Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham was set to host French President Emmanuel Macron at Downing Street, with small boat crossings, European defense, and the economy on the agenda; the leaders also viewed the Bayeux Tapestry with the King and Queen. In Nepal, symbolic funerals were held for those feared lost in devastating floods, with more than 4,200 still missing and international aid being distributed.
London saw the launch of the UK's first self-driving taxis from Uber and Wayve, though a test revealed a safety driver had to take control after an error. In the US, jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial resumed deliberations after a fifth day without a verdict; she admits killing her children but denies murder citing postpartum psychosis. Sky News investigation into the strike on a school in Manab, Iran, during the US-Iran conflict identified 120 children killed, with a detailed account of class 4a and no response from the Pentagon.
Other news included a shooting in Minneapolis leaving two dead and three officers injured, a fatal stabbing of a British woman in Portugal, and Tiger Woods receiving a five-year driving ban after a no-contest plea. New data from Surfers Against Sewage showed sewage was spilled into England's waterways for nearly 14,000 hours during heatwaves, prompting criticism of water companies. On the Isle of Lewis, a dispute over an assistance dog banned from a cafe escalated to legal action, with the community center's future at risk.
