this is bbc news, the headlines the us supreme court has issued a ruling limiting the government's ability to regulate emissions from power plants. the decision is a significant blow to president biden�*s efforts to tackle climate change. president biden says russia is paying a very heavy price for invading ukraine and will not be able to defeat it. speaking at the end of a nato summit in madrid, he said the war would not end — with russia defeating ukraine. the indonesian president, joko widodo, says he delivered a note from president zelensky of ukraine to russian president vladimir putin, after meeting the two leaders on consecutive days. japan is continuing to endure a heatwave which has seen the highestjune temperatures since records began well over a century ago.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster and journalist james lewer — and claire cohen who's women's editor at the telegraph. tomorrow's front pages, starting with the guardian leads with the news that conservative deputy chief whip, chris pincher, has resigned after he allegedly groped two men at a private members club last night. the front page of the telegraph has the same story, with the tory mp apologising in his resignation letter saying he "drank far too much". the financial times reports on mounting pressure on sterling, as trade figures drop to the worst level on record.

11:39 pm
goes against the pay raises and spiralling out of control inflation. this is off the back of some official figures published today that more than 2 million people are paying extra tax brackets in the borisjohnson which is not a good look friend that he is repeatedly promised to cut taxes and this is what happened on his watch and the backbenchers are growing impatient and if called on him to give tax cuts greater priority than infrastructure change. so, growing discontent here. one that he needs to electrify voters to buy election losses. ., , , to electrify voters to buy election losses. . , , ., losses. the tax burden must and will come down — losses. the tax burden must and will come down is _ losses. the tax burden must and will come down is what _ losses. the tax burden must and will come down is what he _ losses. the tax burden must and will come down is what he said _ losses. the tax burden must and will come down is what he said and - losses. the tax burden must and will come down is what he said and this i come down is what he said and this is one of the options on the table. we look ahead to that estimate those put together just a few weeks ago, looking at the fact that inflation

at this autumn could rise to 11%, somethings got to happen, and got to be done by the treasury is saying this could actually fuel it further. they are indeed initiatives touched on, they are indeed initiatives touched on. there's— they are indeed initiatives touched on, there's a lot of infighting between _ on, there's a lot of infighting between facets of the conservative party over — between facets of the conservative party over this at the moment and, you know. — party over this at the moment and, you know, the conservatives in their bones— you know, the conservatives in their bones are _ you know, the conservatives in their bones are a — you know, the conservatives in their bones are a low tax party and there's— bones are a low tax party and there's a _ bones are a low tax party and there's a lot of pressure on lots of people _ there's a lot of pressure on lots of people within the party on boris johnson — people within the party on boris johnson to cut taxes that are the highest — johnson to cut taxes that are the highest rates since the 1940s piece in the _ highest rates since the 1940s piece in the times alludes to in you, somewhere, it has to give but ultimately, financially, economically at this particular policy— economically at this particular policy leads, it can be good or bad, really. _ policy leads, it can be good or bad, really. in _ policy leads, it can be good or bad, really, in terms of inflation but yeah. — really, in terms of inflation but yeah. i— really, in terms of inflation but yeah, i think somewhere along the line, yeah, i think somewhere along the line. boris— yeah, i think somewhere along the line, borisjohnson has to make a call that— line, borisjohnson has to make a call that clearly, el has a lot of

(is a: yet, the fact that he's keeping the whip is going to potentially be very problematic and it doesn't send a very strong message. there have been questions and debates over the years of the sexual improprieties that have come forward and allegations of been made over whether or not mps should keep the whip until found guilty but you have him admitting his wrongdoing and still keeping the whip. it's worth saying that his area that has been a political bellwether. so i believe boris johnson been a political bellwether. so i believe borisjohnson would not be too keen for that to happen. we could spend a night out here now listening to the number of mps that
11:46 pm
have committed sexual improprieties of varying degrees. this is clearly part of a pattern that started and immersed in 2017, with the scandal and despite measures being put in place, procedures and training and codes of conduct, clearly there is still a huge cultural problem in westminster that is not being tackled these incidents are being treated as isolated cases. we need to make sure that this isn't happening. the front page of the yorkshire post. north yorkshire plans to wage further taxing prices. there are many approaches to try to clamp down on the negative impacts of this is having on areas, isn't it was an interesting piece, premiums, the government thinks that's a way of raising more funding and i suppose,
11:47 pm
whether it will deter people from buying second homes in local areas and make more second homes available to those who live in those local areas but ultimately, right now, the government feels like this can be a good approach and certainly that part of the world and north yorkshire, it is going to be a strategy that is being laid out, yeah. the highest number of second homes in the region with concerns that the trend is undermining the availability of housing for local people but also, claire, impacting on local businesses and a very attractive market for those looking to invest money, isn't it? yes attractive market for those looking to invest money, isn't it?— to invest money, isn't it? yes it is and its the — to invest money, isn't it? yes it is and its the screws _ to invest money, isn't it? yes it is and its the screws he _ to invest money, isn't it? yes it is and its the screws he repeated - to invest money, isn't it? yes it is and its the screws he repeated all| and its the screws he repeated all of the country. a region that grabs headlines during the course of the postpartum period proved to be a huge boom area for state acacia

nurse and it really starts to show how many people on second a teddy mccombs in that area and the tension is because residents and the impact does have on the housing crisis and various other issues in local areas where there's houses prep sitting empty or being used as holiday lets and so, we often see that area, but north yorkshire is in there also were this is happening and raising council taxes mr suggests it can be used to tackle homelessness and other issues i think a lot of people find that a very attractive proposal of it's rinsing the previously when yorkshire tried to push something similar to this through, it did not happen because not all of the eight regions agreed and even if this law, this comes a 501pm into 2026. white of 45% increase over years. by,

11:51 pm
is through to the third round, as is women's world number one iga swiatek. plenty of success too for the remaining brits in this years competition. 0n centre court this afternoon there was a a stunning victory for wildcard katie boulter. she produced a fantastic fightback to beat last years runner—up karolina pliskova. she lost the first set but came back to seal a 3—6; 7—6; 6—4 win. she was very emotional afterwards, dedicating the win to her gran, who she revealed died just two days ago. oh, god. i'm going to get emotional! my gran passed away two days ago and i would just like to dedicate this to her today. it's very difficult for anybody in that circumstance but i think to have the match to look forward to is one way you can put your head in the _ place to come out and give a performance like that. her grandpa and her mum
11:52 pm
were there today and i think that gives her extra meaning to get the victory today. meanwhile heather watson has matched her best wimbledon singles performances. she's through to the third round after beating wang qiang earlier. she only needed one game today to wrap up a 7—5 6—4 victory in a match halted by darkness yesterday. she'll face slovenian kaja juvan on friday. it was a great day too for liam broady. like boulter, he's a wildcard at this years championships, but he came from two sets to one down to beat argentine 12th seed diego schwartzman. a phenomenal victory for broady who is ranked 117 places below schwartzman, this is his best run at a major. it's been a summer of emergence for britain's numberfourjack draper, but the 20 year old lost in four sets to the 19th seed from australia alex di minaur. draper's moved into the world's top 100 with his grass performances at queen's and eastbourne, but exits wimbledon at the second round stage on court number one.
11:53 pm
england's women have wrapped up their preparations for the home european championships with a convincing 4—0 win away to switzerland. all eyes now to the tournament opener next week at old trafford against austria. jo currie watched the match for us in zurich. the signs have been good for england going into the euros, 30 matches and beaten with just one more challenge to go. in this sun, fans took the chance to see their teams in action one more time before waving them off. the players had one last chance to take a claim for starting place. perhaps it was the heap of both sides made a sluggish start. testing the swiss keeper, that is saying a lackluster first 45 minutes. in front of a record cloud ofjust 10,000, they started the second half better, finally finding a breakthrough rachel with the highball and russo
11:54 pm
with the header. it took a penalty for england to score again and lauren had a cracking initial effort in and then stepping up to put the ball away. england claimed the line and third moments later and started to ramp up the pace before substitute jill scott making her 157th england appearance rounded off the night with a memorable goal and celebrations to match. once we got a couple of balls, we just went off from there. and yeah, we've had a brilliant camp and just raring to go now. the next time the lionesses step out, it will be a packed house at old trafford for the tournament opener against austria and just six days' time but once again, all i had to be on the all eyes to be on the england team
11:55 pm
carrying the hopes of a nation. it's been a really frustrating day at taunton. the rain bringing an early end to the final days play in the one—off test between england's women and south africa. the match was drawn. two heavy showers meant only 43 overs of play were possible, leaving south africa 181—5, 48 ahead and with england denied the opportunity of a run chase. i think mainly it's been rain that has ment the test matches have played haven't come to the big crescendo as you expect, that they gives a good performance is both teams like to push the game forward. i'm pretty clear in my opinion we play—test so if you would so sparsely and i think it should be five days to try to make a result. elsewherejos buttler has been confirmed as england's new white—ball captain. the wicketkeeper replaces world cup—winning captain eoin morgan, who retired from international cricket this week. buttler was morgan's vice—captain and has previously led england in nine one—day internationals and five twenty20s.
