The Telegraph suggests the Prime Minister plans to launch

Good morning and welcome to BBC News.

People living in areas affected by fracking could be paid

a share of the money raised from the process.

It's one of several options outlined in a Government consultation

Opponents of extracting shale gas by fracking are concerned it

could lead to increased pollution and disruption for local people.

The Government says it will provide jobs and greater energy security.

With me now is Theo Leggett our Business news reporter.

The Government has already floated the idea that the proceeds could be

shared with local communities. Some of the tax intake to be given to

local councils and community groups. What the reason may is doing is

going a bit further than that and saying that payments could be made

directly to individual households. If you live in an area where

fracking is going on you would receive a cheque. The Government has

not said how much it will be, but it could be ?10 million power

community. It could be several thousand pounds. The idea is to

deflate protests against fracking. Yes. Community is concerned about

pollution and all that kind of thing. The Government has said it

will be compensation for destruction. Environmental groups

take a rather different approach. You can imagine that people will

think it is a brave and if you are prepared to have all the pollution

and destruction in your backyard. Absolutely. Some people I have

spoken to this morning have used exactly those words. The Government

see it as compensation. Environmental groups say there is

very, very strong opposition to fracking within these communities

and they don't think that the promise of EQ thousand pounds, it's

not even a promise, the prospect will not make a lot of difference.

It is a very interesting idea. We know that huge infrastructure

projects, Heathrow's extension or any other big projects like that, it

does run into a lots of local opposition. And if you can see the

local people, here are the benefits. You could get some money and that

might change the whole planning structure in this, too. The

Government have made it clear that if this works with fracking it could

be extended to other Government priorities. That could include the

third runway at Heathrow. Large-scale projects which need

community backing and where that backing is not there at the moment.

Nickel Dreams thank you, Theo. On the line is Lorraine Allanson

from FORGE, Friends of Ryedale Gas Exploration

a pro-fracking group Lorraine, what are your thoughts?

Think it is very exciting that they have thought about contributing to

families in the area and people less well off. It will benefit them, not

just the gas company. I think it was a wise step by the reason may. The

communities will benefit. Any disruption that happens when they

come to drill is very temporary, so in the long run the Wales do their

job silently. You don't even know it is there. It will be a major boost

to rule economy is. I think it is fantastic. Nickel Dreams what you

make of the argument that we will hear that you will be braked in

order to put up with it? You have heard all the arguments. Yes, I have

heard all the arguments. They do a lot of scaremongering. A lot of it

is not true. It isn't that it can be done very safely and quietly. There

is a little bit of destruction initially, but we are not all going

to be poisoned by it. Lives will not be ruined. They use a doomsday

scenario. We do need the gas. They are shutting lots of other nuclear

plants and call plants down. Why don't we use our own gas? There is

probably many decades worth of gas there. It can work very well in

conjunction with renewables. Gas is very quick to bring online when the

wind stops blowing and the sun is up shining. It is perfect. What do your

neighbours think of you being so much in favour of it? Presumably

some people are equally against it in your area. Absolutely. I'm

looking at the practicalities of it, the benefits that it would bring to

the area and to our country. It is not just about communities, it is

about our county and country. The north of England desperately needs

something like this economically. It could bring an industry that would

be discreet. It will not ruin farming or tourism as the

anti-fracking protesters claim. A senior Conservative has said

the Remain campaign made a terrible mistake, by not discussing

immigration during the referendum. Former Business Minister Anna

Soubry, who wanted the UK to stay in the EU, said concerns raised

about the campaign's She was speaking during a BBC

documentary about the Our Political Correspondent Alex

Forsyth's report contains The vote to leave the EU was a shock

to some and prompted questions about what went wrong

in the Remain campaign. One senior Tory, who backs Remain,

has said it was a terrible mistake not to talk about

immigration and claimed concerns One of my colleagues had said

that they were very worried that it was all Project Fear

and there That was dismissed and I said,

on two occasions, I'm really worried about

the Labour vote. It was, yeah, whatever.

It wasn't taken seriously. Jeremy Corbyn's efforts

were described as lukewarm, with one Labour peer saying he damaged

the Remain campaign. Not only was he most of the time

absent from the battle, but he was holding back

the efforts of Alan Johnson They felt undermined,

at times they felt actually their Jeremy Corbyn's team

said he did make Labour's case for remaining

In and reforming the EU. I think that all leading

members of the Labour Party were out actively campaigning

and Jeremy played his part in their By doing a lot of media

appearances, a lot of meetings He played his part and we

all played our part. Whatever the reasons, vote Leave

were victorious and the UK is still And you can see the full documentary

Brexit: The Battle For Britain With me now is political

correspondent Chris Mason. There are clues as to who leaked the

story the Queen is backing Brexit. It is a great documentary. It is a

reminder if we don't need it about what a huge decision it was. There

is a little detail about this whole row about a Sun front page in the

middle of the campaign. It said that the Queen backs Brexit. As soon as

the headline appeared there was a huge amount of controversy about how

it emerged and who the sources were. The documentary suggests that it was

the former Justice Secretary, Michael Gove. That is suggested by

Nick Clegg. Michael Gove was asked about this way back during the

campaign. He said he didn't know how the Sun had got hold of its

information. He insisted he wasn't a source to the newspaper. The Sun has

run into a bit of trouble from the press regulators and that headline

appeared. Just an insight I guess, that headline like so many, at how

keenly fought it was. One of the themes of the documentary is that

Jeremy Corbyn didn't do enough. Clearly there was a huge amount of

concern within the remain campaign that they were just struggling to

get Labour's vote out for the name. During the campaign it was suggested

that lots of lifelong Labour voters did not know what Labour's view was

in the referendum campaign. Criticism of Jeremy Corbyn is pretty

frequent, but on this topic of the referendum cropped up again and

again in this documentary. The executive director of the In

campaign was once a former Labour Cabinet candidate and said that

first six months he tried to get a meeting with one of Jeremy Corbyn

prospect team and couldn't even get a meeting. He felt let down by

Jeremy Corbyn. Lord Mandelson felt that Jeremy Corbyn had sabotaged the

in campaign and is on show any zeal or passion for it. Those who defend

Jeremy Corbyn make the argument that his outlook on the European Union

was authentic. He went on a Channel 4 talk show and was asked on a scale

of one to ten how much he liked the EU anti-said seven or 7.5. That was

his legitimate view. That was the centre of this feeling. It was no

stronger than that. There were some within the remain campaign who

believe he was exaggerating his view there. He denies that. BBC Two

tomorrow night at 9pm. Day one of the Rio olympics,

and Britain already has Swimmer Adam Peaty won his 100 metre

breaststroke heat in record time. But on an emotional first day,

there was also disappointment, as some of Team GB's brightest medal

hopes failed in their bid With a look at the highs

and lows, here's Adam Wild. in Rio, as with all Olympics,

a beginning full of hope With Adam Peaty in the pool,

there is perhaps little wonder. At 21, this is the Brit's first

Olympic Games. He is not one sees

himself in gently. This was just a heat,

but already he was swimming faster than anyone

has ever done before. COMMENTATOR: This is

going to be outstanding! Peaty will have to wait

until tomorrow for his For others, the chance

for glory came sooner. Few expected 21-year-old

Max Litchfield to be Finishing fourth in the 400

but fading when it mattered most. The final chance for a British medal

on the opening day lay with Hannah Missing out by 15

hundredths of a second. It's just hard,

because it's so close. I was so close to getting out and,

yeah, it's just ten of happy and disappointment

all coming together. Cycling is one of Great Britain's

great success stories. Chris Froome Tour de

France champion, amongst those carrying British

hopes in the road race. From the Copacabana

to the cobbles and chaos, this ride

would be anything but smooth. COMMENTATOR: Oh, we've got

a rider gone off there. Some didn't even make

it to the hills. The course described

by Chris Froome as savage,

was proving a little too much - even for some

of the sports's very best. This downhill was becoming

the downfall of medal Amongst them, Britain's

Geraint Thomas. His chances left

on the Rio roadside. Rafal Majka of Poland,

But with the finish line almost in sight,

for Team GB, then words almost too hard to find

for Ashley McKenzie. Kept for triumph, the Commonwealth

judo champion was Unfortunately, in judo

you only get one chance. I think it's just two years of hard

work over four years. Putting my family through stuff,

it's just a hard sport, really. McKenzie's dream over,

others too were finding there's Turbulent waters at the Stadium

provided the most public Olympic dreams are never meant

to end quite like this. But for every failure,

there is always success. The first gold of the games came

in the ten metre air rifle. Won by the evocatively

named Virginia Thrasher. A remarkable achievement

for this American teenager. The first day providing

plenty of firsts. Rugby sevens introduced

to the Olympics for the first time. Britain's women comfortable winners

over hosts Brazil and then Japan. A medal for them is

surely a possibility. There are those for whom just

competing is a triumph. William Fox-Pitt was left

in a coma after a fall Now he leads the field

after the opening A triumph to be there,

but he will now hope for much more. So, no medals for Team GB as day one

came to a close, but there remains plenty

to suggest it won't stay like Kenya's anti-doping agency

happy. It was hard, but I was happy. Do you wonder what you could do if

you could get access to a swimming pool more in the future? Yes, we

have got to work more. I think we have to work. We have to increase

the level more. Then I could achieve a medal. How has the attention been?

Breaking news from South Africa about Oscar Pistorius. Prison

officials say Oscar Pistorius was treated for injuries at private

hospital and has returned to jail where he is serving a six-year

sentence for killing his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. A spokesman for the

correctional services department said Astori -- said that Oscar

Pistorius told officials he suffered injuries after falling out of bed.

their ballots in a referendum on a new constitution put forward

by the military government Supporters say that adopting

the new constitution will heal Critics say the proposed changes

would give the military Our South East Asia correspondent,

Jonathan Head, is at a polling I spoke to him a short time ago

and asked him what is in Well, to try and cut

it down briefly, it is In essence, it creates

a new voting system, the results of which would make it

very hard for any one party to win a majority,

so you would see probably weaker It creates an appointed senate,

at least for five years, an entirely appointed senate

with lots of military input and it gives a great deal of power

to unelected supervisory bodies, courts, other bodies as well that

have lots of military influence over their appointment,

over elected governments. In the eyes of critics,

this is a crippled democracy, a democracy in which elected

governments would have They would be forced to follow

the military's reform programme In the military's view,

in the eyes of its supporters, many people believe in what it is doing,

this is a way they can stabilise Thai politics and avoid the

protracted conflicts of the past. We do not have much of an idea

what Thai people think, partly because there has been

almost no campaigning, the military has outlawed

campaigning and jailed people who have campaigned

against the constitution. So ordinary Thais do not know much

about the constitution and are likely to vote very much

on their feelings about the military, whether they think

they have been doing a good job in their two years in power

or whether they are opposed, but opinion polls have been very

unclear before the referendum. We are very much in the dark

as to how this is going to go. The family of an Iranian nuclear

scientist, detained since 2010, Shahram Amiri had flown back

from the United States He was later accused of working

with Western intelligence agencies. This was Shahram Amiri in 2010,

returning from the US. But what he was doing in America

in the first place has remained a mystery right up

to his apparent death. His mother has told the BBC his body

has been sent to their home town with rope marks around his neck,

showing he had been hanged. At the time of his return,

Mr Amiri denied defecting to the US, I totally trusted the Islamic

Republic, and the republic was confident I was not

defecting to the US. They were seriously

following up my abduction. The mutual trust became

stronger and stronger. It was in 2009 that Mr Amiri went

on a pilgrimage to Mecca and then A year later, he appeared in social

media videos denying he had defected to the US,

and that he was hiding from the CIA. In July 2010, he finally returned

to his home country. Five years later, his family

revealed he had ended Since that publicity

surrounding his return to Iran in 2010, very little is known

about what happened next to Shahram Iranian authorities gave no clues

as to why he ended up in prison, and that gap in information has now

led to speculation on social media as to the timing

of his apparent execution. The US State Department has long

claimed Mr Amiri freely defected and provided useful information

about Iran's nuclear programme. In recent months, US media reported

how e-mails released by the State Department

from that time appeared We learn that on the one

hand his parents were pressuring him to return to Iran

because their situation was They were threatened with death

according to his mother. But publicly, the regime

was treating him as a hero. Last year, Mr Amiri's

parents publicly appealed for compassion for their son,

a plea that now seems Two of Turkey's main opposition

parties will be taking part in a rally along

with the Turkish President to protest against the

recent attempted coup. Bethany Bell has been speaking

to one man who has been on the streets of Istanbul almost

every night since This is the police station

in a district of Istanbul which is a stronghold of President

Erdogan. I have come here to meet

a graduate student who came here on the night of the coup

to protect this building. He has been taking part

in democracy rallies ever since. We come here to defend this building

because coup plotters were attacking police departments so we came

to protect the police department. Since that night, we were in trauma,

as a Turkish people, but we believe in our people,

our nation, and we We are still defending democracy

on the streets at night. We are doing manifestations,

attending meetings, to show our support,

solidarity with Turkish democracy. There have been lots of rallies

protesting against the coup since then and you have

been at lots of them. In the daytime, they cannot

imagine to do such a coup. All coups happen at night

when people are sleeping. But since the 15th of July,

people are not sleeping at nights, or even if they go to sleep,

they sleep on the streets, they keep watch on the streets,

for independence and democracy. We are not going to allow any coup

attempts any more in our country. We do not want to be

like Egypt or other countries, Thousands of people have been

arrested, tens of thousands of people have been fired

or suspended from their jobs. Are you concerned about the extent

of the purges? When a coup occurs it

is not only the army, they have their accomplices

in the judiciary, coup plotters and accomplices in every

single state institution. They infiltrated every single state

organism so we need to remove them. Everywhere you go in Istanbul

there are flags and posters These rallies are intended as a sign

of unity in a time of uncertainty. Hundreds of thousands

town for music. It is very sad that there

50 five miles per hour gusts that low levels. In the afternoon, in

comes the rain for Northern Ireland and the West of Scotland. By that

stage, the weather front in the size which is providing you with cloud

and drizzle at the moment goes away. Watch out for the wind and rain

overnight. If you're on the move, thinking about hill walking and

stuff today, I would watch out. Those weather fronts come down.

12-15. Not as close as last night. Once the weather fronts are way, the

winds begin to ease off. The direction is crucial, from the

He later won his semi final with the second

He's already the World, European and Commonwealth champion,

and it seems the Olympic gold medal is his, for the taking.

Tomorrow I will hopefully move on a bit more. I want to save myself

that. So many people congratulating me there.

In the evening's finals, it was oh so close,

James Guy and Max Litchfield, just finished outside the medals,

as did, Hannah Miley, fifteen hundredths of a second, away

from winning a bronze, in the 400 metres, individual medley.

I had nothing left. I gave that everything I had. It is a mixture of

emotions. I did better than I did in London, but it's hard because it was

just so close. I was so close to getting it. I'm happy and

disappointed all at the same time. There was once again disappointment

for the British cyclists in the Olympic men's road race,

in what proved to be a thrilling, Tour de France winner

Chris Froome and Geraint Thomas, But the course proved too

challenging for many, and several riders including

Thomas crashed. Belgium's Greg Van Averm-art,

won a sprint finish In judo, Ashley McKenzie had been

tipped by many to win a medal, After winning his opener easily,

there was heartbreak for him, He went down by a single yuko point,

to the 2015 World Champion Yeldoes Added the best that I could. We came

here to get gold, we didn't come to participate. It's my second Olympics

and now I need to wait for another four years not knowing if I have

funding or not. British judo want me to move and I probably don't want

to. Britain's women, made

an impressive start, They beat Australia,

by two goals to one, in their opening match in the early

hours of this morning. Alex Danson scoring the winner

in the third quarter. But the men didn't fare so well,

they lost their first Rugby Sevens made its debut

at an Olympics, and it was a good They won, both their matches,

first against the hosts Brazil and then beat Japan,

with ease, running out winners, Britain's, William Fox-Pitt, made

an emotional return to the Olympics, to lead the individual,

eventing competition, just months after suffering an injury,

in a cross-country race, Fox-Pitt was riding,

on Chilli Morning, He's a multi-event winner,

and was part of the British team, that took silver in the team

eventing, at London 2012, but he was taken to hospital,

with head trauma after falling It was a much better story for him,

on day one though, he posted the best score of the day,

to put him top of the individual standings, and putting Britain

in a great position, with two more riders

to perform today. It's been a promising start by

Britain's gymnasts. The men

reached tomorrow's Olympic team final, with an impressive

display in qualification. They were fifth overall,

while Max Whitlock. Nile Wilson, qualified

for the individual, One of the highlights of the first

day, was Wilson's exceptional display on the high bars,

to qualify in second place, Heather Watson and Kyle Edmund,

ensured Great Britain's tennis campaign got off to a positive

start in Rio. Watson beat China's,

Peng Shuai - in three sets - Kyle Edmund progressed

through to the second round, beating Australian

Jordan Thompson 6-4 6-2. Rowing now and London 2012 gold

medallist, Katherine Grainger, and her new racing partner,

Vicky Thornley, came through a difficult heat,

to secure a place in the semi-finals The British pair were winning

at the half way stage, but they were hauled in,

and then involved in a three-way battle for the line,

with the Lithuanian In the end they finished second,

which does secure a place, But afterwards they admitted,

there's plenty of room We are reasonably happy with how to

raise rent with everything considered, the conditions and

everything. We got out at the start well. When we look back at it we

might be disappointed. A little bit disappointed. It's the first race

for us in a long time and conditions were a little bit exciting out

there. It is where we want to be. It is a competitive race. That is a

great start, but we won't be happy with that in a few days' time.

Strong winds blowing across the open water, in Rio, made for,

very difficult racing conditions, in the first heats of the Rowing.

The conditions got so challenging, that the Serbian

team, fell into the water in the men's pair.

which gives boats finishing just outside the qualifying places,

minutes of the match against South Africa.

The first day of Olympic action features on most of the front pages.

The Telegraph has an image of British swimmer Adam Peaty,

who has broken the world record in the 100m breaststroke.

And it's lead story says the Prime Minister will launch

The Observer also has a photo of the summer.

The Sunday Times says the Rio Olympics has been rocked

by a new doping scandal involving a Kenyan official.

The Independent speculates that the Russian team

will be completely banned from the Paralympics -

a decision we are expecting this afternoon.

And it carries a picture of a Syrian refugee competing in Rio.

The Sunday Express leads on fracking, reporting that

according to a consultation due out tomorrow as much as ?10,000 could be

And the Mail on Sunday has the same story, saying the Prime Minister

is planning cash pay-outs to families, marking a departure

in approach from the previous Government.

Let's begin with fracking. The Prime Minister's stunning proposition.

Helpful map about whether your town or village will hit the pay-out.

This is an interesting story. It is very much a great headline. It is

important for the reason made to be spelling out what she is doing on

energy policy. Not least because of the nuclear drive. What is happening

is that the Government are trying to spell out that the ease some of the

residential fears from people who live near the sites, instead of the

money that we were going to give the local councils and community

projects, that could go direct to households. The reason they says it

will go directly to the households. If you live near the site you could

get up to ?10,000. In Manchester, there is a site where

you would only get ?1000. It depends on where you live. It is a postcode

lottery. It just reminds us, Prashant, that we have a new

government, we are finding out new things, new policies. Exactly,

Theresa May is theoretically going to make this policy announcement

soon. We're learning things about her that we would have learned in a

leadership election but we did not really have one for the Conservative

Party. We do not know much about her. She was at the Home Office, but

that was focused portfolio. We are learning about fracking, finding out

about things here and there. Tell us about the American experience. The

United States is a much bigger country, but is there at the same

kind of anti-fracking protests, and does paying money to

local people help believe that -- help alleviate that and shut people

up? To a certain extent, it does. The Sunday Mail refers to this. It

has a side bar story. There are environmental concerns about

fracking. But by providing money to individual households, it lessens

the opposition, certainly. It has changed the debate in the United

States, where fracking is a bigger source of energy. Let's move to the

Sunday Telegraph. It has May to lift ban on grammar schools. PM to blog

and social -- and selective education to promote social

mobility. This has been talked about in conservative circles for a long

time. The catch is, if you have selection, there will be winners and

losers. Some people will go to excellent grammar schools, and under

the old system, some people went to secondary moderns, which were not

very good. This is a popular idea among the conservative grassroots,

extending the 360 grammar schools that are remaining. We live in a

different world to when these skills were hugely popular and successful.

In counties like Kent, when you have lots of these skills, you have

families that move into the area, which inflates house prices. They

get Private tutors to make sure they pass the exams to get in. There is

an argument that to expand grammar schools would entrench that the

latest role that they had, rather than benefit the people who most

need it, bright children from disadvantaged families. Unless there

is an element that in trenches that people from less well-off

backgrounds can go to the schools, it is problematic. Theresa May has a

small majority in the House of Commons. She is massively popular

among Conservative MPs. Whether she would need a new law and whether a

majority of 12 would get that through Parliament, it is a big

question. One of the arguments in favour of grammar skills is that for

those lucky enough to go to them, they are an engine of social

mobility. They have helped people get on, get into parliament, even

become Prime Minister. Theresa May went to grammar school. She alluded

to this in her first speech. She spoke about moving people up the

social chain. It is interesting, we are learning about Theresa May, bits

and bobs about what she believes in. It is interesting how it is coming

out. One story which fascinates people around the world. A good take

on this in the Sunday Telegraph. Donald Trump's week of calamities

may finally be his downfall. I would not hold my breath on that headline.

People have counted out Donald Trump for most of 2016 but you still seems

to be the Republican nominee. What do you make of that? It is dangerous

to suggest that this might be the week that is the end of Donald

Trump. It might have been the week before that, and a week before that.

It is so hard to tell. What further calamities can befall his campaign?

We do not know but he soldiers on. These ones, in a nutshell, he did

not endorse the leading Republican in the country, the Speaker of the

House of Representatives, for a re-election. Then he did endorse

him. He made comments about the family of a Muslim service man who

was killed in action. That really got people. I think so, along with

the comments, it is the intransigence in the face of the

opposition to the comments, the refusal to back down. You were

saying this earlier, when you put it in a list of all the things that

have happened, it is remarkable. I read a list that said that Mr Trump

appeared to get in a feud with a crying baby. It is incredible.

Politicians are supposed to kiss babies, not tell their mothers to

get out. In the Sunday Telegraph, when he talks about the women that

would be in his top team, the only person he seems to mention is his

daughter. He did not seem to be aware of that Russia had taken over

the Crimean peninsula. He did say that Russia would not be invading

Ukraine any time soon. As journalists, this is the gift that

keeps on giving. Gerald Ford, years ago, when talking about Poland and

not knowing it was a member of the Warsaw Pact, that seemed to finish.

But he is the Energizer Bunny, he keeps going. There is a view in the

world, I do not care what the papers say, we have our view of these

people, and if we like them, there is nothing you can say. It is a

conspiracy, I am sure he did not mean it, and if you like Donald

Trump, they really liked him in the States. They will not be persuaded

otherwise. The Telegraph is saying he is 15 points behind Hillary

Clinton in the opinion polls, but he has massive residual support. Let's

move on to the Olympics. Adam Peaty. It is great that he beat his own

world record. He has not won a medal yet. We hope he might. Endless

fascination about this. His photo is on every front page. It is great

what he has done. From my perspective, because of all the

things happening in Rio and around the world, it is not the time to be

excited about the Olympics. The infrastructure problems, the chaos

and Brazilian politics, to say nothing of the craziness in the

world generally, I feel like this Olympics is different. Let me go on

to the two others. The Observer has, Russia faces a ban from the

Paralympics, as in a complete ban. The Sunday Times has an excellent

story. Olympics rocked by new doping scandal. That is part of it. The

Olympic brand, however much we enjoy the game, we want to see athletes

compete fairly and we wanted to be clean. -- Games. The Sunday Times

has some great journalism on this. There are suggesting that so many

people cheat we cannot take it at face value that the winners are the

best. That is a problem. One of the only ways around that is to see a

massive expansion of testing. Perhaps you will get to the position

where literally everyone who wins a medal will get tested immediately or

straight after. The Sunday Times has done great work on this in the past.

It has gone to a Kenyan official, a major. The reporters have said, will

you introduce us to people who can get around doping rules. Apparently,

for ?10,000, he said he would. He has said he was playing along to see

what was going on. On the face of it, it looks like serious

allegations and potential corruption. One of the problem is

that the newspapers face, because of the time difference, we are four

hours ahead, it is difficult for them to look current on the

Olympics, because the deadline for newspapers

tend ten o'clock on a Saturday night, and lots of the big events

will be happening at two o'clock in the morning. Ironically, lots of the

Sunday papers have big pieces on the opening ceremony, would seems like a

long time ago. It seems like ancient history. Part of the thing with all

sport, Lance Armstrong and cycling, the Fifa ethics committee, a phrase

that is difficult to say without people laughing, and we have got

this. We want sport to be clean, to be able to believe it is good. The

Sunday Times has an editorial that says, the year of the doping

Olympics. It may be tragic, but this is a wonderful sporting event.

People can get excited. You can get excited about life in general. It

does not feel like this is going to happen this year. It feels like it

will be tainted by this idea, where these guys clean? The majority of

athletes are clean, and what they have to give up in order to do this

is extraordinary. The dedication of someone like Adam Peaty, to set a

world record, is extraordinary. Equally extraordinary is the idea

that they just gave a thumbs up instead of doing cartwheels. He

probably expects to do better than this break the world record again.

His family were interviewed on the this morning. They seem incredibly

grounded. His father said that the furthest he had been was Sheffield,

60 miles. As breads, we tend to judge this through the prism of

British success. That will be key. If British people do well,

fantastic. If they do less well, we will be less interested. Fingers

crossed for Adam Peaty. Thanks very much. That is it for this segment.

Thanks to Vincent Moss and Prashant Rao.

Just a reminder, we take a look at tomorrow's front pages

every evening at 10:30 and 11:30, here on BBC News.

Coming up on BBC One after this programme is Sunday Morning Live.

With the details, we say good morning to Naga Munchetty.

Good morning. On Sunday Morning Live, more police with guns on the

streets. Does that make us feel safer? We're asking if women lacked

ambition. One boss had to step down when he suggested that female staff

were happy just doing good work. And singer Gregory Porter tells us why

he is happy to be known as a mummy's boy. Join us at ten o'clock. Now the

weather. Thank you. Good morning. Difficult

to know what to put in the sphere this morning. I have gone for wet

and windy because it is already windy across the north of the

British Isles. When this cloud rocks up into western Scotland and

Northern Ireland later, you will certainly get it wet as well. Notice

the ice bars on the chart. That is indicating how windy things are. We

have seen DOS of 50 miles Pereyra, and that is at lower levels. If

you're thinking about high ground in Scotland and Northern Ireland, you

had better be very experienced and up to date with the weather

forecast. Tricky conditions. This is the scale of the problem we will be

facing later this afternoon. Brightness to be had across the East

of Scotland. Watch out for the gas if you're on the road. Then the rain

for Scotland and Northern Ireland. The rain is on the move for Northern

Ireland. The far West will brighten up before the end of the day. Adults

start across southern counties, but it will improve markedly. Apart from

the Channel Islands, where you get the sunshine, 24, but will you do

not, something like 15 or 16. Not cold, but not what you would expect

for the first week in August. That is what you would expect. They

should get a Phil Day's play at Edgbaston for the conclusion of the

test match. This evening and overnight, we will bring a band of

weather across the British Isles. Another will sweep in across

northern areas. The winds will still be a feature. Monday will be

brighter for the greater part of the British Isles. The winds are still a

feature across many northern parts, it is a north-westerly. Fresher than

the last couple of days. Speckling of showers in the evening, but you

get the sense that it is dry weather, apart from Northern Isles.

As the skies clear, it will be a cold started Tuesday. These are the

temperatures. We could get into single figures. That is how we start

next week, with the wind in the Northwest. Rain in the north, much

drier in the south. Thank you very much.

Coming up on the BBC News Channel after ten, we'll be speaking

to our South Africa correspondent, to get the latest on Oscar
