but jack is very much one for taking himself on flying even with us. he just wants to get on with hisjob. at least he is able to spend time poolside with his girlfriend lois toulson, who is diving from the higher ten metre board at her second olympic games. lois is doing the platform ten metres as well, so you - see her up there and l think oh, you know... she hasjust been bonkers- from being young, she just goes for it. the first thought was a double - olympian, then for them to be there together because the kind of, the romance started in rio, . so for them to be there as a couple is really— nice for them both. i am jack's number one fan. it's just like jack taking six penalties. how we bow out at football finals, jack only has two seconds per dive and that's it, bang. he is on the move! jack and lois�*s family... cheering. up and down the land, these scenes have been repeated whatever time of day or night it may be. in keeping with the way of doing things over the last 18 months, i caught up with others feeling similar emotions from home. joe fr

the us has declined the request, and the un may also be reluctant to get involved. ithinkthe un is- thoroughly sick of haiti. they had a 13—year peacekeeping force there that got in a lot - of trouble in a lot of ways. i the last thing being the cholera i epidemic which the peacekeeping forces brought into haiti. so, i think they don't really. want to get entangled again. i think most outside forces don't |want to get militarily entangled| again in haiti if they can avoid it. adding to the uncertainty is the political situation. there's no working parliament, two men are claiming to be the prime minister, and a third of the senate has just nominated another man to lead as interim president. courtney bembridge, bbc news. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news... the islamist militant group al shabab says it carried out a car bombing in somalia which eyewitnesses say killed at least five people. a vehicle laden with explosives rammed into a police convoy at a busy intersection in the capital mogadishu. the blast targeted the city's police chi

i would say space is critical to all of us. two - space is critical to all of us. two days ago virgin orbit launched from an x 747 and it dropped off satellites around the earth which are critical for protecting the earth and making sure the earth is a better place. making sure we can monitor degradation of rainforests, check on climate change, making sure... anyway, there are numerous things including making sure you and i can talk on a programme like this. and as far as the ordinary person who could never dream of going to space, if you go back to the 1920s people were saying exactly the same thing about air travel. but now not everyone can afford to fly on a plane but a lot of people can. so i think it takes entrepreneurs and innovators to innovate and reach for the skies and in time that technology becomes available to enormous amounts of people. tt you enormous amounts of people. if you manaue to enormous amounts of people. if you manage to make _ enormous amounts of people. if you manage to make it _ enormous amounts of people. if you manage to make it into _

don't forget to use our hashtag. i would love to read out some of your comments to get a real sense of what you think about this issue. and later on i will be talking in the next hour at about ten past ten with a nightclub owner. so they are saying that they think there needs to be extra support to make up the shortfall but i would love to hear from you on this today. the nhs has been given the green light to roll out a booster vaccine programme this autumn. the extra dose will be given to the over—50s and anyone eligible for a flu jab. flu numbers are expected to be higher than normal this year, meaning extra protection against covid is likely to be needed to prevent too many hospital admisisons. now we are alive to the mansion house where we expect the governor of the bank of england to begin his speech. as the government announces plans to grow investment in the uk. can i underline your recognition of the memory of roger gifford and his important role he played. there the memory of roger gifford and his importan

stay with us on bbc news. still to come: as the world races to achieve net zero, we take a look at what's being described as the most powerful tidal turbine in the world. the number of daily coronavirus cases in the uk has risen again for the first time in a week. the latest government figures show there were just over 27,731; new cases in the latest 24—hour period — though that number is still down on the same time last week. and 91 deaths were recorded in the last 2a hours. stephen reicher, a professor of social psychology at the university of st andrews, explains why people's behaviour at this point in time is important. if we were to all relax, if we were to believe it's all over and that infections don't matter and increase our contacts back to the level they were pre—pandemic, then it's pretty clear and pretty obvious that actually, we would be in deep trouble. so we need to be positive, we need to be optimistic, we need to enjoy the outdoors in the summer — but at the same time, we mustn't be co

us, why are they coming? tea and treats in the city centre. sweet moments for afghans who can afford them. the kind of life many young afghans here, men and women, want to live. growing insecurity already threatens it. we are hurrying, just coming to the restaurant, coming to a cafe, meeting our friends, just go home. the taliban say this is a western lifestyle. maybe they say we are acting like europeans or american people. but i think it's not true. we have the right to choose our life. a lot is being knocked out of afghan lives. at this popular bowling alley, we hear notjust worry about the taliban. the government is failing them too, even in promoting sports like this. munir ahmad assafi is a national champion. translation: fewer people are coming here now. - before we used to gather about a0 people, we would divide into teams and hold competitions, but that doesn't happen any more. the changes over the past 20 years in afghanistan have brought new measures of freedom to many living in kabul. it's a life

it's good to have you with us. why has the region seen this sharp increase that it didn't see perhaps in earlier waves? i think there is a mixture of reasons, one is the delta variant is twice as infectious as the original strain that came from wuhan so that's made a lot of difference. there is also an element of complacency because for instance in australia we haven't had any significant transmission for close to a year and that was mainly in melbourne so people are closer together than they were last winter and winter is the time when it really spreads and it is currently winter here, so it is not a surprise we have had outbreaks. the outbreak in sydney is a bit bigger than we would have expected, 250 cases or thereabouts today which by world standards is still very low, but much concern here because we still don't have enough of the population vaccinated.— enough of the population vaccinated. �* ., ., vaccinated. and on that point do ou vaccinated. and on that point do you think _ vaccinated. and on that poi
