prey and standing water. why? the same area of low pressure that brought rain in sitting to the south of us, bringing showers and longer spells of rain across parts of england, as you see, more showers and thunderstorms brewing to the south and east. it's likely we see more sunshine continue parts of scotland and northern ireland, wales and the midlands but here we could brew up the odd thunderstorm and torrential downpour. if you get the sunshine between the showers, 21 degrees, a smidgen below average for the time of year but temperatures on the time of year but temperatures on the rise this week. overnight, the showers tend to fade for most part, continuing to rumble on the english channel coast, low cloud returning quite quickly across eastern scotland and eastern england, patchy fog in land, 12—14, quite warm. once that cares quite quickly tomorrow, except for the east coast, looking as if we will see fewer showers and more sunshine, that low pulling away, as you see is still a close fight to the south and east, that's

where the most likely chances of some downpours but there won't be a completely dry picture, there will be some showers dotted around but lengthy and dry spells, lengthy spells of sunshine, temperatures responding, up to the low 20s for many of us, away from the east coast, it could stay quite carrier. in response to the sunshine, we see high to very high levels of pollen. into wednesday, that low pressure still close by enough to threaten some showers in the south and east, this week with a front brushing its way to the north—west but very few showers in comparison to what we had yesterday, and today, therefore temperatures leaping more up into the mid 20s, potentially across southern parts of england and wales. and then, high pressure starts to build and that will bring a settled end to the week of weather, so with lengthy spells of sunshine and some real warmth coming through, it is if

you'd like that sort of weather, an improving picture with more sunshine coming through. thank you. good afternoon, it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. england's european dream ended in heartbreak after losing on penalties to italy at wembley last night. their first major international tournament final in 55 years. manager gareth southgate says he accepts responsibility for the loss — but it's matters off the field that have also been in the spotlight — including racist abuse aimed at some of the england players after the defeat. john watson is at wembley for us. many positives for the england players to take away from this euros but the final marred by some terrible behaviour from so—called fans.

yes, you may have seen those videos on social media of some sections of the fans who didn't have tickets making their way, forcing their way through the barriers and security to gain access to wembley stadium. the police confirming that 50 arrests had been made yesterday. but it is the racist abuse suffered by the penalty takers who miss those penalties for england last night, saka, sancho, rashford, that is making headlines once again, as it seems to continually do so, receiving those racist messages on social media platforms last night. the fa condemning the behaviour, as has prime minister borisjohnson, calling it disgusting. it is only going to raise questions once again about how best to tackle this problem, oraction about how best to tackle this problem, or action can be taken, and calls once again for regulation of social media company so that this

kind of abuse can be stopped. gareth southgate inevitably was asked about it in his press conference this morning, he was clearly fixed rated and angry that he is having to face questions like this once again. for some of them to be abused is unforgivable, really. i know a lot of that— unforgivable, really. i know a lot of that has— unforgivable, really. i know a lot of that has come from abroad, people that track— of that has come from abroad, people that track those things have been able to— that track those things have been able to explain that. but not all of it. able to explain that. but not all of it it _ able to explain that. but not all of it it is _ able to explain that. but not all of it it isjust— able to explain that. but not all of it. it isjust not what we stand for, _ it. it isjust not what we stand for. we. — it. it isjust not what we stand for. we. i_ it. it isjust not what we stand for, we, ithink, have been a beacon of tight— for, we, ithink, have been a beacon of tight in_ for, we, ithink, have been a beacon of light in bringing people together and people being able to relate to the national team, add the national teams _ the national team, add the national teams stands for everybody. interesting gareth southgate this morning saying his first thoughts last night turned to those players who missed those penalties, those young players who will have to carry that now with them, just as gareth

southgate did at euro 96,. but hopes that after everything england have achieved in this tournament, at the highs both on and off the pitch, hopefully what happened here yesterday and what has happened since across social media, will not overshadow what has been a brilliant two for england. —— to the mentor for england. as we've been hearing questions have been asked about the policing and security at the game, afterfans managed to push through the barriers at wembley before the match and gain entry to the stadium. the fa say they will conduct a review. chief executive mark bullingham apologised to legitimate fans and said the security team had "never seen anything like it". it was sad and frustrating to see some drunken yobs trying to break into the stadium, unfortunately one of succeed, we don't quite know how many yet, we're pulling together the evidence to find out what has happened, we'll take action against people involved. when we step back

and look at the matches we have staged at wembley and upon impact throughout the country of this extreme e and the buzz that has been created, we have had so much praise, and that will help us to future tournaments. conor murray will lead the british and irish lions for the first time when they take on south africa �*a' in cape town on wednesday. warren gatland will make 12 changes to the side that beat the sharks 71—31 on saturday. the match is to go ahead despite a covid outbreak in the springboks camp — the first lions test is on the 24thjuly. i'll have more for you in the next hour. last night's match will have given pubs and bars across the country a much—needed financial boost. with restrictions set to ease further next week, the hospitality sector will be hoping this momentum continues. sarah corker is at a brewery in salford this lunchtime. around 100 people watched the final last night here at severn brothers

brewery in salford. there are five big screens on the walls. but social distancing rules meant that they were still only operating at about 80% capacity. but the football has brought a welcome economic boost for many businesses. beer sales here have surged over the last couple of weeks. in fact, an estimated 7 million pints a day and last night alone. the hospitality sector, though, is now planning for the 19th ofjuly. —— were downed last night. that is when final restrictions are expected to be lifted. social distancing rules could be relaxed, wearing a facemask could become a personal choice, night clubs could reopen again, and we could all have a drink at the bar and start queueing instead of table service, so lots of changes ahead. we are expecting to hear more details on the timescale from downing street later on today. businesses, you know, lots of challenges, now looking to the weeks and months ahead. with me now is keith,

the manager of the brewery, good morning, keith. a quick question about last night, how much has of a boost has the football been for sales? football has been incredible. ever since restrictions started to be lifted from april into may, the last fortnight, the last four weeks, actually, the football has been incredible for businesses. and what about next week onwards, what changes will you be making if rules are relaxed? hopefully, rules will be relaxed. it will be tricky for us, because, you know, we are a manufacturer as well as a retailer. here we make the beer and we have our bars as well. so it is going to be tricky because people are going to have to be cautious. so we will take it, we will listen to our customers and see what they want. and take it from there, really. and you are expanding as well. namely, a new taproom at manchester airport. so more people travelling and those rules relaxed will be really important for you as well.

yeah, thankfully, we are getting news that air travel is going to get the go—ahead. people are getting vaccinated which is incredible. so that news is a huge boost to our business. but we will see, we will see how it goes. it is something we have been planning for the last 18 months as well. this should have happened last april. so we are really, really pleased that things are starting to, you know, we are looking forward to basically. —— forward to it. some cautious optimism there. thank you. one of the things that may change is the work from home guidance could be lifted, businesses reliant on that commuter trade in city centres, they could have a lot to kind of look forward to going forward. and, jason, you have got a big garden, a big bit of open space, how important has that been over the last 18 months? it's been huge. it's been absolutely critical. i think without that and a very friendlyl

landlord, we wouldn't be here. and the football really helped last night to get bums on seats? yes, definitely helped, definitely thirsty. - so we got from... this week was probably our best week of the i entire year. we have talked a lot about staffing and the hospitality sector, recruiting at the moment, what challenges have you come across in terms of getting the chefs, the waitresses, the bartenders that you need? as for recruitment, we have not been able to get to the level— that we needed, especially with |the football, these busy shifts.| we have been pretty constantly running a| couple of people - short on every shift. which means the team have to work that bit harder to make it— work. and table service, presumably, means that you need more staff to do that as well. will you be keeping the table service option or will we be seeing more people queueing at the bar again like we used to? we are going to be pragmatic and as cautious as we possibly can be. - we will let some - people up to the bar, | but not quite back to what it usedi to be, but we will also be keeping table service open for those people

i who are a little bit nervous or. might be vulnerable themselves. thank you very much. good luck for the future. and some businesses are allowing their staff a later start this morning so, you know, they'll get a lie—in, time to recover from the drama of last night. ajordanian court has found two men guilty of plotting with a former crown prince to destabilise the kingdom. an ex—chief of the royal court, bassem awadullah, and a minor member of royal family have been sentenced to 15 years in prison. the prince allegedly involved in the plot, prince hamza, was not on trial. after the conspiracy emerged he reaffirmed his allegiance to king abdullah. bbc world service's middle east analyst alanjohnston has more on the background to the case. for a long time, jordan has enjoyed a reputation for stability in what is a turbulent region, but that image took a real battering back in april when it was suddenly

announced that a senior member of the royalfamily, prince hamza, had been conspiring, allegedly, against the king, king abdullah. there was mediation between the two men and soon prince hamza reaffirmed his loyalty to the king. he has not been put on trial but two of his co—conspirators have, an ex chief ofthe royal court, bassem awadullah, and a former member of the royalfamily. —— minor member. it has been done behind closed doors, but reports have emerged that suggest that the prosecution alleged that the plotters sought to present prince hamza as an alternative to the king. they looked to capitalise on popular discontent with issues like corruption and economic hardship, said to have discussed how prince hamza should best present himself on social media, and said to have hoped they might

eventually attract support from saudi arabia's powerful crown prince, mohammad bin salman. the men deny the charges but have been sentenced to 15 years in prison. more than 50 people have died in lightning strikes across several states in india. among the victims were young people taking selfies in the rain while standing on top of a watchtower at a popular tourist spot in the city of jaipur. the chief ministers of uttar pradesh and rajasthan, and india's prime minister narendra modi, have announced compensation for the families of those who died. the headlines on bbc news... prince william says he's sickened by the racial abuse of the england footballers who missed their penalties in last night's defeat to italy. he's called the online abuse of these three stars abhorrent and unacceptable. it's also been condemned by england's manager. it follows a night of heartache
