Just as the taliban begins a major advance. So what does that mean for the western backed government in kabul. And it s manic monday at the all england club. Djokovic is through, federer is through, and on court now the british teenage sensation emma radakanu. Hello and welcome. Borisjohnson says england is on course to end all covid restrictions byjuly the 19th though a final decision won t be taken until more data is released next week. The prime minister said the pandemic will not be over onjuly 19th, in fact modelling suggests there could be as many 50,000 cases a day by the time all legally enforced restrictions are dropped. The chief medical officer said currenly cases are doubling every 9 days. But you will see from these graphs that while hospitalisations and deaths are also starting to rise.

Raducanu s future is bright, and it is bright of course, isn t it? absolutely. She placed a fantastic tennis and she s completely charming. Everybody was rooting for her and you see her in the postmaster interview, and herjoy. She sjust postmaster interview, and herjoy. She s just effervescent and her enthusiasm. My only fear is she s going to come back next year and still play the same fantastic tennis, but shall be a year older and have that expectation on her shoulders. She won t have that freedom of having nothing to lose, and that s a shame. I would have loved to see her go as far she possibly could in this particular tournament. Just simply because she had that freshness. But she s still brightening up the weekend for a lot. ,.

Hello, i m katty kay in washington, david eades is in london. Is this the moment israel bids farewell to its prime minister of the last twelve years and ushers in a new coalition including an arab party for the first time? there is, officially, one more hour to go for this potential coalition of eight opposition parties stretching across the political spectrum to strike the deal that will take benjamin netanyahu out of government after four elections in just two yea rs. Extraordinary enough that it brings together such an ideological hotch potch of parties and that it could be headed initially by the leader of the right wing yamina party, naftali bennet, who once served under netanyahu. Throw the united arab list or raam party into the mix and it really would be a coalition of unknown quantity. anyone but bibi might be their slogan. Let s cross to jerusalem now and speak to our correspondent yolande knell we do sojust we do so just as they re pointing out a line to suggest ar
From going back to work? and the future of finance, or a bursting bubble? 50,000 people gather in miami for the biggest ever bitcoin conference. We start with tax, and whether the world s corporate giants pay their fair share. Finance ministers from the g7 group of wealthy nations meet here in london later, and they re expected to back a us plan for a global minimum tax rate of 15%. The idea is to stop multinationals from shifting their profits to tax haven countries. As tax campaigner gabriel zucman explains. With a high enough minimum tax, it would become pointless for companies to move activities to low tax places. The low taxes paid in ireland and bermuda would be offset by higher taxes elsewhere, and so these countries, the tax havens themselves, it would become pointless for them to offer low taxes on the first place, so we would probably see them increase their taxes, so we could start a process of a race of the top that would replace the current race to the bottom.
