streets under siege, a dramatic outpouring of anger, after a 17—year—old, nahel, was killed by police during a traffic stop. many of the rioters are teenagers, out despite a plea from france's president to parents to keep their children at home. as the protests have intensified, so too has the police presence. across the country from friday into saturday morning, more than 115,000 officers were deployed stop and it is the police thatis deployed stop and it is the police that is driving people onto the streets in the first place. many here accuse officers of discrimination, and even the united nations says france needs to address its deep—rooted issues of racism in the police force. it is a concern crowd that this protest share. the

country's foreign ministry says the un's claims are unfounded, but the french police have long been plagued by accusations of racism. many see this violence as a wake—up call, but the government, containing it is a challenge. what began with the death of nahel has now come to represent something bigger. chris bockman is in toulouse for us this morning. chris, what's the situation on the ground? this is something we have been following for several days. fortunately, overnight it was a lot quieter here in toulouse. there have been skirmishes, there were some flames on buildings, but nothing like what we saw in the first two nights. the trouble really seems to have been located more on the other big city in the south, marseille, and in another place called two, but here it seems the police put up a lot more of their forces out on the

streets. drones were used to monitor crowd control and see whether there was movement in this neighbourhood, and also transit links were cut throughout the city, from nine o'clock in the evening, which meant people couldn't go across the city very easily, so that has all had a big impact. of course, school break started last night. many of the people arrested across france are between the ages of 1a and 19, so those kids who may have been involved in the disturbances do not have to go to school if they were going, that is the big question, will they then say, we've got a lot of free time, we can do what we want? at the moment it was time here last night, not everywhere, it remains to be seen if that will be the case tonight as well. something we have been looking closely out on this programme is the rising gas and electricity. that is affecting our bills. charlie? household energy bills in england, wales and scotland will be cheaper from today as the regulator, ofgem, brings in its new price cap. typical annual costs will be reduced to £2,074, a drop of £426 a year.

suppliers can charge consumers per unit of gas and electricity, and protects us all from paying over the odds. icap is reviewed every three months reflect wholesale prices. in april it was set at £3280, so a typical household will pay no more than that of our energy. but due to the government's energy price guarantee, those bills were actually capped at £2500. now, from july, 0fgem's has fallen to £2074, so it means the average consumer will see their bills fall by around £426 per year. of course, if you use more energy, you will end up paying more. and those who pay by cash, check and bank transfer do end up paying slightly more. analysts predict that energy bills will stay around this level for some years to come. we think that level for some years to come. - think that unfortunately, prices are likely to stay high until the end of this decade. that is because the competition for energy on the global stage is going to continue, and the challenges during the energy transition, as we use more local

the showers will be across northern parts of the uk through the weekend, sunny conditions generally developing towards the south, so bear with the weather. 0n the satellite image you can see this area of cloud that brought us the rain yesterday, the drizzle overnight, it clears away and we have a clearer slot here on the satellite. so brightest guys will start to move in. this is how it has been over the past few hours. speckled blue across the map. we start off with some patchy light rain and drizzle, more persistent rain and drizzle, more persistent rain with the western isles and the northern isles as well, i think wherever you are you will notice the strength of the breeze coming in a north direction. sunny spells and showers, most of them to scotland and northern ireland, england and wales will see the show is tending to ease through the day, so a fair bit of dry weather. the warmest conditions in the south, up to 22 or 23 degrees, further north we are typically looking at the mid to high teens. through the afternoon, things will brighten up at lords, with the ashes, so this morning there is a lot of cloud out there, make it a

bit of drizzle, temperatures up to about 22, but again, that breeze a real feature of the weather. this evening and overnight, most of those showers tending to fade away. still persistent rain across the north of scotland. just about 50 mph. a touch cooler than the night we have just seen. temperatures getting down to single figures for some of us as we head into tomorrow morning. through the day tomorrow, we've got low pressure sitting just to the north of the uk, the wind rotating that area of low pressure. so they are driving and more showers, again, most frequent across parts of scotland, northern ireland, is north of scotland pretty wet and windy, further south you are likely to see a good deal of dry weather, noticeable westerly breeze but perhaps not as strong as it is today. temperatures tomorrow probably just down today. temperatures tomorrow probablyjust down a notch, looking up probablyjust down a notch, looking up 14—17 in the north, 18—22 further south. furtherahead, up 14—17 in the north, 18—22 further south. further ahead, things remaining reasonably unsettled into

0ur science editor rebecca morelle reports. stunning images of our cosmos but what we can see makes up a tiny fraction of what is really out there. the rest is known as the dark universe. we can't see it and scientists don't really know what it is. now a new mission is about to try and shed light on this mystery. it is just like trying to set off on a ship before people knew where land was in different directions, now we're just trying to map out the universe and try and understand where we fit into it and how we've got here and how the whole universe has got from the point of the big bang to what we have now. european auen bang to what we have now. european agency spacecraft — bang to what we have now. european agency spacecraft is _ bang to what we have now. european agency spacecraft is called _ bang to what we have now. european agency spacecraft is called euclid - agency spacecraft is called euclid and it will be making a vast 3d map of the cosmos. it is trying to understand phenomena of dark energy and dark matter. so what is dark matter? galaxies like our own milky way held together by gravity. force

comes from everything that is in them, the stars, the dust. the thing is, all of this material doesn't provide enough energy to stop these great spirals from flying apart. there is something else there, a cosmic glue that we can't see that adds the extra gravity to bind them together, and that, dark matter. scientists think dark matter that makes up about 25% of the universe. the material we can see, regular matter, accounts for only 5%. they believe the other 70% is dark energy. what is dark energy? since the big bang universe has been expanding with galaxies moving ever further apart. scientists have thought over this would slow down but actually this expansion is speeding up and it is thought that a mysterious force, dark energy, is driving this.

mysterious force, dark energy, is driving this-— driving this. could enormously influence the _ driving this. could enormously influence the fate _ driving this. could enormously influence the fate of _ driving this. could enormously influence the fate of our - driving this. could enormously - influence the fate of our universe. how far is going to expand? is it going to go forever and accelerate and get bigger and more rapidly? is it going tojust and get bigger and more rapidly? is it going to just rip apart? and get bigger and more rapidly? is it going tojust rip apart? 0r and get bigger and more rapidly? is it going to just rip apart? or will it going to just rip apart? or will it perhaps a collapse back down again and understanding that fifth force, if that is what dark energy is, will help us understand not only where we came from but where we're going in this universe. liik going in this universe. uk scientists _ going in this universe. uk scientists have played a key role in this mission. the visible light camera. the components were built at the science space laboratory. it will take incredibly detailed images of billions of galaxies to study the dark universe it will have to spot the tiniest distortions. taste dark universe it will have to spot the tiniest distortions.- dark universe it will have to spot the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see — the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see dark— the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see dark matter _ the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see dark matter and - the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see dark matter and energyj able to see dark matter and energy stock we bury it from the movement of the visible objects we can see and that is why it has to be high resolution, high precision —— we vary it. it might be the faintest of wobbles we have in the staff that

australia began their second innings with a sizeable lead but when it is gloomy up above it is a good time to bowl. england urgently had to create chances and take them. an early opportunity to dismiss 0sman kavala, no. england did get rid of david warner lbw and who is the bowler who is impressed on his ashes debut? josh tongue, it is you. khawaja watches and waits a ball to hit. yeah, and he hits it. classic test cricket. it is the way he got to another 50. cricket. it is the way he got to another50. labuschagne cricket. it is the way he got to another 50. labuschagne is out but steve smith remains, scoring that way, scoring his way. australia 130 42. 221 ahead stop before long they might seem out of sight. joe wilson, bbc news, lords. england's women, will be hoping for a change in theirfortunes when they play australia, in the first t20, match

the right schedule and this means we can only have two games in this schedule before we go into the world cup also with the travelling to the other side of the world which takes time, two days, and also it takes some adaptation to beat the jetlag. the centre—back has rejoined the club in 29 after having cancer. she is 110w cancer now cancer free. coming through the youth ranks, he won the free leg and europa league with the blues and says it is hard to say goodbye. a number of players who are departing the club as he looks to balance the books after a huge outlay last season. and what about the manchester united goalkeeper david 0'hare? after his contract came to an end with no decision yet whether he will remain

elsewhere there were also wins for wigan, st helens and bottom side wakefield. 0nto athletics, and keely hodgkinson had to settle for silver in the diamond league 800 metres. hodgkinson broke her own british record in herfirst race of the summer in paris earlier this month, but was beaten in lausanne by commonwealth champion mary moraa. the kenyan ran a strong home straight to beat hodgkinson byjust under a second. the cold conditions weren't ideal for the sprinters but britain's darryll neita also managed second in the 100 metres. first place went to africa's fastest woman, mariejosee ta lou. and finally, 7,000 tonnes of dirt has been dumped onto the pitch at villa park, home of aston villa, because the action is going to get a bit dirty tonight. this week the stadium has been transformed so it can host the british leg of the world super cross championship this evening. the 40 best riders from across the world will be racing wheel to wheel around the track, taking to the air, in this opening round of the global competition. a year ago it attracted sell—out crowds in cardiff which means the british round is here to stay.

democracy? it has been one of the most confusing _ democracy? it has been one of the most confusing episodes _ democracy? it has been one of the most confusing episodes of - democracy? it has been one of the most confusing episodes of recent| most confusing episodes of recent times, and we still don't know exactly what happened or what the outcome might be. yevgeny prigozhin, head of the wagner group of mercenaries ordered a detachment of his men, first to take over the city of rostov on don, whether russian troops and the inhabitants welcomed them, and then secondly to head—on for moscow. then resident lukashenko of belarus rang prigozhin and offered him a deal, and that was it. prigozhin ordered his men to turn back and he and they have gone to quarters in belarus not farfrom back and he and they have gone to quarters in belarus not far from the ukrainian border. so what on earth does it all mean for the man who captured rostov? i asked the news editor of bbc russian.— editor of bbc russian. nobody exected editor of bbc russian. nobody expected that _ editor of bbc russian. nobody expected that it _ editor of bbc russian. nobody expected that it is _ editor of bbc russian. nobody expected that it is going i editor of bbc russian. nobody expected that it is going to i editor of bbc russian. nobody i expected that it is going to come to the point when he is going to take over one of the biggest cities in

the south of russia with more than 1 million population, and sees the headquarters of the southern army command which is in charge of operations in ukraine. so to that point, yes, unexpected. but other than that, prigozhin is such shady character, and his private army has come to such a level of influence on the frontline, and also in public opinion, because he is able to deliver his views on the war, on the generals and how the war is conducted, his disagreements, his feelings and his views, to millions and millions of russians via social media. we knew that something was going to come up, but in such a scale in such a huge way that it could affect the power balance in the kremlin, in moscow, that was

particular things, we don't know. a of are saying that putin has been badly weakened by this. but he has come out the victor, hasn't he? nominally, he is not threatened anymore. 5000 armed people are not marching to moscow anymore, and that is something he can claim as a victory. but his standing as the head of the russian state has been weakened immensely, the fact that for almost 12 hours or more there was no word from the kremlin while, as i said, the biggest, one of the biggest southern russian cities was taken over by armed mercenaries, and were huge, by armed mercenaries, private army was marching towards moscow, for up to about 200 kilometres from moscow, they stopped of their own volition. nobody stopped them, nobody resisted them. they went unimpeded. where was the

law enforcement? where was the army, where was the minister of defence? these are the questions that mr burton is probably asking himself. but the image of a strong tsar, the image of an unassailable politician who sorts out anything and everything, is now ruined. so people know that in a way, picking is naked. he know that in a way, picking is naked. , ., ., ~ naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? — naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? indeed. _ naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? indeed. that _ naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? indeed. that is - naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? indeed. that is one i naked. he is therefore the taking, can do it? indeed. that is one of l can do it? indeed. that is one of the conclusions _ can do it? indeed. that is one of the conclusions that _ can do it? indeed. that is one of the conclusions that many i can do it? indeed. that is one of| the conclusions that many people will probably make, especially those who are fighting for power now. technically, strictly speaking, there should be a presidential election in russia next year. does all this mean that people will be inclined to vote against putin, or will the whole thing be so ring — rigged anyway does not matter what individual voters say?— individual voters say? there is a bi chunk individual voters say? there is a big chunk of _ individual voters say? there is a big chunk of people _ individual voters say? there is a big chunk of people who - individual voters say? there is a big chunk of people who are i

thinking that whatever the outcome is, that moment could create momentum for the ukrainian army to gain some territories. and that is what we saw as well.— what we saw as well. people in ukraine must _ what we saw as well. people in ukraine must be _ what we saw as well. people in ukraine must be pretty - what we saw as well. people in j ukraine must be pretty hopeful what we saw as well. people in - ukraine must be pretty hopeful that the big counteroffensive which is building up still has not reached its full potential, but that will be successful?— successful? within the western media, successful? within the western media. the _ successful? within the western media, the discourse _ successful? within the western media, the discourse lies - successful? within the western media, the discourse lies in - media, the discourse lies in discussing whether the ukrainian counteroffensive is strong enough, did they manage to take another territory, is it too slow? if you are ukrainian media it would be a different take on that. people would be mostly hopeful and grateful. the counteroffensive is moving,. . they know it cannot be an easy task, because for ukrainian people it is notjust because for ukrainian people it is not just the because for ukrainian people it is notjust the number of because for ukrainian people it is not just the number of trips because for ukrainian people it is notjust the number of trips on the number of soldiers. it is somebody�*s

difficult to reach that kind of liberation within the nearest future, which means that there could be ongoing warfor many future, which means that there could be ongoing war for many years. future, which means that there could be ongoing warfor many years. or there could be some kind of agreement which would not really be in favour of agreement which would not really be infavour of ukraine, agreement which would not really be in favour of ukraine, which nobody wants in ukraine, of course. um? wants in ukraine, of course. why would ukraine _ wants in ukraine, of course. why would ukraine be _ wants in ukraine, of course. why would ukraine be forced to accept an agreement like that? i mean, it would not be imposed on it by the western allies, for instance, would it? it western allies, for instance, would it? , ., , ., ., western allies, for instance, would it? ., ~ , it? it is a question to the western allies, if they _ it? it is a question to the western allies, if they try _ it? it is a question to the western allies, if they try to _ it? it is a question to the western allies, if they try to impose - it? it is a question to the western allies, if they try to impose some | allies, if they try to impose some sort of peace agreement in ukraine. but the mood in ukraine is that if ukrainian officials agree to something less then the borders of 1991, the question would be, why did all those people by? what 1991, the question would be, why did all those people by?— all those people by? what about the eastern part — all those people by? what about the eastern part of _ all those people by? what about the eastern part of the _ all those people by? what about the eastern part of the country, - all those people by? what about the eastern part of the country, there i eastern part of the country, there are still large numbers of russian speaking people there, aren't they?

many ukrainians to speak russian, may be less now, but when i was born my first language was russian as well, because i was born in the soviet union. many territories in the eastern parts of ukraine, and people from there, they do speak russian. they felt so much betrayed but they couldn't believe that those people who shared the same language with them came with water to them. this war was very much vladimir putin's war. if for one reason or another he does not survive in power, do you think the hatred that ukrainians must feel, do feel, towards russia, would be less? if somebody from the russian government dares to say, look, it was a horrible mistake, we genuinely apologise and if they even pay reparations, as germany did, you know, it could be a point of talks, as far as i see it now. but there were no such movements yet, if they

withdraw their troops and if they initiated talk about an apology, i can't imagine any ukrainians having any hatreds just to russian people just because they are russian after that stop. president biden, faced with a block that includes russia, china, iran and increasingly possibly saudi arabia, wants to reinforce his own grouping of democratic countries. europe, japan, south korea and so on. what better country to attract to this than india. the world's largest democracy. fine, except that india's democratic record is pretty questionable nowadays with ethnic and religious groups feeling discriminated against by the government and the media and increasingly the judiciary under the control of narendra modi. india's

prime minister. so what did president biden who once said that human rights were at the heart of his government do? well, he rolled out the red carpet for mr modi. our bbc hindi correspondence.- out the red carpet for mr modi. our bbc hindi correspondence. missed the renderer modi's _ bbc hindi correspondence. missed the renderer modi's supporters _ bbc hindi correspondence. missed the renderer modi's supporters in - bbc hindi correspondence. missed the renderer modi's supporters in india - renderer modi's supporters in india are very happy to attend you —— tell you that the boss was denied a these are on 2005 when he was the chief minister of the state. the same man gets a red carpet welcome, heroes welcome in the united states so it is a kind of personal triumph for mr modi, that is in a nutshell what his supporters are saying in india. but of course it _ supporters are saying in india. but of course it is really about china, it is about the united states trying to win over india to a coalition

west. since the russian invasion of ukraine last year in february, biden administration has been trying really, really hard to convince india to contain the russian aggression but without much luck. in the long run, over the maybe past 20 or —— 20 odd years, the american endeavours appeared to be hearing endeavours appeared to be bearing fruit. india is closer to the us today than it ever was and over the last 20 years, india's dependence on russia, russia's imports have been reduced from 68% to a5, a0 6% today. and the us has been the main beneficiary because it has weapons imports from the us which have been steadily on the rise.— steadily on the rise. nevertheless, india comes _ steadily on the rise. nevertheless, india comes out _ steadily on the rise. nevertheless, india comes out of _ steadily on the rise. nevertheless, india comes out of this _ steadily on the rise. nevertheless, india comes out of this much - india comes out of this much stronger, doesn't it, then even when it went into the visit? i stronger, doesn't it, then even when it went into the visit?— it went into the visit? i think india's primary _ it went into the visit? i think india's primary interests - it went into the visit? i think india's primary interests lie l it went into the visit? i think. india's primary interests lie in it went into the visit? i think -

india's primary interests lie in the rising as a great power, a voice of the global south, as mr modi has said several times. it sees the united states as a very important partner in the quest. india was america's cutting—edge technology, the state—of—the—art weapons. china is as much of a threat to india as people here in india no it is a concern for the us. so india would like the us to be on its side as an old when a friend without really giving too much to the us. haifa old when a friend without really giving too much to the us. now mr modi can say _ giving too much to the us. now mr modi can say to — giving too much to the us. now mr modi can say to india, _ giving too much to the us. now mr modi can say to india, look, - giving too much to the us. now mr modi can say to india, look, the . modi can say to india, look, the biggest democracy on earth is giving us and our policies the thumbs up. he has harped on one thing, that india is the biggest democracy in the world. even though even when he was talking about india's democracy, they were protesters outside the white house protesting against human

rights, alleged human rights violations, and the treatment of the muslims and the christians in india. he kept emphasising the fact that india is the biggest democracy in the world and america is the strongest democracy. he is using democracy to get plaudits. india is in a position where foreign investors, the american investors, they once indian, access to the indian markets because there is a decoupling and de— risking of the american companies vis—a—vis china and they are seeing india as an alternative to china, the global production hub. they all want to come to india to invest. some of them are already there. so india is today in a position it feels like it cannot be dictated to.

surface. the really interesting question these days is that does populism work? because in the past the general thing was populism would come to power and the system would be too rigid and they would make outlandish promises and they would fail to deliver. i think that is a hard argument to make it the moment because you've modi in power, you have modi in power and erdogan in power. they are showing that they can govern with substance. it fills can govern with substance. it fills with britain _ can govern with substance. it fills with britain that _ can govern with substance. it fills with britain that the _ can govern with substance. it fills with britain that the system - can govern with substance. it fills with britain that the system has l with britain that the system has gone back to, reverted to its natural position.— gone back to, reverted to its natural osition. , ., natural position. every government i have covered — natural position. every government i have covered have _ natural position. every government i have covered have railed _ natural position. every government i have covered have railed against - natural position. every government i have covered have railed against the civil service. they want to deliver this but the civil service is blocking them. i think between brexit and the governments of michael gove and borisjohnson, you know, the experts, we no longer trust the experts. that was a high water mark and i think we have come back a bit from that. the largest two parties in the uk are now led by

more technocratic leaders. i think i detect a lack of confidence in some systems. some of the institutions within the uk. i think we sit in our own institution. the bbc has been browbeaten by so many governments in different colours of recent years that you sometimes wonder as an institution is it as confident as it could be? i cover now as a diplomatic and —— correspondence,, as an institution it is not as confident as it could be. the uk hasn't really had that big debate about what it is, what does the into the world and what does it foreign policy mean? but remember of the uk is quite resistant to populism because of the nature of its democratic institutions.

divided at the moment that it is very, very hard to start drawing too many parallels from what was going on there at the moment. the way i like to look at this issue is not are we going to see a resurgence of populism but are we going to see a resurgence of democracy? have we reached a stage where there has been enough of a fright that democrats think actually, we can'tjust take democracy for granted. we have to now go out onto the barricades and fight for it and frankly we need to govern better. but how does a british government of the future, whatever political colour, respond to that person that feels somehow the government isn't delivering for him or her? there is a massive cost of living crisis. i think how western governments and liberal democracies respond to that will be the really crucial test, whether they can take the fight to the populists. they can take the fight to the --oulists. they can take the fight to the penulists-_ they can take the fight to the --oulists. g. , ., ., populists. date -- james landale, dilomatic populists. date -- james landale, diplomatic correspondence. - populists. date -- james landale, diplomatic correspondence. if - diplomatic correspondence. if yevgeny prigozhin hadn't backed down

last saturday, wagner group might have reached moscow and, who knows? prigozhin's men might have even toppled vladimir putin's government. it is a pretty chilling thought. russia's problems today are the same as they were back in 1917 when czar nicholas�*s rule collapsed. scarcely anyone seems prepared to stand up voluntarily and defend the state. i was in moscow in august 1991 for the extraordinary, rather absurd kgb coup against mikhail gorbachev. when boris yeltsin famously jumped coup against mikhail gorbachev. when boris yeltsin famouslyjumped up on a tank and defied the kgb. i was amazed by how few people were prepared to turn out and support him stop sometimes outside yeltsin's headquarters, i could see they were just ten or 12 volunteers hanging around to defend him. a couple of

kgb men with guns could have captured yeltsin and ensured that the coup succeeded. well, it didn't happen. the coup collapsed on the third day and with it went to the entire 70—year structure of the soviet union. today, russia's governing system is every bit as brittle as it was in 1991 and back in 1917. vladimir putin can't really be certain that anyone much will help him stay in power. thank you forjoining us me for this addition of an spun world. from me and from the team, goodbye.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today: hundreds more are arrested on a fourth night of riots in france, with children as young as 13 detained. average household energy bills fall as a new price cap comes into effect. england's hopes hang by a thread, after an awful day for them in the second ashes test, with the match and the series slipping away from them going into day four at lords. # i want to thank you...

# i want to thank you... # thank you for being a friend! and after we revealed tony christie and sting have recorded thank you for being a friend to mark thank you day for carers. anneka rice lends a hand, helping care home residents sing along. good morning. we have a fairly blustery weekend ahead, a few bits of sunshine developing and scattered showers, most of those showers will be in the north, fewerfurther south. but i will have all the details for you here on bbc breakfast. it's saturday, the 1st ofjuly. almost 500 people — including children as young as 13 — have been arrested during a fourth night of violence and looting across france. the widespread unrest broke out after a 17—year—old boy was shot dead by police during a traffic stop on tuesday. his funeral will be held later today. our correspondent rajini vaidyanathan has the latest. jeremy clarkson's column from december of last year across france, yet more rage. streets under siege, a dramatic outpouring of anger,

after a 17—year—old, nahel, was killed by police during a traffic stop. many of the rioters are teenagers, out despite a plea from france's president to parents to keep their children at home. as the protests have intensified, so too has the police presence. across the country from friday into saturday morning, more than a5,000 officers were deployed — and it's the police that's driving people onto the streets in the first place. many here accuse officers of discrimination, and even the un says france needs to address its deep—rooted issues of racism in the police force. chanting: justice for nahel! it's a concern crowds at this protest share. the country's foreign ministry says the un's claims are unfounded, but the french police have long been plagued by accusations of racism.

many see this violence as a wake—up call, but for the government, containing it is a challenge. what began with the death of nahel has now come to represent something bigger. rajini vaidyanathan, bbc news. our correspondent chris bockman sent this report from toulouse. fortu nately fortunately overnight it was a lot quieter here in toulouse. there have been skirmishes, some flames on buildings, but nothing like we saw on the first two nights. the trouble seems to have really been located more in the other big city in the south, marseille, and in another place cold nims, but here it seems the police put out a lot more of their forces on the streets, drones were used to monitor cloud control, to see if there were movements in

this neighbourhood, for example, and also transport links were cut throughout the city, from nine o'clock in the evening, which meant people couldn't go across the city very easily. so that has had a big impact. of course, school break started last night, many people who were arrested across france were between the ages of 1a and 19. so now that those kids who may have been involved in the substance don't have to go to school, if they were going, that is the big question, will they now say, we've got a lot of free time and we can do what we want? at the moment it was come here last night, not everywhere, but it was calmer, we need to see whether that will be the case tonight as well. but was chris brockman reporting. charlie? a column byjeremy clarkson in the sun newspaper has been found to be sexist by the press watchdog. a record 25,000 people complained to the independent press standards organisation about the article. david sillito reports. jeremy clarkson's column from december of last year was all about how much he hated the duchess of sussex,

and that he dreamt of seeing her: 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 that 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 organisationsd 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 also 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. time is up, we are going to stand together and hold our press to account and say that it is not acceptable to perpetuate these kinds of hateful ideas anymore. while there was no comment from meghan and harry, it's understood they were happy for the complaint to go forward about an article prince harry described as "horrific, hurtful and cruel." david sillito, bbc news. a 15—year—old boy and a 23—year—old man have been stabbed to death in north london. police were called to an address in archway on thursday night. our correspondent louisa pilbeam is outside new scotland yard. good morning, louisa. just tell us what has been said by police? goad what has been said by police? good mornini , what has been said by police? good morning, charlie. _ what has been said by police? good morning, charlie. two _ what has been said by police?

the area, because police believe that a number of people, a large amount of people, actually witnessed this incident and they want to hear from them and they want to question those people. from them and they want to question those pennie— those people. louisa, for the moment. _ those people. louisa, for the moment, thank _ those people. louisa, for the moment, thank you - those people. louisa, for the moment, thank you very - those people. louisa, for the i moment, thank you very much. australia has become first country to allow doctors to prescribe mdma to treat ptsd and depression. authorised clinicians can also prescribe psilocybin, a compound found in magic mushrooms, for treatment. so, let's have a look at the saturday weather, all across the weekend as well. sarah?- weekend as well. sarah? good morning. _ weekend as well. sarah? good morning, charlie. _ weekend as well. sarah? good morning, charlie. party - weekend as well. sarah? good morning, charlie. party skies l morning, charlie. party skies overhead for many of us this morning. we start off the day on that fairly drizzly sort of note, this is the picture in suffolk, many of us are seeing skies like this, because we had three of today and tomorrow, as well, we are looking at

things brightening up. a weekend of some blustery showers, especially in the north, but sunny skies to be found further south. so we did have a lot of cloud which brought the rain yesterday, is 11 night, that area of cloud shifting awaited east and we got clear skies starting to work in from the atlantic, this is the radar from the few hours, you can see a peppering of blue. some light rain, drizzly spells, much of the uk. over the next few hours the clearest guys begin to work in from the south—west. a few showers, especially across parts of scotland, and more persistent rain across the north of scotland, fairly breezy here. furthersouth, more sunshine and fewer showers around, but here. further south, more sunshine and fewer showers around, but we will all notice the strength of that north—westerly breeze today. top temperatures between 1a and 23, north to south. a touch cooler than it has been. in fact, june has been the warmestjune on record in the uk, butjuly is starting off on a fresher note. as the ashes continue

at lords, we are likely to see lots of cloud around, which could bring the odd spot of drizzle, but through the odd spot of drizzle, but through the afternoon, i think lots of dry weather with the sunshine breaking through, 22 degrees, but would that westerly breeze really picking up. into this evening and overnight, most of the showers will fade away, driver most of us but still with some showers across of scotland, or persistent rain in the far north, winds could cost up to 50 miles an hour. they blustery sort of night. a touch cooler than the night we have seen, so temperatures for a few of us getting down to single figures. through the day tomorrow, fairly similar to today, we've still got low pressure sitting to the north of scotland, the wind rotating around that area of low pressure, bringing some showers around at times. another day of sunshine and showers tomorrow, but few are compared to today. the bulk of them will still be the northern ireland and scotland, with more persistent rain and cloud lingering in the northern isles and the north and mainland scotland as well. more sunshine further south, temperatures at best only 22 down towards the southeast, further north we are typically looking at the mid to high teens on

sunday. still fairly unsettled into the new working week as well, because low pressure just slowly drifting off towards the east, but a couple of frontal systems working around the area of low pressure. a few isobars on the map, fairly breezy day, starting off england and wales, but more showers moving in here, affecting northern ireland and scotland as well. temperature is about 1a—22, perhaps a touch below average for some of us. remaining fairly unsettled. but will stay the same for much of the week ahead. average household energy bills in england, wales and scotland will be lower from today as the regulator, ofgem, brings in its new price cap. typical annual costs will be reduced to £2,07a, a drop of £a26 a year — but charities have warned that millions of people will still struggle to pay, as prices remain higher than they were before the pandemic. our business correspondent mark ashdown has more.

for about 18 months now, energy bills have been rising and rising. they seem to be stabilising, but for millions of people it's still a struggle. yes, they're sort of stabilising which i guess is a relief in some sense... carly lives with her young son in a small flat in london. for a long time we've had the threat of them going up and up, we have had to live with this kind of increasing sort of stress and anxiety about how high our bills are going to go. so it is a relief that they are sort of stabilising, but they're still really high, they're still inaffordable, particularly with the cost of everything else going up. in 2019, the energy regulator, ofgem, introduced a price cap in england, scotland and wales to try to bring stability to the market. it's a maximum price that suppliers can charge consumers per unit of gas and electricity, and protects us all from paying over the odds. the cap is reviewed every three months to reflect wholesale prices. in april it was set at £3,280, so a typical household will pay no more than that for their energy.

but due to the government's energy price guarantee, those bills were actually capped at £2,500. now, from july, ofgem's cap has fallen to £2,07a, so it means the average consumer will see their bills fall by around £a26 per year. of course, if you use more energy, you will end up paying more. and those who pay by cash, cheque and bank transfer do end up of course, if you use more energy, you will end up paying more. and those who pay by cash, cheque and bank transfer do end up paying slightly more. analysts predict that energy bills will stay around this level for some years to come. we think that unfortunately, prices are likely to stay high until the end of this decade. that's because the competition for energy on the global stage is going to continue, and the challenges during the energy transition, as we use more local renewable power, that's something that is going to take time to implement. energy bills are still nearly double

what they were in 2019, when the price cap first came in. the charity citizen's advice says it helped 237,000 people with advice on their energy bills last year, more than any other cost—of—living topic. we know people are still really struggling at the moment. at citizen's advice we're helping nearly three people a minute with crisis support, and we are continuing to break really unwelcome records when it comes to helping people with energy debts. another charity, national energy action, says more than 6 million households are still in fuel poverty, meaning that after housing costs, they spend more than 10% of their income on energy. 0fgem says it works hard to support vulnerable consumers and anybody struggling with their bills should seek advice from their supplier. mark ashdown, bbc news. let's speak to sam williamson, deputy money editor at which?

on breakfast yesterday. we'll get advice on what your rights are, just after 8:00 this morning. stay with us, mike will be here with all the sport next.

hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. mike is here with the sport. start from scratch from this tale of the ashes for us because i remember vividly as sitting here and enthusing people who maybe don't watch the cricket or listening to the cricket saying the great thing is wouldn't have got this fantastic new approach to the game! they are going to go for it and new approach to the game! they are going to go for it and it new approach to the game! they are going to go for it and it is new approach to the game! they are going to go for it and it is going to be exciting all the time! lo and behold, here we are and there is a slightly different message going around. it slightly different message going around. . , . slightly different message going around. ., , ., , around. it was the ultimate test auoin around. it was the ultimate test going against — around. it was the ultimate test going against australia. - has as a ball as i like to call it. they are dealing with that attack, such fantastic. england probably should have won the first test, they had the aussies on the rope. second test has been a different story at lord's where australia have made it a home from home, they love playing

at lord's, great record there. they are now in a situation where australia could very well today or tomorrow go to up in the series and history tells us you don't come back and ashes are serious 2—0 down. now it is getting loads of criticism, their approach. it is getting loads of criticism, theirapproach. people it is getting loads of criticism, their approach. people saying england has been too stubborn, sticking with it, it is not working. you need to go bit more cautious against this very talented australian team. michael vaughan even stronger saying obviously this england team likes losing. talking about sham balic 's shots. so quickly the tide had turned against them. and england have to find something to bite back with. yeah, looking a bit desperate. we something to bite back with. yeah, looking a bit desperate.— looking a bit desperate. we remain o timistic. england have a mountain to climb, as they try to rescue the second ashes test at lords, after another day of mistakes against australia. chasing a first innings of 416, cavalier batting played into australian hands as england fizzled out for 325.

the tourists then set about about building a big lead and steve smith and usman khawaja will begin day four with their side on on 130/2, and already lead of 221, as they look to take a 2—0 lead in the series. but england aren't giving up hope. we still think the way we bowled tonight we probably should have had a few more wickets. he didn't go our way but that is ok and tomorrow we have another opportunity just way but that is ok and tomorrow we have another opportunityjust like have another opportunity just like we did have another opportunityjust like we did yesterday, that we can still then bowl them mountains chases go down. we have done it before. guys have a lot of confidence and ability to be able to do that. it is more about how we rock up. england's women will be hoping for a change in theirfortunes when they play australia in the first t20 match of their multi—format ashes series tonight. they lost by 89 runs at trent bridge on monday, in the one—off test match.

because of the way that that match is weighted in the scoring, heather knight's side must win five of the remaining six matches to win back the ashes. super excited, they are really strong t20 team, world champions, have to really take them on and try to play to our strengths and do the things that have worked so well for us in t20 so i'm excited. if sailing has the america's cup, american football has the superbowl, then cycling's pinnacle is very much the tour de france. over the next 23 days the world's fittest and fiercest competitors on two wheels will attempt to complete one of the most gruelling races in sport. ben croucher looks ahead. it might be three weeks long, but at the tour de france, there is little chance to admire the scenery. in cycling there is no stopping, no shortcuts. 176 riders starting the tour de france today might wish there were, for standing between them and the champ elysees are more than 2000 miles of suffering. starting across the border in bill bauer, 21 stages will see the riders

conquer cobbles, weather the elements, even climb a dormant volcano before arriving in paris. who should we be looking out for? you want to the defending champion and favourite once more, but the two time when it had a bigger truck, he is not 100% fit after a wrist injury, so britain's aaron yates wilco lead his team. mark cavendish will not wind overall but is bidding for a record—breaking 35th stage when in his final tour. that would take him clear of eldon legend eddie maddox. i take him clear of eldon legend eddie maddox. . . , , take him clear of eldon legend eddie maddox. ., ., , _ �* ., , maddox. i am happy. i've always had incredible memories _ maddox. i am happy. i've always had incredible memories of _ maddox. i am happy. i've always had incredible memories of the _ maddox. i am happy. i've always had incredible memories of the tour - maddox. i am happy. i've always had incredible memories of the tour de l incredible memories of the tour de france stops when 3a, i've got to be happy. if you win one stage of the tour de france, you are happy, you know? if i can win one more i will be even more happy. know? ifi can win one more i will be even more happy.— know? if! can win one more i will be even more happy. alongside the euhoria, be even more happy. alongside the euphoria. the _ be even more happy. alongside the euphoria, the harsh _ be even more happy. alongside the euphoria, the harsh realities. - be even more happy. alongside the euphoria, the harsh realities. two | euphoria, the harsh realities. two weeks ago, gino mader was killed after crashing on a downhill at the tour dismiss. last year, britain's tom pidcock wowed with a virtuoso dissent, but he says he will not take unnecessary risks. it hit

everyone hard. it showed me what the consequences can be when it goes wrong. these things can happen, we're riding down at 100 commenters now in lycra. yeah. it is not, you know, we are not surrounded by phone. the tour are stepping up safety measures as a result. nonetheless, the rhonda buechler is a race like no other. forfans it is a race like no other. forfans it is a pilgrimage, for teams it is a puzzle, the riders it is purgatory and paradise all at once. for those able to endure all the tour de france has to throw at them, the view from the top is quite some. ben croucher, bbc news. meanwhile, torrential rain has caused the first stage of the women's giro de i'italia, to be cancelled. a prologue time trial in siena was abandoned due to flooding. the race will now effectively start from stage two today. 0nto football, and a big moment for the arsenal defenderjen beattie as she signed a new contract with the club, months

after overcoming cancer. the centre back, who's now 32, has spent two spells with the gunners, having re—joined the club in 2019. beattie confirmed earlier this year that she is now cancer—free. another day and another player leaves chelsea, with ac milan signing midfielder ruben loftus—cheek. he's been at the club, since the age of eight, coming through the youth set up. he won the premier leaue and europa league with the blues, and said it is 'hard to say goodbye�*. he's among a number of players, who are departing as the club look to balance the books, after a huge outlay last season. and what about the manchester united goalkeeper, david de gea, after his contract came to an end, yesterday, and with no decision yet, over whether he will remain at old trafford. de gea, had agreed to a new contract earlier this month, but it was then withdrawn by united. it means he'll become a free agent after 12 years with the club. justin rose has kept his lead heading into today's third round at the british masters — but onlyjust! the englishman had a terrible opening to his round yesterday, but managed to recover well

to finish on 6—under—par overall. that gives a share of the lead with france's antoine rozner. wimbledon gets under way in just two days time, with 1a british players in the singles draw. the standout tie, is two time champion andy murray, taking on fellow brit ryan penniston. he made his atp tour debut last summer and had a superb run, to the queen's quarter—finals that year. he's currently ranked 267th in the world. players from the pacific islands, are having a massive impact in rugby league, helping the promoted leigh leopards jump up to second in the super league. edwin eipape from papua new guinea, was one of the architects, creating the chance forjosh charnley as leigh thrashed hull kr 3a points to 1l they scored six in total. elsewhere there were also wins for wigan, st helens and bottom side

wakefield. 0nto athletics and keely hodgkinson had to settle for silver in the diamond league 800 metres. remember that hodgkinson broke her own british record, in her first race of the summer in paris earlier this month, but was beaten here in lausanne by commonwealth champion mary moraa. the kenyan ran a strong home straight to beat hodgkinson byjust under a second. the cold conditions weren't ideal for the sprinters but britain's darryll neita also managed second in the 100 metres. first place went to africa's fastest woman, mariejosee ta lou. and finally, 7,000 tonnes of dirt has been dumped onto the pitch at villa park, home of aston villa, because the action is going to get a bit dirty tonight. this week the stadium has been transformed so it can host the british leg of the world super cross championship this evening. the a0 best riders from across the world will be racing wheel to wheel around the track, taking to the air, in this opening round of the global competition. a year ago it attracted sell—out crowds in cardiff, which means the british

round is here to stay. among the riders will be home heroes max anstie and dean wilson. anstie, from newbury in berkshire, finished second in the world in 2022, while wilson will be flying the saltire for scotland. and hoping to be spraying the champagne on the podium later on today. champagne on the podium later on toda ., , champagne on the podium later on toda . g , ., ., ., champagne on the podium later on toda .g , . ., ., , champagne on the podium later on toda .g , . . ., , today. just amazing what they can do. today. just amazing what they can d0- amazing- _ today. just amazing what they can do. amazing. thanks _ today. just amazing what they can do. amazing. thanks very - today. just amazing what they can do. amazing. thanks very much, l today. just amazing what they can - do. amazing. thanks very much, mike. people visiting and living alongside the river hull say the peaceful environment they're use to has been ruined by the arrival of jet ski and speed boat users. the river has a speed limit of six miles per hour, but boat clubs say these rules are being ignored and are calling for those responsible to go somewhere else. crispin rolfe has the story. how rivers should be, and the

unlimited fines. this section of the river hull are to continue beverly has other safety issues too, that the environment agency says it is working to improve things. the question remains, he was going to policejet ski uses question remains, he was going to police jet ski uses to ensure they stick to a six mile an hour limit on our waterways? crispin rolfe, stick to a six mile an hour limit on ourwaterways? crispin rolfe, bbc news. here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. there have been changes, and i am not sure if there are going to be more changes on the way? i think we have been slightly spoiled, if you enjoyed it, with all but warm weather? that's right. during 2023 has been the warmestjune on record in the uk, but actually, the last few days of the month with that cool air moving on, some showers around as well, and that settlement for sheffield will continue through the first few days ofjuly as well. we are starting to see a bit of

sunshine breaking through, coming in from the west, this is the picture in devon. some blue skies around, generally through the week and things will brighten up, it will be a weekend of sunshine and showers but most of the showers are going to be around the north, fewer further south and it will feel quite blustery and breezy out there, wherever you are. cloud that brought the rain from yesterday and overnight, you can see that on the satellite clearing towards the east. something a bit brighter moving on, atlanticare something a bit brighter moving on, atla ntica re following something a bit brighter moving on, atlanticare following behind. this is the radar from the past few hours, it shows that speckled blue almost anywhere, there has been a bit of drizzle and light rain, more persistent rain for the western isles and northern isles, that will linger for parts of northern scotland as well. a scattering of showers for scotland and northern ireland, a few across the pennines, further south across england and wales, more likely to stay dry into the afternoon, longer spells of sunshine, not as warm as it has been, temperatures in the south, 2223 degrees, typically the mid to high teens further north today, but

you will notice the wind wherever you will notice the wind wherever you are, especially across parts of scotland. if you are having to see the cricket today, the ashes that lord is continuing, it is fairly cloudy, the odd spot of drizzle around over the next few hours, more sunshine developing through the day, a bit of westerly breeze and temperatures up to about 22 degrees. through this evening and tonight, most of us the showers will ease away. lots of dry weather on the clouds. still that persistent and heavy rain across the north of scotland, quite windy tonight as well, but a touch cool and fresher thanit well, but a touch cool and fresher than it has been. temperatures between about 9— 12 degrees as you start your sunday morning. low pressure sitting to the northeast of the uk, tomorrow we have the wind coming in from the west or north—west once again, we've got that more persistent rain sitting across the far north of scott, but for the rest of the uk, sunshine and showers. like today, the bulk of the showers. like today, the bulk of the showers will be to scotland, northern ireland and northern england, probably those temperatures just one degree down on today, 14—

22 degrees, another fairly breezy day, not as windy as yesterday in the north. heading through into monday, low pressure gradually easing towards the east but we've got a few fronts coming in from the north—west. another fairly showery picture on monday, showers from scotland for the word go, northern ireland and england, showers moving and later in the day, some of those could push towards wimbledon during the afternoon. which of course starts on monday.— the afternoon. which of course starts on monday. now, as repairjobs go, this one's pretty unique. an old coal barge has been given a new lease of life — and new cargo — after being transformed into a floating bookshop. the boat, called marjorie r, has now been recognised with a flagship award for its historic importance, as cathy killick has been finding out.

bbc news gave a statement in response to those points.

uk to leave the european union. tonight to post—brexit britain we have audience of leave voters. we are in essex, 73% of people here voted to leave, that is the second highest in the country. but what do they think of it all now? welcome to question time. although some of those in the audience had changed their mind about leaving the european union and the panel contained a mixture, a number of viewers thought the programme lacked balance. �* ., we were given this statement in response.

wondered about the thinking behind that last move, asking... peter privett wasn't a fan of the changes. but ian williams was much more enthusiastic.

bbc news design director peter day explained the thinking behind the changes as follows. on that subject, you may have noticed that we have been confined this to this rather small space for the past few weeks while work is being done on our normal studio but pleased to say we will be back in our regular home from next week with our very own red sofa. finally, it has been pretty warm across the uk over the past few weeks and visitors to the bbc�*s weather website and app and viewers of thursday's news at ten had a bit of thursday's news at ten had a bit of a shock over the last couple of days when they were told what the temperature would be next week. have a look at those numbers on the screen. the july.

in the story for people watching this morning, because it feels like it has been dragging on for a while. it is not entirely over yet, is it? not entirely. we are getting towards the end of this phase of the story. a quick reminder of sue gray, very well within whitehall, a very senior civil servant. most people i think will never as the offer of that report into lockdown parties which proved pretty disastrous for boris johnson. in march she announced she was looking to leave the civil service and taking a very seniorjob within the labour leader, sir keir starmer�*s team. that raised questions of impartiality of her undertaking that report. also broader concerns about what this said about impartiality within the civil service, whether it car some questions over that. what we had yesterday was the body that looks

into this reporting on it, saying there was a conversation between the sir keir starmer and sue gray back in october last year. they did not discuss government business, they did discuss the possibility of a job. beyond that, they said there was nojob offer until job. beyond that, they said there was no job offer until march. job. beyond that, they said there was nojob offer until march. they shared concerns about the reputation of the civil service, but they said it did not affect herjudgment. therefore they said it was appropriate to have a six—month gap between leaving the civil service and before she joined the between leaving the civil service and before shejoined the labour party. some tories are fuming, they said that keir starmer should have known better. we are expecting a report on monday saying that the civil service code was broken by sue gray, but there is no power in a really. unless something really unexpected happens, she will become sir keir starmer�*s chief of staff from september of this year.

let's return to our main story in france. over1000 let's return to our main story in france. over 1000 people were arrested in france is more disruption took place. let's speak to our europe editor, katya adler, who's in the nanterre suburb of paris this morning. more arrests and more offence put in place after that emergency meeting held by president macron? that place after that emergency meeting held by president macron?- held by president macron? that is riaht, held by president macron? that is right. more _ held by president macron? that is right, more measures, _ held by president macron? that is right, more measures, but - held by president macron? that is. right, more measures, but crucially not a state of emergency. that's something that the far right in france and police unions have also been calling on the government to do more, tougher measures. 79 police officers were injured over night, there were more than 2500 fires across france. although paris was slightly calmer last night, but there were still at least 120 arrests there. but france's second and third largest cities, lyon and

marseille, were ablaze. the mayor of marseilles asked for more forces to come in. we did see more personnel carriers come onto the streets of lyon. where i am, this server is where the 17—year—old on nahel, lived and died. this morning, it is actuallyjust normal residents buying their baguettes for breakfast and kind of peering at the scenes of devastation in their neighbourhood. this is just a few hours before nahel�*s funeral. his family have asked for calm, and so has france's national football team as well, they say that there are issues to sort in france in neighbourhoods like this, which is home to many minority groups, but they say this is not the

affecting the reputation of france's president, who is receiving criticism from both the far right and the far left. of course, he is also losing credibility in the eyes of his people. he is talking about getting the situation under control, but there is no sign of it. yesterday in his crisis meeting, it pulled him away from a meeting of eu leaders, talking about russia's invasion of ukraine. he had to come here and ended up appealing to mums and dads, saying keep your kids at home. so many of the rioters are under the age of 18. he says keep them off social media. the french authorities have also spoken to social media platforms, appealing to them to keep sensitive material off those platforms, because that's what a lot of people are saying, i'd meet on the streets at night.

showers further south. this morning we still have a legacy of cloud behind, this is the cloud that brought yesterday's rain, which was allegedly cleared and awaited the east. the radar in the past few hours does show a speckling of brood. we have some phil hogg around this morning too. the next couple of hours, the cloud breaking up. for northern ireland and scotland, we will see those showers interspersed with some sunshine as well. more persistent rain across the north of scotland, where it will also be windy. if you are going to be heading to lords today to watch the ashes, this morning it is cloudy, fairly grey, we have had some drizzle already. a noticeable

westerly wind developing there, and wherever you are you will notice that breeze. it will gradually dry down this evening and overnight for most of us as showers fade away. pretty wet and windy overnight for the north of scotland. sunday, we have still got low pressure setting just to the north—east of the uk, they wind are rotating around that so they are bringing more showers. tomorrow pretty similar to today, but i think more sunshine from the word go tomorrow. a few showers for parts of wales, through the pennines, northern ireland and scotland once again seeing those showers. temperatures probablyjust showers. temperatures probably just down showers. temperatures probablyjust down a notch compared to today. but it won't be quite as breezy out there today. moving into monday, showers still rotating around the

area of low pressure, coming in from the west and north—west. some showers across west scotland from the word go. they shall rain moves in across northern ireland, later into england and wales, perhaps reaching wimbledon later on, the first day of the championships. temperatures average for this time of year. yesterday on breakfast we spoke about the delays millions of royal mail customers are experiencing — with letters and parcels taking longer than expected to arrive, or not showing up at all. hundreds of you have been in touch since to share your experiences, and the knock—on impact it's had. take a look. i'v e i've received a war widow pension, part of which is a child allowance. the trend uk, which is part of the

because we get think of looking back it would come back the next day. then it turned out to be incredibly complicated to hire a wheelchair in paris. it should been a bit of a nightmare. we put a lot into this trap come back the next day. then it turned out to be incredibly complicated to hire a wheelchair in paris. it should been a bit of a nightmare. we put a lot into this trap, we put a lot of planning into it, and we we have got the foot plates! wejust it, and we we have got the foot plates! we just haven't got the chair. this is unlike last time, were they lost the foot plates but gave us about the chair. we need the chair and the wheels. the foot plates was with the wheelchair, was it? we the foot plates was with the wheelchair, was it? we learnt this the last time. _ wheelchair, was it? we learnt this the last time, we _ wheelchair, was it? we learnt this the last time, we were _ wheelchair, was it? we learnt this the last time, we were new- wheelchair, was it? we learnt this the last time, we were new to - wheelchair, was it? we learnt thisj the last time, we were new to this the last time, we were new to this the first time we travelled with a

what was happening. whether they found the wheelchair. whether we were ever going to get it back. there was no communication for three days. i got a bit desperate, i e—mailed the ceo and i copied in my mp. e-mailed the ceo and i copied in my mp. �* , ., e-mailed the ceo and i copied in my mp. ~ , a, , e-mailed the ceo and i copied in my mp. �* , ., , ., e-mailed the ceo and i copied in my mp. , mp. anyone listening to you can clearly hear _ mp. anyone listening to you can clearly hear the _ mp. anyone listening to you can clearly hear the frustration. - mp. anyone listening to you can clearly hear the frustration. am | mp. anyone listening to you can | clearly hear the frustration. am i allowed to ask you about whether, you are still in paris, michael is still there with you, what is the plan for the day? i know this has put a shadow of our everything for you, but can you have any holiday? ! you, but can you have any holiday? i feel bad complaining given everything else that's going on in paris. we are in a lovely city, lovely weather. but it is tiring for michael to do anything, so we have to take taxis door—to—door, which is not what we planned. we go to places

where you can set down a lot. we have done the boots, the buses, we go to museums where we can borrow a wheelchair. but still she is getting tired walking up and down pavements, we normally push him to keep his energy for when we get to the places. i don't know what we will do today, we will hire a taxi and go somewhere and see something. i hope for your sake... somewhere and see something. i hope foryoursake... it somewhere and see something. i hope for your sake... it is going to be too late, frankly, but i hope you get some kind of answer at least. thank you very much, pass on our best to my call. enjoy the rest of your trip. we have done studies many times about the problems people have with disabilities on airlines. it is 8.30

plenty coming up on the programme including the return of summer blockbusters, we will be talking about the big film set in cinema screens this month and what it means for the industry. —— the big films hitting cinema screens. a few years ago, my daughters had lots of barbies. i am very familiar with them. sport time, time for sport. england has gone out of this strategy and was greatly praised for it at the last test. but this time,

stroller�*s conservativism and experience has proven. having lost are tested we should have won, that put pressure on them. england have a mountain to climb if they're to save the second ashes test after an awful third day against australia at lord's. england were all out for 325, before the aussies once again set about their hosts with the bat. the tourists will resume their second innings this morning with a lead of 221. our sports correspondent joe wilson reports. up the steps, turn right for the changing rooms. make way — these are the australians who've got batting

to do at lords, and they will take it at their own pace. england's frantic risk and reward stuff was just a brief feature of friday. harry brook did what australia wanted him to, and jonny bairstow hit the ball into the waiting hands of australia's captain. even the gentle occasional spin bowling of travis head claimed two wickets. it all amounted to just 325 all out. all over very quickly. 50 australia began their second innings with a sizeable lead, but when it's gloomy up above, it's a good time to bowl. england urgently had to create chances, and take them. an early opportunity to dismiss usman khawaja — no. england did get rid of david warner lbw, and who's the bowler who's impressed on his ashes debut? josh tongue, it's you. khawaja watches, waits, a ball to hit? yeah, and he hits it. classic test cricket. it's the way he got to another 50.

labuschagne is out but steve smith remains, scoring that way, scoring his way. australia 130—2, 221 ahead. before long they might seem out of sight. joe wilson, bbc news, lords. it's also an uphill struggle for england's women, who need to start their fightback, when they play australia, in the first t20, match of their multi—format ashes series, tonight. they lost the one—off test match by 89 runs at trent bridge on monday, and because of the way that that match is weighted, in the scoring, heather knight's side must win five of the remaining six matches to win back the ashes. super excited, they're a really strong t20 team that are world champions so we're going to have to really take them on, try and play to our strengths and do the things that have worked so well for us for us in t—20. so, yeah, i'm excited

to get into battle. cycling's biggest stage race, the tour de france, gets under way today. don't get confused that, it is starting in spain. bilbao has the honour of the grand depart, with the first three stages in spain before returning to france. british interest is likely to be limited to stage wins, with a retiring mark cavendish, hoping to break eddy merckx's long—standing record of 34. further east, across the mediteranean, d'italia to be cancelled. a prologue time trial in siena was abandoned due to flooding. the race will now effectively start from stage two today. onto football and we are now into world cup month, being the firstjuly, and england lionesses play portugal today in milton keynes, before flying out to australia next week for the world cup. england will also take on canada,

to their round of golf this weekend, take inspiration from this man. justin rose has kept his lead, heading into today's third round at the british masters — but only just! the englishman had a terrible opening to his round yesterday, but managed to recover well to finish on six under par overall. that gives a share of the lead with france's antoine rozner. wimbledon gets under way in just two days' time, the standout tie is two—time champion andy murray taking on fellow brit ryan penniston. he made his atp tour debut last summer and had a superb run, to the queen's quarterfinals that year. he's currently ranked 267th in the world. coco gauff�*s preparation for wimbledon is complete, albeit slightly earlier than she would have wanted. gauff lost in straight sets to fellow american madison keys in the semifinals of the eastbourne international. keys will play daria kasatkina

we have some share and fewer showers the further south you are, but a blustery sort of weekend. the cloud that brought yesterday's rain and drizzle overnight towards the east, so in the satellite pictures and clear skies moving in from the atlantic, also bringing a few showers. so be read out from the past few hours showers a speckling of blue almost anywhere, so this is light rain and drizzle but heavier inserts across parts of the western isles, up towards sutherland and the northern isles. blustery and wet here, but for the rest of the uk, sunny spells, especially further south and east you are, but more showers packing in towards scotland and northern ireland as well. top tabs in the north, the mid to high teens, further south 20 to 23 celsius today. if you want to watch cricket, a cloudy morning, a few spots of drizzle around there at the

moment but things are drying up. sunny spells later on, but a noticeable westerly breeze blowing as well, so just taking the edge of the temperature, a bit of a fresh feeling day. through this evening and to note, most of the showers will easily, still quite wonder across parts of scotland with that heavy rain continuing in the final. a cooler now than we saw last night, tenth just getting down into single figures in the more rural spots. to start your day on sunday, a bit more sunshine first thing then we have out there this morning. low pressure still sitting to the north and north—east of the uk, winds rotating around that, bringing more showers at times, and the bulk of them will be in the north, suffer northern ireland and much of scotland, scattered showers, another breezy day but not quite as windy as today. more persistent rain in the far north of scotland, but dry and sunny conditions to the midlands, parts of wales, southern england, temperatures up to about 22 celsius also. towards the new working week, pressure not moving away in a hurry,

sitting out towards scandinavia, so the wind is again coming from a north—westerly direction, a few frontal systems moving through on that breeze. showers for scotland on sunday from the word go, dry elsewhere, but more showers coming in from the west late in the day, perhaps reaching [and and i think later on monday. but some sunshine around as well, temperatures around 14 to 22 celsius, but a fairly up and down sort of weak, fell and settled, shall moving around at times, some sunshine but perhaps something a bit warmer as we look toward the end of the week. this month, the nhs celebrates 75 years, and for many who work for it, the role is more thanjust a job. caroline price has dedicated 46 years to supporting cancer patients, and as she celebrates her retirement, she's been telling david allard what the health service has meant to her. what has the nhs meant to you? i

creating a 3d map of galaxies formed around 10 billion years ago. our science editor rebecca morelle reports. stunning images of our cosmos, but what we can see makes up a tiny fraction of what's really out there. the rest is known as the dark universe. we can't see it and scientists don't really know what it is. now a new mission is about to try and shed light on this mystery. it's just like trying to set off on a ship before people knew where [and was in different directions, now we're just trying to map out the universe and try and understand where we fit into it and how we've got here and how the whole universe has got from the point of the big bang to what we have now. the european agency's

spacecraft is called euclid and it will be making a vast 3d map of the cosmos. it's trying to understand phenomena called dark energy and dark matter. so what is dark matter? galaxies like our own milky way are held together by gravity. the force comes from everything that's in them — the stars, the planets, the dust. the thing is, all of this material doesn't provide enough gravity to stop these great spirals from flying apart. there's something else there, a cosmic glue that we can't see that adds the extra gravity to bind them together, and that's dark matter. scientists think dark matter makes up about 25% of the universe. the material we can see, regular matter, accounts for only 5%. they believe the other 70% is dark energy. what's dark energy? since the big bang, the universe has been expanding with galaxies moving ever further apart. scientists had thought that over

time this would slow down, but actually, this expansion is speeding up, and it's thought that a mysterious force, dark energy, is driving this. it could enormously influence the fate of our universe. how far is it going to expand? is it going to go forever and accelerate and just get bigger and biggerand bigger more rapidly? is it going tojust rip apart? or will it perhaps collapse back down again? and understanding that fifth force, if that's what dark energy is, will help us understand, you know, not only where we came from, but where we're going in this universe. uk scientists have played a key role in this mission, leading on one of its main instruments — the visible light camera. the components were built at the mullard space science laboratory. it will take incredibly detailed images of billions of galaxies. to study the dark universe, it will have to spot the tiniest distortions. we won't be able to see dark matter and energy, we infer it from the movement of the visible objects that

we can see, and that's why it has to be high resolution, high precision instrumentation to actually... it might be the faintest of wobbles we've got in a star that give away the presence of the dark matter and dark energy. it will take the spacecraft six years to complete its map of the sky, but scientists say the wait will be worth it. what it discovers could mean fundamental changes to our understanding of the universe. rebecca morelle, bbc news. we're nowjoined by cosmotologist professor andrew pontzen. the universe is one of those things i think is so difficult to comprehend, because it is infinite, i think, yet you have written a book thatis i think, yet you have written a book that is about the universe in a box, so just write a simple that. can you describe the universe so we can imagine it in a box of it is not a never ending?—

as 13 detained. average household energy bills fall as a new price cap comes into effect. england's hopes hang by a thread after an awful day for them in the second ashes test, with the match and the series slipping away from them going into day four at lords. and, after we revealed tony christie and sting have recorded thank you for being a friend to mark thank you day for carers, anneka rice lends a hand helping care home residents sing along. a fairly blustery weekend ahead,a mix of sunshine developing and scattered showers, most of them in north, a few further south. all the details on bbc breakfast. it's saturday, july 1.

almost 1,000 people — including children as young as 13 — have been arrested during a fourth night of violence and looting across france. the widespread unrest broke out after a 17—year—old boy was shot dead by police during a traffic stop on tuesday. his funeral will be held later today. our correspondent, rajini vaidyanathan, has the latest. across france, yet more rage. streets under siege, a dramatic outpouring of anger, after a 17—year—old, nahel, was killed by police during a traffic stop. many of the rioters are teenagers, out despite a plea from france's president to parents to keep their children at home. as the protests have intensified, so too has the police presence. across the country from friday into saturday morning, more than 45,000 officers were deployed — and it's the police

that's driving people onto the streets in the first place. many here accuse officers of discrimination, and even the un says france needs to address its deep—rooted issues of racism in the police force. chanting: justice for nahel! it's a concern crowds at this protest share. the country's foreign ministry says the un's claims are unfounded, but the french police have long been plagued by accusations of racism. many see this violence as a wake—up call, but for the government, containing it is a challenge. what began with the death of nahel has now come to represent something bigger. rajini vaidyanathan, bbc news. our reporter, sofia bettiza, joins us now from roubaix.

sofia, what's the latest on the ground there? what are you hearing there after these latest arrests and disruption? the situation this morning here is still very tense. for the fourth night in a row, there have been violent protests across france. the worst of the violence was in lyon and marseille, where shops were looted and cars were set on fire. but the situation was bad here as well, about 70 people were arrested here. you can see behind me what remains of a big building. about 500 officers were here. this was a really important part of this community. rioters came in the middle of the night and set the building on fire. you might be able to still see some of the smack. people in the community has been

telling us, what is the point of destroying buildings like this one, pharmacies, schools, theatres? they feel this is not the right way to demand justice for nahel. overnight across france at the rioting was not as bad as the previous night. that is probably because there is a massive police presence in the country. around 45,000 extra officers were deployed. curfews were imposed on some neighbourhoods on unaccompanied minors because so many of those protesting were young protesters, some as young as 13. the feeling here this morning is that the french government is regaining some control over the situation. but there are still fears that more violence and more riots could take place in the coming days.

we have seen our energy bills increase over the last 18 months. average household energy bills in england, wales and scotland will be lower from today as the regulator, ofgem, brings in its new price cap. typical annual costs will be reduced to £2074 — a drop of £426 a year. our business correspondent, mark ashdown, reports. for about 18 months now, energy bills have been rising and rising. they seem to be stabilising, but for millions of people it's still a struggle. yes, they're sort of stabilising which i guess is a relief in some sense... carly lives with her young son in a small flat in london. for a long time we've had the threat of them going up and up, we have had to live with this kind of increasing sort of stress and anxiety about how high our bills are going to go. so it is a relief that they are sort of stabilising, but they're still really high, they're still inaffordable, particularly with the cost

of everything else going up. in 2019, the energy regulator, ofgem, introduced a price cap in england, scotland and wales to try to bring stability to the market. it's a maximum price that suppliers can charge consumers per unit of gas and electricity, and protects us all from paying over the odds. the cap is reviewed every three months to reflect wholesale prices. in april it was set at £3,280, so a typical household will pay no more than that for their energy. but due to the government's energy price guarantee, those bills were actually capped at £2,500. now, from july, ofgem's cap has fallen to £2,074, so it means the average consumer will see their bills fall by around £426 per year. of course, if you use more energy, you will end up paying more. and those who pay by cash, cheque and bank transfer do end up paying slightly more. analysts predict that energy bills will stay around this level for some years to come.

we think that unfortunately, prices are likely to stay high until the end of this decade. that's because the competition for energy on the global stage is going to continue, and the challenges during the energy transition, as we use more local renewable power, that's something that is going to take time to implement. energy bills are still nearly double what they were in 2019, when the price cap first came in. the charity, citizen's advice, says it helped 237,000 people with advice on their energy bills last year, more than any other cost—of—living topic. we know people are still really struggling at the moment. at citizen's advice we're helping nearly three people a minute with crisis support, and we are continuing to break really unwelcome records when it comes to helping people with energy debts. another charity, national energy action, says more than six million households are still in fuel

poverty, meaning that after housing costs, they spend more than 10% of their income on energy. 0fgem says it works hard to support vulnerable consumers and anybody struggling with their bills should seek advice from their supplier. mark ashdown, bbc news. a column byjeremy clarkson in the sun newspaper has been found to be sexist by the press watchdog. a record 25,000 people complained to the independent press standards organisation about the article. david sillito reports. jeremy clarkson's column from december of last year was all about how much he hated the duchess of sussex, and that he dreamt of seeing her: 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 that 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 also 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. time is up, we are going to stand together and hold our press to account and say that it is not acceptable to perpetuate these kinds of hateful ideas any more.

and while there was no comment from meghan and harry, it's understood they were happy for the complaint to go forward about an article prince harry described as "horrific, hurtful and cruel." david sillito, bbc news. a 15—year—old boy and a 23—year—old man have been stabbed to death in north london. police were called to an address archway on thursday night. a third person is being treated in hospital. no arrests have been made. former civil servant sue gray — who led the inquiry into lockdown parties in downing street — has been cleared to work for the labour party. we're joined by our political correspondent, tony bonsignore. in what is quite a convoluted story and picture, one thing is certain now, we do know that sue gray will start work for the labour party in september a the story is a little convoluted. september a the story is a little

convoluted-— convoluted. sue gray a very respected — convoluted. sue gray a very respected civil— convoluted. sue gray a very respected civil servant, - convoluted. sue gray a very respected civil servant, she | convoluted. sue gray a very - respected civil servant, she left a civil service in march. there were questions about when she first spoke to labour. but we have got some facts on that now. no body can look into this reported yesterday that there was a conversation between sir keir starmer and sue gray back in october, but no government business was discussed. yes, it does not look great for the civil service, yes, this should be a six—month delay until she can take up that position. but it says there was no question at all about her impartiality or her decision—making. some conservatives have been furious about this, particularly given her role in that partygate report, which was so important in ending borisjohnson's time in downing street. questions about the civil service, whether it is right for this to be happening. on monday you are expecting the cabinet office to say that she did

break rules. all that aside, she has left. in september, she will be joining the labour party as sir keir starmer�*s chief of staff. if you're a runner you'll know how important wearing the right shoes are — and for one unique race in spain, the higher the better. dozens of people, most of them men, put on their high heels and raced down the streets of madrid, as part of the cities as part of the city's pride celebrations. heels have to be at least 10cm high, and runners must cross the finish line with a purse in hand, and their lipstick applied. i want to know how long is the race. i want to know how long is the race. i can only imagine that the injuries could be awful. ankles, that's where you would worry. some speed on those, and those are platforms! i

atlantic. over the past few hours we have kept the cloud and drizzly rain. a speckle of blue almost anywhere, the heaviest of the rain across northern and western parts of scotland. that will be the picture through today, we keep that heavy rain to the north. scattered showers generally across the north and north—west. further east across england and wales are likely to miss most of the showers. on the strength of the edge off the feel of those temperatures. if you are heading to lord's as the ashes continue today, there has been a bit of cloud this morning, but from now on the skies are going to brighton. just the small chance of a light, passing shower. into the evening hours, showers tending to fade away for

most of us, but some containing across northern and western scotland, perhaps northern ireland overnight as well. for most of us under those clear skies it will be a touch cooler and fresher that it was last night. sunday pretty similar to today, that area of low pressure setting out to the north—east, the winds rotating around the still bringing a few showers. but again, most persistent for the likes of caithness, asked about the northern isles as well. further south and east, you are more than likely to stay dry. but you could just patch a —— catch a passing shower. temperatures tomorrow probablyjust temperatures tomorrow probably just down temperatures tomorrow probablyjust down a touch on today, but not quite as breezy and at the north. no great change moving into one day, low pressure drifts way slowly toward scandinavia. we still have the west, northwesterly winds. more showers

for scotland from the word go and more rain moving through the form of an island in the afternoon. no catch one or two showers for wimbledon later on monday. —— may catch one or two. a silent disco, sequins, and the eulogy delivered by none other than the vicar of dibley — not what you'd necessarily expect at a funeral, but for cancer campaigner, kris hallenga, it was everything she'd imagined. kris, who is living with stage four breast cancer, joined herfamily and friends at her own living funeral earlier this month, and hopes to encourage others to be more open about death. she spoke with our reporterjohn danks. kris was only 23 when she was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer. through her charity, coppafeel, she's since raised awareness of how the disease can affect younger people.

earlier this year, kris decided to organise her own living funeral. i've been living with a terminal diagnosis for 14 years. i've been very aware of my mortality for a really long time. and so this isn't an overnight thing for me. but more recently i have wondered why we celebrate people's lives when they when they're dead. determined to put the "fun" into funeral, kris has included lots of dancing, a silent disco and dawn french as the vicar of dibley, delivering the eulogy at truro cathedral. i done a lot of research on kris and it is crystal clear he thought i done a lot of research on kris and it is kris—stal clear he thought it was the best day of my life. it was, i think, everything i had imagined. i felt such love, so much joy. being surrounded by all of my

favorite people in the whole entire world was just, it was very meaningful and very, very special. it was a ceremony full of special moments. my friend was playing the piano, and it was so beautiful. she said this is an opportunity for people to go up and write on the casket if they wanted to. and... sorry. it was just so beautiful. with this celebration of her life, kris hopes to encourage others to talk about death. just do something that feels right for you and the people in your life, and don't be afraid to have those conversations. our thanks to kris for talking with others. we're joined now by jane duncan rogers founder of before i go solutions, which encourages people to talk and plan ahead of death. jane, that film we played i was

# thank you for being a friend..# to celbrate tony christie and sting have recorded this 19705 hit, raising both awareness and money for dementia and are confident. it making people think about it and not be ashamed of it. it's a battle some people are fighting at the front line, but maybe a battle we're all fighting eventually. so i'm happy to lend a hand and they want everyone to join in this national singalong. anneka rice has come to help with rehearsals. herfather had dementia. and did he still recognise you? didn't recognise me, but he knew he loved me. it was a really sweet thing. so when i turned up, his eyes would light up like a child seeing someone they recognized. my great thing with my dad was looking at colour swatches because we both loved doing diy, so we'd get the old colour swatches off and i'd go, that blue would look really nice.

and one day ijust said to dad, "do you know who i am? what do you think my name is?" and he looked at me with such sweetness, just said, "dulux." the carers and the managers here are the ones that we should be thanking. that's what you call a friend. and tomorrow, along with many others, we'll get that chance as the nation comes together to sing their thanks. fiona lamdin, bbc news. coming up to half past nine. we have a few until ten o'clock, that is when mack takes over in the saturday kitchen. matt, what's on the menu for us? did you like the lycra thing? you could show _ did you like the lycra thing? you could show us _ did you like the lycra thing? you could show us if— did you like the lycra thing? you could show us if you are wearing lycra. could show us if you are wearing l cra. �* .. . could show us if you are wearing lcra.�* ., ., ,~ ., lycra. i'm not wearing the lycra, i've not lycra. i'm not wearing the lycra, we got slacks — lycra. i'm not wearing the lycra,

let's hope it england have a mountain to climb, as they try to rescue the second ashes test at lords, after another day of mistakes against australia. chasing a first innings of 416, cavalier batting, played into australian hands as england fizzled out, for 325. the tourists then set about building a big lead, and steve smith and usman khawaja will begin day four, with their side on on 130—2, and already lead of 221, as they look to take a 2—0 lead in the series. but england aren't giving up hope. we still think the way we bowled tonight, we should have had a few more wickets. it did not go our way, but that is ok, we have another opportunity tomorrow. we can still bowl them out and then achieves this goal, we have done it before. the guys have a lot of confidence and ability to be able to do that. finished short today, but a very

short cuts. 176 riders starting the tour de france. they might wish they were, between them and the champs—elysees hundreds of miles of suffering. it will even claim a dormant volcano before arriving in paris. the defending champion is the favourite once more, but to tone and admits he is not 100% fit after a wrist injury. mark cavendish will not win overall, but is bidding for a record—breaking 35th stage win in his final tour, that had taken clear of the belgian legend eddie marx. i have happy, i have all had incredible memories of the tour de france, if you win one stage of the tour de france, you're happy. so if i can win one more, i will always be even more happy. i can win one more, i will always be even more happy-— even more happy. alonso the euphoria. _ even more happy. alonso the euphoria, the _ even more happy. alonso the euphoria, the harsh - even more happy. alonso the euphoria, the harsh realities. j even more happy. alonso the -

euphoria, the harsh realities. two weeks ago, a cyclist died after crashing on a downhill. last year, torn pidcock impressed but he said he will not take any unnecessary risks. it hit everyone hard, shows what the consequences can be when things go wrong _ consequences can be when things go wrong. things can happen when you are riding _ wrong. things can happen when you are riding at— wrong. things can happen when you are riding at those sort of speeds. we are _ are riding at those sort of speeds. we are hot— are riding at those sort of speeds. we are not surrounded by phone. the two are we are not surrounded by phone. inez two are stepping we are not surrounded by phone. ii;e: two are stepping up we are not surrounded by phone. "ii9: two are stepping up safety we are not surrounded by phone. ii9: two are stepping up safety measures as a result. nonetheless, it is a race like no other. a pilgrimage for fans, purgatory and paradise for riders all at once. few are able to endure all the tour de france has to offer them —— the tour are stepping up offer them —— the tour are stepping up safety measures.

at least they will have drier weather than across the mediteranean, where torrential rain caused the first stage, of the women's giro d'italia to be cancelled. a prologue time trial in siena was abandoned due to flooding. the riders could barely see. the race will now effectively start from stage two today. onto football, and england lionesses play portugal today in milton keynes, before flying out to australia next week for the world cup. england will also take on canada behind closed doors before their tournament starts onjuly 22nd against haiti. two warm—up games not really enough according to the manager sarina weigman, she would have liked more. meanwhile, georgia stanway is set to win her 50th cap for her country, and hopes the side can continue to inspire the next generation. we need some time to connect with ourfamilies back home, the time they wake up might be the time that we get some free time on our schedule so that we have the opportunity to connect with fans and family and just being able to inspire the nation back at home, but

be aware that we are inspiring the nation, rather than feeling that we are in our own bubble, we want to be able to make those connections. reigning formula one champion max verstappen will start tomorrow's austrian grand prix on pole position. it's the red bull driver's fourth successive pole. the ferraris of charles le clerc and carlos sainz were second and third fastest respectively in qualifying. lewis hamilton's mercedes, was fifth quickest. anyone who has a shocking start to their round of golf this weekend, take inspiration from this man. justin rose has kept his lead, heading into today's third round at the british masters — but only just! the englishman had a terrible opening to his round yesterday, but managed to recover well to finish on six under par overall. that gives a share of the lead with france's antoine rozner. players from the pacific islands

are having a massive impact in rugby league, helping the promoted leigh leopards jump up to second in the super league. one playerfrom papua new guinea, was one of the architects, creating the chance forjosh charnley as leigh thrashed hull kr 34-4. they scored six tries in total. elsewhere there were also wins for wigan, st helens, and bottom side wakefield. tennis player ryan peniston says he wants to inspire others, suffering with cancer when he takes to the court at wimbledon next week. peniston was diagnosed with a soft tissue cancer, when he was just a year old. he went through repeated chemotherapy and surgery, with the treatment stunting his growth as a child. peniston is ranked 267 in the world and will play andy murray, in the first round. before the draw was made, he told our sports reporterjames burridge that his cancer fight has given him a different perspective on the sport.

inspiring story, isn't it? firm to even doubt that he is inspiring, i hope he... put something into perspective. it has given him this different approach, this different perspective on the spot. absolutely. thank you, mike. —— on the sport. peace in the countryside — something to be cherished — butjetskis and speedboats have been disrupting the tranquility along some of our riverbanks. on the river hull, despite a 6 mph speed limit, residents say that rules are being ignored, and want those who are breaking them to go elsewhere. crispin rolfe has the story. how rivers should be, and the sometimes harsh reality. yes, jet skis are a problem — even on the river hull — as this incident, seen by those living alongside

the river, clearly shows. couldn't believe how fast they were going. you just saw the end of it, really. as a guy sort of clatters into the scaffolding, which is just a bit further down. although everybody walked away from that incident, it's the sort of behaviour that other river users want to see stop. it's really the last couple of years it has become a far more prevalent issue, with irresponsible people in power boats and jet skis, especially, travelling fast up the river, which is too narrow, it's got too many river users, there's too much wildlife that they're destroying the habitat of. with the river's speed limit being six miles an hour, dave rawding from the kingston kayak club would like to see jetskiers behave more responsibly, and preferably find somewhere else to zoom up and down. you think this is where a lot of the jet skiers are getting in the river hull? absolutely, when we are doing our social nights here, we often see jet skis getting on, powerboats getting on. as i said earlier, some use the river responsibly.

others don't, unfortunately. of course, there are other alternatives. chris butterfield runs the fosshilljet ski park at bransburton, and is equally shocked by the antics on the river hull. i mean, chris, what do you make of this? it is somebody who doesn't really know what they are doing, by the looks of it. if you let the power up on the jet ski, the throttle, you lose all your steering. there's a few places in the area you can gojet skiing. there's here, fosshill, just make sure everything is safe. when you go at these sorts of speeds at a jet ski park like this one, there is no problem. but the government has had such an issue on waterways that it has toughened the rules, and says those flouting them could face two years in prison or unlimited fines. this section of the river hull at tigton near beverly has other safety issues too, that the environment agency says it is working to improve things. the question remains,

who is going to police jet skiers to ensure they stick to a six mile an hour limit on our waterways? crispin rolfe, bbc news. here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. a gentle start to the day for this dog, just taking a little break on the walkies. gorgeous wildflowers out there as well. we have the grey sky overhead, but i think through the day that will break up and we will see some sunshine developing. so many of us starting the day a little bit like this, a slow start to the day, clad around, but as we see holes in that cloud in the sunshine breaking through, things will warm up and some showers will develop as well. lastly showers today, particularly across the northern half of the uk, whereas further south, longer spells of sunshine in store, both today and tomorrow as well. but a lot of clad

through yesterday and overnight, now starting to clear off towards the east, so only satellite image, you can see those clear skies and the atlantic heading our way, also reporting some showers. over the past he has, like and patchy drizzle, a lot of love cloud around, heavy rain across the north of scotland, but moving through the rest of the morning, more sunshine developing a special in the south and east, for the cells to come across parts of the pennines, northern ireland and scotland, and heavy rain at linking up towards the northern isles as well. baxter towards parts of southern england and wales, like to avoid the vast majority of those showers, so 22, 23 sources for the warmest spot, typically looking at the high teens further north this afternoon, and of course the ashes continue at lord's. when a lot of clad land, some splashes of drizzle already, but tended to fade away, you will notice a westerly breeze wherever you are, the strongest of the winds across

the strongest of the winds across the north of scotland where we have heavy rain. into the evening hours, looking dry for most of us, show�*s is another note, but continued across parts of scotland and northern ireland. and we still have more persistent rain on the far north. a fresher note than last night, sunday we have low pressure that sets out towards the north—east, the winds rotating around the low pressure driving and that fresher atlantic air, but also bringing more showers as well, and a bit like today, the bulk of the showers to will be for scotland, northern ireland, parts of northern england, when asked further south you are more likely to stay dry some longer spells of sunshine. temperatures north to south and ia temperatures north to south and 1a to 22 sources. sarah, thanks so much. enjoy the rest of your weekend. —— much. enjoy the rest of your weekend. "14 much. enjoy the rest of your weekend. —— 1a to 22 celsius.

as repairjobs go, this one's unique. an old coal barge has been given a new lease of life — and new cargo — after being transformed the historic importance of boat has into a floating book shop. now the historic importance of boat has been recognised with a flagship award, as our reporter cathy killick has been finding out. surrounded on all sides by gleaming steel and glass, a poignant reminder of west yorkshire's industrial past. marjorie r was built in 1916 invitingly to carry coal. now she harbours a different cargo, in a new life as a floating book shop. had the boat for about ten years, restored it from a rusty shell, really, and we wanted to find something to do with it that would keep it safe for the future. it is such a lovely old boat. poor old marjorie had almost sunk, and had survived a fire before she was rescued. she's been kitted out with scavenged

bits and bobs which perfectly suited her somewhat weathered character. she was a rusty old wreck, really. she was floating, just. but you need a lot of... like, if she was a pair ofjeans, she would have a lot of patches, put it that way. i like to use recycled materials. it's obviously better for the environment, and cheaper, and just sort of makes sense. so i needed to build a trade to be sunflower seats, and as you can see, all the different colours here, they come from the building over there, so i didn't have to bring them far. yeah, the job's a good one. there used to be dozens of barges like marjorie transporting coal from the power station, but in the 1980s the trade dwindled and the barges disappeared. she is a rare survivor, and her unique history has now been recognised with a flagship award from national historic ships. the marjorie r is in very select company, getting a flagship award.

other ships honoured include a fishing vessel from shetland, a welsh lifeboat, a steamer from the lake district, and a former lightship. all reminders of britain's incredible shipbuilding past. as well as books, the shop also sells plants, individually named by chris. a quirkiness in keeping with this floating oasis, unexpected and welcome in the heart of leeds dock. cathy killick, bbc news. summer's now in full swing, which means it's blockbuster season for movie fans, and this month cinemagoers will be spoilt for choice. between the new mission: impossible, harrison ford's last outing as indiana jones, and the big barbie and oppenheimer showdown, we've not had a summer on the big screens like this since before the pandemic. let's take a quick look at what's in store.
