Pressure on Theresa May

over her leadership

and the Government's

Brexit negotiations.

She's warned by some

of her own MPs of drift -

and against a deal that keeps

Britain in the EU in "all but name".

A man wanted in connection

with the car crash that killed three

teenagers in London has handed

himself in to police this evening.

Good evening.

The Prime Minister has

faced mounting criticism

of both her leadership

and her negotiating stance

on Brexit, with fears

expressed by Leave supporters

within her own party

about Britain's final relationship

with the European Union.

about Britain's final relationship

One former Cabinet minister warned

there was a danger that a final deal

might keep Britain in

the EU in "all but name".

A serving minister,

David Lidington, urged party unity.

Chris Mason reports.

If it felt a little bit chilly

for the Prime Minister

at the World Economic Forum

in Switzerland last week, well,

And on top of that, some of those

who campaigned for Brexit fear it

being diluted to such an extent it

never really properly happens.

It is very complicated,

and that is one of the reasons why

I have advocated and supported

compromise, but there is only so far

The Government says it is committed

to delivering Brexit,

but you know when a party is falling

out with itself when senior figures,

like this man, who is effectively

the Prime Minister's deputy,

have to say this.

The Conservative family,

left, right and centre,

because we're a broad church,

needs to come together in a spirit

of mutual respect, you know,

there are differences in any broad

church and look at what the bigger

picture is showing.

The next stage of Brexit

negotiations is about what happens

immediately after we leave

the European Union at the end

of March next year.

It's yet to be formally discussed,

but for around two years,

freedom of movement is expected

to continue, with the Government

introducing a registration

scheme for new arrivals.

The rights of EU citizens

here and UK citizens in the EU look

set to remain the same,

and EU laws will continue to apply.

The Labour leader is facing his own

divisions in a party that

predominantly voted to remain

in the EU, and many whose

supporters, polls suggest,

would like a second referendum,

but Jeremy Corbyn says no to that.

Brexit negotiations

are about to crank up again.

And that's because once the 27 other

ministers have got together and

agreed how they want to proceed, we

already know that there is very

little change in the years

immediately after Brexit. The big

challenge for the Prime Minister is

that where she sees compromise,

others will scream capitulation, and

all of this amid the noise and

chatter and room at Westminster

about Theresa May's own future, the

discontent among her MPs, one

minister saying today that he would

like to see less tortoise and more

lion. She has hauled herself back

from difficult political times

before, but things could combust.

a black Audi mounted the pavement

near this bus stop in Hayes, struck

34-year old man wanted by police

handed himself in this evening. Both

causing death by dangerous driving.

How do you feel now that you've come

Upset, but I'm pleased to see

it, yes.

But as well as grief, there

is anger. It is unclear exactly how

fast the Audi was going, but the

speed limit on this stretch of road

is 60 mph. Many local people say

that is way too high. A retired

police officer told me his son spent

a year in hospital after being hit

here by a speeding driver racing his

friend.

I am angry. I am very bitter

about it. After my son's accident,

there have been other accidents as

well. So one would have expected for

the authorities to do something.

the shock of what happened continues

to sink in, and while the police

continue to question those in

custody, the focus is turning to

stories on the BBC News Channel.

That's all from me, stay

with us on BBC One ,

Hello, this is BBC News, I'm Martine

Croxall.

Roger Federer has beaten Marin Cilic

at the Australian Open in Melbourne

to win his 20th Grand Slam title.

Only three other players

before Federer

- Margaret Court,

Serena Williams and Steffi Graf -

have won 20 or more

major singles titles.

The tennis pundit and former

British number one Annabel Croft

telling us what she's made

of Roger Federer's

landmark win today.

He is an extremely special,

special individual, perhaps one

of the greatest sportsmen

sportsmen that may ever live,

actually, because

what he is achieving

on the courts at the moment,

no-one has won 20 Grand Slam titles,

but it is the manner

in which he is doing it,

at the age of 36, his game

seems to be continuing

to evolve and improve.

You know, when he's in that

mood today, there seems

to be no stopping him,

so absolutely extraordinary

what he is achieving.

But we must say that

several women have managed

to win that many singles

titles, haven't they?

They're ahead of the

men in that respect.

They certainly are -

Serena Williams has 23,

Margaret Court had 23,

so you are absolutely right, and

it has been done by a female before,

but in men's tennis,

you know, he is really

pushing the boundaries,

and when you think that

Pete Sampras, many years ago,

when he achieved those 14 Grand Slam

titles going ahead of everyone else,

I don't think anyone predicted

this would happen so soon,

in the next generation.

But it is quite extraordinary

what he is achieving.

What struck me was how emotional

he was after winning this,

despite having won so many

tennis competitions.

It was surprising, we all know

that he is an emotional character,

we all remember some tears

on that very court

when Rafael Nadal

beat him many years ago

in the finals of

the Australian Open.

So he is capable of emotion

and tears, but there seems to be

something that the extra special

that he was achieving 20 titles.

There was just something special

about that, and I think also

what he has been through

over the last couple of years,

that knee surgery,

he left Wimbledon last year,

and we didn't see him back

on the tour for six months,

when he turned up in Australia

with 17 titles, it was almost

five years since he had

won the previous one,

when he had beaten Andy

Murray at Wimbledon.

And then suddenly

he has added three more,

and who knows how many more

he may add this year?

The tennis he is is putting out

there is aggressive,

it is up-tempo, fast-paced,

many layers to

what he can put on the court,

really quite something.

I feel cheeky saying this,

because I am considerably older

than him, but he is 36 -

how much longer can he keep going?

He has to be careful what he chooses

is to play in, has he?

We talked about some

of the adaptations he has made,

a lot of that is down to schedules,

he used to play a lot of tennis,

but then he realised,

as was getting older,

he had to cut that down,

and I think he felt that was a risk,

but it has paid off,

so he has been incredibly clever

how he is trying to peak

at the right times.

Remember, last year he cut out

the whole of the French Open,

all of the clay-court season,

focusing mainly on Wimbledon.

And it paid off, he added

an eighth Wimbledon title,

that has never been done before.

So he continues to evolve,

but also it's the sort of tennis

he is putting out,

I think it is a little bit different

from everybody else,

unbelievably aggressive,

willing to take risks,

he comes to the net often

and has shortened the points -

very clever, because at 36,

he doesn't want to get

drawn into long rallies.

So he is evolving all the time

and laying down the mantle

for all the youngsters coming up

and nipping at his heels,

showing them how to play tennis.

A favourite for Wimbledon this year?

After that victory today,

very much a favourite.

At the moment, quite an interesting

transitional period in tennis,

because we have got the old guard

of Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer

doing what they did,

Rafael Nadal had an injury

with his hip during

the Australian Open this year,

and then a whole host of exciting

new youngsters coming through,

and yet he continues to keep

putting them in their place,

so I have to say, with eight titles

at Wimbledon under his belt,

as we head towards
