to lift the trophy. patrick geary has more. this isn't the team spain thought would represent them at the world cup. last september, 15 players rebelled against the manager, only three are in the squad. any chaos behind the curtain wasn't apparent on the stage, spain outclassed costa rica, inducing their defender into an accident. one of the surviving rebels also happens to be one of the best players in the world. that is why, and that is two, two minutes later. spain had 80% of the ball but did all the damage in six minutes. the game was locked by gonz lez. from wellington to melbourne where they were checking for a canada penalty. it was given, the score was 0—0, christine sinclair trying to become the first player to score in six world cups. the nigerian goalkeeper

stopped history and perhaps more importantly, a canadian victory. a match of huge significance for the philippines. their world cup debut, a big moment betrayed by a slight touch, costing them a penalty against switzerland. once she scored, the swiss took control and added a second. victory in one of the world's southernmost towns, and things for the swiss are looking up. england's lionesses begin their quest to win a first world cup tomorrow against haiti in brisbane. the squad's missing some key names through injury, including leah williamson and beth mead, but has been boosted by confirmation today captain millie bright is fit after fully recovering from a knee injury. she's not played competitive football since march — but says there was never any doubt

she'd be ready for the opening game. ido i do everything i can for the team and to put myself in the best position, so i knew i would take the boxes in terms of recovery. you mentioned players not being here, but injuries are part of football and are we to look forward. we've got an amazing group of players and staff and everyone has stepped up and we are raring to go. over to the ashes where australia are now in bat for their second innings after a strong england display saw them all out for 592. johnny bairstow hit 99 as ben stokes�* side did their best to rack up the runs before weather threatens to disrupt proceedings at old trafford over the weekend. this is how it stands currently then — usman khawaja's gone for 18 —

australia 46—1— they trail by 229. a very interesting weekend awaits at old trafford then — and no doubt at hoylake too where round two of the open is under way. the usa's brian harman tops the leaderboard — by some distance currently — that thanks to a blistering start where he birdied four of the first five holes — and capped off a flawless round of 65 with an eagle on the 18th to finish on io—under. tommy fleetwood who was amongst the overnight leaders after day one is halfway through his second round on five under — rory mcilroy has a mountain to climb if he's to end his nine—year major drought, he's finished for the day and stands at one under par. for more on these and other sports stories, you can go to our app or website. that's bbc.com.sport. including coverage from stage 19 of the tour de france, which has just been won by slovenia's mattay mohoric. yonas vingergaur has all but clinched the yellow

in the uxbridge constituency. there seems little doubt that a controversial vehicle emissions policy introduced by the labour mayor of london sadiq khan cost his party votes. that policy is to expand the capital's ultra low emission zone — which applies charges to older or more polluting vehicles. the proposed expansion would take in outer london — which includes uxbridge. so is it the case, that people are less likely to support policies aimed at achieving net zero emissions if they will cost them money in the short term? the polling firm ipsos did some research on this. it found that 62% of people supported subsidies for electric vehicles. but this dropped to 34% when they were told they would have to pay more to drive their diesel or electric car. another key net—zero policy — the phasing out of gas powered boilers — was also supported by 62% of the public. but this fell to 32% when people were told they would have to pay more for an alternative system.

i've been speaking to gideon skinner, head of political research at ipsos. he says many voters see green lifestyle choices as a costly option they can ill afford. the public is starting off from a point of in general being very concerned about the environment. broadly, overall, thinking that the costs of not doing anything are going to outweigh the costs of individual actions and generally having support in principle for a number of the policies. but the trouble is, particularly at the moment in terms of concern about cost of living, there is a general perception that green lifestyle choices tend to be more expensive and around half the public tell us that although they'd like to take action to reduce climate change, they can't afford to do so. and then, as you said, matthew, you can see that playing out in support for individual policies where support in principle might be high. but once we ask people to consider

maybe the personal impact and that can be important on something like ltn, where people are worried aboutjourney times being longer. so the personal costs or most obviously the financial costs, if it leads to increase taxes, say, or increased costs that people now, i think i'm right in saying that your research was principally done before the real cost of living crisis kicked in. so do we assume that that tension you're talking about is even more enhanced now? yeah. so you do still see that. and as you say, we could have probably seen a bit of an example of that in the by elections recently. but even more recently we've seen that general pattern continues. so we've seen that, for example, britons are generally more likely to support policies that involve either discounts or financial incentives than they are to support policies that reduce choice or specifically the increased tax.

and people are really split at the moment about whether they would be willing to pay more tax to to pay for sort of greener changes. yeah, that's interesting because we have the same sort of debates in france and in germany where similar environmental ideas have been brought in and similar criticisms have been made. but if that is all the backdrop, how do to politicians frame trying to sell those policies that we all know that we have to do? yes, and it's probably isn't easy. i mean, and the financial aspects are still clearly important. and of course there are some green behaviours right now that will save money which is, which is, which is a sell an important thing for people right now. but you probably need to start off with being open and transparent with the public about some of the potential costs, providing financial support, but bringing the public along with you, having dialogue with the public about some of these policies

and how they might be brought in. but you can also talk more broadly, for example, if you talk about the wider co—benefits of some of these policies. so for example, something like elton's arguments that they will increase safety or increase health can bejust as important to people as the impact on climate change, the environmental benefits, if not more so. so there's a range of different things you can do to try to bring the public along with you. but it won't be easy. tributes have been paid to the legendary american singer tony bennett who has died at the age of 96. tony bennett grew up in new york — and released his first album in 1952 when he was in his mid—20s. he picked up his first grammy for his classic 1962 song, i left my heart in san francisco. a short time ago i spoke to leo green. he is a saxophonist and former radio dj.

there is the musical legacy, he was the last guy standing in the saloon of the great singers who represented and defined the great american song book. all those songs written by cole porter, that whole school. in terms of his legacy, what he and frank sinatra and ella fitzgerald, they defined notjust a musical genre, but those songs and how they were meant to be heard. people like gershwin said until artists like tony bennett recorded their songs, they were never aware or appreciated themselves how good those songs were. tony bennett always said he didn't want to have a hit record, he wanted a hit catalogue. the legacy he has created and left us, we will never see it again. the albums represent a golden period of music which will never be surpassed. in terms of his musical legacy, because

he had come up at a time when there was sinatra, nat king cole, to come up when all those people were at the top of their game and establish his own voice is quite astonishing. he was influenced at the start by the early singers like aljohnson, and sinatra, but he took the rhythmic approach of the piano player and combined it with the sweet saxophone tones, and putting them together, he created this incredible sound which no one else had at the time. you talk about the catalogue, 70 albums across the career, 20 grammy awards. he always credits your father for actually giving him his career in the uk. tell me that story. my father was broadcasting on the bbc at the time, and there wasn't a lot of non—mainstream music, really, being played.

my father was a musician so he recognised a great voice when he heard it, but the musicians bennett surrounded himself with were the greatest of the great jazz musicians. there were so many singers copying sinatra, but bennett had his own sound and no one was playing him over here. my father played him and his profile grew. from that came this extraordinary friendship. i can remember sat at the table as a kid listening to tony and my father talking about music, art and politics and everything in between. he was a magnificent flag—waver for equality, he fought antiracism. he suffered in the american army. i remember so many nightsjust listening and trying to soak up all this wise wisdom of these two old guys. when my father died, he accompanied my mother at the funeral

and was the most gracious, gorgeous definition of a gentleman. he said to me, if you need anything, here is and was the most gracious, gorgeous definition of a gentleman. he said to me, if you need anything, here is my phone number. i called him when i was in new york and when i began concerts here. he was always charming. he was always a fan of music, but new artists. and on that point, briefly because we are running out of time, across that vastness of his career, that delight in new music, it meant, and we know the album he recorded with lady gaga, and it was so spectacular. you mention it was the end of his career, it was essentially the end of his life. the very last song

he performed on stage was of course i left my heart in san francisco, and we will never see the like again. tony bennett, who has died at the age of 96. already many tributes — having been coming in.

and fron nile rogers, of chic and daft punk fame:�*my most heartfelt condolences go out to tony bennett's family and friends. they're also my emotional family and friends' more tributes in the next hour. macdonald has looked into allegations of abuse by staff. the unit will run until this year. the bbc investigation found workers had experienced a toxic culture of sexual assault, harassment, experienced a toxic culture of sexualassault, harassment, racism and bullying from colleagues. our business reporter told us more. we've had a strong statement from the chief executive of mcdonald's uk

and ireland, this is a response to a story we broke this week, a bbc investigation by myself and colleagues in which we spoke to more than 100 workers at mcdonald's across the uk who are alleging a toxic workplace culture of sexual assault, racism and bullying. he said today the allegations were shocking anti apologise unreservedly to anyone who was affected. he said they are taking action on three fronts, launching new investigations unit. before they had a complaints hotline, and now they are raising their game and launching the new unit which will have oversight on all cases. the most use cases will be referred on to a third party legal team. the second is about escalating complaints. they are appointing external people on this. we found many workers who said when

they raise complaints, they were ignored or they weren't passed on. the last thing is ensuring a speaking of culture so people feel they can come forward. will it work? it remains to be seen, add a lot of the workers we spoke to felt the trust had broken down. they were calling up the numbers on posters to report complaints are not getting a response. and e—mails would be forwarded on to managers. it will be seen whether it has the desired effect. weight search teams are looking for people in india with people digging into a. officials say the landslide buried 17 of the 15 houses in the village. amsterdam has banned cruise ships from the city centre.

it's part of the dutch capital's latest attempts to limit visitor numbers and curb pollution. the city council said the ships weren't in line with its sustainable ambitions. courtney bembridge has more details. when many people think of amsterdam, they might imagine scenes like this, but all too often, it actually looks a bit more like this. and the city council is trying to crack down on mass tourism in a number of ways, cruise ships being the latest of those measures. there are 100 cruise ships in amsterdam every year, averaging out to two per week. the council says not any more. this is where they docked,in not any more. this is where they docked, in the centre of amsterdam. this is causing problems, the council says. amsterdam has become a victim of its own success. it is estimated 20 million people visit the city every year, attracted in part by its reputation as a party city. the council has tried to crack

down on it, banning the smoking of cannabis in a red light district and this year it released an advert aimed at young british men. let's look at what it suggested. it was telling people wanting to come for a messy night to stay away. that is one aspect of this, that the council doesn't want this type of tourism, but crew ships is another type of tourism they've said they don't want. one dutch politician described cruise tourists as a plague of locusts descending on the city all at once. not everyone is using such strong language but there are concerns about the type of tourism it brings, people who come for a short period, down to the cultural activities like museums and then leave again. there are also concerns about the environmental impact of this type of tourism, and this study from 2021 suggests one cruise ship

has the same level of emissions as 30,000 trucks. two aspects of this, both the social and also the environmental impact. i am back with headlines in a moment after the weather. hello. don't expect it to look or feel much like summer. this weekends the weather is looking decidedly unsettled. it will feel rather cool. it will often be windy and there will be some outbreaks of rain at times. how much rain? well, this chart shows how much we're expecting to accumulate over the next few days. the wettest places are likely to be across northern ireland, parts of wales and perhaps most especially across the north of england, but most places getting at least a dose of wet weather thanks to this frontal system pushing its way in from the west. quite a complex frontal system. there will be various pulses of heavy rain running along it as it slides its way eastwards. moving its way into the picture. certainly as we go on through tonight will stay mostly dry, i think down towards the south east of england and also in the north of scotland.

and here with clear skies overhead, it is actually going to get quite chilly like the last few nights. temperatures in some spots down to three orfour degrees, but milder further south, underneath the influence of the areas of cloud, the outbreaks of rain with this wriggling frontal system continuing to move its way through. so a really soggy saturday in prospect across parts of northern ireland. northern england looking very, very wet indeed. that rain getting up into southern and maybe central parts of scotland, wales, the south west of england, towards the south east corner. rain not arriving until quite late in the day, but for southern areas it will turn quite windy. in fact, for southern and western coast we could see gusts of 40 to maybe 50 miles per hour in the most exposed spots, temperatures just 15 to 19 degrees. northern scotland always seeing the best of the brightness, albeit with one or two showers saturday evening. well, a bit of a wash—out for many, staying driest once again in the north of scotland. and as we move on into sunday, well, this area of low pressure just continues to track its way eastwards. now, this frontal system will tend to clear away, but this one

here is set to hang back on sunday. so across parts of southern scotland, northern ireland, north wales and north midlands, but most especially northern england, it looks like we will see rain continuing to pile up elsewhere. sunny spells and scattered showers and temperatures between 16 and 22 degrees. so many places a little below par at this point injuly and no big change into next week. more rain at times, some drier interludes. yes, and it will stay fairly cool.
