she accused him of "demeaning his office by opening the gates to whip up a public frenzy" against her. spain's luis rubiales vows to defend himself over the way he kissed a world cup winner on the lips, following fifa's suspension. hello, i'm monica plaha. let's start wih the breaking news of the last couple of hours. nadine dorries, the conservative mp and former minister, has resigned her commons seat with a scathing attack on prime minister rishi sunak. ms dorries had said she would resign injune ms dorries had said she would resign injune after claiming that downing street had blocked her receiving a peerage, something which number ten denied. but she had remained as an mp —

saying she was continuing to work for her constituents, despite coming under pressure from other mps to go through with her promise to leave the house of commons. she has also released a resignation statement saying that rishi sunak has demeaned his office by whipping up a public frenzy against her. and she also accuses mr sunak of running a zombie parliament with a government which is adrift. and she claims he has squandered the goodwill of the nation. our political correpondent ian watson gave me the details. well, nadine dorries said she would resign back on june the 14th. she said she would resign with immediate effect. it's well known that nadine dorries is a close ally of the former prime minister boris johnson. she was culture secretary, of course, in his administration. she was not at all pleased at the way in which she was ejected from office and none too chuffed about the short lived nature of his successor, liz truss, this time at number ten downing street either. so therefore it is unsurprising that she's taking a swipe at the current prime minister, rishi sunak, in her resignation statement. now, first of all, let's take a look at the timing of what she's done.

she says this will allow for a by—election to be called when parliament resumes in september. in other words, she is quite keen to see her mid bedfordshire parliamentary seat be contested around the time of the conservative party conference, putting maximum pressure again on rishi sunak, although he may try to of course delay the date of that by election. but opposition parties are already campaigning in her seats and seem to be hopeful of some success, despite the fact that she's got a huge majority of more than 20,000. but let's take a look at the nature of that attack. rishi sunak, as i say, not desperately surprising that she'd want to have a bit of a go at him, but nonetheless, she is known for speaking her mind and she certainly doesn't hold back. so let me just give you a few choice quotes from her resignation statement. she says, "you have no mandate from the people." she says to rishi sunak. she says his government is adrift. she says he's squandered the goodwill of the nation. and she's also accused him of orchestrating daily personal attacks. and there is a pitiful low level, which his government, she says,

has descended to. now, obviously, we're going to try to get the reaction from downing street to her comments, but she's not somebody who backed rishi sunak�*s first attempt to become leader of the party, never mind his second successful attempt to lead the conservatives. it is well known, i think, that she was displeased about not receiving a peerage. she said her reason for staying on as an mp after initially announcing her resignation and then not following through was because she wanted to find out the reasons why she hadn't been elevated to the house of lords. i'm not sure she's been yet given those reasons, but that's certainly the case. i think that she suspects that the current administration, number ten, had something to do with it, despite their denials. but she is somebody who writes bestselling books as well as had a seat at the cabinet table. so it is unsurprising that anything she does gets a huge amount of coverage and she certainly knows how to, shall we say, coin a memorable phrase, plenty of them

in her resignation statement. 0ur political correspondent ian watson. let's get the labour response now. peter kyle is the shadow northern ireland minister and he's also been overseeing labour's preparations for a by—election in nadine dorries�* mid bedfordshire constituency. he gave me the labour point of view. it doesn't surprise me that she has gone out in this fashion, because the conservative civil war has been raging for a long time. rishi sunak and nadine dorries and a whole group of others behind them are at war with each other and of course, the people who have suffered the most, have been the people of mid bedfordshire, residents there who have been prevented for having the by—election that they need because of nadine dorries refusing to do so. no formal response yet from downing street. live now to former conservative special adviser, mo hussein. thanks so much forjoining us on bbc

news. first of all, what is your take on this resignation, and the criticism of mrs in ibus matveychik? she said, since you took office, the country run by a zombie parliament where nothing meaningful has happened. we where nothing meaningful has happened-— where nothing meaningful has ha ened. ~ . . " where nothing meaningful has hauened. ~ . . " ., happened. we have waited 11 weeks or so for this and — happened. we have waited 11 weeks or so for this and we _ happened. we have waited 11 weeks or so for this and we finally _ happened. we have waited 11 weeks or so for this and we finally have - happened. we have waited 11 weeks or so for this and we finally have it. - so for this and we finally have it. i don't think a lot of this is particularly surprising, there is no love lost between her and the prime minister. she is a huge boris johnson outrider, borisjohnson johnson outrider, boris johnson supporter, johnson outrider, borisjohnson supporter, and she does have because in terms of how she felt it went down a door so she hasn't got a peerage. she does clearly have a way with words, she is a novelist and there were some flourishes in here but i think what will be dull and really get to people in downing street and mps is her attack on the record of this committee much sense things like 200 mps or sour are dependent on what you do, referring to the election going forward and

people who are going to be worried about their seats. so she knows what she's doing, she is trying to people's fears and concerns about the vision and strategy for the conservative party going forward. but i think a lot of it in terms of the personal attacks against the prime minister are already priced in. , ., . prime minister are already priced in. personal attacks, as you mentioned. _ in. personal attacks, as you mentioned. have _ in. personal attacks, as you mentioned. have you - in. personal attacks, as you mentioned. have you had . in. personal attacks, as you i mentioned. have you had any in. personal attacks, as you _ mentioned. have you had any reaction from the conservatives and how do you think rishi sunak is feeling at the moment? i you think rishi sunak is feeling at the moment?— you think rishi sunak is feeling at the moment? i think he is trying to really move — the moment? i think he is trying to really move on _ the moment? i think he is trying to really move on from _ the moment? i think he is trying to really move on from his _ really move on from his predecessors, draws in clear water between the johnson predecessors, draws in clear water between thejohnson administration between the johnson administration and between thejohnson administration and the liz truss administration. she doesn't talk about any of the failures of those illustrations and puts it on rishi sunak. so i think he willjust see this as somebody who has never been supportive of him, have never been a loyal mp, and a lot of it he will expect to come from her, but there will be some

things around what will happen going forward. there is a sense within the conservative party among some peeves, certainly who are supportive of the prime minister, that it feels like a government management, dealing with problems, the prime minister would say he inherited them but going forward, what is the offer to the country, what is the retail offer, what things that people will be able to campaign on? when you have that situation and you a divided party, so explicitly out there in the open, people don't vote for parties like this so this will be concerning to mps who are seeing 20,000 seat majority is being overturned by opposition parties. and also, this is really good substance for the opposition party for leaflets and using in the campaign material. so i think it will stir up the concern that's already been underlined. it’s will stir up the concern that's already been underlined. it's fair to sa , already been underlined. it's fair to say, question _ already been underlined. it's fair to say, question that _ already been underlined. it's fair to say, question that has - already been underlined. it's fair to say, question that has been . to say, question that has been circling social media, parliament

and her constituencies, where is nadim? how to think the constituents are feeling at the moment? weill. nadim? how to think the constituents are feeling at the moment?— are feeling at the moment? well, i think they are _ are feeling at the moment? well, i think they are probably _ are feeling at the moment? well, i think they are probably thinking - think they are probably thinking finally we have something, because in the first part of the letter it is dedicated to herself, her own record so clearly that struck a nerve and she's using it to try and set out what she achieved and what she did in government. because she has been under scrutiny, she has been under pressure for doing her job properly, why has she not had a surgery for several years, what has she done for her constituents christmas i think they will want to move on but the prospect of another by—election for the conservative party in the current political climate is not a good one. we have seen what can happen in previous by—elections. so they will want to use this and exercise perhaps the protest vote and it could be more about her than the prime minister, we will have to wait and see. but to have an mp that is not really as present as they should be a naturally doing they should be until

—— although she would dispute that, i think will not be a good situation for anyone who is a constituent. thank you so much for your time on bbc news. mo hussein, former conservative special adviser. live now tojohn rentoul, chief political commentator for the independent newspaper. thank you so much forjoining us. first of all, let's just talk about the timescale of all of this. why now and what is your reaction? she’s now and what is your reaction? she's been under — now and what is your reaction? she's been under a — now and what is your reaction? she's been under a lot _ now and what is your reaction? she's been under a lot of— now and what is your reaction? she's been under a lot of pressure - now and what is your reaction? cil’" been under a lot of pressure to live up been under a lot of pressure to live up to her word, she said she was resigning with immediate effect back injune, so she has finally accepted the inevitable and quit. trying to cause as much damage to rishi sunak as she possibly can on the way out. i'm afraid you she's just gone completely over the top. this ridiculous long letter to rishi sunak, you know, she's lost it, is

my conclusion. i don't think anybody will take very seriously. which is a shame, because i thought she brought something to public life, she was a plain speaking working—class tories and proud of it. but the way she has left is extremely unprepossessing, put it that way. thud left is extremely unprepossessing, put it that way-— left is extremely unprepossessing, put it that way. and above scathing attacks there- _ put it that way. and above scathing attacks there. what _ put it that way. and above scathing attacks there. what do _ put it that way. and above scathing attacks there. what do you - put it that way. and above scathing attacks there. what do you think. attacks there. what do you think this does in terms of the unity for the conservative party moving forwards now?— the conservative party moving forwards now? well, they're not particularly _ forwards now? well, they're not particularly united _ forwards now? well, they're not particularly united but _ forwards now? well, they're not particularly united but has - forwards now? well, they're not particularly united but has now i forwards now? well, they're not i particularly united but has now has just said, this was priced in. she was not a rishi sunakfan just said, this was priced in. she was not a rishi sunak fan and just said, this was priced in. she was not a rishi sunakfan and by going so over the top in her attacks on him in her resignation letter, i think actually she strengthens him. because she has no credibility left, she resigned in a fit of pique because she didn't get a peerage, which doesn't reflect well on her, and trying to do as much damage as she can to the party, again, does

not reflect well on her, it's a sad end to a colourful career.- not reflect well on her, it's a sad end to a colourful career. what do ou think end to a colourful career. what do you think rishi _ end to a colourful career. what do you think rishi sunak's _ end to a colourful career. what do you think rishi sunak's priorities l you think rishi sunak's priorities will be now? no doubt he will be turning his attention to the in the constituency. what happens next and what would be his priority is? it interesting. i think rishi sunak will want to move on as quickly as possible because the point about by—elections at the moment is that the government can't win them. but this is an interesting one, because labour and the lib dems both intend to try for it and they will end up fighting each other i suspect. for all the talk of an implicit pact between keir starmer and ed davey, i don't see either labour or the lib dems standing back from this seat. there has only been one ball in the constituency which put labour ahead by a small amount, bit of a chaotic

paul. but the lib dems think that they can get it because they are good at this kind of safe tory seat, taking it on so it will be very interesting will stop indeed. the bbc did visit her constituency and some of them said that they haven't actually seen her for a some of them said that they haven't actually seen herfor a long time. despite her posts of doing more surgeries more often than the average mp. yes, i don't think she has endeared herself to her constituency, to her constituents and i don't think she's made life easy for the conservative candidate has to follow her. i think the thing about by—elections at this stage of the parliament when the government is as unpopular as it is, they are virtually unwinnable. so i think rishi sunak will want to just move on and forget that this ever happened, and he must be very, very

annoyed with nadine dorries for delaying the by—election because he could have got all the by—elections out of the way before the summer recess. . ~' out of the way before the summer recess. . ~ , ., out of the way before the summer recess. ., ~ , ., ,., . out of the way before the summer recess. ., ~ i. . ., out of the way before the summer recess. ., ~ . ., recess. thank you so much for your time on bbc _ recess. thank you so much for your time on bbc news. _ recess. thank you so much for your time on bbc news. john _ recess. thank you so much for your time on bbc news. john rental, - recess. thank you so much for your i time on bbc news. john rental, chief political commentator for the independent newspaper. luis rubiales has said he will defend himself, after fifa provisionally suspended him as president of spain's football association. his suspension from all football—related activities came after he refused to resign after being accused of forcibly kissing a winner of the women's world cup on the lips. the spanish football federation accused jenni hermorso of lying about the incident when she said she did not consent to being kissed on the lips by him, following spain's victory over england in sydney. the organisation said it would take legal action against her. more than 80 players have now said they will boycott the games until he quits. earlier our reporter sergi forcada told us more about mr rubiales' response

to fifa's provisional suspension. well, this is the latest statement by the spanish football federation, in which mr rubiales says he is going to fight this accusation by fifa, saying he will legally defend himself in the competent bodies, he says he trusts fifa and this will give him the chance to begin his defence so that the truth, his truth prevails and that he is also able to prove that he is innocent, which is something that he's been repeating throughout the past few days, saying he didn't do anything wrong when the spanish national team were celebrating a few days ago. this is obviously the response, the answer to what fifa said earlier. in another statement, they said that luis rubiales has now been provisionally suspended and that suspension will last for 90 days starting today. while there is an

ongoing investigation was to have another thing bild are saying is that he should refrain to himself third parties from collecting or trying to contact with jennifer hermoso and that's relevant to this a few days ago big dub of the spanish football federation said they tried to contactjennifer hermoso to talk about this incident, and our fifa are saying, while this investigation is going on, do not contact her. investigation is going on, do not contact her-— investigation is going on, do not contact her. and we know that 11 members of _ contact her. and we know that 11 members of the _ contact her. and we know that 11 members of the spanish - contact her. and we know that 11 | members of the spanish coaching contact her. and we know that 11 - members of the spanish coaching team have resigned, mop —— but what reaction has there been? it is have resigned, mop -- but what reaction has there been?- have resigned, mop -- but what reaction has there been? it is a day of lots of statements _ reaction has there been? it is a day of lots of statements and _ reaction has there been? it is a day of lots of statements and counter l of lots of statements and counter statements, lots of reaction, the latest we have is that 11 members of the technical staff across the spanish women's football game have resigned, saying the attitude and that statement by mr rubiales are unacceptable and it's interesting to see who is part of this resignation letter, because the manager of the

women's national teamjorge letter, because the manager of the women's national team jorge vilda is not there. that makes him one of the very few public figures that is now supporting mr rubiales. because the men's manager is now also criticising or being quite critical with the president of the spanish football federation and that's quite a change because both of them yesterday were applauding as to ruby alice while he was giving his press conference and in which he said he had done nothing wrong. —— applauding mr rubiales. 0f had done nothing wrong. —— applauding mr rubiales. of course lots of changing a lot of attention internationally but specifically in spanish media. many wondering not if but when mr rubiales will go. now, with a look at all the other sport, here's 0lly foster. hello from the bbc sport centre. they flirted with relegation for most of last season, but after three games, west ham are still unbeaten and top of the premier league. they beat brighton 3—1 at the amex stadium.

james ward prowse put the hammers ahead — his first goal for the club — before jarrod bowen and michail antonio put west ham in control. brighton did get one back late on, but it wasn't enough, and west ham go top on goals scored, level on points with tottenham and arsenal. i'm thrilled because we have not won here four years, the last couple of years coming here it's been disappointing because the results, a couple of them when we have come here have been an important and we have not had them so today was really well worth three points but i have to say, britain did a really good job but we did a very good job in the other parts of the game. tottenham briefly topped the table before that hammers result in the late kick—off. they continue to enjoy life under new manager ange postecoglou — after that moral—boosting win over manchester united last week, they won 2—0 at bournemouth. james maddison and dejan

kulusevski with their goals. elsewhere, brentford drew at home to crystal palace, whilst everton remain bottom after losing to wolves. it's the first time in 33 years that they have lost the first three games of a season, and they are yet to score. that has never happened. in scotland, leaders celtic have dropped points in the premiership for the first time this season — after a goalless draw at home to stjohnstone. rangers a point behind after beating ross county. also wins for livingstone and motherwell. in germany, union berlin have made it two wins from two to sit top of the bundesliga. they beat darmstadt 4—1 — despite playing 70 minutes with ten men, after having brendan aaronson sent off early on. wins too for bayer leverkusen, wolfsburg, hoffenheim and freiburg. in france, psg are still looking for their first win of the new season — they kicked off against lens around 15 minutes ago. brest missed the chance to go top after losing at marseille —

who leapfrog them into second. whilst in italy, atalanta could have gone top but were stunned by frosinone. ac milan will go top if they beat torino — and if they don't, verona could take advantage if they can beat roma, and they are currently 1—0 up. there was a moment of history at twickenham earlier — but it won't be one to remember for england's rugby team with the world cup less than two weeks away. they were beaten by fiji in theirfinal warm up match — with the visitors winning 30—22. fiji scored three tries as they beat england for the first time in their history. for steve borthwick�*s side, it's a fifth defeat in six matches. a much better afternoon for scotland as they beat georgia in theirfinal warm up match. they won 33—6 at murrayfield and will head to france

in a confident mood, after winning three of theirfour warm up matches. elsewhere, italy beat japan 112—21. the formula one world champion, max verstappen, has put himself in the perfect position to keep the home fans happy at sunday's dutch grand prix. he's on pole again in his red bull — qualifying half a second quicker than mclaren's lando norris. verstappen is chasing a record—equalling ninth grand prix win in a row. mercedes' george russell will start third, whilst his team—mate and seven—time world champion lewis hamilton could manage only 13th. all the details of qualifying in the build—up on the bbc sport website but for now that's all. around 2,000 items are thought to have been stolen from the british museum, but some of the missing treasures have started to be recovered. that's according to the museum's chairman. the organisation is one

of the uk's most prestigious cultural institutions, but revealed earlier this month that a number of treasures were reported missing, stolen or damaged. a member of museum staff suspected of involvement has been sacked. and hartwig fischer, the museum director, is stepping down after saying a 2021 investigation was mishandled. there's disruption to rail services across much of england today, as members of the rmt union take part in their latest strike over pay and conditions. there's a reduced timetable in place for much of the country, with some journeys into scotland and wales also affected. it's the 24th strike since last summer. monday marks 60 years since 250,000 people gathered on the national mall in washington, dc and heard reverend doctor. dc and heard reverend doctor martin luther king junior deliver his celebrated "i have a dream" speech on the steps of the lincoln memorial. these are live pictures from washington dc right now, where events are taking place to mark the anniversary —

with mr king's family and civil rights leaders also in attendance. to mark the 60th anniversary of martin luther king jr's i have a dream speech, his 13—year—old grandaughter says they're still fighting to keep his dream alive. doctor king urged us to struggle against the triple evils of racism, poverty and bigotry. today, racism is still with us, poverty is still with us and now gang violence has come for our places of worship, our schools and our shopping centres. and that's not the only thing. it's the final weekend of the world's largest arts festival. throughout the past month thousands of people from across the globe have visited the scottish capital to witness the edinburgh festival fringe. and today the winners have been announced for best newcomer, panels prize and best comedy show.

hello there. part one of the weekend has been very showery indeed. we've seen some torrential downpours in places with flashes of lightning, rumbles of thunder. we can expect much of the same for part two of the weekend as well. now, most of the heavy showers and thunderstorms which we've had through the day will fade out this evening and many places to turn dry with lengthy, clear skies. still some cloud, one or two showers across some western coasts. later in the night, we'll start to see this weather front working into western parts of northern ireland. that'll bring outbreaks of rain here. but under the clear skies, it'll be fairly cool, i think, for the time of year. so, this weather front then very slowly pushes its way eastwards across northern ireland, eventually crossing the irish sea, where it'll be very weak featured, no more than a band of cloud. so i think for northern ireland for sunday, although it starts bright, will see the clouds build and a light and patchy rain will move in from the west through the day. for scotland, england and wales, it's a day of sunshine

and showers and again, some of the heaviest showers will be across eastern scotland, eastern parts of england, with some rumbles of thunder, flashes of lightning there as well. top temperatures, 21 or 22 degrees. otherwise, it's the high teens for most. and expect a shower as well for part two of the weekend, both the reading and the leeds festival, some good sunny spells in between, temperatures around 19 or 20 celsius for the notting hill carnival, where the greater chance of catching a shower will be on sunday. it looks largely dry on monday with some good sunny spells and temperatures in the low 20 celsius. now, as we head through sunday evening, it looks like that weather front continues to push its way eastwards into western britain. a band of cloud, one or two spots of rain on it. but for most places, the showers will fade away and it'll be another clear and fairly cool night to come. so that's sunday night out of the way. let's head into monday. and for many of us, monday's a bank holiday. this front, this weather front, will be a very weak feature as it crosses england and wales. so, patchy cloud and one

or two spots of rain as it pushes its way eastwards. 0therwise, quite a bit of sunshine around on either side of that front. and we'll start to see this sunshine appear in abundance across scotland and northern ireland. temperatures 21, maybe 22 degrees in the south—east. again, it's the high teens further north and west and it stays quite showery and unsettled across the country for this upcoming week, although we will see a quieter spell with some sunshine and warmth across england and wales for a time.
