Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Counter-terrorism police have taken over the investigation into the murder of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe, after a 28-year-old man was rearrested on suspicion of terrorism offences. The Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, told the Commons that the suspect was not known to the Prevent programme and that she would review security guidance for former MPs and those in public life, referencing the murders of Jo Cox and Sir David Amis. Meanwhile, major incidents have been declared due to wildfires in North Wales and Derbyshire, with around 50 people evacuated near Conway, and in Spain, at least 13 people have died in the Almería province, including several British nationals, as firefighters continue to battle blazes across southern Europe.
Experts estimate that more than 2,700 excess deaths in England and Wales during May and June were linked to recent heatwaves, with vulnerable people urged to take precautions. Other news includes three related deaths in a County Antrim home, 12 arrests over an alleged right-wing terror threat to an Islamic event in Suffolk, and the rollout of a free Meningitis B vaccine for teenagers. An inquest into the death of Gareth Evans found that gambling addiction played a major part, with his family and a charity calling for a ban on gambling advertising. A fire at a Bangkok bar killed at least 27 people, and a man was seriously injured after being tossed by a bison in Yellowstone National Park. Tributes were paid to actor Sam Neill, who has died at 78, and conductor Dalia Stasevska discussed her new album of Ukrainian classical music ahead of opening the BBC Proms.
