An apology is something when you have done something wrong. Do i regret . I regret being in the situation. More Sports Events in the United States are called off, in protest at the shooting of jacob blake. Some Major League Baseball players join the boycott, taking to the field in new york before walking off. Good morning. We have more rain in the forecast today and some thunderstorms, especially in the south, but the weather should turn drier if a little cooler through the weekend. Its friday, the 28th of august. Our top story. Donald trump says his democratic president ial rival, joe biden, would destroy the American Dream and give free rein to violent anarchists. In an hour long closing speech on the fourth day of the Republican National convention, mr trump promised voters he would rebuild the us economy and claimed that a Coronavirus Vaccine is on its way. Heres our north america correspondent, david willis. Please welcome, if anchor a billionaire businessman that ivanka trump described as a billionaire, an outsider. The 44th president of the United States, donald trump. And the south lawn for a rousing reception for uninvited and not for uninvited and not socially distanced audience. Donald trumps appeal coming at a time of renewed racial tension and on the day a hurricane wreaked havoc on americas gulf coast. My fellow americans, tonight with a heart full of gratitude and boundless optimism, i profoundly accept this nomination for president of the United States. Calling the forthcoming election the most important in the countrys history, donald trump called once again for the restoration or law and order in the face of protests against Police Brutality and racial injustice, some of which have grown violent. Like Richard Nixon in 1968, the message to white suburban voters is clear. Safety on their street is at risk and he is backing the police over the protesters. The Democrat Party wa nts over the protesters. The Democrat Party wants to stand with anarchists, agitators, rioters, looters and flag burners. That is up to them. But i, as your president , will not be a part of it. The Republican Party will remain the voice of the page are to carers who keep america safe and salute the the patriotic hero to keep american safe and salute the american flag. The president vowed to rebuild the economy ravaged by what he called the china virus. Perversely, given his criticism of the black lead to massive protests, he made this assessment about a voting group his party is still wanting to woo. He i have done more for the African AmericanCommunity Since abraham lincoln. There was no mention ofjacob abraham lincoln. There was no mention of jacob lake, abraham lincoln. There was no mention ofjacob lake, the black man shotin mention ofjacob lake, the black man shot in the back by a white Police Officer on sunday, nor of the tramp supporting teenage vigilante charged with murdering two people who were protesting that. Our north america correspondent david willis joins us now. David, how has mr trumps speech been received by voters . No doubt that President Trump was going to be storming out of the blocks . He categorised it as the most important election in americas history, representing it as a choice between two starkly different ideologies and viewpoints, one which would uphold the so called American Dream, the other which would destroy it. And he sought to portray his democratic rivaljoe biden as a trojan horse of the radical left. Himself as a protector of law and order. Someone who would support white suburban voters against the ravages of looters and anarchists who have hijacked some of the black lives matter protests here. The president vehemently backed the police over the protesters, and he said that many of the police here we re said that many of the police here were noble, courageous and honourable. That of course following some protest in wisconsin over the shooting in the back of a black man, jacob blake, by a white Police Officer. Thank you so much, david. The Manchester United captain, Harry Maguire, says he thought he was being kidnapped when he was arrested on the greek island of mykonos last week. The defender was found guilty of assault and attempted bribery, but has since been granted a re trial. In an exclusive bbc interview, he says he initially didnt believe the men who detained him were police, and feared for his life. Yeah, obviously, they hit me a lot on the legs. It wasnt on my mind, i was in that much of a panic. Fear, scared for my life. You feared for your life, did you . Yeah, for sure, all the way through it, until i got into the prison cell, where, like i say, ifelt relief when i got there, because the guys who were in there already told me where i was. Well hear more from Harry Maguire in a longer version of that interview in around half an hours time. A campaign to emphasise the benefits of going back to work will be launched by the government next week. It will urge employers to reassure staff that it is safe to return, by highlighting the measures theyre taking to make workplaces covid secure. Our Political Correspondent, leila nathoo joins us now from westminster. Leila, what else do we know about this campaign . Good morning. Ithink good morning. I think we can expect to hear a lot more encouragement next week from the government, particularly in the Regional Press, about going back to work, stressing the Positive Side of going into an office environment. It is worth stressing that this is aimed at offices, plenty of people have gone back to other workplaces already and who have been going in throughout. At the beginning of the month, we heard the work from home guidance changed to give employers more discretion in consultation with their employees about how to get people back in. There are big implications for the city centre are economies of people not being back in offices. And on transport reve nu es in offices. And on transport revenues as well. We have had a warning from the Business Group the cbi that the city centres are turning into a ghost towns. The government wants to stress the positive benefits of going back to work but there will be a lot of nervousness and for many offices, getting back to anything like full capacity with social distancing still required will be very difficult. Its unlikely we will see a return to pre coronavirus levels of Office Working any time soon. The authors of the largest ever study to examine children treated in hospitalfor covid 19 have said it is vanishingly rare for young people to die from the virus. The report, published in the british medicaljournal, identified which children were more likely to need Critical Care support, including newborn babies under a month old, young people from a black ethnic background, or children who are obese. Our science correspondent pallab ghosh has more. This is the Worlds Largest study of patients with covid 19. But it confirms that the overwhelming majority of those aged 19 or under dont get severe symptoms. The study looked at 70,000 patients who were admitted to hospital in the uk. Just 651 were children. Six of those died and all of them had serious Underlying Health problems. I think the most Important Message from this paper is that children make up a tiny proportion of severe covid in the uk and that death with covid in children is vanishingly rare. What i would like to say is that these findings are really reassuring. And, for myself as a parent, as are childrens doctor and also as a scientist, i find these numbers are extremely reassuring for parents who are about to send their children back to school. The research has also found that young people with black ethnicity and those medical staff classed as obese are more likely to need extra treatment, such as intensive care. The findings were seen in advance by englands chief medical officer, professor chris whitty. They were part of the evidence he looked at when he told parents on sunday that it is safe for children to return to school in september. Pallab ghosh, bbc news. Most schools in england feel ready to reopen fully next week, thats according to the National Association of headteachers. Around 4,000 head teachers, mainly from primary schools, told the union about their plans to manage the risks around coronavirus, including additional cleaning and staggered starts and break times. The education secretary, gavin williamson, said this should give parents confidence ahead of the new term. An urgent manhunt is under way, for a father who abducted his three sons from their foster home in south london, a week ago.

Lizo mzimba, bbc news. Donald trump has accepted the us republican nomination to run for a second term as president , during a speech on the final day of the Partys National convention. Lets get more reaction to this with the former republican senator jeff flake and the former republican candidate for congress randi reed. Good morning to all. Maybe we can start with you, randi. Early hours of the morning here, Donald Trumps speech a very grand surroundings, what if you think of it . |j speech a very grand surroundings, what if you think of it . I loved every minute of it. It was grand, it was over the top, and a little long winded at times, but it was wonderful. It was everything that we wa nted wonderful. It was everything that we wanted and more, and it was everything that the American People needed to hear. It touched on every single subject, it touched on issues that are affecting us today, issues that are affecting us today, issues that will affect us in the future painted a broad picture on what is to expect from for years from donald trump, and what to expect from a biden administration. People expected that because he was a more formal speech, and because he was using an auto call, that it was less trumpish, if you know what i mean, than his other speeches. Was that good or bad . It depends on who you ask. There were moments where we saw the real honest trump come out, and there were moments where he was poised and read from a teleprompter like pretty much every other person did whether it was republican or democrat. He held steadfast and he was honest. It was a brilliant speech in my opinion, much more energetic and all about the people which it should be. He was at the peoples house and he was talking for and about the people. When we introduced both of you, both republicans, randi obviously a supporter of mr trump. You, not so much, former republican senator but veering away from the party leader . Yes, im not going to vote for the president. I frankly thought the Republican Convention overall was good. It showcased a lot of republicans that i think speak to what the party should be about. I didnt think that the president s speech really fit in that mould, though. It was more of a campaign speech, a little bit, well, shorter than some of his Campaign Speeches but there wasnt any good rhetoric whatever. It was the old gripes. So not so good. So what do you need to hear from not so good. So what do you need to hearfrom president not so good. So what do you need to hear from President Trump to bring you back to the party in terms of voting for him . Actually, some real conservatism, limited government, free trade, strong American Leadership around the globe. Those kind of things and themes of conservatism. That would be a departure from really the last four years. I wouldnt expect to hear that. Thats why i think you have a numberof that. Thats why i think you have a number of republicans who are not very excited about a second term. Randl very excited about a second term. Randi, pick up on the theme of what he said about the rival for the presidency, joe biden. Some people possibly were expecting him to go further in his criticisms and he is very much presenting joe biden as a risk to the us. What did you make of his tone on his president ial rival . I couldnt agree more. I mean, you would have to be blind to not see what is happening in our country right now. The top ten most dangerous cities in the United States are democratic run and have been, and the current unrest is not happening in republican rand cities. So im pretty sure that the rest of america watched on tonight and still President Trump paint a picture of a bleak four years under president joe biden, if we can even imagine that. And i think President Trump, i wholly disagree, actually, with former senator lake. I think trump delivered everything we wanted in that speech, he mentioned joe bidens name a0 times to point out how wrong he will be b. Why is he ready to solve our world issues right now . It hasnt happened before. His track record proves that. President trump has been in office a7 months and he was able to prove tonight what he achieved in that timeframe. For anyone, i think, following politics, to have someone across the floor as we would say, to change parties in terms of loyalty, isa change parties in terms of loyalty, is a big thing. And its a significant decision, especially after 18 years of experience that you have had. What was the moment, what was it that made you turn your back, effectively, on your party and voting for the rival . Well, i didnt vote for the president in the last election. Ive hoped that voters in arizona would want somebody who was going to be an independent, that they wanted somebody he was all in. That is the polarisation that is happening there which the president has fared far. The moment for me, in the middle of the president s term, when they needed to decide when i would run again, i knewl when they needed to decide when i would run again, i knew i would have to stand on the Campaign Stage with the president like tonight. And as he demeaned my colleagues, look at my shoes, when he was talking about other americans in ways that just arent right. I just other americans in ways that just arent right. Ijust couldnt do it. I think arent right. Ijust couldnt do it. Ithinka
