she's died at the age of 90. plus, a co—defendant of donald trump's pleads guilty in an election interference case in georgia. hello, i'm caitriona perry. you're very welcome. the clock ticking with no deal in sight — the us government is inching closer to a shutdown by the end of saturday. the house rejected a short—term funding measure on friday with 21 republicans joining house democrats to vote no, increasing the likelihood of a shutdown. that stopgap measure could have kept the government funded for several weeks while congress worked on long—term spending plans. lawmakers are scheduled to meet saturday for more votes. after the earlier failed attempt to pass a bill, house speaker kevin mccarthy said it's not over yet.

earlier, my colleague sumi somaskanda spoke to robert costa of cbs news, about a potential path to a deal and the obstacles mr mccarthy would have to overcome. at this point, there is a viable path. based on my conversations with some house republicans today about getting the government funded for a short period, maybe three or four days, maybe a week, maybe two weeks — that would be what's called a short—term, clean, continuing resolution. some kind of stopgap bill to keep the government running as negotiations are ongoing and negotiations are ongoing. house speaker kevin mccarthy is struggling to get his republican members to come around to a consensus. there's a real debate among republicans about how to handle immigration with any kind of government funding bill, how far to go. so far, mccarthy has really been toiling in terms of getting members of the so called house freedom caucus, the hard—line

conservatives, to come along. what does this mean for kevin mccarthy? -- 21 —— 21 republicans voted against. earlier, i spoke to republican congressman tim burchett. are we looking at a shutdown at this point?— this point? yes, ma'am, i think it is. ithink— this point? yes, ma'am, i think it is. | think it'll— this point? yes, ma'am, i think it is. i think it'll be _ this point? yes, ma'am, i think it is. i think it'll be a _ this point? yes, ma'am, i think it is. i think it'll be a short - it is. i think it'll be a short one, but i think we're looking at it. i guess the good side is that folks will be paid today and tonight and the shutdown would probably happen at 12 midnight on saturday. what midnight on saturday. what makes you _ midnight on saturday. what makes you think _ midnight on saturday. what makes you think it'll - midnight on saturday. what makes you think it'll be - midnight on saturday. what makes you think it'll be a i makes you think it'll be a short one. 7 i makes you think it'll be a short one. ?_ makes you think it'll be a short one. ? i 'ust have that feeling. h short one. ? ijust have that feeling. there's _ short one. ? ijust have that feeling. there's quite - short one. ? ijust have that feeling. there's quite a - short one. ? ijust have that feeling. there's quite a few| feeling. there's quite a few things we're trying to get done, but i suspect that's just... i've been through the things before in government, and this one has that feel about it. i

and this one has that feel about it— and this one has that feel about it. ~ ., :: ., about it. i think about 20 of our about it. i think about 20 of your party _ about it. i think about 20 of your party colleagues - about it. i think about 20 of your party colleagues voted j your party colleagues voted with the democrats today to vote against a continuing resolution that would have kept the government funded for another 45 days. something we know you're not in favour of. what does the path to agreement look like? ~ ., , , look like? well, i would submit to ou look like? well, i would submit to you that _ look like? well, i would submit to you that we _ look like? well, i would submit to you that we should - look like? well, i would submit to you that we should have - look like? well, i would submit| to you that we should have been here the whole month of august instead of being back home in our districts. we knew september 30th was coming. i think it shows the flaw in our system and that we need to push towards more continuation of single issue funding bills, not a bunch of things that are loaded up with different ideas like this single bill we can vote on. i believe that's our path forward. and then, i would like to see us pass a budget. the united states has not passed a budget in over 30

years, and that needs to stop. but very specifically, if you're talking about a shutdown happening but being a short one and that you've done this before and you see the signs of a resolution there, how are you going to it to that point? i don't think it's a resolution, ijust think it's don't think it's a resolution, i just think it's something crammed down our throats that we don't like on the conservative sides. we'll have few people caught probably cave. that'sjust few people caught probably cave. that's just the process and i'm going to keep fighting. we take in about $5 trillion a year. in my conservative estimates, we're going to send over $7 trillion this year. we can't keep that up. we're $33 trillion in debt. what we're doing is not working. and i would submit to you to that of shutdown is horrible and it's not good and it hurts some of the most vulnerable citizens.

what if we further deflate the value of the dollar, inflation continues to skyrocket, i submit to you that will hurt people a lot worse and we will see a complete collapse of our system, and i can cause worldwide implications of. indeed. you mentioned there that you would like to see congress back in august. is that the fault of kevin mccarthy of your own party? we do it every _ mccarthy of your own party? - do it every year and this is the first year the republicans have been in congress since i've been here. so, it'sjust a continuation. mainly because we've had... i'm pretty sure the reason is we run every two years and they don't want to give us the month of august off before primary vote in an election year, so they do it every year and say it's a constituent month or something like that. i actually work harder back in my home district than i do when i'm in

washington just than i do when i'm in washingtonjust because than i do when i'm in washington just because i than i do when i'm in washingtonjust because i have so many counties. it's so spread out and i'm on the road going in meeting with folks all over the district. i would prefer to do it. i'm not in leadership, obviously. we have a real problem with our appreciations. we had a meeting the other night trying to work things out on appropriations and what we're doing, and she went to a fundraiser. with a bunch of fat cat lobbyists. i felt like that sent a terrible message to the american public. sorry, just coming back to the issue of leadership there. do you think the leadership of speaker is injeopardy? do you like thejob he's speaker is injeopardy? do you like the job he's doing, speaker is injeopardy? do you like thejob he's doing, you have confidence in him? i like the job he's doing, you have confidence in him? i don't think it's in _ have confidence in him? i don't think it's in there _ have confidence in him? i don't think it's in there pretty - think it's in there pretty right now. —— injeopardy. the folks are talking about replacing him are very close to

me and they're not talking about that now. all they're worried about his passing seeing single issue bills and balancing our budget. that's what they're focused on. all that will take care of itself later. mostly, that'sjust the press stoking that up. iater. mostly, that'sjust the press stoking that up.- press stoking that up. we'll wait to see _ press stoking that up. we'll wait to see what _ press stoking that up. we'll wait to see what happens . press stoking that up. we'll i wait to see what happens over the weekend and what happens there. congressman tim burchett from jim tennessee, think for joining. from jim tennessee, think for “oinina. . ~ from jim tennessee, think for “oinina. ., ~' ,, from jim tennessee, think for “oinina. ., ~ y., ., thank you, ma'am. democrats are blaming the republican party for failing to act in a unified mannerfor the good of the country. earlier, my colleague sumi somaskanda spoke to democratic representative from maryland jamie raskin. he says he believes there is a way forward to avert the government sucked on my shutdown. do you think that's true? . . , shutdown. do you think that's true? , ., , ., _ shutdown. do you think that's true? ,., , ., _

true? there is a very easy way forward to _ true? there is a very easy way forward to avoid _ true? there is a very easy way forward to avoid a _ true? there is a very easy way forward to avoid a shutdown, l forward to avoid a shutdown, which is the house republicans living up to the agreement that they made in may with the house democrats. we had an agreement that both sides participated in. that's essentially what they are all for, so they have to live up to the agreement. knowing that nobody is going to go with that. they're throwing all kind of nonsense in there. we won't be engaging in there. we won't be engaging in billions of dollars in cuts to the domestic programmes of this point. they have proven themselves completely unable. to govern. republicans have

been calling republicans lunatics, extremists, the lu natics, extremists, the dysfunction lunatics, extremists, the dysfunction caucus and so on. this last minute to pretend... we heard about the short—term continuing resolution. is that something you would support? absolutely, on exactly the terms that drew overwhelming support in the senate. i think the vote was something like 79-11 the vote was something like 79—11 or something like that. but the senate sent us a clean resolution that had only changed two things in existing budget. to add disaster relief because of climate change, and then to send aid to our friends in ukraine resisting putin's luddy aggression if the people

there. —— bloody aggression. we've spoken to a few hardliner republicans who are the holdouts, and they've told a few things that it has happened at the very last minute. they've also said it is time for congress to be able to pass a budget and stop spending more than the government. what's your response to that?- your response to that? they didn't care _ your response to that? they didn't care about _ your response to that? they didn't care about any - your response to that? they didn't care about any of- your response to that? they didn't care about any of that when donald trump was president, when they had record deficits and added trillions of dollars to the debt. in any event, it's not what the republican caucus agreed to. we had an agreement with them in may to avoid just these kinds of extremist, madcap antics they're engaged in. don't take my word, the republicans are calling them lunatics and maniacs and the dysfunction caucus and so on. that's what's

happened. we have multiple parts of our government. everybody�*s together. the house democrats are altogether and... crosstalk sorry to interrupt, but you just mentioned the president. he has to sign off on any deal. do you think he should be playing a bigger role here is ? i don't know what to say other than _ ? i don't know what to say other than we've - ? i don't know what to say other than we've already l other than we've already negotiated the agreement. they're letting people beholden to donald trump try to shut the government down. what he's saying is shut the government down in order to shut down these "political prosecutions against me." he really believes that first of all it's worth it to throw millions of people off of their paycheques and shut down the government of the united states and create all of this dysfunction and confusion if it would delay his cases so

that he might be able to make it to the election without having to face a jury of his peers. he believes that's work it, which is talking in itself, but at any of the event it's wrong —— it is shocking in itself. that's what's driving this home maniacal train here. let'sjust call it this home maniacal train here. let's just call it for what it is. donald trump dictates to matt gates, then they go out and do it. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. let's look at some other stories making news. officials in the us state of nevada have charged a former gang leader in the murder of tupac shakur. the rap icon was gunned down in a drive—by shooting in las vegas in 1996. duane "keefe d" davis was indicted by a grand jury on friday. a nevada state prosecutor said davis was the on—site

commander of the killing. police in pakistan say that more than 50 people have been killed and dozens injured in a suicide attack. the blast happened near a mosque in the south—western balochistan province on friday as people gathered to celebrate the birth of the prophet muhammad. officials in balochistan have declared a state of emergency. no group has claimed responsibility for the attack. a major medical trial has found that men being treated for prostate cancer could safely be given far less radiotherapy. doses can be cut by three—quarters. the international trial involved nearly 900 men with medium—risk prostate cancer. you're live with bbc news. tributes are pouring in for the longest serving female senator in us history, dianne feinstein of california, who died at the age of 90 after casting her last vote in congress on thursday.

her passing comes after months of health issues. a short while ago, i spoke with former california congresswomanjane harman, a long—time friend and supporter of senator dianne feinstein. our sincere condolences to you on the loss of your friend. i know these things aren't easy to do. you actually saw senator feinstein just yesterday and took a fabulous photograph of both of you. how was she then? she photograph of both of you. how was she then?— was she then? she was wonderful, _ was she then? she was wonderful, and - was she then? she was wonderful, and the - was she then? she was - wonderful, and the predictions of her demise were way premature until she actually left us. yesterday, she was vibrant, she was beautiful. hour—long conversation in her study was about what she wanted to accomplish, what additional things she wanted to accomplish in the senate and how she saw the world and what friendship means, especially among women.

"what can i do to bring the country together?" she still was very active in her office.

she was leading her daily schedule while i was there, and in the future, and one of the things she fought for was appropriation for california. i'm sure everyone in the world now knows, our government may close because we can't fund our budget. so i'm hoping, if something impresses passes, i would love for it to be passed in her honour.— would love for it to be passed in her honour. speaking of her lea , in her honour. speaking of her legacy. she — in her honour. speaking of her legacy. she did _ in her honour. speaking of her legacy, she did it _ in her honour. speaking of her legacy, she did it so _ in her honour. speaking of her legacy, she did it so much - legacy, she did it so much there. the city was in a very bad place when she became mayor. bad place when she became ma or. . . bad place when she became ma or. , , ., , mayor. yes, she was the chairman _ mayor. yes, she was the chairman of _ mayor. yes, she was the chairman of the - mayor. yes, she was the chairman of the board i mayor. yes, she was the chairman of the board ofj chairman of the board of supervisors of san francisco when there were two major assassinations of the mayor and one other person. she foot her finger through the bullet hole.

but widely across europe. and in fact, temperatures are expected to reach the 30s in spain, france, in the uk, even mid—20s expected in the south in the days ahead. now, at the moment, there is a little weather front heading our way — that is going to bring a bit of a mixed bag for some of us. now, the early hours will be clear, generally speaking, across most of the country, and it will be quite a nippy morning. in fact, in the glens of scotland, it could be around four degrees, but i think for most of us, in the range of around 7—10 celsius. so, it starts off quite sunny and bright at the very least for most of us. but out towards the west, this rain crosses ireland and you can see thickening cloud there from the southwest across wales, the irish sea, northern ireland and into southwestern scotland. so here, a very different picture to other parts of the country. outbreaks of rain at times heavy in belfast and also gusty winds around coasts. the north of scotland, most of the north sea coast and further south the weather's

looking fine, sunny. i think sunshine for plymouth, for the isle of wight and also for london, where highs will reach 20 celsius. now, notice that rain never reaches the south. it veers off towards the north, and with that also comes relatively humid air to the south of that weather front, and that humid and also quite warm air will spread across many parts of the country. that means that early in the morning, on sunday, it will be very warm. look at that — 16—17 degrees celsius at eight o'clock in the south. now, there will be a little bit of rain around in the morning, i think across parts of wales and the midlands. but eventually, the sun should come out in most areas, and we're talking about the mid—20s in the southeast on sunday, a little bit fresher in scotland and northern ireland here of around 16 or 17 celsius. now, the outlook for the rest of europe shows a large area of high pressure building across the continent. that's basically going to allow the warm air to spread all the way to eastern parts of europe. there'll be a bit of a blip because this weather front will introduce temporarily some slightly fresher air to some parts of europe. but i think overall, it's

going to stay on the warm side. let's have a look at a snapshot, then, for some of our cities into the week ahead, and generally speaking, really quite warm.

hey, i'mjulia with the catch up. a 14—year—old girl and a coach driver have died after their school bus overturned on the m53 in merseyside. police say that 58 people were involved. a 14—year—old boy also suffered life—changing injuries. pupils at the schools are getting special support. some other stories now from sunday. a new law will ban shops and takeaways from selling single—use plastic like cutlery and polystyrene cups. the thing is, some businesses are saying they have no idea about the ban, and haven't prepared at all.

facing financial stress, more than half of uni students are balancing their studies with paid jobs. the higher education policy institute, which did the research, is worried it makes inequalities between students worse. people born using sperm or egg donors in the uk who turn 18 after sunday will now be able to find out who their donor is, because of a law from 2005. matthew and phoebe were conceived via sperm donor. they've known since they were two, but only the bare minimum. his height. his, like, build. eye color, hair colour, age, some of his hobbies. so when we have a conversation at home, he's usually referred to as the colombian guy orjust... or "the dad". and we'll leave you with 10 seconds of pioneering pipes. yes, thanks to her tiktok fame, royal albert hall organist
