Enough, and with the use of Water Cannons and tear gas has worked for a time but we have seen a handful of protesters keep coming back. Former rugby star Gareth Thomas says he wants to break the stigma surrounding hiv and reveals hes tested positive. The 97 year old Second World War veteran whos taken to the skies to mark battle of britain day. England win the fifth and final ashes test against australia to level the series. And, the travel show is in amsterdam to see the restoration of one of rembrandts most famous works of art. Thats in half an hour, here on bbc news. Good evening. The former Prime Minister David Cameron says borisjohnson only backed brexit in the Eu Referendum to further his political career. In an extract from mr camerons memoirs, published today, he says mrjohnson didnt believe in brexit but thought it would help him become the darling of the conservative party. David cameron says leave supporters left the truth at home when they hit the campaign trail three years ago. Heres our Political Correspondent chris mason. These two used to be on the same side. Were going to do blue team. Do you want to go in goal or up front . Ill go here. But now borisjohnsons attempts to deliver brexit as Prime Minister come with a running commentary about his character from David Cameron. Mr cameron, who led the remain campaign, has some scores to settle with mrjohnson, the Leading Light of leave. His accusation in his memoirs, serialised in the sunday times, is stark. Borisjohnson backed brexit out of self interested opportunism. David cameron writes. The conclusion i am left with is that he risked an outcome he didnt believe in because it would help his political career. You could not accuse us of being anti european nor little englanders. Nor little englanders but mr cameron is accusing him of a loose affiliation with the truth and questionable motives for endorsing leave. Nonsense, say his supporters. Remain would have been the easier career choice, so borisjohnson led the campaign, he did so because he believes in brexit and he is committed to delivering it. From silly hats to high office, some of the biggest names in the leave Campaign Just so happen to be among the biggest names in the government now. And mr camerons book is a production line of put downs. On michael gove he says. This morning, michael gove was keen to keep up with the news. Hes accused you of being a faragist, of becoming a populist. How do you feel about that . But rather less keen to tell us what he made of it. The now home secretary had no such qualms, though. David cameron said he was most shocked at how she as a minister during the Referendum Campaign had been willing to rubbish her own government. Let me say something, i mean, i was a minister in David Camerons government and it was a privilege to serve in that government, and i enjoyed working with him, and many of my colleagues. Obviously, you know, the referendum has happened, weve all moved on and the fact of the matter is were now working to deliver that referendum mandate. That is so important. There is no point going over the past. Thank you. The Prime Minister before last may have left the stage three years ago, but the noisy publicity surrounding his book launch in a few days time means itll be him providing the soundtrack to the week ahead. And chris is here now. So some uncomfortable reading for mrjohnson this weekend. How much new information do we really get from the extracts . Its fairto really get from the extracts . Its fair to say that David Camerons reflections on borisjohnsons motivations and deciding which way to Voting Campaign in the campaign wont of a surprise to many because of the various books that have been written about the time around the referendum and the aftermath, but crucially we are hearing in his own words and what has been striking is that since David Cameron left office weve hardly heard anything from him at all. He has not done the back seat driving that some have been accused of any left the commons quickly after he stood down as Prime Minister and vanished into a rather pricey hothouse that he bought for his garden in oxfordshire to write the book. Why it matters is we are hearing it in his own words and crucially over the coming days we have the sense we will hear a lot for him this week and he has an interview on itv tomorrow night and some bbc programmes built around the book that is coming later in the week and he will be on this morning with holly and phillip, so he will be everywhere and he will dominate the conversation at the time that the conversation at the time that the time is awkward for the Prime Minister and this book could have come out of more benign times but politics is not as benign as he might have anticipated. Ready for the christmas book rush though, isnt it. How difficult or damaging isnt it. How difficult or damaging is what weve heard so far for Boris Johnson who has been busy describing himself in the papers today as the incredible hulk. Yes, trying to measure damage that politicians damage when their rivals, not that he was meant to be arrival, make these remarks, its difficult to judge because you have to price in how much is the accusation already priced in by a decent chunk of the electorate and the best comparison on this theme or the best example is theissue on this theme or the best example is the issue ofjohn prescott and the punch way back in 2001 and the perception was from some would be that he was finished and there was that he was finished and there was that quote stjohn will bejohn and there was a sense that it was priced into his character, not that it was excusable right but people might have assumed it was a kind of thing he would do. Fast forward to now the allegation from David Cameron that borisjohnson allegation from David Cameron that Boris Johnson and some allegation from David Cameron that borisjohnson and some of the leave campaign did not tell the truth, well, regular criticism of Boris Johnson, fairly or otherwise, is that he has a fairly liberal approach to the truth whether it be the bus in the Referendum Campaign 01 the bus in the Referendum Campaign or losing a job at the times in his careerfor making or losing a job at the times in his career for making up or losing a job at the times in his careerfor making up a quote, that kind of stuff, so you wonder to the extent of what that is priced in and it might not shape peoples views, because they liked and already they still will and if they didnt like and perhaps they still wont, and im guessing because weve not seen any polling to work out if theres beenin any polling to work out if theres been in effect, the one thing we can say for certain is would it have been easierfor boris say for certain is would it have been easier for Boris Johnson say for certain is would it have been easier for borisjohnson to have this weekend without the emergence of the book . The emergence of the book, i think we can say to that, yes. What will this week hold in store . Tomorrow the Prime Minister is off to luxembourg to meetjean claude juncker, the first time theyve met since borisjohnson became Prime Minister and the mood music seems to be we shouldnt expect any kind of colossal breakthrough and a world weary reporter is like me have learned that the hard way in the last few yea rs. That the hard way in the last few years. Tuesday will be a big bay, the starting of the Supreme Court about the question of suspending parliament on whether the Prime Minister acted lawfully and its quite striking when you say a sentence like that as you trot through the week, its easy to sound glib about something so significant, really. Weve got to the point in the Brexit Process where there is so much noise we are almost deaf to the significance of it. The Prime Minister has been accused of not telling the truth by his predecessor but one and he is not personally in court, but his whole approach to governing and suspending the commons is being challenged in the highest court in london on tuesday which is quite extraordinary. 0n court in london on tuesday which is quite extraordinary. On wednesday the European Parliament will talk about brexit and the key thing is we still dont know what will happen. Brexit is due to happen injust still dont know what will happen. Brexit is due to happen in just over six weeks and we dont know whether it will happen, if it does, how it will happen, who will be the Prime Minister if it happens and then we will get a general election. All of those big fundamental questions i cannot answer, Boris Johnson those big fundamental questions i cannot answer, borisjohnson khan, and no one else can. And if you think you know the answer, you are kidding yourself. Thank you, chris mason. The liberal democrats say they will cancel brexit altogether if they form the next government. In a change of policy, approved today at their conference in bournemouth, the lib dems now say they would revoke brexit, without having a referendum first. The partys leader, jo swinson, says voters must be give the chance to stop what she called brexit chaos. 0ur Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake is in bournemouth his reports contains some flash photography. Pro europe and proud, the lib dems are clear they want to stop brexit. So far, its been all about another referendum. All of those in favour of the motion, please raise your speakers cards. But the party has now voted overwhelmingly in favour of revoking article 50 to pull the plug on brexit if it wins a general election. The policy is very clear. If the liberal democrats at the next election win a majority if people put into government as a majority government the stop brexit party then stopping brexit is exactly what people will get. Yes, we will revoke article 50. Its an easy sell to most members here who see stopping brexit as their mission. But it didnt pass without some descent. Senior figures deny the policy is at odds with the partys ethos. You are the liberal democrats. Is it not anti democratic to overturn the result of a referendum without putting that question to the people again . It will be no surprise to people if, having elected us in a majority government, that we then deliver on that policy. Until then of course, because weve not yet got a general election campaign, we will continue to campaign for a peoples vote. Lifes not bad for the lib demsjust now. Record membership, signs from opinion polls and the recent european elections that their anti brexit message is winning them support. And yet another mp coming on board. The former conservative sam gyimah is the latest to jump ship. His defection last night delighted delegates. But some here are worried that welcoming former tory and labour mps with such open arms will weaken the liberal democrats identity. And then what . Do you scrape it . Cancelling brexit without another referendum would only be possible for the lib dems if they won a general election. Unlikely, but that wont stop them doing their best to build on their recent success. Jonathan blake, bbc news, bournemouth. And well find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrows front pages at 10 30 and 11 30 this evening in the papers. Our guests joining me tonight are the broadcaster Lynn Faulds Wood and the political commentator giles kenningham. The eu has warned of a real threat to security in the middle east after yesterdays drone attacks on two major saudi oilfacilities. Earlier today, the foreign secretary, dominic raab, condemned the incident as a reckless attempt to damage Regional Security and disrupt global oil supplies. The houthis the rebel group the saudis have been fighing in yemen say they carried out the bombings. But the us secretary of state, mike pompeo, has blamed the houthis backers, iran a claim angrily rejected by officials in tehran. Nina nanji reports. An increasingly bitter war of words between iran and the United States over who is to blame for the attacks on the heart of saudi arabias economy. The saudis say half of their Oil Production has been knocked out after drone strikes on two oilfacilities. Houthi rebels in yemen say they were behind the attacks. But the us secretary of state dismissed this, saying there was no evidence the drones came from yemen. In a tweet, he said that tehran is behind nearly 100 attacks on saudi arabia, while irans president rouhani and foreign minister zarif pretend to engage in diplomacy. Iran immediately hit back, scathing of trump administrations methods. Foreign media reports say the attacks could have a Significant Impact on world oil prices. The strikes hit the abqaiq and khurais Oil Processing plants, run by state owned aramco one of the Worlds Biggest Oil companies. The smoke visible from space, caught by a nasa satellite. Khurais produces around 1 of the worlds oil, and abqaiq is capable of processing 7 of global supply. Even a brief or partial disruption could affect the company and the oil supply given their size. Nina nanji, bbc news. Earlier, the independent oil analyst Gaurav Sharma told the bbc the market is concerned about the saudi response. Lets be perfectly clear, we will have a bit of carnage in short positions, those who are betting that the oil price will fall when the market picks up the volume in asia on monday. There will be a jump of at least three or 5 but it depends on where the saudis go with this and if they build the americans with with them. If the saudis predictably attack positions in yemen and stick to it, thats fairly predictable and it might not have an effect on the value, but above and beyond that, attacks on positions on iran, you could be looking at least a 5or iran, you could be looking at least a 5 or 10jump iran, you could be looking at least a 5 or 10 jump in the oil price, so a 5 or 10 jump in the oil price, so the key thing is, what is the saudi response going to be like because its such a high profile attack going by 15 years of covering the market, i dont think they will let it go unanswered. They are claiming they have production down by 7. 5 Million Barrels and going by the market survey, the saudis produced about 9. 7 million daily, so literally more than half of their stated output from last months survey has been taken off line and they are saying they can service their clients and the asian markets by the stock reserves and there have been murmurings on the wire that the americans might respond by releasing some of their Strategic Petroleum reserves to ease the market tension, but come to think of it they think they will get the facilities up and running soon and on average it takes between one and three months to get these processing facilities up when they are down for maintenance, so it would be a surprise to see the saudis get the infrastructure running in the short time they said they would. The headlines on bbc news. David cameron accuses Boris Johnson of only backing leave in order to further his own political career. The liberal democrats pledge to cancel brexit if they come to power at the next general election. The foreign secretary condemns the attacks on saudi oil sites saying theyre a reckless attempt to disrupt global supplies and damage Regional Security. Time for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. Were going to start at gleneagles where europe have won the solheim cup. It all ended on the 18th green, where wildcard pick Suzann Pettersen holed an eight foot putt to win the trophy. Michael redford reports. The roar of a champion. This was the moment team europe snatched the solheim cup back from the jaws of defeat. A moment that nobody saw coming. A show of fight, fea rlessness coming. A show of fight, fearlessness and four and a half points for the usa in the afternoon meant they had one hand on the trophy at gleneagles. Europe now had to win theirfinal three trophy at gleneagles. Europe now had to win their final three matches, a task surely too hard. Maybe not. Wins for Anna Nordqvist and bronte law meant it came down to the 18 while wild card Suzann Pettersen stood, the golfer who had not played for over 18 months because of the burst of her first child. She had to win the final hole against marina alex and she needed something special. She found it. A chip that made the unlikeliest of victories seem made the unlikeliest of victories seem possible. The final day, the final match, the final shot and neither side could watch. From mum to matchwinner. This was Suzann Pettersens day. This was team europes date, and the solheim cup is theirs. Michael redford, bbc news. Unbelievable. To hole the winning putt, we hired the cheer when she heard bronte had one, and we cannot believe it, to be honest. You couldnt write that ending, could you . Sunshine, great weather, the crowds been amazing and it was a great match. The americans played really well but it all comes down to one pot and we got it this time. Away from gleneagles, england have won the fifth and final ashes test at the oval to level the series at 2 2. England were dismissed in their second innings early on the fourth day. Leaving australia chasing a target of 399. Despite matthew wades second century of the series, england completed a 135 run victory, with jack leach and stuart broad each taking four wickets. Our sports correspondentjoe wilson was watching. 0ne red ball and 11 batsmen dressed in white, englands planned for sunday ran Something Like this. Exactly like this. 0ne down harris. The second to fall, warner. Broad was bristling. Now for some subtlety. Leach lured labuschagne forward and in a split second he was out, stumped, a high skilled dismissal. Thank you. Next. This ground is where the ashes traditionally concludes. All the greats have batted here, and now steve smith would play his final innings of the summer. It could last minutes, hours. Days . Bowl it somewhere where smith can hit it but put a fielder there. Ben stokes grabbed the catch and it felt like the match. Just 23 for smith today, but there was one nice surprise still waiting. Applause he was applauded off the field. What could englands captain do . Well, bowl. Mitchell marsh fell tojoe root but matthew wade was defying england. Hot afternoon, temperature rising. His contest with jofra archer was suddenly frozen in time. Anyone blinking . No. On 117, wade fell, not to pace, but to guile, to root. Bairstows stumping. The final moment was also the captains roots catch for the match. The ashes remain in australias hands but this series ends level and englands long summer ends with another smile. Joe wilson, bbc news, the oval. To the premier league then, where watford fought back from two goals down at half time to draw 2 2 at home to arsenal. Quite some start for Quique Sanchez flores in his first match since being reappointed watford manager. Pierre Emerick Aubameyang scored twice in the first half to put the visitors in front, but they really unravelled after the break. Tom cleverly taking advantage of some incredibly sloppy play by the gunners. That made it 2 1 before Roberto Pereyra rolled in a late penalty to help watford take only their second point of the season. Elsewhere in the premier league, two goals from Callum Wilson helped bournemouth to a 3 1 victory over everton. A victory that catapaults them up to eighth in the table. Thats all the sport for now. Plenty more from me throughout the evening. 11 year old british skateboarder, sky brown, has achieved her best competition finish of the year, by winning bronze at the park world skateboarding championships in sao paulo, brazil. Here she is in action. The result means shes virtually assured of qualifying for next years tokyo 0lympics. And that would make her britains youngest ever summer 0lympian. We can speak via webcam to james hope gill from skateboard gb, whos in sao paulo. She looks very impressive even to my untrained eye. When did you first come to your attention . We have known about sky for a number of yea rs known about sky for a number of years and she started skateboarding quite young, but the skateboarding in the uk has been aware of herfor four or five years. Shes very prolific on instagram and its hard to miss her if you are into skateboarding, so weve known for awhile that shes very special. What it is about her . Raw talent or incredible commitment to the training . Theres not really anything is like training with skateboarding, they would call it practice because its a lifestyle sport and it is your life, and she skateboards for fun and we dont put pressure on her in term of giving her a training regime and our attitude is for her to go out and have fun and when you go to tournaments, have fun and that is what she does and shes very, very good skateboarding and she has fun. Shes only 11. How many other girls 01 shes only 11. How many other girls or children is she inspiring . shes only 11. How many other girls or children is she inspiring . A huge amount. Anecdotally when she came across to the National Championships and we announced the gpt in april a lot of skating shops were telling us and skate parks that a lot of girls we re and skate parks that a lot of girls were inspired by them and they were trying skateboarding for the first time. And she is very clear around her mission, if you like, even at the tender age of 11, that she wants to inspire girls and wants to tell girls that you can achieve anything you want if you put your mind to it, and it doesnt matter how young you are. We are looking at some pictures i think of herfamily are. We are looking at some pictures i think of her family and they must be incredibly dedicated to her skateboarding career as well then, because they find themselves in brazil. Yes, they are, absolutely. Its a skateboarding family and the families from cornwall and that father was someone he went over to japan and because its a lifestyle it becomes part of the family, so they are pretty dedicated and they area they are pretty dedicated and they are a great family. Very well grounded and they are looking out for sky and making sure that if she wa nts to for sky and making sure that if she wants to skateboard, she can skateboard and if it turns out she doesnt want to skateboard, that is fine and she will do something else. How likely is it that she will make it to the tokyo 0lympics how likely is it that she will make it to the Tokyo Olympics and, even better get a medal . A yellow absolutely. We are no you build to show she can get to the podium, coming third in the World Championships it shows there is potential she can get a medal in the 0lympics. Potential she can get a medal in the olympics. The way the qualification process works, and we are confident she will qualify, shes just finished season one and has another coming up but the number of points she has achieved through coming third on the other results she has had, it will be very hard for her not to be in that top 20 that qualify to the olympic games. We are very confident that she will be on the top five or six, at worst, really. Incredible, at the age of 11. We shall keep an eye out for her. James hope gill, thanks for talking to us. A pleasure. The former Welsh Rugby International Gareth Thomas has revealed hes hiv positive. Thomas, who once captained the british and irish lions, came out as gay at the end of his playing career. Daniel davies reports. Dawn on the first day of living publicly with hiv. Gareth thomas embarked on the ultra endurance Ironman Wales triathlon today after revealing a medical condition hed tried to keep secret. Ive got hiv, and its ok, like. Thats what i want to learn more than anything. This is how he first came to prominence, breaking records on the rugby field, known to fans as alfie. He came out as gay at the end of his playing career. Now, in a bbc documentary, he says he wants to break the stigma of hiv. One of my fears is that all of a sudden who i was prior to people knowing i have hiv might be forgotten. Cheering in fact, on social media and on the streets of tenby today, the support for him was obvious. Its hugely significant for somebody with such a high profile to talk about living with hiv. Medical advances means now that somebody on effective treatment can have a normal lifespan, and really importantly, they cant transmit the virus to their partners. But the stigma associated with hiv hasnt shifted at all. Shouts of encouragement 45 year old thomas is one of an estimated 100,000 people in the uk living with hiv. He hopes this gruelling day will prove they need not be limited by the virus. Daniel davies, bbc news, tenby. Police in hong kong have used water canon and tear gas against protesters throwing petrol bombs and bricks. The violence broke out after thousands of pro democracy demonstrators marched in defiance of a police ban. The protests have intensified despite the scrapping of a controversial bill which could have seen hong kong citizens being extradited to Mainland China as nick beake reports. How much longer can this go on . Violence the authorities just cant extinguish. Hardcore pro democracy activists are not backing down, in what is a chinese city, even setting alight the polices latest weapon to try to wash away this protest movement. The police have decided enough is enough. Theyre making use of water cannon as well as the tear gas. Its worked for a time, but weve just seen that this hard core of protesters just keep on coming back. Because this is now the sunday afternoon past time for the radical youth of hong kong. Some say its gone too far. Hitting the economy and frightening off tourists. Why not film you . Because our identity is our possession. Can ijust ask you, why do you think violence is still the answer . Inaudible earlier, tens of thousands had marched peacefully, defying the threat of arrest. And demanding an investigation into alleged Police Brutality and demanding more freedoms for hong kong. God save the queen. Others, in much smaller numbers, called on britain to stand up for its former colony. But china has warned both the uk and the us not to meddle. The hardcore crowds finally left when these powerful jets were unleashed. The water dyed blue to stain activists who can later be arrested. A 99th day of unrest in this battle for the streets and for the future of this city. Nick beake, bbc news, hong kong. A Second World War veteran took to the skies in a spitfire this afternoon, to mark battle of britain day, the 15th of september, when the Royal Air Force turned the tide against the german luftwaffe in 1940. George dunn, whos 97, undertook the flight to thank people whove raised thousands of pounds for the Raf Benevolent Fund. Kathryn stanczyszyn reports. This is how it feels to be back in a spitfire after seven decades. 97 year old george dunn is no stranger to the skies, joining the raf aged 20. A lot of the battle of britain took place over sussex and kent, so, i did see a lot of it. And i suppose, being young, and looking up there and seeing the aircraft flying around, dogfights with the germans, and i thought, well, i think ill have some of that. He carried out 44 missions during the Second World War for bomber command. When the war ended, he flew spitfires. You couldnt have any instruction on them in those days, because there wasnt a dual aircraft. So, it was a question of getting in and making the best of it. He has since helped the Raf Benevolent Fund raise tens of thousands of pounds by telling his story. This is a thank you. It was still exhilarating, to be there, flying it, knowing it was yours marvellous
