shooting unnecessary force in relation to others. that golf analogy. if you don't mind, can we move on a bit quickly to trying get through a few more. we have the figaro with macron there. demanding more from the lebanese political leaders ahead of this donors conference in mid—october. a bit uncomfortable and think about a french leader making demands of a four protectorate 100 years on. do you think after reclaiming the birth ofa you think after reclaiming the birth of a greater lebanon. it is slightly uncomfortable and this is on the seat second trip he is made to lebanon since the awful explosion we saw last month. lebanon finds itself ina saw last month. lebanon finds itself in a really tight spot. we had this explosion that caused such damage, had a huge impact on the lebanese economy, massive loss of life. and
10:46 pm
then at the same time, that really triggered a political crisis with the government residing and lots of talk about link between corruption and the government and what happens in the explosion and the negligence we saw that led to the explosion. so it isa we saw that led to the explosion. so it is a really tricky difficult time for lebanon right now and macron is gone and they're clearly saying i will host another conference and will host another conference and will try and get money but he is also attaching stuff to it by saying there may be sanctions if the lebanese government does not get going so it is uncomfortable territory, you're right. to the guardian. williamson warmed weeks before exam fiasco. i thought i sort of knew this from other papers or maybe even your magazine. does this seem maybe even your magazine. does this seem totally new to you? maybe even your magazine. does this seem totally new to you ?|i maybe even your magazine. does this seem totally new to you? i think we have had different reports previously about the various things gavin williamson and his team knew
10:47 pm
in advance of the awful algorithm. and i think we have had different types of communications where bodies have come forward and individuals have come forward and individuals have contacted say we spotted a problem. i think it is also worth noting that we have a public report if you look at things that robert half in the chair of the education select committee said, pointing out potential problems. so i think that generally speaking, i think there is plenty of evidence to suggest gavin williamson should have been aware there were problems coming up the track but i think ultimately it does feel as though his position is secure for now in dentistry have decided to stick with them. and i think with the return of schools today and throughout the week, i think should they continue going to plan, ithink think should they continue going to plan, i think number ten is his biggest test and that you turn on a level. the biggest risk restrictions in glasgow after a rise in virus restrictions there. that has a side baron
10:48 pm
restrictions there. that has a side bar on the front page of the guardian. scotland reacting very quickly but this will cause a lot of problems and inconvenience people there. that's right. we have got these three areas here seeing similar levels of restrictions we have seen in some areas of england, especially in the northwest. people will not be able to visit other peoples houses or they can still meet up with other households out the worsening gardens and the scottish government has also put in new restrictions on people returning from greece with her has been a spike in cases, especially the island of santee. so it difficult but it is good and i think it is a sign the scottish government is keeping life you can government and a westminster, it is keeping an eye on the spikes and taking action quickly and that is actually critical. interestingly, there is also controversy which the guardian talks about inside its pages about the relaxations of restrictions and
10:49 pm
areas of the northwest in england. so bolton and trafford are set to see those extra restrictions loosened on wednesday and that is turned into a bit of a political fight because you've got local labour leaders and politicians saying actually infections are still really hot, they are incredibly worried about it and they are accusing the government of relaxing these restrictions basically to keep local tory mps like brady the mp for trafford. that will make things very awkward for the government if you have got local leaders saying let's keep it in force. i think it will make local lockdowns contentious increasingly as we go on because we are going to be seeing more and more of them into the autumn and winter. ido of them into the autumn and winter. i do think the government has a problem in the sense that the first area emma leicester of the tory mp there was neal o'brien who is seen asa there was neal o'brien who is seen as a loyalist and even by the end of it he was saying let us out of lockdown. so i think when you have
10:50 pm
mps who are more naturally antilock down or in other scenarios could see | tight down or in other scenarios could see i tight marginal, i think that does put pressure on the government where they have to face down angry mps will add pressure in terms of decision—making. will add pressure in terms of decision-making. 20 seconds each on it nicola sturgeon were in her ta rta n fa ce it nicola sturgeon were in her tartan face mask with an independence push renewed. pretty symbolic and nothing more than that. it is and we would expect her from her with elections next may in scotland so she is excess —— setting up scotland so she is excess —— setting up her stall scotland so she is excess —— setting up herstalland scotland so she is excess —— setting up her stall and independence. scotland so she is excess —— setting up her stalland independence. so i'm not sure there is much to surprise there but i think we can exit the big showdown between the s&p and boris johnson exit the big showdown between the s&p and borisjohnson in exit the big showdown between the s&p and boris johnson in the exit the big showdown between the s&p and borisjohnson in the months to come. and how much pressure will put on the prime minister?” to come. and how much pressure will put on the prime minister? i think it is huge pressure and how does westminster government that's responded this because the concern is if you keep saying no to independence and no to any
10:51 pm
referenda, do you just increased support and i think that is something ministers have to start looking about. and for the first time ever i think coal suggesting there might be more support for independence. we have seen professor john curtis's election poll suing a trend in polling towards independence and i think that means this message should appeal to the scottish, election and as soon as they went in the majority it makes it more difficult for borisjohnson and his government in terms of saying no to entertaining the idea even of a second referendum. thank you both very much indeed. we must end ourfirst look at you both very much indeed. we must end our first look at the papers you both very much indeed. we must end ourfirst look at the papers but for some watching in the uk, they will be back in about 45 minutes. but that is our first look at the papers.
10:52 pm

more details on all the stories on the website. and that's all the sport for now. hello. the first day of september was dry for most of us. we can't quite say the same about the second because it is going to bring outbreaks of pretty heavy rain moving eastwards accompanied by brisk winds. now, the rain will be quite sporadic, quite on and off in nature. but as you can see from the bright green colours, there will be some heavy bursts, and in fact across parts of south west scotland, there could be some localised flooding. the rain accompanied by brisk winds. those are the average wind speeds, but for exposed spots in north west scotland, we could see gusts of 45—50 mph. temperatures between 16—20 degrees. it looks as if east anglia and the far south east will stay dry until after dark, but some patchy rain will arrive here through the night. at the same time, parts of northern ireland and scotland will see clearer skies and just a few showers by the first part of thursday morning. but it will be relatively mild — 1a, 15, 16 degrees. through thursday and friday, we will see some further rain at times towards the south. further north, sunshine and showers.

this is bbc news with me, tim willcox, bringing you the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. president trump flies to kenosha — to praise the police and condemn the damage. violent mobs demolished or damaged at least 25 businesses, burned down public buildings and threw bricks. these are not acts of peaceful protest, but really domestic terror. but his opponents say he's just stoking unrest — and the family ofjacob blake, whose shooting by police triggered all i ask is that he keep his disrespect, his follow language, far away from our family. we need a president who will unite our country and take us in a different direction.
