A top Labour figure says the party must change, | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
With pressure once again on Jeremy Corbyn after Thursday's | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
by-election defeat in Copeland, his deputy says the party | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
This is not the time for a leadership election. | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
We can not sustain this level of distance from our electorate. | :00:22. | :00:31. | |
Inside Iraq, the casualties in the battle to take control | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
of Mosul from so-called Islamic State. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
The search for traces of a deadly nerve agent at Kuala Lumpur airport | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
used in the suspected North Korean assassination. | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
And, Scotland beat Wales for the first time in a decade | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
Tom Watson, Labour's deputy leader, has said the party must change tack | :00:53. | :01:23. | |
and "do better" at winning over voters but he has said | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
that now is not the time to change leadership. | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
Speaking at the Scottish Labour conference in Perth, | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
Mr Watson acknowledged the loss of a long-held Labour seat | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
in Copeland on Thursday had been hugely disappointing. | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Labour's leader, Jeremy Corbyn, has said he will stay on. | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
Here's our political correspondent Carole Walker. | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
Jeremy Corbyn has made it clear he has no intention of stepping down. | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
He was in Stoke yesterday where Labour saw off the challenge | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
But he's facing questions about the party's defeat in Copeland. | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
The Tories were jubilant after seizing the seat which had | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
been in Labour's hands since it was created. | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
Labour's deputy leader told his party's Scottish conference | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
he was hugely disappointed at the result. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
Our job at the next general election is to gain over 100 seats, | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
keeping what we have is supposed to be the easy bit. | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
This is not the time for a leadership election. | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
We can not sustain this level of distance from our electorate, | :02:30. | :02:38. | |
from our natural supporters, so things do have to change. | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
Even Mr Corbyn's most outspoken critics at Westminster are not | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
contemplating a leadership challenge, they fear he would be | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
re-elected and returned in a stronger position. | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
But many of his MPs are deeply concerned that under his leadership | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
there's little prospect of the party regaining support amongst | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
David Miliband, the former Foreign Secretary, who now runs | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
a charity based in New York, said he feared Labour is losing | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
He said, "I am obviously deeply concerned that Labour is further | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
from power than at any stage in my lifetime". | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
His supporters say Jeremy Corbyn is not the problem. | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
It's about us reconnecting with our grass roots. | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
It's about us getting the working class vote back and, of course, | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
by defeating Ukip in Stoke we successfully have done that | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
because we were told we couldn't do that. | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
So, let's share our successes, let's work and build upon it | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
and let's get back into Government where we should be. | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
But in Scotland, where Labour is struggling to recover, | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
party members are concerned at the scale of the problems. | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
Can't help but think that the leadership at UK level | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
I think Jeremy Corbyn is our leader, he has the absolute support | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
of the entire Labour Party because we've got to get | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
on with it, we can't keep talking amongst ourselves. | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
Jeremy Corbyn has said he is proud to continue as leader and he's not | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
given any indication that he will be changing his approach in order | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
Iraqi forces have entered parts of western Mosul in what is expected | :04:04. | :04:18. | |
to be an arduous and dangerous battle to remove so-called | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
Islamic State from Iraq's second largest city. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
Wyre Davies has sent this report from an advanced Iraqi military base | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
where American troops and advisers are proving a key part | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
This woman is a victim of Islamic State's latest tactic | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
in its desperate bid to avoid defeat in Mosul. | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
The 55-year-old mother of seven from the eastern part of the city | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
"I was lying on the ground and people were pointing to the sky | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
from where the bomb came", she told me. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
One of dozens of drone attack victims they've | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
This is pretty new for this conflict but also for conflicts | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
These mortars can be very effective and the impact on the population | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
This IS video eulogises the use of commercially available drones | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
An organisation which governs according to brutal feudal codes, | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
adapting modern technology to lethal effect. | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
Drones are yet another threat for government troops now pursuing | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
fighters from so-called Islamic State into the narrow | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
After days of fierce clashes on the edge of the city. | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
But from a field just to the south, big American guns are helping | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
to sway the battle perhaps decisively in the | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
This is an overwhelmingly Iraqi military operation but the role | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
of American advisers and troops, so-called boots on the ground, | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
US artillery pieces pounding targets in Mosul. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
American commanders are reluctant to divulge too many sensitive | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
details, but say US military support will be decisive. | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
The fight in Western Mosul would be a tough fight for really | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
So the Iraqi army, the Iraqi federal police again | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
It will be a lot of house-to-house fighting. | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
They don't have any choice but to fight. | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
A Kurdish reporter, Shifa Gardi was killed today covering | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
A handful of refugees fled in the opposite direction | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
but there are an estimated 750,000 civilians still trapped | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
Wyre Davies, BBC News, northern Iraq. | :06:40. | :06:49. | |
Media organisations have reacted angrily after several, | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
including the BBC, were barred from a press briefing | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
The New York Times said the move was an insult to democratic | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
In the last few minutes, there's been another development. | :07:01. | :07:09. | |
Straight now to Washington and our correspondent | :07:10. | :07:10. | |
A tweet from the President. President Trump has stepped up | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
attacks in the media in recent weeks. He has called certain | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
elements fake news and has described those elements as an enemy of the | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
American people. Within the last few minutes the President has tweeted | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
that he will not be attending the White House correspondents' annual | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
dinner. Now this tweet is highly unusual because certainly this is a | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
dinner, it's an annual glitter event with stars and press, and the | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
President sit down together and put that animosity aside. The President | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
has decided that's not for him. When it comes to the White House press | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
association, they were already asking the White House about a press | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
briefing yesterday where certain selected members of the media were | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
allowed into a briefing by Sean Spicer, the press Secretary and | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
others were not and they included CNN, the New York Times and the BBC. | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
We have yet to hear from the White House why they were not allowed into | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
that briefing and whether or not this will continue. But this latest | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
tweet saying he will not attend the dinner shows that at that animosity | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
that he feels for the press is not going away. | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
Thank you. Malaysian security services have | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
swept Kuala Lumpur airport for toxic chemicals after the half-brother | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
of North Korea's leader Kim Jong-nam was killed | :08:36. | :08:37. | |
using one of the world's Authorities have confirmed | :08:38. | :08:40. | |

with travellers. At the scene of the crime, the security services came | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
kited out against chemical weapons. They were looking for traces of | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
deadly toxins, including the nefb agent VX, an internationally banned | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
weapon. The Malaysian authorities announced yesterday that it was VX | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
that killed Kim Jong-nam and they've been under pressure to reassure the | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
public that Kuala Lumpur's second international airport was safe. We | :09:24. | :09:32. | |
confirm, number one, there is no hazardous material found. Number | :09:33. | :09:40. | |
two, it is free from any form of contamination of hazardous material. | :09:41. | :09:48. | |

North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. Indonesian diplomats said she had | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
been paid just over ?70 to take part in what she thought was a reality | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
show prank. She apparently told them she had no idea what she was | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
handling. TRANSLATION: She only said she was | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
given a kind of oil like baby oil. This is the other suspected killer. | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
And here she is competing in in a talent contest. The Vietnamese | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
Government said she too thought she was taking part in a prank. In the | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
real world the Malaysian authorities are still investigating Kim | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
Jong-nam's extraordinary murder. A North Korean diplomat wanted for | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
questioning has yet to come forward. Caroline hauy, BBC News. | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
Leicester City's former manager, Claudio Ranieri, has paid his last | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
He was sacked on Thursday - just nine months after | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
the team unexpectedly won the Premier League title. | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
Leicester has been struggling this season and risks relegation. | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
Ranieri told reporters he wanted to say goodbye | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
I don't speak with anybody, just to say thank you to the fans, | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
Because what we achieved in Leicester I hope could happen again, | :11:07. | :11:16. | |
Was it emotional with the players in there? | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
Do you feel stabbed in the back, Claudio, do you feel badly treated? | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
In the Six Nations rugby, Scotland have beaten Wales | :11:31. | :11:36. | |
A spirited second half saw them run out 29-13 | :11:37. | :11:45. | |
winners at Murrayfield to keep their championship | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
And, Ireland beat France to maintain their challenge, | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
You can lose yourself in Edinburgh, in the city of alleys it takes | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
Blown off course last time, Scotland in Paris. | :11:56. | :12:02. | |
One further false move for either and their | :12:03. | :12:10. | |
For 20 minutes, so little ground given. | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
Until Wales set off on the open road. | :12:18. | :12:18. | |
Too quick to be stopped by any of Scotland's barriers. | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
So they tried to catch them another way. | :12:25. | :12:26. | |
But Leigh Halfpenny can kick to the horizon. | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
In a city of train-spotting, try-spotting. | :12:33. | :12:43. | |
They moved six points clear, then Wales responded. | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
This time Rhys Webb asked the question but before he reached | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
Under the pump Scotland have cracked in the past. | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
A first Scottish victory over Wales in ten years. | :13:01. | :13:09. | |
So 29-13 and all of this shows Scotland's rugby resurgence | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
and proves they are very real contenders for this year's title. | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
Which of Ireland and France could join them? | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
That was always predicted to be tight. | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
A game for spotting the tiniest of spaces. | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
Back in the team to do this, a lovely drop. | :13:28. | :13:36. | |
Now to gather that energy, for Ireland, as for Scotland, | :13:37. | :13:41. | |

. Good evening. Hot on the heels of storm Doris comes yet another named | :13:50. | :14:13. | |
storm. It's a storm Ewan, it's heading our way, not as powerful as | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
Doris was, but still a spell of wind and rain across | :14:18. | :14:19. |
