:00:14. > :00:22.Speaking after a reshuffle of her Cabinet, she brushed aside

:00:23. > :00:24.Dashed she dismissed claims she is a caretaker leader.

:00:25. > :00:27.I said during the election campaign that, if re-elected, I would intend

:00:28. > :00:31.But what I'm doing now is actually getting on with the immediate job.

:00:32. > :00:33.But the Conservative Chancellor she sacked, says she's

:00:34. > :00:38.Theresa May is a dead woman walking, it's just how long she is going to

:01:37. > :01:39.as Prime Minister and is "getting on with the job."

:01:40. > :01:43.She was speaking this evening after reshuffling her cabinet,

:01:44. > :01:45.and said what the public wanted to see was "government providing

:01:46. > :01:50.But she's faced more criticism today, with the former

:01:51. > :01:53.Chancellor George Osborne saying the election result left her too

:01:54. > :01:56.vulnerable, and that she was a "dead woman walking".

:01:57. > :01:59.And the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn says he's ready "any time"

:02:00. > :02:02.Here's our Political Correspondent Vicki Young.

:02:03. > :02:06.She's putting on a brave face, but Theresa May knows she has

:02:07. > :02:13.The shock of election night is still sinking in.

:02:14. > :02:15.After church this morning, the Prime Minister rang

:02:16. > :02:18.round colleagues who'd been defeated on Thursday.

:02:19. > :02:22.She's in office for now, but for how much longer?

:02:23. > :02:24.I said during the election campaign that, if re-elected,

:02:25. > :02:29.But what I am doing now is actually getting on with the immediate job

:02:30. > :02:32.and I think that's what's important, I think that's what the

:02:33. > :02:38.They want to see government providing that

:02:39. > :02:40.But senior Conservatives have demanded changes.

:02:41. > :02:42.It is going to require a different approach.

:02:43. > :02:45.We are going to see, I hope, more collective

:02:46. > :02:51.I and other senior colleagues have made that clear

:02:52. > :02:56.to her and I think you will also see that she will want to work

:02:57. > :02:58.much more closely with the parliamentary party.

:02:59. > :03:01.And this was the first sign that Mrs May has been

:03:02. > :03:05.Her old enemy, Michael Gove, who she sacked, returns

:03:06. > :03:07.to the Cabinet as Environment Secretary.

:03:08. > :03:10.And he'll be sitting alongside Boris Johnson.

:03:11. > :03:12.The two men spectacularly fell out over the Tory

:03:13. > :03:18.Today, the Foreign Secretary denied he was plotting another

:03:19. > :03:23.Just a little way from Michael Gove, best friends?

:03:24. > :03:26.Jeremy Corbyn did not win this election.

:03:27. > :03:32.It is absolutely right that she should go ahead,

:03:33. > :03:35.form a government and deliver on the priorities of the people.

:03:36. > :03:37.I am going to be backing her, absolutely everybody I'm

:03:38. > :03:40.talking to is going to be backing her, as well.

:03:41. > :03:42.He has obviously not spoken to this former colleague.

:03:43. > :03:46.It is just how long she will remain on death row.

:03:47. > :03:54.In other words, we could easily get to the middle of next week and it

:03:55. > :03:57.The Labour leader says Theresa May's position

:03:58. > :04:01.is vulnerable and he is ready for another general election.

:04:02. > :04:05.We cannot go on with a period of great instability.

:04:06. > :04:09.We have a programme, we have the support and we are ready

:04:10. > :04:12.to fight another election campaign as soon as may be,

:04:13. > :04:21.because we want to be able to serve the people of this country.

:04:22. > :04:27.Life without a majority in the Commons will be different with

:04:28. > :04:30.controversial policies like grammar schools, social care and pensions

:04:31. > :04:35.might bite the dust. There is no point in sailing

:04:36. > :04:38.ahead with items that were in the manifesto,

:04:39. > :04:40.which we will not get To get anything done,

:04:41. > :04:43.the Conservatives need They are trying to do a deal

:04:44. > :04:47.with Northern Ireland's ten Today, both sides suggested

:04:48. > :04:50.that the principles We had very good discussions

:04:51. > :04:57.yesterday with the Conservative Party in relation to how

:04:58. > :05:00.we could support them in forming a national government,

:05:01. > :05:02.one that would bring stability We have made good progress,

:05:03. > :05:10.but the discussions continue. After such a bad political

:05:11. > :05:13.miscalculation, most leaders would be forced out,

:05:14. > :05:18.but many Tory MPs do not have the appetite for a distracting

:05:19. > :05:20.leadership contest just as Brexit And they certainly don't want

:05:21. > :05:26.to risk a second general election. For now, Theresa May's colleagues

:05:27. > :05:28.are rallying behind her, but she is certainly not in charge

:05:29. > :05:31.of her own political destiny. Vicki Young, BBC News,

:05:32. > :05:34.Downing Street. Well, with negotiations on Brexit

:05:35. > :05:45.due to begin in days, where does all the current turmoil

:05:46. > :05:47.leave Our Political Correspondent

:05:48. > :05:49.Ben Wright has been There's some flash

:05:50. > :05:52.photography in his report. Almost a year ago, Britain

:05:53. > :05:54.voted to leave the EU, but last week's chaotic election

:05:55. > :05:58.result has reopened the argument over how, on what terms,

:05:59. > :06:01.on the priorities, the tactics - just days before divorce talks

:06:02. > :06:07.with the EU are due to start. Some Tory MPs are demanding

:06:08. > :06:11.Theresa May has a rethink. She's now got to make sure

:06:12. > :06:14.that she understands that the British people have

:06:15. > :06:16.rejected a hard Brexit. I don't think there's any change

:06:17. > :06:22.there, but we're not going to be leaving the EU in some irresponsible

:06:23. > :06:24.way that will damage our country, and of course

:06:25. > :06:26.the future generations. A manifesto to see us

:06:27. > :06:33.through Brexit and beyond. Theresa May had wanted a thumping

:06:34. > :06:36.mandate from voters for this, the Tories' manifesto,

:06:37. > :06:43.which set out their aims for Brexit. It promised to take Britain out

:06:44. > :06:46.of the single market and have control over EU migration

:06:47. > :06:55.to Britain, to strike new trade new trade deals with the EU

:06:56. > :06:57.and other countries. Theresa May said no Brexit deal

:06:58. > :07:00.was better than a bad one, Every Conservative Scottish,

:07:01. > :07:03.English and Welsh MP was elected on our manifesto,

:07:04. > :07:05.so obviously, we deliver the plans in that manifesto

:07:06. > :07:07.as best we can, including, Even though Theresa May didn't win

:07:08. > :07:12.the election outright, today ministers insisted

:07:13. > :07:16.the government's Brexit strategy hadn't changed,

:07:17. > :07:19.but the political reality has. Roughly half of Tory MPs

:07:20. > :07:22.in the House of Commons backed Remain in last year's referendum,

:07:23. > :07:26.and now, after this electoral humiliation, they may feel

:07:27. > :07:28.emboldened to try and water down But the Prime Minister is trapped,

:07:29. > :07:35.because the other half of her Parliamentary party,

:07:36. > :07:38.also livid about this election result, will be furious

:07:39. > :07:40.if there is any compromise. One pro-EU Tory

:07:41. > :07:45.grandee was scathing. Brexit is the cancer

:07:46. > :07:47.gnawing at the heart of the Conservative Party,

:07:48. > :07:50.and there's a lot of talk But it's not about changing

:07:51. > :07:57.just the leader, it's There is no appetite

:07:58. > :08:01.or mandate in Parliament Like the Tories, Labour has

:08:02. > :08:06.committed to leaving the EU. We are respecting the decision

:08:07. > :08:11.of the referendum. I think people will interpret

:08:12. > :08:16.membership of the single market Others in Labour say it's time

:08:17. > :08:21.to get the whole of Parliament Now there should be a sort of cross

:08:22. > :08:27.party commission or group set up to try and take forward those

:08:28. > :08:31.negotiations in a way that is open, thoughtful, consensual,

:08:32. > :08:33.that accept that not everybody is going to get the

:08:34. > :08:37.deal that they want. All this confusion comes two months

:08:38. > :08:39.after Britain formally handed So as talks with the DUP continue,

:08:40. > :08:57.what are voters making of all the uncertainty,

:08:58. > :08:59.when it comes to Brexit. Elaine Dunkley has been

:09:00. > :09:01.to Birmingham to find out, a city evenly split

:09:02. > :09:03.between remain and leave Birmingham - one of the most

:09:04. > :09:07.divided cities in the UK But can people here

:09:08. > :09:12.agree on the best course I want to know what's

:09:13. > :09:16.happening with jobs. I want to know what is

:09:17. > :09:20.going to happen with This area had the highest number

:09:21. > :09:27.of leave voters in last To be honest, since

:09:28. > :09:35.Brexit was introduced, And since all the confusion,

:09:36. > :09:40.people are holding back the money. Our main clients are not spending

:09:41. > :09:44.the money like they did. Imports and exports will be harder,

:09:45. > :09:47.unless we get the right deals. That is what May has

:09:48. > :09:49.got to fight for. To be honest, I don't

:09:50. > :09:51.really understand what I don't think many people really

:09:52. > :09:55.understand what happens. Next stop Moseley, where people

:09:56. > :09:59.overwhelmingly voted to remain With regards to the DUP,

:10:00. > :10:05.they are quite sensible in the sense that they will want hospitals,

:10:06. > :10:07.schools and roads in Northern Ireland, which

:10:08. > :10:10.they can get as a result of the arrangement

:10:11. > :10:11.with the Conservatives. So, on balance, it is

:10:12. > :10:15.actually a good result. Is Theresa May the right person

:10:16. > :10:18.to do the negotiation? I think that the fiasco pretty

:10:19. > :10:24.much since last June, in terms of how she has run

:10:25. > :10:27.the party, hasn't helped her. I think it makes her look small

:10:28. > :10:30.in front of the Europeans. In Brussels, the EU has

:10:31. > :10:37.its negotiation position Meanwhile here, the debate about how

:10:38. > :10:42.to keep Europe as a friend Our Ireland Correspondent,

:10:43. > :10:51.Chris Buckler is at Stormont, and our Deputy Political Editor Jon

:10:52. > :11:01.Pienaar is in Downing Street. The leader of the Democratic

:11:02. > :11:06.Unionists, Arlene Foster is in London to meet the Prime Minister on

:11:07. > :11:11.Tuesday. What does she want in return for support? There has been

:11:12. > :11:16.talk about the DUP stance on social issues such as gay marriage and

:11:17. > :11:21.abortion and concerns some Tory MPs might have about those. I have no

:11:22. > :11:25.doubt the DUP priority in negotiations is money not morality.

:11:26. > :11:31.Northern Ireland gets more per head in terms of funding than any other

:11:32. > :11:34.part of the UK but the economy and public services here need investment

:11:35. > :11:40.so expect them to ask the cash and they will want to say on Brexit

:11:41. > :11:43.negotiations, and assurances about the strengthening of different parts

:11:44. > :11:48.of the UK to bring the union together. What is happening in

:11:49. > :11:51.Westminster will have an impact on Stormont, when negotiations to get

:11:52. > :11:57.power-sharing back are due to begin tomorrow. It will be difficult if

:11:58. > :12:03.the DUP prop up the Conservatives, to see them as honest brokers, for

:12:04. > :12:07.Theresa May's government to be seen as facilitators of the talks which

:12:08. > :12:11.is why we had a statement from the Irish Prime Minister to say nothing

:12:12. > :12:14.should be done to jeopardise the Good Friday Agreement and in his

:12:15. > :12:20.words you can see concerned about the potential deal between the

:12:21. > :12:23.Tories and DUP. John, Theresa May has made it clear she will serve a

:12:24. > :12:32.full term as Prime Minister, just how safe is she? The timidity of the

:12:33. > :12:35.reshuffle was evidence of the Prime Minister's vulnerability, no

:12:36. > :12:38.significant movement and the promotion of the pro-European

:12:39. > :12:44.balanced by bringing in a Brexiteer, Michael Gove from the cold. Today

:12:45. > :12:50.for the first time I can remember, the Tory MPs' chairman, Graham

:12:51. > :12:53.Brady, a posh shop steward to the Tory backbenchers and the most

:12:54. > :12:59.discreetly powerful figure on the backbenches, warned her about that

:13:00. > :13:03.upsets MPs the coming year risks defeat and the most reliably on

:13:04. > :13:08.message minister Michael Fallon warned she better listen to

:13:09. > :13:13.ministers or risk a mutiny. She looks like a Prime Minister strapped

:13:14. > :13:18.into an ejector seat with 100 fingers hovering over the ejector

:13:19. > :13:23.button. You saw Boris Johnson, I do not think we should expect a

:13:24. > :13:28.challenge yet, but the loyalty, respect, everything to the party's

:13:29. > :13:30.deepest instincts of self-preservation. Tories do not

:13:31. > :13:35.think they could handle the challenge close to the start of

:13:36. > :13:40.Brexit talks and senior Tories fear the possibility of a second

:13:41. > :13:43.election. Her position looks painful, her party's looks

:13:44. > :13:47.uncomfortable and it cannot be ideal for a country that might have

:13:48. > :13:49.expected something more stable and stronger so close to the brink of

:13:50. > :13:53.Brexit. Thank you. Police have released new images

:13:54. > :13:57.of the Manchester Arena bomber, saying they now fully understand

:13:58. > :14:00.the movements of Salman Abedi almost hour by hour,

:14:01. > :14:02.in the week's leading up They believe he constructed

:14:03. > :14:06.the bomb alone and stored Today, detectives released the last

:14:07. > :14:10.people they were holding as our Home Affairs Correspondent

:14:11. > :14:17.Daniel Sandford reports. It was in this white Nissan Micra,

:14:18. > :14:21.bought just two days before he left for Libya,

:14:22. > :14:25.that police believe the Manchester bomber stored the parts

:14:26. > :14:27.to make his device, in plastic barrels police later

:14:28. > :14:30.found in the car. Salman Abedi flew out of the country

:14:31. > :14:34.on the 15th of April and arrived back in Manchester

:14:35. > :14:38.on the 18th of May. He was then caught on CCTV cameras

:14:39. > :14:43.with a blue suitcase going backwards and forwards to the flats

:14:44. > :14:45.in Rusholme where the Detectives believe he was collecting

:14:46. > :14:51.preprepared bomb parts from the car for him to assemble alone at this

:14:52. > :14:54.flat in central Manchester. In a statement, police investigating

:14:55. > :15:09.the bomber said: Detectives are still searching

:15:10. > :15:14.a landfill site in the hopes of finding the blue suitcase,

:15:15. > :15:16.which could contain Police investigating

:15:17. > :15:21.the Manchester attack originally 20 people were detained in the UK

:15:22. > :15:28.and a senior officer said some But today, the last of those

:15:29. > :15:33.arrested was released, leaving just Salman Abedi,

:15:34. > :15:37.who is dead, and his brother Hashem Abedi,

:15:38. > :15:41.who is being held in Libya. Detectives say they want to talk

:15:42. > :15:45.to Hashem Abedi, who left the country with his older brother

:15:46. > :15:47.on the 15th of April. He has been detained

:15:48. > :15:50.by the Libyan Ministry of interior's All roads in this investigation

:15:51. > :15:56.pointed towards Libya. Libya is not a country that

:15:57. > :15:58.really we can operate Investigations will be difficult

:15:59. > :16:06.for British police within Libya. Police say some of the men

:16:07. > :16:09.they arrested and released appear to have bought materials that can be

:16:10. > :16:12.used to make explosives. And some were in contact with with

:16:13. > :16:16.Abedi in the last few days. But detectives say, at this

:16:17. > :16:18.time, they are satisfied In Libya, the notorious son

:16:19. > :16:29.of the country's former leader, Colonel Gaddafi, is reported to have

:16:30. > :16:32.been released from prison. A militia group controlling the town

:16:33. > :16:34.of Zintan in the west of the country, says it's freed Saif

:16:35. > :16:38.al-Islam after six years in jail. He's still wanted for war crimes

:16:39. > :16:41.by the International Criminal Court. From Libya, our Middle East

:16:42. > :16:46.correspondent Orla Guerin reports. For years, the pampered

:16:47. > :16:52.public face of a hated regime. He was Colonel Gaddafi's heir,

:16:53. > :17:13.expected to inherit That was before he fell into rebel

:17:14. > :17:18.hands during the revolution of 2011. He was captured trying to flee, and

:17:19. > :17:24.later appeared minus some fingers, the result of an air strike, he

:17:25. > :17:25.said. He was sentenced to death by a court in Tripoli for war crimes

:17:34. > :17:36.in the Hague accused Tripoli's Martyrs Square,

:17:37. > :17:42.cradle of the revolution, was the picture of calm today,

:17:43. > :17:45.but in this fractured country, the release of Saif

:17:46. > :17:47.al-Islam could deepen Those who gathered here

:17:48. > :17:51.in the square six years ago, celebrating freedom,

:17:52. > :17:53.hoped they had seen Now they have to adjust

:17:54. > :17:59.to the fact that the dictator's Many will see this as a betrayal

:18:00. > :18:03.of the revolution, But the Gaddafi name

:18:04. > :18:12.still carries power here. So much so that none of those

:18:13. > :18:15.we spoke to around the square But most accepted that

:18:16. > :18:21.Saif had been freed. Not such a surprise, perhaps,

:18:22. > :18:24.when you consider Libya's descent into chaos since

:18:25. > :18:27.Col Gaddafi was toppled. This man told us, "better

:18:28. > :18:41.the devil you know." He said, he is not like his father,

:18:42. > :18:42.he is still young and can give a lot to the country and push for

:18:43. > :18:44.progress. In the past, Saif al-Islam commanded

:18:45. > :18:50.considerable support, and in parts of the country

:18:51. > :18:59.he still does. But his return could spark more

:19:00. > :19:03.instability in this battle scarred nation.

:19:11. > :19:12.Mr Macron could be on course to secure a big majority

:19:13. > :19:15.for his party which was only formed a year ago.

:19:16. > :19:17.Our Paris Correspondent, Lucy Williamson has the latest.

:19:18. > :19:21.Five weeks after snatching the presidency from more experienced

:19:22. > :19:25.hands, Emmanuel Macron is doing the same with the parliament.

:19:26. > :19:28.His party La Republique En Marche is on track for a landslide.

:19:29. > :19:33.Little more than a year after it was formed.

:19:34. > :19:36.The run-off vote next Sunday will decide the exact number of seats,
