has labour done enough on anti—semitism, mr corbyn? jeremy corbyn has repeatedly condemned all racism, butjewish leaders accuse him of being too soft on anti—semitic behaviour. in a statement today the labour party said: "we are committed to tackling and eradicating anti—semitism in all its forms in our party and our society. jeremy corbyn has asked labour's general secretary to make speeding up and strengthening our disciplinary procedures against anti—semitism a top priority." but in one north london council, labour activists are worried, saying they saw earlier this year how the anti—semitism row turned voters away. it made a big difference in the local elections. by all the evidence we are gathering, it seems to be the reason that barnet hasn't got a labour council, that could do a lot for the residents here. so it's already done damage, and until it is sorted out it will continue to do damage. labour has held inquiries about anti—semitism and there have been dozens of suspensions but some see peter willsman‘s case as a

he's a former labour minister and now heads up the jewish labour movement. this is the group considering taking legal action against labour. we are having a few problems connecting to ivor, so we will talk to billy bragg. as we heard from norman smith, labour has come in for a lot of criticism at this new code of conduct. it's not taking in all the widely accepted international holocaust alliance definition of anti—semitism. you get it amongst the cps and the police, so why is the cps and the police, so why is the labour party different? the abuse margaret hodge suffered is a borren. if any of those abusers are found to be part of the labour party, they should be expelled. i think the code falls into two distinct parts. those aspects of anti—semitism directed atjewish people, individuals and judaism, but there were several of the examples addressed directly towards the behaviour of the state of israel. the home affairs select commission looked up the code last year and found one of them which says, to deny the self—determination of the jewish people is

has labour done enough on anti—semitism. has labour done enough on anti-semitism. another row of anti—semitism is not making jeremy corbyn‘s tasks easier. anti—semitism is not making jeremy corbyn's tasks easier. what is your message tojewish corbyn's tasks easier. what is your message to jewish labour mps?l vetera n message to jewish labour mps?l veteran mp is facing disciplinary action for telling jeremy corbyn to his face that he was seen as anti—semitic. his face that he was seen as anti-semitic. i did confront him and told him you can only be judged on what you do, not what you say. it issances not words that are important. he was perceived as being anti—semitic and a racist. important. he was perceived as being anti-semitic and a racist. at the co re anti-semitic and a racist. at the core of this dispute is a war of words in labour's ranks. the party's ruling national executive backed by jeremy corbyn adopted a definition of anti—semitism. labour code doesn't sap it is anti—semitic to compare israel to the nazis. instead it says to resist using

voting for labour policy, all thatis labour voting for labour policy, all that is broken down now. people seem to care more about particular outcomes of brexit than tribal loyalties to their party. we talk about these great political realignments, but we are seeing in the house of commons right now that people like jacob rees—mogg on one side and chuka umunna on the labour side, they really have parties within parties, they tell them how to vote and what to say on tv and what have you. a lot is changing. it is incredibly fluid at the moment. one final march to this, jack, the times talking about this idea that the message from downing street was, back me or it's time for another general election? desperate stuff although there is some truth in it. if she had lost the vote tonight it's not impossible that we would have gone for another election to ensure that sebastian feels the same, covering politics for the last figures. journalists love general elections! to appoint! there's the story that the tory chairman brandon was agreed not to vote in crucial vote, they call it pairing w

he is upsetting, it is a low point for labour this year. he is doing what jeremy corbyn which should be doing, saying he is listening to this issue and is concerned about it. but again, he is also trying to move labour onto talking about policy. there could be another election which labour could win, and they need to have something to talk to the electorate about, apart from this horrendous anti—semitism issue. so the idea that he is talking about a universal basic income and the labour manifesto, which means everybody has a certain amount of income to start off with, it will alleviate property. just quickly to squeeze in a less final story, the mirror, palace crisis talks over silencing meghan markle's died. he gave a lengthy interview on sunday? he sat down with a reporter for nine hours and spilt out his heart about how megan had cut him off, change numbers, and wouldn't speak to him. they made a unwise remark about how princess diana would not be proud of her behaviour, which has gone down badly. mr marco keeps on speaking to the pres

labour took on a new code of contact which has upset several labour mps and also many within the jewish community. several jewish newspapers came together, criticising it. just a couple of weeks ago. and of course, dame margaret hodge, the veteran labour mp, having a stand—up row with jeremy corbyn on exactly this issue? exactly, and is on this very issue, so margaret hodge, she is another who is being investigated. so we understand now that ian austin is also being investigated. a labour source said the investigation is not about anti—semitism, it is about aggressive behaviour but the aggressive behaviour that is referred to, ian austin denies any of that actually happened. look, i was involved in... it was a heated conversation about the labour party nec's failure to adopt a standard definition on anti—semitism. but the accounts of it given out are not true. i mean, did i scream abuse that anybody? abuse at anybody? no, ididn't. it was a heated discussion, i accept that, but i did not, i didn't scream abuse at anybody. i didn't do that. that heated discussion that he is talking

i said that i thought the labour party‘s failure to adopt the... i said i thought the nec‘s decision was a disgrace. look, am i upset about anti—semitism? yes, iam. i‘m upset about that and i‘m upset as well about the leadership‘s failure. i think the refusal, really, you know, to deal with this properly. i grew up listening to my dad tell me how he‘d escaped from the holocaust, and how his mum and sisters were murdered in treblinka and that led to me joining the labour party as a teenager, determined to fight racism and the first thing i did when i became an mp 13 years ago was to organise and lead a campaign to drive out the bnp here in dudley, and i‘m really shocked, you know, that a party that has a proud tradition throughout its entire existence of fighting racism has ended up causing such huge offence and distress to thejewish community in britain and i think this could never have happened before. i‘m appalled it has happened, i‘m ashamed of the labour party. i really am. and i think, if i‘m honest, i think we‘re becomin

if you are trying to put pressure on labour mps in the labour party to back the chequers agreement, then yes, but if you are trying to put pressure on the general public, we have been round this round about them, lots of people who think it is "project them, lots of people who think it is " project fea r" last them, lots of people who think it is "project fear" last time we'll think it is this time. the fact they are not doing the drip drip may be the only time in the last couple of yea rs only time in the last couple of years that henry's financial times readers and my sunday express readers and my sunday express readers have agreed on something, what is the sense of doing it in that way. also important to say, this is what civil servants do, they come up with preparations, prepare for the worst, if you want to not sleep tonight, look at the contingency planning for a pandemic flu. it is effectively the script for a horrorfilm. flu. it is effectively the script for a horror film. and the observer has farmers in crisis, summit, over food supplies, bringing together the story about b

clearly this is an ongoing cancer in the labour party. i don't hold out any hope that in september the this thing will be finished. the jewish community is aghast, waiting for september, hoping the sorry tragedy can end. a blood sugar sensor has revolutionised the way that some type one diabetics manage their condition. it reduces the pain of regular finger condition. it reduces the pain of regularfinger prick condition. it reduces the pain of regular finger prick testing and can better control the disease. many have to pay around —— a price that is very high every month because of where they live. when theresa may met donald trump many noticed a small white disc on the back of her arm. it is technology that has revolutionised the way some people are managing their type one diabetes. it is like a plaster so you inserted with a needle at first. it is just stuck out like a plaster but it doesn't hurt. david used to measure his blood sugar levels by pricking his finger. he would do this ten or 15 times a day but with the new device it co

a lot of people in the labour movement are angry with these four mps because the labour party and the trade union movement is very pro—eu and they see it as helping jobs, the economies, and if they had said, yes, we have these strong eurosceptic things, but we could defeat the government, then why didn't they do it? ultimately, opposition is around to oppose, not in through the government plans and i have sympathy with the argument that these people were putting their convictions first over what could have been putting themselves into power. and it takes us to the dilemma that a lot of labour mps faced, isn't it, jack, if they say that remain, or a soft brexit, a lot of their constituents don't, they voted to leave. and this is what is a massive problem for every mp and there are tory mps, you don't hear about it, some of the remain brexit campaigners in the tory party support remain areas and so you see the real disconnect. people have such strong opinions on the issue thatis such strong opinions on the issue that is not in line with the areas that is not in line with the areas tha

several labour mps, some of whom are often critical ofjeremy corbyn‘s labour mps, some of whom are often critical of jeremy corbyn‘s approach to anti—semitism within the party, have criticised this and can be read it as have criticised this and can be read itasa have criticised this and can be read it as a double standard compared to others investigated for their comments criticising the leader's approach. we have seen left—wing commentators, calling out peter willsman and saying action should be taken against him and other members of the nec as well, the comedian, eddie is argued is a member of labour's ruling body has tweeted and said he was dialled in on the phone for that meeting and was both shocked at what peter willsman said at the time and surprised he was allowed to say it unchallenged. as for peter willsman himself, he hasn't said anything in public since the recording was published online. he hasn't responded to requests for interviews. but a reporterfrom he hasn't responded to requests for interviews. but a reporter from talk radio did track him down in oxford and tried

what is your message tojewish labour mps, mr corbyn? and a veteran labour mps, mr corbyn? and a veteran labourmp is labour mps, mr corbyn? and a veteran labour mp is facing disciplinary action for telling jeremy corbyn to his face that he was seen as anti—semitic. his face that he was seen as anti-semitic. sided confront him and i told him you can only be judged on what you do, not what you say, it is actions not words that are really important. he was perceived as being anti—semitic and a racist. important. he was perceived as being anti-semitic and a racist. at the core of this dispute is a war of words in labour's ranks. the party's ruling national executive backed by jeremy corbyn adopted a code of conduct that approves an internationally accepted definition of anti—semitism but exclude some specific examples which other bodies use. labour's code for incidents doesn't say it is anti—semitic to draw comparisons of contemporary israeli policy to that of the nazis. instead, it's israeli policy to that of the nazis. instead, its code tells party members to resist u

, it wouldn't have met labour's six tests for a brexit deal, so it looks like it was dead long before today. i think brussels may have pushed back. once respected think tank said brussels was likely to come by —— to come back and say no, but... it wouldn't have been a straightforward no. possibly a starting point for a deal, but i'm not sure how she can move forward after accepting these amendments. according to the i, she will give mps early summer holiday to save her job. has this been decided that the parliamentary recess would be brought forward? no, iwonder whether labour and the snp will vote for that, but you can see quite for theresa may that looks appealing to get her ministers out of parliament and crucially out of conversation with each other, so they don't plot any more attempts to undermine her personally or sabotage her policies. ican see personally or sabotage her policies. i can see why that's appealing but it makes her look even more week that she is thinking of doing this, it's like an avoidance rather than dealing with the issue head on. it's like an avoidance r

labour says its a pr stunt. theresa may takes personal control of brexit talks with the eu, as the new brexit secretary insists he hasn't been sidelined under scrutiny for paying thousands into the private bank account of an african politician, aaron banks, who donated millions of pounds to the brexit campaign. also coming up... in a ceremony of thanks, the boys rescued from caves in thailand are ordained as buddhist monks and closer to home, the british divers who rescued them are hailed as heroes at downing street night has come. and they stole our hearts at the royal wedding with their rendition of ‘stand by me', now the london—based gospel choir lands a record deal. more than 70 people have been killed by wildfires in greece. residents and tourists rushed to beaches and into the sea to avoid the flames fanned by strong winds and high temperatures. hundreds were forced to flee by boat but others found themselves trapped as the fire tore through forests and coastline near the capital athens. the worst hit

the people in the labour party want to hear is much more compassion from the top of the labour party, particularly with these revelations about people '5 men, on the nec and inflammatory comments about donald trump fanatics. i think he has been on the one hand, very sympathetic and compassionate, but is also sending out this new policy. is not to say that it out this new policy. is not to say thatitis out this new policy. is not to say that it is a distraction, but it is to say that they have other positive things to talk about other than anti—semitism. he is suggesting that universal basic income will be in the labour manifesto and it is an interesting idea and it has been trialled in different country, you don't have means testing but you have a basic income that everybody get and it is supposedly an incentive for everybody to get into work because they feel a part of society. it is quite a shrewd move to start talking about social justice agenda is when you have theresa may on who stood on the steps of downing street, who used the same language of making life better for the many

labour are facing calls from some of their own mps to strengthen their rules on anti—semitism. the waste illusion: claims that some rubbish sent abroad for recycling is just buried in landfill. a century ago, the uk's largest world war i memorial was created in the lake district. join me a little later to find out how the national trust are marking that moment with music. and coming up on the bbc news channel — francesco molinari says he can't believe that he's the new open champion. he's become the first italian to win a major. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. the met office have issued an amber heatwave alert for parts of england until friday. when it's at its hottest — between ”am in the the morning and 3pm in the afternoon. amber heat warnings are issued when temperatures are forecast to hit 30 degrees celsius during the day and 15 degrees at night for at least two consecutive days. daniela relph reports. a parched dry landscape, this is hertfordshire, but it could be pretty much anywhere in england. the only hint of green, the cricket pitches which

he needs to show the world and the labour party that labour is not an anti—racist party. he needs to ensure that the international definition of anti—semitism and all its examples are accepted and he needs to make sure that all the backlog of disciplinary cases are concluded in a transparent way. that is what he needs to do to start with. and if all those recommendations are adopted, that it is it? that is the beginning of it because clearly he needs to establish a dialogue and confidence of the jewish community. establish a dialogue and confidence of thejewish community. he needs to show that labour is an anti—racist party. thank you forjoining us this afternoon. now many of us are packing our bags for a holiday in europe — in the last summer before the uk leaves the european union. so just what impact is brexit likely to have on our love of european travel? around 18 million britons are heading to spain this summer — they‘ve been joined by our reporter adam fleming who‘s in one of its most populart resorts, benidorm. it‘s the last summer before brexit, whi

the labour mp wes streeting. the speaker of the irish parliament this week presented the uk parliament with a portrait of the first woman ever elected as an mp. constance markovitz was a sinn fein member who never took her seat at westminster, instead becoming the first female cabinet minister in the irish republic. the picture, a copy of one in dublin, is currently on show in the voice and vote exhibition in westminster hall. markievicz is a sterling role model, i think, for women, still, right across europe. that she really pioneered, she pushed for the vote for women and pushed for independence for our country. and she was a very effective minister. she was a leader in every sense of the word. for a long time, the first woman was recognised as nancy astor, who was actually the second woman elected to the house of commons. but for a long time, constance markievicz was wriiten out of british history, so of course we welcome the fact that the british parliament are finally recognising and acknowledging the very i

, god knows what has happened to labour, it has gone to another planet. 0ur labour, it has gone to another planet. our country is in crisis, it is on another planet. what you think? ijust find labour's ineptitude in this... but if this happens... a second referendum? we have already heard is theresa may say that they will not be a second referendum. it would be hard to justify one, even though bizarrely people gave it such credence when it was 52—48, that is a hung parliament, that is not the will of the people. it is a majority. but in a non—binding referendum? the worrying thing about this is that justine greening has said not even the vote in parliament will confer legitimacy on the final deal. part of this whole brexit thing about the supremacy of parliament, getting power back to whitehall, to... but you could only do this, a senior tory i was with yesterday said to me, now mrs may is using some quite ha rd me, now mrs may is using some quite hard tactics to get her team onside. if she can't even get her own party onside, the country to come together even with her plan? this is sh

we are beginning to hearfrom within the labour party. we are beginning to hear from figures within the labour party. we are beginning to hearfrom figures in the shadow cabinet beginning to express disquiet over the way this has been handled. the problem is if the party is to take a much more assertive and aggressive stance towards those making these kind of remarks, you really need jeremy corbyn to give a lead, and so far we have heard nothing from him in the la ke have heard nothing from him in the lake of the waiters to controversy. thank you, norman smith. rash in the light of the latest controversy. us officials have reportedly detected activity at a north korean factory which has in the past produced ballistic missiles. these satellite images show the site in question. the reports come amid the recent thawing in relations between president trump and north korea's leader kimjong un — after the apparent success of their summit injune. meanwhile president trump has offered to meet the leaders of iran, without any preconditions and at

labour's code tells party members to resist using nazi metaphors but adds: labour officials say this is simply turning loosely worded examples in a more robust legally enforceable code. so why won't margaret hodge except those reassurances? the jewish people have reached out to jeremy corbyn in the labour party right through the process, they've been rejected. tonight, labour mps decided to hold a vote straight after their summer break on the green to adopt the international exa m ples of green to adopt the international examples of anti—semitism word for word but their leader has been defending his party's code of conduct. what has been done is an honest attempt to make sure we do make it clear we will not tolerate anti—semitism in any form and we will allow legitimate debate on issues facing israel and palestine but it can't ever be conducted in an anti—semitic form. but it can't ever be conducted in an anti-semitic form. this is not about words, it's about trust. jeremy corbyn's critics believe he has been too slow to act on anti—semitism that many of his supporters think

has labour done enough on anti—semitism, mr corbyn? jeremy corbyn has repeatedly condemned all racism, butjewish leaders accuse him of being too soft on anti—semitic behaviour. in a statement today the labour party said: "we are committed to tackling and eradicating anti—semitism in all its forms in our party and our society. jeremy corbyn has asked labour's general secretary to make speeding up and strengthening our disciplinary procedures against anti—semitism a top priority." but in one north london council, labour activists are worried, saying they saw earlier this year how the anti—semitism row turned voters away. it made a big difference in the local elections. by all the evidence we are gathering, it seems to be the reason that barnet hasn't got a labour council, that could do a lot for the residents here. so it's already done damage, and until it is sorted out it will continue to do damage. labour has held inquiries about anti—semitism and there have been dozens of suspensions but some see peter willsman‘s case as a

but first, labour has called for the estimates to resign. the head of the public spending watchdog, the national audit office, wrote in the week, complaining she made incorrect comments about its conclusions about the benefit. on wednesday, she came to the dispatch box to apologise. i met --i mistakenly said it. in fact, be an a0 didn't mistakenly said it. in fact, be an ao didn't say it. and i want to apologise to you and the house were inadvertently misleading you. labour kept up the pressure of asking an urgent question the next day and accusing the minister of incompetence all rule breaking. she should be ashamed. the report, yesterday, the auditor general took the extra three step of pointing out to have a jihad misrepresented the report on numerous occasions. if she miss read it so badly, it brings into question her competence and judgement. she has clearly broken the ministerial code. either way, she should resign. there had been a regrettable slowing down so my interpretation of that was incorrect which is why i came to the house yes

but a former labour health secretary said money would not be enough. can i say to him that it will require massive organisation, massive organisation, radical restructuring and innovation of technology on a massive scale? that will not be achieved by one party on its own. why, therefore, does the government constantly refuse the recommendations of some noble lords and committees in this house to establish a cross—party consensus on this and take party politics out of this to the maximum extent? he is quite right about the big challenges that we face. i think it is better to look at them as opportunities. he is also right that reform has to go hand—in—hand with extra money. we've promised the extra money, we now need to see that reform and every part of the health service to the department, the nhs and others, need to drive that through. lord 0'shaughnessy. now, the conservative mp, sir christopher chope, came in for some pretty stinging criticism last month, when he shouted, "object," to the upskirting bill. his shout at the end of the day's deba

the editor has been pushing the story when the labour party was saying can we just move oi'i. party was saying can we just move on. he refused to move on and other members now saying this is leading to civil war within the labour party. lots of other comments and observations of labour mps attacking each other within the chamber and corridors. i do not see howjeremy corbyn has made such a mess of this. you should be sitting back and enjoying the turmoil on the other side of the chamber. on the times and frontpage, we tried to dig our way out of the caves, said the 12 boys from the football team who were trapped in those underground tunnels. a picture of one of them there. an extraordinary news conference we saw today. in recent weeks, i have been lack enough to be in russia and to watch foreign news channels who fight rightly loved the story and the happy ending —— lucky enough. these boys were trapped with their coach underground with water is rising around them. they told the story... what i love today was that dignity with which the young boys told the story. how they w

a showdown over anti—semitism in the labour party — jewish labour mps will urge the party to accept a tougher code of conduct also coming up — the foreign secretary, jeremy hunt, has used his first official visit abroad to warn that the uk faces the risk of a "no deal by accident". sport now and over to the bbc sports centre. good morning. we have a new open champion and for the first time it is an italian. francesco molinari is the open champion after winning at carnoutsie. he won by two shots, beating a group of four players which included justin rose and rory mcilroy. while there was a point during the day when tiger woods took the outright lead, ten years after he last won a major. but it was molinari who produced a steady round to win the open. we did have to wait to see what the others could do before picking up the claretjug. to look at the names on that trophy, you can say it's the best in history and then to be on there is incredible, for someone like me coming from italy, not really a major golfing country. it's been an incredible journey. the "most emotional" day was how

i think there are labour party. i think there are labour party. i think there are labour party members, and i think jeremy's one of them, who are very happy to address anti—semitism on the right, were very familiar with that, but they find it hard to accept there's anti—semitism on the left —— we're very. it is there, it's an ugly reality and it needs to be dealt with. let's talk about margaret hodge, who was critical of jeremy corbyn, some in the party says she needs to be disciplined. what's going on and what do you think should be done?” what's going on and what do you think should be done? i wasn't present when this incident happened, soi present when this incident happened, so i don't know what has been said. but i know the anger margaret was expressing is it reflecting being felt by many people, many labour mps —— expressing is reflecting. the jewish community has become com pletely jewish community has become completely united from liberal rabbis to her radial rabbis, uniquely coming together to condemn what's going on. ——

what is the parliamentary labour party doing? instead of sitting down in a collegiate fashion and discussing strategy for how to deal with the situation in parliament, they are attacking labour as the greatest threat to jew in attacking labour as the greatest threat tojew in this country. the trouble is nobody believes in. you are thinking, what is all this about, it's dangerous for us. founding member ofjewish boys were labour speaking to norman smith. a new drug which can treat and cure the recurring form of malaria has been approved by regulators in the united states. some 8.5 million people fall ill with this type of malaria every year. tafenoquine is the first drug to get approval for the disease in 60 years. our global health correspondent smitha mundasad reports. malaria, a disease that can cause untold misery and sometimes a disease that can strike again and again and again. that's because in vivax malaria, the most common type of malaria outside sub—saharan africa, the parasite can go to sleep in the liver and re—awa

in a statement today, the labour party said: but in one north london council, labour activists are worried, saying they saw earlier this year how the anti—semitism row turned voters away. it made a big difference in the local elections. by all the evidence we are gathering, it seems to be that could do a lot for the residents here. so it has already done damage. until it is sorted out, it will continue to do damage. labour has held inquiries about anti—semitism and there have been dozens of suspensions but some see peter willsman's case as a test forjeremy corbyn. is he prepared to personally intervene against an ally or will he stay silent and let such behaviour go unpunished? vicki young, bbc news, westminster. aid agencies are accused of being "almost complict" in sexual abuse across the sector, in a damning report by mps. the international development committee says the delivery of aid has been subverted by sexual predators — and that there's been a "culture of denial" since revelations that workers for 0xfam paid for sex while helping victims of the 2010 earthquake in haiti. cha

firstly, the labour position, you wa nt firstly, the labour position, you want a second referendum, i think, owen smith. will your party come behind at? i hope so because after what we have seen over the last couple of days, the civil war in the tory party being displayed for the whole country, it is clear where we are heading at the moment is towards i'io are heading at the moment is towards no deal, and that is what the erg around jacob rees—mogg want and it would be utterly disastrous for our economy if that is where we end up andi economy if that is where we end up and i think the only democratic and sensible route out of that is to give the people the chance to reject that no deal scenario and have another vote. andrew, you leader here this lunchtime said parliament isn't able to function at the moment because the divisions are so great, but isn't it that parliament now has to decide what kind of brexit we have? it is a complete and utter farce in this place at the moment. you have a prime minister in office but not in power, squeaking through votes through the shameful collabo

this is the unite union, the biggest affiliate union of the labour party, the biggest donor to the labour party, and this is the union themselves but the people's vote campaign, the pain for a vote for a second referendum essentially to approve whatever government the —— whatever deal the government agrees with eu. or not. exactly but this campaign have done a poll of members of the unite union which is significant because jeremy members of the unite union which is significant becausejeremy corbyn is very clear he does not back a second referendum under any circumstances. interestingly, so does the unite union and yet this poll shows that its membership disagrees with both the union and the labour leadership. there's been a lot of debate around jeremy corbyn‘s position, a suggestion that he is in a different place to the majority of his membership. that is something the people's vote campaign are very keen to highlight and i think they are using the poll to make that very point. tom barton, fascinating, we will talk again. the rail operator, govia thameslink, could be stripped of it

so if there were a general election and labour won it, i'm not surejeremy election and labour won it, i'm not sure jeremy corbyn election and labour won it, i'm not surejeremy corbyn would find these negotiations any easier than theresa may has stumped. of course, at least jeremy corbyn does believe in brexit. chuckles thank you both very much, always a pleasure to talk to you both. let's ta ke pleasure to talk to you both. let's take a look at our headline this hour. borisjohnson becomes the second senior minister to resign from theresa may's cabinet in the space of under 24 hours, saying the brexit dream is dying due to unnecessary self—doubt. his departure follows the resignation of the brexit secretary, david davis, late last night. he said the prime minister's brexit plan left britain in a weak position. the prime minister tells mps in the commons she is prepared to fight to keep herjob, if there is a vote of no confidence in her leadership. an update on the market numbers for you — here's how london's and frankfurt ended the day. police say it's "shocking and utterly appalli

labour movement, the main body of jewish supporters thejewish labour movement, the main body ofjewish supporters within the labour party, that they might actually take legal action against mr corbyn over his refusal to accept in running the international code on anti—semitism and then supporters of jeremy corbyn, likejewish voice, saying that the code is, quote, a fa ke saying that the code is, quote, a fake code and this was all in effect put up to damage mr corbyn‘s leadership. and when you get that scale of conflict, it seems very ha rd to scale of conflict, it seems very hard to see how this is going to be resolved any time soon. and you take on someone resolved any time soon. and you take on someone like dame margaret hodge at your peril, she is a hugely respected figure? i think the prospect of any disciplinary action being meted out to name margaret hodgeis being meted out to name margaret hodge is for the birds, frankly. because the political acoustics if you like of trying to discipline not just a very long—standing member of the labour party but someone who has a also

in spite of them all being labour! well, they say success has many parents and i think we should pay tribute to the liberal mp william beveridge, to the conservative health minister henry willink and to the labor health secretary nye bevan in theirfounding of the nhs. it's important to point out that over its 70 years the conservative party has been in powerfor 43 of those and the nhs has thrived under our leadership. but a conservative said priorities within the nhs needed to be looked at. i heard this morning that certain treatments and unnecessary medicines are to be ruled out. can we have a comprehensive list of those? it is not right that dandruff shampoo should be on prescription. it is not right that we should be looking at funding treatment of gaming machine addiction. can we have real look at the priorities? while we are looking for savings in the national health service, perhaps my noble friend could explain to me why it is that the national health service does not reclaim crutches, zimmerframes, moon boots e

one labour mp, alison mcgovern, spoke of the experience of the former labour health minister, ann keen, who herself had been a victim when she became pregnant as a teenager. like ann keen, she said, many of the women gave birth in the nhs. she called on theresa may to say sorry. she became unexpecdedly pregnant in 1966 when an older man she worked with forced himself on her. her family were horrified and decisions were taken and she moved away and saw a social worker. it was assumed that the baby would be adopted. she said many women gave birth in the hs. these women were made to feel ashamed of their bodies, of the pregnancies, and it's that culture of shame that was perpetrated by officialdom in one guise or another. it's a complex history, madam deputy speaker, but i would like to know how it happened. she called on theresa may by saying sorry. simply by apologising, the promised would send a message to anyone unexpectedly pregnant today that they should expect help and support and never approbation. and mostly, she would send a message to every woman in this country that our past,

backing —— labour onside. match labour's six tests it needs to get the backing —— labour onsidelj don't think we can remember what those six tests are! exactly. i think made is hoping she can get some of the labour rebels onside —— may. lots of people will say the chequers agreement doesn't look great to them either and if they don't back it they can bring down theresa may and brexit. that's intriguing, you have the paradox of the pro—brexit is you want to stop brexit —— pro brexiteers. then you have jeremy corbyn as brexit —— pro brexiteers. then you havejeremy corbyn as prime minister, leading a slightly more pro—remain party, but he himself who has traditionally been pretty and ge. he has been quite... his spokespeople, when you speak to them, there are certain elements of them, there are certain elements of the four freedoms that we would very much like to change, aspects of the single market they would like to change. and freedom of movement they are not keen on. this was one of the m essa g es are not keen on. this was one of the messages they got back, particularl

have a listen to one of those labour mps.|j simply double. have a listen to one of those labour mps. i think it is appalling. i think any viewers listening to that ordeal will say, how is that possible? how was that said ina how is that possible? how was that said in a meeting? how is possible no action been taken? if we're serious about standing up to racism and being an organising station that believes in this kind of speech cannot be ok. we have not heard directly from heaven following the release of the tape, but he wrote to the labour party when initial complaints were made. he said his behaviour fell short. he said complaints were made. he said his behaviourfell short. he said his words have not been accurately reported. it keeps this row over anti—semitism rumbling on for the labour party. it will fuel the demands forjeremy corbyn to get a grip on some of her supporters who are behind many of these remarks. it has emerged that the manchester bomber was rescued from libya by a royal navy ship three years earlier. a warning from us int

a labour mp said there was a backlash against trans people. if lgbt+ people are still frightened of holding hands in public because of the likely reaction, then we still have a lot of work to do. back in the 1980s, when many of us were not in politics, we look at the homophobia that gay men, for example, faced at that time. and i'm sure we would all think that if we were in politics at the time, we would have called that out, we would have stood up for those individuals. well, that same scenario is happening now to the trans community and we must show absolute, unwavering solidarity for those individuals. civil partnerships were introduced to accommodate those couples who were discriminated against by being unable to marry. so she should add to her list of actions the abolition of that institution of discrimination, shouldn't she? there are many reasons why people value civil partnerships. what i can reassure the honourable gentleman, because i know he's very exercised about this, is that they will not be compulsory. penny mordaunt. you're wat

under the labour party, under the labour party they would undo each of the successful pillars of operation sovereign borders that have seen children no longer drowning at sea, drowning -- in detention. we have closed those centers. and susan land and others should start to be honest with the people of longman, that the labour party is promising a policy with multiple restarts, where kids will be back in detention. that is the reality of what labor is promising. mr. speaker, the facade the labour party has put up no longer stands. the left is taking control, and it is clear in the opposition they have lost control of border protection and the people of longman get it. they know trevor is the only candidate in the election that stands for strong border protection. is an eye watering figure. how much the international space agency is worth overall but australia doesn't have one, no official government agency anyway. the government wants to tap into that and create one for the first time and hopefully creating 20,000 jobs. >> thank you, mr. president. my question is to the president. we talk a

she is now reaching out to labour and labour mps —— reaching out to labour and labour mps -- snp mps, reaching out to labour and labour mps —— snp mps, and it is hard to see how the brexiteers will ever be co mforta ble see how the brexiteers will ever be comfortable with it, and therefore i think the roads lead to a leadership contest. we are with grant shapps, we are heading for a leadership contest question not i hope not. we physically don‘t have the time to do that now. why has boris johnson gone? it was convicted with his view that he has said about the european union and our relationship going forward. ina union and our relationship going forward. in a sense he could not be true to himself and stay but i think the truth is this country needs to get a deal or if there will be no deal, we need to get there, but there‘s no time to do anything else in the meantime. theresa may has lost her brexit secretary and her foreign secretary in the last 24 hours. last year, ithought it foreign secretary in the last 24 hours. last year, i thought it would bea hours. last year, i thoug

joining me now from westminster is labour mp and brexiteerjohn mann. you campaigned with borisjohnson. are you sorry to see him go? i am not surprised. it was predictable. at some stage he would resign and the only question was when. it has happened now. no surprise whatsoever. he was a resignation a lwa ys whatsoever. he was a resignation always waiting to happen. what do you make of his argument that effectively brexit is dying, suffocated by needless self—doubt in the government? the people who seem to be celebrating, there is a little gaggle of libertarian conservatives around him and they are celebrating, because they want a no deal, they wa nt because they want a no deal, they want a cheap labour brexit with wages going down and they are to remain as who want a second referendum are celebrating as well, because they think that if it is a stand—off between a cheap labour brexit, the no deal option for a second referendum, that they might get the second referendum. i think they are living in cloud cuckoo land, but it is very informative, that t
