:00:21. > :00:24.Jeremy Corbyn has been re-elected as Labour Leader,

:00:25. > :00:26.winning by a bigger margin than when he was first

:00:27. > :00:30.His victory over his challenger, Owen Smith, was announced

:00:31. > :00:34.at the start of the party's annual conference in Liverpool.

:00:35. > :00:39.Mr Corbyn secured almost 62% of the vote, with 38

:00:40. > :00:43.In his victory speech Mr Corbyn urged what he called "the Labour

:00:44. > :00:45.family" to unite and focus on defeating the Conservatives.

:00:46. > :00:53.Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg is in Liverpool.

:00:54. > :00:59.Her report contains some flash photography.

:01:00. > :01:04.I am delighted to declare Jeremy Corbyn elected as leader the Labour

:01:05. > :01:09.Party. He once seemed an accidental leader.

:01:10. > :01:17.But under him Labour has been redesigned.

:01:18. > :01:24.A firm victory. 2-0. Jeremy Corbyn is in charge again.

:01:25. > :01:29.I will do everything I can to repay the trust and the support, to bring

:01:30. > :01:34.our party together, we have much more in common than that which

:01:35. > :01:37.divides us, as far as I'm concerned, as far as I'm concerned let's wipe

:01:38. > :01:43.that slate clean from today and get on with the work we have to do as a

:01:44. > :01:49.party together. Wonderful result.

:01:50. > :01:54.The joy of his backers obvious. But despair from those who believe he

:01:55. > :02:00.can win this hall but not the world outside. He has done it again. Not

:02:01. > :02:03.just winning hands down, but with a bigger majority than last time. To

:02:04. > :02:09.his opponents who hoped it would weaken him it has done the opposite.

:02:10. > :02:13.Rewriting convention, the leader of a party divided in a way it has not

:02:14. > :02:16.been for decades. Wins another chance. How do you feel about it?

:02:17. > :02:23.You have gone through this together? Great. I wish we hadn't had it but

:02:24. > :02:30.now we are through it, it was done relatively amicably. It demonstrated

:02:31. > :02:34.how united we or on poll say. Where there is elements of validity with

:02:35. > :02:39.can work it out. The majority of MPs backed Owen Smith but Jeremy Corbyn

:02:40. > :02:43.has an overwhelming victory. Jeremy has won about 60% of the vote. That

:02:44. > :02:49.means a lot didn't vote for him so we have to unite and we have to

:02:50. > :02:53.focus on next year's elections. So how does the reanointed leader pool

:02:54. > :02:59.it all together? The party is united actually on the economic strategy,

:03:00. > :03:03.you flighted round education ideas, united round the National Health

:03:04. > :03:08.Service, united round the inequality that exists in Britain and now this

:03:09. > :03:11.election is over, and it is over, the whole party has an opportunity

:03:12. > :03:16.to come together. To put that message out. But the party is also

:03:17. > :03:22.bruised, battered, divided. I think you will see a sense of unity around

:03:23. > :03:25.the party. I have already had messages from on my phone already,

:03:26. > :03:28.text messages are coming in from lots of people who want to get

:03:29. > :03:32.onboard and get out there and do the campaigning and that is just what we

:03:33. > :03:36.are going to be doing. MPs pledging support? Lots of MPs. There are two

:03:37. > :03:40.things you could offer today that would make many of them feel that

:03:41. > :03:44.you really are serious about bringing them onboard. That would be

:03:45. > :03:49.a return to Shadow Cabinet elections and also ruling out deselections for

:03:50. > :03:53.sitting MPs. You will see a lot 06 changes in the next few weeks. Many

:03:54. > :03:56.MPs might hear you say that and worry what about some of the changes

:03:57. > :04:02.might be? They have no need to worry. It is all about democracy, we

:04:03. > :04:05.are democratically accountable to the party and constituencies. I am

:04:06. > :04:11.reaching out. Not the kind of exit he hoped for.

:04:12. > :04:15.Owen Smith who challenged Mr Corbyn avoided the crowds. Jeremy is

:04:16. > :04:20.congratulated for having changed the nature of the Labour Party. There is

:04:21. > :04:25.a significantly changed electorate in this party right now, and Jeremy

:04:26. > :04:29.is consistently won 60% of that support and he is to be

:04:30. > :04:34.congratulated on what is to be a decisive victory. Jeremy Corbyn

:04:35. > :04:39.transformed a small band of outsiders into the Labour majority.

:04:40. > :04:42.Not once, but convincingly twice. His job now, to show the whole party

:04:43. > :04:48.His job now, to show the whole party is on the way up.

:04:49. > :04:50.Jeremy Corbyn's re-election was greeted with huge

:04:51. > :04:51.celebration by his supporters gathered in Liverpool.

:04:52. > :04:54.The leader of the powerful Unite union, Len McClusky,

:04:55. > :04:56.said MPs must now fall in behind the Labour leader.

:04:57. > :04:58.Our deputy political editor, John Pienaar, reports

:04:59. > :05:04.on the challenges ahead for the party.

:05:05. > :05:11.There is loyal, there is very loyal, and then there is Momentum a group

:05:12. > :05:16.dedicated devoted to Jeremy Corbyn. Big win for Jeremy. How you

:05:17. > :05:20.feelingst Fantastic. She wonderful. Let's hope the party gets together

:05:21. > :05:25.unites and starts to fight all these austerity measures.

:05:26. > :05:31.They expected Jeremy Corbyn to win, just not this big. Very excited,

:05:32. > :05:34.today it is not just a great day for the Labour Party it is for the

:05:35. > :05:40.British politics. Here, they are buzzing about a

:05:41. > :05:46.result that means Jeremy Corbyn's leadership is unassailable. That was

:05:47. > :05:50.unimaginable. Somebody the Labour left could only dream about. Does

:05:51. > :05:54.that make him any like her to win over the country. Do you believe he

:05:55. > :05:59.can change the minds of Tory voters? If he works for it he can. It is up

:06:00. > :06:02.to the MPs to fall in Definitely. We have seen a huge mandate won by

:06:03. > :06:08.Jeremy. They need to respect that and come in line. Deselect the

:06:09. > :06:12.Blairites. Hard liners want disloyal MPs dropped as candidates. If you

:06:13. > :06:17.come from Liverpool the chance is you are football mad and Labour.

:06:18. > :06:22.That doesn't mean you are Nessly a Corbyn fan. Jeremy Corbyn, just been

:06:23. > :06:27.elected. Big win, what do row think of him, is he a winner? Jeremy

:06:28. > :06:32.Corbyn, he is a nice bloke, you know, he is a good man. But, I just

:06:33. > :06:35.think he won't be able to cut it on the world stage. My match day at

:06:36. > :06:39.Anfield you will see political players too. One of the biggest

:06:40. > :06:45.warns Labour MPs to show loyalty to the leader. I am hoping now that the

:06:46. > :06:51.PLP will recognise we have to unite. They have to give him a chance, him

:06:52. > :06:53.and John McDonald to take out the alternative strategy that ordinary

:06:54. > :07:02.decent working people are desperate for. An MP who is a co-bin critic

:07:03. > :07:06.message is try harder What he has do is not just have more rallies but

:07:07. > :07:10.listen to those who don't agree with him too, and work out what policies

:07:11. > :07:13.are that will persuade people to come onboard.

:07:14. > :07:18.In football and politics, this is deep red territory, and no-one is

:07:19. > :07:25.denying Jeremy Corbyn has a lot of convincing to to do. Today he has

:07:26. > :07:30.won the right to prove even wrong or else lead Labour to a his Tories

:07:31. > :07:33.defeat. For his allies so much persuading to do, so little time.

:07:34. > :07:35.For his allies so much persuading to do, so little time.

:07:36. > :07:38.Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg joins us from Liverpool.

:07:39. > :07:45.How difficult is it going to be to unite the party and move forward?

:07:46. > :07:51.Well, Kate, very difficult. I think there is no secret about that, you

:07:52. > :07:54.know, on paper, and for Labour's internal critics, this is a

:07:55. > :07:58.disaster, one insider said to me welcome to the death of the Labour

:07:59. > :08:02.Party. But for Jeremy Corbyn's team, for his supporterser for the legions

:08:03. > :08:07.of people who have signed up to be a member of this party, to back him,

:08:08. > :08:11.this is a complete vindication of their approach, it is a vindication

:08:12. > :08:14.of their belief that there are people out there who want something

:08:15. > :08:17.different. They want a different kind of lead e they have rejected

:08:18. > :08:22.how Labour has been over the last couple of decades and they believe

:08:23. > :08:27.that over time if MPs fall in behind them they do have a chance to pull

:08:28. > :08:30.the party together, that could be in theory, something that ultimately is

:08:31. > :08:34.an offer to the country that could see them win a general election. But

:08:35. > :08:38.the two sides are so far apart, and there is a simple reason why they

:08:39. > :08:43.matter, traditionally the voting public do not choose parties who are

:08:44. > :08:46.divided. The public doesn't like it, when people fight among themselves,

:08:47. > :08:50.for Jeremy Corbyn, it is going to take a lot to stop that with his

:08:51. > :08:51.internal opponents. Thank you.

:08:52. > :08:55.Government forces in Syria have carried out more air

:08:56. > :08:58.strikes on rebel-held areas of the city of Aleppo.

:08:59. > :09:00.The United Nations says nearly two million people are now

:09:01. > :09:02.without drinking water, after shelling prevented repairs

:09:03. > :09:09.Hospitals are reported to be overwhelmed and aid workers say

:09:10. > :09:11.the city's facing the worst humanitarian crisis in five years

:09:12. > :09:20.Police are investigating claims that hackers have stolen

:09:21. > :09:22.thousands of photos belonging to Pippa Middleton, the sister

:09:23. > :09:26.They are said to include pictures of Prince George and

:09:27. > :09:28.Our correspondent, Nick Higham, is here.

:09:29. > :09:35.This is reported by the Sun and the Daily Mail this morning, apparently

:09:36. > :09:40.anonymous seller has approached media organisations offerling some

:09:41. > :09:44.3,000 pictures from Pippa Middleton 's I cloud account and wants to sell

:09:45. > :09:49.them for 50,00 pounds. They include her being fitted for a wedding

:09:50. > :09:52.dress, pictures at party, of Kate, Prince William and their children.

:09:53. > :09:55.Unlikely I think that anyone this in country is going to buy them and

:09:56. > :09:59.publish them. An invasion of privacy, they are stolen property,

:10:00. > :10:04.there is no obvious public interest defence but they maybe offered for

:10:05. > :10:08.sale abroad. It is not the first time that celebrities accounts have

:10:09. > :10:15.been tampered with, there was a big hack two years ago, in which more

:10:16. > :10:19.than 500 accounts were compromised, among them Jennifer Lawrence The

:10:20. > :10:24.Hunger Games star, explicit pictures of her and the advice to celebrities

:10:25. > :10:27.and indeed to the rest of us is make your online security as powerful and

:10:28. > :10:30.strong as you can. Indeed. Thank you.

:10:31. > :10:34.There's more throughout the evening on the BBC News Channel,
