days left for ell! days left for the former england striker eni aluko feels social media companies must be accountable to government in their efforts to stamp out online abuse. she earlier told me that the gains in 2012 were a watershed moment for women's football and also as a commentator after the black players received abuse for their euro final loss. the experience was like changing honestly. i live in a world where football rules and is donated by football rules and is donated by football but the olympics are bigger than football. and for all of us involved we saw how important sports is to the rest of the world and how effective it is in making people happy and inspiring the next generation for each sport. so just looking up and walking into the lift and seeing the other athletes and one day i walked into the lift and
6:46 pm
anthonyjoshua was there and jessica ennis and all these amazing athletes who work so hard. and i think at the time, women's football was still at a point in 2012 were people did not really care. it was not sort of the sport it is now where is attracting broadcasters and brands and players are playing at the highest level. we were really at the cusp of change for the game and the olympics was to see change. and a watershed moment for women positive about because it opened up the olympics. i really proud to have been part of that time when it shifted the olympics and hopefully the same for the women's football and women both men football in the tokyo olympics as well. what in the tokyo olympics as well. what did ou in the tokyo olympics as well. what did you make _ in the tokyo olympics as well. what did you make of— in the tokyo olympics as well. what did you make of the _ in the tokyo olympics as well. what did you make of the racist abuse of england's black players it after the euro final. it was a reaction to that?

the world's reaction should be which is discussed in disappointment but i'm not surprised. frankly i don't really think that we should be reducing what was a very successful run and very successful tournament for england down to racism and the racist response to penalties, to be honest. i will but for the focus on the fact that england got to the final, it was 18, a multicultural team, a diversity in the everybody celebrated and everybody felt was relatable to them, with a coach in gareth southgate who really lead the way in a really admirable way. deleting your twitter account making a stand in that way, is that something that you feel will make an impact in how social media firms tackle this?— impact in how social media firms tackle this? no, i think will make an imact tackle this? no, i think will make an impact will— tackle this? no, i think will make an impact will be _ tackle this? no, i think will make an impact will be the _ tackle this? no, i think will make an impact will be the social - tackle this? no, i think will make| an impact will be the social media firms like twitter to become accountable either through government, for government to

legislate against this and for more accountability to be brought through with the criminaliszation of racism on social medium. that is what is going to happen impact. i don't think talking or tweeting about is going to have an impact and ifeel hypocritical being on a platform, the very platform that i am sort of trying to stand against and i feel hypocritical being part of it. with the men's euros now over, the next big footballing tournament on the horizon is next year's delayed women's euros, which will take place across england. one of those hoping to be a part of it is toni duggan. after four seasons in spain, she's recently rejoined everton, the club where she started her professional career. it's been a long time, eight years since _ it's been a long time, eight years since i_ it's been a long time, eight years since i was — it's been a long time, eight years since i was last over as well. i think— since i was last over as well. i think everything has gone full circle — think everything has gone full circle to— think everything has gone full circle to be honest and i could not be happier— circle to be honest and i could not be happier with how it's gone. throughout the whole so far, i play champions — throughout the whole so far, i play champions league so far bart one so to come _ champions league so far bart one so to come back here for every ten and

6:50 pm
cut off time and stay in the race. he has exceeded all expectations, unlike team ineos. they had won seven of the previous nine tourists but this your not so well. garrett thomas crashed and no stage went so far in the lead rider is only four. it will be hard to challenge tadej pogacar who leads by five minutes or even finish alongside him on the podium. with the grenadier is opted not to chase the stage went today. however patrick conrad did as he broke three and held on for 18 miles, the first professional stage win for the 29—year—old from vienna which meant everything to him. while the other leading contenders all finish together, the battle for your lubricant miss tomorrow but time is running out. —— the battle for yellow will recommence tomorrow. he's won seven world titles and is the most successful driver formula i has ever seen. now lewis hamilton has a new mission — to make the sport more diverse. his plan is to get more young black

6:55 pm
off a attent by conservative backbenchers to lower the foreign aid spending. the government won by 35 in an attempt to lower the target to 0.5% of foreign aid spending. a certificate when for borisjohnson certificate when for boris johnson singh off certificate when for borisjohnson singh off a tory certificate when for boris johnson singh off a tory revote and at the same time has parked an issue that seems divisive amongst tory voters. he is less of a bit of time. i'm sure he parked it entirely. savings today was not the fact that the government won but the fact the house of commons actually voted for because until this morning, the government aid cut was a temporary affair. something it said that will be returned as soon as the fiscal situation allows and there was lots of members in government that would happen next year. that is now not going to happen also government has now applied it to new tests before any aid spending can be increased again and that means national debt has to be falling, borrowing has to be wiped out so there is no longer being used for day—to—day spending.
6:56 pm
and there are many economists and many mps in many aid charities to say those bars are so high, they are very difficult to leap over and what effectively mps have voted for today is an effective permanent cut in the uk's aid budget. and that it's usually significant. so the impact todayis usually significant. so the impact today is the fact that the uk government has taken £4 million out of it's a budget this year that will be repeated at nausea now until those economic tests are met and that bar is very high. in those economic tests are met and that bar is very high.— that bar is very high. in some senior conservatives - that bar is very high. in some senior conservatives not - that bar is very high. in some senior conservatives not very| that bar is very high. in some - senior conservatives not very happy about it. here's a tweet from the former scottish conservative leader ruth davidson who said for colleagues who should i manifest after an effective and committed to this, it is a bloodied disgrace. and here is theresa may speaking in the house of commons a little earlier. we are told they will be dire conferences for tax and public spending _ conferences for tax and public spending if this motion is defeated tonight _

literally in the last two minutes to add to what theresa may said an estimate from sirjohn major the former conservative prime minister, send government has bleakly broken his word should be ashamed. this is not conservatives in a pretty nice but the stamp of little england and not great britain. this route has not great britain. this route has not gone away yet.— not gone away yet. james in westminster, _ not gone away yet. james in westminster, thank - not gone away yet. james in westminster, thank you - not gone away yet. james in | westminster, thank you very not gone away yet. james in - westminster, thank you very much indeed. headlights coming up for you very shortly but now time for a pause and the weather. it's a pleasant enough evening out there as well. just a couple of scattered showers in one or two areas. what about tomorrow? looking good. in fact, the outlook is looking very good indeed. it's going turn increasingly warm and sunny. so, the here and now, across many central and western areas, it is going to be a mostly clear night. however, out towards the east, along the north sea coast, it may turn cloudy, so that means a bit of a slow start to the day for some of us on wednesday. but not cold in the morning. 15 degrees, for example, in liverpool. so, the forecast for wednesday, lots of fine weather
6:59 pm
right from the word go. plenty of sunny spells all the way. in one or two areas in the north west it might turn a little cloudier and cooler, too. 17 for stornoway, but low 20s for the lowlands of scotland and northern ireland. mid—20s expected in the south. how about thursday and friday? every bit as warm and sunny. in fact, by friday in some spots, up to 27 degrees.
