programme. iam a very warm welcome to the programme. i am sally bundock. president biden is finishing up his visit to the hawaiian island of maui where he's offered support following deadly wildfires. nearly two weeks after the disaster which has killed at least 114 people, he's named a federal response co—ordinator and says the island's critical infrastructure will be made more resilient. during the visit the president toured the devastated town of lahaina, meeting with first responders. he's faced criticism for his handling of the federal response to the wildfires after not speaking publicly about the crisis for days. the president has also attended a community reception where he's addressed a crowd under a banner reading: "lahaina strong". speaking in front of the island's famous banyan tree, mr biden said his government is committed to the recovery. we're focused on what's next — that's rebuilding for long—term and doing it together to help get us back on our feet to rebuild the way we want to rebuild. but i also want all of you to know the country grieves with you, stands with you, and will do everything possible to help you recover, rebuild, and respect culture and traditions when the rebuilding takes place. the state's governor, josh green, took part in mr biden�*s tour, and spoke after president biden with this message for tourists. all of the other areas of maui, friends, and the rest of hawaii are safe. they are open, they are safe. they are open, they are available. the mystique and love here, the aloha is here for you and the reason i say thatis for you and the reason i say that is because when you come you will support our local economy and help speed the recovery of the people that are suffering right now. live now to los angeles to speak to our north america correspondent, peter bowes. you could see president biden was clearly moved by the devastation by what he saw. he sought aerial views and was on the ground. talk to us through how this trip went.— the ground. talk to us through how this trip went. yes, you're riaht, how this trip went. yes, you're right. he _ how this trip went. yes, you're right. he was _ how this trip went. yes, you're right, he was clearly _ how this trip went. yes, you're right, he was clearly moved i how this trip went. yes, you're right, he was clearly moved byi right, he was clearly moved by what he saw. he said it was overwhelming, the amount of destruction that he saw, and he did see that the charred wreckage of a town that was so vibrant, so part of the ancient culture of this part of hawaii, maui, that you couldn't fail to be moved by the devastation and he acknowledged that and he saw that and i think this trip was in part to clearly play the role that presidents do after a terrible tragedy of this kind, the consoler in chief is often how they are described, living in a certain amount of time, a couple of weeks in this case not to get on the way of rescuers and investigators in the first few days, there is a huge contingent of people who willjoin the president, lots of security, so leaving it a little bit of time, but also an opportunity to perhaps answer some of those critics, not only critics of his personal response, not commenting for a few days, while he was on holiday, but also critics of the federal government's response that has not been strong enough, that it has not been big enough to some extent it has not had the quad nation that some local people wanted to see. the other element of a trip like this is simply to grieve. with the local people. you could see that in the eyes of the people who were standing alongside the president and in the president's own response. also the first ladyjill biden with him given the criticism you mentioned, how has this been received, his trip there, another they are leaving, what are people saying about it? there been a mixed response and clearly there are some people who been convinced by what they heard from president biden. he could see that in the crowd and in terms of how they responded but others were welcoming, we certainly had from the government some very positive words backing up the actions of president biden and the speed at which he responded, so in that respect i think he may have mended a few fences. one thing that really struck me in terms of what the president was saying, rebuilding and moving forward and all the efforts that were necessary in the months and many years in the future. he said local voices will be heard, local voices will be heard, local voices will be heard, local voices will be at the table when key decisions are being made and that been a big concern of the people on this island that they have, they are steeped in history and traditions and ways of doing things and yes, it's a big tourism resort, a big tourism attraction for people around the world, but what they don't want his developers coming in from the outside and making it into the kind of tourism resort that you might see anywhere in the world, they want to keep it special and they want to keep it hawaiian. absolutely, important they do so. peter, thank you. peter bowes, our north america correspondent. meanwhile, a clean—up is under way in the south—west of the us as the remnants of tropical storm hilary are now making their way north. it's now a post—tropical cyclone. these are some of the latest pictures coming from cathedral city, just outside of palm springs. torrential rain has covered much of this area in mud. many cars have been abandoned on the roads, but not all. here are at least two people still in a motorhome, calling for help on the outskirts of the city. in los angeles — a record was broken for the most rain ever on in august day. california's governor gavin

blazes. former president donald trump says he will head back to atlanta georgia thursday to turn himself in after his indictment there in georgia's probe into efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in the state. he's expected to be booked, fingerprinted, and photographed when he surrenders in atlanta. posting on his truth social platform, the former president described the case as a politically motivated witch—hunt. earlier, a judge set mr trump's bail at $200,000 and placed strict conditions on his use of social media. mr trump's appearance in court will be the morning after republican presidential candidates will take the stage for the first debate of the 2024 us campaign season in wisconsin. thailand's former prime minister, thaksin shinawatra, has returned home after 15 years of self—imposed exile. upon arrival, he was greeted by his supporters at bangkok's don muaeng airport. one of the most divisive figure in thai politics, his return comes as thailand's parliament will aim to resolve a political deadlock and vote for a new prime minister for the third time in three months. members of parliament are expected vote later to install the party's coalition candidate, the business tycoon, srettha thavisin, as prime minister. mr shinawatra faces a number of old criminal cases, which he says are politically motivated. mr shinawatra served as prime ministerfrom 2001 to 2006. prior to entering politics, he built a successful career as a business tycoon. he gained popularity for his implementation of populist policies aimed at addressing social inequalities. but his leadership was tarnished by allegations of corruption. in 2006, a military coup removed him from office, leading to a period of instability. he faced legal charges and went into self—imposed exile two years later, living mainly in dubai. an despite his absence from the country, he retained significant influence in thai politics through supporters and affiliated parties. live

thailand. thomas moore. it was a relatively _ thailand. thomas moore. it was a relatively subdued _ thailand. thomas moore. it was a relatively subdued arrival. - a relatively subdued arrival. it's been a deal that's been in the making for some time, there has to be a deal and the reason he has not come back despite promising to do so many times in the past was because of these criminal convictions that were imposed on him in his absence. there must be some kind of agreement whereby he does not read at present. he obviously believes that and has gone straight to the supreme court whetherjudges gone straight to the supreme court whether judges will decide what happens to him. there is a taylor allow people over 70 service centres in their homes with ankle bracelet, it's not sure what the final deal will be but it has been negotiated only have to look at it in the political contents were his party pheu thai party which won every election until the last one and was also opposed to military intervention in politics, it was champions democracy, nick champion progressive parties for the poor, is not as big a force as it was and is just about now to go into collision with its former anna meares with its former anna meares with the conservative royalist and pro— military parties that it's been fighting with sometimes with quite costly potty results for the last 15 years. so this appears to be part of a grand bargain were at the age of 7a mr thaksin can come back, he settles his differences with his old anna meares and all of a sudden the context of a new boystown, the party move forward which one the most seats and shocked everyone in the last election, is much more reformist than his party but has been blocked and corralled by conservatives and courts and various laws. thai politics has realigned as don mcgahn has made a more favourable environment thaksin favourable environment tha ksin to favourable environment thaksin to come back. a lot of his supporters are very loyal and have travelled a long way to see him. he couldn't greet them. he briefly pay tribute the king and the queen consort was whisked to court. we properly won't see

there is a lot going on in _ for a while. as you say there is a lot going on in the - is a lot going on in the politics in thailand now and wondering how that will impact the process that is under way where they are trying to establish their prime minister. once move forward which try to form government in partnership with mr thaksin's party pheu thai party, blocked by the senate, all parties have been negotiating seriously. their businessman candidate is supposed to be voted on later today, the official candidate put forward by the new coalition of pheu thai party and its former conservative enemies but i understand there's a lot more bargaining going on. we aren't sure who will be premised or if we will have a government by the end of the day. the bigger picture is thai politics has lived and mr thaksin has been a towering figure even in exile, and has been the bogeyman the royalists and conservatives have feared, justis and conservatives have feared, just is not the same force he once was and they wouldn't let it embark stop interesting. we will kee- it embark stop interesting. we will keep a _ it embark stop interesting. we will keep a close eye. jonathan head. world leaders have started arriving injohannesburg for a meeting of the brics nations — brazil, russia, india, china and south africa. these are pictures of china's leader xi jinping touching down ahead of proceedings starting later. the summit will shine a light on the member nations�* links with the kremlin. russian president vladimir putin was supposed to attend the summit in person but the international criminal court has issued a warrant for his arrest and south africa would have been under pressure to extradict him. so, putin will attend virtually instead. it is fascinating and a lot is at stake. let's hearfrom patrick gaspard, the president and ceo of the centerfor america in progress, and a former us ambassador to south africa. it is of course significant whenever brics comes together. as a formation, they represent 40% of the global population and a quarter of the world's gdp. as a bloc, brics now controls more of the global gdp than the g7 does and, of course, china is at the heart of that. this is really a consequential moment for the brics coalition, it is indeed intending to institutionalise its values that's projecting into the world. china's economy is incredibly wobbly at this moment. they have not recovered from the pandemic and, of course, russia, in the person of vladimir putin cannot even attend this summit because there is an arrest warrant from the icc of which south africa is a signatory. so china takes an outsize role, but other countries are not to be forgotten. you have such diversity in the brics coalition and while there may be nations like russia and china who intend to directly challenge the west, there are others like brazil and south africa and i include india as well as the nations who have a much more nuanced, much more complicated relationship with the west. south africa is in the midst of trying to renew the african growth and opportunity act, which gives them tax—free access to the us market. india's trade with the us is now tops 190 billion, we're their largest trade partners. there is a lot of complexity there and a good deal more nuanced. we will be live injohannesburg with more on the brics summit. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. let's look at some other stories making news. a ukjudge has ruled that the child killer lucy letby will never be released from prison. the 33—year—old former nurse was jailed for life for each of the murders of seven babies and the attempted murders of six more. letby refused to appear in court for the sentencing. manchester united and the striker mason greenwood have agreed it would be best for him to leave the club to continue his career. it follows an internal investigation at united into claims against him of attempted rape and coercive control. criminal charges against him, including attempted rape and assault, had already been dropped in february. the theft ofjewellery and gems from the british museum has been under police investigation since the start of the year the bbc has found, and police requested the case be kept from the public during inquiries. one member of staff has been sacked and some of the stolen items were found for sale on ebay. those are some of the leading stories here in the uk you're live with bbc news. a ten minute mri scan could be used to screen men for prostate cancer, according to a new study. the scans proved far more accurate at diagnosing cancer than blood tests which are widely used to check for the disease. it's the most common male cancer in the uk and kills 12,000 men across the country every year. here's our medical editor fergus walsh. paul rothwell�*s prostate cancer was caught early and successfully treated. it was diagnosed here at londonen's university college hospital when he took part in a trial using mri scans. the 62—year—old's cancer would have been missed if he'd only had the stand psa blood test, which came back as normal. if the stand psa blood

stories in a moment. —— business. hello there. we saw plenty of sunshine and some warmth around on monday across england and wales. top temperatures around 26 celsius across the south—east of england. over the next few days, the weather's looking pretty similar. most of the showers will be in the north and the west. further south and east that you are it will be warmer with more in the way of sunshine closer to this area of high pressure which is bringing heatwave conditions to the near continent, particularly france, spain into parts of italy. low pressure sitting to the north of the uk will bring stronger winds, more showers across northern and western areas, and that's how it's looking for tuesday. we start off again with some low cloud, mist and murk. the sunshine will come out in abundance through central southern areas and then become confined to southern england through the day. more cloud, i think, elsewhere. northern england, wales into scotland, northern ireland, most of the showers will be in the northwest corner where it'll be quite breezy. high teens here. low 20s for aberdeen. and we'll see those temperatures range from 23 to 26 degrees again, england and wales. as we head through tuesday night, the showers tend to fade away. we'll continue to see a few across northern and western areas and cluster of showers, even long spells of rain perhaps pushing into parts of wales as well, thanks to a weak weather front. but elsewhere it's dry, clear skies, variable cloud, temperatures low to mid—teens. and into wednesday, again, very little change, higher pressure to the south, lower pressure to the north. this weak weather from bringing thicker cloud towards wales and the south west of england. so we could start off with some rain across western wales on wednesday. few showers continuing northern western scotland, maybe northern ireland. but, again, majority of the country will see patchy cloud, some sunny spells. best of the sunshine towards the south and the southeast where we will see those temperatures again reaching around 25, 26, maybe 27 degrees. further north, it's the high teens, low 20s. now, beyond wednesday this is where we start seeing some changes. low pressure in the north gets its act together and starts to spread its way eastwards. that will send a weather front southwards. could see some big shells or thunderstorms late on thursday in the south. and then we're into a cooler north northwesterly wind regime for friday and into the weekend. you can see those orange colours ebbing southwards in towards the near continent's cooler colours. there you can see so it will feel cooler and fresher for the end of the week. i think for thursday, the last of the very warm days across the south—east for now. and then to things turn cooler and fresher for all areas with a mixture of sunshine and showers. live from london, this is bbc news. great expectations — british chip designer arm files in new york in what's
