at the women's world cup final. the kremlin says accusations that moscow gave the order to kill the wagner group leader — yevgeny prigozhin — are an "absolute lie". after his arrest in georgia donald trump becomes the first former us president to have his mugshot taken. he insists he's done nothing wrong. what they're doing is election interference, they are trying to interfere with an election. there's never been anything like it in our country before. this is their way of campaigning. energy bills in england, scotland and wales are to fall from october — under a new price cap.

welcome to bbc news now. we start in spain, where within the last hour, the head of the country's football federation has said he will not resign. luis rubiales has faced sharp criticism over his unsolicited kiss on the mouth ofjennifer hermoso, a player with the women's national team. it happened in the moments following spain's victory in the women's world cup. but mr rubiales showed no sign of backing down when he spoke a short while ago: translation: is not so serious that i have to leave. _ translation: is not so serious that i have to leave, while _ translation: is not so serious that i have to leave, while having - translation: is not so serious that i have to leave, while having done i i have to leave, while having done the bestjob for spanish i have to leave, while having done the best job for spanish football? do you really believe that i have to resign. i am going to tell you something. i am resign. i am going to tell you something. iam not resign. i am going to tell you something. i am not going to resign. i will not resign. i will not resign. i will not resign. i will not resign. in resign. iwill not resign. iwill not resign-—

what is the latest? the reaction, i guess what we want to hear, to the fact that luis rubiales has said a number of times, that he won't resign because you think the main reaction is one of amazement. it was so widely reported from last night into this morning, that mr rubiales was going to resign. the feeling was that the pressure on him was unbearable, that his position is president was untenable now, especially after fifa opened disciplinary proceedings against him yesterday. the disciplinary proceedings against him esterda . . , , , ., disciplinary proceedings against him esterda . . ,, , ., disciplinary proceedings against him esterda . , ., ., yesterday. the assumption was that he was going _ yesterday. the assumption was that he was going to _ yesterday. the assumption was that he was going to resign, _ yesterday. the assumption was that he was going to resign, as - yesterday. the assumption was that he was going to resign, as simple . yesterday. the assumption was that| he was going to resign, as simple as that. the fact that he has taken this very defiant stance today has stunned people. we don't have reactions yet from the politicians, for example, who had been calling for example, who had been calling for sanctions against him, orfor him to be removed from office. i think they will be amazed at this. i think they will be amazed at this. i think there is a feeling that this crisis that has opened up at the top of spanish football has some way to 90,

of spanish football has some way to go, that this issue hasn't been resolved buy to simply saying he is not going. this turmoil is going to continue for some time yet. he has said that this _ continue for some time yet. he has said that this is, _ continue for some time yet. he has said that this is, in _ continue for some time yet. he has said that this is, in his _ continue for some time yet. he has said that this is, in his words, - continue for some time yet. he has said that this is, in his words, a - said that this is, in his words, a social assassination. looking to spanish society in general, what is the mood towards him? what are people saying? are they supportive of him, or are they not? i people saying? are they supportive of him, or are they not?— of him, or are they not? i think most peeple — of him, or are they not? i think most people who _ of him, or are they not? i think most people who have - of him, or are they not? i think most people who have spoken | of him, or are they not? i think i most people who have spoken out about this have been extremely critical of him, whether they are politicians, female football players, some male football players have spoken out as well, condemning him, coaches as well. feminist groups in particular and many others, pretty much everyone who has spoken out, has spoken out to criticise mr rubiales and say that what he did was wrong. you have to remember that all this comes against a backdrop of one spain has been discussing, very intensely, these issues surrounding gender equality

and sexual consent. a controversial new law was introduced regarding sexual consent, just a few months ago, here in spain. it has been very much a focus of this left—wing government. these are issues which are being talked about very intensely in the political sphere. i think this current crisis regarding mr rubiales is feeding into all of that. the fact that he won't resign and is defending his position, saying that kiss was consensual, i think that is probably going to inflame this particular debate even further. i'm sure he will face a lot more criticism. what we have to find out is whether he does indeed have the kind of support that he seemed to be insisting he does have, behind—the—scenes. to be insisting he does have, behind-the-scenes.- to be insisting he does have, behind-the-scenes. thank you very much, in madrid _ behind-the-scenes. thank you very much, in madrid for _ behind-the-scenes. thank you very much, in madrid for us. _ behind-the-scenes. thank you very much, in madrid for us. more - behind-the-scenes. thank you very much, in madrid for us. more on i behind-the-scenes. thank you very l much, in madrid for us. more on that story throughout the day here on the bbc. energy prices in england, wales and scotland are set to fall. the price cap for bills — that's the cost per unit of energy —

for millions of households, is set by the regulator, ofgem. the new — lower — price cap will apply from from october — though bills will still be higher than in the winter of 2021. so let's take a closer look at some of those figures. a typical household currently pays £2,074 a year on its gas and electricity bill. according to the regulator ofgem — that will fall to £1,923 between october and december. in the united states, according to official statistics, the average household pays around $2,300 a year. that's more than $50 less than in england, scotland and wales — although the price fluctuates on a state—by—state basis. the chief executive of the energy regulater ofgem, jonathan brearley, explained why the price cap is coming down. what we do as a regulator is we look at the costs that the energy companies need to spend to get the energy their customers need. and we make sure through our formulae that that is reasonably

reflected in the prices that they pay. and so, in essence, the price cap is a maximum the companies can charge to make sure that they're not charging unfair prices over and above that. now, what we're announcing today is a £150 drop in that cap. now, right now, that applies to most households and of course, for everyone that will be welcome relief and this is a step in the right direction. but we all need to recognise that although that cap has come down, this is still much higher than prices pre—2021 when the gas crisis hit. and that is simply because we have a much tighter international market. the price of gas and the price of electricity are still much higher than they used to be. and unfortunately that is reflected in our bills. that is the situation in england, wales and scotland. we've been hearing from simone tagliapietra — professor of eu climate and energy policy at the bruegel research organisation. he gave us his assessment

of the energy market in europe and beyond. last year, europe has gone through a perfect storm when it comes to energy markets, and this year the situation is certainly much better. the market for gas internationally remains certainly tight, but the worst has gone. and indeed, the wholesale gas price today is seven times lower than it used to be at this point in time last summer in europe. however, market remains tight and volatility is part of what we can define as a new normal. so the gas price, the electricity price, is going to be for quite some time higher than we used to see before the energy crisis. and volatility is going to be part of this new normal because whatever happens, for example, as it wasjust mentioned in australia, can have impacts directly on the european gas balance as well. so we need to get used to this new situation, try to foster

green alternatives to decouple from fossil fuels as much, as quickly, as possible and try to accelerate a green transition as a result of all of this, because that's also good for energy prices in the long—term. our work and money correspondent— marc ashdown is with me. talk us through this price cap. how's it going to affect people? when ofgem set this cap they said they would do it every six months. then they started doing it every three months instead.— then they started doing it every three months instead. from october it will come — three months instead. from october it will come down _ three months instead. from october it will come down to _ three months instead. from october it will come down to £1923 _ three months instead. from october it will come down to £1923 a - three months instead. from october it will come down to £1923 a year. i it will come down to £1923 a year. that saves the typical bill payer about £150 a year. not much on your monthly bill, but it is a milestone. it is the first time since april last year that it has come down below that £2000 mark. in terms of your bill it is made up of two parts. the standing charge, what the supplier charges just hook everything up. that will go up with inflation, but this is the average amount people use, the unit price.

it affects 29 million households across england, scotland and wales. it worked a tiny bit differently in northern ireland. in terms of affordability it is about 500 or £600 less than last winter. those government subsidies, that universal health rule, everyone got many of their bill. that has ended now as well. you might not see it change much in terms of affordability. it is now double where it was back in april 2021. is now double where it was back in a-ril 2021. ., , ., ., ~ april 2021. charities are talking about so many _ april 2021. charities are talking about so many people - april 2021. charities are talking | about so many people struggling april 2021. charities are talking - about so many people struggling with their bills and the cost of living. what advice is there out there? this is the bi what advice is there out there? ti 3 is the big worry. these are the summer months, when everyone loses a bit less energy. they are saying that everyone —— that people are in arrears. winter could be even harder with more people taking out loans and credit cards to pay for their bills. universe to government support has finished. there will

still be help for the most vulnerable households. the advice is, if you are struggling, get in touch with your supplier. the regulators are pushing suppliers to give more help to people. there are slight changes to prepayment meters, so people will pay a bit less. the government will still be providing help for about 3 million of the most vulnerable households through their winter home discount. the best thing you can do is be energy smart. look at your bill, see how much you are using. these average figures assume you use 11,000 kilowatt hours of gas and 2700 kilowatts for electricity. look at how much you are using and see if you can cut down. the worry is that it will become difficult in the winter. is that it will become difficult in the winter-— is that it will become difficult in the winter. . ~' , ., , . the winter. thank you very much indeed. some _ the winter. thank you very much indeed. some breaking - the winter. thank you very much indeed. some breaking news, i the winter. thank you very much l indeed. some breaking news, and the winter. thank you very much i indeed. some breaking news, and the kremlin is now saying that it is a complete lie that it was involved in the plane crash which is presumed to

have killed the head of the wagner mercenary group, yevgeny prigozhin. president putin's spokesman has said that the discussion of the incident should be, in his words, guided only ijy should be, in his words, guided only by facts. the kremlin saying that accusation that it was behind that plane crash are a complete lie. i have just got off the phone, a kremlin conference call. this conference happens most days. it hasn't happened for about a week, so it was the first one today since that plane crash near moscow that has reportedly killed yevgeny prigozhin. i asked the kremlin spokesperson what his reaction was to all these accusations, mostly

from western officials, that it was the kremlin that was behind the plane crash that reportedly killed yevgeny prigozhin. this is what he told me. he said it was a complete lie and he said, when we talk about this issue, we should be guided only by facts. we don't have many facts at the moment. the facts need to be clarified during the official investigation which is being carried out now. in some ways echoing some of those comments that president putin made on russian television last night. he also urged people to await the results of the official investigation. he also, as you remember, expressed condolences to the families of those killed in the plane crash, and also paid tribute to yevgeny prigozhin, but stopped short of unequivocally confirming that the wagner boss was killed in that the wagner boss was killed in that plane crash. the kremlin spokesperson today echoing president putin but also going further, when

asked by the bbc, specifically about those accusations, that it was the kremlin that was behind it, and a very firm denialfrom kremlin that was behind it, and a very firm denial from the kremlin that was behind it, and a very firm denialfrom the kremlin spokesperson. i very firm denial from the kremlin spokesperson-— very firm denial from the kremlin spokesperson. i think we can listen to what the — spokesperson. i think we can listen to what the spokesperson - spokesperson. i think we can listen to what the spokesperson said. i spokesperson. i think we can listen | to what the spokesperson said. let's have a quick listen. in to what the spokesperson said. let's have a quick listen.— have a quick listen. in the west speculation _ have a quick listen. in the west speculation comes _ have a quick listen. in the west speculation comes from i have a quick listen. in the west speculation comes from a i have a quick listen. in the west l speculation comes from a certain angle _ speculation comes from a certain angle it — speculation comes from a certain angle it is — speculation comes from a certain angle. it is all a complete lie. of course, — angle. it is all a complete lie. of course, when we talk about this issue _ course, when we talk about this issue we — course, when we talk about this issue we should be guided only by facts _ issue we should be guided only by facts we — issue we should be guided only by facts. we don't have many facts at the moment. the facts need to be clarified _ the moment. the facts need to be clarified during the official investigation, which is being carried — investigation, which is being carried out now. the president yesterday— carried out now. the president yesterday spoke about this. he said he is waiting for the results of the investigation which will be completed in the near future, and we will learn _ completed in the near future, and we will learn the details. | completed in the near future, and we will learn the details.— will learn the details. i think it is fair to say — will learn the details. i think it is fair to say that _ will learn the details. i think it is fair to say that some i will learn the details. i think itj is fair to say that some people consider russia's relationship with facts to be quite an interesting one. ., �* , facts to be quite an interesting one. . �* , ., , , one. that's right. i am sure this will convince _ one. that's right. i am sure this will convince almost _ one. that's right. i am sure this will convince almost nobody, i one. that's right. i am sure thisl will convince almost nobody, but one. that's right. i am sure this i will convince almost nobody, but if we are talking about those people that suspect it was the kremlin,

because if you watch russian television, obviously there is no mention whatsoever of the possibility that's possibly russian authorities, russian security services, were behind this. on russian television than messages very much that while it is pretty factual, there was a plane crash, officials are looking into it, and thatis officials are looking into it, and that is about as far as it goes. you are right, the kremlin doesn't have are right, the kremlin doesn't have a great track record on this. whenever they are accused of almost anything, be it doping, state doping of athletes, be it poisoning opponents abroad, poisoning the opposition leader, the list goes on, committing war crimes in ukraine. of course the kremlin tactic, the classic answer to all that, it's always deny, deny, deny. that is exactly what they have done today. thank you very much, in moscow for

us. around the world and across the uk, you are watching bbc news. let's look at some other stories making news. nhs consultants in england are striking for a second day in a long—running dispute over pay. health care bosses say the walk—outs will cause major disruption for patients. senior doctors say their take—home pay has fallen by more than a third since 2008, but new analysis concludes that earnings for senior doctors are higher than a number of countries including france, spain and italy. travellers will be facing major disruption this bank holiday weekend as rail workers across england are due to walk out on saturday. some 20,000 rmt union members at 1a rail companies are striking as part of a long—running dispute over pay. this weekend will see thousands travelling to events such as the notting hill carnival and the reading and leeds festivals. rishi sunak has warned the uk's asylum system is facing unsustainable pressure after the cost almost doubled in a year — to nearly £4 billion. the prime minister, who has made stopping small boats one

of his top five priorities, said the cost was "unacceptable". home office asylum spending rose by £1.85 billion in the year 2022 to 2023. you're live with bbc news. in the us — donald trump has become the first former president to have his mugshot taken. the photograph was released after mr trump was formally charged with election interference — in the state of georgia. he's one of 19 people accused of racketeering and attempting to overturn the state's election result in 2020. he denies 13 charges. mr trump was quick to post the image on social media, as part of his campaign for the republican presidential nomination. he remains the frontrunner. our north america correspondent sean dilley reports. a snapshot in history. this is the first mug shot ever taken of anyone accused of committing crimes as us president. it's not the first time

donald trump has been booked, but in his three other criminal cases he's been excused photographing. he is, after all, one of the most recognisable people on the planet. donald trump entered the jailhouse just after 7:30pm local time. he was technically in custody for less than half an hour, released on a $200,000 bond. what has taken place here is a travesty ofjustice. we did nothing wrong, i did nothing wrong. fulton county sheriff said that donald trump would be treated like any other prisoner. but if you look over my shoulder here, you can see certainly the security operation is huge.

police vehicles, helicopters, drones for blocks around the jail. now, part of that is because he is a former president. part of that is down to the protesters and counter protesters. these donald trump supporters, among those who believe in the face of all of the evidence to the contrary, thatjoe biden lost the last election. for these trump supporters, it's all part of a sinister plot to rob him of the white house. the rights of americans are being stripped away. today is one of the most obvious, obvious versions of it that are going on when we're putting a former president in jail. he firmly believed, like we did too, the election was not fair, was not transparent. it's lack of integrity. if donald trump was laying on the beach right now, i on his beach playing golf, this wouldn't be - happening behind us. how do you know that? i know it for a fact. how? because i'm an intelligent person. how will history remember donald trump? as a criminal and hopefully a convicted criminal. if, for some reason he gets to be president, because the dumb people in this country who are not

using their brain cells elect him, i am going to fight against it for the next four years. i'm hoping that this gets recorded in history. i'm hoping that this is one of the last times that we have to hear from this individual and the people that he represents. but i'm not sure that it will be. this will be a day america remembers. the first of a kind photograph destined for museum walls and the history books. sean dilley, bbc news, in fulton county georgia. live to new york now where we can speak to cbs correspondentjarred hill. don't wait for some of these co—defendants to turn themselves in. they have until noon today, which is about five or so hours from now. then we are expecting to see the arraignment at some point in early september, possibly. this would be

another first here, september, possibly. this would be anotherfirst here, because september, possibly. this would be another first here, because former president would be arraigned, in court, potentially with cameras there, being able to see him or his legal team, there, being able to see him or his legalteam, presumably there, being able to see him or his legal team, presumably plead not guilty, if that does happen. after that will be the trial. exactly when that will be the trial. exactly when that date is still up in the air, because we do know that the district interning had requested for this happen, initially in march 202a. she has just requested that day to be moved up, all the way to october of this year. the trump legal team has been pushing against that, so it is not likely to happen that soon. we will be watching to see when this trial does get started.— trial does get started. thank you very much. _ trial does get started. thank you very much. cbs _ trial does get started. thank you very much, cbs news _ trial does get started. thank you i very much, cbs news correspondent bringing us the latest live from new york. bringing us the latest live from new york. we know that trump has a very carefully crafted public image, so what impact will his mughsot have on that? let's speak to david meerman scott. he's a marketing strategist and author of the bestselling book the new rules of marketing and pr. hejoins me now from boston.

hello again. as we go through the next few days, the forecast is sunshine and also some scattered showers, some of which will be heavy and thundery. and that certainly is the case today. the other thing about today's forecast is we are losing the humidity levels that we have had in the far south—east of england. so variable amounts of cloud, some sunny spells and some showers. more showers developing as we go through the course of the afternoon. the driest conditions will be in the south—eastern quarter of the country. we can't totally rule out a shower here, but the heaviest ones with potentially a rumble of thunder will be across the north of scotland. temperatures, 1a to 21 degrees, feeling fresher in the south—east than it has done in the last few days. if you are off to the reading or leeds festival, there is the chance of a shower today. if you catch one, it could be thundery more particularly in reading, but we can't rule out showers even through the next few days for both festivals. so into this evening and overnight, we hang on to the showers

in the north and the west where they could be heavy and thundery, we'll see some sharp showers moving along the south coast of england. in between, some clear skies and a cool night, in fact, in sheltered glens, temperatures fall away to about 7 degrees. so, into tomorrow, we lose the showers quite quickly from the south—east. we'll hang on to the showers across scotland and northern ireland. more showers will develop more widely across england and wales and some of those will prove to be heavy and thundery. in between, again, we are looking bright spells and sunny skies. highs, 15 to 21, north to south. that leads us into sunday. we start with some showers across central and eastern areas, and lot of dry weather, some sunshine, but a weak weather front will bring more cloud with some spots of rain into northern ireland through the day. potentially getting as far east as western scotland. these are the temperatures, 1a to 20 degrees. and for monday, if you have the day off, our weak weather front continues to drift steadily eastwards, not much more on it

than a band of cloud and the odd spot of rain. on either side of it, we are looking at some brighter skies and highs between 1a and 21 degrees. and, of course, the notting hill carnival is on this weekend as well. the forecast for that, well, during the course of sunday, we are not immune to a shower, but it is looking much drier as we head on into monday, with highs of 21 degrees.
