but with a shortage of ringers and teachers, is bell ringing seen, perhaps unfairly, as a bit old fashioned? no, it's super cool. it's absolutely super cool. and no—one would ever believe that it wasn't. there is still enough time to learn before coronation day, and these new members know they will be part of something historic, and they hope to keep on ringing for many more years to come. jo black, bbc news in ipswich. time for a look at the weather. here's chris fawkes. quite appealing! as far as the weather goes we are bringing in the changes with more in the way of sunshine heading towards the weekend. today across eastern areas a lot of cloud around and patches of rain. west a tiny bit brighter that

we do have some showers. you can see the extent of the cloud across the country, some of the heavy showers working in across western scotland and northern ireland and across wales at the moment whereas across eastern scotland and central and eastern scotland and central and eastern england not much in the way of sunshine. most of that rain tending to come through quite light and patchy but nevertheless are not off through the afternoon. temperatures are lower than at the week but closer to average at this time of year. overnight cloud and rain becoming restricted to southern areas later in the night wears for scotland and northern ireland and northern england were looking at a cold night with a widespread frost. temperatures between zero and minus three celsius. tomorrow any cloud and rain across the south should move away quickly through the morning. high pressure building on and for a time that brings sunny

skies to northern ireland and scotland and a good part of england and wales. later in the date more rain arriving across northern scotland with a strengthening wind of up to 55 miles an hour. temperatures seven or eight celsius. but temperatures across northern areas quite slow to rise. quite a chilly morning in prospect. for friday weather front continues to move south across the country, both of these quite weak but nevertheless quite a lot of cloud moving across england and wales. something a bit brighterfor england and wales. something a bit brighter for scotland, england and wales. something a bit brighterfor scotland, northern brighter for scotland, northern england and brighterfor scotland, northern england and northern ireland. temperatures on friday around nine orio temperatures on friday around nine or 10 degrees. then we see further changes in the weather pattern for the weekend and into the early stage of next week. high pressure building and getting stronger and so as we go

through the weekend and into the early stage of next week a lot of dry weather to look forward to with some bright or sunny spells coming through widely. still a few patches of fog in the morning and some morning frost but nevertheless it will be set fair for this weekend. a reminder of our top story... shamima begum who left the uk when she was 15 tojoin shamima begum who left the uk when she was 15 to join the islamic state group in syria has lost an appeal against the government decision to take away her british citizenship. that's all from the bbc news at one — so it's goodbye from me — and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. good afternoon, i'm qasa alom, it's 1:30pm and here's your latest sports news. a decision is expected this afternoon on whether wales�* six nations match this saturday against englnad will go ahead.

the wales players have set today as the final deadline to come to an agreement with the wru to agree terms of a new contract or they'll go on strike. welsh coach warren gatland is hopeful both sides can come to an agreement and delayed naming his team yesterday. rugby commentator gareth rhys owen explains some of the sticking points. specifically, the idea that wages would be reduced, but in addition to 80% basic guaranteed, 20% dependent on player performances. how many games they play, how many games they win. if you look at the context right now, rugby players are being told, day after day, due to concussion and injury, they need to manage their workload, they need to sit these games out if they are not feeling ioo%. these contracts are suggesting the very opposite. i don't think the union and the regions will come to an agreement today, but the hope will be

that the players are given some assurances or some draft contracts that would appease them and allow this game to go ahead on saturday. england are looking to retain the arnold clark cup tonight when they face belgium at ashton gate. in a winner—takes—all match, the lionesses are on a record 28—match unbeaten streak under dutch manager sarina wiegman. despite rotating her squad throughout the tournament, wiegman is determined to add another trophy to her impressive cv as an international coach. we wa nt we want to win the tournament. we don't really know what the strongest ii don't really know what the strongest ii is at the moment, we don't have to know. but it shows that our team is good and it is hard to make decisions. england's leading wicket—ta ker james anderson has returned to the top of the international cricket council's test bowling rankings. at a0 years 207 days,

anderson is the oldest bowler to hold top spot since australian clarrie grimmett in 1936. anderson returned match figures of 7—54 in the first—test win in new zealand earlier this week to end australia captain pat cummins�* four—year reign at the top. the england seamer has has 682 test wickets, third on the all—time list behind sri lanka spinner muttiah muralitharan and late australia great shane warne. the second test starts in wellington on friday. there are concerns that closure of leisure centres, gyms and pools because of the ongoing energy price crisis, will increase the risks of drownings and harm britain's long—term olympic medal prospects. that's according to double olympic swimming champion rebecca adlington. she has joined 200 sports organisations and athletes in signing a letter which has been sent to the prime minister today. it contains a stark warning that government plans to cut the sector's funding support in april will leave grass routes

clubs struggling to pay to use facilities and may lose access, with some venues forced to shut permanently. it's going to happen, isn't it? across not only swimming but other sports as well — we shutdown for two years with covid, and now on the back of this, facilities are closing up and down the country. it has that knock—on effect for grassroots sports and then affecting the elite programme. there are fantastic sports that happen at the olympics, but it is one of those that we will start to see less and less, especially over the upcoming olympics, just because, how can people go to olympics for swimming if there are no swimming pools? that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport.

a british woman who joined the islamic state group has lost her legal challenge to regain her uk citizenship. shamima begum was fifteen years old when she travelled to syria, where she married an islamic state fighter. she was later stripped of her british citizenship on grounds of national security, but appealed against that decision. begum claimed she was a victim of human trafficking, we interrupt this story to bigger pictures from warsaw, where we see president biden walking into a meeting. he has been in the region all this week, paying, famously, a visit to kyiv earlier in the week. this all to mark the first anniversary of russian�*s invasion of ukraine. we know that he is speaking to a group who called themselves the

bucharest nine, the nine countries who were on the eastern flank of nato�*s territory. these will be some of the members of that group. an extraordinary summit of the nato bucharest nine. we are expecting some words from president biden. he is being hosted by the polish president, but also meeting other nato leaders.

just encase you are justjoining us now, we are showing you pictures live from warsaw, where president biden has been meeting nato leaders and, very specifically, the leaders of the bucharest nine, the nine countries on the eastern flank of nato�*s territory. he is, of course, on a visit of several days to the region. he was in kyiv the day before yesterday, on an historic visit, being flown in at some considerable security risk, meeting president zelensky. he has since beenin president zelensky. he has since been in poland, where he has had meetings with nato leaders. the

meetings with nato leaders. the meetings today are with those countries which will be in nearest proximity to russia, and they call themselves the bucharest nine. these meetings have been happening, of course, while president putin has been giving his own version of events. he gave his public address yesterday, speaking about the west and saying that it was the west that had triggered the aggression in ukraine, ratherthan had triggered the aggression in ukraine, rather than russia. we have seen today a meeting between president putin and a top—level chinese diplomat, amid fears in the

west that china is becoming closer to russia over this war. 0k, ok, we are going to leave that there. if president biden does come out and make a statement, we will go back to it immediately. let me take you back to our top domestic story. a british woman who joined the islamic state group has lost her legal challenge to regain her uk citizenship. shamima begum was fifteen years old when she travelled to syria, where she married an islamic state fighter. she was later stripped of her british citizenship on grounds of national security, but appealed against that decision. begum claimed she was a victim of human trafficking, and should be allowed to return to britain from the refugee camp in northern syria where she now lives. shamima begum's lawyers spoke outside the court after a judge said her appeal

had been fully dismissed. firstly, to state what must be very obvious, that this is an extraordinaryjudgment delivered in an extraordinary way, in which the commission is clearly deeply troubled by the case it is having to decide, and by the limitations placed upon it by the supreme court. the implication, the outcome that we face is that no british child who has been trafficked outside the uk will be protected by the british state if the home secretary invokes national security. state if the home secretary invokes nationalsecurity. i state if the home secretary invokes national security. i think you would like to say number of things, daniel, but we have a number of collective things to remind you of when you read the judgment.

suspicion that shamima begum was trafficked, that she was harboured by the traffickers until 2019, a credible suspicion that there were extraordinary failures within the uk in preventing her and herfriends from travelling. reading the factual underpinnings of what the commission considers to have been made out on her behalf, you would feel that there would be no way that she could not have succeeded in her appeal. but he will equally see repeated as a thread through the judgment how the commission invokes the supreme court's view that its role was limited and it cannot consider the merits of the case. it is limited to the most narrow grounds of administrative review. in consequence, you have a judgment in

which the court is effectively saying, as things stand now, we are stuck in a way that does not reflect the things we are finding. in stuck in a way that does not reflect the things we are finding.— the things we are finding. in terms ofthe the things we are finding. in terms of the legal _ the things we are finding. in terms of the legal fight, _ the things we are finding. in terms of the legal fight, it _ the things we are finding. in terms of the legal fight, it is _ the things we are finding. in terms of the legal fight, it is nowhere - of the legal fight, it is nowhere near— of the legal fight, it is nowhere near over~ _ of the legal fight, it is nowhere near over. we will not go into details — near over. we will not go into details about what that means at this stage. what else thisjudgment calls out— this stage. what else thisjudgment calls out for is some courage and some _ calls out for is some courage and some leadership from the home secretary— some leadership from the home secretary to look at this case a fresh. — secretary to look at this case a fresh. in — secretary to look at this case a fresh, in light of the clear and compelling findings that this court has made. thank you. we will challenge _ has made. thank you. we will challenge the decision, but it won't io challenge the decision, but it won't go into— challenge the decision, but it won't go into further details.— go into further details. there is no limit to the _ go into further details. there is no limit to the challenges, _ go into further details. there is no limit to the challenges, but - go into further details. there is no limit to the challenges, but they l limit to the challenges, but they include the government taking on responsibility for conducting their own review. will responsibility for conducting their own review— responsibility for conducting their own review. ~ , , , .,~ ., own review. will you be speaking to the family about _

can see president biden there, amongst the group is the president of poland. we are also expecting the nato secretary—general to attend the meeting. let's listen in. we, the leaders of the eastern flank have the duty to stand firm in defence of peace. we must continue to stand firm in delivering on our commitments to support ukraine for as long as it needs to win this war. this is what romania will continue to do, we are not alone in this endeavour. our effort is one of transatlantic scale and scope, and i welcome the presence today of

presidentjoseph biden, reconfirming the substance of our bucharest nine format and the commitment of the us administration towards the eastern flank's security. this commitment is solid and forward—looking. increased us military presence, that needs to continue, and the preparation of a us strategy for the black sea. i also welcome the participation of the nato secretary—general for timely and open coordination. almost one year ago, russia tried to destroy the european and euro atlantic security and the rules —based international order. russia is acting on a patent of aggressive conduct, which we have already

witnessed in the republic of moldova, in georgia and in ukraine itself to stop today, these spend partners need help to achieve lasting peace, prosperity, and we also strongly support ukraine's euro atlantic perspective. to make sure that this brutal war against ukraine is russia's final act, we must also be resolute in deterring further aggression and rolling back the current one. nato is standing strong and showing clear commitment towards ukraine and its people. the t9 is stronger than ever. —— db nine.

asking for nato to be more like finland, but finland ended up more like nato. i say to my fellow presidents i'm happy to be here with so many strong allies. the secretary—general has done an incredible job secretary—general has done an incrediblejob for a long secretary—general has done an incredible job for a long time. secretary—general has done an incrediblejob for a long time. i rely on hisjudgment incrediblejob for a long time. i rely on his judgment a great deal. the b9 was founded in 1919. as we approach the one—year anniversary of the further invasion, it is important that we continue to stand again. this is proof of how strongly we feel. that is why i wanted to meet all of you in person here today as nato's eastern flank, you are the front line of the collective defence. you know better than anyone what is at stake in this conflict,

notjust what is at stake in this conflict, not just for what is at stake in this conflict, notjust for ukraine but what is at stake in this conflict, not just for ukraine but for the freedom of democracy throughout europe and throughout the world. that is what president zelensky and i spoke about when i was in kyiv two days ago. the leaders around this table have repeatedly stepped up to reaffirm our shared commitment to these values. we provide critical security assistance to ukraine and critical support to refugees. we are ensuring that ukrainians can access basic services and, together, we will continue our enduring support for ukraine as they defend their freedom. over the past year, with your countries providing leadership, we have also strengthened nato. the commitment of the united states to nato, i have said it many times and i will say it again, is absolutely

clear. article five is a sacred commitment that the united states has made, we will defend every inch of nato, every inch of nato. this is an important moment, i look forward to the discussion at the next steps we can take together, and to keep our alliance strong and further deter aggression. what is at stake is notjust ukraine, it is freedom. the idea that nothing like that has happened, things have changed rapidly. we need to make sure that we change them back. so thank you for allowing me to be with you and i look forward to our private discussions.
