today at one... pub bosses fear a wave of closures across the uk because of skyrocketing energy prices. they're calling for immediate government help, saying costs could shoot up,300%. we are still in negotiations, but we are expecting our gas bill to treble at the very least for a company of our size. the industry wants the household energy price cap, extended to businesses. also this lunchtime: the head of the un says pakistan is facing a "monsoon on steroids," as it launches an appeal, for millions hit by devastating floods. ukrainian forces claim to have broken through russian lines, in their major counter offensive, in the south. not tough enough — that's the criticism of government plans to limit water companies emptying sewage into the sea.

brown stuff in the water and it's very sort of like foamy. if it starts getting foamy, you get out quick. game, set and match, williams! and no farewell yet for serena williams after winning herfirst round match at the us open. and coming up in the sport later in the hour on the bbc news channel. scott parker pays the price for bournemouths the 9—0 defeat at anfield, e's the first maangerial sacking of the premier season. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. six of the uk's largest pub and brewing companies are warning that the industry's likely to be hit by a wave of closures

in the coming months because of rising energy prices. unlike households, businesses aren't covered by an energy price cap, and the fear is there could be higher costs of as much as 300%. in an open letter to the government, bosses are calling for the energy price cap to be extended to businesses. with more, here's theo leggett. a pint in a pub is part of the fabric of life in britain, but now the industry says it is under threat. energy costs have risen dramatically and some landlords are expecting their bills to travel this winter. to treble this winter. andrew taylor has been running this bar in london forfour years. as he recently told the bbc, his business made it through the pandemic, but the current crisis means he will soon have to make tough decisions. we are absorbing a lot of the increases that we have seen but there will become a time where we will start to have to start passing these onto the customer. it is incredibly concerning.

you know, this site has 15 full—time members of staff. we don't want to lose any of those. you know, they've been with us for a while. so, you know, it is always on the back of the mind. he is not alone. others within the industry say they are desperate for help. among them, the head of the brewhouse and kitchen chain. we need several areas of health, predominantly a business energy cap as soon as possible. we are an energy intensive sector and a desire big part of what we do. we provide warm environments, we cook food, my business brews on site. it is really important that we get some kind of car, some kind of support. even before the current crisis, pubs up and down the country were finding it difficult to make ends meet. the fear is that now, this could be the final straw and thousands may have to shut their doors for good, but it is notjust pubs that are struggling. small businesses throughout the economy are finding high energy costs a heavyweight to bear.

at this farm shop and cafe in leicestershire, electricity bills are set to soar from £17,000 to almost £76,000 a year. during the pandemic, the business had government backing, including and the eat out to help out scheme. the boss says support now is needed just as urgently. there is a £50,000 increase on the costs we have got. we can't afford it. not that long ago, they were asking people to come and eat here for free. we didn't ask for that and to be honest, we didn't need that, but now we actually genuinely need help to pay for electric, to keep the lights on and keep us cooking, so they have got to rethink what they are doing. the government says that no new policy will be announced until the new prime minister is in place. although it insists it will continue to support businesses through the winter. many pubs and other operators say urgent action is needed now, or they will soon be ringing up last orders for good. theo leggett, bbc news.

and it's being claimed many nurseries have closed for good during the current summer term than in previous years, because of rising energy bills, leading to a catastrophic reduction in places. the national day nurseries association says between april tojuly, 65% more nurseries have shut compared with the same period last year. the association is warning that this coming academic year could see record—breaking numbers of closures. our correspondent david wallace lockhart is at westminster for us. pubs lockhart is at westminster for us. are saying theyi go pubs are saying they fear they will go to the wall because there is no energy price cap for businesses, what is the government going to do to deal with these rocketing prices? it is less than a week until we know the next prime minister, but it sounds like businesses will have to wait until then, what, if any support they can expect. this leadership debate has been dominated

by the price increases that households are facing. even on that issue, neither rishi sunak or liz truss is completely spelt out what they will try do to help people with rising bills. when it comes to business, rishi sunak�*s teen are pointing out he was chancellor during the covid pandemic and in that bleak economic situation he stepped in to give business the support it needed. liz truss's allies are pointing to a couple of policies they help, reversing the rise in national insurance are not going ahead with the planned increase in corporation tax. given the scale of price increases, both candidates will face calls to go much further. the current chancellor is currently travelling to the united states. he will be meeting with bankers and officials over there, talking about what the treasury call international solutions to the cost of living crisis. we know he is preparing a list of options for either rishi sunak or liz truss to look at once

they get into downing street. i am sure he will be hearing loud calls from business, for them to be included on the list of potential groups that get help with all of this. labourare groups that get help with all of this. labour are not impressed he is out of the country at the moment i'm calling this trip an international chinwag. calling this trip an international chinwau. ., ~ , ., the united nations has launched an emergency appeal for almost £140 million to help pakistan deal with the devastating floods. the un secretaray general, antonio guterres, says the country was facing "a monsoon on steroids." provinces like sindh and balochistan in the south are the worst affected, but mountainous regions in the north—west have also been badly hit. our correspondent danjohnson has the very latest. so much of sindh province lies on the water after weeks of torrential monsoon rain. a third of the country has been affected and so many people

ukraine says it's successfully broken through russian lines, after beginning a counterattack in the south of the country. the fighting is around the city of hairson, our the fighting is around the city of kherson, which was seized by russia at the start of their invasion, back in february. president zelensky has urged russian troops to flee, but the kremlin claims the operation has been a failure. our correspondent, hugo bachega, is in kyiv. is there any sense of which version might be true, the russian sense that the ukrainians have failed or that the ukrainians have failed or that the ukrainians have failed or that the ukrainians have managed to break through russian lines? ciiee. break through russian lines? clive, it is incredibly _ break through russian lines? clive, it is incredibly hard _ break through russian lines? clive, it is incredibly hard to _ it is incredibly hard to independently verify those claims. the ukrainian military says russian ammunition depots and equipment have been hit. for weeks, ammunition depots and equipment have been hit. forweeks, ukrainians ammunition depots and equipment have been hit. for weeks, ukrainians have been hit. for weeks, ukrainians have been attacking russian positions, infrastructure and supply lines deep inside russian —controlled territory away from the front lines. this has only been possible because of the

sophisticated weapons being supplied by western countries. there has been a lot of speculation about whether the ukrainians would launch a counter offensive to retake kherson from the russians. we could be seeing the beginning of it. russia has occupied kherson since the beginning of the war and this is one of the largest cities in russian control. last night, president zelensky had a message to russian soldiers... if you want to survive, it is time to go home. we understand un nuclear inspectors _ it is time to go home. we understand un nuclear inspectors have _ it is time to go home. we understand un nuclear inspectors have arrived i un nuclear inspectors have arrived in kyiv, ever concern over the nuclear plant, the biggest in euroe? , nuclear plant, the biggest in euro e? , ., nuclear plant, the biggest in euroe? , ., ., europe? yes, the team of the international— europe? yes, the team of the international atomic _ europe? yes, the team of the international atomic agency i europe? yes, the team of the international atomic agency isj europe? yes, the team of the - international atomic agency is here, they are expected to travel to the nuclear power complex later this week. the ukrainian energy minister told me he hopes this mission could create a permanent presence at this nuclear complex.

the staff which is operating at the station under the pressure of russians should see that there is some... some sources of communication, especially with international experts. so that is very important because, i mean, they are physically and morally exhausted, and that is also very important that they should see that there are some people you could communicate to, not only russian soldiers with guns. an adviser to president zelensky has said russia has continually shelled the route to be used by the monitors, trying to force them to travel through russian —controlled territory. something ukraine has rejected. hugo, thank you for that. two 16 year—old boys have died in county londonderry, after getting into difficulty in the waters of enagh lough, yesterday evening. another boy was taken to hospital, and is being treated for non—life—threatening injuries. a 21—year—old who died after being

stabbed at notting hill carnival has been named as rapper takayo nembhard. known as tkorstretch, he was found with serious injuries at around eight o'clock last night in the ladbroke grove area. he later died in hospital. police say there were a number of other violent incidents after what had been a largely positive event. a week on from the fatal shooting of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel, police in liverpool have made more than 30 arrests in 2a hours as they crack down on organised crime. olivia was shot dead at her home on monday night. our north of england correspondent judith moritz is live in liverpool for us. bring us up today with the latest. as you say, just over a week since the horrific events here, a week since the street since olivia pratt—korbel lived and died. it

continues to be cordoned off as the police continue their work. we have been watching detective this morning going door—to—door. the extent of the police activity goes beyond the street, even this area, across the whole city. merseyside police have been clear throughout, the murder of olivia pratt—korbel did not happen in isolation. she is one of three people he was shot dead across merseyside within a week. they say they are in relentless pursuit of organised criminal gangs in this city. they say that as part of a wider operation, they have arrested more than 200 people for connections to those gangs and within the last 24 to those gangs and within the last 2a hours alone, 32 people have been arrested. merseyside police say they have had the assistance from offices from other forces who have come into help, such tasks as monitoring the roads in and out of the city and there are police monitoring vehicles coming in and out. they say there is

still a lot to do. they are being helped by members of the community, bringing it back to this area and around this place, they say they are getting information continually, which they are monitoring, acting on and that the officers, both uniformed and detectives who are trying to find out what happened here, will work relentlessly round—the—clock until those responsible are brought to justice. judith, thank you. our top story this lunchtime... pub bosses fear a wave of closures across the uk because of skyrocketing energy costs. they're calling for immediate government help. and coming up — the duchess of sussex says she upset the "dynamic of the hierarchy" of the royal family "just by existing". and coming up in the sport in the next 15 minutes on the bbc news channel, we'll look ahead to the second day at the us open, with emma raducanu due to start the defence of her title at flushing meadows.

in recent weeks, dozens of warnings have been issued for beaches and water courses in england and wales, because of raw sewage pumped by water companies. they say they have no choice during spells of heavy rain, but the government has announced a plan to tackle the issue in england. however critics say the new rules, don't go far enough. tim muffett has more from whitstable, in kent. all too often these swimmers in whitstable take an unlucky dip. it is effectively human excrement. anything from baby wipes, tampons, toilet roll. it's brown stuff in the water - and it's very sort of, like, foamy. if it starts getting - foamy, you get out quick! today the water seems clear, but heavy rain can leave the sea polluted for days. with sewerage pipes unable to cope, raw sewage is sometimes discharged into the sea. sos whitstable is a campaign group formed in response.

lots of people reporting to us that they've been sick from swimming — so ear infections, eye infections, and kind of bacterial infections resulting in sickness and diarrhoea. whitstable as a town, which is famous for its fish and its oysters, has suffered huge reputational and physical damage as a result of this saga. it is massively impacting the tourism, the hospitality, the fishing industries. it's not acceptable. sewage being discharged into the sea in sussex this month. around 50 beaches across england and wales have been given pollution warnings in august. it was just absolutely vile, wasn't it? gross. rebecca and alexa say the pollution monitoring apps and websites they checked gave them the all—clear before they went paddleboarding recently in whitstable. ijust thought, "oh, my goodness, that is raw sewage there, and my feet are in this." all the boards have been in it. i could see toilet paper, baby wipes, and there was just this kind of layer on the beach. so why is raw sewage sometimes discharged into the sea?

well, most of the uk has a combined sewerage system, which means that rainwater and waste water from toilets and bathrooms travels along the same pipes to sewage treatment works. but if it's been raining heavily, those pipes can be overwhelmed, potentially flooding treatment plants, roads — even people's homes. so to stop that happening, in exceptional circumstances, water companies can legally discharge raw sewage into rivers and the sea. but the circumstances have to be exceptional — otherwise water companies might be breaking the law. in july last year, southern water was fined a record £90 million for illegally dumping billions of litres of untreated sewage into the sea in hampshire, west sussex and kent. this separate incident was filmed in langstone harbour in hampshire in october of last year. thames water has been fined more than £30 million since 2017

for illegal sewage discharge. filmed by campaigners last winter, this seems to show raw sewage being released into the river thames. it's not clear whether this was an illegal discharge or not. given the option, though, of potentially flooding people's homes with raw sewage, or releasing that raw sewage into the sea — it's going to be the sea, isn't it? presently, the system is completely overwhelmed — that is correct, yes — and that's due to a lack of investment in the infrastructure since privatisation over 30 years ago. on friday, the government published a plan to tackle the problem in england. water companies will need to invest £56 billion over 25 years on infrastructure. by 2035, all storm overflows which discharge water into bathing areas will need to be improved. the environmental audit select committee assesses the impact of government policies on the environment. well, i welcome this plan — i mean, it's going to be increasing the capital investment by water companies into sorting out

the treatment of our waste water by more than double over the next 25 years. and that in itself was double the level that it was in the decade prior to privatisation. so i think it does show a significant commitment by the government to try to tackle this problem. sos whitstable says the government's plan is woefully inadequate — a huge failure which doesn't hold water companies to account. it wants the industry to be renationalised. in a statement, southern water said the discharges it sometimes releases into the sea were heavily diluted — typically being 95% rainwater. it was done to protect homes, schools and businesses from flooding. the appeal of sea swimming is strong enough for this group to continue for now — but without rapid improvement on pollution, some say it'll no longer be worth the risk. tim muffett, bbc news whitstable in kent.

that was the subject of a popular true crime podcast. chris dawson, who's 7a, had denied killing his wife lynette, who vanished from their home on sydney's northern beaches in 1982. phil mercer takes up the story. for a0 years, chris dawson had evaded justice — until today, being found guilty of murder here at the new south wales supreme court in sydney. the judge has demolished the defence's argument that chris dawson wasn't responsible for his wife's murder, justice ian harrison saying that although wholly circumstantial, the case against him was compelling and persuasive. christopher michael dawson, on the charge that on or about 8th of january 1982 at bayview or elsewhere in the state of new south wales you did murder lynette dawson, ifind you guilty. you may sit down. as for lynette dawson's family,

they'd be relieved, of course, at the guilty verdict, but for them, questions remained. how and where was she killed, and where is her body? a critical part of this case was the teacher's pet podcast. it was first broadcast in 2018 and led to a reinvigoration of the police investigation. it gave fresh impetus to the inquiry. later that year chris dawson was arrested and charged with murder. at 7a years of age, he may never see the light of day as a free man again. he is yet to be sentenced but could spend the rest of his life in prison. phil mercer, bbc news, in sydney. the duchess of sussex says she "upset the dynamic of the hierarchy" of the royal family "just by existing". in an interview with us magazine the cut, meghan, a1, talks about her exit from the royal family and said it "ta kes a lot of effort to forgive". she also spoke about prince harry's relationship with his father, the prince of wales. our royal correspondent

again. in terms of what she said in this magazine interview, this comment that she upset the dynamic of the hierarchy, what doshi actually mean by that? i know myself how much the palace bent over backwards to help her but the relationship simply did not work out. . ., relationship simply did not work out. w' ~ . relationship simply did not work out. ~ . . ., relationship simply did not work out. . . ., bournemouth had sacked their manager scott parker after just four games of the premier league season. his newly promoted side lost 9—0 liverpool at the weekend. gary o'neil will take interim charge of the team. serena williams has won her opening match of the us open in straight sets. the 23 time grand slam singles champion has already said this will be her last singles' tournament. it was also a good opening day for most of the british players including andy murray, as laura scott now reports from new york. andy murray! a decade since his first title here, andy murray's hips might have

changed but his hopes haven't. fighting back from an early break down, he showed he's still got it, while the 24th seed francisco cerundolo showed a touch of class, confessing that this ball bounced twice before he reached it. murray had to keep his cool to come through a tight first set, and from there life became easier, even if it didn't feel like it. cheering. that felt like five sets to me. very, very tricky conditions today, very humid and hot, but, yeah, i was really happy with the way i got through that one. at the top of the screen, that's another brit, harriet dart, who pulled off the performance of her life to shock the tenth seed, daria kasatkina, and herself, while the rapidly rising jack draper joined them in round two with a straight sets win. well, you only had to look at today's programme to see there really is only one story in town, and that's around serena williams's decision to make this her final tournament.

the 23—time grand slam champion is who many of these fans are here to see. doesn't give up, enthusiastic, she just goes for what she wants, and i love that about her. amazing player, the best female player of all time. i think that she is super great and i'm really sad that she is retiring. announcer: the greatest | of all time, serena williams! if this was to be her swansong, she made sure it was going to be sparkling. diamonds in her hair, the same beads she wore back in 1999, donned by her daughter. emotions were running high as every point was greeted like it was her last by a star—studded crowd that included a president, a pooch, and martina navratilova sitting next to mike tyson, while danka kovinic, the world number 80, struggled to find support

and her serve. serena's fans weren't ready for this to be the end. clearly, neither was she. game, set and match, williams! i think when you're passionate about something and you love something so much, it's always hard to walk away. sometimes i think it's harder to walk away than to not, and that's been the case for me, and so i've been trying to decide for a little while what to do. she's not walking awayjust yet — no, she's twirling her way to the second round. laura scott, bbc news, new york. all of the south—west of england is now in drought following some of the driest conditions in nearly 90 years. the environment agency say bristol, somerset, dorset, south gloucestershire and parts of wiltshire have all today moved to drought status. earlier this month devon, cornwall and the isles of scilly were also declared to be in a drought. matt taylor is here. another
