that is what we heard from john mcdonnell in the program. nigel farage, leader of the brexit party, another g election and another failure to win a single seat. nigel: but we use our influence and that is the important thing. we are a new party -- andrew: you are a finished 40. you are over as a party. nigel: if we get brexit and we set the thing up and we put it back on track, we have done a good job. i was determined in this election we would use ournc inflto stop a second referendum. that overwhelmingly was behind e decision to stand down 17 seats. jo swinson herself said what we're going to see are dozens of seats where conservatives are either going to win or come very close for a would not have gotten if we were not taking thousand of votes. what i like to have won a few seats? andrew: the pition you find yourself know is it is full steam ahead to a brexit deal you don't want. nige yes, but i would prefer that to a second referendum and althe agony. andrew: you alssaid it is not really brexit. narrator: funding for this presentation is

john mcdonnell there speaking in the last half hour.t we wait for borisjohnson to last half hour. whilst we wait for boris johnson to speak last half hour. whilst we wait for borisjohnson to speak in the north of england. let's listen to this report from a political correspondent nick eardley which does contain some flash photography. back in downing street but with a political landscape that has changed completely. borisjohnson will now lead a majority government, giving him the numbers to make brexit happen, and space to reshape domestic policy too. a message to voters... i say thank you for the trust you have placed in us and in me, and we will work round the clock to repay your trust and to deliver on your priorities with a parliament that works for you. and then i want to speak also to those who did not vote for us or for me and who wanted and perhaps still want to remain in the eu, and i want you to know that we, in this one nation conservative government, will never ignore your good and positive feelings of warmth and sympathy to

shadow chancellor, john mcdonnell, has confirmed he will not be part of labour's next shadow cabinetwing the party's crushing election defeat. we'll all go now. the new leader will come in place, appoint their shadow cabinet — i won't be part of that shadow cabinet — you know, i've done my bit. we need to move on, at that stage, with that new leader. faster journies, news routes and more trains — it's all change on the railways from tomorrow. protesters against italy's far—right party, the league, gather in rome — for what's expected to be the biggest demonstration yet by grassroots activists that call themselves the "sardines". good evening, and welcome to bbc news. the prime minister has visited the north—east of england to thank voters in traditional labour heartlands for backing his party. borisjohnson met with supporters in newly—conservative sedgefield — tony blair's former constituency. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, is coming under increasing pressure to resign with immediate effect after his party suffered its worst election results since the 1930s. our political correspo

jeremy corbyn and john mcdonnell have apologised over labour's "catastrophic" defeat in thursday's election, which saw them lose 59 seats. mr corbyn said he was "sorry that they came up short", while mr mcdonnell told the bbc he "owns this disaster". speaking to the bbc‘s andrew marr, he said it was unfortunate the party hadn't been able to articulate its message more effectively. he also blamed the media's portrayal ofjeremy corbyn — insisting that he'd been demonised "for four years solid, every day". here's our politics correspondent tony bonsignore. three days awn, labour is still trying to work out what went so catastrophically wrong. i'm just sorry that we let people down. in the observer today jeremy corbyn offers an apology. but the labour leader remains convinced that the campaign wasn't a total failure. he says... from the shadow chancellor is this morning, a fuller apology. let me make it clear. it is on me. let's ta ke make it clear. it is on me. let's take it on the chin. i own this disaster. but again i believe that the core message was a good one, and other factors were also

many, including john mcdonnell, think it should be a woman.gue it should be someone who represents a break with the current leadership. wigan mp, lisa nandy, says she is seriously considering running. we have to think seriously about how we rebuild that coalition that has propelled us into power three times in the last 100 years. the lewishams and the leighs and how you speak for both. i think i definitely have a contribution to make, i come from one part of that coalition, i have lived in and represented another part for the last decade. before that election, it is back to business in the commons. later this week, it is the queen's speech and shortly after that, borisjohnson‘s brexit deal is expected to be passed by mps. our intention is to bring the withdrawal bill, the legislation, back to parliament before christmas. this week? ideally before christmas but as as soon as possible would be perfect. obviously those conversations are happening between the relevant parties and the house authorities as we speak. but it is not all plain sailing f

well, john mcdonnell.... do you agree with that? doing so badly it was all down to brexit. do you agree with that7m isa brexit. do you agree with that7m is a lovely and toxic combination of the fact that the message in stoke—on—trent that's been heard by the voters is that the labour party tried to stop brexit and, you know, it would be remiss of me not to mention thatjeremy corbyn has come up mention thatjeremy corbyn has come up on the doorsteps. some people really like him, some people really dislike him, and that has been a turnoff. john is right to say that it is brexit. the labour party had a choice when theresa may presented her deal, you could either have stop the tories or we could stop brexit, and unfortunately some of the siren voices in the shadow cabinet, who have big liberal democrat boats in their seats, decided that stopping brexit and therefore lining themselves up for future leadership bids was much more important than respecting the votes in marginal constituencies across the midlands and

labour's leader, jeremy corbyn, and the shadow chancellor, john mcdonnell, have apologised for the party'seat in thursday's election, which saw them lose 59 seats. mr corbyn said he was sorry they "came up short", while mr mcdonnell said he "owns this disaster". speaking to the bbc‘s andrew marr, he said it was unfortunate the party hadn't been able to articulate its message more effectively. he also blamed the media's portrayal ofjeremy corbyn — insisting that he'd been demonised "for four years solid". here's our political correspondent, nick eardley. thejeremy corbyn era is coming to an end. but what will that mean for labour? how much does the party need to change after its disastrous election? this morning, mr corbyn said he took his share of responsibility. his right—hand man went further. it's on me, it's on me, let's take it on the chin. i own this disaster, so i apologise. i apologise to all those wonderful labour mps who have lost their seats who worked so hard. i apologise to all our campaigners. but that apology only goes so far. the outgoing leadership say they made mistakes b

people in the past have suggested that john mcdonnell capitalism. the past have suggested thatjohn mcdonnell is more focused on that. he is making it clear that the labour message in this election is about public services and creating a more equal society. i want to make sure our economy works for everybody. does that mean overthrowing capitalism? no, it means transforming capitalism into a new form. there is a real debate now, not just into a new form. there is a real debate now, notjust here but in europe and america, but her our economy is feeling the vast majority of our people. so you no longer want to overthrow capitalism? i want to transform... you have gone soft? no, i want to transform it in a way that means we have a much more equal, social, just and much more successful one. the big thing now, i have almost diluted —— to put in my life to it now, is the existential threat of climate change and we have to change our economy to meet that challenge. jo swinson has had a tough few days with the debate over revocation. nicola sturgeon has also

certainly, john mcdonnell, during the labour campaign, he talked about taking part of the treasury up northern powerhouse, putting that into action, and the tory slogan that it seems like was never taken upon. borisjohnson that it seems like was never taken upon. boris johnson having that it seems like was never taken upon. borisjohnson having won a lot of those northern seats will have to do something about that. that would bea do something about that. that would be a good idea. you have got to remember, if you move some of the government up to the north, all of the people who need to be around a government move to the north is well and that would mean investment needed to happen in the north and thatis needed to happen in the north and that is a great idea. the jobs. having that knowledge of the location and putting that into practice in your work will make a massive difference. i think he might do something like that because he seems to be... we all know boris johnson is big on infrastructure projects. any prime minister interested in the legacy is interested in the legacy is inter

john mcdonnell, they looked at him and they saw a man on top of his brief, a bit more competent, andle were worried about very high taxation. if you have another party leader in that vein, are you really saying that centre ground voters will come back to the labour party? is that possible? a lot of these voters did is that possible? a lot of these voters d id vote is that possible? a lot of these voters did vote for labour in 2017, and that excuse has rolled out a lot, but there is some truth in the fa ct lot, but there is some truth in the fact that people did like their ma nifesto fact that people did like their manifesto and, at number ten, we we re manifesto and, at number ten, we were aware of that, because you sought theresa may pushing for the energy price cap and her tone on business and just about managing. borisjohnson business and just about managing. boris johnson says business and just about managing. borisjohnson says he will be spending, and we need to see that we tell, but people don't care about the detail, it is often an instinctive question, do you trust person to

john mcdonnell there. labour and who was to blame for their defeat is under way. boris johnson went who was to blame for their defeat is under way. borisjohnson went to sedgefield today, newly claimed by the conservative party. tony blair had that seat for many years and the outgoing mp, phil wilson, had that seat for many years and the outgoing mp, philwilson, had had that seat for many years and the outgoing mp, phil wilson, had this to say on the reason for losing his seat. well, i never take any election for granted but so many people said to me on the doorstep, "phil, if you had a different leader, i'd vote for you. you'd walk it. there wouldn't be a problem. you'd probably form the next government." so they thought that, and the one thing that was holding them back from voting labour was the current leadership of the labour party, and you can't get away from that. so did jeremy corbyn lose you your seat? yes. has anybody... has he, john mcdonnell, any of the labour top team, been in touch? no, no. i

john mcdonnell there.aken by the conservatives is sedgefield, which had been labour since the 1930s and was the constituency of the former prime minster, tony blair. sedgefield's outgoing labour mp, phil wilson has been speaking to the bbc. well, i never take any election for granted but so many people said to me on the doorstep, "phil, if you had a different leader, i'd vote for you. you'd walk it. there wouldn't be a problem. you'd probably form the next government." so they thought that, and the one thing that was holding them back from voting labour was the current leadership of the labour party, and you can't get away from that. so did jeremy corbyn lose you your seat? yes. has anybody... has he, john mcdonnell, any of the labour top team, been in touch? no, no. no. i wouldn't have thought they would be. and it's... you know, i would never take these elections for granted. i never have and i never would, if i ever stand again. but when it's every doorstep, it's the same issue, then you know you've got

john mcdonnell they are talking to andrew mark this morning. ——andrew marr.nt tony bonsignore told me that despite mr corbyn's apology — the labour leader insisted the party had got some things right. there is not much apologising going on. he said that labour won the argument when it comes to climate change and austerity. he says the ma nifesto change and austerity. he says the manifesto was popular but labour we re manifesto was popular but labour were hit hard by brexit. he also attacked the media as well for the ferocious attacks on him personally. you can read this as a rallying cry to corbynite supporters to what comes next, about the future direction of the party. what he has had to say today hasn't gone down well in some quarters. jess phillips today, who will throw her hat into today, who will throw her hat into to become labour leader, we think, says that too many people are obsessed with the party rather than winning power. then anotherfigure today, lisa nandy, very popular in some parts of the party, she has also written an article that labour has

jeremy corbyn and john mcdonnell apologise to supporters for labour's heavy defeat in the general electionot just to it is only, i own this disaster, i apologise notjust to the mps who worked so hard. nicola sturgeon renews her call for a second referendum on scottish independence, saying the people of scotland mustn't be kept in the union — against their will. you cannotjust lock us in a cupboard and turn the key and hope that everything goes away. a marathon un climate summit in madrid ends in a compromisem in madrid ends in a compromise, leaving many delegates unhappy. a british man has been killed and his son wounded, after being shot during a suspected robbery, outside a five—star

know yet what it looks like it will not bejohn mcdonnell, yet what it looks like it will not be john mcdonnells the factual deputy while he has been labour leader. this was an absolute catastrophe as the daily mirror calls it. a labour supporter, the party result is the worst since the second world war, one of the worst ever. as we said earlier, this is a reflection of the brexit question but alsojeremy reflection of the brexit question but also jeremy corbyn reflection of the brexit question but alsojeremy corbyn and the policies he stood for. the party well now begin a period of reflection to look at what went wrong and labour will have to decide is it going to try corbynism under a new leader or going to make a break and have a new type of politics and new type of personality. a quick look at the ijaz the last one for now. battle for the united kingdom against —— the i. a picture of a very jealous cotton, the against —— the i. a picture of a veryjealous cotton, the snp dominated. what is the future of the united kingdom? it all depends on the sort of brexit borisjohnson goes for and the typ

john mcdonnell is doing a speech...ve seen the doubling of the private sector, 10 billion going into the private sector from our nhs. that is money that could be going into our nhs service, but we actually need social care, so free personal care is important. i commend scotland for making sure that that continues. but without a labour government in westminster, we will have more austerity, as the afs have said their manifesto is baked in austerity. so we are not to get that investment in social care that we need stop that acute system that we have got in our nhs and the crisis there. —— ifs. we will free up money adding that, but we have seen two years of negotiations on pharmaceuticals, so they can put more cost on our drugs. there were negotiations. discussions. people can see that, there were discussions and people can see that, why would you discuss it if it was not on the agenda? it wasn't a negotiation, nothing was signed. john mcdonnell is doing a speech about what labour would do in theirfirst100 days if they wi

all this really comes from john mcdonnell to announce that if they don't win a selection that bothjohnid actually put this tojeremy corbyn when they interviewed him on wednesday and said is that true, his slightly interesting reply was "we will win". it did not say what would happen if they would lose. i'd do think that probably if they lose the election badly then yes, they will be off. then the question is, who ta kes be off. then the question is, who takes over? the party doesn't have very many moderates left as far as mps go, and it would be somebody in jeremy corbyn's mold. and interestingly, in one of the other papers, 57% of labour voters say they would expect him to resign if he doesn't win the election. they would expect him to resign if he doesn't win the electionm would be astonishing to go through if he had lost two elections. ed miliband went after one. patient data from gp surgery sold to the united states, according to who? this is, it's research that has come out for the observer. i think it is a slightly misleading headline and it is slightly panic inducing, because it

jeremy corbyn said he was sorry they "came up short" — and john mcdonnell said he "owns this disaster corbyn era is coming to an end, but what will that mean for the labour party? how much does it need to change after its disastrous election result? this morning, mr corbyn said he took his responsibility. his right—hand man went further. it's on me. let's take it on the chin. i own this disaster. so i apologise. i apologise to all those wonderful labour mps who've lost their seats who worked so hard. i apologise to all our campaigners. the battle for the labour leadership is likely to be bruising. because there are vastly different interpretations of what went wrong. some want a leader who will continue with mr corbyn's message, butjust find a better way of selling it. others want a leader who will drag the party back to the political centre. others still want a leader who can appeal to the north, who can say to those labour voters who abandoned the party for the conservatives over brexit, we understand you. there are other big ramifications from thursday's vote, too. independence has

powered this campaign we couldn't have done it without you there has been a remark from a john john mcdonnell the labor's shadow chancellor number 2 to 2 jeremy corbyn he was challenged on a t.v. results program and asked if these results are true then where does jeremy corbyn stand he said we'll see the results in the morning and then decisions will be made the appropriate decisions will be made so what we're seeing now. is out and he went on to say that the reason is for this situation is that bricks it distorted everything and that there was a situation whereby it wasn't necessarily the radical policy is that the neighbor party is proposed even targeting the national health service saying it's going to be an issue that's at the core of the debate and seeming to get some positive responses from electors in the sense that they wanted to see more done more funding put into the national health service it seemed the conservatives were having difficulty in this area but it kept coming round every time the prime minister got into trouble he would repeat this mantra get bricks it done and it's res

rebecca long—bailey thought to be an ally of john mcdonnell, angela rayner, jess phillips, lisa nandyir starmer. .. he is the wrong gender! there is a sense that this could be the push, particularly as they will be in opposition and it looks like they will be in opposition for a serious amount of time. it makes sense to make a change. for a progressive party not to have had a female leader, it is odd. chances are bigger for women. from a leader, it is odd. chances are biggerforwomen. from a northern seat and if not pro—brexit, someone who wanted to deliver brexit, even if they voted remain. i would have thought lisa nandy, if she is serious about it herself, she has chances. angela rayner is also possible. rebecca long— bailey chances. angela rayner is also possible. rebecca long—bailey is interesting. if there is a front runner backed by the john mcdonnell machine, it would be rebecca long—bailey. machine, it would be rebecca long-bailey. the rebecca long—bailey's chances depend on how strong the backlash is against corbyn sm and the corbyn easter have heard across the country have c

has he, john mcdonnell, any of the labour top team, been in touch? no, no.ranted. i never have and i never would, if i ever stand again. but when it's every doorstep, it's the same issue, then you know you've got a problem and you know what the problem is, and to try and disguise it, which i think the leadership of the labour party is now by saying it was brexit or it's the mainstream media, just sort of like, man up, basically, because the problem was jeremy corbyn. it was the worldview that was being promoted by him and his leadership. and we've got to face up to that. and if you complain about the mainstream media and then they find all these stories about terrorism and about hamas and hezbollah, then don't go and talk to them and don't be seen with them and then expect to get the treatment that, you know, not to expect the treatment you've been getting off the mainstream media. so a lot of the stories, there's no smoke without fire, basically. jeremy corbyn said this morning that he won't lead labour into another general election. is that enough right no

john mcdonnell said if the region that he is much more familiar with, with a talk about movements.ent, was described not as a party but as a movement. —— pasoc. that is there problem. who do you think should throw their hat in the ring?|j problem. who do you think should throw their hat in the ring? i have i'io throw their hat in the ring? i have no idea. i mean, i suspect some of them, the middle ranking sort of suggestions, yvette cooper, which she be more attractive? she would be to me. but of course the membership as robert was saying, is extremely left—wing. so it will be extremely interesting. emily thornberry, keir starmer? i think we are looking ahead to a big shift in british politics. it's what is going to happen so that chasm in the middle. let's ta ke happen so that chasm in the middle. let's take a look at what is happening in iran and iraq and syria. well misspoken. you are quite right. this is quite serious. in four targeted areas, against a haswell are formation —— has waller —— hezbollah, which means party of god. something has happened in the history of warfare, i

john mcdonnell, thank you for your time this morning. labour wins the next general election. i back norman smith. brexit has been a key issue for the political parties throughout their election campaigns, but have their claims stacked up? our reality check correspondent chris morris has been examining the main parties‘ biggest promises. well, it was brexit and the unresolved arguments rolling around ina unresolved arguments rolling around in a blot on the selection. inevitably, it's never been far from the surface during the campaign. this is the conservative manifesto. you might recognise the slogan, get brexit done. promising to take britain out of the eu at the end of january. that's just the divorce, not the future arrangements. there will be more. i think some voters might be disappointed that the future negotiations drag on beyond that. theoretically, it is possible to get a trade deal by the end of 2020, but i think there will be difficult. partly because we have to decide what we want and partly because the eu will need to play b

john mcdonnell has rather backed away from this now, though.sibly put forward? some people were hoping for angela rayner but she is more of a moderate in many of her views, and does occasionally say things which are quite pro the policies of tony blair. however, the end avery may throw his hat in the ring and he is a former miner and is pro brexit, but he is waiting to see —— the end avery. that would clearly split the ha rd left if avery. that would clearly split the hard left if that did happen, and there are many candidates who are looking like they may well run like emily thornbury —— the end avery. there is a brutal line that emily thornbury has been sending texts to collea g u es thornbury has been sending texts to colleagues over christmas and they we re colleagues over christmas and they were taking her because out of politeness, so many of them might go behind keir starmer. ian lavery seems to have an unfortunate way of saying things, he said something about grabbing female activists, when will these men learn that these things are not

shadow chancellor, john mcdonnell, has confirmed he will not be part of labour's next shadow cabinet's crushing election defeat. we'll all go now. the new leader will come in place, appoint their shadow cabinet. i won't be part of that shadow cabinet, you know, i've done my bit. we need to move on, at that stage, with that new leader. police in new zealand name the first victim of the white island eruption as krystal eve browitt — a 21—year—old australian. 15 deaths have been now been confirmed from monday's eruption. tens of thousands of people have rallied again in rome protesting against italy's far right party, the league. the protesters pack themselves so tightly into squares they've become known as, ‘the sardines‘. now on bbc news it's time for sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday, with me karthi gnanasegaram and ben croucher. your top stories this saturday evening... the gap grows wider at the top of the premier league as super salah flicks liverpool past watford. but it's a bad day for chelsea, who are beaten at home by bournemouth, while second placed leicester lose gro
