:00:24. > :00:26.There'll be a trade deal and it'll be
:00:27. > :00:31.Donald Trump's words to Theresa May this morning as the US president met
:00:32. > :00:34.the Prime Minister at the G20 conference in Hamburg.
:00:35. > :00:37.Mr Trump stressed the special relationship he's developed
:00:38. > :00:41.with Mrs May and said the deal would be done quickly.
:00:42. > :00:44.Mr Trump also suggested he would be visiting Britain despite previous
:00:45. > :00:45.reports than he wanted the visit put off.
:00:46. > :00:56.Our Deputy Political editor John Pienaar reports.
:00:57. > :01:01.Theresa May was counting on warm words. Promises of good will. And
:01:02. > :01:06.today the president had plenty of both. She sees the US relationship
:01:07. > :01:12.is key to successful Brexit. He is keen to show that he's open to free
:01:13. > :01:15.trade with a major ally. When it came to encouraging language the
:01:16. > :01:17.president clearly was feeling generous. I would like to thank
:01:18. > :01:24.Prime Minister made for being with us. We had tremendous talks, there
:01:25. > :01:31.is no country that could be closer than our two countries. And I want
:01:32. > :01:34.to say thank you very much. We are working for a trade deal which will
:01:35. > :01:41.be a very big deal for both countries. And I think we will have
:01:42. > :01:44.that done very quickly. It was not all so friendly, Theresa May also
:01:45. > :01:49.urged him to drop opposition to the climate change treaty. But trade is
:01:50. > :01:54.the priority and he was still planning a visit. Though not
:01:55. > :01:59.everyone will be as happy as Theresa May to see him. Until then worth
:02:00. > :02:03.cultivating the US friendship with the president, his family and
:02:04. > :02:08.advisers. His daughter Ivanka Trump is both. Meeting the Japanese leader
:02:09. > :02:12.was also important, Shinzo Abe has done a trade deal with the EU and
:02:13. > :02:17.the UK would like one just as favourable. Warm words about trade
:02:18. > :02:22.and cooperation can be comforting, even political useful at a summit
:02:23. > :02:26.like this but striking deals with America, India, anyone, will take
:02:27. > :02:30.hard bargaining and plenty of British businessmen, government
:02:31. > :02:34.officials and even the own chance of Theresa May will need to be
:02:35. > :02:39.convinced that agreements around the world could even compensate for a
:02:40. > :02:41.tough, even a harsh deal with the EU. The Prime Minister insists it
:02:42. > :02:47.can be done. They have been ugly scenes in the streets outside.
:02:48. > :02:51.Violent protests against the wealth and power gathered here. A harsh
:02:52. > :02:53.contrast with a comparatively calm summit. Even one that was not quite
:02:54. > :02:56.as friendly as it seemed. Let's speak to our Diplomatic
:02:57. > :03:07.Correspondent James Robbins. What is your reading of Donald
:03:08. > :03:12.Trump's commitment to this trade deal with the UK? Let's remind
:03:13. > :03:17.ourselves that President Trump described Brexit as a beautiful
:03:18. > :03:21.thing. He said it was an inspiration to his own campaign to be elected as
:03:22. > :03:25.president of the US. So perhaps no surprise that he was so willing to
:03:26. > :03:31.meet the needs of Downing Street for a positive, positive restatements to
:03:32. > :03:38.now Prime Minister in Theresa May that America is intending to press
:03:39. > :03:41.ahead with a UK trade deal to take the place of the multilateral
:03:42. > :03:45.agreements existing within the EU framework. That is as soon as
:03:46. > :03:50.Britain leaves the EU. But of course this is a statement and getting that
:03:51. > :03:55.as an agreed deal could be more difficult. And what of other issues
:03:56. > :04:02.on the agenda, what impact is Donald Trump having on those? I think drug
:04:03. > :04:06.this summer Donald Trump is central frankly to the deadlocks and
:04:07. > :04:09.divisions of this summit. They're not reconciled on climate change,
:04:10. > :04:14.something that Theresa May raised with him and frankly Angela Merkel
:04:15. > :04:19.is struggling to find a form of words for the final concluding
:04:20. > :04:23.summit text which somehow can square away President Trump and his
:04:24. > :04:27.rejection of the Paris climate agreement with the overwhelming
:04:28. > :04:31.feeling of the others that nothing must be done or said in the text
:04:32. > :04:37.which seems to weaken that agreement. So a very tough summit
:04:38. > :04:42.and all the divisions with America coming to the fore.
:04:43. > :04:45.There are reports this lunchtime that Iraqi forces are on the verge
:04:46. > :04:49.of recapturing the city of Mosul from so called Islamic State.
:04:50. > :04:52.There's been no formal announcement but one is expected with hours.
:04:53. > :04:54.These latest pictures just in show soldiers and civilians
:04:55. > :04:58.The strategically important city of Mosul has been
:04:59. > :05:06.London Fire Brigade says its changing the number and type
:05:07. > :05:09.of fire engines it routinely deploys to tower block fires.
:05:10. > :05:12.It follows an investigation by the BBC's Newsnight that found
:05:13. > :05:15.that no high ladder engine was sent in the first wave of engines sent
:05:16. > :05:19.to Grenfell Tower fire which has so far claimed 80 lives.
:05:20. > :05:21.The Fire Brigades Union says the extra height provided by such
:05:22. > :05:24.an engine would have helped fight the ire more effectively
:05:25. > :05:41.Braving the flames just before one o'clock. Fire Services were on the
:05:42. > :05:45.scene in minutes from being called but firefighters said that they
:05:46. > :05:49.lacked equipment and sufficient water pressure when tackling what
:05:50. > :05:55.became an inferno at Grenfell Tower. It took more than 30 minutes for a
:05:56. > :06:01.high ladder to arrive at the 67 metre high blog according to a BBC
:06:02. > :06:04.Newsnight investigation. One was not automatically send. One fire union
:06:05. > :06:10.official believes if it had arrived earlier it could have made a
:06:11. > :06:13.difference. I have spoken to aerial appliance operators in London who
:06:14. > :06:18.drive and operate those appliances and who attended the incident, who
:06:19. > :06:21.think that having that on the first attendance might have made a
:06:22. > :06:27.difference because it allows you to operate a very powerful water tower
:06:28. > :06:31.from outside the building. It has also emerged there was no platform
:06:32. > :06:35.tall enough in London to suit a building of this size and help with
:06:36. > :06:40.the rescue effort so one had to be set from Surrey. London Fire Brigade
:06:41. > :06:45.has now changed his procedures so that a high ladder is automatically
:06:46. > :06:50.sent to any tower fire straightaway. Other fire brigades now may follow
:06:51. > :06:53.suit and Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service announced a change in
:06:54. > :06:57.their policy so that the high ladder is automatically dispatched to a
:06:58. > :07:00.tower block fire. Newsnight was also told but firefighters struggled with
:07:01. > :07:08.water pressure problems and called Thames Water to increased pressure
:07:09. > :07:10.in the area. Thames Water said any suggestion that there was low
:07:11. > :07:15.pressure during this appalling tragedy is categorically false. But
:07:16. > :07:20.questions remain as to what was in place as firefighters first rushed
:07:21. > :07:23.in to help the residents of Grenfell Tower that night. Even though some
:07:24. > :07:26.answers may not come until the public enquiry it seems that
:07:27. > :07:27.pressure for more precautions in the future means changes are already
:07:28. > :07:31.underway. Hundreds of thousands of people
:07:32. > :07:34.are expected to attend the Pride in London march, which gets
:07:35. > :07:36.underway this lunchtime. This year the event is marking
:07:37. > :07:39.the 50th anniversary of the first partial decriminalisation
:07:40. > :07:44.of homosexuality in 1967. Wyre Davies is in London's Oxford
:07:45. > :07:57.Street where the march It looks lively. Indeed, the 45th
:07:58. > :08:03.annual celebration in the capital of diversity and equality. Pride this
:08:04. > :08:08.year marking 50 years since the partial decriminalisation of
:08:09. > :08:12.homosexuality in England and Wales, 26,000 official participants in ten
:08:13. > :08:15.three this year and a 2 million people spectating as it winds
:08:16. > :08:21.through central London. The festival will be officially opened by members
:08:22. > :08:24.of the emergency services, many of whom served at Grenfell Tower and
:08:25. > :08:27.during the terror attacks on Westminster Bridge and London Bridge
:08:28. > :08:31.was the security is a big issue this year. This will have the biggest
:08:32. > :08:35.police presence of any pride festival. Of course amid these
:08:36. > :08:39.accusations from some quarters that it has become a bit too commercial,
:08:40. > :08:43.the parade is as colourful as ever this year and seems to have lost
:08:44. > :08:46.none of its spontaneity. It was a nail biting battle that
:08:47. > :08:49.went down to the wire but in the end it was honours even
:08:50. > :08:52.as the British Lions ended their three match series
:08:53. > :09:07.in New Zealand with a 15-all draw Rugby is part of the fabric of New
:09:08. > :09:11.Zealand. Almost everyone here is a fan although today the All Blacks
:09:12. > :09:15.seemed a little outnumbered. The Lions have arrived helpful and
:09:16. > :09:19.determined to leave with more than just memories. The lines are
:09:20. > :09:22.confident they are the underdogs, everywhere you look there are
:09:23. > :09:26.reminders that New Zealand are the reigning double world champion. And
:09:27. > :09:32.they will not be letting that trophy go without a fight. But in six weeks
:09:33. > :09:36.the British and Irish Lions have transformed from no hopers into a
:09:37. > :09:41.genuine threat. The fortress invaded by red Army. It would set the tone
:09:42. > :09:45.for a breathless first half, the pace not always matched with
:09:46. > :09:48.precision. That would come from the All Blacks Beauden Barrett who
:09:49. > :09:55.picked out his younger, taller brother to set up the opening score.
:09:56. > :09:59.Try finished by Ngani Laumape. The New Zealand captain made his 100th
:10:00. > :10:02.appearance but it weathered debutants stealing the limelight as
:10:03. > :10:07.Jordie Barrett made his first test start one to remember the All Blacks
:10:08. > :10:11.dominance was not reflected in the scoreline, the Lions were kept
:10:12. > :10:14.within reach as Elliot Daly kit for the horizon. New Zealand strain
:10:15. > :10:20.every sting you to hold back the line. They had hoped from this
:10:21. > :10:23.yellow but playing here is a test of nerves and Owen Farrell could never
:10:24. > :10:28.be folded there. This was the kick to level the match. A refereeing
:10:29. > :10:32.decision denied the All Blacks a chance of victory, a draw perhaps
:10:33. > :10:34.the fitting into a thrilling series. But for the Lions a sense of what
:10:35. > :10:35.might have been remains. Some other brief sports
:10:36. > :10:37.news before we go. England's cricketers have taken two
:10:38. > :10:40.early wickets on the third day of the opening Test
:10:41. > :10:43.against South Africa at Lord's. Liam Dawson removed
