una stubbs, who's died at the age of 8a.*s finances. last month miss spears launched a bid to remove jamie spears as conservator claiming the agreement controlling her life and career was abusive. mr spears has been in control of his daughter's estate since 2008. i've been speaking to entertainmentjournalist kj matthews, who says the move isn't as straightforward as it seems. it is like anything else. you have to read the fine print. you know, a lot of the people in the free britney movement were elated when they heard today that her father was going to step down from his role as co—conservator, particularly over her finances. but what they did not realise is that he said he would only step down when there is a smooth transition, in other words, yes, eventually he will step down but not right now. to think he's made the decision to step down because of public pressure? because of movements like the free britney that you express there which supporters and fans were speaking up so vocally on social media, or do you think is a

una stubbs, who's died at the age of 8a.s hello. there is no real heat in the uk forecast for the next few days. but across southern europe, it's a different story — it's been an exceptionally hot week, with that heat now migrating westwards. the orange colours on this chart show places where temperatures will be well above the average. in parts of southern spain, we could be looking at temperatures as high as a7 celsius because high pressure is trapping the heat in place. but for us, low pressure is close by — that means some brisk winds, some rain at times but not all the time, and temperatures will struggle especially across northwestern parts of the uk. and here through friday, we will see some quite hefty showers working through — some heavy, some thundery, especially widespread across the far northwest of scotland. further south and east, many parts of england and wales will be dry with just the odd shower here. and while there will be big areas of cloud floating past, there will also be some good spells of sunshine. b

una stubbs, who died today at the age of 8a. that's it.he uk is going to bring a fairly breezy and, at times, wet night for scotland, perhaps parts of northern ireland, too. further south you are, closer to the area of high pressure, it should be quieter and there'll be lengthy clear spells, maybe just one or two showers around. a breezy night for all, but certainly windy for much of scotland and northern ireland. it's here where we'll have the most of those showers, some of which could be quite heavy. a fairly mild night to come across the south and a milder night across the north than what we had the previous night. so, here's the picture for friday. you can see low pressure to the north, higher pressure to the south. it means that much of england and wales should have a fine day with quite a bit of sunshine around. more sunshine across southern england than what we had on thursday, maybejust the odd shower. further north you are, it will be windier closer to that low pressure. there'll some scattered showers for northern ireland, certai

una stubbs, who died today at the age of 84.t convinced england's captain — grey and friendly. and what's more, he was fit. yes, james anderson was playing. so england chose to bowl, appealing... no, keep trying, and trying. england made changes, haseeb hameed fielding. he's valued for his classical batting. some things stay in fashion. rohit sharma would please any era. india adapted and flourished, and england knew it. mark wood charged in, all his energy in every delivery, and... rohit sharma's batting could make a weaker bowler weep and any captain frown. regrets? he may have had a few. come on, jimmy, work some magic. rohit sharma, out for 83. then anderson again, cheteshwar pujara, caught and gone for nine. after two sessions of play, england had taken just two wickets. still, underfloodlights, they remained hopeful. but kl rahul stayed cool. and the sun returned to greet his batting. i mean, why not? that's just about perfect. from rain clouds to shadows, england's day did not run to plan. play is continuing so we have wi

we are going long here with david stubbs. am going to go back to the great productivity analysis of 15 years ago and give credit to credit suisse on that. there's a new capital deepening intake not believe -- deepening in technology. what does it mean for the stock market? david: it means great things. it means sustainable earnings. it means a capex cycle beating top line as well. it means significant changes in how businesses organize themselves internally, plus how they talk to their clients and manage their salesforce. that is one of the most powerful trends we are going to see, i global trend. it has been turbocharged by the need to all of a sudden go digital and reduce the end person contact. i think you are starting to see the foundations now of a significant boost in productivity for the next two or three years. what happens after that is an open question, but i will certainly take the overall positivity growth. -- overall productivity growth. lisa: which areas do you think will see the most gains? will it be the likes

five—time paralympic champion ellie simmonds and archer john stubbs carried the flag for the british atheltes opted to stay away from the ceremony over covid fears, and there was also a poignant momnent as the afghanistan flag was carried by volunteers — the two—strong team unable to travel because of the political unrest in the country. the president of the international paralympic committee gave a powerful speech as the games were offically decalred open, reminding the world of the even greater challenges that paralympic atheltes have had to overcome to make it to tokyo. —— declared open. pair olympians, you gave your all to be here. blood, sweat, and tears —— pair olympians. now is your moment to show to the world your skill, your strength, your determination. if the world has ever relieve you, now it's your chance to be relieved. champion, hero, friend, colleague, role model, orjust human. you are the best of humanity, and the only ones who can decide who and what you are. you are the truth. you are amazing. you choose to be the greatest in whatever the plan is. so competition st

the british team led out by swimmer ellie simmonds and archerjohn stubbs will have high hopes, whilearried by a volunteer as a symbol of solidarity. but for the competitors here, many of whom feared these games would never happen, the sense of joy was palpable and the head of the paralympics told them they'd already inspired the world at one of its most difficult times. when the games were postponed last year, paralympic athletes were beacons of hope. they never stopped believing they would be here in this stadium tonight. they are a force of nature. they are a force for good. it was then left to japan's emperor naruhito to declare the games officially open. speaks japanese an event which for so long looked injeopardy is then at last reality and the next 12 days of action could be just as spectacular. and so, after such a difficult build—up, finally these games are under way and while for the organisers the challenge of covid remains, they will be hoping that the athletes can now make the headlines. andy swiss, bbc news, tokyo. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you a

david stubbs in london with j.p. morgan is brilliant on the technological overlay in our underestimation of productivity. you have studied this with the former vice chairman of the fed. how do you take in the technology overlay right now and what it will do to wage growth? do we grossly worry about wage growth where we should not? mark: that is a great point. wage growth has held up well during the pandemic. i expected to continue to accelerate. i'm not concerned this is inflationary because productivity growth has also accelerated. part of that is cyclical, related to the pandemic. extracting from all of that, it feels like productivity growth is accelerating and there are many reasons for that. one is technology. there are a lot of technologies taking time for businesses and business practices. i think they are and we are seeing productivity improvement. if that is the case, that is weed-when. -- that is win-win. it is a win for workers, reason to feel more confident about our long-term fiscal situation, this will

ellie simmonds will carry the flag along withjohn stubbs at the opening ceremony for the paralympicsand go up for a run. we didn't have the normal environments we had to adapt in a different way. but also that makes you stronger because it shows that actually, you can be able to be here. we are here today at the paralympics and we've had a challenging year, four months out of the water, but we are here and we are ready to compete. so, a process mentally stronger and it shows that we can do anything. the team for europe's solheim cup has been announced, and there are three english players selected for their defence of the title against the united states next month. georgia hall and charley hull made the team automatically, while mel reid is one of six picks — from captain catriona matthew. georgia hall makes the team after finishing second in the women's open, and will be making her third appearance in the competition. charley hull meanwhile will be playing the event for the fifth time. mel reid, has been picked for the first time after missing out on selection in 2019. it was a tough

tom: the optimists, and i am going to lead here with a superb interview with david stubbs of jp morganesterday, and ben laidler's morning note, these guys say we are in a technologi cal revolution. can this overcome the gloom of this or the gloom of that? dan: technology tends to pass through to real technologies in the manufacturing process and goods producing process. we have sort of deluded ourselves for decades, thinking that these lovely devices we keep in our pockets and all of this prospect of ai in the future are going to provide some enormous productivity boost. they did during the internet revolution. we saw a huge jump in productivity. but that leveled out starting in 2003, and since then, we haven't seen that boost simply because this country doesn't really produce a lot in terms of goods. so a lot of the improvements we have seen in terms of productivity have migrated abroad. the ability of technology to be a real game changer really depends on finding avenues and channels for that technology to really add to domestic productivity. some of the policy we are talking about,

there is also a question david stubbs outlined on bloomberg surveillance a couple weeks ago, talking a positivity shock stemming from the big tech world, the idea that there is an increase in productivity stemming from some of the innovation, and that this is an underpriced feature in the economy. can you talk about how that translates into your market call? linda: that is a very interesting comment. technology has advanced much more quickly through the pandemic. for years now, technological advancements have made their way through all the sectors of the stock market. all sectors. energy sector being the one that has been fusing, most advancements made by technology companies. they have record profit margins. there is so much to worry about these days but the stock market is all about corporate earnings. we've had record profit margins. we were there at the end of 2019 before we went into the pandemic but now, record profit margins has every thing to do with the productivity that comes from to the logical advancements across the entire economy. that helps to power earnings. for five

so it's more interesting than when people yell it when they stubb their toe. it's the way they start out meaning something rather neutral and after a while they develop theseop meanings that have litte to do with where they start with language changes like that and profanity tends to illustrate that and the meanings are colorful so there's a lot of great stories with profanity. and where finally the story goes is what today's profanity is and it's notot what we call profaniy for most of us in terms of how we spontaneously have stopped with these things. if we think of it as things we dread that we don't want our children to say, that we hope they will never say and that we level extreme sanction it's no longer damn or shit. we think of slurs as something different from profanity. the truth is if there were a martian anthropologist who just watched us going about our business they would think the taboo words were these people are slurs against groups. that is what they consider to be a particularly egregious thing as opposed to the body or figures of religion a
