global where we will be bringing you the top stories from around the world. we start with donald trump because charges against him have been unsealed in the last few minutes, by a us federal court. there are 37 criminal counts that include conspiracy to obstructjustice counts that include conspiracy to obstruct justice and counts that include conspiracy to obstructjustice and retaining a classified government documents. documents include information on foreign states to make defence capabilities and weaknesses, as well as the us nuclear programme. if found guilty, donald trump potentially faces years in prison, and mr trump, who potentially faces years in prison, and mrtrump, who is potentially faces years in prison, and mr trump, who is a frontrunner for the 2024 republican presidential nomination says he is innocent. we go straight to our correspondent jessica parker in washington for us. they have just been released, and expecting that you are still looking at the documents, so are we, at 37, talk is through as many as you have read. , . ., read. yes, there are quite a few ”aes read. yes, there are quite a few “aes to read. yes, there are quite a few pages to read — read. yes, there are quite a few pages to read through. - read. yes, there are quite a few pages to read through. we - read. yes, there are quite a few pages to read through. we are i read. yes, there are quite a few - pages to read through. we are doing so as we speak, butjust to bring

you the headlines, as you have said, 37 counts. 3i you the headlines, as you have said, 37 counts. 31 of them are the wilful retention of national defence information, then there is a count and conspiracy to obstructjustice, that the former president is facing, with holding a document or a record number one account of corruptly concealing a document or record... a count of scheming to conceal, a count of scheming to conceal, a count of scheming to conceal, a count of false statements and representation. lots to wade through. i started representation. lots to wade through. istarted reading representation. lots to wade through. i started reading this indictment and as we say, the significance is, that we met last night that donald trump had been invited, because he told us so, the department ofjustice were not commenting. now they have released the full set of charges that mr trump is facing. he says that he has done nothing wrong. to bring you some of the snippet i have read so far, it says that, over the course of his presidency, trump gathered newspapers clippings, and in

cardboard boxes that he kept at the white house. hundreds... among —— amongst the material that he still, there were hundreds of classified documents. it goes on to say little later that trump ceased to be present at i2p in january the 20th, 2021, and present at 12p in january the 20th, 2021, and he caused scores of boxes, many of which contained classified documents, to be transported to the mar lego club in palm beach in florida, where he maintained his residence and it quite rightly states here that he was not classified to possess those documents. —— mara lago. this result, it was the property where thousands of documents were seized by investigators last summer. then it goes on to say on two occasions, in a 2021, donald trump showed classified documents to others. there seems to have been one incident, they say, injuly 2021, at trump's national golf club in bedminster, newjersey, where we are

told by his team that he is at the moment, and they are saying there is an audio recorded meeting with a writer, publisher, tomb of the members of his staff, none of whom possess the security clearance. he is describing a plan of attack, supposedly, and then in august, september, a 2021, again at westminster, he showed a representative of his action plan, a classified map, to someone without clearance, related to a military operation. those are just some of the bits i have read through. there is lots to delve through. thea;a the bits i have read through. there is lots to delve through.— is lots to delve through. they say seized 11.000 _ is lots to delve through. they say seized 11,000 -- _ is lots to delve through. they say seized 11,000 -- they _ is lots to delve through. they say seized 11,000 -- they have - is lots to delve through. they say | seized 11,000 -- they have seized seized 11,000 —— they have seized 11,000 documents. some of those were marked as classified, some as top secret. we have talked before about cases that have happened against trump, but when you read this one, in terms of the other cases that have been announced against him and the impact it has had on him, or on his support, when you see all of

these details here, do you think this feels hugely significant? in a significant. _ this feels hugely significant? in a significant. in — this feels hugely significant? in —. significant, in the sense that this is the first time a former president has faced federal criminal charges. thatin has faced federal criminal charges. that in itself is six significant —— is significant. you might remember that back in april, he appeared in court in new york, and it states charges to do with accusations of falsifying business records related to hush money payment. this is a federal level set of charges. donald trump is, again, making headlines and making history. as you are saying, how will this impact to support? obviously, we don't actually know for certain how this will impact his support. we do know is that he is trying to harness what is that he is trying to harness what is happening by saying he is the subject of a political witchhunt, and his hard core base of supporters, many of whom really do buy into that narrative. we also know that when he appeared for that of the a separate legal case which he also denied wrongdoing in april,

in new york after that, his ratings amongst republican primary voters did not go down. his friend up. we cannot draw definite conclusions as to how this is going to play out for him. —— his ratings went up. this will be clearly be placating about how he can have a successful potential campaign and also face this trial. he is saying that he is facing a witchhunt, and he is trying to marry them, the tactics. he is misusing as part of his campaign. yes, it does seem that he is using it to fund his campaign. what will his argument be? most analysts are saying that he was just as president and a former president, he had a special privileges and therefore, was allowed to these documents? he has was allowed to these documents? he: has been asked about this, including at a cnn at town hall debate. he kind of did talk, i can't quote him

verbatim, but about being able, to declassify certain documents. but he has maintained that he has not done anything wrong. there will be a question as well about these claims here, clearly, that there are some sort of deliberate actions on his part. there have been other cases of politicians, including joe biden from his time as vice president where classified documents have ended up in places where they should not be. there is a question of whether deliberate or was this accidental? the issue of intent will be central to this case. donald trump's legal team, which, incidentally, he has shaken up this afternoon, and it seems to have changed the top people in that legal team, when they were talking last night, they were saying they haven't seen the indictment either, they were aware roughly of what kind of charges he might be facing, so their exact defence charge by charge, count by count, we will have to see what they say to that, because they will be poring over these documents as well. i'm not exactly sure when they got them, but they were saying

last night that they did not have them. ., ~ ,, last night that they did not have them. ., ~ i. . last night that they did not have them. ., ~ . , them. thank you so much, jessica parker there _ them. thank you so much, jessica parker there for _ them. thank you so much, jessica parker there for us. _ them. thank you so much, jessica parker there for us. we _ them. thank you so much, jessica parker there for us. we will- them. thank you so much, jessica parker there for us. we will let. them. thank you so much, jessical parker there for us. we will let you go away and read some of that is perhaps come back to us and update us when you have had a final look through all of it! we bring daniel littman from the news website politico. what is your reaction to this? there are some hugely serious things there?— things there? there definitely are. this is a historic _ things there? there definitely are. this is a historic moment - things there? there definitely are. this is a historic moment in - things there? there definitely are. i this is a historic moment in america because no former president has ever been charged federally with the crime. i think the short—term is that trump will have to go on tuesday to get arrested again, appear in court, and i think his voters are rallying around him, but for a general election, it is going to be tough because i think there is a lot of suburban voters who are all

about fighting crime, rule of law, law and order, and they don't like it either. there is only a small percentage of americans who decide elections in america, and that is the type of person who is turned off from this and this is a reminder of the chaos of the trump years, and thatis the chaos of the trump years, and that is not going to help his chancesin that is not going to help his chances in the general election. i suppose a lot will depend on how the democrats use it, perhaps, to their advantage or otherwise. yes. democrats use it, perhaps, to their advantage or otherwise.— advantage or otherwise. yes, the democrats _ advantage or otherwise. yes, the democrats have _ advantage or otherwise. yes, the democrats have to _ advantage or otherwise. yes, the democrats have to be _ advantage or otherwise. yes, the democrats have to be careful- advantage or otherwise. yes, the - democrats have to be careful because they have to maintain the appearance and they say it is a reality of a judicial and of independence, but right now for the trump campaign is saying that this is the biden administration, trying to take out the top political opponent. someone who is a declared candidate for president. the biden illustration what it has to do, is say, biden has said this is up to the special

counsel, this was not a preordained outcome of charges, this is where something is above board, everything is above the board, and by the book must be had to go to a jury. that is one reason why it is in miami because they did not want to try to haveitin because they did not want to try to have it in washington and then the judges could say, well, this is not the right venue. he did not cause the right venue. he did not cause the crime in washington, it is because mar a lago in palm beach, and they do not want to have a venue change that is forced upon them by the court. even though there are more of the republican establishment in miami, so it is going to be harderto get him in miami, so it is going to be harder to get him to get convicted. yes, we have seen the last half—hour that president biden was asked directly to comment on this and he said, no comment, he said he did not want to say anything about this. it has been interesting in the last 24 hours, to see the republican reaction to this, which has been broadly supportive and particularly from the people who are really running against him in the fight for

the nomination of the republican nomination. they are backing him on this. ., , ., , nomination. they are backing him on this. ., i. , . ,, this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence _ this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence said _ this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence said this _ this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence said this was - this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence said this was a - this. not everyone is backing him. mike pence said this was a very i mike pence said this was a very serious day, but ron de santis, they were going... they were supporting them. i think the people who are against him in the primaries, they are struck by the irony of how trump was able to get in power in the first place, back in 2016. remember ten days before the election, hillary clinton was the target of an fbi probe about her handling of classified information and that e—mail server, and trump attacked her vigorously, she was not protecting the secrets of the country, now he is accused of the same thing. there is a supreme irony here that he is now account of the pot calling the kettle black ear. —— he is the pot.

change the republican party back to the ronald reagan area or thejudge w bush area of compassion. this is a totally different party. this has been reshaped by donald trump, he is a strong... it has a stranglehold on his voters, they love him for taking it to the establishment, and i think this gives the anti—trump republicans some ammunition to say, hey, this guy is an alleged felon, and we will wait to see what the jury and we will wait to see what the jury says, of course, if he is presumed innocent. this makes him... if he loses the election again next year, and he is injail, the next few years after that, then it is going to be hard for him to run in 2028. i think this is... that could happen, in terms of taking him off the stage and his voters have to evaluate whether he was a good president, whether he was accused of

doing all of these that bad things. because the details are still coming through, let mejust because the details are still coming through, let me just read them out for the benefit of people just tuning just like tuning in. for the benefit of people just tuningjust like tuning in. me for the benefit of people 'ust tuning just like tuning in. tuningjust like tuning in. we are talkin: tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about _ tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about 31 _ tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about 31 of _ tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about 31 of the _ tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about 31 of the counts - tuningjust like tuning in. we are talking about 31 of the counts of| talking about 31 of the counts of wilful retention of national defence information, one count of conspiracy to obstructjustice, one of withholding a document or record, one count of corruptly concealing a document, and another one, concealing a document any federal investigation, one of scheme to fit concealed... —— the scheme to conceal... they say that some of the document also stored totally boring, a a bedroom, former president's residence in mar a lago was not an authorised location for the storage or discussion of classified documents. the indictment says that they were stored in those places, also in office space and a storage room. i suppose the issue that the democrats have and actually have

just seen another quote coming through from biden in the last few minutes, saying that he had no contact with the justice department over the trump case. i suppose the problem that the democrats have when they come to this is that president biden himself also was rapped on the knuckles, for keeping a document at his house. —— documents. iie knuckles, for keeping a document at his house. —— documents. he is knuckles, for keeping a document at his house. -- documents.— his house. -- documents. he is and he is under— his house. -- documents. he is and he is under investigation _ his house. -- documents. he is and he is under investigation still - his house. -- documents. he is and he is under investigation still for - he is under investigation still for that. we don't expect charges for that. we don't expect charges for that. the intent to... it is not like joe that. the intent to... it is not likejoe biden was being repeatedly told by the national archives, and the fbi, for example, to give the documents back. his only team discovered when they were packing up the pen biden centre in washington, dc, they found the documents and they turned them over. mike pence did the same thing and he was actually cleared and is not going to get charged for that. if trump...

once trump had been contacted by the national archives, once trump had been contacted by the nationalarchives, back once trump had been contacted by the national archives, back a few years ago, and if he had turned everything over, i don't think he would be facing this today because he could have said, o facing this today because he could have said, 0 come in a rush to pack up have said, 0 come in a rush to pack up the white house, i took documents i shouldn't have. he seems to kind have been a pack rat, then one of those documents and he likes to show them around to people, but that habit is now getting him in trouble. thank you for talking to us, daniel littman from the news website politico as we go through those 37 criminal counts, which have been released today, in the last half hour or so, we have been getting a statement through. we'll keep going through all of those documents that have been released and we will get more on it a little later in the programme. grab and across the uk —— around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. the government has announced that the windfall tax on oil and gas firms will be suspended if

appropriate people to go into the house of lords. there are committees that look at other honours like knighthoods, and i have no idea whether the prime minister's particular list has gone through those honours committees. really, we should not have this system, particularly, when you have a prime minister who is awaiting the report of the privileges committee of the house of commons, as to whether a deliberately misled parliament during the whole covid—19 business. i think the prime minister, in recent times, has been faced to charge by the metropolitan police and have to pay a fine. just to produce this list. as it turns out, he has let down one of

his friends, nadine dorries, and we don't know if that has anything to don't know if that has anything to do with not being included in the list. in do with not being included in the list. , ., ~ , list. in terms of the prime minister havin: a list. in terms of the prime minister having a way _ list. in terms of the prime minister having a way of _ list. in terms of the prime minister having a way of rewarding - list. in terms of the prime minister having a way of rewarding loyalty l having a way of rewarding loyalty for people, it is a tool that they have in these times when it they often need a loyal friends have in these times when it they often need a loyalfriends he have in these times when it they often need a loyal friends he will be the only ones who will go out on camera, face the media when no one else will, when they are having difficult times. i suppose it is quite a motivating factor, isn't it? we have run out of time, i'm sorry to say, but thank you very much for joining us, so alistair graham, former committee chair of the committee of standards. thank you very much forjoining us. i'm lucy graham, thank you very much for your company. hello. it has been the hottest day of the year so far with highs

hitting 28.8 in north—west wales. your house they had temperature is into the high 20s across southern england. it is set to be even hotter this weekend, with a tablet is up to 30 degrees. how unusual is that? we get 30 degrees or more everyjune. many of us look forward to these hot spells of weather, some of us really hate the heat, but one or two people with underlying health conditions, the heat cookout —— can cause problems, and for that reason, heat health alert has been issued. as well as the hot weather, we will see some thunderstorms over the next few days. we need the right combination of temperature and humidity to make the storms. i think the community will be key, how much moisture there is in the atmosphere. tonight, it is largely dry, a little bit of that low cloud coming in, back across north—east of scotland, north—eastern parts of england as well. it will be quite cool here, but temperatures at 13 or 14 for cardiff and london as overnight lows. tomorrow, it is hot and sunny for the vast majority of the uk and for the vast majority of the uk and

for many of us, it will stay dry. you can see the winds bashing together across wales and south—west england. that will push up the amount of moisture there is in the atmosphere across this part of the world and it will be that that is important for making some big and great downpours. they could be down —— they could be torrential, bringing flash flooding, some of those, but is hot and sunny for most of us, and that which is peaking at 30 degrees. it will stay warm overnight as well, at bed time, temperatures are still up into the 20s for some. sunday, this time, the greatest supply of moisture, the winds are bashing together is more across parts of scotland, northern ireland, wales and west in england. notice the winds coming in from the east or south—east, they are slightly drier, that drier air, affecting parts of east england. not so many showers and thunderstorms there. another hot day for the vast majority. heading into monday again, the storms are tending to be towards the storms are tending to be towards the western areas of the uk, and the drier air working the western areas of the uk, and the drierairworking in the western areas of the uk, and the drier air working in across the eastern areas of england, meaning there will be fewer showers, even

though we will have some of the highest temperatures in eastern areas. beyond that, humidity will tend to drop and that high pressure starts to move back in. from tuesday onwards, we are looking at an extended spell of dry and sunny weather.
