others making the same mistakes. nesta mcgregor, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's darren bett here is chris fox. thank you. more of this hot and humid weather to come, temperatures easing towards the end of the week but with sunshine, we get some big, thundery dampers. not many of them today but where they do occur, they could bring localised flash flooding, that's true over the next few days from these very big storms that will be around. this afternoon, not many showers to come, lots of dry weather, the view that echoing across wales, the midlands, southern england could be torrential in nature and some of the showers in eastern scotland potentially slow—moving. temperatures well up into the 30s, 36 degrees in the south—east, it will be a very hot and humid kind of day and overnight, we are looking up further

thunderstorms purging north—east. lots of thunder and lightning mixed in with these, another uncomfortable and one night for sleeping. these are the temperatures at 11pm, and one night for sleeping. these are the temperatures at "pm, you can see still 27 degrees in london, 24 can see still 27 degrees in london, 2a and birmingham, 19 in glasgow. tomorrow, the first batch of storms pushed northwards, idle scotland through the morning. then it's trite for a through the morning. then it's trite fora time, through the morning. then it's trite for a time, sunshine, through the morning. then it's trite fora time, sunshine, murky through the morning. then it's trite for a time, sunshine, murky around the coast but into the afternoon, big thunderstorms breaking out across wales and england and this time, much more widespread so we could see some impact tomorrow from really heavy storms, some localised flash flooding and it's another day of extreme humidity, temperatures into the 30s in the hotspots. ridge of high pressure building across the north on thursday, largely try but lots of cloud. some brighter spells in the north—west. at the same time we see thundery showers trapped across england and wales, some of them will be torrential in nature,

highest temperatures easing a few degrees but continuing to feel hot and humid on friday, a lot of cloud with some thunderstorms are circulating across england and wales. brighter weather in western scotland, northern ireland, fresher air across the north of the uk filtering into northern england but really, for the rest of england and wales, it will continue to feel humid, even if the temperatures are a few degrees lower, still feeling pretty oppressive. that pattern continuing into the weekend. low pressure around , continuing into the weekend. low pressure around, mainly cloudy, rain oi’ pressure around, mainly cloudy, rain or showers for england and wales, continuing humid field to the weather, the best of any sunshine and brightness across more north—western areas of the uk this weekend. that's the latest weather, watch out for the potentially thundery dampers. that is it. chris, thank you. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are.

good afternoon. it's 1:30pm and here's your latest sports news... the scottish first minister nicola sturgeon says celtic and aberdeen‘s matches are to be called off this week, with talks continuing this afternoon about whether the football season will be suspended. it comes after celtic player boli bolingoli flew to spain without the club knowing, failed to quarantine on his return, then played in a league match on sunday. he and his team mates since tested negative for covid, twice, and he's apologised. it comes days after eight aberdeen players broke rules by gathering in a bar after a match — which led to two testing positive. i don't want to the season to be in jeopardy, for the reasons i have just set out. i don't want people who are not responsible for this to pay the price, but we have to be very clear that this situation is

not acceptable, so we will set out the conclusion of those talks hopefully later today i think is a minimum. you should not be expecting to see aberdeen or celtic play over the course of the coming week, and we will set out conclusions beyond that, but putting this as clearly as ican in that, but putting this as clearly as i can in language that the football world will understand, consider today the yellow card. the next time it will be the next card because you will leave us with absolutely no choice. well, in a statement celtic say they unreservedly condemn and apologise for their player boli bolingoli's behaviour.. adding that it's "difficult to imagine a more irresponsible action in current circumstances and we find it beyond explanation" all club staff and players have tested negative, twice, since the incident but they added "while this comes as a relief to all concerned, it in no way diminishes the seriousness or stupidity of the player's actions."

"it is difficult to imagine a more irresponsible action in current meanwhile, in their biosecure bubble in germany, wolves are preparing for their europa league semi final tonight. standing in their way are the five—time champions sevilla. the prize if they get through is an all—english tie against manchester united for a place in the final. regardless of tonight's result though — head coach nuno espirito santo says he's delighted with how far the club's come, considering they were playing in the championship just over two over two years ago... i'm very, very proud, very, very proud of how we did things and now i think we can say that we have our own identity. so it is based on strong foundations of respect and hard work. so this is what we want to show, a good team, with identity and committed to the challenge. for the first time since 2008, the women's community shield will return — and take place immediately before the men's final at wembley on august the 29th.

it'll be the first match since the season was cut short in february — and be between the women's super league winners chelsea and fa cup holders manchester city. the league season will start the following saturday. britain's number one women's tennis playerjo konta says she was suffering from heart palpitations and felt light—headed in a match — as her us open preparations took a setback. konta — who's at the bottom of your screen — was beaten by in straight sets by world number 48 marie bouzkova at the lexington 0pen — a warm up event for the grand slam which starts at the end of the month. british number two heather watson also lost to american jennifer brady. it's a big day for five—time winner ronnie 0'sullivan and defending championjudd trump — who both trail in their quarter

final matches that get under way shortly at the world snooker championships. three—time winner mark selby is fairing a bit better however... he's through to the semi's after beating 2010 winner neil robertson 13—7 and plays 0'sullivan or mark williams next. the snooker continues live across the bbc this afternoon. that's all the sport for now. a reminder you can find commentary and live updates from all five matches in county cricket's bob willis trophy on the website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport now, nicola sturgeon has described schools returning today as a "major milestone" in the fight against coronavirus in scotland. speaking at the government's daily briefing, she said that parents might be tempted to return to workplaces as their children go back to school but she encouraged them to continue to work from home. i know today's milestone, while it will undoubtedly cause some anxiety for children and young people, parents and teachers, it is nevertheless a really welcome moment because we know the harm that has been and will continue to be

done to young people's education and well—being the longer they are out of school. and today's return really has been made possible by the progress all of us have made in suppressing the virus, but we know from all sorts of evidence here at home and elsewhere across the uk and across europe that that progress remains fragile, we all really need to continue to be vigilant and cautious. the immigration minister, chris philp, has been meeting his french counterpart in paris — to discuss how to reduce the number of migrants crossing the english channel in small boats. since thursday, more than 600 people have been intercepted. the government has said it wants to work with the french authorities to make the route "unviable". mr philp has been speaking to

journalists in the past half hour. we had a very constructive meeting with our french colleagues in paris this morning. we are reaffirming our shared commitment to ensure that the suite across the channel remains unviable. it is caused by ruthless criminal gangs, puts lives at risk and is totally unnecessary. we have devised a new objection or pan with the objective in mind are potentially cutting the sweet and we will be working at pace in the coming weeks to make that plan of a reality. a newly appointed kaunda time channel flight commander with me today will be returning to france early next week to continue those discussions. i am also delighted that the french made a commitment to appoint their own commanders to take responsibility in this area, which isa responsibility in this area, which is a very important step forward. what other concrete commitments did the french make? what came out of this meeting? and what are you

satisfied that they are doing everything they can to intercept migrants before they leave and shows? french authorities are doing a good deal of work and have intercepted well over a thousand people this year but the sheer numbers crossing the channel are com pletely numbers crossing the channel are completely unacceptable, and a cce pta ble completely unacceptable, and acceptable to the french government and unacceptable to the uk government, so it is quite clear that more needs to be done and that is exactly what this new comprehensive action plan that we are working on will aim to do, and if we can make this route unviable, which we are determined to do, then migrants will have no reason at all to come to france in the first place. in the action plan that you? i'm not going to comment on the operational details at this time. there were a number of measures, some of which are new and under discussion, and as they say dana manny will be working on those with his french counterpart including a visit to france which is going to happen next week. funds requested to have more money for border patrols and if yes has the uk

agreed and how much? we are still in the process of developing and finalising the operational plan so particular financial commitments. it would be early and be permitted to make this kind of commitment at this stage but we accept that this is a shared problem and if they share plan could be agreed we would obviously be prepared to support that. we'd be prepared to support that. we'd be prepared to support that in all the way is necessary to make it a success. needs to be more flexible is what has been coming out of the uk this morning. what exactly needs to be changed about those regulations? well, the dublin regulations do have a number of constraints in them which means returning people who should be that heard a little bit harder than we like. come the ist of january we will be outsiders dublin regulations in the united kingdom can take a fresh approach but we are not going to wait until the ist of january, we are committed to taking action now to make this route, facilitated by

dangerous criminals, completely unviable and that is an object french government share. funds allow britishness naval vessels into its territorial waters which of course is going to be necessary... of course we're going to respect the of other countries in international law but we are looking at all the other options that are necessary to make sure that this was completely cut down. i'm not going to discuss the operational details, but as i say we will always respect international law and the severity of other countries. one last question about taking back control. it is better not asking fans to do some of its controlling from by this plan? —— is britain not asking france to do some of its controlling for us by this plan? policing borders as i was a cross—country affairand any two borders as i was a cross—country affair and any two countries whether they are in the eu are not need to work together to police those borders and it isn't exactly that spirit that france and germany,

france and the united kingdom, are working together to ensure that this bodyis working together to ensure that this body is properly policed. you want to do that last bit again because i got the germany bit wrong? share, i can ask the question again. brexit is supposed to be about control, isn't this asking france to do some of its hard work for it? the united kingdom today were neither absolute commitment to make sure that this rate is properly policed and there it is ended. that is what any two countries would be regardless of whether or not they are in the european union. but as the immigration minister talking about those talks with french officials. let's ta ke those talks with french officials. let's take you back to that news that new zealand has announced that it's is locally transmitted coronavirus infections in more than 100 days. prompting the prime minister to issue a stay—at—home lockdown order for the country's largest city. jacinda ardern said four cases had been detected in a single family in auckland from an unknown source. at a news conference she gave

details about what this will mean in line with our precautionary approach, we will be asking aucklanders to take swift action with us. as of 12 noon tomorrow, wednesday, august 12, we will be moving auckland to level three restrictions for a period of three days. that is until midnight on friday. these three days will give us time to assess the situation, gather information, make sure we have widespread contact tracing so we can find out more about how this case arose and make decisions on how to respond to it once we have further information. let me set out what that means for people in auckland and the rest of new zealand. we are asking people in auckland to stay home to stop the spread.

the headlines on bbc news... the number of people in work in the uk fell by the largest amount in over a decade between april and june. scotland's education secretary will explain how he'll address student worries — after many received grades lower than expected, in exams which couldn't be taken president putin says that russia has developed the world's ‘first‘ covid—19 vaccine — and says his own daughter has already taken it. face coverings are now compulsory in most indoor public spaces, but there are exemptions for some people from wearing them, including young children, people with disabilities or those with breathing difficulties. some charities, however, are concerned about an increase in abuse and challenging behaviour towards people who don't cover their faces. fiona lamdin has more.

this exchange was filmed on a train, when a passenger challenged these two sisters travelling together. 0ne sister temporarily lifted her facemask, so her sister, who is deaf—blind, could read her lips. and these sisters aren't alone. paul has borderline personality disorder. he says he's faced abuse for not wearing a mask on a tram. a gentleman literally was just like, why aren't you wearing a mask? and i told him and i explained to him, and his simple response was, well, if you're not wearing a mask, you shouldn't be allowed out. and that made me feel extraordinarily vulnerable. this exchange upset him so much, he didn't leave the house for four days. so, what are the rules? because some of us are exempt.

for example, young children under the age of 11, those with a physical or mental illness, if wearing a mask will cause severe distress, and if you're travelling with someone who relies on lip—reading to communicate. are you aware that some people don't need to wear masks? now that you say that, i had heard of that, but i don't think about that in the moment. so, no, i guess i don't think about that when i'm making judgments about people. no, i wasn't aware of that. i wasn't aware of that at all. i've seen it advertised that people have breathing difficulties or anything where their health is going to be made worse by wearing a mask, then they're exempt. i am an asthmatic, so i might be on the verge of not having to wear one, but where i can, i will. but mask wearing is also a huge problem for those with hidden disabilities when out shopping.

which one did you get there? marianne's son max has sensory processing disorder. he can't tolerate a face—mask over his face because of the feeling on his ears or having something over his nose or over his mouth. he can't wear one, he just can't. hejust panics. he's ten, so legally he doesn't need to wear one, but marianne said when the family visited their local apple store, they were told children over five must wear masks. she said max wasn't allowed inside. it made us feel like people were looking at us and they were judging us. it was a really uncomfortable experience because we want to go out, just like everybody else. apple have told us they adhere to government guidelines and children under 11 don't need to wear masks. they're working hard to keep their customers and staff safe. with face coverings now becoming part of everyday life, it makes the thought of going out for those who've already faced abuse even harder than it was before.

fiona lamdin, bbc news. lebanon's outgoing prime minister has lashed out at what he calls the "endemic corruption" in his country that led to the catastrophic explosion in beirut. announcing his resignation, hassan diab said he would follow the will of the people in holding those responsible to account. paul hawkins reports... fireworks and tear gas in beirut. it sums up lebanon at the moment. 0n the one hand there is joy that the country's government has resigned. translation: today, we follow the will of the people to hold accountable those responsible for this disaster that has been hiding for seven years and their desire for change from the corrupt destructive state, the state of brokerages and theft, to the state of law and justice and transparency, to a country that respects its people.

but also fear about what the future may bring. it is important that the credible and transparent investigation determines the cause of the explosion and bring about the accountability demanded by the lebanese people. it is also important that reforms be implemented, so as to address the needs of the lebanese people for the longer term. but what are those reforms? some believe that lebanon's political system is part of the problem. called a confessional system, it was designed so people from different religious communities get an equal and fair say in how the country is run. the president must be a maronite christian, the parliamentary speaker a shia muslim. the prime minister, who has just resigned, must be a sunni muslim. while half of parliament seats must be christian, with the other half muslim or druze. critics say the system promotes sectarian interests and patronage, in other words it's not

what you know, but who you know. this is a system that has been now in place for decades. there are a lot of interests at stake here. and people and groups are going to defend these interests and not going to give up the power that they have had for decades. definitely a new government would be in place, who knows when? it usually takes months for the ruling elites to come together. so maybe the humanitarian disaster that unfolded last week and the economic crisis that has been going on since october, might maybe you know prove to be a catalyst for a quick formation of the government, though i don't think the government will be you know that much different from the one that hasjust resigned. basically powerless and unable to make decisions. there is a running joke in lebanon that even without a government, you wouldn't notice much difference in people's lives. but the longer the status quo lasts, the thinner the joke gets.

the devastating blast has left many people in beirut trying to rebuild their lives. one of them is rola stephan, a mother of five. rola has been out on the streets of beirut to assess the devastation in her community. today, after almost one week, this is what's happening — we're trying to move everything from the house, all the glass, all the shattered glass. we're trying to salvage some furniture. we cannot carry 12 floors down, so they're throwing everything down. this is where the explosion happened. this is the view from my living area. complete destruction.

i'm walking with my daughter to the ice cream place next door. this is our ice cream place. and this is the owner. elias? hi! this is what is left of our ice cream place. those are the pictures of the clients. you'll find pictures of my children somewhere here. my children used to come and help. it was amazing. this is one of the survivors as well. they were here when it happened. this is near my house.

this is a team, the group i am part of. you have a team working to put people in apartments that don't have any more homes. people are giving them their apartments to help people with no homes. this is an operation here. other groups working. amazing. hi, how are you? this is our best speaker. i met him since day one of the revolution. this is my friend, who got injured on saturday. it's everywhere. we keep going? yes. love you guys. hi! i love these people. they're family now. they are amazing.

this is beirut, this is the heart of beirut. this is a building near my house. nothing remains. three people i know died in there. that's my son taking sandwiches and water for the army. there is no electricity, there is no water in most of the apartments here. that's my son. giving the army sandwiches and water. they say they need some more sandwiches. what happened here cannot be imagined in recent history. the only way to cure it is for the whole regime to step down with all its sponsors. you cannot expect the same people who got us here to fix it.

these people need to go, for the lebanon we dream of to rise again. please listen to us. latest on the tragedy in beirut there. now, the weather with chris fawkes. hello again, and the next few days it is going to stay very hot indeed with temperatures only dropping at the end of the week. it means we have more of this hot, sunny, humid weather to come in the end of the week but we have also got some huge thundery dampers coming in bringing torrential rain in places so there will be a few communities that get hits with scenes like this with the risk of flash flooding to come. across wales, the midland, southern england one or two showers that do get going could bring a torrential

downpours. eastern scotland will certainly see some and some of these could be quite slow moving so perhaps an issue for eastern scotla nd perhaps an issue for eastern scotland later on. another very hot day, and then overnight tonight that the storm is a cost eastern scotland, one or two across england and wales pushing through across time, again lots of thunder and lightning in these and it is going to bea lightning in these and it is going to be a very hot night for heading up to be a very hot night for heading up to sleep and temperature still up at 27 degrees in the centre of london at 11 o'clock at night, 25 in birmingham. wednesday sees storms coming northwards across scotland. it will be dry for a time across the uk with sunny spells developing but thunderstorms will be much more widespread i think across wales, southern england and the midlands i think in particular as we had to wednesday afternoon so that is properly where the greatest risk of storm activity in the viscose and flash flooding will be later in the day on wednesday. another hot and humid day of course. on the edge of high pressure will begin to build in a northern areas wednesday and thursday. that will block things and

developing here but in so the swans will get trapped across england and wales, some of them bringing some lengthy and potentially torrential downpours as well. just like the storms will get trapped across england and wales. pressure in the north. for friday we have still got a number of storms or lengthy outbreaks of rain to come in, scotla nd outbreaks of rain to come in, scotland and ireland quite a bit of cloud and a few brighter spells but feeling fresher here, temperature 20 degrees or so in glasgow were still very humid across england and wales and we have a similar weather pattern on into the weekend with low pressure bringing quite a bit of cloud into england and wales, rain 01’ cloud into england and wales, rain or showers around, feeling humid england and wales but if you've sunny spells with scotland and northern ireland.

this is bbc news, i'm ben brown. the headlines: the number of people in work falls by the largest amount in over a decade, more evidence of the impact of the lockdown. they are laying off more people like myself who have got years of experience looking injob adverts every day and thinking, there is just nothing there. there is no end in sight. obviously we want to see is a return to economic vitality and health and some parts of the economy undoubtedly showing great resilience but clearly there are going to be bumpy months ahead and a long, long way to go. back to school in scotland, as the government there sets out what it's doing about thousands of pupils who've had their exam results downgraded.
