particularly blustery, touching 40—60 miles an hour for one or two. as we go through monday night and into tuesday, we will see a ridge of high pressure start to bow down from the west, the wind starting to ease down. so it will be a cooler start on tuesday morning, temperatures in single figures, a few showers to the north of scotland. most start the day with sunshine but some fair—weather cloud will build up, spread out, so a cloudier afternoon with some sunny spells and temperatures around 15—21 celsius. tuesday night into wednesday with light winds and clear skies once again once the daytime cloud disappears. it will be a cool start to the day but a bit more in the way of less cold air pushing around the top of our high—pressure system so temperatures will start to lift and there will be a bit more sunshine around on wednesday. always a bit more cloud to the north—west of scotland and later in northern ireland, and some rain into orkney and shetland later but the vast majority, a dry day, certainly starting to feel much warmer with a strong sunshine overhead and more of it
10:31 pm
in the south. high—pressure and more established for central and southern parts of the uk as we head into thursday,. these weather fronts pushing around the top more likely to bring more persistent rain to the highlands and islands of scotland, maybe some of that rain pushing down into central lighter, apatchy rain into southern scotland by the end of the day. the breeze picks up here, lighter winds further south, much more sunshine, it's going to start even warmer, temperatures back into the mid 20s, mid teens across scotland and northern ireland. a bit of uncertainty towards the end of the week as to how much this high—pressure influences. it looks like much of england and wales will be dry, varying amounts of cloud, some sunshine around, but there is a chance that we will see rain across scotland, may be also into northern ireland, and later, northern parts of england. for the weekend, the european model has that area of low pressure pushing eastwards, we draw northerly winds in to start the weekend so maybe a cool day on saturday before high—pressure
10:32 pm
builds back in from the west and temperatures start to rise of the weekend, with most under certain conditions. another option is that the high—pressure hose on a bit more, this is the american model, keeps the high pressure with us on saturday, the low could hasn't got as much an influence so maybe friday be dry. it keeps that high—pressure run throughout the weekend, it may be starting to draw in the slightly hotter air as we go towards the end of sunday. if that hot air does come in, that is potential for the following week to start off on a little bit of a thundery note, but there is a big question mark. depending on how they weekend plays out. either way, all the models are starting to show that we go back to westerly and atlantic winds during that week, with shallwe hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. with my guests. well we deceived
10:33 pm
both. first, the headlines. donald trump says it's a "great day for the world" after his walk across the border between north and south korea. stepping across that line was a great honour. a lot of progress has been made. a lot of friendships have been made and this has been in particular a great friendship. so, i just want to thank you. that was very quick notice and i want to thank you. police name the woman stabbed to death in her home while eight months pregnant. two men have now been arrested. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejohn rentoul, the chief political commentator at the independent, and ruth lea, who's an economic adviser for the arbuthnot banking group. many of tomorrow's front
10:34 pm
pages are already in. a look at some of the other papers. we start off with jeremy hunt offers tax cuts in package to keep britain "open for business" after brexit, says the front of the telegraph. the theme continues in the guardian, they say business groups have expressed anger afterjeremy hunt said he would tell people whose companies went bust after a no—deal brexit that their sacrifice had been necessary. kylie minogue graces the front page of the independent, for her performance at glastonbury, with the headline saying cases of children with mental health problems have doubled. in the financial times, it's a photo of donald trump and kim jong—un dominating the front page, after their historic meeting in the demilitarised zone. "end tv licence scandal now mrs may". the mirror has gordon brown demanding theresa may steps in to keep free tv licences
10:35 pm
for the over 75s. 0k, ok, so that was a little book at some of those front pages. let's look at the telegraph. it isjeremy hunt. ruth, do you want to kick us off? why not. boris johnson is saying we will have these tax cuts but nonejeremy saying we will have these tax cuts but none jeremy hunt saying we will have these tax cuts but nonejeremy hunt says will have these tax cuts... but he doesn't tell us is over what period of time this will be. with the suddenly happen in one year? who knows. i think we have to look at more detail to be absolutely confident as to what he is thinking about. he talks about how we have this 26, 20 £7 billion we wait that philip hammond is going on about. that's a flaky figure to say the least. i would be
10:36 pm
careful with it. the other thing i would say is if there is a no—deal, then this will have an enormous impact on the economy. i really do doubt that. the impact? i doubt there would be a major impact on the country if there is no deal. there isa country if there is no deal. there is a general assumption that there would be for some i'm not convinced about that at office of i think that is another aspect of project fear before the referendum. what is major impact, what would talk kay qualify? 0ne impact, what would talk kay qualify? one or impact, what would talk kay qualify? 0ne or2% in impact, what would talk kay qualify? one or 2% in gdp. i think that would bea minor one or 2% in gdp. i think that would be a minor disruption, i would one or 2% in gdp. i think that would be a minor disruption, iwould not ta ke be a minor disruption, iwould not take that too seriously. the other thing i would say about this is the economy already is at full employment. so to turbo—charge it strikes me as not particularly appropriate under the circumstances. such a good word that jeremy hunt
10:37 pm
twice using a lot. he wakes turbo—charge and. twice using a lot. he wakes turbo-charge and. yes, i don't like using that. ruth this is germy hunt admitted that a node your price it would be an absolute disaster. he is suggesting that it requires a huge injection of public spending or tax cuts in order to try and rectify the damage done to the economy. by energy or brexit. and i don't believe him and i don't agree with you. i know you don't! how on earth do you think leaving the eu without a deal and having to pay tariffs on oui’ a deal and having to pay tariffs on our trade with the eu is would be something you can brush aside? you can't brush it aside for some i think there will be some sort of disruption. let's just keep think there will be some sort of disruption. let'sjust keep in perspective what a trade is. we have an enormous trade deficit with the eu. if there is a fall in trade,... we would benefit from a fall of
10:38 pm
trade? we went export west and import less... i don't think there will be a major impact on the economy in a no—deal brexit. will be a major impact on the economy in a no—deal brexitlj directed tojohn economy in a no—deal brexitlj directed to john first saw. do you think both boris johnson directed to john first saw. do you think both borisjohnson and jeremy huntare think both borisjohnson and jeremy hunt are actually going to find making good on these promises a lot harder? ruth and i will disagree about this. i thought we were going to agree. i don't think either of them will be able to get us out of them will be able to get us out of the european union because they will not be of it to get a new deal brexit through the house of commons, parliament will stop them. and they would not get a deal to the house of commons... i certainly disagree with that. same subject but we are turning to another paper. keep us under control! this is the guardian and jeremy hunt saying business is
10:39 pm
going bust worth the price for the time ecker bursa. the allegation of a harder line? this is the other side of the same story ofjb hunt saying this would be damage but he is prepared to do it if there is no deal in prospect. —— jeremy hunt. he was asked what he would say to a business person who is going to have to make people redundant as a result ofa to make people redundant as a result of a no—deal brexit and he said in effect too bad. it would be with a heavy heart he said but he would have to do it. his narrative would not be mind because i think he is etc and the economic impact of no deal. i suspect the guardian in its own little way has taken it slightly out of context. they have going to business groups and business groups have to say both businesses are going bust this is a bad thing for some but i think this is grossly exaggerated. debbie geo terrace, how much will that... wto tariffs, how
10:40 pm
much will that... wto tariffs, how much with the cost britain quezada it will not cost... it will cause the european union more than it will cost us. moving on. vft, european officials arrived there —— derided there. a remarkable little story from the man who used to be trade commissioner. he is blaming brexit on borisjohnson. borisjohnson is reporting for the telegraph in brussels 30 years ago, he is saying it is all his fault because he invented the concept of fake news 30 years ago and the consequence of thatis years ago and the consequence of that is that we have brexit now. years ago and the consequence of that is that we have brexit nowm has nothing to do with nitro for russian 70.4 million people, never! they have all been taken in by the blonde bombshell. they have all been taken in by the blonde bombshelllj they have all been taken in by the blonde bombshell. i was taken in by all this. you read all of this liquid it has done to you. it's
10:41 pm
maybe the person i am today! talk about a silly story. we know that boris tended to embellish, i am thinking of the word... embellishes a good word. off scripts lately? we know that but they did that he is responsible for brexit single—handedly... responsible for brexit single-handedly. .. it was a precursor. it's a bit much. to stay with the f t, donald trump is made history. he set foot on north korean soil. he is an external ramp -- he isa soil. he is an external ramp -- he is a very extra and imprisoned in many ways because he has been talked to the chinese over his trade talks. i think this is very interesting because he is still trying to keep contact with north korea and i suspect that the end of the day he is really insisting that north korea gives up its nokia weapons. mr campbell say no. i think it is
10:42 pm
extremely helpful and encouraging that they are talking to each other. it's worth a try is what i would say. but ice shares great scepticism as it director if it will work. when you saw that whole show and that presentation of that walk towards the dmc, what did you make of that, what went through your mind when you saw that? i thought if an american dangerdid it saw that? i thought if an american danger did it the lesson they're talking, it was not the president. they have up the scale. it all very hopeful. —— an american representative did later. mr kim said he was not going to do it. i suspect that is how this will end this time because it would be like an act of weakness i think from the north korean point of view.|j an act of weakness i think from the north korean point of view. i think trump is the big of the world stage which he is of course. mr kim is just giving the impression that he
10:43 pm
isa just giving the impression that he is a reasonable person which i think it's fair enough but at the end of the day i have said what i think, i can't see him putting away his nokia weapons because of this. but at least they can talk us. the final paperfor this particular addition is the daily mirror. and at the tv licence scanner now, mrs may so says gordon brown stop with gordon brown who as chancellor introduced free tv licences for 70 fives and over. there was a deal done in 2015 by believed david cambron, george osborne saying that the bbc would have to take over responsibility giving people free tv licences which would cost the bbc effect of its revenue starting next year. —— i believe by david cameron. gordon brown is appealing to theresa may as one of her legacy, she trying to spray one of her legacy, she trying to
10:44 pm
spray cash. philip hammond is trying to stop her. she's trying to cement her legacy and the few weeks she has before she goes. it was his legacy? it was stopping to fantastic successful mps and pms with the same legacy. free tv licences for the over 70 fives. you think she is like to ta ke over 70 fives. you think she is like to take it up the? i don't know. i don't think philip hammond will let her. she couldn't spend money on schools that she wanted to the other day. that is a matter for the next prime minister. good evening. ruth? i agree. on that note! that's it for the papers this hour. john and ruth will be back at 11.30 for another look at the papers, and don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news
10:45 pm
website, bbc.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you tojohn and ruth. we'll all be back for that second paper review in about 40 minutes. now time for the travel show. three, two, one... laughs. getting mucky in the name of conservation in thailand. highfive! and going under in austria. we're starting this week in thailand, in the small, coastal village of khlong khon, in samut songkhram province, 90 minutes south—west of bangkok. few international travellers venture here, but in recent years the amazing transformation of its ecosystem has begun
10:46 pm
to draw people, like me. while it may not be one of the most beautiful ecosystems, it's actually quite full of life. there's snails, cockles, crabs, macaques, birds — all kinds of wildlife here. there is a monkey right here with a crab in its mouth. this place is quite an experience. because here in what might look like in endless sea of mud, there are local delicacies and a story of a community who have fought back from the brink of disaster. i arranged to meet up with a local guide to show me around. and as we get farther out from the village, you can see the ingenuity that these people have taken to the rivers.
10:47 pm
so all morning, at low tide, they push like they're on a skateboard and they pick the cockles — the clams. and i hear that travellers can give it a try, too. this local fisherman is on hand to show me how it's done. on all fours, right? chauffeur service, not bad at all. the mud is so slick and slippery, one little push... you go pretty far. but then finding cockles is no easy task. this, this is a cockle? it's the size of a marble.
10:48 pm
we're finding this little, tiny clam... laughs. 0k. look at that, it's tiny. well, after an hour, even i managed to find some cockles, but the fishing here hasn't always been so good. the shellfish, shrimps and crabs which thrive in this environment were also at the brink of collapse just a few decades ago because of the dramatic loss of one simple thing, mangroves. industrial shrimp farming left the mangrove forest decimated, and with it a fragile ecosystem that the villages depended on to survive.
10:49 pm
10:50 pm
ok, when i knew i was going to be planting mangroves, i brought hiking boots. good traction, kinda of waterproof, apparently this is the footwear of choice. —— this is not the footwear of choice. we wear these. which is a fusion of yoga pants and a women's brassiere, and i put these on my feet, and we go almost waist—deep in the mud, and that's how we plant mangroves. so, iam ready. three, two, one... laughs. this is — this is really... i'm knee deep and i'm still sinking further.
10:51 pm
how does it work? one, i got one. so dig a hole... and you plant it in, just like a normal tree. all right. over 32 years since the replanting began, the mangrove forest has regained a third of what was lost. right here? that's good? 0k. fun fact about the mangrove tree. they're actually shaped this way, like a torpedo, because when they fall from the trees, they go bloop! and they're supposed to stick in the ground themselves. and so they can basically plant themselves. and there we go. 0k. mangrove forest, one step bigger. highfive! much of this area is now under royal protection, meaning that the new mangrove forest can't be destroyed. and the village has become a model for others working to protect and restore their mangrove forest. but maybe tourists aren't the best people to help restore this fragile ecosystem. i'd heard that a healthy mangrove
10:52 pm
forest needs a range of mangrove species in order to survive, which tourists can't really co—ordinate. prapuspong told me that this has been considered. and of course, there's more than one way to get clean after a day exploring the mangroves. i'm told that years ago, local kids found another use for these boards. it's great to give something back when you're travelling. but hey, it is even better if you have a little fun along the way. laughs.
10:53 pm
i'm a professional free diver. free diving means you go diving without any equipment. just the mask and the air in yourlungs. it was a dream from my childhood, i always was in love with the water. at the beginning when i did my first free dive i was so fascinated that i was hoping for something to go again under the ice. then we found out that ice
10:54 pm
hockey is an actual sport, you have to work hard for it, even on the land. and it was so much fun that we made regulations about it. in one world championship we had eight different nations and in each nation we have two players. are you ready? the main problem is always the fact that the other players, because a normal hockey player makes no sense under the ice, you need good free divers, very good ones. it's already a big challenge to go under the ice.
10:55 pm
it's a cold temperature, difficult orientate and to come up to the surface whenever you want. it's a very quick game. and because we are so quick you need much more oxygen. i cannot break my legs, my arms, like in the real ice hockey, so it's much safer under the ice. the only problem is you can easily lose orientation. you need to calculate how much time you have to swim to the hole. for me, it makes no difference if i have ten world records are 11 world records, now i want to use my world records to take attention and bring attention to all the provinces we have here. now the problem is trying
10:56 pm
to break my world record attempts. if you want to play against me, in ice hockey, under the ice, you are more than welcome. but of course, despite his invitation, don't even think about doing underwater ice hockey without expert help and supervision. hello there. the full uk for come up in a moment but i thought we would reflect on the full week of weather in europe. in extreme heat wave that saw a record smashed in these countries in june and the new marking france a 46 celsius beating the previousjune record by 5 degrees is now the highest average or ever recorded in the country. but the heatwave is easing its grip and of the next few days, cooper atlantic air will be
10:57 pm
flowing in across europe really knocking those temperatures back down to where they should be this time of year. for us here in the uk weather—wise many areas have had some sunshine and broken cloud for some sunshine and broken cloud for some we will keep this kind of cloud in the skies for the week ahead. drive with mostly spells of sunshine. there will be showers in the northwest. whenever the sunset comes out heading intojuly it will feel pleasantly warm. overnight tonight it will stay dry for most of them and wales although there could bea them and wales although there could be a few shows across the northwest and showers for northern ireland and scotland. frequent showers in the northwest here. captures overnight between i! and i3 northwest here. captures overnight between i! and 13 degrees. monday's forecast an area of low—pressure moves to the north of scotland. this seclusion will bring showers southwards with time is that inclusion hasn't in northern england and perhaps a north midlands taking and perhaps a north midlands taking a few showers here. the far south should stay dry, southern prince of
