this is bbc news. the headlines at 10pm: victory for the yes campaign in the republic of ireland — as voters reject strict abortion laws in a landmark referendum. today is an historic day for ireland. a quiet revolution has taken place and today is a great act of democracy. getting to know you — the leaders of north and south korea meet in the demilitarised border area between the two countries. and real madrid claim the champions league title with a 3—1win over liverpool. good evening and welcome to bbc news. ireland has voted overwhelmingly in favour of liberalising the country's strict anti—abortion laws in

a landmark referendum. two—thirds of voters supported the calls for change. ireland's prime minister, leo varadkar, has called it a "quiet revolution" for his country — and his government plans changes to the law to allow terminations for all women in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. nuala mcgovern is in dublin and sent us this update. you're very welcome to dublin castle. this is where they announced in the past hour the results of a historic referendum. this referendum was all about repealing or retaining the eighth amendment. language that was put into the constitution back in 1983 that gave the same rights to the unborn to that of the mother, and so restricted abortion rights severely. making it unconstitutional as well as illegal. that has changed today. let's watch as

it was declared that the yes vote had won. majority of votes in favour of the proposal 706,349. cheering resounding. a landslide. a historic moment. just some of the words being said about that. here's the prime minister. his name is leo vradakar and he has spoken over the past hour as well. today is a historic day for ireland. a quiet revolution has taken place and today is a great act of democracy. 100 years since women gained the right to vote, today we as a people have spoken and we said we trust women and respect women to make their own decisions and their own choices. for me it's also a day when we say no more. no more to doctors telling their patients that there is nothing that can be done for them

in their own country. and no more lonelyjourneys across the irish sea. and no mre isolation as the burden of shame is gone. when we went to the polls yesterday many people voted yes with enthusiasm and pride. but also many others voted yes in sorrowful acceptance with heavy hearts. the x marked on the ballot paper represented much more than individual votes. in 1983, 841,000 people voted to insert the eighth amendment to our constitution. in 2018,1.4 million voted to remove it. in almost every county and constituency, men and women, all social classes and almost all age groups, we are not a divided country. the result is resounding

and it gives us as the government the mandate we need now to bring forward that as soon as possible and secure their passage. we voted for the 200,000 irish women who have travelled to britain since 1983 to end their pregnancies. for the couples who shared their heartbreaking stories of returning home from liverpool and other english cities with tiny coffins. for the young and not so young women who spoke the truth and for those stories that still have not been heard. for all the latest on that result, just go to our website. there you'll find analysis and all the latest on the results. and we'll find out how this story — and many others — are covered in tomorrow's front pages at 10:30 and 11:30pm this evening in the papers. our guests joining me tonight are the journalist and broadcaster, penny smith, and the women's editor at the telegraph, claire cohen. real madrid have won

the champions league in kiev, beating liverpool 3—1 in the final. the premier league side lost their top scorer, mohammed salah, to injury in the first half, before real eventually went on to win — making history as the first team to win three champions league titles in a row. in a moment, we'll talk to katy austin at anfield but first to hugh woozencroft in kiev. all that way, all that difficulty getting tpf only to end in disappointment. -- getting to ukraine. for all those that were here, although that was behind them and only one thing mattered, could liverpool when there are 60 european cup? it wasn't to be. they leave the 0lympic cup? it wasn't to be. they leave the olympic stadium here in heartbreak. the first champions league final 11 yea rs the first champions league final 11 years started quite well. that was until they lost their talisman,

mohamed salah. 45 goals in all competitions this season. he looks to go off in tears with a shoulder injury after a heavy challenge from the real madrid captain. it was goalless at half time but a calamitous error from the liverpool keeper allowed benzema to steal a lead from madrid. very fortunate. that leaves did not last long. sally 0mani reacting first. just 80 minutes later. rail‘s first goal was ridiculous, and the second was sublime. are they all with one of the greatest goals ever in the champions league final. butjust minutes after his introduction. he was elated. the good and the bad all counts. the young german lost sight of gareth bale's shot from distance light on, and that gave madrid a 3—1 win. a great moment for gareth bale

who wins his fourth champions league since moving to madrid five years ago. they make history underneath their manager, is down, because they have now won a third consecutive champions league final. but unprecedented. they extend their lead for the most win —— most one european cups. liverpool are really disappointed. you can clock heartbroken after that 3—1 defeat. thank you. katie austen has spent the evening with fans at anfield. just what was the reaction there? there is huge disappointment here tonight. so much hope riding on this game, even though liverpool were never really favourites. there was a party atmosphere across this city, lots of red shirts, red scarves, red flags everywhere. at anfield, 30,000 fa ns flags everywhere. at anfield, 30,000 fans gathered to watch the game of —— on the big screen. you would have

got the game was being played here such was the excitement and enthusiasm at the beginning. but how quickly the atmosphere changed, after real madrid's first goal. the noise, the singing faded to silence. 0nly noise, the singing faded to silence. only to be replaced by the cheers when liverpool equalised. after that, shock at gareth bale's wonder goal and then sheer shock at the third is liverpool conceded. although liverpool fans we spoke to had travelled from far and wide, we spoke to some front ethics, birmingham, scotland, from abroad. they ended up, a lot of them, leading with ten minutes still to go. huge disappointment for fancy had been here from ours, building up for the match. a victory parade planned through the streets of liverpool tomorrow, and open bus tour with a celebration expected. we are hoping that will continue but there will be no victory parade on merseyside tomorrow. iq boats. --

thank you both. south korea's president moonjae—in has met the north korean leader kim jong—un today — for more talks aimed at resurrecting the planned summit with donald trump. it's the second meeting between the two leaders — in the demilitarised zone that divides the two countries. a white house team is departing for singapore to prepare for the summit — if it takes place onjune 12th. let's look at some of the recent diplomacy around north korea. injuly last year north korea test fired a long—range missile which landed in the sea ofjapan. the next month, north korea threatened to attack the us pacific territory of guam. soon after china announced it would be implementing un sanctions against north korea — placing extra pressure on the regime. at the start of this year, a thaw in tensions meant a north korean olympic team attended the winter games in the south. in march, president trump announced a meeting was being planned with kim jong—un. the next month, kimjong—un held talks for the first time with south korean president moon jae—in. then on thursday, president trump abruptly announced he was pulling out of the planned

talks in singapore. and today, the north and south korean presidents met for a second time a little earlier, i spoke to bruce klingner who previously worked as the cia's deputy division chief for korea. there was some very insulting and threatening language in the four different statements by north korea, although usually within the norm of their behaviour. more importantly was a statement by the first vice foreign minister when he very clearly articulated what is really been long—standing north korean conditions for any kind of constraints on its nuclear weapons programme, and also a very different view of their terms for denuclearization from what the white house understanding was. the white house was quite surprised and was one of the factors for canceling the summit and now suggesting we are back on the summit. what does it tell you about the real understanding or lack up what does it tell you about the real

understanding or lack of between the united states and north korea? long—time korea watchers certainly understood the conditions or when they say denuclearization and they don't comply with un resolution requirements where they abandon their missile programmes. they term it as part of the global arms control and as a member of the nuclear weapons states they will go down to zero when the other members of the nuclear states go down to zero. quite a different view from the us and un are demanding. a fire has broken out at germany's largest theme park. witnesses report seeing flames of to 15 metres and thick plumes of smoke rising into the air from the europa amusement park in rust, which is near the french border. some tsb customers are still having problems making online payments five weeks after the bank first reported problems.

the problems started when the bank switched its it systems. a number of current account customers and some business clients are unable to fully access their accounts online or via the mobile app. the bank has also admitted to the bbc that there has been a rise in fraud incidents. donald trump has called for sweeping changes to laws that can see the children of illegal immigrants into the united states being separated from their families. on twitter, the president appeared to call for the democrats to help him to make the changes — while also recommitting himself to building a wall to keep migrants out of the us. but critics say that president trump himself originally the adults are kept in detention and

children will have to be moved out. because he has introduced, and told the department of to introduce, a zero tolerance policy on every found illegally crossing the border, it means all families will potentially be prosecuted. the argument is that those families will ultimately be is better parts. but it seems to be a change in approach from president trump, according to his critics. yes, i think you have to look at that week in full. the point is that it goes on to talking about getting rid of catch and release, a policy where people when they are found illegally crossing the border had taken into illegally crossing the border had ta ken into custody illegally crossing the border had taken into custody but released ahead of a court date. some would argue, including critics, that families can stay together. he goes on to criticise other immigration policies and then says, crucially, we must continue building the wall. that of course is the war with mexico which is something he has talked about throughout his campaign. certainly, donald trump is

trying to put pressure on. as they continue to discuss what to do with what is known as the dreamers. young immigrants who went into the country under the age of 16 in 2007, and we re under the age of 16 in 2007, and were under the age of 31 in 2012. it's a very limited grip but intentionally they could use their protection to stay in america. it is what is really exercising the democrats. donald trump is saying, if you do me a deal on dreamers, potentially you have to do me a deal back on the wall. and tougher immigration policies. this is all about the issue of immigration which was key to donald trump's campaign and which he knows continues to fire up and which he knows continues to fire up his supporters. ireland overturns its ban on abortion with a resounding victory for pro—choice campaigners jubilation as the result was announced —

with two—thirds of voters in favour. so overwhelming but in the best way possible. we never expected that it would be so much of a landslide. for all women in ireland it is just momentous. ireland's prime minister said he hoped a new law allowing abortion would be passed by the end of the year. today is an historic day for ireland. a quiet revolution has taken place. and today is a great act of democracy. we'll be assessing the significance of this huge social change in ireland. also tonight. the company selling medicines to the nhs for thousands of pounds which can be bought for a fraction of the price. three in the box waiting for the cross and it was bale. what about that? and the wonder goal from real madrid that crushed liverpool's champions league dreams. good evening.

voters in ireland have overwhelmingly rejected their country's strict anti—abortion laws and backed reform in a landmark referendum. over 66% of voters supported the calls for change in a move that once would have been unthinkable. for decades irish women who wanted to terminate a pregnancy had to travel abroad — and many faced shame and stigma at home. the prime minister, leo varadkar, called today's result a "quiet revolution" for his country. the no campaign called it "a tragedy of historic proportions". from dublin, emma vardy reports. a transformative moment for ireland. more emphatically than anyone had predicted, the country has voted for change.

1,000,420 981. cheering and applause we have been working for so long for women's rights and it finally has come true. ireland has finally grown up, face the facts. for me, my daughters and my children. more than 3000 women leave ireland every year to pay for abortions privately in the uk. the first feelings we would have gone through was utter devastation at the diagnosis. her unborn baby had a fatal condition and could not survive. the fact that there was no assistance with making arrangements and no information, that made us feel veryjudged. more than two thirds of voters supported repealing ireland's controversial

law. today is a historic day for ireland. a quiet revolution has taken place. and today is a great act of democracy. 100 years since women gained the right to vote, today, we as a people have spoken. the government pulled out regular —— legislate to allow abortions up to 12 weeks of pregnancy but those who campaigned to keep ireland's strict laws, this brings bitter disappointment. this result will pave the way for an abortion regime thatis pave the way for an abortion regime that is nothing about health care and everything about abortion on demand. i would stand over the claims were made during the campaign. opinion on abortion is so strongly against the messages you are putting forward. strongly against the messages you are putting forwardlj strongly against the messages you are putting forward. i continue to oppose what many women want? —— why? we know women who have been hurt by an abortion, that is what gives us strength in continuing with this. today, ireland is unrecognisable

from its socially conservative past. this referendum at its heart was about offering women and choice. the result has brought so much more. a renewed pride and sense of optimism for ireland's future. we are bringing compassion home and empathy for people. an intense campaign at an end, ireland ushers in a new era. emma is in dublin. sum up for us what a huge change this is for ireland. i think the size of the yes vote today shows that ireland has changed more than many people realise. this one strongly catholic country has seen one strongly catholic country has seen huge shifts in cultural and political beliefs. and what happened today will have an impact further afield because northern ireland remains the only part of the uk where abortion is still unavailable. and people in the north tonight will

be asking, what does ireland's result mean for us? thank you. emma vardy. liverpool's champions league dream is over. in the past hour, they were beaten 3—1 by real madrid at the final in kiev. liverpool faced an early disaster, with their star player, mo salah, forced off the pitch with an injury. and an extraordinary goal from madrid's gareth bale helped deliver the knockout blow. from kiev, natalie pirks reports. they'd come from far and wide to watch history being made. planes, trains, coaches, cars, somehow they found a way to turn kiev read. waiting for them, the biggest game in club football, a chance for liverpool to turn five european wins into six. the time had come to size each other up. ronaldo for the galacticos, top scorer mo salah for liverpool. but the comparisons between the two lasted mere minutes. a tussle with agitator in chief sergio ramos left salah

clutching his shoulder. with his world cup injeopardy, he departed in tears. ramos' work here was done. liverpool knew they had to stay resolute, no mistakes could creep in. loris karius missed the memo. liverpool could respond the only way they knew how. sadio mane with his 11th goal of the campaign, just look what it meant to him. but then came a strike of such beauty it stunned everyone. gareth bale on the pitch forjust three minutes. it would have been a worthy winner, but he got another chance. 0ne goalkeeping error was bad enough, two was catastrophic, and brought tears before bedtime. at the final whistle he knew he would have to shoulder the blame for madrid's third consecutive champions league win. commentator: they are still very much the kings of european football. it looks like a dislocated shoulder

for mo salah, that is not yet confirmed. jurgen klopp has lost six majorfinals as a confirmed. jurgen klopp has lost six major finals as a manager and it will come as little consolation that they went to to do with madrid because you simply cannot gift opportunities like that to players of this calibre. but that goal from gareth bale, will be the best we have seen in this competition. if this was his last game in madrid shirt, he went died some style. natalie pirks, thank you. —— he went died. south korea's president moon jae—in met the north korean leader kim jong—un today for more talks aimed at resurrecting the planned summit with donald trump. it's the second meeting between the two leaders in the demilitarised zone that divides the two countries. a white house team is departing for singapore to prepare for the summit — if it takes place onjune12th. police have appealed for information about a missing schoolgirl who left the uk on a eurotunnel train. 13—year—old serena alexander—benson left her home in wimbledon yesterday morning, telling her father she was going to school.

the police believe she probably boarded the train "in the company of an older person". the owner of boots has been referred to the competition authorities over the prices it's charging the nhs for some drugs. an investigation by the times newspaper found walgreens boots alliance is charging more than £1000 for medicines which can be bought for a fraction of the cost. our business correspondent joe lynam is here. how has this been allowed to happen? what we're talking about here are drugs called ‘specials'. they're made—to—order drugs at very short notice by highly trained technicians. they make up a sliver of the overall pharmaceutical market. nonetheless, the figures charged by walgreens do appear on the surface to be quite extraordinary. £3,200 charged to the nhs for arthritis tablets that can be bought elsewhere for £1. £2,600 for specialist sleeping pills — also available for £1

in pharmacies. walgreens, which owns boots and is also an pharmaceutical wholesaler and distributor, does not dispute the figures paid by the nhs but firmly rejects that it is overcharging the nhs. and it says it looks forward to discussing the issue with the competition and markets authority as well as the government. but the department of health, which referred walgreens to the markets watchdog, says patients and taxpayers would take a very dim view of any company overcharging the nhs. thank you. mps have said a programme to protect afghan civilians who worked as interpreters for the british army has been a "dismal failure". the defence select committee say it has failed to relocate any interpreters to the uk, even when their lives are under threat from the taliban. richard galpin reports. british troops were on the ground fighting the taliban in afghanistan for more than a decade. their afghan interpreters also risked their lives

on the front lines. we have hidden their identities because, to this day, they face being murdered by the taliban for working with british forces. but so far, only a fraction of the 3500 interpreters have been allowed into britain, despite there being fatal attacks on those who had connections to foreign military forces. this former interpreter, speaking from afghanistan, told us he feared for himself and his family. it makes me feel very bad because i worked with them very honestly, i put my life at risk. i helped them in a bad situation in helmand province, so i feel very bad. it's now more than three years since the british combat mission in afghanistan ended, with most troops being pulled out. since then, 400 interpreters and locally hired staff have moved to britain. leaving most to fend for themselves at home in afghanistan.

the situation here is now being highlighted by british politicians, who also believe it is damaging for the uk. if the united kingdom gets a reputation for leaving those people who put their lives at risk to help our soldiers at the mercy of our enemies when our soldiers are no longer there to look after them, it will be very difficult in future conflicts to find people, local people, prepared to do that. in response to all this, officials here at the ministry of defence say that they will review the commons committee report. but they insist that they are providing security advice and support to the interpreters who are still living in afghanistan to ensure that they remain safe. richard galpin, bbc news, at the mod. now with all the rest of the day's sports news, here'sjohn watson at the bbc sport centre. chris froome stands on the brink of an historic win

in cycling's giro d'italia. if he safely negotiates tomorrow's largely processional final stage in rome, he'll hold all three grand tour titles at the same time and become the first british man to win the race in its 101—year history. drew savage reports. this was the moment chris froome knew he all but won it. the first british winner. of the giro d'italia. the big celebrations will come after sunday's ceremonial stage in rome, but for now, time to congratulate his team on a job well done. we have seen this so often at the tour de france, secure in the leaders jersey and protected by his team—mates. the first time we have seen it in the italian mountains. his heroics yesterday meant his nearest rival had to gain 40 seconds if he wanted to win the pinkjersey and he found a man wearing it stuck to his back wheel. he did everything he could to try to get ahead, but after over a fortnight

of looking out of the running, chris froome was in complete control. crossing the line with a 46 second advantage. but there are still unanswered questions. but italy will be three in a row. and that is something to celebrate. fulham will return to the premier league after a four year absence following a 1—0 victory over aston villa in today's championship play—off final at wembley, a match dubbed the most lucrative in football. joe lynskey reports. in english football, no much has higher stakes. 48 league games defined in a day and be the man to land promotion and you earn a place in club loyalty. for fulham and aston villa, the wait has been too long but the first steps back to the top were taken by the londoners. i finish by tom cairney set up by their teenager, ryan sessegnon with skills to unlock the door and release the tension. aston villa and

for the second tab to launch their onslaught, their manager was going for a record fifth promotion and they pinned their hopes on the feet of jack they pinned their hopes on the feet ofjack grealish. his they pinned their hopes on the feet of jack grealish. his twists and turns for the goal were stopped but another touch did strike a blow. denis 0doi off for a second yellow. villa had 20 minutes to make that count but go behind in these games and the clock turns too quickly. they ran out of chances and ran out of hope. fulham returned to the top after four years away but after the fireworks comes the premier league spotlight and the hard work starts here. joe lansky, bbc news. and it's been another tough day for england's cricketers, who've built a slender 56 run lead in the first test against pakistan at lord's. ben stokes one of several batsmen to fall cheaply in pursuit
