borisjohnson says he will not undergo what he calls a �*psychological transformation�* of his character. speaking to the bbc, the prime minister insisted that policy was more important than personality. it's been a particularly bruising week for mrjohnson, after the conservatives lost two by—elections, before the resignation of his party chairman. this report from our political correspondent, tony bonsignore, contains some flash photography. the war in ukraine, inflation, the threat of a global recession, there is plenty for commonwealth leaders in rwanda to ponder. but, for boris johnson, domestic politics is never far away. this week's by—election defeats in wakefield and tiverton and honiton have spooked some tory mps and oliver �*s resignation as party chairman has, yet again, thrown the spotlight on the prime

minster�*s leadership. some think his behaviour is the problem and want a change of direction. n behaviour is the problem and want a change of direction.— change of direction. i remember he sat in his letter _ change of direction. i remember he sat in his letter cannot _ change of direction. i remember he sat in his letter cannot be - change of direction. i remember he sat in his letter cannot be business| sat in his letter cannot be business as usual. i'm not hearing you say i have had with the voters are sad and i'm going to change. same acts are what we are going to change, even if you want me, sorry, let's be absolutely clear, michelle. if you're saying you want me to undergo some kind of psychological transformation, you know, ithink that our listeners would know that is not going to happen. it that our listeners would know that is not going to happen. ii the that our listeners would know that is not going to happen. if the prime minister won't _ is not going to happen. if the prime minister won't change _ is not going to happen. if the prime minister won't change his _ is not going to happen. if the prime minister won't change his ways, - is not going to happen. if the prime i minister won't change his ways, some in his party, including veteran tory mp andrew ridgeon, are considering trying to force through a change to the leadership rules so the prime minister can face another no—confidence vote soon rather than waiting another year as is currently the case. if those threats are meant to intimidate, they are not working. i think probably, voters were really fed up with hearing a lot of conversation about me in relation to

things that they thought i should not have been doing and stuff that i got wrong when what they wanted to hear about was what we were doing for them. hear about was what we were doing forthem. forthe hear about was what we were doing for them. for the country. and for their lives. and so that the lesson i take is that we have just got to get the focus on all the things that we are doing to take the country forward. ., ,., ., , forward. labour, though, is convinced — forward. labour, though, is convinced the _ forward. labour, though, is convinced the problems - forward. labour, though, is convinced the problems run forward. labour, though, is- convinced the problems run deeper. this is not a problem with boris johnson — this is not a problem with boris johnson. this is a problem with the tory party~ — johnson. this is a problem with the tory party. regardless, labourwill be ready— tory party. regardless, labourwill be readyin— tory party. regardless, labourwill be ready to beat the tory party, whoever — be ready to beat the tory party, whoever is _ be ready to beat the tory party, whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda, whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda. it _ whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda. it is _ whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda, it is on _ whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda, it is on to _ whoever is at the head of it. after rwanda, it is on to germany - whoever is at the head of it. he rwanda, it is on to germany and spain for borisjohnson full stop he will be hoping his time on the world stage will strengthen his position back home. the foreign secretary liz truss says she has absolute confience in borisjohnson following the by—election losses. she's been speaking to out deputy africa editor anne soy at the commonwealth heads of government meeting in the rwandan capital kigali.

i have absolute confidence in the prime minister. he is doing a fantasticjob. he has led on delivering on breaks it, helping britain recover from covid, delivering on breaks it, helping britain recoverfrom covid, we were the first country to fully develop the first country to fully develop the vaccine and get it rolled out and now he is doing a brilliantjob of supporting ukraine in the appalling war against russia. find appalling war against russia. and the conservatives have just lost two important by—elections. should he be considering his position? as well? you'll make incumbent governments do tend to lose by—elections. that's not a predictor of the future. what we are making sure is that we are getting the economy going, we are helping the economy grow so people have more opportunities, morejobs in the future and that is secure the next election. and the migrants deal which has been signed between the uk and the rwandan government has come under a lot of scrutiny, even here

in rwanda. and your government has said that it remains undeterred, and will continue with this but there have been criticisms, even here in orlando, that, you know, the record of the rwandan government is not great on human rights, tops and reports on the british british government have also, you know, raised questions about media freedom and democracy here. does that change now? ~ . , and democracy here. does that change now? ~ ., , ., now? well, we are very determined to follow through — now? well, we are very determined to follow through on _ now? well, we are very determined to follow through on this _ now? well, we are very determined to follow through on this migration - follow through on this migration partnership. it is very important we break the business model of these appalling people traffickers who are putting peoples lives at risk, particularly in the english channel. in this partnership that we have developed with rwanda benefits both countries working very closely together and have been very good discussion when i was here with the rwandan foreign minister about how we can continue to develop the partnership between our two nations. can you confirm of children will be

celebrating the big pride weekend here in oslo and then a man came up toa bar, here in oslo and then a man came up to a bar, he was carrying a bag. in that bag he had two guns, one automatic gun and one handgun and he started shooting randomly at people. this is a very crowded area in downtown central oslo. just a few minutes away from the parliament and the government buildings, also close to the court buildings and one of these buyers, as i say, is a gay bar. always pretty crowded with people and especially now because of these pride celebrations. and two people are confirmed killed and 21 injured. ten of these are badly injured. ten of these are badly injured. he was taken by police after a fairly short time and has been questioned, but he has not said anything to the police just yet.

memories of another killer are obviously going to come following this attack, i mean, he killed 70 people. what sort of reaction has beenin people. what sort of reaction has been in norway to this? just people. what sort of reaction has been in norway to this?— people. what sort of reaction has been in norway to this? just a half an hour ago. _ been in norway to this? just a half an hour ago, after _ been in norway to this? just a half an hour ago, after the _ been in norway to this? just a half an hour ago, after the streets - been in norway to this? just a half| an hour ago, after the streets here in central oslo, i saw people on the way down to the london pub which is the name of this gay bar. carrying both of these rainbow flags to celebrate pride, also flowers. so i suspect the amount of flowers outside their will grow. pro—gay campaigners are now 15, 20 minutes ago, said two people, although it is not going to be a parade, but do go out, celebrate, as if it was a regular weekend because of what has happened. regular weekend because of what has ha ened. ~ ., ., regular weekend because of what has ha- -ened. ~ ., ., ., , regular weekend because of what has ha -ened. ~ ., ., ., , ~ happened. what are the gun laws like in norwa ? happened. what are the gun laws like in norway? they _ happened. what are the gun laws like in norway? they are _ happened. what are the gun laws like in norway? they are very _ happened. what are the gun laws like in norway? they are very strict - happened. what are the gun laws like in norway? they are very strict so - in norway? they are very strict so it is not very _ in norway? they are very strict so it is not very easy _ in norway? they are very strict so it is not very easy to _ in norway? they are very strict so it is not very easy to get - in norway? they are very strict so it is not very easy to get hand - in norway? they are very strict so it is not very easy to get hand or i it is not very easy to get hand or get hold of a handgun and certainly

right to abortion. but others celebrate. anti—abortion activists gathered outside america's supreme court, happy to see the back of a legal precedent that had been in place for 50 years. we were called for this moment. and this is a heavy responsibility, to make abortion unthinkable and illegal throughout our nation. to ensure no woman stands alone in a post—roe america, to be the post—roe generation! cheering. elizabeth made the decision to terminate a pregnancy after finding out her twins wouldn't survive outside the womb. she later had another abortion when the pregnancy put her life at risk. the reality of it actually being overturned and seeing a number of states already where, as of this minute, abortion access is denied and illegal, i feel pretty numb and pretty angry about that and, truly, i feel a little bit helpless.

while some states say they will keep full abortion rights, 13 have trigger laws which mean nearly all abortions are now instantly banned. although, the vast majority would allow abortions if the mother's life is at risk. others are expected to either introduce new restrictions or resurrect pre—roe bans. and in states where opinions on abortions are closely split, the legality of the procedure could be determined on an election by election basis or via legal battles. critics of the decision say it's an injustice and, without plans to support those who are pregnant, will impact the poorest in society in a country, that, for the most part, has no universal health care or paid family leave. the harm is endless. what this means to women is such an insult. it's a slap in the face to women

about using their own judgment, to make their own decisions about their reproductive freedom. singing. # jesus loves the little children...# _ but, within the us, this is only the beginning, and while some worry more rights could be rolled back, others feeljustice has finally been served. francis reed, bbc news. the headlines on bbc news. borisjohnson says policy is more important than personality — as he faces renewed calls to quit from conservative backbenchers after the party lost two by—elections police in norway say they're treating a shooting at a gay nightclub as a �*terrorist�* attack. america wakes up to inflamed divisions over abortion after the supreme court overturns a woman's constitutional right to the procedure.

for people in afghanistan, pain is unrelenting. war, hunger and now an earthquake. eight—year—old shakrina was rescued with injuries to her leg when her house collapsed. her elder sister died. in the next bed, their mother, meera. "we were under the debris until the morning, when some people pulled us out. they took us to a nearby clinic. i asked them, "where is my daughter?" they told me she had died," she said. "we are poor people. we have debts and now we've lost everything." bibi havar lost 18 members of herfamily.

three of her sons were among them. both she and her daughter have multiple fractures. "my heart is in pain. when i go back from here, my children won't be there. it makes me so sad." on the day after the earthquake, 75 patients were brought here — more than the capacity of the hospital that was already struggling to treat regular illnesses. stretched even before the earthquake hit, they're trying to do their best here, but even this main provincial hospital doesn't have the equipment to treat critical patients, so those who had injuries to their spine or their brain, they've had to send them to other facilities, which means people who have already spent hours travelling to this hospital then had to make another long journey to get any treatment at all. i asked the taliban's health minister whether they had got the international support they'd

been asking for. we have received some humanitarian aid and assistance from the neighbouring countries like iran, pakistan, india and some of the arab countries. so are waiting for our partners and different countries around the world to when and how they can provide humanitarian aid and assistance. but many would argue that the taliban has not lived up to its commitments on human rights or women's rights. how can the world then recognise this government, and in situations like this directly offer you assistance or money? i think there is some miscommunication between the international partners, they still cannot understand the people, and some statements of the taliban. ordinary afghans are caught in the politics.

this labourer is trying to cope with the grief of losing his wife and a fear of the future. "my family and i worked so hard to make our house, now it's gone," he said.
