irate members of the public, got irate members of the public, because ultimately that's what you're there to do. the point she made speaks to this wider concern that so much of the british stage isn't working well at the moment. you've got covid backlogs completely blocking out the nhs and the court, but so many parts of the state people feel aren't functioning for them. i don't want to bring it back to the tory leadership contest, but this a real sense it's taking place in a hermetically sealed bubble where they talk about all sorts of predilections that are good for tory party members, but not necessarily matters for the general public. i think when the new prime minister comes in, he or she should be very aware there's a lot of anger, a lot of people like that lady in that clip who look around them and think, "things aren't working, what are you going to do about it?" and they need a better answer than mr barclay did. i feel like when something like that happens, you get an idea of who

government ministers are. and when you get the initial reaction and someone comes up unexpectedly, it is quite interesting, isn't it? yes. someone comes up unexpectedly, it is quite interesting, isn't it?— quite interesting, isn't it? yes, as sebastian was _ quite interesting, isn't it? yes, as sebastian was saying, _ quite interesting, isn't it? yes, as sebastian was saying, it's - quite interesting, isn't it? yes, as sebastian was saying, it's an - sebastian was saying, it's an opportunity to show a shred of humanity— opportunity to show a shred of humanity especially when you're stood _ humanity especially when you're stood outside hospital. but stephen barclay— stood outside hospital. but stephen barclay did not manage that — one on social_ barclay did not manage that — one on social media — barclay did not manage that — one on social media said the surprising thing _ social media said the surprising thing is — social media said the surprising thing is that anyone actually recognised steve barclay at all in walking _ recognised steve barclay at all in walking past him. but he just went to pieces. — walking past him. but he just went to pieces, he didn't know how to respond — to pieces, he didn't know how to respond at — to pieces, he didn't know how to respond at all and it's a real missed _ respond at all and it's a real missed opportunity. she wasjust saying what we were all thinking, and i_ saying what we were all thinking, and i feel— saying what we were all thinking, and i feel like we will hear, as sebastian _ and i feel like we will hear, as sebastian pointed out, it seems like many— sebastian pointed out, it seems like many areas — sebastian pointed out, it seems like many areas of the state are currently _ many areas of the state are currently failing, and we will hear this "you've — currently failing, and we will hear this "you've had 12 years" rhetoric, and it's— this "you've had 12 years" rhetoric, and it's going — this "you've had 12 years" rhetoric, and it's going to get louder and iouden — and it's going to get louder and louder. and quite rightly, because as the story on the front of the

this protocol is strongly disliked by boris johnson's this protocol is strongly disliked by borisjohnson's government, very much loathed by the unionist community within northern ireland because they see it as putting up an effective trade border between gb and ni, and thejohnson government has been struggling with this for some time. unilaterally override that which would break international law. article 16 which, if there is economic or societal damage resulting from it, it could suspend parts of the protocol. and this almost was triggered last year, but because of omicron and the partygate scandal, borisjohnson's government scandal, boris johnson's government didn't scandal, borisjohnson's government didn't do that at that point. but the foreign sector secret has come to the conclusion she used to do it soon. dutch foreign secretary. there's a deadline which means the uk has to respond to legal threats

from that point. it's a very important story because if liz truss does come in and trigger article 16, and that the eu will retaliate, they could do that by raising trade barriers which would just be with the economy needs at the moment when everything is starting to really turn for the worse, but it'll also very much mean the relationship between the uk and eu from the new government start off on a bad foot. now one must also note that liz truss has been speaking tonight and she was asked about whether emmanuel macron is a friend or foe she was asked about whether emmanuel macron is a friend orfoe — and she said, we will have to wait and see. that's not normally the answer you'd expect from the foreign secretary, never mind the future prime minister given the close economic ties and security ties with europe. many thought borisjohnson is gone and relations would become more stable, they are not and that clip tonight shows it could worsen under prime minister liz truss.—

good evening, i'm tulsen tollett, and this is your sports news — where we start with cricket, and england trail by 40 runs after the opening day of the second test against south africa at old trafford. the tourists won the toss and chose to bat, and england's veteran bowlers made the most of it — asjoe wilson reports. who put the old in old trafford? well, certainly not him, he'll never end. james anderson is a sprightly 40. edge of bat, catch and another batter baffled. that's the way he does it, playing here in his 100th test match on home soil. and that's unique territory. and then there's stuart broad. south africa's captain was dismissed here. dean elgar had chosen to bat first. with a dash of anderson and a thump of lbw, south africa were soon all out. first part of the job was done. so having bowled south africa out forjust 151, all england had to do

was come out and score some runs themselves. that's all, pretty simple. of course, it never is. ollie pope knows. south africa's bowlers are seriously good. but having lost three wickets quickly... ..jonny bairstow rebuilt steadily. that ball was going to the boundary and england will resume just 40 runs behind. zak crawley is out of form, but persevering, still there. yeah, well done, head up. still four days of opportunity — if required. joe wilson, bbc news, old trafford. we are in a really good place to bat first. you get... bring suspenders into play and can offer a little bit a variable bounce as the game goes on. but the overheads as a bowling group this morning, we got together and fancy having a bowl. but like

the clouds would help the ball move a little bit, and whether we could try to make some early inroads. sol wasn't disappointed to lose at all because there's always a release of pressure a team wins a toss and bat, and you go out and bowl. ex—england batter gary ballance has apologised to azeem rafiq for using racist language against his former yorkshire team—mate. details of racial abuse at the county emerged in september 2020, when rafiq said discrimination had left him feeling suicidal. ballance made the apology in—person during a meeting with rafiq in london this week. we met face—to—face in london, it was hosted byjulian methanol from the pca. it was very genuine, it was incredibly moving. and it's been really helpful on a human level for myself, and i'm sure the same for gary, as well, for us to start putting our lives back together.

moving to football — liverpool and rangers will meet in the champions league group stage, while manchester city's erling haaland is set to face his old club, borussia dortmund. scottish champions celtic are in the same group, as holders real madrid and chelsea face ac milan. group stage debutants eintracht frankfurt are in the same group as tottenham. bayern munich, barcelona, and inter milan have all been drawn in the same group. west ham will also be in tomorrow's draw for the group stages of the europa conference league. they beat danish side viborg 3—0 in the second leg of their qualifier — progressing 6—1 on aggregate. and they will also be joined by hearts, who drop into the europa conference league after a 1—0 defeat to swiss side fc zurich in the second leg of their europa league play—off, losing 3—1 on aggregate. sadly, linfield will not be in tomorrow's draw.

they have crashed out, thanks in part to an own goal from jimmy callagher in the last minute of extra time against latvian's rfs, which saw it finish 1—1 on the night and 3—3 on aggregate. the northern irish side went on to lose on penalties, and have missed the chance to become the first irish league club to qualify for a european group stage. england manager sarina wiegman has been named uefa women's coach of the year, after leading the lionesses to a historic victory at the euros. wiegman beat lyon manager sonia bompastor and germany coach martina voss—tecklenburg to the award after leading england's women to their first major tournament success. andy murray will begin his us open campaign against the argentine francisco cerundolo — while cameron norrie, the world number nine, will start against frenchman benoit paire when the tournament gets under way on monday. defending champion emma raducanu will also face a french opponent — starting against world number 37, alize cornet. elsewhere, harriet dart will take on the tenth seed, daria kasatkina, dan evans will playjiri vesely, and kyle edmund starts against casper ruud.

one man who wont be competing at flushing meadows is three—time champion novak djokovic. the winner of 21 grand slams today confirmed that he won't be travelling to new york, because he has not had a covid—19 vaccine. since october 2021, the united states has banned non—vaccinated visitors. britain's tao geogheghan hart moved up to seventh in the overall standings, after stage six of the vuelta a espana, which took place in torrid conditions as the riders set off from bilbao in the first summit finish of the race. and the stage, trust me, was eventually won by australia's jay vine, with new overall leader remco evenepoel in second. trust me, they did finish, the gps was working. toulouse's time in rugby league's super league is over, after just one season. the french side have been relegated

after being beaten 24—14 at home to fellow french team, catalans dragons. fouad yaha with a hat—trick for the away side, who get the point they needed to secure their place in the play—offs. wins too for wakefield, salford, and castleford. and you can read more on that on the bbc sport website. but that's all the sport for now. hello there. the torrential downpour is which drenched some parts of southern and eastern england have been clearing away. the back edge of that turbulent weather there for a weather watcher in essex. this is how that rain developed and swept its way northwards — around 5000 lightning strikes moved through during the first part of the day, plenty more rain behind that as well, only slow leak earlier and away eastwards. and in some places, let's take bury st. edmunds for example, we've had more than a

month's amount of rain. we would normally see more in the whole month of august. at that weather has done is swept away the humidity. so tonight will be much cooler, much fresher, 1—2 fog patch is developing through the midlands, east anglia, the southeast, clear spells, a cool fresh night. a cloud rain showers for northern ireland as part of southwest scotland, northwest england, wales and the southwest, and this zone of cloudy and showery weather will slowly move a little further eastwards as we go through the day tomorrow. some sunshine down to the southeast but generally more clouded by the afternoon. scotland likely to stay quite sunny. top temperatures between 7—24 c with a much cooler, fresher field than we've been use to of late. and as we head into the weekend, it's a bank holiday for most of us, of course, and the weather is looking predominately dry with sunny spells. there will just predominately dry with sunny spells. there willjust be 1—2 showers, this is saturday's whether outlook was

largely dry conditions, just 1—2 showers there in a few places on the map. this area of cloudy and wet weather getting perilously close to northern ireland and western scotland but not making much of an impact. out of saturday into sunday, we will have high pressure to the north of the uk, and this weather set up will start to bring us a fairly keen northeasterly breeze, blowing onto these north sea coasts. that could well generate 1—2 showers, bringing more cloud and also a decidedly cool field to the weather. so temperatures from aberdeen to newcastle and hall stuck in the teens. further west, 24 celsius the high encarta. looking ahead to monday, mainly dry, some spells of sunshine, temperatures in the high teens or low 20 celsius.
