thatis on the bottom of an envelope and that is to be seen in liz truss, turning so quickly on the policy to cut public sector pay across other parts of the country and she did not even admit to the fact that she had not worked the policy through, did not worked the policy through, did not understand what its implications were in order to save money, she blamed it on the press for willfully misinterpreting what she had said whichjust is misinterpreting what she had said which just is not true. misinterpreting what she had said whichjust is not true. and misinterpreting what she had said which just is not true. and there's certain levels, as you're watching this race, certain level of gleam about it which these slogans do not get you very far is just two people running to myjust be the next leader of the conservative party but the next prime minister of our country and none of us get a say on the sure conservative member and thatis the sure conservative member and that is a very small group and underrepresented part of the electorate in that ballot. and they seem to be pitching members, stuff that's very ill thought out and just

doesn't feel like this is a serious contest between two people who've actually got a well thought through, we may disagree with her, but an articulate agenda and vision for the country given the huge economic crisis that is staring the country down the tracks, it's really not very welcomed at all. the times, we will go to that. in electoral suicide says dominic raab, what does he mean? iitiuiith electoral suicide says dominic raab, what does he mean?— electoral suicide says dominic raab, what does he mean? with you saying there about the _ what does he mean? with you saying there about the base _ what does he mean? with you saying there about the base being _ what does he mean? with you saying there about the base being divided i there about the base being divided by many— there about the base being divided by many conservative members and dominic— by many conservative members and dominic raab is warning that liz truss's— dominic raab is warning that liz truss's plans would be electoral suicide — truss's plans would be electoral suicide and condemned the conservatives to oblivion and opposition and says that it would not be _

u—turns, there's been a lot of really poorly thought through policies and you think that it's all very well and good winning the top job, but what do you want to do a mighty want to do it. and i'm not sure either of the candidates are certainly convinced voters out there in the country yet with conservative membership, may be a different thing. in membership, may be a different thin. , , , ., ., thing. in briefly, in the guardian, liz truss's tax plans could cost so much without helping forestall. chiming without helping forestall. chiming with the people who are voting for her to be the leaders. to with the people who are voting for her to be the leaders.— with the people who are voting for her to be the leaders. to make the difference between _ her to be the leaders. to make the difference between rishi _ her to be the leaders. to make the difference between rishi and - her to be the leaders. to make the difference between rishi and liz. difference between rishi and liz truss said she would boost the economy and set it up to policy on that and things got worse and worse as things have gone on. the big issue with the 30 billion that liz

truss so she wants to spend, the tax cuts, that's not going to reach the parents, pensioners who do not pay the taxes she is intending on cutting in the first place. so that's a big problem that's likely to help the people we need the most support, given their energy bills are going up from £1500 a year in 2019 two, the latest forecast, to be £4000 a year injanuary. but the second big problem is from the guardian. reports tomorrow saying that actually, guardian. reports tomorrow saying that actually.— guardian. reports tomorrow saying that actually, sonya has frozen. 0h, she has come _ that actually, sonya has frozen. 0h, she has come back. _ that actually, sonya has frozen. 0h, she has come back. you _ that actually, sonya has frozen. 0h, she has come back. you just - she has come back. you just froze for a second. she has come back. you 'ust froze fora ”at she has come back. you 'ust froze for e cond— for a second. coming to the end an a , for a second. coming to the end anyway. which _ for a second. coming to the end anyway. which is _ for a second. coming to the end anyway, which is these - for a second. coming to the end anyway, which is these experts | anyway, which is these experts saying tax cuts are going to cost more than she has said and where that's going to come from is not clear. ., ~' , .,

for example. much less and then we don't spend enough in our health care. in the workforce crisis and thatis care. in the workforce crisis and that is due to a lack of planning and the government still hasn't published a proper workforce plan and hospitals are now in situations where they have one in ten positions vacant and health care assistance and senior doctors and consultants and senior doctors and consultants and it's very hard for hospitals to operate like that movie of a gp shortage as well and what you've got is a becomes a vicious cycle because medical staff burn—out, because of trying to cover vacancies in the migration and the curbs on the free movement as a result of us leaving the eu was also hit the nhs and so, it is really a moment of profound crisis for the nhs and people sometimes think, there will be a big that's not that we work. what happens is the guarantee that the nhs is always going to be there for us is gradually being eroded and i

30,000 people cheered on the show which also included a formal handover to the state of victoria in australia, which will host the 2026 edition of the commonwealth games. in the last of the sporting action, there was more success for the home nations. but now that the games have ended, how has it left its impression on the city of birmingham? our sports editor, dan roan, looks at the legacy of the games. birmingham has savoured its moment in the sun. with almost 1900 medals at stake... northern ireland. ..there has been no shortage of sporting highlights. an incredible race. the hosts embracing an event that raised spirits... yes! ..changed perceptions... standing ovation after a thrilling gold medal match. ..and was enjoyed by record numbers for a commonwealth games held in the uk. one former olympic champion told me her home city had done the country proud.

i hope people remember it for being the fun, friendly, warm and welcoming city, with high class performers throughout the venue. we have seen some phenomenal performances, and i think definitely it surpassed expectations. the final day of action saw an all english final in the squash. unbelievable drama. james willstrop and declanjames winning gold in the men's doubles. scotland, meanwhile, enjoying success in the diving. james heatley and grace reid victorious in the synchronised three metre spring board final. and 17—year—old andrea spendolini—sirieix won her third medal here, with a second gold for england alongside noah williams. i am just really pleased with how we executed our dives and our synchro, and it has been really, really fun. in a packed sports calendar, a host of top stars were absent. jamaican sprint world champion shelly—ann fraser—pryce and shericka jackson among those prioritising other events. gold to duncan scott. and even some of those who enjoyed

success here are concerned by the quality of competition. there is definitely room to argue it is lacking in depth, for sure. especially in, you know, looking at some of the heats. i think that has maybe always been the thing with the commonwealth games, because it is such a select few nations, you can get some depth in some places, but in others it really disappears. but that didn't seem to matter to the crowds that flocked here, and you didn't need a ticket to feel part of it. the true legacy of birmingham 2022 will only become clear in the future of course, but already there seems little doubt that the success of this event has reinforced britain's status as a host of major events, and reminded us of the sheer appetite for such sporting occasions, as these scenes show. the games cost £800 million to stage, but those in charge here insist it was worth it. we have already got lots of legacy, whether it is new facilities, transport links, jobs, business investment, but it is also true to say we have

shown the world we can host really high profile events. if there was another olympic bid from the uk, it would definitely have to come from outside london, and we, of course, now must be in pole position. and at a time when this event has struggled to find new hosts, birmingham may have helped. this games has absolutely revitalised what people think about the commonwealth games movement. we have 72 members, and the number of people who have been talking about it it's time for them to put their hand up and bid. a lot of that has been stimulated by what they have seen and experienced while they spent their time in birmingham. featuring athletes of all ages... scotland have won the gold. ..and from all corners of the commonwealth. # i want to break free. above all, perhaps, birmingham seemed to encapsulate the fun and enjoyment that sport can provide. an event striving to remain relevant mayjust have been given fresh meaning. watford and west brom played out a 1—1 draw at the hawthorns in championship tonight but the main talk of the match was centred around a moment of magic

from the visitors. watford's ismaila sarr with an absolute stunner from the halfway line having spotted david button off his line. karlen grant equalised before half—time for west brom. sarr then going from hero to zero as he missed a penalty after the break meaning the points were shared. eoin morgan and the london spirit made it two wins from two in cricket's the hundred with a dominant 52—run win over manchester originals at lord's. some big late innings hitting from kieron pollard, including a six off the final ball saw the spirit finish their innings on 160 and the originals had no answer, crumbling to 108 all out. and ahead of the us open in just a few weeks' time, serena williams has just won her first match in 14 months at the canadian open in toronto. the 40—year—old beat spain's nuria parrizas diaz in straight sets to reach the second round, where she'll face olympic gold medallist belinda bencic

or tereza martincova next. williams made her return at wimbledon injune after spending a year away from the court sidelined with injury. her comeback shortlived after being knocked out in the first round. and emma raducanu's preparations continue for the defence of her us open title. the world number ten takes on camila giorgi in the first round of the canadian open later, and says she's not feeling the pressure ahead of her return to flushing meadows. raducanu, made history last year when she became the first qualifier to win a grand slam tournament in the open era. the pressure is only either what i put on myself or what i expect for myself is the biggest, probably, thing that determines how you deal with that, how you feel. but also, more if it is just,

i mean, i only feel the pressure or think about it whenever i'm in my press conferences because every single question is about pressure. but other than that, the only pressure is from you guys, really. and that's all the sport for now. hello. i'm sure a lot of people are thinking it's warm enough already but it will get hotter to the rest of this week. temperatures will continue to rise with the heat wave spreading to many parts of the uk. a lot of people may be headed to the coast hoping for something a little bit cooler some sea breezes. it already received temperatures hitting 30 degrees in surrey in the sunshine on monday. you may be surprised to learn the temperatures could be as low as eight or 9 degrees first thing on tuesday morning. in rural parts of wales in

northern england, it's going to be warmer in northern scotland for the breeze being ploughed in a little bit of rain and that gets pushed away to get more sunshine developing in scotland and it will be a sunny day on tuesday in northern ireland and again across england and wales. sea breeze is a bit cooler and in the and temperatures continuing to rise among england and wales. 29-30 , 25 or rise among england and wales. 29—30 , 25 or so east of scotland and northern ireland. the heat is building underneath that area of high pressure and its building the rain to the far northwest of scotland. later on in the week, we will start to pick up in east or south easterly breeze that would draw in some the heat that we've got in western europe where it is hot in many places already. we not expecting to break any records this time however, by the end of the week i'm a temptress to the west of london could be reaching 36 celsius. as we head into wednesday, sunny skies and pretty much across the board, there will be breezy in the

far northwest of scotland but should stay dry here this temperatures are continuing to rise at 27 degrees and eastern parts of scotland and the northeast of england and 32 is likely to the midlands towards the east of england as well. that heat will linger for some time and you can see it maintain above 30 degrees in london to the weekend and it's not going to be as hard in scotland and northern ireland and temptress may start to drop a bit over the weekend. but the rain is been all or nothing since the 1st ofjuly and nothing since the 1st ofjuly and nothing across many parts of the uk and a lot of rain in the highlands of scotland. some people are looking for some rain and asking when it's going to come. of the signs are that early next week, with falling pressure, temperatures will be dropping and there could be some rain.
