Team coming into the world cup. To come out of a group where nobody gave them hope, they lost 6 0 in the opening game to germany. What was so impressive about that was the togetherness they showed. I also like the fact that the girl that wore the hijab, for the growth of the game, i think for muslim women and young girls to see a female play in a major tournament, on such a big stage, i think that visibility is crucial moving forward. So here they are taking their place in the Knockout Stage where theyll play france. Thatll be the final last 16 match. It all starts on saturday with spain against switzerland. Holders the usa meet sweden on sunday. While european champions england face nigeria, one of the now three teams from africa whove qualified from the groups. That is on monday. Seven time super bowl champion tom brady has become the latest High Profile Sports star to get involved with an English Football Club. Lebronjames has a small share in liverpool, jj watt is a burnley shareholder, and now brady has become a minority owner at a second tier team. Here is the deal. I am officially coming on board at Birmingham City Football Club. Birminghams new owners say theyve entered into a partnership with the nfl legend, who will become the chair of an Advisory Board, offering up his expertise on nutrition and opening up possible new commercial deals. Brady retired from playing earlier this year, while birmingham finished 17th in the championship and havent been in the Premier League since 2011. Well, theres another world cup going on right now. Apart from the one involving both teams in new zealand. And there was a significant win for england Over Australia in the Netball Tournament in cape town. Both had qualified for the semifinals before their meeting, but englands 56 55 victory is their first over the world number ones in this competition. Jamaicas win over defending champions new zealand means they finish top of their group and will face australia in the last four. Englands opponents will be new zealand unless south africa beat uganda by a massive margin. That is currently not happening, although they are ten a head. 21 11. That next to another change to the Rugby League World cup. It was due to held in france in 2025, but after they withdrew for financial reasons, the Southern Hemisphere will now host the tournament in 2026. The last edition of the competition was held in the uk in 2022, the same year france was awarded hosting rights for the next one after initial plans for it to be held in North America for the first time were scrapped. The ashes test series has also been reinstated, with englands Men And Women To Tour Australia in 2025. The reality is, these competitions are significant in their logistics and organisation, and to have a truncated one as it is now is always something that would have been difficult for france. It is a stretch, 12 months less than france had for a nation. We have a proposal for 2025 from a country, but we thought, in gratitude to the success was to move it to 2026 in a different format as well. So we had to make that decision as a board fought not only this world cup but the world cup is going forward. Much more reaction the world cup is going forward. Much more reaction to the world cup is going forward. Much more reaction to that the world cup is going forward. Much more reaction to that womens world cup. 0n the website, you can find out.

Five people have been arrested after greenpeace protesters scaled rishi sunak� s North Yorkshire constituency home. They were demonstrating at the announcement of new north sea oil and gas licences. Greenpeace said campaigners had unfurled Oil Black Fabric on one side of the house near northallerton. Mr sunak and his family are on holiday in california.

The protesters were are there for some hours. The North Yorkshire police were called around 8am, and it wasnt until one oclock that the protesters came down. As you said, five people in total have been arrested, or have been charged with causing criminal damage and public nuisance, a third man arrested on suspicion of causing a public nuisance. They remain in custody. The Prime Minister is not there. He is on holiday in california with his family. There are some reports at the protest first door first of all, before they went on the roof, to say that this was peaceful. But, it is over. It is extraordinary that they managed to get access to the roof of the Prime Ministers constituency home. One tory mp pointed that out, saying, this doesnt seem a very serious. This seems like a serious security breach, that the protesters could do this. They are protesting because of the governments announcement that they are going to issue new Oil And Gas Drilling Licences for the north sea. That is a decision defended by the deputy Prime Minister, 0liver dowden, who is running things on the Prime Minister is a way, who said in an interview today that people were sick of these stupid stunts. What sick of these stupid stunts. What these peeple sick of these stupid stunts. What these people are sick of these stupid stunts. What these people are saying, sick of these stupid stunts.

It is a very controversial decision. The labour party have said it is a huge mistake and blows a hole in the governments environmental credentials, campaigners like greenpeace eight is the last thing the government should be doing now, which is taking fossil fuels out of the north sea. So, it is a very live political issue, and what we have seen today is one prominent Pressure Group responding with their own direct action. Thank ou ve with their own direct action. Thank you very much with their own direct action. Thank you very much. Some with their own direct action. Thank you very much. Some breaking with their own direct action. Thank you very much. Some Breaking News regarding our main story. The Bank Of England raising the cost of borrowing Interest Rates to. Rishi sunak� s target now looks within reach. The Chancellor Of The Exchequer coricjeremy hunt, says it is working. Underneath that decision, says it is working. Underneath that decision, there says it is working. Underneath that decision, there is says it is working. Underneath that decision, there is a says it is working. Underneath that decision, there is a forecastl that decision, there is a forecast that decision, there is a forecast that says that this time next year, inflation will be 2. 8 , and we will have avoided recession. And what are the Bank Of Englands governor is saying, is that we have a plan bringing down inflation solidly, robustly, and consistently. So, the plan is working. What we have to do, as a government, is make sure we stick to that plan, not to veer around like a shopping trolley. We stick to that so that families and businesses can start to feel the benefits of that plan working. What benefits of that plan working. What many people benefits of that plan working. What many people are benefits of that plan working. What many people are starting to feel in the uk is the pinch to their mortgages, of course, rising Interest Rates mean that higher Mortgage Repayments for many homeowners across the country. With that in mind, we head to oui our head of statistics who is in the newsroom. On is in the newsroom. Trackers . Is there an end in sight to these rises . Tell me about those tracking mortgages. That is what many people are looking at. That is what they are looking at. That is what they are worrying about. The are looking at. That is what they are worrying about. Are looking at. That is what they are worrying about. The rates that we have seen. Are worrying about. The rates that we have seen, the are worrying about. The rates that we have seen, the rises are worrying about. The rates that we have seen, the rises over are worrying about. The rates that we have seen, the rises over the i we have seen, the rises over the last year, they have seen them facing mid 2000 Interest Rates plus 2020 house prices. For them, the news is hopefully stabilising. We hope that based on todays predictions, there are not too many rises to go. They arent going to drop back down. 5 is likely to be here to stay. There is one word of warning on these predictions, they are very uncertain. If we wind back the clock to the start ofjuly, things were looking a lot less hopeful, and the markets are betting Interest Rates would go as high as 6. 5 , plus,. That is the base rate of the banks. If we go back to may, we would see that the markets were betting we would never reach 5 . So, todays story is flattening out around 5. 25, but that is todays story, today is another day. For people following the Tracker Rates and the standard variable rates. There is only about one fifth of people with mortgages in the uk. Most are on fixed rates. Why are these going down . When the bank rate is rising . These going down . When the bank rate is risin . , these going down . When the bank rate is risinu . ,. These going down . When the bank rate is risin . ,. ,. , is rising . They are going in opposite is rising . They are going in opposite directions. Is rising . They are going in opposite directions. You i is rising . They are going in i opposite directions. You could is rising . They are going in opposite directions. You could be forgiven for being confused. The reason for the difference is that fixed rate mortgages, and the officer to get, they dontjust depend on todays Interest Rates, they depend on the rates expected to happen to them over the five years that you are getting the loan. When those expectations about the future become more pessimistic, the rates go become more pessimistic, the rates 9 up, become more pessimistic, the rates go up, and when they go down, things get a bit back. The banks are middlemen. They go into the market and passing gusts you with a little bit extra for themselves. You can see the ghost of their borrowing in the chart. When things topped out at the chart. When things topped out at the start ofjuly, you you can see the start ofjuly, you you can see the cost for a bank reach the levels we were seeing around the time of the mini budget last year, but since then, as things have become more optimistic, the rates will flatten out, people have hope, we have seen that they have been coming down, passing them on, little by little, under the consumer. The passing them on, little by little, under the consumer. Passing them on, little by little, under the consumer. The banks have been getting under the consumer. The banks have been getting those under the consumer. The banks have been getting those predictions under the consumer. The banks have j been getting those predictions wrong on the rising prices, havent they . We can see why the banks Interest Rates forecasts have been in the news, the next chart shows, and what people hope the banks do, is they raise Interest Rates to stand down on inflation. Their decisions they make are guided by what they think is going to happen to inflation. Lets see what happened to it. Lets add the projections of the bank have been making to guide their decisions. Before the war, they were a bit optimistic. We all probably were. You saw it coming . In the second half of 2022, they probably over called the peak. And then, they were being a bit pessimistic. Going into this year, et that the projections are closer. You would have to zoom quite a lot way in to see this, they are still probably being a bit optimistic about the inflation going down. This will drive their decision, it begs the question, if they had different models, if they had called the size of the uk problem earlier, where they have made different decisions . That is to do with a bangs forecasting. It is partly an assessment of how we deal with the world which has so much uncertainty, pandemics, walls, one like we see near the last few years. fight pandemics, walls, one like we see near the last few years.

Its hard to find a more recognisable rockstar than freddie mercury. Queen fans are in for a treat this week, as theyll have the chance to look at the singers private record collection, his artwork and flamboyant stage costumes. The exhibition is on display in london ahead of an auction of freddies personal possessions, that have until now been looked after by one of his closest friends. David sillito has been to take a look. Yes, thats a Giant Moustache outside sotheby� s sale room. And inside, this, the Famous Graffitied Green Door that led to freddies garden, freddies record collection, freddies kitchen. Freddies costumes. Theres even freddies moustache comb. Mama. And for fans of classics, like Bohemian Rhapsody, there are on display little clues to how he created his songs. What am i looking at here . Well, were looking at here, this is the earliest surviving draft for Bohemian Rhapsody. Theres the title. Yes, yes. But then, if you look underneath, there is a cancelled earlier title, where he had written mongolian rhapsody. So Bohemian Rhapsody was originally mongolian rhapsody. So it seems, yeah. But now the partys over. And even those who knew freddie well, there are surprises, as we discovered with one regular visitor to freddies home back in the 80s Songwriter tim rice. Do you know what you were doing on the 14th ofjune, 1987 . No. Let me go. Ive got something here for you. Freddie, you see, was very organised. And there is a book with a record of every dinner party. Oh, wow. Good heavens. So you were having cold tomato soup, lamb in puff pastry, new potatoes, carrots, salad. With a rather nice white chateauneuf du pape. And a red volnay. Wow. Just four of us round that magnificent table. Wow. I mean, i rememberthe evening. He was very civilised. And, if you didnt know he was a mega rock star, you might not know that. I mean, he was the opposite a lot of the time from the image he had on stage. So there it is, a free exhibition of a lifetime of memories that will, in a few weeks, be sold off in six freddie sales. This is a once only moment. They are expecting quite a few visitors. David sillito, bbc news, sotheby� s. Wonderful. Before we go, there is plenty more on our website about the stories. We have a little bit of good news, Climate Change is apparently seeing a species of migratory butterflies stay in the uk over the winter instead of returning to europe and africa. This is of course be red admiral butterfly, and the charity, butterfly count, reported a fourfold increase in sightings of this butterfly, continuing what they call a long term trend. That and all the other stories you want to read about on the website. Stay weather is here on the website. Stay weather is here on bbc news. Stay with us here on bbc news. Hello. The weather is not looking too bad over the next couple of days, generally sunshine and showers knocking around. However, as we head into saturday, its going to turn very wet, particularly so across northern ireland, england and wales. And bear in mind, parts of the south of the uk, even though were only three days into the new month, have already had a third of the average rainfall. Theres more on the way, as i say. Today is an ok day, though. Sunny spells and passing showers. The showers probably most frequent across parts of the midlands running into eastern england. Quite a few showers for northern ireland, but theyll tend to be quite light and i suspect the showers become a little bit less widespread for wales and south west england. So more in the way of dry weather here increasingly through the afternoon. So some of you will stay dry with sunny spells coming through from time to time overnight. A few more showers will keep going, particularly around coastal areas and especially across northeast england, north and east scotland. Temperatures about 11 to 1a degrees overnight. And then tomorrow, yeah, its another showery kind of day. However, as we head into the afternoon, the showers will want to concentrate in one area especially, and thats across eastern england. Thats because weve got one of these Convergence Zones where the winds bash together. It will concentrate the showers here. But if youre away from that, for example, across wales, western england, parts of northern ireland, west scotland, it should be largely dry tomorrow afternoon with some fairly decent sunshine coming through, but temperatures still a bit below par for the time of year. Its through friday night and into the weekend that weve got our next batch of really wet weather to come through. Also very windy, too. Now the heavy rain will initially start off in northern ireland. Quite gusty winds here for a time too, before it works in across england and wales, especially as we go through saturday. And with gusts of wind around 50 or 60mph across parts of wales, 40 50mph or so for parts of southern england, could bring some localised disruption. Then weve got the heavy rain too factor in as well. Now it wont be raining everywhere all the time. Across scotland itll be ok. Sunny spells here a few passing showers, but the unsettled theme does continue, im afraid, through sunday and into the early part of next week as well. However, after that, it looks like well see our first area of High Pressure building in for some seven weeks, and come thursday, might only last a day or two, it looks like well see something drier, sunnier and warmer. Temperatures in the warmest spots could reach the high 20s or even low 30s. Live from london. This is bbc news. The Bank Of England raises Interest Rates to 5. 25 , the highest for 15 years, in an attempt to curb inflation.
