hello, i'm luxmy gopal. we start in the uk because there are calls for unity within the conservative party, after borisjohnson�*s decision to stand down as an mp. three tory mps have announced their resignations in the past 2a hours. they trigger a series of by—elections and raise questions about the future of rishi sunak�*s government. the latest to announce he's stepping down with immediate effect was nigel adams — a big supporter of former prime minister boris johnson. on friday another political ally of mrjohnson, nadine dorries, announced she was quitting to be swiftly followed by the former prime minister himself, claiming he was the victim of a "witchhunt". that's after he received an advance copy of a report into whether he deliberately misled parliament over covid lockdown parties at downing street. three by—elections will now be held at a time when rishi sunak�*s conservative party is languishing in the opinion polls.

our political correspondent, damian grammaticas, has the latest. is this the end of a political career? "a witch—hunt," borisjohnson says, forced him out. "a kangaroo court," he has called parliament's investigation. in truth, he saw its conclusions before we did, and decided to go. it was this, partygate, mps were probing — whether mrjohnson lied to parliament. he has gone before it's published. he feels he can't be held to account for what others did when he wasn't present. he didn't know? that is his version, that is his story. i am merely... laughter. ..i am merely acting as a reporter. so today, labour out campaigning in uxbridge. they smell a chance to snap up the seat borisjohnson once had a big majority in, but has abruptly vacated. borisjohnson has shown himself to be a coward once more. he has not held his hands up and taken responsibility as he should do. the privileges committee, a well—respected committee made up

of a majority of tory mps, and he hasjust tried to trash them and say, "i've got no responsibility, "i've done nothing wrong." all this means trouble for mrjohnson�*s successor here. that may have been part of his aim with this resignation. rishi sunak is blamed by some of borisjohnson�*s supporters for abetting his downfall. today, ministers were trying to keep out of things. the determination of whether or not he should stand down was purely a decision for the former prime minister, and that's where that rests. our focus is on delivering on the priorities of the british people. that is where the prime minister's focus is, that is the priority of all of government. that borisjohnson is divisive, for some a chaotic liability, for others an election—winner, was clear for those in uxbridge today. argh. taking the easy option out, isn't he? instead of standing there and defending himself and everyone else, he is doing the wrong thing. i don't like him in any case. i think it's the best thing that

could happen, get rid of him. i would vote for him tomorrow. great man, he has a huge amount . of support all over the country. and it has been a witch—hunt. he'll be back, i reckon. and more by—elections loom. nigel adams, a loyal supporter of borisjohnson, today said he was also standing down. nadine dorries quit yesterday. she thought she was in line for a seat in the lords in his resignation honours, but wasn't on the list released by downing street. what all this means for rishi sunak and the conservatives is that new tensions are swirling between factions in the party, and by—elections are coming, just when the conservatives are languishing in the polls. losing any of those could lead some tory mps to question, as borisjohnson did in his resignation letter, the direction of the party and rishi sunak�*s leadership. rishi sunak should above all, borisjohnson and his backers think, be offering tax cuts. what we want is reassurance from the prime minister, that that is very much his agenda and then examples of how

he is pursuing that agenda because clearly some of my colleagues don't feel they are very welcome on the journey, so that three of them have now decided to get off the bus altogether. and worse for rishi sunak, borisjohnson has hinted he might try a comeback. former us president donald trump has called the federal charges against him a witch—hunt during a speech at the georgia republican convention in columbus. it was his first first public appearance since being indicted over withholding classified presidential documents. mr trump, who's due to make a first appearance in the case in a miami court on tuesday, insisted the charges are all a hoax. and as president all of my documents fell under what is known as the presidential records act which is not at all a criminal act. everything, it's alljudged by the presidential records act. in this whole fake indictment, they don't even once mention the presidential records act which is really the ruling act

which in this case falls under 100% because they want to use something called the espionage act. doesn't that sound terrible? we got a box! i got a box! the espionage. the espionage act of 1917. think it was put in there about world war i, boxes... and biden has got 1850 boxes, got boxes in chinatown dc, boxes all over the place, he doesn't know what the hell to do with them, and he is fighting them on the boxes, he doesn't want to give the boxes and then they say trump is obstructioning, he's obstructing. it is a sad day, sad day for the country. last night, last night i said that our country has tears because of what's happening, we have fake elections, we have no borders, we have inflation, we have everything isjust going wrong.

there has never been anything like it in the history of our country, we have never done like this, and the division is so bad because what they do it so bad and our people are angry and theyjust keep doing it and sometimes you need strength, you have to have strength, more than just normal strength, and we have to get a change because we are not going to have a country left. i am nowjoined by our north america correspondent nomia iqbal who is in miami. he is actually still going at that convention, still at that podium in columbus in georgia, you can see the live image of him now. i am nowjoined by our north america correspondent nomia iqbal who is in miami. people watching, our reviewers, may well have seen those images, those photos of allegedly boxes of documents in the bathroom and

ballroom. just reminders of the exact nature of these charges. these charues exact nature of these charges. these charges are — exact nature of these charges. these charges are huge. _ exact nature of these charges. these charges are huge. these _ exact nature of these charges. these charges are huge. these are - exact nature of these charges. ii—iifflf charges are huge. these are federal charges are huge. these are federal charges that donald trump is facing, so this is his second indictment and of course he doesn't have the drama of course he doesn't have the drama of the first indictment in new york, but in legal terms this is way bigger. this is essentially the united states of america saying to its former commander—in—chief that you need to be put on trial for allegedlyjeopardising the country's allegedly jeopardising the country's national security, allegedlyjeopardising the country's national security, so this is a big, and those pictures show that he allegedly had hundreds of classified documents stored in boxes on a stage, in a ballroom, lots of people would be able to see it. also stacked in boxes in the bathroom, nearly shower. and interestingly in that speech which he used to air his grievances that he mentioned

president biden, so it is worth reminding people that president biden is also being investigated over his mishandling of classified documents, but it is very different in the sense that president biden, it is thought to be about ten documents that he had done this was during his time as vice president and as a senator, some were found at his home in wilmington in delaware and others at the headquarters of former think tank he was a part of. but he cooperated with the department ofjustice in order to get those documents back, the same thing happened with former vice president mike pence who is not going to be charged by the department ofjustice so it is very different, but it has not stopped trump of accusing president biden of weapon icing the department of justice to go after him which president biden has completely as you mention, he did say republicans are treated differently to democrats by the justice department. are treated differently to democrats by thejustice department. a lot of

messages that came out in his speech, but of course one of the questions that experts have tried to answer is whether or not he could face prison time if found guilty, if convicted. what could happen next? just lay out the potential timeline for us. fin just lay out the potential timeline for us. , ., , for us. on tuesday donald trump will a- ear in for us. on tuesday donald trump will appear in the — for us. on tuesday donald trump will appear in the courthouse _ for us. on tuesday donald trump will appear in the courthouse behind - for us. on tuesday donald trump will appear in the courthouse behind me i appear in the courthouse behind me and as you can imagine there are lots of media here already, marking off their territory, where they want to broadcast from, and this will become even bigger on tuesday. as i mentioned, different to the new york case, and he will be fingerprinted but there won't be handcuffs or a mugshot. he will go inside the court and face a judge and lay out the charges and he is expected to plead not guilty in the special prosecutor jack smith has said he wants this to be a speedy trial. something worth

remembering is the department of justice has a decades long policy that it does not indict sitting presidents and we are heading towards election season so they want this wrapped up as quickly as possible. jack smith has also investigated donald trump over his role in the january the 6th capital rights. something else people might be asking, prosecutors want him to face a jury in the place where these alleged crimes happened. the courthouse is about two hours away from mar—a—lago which is his florida home. also florida is a republican leaning states which he won twice in the last two presidential elections and the judge initially handling the case is one he appointed, so it will be pretty hard for donald trump to argue he is not getting a fair hearing but i'm pretty sure he will not look at it in that way. £311" not look at it in that way. our north america _ not look at it in that way. our north america correspondent in miami and as you can see also on your screen, former us president donald trump is continuing to speak at the convention in georgia and as was

mentioned he has denied the wrongdoing and has continued in that speech to call it a witchhunt. ted kaczynski, better known as the unabomber, has been found dead in his jail cell by prison officers. kaczynski pleaded guilty to killing three people and injuring 23 more during a mass bombing spree between 1978 and 1995. he was sentenced to life without parole in 1996 after evading capture for almost 20 years. the 81—year—old spent the past three decades held at prisons across the us. officials say he was found unresponsive in his cell at a prison in north carolina. live now to los angeles and our north american correspondent, peter bowes. expand a little bit more on the background because the unabomber is a name that will be familiar to a lot of people. a name that will be familiar to a lot of maple-—

lot of people. familiar to many --eole in lot of people. familiar to many peeple in this _ lot of people. familiar to many people in this country, - lot of people. familiar to many people in this country, ted - people in this country, ted kaczynski terrorised the united states for almost 20 years, the late 19705, throughout the 805 and early 905, by mailing bombs that he had made himself and his cabin, a very remote place he lived in montana, mailed his intended victims, many of whom were scientists, a lot of people working in technology. some worked in universities hence the nickname the unabomber, others worked in the airline industry, and this went on for a long time, and for a long period people in this country were very nervous that he was never going to be caught. he was extremely elusive, there was a huge and very costly manhunt, by the fbi and very costly manhunt, by the fbi and other law enforcement agencies. and in the mid—905 before his capture two national newspapers here published a manifesto after some persuasion and the involvement of the fbi that helped publish his

35,000 word manifesto that essentially explained his thoughts and reasons for doing what he was doing, that he was anti—technology. he railed against modern ways of life and he argued for a return to the old ways of doing things, a return to nature, if you like. the result of the publication of that manifesto is that it was seen by his brother and his sister—in—law and recognised the tone of the writing and believed it to be him from the writings he had done many years earlier as a younger man. they contacted the fbi and that ultimately resulted in his capture. and we have heard that he has been found dead in his cell, tell us a little bit more about what details we have. we little bit more about what details we have. ~ ., �* ., ., , we have. we don't have too many details, we _ we have. we don't have too many details, we don't _ we have. we don't have too many details, we don't know— we have. we don't have too many details, we don't know the - we have. we don't have too manyj details, we don't know the official cause of death, he was 81 years old. we do know he had been suffering

canadian prime minister, justin trudeau. the bbc�*s yalda hakim, who's in kyiv, has been listening to president zelensky speak about the conflict. for the past week, we have heard a lot of speculation around this counteroffensive. has it started, and if so, what will it look like going forward? the world's media and military analysts have all been asking this question, and so today, at the press conference i was at with volodymyr zelensky, ukraine's president, alongside canada's premier, justin trudeau, president zelensky was asked the question that, in the last 2a hours, we have heard from russia's president, vladimir putin, who confirmed or said that the counteroffensive on the ukraine side had begun. just have a listen to what he had to say. translation: the counteroffensive and defence actions _ are taking place in ukraine. i will not speak at what stage or phase they are, but i am sure that we will feel

all of that definitely. i would not trust these or those telegram channels, and, in particular, putin. it seems to me we had lots of occasions and steps after which we understood that we can not trust this kind of information. we need to trust, as it seems to me, our military, our soldiers, and i trust them. daily, i am in touch with our commanders of different spheres. 0n vladimir putin, he was very dismissive. he grinned and said, "why is he talking "about our counteroffensive? "he must be feeling it. "he will continue to do so." as i said, again, he kept his cards very close to his chest. he would not give much information away, but did say that he speaks to his commanders daily, and that they were in good spirits. for his part, justin trudeau talked about the ongoing support that

canada will continue to provide ukraine in terms of military support as well as aid. we have seen a massive humanitarian crisis in the south—east of the country after that dam was breached, so prime minister trudeau talked about the need for the ongoing support to ukraine. just have a listen. in addition, today i'm announcing that canada will be part - of the multinational efforts to train fighter pilots, - and to maintain and support - ukraine's fighterjet programme, leveraging canadian- expertise in these areas. we will also be contributing - to the multinational leopard tank maintenance initiative. iwe will provide an additional 288| aim—7 missiles, which will support ukraine in its efforts to defend ukrainian skies. _ and from existing funds, _ we will provide 10,000 rounds of 105 millimetre ammunition - to the ukraine security forces.

justin trudeau, canada's prime minister speaking there at that press conference with the volodymyr zelensky today. we don't know how long justin trudeau will be here, but he is part of this wave of western leaders making their way here to the ukrainian capital. it is about a 12—hourjourney from poland to here, so they come to show their support, even though this country is in a state of war and conflict. you would not know it if you were here in the capital, kyiv. restaurants, cafes are buzzing, they are full of people, they are really trying to get on with their daily lives. in the east and the south—east, that is where the epicentre of this counteroffensive will be, which will go on for many months. for now, we are not getting a lot of information. as this counter—offensive continues, no doubt the ukrainian side will want to give information

about their progress and gains, and of course we will hear about the setbacks as well. they have this very small window up to about october and november before the weather changes. we keep hearing about the importance of the spring and summer offensive, because once the winter kicks in, fighting becomes incredibly difficult, but we will continue our coverage here from the capital, kyiv, as the developments and updates continue. a french prosecutor says a man suspected of stabbing four young children in annecy is being held with attempted murder charges. the four children include a three—year—old british girl. two adults were also injured in a park in annecy on thursday. the authorities say the victims are no longer in a life—threatening condition. let's just leave you with some
