face is questions about whether he has reached peak corbyn.is means for labour in a moment with labour's leader in the lords. but first, local elections are all about local issues, until the party does better than expected and then suddenly they're about really big issues. today, the foreign secretary boris johnson took the result as an indication the party could push forward on its promise to cut free of a customs union. so what does this mean for the pm's brexit strategy, now? i asked jo johnson, the transport minister, if that worried him. the fact that vote share projections showed that the conservatives and labour were neck and neck. clearly this is a local election. a general election is fought on different issues often with different electorates. remember not all the people who vote in a local election can vote in a general election including significant numbers of eu nationals. so it's a different electorate. and is hard to read across too closely. what i think this does show is the very significant concerns aboutjeremy corbyn's leader

i think those close to jeremy corbyn, as has been said, it is not a mistake, jeremy corbyn ‘s languagean think that he's missing something, that he's being apologetic, that somehow that will make it all right with the jewish community because it certainly isn't. those within the party that are not particularly close to the leadership are absolutely appalled by what is going on and they are just literally with their head in their hands. they don't know what has become of the party that they loved so dearly. what is so interesting about this story is that there is a suggestion is has come about because of the threat of shami chakra barty quitting the front bench. she wrote the report in the first place that then became a bit of a whitewash and she got very much criticised for it. what has changed there? that is the question i want to know the answer to. it does not dojeremy corbyn any favours particularly because he would needed to have pushed ken livingstone to make it look as if he was taking a grip on this issue. what is going on? so do either party wa nt what is going on? so do eithe

yeah and jeremy corbyn the labor leader he said that he's all for scrapping the house of lords his spoke spokespersons has said that the upper chamber of the british parliament is basically a take a listen to what he had to say it's absurd that we still have this undemocratic and the charisma in the twenty first century and when labor is elected we will carry through that pledge yes so jeremy corbyn you see that vowing that if elected he's saying that a labor government would abolish the house of lords entirely and in fact jeremy corbyn says he's now only going to appoint labor pay is if they agree to basically vote themselves out of a job if it ever came down to

jeremy corbyn. she was also asked about citizenship fees, international trade, and the state of brexit negotiations. this is 45 minutes. >> thank you. order. questions for the prime minister. kerry mccarthy. >> question number one, mr. speaker. >> thank you, mr. speaker. speaker, this week has been the start of the grand felt power -- the grenfell tower inquiry. this was an unimaginable tragedy and justice must be done for the victims, survivors, bereaved and the wider community. it is right that we learn everything we can about what happened and take the necessary steps to make sure nothing like it ever happens again. mr. speaker yesterday also , allowed the nation to come together, one year on, to remember all the victims of the manchester terrorist attack. that night saw the worst of humanity, but it also saw the best. the kindness, compassion and fortitude we witnessed that night triumphed, and the great spirit of manchester continues to inspire us. mr. speaker this morning i had , meetings with

think the critics ofjeremy corbyn will criticise jeremy corbyn. think the critics ofjeremy corbyn willhat happened in leave voting areas and the midlands. they will say tony blair's middle england is leading the labour party. there is another interpretation, although this is not particularly comfortable fit jeremy corbyn. that is that given the apparent importance as to whether you are remain or leave voter as to which direction you will go in, it is perhaps rather difficult for the labour party to profit from any discontent voters may have with the conservative government at the moment. we know there are quite a few leave voters who aren't too sure the conservative government is making a decent fist of brexit and at as making a decent fist of brexit and atasa making a decent fist of brexit and at as a result going to switch to the labour party because the labour party is regarded by many voters as soft on immigration. given the raw brexit is playing in politics now, maybe it is more difficult for an opposition to advance —— the role that brexit is playing. given that the country is di

jeremy corbyn calls for... believed in a united ireland when he was an obscure backbencher in the later 805. butjeremy corbyn i5 going to northern ireland... he still believes in the united ireland. he has not changed his views. legitimately, he says that jeremy corbyn still believes in a united ireland. yes said by content of the good friday agreement, if you have a referendum and so on, but clearly at the moment there is no desire in northern ireland have a united ireland. so eitherway, this is very much... and again, a lot of people are saying that they're encouraging people to look at this a5 encouraging people to look at this as an alternative. this is explosive stuff. an opportunity for conservatives, the conservative and unionist party, we surely cannot break up the party for this. we have to keep united kingdom together. northern ireland is one of our poor countries. we cannot just northern ireland is one of our poor countries. we cannotjust abandon them because there is another policy will want to foll

corbyn might win. we would have a government of sort of brexiteer, but a hidden one led by jeremy corbyn. with whom the europeans would have to negotiate. they don't want to negotiate with corbyn. they don't want to pull the plug on theresa may's career, for that reason. if there is a silver lining, it is things have got so bad that europe is actually going to pick up some of the slack britain is incapable of creating for itself right now. >> you see that a little bit, i think, in the line that european union has always had to draw. where the perception is if they give the u.k. too good of a deal on brexit, then the concern is, then you will have brexit, every other member of the european union saying, i want that deal, if you are to give that much to the u.k. you've seen that line move a little bit. where the perception is that this has been so perceptively agreed for the u.k. that you can give a little bit more and it actually won't necessarily entice the netherlands or someone else to come along and

jeremy corbyn ‘s supporters happen putting a brave face on it and jeremy corbyn saint bees were solidelection but the people here, they would describe themselves as being on the moderate wing of the labour party. i thinkjeremy corbyn's supporters, momentum, were described as being on the right of the labour party. they are absolutely saying labour should have done better and really putting that claim for that at the feet ofjeremy corbyn and labour's move to the left. what the key speaker alistair campbell said. we're kidding ourselves if we think these election results are good. not living in denial of real question that the public are asking, real problem is that it was face up to them. so it is not to undermine jeremy corbyn say that out there in the real world people are asking the question whether he can be prime minister. they are asking whether the shadow cabinet as a team, whether we are doing the right thing brexit, the right positions on foreign policy, whether we are taking anti—semitism seriously. these are real questions. and so i think, you know, if you look at the way th

leading us fight behind jeremy corbyn leading us into that election.at election. i interviewed the labour leader for barnet council and he is in no doubt that the anti—semitism row is what cost labour control of that council. presumably you agree. labour control of that council. presumably you agreelj labour control of that council. presumably you agree. i think we need to look at those results but there is no doubt that the jewish community have sent us a message in barnet and i think we have to understand that. clearly when you have internal disciplinary matters that end up on the front pages and linger, it stops you trying to get your positive message of change over and that's what happened in the last month so it was very difficult for us. you've seenjeremy‘s leadership on that, we have implemented the chakra report and i hope we can come back to barnet in years to come and see we have learned our lesson and dealt with anti—semitism. see we have learned our lesson and dealt with anti-semitism. that perhaps is the complete consolation to the labour

neil kinnock has warned jeremy corbyn he is going to make a dereliction of duty.etty accurate. neil kinnock has said, the part jeremy pretty accurate. neil kinnock has said, the partjeremy corbyn is going to expose, working people, it is opposed to protect from the rock slide of hard brexit, and he has dismissed jeremy corbyn's claims that the single market would restrict the uk's ability to intervene ina restrict the uk's ability to intervene in a british industry as being part of an infantile leftist illusion which i think is more damning thana illusion which i think is more damning than a of duty. —— serious invasion of duty. lord kinnock says, whether you think this is a veiled incitement for mps to rebel, that loyalty is a virtue that in excess fills graveyards, but there hasn't beena fills graveyards, but there hasn't been a lot of rebellion. a lot of, we are not very happy, but we're not going to do it anything about it. the clinic takes a long holiday from politics and then he pops back and throws a bombshell into the labour party —— neil kinnock takes a l

is he a plus oi’ corbyn and his cronies. is he a plus ora minus? corbyn and his cronies. be a minus at times but labour is notjust one person. the messages from around the country showed strong feelings deeply split. labour was the party to stop the poor pain for the greed of the rich again, said one. a tory supporter said: he made this trip three times, but in swindon, labour only gained a single seat, hard effort gone to waste, party loyalty often an unbreakable habit. however you describe yourself. historic conservative voter, it is in my blood. i can't ever imagine voting for any other party. i don't believe in none of them, i never vote, load of rubbish. i used to vote for conservative before. but labour this time? yes. what's changed your mind? to bring somebody new. what with brexit, internal struggles, to bring somebody new. what with brexit, internalstruggles, it is harder now for any party to get to the top of the pile, not much changed in these elections. but then, so many old rules of politics have ended up on the scrapheap. our political editor laura kuenssbe

the big question being asked of jeremy corbyn is whether we have reached a peak corbyn, the high watermarken he came into this election on a roll with a real sense of momentum. last night you felt the corbyn bandwagon stuttering and stalling and in some areas it clunked into reverse. if you look outside of london, there are share of the vote went down, they didn't hold on to key councils in the north light derby, there were losses in some of those bellwether marginal seats in the midlands, like nuneaton and redditch, and further southin nuneaton and redditch, and further south in the old lair belt seats, swindon and basildon, again, not making the progress they should. and in london, they missed out on those tory targets. when you talk to team corbyn, they say it was a consolidation election. the difficulty is consolidation is the same as standing still, and standing still is not enough to get you from opposition into government. as for theresa may, she can break open the biscuits because she did better than she dared hope, in large pa rt better than she dared hope, in large part thanks to

clearly you do not believe jeremy corbyn get rid of him.n the right way. how does he 110w this in the right way. how does he now build a new relationship with the jewish community and now build a new relationship with thejewish community and people in your constituency? jeremy corbyn when i have had a conversation with him, he has listened carefully when i've said about the fact that people are concerned about the anti—semitic elements within labour party and i would say the labour party as a whole is not anti—semitic about there are elements and we have to act quickly to make sure we get rid of them so would that we send a clear message that we will not put up clear message that we will not put up with this and not put up with people being anti—semitic. there's no place in the labour party for who are anti—semitic racist or whatever but no doubt a lot ofjewish members especially in my area felt very upset and offended by a party that they had supported for years. jeremy said to me over and again that there isa said to me over and again tha

labour party who slowed down the process sojeremy corbyn could be blamed.out the mass membership, the new members who flooded in and the days of union's power is a thing of past? trade unions created the labour party and will always have the labour party as their political voice. will always bea their political voice. will always be a powerful group. of course we will, because we represent millions of working people and we represent labour. unites handed labour party £11 million underjeremy corbyn and he is the tory‘s favourite bogey man. you love it. in a way, i wear it as man. you love it. in a way, i wear itasa man. you love it. in a way, i wear it as a badge of honour if right—wing newspapers are attacking me, i must be doing something right for my class, my members and my people. the footballer ray wilson — who was a member of england's world cup winning team in 1966 — has died at the age of 83. he played at left—back in all six of england's games in the tournament and was the oldest member of the team in the final. along with geoff hurst, he famously

jeremy corbyn has to say something. yeah, geta jeremy corbyn has to say something.d say he is saying what he believes. they started from a high water mark. there is an argument in local elections young people don't turn out in the same number as they do in general elections. they didn't do badly. they got the best results in london since 1971. sometimes the press lays out the failures. they did get good results but they didn't break the ceilings for various reasons. i am disappointed. break the ceilings for various reasons. lam disappointed. i break the ceilings for various reasons. i am disappointed. i don't know what the labour party believes when it comes to brexit. i sometimes feel as if even i, on the left, and being played. what is it they are doing with it? clarify your position. let's move on from brexit. look at the other story on the front page of the observer. a donald trump tea m page of the observer. a donald trump team by a firm ferre dirty operation on the iran arms deal. a lot in that headline. there are people out there watching this now shaking the

and jeremy corbyn support is just say they will not have it.is an election winner. they will not admit that these were not very good for labour. they will see what the others will call for as just crying —— christ. —— cries. others will call for as just crying -- christ. -- cries. and yet you have the likes of andy burnham spigot from greater manchester. he was also pinpointing work that needed to be done. he put a dent to stronger de—evolution to reach out to those areas that labour has missed this time around. labour has done very well in london. they did miss their target seats. they did not ca ptu re miss their target seats. they did not capture councils. but the labour vote is strong in london. they're in a good position there. but you have the opposition party and the night with fewer councils under their control than they began. they gained two, lost a few. and that is not a good result for the opposition party. i is to work for them back in the 1980s and our member getting exciting ones and there good polls. and we want local election r

jeremy corbyn said mr livingstone quitting labour was "sad" but "the right thing to do".laura kuenssberg reports from westminster. that's your politics, rewriting history... never shy of a battle, ken livingstone landed himself with one. what hitler did... that he walked into again, and again, and again. arguing that at one time hitler had supported zionism, the movement to create a jewish state in the middle east. two years after calls for him to quit, he is finally off. well i have decided that rather than this drag on for another two years, it is betterfor the labour party if ijust resign. i can go back to campaigning on issues like the environment, supporting jeremy's economic plans and all of that. but if i was to stay in and fight this, my lawyers say it could take two years more. this was the start. let's remember when hitler won his election in 1932, his policy then was thatjews should be moved to israel. he was supporting zionism, before he went mad. but by no means the end. he stood by his remarks, to the horror of many in the labour party, jewish community, and

isjeremy corbyn the man to do that? leadership elections to show that clearly is the will of the labour party. it is tiring that we are continually discussing him as a leader. the labour party right now is not about individuals or leadership. what's exciting is that we had people knocking on doors all over the country, people who had not campaigned before, to get people talking about the issues that matter to them. despite what's being said by some people in the press, momentum managed to galvanise people in seats up and down the country, people who had not gone on the ground before, to try and get people talking. i think that's what's exciting here. in a moment we will have a full round—up of all the day's stories with kate silverton. good afternoon and welcome to bbc news. more details have emerged about the arrest of jamie acourt, one of britain's most wanted fugitives. he'd managed to evade detection for two years before being arrested in barcelona on suspicion of drugs offences. jamie acourt was one of five people

so we haven't seen peak corbyn then?me and it is going to get even better. his legions of supporters agree. i am really excited for what plymouth can come up with and what labour can do for us. thrilled about the plymouth result. i think it is about time. cheering and applause. they certainly had reasons to be cheerful around the country, pushing the tories out of power in trafford, the only patch of blue in the north—west sea of red. piling on council seats in the cities. but not enough to grab their high—profile targets in london. the mayor there left before the disappointment of one of the big results. conservative, 3567. and labour's hopes of capturing barnet, where there is a big jewish population, crashed, partly due to anti—semitism in the party. you put it down to that? looking at how the votes went in different wards, that was certainly the biggest factor. and outside the cities, labour could not stop many towns from turning tory. swindon stayed blue, they took basildon, peterborough, the conservatives scooping

it is not to underminejeremy corbyn, to say that i did in the real world , corbyn, to say that i didprime minister, is the shadow cabinet team, are we doing the right thing on brexit, do we have the right position on foreign policy, are we taking anti—semitism seriously? these are real questions. if you look at the way that the tories are handling brexit, would it is always full thinking, there is an element of parts of the labour party thinking, we all stop talking and debating, we will all waltz into power. it does not work like that. with me is michael segalov, a journalist and labour party member. alastair campbell, you heard what he said, he is not happy. i was looking at your twitter feed and you find the whole discussion boarding.|j think it is quite tedious that we're going round in circles talking about the leadership when there has been a clear steer from the labour party never ship thatjeremy corbyn is the leader. the direction of the parties said. this was a good result for the labour party, maybe not the gains that some people were predicting, but last year we were told

jeremy corbyn had somewhere else to go today, to a celebration let'sjust remember where we were a yearthe electoral extermination was talked about after local elections when labour got 27% and four weeks later got 40% to deprive the tories of a majority. according to the bbc‘s own projections labour would be ahead of seats in parliament, that shows last year wasn't a fluke. in london, labour has got its best result since 1971 and the tory had their worst results. you are not exterminated but you should be in an incredibly strong position against theresa may's government right now? that is what i am saying. london, this was a tory city until recently with a conservative mayor. 1992 london was more likely to vote tory than the rest of the country bust up in trafford, momentum campaigned exceptionally hard. labour should be knocking over the conservatives with a feather. those local elections last year, what you saw was labour going from 37% in four weeks to a general election, getting the biggest vote surge of labour since 19115. it's difficult to extrapolate from local elections but wha

jeremy corbyn going on brexit for the second week running.enjeremy visions of a brexit, so much so that even jeremy corbyn feels it visions of a brexit, so much so that evenjeremy corbyn feels it can go on the attack. we know he has his own difficulties behind and in the house of lords. lessons and challenging theresa may over government disarray on the customs deal. the government is so busy negotiating with itself that it cannot negotiate with anybody else. mr speaker, if the prime minister cannot negotiate a good deal for britain, why does she not step aside and let labour negotiate a new customs union and are living standard backed by trade unions and businesses in this country, step aside and make way for those who will. there is sort of trouble down the line heading theresa may sway over brexit. the house of lords have passed a whole stack of amendments, one of which could prove profoundly problematic which affect would enable the uk to remain the single market. theresa may was asked by labourmp market. theresa may was asked by labour m

jeremy corbyn ‘s supporters were described them as being on the right.nd that the labour party has taken to the left. they blame the fa ct taken to the left. they blame the fact labour has not taken big strides forwards in these elections onjeremy corbyn. just looking at the election results, yes, i can say they did take their best results since the early 70s here in london but around the country, in towns like nuneaton and derby, they really fell backwards, losing ground to the conservatives. this was an election when nobody really one overall. the tories took a few steps forwards in some places, fell backwards and others. labour did the same bulldog in many ways, the best outcome was for the liberal democrats control for the liberal democrats control for councils, turning around usually after eight years of conservative government labour would have been hoping to make big gains. they didn't. and today, speaking to this cold fronts, alistair campbell, was explaining the reasons for that. isaidl explaining the reasons for that. i said i will be frank. an

suggests that theresa may is still ahead of thejeremy corbyn in the labour party but what ever you doms of a oxymoron by plo they did their best to take this number and make it as positive for the prime minister as possible so the best you can do is that nearly half of the vote rs can do is that nearly half of the voters would think that the economy would be weaker if he jeremy corbyn as prime ministers. but when you come down to who people would vote for, labour and the tories are actually level at 40—40 so the country has not shifted really since la st country has not shifted really since last year's general election. they are still at this neck and neck almost. i think britain can't make up almost. i think britain can't make up its mind. front page of the metro, a left wing activists abusing... sad thing to happen but not that surprising. we are talking about social media which as much as i love it, itjust attracts idiotic people. all of those kinds of things. the kind of people who... the kind of people who would never ever say that kind of thing to europe face and if you confront

fear ofjeremy corbyn prompts tough eu line on brexit.g to protect the single market. they are concerned there could be a return of things like state subsidies. we have had a history of relatively left—wing policies in europe since the second world war. it says the eu fears, they fear that britain could still a competitive advantage. it looks like this would be a disadvantage to any kind of ongoing negotiations, but we hear it is because they fear that britain could do quite well if they subsidise their lot of the industries. it is a take, i guess. their lot of the industries. it is a take, iguess. it their lot of the industries. it is a take, i guess. it is quite good. it is quite a curious one. as you point out, it seems to be saying that the reason why they are insisting on the level playing field mechanism, part of the final agreement, the uk will guarantee to the eu that we will radically drop standards. that is predicated on the fact that there may or may not be a jeremy corbyn government at some point after we leave the european un

let's have a listen to jeremy corbyn on the nhs. bit to all of its staff over those 70 years, but the nhs reaches this milestone with the worst a and he waits on record. the worst delays for cancer referrals on record. falling numbers of gps, falling numbers of nurses, and the longest funding squeeze we have ever seen. so, let's mull over the exchanges in pmqs, i am joined by some guests. where are the liberal democrats on the private sector? to think there should be a role for the private sector in the nhs? our view is patient focused. the car about the outcomes. it should be free at the point of use. we think there is possibly a place, but it needs to work for patience, and in places like oxygen for example, we have lost services to the private sector, the services have been worse. what is the point? i think it is happening because of cost pressures, rather than driving quality up, and we do need to strike a new balance in my view? you would like to phase out the perpetrator? we believe that the nhs should be in public hands, and

it was for people to blame corbyn. jeremy corbyn has opposed anti—semitism all of life.s in opposing racism, and then very speedily asking him to produce a report, which he did, if very good report and if they would chance to read it, and that report and recommendation should've been implemented immediately. but that wouldn't two years on. google recently saying, the last four weeks, the previous general secretary did in the last two years. yet ask yourself the question, why was that? it is my personal beliefs, that there was deliberate by forces inside labour party headquarters who deliberately slow down the process so that corbyn could be blamed. detectives investigating the murder of eighty—five year—old woman at an address in romford, east london yesterday evening have named the victim as rosina coleman. the metropolitan police have described the attack as a cowardly assault. a probe into allegations commons speakerjohn bercow bullied members of staff has been blocked by mps. the commons standards committee voted three to two against allowing parliament's watchdog to

jeremy corbyn was out early to cast his vote in north london.arty did particularly well in the capital in the general election last year, the real test for a laboured tonight might be in other parts of england, in the north and midlands. and so vince cable, leader of the liberal democrats was out today, his party needs to rebuild its local council base which was sharply reduced during the years of the coalition government with david cameron which endedin government with david cameron which ended in 2015, a big test for the lib dems. as i said, more than 4000 council seats at stake denied. some key election battlegrounds, we are in wandsworth in south—west london, this is a high—profile conservative party since 1978, labour gained a parliamentary seat in this area last year, labour hoping for what might bea year, labour hoping for what might be a prominent victory in london for them tonight in wandsworth. would they do it? not long to wait, we are in basildon in essex, most of the seats were won by ukip when last fought for micro years ago. nigel

we have not seen peak corbyn? there is much moer to come and it's going to get even better. legions of supporters agree. labour can do for us. it is about time! the only patch of blue in a north—west sea of red. to grab their high profile targets in london.

. >> jeremy corbyn. >> thank you, mr. speaker. join the prime minister in paying tribute to michael martin, the former labour mp for glasgow, springburn and later speaker of the house. he worked in the engineering industry in glasgow and was active in the then amalgamated union of engineering workers. he and i first met when we were fellow organisers in the national union of public employees in the 1970s, campaigning for decent public sector pay and a national minimum wage. michael loved the community he represented and loved his family, and our deepest thoughts and sympathies go to his family at this present time. mr. speaker, did the prime minister feel the slightest pang of guilt when the home secretary was forced to resign due to the failures of her predecessor? >> can i say to the right honorable gentleman that i think it might be helpful if i first update the house on the actions the government have taken and is continuing to take in relation to the windrush generation. my right honorable friend the home secretary will be ad

when you talk to team corbyn, they say it was a consolidation election. the difficulty is consolidation is the same as standing still, and standing still is not enough to get you from opposition into government. as for theresa may, she can break open the biscuits because she did better than she dared hope, in large pa rt better than she dared hope, in large part thanks to the collapse in ukip with most of that support going into her back pocket. for the lib dems, after the quagmire of the coalition yea rs, after the quagmire of the coalition years, they are clawing their way back, the odd green shoot to be found in richmond and maybe kingston. ukip, they were pretty

i can to pink corbyn happening. -- to peak corbyn.but the film that your party nationally has understood the challenge from changing demographics? let's see what the results and that we may see london has a lubricity, and what you're trying to do is stop the slide. they think the national party understood that challenge ? think the national party understood that challenge? i think we have talked in london that we were successful one we are positive and talking about were trying to accomplish for local communities and when we are open and available party andi when we are open and available party and i think that is probably where the weather in london were cities around the country where it seems to me that is what younger people, by that army in a bind and a 45, i looked for what the —— by that i mean anybody under 45. thank you for joining us. i will bring injohn curtice. i'm wondering before we take a break for the latest news, can we have your thoughts on where we are with these results. over a third of the way now. the first thing

success" in english local elections after tories denied labour the breakthrough which many in jeremy corbyn'sty had predicted. in london, the conservatives hung on to wandsworth and westminster, and retook barnet, where labour has faced an anti—semitism row. let's cross live to wandsworth, and to our chief political correspondent vicki young. this was the first stop for theresa may today as she came here to wandsworth. i wouldn't say it was a celebration, it was more relief for conservative activists. it was pretty close and they came close to losing the council to no overall control. they did actually lose eight seats here and wandsworth as a

claiming its exclusive here about jeremy corbyn under fire from his own mps.e backbench labour mps have written for day calling for labor to back the second referendum on the brexit deal. it‘s interesting because there‘s so done from the government that is split about brexit. it‘s easy to forget that the labour party is deeply divided on what the best way forward is. this is another example of this today. it's is another example of this today. it‘s particularly timely because we have this vote in the house of lords last night where i‘m excitedly they
