this is bbc news, the headlines at 8pm. the us and china agree to resume talks to ease their trade war — and speaking at the 620 summit in osaka president trump says companies will be able to trade with huawei. we are talking about equipment where there is no great national emergency problem with it, but the us companies can sell their equipment. donald trump visits south korea — north korea has not yet said whether its leader, kimjong—un, will meet the us president when he visits the border between the two koreas tomorrow. the conservative party leadership candidate boris johnson takes to the stage at hustings in manchester — jeremy hunt is up shortly. the uk enjoys the hottest day of the year so far — with temperatures soaring across southern england.

a top temperature of 3a celsius is recorded in heathrow. sweden are through to the semifinals of the women's world cup. and then there were four — as sweden join the netherlands, usa and england in the semi finals of the women's world cup. good evening. first to some use and from the metropolitan police of detectives investigating a pregnant woman who suffered fatal stab wounds at a residential address in croydon.

officers were called along with the london ambulance service at 3:30am this morning to reports of a woman in cardiac arrest at this address. the women aged 26 was suffering from sta b the women aged 26 was suffering from stab injuries and it was established she was apparently eight—month pregnant. despite the efforts of paramedics the victim died at the scene. the baby was delivered before being taken to hospital and remains ina being taken to hospital and remains in a critical condition. more information, a 37—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is in custody. some distressing news they are from metropolitan police. the united states and china have agreed to resume talks to ease the trade war between the world's two largest economies. us president donald trump and china's president xi jinping reached the agreement at the g20 summit injapan. mr trump also said american companies can once again sell products to the chinese tech giant huawei, after an effective ban

on such sales was introduced in may. from osaka, nick bryant sent this report. this was the day when the g20 summit of the world's wealthiest nations essentially became a g2. these talks between donald trump and xijinping, by far the most consequential meeting of this global gathering. it ended with a ceasefire in the trade war, an agreement to restart talks that fell apart last month. but the us president made a major concession, lifting some restrictions on huawei, the chinese tech giant at the centre of what's felt like a commercial cold war. we had a very good meeting with president xi of china. excellent, i would say excellent. as good as it was going to be. we discussed a lot of things, and we are right back on track. the other headline of the day, mr trump's impromptu invitation to kim jong—un, via twitter, to meet him tomorrow at the demilitarised zone separating north and south korea. we won't call it a summit, we'll call it a handshake.

if it does happen. i don't know that it will. but it could happen. i don't know, i think he'd like to do it, and i wouldn't mind doing it at all. i'm literally visiting the dmz. in another face—to—face with another autocratic leader, the saudi crown prince, mohammed bin salman, mr trump could hardly have been more complimentary. thank you, on behalf of a lot of people. and i want to congratulate you. you've done a really spectacularjob. and he ignored questions about the murder of the saudi journalist jamal khasshoggi — which us intelligence believes was ordered by the crown prince. reporter: mr president, will you address the murder of jamal khashoggi, sir? uh... thank you very much. this summit has highlighted a stark global divide between advocates of the post—war liberal order and nationalists, such as vladimir putin, who's described it as obsolete. it's getting harder to tell which side the united states is on. from joking with vladimir putin about russia meddling in next year's us presidential election to his cosiness with

the saudi crown prince, donald trump has arguably shown more admiration here for authoritarian leaders than america's traditional allies. he arrived tonight in seoul for a preplanned dinner with south korea's president. but will he get his date at the dmz with his friend from the totalitarian north? nick bryant, bbc news, osaka. north korea has not yet said whether its leader, kim jong—un, will meet donald trump when the us president visits the border between the two koreas tomorrow. in what mr trump described as a spontaneous gesture, he said on twitter he could shake mr kim's hand and say hello. pyongyang said it hadn't received an official invitation from mr trump, but described his offer as "interesting." speaking to us earlier, aidan foster—carter, a korea analyst at leeds university, said real progress wasn't likely to be found from such a meeting:

you have got used to this extraordinary way of doing diplomacy, which is not the secret stuff governments do behind the scenes, very carefully planned and managed and now we have these tweets. i do not take it wholly at face value, the idea this visit to south korea after the g20 has been planned for weeks and that has been speculation for a fortnight that it will be very easy to do something like showbiz, not substantial at the demilitarised zone. they are planning something and we will know soon, then i think it was not... everything takes more planning than that particularly with north korea. interesting you say this is the new way of doing diplomacy, but it isn't just a fabulous photo opportunity if the north korean president says yes? i feel that is right. the north korean president says yes?

ifeel that is right. anyway the north korean president says yes? i feel that is right. anyway it is deplorable what one may think donald trump is any number of ways, to authoritarians, but in the north korean situation the very fact of having a summit, the first was insubstantial, the second was a debacle. he has broken through some stuff, the trouble is you have to eventually get to the substance and we have this weird disconnect, this bromance between the leader of the free world and the leader of the world is at least free state, i love the guy, they said each other letters but in the four months since hanol letters but in the four months since hanoi, north korea has refused any meetings and fired a couple of missiles, small fry system by the do not think that way in south korea andjapan and not think that way in south korea and japan and there has been no progress at all. they need to move forward at some time and if they do meet that is better than nothing but it will just be meet that is better than nothing but it willjust be pleasantries which i suppose is better than being unpleasant. remember the talked

about little rocket man and it is a strange mixture. jeremy hunt and borisjohnson have been in carlisle, taking questions from local party members — but they're now at another hustings in manchester. and we can go live to the hustings now... you haven't heard that before. who he has set up their own business question put up your hand. look around, this is why i love the conservative party. and what is the thing that entrepreneurs do every day? they negotiate. what is the first rule of negotiation? you have to be prepared to walk away if you have not got something you want. what is the second row? you have to figure out what the other players are going to do. in the case of brexit, the other players notjust the commission but also parliament.

and its repeated attempts to block a no—deal brexit. that is why the safest a nd no—deal brexit. that is why the safest and quickest way to deliver brexit is to send a prime minister to brussels who can come back with ideal we can get through parliament and asa ideal we can get through parliament and as a negotiator and a businessman that is what i am going to do for our country. there is a very simple reason why. as foreign secretary i go around the world and people say to me you are one of the old est people say to me you are one of the oldest democracies, are you really going to deliver this brexit? and i look back at them and say, the best thing about our country is that we are somewhere where the politicians do what the people tell them to do. that is why we are going to respect the referendum results, deliver brexit and make it a fantastic success. that is what we will do in this country.

applause and when we do the most incredible opportunities await our country. as someone opportunities await our country. as someone who has set up on their own iam champing someone who has set up on their own i am champing at the bit to turn our country into the fastest—growing, most high—tech and pro—enterprise and greenest economy in europe. you see that here in manchester when i was this afternoon, the science park thatis was this afternoon, the science park that is going to travel and size over the next few years, it has been such a success. we have in this country top universities, more technology entrepreneurs, fantastic companies developing new medicines, put all that together we could be the worlds next silicon valley. why does that matter? because right now at the point of brexit we need to park economic jumbo jet on at the point of brexit we need to park economicjumbo jet on europe was back doorstep so when it comes

to trade negotiations they need us every bit as much as we need them. that is what we are going to do. applause i would also be the first prime minister responsible for the nhs and that was an incredible privilege and here in manchester you have some fantastic hospitals. i had my battles when i was health secretary but i was incredible proud that by the end nearly 3 million more patients were using a good or outstanding hospitals compared to when i started. i have always believed that we conservatives need to have a social mission as well as an economic mission. i want our next social mission to be education. i wa nt social mission to be education. i want us to tackle the fact that still even after the improvements we

made nearly a quarter of primary school leavers cannot read or write. to the required standard. i want us to be the conservative government that abolishes literacy and says that abolishes literacy and says that every single young person living education will leave with a qualification, rigorous qualification, rigorous qualification that means they can look forward to a decently paid job. when we do that we will show people about the broadness of our conservative vision. that is the foreign secretary jeremy conservative vision. that is the foreign secretaryjeremy hunt taking the stage at the hustings for the 20 leadership campaign. talking about education and his past as a health secretary and his background as an entrepreneur and how that mean he is better qualified to deliver brexit than his rival. our political reporter claire hamilton is where the second hustings is taking place...

any surprises from either boris johnsonjeremy any surprises from either boris johnson jeremy hunt?|j any surprises from either boris johnson jeremy hunt? i think the biggest surprise of this evening was the applause that came from a text message apparently from the labour metro mayor of greater manchester andy burnham who sent a text question in about whether fi andy burnham who sent a text question in about whether f1 is just became prime minister in manchester would see the same level or be at the foot of the queue for investment as he said london has been for 30 yea rs ? as he said london has been for 30 years? but what a huge round of applause from the conservative party members and it is clear brexit as the main reason why they are here, they told me as they were queueing to get in that how polished johnson and jeremy hunt deal with this crucial moment as the number one thing on the list. further down that last and not much further as

infrastructure, train travel and roads in the north—west and industry. we have seen in the last week the announcement from vauxhall that i no—deal brexit would not be good news and there needs to be a good news and there needs to be a good deal brexit for the new astra to be built there and always things bubbling in the minds of the people who are listening and it is a big hall and a bit of a buzz around it and quitea hall and a bit of a buzz around it and quite a diverse range of people, and quite a diverse range of people, a large number of young people surprisingly obvious that an architect for glastonbury and spending a saturday night here in manchester at these hustings. good for them. thank you. and we'll find out how this story — and many others — are covered in tomorrow's front pages at 10:30 and 11:30 this evening in the papers. our guests joining me tonight are the journalist and author, christina patterson, and katherine forster, a journalist at the sunday times.

the headlines on bbc news... a woman who was eight months pregnant has been stabbed to death in thornton heath, south london, and her baby is critically ill in hospital. the us and china agree to resume talks to ease their trade war — and speaking at the g20 summit in osaka, president trump says companies will be able to trade with huawei. and donald trump visits south korea. north korea has not yet said whether its leader, kim jong—un, will meet the us president when he visits the border between the two koreas tomorrow. sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's ben. good evening. england's hopes of reaching the cricket world cup semifinals have suffered a big setback, after pakistan beat afghanistan at headingley in leeds. afghanistan chose to bat, but never built any momentum. pakistan's shaheen shah afridi

taking 4 wickets to restrict afghanistan to 227—9. but pakistan made hard work of their run chase and were struggling at 157—6. but theyjust got over the line, imad wasim's unbeaten 49 securing a 3 wicket win, and they now move above england into the top 4. new zealand can knock australia off the top of the table at lords. australia won the toss and decided to bat first and that looked to be a very suspect decision as they were reduced to 92 for five. australia rallied with usman khawaja and alex carey but a trent boult hat—trick in the final over restricted australia to 2113 for nine. in reply new zealand's talisman kane williamson was out for a0 and the black caps are falling behind the rate — currently 126 for 6. if pakistan win their last game against bangladesh,

it means england will have to win both of their remaining group games to make the semifinals. england have a massive game against unbeaten india at edgbaston tomorrow — win and a place in the semifinals will be in their own hands. they face new zealand on wednesday. captain eoin morgan faced the media today and was asked about injury doubts jofra archer and jason roy. jasonis jason is preparing to play tomorrow and provided he gets through practice unscathed we think he might be fit to play. jofra didn't ball yesterday and we have to see how he comes through today, he has been playing with it for the past three games so playing with it for the past three games so you'll see how comes through today. in the women's world cup, sweden will face the netherlands in the semifinals following their 2—1 victory over two—time world champions germany,

the first time they've beaten them in a major competition for 2h years. in a repeat of the 2003 final won by germany, took an early lead, capitalising on a poor pass back as lina magull finished with a neat volley. but minutes later, sweden came back with a long ball forward cutting through the german defence to find sofia jakobsson for the equaliser, the first time the germans had conceded at this world cup. in the second half, stina blackstenius gave the swedes the lead, smashing home after a great save from the german keeper to send her nation to the semifinals. the result also means germany will not get the chance to defend their olympic gold medal in tokyo next year. earlier in valenciennes, the european champions, the netherlands, secured their spot in the semi—finals with a 2—0 win over italy. two second—half headers from vivianne miedema and stefanie van der gragt carried the dutch to the last fourfor the first time. lewis hamilton will start tomorrow's austrian grand prix from fourth after he was given a penalty in qualifying.

the championship leader had qualified in second behind ferrari's charles leclerc. but the stewards punished hamilton for "unnecessarily impeding" alfa romeo's kimi raikkonen. max verstappen will start alongside leclerc on the front row. taylor fritz, who beat kyle edmund in the semifinals, is the men's champion at the eastbourne international tennis. it was an all—american final, he beat sam querrey in straight sets in exactly an hour. it's the 21—year—old's first tour title. he faces tomasz berdych in the first round at wimbledon on tuesday. in the women's final, world number three karolina pliskova defeated wimbledon champion angelique kerber in straight sets. the czech pliskova didn't drop a set in the whole tournament. we are playing ball in the london stadium for the first time. not football — but baseball. it's the first time major league baseball are playing a game in europe. it's the new york yankees and the boston red sox — two of the biggest sides in the sport. the aim is to try to grow the game

on this side of the atlantic in the same way that american football and basketball have done in the last decade or so. and there's been a moment of history tonight as arron hicks as hit the first home run in europe. a moment to remember for the new york yankees player! these are live pictures now from the london stadium. we are at the top of the fourth innings, about halfway through. the yankees leading 8—6, bases loaded. you can follow this one on the bbc iplayer and the bbc sport website and app. plenty more on all the day's stories on there too. i'll have more in the next hour. jeremy corbyn has said he's shocked by reports that senior civil servants have questioned his mental and physical health. he was responding to an article in the times newspaper, which said senior figures in whitehall were concerned that he was too frail to serve as prime minister. and he raised concerns over the neutrality

of the civil service. i think it's nonsense what they have written and it's diminishing of what was once a great newspaper that the front page should be full of tittle tattle from civil servants and people who don't know me or don't understand me. i am a very fit and healthy and very active person. i love what i do, i love my community and i love being outdoors. the idea that civil servants should be briefing newspapers against an elected politician, against a prospective government is something that should be very concerning to a lot of people. the civil service has to be independent, has to be nonpolitical, and has to be nonjudgmental of the politicians that they have a duty to serve in the future. and i would make that very clear to them all, if we are elected to government we will come in with a clear

programme of things we want to do in the country, for housing health, education, environment so many things, we will explain those to our colleagues in the civil service and expect them to carry out those policies. that is the way british democracy must work. it's been the hottest day of the year so far in the uk — with the highest temperature being recorded at heathrow in west london — where it hit 3a degrees. despite the heat, temperatures haven't quite reached thejune record set back in 1976 which was almost two degrees higher at 35.6. our correspondent michael cowan reports from southend on sea. yes, we have been here all day in southend where it's been an absolute scorcher, you can see behind me at five o'clock, the beach was still absolutely packed, the tide's gone out but the people are still swimming all day to deal with the heat and temperature have topped out at about 30 degrees, we spoke to locals about how are dealing with the heat.

keeping cool isn't easy when the mercury is rising. the sea helps. as does the breeze. we're in southend—on—sea, with its quintessentially british striped deck chairs and fish and chips. locals say it's the busiest they've ever seen the resort. but on britain's hottest day of the year so far, how are beach—goers here keeping cool? it is hot but we're keeping cool, with the breeze off the estuary, drinking plenty of water and coke, you know, whatever we can get hold of. i just wear stuff that has loads of holes in it so that the breeze can just come and help me. keep sun creams on, keep sun hats on. keep yourself cool, that's it. you rent the deckchairs out that everyone has. how busy have you been today? we've had the busiest day of the year so far, to be honest. easter was ok but this weekend is absolutely brilliant. we're nearly sold out on all our chairs, that's how well we're doing at the moment. no chairs left?

well, we've got a few left, but they're running out fast. so, yeah, best day ever. tomorrow, the mercury drops and will bring the country back to its seasonal average. michael cowan, bbc news, southend—on—sea. the british—iranian woman, nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe, who is currently serving a five year jail sentence in iran has ended her hunger strike. she's been convicted of spying — a charge she denies. her husband richard ratcliffe also ended his hunger strike outside the iranian embassy in london where he has been for the last 15 days. here's what he told the bbc radio a's, today programme this morning. i had a phone call this morning, and it is good news, she had decided to stop a hunger strike, so i will be stopping it, so good news. good news for yourself but particularly for her? that's quite right, it was getting hard for me, but i'm sure it is harder for her. she said she had had some breakfast this morning,

a bit of porridge with some apple and banana, and i'm relieved, because we wouldn't have wanted to push it much longer. that was the voice of richard ratcliffe a little earlier. liam gallagher is performing on the main stage at the glastonbury festival. later tonight, the killers will be headline act on the pyramid stage. they'll be following in the footseps of stormzy, who last night became the first solo black british artist to headline the festival. well, a short time ago i spoke to our entertainment correspondent, lizo mzimba, who told me that stormzy‘s performance last night, really impressed festival—goers. that's right, people are in many places still talking about that stormzy headline performance. last night he did not let the opportunity pass to make some political points in front of the huge audience he was given. ranging from his view that the criminaljustice system has a racial bias through to the arts

and criticisms of privilege and racism in the world of ballet. but none of it was at the expense of what he was here to do and that was to entertain tens of thousands of fans in front of the main pyramid stage. like his set and many others, glastonbury aims to be as inclusive as it possibly can and one of the ways that does that is by having people signing along for the deaf. we have been speaking to tara, one of the people who signed alongside with stormzy at the set last night. i have interpreted for stormzy a couple of times, obviously it was his first headlining at glastonbury on the pyramid stage so it was a momentous set for him to have done. it felt really good, really nice to be able to provide access to deaf people who have paid for tickets to come here to watch the headliners. there has been much to live up to on the second day of the festival

which had its own challenges, the hottest day of the year so far for many festivalgoers, certainly here in glastonbury. as it has been across many other places in the country. people seem to have enjoyed the music. liam gallagher is on stage at the moment, the killers later then tomorrow the legend that is kylie minogue. meant to headline here back in 2005, she had to withdraw when she was diagnosed with breast cancer but now she is finally back to play a full set, for many people that will be potentially one of the highlights of sunday. the queen has addressed the scottish parliament to mark 20 years of devolution. in a speech to msps she said she'd "watched scotland grow and prosper" since holyrood took on its legal powers two decades ago. the queen attended the ceremony with prince charles. our correspondent alexandra mackenzie joined the crowds to catch a glimse of the ceremony.

scotland is an old nation with a relatively new parliament. it's seen two decades of devolution. the queen, joined by the duke of rothesay, said she fondly remembered the opening ceremony. today, she was back addressing the current msps. i have no doubt that for most of these last 20 years this striking chamber has provided exactly that — a place to talk. but, of course, it must also be a place to listen. a place to hear views that inevitably may differ quite considerably, one from another. and a place to honour those views. the political landscape has changed dramatically since 1999. that's what's called competition, i think... the first first minister was the labour leader, the late donald dewar. nicola sturgeon was then a young snp msp. now, she's first minister. the 290 acts of parliament that have

been passed so far have varied in their impact. but from land reform, in the first parliament to equal marriage in the last, to the social security act in this, they have all made scotland a better place. some in the crowd had come to grab a glimpse of the queen. others came to mark a moment in scotland's political history. independence—wise, i was totally against it. but i can see why we've got our own parliament, for coming forward with certain laws. the scottish parliament has allowed us to have a bit more of a voice for the nhs in scotland, and certainly some of the initiatives that have come forward in scotland. as the queen leaves the scottish parliament, people here say they feel a mixture of optimism and uncertainty about the next 20 years. the emphasis today was on unity. but as brexit dominates the uk political agenda, the snp government has said it brings an independent scotland a step closer. as the late donald dewar said,

devolution is a journey with no end. alexandra mackenzie, bbc news, edinburgh. now it's time for a look at the weather with chris fawkes. it has been the hottest day of the year so far with impotence reaching 34 year so far with impotence reaching 3a in west london around heathrow but all change for sunday, temperatures easing as atlantic air flows across the country. temperatures dropping, still reasonable and above normal across eastern areas. the weather picture shows thunderstorms in scotland and northern england, clearing to the north sea further showers followed to the north—west overnight, otherwise try and a very warm start to the night in london, an uncomfortable night ahead, eventually temperatures dropping to about 16. tomorrow quite a bit of clout for north—western areas
