More than a decade after ba naz mahmods death in a so called honour killing, her sister speaks out for the first time. The moment you choose to ignore actually what happened and not talk about it, you will never get past it. And 13 years on, we still havent had that conversation. Good morning. Welcome to bbc newsroom live. Riot police have used pepper spray and batons during clashes with protesters in hong kong overnight, on the 22nd anniversary of its handover from british to chinese rule. The protests are the latest against a law that would allow suspected criminals to be sent to Mainland China to facejustice. Lets have a look at the live pictures from the streets of hong kong. You can see the numbers are building, there is always a dispute on at that between the protesters and the police. This is the third enormous demonstration weve seen in hong kong in the past month. The organisers typically say the figures are aroundi organisers typically say the figures are around 1 million. They have not issued figures for today yet, we are still early in that protest and it will go on for much of the evening but almost inevitably new Police Figures are for that protest will be much lower than the organisers figures. Lets hear now from our correspondence on the ground. Weve seen protesters arriving from the march they began at the victoria street. Scenes right behind me, people chanting, this is the grip of pro democracy protesters that have been marching from Victoria Park annually. This is what they do it but this year it has taken a special symbolism and significance. All day throughout the day weve seen clashes between police and protesters right here on this main street of hong kong. You can see behind me the scenes between police and protesters is still tense. Right over there there is a stand off between riot police and pro democracy protesters. Earlier today some protesters, a small group of them, tried to get into the Legislative Council building by ramming a trolley through the glass windows, police pushed back and now the mood remains tense. In the past few minutes hundreds of people have arrived here on one of the main arterial roads in hong kong and that there is a sense of some jubilation in the air, this has been a very hard fought moment for many of the hong kong protesters. They want to show a symbol of solidarity, young people here applauding, waving pro democracy flags. A real image of defiance to the Hong Kong Government here that even though it has suspended that controversial extradition bills, for many people here that simply is not enough. Many of the young people we have spoken to say they want that bill com pletely to say they want that bill completely withdrawn and they want hong kongs chief executive carrie lam to resign and they want their fellow protesters who have been detained in some of the events over the past few weeks, they want them released. These protests have caught the attention of people all over the world and they come on the handover anniversary of hong kong to Mainland China from the uk. The conservative leadership candidate, jeremy hunt, is promising to set aside £20 billion to help the economy in the event of a no deal brexit. In a speech this morning hell say that his government would cover the costs of tariffs that would be imposed on the exports of the farming and fishing sectors to the eu. Meanwhile, his rival, borisjohnson has made a fresh pledge on Public Sector pay. Well, mr hunt says he will pledge £6 billion to the fishing and Farming Industries in the event of a no deal brexit war chest. The money would come from what he calls a no deal war chest cash the current chancellor Philip Hammond has earmarked for a brexit without an agreement with the eu. He will also promise to set up a no deal committee to make sure the government is ready to leave by 31st october. Meanwhile, his rival borisjohnson, says he plans to give Public Sector workers a fair pay rise and that the days of pay freezes were over. Hes also vowed to cut taxes if he becomes Prime Minister, predicting this would stimulate the economy, and increase government revenues. And on brexit, mrjohnson says he wants to negotiate a tariff free area with europe and that he doesnt want to leave without a deal. Lets speak to our assistant Political Editor, norman smith. Norman, where do you want to start . Why dont we start with money, since so much is being splashed about at the moment. We are getting a real sense both candidates seem to think pa rt sense both candidates seem to think part of the way to win the contest is make a load of spending pledges, you listed some but its worth going through them. Jeremy hunt, who will be speaking shortly, we know hes promised around 30 billion for a Corporation Tax cut, slashing its two irish levels, that will happen in one budget, won the emergency budget. He is also talking about taking nine out of ten shops from the high street out of Business Rates so they will not have to pay them at all. On top of that, he suggesting there should be an additional £6 billion set aside for farmers and the fishing industry because they would potentially face some whopping great tariffs if we left without a deal. Land farmers, exporting lamb face tariffs of 67 , potentially. He says we will set aside 6 billion for that. He also is promising to increase defence spending by 25 over five years, a cool 15 billion. He is also talking about writing off tuition fee loans for those graduates who go on to start businesses. He spoke a bit more cash for schools, more cash for social care. The list really does go on and on. Weve seen a tweet from the chancellor Philip Hammond saying, basically, this idea that they can fund it all by the so called £26 billion of headroom, that money, and its not really money, just additional Borrowing Capacity, is there to help out if there is a no deal brexit. If there is no deal there is no money for any of this. It is curious, we seem to be in of this. It is curious, we seem to beina of this. It is curious, we seem to be in a position where both main leadership contenders seem to be parking at the traditional tory values of trying to make the books balance and make ends meet and are just spending at the moment by basically borrowing more. You wonder why because it is not as if every voter votes in this selection we are about to have for tory leader and Prime Minister. Meanwhile, quite a lot of old style tories, they are muttering Jeremy Corbyn looks like a moderate co m pa res to corbyn looks like a moderate compares to these offers we are seeing. Thats a really good point. I doubt whether any of the tory voters will be swayed by proposal too, for example, put more money into schools or social care. The only issue thats going to get traction in this contest is brexit, lets be honest, it is the defining issue and, i suppose it is whatjeremy hunt or borisjohnson, theirfate suppose it is whatjeremy hunt or borisjohnson, their fate will be determined in this contest by that. Which is why we will hear from jeremy hunt in the next few minutes, hes been markedly toughening up his sta nce hes been markedly toughening up his stance on brexit and particulate no deal. 0ver stance on brexit and particulate no deal. Over the weekend, stance on brexit and particulate no deal. 0verthe weekend, he stance on brexit and particulate no deal. Over the weekend, he was suggesting he, like borisjohnson, he would not be paying 39 billion that theresa may promised to the eu, he would only hand over the cash we we re he would only hand over the cash we were legally obliged to hand over. He also quashed the idea of trying to reach any sort of agreement with labour, as theresa may had done, they would not do that. You sense he has repeatedly trying to toughen up his position. Saying yesterday if the eu clearly indicated they were ready to do a deal by the beginning of october he would prepare it for a no deal. Had not indicated they we re no deal. Had not indicated they were prepared to do a deal. Jeremy hunt trying to flex his biceps when it comes to brexit that, yes, he may bea it comes to brexit that, yes, he may be a former remain supporter but he will indeed take us out without their agreement. Which is why this morning his big pitch is an effective set out his plan for a no deal which is to set aside the 6 billion forfarming deal which is to set aside the 6 billion for farming and fishing industry but also hes talking about the no deal budget to try and help the no deal budget to try and help the economy in the event on an ordeal. He is going to talk a little bit about having a no deal Cobra Committee chaired by him as Prime Minister which would try to make sure all the different parts of government were cooperating. He is to set aside the 6 billion for farming and fishing industry but also hes talking about the no deal budget to try and help the economy in the event of no deal. Hes going to talk a little bit about having a no deal Cobra Committee chaired by him as Prime Minister which would try to make sure all the different parts of government were cooperating. He has also mooted the idea of a cobra Logistics Committee to make sure ports and airports continue to function smoothly. In the event of no deal. He spoke about using Emergency Powers to get prime planning laws. He is trying to put together a package he hopes will convince tory voters basically, dont mess with me when it comes to no deal, i am dead serious about it. Iam going no deal, i am dead serious about it. I am going to pose you for a minute. We are quickly going to look at two live sources. This is liam fox and his introducing jeremy hunt. Who is just about to give the speech we we re just about to give the speech we were mentioning a moment ago. Then let. Im just going to take you to another live source, its a little bit. There he is again. Thats obviously Boris Johnson bit. There he is again. Thats obviously borisjohnson and he is in sevenoaks this morning and as long as we can keep that short steady we will keep it running while we talk to norman. Give us a sense of the Campaign Events by the two rivals today and in the day coming up. Whats interesting, jeremy hunt has taken a much more formal approach to political events, big speech in front of journalist where political events, big speech in front ofjournalist where he can be quizzed and challenged. Later on he is doing a set piece interview with sky news, he was in the Andrew Marr Programme yesterday. Borisjohnsons tea m programme yesterday. Borisjohnsons team have had a gear change from the submarine days when you could not get hold of him. Now he is out and about, talking to voters on the hoof come off thats much more his favoured format. He likes engaging with people, he is comfortable at it and does it quite well. I think jeremy hunt is about to start speaking. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, thank you liam, thank you, dean, for having me here. Since the start of the campaign ive travelled more than 3000 miles across the uk come up than 3000 miles across the uk come up and down the country, meeting members, small businesses, having lots of fun, eating lots of food. Ive had fish and chips in peterhead, a balti in birmingham, green tea in devon, outright, next time with the jam and cream reversed. Most of all, as liam alluded to, ive enjoyed talking to and debating with members of the public about the changes i want to make as Prime Minister. As an entrepreneur, thats a new in four this morning, i want to fire up our economy, cut Corporation Tax and scrap Business Rates for thousands of high street companies. As a reformer, i want our next social mission to be to abolish illiteracy and ensure every young person has the skills they need to get a well paid job. As the son of a naval officer, as liam mentioned, iwant us officer, as liam mentioned, iwant us to walk to walk tall in the world with a decisive increase in defence spending so that britain continues to defend the values that we believe in. Before we make any of those changes, we have to do one thing above all else. We must leave the European Union. Uncertainty is bad for business, bad for politics and bad for our country. As one of the oldest democracies in the world, we must show the world that in this country it is the people and not the politicians who are the boss. As your Prime Minister, i will. Belief alone wont cut it. Rhetoric is not enough, this is about hard graft, focus and attention to detail, deal or no deal. That means every eventuality, every law or statutory instrument, every industry, every pa rt of instrument, every industry, every part of the uk. 0ne slip and we lose our leverage, our security and possibly even brexit itself. I will make us ready. Throughout the campaignl make us ready. Throughout the campaign i made it clear my preference is for us to leave with a better deal. 0ne preference is for us to leave with a better deal. One that addresses the problems with the existing deal and specifically the backstop, ensures we have a fully independent trade policy and allows us to design our own immigration system. I know with my experience in business and governments, i am the best placed candidate to get that better deal. But i also know renegotiation will not be easy. But it wont be impossible, either. With the parliamentary arithmetic that we face, securing a deal that can pass through parliament remains the quickest and safest way to deliver brexit. But what if the European Union refuses to budge . We need a comprehensive no deal plan. Because brexit is about more than slogans, more than belief, more than positive thinking, you cannot leave the eu on a wing and a prayer, you need a plan. Today im setting out my ten point plan. Firstly, on day one of my premiership i will order an immediate ramping up of no deal preparations. All Government Departments will be expected to act on the basis we are leaving without a deal on october the 315t. All august leave will be cancelled unless i have a signed letter from the relevant permanent secretary saying all preparations in the department are on time and on track. Secondly, a no deal cabinet task force with similar powers to cobra will be set up and chaired by me. It will be set up and chaired by me. It will have three objectives. Firstly, follow u p will have three objectives. Firstly, follow up any areas where government preparations are insufficient. Secondly, agree and publish Financial Support for industries affected by tariff changes. Thirdly, to approve infrastructure changes, including those that may not be completed by the 315t of october, such as a dramatic expansion of container capacity, changes which are none the less a very important. I need to be started immediately. Thirdly, a new political negotiating team will be convened with members of the erg, dup, members of the one nation group, welsh and scottish conservatives, led by the brexit secretary, and supported at an official level by crawford falconer. You will be joined by top experts from around the world. Tasked with producing an alternative exit deal based on the alternative arrangements proposals. That can both command a majority in the house of commons and address seriously and forensically legitimate eu and irish concerns about the irish border and the integrity of the single market. This plan will be published by the end of august. In order to avoid the ta ke end of august. In order to avoid the take it or leave it approach which would be fatal to negotiations, eye and the brexit secretary will engage with european leaders and European Commission during july and august to do ourvery commission during july and august to do our very best to come to an agreed way forward. I will also establish, fifthly, a national Logistics Committee led by the department for transport to produce a plan to keep goods flowing in and out of the uk in the event of a no deal. This will include an assessment of any Emergency Powers required to ensure ports and airports will work in a coordinated way nationally. Number six, the treasury will start preparations on a no deal brexit budget to be delivered the first Week Parliament is back in september. This will include my existing policies of cutting Corporation Tax to 12. 5 , increasing the annual investment allowa nce increasing the annual investment allowance up to £5 million and taking 90 of high street businesses out of rates, which i will introduce in any circumstance. Number seven, hmt will also produce a no deal relief programme, this will include a£6 relief programme, this will include a £6 billion fund for the fishing and farming sectors, who exports to europe, to ease transition out of the eu whilst honouring our international obligations. It will also consider what relief other industries will require. We will pursue the governments existing approach to tariffs, number eight, balancing the benefits of liberalisation for consumers with appropriate exceptions to safeguard Vulnerable Industries and protect the prosperity and well being of communities across every part of the uk. Number nine, i will provide the necessary finance to support the development of Custom Solutions which can help deliver our cast iron guarantee we will never put up a ha rd guarantee we will never put up a hard border on the island of ireland. And numberten, hard border on the island of ireland. And number ten, following the vote for the new plan in the house of commons, i will then allow three weeks for negotiations with the eu. As Prime Minister, i will make a judgment on the 30th of septemberas to make a judgment on the 30th of september as to whether there is a realistic chance of a new deal being agreed that can pass through the house of commons. If myjudgment and the judgment of my cabinets is that there is a deal to be done, i will seek to conclude the negotiations and pass a new meaningful full of out with any necessary legislation in the house of commons before the end of october. If myjudgment is there is no deal to be done, i will immediately cease all discussions with the eu and the focus of the whole countrys mission on a no deal preparations. One thing i will not negotiate on its citizens rights. To put the millions of eu citizens who made the uk their home, to put them all at ease, i can reconfirm to them all at ease, i can reconfirm to them that their rights in the uk will be protected whatever the outcome. This ten point plan gives is the best chance of getting a deal but also ensures we are prepared if we do not. If the commission engages in good faith and negotiations are going well, i dont believe we should in the work progress made and throw away that deal for the sake of an arbitrary deadline. With a deal done billions more will be available to invest in economic and social missions ive set out and we should welcome that. I want to be Crystal Clear with members of the conservative party, with my parliamentary colleagues and with the European Union, if there is no engagement on this deal, if it is apparent commission is simply not interested in negotiating, if there is no willingness to tackle the shortcomings of the backstop and if there is no immediate prospect of a deal that can get through parliament, then there will be no kicking the can down the road and we will intensify and finalise our preparations to leave without a deal. From the start of my premiership, i will work on the basis we are leaving on the 315t of october with or without a deal. Unless the commission changes its position. No deal is not my preferred destination but if a withdrawal deal is simply not on the cards, then the only way to fulfil the democratic mandate of the referendum is to leave without a deal which is what we will do. In any negotiation you need leveraged. Pa rt of any negotiation you need leveraged. Part of ourare any negotiation you need leveraged. Part of our are showing we have a plan to ensure we succeed as a country through a no deal exit from the eu and we are willing to use that plan if we cannot get an a cce pta ble that plan if we cannot get an acceptable deal. I urge any colleagues thinking of blocking a no deal brexit to reflect that you may in fact be making it harder to get in negotiated exit by giving the eu misplaced confidence that we will give ground and ultimately increasing the chance that we leave without a deal. I also urge others to be clear with people about the facts. There is no implementation period without a deal. There is no recourse to gat24 without the agreement of the other side. You cannot do a trade deal with yourself. The chances of no deal, instead of being 1 million to one, are real and we must prepare. You have to do those preparations if you are to make no deal a credible threat, detailed preparations to help industry with any pressure because of new tariffs they would face. Detailed plans to address the additional costs and hassle of bureaucracy and export processes in particular for smaller businesses. Detailed plans for support for the fishing and farming communities to ensure these industries which form such an important part of our National Life remain competitive. While we are committed to open trade we will not be naive or careless of the legitimate defence of our industries, including those which have played such a vital role in our nations story. We will develop support funds to provide direct assistance to those most in needs. We spentjust assistance to those most in needs. We spent just over £1 assistance to those most in needs. We spentjust over £1 trillion bailing out the banks after the financial crisis. If we did it for the bankers why wouldnt we do it for the fishermen and farmers as well . The plan ive set out today will either resolve the key issues or show how they will be resolved. It would include a plan to continue to work towards a zero tariff, zero quote or trade agreement with the eu and find specific solutions to the irish border challenges that respect the belfast agreement which remain absolutely committed. It would involve one of the largest fiscal and regulatory stimuli the country has seen in decades and it would mean other tax and spending commitments will have to wait. If you are the sheep farmer in shropshire on the fishermen i talk to in peterhead or the factory manager i met in kidderminster, my message is simple, i know you face uncertainty, if we have to leave the eu without a deal, i hear you and i will mitigate the impact of no deal brexit on you, your familys annual businesses. You will have to change your business but i guarantee you will get the support you need to do so and we will ensure no family, no community is left behind. In the end, ive always said britain will flourish regardless of the way we leave the eu. But we need to be realistic about the Short Term Impact of no deal and i am prepared to step in and help smooth those difficulties. Without the right Prime Minister and the right plan, brexit isjust a Prime Minister and the right plan, brexit is just a wing Prime Minister and the right plan, brexit isjust a wing and a prayer. And we can do better than that, we need a Prime Minister for all weathers, one who will work tirelessly to get a deal, but also put in the hard yards preparing for no deal. A Prime Minister willing to walk away but a Prime Minister who will give negotiations a chance and put in place a proper strategy to ensure they succeed. Who will fight ha rd ensure they succeed. Who will fight hard for the best brexit deal, sure a new knowledge are a great country has always flourished best when trusting in the instincts of its great people. Thank you very much. Applause thank you. Now weve got the really fun but starting with laura. Thank you very much. For years the tories have been telling the public and the opposition that you cannot just splash money arounds and you have to be careful with taxpayers in the countrys cash but you and your arrival at splashing around all sorts of mythical cash even in the event of no deal. Are you willing to junk the torys reputation for being careful with the countrys money and, secondly, you said you want to give negotiations a chance but on whose planet can you get a renegotiated deal in three weeks . First of all, let me answer your question about fiscal responsibility. I am question about fiscal responsibility. Iam new question about fiscal responsibility. I am new cabinet minister who has been in government and had to make the most painful cuts in public spending across Public Services, were all of us felt the pain of what was happening very personally. Ive walked hospitals in the nhs what ive known they needed more money and not been able to give it until i negotiated that big extra funding increase. The only reason i was able to negotiate that extra money because we took the painful decisions and put the economy back on its feats. So we will never throw that fiscal responsibility away because it is essential to our prosperity. As a result, we have built up headroom around £26 billion of headroom which makes it possible to make the commitments im making today whilst still sticking to our plans to reduce the deficit and reduce our National Debt as a proportion of gdp. This is a critical moment for businesses up and down the country. It is also important that the eu knows that we will do what it takes to make a success of a no deal brexit, we will not blink as a country, that no deal brexit will not be an opportunity for them to successfully turn the screws on our country. Making these preparations is the best way of ensuring we get the deal i think eve ryo ne ensuring we get the deal i think everyone wants. You have said you could do it in three weeks, is that correct . |j you have said you could do it in three weeks, is that correct . I said i would start engaging with the European Union straightaway, throughout august. Then, when we have published our plan for a deal that we think will get through parliament by the end of august, we will start formal negotiations in september. But this will not be something that the European Union are seeing for the first time. But, yes, there is a hard deadline and what i have set. By the end of september, i come as Prime Minister, will make a judgment as to whether there is a realistic prospect of a deal that can get through parliament in the short term, and if my judgment is that that is not the case, talks will stop and we will put our heads down and focus on no deal. Paul. Hello, foreign secretary. I will stand up for the camera. You might be standing in front of the camera. Sorry i will sit down. There are two cameras, it is all very complex. As a member of the government, for years you have believed that the response to the financial crisis is to spend less. Now you are talking about walking into a financial crisis and spending more. And your efforts not to sound like continuity may, do you not think you sound more like comrade corbyn . Well, Jeremy Corbyn and his collea g u es corbyn . Well, Jeremy Corbyn and his colleagues have made this worse, the worst financial crisis we have faced since the second world war. Without that responsibility of the tony blair government we would not have had two had these austerity years that we are beginning to come out. When you an economic shock, it is basic economics that you find that support the industries that are affected. It is temporary support, but it allows them to change their Business Models to adapt. It means that they do not have to lay people off, you would hope. So, it is the responsible thing to make those preparations. It is the best way to make sure that we actually get a deal as the European Union see that we are deadly serious about leaving the eu and we are prepared to do what it takes, including very, very compressive no deal preparations. Do you accept that the response is to spend more . My response to economic shockis spend more . My response to economic shock is that chancellors from all parties have made over the years, which is to allow some listening in the system to support businesses that are most directly affected. But what these do is allow businesses the time and a breathing space to change their Business Models and develop their Business Models so that they can survive. So, we will leave it there and bring in our Political Editor, norman smith. What did you make of it, norman . We talked about the extra cash that the Jeremy Norman . We talked about the extra cash that thejeremy hunt is prepared to spend, but the most striking thing he said was a huge toughening up in his language around no deal, suggesting they will be no more kicking the can down the road, saying that he hopes to get a new deal, the outlines of one set up by august. He will then go into negotiations with the eu in september and if they have basically not said they are ok with that and prepared to negotiate on that basis, then from the beginning of october he will begin the process of preparing to leave without any sort of agreement. Quite clearly, i think jeremy hunt has been stung by the accusations from team johnson that he does not have a deadline, he will continue to kick the can down the road and he wants to quash that idea, which is why he has come up with the sort of provisions for pushing through no deal, suggesting, for example, that Civil Servants, forget about your august holidays if you do not have a no deal in place, you do not have a no deal in place, you will not be having a holiday. There will be an emergency budget, extra cash for vulnerable sectors of the economy. He will take charge of a corpora Style Committee to bring together different Government Departments. Corporate style. They will make sure that airports and ports are able to operate. In other words, the message from jeremy hunt is that i am serious about no deal, i am serious about no deal on october the 31st, i am not messing and it is clearly designed to get around the very winding charge from borisjohnson around the very winding charge from Boris Johnson that around the very winding charge from borisjohnson that basically around the very winding charge from Boris Johnson that basically the around the very winding charge from borisjohnson that basically the sky is theresa may in trousers, it will just be delay followed by delay. Jeremy hunt has said no, if the eu have not clearly indicated by the beginning of october that they are prepared to negotiate on my new deal, then we will be leaving without an agreement on october the sist. Hang on, norman. You mentioned Boris Johnson i want to have a look at what he has said this morning. Jeremy hunt, speaking between the lines, not naming his rival, but seeing that belief and rhetoric will not cut it. You will not be doing this on a wing and a prayer, unspokenjibes against this on a wing and a prayer, unspoken jibes against his rival. So, what about borisjohnson . He has beenin so, what about borisjohnson . He has been in kent this morning and just been in kent this morning and just been talking about his spending proposals. We have put on a very carefully costed prog ra m me proposals. We have put on a very carefully costed programme and the key thing that we want to invest in is education and levelling up spending on education around the country, i think that is something thatis country, i think that is something that is widely supported in parliament and across schools in the country, where children we have about 4000 in primary school, 5000 in secondary school and people believe that that is unjust. We should give kids the start that they need. There is 22 billion quids worth of headroom, the money is available, but we think there is room to make some sensible tax cuts as well and we will be doing that. Public sector rises . I think we need to have decent pay and the Public Sector, absolutely. Can you make concrete commitments for the welfare sector . It is very important. I used to run large Public Sector organisations in london and was very proud as to what we did. It is very important that when you are in charge of the great public service, whether it is the police or transport, you must make sure, local government, you must make sure that you understand the needs and that they require, the only way to get they require, the only way to get the reform you sometimes need in Public Services is to be their champion and supporter. So, with the police, for instance, we were able to keep numbers high and keep investment going into police, because we championed them and believed them. At the same time, we made big reforms and big reductions in expenditure, because i got behind the police. We are going to make sure that we properly fund our public service. And i will tell you, we will do it by looking after as well the great enterprise economy of this country. Jeremy corbyn and the labour party would do absolute destruction to the private sector in this country, and they would put a tax on virtually everything, from Corporation Tax to inheritance tax, to income tax, financial transaction tax. They would even put a tax on gardens. In sevenoaks Garden Centre, here, i could point out thatJeremy Corbyns deprivations, it wasnt sevenoaks but corbyns deprivations, it wasnt sevenoa ks but it corbyns deprivations, it wasnt sevenoaks but it was for oakes if you are lucky, as a result of what he would do to the uk economy and to the private sector. That is the terrible mistake that we can make. We must look after the enterprise economy and invest more in the Public Services as a result. Four oaks. Where do the lorries go intent in the event of no deal . Where there is not correct paperwork they cannot continue theirjourney. Where exactly are the lorries going to do . Does this become a lorry parked . fi is vital that we get ready for a no deal exit but i would stress again and again, i do not believe that thatis and again, i do not believe that that is where we will end up . What happens is we will get through it and what is vital is we will have a very high state of preparedness. At what you cannot do is keep saying that we will have a deadline on october the 31st and then say, actually, it is not really a deadline at all and we could delay beyond that. If you look at what happened on march the 29, a huge amount of work was done. The country did get ready and then, of course, we failed to get out, we failed to get out on april the 8th, add a lot of the preparations sank back down again. What is now vital is that we commit to coming out on october the sist, commit to coming out on october the 31st, we mean it, we get ready for a no deal outcome and we prepare, and that goes for the lorries in kent as well. Boris johnson there. Let us go back to norman. So, everybody is talking about preparations for no deal. Yes, although, ithought deal. Yes, although, i thought it interesting that borisjohnson seem to spend a lot of his time attacking Jeremy Corbyn. That is interesting because we have heard from the likes of chris patten and others this morning saying that borisjohnson boss mike approach to public spending is not1 million miles of that from Jeremy Corbyn, and that he is talking about borrowing and spending more to reverse tory cuts in areas like schools and policing, and perhaps he has been stung by that. The other thing is that it was interesting in trying to nailjeremy hunt as to whether he was serious about nailing down a deadline, that he would just be like theresa may. And jeremy hunt has been trying to put his point of view that he is not delaying. Both men will be getting questions as to how they plan to fund these ideas. Phillip hammond tweeted this morning, this £26 billion of headroom, it is not money down the back of a sofa, it is additional Borrowing Capacity that we have as a nation. It means that we have as a nation. It means that we have a room to borrow more within our existing fiscal targets. It is not some secret pot of cash that the chancellor has been keeping back. Secondly, Philip Hammond making the point, that headroom is available to mitigate no deal, it would be entirely eaten up by no deal, which means that both men still have to a nswer means that both men still have to answer the question, where are you getting the money from . Norman, thank you so much. And on that, we will talk to the institute for fiscal studies shortly about where that money might come from. Now we will speak to the National Federation of first mens organisation, and barry, we have been hearing about the potential beneficiaries of the fishing Industry Based on a promise from jeremy hunt. Is not you would welcome . Well, i think we is that something you would welcome . Well, we have to always be aware of what politicians are saying when they are campaigning. What this does is underline the fact that fishing has a very high political priority, not just for the conservative party but right across the political spectrum, and that is because it reflects the very bad deal that the uk fishing has had under the common fisheries policy. So, ithink has had under the common fisheries policy. So, i think this kind of pledges very welcome. I think there are probably three aspects that we must take into account. One is the damage that tarus might do. The second is the nontariff barriers that any no deal situation. Getting perishable commodities like shellfish into europe. The third one is fishing rights. And any no deal scenario, fishing rights, i think, isa scenario, fishing rights, i think, is a different story because the uk would automatically under International Law become an independent coastal state and would be able to control access to our own waters. That is the mix that we have to think. I mean, getting us through a different and difficult transitional phase on markets would be very welcome and i think we need that kind of support. There is this other dimension on fishing which does not really apply to other sectors of the economy, which is the fishing rights, and i think that was the much more positive story. Well, i was going to ask you, it is very intriguing, you can tell me if i am expressing this wrong, but it suggest that in some ways the fishing industry in the uk has seen itself as Collateral Damage any wider relationship and you feel that now in the event of a no deal you might have more control over your lives that you did before or in the event of a deal . The key figure is that the uk fleets the key figure is that the europeans fresh six times more in our waters than we do in their waters. We need to address that straightaway. We believe that the you k fleet will fish in eu waters but we need to have a conversation about the quota shares issue. We have a very bad outcome under the common fisheries policy. The most extreme example is English Channel called, where the uk share is 9 , the french share is 84 , that is a kind of rebalancing that we aspire to very quickly as we leave the eu. Thank you very much for joining leave the eu. Thank you very much forjoining us. We have left the scenes in hong kong because of the uk political developments. Lets go back to a live shot. We have one outside the main building, the building in which the Legislative Assembly of hong kong resides and has its meetings. It is not a fully Democratic Organisation which is what the protesters were on about five years ago, the umbrella protesters. There you can see the protests are gathering and those people in hard hats and plastic wrapped around their arms in many cases, have actually been dismantling some of the building in order to get in and make their protest inside. These are not the scenes the Hong Kong Government or the Chinese Government would have wished to see on what was supposed to bea wished to see on what was supposed to be a day of celebration marking the 22nd anniversary of the handover of what was a british colony to china. But as you will be so aware over the past month, there has been growing angerfrom over the past month, there has been growing anger from some citizens in hong kong, enormous demonstrations againstan hong kong, enormous demonstrations against an extradition bill which would have allowed some hong kong citizens charged with crimes to be extradited to Mainland China. And we have seen a lot of criticism, both from people in hong kong, we have seen an apology from the chief executive of hong kong, for as sheep ordid executive of hong kong, for as sheep or did not listening hard enough to the citizens. She has suspended that bill but as you can see, the protests are continuing, and that is for two reasons, one being because the protesters wanted ability to be scrapped altogether rather than just suspended, and the other is that they are very angry with police over they are very angry with police over the way the handle to a previous demonstration in which they were dubbed rioters with many arrested and in which they alleged that Police Violence was at the heart of the problem. So, as you can see, things are really heating up in hong kongin things are really heating up in hong kong ina things are really heating up in hong kong in a way that is dangerous to everybody involved. We will keep an eye on those pictures. I also need to bring you a piece of breaking news on iran. Irans storage of enriched uranium has exceeded the limit offered under the nuclear deal that you remember was made in 2015 between iran and several Major International powers. The americans, of course, walked out of the deal one year ago and since then they have imposed sanctions. It has been difficult for the other signatories to keep the economic relationship going. The economy of iran is suffering and iran itself has exceeded the uranium enrichment targets that were allowed under that deal made in 2015. Much more on that later. But let us catch up now with our headlines this morning on bbc news. Thousands of people take to the streets in hong kong protesting against plans to allow extraditions to Mainland China. A blanket of ice in mexico a freak storm leaves hailstones piled up to 1. 5 metres high, damaging homes and trapping drivers in their cars.

Britains Manufacturing Activity fell at the fastest rate for more than six years injune. Previous months saw firms stockpiling in case of a no deal brexit. Theyre now using that excess stock instead of buying in new products. The purchasing Managers Index a measure of factory activity showed a reading of 48 forjune. Anything below 50 indicates a decrease in activity. Junes figure is worse than most economists expected. Brent crude oil prices are up more than 2 today. This is ahead of the opec producers Cartel Meeting in vienna. Saudi arabia, russia and iraq backed an extension of supply cuts for another six to nine months. Opec has been reducing oil output since 2017 to prevent prices from sliding amid a weakening Global Economy and soaring us output. Monday morning maybe you treated yourself to a night out over the weekend and youre checking the credit card today. How much did you spend . Well, the average is £70. And thats a fifth more than last year. The figure is based on a survey of 2,300 people. It also found a change in what people are doing for fun and spending their money on the pub is still where almost a quarter of us spend our going out money, but its not as popular as it was. Peter marks is chief exectutive of the deltic group, whove put together the research. Whats driven the rise in spending . People want to go out and have fun but they do not want to waste their ha rd but they do not want to waste their hard earned cash ks, so they look for experiences, a special birthday, a stag night, and so on. It shows that going out is here to stay, i am delighted to say. As an operator of the venue, i am sure you would say that. Pubs, not quite as popular as they were, why do you think that is . Iam they were, why do you think that is . I am surprised by that. Sometimes these things do throw up surprises. Over the last 11 surveys that has been shown. We suspect it is to do with cinemas becoming more popular, and maybe there were better films on, but there is no question at all that the growth in transport and cinema admission income has been the highest of the growth spends that we have seen. So, subtle changes all the time. The pup is still the most popular, were not suggesting they are going out of fashion, just that other things seem to building nicely. Did the survey shed any light on how often people are going out and how long they are going out for when they do . 4. 5, five hours on average, that has been static for many years. They are going out a little less often but 55 still going out once a week. That number has been creeping down a little, if anything. You mention the cinema, it seems to be claiming more of our pounds as it were, and that is interesting given the rise of streaming services and how easy it is to watch films at home. Yes, i was surprised by that, but i think if blockbuster films are wrong, people will want to go. Cinema operators are sat in between, hoping that people will release great films. In many respects, it is out of their control, but they have some fantastic facilities and they themselves have massively improved themselves have massively improved the experience. Of course, it is all about experience, going out is about the experience economy, whether it is capped at celtics night clubs, cinema or bowling. Bowling has had some changes, it is simple and easier to do. It is about experience and entertainment, people want to be entertained and sitting at home at the end of the day, you can do that any time, but people still want a night out. Deltics nightclubs. Thank you for that. In other business stories weve been following. Network rail wants to buy part of british steel, which was put into compulsory liquidation in may after running out of money. Network rail is the state owned Railway Infrastructure company. It has bid for british steels Rail Services business which welds, finishes and stores rails for the uks train network. The deadline for bidders to put in offers for all or part of the troubled firm was last night. There will be more Business News later. Yes, sorry to interrupt you, ben, but Cliff Richard is speaking. Let us hear what he has to say. I had trouble remembering whether i was born then. It was such a long time ago. As it happens, i am innocent of what was alleged but it took two years until the investigation concluded with no charge. I do not think people realise what it is like to have an accusation made when you know that you are not guilty of this. In total i spent i suppose for years, because even though the police had agreed that they had made a big mistake two yea rs into that they had made a big mistake two years into this, i do not think i slept correctly for almost four yea rs, slept correctly for almost four years, maybe three hours each night, that would be a good night. I think it is because, and paul would back me up on this, if you have something happen, if you were guilty, remember that scene, it is a fair cop, golf, the guilty people recognise that they did it and somehow or another it must be easier for them to do it and deal with it. But when you know that you did not do it, ijust felt that you did not do it, ijust felt that there was this hole that i could not get out of. Although i had support, fantastic support this whole time, the public support was very real and obvious, i still had to go to bed at night and think, what is happening to me . I do not know how to change this or ended. The further two years was in fact, and it took a lot of money, to pursue a civil privacy claim until trial and successful conclusion. The case confirmed that every person has a reasonable expectation of privacy in relation to Police Investigations and searches. And, of course, during that four year period, i felt i had been hung out to dry, to be honest with you. And we must be honest with each other. We must be honest with ourselves. This is not an easy thing for us to deal with. We also find it difficult to believe that people can be evil enough to tell an absolute lie about an innocent person, and thatis lie about an innocent person, and that is really basically what we are trying to get rid of. That my reputation, it seemed to me at that stage, was an absolute tartars. What happens when the story first broke, i spoke with friends of mine who are journalists, and i said, well, how long would it take that story to break, three or four long would it take that story to break, three orfour hours . One of them said, it was a friend of mine, she said, darling, think seconds. And i thought, seconds, in seconds, everywhere i have been on the planet had heard the story, whether it was australia, new zealand, southeast asia, holland, denmark, sweden, italy, spain, all over britain. My name went out with this allegation all over attached to it. Can i get over it . I am now past it and i am on tour having the most wonderful time. When i ever get over it . I cannot see how any individual, particularly with the way that the internet functions, there are people on there that still believe on the stupid saying there is no smoke without fire. I know that some of you have been to concerts because you have been to concerts because you have been to concerts because you have been to mine. Many of you if not all of you have been to concerts, and you know darn well that there is no fire backstage but you will see it filled with smoke. That adage must be dumped, i think. I think professionally i have been very fortu nate, i think professionally i have been very fortunate, the public in britain were supportive. I remember coming out of my house after two weeks of having the press surrounded, my gate looked like it had been splashed with yellow. There was nobody there so i went down. It was nobody there so i went down. It was covered in yellow ribbons with good thoughts and love, and it was a huge thing for me to actually been back on that. So, despite no charges being brought against me, and despite winning my privacy case, i am sure there are some people who still believe in that stupid adage of no smoke without fire. Its funny, i didnt realise how much it had affected me. I can tell you that within six months of the allegation i had shingles all over my head and my face. Unfortunately i took a selfie of myself because i could not believe that it was happening and not able to sleep and stuff like that. When i came out of the court case, i had one, i had won my case hands down, but i felt no jubilation. I did not punch the air asi jubilation. I did not punch the air as i came out. I looked at myself on the tv and i thought, oh, my god. God i do not rememberfeeling that bad. But when i looked at myself i was gaunt, i did not look 40 years. It was a terrible, terrible time. The reason i could not feel jubilation because what i felt was 100 relief, and in my mind i was starting to work this thing about how do we stop other innocent people. And remember, this is not just paul and mick, there are hundreds of thousands of other people, i got lots of letters, and i know you did, from people who have spent time in prison. Unfortunately their wives believe them and they had to leave the country. We will a nswer had to leave the country. We will answer questions shortly, as soon as i have finished. Remember what you are saying. We will take questions after, thank you. So this could have been avoided as far as i am concerned. My name being publicised and all of that. Yes, there would a lwa ys and all of that. Yes, there would always have had to have been a police investigation. If someone makes an accusation, it has to be checked. I have thought about that, they should check the accuser. My accuser was very they should check the accuser. My accuser was very confused, he did not know what Football Ground it had happened and whether it was 1988 or 83. It was very confusing for me as to how we had got to the point of being in Court Dealing with something that came from a dubious source. So if i had not been named, we could probably have done this in fraction of the time, the whole investigation could have been done and over. Today, our aim is to start the process of rebalancing the criminal Justice System the process of rebalancing the criminalJustice System in relation to sexual allegations. We are campaigning to change the law to provide for anonymity for suspects in relation to sexual allegations u nless in relation to sexual allegations unless and until that person is charged, except of course in truly exceptional circumstances. There are times when a judge will have to overturn that because of someone is a known serial rapist or a murderer and running free, you must be one to stay away. So that did not always happen. The stigma of a false allegation sticks and we must readd ress allegation sticks and we must readdress the balance. So, today we are launching a parliamentary petition and we are seeking the support of the public and yours, too. We need 100,000 signatures to attempt to enter the gross injustice of naming innocent suspects in sexual cases and also not to interrupt something that is really important to us. The proposed reform is fairand important to us. The proposed reform is fair and just. Help, important to us. The proposed reform is fairandjust. Help, please important to us. The proposed reform is fair and just. Help, please come help us to rebalance a system that seems to have gone astray, please sign the petition online. That is a plea to you as well as to the public. Konta thank you for that moving address and will ask Paul Gambaccini to address us. No one loves a country as someone who has chosen to live in it. I was not born here, i came here to study at the worlds finest university. I remained to broadcast for the worlds finest radio services. I came to think these buildings behind me were the mother of parliaments and this country was the most humane country in the world. I recommend it to my friends in america that they come to live here. Can you imagine my dismay when i was betrayed by the Law Enforcement agencies of this country . Being arrested on a preposterous allegation is one thing. But having that arrest publicised is another. While i was still in the Charing Cross Police Station being questioned, every relative i have in the world was approached by a member of the british media. My brother in his apartment in new york, my two female cousins in their different connecticut cities living under different surnames. My brother in switzerland, my in laws in a norwich village, my husband at home across the river. They were all approached before i even got home. Talk about revealing identity. They did not deserve to be hit over the head with a sledgehammer like that, nor did my neighbours, those who had to live in my building with a tne of press. And the closure of the side doors to keep the press out. And my beloved listeners, of course, who were thwarted for a year when my employer took me off the air without ever asking what it was all about. It hurt so many people as well as the person who is falsely accused. Four years person who is falsely accused. Four years ago person who is falsely accused. Four years ago when i testified at the Home Affairs Select committee, they came out with a recommendation not only for bail reform but for anonymity before charge in sexual offe nce anonymity before charge in sexual offence cases. The head of the metropolitan police endorsed that same anonymity and a Public Opinion poll showed the people of this country also agree. Since then, parliamentary time has been mostly spent on brexit, the oxygen has been drawn out of the room, so what we hope to do with this petition which can be accessed on google through the simple words petition anonymity Sexual Offences, is to make sure this type of travesty does not happen again. It does not help wronged persons happen again. It does not help wronged persons to have false accusations and, indeed, as ive revealed today it was only because i appeared on the lorraine show and panorama, defending wronged women against he who can still not be named, that i was accused. A viewer turned to his fiancee and said, how dare they say that about jimmy savile when he did that to me. It was news to her. When i was arrested it was news to me because id never known him before. When i testified, cliff called me from barbados. Only in the modern era can somebody in barbados watch parliamentary tv. He said, there has been bail reform as a result of your case. I want any form as well to make this experience worthwhile and thats anonymity before charge. Thats what were asking for. Weve become magnets. People who are still going through the system and do send many e mails and letters and we know the torment continues. Ourjob is not yet finished and it will not be until we change this law. Please help us, as cliff said, and please help me, it helped me to love this country as much as i once did. Thank you. Thank you very much. We will take some questions now. Clive. Every right thinking person would condemn the kind of false allegations that were levelled at you, but some of those people will also have deeply held concerns that genuine victims may not come forward , genuine victims may not come forward, victims who have suffered trauma, may be at the hands of someone who exercises power and influence over them but they may not come forward if there is anonymity from the first stage of the investigation until charge. Weve all thought this through many times, weve not come here on armoured, we are armoured with debates and thoughts. If you are charged it means the police have some evidence that they think they can prosecute you with. So you are charged, how long does it take . Sometimes a person charged may not go to court for two, three, four or five years so often there still the opportunity. Its a balance that at the moment does not suit because my name is plastered everywhere and therefore lots of people think no smoke without fire business, maybe he is guilty. We feel all we are doing is having a compromise, who changed magna carta, king john said every single one of us, even today, are innocent unless Proven Guilty in are innocent unless Proven Guilty in a court of law. Our case is a compromise, its saying come part way. Lets have this anonymity until charged and then people can come forward. They can come forward after charge or application can be made to a judge in exceptional circumstances. The reform is a balanced reform, as cliff eloquently said. Thank you. Can you speak up. We know serial sex offender sometimes of patterns of behaviour and during an arrest period, as you said yourself, you we re period, as you said yourself, you were under the rest period for two years and during that period sometimes. Sorry, years and during that period sometimes. Sorry, you were never arrested but you were under suspicion, there was an investigation for two years and during that period sometimes other people do come forward. Perhaps the strongest argument against this is Something Like the john war boys case. To his victims but his victims would not seek the justice they deserve. That type of incident would be the type that would form an application toa type that would form an application to a judge so thats why this is balanced. Its pretty much the same as been asked. Joshua. Why confine this to see the Sexual Offences and why confine this to the period leading up to charge . Surely the logic of your argument is that should apply to all offences and. What we are doing is seeking a reform to the law as it was in 1976. People forget this law provided for anonymity for rape suspects in 1976. It was repealed in 1988. It was purely in relation to sexual offe nces purely in relation to Sexual Offences and Sexual Offences have an awful stigma which sticks and youve heard it from them and you know it sticks and it sticks on the intranet. Thats what this campaign is all about, achieving fairness and balance. Thank you. Can we have. We have to take into consideration everything. Can we please have this woman removed. Can we please have this woman removed. You go first and then you, madam. You go first and then you, madam. You know their names, how about picking a question from a member of the public . And then you, madam. One, two, three. We are here because. Talking about whether this should go for other cases, ive not been accused of stealing or cheating or anything, ive been accused of a sexual offence that never took place. Obviously the only thing we are able to talk about. I dont see why it shouldnt go further. Why shouldnt it . We will leave Cliff Richard and Paul Gambaccini and their support team there. As you heard, very impassioned defence of their case for changing the law, as they put it, to rebalance the criminal Justice System. They put it, to rebalance the criminalJustice System. They are mounting that petition today. They wa nt mounting that petition today. They want parliamentarians and the public to sign it to make suspects in cases such as there anonymous until the point where Police Charged him with an actual offence which of course in the case of Paul Gambaccini and sir Cliff Richard, never happen. We welcome back maybe when we get our Legal Correspondent on that story but we will take another look at hong kong right now because it still goes on, that huge protest on the streets marking the anniversary of the handover of hong kong from the uk to china and also very tense down there. Government headquarters, where the assembly sits, we saw earlier some of the protesters actually dismantling parts of the wall in order to get in there. Obviously, very considerable bitterness now between protesters and police in hong kong. We will join journalist and police in hong kong. We will joinjournalist who and police in hong kong. We will join journalist who has and police in hong kong. We will joinjournalist who has been watching these developments today. Tell us how the protest have look to you today . It is evening now in hong kong, which means the protests have been going on for about 12 hours. There is two groups present here, there is a group of mostly students and young people who are self organised, over social media. They came out early this to disrupt flag raising ceremony thats part of the july the 1st handover tradition. The State Government headquarters, occupied the space. Those are the people you see trying to break into the headquarters they stayed at government headquarters. Theyve been ramming the doors. These are the more hardcore protesters and they have been fired on multiple times by police with tear gas, sorry, with pepper spray. Some were hit by batons earlier this morning. There is also in march still going through Central Hong Kong organised by civil human rights front, thats more ordinary people with families, older people, children, those people also marching against the bill. The groups are converging at government right now. I suppose some may wonder why it is the protesters who are trying to break in and have indeed in some cases successfully broken into the building, why are they doing that . Those pictures of disruption, of chaos, as it will prove be presented in Mainland China, dont do them any favours with the chinese public and arguably dont do them any favours with other sections of the hong kong public. Thats a very good question. I think what you are seeing here is a group of people who are very frustrated and they also feel they have nothing to lose at this point. They see the extradition bill is in endgame to the end of hong kongs promised freedoms, freedoms promised by the Chinese Government when hong kong was handed over from Chinese Government when hong kong was handed overfrom the uk. Carrie lam has not listened to anything theyve had to say. She said no to withdrawing the bill permanently, no to an enquiry into the Police Brutality on june to an enquiry into the Police Brutality onjune the 12th. She will not step down. She apologised twice but its been very poorly received. I think these people, the feel they are defending their homeland from foreign interference from china and so you have both a real local patriotism and also real desperation. Given that answer youve just given, do you think this will go on . Of course, today is a day when annually and ritually, those hong kong citizens who are concerned about some of hong kongs freedoms, under the growing narrowness of one country, two systems, as the chinese system is called now, do you think those protesters will go on or will they say the job done for this year . I think they will definitely go on. Maybe those matching today, the normal ordinary folks, they will probably go home today and might not come out until another march is called by civil human rights front. The core prostate core protesters will keep going, theyve kept going all month. They organised a small protest throughout the city, wildcat actions. They are not organised by a bidder, they are organised by themselves on social media message boards. They are not organised by a leader. I think they will keep going until they get what they want. As for tomorrow, i think you will see protesters continue to occupy the government building until the early hours, usually people get tired and then the right police come in and clear everybody out. This should continue into july. Thank you for joining should continue into july. Thank you forjoining us from hong kong. Lets speak to our own reporter, who is on the streets with those protesters. I know youve been looking from different vantage points across the city, what do you make of it today . Its been an extraordinary day of extraordinary scenes. The anger, the ease with which these protesters have been able to surround the building here where normally the politicians would gather and make their voices now on. Today the only voices you hear is that of this young angry protest movement and its remarkable theyve been able to do this and continue to do this when you think about what theyve done. They brought forward barricades, smashed various entrances of the building, in some places they created a gap people thought about going through but when they looked in and sort the police lined up with pepper spray and there are shields and riot gear, the protesters thought twice. But they have not gone home. We are losing the lights here this evening but there is no indication these protesters are content theyve got their point across. What beijing makes of this weve got no idea. This is the 22nd anniversary of the handover. If you think what they would have made office in 1990 when he looked ahead to 2019 and whats taken its pretty remarkable 1997. I was on the streets of beijing in 1997 and i dont think we would have predicted the scenes we now see in hong kong. The headlines on bbc news thousands of people take to the streets in hong kong protesting against plans to allow extraditions to Mainland China. Cliff richard and dj Paul Gambaccini launch a petition calling for anonymity for sexual offence suspects. Jeremy hunt promises £6 billion to support farming and the fishing industry if theres a no deal brexit. Borisjohnson says hed give Public Sector workers a pay rise if he becomes Prime Minister. Sport now, heres steve wyeth wimbledon is under way and we put action on the outside courts. Shall we start with some early british interest . I think thats where all the attention and the focus will fall on day one of the championships and thats on the two british players in action today. We will talk about kyle edmund who plays later on but Heather Watson is up first. Shes on court number 12 right now against Katie Mcnally of the usa. First meeting between these two. Heather watson has always been in the opening draw, always seems to be present here, since 2010. Good news for her and for the prudish fans watching, she took the first set on a tie break, winning a 7 6 for the british fans watching. One of six british wild cards in the drawer this year. She will hope to close that out. Heather watson, this year. She will hope to close that out. Heatherwatson, never this year. She will hope to close that out. Heather watson, never been past the third round but she will hope now to book her place once again in the second round. Kyle edmund, huge expectation on his shoulders in the absence of andy murray in the singles. Kyle edmund, interesting to see what form he can find on grass. You reach the semifinals at eastbourne recently pulled out of the french open with a knee injury. He will hope to show form on grass not least because all hopes will rest on his shoulders as the british number one. What can we expect up against hit spanish opponent, last up on centre court. Earlier he said of course there is added expectation now he is the british number one. You dont change the way you play because its wimbledon, you dont suddenly try harder or play any better. You always try your best anywhere in the world but i think you learn you have to expect when you learn you have to expect when you are a professional tennis player at wimbledon as a brit, there will be more eyes on you and you have to learn to cope with it and embrace it. And thats something you learn and ive got better with throughout the years. Thats the british hope and expectation. What else is there to look forward to today at wimbledon . We now Novak Djokovic will be in action, he opens on centre court, as is tradition, with the raining mens champing to open on day one. Venus williams up against a 15 year old, the youngest ever player to make it through to the main draw at wimbledon. 24 years separate the two. Venus has one back for over seven grand slams before her opponent had ever been born venus had won. That is all the sport for now. More on those stories on the bbc sport website, plus the latest on the cricket world cup, works it shall anchor our batting first against the west indies. More from me a little bit later weah sri lanka are batting first. The conservative leadership candidates have been on the campaign trail again this morning. Jeremy hunt has been outlining his plans on brexit in a speech in Central London while Boris Johnson has talking about plans for increasing Public Sector pay. Lets speak to our assistant Political Editor norman smith. The man who is always there with his finger on the pulse, what struck you . I think what struck me was how jeremy hunt has clearly been wounded and stung by this charge from Boris Johnsons team that by not setting october the 31st as a hard deadline hes opened the door to further delay and he is in effect theresa may in trousers. Today we got Boris Johnson toughening up his. Sorry, jeremy hunt toughening up his position on no deal saying in august he will cancel all leave for civil serva nts u nless he will cancel all leave for Civil Servants unless they put together a coherent no deal plan and present that to the eu in september and if by the start of october at the eu have not clearly signalled they are happy to negotiate on these terms then, forget it, we are out of fear on october the 31st. He used the phrase borisjohnson on october the 31st. He used the phrase Boris Johnson has on october the 31st. He used the phrase borisjohnson has been using against him, saying there will be no kicking the can. It wasjeremy hunt flexing his biceps on brexit because clearly he feels he is on the defensive. Have a listen to him. I want to be Crystal Clear with members of the conservative party, with my parliamentary colleagues and with the European Union, if there is no engagement on this deal, if it is apparent the commission is simply not interested in negotiating, if there is no willingness to tackle there is no willingness to tackle the shortcomings of the backstop and if there is no immediate prospect of a deal that can get through parliament, then there will be no kicking the can down the road. And we will intensify and finalise our preparations to leave without a deal. And for good measure he also rounded on borisjohnson and for good measure he also rounded on Boris Johnson for a and for good measure he also rounded on borisjohnson for a lack of a no deal planning saying he was approaching it on a wing and a prayer. Jeremy hunt said by contrast, he would unveil plans for an emergency no deal budget to safeguard the fishing and farming industry, he also suggested there would be cuts in Corporation Tax to bring it down to irish levels and set upa bring it down to irish levels and set up a special no deal Cobra Committee to bang heads in government and make sure no deal planning was coordinated. And there will be a Logistics Centre to ease any glitches at ports and airports. This all while borisjohnson has been carrying on with his spending spree. This morning announcing he plans to see a fair pay rise for Public Sector workers. He was pressed while out and about in sevenoaks at the Garden Centre abbott exactly what sort of pay rise that might be. You need to have decent pay in the Public Sector, absolutely. Can you make a concrete commitment . Its a very important. I used to run a large Public Sector organisations in london and i was very proud of what we did. Its very important when you are in charge of a great public service, whether the police or transport, youve got to make sure you understand they are carers and their needs and the only way to get the new format you sometimes needin get the new format you sometimes need in Public Services is to be their champion need in Public Services is to be theirchampion need in Public Services is to be their champion get the reform that you sometimes need. We kept Police Numbers high and kept investment going into police because we championed them. Both the contenders have been slapped on the wrists by the chancellor Philip Hammond who in effect said there is no money for all this. The 26 billion headroom they keep pointing to is just an Available Borrowing facility enabling us to borrow an extra 26 billion, there is no cash than the back of the sofa. In any case, says mr hammond, that borrowing facility has already been set aside to cope with the possible ramifications of no deal. His message to them seems to be you guys aint got any money for this. Before i let you go, lets leave the tories on one site a look at labour because that was the unusual story on saturdays times about the leader of the opposition jeremy on saturdays times about the leader of the oppositionJeremy Corbyn being too frail according to unnamed Civil Servants in order to serve as Prime Minister. We understand the cabinet secretary is going to write toJeremy Corbyn. Mark central has taken the complaints from labour seriously and said he will reply to mr corbyn and he indicated he believes if any Civil Servant breached the journalists at the times about the questions about mr corbyn health, that would be a breach of Civil Service rules of impartiality. However, im not sure he is committed to a formal enquiry, he is not saying he will to find out who is responsible for this briefing, if thats what happened but he seems to suggest if a Civil Service that mac serva nts suggest if a Civil Service that mac servants have been doing this, that would be completely at odds with normal Civil Service practice. The mexican city of guadalajara has been hit by a severe hail storm, which dumped more than a metre of ice on the streets. Cars were stranded and half buried, with drivers trapped inside. Almost 500 houses were damaged. Pictures and videos shared on social media show streets totally covered with ice. Earlier in the week, the city in northern mexico, had been basking in temperatures of more than 30 degrees celsius. Ben rich is a meteorologist and bbc weather presenter. You are living it as an open question . How do we get 38 celsius one minute and 1. 5 metres or pull stunts in the next . Thats the question everyone is asking. 1. 5 asking. 1. 5 metres of hailstones. People think of hailstones as a winter phenomenon but its more likely in hot weather because we need energy into the atmosphere so we get moist air which rises rapidly into a powering nimbus cloud, the same kind that bring summer thunderstorms. You see water droplets but also ice particles which end strong updraughts and downdraughts in the cloud, they knock together, the ice particles grow larger into hailstones and when they become big enough they fall. The Energy Required requires heat. We dont get hailstones in the summer. We do, yeah. I dont think you are alone because i think lots of people think because it is ice, people think of that as a winter phenomenon but hailstones and big hailstones particularly takes some heats, some energy to cause form. Talking of big hailstones, look at their pictures, astonishing. Is that normal . We are kind of going by the pictures, it was in the middle of the night so its hard to get a sense of what happened exactly what it looks like the hail that fell was not particularly big. It would have fallen not particularly big. It would have fa lle n o nto not particularly big. It would have fallen onto a relatively warm ground, the temperature before the start it was 22 celsius. It came down to 14 celsius in just 20 minutes but initially falling on one ground will have melted, formed water and on top of that more hail and more hail so you have a mixture of ice and water which then it looks like it was flowing through the streets. Its not so much we dumped over one metre of hail, but that was the size of the drift, if you like. That does explain things. It looks to us like, in terms of the amount that fell from the sky, we are talking may be 16 or 20 millimetres, not in any way unusual. It looks like its that combination of quite small hail that melted, mixture of ice and water that was flowing and it looks like thats what happened here. Major clarification. Thank you very much. Plea to you as well as to the public. Not so much drama here for others across the uk for the next few days. Actually, a pretty quiet week ahead. High pressure will dominate. Some clouds could sneak into the north on thursday and friday and spread some rain but for today there is a lot of fine weather. Remnants of a weather front drifting south. Showers for a time across england and the north of wales and Northern Ireland, if you stray one is scotland. Top temperatures, high teens up to the low 20s. Gone is that heat and humidity of last week and a north westerly breeze adding to the fresher feel. That remains with us through tuesday and it becomes lighter. Overnight, clear skies, quite cool in rural wales, those of five or six, a pleasant night takes us into tuesday, and another large fined ray for the majority. Some showers for northern and western scotland, perhaps for Northern Ireland and tempter similar to today. The rest of the week will pan out like this, but further north there is some rain on thursday and friday. Hello, this is bbc newsroom live with carrie gracie. The headlines.

Jeremy hunt promises £6 billion to support farming and the fishing industry if theres a no deal brexit. Borisjohnson says hed give Public Sector workers a pay rise if he becomes Prime Minister. The sister of a muslim woman killed in a so called honour killing in the uk has told the bbc that she wants to campaign against these crimes. In 2006, 20 year old banaz mahmod was killed on the orders of her father and uncle when she left her unhappy marriage and started a relationship with another man. In the First Television interview, her sister Payzee Mahmod says she want to break the silence surrounding honour based violence. Precious memories of her adored sister banaz mahmod. We were very, very close. We would often you know, get in trouble together and go through the good times together. We were pretty inseparable growing up. We would always tell people we were twins because we had quite a small gap in age between us. Her parents were iraqi kurds, who, along with their six children, made their home in london. We were quite a close family essentially. We were quite a close family. There was a lot of us, so there was always something going on, always something to do. Somebody, you know, to do something with. But that happiness came to an abrupt end. In 2005, banaz left her unhappy marriage and started a relationship with another man, rahmat sulemani. Her father and uncle believed she had brought shame on herfamily and ordered men to kill her. She was strangled and her body dumped in a suitcase. Since then, the only way i could describe the last 13 years, its just been practically hell. Banaz mahmod had sought police help five times before her murder. An independent Police Review found that shed been let down by police. Im not quite sure what else the Police Needed to have helped banaz. What else would they have needed . Would they have needed banaz to go and arrest the people herself . She went there with a list of names. You know, for me, its something i cant, i dont know how to move past. After banazs murder, police said officers would be trained to deal with similar cases. Years after banazs killing, her sister payzee struggles to understand why this happened. Losing ba naz, it just doesnt make sense. Its why she is speaking out. Sorry. We never talk about what happened. And i think thats part of the problem. Because the moment you choose to ignore actually what happened and not talk about it, you will never get past it. And 13 years on, we still havent had that conversation. She wants to campaign against these crimes and prevent others from being killed. Poonam taneja, bbc news. Lets get more now on the pledges made by the conservative leadership candidates, jeremy hunt and borisjohnson. They have been on the campaign trail again this morning, withjeremy hunt outlining his plans on brexit in a speech in Central London, while borisjohnson has been talking about plans for increasing Public Sector pay. Here with me to take a closer look at the pledges of both is ben zaranko, Research Economist at the institute for fiscal studies. Thank you for coming in. What do you make of these pledges. Both have given quite a list . Yes, both candidates have come up with large packages of tax cuts on the one hand and increasing spending on the other. There is some similarities between the proposers of both candidates, both are thought about National Insurance thresholds. Jeremy hunt is talked about lowering the rate of Corporation Tax, Boris Johnson has talked about higher income tax. Jeremy hunt has talked about an increase in defence spending. Borisjohnson about an increase in defence spending. Boris johnson has about an increase in defence spending. Borisjohnson has talked about different spending areas including schools. We have done the lists already, but are they realistic and can we afford them . Both candidates are referring quite often to the headroom, the fiscal headroom of Phillip Hammond, his war chest. That means that next year Phillip Hammond has set himself a string as to what he was willing to borrow. Back in march on current forecasts we we re borrow. Back in march on current forecasts we were set to borrow 26 billion less than that, that is the headroom we are talking about and possibly using at the p4 spending increases or tax cuts. That 26 is more like 15 because of a change in how we account for student loans. Secondly, it only refers to one year, we have a target for 2021 and we have 26 billion or 15 billion, it is based against that. There is no target beyond that and you cannot have headroom against a target that does not exist. It is not money that the treasury has set aside to spend if it wanted, this would be extra boring that we are not planning on doing it now, and all of these forecasts and numbers are predicated on us having a smooth orderly brexit. This is a point that Philip Hammond is making, we only have the headroom with an orderly exit. Yes, the office for budget responsibility has made that forecast bearing in mind we have a smooth brexit. If the economy worsens and the outlook for tax worsens, some of that money could disappear as well. Do you agree with that, the case that the chancellor has made . That is true, it is not to say that you couldnt borrow more if you wanted to to support a struggling economy, but you could not do that to meet the fiscal targets of Philip Hammond. If you were to do that and combine these big tax spending proposals and with the pressure of public finances, it is difficult to maintain. If we look at the most optimistic scenario that there is a deal and we have this headroom, though they pledges fit within that headroom . I hear though they pledges fit within that headroom . I hear what though they pledges fit within that headroom . I hear what you are saying about the student fees, the headroom is smaller than the 26 billion, but with a fit within the smaller amount . Perhaps not if all of their proposals were enacted at once. But the target refers to next year. For instance, jeremy hunt wants to increase spending over the medium term. If they have a new set of fiscal targets, perhaps they will have a better idea as to how the public finances will look. |j have a better idea as to how the public finances will look. I just before i let you go, one question as to where the sets on our recent history, because, of course, for a decade, we were talking about austerity, government figures telling us we must live within our means. And suddenly we have all of this headroom, how does that set . Have we always had this headroom . The headroom is a target that Philip Hammond has picked for himself. There is nothing special about that. So we could have had this headroom in 2009, 2012, whatever . Yes, borrowing has come down now before pre crisis but the National Debt, the accumulation of borrowing is much higher than pre crisis. Now it is important that we have a discussion as to what that means and when you think about fiscal strategies that have that debt falling in the medium to long term so that it is not going on an upwards unsustainable path. That sounds familiar but we cannot discuss it anymore at the moment. Thank you, ben is ben zaranko. Eu leaders meeting in brussels remain divided over who should get the eus top jobs, and talks have been suspended until tuesday. They are arguing mainly over a successor to Commission President jean claude juncker. They had hoped to get a deal on sunday night. Diplomats say summit chair donald tusk proposed dutch centre left politician Frans Timmermans to succeed mrjuncker. Hundreds of thousands of people in new york have lined the streets to watch the citys pride parade. The event marks the 50th anniversary of riots in 1969 between police and customers at the stonewall inn. A smaller unofficial march has also been held. Its organisers claim to represent the true spirit of the gay rights movement. Our lgbt correspondent, ben hunte, sent us this report from manhattan. New york has always been a major destination for lgbt pride festivals but this weekend where the biggest events yet. Whilst inclusion and equality could be felt across the city, there have been to duelling pride parades marching through the streets. One with hued floats, Major Corporate sponsors and millions of people lining the streets. The other taking you completely stripped back approach. Many would not even recognise as a modern lgbt pride parade. The team behind it reclaim pride were protesting the commercialisation of pride with home made banners, political chanting and a rally in central park. What we are seeing is them co opting this very important activist holiday as a corporate platform for profit. We want to return it to its roots, which was a protest march put on by activists in the wake of the 1969 stonewall riots. So, has pride become too commercial . Virgin ceo Sir Richard Branson does commercial . Virgin ceo sir richard bra nson does not commercial . Virgin ceo Sir Richard Branson does not think it matters. |j think it is a start on the right direction. They are better than the companies that are doing nothing. Whilst people debate whether pride has lost its message, it is worth remembering that neither of this weekends events here would be welcome in several cities in the United States and in many countries across the world. Ben hunte, bbc news, new york. Joining us to talk more about pride, and the work of stonewall, is one of the charitys directors, robbie de santos. Roddy, you take your name from the stonewall inn. That is correct, the charity was formed 20 years later in 1929, in response to section 28 being introduced, a piece of legislation that sought to ban schools and local authorities from promoting homosexuality. 1989. Robbie. But in taking that name we remember those very brave activists in new york who have had enough of the brutality of the police and from the brutality of the police and from the shame that society put on us and they started to fight back. The shame that society put on us and they started to fight backm the shame that society put on us and they started to fight back. It is interesting that you are talking about the moment that stonewall here was founded. And things have moved on dramatically in the right direction from your point of view. Absolutely, it is a mixed picture as always. But in the last 30 years of stonewall the uk charity existing, we have seen same sex marriage become legal, the equalising of age of consent, gay and bisexual people can serve in the military, there have been a lot of legal progress that we have seen. On the other hand there is a lot of hate crime that affects lesbian, gay and bisexual people. And the trans people are also affected. And for all of us, that hate crime has increased. That has increased over the last 20 yea rs. Has increased over the last 20 years. Do you see this as a moment of celebration or sombre reflection . Somewhere in the middle, we have two remember those who have gone before us but we cannot be complacent, and this month in the uk we have seen three really high profile lesbian, gay and trans attacks that have woken up a lot of people about the reality facing our community at the time. For us, it is really about not just celebrating the fabulous weight thatis just celebrating the fabulous weight that is happening across the country, but bringing allies together, people who are not lgbt and asking them to play their part. We need you to show your support and speak out when you see these attacks, it cannotjust be left to us. When you talk about the battle of ideas, perhaps that has been one now, we have heard from the cheek of cambridge who has said how relaxed he would feel if his children were to come out with a different sexual irritation sexual orientation, but we have also heard Vladimir Putin talking about it in a way that it isa putin talking about it in a way that it is a problem, the world that we are moving towards. And in the stand this weekend, we had pride protesters shot at them, tear gas. In istanbul this weekend. It is important that we make sure that our government, notjust in the uk, continues to lead the way in making sure that britain is leading by example and is using our soft power to ensure that other leaders across the world are continuing to support lg bt the world are continuing to support lgbt rights. And when you look forward into the future, looking back 50 years, if you look forward 50 yea rs, back 50 years, if you look forward 50 years, what will it look like . Back 50 years, if you look forward 50 years, what will it look like . |j hope it will be a better world for lg bt hope it will be a better world for lgbt people. Our mission is for eve ryo ne lgbt people. Our mission is for everyone to be accepted for who they are and we want to see that take place globally. Whether that is in sport at the highest levels and being accepted or people are unable to marry and have children, being legally recognised for their gender across the world, that is what we are moving towards at stonewall. Robbie de santos, thank you so much for coming in. From today, mobile phone users can change provider with just one free text. The new rules are designed to encourage more of us to shop around. The phone regulator ofcom says almost a third of switchers find it difficult to cancel their mobile service. It is the biggest barrier stopping people from changing, even if the new deal could actually be better value. Nearly half of people who wanted to switch but decided against it said they thought it was all going to be too time consuming. But this is costing people money. Uswitch say we are overspending to the tune of about £325 million every year. So from today if you want to switch you send one text with the letters pac to 65075 and the text is totally free. Your current provider will then respond with a code. Theyll also tell you if there is a termination fee and what your current balance is. You give that code to your new provider and within one working day your service will have switched. Theres no need to call your old provider at all. Earlier, i spoke to lindsey fussell, the Consumer Group director of ofcom, who told us why people have previously been put off from switching mobile providers. We think it will make a huge difference, yes. People have told us the biggest thing that puts them of switching is the hassle of getting through to their current provider. They keep you waiting on the phone and when you speak to them, they try to persuade you to stay. From now on, you will be able to send a free of charge, simple text message, and you will be able to deal with your new provider, you wont have to speak to your old one and have that awkward conversation. It has never been more easy to switch. Another thing, i know we went through the percentages of those who dont switch because they dont want the hassle of getting into the conversation, but i suppose another thing that people feel about their phone contract is it can be complicated itself, so are you really going to clear out the difficulty for people of switching and measuring their deal against a possible other deal . There are lots of great mobile phone deals out there and lots of ways of finding out about them. Perhaps using a Price Comparison website, or going into one of the shops on the high street. One of the other things that people told us that put them off switching is having to pay their old and new provider at the same time. We have stepped in there as well and if you are outside your contract period, your provider will no longer be able to charge you, once you have given that code to your new provider. There will be nothing further to pay to your old one. We estimate that will save consumers £10 million on its own. So a significant amount. Many viewers will want to know whether you think this is going to really provide deflationary pressure on the price of phone contracts, the fact that all providers will have to get leaner and hungrier in order to convince their customers to stay . We know that there are lots of great deals out there. Mobile prices in the uk amount to some of the cheapest in europe, but we are concerned that not everyone is taking advantage of those deals. We would really encourage everyone to shop around and together with this interventional switching today, we have also required providers across Communication Services to tell you when your contract is coming to an end and offer you their best deal. It is part of a broader package of work to make sure consumers get a fair deal. Artificial intelligence is likely to play a role in whether you get your next big job interview. Research by the bbc shows that video interviews and screening is on the rise and is used by more than half of employers in their recruitment. But staff arent so keen one recent survey showed nearly half arent happy with video interviews and most feel face to face is best. Colletta smith reports. There are lots of things that appeal to me about this role. Im exciting about meeting new people, about learning new skills. It will actually video you doing the interview, so companies can actually see you pre recorded. So you wont actually be speaking to anyone. The world of work and the kind of studying. It gives them an opportunity to see you and how you are in real life, in person. So that means one minute and 30 seconds, the time to read. So you can with the question. Thats not very long. When you see the clock ticking down honestly, it really adds to the pressure. Am i looking in the right place, do you think, they are . Yeah, definitely. I think you have the right angle. But if anything, it will be a white background as well. 0k. So, thats important, thinking about whats behind you during the interview. Whats behind you. Yeah, definitely. Making sure youve not got your washing up or. Yeah, thats it. Im as ready as ill ever be. 0k. And when youre ready, you just click it. And i just start my answer . Straightaway . And youll have two minutes to then answer your question. Does it tell you. . 0k there is definitely benefits with it. They can save time, they can save money as well, but there are also negatives in terms of some people who may be dont have that much confidence to do the interview and making sure that they answer the right questions. People do get nervous, especially talking to a camera and not an actual person. Perfect. How do you feel that when . Job done. Honestly, i feel. Its definitely. My heart rate is going. You are really smiling and its like, ah, 0k. Its very engaging, which is a really good thing. Some breaking news coming in about iran and breaking the nuclear deal. They have announced that they have. Their foreign minister has said that tehran are steps to decrease its commitment to the 2015 nuclear deal are reversible. So, those steps are reversible. It is a game of carrots and sticks going on both from the iranians and americans, because, as you know, the United States pulled out of the deal one year ago and imposed economic sanctions on iran and we have had those tanks attacks on tankers in the gulf and the shooting down of an american Surveillance Aircraft over the gulf. Both sides playing hardball. We will bring you more on that as we get it. Serena williams is chasing her 24th grand slam title, and on tuesday she returns to wimbledon, with hopes of becoming champion for the eighth time. Shes spoken to sally nugent about overcoming injury, motherhood, and her royal friendship with meghan, duchess of sussex. My names sally, lovely to meet you.

Thats how it kind of starts and, for me, i do have a voice that i can use and how do i use that in a positive way . On your instagram, yourjob title is olympias mum. How has becoming a mother changed you . Becoming a mom, its changed my perspective on a lot of things and also its changed me in terms of wanting to leave a legacy, i want to be this positive person for my daughter and ijust want always to just everything i do i want to do it for my daughter and i never obviously had that motivation before. You seem to have the parenting thing totally down. I totally do not. Im a mess. How are you a mess . Ijust put on some concealer and im here. Thats what we all do and im pretending that everythings fine. Do you want to make things maybe different to how they were for you growing up . I think parents nowadays are like, oh, we want this, we want our kids to do this and we want this and we want this, but, well, we didnt turn out that bad so, you know, im definitely going to incorporate a lot of stuff that my parents did with me. I had a really Good Environment growing up and i loved having sisters around. I cant provide that for olympia just right now. Yet who knows . Yet. Have you had any chance to talk to your friend Meghan Markle about maybe giving some parenting advice or pass on some words of wisdom . I never pass on words of wisdom because i think everybody who has a kid, especially when you just have a baby, it is so difficult tojust be. Thats the truth. Its just like get through the first three months and four months and then we can talk. What motivates you now . What gets you out of bed, what gets you into the gym and onto the court . I dont want to not play tennis. I love doing what i do, but i dont want to not do it at the best level that i can. So if i go out on the court and im not training as hard as i want to, its just not going to work out for me, so thats my motivation. Looking ahead into this tournament, how do you feel physically . Do you feel right there and ready . I feel good now. Its been a rough time for me this year, but im finally at a place where like, oh, my god, im not in pain, oh, my god, lets do this this is a good place for me to be at. So you feel not in pain physically, ready to go . Yes, and i couldnt be more excited about it, so now im just happy. In a moment its time for the one oclock news with clive myrie, but first its time for a look at the weather. Hello. There is a lot of dry and sunny weather to come through the week ahead. Our forecast has been largely dominated by high pressure. Some weather fronts trying to push into the north from time to time. The high has to be orientated from last week, that core of dark orange is further south in europe. We are backin is further south in europe. We are back in the yellow, more like average temperatures for this time of year. Here is our high in the west which has left us in a north westerly earful. More like average values for our temperatures with a north westerly breeze over the next few days, but a lot of dry weather and one or two showers perhaps feeding into the far north west for the remainder of today. The best of the sunshine will not always be in the south western regions, perhaps some getting into the north sea toast. Coast. 32 for the south east of england. In the evening, largely dry and fine and overnight one or two stray showers pushing into the north west of scotland. Clearing skies, actually quite fresh for the time of year a cross actually quite fresh for the time of year across wales, those around five or6 year across wales, those around five or 6 degrees. Elsewhere more co mforta ble or 6 degrees. Elsewhere more comfortable than it has been in recent nights with the lows of ten or11. Recent nights with the lows of ten or 11. Tuesday, another largely fine day. Again, if you showers possible across northern and western scotland. Perhaps the breeze a little lighter than we will see today. Temperature is very similar, 16 in aberdeen, 18 for belfast, up to 22 in london. The forecast is looking very good for the first week at wimbledon. Very little change in that forecast i think from day today with the remainder of the week ahead and here is why. Here is the high and here is why. Here is the high and it is here to stay for the rest of this week. Low pressure to bump into the north, we could see more in a way of wet weather. Scotland and Northern Ireland briefly through thursday and friday. A lot of fine weather on offer certainly across england and wales, and that forecast further north is subject to modification as we get closer to the time, just how much rain we will see here. Here is wednesday, a lovely looking day for the majority, sunny spells, temperatures in the high teens up to the low 20s. For the outlook, lots of fine weather to come but if anything temperatures perhaps edging away into the start of next weekend. Protestors try to storm the main government building in hong kong, as police clash with thousands of protestors, on the anniversary of the handover to china. Rioters used whatever they could find to smash into the Legislative Council, demanding the withdrawal of a bill allowing extradition to the chinese mainland. These situations are out of control. This is very dangerous here. For the protestors and for the security guards and the police. Well have the very lastest, amid fears beijing may take tough action to stop the protests. Also this lunchtime. Sound economic policies or shaking the magic money tree . Both tory leadership contenders spell out future spending plans
