:05:58. > :06:00.has released a video of what it says are some of the schoolgirls abducted

:06:38. > :06:44.has accused his deputy, Tom Watson, of talking nonsense over claims

:06:45. > :06:47.that hard left activists Mr Watson says the evidence

:06:48. > :06:53.is beyond dispute. Our political correspondent,

:06:54. > :07:02.Ben Wright, joins me. It used to be top of the political

:07:03. > :07:07.parties people would have a quiet word if they have a row, but not

:07:08. > :07:13.here? It is not normal for leaders of political parties to say their

:07:14. > :07:19.deputies are talking nonsense. But there is nothing normal about the

:07:20. > :07:24.events around the Labour Party. He said some people from the hard left

:07:25. > :07:28.from factions and organisations banned from joining the party were

:07:29. > :07:33.infiltrating Labour and trying to influence the leadership election.

:07:34. > :07:36.He says there is evidence for this. Labour's numbers have swelled

:07:37. > :07:39.dramatically in the last few months, 500,000 members now. But in response

:07:40. > :07:43.to these complaints Jeremy Corbyn told the Observer that these claims

:07:44. > :07:47.are nonsense, he has seen no evidence of entryism, and thinks the

:07:48. > :07:52.Labour Party shouldn't be frightened of all these new members. It is

:07:53. > :07:57.extraordinary. The vast majority of Labour MPs are despairing of Jeremy

:07:58. > :08:02.Corbyn, but he still has a lot of strong support among members. Quite

:08:03. > :08:04.how strong that support is will be shown in the leadership contest next

:08:05. > :08:07.month. Ben, thank you. Torrential rain has caused

:08:08. > :08:08.widespread flooding in the southern US states

:08:09. > :08:10.of Louisiana and Mississippi. At least three people have been

:08:11. > :08:12.killed in Louisiana, where officials say floods have

:08:13. > :08:14.reached "epic proportions". Thousands have been rescued
