theresa may reflected that she and mr corbyn were very different politicans.ent all but one of my years in this house on the front bench trying to implement the policies i believe in. he has spent most of his time on the backbenches campaigning for what he believes in, often against his own party. but what i think we both have in common is a commitment to our constituencies. but perhaps i could finish my exchange with him by saying this — as a party leader who has accepted when her time was up, perhaps the time is now for him to do the same. a former labour backbencher agreed with those comments onjeremy corbyn. about his need to consider his future. and can i tell her this as well? hold on, hold on. can i tell her this as well? it is absolutely clear to me that the vast majority of labour mps agree with her too. mr speaker, the prime minister elect has no mandate in scotland, he has no mandate from the people, the government he is busy forming has no mandate in scotland. mr speaker, scotland deserves better. i think the prime minister is a thoroughly good egg

imean, do than they have been to theresa may?ition parties, one would imagine. no, it is extraordinary to think that he might do in three months what theresa may has done in three years, and he faces a massive uphill battle on that front, because positions have hardened. the ministerial resignations, even before he was announced as leader, showed just how much, you know, mps in his own party have hardened against the stance that he looks like he will take. so from that point of view, it really is going to be quite difficult for him to try and bring some kind of consensus. that said, we have seen extraordinary happenings in british politics over the past few years, maybe he can pull a rabbit out of the hat, but he has got a very, very short time to do so. and we still don‘t know what he plans to do that is different from what theresa may has been trying. how important will be cabinet appointments pay, the overall make—up and balance of the cabinet, in terms of trying to help him pull the rabbit out of the hat? really important — f

so i think theresa may struggled.isjohnson. so you don't think is going to be able to unite his party, you don't think is going to be able to pick up many labour mps. so where are we with no—deal? in your view, how likely is that looking now? i think in the autumn mps are going to be wanting to use whatever mechanisms they have at their disposal to signal their resistance to that and to actually if necessary vote for resistance to that. that then leads to questions of what the precise mechanisms they have got. how can they get this stuff onto the agenda? there are various things being mooted. one is to use an emergency debate and standing order 2a to try to get a vote on no—deal. that's a bit controversial, because normally you don't have votes of substance on those kinds of motions, but the suggestion is that the speaker might allow it in these circumstances. that is one thing. then, ultimately, the ultimate threat, if all else fails as a vote of no confidence in the government. and we are getting the impression that

you could say theresa may shouldn't have gone as faras theresa may shouldn't have gone as far as sheas faras she did theresa may shouldn't have gone as far as she did in that proposal and should have hinted at it. it's a very divisive topic to talk about when a lot of the conservative party vote rs when a lot of the conservative party voters might be people who are slightly older and own their own homes and it would have directly affected them. the problem is, this isa affected them. the problem is, this is a situation that's only going to become more pressing and it's going to take a lot of money to fix. whatever we do to tackle it, it's going to be incredibly expensive. boris will surely fix it! who knows? he's going to fix everything else! this is her legacy, that's on the front of the times, or it may not be. philip hammond, there's an interesting person in our country at the moment. one ally of mr boris johnson quoted in this story say they expect mr hammond to be a nightmare on the back inches, which is where he is headed for sure over the next few weeks. here, mrs may, very co

theresa may came out instead. and wonderful scenes, holding that trophy aloft.was presented by prince andrew to the captain eoin morgan yesterday. the draw happened after 50 overs, 241 runs each, they can be separated, so it went to the super over with 15 runs each. but england won back with more boundaries overall. theresa may repositioning, that trophy looks heavy! they are repositioning for the cameras. and with the squad all around for the photographs, too, what an amazing moment, reminiscent of the scenes in 2005 after england won the ashes. but they don't seem to be as inebriated as they might have been in 2005. i'm sure you remember those scenes. the only hijinks that we might see could well be from larry the cat. let's hope that is the case. and, of course, the cricket squad have walked down that famous street to meet the prime minister theresa may, who was at the final yesterday with a husband, watching that very tense final. such an incredible achievement for the squad but we also saw yesterday a packed lords watching on, the tickets were incredibly di

then, for signing up tories were led by theresa may then, forsigning up and tories were led by theresaagreeing that after brexit british workers should have the same rights as eu workers. this plays into a fear that a lot of remainers have that essentially brexit is a right—wing project, an excuse for thatcherite conservatives to slash workers‘ rights. excuse for thatcherite conservatives to slash workers' rights. working time directive. protected hours between shifts. these are all things that workers really benefit from. one of the reasons why tory eurosceptics do not like the eu because the see this as a burden on employers being imposed on britain. but if you need labour to get you deal through you have to talk positively about workers' rights.|j am sure at number ten will be quick to say this is not government policy. if labour are going to benefit they have definitely lost one vote, that is alistair campbell, the garage and has a story, he says he is finished with jeremy the garage and has a story, he says he is finished withjeremy corbyn‘s labour. —— that guardian. he was alread

more than half the ministers under theresa may have either resigned or been sacked.here are fresh concerns over north korea — after two unidentified projectiles were fired into the sea towards japan according to reports from south korea. it's reported they were fired more than 20 minutes apart. it comes after kim jong un was pictured alongside a newly—built submarine. scientists in the united states say the speed and extent of the current period of global warming exceeds any similar event in the past 2,000 years. the warning comes as western europe swelters in the second heatwave of the summer. now on bbc news, wednesday in parliament. hello there, and welcome to wednesday in parliament, where theresa may bows out to applause at the end of her last pmqs. and that duty, to serve my constituents, will remain my greatest motivation. applause. but there are reservations about her successor. outgoing american presidents get to pardon anybody they want. if she could, would she pardon her successor for sabotaging her premiership? also on this programme, urgent action after

the contrast with theresa may could not be greater just contrast with theresa may could not be greaterjusts, and partly because conservative backbenchers behind him was so enthusiastic, they love his optimism, the fact he talks about delivering brexit, of course they are excited, they have been given a cabinet in their own image. the interesting thing is the tory mps who did not speak out today, there were not many on the remain side of the argument who asked questions. some of them were at the cricket. the questions will be, how will they react in the coming weeks and months? ispoke will they react in the coming weeks and months? i spoke to one cabinet minister was sacked yesterday who said they are willing to give boris johnson a chance because he is talking about the fact he wants a deal, he says that his preference, and that is true, he will be working for a deal. the problem will come if that cannot happen, and those cabinet ministers and others who are so cabinet ministers and others who are so against no deal will have to decide what they do about it. there is no doubt that although

there will be tributes to theresa may and her diligence and sense of public due ty. e house of commons. i don't think we will see that moment of applause. for her, a very emotional moment. this is how it all ends. this is the end effectively of her premiership. we will get a few words from her in downing street, before she goes to see the queen. this is her grand end toa see the queen. this is her grand end to a protected depart xhur. we have had a few moments when she has said goodbye. let's cross over now because it is blast off time. mr speaker, this morning i had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. following my duty is a nice house, i shall have an audience with the queen this afternoon. i shall then continue with my duties in this house from the backbenches where i will contain to be a member of parliament for maidenhead.|j profoundly disagree with many of the decisions the prime minister has made and many of the things she has said. but! made and many of the things she has said. but i do recognise that she does have a respect for public service and

that arrangement was with theresa may. they feel they need to renegotiate their confidence apply with the new prime minister, boris johnson. math as it have the stands. the former attorney general, he is not the only one. he looks likely to be accompanied by people like the , philip chancellor hammond,d, who announces resignation live on sunday. there will be others. there will be an attempt. that they willed vote for their country as opposed to their party. there is going to be real fireworks. work onviting them to brexitit. can he do o it? >> catherine nicholson was liststening to those words from boris johnson with great interest. has there been r reaction frfroe eu? >> early reaction from michellee garnrnier. -- michelle barn yay -- michelle barnier. he specifies he works on facilitating the ratification of the withdrawal agreement and achieving an ordederly brexit. perhaps some wishful thinking there. he says we are ready to rework the political declaration, the acaccompanying document that cae with the withdrawal a a

so what could be next for theresa may? re. teresa may as a personality i suppose it is quite a private and guided person and doesn't let on my guided person and doesn't let challenge is likely to do, do you have any suggestions for her? there are four models and he spoke about a few of them and there's going on and staying and is that keep the model and he took for 26 years and became father the house and grumbled about his successor, and the other model isb his successor, and the other model is b alec douglas hugh model, where you stand down, as prime minister and come back in another cabinet and he became a successful foreign secretary. i'm not sure theresa may is going to come back to the cabinet. i suspect she's a parliamentarian a hike but bear in mind, she's been on the front bench now since 98, 21 years. and to get back into life on the back bench is going to take some getting used to, and david cameron i remember are the only appearance he made was walking in and sat for about ten minutes looking bored and walked ou

any prime minister that will give them honours, it is theresa may. ty of the year. will there be an impact from this? this was on terrestrial, seen by millions, so the hope is that will rub off on younger generations and kids at school, both genders, wanting to learn cricket? when you've got a world cup winning team, there is an impact on youngsters thinking that could be me in decades to come. that's one of the points theresa may made at this reception. she said 8 million people watched it on terrestrial television, and she wanted youngsters to be inspired to pick up a bat and play cricket for the first time. she doesn't have much longer in downing street, so it isjeremy hunt or boris johnson, in downing street, so it isjeremy hunt or borisjohnson, and they've been having another debate tonight and according to the sun, love and peace has broken out between the two of them. not sure about that! i think the start of the debate was quite testy. jeremy hunt said boris johnson is someone that puts a smile on yourface but johnson is someone that puts a sm

theresa may has just left the houses of parliament after her last prime minister's questions.ing here around buckingham palace. well, we will come back to those pictures in a moment, but we are going to go to... we need to find out, obviously, what kind of government borisjohnson find out, obviously, what kind of government boris johnson is find out, obviously, what kind of government borisjohnson is going to form. the derbyshire spa town of buxton was split down the middle in the 2016 referendum, voting leave byjust half of 1%. so what will the voters in this marginal seat make of the new prime minister? judith moritz sent this report. buxton's political colours are a little like the classic cars on show. the town is a marginal seat close run between blue and red macro, labour currently holds power here, but some of these car buffs are also borisjohnson enthusiasts. tell me what you think of the new prime minister. i don't think we would get any better person. you are afan? why would get any better person. you are a fan? why is that? ijust would get any better person. you are

but theresa may is singular going to enjoy this boris, good luck. she had a smile on herface.is inside the sun, today's papers leaving a chipper saying that the eu red tape was harming british kipper producers, wielding this fish but according to the sun, he has now had according to the sun, he has now had a snack. boris johnson did not get the full detail of this quite right, waggling this dead fish around on stage and telling everyone how outrageous it was that the eu was forcing our fishermen to use pillows, terrible regulation, it is british regulation it is our own idea and there is a really good reason for because of you transport these fish, they can contract the disease that is very bad for peoples health it's a maybe it is not the worst regulation in the world for us to come up with. will he be embarrassed by this? it was embarrassing anyway, even if it hadn't been the case, it was embarrassing they was waving a dead fish on stage. a few years ago at the conference, he was waving a break around talking about house building and saying that you will not be alone, brick.

that is a bill that theresa may published and was u nfortu nately rejected theresa may published and but in fact the only way to get to that point is by voting for the withdrawal agreement bill which contains a number of key concessions to the labour party. so a more realistic approach would be a jeremy corbyn way to say to the new prime minister table withdrawal agreement bill and we will vote for that at second reading and when it gets to committee stage we can have a debate and vote on whether that should be put to a second referendum. that would be a more pragmatic and realistic weight to ta ke pragmatic and realistic weight to take this forward. but what many labour party members are saying is that they want clarity and they want the party to be a party of remain and if they had been and remain parted they would have done better in the european elections where the liberal democrats cleaned up with that vote. this joy the last three yea rs has that vote. this joy the last three years has been and many others saying what they want and why they wa nt saying what they want and why t

almost eve ryo ne where theresa may failed?ound the backstop, not to get rid of it, but to somehow make it irrelevant. can you come up with something else that means you don't need to use the backstop? .2 is if that is not possible, those conservative mps that were sacked yesterday or have been consistently against no deal and are prepared to vote against the government, when push comes to shove, are they prepared to vote down the government, costing them their own careers and potentially risking jeremy corbyn getting into number ten? are they prepared to do that? it only takes around five. so that? it only takes around five. so thatis that? it only takes around five. so that is the key moment in september that is the key moment in september that will make or break boris‘ premiership. tom, good to talk to you, thank you. that was the morning briefing. now it is time for sport, let's head to the bbc sports centre andjoin let's head to the bbc sports centre and join holly hamilton. i'm not sure what you have got on your agenda to

you voted for it theresa may's deal. do you think borisjohnson theresa may's deal.deal. do you think borisjohnson can get a better deal? do you seriously think that? we have seen messages coming out of the eu, they want to do a deal. they have got to recognise the deal as was structured was defeated by the house three times so something has got to change. if there can be meaningful change. if there can be meaningful change in that agreement we have an opportunity to get it through the house which i think is what most people really want but if not, it has to be the case that we are going to leave on the 31st of october. so you are prepared for a no—deal brexit? you have said in the past it is not your preferred outcome.” brexit? you have said in the past it is not your preferred outcome. i do not want to leave without an agreement but myjob in government is making sure we are ready to leave with or without an agreement on the sist with or without an agreement on the 31st of october. we have to do that. but the point i have always said is if you are not prepared to vo

of work on funding for the theresa may did a lot of work on funding forthe nhs, climate theresa maythey work in terms of defence and foreign affairs, that should continue. there has been a lot of talk about her defining some sort of legacy, and borisjohnson will not be looking backwards put forward, and in the centre is brexit. the media focus will rightly be on that, and the new prime minister's focus will be on that, 100 days to the deadline, but in the leadership campaign, which i think the conservatives and brandon lewis deserve credit for running a fantastic leadership campaign, lots of excellent undies and strong candidates, focusing on policing, is a london mp macro, justine, will agree that it is crucial that we follow through in terms of the investment in police, because the british people are asking, particularly in london for more action on that. that will be the sort of thing that can happen with the team that he puts around him. as harriet is saying, kulveer, lots of ideas that he has spoken about on the campaign trail, the extra police, increasing the starting point fo

guarantee when that would happen and there are some conservatives who fear that a similar message to theresa may hunt may be ready to kick the can again. our reality check correspondent has been following what they have been saying on brexit and joins us now. brexit was a major pa rt and joins us now. brexit was a major part of both interviews and will be quy part of both interviews and will be guy was a was to have a renegotiated withdrawal agreement for october. at the end of october even though the eu has said consistently that the current deal is not up for renegotiation. in fact, jeremy hunt said he hopes to reach a new deal by the end of september to give him time. to get it through parliament. but don't forget he's part of a government that has already accepted that the withdrawal agreement cannot be reopened. persuading the eu to suddenly change its mind looks like a tall order of towering proportions. but the one thing we know both candidates say they want to change is the backstop plan for the irish border. mr hunt was asked if that would be enough. i think it would broadly make a deli

prime minister's questions at 12pm, sue theresa may gets herfinal minister's questions at 12pm, sue theresa street tonight. then off to the queen, we get a statement at downing street tomorrow afternoon from borisjohnson, and then it gets frenetic. the top jobs tomorrow afternoon and evening, then the junior roles on thursday. out we will cover it all you forjoining good night. bye-bye. the heat really building today, hotter than yesterday, and this turn out to be a record as well. we do have some cloud around, particularly in scotland, that is breaking up, most in scotland, that is breaking up, m ost pla ces in scotland, that is breaking up, most places seeing blue skies and high temperatures as well. particularly across england and wales, in land, over30 particularly across england and wales, in land, over 30 degrees, with a peak of 35 in the south east of england, around 110. that heat and humidity will spark thundery downpours. that will arrive across the channel islands through this evening, up towards wales, through the midlands, not far away from southeast england and east anglia, th

he says he'll succeed on brexit where theresa may failed.e're going to fulfill the repeated promises of parliament to the people and come out of the eu on october 31st, no ifs or buts. but he'll face obstacles. climate change protesters in his path today — but there'll be opposition on brexit too — even within his own party. an ambition achieved — inside number ten as prime minister. this evening we'll know some of those who'lljoin him around the cabinet table. mrjohnson says the work starts now. there were pledges on the police, on the nhs and on schools. for theresa may, three turbulent years in charge are over — but she has no regrets. to serve as prime minister of the united kingdom is the greatest honour. the heavy responsibilities are outweighed by the huge potential to serve your country. also tonight — it's hot today and will be even hotter tomorrow. the met office says we could hit an all time record tomorrow — there's fun to be had, but the nhs is warning about the risks too. and in sport on bbc news, ireland embarrass england at t

so theresa may has for the last few yea rs theresa may has for the last few years looking nervously over people like jacob rees mogg, if it is prime minister johnson as we expect and make you be looking at philip hammond or david gauke people who reeked of the semi cement if you like in the conservative particles up there with that as a couple met and they are going to become the rebels or they could become the rebels. so the prime minister or indeed jeremy hunt but especially borisjohnson could have this problem because of how a switch that he has been about a no deal breaks it will face many of the same problems as theresa may. so a change of personnel but similar problems to wrestle with. and that deadline remains october the 31st at the moment. and so from boris johnson's perspective, we noticeably very significant about that they will happen. he has said the uk will leave the european union on its over sist leave the european union on its over 31st with or without a deal. so what has to happen between now and october the 31st? three things, all of which will be quite something. eith

theresa may mocked him. put a motion to abandon no deal, to take it off the table, through, into this house, the trouble is, when it came to the votes that mattered, when it came to the votes that would actually have an impact on stopping no deal, the labour party whipped against them. absolutely typical of the right honourable gentlemen, all mouth and trousers! this government, mr speaker, is now an irrelevance. the two candidates to succeed, the two candidates to succeed her have only got fantasy plans. since she and her successors have no answers, doesn't the prime minister accept the best thing to do would be to go back to the people, and let them decide which way we go? theresa may responded with a question of her own. where does the labour party stand on brexit? the shadow brexit secretary doesn't support brexit. the shadow foreign secretary doesn't support brexit. the shadow chancellor doesn't support brexit. the labour deputy leader doesn't support brexit. labour want to block brexit. and that would

what some suggest theresa may may try to do is balance remain and leave.as well but the big prominentjobs are all exeter jobs but the big prominentjobs are all exeterjobs and the complexion is one of a brexiteer leave cabinet. was that a mistake of theresa may? to balance these competing interests when she should have been more ruthless? her mistake was nobody thought she was on her side. i got called a liar for saying that theresa may was a remain. remain as i convinced she is a brexiteer and brexiteers are convinced that she is a remain it. it seems... both cannot be true. so it seems she could have convinced either side that she was on their side which was a proper failure of communication. there are two stories about reconciliation. one is boris johnson two stories about reconciliation. one is borisjohnson is bringing michael gove up in the food chain. he will now be deputy prime minister. and this heals an old wound from the leadership campaign after the 2016 referendum. and also michael gove has been one of the most prominent advocates of mrs may's d

. of modern times, has taken over as prime ministerfrom theresa may.has wasted no time in putting his stamp on government in what has been described as the most brutal ministerial reshuffle in decades. i7 ministers have left the cabinet, making way for a much more pro brexit team, as mrjohnson repeated his pledge to take the uk out of the eu by the 31st of october. the dark before dawn. politics needs light and shade. decisions are complicated. judgments subtle. but now, we will all wake up every day to a leader who paints the boldest of brushstrokes, a man who divides and inspires, entertains and enrages. even for those who adore him, a year ago boris johnson's journey to the palace would have been the kind of wild story he might have written. rarely without mishap, he was blocked by protesters on his way. now, the politician who is a boy said he wanted to be world king, invited to become prime minister by the queen. the moment where everything officially changed. bowing to the monarch. there are some rules he will follow. everyone knows the many char

can you imagine theresa may dangling for lawn from a zip wire?to be this change of personnel and yet so many of the fundamentals will stay the same. so mrs may looked nervously over her shoulder at the likes of jacob looked nervously over her shoulder at the likes ofjacob rees—mogg, looked nervously over her shoulder at the likes of jacob rees—mogg, the brexiteer, and mrjohnson if he wins will look over his shoulder probably at the likes of philip hammond and david gauke, opponents of a no—deal brexit. rebels whose capacity to be awkward is turbo—charged because their party has a barely existent majority. so after the formalities of the handover of power and the rhetoric of a new prime minister, there are those core unchanged fact, a withdrawal agreement the eu says is closed and parliaments has its hates, a deadline getting very close and a prime ministerfacing loud opposition in parliament. the big question is can borisjohnson if it is him succeed where theresa may failed, and if you can, what does success failed, and if you can, what does succ

in her last speech as prime minister, theresa may has warned that british political discourse is beingpeaking at chatham house in london, mrs may said there had been a "coarsening" of debate which could be pushing the country to a "much darker place". her speech this afternoon came ahead of the final hustings between the two candidates vying to replace her as leader of the tory party and prime minister. mrs may warned that we cannot take our values for granted. both domestically and internationally, in substance and in tone, i'm worried about the state of politics. that worry stems from a conviction that the values on which all of our successes have been founded cannot be taken for granted. they may look to us as old as the hills, we might think they will always be there, but establishing the superiority of those values over the alternatives was the hard work of centuries of sacrifice. and to ensure that liberal inheritance can endure for generations to come, we today have a responsibility to be active in conserving it. if we do not, we will all pay the price — rich and poor, strong an

michel barnier reiterating for the eu has said throughout, the withdrawal agreement as it stands, theresa maycalled, is what the eu is sticking to that's a great, the eu says between the eu and the uk, not mrs may, and is the product of gravity, this is where the final solution has come to rest but where there is room for manoeuvre, on the political declaration, that is the non—binding second document that could be reworked, the eu says. the problem for mrjohnson is that doesn't go nearly as far as what he has been promising in his leadership campaign, to scrap the backstop, the irish backs up entirely. so the question for the eu side is, what sort of ask is borisjohnson going to come with, what sort of team is he going to surround himself with, what sort of majority can he promise backin what sort of majority can he promise back in london to get something through parliament because the crucial thing is the eu will look at here is what is mrjohnson asking for, is it something acceptable to be eu? if it's not, if it's a big change to the withdrawal agreement it sounds like there will be no agr

borisjohnson theresa may goes to the queen and then boris johnson moves theresa may goes to the queen moves in with his new bed. well, thank you so much. nicely teed up. do i get a house by a gold star? -- house point or a gold star? boris johnson a gold star? -- house point or a gold star? borisjohnson puts on a hefty bill for furniture at number ten. what a horrible headline. you think why is it here? i suppose we are supposed to be angry, i guess, all grossed out or whatever. but we will be paying for his new bed. his wife is keeping the marital bed. i guess his girlfriend doesn't want to bring whatever they use. it is horrible. he is going to be the first person in number 10 who is going to have a girlfriend, as opposed to... could you describe her asa opposed to... could you describe her as a mistress? he is still married. that is an old—fashioned term. as a mistress? he is still married. that is an old-fashioned term. that is an awful thing to say.|j sometimes call myself mr smith. a quite like it. well, if you call yourself —— mistress smith. according to the press association,

theresa may's former...f notice after the former prime minister resigned. of course, the chancellor, philip hammond going earlier in the data forjust hearing, northern ireland secretary karen bradley has resigned. that follows the earlier resignation, as i say, of rory stewart, international development secretary and philip hammond earlier in the day. i was just looking at some of the tweets they had any last hour. starting to look like the night of the long knives. nigel morris has just tweeted that he has already broken a modern political record. nine cabinet ministers have been sacked so far. it is a complete clear out. let us discuss a little bit of that. deputy political editor of the sunday times is with me. so much to say. let us start, martha, with what is going on across the road, at the moment. there is nothing for loyalty here, we have just seen that with james brokenshire. no, that is very order. he would have thought... it is going to bea he would have thought... it is going to be a very inner c

tomorrow theresa may will take part in her final prime ministers questions in the house of commons. o offer her resignation to the queen. she'll then be swiftly followed by her successor, who will ask her majesty for permission to form a government. after that, the new prime minster will take to the downing street lectern to deliver his first speech as pm, before announcing who will make up his new government. then on thursday, parliament breaks up for its summer recess. it will resume on september 3rd. our assistant political editor norman smith is outside the qe2 centre. of course, that underlines the fact that whoever becomes prime minister has not got a lot of time to sort out this brexit mess, as many people are obviously calling it, but before that deadline of october the 31st. not only is there only months to go until october the 31st, but mr johnson, if it is him, will have to move extraordinarily quickly to construct move extraordinarily quickly to co nstru ct a move extraordinarily quickly to construct a stable government, and the clue is in the word stable with news that a

the overwhelming favourite to succeed theresa may is borisjohnson. ke a short speech on the steps of downing street on wednesday afternoon after visiting the queen. our political correspondent nick eardley outlined how things may play out over the next couple of, very busy days. probably around midday, uk time, we will find out exactly what the result of the conservative leadership race has been. as you say, the firm favourite is borisjohnson. it is very hard to find anyone in westminster who does not think he's going to be the next man in downing street. after that announcement was made yesterday, there is this strange 24—hour period where theresa may stays as prime minister. she will do herfinal prime minister's question on wednesday and then the formal process of switching the government starts. she will go to the palace, tell the queen she is standing down and then boris johnson orjeremy hunt — if it's him — will go, have a quick chat with the queen, and come back to downing street and give us more of an idea about exactly what they want to do wit

this is one of his latest tweets about brexit and theresa may.said "i told theresa may had to do that deal, but she went her own foolish way and was unable to get it done. a disaster." he tweeted. had been some speculation that would fit right in with the sort of russian campaign just so discontent between allies, but there is reason to believe that perhaps this is an internal leak in the united kingdom. the journalists who report of the leak is a close ally of , the brexit backer in the united kingdom. that is important because president trump i suggest that for large -- had suggested nigel farage be ambassador to the united states, a request that was declined. countries do not particularly like the host country to tell them who are diplomats should be. that may be one of the reasons nigel farage is not the ambassador right now. it puts the two countries in a very sticky situation. i colleague put together a story with more on that. take a look. >> president trump, friends. alan: it was a high-profile dinner that put together business leaders as

up until now, theresa may has tried to maintain a balance. this is a brexiteer takeover of the british cabinet. that fits with this boris determination to deliver brexit. he says before october 31. shery: guy johnson, thank you so much. guy johnson there in london with the latest on brexit. and the new leadership in the u.k. let's continue this conversation. joining us is the founder and ceo of sg h macro advisors. great to have you with us. we see this new shape of the u.k. cabinet, now taking shape. will this change anything for the u.k. economy given that the brexit deadline, october 31, has not changed? >> i think these are great moves. i'm not speaking in a partisan way, i'm speaking looking at risk management, what has been happening in the u.k., the sclerosis we have had under theresa may who came with high hopes for her leadership. what guy was talking about as far as oris johnson -- boris johnson's energy, he is also taking control. it is not just random energy. this is a problem theresa may had with her own party, her own parliament

there is theresa may getting into the car to go to the houses of common. may. there is terrific news flow, particularly grim economic data out of new york -- out of europe. viviana: we begin in washington. the former special counsel and the trump investigation will face questions from congress. testifyueller will before a house committee and democrats hope he will offer more details about trump and possible obstruction of justice. u.s. trade officials heading to china next week for the first face-to-face talks since may. an official says the meetings are not expected to lead to major breakthroughs. president trump and president xi declared a tentative truce. the trading slump deutsche bank got worse leading up to the massive overhaul. revenue fell 12%. the equities trading business fell by almost one third. deutsche's blinked -- booked more restructuring charges, leading to a bigger loss than originally indicated. global news 24 hours a day, on air and @tictoc on twitter, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. hurtado

and so much of what theresa may hope for is unresolved.failed, but a prime minister who ultimately failed, buta prime prime minister who ultimately failed, but a prime minister who tried. laura kuenssberg, bbc news. the two men hoping to succeed theresa may as tory leader and prime minister, borisjohnson and jeremy hunt, have been cross—examined in interviews by andrew neil, for a special bbc one programme tonight. here's our deputy political editor, john pienaar. they came expecting to be tested and they were. jeremy hunt first. he's saying brexit may take a little bit longer than october the 31st to deliver, but how long? days? months? maybe longer, it turned out, than he'd like. is it on or around the 31st, it has to be before christmas. i would expect 50, yes. expect so? but you cannot say for sure, is there any chance we could still go into 2020 and still be a member of the eu? i don't believe so, no. but you won't rule it out? i don't believe that will be the case, because... well, this is why people don't really trust you on this. w

he's made it clear he does not want to be set by the same sort of internal wrangling and division theresa may'ske the uk out with no deal, parliament may wa nt to out with no deal, parliament may want to have a say. it's not immediately clear how they could stop that, but why did the things that's that the reshuffle has done is create quite of those people does a voluntary decided to leave the cabin and go to the back benches, to oppose at no deal, people i fell hammond, greg clark who waited to be sacked, some of those people are very opposed to no deal, he also has labour is sort of manoeuvring around, but remember that one thing that has not changed today for the prime minister is the parliamentary arithmetic. so he still has a wafer thin majority with support of dup, asa by thin majority with support of dup, as a by election next week which could take that down, so he's in a very precarious parliamentary position. he may say i had a cabinet prepared to go with a no deal, but still unclear whether parliament will try to frustrate that and whether they succeed in doing so and that's what he w

there is a mirror image, it seems to me, with the fate of theresa may.rom the hardline brexit supporters. it seems borisjohnson faces hardline brexit supporters. it seems boris johnson faces entrenched opposition from his hardline remain supporters. the difference is that theresa may had at least a few months, a honeymoon period, where she didn't face that backbench fury. mrjohnson, if he wins tomorrow, is not even in downing street but already his back bench remain opponents are preparing to take him on. norman, many thanks. police in hong kong have been severely criticised for failing to protect pro—democracy activists who were attacked by gangs of masked men at a train station. the group, wielding sticks and rods, beat up protesters as they returned from a rally. hong kong has had weeks of protests against a proposed extradition bill that could see people sent to mainland china for trial. hong kong's leader condemned the violence. celia hatton report contains images you may find disturbing. this is the violence that has shocked the people of once peac
