:00:21. > :00:24.The Labour leadership contender, Owen Smith, has suggested that

:00:25. > :00:27.a second referendum on the UK's membership

:00:28. > :00:32.Formally launching his leadership campaign this afternoon,

:00:33. > :00:36.he joins Angela Eagle in the race to unseat Jeremy Corbyn.

:00:37. > :00:38.But critics warn his intervention could split the anti-Corbyn

:00:39. > :00:46.Our political correspondent Alan Soady has more.

:00:47. > :00:49.A party embroiled in a battle for its future, a leader

:00:50. > :00:51.fighting for survival, and now two candidates

:00:52. > :01:00.Launching his leadership bid, Owen Smith says Labour

:01:01. > :01:02.needs bolder messages, and one of his first on leaving

:01:03. > :01:10.I don't think we should accept that we are on a definite path out,

:01:11. > :01:13.I think we need to make sure that people are satisfied with that.

:01:14. > :01:16.We trusted people, rightly, to take the decision and we can

:01:17. > :01:18.trust them again in 18 months' time to check if it's

:01:19. > :01:22.His rival for the top job, Angela Eagle, is more worried

:01:23. > :01:25.about Brexit causing the break-up of the UK after Scotland voted

:01:26. > :01:32.Look, London voted to remain, and we are in a situation

:01:33. > :01:42.Liverpool and Merseyside voted to remain, so I think it's important

:01:43. > :01:48.We need to get the terms of leaving right, and we have got to have

:01:49. > :01:54.I heard Angela Eagle at the start of your programme saying,

:01:55. > :01:57."well, Scotland has just got to accept the UK-wide vote

:01:58. > :01:59.in the same way London or Liverpool accept it."

:02:00. > :02:01.Can I point out gently to Angela Eagle that there

:02:02. > :02:04.is a difference between Scotland and Liverpool and London.

:02:05. > :02:07.Scotland is not a region of the UK, Scotland is a nation.

:02:08. > :02:11.And she thinks Scotland could find a compromise,

:02:12. > :02:13.staying in a Brexit UK and in the EU.

:02:14. > :02:23.We're in uncharted territory, and when you are in unchartered

:02:24. > :02:26.territory there is effectively a blank sheet of paper in front

:02:27. > :02:27.of you, then you have an opportunity.

:02:28. > :02:30.It was Jeremy Corbyn's handling of the referendum which

:02:31. > :02:31.triggered the leadership challenge against him.

:02:32. > :02:34.Many of his enemies within Labour think he can only be

:02:35. > :02:39.defeated if there's a single anti-Corbyn candidate.

:02:40. > :02:44.My view is whoever is the person who commands the largest degree

:02:45. > :02:48.of support in the PLP is the unity candidate and that's

:02:49. > :02:53.the person who should go forward and take Jeremy on.

:02:54. > :02:56.I think we should have the person who is most likely

:02:57. > :02:58.to beat Jeremy Corbyn, and I think that's me.

:02:59. > :03:00.They will battle it out for the support of Labour MPs

:03:01. > :03:03.tomorrow, but can either of them topple Jeremy Corbyn?

:03:04. > :03:10.Nicola Sturgeon has also said she would consider holding a second

:03:11. > :03:13.referendum on independence as early as next year.

:03:14. > :03:16.Scotland's First Minister told the BBC that could happen if the UK

:03:17. > :03:18.Government started the formal process of leaving the EU

:03:19. > :03:23.without Scotland's position being safeguarded.

:03:24. > :03:25.Turkey's Justice Minister says some 6,000 people have been detained

:03:26. > :03:29.in a Government crackdown on those it says are responsible

:03:30. > :03:34.The authorities said more arrests could follow in a crisis that's

:03:35. > :03:39.Live now to Istanbul and our correspondent

:03:40. > :03:53.Bring us up to date with the latest on the security and political

:03:54. > :03:57.situation. Well, the past 36 hours have been chaotic. There is some

:03:58. > :04:02.calm now, but what we are seeing is the effect really of the coup.

:04:03. > :04:08.Government clamping down on anybody who might have been connected to the

:04:09. > :04:14.attempted take-over. So in addition to those more than 6,000 detentions,

:04:15. > :04:18.2,700 judges have been dismissed, and President Erdogan said today he

:04:19. > :04:22.is going to continue to clean up the virus in state institutions. What we

:04:23. > :04:28.are also seeing is a clearer picture of the nature of the clashes, not

:04:29. > :04:31.just soldiers firing on civilians but also quite aggressive crowds.

:04:32. > :04:38.You can probably see the pictures now of a young soldier being pulled

:04:39. > :04:42.out of a tank by riot police. He had been previously hit by rocks that

:04:43. > :04:48.had been thrown by a baying crowd. There was a lot of aggression and

:04:49. > :04:53.anger from the crowd. He was rescued by the riot police. Although that

:04:54. > :04:57.was yesterday's pictures, today it is relatively calm, the square

:04:58. > :05:00.behind me saw huge amounts of pro Government supporters come out on to

:05:01. > :05:04.the streets waving flags. The President has said people need to

:05:05. > :05:09.keep going, they can't go back home. They need to stay on the streets for

:05:10. > :05:13.the next week. Really we'll be expecting more protests coming to

:05:14. > :05:17.this square, to other parts of the city, Ankara too. On the coast it is

:05:18. > :05:25.much quieter, so for British tourists caught up in this, the

:05:26. > :05:29.Foreign Office advice is stay away from any protests. The disruption is

:05:30. > :05:34.slowly going down, certainly for tourists. Katie, thank you.

:05:35. > :05:36.Here, the remainder of the disused Didcot power station in Oxfordshire

:05:37. > :05:38.has been demolished, five months after half

:05:39. > :05:40.of the building collapsed, killing four workers.

:05:41. > :05:43.Remotely operated robots were used to attach

:05:44. > :05:45.explosives to the structure because it was unsafe

:05:46. > :05:53.Our correspondent, Duncan Kennedy, is there for us now.

:05:54. > :05:58.As you can see on this long shot the power station has now been

:05:59. > :06:01.completely demolished. It is lying in a bunch of rubble across the

:06:02. > :06:05.field away from us. We are told that already this morning the work to

:06:06. > :06:09.recover the bodies of those three men has begun. The relatives of

:06:10. > :06:13.those men watched the demolition from a private location. I managed

:06:14. > :06:18.to speak to one of those relatives afterwards. She said to me simply

:06:19. > :06:23.this is going to be an extremely difficult day.

:06:24. > :06:28.It took just a few seconds to bring a five-month tragedy to an end.

:06:29. > :06:31.A quarter of a tonne of explosives at the heart of this spectacular

:06:32. > :06:39.The half-demolished shell of this structure which had

:06:40. > :06:43.emtombed the three workers was finally fully levelled.

:06:44. > :06:49.For local people this was a moment not just of awe but of reflection.

:06:50. > :06:52.It's just sad all around really, but it's a relief that it's over

:06:53. > :06:56.and done with and people can start to move on and the recovery can

:06:57. > :07:06.Ever since February, the bodies of Christopher Huxtable,

:07:07. > :07:13.Ken Creswell and John Shaw have lain in the rubble of the laugh

:07:14. > :07:16.Ken Creswell and John Shaw have lain in the rubble of the half-

:07:17. > :07:20.The body of a fourth man, Michael Collings, was recovered

:07:21. > :07:24.They died when the building came down on them as it was being

:07:25. > :07:31.Ken Creswell and John Shaw have lain in the rubble of the half-

:07:32. > :07:34.The missing men's families staged protests to try to get their loved

:07:35. > :07:36.ones back sooner but were told it was too dangerous

:07:37. > :07:39.The families hadn't wanted explosives used to bring

:07:40. > :07:42.the reminder of the building down but these who've come to know them

:07:43. > :07:45.well say today's operation will be a turning point in getting

:07:46. > :07:49.The first step is to get them home with their families,

:07:50. > :07:51.for families to be able to take them home.

:07:52. > :07:53.The second step is to work out what happened.

:07:54. > :07:56.I think the third step is to see why it's taken so long

:07:57. > :08:01.The site is now safe for a number of investigations to begin to see

:08:02. > :08:05.The next few weeks will be a delicate, technical

:08:06. > :08:17.French police have arrested two more people over the lorry attack in Nice

:08:18. > :08:21.which killed 84 people and left 18 in a critical condition.

:08:22. > :08:25.So far 35 of those who died have been formally identified.

:08:26. > :08:37.Press this morning at Nice's Russian Orthodox Cathedral.

:08:38. > :08:42.On their minds, events that define evil.

:08:43. > :08:54.Some of the victims were from Russia.

:08:55. > :08:57.It is so sad, says this woman, who like so many

:08:58. > :08:59.others ran for her life on Thursday night.

:09:00. > :09:04.What is it like in Nice at the moment?

:09:05. > :09:11.It's really frozen, the atmosphere here. This morning the latest grim

:09:12. > :09:19.figures. 84 dead, 85 still in hospital. 18, including a child, are

:09:20. > :09:23.in a critical condition. One man deliberately ran them down with a

:09:24. > :09:30.lorry. Swerving for more than a mile, killing as many as he could.

:09:31. > :09:33.Those who knew Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel said he had

:09:34. > :09:36.psychological problems. There was news this morning of two more

:09:37. > :09:42.arrests, following a police raid yesterday. France is calling up

:09:43. > :09:46.12,000 police reservists. They'll help protect France's borders and

:09:47. > :09:53.police public places during big events. There's a real sense of

:09:54. > :09:57.bewilderment here in Nice about the motivation and tactics of the

:09:58. > :10:00.killer. The French Government is under pressure to protect that

:10:01. > :10:05.sacred value of freedom but also make French people feel safe again.

:10:06. > :10:12.There is fear and bewilderment in this city. But also defiance as life

:10:13. > :10:13.moves on. Tum Burridge, BBC News, Nice.

:10:14. > :10:15.The next news on BBC One is at 6.35 this

:10:16. > :10:33.Good afternoon. If you're enjoying at the end's weather, temperatures

:10:34. > :10:37.are around perfect, you're probably not going to enjoy the next couple

:10:38. > :10:44.of days, because we are ramping the heat and humidity up. Something of a

:10:45. > :10:46.mini heat wave on the way. Then as is often the case in
