time for a look at all the weather news and matt taylor is here in the studio, it is a pleasure to have you. lovely to be back, it has been a while and i don't bring you the finalfrontier but while and i don't bring you the final frontier but the glorious view of aurora from earlier in the month across scotland and there is a chance and if you could see that repeated tonight. i say a few because the big spoiler in the story is cloud, running around this area of high pressure which will bring to us all in coming days but that cloud around the eastern edge bringing quite a lot of rain around scotland today and will extend further southwards, blotting out the view of aurora for many, the best chance across the far north—east of scotland. there will be clearer skies further south but a chilly night, temperatures last night down to two or three degrees, similar story tonight. much milder elsewhere with the cloud in place. tomorrow, more cloud generally speaking, some sunshine in orkney and shetland is but even here, more cloud than we
6:31 pm
saw today. a reasonably mild even with the view cloud breaks developing, especially in the west but in eastern scotland, eastern england, a bit of a chill on the eastern side of a weather front and that means temperatures only around 10-12 but that means temperatures only around 10—12 but a change on the way, it is just a temporary blip because temperatures are back up by the time we hit wednesday because the area of high pressure with us slips further southwards and allows atlantic winds to push back in off the west, chasing the weather front back into the north sea. early rain on wednesday in orkney and shetland and a few splashes down eastern coasts but otherwise a dry and bright day and more sunshine compared to tuesday and eastern areas that little bit milder, across the board, temperatures two or three degrees above average for the time of the year. but cold air will make more of a dominant surge as we go to the end of the week, behind this active weather front on thursday. heavy rain across scotland and developing northerly winds. temperatures in dundee around 10 degrees, by this weekend, 14 in norwich but most will

to improve. women's football has been rocked by allegations of abuse which started at the league in the usa and lead to reports of similar occurrences in venezuela and australia. this weekend here in the uk players from the women's super league show their solidarity with the victims by coming together to form a circle before the games. let's bring in our correspondent now. relating to those allegations from australia we've had an update overnight. evidently on a statement from them its elders, the national team. just walk us through what was alleged and what that statement said.— that statement said. sure. the allegations _ that statement said. sure. the allegations were _ that statement said. sure. the allegations were made - that statement said. sure. the allegations were made by - that statement said. sure. the allegations were made by a - that statement said. sure. the l allegations were made by a huge that statement said. sure. the - allegations were made by a huge name in australian sport, she played in four world cup. she retired recently
6:38 pm
but she has alleged that while she was playing for the matilda's, when she was 17, when these allegations started when she was part of the set “p started when she was part of the set up she's alleged, made allegations against her teammates of sexual harassment of bullying and of grooming. as a result of that the governing body football australia is launched an independent investigation. today they also released a statement on behalf of the players. the current players said they acknowledge the seriousness of the allegations about the past and empathise with herfor not feeling like she could come forward earlier. but then go on to defend the current set up in the statement put up the statement talks about the strong professional inclusive and professional culture they have today within the team. say they have today within the team. say they are heard as well what happened. it also includes 15 players including the captain who says that in her time with the team the team has been a safe haven for
6:39 pm
her. i think it's fair the statement has provoked something of a mixed response. they have been criticised in some quarters for its tone and the way the release was handled. and others have been supportive of the matilda's for breaking their silence on this important issue. i matilda's for breaking their silence on this important issue.— on this important issue. i suppose we've seen _ on this important issue. i suppose we've seen over — on this important issue. i suppose we've seen over the _ on this important issue. i suppose we've seen over the last _ on this important issue. i suppose we've seen over the last couple i on this important issue. i suppose we've seen over the last couple ofj we've seen over the last couple of years women's football perhaps having a moment of reckoning with allegations coming across the world. it feels like a big moment for the sport. it feels like a big moment for the sort. ., ., , sport. you are absolutely right. i think what _ sport. you are absolutely right. i think what we _ sport. you are absolutely right. i think what we are _ sport. you are absolutely right. i think what we are seeing - sport. you are absolutely right. i think what we are seeing from i think what we are seeing from australia is really the latest step in this me to movement sweeping through women's football that appears to be gathering momentum. we've seen players feel more power to share this towers in the wake of those explosive allegations from the nws l. we've also seen numerous independent investigations launched around the world including fifa as well. i think was going to happen now is there will be a huge amount of scrutiny on those independent
6:40 pm
investigations. the powers that be are going to be really made to be held to account and to prove to their listening to the players and that these investigation are just choking a stick and can bring about some kind of meaningful and systemic change. i think there's an expectation as well that this isn't the last stage in this, this is a movement that is building and we may well hear more accounts from different players around the world. i think the most important thing in all of this is that these allegations and the reactions, the powerful response, the public a sport was saying as well that it all comes about to help players feel more safe in a way that they haven't perhaps felt in the past.— perhaps felt in the past. thank you so much for— perhaps felt in the past. thank you so much forjoining _ perhaps felt in the past. thank you so much forjoining us _ perhaps felt in the past. thank you so much forjoining us on - perhaps felt in the past. thank you so much forjoining us on sports i so much forjoining us on sports day. it's been a pretty good weekend for french rugby league — although catalans dragons lost the grand final on saturday, they made history by reaching it. and next season, they'll be joined in the super league by another french side, in toulouse. they won the �*million pound game'

for you. you can see very clearly when your mural was decorated with letters, do you feel the support of the people that admire you, notjust football fans but people who admire what you do not the pitch to? it something you have not experienced before. and secondly great feeling for me to have that support from people, some of them don't even watch football. it was nice to see people behind us. you never want to get that far and they get to the final game and losing penalties, it's such fine margins and i've been lucky enough to take a lot of penalty kicks in some of them go in and some of them don't. but it's never a time that racism is acceptable but we should accept racism and just get on with our lives. probably on the biggest stage that racism has been in front of us as young players. it was nice to see so many people supporting us, we thought we ended seen anything. hose thought we ended seen anything. how did ou thought we ended seen anything. how did you cope — thought we ended seen anything. how did you cope with that mentally at the time? it did you cope with that mentally at the time? ., ., ~' did you cope with that mentally at the time? ., ., ~ ., ,., .,

6:54 pm
with these things and we complied. as you can imagine gathering evidence to find out who the perpetrators are is very difficult and they've done their very best for that but i think of until this point we haven't been able to pursue any individuals. although we have quite a good idea of who some of them might be. what we've got to ask is where it is a sock? is it next time they're going to burn the house down with mac that could be somebody in that house they can evangelise my car in make it dangerous to drive or my partner? very damaged by business interests quite considerably and this is stoked up by the engagement of certain countryside organisations. i've taken a considerable financial hit on account of the fact that they have harassed people that would employ me. i've absorbed that, i'm carrying on, ifound me. i've absorbed that, i'm carrying on, i found alternatives. me. i've absorbed that, i'm carrying on, ifound alternatives. but there is no alternative if your houses burned down or stepdaughter is beaten up or your partner, my
6:55 pm
partner is hurt as well. i don't know where does it stop? i have to continue. in fact i have an ever increasingly urgent need to continue given the state of the world. i'm also conscious of the fact that one of the reason the natural world is in such a poor condition is because environmentalists and confit is like myself and indeed even prince charles as he submitted this morning on your report, we feel a certain underlying sense of shame that we haven't done enough quickly enough. and both he and i are older gentlemen, shall we say, it is a consequence of that we recognise that time is running out and therefore we have to act with ever more energy and determination to make a difference whilst we have that opportunity to do so. no, of course i cannot back down and i will not back down. i may change my mind if i think that one of the things in campaigning for turns out to be wrong, we all should reserve that right was up because i'm asking other people to change their minds. but at this point in time, the things i'm campaigning against,
6:56 pm
