:00:41. > :00:49.Good afternoon. Jeremy Corbyn has said he is disappointed that Angela

:00:50. > :00:52.Eagle is preparing to launch a challenge for the leadership but has

:00:53. > :01:00.again insisted he has a mandate for the leadership and will not stand

:01:01. > :01:05.down. They will meet on Tuesday to decide whether he can stand without

:01:06. > :01:09.the backing of 50 MPs and MEPs. He says he expects to be on the ballot

:01:10. > :01:15.of any contest. This report contains flash photography. Look at his smile

:01:16. > :01:20.and listen to the cheer. Just last September, Jeremy Corbyn one big to

:01:21. > :01:25.become Labour's leader but ever since, the roar of his many

:01:26. > :01:29.supporters has encountered the Raft of his many MPs. Now his former

:01:30. > :01:33.shadow health -- Shadow Secretary of State wants his help. We need a

:01:34. > :01:36.strengthened Labour Party and an opposition that can unite so we can

:01:37. > :01:41.heal the country and unfortunately I don't think Jeremy can do that job.

:01:42. > :01:45.Appearing on the Andrew Marr Show, he appeared very relaxed. He said he

:01:46. > :01:51.had reached out in a way that no other leader had in an effort -- in

:01:52. > :01:54.an effort to unite Labour. But he acknowledged... I am disappointed

:01:55. > :01:58.but she is free to do that if she wishes to. We have worked together

:01:59. > :02:02.in the past nine months in the Shadow Cabinet and this is an

:02:03. > :02:07.opportunity when we could put enormous pressure on the Tory

:02:08. > :02:10.government. Instead, Labour finds itself in the depths of a crisis,

:02:11. > :02:16.the likes of which it has never seen before. In case you doubt that,

:02:17. > :02:21.listen to the language chosen by this senior Labour MP on Radio 4 to

:02:22. > :02:25.describe her leader. I've known Jeremy for 35 years. I used to think

:02:26. > :02:28.he was a decent man. I'm beginning to think he's actually a devious man

:02:29. > :02:33.who is more concerned with destroying the Labour Party than he

:02:34. > :02:37.is with creating a force that can win an election in such difficult

:02:38. > :02:46.times and which will unite the party. This was Labour's leader last

:02:47. > :02:54.Autumn's party conference. The crowd was delighted and he was eager to

:02:55. > :02:58.going. Any chance we can start? The question now is whether he could

:02:59. > :03:02.soon be finished. Do we actually know whether Jeremy Corbyn will be

:03:03. > :03:06.on this ballot? The very short answer to your question is we don't

:03:07. > :03:12.know. There is a tussle over the rules. Some are arguing that in

:03:13. > :03:18.order for him to be able to stand again he would have to find the

:03:19. > :03:23.support of 51 MPs and MEPs. On the current maths, that looks difficult.

:03:24. > :03:29.On an alternative interpretation of the rules, Jeremy Corbyn's office

:03:30. > :03:33.say he automatically would get onto the ballot and it would be only his

:03:34. > :03:39.contestant who would need to find the support of those MPs. That is

:03:40. > :03:42.the short-term challenge for Labour, which could end up with a legal

:03:43. > :03:49.challenge. The bigger challenge is whatever happens here, either Jeremy

:03:50. > :03:55.Corbyn stays on leaves, Labour still faces huge questions. If he stays

:03:56. > :04:04.on, a lot of his MPs think he should leave. If he is removed, thousands

:04:05. > :04:09.of his activists will feel robbed. The UK anti-doping agency is

:04:10. > :04:11.investigating claims that at least three British athletes received

:04:12. > :04:16.banned drugs whilst training in tenure. Members of staff are in

:04:17. > :04:21.tenure pursuing lines of enquiry after evidence under covered by

:04:22. > :04:25.Sunday Times reporters prompted grave concern. The athletes have not

:04:26. > :04:29.been named. Sir Cliff Richard has concerned he is to sue the BBC and

:04:30. > :04:33.South Yorkshire Police in connection with the filming of a raid on his

:04:34. > :04:37.home two years ago. The raid was carried out by officers looking for

:04:38. > :04:42.evidence of historical six crimes. No charges were brought but Cliff

:04:43. > :04:46.Richard said his life was turned upside down. A Parliamentary

:04:47. > :04:52.committee found the BBC had acted appropriately. Protest against the

:04:53. > :04:59.shooting by police of black men have continued despite a plea by

:05:00. > :05:03.President Obama for the nation to unite. Most of the protests have

:05:04. > :05:10.been peaceful but there have been clashes in Louisiana and Minnesota,

:05:11. > :05:14.with dozens of arrests. This to vultures week has violently exposed

:05:15. > :05:22.the racial divide in America. Three shootings have shaken the nation. It

:05:23. > :05:25.has provoked stand-offs. In Dallas, police headquarters are in lockdown

:05:26. > :05:30.because of anonymous threats. The city remained on alert after the

:05:31. > :05:36.deadly attack by a black army veteran on police. There were

:05:37. > :05:39.expressions of support for policeman here. Other attacks followed

:05:40. > :05:45.elsewhere in the country on individual officers. In Baton Rouge,

:05:46. > :05:54.community leaders work to keep the peace. This image put them on edge.

:05:55. > :06:01.Back Panthers marching. It revives echoes of a more militant era. This

:06:02. > :06:04.is still alive and we need to make sure that we are still unified as a

:06:05. > :06:08.people and not have those things that the terrorist from the mission

:06:09. > :06:16.we are on, to have equality. Silence is violence. Here in Minnesota,

:06:17. > :06:21.protestors are fired up by a video showing a routine traffic stopped

:06:22. > :06:27.turning into a killing. If it can happen to cook at the school,

:06:28. > :06:35.legally carrying his gun in a city like this, it can happen to anyone.

:06:36. > :06:41.In this community, they met to honour the dead and they renewed

:06:42. > :06:45.pledges to fight racial injustice, mindful the service was taking place

:06:46. > :06:54.in the shadow of Dallas. We've got to make sure we don't lose attention

:06:55. > :06:58.of the deaths earlier in the week, as much as our hearts grieve that

:06:59. > :07:02.public servants in the line of duty were slaughtered and that is not

:07:03. > :07:08.acceptable. We've got to be able to hold both in our hands and that's

:07:09. > :07:12.very difficult. Very difficult. It feels like something has changed in

:07:13. > :07:15.America this week. There's been so many shocking deaths in such public

:07:16. > :07:19.ways affecting so many people, including some not normally exposed

:07:20. > :07:23.to this kind of violence. These issues have been around for a long

:07:24. > :07:30.time but people are wondering if this is a really rough patch in an

:07:31. > :07:39.ongoing cycle or a turning point. The family of an American journalist

:07:40. > :07:43.killed in Syria four years ago are suing the regime of President Assad,

:07:44. > :07:47.saying she was murdered as part of a deliberate policy of killing

:07:48. > :07:54.journalists. They say documents smuggled out of Syria shows she was

:07:55. > :07:58.trapped before the artillery strike was directed to kill her. Lord

:07:59. > :08:03.Prescott has said he now believes the decision to go to war against

:08:04. > :08:06.Iraq 13 years ago was illegal. He said Tony Blair had not given the

:08:07. > :08:11.cabinet enough information to assess the issue and he now believed the

:08:12. > :08:18.aim of the invasion had been regime change. Andy Murray is hoping for a

:08:19. > :08:26.second Wimbledon title when he takes on me last run it this afternoon. It

:08:27. > :08:33.is his 11th grand slam final. -- Milos Raonic. Fen-2-mac is the first

:08:34. > :08:38.Canadian man to reach a final -- Milos Raonic. He is in form but can

:08:39. > :08:42.he do it? Four years ago we gathered here as he prepared to play his

:08:43. > :08:46.first Wimbledon final against Roger Federer. He lost it but he endeared

:08:47. > :08:50.himself to the public and one year later he returned and made amends,

:08:51. > :08:56.beating Novak Djokovic and becoming the first British man in 77 years to

:08:57. > :09:00.win the title. That took him to a new level. Three years later he's

:09:01. > :09:06.back again, trying to do it. Unlike on those occasions he comes into

:09:07. > :09:10.this one as favourite. Milos Raonic however, the first Canadian man in a

:09:11. > :09:15.grand slam singles final, does carry a threat. He's got a huge serve, he

:09:16. > :09:21.pushed Andy Murray all the way in the final of Queens and he beat

:09:22. > :09:25.Roger Federer in the semifinals. There has already been a British

:09:26. > :09:31.success with Gordon Reid winning the men's wheelchair as singles title,

:09:32. > :09:36.and he is one of four British players in the finals. But the main

:09:37. > :09:40.one is Andy Murray. As you can see from the hill behind me, it is

:09:41. > :09:47.packed and the atmosphere is building nicely. You can see more on

:09:48. > :09:58.the story on the BBC News Channel. Goodbye for now.

:09:59. > :10:06.So far this summer has been pretty cloudy and this weather pattern will

:10:07. > :10:10.continue for the next few days. Today has been no exception, cloud

:10:11. > :10:11.around, some patches of rain, if you've been outside already you've

:10:12. > :10:13.probably noticed
