spite of all of her efforts, it has become clear that there are pessimists at home and abroad who think that after three years of indecision, that this country has become a prisoner to the old arguments of 2016. and in the sum of democracy, we are incapable of honouring a democratic mandate and i'm standing before you today to tell you, the british people, that those critics are wrong. the doubters, the doom and gloom, they are going to get it wrong again. the people who bet against britain are going to lose their shirts because we are going to restore trusts in oui’ we are going to restore trusts in our democracy. we are going to fulfil the repeated promises of parliament to the people. and come out of the eu on october the 31st, know if starbucks, will have a better deal that will

maximise and develop an exciting partnership with the rest of europe. based on trade and mutual support. i have every confidence that in 99 days‘ time that we will have cracked it. but we are not going to wait 99 days, because the british people have had enough of waiting. the time has come to act, to take decisions, to give strong leadership and change this country for the better. and though the queen has just honoured me with this extraordinary office of state, myjob is to serve you, the people. because if there is one point that we need to remember, it is that the people are our bosses. plenty of optimism, but some of these appointments will raise eyebrows. and downing street, vicki, tell us the other day that the

objective is to deliver brexit, unite the party and defeatjeremy corbyn. can you unite the conservative party with the cabinet that looks like this? it is very hard, because the party is split, so while you can see a borisjohnson is doing here is building a cabinet and they will all be signed up to the possibility of leaving without a deal at the end of october, that is i think the eu probably never really believed that theresa may was serious when she said that leaving without a deal was better than a bad deal. but if they look at this cabinet, they will think that boris johnson is very serious about that threat. people like michael gove being put into the office to make sure that no deal planning is wrapped up and goes ahead. i think they have three months, they have to

deliver brexit that is what boris johnson wants and he knows that as prime minister, because brexit has not happened. the problem is the rest of the party, all of those going to the back benches, people like the chancellor philip hammond and others who have said they would do anything to stop no deal from happening and that is a major problem for borisjohnson in the weeks ahead. he says he wants to get a new kind of deal but is not entirely sure what he means by that and whether it will be the kind of deal that his party could go off of. so huge challenges ahead but very clear what he is trying to do in the signal that he is trying to send with the makeup of this cabinet. huge challenges but if you look at the rock that went through the conservative party between the premiership, it started at the cabinet. there was no cabinet responsibility and we look at this cabinet, they are all on the same page. and that is why he has done it because i was the problem. you had people from the cabinet, people

openly defying with the prime minister was saying and it lead into a total breakdown of discipline for the entire party. it is not unique to the conservative party, the labour of had the same problems over brexit. but that is a borisjohnson is saying to the cabinet. he is saying i need your loyalty, we need to be disciplined we have to make sure we are serious about this and what we deliver on brexit by the end of october. so it a very clear mission that i have talked about other priorities, matt hancock is going to stay to deliver on the social care plan because that is something that boris johnson social care plan because that is something that borisjohnson talked about as one of his priorities and thatis about as one of his priorities and that is going to be a huge task, something that has not been grasped by any government over the past ten 01’ by any government over the past ten or 15 years even though they all know that it has to be done and that isa know that it has to be done and that is a big task there for matt hancock, talking about extra funding and the police as well. if boris johnson does want to do other

things, it is obvious that like theresa may, his premiership will be defined by brexit. are we expecting more this evening? possibly, i think we could talk about the entire cabinet, we are not far off, so we had all the sacking and one of the most ruthless reshuffling in modern political times, there are still a few of them and thereby think we'll get most of the cabinet by the end. will come back when you have more news, labour democrat. a very clear choice starting to emerge and we do get to a general election, this is a very brexit facing government and you have a new leader who is advocating remain. the slight problem is they have not picked aside yet. for the labour party. that will remain a problem for the labour party, or jeremy that will remain a problem for the labour party, orjeremy corbyn, the

country has a clear choice. so if borisjohnson decides to country has a clear choice. so if boris johnson decides to push for a general election, they can choose between the conservative party or the brexit party if they fancy brexit, or they can choose between the liberal democrats if they want to stop brexit. a very simple choice. i'm thinking today that perceptively, the debate in the house of commons is shifting whereas last week we are talking about remain and leave, now we are talking about deal or no deal. it's been a pretty good couple of months for the brexit side of the debate. pretty good couple of months for the brexit side of the debatem pretty good couple of months for the brexit side of the debate. it is true, i think all of the leading brexit campaign members, who three years ago were talking about the uk would secure a deal, have not probably realise that they not like the one that was secured and are not suggesting that actually, the way forward is no deal. that is certainly not what was proposed

three years ago it has no legitimacy whatsoever i believe, so we have a prime minister who is going to advocate that was just been elected by only 0.15% of the population. 0ne ata by only 0.15% of the population. 0ne at a 500 people have elected a prime minister who says that no deal is acceptable. would you accept that, if you are in the european union tonight and looking at the developments here, you can be under no illusions that the government is serious about no deal? you look at this cabinet, although on the same page about which direction they're headed, europe is going to have a choice as well. europe is going to have to make a choice very quickly whether or not it's prepared to change its deal. no, ithink whether or not it's prepared to change its deal. no, i think but the european union has had to do is agree amongst 27 countries, what

their position was, they cannot simply shift from that position day by day because it requires going back to 27 parties to get that agreement. that is why they have been consistent all along because it doesn't matter what borisjohnson says, we cannot do this, and he waves his arms around and looks really optimistic. the fact is the eu, having the position that they agreed, offered the united kingdom a deal which was agreed with the united kingdom, which included things like the backstop which are prime minister agreed to, they're not going to tear that up. what they might do is change the political declaration so what might happen in the future, they might do that. but ido the future, they might do that. but i do not think they're going to shifted all of the withdrawal agreement which means a boris johnson will either try to crash out without a deal or perhaps he's got to call a general election or she might call a people's vote.|j to call a general election or she might call a people's vote. i want to ask about confidence motions, being appointed as the secretary for

the environment royal affairs replacing michael go. when it comes to votes of confidence and there's going to be one of the opposition party are going to attempt, you think it be tomorrow, maybe in the first two weeks of september. are you having conversations with some of those remainders on the conservative benches? we favour a motion of no—confidence as soon as possible because they want a general election. tomorrow is unlikely. and it can only be the labour party that actually secures that and i guess the difficulty is that there probably some conservatives want to give borisjohnson probably some conservatives want to give boris johnson wrongly in probably some conservatives want to give borisjohnson wrongly in my view, the benefit of the doubt, see if he achieves anything at all over the month of august, which i don't think he will and then they're going to have to be confronted with that decision in september where they'll be willing to back it motion of

confidence. i appreciate the motion. but if you're across the liberal democrat benches and as we talk about, how many do you think you can pull across? i will not speculate on that, there are people that are already very aware of is that all of the political parties with the exception of the du p have members who are working together to block no deal and who are working together to block no dealand in many who are working together to block no deal and in many cases are working to try and secure a people's vote so they can pull the plug on this disastrous brexit that is costing them an arm and a leg and if you do brexit, will be worse off than were restarted. some of the newly appointed ministers have been giving their reaction this evening including priti patel she returns to government as home secretary after being sacked as international trade secretary in 2017. it isa it is a great honour to be appointed home secretary with this office of state, it comes significant

responsibilities and i will do everything in my power to keep our country everything in my power to keep our cou ntry safe, everything in my power to keep our country safe, our people secure and also to fight the scourge of crime that we see on our streets. i also wa nt to that we see on our streets. i also want to thank the predecessor, sajid javid for his commitment to the home 0ffice javid for his commitment to the home office of law and order and i look forward to the challenges that now lie ahead. thank you. newly appointed foreign secretary dominic raab gave his reaction to rejoining the government after resigning as brexit secretary last november. lam i am hugely humbled to take on this role at this time and excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. we have the challenges of brexit and thatis have the challenges of brexit and that is something we want as a country to rise to, obviously the foreign office, the message that was said about the opportunities around the world and our confidence in our country and taking those opportunities since i cannot wait to get involved. what would be your resolve ? get involved. what would be your

resolve? not to going to hasty decisions and have worked out issues and if the very sense of ambition and if the very sense of ambition and take full. can unite the conservative party was blue the most important thing is to get us out of the eu, preferably with the deal. ? this brexit process, i think once you have done that, and we can fulfil the aspirations that we set out. thank you very much. rebuild morale because there is still the fallout from morale, suspensions, people resigning, that job will start. up with me here is

the conservative mp and he told me just off camera that this cabinet is your dream just off camera that this cabinet is yourdream team. just off camera that this cabinet is your dream team. it is for a very good reason. these are incredibly competent people and also you can trust them because dominic raab resigned over the question of the handling of this particular brexit issue. in addition to this, i am very glad to see that he's being kept on because he is a continuity person who was against the idea and defiance of the cabinet a few months ago and priti patel really knows her stuff and boris johnson ago and priti patel really knows her stuff and borisjohnson of course has got this enormous drive and is committing himself to leave on the sist committing himself to leave on the 31st of october. he knows. why do you think the brexiteers like liam fox ? you think the brexiteers like liam fox? i would say, the question is just exactly where they fit into this particular brexit question is

also a matter that we need to look at very carefully. it is notjust simplya at very carefully. it is notjust simply a question of saying you are a brexiteer, it is a question of what you have said and what you have donein what you have said and what you have done in the short answer is, the people have been appointed, have all demonstrated by their actions and was been and pointed for the environment is another one. these are people who really approve their worth and their strength. very good for the backstop? actually, on one occasion, that is true. but it is not true to say that she really understands the issue and completely committed. that is something in the past. this is what we're doing now what they said today and yesterday, absolutely speaks for itself, this isa absolutely speaks for itself, this is a really first—class team, a team of competence and remember also that dominic raab himself actually decide the question of the way theresa may

was handling it when he was secretary of state himself. what it is is the bringing together of the tea m is is the bringing together of the team that ran both leave, including the ringmaster effectively. be pulling the strings stepped out not effectively true. but not only boris johnson as prime minister domenech by all accounts has incredible amounts of energy and will throw himself into thatjob in the light of what has been decided. he has been very critical, as you know, of the european research group and called it a narcissist, delusional subset. i would not take that too seriously, because we proved our point by what we have done over the yea rs point by what we have done over the years and from the rebellion, which i carried through in the early 1990s

through all the other places, and the referendum bill, our record speaks for itself. i do not need to justify it, and just showing you it's a matter of history and the matter—of—fact. it's a matter of history and the matter-of-fact. if the strategy is no deal and that is where their building money into preparation, how are you and your supporters going to get that through parliament? how are you going to do the without parliament? it is a red herring. it never was of any substance, in my opinion. the real question is the issue itself, if you look about what happened three weeks ago when there was a business motion which is actually really about the issue of brexit itself, we won by a majority and labour members voting with us about 13 and in addition to that, the 28 extensions. that speaks for itself and the other day, there was another vote which was lost, but

that was another red herring. in order to change the arrangements, you have to look at what the withdrawal act actually says, repeal the european communities act. that is the law of the land and they cannot change that without passing legislation to repeal the act. those are the real hard facts and the resolutions in the house of commons and motions do not make any real significant difference and make no difference to the legislation. we are talking about real law, real fa cts . are talking about real law, real facts. plenty of reaction from the parties, let's take them at the labour leader has been saying. talking about the political climate, will make them confident enough to doa will make them confident enough to do a vote of no confidence. requires a majority to win a majority of no

confidence. i will put one down at a time of our choosing than we think it will be successful. but you have had that is a goal for some time, what is it that you failed to do from sometime that you can do to change the circumstances? conservative and dp mps need to recognise that this is a government that barely has an arithmetic majority in parliament and certainly does not have the confidence of the people in this country. the questions i make to the prime minister and the new prime minister was that this country deserves a general election to determine what government it wants who and how we are going to deal with the glaring inequalities and injustices in our society. the new promised or did not offer a solution to any of us today, all he offered was actually a continuation of austerity and more tax cuts for the very richest. let's get more on a remarkable evening of cabinet changes i'm joined by cindy yu from the spectator and asa bennett

from the telegraph. nice to see it. what do you make of what you have seen today? much more the a when expected, it has been quite a surprise, a brexiteer who was a member of the cloud when boris johnson was not even an government. but the reason could be that she stay with the government regardless of theresa may's deal, she voted for her deal, and not be seen as a true brexiteer. and dominic is a very interesting one, the mastermind behind vote leave. he was not a part of the campaign for borisjohnson leadership. but that shows that borisjohnson is serious about no deal preparations. but according to michael gove, and interesting one incident. he has really been the

eyes and ears for the prime minister. you'll be the man enforcing the deal preparations. one of the key left tenants and import of the key left tenants and import of the key left tenants and import of the circle that we have done, in 2016 they thought they would vote leave and when, they fell out. and look at them now. now he is producing the government he wanted to do in the first place. a vote leave inspired government full of professionals who backed brexit with him and michael gove in the tank with them as well. what could be better than that? highly competent figure, michael gove and he will attempt to go with enormous energy. ugly throughout theresa may's government has been a voice against no deal and cautioning about the destruction of no deal, but putting in that role —— all throughout. maybe we'll see a more cautious deal as opposed to all blazing approach.

two speeches from boris johnson, as opposed to all blazing approach. two speeches from borisjohnson, we are not clear what the strategy, tomorrow there'll be a statement of the house and impose an awful lot of questions. do you think were going to get some of the details? we will certainly try and boris johnson previous speeches and he will give the confidence that he wants a brexit deal that is good enough for him. it's about ambiguity in a sense. he is trying to show that he has solid brexiteers in place. he is not afraid to do no deal and he's got some reformers that are willing to shape the civil service and is and in his image. looking at it to the eyes of the europeans, they are heading for no deal if there is no change. it could all be a part of a bluff if borisjohnson really thinks is the last resource. but people

could be willing to compromise. but it isa could be willing to compromise. but it is a big gamble when there's so many people passionate about brexit. from the europe site, they can say it isa from the europe site, they can say it is a bluff, but people are weathered. he is ready on october the 31st, kick the can and he could kick the bucket. all these lovely sound bites that are going to come back and bite him if he doesn't leave on the 31st and it's going to be politically fatal for him if he seeks an extension or turns out to be in our disaster. one strategist if few hours ago said that it is going to be a general election, all they care about is the cabinet appointments, there will be no deal if they don't give us a deal, this is all to soften up the public in a moment where he says, i tried to do this, parliament stopped me, europe stopped me and maybe that's his best chance. i can see how that plays out, frankly. boris can then say with 100 days to go, he has tried to

get this done. he made the deadline and parliament mated died by delaying and forcing his hands by legislating us to death in the sense of october 31 deadline and the nets returned to the people and say give mea returned to the people and say give me a new parliament that will help me a new parliament that will help me get this done and at our point, he would be the people's champion. he can pose like this is such a pro and make people he'll be standing for people but the majority of that. and education. what you think of that? she is a man they kept a ta ra ntula that? she is a man they kept a tarantula on his desk. i'm not sure if he should be, gavin williamson. over the leak inquiry, back to boris johnson early on and his loyalty

showed. he is not involved in national security directly, considering the circumstances he left it, that is, not to reward him for all of the spreadsheet work he did. and given the work that they did. and given the work that they did to get him, the numbers, to bring them to the leadership ranks, he isjust what bring them to the leadership ranks, he is just what a lever ordered. bring them to the leadership ranks, he is just what a lever orderedm a culture secretary, someone who was supposed to brexit, did not vote to brexit constituency. she voted remain, reaching her hand across and she also is a moderate tory, a one nation tory. a unifying tended to have, slightly below, when she was in david cameron plus plus cabinet. and she was very key to the compromise. she was the one that tried to bridge the divide. the

remainder architect is very sceptical of the backstop, she is working in the commission. trying to find a better brexit. she is working around europe. oh yes. serious people like her thinking about this so they can come ready to these negotiations. just finally, do you think were going to get more tonight? is looking like were going tonight? is looking like were going to get a full cabinet by the end? we have the key jobs to get a full cabinet by the end? we have the keyjobs certainly lined up. and making sure things are now down in time for that. and then tomorrow the junior ministers and boris making his general statement and parliament and nice serendipitously from there. that is interesting. over the course of the next few weeks. thank you very much. just a year and one other appointment, it was andrea letson is going to business in detail. going

and that is an important appointment. lots more on that when we look at the appointment but let's get a check on the weather. sun extremely hot weather is on the way tomorrow. so hot that he could challenge the all—time uk temperature record which currently stands at 30.5 celsius. between thursday afternoon we could potentially see temperatures search although up to 39. toward southeast england particularly in the hot spots. in the remainder of the night, it could be dried with few showers the time to time in northern ireland another warm night for sleeping and temperature is going to bed into the low 20s across parts of england and wales and slowly drifting down into the teens and across the north and west of the uk. that takes us into tomorrow and there will be plenty of sunshine across scotland, england and wales, the south east wind drying up that hotair, the south east wind drying up that hot air, particularly for southeast england with a few showers time to time in northern ireland another

warm night for sleeping and temperatures going to bed into the low 20s across parts of england and wales and slowly drifting down into the teens and across the north and west of the uk. the texas and tomorrow there will be plenty of sunshine across scotland, england and wales, the southeast wind drying up and wales, the southeast wind drying up at hot air, particularly for southeast england with a few shots possible for northern ireland and some storms breaking out later in the day elsewhere. it is all about the day elsewhere. it is all about the temperatures tomorrow and we could see heise hitting an incredible 39 celsius in the southeast of england. hello this is bbc news. the headlines... borisjohnson has boris johnson has taken borisjohnson has taken over at downing street as the new prime minister. promises the government will work flat out to get the country the leadership he says it deserves. we are going to fulfil the

repeated promises of parliament to the people. and come out of deq on october 31, i know it's our backs. i have every confidence that in 99 days' time, we will have cracked it. change in the cabinet with more than half the minister is either being sacked or resigning. the foreign secretary and leadership arrival jeremy hunt is the biggest casualty. the farmerfrom sajid jeremy hunt is the biggest casualty. the farmer from sajid javid is a new chancellor while priti patel becomes home secretary and the former brexit secretary is a new foreign secretary. boris but boris johnson's first day in office is marked by protests with one group of activists disrupting his journey to buckingham palace to be appointed pm by the queen. much more on the comings and goings later. but here's your sports news from the sports centre with lizzie.

hello, thank you very much a quick round up starting the cricket, ireland pinching themselves after embarrassing england and lloyd's today, playing only the third every task, they balled england and well kept winning all stars, all at for 85 and then managed to put on 207 at their own ranks before the 20th wicket at the day fell, joe wilson reports on an incredible day. if it's your first test match, or third ave, milk every moment. especially when everything is flowing ireland's way on their magical morning. approaching the 38th birthday, tim has been doing this from many years, but keep in mind these were some of their well kept winning squad being dismissed for nothing. they could do with arrests, 85 all out. once more at the famous old ground, one found oneself asking, did not reallyjust happen? ireland and take the lead,

and you made 55, stewart trying to remind us that he is a fastball ball or spread the ashes, took three wickets but then he came in with late fund, he was to be bowling again. just think, that to be when 37. but by going on for you celtic trying to move a step closer to a group stage at the champion meat, dairy and second round of qualifying action against the estonian side. they have now gone 2—0, christopher scored the first goal and ryan just put a penalty away so 2—0 at the moment, notjust put a penalty away so 2—0 at the moment, not just approaching put a penalty away so 2—0 at the moment, notjust approaching half time. if they win tonight, they still have another two rounds of qualifying to negotiate before they reach to all important group stages. written's golden boy of a swimming item continued his winning ways in south korea taking 50 metres breaststroke title today, finishing

shy of his own wild record and 26.6 sections, he also in gold and a 100 metre backstroke on monday meeting he has won both the titles at the past three weld combat —— world championships. each time i get more experience and to deal with under the pressure and i don't get much of that out as emotional where before i would get nervous are they now like to start up and do it and go home and that's not necessarily good or bad, but yeah, the pressure is on but i love the pressure, i love the nerves, my feet off of it. the more pressure better for me. it wasn't the only metal he went today as he along with many others clenched bronze behind australia and usa in the next four by 100 m medley relay. gary tom the second of her on the tour de france, but hasn't been able to claw back any time on the leader. the 17 stage one by eddie lee,

breaking clear in the south of france. defending champion thomas finished in appellate time, but tra nslates finished in appellate time, but translates as race leader visually and by 95 seconds. and, he will be without his team rode captain has been disqualified along with tony martin from jumbo bisno. both were thrown out following a clash near the end of this age today. that's his right hand man and he will be a big mess as thomas had a to the crucial three last days and the alps. that's all your support for now. in his first day as number ten, bracejohnson has in his first day as number ten, brace johnson has been in his first day as number ten, bracejohnson has been organising his cabinet, sajid javid is a new counsellor, pick up a death home secretary and dominic rob at the new foreign secretary. meanwhile,

prominent brexiteers, —— priti patel. they lost theirjobs... jeremy hunt has been forced out as my secretary. including philip hammond, rory stewart and david goc have all stepped down. sajid javid says he is delighted to be appointed. huge privilege to be appointed. huge privilege to be appointed and be given such an important role, and to be asked to serve as chancellor of the exchequer, and i'm very mess that's very much like a bird to working with the new team and prime minister he is already set out from his key priorities and includes making sure we lead the european union on october 31, and that we take advantage of the huge economic opportunity is lying ahead, so that's what i will focus on. lots of work to do, so if you allow me, i will get on with it. thank you very much. sajid javid that chancellor let's discuss the developments today more detail. jill is here from

the institute for a government that evening and thank you for being with us. we heard a lot of very what's that word, wide—ranging pledges from borisjohnson that word, wide—ranging pledges from boris johnson and his that word, wide—ranging pledges from borisjohnson and his speech on the steps of number ten, any suggestion on how he pays for it? not really had to be noted that the spending review deal, and when it that biggs will be how much physical headroom there is really. i mean the prime minister held out the prospect that if we left the eu with no deal, they would be that £39 billion that we are la to the eu to settle our past liabilities, which was potential i think the word he used with lubrication. that's going to be a headache for the incoming chancellor is how to manage the economy and all the spending demands that all come his way pretty quickly. let's focus on the 39 billion, preston, is he legally able to prevent or rather not refuse to get back to the

european union? the eu would say politically, that is not a down payment on a future trade bill, that's payment for past commitments we entered into. so it's possible we could say we won't pay, but the eu has made it pretty clear, that any sort of orderly brexit and or any future trade deal is contingent on unsettling fact that, so it'll be very unwise chancellor who assumes that he would not have some point be liable for the amount of money, so... so what kind of skills keeping sajid javid will bring to the job, not borisjohnson clearly sajid javid will bring to the job, not boris johnson clearly feels philip hammond did not bring? the interesting is that he was a former treasury minister so he's been there before, and he knows his way around the city he then asked banker, and he's a business secretary, so he's done quite a lot of economicjobs, so that's a huge selling point for him but clearly the big difference and sajid javid and philip hammond

is that sajid javid is prepared to contemplate that sajid javid is prepared to contemplate the uk leaving a deal on the 31st of october. blood popping —— philip hammond made it pretty clear he would do everything in his power to stop that. he was also quite relu cta nt to stop that. he was also quite reluctant to authorise the money the department says they need to prepare for a no deal exit, and i think sajid javid will be much more compliant and that regard. indeed bearing in mind, that boss has made it clear that it's got —— and you die, we are leaving october 31. michael gul could be instrumental and bad. given his new role. michael gul could be instrumental and bad. given his new rolem seems that in the cabinet office, is going to be described a overlord of no deal preparations. it's interesting because i think it's a good appointment because michael gold has been in the front line and preparing is no deal and what's

interesting about that is that he's been one of the people who's always been one of the people who's always been downplaying how easy it would been downplaying how easy it would be to get out of the eu with no deal, he knows that he'll have big impacts on farming because he is to be responsible for that. he also knows that the uk potentially is not ready and some key areas. things like export certificates for animals, they need to have border checks etc, he also understands some of the issues around the irish border. better than many of his former cabinet college as well, so it's interesting to put him in charge of no deal preparations that that's what's going to happen. charge of no deal preparations that that's what's going to happenlj mean, that's what's going to happen.” mean, boris johnson made that's what's going to happen.” mean, borisjohnson made it clear do ora mean, borisjohnson made it clear do or a guy, he's wrapping up the preparations for no deal, europe has made it clear it does not see any way every reopening the withdrawal agreement, certain renegotiations for so what you think chances are that no deal as we speak tonight? the prime minister has clearly

created a cabinet at people who will agree with him that we should contemplate no deal. so he's made it clear he does not want to be set by the same sort of internal wrangling and division theresa may's cabinet was set by. but it's not in the prime minister's get to take the uk out with no deal, parliament may wa nt to out with no deal, parliament may want to have a say. it's not immediately clear how they could stop that, but why did the things that's that the reshuffle has done is create quite of those people does a voluntary decided to leave the cabin and go to the back benches, to oppose at no deal, people i fell hammond, greg clark who waited to be sacked, some of those people are very opposed to no deal, he also has labour is sort of manoeuvring around, but remember that one thing that has not changed today for the prime minister is the parliamentary arithmetic. so he still has a wafer thin majority with support of dup,

asa by thin majority with support of dup, as a by election next week which could take that down, so he's in a very precarious parliamentary position. he may say i had a cabinet prepared to go with a no deal, but still unclear whether parliament will try to frustrate that and whether they succeed in doing so and that's what he wants to get. we shall leave it there, good to see you, jill. thank you forjoining us. going to downing street now, and the key is there. that evening to you. many of our comings and goings tonight? i think we're almost there with that cabinet appointment, we had not had them all yet, the people behind me, whatjob that you got? same job? yeah people behind me, whatjob that you got? samejob? yeah she got the people behind me, whatjob that you got? same job? yeah she got the same job shejust told got? same job? yeah she got the same job she just told us, so she staying at work and pensions, and she is really someone who has not been signed to a no deal scenario when it comes to brexit. but has recently

said she would be willing to consider it, which i think is the only reason she stayed in the cabinet, which very much is that being tonight. boris johnson bringing in people who backed him presently, he has clearly wanted loyalty after the last three years when teresa never had that, and there no discipline at all within there no discipline at all within the party or cabinet and he's also making it very clear with the appointment he has made that this is appointment he has made that this is a cabinet very serious about preparing for a no deal, i think sending a message is what he is trying to get to the eu to say, like you never believed theresa may was serious about it, but i am and that seems to be that message he is sending out. that is the causing trouble for himself putting so many of these numbers on the back benches? there is always trouble, and as always, particularly we had a divisive issue such as brexit now of course, he did not get around to smacking people because they resign, but i'm sure he would have and that's where the problem will be i don't think it's going to be with

people like liam fox, they are on—site when it comes to brexit so i cannot imagine them causing too much trouble on that issue. but the others, greg clark and fell upon them, they are going to be a problem on the back benches, if this no deal pap is one borisjohnson decides to pursue. so we could have another extraordinary situation in the autumn when it might be conservatives preparing to bow down at their own prime minister in order to stop that from happening and that's when there really is going to be trouble but i think the message coming out from notjust a cabinet that he has created tonight, but from the team he brought in many of them coming virtually from that love —— the lead bus, they were the team that delivered the referendum result and they want him to be the team to deliver brexit. michael's position, and terms of preparing for a no deal, he had thatjob to a degree

and we are talking to a gel from the institute of government, his role in the coming weeks and months, will be critical. it is, and i think what he has shown over the years as a cabinet minister as a precedent in charge of the department, he can make things happen. people will not agree with the education reforms he made, but he did it in the teeth of adversity with people fighting him all the way, he went to department of environment ali seen as a reactive environment when things go wrong, droughts and floods, christmas candle all the debts of what he did was go in there and brought forward policies had an agenda when it came to recycling plastics and made it a department ballots one at dpu and whitehall that wasn't being drowned out by brexit even though a very much brexit even though a very much brexit facing department, so he is seen as someone who can make whitehall work and pull the levers of power and get things done and

that's the position will be in the cabinet office trying to make sure no deal preparations are wrapped up and brexit ultimately gets delivered. thank you, vicki young. borisjohnson is boris johnson is committed borisjohnson is committed to taking you out, but that's not the only policy, lighthouse police care and it was an ambitious speech, let's ta ke it was an ambitious speech, let's take a look at some of that specific commitments he made. on brexit, you promised a new and better daily the eu that will maximise the opportunities and brexit, and then you prime minister says he's convinced a deal without checks at the irish but it can be made and he however he did say it's only common sense to prepare for a no—deal brexit. domestically he said work would begin to recruit 20,000 additional police officers to make the streets safer. he said work would start on 20 new hospital

upgrades and sharing additional nhs finding reached the front line. he also vowed that he would fix the crisis in social care once and for all with a clear plan to give every older person the dignity and security they deserve. let's get the beer now from the bbc‘s news correspondent starting with our education editor. today from the new prime minister, a promise to level up prime minister, a promise to level upfinding in prime minister, a promise to level up finding in schools across england, but that may not be enough to ta ke england, but that may not be enough to take the political staying out of this issue. because of rising costs, economists say it would take 3.8 billion pounds, just to reverse the cuts that have happened with my cash needed every year afterwards. yet a priority, england's further education colleges. desperate for better funding, essential to improving technical and vocational skills, for

the challenges ahead. how will he pay for the support we need for day today life as we live longer and with my disabilities? arguably, the most pressing issue awaiting the new prime minister is a crisis and adult shelter care. homes have been i'm the comp —— country, families are confronted with overstretch underfunded and unfair system. councils are lining up to tell the pm about a £3.6 billion funding gap by 2025. and how the bus is worn, a social care is not fixed, then the nhs will buckle under the strain. successive governments have failed to reform the system including the sun, the challenge is to prevent it becoming a political football has happened in the past, and i'll take careful negotiation and consensus building. sound familiar? for

business, job number one for the new pianist to restore confidence, which is taking a hail of a knock at the last three years, should i buy a new machine or hire a new printer is, confident and nasty surprises around the corner which is why most businesses no deal is on her lap, beyond brexit, it's things like infrastructure, road, rail, digital connections. what's the immigration policy going to look like and where my going to get workers in the future? the other issues that matter, the pm is going to restart that magic quality confidence. the new prime minister also that first lord of treasury, had the chequebook out even before he stepped into number ten. billions more for hospitals, schools, social care and also for police officers, less emphasis on those tax cuts he promised during the tory leadership campaign. all of this, pales in significance compared to the brexit

policy. he needs to get britain no—deal brexit battle ready, but it's not entirely and his hands. he needs thousands of businesses to sign up and to step up, but the power of the prime minister of the pulpit could be limited even for a man at his press base —— persuasive capacity. earlier in the bay, trees and they took part in her final prime minister as questions in the house of commons, before going to buckingham palace to formally opera her resignation to the queen from making a journey she made this her final statement outside number ten. i repeat my warm congratulations to boris on winning the conservative leadership election. i wish —— hidden and government every good fortune in the months and years ahead. their successes will be our countries successes and i hope there will be many. their achievements will be many. their achievements will build on the work at nearly a

decade of conservative or conservative led government. during that time, our economy has been restored, at public services reformed, and our values defended on the world stage. of course, much remains to be done. the immediate priority being to complete our exit from the eu, in a way that works for the whole united kingdom. with success and that task, it can, new beginning for our country. a national renewal that could move that beyond the current and past into a bright future of the british people deserve. theresa may there and herfinal speech people deserve. theresa may there and her final speech at number ten. other top stories, tomorrow could be the hottest day ever on record in the hottest day ever on record in the uk, the forecasters say temperatures reaching 39 degrees in london. beating the previous record set in kent back in 2003. it comes after thunderstorms swept across much of the uk last night with nearly 50,000

lightning strikes reported. research published today in the journal nature suggests that the current warming rate is higher than observed previously and scientists say the human influence on global warming is no longer in doubt. our science correspondent rebecca morelle reports. another day of blazing temperatures across some parts of the uk. in birmingham, a chance to cool off from the scorching sun. in leicester, it's not exactly weather for ducks. but these children are having fun in the fountain. and in oxford's parks the shade provided some respite from the heat. the sun has been welcomed by some. but these conditions can be harmful. the latest summer statistics show that, in england, 3000 people were admitted to hospital with heat —related problems. so, how do you stay cool and keep safe in the hot weather? dr raj patel is a gp and deputy medical director at nhs england. normally when it is hot you think about opening up the windows and doors, but they shouldn't do

that, should they? that's right. we should learn from our european neighbours. understand that, in the midday sun, they actually close the curtains and close the windows when it is hotter outside, and you retain the coolness in the house. avoiding being dehydrated is also really important, isn't it? that's crucial, yes. you don't want to get dehydrated. so drinking plenty of water is a really important tip. and is itjust water you could drink, or could you have a cup of tea, for example? yes, tea would contribute to your fluids, but it will not cool you down as many people think it will. and the thing to avoid the most is alcohol, because it makes you lose water and it makes you more dehydrated. one of the difficult things during a heatwave is actually getting to sleep, because it's so hot at night. i have heard that you can do things like putting your sheets and pyjamas in the freezer, or fill a hot water bottle up with icy cold water. would that make any difference? i can see why putting ice cold water into a hot water bottle would help you stay cooler, longer, but i'm not sure that the sheets will stay cool for very long, but if it is enough to get you to sleep, why not? in europe, belgium has had

its hottest day in recorded history. in one town, the national record was broken twice with temperatures reaching 39.9 celsius. back in the uk, tomorrow is going to get even hotter, possibly breaking all—time records. research just published shows the current rate of global heating is higher than has ever been recorded before, and climate change is set to make heatwaves more frequent. dealing with them is something we are going to have to get used to. rebecca morelle, bbc news. in the united states, the former special counsel robert mueller has been giving evidence to congress about the findings of his investigation into russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. the questions focussed on the actions of president trump and his campaign, but mr mueller didn't expand much beyond his report.

mr mueller was asked if the president could be prosecuted after he leaves office and the former special counsel said he could. our north america correspondent laura trevelyan explains. federal crimes there is a statute of limitation of five years normally, and we would be talking here about federal crime and obstruction of justice. this of donald trump are to wina justice. this of donald trump are to win a second term, then he could not be obstructed or pursued for obstruction of justice, be obstructed or pursued for obstruction ofjustice, you might assume because of the five—year statute of limitations, by robert mother would not be dried on that would not come to a definitive conclusion, but this is also come up in another setting as well when it comes to michael kony going to jail for paying out the swimming who claimed they had affairs with donald trump, he is implicated in the crime, he has not been indicted but again there is a five—year statute of limitations for this concept crimes, so seems an open question as to whether in the next campaign democrats will try to say he is running against a gel against —— essentially what they're trying to

set up in the hearing. laura in washington. the ministry ofjustice has placed a temporary ban on sending teenagers to feltham young offender institution in west london. the decision comes after inspectors identified what's been described as an "extraordinary" decline in safety and care there. the chief inspector of prisons, peter clarke, says some of the boys, who're aged 15 to 18, have been kept in their cells for 22 hours at a time. reports of racism in english football rose by 43% last season. the anti discrimination charity kick it out believed the rise can be attributed to brexit. reports of faith based discrimination including islamophobia and anti semitism rose by 75%, a higher percentage than any other form of abuse. passengers on a eurostar train from brussels to london have been caught up in an emergency stop. their train came to a halt earlier in belgium, leading to an evacuation for hundreds of people.

time for your weathering is. hello, extremely hot weather on the way tomorrow, so hot it could challenge the all—time uk temperature record currently standing at 38.5 celsius, thursday afternoon and we could potentially see temperatures going up potentially see temperatures going up to 39. particularly around content and greater london. those are the hotspots. remainder of the night largely dry with a few showers from time to time in northern ireland but a warm night for sleeping temperatures in the low 20s across private england and wales and dripping down into the teens, must co mforta ble dripping down into the teens, must comfortable weather across the northwest of the uk, taking us to tell morrow plenty of sunshine, the wind drying up hot airfrom spain and france into southeast england, he showers for northeast ireland and later in the day elsewhere, but it's all about temperatures tomorrow

seeing highs hitting an incredible 39 celsius in southeast england. hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. borisjohnson has boris johnson has made borisjohnson has made his first speech as british prime minister. after three years of unfounded self—doubt, it is time to change the record. to self—doubt, it is time to change the record . to recovers self—doubt, it is time to change the record. to recovers are national and historic role as an enterprise outward looking and truly global britain. he also said he will succeed where theresa may fell. we're going to fulfil the repeated promises of parliament to the people can come out of the eu on october the 31st. . he has been making
