offered to host the game if no other host can be found, but it would have to be scaled back. can you talk us through it. if it would have to be scaled back. can you talk us through it.— you talk us through it. if you are a new who would _ you talk us through it. if you are a new who would host _ you talk us through it. if you are a - new who would host the commonwealth game, a major event in it few years' time, we would have to tell, but we simply don't know, the reason that glasgow has made the offer to potentially be the fallback option if no other host was found, the commonwealth games federation is confident they can do that with an announcement next month, glasgow hosted in 2014. there accommodations and structures in place, but it would be a very different looking commonwealth games to what we were this accustomed to. birmingham in 2022, 20 sports were there, there should be ten — 13 if glasgow steps and at this late hour, and the money is very important so glasgow, having spent money on the commonwealth games in 2014. they will get £100 million from the commonwealth games federation, which is guaranteed to any host taking responsibility for 2026, but they will not ask for much more. so there is a real crucial moment in what is a story event, certainly for those 50 plus nations of the commonwealth, but one of them has not yet stepped into the void created initially by victoria in australia who decided they don't want to do any more. that australia who decided they don't want to do any more.— want to do any more. that was because of— want to do any more. that was

it can survive. does it have a place of in the modern sporting landscape? k much of the empire games, and it involves lots of former british colonies that now i've gone on to have sporting traditions of their own. the reason i think quite a lot of countries are not particularly interested in doing so is a financial one. it cost lots of money and cost birmingham some £778 million to put on 2022. they claim more than1 billion came back in terms of the uk economy, particularly in the region where birmingham is, the west midlands, but malaysia and singapore have said no after victoria, and the last six occasions of the games five of those have been by countries in the uk or austria. so there is a narrowing list of countries who are able to and interested in hosting these games. it's a huge multisport event and brings lots of athletes who care about winning gold medals at the commonwealth games, particularly british athletes who get to compete in it an arena and events they don't normally get to do, so there are personal stories and significant moments of history that the commonwealth games can call upon, but whether it is a financial and logistical necessity now for the

been hearing from two of the most senior managers in charge. adam crozier was chief executive of royal mail, which at that time owned the post office. he said he wasn't aware of what he called the "tragic situation" facing sub—postmasters. earlier, the former managing director of the post office, alan cook, said he didn't realise the company itself had been bringing prosecutions against sub—postmasters — hundreds of which were wrongly accused of theft and fraud. here's zoe conway. adam crozier is one of the uk's significant business figures, he was the chief executive of advertising agency saatchi & saatchi before becoming the boss of the faa, from there to royal mail, then itv, and now chairman of bt, but it is his time at royal mail that is under scrutiny today. on his watch, hundreds of sub—postmasters were prosecuted, but he says he was not aware of what was happening. i think it is a matter of real regret that all of those checks and balances, the governing systems in both companies, fail. horizon was rolled out in 1999, the first prosecution came shortly after. adam crozier then joined royal mail in 2003 and at this time it owned the post office. in 2009, problems with horizon first appeared in the press. by now, hundreds of sub—postmasters had been prosecuted. alan cook had been giving evidence. he was the post office managing director from 2006—2010. when alan cook was managing director of the post office, sub—postmasters went to prison. yet he has just told the inquiry that he did not know that the company he ran was directly responsible for prosecuting them. do you think you should have known that the post office was making those decisions? i think i should, yes. janet skinner was one of the sub—postmasters wrongly imprisoned when alan cook was the boss. today, he apologised to her. this will be with you for the rest of your life, and with me for the rest of my life. after the hearing, they met, and this is what she told him. people have suffered, they have lost their lives, people have lost families, reputations, and for what reason? to protect a computer system that didn't work and to protect a brand that is just not fit for purpose any more. today it was revealed nobody at the top of the company took responsibility for the prosecutions. today it was revealed nobody at the top of the company took responsibility for the prosecutions. adam crozier said he was not proud of this. the minimum age limit for children using whatsapp has been lowered from 16 to 13. the technology company — meta — which owns it says it's bringing the uk in line with the us and australia. but campaigners have called it a "highly irresponsible" approach to child safety. it comes as a bbc investigation has found that children as young as ten are being added to whatsapp groups containing inappropriate material. here's martin lindsay. i noticed a real personality change in my 12—year—old. after some coaxing, she told me she'd been added to a whatsapp group. i immediately removed my child from the group and deleted it. this is one mum's story and a real fearfor many parents. i was shocked to see inappropriate sexual images, racism and swearing among the messages. we've got someone else to voice her words so we don't identify her or her child. her daughter, who's 12, was added to this whatsapp group, and we've seen some of the content, which included sexual images, pictures of mutilated bodies and racist comments. screenshots we've seen showed it had more than 900 members, and it also meant children's phone numbers were in the hands of strangers. she also told me a boy had called her as a result of getting her number from the group and had invited his cousin to talk to her, too. thankfully, she was savvy enough to end the call and replied to their text messages saying she was not prepared to give them her surname or tell them where she went to school. it's an incredibly disturbing case to have heard about, and the fact that primary school—age children have been added to this group and seeing such dangerous content that they don't want to see and they don't want to be exposed to is incredibly upsetting. it comes as an urgent message was sent to parents from tyneside schools which warned of another whatsapp group encouraging self—harm. it said 500 children had been added and it was targeting year 6 pupils, which is ten or 11—year—olds. the question of who set up the group and for what purpose is now the subject of a police investigation. meta, which owns whatsapp, says, "we give all users options to control who can add them to groups, and the first time you receive a message from an unknown number, you can block or report it." i felt sick to my stomach. she's only 12, and now i'm worried about her using her phone. i find it absolutely terrifying. martin lindsay, bbc news, tyneside. let's speak taylor lorenz — she is the host of power user podcast and a tech columnist at the washington post.

age from 16 to 13 here in the uk. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news. to norway — where the health minister has today stepped down over a plagiarism scandal. ingvild kjerkol announced her resignation, after an investigation concluded that she'd plagiarised part of her masters thesis. she's the second minister in norway's government to stand down this year over similar allegations. for her part ingvild kjerkol said it hurt not to be believed , but was grateful for her time in the role. translation or about the pay minister has let the cat of the back, i must have trust. i resigned from this fantastic job back, i must have trust. i resigned from this fantasticjob and i would do everything i can so that the next they party minister of health would succeed and

similarities in her text. they did not find that to be cheating back then, but after the case resurfaced again after another minister was caught for plagiarising, they studied the case again and found that nearly half of her thesis has been plagiarised. they defined it as cheating. thea; they defined it as cheating. they found it was _ they defined it as cheating. they found it was intentional, no

found many similarities that wasn't quoted or cited properly, and that made the news the same week, and a minister of higher education resigned promptly, making the media check other politicians

from an exploding star 2.4 billion light years away. the light earned the nickname of boat — brightest of all time. but, in finding its cause, researchers ran up against two other questions — why did such a small star produced such a bright light? and does it throw into doubt the theory as to how heavy elements, such as gold, are produced? let's speak to paul woods who is chief editor of nature astronomy — the online journal where this research was published. it's fascinating and causes art sets of questions and head scratching. so explain to us why it was so bright in the first place. we explain to us why it was so bright in the first place.— in the first place. we see these bri . ht in the first place. we see these bright flashes _ in the first place. we see these bright flashes of _ in the first place. we see these bright flashes of gamma - in the first place. we see these bright flashes of gamma ray . in the first place. we see these - bright flashes of gamma ray around the universe but in this particular one with the practice that has ever been seen. it happened a little over two years ago, and we don't really know what causes them, and that is why the research is published today is so interesting, because it provides an answer to what causes some of these gamma ray bursts. it was 100 times brighter than anything ever recorded before. so these gamma ray bursts, are supposed to be associated with exploding supernovas but you were not sure first of all, people were not sure, whether it was an exploding star or not? the leadin: an exploding star or not? the leading theory _ an exploding star or not? the leading theory is _ an exploding star or not? tue: leading theory is that an exploding star or not? tte: leading theory is that these extremely bright, rate bursts come from what is called a collapse are, the rotating core of an extremely massive star that collapses in on itself to form a black hole, and these were thought to be the cause of these bright and energetic burst, but when the researchers looked with the james webb telescope, they did not find what they were expecting to see. they did not see the evidence for the collapse ours but a normal supernova, so they formed answer to it an important question in astronomy, but they generated so many other follow—on questions from that research. it many other follow-on questions from that research.— that research. it makes me wonder whether i that research. it makes me wonder whether i can _ that research. it makes me wonder whether i can trust _ that research. it makes me wonder whether i can trust anything - that research. it makes me wonder whether i can trust anything you i that research. it makes me wonder| whether i can trust anything you say if he comes or no, because in terms of the other side of things about what i mentioned about gold and maybe other heavy elements, explain where that fits into all of this? the telltale sign of these collapse ours are huge amount of these heavy elements like gold and platinum and uranium and things like that, so the research is expected to see the special mentos when you look at the origins of these gamma ray bursts, but they do not see anything like that, they saw a lighter mentos like nichols —— nickel, the mentos associated with the supernova anyway, so they do not see what they were expected to see, which means that we are not posed with another question, which is, when we look around us in the galaxy, we see lots of precious heavy metals, but we don't know know where they come from because the leading idea behind the generation of these elements has just been wiped off the slate. yes. just been wiped off the slate. yes, ou have just been wiped off the slate. yes, you have to _ just been wiped off

well, thank you very much, good to talk to you, paul woods, you very much, good to talk to you, paulwoods, chief you very much, good to talk to you, paul woods, chief editor of nature astronomy. stay with us on the context. hello. temperatures for some of us today got up into the high teens, the low 20s celsius — particularly where we saw some sunshine — but don't expect those warm conditions to last. it's actually going to turn cooler this weekend. 0ften windy, the wettest weather towards the north and the west of the uk. today, we've had this feed of south or south—westerly winds bringing this relatively warm air, but notice some colder air lurking out in the atlantic. that will head our way as westerly winds start to kick in through the weekend. those westerly winds moving in behind various different frontal systems. here comes one. not much more than just a little bit of showery rain, certainly more cloud with that. most places, i think, will be largely dry through the night. some further hefty showers into north—west scotland, where it will be windy. it's going to be mild to take us into saturday morning. so, for saturday, a couple of different weather fronts to pass across the uk. this first one here bringing some mostly fairly light, showery rain. this next weather front here bringing some more intense downpours across northern ireland and the north—west of scotland. some heavy, thundery downpours are possible. between the rain bands, we will see some spells of sunshine and what will be quite a windy day, particularly across northern areas, gusts of 40 mph or more, but a pretty windy day wherever you are. temperatures in the south—east corner getting up to 20 degrees celsius. further north and west, it will be turning cooler as the day wears on, and actually saturday night could be quite cold. we could see a touch of frost in northern areas. these weather fronts moving out of the way, a window of drier weather, but we're into those westerly winds and that chillier air mass by this stage. sunday is going to be a sunshine and showers day. it could be a frosty start for some northern areas, then some spells of sunshine. showers getting going, particularly across northern ireland, scotland, northern england, some down into wales. some of the showers wintry over the highest ground in the north. not as many showers down towards the south—east corner, 9—15 degrees. that is about where we should be temperature—wise for this time of year. now, monday, we'll see this area of low pressure passing across the uk. we'll see showers or longer spells of rain, some pretty blustery winds as well. the showers becoming fewer and further between as we head deeper into next week. temperature—wise, well, around the average for the time of year. hello, i'm lucy grey. you're watching the context on bbc news. we are devoted to the defence of israel. we will support israel, we will help defend israel, and iran will not succeed. the estimate actually comes from two us officials _ the estimate actually comes from two us officials — that iran is preparing a strike against israel that would use more than 100 drones, dozens— that would use more than 100 drones, dozens of— that would use more than 100 drones, dozens of cruise missiles, and perhaps— dozens of cruise missiles, and perhaps ballistic missiles as well. those people i spoke to, most people shrugged . their shoulders and say, "look, we live with thisl "threat all the time." there was a sort of. resignation about it. there wasn't any sense _ of heightened concern or imminent threat in how they felt. welcome to the programme, let's get the latest headlines now. belgium is formally investigating russian attempts to influence the outcome of the european elections. prime minister alexander de croo said moscow's aim was to bring more pro—russian candidates into the european parliament.
