good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and ben thompson. our headlines today. more energy price increases. predictions seen by this programme suggest typical bills will go up to more than £3000 in the autumn, and rise even further next year. with the latest results from oil and gas giant bp in an hour, we'll look at why those soaring bills mean big profits for the energy companies. killed in a us drone strike, ayman al—zawahiri, one of the masterminds of the 9—11 attacks and leader of al-qaeda. so, i've had filler in my lips, i've had filler in my nose. the impact of body image worries

on mental and physical health. mps call for the issue to be taken more seriously. you are worth more than what you look, you are worth so much more. it's yet another golden moment for dame laura kenny here in birmingham. after overcoming what she called a confidence crisis she wins gold on the final day of track cycling. right, thank you very much for all these. shall we have a look what's in the bags? seven—year—old jessica's mission to use teddy bears to reduce the stigma of stomas. and good morning, a wet start to the day for many of us, but as we head into the afternoon it should dry up foremost, remaining murky across west wales and the south—west and humid once again in the south. all of the details and a bit more later in the programme.

it's tuesday the 2nd of august. our main story. household energy bills could rise even higher than expected this autumn with the price cap set to go up again in october. the energy watchdog 0fgem had previously warned that the average yearly gas bill will be £2,800 but energy analysts cornwall insight have told this programme the figure is likely to be £500 more than that, before rising even more next year. ben's been looking into this for us. in the summer, it's much easier because we don't have to have the heating on, we don't have to use the dryer, i can hang all these clothes on the line. ruth, a mother of two, has already cut back on her energy usage. might have to change some of the way that we do things inside the house, and maybe i'll be out here in the cold pegging the washing on the line. now, news of another hike in energy bills this autumn is putting the pressure on. the latest prediction is that it

will go up in the autumn to £3358 per year for an average household. what are your thoughts on that? i mean, it'sjust frightening, really, because it's such a huge amount of money and you can't get around it. there's things that you can't change, you know, when it's winter, we have to put the heating on, we have to put the lights on. maybe we won't have the heating on as much, maybe we'll have to put extra jumpers on. but there is something that you can't change and you can't stop. i still have to wash the clothes. so it's going to be a challenging winter, i think, for everybody. in april last year, the energy price cap increased, pushing the annual bill for an average household on a variable rate from just over £1000 to 1138. within a year, the price cap had risen to its current level, which puts a typical bill at £1971.

but energy analysts cornwall insight think it will go even higher to more than 3358 this october. and these price rises are expected to continue, with families potentially paying as much as £3729 by this time next year. but while our household bills are soaring, energy firms are making record profits. shell made £9 billion between april and june. british gas owner's centrica profits were five times higher in the first—half of this year compared to the year before. the government says it's providing support worth billions of pounds, including a £400 discount on energy bills for every household in england, scotland and wales. but citizens advice said the number of people seeking help because they can no longer afford to eat and heat their homes has tripled in a year. ben boulos, bbc news.

ben is with us now. we knew energy prices were going up but not only will they go up this year, they will keep going up next year as well, it's suggested?— keep going up next year as well, it's suggested? yes, no sign of the ressure it's suggested? yes, no sign of the pressure easing — it's suggested? yes, no sign of the pressure easing on _ it's suggested? yes, no sign of the pressure easing on household - it's suggested? yes, no sign of the i pressure easing on household energy bills. it is a forecast and a prediction and it could be lower or higher. but cornwall insight is the energy analysts and they tend to be quite good at estimating what will happen. the final decision in terms of the energy price cap for october, we will get that announced by the regulator 0fgem by the end of the month. what we talk about with the energy cap, it's not an absolute cap, it is the cap for if your household uses the average amount of gas and electricity. if your household uses more, your yearly bill could be even higher than this. the other important point to make is that if you're on a fixed tariff,

you will not feel the effects of these price rises immediately but when your tariff comes to an end, thejump will feel even when your tariff comes to an end, the jump will feel even bigger because you have not been subject to the incremental rises that people on variable tariffs have seen as i pointed out in that piece. we have also got the latest figures out from bp, the oil and gas giant, later this morning. these high prices have led to bumper profits, soaring profits for the oil and gas companies like bp, we will find out just how well they have done later. of course, if people are having to of course, if people are having to spend more, an extra £2000 out of their pockets, that will have a knock—on effect everywhere else. yes, ruth was saying that as a family they are having to look at their outgoings and thinking, can they afford a holiday next year as mac or even just day—to—day things, how many of the kids activities can they do? so people are really having to make tough decisions. it

they do? so people are really having to make tough decisions.— to make tough decisions. it does cive ou to make tough decisions. it does give you a _ to make tough decisions. it does give you a sense _ to make tough decisions. it does give you a sense of _ to make tough decisions. it does give you a sense of how- to make tough decisions. it does give you a sense of how this - to make tough decisions. it does| give you a sense of how this plays out. you are going to have those figures at 7am. we will speak to you then. the leader of al-qaeda, who helped plan the 9/11 terror attacks with 0sama bin laden, has been killed in a drone strike in afghanistan. us presidentjoe biden confirmed that ayman al—zawahiri was killed in a counter—terror operation carried out by the cia in kabul on sunday, as our washington correspondent nomia iqbal reports. after decades, america has killed one of its most wanted terrorists. my fellow americans, on saturday, on my direction, the united states successfully concluded an air strike in kabul, afghanistan, which killed the emir of al-qaeda, ayman al—zawahiri. the president said he gave his personal approval to kill ayman al—zawahiri. justice has been delivered, and the terrorist leader is no more. people around the world no longer

need to fear the vicious and determined killer. the united states continues to demonstrate our resolve and our capacity to defend the american people against those who seek to do us harm. you know, we make it clear again tonight that no matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide, if you are a threat to our people in the united states will find you out. if you are a threat to our people in the united states will find you and take you out. it's taken 21 years. 0sama bin laden was the face behind the 9/11 attacks, but al—zawahiri was seen as the brains. officials say his tactics and organisational skills were responsible for the depths of nearly 3000 people. both men were close, appearing in propaganda videos. al—zawahiri was even bin laden's personal physician. the us wanted him dead or alive for $25 million. i think what this reflects is, really, the challenges we have had on our counterterrorism policies where al—zawahiri has been able

to survive for two decades. 0utlasted the afghanistan war in safety, prior to us being able to eliminate him. when bin laden was killed by the americans in 2011, al—zawahiri took over. the president said america hunted him for a year, eventually locating him to a safe house in kabul last weekend. they shot two missiles at him. his family members were unharmed. al—zawahiri was rumoured to be in bad health, becoming a remote figure, and with the rise of other terror groups like the so—called islamic state, his influence was marginal compared to his predecessor. the taliban has called the killing "a violation of international principles". but al—zawahiri's presence in kabul has cast doubt on the taliban's promise its country would not be a haven for terrorists. nomia iqbal, bbc news, washington. the court of appeal has rejected another attempt to stop a hospital

withdrawing life support for archie battersbee, the 12—year—old who was found unconscious at his home in essex in april. the judges said treatment should not continue beyond midday, although the boy's parents could take the case back to the supreme court, as ellie price reports. another court hearing, another crushing disappointment for the family of archie battersbee. doctors say the 12—year—old is brainstem dead and judges from the high court and court of appeal have repeatedly maintained it's in his best interests to switch off life support. but his mother fights on. i have got my son's best interests at heart, and paul, and the siblings. nobody else has got archie's best interests at heart and i say, and i still stand by it, archie's best interests would be to allow that child time to recover. if he doesn't recover, he doesn't recover, but give him time to recover. archie was injured during an incident at home and taken to southend hospital on the 7th of april. after a series of tests, a high courtjudge ruled on the 13th

ofjune that archie is dead, based on mri scan results, and that treatment could be withdrawn. 0n the 20th ofjune, the family asked the court of appeal to reconsider the case and it ruled that a new hearing should take place. that new hearing was held on the 15th ofjuly, and a judge ruled that life—support treatment should end. a decision supported by the court of appeal. thejudge in yesterday's hearing has said that there should be no further postponement of the withdrawal of life support beyond midday today. for archie's parents, their last hope now lies with the supreme court. ellie price, bbc news. liz truss' bid to become the next prime minister has received a boost after her former leadership rival penny mordaunt pledged to back her. the trade minister described ms truss as the "hope candidate" at a leadership hustings event. 0ur political correspondent ione wells joins us now. so we know the ballots have been

sent out, i wonder where this latest intervention leaves the leadership race? figs intervention leaves the leadership race? �* , intervention leaves the leadership race? m intervention leaves the leadership race? a ,., intervention leaves the leadership race? a , ., ., race? as you say it is a bit of a boost for _ race? as you say it is a bit of a boost for liz _ race? as you say it is a bit of a boost for liz truss, _ race? as you say it is a bit of a boost for liz truss, she - race? as you say it is a bit of a boost for liz truss, she has i race? as you say it is a bit of a l boost for liz truss, she has now race? as you say it is a bit of a - boost for liz truss, she has now had three former leadership candidates weigh in and back in this contest and i think the fact that penny mordaunt called her a hope candidate is a sore spot for some rishi sunak allies who have raised some concerns that he has perhaps not had as many stand out optimistic moment in this campaign. some tory mps have characterised these endorsements as a writing on the wall moment where some mps are essentially throwing their weight behind who they say seed to be the frontrunner. having said that, both camps are emphasising that on the ground it feels quite close. liz truss got some applause in the hustings in exeter for things like saying she would ignore nicola sturgeon in scotland, but he also got grilled by some audience members on things like how she would pay for her tax plans. so i think significant that she is not necessarily free from criticism

at the moment in some of these hustings. similarly her plans to reduce regional pay for some public sector workers, some civil servants have —— that has been criticised who have —— that has been criticised who have by people who have accused her of trying to slash the police and nhs ahead of a general election. rishi sunakfeeling quite positive after he got some cheering in the crowd after he was asking a question about his loyalty to borisjohnson. he emphasised he is a change candidate, liz truss had been in cabinet longer than he had and he had supported things like brexit as well that was symbolic of his attitude towards change and reform. i think both candidates pretty happy this morning with the way that the hustings went last night but they still have weeks to go of this campaign and i think the key voters they are hoping to win over other people who are still undecided now that the ballots have gone out.

thank you very much for now. british airways says it will stop selling tickets on short—haulflights from heathrow airport until monday. the move is due to the cap on daily passenger numbers that the airport has imposed over the summer, in an attempt to reduce travel chaos. the sales suspension will affect ba's flights to domestic and european destinations. the england women's football team have been celebrating their historic euros victory with thousands of fans in london's trafalgar square. and the party's continued up and down country, with the lionesses inspiring young girls to follow their footballing dreams. laura tra nt reports. players and fans followed the lead of england manager sarina wiegman who said it was time to party after the lionesses's historic win over germany. the lionesses celebrated in london's trafalgar square with rachel daly grabbing the mic to lead a chorus of river deep, mountain high. # river deep, mountain

high, yeah, yeah. a party that 7000 fans couldn't miss, including the rutland family and friends. mia plays for afc wimbledon and friends jas and aaliyah play for local teams. so seeing their heroes meant the world. this atmosphere is just inspiring and all the players are so inspiring. i think it's good that girls are getting into playing football as well as boys now. ijust can't get my head around it, it's amazing. the lionesses have inspired young girls across the country not to just dream but to believe. in goal, nottingham's mary earps is part of the team inspiring clubhouses across the reason. it shows exactly what women can do, like, to go out through the whole competition, have amazing games, not really lose a single match and then go to the finals and just win it, it's incredible. young footballers hoping to follow in their footsteps have been inspired by the england role models.

at astley and tyldesley girls, where ella toone started playing as an eight—year—old, they have noticed the ella effect. this morning, i've had another girl who wants tojoin. this is the first time in six years that we have never had to advertise for girls to come and join and play football. so we are now absolutely overrun with girls, its superb. i look up to ella toone, and all my friends look up to ella toone, like, it'sjust amazing, really. because it's round here, they'll be speaking about it for ages, how good she is. in hinderwell near whitby, philip was beth mead's first coach from when she started playing football aged five. he is still one of her biggest supporters. we are only a little tiny village amongst lots of little tiny villages, and to have somebody actually winning the european championships is absolutely phenomenal. we are so proud of her. # sweet caroline! in lauren hemp's old club in norfolk, there are girls aspiring to play like their local lioness.

i mean, she's an incredible player and i really look up to her. she's definitely my idol and i want tojust like her someday. the lionesses have fulfilled the dreams of a nation. # sweet caroline! fans will be waiting to see what the next generation can achieve. laura trant, bbc news. got another day of that in your head now! we got another day of that in your head now! ~ . ., , ., , now! we have a new song, river deep mountain high. _ now! we have a new song, river deep mountain high, that _ now! we have a new song, river deep mountain high, that will— now! we have a new song, river deep mountain high, that will get _ now! we have a new song, river deep mountain high, that will get stuck - mountain high, that will get stuck in your head. mountain high, that will get stuck in your head-— in your head. relate to seek everybody — in your head. relate to seek everybody partying - in your head. relate to seek i everybody partying yesterday, fantastic atmosphere in trafalgar square —— it was brilliant to see everybody partying. the square -- it was brilliant to see everybody partying. the weather was aood as everybody partying. the weather was good as well. — everybody partying. the weather was good as well, let's _ everybody partying. the weather was good as well, let's see _ everybody partying. the weather was good as well, let's see what - everybody partying. the weather was good as well, let's see what it - everybody partying. the weather was good as well, let's see what it will i good as well, let's see what it will be like today. it is looking rather wet across many areas, a murky and humid start.

temperatures between 15 and 20 degrees. the rain will ease, it is not going to get into the south, and it will be a humid day generally. you can see a curl of rain, a clutch of weather fronts which have been steadily moving east through the night. heavy and thundery downpours across northern ireland which have transferred into dumfries and galloway, they are sinking south, heavy and thundery across northern england. a murky start in west wales and the south—west, some poor visibility on the coast and hills and in the north—west of scotland. but through the day a lot of the rain will dry up, we will see some sunshine coming through and it will be windy, strongest across the north and west of scotland and also north west wales and the north—west of northern ireland. temperatures 15 in lerwick, most of the rest of us are in mid 20s up to 30 degrees possibly a little bit more in the south—east.

still feeling humid. this evening and overnight, a few showers to start with, a weak front sinking south. that willjust introduce some cloud and the odd spot of rain but not into the south—east. some showers into the north—west, they will merge to bring longer spells of rain. these are the overnight lows, another sticky night. tomorrow we start off with the remnants of the front in the south, not providing much more than cloud, behind it a lot of dry weather and sunshine. just a few showers. tomorrow, the wind changes from south—west which has been bringing all of that mild air to north—west, which is a fresher so it will feel pressure in the northern half of the country but still humid as we push further south. thank you, see you soon. it looks quite nice. let's take a look at today's papers. pictures of the triumphant lionesses feature on most of the front pages. "everyone is buzzing"

is the headline on the guardian as it quotes matchwinner chloe kelly, amid hopes for a lasting legacy. we talked about that yesterday, the change of this could make. "dancing queens" is the headline on the metro which dedicates its front page to these images of the england team celebrating in trafalgar square. the times leads on airline british airways suspending short—haul ticket sales from heathrow. the paper warns that the "unprecedented move" could push up already high prices across the industry. the daily mail leads on a vow from conservative leadership candidate liz truss to call a halt on junk food taxes. the paper quotes her as saying she will scrap proposals for a ban on unhealthy "buy one, get one free" offers. those are this morning's front pages for you. 20 past six. non—surgical cosmetic procedures

like botox and fillers should be better regulated to prevent people who are struggling with their appearance from being exploited. that's one of the recommendations from a health committee report into body image, which has looked into the link between how people feel about the way they look, and their mental health. 0ur correspondent zoe conway reports. when you look at nyome nicholas—williams, what do you see? yeah, beautiful. i can get all of your new tattoos as well! photographer alexandra cameron sees bravery. nyome is a model with influence. she has worked with brands like adidas and boots. but her success has not come easy. growing up, she struggled with how she looked, and developed an eating disorder. i equated my tallness with being my bigness, and i was like, ok, maybe if i could be, like, i could appear shorter and and it's all psychological. it's like what alex said with my inner dialogue, i really struggled to just understand that my body was ok and that i didn't have to be

like the girls in my class and just because i was taller or bigger, that didn't take away from the essence of who i was. but i couldn't understand that at that age and it lasted a long time. she despairs that so many people have a negative view of their body. after being so comfortable with myself for many years, after being so uncomfortable with myself for many years, just for me to be, like, present with who i am, that's all i want. and people, they like that. so obviously i know people want to be more like themselves. and because i am unapologetically myself and i never will change, i think that is what people resonate with. images of so—called perfection are all around us. millions tuned into love island, but of course, it's not the first reality show. the only way is essex first blinged its way onto tv 12 years ago. one of its earliest stars, charlie king. go on, charlie! throughout his life, charlie has struggled with how his body looks and what is called body dysmorphia. it drove him to have cosmetic

surgery on his nose. i went on a plastic surgery journey which i thought was going to be incredible, the making of me. and it was totally the opposite. surgery didn't go to plan, i have had to wait two years to have my nose fixed, and i have had to live with that and that choice, and that has been one of the hardest lessons that i've ever learned, all because i thought i needed to change. he is grateful to the opportunities that towie gave him but he's worried about the effect of reality tv could be having on young people. and when you're being bombarded with it, you don't see diversity, or different sorts of bodies being represented, if we are looking at certain reality tv shows, then what? because that seems to be what sells, that's what's going to get the viewings, that's what's going to get people talking and ultimately that's what's going to be seen as attractive. that's dangerous. a new report by the health select committee is concerned about the impact that body images are having on mental health.

they want to see labelling of digitally altered commercial pictures and regulation for nonsurgical cosmetic procedures within a year. so, i have had filler in my lips, i have had filler in my nose, i've had it on my nose to mouth lines, chin, jawline. i have had filler in my cheeks multiple times. every time kim booker got filler put in her face, she felt euphoric. but the feeling never lasted. she would spend hours on social media looking at adverts for cosmetic surgery. she once had so much filler in her nose, it came close to collapse. she also wants to see more regulation of cosmetic procedures. it's really sad, it's... it'sjust, yeah, it's really, really sad that i have, ijust disliked the way i looked that much at those times.

and it's just everywhere you look, and i still have those moments. it's still something that... because everywhere you look there's this image of perfection. she is now in a much happier phase of life, and she has this message for her younger self. you are worth more than what you look, you're worth so much more. sorry. it's just really, it's just really sad. in a statement, the government spokesperson said, we will be introducing a national licensing scheme to ensure people are making informed and safe choices about nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, that will build on existing support we have put in place from expanding mental health services, including for those body dysmorphic disorder.

alex cameron hopes that her photography can help reframe how we view ourselves and each other. it's so powerful to see a woman like nyome standing up and saying, i'm amazing, which she is, because for too long, society and the world for some reason told her she wasn't and that is the shift that needs to happen, the acceptance, and it is happening. the body positivity movement is huge in that, but so much more needs to be done and people really need to watch themselves online, people need to understand kindness. zoe conway, bbc news. interesting point, people need to understand about being kind, we will be talking about this much more later in the programme. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm asad ahmad. the police watchdog is investigating two further complaints

of metropolitan police officers strip—searching teenagers. this time it's over two 16—year—old boys who were searched in police stations in east london. the independent office for police conduct is already looking into the case of a 15—year—old girl who was strip—searched by officers in a school. noone the metropolitan police says it welcomes advice given by the watchdog. research by a university and the london school of hygiene & tropical medicine suggests thatjunk food advertising restrictions on the london transport network may have prevented almost a hundred thousand cases of obesity. the policy — now in its third year — restricts adverts for foods high in calories and salt. the greatest impact is said to be on people from deprived areas in terms of preventing health conditions. it's exactly two weeks since we experienced the hottest day on record, with temperatures hitting a0 degrees celsius, causing fires across london and the home counties. for dozens of families

who lost their homes, in places like wennington in east london, some people are still looking for a place to live. but the community has also rallied around after a difficult period. there's been shock, there's been grief, anger, even moments of laughter and joy in the midst of if all as well. and then the broader community has been immensely generous. the outpouring of donations has been overwhelming. british airways says it'll stop selling tickets on short haul flights from heathrow until next monday. it's after the airport announced a limit on daily passenger numbers to try to avoid chaos over the summer. the tube board, and a fire alert at stratford this morning is causing severe delays on the elizabeth line between liverpool street and shenfield. now the weather with kate. good morning. it's been quite a humid, uncomfortable night, temperatures for some not dropping

below 20 celsius. today, a couple of cold fronts sinking south. the isobars squeezed together, so it's going to be quite a breezy day. a south—westerly wind. so, some bright spells this morning. then the thicker cloud. you might get a spot of rain, but nothing more significant, dissolving to a certain extent into the afternoon to more sunshine. and temperatures today, again, hot at 30 celsius. now this evening, it's dry and fine. so some evening sunshine ahead of it, setting overnight. variable amounts of clouds, some lengthy, clear spells. the minimum temperature, again, warm and uncomfortable at 18 celsius in central london. another cold front as we head through wednesday. still quite a breezy day tomorrow as well. the cloud in part once again thick enough to produce some spots of rain, but nothing more significant. that cloud dissolves into the afternoon to more sunshine. another warm day, but temperatures perhaps a little cooler than today at 28 celsius. now for the rest of the week, thursday, friday, ridge of high pressure builds, so plenty of fine and dry weather. still no significant rain in the forecast,

and temperatures widely staying in the mid—20s. that's it for now. i'm backjust before seven. bye— bye. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and ben thompson. coming up on breakfast this morning... the celebrations continue. we'll have more on the lionesses' historic euros victory — and what their win could mean for the future of women's football. the summer holidays are here, but with money tight for many, we've been looking at ways you can enjoy a family day out for just a fiver. and we'll hear from one little girl who is raising awareness about living with a stoma. another big day of sport. commonwealth games out can under way. mike is in birmingham with the very

latest from the commonwealth games. it was a glorious start yesterday. a look —— it looks a little damp today. yes, got a little bit wet coming here from the hotel this morning. this is victoria square. quiet at the moment. just myself and a few seagulls. the busiest day of the games so far. 37 gold medals up for grabs. the athletics gets under way at alexandra stadium. as one event starts, another came to a dramatic end — the cycling finished with a gold medalfor laura kenny. here's austin halewood with that, and some of the day's other highlights. after four days without a gold in the velodrome, england's queen of the track reigned supreme once again. in 2012, this was the very spot where laura kenny made her name with two golds in the london olympics.

a decade on, she was back, this time in the women's scratch race — ten kilometres, a0 laps, the first rider across the line wins. so with the finish in sight, she made her move. and with 27 major championship golds already in the bag, she knows exactly how to turn it on in these closing moments. and she's a champion once again! kenny, who almost quit the sport earlier this year, back on top. i have just absolutely lost motivation. and then last night i was messaging my new coach, len, and i was like, "no, i'm not giving up! i'm not giving up on this. i've got one more roll of the dice, please!" and then to cross the line here in london, 0h, ijust — honestly, i couldn't ask for anything more. unlike the velodrome, the gymnastics centre has already seen plenty of english gold, and theyjust keep coming. jake jarman winning his third of these games in the individual floor final, while local lad joe frazer took his second gold,

this time in the pommel horse final, before courtney tulloch and georgia mae fenton both won gold to round off a great day for england. shannon archer leapt into the scottish history books with this vault. it was good enough for bronze — scotland's first ever artistic gymnastics medal at the commonwealth games. the first gold of the day came at the weightlifting, thanks to england's chris murray in the 81 kilo category. he lifted a combined 325 kilograms across his two lifts — about the same weight as your typical grizzly bear. and he couldn't quite believe it. england's maisie summers—newton is currently training to be a teacher, but around her studies, she still manages to be the best in the world in the pool. the world, european and paralympic champion, now completing the set with gold in the women's 100 metres breaststroke sb6. and while it may have finally come home for england's lionesses at the weekend, lucy beere finally ended 28 years of hurt for guernsey

at the commonwealth games. the bowler won a silver medal in the women's singles. with a population ofjust 64,000 — about the same as canterbury — it could just be guernsey's greatest sporting moment. austin halewood, bbc news. wow, what a moment that was, brilliant. there was an historic moment for swimmer duncan scott, who became scotland's most decorated commonwealth athlete. he took his tally to 11 with two bronze medals yesterday. he'd already won gold on saturday so he's having a great games. so, how does all that leave the medals table? england added a massive ten gold medals to their tally yesterday, but they're still second behind australia, scotland stay seventh with two golds. wales are still tenth and northern ireland have dropped a place to 16th.

we have a huge amount to look forward to, with the alexander stadium springing back into life and more action in the pool. the stadium has been transformed after the opening ceremony. adam peaty is still looking for his first gold medal of the games — he tries again later, in the 50 metres breaststroke. barry mcclements goes in the 100 metres butterfly s10 final. he won northern ireland's first ever commonwealth games medal in the pool last week. pole vaulter holly bradshaw will be looking to bounce back from the partial hamstring tendon tear she suffered when her pole snapped at the world championships last month in oregon. this will be her last commonwealth games and she said on social media she was determined to be here. and all four gold medals will be awarded in the 3x3 basketball. now you might have heard there will be break dancing at the olympic games in paris in two years' time. well, yesterday we were one step ahead here in birmingham city centre, with some rake dancing.

this was at the beach volleyball at smithfield market, where they have to rake the sand throughout the day. and the volunteers gave the crowd even more entertainment, performing to that great queen song i want to rake free. absolutely brilliant. that is what it is all about for volunteers. they give all their time, they work so hard. they are so wonderful. they get into the spirit of the games. wherever you go, they give you high fives. we were talking about the importance of dancing yesterday. absolutely fantastic. 0ver importance of dancing yesterday. absolutely fantastic. over to the cube because we saw in that report earlier on an amazing moment in the weightlifting hole. the man who can lift a grizzly bear —— grizzly bear.

he will not have any problems with me, will he? coming up at half past seven. you may remember the enormous reaction we had a couple of months ago, after we filmed with dj adele roberts about what life was like living with a stoma bag. she was incredible, wasn't she? so open, so honest. one little girl was particularly inspired. seven—year—old jessica has had a stoma since she was four, and has since made it her mission to reduce the stigma and raise awareness. graham satchell has been to meet her. seven—year—old jessica, playing in the park with her little sister, penny. everywhere she goes, her bear, buttony, goes with her. i've had him forfour years, and she's a very special bear. why is he special? eh, because, erm, he's got a stoma on his tummy. ah!

someone fell off the ship! jessica was born with a serious bowel condition that meant she struggled to poo. she was in all this pain and we didn't know what was the cause of the pain. and it wasjust before she turned four, they said to give her body a break, a stoma will be the best way forward. it was a real worry. more so ifjessica was going to accept it. jessica had surgery. doctors made an opening in the skin of her tummy, a stoma, to allow her to go to the loo more easily. just before surgery, jessica was given a teddy bear by the charity, a bear named buttony. ifjessica didn't get the buttony bear before she had her surgery, then she wouldn't have accepted it as well as she did. she had the bear about two months before, and she was playing with it. she took it into school. and itjust doesn't help her. it helps everybody to understand what a stoma is as well.

for the last few years, jessica has been raising money. she wants more children to be able to get a buttony bear before their surgery. people might not know what a stoma is, and they might be going in to get one and they might be wondering, what is a stoma? and they might be a bit worried about it. but do you think there's anything to worry about? no. because you can still do anything. right. oh, thank you very much for all these. shall we have a look what's in the bags? i yeah? jessica has come to drop off the latest batch of teddies at alder hey hospital. i'll tell you what, shall we take it off so it's easier? _ yeah, take the little bag off? we can see the teddy- with the stoma, can't we? 0h, jessica's brilliant _ with what she does, supplying us with the teddy bears and the books. and she gets out there and just promotes how positive life - can be with a stoma. a few years ago, it was a big stigma having a stoma. - people thought it was smelly and it was horrible. - they don't realise the benefits of it. j but with people like jessica being out there and some i

of the celebrities have had stomas and stuff now, itjust promotes . the independence of how you can be normal with a stoma. _ jessica is determined to live life to the full. she's a keen dancer and won't let her stoma hold her back. ijust think she's a bundle ofjoy. so much energy, infectious energy. and you wouldn't think that she'd have the stoma. you just wouldn't know. and ijust think she inspires us as teachers, as well as other students. so i see jessica with a stoma as a positive thing, because it's made her more resilient, more strong, and a more positive outlook on the world. jessica posts videos on social media. she wants to share her story, to let other people know that life with a stoma can be normal and nothing to worry about. iwe're here at the hospital wherel i've been receiving my treatment, to see my brilliant stoma nurse, elaine — last month we filmed with radio1 dj adele, who also has a stoma,

and has also been raising awareness. this essentially- is my small intestine. iand the reason that the doctorsi gave me this is because my large i colon is healing at the moment, . because i've had a tumour removed. adele has become an inspiration forjessica. hi, adele. i wanted to thank you for raising awareness with me, because it means so much to me, and, yeah, helping the children, the children and adults who have a stoma with me. bye. so a final surprise — a message from jessica's hero. just sending our love, hoping that you're fitl and healthy and well. and i'm so sorry that i couldn't be there with you today. _ i hope to meet you one day soon, because you're - a massive inspiration to me. and thank you also for inspiring so many people to go out - and buy buttony bears. _ so proud to be a fellow merseysider. and like i say, hope to see you soon. i have a great day. isn't that lovely?

yeah, it's amazing. are you happy? yeah. i want to meet her. just seven years old, jessica is raising awareness, helping others, changing lives for people living with a stoma. graham satchell, bbc news, liverpool. love jessica. isn't that great? doesn't stop you doing anything. she is incredible. morning, jessica, if you are watching. thank you for that. , ., ., that. here is carol with the weather- — weather. good morning. weather. good morninu. _, ., weather. good morninu. ., , good morning. good morning. it is uuite a good morning. good morning. it is quite a dreich _ good morning. good morning. it is quite a dreich start _ good morning. good morning. it is quite a dreich start to _ good morning. good morning. it is quite a dreich start to the - good morning. good morning. it is quite a dreich start to the day. - quite a dreich start to the day. lovely weather watchers picture from keswick this morning. really paints the picture quite nicely. some rain this morning. that will ease as we go through the course of the day. it is not going to get into the south,

where it will also be fairly humid. quite a to the day generally. talking of rainfall, we have had the month ofjuly. that was southern england's driestjuly on record. records go back to 1836. met office records. this chart shows the percentage of average rainfall in july. here is the key. anything that is brown is below average. in some parts of the south there has not been any measurable rain at all. if you are looking for it in the next few days, there is none in the south either. we will see some rainfall in other parts of the country. in fact, we have got some rainfall this morning. all quite steadily courtesy of these weather fronts sinking south. we can also see from the ice about it is going to be quite a windy day today as well. blustery wherever you are. here is the rain, pushing steadily east. thundery showers have moved out of northern ireland. heavy downpours in southern scotland sinking south to northern

england. a lot of cloud around. murky conditions. we saw with mike, quite a grey start to the day in birmingham. it should brighten up through the day. but with a blustery winter. murky in wales and the south—west, especially on the coasts and hills. the rain easing and the wind will be a feature. temperatures rise and we will see some sunshine coming through. it will feel quite humid. temperatures getting up to 30 degrees, possibly more in the south—east. but widely we are into the 20s or indeed the mid 20s. through this evening and overnight here is one of the weather front sinking south. a weak feature taking cloud and patchy rain with it. another weather front in the north—west bringing in some showers. some will merge to give longer spells of rain. these temperatures, another humid one. tomorrow we have the dregs of the weather front sinking south as a band of cloud.

sunshine behind. a few showers on the north—westerly wind. the wind changing direction. it will feel fresher in the northern half of the country. still quite humid in the south with highs of 28. as we move through wednesday into thursday you can see we still do have some front surround. this ridge of high pressure builds in. for the rest of the week things are going to be a bit more settled. it will also feel fresher. top temperatures, 26 degrees. good to hear. thank you. some people say the best things in life are free. but have they ever tried keeping a bunch of children entertained during the summer holidays? with household budgets under increasing pressure, our reporter fi lamdin is looking into family fun that doesn't break the bank. and i mean really doesn't break the bank. she's in leeds. morning, fi.

good morning. iam good morning. i am with a spinous or us. if i wave he is meant to roar. he is meant to draw. hopefully he will in a moment. there are 12 of these dotted around leeds. children, families, can go around and spot them all. they get a special map and they can stand them off, sealed 12 and it is completely free. it doesn't cost a penny. the summer holidays, keeping children entertained can be expensive. with many of us having to tighten our belts because of the cost of living, this can be a challenge. we love a challenge. we found an amazing family of five in ramsgate. we asked them if they would spend a day with us, five of them, forjust £5 notes. let's see how they got on. meet the robbins—tyrrell family from ramsgate. terry, june, sienna, ethan, maisie, and lola the puppy.

so our goal is to keep everyone entertained and fed on a very tight budget. do you think that's possible? no. yeah. not going to happen. terry runs a security business, but things are tight. unfortunately, i don't think there's a holiday this year. but we're trying to find local stuff and cheaper options to keep the kids entertained. all three children are - growing, feet are growing. they need everything for school. so we're having to tighten our belts throughout each week, _ to say that we've got that extra money to put aside for- those school uniforms - that they are going to need. first stop, the tennis courts. hello, everybody. _ welcome to tennis for free. nice to see you all. all right, let's get. some rackets then. shall we get started? | so, have you played tennis before? | when was the last time you played? yeah, about 20 years ago. 20 years ago? yeah. - 0k, great. up and down the country, the lawn tennis association is funding free coaching throughout the summer.

here we go then, bounce and... ..hita cone! it's getting people of all ages, - doesn't matter whether you've played before, on a tennis court hitting lots of balls _ it's great fun physically, - and for mental health as well. well, i almost hit the instructor while hitting the ball over the net. i had a go and on the last go i hit the ball really hard, and then it landed all the way over there. it's the first time i've played tennis and... do you like it? and i like it. next stop, ramsgate fire station. wow! do you want to sit in that one? all right? there we go. - sit around like that. you look good in that, don't you? i'm sure i'll see you on the job sometime in the future. - it's made your day, hasn't it? yeah? are you going to be a fireman one day? and it's notjust here in kent. fire stations right across the country are flinging open their doors this holiday.

probably not? no _ so, fishing gives people the opportunity to get outside into the countryside, and enjoy the british wildlife, and use skills such as teamwork, fishing with people, concentration, patience, and also being quiet and at one with nature. free lessons like these are happening all over the uk. and it isn't long before sienna catches her first fish. i think we should name him fred! what do you reckon on that? you caught him. are you going to swap now? well done, buddy. give us a high five. well done. they've been on the go now for eight hours. we have packed so much in today, and had so much fun, and somehow managed to come in under budget. we've still got 10p change. what's been your favourite thing? probably the the fishing and the tennis. catching the fish and getting wet. my favourite part was the hose.

do you know, just seeing the kids' faces, they've loved every minute of it. and it's all been free. you smashed it, you did it, and in under a fiver. did you ever think that would be possible? no, i didn't. honestly, i didn't. when we got set that challenge, in my head i was laughing. and it's been a long day. but so much we've done. and, yeah, i think they're all going to sleep well tonight. can you believe it? we did do it. oh, my gosh. i did feel a little bit bad. the poor parents having just a drink and a piece offered. the main thing was the children were fed and they were so entertained. they said it would probably be the best day in their entire school holidays. the spina soros moving again. he has been put in the water. martin, tell us how you got him in here? it was a massive challenge? ten

the policy now in its third year restricts adverts for foods high in calories and salt. the greatest impact is said to be on people from deprived areas in terms of preventing health conditions. it's exactly two weeks since we experienced the hottest day on record with temperatures hitting 40 degrees celsius causing fires across london and the home counties. for dozens of families who lost their homes, in places like wennington in east london, some are still looking for a place to live. but the community has also rallied around after a difficult period. there's been shock, there's been grief, anger, even moments of laughter and joy in the midst of if all as well. and then the broader community has been immensely generous. the outpouring of donations has been overwhelming. british airways says it'll stop selling tickets on short—haul flights from heathrow until next monday. it's after the airport announced a limit on daily passenger numbers

to try to avoid chaos over the summer. the tube board and a fire alert at stratford this morning is causing severe delays on the elizabeth line between liverpool street and shenfield. now the weather with kate. good morning. it's been quite a humid, uncomfortable night, temperatures for some not dropping below 20 celsius. today, a couple of cold fronts sinking south. the isobars squeezed together, so it's going to be quite a breezy day. a south—westerly wind. so, some bright spells this morning. then the thicker cloud. you might get a spot of rain, but nothing more significant, dissolving to a certain extent into the afternoon to more sunshine. and temperatures today, again, hot at 30 celsius. now this evening, it's dry and fine. so some evening sunshine ahead of it, setting overnight. variable amounts of clouds, some lengthy, clear spells. the minimum temperature, again, warm and uncomfortable at 18 celsius in central london. another cold front as we head

through wednesday. still quite a breezy day tomorrow as well. the cloud in part once again thick enough to produce some spots of rain, but nothing more significant. that cloud dissolves into the afternoon to more sunshine. another warm day, but temperatures perhaps a little cooler than today at 28 celsius. now for the rest of the week, thursday, friday, ridge of high pressure builds, so plenty of fine and dry weather. still no significant rain in the forecast, and temperatures widely staying in the mid—20s. that's it for now. i'm backjust before 7.30.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and ben thompson. 0ur headlines today. more energy price increases. predictions seen by this programme suggest typical bills will go up to more than £3000 in the autumn and rise even further next year. with the latest results from oil and gas giant bp in the next couple of minutes, we'll look at why those soaring bills mean big profits for the energy companies. killed in a us drone stike. one of the masterminds of the 9/11 attacks and leader of al-qaeda, ayman al—zawahiri. after months of court hearings, its expected that 12—year—old archie battersbee will have his life support switched off today. good morning from birmingham. it's yet another golden moment for dame laura kenny. after overcoming what she called a confidence crisis she wins gold

on the final day of track cycling. chloe kelly's celebration at the euros. a picture that will go down in history, we'll speak to one of the photographers who caught the iconic image. good morning. a fairly murky start to the some rain and some heavy, thundery showers. they will ease through the day, some sunshine will come out and it will be windy and humid. all of the details later in the programme. it's tuesday the 2nd of august. our main story. household energy bills could rise even higher than expected this autumn with the price cap set to go up again in october. the energy watchdog 0fgem had previously warned that the average yearly gas bill will be £2,800 but energy analysts cornwall insight have told this programme the figure is likely to be £500 more than that, before rising even more next year.

ben's been looking into this for us. in the summer, it's much easier because we don't have to have the heating on, we don't have to use the dryer, i can hang all these clothes on the line. ruth, a mother of two, has already cut back on her energy usage. might have to change some of the way that we do things inside the house, and maybe i'll be out here in the cold pegging the washing on the line. now, news of another hike in energy bills this autumn is putting the pressure on. the latest prediction is that it will go up in the autumn to £3358 per year for an average household. what are your thoughts on that? i mean, it'sjust frightening, really, because it's such a huge amount of money and you can't get around it. there's things that you can't change, you know, when it's winter, we have to put the heating on, we have to put the lights on. maybe we won't have the heating on as much, maybe we'll have

to put extra jumpers on. but there is something that you can't change and you can't stop. i still have to wash the clothes. so it's going to be a challenging winter, i think, for everybody. in april last year, the energy price cap increased, pushing the annual bill for an average household on a variable rate from just over £1000 to 1138. within a year, the price cap had risen to its current level, which puts a typical bill at £1971. but energy analysts cornwall insight think it will go even higher to more than 3358 this october. and these price rises are expected to continue, with families potentially paying as much as £3729 by this time next year. but while our household bills are soaring, energy firms are making record profits.

shell made £9 billion between april and june. british gas owner centrica's profits were five times higher in the first—half of this year compared to the year before. the government says it's providing support worth billions of pounds, including a £400 discount on energy bills for every household in england, scotland and wales. but citizens advice said the number of people seeking help because they can no longer afford to eat and heat their homes has tripled in a year. ben boulos, bbc news. we're joined now by matt copeland, from the fuel poverty charity national energy action. thank you for being with us this morning. some of these figures are pretty scary for many people, prices are set to rise not only this year but even more next year. we have talked a lot about how many people will be pushed into so—called fuel

poverty, what is your assessment about how bad this could get? goad about how bad this could get? good morninu. i about how bad this could get? good morning. ithink— about how bad this could get? good morning. i think at _ about how bad this could get? good morning. i think at the _ about how bad this could get? (13mm morning. i think at the moment during the summer months with the price cap where it is at the moment at £2000 per yearfor the price cap where it is at the moment at £2000 per year for the average household, it is already bad. we are seeing the people that we help really struggle to pay their energy bills. as we move into the winter with those high prices we have heard about, and also demand going out quite significantly through the heating season, we are going to see people turn to really desperate measures just to stay warm, whether thatis measures just to stay warm, whether that is going to public spaces like libraries or the busjust that is going to public spaces like libraries or the bus just to get warm, or doing much more dangerous things like lighting open fires in homes. that can lead to catastrophic consequences. t homes. that can lead to catastrophic consequences-— consequences. i wanted to ask, we are in a relatively _ consequences. i wanted to ask, we are in a relatively should _ consequences. i wanted to ask, we are in a relatively should position l are in a relatively should position because the weather is good, we don't need to put the heating on. as winter approaches people will be forced to do so or take alternative

an old projection of the price cut. that £500 gap in support needs to be addressed. it's clear that people are going to be paying huge amounts for their energy, and we have seen relatively big profits from the energy firms so there is a clear inefficiency there, and that is an option that the government could take in order to fund any new support for households. brute take in order to fund any new support for households. we are talkin: support for households. we are talking about _ support for households. we are talking about the _ support for households. we are talking about the record - support for households. we are | talking about the record figures, those figures are in from bp, telling us that they have made a quarterly profit of $8.4 billion must by my reckoning, £7 billion. that is far higher than many were expecting. they should be paying more, shouldn't they? we have had calls for a windfall tax, the time is now, isn't it? t calls for a windfall tax, the time is now, isn't it?— is now, isn't it? ithink it is really urgent _ is now, isn't it? ithink it is really urgent that - is now, isn't it? ithink it is really urgent that the - is now, isn't it? i think it is l really urgent that the current is now, isn't it? i think it is - really urgent that the current prime minister and the future prime minister and the future prime minister whoever that will be doesn't set out how they are going

to provide that extra support for households this winter —— they do set out how they are going to provide that support which will be a necessity on the first day of offers. that is an option for them and they have got many options but the more important thing in the support that goes to households and not how it is funded. goad support that goes to households and not how it is funded.— not how it is funded. good to talk to ou, not how it is funded. good to talk to you. thank _ not how it is funded. good to talk to you, thank you, _ not how it is funded. good to talk to you, thank you, matt - not how it is funded. good to talk to you, thank you, matt kirkland | to you, thank you, matt kirkland from —— matt copeland 42. from national energy action. those figures have just been confirmed, the latest figures from bp, ben is here to explain those numbers, staggering amounts of money. tt numbers, staggering amounts of mone . , ., numbers, staggering amounts of mone. .. , ., ., money. it is almost £7 billion and this is the — money. it is almost £7 billion and this is the profits _ money. it is almost £7 billion and this is the profits that _ money. it is almost £7 billion and this is the profits that bp - money. it is almost £7 billion and this is the profits that bp made, l this is the profits that bp made, just in the second three months of the year. so it's even higher than the year. so it's even higher than the profits they made in the first three months of the year. that was

just shy of 5 billion. so this latest set of results, just shy of 7 billion. the reason is because partly after lockdown was lifted there was a surge in demand for oil and gas which pushes the price up, then the sanctions on russia after russia invaded ukraine, russia was a big supplier of energy, that has limited supply so it has pushed the price up. all the while, people are seeing their household gas and electricity bills soar, it is costing more to fill up the car. these profits will sit slightly uncomfortably for some people. we should say that back in may government announced a windfall tax on energy company profits, that will take some of those profits and put them back into the public purse. but there are ways of limiting how much they actually have to pay in that windfall tax, if they invest in renewable energy sources for example. 50 renewable energy sources for exam le, , ., renewable energy sources for example-— renewable energy sources for examle. , ., , example. so explain this for us. some people — example. so explain this for us. some people will _ example. so explain this for us. some people will be _ example. so explain this for us.

some people will be confused . example. so explain this for us. | some people will be confused by example. so explain this for us. - some people will be confused by the idea that wholesale energy prices are going up for all the reasons you have mentioned, we are all paying more, but then there is a huge chunk, the profit, but that the firms are they able to profit if their costs are going up and we are therefore paying more, where is the extra profit coming from? that therefore paying more, where is the extra profit coming from?— extra profit coming from? that is the thing that _ extra profit coming from? that is the thing that will— extra profit coming from? that is the thing that will frustrate - the thing that will frustrate people, they will say, actually, we are being told that the wholesale price has gone up, the costs have gone up, in terms of the labour market, to attract people to do jobs, to hire people with higher wages, that is what will sit uncomfortably with some people. when they see the pressures that have a real impact on them day—to—day, the tough decisions that people are having to make. and yet we are seeing these high profit. it isn't just bp, shell have recently reported big profits for the same quarter. shell have reported £9.4 billion for the same quarter of the year. so we are talking very, very

big sums indeed. that these companies are making. and the frustration people feel is where the wholesale price comes down, the price they are paying doesn't follow as quickly as when the price goes up. a phenomenon they call the rocket and feather, they go up like a rocket and drop like a feather. always seems to beat their way. i know you are going to be following this throughout the —— always seems to be the way. you will be following this, thank you. you can see the record far exceeding that many were expecting. the us has killed the leader of al-qaeda in a drone strike in afghanistan. presidentjoe biden confirmed that ayman al—zawahiri was killed in a counter—terror operation carried out by the cia in kabul on sunday. we are joined now by our chief international correspondent lyse doucet.

her after decades, america has killed one of its most wanted terrorists. my fellow americans, on saturday, at my direction, the united states successfully concluded an air strike in kabul, afghanistan, which killed the emir of al-qaeda, ayman al—zawahiri. the president said he gave his personal approval to kill ayman al—zawahiri. justice has been delivered, and this terrorist leader is no more. people around the world no longer need to fear the vicious and determined killer. the united states continues to demonstrate our resolve and our capacity to defend the american people against those who seek to do us harm. you know, we make it clear again tonight that no matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide, if you are a threat to our people, the united states will find you and take you out. it's taken 21 years. 0sama bin laden was the face behind the 9/11 attacks, but al—zawahiri was seen as the brains. officials say his tactics and organisational skills

were responsible for the depths of nearly 3000 people. were responsible for the deaths of nearly 3000 people. both men were close, appearing in propaganda videos. al—zawahiri was even bin laden's personal physician. the us wanted him dead or alive for $25 million. i think what this reflects is, really, the challenges we have had on our counterterrorism policies where al—zawahiri has been able to survive for two decades. 0utlasted the afghanistan war in safety, prior to us being able to eliminate him. when bin laden was killed by the americans in 2011, al—zawahiri took over. the president said america hunted him for a year, eventually locating him to a safe house in kabul last weekend. they shot two missiles at him. his family members were unharmed. al—zawahiri was rumoured to be in bad health, becoming a remote figure, and with the rise of other terror groups like the so—called islamic state, his influence

was marginal compared to his predecessor. the taliban has called the killing "a violation of international principles". but al—zawahiri's presence in kabul has cast doubt on the taliban's promise its country would not be a haven for terrorists. nomia iqbal, bbc news, washington. after months of court rulings and appeals, its expected that archie battersbee will have his life support switched off this afternoon. the 12—year—old was found unconscious at his home in essex in april. a hearing yesterday ruled treatment should not continue beyond midday, although the boy's parents could take the case back to the supreme court. liz truss' bid to become the next prime minister has received a boost after her former leadership rival penny mordaunt pledged to back her. the trade minister described ms truss as the "hope candidate" at a leadership hustings event. 0ur political correspondent ione wells joins us now.

service and later other public sector roles if that works so people are paid less in poorer regions of the uk. that has been dubbed by rishi sunak�*s campaign as an attempt to trash the nhs and police and other public sector workers ahead of a general election. rishi sunak on the other hand last night again pretty positive after his performance to tory party members, he was very keen to stress that he was a change candidate after some concern in his camp that he is being viewed as a continuity candidate in this race. he was stressing things like his support for brexit and the fact that liz truss spent longer in the cabinet and he has. he got quite a big round of applause when he defended himself against one question from an audience member who grilled him on his loyalty to boris johnson. he said that he was loyal for two years that in the end of the government was on the wrong side of an ethical question. both camps seem pretty happy with the performance of

their candidates last night. there are still weeks of this campaign to go and i think the key test for both of them is going to be how many of those undecided voters they can win over. ., ~' those undecided voters they can win over. . ~ , ., ., those undecided voters they can win over. . ~ i. ., �*, over. thank you, ione. let's return to the story — over. thank you, ione. let's return to the story that _ over. thank you, ione. let's return to the story that the _ over. thank you, ione. let's return to the story that the leader - over. thank you, ione. let's return to the story that the leader of - to the story that the leader of al-qaeda has been killed by the us in drone strike in afghanistan. i am in drone strike in afghanistan. i am in was killed —— ayman al—zawahiri was killed on sunday. 0ur international correspondent is in afghanistan. explain the significance of what we have been hearing overnight.— hearing overnight. where we are standin: hearing overnight. where we are standing here — hearing overnight. where we are standing here is _ hearing overnight. where we are standing here is a _ hearing overnight. where we are standing here is a few _ hearing overnight. where we are standing here is a few streets i hearing overnight. where we are i standing here is a few streets away from where two missiles slammed into the centre of kabul on sunday morning. there has been speculation ever since as to what was hit, were there any casualties, reports that

there any casualties, reports that the united states could have been involved. and then tonight, or at least early morning kabul time came the news from washington from presidentjoe biden that they had killed the al-qaeda leader. we went to the commission this morning and we were able to see what seems to be the house, now covered with plastic screening. the balcony where the united states says that they had intelligence that al—zawahiri used to hang out, part of his pattern of life, they said. this is a really significant moment on what are already very difficult relations between united stations —— united states and taliban authorities in afghanistan. during the talks between the taliban and the united states in the past two years, the taliban did commit not to allow their territory to be used again as it was before september 11 attacks

in 2001, to launch any strikes against the united states, against american targets. but the deal never made clear that the taliban could not host their long time, there were to say their brother, their islamic friend, part of the jihadi movement and that is what they will say. that the al-qaeda leader was a long—term friend and guest of the taliban. but the united states of course sees this very seriously, they see it as a violation of their understandings that al—zawahiri was not leaving as was believed in a border region of pakistan and afghanistan, he was living here right in a residential neighbourhood of the city, in a house owned by one of the key taliban leaders who is still himself under us sanctions. ahshd taliban leaders who is still himself under us sanctions.— taliban leaders who is still himself under us sanctions. and as you say, 21 ears under us sanctions. and as you say, 21 years since _ under us sanctions. and as you say, 21 years since those _ under us sanctions. and as you say, 21 years since those 9/11 _ under us sanctions. and as you say, 21 years since those 9/11 attacks, i 21 years since those 9/11 attacks, al-qaeda somewhat diminished, may but does it still pose a threat to

the us? quite clearly the us hoping to draw a line under some of the worst of those atrocities from 9/11. presidentjoe biden had been asked many times when he decided to call every single american soldier out of afghanistan. he said that the threat posed by al-qaeda and other terrorist groups including islamic state, which also operates in afghanistan, did not require boots on the ground. they had intelligence capabilities, they had the kind of military hardware including the drones that seem to be have used in this case, that they would be able to fight terrorism and threats to the united states, over the horizon, that was the phrase that they use. he will use this as an example to say, the united states doesn't have to be on the ground with its forces. we can still continue the fight wherever we are and we will find what they would regard as one of

their number one enemy. al-qaeda now operates in many parts of the world, in the middle east, across africa. but we did know, we had heard since the taliban took power last august, that al-qaeda fighters were crossing the borderfrom pakistan into afghanistan. the taliban have always said, they will not carry out in the activities, they are simply our guests. but there were persistent reports of al-qaeda training camps. so this killing again today will raise these questions. what have the taliban agreed to? are they keeping their commitment not to be an area in which terrorist groups can operate from? and what is the united states do now going forward? they are struggling to find ways to deal with the authorities in afghanistan, to help the people of afghanistan, to help the people of afghanistan, to try to address this major humanitarian crisis here. and, yes, to fight the threats of terrorism.

good to have your analysis this morning, thank you, lisa doucet. carol has already use one of my favourite weather words this morning, murky, it is already quite murky. it is murky and it is a good description of the weather. it is humid as well, temperatures are widely between 18 and 20 degrees at the moment. we have been watching this band of rain pushing eastwards through the course of the night, country showers overnight, moving into scotland and sinking into the isle of man, they will push across part of northern england, towards yorkshire and lincolnshire. you can see the extent of the cloud cover, murky in the west wales and south—west, and north—west scotland. heaviest rain moving into the northern isles, a brighter slice and then showers behind. heavy and

thundery showers out of northern ireland south brightening up for you, and as we think itself, thundery showers across parts of northern england. we hang on to the murk and dampness across wales in the south—west. something drier in the south—west. something drier in the south—east. as we go through the day, the rain will ease but for many of us as temperatures rise, the sun will come out. a windy day as well, top temperatures between 28 and 30. this evening and overnight, a weather front this evening and overnight, a weatherfront thinks this evening and overnight, a weather front thinks south, producing all of this cloud and some spot of rain. not getting into the south—east, lots of showers coming in across the north west, some magic to give longer spells of rain. it will be a humid night. we start off with cloud in the south, largely dry, some sunshine behind, a few showers. the wind of ears to north—west so it will be fresher in the north—west but still humid in the north—west but still humid in the south—east.

a surgeon who helped to successfully separate brazilian twins who were joined at the head has described the virtual reality technology they used as "space—age stuff". three year olds bernardo and arthur lima were operated on in rio dejaneiro, but with help from experts in london. surgeons in both countries wore headsets and operated in the same "virtual reality room" together. dr 0wase jeelani oversaw the surgery from the uk and hejoins us now. good morning. first of all, ijust have to ask how the boys are doing right now? have to ask how the boys are doing riaht now? ,., ., ., have to ask how the boys are doing riahtnow? ., right now? good morning. the boys are making — right now? good morning. the boys are making good — right now? good morning. the boys are making good progress - right now? good morning. the boys are making good progress at - right now? good morning. the boys are making good progress at this i are making good progress at this early stage, the separation happened seven weeks ago, so it's still early days from our perspective, but so far so good. flan days from our perspective, but so far so good-— days from our perspective, but so far so good. can you explain to us how it worked? _ far so good. can you explain to us how it worked? because - far so good. can you explain to us how it worked? because you i far so good. can you explain to us how it worked? because you were far so good. can you explain to us i how it worked? because you were here and they were there, how did you oversee that surgery? yes. and they were there, how did you oversee that surgery?— and they were there, how did you oversee that surgery? yes, 'ust to clari , oversee that surgery? yes, 'ust to clarify. there is i

stadium, transformed for the start of the athletics today. plenty to look forward to there. as one event starts, another came to a dramatic end — the cycling finished with a gold medalfor laura kenny. here's austin halewood with that, and some of the day's other highlights. after four days without a gold in the velodrome, england's queen of the track reigned supreme once again. in 2012, this was the very spot where laura kenny made her name with two golds in the london olympics. a decade on, she was back, this time in the women's scratch race — ten kilometres, 40 laps, the first rider across the line wins. so with the finish in sight, she made her move. and with 27 major championship golds already in the bag, she knows exactly how to turn it on in these closing moments. and she's a champion once again! kenny, who almost quit the sport earlier this year, back on top.

i have just absolutely lost motivation. and then last night i was messaging my new coach, len, and i was like, "no, i'm not giving up! i'm not giving up on this. i've got one more roll of the dice, please!" and then to cross the line here in london, 0h, ijust — honestly, i couldn't ask for anything more. unlike the velodrome, the gymnastics centre has already seen plenty of english gold, and theyjust keep coming. jake jarman winning his third of these games in the individual floor final, while local lad joe frazer took his second gold, this time in the pommel horse final, before courtney tulloch and georgia mae fenton both won gold to round off a great day for england. shannon archer leapt into the scottish history books with this vault. it was good enough for bronze — scotland's first ever artistic gymnastics medal at the commonwealth games. the first gold of the day came at the weightlifting, thanks to england's chris murray in the 81 kilo category. he lifted a combined 325 kilograms

across his two lifts — about the same weight as your typical grizzly bear. and he couldn't quite believe it. england's maisie summers—newton is currently training to be a teacher, but around her studies, she still manages to be the best in the world in the pool. the world, european and paralympic champion, now completing the set with gold in the women's100 metres breaststroke sb6. and while it may have finally come home for england's lionesses at the weekend, lucy beere finally ended 28 years of hurt for guernsey at the commonwealth games. the bowler won a silver medal in the women's singles. with a population ofjust 64,000 — about the same as canterbury — it could just be guernsey's greatest sporting moment. austin halewood, bbc news. brilliant to see guernsey on the medal board.

there was an historic moment for swimmer duncan scott, who became scotland's most decorated commonwealth athlete. he took his tally to 11 with two bronze medals yesterday. he'd already won gold on saturday, so he's having a great games. so, how does all that leave the medals table? england added a massive ten gold medals to their tally yesterday, but they're still second behind australia. scotland stay seventh with two golds. wales are still tenth and northern ireland have dropped a place to 16th. 0ne one thing you love the commonwealth games is when you see an athlete get emotional about winning a gold medal. it means so much to them. that is the case for our guests, chris murray! he won the weightlifting gold. a first proper

amber colours and we hang on to the yellows. it will still be warm. it will not be hot. as we go through the course of friday and saturday with high pressure in charge, a few fronts coming in to the north and west, so for you there will be some rain. furthersouth, drier conditions and temperatures up to 2a or 25 degrees. no significant rainfall in the south—east on the horizon at the moment. it really is a mixed bag depending where you are in the country. thank you. you may remember last month we brought you the story of bob the pigeon, who'd got a bit lost while out on a race. setting off from guernsey, bob was supposed to fly the 400—mile trip back home to gateshead. lam not i am not sure that really is bob. instead, he took a wrong turn and ended up travelling over 4,000 miles to the small town of monroeville in alabama!

luckily for bob, he was well looked after by the monroe county animal shelter, and even managed to keep in touch with his owner alan over zoom. hello! what you doing? bob! is that your daddy? stopped by a tractor supply yesterday and went and got him some feed and some seed for him. and got him a water dish, and got a temporary cage for him with a little perch that he can hang out and recover and get some food in him. within a day, he looked a lot better, just in one day, so they're obviously looking after him very well. well, this morning we can bring you the good news that bob is safely back in gateshead and reunited with alan. they join us now. good morning, alan. how is bob and how are you? he good morning, alan. how is bob and how are you?— how are you? he is very welcome as ou can how are you? he is very welcome as you can see- — how are you? he is very welcome as you can see- he _ how are you? he is very welcome as you can see- he is— how are you? he is very welcome as you can see. he is getting _ how are you? he is very welcome as you can see. he is getting healthier| you can see. he is getting healthier every— you can see. he is getting healthier every day —

for the same period last year. all this comes against a backdrop of rising household fuel bills. and just when you thought the news on those couldn't get any worse, it does. the energy analysts cornwall insight have shared their latest forecast with this programme and they predict that our gas and electricity bills will be even higher than we thought. this is all about the energy price cap, which applies to households on a variable rate, which is most of us. in april last year, the cap increased pushing the annual bill for an average household on a variable rate from just over £1000 to £1138. within a year, the price cap had risen to its current level which puts a typical bill at £1,971. but cornwall insight think it'll go even higher to more than £3358 this october. these price rises are expected to continue with families potentially paying as much as £3,729

by this time next year. earlier on breakfast we spoke to matt copeland from the fuel poverty charity, national energy action who said the energy firms should be taxed to help offset offset the enormous bills faced by uk households. i think it's really important the government does take action here, and does _ government does take action here, and does try and provide more support— and does try and provide more support for households going into this winter. they have already supplies —— provided some support in may but _ supplies —— provided some support in may but that— supplies —— provided some support in may but that is outdated based on an old projection of the hat price cap and that— old projection of the hat price cap and that £500 gap in support needs to be addressed. it clear that people — to be addressed. it clear that people will be paying huge amounts for their— people will be paying huge amounts for their energy people will be paying huge amounts fortheir energy and people will be paying huge amounts for their energy and there are big profits— for their energy and there are big profits for— for their energy and there are big profits for the energy firms so there — profits for the energy firms so there is— profits for the energy firms so there is huge inefficiency that so that is— there is huge inefficiency that so that is something that the government could do to support

domestic homes, are not making much money at all. because they are having to buy the energy from the upstream at the very high prices. but in terms of the wholesale price, people are told, they have got to have the price cap go up, they end “p have the price cap go up, they end up paying more for their household energy bills, and yet they will hear these big profits and say, clearly, these big profits and say, clearly, the wholesale price isn't putting pressure on these companies in the first place so why do our bills have to go up if they are making huge sums? in to go up if they are making huge sums? :. , to go up if they are making huge sums? . , , , to go up if they are making huge sums? :, , , , , :, sums? in many cases they are separate — sums? in many cases they are separate companies. - sums? in many cases they are separate companies. they i sums? in many cases they are separate companies. they are| separate companies. they are designed to make money for their shareholders and make profits. that's what they're doing, they're making record profits. if the government doesn't like that, it has the tools of windfall taxes and taxes to apply on those companies and take the extra profits, the

excess profits, people might argue, and help out consumers. that's what they are attempting to do with the first announcement on windfall taxes a few months ago and it wouldn't surprise me if they come back and have another bite of the cherry, taking more of these windfall profits because they are windfall profits. bp are selling their gas and oil this quarter at twice the price they were getting it last year. that'sjust price they were getting it last year. that's just an price they were getting it last year. that'sjust an impact price they were getting it last year. that's just an impact of the global market and the war in the ukraine. , . :. global market and the war in the ukraine. . , :, .~' global market and the war in the ukraine, , :, n :, global market and the war in the ukraine, , :, :, , ukraine. just a quick one, people want to know. — ukraine. just a quick one, people want to know, when _ ukraine. just a quick one, people want to know, when we - ukraine. just a quick one, people want to know, when we might i ukraine. just a quick one, people i want to know, when we might expect prices to come down? t want to know, when we might expect prices to come down?— prices to come down? i think it's a lona wa prices to come down? i think it's a long way off. _ prices to come down? i think it's a long way off. we _ prices to come down? i think it's a long way off, we are _ prices to come down? i think it's a long way off, we are in _ prices to come down? i think it's a long way off, we are in for- prices to come down? i think it's a long way off, we are in for a i long way off, we are in for a depressing year at least and may be 18 months, may be after the following winter, not this winter but the following winter, we might see prices we can. but it's a long way away, i'm afraid, it's bad news all the way for a while. {lilia way away, i'm afraid, it's bad news all the way for a while.— all the way for a while. 0k, thank ou, all the way for a while. 0k, thank you. david _ all the way for a while. 0k, thank you. david cox. _ all the way for a while. 0k, thank you, david cox, energy _ all the way for a while. 0k, thank you, david cox, energy analyst. l all the way for a while. 0k, thank l you, david cox, energy analyst. it's worth saying that we have got this forecast for what the energy cap will go up to in the autumn, we will

justice has been delivered, and this terrorist leader is no more. people around the world no longer need to fear the vicious and determined killer. the united states continues to demonstrate our resolve and our capacity to defend the american people against those who seek to do us harm. you know, we make it clear again tonight that no matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide, if you are a threat to our people, the united states will find you and take you out. earlier we heard from our chief international correspondent lyse doucet, who is in kabul this morning. where we are standing here is a few streets away from where two missiles slammed into the centre of kabul on sunday morning. we went to the location this morning and we were able to see what seems to be the house, now covered with plastic screening.

the balcony where the united states says that they had intelligence that al—zawahiri used to hang out, it was part of his pattern of life, as they said. this is a really significant moment on what are already very difficult relations between the united states and the taliban authorities in afghanistan. we can go now to our security correspondent, gordon corera. good morning, gordon. wejust had at least two sets talking about how this is a significant moment, give us some —— lyse doucet talking about this, give us an idea about why this is significant. it is this, give us an idea about why this is significant-— is significant. it is significant particularly _ is significant. it is significant particularly for _ is significant. it is significant particularly for the _ is significant. it is significant particularly for the united i is significant. it is significant i particularly for the united states, this was a man directly involved in planning those september the 11th 2001 attracts which

to see some sunshine coming through. it will be windy and blustery depending on where you are, a few showers into the afternoon. it will feel humid into the afternoon with temperatures widely 25 degrees, possibly 30 in london. the weather front thinks south overnight as a weak feature, bringing front thinks south overnight as a weakfeature, bringing cloud front thinks south overnight as a weak feature, bringing cloud and spots of rain but not into the south—east where we need it. we have showers across the north west of scotland, some urging to give longer spells of rain and it is going to be another humid one. tomorrow we start with a weak front in the south producing cloud. a lot of dry weather around tomorrow but one thing you will notice is the wind will have moved to more of a north—westerly, across the north, bringing some showers across parts of scotland, northern england and northern ireland, and here it will feel fresher but still quite humid in the south at 27 or 28 degrees. non—surgical cosmetic procedures like botox and fillers

should be better regulated to prevent people who are struggling with their appearance from being exploited. that's one of the recommendations from a health committee report into body image, which has looked into the link between how people feel about the way they look, and their mental health. our correspondent zoe conway reports. when you look at nyome nicholas—williams, what do you see? yeah, beautiful. i can get all of your new tattoos as well! photographer alexandra cameron sees bravery. nyome is a model with influence. she has worked with brands like dove, adidas and boots. but her success has not come easy. growing up, she struggled with how she looked, and developed an eating disorder. i equated my tallness with being my bigness, and i was like, ok, maybe if i could be, like, i could appear shorter and and it's all psychological. it's like what alex said with my inner dialogue, i really struggled to just

understand that my body was ok and that i didn't have to be like the girls in my class and just because i was taller or bigger, that didn't take away from the essence of who i was. but i couldn't understand that at that age and it lasted a long time. she despairs that so many people have a negative view of their body. after being so uncomfortable with myself for many years, just for me to be, like, present with who i am, that's all i want. and people, they like that. so obviously i know people want to be more like themselves. and because i am unapologetically myself and i never will change, i think that is what people resonate with. images of so—called perfection are all around us. millions tuned into love island, but of course, it's not the first reality show. the only way is essex first blinged its way onto tv 12 years ago. one of its earliest stars, charlie king. go on, charlie! throughout his life, charlie has struggled with how his body looks and what is called body dysmorphia.

it drove him to have cosmetic surgery on his nose. i went on a plastic surgery journey which i thought was going to be incredible, the making of me. and it was totally the opposite. surgery didn't go to plan, i have had to wait two years to have my nose fixed, and i have had to live with that and that choice, and that has been one of the hardest lessons that i've ever learned, all because i thought i needed to change. he is grateful for the opportunities that towie gave him but he's worried about the effect reality tv could be having on young people. and when you're being bombarded with it, you don't see diversity, or different sorts of bodies being represented, if we are looking at certain reality tv shows, then what? because that seems to be what sells, that's what's going to get the viewings, that's what's going to get people talking and ultimately that's what's going to be seen as attractive. that's dangerous. a new report by the health select committee is concerned about the impact that body images are having on mental health.

they want to see labelling of digitally altered commercial pictures and regulation for nonsurgical cosmetic procedures within a year. so, i have had filler in my lips, i have had filler in my nose, i've had it on my nose to mouth lines, chin, jawline. i have had filler in my cheeks multiple times. every time kim booker got filler put in her face, she felt euphoric. but the feeling never lasted. she would spend hours on social media looking at adverts for cosmetic surgery. she once had so much filler in her nose, it came close to collapse. she also wants to see more regulation of cosmetic procedures. it's really sad, it's... it'sjust, yeah, it's really, really sad that i have, ijust disliked the way i looked that much at those times. and it's just everywhere you look,

and i still have those moments. it's still something that... because everywhere you look there's this image of perfection. she is now in a much happier phase of her life, and she has this message for her younger self. you are worth more than what you look, you're worth so much more. sorry. it's just really, it's just really sad. in a statement, the government spokesperson said, we will be introducing a national licensing scheme to ensure people are making informed and safe choices about nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, that will build on existing support we have put in place from expanding mental health services, including for those body dysmorphic disorder.

alex cameron hopes that her photography can help reframe how we view ourselves and each other. it's so powerful to see a woman like nyome standing up and saying, i'm amazing, which she is, because for too long, society and the world for some reason told her she wasn't and that is the shift that needs to happen, the acceptance, and it is happening. the body positivity movement is huge in that, but so much more needs to be done and people really need to watch themselves online, people need to understand kindness. zoe conway, bbc news. we're joined now by professor sandeep ranote, a consultant paediatric psychiatrist. good morning. good morning. it is a fascinatin: good morning. good morning. it is a fascinating watch, _ good morning. good morning. it is a fascinating watch, you _ good morning. good morning. it is a fascinating watch, you can _ good morning. good morning. it is a fascinating watch, you can see i good morning. good morning. it is a| fascinating watch, you can see where people have been really seriously, badly affected by issues to do their a mental health, it drives them to

physical and mental health, we should talk about our whole health and holistically. this report makes some really clear recommendations to our country and our government and it shines a spotlight on starting to, i hope, change the conversation, shift that culture, strength and some of the work already going on, whether that is about weight stigma and obesity, but it's also about underweight. being underweight is just as much risk as being overweight. and also things like body dysmorphic disorder, people don't really understand it. it's not something to be ashamed of, it's a real mental health condition. and what we have seen is, we have seen a rise and body image issues are within the top five issues for young people and young adults and have been for a number of years. it's actually about a third of notjust teenagers but adults who report issues with their body image. you

sa that issues with their body image. you say that testimony and those stories are powerful, and it all the well we are powerful, and it all the well we are bombarded with images on social media and television and elsewhere, also called perfect bodies. people who have had work done that say, this is the ultimate aesthetic, this is how you might want to look. how damaging is that? and who and what is to blame?— is to blame? very good questions. it could be potentially _ is to blame? very good questions. it could be potentially incredibly i could be potentially incredibly damaging for young people, for teenagers, for adults, in terms of both physical and mental health. you have heard stories of adverse reactions from nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, because of the lack of regulation, the lack of screening. so some of the recommendations around screening, notjust for your previous medical history and physical health but also mental health, really important. i think that's a brilliant recommendation, so it's a start. that can have

long—term damaging effects. the issue around body image that we are surrounded by, the question you posed,it surrounded by, the question you posed, it could have a potentially huge impact on the young people who are developing, their brains are developing. they are at a stage of huge influence, but at the age of 25, but it's not only young people, it's for all of us. and for some of us then, that could lead to a serious mental illness, depression, anxiety, oran serious mental illness, depression, anxiety, or an eating disorder. and anxiety, or an eating disorder. and what is it in — anxiety, or an eating disorder. and what is it in our— anxiety, or an eating disorder. and what is it in our brains that makes us want to look like someone else? that's the thing that strikes me, when you have seen people who have had a lot of work done on their face, what is it about us, what is the vulnerability there, that makes us think, i need to look a bit more like that? , _, , , :, like that? very complex question. sor ! it like that? very complex question. sorry! it doesn't _ like that? very complex question. sorry! it doesn't have _ like that? very complex question. sorry! it doesn't have one - like that? very complex question. sorry! it doesn't have one single l sorry! it doesn't have one single answer, multifactorial. - sorry! it doesn't have one single answer, multifactorial. there i

sorry! it doesn't have one single| answer, multifactorial. there are biological predisposing factors for why some of us go on to have mental illnesses and some of us don't but there are very powerful social and psychological factors in our society, exams of the environment we live in. we are no longer local communities for one nation, we are a global community, aren't we? so we cannot ignore the power of social media that has had on all of us, but particularly young people. young people are battling with those challenges every day. so we have real power in education, lots of things being done in our education systems but more can be done. in answer to one of your other questions, across sectors and in different industries, we need to work more closely together and in a more connected way to change and shift that culture, raise awareness, improve education and training, not just health care professionals but

all of us. so that we are much more aware of the potential harms that living with an issue around body image is. but also how to get help and where to have those conversations, and where that support may be and how to access better help. again, some of the recommendations from the report. deal we will talk about this again. i hope so. it deal we will talk about this again. i ho -e so. . . : deal we will talk about this again. ihoeso. ,,: ,, i hope so. it is such topical issue. professor — i hope so. it is such topical issue. professor saneep _ i hope so. it is such topical issue. professor saneep ranote, - i hope so. it is such topical issue. professor saneep ranote, thankl i hope so. it is such topical issue. i professor saneep ranote, thank you very much, fascinating inside. you are very welcome. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm asad ahmad. the police watchdog is investigating two further complaints of metropolitan police officers strip—searching teenagers. this time it's over two 16—year—old boys who were searched in police stations in east london. the independent office for police conduct is already looking into the case

of a 15—year—old girl, who was strip—searched by officers in a school. the metropolitan police says it welcomes advice given by the watchdog. research by a university and the london school of hygiene & tropical medicine suggests thatjunk food advertising restrictions on the london transport network may have prevented almost a hundred thousand cases of obesity. the policy — now in its third year — restricts adverts for foods high in calories and salt. the greatest impact is said to be on people from deprived areas in terms of preventing health conditions. it's exactly two weeks since we experienced the hottest day on record, with temperatures hitting a0 degrees celsius, causing fires across london and the home counties. for dozens of families who lost their homes, in places like wennington in east london, some are still looking for a place to live. but the community has also rallied around after a difficult period. there's been shock, there's been grief, anger, even moments of laughter and joy

in the midst of if all as well. and then the broader community has been immensely generous. the outpouring of donations has been overwhelming. british airways says it'll stop selling tickets on short—haul flights from heathrow until next monday. it's after the airport announced a limit on daily passenger numbers to try to avoid chaos over the summer. now the weather with kate. good morning. it's been quite a humid, uncomfortable night, temperatures for some not dropping below 20 celsius. today, a couple of cold fronts sinking south. the isobars squeezed together, so it's going to be quite a breezy day. a south—westerly wind. so, some bright spells this morning. then the thicker cloud. you might get a spot of rain, but nothing more significant, dissolving to a certain extent

into the afternoon to more sunshine. and temperatures today, again, hot at 30 celsius. now this evening, it's dry and fine. so some evening sunshine ahead of it, setting overnight. variable amounts of clouds, some lengthy, clear spells. the minimum temperature, again, warm and uncomfortable at 18 celsius in central london. another cold front as we head through wednesday. still quite a breezy day tomorrow as well. the cloud in part once again thick enough to produce some spots of rain, but nothing more significant. that cloud dissolves into the afternoon to more sunshine. another warm day, but temperatures perhaps a little cooler than today at 28 celsius. now for the rest of the week, thursday, friday, ridge of high pressure builds, so plenty of fine and dry weather. still no significant rain in the forecast, and temperatures widely staying in the mid—20s. that's it for now. i'm backjust after nine.

hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and ben thompson. after months of court rulings and appeals, it's expected that archie battersbee will have his life support switched off this afternoon. the 12—year—old was found unconscious at his home in essex in april. a hearing yesterday ruled treatment should not continue beyond midday although the boy's parents could take the case back to the supreme court, as ellie price reports. another court hearing, another crushing disappointment for the family of archie battersbee. doctors say the 12—year—old is brainstem dead and judges from the high court and court of appeal have repeatedly maintained it's in his best interests to switch off life support. but his mother fights on. i have got my son's best interests at heart, and paul, and the siblings. nobody else has got archie's best interests at heart and i say, and i still stand by it,

archie's best interests would be to allow that child time to recover. if he doesn't recover, he doesn't recover, but give him time to recover. archie was injured during an incident at home and taken to southend hospital on the 7th of april. after a series of tests, a high courtjudge ruled on the 13th ofjune that archie is dead, based on mri scan results, and that treatment could be withdrawn. on the 20th ofjune, the family asked the court of appeal to reconsider the case and it ruled that a new hearing should take place. that new hearing was held on the 15th ofjuly, and a judge ruled that life—support treatment should end. a decision supported by the court of appeal. thejudge in yesterday's hearing has said that there should be no further postponement of the withdrawal of life support beyond midday today. for archie's parents, their last hope now lies with the supreme court. ellie price, bbc news. england's stunning victory over germany in the euros final hasn't only provided us with some unforgettable moments, but football bosses are hoping it will turbo charge the women's game.
