couple of hungry goats, all designed to stimulate the senses of the residents here. i went around this morning on my own, and first of all i met the parrots, and i sat down on the bench and just shouting, "hello! hello!" i love it here. it's lovely. jam or cream or both, mum? both.

both! i might have known. but the majority of residents that come to us with advanced dementia, their health is going to decline. even if we haven't got a glory glorious day like today, we'll wrap them up in a blanket, bring them out, take them into the tea room, put the heating on in the tea room and just try and make the day special. the home also cares for people with mental health problems. chris and his wife jane have been together 22 years and were both enjoying retirement. jane spent four years in various hospitals and mental health institutions. she doesn't remember any of it. some days she didn't even recognize chris. since she's been in here, when the consultant came, the consultant said... she thought it was a miracle the way that jane has recovered, cos she recognizes me, she recognises people, she socialises. she loves the tea shop, and when, on special occasions, like valentine's day, they set it up as a valentine's day restaurant, and that really touched, jane, you know?

jane wasn't sure she was strong enough to talk to us on camera, but she's decided she can do it. it took four years to get me better. as soon as i came here, with the animals and all the care and the love and because of devotion and love, it got me better. "jane, you've done so well today, you've been walking so well everywhere. love, your chrissy. and sleep well tonight. love you, popchick." when did you do those, chris? she likes it. i love it... yeah, kind of love it. in a moment we'll have all the business news. but first,

the headlines on bbc news. tory leadership candidate jeremy hunt calls on opponent borisjohnson to ‘stop being a coward' and take part in a tv debate this week. meanwhile mrjohnson insists he will deliver brexit by the end of october former deputy premierjohn prescott was admitted to hospital last friday after suffering a stroke. facebook is in favour of an oversight board to regulate contents of the platform, according to its head of affairs, sir nick clegg. i'm jamie robertson with the business news. £100 million has been set aside to help uk firms cash in on the boom in offshore wind. the uk is well suited to exploiting wind power, and turbines have been erected in more than 30 locations across the country. but trade unions say the boom has not generated enough jobs for uk workers. lloyds banking group says 8,000 bank accounts have been suspended injersey over money laundering worries. the bank began contacting customers three years ago, to make sure they had sufficient

information on the account holders, but has now frozen the accounts of those who failed to respond. the company which makes mercedes—benz vehicles has cut its profit forecast again because of the diesel emissions scandal. germany's daimler says a "high three digit million amount" is being put aside. on saturday, german regulators ordered the company to recall 60,000 diesel cars that it found were fitted with software to cheat emissions tests. in 30 years, one in four of us in this country will be over 65. that's one way of looking at what called the old age dependency ratio, how many pensioners there are against people of working age. now on the face of it, that's a worrying statistic. it means that in 2050 there will be about 370 pensioners for every 1,000 workers. at the moment it's just above 300 per 1,000. but it's not as simple as it looks.

increasingly pensioners continue to work after retirement age. of those thousand people of working age, how many are actually working? if all of them are it makes it a lot easier to support the pensioners. quite a complicated subject. sarah crofts is from the office for national statistics centre for ageing and demographics. this old—age dependency ratio, it is not a terribly good way of looking at the way in which pensioners depend on the rest of society to live. what is a better way to look at it? the old-age dependency ratio isa simple at it? the old-age dependency ratio is a simple measure of looking at the population aged above state pension age and comparing that with the adult population below state pension age. traditionally that is used across the world by many countries as a way of measuring population ageing. but what we have been looking at is whether there is

an alternative way. we are increasingly seeing the state pension age is no longer the cut—off that separates a person's working life from a person's retired life. you are talking about economic activity, aren't you? yes. what we are increasingly seeing is that people are working beyond the age of 65. we are seeing one in ten people over the age of 65 are employed. that is double the figure that we saw 20 years ago. around that it was one in 20. we are seeing increases in the numbers of people aged in their 50s, particularly in the numbers of people aged in their50s, particularly women, in the numbers of people aged in their 50s, particularly women, who are working compared to previously. they are mostly working part—time. it may well be increased flexibility of working arrangements that enable them to do this. even if they are working after pension age, it doesn't make them any less dependent, it doesn't lessen the cost? well, what we have looked at

is not only the old—age dependency ratio, because that is a useful measure of how the population structure is changing. we have been looking at what is known as economic participation rates. the people, regardless of which age they are, whether they are working or not. and what we have done is we have looked at population projections and we have looked at sort of projected economic participation rates produced by the otr, and combined those together to produce a new sort of alternative measure. and that ta kes of alternative measure. and that takes into of alternative measure. and that ta kes into accou nt of alternative measure. and that takes into account future working of people over the state pension age. what that present is a picture that's not quite the same as the old—age dependency ratio. we are not looking at quite the increase the o adr is showing. this is showing an initial increase and then a levelling off. that is assuming recent trends are in increased working continues. that's really

interesting. so it doesn't look quite as bleak as it would look if you are just looking at the dependency ratio? a lot of old—age pensioners aren't going to be totally depending on the workforce. they are going to be fairly self—sufficient, aren't they? they are going to be fairly self-sufficient, aren't they? well, as with many things, the reasons why people retire, or choose to keep working, that can vary quite considerably. and so there are some caution to run around our future economic participation rates because they can vary. we have looked at recent trends. if they were to continue. we have done a little bit of research looking at the reasons why people are working beyond state pension age and we do not that at the age of 65, around half the people who continue working so they are not ready to retire, so in that respect people are living longer, healthier lives and want to continue working for longer, then the traditional way of looking at old—age dependency might be a suggested alternative way of

thinking. sarah crofts, thank you. in other business news, the data protection watchdog, the ico, has fined telecoms giant ee for sending unlawful text messages. the £100,000 fine was imposed after the firm sent more than 2.5 million direct marketing messages to its customers, without consent, encouraging customers to download the my ee app and also to upgrade their phone. health and beauty chain boots has started to replace plastic bags with brown paper bags to cut down on the use of single—use plastic. it's also introducing paper bags for prescriptions but those assembled at its central pharmacy will still be sent out in plastic packaging. and the trump administration is looking into the possibility of making sure all 5g equipment used in the us must be made outside china, according to reports in the wall stjournal. america has banned the chinese tech giant huawei installing 5g equipment and added huawei to a list of companies that american firms cannot trade with unless they have a licence.

that's all the business news. backin back in an hour. jamie, thank you. the number of people saying they're not religious is rising across the middle east and north africa, and trust in the region's main islamist movements, such as the muslim brotherhood, hamas and hezbollah, is in decline. these are just two of the findings indicated by the largest survey of its kind in the region, carried out by the arab barometer research network for bbc news arabic. nawal al maghafi reports. from here in iraq to algeria, sudan and yemen, our project interviewed more than 25,000 people from across the middle east and north africa. the result is a fascinating insight into how people feel and think in the region today. what did we find out? religion has played a key role in the conflicts that have erupted across the region, from islamic state to conflicts fuelled by sectarian rhetoric in yemen. our

survey indicates a growing number are turning their back on religion. a third of tunisians now say they are not religious. in libya, that number stands at 25%. views on foreign policy were unsurprisingly influenced by policies towards this country. the us embassy moved from tel aviv to jerusalem and the recognition of the city is the capital of israel, has made america more unpopular in the region. citing america's involvement in the middle east, 63% of those interviewed said violence against the us is understandable. the survey indicated that vladimir putin's foreign policy is three times more popular than donald trump. but the turkish president towers above the others, with seven of the ten countries surveyed saying his policy is the most favourable. what about trade? not only do they hate president

trump's at least policy, but they would also rather do business with china. 51% across the region won a closer economic ties with china. 42% with the united kingdom. and only 38% with the united states. people here in jordan are 38% with the united states. people here injordan are keen on keeping the relationship close with the united kingdom, with 63% wanting closer economic ties. it is an interesting insight into one of the most u nsta ble interesting insight into one of the most unstable regions in the world. you can find out more about that survey and results on our website. a bride—to—be is being hailed a hero after helping to rescue a man from a burning flat on her way home from her hen party. firefighters who dealt with the blaze, in north walsham in norfolk, say if kayleigh brown and herfriend harriot woods hadn't intervened, they could have been dealing with a fatality. they were speaking to my colleague, victoria derbyshire. we had been out, we were walking home, we heard what we initially

thought was a car alarm. when we got closer, we saw smoke coming out of the windows of this flat and i phoned 999, harriet went to look for a way in. when we couldn't find a way in, the gentleman said, "just smash the window." so then harriet actually done that and we managed to get him out safely. but, yeah. wow. harriet, how did you get him out? so, initially, i was trying to kick the door down, but that wasn't working, so he, like kayleigh said, shouted, "smash the window." so i put my foot through the window and managed to unlock the door from the inside... ran upstairs, was just throwing everything that was cluttering the stairs to kayleigh to get it out of the way so that i could get this man up and take him down stairs and out of the flat. and how was he? i think he was ok, i think the ambulance took him away, but i'm not 100% sure. and so, kayleigh, if you hadn't done

this, obviously it could have been a lot, lot worse? yeah, it could have. we were just lucky that we were in the right place at the right time. the hen do heroines. now the weather with stav da naos. lots going on with the weather this week. thundery downpours, hot sunshine, humid conditions, particularly in the south. a good deal of sunshine as well. quite a mixed bag over the next couple of days thanks to low pressure towards the west of the uk, high pressure in the west of the uk, high pressure in the east. drawing in humid airfrom the east. drawing in humid airfrom the near continent. this weather front will be causing issues in the next 2a hours, bringing quite a bit of cloud and heavy and thundery rain. we hold on to the rain this afternoon in northern areas, thundery downpours across northern scotland. wet weather slowly clearing away from east anglia. when the hazy sunshine comes out, we could be looking at opera 20 is

celsius across the south—east. fairly one further north. the rain lingers on in the north. we look to the south to this next plume of thundery air and the risk of heavy and thundery downpours. we could see some severe thunderstorms in central and eastern parts of england, and the risk of flash flooding. a warm and muggy night. further north, more co mforta ble. and muggy night. further north, more comfortable. as we head through the tuesday morning, the thundery rain and embedded storms moves north. heavy rain across north wales and in two parts of northern ring and for a time, which could cause travel disruption. sunshine across central and southern areas. further thunderstorms developing. top temperature is 27 to 28 degrees. further north, the high teens. su btle further north, the high teens. subtle changes in the middle part of the week. i pressure from the north brings more north—easterly winds. the humidity will drop during wednesday. it will be quite noticeable. plenty of sunshine across northern areas. a little bit

of cloud for england and wales. a cooling breeze down the east coast. temperatures at 16 to 17 celsius. for the south—west, the best of the values around the mid 20s. high pressure reorientate itself as we enter the week, pushing towards the east of the uk, and drawing back this very hot and humid air. we see the heat pushing north. high 20s across northern parts of the country, may be the low 30s further south. hotter later in the week with plenty of sunshine. hot and humid.
