this is bbc news. i'm kasia madera. the latest headlines. the us supreme court has ended the constitutional right to have an abortion. it means the landmark roe v wade ruling, dating back nearly 50 years, has been overturned. the final opinion, was written byjustice alito the final opinion was written byjustice alito and issued on friday. the historicjudgement is set to transform abortion rights in america, with individual states now able to ban or crowds were gathered outside the court when the ruling emerged, but president biden has been strongly critical. back in britain, and boris johnson insists he'll carry on as prime minister, despite two devastating by—election defeats — one to labour and the other to the liberal democrats. the prime minister has also been hit by the resignation of conservative chairman oliver durden from the cabinet. ukrainian troops have been ordered to withdraw in severodonetsk, in the east of the country. that's according to the governor of luhansk. he said it didn't make sense

for soldiers to remain in destroyed positions. hello and welcome to look ahead the papers and the websites here in the uk in the world. they are covering all the main stories. with us is the daily mirror columnists... her face is that all there! sorry about that slip of the tome. —— clip of the tongue. let me get that right from the art. shall i crack on? one story dominates many of tomorrow's front pages. the ft leads with the us supreme court striking down roe vs

wade, which has guaranteed the constitutional right to an abortion in the united states for 50 years. the i says that tens of millions of women will now be denied access to abortion — with half of us states planning to make abortion illegal, some of them immediately. let's take a look at some us news websites. the la times says that the ruling marks the most significant curtailing of a constitutional right in supreme court's history. thw new york post asks "what could happen next". several us states including kentucky, louisiana, south dakota and missouri have immediately banned abortion. moving on to uk politics — the times says that borisjohnson is facing another attempt to remove him after those by—election defeats. the paper says senior conservatives are warning that the party is heading for "disaster". the daily mail says a senior cabinet minister has demanded to know if labour and the lib dems had

an anti—tory electoral pact. and finally, the daily express says that borisjohnson is convinced he can ride out the political storms and win the next general election if the "winds change" in his favour. so, those are some of the front pages. let's begin with my fermentable tests. i'll get it right this time. —— my formidable guests. we've been focusing on this. ali, we will start with you this time. this huge ruling, ali, historic changes for the us and the front page of the website on the los angeles times, my body, my choice. two different opinions, lots of placards and

demonstrations.— opinions, lots of placards and demonstrations. this is a division between those _ demonstrations. this is a division between those in _ demonstrations. this is a division between those in the _ demonstrations. this is a division between those in the us - demonstrations. this is a division between those in the us who - demonstrations. this is a division - between those in the us who believe in pro—choice, the right of the woman to decide what happens to her body, and the pro—life continuance of —— pro—life contingent as well. this is been brought in by a 6—3 vote of the supreme court. five men and one woman voted for this. this was understandable and expected because the court has been moving in a more conservative direction. i thought the ruth bader ginsburg who was appointed in 1993 should've gone before she passed away in 2020. she was timed her departure better by leaving under obama so that obama could've appointed a suitably liberaljustice, which is exactly

whatjustice prayer is doing right now when you got to otology brown, the first black woman, a liberal, who will be appointed. when you have a democrat did president, it makes sense that prayer is standing down. i think rpg should have done the same thing. supreme courtjustices are there for life. it's a very politcised court and we know that america is a very, very divided country. people will have to travel great expense. that is something that, unfortunately, a lot of it will need to social division further. it will need to social division further. ., ., ., ., will need to social division further. ., ._, ., ., further. it lead to a lot on twitter, _ further. it lead to a lot on twitter, definitely. - further. it lead to a lot on twitter, definitely. a - further. it lead to a lot on twitter, definitely. a bit l further. it lead to a lot on| twitter, definitely. a bit of further. it lead to a lot on i twitter, definitely. a bit of a spite going on in terms of ali's thoughts when it comes to ruth bader

cambridge, massachusetts or new york or la or san francisco, or other places. there are many places that have a very different view and they're perfectly entitled to. much more conservative, while it religiously driven, and we know in the american political system, the g word, which you remember, we could never mention the word of god in british politics, is not the case in america. there are a lot more conservatives in certain parts of the us, and this is been reflected now in the supreme court. just to underline this point, donald trump appointed three supreme court justices. that is a lot. george w. bush, obama and clinton only had two each. when you have that right of influence in a court, whether those people are there for life, you have a situation where they wield extreme power and this is the outcome that

you're now witnessing. let’s power and this is the outcome that you're now witnessing.— you're now witnessing. let's focus in on those _ you're now witnessing. let's focus in on those justices. _ you're now witnessing. let's focus in on those justices. the - you're now witnessing. let's focus in on those justices. the times i you're now witnessing. let's focus | in on those justices. the times has got a little bit of a biography of some of those justices, and it touches upon it and brings out what you were saying earlier, that before the ruling on friday, some of these justices that appeared less hostile to roe versus wade blue people could be forgiven for believing what was said. we've also got _ for believing what was said. we've also got twojustices for believing what was said. we've also got two justices on the court, clarence _ also got two justices on the court, clarence thomas 's, who was accused of sexual— clarence thomas 's, who was accused of sexual harassment, discussing pornography involving rape with someone — pornography involving rape with someone who worked with him and they denied _ someone who worked with him and they denied it _ someone who worked with him and they denied it. and brett cavanaugh, who was accused of sexual assault and

crossing state lines to have abortions, even though it might not be allowed in there state. —— in their states. that could be discussed federally, and i think protection should be granted. certain states will good on the road, and others will allow it. but you should not penalise people or criminalise them if in a country which the us is, albeit a federal system, that people then get prosecuted for crossing state lines to exercise this right. i think that would be very misplaced. i to exercise this right. i think that would be very misplaced.- would be very misplaced. i think it's auoin would be very misplaced. i think it's going to _ would be very misplaced. i think it's going to be _ would be very misplaced. i think it's going to be pored _ would be very misplaced. i think it's going to be pored over i would be very misplaced. i think it's going to be pored over by i would be very misplaced. i think| it's going to be pored over by the lawyers for quite some time to come. let's go on to uk politics. the telegraph. borisjohnson, is he potentially... as i reading this right? the paper is suggesting he could there is a movement for him to face a vote of no—confidence?

thought they would win in the by—elections, i have the doubt. i think it's not going to make any real difference. borisjohnson is seen as a vote winner. reaches parts of other tories could not. he won two mx —— elections as mayor of london. you've got former leaders such as william hague, michael howard, both calling for the prime minister and both of them know a thing or two about losing elections and the pain that that brings. at the moment, ifeel that a conservative party are heading towards a minority labour government. the only saving grace at the moment is that keir starmer, despite his win in wheatfield, has not sealed the deal with the voters —— wakefield. the bigger problem for the tories is there is no grand narrative. mps sidling up to the

prime minister to confer for their areas. you can see this with the northern research group. they had a convention where they were very upsetting that for my minister that they did not come —— upset the prime minister did not come. the problem for the prime minister is all factions within the tory party... you have ian duncan smith who want tax but —— tax cuts. there is no grand narrative. leveling up is all fine, but you have a 400 billion overhang from covid, so leveling up won't bring any benefits in the next two years. that's where the tories are vulnerable. in a seat like tiverton, as long as you can remember, is that they're also now vulnerable. if i was in a seat like dominant rob, less than 3000

as an entity, it's so useful. —— it's still. you still have other countries coming into the commonwealth. rwanda and mozambique were not former members when it started, but they seek value in it. there are some issues around accounting on how it's managed. coming in for quite a lot of criticism lately. but there is certain value in bringing together both developing and developed patients. very different from g7 and nato, etc, so i think the future is still there. but i do think charles is reflecting a reality in a very pragmatic way that he would. what is reflecting a reality in a very pragmatic way that he would. what do ou think, pragmatic way that he would. what do you think, susie? _ pragmatic way that he would. what do you think, susie? is _ pragmatic way that he would. what do you think, susie? is there _ pragmatic way that he would. what do you think, susie? is there a _ pragmatic way that he would. what do you think, susie? is there a future? i you think, susie? is there a future? is it about, very quickly,

but for now, goodnight. hello. plenty of fine weather around this weekend, but showers in the forecast, too. however, some of us may miss them altogether and end up with a dry weekend, but i will add that around coastal areas, it could be windy at times and feel a little on the cool side. now, this changeable weather is brought by an area of low pressure which will basically park itself over ireland. it's already arrived and the showers are becoming more frequent across some western areas — that is, they will be through the course of the next 24 hours. now, we've had some showers in the last few hours. they will continue through early saturday morning across parts of western scotland, but generally speaking, it's a dry end to the night for many of us with clear spells. and with temperatures ranging from around 10—15 degrees,

so not particularly cold first thing in the morning. so, let's have a look at the forecast for saturday, then. here's our area of low pressure. with clouds and showers swirling around, this is a cool atlantic breeze, so around these coastal areas of cornwall, devon, around the coasts of wales, the irish sea and into scotland, it will be chilly, temperatures around 15—16 degrees in some spots. basically, the further east you are, the sunnier and warmer it'll be. and remember, out towards the west, always a chance of catching some showers, even some heavy ones — notjust through the afternoon, but into the evening — and they'll have a tendency to drift northwards, carried by that breeze circling this area of low pressure. that was saturday, this is sunday, and look at this — even some persistent rain for a time expected in northern ireland and around some of these western parts of the uk. further east, drier and brighter and, in fact, in east anglia and the southeast and probably along the south coast of england, it should be a mostly sunny day on sunday. here, temperatures up to 23 degrees in one or two spots,

but more typically, we're talking about the mid or high teens a little bit further towards the west. and this low pressure is still with us early next week, but what happens is it actually moves away and another one takes its place, bringing spells of rain to western parts of the uk once again. so, overall, we are in a spell of fairly unsettled weather. here's the outlook for some of our major cities, and you can see the further north and west you are, the more changeable it is with these showers. the best of the weather will always be further south and southeast. have a good weekend.

this is bbc news — i'm krupa padhy — with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. the us supreme court overturns the landmark roe versus wade ruling — ending the constitutional right to an abortion — that dates back nearly 50 yea rs. the historicjudgement will transform abortion rights in america — with individual states now able to ban or restrict the procedure. critics say the ruling is a major set—back to a woman's 'right to choose'. president biden has strongly condemned the decision. the court literally taking america back 150 years. that is a sad day for the country but it does not mean the fight is over.
