:00:08. > :00:11.Downing Street has secured in principle an agreement

:00:12. > :00:14.with the Democratic Unionist Party, giving the Conservatives a working

:00:15. > :00:20.The deal would be on a "confidence and supply basis," allowing

:00:21. > :00:24.Theresa May to pass crucial votes when the Commons resits next week.

:00:25. > :00:29.Meanwhile the Prime Minister's two most senior advisors,

:00:30. > :00:31.Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill, have resigned in the wake

:00:32. > :00:35.There were plenty of voices in the Conservative Party that

:00:36. > :00:37.reminded her that you can't run the Government like

:00:38. > :00:43.The London Bridge killers who used a van in their terror attack had

:00:44. > :00:45.wanted a seven and a half tonne lorry instead.

:00:46. > :00:48.And Scotland push England all the way, as they draw

:00:49. > :01:10.in their World Cup qualifier at Hampden Park.

:01:11. > :01:15.Downing Street says it's secured the principles

:01:16. > :01:18.of an outline agreement, with Northern Ireland's

:01:19. > :01:28.Democratic Unionist Party, giving the Conservatives a working

:01:29. > :01:34.The deal would be on a so-called "confidence

:01:35. > :01:37.and supply basis," allowing Theresa May to pass crucial votes

:01:38. > :01:41.The Cabinet will discuss the deal on Monday.

:01:42. > :01:46.Today Theresa May's two closest advisors, Nick Timothy

:01:47. > :01:48.and Fiona Hill, resigned, following the Conservatives'

:01:49. > :01:50.failure to win a majority in Parliament in the election.

:01:51. > :01:53.Here's our Political Correspondent Alex Forsyth.

:01:54. > :01:59.Past friends and now even closer political allies. Theresa May has

:02:00. > :02:04.turned to the Democratic Unionist party to help former government. She

:02:05. > :02:09.signalled her intention yesterday, in this address. We will continue to

:02:10. > :02:13.work with our friends and allies in the Democratic Unionist Party in

:02:14. > :02:16.particular. Our two parties have enjoyed a strong relationship over

:02:17. > :02:23.many years, and this gives me the confidence to believe that we will

:02:24. > :02:28.be able to work together, in the interests of the whole United

:02:29. > :02:32.Kingdom. With its ten seats won on Thursday, the DUP will back Theresa

:02:33. > :02:40.May on key votes, like the budget. It is not a full coalition but a

:02:41. > :02:44.loose agreement, the details scant so far. Now they are politically

:02:45. > :02:49.centrestage, prompting renewed scrutiny of their policies by some

:02:50. > :02:53.here in Westminster. Pro Brexit, socially conservative, the party's

:02:54. > :02:57.opposition to same-sex marriage and abortion in Northern Ireland has

:02:58. > :03:02.caused concern among some Tory MPs here but not at all -- not all. I

:03:03. > :03:06.don't think we will go back on that legislation. I think it is part of

:03:07. > :03:10.our DNA now and part of what makes us the great country we are and I am

:03:11. > :03:14.sure that DUP understands that. Theresa May is relying on support

:03:15. > :03:18.from the DUP in order to govern here. Because she doesn't have an

:03:19. > :03:21.overall majority she will have to balance competing demands on almost

:03:22. > :03:26.every front, taking into account not just the position of the DUP on some

:03:27. > :03:32.issues, but that of her own MPs as well. And today to mark her closest

:03:33. > :03:36.advisers quit, leaving her to navigate tricky waters without their

:03:37. > :03:40.support. Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill were accused of having too much

:03:41. > :03:44.control over policy and tactics, blamed for the election campaign

:03:45. > :03:49.that cost the Prime Minister for a majority, and today as the

:03:50. > :03:55.consequences of that sum ten, reflection and recrimination. Some

:03:56. > :03:58.Tory MPs saying Theresa May had to heed calls for change. There have

:03:59. > :04:02.been plenty of calls to make sure the circle around her was wider and

:04:03. > :04:08.more inclusive, to prevent anyone believing that the two principal

:04:09. > :04:13.advisers had undue influence. The Prime Minister's under pressure from

:04:14. > :04:16.all sides, and with no majority her plans for things like grammar

:04:17. > :04:24.schools and social care will be hard to get through Parliament. And the

:04:25. > :04:30.Queen's speech, her programme for Government, is only just over a week

:04:31. > :04:33.away. I cannot see how a Queen's speech will be laden with

:04:34. > :04:36.interesting legislation because it is something that will cause dispute

:04:37. > :04:40.within the Conservative Party and certainly between the Conservative

:04:41. > :04:45.Party and the DUP. The Prime Minister may be back in Number ten,

:04:46. > :04:49.but not how she had hoped. With two of her key aides gone and dependent

:04:50. > :05:05.on the support of the DUP, her job of governing is no harder than ever.

:05:06. > :05:08.So what might the Democratic Unionist Party demand

:05:09. > :05:10.in return for their loyalty, and how will any deal affect

:05:11. > :05:15.Political views here are firmly held and slow to change.

:05:16. > :05:17.On Saturday mornings for the last five years,

:05:18. > :05:19.Unionist protesters have gathered at Belfast City Hall.

:05:20. > :05:22.They are opposing a council policy to reduce the numbers of days

:05:23. > :05:24.on which it flies the Union flag, a decision they feel

:05:25. > :05:27.They welcome the DUP's new influence.

:05:28. > :05:29.From a Loyalist point of view I think Northern

:05:30. > :05:32.Ireland is in the best position we've ever been in.

:05:33. > :05:34.We couldn't wish for anything better than a hung parliament.

:05:35. > :05:38.First off, they should be asking to stop the witchhunt

:05:39. > :05:41.Just across the street, what do people think the DUP

:05:42. > :05:46.I think the national health and the hospital is one

:05:47. > :05:52.Mostly, schools and welfare and stuff, I'm pleased they are going

:05:53. > :05:53.into government with them to be honest.

:05:54. > :05:55.A functioning executive and government for Northern Ireland,

:05:56. > :06:04.Money's great, but it doesn't answer all the questions - no.

:06:05. > :06:05.We will organise massive demonstrations.

:06:06. > :06:08.The DUP is a party with religious roots and that continues to

:06:09. > :06:30.CHANTING: Stormont, Stormont, hear us clear!

:06:31. > :06:32.It opposes extending gay marriage and abortion rights

:06:33. > :06:35.Fundamentally, the DUP didn't expect to be in this position.

:06:36. > :06:38.But issues like these are unlikely to feature in the ongoing

:06:39. > :06:41.The DUP's demands here are going to be overwhelmingly financial.

:06:42. > :06:44.They have a very clear road map which they set out

:06:45. > :06:46.two years ago in 2015, when they thought they would

:06:47. > :06:49.There's very little in that about social policy.

:06:50. > :06:51.But this new relationship raises wider questions

:06:52. > :06:58.On Monday cross-party talks are due to get under way aimed at restoring

:06:59. > :06:59.Northern Ireland's collapsed government, but how

:07:00. > :07:01.can the Conservative Secretary of State act as an honest

:07:02. > :07:04.broker at those talks, when the Conservatives are now

:07:05. > :07:07.This deal has come more quickly than many expected,

:07:08. > :07:10.but tonight the DUP are revealing nothing about what they want

:07:11. > :07:14.But on Brexit, the DUP does not appear to share Theresa May's view

:07:15. > :07:16.that walking away with no deal is a viable option.

:07:17. > :07:20.The party's financial demands are likely to include more money

:07:21. > :07:22.for infrastructure, and it will not support further austerity measures

:07:23. > :07:28.like the means testing of winter fuel allowance.

:07:29. > :07:35.John, when do we expect to hear more on what the DUP would want in return

:07:36. > :07:39.for their loyalty to the Theresa May government? We are expecting a major

:07:40. > :07:43.DUP delegation to come to Westminster early next week,

:07:44. > :07:48.probably on Tuesday. So we may learn a little more then. Of course it is

:07:49. > :07:51.in the Conservatives' interest to have this nail down as soon as

:07:52. > :07:55.possible before the break that negotiations begin. Also tonight we

:07:56. > :07:58.have had an statement from Sinn Fein, the largest nationalist party

:07:59. > :08:03.in Northern Ireland, criticising this deal. They said that in the

:08:04. > :08:06.past when Unionists have tried to prop up Tory governments it has not

:08:07. > :08:09.worked, they say this is a transitory arrangement and one which

:08:10. > :08:13.will end in tears. Interestingly, they see it is now time for the

:08:14. > :08:21.Irish government to speak up, and that it is time for the Irish

:08:22. > :08:24.government to speak up, and that it is time for the Irish government and

:08:25. > :08:26.no speak for the rights of all citizens in Northern Ireland. Thank

:08:27. > :08:26.you for that, John Campbell from Belfast.

:08:27. > :08:28.And Alex Forsyth is at Westminster now.

:08:29. > :08:33.Good news for Theresa May in a DUP deal, but losing her trusted

:08:34. > :08:36.advisers. Where does that leave? Didn't want to become a facing

:08:37. > :08:40.pressure from all sides know. We do not know the details of the deal

:08:41. > :08:42.with the DUP but she will have to get some concessions in return for

:08:43. > :08:46.their support and she's facing pressure from within her own party

:08:47. > :08:51.as well. We know the Conservative Party members have different on

:08:52. > :08:54.domestic policy like social care and grammar schools, things Theresa May

:08:55. > :08:57.wanted to do, but crucially on Brexit where they are deeply divided

:08:58. > :09:00.about the direction the Government should take. Theresa May needs all

:09:01. > :09:04.of them to back her now to get anything done and we have seen today

:09:05. > :09:09.they are prepared to put pressure on her, but demanding those two key

:09:10. > :09:12.trusted advisers departed, leaving Theresa May no doubt feeling

:09:13. > :09:16.isolated tonight. She has reappointed a new chief of staff and

:09:17. > :09:21.is trying to make this is business as usual, but it is far from it. The

:09:22. > :09:26.election, the result, has left Theresa May's authority seriously

:09:27. > :09:28.weakened. Alex, thank you for that. Alex Forsyth at Westminster.

:09:29. > :09:30.It's been revealed that the ringleader of the London terror

:09:31. > :09:33.attack had tried to hire a seven and a half tonne lorry,

:09:34. > :09:35.instead of a van, to run down members of the public.

:09:36. > :09:38.Police say the number of injured would have been much higher.

:09:39. > :09:41.Eight people died in the knife and van attack a week ago.

:09:42. > :09:47.Here's our home affairs correspondent, Daniel Sandford.

:09:48. > :09:49.On the edges of Borough Market, they were repairing the damage

:09:50. > :09:52.today, replacing the doors that had been shot off by armed police

:09:53. > :09:58.in the desperate hunt to find the killers.

:09:59. > :10:00.The police are gone, but the market itself where five

:10:01. > :10:03.victims were stabbed to death remains sealed off for now.

:10:04. > :10:11.We have stories of people who came out armed with chairs, other items,

:10:12. > :10:17.were throwing bottles and anything they could get their hands on,

:10:18. > :10:22.with a view to trying to prevent the attackers either coming

:10:23. > :10:25.into pubs and bars, but more importantly to scare them off

:10:26. > :10:28.The weapons the attackers used were 12-inch pink ceramic knives

:10:29. > :10:31.of the Ernesto brand, possibly bought at Lidl.

:10:32. > :10:34.They were found tied onto the men's hands with leather straps

:10:35. > :10:38.Minutes earlier, they had killed three other people on London Bridge

:10:39. > :10:43.In the van police found 13 petrol bombs made with lighter fluid

:10:44. > :10:47.and cloth cut from tracksuit bottoms and two blowtorches.

:10:48. > :10:49.Detectives believe that behind this green door in East Ham

:10:50. > :10:58.In a top floor bedsit rented by Rachid Redouane two months ago,

:10:59. > :11:01.detectives discovered items that had been used to make their petrol bombs

:11:02. > :11:05.And an English-language copy of the Koran left open at a page

:11:06. > :11:15.The ringleader of the gang, Khuram Butt, had actually tried

:11:16. > :11:18.to hire a 7.5 tonne truck that morning which would have

:11:19. > :11:20.made the attack worse, but fortunately his payment

:11:21. > :11:25.He was also being investigated by counterterrorism detectives

:11:26. > :11:28.for fraud and was still on police bail, although the case

:11:29. > :11:38.At the present time I do not regard what I have seen

:11:39. > :11:44.But everybody would expect us to look at what has happened

:11:45. > :11:52.and to ensure that both we learn whatever we can from what has

:11:53. > :11:54.happened, and secondly we continue to improve and improve and improve,

:11:55. > :11:58.and that is what we have always done in this country in the face

:11:59. > :12:01.The men killed three of their victims as they drove

:12:02. > :12:04.across London Bridge and stabbed five more to death

:12:05. > :12:08.It was the third attack in Britain in ten and a half weeks.

:12:09. > :12:15.People in London have been urged today to visit the capital's

:12:16. > :12:18.bars and restaurants, in a show of "unity and resilience"

:12:19. > :12:21.The British Red Cross launched the appeal,

:12:22. > :12:29.calling for people to come together, as Sarah Campbell reports.

:12:30. > :12:31.A warm June evening, a few minutes' walk

:12:32. > :12:33.from London Bridge and Borough Market.

:12:34. > :12:35.This area is packed with bars and restaurants.

:12:36. > :12:38.That's what made it a target last Saturday.

:12:39. > :12:41.One week on, people are back, in defiance of those

:12:42. > :12:45.Obviously, you still reflect upon it and think about those people

:12:46. > :12:47.that that happened to, but it doesn't stop me

:12:48. > :12:52.You can't not think about what happened and, you know,

:12:53. > :12:56.I was wondering about what the mood would be like it, but it's really

:12:57. > :13:06.That's what we do - that's what London is all about.

:13:07. > :13:08.Across the capital there is a concerted effort this evening

:13:09. > :13:10.to collect money for victims of terror attacks

:13:11. > :13:16.The UK Solidarity Fund was set up in the wake of the Manchester

:13:17. > :13:18.and Westminster attacks, by the British Red Cross,

:13:19. > :13:20.so in pubs like this this evening they're encouraging people to donate

:13:21. > :13:23.money, restaurants are donating the price of certain meals,

:13:24. > :13:25.and there are collections being held in tube stations and theatres.

:13:26. > :13:29.And alongside the donations, a sense of solidarity.

:13:30. > :13:33.I think it's absolutely right that on the anniversary

:13:34. > :13:36.of what happened last weekend, the tragic events that

:13:37. > :13:38.happened last weekend, that Londoners can just go out

:13:39. > :13:47.A walk across the centre of London this evening,

:13:48. > :13:49.involving representatives from different faiths.

:13:50. > :13:53.A show of unity to remember those who were killed.

:13:54. > :14:07.The luxury ocean liner Queen Mary 2 has taken part in a rescue operation

:14:08. > :14:10.to rescue competitors in a yacht race, hit by a massive

:14:11. > :14:13.The lone sailor Mervyn Wheatley on board his yacht Tamarind

:14:14. > :14:16.had to issue a mayday, one of several vessels damaged

:14:17. > :14:20.The competitors set off from Plymouth at the end of May.

:14:21. > :14:22.The TV presenter Richard Hammond has escaped serious injury

:14:23. > :14:26.after being involved in a car crash in Switzerland.

:14:27. > :14:29.The electric car he was driving came off the road during practice

:14:30. > :14:31.for an organised race and then burst into flames.

:14:32. > :14:41.The 47-year-old suffered a fractured knee and was flown to hospital.

:14:42. > :14:43.Now, with all the sport, here's Karthi Gnanasegaram

:14:44. > :14:57."Phenomenal" and "crazy" were two of the words used

:14:58. > :15:00.by Scotland and England's teams to describe their qualifying game

:15:01. > :15:03.It ended in a 2-2 draw, but the drama was provided

:15:04. > :15:06.by the three goals scored in the final six minutes.

:15:07. > :15:17.Rivalry dating back to 1872. Each encounter laced with anticipation.

:15:18. > :15:18.Security was increased following recent terror attacks,

:15:19. > :15:23.and before kick-off the minute's silence, in memory of the victims.

:15:24. > :15:29.This was a match Scotland had to win, something they'd not done

:15:30. > :15:32.at home to England in 32 years, and which looked unlikely as

:15:33. > :15:36.That pressure told after half-time, when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain came

:15:37. > :15:40.off the bench to make an immediate impact, with a goal Craig Gordon

:15:41. > :15:44.Scotland were bruised but not beaten, and when Leigh Griffiths

:15:45. > :15:47.equalised in the closing stages they were invigorated.

:15:48. > :15:51.The drama, though, was far from over.

:15:52. > :15:54.Three minutes later, unbelievably, and in almost identical fashion,

:15:55. > :15:57.Griffiths did it again, to send his team and their

:15:58. > :16:06.But with three priceless points almost within their grasp,

:16:07. > :16:09.the celebrations came to an abrupt end as Harry Kane, England's captain

:16:10. > :16:20.And Scottish joy turned into despair. So England strike late to

:16:21. > :16:24.break Scottish hearts and deny them what would have been an incredible

:16:25. > :16:27.victory, another blow to their hopes for qualifying for next summer's

:16:28. > :16:28.World Cup, a tournament England remain firmly on course to reach.

:16:29. > :16:31.David Ornstein, BBC News, Hampden Park.

:16:32. > :16:35.There was also a late goal as Northern Ireland beat Azerbaijan

:16:36. > :16:37.in their qualifier for the World Cup.

:16:38. > :16:38.Stuart Dallas' injury-time winner boosts Northern Ireland's

:16:39. > :16:42.chances of reaching the tournament in Russia.

:16:43. > :16:47.Scotland and England's rugby union sides both won their international

:16:48. > :16:51.matches against Italy and Argentina respectively, while the British

:16:52. > :16:55.and Irish Lions beat the Crusaders in the latest match of their tour

:16:56. > :16:58.Owen Farrell scored all of the Lions' points.

:16:59. > :17:02.England's cricketers have beaten Australia in their final ICC

:17:03. > :17:11.A brilliant century from an unbeaten Ben Stokes saw England win by 40

:17:12. > :17:13.runs when chasing an adjusted target due to several rain delays.

:17:14. > :17:19.England had already qualified for the semi-finals.

:17:20. > :17:23.It was a day of firsts at the French Open.

:17:24. > :17:26.Jelena Ostapenko, who had previously never won a match at Roland Garros,

:17:27. > :17:38.Ostapenko, who has only just turned 20 years old,

:17:39. > :17:41.became the first unseeded woman since 1933 to win the title in Paris

:17:42. > :17:44.and she did it by coming back from a set down against the third

:17:45. > :17:47.And there was a first Grand Slam title for

:17:48. > :17:49.Great Britain's Alfie Hewett in the wheelchair singles.

:17:50. > :17:52.Hewett beat the defending champion, Gustavo Fernandez, in three sets.

:17:53. > :18:05.Thank you for that. That's all for me and the rest of the team. Have a

:18:06. > :18:16.very good night. Good evening. Well, you were bathed

:18:17. > :18:19.in sunshine and warmth today. A little bit cloudier and cooler

:18:20. > :18:20.tomorrow but with Ben Raine it should be
