of india and england. this period is considered to be the era of looting of the people of india by england, which under the guise of economic relations and trade and commerce became the basis for political influence in this land. the british government followed an economic and ruthless agenda during the colonial period of the indian subcontinent. order a work that left no room for pity for the natives of the subcontinent. the indian subcontinent suffered countless crises, the worst of which happened in bengal. accessing huge resources and plundering the riches of india gave england the permission to expand its continuous territories even more , and the british navy attacked the coast of china. in this war, the victory was due to the superior technology of england and it led to bad results for the chinese. in the continuation of the colonial conquests , england's eyes turned to the middle east and the persian gulf and entered into a greedy competition with other powers it was colonized especially by france.

so my focus was on england. england are in the second tier of the nations league, portugal the top.ing strong and says he still has a lot to offer his country at the age of 39 even though he had a below par euros in what was a record sixth appearance in the tournament. he failed to score with portugal exiting in the quarterfinals. we also heard from bernardo silva, the manchester city forward, as they prepare to face croatia. he has added his voice to the debate about congestion in the football calendar. translation: the calendar is completely crazy. - there's no explanation. just today, we got the news at manchester city that we'll be having one single day off before playing watford in the league cup, so we'll play arsenal, have a day off and then play watford. if we're not knocked out from any competition by the end of the season, we'll be playing every three days for over nine months. i think that the burden that has been placed on players is completely absurd. the 30—man shortlist for the balon d'or, awarded to the best male footballer of the year, has been revealed. for the fir

some heavy rain for northern and eastern england down into western england and wales.e west, same too for northern ireland. not as warm generally, i think, temperatures high teens, low 20s, so it could be quite wet and on the cool and breezy side for the great north run across north east england for sunday. that may be better for many people competing in the run, but as we head into the evening and overnight, it looks like that rain which has pushed northwards, will start to return eastwards again as some of it will be heavy across the north east but lighter and patchier further south. clearer skies for scotland and northern ireland turning cooler here. a slightly fresher night for england and wales and southern scotland, but there will still be a lot of cloud around. now into monday, we see that area of low pressure start to pull out into the near continent. it takes its weather front with it so the breeze, the cloud, the rain slowly easing from eastern areas. skies brighten up for large parts of england and wales. scotland, northern ireland see another weather front
