labour ahead. brexit in 2nd place. used to being 1st or 2nd in this constituency now in 3rd place. liberal democrats, green party, and ukip down of that. even if ukip had not existed in all of their votes had gone to the brexit party that still would not have managed to dislodge labour from 1st place. it would have been closer though but not dislodged. but they may have been a recount so not dislodged. but they may have been a recount so we not dislodged. but they may have been a recount so we should thank them for that. you see the big fall in both their votes of labour and conservatives. share of the vote is better because it allows for turnout. it is a better benchmark. a8% of the vote in 2017, as you can see, it is down to 31%. the conservatives got a6 per cent a7% in 2017 and it is down to 29%. it has fallen less than half. the brexit party, who were not registered in 2017, is 29%. the lib dems a times more than the share they got in 2017 so more than the share they got in 2017 so they can take a bit of comfort fr

but what — how can you say that you want labour to win i'm a labour party mp and activist when you doacism at the core of my political endeavour. there was an extraordinary story yesterday in the guardian newspaper yesterday suggesting there was a leak in the united states that reached the washington post newspaper, of a mike pompeo speech, speaking to jewish leaders in the us, where he was asked if the trump administration would worked with thejewish community in the united states if life becomes difficult for them in the uk — the implication being under a corbyn government. in response he said that yes, the us administration would take actions to, his words, "push back" againstjeremy corbyn and do their level best. are you comfortable that you are being quoted and your campaign is being used in the united states by people in the conservative pro—trump movement who want to see the united states do whatever it can to stopjeremy corbyn becoming prime minister? i am deeply depressed by that, but the answer lies in the labour party changing the way it approaches the whole issue of anti—s

but in the end labour got out its court date. labour got out its court date.here but churning out this vote and it worked and it got there majority for lisa forbes. for he came to peterborough jeremy majority for lisa forbes. for he came to peterboroutheremy corbyn said a few words in london and this is what he said. we had a fantastic candidate, a fantastic campaign, and the people of peterborough rejected austerity, and rejected the a no—deal brexit being offered by the brexit party. i am delighted and congratulate lisa forbes this morning. i am on the way to peterborough to tell her that in person. do you know what, she is going to be a bland mp. does this win kill off a second referendum, for labour? this win shows labour has support all across the piece, all across the country. and we are ready for a general election whenever it comes, and we will stop the tories taking this country into a no—deal brexit with all the threats to jobs that go with that. jeremy corbyn, as you can see, is 110w jeremy corbyn, as you can see, is now being chased by a scrum of p

the labour party did.r who want to take as ever further to the right and a harder form of brexit is the competition between them. that would be an utter disaster for us and that is the only deal available. we have tried to mitigate and ameliorate the impact of leaving the european union but it hasn't been successful so we are looking down the barrel of a straight choice, no deal or remain and that has to go to the people and we have to have a referendum on that issue and let the people make their minds up. mr mcdonnell, ifi may interrupt, labour has taken a while to definitively put out that view, hasn't it, about another vote and whether three years on from the european referendum whether people have changed their mind or not, so i wonder whether this result last night and over the course of the night and over the course of the night is our correspondent said sometimes it looked like the brexit party was about to win and at other times labour were more confident and of course labour won the day, but does

it was neck and neck and labour won bya it was neck and neck and labour won by a few hundred votes andd were launched only eight weeks ago today. it's a big, big showing. this was a two horse race in this constituency, us two horse race in this constituency, us against labour and if a few more conservatives had realised that if you really want brexit and you want to stopjeremy corbyn, in seats like this, unless you vote for the brexit party, labour are going to win and that will be a theme that moves on from here. what i am certain of is that the old certainties of 2—party politics are now broken and i think what will happen either way is that as the state of the 31st of october approaches, less than five months away, that is the date we are due to leave the european union and all of these candidates are saying, vote for us, will become prime minister and leave on that date. i promise you this. if you don't leave on that date then the dramatic progress you've seen the brexit party make in the last eight weeks will be nothing compared to what we will do there. the conservatives secured

but over 100 labour mps the labour party. but over 100 labourmps and the labour party. mps and peers have in a statement demanded the decision be overturned claiming, "it is clear to us overturned claiming, "it is clear to us that the labour party disciplinary process remains mired by the appearance of political interference. this must stop. we need a truly independent process. " i wouldn't normally do this but this is so important, the upset and the anger is so great but i think we need to act very swiftly to reassure people we take anti—semitism seriously in the labour party. meeting veterans in hartlepool today before the statement emerged, much of this row centres onjeremy corbyn and the leadership's handling of anti—semitism allegations. labour says it cannot comment on individual cases but takes all complaints extremely seriously. i wasn't involved in the decision at all, it was an independent panel set up through the national executive, they examined the case and they decided to admit him back in, albeit with a reprimand. in may, the equality and human rights com

well, the hrc, we understand, will produce an implementation plan for the labour party, and the labour party can make a start by actually publishing its own response to the hrc, and again, it kind of has it shown any contrition, any willingness to act in good faith? no. always a bad faith act among the leadership, who won't even publish 01’ leadership, who won't even publish or show to its own government body the response that it put into the hrc. now, given that, it's very difficult to kind of have confidence in the way the labour party will respond, but we have to let the hrc play out. the jury at the trial of a man accused of stabbing a passenger to death on a train in surrey has been shown cctv footage of the attack. lee pomeroy was killed as he travelled with his teenage son between guildford and london in january. darren pencille denies murder. sarah walton reports from the old bailey. it was meant to be a fun trip to celebrate his upcoming birthday. but neither lee pomeroy, nor his son, could know what was about to happen. boarding the same carriage was 36—year—old darren pencil

the row over anti—semitism in the labour party has been reignited with 90 labour mps and peers challengingthe decision to readmit mp chris williamson to the party. mr williamson, the mp for derby north, had been suspended for saying the party was "too apologetic" about anti—semitism. but after a hearing by a panel of the national executive committee, it was announced he would be reinstated. among those signing the statement of protest are 11 labour frontbenchers, including deputy leader tom watson. in it, they say... they add... joining me now from westminster is our political correspondent nick eardley. it isa it is a growing row tonight in the labour party over mr williams and's future. what is interesting in that letter is not just future. what is interesting in that letter is notjust these 90 parliamentarians, including the deputy leader attack, mr williams and my previous comments, but they are laying it out the door ofjeremy corbyn now, saying that he has take the decision to suspend mr williamson from the party whip. mr williamson from the party whip. mr williamson is a long—standin

the labour candidate went to jailfor lying.andidate went to jail for lying. the tories are in turmoil and in normal circumstances you would expect labour to romp home, trying to prove it will be the next government. instead, the result is clearly up for grabs, and here we have the issue that labour simply can't escape, of anti—semitism. so the next few days, in the run—up to that by—election, there will be problems with the candidate, lisa forbes, who has apologise for she said mistakenly giving the impression of liking a post saying that theresa may had a zionist, slave master agenda. she also appeared to have praised the facebook thread which said isis was created and funded by the cia and mossad. it will be very hard for labour to escape these problems in the next few days, coming up to the vote, and if labour doesn't win on thursday, it probably opens the door for brexit. that is where it will 90, for brexit. that is where it will go, on current trends, if labour don't win. they expelled alastair campbell for voting lib dem

today, labour said, "peter willsman has been suspended from the labour party pending investigation. of anti—semitism extremely seriously, and we are committed to challenging and campaigning against it in all its forms." ifjeremy corbyn and the labour leadership have a jot of feeling for the jewish community and forjewish labour members and for thejewish labour movement, they need, he needs to expel pete willsman now and for good. and this seniorfigure in the party agrees. if this is not dealt with incredibly effectively, and quickly, and i'm saying 1a days should be the time limit, then is the institution capable of being effectively anti—anti—semitic, or is the institution so sclerotic, in some way, that it might itself be institutionally anti—semitic? there's been no word from peter willsman today. threejewish organisations have written to labour demanding he is expelled swiftly. they contrast his suspension with the rapid expulsion of the former spin doctor alastair campbell for voting liberal democrat in last week's elections. the party now has to decide what to do about peter w

this was labour versus tory., clearly for them to win the tory vote would have to collapse. it would be a massive move from the conservatives to the brexit party in orderfor that from the conservatives to the brexit party in order for that to happen. certainly we don't think the conservatives are in the running remotely. the question is whether it goes labour of brexit. the conservatives held this as recently as 2015 and they are out of the pit to. iain watson at the peterborough account. in for a long night andrew neil and the team will bring you the result in a special edition of this week. i'm delighted that we have by—election specials. the headlines on bbc news: remembering those who help to liberate europe and changed because of the second world war. a day of commemoration. 75 years to the day of the d—day landings at normandy. playing with his son moments before walking up the door for the last time, the inquest into the london bridge attacks from the family of the man who led that terrible incident. ford

let's look at the labour party because we have got the deputies saying that labour hearts are remaint know the leaders hard and where that is. labour being criticised about sitting on the fence, some would say, as they try to keep the two sides, the two views in their party together. constructive ambiguity being unclear, not really saying what they feel and of course that has been blamed for a poor performance in the european elections where labour came third behind the brexit party and the liberal democrats. many labour mps talk about knocking on doors and told by members that they wouldn't be voting labour, they would be voting liberal democrat because of that clear message about another referendum. tom watson has been trying to put pressure onjeremy corbyn and he continued that today. european is who we are and who we have always been. our members are remain. our values are remain. our hearts are remain. and we need our labour party to be true to who we are and be loud and proud in support of europe. of course not all labour mps are in favour of a second referendum. it didn't pass

well, we expect the labour party to act decisively. he isa labour party to act decisively. key figures in the labour party. i expectjeremy corbyn to already have acted and expelled him. and i am horrified that he hasn't done, that he has only been suspended. this man should obviously get out of the labour party, be out of the labour party already. you make the point he is a prominent figure, an important voice in the party, well known to anybody who has been a labour party conference, they will know him, peter willsman as a figure thatis know him, peter willsman as a figure that is very visible, a left—wing activist and campaigner and these issues end up being seen through the prism of which faction you belong to. he is a copper night and that will lead many to say, well, john mann would say that, wouldn't he? this is about racism, it is not the first time he has done it, there is no ambiguity about the slander he has come out about. it is extraordinary. because he gave the game away by very naively saying, oh, off the record. in other words, let me try and get away with it

this policy, which is, and i think many people in labour would admit, has been a bit ofa labour would, trying to keep labour heartland brexit supporters happy while trying not to alienate those people who would back remain in the south and east of england. it has been a very tricky line for them to walk although john mcdonnell been a very tricky line for them to walk althouthohn mcdonnell has over the last few weeks been moving himself towards a possession which is more strongly pro—remain at odds with some in the leadership campaign and this morning he has gone a step further, saying that he thinks labour's possession would become to almost certainly back another referendum. jeremy corbyn said we are moving towards a decision on this. we have agreed we have to go back to the people. we have to go back to the people. we have to go back to the people. we have to go back to the people on any deal or no deal. most probably in a referendum, lam deal. most probably in a referendum, i am almost certain. what attitude should labour take? i have said publicly i would vote remain and campaign

the discussion then is about what attitude should labour take.y i would vote remain, i'd campaign for remain. but that other big beast of labour politics len mccluskey says the party needs to look before it leaps, suggesting john mcdonnell was panicking. i don't believe there is a panic, and my message to everybody is stop panicking. stop putting pressure onjeremy corbyn. he's demonstrating real leadership by seeking a consensus view across our party. jeremy corbyn, change your mind! it is notjust in labour's top ranks where there is a discussion taking place over the party's brexit policy. some members are calling for the party to take a stronger remain position. others say the referendum result needs to be respected. but these two men will be key to how labour finally resolves this tricky debate. the headlines on bbc news: donald trump says it's a "great day for the world" after his walk across the border between north and south korea. a baby delivered after its mother was stabbed to death remains in a critical condition in hospital. two men ha

labour is still doing that now.d to tell the truth about europe. we are more comfortable warning of an ineffable catastrophe because we are hard—wired to be unable to say the words that i've come here to say this morning. the european union is not something to apologise for. it is a good thing. it is a good thing with a capital g. an enduring, deep, benevolent collaboration, between sovereign states, unique in the history of the world. it produced a lasting peace from the ashes of war. it produced prosperity, where there had been deprivation. it produced transnational partnerships, where once there was suspicion and division. it's not perfect, but what large institution is? the core values of the eu are internationalism, solidarity, freedom. those are british values. and they are labour values, too. last week the prime minister theresa may announced that the uk is aiming to be carbon neutral by 2050 — which would mean big changes to how we live our lives. but some people are already making radical choices to lower t

all the experts wrote labour off yesterday. write labour off at your peril!we are very determined to offer that politics that invests in decent services, in decent housing, in decent health care. labour won here in peterborough, but their vote share tumbled from the general election. the key to their victory seems to be an ability to motivate their own core vote, and to bringing activists from other parts of the country from as far away as north wales and the south coast. overnight, as the prospect of victory ebbed away, the brexit party leader kept a low profile, but today he took to the airwaves trying to explain why in an area where six out of ten voters backed brexit in the referendum his party had failed to secure an mp. the labour party don't want to talk about brexit because they're losing votes to the brexit party, votes to the liberal democrats, and the whole brexit issue has become a nightmare for them. the reason labour won is they've been knocking on doors in this town for many, many months, building up their data because they knew this by—electio

labour are events of the last few days. labour a re really events of the last few days. well. there were further reports that people question jeremy well. there were further reports that people questionjeremy corbyn that people questionjeremy corbyn that people questionjeremy corbyn that people are now beginning to lose patience with jeremy collard. diane abbott tweeted that she was losing faith in the brexit policy and these are the absolute inner circle. labour is in a terrible, terrible state. the indications are thatjeremy terrible state. the indications are that jeremy corbyn are not fruit —— fit to be prime minister. we are between the devil and the deep lucy that if an opposition party has minimal chance of winning a general election with an outright majority in the government is in such a terrible mess, that's something very serious about the state of our current lytic situation. let me take you both finally to a nonpolitical story, back to the front rage of the sunday telegraph, the space tourism race. going into space be the only way to get away from brexit. th

labour and they say the new labour mb must be suspended and they don't mean a new labour...g time ago, that ship has sailed. this is another anti—semitism story and there have been a lot of focus on lisa forbes, the new peterborough mp today already. she was forced to apologise during the peterborough by election campaign for social media activity on facebook. mentioning also rupert hock. a new revelation as well that the mp is the report of complaints forformer as well that the mp is the report of complaints for former staff members. she denies that. again, this issue event and semitism the labour party just cannot quite seem to shake off. more significant today was quite a few labour mps were very cool in their response to elaborate by election victory. margaret hodge. and here again louise ellman who says lisa forbes should lose the wit before she even takes up the spot. and the times remind us that the equality and human rights commission is carrying out an unprecedented inquiry into whether the opposition has unlawfully disseminated against dues mac. extraordinary for t

i actually saw a labour mp, this was a year ago, reading a novel during pmqs. show—stopper, the thing you rush away from or cancel lunch dates. it's very dull because we have two very bad players of the game. and we have a very long prime minister's questions, don't we, katy? yes, john bercow likes to let it run on. you see the commons speaker give lots of backbench mps questions. in fairness, i think the backbench questions are where the drama can come from in terms of pmqs. and that's in part because theresa may, i don't think is a very good at pmqs performer. jeremy corbyn isn't either. there's also been a shift in what both sides want to get from prime minister's questions. so, under jeremy corbyn, i think there is a focus on the labour side of getting a clip that they can put on social media channels of him with a message which is aimed at his base. and i think that means that you're not really seeing those exchanges or the oratory you might expect of past. so, well, that might all be over now because in a few weeks' time, we'll have a new prime minister.

what is being said privately about this in the labour party? if nothing else, the labour party?e labour party? if nothing else, the timing is embarrassingm the labour party? if nothing else, the timing is embarrassing. it is, as they are in a problem. peter willsman made these comments in january, and i have heard him say the same thing in september, that was after he was supposed to have been through equalities training. for previous comments that had upset people. off the record chat, not recorded with me, but i believe that he thinks this is true. in that conversation with me he said that america was also behind theirs. it is difficult to interpret whether he thinks it is more mechanical conspiracy and obsolete people are concerned about anti—semitism at face value. peter willsman can a nswer face value. peter willsman can answer on those charges. —— absolutely people are. he is not the only person in private conversations who has these views and sees this as a destabilising effort on behalf of people who do not likejeremy corbyn. he is very close tojeremy corbyn, he is a ver

only a couple of years ago it was 40 odd labour mps and labour wrote a letter tojeremy corbyn demandinge are they going to go? are they going to go to change? are they going to end up go to change? are they going to end up in the wilderness? if you admit to voting lib dem, you get booted out of labour but if you make an anti—semitic comment you are allowed backin anti—semitic comment you are allowed back in within a few months. let's stay with the telegraph. the uk will fail to hit recycling targets, in 2020. which is pretty astonishing, really. it is the result of a telegraph investigation we did earlier in the week. i feel like we all do our bit at home these days. does any of us live in a household where there are not cross looks shot across the dinner table if you haven't take taken the bottle of the milk, or if you haven't ripped off the window in the plastic, but the recycling industry, and business isn't doing its part here. ifeel like there are too many business owners who are sort of sanctioning the paper carry bag instead of plastic, or are putting the recycling mark on their

senior labour figures have criticised his return.g that some of the comments made about his readmission had been "offensive and incredibly hurtful". let's speak to our political correspondent, jonathan blake. remind us how all this started. this goes back to february when chris williamson, an outspoken labourmp on the chris williamson, an outspoken labour mp on the left of the party and staunchly supportive ofjeremy corbyn was found that a campaign event talking about how labour had tackled anti—semitism within the party saying it had given too much ground over accusations and seeing that labour was being demonised as a racist and bigoted party. he was suspended pending an investigation which has now been completed and a labour source told others that he was found to have breached party rules and was given a formal sanction. chris williamson saying this is his name cleared and he has welcomed the decision. that is not how some labour mps see it, not least in margaret hodge who says the decision is appalling and outrageous. he respond

this attempt by the labour to take no deal completely... 0r, labour to take no deal completely... an attempt to stop no deal was defeated by 11 votes. effectively means that, yes, it isa votes. effectively means that, yes, it is a good boost for hardline brexiteers to say they can deliver brexiteers to say they can deliver brexit by threatening no deal. however, i don't think this will be the end of it if it went that way. parliament would have another vote, surely with a speaker biased towards remain in the parliament, that is two—thirds filled with remainer 's, probably they would take further steps of different sorts to stop this. as much as it decides anything, it is tricky for one day but we've seen that in fact the closer you get to the deadline, the more people are willing to take i guess extraordinary constitutional measures. at the moment, lots of people are just about willing to give the conservative party in the new leadership the benefit of the doubt that they might be able to do something sensible. the vote was lost by 11 votes. eight labour party members voted with t

, and that is what constitutes the labour party, actually.re are approaching 600,000. i wouldn't say it's the consensus, but the overwhelming majority of opinion is supportive of the decision to reinstate me into the labour party. but over 100 labour mps and peers have in a statement demanded the decision be overturned, claiming: i wouldn't normally do this, but this is so important, the upset and the anger is so great, that i think we need to act very swiftly to reassure people we take anti—semitism seriously in the labour party. meeting veterans in hartlepool today, before the statement emerged, jeremy corbyn is being urged to show leadership, withdraw the party whip. labour says it cannot comment on individual cases, but takes all complaints extremely seriously. i wasn't involved in the decision at all. it was an independent panel set up through the national executive. they examined the case and they decided to admit him back in, albeit with a reprimand. tonight a member of the panel that ruled on chris williamson's readmission, the mp kei

labour mp stella creasy wa nts a past year. make it fair to lend and borrow for everyone. this is about stopping people borrowing, it's about a stopping people borrowing, it's aboutafair stopping people borrowing, it's about a fair rate for borrowing in the first place. in 2015 the financial conduct authority brought ina cap financial conduct authority brought in a cap on payday lending rates, and this year on what are called rent to own loans, used by people needing help to buy household goods, may be a new tv, fridge or freezer. so could a similar cap be applied elsewhere? the financial conduct authority looks at what is happening in the market and has enormous powers, which they use, to curtail practices that are damaging to the consumer. but what i don't agree with, and it said by some that you should just ban everything. the financial conduct authority told us they are continually supervising the consumer credit market, taking action where they have seen issues. you can see more of fiona phillips's report on panorama tonig

labour said achieving the new target would need huge investment.ted planning in new laws and as with any emergency, we will need significant government intervention to solve it. i do not believe that is ideological, or even party political, it isjust common sense. and that is why it is right at the heart of the labour plan for ushering in a green industrial revolution. so i do welcome today's announcement but i ask the secretary of state, when are you going to start acting in accordance with it? in its advice, the committee said it very specifically that as well as setting the target itself, the government must put in place policies to meet the target. that means as they said, a 2030 cutoff date for new petrol and diesel vehicles, not 2040. a proper decarbonization plan for our 27 million homes which we don't have, and what i believe is now economically illiterate, a moratorium on offshore wind given that it's our cheapest fuel available. so can the secretary of state assure us that henceforth, there will be leadership, notjust on targets, but also

the labour party's deputy leader says the hearts of the labour members are remain.litical editor laura kuenssberg. come on boris! come on! the only glimpse you'll get today. minders driving the favourite into parliament. borisjohnson doesn't want to talk to you or me right now. but to screw—down mps, whose backing he needs. he is very deliberately being kept from scrutiny. he is approaching this important event with seriousness and professionalism and using his time wisely, which is to convince mps to support him. the other wannabes use every chance to make their case. but borisjohnson can't make promises without a price tag for long. every monday when boris writes his column, he makes another pledge for a lot of money, either a tax cut or a spending pledge. the question all politicians have to answer is where is the money coming from? mrjohnson is way ahead of the pack. the other five candidates scrapping over second—place. i think this tory election contest is a chance for all of us to put forward positive ideas for how we can make the country better. mps will whi
