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

it was a lack of leadership that jeremy corbyn did not do so. ago. ack of leadership thatjeremy corbyn did not do so. he goes withjeremy thatjeremy corbyn did not do so. he goes with jeremy corbyn saying, he is terribly sorry to see him go. and that rubs salt into the wounds of those who can genuinely recognise the serious and that seriousness of the serious and that seriousness of the anti—semitism allegations the party is facing. when you talk to labour insiders, do they believe... do they understand the damage this is doing? i think those close to jeremy corbyn, as has been said, it is not a mistake, jeremy corbyn ‘s language. none of us can 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

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

we would have a government of sort of "brexit"eer" but hidden one led by jeremy corbyn. 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 is always had to draw. where if the perception is that they give the uk too good of a deal on "brexit," then the concern is, then you will have "brexit," next it, every other member of the european union saying, i want that deal, if you give that much to the uk. you've seen that line move a little bit. >> right. >> the perception this is so perceptively ugly for the uk, that you can give a little bit more and it actually won't necessarily entice the netherlands or someone es to come along and decide to go down this same road. >> quite right. >> go jump in, matthew. >> sorry, thanks. one quick thing on this parliament vote in the autum

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

what does that mean for theresa may and jeremy corbyn? s, it if you cannot give the government a kicking now, when can you? and government a kicking now, when can you 7 and there government a kicking now, when can you? and there will be questions as to whether we have reached the high watermark of corbynism. because outside of london, in really crucial areas, they have gone backwards in some areas. you could have somewhere like derby, nuneaton, another very interesting, crucial, bellwether midland council, they lost eight seats to the conservatives. and you look at the old tony blair lands, the commuter seats, basildon, swindon, not making progress. and the great victorian london has not happened. in part, that is down to just pour electioneering, they allowed expectations to get way out of hand and they were never going to ta ke of hand and they were never going to take seats like westminster or wandsworth or hillingdon, you need swings of 8%. but they allowed expectations built. in broad terms, if you are sitting in team corbyn, these we

it kind of exposes the inexperience from jeremy corbyn. what about the conservatives?od start in improving the conservative campaign operation which was what really let the party down in the general election and random lewis —— brandon lewis deserves credit. there is a lot more work to be done. what is sitting on the prime minister's and government's desk now is making a clear success of the brexit negotiations and taking the country through that challenge. that is what the country is looking for. on the tory challenge, a problem for them is younger people and cities. housing. unless the conservatives can sharpen up their offer to young people, things like housing, debt, that will continue to be an issue. people, things like housing, debt, that will continue to be an issueli think as well that we absolutely have to move beyond the windrush scandal and the appointment of sajid javid, he will change the position oi'i javid, he will change the position on immigration but this has to be followed on immigration but this has to be followe d u p on immigration but this has to

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

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

it was plymouth jeremy corbyn labour or the tories.outhjeremy corbyn had to travel to to celebrate his body's big win of the night. labour took the south coast cancer from the conservatives. —— council from the conservatives. obviously, i'm disappointed with any places where we lost a bit of ground. but, if you look at the overall picture, labour gained a lot of seats across the country. we gained a lot of votes in places where we've never had those votes before, and we had a very, very effective campaign across the country. a long night in the london borough of wandsworth, once a rock—solid tory council that labour thought it could win. they gained seats but the tories held on, relieved that it had been as difficult as expected. that is the result is a really hard work of councillors, activists, supporters and the revitalised campaign machine. but we won't take anything for granted. we will continue to work hard for local people and we will build on this success people and we will build on this success for the future. cheering tea rs

. >> jeremy corbyn. mr. speaker, could the prime minister explain why she and her cabinet wasted weeks working on proposals that the eu said was unworkable, the foreign secretary described as crazy, and it does she agree with her business secretary who apparently faxed the crazy customs partnership proposal, but made it clear he does not back a technological alternative when he told the bbc that jobs would be at risk if we don't sort out a comprehensive customs deal? [laughter] saysy: what the secretary come up business secretary said on sunday was that it was absolutely right we should be leaving the customs union, and if the right honorable gentleman wants to talk about jobs, i am happy to talk about jobs. half a million jobs lost under the last of labor government, record employment rate under this conservative government. >> jeremy corbyn. >> the government says it has two options. the foreign secretary one is crazy. said therogers technological alternative is a fantasy island, unicorn model. there are t

jeremy corbyn.join me at the same time tomorrow for another round up of all the news from the commons and the lords. but for now, from me, goodbye. julia baird but lots of clear skies with the web looking promising on thursday. lots of sunshine on the way up to that to be start and to the weekend, the weather is looking good across most of the uk. let's look at the forecast over the next few hours. the lime greens in the south, that means the air is not so cold. temperatures only two or three degrees above freezing in some areas thursday morning. as i say, lots of sunshine around. he is the forecaster thursday morning and afternoon, just a a little bit of there were the cloud here and there but that is pretty much it. after a chilly morning, the temperatures aren't going to get spectacularly high. it takes a little while for those temperatures to rise, 18 in newcastle, the midteens in belfast. it promises to be fine on thursday evening as well. there is deepening looking good too. and in windsor, th

would equally be outraged at the way his son's been treated how far does your friendship with jeremy corbyn go back jeremy for more than thirty years before he was an m.p. he was elected in one thousand nine hundred three i remember him as a trade union official who worked side by side with bernie grant who became an m.p. four years later bernie was a part of the black sections campaign of labor party which i led between one thousand nine hundred six and one nine hundred eighty eight and i'm pleased i was able to play a part in the selection and election of the four black impedes in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven that historic breakthrough that gave us black representation in parliament the previously been all white it reflected that the parliament of south africa strangely enough perversely enough yeah there was a breakthrough seen by many and arguably people are saying it's more multi-racial today what did you feel like though and i know this politics of yours goes beyond identity it goes all class what did you personally feel when jeremy corbin was elected leader of the labor par

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

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 party took plymouth from the conservatives but failed to win any of its target councils in london, and lost nuneaton and bedworth. obviously, i'm disappointed with any places where we lost a bit of ground. but if you look at the overall picture, labour gained a lot of seats across the whole country, we gained a lot of votes in places where we never had those votes before. the conservatives celebrate in london, as the party hold on to theirflagship boroughs, but lose trafford, their only council in greater manchester. theresa may says overall it was a good night. we've made progress in places like dudley and walsall, we've taken control of basildon and peterborough. and that's all the result of the really hard work of councillors, our activists, our supporters and our revitalised campaign machine. the liberal democrats have made progress in some areas, taking control of richmond—upon—thames. support for ukip collapses. we'll have the latest analysis from our correspondents across the country. also this lunchtime. an nhs england report into the deaths of people with learni

clearly you do not believe jeremy corbyn get rid of him. 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 that

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

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

s using alleged anti semitism to collab with jeremy corbyn that after the leader of western europe's largest labor movement asked why multinational corporations were threatening to leave the u.k. over breakfast on seventy last week. boss confirmed their space contract will move abroad post rex's and the company has gone on to say it's considering its overall position in the u.k. because of the government's complete lack of clarity theresa may replied by referencing a forthcoming white paper of information. she says we'll explain everything he would even if i don't like paige i don't know why it's. interesting though that corbin should have a name checked abbott's leaving the u.k. because it was in the news that day because the w t o ruled it was illegally subsidized by the e.u. and their bus was also in the news because of its contract with the islamic republic of iran lives are lost so iran alleges because of sanctions that prevent iran buying new planes and parts donald trump though has ripped up the iran nuclear deal violating its terms russia's sukhoi company is reportedly alread

jeremy corbyn accused of cowardice. yeah. they accused of cowardice. yeah. of that, according to this observer piece because they haven't supported his attempts to delay things in the lords. all of this on the back of the local election results which were seen by some anyway as not very effective as far as labour is concerned. i think it's slightly unfair. labour started out from a high watermark. maybe they raised the levels of expectations too high and thought they would get these various councils in london and they didn't. on the other hand, if you can't do better than that up against a government who have suffered this many setbacks, maybe they aren't much of a chance. alex campbell himself doesn't have very record himself. i think the brexit spokesman for labour does his best to bring some clarification commitment that actually we need jeremy corbyn now to do his duty and come out with a clear statement. because this is a mess which can only be clarified when leadership... and i think that this is where its cable has been clear. i am not a lib dem that

or killed by british armed israeli forces not one question was asked about the carnage in gaza jeremy corbyn instead asked about britain's possible imminent economic isolation from the e.u. whilst your government does the dutch government has now begun training the first batch of extra customs officials to deal with the reintroduction of customs checks with british goods a dutch borders in october the prime minister the facial spokesperson said h m r c . o two the right only general completes his question more quickly if member states show. the shouting couldn't have come from corbin's m.p.'s who are members of labor friends of israel who had to take down a pro i.d.f. tweet corbyn never even asked about the atrocities on monday here's how may replied they said they would tackle anti-semitism promise broke. it is only the conservative party that can be trusted by the british people to deliver a correct that is in the interests of british people to deliver opportunity for all of the britain that is for the future to resume their like his own blair identities using alleged anti semitism to clob

jeremy corbyn says the local election results leave labour well placed to win the next general electionwon control of several councils and had their best result in the capital since 1971. the party did however, fail to capture several key targets from the conservatives. the party's former spin—doctor, alastair campbell has criticised the leadership and said labour should at this stage be destroying the tory party. we're kidding ourselves if we think these election results are good. i think what i've been arguing for todayis think what i've been arguing for today is not living in denial of real questions and real problems they want labour to address, but face up to them. it's not undermine jeremy corbyn to say that out there in the real world people are asking the question whether he could be prime minister. they are asking whether the shadow cabinet is 18, whether the shadow cabinet is 18, whether we are doing the right thing and brexit, whether we have the right positions on foreign policy, whether we are taking anti—semitism seriously. these are real questions. if you look at the way

rs can do is that nearly half of the voters would think that the economy would be weaker if he jeremy corbynme 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 confronted them,... because they are losers. i think we struck a bit of a nerve here. i am sure javid will take it on the chin. how much empathy will you have as a first bm ae or british pakistani, home secretary but that is yet to be seen or how relevant it is yet to be seen or how relevant it is necessarily. not surprising. ar

jeremy corbyn saying it is the right thing to do.ighted with the official photographs taken by alexi lubomirski. joining me now is the the award—winning royal photographer, ian pelham turner. he didn't take those pictures, but he is an award—winning royal photographer. your name easier to pronounce than his. yes, i'm glad you said it and not me. there is one, with all the generations. talk us through that photograph. you see the reality, this photographer has done two good things. he has kept all the children smiling. that is a royal essential. two w the close up shots of meghan he has got her preferred side. you can't get any better than that. i think a photograph like this it shows all the different ages, it has natural smiles to it. charlotte's looking a little pensive. but in the second shot that was there as well she is smiling. pictures like that are hard to do. meghan's mother at the heart of it. yes, it is always very hard to keep the concentration of the royal family going. different photographers have used different things.

jeremy corbyn is a polarising figure, this text into the phone in, i voted conservative because of myhis cronies. is he a plus oi’ corbyn and his cronies. is he a plus ora minus? corbyn and his cronies. is he a plus or a minus? he can 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 ch

"get back in your box, woman." this is not acceptable. the campaign is over. usually this programme is where we can sit back more objectively than in the campaign itself to see the results. of course... of course there will be party political banter, but the reality is this. we are seeing results tonight but reflect what is happening in the polls nationally. let me comment on the wharf in stone... waltham forest result. if it was a six—point swing to us it is remarkable. there might be local factors, and if we see across london,... let's talk be local factors, and if we see across london, . .. let's talk about another possible target, plymouth. martin. tell us about plymouth and what you think is happening there. plymouth unusually in the south—west tends to be a fight between the tories and labour and they went into the election neck and neck with just two seats needed to change hand for labour to take control from the prese
