Call starting with the claims from the former president about suitcases full of ballots. Mr trump also made claims about so called dead voters. Mr raffensperger did push back against mr trump in the call. And in the most pointed exchange,of the call trump spelled out how many voters he needed. Stephen loosley an analyst in us politics at the United States studies centre in sydney laid out the legal dilemmas mr trump now faces. It isa it is a very serious indictment for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is a number of reasons. Firstly, it is a Racketeering Charge under Georgia State law, Racketeering Legislation is modelled on the originalfederal legislation designed to bring down the mafia. The problem that donald trump faces is generally a conviction under legislation in georgia leads to a prison sentence, Thatis Georgia leads to a prison sentence, that is not certain, but that is the probability, secondly, mark meadows, the former chief of staff in the Trump White House is amongst the 18 other people who have been indicted. He is a very senior official from the Trump Administration and that is different. And you have a circumstance of course, this is a Georgia State, if convicted, even if re elected to the white house, november of next year, during the second term, President Trump could not pardon himself. They would be enormous pressure on the governor of georgia to do so but it is dimensionally different these charges against what happened in new york orfederally under charges against what happened in new york or federally under the watch of space so penciljack smith. Here, a Childrens Charity says theres been a sharp rise in cases of online grooming and that mps must now back changes to the law. The nspcc says there were more than 6 thousand offences involving Sexual Communications with children last year, a rise of 82 per cent since the offence was introduced in 2017. This is an urgent issue. We cannot have another year go by where we continue to see such a high number of offences being recorded. It is why, come september, we need to see the bill passed into law so that the regulator ofcom can start taking action to regulate Tech Companies. It also shows why Tech Companies can and should be active today to really look at their platforms, look at where the risks to children are emerging and putting mitigations in place. They really do have the resources and the expertise to do that and that is why we want to see action now. Our Technology Editor Zoe Kleinmanjoined Me A Short Time ago heres what she had to say on the rise. 311,000 cases reported to uk Police Forces across england, wales, scotland and Northern Ireland since 2017. That was the year the government started working on the Online Safety bill which has the ambition of protecting children from online harms. It has been back and forward, it is had 1 million rewrites, so much debate, it is now due to be passed into law in the autumn we think although obviously that will not be set in stone until it happens. Some of the clauses in it are controversial and privacy campaigners in particular see that they threaten to weaken privacy for everyone because what they want to do is to insist Tech Companies can access the content of private messages sent between individuals if they are is a child safety concern. Currently, they cannot do that, it is impossible, many of the most popular apps like whatsapp run on end to end encryption so if i send you a message, only my phone and your phone read the message. Meta which owns Whatsapp Cannot see the message itself. Other platforms says it is a Privacy Service that is popular with people and protects vulnerable people, victims of domestic abuse, political activists working in countries where their views could be dangerous for them, journalists, anyone who has a reason for that level of privacy but everybody. Nobody wants people reading the messages. What the Tech Company Say is there is no tech solution, they either break the encryption and weaken privacy for everyone or they remain unable to view the messages which is of course not what the government is going to insist if it thinks its necessary. Joining me now is emma hardy, Communications Director for the Internet Watch Foundation. Talk us through what exactly you are asking for to be included in this safety bill. Asking for to be included in this safety bill safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation is safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation is the safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation is the uk safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation is the uk body,. Safety bill. The internet Watchi Foundation is the uk body, we safety bill. The Internet Watch Foundation is the uk body, we work internationally to find and remove images and videos of child sexual abuse from the internet. The Online Safety bill has been going on for many years now and we have campaigned to see it is going on too long, but we are nearly there. Hopefully the bill will pass before the kings speech in november. What we are looking for is that the bill is fit for purpose ultimately and that it is fit for purpose ultimately and thatitis is fit for purpose ultimately and that it is flexible and it can take into account a number of new and emerging technologies and threats, and end to end encryption which is the kind that was described before, in whatsapp, we want to ensure that child sexual abuse material cannot be freely exchanged in these environments. We are accustomed to these companies being able to protect us from malware and fishing, so why not also protect us from child sexual abuse material and protect those children putting them at the heart of their services and solutions. We know the technology does exist, cant exist, can be developed by these companies and actually we feel it is a Policy Decision that companies are taking do not ensure that before child sexual abuse enters an end to end encrypted environment, it can be detected, and therefore, it can be prevented from circulating. Last year we found more than 255,000 pages containing anything from one to thousands of individual images of child sexual abuse. We should not allowing there to be safe havens within the services that we use in the uk, particularly knowing that the uk, particularly knowing that the National Crime agency say there are between 500 550000 and 850,000 people with the sexual interest in children. We have to Work Together with Technology Companies that suits us all and better protect us but ultimately with regard to the Online Safety bill, it needs to be flexible, it needs to be able to take into account these emerging and changing technologies. find account these emerging and changing technologies technologies. And these technologies, technologies. And these technologies, we technologies. And these technologies, we heard| technologies. And these | technologies, we heard a technologies. And these technologies, we heard a lot technologies. And these technologies, we heard a lot about earlier, our Technology Editor, end to end encryption, we see a lot of this, we see it on our whatsapp, on our telephones, what are the risks when it comes to enter into encryption . We risks when it comes to enter into encryption . Risks when it comes to enter into encryption . We all love and enoy standard encryption i encryption . We all love and enoy standard encryption which is h encryption . We all love and enjoy standard encryption which is Whatj Encryption . We all love and enjoy i standard encryption which is what we have with their Banking Services, we want to ensure no one can hack into our Banking Services online, but we also need our bank to be able to know where we are moving money from one account to another. End to end encryption is different, if it was employed over your bank, the bank would be doing this, you cannot see anything. That is what happens in enter into encrypted messages, the provider of the service, cannot see anything that is being transmitted, only you and the other person that is receiving or people receiving a message, that means that for example someone who has a sexual interest in children that wants to share images like that with another person, that wants to sell it for commercial gain, we see this happening on commercial sites all the time, they will have a safe way of being able to, they already do have it in enter into encrypted environments, to share that image with other people, what we want to see which we think its reasonable, at the point of upload, for example into an end to end encrypted environment, there is something that scans, does not read messages, does not see what photographs you have on your phone, but scans against a list of known child child sexual abuse images turned into a code. It is playing a game of matching of codes. If a child sexual abuse image is detected, it cannot enter that environment and go through the tunnel. That is what we would like to see. That is what the rest of end to end encryption is. Over the years, we have worked incredibly successfully with Tech Companies, we were set up by the tech sector. We think there is a way we can do this, andindeed think there is a way we can do this, and indeed there was a Paper Written By A Leading Crypt officer earlier in the year that sets out what companies are able to do. And . Thank you very much for your thoughts on that. At the womens football world cup, sweden are playing spain in the semi final in auckland.

The Chief Constable simon byrne said he believed they would use the information which included the names of all Serving Officers to generate fear and intimidation. Simon jones has more. The worst fears of officers realised. After days of worry and uncertainty, confirmation that the personal details of 10,000 Police Service of Northern Ireland employees mistakenly posted online have been obtained by people who might want to do them harm. News revealed by the forces Chief Constable. We are now confident that the Workforce Data set is in the hands of dissident republicans, and its therefore planning assumption that they will use this list to generate fear and uncertainty as well as intimidating or targeting officers and staff. Sinn fein said extracts of the leaked information had been posted on a wall near a party office in belfast before being removed by staff. 0ne psni support worker, speaking anonymously, said the data leak had had a huge effect on his family. It has brought on a level of panic that hasnt been around for a lot of years. Its given my partner issues as well. Shes concerned and is extremely panicked about me going to work. In march, the Terrorist Threat level in Northern Ireland was raised to severe, meaning an attack is highly likely. That followed the shooting of a senior detective, john caldwell, by dissident republican paramilitaries. He suffered life changing injuries. The psni says its working round the clock to assess the risk created by the data breach. 0n social media, the Northern Ireland secretary, chris heaton harris, wrote. The uk government remains committed to providing specialist support and expertise. I know psni and Security Partners will continue to take proportionate action to protect officers and staff and theirfamilies. They are all now being urged to exercise maximum vigilance. Simon jones, bbc news. Today marks two years since the taliban takeover in afghanistan. The un says the country is experiencing one of the most severe humanitarian crises in the world, and has warned of a huge shortfall in funding amid a deepening economic crisis. Women and girls have also faced severe restrictions since the taliban came to power, including the banning of girls from secondary schools. Within a month of the takeover, secondary schools opened for boys following an education statement, which made no mention of girls. Women responded to restrictions with marches demanding the right to work and study. They were violently stopped by the taliban government on multiple occasions. In may last year, the government announced a decree mandating head to toe clothing for women. By october, a few months had passed without any major new restrictions. Girls, including those who had not completed their last year of school, were allowed to sit University Entrance exams. In november, a vice and Virtue Ministry spokesman said women had been banned from kabul parks because they were not following sharia. The ban was then implemented across afghanistan and women were also barred from gyms, Swimming Pools and public baths. And at the end of last year, all public and private universities were ordered to immediately suspend all female education until further notice. And injuly this year, the last few spaces where women could gather away from taliban scrutiny, hair and Beauty Salons, were ordered to shut down. Suppressing their rights to education and imposing strict dress codes. Earlierwe education and imposing strict dress codes. Earlier we heard from the founder and Executive Director of a project that supports the protection of women and girls in afghanistan. The other mac women cannot go to Beauty Salons and they cannot work in Beauty Salons any more. This Beauty Salons and they cannot work in Beauty Salons any more. In Beauty Salons any more. This is the first hit on the private sector. Of course, they also have other dynamics. Places where women convene, where they do make up and things that the taliban are against four other reasons. It also means that above 10,000 Women Lost Theirjobs in one fell swoop. Two weeks ago. The project where we support women who are leading families on their own income, they have no male breadwinner, we have seen pouring in women who used to have livelihoods come to us for support because they can no longer support large families. It is both the diminishing of rights is absolutely alarming, but some also the fact that any opportunity for women to have a livelihood has been taken away. Like ou sa , livelihood has been taken away. Like you say. You livelihood has been taken away.

In many cases, suicide attempts, the horror of having their girls aged ten, 11, 12 not allowed to school while their boys are allowed to go to school, same with brothers. Most often, men talk about their sisters and their mothers and how they want them to have opportunities. Before we go, we have to show you, it is full time at the womens world cup.

This is a first for spain as they go through to the final and a quick reminder, england kicked off tomorrow morning at 11 oclock where they will play australia and no doubt, it is going to be a nail biting match. Now its time for a look at the weather hello again. Over the next few days it looks very much like the weather will turn a bit warmer and in the south, more humid especially so on friday. But today what we have got is this low pressure now moving toward scandinavia allowing High Pressure to build in from the atlantic so the weather is fairly settled. What we have essentially is a day of sunshine and showers. The showers are well scattered and the heaviest ones will be across North East England and also South East Scotland where you can also hear the odd rumble of thunder. Lighter winds than yesterday with highs of 15 25. As we head into the overnight most of the daytime showers will tend to fade. We will hang on to more cloud at times across the north east of scotland. That could produce patchy light rain and will also see some mist and fog patches form in parts of the west and south. 0vernight lows falling away to between 10 13, may be 1a degrees. So into tomorrow, the High Pressure will be sitting right across us, hardly a breath of wind. You can see the distinct lack of isobars so tomorrow again is going to be another settled day. We start off and hang onto this cloud across North East Scotland with the odd spot of rain and as more cloud bubbles up through the day, we could see one or two showers develop but they will be fewer and further between than today and we are looking at highs 14 26. As we move on into thursday, we still are under the influence of High Pressure so a lot of settled conditions. You can see the onshore flow coming in from the north sea so its going to feel cooler along the north sea coastline. We could catch the odd shower through the channel. South west england, wales and into scotland. But it changes on friday. Two weather fronts coming our way one after the other. Both bringing some heavy and persistent rain. It could be thundery, as well. In between, a Dry Interlude but it wont be long before the next batch of rain comes in and both are heading northwards so the driest conditions will be across the far north of scotland and its also going to be humid in the south with highs potentially 26 27. On saturday, that rain eventually clears the far north of scotland and then we are into sunshine and showers. And a lot of the showers on sunday will be in the north and the west. Live from london, this is bbc news. Three suspected spies for russia are arrested in the uk and charged in a Major National security investigation.
