this is bbc news. i'm rebecca jones. the headlines at 11:00pm: donald trump and vladimir putin hail their first face—to—face summit as a success and "a good start" to improving relations. but mr trump is being widely criticised by policialfigures in the us, with former republican presdiential candidate senatorjohn mccain describing his conciliatory attitude toward russia as, "one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president in memory." ayes to the right, 305. the noes to the left, 302. the government narrowly avoids defeat on the customs bill after agreeing to conservative row brexit demands to change its wording. the number of eu citizens leaving the uk

last year was the highest on record, according to new figures. also coming up: trouble for the online movie streaming service netflix. shares of the company, which commissioned shows such as the crown have plummeted with netflix reporting a low number of new subscribers. and here we go again. hollywood stars are on the red carpet in london tonight for the world premiere of the mamma mia movie sequel. good evening. the first presidential summit between the us and russia in eight years has provoked a storm of criticism back in the united states. after talks between president trump and president putin, the us leader hailed what he called a new constructive dialogue with russia and greater cooperation

between the two nations. president trump then went on to choose president putin's denial that russia had interfered with the us election over repeated assertions from us intelligence that he did. that has prompted outrage from, unusually, many senior republicans, who've criticised the president's comments, calling them shocking and disgraceful. 0ur north america editorjon sopel reports from where the meeting took place in the finnish capital, helsinki. as befitting two self—proclaimed strongmen, there was a power—play from the off. vladimir putin arriving almost rudely late into finland... it was a bit late... ..leaving donald trump kicking his heels for nearly an hour. but then, against the constant whirr of camera shutters, they sat down at the presidential palace in helsinki to start their discussion.

i think we have great opportunities together, as two countries that, frankly, we have not been getting along very well for the last number of years. i've been here not too long, but it's getting close to two years. the world wants to see us get along, we are the two great nuclear powers, we have 90% of the nuclear — and that's not a good thing, it's a bad thing. and i think we hopefully can do something about that. translation: the time has come to talk in a substantive way about our bilateral relations, and the many problem areas of the world. with rather fewer cameras present, the two men met for the formal handshake. they then sat alone, just them and their translators, for two hours, before the working lunch. i think it's a good start. that turned into a media scrum, until the secret service had had enough. and there was a small fracas before the news conference began — a man sitting next to me was evicted, who'd planned

to hold up placards. but then the two leaders appeared, and while not going as far as to claim it was a new dawn, the president was happy to say today had been a turning point. 0ur relationship has never been worse than it is now. however, that changed, as of about four hours ago. i really believe that. of all the people donald trump has picked fights with, vladimir putin is not one of them. was that because of collusion during the election? translation: can you name a single fact that would definitely prove the collusion? this is utter nonsense. nonsense, said donald trump. just to say it one time again, and i say it all the time, there was no collusion,

i didn't know the president, there was nobody to collude with. and this question. does does the russian government have any compromising material on president trump or his family? translation: yes, i did hear the rumours that we did collect compromising material on president trump. when mr trump was in moscow back then, i didn't even know he was in moscow. i treat president trump with utmost respect. what about simple russian interference? something the 12 russian intelligence agents were indicted for last week? would you now, with the world watching, tell president putin that you denounce what happened in 2016 and that you wa nt what happened in 2016 and that you want him to never do it again? all i can do is ask the question. my people came to me, dan coates came to me, and they said, they think it is russia. i have president putin, he just is russia. i have president putin, hejust said it is russia. i have president putin, he just said it is is russia. i have president putin, hejust said it is not is russia. i have president putin, he just said it is not russia. is russia. i have president putin, hejust said it is not russia. i will say this, i don't see any reason why it would be. he deflected

all questions on russian meddling, blaming the fbi, the —— refusing to blame the russians. if he hoped the summit would allow him to move on from questions of russian interference, he is in for a nasty surprise when he lands back in dc. the talks come days after after the justice department announced the indictments of a dozen russian intelligence operatives for allegedly hacking democratic targets in the 2016 us presidential election. when asked whether he would extradite the 12 russians allegedly involved in election meddling, putin instead detailed a plan, which trump later described as an incredible offer. translation: we can offer the appropriate commission, headed by

special attorney mueller, he can send a special request from us, so that we can interrogate and questioned these individuals who he believes are privy to some crimes and our enforcement can do this questioning and send the appropriate materials to the united states. moreover, we can meet you halfway. we can make another step. we can actually permit official representatives of the united states, including the members of this very commission, headed by mr mueller, can let them into the country, and they can be present in this question. in this case, it should be mutual. then we would expect that the americans would

reciprocate. and they would question officials, including the offices of law enforcement and intelligence services of the united states whom we believe have something to do with a legal actions on the territory of russia. a reporter at the press conference asked mr trump if he believed that putin played a part in the allegedly election meddling. just now, president putin denied having anything to do with the election interference in 2016. every us intelligence agency has concluded that russia did. my first question for you, sir, is that russia did. my first question foryou, sir, is who that russia did. my first question for you, sir, is who do you believe? my for you, sir, is who do you believe? my second question is, would you now with the whole world watching, tell president putin that you denounce what happen in 2016 and you don't wa nt what happen in 2016 and you don't want him to ever do it again? let me say that i have two thoughts, we have groups wondering why the fbi never took the server. where are

they? what happened to hillary clinton's e—mails? 33,000 e—mails gone, just gone. i have great confidence in my intelligent people, but i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. and what he did is an incredible far. he offered to have the people working oi'i offered to have the people working on the case come and work with their investigators with respect to the 12 people. i think that's an incredible offer. 0k? thank you. david willis is in washington and he joins us now. david, tell us more about the response to this extraordinary news conference and president trump's comments. i suppose one would have expected sort of derogatory comments perhaps from the democrats, but the republicans aren't very happy either, are they? they are not, absolutely right, condemnation from both sides of the

political aisle, talk of throwing the intelligence agencies under the bus, if you like. and their assessments of russian meddling in the elections here, you mentioned the elections here, you mentioned the democrats, chuck schumer came out, senate minority leader, with a statement calling president trump's remarks a shameful performance. a short while ago we had a tweet from newt gingrich, former adviser and senior republican, and he said, president trump must clarify his state m e nts president trump must clarify his statements in helsinki on our intelligence system and president putin is the most serious mistake of his presidency and must be corrected immediately. added to which you've got paul ryan, mitch mcconnell, senior republicans both distancing themselves from the remarks of donald trump today. he will not be coming back to favourable headlines here in washington, it is there to say. it is interesting, isn't it, david. he is on a plane at the moment coming back to america.

presumably he isn't in a position to be tweeting his side of the story at the moment. well, i think we can expect some version of events from donald trump sooner, if not later. there is an interview of course that is due to be broadcast later this evening on the fox news channel, which he has given to short hannity. and we have also heard as well in a short while from vladimir putin himself who has also given an interview to a fox correspondent. but, yes, i am sure president trump will seek to get ahead of these headlines. but it will be disconcerting to many in the republican party. they will seek to unify over the next few months at least. because there are certain domestic priorities up—and—coming. for example, the nomination of a supreme courtjustice. for example, the nomination of a supreme court justice. and for example, the nomination of a supreme courtjustice. and there is the mid—term elections in november. but after that some are saying that we could see the fault lines of descent beginning to widen, at

rebecca. david, is there any sent that —— sense that donald trump achieved anything by meeting president putin? well, a lot of people have said that he didn't. and a lot of people of course expressed incredulity that there was this summit when there didn't appear to bea summit when there didn't appear to be a particular agenda for it or any real bullet points going into it and so on. real bullet points going into it and so on. a lot of people of course we re so on. a lot of people of course were hoping, given the timing of those indictments last week against those indictments last week against those 12 russian military officials, that donald trump would waive those in the face of vladimir putin. that was never going to happen of course. and clearly he has gone a long way short of that. david willis, in washington, good to talk to you. thanks for that. theresa may has caved in to pressure from tory brexiteers over her plan for leaving the european union, and narrowly neutralised a potential rebellion by those mps who were looking to reject her brexit proposals. meanwhile, calls by a former cabinet minister for a second referendum to break the political deadlock over brexit has been ruled out

by the government. 0ur political editor laura kuenssberg has been following the latest developments. oh, wow! goodness me. 0bjects might not be what they first appear. theresa may's carefully manufactured brexit compromise might now be missing some of its crucial parts. the prime minister is sticking to her script, that the chequers plan is the right one. our proposal sets out the right plan for the uk, honouring the democratic decision of the british people, protecting the integrity of our precious union, supporting growth, maintaining security, and safeguarding britishjobs. it is notjust the resignation of two senior ministers she has to worry about now, even if borisjohnson is yet to move out of the foreign secretary's swanky pad. he and david davies both quit over the plan, believing it keeps us too

close to the eu after we leave. do you regret resigning? no, not for a moment! but dozens of tories were ready tonight to vote against the government to protest, but facing defeat, ministers backed down on some parts. it is quite clear that chequers and the white paper that was published last week simply do not restate what the prime minister had committed, even something like ten days ago. downing street is trying to claim that they haven't given into the eurosceptic group. i would not have gone through all the work i did to ensure that we reached that agreement, only to see it changed in some way through these bills. frankly, that's just not what many mps believe. one has to wonder now, who is in charge?! who is running britain? it is time for people to put aside

the ideology and nonsense invariably from not inhabiting the real world. face up to the reality is this white paper seeks to face up to the reality is this white paperseeks to do, face up to the reality is this white paper seeks to do, reject these ludicrous amendments that the government had agreed to. confused about what is going on in there? well, it took months for theresa may to get most of ministers to agree her chequers compromise. it might not have been perfect, but it was a plan that number ten hoped would endure. but some brexiteers were so cross with elements of it that they produced some of their own tweaks to try to force her to back down. it was a power—play and, for today, at least, number ten has let them have their way. but if parliament, day by day, finds it harder to agree anything should, in the end, the big choice come back to you? i would have liked it if parliament had been able to reach a compromise, but it is clear that it can't, and you either put your head

in the sand or recognise that reality, you are pragmatic, and then you ask yourself, what is the way that we can still get through this and that we can still perhaps deliver on the brexit that people wanted, that we can still put the choice in front of the british people? politicians are miles away from agreeing that. having another brutal referendum, a fight that could be tougher on all sides than the last time round. but ideas about how to move forward are in short supply. more on brexit later. the tv and movie streaming company netflix has released its latest financial results. shares fell sharply in after hours trading, after the company revealed it had added just over 5 million new subscribers between april and june — about a million less than markets were expecting. 0ur reporter paul blake joins us now from new york. paul, what are the numbers telling

us? the numbers are pretty disappointing and as you said, wall street a nalysts disappointing and as you said, wall street analysts have been hammering netflix‘s stocks here in after hours trading and certainly the numbers we re trading and certainly the numbers were not what analysts were expecting and not what netflix wa nted expecting and not what netflix wanted to announce this afternoon. as you said, i wanted to announce this afternoon. as you said, 1 million less subscribers than what the analysts and netflix were expecting to announce. the key figures are that they added just over half a million subscribers in the us, 670,000, 4.7 million viewers on international levels and that is a key market to them, a big year, surpassing disney as the us's biggest media firm and surpassing hbo in terms of any award nominations so they are adding subscribers and growing but not at the speed that wall street was integrated. —— emmy awards.

the speed that wall street was integrated. -- emmy awards. they said why that might be? they have been slow to say, possibly the world cup some analysts say, which took them away from streaming entertainment or the games in the evening on their dvr. no one has been able to say what it is but this comes at a time when netflix was hoping for good news, they have had a lot of good news over the last six months. they were starting to look internationally, while they have been an english—language company and produced programmes in english for the us, they've started to expand notably to india where they have started producing content in languages in countries that don't speak english. you see an expansion in south america, in south asia and a nalysts in south america, in south asia and a na lysts o n in south america, in south asia and analysts on wall street will be concerned that after having disappointing numbers, there are some competitors which can step in and show they are a strong force against netflix. it might be worth

you explaining why a user growth is so you explaining why a user growth is so critical in this particular area. certainly in the us, new competition from companies like amazon. amazon gives netflix a run for its money but other competitors. apple is said to be getting into the original content market. companies like youtube and google. the streaming front. looking to see who can take su ccesses front. looking to see who can take successes from the uk market and taken to developing countries. a growing population going onto the internet, support —— subscribing services like netflix. people are wondering, who are the companies that can be doing that? that will keep investors like wall street happy but if they are showing wea kness happy but if they are showing weakness or showing they are coming in under what people are expecting, they can show that other competitors can come along and take shareholders

in netflix. the number of the people coming to the uk from the eu compared with the number leaving has fallen to its lowest level in nearly five years. the office for national statistics says a total of 101,000 more people arrived than left the country in 2017. 0ur economics editor kamal ahmed has been finding out if the brexit referendum has changed people's attitudes towards coming to and living here. hacking up use of their lives, it not been easy to them to leave the uk. it's not that easy to make this decision. i wanted to live up to the referendum i was in tears.|j decision. i wanted to live up to the referendum i was in tears. i said, don't worry, they are going to find a way to get a deal but actually, after almost two years, i start to worry after almost two years, i start to woi’i’y as after almost two years, i start to worry as well. they are just one family have decided to leave britain's shores. the number of eu

citizens to emigrate from the last year was the highest level ever on record, 130 9000. at the number of people coming to the uk from the eu is still more than the number leaving. net migration from the eu was 101,000 last year. from outside the eu, it was 220 7000. it's not as simple as adding those two together to find the total, net migration is to find the total, net migration is to 80 2000. figures show there are still more people coming to the uk than leaving it. that figure has remained relatively stable but it is far above the level that the government set itself of tens of thousands. what i think is really important is that we look to the future and no migration is broadly sta ble future and no migration is broadly stable but were brought in a raft of policies over the last eight years which will but unable us going forward to make sure migration is headed in the right direction and

we've taken back control of our own borders. for some, the uncertainty has been too much. paolo and costa nza lea p for has been too much. paolo and costa nza leap for italy has been too much. paolo and costanza leap for italy in two has been too much. paolo and costa nza leap for italy in two weeks but others inside and outside the eu, the uk is still a place they wa nt to eu, the uk is still a place they want to call home. ten years ago the abba musical mamma mia smashed box office records — with its winning mix of greek sunshine and singing hollywood stars. this week sees the release of the sequel mamma mia! here we go again. sophie van brugen went to the premiere to meet stars lilyjames and dominic cooper. she began by talking to lilyjames, who's playing a younger version of meryl streep's character donna. here we are at the world premiere of mamma mia! here we go again. 0ne he

would merely james who mamma mia! here we go again. 0ne he would merelyjames who is playing the younger donna, the platform shoes to fill. yes, big sexy platform shoes. it was a bull whelming when i took it as an opportunity to study and embrace and learn from meryl streep and in particular that she did with donna sheridan which was so spectacular and made the whole world fall in love with her, she is out of this world so i stride —— i try to ca ptu re world so i stride —— i try to capture the essence. when you heard you got the role, what is your first reaction, knowing how successful the first film was? it's hard to say because i'm a huge fan, i've seen the show multiple times, i sought is a little girl, i love aber and i saw the first movie so it's almost meant to be. it's really special. i'm so grateful. dominic cooper, who is in the first one. you are getting out of my shot. joking aside, ten years on, what made you want to come back for more? the first one was the best

one of ever had on a film set and i knew that i was reassured by the fa ct knew that i was reassured by the fact that after ten years, they've obviously come up with a really wonderful story, they haven't piggybacked on the success of the first one and created something that wasn't worth the music. they worked something out which was wonderful and read the story which was so heartwarming and life—affirming and it is beautiful to get to understand and though the characters that we have come to love and work out how their history was. the great thing is, with a back catalogue, there we re is, with a back catalogue, there were so is, with a back catalogue, there were so mini more songs to use. so many more songs but they deserved the wonderful story, you can'tjust throw it out and hope the best because there is some good music. i'm sure you are explaining to the director, throwing all those songs into a display book. creating a

story through them and around them. is it fun with all the younger cast is coming through. it really was, and it's so much aboutjudy, who was the original creator in the family which is made. we all get on so well and after ten years, we fell back into friendships. the new one has been cast in a way, they are such a sweet, lovely bunch of people. i never knew what table i was meant to be out. i didn't know where i was. i still feel like i'm on the children's table, it's always more fun. absolutely, lovely to meet you, dominic. enjoy the premier. the victorious french football team has paraded the world cup down the main street of paris. lucy

williamson was watching the celebrations. beneath the memorial to france's military conquerors came its newest heroes, bringing their trophy fresh from the fight. world champions, turned national icons, recording the moment on their mobile phones. this team has reflected back to its nation an image it can be proud of. young, triumphant, full of hope — notjust an emblem of national glory, but of all it means to be french. crowd chants: allez, les bleus! allez, les bleus! ifeel very, very proud to be french and i feel incredible. i'm so excited to be here with everybody else. it's unique moment to share with all the other french people and everybody in paris. we hope that this team can change the mentality of the country. but i think they can because, yesterday, white people, black people, orange people were together. so, er, maybe it's possible. why not?

team coach didier deschamps, who played in france's world cup win two decades ago, was honoured in moscow last night with a song and a bath of champagne. back home, they did things differently, a metro station that once began champs—elysees temporarily changed to honour his name. tonight, at the elysee palace, the team were hosted by their most famous fan. just kids themselves when france last won this trophy, it was only right to pass the moment on. translation: thank you again to the whole of france. i hope we made you tremble, i hope we made you jump. they say a world cup win means popularity, for players and presidents alike, and among the names history here will remember are those of its young men in blue. # we are the champions #.

lucy williamson, bbc news, paris. theresa may has won a series of votes in parliament tonight to keep her strategy to leave the european unionjust her strategy to leave the european union just about on track by bowing to pressure from brexit supporters in her own party by accepting the barnes of the hardline, she is expose her vulnerability, including the pro—eu conservative mp dominic grieve who voted against the government and i'm delighted to say hejoins us now government and i'm delighted to say he joins us now from westminster. we are grateful because i know it's late. by voting against the government, is it your intention to bring theresa may down? not at all. the risk to her is that the fact that she was forced to accept two of these amendments which in my view very much undermine what is in her own white paper, ifear that

very much undermine what is in her own white paper, i fear that she very much undermine what is in her own white paper, ifear that she has put herself in a position of considerable weakness. i regret three much that some of my collea g u es three much that some of my colleagues have decided to do this. they did, and a few of us took the view that it wasn't acceptable. they we re very view that it wasn't acceptable. they were very poorly drafted. they were incoherent in the probably didn't actually do what they were seeking if the message they sent out was perfectly plain, which is that they intended to dictate to the prime minister alterations to the white paper which she has onlyjust produced after a great deal of effort. you must accept this is hugely embarrassing, notjust the government but for theresa may. she makes concessions to hardline brexit tea rs makes concessions to hardline brexit tears and nearly loses the vote in the house of commons because of the remaining colleagues. this is part of the difficulty that we are facing at the moment. all of us, and have

said this before, have to be willing to compromise the undoubted divisions that exist, notjust in my own party but also in the labour party which heavily divide us on this controversial and risky and challenging issue which goes to the heart of our economic stability and u nfortu nately, heart of our economic stability and unfortunately, it's not a matter on which people are agreed. the prime minister, having discussed with her cabinet and resolve their differences, and i'm the first to say, it's not perfect but nevertheless, they seem to be to be a constructive basis on which we could make progress and in the course of the week that has followed, it has been attacked and undermined by some of my colleagues and in order to survive, the prime minister has had to
