Theresa May will become the UK Prime Minister on Wednesday,

with the difficult task of negotiating Britain's exit

Brexit means Brexit and we're going to make a success of it.

David Cameron announces Britain will have a new Prime

Minister by Wednesday - Theresa May will take

power after her Tory leadership rival drops out.

Fresh fighting has broken out in South Sudan.

More than 200 people are reported to have died since Friday.

So, weeks sooner than anyone had imagined, Britain

will have a new Prime Minister and we know now who that will be.

Home Secretary Theresa May will be moving into Number 10 Downing Street

This is after her rival, Andrea Leadsom, made a shock

announcement pulling out of the race to lead the ruling

Here's what Britain's next Prime Minister had

During this campaign, my case has been based

First, the need for strong and proven leadership,

to steer us through what will be difficult and uncertain

The need to negotiate the best deal for Britain in leaving the EU

and forge a new role for ourselves in the world.

And, we are going to make a success of it.

Second, we need to unite our country.

And third, we need a strong, new and positive vision

A vision of a country that works not for the privileged few,

Because we are going to give people more control over their lives.

And that is how together we will build a better Britain.

Opposition parties have been slower to accept Theresa May

as the country's next Prime Minister - several are calling

for an early General Election now that she's unopposed.

Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron said this in a statement.

"May has not set out an agenda and has no right to govern.

She has not won an election and the public must have their say."

Let's talk to Vicky Young in Westminster.

Another extraordinary day where the pace of events

I am just thinking back to three weeks ago before the referendum when

David Cameron might well have thought in a close contest he had a

good chance of winning and hey -- he had two or three years ahead of him

as Prime Minister, but lie in the most dramatic fashion is he will be

out of Downing Street by Wednesday. Theresa May will take over the reins

and there will be no contest amongst the Conservative Party members. They

were going to have a say between her and some, but after a pretty torrid

first few days of her campaign she, a junior minister without much

experience in government, I think it was all a bit too much. She said she

did not have enough backing of Conservative MPs she withdrew from

the race. So Theresa May probably will cut this morning thinking she

had a tough eight weeks of campaigning ahead of her, found she

was going to be Prime Minister. She was an Remain campaigner. She

was adamant today that drags it means Brexit and she would not go

back on the referendum result in any way, that she wasn't going to let

Britain by the back to rejoin the EU. She has years ahead of her of

those negotiations. She has said already that she will form a Brexit

unit, appointing senior figures to lead those negotiations. The

question will be will Brexit just dominate everything in the coming

years for what should be able to focus on the other issues. She made

a great played today talking about being a one nation Conservative. She

has talked about inequality, about helping the purest. What will be her

challenge will be trying to do other things when it comes to public

services, other reforms she might want to do which are not part of

Brexit because that will dominate the political debate so much in the

coming months. Vicki Young, thank you.

So, her move into Number 10 Downing Street will be swift,

but what has gotten Theresa May to this point?

And what kind of Prime Minister will she be?

Our Deputy Political Editor, John Pienaar, has been finding out.

Just moments before she knew the job was hers,

She doesn't do showy, thinks Britain has had enough surprises,

A society that works for everyone, so we bring people back together,

rich and poor, north and south, urban and rural, young and old,

male and female, black and white, sick and healthy, public sector,

private sector, those with skills and those without.

It was a pitch to be a one nation Prime Minister,

Workers in boardrooms, curbs on corporate pay

We need to unite our party and our country.

We need a bold new positive vision for the future of our country, one

that works not for the privileged few, but for every one of us.

She wanted to stay in the EU, yes, but that was then.

Now she looked control EU migration and get the best deal

Brexit means Brexit, and we will make a success of it.

Theresa May's story is not remarkable.

Middle-class, dad a vicar, Grammar School and Oxford,

where she met her future husband, Phillip, who was at her side today.

She's private, and likes it like that.

But since her time working in the city, since the start

of her political career, she relied on herself,

and never saw her gender as an obstacle to rising higher.

I have never experienced any barriers in the Conservative Party.

I have never felt that I have had any problems as a woman.

To her, that is a woman who asks and gets no favours.

Many Tories hated it when she told them, in opposition, the wider

Our base is too narrow and so, occasionally, are our sympathies.

A police conference liked her even less when, as Home Secretary,

Theresa May never liked David Cameron's pledge to get

Well, you would be forgiven for missing it, but Britain's main

opposition party has been having their own issues today.

In a very overshadowed announcement, Angela Eagle formally

launched her attempt to oust Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader.

Here's our Political Correspondent Ben Wright.

Are you prepared for a leadership challenge?

Labour MPs have pleaded with Jeremy Corbyn to go they have

resigned from his team in droves but persuasion has failed

This is the Labour MP leading the charge.

I have lodged my papers with the general secretary today

Angela Eagle had threatened to challenge for days

but with the country in political turmoil she said that Labour

could not put up with weak leadership any longer.

She has the support of many party stalwarts, longing for a change

of leadership but Angela Eagle promised to be a break

Jeremy Corbyn has lost the confidence of most Labour MPs,

they think he is an electoral disaster and they want him gone.

But Jeremy Corbyn is banking on the backing of Labour Party

members and paid up supporters to elect him again.

It is that split that has thrown the party into crisis.

David Cameron has announced he will stand down on Wednesday.

Police in Indian-administered Kashmir say five more people

23 people have died and more than 200 people injured

in the violence triggered by the shooting of a well-known

militant leader on Friday. That is on BBC Hindi.

The BBC World Service reports that the Japanese Prime Minister

has promised to use his election victory to deliver a large

stimulus package, to boost the country's flagging economy.

Japanese stocks soared, following the news

South Sudan's President has signed an order to end hostilities

in his country and, in the last few hours,

"South Sudan's Vice-President tells local

independent Eye Radio that he has ordered a ceasefire by his forces,

reciprocating the move by the president."

It comes after five days of heavy fighting in the capital, Juba.

The clashes have involved tanks and helicopter gunships

and it is thought a large number of people have been killed.

The violence comes after many years of sporadic fighting

and on the fifth anniversary of the world's youngest country.

Let me remind you of some of that history.

South Sudan became independent on 9 July, 2011, after decades

of conflict with the Sudanese government in Khartoum.

Just two years later, civil war broke out when this man,

President Salva Kiir, accused his Vice-President,

Riek Machar, of planning a coup. Machar fled the country.

There is no dominant culture in South Sudan, but you can see

from this graph showing ethnicities that there are two main groups.

The fighting was broadly divided along these lines,

between the Dinka, shown here in green and loyal to Mr Kiir,

and the Nuer, in purple, who follow Mr Machar.

A peace deal was agreed in August 2015 but, eight months later,

Machar returned and that deal was broken last Friday.

BBC World Service Africa Editor James Copnall was a correspondent

Let's start, the war is over. The army chief of staff all along loyal

to temp two called all of his trips back to barracks. His spokesman said

that anybody found loitering would be arrested and shot if they

resisted arrest. They are saying that the fighting is over now. High

clear picture of how bad things have been an Juba in the last few days?

Not clear picture but is obviously been very terrible. Bullets have

been flying around, bombs. We know hundreds have been killed in total.

That figure could be higher. People have been killed in GM camps, in the

streets, people seeking shelter in churches. He spent a lot of time in

the region. Five years ago exactly, the amount of hope and joy at the

formation of this country. That came after two decades of civil war.

There was another one before that. But lots of Sudanese their life has

been marked by conflict. On the their independence people thought it

would be the chance for a new country. People he knew South Sudan

well suspected might be problems because of the divisions in the

political leadership, with ethnic tensions, the militarisation of

society. The military runs everything in politics. In many

other places what they called the liberation curse, the people who

leave you to liberation often are not good at running the country

afterwards. All those things sadly came true. This resumption of

fighting over the last few days. Ever since the UK voted

to leave the European Union, we have heard about the problems
