## Resource

President Trump has paid tribute to the US senator, Lindsey Graham, who's died aged 71 after a brief, sudden illness. Mr Trump said the Republican from South Carolina was one of the greatest people he'd ever known. Former US National Security Adviser John Bolton reflects on Mr Graham's political career and legacy. Also in the programme: a campaigner against female genital mutilation tells us about efforts to prevent a ban on the practice being overturned; and we report live on the final day of the Wimbledon tennis championships.
