Robert Mugabe is expected to make
a statement imminently, | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
announcing that he is standing down
as Zimbabwe's President. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:12 | |
Hours after a visit from
the generals who moved against him - | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
he appears to be responding
to an ultimatum to | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
resign by tomorrow. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:24 | |
That came from his old comrades
in the ruling party Zanu-PF - | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
which has already replaced him
as its leader. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:33 | |
We'll have the latest from Harare
as we await Mr Mugabe's | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
address to Zimbabweans -
37 years after he came to power. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:41 | |
Also this evening:
Here, the Chancellor says he'll use | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
this week's budget to speed up
the building of new homes. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:53 | |
And England make it
through to the semifinals | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
of the Rugby League World Cup. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
Good evening. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
Robert Mugabe is preparing
to address his fellow Zimbabweans - | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
and is expected to announce
that he is standing | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
down as President -
after nearly four decades in power. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Time appeared to run
out for Mr Mugabe today | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
after his own party gave him
an ultimatum to resign - | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
and he was visited by the army
officers who moved against him. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
Let's cross live to our
Africa Editor Fergal Keane. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:47 | |
This city is tonight tented
anticipation, because we are told | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
that possibly even within the next
hour, President Robert Mugabe will | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
go on state television and address
the nation. Reuters is saying he has | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
reached a deal with the military
earlier today, and is preparing to | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
stand down. That isn't confirmed,
but these reports come at the end of | 0:02:05 | 0:02:11 | |
another extraordinary day here. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
It began today with this
visit from the generals. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
Bearing a message that left
Mr Mugabe in no doubt that | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
all support had now drained
away from him. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:20 | |
At the same time, his own party
was meeting to remove him | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
from the leadership. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
It was a jury that celebrated
its way to the verdict. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
The old man is coming, they sang. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
Actually, he was on the way out. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
How quickly loyalties have turned. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
An old friend read out the sentence. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
It had the feel of a show trial. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
Mr Mugabe's wife, Grace,
was kicked out of the party, | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
and prosecution demanded. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
It has to be over now. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:04 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
It's over. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:07 | |
What he did is enough. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
Enough is enough. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:09 | |
The people of Zimbabwe showed
in numbers that they are fed up | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
with this dynasty and,
look at my back. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:20 | |
This is the moment when Robert
Mugabe lost power in his own party, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
the party he dominated for so long
and has now been replaced as party | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
leader by a man who was one
of his closest allies for decades. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:34 | |
A crocodile! | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
The new leader, Emmerson Mnangagwa,
is known as the crocodile, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
celebrated here for his ruthless
cunning. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
And when it gets its prey... | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
And, for decades, he enforced
Robert Mugabe's will. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
The fear is that he
becomes a new strongman. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
We need a deliberate
process that turns power | 0:03:54 | 0:04:00 | |
to an elected civilian order. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
Not someone who will be deemed
and perceived to be the target | 0:04:04 | 0:04:09 | |
and the beneficiary of the coup. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
That would be a disaster. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
In the centre of Harare, there
was a very different atmosphere. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
Gratitude and hope
for reconciliation at | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
this prayer service. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
All here have borne the sufferings
of the Mugabe years. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
Some were personally targeted
during attacks by his supporters. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
You and your family suffered
terribly at the hands of Mugabe. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
Do you feel the nightmare
is now over? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
I'm just worried about obviously
what's going to happen next. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
His trusted lieutenants
are the ones that carried | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
out his business for him,
and they will be the ones | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
in power in future. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:45 | |
And it's a question of what happens
in that transition, whether we get | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
to a place where there are free
and fair elections. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:55 | |
These are emotions that have
been pent up for years. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:59 | |
Mourning for what was lost here,
and daring to hope. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:09 | |
So bring us up-to-date on where we
stand tonight. The speculation that | 0:05:11 | 0:05:16 | |
this address from Robert Mugabe will
signal his departure. The | 0:05:16 | 0:05:22 | |
speculation is intense. You've got
to remember, the military control or | 0:05:22 | 0:05:27 | |
access to Robert Mugabe. He
effective house arrest. Would they | 0:05:27 | 0:05:33 | |
allow television cameras and the
state broadcasting service to pitch | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
up and allow him to make a statement
unless unless they were something | 0:05:37 | 0:05:42 | |
they were sure they wanted to hear.
The interesting thing will be the | 0:05:42 | 0:05:46 | |
terms, though, because is he going
to be allowed to go into exile to | 0:05:46 | 0:05:51 | |
live in comfort somewhere else, or
even stay in the country? People | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
might accept that, but at the party
rally today at the Central committee | 0:05:55 | 0:06:00 | |
meeting, there was intense
discussion about his wife, Grace, | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
who faces so much opposition from
people, and there are many who want | 0:06:04 | 0:06:09 | |
to see her and others around her
faction prosecuted. Thank you. BBC | 0:06:09 | 0:06:14 | |
News will keep you up to date with
what ever we hear from Harare as it | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
happens. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
The Chancellor, Philip Hammond,
has said he'll use this week's | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
budget to speed up the building
of hundreds of thousands | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
of new homes. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:25 | |
But Mr Hammond stressed there was no
"single magic bullet" | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
to increase housing supply -
and the government would not | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
simply "pour money in". | 0:06:30 | 0:06:31 | |
Our Political Correspondent,
Ben Wright, reports. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:37 | |
Building up expectations ahead of
the budget for a raft of measures to | 0:06:37 | 0:06:43 | |
fix the housing crisis. The
Chancellor wants developers to stop | 0:06:43 | 0:06:47 | |
sitting on land that's been given
the green light for housing. There's | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
lots of things we can do using
planning and intervention powers to | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
get planning permission is that have
been granted to be built up. We will | 0:06:54 | 0:06:59 | |
use the powers of the state and the
planning system, but we are | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
determined to get those missing
homes built. Today Mr Hammond gave | 0:07:02 | 0:07:08 | |
hints about government help for
smaller house builders and a | 0:07:08 | 0:07:12 | |
possible cut to stamp duty. Housing
seems set to be the centrepiece of | 0:07:12 | 0:07:25 | |
the budget, but will it add up to
the giant house-building leapt | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
another Cabinet Minister has called
for? Labour says the government | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
should borrow more money for
house-building and stretched public | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
services. Stop giving tax cuts to
the rich and invest in public | 0:07:31 | 0:07:36 | |
services. The head of the NHS in
England says health needs a £4 | 0:07:36 | 0:07:42 | |
billion spending boost. The
Chancellor says he will seek to | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
address particular pressure points,
but a splurge in any one area looks | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
unlikely. Balancing the books is
still the age. There will be cash | 0:07:50 | 0:07:55 | |
for driverless technology and
artificial intelligence, but will | 0:07:55 | 0:08:01 | |
robots put millions of us out of
work? The Chancellor said that will | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
not happen, and said this. Where are
these unemployed people? There are | 0:08:04 | 0:08:10 | |
no unemployed people because we have
created job since 2010. Mr Hammond | 0:08:10 | 0:08:17 | |
said he meant that technological
change over the years has not left | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
people out of work. He knows the
contents of his budget box will be | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
crucial to Theresa May's struggling
government, as well as his own | 0:08:25 | 0:08:31 | |
fortunes. More money has been argued
as being needed to be spent on the | 0:08:31 | 0:08:37 | |
health service and house-building.
Some Tories are urging him to come | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
up with new ideas. The Chancellor
knows there are critical Tory MPs | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
who want him out of his job because
they don't think his heart is in the | 0:08:45 | 0:08:50 | |
task of getting Britain out of the
EU. We will not be defined by... The | 0:08:50 | 0:08:57 | |
outcome of the Brexit negotiations
will matter more than a single | 0:08:57 | 0:09:02 | |
budget, and tomorrow, a core of
ministers will discuss how to | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
unblock talks, knowing that offering
more money may be key. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:11 | |
A British sailor has died
after being swept overboard | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
during an international yacht race. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:14 | |
60-year-old Simon Speirs
from Bristol was sailing | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
between South Africa and Australia,
as part of | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
the Clipper Round the World Race. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:19 | |
The retired solicitor,
who was wearing a life | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
jacket and safety tether,
was rescued from the water, | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
but never regained consciousness. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
Police in Dorset say they're
treating the death of the teenager | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
Gaia Pope as unexplained. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
The 19-year-old's body was found
yesterday afternoon close | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
to a coastal path near Swanage. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
She was last seen alive 12 days ago. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
Her family have said
they are "absolutely devastated". | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
The Conservative MP Anna Soubry
says her office has received | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
13 death threats against her over
the last week. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
She says the messages were directly
linked to the way she and other | 0:09:47 | 0:09:51 | |
party members were branded "Brexit
mutineers" by | 0:09:51 | 0:09:54 | |
The Daily Telegraph newspaper. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:55 | |
She said that she had been "quite
frightened" by the threats. | 0:09:55 | 0:10:02 | |
A huge air and sea search
involving five countries, | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
and including the Royal Navy,
is underway to try and locate | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
an Argentine submarine. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:07 | |
The San Juan has been
missing since Wednesday, | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
with 44 crew on board. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
Contact was lost as it returned
from a routine mission | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
near the southern-most tip
of South America, but there are now | 0:10:14 | 0:10:18 | |
signals being detected which may
provide clues as to its location. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:22 | |
Dan Johnson reports. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
This is a vessel designed to play
hide and seek in the deepest depths. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
So finding the San Juan, its crew,
and the 22 torpedoes it carries, | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
is a real challenge. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
Fresh satellite signals,
albeit weak ones, | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
have revived hopes of rescue. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:44 | |
Seven call attempts have been
received, says the Navy spokesman, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
but they were incomplete
and need to be checked | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
to pinpoint the location. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
He stressed they are making every
effort to find the submarine, | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
searching the open ocean
and the sea bed. | 0:10:55 | 0:11:00 | |
This is now an international effort. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
The US Navy has flown in deep-sea
rescue equipment, and HMS Protector, | 0:11:02 | 0:11:08 | |
the Royal Navy's Arctic patrol ship,
has been diverted to help | 0:11:08 | 0:11:13 | |
scan beneath the waves
of the South Atlantic Ocean. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:17 | |
The San Juan left the southern port
of Ushuaia last Monday | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
after a routine mission. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
It was making the 2,000 mile journey
back to its base in Mar del Plata, | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
not far from Argentina's capital. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
The search is focused around
halfway, in the San Jorge Gulf, | 0:11:29 | 0:11:36 | |
where the sub last made
contact on Wednesday. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
One of the 44 crew members is
Argentina's first woman Sub-Mariner. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:44 | |
The best hope for finding her
and her crew mates alive, | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
is that a power failure knocked out
the submarine's communications. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:51 | |
Six countries are now
hunting for the San Juan, | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
but it's lost in a huge area
of ocean, and bad weather is making | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
a difficult job even harder. | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
Dan Johnson, BBC News. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:03 | |
With all the sport, here's
Lizzie Greenwood Hughes | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
at the BBC Sport Centre. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
England are through
to the semifinals of | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
the Rugby league World Cup. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
They beat co-hosts Papua New Guinea
36-6 to set-up a last four match | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
against Tonga next weekend. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:18 | |
John Watson has the details. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:27 | |
Flying the flag down under. A trip
worth making were England to reach | 0:12:27 | 0:12:34 | |
the semifinals. Her Papua New
Guinea, Rugby League is their | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
national sport, and they are
fanatical. Silence the crowd, and | 0:12:37 | 0:12:42 | |
you may just silence the team.
England did just that. Yet another | 0:12:42 | 0:12:47 | |
try for Jermaine McGillvary. Ten
tries, ten matches. Papua New Guinea | 0:12:47 | 0:12:52 | |
were trying to knock England off
their stride, but the vast hand of | 0:12:52 | 0:12:57 | |
Kallum Watkins a moment of magic as
McGilvray found the line again. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:02 | |
Watkins died the try line... --
Watkins died the try line and that | 0:13:02 | 0:13:12 | |
semifinal spot. Ryan Hall finished
with a flourish. A bit scratchy at | 0:13:12 | 0:13:21 | |
times, so still a lot to work on.
Really pleased to be progressing in | 0:13:21 | 0:13:26 | |
the competition. The boys are
looking forward to it. To be in the | 0:13:26 | 0:13:31 | |
semifinal is something special. Time
for the fans to extend their stay. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:36 | |
Two games for England to find the
fluency that will take them to the | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
title. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:44 | |
David Moyes has lost his first game
in charge at West Ham. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
They were beaten 2-0
by Watford in today's only | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
Premier League match. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:50 | |
Richarlison scoring a brilliant
second goal at Vicarage Road. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
West Ham are third from bottom
after just two wins this season. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
Hearts drew their first game
of the season at Tynecastle | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
after their new main stand
was belatedly given a safety | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
certificate this morning. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
The score was 1-1 against Partick
Thistle. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:06 | |
Chris Coleman, who resigned
as Wales manager on Friday, | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
has taken charge of the struggling
Championship side Sunderland. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
Coleman led Wales to their highest
world ranking and took them | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
to the semifinals of the Euros. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:14 | |
Sunderland are currently
bottom of the table | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
after just one win this year. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:17 | |
He'll be their eighth manager
in the past six years. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:21 | |
English golfer Tommy Fleetwood
held-off a late charge | 0:14:21 | 0:14:28 | |
from Justin Rose to win the Race
to Dubai title as the season's | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
European Number One. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:33 | |
Fleetwood only finished 21st
in the final event - | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
The Tour Championship -
but it was enough to top the money | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
list after Rose fell apart
in his final few holes. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:46 | |
England's women's cricketers could
still draw the Ashes Series after a | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
win in camera by 40 runs. Australia
have already retained the trophy, | 0:14:50 | 0:14:55 | |
but England have close the gap in
the multiformat points series and a | 0:14:55 | 0:15:00 | |
win in the final game will level the
series. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:07 | |
Great Britain's four man bobsleigh
team have won a surprise bronze | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
medal at the second World Cup event
