from downing street — with boris johnson saying he'll keep on with the job, despite more resignations. we've seen a growing number of government ministers and aides resign over the course of the morning — their numbers stand at 18 at the latest count, with many expressing unhappiness at the prime minister's style of leadership and concerns that the government's work is being overshadowed by questions about his integrity. but borisjohnson at prime minister's questions in the last hour insisted he will keep working with the job with his new team in place, after rishi sunak quit last night as chancellor and sajid javid as health secretary. in the last few minutes, sajid javid told the commons the public expects all politicians to maintain honesty and integrity in whatever we do. our first report is from our political correspondent, jonathan blake.

let's cross to our political correspondent, who is over in the commons. it has been quite hard to keep up with everything this morning. when we look at some of the comments we are hearing in the commons in the last hour, what an extraordinary day! it commons in the last hour, what an extraordinary day!— extraordinary day! it is. it is auoin extraordinary day! it is. it is going from _ extraordinary day! it is. it is going from worse _ extraordinary day! it is. it is going from worse to - extraordinary day! it is. it is going from worse to worse l extraordinary day! it is. it is. going from worse to worse to extraordinary day! it is. it is - going from worse to worse to even worse for borisjohnson. this morning the steady stream of resignations, ministers and aides deciding enough was enough. then three mps stood up and told boris johnson to his base at prime minister's questions that enough was enough. and the former health secretary, sajid javid, using the exact words during the excuse creating statement on why he had decided to resign saying enough was enough. —— the excruciating statement. we heard borisjohnson says he wants to stay on, he wants

to tap this out. he argues he has a personal mandate from the electorate from the general election in 2019. i have got to say, the mood in the conservative party has changed dramatically. it feels to me the party has now turned its back on the prime minister. watching pmqs, there are almost no cheers from the backbenches. almost nobody, apart from a few loyal cabinet ministers, were cheering on the prime minister. there are discussions ongoing as we speak about ways to force the prime minister out, potentially a confidence vote, another one in the next few days if the rules on that are changed. borisjohnson has defied political gravity before, he has turned things around in the past. standing him in parliament, speaking to tory mps, watching what is going on in the governing party at the moment it is very hard to see that happening. an increasing number

zahawi is a nest building at work. he has been dropping some hints in a morning round of interviews that there may be a difference in approach in terms of tax and spend policy. rishi sunak in his resignation letter said not only did he had concerns about integrity but also about policy. the prime minister and the former chancellor when on same page ahead of the queen speech on the cost of living crisis next week. he was willing to review all economic decisions. some of the tax rise decisions for business, the speed of tax cuts, income tax cuts that were not due until 202a. perhaps even an issue he has been lobbied over, the idea of a vat cut as well. all issues they say they will look at. also they are going to

look at some spending decisions to keyissue look at some spending decisions to key issue public sector pay will be resolved in the next few weeks. important issues on the entry of the new chancellor. as perhaps presumptuous to assume he will get time to do middle of that given what we are hearing in whitehall today. —— time to do all that. how are voters reacting to the events of the last 2a hours? the constituency of high peak swung to the conservatives from labour at the last election. 0urjudith moritz has been talking to people there. the view from voters. 200 miles from westminster, whaley bridge feels far removed. the reputation of the prime minister matters here. has been lots of support for him but it is being severely tested. at the end of johnson street, this builders merchants where they a price on honesty. and where views are changing. l honesty. and where views are chan . in . honesty. and where views are changing-—

answering the call this morning and keeping their powder dry but the welsh secretary simon hart was answering questions in the commons and he has been a borisjohnson boy list in the past few weeks on the question put to him in the commons, would he resign from the cabinet? his answer was no, he says the welsh office is carrying on with business as normal but that is not strictly true because his parliamentary private secretary virginia crosby is one of those people who has already put in her resignation. amongst a flurry of letters in the past 2a hours. some of her words were the most stinging talk about the allegations of impropriety and illegality in reaching the conclusion that the british public no longer trusted the prime minister to tell the truth. the leader of the welsh conservatives andrew davies had a more neutral statement saying it was disappointing and that now borisjohnson it was disappointing and that now boris johnson needed it was disappointing and that now borisjohnson needed to deliver on his mandate. the labour first

minister here mark drakeford tweeted earlier that the uk deserved a government it could just and not one that just government it could just and not one thatjust propped up the prime minister. everyone here is keeping their eyes on westminster. we can go now to alexandra mckenzie in glasgow. brute now to alexandra mckenzie in glasuow. ~ ., , ., ., glasgow. we have 'ust heard from the leader of glasgow. we have 'ust heard from the reader of the — glasgow. we have just heard from the leader of the scottish _ glasgow. we have just heard from the leader of the scottish conservative - leader of the scottish conservative party douglas ross and he has called on the prime minister to resign. douglas ross has said the prime minister needs to realise he has lost the support of many colleagues and he has to stand down as prime minister. he also said it is not an easy thing for many of us to tell the prime minister but that time is “p the prime minister but that time is up and he needs to step aside. so thatjust in from the scottish conservative leader douglas ross. the scottish secretary alisterjack said last night that he was supporting borisjohnson and the first minister nicola sturgeon said

on social media it feels like the end might be nigh for mrjohnson and not a moment too soon and in her words she added that the whole rotten lot need to go. she said scotland needs the permanent alternative of independence. she spoke to borisjohnson about that a couple of days ago and he said as he always does that now was not the time and the snp are saying that they would be ready for a general election if there was to be won and they would fight that on the single issue of independence. that is the mood here in scotland, now reaction from northern ireland.— from northern ireland. under maclaverty — from northern ireland. under maclaverty in _ from northern ireland. under maclaverty in belfast. - from northern ireland. under maclaverty in belfast. the i from northern ireland. under- maclaverty in belfast. the northern ireland secretary of state brandon lewis johnson loyalist ireland secretary of state brandon lewisjohnson loyalist has pledged morning to the prime minister about his personal private secretary has also resigned today. we are locked in her own political crisis here of course the northern ireland and the dup has walked away from power—sharing in protest at the

northern ireland protocol and if there is a question of a boris johnson and his future than that presents a big challenge here because of the fact that the eu may well now consider that borisjohnson has his days numbered and would be less willing to strike a deal over the northern ireland protocol. then of course with legislation going through westminster now seeking to strip away parts of the protocol which may now run into difficulties if there is a leadership change in downing street. so the problems are stacking up and all those problems linked to the return of power—sharing in northern ireland. borisjohnson of course has no real political allies here in the majority of stormont parties today basically said they would be glad to see the back of borisjohnson and indications are that we are no closer here to the reset button being pressed at stormont. thank you and 'ust to being pressed at stormont. thank you andjust to point _ being pressed at stormont. thank you and just to point out _ being pressed at stormont. thank you and just to point out that _ being pressed at stormont. thank you and just to point out that you - being pressed at stormont. thank you and just to point out that you can - and just to point out that you can keep up to date as best as anyone can on all of this on the bbc news

website. on bbc.co.uk/news. in our other main news this lunchtime. law enforcement authorities from across europe say they have dismantled what's believe to be the biggest international migrant—smuggling operation — one which has seen up to 10,000 people sent across the english channel over the past 18 months. with the details, here's our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford. police. you are under arrest. in coordinated raids yesterday right across europe... i'm arresting you on suspicion of immigration offences under section 25 of the immigration act. ..suspected people smugglers were being rounded up. here in south—east london it was 26—year—old man. police! there was an arrest in east london, too. both are being held on suspicion of conspiring to facilitate illegal immigration. it is all part of a europe—wide operation targeting what is believed

to be one of the most significant organised crime groups involved in smuggling people across the channel using small boats. of the 39 arrests made across europe, the largest number, 18, was in germany. the area around the city of 0snabuuck is thought to have been the smugglers' logistical hub. here they stored the boats, engines and life jackets which were then moved on to france when needed. german police found 150 boats, enough to smuggle 7500 people if crammed in 50 to a boat, as often happens. it has been a long time in coming and it is the biggest group that we have seen in all our intelligence collection, right across, it is the biggest one we've seen. we believe they have been responsible for bringing up to 10,000 migrants across the channel in the 12 to 18 months that we have been out targeting them.

the gang are thought to have brought the boats from turkey in large numbers and then discreetly sent them to france in ones, twos and threes. they were charging around £3000 for a crossing, supplying barely seaworthy boats and underpowered engines. they would launch up to 15 boats simultaneously. it is hoped today's operation will put a significant dent in the number of people crossing the channel. daniel sandford, bbc news. in the us, the man accused of opening fire on a lithjuly parade near chicago has been charged with seven counts of murder. prosecutors said robert crimo would face "dozens more" charges as the police continue to investigate the mass shooting. nomia iqbal reports from illinois. families had been celebrating the day their nation found independence when gunshots rang out. a traditional event in this country has been destroyed by what is becoming another american

tradition — a mass shooting. a 21—year—old has been charged with bringing terror to this town. robert crimo has been accused of carrying out what authorities say was a well—orchestrated and carefully—planned crime. today, the lake county state's attorney's office has charged robert cremo iii with seven counts of first—degree murder. for the killing spree that he has unleashed against our community. these are just the first of many charges that will be filed against mr cremo. more details have come out about the victims. nicholas toledo's family had taken him out for celebrations. jacki sundheim was described as a beloved member of the local synagogue where she worked. investigations by police and the fbi have shown that robert cremo dressed up as a woman, as he fled the scene of the crime. this happened just down the road behind me. police say the gunman climbed

the rooftop with his gun, overlooking the parade, and shot 70 rounds. he then disappeared. it was hours later when the police caught him on the motorway in a car. recently, major gun legislation was passed in the us to tackle gun violence, although it would not have stopped him as he had legally purchased his rifle. a clash of two american traditions. a wonderful tradition of families, 4th ofjuly, a horrible tradition of mass shootings. are mass shootings now a tradition in america? i don't want it to be but it's becoming one. if cremo is convicted, authorities here say they will make sure he is jailed for life without parole. nomia iqbal, bbc news, highland park, chicago. a busy and exciting day in sport, because the women's european football championship kicks off this evening. england is hosting, and the lionesses are among the favourites.

they take on austria in front of 70,000 fans at old trafford tonight. northern ireland will be making their debut in the tournament, which has been delayed by a year because of the pandemic. our sports correspondent, natalie pirks is at old trafford for us now... this is the quietest it is going to be at old trafford because it is a sell—out tonight and playing at the theatre of dreams for these women is a far cry from the first official euros in 1984 when they played on waterlogged pitches. england made the final and lost on penalties. but todayit the final and lost on penalties. but today it is hoped this could change the women's game for ever but to win hearts, they must first win. months of talking has led us here. old trafford is a sell out tonight, as are all of england's games. and as the players took in the enormity of their situation, as hosts, they're relishing the renewed focus on the women's game.

we know what to expect and we're ready for it. but yeah, i think everybody�*s got their own things in place now to be able to deal with it. and, you know, pressure's a privilege, so it's something that we're embracing. england are one of the favourites for this tournament, but the fact remains, bobby moore is the last captain to have lifted a major trophy for england. the men made it all the way to the final here last summer. can the lionesses go one better and win it? it's something they've never managed before. chance for six. six scored by germany. when they last made the final in 2009, they were hammered by germany. since then, they've fallen at the semi—finals hurdle at the last three major tournaments. chelsea's fran kirby had a front row seat for all three, and doesn't fancy a repeat. it takes a long time to get over it when you unfortunately don't get there. but yeah, i think you've just got to use it as motivation. it's definitely my motivation. i don't want to feel the way i did, you know, losing the semi—finals.

so hopefully we can do one better and get to the final this time. dutch manager sarina wiegman took the reins of the lionesses last september to much acclaim and she's backing up the hype. 14 matches, no defeats, 12 wins. 30 yards across the deck... it's in! she coached the reigning champions netherlands to glory in 2017. but this, this is different. everything is more, bigger, more expectations, higher expectations. the level of the game is higher. so actually it's hard to compare, but i think the players are more experienced and have had more moments already in this higher environment. attendance is where the women's game needs improvement, but a record half a million tickets have been sold. the further england go, the more the game could grow a chance for england! natalie pirks, bbc news. to wimbledon now, where there are some

exciting quarter final matches this afternoon. our sports news correspondent laura scott is at the all england club. the sun may not be shining here at wimbledon but it is basking in british success for last night when cameron norrie came from what he described as a crazy match on a crazy day to set up a semifinal on friday with none other than novak djokovic. after emotional celebration is norrie admitted he will need to raise his level and races focus if he is to beat novak djokovic but he said he would take it to the top seed. today we have eight more players trying to book their spot in the semifinals. the semifinals. the former champion simona halep has yet to drop a set in the championship so far playing the young american amanda anisimova. then another american taylor fritz playing two times champion rafa nadal who has already won the first two grand slams of the year. then on court number one a big day for
