Hello this is Breakfast, with Roger Johnson and Rachel

:00:32.:00:33.

It was billed as one of the greatest sporting shows on earth

:00:34.:00:37.

Good morning it's Sunday 27th August.

:00:38.:00:45.

Also ahead, a big shift on Brexit by Labour -

:00:46.:00:48.

the party says it wants the Britain to remain in the single market

:00:49.:00:51.

Texas braces itself for further "catastrophic" flooding

:00:52.:00:54.

as Tropical Storm Harvey sweeps across the state.

:00:55.:00:56.

Strong winds are hampering rescue efforts and thousands

:00:57.:00:58.

In sport - heartbreak for England in the women's rugby

:00:59.:01:02.

There are tears on the pitch after were beaten by New Zealand

:01:03.:01:06.

Good morning. Not a blue sky day for everyone by any means, but most

:01:07.:01:26.

places will be dry. Details on that and the forecast for tomorrow,

:01:27.:01:28.

coming up. Within the past ten minutes, Floyd

:01:29.:01:37.

Mayweather has beaten Conner McGregor after ten rounds in one of

:01:38.:01:41.

the most anticipated oxime doubts of recent years he is now guaranteed at

:01:42.:01:51.

least $100 million. McGregor is assured 30 million. It was the first

:01:52.:01:58.

time the Irish man had boxed professionally. We will go live to

:01:59.:02:03.

Las Vegas in just a minute. Nick has been watching the match

:02:04.:02:14.

and can tell us the latest. How great is this? What we saw there

:02:15.:02:26.

was an incredible, absolute standout from Conner McGregor. Everyone

:02:27.:02:29.

thought he was going to get knocked out in the first couple of rounds.

:02:30.:02:34.

Floyd Mayweather said he was going to knock him out very shortly,

:02:35.:02:38.

incredible, what happened in the end. It lasted for ten rounds. I

:02:39.:02:43.

found the stands incredible, it really upset Mayweather. He did not

:02:44.:02:48.

know what to do. He eventually found his rhythm and reach and prevailed.

:02:49.:02:59.

Our sports news correspondent, Richard Conway, was watching

:03:00.:03:01.

the fight in Las Vegas and joins us from the arena now.

:03:02.:03:04.

Do you think Conner McGregor can come out of this with his head held

:03:05.:03:14.

high? Yes, we are still in the arena here -- Conor. A lot of respect

:03:15.:03:24.

between the two men. It had been expected that Floyd Mayweather would

:03:25.:03:29.

make short work of him. In the first three rounds, Conner McGregor...

:03:30.:03:39.

People were thinking, is there a shock in store on the cards? Floyd

:03:40.:03:44.

Mayweather Jr asserted his dominance and showed why he is one of the

:03:45.:03:48.

greatest defensive boxers of all time. It went on and on through the

:03:49.:03:52.

rounds with Mayweather landing blow after blow. In the ninth round, you

:03:53.:04:00.

could see where we were, the legs had gone, he was wobbling and tired.

:04:01.:04:05.

In the end, you could see that Floyd Mayweather saw his opportunity. The

:04:06.:04:11.

referee stepped in with just over one minute remaining on the clock. A

:04:12.:04:15.

lot of respect between the two men. Floyd Mayweather Jr saying that this

:04:16.:04:21.

will be his last ever contest, no matter what is put in front of him

:04:22.:04:27.

in terms of offers in the future. He retires with 50 winds and no

:04:28.:04:34.

defeats. Conor McGregor walks of a considerably richer man and with the

:04:35.:04:38.

respect of many in the boxing world. That is a key point, you would

:04:39.:04:42.

wonder where this is going to go to next. McGregor leaving it at 50 and

:04:43.:04:50.

zero. Could you see McGregor coming up against another boxer in future?

:04:51.:04:54.

That is one of the questions that remain unanswered at the moment. It

:04:55.:05:02.

is a huge championship, he is used to a mix of martial arts and other

:05:03.:05:07.

fighting. He has dominated two weight divisions. I think that

:05:08.:05:15.

fights with other boxers could well happen given what we have seen in

:05:16.:05:19.

the bring tonight. Many people thought he would lack the requisite

:05:20.:05:25.

skill, but he has shown to be a confident box. It is perhaps his

:05:26.:05:33.

first fight. He held Floyd Mayweather back for quite a few

:05:34.:05:37.

rounds, although he ultimately prove be too much. Mayweather was pretty

:05:38.:05:46.

adamant in the bring, he was sure that this would be his far north act

:05:47.:05:50.

in a career that has lasted over two decades. 50 winds, no defeats. He

:05:51.:05:56.

will go down as one of the great. Thank you, it was an extraordinary

:05:57.:06:04.

performance. Plenty more reaction to that throughout the morning.

:06:05.:06:09.

For the first time, Labour has committed to keeping the UK

:06:10.:06:12.

in the single market and the customs union for a number of years

:06:13.:06:15.

The plan would mean accepting the free movement of labour

:06:16.:06:19.

beyond the official Brexit date of March 2019.

:06:20.:06:22.

Let's get more detail now from our political correspondent,

:06:23.:06:24.

This story emerging this morning, a big shift for Labour? It is

:06:25.:06:31.

certainly a clarification of their position, at least. For some, it is

:06:32.:06:39.

a significant shift, because they have been accused of having an

:06:40.:06:46.

unclear view on Brexit. This morning, they made one thing clear,

:06:47.:06:51.

that Labour would want a transitional period after the UK

:06:52.:06:55.

leads the EU in 2019. During that period, they would keep the UK

:06:56.:07:02.

within the customs union free trade zone, and the single market, which

:07:03.:07:08.

allows the single free movement of goods, money, people and services.

:07:09.:07:12.

How long that period would blast has not instead. As short as possible

:07:13.:07:16.

but as long as necessary. Keeping options open. Keeping those benefits

:07:17.:07:22.

would mean playing by the rules of the EU and, crucially, paying the

:07:23.:07:27.

bill for membership. This might be music to the ears of some within the

:07:28.:07:32.

Labour Party who want the UK to stay within the EU and keep the benefits

:07:33.:07:36.

of membership as long as possible, but Labour voters who voted Will

:07:37.:07:41.

leave may be wondering where this leaves them. I am sure a lot of

:07:42.:07:45.

people have different opinions. Severe flooding is now the main

:07:46.:07:49.

concern of officials in Texas after Tropical Storm Harvey

:07:50.:07:52.

battered the coast. It has left buildings badly damaged

:07:53.:07:54.

and forced people from their homes. Hundreds of thousands of residents

:07:55.:07:57.

are without power and one death has been reported in

:07:58.:08:00.

the city of Rockport. CBS News reporter Weijia Jiang

:08:01.:08:02.

is in Corpus Christi for us this Still pretty dark at the moment, no

:08:03.:08:15.

power around. It looks a bit more calm than yesterday, how are

:08:16.:08:20.

conditions? It is much more calm, but much of the city of Corpus

:08:21.:08:26.

Christi remains in the dark because of those winds, they brought down so

:08:27.:08:32.

many powerlines. The one behind me was snapped into pieces. As we drove

:08:33.:08:36.

around the city today, we saw a lot of debris, palm trees, light posts

:08:37.:08:42.

down on top of the roads. Frankly, that is not anything compared to

:08:43.:08:48.

what we saw 30 miles from here in rock port, it took the brunt of the

:08:49.:08:56.

impact when Harvey came ashore. Homes and businesses were totally

:08:57.:08:59.

flattened. They are struggling to rebuild, rescue crews have not

:09:00.:09:07.

gotten into some areas. Houston, about 250 miles from where we are, a

:09:08.:09:13.

second death has been confirmed as a result of Harvey because of extreme

:09:14.:09:17.

flooding. Officials say that a woman was trapped in her car, she got out

:09:18.:09:22.

but eventually drowned. The rating is just beginning. That is the

:09:23.:09:26.

problem, the rain is not going anywhere. It is just hanging out

:09:27.:09:30.

above Texas. As officials monitor the rain, officials around these

:09:31.:09:35.

parts are trying to clean up from all the wind. It could get even

:09:36.:09:40.

worse if this system circles back to this area, which is a possibility.

:09:41.:09:45.

We have been looking at pictures of some of the damage, tell us about

:09:46.:09:50.

the rain? That was a real concern, we are expecting water levels to be

:09:51.:09:57.

going up. Is it raining heavily? Right here, it is not. Throughout

:09:58.:10:01.

the day, it came and went, the same in Rockport. It had had a rain than

:10:02.:10:07.

what we experienced hearing Corpus Christi. The concern is around the

:10:08.:10:12.

Houston area. Officials say rain is falling now at about 5-6 inches per

:10:13.:10:18.

hour. They believe that it is going to carry on throughout the overnight

:10:19.:10:23.

hours. The message from the mayor is, stay put. Do not leave the house

:10:24.:10:28.

for any reason, they are describing the conditions outside as

:10:29.:10:33.

catastrophic. A warning that cannot be taken lightly, given that they

:10:34.:10:40.

have just confirmed a second death related to Harvey. Thank you very

:10:41.:10:43.

much. The victims of the Grenfell Tower

:10:44.:10:45.

tragedy will be remembered with a minute's silence this

:10:46.:10:48.

afternoon at the Notting Hill Security for the event has also been

:10:49.:10:51.

reviewed in the wake The Carnival is getting under way.

:10:52.:11:12.

More than 1 million people are expected to fog to the streets of

:11:13.:11:17.

west London over the next two days. Amid the revelry, there will be time

:11:18.:11:21.

to reflect on the grand Falcao a disaster. The ruins of the building

:11:22.:11:25.

still dominate this community. We have survivors coming in, it showers

:11:26.:11:34.

that there is peace and healing for the survivors -- Grenfell Tower.

:11:35.:11:41.

Posters and banners are being made to remember those who died. Police

:11:42.:11:47.

will make sure people keep a respectful distance from the tower.

:11:48.:11:51.

The carnival will be a huge security operation with steel barriers and

:11:52.:11:57.

concrete blocks in stalled. Given the events in Barcelona last week,

:11:58.:12:01.

we have reviewed our plans and security arrangements for the

:12:02.:12:11.

carnival. We believe that we will be highly successful at thwarting any

:12:12.:12:15.

attempts of anything that could compromise a safe and secure

:12:16.:12:19.

carnival. More than 600 people have been arrested in a crackdown on

:12:20.:12:25.

crime ahead of the carnival. Weapons have been seized and officers have

:12:26.:12:29.

kids to test for acid. Police say they are determined that people will

:12:30.:12:33.

be able to enjoy the carnival safely, an event that is being seen

:12:34.:12:37.

as a chance to help the community heal.

:12:38.:12:44.

We can see a police officer behind you, there will be lots of police on

:12:45.:12:55.

duty today? Yes, there is a big security operation going on. A lot

:12:56.:13:01.

of woollies are around the area. One on the barrier here. Over here, you

:13:02.:13:06.

can see people arriving for the carnival even though it does not

:13:07.:13:09.

kick off for another three hours or so. Over here, some properties have

:13:10.:13:14.

in boarded-up to protect the gardens. We have some graffiti over

:13:15.:13:19.

here saying, people mocked profit. That will very much be a theme of

:13:20.:13:25.

the carnival today. It starts at around 9:15 a.m., it is going to be

:13:26.:13:29.

an earlier start than normal. That is because there is going to be a

:13:30.:13:33.

commemoration for those who lost their lives in the tragedy. At three

:13:34.:13:38.

o'clock, there is going to be one minutes' silence. People will be

:13:39.:13:42.

asked to turn off their music completely, and to observe that

:13:43.:13:47.

silence. For the organisers, I think it is pretty much a balancing act.

:13:48.:13:50.

They want that act of remembrance, but they also want people to come in

:13:51.:13:56.

and have a good time. People are arriving this morning determined to

:13:57.:14:00.

have fun. It will also be a balancing act for police, they want

:14:01.:14:05.

to be safe and enjoy themselves but also make sure that things passed

:14:06.:14:12.

off peacefully. Good spirits today, around 1 million people are

:14:13.:14:16.

expected. This is going to be a huge event. Thank you very much. Probably

:14:17.:14:23.

a few people wishing that the music wasn't going on quite so loudly at

:14:24.:14:25.

that time of day. Three minibus passengers including

:14:26.:14:33.

a 5-year-old girl remain seriously ill in hospital, after yesterday's

:14:34.:14:36.

crash on the M1, in which eight Two lorry drivers are being

:14:37.:14:39.

questioned on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving

:14:40.:14:43.

and are in police custody. New cars will have to pass rigorous

:14:44.:14:48.

road emissions tests before The tougher rules are being brought

:14:49.:14:52.

in across the European Union as concern over the harmful effects

:14:53.:14:56.

of nitrogen oxide has grown A Government testing programme found

:14:57.:14:59.

that modern diesel cars emit 6 times more nitrogen oxide in the real

:15:00.:15:04.

world than in the lab. A bit more about that later in the

:15:05.:15:13.

programme. Time to catch up with the weather. Pride in Manchester,

:15:14.:15:20.

Notting Hill Carnival in London. Lots of events taking place.

:15:21.:15:27.

These are the things yesterday. Some of you will get things again late

:15:28.:15:38.

yesterday. There will be some cloud. When the sun comes out, it will feel

:15:39.:15:42.

warm once again. Across southern parts of England, a bit more cloud

:15:43.:15:46.

around. That is producing the odd isolated spot or two of the frame.

:15:47.:15:52.

Low cloud in parts of north-west England. It may threaten some

:15:53.:15:57.

drizzle. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, fair amount of cloud today.

:15:58.:16:04.

The cloud will come and go for North and West Wales. Still some sunshine.

:16:05.:16:09.

Temperatures into the 20s. Further south, the cloud breaking up and

:16:10.:16:12.

into the afternoon, increasingly warm. If you are heading off to one

:16:13.:16:18.

of our events including the cricket, it should stay dry. The fast

:16:19.:16:25.

majority. A bit more cloud developing through Monday. You

:16:26.:16:33.

mentioned Notting Hill Carnival, about breaking up. Tomorrow, even

:16:34.:16:39.

hotter. Tonight, she rain or drizzle. North-west England and

:16:40.:16:42.

Northwest Wales. Quite misty over the hills. Strengthening winds.

:16:43.:16:49.

Which of England and Wales will be dry. Some might unite to take us

:16:50.:16:57.

into Monday. Bank holiday for many of you. High pressure will be your

:16:58.:17:01.

friend. Further north, weather fronts pushing in and that will

:17:02.:17:05.

bring a different story to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Some sunshine

:17:06.:17:09.

to the east of the high ground. The odd heavy burst of rain pushing into

:17:10.:17:17.

the West. Sony breaks and further south-east Anglia and south-east

:17:18.:17:22.

Wales, this is where we will see the clearest of the skies and the

:17:23.:17:26.

highest of the temperatures. We could have the warmest August day so

:17:27.:17:32.

far this month. Things turn a little bit more cool and fresh into next

:17:33.:17:37.

week. A few showers around but a lot of dry weather as well. More updates

:17:38.:17:39.

throughout the morning. Now it's time for the Film Review

:17:40.:17:45.

with Mark Kermode and Julian Hello and welcome to

:17:46.:17:48.

the Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this week's

:17:49.:18:05.

cinema releases is Mark Kermode. We have Detroit, which is

:18:06.:18:08.

the new movie by Kathryn Bigelow. We have Logan Lucky,

:18:09.:18:18.

which I keep wanting to call Lucky Logan because it looks

:18:19.:18:20.

like the look words And Tom Cruise is back doing

:18:21.:18:23.

what he does best in American Made. I'm glad you've got a Logan Lucky

:18:24.:18:32.

issue because I have as well. Detroit, I've seen many

:18:33.:18:36.

rave reviews already. I'm a big fan of Kathryn Bigelow

:18:37.:18:42.

who won an Oscar for The Hurt Locker The film is set in 1967

:18:43.:18:46.

in the Detroit riots, It begins with a broad canvas

:18:47.:18:56.

and the film slowly focuses At the beginning, a speak easy

:18:57.:18:59.

is raided, rioting breaks out, the state troopers and national

:19:00.:19:04.

guardsmen are sent in, We then follow a particular

character played by a musician who is denied his moment

in the spotlight because He takes refuge

:19:13.:19:14.

in the Algiers Motel. The police then discend

on the motel where they believe The police are led by

:19:25.:19:27.

a character called Krause Who is described by writer Mark Boal

:19:28.:19:30.

as a character who is inspired by the recorded deeds of a Detroit

policeman, although he is Meanwhile John Boyega

who is such a brilliant actor, is a security guard who finds

by both sides and attempts to make I'm with United Security,

:19:49.:19:53.

I'm guarding that grocery Hey, all things considered,

:19:54.:20:01.

this is pretty good. You can see from the clip the film

:20:02.:20:16.

is shot with that very, sort of, Barry Ackroyd is a brilliant

:20:17.:20:31.

cinematographer. He's done what Bigelow

:20:32.:20:33.

has done before. Turning fact and fiction,

:20:34.:20:35.

working with Mark Boal, turning something into a drama based

:20:36.:20:37.

on real life but there's The film narrows its focus down

:20:38.:20:40.

until it gets to a single corridor of the Algiers Motel where this

:20:41.:20:45.

terrifying interrogation and worse takes place under the auspices

:20:46.:20:47.

of this cop played by Will Poulter. The thing I like about this is that

:20:48.:20:52.

Kathryn Bigelow is extremely dextrous and the movie seems to move

:20:53.:20:55.

through different genres. It starts off as a social document

:20:56.:20:58.

then moves into something almost a musical at one point,

:20:59.:21:01.

when it is in the hotel it Some people have taken issue

:21:02.:21:04.

with this but you remember Kathryn Bigelow directed Near Dark,

:21:05.:21:08.

which is a vampire Western. I think it's a brilliant

:21:09.:21:11.

horror movie. And later it becomes

:21:12.:21:23.

a courtroom drama. I think those shifts

:21:24.:21:25.

are its strength. Its greatest strength,

:21:26.:21:34.

beyond the way it's put together, the brilliant editing job

:21:35.:21:37.

which leads you through it... It's like jostling through a crowd

:21:38.:21:40.

of people, different stories, different genres, until we're

:21:41.:21:43.

finally focusing But it's the performances

:21:44.:21:44.

that carry it. John Boyega is brilliant,

:21:45.:21:47.

he has a way of telegraphing really strong emotions through the tiniest

:21:48.:21:50.

of facial expressions. He plays a character which has

:21:51.:21:52.

a malevolence hidden under It's a tightrope that

:21:53.:21:56.

could easily fall over The experience was

:21:57.:21:59.

thoroughly immersive. It's often terrifying

:22:00.:22:02.

and Kathryn Bigelow It's an urgent film,

:22:03.:22:05.

despite it having a period setting, Steven Soderbergh is back

and it's a heist movie. It self-described in one moment

:22:34.:22:35.

behind this plan to rob the Charlotte Motor Speedway

:22:36.:22:38.

during the Coca Cola 600. He was going to carry out this heist

:22:39.:22:40.

with his brother Adam Driver. It's a heist caper movie,

who nobody has heard of before, and some people have taken it to be

:23:10.:23:13.

a nom de plume for the director. But they say no, it's

:23:14.:23:17.

someone we've heard before. There is a certain amount of satire,

:23:18.:23:19.

some American flag-waving for Memorial Day, and there's a line

:23:20.:23:22.

in it one person says, "NASCAR is like America,

:23:23.:23:25.

you're making us harm America". But the fact is all that satire

:23:26.:23:28.

is very much like NASCAR, it goes I enjoyed it, it's fun,

:23:29.:23:31.

it's flippant and flimsy. I have a sense you thought about it

:23:32.:23:36.

deeply since you saw it. I have to say, after I finished

:23:37.:23:43.

smiling my way through the movie, I moved to the next

:23:44.:23:47.

thing pretty swiftly. The fact is, it's not easy to make

:23:48.:23:49.

a film that is fun and flippant. There are enough bad movies out

:23:50.:23:53.

there trying to do that. Take us to Tom Cruise

:23:54.:23:56.

and American Made. The thing that Tom Cruise

:23:57.:24:00.

does best is flying, wearing aviator shades and smiling

:24:01.:24:02.

in a way that says, It's inspired by a real life story

:24:03.:24:05.

and some is true and not true. A TWA pilot, who became a drugs

:24:06.:24:12.

and arms smuggler claimed Ended up providing

:24:13.:24:15.

evidence for the DEA. He is recruited by a mysterious

:24:16.:24:18.

shadowy figure played by Donald Gleeson, who never puts

:24:19.:24:20.

a foot wrong. He says I know you are smuggling

:24:21.:24:23.

cigars, and you need You'd run the company

:24:24.:24:26.

but after hours you can work for us. So anyone finds out about it,

:24:27.:25:00.

family, friends, even Lucy. If you're doing it for

:25:01.:25:05.

the good guys, yeah. But there's a lovely moment

:25:06.:25:18.

of threat there when Donal Gleeson What then happens is,

:25:19.:25:28.

he starts off allegedly working for the CIA filming the Communist

:25:29.:25:40.

insurgents, then gets mixed up with Pablo Escobar,

:25:41.:25:43.

flying cocaine to the US, The whole thing has

:25:44.:25:45.

a chaotic momentum. Meanwhile, money is

:25:46.:25:50.

piling up everywhere. So much so they don't have

:25:51.:25:52.

anywhere to put it anymore. It reminded me of a lot of films,

:25:53.:25:55.

things like Air America, War Dogs, The latter is a much more

:25:56.:25:59.

substantial movie which bears up It has that accelerating pace

:26:00.:26:04.

of something like Goodfellas, If you think of things

:26:05.:26:07.

like The Mummy and think, Did I think a character was ever

:26:08.:26:12.

properly three-dimensional? It's a movie that seems to be based

:26:13.:26:22.

around an understanding of, there is a thing that

:26:23.:26:33.

Tom Cruise does. You can like or dislike Tom Cruise,

:26:34.:26:35.

but there is a thing he does That big slightly crazy smile

:26:36.:26:39.

and you buy into it. Again, I thought

:26:40.:26:43.

it was enjoyable fun. Detroit is a movie with such

:26:44.:26:45.

substance and so much going for it, and in the case of American Made

:26:46.:26:49.

and Logan Lucky, not Lucky Logan, they are fun but they won't stick

:26:50.:26:52.

in the mind like Detroit will. One that will stick

:26:53.:26:56.

in the mind is the one You need to see it

:26:57.:26:58.

in IMAX if possible. It is an overwhelming experience,

:26:59.:27:06.

it's Christopher Nolan. The interesting thing

:27:07.:27:09.

is, it's very complex. It is three time structures,

:27:10.:27:23.

one week, one day, one hour. If you have been a fan

:27:24.:27:26.

of Nolan since Memento, you know he's interested

:27:27.:27:29.

in travelling time. I've seen it twice now and both

:27:30.:27:31.

times, the end of the screening, People have literally

:27:32.:27:41.

been like that. That's a testament

:27:42.:27:44.

to how powerful it is. But see it on the biggest

:27:45.:27:46.

screen possible. Florence Pugh is brilliant in this

:27:47.:27:48.

adaptation of the story. The tale of a woman

:27:49.:27:57.

who refuses to confirm, refuses to be down-trodden,

:27:58.:28:01.

is vilified by society That sounds like something only

:28:02.:28:03.

world than in the lab. Now, I know we are going to talk

:32:38.:32:51.

about the boxing, but I just wanted to bring up the heroic performance

:32:52.:32:55.

from the English women's rugby team. A fantastic front-page here.

:32:56.:33:01.

Clearly, they were not going to have the fight in time for their papers,

:33:02.:33:09.

but it really sums it up. It was so frustrating, but what a brilliant

:33:10.:33:13.

game it was. End to end for about 70 minute before New Zealand showed

:33:14.:33:18.

their prowess. They are the number one team in the world at the moment.

:33:19.:33:23.

England were defending that cup titles from three years ago. Fitness

:33:24.:33:31.

prevailed in the end, you could see the English girls getting tired.

:33:32.:33:35.

That is interesting to pick up on, you are going to start with boxing

:33:36.:33:42.

and that maybe what happened with Conor McGregor as well? What

:33:43.:33:48.

happened. We saw at the start that McGregor had a bigger size, digger

:33:49.:33:54.

reach, all the commentators were astounded by how big he was. They

:33:55.:33:58.

were talking about how much fluid he had in his body after the weigh in.

:33:59.:34:02.

He must have let himself eat as much as he wanted, he looked really big

:34:03.:34:07.

and in control. I have got the scorecard hot off the press. This

:34:08.:34:12.

award is the first two rounds to Conor McGregor, that is how we saw

:34:13.:34:21.

it as well. All of the judges giving 10s to Floyd Mayweather. That is

:34:22.:34:25.

what the judges ultimately determined, he would have always

:34:26.:34:28.

been ahead on points until the 10th round. Of course, none of us are

:34:29.:34:35.

experts, even though that is how we saw it. McGregor was coming forward

:34:36.:34:40.

a bit, Mayweather had never seen him box like that before, didn't know

:34:41.:34:49.

what to expect. And on orthodox stance. Taking out his weapons at

:34:50.:34:55.

the kick. He didn't know what to do, but at the same time, he had some

:34:56.:34:59.

speed at the start. It through Mayweather until he could come

:35:00.:35:04.

through and show the defence that is ultimately his strong point.

:35:05.:35:08.

England's women were beaten by New Zealand in the final

:35:09.:35:11.

England - who were the title holders - lost 41 points to 32 in Belfast.

:35:12.:35:18.

It was a contest that will go down as a classic, although that won't

:35:19.:35:33.

stand the tears. It was the fourth time England have lost a World Cup

:35:34.:35:38.

far north to New Zealand. We put a huge amount of pressure on

:35:39.:35:43.

ourselves, expectation and that. We pulled up short today and it will be

:35:44.:35:48.

hard to get over. It took just seven minutes for New Zealand to click

:35:49.:35:55.

into gear. Going from zero to the goal line in very little time. A

:35:56.:35:59.

penalty try was followed by something more expensive, punching

:36:00.:36:05.

through the New Zealand defence. The match Swan, England tried to wrestle

:36:06.:36:09.

control. Then, Thompson managed this. The far north is living up to

:36:10.:36:18.

the hope. With 20 minutes to go, New Zealand showed what they are famous

:36:19.:36:25.

for. There was no stopping them. New Zealand on top of the world for a

:36:26.:36:31.

fifth time England. 'S rain as champions is over in devastating

:36:32.:36:35.

style. It may not be much consolation right now, but they did

:36:36.:36:40.

contribute to a thrilling far north -- England's. -- reign.

:36:41.:37:01.

England have it all to do in the second Test against

:37:02.:37:04.

They'll start day three, 71 runs behind, with the visitors

:37:05.:37:07.

Hull FC won rugby league's Challenge Cup for the second

:37:08.:37:19.

consecutive season after a dramatic 18-14 victory over Wigan.

:37:20.:37:22.

In a tight and tense match at Wembley, Hull just managed

:37:23.:37:25.

to keep ahead thanks to two tries from the Tongan winger Mahe Fonua

:37:26.:37:28.

and the kicking from man-of-the match Mark Sneyd.

:37:29.:37:30.

Manchester United have maintained their perfect start

:37:31.:37:32.

It's now three wins out of three and ten goals without conceding

:37:33.:37:37.

Not for the first time, Schmeichel will like being a hero at Old

:37:38.:37:44.

Trafford. But Jose Mourinho is as widely as the foxes. Substitutes

:37:45.:37:47.

changed his fortunes. Last season, united won their opening three

:37:48.:37:50.

matches but could only finish sixth. The special one is not getting

:37:51.:37:53.

carried away yet. Step-by-step, my contract is three seasons. Let's see

:37:54.:38:00.

if we manage to improve the club and the team. Manchester City kept in

:38:01.:38:05.

touch with their neighbours, but they had win over Bournmouth came to

:38:06.:38:11.

prize. Raheem Sterling was sent off after celebrating and will miss

:38:12.:38:16.

their next match against Liverpool. Brighton's first point in the

:38:17.:38:20.

Premier League is likely to be remembered by this foul. It left

:38:21.:38:27.

Watford down to ten men for more than one hour. The visitors were not

:38:28.:38:32.

able to take advantage. Crystal Palace tried to play like Ajax, but

:38:33.:38:41.

Swansea saw their third straight defeat. Joe Hart shored up the

:38:42.:38:48.

defence. Newcastle put three past the English number one. He has been

:38:49.:38:54.

beaten ten times in three games, leaving the Hammers rock bottom.

:38:55.:39:03.

A bit of a surprise as Celtic were held to a draw at home. There were

:39:04.:39:11.

wins for Motherwell and Aberdeen. England have it all to do

:39:12.:39:13.

in the second Test against They'll start day three,

:39:14.:39:16.

71 runs behind, with the visitors Day two belonged to the West Indies

:39:17.:39:20.

as Kraigg Brathwaite and Shai Hope England went nearly six hours

:39:21.:39:24.

without taking a wicket. Stuart Broad dismissed Brathwaite

:39:25.:39:28.

and Ben Stokes took a late wicket It was a strange day for us. I

:39:29.:39:49.

thought we started well, conditions this morning with the cloud cover

:39:50.:39:53.

and the floodlights, it was moving around quite a bit. When the sun

:39:54.:39:57.

came out, the pitch got a bit slower. I guess we bowled well in

:39:58.:40:02.

patches. We put some things in the right area, but we were not

:40:03.:40:06.

consistent enough. Too many balls for them to release the pressure.

:40:07.:40:11.

The two guys who got centuries batted really well.

:40:12.:40:13.

Lewis Hamilton will start from pole for this afternoon's

:40:14.:40:16.

Belgian Grand Prix after smashing the lap record at Spa.

:40:17.:40:18.

It's the first race back from the summer break,

:40:19.:40:21.

but the three time world champion was quickly into his groove,

:40:22.:40:24.

pipping championship leader Sebastian Vettel who'll

:40:25.:40:25.

It's the 68th pole of Hamilton's career, equalling the all-time

:40:26.:40:29.

Britain's Chris Froome has extended his lead on the eighth

:40:30.:40:33.

The 4-time Tour de France champion showed he's still in great shape

:40:34.:40:38.

attacking his main rivals on the final climb of the day three

:40:39.:40:41.

Frenchman Julian Alaphillipe took the stage win, but Froome won't have

:40:42.:40:45.

minded as his advantage grew to 28 seconds.

:40:46.:40:50.

And finally, Andy Murray will miss tennis' final grand slam

:40:51.:40:53.

of the year, the US Open, after withdrawing through injury.

:40:54.:41:01.

He's struggled with his hip and hasn't played since Wimbledon

:41:02.:41:04.

last month, but said it's too sore to win the tournament,

:41:05.:41:07.

It's the first time Murray has withdrawn from a Grand Slam for more

:41:08.:41:11.

Very distressing, he broke down in the press conference telling the

:41:12.:41:21.

media what is happening. Some argue whether he should have travelled all

:41:22.:41:30.

the way over. A number of weeks off, after Wimbledon, I spoke to a lot of

:41:31.:41:40.

hip specialists, tried breast and rehabilitation to try and get myself

:41:41.:41:46.

ready, I was progressing OK the last few days, but it's to soar for me to

:41:47.:41:54.

win the tournament. Ultimately, that is what I was here to try and do.

:41:55.:42:02.

Whether surgery is an option is the next step.

Whether surgery is an option is the next

Tropical Strom Harvey has left a trail of devastation after winds

:42:06.:42:08.

of up to 130 miles per hour hit the Texas coastline.

:42:09.:42:11.

Officials say it could take years for the state to recover.

:42:12.:42:14.

One person is known to have died and there are fears some residents

:42:15.:42:18.

Jesus and Caroline Portillo join us now from the city of Corpus Christi.

:42:19.:42:24.

They are among 300 thousand people left without any electricity.

:42:25.:42:29.

Good morning, thank you for your time. How are things they are at the

:42:30.:42:40.

moment? -- there. They are a bit more calm, not as chaotic as they

:42:41.:42:46.

were last night. We had about 90 mph winds over the house. There was some

:42:47.:42:52.

rain creeping around the corner for us. That was later in the evening.

:42:53.:43:00.

It was happening as we were falling asleep that the raids would come

:43:01.:43:05.

back. We have been waiting for that to happen, so we were prepared for

:43:06.:43:11.

anything. Can you tell us where you are, who is with you, how you have

:43:12.:43:18.

spent the last 24 hours? I am at a house with my wife and

:43:19.:43:23.

brother-in-law, who is a medic and firefighter. We have been in this

:43:24.:43:29.

house for at least... We are just outside of Corpus Christi, we have

:43:30.:43:37.

been without power now going on... More than 24 hours. We have got a

:43:38.:43:48.

generator, we have plenty of water. There are some places that have more

:43:49.:43:58.

services than we have, about 15 minutes away. I have some friends

:43:59.:44:03.

who are currently looking for new housing because they can't come back

:44:04.:44:09.

to their home. We are looking at pictures of the area at the moment.

:44:10.:44:17.

Do you know what the area around you is like? Have you ventured out at

:44:18.:44:21.

all? We have a little bit, immediately around us, we are very

:44:22.:44:29.

sound. The trees that have broken down and things like that are safe,

:44:30.:44:36.

but within 15 minutes, houses have reached that have come off, you go

:44:37.:44:42.

another 45 minutes and that is just... Devastation, people who have

:44:43.:44:53.

lost their homes. It is underwater. Talking about Rockport in those

:44:54.:44:58.

areas, our friends don't have homes any more. That is tragic and it must

:44:59.:45:06.

be extremely frightening. Thank you for talking to us. Stay safe. That

:45:07.:45:19.

was regarding tropical storm Harvey, affecting Texas and the east coast.

:45:20.:45:20.

Time to look at the weather. I think the worst might be over. The

:45:21.:45:35.

maximum wind strength we has is 50 mph. Here is the radar picture from

:45:36.:45:40.

the last 12 hours. You have spokes of heavy rain. Bright colours

:45:41.:45:47.

circling around. The worst of the weather is the North and east of

:45:48.:45:53.

Corpus Christi. Relentless rain here over the past 24 hours. Still up to

:45:54.:46:02.

one metre's worth of rain. Always true to even Wednesday. The national

:46:03.:46:07.

weather service in the United States is still warning of catastrophic

:46:08.:46:17.

flooding. Not great. Let's head back to our weather because we have

:46:18.:46:23.

things much, much quieter. A lovely start to the day. Here is the view

:46:24.:46:27.

from one of our Weather Watcher is in double cheer. It is shaping up to

:46:28.:46:32.

be a dry day for most across the country. The odd spot of rain. Most

:46:33.:46:41.

will be dry. Some light rain or drizzle will be brought to the

:46:42.:46:46.

hills. Any sunshine it you see will be a bit on the hazy side and there

:46:47.:46:50.

could be some drizzle on the hills. Dry today. Warmest of the further

:46:51.:46:59.

south you are. With some sunny spells, you will feel warm here at

:47:00.:47:06.

Headingley. There will be more cloud later in the day. We may have clear

:47:07.:47:11.

blue skies taking us into this afternoon and from Monday.

:47:12.:47:17.

Temperatures up to 28 degrees. A bit more cloud through tomorrow. Into

:47:18.:47:22.

tonight, to get us to tomorrow, cloud increased. Outbreaks of rain

:47:23.:47:27.

bit heavy at times for the North of Scotland. North-west England.

:47:28.:47:35.

Temperatures in the mid teens. Bank holiday for the vast majority. Where

:47:36.:47:39.

you are under the high pressure, that is your friend. Keeping things

:47:40.:47:44.

dry. The exception in parts of Northern Ireland. You will see

:47:45.:47:49.

strengthening breeze. A bit of sunshine. It went to be a completely

:47:50.:47:54.

wet day. For northern England, North and West Wales, you will have some

:47:55.:48:03.

sunny spells. Southern parts of England is where we will see the

:48:04.:48:08.

hottest of the weather. 82 Fahrenheit by the end of the

:48:09.:48:12.

afternoon. It is from thereon, it gets a bit fresher into next week. A

:48:13.:48:17.

bit fresher but a lot of dry weather, too.

:48:18.:48:18.

We'll be back with the headlines in just over ten minutes time.

:48:19.:48:21.

The roads are crammed, the horn is omnipresent

:48:22.:49:03.

Well, the rules are here somewhere, I'm sure of it.

:49:04.:49:06.

And that's why we won't be doing a piece about self driving cars

:49:07.:49:10.

Despite the fact that it seems like everyone in India travels

:49:11.:49:18.

a car, that's not true by any means, many people choose

:49:19.:49:21.

But, if you think that's any less intense, think again.

:49:22.:49:29.

Mumbai Central Station is a massive heaving hub connecting the city

:49:30.:49:38.

But, if you look closer you'll see something else connecting

:49:39.:49:45.

the commuters to the rest of the world.

:49:46.:49:49.

116 wireless access points provide free Wi-Fi to anyone

:49:50.:49:52.

It has been provided by Google which at the moment says

:49:53.:49:56.

about two and half terabytes are being downloaded here every day.

:49:57.:50:01.

And here's the interesting part, this is not just about the station,

:50:02.:50:07.

along India's railway tracks lie 45,000 kilometres of optic cables

:50:08.:50:13.

and Google is piping internet access down those cables to feed Wi-Fi

:50:14.:50:16.

access to 114 other train stations as well.

:50:17.:50:24.

I caught up with he man overseeing the project

:50:25.:50:27.

If you had to take one place in the country where you want

:50:28.:50:37.

tremendous fibre and you had to have reliable power, relatively speaking

:50:38.:50:40.

power is a challenge across the country and you had

:50:41.:50:43.

to have an entire country walking there at that one place,

:50:44.:50:46.

there is only one place that is the railway stations.

:50:47.:50:50.

Can you guarantee that all services on Google's Wi-Fi

:50:51.:50:52.

Absolutely, I think the whole motivation for us, if you look

:50:53.:51:01.

at the reason why we did this, was to see if we can provide an open

:51:02.:51:05.

internet completely open with access for the entire web,

:51:06.:51:08.

So, there is a fibre-optic network that's rolling out from train

:51:09.:51:19.

stations like this to the vast global areas of this enormous

:51:20.:51:22.

country and David Reid hopped on a train to find out what affects

:51:23.:51:26.

It's hard not to be romantic about India's Railways.

:51:27.:51:45.

British colonial rulers laid tracks for control,

:51:46.:51:55.

shifting resources, mostly out, and prising open markets.

:51:56.:51:58.

Now, it's about moving people, millions a day thanks

:51:59.:52:00.

I took the train here to Jaipur to investigate,

:52:01.:52:10.

it has proper broadband and it's free.

:52:11.:52:12.

Apart from some controversy at another station where commuters

:52:13.:52:21.

were using free Wi-Fi to download hard-core pornography,

:52:22.:52:23.

the provision of high-speed Wi-Fi has been almost universally praised.

:52:24.:52:32.

90,000 people pass through Jaipur station every day.

:52:33.:52:41.

I'm using my Wi-Fi for entertainment,

:52:42.:52:43.

For this student journalist it means she can keep tabs

:52:44.:52:52.

In the morning the world changes like...

:52:53.:52:58.

There are so many things that have changed so I have to come and check.

:52:59.:53:05.

Indian stations are full of thriving businesses feeding off,

:53:06.:53:09.

or simply feeding the thousands streaming through them every day.

:53:10.:53:13.

Free Wi-Fi has actually been a boost to local businesses here,

:53:14.:53:18.

this man runs a tea store on the station platform,

:53:19.:53:21.

he's making more money now that his customers can make

:53:22.:53:24.

TRANSLATION: I use the Wi-Fi when my 4G signal doesn't catch.

:53:25.:53:33.

When that's not working I used the Wi-Fi.

:53:34.:53:36.

Especially when a customer is paying through digital payments,

:53:37.:53:38.

I needed to confirm that I have received the payment.

:53:39.:53:41.

Digital payments are worth about 40 - 50% of my takings.

:53:42.:53:47.

This is music to the ears of people managing India's Railways,

:53:48.:53:50.

a nationalised industry that runs at a loss.

:53:51.:53:53.

They are thinking that high-speed Wi-Fi could be a good pool

:53:54.:54:02.

for a station like Jaipur, they plan to build a huge

:54:03.:54:05.

concourse and attract retail and service businesses.

:54:06.:54:07.

As Wi-Fi expands and becomes taken for granted then I think people

:54:08.:54:14.

will transact more and more of their business.

:54:15.:54:16.

Jaipur is a kind of domestic, tourist hub and an international

:54:17.:54:22.

People are coming out here from all parts of the world

:54:23.:54:27.

so now when you have a huge concourse it becomes an area

:54:28.:54:30.

where you can have shops, entertainment spots...

:54:31.:54:32.

For Google, more people online is more people to sell to,

:54:33.:54:35.

India's Railways the country's backbone, its public Wi-Fi is poised

:54:36.:54:38.

This is the Anjuman-Urdu primary school in the town

:54:39.:55:04.

This 155 kids here from grades one through to seven and a whole bunch

:55:05.:55:10.

And this is how they start their day.

:55:11.:55:13.

Over in this classroom things are a little more serious.

:55:14.:55:26.

At the back of the projector there is a device which is plugged

:55:27.:55:39.

in and is running videos on English, maths, and science.

:55:40.:55:42.

The videos are made for the entire region, but then they are dubbed

:55:43.:55:46.

in different dialects, different languages, depending

:55:47.:55:47.

Today we're learning about fractions.

:55:48.:55:52.

It is a great teaching tool as long as there is electricity.

:55:53.:55:56.

But there are plenty of times when there isn't.

:55:57.:56:07.

Earlier it would have been difficult to teach due to power cuts.

:56:08.:56:11.

We would get electricity in the mornings, but as the day

:56:12.:56:14.

passed by in the afternoon we would have power cuts

:56:15.:56:17.

That's why the projector and tablet are hooked up to this box,

:56:18.:56:22.

which is itself attached to a solar panel on the roof.

:56:23.:56:30.

Together they can provide up to five hours of electricity a day,

:56:31.:56:33.

meaning that classes don't have to be interrupted or cancelled

:56:34.:56:36.

TRANSLATION: Then we started using solar power as it is

:56:37.:56:40.

an easy and natural source of generating electricity.

:56:41.:56:42.

We have introduced the study of generating power through solar

:56:43.:56:45.

energy to our students and are teaching them

:56:46.:56:47.

We also explained to our students that this process will

:56:48.:56:52.

help us in the future to generate electricity.

:56:53.:56:54.

This whole system has been provided by the Selco Foundation,

:56:55.:56:57.

an Indian charity with the hope to alleviate poverty

:56:58.:57:00.

With this students can get better education.

:57:01.:57:07.

And then there is no problem of electricity.

:57:08.:57:09.

At any time they can take their students to the classroom,

:57:10.:57:12.

Selco and other NGOs they work with pay for half of the cost

:57:13.:57:22.

of installing the projector and solar system.

:57:23.:57:23.

The other half comes from local schools or local government.

:57:24.:57:26.

TRANSLATION: Before this project came into use it

:57:27.:57:36.

But since we have started using the solar power,

:57:37.:57:41.

our number of students has increased in a good way.

:57:42.:57:44.

We have students coming to us from different villages to learn.

:57:45.:57:47.

And not only students, we have other schools coming down

:57:48.:57:50.

The smart class is a good way of teaching kids these days.

:57:51.:58:00.

They seem to enjoy and learn more than usual.

:58:01.:58:02.

After we introduce smart class our school stands proudly

:58:03.:58:05.

We plan to grow large as the years pass by.

:58:06.:58:08.

The same system is already in hundreds of rural schools

:58:09.:58:17.

and they are aiming to add hundreds more this year.

:58:18.:58:20.

Across rural India businesses can be helped massively by having

:58:21.:58:28.

Sumana is a seamstress who lives a short drive from Kunapur.

:58:29.:58:34.

She became the main breadwinner for the family after her

:58:35.:58:37.

The more clothing she can repair the more she gets paid.

:58:38.:58:45.

With her old hand operated sewing machine she could fix

:58:46.:58:48.

a couple of items a day, but thanks to the solar panels

:58:49.:58:51.

on her roof her electric machine can whizz through five or six

:58:52.:58:54.

Plus, she has a fan, a TV, and a light, so she can

:58:55.:58:59.

One quarter of India's rural population lives below

:59:00.:59:07.

That's 216 million people whose livelihoods could be improved

:59:08.:59:14.

by the addition of basic facilities like electricity.

:59:15.:59:18.

And, of course, one key way of helping people out

:59:19.:59:21.

It's always such a privilege to come to a place like this and see how

:59:22.:59:31.

the simplest technology can make a world of difference.

:59:32.:59:35.

You can see plenty of photos and more backstage gossip on twitter.

The most lucrative boxing bout in history went 10 rounds,

But it was the American boxer who came out on top as the referee

coming up. After all of the hype,

came the fight. The most lucrative boxing bout

in history came to a dramatic Just over an hour ago

:01:43.:01:45.

Floyd Mayweather beat Ireland's Conor McGregor after 10

:01:46.:01:50.

rounds in one of the mostg anticipated boxing

:01:51.:01:53.

bouts of recent times. 40-year-old Mayweather

of $30 million. Our sports news correspondent

:02:05.:02:10.

Richard Conway was watching the fight in Las Vegas

:02:11.:02:12.

and joins us now. Conor McGregor leaves a rich man

:02:13.:02:22.

with his head held high? Yes, he is considerably richer. He has

:02:23.:02:32.

confounded many of his critics. He came into the ring tonight, guns

:02:33.:02:40.

blazing in the first three rounds. Troubling Floyd Mayweather with a

:02:41.:02:45.

number of shots. Then, the dominance, skill and experience of

:02:46.:02:49.

Floyd Mayweather came to the fore. Over the next few rounds, he started

:02:50.:02:54.

to assert his presence and landed a number of lows against Conor

:02:55.:03:00.

McGregor. He was visibly tired. Lazy the ninth rounds, it was clear he

:03:01.:03:05.

was not going to the distance. The referee stepped in in the 10th round

:03:06.:03:09.

with just over one minute remaining. Drawing it to conclusion. At the end

:03:10.:03:18.

of the fight, it was a stark contrast to the buildup to this

:03:19.:03:22.

controversial fight. We are now waiting for the press conferences

:03:23.:03:26.

here in the arena. Both men returning to the ring to give their

:03:27.:03:35.

view on what has just happened. Interesting ideas from people who

:03:36.:03:39.

were watching it here in the UK, praising the heart and courage that

:03:40.:03:44.

he showed in what is effectively a new sport for McGregor. Floyd

:03:45.:03:49.

Mayweather retires undefeated in 50 fights, some discussion as to

:03:50.:03:54.

whether or not he should be retiring, this was an event rather

:03:55.:04:01.

than a title bout? Not a title fight, but he did want to go out on

:04:02.:04:07.

a high. Going out with 50 wins under his belt, he wanted it just this

:04:08.:04:17.

way. The sport and legitimacy of this contest has been questioned for

:04:18.:04:21.

a number of weeks. Many people question whether a mixed martial

:04:22.:04:29.

artist could really compete. Thinking perhaps he would be showing

:04:30.:04:38.

up confused. Some of the homophobic slurs and sexist language, the way

:04:39.:04:43.

that both men behave, that has tarnished some of the buildup here.

:04:44.:04:49.

The fight itself certainly past expectations. : McGregor walks off,

:04:50.:04:58.

going back to UFC with his sporting reputation intact, Floyd Mayweather

:04:59.:05:04.

confirming his reputation as one of the greatest boxers of all time.

:05:05.:05:09.

For the first time, Labour has committed to keeping the UK

:05:10.:05:12.

in the single market and the customs union for a number of years

:05:13.:05:16.

The plan would mean accepting the free movement of labour

:05:17.:05:22.

beyond the official Brexit date of March 2019.

:05:23.:05:25.

Let's get more detail now from our political correspondent,

:05:26.:05:27.

I am a little bit confused. As late as June this year, the Shadow

:05:28.:05:35.

Chancellor seemed to be ruling out staying in the single market. This

:05:36.:05:40.

is a significant shift in policy for Labour? Yes, it is. At least it is a

:05:41.:05:47.

clarification of policy. For some time, critics have said it is

:05:48.:05:51.

confused. For many, it is a significant shift. The shadow Brexit

:05:52.:05:57.

Secretary is setting out a plan for the UK to stay in the single market

:05:58.:06:03.

allowing the freedom of movement of people, goods, services and money,

:06:04.:06:11.

and the EU, if the UK leads the EU, we would stay in those single market

:06:12.:06:16.

and the customs union during a transitional period. How long would

:06:17.:06:22.

that last? They are not putting a time limit on it, saying it would be

:06:23.:06:26.

as short as possible but as long as necessary.

:06:27.:06:32.

Keeping those benefits would mean playing by the rules of the EU and,

:06:33.:06:36.

crucially, paying the bill for membership.

:06:37.:06:38.

This might be music to the ears of some within the Labour Party

:06:39.:06:41.

who want the UK to stay within the EU and keep the benefits

:06:42.:06:45.

of membership as long as possible, but Labour voters who voted

:06:46.:06:48.

may be wondering where this leaves them.

:06:49.:06:50.

They have said that we could stay a member of the customs union in

:06:51.:06:56.

future, and maintain the benefits of a single market, while getting a

:06:57.:07:00.

slightly different deal on immigration. It will be difficult

:07:01.:07:04.

because the EU has been clear that you cannot cherry pick the benefits.

:07:05.:07:11.

Music to the ears of some who want to maintain the benefits of being

:07:12.:07:16.

part of the EU, but others will be saying, this looks a lot like

:07:17.:07:20.

membership of the EU by the back door.

:07:21.:07:23.

Severe flooding is now the main concern of officials in Texas

:07:24.:07:26.

after Tropical Storm Harvey battered the coast.

:07:27.:07:28.

It has left buildings badly damaged and forced people from their homes.

:07:29.:07:31.

Hundreds of thousands of residents are without power and one death has

:07:32.:07:34.

been reported in the city of Rockport.

:07:35.:07:36.

CBS News reporter Weijia Jiang is in Corpus Christi for us this

:07:37.:07:40.

It is much more calm, but much of the city of Corpus

:07:41.:07:49.

Christi remains in the dark because of those hurricane force

:07:50.:07:52.

winds, they brought down so many powerlines.

:07:53.:07:54.

The one behind me was snapped into pieces.

:07:55.:07:58.

The second part of this is the rain, and that is going to make the

:07:59.:08:05.

cleanup effort is very difficult. what we saw 30 miles

:08:06.:08:13.

from here in Rockport, it took the brunt of the impact

:08:14.:08:15.

when Harvey came ashore. It is difficult to look at a town

:08:16.:08:22.

that just has the remains strewn about. Here in Corpus Christi, there

:08:23.:08:29.

is degree, lampposts, a lot of things in the street. But they are,

:08:30.:08:34.

you can see completely levelled buildings and all sorts of material,

:08:35.:08:40.

even brick buildings were ripped apart. People who decided to stay

:08:41.:08:45.

there, who did not evacuate, we were watching them and they were all

:08:46.:08:50.

still in a state of shock that this was their town. They did not

:08:51.:08:55.

recognise it. They are trying to clean up but they worry that the

:08:56.:08:59.

system could whip back around to them. Houston tonight will be

:09:00.:09:09.

dealing with a lot of catastrophic flooding.

:09:10.:09:09.

The victims of the Grenfell Tower tragedy will be remembered

:09:10.:09:12.

ill be remembered with a minute's silence this afternoon

:09:13.:09:15.

Security for the event has also been reviewed in the wake

:09:16.:09:19.

More than 1 million people are expected to flock to the streets

:09:20.:09:40.

of west London over the next two days.

:09:41.:10:00.

Amid the revelry, there will be time to reflect

:10:01.:10:03.

The ruins of the building still dominate this community.

:10:04.:10:13.

We have survivors coming in, it shows

:10:14.:10:18.

that there is peace and healing for the survivors.

:10:19.:10:27.

Posters and banners are being made to remember those who died.

:10:28.:10:30.

Police will make sure people keep a respectful distance

:10:31.:10:33.

The carnival will be a huge security

:10:34.:10:35.

operation with steel barriers and

:10:36.:10:37.

Given the events in Barcelona last week,

:10:38.:10:40.

we have reviewed our plans and

:10:41.:10:42.

security arrangements for the

:10:43.:10:43.

We believe that we will be highly successful at thwarting any attempts

:10:44.:10:47.

of anything that could compromise a safe and secure

:10:48.:10:49.

More than 600 people have been arrested in a crackdown on

:10:50.:10:52.

Weapons have been seized and officers have

:10:53.:10:55.

Police say they are determined that people will be able to enjoy

:10:56.:11:00.

the carnival safely, an event that is being seen

:11:01.:11:03.

as a chance to help the community heal.

:11:04.:11:05.

And Simon Jones is in Notting Hill for us this morning.

:11:06.:11:10.

Very much time for the community to come together today? Absolutely. It

:11:11.:11:17.

will be a celebration but a commemoration as well. There is

:11:18.:11:21.

going to be a lot of security. You can see a big group of police

:11:22.:11:26.

officers coming down. The carnival does not kick off for another couple

:11:27.:11:31.

of hours. We are seeing thousands of revellers on the streets. Noisy and

:11:32.:11:35.

enjoying the situation. They want to have a good day. Grenfell is going

:11:36.:11:45.

to be on people's mines. You can see some graffiti here, people will not

:11:46.:11:52.

profit. There will be a special commemoration for those who lost

:11:53.:11:56.

their lives. Dogs are going to be released and there is going to be a

:11:57.:12:03.

minutes' silence. It is a balancing act. The organisers want people to

:12:04.:12:08.

have fun but they also want people to remember. Same with police, they

:12:09.:12:14.

want people to enjoy themselves but they have the security situation on

:12:15.:12:20.

their hands. A number of people monitoring security. Thank you very

:12:21.:12:26.

much. Three minibus passengers including

:12:27.:12:28.

a 5-year-old girl remain seriously ill in hospital, after yesterday's

:12:29.:12:30.

crash on the M1, in which eight Two lorry drivers are being

:12:31.:12:34.

questioned on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving

:12:35.:12:38.

and are in police custody. New cars will have to pass rigorous

:12:39.:12:42.

road emissions tests before being allowed on UK streets.

:12:43.:12:45.

The tougher rules are being brought in across the European Union

:12:46.:12:48.

as concern over the harmful effects of nitrogen oxide has grown

:12:49.:12:51.

since the Volkswagen diesel scandal. A Government testing programme found

:12:52.:13:02.

that modern diesel cars emit 6 times more nitrogen oxide in the real

:13:03.:13:06.

world than in the lab. Those are the main news stories.

:13:07.:13:20.

Going back to our main story and that is the fight of the century.

:13:21.:13:29.

In the end the class and skill of the undefeated champ

:13:30.:13:32.

Former heavyweight champion, David Haye was watching and he joins

:13:33.:13:35.

Nice to see you, what did you make of it? I was very pleased. I did not

:13:36.:13:46.

think Conor McGregor would have a chance in this fight. But he won the

:13:47.:13:51.

first three or four rounds. Nobody anticipated him going into the

:13:52.:13:55.

second half of the fight, but he showed some unorthodox moves. He

:13:56.:14:01.

showed heart and endurance. Something he has never shown us

:14:02.:14:07.

before, I have to really take my hat off to him. He is not a box. He was

:14:08.:14:13.

not a professional. He went in there with arguably the greatest boxer

:14:14.:14:21.

ever, he got stuck on his feet. He did not get not doubt. You have to

:14:22.:14:25.

give Conor McGregor nothing but respect. You say he showed

:14:26.:14:29.

endurance, but his fitness seemed to tell in the end. You could see his

:14:30.:14:35.

arms were tired. We surprised by that? No, I am not surprised about

:14:36.:14:42.

that. We are talking about someone who is not used to doing 12

:14:43.:14:50.

three-minute rounds. He has done in judo and wrestling, boxing, you just

:14:51.:14:57.

use your arms. Floyd Mayweather, the first few rounds, it allowed him to

:14:58.:15:14.

use and expand his energy. Millions of people paid $100 apiece to watch

:15:15.:15:23.

the fight. The ticket I had cost seven and a half thousand dollars,

:15:24.:15:27.

and it wasn't even a great seat. He made a hell of a lot of money in

:15:28.:15:32.

this event because people wanted to see it. I was very happy with the

:15:33.:15:38.

fact they got through so many rounds. I don't know if you had to

:15:39.:15:45.

pay for that yourself, but that is a lot of money. This was never going

:15:46.:15:50.

to be the fight that defined Mayweather's career, but were you

:15:51.:15:54.

happy to see him come out off retirement and perform the way he

:15:55.:16:00.

did? I am not surprised. He is a professional, he doesn't drink

:16:01.:16:06.

alcohol or take drugs, he is always in fantastic physical condition.

:16:07.:16:11.

Taking a few years out would not have harmed him physically. He came

:16:12.:16:16.

into this fight. It looked for me like he gave Conor McGregor the

:16:17.:16:22.

early rounds. He was not trying to assert himself at the start. He

:16:23.:16:30.

might have gotten an early victory, that would have left the Irish fans

:16:31.:16:45.

very unhappy. He left the ring with dignity. Everyone was happy. A great

:16:46.:16:50.

night's entertainment. A fight we knew what the result was going to

:16:51.:16:52.

be. It was a good fight. The rounds are the professional

:16:53.:17:36.

boxing match, you were to say that. He could have future in boxing if

:17:37.:17:42.

sticks to it. I'm pretty sure once he sees the check. Though it be

:17:43.:17:49.

surprised if Mayweather walks away with 3- $4 million from this one

:17:50.:17:54.

night. When the cheque comes in, I'm sure he went mind doing it again. It

:17:55.:18:00.

is easy money for him. -- he won't mind. I wouldn't be surprised.

:18:01.:18:10.

Thanks so much. I watering amounts of money. Would

:18:11.:18:22.

people get so excited about it now they know the way it panned out? I

:18:23.:18:26.

don't know. I think because he showed he could do it. He showed he

:18:27.:18:31.

could at least take it to him in a number of rounds and on his first

:18:32.:18:33.

fight. Unbelievable. Here's Matt with a look

:18:34.:18:34.

at this morning's weather. If you have to get up early on a

:18:35.:18:51.

Sunday morning, it might as well be for a view like this. For most of

:18:52.:18:57.

you, try and find day with some sunshine. -- find day. Not blue

are heading off to the Leeds Cunningham all. -- Carnival. It will

:19:39.:19:46.

clear for the Notting Hill Carnival. Blue skies into Monday. To get

:19:47.:19:53.

there, we will see a bit of a north-south split developing because

:19:54.:19:56.

southern and eastern areas, clear through tonight. To the north and

:19:57.:20:03.

west, much more cloud. Don't be surprised Northern Ireland,

:20:57.:20:58.

throughout the morning. Time for a look at the morning's

papers. The writer, Paul Vallely

:21:06.:21:10.

is here to tell us We'll speak to Paul

:21:11.:21:12.

in just a minute. The page of the Observer has a

:21:13.:21:35.

number of different story. It is about Labour. We have been reporting

:21:36.:21:41.

this morning that Labour have made a dramatic shift on Brexit in the

:21:42.:21:45.

single market. They say they would like to stay in the single market

:21:46.:21:50.

after the official Brexit date of March 20 19. A dreadful story on the

:21:51.:21:54.

front page of the Sunday express about a terrible crush on the M1

:21:55.:21:58.

motorway in which eight men were killed --8 people were killed. A

:21:59.:22:04.

hole in her life. The Sunday Times talking about fat cats pay. It is

:22:34.:22:49.

said that's 100 enjoying company perks like BMW's. Ministers. They

:22:50.:22:57.

are being told they must cap their salaries. The Mail on Sunday. A lot

:22:58.:23:06.

of talk before the election putting workers on company boards, people

:23:07.:23:10.

thinking the Conservatives will go to crack down on capitalism.

:23:11.:23:15.

According to the Mail on Sunday, that's exactly what Theresa May

:23:16.:23:19.

plans to do. She has written an article for them and she uses the

:23:20.:23:27.

unacceptable phrase of capitalism. Edward Heath used it about Roland

:23:28.:23:36.

many years ago. It is part of, what intrigues me about Theresa May is

:23:37.:23:41.

she is a bit of an enigma, where are her politics? The person all this is

:23:42.:23:46.

her right-hand man Nick Timothy and she was what's to get rid of him

:23:47.:23:50.

after the election. This is his kind of election. -- agenda. When it

:23:51.:23:54.

comes down to it, what she is proposing to do is publish a

:23:55.:24:00.

register which will show fatcat bosses who have been told off by

:24:01.:24:05.

their shareholders over the levels of pay. It is quite a weedy level of

:24:06.:24:11.

response but the rhetoric is very high. These part of Theresa May

:24:12.:24:19.

trying to re-establish herself after the fiasco of the election. As they

:24:20.:24:28.

have a case of one of those fatcat losses. The Observer, a mining

:24:29.:24:35.

village in Yorkshire. In particular, the impact of wrecks that. It is in

:24:36.:24:43.

County Durham. It is an ex- mining village. It is just one of these

:24:44.:24:50.

things that tells those of us who live fairly comfortable lives, what

:24:51.:24:55.

it's like at the other end of the scale, in a place where people are

:24:56.:24:59.

living without proper furniture and in a village plagued by drug dealers

:25:00.:25:05.

and so forth. It is like real-life eye, Daniel Blake. There was

:25:06.:25:12.

something in the story about how this critique of the benefit system,

:25:13.:25:17.

these are the people who get the dirty end of the stick on this. ,

:25:18.:25:24.

really suffer. It is just a reminder of what life was like for those who

:25:25.:25:33.

have been on the bad end of the... Sometimes you feel these parts the

:25:34.:25:41.

country that the rest of the country have no clue about. They don't

:25:42.:25:44.

understand the lives of different people. There is a story underneath

:25:45.:25:48.

it in the Observer which is the other side of the coin, talking

:25:49.:25:52.

about a million skilled European workers are seeing their future

:25:53.:25:55.

outside Britain. It is a study done by KPMG. A large percentage of

:25:56.:26:06.

people here with higher degrees are thinking about leaving. None of us,

:26:07.:26:13.

whether we were four or against, could envisage this before the vote

:26:14.:26:17.

happened. Inside the Sunday express, a story talking about a Visa scheme

:26:18.:26:21.

which allows foreign students to stay in the UK for an extra six

:26:22.:26:26.

months which was initially only done at four universities in the south of

:26:27.:26:30.

England and now they are rolling it out. Again, this is something we try

:26:31.:26:35.

to Flickr -- pick our way through. On one point, there is a lot of

:26:36.:26:39.

political confusion, Theresa May that was anger at are a lot of

:26:40.:26:43.

students overstaying their visas and then last week we heard a story

:26:44.:26:47.

saying that's not true and now the government is tried to encourage

:26:48.:26:50.

them to stay longer. They want the brightest and best to stay longer.

:26:51.:26:55.

There was a pilot scheme to students from Cambridge, Oxford, to stay on

:26:56.:27:01.

for an extra six months. This has caused predictive outrage in parts

:27:02.:27:05.

of the countries stop they have now announced they will extend it to

:27:06.:27:10.

northern universities as well. The Prime Minister, after the election

:27:11.:27:14.

result didn't exactly go her way, was the speculation on how long she

:27:15.:27:19.

might last? She has set a date at how much truth is there in it? What

:27:20.:27:24.

is clear from this story is that Mrs May is inviting groups of

:27:25.:27:29.

backbenchers to visit her, greeting her at the door with handmade

:27:30.:27:35.

chocolate and so forth. It is quite clear the charm affective --

:27:36.:27:41.

offensive to try and woo people to allow her to carry through the

:27:42.:27:44.

Brexit process. She is saying to them, yes, I will be gone before the

:27:45.:27:50.

next election but give me two years to get on with this job. One of the

:27:51.:27:55.

Tory backbenchers says, her philosophy seems to be, giving the

:27:56.:27:59.

dogs as stroke is better than giving them a kick. I feel slightly bad

:28:00.:28:05.

that we have not greeted you with handmade chocolates and pressed

:28:06.:28:09.

Echo. I look forward to it. Thanks very much, Paul. -- prosecco.

:31:35.:31:38.

account of himself than any Mayweather confirmed his status as a

:31:39.:31:58.

great. He refers to himself as the best ever, and he proved too much

:31:59.:32:01.

for Conor McGregor. A referee stopped the contest. A sense of

:32:02.:32:09.

hope, anticipation and excitement built throughout the day. Irish fans

:32:10.:32:20.

turned the city green. He's the underdog, if he can land one with

his left hand... It would be great. He is going to be great. Put your

:32:31.:32:45.

money where your mouth is. Conor McGregor caught Mayweather with a
