this is bbc news. i'm ben brown. the headlines at 11am... jeremy corbyn apologises for his part in labour's performance at the general election — as wigan mp, lisa nandy — becomes one of those hoping to succeed him as party leader. the reason that i'm thinking about it is because we just had the most shattering defeat where you really felt, in towns like mine, like the earth was quaking and we've watched the entire labour base just crumble beneath our feet. as boris johnson prepares for thurday‘s queen speech, the government is to enshrine in law, a commitment to raise spending on the nhs in england. the national health service is the number one focus of this government when it comes to domestic policy.

nicola sturgeon renews her call for a second referendum on scottish independence, saying the people of scotland mustn't be kept in the union — against their will. you cannot just lock you cannotjust lock us in a cupboard and turn the key and hope that everything goes away. in other news... a british man has been killed and his son wounded, after being shot during a suspected robbery, outside a five—star hotel in buenos aires. the death toll from new zealand's white island volcano eruption rises to 18, after an australian dies in hospital. 20 survivors remain in critical condition. and coming up at 11:30am — dateline london takes an in—depth look at the immediate, and longer—term, implications of the uk's election.

jeremy corbyn has apologised for his part in labour's worst general election defeat since the 1930s. immediately after the vote, he faced criticism for not saying sorry to labour mps who'd lost their seats. but in a letter to the sunday mirror, he said...

the shadow chancellor john mcdonnell also apologised for the loss — but also blamed the media portrayal ofjeremy corbyn. it is on me, it is on me, let's take it on the chin, i own this disaster, so i apologise to all those wonderful labour mps who have lost their seats who have worked so hard, i apologise to all our campaigners, but most of all i apologise to those people who desperately need a labour government. and, yes, if anyone is to blame, it is me — full stop. we have to recognise... i think it was brexit that did it. we were in this horns of a dilemma, we couldn't move either way, or if we did and we tried to compromise, it didn't work. that is the first thing. the second — we have to recognise that, look, the media did a number onjeremy for four years solid every day. let me just finish this. every attack, every smear was going on. and they transposed someone who i know as a man of honesty and principle into someone demonised

in a way no other politician on this scale has been done before, and i deeply regret that. john mcdonnell they are talking to andrew mark this morning. ——andrew marr. our political correspondent tony bonsignore told me that despite mr corbyn's apology — the labour leader insisted the party had got some things right. there is not much apologising going on. he said that labour won the argument when it comes to climate change and austerity. he says the ma nifesto change and austerity. he says the manifesto was popular but labour we re manifesto was popular but labour were hit hard by brexit. he also attacked the media as well for the ferocious attacks on him personally. you can read this as a rallying cry to corbynite supporters to what comes next, about the future direction of the party. what he has had to say today hasn't gone down well in some quarters. jess phillips

today, who will throw her hat into today, who will throw her hat into to become labour leader, we think, says that too many people are obsessed with the party rather than winning power. then anotherfigure today, lisa nandy, very popular in some parts of the party, she has also written an article that labour has lost touch with the day—to—day worries of voters. she has also spoken to the bbc in the last half—an—hour or so and this is what she said when asked if she was considering standing as leader. well, the honest answer is that i'm seriously thinking about it. the reason i'm thinking about it is because we've just had the most shattering defeat, where you really felt in towns like mine that the earth was quaking. and we've watched the entire labour base just crumble beneath our feet. i think we need to think seriously now about, first of all, how you bring those lifelong labour voters, who felt that they not only couldn't vote labour, but actually, in many instances, chose the tories, how you bring labour home to them. and i also think we have to think

seriously about how we rebuild that coalition that has propelled us into power through times in the last hundred years. ——three times. the lewishams and leighs and how you speak for both. i would imagine many labour mps will throw their hat into the ring. the leadership process has already began in trying to agree what went wrong last week. boris johnson is already back at work and some pretty radical plans the government is thinking about. next week will be huge in parliament. all the mps are going in tomorrow and tuesday to be sworn in. thursday is the first really big day for this government because it is the queen's speech. it is the chance for them to set out what their priorities are beyond brexit. the cabinet office minister michael gove was interviewed this morning about that and this is what he had to say about what we might expect.

well, i think what we can expect is a recognition that the national health service is the number one focus of this government, when it comes to domestic policy. we need to make sure the national health service is properly funded and we will be bringing forward legislation to ensure that there is an nhs funding guarantee. that's the first and most important thing. and then alongside that, we also need to tackle an economic problem that this country has. it has been the case in the past that the areas of highest productivity in the uk economy have tended to be in the south and east of england. we need to make sure that economic opportunity is more equally spread across the whole country and we need to invest in the infrastructure and also the improvements to skills and education necessary in order to make sure opportunity is more equal. so michael gove they're reaching out to those former labour voters who voted conservative last thursday.

beyond that we will have a very busy few weeks of the government is trying to get brexit legislation through parliament in time for that key dates, january 31. the latest on what the government hopes will be the final brexit day. beyond that there is talk about a major rethink of the way that government works. we know that is a big pet project of boris johnson's special adviser dominic cummings. there was also in the aftermath of the election a lot of talk about scotland following the snp's thumping victory there. nicola sturgeon has been talking today. there is too political momentum is clashing really when it comes here. there was honestly a great result for the snp, there was honestly a great result forthe snp, a there was honestly a great result for the snp, a very positive result for the snp, a very positive result for them with 48 out of 59 mps. they wa nt to for them with 48 out of 59 mps. they want to push for another independence referendum sooner rather than later. michael gove was asked about that in the same interview and he was very blunt. will there be an independence

referendum in scotland in this government? no, he said. that was then put to the snp's leader nicola sturgeon and here is what she had to say about that. well, that won't hold. and if he thinks that... actually, i said this to him on friday night on the telephone. if he thinks saying no is the end of the matter, then he's going to find himself completely and utterly wrong. and, you know, he cannot... as i was saying yesterday, and, again, it's quite a fundamental point of democracy, you cannot hold scotland in the union against its will. you cannot just lock us in a cupboard and turn the key and hope that everything goes away. if the union, the united kingdom, is to continue, then it can only be by consent. and if borisjohnson is confident in the case for the union, then he should be confident enough to make that case and allow people to decide. and the problem for nicola sturgeon of course is that the power to grant another referendum lies with boris johnson and the government in

westminster. that is shaping up to be an almighty battle over the next few years. that was our political correspondent there. a british man has been killed and his son injured after being shot during a suspected robbery in argentina. the men, aged 50 and 28, were injured as they fought back against a pair of robbers who ambushed them outside a five—star hotel in buenos aires. police are reportedly investigating whether it was a random attack, or if their taxi had been tailed from the airport. here's our reporter greg mckenzie on the story. the foreign office has confirmed that they are supporting the family of two british nationals, who were shot in buenos aires yesterday afternoon in broad daylight. this took place just outside a hotel, a luxury hotel, in puerto madero region, an affluent region of buenos aires. cctv footage is clear as day, you can see the two men, a father and son, trying to fight off their attackers when they're being robbed. sadly they were both shot

and taken to hospital. it was there where the father was pronounced dead a short time later. now, the traveljournalist, simon calder says these attacks are all too common in south american countries. this is an awful tragedy, i'm afraid that crime, particularly aimed at people who are regarded as well—to—do tourists or business travellers, is all too common. notjust in buenos aires, argentina, but elsewhere, particularly in the big south american cities. and the advice, simply, myself being targeted is either run away if you possibly can, or just hand over whatever it is they want. awful situation. argentina in general is a very friendly, very safe, very welcoming country, which at this time of year, is a joy to travel in. but, unfortunately, like elsewhere in latin america, there are criminals who will, i'm afraid, use of violence

if they feel they need to. last year, more than 110,000 british nationals visited argentina and relatively trouble—free. but what the advice has always been on the ground in buenos aires is that if you are approached by a gang or individuals carrying weapons, you simply don't resist. you hand over your belongings. now, of course, there is a police investigation and they're trying to determine whether these two british nationals were followed from the airport to the hotel, or whether this was simply a random attack. greg mckenzie reporting there from the foreign office. police investigating the death of a 15—year—old boy in cheshire have charged a teenager with murder. the body of alex rodda was discovered on friday morning. matthew mason, who's 18, has been remanded in custody and will appear before magistrates on monday.

the police watchdog is investigating after a man was shot by officers in hull in the early hours. humberside police say they were called to reports of a man with a firearm. assistant chief constable paul anderson said the man was shot by police during the incident and is currently in hospital in a critical condition. there were no other injuries sustained by anyone. an australian injured in last week's volcanic eruption on white island in new zealand has died, bringing the official death toll to 18. the victim, who has not been identified, died in hospital in sydney. around 20 people remain in intensive care with severe burns. rescue teams returned to white island earlier today but were unable to locate the bodies of two people still missing. our correspondent phil mercer has the latest. 18 people now have been confirmed dead in the disaster that struck on monday at white island in the bay of plenty just off new zealand's north island.

those recovery teams returned to the volcanic island today, on sunday, to once again look for two bodies. there are two more victims who have been unaccounted for. authorities have been working on the theory that one of those bodies may well be near the crater, and another was apparently seen in the water 24 hours after the eruption. on friday, recovery teams brought out six bodies, but the search goes on for those two others. the search includes people being flown to the island to carry out this painstaking search. this it is a very risky environment still. there is a risk of further eruptions and police and navy divers have been in the contaminated water off white island, searching unsuccessfully for one of those two remaining victims. and there are plans for a minute silence to remember the victims of this disaster?

at 11 minutes past two in the afternoon tomorrow in new zealand, the prime ministerjacinda ardern is hoping new zealand will pause for one minute, to remember those victims. at the moment, 18 people have been confirmed to have died. about 20 people remain in intensive care here in australia and new zealand. some of those survivors have the most appalling injuries, suffering burns of up to 90% of their bodies. also, internal burns too. it is a great challenge for skilled professionals in new zealand, and australia, to keep those people alive and help them recover. on monday, just after two o'clock in the afternoon, new zealand and people elsewhere will pause to remember a tragedy that took place exactly one week ago when that minute silence is observed.

phil mercer reporting from sydney. the time is 11:15am. the headlines on bbc news... the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, has apologised to supporters, for his party's heavy defeat in the general election. as boris johnson prepares for thurday‘s queen speech, for ——thursday's queen speech, the government is to enshrine in law, a commitment to raise spending on the nhs in england. nicola sturgeon has renewed her call for a second referendum on scottish independence, saying the people of scotland mustn't be kept in the union — against their will. sport, and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. hi holly. hi, ben. liverpool are en route to qatar for the club world cup, as jurgen klopp contends with another injury concern going in to the tournament. georginio wijnaldum limped off during yesterday's 2—0 win over watford in the premier league and could be unavailable for their game against monterray on wednesday.

however he has been named in the 20—man squad heading to the middle east. dejan lovren has already been ruled out and klopp has raised concerns the pitch in qatar could lead to further injuries to his already stretched squad. obviously i think it is raining there. the one pitch we are playing all on. sensationally organised. all of the games on one pitch and it is raining. i'm not sure if people in qatar are really used to a lot of rain. we will see what the picture is like but that could be a bit of a problem. you can understand his concern. liverpool now have a ten—point lead over leicester in the premier league after they dropped points at home to norwich. after teemu pukki shocked leicester with the opening goal — their lead only lasted 12 minutes. jamie vardy thought he'd got the equaliser — it would've been his 17th goal in all competitions this season! but in the end it went down

as an own goal after keeper tim krul pushed it into his own net. meanwhile, west ham moved four points clear of the relegation zone with a vital win over southampton. manuel pellegrini's side ran out 1—0 winners in what the manager described afterwards as an important victory. three matches in the premier league this afternoon. later arsenal host manchester city who'll be looking to come back from last week's derby defeat... while united will be feeling buoyant from that result when they host everton at old trafford — looking for a win to close in on the top four. and wolves are at home to a newly reinvigorated tottenham who have won three of their four premier league games underjose mourinho. i want to work. i'm going to have time to work. which, until now i don't have. i complain every day with my staff, the frustration of, i want to do a certain kind of training, ijust can't do it. it's really frustrating, because...

i love the preseason to work and i don't have preseason. rugby union, and saracens' champions cup win over munster was marred by a brawl involving almost 30 players sarries head coach mark mccall claimed a comment to their hooker jamie george prompted the fight while munster say they don't know what caused it. the english side's15—6 victory though means that their defence of the title is still alive and they can still make the quarterfinals. in darts, raymond van barneveld's career has ended with a shock defeat in the first round at the world championships. the five time world champion was beaten by darin young 3—1 — leaving the crowds at alexandra palace in stunned silence. it brings to an end one of the most decorated careers in darts. in golf, the us team dominated the singles as they beat the international team 16—14 in melbourne to win an eighth successive presidents cup. the visitors had trailed 10—8

going into the final day, but captain tiger woods led by example as he beat abraham ancer 3&2 in the first match. the americans went on to win eight of the 12 points with matt kuchar sealing the victory. ahead of the main event later, it's been announced that marathon runner eliud kipchoge has been voted bbc sport personality‘s world sport star of the year after winning an online public vote. the kenyan runner became the first person to run a marathon in under two hours in october. in winning the award, kipchoge beat off competition from, among others, gymnast simone biles and south africa rugby captain siya kolisi. and you can watch the bbc sports personality of the year programme from 7pm on bbc one this evening. the bbc sport website will build up to the show from five o clock. that's all the sport for now. i'll have more in the next hour.

thank you very much indeed. un climate talks that were due to end on friday have continued through the night in madrid, as negotiators try to patch up significant rifts over emissions cuts. the minister leading the discussions has appealed for flexibility, adding that a deal is close. major polluters, including the us, brazil, china and australia are being accused of frustrating some of the negotiations. our environment correspondent matt mcgrath is at the conference in madrid and has been following the developments almost every country in the world signed the paris climate agreement in the french capital about four years ago. one of the terms of that particular pact was that every country should update their national plans on cutting carbon by the end of 2020, at the end of next year. all those countries have come to this particular cop, or conference of the parties, here in madrid to work out the wrinkles in that plan, to work out the timetable, when they are going to submit their plans, and to whom. but they have run into major difficulties here, because a lot of the countries, the european union and small island

states and many others, feel that what is on the table is not ambitious enough. they feel the science is very clear, the message from the streets is very clear. countries need to be doing more, and what they have seen written down here, they are not very happy about. other countries, like the united states, australia, japan, india and others, feel there is too much pressure in the plans at the moment and they're objecting to those. so they have run into a kind of a stalemate here. on other issues, they've run into problems. there is a big question mark over carbon markets. lots of countries, including brazil, want to bring forward carbon credits from the past, and use them in the future. lots of people here object to that, feeling that it would devalue the whole idea of a market. there's also problems over the issue of loss and damage, the idea of compensating small island states for the damages endured by climate change that they can link to climate change and they‘ re looking for compensation for that. they're trying to agree a compromise on that. all of the parties feel here that they are very far apart

on a range of issues, and many of them, it has to be said, blame the chilean presidency. chile is the country tasked with bringing everyone together. the meeting isn't being held in chile but in madrid, because of civil unrest in that country, and many people feel here that the chileans haven't done a fantasticjob. they still hope that they can get some plans together and work on a compromise, but the worry is that if they don't, these talks would end in failure, the conference might be suspended and would have to be resumed at some point in the new year. matt mcgrath in madrid. cruelty—free fake leathers aren't always the best choice for the environment, as they usually involve some kind of plastic. but now a bag design firm in the east of england thinks they've found a more environmentally friendly option, using pineapples. lee madden reports. picking pineapples can be arduous, heavy work, often with little reward. the price paid for each individual fruit is a fraction of a penny. the leaves from pineapple plants

are usually thrown away. a use for them is now being found, turning the leaves into fabric which provides some extra income for workers. i think everybody was quite surprised that fabric was made of pineapple, because it does not smell like pineapple. it's not spiky, and it's got a nice texture to it. so, yes, it is quite an unusual thing to be working with. to make the fabric, fibres are extracted from the leaves. these get sent from the philippines to spain and once there, machinists complete the process of turning them into a material, which has been named pinatex. an online shop based in cambridge has begun using pinatex to create handbag satchels and purses. i don't think we are jumping on any form of trend, i think it's a personal responsibility to look at how we consume products across—the—board, notjust

in fashion and that something that we would like to help provide an option for our clients and customers. the vegan label means it does not use or contain any animal products. people are, you know, loving that it is vegan. it is amazing. really, really pleased that something else is being used and it is so easy to work with, really. and these are the finished bags. if you want one, they will set you back around £137. the texture is slightly crinkled, not too different to some leathers. as manufacturers become more confident using the material, it is hoped more items will be made out of it in future, making use of pineapple leaves that were otherwise destined to be wasted. what a night it was in the strictly ballroom — with a new champion couple lifting the glitterball trophy.

former soap star kelvin fletcher, who joined the show as a last—minute replacement, won the public vote with his partner oti mabuse. our entertainment correspondent, lizo mzimba was watching the action. kelvin and oti! a last—minute replacement after another contestant was injured, kelvin fletcher said he was honoured to have won strictly, with his dance partner oti mabuse. it's such a privilege to be here. i think this show represents everything that is amazing in this country. i think the people personify what is great, it'sjust been an absolute privilege to... you're emotional! cheering. # ain't no sunshine when she's gone. ..# the result was decided purely by public vote, though the judges did have their say, describing their rumba as "sensual and romantic". # ain't no sunshine when she's gone # and she's always gone too long

towards sea level across north—east england. this was the scene first thing this morning in redcar and cleveland. it does mean that for some it's been an icy start to the day but it is a day of sunshine and blustery showers. the satellite picture shows the extent of the shower clouds that we see moving in across the uk with the next batch of shower clouds waiting to move in. the showers most frequent across wales and southern coastal counties of england although they will merge together to give some lengthy spells of rain through scotland's central belt so may be still a bit of winteriness up over the hills. there will be some sunshine between the showers, some areas might completely miss the showers, perhaps parts of nottinghamshire, lincolnshire and eastern areas of scotland seeing some reasonable weather. chilly in the north, temperature 3—5, most of england and wales seven — 9 degrees. the winds perhaps making it feel a bit cooler than that. overnight tonight, the south—westerly winds continue to drag in showers, particularly around our western and southern coasts and hills. temperatures in england and wales three to six but for the far north of england,

northern ireland and scotland, it's colder, cold enough for some patches of frost and therefore a risk of a few icy patches through the night. the week ahead we start off with that sunshine and showers theme, quite cool weather and dry on wednesday before milder air works in later in the week with outbreaks of more general rain on the way. monday, sunshine and showers once again that the showers will be less frequent with the wind is not as strong and bigger gaps in between the showers, more in the way of sunshine. the exception to that theme will be in western scotland where the showers merged together to give longer spells of rain, yes. cold enough for some snow in the scottish hills as well, things could turn quite icy here. monday night and tuesday, this area of low pressure pushes north out to france, bringing rain to central and eastern areas of england. west of england, wales, northern ireland and scotland, sunshine and showers, although the showers will be fewer and further between and more dry weather around. but it will be cold for most, temperatures four or five celsius widely, 8 or 9 with the rain and cloud across east anglia

and south—east england. beyond that, it turns milder and with the milder air arriving, it turns wetter with temperatures up to 12 in london on thursday. hello and welcome to dateline london. i'm carrie gracie. this week... "let the healing begin" — so said borisjohnson on friday, as he celebrated the scale of his emphatic electoral victory. but the other big winner was scotland's first minister, and healing is not the first thing on her mind. today, we devote the entire programme to the immediate
