Borisjohnson says his opponents are damaging the chances of getting a good brexit deal with brussels. The Prime Ministers promised a renewed effort to get an agreement before the deadline at the end of october. Hes facing fierce opposition to his decision to suspend or prorogue parliament, and among those opposing the move is the former conservative Prime Minister sirjohn major whosjoined a legal case at the high court. Our Political CorrespondentJonathan Blake reports. Chanting stop the coup in manchester. Chanting stop the coup in london. Boris out and right on the Prime Ministers doorstep, anger and outrage this week at his decision to suspend parliament, but borisjohnson says it is mps, not him, that are raising the chances of leaving the eu without a deal. The more the parliamentarians try to block the no deal brexit, the more likely it is that well end up in that situation, so, the best thing now is for us to get on and make our points to our european friends with clarity and with vigour, and thats what were doing. The decision to shut up shop here for five weeks took many by surprise. Now labour is urging more action against what it says is a government acting unlawfully. Well use any means necessary to prevent this undemocratic behaviour. And that includes people taking to the streets, that includes people taking to the airways, that includes people going to court. But protests and legal challenges aside, mps know if they want to stop a no deal brexit, they will have to do something about it in parliament. Those hoping to force a change in the law are finalising their plans. I hope that parliament will take a series of actions in a proper, orderly way that, by the end of the week, mean that Boris Johnson knows that, as Prime Minister, he has the backing of many of us to get a deal but if he doesnt get a deal, he is going to have to seek an extension. Efforts to achieve a new deal are stepping up. Uk and eu officials will meet twice a week in brussels from now on but, despite warmer words from european leaders, the two sides are still far apart on the key Sticking Point of keeping an open border between Northern Ireland and the republic of ireland. At the moment, nothing credible has come from the British Government in the context of an alternative to the backstop and, you know, if that changes, great, we will look at it in dublin, but, more importantly, it can be the basis of a discussion in brussels. But its got to be credible. So, no sense of a breakthrough soon, and back here, a government determined to stick to a deadline, parliament intent on imposing its will. Jonathan blake, bbc news. Lets get more from Jonathan Blake in westminster now. Next week is potentially the last week for this parliament before it is supposed to be suspended. And, frankly, it could be a huge week in terms of brexit. It is going to be a very big week ahead. At the moment the Brexit Process feels like traffic moving along a motorway, pulling back and overtaking, but everyone going at roughly the same speed waiting for a breakthrough. You have heard in the report about brussels saying they are willing to talk but no major shift in position. Downing street describing that is going on to a football pitch and not wanting to be shown the red card straightaway which is why they are going into these preparatory talks are tentatively hoping for a shift before that summit scheduled in mid october. Back here at westminster over the next week, it will be about who wins the argument, the government saying they are determined to deliver by the end of october come what may whether it is with a new deal or without. Parliament and mps saying they have to avoid a no deal brexit at all costs. It may be about who shouts the loudest or who makes the smartest moves. Eu Foreign Ministers meeting in hel helsinki say the uk has not yet presented any credible alternatives to the irish backstop. Our europe correspondent Damian Grammaticas is there. The backstop is seen as the big blockage to a potential deal but a suggestion from other members of the eu is britain hasnt come forward with an alternative. That is exactly what they have said, i asked all the Foreign Ministers we could arriving this morning whether they had heard anything to make them think a deal is likely all the process is moving forward and all those eu Foreign Ministers gathering here in helsinki said, no detail, no. The dutch, belgians all said they had not seen any detailed proposals from the uk side although the uk once these talks next week. The Irish Foreign minister said he thought the eu would be open to five days a week of talks if necessary because the eu wants a deal, but the problem is that no credible proposals have been put on the table by the uk side. And he reiterated a credible process has to deal with the irish border issue. It is sounding familiar to before with theresa may when there was lots of talk about negotiations, the problem is, nothing on the table and still a blockage in parliament. Thank you. A judge at scotlands highest civil court has rejected a request to put an immediate block on Boris Johnsons decision to suspend parliament. The court will instead hear full arguments next week. A Cross Party Group of more than 70 mps and peers is asking the court to rule that it would be illegal and unconstitutional for the government to suspend parliament, limiting the amount of time mps have to debate brexit. Lorna gordon reports. It is scotlands highest civil court. Decisions made here can reverberate far beyond this cobbled square. Few, though, as potentially far reaching as this. The decision made today to wait untilfull arguments can be heard, with the judge refusing to order a temporary halt to plans to shut down parliament. I am not satisfied that it has been demonstrated that there is a cogent need for interim suspension or interim interdict to be granted at this stage. Lawyers acting for the government said proroguing is an exercise the queen alone can enter into based on the governments advice, and it is not a matter for the court. Pro remain campaigners outside those court disagreed, while inside, lawyers acting for those seeking to stop the proroging of parliament argued that the advice given to the queen was unlawful, and unconstitutional, and motivated by a desire to restrict parliaments ability to hold the government to account. Those behind the action called on the Prime Minister to submit a sworn statement to court on the reasoning behind his decision. This Prime Minister doesnt behave as other Prime Ministers do, but i think if he believes that he has a good case for prorogation, he should have the guts to swear an affidavit as to the reasons for that prorogation. A spokesperson for the government said, we are glad the court found against the interdict, adding that there was no good reason to seek one, given the full hearing is due to take place next week. That hearing will now take place next tuesday, with a ruling delivered soon after. Lord doherty said it was in the interests of justice and in the Public Interest that the case proceeds as soon as it can. Lorna gordon, bbc news, at the court of session in edinburgh. Our Legal Affairs correspondent Clive Coleman is here. The significance of that court of session ruling in scotland, how powerful is it . What has happened here is the petitioners have sought and emergency injunction at an early stage of proceedings, they have failed in that but it is far from over. Now, we get this full hearing on tuesday and if the petitioners succeed in getting a ruling which says that the advice given by Boris Johnson to the queen was unlawful, then, that, the government could appeal that but pending any appeal, it pulls the queen into the political arena, puts her in the uncomfortable position of having passed an order based on unlawful advice. That is a fascinating constitutional playing out we will see next week. It is far from over. The government has had some success in arguing this is a lawful use of prerogative powers to suspend parliament and this is a matter not for the course. The case in scotland, Northern Ireland and london, sirjohn major hasjoined ireland and london, sirjohn major has joined the case in ireland and london, sirjohn major hasjoined the case in london alongside gina miller who has already won a famous Brexit Court Case in the high court, has significant is his involvement . Her case is about proving the unlawful intention behind seeking the suspension of parliament. Intention is a difficult thing to prove. If you have in your back pocket not just a prove. If you have in your back pocket notjust a former Prime Minister but a former conservative Prime Minister, if he says the only basis on which this could have been done was to reduce the amount of parliamentary time for mps to debate brexit options, that is very powerful. Thank you. A Major International study has found that women who have menopausal hormone therapy experience an increased risk of developing Breast Cancer for more than a decade after treatment ends. Researchers from the university of oxford who looked at more than 100,000 women from around the world estimate a million cases of Breast Cancer may have been caused by the treatment since the 1990s. Heres james gallagher. Louise rivers started having symptoms of menopause three years ago. She says she lost her brain and was struggling to work. Herjoints ached, she was not sleeping well and she began to get migraines. Louise says starting hormone therapy last year was a difficult decision, but the right one. I definitely feel as if my concentration levels are back where they were a few years ago. I feel a lot more confident working. I still have a few bad days here and then, still get some migraines, but overall, i feel much better taking it than i did before when i wasnt taking it. It has long been known that menopausal hormone therapy increases the risk of cancer. The latest study shows the increased risk lasts more than a decade after stopping the drugs, and that the dangers are twice as high as previously thought. It means for every 50 50 year olds taking daily oestrogen and progesterone therapy for five years, one would have a cancer caused by their hormone therapy before they turn 70. We dont want to alarm women, but we dont want to give them false reassurance about the risks associated with hrt. What we would hope is that women would use this information to make a much more informed decision about whether or not they want to start taking hrt or perhaps continue taking hrt. Doctors say the risks and benefits of treatment need to be balanced for each individual patient. As clinicians, we are looking at women, so when you have got a woman in front of you who feels absolutely dreadful because she has gone through the menopause, then, you need to help her, and she needs to make the decision, do i want to feel better, do i want to have a better quality of life . Louise says she found the latest findings concerning, but that she was not going panic. Taking hormones improved her quality of life and she plans to chat to her consultant at their next appointment. James gallagher, bbc news. The bbcs head of statistics robert cuffe is here. Some of these figures look alarming, how did the researchers reach their findings . That one in 15 number, let us look at the data to see how they arrived at the data to see how they arrived at that conclusion. A 50 year old woman who hit menopause, but does not take hrt, on the left, 63 will be expected to experience Breast Cancer. If they take oestrogen for five years, that goes up to 68, an increase of five cases for 1000 women. The most commonly prescribed oestrogen and progesterone, it goes all the way up to 83, an extra 20 cases per 1000 women. One in 50. It is clear those risks depend what drugs you are on and other factors, drinking, weight, when the menopause started. Taking the one in 15 number away, it is important women discuss this with their gp. Police in hong kong have stepped up their crackdown on pro democracy demonstrations, by arresting three leading activists. Two have appeared in court, charged with organising an illegal protest. Another march is planned tomorrow, despite the authorities banning the protest and police have warned that anyone taking part is likely to face arrest. From hong kong, John Mcdonell reports. Activists descended on Police Headquarters five weeks ago as part of hong kongs ongoing political crisis. Police stations have been marked out for special attention here, with many in the Pro Democracy Movement calling for fellow protesters already detained to be released. Amongst those seen outside this building on the 21st ofjune was pro democracy campaignerjoshua wong. For this, according to his party, the high profile figure was snatched off the street this morning as he walked to an underground train station. He was then forced into an unmarked van and driven away by police officers. All we ask for is just to urge beijing and Hong Kong Government to withdraw the bill, stop Police Brutality and respond to our calls for a free election. Even i have beenjailed three times and i need to face a trial on the 8th of november, which means three months later, but we still keep on our fight. We shall not surrender. Joshua wong and fellow demosisto leader agnes chow have been charged with inciting others to participate in Unlawful Assembly and also knowingly taking part in such a gathering. Hong kong police say they are not taking sides in this dispute, but that when people break the law, they will be punished. In an off the record briefing inside the barricaded Police Headquarters building, officers told us that todays arrests were not part of some broad crackdown on the Pro Democracy Movement. However, when you consider the arrests in connection with the prohibition of a planned mass march on the weekend, many are predicting this could spark yet more violence in this city over the coming days. In defending the decision to refuse permission for tomorrows march, police said that a large, peaceful rallies in the city have been leading to street clashes. They are threatening more arrests if protesters turn out to march illegally. But such threats have been ineffective in recent weeks and seem highly unlikely to work this time.

A state of emergency has been declared, and donald trump has cancelled a planned trip to poland. Dorian is set to sweep through the bahamas, and is expected to reach the us mainland early next week. Lets get more now from ben rich from the bbc weather centre. How worried should people be in florida . I think people in florida are right to be preparing for this storm, it is already a strong storm and it is only set to get stronger.
