ofthe night of riots, the family of the boy who was killed appeals for calm. and the other main stories... rishi sunak sets out a 15 year plan to increase the numbers of doctors and nurses in the nhs in england with more places at medical school. the hollywood actor kevin spacey on trial in london over sexual assault allegations — a court is told he's a sexual bully. since the pandemic — a significant rise in children with type 1 diabetes — it's baffling researchers. and jeremy clarkson is rebuked for being sexist by the press watchdog over an article about the duchess of sussex in the sun. on newsnight at 1030 as riots spread and escalate, cross french cities, which calls this corruption of civil unrest and what is this mean for the future president macron. ——

corruption. —— eruption. including declaring a state of emergency after a third night of escalating violence and rioting in cities and towns across france. hundreds of police were injured last night and more than 900 people arrested. across france tonight, public transport has been suspended and some major events cancelled as the government tries to stop scenes like this taking place for the fourth night running. the protests began in a paris suburb on tuesday when a police officer shot dead a 17—year—old boy of north african descent during a traffic stop in the nanterre. footage of the shooting was posted online. the unrest quickly spread across france, fuelled by accusations of police racism and wider discrimination against minority communities. around 115,000 police officers have

now been deployed on the streets. from paris here's our europe editor katya adler. paris, supposed to be the city of love, is exploding again into hateful confrontation. riot police versus angry youths, many under the age of 18. there is talk the french government may be forced to call a state of emergency. in the meantime, france's president today urged parents to keep youngsters at home, while he sent more police on the streets. but those youngsters aren't listening. last night, the violence spread to flashpoints across the country. town halls, schools, public buildings seen to represent the state of france have all been targeted. there was looting, too, in central paris. in the mediterranean city of marseille, the state library was attacked. the uk and us have now issued travel advice

for their citizens visiting france. "they are right to be cautious", this independentjournalist told me. he grew up in the paris suburbs, documenting what he says is daily police aggression. he predicts the riots will only grow this weekend. anger is at boiling point, he insists. with the country on a knife edge, french politics is at its most poisonous, with opposition leaders, here on the far right, but also on the far left, trying to score points. but in the suburb where nahel, a 17—year—old french boy of algerian—moroccan descent was shot this week by a french policeman, we found people sympathetic with the rioters. translation: no one | listens to people like us, like them, otherwise. i am against violence. but these youngsters want their voices heard. as dusk approaches, the feeling in this neighbourhood

is getting increasingly tense. we were threatened just now on the streets, and we tried to get into this company that was targeted by rioters last night, and they begged us to go outside the gates. they said they don't want to attract any more trouble with our presence. and as the streets of paris continue to burn, it is also the reputation of france's president emanuel macron that is being scorched, both here at home and abroad. earlier today, because of the violence, president macron was forced to leave a summit of eu leaders discussing europe's huge emergency — russia's invasion of ukraine. and france's ability to safely host international events like next year's summer olympics is being questioned. this olympic swimming complex was targeted by rioters last night. even the united nations had a go today, calling on france to address what it called the racism and discrimination in the security forces.

there are 115,000 of those security forces being deployed across france tonight. the fear here is that the violence will only escalate, especially as tomorrow there will be the funeral held for that 17—year—old boy who was killed earlier this week by a police man here in his suburb of nanterre, which tonight really is extremely tense. we have been told here by people, there have been messages on social media, asking people to come from the suburbs and gather in the capital paris tomorrow. the french government says a top priority is getting the situation under control but both politically and on the streets, it really feels very much on the back foot. thank you very much. plans to train and retain more staff for the nhs in england have been set out by the government, in an attempt to address the chronic workforce shortages in the health service. rishi sunak called it was

the "largest single expansion" of education and training in the history of the nhs. the government says it will invest £2.11 billion over the next five years. with tens of thousands more training places being created. here's our health editor hugh pym with more. are you feeling all right? yes. two health workers, both part of the nhs�*s long—term solution to fix the shortage of staff. scan your response, sweetheart. gemma joined the nhs after several short—term jobs, including working in a chip shop. she is a nursing associate at derby hospital and got there learning on the job while earning a wage. i've got children at home and a house to run so i needed the security that there was a job there at the end of it and also not having to worry about finances while studying. hello, mrs cooper. chris worked for 18 years as a paramedic but the hectic hours took their toll and he thought about quitting. but he was encouraged to stay in a different role as part of a gp

practice in taunton. the nhs says it recognises the need to offer more flexibility to hold onto experienced staff. it's difficult as a paramedic to find work outside the ambulance service but as these opportunities develop so does the opportunity for me to remain in the nhs providing care to patients, which is what i've wanted to do since my teens and what i signed up to do. stories like those will be encouraged under the new plan unveiled by the prime minister. training, retention and reform. that's our plan to build the health care workforce of the future and secure the nhs for the long term. work on this plan was at least under way early last year. why has it taken so long to get it launched and have you lost valuable time? it was important we got it right because this is a very important day and it sets the nhs up for decades.

it's not an overnight magic wand solution but a set of things that will make a difference, now, in the medium term and the long term, to us to that position. there are currently 7,500 medical school places a year for new students and the aim is to get to 15,000 by 2031 with more than a tenth of them apprentices. for nurses, there are nearly 30,000 new places a year now with a target of nearly 54,000, nearly a third apprentices by then. after 13 years of catastrophic mismanagement of the nhs, which has bred the worst crisis in its history, i'm not surprised the conservatives are looking to labour and taking our workforce plan and running with it. no ifs, no buts, no junior doctor cuts! but doctors are still protesting over pay, with more strikes to come. health analysts welcome the workforce plan but point out that remuneration isn't in there.

pay for nhs staff is outside the control of nhs england. that's for the government. at the moment, we have ongoing industrial action and no long—term strategy to ensure that pay is competitive. scotland's workforce plan was launched last year and in wales they've announced a new recruitment drive. the northern irish plan drawn up pre—pandemic is being reviewed. the chair is just behind you, morris, if you want a sit down. the uk's nations, like others, are facing a global shortage of health staff and trying to come up with solutions. and hugh's here now... how soon will patients notice the difference? people waiting for a gp appointment are struggling to get one or waiting on a waiting list will not notice any difference. it takes years to train doctors, nurses

and other health care staff. nhs leaders today were making clear that in this plan they will be policies to retain staff and they can kick in quickly, offering more flexible working, better childcare and doing everything possible to makejob satisfaction at a higher level, persuading people who might otherwise left to stay. and the policy to allow retired consultants to come back and do outpatient clinics. but as we have heard, the payissue clinics. but as we have heard, the pay issue has not been resolved. one of the big questions tonight is how many people can be persuaded to stay who might otherwise have left, in time for all these new stuff that we've heard about the day coming on stream? but that won't be for at least five years into the future. many thanks. a court has been told that the hollywood star kevin spacey is a sexual bully who likes making other people feel powerless. the allegation was made at the start of the actor's trial in london. he's accused of sex offences against four men —

charges he denies. our special correspondent lucy manning reports. this is a far cry from the theatres and cinemas where the oscar winner normally appears. southwark crown court heard kevin spacey fowler, as he is charged, is of course an extremely famous actor but, the prosecution claim, a sexual bully, a man who sexually assaults other men, who delights in making others feel powerless and uncomfortable. the star of american beauty has been accused by four men of 12 offences. the court heard one incident was in 2008, when it is alleged he carried out an unwanted sex act on a young actor, who claimed he was asleep and woke to find it happening. the man, in his 20s, had written to kevin spacey asking for help after graduating from drama school. kevin spacey is also accused by a driver, a theatre worker and a barman, who all claim he had, without asking, forcibly grabbed their genitalia, sometimes making sexual remarks,

and laughing when challenged. the prosecution asked the jury to consider if the four accusers, who don't know each other, where lying or trying to benefit financially, or, as the prosecution believe, kevin spacey abused his power and influence, taking what and who he wanted, when he wanted. the actor, sitting in the dock of courtroom 1, listened as the prosecutor christine agnew kc told the jury not to be starstruck. she described him as predatory. he has pleaded not guilty. mr spacey�*s barrister, in his defence, told thejury, "you will soon hear, i suggest, some truths. you will soon hear some half truths. you will also hear, i suggest, some deliberate exaggerations, and you will hear many damned lies."

at stake, kevin spacey�*s reputation, his legacy, his freedom. the actor's only role now, to persuade the jury he is telling the truth rather than his four accusers. none of the men wanted to be touched in a sexual way, claim the prosecution, but he didn't seem to care. lucy manning, bbc news. a 15—year—old boy and a 23—year—old man have been stabbed to death in north london. scotland yard says officers were called to an address in islington last night just before midnight. a third person is being treated in hospital. no arrests have been made. there's been a significant rise in the number of children and teenagers diagnosed with type 1 diabetes since the pandemic. ? but researchers who carried out the study around the world are unsure why it's happening.? here's our medical editor fergus walsh. theo, who's nine, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes last year, just a few months after he caught covid.

he's part of a huge spike in cases of type 1, an autoimmune disease where the body can no longer produce enough insulin diabetes in children and teenagers in many parts of the world, including europe and north america. before the pandemic, the incidence of type 1

the article was soon deleted, with jeremy clarkson saying he was horrified to have caused so much hurt. the sun also said they regretted

publishing the article, and six months on, the paper is now publishing a ruling from its regulator ipso that it breached the editorial code. will there be a fine for the sun? the remedy the committee required is the publication of its upheld decision to let, not only the readers of the sun, but also the wider public know about the reasons for the finding and the sun will be required to flag that on its front page. the complaint was not made by the duchess of sussex, but by the women's rights organisations the wilde foundation and the fawcett society, who have welcomed the ruling. we're absolutely delighted about this victory for fawcett, for our members and supporters and for wilde foundation, who also brought the complaint with us. this was a really egregious example. women have had to put up with this kind of hate for generation after generation, but what today's decision shows is time is up. we are going to stand together and we are going to hold our press to account and say that it isn't

acceptable to perpetuate these kind of hateful ideas any more. and while there's no comment from meghan and harry, it's understood they were happy for the complaint to go forward about an article that prince harry described as horrific, hurtful and cruel. david sillito, bbc news. the wagner group of mercenaries, who took part in a failed mutiny in russia last weekend, has just a few hours left to comply with an ultimatum from russia to surrender their weapons, move to belarus, join the russian army, or go home. bbc verify has obtained new images which give clues as to what the group's plans are next. here's our security correspondent frank gardner. we've been looking into some of the unanswered questions from last weekend's failed russian mutiny. where, for example, is this man — yevgeny prigozhin, the wagner leader? this is the last verified image we have of him, leaving rostov—on—don after calling off the mutiny. just hours earlier, he and his wagner mercenaries

had seized control of a city of a million people, including russia's southern military headquarters, all without a shot being fired. they must have been feeling quite invincible after storming their way into the ukrainian city of bakhmut. prigozhin himself popped up a lot from the front lines, appearing on wagner's telegram channel to complain of being let down by russia's ministry of defence. well, since then, we've tracked a plane linked to him using flight data. it flew from rostov—on—don to an airfield in belarus and then on to moscow, st petersburg and back to moscow. it's all part of a last—minute deal brokered by this man, aleksandr lukashenko, the president of belarus. that deal allows prigozhin, the wagner leader, to escape prosecution in russia by moving to belarus in exile. but to do what there? well, bbc verify has obtained satellite images of a base southeast of minsk that give us some clues.

here's that base weeks ago. an old, disused soviet army base. nothing to see. and here it is now — with more than 300 tent—like structures newly built. that's enough to house more than 2,000 wagner fighters, if they decide to relocate there. you can imagine how popular that is with belarus's nato neighbours like poland. they do not want thousands of battle—hardened mercenaries, including convicted murderers and rapists, close to their borders. but wagner has interests well beyond europe. it may be finished as a force in ukraine but in africa it's still has huge commercial and military interests that russia won't want to lose. ultimately, what happens to wagner and its leader prigozhin, depends on vladimir putin. here he is this week

congratulating the russian army on helping to foil the mutiny. he's brought wagner down to size, taken away its independence, but will this be the last attempt in russia to challenge his rule? president biden has condemned two rulings by the conservative—dominated us supreme court, as the justices struck down one of his key plans — to wipe out billions of dollars of student debt — and in a separate case, ruled in favour of a graphic designer who refused to serve same—sex couples. our north america editor sarah smith joins me from the white house. tell us more. the supreme court decided president biden does not have the authority or power to forgive over $400 billion worth of student debt. inside the white house, they are trying to come up white house, they are trying to come up with a different way, a different lord hughes to achieve a key campaign promise from mr biden that could also be critical to attracting younger voters in the next presidential election. in the last few minutes, president biden said he

was angry about the decision and has also said he is disappointed with the ruling that means businesses now have a constitutional right to refuse service to same—sex couples. and we know president biden is also totally opposed to a major decision from the supreme court yesterday which bans universities and colleges from using affirmative action to give preference to blacks and latinos applicants. but the president like everyone else has to abide by the authority of the supreme court, whether they like it or not. i would say, though, that this is quite unusual, for the court to have such a strong, 6—3 majority of highly conservative justices sitting on the bench. right—wing groups are deliberately bringing forward cases because of that in the knowledge they are very likely to get a conservative ruling. as president biden says, this is not a normal court. sarah smith reporting, many thanks. the former senior civil servant sue gray, who led the inquiry into lockdown parties in downing street, has been cleared

to work for the labour party. parliament's appointments advisory body said she could start work for sir keir starmer in september, six months after quitting as a civil servant. but the government will publish a written statement next week accusing her of breaking the civil service code by failing to declare her contact with labour — who say no rules were broken. a new energy price cap comes into effect this weekend which will see a small drop in household bills. the price cap sets a limit to how much customers can be charged for units of energy. trom tomorrow, that will work out at £2,000 for an average household over a year — still almost double what prices were three years ago. the boss of centrica, which owns british gas, has warned that bills are likely to stay around this level for the foreseeable future. here's our business editor simonjack. under this ageing platform is a gas tank the size of central london. the rough storage facility was mothballed in 2016 as pipelines from europe meant it was considered redundant.

not any more. it was brought back into partial service last october and today, it will be filled further, ahead of a winter that rough�*s owners say we need to be well prepared for. i think that there's a danger that we get complacent because last winter was ok and because prices are quite stable now. in my view, it's not resilient enough at the moment. it could be more resilient, but it's far better than it was. so we've doubled the capacity and we should really not lose sight of that. this makes a huge difference. typical annual household bills will fall from £2,500 to £2,074 from this saturday, but that's still £800 more than it was two years ago. so when will bills return to normal? there's no indication it's going to come below £2,000. over the next nine months or so, we would expect it to stay at that level. when we had the issue in russia last week, prices rose by 20%. some of that will feed into energy bills going forward. so we don't know where prices will go. there are six days' worth of uk supply of gas beneath my feet. the uk has 12 days in total, but germany has over 100. we are very reliant on gas still,

over half of which is imported. as long as that remains true, prices are likely to remain high and volatile. not far away onshore in doncaster, british gas customer tara is glad her bill will be £20 a month lower from july, but it's still more than double what it used to be, meaning there's no slack in the household budget. like everyone else, i'm just really struggling and then you've got to really cut back on all the luxuries that you did have. so it got to the point where you get depressed because you just basically go into work reallyjust to pay your bills. and with housing and food bills still rising fast, many people will need ongoing support from government and the energy industry, according to charity groups. if we're going to have a situation where energy prices are this stubbornly high for the foreseeable future, then we have to expect government to intervene with financial assistance to those on the lowest incomes, but also for the energy sector to sort out social tariffs, debt provisions, ways of helping people who are struggling. a cost of living crisis that started with energy will be with us

this winter and beyond. simon jack, bbc news. cricket, and england had a disappointing third day in the ashes at lords. they suffered a batting collapse, losing six wickets in the morning session to be all out for 325. australia took control in the afternoon, closing on 130—2 — that's a lead of 221 runs. wimbledon starts next week, and the draw has thrown up interesting first—round matches for former champions sir andy murray and venus williams. the defending men's champion novak djokovic is also looking to build on his all—time record for the men's singles of 23 grand slam titles. andy swiss reports. at wimbledon, preparation is everything, whether you're pruning or playing. now 36, andy murray is ready as always on what is the tenth

anniversary of this. the waiting is over! after that famous triumph, one decade and one metal hip later, he's not quite the same but he has won two titles this month. never say never. granted, it's obviously going to be extremely difficult to get to the latter stages again, but i do believe i can do it if i'm in the right place physically and mentally, which right now i feel like i am. novak djokovic, though, is still the man to beat. an eighth win here would equal roger federer�*s record. the women's singles meanwhile has seen six different champions in a row, so can last year's winner, elena rybakina, hang on to her title? of course, wimbledon is one of british sport's showpiece events. last year, more than half a million people came here to watch, but this year, while there is the usual excitement,

there's also concern. after the campaign group just stop oil disrupted the cricket on wednesday, prompting some players to take action, wimbledon know that they could be next. we will be enhancing our security in certain locations, areas such as the gates and around the courts, as you would expect. what will your message be to the players about how they should react if there is disruption? i can't speak for how the players will behave but there is no expectation or desire for the players to get engaged. we have the right trained individuals courtside to deal with any issues. this year also sees the return of russian and belarusian players such as daniil medvedev and aryna sabalenka, who had been previously banned following the invasion of ukraine. after an eventful build—up, organisers will be hoping it is the tennis that is the only drama. andy swiss, bbc news, wimbledon. time for a look at the weather. here's darren bett. here's darren bett. thanks, after what we have had thanks, after what we have had
