Man city fans will be breathing a hefty sigh of relief, victoria. As you say, manchester united, Manchester City, surrey, were originally accused of breaching uefa financial fair play regulations. These rules are essentially trying to make sure clu bs essentially trying to make sure clubs spend within their means, dont get into serious Financial Difficulties and also to make sure wealthy owners dontjust pour money into football clu bs
wealthy owners dontjust pour money into Football Clubs and it was originally alleged in a series of lea ked originally alleged in a series of leaked e mails city had inflated the size of sponsorship deals so their owner could invest more money in the clu b owner could invest more money in the club than the rules allowed. Uefa found man city guilty of this, originally banned them from european football for two years and gave them a hefty fine, as well. City insist of the allegations were false, also the process had not been independent. They appealed to the court of arbitration for sport, there was a hearing last month, and that hearing has now produced a fantastic result as far as man city are concerned because that two year ban that they originally had been given has been lifted. The court of arbitration for sport said man city did not disguise funding as sponsorship contributions as had been alleged. They said they did fail to co operate the uefa authorities so the decision was
their exclusion from participation in Uefa Club Competitions was lifted, they still had a fine but it was reduced to 10 Million Euros and that will be a huge relief to man city fans. Had they been excluded from european football for the next two seasons, as from european football for the next two seasons, as was from european football for the next two seasons, as was originally the case, they would have lost millions of pounds potentially £100 million per season, but on top of that, there were issues with recruitment, with players man city what about their manager, pat guardiola, and their manager, pat guardiola, and the damage to the reputation of the Football Club.

There is a thought. He said it was a huge win for the club. 0n the mixed messages regarding the wearing of masks in enclosed spaces, like shops, in england thejustice secretary Robert Buckland said perha ps there is a need to make them mandatory. That contrasts with what michael gove said on monday, but he prefer to test your good sense. Matt hancock says officials are dealing with more than 100 local outbreaks every week and are taking targeted action. His comments come after 73 cases of covid 19 were confirmed at a Vegetable Farm in herefordshire. Around 200 workers have been totally self isolate on the premises. The local council believes the outbreak is contained now and theres a further easing of lockdown today in england you go to beauty salons, nail bars, spas and tattooists. In
scotla nd nail bars, spas and tattooists. In scotland youre allowed back at Shopping Centres as long as are covering your face, and Shopping Centres as long as are covering yourface, and pubs, bars and cafe is in wales and start serving customers outdoors. 0n the mixed messages regarding the masks like shops in england, thejustice secretary robert buckhurst said there is a need to make the monetary perhaps. I think carrying one with me and wearing one into a supermarket is a good idea and i think frankly the best thing to do was to carry on wearing it. I think if this is market is very busy then wearing it is absolutely sensible and people can be trusted to have the good sense to make the judgment call. And if one has gone into a supermarket very early in the morning and theres nobody around, well, thats one thing, but the point is, when you come into close contact with people you want to give them the confidence that you are doing everything you can to prevent inadvertent transmission of this
disease. Norman is at westminster. As the westminster government going to make it mandatory to wear coverings in shops in england, do you think . Yes, i think in time, thats the direction of travel. If you look at every other european country and more broadly around 75 countries now insist on facemasks, in public places, we have tended to follow what other countries do in terms of a lockdown, even in terms of facemasks, now mandatory on trains, not yet in shops, but i think that is the direction of travel. The reason for the confusion is because the argument hasnt really been resolved. If you take as the basic objective of the government, it wants to get people back to work, back in city centres, back to work, back in city centres, backin back to work, back in city centres, back in shops, do facemasks help or hinder that . They havent managed to thrash that out, so there are some of the cabinet to think facemasks will give people the confidence to think its ok, people taking
precautions, im safe, i can go back, in other words, precautions, im safe, i can go back, in otherwords, it precautions, im safe, i can go back, in other words, it will encourage people back, but others think that people regarded as one almighty problem and think i wont bother going to shop so i have to wear a face mask and others will think everyone is having to wear face masks, this is covid is very frightening and dangerous and i will stay out of city centres and that argument has not been fully bottomed out yet, but if you look at the way we have gone along throughout this coronavirus then, we tend to follow what other countries do. On that basis, i think in time its quite likely the government will make it mandatory to wear face masks in shops. We are heading for the end of the brexit transition period at the end of the year and the government is going to release these adverts telling us to get ready. What do we need to do . Quite a lot is the honest truth when we leave the transition period at the end of the year. Theres a lot of things we
have to do what individual consumers, if we want to go to the eu intends having up to date passport, with six months still on it, if youre going to drive, you may need an International Drivers licence, you absolutely will need to check your travel insurance because you want to be eligible for the eu health card. If you are a business, there is a lot you are going to have to do. You will have to apply for an employers number so you will have to do probably have to employ a customs agent for exporting into the eu, and that could be costly because its been estimated every customs form will cost you about £34 and in a year it estimated British Business will need around 400 million customs forms so thats an awful lot of additional costs for the one plus for business, so the government, is a free trade deal will provide new
and different opportunities to export to different parts of the world, so they are trying to say, yes, there will be additional regulations but there are opportunities for business too. Thank you very much, norman. Thank you. In the last couple of hours, the National Electoral commission in poland has announced that the incumbent, andrzej duda, has won the president ial election. In a news conference, the head of the Electoral Commission said that with results from almost all polling stations now in, mr dudas lead over his rival, rafal trzaskowski, could not now be overhauled. 0ur correspondent adam easton gave us the latest from warsaw. The head of the Electoral Commission has said 99. 97 of votes have now been counted and president duda has been re elected with a 2. 4 victory margin, which as you said, cant be overhauled with the remaining votes that still need to be counted. What does this mean for poland . It means there is a large electorate in poland that supports president dudas socially conservative platform. His support for traditional families, his antipathy
towards lg btq rights, but also Financial Support for families, not just families. Senior citizens, tax breaks for young people. Those have proved very, very popular among poles and have helped to raise some polish families out of poverty. But it also means perhaps concern in brussels and the European Union because president duda is a supporter of the government to pass controversial changes to the judiciary, which the European Union and many other institutions have said has undermined the judiciarys independence and the rule of law in poland, so there will be some concern about what the government is planning to do. It has said it will try to continue its reforms with the judiciary. So with an election win for president duda, who is an ally of the governing law and justice party, the government now has three
years before the next general election in which it can govern unhindered, without an opposition president. So thats likely to continue debate in europe, which has already started, about eu funds, with poland being the biggest recipient of eu funds under the current budget, and about those funds being tied to the rule of law, which will obviously be of concern to the government. Sorry, you are there. I keep getting this wrong. Florida has registered a Record Number of coronavirus cases in a single day for a us state with more than 15,000 people testing positive in just 24 hours. The state is thought to be particularly vulnerable to the virus because of its Elderly Population and reliance on tourism. Heres our us correspondent peter bowes. Another surge in coronavirus cases and a new epicentre for the disease. Florida is now seeing more new infections than most countries. Across the us, more than 60,000 new cases are being reported every day and about a quarter of them are in the sunshine state, where the Hospital System is under growing strain and some intensive care facilities are at full capacity. When the pandemic started, florida was slow to respond. The beaches and bars stayed open. They were eventually forced to close, but reopened early, only to be shut down again. This is a state dogged by the disease and confusion over how to deal with it. Even as the numbers rose over the weekend, disney world opened again to the public mickey mouse at a distance and mandatory face masks for visitors. But the republican governor, ron desantis, has refused to issue a state wide order for people to cover their faces. There are some anti mask activists who believe its not necessary at all. The risks are very, very low. This is a virus that has a 99. 6 recovery rate. This is a virus that is very well contained. With other states like arizona, texas and california all facing worrying increases in the number of new cases, the Trump Administration is focusing on reopening schools in the autumn, despite opposition. I think everybody would like to get our kids back to school as quickly as we can, but we also want to do it and make sure our kids will be as safe as possible. So, were not going to be rushed into this. With a growing health crisis, a divided nation and a president ial election looming, the politics of dealing with covid 19 has never been more intense. Peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. A doctor in texas says a man in his 30s who thought coronavirus was a hoax, has died after attending a covid 19 party hosted by an infected person. In a video broadcast, the chief medical officer at the Methodist Hospital in san antonio, jane appleby, said she had heard stories
of special covid gatherings attended by young people to allegedly see who gets infected first and who can survive the virus. She said the victim now regretted his bravado. We cared for a 30 year old patient at Methodist Hospital who told the nurse they had attended a covid party. This is a party held by someone diagnosed with the covid virus, and the thought is that people get together to see if the virus is real and to see if anyone gets infected. Just before the patient died, they looked at their nurse and they said, i think i made a mistake. I thought this was a hoax, but its not. This is just one example of a potentially avoidable death of a young member of our community and i cant imagine the loss of the family. The american actress Kelly Preston has died at the age of 57.
