7:33 pm
1 billion people living in india, but we have seen and heard of similar cases in the past. the chief minister has said there are hundreds of such cases, we can't make a hype about each and every one of them. this is not one of those cases reported every day. i work with the foundation and these cases come to us every day and as a society we have become immune. something different. there's no comparison of two cases. you can't sell your use to it and learn to live with it and it be normal. these are the responses we get from the government that make things more frustrated and outraged. nojustification is enough. i'm sure you have seen the video. it's so disturbing. nobody could sleep after watching the
7:34 pm
video. i'm sure, especially the women web seen it, it is beyond comparison and these are the responses we get. this is the time we know the government are just making a comment as if nothing has happened. it is something. it's the history that is been made in a wrong sense. . ., ., , , , sense. have the authorities set up some kind of _ sense. have the authorities set up some kind of investigative - sense. have the authorities set up some kind of investigative inquiry| some kind of investigative inquiry or committed to look into it it given the anger and outrage? bitter given the anger and outrage? after seeinu the given the anger and outrage? after seeing the review, _ given the anger and outrage? after seeing the review, -- _ given the anger and outrage? tie? seeing the review, —— video, the prime ministers spoke about it and she willjustice spoke as well but at the same time no pan am has been set up to get into the debt of it.
7:35 pm
we have seen through the viral videos not being covered as much by the media, our only hope is that their investigation into it and we want to know the real story. we are dying to know the real numbers. space click on the iceberg. i'm sure the chief minister has said there are many more cases. we want to know how many within women have suffered and are still suffering so we can protect them. that is my only apprehension and appeal to the government. i apprehension and appeal to the government-— apprehension and appeal to the covernment. , ., government. i suppose part of the issue is the _ government. i suppose part of the issue is the misinformation - government. i suppose part of the issue is the misinformation and i issue is the misinformation and disinformation around the cases and difficult to get the exact effects from our part without fully understanding and having the information sub that's all the more reason we want a fear investigation

7:38 pm
woman's football has been a round for a long time but it is nowjust more accessible. it's credit to all of the players that have come and gone over the last decades that have fought for that representation or that visibility and maybe didn't get their due when they were plain. i think bit by bit there has been eight scraping together of digits is a messy, validity, and respect. every step forward and that is also match with better partnership deals, because you need visibility to get the money and that is the circle of people forget about sometimes when complainant about the standards and the provisions that are in place for players. the provisions that are in place for -la ers. �* , ., ., players. are we seeing that now because of— players. are we seeing that now because of the _ players. are we seeing that now because of the visibility, - players. are we seeing that now because of the visibility, like - players. are we seeing that now| because of the visibility, like you say, it's a circle or cycle, it leads to more money, more investment being pumped into a woman's

7:57 pm
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 a0 to maybe 50 mph in the most exposed spots. temperatures just 15—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—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.
