I am absolutely buzzing, i cant wait to get into town and feel the atmosphere tonight. A momentous occasion, albeit not the greatest of matches. It started with a bang, liverpool awarded a penalty inside 30 seconds, dispatched with some gusto by the egyptian superstar mo salah. But as far as goals were concerned that was that until divock origi hit home in the 87th minute. A glorious night for the team, but also forjurgen klopp. His first trophy is liverpool manager, his first win in a final for seven years. For the players we were all pretty much crying on the pitch, because it was so emotional, so big, it meant so much to us. Spare a thought for tottenham, who have pulled off some heroics during this Champions League campaign, and might argue they were a little unlucky in the final, but this was liverpools night.

In a statement the company said President Trump has broken Diplomatic Convention by publicly commenting on the British Conservative Party leadership race. Ahead of next weeks state visit, he told a british newspaper that Boris Johnson would make an excellent prime minister. Heres our Political Correspondent iain watson. Politics, like comedy, can be all about timing. Donald trumps three day state visit will comejust ahead of the conservative leadership contest, and perhaps unsurprisingly, hes been signalling support for a blonde haired, occasionally gaffe prone big beast, telling a uk newspaper that borisjohnson would be excellent. Ive always liked him. I dont know that hes going to be chosen, but i think he is a very good guy, a very talented person. Hes been very positive about me and our country. And the president claimed that other candidates had asked for his support. Other people have asked me for an endorsement, i have been asked for endorsements. State visits are supposed to be diplomatic, not political occasions, but diplomacy and etiquette arent really Donald Trumps strong points, and hes not alone in this, because four years ago, as london mayor, borisjohnson accused donald trump of stupefying ignorance and suggested he wasnt fit to hold the office of us president. Ah, how things change. This conservative leadership contender said in any case, an endorsement from donald trump could be seen in a more negative light. I think you have to ask boris whether that helps or hinders boriss campaign, but what i would say is that i am very proud as foreign secretary that we have the best relationship with the United States. He was annoyed by michael gove suggesting that he had been sabre rattling over iran. The white house insists that donald trump hasnt formally endorsed a leadership candidate, but in another newspaper interview, he expresses views on the issue that divides them whether to walk away from the eu without a deal. Over the next few days, some of the aspiring occupants of number 10 will be bracing themselves, unsure if theyll be praised or buried by the outspoken visitorfrom america. Iain watson, bbc news.

Well more on this now and of course for every winner there is a losing team. Spurs were always the underdogs going into the final and simonjones spent the evening with some of them in north london. Here in north london some pretty glum faces. Hundreds of fans have packed into this pub to watch the game on big screens, thousands more went to watch the game at nearby tottenham stadium, their brand new stadium, but it wasnt the result they wanted. Things got off to a really bad start, spurs going behind under two minutes giving away a penalty. Despite that the fans have been in good voice during the evening, cheering on their team even though it didnt go the way people wanted. People here have been very proud of the way they have played in the Champions League this season, they never really expected them to get to the final but they admitted that spurs were the underdogs, but against perhaps their better hope and judgement, they thought maybe they could pull off a victory. It hasnt proved to be that way, but if you take a look down there, fans still chanting for their team, they know this has been a successful season, even if the result wasnt the one they wanted. Thousands of liverpool fans will welcome their team home for a victory parade later on sunday. Many of them were at the liverpool arena watching a big screen showing of the game hosted by bt sport. 0ur reporter Stuart Flinders was amongst them. Most of these fans arrived here full of confidence. They were convinced that this was going to be liverpools year. But even they couldnt have imagined liverpool getting off to the start, a penalty in the opening couple of minutes. Mo salah placed the ball on the spot, and this place fell clearly silent. It was like a church in here. Once the ball hit the back of the nets, the place went up and the noise could have been heard halfway to madrid. The rest of the game seemed pretty quiet. Certainly the fans here fell quiet as they took in what happened. They watched the clock tick away and then finally, near the end of the match, that second goal sealed it for them. The crowd went wild again and they knew. They thought before they came here this was going to be liverpools year, and they knew for certain it is.

All but one of the victims were colleagues of his. Police described the scene of the shooting at the complex in Virginia Beach as a war zone. Its the 150th mass shooting this year and the deadliest. Chris buckler reports. The police had no choice but to run in the line of fire but little could have prepared them for the carnage they discovered inside this local government building. The Office Workers were finishing up for the weekend when one of their colleagues walked in and started firing shot after shot, indiscriminately killing a dozen people. They said to stay and wait until the cops got there and let us come out. There was probably about 20 of us in an office, crammed in. We barricaded the door. For those that managed to escape the relief was obvious, as others were airlifted to hospital. So far the only explanation that has been offered for all of these deaths and injuries is that the gunman was a disgruntled employee. The suspect, and this will be the only time we announce his name, is dewayne craddock. At a news conference, the authorities were determined to focus on the victims, not their killer. One had worked for the city of Virginia Beach for more than four decades, another for just 11 weeks. This was a long term lack of any other term running gun battle with this individual. Vigils after shootings like this in america have become almost a custom, but nothing can prepare people for an attack on their community. My mom works down there and she was there, just trying to call everyone and make sure everyone was ok. It still doesnt even seem real. This was the 150th mass shooting in the us this year. But in the aftermath of these murders many people here did not want to talk about tighter gun controls. A large number of Americans Still believe in the constitutional right to bear arms, despite the obvious evidence about what easy access to guns allows. Chris buckler, bbc news, Virginia Beach. Northern irelands chief constable says there was an attempt to murder one of his officers in belfast this afternoon. A bomb was found under a car at a golf club in the east of the city. The officer had been playing at the club and was preparing to leave. The club was evacuated and other vehicles in the car park checked. Earlier our correspondent in belfast, john campbell, told me more about todays events. This all happened at shandon park golf club, which is in the east of the city, not very far from police headquarters. The Police Officer was playing a round of golf. As he was preparing to leave, he noticed that something was not right. There was a Strange Object lying under his car. He took no chances. He immediately went back into the clubhouse, he raised the alarm, and this huge security operation swung into force involving Army Bomb Experts and also a police helicopter. This evening, those army experts have confirmed that it was a viable device which was found under his car, and the chief constable was clear this was an attempt to murder that officer. The chief constable, george hamilton, describing this as a reckless attack. Now the security operation around that golf club is still ongoing. Tomorrow afternoon, we expect to get further details from the officers leading this enquiry about exactly what has happened. For example, where was the bomb planted . Was it planted at the golf club, or had it been planted on the officers car earlier and fallen off . There should be further clarity on what exactly the police know about this attempted attack when we speak to them tomorrow afternoon. Scientists are warning that drought could damage scotlands peat bogs, undermining efforts to tackle Climate Change. The flow country, in the far north of the nation, stores three times as much carbon as all the trees in the uk combined. Now artists are trying to raise awareness of the areas importance by turning the Scientific Data being gathered there into music, sculpture and sound. This report from james cook. This is the flow country. A blustery bog that blankets 1500 square miles. Unique in europe, it looks flat and featureless. When you first walk out into this bog, you have the idea that there is nothing much going on here but its amazing what happens if you just stop and the sun. And suddenly, the whole landscape seems to come alive. From this observation tower, scientists and visitors alike can marvel at a landscape formed over thousands of years. It is composed of not quite rotted away remains of plants. A mans when they grow take carbon through photosynthesis. Thats holding carbon in the peat. The moss is the important one. Its the main builder of the tab on my. Peat. The main builder of the tab on my. Peat. She is capturing the sounds of the flow country for a show of soundscapes and sculptures sculptures. She is one of the many turning signs into art. |j sculptures. She is one of the many turning signs into art. I started recording sounds from inside the bog, underwater microphones that i condone to the bog and have a listen. I can also bury them into the squelchy bog and i kind of want to listen underground, underneath the bog, below the blanket that is actually the title of the show. Im hoping to see so what a boatman which will make cooking and popping sounds. The art carries a message about conservation in the era of Climate Change. For centuries, the folk of the highlands sliced and burnt peat for one. A scientist now say it is essential to keep this bog christian. Underneath our feet, theres an estimated 400 million tons of carbon. That is more carbon than all the trees and the whole of the uk. Approximately three times as much. It will cover overall a very small proportion of the landmass of the globe but plays a tremendous role in regulating and slowly but surely cooling the climate. Is there a danger that is the climate warms, the storage of carbon here will be disrupted . There is a risk when people and are disturbed, we lose carbon at a faster rate than it has been a cube letter. It can feel Climate Change rather than mitigated. People are damning drains to raise the water level and cleaning the forestry to restore land to its original state. Preventing this bog fog drying out is critical in the struggle against Climate Change. Now the weather with ben rich. The first half of the weekend and the first day ofjune of course, brought a burst of heat and sunshine for some of us. Scenes like this were repeated across many southern and eastern parts of the uk thanks to a feed of very warm air from iberia. Temperatures to the west of london got very close to 28 degrees, the warmest day of the year so far. But as you can see that was not the story everywhere. Further north and west it was much cooler, largely down to some extra cloud and some outbreaks of rain. That cooler weather is going to spread across all parts of the uk over the next 24 hours or so. Low pressure increasingly taking charge. This cold front here will eventually open the door to that cooler air. But most of us starting sunday morning in the very mild, muggy air. Temperatures as we start the day generally between 11 and 17 degrees. We start off with some heavy rain, too, across scotland and thatll move northwards. And then heres our cold front, this band of cloud and showers moving across scotland into england and wales. Could be the odd flash of lightning, the odd rumble of thunder. But as this band of cloud and showers drifts eastwards, it squashes the heat ever further east. So eastern parts of england, through yorkshire, lincolnshire, east anglia, the south east, it could again get into the middle 20s, maybe 27,28 degrees. But further west, look at that 16 in plymouth, 19 in cardiff. We continue to see these outbreaks of showery rain pushing eastwards as well. Something brighter for western fringes of england and wales later, certainly some brighter weather through the day for Northern Ireland, at least for a time. 0ur cloud and showery rain continues to push eastwards across scotland. And it will be breezy for all of us. But into Northern Ireland, late in the afternoon were likely to see some showers and possible thunderstorms, and you can see the swirl here, this is quite a deep area of low pressure moving close to Northern Ireland and scotland. Thatll bring some brisk winds during sunday night into monday. Wind gusts of 40 45 mph are possible across parts of Northern Ireland and scotland with some hefty showers. All of us into cooler air though, by monday morning, so temperatures as we start the day between nine and 12 degrees. There is the cold front, all of us behind that front on monday. So a cooler, fresher feel but with low pressure in charge and some fairly tightly squeezed isobars on that chart, it is going to be windy, particularly across the northern half of the uk where we will also see quite a few showers, further south not as many showers, there will be one or two but most places will be dry with some spells of sunshine. But those temperatures, whereever you are, 15 20 degrees at the very best. And we stick with that much cooler theme as we head through the week ahead. We will see some rain at times, but also some spells of sunshine. This is bbc news, the headlines liverpool have beaten fellow English Club Tottenham Hotspur 2 0 to win the european Champions League. Liverpools german manager, juergen klopp, said it was the best night of his professional life and paid tribute to his boys forfighting on with no fuel in the tank after an exhausting season. Eight climbers, including four britons and others from the us, australia, and india, are missing on indias second highest mountain. They began their ascent of nanda devi, near the border with china, almost three weeks ago, but rescuers were sent out when they failed to return. A blast at an explosives manufacturing plant in the russian city of dzerzhinsk is now known to have injured 79 people. The kristall plant said that its director had been fired the previous day after being blamed for an explosion that occurred in april and also destroyed a section of the plant. Now its time for dateline london. Hello and welcome to dateline london. Im carrie gracie. This week the beast is here and im not talking about anyone on the panel. No, the beast is the nickname for the armoured limousine of the president of the United States and its in london this week because so is he. Protocol says state visitors avoid expressing a view on the internal politics of their host, but donald trump has already waded in on the tory leadership contenders and we shall follow him.
