With team gb boarding a train at gare du nord station. 230 athletes have boarded the eurostar back to england including medal winners tom daley and matt hudson smith. But as team gb make their way home, the boa chief executive, andy anson, has reflected on their success while acknowledging some frustration at a lack of gold medals in comparison to previous games. Winning a medal on every day of the games is unique that s never happened before so it feels like it s just been, you know, success after success after success. I agree it would have been nicer to get some more gold medals. You look at the success of the australian team they ve managed to convert a much higher number of their medals to gold medals this time. And we ve got to fight back, and i think we ve all got to have that mindset. So celebrate the brilliant success of the 65 medals, but at the same time see how we improve things going forward. We have to assess is that something that needs we have to assess is that somethin

Was fuelled in part by mis information, spread on social media about the alleged killer. Our disinformation correspondent, marianna spring, has tracked down some of the people behind one of the first posts publishing false information, and asked them why they did it. All this week, we ve been telling you a lot about how misinformation, false claims on social media, have been accused of fuelling riots in the uk. I ve been investigating where it s coming from and why it s being shared. One of the first pages to share false information about the southport tragedy was this unregulated news site called channel3 now. They wrote a story about the stabbings in southport and quickly posted it on social media. Some of the details were correct, but the name of the 17 year old charged was false and the article wrongly suggested that the alleged attacker was here seeking asylum.

I find that racial or religious aggravation was the predominant motivation for the offence and you were associated with a group which was promoting hostility based upon colour, race, religion. In those circumstances, i will increase the starting point that i consider to be appropriate. As i have said, your positi
