Campaign to put fake content on facebook and twitter. Click talks to the winner of a prestigious Global Learning prize about how they are helping children with maths and literacy in some of the worlds poorest countries. Hello, good afternoon. The neighbour who called police after overhearing a row between Boris Johnson and his girlfriend has said he had feared for their safety. Tom penn, who is 29, defended his decision to give a recording of the incident to a newspaper, saying that someone likely to become Prime Minister should be accountable. The story continues to dominate the front pages of the papers today. Our Political Correspondent nick eardley says it is clear mrjohnson does not want to talk about the incident. The argument his team mate because he has kept his private life private and that wont change, but something that is again splashed across the front pages of the newspapers this morning and with questions still unanswered, quite frankly. I think more fuel has been put on the fire by liam fox, the International Trade secretary, who is urging mrjohnson to give an explanation. I think its always easier to give an explanation but again, and the key thing is that how you get onto the issues. What we cant have is it being a distraction from explanations about wider policy and where we to go and when. A suggestion from one ofjeremy hunts main cabinet backers that this is distracting from the policies that the candidates would much rather be talking about. Lets briefly remind ourselves, borisjohnson was asked about this repeatedly yesterday at a hustings event in birmingham. Lets listen to a segment of that interview. Just to be clear, you wont make any comment at all on what happened last night . I think that is pretty obvious applause. 0k. But, look, you know, ive sat where you sat, i understand the responsibilities. I wouldnt have spent the first five minutes on it if you answered the question. I did answer it. Lets move on. That was Boris Johnson yesterday at the hustings in birmingham being asked about it. He wasnt saying very much about this whole row, but what about his supporters . His actual team, the people around him, arent saying a great deal. If you have a look on twitter, some of the mps who are backing him are quite clearly saying that they dont think that this guardian story is legitimate. I should point out the man who gave that recording to the guardian, tom penn, said he thought he was in the Public Interest for it to be out there and he only got involved because he was worried about the safety of the people in the flat shared by borisjohnson and his girlfriend, carrie symonds. Many Boris Johnson supporters insisting he doesnt have questions to answer about this because it is a private matter but some of his surrogates have been suggesting that it is of Public Interest, lets listen. The police were called to an incident and what did they say . They said everybody was safe, everybody was well, there was no concerns that the officers had and there was no cause for any further action. Given that is what the police have said and it is clearly a private incident, you and i werent there, i think we should leave it at that. That is the view of the johnson camp. The wider question is what impact will this have on the leadership contest . The question of character is crucial to this. You cantjust remove somebodys life from the campaign to be the Prime Minister. Jeremy hunt, his rival, has made clear he thinks character is important in this. He said character is something that should be scrutinised in televised debates and around the country. Team johnson want to move on from this and to talk about other things but i suspect that will be easier said than done because there are many who are saying there are Big Questions about Boris Johnsons character. There has been some opinion polling, not polling of the crucial electorate, which is the conservative Party Membership, who will be voting between the two main men . Boris johnson is the favourite. I think a lot of people have thought up until now that mrjohnson has one foot in the door at number 10. The mail on sunday has polled conservative voters to see what they think of the last few days and interesting to see, since that story broke on friday about this incident at mrjohnsons flat, the lead he has over jeremy hunt with conservative members, this poll suggests has been reduced. A long way to go in this. Still four weeks. Its not until the week beginning the 22nd ofjuly that we know the new Prime Minister. A couple of weeks until the ballot papers go out to conservative members across the country. So whether this will still be a big issue in a fortnights time, we will have to wait and see but quite clearly for the moment, a lot of pressure on Boris Johnsons camp. Its interesting, thejohnson camp have been keeping him, i think its fair to say, on the whole away from the media in the last few days and weeks and limiting his appearances. Because, it is argued, that he is quite an unpredictable character and, i guess, this sort of incident that we have heard about over the weekend is exactly what the johnson team feared . The joke you hear around westminster a lot at the moment is the only man that can stop borisjohnson becoming Prime Minister is Boris Johnson himself. Youre absolutely right. How often have we seen borisjohnson answering questions, you saw an example there . Hes done one interview, he had one press conference when he launched his campaign and was on that televised debate. But there is a sense with a lot of people out there, that we want to hear more from Boris Johnson. Our Political Correspondent talking to mea our Political Correspondent talking to me a little earlier on. The Us National Security advisor, john bolton, has warned iran that it must not misinterpret President Trumps decision to call off the air strikes. Speaking ahead of talks with israels Prime Minister, mr bolton said irans continuing Nuclear Programme and threats of aggression were not signs of a nation seeking peace. Neither iran nor any other hostile actors should mistake us prudence and discretion for weakness. No one has granted them a hunting license in the middle east. We expect that the new sanctions President Trump referred to in preparation for some weeks, will be announced publicly on monday. Stay tuned. Joining me now is the bbc persian special correspondent, kasra naji. Thank you forjoining us. Where do you see this going next . President trump you see this going next . President tru m p clearly you see this going next . President trump clearly pulled back from the brink the other day that his military action by the United States still on the table . Apparently, according to him it is still on the table. There are fears the americans are now looking for some kind of military action against some targets in iran that are deemed to be proportionate to what the iranians did day few days ago, shooting down the american unmanned aircraft. So, whats that target might be, i think they are probably working on that and will decide what to do. What they seem to be suggesting is that they seem to be suggesting is that the attacks should not entail loss of life on the iranian side. So i presume they are working on that. And as we have heard, there have been effectively cyber warfare in this conflict . That is right. A report from the Washington Post says that apparently the us Cyber Command received a go ahead from the president to attack irans Computer System attached to its missile systems. And according to the Washington Post, it did cripple these systems that are attached to missile launchers and rocket launchers. We have no other information about that. Iranians are not saying anything. The iranian news agency, which is close to irans revolutionary guards, they are saying that they dont have any information whether this attack has taken place and if so, what impact it has had on the iranians systems but it says it could also be a blast from the american side to divert attention from the humiliating impact of this downing of the unmanned aircraft. And underlying this whole conflict really is the situation in iran, the sanctions that have increased pressure on the economy. A lot of people in iran restive, angry with the authorities, with their government. Is the government under real pressure now, do you think, and in some ways does welcome this kind of conflict with the United States as a distraction from all the economic problems there are . Yes, john boltonjust mentioned they are thinking of major new sanctions to announce on monday. Already, iran is under huge amounts of us sanctions and this is crippling irans economy. It cannot go on for much longer. I give it probably two, three or four months for iran to basically get to a very desperate position. What would happen then . That is it, nobody knows. When the economy gets to that point, when the government cannot feed its people, then you would have to find a way out. What that option is is not clear. There are hardliners in iran who im sure i thinking, 0k, a conflict with the us mightjust do the trick by diverting attention to an enemy outside the country and blame everything on the americans and see what happens. All right, good to talk you. Thank you for your time. Lets hear more on the reports we just heard. The cybersecurity expert emily taylor says these types of attacks are becoming a part of countries toolkits. It sort of sits alongside the more traditional capabilities. What is interesting here is not so much that the us launched, allegedly launched the us launched, allegedly launched the cyber attack, but they have claimed credit for it. There are many incidents where it is thought that active cyber measures have been used, but states have kept quiet and thatis used, but states have kept quiet and that is one of the aspects of cyber that is one of the aspects of cyber that makes it so attractive to states, that you can inflict potential damage without being identified. And without causing any casualties, i suppose, identified. And without causing any casualties, isuppose, which identified. And without causing any casualties, i suppose, which is another attraction . Well, it all depends on where you draw the line. Last month, we saw in israel allegedly in response to hamas Cyber Attacks, they actually bombed hamas installation. That shows how quickly things can escalate, even if you think that this is a sort of fairly clea n way think that this is a sort of fairly clean way of responding. States have to, they have various options and they have to seek a proportionate response to the attacks that the us have been worried about, and so cyber is part of that toolkit. We know there have been escalating tensions between the two countries in the last few days and weeks, what sort of damage do you think this might have done to iran . It is difficult to say at this time because the reports are so early. However, i think, because the reports are so early. However, ithink, you know, the Iran Nuclear Enrichment programme has been a source of concern in the west for years. Ten years ago, there was an attack on Nuclear Installations allegedly by the us and israel in iran, and all of these, they can knock back capability by 18 months in that previous case. However, states who launch Cyber Attacks have to also watch their own back because nobody plasma cyber defences are perfect, even the us. That helps to explain why the us has perhaps been so worried about 5g roll and things like that, because they dont want the state to have access to their Critical Infrastructure and do, and have the same sort of tactics done u nto have the same sort of tactics done unto them. Do you think the United States are unto them. Do you think the United States a re pretty unto them. Do you think the United States are pretty good at this sort of cyber warfare . They are pretty good at it but it is always easier to attack than defend in cyberspace. Also, Cyber Attacks are not like a bomb that blows up and does its damage. They are lines of code that can then be copied and used in other circumstances so a different type of fallout in the cyber world, which is that your exploit end up in the hands of your enemies and used against you. This is not a risk free type of approach. Even if it means that you dont have to deploy troops on the ground, it can lead to an escalation and you can end up being harmed by your own weapons. This has been seen time seen time and time again. Emily taylor there, Cyber Security expert talking to me earlier on. The headlines on bbc news to me earlier on. Theres continued focus on borisjohnsons private life after he failed to answer questions at a tory Party Leadership debate about why police were called to his house following reports of a row.

The high street bakery chain collapsed in january, with the loss of 900 jobs. Heres our Business Correspondent katy austin. It was later bought out of administration by another firm that says it wants to revamp the brand but as part of that rebrand, 900 people lost their jobs. But as part of that rebrand, 900 people lost theirjobs. That followed the discovery of a black hole in their accounts, which was eventually revealed to be about £91; million. Back in october last year, one arrest was already made and that was chris marsh, they form finance minister of patisserie valerie. This isa minister of patisserie valerie. This is a serious probe into what happened, how the chain collapsed as it did. Today, they confirmed to me that on tuesday and part of a joint operation with hertfordshire, leicestershi re operation with hertfordshire, leicestershire and the metropolitan police in london, five further people were arrested and questioned also in into action with this probe. They havent said exactly who those people are and exactly what they have been arrested for. 0k, katie, for the moment, thank you. Millions of residents of turkeys biggest city, istanbul, are voting in a re run of the election to choose a new mayor. The opposition candidate, ekrem imamoglu, narrowly won the vote in march, but the result was annulled after complaints by the governing ak party. Critics of the president , recep tayyip erdogan, himself a former mayor of istanbul, have accused him of pressurising turkeys election authorities. The north Korean Leader, kim jong un, has received a personal letterfrom us president donald trump, according to state media. Mr kim praised the letter as excellent and said he would seriously contemplate the interesting content. Earlier, our correspondent laura bicker gave me this update from seoul. Kim jong un was pictured on the front of the north korean state newspaper, reading the letter from donald trump and he said he would contemplate the interesting content of that letter. Could it be, for instance, that donald trump has come up with another proposal . Certainly, the timing is interesting, donald trump is due to visit asia later this week, firstly at the g20 in osaka and then hes coming here to seoul to meet with president moonjae in for talks about the Korean Peninsula situation. Its no secret, the talks between the United States and north korea have stalled since that summit in hanoi, where both sides failed to reach a deal. There have been very few talks between the two sides, but there have been letters between the two leaders. I think the interesting thing for us here is can these lovely letters, a beautiful letter, as donald trump declared, from kim jong un, and now an extraordinary letter to kimjong un from donald trump, can those letters be turned into actual meetings, and can those meetings be turned into a deal . Laura bicker reporting there. Researchers say theyve uncovered a Large Scale Campaign to plant fake content on twitter and facebook. The Atlantic Council, a us think tank, says the material originates in russia. Gareth barlow reports. Britain spying on america. Anti immigrant sentiment in germany. The involvement of irish paramilitaries in the death of a former russian spy. Serious stories, all of them fake. The campaign on 30 Online Platforms was designed to Stoke International tension. Researchers from the Atlantic Council say it originated in russia. Most of the posts failed to gain traction, but with russia repeatedly accused of trying to destabilise democracies, the latest revelations will surely cause further alarm. Moscow has repeatedly denied using the internet to spread fake news and also alter public opinion. But politicians in europe and also in the United States say the kremlin is guilty of trying to influence elections. In 2017, fake news was made word of the year. Its a phrase that has become synonymous with elections, the internet and also with russia. The latest campaign used scores of accounts in multiple languages and although its impact was limited, it once again highlights the challenge facing social media providers and governments to separate news that is real from news that is not.

Australian diver Rhiannan Iffland celebrated winning her fifth world series title. Well done to her. Lets check out the latest weather prospects with nick miller. Hello. After such a lovely start to the weekend, things not so straightforward today. Many noticed more cloud compared to yesterday. Whilst most will stay dry during daylight hours, a weather system is coming to the south west bringing some rain. As that feeds northwards tonight, there could be some torrential, thundery downpours. But it is across parts of south west england, wales and Northern Ireland that we get the biggest cloud, the breeze picking up on some outbreaks of rain gradually moving further north and east. Elsewhere, just some hazy sunshine to be had. Whilst many are dry, north of the central belt, a warmer day for east anglia and across south east england, a few spots come into the mid 20s. North sea coast with more of a breeze, very high pollen in england and wales. The rain moving northwards tonight, north wales and north england at the greater risk of seeing torrential downpours, maybe 20 50 millimetres. There could be some disruption. All that feeds into scotland as the night goes on, the rain heavy towards the east and a very wet start to monday, particularly across North Eastern parts of scotland. During monday, there will be a dry, cloudy start for many back showers and storms start to break out again. In southern england, the midlands, Northern England and north east england, feeding back towards eastern scotland, again, these areas at greater risk of seeing some disruptive downpours. A risk of flash flooding, hail, frequent lightning. Warmest in east anglia and south east england but very humid with the warmth here. As we go through monday night, still some wet weather in scotland. We could see another area of torrential downpours with frequent lightning working up south east england. And on tuesday, some showers and storms break out but by no means everywhere. There will be some hazy sunshine here and there, warmth and humidity as well. Soa there, warmth and humidity as well. So a very active weather pattern to start the week. Looks like it turns quieter later in the week, High Pressure becoming more dominant, tapping into some hot air becoming established across continental europe. Southern and western parts of the uk in particular going into next weekend, temperatures could be soaring, some spots may be even the low 30s. It is already very warm where the england lionesses are in action this afternoon. That is your focus. Forecast. Good afternoon. Theres continued focus on borisjohnsons private life this lunchtime, after he failed to answer questions at a conservative Leadership Debate about why police were called to his house following reports of a row. His supporters including the former cabinet minister liz truss say he should bejudged on his policies not his personal life. But detractors, Like InternationalDevelopment Secretary liam fox whos backing jeremy hunt said today mrjohnson should have given an explanation of what happened. Heres our Political Correspondent nick eardley. Often in the headlines, this time for the wrong reasons. After police we re for the wrong reasons. After police were called to the flat Boris Johnson shares with his girlfriend, mrjohnson has been reluctant to explain. I dont think they want to hear about that kind of thing applause but this senior tory who is backing mrjohnsons leadership rival said in explanation would be sensible. Its always easier to give an explanation, but i think the key thing is then how you get on tv issues. What we cant have is it being a distraction from explanations about why the policy. Mrjohnsons team say he has never a nswered mrjohnsons team say he has never answered questions about his private life. His supporters say we should move on. The police were called and what they say . They said everybody was safe and well, there was no concerns the officers had and there was no cause for any further action. Given thats what the police said and its a private incident, we should leave it at that. The front runner to be Prime Minister is no stranger to controversy. Scotlands first minister suggested he was racist for comments hes made in the past like comparing women wearing the muslim failed to letterboxes. Borisjohnson has the muslim failed to letterboxes. Boris johnson has made the muslim failed to letterboxes. Borisjohnson has made a fairly racist comments, people prepared to make comments like that cant suddenly throw their hands up in horror and say they appear to be racist as a result of it. The first thing we need to do is get brexit done. At the heart of the leadership contest a re done. At the heart of the leadership contest are questions about brexit. Both sides made their case at the hustings in birmingham yesterday. Liam fox suggested some of Boris Johnsons claims about what would happen if we leave without a deal are wrong. Mrjohnsons supporters say their man can deliver. We need a leader with the determination to follow through, go through to the sist follow through, go through to the 315t of october, the leave, preferably with a deal but without a deal if necessary. He will be asked many more questions over the next few weeks but for now hes the man to beat. Nick is here with me. The person who made this recording and gave it to the guardian has been defending that decision. Thats right, a man called tom penn who has said his sole concern at the time was for the welfare of the people in the flat. He said he gave the recording to the guardian simply because he thought it was in the Public Interest. That someone who wa nts to Public Interest. That someone who wants to be Prime Minister should be held responsible for their behaviour, in his words. Its clear mrjohnson doesnt want to talk about this, he refused to do so yesterday. His team say he doesnt talk about his private life and isnt going to start now. We heard liam fox suggesting there should be some explanation. The simple reason is conservatives would rather be talking about policy and about what they want to do in government. The problem is that weve seen time and time again mrjohnsons personal life and his character coming into question. The question is whether that will happen again. Thank you. Reports in the us say america launched a cyber attack on iranian Weapons Systems on thursday, as President Trump cancelled air strikes on the country. Several sources, including the Washington Post, said the attack disabled Computer Systems controlling rocket and missile launchers. The action was in response to the shooting down of a us drone in the strait of hormuz last week. A senior British Foreign minister has arrived in tehran today for talks amid growning tensions between iran and the west. Jane Frances Kelly reports. America appears to have used cyberspace rather than airpower to retaliate against irans elite military forces. Us media reports that the online operation was designed to cripple Weapons Systems like this, used by the Islamic Revolutionary guard to shoot down an american drone last thursday. The wreckage was later put on display by tehran. It came as President Trump publicly declared he had pulled back from an air strike on iran because it would cause a loss of life. What it has to do with, very simply, is the fact is we are not going to have iran have a nuclear weapon, and when they agree to that, they are going to have a wealthy country, they are going to be so happy, and im going to be their best friend. I hope that happens. But tensions remain high. The downing of the drone comes after a series of attacks on tankers travelling through the busy shipping lanes of the gulf, which washington has blamed on iranian forces. Mr trump pulled out of the Iran Nuclear Deal last year and has announced new sanctions will begin on monday. A British ForeignOffice Minister meeting with diplomats in tehran today has called for a lessening of tensions. Within days, iran is likely to start breaching some technical limits of the agreement. This puts pressure on european leaders, including germanys chancellor, who remains committed to it. Translation i say that the political solution should not just be a hope but it should be worked towards with the utmost seriousness, because i believe it should only be a political solution. Mr trump is using both the stick and carrot. He is piling on the pressure while offering the hand of friendship. And so far iran has shown little inclination to bow to his will. The north Korean Leader has said hes received a personal letter from donald trump. Kim jong un said he would seriously contemplate the excellent and interesting content and he saluted the extraordinary courage of the american president , according to reports on state media. Talks to stop north koreas Nuclear Programme remain stalled after the failure of the hanoi summit in february. People in istanbul are heading back to the polls for a re run of the Mayoral Election that has become a test of the popularity of president erdogan and turkish democracy. The first vote in march was annulled by the election authorities after the president s Party Candidate lost the government then claimed irregularities in the vote. Our correspondent mark lowen is in istanbul for us. Mark, how important is this vote today . This is much more than a local election, its a pivotal test for president erdogan, the key figure on the world stage on everything from European Security to syria. This is the city he once ran as mayor and propelled him to national power. Whoever wins istanbul wins turkey, he said. He may come to regret that statement because if the polls prove correct and he loses tonight, it would start to prompt talk of if this is perhaps the beginning of the end for him, the end of his political rise over the last 25 yea rs. Political rise over the last 25 years. The opposition has tapped into the widespread desire among its supporters will change with a positive, optimistic message. This isa positive, optimistic message. This is a watershed moment for turkey, this crucial country and its most powerful leader of modern times. Five people have been arrested as part of a Fraud Investigation following the collapse of patisserie valerie. The high street bakery chain collapsed in january, with the loss of 900 jobs, after a £91; million black hole was discovered in its accounts. Football and england play cameroon later in the last 16 of the womens world cup. The lionesses finished top of their group, but manager phil neville said cameroon poses a threat the team has not experienced yet. If england win theyre through to the quarter finals. You can see coverage of that match on bbc one and that is from apm. Thats it for now. The next news on bbc one is at 6 35 this evening. Until then, have a good afternoon. Hello, again. Sir Malcolm Rifkind has said that borisjohnson has made an error of judgment by has said that borisjohnson has made an error ofjudgment by refusing to a nswer an error ofjudgment by refusing to answer questions about why police we re answer questions about why police were called to his partners flat. A neighbour said he raised the alarm after hearing roy out of concern for their safety. He has defended its decision to pass an audio recording to the guardian newspaper, insisting that someone aiming to be Prime Minister should be held to account. I spoke to sir malcolm earlier on today. I think Boris Johnson has made an error of judgment. Today. I think Boris Johnson has made an error ofjudgment. If you are in the running to be the next Prime Minister and the police are called to your house, you can get away with no comments. I think he should not have spent a lot of time detailing the details, butjust say that he had a row. If he had said that he had a row. If he had said that it would have been enough, but sang no comments implies it is none of your business, and it is the business of the public to know why the police have been called to his property. Some of his supporters are saying that the neighbours who recorded this and then passed it on toa recorded this and then passed it on to a national newspaper, the guardian, that wasnt the clever thing to do. Maybe it was, maybe it wasnt, that is for them to explain. They knocked on the door three times, if that is true. If you hear a mini riot going on, if you knock on the door and you dont hear a nswe rs , on the door and you dont hear answers, you do get worried. There are questions about mrjohnson because my temper. One of his biographers who work with them quite a few years ago said this is typical of him. He has quite a short fuse, quite a temper. Is that relevant . If you are at the Prime Minister trying to renegotiate our brexit deal in brussels, with that come into play . I wouldnt read read too much into that. Gordon brown had a furious temper, it wouldnt disqualify you from being Prime Minister. For Boris Johnson, this isjust one of from being Prime Minister. For Boris Johnson, this is just one of a whole host of issues that have opened up the question as to whether he has the question as to whether he has the capability, the personality to handle thejob the capability, the personality to handle the job of Prime Minister. I work with Margaret Thatcher and john major, they didnt have much in common, but one thing they did was the ability to absorb vast amounts of information, to work incredibly ha rd of information, to work incredibly hard supervising not just of information, to work incredibly hard supervising notjust one Government Department but the whole spectrum of government, knowing what was going on, providing leadership, providing Strategic Direction and thatis providing Strategic Direction and that is what i look for in a Prime Minister and i think the country does as well. Some people have suggested that boris might be more ofa suggested that boris might be more of a nonexecutive chairman with able people around him. The last thing we wa nt people around him. The last thing we want is a nonexecutive chairman, we wa nt want is a nonexecutive chairman, we want a leader, who will provide leadership notjust by having speeches, but having clear control of what is going on at their own government and being able to speak to other Prime Ministers on equal terms and have them respecting what you have to say. Will this row make much difference in term of the campaign, the battle of the leadership for the leadership . He is widely loved not to say adored by many of the Party Membership you will be voting. They knew a lot about his colourful personal life. It has been well documented. about his colourful personal life. It has been well documented. If it is just it has been well documented. If it isjust a it has been well documented. If it is just a colourful personal life, that in itself may not be an issue.
