Right now. Its a battle thatis want it . Right now. Its a battle that is played out across america. Civil rights gives they asking residents of their citizenship is attack on people of colour. The judge has got it a threat to the very foundation of us democracy. This is the question the Trump Administration wanted to see on next yea rs centres. Administration wanted to see on next years centres. Is this person a citizen of the united dates . The white house that it was necessary foran white house that it was necessary for an accurate national headcount, even though a question about citizenship hasnt appeared on a us census since 1950. Opponent citizenship hasnt appeared on a us census since 1950. 0pponent said it would reduce Response Rates in households with immigrants and minority groups. The Supreme Court justices said the administrations reason for including the question seemed contrived. Campaigners welcomed the surprise decision. Every Single Person in this country deserves to be counted, plain and simple. And today, thanks to the Supreme Court was my decision we will have an opportunity to do just that. The ruling is a blow to the Trump Administration, but not the end of the matter. Its been sent back to a lower court with the door left open for the white house to provide justification for the question. In a tweed, President Trump responded by saying he would try to delayed the census. He said it seems totally ridiculous that our government and indeed country, cannot ask a basic question about citizenship. Democrats say the question is politically motivated, since the census determines how much federalfunding since the census determines how much federal funding needs state receives. It would be a sad occurrence of people saw that and that im not going to be counted, because it means so much in terms of who we are as a nation. For now, the fight goes on. We need to hit the streets, we need to organise and we need to make sure that everybody gets down there because that is the original intent of the senses. Us constitution requires a census every ten years. In election year, the 2020 counts will be more contentious than ever. Peter bowes, bbc news. Staying with the Supreme Court. The us Supreme Court also ruled on the issue of gerrymandering, the practice where voting districts are re drawn in order to favour a political party. In a majority decision, the court ruled that the federal government does not have the Constitutional Authority to regulate state election maps. The ruling is based on a number of cases from North Carolina and maryland. Those who brought the cases fear the decision will lead to more manipulation of electoral boundaries after the 2020 census. Round two of the debate of democratic president ial hopefuls has just got under way in miami. On wednesday, millions watched as the first ten hoping to take on donald trump in 2020 debated live on tv. Another ten are battling it out today, among them key frontrunners joe biden and Bernie Sanders. Lets go live to miami and the bbcs jane 0brien. Jane, im guessing all eyes are on mr biden this evening . Interesting you should say that, duncan, because the first question has gone to Bernie Sanders who is his it great rival in this particular debate because he represents the Progressive Left leaning side of the party, whilejoe Progressive Left leaning side of the party, while joe biden Progressive Left leaning side of the party, Whilejoe Biden represents the more centrist side of the party. But Bernie Sanders has been asked a question and hes gone straight in with his politics saying that theres just too much wealth in the country in the wrong hands and that the structural flaws within the economy means that if he was president he would overhaul the whole thing. But pretty much sums up the divide in the democratic party. There are other Bernie Sanders side candidates who think that you need to blow up the system in order to fix it, and you have the more pragmatic, centrist candidates in the party like joe biden pragmatic, centrist candidates in the party likejoe biden who think that its perfectly possible to work with what you have and still make ends better for most americans. With what you have and still make ends betterfor most americans. So i think were already seeing the para meters think were already seeing the parameters of tonights debate clearly set. So thats the ideological divide, but theres also a bit ofa ideological divide, but theres also a bit of a generational one isnt there . Oh, a massive one. You got there . Oh, a massive one. You got the youngest candidate sitting on the youngest candidate sitting on the stage tonight. Shes in her 30s, andrew yang, the only Asian American in the debate, hes in early 40s. Andrew yang is hoping for a breakout moments and he certainly has enough supporters here calling themselves the yang gang. He is attracting a lot of buzz already. Peter footage age, he is one of the five frontrunners, but both of these two candidates represent the youth of the party. They are hoping to offer a fresh look, a fresh face, new ideas. And also inspire followers, inspire voters, give them something that they can get behind with enthusiasm, drawing a contrast against thejoe enthusiasm, drawing a contrast against the joe biden enthusiasm, drawing a contrast against thejoe biden who Everybody Knows because he was the Vice President and a lot of people just think he doesnt bring enough new things to the party and he could well be defeated because of that. Jane, tell us about kamala harris, the only African American woman taking part in this contest. How was he doing . With this you need to do this evening . She is another of the front runners, she is poling very well, she does have, likejoe biden, a legends of record from her time in california where she was attorney general and she has come under quite a lot of criticism for the legislation and sort of criminalisation laws that she adhered to that a lot of civil rights campaigners say actually led to the incarceration of African Americans. So there is a few things that she is going to have to defend. But she certainly attracting a lot of donors, gaining a lot of traction in the polls and tonight shell be wanting to increase on that momentum and perhaps show more of her personality because although these debates are about policy, there are also about letting americans get to know the character of the candidate that they might be voting for. All right, jane, will checkin voting for. All right, jane, will check in with you very soon to see how they are doing. But for now, thank you. World leaders are gathering in the japanese city 0saka for the g20 summit. In about an hours time theyll pose for the official family photo ahead of the official start of the summit. Trade wars, iran and Climate Change are all topics that are likely to dominate. Rupert Wingfield Hayes joins us now from 0saka. Lots of topics to discuss. What you think will dominate . Thats right, duncan, there are lots of topics on the agenda here and many that the host, shinzo abe would like to be seen host, shinzo abe would like to be seenin host, shinzo abe would like to be seen in the final communique. But the atmosphere is a g20 of low expectations, just because there is so Much Division between china, russia, japan, the United States and other countries about what youre going to that final communique. And also because this summit is also being overshadowed by the us china trade war. President s using being is here, President Trump is here, they are expected to meet tomorrow and the biggest hope for some sorts of positive thing to come out of this 620 positive thing to come out of this g20 meeting is for xijinping and President Trump to come up with some sort of truce in the trade war. So that the negotiators can get back to the table and work out the details and move forward. As he arrived here, President Trump was threatening to impose over 300 billion dollars worth of goods with fresh tariffs if he doesnt get what he wants from the chinese. That is hanging over all of this are the leaders need here today. And as President Trump was making his way there, he wasnt just President Trump was making his way there, he wasntjust taking aim at china, was he . He had messages for other leaders . Thats right. He fired off a number of tweets at various leaders that he is meeting with today, so do the indian Prime Minister in arranger modi, who he is meeting right now, he said he had imposed high tariffs on products in recent months and they had to be withdrawn immediately, to the german chancellor angela merkel, here used germany are freeloading from the United States in its defence and also to the japanese Prime Minister, the host, and supposedly mr trumps friend, he said if there was a war, that america was involved in, and would sit by and watch on a sony tv. Although, i have to say when he sat down with shinzo abe he was much more polite in their bilateral meeting. What about Climate Change, rupert . How much attention will that be getting in this summit . Well it supposed to be one of the big issues here and certainly the french president , emmanuel macron, who arrived in japan president , emmanuel macron, who arrived injapan yesterday had a meeting with the emperor and the Prime Minister in tokyo. He has been putting very, very hard for this g20 to have a commitment, a recommitment of the g20 members to the paris accords signed back in 2015. He said yesterday that he may not sign up to tomorrows declaration if it is not in their stop but we know already that us President Donald Trump is absolutely not omitted to the paris climate protocols and so it seems unlikely that there will be any agreement here. 0k, rupert. You very much. Thank you very much.

This man started killing at 15 and became a leader in his local area. He says of his old gang if his old gang ever caught him, hed get special treatment. They would deal with me in the worst way. They would bury me alive, then dig me up and kill me very slowly. And what would you say to the families of those you killed, do you ever think about them . Whatever i say, killed, do you ever think about them . Whateverl say, it wont conduct their dad. I have already left mothers without sons, people without others, cousins and friends.

Ben hunte, bbc news, Greenwich Village. In the womens world cup, england are through to the semi finals after a convincing display thursday evening against norway. The lionesses are the first team to progress into the tournaments last four. Colm harrison has this report. Its 2a years since norway were champions of the world, and 12 since they last reached the world cups last four. No surprise they were underdogs against an england side bidding to reach a second successive semi final. And this game was less than three minutes old when the team ranked three in the world took the lead. Jill scott slotting home the opening goal of the match. Ellen white was the width of a post away from making it 2 0, but she wasnt to be denied and with half time looming the england striker did double her sides lead. Shes now the tournaments joint top scorer with five goals. The semifinals were now insight. In sight. Early in the second half, a golden shot from lucy bronze made it 3 0, and it was now a long way back for norway. Theyd offered little throughout, although Lisa Marie Utland did force a goal line clearance out of steph houghton. England had the luxury of Nikita Parris missing from the penalty spot late on, as they sealed their place in the last four for the second world cup in a row. Colm harrison, bbc news. Stay with us on bbc news. Hello there. Thursday was a warm and a sunny day for most of us away from the east coast. But for scotland, wales, Northern Ireland, you saw your warmest day of the year so far. And todays looking pretty similar another dry and sunny one with the highest temperatures across the west. Thats because weve got High Pressure across the country drawing up this hot air from france across western areas. But for the east, youll notice the yellow colourss there, thats because weve still got more of an onshore breeze, but not as windy as it was on thursday either. Weve got a bit of a grey start across the east of the country, that cloud will burn back to the coast and most places will be dry and sunny. And the sun will have strength to it. Very high uv levels across most of the country, but especially across england and wales. And temperatures east west divide. Its going to be hot across western scotland. We could see one or two places reaching 30 degrees across the west, but 15 degrees or so across north sea coasts. The same too for wales, western england, a little bit fresher, though, further east with a bit more of an onshore breeze there. Not as windy as it was across the south west. Also worth noting, pollen levels will be high across the country, especially for england and wales. Now, as we head through friday night into saturday morning, it stays largely dry and i think the low cloud across the east will be kept at bay because we all start to pick up more of a southerly wind so that temperatures will rise further, and what will be noticeable is the humidity will rise. So that sets the scene for saturday. Its going to be a hot and a humid one for many, but in particular across england, and Eastern England as well. Now, if we look at the european heat wave, its expected to reach its peak this weekend across parts of spain, france and again into germany. Well be tapping into that heat, with temperatures perhaps reaching highs around 33 or 3a celsius across the south east, mainly for the london area. So southerly winds drawing this heat up. Plenty of sunshine across the eastern half of england. A weather front moving into scotland, Northern Ireland and around irish sea coasts will bring a drop in temperature and also the chance of a a few showers or thunderstorms. So a bit cooler here but very hot for england and wales. Highs of 32 degrees in london, but we could see 33 or 3a celsius, like i mentioned. During saturday night, this cold front spreads across the country. We lose those red hues and see something a little bit cooler and fresher pushing in off the atlantic. So temperatures could be 10 degrees down across south eastern areas compared to what we see on saturday, and therell be plenty of showers across the north west corner of the country. Some of these will be quite heavy, but plenty of sunshine too, with temperatures around the seasonal average thats the high teens in the north, and closer to mid 20s further south.
