:04:59. > :04:59.what the authorities should be doing.

:05:00. > :05:02.Are you from the Home Office? No, I live up the road.

:05:03. > :05:05.No one knows that they are here, they are sitting

:05:06. > :05:20.But there are signs of progress, the main rescue centre is now being

:05:21. > :05:22.run by a neighbouring council after all the criticism

:05:23. > :05:31.And the extra foot patrols promised by the Prime Minister are now here,

:05:32. > :05:33.brought in from other parts of London to provide

:05:34. > :05:36.But politicians from all sides know that

:05:37. > :05:43.Angry not simply at the poor response in the days afterwards from

:05:44. > :05:47.the council and the government, but the years of neglect from the

:05:48. > :06:02.Tonight, the Prime Minister has announced that every household

:06:03. > :06:05.affected is to get ?500 cash immediately with at least ?5000 more

:06:06. > :06:08.to follow, and that there will be additional money available to pay

:06:09. > :06:09.for funerals and mental health services.

:06:10. > :06:11.It is a good gesture, I guess, in a way.

:06:12. > :06:14.But Patricia, who lives nearby, told me money is only

:06:15. > :06:20.I'm a mother and a grandmother, and no amount of money

:06:21. > :06:25.The leader of Kensington and Chelsea visited the scene today.

:06:26. > :06:27.He said he understood all the criticism, but he

:06:28. > :06:34.The council has been incredibly active since the early hours

:06:35. > :06:41.I was here at 330 on Wednesday morning, I've been here

:06:42. > :06:45.There are still so many questions about the way

:06:46. > :06:47.the tower was built, the way it was

:06:48. > :06:51.And despite the desperate need for answers, people

:06:52. > :07:01.Gratitude tonight for the firefighters searching through the

:07:02. > :07:05.wreckage, months of gruelling work lie ahead.

:07:06. > :07:09.While politicians talk of the legacy and of lessons learned,

:07:10. > :07:13.One a day like this, they say, it is impossible

:07:14. > :07:25.The families of some of those still missing,

:07:26. > :07:28.remain hopeful their relatives may be alive, but they're

:07:29. > :07:33.also realistic that the chances are slim.

:07:34. > :07:35.Our reporter Sima Kotecha has been speaking to two brothers,

:07:36. > :07:37.searching for six members of their family.

:07:38. > :07:53.This is Nadia's children, Mirna Choucair, Fatima Choucair

:07:54. > :08:01.Two brothers, desperately searching for their family,

:08:02. > :08:13.Today, they came to the tower to be close to where their family once

:08:14. > :08:16.lived, to hope for their return and to pray for all

:08:17. > :08:32.We'll keep coming here and keep hoping to see them again.

:08:33. > :08:35.They describe themselves as bereft and say they have received no help

:08:36. > :08:40.Ministers say they are doing all they can to assist those

:08:41. > :08:52.I feel the community have come together better than the government

:08:53. > :09:03.When the casualty bureau number came out, I actually rang it and it

:09:04. > :09:14.To hear that message, that was just like a knife in the chest,

:09:15. > :09:18.The tall tower looms large here, its shadow dominates the area.

:09:19. > :09:27.I'd like to see reform to all high-rise buildings within London.

:09:28. > :09:29.I want the removal, I'd like to see the government remove any

:09:30. > :09:33.future plans of cladding within high-rise buildings.

:09:34. > :09:38.We need to act, we need to learn from our mistakes.

:09:39. > :09:43.The sunshine blazed down on London today but the mood

:09:44. > :09:52.For many, the pain is too great and too raw.

:09:53. > :10:01.Even though they were on the 22nd floor at the time of

:10:02. > :10:22.We have seen grief and sadness turned to rage against the

:10:23. > :10:28.authorities, some up the feelings of the community now? I think some of

:10:29. > :10:34.the theory that we saw in the first few days has dissipated slightly

:10:35. > :10:37.today. -- some of that period. There is an acknowledgement that things

:10:38. > :10:41.are beginning to get on track and there is a sense of willingness to

:10:42. > :10:47.try to make it work, to get behind it and help this community and help

:10:48. > :10:50.those helping this community, but you walk around the streets this

:10:51. > :10:54.evening and there are so many people who will tell you of their

:10:55. > :10:59.frustration and suspicion and I don't understand why there can't be

:11:00. > :11:02.more accurate figures about the numbers of missing and dead, they

:11:03. > :11:06.have some questions about the cladding and the insulation. They

:11:07. > :11:11.have heard so many theories but there is a growing realisation and

:11:12. > :11:15.acceptance that it could be a long time before they get answers to

:11:16. > :11:18.those questions and I think tonight, having seen those pictures from

:11:19. > :11:23.inside the block which showed how intense the blaze was, I think there

:11:24. > :11:26.is also a growing realisation that some of the families like those we

:11:27. > :11:30.have heard waiting for news, that some of them might never know what

:11:31. > :11:39.happened to their loved ones in there. Thanks for joining us.

:11:40. > :11:44.The Chancellor Philip Hammond, says Brexit talks must safeguard

:11:45. > :11:46.the British economy, and that reaching no deal,

:11:47. > :11:49.He was speaking ahead of the start of negotiations,

:11:50. > :11:51.with the European Commission, due to begin tomorrow.

:11:52. > :11:54.Here's our political correspondent Alex Forsyth.

:11:55. > :11:58.It was a key reason for calling the election.

:11:59. > :12:01.Every vote for the Conservatives will make me stronger

:12:02. > :12:05.when I negotiate for Britain with the Prime Ministers,

:12:06. > :12:12.Presidents and Chancellors of the European Union.

:12:13. > :12:15.On the campaign trail a repeated plea.

:12:16. > :12:17.Strengthen my hand in those Brexit negotiations.

:12:18. > :12:22.Instead, by losing her majority, negotiations look tougher.

:12:23. > :12:28.On Brexit the Prime Minister faces pressure from all sides.

:12:29. > :12:31.Some think the Chancellor who backed Remain is one of those pushing

:12:32. > :12:34.Today he upped the stakes on the need to get

:12:35. > :12:42.No deal would be a very bad bad outcome from Britain.

:12:43. > :12:44.But there is a possible worse outcome that is a deal

:12:45. > :12:46.that is deliberately structured to punish us.

:12:47. > :12:49.To suck the lifeblood out of our economy.

:12:50. > :12:52.He said the UK would leave the single market and the customs

:12:53. > :12:54.union but there couldn't be a cliff edge.

:12:55. > :12:56.There would have to be transitional arrangements to keep trade flowing,

:12:57. > :13:03.He even attacked the Tory election campaign for not making more of it.

:13:04. > :13:06.It's true that my role in the election campaign was not

:13:07. > :13:16.I met lots of very interesting people and I heard lots

:13:17. > :13:33.I would have liked to have made much more of our economic record.

:13:34. > :13:35.Whatever the reason for the election result, this is the outcome.

:13:36. > :13:38.Anger from some, but lacking enough MPs on their own,

:13:39. > :13:39.the Tories have turned to Northern Ireland's

:13:40. > :13:42.Democratic Unionist Party, and their views on Brexit will now

:13:43. > :13:46.Theresa May is facing tough battles here, there's a whole raft of laws

:13:47. > :13:48.relating to Brexit that need to be passed.

:13:49. > :13:50.The Parliamentary session has been extended to two years.

:13:51. > :13:55.The Tories alone are divided about what Brexit should mean.

:13:56. > :13:57.And that's without the views of political opponents.

:13:58. > :14:04.Labour could flex its muscles, suggesting today the UK could stay

:14:05. > :14:07.in the customs union which allows tariff-free trade within the EU.

:14:08. > :14:09.Well, I think that should be left on the table.

:14:10. > :14:11.So we could stay inside the customs union?

:14:12. > :14:15.There's also this notion of no deal being a viable deal

:14:16. > :14:17.which Theresa May and the government have repeatedly said.

:14:18. > :14:20.No deal is what happens if you get to the end of the two years

:14:21. > :14:22.and you haven't been able to reach agreement.

:14:23. > :14:27.Extracting the UK from the EU isn't going to be easy,

:14:28. > :14:30.and there's still no real clarity from anyone about what Brexit

:14:31. > :14:33.should or will look like, but it's clear that here

:14:34. > :14:36.as well as in Brussels, the Prime Minister is

:14:37. > :14:44.It's almost a year since the UK voted to leave the European Union,

:14:45. > :14:47.and it's two months since the formal Brexit process was triggered,

:14:48. > :14:49.under Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty governing

:14:50. > :14:54.That means Brexit will take place in March 2019.

:14:55. > :14:57.So, what will the negotiations in Brussels tomorrow involve?

:14:58. > :15:04.Our Europe correspondent Damian Grammaticas explains.

:15:05. > :15:11.Monday morning 11 o'clock Brussels time, at the seventh floor of EU

:15:12. > :15:15.headquarters, the talks that will decide the UK's future finally

:15:16. > :15:20.began, so who are the key players for the UK? David Davis the Brexit

:15:21. > :15:26.secretary takes the lead and for the EU Michel Barnier is the chief

:15:27. > :15:31.negotiator. A former French Foreign Minister has spent months preparing.

:15:32. > :15:37.Meeting Prime Ministers and chancellors across Europe, and also

:15:38. > :15:41.tweeting, he's not averse to self-promotion, and those who know

:15:42. > :15:44.him say he is level-headed but South, and on holiday he said there

:15:45. > :15:50.is a long road ahead. Michel Barnier is a realist, he is calm, I hope the

:15:51. > :15:56.Conservatives will also be calm because that is the best way for

:15:57. > :16:05.negotiations. The EU has laid out its plan and will expect UK to

:16:06. > :16:09.follow it, and the first phase will deal with exit terms, and only if it

:16:10. > :16:14.is satisfied with move to the second phase, the UK's future relationship

:16:15. > :16:17.with the EU. UK wanted trade talks on the start so that the issues are

:16:18. > :16:24.to be focus on first include citizens rights, the rights of EU

:16:25. > :16:27.citizens in the UK and UK citizens in the EU, and financial

:16:28. > :16:31.obligations, how they will be calculating and the Irish border,

:16:32. > :16:35.how to avoid one between North and South. Some in the EU say one thing

:16:36. > :16:41.Michel Barnier will make clear is that the UK's expectation that it

:16:42. > :16:44.can get as good a deal outside the block as inside is not realistic.

:16:45. > :16:48.What is the wishful thinking that you are hearing that you think he

:16:49. > :16:53.will bring down-to-earth? I give you an example. Great Britain decides to

:16:54. > :16:59.get out of the single market and of the customs union, but decides to be

:17:00. > :17:06.in again. I mean, you are out. You are out. Or you are in, you are in.

:17:07. > :17:09.The talks have to be wrapped up by late next year and the timetable is

:17:10. > :17:14.very tight, the issue is very complex. The concern, a logjam in

:17:15. > :17:22.any one area could scupper the whole thing. BBC news, Brussels.

:17:23. > :17:24.Portugal has declared three days of mourning,

:17:25. > :17:27.as the emergency services battle to contain a forest fire which has

:17:28. > :17:33.The blaze took hold in a densely forested region,

:17:34. > :17:35.of the district of Pedrogao Grande, in central Portugal.

:17:36. > :17:38.Many of those who died were trying to escape the flames in their cars.

:17:39. > :17:45.A desperate, sometimes hopeless, battle against nature.

:17:46. > :17:47.Searing heat, strong winds and low humidity -

:17:48. > :17:55.Large areas of central Portugal now ablaze.

:17:56. > :17:58.This mountainous area is no stranger to forest fires, but these are some

:17:59. > :18:03.The speed and ferocity of the flames catching people

:18:04. > :18:15.As the fire rages on several fronts, entire villages have been evacuated.

:18:16. > :18:20.Officials still not sure what remains.

:18:21. > :18:23.TRANSLATION: We were inside the house, the fire was all around us.

:18:24. > :18:26.The firefighters came to get us out because we could

:18:27. > :18:30.As to whether the house burned or not, it must

:18:31. > :18:41.Almost instantly, we saw the fire on the right hand side of the car,

:18:42. > :18:44.and within 15 seconds at the most, the wind that the fire created

:18:45. > :18:47.leapt across to the other side, and within 30 seconds,

:18:48. > :18:50.it was to the right, to the left, to the back of the car.

:18:51. > :18:53.You had no option but to keep driving into the fire.

:18:54. > :18:55.At times, the response has seemed chaotic.

:18:56. > :18:59.Hundreds of firefighters working furiously since yesterday.

:19:00. > :19:02.But some people say they have been left to fend for themselves

:19:03. > :19:10.Thick low-lying clouds of smoke are making it hard for firefighting

:19:11. > :19:16.France and Spain have sent their aircraft to help.

:19:17. > :19:18.As the death toll mounts, the goverment has declared three

:19:19. > :19:26.With no signs of a break in the weather, this battle isn't over.

:19:27. > :19:47.Exit polls in France suggest President Macron's centrist party

:19:48. > :19:50.has won a clear parliamentary majority in the election there.

:19:51. > :19:52.The far-right leader Marine Le Pen has won a parliamentary

:19:53. > :19:55.Projected results say his La Republique En Marche party

:19:56. > :19:58.and allies secured 62% of the 577 seats in the lower house.

:19:59. > :20:00.The Conservative Les Republicains allies 22%.

:20:01. > :20:02.And Marine Le Pen's Front National 1% of the seats.

:20:03. > :20:07.Two months ago, this result would have stunned France, more than 60%

:20:08. > :20:10.of Parliament won by a party that year ago did not even insist. The

:20:11. > :20:17.only surprise today that they didn't win more. Proof of how much Mr

:20:18. > :20:23.Macron and his party have reshaped French politics. TRANSLATION: Today

:20:24. > :20:27.you have given a clear majority to the president and his majority will

:20:28. > :20:30.have the mission to act for France, the majority of French people have

:20:31. > :20:39.preferred to choose hope over anger over optimism over pessimism. And

:20:40. > :20:43.trust over fear. The Front National won just a handful of seats, one of

:20:44. > :20:47.them going to their lead at Marine Le Pen. She will enter the national

:20:48. > :20:52.parliament for the first time. TRANSLATION: In the face of this

:20:53. > :20:56.party and in the face of this beast of the system, we are the only force

:20:57. > :21:03.of resistance to the dilation of France of its social model and its

:21:04. > :21:05.identity -- dilutions. Never before has a French political party won

:21:06. > :21:11.such a stunning majority from scratch, big enough for Mr Macron to

:21:12. > :21:15.push forward with his bold and controversial Labour reforms, big

:21:16. > :21:22.enough even for him to whether the inexperience and diversity of his

:21:23. > :21:26.new MPs. And with around 200 seats shared amongst a divided opposition,

:21:27. > :21:31.some are asking where real political pressure will come from. We must put

:21:32. > :21:34.something on the table and for the moment we have nothing to put on the

:21:35. > :21:42.table but to say, you are going to work more. And you are going to be

:21:43. > :21:45.paid less. If he will succeed, he will have to cope with us and it

:21:46. > :21:52.will be a fight. Who wins, I don't know. We will see. Emmanuel Macron's

:21:53. > :21:58.sweeping victory hides a more complex national mood, the turnout

:21:59. > :22:01.was just 43% today, the lowest for decades, and many voters wanted

:22:02. > :22:05.change but most did not pick Emmanuel Macron as their first

:22:06. > :22:11.choice for president. And not everyone agrees with his plans for

:22:12. > :22:16.economic reform. His new elected army has been drafted quickly, most

:22:17. > :22:21.have never served before. Having swept away the old political order,

:22:22. > :22:28.will they deliver something new? Lucy Williamson, BBC News, Paris.

:22:29. > :22:29.Pakistan have thrashed the title-holders and their fierce

:22:30. > :22:32.rivals India, by a staggering 180 runs, to win the Champions

:22:33. > :22:36.Pakistan racked up 338-4, before wiping out India for just 158.

:22:37. > :22:45.Here's our Sports Correspondent, Joe Wilson.

:22:46. > :22:50.South London - neutral territory for a rivalry, a relationship.

:22:51. > :22:59.This match, the sporting event of the year.

:23:00. > :23:02.It cost me ?1,000 for a flight, I'm returning tonight,

:23:03. > :23:06.People are selling it for ridiculous prices.

:23:07. > :23:08.Even online it's going for ?1,000, ?500.

:23:09. > :23:12.Pakistan's journey was a surprising one.

:23:13. > :23:20.Foot over the line, no ball, not out.

:23:21. > :23:25.Fakhar Zaman was the reprieved batsman.

:23:26. > :23:29.For a while, the only place he was being caught was in the crowd.

:23:30. > :23:35.His 114 was a foundation for Pakistan.

:23:36. > :23:37.Play until he's 100, you might never match that feeling.

:23:38. > :23:41.Now, these two countries don't tour each other at the moment,
