In Sport England get the crucial wicket of steve smith as they edge towards victory in the final ashes test. And coming up at 4 30 a look at how algerians are trying to rewrite the history of revolutions in algeria revolution of smiles. The liberal democrats have voted to stop brexit if they win the next general election. A motion to revoke article 50, has been approved at the partys conference in bournemouth. The lib dem leader, jo swinson, said supporters of a party dedicated to stopping brexit would getjust that. Our Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake reports. Pro europe and proud, the liberal democrats are clear they want to stop brexit. The question for members here this weekend is how. So far, its been all about another referendum. But the party leader wants to go further and campaign to pull the plug on leaving the eu if it wins a general election. The policy that we are debating at Conference Today is very clear. If the liberal democrats at the next election win a majority, if people put into government as a majority government the stop brexit party, then, stopping brexit is exactly what people will get. Yes, we will revoke article 50. Its an easy sell to most members here who see stopping brexit as their mission. We will put an end there and then to the brexit nightmare that is dragging the whole country down, and tearing us apart. But there is some uneasiness at overturning the result of a referendum without putting the question to the public again. If we end up in a coalition it could happen we arent going to be pushing through revoking article 50. I mean, i hope well get a peoples vote, but i dont want to be in a position again where the liberal democrats have promised something and done something else. I think theres a real danger of that with revoking article 50. Life is not bad for lib dems right now. Record membership, signs from opinion polls and the european elections that their anti brexit message is winning them support. And yet another mp from elsewhere coming on board. The former conservative sam gyimah, who briefly ran for the tory leadership, is the latest to jump ship, but he represents a safe conservative seat in surrey. Winning there as a lib dem will be tough. He wasnt the only star turn here last night. The european parliaments brexit coordinator Guy Verhofstadt flew in from brussels to give the lib dems some love. And then what . Do you. Although the liberal democrats are at odds with the referendum result to leave the eu, they seem determined to turn that to their advantage and go further than ever their stop brexit stance. Lets go live to our Political Correspondent, Jonathan Blake, whos at the conference. With me, in the sunshine in bournemouth is the liberal democrats brexit spokesman, tom brake, talking more about this decision by a party today and the campaign to revoke article 50 if you win a general election. No referendum . No, what we are setting out is a clear policy that if people vote for a liberal democrat government, and a majority of liberal democrat mps are elected in the house of commons, we will revoke article 50 and the reason is to put an end to the nightmare that is brexit and the only way to do thatis is brexit and the only way to do that is to guarantee you have done that is to guarantee you have done that through revoking. You are the liberal democrats, is it not anti democratic to overturn the result of a referendum without putting that question to the people ain . Putting that question to the people again . We are setting out well in advance of a general election our stance. That will feature prominently during the Election Campaign and it will be no surprise to people that, having elected us in a majority government, that we then deliver on that policy. Until then, because we do not yet have a general Election Campaign, we will continue to campaign fora Election Campaign, we will continue to campaign for a peoples to give people the chance to vote for either borisjohnsons deal, if he comes up with one which i doubt, or vote to stay in the eu. You are telling us the electorate will decide and there isa the electorate will decide and there is a chancy lib dems government can happen. Thats unlikely, you will never get the chance to, you can say what you like in an Election Campaign . Actually theres not much between the political parties. In the last general Election Campaign, we can start ahead, we think low still losing things but the present situation politically in the uk is very fluid so i am confident withjo swinson as our leader, who is more popular among conservative remainers than borisjohnson, popular among conservative remainers than Boris Johnson, that popular among conservative remainers than borisjohnson, that we would do well in this general election. We had some speakers say it was a promise that could not be delivered. And someone else could this alienate people who want to see the result of the referendum expected evenif result of the referendum expected even if they do not agree with that . Clearly there is a risk with a peoples that if people wanted no deal and it is not on the ballot paper that they will be unhappy with that vote and equally, if Boris Johnson rams through no deal, which is what he seems intent on doing, absolutely nobody voted for that three years ago and they will be entitled to be angry with our Prime Minister. And what if you do not win a general election, go back to supporting a peoples . A general election, go back to supporting a peoples . That is our policy. Thank you. And after that result in the Conference Room earlier, revoking article 50 if the liberal democrats when the next general election. Thank you. David cameron has accused Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, of not believing in brexit, when hejoined the leave campaign, in the run up to the referendum. In an extract from the former Prime Ministers memoirs, published in the sunday times, he says mrjohnson backed leave because it would help his political career. Heres our Political Correspondent, peter saull. Johnson how do you do . Cameron are we going to do blue team . Do you want to go in goal or upfront . Ill go here. They once stood side by side. Two men with similar backgrounds, both in high office, playing for the same team. That was until the eu referendum. As his memoirs serialised in the sunday times testify, the then Prime Minister tried to persuade his old chum to back remain. David cameron writes this, the conclusion i am left with is he risked an outcome he did not believe in because it would help his political career. You could not accuse us of being anti european. Nor little englanders. There have long been questions about what motivated the poster boy of brexit. But is he really a true believer in the cause . His cabinet colleagues certainly think so. Remain would have been the easier career choice, borisjohnson led the campaign because he believes in brexit and is committed to delivering it. David cameron is disappointed with borisjohnson, but with other brexiteers, hes not pulling any punches. 0n michael gove, he writes. Michael gove, the liberal minded, carefully considered conservative intellectual, had become a foam flecked faragist, warning that the entire turkish population was about to come to britain. But today, michael gove was keeping his feelings to himself. He has accused you of being a faragist, of becoming a populist. How do you feel about that . Others, too, are in the firing line. David cameron says he was most shocked by claims from the then employment minister, now home secretary, priti patel. I was a minister in David Camerons government, it was a privilege to serve in that government, and i enjoyed working with him and many of my colleagues. Obviously, the referendum has happened, we have all moved on and the fact is we are now working to deliver that referendum mandate. That is so important. There is no point going over the past. More than three years after he resigned, David Cameron has broken his silence at a crucial time for both brexit and number tens current incumbent. Peter saull, bbc news. The foreign secretary minister dominic raab says two drone attacks on major oil plants in saudi arabia were a reckless attempt to damage Regional Security and disrupt global oil supplies. It comes as iran dismisses claims by the us secretary of state, mike pompeo, that it was responsible. Houthi rebels in neighbouring yemen have said they carried them out in revenge for saudi arabias Bombing Campaign against them. The attacks have badly hit the saudis Oil Production capacity and led to the a selling off of shares in Oil Companies on the Stock Exchange there this morning. Nina nanji reports. An increasingly bitter war of words between iran and the United States over who is to blame for the attacks on the heart of saudi arabias economy. The saudis say half of their Oil Production has been knocked out after drone strikes on two oilfacilities. Houthi rebels in yemen say they were behind the attacks. But the us secretary of state dismissed this, saying there was no evidence the drones came from yemen. In a tweet, he said that tehran is behind nearly 100 attacks on saudi arabia, while irans president rouhani and foreign minister zarif pretend to engage in diplomacy. Iran immediately hit back, scathing of trump administrations methods. Foreign media reports say the attacks could have a Significant Impact on world oil prices. The strikes hit the abqaiq and khurais Oil Processing plants, run by state owned aramco one of the worlds biggest Oil Companies. The smoke visible from space, caught by a nasa satellite. Khurais produces around i of the worlds oil, and abqaiq is capable of processing 7 of global supply. Even a brief or partial disruption could affect the company and the oil supply given their size. Nina nanji, bbc news. Police have fired tear gas and water cannon, to disperse pro democracy protesters, whove gathered in Central Hong Kong as three months of demonstrations show no sign of ending. Activists threw petrol bombs, built barricades and damaged a subway station. Tens of thousands of people joined the protest, even though it had been banned. 0ur reporter, nick beake, sent this update from the very noisy protests. Well, once again the pro democracy activists of hong kong are on the march. This is the 15th consecutive weekend of protests in hong kong. Look at this. If you thought things were dying down, theyre simply not. This is the main government headquarters here and you can see a hardcore of protesters all dressed in black. They are attacking it once again wth bricks, with molotov cocktails. The police have been responding with tear gas. And this is what happens. We have seen it time and again. There was a big rally early on with lots of families involved that was very peaceful, but then it descends into this. You get the feeling this will go on for a few more hours to come as they continue to attack the police, who so far have been holding back. A new storm has brought heavy rain to the bahamas, almost two weeks after Hurricane Dorian claimed at least 50 lives and devastated the islands. Tropical storm humberto, is slowly moving north and is expected to become a hurricane either tonight or tomorrow morning. Emergency services say 1,300 people remain missing across the bahamas.

Prince william has praised the former wales rugby captain, Gareth Thomas, for revealing hes hiv positive. The duke of cambridge tweeted saying the sportsman was a legend on the pitch and legend off it, and that he had the support of the royal family. Thomas, who once captained the british and irish lions, came out as gay at the end of his playing career. Daniel davies reports. Ive got hiv, and its ok, like. That is what i want to learn more than anything. Its a secret he tried to keep to himself and those closest to him. But now, Gareth Thomas is telling the world. This is how he came to fame, breaking records on the rugby pitch. Today, he is racing in the ultra endurance Ironman Wales triathlon, he says, to help break the stigma of hiv. A bbc documentary shows his preparation, and his worry that his medical status would be disclosed against his will. A huge hero in our family. One of my fears is that. That will kind of go and all of a sudden who i was prior to people knowing i have hiv might be forgotten and that will potentially deter people from wanting to be associated or be around me. In fact, since early this morning, theres been huge support for the as year old, who compared making this announcement to coming out as gay ten years ago. It is hugely significant for somebody with such a high profile to talk about living with hiv. Medical advances means now someone on effective treatment can have a normal life span, and really importantly, they cant transmit the virus to their partners. But the stigma associated with hiv hasnt shifted at all. Thomas is one of an estimated 100,000 people in the uk living with hiv. He hopes his gruelling day will show those people should not be limited by their condition. Daniel davies, bbc news, tenby. The headlines on bbc news.

Tyson furys potential rematch with Deontay Wilder may be delayed after he suffered a serious cut in his win overnight in las vegas. He overcame the injury to beat swedish heavyweight 0tto wallin on points. Fighting on for more than nine rounds without being able to see out of his right eye. The cut needed constant attention from both trainer and doctor throughout. With the vaseline applied being so considerable it kept dropping off. And failing to stem the tide of blood. Had the fight been brought to an end because of the cut fury would have lost his unbeaten record. And sensing he might need a knockout. The british fighter rallied in the later stages. Eventually fury was awarded the victory by unanimous decision. But went straight to hospital to have microsurgery on two cuts. They were two of the worst cuts i have ever seen in a fight where the quys have ever seen in a fight where the guys have gone one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine rounds with these wounds, with these gaping gashes. Quite extraordinary. Tyson fury never panicked once. He did dab relentlessly at his eye but he did not panic. That is just as well because the young swede, we have loads of cliches in boxing. The entire business is based around cliche. He came to fight, and he went down swinging. Tyson fury had to dig deep, and go back to the corner, try and be calm in the 60 seconds, as those cuts were healed momentarily for the next round. There was no panic that it was really tough throughout. Thats all of the sport, more in the next hour. The clear up operation is continuing, after parts of Southern Spain experienced some of the heaviest rainfall on record. Six people have lost their lives. The spanish Prime Minister, on a visit to the area, promised to do everything he could to help those affected. Simonjones reports. This is the dramatic moment a baby is rescued after the childs home became cut off by the rising water. 0thers clung on for safety as emergency workers navigated the flooding. The force of the water can be seen here in alicante, cars simply swept away as the river burst its banks. The spanish Prime Minister flew over some of the affected areas. When he touched down, he promised support. Translation first of all, i want to express the support of the Spanish Government and, i would add, the whole of the spanish people, to those affected in valencia and murcia and other areas of spain. Secondly, i want to express on behalf of the government our condolences to the families of those victims who unfortunately lost their lives in the past few days. Thousands of people were evacuated from their homes. When they returned to survey the damage it was all too much for some. Translation the force of the rain slowly became heavier. More of the Running Water came down and at one point it started rising to the level of the garden and up to the house. And, of course, there was a point where we decided to go up to the attic because we saw it was getting quite serious and we thought it would be best. The water levels remain dangerously high. For holiday makers flying in, hoping for some spanish sunshine, at the airport there was chaos and confusion. Because of the storms we got diverted to valencia and we were in valencia for what, how long . Four hours. So we are now stuck here for another four hours so its going to be eight hours in total. We dont how were going to get to our apartment. But many here are relieved they escaped with their lives. The forecast may be improving but the clean up operation wont be quick.
