hello and welcome to bbc news. the spanish government has insisted the country is safe for tourists. it follows the uk's decision to ask anyone returning from spain to quarantine for two weeks. there's been a sharp increase in spanish coronavirus infections, with nearly a thousand new cases in the last two days. the new ruling means the travel plans of thousands could be thrown into chaos. paul hawkins reports. for the british holiday—makers amongst the crowds in catalonia this, the great escape into the sun and warm waters following long months of lockdown back home. but it's no longer looking like such a dream break because two weeks‘ quarantine now awaits when they return to the uk. we've known in theory that countries could lock down, that countries could go back

on this corridor list of not being able to visit without quarantine, but lots of people that i've been with here in benidorm thought that it was incredibly safe, haven't felt endangered and were quite shocked at the idea at this two weeks of quarantine when we get back. i'm kind of fortunate, i'm a teacher, so... there are plans that i had that i'll have to rearrange for two weeks, but my wife is with me. she works in the city and she's going to have to quarantine, and that will impact her, because she had been due to go into the office over the next couple of weeks, so she can't do that any more. but the uk government has imposed the quarantine because of sharp increases in infections in catalonia, aragon and navarre, as well as other places. for that reason, the advice as of now from the foreign and commonwealth office is that all but essential travel to mainland spain should be avoided. tens of thousands of british tourists have booked holidays in spain. many are trying to work out

what to do now while others have already given up hope. i'm a key worker and james is working full—time, so we couldn't get back and then have two weeks straight off work. that's not possible, so although we could go on the holiday because we've booked holidays, we can't come back and then stay in the house for two weeks. thatjust wouldn't be possible, so we can't then go on holiday because we can't come back and quarantine for two weeks. some flights from uk to spain have already been cancelled. what was hoped to be a big increase in tourism in the coming weeks now looks doomed. this is going to be absolutely devastating. there are tens of thousands of people who are booked to travel to spain tomorrow and in the next few days. effectively, nobody is going to be going on package holidays, but families up and down britain are going to be faced with this awful choice — "we're not going to get money back from the airlines because we haven't got a package holiday — what do we do?"

and, of course, you've got hundreds of thousands of people, some of whom flew out today, who are now facing the prospect of having to self—isolate for two weeks when they get home. what happens now could happen in other countries in the coming weeks. the british government determined to prevent coronavirus infections being brought into the uk and quarantine being an effective way to achieve that. and our reporter, paul hawkins, is with me now. what is the latest you have for us? the spanish government says it respects the uk's decision but stresses the situation is under control. the government of the canary islands says it is in talks to get itself removed from the bands and stressing it has one of the lowest incidences of covid—i9 in europe. the travel industry is decimated by this and they are not happy. they are not happy with the notice given, late on saturday night with a midnight deadline and they are not happy with the fact that

this man applies to all of spain and notjust certain regions to british airways and easyj et say regions to british airways and easyjet say they are disappointed but continue to operate flights. the biggest tour operator says it has cancelled flights to spain. another council has called it disastrous for the travel and tourism industry and quarantine does nothing to help restore consumer confidence to but the uk government says they had to act immediately because public health is their priority. it is a fast developing situation in spain and the advice, by the way, quarantine measures apply to those returning from mainland spain, the biliary islands in the canary islands however the foreign office advises against non—essential travel. that has ramifications for travel insurance. but that only applies to mainland spain. the travel insurance may cover you if you are coming back from the islands. check with your

travel operator and employer as well whether, when you return from spain, whether you will be able to work from home and if you can't can you take holiday, can you afford to have it unpaid? a lot of questions for a lot of travellers. lets speak to lee sparrow in the uk who has a holiday booked with his girlfriend. thank you for your time full what are you planning to do? i have no idea. the government gave such short notice and, plus, it is so hard to contact the tourist company that i am with because there are so many that i am with because there are so many people trying to contact them and no—one is getting through. myself and my partner, we are key workers and we have worked all the way through the pandemic and we thought that we deserved a break addict we saved for it

islands, canary islands, they have the lowest cases in the world and for the government to block everywhere is just ridiculous. and i wanted... the timing, there was not a lot of notice and i wonder what you make of that. to be honest i think it is silly to normally you would get something like 24 hours notice all they would say, you know, next week or something but to do it in a few hours... i have no words. do you think your employers will be sympathetic? no. 0k. can you understand, obviously we all have our own part to play in this pandemic. can you understand the logic of what the government is trying to do here? i can understand part of the logic but i was under the impression that the government

was going to try and localise lockdowns so i would have presumed the government would have thought ahead for other countries as well, considering that they opened the borders for travel. the main out rake is in mainland spain so i would have thought they would have done a local lockdown and said you cannot go to the mainland but you can go to the canary islands, balearic islands because they have next to no cases. we will leave it there. thank you for your time. let's get some of the day's other news. the first hurricane of the atlantic season has reached land in southern texas. hurricane hanna, with wind speeds of around 120 kilometres per hour, could bring storm surges of up to five feet. there have been demonstrations in russia for the third weekend ina row in russia for the third weekend in a row in support of the sacked governor of a far east

city. tens of thousands of people took part. a memorial service for the american civil rights iconjohn lewis is under way in his hometown of troy, alabama. he died last week of pancreatic cancer at the age of 80. mr lewis remained atlanta's democratic congress member for 33 years. india has recorded nearly 100,000 new cases of coronavirus in just two days, taking the total number of people infected to over 1.3 million. that means that india now has the third highest number of coronavirus cases in the world. reged ahmad reports. india's coronavirus case numbers have been going up steadily. it now has more than 1 million registered infections, the third—highest case numbers in the world. some days have seen record surges. the chief minister of the state of madhya pradesh has announced he is one of those new cases. taken to hospital in a motorcade, he posted on twitter that he had been

admitted after testing positive, but was healthy, and urged people to wear masks and follow social distancing rules. india has been trying to deal with its spike in case numbers by implementing sporadic local lock—downs in some areas. it initially had a wider, strict lockdown, but the devastating economic and human cost forced it to ease restrictions. as it reopened and increased testing, case numbers surged. the reality of the spread of covid—19 hit home when a family described as "bollywood royalty" tested positive. aishwarya rai bachchan, her daughter and husband, along with her father—in—law — both men also famous — were taken to hospital. the news sent shock waves around the country. but india's death toll has remained relatively low compared to its case numbers. the country is reporting

a high recovery rate. some of it has been put down to under reporting of deaths, but it doesn't explain the whole picture. it has experts perplexed, although they do warn the worst is yet to come. reged ahmad, bbc news. let's have a look now at the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic now. millions of american workers are at risk of losing vital unemployment benefits unless congress acts to extend the legislation. the benefits programme — known as the cares act — was designed to help those suddenly unemployed due to coronavirus. however that support officially ends this coming friday, the 31st ofjuly, with final payments sent out this weekend. prior to the bill, the average american claiming unemployment support received $383 a week. the bill gave each individual an extra $600 a week, on top of what they already received. the bill also extended support to those who would otherwise not be covered by normal benefits. an estimated 32 million americans will lose out when that support expires.

world—leading economist jeffrey sachs from columbia university is the new chair of the lancet covid—19 commission, and hejoins me now from new york city. thank you very much for your time. we have been hearing over the last few days from the trump administration that they wa nt to trump administration that they want to extend these unemployment benefits so potentially cause for damir dzumhur. talk this through the consequences if the money does not come through to we are in an extraordinary crisis in the united states because the control of the pandemic, from the federal level, has been basically non—existent so the us is the country with the absolute surging pandemic. because of that, the economy is not recovering and because of that, people need help. in fa ct,

that, people need help. in fact, the whole economy is really in another significant downturn as the pandemic surges. the republican party was not ready for this. donald trump in his delusional way thought this was all going to be gone by now. was the gameplan although there was no real strategy of control. and 110w real strategy of control. and now they are scrambling to come up now they are scrambling to come up with something. they are concerned that if they are to lowly generous that people won't go back to work and they wa nt to won't go back to work and they want to show the numbers of people going back to work. in the end they have to extend these benefits to this is certainly the case. it is not just money in people's pockets so just money in people's pockets so people can pay rent and bills and things like that, there is also a wider impact on consumption, isn't there? right 110w consumption, isn't there? right now unemployment is at double—digit levels, we don't know exactly the numbers because the measurement has

been very difficult and in some ways flawed but certainly the unemployment rate and the actuality is somewhere around 1596 actuality is somewhere around 15% of the labour force to there are 25 or 30 million people that depend on benefits right now in order to be able to subsist. and the economy is not going to get better anytime $0011 not going to get better anytime soon given the flareup, the massive flareup of more than 70,000 new cases per day. this isa 70,000 new cases per day. this is a very serious matter, obviously, every country in the world that fails to control the pandemic, it basically faces the same reality to the economy cannot recover, income is lost and people are pushed into desperation and destitution evenin desperation and destitution even in wealthy countries that consider the poor countries where it is even more dramatic. in orderfor this

where it is even more dramatic. in order for this support to be extended we need congress to pass a law so both houses need to agree. the president needs to agree. the president needs to sign it but it is an election year and we are less than 100 days from the election. how his party politics playing a role in this? the republican party, thatis this? the republican party, that is the white house and the senate was simply not prepared and that is why there is no effective response. of course, trump has been absolutely the worst imaginable leader in all of this and leader is not even the word one would use. has been no federal response. and one of the delays is that the democrats in the lower house and in the house of incentives have been calling for funding, for testing and for public health measures and the republicans, shockingly, have been fighting against that. trumps idea is, i think, been fighting against that. trumps idea is, ithink, if been fighting against that.

trumps idea is, i think, if you do not test then it goes away 01’ do not test then it goes away or you do not hear about it. it is absolutely bizarre and there is absolutely bizarre and there is so many layers of difficulty right now but it all comes back to the fact that trump is com pletely to the fact that trump is completely irresponsible and also desperate to try and find also desperate to try and find a path to re— election. between the two of those, everything in the two of those, everything in the united states politics is confused right now. we will have to leave it there. i'm sure the president and the republican party would disagree with that characterisation but we have to leave it there. this is bbc news. the headlines: travellers returning to the uk from spain will have to self—isolate for two weeks as the country is removed from the travel corridors exemption list because of covid—19. india records nearly a hundred thousand new cases of covid—19 in two days.

a chief minister is one of those testing positive. poland is taking the first steps to withdraw from a european treaty aimed at preventing violence against women. that's because, according to the country's justice minister, the treaty undermines what he describes as the traditional family model. on friday thousands of people, mostly women, protested in cities across poland against the government's decision. from warsaw, adam easton, reports. poland's justice minister said the government's opposition to the convention is "ideological". "it does not oppose its aim to combat violence against women." mr ziobro said the convention wants to force schoolchildren to learn about gender, "it promotes lgbt issues," he said, and "unfairly blames religion for causing domestic violence." translation: in this area of combating violence against women, there is our agreement and full

acceptance of the provisions of the convention, but there are also provisions of an ideological nature in this convention which we do not accept and which we consider harmful. poland doesn't need this convention, he said, because polish law is sufficient to prevent violence against women. on friday, thousands of people — mostly women — demonstrated against the government's plan in cities across the country. in warsaw, people protested outside the offices of a conservative legal group that opposes the convention. many held placards saying "women's strike", a movement that successfully blocked the group's plan to introduce a total ban on abortion several years ago. translation: yes, i know people who have experienced domestic violence. even i've experienced it in some form, but i only recently realised this because domestic violence is not always physical or sexual. so, yes, i do know victims of abuse. i think we need a discussion about domestic abuse, but not like this, going out

on the street and yelling. we need to actually discuss what we can do about it. many countries in this region have not ratified the convention. slovakia and bulgaria rejected it over fears it undermines traditionalfamilies. the authors of the convention, the human rights watchdog the council of europe, say conservative and religious groups are spreading false narratives. "it does not seek to impose a certain lifestyle on people," they say, "nor does it include a definition of a family." adam easton, bbc news, warsaw. the veteran american television presenter regis philbin has died at the age of 88. mr philbin was the most prolific presenter in the history of american tv, spending more hours in front of the camera than any other television personality. he's best known for hosting the us version of ‘who wants to be a millionaire?‘ and the long—running morning show ‘live with regis and kathie lee', which later became ‘live with regis and kelly‘.

tanya hart is host of hollywood live with tanya hart on american urban radio network and shejoins me from los angeles. thank you for your time, thank you forjoining us. such a long and a comp list career. how did he stay relevant to different generations over the years? first of all, i have do my condolences go out to joy and the family. but wow, what a quy- the family. but wow, what a guy. he had that smile and personality that just eclipsed everything. you know, he actually started his career parking cars for the local tv station here in los angeles, this is where he started. 1955, i believe, and he went on again, as you said, to log the most hours every in the guinness world book of records of television presenter and television host was that he had the longest. and i don‘t think anyone has beaten him since then. we still have to catch up to regis philbin. but he was just a personality. he also created, kind of a style that many of us who have come along

since him have picked up on. and it was a star where he would interview people, is a good listener. and he taught everybody you have to be a good listener. and that way came very spontaneously, at least it seemed that way, when you asking questions. which is what he did. i had the pleasure of meeting him for the first time, believe it or not, at a christmas party. merv and regis, the two of them for american television, it doesn‘t get any better than that. and i have to tell you, i was absolutely in order. this was when i first came to los angeles, it‘s been a long, long time now. but merv was my christmas parties were legendary, and that‘s where i first met regis, and wow. i just — the other thing about him as he looked really good. he enjoyed celebrating his 50th wedding anniversary in march or april, just a couple of months

ago, and he was out and about before that and he looked great. somebody his age, i honestly didn‘t know how old he was, but he looked really, really good. what a loss. i‘m so really good. what a loss. i‘m so sorry really good. what a loss. i‘m so sorry for everybody. i'm sorry to interrupt. just reading some of the quotes from interviews he gave over the yea rs. interviews he gave over the years. he was quite candid about basically being a bit unhappy, that he didn‘t make the big time until later in his career. right. he did say that. i think it‘s — you know, that‘s because — i always thought of him as big—time, honestly, because i grew watching him on tv and following that path. but because he came along with guys like — he started out on the julie bishop show, and he came along with guys like merv griffin, and the guys who really did that daytime tv really did that daytime tv really well. but the one thing about regis philbin, he was ahead of his time. he was one of the first daytime talk hosts to add a female, kathey lette.

they took it in to the 21st century, would you have to give him credit for that —— kathie lee. do you think we will see anyone else like him? damon celebrity seems so short—lived 110w. celebrity seems so short—lived now. popularity for a short period of time —— fame and celebrity. i think his time on television was actually 60 plus yea rs, television was actually 60 plus years, something like that know, nobody is going to last that long these days. television may not last that long at this point! but, no, these guys, they came along at a time when television was in its infancy, really. and they brought it into what we call the golden era of television, and now we have gone into the other digital phase of the business. but, no, they don‘t really make people like that anymore. god bless him. indeed. and i suppose the other thing,

reading about him, you get the sense that he wasn‘t always this kind of polished and sort of squeaky clean. he would talk about really mundane petty annoyances, that stuff that kind of driver sold mad day—to—day committee wasn‘t complaining about the size of his swimming pool, was he? exactly. see, not what i‘m saying. he created a style of many people successful since then have picked up on. the everyman style of self—effacing, and i do believe idid self—effacing, and i do believe i did this to myself, kind of thing. and the audience loves that. an audience loves for any tv personality or presented to be like them and that‘s what regis philbin was. he wasn‘t really, but everyone thought he was! close enough, perhaps. tanya hart, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. bank you. take care. —— thank you.

and isolated —— the foreign ministry saying. more@bbc.com/news. thank you for watching. hello. after a saturday which brought us some torrential downpours, some thunderstorms, even a tornado, sunday is looking a little bit quieter by comparison. a lot more in the way of sunshine around for many of you. some will stay dry, but there‘ll still be a scattering of showers to hide from every now and again. and one or two showers have continued through the night into the first thing in the morning. a fresher feel, as well, but still temperatures in double figures. and with the sunshine on your back across england and wales, that won‘t feel too bad in particular. plenty of dry, bright weather here to begin with. a few isolated showers in the west in the morning, developing more widely into the afternoon. showery morning followed by a largely sunny afternoon for northern ireland,

southern and eastern scotland. but more persistent rain will be arriving into the hebrides later on, and it‘s here where winds will strengthen to gale—force. elsewhere, though, more of a breeze around compared with what we saw through saturday. temperatures will have dropped, but don‘t forget — with a bit more sunshine and strong july sunshine on your back at that, it shouldn‘t feel too bad, around 17—23 degrees. coolest of all, though, in the north—west of scotland, where the strong winds, heavy rain will continue into the first part of the night. after a dry start to the night elsewhere, though, cloud and rain will develop in england and wales to take us into the monday will develop in england and wales to take us into the monday morning rush—hour. temperatures climbing again. could be down to single figures, though, to start the day across parts of scotland and northern ireland. so, a cool start to the week here. but here‘s the chart that shows what‘s happening through sunday night into monday. outbreaks of rain comes from this weather system. now, a little bit of uncertainty how close that‘ll get to northern ireland and southern scotland. it does look like we‘ll see some wet weather for a time, but that should ease for northern ireland later. heaviest of the rain, most persistent of the rain in northern and western parts of england, as well as across wales. the rain fairly showery towards the south—east, and it‘s across the south

and east where we see the strongest of the winds, touching gale—force for one or two. temperatures, well down again on we‘ll see on sunday. and given the fact there‘ll be cloud and rain for many, too, it is going to feel distinctly cool. and a cooler feel as we go into the middle part of the week. that weather system clears out during monday night. tuesday allows a north—westerly flow to develop, coming all the way from the north atlantic. bringing a few showers across northern and western areas. varying amounts of cloud, driest and brightest further south and east you are, but when you‘re out of the sunshine, a noticeable chill. temperatures for many sitting in the teens throughout. that cooler feel continues into wednesday, too. we could see rain return to scotland and northern ireland through thursday and friday. but further south and east, could we see the return of some summer warmth with temperatures approaching 30 degrees?
