the two sides were still a way apart on key issues. we have approached these talks with a sense of creativity and imagination was that we are determined to find a way forward, but i can't negotiate on my own. so we think we have done everything we can, and i can see a path through that would achieve a deal, but again, it does require movement on both sides. the rmt has claimed the government is standing in the way of a resolution. we are working hard to get a settlement. but we think this is unlikely at the moment, and the reason we think it is unlikely is, call us cynical, but we think the government department for transport, they are in the background holding the pen. it seems that they don't want a settlement. there is a lot of aggressive mood music coming from the government at the moment. today the rmt called for an urgent meeting with the transport secretary and chancellor, but the government dismissed the idea, saying unions must negotiate with the employers. while thousands of passengers rethink their plans, work is ongoing to figure out how much freight can be kept moving on the railways, for example construction materials, fuel, food and drink.

this firm says business customers have tried to stockpile, but even with contingency plans, the strikes will be disruptive. after three days, that's manageable. i think we can catch up either before or after the dispute. if it becomes a lengthy dispute, that is when you start to get into worries about whether commodities or stuff that goes on the shelf is likely to start being affected. neither side seems to rate the chances of next week's strikes being called off. whether more follow is now the big question. let's join katy now at london's waterloo station. what at london's waterloo station. are the chances of tt being what are the chances of the strikes being called off?— what are the chances of the strikes being called off? what we have been heafina being called off? what we have been hearing today _ being called off? what we have been hearing today is _ being called off? what we have been hearing today is certainly _ being called off? what we have been hearing today is certainly that - hearing today is certainly that neither side feels enough progress has currently been made to prevent the strikes going ahead next week. on tuesday, the london underground staff are due to walk out, so

additional disruption on that day. negotiations between the rail companies, network rail and the union will continue. but there was a fractious debate in parliament this afternoon in which the transport secretary said wages were already high, modern practices needed to be safeguarded to save the railway�*s future. but labour said the government were not helping to find a solution to this.— a solution to this. katie austen, thank you very _ a solution to this. katie austen, thank you very much. _ and for full details on how the strike will affect services in your area there are updates, news and analysis on bbc news 0nline. that's bbc.co.uk/news and by using the bbc news app. yorkshire cricket club and a number of individuals have been charged by the england and wales cricket board with breaches of its code of conduct — following an investigation into racism at the club. the charges relate to bringing the game into disrepute and breaking the anti—discrimination code

exciting period of time for yorkshire, a buoyant england team in time next week, having been deserted ijy time next week, having been deserted by sponsors, they are slowly coming back as the county looks to make a fresh start. but today, a reminder that moving on could take several more months to come. dan roan reporting. around 150 people have been brought ashore in dover today. low winds have created calm seas for channel crossing attempts. yesterday, 444 people were rescued, including a heavily pregnant woman and several babies. that's the highest daily number in two months. meanwhile the government says preparations are already under way for a new flight to take asylum seekers to rwanda, after the first plane was effectively grounded last nightjust before take—off. at the last minute, the european court of human rights ruled in favour of an iraqi man who was challenging being removed to rwanda, saying he faced �*a real risk of irreversible harm'. the home secretary said she was disappointed by the ruling and that ministers would not be put off by what she called "inevitable last—minute legal challenges. 0ur deputy political editor

about a fight with lawyers here and a court in strasbourg, but ultimately she does need to come up with a workable policy. ploughing ahead with plans for another flight to rwanda leaves ministers open to the accusation they could be wasting hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayers' money. until a flight does take off, it is hard to gauge what impact it will have on those trying to come here. at this unofficial camp in dunkirk, many are thinking about their next move. he says he wills they'll try to cross to england. he hopes he will not be sent to rwanda, but stay at daily—macro says it will still be better than iraqi kurdistan. a hammer, some told the bbc the plans could make them think again, an uncertain journey lies ahead for these men and a key government policy. vicki young, bbc news, westminster. last night'sjudgment, which came less than hour before the planned take off of that flight, has raised questions about the legal procedure

surrounding cases like these. here to answer a few of them is our home editor mark easton. it was the intervention of the european court of human rights late last night that turned a flight to rwanda into a flight to nowhere. but how come a judge in strasbourg could effectively stop the policy of the uk government in its tracks? well, britain has left the eu, of course, but we are still in the council of europe. that is entirely separate from the european union, set up after world war ii to oversee a european convention on human rights with a court to make sure signatories, like britain, abide by their obligations. so, how come the uk courts said one thing and the european court said another when it came to last night's flight? the answer is they were looking at slightly different things. the ukjudges had to balance the right of a sovereign government to implement its policies against the potential harm to those due to be on last night's flight. they high court ruled the welfare concerns did not outweigh the right to govern and that the plane could take off.

thejudge in strasbourg noted that the uk courts have agreed to adjudicate next month on whether the whole rwanda policy is lawful or not. thatjudicial review is expected to be concluded by the end ofjuly, so in just six weeks' time. the prime minister has said he still wants to send asylum seekers to rwanda before the lawfulness of the policy has been tested in court. last night, with the runway lights on and the plane ready to depart, the european court stopped the flight. the judge was worried that, if the policy was found to be unlawful, those people sent to east africa might be unable to come back to the uk and that potentially breached their rights under the european convention. so, could, should, can asylum seekers be sent to rwanda in the six weeks before the lawfulness of the whole scheme has been decided? the home office says its already preparing for the next removal plane — and while it could attempt to argue its case at the european court, but it must be in doubt that any asylum seeker will be sent to rwanda before august — or at all.

mark, many thanks. well, the government is also embroiled in a separate legal battle with the european union over the post—brexit trade deal for northern ireland and today the eu announced its to take legal action over the uk's plans to scrap parts of that deal. earlier in the week, ministers in westminster outlined a bill aimed at unilaterally changing arrangements on trade, tax and governance written into the 2019 deal. 0ur europe editor katya adler is here with me. katya, the government says it has been forced to act, but disagree? no. the eu is furious. it says that this post—brexit agreement on northern ireland was designed by uk and eu negotiators to do three things. one, protect the peace process in northern ireland. two, protect internal uk trade and also, three, to protect the eu's single market after brexit. so it said it had all of those plans in mind, designed and signed off together in

law. and if there are problems with the workings of that agreement, known as the protocol, and the eu admits there are problems with it, thenit admits there are problems with it, then it says solutions should be found together. today brussels said that the uk going it alone to change the agreement is illegal. so yes, it has launched the legal proceedings. they will take a long time and could result in fines for the uk. but the eu has also threatened possible trade barriers to uk goods further down the line if it thinks it is necessary. there is no appetite for a trade war. actually, both sides say they would rather negotiate their way to a settlement. but the government says that you isn't listening properly. it says the protocol, the northern ireland agreement, isn't working properly. it says it is upsetting the delicate political and social balance in northern ireland and that is where the government says it feels forced to go it alone. the government says it feels forced to go it alone-— the government says it feels forced to go it alone. our top story this evening.

three days of rail strike next week will see the country ground to a halt. and the england squad for the women's euros is announced ahead of next month's tournament coming up in sportsday on the new channel, cricket allegations in connection with racism at yorkshire. rising sea levels mean nearly 200,000 properties in england may have to be abandoned in the next 30 years, according to a report today. it says about a third of england's coast will be put under pressure by the rise in sea levels, which could increase by as much as a metre by the end of the century. 0ur climate and environment correspondentjonah fisher is in the village of happisburgh on the norfolk coast. yes, happisburgh has one of the

fastest eroding coastlines in the uk. 20 years ago, there were 12 houses along along road stretching out. that is all gone now. if you look at the road here, that is eroding. today there is a report that has come out today that suggests that possibly as many as 200,000 homes and businesses in england could be at risk from rising sea levels. the issues that people here in happisburgh are facing at the moment relating to climate change, erosion and rising sea levels, those are issues that many people around the uk could well be facing in the years ahead. december last year, about the middle of it, there were eight metres of road between here and the end there. i measured it yesterday, and we were down to three metres. the coast of happisburgh is eroding fast. briony�*s bungalow was lost

to the sea in 2013, but she has refused to admit defeat and has moved just 50 metres inland. you're still basically on the front line. lam. it's now the policy of the government and the district council not to build new sea defences here, much to briony�*s annoyance. i feel it's an unpatriotic attitude. not everyone in happisburgh thinks the water should be fought. the sea, no one will ever stop that. it's even more powerful than borisjohnson, would you believe. malcolm has spent the last two decades trying to save happisburgh, and has now come to the view that organised retreat is the best way forward. so you either commit to spending billions over an extended period, or you say, ok, in the light of what's coming with climate change and sea level rise, we will do a properly managed withdrawal and look after the people as we go. scientists predict a sea—level rise of about 30 centimetres by 2050

and possibly as much as a metre by the end of the century. that may not sound much, but it will bring with it flooding and waves that have increased energy and power, smashing into our shoreline, reshaping our coast. but what shape? a new study published today says that by 2050, it may not be possible to defend as many as 200,000 english homes and businesses from the sea. there's not going to be money, probably, under current funding rules. also, it would be really difficult to do. 0ur coast would be quite different from what it looks like now. itjust wouldn't be practical and wouldn't be affordable. tough decisions lie ahead. what should we protect, and what let go? jonah fisher, bbc news, in north norfolk.

now a look at some of the other stories making the news today. shoppers who returned goods to the collapsed manchesterfashion brand, missguided, won't get their money back, according to the administrators winding up the company. the business has been bought by the frasers group, but the company won't be able to honour refunds. it means customers will be left to claim through their credit card. petrol prices have hit new record highs every day for the past month, according to the rac. the cost of filling up a family car now stands at about £103 for petrol, and £106 for diesel. the war in ukraine and moves to reduce dependence on russian oil have helped drive up fuel prices. the first instalment of a payment to help people struggling to pay rising energy bills will be made by the end ofjuly. £326 will be given automatically to low—income households on benefits from 14th july.

next thursday, june 23rd, will see a crucial test for boris johnson's government with two by—elections — tiverton and honiton in devon and wakefield in west yorkshire. let's take a closer look now at the context behind the vote in one of these constituencies, wakefield. it's a cathedral city surrounded by former mining communities — and it was one of the conservatives' many gains in the 2019 general election — with a majority here of 3,358. labour had held the seat for nearly 90 years before that tory victory — meaning it's exactly the kind of heartland seat that sir keir starmer needs to win back. as you can see here, there will be 15 candidates standing in the by—election injust over a week's time. 0ur political correspondent alex forsyth reports from wakefield ahead of next week's vote.

behind every door in wakefield, there's a decision to be made, a political choice in a by—election that's being closely watched. robert, who's lived here for 50 years, has certainly noticed the attention. there's been plenty of paraphernalia coming through the door, you know. it's promises and promises. a few streets away, mary and billy have also had knock at their door. most people i have talked to are amazed that there candidates for onejob! it is a crowded field. historically, this was a labour stronghold, but support crumbled in 2019, when borisjohnson swept through parts of the midlands and north. now the fight is on again. labour is pushing hard, while the conservatives are trying to hold support. at a local heritage site, some are clear who's got theirs. i like boris. i think on all the major issues, he has done absolutely brilliantly. i'm just thinking about voting labour. what their policies are,

ijust go with that. we need someone instead of borisjohnson. ijust think he's a fool. in the city centre, there is talk of the need for investment, jobs, better public transport. local issues matter in a contest with national significance. this by—election is being seen as something of a test for the party leaders. after recent political turmoil, can borisjohnson still command support in places like this? for sir keir starmer, can he rebuild labour's backing where he really needs to? tattoo artist dave was a labour voter all his life, but switched to the tories in 2019 because of brexit. now, facing the struggle of rising bills, he has lost faith across the board. let us down, really. if borisjohnson had delivered, they could have kept the vote here. i'd like to think i could have voted labour, but no, not with keir starmer there. nobody represents working people any more. not far away, scott, whose specialist woodshop we first

visited during the pandemic, shares a sense of disillusion. they just want that little notch on their belt of, "we've got wakefield again". it should go to whoever�*s going to do best for wakefield. it's not about, its red or blue, because as soon as this by—election's done, we'll be forgot about again. but for now, the political focus is on wakefield, where smaller parties and independents are among those vying for residents' votes in a contest that promises to measure the public mood and leave letterboxes full of leaflets. alex forsyth, bbc news, wakefield. with under a month to go until england hosts the women's euros, the squad for the tournament has been confirmed. the duke of cambridge, who is president of the football association, met the england team at st george's park earlier today. 0ur sports correspondent jane dougall has more. an alternative career for the young princes and princess, perhaps. the duke of cambridge was delighted with
