Hello, im ben thompson. Youre watching the context on bbc news. A tense Stand Off In Tbilisi Hundreds Of Protesters clash with security forces, as georgia votes through a divisive law that critics say pushes the country closer to russia. Obesityjabs like wegovy and ozempic could cut the risk of Heart Attacks and strokes in people, even if they fail to lose much weight. Thats according to new analysis of a study, funded by drug manufacturer novo nordisk. The drug, semaglutide, suppresses appetite and has been used to aid weight loss. But researchers now say the weekly jabs could also benefit the heart health of millions of adults. Professorjohn deanfield led the work. It hasnt yet been published in a medicaljournal, but was presented at the European Congress on obesity. I think its a really important discovery. Its an important change because its the sort of thing we got with statins, when we, in the � 90s when statins came in, we finally figured out that there was a drug class that would change the barrage of this disease to benefit a lot of people. Dr Kath Mccullogh is Obesity Adviser to the Royal College of physicians and a consultant in bariatric medicine. Thank you for being with us. Let me put that to you, how significant is this, and we should say very early days, but a potential application of this drug notjust for weight loss but this drug not just for weight loss but for this drug notjust for weight loss but for heart health as well . This drug not just for weight loss but for heart health as well . Thank ou, aood but for heart health as well . Thank you, good evening. But for heart health as well . Thank you, good evening. The but for heart health as well . maria; you, good evening. The implications here are quite significant. I suppose these findings need to be replicated and further evidence to research looked at, but i think for the first time this is kind of suggestive that there is an independent effect on Cardiovascular Disease, and what i mean by that is that the benefits seem to be independent of weight loss. And until now, we know this class of drugs helps multiple core morbidities, multiple problems associated with obesity, such as diabetes and things like that, get better. But for the first time this has what seems to be an additional effect. D0 has what seems to be an additional effect. ~. ,. , effect. Do we know at this stage otential effect. Do we know at this Stage Potential side effect. Do we know at this Stage Potential side effects effect. Do we know at this Stage Potential side effects of effect. Do we know at this Stage Potential side effects of this effect. Do we know at this stage i potential side effects of this drug . If it has been touted as such a wonder drug, may be it should be put in the same category as aspirins or statins. What are the potential side effects of this . We statins. What are the potential side effects of this . Effects of this . We are fortunately that this class effects of this . We are fortunately that this class of effects of this . We are fortunately that this class of drugs effects of this . We are fortunately that this class of drugs have effects of this . We are fortunately that this class of drugs have been | that this class of drugs have been used for type two diabetes for around 15 years so were pretty good at knowing and to the communists side effects are nausea and vomiting, very much to do with abdominal symptoms. Vomiting, very much to do with abdominalsymptoms. So vomiting, very much to do with abdominal symptoms. So we already know about those kind of things. I think its important to know that as you quite rightly say, this is one drug amongst many thats used in the prevention of Cardiovascular Disease and the important thing really is to ascertain where these class of drugs would fit in amongst all the other medications that we know they can prevent Heart Attacks and strokes. Yes, and i suppose the message here, once again, is always just about prevention rather than cure, but we know some people are more predisposed to obesity or diabetes or some of these life changing illnesses. But should we see it as that saviour, or actually is this about education and about teaching for these problems become so endemic . I for these problems become so endemic . ~. , � , for these problems become so endemic . For these problems become so endemic . ~. , � , ~ , endemic . I think thats the key. Wed need endemic . I think thats the key. Wed need to endemic . I think thats the key. Wed need to look endemic . I think thats the key. Wed need to look at endemic . I think thats the key. I wed need to look at preventative strategies as well, and policies at a Government Level as well so that everybody on a Population Level has access to lifestyle and environment thatis access to lifestyle and environment that is conducive to increased exercise, healthy eating, looking at things more holistically. The idea that we just have a job or some kind of drug therapy thats going to cure everything, its not. And i think living with obesity and being overweight is a lot more than just eat less and exercise more, theres a lot of psychological and emotional needs that need to be met and thats why thats really important that these drugs are administered in a multidisciplinary sort of fashion in the avenues thats available to you. Really good to have you with us, from the Royal College of physicians.

A woman who saved her twin sister from a Crocodile Attack by repeatedly punching it in the face is going to get a medalfor bravery. Melissa laurie suffered these injuries to her leg, when she was attacked whilst swimming in Mexico Injune 2021. She was with her twin sister georgia, who decided to fight back. The twins, from berkshire, were on a Guided River Tour in this a lagoon near Puerto Escondido when the Crocodile Attacked. They told our correspondent, Judith Moritz what happened. Its little head poking out, with its two eyes looking at me. I thought, its a crocodile. I thought that one of us was going to die, ijust didnt know who it would be. Its going to get one of us, right . I wasjust, you know, you dont want it to be anyone, but you definitely dont want it to be your sister. What did you do . So ijust punched it a lot. I heard that you should punch a shark in the nose if it attacks you, and so ijust tried that. I sang to melissa, stand by me, and ijust keep singing the chorus on repeat, i wont be afraid, as long as you stand, stand by me. That song just mean so much to us as well ass bob marley, three little birds, dont worry about a thing, because every little thing is going to be all right. Well now, georgia will receive a medalfor bravery, after being named on King Charless first civilian gallantry list. Wow, rosa, rodney. The links you would go to look after a sibling or a loved one, but it does it extend to punching a crocodile in the face . I saw another interview with the twins and they said something really sweet, that you think you would panic and you wouldnt be able to handle it but in the end there is something very human about a life and about love and that kind of takes over. So yeah, i like to thank i would be able to punch the crocodile in the nose. It sounds like an absolutely horrendous experience so im glad shes getting honoured for it. But yeah, awful, awful and scary. find honoured for it. But yeah, awful, awful and scary honoured for it. But yeah, awful, awful and scary. And rodney, am i alone in not awful and scary.

Its interesting to see what alligator. Its interesting to see what twin alligator. Its interesting to see what twin siblings will go through to protect each other and this is one of to protect each other and this is one of those great examples that needs one of those great examples that needs to one of those great examples that needs to be highlighted, because its whats needs to be highlighted, because its whats happening good in the world, its whats happening good in the world, ratherthan its whats happening good in the world, rather than the constant bad that you world, rather than the constant bad that you say. World, rather than the constant bad that you say that you say. Yes, and thats what i would like to that you say. Yes, and thats what i would like to have that you say.

And of course getting that metal for bravery, king charles the first civilian gallantry. I wonder if he expected thats what he would be handing out awards for, but it takes all sorts doesnt it . Thank you both. And now in the context, its time for the panel. Hot off the heels of talking about the crocodile, weve got something very different. And rosa, i want to come to yours first. It is a really interesting one isnt it . We saw that whitehall was talking about lanyards, why, ill let you explain. But it was about Rainbow Lanyards and they know wont be banned. Explain whats going on here. Its explain whats going on here. Its on such a explain whats going on here. It� s on such a trivial think im having a big cabinet split about a lanyard, but actually, it speaks to the culture wars that are going on in britain and america and other parts of the world. So esther mcveigh, who is the ministerfor of the world. So esther mcveigh, who is the minister for common sense which is an extraordinary title, gave a speech in which she was talking about how she wanted Civil Servants officials to be focusing on theirjobs and not getting bogged down in right on wars, diversity and equality and so on, and one of the things she mentioned was that she didnt think officials should be wearing these Rainbow Lanyards. That provoked a response from some of her colleagues who said, that doesnt sound like common sense. Do we really want to be worrying about lanyards when there are all these other things we would have been talking about, wars around the world, Cost Of Living crisis. And ijust world, Cost Of Living crisis. And i just wanted to world, Cost Of Living crisis. And ijust wanted to highlight it because i thought it was such an interesting discussion. And because i thought it was such an interesting discussion. Interesting discussion. And the thin. Interesting discussion. And the thin im interesting discussion. And the thing im fascinated interesting discussion. And the thing im fascinated by interesting discussion. And the thing im fascinated by it, interesting discussion. And the thing im fascinated by it, she| interesting discussion. And the thing im fascinated by it, she said this isnt about not letting political views get in by the back door. But Government Policy on lgbt rights, thats not a political view try rights, thats not a political view by the doctor, its about diversity and inclusion which is Government Policy. And inclusion which is government oli. R , and inclusion which is government oli. � and inclusion which is Government Policy. And i guess also, if you want to dictate policy. And i guess also, if you want to dictate what policy. And i guess also, if you want to dictate what people i policy. And i guess also, if you | want to dictate what people can policy. And i guess also, if you want to dictate what people can and cant work, thats also a Government Policy. That seems to be what the defence secretary grant shapps, he is the one thats going and talking to people in ukraine, people in israel. He clearly didnt have time for this and so it is a bit of nonsense. Esther mcveigh, ithink she sought a different way. She thought the Civil Service werent focusing on the countrys priorities. And i think, id be interesting to note what rodney thinks if its an interesting thing going on in the states. And thinks if its an interesting thing going on in the states. And thats it, isnt it . Going on in the states. And thats it, isnt it . People going on in the states. And thats it, isnt it . People will going on in the states. And thats it, isnt it . People will have going on in the states. And thats it, isnt it . People will have their| it, isnt it . People will have their opinions but this isnt about an opinions but this isnt about an opinion and its about a Government Policy. Itjust so happens that that lanyard, can you believe we are talking about a lanyard, Rainbow Coloured Lanyard Has caused such divisions. But its an Election Year, everything is fair game, isnt it . It year, everything is fair game, isnt it . ,. , it . It truly is. I went through five very heavily it . It truly is. I went through five very heavily contested it . It truly is. I went through five very heavily contested congressional campaigns during my ten year career in congress. Campaigns during my ten year career in congress, and its issues like this that in congress, and its issues like this that rise to the forefront of media this that rise to the forefront of Media Inquiries and questions that i would Media Inquiries and questions that i would continue to have to answer that have would continue to have to answer that have really nothing to do with my ability that have really nothing to do with my ability to govern or pass new laws my ability to govern or pass new laws or my ability to govern or pass new laws or amend existing laws. But this is laws or amend existing laws. But this is i laws or amend existing laws. But this is i think, an example of where government this is i think, an example of where governmentjust goes too this is i think, an example of where government just goes too far. Free speech government just goes too far. Free speech should be free speech. Somebody should have the right to wear a somebody should have the right to wear a rainbow lanyard, just like they wear a rainbow lanyard, just like they should have the right to wear a british flag they should have the right to wear a british flag lanyard, or an american fla british flag lanyard, or an American Flag lanyard or an israeli flag lanyard, flag lanyard or an israeli flag lanyard, thats what free speech in america lanyard, thats what free speech in america and the uk is all about. And rodne , america and the uk is all about. And rodney. Your america and the uk is all about. fific rodney, your time for america and the uk is all about. fific rodney, your time for the panel is, and weve touched on this already, but it was the number of politicians lining up next to donald trump at his trial. They say they are there to support him, but they might have had other things in mind, too. Just exlain. Had other things in mind, too. Just exolain well. Had other things in mind, too.

Its amazing to me become Vice President. Its amazing to me and become Vice President. Its amazing to me and we did mention this earlier. To me and we did mention this earlier, that while a former president and current candidate for a major president and current candidate for a major party who is leading in many of the a major party who is leading in many of the major a major party who is leading in many of the major polls, why he would have of the major polls, why he would have his of the major polls, why he would have his potential Vice President ial candidate have his potential Vice President ial candidate come stand behind him at his trial candidate come stand behind him at his trial is candidate come stand behind him at his trial is a candidate come stand behind him at his trial is a new four United States his trial is a new four United States politics.

Thanks to have you with us, well see you soon. Will have your headlines very soon, for now, bye bye. Hello from the bbc sport centre, im marc edwards. Straight to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium where were into the final stages of the Crucial Premier League match between spurs and Manchester City. A reminder of whats at stake, a win for Pep Guardiolas side a win for Pep Guardiolas side would see them go two points clear of arsenal. And despite spurs dominating possession for much of the match, its city who look like theyll be hedaing into the final day of the league sat at the top, this tap in from Erling Haaland after 51 minutes set up by kevin de bruyne, before the norwegian doubled the lead from the penalty spot. Five and a half minutes to go, a win for Manchester City, a blow to arsenal it looks like. The title race is still alive in scotland but only just for rangers. They looked to be handing the title to celtic when they went 2 0 down at home to dundee. But they got one back before half time and then four more goals followed after the break scott wright with two of them. 5 2 the final score rangers go three points behind celtic although Brendan Rodgers side will win the title if they avoid defeat at kilmarnock tomorrow. Meanwhile raith rovers are a step closer to a return to scotlands top division for the First Time Since 2013. They beat Partick Thistle 2 1 in the first leg of their relegation play off. The second leg is on friday and the winner of the tie will face the team who finishes 11th in the premiership currently stjohnstone. While over in spain, Jude Bellingham remains in golden boot contention. His 19th goal of the season has helped real madrid lead 3 0 against alaves. Bellingham is now one goal behind the leagues top scorer, gironas artem dovbyc with two games left. The english midfielder also has an assist for the spanish champions. After seven months away, englands world cup captain Millie Bright is back in the squad. The chelsea defender has been out with a knee injruy but is fit to return for their upcoming euro 2025 qualifiers. Manager Sarina Wiegman has also included brights club team mate Aggie Beever Jones For The First Time after scoring 11 goals in the wsl this season. I think she has had a very great improvement, where she developed so well, last year and everton alone, in the chelsea squad and shes just done really well. Im hoping she comes in and just goes out on the pitch and play was that she can play on the side, on the centre and im looking forward to it. The department for culture, media and sport has been hearing evidence today on the proposed bill to bring in an independent Football Regulator to govern the top five divisions ensuring its operational independence and accountability. Rick parry, chair of the english football league, supports the introduction of a regulator saying change is needed. We view it positively, everything we found so far in terms of engagement with the cms in terms of the shadow body that is the regulator, is that all of these concerns can be addressed. Its going to be a tougher environment, but football needs a tougher environment. Weve had 30 years to get this right and we failed. A man arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over the death of ice hockey player adam johnson has had his bail extended again. Johnson died last october aged 29, after being struck in the neck with a skate in a match between the Nottingham Panthers and the sheffield steelers. South Yorkshire Police said a man who was arrested in november had been re bailed until the 26thjune As The Complex Investigation continues. Its been a day of big name english exits in rugby unions premiership. Wingerjonny may will leave gloucester at the end of the season, while Brothers Billy and Mako Vunipola will both depart saracens at the end of the current campaign. Mako has been with the club for 13 years, with billy there for ii. None of the three players have said where theyll be playing their rugby next season. Theres been disappointment for ireland as they lost their t20 Series Decider against pakistan in dublin. Ireland batted first setting pakistan 179 to win but it was never enough. Pakistan chasing down their target with six wickets in hand and three overs to spare. The teams will meet again in the group stage at next months t20 world cup. And well finish where we started with football and some good for fans of the fa cup. Bbc sport will continue showing the competition on free to air television after agreeing a four year deal with Tnt Sports Which begins next year. Under the partnership, the bbc will screen fourteen games per season, including the final at wembley. And just enough time to say, theres a couple of minutes left at Tottenham Hotspur stadium, Manchester City still leads 2 0, so they take a two point advantage over arsenal. But from all of us of the bbc sport centre, thats all for now. Hello there, good evening. It was cool and cloudy for many of us today with outbreaks of rain quite heavy through the morning from a front gradually pushing northwards and eastwards. North yorkshire under the front, staying rather damp and murky through the afternoon. Some of the bluest of the skies, best of the sunshine, highest temperatures were across Northern Areas of scotland and not much is set to change as we head through the next few days. It will generally stay unsettled showers at times, also some sunny spells, but sunniest across northern scotland, cooler and cloudier for eastern facing coasts with plenty of threat moving in from the north sea and a southeasterly wind. Heres our area of low pressure just spinning around, sending this front out towards the north and the east. But its pretty much stationary as we head through tonight. It will still be given some rain at times, but a lot of that rain tending to fade. Second pulse may be moving into parts of east anglia, up through the midlands as we head through the small hours of tomorrow morning. So, it stays rather damp, but certainly mild. Temperatures in double figures, a little bit of mist perhaps, where we see the clearest of the skies further west and then into tomorrow. Now, its a very murky start for these eastern facing coasts, lots of low cloud here. Therell be further spells of Rain Across East Anglia stretching up through in the midlands, perhaps into northwest england to the north and the south of the front. A lot of dry weather, always the chance of one or two showers, particularly sharp, perhaps across parts of Northern Ireland, but some sunny spells as well. Best of the sunshine for scotland, where we could get to highs of 23 or even 2a celsius later on through the afternoon. On thursday, the focus of the showers will tend to be across central areas of the uk. Again, its largely dry for scotland as scattering of showers across the south, but also some sunny spells, and of course the sunshine will help to lift the temperature highs high teens, late 20s again in celsius, so just slightly above the seasonal average. As we head through the rest of the week, then our area of low pressure just gradually sinks further southwards towards the near continent. We see High Pressure build into the north, so here, its likely to stay mostly dry as we head through the weekend. So, if we just take a look at scotland, Northern Ireland lots of dry weather and it will feel warm in the best of the sunshine, whereas further south, although temperatures remain above the average, there will be some showers. Bye bye. Tonight at 10 00 a huge manhunt is underway in france after Prison Officers are killed in an ambush. The moment a car rams the prison van in Northern France gunmen then attack and kill two officers. Inside was this man known as the fly being taken from court to prison.
