onto the sun now, which has the headline "hey dude! don't make it bad." it picks up on the same moment from mrjohnson's speech, adding a pun on the beatles hit heyjude. the daily mirror strikes a less optimistic note, warning: "it's really not funny any more". its front page has a selection of pictures of the former mayor of london's less serious moments, including when he got stuck half way down a zip—wire during the london 2012 olympics. there's a warning on the ft from the international monetary fund. it reports that mrjohnson risks causing a global economic shock if he leads the uk out of the eu without a deal. the organisation said on tuesday that a no—deal brexit ranked alongside us trade policy as one of the chief threats to the world economy. the bbc online looks at the announcement by the us justice department, that there will be an investigation into leading online platforms —

like facebook, apple and amazon — examining whether they are unfairly restricting competition. and finally it's the front of the japan times which has this picture of an inflatable artwork depicting a swimmer to mark the one year countdown to the opening ceremony of the tokyo olympics 2020. with me is mark davies, ceo at the strategy consultancy, camberton. obviously wall—to—wall coverage about the days events with boris johnson about to enter downing street. the picture is striking. it sums up the character of him, doesn't it? an untucked shirt, tie to one side and a bizarre salute. he is so dishevelled. it is comedic to look at him and to think he is prime minister... he looks more like billy bunted. he looks like a schoolboy going off on the first day of prep

school. this is so boris all the way. this i am the dude piece is so boris as well. finding something that encapsulates what he is trying to achieve two, if you look at those four things and look at the detail beneath them and the likelihood that any of them can actually be done, there is a lot more to each of those phrases then comes across. deliver brexit... phrases then comes across. deliver brexit. .. that is phrases then comes across. deliver brexit... that is a complicated process to deliver brexit. we are in such a mess, whatever you think about what should happen, whether we could be going out with no deal or whether we shouldn't. it is such a mess constitutionally it is so difficult to we are in a situation where it was the last parliament the triggered article 50. in theory therefore we have to have the permission of the current parliament in order to transact on it and to leave with no deal. because no

previous parliament is allowed to bind a current one. it must go to parliament and their is not a parliamentary majority in favour of no brexit. it will be interesting to see how early in the 100 days that borisjohnson has that see how early in the 100 days that boris johnson has that that see how early in the 100 days that borisjohnson has that that question gets asked. i cannot believe that the speaker will not allow it to be asked by somebody. you are a member of the conservative party and you had a vote in the leadership contest and it was not for boris, was it, your vote? no, it was not. as that in your mind raise any doubts about, personally, your membership of the party? is it that extreme? the process is the process and everybody in the party got a vote. i think it shows that there is a good reason to bea shows that there is a good reason to be a member of political parties these days. people ask why you aren't a member but on both sides of the divide you get a say that you do

not otherwise get. it did not go the way i was hoping for but then it did not go the way i was hoping for in getting to the final two. i was supporting someone who backed out early on, rory stewart. what do you then make of people like philip hammond and alan duncan, senior ministers saying that they will not work ina ministers saying that they will not work in a cabinet under boris johnson? do you think that was an overreaction or do you think they have done the right thing? boris johnson has made a specific point which is to say that unless you are prepared to countenance no deal you cannot serve in my cabinet. what will be very interesting is if he gets towards october 31 and realises he will not get it through and calls an election... he might make it a coup where you he says you can only stand as a member of the conservative party for election if you are prepared to say no deal, if you are prepared to say no deal, if

you are prepared to say no deal, if you are prepared to push through no deal. then there would be a swathes of people who would have to stand on that ticket who do not necessarily believe it is the right thing to do. it is one thing to say you will not sit in the cabinet and to take the time out on the back bench and wait until the position changes which, it will do in due course and we will move on to other topics. but if you are not actually there in parliament, obviously the position is completely different. that is a situation which is potentially coming down the line. it comes up in one of the pieces we will discuss shortly. the contrast, we have seen the front page of the sun but the contrast on the front page of the daily miller —— mirror, a foretaste of the pressure that inevitably, once the honeymoon period is over, mrjohnson will feel as his collea g u es mrjohnson will feel as his colleagues in parliament and the rest of the nation start to want to see progress. obviously there are two sides, there is a side to boris

that everyone knows, the comic side. and when he tried to be serious as foreign secretary did not work out —— for him. and in the speech he made, he went for the comic side. it will be interesting to see what he does today on the steps of downing street. the trouble is that the office of prime minister does not lend itself to comedy and that is the problem we have got. we have someone the problem we have got. we have someone who thrives when he is not being serious but he is doing a seriousjob. and when being serious but he is doing a serious job. and when the being serious but he is doing a seriousjob. and when the rubber hits the road, he is not in a situation where he can skirt over the detail and passed things off with a laugh and a joke. and as you say that is being underlined by this front—page article on the ft. a stark warning from the imf about this idea that borisjohnson is open to the possibility of britain leaving without a deal if it comes to that. the most interesting

paragraph in this, the warning is about the economy and we have heard those before. they have been dismissed, michael gove dismissed this sort of thing we spoke about hearing it up from experts. but the paragraph that talks about the possibility of a snap election in august says it would potentially be borisjohnson seeking a mandate, accompanied by a nonaggression pact with the brexit party. without that, if he were to go to the country with our brexit solved in the conservative party is in trouble. polling that came out yesterday showed that 22% of people would go for the brexit party in the event the brexit was yet to be sold and only 18% for the conservative party. to enter an election as is suggested here without having dealt with the brexit issue will be very, very dangerous for him to do although i should say that danny finkelstein in the times says that is what he ought

to do. he should put everything on one number and see what comes out. leaving boris johnson for one one number and see what comes out. leaving borisjohnson for one moment and there will be plenty more in the hours and days ahead. this technology story from the bbc online. the power of technology giants to be probed in the us. donald trump and his administration express frustration with your‘s moves to put in check the power of these tech giants. that is exactly why it is so interesting. i did not expect this from the us, the story broke late last night. the trouble with these businesses is that they naturally lend themselves to a monopoly. the reason that facebook is as attractive as it is is because everybody is on it. google does well because it has all the answers. so the businesses naturally do exactly what the department ofjustice says it will probe. the question is whether they end up not being able

to acquire things like, for example, facebook purchasing instagram, whether they will have to divest themselves of that kind of investment and just stick to their knitting, as it were, what they were originally founded to do. thank you very much for that and for going through those stories with us. read more about the technology on the bbc news website, just go to bbc .com/ news or if you are out and about or on break at work, having a glance, you can find it on the bbc news app as well. don't forget, you can reach me on most of the team here on social media. stay with us, plenty more to come. coverage of the momentous events happening in downing street is the new prime minister for the downing street is the new prime ministerfor the uk downing street is the new prime minister for the uk takes office downing street is the new prime ministerfor the uk takes office in the next few hours. we will have full coverage of that. hello. temperatures have been soaring

across the uk to record—breaking levels in some spots. on tuesday a new record for maison saint louis injersey. a newjuly record, that is, of 35.7 degrees celsius. don't be too surprised if we do not see some further records being broken before this hot spell is out. the peak is anticipated on thursday and some spots could reach 37 degrees. that will be a new ukjuly record. we start on wednesday with plenty of humidity around and widespread thunderstorms across the northern half of the uk. potentially big hail and gusty wind and a lot of lightning and thunder. losing their intensity as they drift across scotla nd intensity as they drift across scotland through the morning. clear from the northern isles in the afternoon. a bit more of a south—westerly flow today so that will take the temperature down a little towards the west of the uk but still some hotspots in the east, facing highs of 32 or 33 degrees.

through the evening and overnight, not a lot changes but notices some business going on out here towards the western area of low pressure trying to get closer. what that will do is increase the southerly flow for thursday. thursday morning, again, a hot affairafter for thursday. thursday morning, again, a hot affair after an uncomfortable night. it is all to do with the wind direction, bringing the extreme heat on thursday, that southerly wind tapping in to heat from the continent. benelux and germany are facing record temperatures. from the west this front could spark a few showers ahead of it. and eastern areas as the sun beats down we anticipate an 80% chance of the july the sun beats down we anticipate an 80% chance of thejuly record being tumbled somewhere in the south—east of england, probably favouring somewhere in the greater london area or parts of kent. the current record is 36.7 and that was set at heathrow onjuly one 2015. if it is getting

too much for you there is hope for the end of the week. the low brings in its influence overnight thursday into friday. nothing particularly dramatic in the way of rainfall for many areas but fresher air arriving. we return to average temperatures in belfast and cardiff. in the weekend, a fresh feeling for all and the potential for heavy rain in places.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. we're in westminster, where later today borisjohnson will become our new prime minister. has it sunk in yet? last night he celebrated his decisive victory against rival jeremy hunt, with conservative party members. this morning the attention moves to who will be joining him at his top table. supporters say he'll be creating a cabinet for "modern britain". good morning from manchester city
