welcome to bbc news. to lorry drivers have been charged after a crash on the m1 yesterday which left eight people dead and ball with serious injuries. six men and two women were killed when a minibus they were in collided with a lorry durings near milton keynes. joining me now in the studio is our correspondent, andy moore. a few more details about the crash, it happened at 315 in the morning. i minibus with 12 people on board. the minibus with 12 people on board. the minibus had come from the nottingham area. some of those on board were visiting from india. eight people killed, as you say, four seriously injured and to lorry drivers at the time were arrested by the police. now we have had confirmation that

they have been charged. the details of those charges, ryszard masierak, who is 31, he is from evesham, he is charged with a couple of causing death by dangerous driving, four cou nts death by dangerous driving, four counts of causing serious injury by dangerous driving. he has also been charged with causing death by careless driving whilst over the prescribed limit, that is effectively drink—driving. he will be appearing before magistrates in high wycombe tomorrow. the other driver is david wagstaff who is 53 of stoke—on—trent, he is charged with those eight counts of causing death by traders striving, four cou nts death by traders striving, four counts causing serious injury by dangerous driving. he will appear before magistrates in milton keynes tomorrow. we've had an update on the condition of those four people who we re condition of those four people who were injured. they are still in hospital, they are still in serious condition. we heard yesterday from the police that one of them was a

five—year—old girl who was fighting for her life. also a man and a woman who is according to the police were fighting for their lives. thank you. labour has announced a significant shift in its policy on brexit —— arguing that britain should continue to accept the rules of the single market and the customs union during the transition period after it leaves the eu. writing in the observer, the shadow brexit secretary, sir keir starmer also suggests the uk could negotiate a permanent relationship with the single market, and remain in a form of customs union. earlier, our political correspondent jonathan blake gave us this update. what keir starmer is saying here is exactly what labour will do if they were in power with regards to the transitional period after the uk leaves the eu at the end of march 2019 and a date as yet unspecified further in future. he's saying that labour would keep the uk within the customs union, the trading zone that sets eu—wide import tariffs during tha transitional period,

and also keep the uk within the single market which of course allows freedom of movement of people, goods, services and money. that's the difference. it is a clear difference between what the government is aiming to do and that is to take the uk out of the single market and out of the customs union on day one, as soon as the neogotiations end and at the end of march in 2019. so it's the clearest picture yet really that we have had from labour on what their plan for brexit is, but there are lots of questions. how long does this transitional period last? keir starmer has come up with a quite clever phrase saying it is as short as possible, but as long as necessary. very much keeping his options open there. as for the endgame, what our future relationship with the european union will look like after this transitional period, there is much less detail there. though he does leave open the option for staying in the customs union and retaining some of the benefits of the single market as well. and specifically on this transition period, people who would favour what we might call a harder brexit will say, if we stay during this period,

there are certain things we will have to accept, that real pro—brexiteers will not be happy with. absolutely, if you stay in the single market, then you accept freedom of movement so the controls on immigration that many people want will not come in until much further in the future. you have to accept the jurisdiction of the european court of justice, which a lot of people again may not be happy with. and also you have to accept that we will have to continue to pay our bill to the european union as effectively, although not quite, a member state as we're in this transitional period. so particularly i think a lot of labour voters who voted leave in the eu referendum might be scratching their heads this morning and thinking, hang on, it sounds like staying in by the back door, but then again it will be music to the ears of those who favour a so—called softer brexit and in the heart of hearts would actually like us to stay in. jonathan blake are speaking to me a

little earlier. the victims of the grenfell tower tragedy will be remembered with a minute's silence at the notting hill carnival. security for the event has also been reviewed in the wake of the barcelona terror attack. simonjones reports. # it's like an invasion...# the carnival is getting under way. more than1 million people are expected to flock to the streets of west london over the next two days. but amid the revelry, there will be time to reflect on the grenfell tower disaster. the ruins of the building still dominate this community. we have survivors coming in to release some doves, it shows that there is peace and healing for the survivors. it also shows the piece that will cover carnival itself. posters and banners are being made to remember those who died. police will make sure people keep a respectful distance from the tower. the carnival overall will be a huge security operation with steel barriers and concrete blocks installed.

given the events in barcelona last week, we have reviewed our plans and security arrangements for the carnival. we believe that they are proportionate and robust and will be highly effective at thwarting any attempts of anything that could compromise a safe and secure carnival. more than 600 people have been arrested in a crackdown on crime ahead of the carnival. weapons have been seized and officers have kits to test for acid. police say they are determined that people will be able to enjoy the carnival safely, an event that is being seen as a chance to help a community heal. our correspondent chi chi izundu is in notting hill now. a day of mixed feelings? indeed, it

isa a day of mixed feelings? indeed, it is a day of mixed feelings. grenfell tower looms right in the heart of the carnival procession. local residents and the police are both making a point to make sure that victims and those affected are being remembered. there is going to be a renewed peace arrived where people have left tributes and also there is going to be an area where people can turn down the music and walk in remembrance of people part of the gravel tributes. police and locals are planning on releasing some dogs to remember those who are remembered living grenfell tower blaze. —— release some dogs. —— doves. living grenfell tower blaze. —— release some dogs. -- doves. a huge parade, a great amount of colour and sound. indeed, the music is

literally just turned sound. indeed, the music is literallyjust turned up a notch. as you can see, there are number of people already started to take part in the procession will stop take pa rt in the procession will stop take part in the broadcast! exactly. over a million people are the expected to attend over the next three days. todayis attend over the next three days. today is children's day. we should see lots of fluids of children taking part and also take part where they will bejudged. taking part and also take part where they will be judged. hopefully be procession will be lots of fun and we should have... ok, thank you very much indeed. a rather exuberant crowd there. a 31—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murdering a young boy in wythenshawe in greater manchester. police were called to a report of a incidentjust after midnight, and discovered the body of the youngster when they entered the property. officers also learned that a man and a woman had left the address in beaford road to go to hospital.

the woman is being treated for serious injuries in hospital while the man is being questioned in custody. severe flooding is now the main concern of officials in texas after tropical storm harvey battered the coast. it has left buildings badly damaged and forced people from their homes. hundreds of thousands of residents are without power and two deaths have been confirmed in rockport area and houston. houston hobby airport has closed due to standing water on the airfield, thatis to standing water on the airfield, that is according to a spokesperson. not one of the bigger airports but it does handle domestic and international service for commercial airlines. houston hobby airport closed due to standing water on the airfield. let's get the latest. sarah corker reports. first came the 130 mile an hour winds. now torrential rains are expected to inundate south texas for days. the national hurricane centre has

warned people to prepare for life—threatening flooding. parts of the city of galveston are already underwater and the flooding could get much worse, with 30 inches of rain forecast. all the streets going down that side are completely flooded. we saw somebody‘s car floating earlier. it's bad out here, guys. hurricane harvey made landfall on friday as a category four hurricane. it's now been downgraded, but left behind a trail of destruction. this is rockport, homes have been flattened and some people are feared to be trapped. tens of thousands have now fled the area. our primary concern remains dramatic flooding. the state and various agencies remain very active in the search and rescue process and that will be one of the foremost tasks that we undertake in the coming days.

but those rescue efforts are being hampered by strong winds and severed power lines. more than a quarter of a million people are without electricity. and while harvey may have lost strength and it moved inland, it is forecast to linger over south texas and more damage is expected from heavy rain still to come. sarah corker, bbc news. cbs news reporter weijiajiang is in the costal city of corpus christi. we're here in corpus christi, the city is pretty much in the dark because those hurricane force winds knocked down so many power lines, in fact, you can see the pier behind me was snapped into pieces by the same winds. but the second part of this is really the rain and that is going to make the rescue efforts, the clean—up efforts, the rebuilding efforts so much more difficult in the hardest—hit areas. about 30 miles from where we are, rockport, texas, which is where harvey came ashore. we were there all day today and i can tell you it is difficult

to look at this town that looks like a town that once was, that sort ofjust has the remains there all strewn about, all over. i mean, here in corpus christi, there is debris and palm trees, light posts, a lot in the street, right? but there you see completely levelled buildings, whether they are homes, buildings and all sorts of material too, even brick buildings were totally ripped apart. and so people who decided to stay there and not evacuate, we were talking with them, we were watching them, and they were all still ina state of shock almost, that this was their town because they did not recognise it. so, as they are trying to clean up, they're worried that the system could whip back around to them. but right now the focus is shifting at least for tonight to houston in that area because they are dealing with so much catastrophic flooding. we spoke to on hurricane risk expert

who said texans could see up to a yea r‘s who said texans could see up to a year's worth of rain in the space of just a few days. we are at the stage where harvey has been downgraded to a tropical storm so the wind risk has been mitigated. the winds that we saw on june has been mitigated. the winds that we saw onjune 30 mph, no longer exist. but we are the stage now where did the most dangerous system thatis where did the most dangerous system that is going to stall and produce quite a bit of rain, up to potentially a year's worth of rain just ina potentially a year's worth of rain just in a couple of days over the texas coastline. what can be done to mitigate against that? you get warnings in advance, what will of been done in the area and what will people be thinking about now as the thoughts turn to rain? we learn a lot of things from every individual storm but occurs. harvey strengthened over very moist gulf of mexico, picked up a lot of tropical moisture and now i think the focus of attention and the public consciousness not towards the wind risk from some of the storms but

also the water, both from the storm surge and future events. when people are trying to manage risk, clearly moving people to safety is one big issue and there have been this evacuation orders. yes, the problem is sometimes people do not heed those evacuation orders and we had to make sure people do that. there's a lack of public perception because it has been so long since taxes or the us has been impacted by such severe storm. —— texas. we have to remind people of the danger in these sort of events, show that in real time. you talk about the learning curve, many people who are not specialists, they think harry kane, they think hurricane katrina which was many years ago now. what lessons we re was many years ago now. what lessons were learned from its website that which will have been put into play here? yes, in terms of thinking again when you see the warnings coming out and being as explicit as possible about the danger that is out there in the strongest possible

terms about talking about you are hearing the national hurricane centre say uninhabitable for weeks or potentially months at a time. some of these communities could be devastated by this event and making sure we are clear as possible about the risks that are out there. tom speaking to me earlier. the headlines on bbc news: two lorry drivers are charged with dangerous driving offences — after the m1 crash in which eight people were killed. shadow brexit secretary, keir starmer says britain should remain in the single market for a transitional period after leaving the eu, to avoid the economy falling off a "cliff edge". ceremony to remember the victims of grenfell — as the notting hill carnival is formally opened. time for sport now. we canjoin nick with news of a big fight.

did it live up to the hype? it went further than a lot of critics thought. he stopped mcgregor in the tenth round of one of the richest bouts in boxing history. mayweather took the win in the tenth round when the referee stopped the fight, it was the american 50th st professional victory. macgregor gave a better account of himself and his critics expected. the irishman's height and reach in the ring was really noticeable in the first couple of rounds which he won on points. but mayweather‘s defensive tactics gave him all the time he needed to tire mcgregor out. and in the tenth round, the american had mcgregor on the ropes. the man who calls himself tbe, the best ever, goes back into retirement with an umblemished record. and despite all the trash talking before this fight and all the bad language used, afterwards both men shook hands and put on a united front. let's hear what they said to the world's media.

it's the first time murray has withdrawn from a grand slam for more than four years. murray was striking the ball well in his practice session but the limp from wimbledon was visible and there was a certain intensity and the missing from the practice session the reasons which became apparent. murray has made the right decision, there's little point in him playing here in the 80% fit. more important thing to the best possible shape for the start of 2018 and particularly for that australian open because when he said, he still has the ability to win more grand slam titles. a decision on his future could be made in the next couple of days. he has already consulted medical professionals widely. surgery was not discussed but i imagine it has not yet been ruled out and the big question everyone is

eve ryo ne out and the big question everyone is everyone is asking is will we see money again this season? if rest is the best solution, then it will be better if he disappeared from public view. manager antonio conte feels chelsea have proved to themselves that they are ready to challenge for the premier league title again. the champions play everton in the 1:30 kick off this afternoon at stamford bridge. chelsea's season has started with a shock defeat to burnley and a win over tottenham. later on liverpool play arsenal who have confirmed alexis sanchez will be available for selection. klopp believes devising a specific plan to nullify the chilean, is futile. we defend, we do not follow him over the pitch, that is how it always was warmly played against him. if you have too much constraint on him, 100%... like i said, well but, i

that the eight missing people were caught in the back path of the val bondasca, hit by a landslide. to be clear, a landslide like this travels at a speed of around 250 kilometres an hour. bondo is close to the italian border in the graubunden region of switzerland. it is known to be at risk of landslides when water overflows from the high alpine lakes. and on friday, as had been feared, a second smaller landslide, a river of boulders. diggers brought in for the initial clean—up were swept away. and this was once one of the area's main roads. swiss police say in places the mud and rock is tens of metres deep and geologists warn the mountain still possesses a threat to the communities living below.
