headline stories because preaching in the last little while, the news that uk treasury has announced the uk banks will be subject to stricter rules over closing customers accounts under changes designed to protect freedom of expression that comes out of the story making headlines yesterday with nigel frosh who had obtained documents which showed from minutes of the meeting that his account is being closed for commercial reputation risk reasons associated with the political views. those were cited as reasons behind terminating his account and he had originally made that claim and had obtained these documents a few weeks afterwards and that getting the response of the uk prime minister rishi sunak who said that was wrong and that somebody�*s account could be closed because of their political

views and are moving from the treasury that uk banks will be subject to stricter rules over closing customers accounts and those changes have been really clear about that and they are designed to protect the freedom of expression and just as i'm reading that last sentence, the british bank has apologised to the former brexit party leader for the handling of apologised to the former brexit party leaderfor the handling of the closure of his accounts with its private banking arm and there it is in small print and we'll get that on the websites you can see it a bit more clearly next couple of minutes and an apology from the bank in the letter from the ceo comes after nigel frosh complained publicly about his treatment in the bank and cling to services are being cut over his political views. that is coming

million 2 billion people would watch crammed in the eden park. the celebrations were paused for a minute before kick—off, due to the shooting before the match. they had never seen this side when a world cup game in the football conference and spent nine weeks in a training camp working on the thickness and tactics and it paid off in the second half. norway were world champions in 1995 but struggled to keep new zealand today and they only managed two shots on target and the case initially looked like a miss but there was initial contact. as you would expect, va art is in use and unsurprisingly it was needed but this was new —— var.

cocaptain could've made the ten minutes of time added on more comfortable. but in the end, one goal was enough to give new zealand and theirfans a memorable night. i still have goose bumps and emotions in me we waited for this moment for such a long time and to opportunity to have strong opportunities in here are fans behind us, that isjust unforgettable moment. mil are fans behind us, that is “ust unforgettable momentfi are fans behind us, that is “ust unforgettable moment. all of the emotions of _ unforgettable moment. all of the emotions of the _ unforgettable moment. all of the emotions of the eden _ unforgettable moment. all of the emotions of the eden park - unforgettable moment. all of the emotions of the eden park and i unforgettable moment. all of the i emotions of the eden park and eyes turned to sydney were austria got determined under way against the republic of ireland became the first ever appearance of the women's world cup and despite having to make do with their captain or the biggest names in women's football, they ruled out with the calf injury. from

start to spectator, this is not i would was supposed to be first sam at her world cup. her injury was a boost for the art of inside making its bow on the biggest stage. her absence did little to dampen the enthusiasm of the capacity crowd but without their talisman, they struggled from inspiration earlier on. said pieces so australia likely to go with the first half as they headed wide. but ireland showed no signs of cracking in the host began to resort to more desperate measures. 0—0 at the break. this five minutes after the restart and ireland finally buckled. and incurs taking responsibility for the matilda's. it will make she kept her cool head and she had to stop by

clear clear mind to be required and the decree chances but lost her composure when it mattered most. if she was feeling nervous on the side in silent begin to threaten, it did not show although this free kick point closer than she would've liked and being kept increasingly busy in the matilda's goal. of the spoils with the way of australia, cheers and a host on opening day while irish eyes are crying out in emotionally charged night in sydney. hard to put into words, it's been such a big lead up we had a lot of adrenaline coming into this game and at times, moments were working through that knows sloppy up a little bit overzealous. we had come in the end, which are the result and

we did when we needed to do. three matches taking _ we did when we needed to do. three matches taking off _ we did when we needed to do. three matches taking off against _ we did when we needed to do. three matches taking off against the olympic champions canada and group b in the early hours for the bbc sport website and app is placed realm of the latest from a women's world cup, the latest from a women's world cup, the ashes, the opening of the other sports news but for me and the team here, it is goodbye for now. absolute feast of sport today because of the golf open and brought the cricket and the 2—1 lead in england have to win in england really impressive 345—3 at old trafford, 347, iam really impressive 345—3 at old trafford, 347, i am told, just nudging up but getting 100 we are really setting out as the book to

is calling on supermarkets to make the pressing systems clearer to help shoppers find the best deals but they said they have not found evidence that the competition between the stores as fuelled inflation. shoppers want to see essentially their food bills will be cheaper and i don't think today's report is going to be an average basket and never charlie is going to be cheaper but it should in theory mean that things will be a little bit clearer in the competition has been looking at the two things, one, or supermarkets protecting profits rather than passing on lower wholesale costs to extend store and they found no evidence of this. more interesting was on unit prices and on this, the regulator said not all retailers explain prices as clearly as they should which could be hampering peoples abilities to compare product prices, they found that in some stores, they were

labelled per tea bag which made it hard to work out which product offer the best value. written to retailers to make changes with this enforcement action by also want changes to the law which could take longer. the government says it's going to consult on those changes in the regulator says they're going to look elsewhere and supply chains to see if there could be other problems which mean profits are being contained in parts of the supply chain and being passed on to us. a new study shows that for all of those in the uk can be a lot of meat, cut down, there could be a large reduction in carbon dioxide levels equivalent to taking 8 million cars off the road. signed to submit the most reliable calculation so far about the impact of different diets. this progress have beef, have

barbie... as for oppenheimer... just some of the reviews in his spoke to bbc radio 1 and asked what they thought because they had seen both films stop a firm fan of both but they couldn't be more different.

barbie is fun and full of life in colour and vibrancy and the cast is exceptional. so funny that is aiming for a teenage market and oppenheimer is definitely a mcgann order crowd, one for the eye maximum for the big screen without the surround sound trainings and their excellent different ways, just make sure that if you're doing the double bill, you decide carefully how you're watching them, whether the first one or the other way around. ed is comparing apples and pears is totally different types and fields of movies and content and every element of the production in terms of your best guess of audiences will respond, which of two do you think is likely to get more traffic? i which of two do you think is likely to get more traffic?— to get more traffic? i would say 'ust to get more traffic? i would say just impure _ to get more traffic? i would say just impure broad _ to get more traffic? i would say just impure broad appeal, - to get more traffic? i would say. just impure broad appeal, barbie

will be the winner because the marketing has been on another level, we have seen tie—ins from shoe companies, back companies, if god caps with ken on the side, all—consuming hype bubble around barbie was christopher nolan's oppenheimer is more of a reserved motion picture that is aiming for an oscar type vibe. i think the space for both of them but ultimately, barbie will be in box of the swinger. barbie will be in box of the swinuer. �* ., barbie will be in box of the swinuer. i, ., barbie will be in box of the swinger-— barbie will be in box of the swinuer. i, ., , ., barbie will be in box of the swinuer. ., , ., ., swinger. both of them up to do well because the budgets _ swinger. both of them up to do well because the budgets are _ swinger. both of them up to do well because the budgets are absolutely| because the budgets are absolutely massive and looking at some of the figures earlier, barbie, just production costs in terms of some of the marketing for the production costs are hundred $45 million. i think it's around 100 million for oppenheimer. these movies are not cheap to make time and cost a lot, production design is exceptional on both in very different tones and colours but these movies take a lot

of money and a lot of time and a lot of money and a lot of time and a lot of effort even the script writing a number of taken a significant amount of time. not cheap but it will say this, the money is on the screen for both and sometimes you can watch a movie if feel a bit short change, neither of these have that feeling. that's about it for me and if we see what at the same time tomorrow and now, it's time for the six o'clock news. hello. whilst much of southern europe is still feeling the effect of that intense ongoing heatwave, here in the uk, no sign of any heat in the forecast because things are staying rather cool and unsettled. the next few days bring a few scattered showers but through the weekend it's going to turn increasingly wet and windy for all of us at times. this is the expected rainfall accumulation we are going to see by the time we get to the end of monday, 50—70 millimetres for some areas, so it's going to turn quite soggy particularly through the weekend. back to the here and now and as we head through into the evening, just a few showers around that

should mainly fade away, but this zone across parts of central and southern scotland and northern ireland will remain cloudier with a few splashes of rain. now, either side of that there's clearer skies so we are likely to see temperatures getting down into single figures in quite a few places. a fairly fresh start to your friday morning, but some sunshine from the word go away from parts of northern england and northern ireland, where we start off with the cloud and a few light showers. through the day, as things warm up, sunny spells and scattered showers will tend to bubble up. they will be most frequent for eastern scotland, northern and eastern england as well. further south and west you're more likely to stay dry. a bit of patchy rain at times for northern ireland and temperatures not great, 14—21 degrees, a little below par for this stage injuly. of course, two big sporting fixtures in the north—west of england, the ashes and the golf as well. both of these events could see the chance of a passing shower

but it's certainly not going to be a wash—out on friday. overnight into saturday, that's when the cloud thickens, the rain starts to move in from the atlantic, so a milder night for many of us. clearer skies holding on into saturday morning across the north of scotland. but the wind and rain is courtesy of this area of low pressure. it drifts in from the atlantic and spreads its way eastwards through the course of the day. so initially some rain for parts of northern ireland, perhaps wales, northern england too. gales developing down towards the south—west. it will turn windy across all of england and wales in particular. that rain presses its way eastwards gradually through the course of the day. just north of scotland i think getting away with some drier, sunnier weather, but temperatures only 15—19. feeling cooler when you add on the wind and the rain as well. moving through the second half of the weekend into sunday. low pressure just drifts off towards the east but we still have the tail end of that frontal system, so more showers around for many of us at times on sunday, and it stays unsettled with some

sunshine and a scattering of showers into monday too. bye— bye.

england's hospital consultants go on strike for the first time in more than a decade. empty operating theatres as the 48—hour strike causes severe disruption with most routine operations cancelled. if we want to have an nhs which is a world leading health service, we need to keep the doctors here and at the moment, they're leaving. the government said it 6% offer was final and urge them to think of the patients. the boss of one of britain's biggest banks
