ufititflié: football and after that, a little bit more pressure in the premier league. by the club continues to recruit for their season in 13 yea rs, recruit for their season in 13 years, while committing his future, it could prove to be the most important move before the transfer window closes. his contract is widely deserved and everybody from the youngest down our happy that he has been given improved contracts and rewarded because that whole journey, as everyone knows is been amazing and he has been the catalyst for it on the pitch. his success has been down to his ability to get the most after the he's had in the squad. everyone looks up to them, not only as a manager but as a father figure, everyone wants to give him success as well and that's why i think he discovered he has. sheffield united are working hard to ensure that there will be ready for

the start of the premier league season. the start of the premier league season. but while is all too aware that he may need to break the bank again to sign the players he wants. we will break our transfer record again the summerand we will break our transfer record again the summer and we did. and we will break it again. but the first fixture at bournemouth in a month's time, he is ready for what he says will be an exciting ride. before we go, back to wimbledon and robert lindstedt may think twice about partnering jelena 0stapenko in the mixed doubles at wimbldeon in the future. she hit him on the head with a serve a few days ago. and today, it happened again. here comes the serve. lindstedt getting the bash on the head and then quickly reminding his partner it's happened twice now. after taking more punishment

in their match again today — the good news is they won the game and linstedt‘s got time to buy a helmet before they play again tomorrow! that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are former fleet street editor eve pollard and stephen bush — the political editor, new statesman. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. ‘thrown under the bus by boris' —— that's the metro's lead as britain's ambassador to the us quits over his leaked critical comments about donald trump. the paper reports that

sir kim darroch had felt forced to resign because borisjohnson refused to back him in last night's television debate. meanwhile, according to the daily telegraph, allies of mrjohnson — who is the frontrunner should he become prime minister. the guardian leads with sir kim darroch's resignation but also features claims from former labour staff that efforts the guardian leads with sir kim darroch's resignation but also features claims from former labour staff that efforts to address anti—semitism within the party were undermined. the eight whistle—blowers defied gagging orders to speak to bbc‘s panorama. the work and pensions secretary will review benefit rules for the dying after the council impact. take us to

the front of the telegraph. boris must choose our the front of the telegraph. boris must choose oui’ new man the front of the telegraph. boris must choose our new man in washington and allies of boris johnson. washington and allies of boris johnson. you have allies and the opposite of allies reportsjohnson, but in ten days' time he may be the next prime minister and allies is saying that theresa may, who was still the prime minister, should choose somebody within that time. but ten days without ambassador in some places importing as washington is quite difficult. they should have a conversation and try and agree on who they both think might be a good ambassador. i feel terribly sorry for him. he had nowhere to go except resigned because he just

for him. he had nowhere to go except resigned because hejust felt for him. he had nowhere to go except resigned because he just felt if if he is not being supported by boris and of donald trump was not going to see him, he had to go. interestingly, he said nothing more outrageous than what is appeared in the newspaper and the democrats saying get all over america, there was nothing more shocking and it than that. but he has obviously been hurt. it was such a pity because things are going so well after that road trip. what is your take on it? the interesting thing is that they support her, the when they see boris allies, they feel like it is pretty reliable. i think the interesting thing here is, you can both see the argument, it is a key diplomatic post. it is appropriate for the prime minister. but i cannot think of a worse thing for borisjohnson to but i cannot think of a worse thing for boris johnson to have to do on

day one than this incident which is not gone that well for him, to have to immediately dig it all up for him to immediately dig it all up for him to have another argument about whether or not he should of backed to darroch or if he is an agent of trump or just a to darroch or if he is an agent of trump orjust a poodle, i think it would've been much better off if theresa may picked a servant and it just would've meant the story went away. the scrutiny of that if it is boris johnson's away. the scrutiny of that if it is borisjohnson's decision to make, where is the normal circumstances, no one would pay attention to it. what seems to me is taking the eye off the ball here, but i want to know is who leaked the story? and how many people have their eyes on the story and should we be changing that? and i am not the worlds most brilliant digital expert, but could a foreign power have gotten into and discovered the story? because to mess things up between britain and

america, if you aren't on the opposite side is a rather useful thing to do —— are on the opposite side. the quote alan duncan who has been quite outspoken about what he sees a porousjohnson's role in kim darroch's departure. allen duncan, there are many people who dislike porousjohnson but there are many people who dislike porous johnson but even for those guys, they look at him and they say lam not guys, they look at him and they say i am not quite at that level. but it isa very i am not quite at that level. but it is a very explosive quote but more importantly, what this is done, it does not matter if they have already voted, it is boris if he becomes prime minister in today's time. they'll say, we need to unify around oui’ they'll say, we need to unify around our next prime his disposition, his judgement under fire, his ability to actually do the job prime minister, andi actually do the job prime minister, and i think i cannot imagine a worse

way for these last ten days of the contest to have gone for boris johnson. you make an interesting observation, but the idea that those who voted will have done so already. this is the generation that does everything the night before. they will of voted on saturday, not quite sure of the post and they will of voted literally as soon as they can in the idea that most of those papers in the office right now, is madness. so for the next ten days, what do they account for? this weekend, haven't they? it will be time for us to all of us to talk about game changing moments and you think about when you get some posts and they get them saying do this, yet the door right away or five days later you're standing down in sync

on my goodness. this would be just like that. you'll you are allowed to, they are doubly allowed to be about that. they're like rare birds, these people. they are hanging on and the agent vilification and it is really sad that these very emotive things are thrown under the bus with all the rest of it. how has this country ever going to get back together? wanted to the papers touching it, the panorama programme focus on anti—semitism issues, the guardian focusing on the staff that defied the gag order. the labour party next, as did most of it, and nondisclosure agreement about what they did. it is up in the air as to

whether or not they violated that by speaking with panorama and what they described as the labour leaderships essentially frustrating and sabotaging attempts to get rid of anti—semites in the labour ranks. the important thing about this is this is already caused many people to leave the labour party. there are lots of labour and peace do not agree withjeremy lots of labour and peace do not agree with jeremy corbyn on immigration policies but they can bring to bear it. but this for them is the thing that makes him say, can i really going to an election say yes, have to make this guy. it is absolutely, with the story, it is another story thatjust absolutely, with the story, it is another story that just confirms the doubts of a lot of people in that party having about their leader. we have had over the last few days, the story about the four ends that

surround jeremy that almost hold him prisoner. and the story about the big campaign leader and what was interesting, i only watched ten minutes of the programme because i had to come here. they were so young, idealistic, these are people that are not fighting on the front lines, they are people who joined with the very best of intentions and are horrified by the anti—semitism that they say is all throughout the party. if it can squeeze them in, the front of the guardian is also talking about same—sex relations and sing to the public is less tolerant of than. seems extraordinary this, if people were asked about this earlier, they would've been nervous about age, that very evocative thing

that prince william said the other day when he addressed an lgbt group singi day when he addressed an lgbt group sing i would just be worried about the problems of one of my children, i would worry about the problems they would have with the aggression and the persecution. and ifeel yes, they are right, but by the time your children grow up, that will be gone. but public seems to be less tolerant of same—sex relations and you would've thought now that people, being told about this, being discussed at schools and all of the country, that this is quite a shock. they always ask people how they feel about a range of issues from the death penalty, to mixed race relationships, to same—sex relationships, to same—sex relationships and marriage. the

slightly depressing point of this story is from 1987, when nine out of ten people said they have a problem with same—sex relationships, it has falle n with same—sex relationships, it has fallen every year to where it is now three and ten. the thing we do not know is whether or not is flatlining or statistical noise and maybe next year we will happily look back and say, it turns out it refers. however i think the way to find a slightly more troubling is we have seen this year, increasing homophobic attacks and whether or not it is ok for the schools to tell children that it is all right for them to be gay. and while this cultural change is not just a phenomenon like gravity, so many politicians have failed to leave, particularly for that school in birmingham, i think it does involve various people to say actually, i do not think it is ok to be gay. taking one photograph, we will talk about one, simply for time restraints. the from the telegraph,

this is the duchess of sussex and the duchess of cambridge with louis. lovely picture. what we needed after the drama shock or of the christening. there they both are with their little boys, we're seeing more of them not being shot through a sepia lens and a classic picture andi a sepia lens and a classic picture and i love the fact that we have the first at his, prince louis, only one—year—old and they have a lovely picture of the duchess of cambridge andi picture of the duchess of cambridge and i say, looking how you look about two months of having a baby andi about two months of having a baby and i said, in my case, probably about a year after having a baby. but she looks natural, she is wearing something flirty, very happy being held just so we needed. wearing something flirty, very happy being heldjust so we needed. on that uplifting note. thank you very much for this time. that's it for the papers this hour. eve and stephen will be

back at half past eleven for another look at the papers, and don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — 7 days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers — and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you eve and stephen goodbye. we have seen lively downpours developing across scotland and northern ireland this afternoon and evening and the more general area of rain spreading west to east overnight may give many gardeners a welcome drop of rain but precious little in southern counties of england. some thunder mixed and across scotland and northern england and a fairly humid and muggy night with temperatures twin 12 and 16 starting thursday morning. this is the chance to enter thursday, more extensive areas of low pressure across the uk

and where the cee—lo pressure that is where air is rising and that helps the showers and if you first of low pressure across the uk and where the see low pressure that is where air is rising and that helps the showers and if you first they will fade and most of the day if not all of it should be dry with a small risk of showers. north and east likely to see showers through the morning, many fading and most becoming dry and the bulk of the day but a few showers was popping up. dry mostly in northern ireland but showers to become lively and scotland. lively in scotland. another humid day in the sunshine, between 20 and 25. across scotland you can see vicious thunderstorms through the evening rush—hour and to thursday and that could have travel impact, risk of minorflooding. that moves to the north sea with the area of low pressure on friday with winds

following anticlockwise so more of a north—westerly breeze on friday sweeping away some humidity and still very pleasant and the sunshine with a fair bit seen, shimmer clouds here and they are particularly in the east and we are where winds meet heavier and longer lasting downpours in the afternoon. it will be fresher but temperatures still warm with most places in the low to mid—20s. a fresher start to saturday but with winds from the north—east where they meet down the spine of scotland and england where we could see some showers developing. not quite as heavy and couple of days and around the coast most should be dry and bright and still pleasant in the sunshine. more sunny spells on sunday, fewer showers around too. bye for now.

this is bbc news. the headlines at eleven. sir kim darroch said it was impossible to do his job after president trump's very public attacks on him. he had been frozen out by the white house and personally attacked on twitter by president trump. there are claims the resignation was triggered by borisjohnson refusing to back the diplomat, allegations mrjohnson denies. my my view is that it is wrong to drag civil servants into the public arena. he has basically thrown this

fantastic diplomat under the bus to serve his own personal
