The race for Ten Downing Street.

:00:11.:00:14.

We have a result in the first of a series of ballots to find

:00:15.:00:18.

Of the five candidates competing to take over from David Cameron -

:00:19.:00:22.

the clear winner in this first round is Theresa May.

:00:23.:00:24.

Liam Fox is placed last and withdraws.

The Department of Justice makes the final decision on matters like this

:00:38.:00:48.

but we are expressing the view that no charges are appropriate in this

dies at the age of 76. Great Britain is one step closer to

:01:03.:01:04.

having a new prime minister. The British Home Secretary,

:01:05.:01:30.

Theresa May, has emerged with the most votes from the first

:01:31.:01:32.

round of the Conservative party leadership contest

:01:33.:01:35.

to succeed David Cameron. A former Defence Secretary,

:01:36.:01:37.

Liam Fox, was the first of the five hopefuls to be eliminated

:01:38.:01:39.

when the result of the ballot of Tory MPs was announced

:01:40.:01:42.

just under an hour ago. The MPs will hold more votes

:01:43.:01:44.

until there are just two candidates left,

:01:45.:01:47.

who will then be voted An overwhelming victory for the Home

:01:48.:02:04.

Secretary, Theresa May, with 165 votes. Well ahead of her nearest

:02:05.:02:10.

rival, Andrea Leadsom, the energy minister who campaigned hard for

:02:11.:02:15.

leaving the union with 66 votes. Just behind her, the Justice

:02:16.:02:19.

Secretary, Michael Gove, on 48 votes. He was also on the Out

:02:20.:02:25.

campaign. He put himself forward and pulled out of supporting Boris

:02:26.:02:30.

Johnson. Stephen Crabb is next on 34 votes. He was on the Remain side. In

:02:31.:02:35.

fifth place, Doctor Liam Fox, with just 16. He now drops out of the

:02:36.:02:41.

contest. And his supporters will have to choose where they go next.

:02:42.:02:48.

Laura Kuenssberg. That came in about half a narrow go live on the BBC.

:02:49.:02:54.

Commenting on those results, Theresa May has made a statement and said, I

:02:55.:02:58.

am pleased with this result and grateful to my colleagues for their

:02:59.:03:02.

support. There is a big job to do to unite the party and country. He

:03:03.:03:08.

says, I am the only candidate capable of delivering these things

:03:09.:03:11.

as a prime Minister and the only one capable of drawing support from the

:03:12.:03:16.

whole of the party. She says, I look forward to continuing the debate in

:03:17.:03:21.

Parliament and across the country. She has said she does not want a

:03:22.:03:25.

so-called coronation. She does want this to go to the membership. We

:03:26.:03:30.

will get more on this with our correspondent on this whole

:03:31.:03:37.

question. Let's catch up with the days news from around the world now.

:03:38.:03:42.

The FBI Director has presented his conclusions

:03:43.:03:44.

after a long investigation about the use of a private

:03:45.:03:46.

email and classified information by Hilary Clinton.

:03:47.:03:48.

James Comey said while they did not find clear evidence that Clinton

:03:49.:03:50.

intended to violate laws - there is evidence that she was

:03:51.:03:53.

careless with dealing with classified information.

:03:54.:03:55.

He criticized the security culture at the state department -

:03:56.:03:57.

but concluded there should be no prosecution.

:03:58.:04:05.

There is evidence of potential violations of the statute regarding

:04:06.:04:12.

classified information but our judgment is no reasonable prosecutor

:04:13.:04:17.

would bring such a case. Prosecutors way up a number of factors before

:04:18.:04:21.

deciding whether to bring charges. There are considerations like the

:04:22.:04:25.

strength of evidence, regarding intent, responsible decisions and

:04:26.:04:30.

the context of actions and how similar situations have been handled

:04:31.:04:35.

in the past. In looking back at this investigation into the mishandling,

:04:36.:04:40.

or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case

:04:41.:04:43.

that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts.

:04:44.:04:46.

However, Mr Comey did say Mrs Clinton had been extremely

:04:47.:04:49.

careless and that he'd referred the investigation to

:04:50.:04:51.

Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton, all

:04:52.:05:01.

her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of is

:05:02.:05:06.

about information, there is evidence they were extremely careless in

:05:07.:05:10.

handling very sensitive and highly classified information. For example,

:05:11.:05:16.

seven e-mail chains concerned matters which were classified at the

:05:17.:05:20.

top secret special access programme at the time they were sent and

:05:21.:05:24.

received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton sending e-mails

:05:25.:05:30.

about these matters and receiving e-mails about the same matters.

:05:31.:05:34.

There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable

:05:35.:05:38.

person in Secretary Clinton's position or in the position of those

:05:39.:05:42.

with whom she was corresponding should have known that an

:05:43.:05:45.

unclassified system was no place for that conversation. The highest

:05:46.:05:59.

religious authorities in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Iran have

:06:00.:06:05.

denounced the bombing. Four security officers were killed in the attack.

:06:06.:06:15.

This is one of the holiest sites of Islam, visited I millions of

:06:16.:06:19.

pilgrims every year. This mosque was crowded, but it was said the bomber

:06:20.:06:25.

detonated his device at a building nearby. At around the same time a

:06:26.:06:30.

second bomb struck at a mosque on the other side of the country. This

:06:31.:06:35.

area has a large Shia community in a nation dominated by Sunni Muslims.

:06:36.:06:39.

There were no reports of casualties. In part because many people were

:06:40.:06:44.

inside preparing to break the Ramadan fast. It was the third

:06:45.:06:49.

attack in Saudi Arabia in a single day. The first was here. The

:06:50.:06:55.

Interior Ministry said a suicide bomber blew himself up when

:06:56.:06:58.

approached by security guards near the US consulate. This attack are

:06:59.:07:04.

also died and two guards were slightly injured, according to the

:07:05.:07:08.

ministry statement. It coincided with the American Independence Day

:07:09.:07:12.

holiday and the consulate urged Americans to take extra cautions

:07:13.:07:14.

when travelling through Saudi Arabia. Nobody has yet claimed

:07:15.:07:20.

responsibility for the bombings. The pass two years have seen a string of

:07:21.:07:24.

attacks in Saudi Arabia by so-called Islamic State.

:07:25.:07:30.

Now a look at some of the day's other news.

:07:31.:07:40.

A shopping centre has been attacked in Baghdad. The governor has been

:07:41.:07:45.

critical of the checkpoints across the city and it is not clear if his

:07:46.:07:48.

resignation will be accepted. Teachers, doctors and nurses have

:07:49.:07:52.

caused partly by the country's worst Activists have called for a national

:08:00.:08:03.

of a freak storm in Cuba, which created powerful waterspouts,

:08:04.:08:06.

injuring 38 people. Reports say the waterspouts formed

:08:07.:08:14.

on Saturday evening, near a beach in the south

:08:15.:08:16.

of the country. More than 30 homes, offices

:08:17.:08:18.

and shops were damaged. The head of a French inquiry

:08:19.:08:21.

into last year's terrorist attacks in Paris has said that the events

:08:22.:08:24.

highlighted several flaws in the country's intelligence

:08:25.:08:27.

and security operations. The parliamentary inquiry said

:08:28.:08:30.

all the French attackers had been known to authorities,

:08:31.:08:32.

but that different, competing, agencies had not

:08:33.:08:34.

communicated with each other. After the casualty

and uncoordination, where elite counterterrorism unit sat idle

the commissioner said, with suspects left unmonitored and

communication poor. What was needed, they said,

was a new national agency. TRANSLATION: Because of this,

safety blown apart by of hours and is still a long way

:11:02.:11:10.

from being repaired. Back to our top story. We have had

:11:11.:11:22.

numbers in the first ballot of voters in the Conservative

:11:23.:11:26.

leadership race. One MP has been eliminated. Theresa May winning the

:11:27.:11:31.

overall majority with more than half the parliamentary party. More

:11:32.:11:36.

reaction now from Ed Vaizey, who is supporting Michael Gove. Just to

:11:37.:11:41.

clarify for the international viewers, you supported the Remain

:11:42.:11:47.

and you supported Michael Gove, who was one of the Brexit cheerleaders.

:11:48.:11:53.

First of all, your response? Theresa May has more than half the

:11:54.:11:55.

parliamentary party. She has been the favoured since this contest was

:11:56.:12:00.

announced. She has been very well respected and a prominent

:12:01.:12:05.

politician. Michael Gove and the others to some extent are fighting

:12:06.:12:08.

for the other boats. I think Michael Gove has done very well. He has come

:12:09.:12:13.

in third place but it is neck and neck and win the person coming

:12:14.:12:18.

second and Michael Gove in third. There is everything to play for if

:12:19.:12:22.

you supported Michael Gove as I do to be the next British Prime

:12:23.:12:27.

Minister. Theresa May has said that she is the only person capable of

:12:28.:12:30.

during support from the whole of the party. Would it be more dignified,

:12:31.:12:35.

given what Michael Gove has done, for him to withdraw and unite around

:12:36.:12:38.

the clear favourite? The nation needs leadership of doesn't it? It

:12:39.:12:44.

does but I think what Theresa May has said is that it is important

:12:45.:12:48.

that we have a run-off between the last two candidates. As you know and

:12:49.:12:52.

your viewers might know it goes to the membership of the party, some

:12:53.:12:59.

130,000 people will get to vote. I think Theresa May and Michael Gove

:13:00.:13:01.

agree that there should be a debate because they have different visions

:13:02.:13:05.

of the future. Everybody understands the outcome of the Referendum, that

:13:06.:13:09.

Britain will be leaving the European Union. But there are other agendas

:13:10.:13:15.

about the future. Some of the issues for example behind the Referendum,

:13:16.:13:18.

the growing social divide where Michael Gove has proved in his

:13:19.:13:25.

record in reforming schools and Theresa May in reforming prisons,

:13:26.:13:28.

this is a high priority and it will appeal to Conservative MPs in the

:13:29.:13:32.

next ballot and also members if Michael can be one of the two. He is

:13:33.:13:38.

seen to have damaged his own standing in the party and the

:13:39.:13:41.

country by being seen to have stabbed his friend David Cameron in

:13:42.:13:45.

the back and stabbing Boris, effectively, as well. If he is

:13:46.:13:50.

pushed out in the next round and there is a run-off between Theresa

:13:51.:13:55.

May and Andrea Leadsom, where will his boats go? Who would you support?

:13:56.:14:00.

I do not expect Michael Gove to be pushed out in the next round and I

:14:01.:14:03.

am confident that he will be on the ballot as one of two people that

:14:04.:14:09.

people can choose from. I reject the idea that he stabbed David Cameron

:14:10.:14:13.

and Boris Johnson. He followed his principles. I campaigned to remain

:14:14.:14:17.

and David Cameron made it clear individual ministers were free to

:14:18.:14:21.

campaign on whatever side of the argument they felt was right. That

:14:22.:14:27.

is what Michael did. He proved in self as somebody who lost against

:14:28.:14:30.

Michael Gove and his team, he proved himself to be a resourceful and

:14:31.:14:37.

convincing campaigner. Very quickly, Liam Fox had 16 votes and presumably

:14:38.:14:40.

they will go to Andrea Leadsom and it will possibly tip that over and

:14:41.:14:46.

push Michael Gove into last place. That is very unlikely. I think a lot

:14:47.:14:50.

of them will go to Michael Gove and I think he has picked up support

:14:51.:14:54.

throughout. It was not started in the best way possible but you have

:14:55.:14:57.

seen a momentum building behind Michael Gove. We will have to leave

:14:58.:15:00.

it there. Thank you for joining us. Our political correspondent,

:15:01.:15:04.

Vicky Young, joins It has been a very interesting last

:15:05.:15:13.

hour. What are people saying to you here? Everybody is trying to guess

:15:14.:15:18.

how the numbers will fall. Liam Fox drops out. 16 votes. It is very hard

:15:19.:15:25.

to work out where they will go. I think you can assume with most of

:15:26.:15:29.

them they would go for somebody who backed Brexit. He was such a

:15:30.:15:34.

forthright and Pena for the UK leaving the European Union. --

:15:35.:15:40.

campaigner. Whether they go to Andrea Leadsom or Michael Gove I

:15:41.:15:43.

think it is impossible to tell. Some people think they will go to Andrea

:15:44.:15:48.

Letson and that will propel her into the top two. If you look at the

:15:49.:15:54.

percentages, yes, Theresa May has got 50% of Tory MPs supporting her

:15:55.:15:59.

in this all stop but it is not like other contests where it gets you

:16:00.:16:02.

over the line and you go through automatically. It is about Tory MPs

:16:03.:16:07.

whittling down a field of five down to the final two and they will then

:16:08.:16:11.

go onto the ballot paper and they will be voted on by party members

:16:12.:16:15.

who will be electing not only the leader of the party, but their prime

:16:16.:16:20.

minister. That is one of the crucial things in this race. This person

:16:21.:16:25.

will have to go straight in and become Prime Minister. No general

:16:26.:16:30.

election is required. That is why very many of Theresa May's backers

:16:31.:16:35.

are pointing to her experience. She has been in the Cabinet for several

:16:36.:16:37.

years and has been the longest serving Home Secretary for a long

:16:38.:16:42.

time and compare to Andrea Leadsom who has not been in the Cabinet, G

:16:43.:16:46.

has experience outside Westminster, many MPs say they do not think she

:16:47.:16:51.

is ready for the job yet. Just to clarify, we saw pictures of Andrea

:16:52.:16:56.

Leadsom. Apparently she did not perform well last night in front of

:16:57.:17:01.

MPs but she picked up quite a few boats. Is it possible we could still

:17:02.:17:06.

have a correlation? Theresa May said she wanted it to go to the

:17:07.:17:09.

membership and they are thought to be quite Eurosceptic in general. Is

:17:10.:17:15.

it possible pressure is building up for Theresa May to be given the job?

:17:16.:17:22.

I do not think that will happen. In the current climate, the

:17:23.:17:24.

Conservative party are split over Brexit. I think it is unlikely

:17:25.:17:30.

Theresa May would just be crowned and I think it would cause problems

:17:31.:17:33.

later, and quite a lot of resentment. Even MPs supporting

:17:34.:17:38.

Remain said they wanted a contest and they want it to be between

:17:39.:17:43.

Theresa May and somebody from the Brexit 's side. At this stage I

:17:44.:17:48.

cannot see that happening. Andrea Leadsom could creep a little bit

:17:49.:17:52.

closer in the next round. And her supporters are saying this is as

:17:53.:17:56.

much as Theresa May will get. She will not pick up any more. Even

:17:57.:18:00.

though there is a lot of pressure from outside, because some people

:18:01.:18:05.

have said we have voted to leave the European Union and we need to get on

:18:06.:18:08.

with it and start thinking about how to go through the process, at the

:18:09.:18:12.

moment I do not think the Conservative party fancies any kind

:18:13.:18:15.

of correlation. Thanks very much indeed. We will go to Washington. We

:18:16.:18:24.

have had a very interesting statement from the FBI on the

:18:25.:18:26.

investigation into Hillary Clinton's e-mails. Barbara Platt is in

:18:27.:18:33.

Washington. Bring us up to date. We have had an update from the White

:18:34.:18:39.

House as well. Yes, we have got reaction from the Clinton campaign

:18:40.:18:44.

and the Donald Trump campaign and the other Republicans. The Clinton

:18:45.:18:50.

campaign say they welcome it and they are glad it can be resolved.

:18:51.:18:54.

They said Hillary Clinton all along said she made a mistake and had

:18:55.:18:57.

apologised and would never do it again. They are hoping the fact that

:18:58.:19:02.

there is almost certainly no legal threats to her campaign means they

:19:03.:19:07.

can begin to put it behind them and get on with the rest of it. I think

:19:08.:19:12.

the response from Republicans show politically they will try and keep

:19:13.:19:16.

it alive. Donald Trump said that this is a rigged response,

:19:17.:19:21.

essentially saying that she is above the law. That's the evidence was

:19:22.:19:28.

damning and she was not, no charges were filed and other Republicans

:19:29.:19:31.

have said similar things. That'll be the line of attack. That's the

:19:32.:19:35.

Clintons play by different rules and they will try and keep it alive on

:19:36.:19:39.

the campaign trail. Thank Jubilant scenes at mission control
