The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn hits back at his critics. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
He dismisses claims of anti-Semitism within Labour's ranks. | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
We stand absolutely against anti-Semitism in any form. | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
We stand absolutely against racism in any form. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
We'll be asking where this week of controversy | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
Also on the programme, should the Government | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
Ministers dismiss newspaper reports as not strictly accurate. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
We take a rare look inside North Korea as it prepares | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
to celebrate its leader - in the first Party Congress | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
And Leicester City are held to a draw by Manchester United | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
and will have to wait a little longer to be crowned | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
At a May Day rally in London, the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has | :00:54. | :01:15. | |
insisted his party is "united" in opposing anti-Semitism | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
following the suspension of his close ally Ken Livingstone | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
and the MP Naz Shah earlier in the week. | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
Supporters have rallied to Mr Corbyn's defence | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
over his handling of the row, with union leader Len McCluskey | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
saying it had been whipped up by the right of the Labour Party | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
Here's our Political Correspondent Carole Walker. | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
A barrage of further questions for Jeremy Corbyn. | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
Criticism of his handling of this row shows no sign of relenting, | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
despite his pledge to tackle the problem with an inquiry | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
We stand absolutely against anti-Semitism in any form. | :01:53. | :02:05. | |
We stand absolutely against racism in any form. | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
We stand united as a labour movement. | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
At today's rally, he was surrounded by friends and supporters. | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
People are choosing to be offended in order to dislodge Jeremy Corbyn. | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
It seems to me that the right of the Labour Party | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
I don't think it should affect Jeremy Corbyn. | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
I don't think it will affect Jeremy Corbyn, and I would be | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
delighted to say I will be supporting Jeremy Corbyn. | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
Jeremy Corbyn has insisted he has always opposed racism in all forms | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
but this row has now led to new questions about his | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
leadership, just days from elections, which will be seen | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
which will be seen as a critical test. | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
Labour's candidate for London mayor, Sadiq Khan, told a Sunday newspaper | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
And a former Labour minister said the whole crisis | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
If action had been taken earlier, we could have nipped | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
this problem in the bud, but it hasn't been gripped. | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
I hope it is now finally been gripped after the Livingstone fiasco | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
this week, but it will be judged on what we do. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
But the Unite union leader Len McCluskey accused some Labour | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
MPs of aiding and abetting the Tories and right-wing press | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
This is nothing more than a cynical attempt to manipulate | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
anti-Semitism for political aims, because this is all about | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
constantly challenging Jeremy Corbyn's leadership. | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
You don't need any more pictures of me. | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
Ken Livingstone has refused to back down from his claim | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
that Hitler supported Zionism before the Holocaust, | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
despite being suspended from his party. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
Israel's new ambassador said some within the Labour Party | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
it's about demonising the Jewish state. | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
The comments we've heard over the last two or three weeks | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
that were made public, it's got nothing to do | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
with criticising this or that particular Israeli policy. | :04:07. | :04:08. | |
The pressure on Jeremy Corbyn is far from over, with Labour braced | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
for significant losses at this week's elections. | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
Are you going to go to Israel, Mr Corbyn? | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
How much substance is there in the idea that this row has been | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
Undoubtably, there are some Labour MPs who were never happy about | :04:21. | :04:31. | |
Jeremy Corbyn's leadership of the party, and there are some who | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
believe he was reluctant to tackle this issue because of his | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
long-standing support for the Palestinian cause. But this now goes | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
much wider than that. You heard the Israeli ambassador that. This is a | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
serious issue for the Labour Party, and if the leadership do try to | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
sweep it aside and blame it on some right-wing faction in the party, | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
that will just make matters worse for Jeremy | :04:54. | :05:14. | |
Corbyn. The trouble for the leadership now is that this row is | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
drowning out any other messages they would like to be focusing on ahead | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
of those important elections in Scotland, Wales, London and local | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
councils across the country. Many Labour MPs are deeply pessimistic | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
about their prospects. If their worst fears are realised, if Labour | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
does suffer significant losses, it will be very difficult for the | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
leadership to continue to argue that it is simply a bunch of disgruntled | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
Blairites who are the cause of all Jeremy Corbyn's problems. Carole, | :05:32. | :05:32. | |
thank you. Ministers have dismissed newspaper | :05:33. | :05:33. | |
reports that the Culture Secretary John Whittingdale wants to stop | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
the BBC scheduling its top-rated programmes, | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
including Strictly Come Dancing, at the same time as popular | :05:38. | :05:38. | |
shows on rival networks. Our Media Correspondent David | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
Sillito has more. It is TV's big night, Saturday | :05:42. | :05:52. | |
evening, the traditional prime-time entertainment battle ground. | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
Exterminate! Doctor Who, Strictly Come Dancing, X Factor. But why does | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
the end of Strictly often overlap with the beginning of X Factor? Why | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
couldn't the big shows be separated? Also, why are the BBC's big dramas | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
often scheduled directly against ITV's. It appears the Government has | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
had enough of this. The headlines today proclaim that the BBC was | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
about to be told this has to stop. So what can anyone do about these | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
clashes? Well, the Government has been concerned about the BBC's | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
impact on its commercial rivals for some time now, and it's understood | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
that they are looking at the possibility that whoever ends up | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
regulating the BBC will have some power to either adjudicates or | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
intervene on the topic. The BBC says it is deeply concerned. Labour said | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
it was meddling. But in a statement, the department of culture says the | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
Government is not going to be interfering in the schedules. But | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
this doesn't mean it's not concerned about the corporation's impact on | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
its competitors. In terms of scheduling and Saturday nights, | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
there will be nothing about that. There will probably be something | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
about the BBC minding its Ps and Qs, being a bit more careful than it | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
sometimes has been about its impact on commercial competitors. Questions | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
have also been raised about both ITV and the BBC broadcasting their main | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
evening bulletins at the same time at ten o'clock. But do clashes over | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
the news or Strictly matter as much as they once did? Do you care when | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
they overlap? I do, actually. It is frustrating. Obviously, prime-time | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
viewing is competitive for everybody. If they clash in the | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
schedules, does that bother you? Know, because I can do it on catch | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
up. And there is also the government's own recent report on | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
the topic, which said the impact on ITV from clashes in entertainment | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
and drummer was at most 1% of its audience. David Sillito, BBC News. | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
A man's been arrested on suspicion of murder after the body | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
of a teenage girl was pulled from the sea at Broadstairs in Kent. | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
Officers were first called to the port in Ramsgate due | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
to concerns for a person in the water. | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
Our correspondent Simon Jones joins us from there. | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
The police were first alerted at around five o'clock this morning. | :08:08. | :08:19. | |
They told the coastguard, who launched a huge search. That | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
involved a coastguard helicopter, two lifeboats and teams going along | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
the shore. At around 7:45am along the coast in Broadstairs, the | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
lifeboat fished out of the water the body of this teenage girl. They | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
haven't revealed how old she was exactly and she hasn't been named | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
this evening, but we don't know that there has been an arrest and police | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
have launched a murder investigation. Officers say the key | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
thing now is to establish the circumstances behind this event. In | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
21-year-old man from Ramsgate has been arrested on suspicion of | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
murder, and he remains in police custody this evening. People on the | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
pier today were trying to enjoy the bank holiday and have been speaking | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
of their shock and upset at what happened. Simon, thank you. | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
A look at some of the day's other stories now, and two people have | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
died in a house fire in Spalding in Lincolnshire. | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
It started in the early hours of this morning. | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
The cause of the blaze and the identities of | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
The Scottish victim of the fatal helicopter crash in Norway has been | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
named as Iain Stuart, from Laurencekirk in Aberdeenshire. | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
The 41-year-old oil worker was one of 13 passengers and crew on board | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
the Super Puma when it crashed on Friday. | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
His family say they are heartbroken by his death. | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
There's been an explosion outside a police station | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
in south-eastern Turkey, close to the Syrian border. | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
At least two policemen have been killed, and more | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
There have been several attacks in Turkey in the last year, linked | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
to both Kurdish militants and so-called Islamic State. | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
The US Secretary of State John Kerry is due to arrive in Geneva to revive | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
The United States has said the top priority is to stop the bloodshed | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
in Syria's largest city Aleppo, where hundreds of people have | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
The White House Correspondents' dinner is an annual star-studded | :10:04. | :10:12. | |
his last before vacating the Oval Office - | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
his Republican opponents and his critics. | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
He even cracked a joke about Prince George. | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
Our Washington Correspondent Laura Bicker's report | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
This is when Hollywood and political players get to rub shoulders. | :10:26. | :10:36. | |
The entertainer-in-chief, Barack Obama, | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
But this is the last of his presidency, and he couldn't help | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
hinting that it might be Hillary Clinton. | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
Next year, this time, someone else will be standing | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
here in this very spot, and it's anyone's guess | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
As for the Republican frontrunner, Donald Trump wasn't there, | :10:57. | :11:03. | |
They say Donald lacks the foreign policy experience to be president. | :11:04. | :11:13. | |
But in fairness, he has spent years meeting with leaders | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
But his material wasn't all focused on others. | :11:16. | :11:24. | |
He noted that the presidency has taken its toll. | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
The only way you can date her in photos is by looking at me. | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
His recent trip to the UK also got a mention. | :11:33. | :11:47. | |
Last week, Prince George showed up to our meeting in his bathrobe. | :11:48. | :11:58. | |
That was a slap in the face. | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
As his time in office wanes, Mr Obama told the audience he dreams | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
Whatever he does after leaving the White House, the President's | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
comedy will be missed by many in the White House press corps. | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
And with that, I just have two more words to say. | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
Laura Bicker, BBC News, Washington. | :12:26. | :12:39. | |
Later this week, the ruling party in North Korea will hold its first | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
It will be the moment Kim Jong-Un will be officially proclaimed | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
as the country's Supreme Leader, replacing his father, | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
North Korea is a secretive state which journalists are | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
rarely given access to, but our correspondent | :12:57. | :12:58. | |
Rupert Wingfield-Hayes travelled there as part | :12:59. | :12:59. | |
of a humanitarian trip, and he sent this report | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
May Day fun in the workers' paradise. | :13:02. | :13:12. | |
These are not the scenes I expected to find | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
There was nothing like this last time I came here. | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
A lot of these kids can speak English. | :13:23. | :13:35. | |
I have taken this several times, but it is time. | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
I am studying at Kim Il-sung University. | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
Pampered and privileged, but even they live an incredibly | :13:44. | :13:57. | |
Do you meet foreigners much, do you get any | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
It's your first chance to meet a foreigner? | :14:03. | :14:14. | |
While the elite plays, the masses are preparing | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
for the biggest political show here in decades. | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
From atop a high monument, we glimpse thousands of | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
dancers rehearsing for the opening of the Workers' Party Congress. | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
Its job - to glorify the rule of Kim Jong-un. | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
There is no escaping the Kim dynasty, even | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
with tales of how Marshal Kim personally | :14:37. | :14:44. | |
But the children we are shown look remarkably well | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
and there is not a real doctor in sight. | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
Even our VIP, Prince Alfred of Liechtenstein, | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
So this is the challenge of trying to understand anything at | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
We are brought to a place like this, | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
it looks very modern, it is clean, | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
there is modern equipment, but we are | :15:11. | :15:11. | |
not allowed to talk to ordinary people. | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
If I turn to try to ask these people, they run away. | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
Everything we see looks like a set up. | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
It is easier to understand the national sport, tae kwon do. | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
This is how North Korea sees itself - tough, | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
But how does it feel about its enemy? | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
How do you feel about us, the outside world, | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
Who can blame her for losing her tongue, | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
For all its tough behaviour, this is a country | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
Rupert Wingfield-Hayes, BBC News, in Pyongyang. | :15:46. | :15:53. | |
Now, with all the sport, here's Olly Foster at | :15:54. | :15:55. | |
Leicester City had their first chance to win the Premier League | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
today, but a 1-1 draw at Manchester United still leaves | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
them needing two points from their last two matches. | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
The title could be theirs tomorrow if nearest rivals Tottenham | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
Our Sports Correspondent Andy Swiss was at Old Trafford. | :16:11. | :16:22. | |
It would have once sounded utterly unthinkable, but Leicester fans | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
flocked to Old Trafford knowing that the impossible dream lay in | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
tantalising reach. There are no words to describe it, it's just | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
amazing. I have not slept all night and I just can't cope any longer. It | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
has got to be done. What better way for the movie to end, winning this | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
Premier League at the theatre of dreams? But could the players now | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
make them reality? There would have to beat a Manchester United team | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
battling for Champions League qualification, and Anthony Martial | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
swept the hosts ahead. Now for a test of Leicester's character. At | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
first, they seemed swamped. Only Kasper Schmeichel denied United a | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
second. But suddenly, the jitters turned to joy. Leicester captain Wes | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
Morgan with a priceless equaliser, and the fans inside Old Trafford | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
were not the only ones delighted. Hundreds celebrated at the club's | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
stadium back in Leicester, as did plenty more in Bangkok, home of the | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
team's Thai owners. This is very much a global ferry tale. After the | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
break, Leicester new one more go would complete it, but for once, it | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
didn't go according to the script. Annie Drinkwater was sent off and | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
they had to settle for a point. No title yet, then, but they are edging | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
ever closer. I am always satisfied when I see my players play as well | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
as today. The result is a consequence. They show their | :17:50. | :17:56. | |
character, their heart, that's all, and after you can accept the result. | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
Almost, then, but not quite. Leicester will win the title if | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
Tottenham face to -- if Tottenham fail to beat Chelsea tomorrow, but | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
for one day at least, the celebrations are on hold. | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
There were two other matches in the Premier League today, | :18:13. | :18:14. | |
Manchester City could have returned to third in the table but slipped up | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
Sadio Mane scoring a hat-trick for Saints. | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
City are four points clear of Manchester United in fifth. | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
Andre Ayew scored twice, but Jack Cork scored the best | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
of Swansea's goals as they beat Liverpool 3-1 | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
The win means that they can't be relegated. | :18:30. | :18:41. | |
Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton climbed | :18:42. | :18:43. | |
at the Russian Grand Prix before more engine trouble with his | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
Mercedes scuppered his chances of a first win this season. | :18:48. | :18:49. | |
His teammate Nico Rosberg took the chequered flag again and he now | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
leads the drivers' championship by 43 points. | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
