London weather is looking promising over the weekend, with sunshine and cooler nights to ensure some sleep before another heatwave rolls in.

The latest Met Office forecast brings good news for those on their summer holidays in the UK – unless you’re stuck in a traffic jam on the motorway.

Bruce Springsteen fans heading to Wembley Stadium for The Boss tonight should not be disappointed as temperatures will hit 23C with dry weather forecast.

Here is what the weather has in store today.

Weather on Saturday, July 27

Luckily for the summer holidays, the weather is mostly playing ball, with forecast showing warm and sunshine with some showers in the north and west of UK.

Now is the time to make the most of the slightly fresher weather as temperatures are set to rise from Sunday and into next week when a heatwave is possible in the south of England.

David Hayter, a deputy chief meteorologist at the Met Office, said: ‘As we go through the weekend, the jet stream will weaken to the west of the UK generating an area of high pressure that will slowly move in across the UK.

‘High pressure means the air is sinking from higher in the atmosphere and that brings drier, settled and sunnier weather.

‘Temperatures will rise too, becoming widely above average. We could see maxima of 27°C in the south and 25°C in the northeast by Sunday.



Latest London news

To get the latest news from the capital visit Metro.co.uk’s London news hub.

‘There’s a bit more in the way of patchy cloud in Northern Ireland, south and west Scotland and the northern isles, so temperatures will be lower there.’

Daytime temperatures in London range from 20C to 23C on Saturday with only thin and patchy cloud.

Bruce Springsteen’s world tour at Wembley means tens of thousands will be flocking to the stadium for the final London gig, with doors opening at 5pm.

If you’re planning to arrive early for the queue to snatch a good spot, you should be fine without an umbrella as there is less than 5% chance of rain.

And the Met Office has more good news – after a tough summer for hay fever sufferers, pollen levels are set to be ‘low’ over the weekend.

Venezuela accused of grounding Latin American ex-leaders' flight

Venezuela accused of grounding Latin American ex-leaders' flight


Panama has accused Venezuela of blocking a flight carrying former Latin American leaders to observe Venezuela’s presidential election on Sunday.

Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino said on social media that Venezuela had denied the plane permission to take off as long as the former leaders were aboard. The Venezuelan government has rejected the allegations.

Among those on the plane were the ex-presidents of Mexico, Panama, Costa Rica and Bolivia – all critics of the current Venezuelan government who said they were hoping for an opposition victory.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who is seeking a third consecutive term, has said he will win “by hook or by crook”.

“The aircraft was denied permission to take off from Tocumen as long as they remain on board,” Mr Mulino wrote on X, referring to Panama City’s airport.

Vicente Fox, Mexico’s former president, posted a video on social media from the airport, in which he said: “Nicolas Maduro has caused all Copa flights heading to Caracas and Venezuela to be suspended.”

“A bad sign for Sunday,” he said separately, in a radio interview. “We were removed from the plane with blackmail and pressure from Venezuela.”

Others on board included Miguel Ángel Rodríguez of Costa Rica, Jorge Quiroga of Bolivia and Marta Lucía Ramírez, former vice-president of Colombia.

Panamanian Foreign Minister Javier Martínez-Acha said that Venezuela had “blocked the airspace of its country to Copa Airlines” for “several hours” – a claim denied by Venezuelan authorities.

Last year, Mr Maduro agreed to allow international observers to be present in this election, resulting in a temporary easing of US sanctions.

However last week, Venezuela issued a decree restricting travel across the country’s border from Friday, a move it said was intended to protect the election.

But there have been a string of similar crackdowns, prompting concern that Venezuela is blocking access to international observers.

The chair of the National Electoral Council, government ally Elvis Amoroso, uninvited EU officials who had been due to watch the vote.

And Colombian officials, Spanish MPs and Chilean senators all reported being denied entry at Caracas Airport.

The Spanish People’s Party President Alberto Núñez Feijóo said the Venezuelan government “does not want the international community to have eyes and ears in Venezuela this weekend”.

Mr Maduro’s PSUV party has ruled for 25 years, but opposition activists hope to unseat the president on Sunday.

The main opposition parties have united behind one candidate, Edmundo González.

Most opinion polls suggest he has an overwhelming lead over Mr Maduro but he fears the vote will not be free and fair and that the government may not concede defeat.

Who lit the flame at the Paris 2024 Olympics?


THE Paris Olympics is officially underway after a stunning opening ceremony on the River Seine.

For the first time ever, the ceremony took place outside of a stadium.

It has been estimated that was over 600,000 people in attendance to watch the highly-anticipated spectacle.

And instead of everyone flocking to a stadium, attendees got to watch the opening ceremony happen on the Seine River in Paris.

Organisers revealed that it took place when dusk was due to fall at the time of the event so that spectators could watch it during the day and night.

Who lit the Olympic flame in Paris?

The Olympic flame has been lit by two French superstars – judoka Teddy Riner and sprint legend Marie-Jose Perec.

Both stars have three Olympic gold medals to their names.

Perec, 56, sealed 400m gold in Barcelona 1992 and the 400m/ 200m double in Atlanta in 1996.

While Riner, 35, won +100kg judo gold in the 2012 and 2016 Games – plus mixed team gold in Tokyo five years later.

The pair lit a cauldron which sparked a 30m hot air balloon to descend into the Parisian sky to signify the Games had begun.

GP shares real reason your appointment feels rushed and it’s eye-opening

GP shares real reason your appointment feels rushed and it’s eye-opening


A GP has taken to TikTok to address a common concern among patients – the feeling of rushed appointments. Doctor Shireen, known as @doctorshireen on the platform, explained why consultations may feel hurried and shed light on the unseen work that happens behind the scenes.

In her video, she expressed her wish to spend more time with patients and urged people not to vent their frustrations at medical staff. She provided a glimpse into the myriad tasks doctors must complete in a limited timeframe, offering a new perspective on the issue – and it’s safe to say there’s a lot that they have to do in such a short space of time which we may not think about.

She said: “I’m going to explain to you guys why when you’ve got a 10-minute appointment with your GP, you only have about two to three minutes with them and sometimes you might feel like you’re being rushed. We are given 10 minutes per patient. There are no gaps in between, we have no added time to write our notes. It’s 10 minutes per patient.”

Discussing what happens in these 10 minutes, she stresses that every second counts, and if you are dealing with an older patient who, for example, moves more slowly, it all takes up more time. She explained: “This 10 minutes includes us opening the patient’s notes, reading through their history, getting up to date with everything, reading the most recent hospital letters, buzzing the patient in, the patient walking into the room, taking the coat off, sitting down, saying hello. This is all eating into the 10 minutes.

“Then we have a little chat, the patient tells us what the problem is. We then want to examine them, get them up on the couch, take their clothes off. And a lot of our patients are elderly, or they’re children, so all of this extra stuff takes a lot of time, then take their clothes off and examine then, wait for them to get dressed again, to come back round to sit with us.”

After the GP has done an investigation and looked at your notes, they then need to explain to you what the plan of action is. She says: “We then explain the examination findings, we explain what we think it is, we come up with a plan and a lot of the time we are sending the patient for tests or investigation.

“So explaining what they are, filling out their relevant referral forms for those investigations or refer them to specialists and writing a letter for them then answering any questions that the patient might have – and often there’s more than one issue. This is why GPs say only one problem.”

Sometimes people often will bring up more than one issue during their time – but as the GP says – this delays things and eats up more time. She revealed: “At the end after they might drop something like ‘oh by the way, Doctor, I’ve got blood in my poo’ and it’s really hard to say leave this for another day. That’s something urgent that very likely would need a two-week wait urgent referral.

“But all of this is in 10 minutes and then we have to write up the notes of everything that we’ve done and seen. So you might feel your GP is only seeing you for two minutes, but the entire consultation is 10 minutes.”

Directing her thoughts to those who complain about this issue and take their anger out on the staff, she kindly explained: “If you’ve got an issue with that, which I think most people do, the issue is with the government and what they’re giving the powers are giving us as GPs. They’re telling us you’ve got 10-minute appointments. if I could have 15 or 20 minutes I would be so grateful, all GPs would.”

She concluded: “We want to have that rapport with our patients we want to provide good care. We don’t want patients to feel unheard or rushed. We want to have that time, but if you don’t, please don’t take out on the GP it’s a restriction we are under.”

In the comments, many people still criticised the GP however. One said: “10mins is very unfair, we wait for days and weeks for an appointment then get brushed off with only 10mins, I want to make the most of that appointment that I’ve waited weeks for.”

In response, the GP said: “I completely understand (and agree). I just wanted to show people what a GP is expected to do in those ten mins.”

Another added: “Wow! We see our preop patients for 30min. Doesn’t include email, referral etc. 10min is impossible for consultation! Once the patient opens their mouth, 10min is not enough.”

Dad of Ron Goldman demands $117million from OJ’s estate for wrongful death

Dad of Ron Goldman demands 7million from OJ’s estate for wrongful death

The father of Ron Goldman is suing OJ Simpson’s Las Vegas estate for $117 million for the wrongful death of his son.

Simpson was ultimately acquitted in 1994 after he was charged with the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Goldman. Now, Fred Goldman, Ron Goldman’s father, is trying to collect on a decades-old civil lawsuit he won against Simpson. The former football star who became the infamous defendant died earlier this year.

Goldman’s father won a civil lawsuit against Simpson in 1997, after which Simpson was ordered to pay the elder Goldman $33 million. However, laws protecting Simpson’s pension from his NFL career prevented the payout.

Goldman is trying again, this time in Nevada. He asked to have his claim “domesticated in Nevada to become a valid creditor claim against a Nevada estate.” When he renewed the claim, he asked for $57,997,858 from Simpson’s estate. The new lawsuit includes interest accrued through 2024, according to Fox 5 Las Vegas.

During a 2021 civil hearing, Simpson counter-sued for relief from the judgement, but a jury denied his motion. At that time, the judge also ruled that the claim would continue to accrue interest of $26,402 per day until it was paid out to Goldman.

O.J. Simpson sits during a break on the second day of an evidentiary hearing in Clark County District Court in Las Vegas.

Fred Goldman, the father of Ron Goldman, is once again trying to collect on a 1997 wrongful death lawsuit he won against Simpson for the death of his son by filing a creditor claim against Simpson’s Las Vegas estate

“I affirm that the amount of the claim, $117,041,675.27 through July 25, 2024, with interest accruing thereafter at the daily rate of $26,402.3630, or the alternative claim amount as explained above, $73,148,948.71 through July 25, 2024, with interest accruing at the daily rate thereafter of $16,638.73, is justly due,” Goldman wrote in his claim. “I also affirm that all payments have been credited and there are no offsets known to the affiant.”

The next hearing concerning Simpson’s estate is scheduled for August 30.

“The only thing I have to say is that today is just a further reminder of how long we have missed my son, how long he’s been gone, and the only thing that is important today are the victims,” Goldman said after Simpson’s death was announced. “That’s it.”

Goldman told the Las Vegas Review-Journal he was dedicated to making Simpson pay for his son’s death, even after his death.

“He murdered my son!” Goldman told the paper. “He never paid a penny, not one single penny.”

Goldman said Simpson’s property in Nevada may be the last chance his family has to collect on the wrongful death lawsuit from 1997.

“[Simpson] died without penance. He did not want to give a dime, a nickel, to Fred [Goldman], never, anything, never,” an attorney representing Goldman said after Simpson died.

Simpson’s longtime attorney, Malcolm LaVergne, is the executor the former NFL star’s estate, and said he will “deal with” Goldman’s claim “in accordance with Nevada law,” according to the paper.

‘Papa Smurf’ and flaming pianos – strangest moments of Paris Olympics opening ceremony



The Olympic Games will get under way on Saturday morning following Friday night’s opening ceremony in Paris.

Among the raindrops that fell on the athletes and dignitaries, there were dancers and performers on the boulevards, River Seine and, at times, perched on the side of buildings. Here, Telegraph Sport relives some of the strangest moments from the night.

The Smurf

A giant cloche is raised to reveal a fruit salad topped by a near-naked man covered in blue paint and sporting a bright orange beard and wearing a fruit headdress and sash. Looking like some kind of deranged Smurf, he then begins to sing. According to BBC commentator Hazel Irvine, the man, singer-songwriter Philippe Katerine, is meant to be portraying Greek god Dionysus. It is an image that will remain seared into the memories of all who saw it 

A piano on fire

Singer Juliette Armanet and pianist Sofiane Pamart’s water-borne performance of John Lennon’s Imagine – a song with the line ‘imagine there’s no countries’ sung after every nation in the world has sailed past – is completely overshadowed by Pamart’s piano being set on fire for no apparent reason

Mixing traditional Egyptian songs and Arabic poetry with improvised rock, free jazz, and noise, their first album, ‘Aykathani Malakon’, was recorded in a traditional house in the village of Saqi Reshmaya, and is out on Mais Um Discos.
