gove this evening, no sentiment. he is decided that michael gove has got to go. johnson is not going to hang around waiting for conservative mps who are attacking him. he is not ready to play nice with them. he feels he has this mandate to get brexit done. that connection to him is sounding more important than the connection between him and some of his conservative party colleagues. it came through in prime minister's questions. it is certainly coming through in the extraordinary briefing you just read out on the reason that michael gove has to go. it is brutal stuff, politics, but how mr. johnson is behaving should come as -- should not come as a surprise. when he has come up against moments of pressure, he has seen off people getting in the way without any sentiment. laura: we will be getting more on this developing story at the end of the program. one of the biggest war times -- war crimes investigations of all time is underway in ukraine appeared some of the worst crimes took place in booch or -- bucha. as our corresponnt reports, there is psychological devas

just look at the housing reforms michael gove _ like this? michael gove was supposed to bring forward. i think there was one commons minister left in the leveling up the apartment now. i think that gives you your answer. okay. joe twyman and geri scott will be back again at 11:30pm. goodbye for now. it set to return however as we move into the weekend and next week it might get a little bit too hot for some. but it's all about the high pressure at the moment and that is going to stay with us for quite some time. we do have a few nuisance but we can can for us, not really producing that much of rain but it does mean a cloudy grey start for many on thursday morning. the differences across england and wales that cloud will melt away and eccentric come through, sunshine for eastern scotland may be just the far northwest of scotland and the north coast of northern ireland saying cloudy and a little cooler. top temperatures expecting at 25 degrees on thursday afternoon, that 77 fahrenheit warmer still as we head into the weekend and with plenty of

the prime minister also sacked michael gove, once a very loyal supporter, who turned against him. but the opposition labour leader, sir keir starmer, said the prime minister was in the dying act of his career. anyone quitting now, after defending all that, hasn't got a shred of integrity. mr speaker, isn't this the first recorded case of the sinking ships fleeing the rat? also in the programme: japan plans to pump water from the fukushima nuclear plant into the pacific, we'll hear from the fishermen protesting the move. translation: ”rotestin the move. ., wa nts translation: the government wants to release _ translation: the government wants to release contaminated l wants to release contaminated water into the sea. we do not trust them and we do not feel safe. live from our studio in singapore, this is bbc news — it's newsday. welcome to the programme. the british prime minister borisjohnson is continuing to defy calls for him to resign from some of his most senior colleagues, who believe he has clearly lost the confidence of most of his mps. mrjohnson has been inside number 10 m

in sacking michael gove, it seems as though boris johnson has taken back some of the initiative. reporter: certainly nobody expected that sacking, although nobody expected the huge numbers resigning over the last 24 hours. after michael gove's sacking, because we are led to believe he had told boris johnson that the time had come for him to go. his parliamentary private secretary also resigned, adding to those numbers. of course the prime minister's allies are saying he has the numbers, he has the personnel around him to fill all those vacancies. but it is hard to see how he can do that. in the last couple of hours, one of boris johnson's parliamentary private secretaries has been insisting he will carry on and that he has a mandate from 14 million people, and the briefing is that next week the prime minister and his new chancellor will present a new plan to revive the economy. new tax cuts believed to be on the way. this is all something nobody would have predicted even at the beginning of wednesday. boris johnson clearly being urged by cabinet colleagues throughout the day to g
