:00:13. > :00:14.It was Jeremy Corbyn's first as Labour leader -
:00:15. > :00:19.prompting a very public row among Labour MPs.
:00:20. > :00:21.Three party spokesmen resigned in protest,
:00:22. > :00:26.unhappy with the leader's handling and citing policy differences.
:00:27. > :00:29.It has been completely chaotic, and I think it also shows
:00:30. > :00:35.how Jeremy and his office don't understand how Parliament works.
:00:36. > :00:38.What we wanted was to ensure that we had a coherent
:00:39. > :00:44.representation of the party's policies both in the Shadow Cabinet
:00:45. > :00:51.and right the way across that party, and that's what we are achieving.
:00:52. > :00:53.We'll have details of Labour's changes
:00:54. > :00:55.and the divided opinion within the parliamentary party.
:00:56. > :00:57.Also tonight, in North Korea, a spirited announcement

:01:11. > :01:12.In Germany, police are criticised for failing to prevent
:01:13. > :01:20.a wave of attacks on women on New Year's Eve in Cologne.

:01:58. > :02:02.Jeremy Corbyn's first reshuffle as Labour leader has prompted
:02:03. > :02:06.public recriminations and the resignations of three spokesmen,

:02:14. > :02:16.disagreement on policy especially defence and nuclear issues.
:02:17. > :02:18.But Mr Corbyn's supporters have defended
:02:19. > :02:24.accusing his critics of belonging to a right-wing clique.
:02:25. > :02:26.For the latest, let's join our political editor,
:02:27. > :02:41.Huw, this whole process has not just been chaotic but also slow. It began
:02:42. > :02:44.48 very long hours ago, and although I am told they are imminent, we are
:02:45. > :02:49.waiting for the last couple of names to complete the list. It has also
:02:50. > :02:51.been very personal and today turned very bitter. The path to get here
:02:52. > :02:53.has been anything but smooth. He is meant to be the boss,
:02:54. > :02:57.but Jeremy Corbyn's first reshuffle has been a painful journey
:02:58. > :02:59.for his party. The most angst in recent days
:03:00. > :03:03.over the Shadow Foreign Secretary. Mr Corbyn wanted to move
:03:04. > :03:06.Hilary Benn, but he stayed put, it was claimed with a promise
:03:07. > :03:09.to be less critical, but does he think
:03:10. > :03:11.anything has changed? I'm going to be carrying
:03:12. > :03:16.on doing my job exactly as before, which is speaking for
:03:17. > :03:18.Labour on foreign policy. Not quite the same as from
:03:19. > :03:21.the Shadow Chancellor, Mr Corbyn's closest ally,
:03:22. > :03:24.who spent the day defending the changes -
:03:25. > :03:27.they do take some explaining. None of us were arguing,
:03:28. > :03:30.publicly or privately, We were saying, basically,
:03:31. > :03:35.what we wanted was to ensure that we had a coherent
:03:36. > :03:39.representation of the party's policies both in Shadow Cabinet
:03:40. > :03:50.and right the way across the party. The last 24 hours have been
:03:51. > :03:53.a damaging pantomime. While Jeremy Corbyn's been
:03:54. > :03:55.bunkered up in his office he hasn't always seemed
:03:56. > :03:57.in charge of events, and, simply, he didn't
:03:58. > :03:59.have the clout to make all of the changes
:04:00. > :04:02.he wanted to. But the Labour leader was able
:04:03. > :04:04.to recast his Shadow Cabinet more in line
:04:05. > :04:06.with his own priorities. Despite two long days
:04:07. > :04:10.and nights of wrangling, Mr Corbyn did move nuclear
:04:11. > :04:13.weapons supporting Maria Eagle from defence to
:04:14. > :04:15.take charge of culture. I'm looking forward to getting
:04:16. > :04:18.on with my new job, and no doubt I will talk to you again
:04:19. > :04:21.in that capacity in due course. Emily Thornberry,
:04:22. > :04:23.who is anti-Trident, a politician resigning live
:04:24. > :04:33.on television, the mood in parts of Labour
:04:34. > :04:37.this morning - toxic. I've just written
:04:38. > :04:39.to Jeremy Corbyn I think the things that
:04:40. > :04:47.are being said, that are being briefed at,
:04:48. > :04:49.that I've seen people being briefed at this morning,
:04:50. > :04:51.are simply not true. Undoubtedly, they'll do it
:04:52. > :04:53.about other individuals. Two others announced
:04:54. > :04:56.their departures as well, on radio and even on Facebook,
:04:57. > :04:59.after a frontbencher, because of these comments in
:05:00. > :05:03.the wake of the Paris attacks. No-one forces them to kill
:05:04. > :05:05.innocent people in Paris or Beirut, and unless we are clear about that,
:05:06. > :05:09.we will fail even to be able let alone confront it
:05:10. > :05:14.and ultimately overcome it. but today's chaos will be
:05:15. > :05:21.remembered. Yet for Jeremy Corbyn's
:05:22. > :05:24.many thousands of supporters around the country,
:05:25. > :05:37.this flexing of his muscles After all of that, what are we
:05:38. > :05:43.really left with in terms of the Labour Party and its immediate
:05:44. > :05:47.future? There is a real clash on display of a fundamentalist use,
:05:48. > :05:52.defence and national security, but remember, from day one, there has
:05:53. > :05:55.been a real gap between Jeremy Corbyn's thousands of very
:05:56. > :05:58.enthusiastic supporters around the country and many Labour MPs, who
:05:59. > :06:03.taught from the off that his leadership was a nonstarter. -- who
:06:04. > :06:08.thought. That reachable process has made the gap deeper and wider, and
:06:09. > :06:14.made the tensions even more strained. -- reshuffle. It looks
:06:15. > :06:17.like a party that is coming to terms with itself, not a party that will
:06:18. > :06:20.find it easy to get the public on its side.
:06:21. > :06:23.North Korea is facing the prospect of further international sanctions
:06:24. > :06:24.following claims from the country's regime
:06:25. > :06:27.that it's successfully tested a hydrogen bomb.
:06:28. > :06:30.The UN Security Council has been holding an emergency meeting,
:06:31. > :06:33.and the Americans, while expressing doubts about the claims,
:06:34. > :06:34.warned North Korea against provocative action.
:06:35. > :06:36.The test was detected when an earthquake happened
:06:37. > :06:39.near a nuclear site in the north of the country this morning.
:06:40. > :06:40.Our correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes
:06:41. > :06:46.reports from neighbouring South Korea.
:06:47. > :06:51.At ten o'clock in the morning, North Korean state television
:06:52. > :06:59.made the dramatic announcement as only it can.
:07:00. > :07:03."A successful hydrogen-bomb test has been carried out,"
:07:04. > :07:11.crowds had been marshalled to watch the announcement.
:07:12. > :07:18.they measured a man-made earthquake caused by the explosion.
:07:19. > :07:21.It was not very big, and it remains unclear
:07:22. > :07:24.if this latest test really was a hydrogen device,
:07:25. > :07:30.So what is the difference between a hydrogen bomb
:07:31. > :07:37.Atomic bombs were first dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
:07:38. > :07:40.The blast is created by splitting an atom,
:07:41. > :07:45.releasing the huge amount of energy contained inside.
:07:46. > :07:49.Hydrogen bombs use an atomic bomb to force elements together,
:07:50. > :07:52.creating what is called a fusion reaction.
:07:53. > :07:54.The resulting blast is thousands of times
:07:55. > :07:57.more powerful than an atomic bomb,
:07:58. > :08:01.but hydrogen bombs are much more difficult to make.
:08:02. > :08:04.Hydrogen bombs, or thermonuclear weapons,
:08:05. > :08:06.are very difficult to build, and it's highly unlikely
:08:07. > :08:09.that North Korea has this capability.
:08:10. > :08:11.But the important thing for North
:08:12. > :08:14.Korea is that it sees nuclear weapons capabilities
:08:15. > :08:16.as a deterrent, a deterrent against
:08:17. > :08:22.offensive attack from South Korea and the US.
:08:23. > :08:25.North Korea's soldiers may be good at goose-stepping,
:08:26. > :08:28.but a hydrogen bomb would put this impoverished country
:08:29. > :08:36.The main beneficiary would be its young dictator, Kim Jong-un.
:08:37. > :08:45.nuclear weapons are about one thing - his own survival.
:08:46. > :08:49.Perhaps Kim Jong-un wants to tell his domestic constituents
:08:50. > :08:53.that he is powerful, he is strong, he is in control of his regime
:08:54. > :08:56.that he just took over a few years ago.
:08:57. > :08:58.He also seems to be trying to tell the international community
:08:59. > :09:02.that he is, his country is a nuclear weapons state,
:09:03. > :09:05.and that means his country is a nuclear power.
:09:06. > :09:08.For people living here in Seoul, the idea that North Korea,
:09:09. > :09:10.just 30 miles away to the north of here,
:09:11. > :09:13.may now have a hydrogen bomb is pretty terrifying.
:09:14. > :09:17.But the question remains, what can the world do about it?
:09:18. > :09:20.Sanctions have been tried and have failed.
:09:21. > :09:24.Maybe it is now time for the world to engage with North Korea.
:09:25. > :09:27.But it's very hard to see how any Western leader
:09:28. > :09:35.can engage with a regime that has just set off a nuclear device.
:09:36. > :09:38.In New York, the UN Security Council has met in emergency session
:09:39. > :09:41.to condemn North Korea and to consider what to do next.
:09:42. > :09:46.This act is a profoundly destabilising for regional security
:09:47. > :09:52.international nonproliferation efforts.
:09:53. > :10:02.So far, North Korea has succeeded in defying everyone,
:10:03. > :10:06.including China, in exploding four nuclear devices.
:10:07. > :10:09.But its ambition is to go much further,
:10:10. > :10:13.to put a nuclear weapon on board a missile that can reach America.
:10:14. > :10:19.Rupert Wingfield-Hayes, BBC News, in Seoul.
:10:20. > :10:24.Our North America editor, Jon Sopel, is in Washington for us tonight,
:10:25. > :10:33.and, Jon, a good deal of scepticism?
:10:34. > :10:40.High. The President's spokesman said their initial analysis suggested
:10:41. > :10:43.this was not a hydrogen bomb that had been exploded by North Korea,
:10:44. > :10:47.and therefore America is not changing its assessment of the
:10:48. > :10:50.strategic threat posed by North Korea. There was unequivocal
:10:51. > :10:54.condemnation of what they have done and a call to stop the provocation.
:10:55. > :10:59.John Kerry has said the United States does not and will not accept
:11:00. > :11:03.North Korea as a nuclear armed power, and there is some relief, I
:11:04. > :11:08.think, in America that you have Russia and China in concert
:11:09. > :11:12.condemning the move. Now, as we heard in Rupert's report, the UN
:11:13. > :11:17.Security Council as met and talked about further significant measures
:11:18. > :11:20.because of the gravity of the violation against already existing
:11:21. > :11:25.UN resolutions, so a tougher sanctions package. The conundrum is,
:11:26. > :11:31.what is going to work that has not worked before? To that question,
:11:32. > :11:33.there are no easy answers. All right, Jon, thanks again, Jon Sopel
:11:34. > :11:35.at the White House. The chairman of the Environment
:11:36. > :11:37.Agency, Sir Philip Dilley, says he regrets not coming back
:11:38. > :11:40.earlier from a holiday in the Caribbean when the recent
:11:41. > :11:42.storms caused severe flooding He was giving evidence
:11:43. > :11:46.to a parliamentary committee he had been in contact with his team
:11:47. > :11:50.while he was away. Our home editor, Mark Easton,
:11:51. > :11:53.has more details. The floodwaters may have subsided,
:11:54. > :11:56.but in many parts of northern England, frustration and anger

:12:17. > :12:22.chairman of the Environment Agency. A tanned Environment Agency chief,
:12:23. > :12:25.Sir Philip Dilley, was asked if he regretted
:12:26. > :12:28.not returning earlier from his holiday home in Barbados
:12:29. > :12:33.while devastating floods hit the UK. This was a PR disaster
:12:34. > :12:36.for you personally, wasn't it? Yes, as I said, in
:12:37. > :12:39.hindsight, it would have been much better if I'd come back
:12:40. > :12:43.as early as I could, Officials blame exceptional
:12:44. > :12:48.rainfall for flood defences being overwhelmed

:13:14. > :13:20.David Cameron was challenged over whether his government
:13:21. > :13:24.has done enough to prevent the floods
:13:25. > :13:26.in northern England. I have the greatest sympathy
:13:27. > :13:28.with anyone that has been flooded, and we have to do what it
:13:29. > :13:31.takes to get people and get to communities back
:13:32. > :13:34.on their feet, and that is why we have but record sums
:13:35. > :13:38.in more quickly to help communities in Cumbria, in Lancashire,

:13:41. > :13:49.defence scheme has been cancelled, postponed
:13:50. > :13:57.or cut. and too many
:13:58. > :14:01.lessons have been ignored. The argument is over
:14:02. > :14:02.whether the Government should focus more on long-term
:14:03. > :14:04.strategic investment, things like the Thames Barrier,
:14:05. > :14:06.rather than what critics say is short-term, reactive
:14:07. > :14:08.spending on flood defences, responding to rising
:14:09. > :14:10.levels of misery. Over the last decade,
:14:11. > :14:14.central government real-terms spending on flood defences rose
:14:15. > :14:19.after the floods of 2007 and 2009, fell when the coalition
:14:20. > :14:21.came to power, rose again after the devastating
:14:22. > :14:25.floods of 2014, and has now fallen back a little,
:14:26. > :14:30.although increases are promised. There is more flooding
:14:31. > :14:33.happening more frequently, and so therefore we need
:14:34. > :14:41.to do more about it. I don't feel you're being
:14:42. > :14:44.dynamic enough about it. If you had asked us that question
:14:45. > :14:47.on the 1st of December, I think the answer would be
:14:48. > :14:49.we are properly funded... Nothing was abnormal up
:14:50. > :14:52.until the 1st of December. Thereafter, the changes that
:14:53. > :14:54.we've experienced are potentially ones
:14:55. > :14:56.that need to adjust it. The bad weather brought
:14:57. > :14:57.more disruption with a 70 tonne landslide

:27:01. > :27:06.with my word and I implement Fifa, of course, has been
:27:07. > :27:11.notoriously resistant to change. For Ali, overcoming that
