hello and welcome. how did the bbc news app six miss breaking live the resignations of two cabinet ministers on tuesday? and why you really need to stay ready for action when you are the standby presenter in this studio? —— the bbc news app six. this week's extraordinary stand—off between borisjohnson and his conservative colleagues in parliament began on tuesday evening with the resignations of rishi sunak and sledgerjaved. emerging as they did shortly after six o'clock, it would normally have been for the news at six to break the news immediately, but those tuning in to watch the programme instead found it had been postponed, with tennis being shown on both bbc one and bbc two. it was almost 6.20 before the main bbc channel got to report what had happened.

paula, sue and stephen. we asked to speak to someone about the decision to postpone the news on tuesday, and more widely the practice of live sports events displacing news bulletins, but our invitation was declined. instead we were given this statement. by by thursday morning, bbc one had joined forces to simulcast with the news channel and so was able to

it's no surprise that events in downing street have dominated the bbc news output this week, and although other stories have been covered, some viewers feel some of them haven't featured prominently enough. and later that day, the 17th anniversary of the july 7th bomb attacks anniversary of thejuly 7th bomb attacks in london. it's about to get hectic... another

information request about westwood's conduct made by its own news division. the decision was challenged and the new details about complaints then emerged. the bbc now says an internal inquiry is ongoing, and that the director—general had set out the position as he understood it at the time. this is what a spokesperson said in april. we hope to discuss all of this with the bbc, but we were told that is not possible at this time. we hope to return to the subject, but in the meantime, comments from viewers.

ona on a happier note, there was a big response on social media last week on this bbc one news bulletin. goad on this bbc one news bulletin. good afternoon, boris _ on this bbc one news bulletin. good afternoon, boris johnson _ on this bbc one news bulletin. (13mm afternoon, borisjohnson says he will not undergo what he calls a psychological transformation of his character. speaking to the bbc, the prime minister insisted policy was more important than personality. so what was it about that parent that made it go viral? it was the presenter�*s hair style, which prompted messages of support. the presenter, who said she was told her afro textured hair was to ethnic when she first started working at the bbc, tweeted...

a fair amount of cloud out there as we go through the night and into tomorrow morning. and particularly towards northern scotland, we'll see things turning wetter on saturday. in fact, by the end of the day, some of these outbreaks of rain you can see moving in will be getting heavier. but elsewhere, in the clouds towards the north and west of scotland, for northern ireland, you could see a spot of light rain. sunny spells eastern and southern scotland and across much of england and wales, though not necessarily clear blue sky. and it's here temperatures after heating up on friday will take a little bit of a step backwards, but still feel very warm. not the hottest finals weekend at wimbledon, but it will feel hot. certainly on centre court, there will be plenty of sunshine. it will be dry out there, and this is the area of high pressure slap bang across us on sunday. deflecting rain—bearing weather fronts even further to the north, it's really towards the northern isles on sunday, especially into shetland by the afternoon. not as breezy as it's been in scotland, more places here and in northern ireland seeing some sunny spells and feeling warmer as a result. and temperatures on the up again through england and wales, near 30 in the hot spots here.

so, that heatwave starting and lasting through monday and tuesday in many areas of england, parts of wales, as we see another day of lots of sunshine. we will see a weather front approaching north west scotland late on monday, eventually bringing some outbreaks of rain here. and it's that weather front which eventually is going to sweep southwards and take cooler air southwards as the week goes on. but for monday into tuesday, we are talking about a couple of days of temperatures into the low 30s towards the south east of england before this weather front eventually moves on through. so, a very warm start actually to the week, too, across parts of scotland and northern ireland. turning cooler here, temperatures dipping below average for the time of year. cooler, too, for wales and england eventually, although the further south you are, it'll stay very warm.

house to have it as federal law. your vote can make that a reality.
