hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow.
11:31 pm
with me are the daily mirror's political correspondent aleeta adu, and sam lister — deputy political editor at the daily express. let's take a quick look at some of tomorrow's front pages. the daily mail has an interview with the prime minister, in which he intensifies his campaign against working from home. borisjohnson says when he's done it, he's wasted a lot of time making cups of coffee and eating cheese. the i has details of a drug that has halved breast cancer cases among post—menopausal women — the nhs is planning to roll ir out on a wider basis. the ft leads with tech tycoon elon musk putting his billion—dollar bid to buy twitter on hold. the "wagatha christie" libel trial makes the front page of the mirror — with coleen rooney giving evidence in court about her past marital problems. the government will scrap plans to ban cheap deals on unhealthy foods, according to the express — in a move to tackle
11:32 pm
the cost of living crisis. cheap food also makes the front page of the guardian, which carries a warning from the former boss of sainsbury�*s that the days of shoppers enjoying low prices in uk supermarkets are over. in the times, education secretary nadhim zahawi says the country should be proud of its private schools, and should not change admission procedures to try to get more state school pupils into oxbridge. and the sun's front page is dominated by a picture of bbc podcaster and cancer campaigner deborahjames being given her damehood by prince william — just a day after it was announced she was being given it. she is of course receiving end of life care at home having integer treatment for bowel cancer. let's begin with sam. sam, kick off on the guardian story, linked also to your paper's strained the express about

11:37 pm
35 billion, but he's wired18% of the share price at his unusual move today. as you say, he is talking about the pot accounts, the fake accounts, do the figures stacked up? twitter says it's about 5% of accounts and they have done consistently. he wants proof that thatis consistently. he wants proof that that is the case. it's also suggestions that that could be a genuine thing because he wants to make more money out of twitter, you know, twitter doesn't actually come it's not a massive obvious revenue stream at the moment. he may be looking towards linking advertising or subscriptions and that kind of thing, so he wants proper numbers. lots of people speculating about what is true motive is here, i guess on he knows. he what is true motive is here, i guess on he know-— on he knows. he does, and he has demonstrated again, _ on he knows. he does, and he has demonstrated again, aleeta, - on he knows. he does, and he has demonstrated again, aleeta, the l demonstrated again, aleeta, the power of the tweet.— demonstrated again, aleeta, the power of the tweet. yes, exactly. we saw that twitter _ power of the tweet. yes, exactly. we saw that twitter share _ power of the tweet. yes, exactly. we saw that twitter share prices - saw that twitter share prices

we know how good chelsea is and so we expect another tough one, so that is it but again it is the fa cup final in both teams will go before they have and that is what i expect from chelsea, and especially from us, and what we really love about the carabao cup as we realised that what a unique location wembley is in this moment with all the people in and it is outstanding and we want to have that again of course. it's a special momentum that you have to catch and for sure you need a piece of lot to go away with a trophy. we are aware of that but we feel again well—prepared and the atmosphere is right, the momentum is ok after the reaction and everyone knows what we are up to and we want to arrive of course to give liverpool a hard fight. so chelsea are also in action in the women's fa cup final. they're playing manchester city — going for the double having just

won the league title. it'll be the first time both the men's and women's finals have been played on the same weekend and city striker chloe kelly is looking forward to playing in front of an expected record crowd. there is not a team in the league that can match our footballing ability, i think the way we play is brilliant and that is why i love playing here. chelsea sits in front of us and we know we beat them in the continental cup already this season, i think that gives us a bit of confidence as well going into the game. my brothers are really looking forward to it, growing up, we were always watching the fa cup, so i think my family are probably looking forward to it more so than me because i played at wimbley before, but without the fans there, so this time to do it in front of my family will be extra special. and myself, i knew that i would get back and be on the pitch back to my best again. oh, that is a poor

pass, it is kelly, it is 2—0. an emotional moment for chloe kelly who scores her first goal. in nearly a year, recovering from that horrific knee injury study i trusted my body. i have confidence in a rehab that i've done. i worked really hard day in and day out and the group around me did as well, so i have that confidence. i don't fear anything. i feel like a kid at the minutes, i don't want to see it end, but i think when you have that spell on the sideline, when you come back you just appreciate it so much more, so i'm just enjoying every minute back on the pitch, and i'm hungry to learn and i'm hungry to win trophies. of course i want to be at the euros, that's what i'm fighting for at the minute, and each game, i think, is a stepping stone to getting there, so since the 2012 olympics, the women's game hasjust

exploded from there, so if we can get that again, we can reach unbelievable heights in the women's game, it's an exciting summer for everyone involved in women's football. the first of this year's championship play—off semi—finals ended in stalemate as luton held huddersfield to a one all draw. huddersfield scored first early on — luxembourg midfielder danel sinani doing well with a low shot. luton equalised on the half hour mark but then it stayed level. huddersfield are hoping to get back to the premier league after only three years out but luton haven't been in the top flight for three decades. the second leg is on monday. the final is at the end of the month. britain's dina asher smith was back racing the 200m in doha — the city where she became world champion in 2019. she finished third in the diamond meeting final though behind the american — gabby thomas winning in 21.98 seconds — and jamaica's shericka jackson in second. asha—smith withdrew from the 200m race at the tokyo olympics last year

finally — take a look at the moment a whirlwind interrupted at a football match in peru. semillero and san andres were playing a game on a dirt pitch. and just after a goal had been scored and the players were walking back, a whirlwind appeared behind one of the goals, it crossed the length of the pitch, everyone got out the way and watched it disappear off. luckily no one was hurt. and that's all the sport for now. hello there. we had some contrasting weather conditions on friday across the country. it was rather cool and breezy at times across scotland and northeast england, as depicted by this weather watcher in moray. in fact, in one or two spots, temperature struggled to climb into double figures. but it was a different story after a rather grey start across england and wales.
11:58 pm
the cloud broke up and we saw temperatures peaking in the london area by the middle of the afternoon of 21 celsius. now, clear skies will continue to dominate the weather story to start off our weekend. we will see a little more in the way of cloud, producing a few scattered showers into the far northwest of the great glen, but elsewhere, it's a relatively mild start to the day, and, yes, there will be some early morning sunshine for many. out to the west, there will be a little bit of early morning patchy mist and low fog. that's because we've got high—pressure building, winds falling light. but i just want to draw your attention to these showers down into the southwest arriving later on in the day. so, that early mist will lift away, a lot of sunshine pretty much throughout the day. we could just see a little more in the way of coastal cloud out towards the far northwest. top temperatures, though, warmer than friday in scotland, highs of 11—18 celsius. we could see 22—23 celsius somewhere across southeast england. that's 73 fahrenheit. now, into the evening, though, those showers will arrive through the southwest across wales pushing their way into central and southern england.
11:59 pm
there will be some sharp thundery downpours mixed in there as well as those showers move through during the early hours of sunday. they will take their time to clear away as well. some running down through the channel coast, some moving up through wales, stretching up into northern england and scotland for the second half of the weekend. so a slightly different feel to the weather story. still warm where you keep the sunshine, highs again of 23 celsius. there will be further showers to come through sunday evening into the early hours of monday. if anything, more widespread sharp showers, possibly still thundery, moving their way up to scotland, and that is because as we go through into next week, we continue to see the risk of some low—pressure systems pushing in off the atlantic. always sitting out to the west, so the further east you are, it should stay largely fine and dry. but a little more unsettled, particularly the further north and west, warmer in the south with temperatures once again into the low 20s.
