what do we want? 10%! the summer of strikes has reached felixstowe docks. these workers would normally be making sure essential goods find their way to households but today, 1,900 members of the unite union are starting an eight—day walk—out. we've spent nine months negotiating with the company and unfortunately, we haven't managed to reach a settlement. therefore, we felt we had no alternative but to take industrial action. i think a lot of people are behind us because they can relate. this is a time when everyone has been in a pinch with fuel, energy prices. keeps going up, and not enough's being done to help families that are struggling. they're being offered a 7% pay rise with a £500 one—off lump sum. they're asking for 10%, in line with inflation. a strike here threatens to disrupt supply chains across the uk. it's called the port of britain for a reason. about 4 million standard—size containers are moved in and out

of felixstowe every year, about half the uk total, filled with everything from food and consumer goods to car parts. but for the next eight days, nothing will be moving. the port of felixstowe is a very profitable business, and the union claims it could be more generous. the average wage here... but the company insists the current offer is fair and reasonable. it's because we're a successful company that we pay well, we pay 40% above national average. it's because we're successful and because we're profitable, we've managed to make an offer to our workers that we're really pleased with. the strike here follows a summer of walk—outs at rail operators across the uk and disputes at royal mail, british airways and bt. pressure is mounting on the incoming prime minister to set out a plan to tackle the rising cost of living. one of the features of all of these strikes is that there's no help from government. the government isn't helping people. it's not dealing with inflation.

it hasn't come forward with a plan. and when people feel that "government isn't helping us, the employers aren't helping us, nobody else is coming to our aid". the only thing left is to do it for themselves, to take industrial action. the department for transport said felixstowe is well set to mitigate disruption and supply chains are resilient, but unless there's movement in this dispute, nothing here will move for at least a week. marc ashdown, bbc news. 0ur political correspondent nick eardley is here. the latest in a series of strike over pay — another headache for the incoming prime minister? the in—tray for whoever the next prime minister is is looking pretty daunting, isn't it? not only have they got the predictions of a recession. not only have they got the cost of living crisis, but they are facing some of the most significant industrial unrest for decades. these strikes, some of them

have different reasons. but on pay, it comes down essentially to this. unions would say that because inflation is going up, patient too. but others caution that to keep inflation under control or to stop it going up even further, pay rises need to be limited. labour worn that the strikes are going to get worse because the cost of living crisis is going to get worse and there is no doubt this is going to be one of the big challenges for the next prime minister. rishi sunak�*s team say he will consider all options to try and stop strikes, to try and limit unrest. liz truss has said that within weeks of taking power, she would introduce new legislation to ensure minimum services during strike action. that sort of stuff is popular with tory members, the idea of taking on the unions. but solving those big economic challenges over inflation, the cost of living, trying to get the economy growing again, those are going to be

crucial. the answers aren't simple and they won't come overnight. mick and they won't come overnight. nick eardle . there are more updates, news and analysis on bbc news online, that's bbc.co.uk/news, and by using the bbc news app. the daughter of a prominent russian ultra—nationalist has been killed by a car bomb on the outskirts of moscow. darya dugina was a journalist and vocal supporter of the invasion of ukraine. there is speculation the target may have been her father, alexander dugin, whose calls for a new russian empire, challenging the west, are said to have influenced president putin. will vernon reports from moscow. a fireball on the streets of moscow. 30—year—old darya dugina, a political commentator, was killed when a bomb exploded in the car she was driving. at the scene, her father, alexsandr dugin, an ultra nationalist philosopher.

that maybe is not your truth. even if it's not true? but if the truth is relative, that doesn't mean that truth doesn't exist. the authorities have not yet said who was behind the attack. but russia's foreign ministry said if a link to ukraine were found, the attack would be state terror by the kyiv regime. an adviser to the ukrainian president denied his country was involved. car bombs and assassinations are rare in moscow. but as the war in ukraine grinds on, instability at home will be a cause for concern in the kremlin. will vernon, bbc news, moscow. the boxer, tyson fury, has called on the government to introduce tougher punishments for knife crime, after his cousin was stabbed to death in manchester last night. rico burton, who was 31, was attacked outside a bar in the city.

"we're devastated. "she was a wonderful person, adored notjust in the school "but in our village," her colleague saima told us. it's believed rajni was targeted because she was a hindu, a minority in the country's only muslim—majority region. teachers told us she feared for her life after a wave of killings of people from her community. translation: there had been a targeted killing of a hindu, .

just two kilometres away. she was scared and had applied for a transfer. kashmir�*s long—running and complex conflict started with the killings of hundreds of hindus, 30 years ago. but this minority has rarely been targeted since 2003. now it's facing a resurgent threat that's left hindu families terrified. these men work in governmentjobs and are demanding they be moved out of kashmir. sanjay kaul is a teacher at a public school. translation: if someone next to me takes their hands - out of their pockets, i feel they are going to pull out a gun to shoot me. we have stopped sending our children to school. and we hardly go out of our compound. insurgent groups say they're attacking minorities because the government is trying to change the religious make—up of kashmir.

the accusation stems from india's actions here three years ago. federal rule was imposed, outsiders allowed to buy land. leading to fears that india's hindu nationalist government wanted to alter the religious demographics of muslim—majority kashmir. distrust against the state soared. since 2019, things have gotten a lot worse. there is no elected government here and large sections of the police and bureaucracy are now officers from outside of the region, which means amongst local people here, there is a strong feeling that their voice is being suppressed and they don't have any say in the decisions that are being made to govern them. there are also allegations of killings of muslim civilians by indian security forces. we travelled to shopian in southern kashmir.

very good championships for great britain. jack laugher and anthony harding won the three metre synchro gold today for the team. that's all the sports for now. 0llie, thank you. time for a look at the weather. we seem to have had a bit of everything, louise. we started off a week ago with highs of 3a celsius, so it was a scorcher, but we broke the drought and then we broke the drought with significant rainfall totals for some but not all. look at holbeach in lincolnshire. they had 152 millimetres of rain and most of that fell in a five—hour period. it was way above the average for the time of year. but interestingly, just 20 miles down the road in parts of lincolnshire, some had very little rainfall at all. that's how i

selected it was. and that is likely to be the story as we go through tomorrow. this weatherfront is moving in and it's taking its time. it will bring some very heavy pulses of rain for a time, moving across northern ireland, stretching to north—west england and parts of wales. then as it drifts eastwards, it is going to weaken off a little as we go through the day. if we zoom out and look at some of the rain now starting to nudge further into southern scotland, it is only central and northern scotland staying fine and dry. warm ahead of the rain, which will be pretty showery into the south—east corner. as we move out of monday into tuesday, closest to this area of low pressure, that is where we will keep some showers. this weatherfront could keep us on our toes. it may drive in more in the way of showery rain from the south west into wales as we go through the day. how far

north that is going to go is still subject to question. but ahead of it, we will start to drag in semi—humid airacross it, we will start to drag in semi—humid air across the central and south—east parts of england. it stays pretty eclectic over the next few days. there will be showers at times. pretty warm into the south—east, but a heads up thing that i know it's a bank holiday weekend for northern ireland, england and wales and looks likely, fingers crossed, to dry up butjust be a bit fresher. well organised. the news continues on bbc one as it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. good evening. i'm lewis vaughanjones and you are watching the bbc news channel. some students are still waiting for their vocational exam results this morning — three days after they were due to get them. the exam boards pearson and 0cr have

apologised to pupils who have been affected. it's left some unable to confirm their university places. simon jones reports. hundreds of thousands of students received their exam results on thursday, allowing them to sort out their university places. but some btec students are still waiting to see how they did in their vocational courses. the exam board pearson won't reveal how many are affected, but says it's a very small percentage. the association of colleges isn't impressed. pearson won't tell us the numbers, but i know in some colleges there are several hundred students who haven't got their results from pearson. in any normal year there is a handful, perhaps, in a college. but hundreds is unprecedented. so we absolutely need pearson to openly investigate what went wrong, publish the findings and make sure this doesn't happen again. in a statement, pearson said: another exam board, 0cr,

is also apologising for delays in issuing cambridge technical�*s results, a vocational qualification with an emphasis on workplace skills. it says it has delivered more than 1,000 results in the last 2a hours. among those waiting is breanna butterworth, who studied health and social care. my anxiety has been absolutely through the roof, because, you know — it's not like the university is going to hold my place for ever. it's going to need to be taken up some time. the education secretary on twitter wrote: students affected are advised

to contact the university they are hoping to go to directly, and ask them to hold their place. simon jones, bbc news. a three—day state of alert is under way in portugal which is seeing devastating wildfires and drought this summer. the measure, which grants authorities special, temporary powers such as barring people from woodlands, is a response to forecasts of temperatures above a0 degrees celsius in what could be the country's third heatwave this summer. earlier i spoke to our correspondent, alison roberts, who gave us the latest from lisbon. a0 degrees yesterday in the interior of the country and that is really where the main problem is. today we have seen a number of major fires, eight burning at the moment, three of them of greatest concern because they have been burning for several hours. we have already seen in fact the rail line between lisbon and porto, the second city, with services suspended because of a fire in the centre of the country around fatima, which is where there

is a major catholic shrine, many visitors at this time of the year, and also in the northern interior of the country, at least one highway has been closed to traffic along one stretch, so these are developing situations, but it is precisely why the government has imposed this state of alert which among other things, as you mentioned, is to bar people from entering forest areas and also to prevent even farmers from using machinery, except in very specific circumstances. i just want to keep asking you about that state of alert, how unusual is it to be introduced there and what other restrictions does it entail? yes, so we had a state of alert back injuly, if you remember there was a major heatwave at that time and we had temperatures up to 47 degrees, which was a record forjuly, and there were heatwaves in other european countries, of course, particularly in southern europe, and essentially it is to enable the government to release funds for more firefighters, for example, faster,

that is the most important thing, but it has also introduced these restrictions i mentioned, which are above all to prevent fires being started by sparks for example from machinery or by carelessness of the public which is very often how these fires do start. how long is this expected to last? any sign that things will calm down? for now, based on the weather forecast we have, the government has declared a state of alert until midnight on tuesday. however, it will review that situation late on monday, so it could potentially be shortened, but it could also be lengthened and that is something we did see injuly with the state of alert lengthened repeatedly because of the high temperatures remained and underlying all this is notjust the temperatures, it is the extreme drought that the whole of mainland portugal is suffering, which has made its forests really very prone to any kind of fire and the fires

spreading once they do start. thanks to alison for that. now it's time for the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political reporter at the times, geri scott, and journalist and author, shaama perera. first and author, shaama perera. let's take a look at thl pages. the metro leads with tyson fury�*s call for the government to introduce harsher punishments for those who commit knife crime offences. it's after the boxing champion�*s cousin, rico burton, was stabbed to death in altrincham, greater manchester. and tyson fury is also on the front of the sun — after comparing knife crime to a "pandemic". two men have been arrested in connection with the incident — in which a 17—year—old also suffered serious injuries.
