this morning's reviewers are sian griffiths and james millar. good morning. the former defence secretary gavin williamson has strongly criticised theresa may's cross—party brexit talks with labour, calling them a "grave mistake". writing in the mail on sunday, mr williamson, who was sacked over a leak from the national security council, described the discussions as "politically naive". a downing street source said mr williamson had been supportive of the brexit strategy while he was in cabinet. our political correspondent, jessica parker is here. theresa may sacked gavin williamson and he is proving to be a bit of a thorn in the side already of the prime minister. a lot of people were awaiting after he was sacked, and he denied any involvement with that leak, waiting to see what kind of response he would come up with. would he retire quietly to the backbenches and not be a thorn in the side of theresa may, or would he come out fighting even further? it seems from this mail on sunday article this morning that he has a few things to say about the prime minister

in a moment we'll speak to emma vardy in belfast, and sian lloyd in cardiff, but first let's hear fromor sarah smith in glasgow. politicians here are trying to work out what a new prime minister could mean for scotland. nicola sturgeon has wasted no time in saying a new tory leader could strengthen the case for scottish independence. she says if a hardline brexiteer takes over, if there is a prospect of the uk leaving the eu with no deal, it makes it all the more important scotla nd makes it all the more important scotland should be given a chance to decide whether it wants to be an independent country. that is why scottish tories will be looking for a leader and refused to allow another referendum on scottish independence. the leader of the scottish conservatives, ruth davidson, said she will back a candidate who says they are deeply committed to scotland remaining in the uk and she is looking for somebody who would be a unifier, who could bring the whole country together again. in northern ireland it was those issues thrown up by the irish border during the brexit negotiations that b

the co—leader of the green party, sian berry, spoke tojohn pienaar earlier this morning about what thery one wants to sound green on climate change. it's bringing us, bringing people over to us, but people have heard this before from the big parties, and they know that we are the ones they can rely on to take the very fierce action to have the political will to put the real investment into new industries, but also to challenge the old industries, that is where labour particularly is failing. it's saying, you know, we can have airport expansion, well we can't. i'm really sorry. so we are out there dealing with these two big issues, plus i think this is a really important point, we are trying to take votes of the brexit party, other parties are doing all this thing about... everyone is trying to do that. but i think now the polls are showing that we can make gains, the lib dems can make gains as well, we need to put this question to bed and focus on whittling away at that brexit party vote. this week, we will be continuing our series of interviews with meps and leaders from the main part

in a moment we'll hear from emma vardy in belfast and sian lloyd in cardiff.nd editor sarah smith. politicians here are trained to work out what a new prime minister will mean for scotland. nicola sturgeon has wasted no time in arguing that a new tory leader could strengthen the case for scottish independence. she says the prospect of a hard—line brexiteer taking over the prospect of the uk leaving the eu with no deal means it is all the more important that scotland should get a choice about whether or not it wants to be an independent country and thatis to be an independent country and that is exactly why scottish tories will want the next leader to do the same thing that theresa may did and thatis same thing that theresa may did and that is to refuse to allow any further referendums on scottish independence. the leader of the scottish conservatives ruth davison said she will back a leadership tenet who is someone who shows their deep commitment to scotland remaining part of the uk and someone who is a unifier who can try and bring the whole country together.

let's get some reaction from the green party co—leader sian berry, who joins us from our london newsroom we have gained a lot of new seats and importantly on a lot of new councils where people have never elected greens before, and these are right across the country, in places you wouldn't expect, like south tyneside, sunderland, places like colchester, folkestone, the cotswold, all these different places where greens have never won before but we have broken through to become that new voice, holding the councils to account. we have done that through hard work, our local teams working hard for all the years since 2015 when we last contested these seats and what we haven't reached yet is our defence, the councils, councillors we already had, when we were on quite a high, we had had a green surge up to that year, we had our best ever general election results that year, we are defending those seats but given the results we have had so far it looks like we will do well there too. i can confidently say we will have a record number of greens on a record number of councils at the end of day. some

sian is smiling that i've gone through all those figures. we can add them up in different ways.th the parties that were overwhelmingly drawing their support from either the well of levers or the well of remainers. to parties, overwhelmingly almost entirely supported by leave voters. the brexit party and you keep. total vote 35%. there are three parties. the liberal democrats, the greens and change uk which are in favour of and change uk which are in favour of a second referendum and two according to the polls, their support overwhelmingly came from remain voters. i am leaving out the nationalists because they were one of the very few parties that were successful in getting quite a lot of leave voters as well as remain voters. let us stick to the three parties that are pro second referendum and overwhelmingly being backed by remain voters. i think the honest truth is, first, reminding people just how polarised the public are on this issue and indeed, most leave voters will prefer to leave without a deal. but most remain voters are very attracted by the idea of a second referendum
