You're live with Nel, with news of whales and singing nuns to come. | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
It's Newsround. First tonight, a story that's had | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
you talking all day: the price of England's World Cup kit. The FA has | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
been criticised by players and politicians because an exact adult | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
replica of the new shirt will cost ?90. A cheaper, fan's version is | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
available for ?60, with the lowest-priced kids' top costing 40. | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
Loads of you have been in touch via the website. | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
Here's what BBC Sport reporter Ben Smith told us. Look at Scotland, | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
Wales and Northern Ireland. They come in much cheaper, around ?52. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
And kids' kits come in at about ?39. Well, the FA have said that they | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
don't choose the price. They're pretty clear on that. And they've | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
also said that all this money that they make from kits goes towards | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
grass-roots football. Now, Nike have said that technology in one shirt is | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
very different to another, so everything that's going towards | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
helping England play in Brazil is in that really expensive shirt. | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
Next, an international court has told Japan to stop killing whales in | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
the ocean around Antartica. It's after Australia complained they were | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
breaking worldwide rules. Here's Ayshah. | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
For centuries, whales have been hunted for their meat and their | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
blubber. In some countries, whale meat is a delicacy, and in Japan, | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
it's sold in shops and served in restaurants. But hunting whales | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
reduced their numbers to dangerously low levels, and in 1986, hunting | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
whales for their meat was banned. But killing whales for scientific | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
research was still allowed. Conservation groups then claimed | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
that Japan was using this as an excuse to keep the supply of whale | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
meat coming. Four years ago, Australia accused Japan of illegally | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
killing whales in the Southern Ocean around Antarctica and took the | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
country to an international court to make them stop. The court found that | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
Japan had killed around 3,600 minke whales there since 2005. They | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
decided this wasn't for scientific reasons and has now ordered them to | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
stop. TRANSLATION: We are deeply disappointed and regret the result, | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
but Japan will abide by the ruling as a law-abiding nation. The | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
decision is seen as a big victory for Australia and animal rights | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
groups. I very much appreciate the desire of the Australian people | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
generally to see an end to whaling in the Southern Ocean. But the | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
court's ruling only applies to the Sourthern Ocean, meaning Japan can | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
still hunt whales elsewhere. A complete end to international | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
whaling is still some way off. Finally to the nun who has had more | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
than 40 million hits on YouTube. Sister Cristina has become an | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
internet sensation after this video of her auditioning for the Italian | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
version of The Voice went viral. That's all from us. Newsround is | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
back tomorrow. | :02:56. | :02:57. |
