i think theresa may is wrong.ng addition to the national statute was one of giving this binding target of net zero by 2050, which i think is utterly ruinous and not in the centre ground. actually, i'd consider it to be quite an extreme policy , which is going extreme policy, which is going to immiserate the working class that isn't my idea of being in the centre ground . she's also the centre ground. she's also someone who's considered to have been quite to the right when it came to home affairs. i don't know what idea that is actually of her being to the right, given that well, under her we actually started to see the seeds of a new migration policy formed, one which has brought more people here than ever before. i think fundamentally, the conservative party lost the last election because it didn't stand up for the values that reform have since championed, that the conservative party used to stand for in 2019. you can't say that was a centrist government, not with dominic cummings at the helm. i remember when the

theresa may has brought in new laws, of course.orjoining us. we will have more from the middle east and the situation with so many different strands to talk about. we are expecting a news conference with some of the uk families with hostages still being held. that is coming up. hello. it's another wet day with low pressure firmly in charge, bringing some quite windy weather conditions as well for some of us. we've still got some problems with flooding as well, and no wonder why — this month has been extraordinary in terms of rainfall. south newington, we've had over four times the average rainfall and not far off double the previous september rainfall record. it has been exceptionally wet and we still have a number of flood warnings in force. a couple of clusters, really, one down towards the south—west and another cluster of warnings in the midlands. the one bit of good news i have for you today is although there is more rain in the forecast, the heaviest rain isn't going to be affecting these areas and so we should start to see m

theresa may told the commons a week after the blaze she wanted quick answers, we needed to learn theilty party she said should have nowhere to hide yet here we are seven years on and we are still not quite sure how to answer the how question. we will get answers today. i think there will be detailed in this report. what is missing i think is that justice report. what is missing i think is thatjustice part. in the days after grenfell tower, i remember a lot of people were still unaccounted for. their photographs were posted on lamp posts in the area as you wandered around the shadow of grenfell tower at that time. these faces were staring out from all over the place. they were accusing, saying we want answers and justice and justice for grenfell became the rallying cry. while this inquiry is not a court of law, i think there had been a hopeless moment, the final inquiry publication would be a point at which we could start prosecuting those people because the police know there are 58 individuals, 90 organisations —— 19 organisations —— 19 organisations that could face criminal sanction

it is interesting that during the years of theresa may's rule.starmer himself spoke out against such measures, and it is worth noting that the british government has money for kiev, it is sending 700 million pounds there, and ironically, these funds will be used to prepare the country's energy system for winter. in addition, due to the costs of supporting ukraine, london does not have enough money to prepare its own military. colossal problems remain in healthcare, no doctors, millions of uk citizens waiting months for an appointment. you know how i feel, i feel helpless, i can't do anything, all attempts lead nowhere, millions of elderly people will face fuel shortages. sunok managed to hold on to his seat for almost 2 years, and the current head of government took office only in early july. donald trump refused to hold a second debate with kamala haris. according to the republican, he has already won, and the democrats insist on continuing in order to rehabilitate themselves after another failure. at the same time, most opinion polls show the o

yeah. >> and i used to get comparisons because my haircut with theresa may as well.greement, but at least theresa may dressed really well. >> she's she's got great taste. i mean, that i think she's got oh come on. right. no, i'm going to go on. >> was that a bad. >> was that a bad. >> are you saying that i don't dress well? >> well, i mean that was a i don't think that was a deliberate insinuation. >> maybe on some level. you asked me on angela rayner. >> now she dragged up a favourite topic of discussion at the labour conference today. let's have a look. oh you may have heard me mention that it was a trade unionist. >> and if you don't know that, i should probably tell you that keir's dad was a toolmaker. >> well, at least he laughed about it. he's going along with it. but you know, he's made a lot of hay out of his father being a toolmaker, he has, and his dad definitely is toolmaker. >> look at him. that is one of them. >> oh very good. that's just me. >> oh very good. that's just me. >> how long did that take you to? >> nothing. >> nothing. >> it didn't take anyt

there was a sense then of political momentum, something is going to happen, we can't wait for ages, theresa may did wait for ages and we are still waiting. we still have unsafe homes and we still have the police saying, we have to continue our inquiries before we can even move to a point of charging into years. possibly looking at some sort of court cases ten years after the fire. there is a sense of renewed momentum. they will also be a lot of focus on what needs to happen in terms of regulation. we have already had the building safety act, the fire safety act that followed the hackett report in the years after the fire, there is clearly a sense that more needs to be done, given the findings of the report and what was going wrong in terms of the people responsible for the cladding and other parts of the building's safety. there is a difficulty for labour here, on the one hand they will want to do anything that they feel is right to ensure the safety of all buildings, but at the same time, they don't want to restrict the growth in housing. they are talking about 1.5 million new homes this parli

the public inquiry idea came from theresa may, that trauma on them while also campaigning and going abouty lives, they are campaigning for the justice that they desperately need for their loved ones. it's exhaustive and it put a huge strain on people. we have thought about this a lot at bbc london, notjust myself of the team on radio and on all our platforms and television, but the mental health strain as well on people is huge. ptsd is very common still seven years on. there are some campaigners that have sadly died waiting forjustice, so the strain on people here is huge. yes, it was an important day yesterday, it's a milestone, but there are still obviously a long way to go. find milestone, but there are still obviously a long way to go. and what we have been — obviously a long way to go. and what we have been reminded _ obviously a long way to go. and what we have been reminded of— obviously a long way to go. and what we have been reminded of the last i we have been reminded of the last couple of days is the community's strength, the resilience, the banded together to support one anoth

this is the same theresa may who recently declared that she's proudly woke. to wake up. the first step is to elect a leader who is a true conservative, who will police the borders, reduce legal immigration, and get legal immigration to a level that serves the economy but doesn't destroy society. a leader who accelerates rishi sunak's sensible move away from the worst excesses of net zero. a leader who gets taxes down, supports businesses and grows the economy. and the new leader is going to have to build a relationship and form a soft political coalition with nigel farage and reform uk, because the tories are now like an ailing business that will only survive with a merger. why? well, because the maths just don't add up with reforms. 4.1 million votes at the last election , which i promise you election, which i promise you will grow. the conservatives have no hope of forming an overall majority without reform support. a sobering thought as the tories fill the bars and nightclubs of birmingham this evening . i've got no doubt that evening. i've got no doubt th

theresa may made a statement to parliament and talked about lessons be learned.of thatjudgment. there is that agony, that sense that this hasn't yet to produce the result that people have wanted. mark, you will be with me throughout the day thank you for the moment. we know that there will be so much reaction to this report due to be publishing a minute's time. haste publishing a minute's time. we will hear from sir keir starmer will hearfrom sir keir starmer ads pm cues. it will be interesting to see what he has to say. in response to this report. this phase two report from the public inquiry into grenfell tower. we are waiting for answers. the bereaved, the survivors and the wider granville community. a damning report into the ground floor tower is published. there were serious failings in london fire brigade's training and its strategy to evacuate the building. the 1,700 page report comes seven years after the fire took the lives of 72 people. we will bring you the reaction of the families. we are outside the inquiry

and it might be in taking a decision like this, which was too tough a theresa may, she tried to do thisand other painful decisions will be a little easier in comparison. so, a modest rebellion, modest amount of money spent, but could still be a defining moment for the prime minister and chancellor. in minister and chancellor. in terms of definina minister and chancellor. in terms of defining moment, _ minister and chancellor. in terms of defining moment, chris, the - defining moment, chris, the covenant was always going to win this vote, but nonetheless 50 labour mps did not turn up for it, what are you reading into that?— not turn up for it, what are you reading into that? firstly we should underline that _ reading into that? firstly we should underline that first _ reading into that? firstly we should underline that first point, _ reading into that? firstly we should underline that first point, we - reading into that? firstly we should underline that first point, we have l underline that first point, we have .ot underline that first point, we have got to— underline that first point, w

it's important to remember that the prime - remember that the prime minister at the time theresa mayed in this blog lived a fundamentally different lives, they don't feel they're connected to the state and therefore mistrustful of it, to set the legacy of this awful tragedy was that people were not to be forgotten. so right from the beginning that there was a sense of what needed to happen was that communities that didn't perhaps feel connected to power or that democracy work for them, that their voice wasn't being heard would somehow be included in the national conversation in a way that it hadn't been. and i was a poll done during the election that showed the trust and confidence in our election but by our politics has never been lower so thatjob still has to be completed. been lower so that job still has to be completed.- has to be completed. how important _ has to be completed. how important that _ has to be completed. how important that is - has to be completed. how important that is that - has to be completed. how important that is that among the many otherjobs that labour says

you announcing the result of the vote of confidence in theresa may.e. >> that's. could you tell me i'm a part of history? that's a bit sad, but no, i've had it's been exciting . and, you know, i can't exciting. and, you know, i can't complain. it was strange. my career took a fork in the road because in two thousand and seven, i resigned because the conservative party started being mean about grammar schools. and i was very strongly supportive of grammar schools. so i resigned so i could make the case for grammar schools and selective education in particular, standing up for the onesin particular, standing up for the ones in my own constituency at the time. and at that point, i thought my career was was over and somebody colleague suggested to me, why don't you stand to be chairman of the 1922 committee in 2010? and it's not something i'd ever planned, ever thought i would do. and when i started doing, when i was first elected, i thought it might be for a year or two. 14 years later, after the most tumultuous period in british political history, i can

pensioners in terms of their their worrisome situation about they labour party briefed against theresa may'sut, which never happened, saying 4000 deaths could be precipitated by that. and yet, here we go. now, what are you heanng here we go. now, what are you hearing from pensioners in terms of their their worrisome situation about they could be facing a much colder and a much poorer winter ahead. >> well, you earlier on you used the phrase the labour party have chosen as hill to die on, and it does seem a very curious hill for them to choose to die on. it's not going to save the government more than £1 billion or so, which is a rounding error in terms of the overall national account. you know, they're giving far, far more than that, ten times more than that away in in overseas climate aid, you talked about the settlement of pubuc talked about the settlement of public sector workers. so this is a choice. the government is making. and what does it mean for pensioners? well, for those pensioners just above the pension credit and credit entitlement income level, they're going to lose up to £300
