this is bbc news. welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the daily mirror columnist, susie boniface, and ali miraj, who's a columnist at the article. bringing up to date on tomorrow's front pages. daily mail's headline "wish you weren't here" — as friday's lengthy queues stretch for miles towards the port of dover causing major delays for one of the busiest holiday weekends. the mirror covers the blame game that's erupted from the gridlock. the port of dover said they'd been "let down" by french authorities. but france says the blame lies with an incident in the channel tunnel. the ft describes the dover delays as an anglo—french row over

post—brexit border controls. (ani)the telegraph quotes the foreign the telegraph quotes the foreign secretary liz truss telling french officials to fix the travel chaos. the express leads on a poll which says conservative leadership hopeful liz truss could beat the labour's sir keir starmer in a general election. the eye weekend claims ms truss is distancing herself from her economy guru professor patrick minford over her tax policies. and the times focusses on rival rishi sunak, warning of a national crisis over the economy, the nhs and illegal immigration. writes, let's kick off with the guardian, please.— writes, let's kick off with the guardian, please. well, this is liz truss potentially _ guardian, please. well, this is liz truss potentially looking - guardian, please. well, this is liz truss potentially looking to - guardian, please. well, this is liz truss potentially looking to have l truss potentially looking to have a bonfire of eu regulations that are about 2&00 of these things with fear

is over what this would mean for employment rates and human rights in this country. she has been very blunt about the fact that she is positioning herself as an arch brexit tier having voted remaining in the referendum —— brexiteer. and it is now the mixer to —— or to exeter. something thatjacob rees mike had originally alluded to which is to remove all of these regulations and to also potentially lead to the loss of civil servants that have been in play to kind of deal with these regulations over time thousands of civil servants could potentially can use jobs. there are fears about it, but she is using this as another tool to position herself with the trade membership ahead of this leadership ballad that is going to happen in a few weeks' time.— ballad that is going to happen in a few weeks' time. ~ ., ., ,, ., ~ ., few weeks' time. what do you make of this? it's a kind _ few weeks' time. what do you make of this? it's a kind of _ few weeks' time. what do you make of this? it's a kind of standard _ this? it's a kind of standard promise, isn't it? from incoming

stuff, and rishi sunak has been very blunt about it. he's been very clear that he wants to have big bang 2.0, a reference to the 1986 liberalisation reform stat led to the big bang in the city and unleashed growth in the city. that's what he wants to achieve. lino boris johnson himself has been concerned about the fact that it's been some difficulty reform this regulation around insurance companies and what they can do in relation to infrastructure investment. rishi sunak being an x city banker and next hedge fund guy, goldman sachs trained mba from stanford knows a thing or two about finance, and wants to unleash that so that there is this brexit dividend that we have heard so much about which, we have yet to see. heard so much about which, we have et to see. ., ~ , heard so much about which, we have et to see. . ,, , ., ., ., yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc, yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc. if — yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc. if you — yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc, if you wait. _ yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc, if you wait. a _ yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc, if you wait. a row- yet to see. take us to the front of the ftc, if you wait. a row over i the ftc, if you wait. a row over post—brexit border checks. a holiday getaway. this post-brexit border checks. a holiday

to have it stamped now, physical stamp has to be put in, but they always use to have to check your passport anyway. the neck but they didn't have to be stamped. the stamping process takes that much longer, fair enough, i understand the point you are making. the issue here is much deeper as well, which is there is a breakdown in the relations between the uk and france, which is not only hear the latest incarnation of x, the french are saying that we don't have enough border staff for french people coming on holiday to the uk, and we are arguing the same. you look at all the issues of the northern ireland protocol, without whole negotiation going on going, and now as to introduce legislation, which liz truss is bringing into parliament to continue and ignore the northern ireland protocol and just make it work in the way that we think it should, and also the ongoing issues on migrant channel

crossings, which despite the money that's been given to the french has naturally worked and links into the whole rowenta policy. so i think relations are not good anyway. we need to get to a situation where people can go on holiday on both sides and we don't have people waiting several hours in their cars with the ceo of the porch declaring a critical incident. it's no fun for anyone on a holiday that people are going on for the first time in many cases in two years.— cases in two years. take us if you went to the _ cases in two years. take us if you went to the back _ cases in two years. take us if you went to the back page _ cases in two years. take us if you went to the back page of - cases in two years. take us if you went to the back page of the - went to the back page of the telegraph, the sport section. moving to ban trans players. up to a point, but explain the story.— but explain the story. basically, the ru:b but explain the story. basically, the rugby football— but explain the story. basically, the rugby football union - but explain the story. basically, the rugby football union has i but explain the story. basically, i the rugby football union has taken soundings and is going to ballot its counsel and is recommending that transgender players should not be allowed to play in women's football, basically that's the thing. some people who are biologically born as

males should not be allowed to play in the women's game. it doesn't apply the other way around, so if you were born a female and you want to play in the men's game, that's ok provided you sign a certain declaration to that effect, and this is apparently following the guidance from the world rugby organisation before. so this is a very emotive, controversial issue in general, but i think different sporting bodies and we have seen it in other sports as well having to make these decisions based on scientific evidence they have today and based on fairness in terms of ability, weight, powerand on fairness in terms of ability, weight, power and strength, which is all argued about that you require before puberty. this is a very emotive and controversial area, but this is what they are stating quite clearly and i think a lot of people would find it is an issue of fairness and this is not to disrespect trans people at all in any way, but this is what the rfq is

going to recommend to its counsel. rugby is dangerous enough that they are all of the same gender. if you start putting in people that are bigger or smaller than the other players, you are going to have some real issues. the general public, when it is surveyed about trans issues, doesn't think there is a big problem with things like gender—neutral toilets and being more reasonable and nicer to people and having good manners, if you like, to everybody else regardless of any differences or how they may or may not identify. british people do not, generally, see this as a culture war that some politicians do. however, in sports, the surveys show that british people do generally think you need to have some parity of competitiveness, which is to have male categories, female on the cat dashed categories and perhaps some kind of open category somewhere in the middle where people who are transforming people who wish to compete on different formats, if you like, or on different grounds, for example if

you have pear olympians competing against able to pop up —— abled bodied people, that might be a way through some of the issues. there are some sportswear if you have been through a different gendered puberty, it may not have a huge impact on what it is you are doing. but then there are others like rugby which are contact games and violence. _ which are contact games and violence, where _ which are contact games and violence, where it _ which are contact games and violence, where it obviously makes a difference _ violence, where it obviously makes a difference to muscle mass and things like that _ difference to muscle mass and things like that. you have got to rely on science _ like that. you have got to rely on science on— like that. you have got to rely on science on this, but the science is patchy _ science on this, but the science is patchy it — science on this, but the science is patchy. it is — science on this, but the science is patchy. it is fairly recent. these are fairly — patchy. it is fairly recent. these are fairly new developments, and it is taking _ are fairly new developments, and it is taking a — are fairly new developments, and it is taking a long time for sports to -et is taking a long time for sports to get its _ is taking a long time for sports to get its head around how to deal with it. y get its head around how to deal with it.- fundamentally, - get its head around how to deal with it.- fundamentally, most i it. sorry... fundamentally, most --eole it. sorry... fundamentally, most peeplejust _ it. sorry... fundamentally, most peeple just want _ it. sorry... fundamentally, most people just want to _ it. sorry... fundamentally, most people just want to be _ it. sorry... fundamentally, most people just want to be nicer i it. sorry... fundamentally, most people just want to be nicer to i people just want to be nicer to everybody else. theyjust think it's a case _ everybody else. theyjust think it's a case of— everybody else. theyjust think it's a case of good manners. if you identify— a case of good manners. if you identify as _ a case of good manners. if you identify as male, female, pink, green, — identify as male, female, pink, green, blue, nobody minds. live your life, green, blue, nobody minds. live your life. we— green, blue, nobody minds. live your life. we will— green, blue, nobody minds. live your life, we will live our lives. that's most _ life, we will live our lives. that's most people's attitudes. the issue of competitive sport does have to crack _ of competitive sport does have to crack this— of competitive sport does have to crack this is not somehow or

advantage in a sporting situation where fairness and equity, naming him he could argue, well, some women are a lot bigger than other women and where do you draw the line? but this is an ongoing evolutionary thinking and this is what the rfq has decided, and i think in this case we can understand it. where do we to with case we can understand it. where do we go with someone _ case we can understand it. where do we go with someone like _ case we can understand it. where do we go with someone like michael- we go with someone like michael phelps _ we go with someone like michael phelps who has got genetic advantages over any other swimmer because _ advantages over any other swimmer because he — advantages over any other swimmer because he has got webbed toes, double—jointed and supermassive feet? _ double—jointed and supermassive feet? way to with someone who was born fema. — feet? way to with someone who was born fema, lives female and only found _ born fema, lives female and only found out — born fema, lives female and only found out when people started criticising her because of the way she looked at actually she has some internal— she looked at actually she has some internal testes but she hadn't previously known about but may have influenced _ previously known about but may have influenced the way she developed. the whole — influenced the way she developed. the whole point about elite sport is that it _ the whole point about elite sport is that it is _ the whole point about elite sport is that it is filled with people who are freakishly different in some way, _ are freakishly different in some way, and — are freakishly different in some way, and that gives them a competitive advantage. i could take the plane _ competitive advantage. i could take the plane but when you start saying

it's going to be an extremely tough game for us. england had been amazing so far in this tournament. i know all the players, they are extremely talented players. so we are going to have to be really onyx. so now is about recovering, getting fresh again and taking them on on tuesday. cricket now. england's men thrashed south africa by 118 runs to level their one day international cricket series. with the game reduced to just 29 overs per side due to rain at old trafford, england struggled at first with the bat but liam livingstone helped lead the recovery as they set a target of 202. but south africa's run chase never got started, losing their first four wickets forjust six runs including a remakable run out by england captain jos butler. moeen ali finished the job as south africa were all out forjust 83. it sets up a series decider at headingley on sunday.

england's former top order batter — jonathan trott is the new head coach of afghanistan. he replaces another former england international — graham thorpe who was admitted to hospital with a serious illness in may. since retiring in 2018, trott has worked as a batting coach with england and as warwickshire's assistant coach. his first task is afghanistan's 5 match 20/20 series against ireland next month. rugby league now. there were two games in rugby league's super league tonight — hull kr fought back to beat warrington 30 points to 22 and at hull fc after starting well they were crushed by a rampant castleford — who scored eight tries — de—rrel olpherts with four of them in the 116—18 victory. it's hull's third defeat in four. ferrari's carlos sainz was quickest in practise for this weekend's formula one french grand prix but the spaniard will have at least, a ten place grid penalty in the race for using too many engine parts. ferrari were forced to repair his car after it caught fire at the last race. sainz could end up starting sunday's

race from the back of the grid if more bits are changed. he was a tenth of a second quicker than his team—mate charles leclerc. championship leader max verstappen was third. george russell was the quickest british driver in fourth. it's taken 19 stages, but there's finally been a home victory in a stage at the tour de france. christophe laporte held off the peloton to pick—up his first grand tour stage win and his team's fifth in the race this year. there was no change in the overall lead though withjonas vingergo expected to secure the overall victory in tomorrow's time trial. britain's geraint thomas remains third overall. brooke henderson became the first lpga player to card successive rounds of 64 in a major — to take the lead at the evian championship at the half way stage. the canadian made eight birdies on day two to move to 111 under par — three shots ahead of the us olympic champion nelly korda. the best british player so far

is charley hull on seven under. arsenal have signed a second player from manchester city this summer — this time ukrainian left back — oleksandr zinchenko. the 25—year—old, who plays in midfield for his country, has signed for 30 million pounds on a long term contract. zinchenko said it's a boyhood dream come true because he was a massive fan of arsenal as a child. sadio mane has told the bbc that he left liverpool because he needs a new challenge. the forward, who was yesterday named african footballer of the year, joined bayern munich last month after six seasons at anfield. i spoke with the coach one year ago, and i talked to him about it. my desire to move, for me, it was the right choice, it wasn't just from last year, and i took my decision to leave, because i need a new challenge in my life. if you see my story, i came from a small town, a small village, my life has changed.

i went to be challenged all the time, and i took my decision. so far, i think it's the best decision i have taken in my career, because today i'm with one of the best clubs in the world. manchester united manager erik ten hag says there's no change to cristiano ronaldo's situation at the club. the portuguese star hasn't started pre—season training due to a "personal issue". it's thought he wants to play champions league football next season. meanwhile ten hag has also reacted to harry maguire being booed by some fans on the club's pre—season tour. we heard and we see that if you perform, it slows down, and i think he was 13. i'm impressed by the way they play, i don't think it's a matter to find out if i can understand it. it's about how can we change

the team and himself by performing? the president of world athletics — lord coe has said future championships could be moved to protect athletes from extreme heat. he voiced concerns over safety after temperatures hit 32 degrees c at the world championships in oregon this week, and after extreme weather in europe. climate change, it is not going to disappear, even some of the more visible targets that have been sent by governments are not going to make any difference. we have to recognise that we may have to do things in our own way to protect the athletes from heat conditions. and that's all the sport for now. hello. well, the weather's going to be a bit of a mixed bag this weekend for some of us.

some rain, some sunshine. but we do need the rain for our parched gardens. this is what it looks like through the early hours. rain approaching northern ireland, but much of the country dry at this stage and not particularly cold — 16 celsius at 7am in london, around about 13 celsius in newcastle. so bright start across the bulk of the uk, but then that cloud and rain reaches western areas, and this is where most of the rain will fall, although it will be pretty hit and miss, most of it, actually, in western parts of scotland. top temperatures will be in east anglia and the southeast, up to around 26 celsius. and then if you have any plans for saturday night, well, the outbreaks of rain will wax and wane. they'll continue across western areas, but it stays dry across the eastern counties and further southeast. and the forecast into sunday, turning hot temporarily in east anglia and then after that, a little cooler.

this is bbc news. i'm kasia madera with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. steve bannon, the former aide to president trump, faces jail after being found guilty of contempt of congress. he tells reporters he remains defiant. the prosecutor missed one very important phrase. i stand with trump and the constitution, and i will never back off of that, ever. ukraine and russia sign a deal allowing the resumption of ukrainian grain exports from ports on the black sea. we report from the farms on the front line in the donbas. a deal to end russia's blockade could make a huge difference, but it won't end the war. so, here in the donbas, ukrainian farmers are racing to harvest and to store what they can, whatever the risks.
