:01:44. > :01:46.says the Grenfell in which 58 people are feared

:01:51. > :01:52.governments and the local authority. He says the tragedy
:01:53. > :01:54.was totally preventable. He was speaking as the leader
:01:55. > :01:56.of the local council in Kensington and Chelsea said
:01:57. > :01:58.he was doing everything he could to provide help to those
:01:59. > :02:01.affected by the tragedy. There's been heavy criticism
:02:02. > :02:03.of the local authority and central Government
:02:04. > :02:16.for their handling of the disaster. Father, we pray for those who are
:02:17. > :02:25.suffering loss, while we pray for those who are waiting with hope.
:02:26. > :02:34.Beneath a tower, people of all faiths are trying to heal. It
:02:35. > :02:41.continues to be a time of bewilderment, of anxiety, of anger.
:02:42. > :02:46.Some of the dead and missing are known in this congregation, and even
:02:47. > :02:53.in moments of peace, you can feel the rage will stop heaven knows what
:02:54. > :02:57.the next few weeks hold, as that death toll keeps rising. I am deadly
:02:58. > :03:01.serious, what is going to happen? Bianca, I've never seen anything
:03:02. > :03:15.like it. It is terrible, and they are mad about everything. At a
:03:16. > :03:19.nearby mosque, more donations for the displaced. Five days on, some
:03:20. > :03:24.feel they are still having to do what the authorities should be
:03:25. > :03:29.doing. Are you from the Home Office? No, I lit up the road. No one knows
:03:30. > :03:44.that they are here. They are sitting at empty desks. -- no, I live up the
:03:45. > :03:48.road. After criticism of the Council, a neighbourhood authority
:03:49. > :03:53.has taken over things here. These volunteers told me there is
:03:54. > :03:56.progress, but it is painfully slow. 24 hours ago, the Prime Minister
:03:57. > :04:01.said central Government will take control of this and get a grip of it
:04:02. > :04:09.- does it feel like there is a grip? No. Why not? Look around you,
:04:10. > :04:15.they're not here. Central Government are not here. For us to feel that
:04:16. > :04:19.there is a grip, central Government needs to make us feel it is on the
:04:20. > :04:23.side of the people. The extra foot patrols promised by Theresa May are
:04:24. > :04:27.now on the ground, brought in from other parts of London to bring
:04:28. > :04:31.reassurance and information. The leader of the local council says he
:04:32. > :04:34.understands the criticism his authority faced, but he has also
:04:35. > :04:39.defended their response. Yes, of course their resolve ways more we
:04:40. > :04:42.can do, and we are attempting to do that, but this was an enormous
:04:43. > :04:47.disaster. It has profound consequences. Gratitude this
:04:48. > :04:53.afternoon for the firefighters who were searching for the lost night
:04:54. > :05:00.and day. There is a growing sense here that all the emotion unleashed
:05:01. > :05:04.by the fire must lead to change. Angry, not simply at the poor
:05:05. > :05:09.response in the days afterwards from the council and the Government, but
:05:10. > :05:17.the years of neglect from the council and successive governments.
:05:18. > :05:21.While politicians talk about the legacy and lessons learned, for some
:05:22. > :05:24.here, it is far too lonely. On a day like this, they say, it is
:05:25. > :05:32.impossible to think about the future. It does feel here tonight
:05:33. > :05:35.that some of the fury that we saw in the first few days after this fire
:05:36. > :05:40.has dissipated somewhat. There does seem to be an acknowledgement that
:05:41. > :05:44.the official response is now getting on track, and a willingness to try
:05:45. > :05:48.and support it. In the last few minutes, we have had a statement
:05:49. > :05:51.from Downing Street, the Prime Minister giving no details of that
:05:52. > :05:57.?5 million fund to help those who lived in Grenfell Tower. There will
:05:58. > :06:02.be an immediate minimum cash payment of ?500 per household, and then at
:06:03. > :06:05.least ?5,000 will go into bank accounts or will be made available

:07:44. > :07:52.When the casualty bureau number came up, I
:07:53. > :07:56.actually rang it and it just went into a voice mail, and to hear that

:09:15. > :09:21.Here's our Political Correspondent Alex Forsyth.
:09:22. > :09:26.It was a key reason for calling the election. Every vote for the
:09:27. > :09:37.Conservatives will make me stronger when I negotiate for Britain with
:09:38. > :09:43.the Prime Minister 's -- the prime ministers, chancellors and
:09:44. > :09:49.presidents in the EU. Instead, by losing her majority, negotiations
:09:50. > :09:53.look tougher. On Brexit, the Prime Minister faces pressure from all
:09:54. > :09:58.sides. Many think the Chancellor, who backed Remain, is one of those
:09:59. > :10:02.pushing for a moderate approach. He upped the stakes debate on the need
:10:03. > :10:07.to get a good deal with the EU. No deal would be a very bad outcome for
:10:08. > :10:11.Britain, but there is a possible worse outcome, and that is a deal
:10:12. > :10:16.that is deliberately structured to punish us, to suck the lifeblood out
:10:17. > :10:20.of our economy. He said UK would leave this single market and Customs
:10:21. > :10:24.union but there could not a cliff edge and there would have to be
:10:25. > :10:29.transitional arrangements to keep trade flowing. The economy must come
:10:30. > :10:33.first. He even attacked the Tory election campaign for not making
:10:34. > :10:37.more of it. We did not talk about the economy as much as we should
:10:38. > :10:44.have done. Whatever the reason, this is the result. Anger from some.
:10:45. > :10:49.Lacking enough MPs on their own, the Tories have turned to Northern
:10:50. > :10:54.Ireland's DUP. Their views on Brexit will now also have to be considered.
:10:55. > :10:59.Theresa May is facing tough battles here. There is a raft of laws that
:11:00. > :11:02.need to be passed. The Parliamentary session has been extended to two
:11:03. > :11:06.years, giving the Government more time, but that won't make it much
:11:07. > :11:10.easier. The Tories are divided about what Brexit should mean, and that is
:11:11. > :11:14.without the views of political opponents. Labour could flex its
:11:15. > :11:19.muscles, suggesting today the UK could stay in the customs union
:11:20. > :11:25.which allows tariff free trade within the EU. It should be left on
:11:26. > :11:31.the table. So we could stay inside the customs union? Yes, there was
:11:32. > :11:33.also the notion of no deal being a viable deal, which Theresa May and
:11:34. > :11:38.the Government have repeatedly said. No deal is what happens if you get
:11:39. > :11:43.to the end of two years and have not reached an agreement. You are pushed
:11:44. > :11:46.over a cliff. Extracting the UK from the EU want be easy and there is
:11:47. > :11:50.still no real clarity from anyone about what Brexit should or will
:11:51. > :11:55.look like, but it is clear that here as well as in Brussels the Prime
:11:56. > :11:57.Minister is facing a tough fight. Alex Forsyth, BBC News, Westminster.
:11:58. > :12:00.Well, some of the key issues in those Brexit talks in the coming
:12:01. > :12:03.days will include the rights of EU citizens, that's foreign nationals,
:12:04. > :12:07.living here, and Britons living abroad.
:12:08. > :12:09.There's the size of the divorce bill, what it will it
:12:10. > :12:13.And then there's the timetable - can the highly complex negotiations
:12:14. > :12:19.Damian Grammaticas is in Brussels for us.
:12:20. > :12:29.Damian, what are we expecting tomorrow? 11am Brussels time, on the
:12:30. > :12:34.seventh floor here, those talks will get underway. One of the early
:12:35. > :12:40.issues will be how to proceed. David Davis wanted trade talks from the
:12:41. > :12:45.outset, and he has predicted a row over the summer over that, because
:12:46. > :12:49.the EU said it wants first exit issues dealt with, then a future
:12:50. > :12:54.relationship could be talked about. After initial contact between the
:12:55. > :12:58.two sides, we have heard the EU believes its preferred sequence will
:12:59. > :13:03.be followed. That is significant because it means David Davis will
:13:04. > :13:08.have to satisfy the EU on issues you mentioned - citizens' rights, how
:13:09. > :13:14.they will calculate a final financial settlement before the EU
:13:15. > :13:18.will move on to discussing future relations. These are all tricky
:13:19. > :13:20.things, and on any one of them, the talks could falter. Damien, thank
:13:21. > :13:26.you. A murder investigation has

:14:15. > :14:18.ablaze. This mountainous area is no stranger to forest fires, but these
:14:19. > :14:21.are some of the deadliest ever. The speed and ferocity of the flames
:14:22. > :14:32.catching people in their cars and homes. A woman's screams for her
:14:33. > :14:34.house. As the fire rages on several fronts, entire villages have been
:14:35. > :14:41.evacuated. Officials are still not sure what remains. TRANSLATION: We
:14:42. > :14:44.were inside the house, the fire was around us. The firefighters came to
:14:45. > :14:49.get us out because we could hardly breathe any more. As to whether the
:14:50. > :14:56.house burned or not, it must have, for sure. Almost instantly, we saw
:14:57. > :14:59.the fire on the car, and within 15 seconds at the most, the wind that
:15:00. > :15:04.the fire created lacked across to the other side, and within 30
:15:05. > :15:08.seconds, it was to the right, to the left, to the back of the car and you
:15:09. > :15:14.had no option but to keep driving into the fire. At times, the
:15:15. > :15:16.response has seemed chaotic, hundreds of firefighters working
:15:17. > :15:20.furiously since yesterday. Some people say they have been left to
:15:21. > :15:27.fend for themselves while their homes burn. Thick low-lying clouds
:15:28. > :15:31.of smoke make it hard for firefighting aircraft to work
:15:32. > :15:37.effectively. France and Spain have sent their aircraft to help. As the
:15:38. > :15:41.death toll mounts, the goverment has declared three days of national
