the girl whose death from an allergic reaction to a sandwich, has brought about a change in the law. and as a heatwave grips parts of europe, record temperatures of more than a0 degrees are forecast. and coming up on bbc news... a hostile welcome at the home of cricket for australia's david warner as he continues his return from a ban for ball—tampering at the world cup against england. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. after repeated accusations of avoiding media interviews, the frontrunner for the conservative leadership and prime minister, borisjohnson, has made a series of broadcast appearances, setting out his ideas, including on brexit. mrjohnson made an unequivocal

pledge to take the uk out of the eu by october 31st, in his words, "come what may, do or die." he continued to maintain his silence on his private life, which has come under scrutiny. it's been revealed that the winner of the leadership race will be announced onjuly the 23rd. our political correspondent, jessica parker, reports. critics say he has kept us in the dark about his brexit plan, but borisjohnson is dark about his brexit plan, but boris johnson is taking dark about his brexit plan, but borisjohnson is taking a few steps into the media spotlight. in an interview with the bbc, a concession that he can't get the brexit he wa nts that he can't get the brexit he wants without goodwill from rush —— brussels. it is notjust up to us, it is up to the other side as well. there is an important element of that mutuality and cooperation in this. and we will be working with oui’ this. and we will be working with our friends this. and we will be working with ourfriends and this. and we will be working with our friends and partners to make sure that we have an outcome that is ma nifestly sure that we have an outcome that is manifestly in the interests of

people, businesses, communities, on both sides. boris johnson has told talk radio that brexit needs to happen by the end of october, that it is do or die. and on lbc he said the tories are in a tight spot. we are staring down the barrel of defeat. and look at what happened in the european elections, in the council elections, my party, the conservative party, is on 9% in the european elections. every tory mp understands that. so what exactly is the plan? boris johnson understands that. so what exactly is the plan? borisjohnson once the uk to leave by october 31 with a new agreement. hold off on paying brussels the divorce payment. get an implementation period so there is tariff free trade until a free trade deal is fleshed out. and solve the irish border issue after we have left, using technology. what of the other conservative leadership

candidate's emerging plan? jeremy hunt knows there are obstacles in the way. he also wants to renegotiate, but is not as set on the deadline of october 31. renegotiate, but is not as set on the deadline of october 31m renegotiate, but is not as set on the deadline of october 31. if you send the right person you have the best chance. how does your plan differfrom mrjohnson‘s? best chance. how does your plan differ from mrjohnson's? they sound similar. the plan may be similar, the person is not. see you later, guys. brussels has said renegotiating the agreement is not an option. that isn't stopping anybody in their tracks. both contenders claim they can get a better deal out of the eu, that they personally have what it takes to change the dynamic and unlock this process. but as things stand, it is an unprovable promise. it is the politics of faith. there is also the matter of trust. arriving at a radio studio, borisjohnson matter of trust. arriving at a radio studio, boris johnson may matter of trust. arriving at a radio studio, borisjohnson may be doing more interviews but he is keeping the door closed when it comes to discussing headlines around his private life. ajeremy hunt

supporter says the frontrunner generally needs to front up more.“ boris is not going to answer questions on his private life, that is his decision, but i would like to see him answer questions on lots of other things, and it's been disappointing he has not participated in the debate that sky television has scheduled for tonight, and i would like to see more rigorous questioning of what his plans are for taking the uk out of the eu. conservative party members are reflecting on who they want, while borisjohnson is still seen as being ahead in this race, all sorts of things go on in westminster. this campaign has already flagged up unexpected moments. jessica parker, bbc news. in a moment we'll talk about what boris johnson's plans for brexit mean for the irish border, when we speak to our ireland correspondent, chris page, in belfast. but first to westminster, and our assistant political editor, norman smith. norman, borisjohnson has done a series of interviews this morning. so are we now any clearer about his brexit deal? i think we are, although there is no

new proposal, no new initiatives, no new proposal, no new initiatives, no new detail. the only new ingredient is him, his conviction that his character, his charisma, his sheer chutzpah can drive through an agreement by october 31, come what may, do or die. he is proposing essentially gutting and for letting mrs may's all deal to keep the bits we like and don't the bits we don't like. so we would keep the guarantee to eu citizens, but dump the backstop and deal with that after we have left the eu. likewise, we keep the fermentation period, the softly—softly exit of the eu, but we wouldn't be paying the full £39 billion divorce bill. of course, the big question is, why on earth with the eu agreed to this? because they have always said they will not sanction the withdrawal agreement being renegotiated. it probably

sounds to them like we have returned to our old cherry picking tendencies and there is no sign eu leaders will be bowled over by borisjohnson‘s barnstorming self—confidence, which means if boris johnson barnstorming self—confidence, which means if borisjohnson can't deliver the deal by october 31, then we are indeed heading towards no deal. chris, mrsjohnson's been setting out his ideas on the irish border after brexit. how plausible are they? well, looking at one significant aspect of mrjohnson's ideas of how you keep the irish border open, he spoke about what he described as abundant technical solutions. some technology would certainly help towards that aim, for example, the potential for goods to be declared electronically or on line. but business leaders here in northern ireland have been keen to point out this morning that the brexit referendum happened three years ago and over the course of that time, numerous technological solutions have been explored, considered,

researched and so far no solutions have been found that will completely resolve the issue. one particularly difficult area, for example, is around the movement of animals, of agricultural produce, of food. there is no technology that would be a substitute for physical checks in those cases. dublin has also been very clear about its opinions on the limits of technology, hence, it says, the need for a backstop, the insurance policy that would mean if there is no free trade deal between there is no free trade deal between the eu and the uk, northern ireland would have to continue following the rules of a single market. they say europe is behind them on that, with no backstop there won't be a deal. chris page in belfast and norman smith in westminster, thank you. the hillsborough match commander, david duckenfield, will face a retrial on a charge of the gross negligence manslaughter of 95 liverpool fans, who died in a crush at the fa cup semi—final in sheffield in 1989. a jury was unable to reach a verdict at a trial earlier this year. the judge ruled another trial will take place in october.

judith moritz is at preston crown court. dude it, tell us what happened in court? -- judith. thejury dude it, tell us what happened in court? -- judith. the jury at david duckenfield's trial, which finished in april, they spent ten weeks listening to evidence and eight days deliberating and they couldn't reach a verdict. they were discharged. the prosecution applied for a retrial, the defence opposed to that. there have been legal arguments at preston. the judge this morning ruled that there will be a retrial, that it will go ahead on the 7th of october. the match commander, david duckenfield, 74, is charged with the gross negligence, manslaughter of 95 liverpool fans, who died in the crush at sheffield in 1989. the 96th victim, tony bland, can't be included in the prosecution because

he died more than a year and a day after the disaster. several families, several of the hillsborough families, were here at preston and at an annexe in liverpool to hear the judgment been given. john trainor lost two brothers in liverpool, christopher and kevin, and he says he is very pleased. he welcomes the prospect of a retrial. i was just delighted, absolutely delighted. it's one of the better news days we've had, after all the bad news we've had over the years. it's been like a roller—coaster ride. today we are on a high, tomorrow we could be on a low, in our own personal lives as well. today, we'll take it and will look forward now to october the 7th. david duckenfield david ducke nfield stood david duckenfield stood trial alongside the former club secretary of sheffield wednesday. he was convicted of one health and safety offe nce, convicted of one health and safety offence, of failing to provide enough turnstiles at the sheffield ground in 1989. today here at

preston, david ducke nfield ground in 1989. today here at preston, david duckenfield wasn't here. he wasn't required to attend. but he will be back here on the 7th of october for the start of his trial. judith, many thanks. the new home of the duke and duchess of sussex cost the public nearly £2.5 million to refurbish. frogmore cottage in windsor used to consist of five separate homes, but was turned into a single property for harry and meghan. the official figures — published by buckingham palace — also showed the queen was given £82 million last year from the treasury to fund her official duties. our royal correspondent, nicholas witchell, reports. they chose windsor for their wedding, and when harry and meghan considered where they wanted to live, the focus once again was on this town, with its long association with royalty. they moved from kensington palace in central london for a secluded residence known as frogmore cottage, hidden away close to windsor castle. what's revealed today is that it's cost £2.4 million of public money to turn this cottage into a home fit for the duke and duchess of sussex.

the officials here at the palace, who control royal spending, say it cost £2.4 million because the cottage was in fact five separate homes, which had to be stripped out and reconfigured to become one single residence. and those officials say that whenever the sussexes wanted fixtures and fittings in their cottage, which went beyond the basic level of comfort, they paid for them themselves. on the broader question of royal finance, the figures show that what's known as the sovereign grant for 2018—19 amounted to £82.2 million. that's the overall cost of the monarchy, minus things like security. of that, very nearly £33 million was spent on the refurbishment of buckingham palace, the infrastructure of which is said to be in urgent need of repair. the figures give an insight into royal transport costs. for example, the visit last year by the queen and the duchess of sussex to cheshire, by royal train and charter aircraft,

costjust under £30,000. and the visit to the caribbean and cuba earlier this year by the prince of wales and the duchess of cornwall, cost more than £400,000. long—haul visits, like that one to the caribbean, meant a sharp increase in the royal family's carbon emissions caused by air travel — they were up by 98%, though emissions from royal residences were down by 22%. overall, officials say the year was a busy one for the royal family, the members of which, led by the queen, carried out more than 3,000 official engagements in the uk and overseas. nicholas witchell, bbc news. southern water has been ordered to pay a record £126 million in fines and customer rebates for spills of wastewater into the environment from its sewage plants, and for deliberately misreporting its performance. the regulator, ofwat, called the case "shocking". james ingham joins us from

eastleigh sewage works in hampshire. james, this is a very significant find by the regulator? yes, this is the largest finder based on the company size that ofwat has ever imposed on a water company, which shows how serious southern water's breaches have been. the company provides water and treats waste water for 4.5 provides water and treats waste waterfor 4.5 million provides water and treats waste water for 4.5 million customers across the south east of england and it treats waste water at sites like this. ofwat has found a significant number of these have not been maintained properly. information about the performance was wrong. it did this to avoid penalties from ofwat. it has also found the investment from the company has been lacking, so equipment has failed, and that has led to sewage leaks. the company has got to pay back

customers £123 million in compensation. so each one will receive around £61 over five years. the environment agency is also carrying out a criminal investigation. southern water has apologised for its actions, and it said it is committed to improving its business over the next few yea rs. james, thank you. the time is 13:15. our top story this lunchtime: borisjohnson, the boris johnson, the frontrunner to borisjohnson, the frontrunner to be the next prime minister says he wa nts the next prime minister says he wants the uk to leave the eu in october, come what may, do or die. and still to come: frida the mexican search and rescue dog who saved many lives retires from duty. also coming up, stephen fry talks to us also coming up, stephen fry talks to us about greek mythology going back on stage for a one—man show after nearly 40 years.

france, memories of the 2003 heatwave weigh heavily, when 15,000, mainly elderly people, are reckoned to have died from heat. the country's environment minister said there would be new measures in paris. translation: we will have a traffic management system that will be triggered much faster than before. if we had noticed that the maximum pollution threshold is exceeded on any day. so, today warnings and advice are everywhere. extra water points have been installed paris and air—conditioned rooms in in town halls. frolicking in public fountains, normally frowned upon, is permitted. midday in paris and it's hot, though maybe not the punishing heat that some had been predicting. but then this is only the beginning. the peak of the heatwave is supposed to come thursday or friday, before probably easing somewhat over the weekend. it's not just in it's notjust in france. spain, germany, italy and belgium are all

reporting unseasonably high temperatures. is it global warming? france's health minister has said this kind of premature heatwave must no longer be regarded as unusual. the french should prepare for more to come. hugh schofield, bbc news, paris. a serious sex scandal has hit south korea's pop industry. k—pop stars, who've previously had a wholesome image, are among those facing a string of charges, from sexual assaults on women to drug distribution. a further police investigation has begun into the nightclubs in the korean capital seoul. our correspondent, laura bicker, reports. gangnam in seoul is the flashy, fashion—conscious playground of this nation's rich and famous. psy sang about it in the viral pop hit gangnam style. but in recent months, this area has gained a far more sinister reputation. the growing sex scandal began with claims that some of the biggest names in k—pop had drugged and raped women and shared video of the acts. megastar seungri from the boy band

big bang is one of several celebrities fighting a host of charges, including procuring prostitutes and embezzling funds for his nightclub. but the wider investigation centres on sexual abuse in some of gangnam's most glamorous clubs. the bbc has learned that the elite and powerful of gangnam were requesting drugged 01’ unconscious women. they were paying tens of thousands of dollars to have them taken to a nearby room to be raped. the message from one client was, "bring me zombies". this pastor spent six months working undercover as a driver for some of the most well—known clubs. translation: i saw a woman raped inside of clubs, being drugged against a woman's will, been beaten and so on. and on other occasions, he witnessed them being sexually assaulted while unconscious. translation: there was no response from the body. the breathing was almost gone

and the pupils were dilated. we've spoken to one woman who was having drinks with an asian businessman in a club. she said she blacked out and woke up in a hotel room. translation: he got on top of me and used both of his hand to block my mouth and started pressing down hard, as if he's doing cpr. he kept saying, "relax, relax". i couldn't resist his power and i was in so much pain that i could die so ijust gave up and laid there like a dead body. the man strenuously denies raping, sexually assaulting, or physically attacking her. he also claims cctv footage backs up his account. the investigation continues. thousands of campaigners took part in protests after hearing claims police turned a blind eye to reports of sexual assault in exchange for bribes. gangnam's police chief has been forced to step down and officers are now trying to restore trust. shouting

translation: we will focus our efforts on preventing sex crimes where women are drugged. we will put every effort into stopping incidents like this from happening ever again. this woman has been documenting the fight for equality in south korea and believes this scandal is a turning point. we believe we do have power to change culture for women, rape culture and all these other gender inequality in korean society. we do have power to change them. having dragged these crimes out of the darkness, women in south korea say they're determined to fight for change and hold this society's most powerful to account. laura bicker, bbc news, seoul. a new law to protect people who have food allergies has been announced by the government. the legislation, which will require businesses to list all the ingredients in pre—packaged foods, is named after natasha ednan—laperouse, who died from an allergic reaction

after eating a sandwich from pret a manger. daniela relph reports. it was the start of the summer holiday that she would never get to see. 15—year—old natasha ednan—laperouse was on her way to the south of france. but on board the plane, she collapsed and died soon after. she'd suffered a catastrophic allergic reaction. natasha had eaten a sandwich she'd bought from pret a manger. the packaging did not say it included sesame seeds. the ingredients that caused her collapse. since losing her, natasha's family have become relentless campaigners. they blamed inadequate food labelling laws for her death and wanted change. today, the government announced natasha's law. this, in her name, isjust wonderful. she would be so proud. for us, it's...|t's a way of her memory living on. and that's so important, when you lose a child, it's so difficult not to talk

about her all the time and not to have her living on in people's memories. but with natasha's law being something set in stone, it feels like that won't happen at all. and so many people will be saved and have a safer life and navigate their lives, their allergic lives, in a much better way, because of her. natasha's law will be introduced this summer and be mandatory by 2021. from then, all prepacked food going directly to sale must list all of its ingredients. many big food companies have welcomed the new legislation. but there is concern within the industry that smaller businesses can't afford such comprehensive food labelling. natasha's parents have had some high—profile support. by coincidence, sarah duchess of york, was on board the flight with the family when natasha's body was repatriated. she will now be patron of a new charity, set up by the family, which hopes to ultimately find a cure for some allergies.

people just don't understand. they think, "allergy, oh, yes". it is a massive problem. 44% of adults are now suffering from allergic conditions. we have to do something about it. and i think narf, the natasha allergy research foundation will go into communities, support communities, will be funding researchers... the five or six people who are researching in this country, to really let them find a solution through immunotherapy. and really make a difference. for natasha's family, the new law in her name is a fitting legacy for her life. daniela relph, bbc news, west london. mps have criticised an executive producer of itv‘s thejeremy kyle show for the "irresponsible" use of lie—detector tests, which were routinely used on the programme, calling it "astonishing" and "disappointing" that executives couldn't confirm their exact accuracy. the show‘s bosses were called to give evidence to mps following the death of participant steve dymond, who reportedly failed

england's bowlers have had a frustrating morning as they take on a resolute australia at lord's. after a slow start england have now ta ken several australian wickets and there were boos for steve smith — who had been banned for a ball—tampering scandal. australia are currently for 230—5. joe wilson has been following the action at lord's. the world cup may be hosted on these shores but lord's cricket ground knew the power of the kangaroo. how many times have australia won the world cup? six. five. four, ithink. five. five! five. how many times have england won the world cup? clue comments below number one. it's a zero, it's a duck egg. all that history but the crowd remember sandpaper. david warner was introduced and booed. warner served his ban for ball tampering. as an aggressive batsman, there are few better in the world. australia know it. england chose to bowl first and

we re it. england chose to bowl first and were desperate for wickets. aaron finch, australia's captain hit this and watched james vince climb. the ball escaped. english teams are expected to reach world cup semifinals these days that of gareth southgate set the standard. but if the men's cricketers lose this match, their chances of missing out will increase, worrying me. that was australia to 100 without the loss of a wicket. then, for david warner, it suddenly went wrong. a miss hit to joe root. exit stage left. hero or villain, the crowd could decide. but warner was out for 53. aaron finch was trying to step it up. risky, but worth it. six. england needed to be sharp. at times, they weren't. watch jos buttler the wicketkeeper removed the bails but he dropped the ball. no good. at ben stokes to esmond khawaja, that was as out as out could be. on with the contest.

the skies above lords are finally starting to play and possibly the balance of the match may be going in the department way, with eight overs to come, australia would want a few more than 234 of england's response comes this afternoon and i think it could be pretty tense around tea—time. joe, thank you. joe wilson. now in mexico she's a heroine — frida — a search and rescue wonder dog, is hanging up her goggles and retiring from duties with the mexican navy after nine years of service. the labrador became famous for finding earthquake survivors in 2017, and is credited with having found 12 people alive and locating more than 40 bodies. will grant has the story. there were few greater symbols of hope during the mexico earthquake of 2017 than frida. the labrador retriever, clad in her protective eye mask and safety gear, went from building to building with her handler in the aftermath of the terrible disaster, looking for survivors

and often finding them, too. in 53 rescue missions, she's helped locate 12 people alive under the rubble, to be exact. and notjust in mexico. she travelled to haiti in 2010, guatemala in 2012, and ecuador in 2016. cheering however, now the time has come for her to hang up the goggles and the flak jacket and gnaw on a bone or two in peace instead. at a ceremony in mexico city, frida's uniform was removed and replaced with a chew toy. for many, frida seemed to represent an indefatigable spirit in the country that kept people going when the news kept getting worse. frida is yet to confirm the plans for her retirement, but it's believed she may move to the countryside. that was will grant reporting. time for a look at the weather. here's stav da naos. thank you very much. good afternoon. let's look at rainfall radar from this morning with heavy bursts of
