:00:20. > :00:23.The anti-doping system in Russia is broken,

:00:24. > :00:30.With Russia's Olympians competing in Rio at the moment,

:00:31. > :00:32.we'll ask where the Paralympics decision

:00:46. > :01:13.The entire Russian Paralympic team has been suspended from competing

:01:14. > :01:16.in Rio next month, in the wake of a report that found evidence

:01:17. > :01:19.The International Paralympic Committee said a "doping culture"

:01:20. > :01:22.was "polluting Russian sport", but it had to act

:01:23. > :01:25.in the best interests of the Paralympic movement.

:01:26. > :01:35.Our Sports Editor, Dan Roan reports from Rio.

:01:36. > :01:41.If Russia thought their first gold of these games meant business as

:01:42. > :01:46.usual, they were wrong. The country today was kicked out of next month's

:01:47. > :01:52.Rio Paralympics in disgrace for cheating. The IPC governing board

:01:53. > :01:53.has resolved to suspend the Russian Paralympic committee

:01:54. > :02:04.This means the Russian Paralympic committee loses all rights and

:02:05. > :02:08.privileges of IPC membership. This includes not being able to enter

:02:09. > :02:12.para athletes into competitions sanctioned by the IPC and being

:02:13. > :02:16.unable to participate in the IPC activities. Last month, a damning

:02:17. > :02:20.report revealed systemic state-sponsored cheating in Russia

:02:21. > :02:27.across many Olympic sports, but it also referred to a host of covered

:02:28. > :02:31.up positive drugs test in Paralympic disciplines. Russia hosted

:02:32. > :02:33.disability sport's showpiece event at the Sochi Winter games two years

:02:34. > :02:38.ago, winning three times as many medals as any other nation, but that

:02:39. > :02:42.success has now been discredited. The anti-doping system in Russia is

:02:43. > :02:47.broken, corrupted and entirely compromised. Everything we have

:02:48. > :02:55.observed goes against the very spirit of sport and everything the

:02:56. > :03:00.Paralympic movement stands for. The IBC's hard-line stance stands in

:03:01. > :03:02.stark contrast to the International Olympic Committee, which

:03:03. > :03:06.controversially resisted demands to ban the entire Russian team from

:03:07. > :03:10.Rio. President Thomas Bach called it a nuclear option. The Russian

:03:11. > :03:16.national anthem has already been heard at these Olympics. But the man

:03:17. > :03:25.who represents Paralympic athletes says the IPC had no choice. The

:03:26. > :03:30.facts we have actually horrify me. Athletes appear to be pawns in a

:03:31. > :03:34.broken, corrupt system designed to show global prowess. Because of the

:03:35. > :03:38.Russian government's desire to seek an unfair competitive advantage,

:03:39. > :03:46.their athletes will now miss out on the opportunity to compete at the

:03:47. > :03:50.biggest stage of all. This is arguably the biggest decision the

:03:51. > :03:55.IPC has ever reached, announcing it just a few minutes ago in the

:03:56. > :03:58.building behind me. It's a huge embarrassment and humiliation for

:03:59. > :04:03.Russia, which has been a real powerhouse nation in Paralympic

:04:04. > :04:07.sport. It won 30 gold medals, 80 overall at the Sochi Winter

:04:08. > :04:10.Paralympics which they hosted. It's important to remember that the

:04:11. > :04:15.Paralympic movement is a growing force in world sport. One only have

:04:16. > :04:18.to see the huge crowds at the London summer Paralympics four years ago to

:04:19. > :04:22.realise that. No surprise that according to the Russian state news

:04:23. > :04:25.agency, the Russian government is appealing against this decision to

:04:26. > :04:30.the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The other significance of it is that

:04:31. > :04:34.for many critics, it will expose and shame the IOC's decision not to

:04:35. > :04:41.issue a blanket ban to Russia despite similar allegations in

:04:42. > :04:42.Olympic sport. It opens up a new division within the Olympic

:04:43. > :04:47.movement. Dan Roan, thank you. And we will

:04:48. > :04:51.have to be's Olympic sporting action later in the programme. -- to be's

:04:52. > :04:53.Olympic sporting action. People living in areas affected

:04:54. > :04:56.by any future extraction of shale gas could be paid thousands

:04:57. > :04:58.of pounds from the proceeds That's one of the options

:04:59. > :05:02.in a consultation due Anti-fracking campaigners

:05:03. > :05:13.have reacted angrily, Shame on you! The concept of

:05:14. > :05:18.fracking has been plagued by controversy. We say no! There were

:05:19. > :05:25.angry scenes in North Yorkshire when the council gave the go-ahead May.

:05:26. > :05:29.These hills are the battle ground between those who say shale gas deep

:05:30. > :05:35.below could help meet the UK's energy needs and those who fear it

:05:36. > :05:42.will destroy the environment. Now residents in affected towns have

:05:43. > :05:44.been told they could share in the proceeds from fracking. The Prime

:05:45. > :05:50.Minister is consulting on plans to give up to 10% of tax revenues

:05:51. > :05:55.directly to households instead of councils or local trusts. I think is

:05:56. > :06:00.divisive, because some people would love a few thousand pounds in their

:06:01. > :06:06.bank account, and then other people, because they are against the

:06:07. > :06:10.fracking, they will attack them. It looks attractive, but it's just

:06:11. > :06:16.local blackmail. I use central heating, I drive a car. You have got

:06:17. > :06:20.to be careful, and I think you do have to see it as a local planning

:06:21. > :06:25.issue. Fracking involves injecting water, sand and chemicals at high

:06:26. > :06:30.pressure into shale rocks deep underground, releasing gas that can

:06:31. > :06:33.be pumped to the surface. Supporters say it's a safe energy resource

:06:34. > :06:38.which will boost local economies and households should benefit. I think

:06:39. > :06:41.it's a really good intervention that Theresa May has done so that the

:06:42. > :06:46.local community can benefit directly, rather than just using a

:06:47. > :06:49.community group, because that will involve committees and trying to

:06:50. > :06:53.agree on what to spend the money on. But those opposed to the government

:06:54. > :06:58.should focus on renewable energy, not trying to win people ran to

:06:59. > :07:02.fracking. What Theresa May is trying to do is a cheap bribe, trying to

:07:03. > :07:05.bribe communities that have said time and again they don't want

:07:06. > :07:09.fracking. This is exactly the kind of thing that people have been

:07:10. > :07:13.complaining about, that they are not listened to. Theresa May said

:07:14. > :07:17.today's announcement is putting into practice what she promised when she

:07:18. > :07:20.stood here and took office, making economic decisions which benefits

:07:21. > :07:27.people personally, not just the powerful. This isn't signed off.

:07:28. > :07:29.There are questions about how it would work and the amounts involved.

:07:30. > :07:32.But the Prime Minister has already said something similar could be

:07:33. > :07:37.considered for other schemes. Some activists say this will just

:07:38. > :07:40.strengthen their resolve to fight. Others hope this could encourage

:07:41. > :07:43.people to lay down their placards and embrace a new energy supply.

:07:44. > :07:45.Alex Forsyth, BBC News. Belgian prosecutors have identified

:07:46. > :07:48.the man who attacked a female police officer with a machete as

:07:49. > :07:50.a 33-year-old Algerian who's lived So-called Islamic State has claimed

:07:51. > :07:55.links to the attack, but Belgian security services say the man

:07:56. > :07:57.was known to them previously for criminal rather

:07:58. > :08:03.than terrorist activities. The South African athlete

:08:18. > :08:22.Mason's report contains It was the moment that changed

:08:23. > :08:34.politics, and changed the country. and big political parties had

:08:35. > :08:41.very definitely lost, One senior Tory who backed Remain

:08:42. > :08:49.said it was a terrible mistake not One of my colleagues had said

:08:50. > :08:54.that they were very worried that it was all Project Fear

:08:55. > :08:57.and there should be more positivity and that was dismissed,

:08:58. > :09:00.and I said on two occasions, "I'm really worried

:09:01. > :09:02.about the Labour vote," That worry that lots of Labour

:09:03. > :09:08.supporters would vote Out are now blaming this man,

:09:09. > :09:14.Jeremy Corbyn. Not only was he, for most

:09:15. > :09:19.of the time, absent from the battle, but he was holding back the efforts

:09:20. > :09:22.of Alan Johnson At times they felt actually,

:09:23. > :09:32.their efforts were being sabotaged. But Jeremy Corbyn's team

:09:33. > :09:36.insist he did do his bit. I think that all leading members

:09:37. > :09:40.of the Labour Party were out actively campaigning,

:09:41. > :09:42.and Jeremy played his part in that collective effort by doing a lot

:09:43. > :09:45.of media appearances, by doing a lot of meetings up

:09:46. > :09:48.and down the country. He played his part,

:09:49. > :09:51.and we all played our part. For the winners, justification that

:09:52. > :09:57.a once lonely argument had been Ultimately, this referendum was won

:09:58. > :10:04.by people saying, "We have

:10:05. > :10:07.got to get back control of our borders and a saner,

:10:08. > :10:11.better immigration And, say some, it proved too how out

:10:12. > :10:20.of touch this place can be. The sniffy and patronising

:10:21. > :10:31.way in which the liberal middle class elite

:10:32. > :10:34.in London has looked at the votes these people are too stupid,

:10:35. > :10:39.too northern, too working class, too poor, too old, and didn't know

:10:40. > :10:42.what they were voting for, that is Yes, it was a referendum

:10:43. > :10:45.that exposed deep divisions within society,

:10:46. > :10:47.and has reshaped politics for ever. And you can see the full

:10:48. > :10:49.documentary, Brexit: The Battle for Britain,

:10:50. > :10:51.tomorrow night Day two of the Olympics -

:10:52. > :11:01.and later on, all eyes will be on the swimming

:11:02. > :11:04.as Britain's Adam Peaty goes for gold in the 100

:11:05. > :11:06.metres breaststroke. So far, though, it's

:11:07. > :11:08.been a frustrating day for the organisers

:11:09. > :11:10.after the weather forced Our sports correspondent

:11:11. > :11:22.Andy Swiss reports. A beautiful day at the rowing lake,

:11:23. > :11:28.but appearances can be deceptive. High winds on the water, and after

:11:29. > :11:33.one boat capsized yesterday, organisers were taking no chances.

:11:34. > :11:37.Today's heats were cancelled. Britain's crews will have to play

:11:38. > :11:42.the waiting game. Elsewhere, it was time for the man in the mask. James

:11:43. > :11:45.Davies hoping to win Britain passed my first fencing medal for more than

:11:46. > :11:51.50 years, and he made an impressive start with an early win. But the

:11:52. > :11:58.world number five's hopes ended in agonising fashion, pipped 15-13 in

:11:59. > :12:03.the next round by Russia's Safin. It was rather better in the sevens

:12:04. > :12:06.rugby, though, as two tries from captain Emily Scarratt helped

:12:07. > :12:13.Britain's women through to the quarterfinals with a comprehensive

:12:14. > :12:18.22-0 win over Canada. But the main focus later will be here in the

:12:19. > :12:22.pool. Not since Adrian Moorhouse in 1988 has a British man won and

:12:23. > :12:29.Olympic swimming title, but Adam Peaty could be about to change that.

:12:30. > :12:34.Yesterday, Peaty recorded the two fastest times ever in the 100 metres

:12:35. > :12:40.breaststroke, a world record in the heats and this in the semifinals.

:12:41. > :12:44.This is perfect from Peaty! The 21-year-old from Derby goes for gold

:12:45. > :12:47.just before 3am, British time. It could be a night to remember. Andy

:12:48. > :12:50.Swiss, BBC News, Rio. Today, it's been the turn

:12:51. > :12:52.of the women cyclists Aiming for Team GB's first Rio medal

:12:53. > :12:56.is Lizzie Armitstead. Natalie Pirks has been watching

:12:57. > :13:05.and joins me from Rio. How is she doing? Well, the race is

:13:06. > :13:10.around two hours in and until two weeks ago, it was the perfect

:13:11. > :13:13.build-up for Lizzie Armitstead. She is the reigning world champion in

:13:14. > :13:17.the road race. She has had a great season and was hoping to go one

:13:18. > :13:21.better than the silver she won in London, but then came the drama of

:13:22. > :13:24.her three missed drugs tests. She was suspended, but appealed to the

:13:25. > :13:27.Court of Arbitration for Sport, saying the first test should be

:13:28. > :13:31.struck from her record because the doping officer hadn't done enough to

:13:32. > :13:36.locate her. They agreed with her and she was free to compete here, but at

:13:37. > :13:40.what cost to her reputation? Fellow -- fellow Olympians said she should

:13:41. > :13:45.not have been allowed here. She gave a very emotional interview to the

:13:46. > :13:47.BBC, saying she knew she would be forever associated with the spectre

:13:48. > :13:51.of doping, so it's hard to believe that she is in the right place

:13:52. > :13:55.mentally to win gold here. Even winning any kind of middle age on a

:13:56. > :13:58.course that isn't suited to her talent would be quite some

:13:59. > :14:03.achievement. -- winning any kind of metal. She has already had to change

:14:04. > :14:06.bikes because of a punch-up. Fellow team-mate Emma Pooley has made a

:14:07. > :14:10.break for it, but Lizzie looks like she's sticking with the peloton for

:14:11. > :14:12.the time being. And the trickiest climb, the Vista Chinesa, is still

:14:13. > :14:15.to come. With all the sport, here's

:14:16. > :14:17.Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes England's cricketers have

:14:18. > :14:28.comfortably beaten Pakistan in the third test at Edgbaston to go

:14:29. > :14:38.2-1 up in the best of 4 series. Being England captain is about

:14:39. > :14:42.making tough decisions. Alastair Cook had decided to wait until 11.30

:14:43. > :14:47.this morning to try and bowl Pakistan out. Ten wickets required.

:14:48. > :14:49.At least Mohammad Hafeez was feeling charitable, a gift to Stuart Broad

:14:50. > :14:55.and to England. His fellow Pakistanis stood firm. Azhar Ali

:14:56. > :15:03.guided them to lunch and beyond. To most eyes, this was a draw. Then

:15:04. > :15:07.Moeen produced the sudden turn. 2.10, eight to go. Everything now

:15:08. > :15:11.have to happen at a hurry. That is where Jimmy Anderson is useful.

:15:12. > :15:15.Younis Khan fell before. Steven Finn must have wondered where his next

:15:16. > :15:22.wicket was coming from. Ms Bow was the answer. Relief, release,

:15:23. > :15:28.Pakistan in retreat. Where had this come from? Sammy could only wonder.

:15:29. > :15:31.Finn got him too. The end came before 5.30 must help caught and

:15:32. > :15:35.bowled Moeen. They matched England could have lost and probably should

:15:36. > :15:36.have drawn, they have somehow managed to win. Patrick Gearey, BBC

:15:37. > :15:40.News. Manchester United have won this

:15:41. > :15:42.year's Community Shield. Jose Mourinho's new look side beat

:15:43. > :15:44.the Premier League Champions Leicester City 2-1 at Wembley,

:15:45. > :15:47.summer signing Zlatan Ibrahimevic Our Correspondent

:15:48. > :15:57.Joe Wilson reports. Run through the starting 11 to find

:15:58. > :16:02.the man with 11 letters. Wembley is big enough for those latter hand

:16:03. > :16:06.Ibrahimovic, just about. 35 this year, he's the new man to lead

:16:07. > :16:09.Manchester United's attack, but there is space for a player who has

:16:10. > :16:12.been at the club since boyhood, Jesse Lingard, making Leicester's

:16:13. > :16:18.defenders look a bit like pensioners. Mourinho picked the

:16:19. > :16:23.team, in case you were wondering. 1-0 at half-time. There is always

:16:24. > :16:27.the good old match day programme to read. In it, Jose Mourinho writes

:16:28. > :16:31.about a new chapter. He's still trying to sort out the catalyst. We

:16:32. > :16:35.learn today that Paul Pogba just needs to pass a medical and he's

:16:36. > :16:40.joining the club. United prepared to spend ?100 million on him. The

:16:41. > :16:45.programme just costs a fiver. Leicester's summer success was to

:16:46. > :16:50.hold onto Jamie Vardy, played in beautifully by United's Fellaini,

:16:51. > :16:56.thank you. 1-1, the game was drifting. Where was Ibrahimovic?

:16:57. > :17:02.There. What influence did he have on the game? Check the score sheet. I

:17:03. > :17:06.just won another trophy. And Celtic began their Scottish

:17:07. > :17:10.Premiership title defence with a 2-1 victory over Hearts. The match was

:17:11. > :17:13.level at 1-1 until the 81st minute, when Scott Sinclair, who only

:17:14. > :17:15.officially signed for Celtic last night, came off the bench to score

:17:16. > :17:18.the winner at Tynecastle. There's more throughout the evening
