she could do that is create a cabinet which would reflect all wings of the party, whether that is brexiteers and remainers, more left of the party, the right, people from the north, the midlands and the south. create a cabinet that reflects the broad church of the conservative party. it seems to be cabinet of loyalists, her long—time allies. i'm not sure that is going to do a lot to bring the party together at a time when it needs to be coherent. it is all rumours at the moment and conjecture. the moment and con'ecture. there is a generational— the moment and conjecture. there is a generational problem _ the moment and conjecture. there is a generational problem for— the moment and conjecture. there is a generational problem for the - a generational problem for the conservatives. borisjohnson was so reluctant to reshuffle, he would not change his cabinet very often over his term as prime minister and that gave pent—up frustration on the

backbenches for talent hasn't yet flourished. then you get the other side, liz truss didn't have many of her cabinet colleague backing her, which presumably gives her a free range argument. she doesn't have quite so many debts to repay? that is robabl quite so many debts to repay? that is probably true _ quite so many debts to repay? trust is probably true and it is also interesting to see some of those people who have not had ministerial roles for four have been brought in this few weeks cabinet boris johnson has this few weeks cabinet borisjohnson has an some of them might be able to hold on to morejunior roles. but what it looks like at the moment, liz truss will have people she trusts around her, which is important, but you'll have to do a lot of outreach to other wings of the party as well.— lot of outreach to other wings of the party as well. thank you so much for now, the party as well. thank you so much for now. we — the party as well. thank you so much for now, we will— the party as well. thank you so much for now, we will talk— the party as well. thank you so much for now, we will talk a _ the party as well. thank you so much for now, we will talk a bit _ the party as well. thank you so much for now, we will talk a bit about - for now, we will talk a bit about britain's relationship with france in the next review at 11.30. we will have more from the paper then. in the meantime we have sport and

weather coming up and i will be back with the international news. so stay with the international news. so stay with us on bbc news. good evening. i'm olly foster with the latest from the bbc sport centre. it's been another good day for england's cricketers as they look to level the test series against south africa. captain ben stokes and ben foakes both scored centuries on day two of the second test to lead the tourists by 241 runs. our sports correspondentjoe wilson was at old trafford. you don't always choose your partner at the test match. i think they are friends. but this is the combination that changed the game. ben stokes has been addressing so many issues recently, can he combine the best of his batting with the responsibilities as captain but absolutely. south africa put faith

in their spin bowlers, stokes enjoyed them. ben foakes, an outstanding wicketkeeper was overlooked by england because of his perceived limitations as a batter. having played the supporting role, he took the initiative. in this match, may be in his career. personal delight of a 113 not out, but the stokes culture is everything for the team. a total of 415 meant a first innings lead of 264. it is first innings lead of 264. it is very obvious _ first innings lead of 264. it is very obvious how— first innings lead of 264. it 3 very obvious how positive the vibe is and how much everyone backs each other. i think it is a very positive environment to be in. do other. i think it is a very positive environment to be in.— environment to be in. do you remember — environment to be in. do you remember how— environment to be in. do you remember how thoroughly i environment to be in. do you - remember how thoroughly england environment to be in. do you _ remember how thoroughly england were outplayed at lord's. it is remarkable how quickly they have turned things around here. but the match is not over yet. england require wickets. nojoy match is not over yet. england require wickets. no joy so far, chances will come. south africa in their second innings are a long way behind with a long time to play.

that is a combination england should enjoy. which name do you choose, stokes, or foakes? sso that's the state of play, with three days left. south africa captain dean elgar and fellow opener sarel elwee will resume on saturday, 23—0 in their second innings, still trailing by 241 runs. south africa are one up in the three—test series, but england are odds—on to level the series. today's double—header in the hundred was in cardiff. welsh fire women have their first win in this year's competition. they beat northern superchargers by 11 runs at sophia gardens. the victory hadn't looked likely with superchargers cruising towards their target of 124. but they collapsed, with some great bowling at the death. nicola carey took three wickets for welsh fire to help secure the victory. welsh fire men are still waiting for their first win as they lost by six wickets to the superchargers. fire were restricted to 114—4 on a very slow pitch, ben duckett top—scoring with 64 and the superchargers chased down

the target with nine balls to spare. the superchargers are sixth in the table, keeping alive their hopes of reaching the eliminators. fire are rock bottom with seven defeats from seven. chelsea manager thomas tuchel has lost his appeal against a touchline ban so will be missing from the dugout against leicester at stamford bridge in the premier league tomorrow. he was penalised after clashing with the spurs manager antonio conte almost a fortnight ago. the italian escaped with just a fine after the disciplinary panel found that the german had instigated the flashpoint, something he strongly disagrees with. it is hard to accept as the context that i do not think i started the aggression and started earlier, and i do not think i was the only person involved and we both got a red card, and a player pulled another player by their hair two minutes earlier. he can play earlier, he has not banned and for a firm

handshake at the end of the match, one coach is very hard to accept but i have to accept it, but putting it into context, i can absolutely not understand that. couple of premier league transfers have gone through today. newcastle have broken their transfer record, signing 22—year—old swedish striker alexander isak from real sociedad for about £60 million. everton have signed the brighton forward neal maupay for an undisclosed fee. the frenchman is the sixth player to arrive at goodison park this summer. he's signed a three—year contract with an option of a further year. maupay scored 26 premier league goals during his three—year spell with the seagulls. sheffield united could have moved four points clear at the top of the championship but drew 1—1 away at luton this evening. united's oli mcburnie scored the equaliser, a well—taken volley after the break. they are unbeaten since the opening weekend and sit two points ahead of watford at the top of the table, who play tomorrow. luton move up to 17th with the point. in super league, st helens could've clinched the league leaders shield tonight, but lost 30—10

to their great rivals wigan. the warriors led 18—2 at the break and the league's top try—scorer bevan french rounded off a great night for wigan, his second of the match was his 29th of the season. that sealed at least second for wigan and a semi—final spot. saints need just a point from their last two games to take the leaders shield. formula one is back ater its month—long break. it's the belgian grand prix on sunday, practice at spa today. the two title rivals max verstappen and charles leclerc were first and second fastest in the last session but will start from the back of the grid after engine and gearbox penalties. verstappen leads the championship by 80 points with nine races left. jesus herrada won a thrilling stage seven of the vuelta a espana. the spaniard timed his sprint to perfection and held off italy's samuele battistella to win the second stage of his career. belgium's remco evenepoel retained his 21—second lead over

france's rudy molard in the general classification whilst primoz roglic remains fourth overall. and that's all the sport for now. hello. we ended the week that some fairly quiet weather and that is how it will continue into the weekend. for many others it is the august bank holiday weekend. plenty of sunny spells on offer, a few showers but it will become breezy, particularly by monday. really quite cool on the north sea coasts. at the moment the weather is quiet, weather systems in the atlantic and that is a chance this weather front will brush the north—west of the uk through saturday, but this isn't what it looks like the early hours of saturday. clear spells, the odd local shower. temperatures 15 in

london, 8 degrees in the lowlands of scotland. this is the weather front which will brush part of northern ireland and the western isles of scotland. just bits and spots of rain here and there but through the afternoon, sunny spells will give way to showers in a few areas, perhaps the pennines, central england and saturday sees the notting hill carnival, or the return of the notting hill carnival since before covid. sunny spells in london and a small chance of a shower. onto the forecast for sunday and again, another fine day. the forecast for sunday and again, anotherfine day. fine the forecast for sunday and again, another fine day. fine weather for most of northern ireland and the western isles of scotland as well. best temperatures in south—western parts of the uk, 25 cardiff, closer to the low 20s on the north sea coast. monday, we are going to see the high pressure strengthening across the uk and also around it, it will develop quite a strong breeze blowing off the north sea which will drag in some low cloud. so from the

aberdeenshire coastline, the north—east, east anglia and the kent coast, it might turn quite cloudy. coastal areas will be quite chilly and the best of the weather will be out towards the west and the highest temperatures here, perhaps around the mid 20s for cardiff. if you are in scarborough, for example, it could only be 16 degrees with a keen breeze off the north sea. how about the week ahead? with high pressure and charge the weather is not looking bad, very little rain in the forecast with steady temperatures in the mid 20s in the south and the high teens in the north. have great weekend.
