Theresa May comes under pressure

from Leave supporters

0:00:060:00:09

in her own party over Britain's

relationship with

0:00:090:00:11

the EU after Brexit.

0:00:110:00:14

She is warned of the danger

of agreeing a deal that keeps

0:00:140:00:16

Britain in the EU in "all but name".

0:00:160:00:20

And with discontent simmering over

Mrs May's leadership,

0:00:200:00:23

we'll examine the pressures piling

up on the Prime Minister.

0:00:230:00:26

Also tonight...

0:00:260:00:28

Police release CCTV images of a man

wanted over the car crash that

0:00:280:00:34

killed three teenagers

in West London.

0:00:340:00:37

In Moscow, a leading opponent

of Vladimir Putin is detained

0:00:370:00:39

during a demonstration.

0:00:390:00:43

He's been barred from running

in the presidential election.

0:00:430:00:46

He's now being arrested by police.

0:00:460:00:51

Roger Federer wins

the Australian Open -

0:00:510:00:53

and with it, his 20th

Grand Slam title.

0:00:530:00:58

And Ingvar Kamprad,

the man who founded Ikea,

0:00:580:01:00

dies at the age of 91.

0:01:000:01:03

Good evening.

0:01:220:01:23

The Prime Minister has

faced mounting criticism

0:01:230:01:26

of both her leadership

and her negotiating stance

0:01:260:01:28

on Brexit, with fears

expressed by Leave supporters

0:01:280:01:31

within her own party

about Britain's final relationship

0:01:310:01:34

with the European Union.

0:01:340:01:35

One former Cabinet minister warned

there was a danger that a final deal

0:01:350:01:41

might keep Britain in

the EU in "all but name".

0:01:410:01:44

A serving minister,

David Lidington, urged party unity.

0:01:440:01:49

Chris Mason reports.

0:01:490:01:52

If it felt a little bit chilly

for the Prime Minister at the world

0:01:520:01:56

Economic Forum in Switzerland last

week, well, the political forecast

0:01:560:01:58

isn't looking much sunnier

for her now she's back home.

0:01:580:02:02

Some of her MPs are fed up

with what they see as her

0:02:020:02:08

merely muddling along in office.

0:02:080:02:09

And on top of that,

some of those who

0:02:090:02:12

campaigned for Brexit fear it's been

diluted to such an extent it never

0:02:120:02:15

really properly happened.

0:02:150:02:19

It is very complicated

and that is one of the

0:02:190:02:21

reasons why I have advocated

and supported compromise.

0:02:210:02:23

But there is only so

far you can go with

0:02:230:02:26

compromise without ultimately

finding yourself in a position where

0:02:260:02:28

you are selling out on the people

who voted to leave.

0:02:280:02:31

The government says

it is committed to

0:02:310:02:33

delivering Brexit.

0:02:330:02:37

But you know when a party is falling

out with itself when senior

0:02:370:02:41

figures, like this man,

who is effectively

0:02:410:02:42

the Prime Minister's

deputy, have to say this.

0:02:420:02:45

The Conservative family,

left, right and

0:02:450:02:48

centre, because we are a broad

church, needs to come together

0:02:480:02:50

in a spirit of mutual respect.

0:02:500:02:54

There are difficulties in any broad

church And look at what the bigger

0:02:540:02:57

picture is showing.

0:02:570:02:59

The next stage of Brexit

negotiations is about what

0:02:590:03:01

happens immediately

after we formally leave

0:03:010:03:03

the European Union at the end

of March next year.

0:03:030:03:06

For around two years,

freedom of movement will continue.

0:03:060:03:09

The government will introduce

a registration scheme for

0:03:090:03:11

new arrivals.

0:03:110:03:13

The rights of EU citizens

here and UK citizens in the EU will

0:03:130:03:18

remain the same.

And EU laws will continue to apply.

0:03:180:03:22

The Labour leader is facing his own

divisions in a party that

0:03:220:03:30

predominantly voted to remain

in the EU, many of whose

0:03:300:03:33

supporters, polls suggest

would like a second referendum.

0:03:330:03:35

But Jeremy Corbyn says no to that.

0:03:350:03:38

What we asked for and demanded

in Parliament has been a

0:03:380:03:40

meaningful vote in Parliament

at the end of it.

0:03:400:03:47

And what happened with this bill

was it was an

0:03:470:03:50

undemocratic power grab

by the government.

0:03:500:03:51

We're not asking for

a second referendum.

0:03:510:03:54

Tomorrow, the rest of the EU

will get together in

0:03:540:03:57

Brussels to sign of its approach

to the transition or in fermentation

0:03:570:04:01

period.

0:04:010:04:05

-- implementation period.

0:04:050:04:06

Brexit negotiations

are about to crank up again.

0:04:060:04:12

And the challenge for the Prime

Minister in the coming months is

0:04:120:04:15

that when she strikes what she hopes

will be a compromise, others will

0:04:150:04:19

screen capitulation. And all of this

at Westminster and made a swirl of

0:04:190:04:24

chatter about Theresa May's own

future. If 48 of her own MPs write a

0:04:240:04:30

letter demanding a leadership

contest, that has to happen. And

0:04:300:04:34

something we could be getting close

to that. One senior party figure

0:04:340:04:37

told me this afternoon more letters

have gone in this weekend. More

0:04:370:04:41

still will be sent tomorrow. Chris,

thank you. Chris Mason.

0:04:410:04:46

Police have released CCTV images

of a man they want to speak

0:04:460:04:49

to, over the car crash which killed

three teenagers at a bus

0:04:490:04:52

stop in West London.

0:04:520:04:53

He's believed to have been one

of two men who were in the Audi car.

0:04:530:04:56

The other man was arrested.

From Hayes, Ben Ando reports.

0:04:560:05:01

On the run. Does this grainy CCTV

image show the driver of a car that

0:05:020:05:08

ran over and killed three teenage

boys in Hayes, Middlesex? The black

0:05:080:05:13

Audi also hit a lamp post before

coming to a halt. Another man was

0:05:130:05:17

detained in a nearby garage

forecourt. He is under arrest and

0:05:170:05:20

being questioned. At the scene, a

steady stream of visitors bringing

0:05:200:05:25

flowers and messages. The boys have

been named as George Wilkinson,

0:05:250:05:29

Harry Lewis Wright and Josh Kennedy.

Two were aged 16, one was 17. Among

0:05:290:05:34

those paying their respects,

George's grandfather.

I wasn't going

0:05:340:05:39

to stop here but I had to in the

end.

How do you feel now you have

0:05:390:05:43

come?

Upset but I'm pleased, yeah.

As well as grief, there are

0:05:430:05:52

questions and anger. It isn't clear

exactly how fast the Audi was going,

0:05:520:05:58

but the speed limit on this stretch

of road is 60 mph. Many locals say

0:05:580:06:02

that is too high. And this isn't the

first time. A retired police officer

0:06:020:06:10

told me his son spent a year in

hospital after being hit by a

0:06:100:06:14

speeding driver racing his friend

here.

I am angry, yes. I am very

0:06:140:06:19

bitter about it. After my son's

accident, there have been other

0:06:190:06:24

accidents as well. One would have

expected the authorities to do

0:06:240:06:28

something.

This evening candles were

lit as the shock of what happened

0:06:280:06:33

continues to sink in. The police are

hunting any others who may have been

0:06:330:06:37

in the car. But for some the focus

is also turning on making sure no

0:06:370:06:42

other young lives are lost here.

0:06:420:06:44

Russian opposition leader

Alexei Navalny has been detained

0:06:440:06:46

by police in Moscow,

after joining a rally

0:06:460:06:48

in support of a boycott

of the upcoming

0:06:480:06:50

presidential election.

0:06:500:06:51

Mr Navalny - who's barred

from standing in the contest -

0:06:510:06:54

was among more than 240 people

reported to have have been detained

0:06:540:06:57

across Russia, during a day

of protests against Vladimir Putin.

0:06:570:07:01

From Moscow, Steve

Rosenberg reports.

0:07:010:07:04

CHANTING.

0:07:040:07:08

It isn't easy taking on the Kremlin.

0:07:080:07:11

Alexei Navalny has been jailed three

times in the last year.

0:07:110:07:15

He has been barred from the upcoming

presidential election.

0:07:150:07:19

So today, Mr Navalny

called his supporters onto

0:07:190:07:21

the streets.

0:07:210:07:24

Alexei Navalny is Russia's most

prominent opposition figure,

0:07:240:07:27

and President Putin's

most vocal critic.

0:07:270:07:30

He has been barred from running

in the presidential election.

0:07:300:07:34

He's now being arrested by police.

0:07:340:07:38

This was no softly, softly.

0:07:380:07:40

We saw Mr Navalny

surrounded by police.

0:07:400:07:44

Seconds later, he was

thrown onto the ground.

0:07:440:07:48

Then, the politician

Vladimir Putin cannot

0:07:480:07:50

bring himself to mention by name,

was dragged into the police bus.

0:07:500:07:58

His supporters called on voters

to boycott the election.

0:07:590:08:03

All the candidates,

they believe, are

0:08:030:08:06

hand-picked by the Kremlin.

0:08:060:08:08

They are candidates

that Putin approved.

0:08:080:08:11

And we do not have candidates

that we want to have.

0:08:110:08:16

There is little doubt that

Vladimir Putin will walk

0:08:160:08:19

this election, with

the help of Russian TV,

0:08:190:08:22

which maintains his macho image,

portraying him as a cross between

0:08:220:08:30

Action Man and father of the nation.

0:08:310:08:33

And Mr Putin enjoys far more airtime

than any of the other candidates.

0:08:330:08:36

But the Kremlin still needs people

to come out and vote for

0:08:360:08:39

Vladimir Putin.

0:08:390:08:41

That is why calls to boycott

the elections are making the Russian

0:08:410:08:44

authorities nervous.

0:08:440:08:48

Steve Rosenberg, BBC News.

0:08:480:08:50

More than 100 people

are now confirmed dead -

0:08:500:08:52

and 230 injured -

from yesterday's bombing

0:08:520:08:55

in the Afghan capital, Kabul.

0:08:550:08:57

The country has been observing a day

of national mourning after one

0:08:570:09:00

of the worst attacks in years.

0:09:000:09:03

Live now to our correspondent,

Secunder Kermani, who's in Kabul.

0:09:030:09:10

Just bring us up-to-date?

Today,

funerals were held for those killed

0:09:100:09:18

in yesterday's attack. It is a day

of national mourning in Afghanistan.

0:09:180:09:24

Relatives of the victims had been

waiting anxiously outside hospitals

0:09:240:09:28

or grimly visiting different morgues

outside -- across the city, trying

0:09:280:09:33

to recognise the corpses of their

loved ones. Kabul was one of the

0:09:330:09:38

safer places in Afghanistan at one

stage. Now it seems after a repeated

0:09:380:09:41

series of attacks in the city over

the past year, it is actually one of

0:09:410:09:45

the most dangerous places. Both the

Taliban and Islamic State appeared

0:09:450:09:50

to be deliberately targeting the

city now, whereas before they

0:09:500:09:53

perhaps tried to capture rural

territories from government forces.

0:09:530:09:59

They know that attacks here in the

city capture more international

0:09:590:10:03

attention, and also undermine the

government. The security forces say

0:10:030:10:06

they are doing the best they can in

the circumstances, but public anger

0:10:060:10:12

at the authorities' failure to

prevent this attack is rising.

Thank

0:10:120:10:16

you.

0:10:160:10:18

Jeremy Corbyn says a Labour

government would buy 8,000 homes

0:10:180:10:20

immediately for people sleeping

rough on the streets.

0:10:200:10:24

As part of his party's new policy,

local authorities would be given

0:10:240:10:26

powers to take over properties that

were deliberately kept empty.

0:10:260:10:31

Figures released last week show that

rough sleeping in England had

0:10:310:10:34

increased for the seventh year

in a row.

0:10:340:10:39

With all the sport,

here's Olly Foster at

0:10:390:10:40

the BBC Sport Centre.

0:10:400:10:42

Good evening.

0:10:420:10:43

14 years after winning his first

Australian Open title,

0:10:430:10:46

Roger Federer's powers

show no sign of waning.

0:10:460:10:48

He won his 20th Grand Slam final

with a five set win over Marin Cilic

0:10:480:10:52

in Melbourne.

0:10:520:10:54

The Swiss is 36 now,

but he says there are still

0:10:540:10:57

exciting times ahead.

Karthi Gnanasegaram reports.

0:10:570:11:04

The roof was required due to the

extreme evening heat, adding another

0:11:040:11:09

level of excitement as the crowd's

clear favourite, Roger Federer came

0:11:090:11:15

on to court. Marin Cilic was reduced

to tears during last year's

0:11:150:11:18

Wimbledon final against Federer.

Today he was in determined mood, but

0:11:180:11:22

it wasn't long before he found his

serve been dismissed. Federer off to

0:11:220:11:29

a flying start, dismantling his

opponent to take the first set 6-2.

0:11:290:11:34

Cilic began to challenge, labouring

away to level at one set all. But a

0:11:340:11:41

single break of serve sent the third

set Federer's way. A break at the

0:11:410:11:49

start of the fourth and Federer was

looking like a man on a major

0:11:490:11:52

omission. But Cilic forced his way

back into the match into a fit said.

0:11:520:11:57

It wasn't to last. Federer racing

towards the finish line with a

0:11:570:12:02

flourish, to see late 20th grand

slam title triumph.

I can't believe

0:12:020:12:07

he has done it again!

You guys, you

fill the stadium is, you make me

0:12:070:12:13

nervous, you make me go out and

practice. Thank you.

0:12:130:12:15

I love you guys.

Tears a testament

to the achievement of reaching

0:12:150:12:22

number 20, and a record equalling

sixth Australian Open trophy.

0:12:220:12:26

Passionate about the history of the

sport, at 36, Federer shows every

0:12:260:12:30

sign of being involved in its future

for many more years.

0:12:300:12:34

There were two more ties

in the FA Cup Fourth Round today.

0:12:340:12:36

Last year's runner-up, Chelsea,

and the Premier League leaders,

0:12:360:12:39

Manchester City, are both

through to the last 16

0:12:390:12:41

after comfortable wins.

Adam Wild reports.

0:12:410:12:49

The FA Cup is so often a competition

of contrast. Brought together in

0:12:490:12:55

Cardiff, an intriguing clash of

styles and managers. A shared will

0:12:550:12:59

to win. Manchester City at times are

impossible to match. Ahead through

0:12:590:13:04

Kevin de Bruyne, they had a second

ruled out before Raheem Sterling

0:13:040:13:07

doubled the lead. City free-flowing,

exhilarating. Cardiff resorting to

0:13:070:13:13

stop them however they could. But

the second half brought a new

0:13:130:13:17

approach. The home side almost

finding their own moment of beauty.

0:13:170:13:22

But city's is a style all of their

own and few can find a way to beat

0:13:220:13:26

them. At Stamford Bridge, the FA Cup

has real significance. Now perhaps

0:13:260:13:32

Chelsea's best hope of a trophy,

against Newcastle that motivation

0:13:320:13:36

was not difficult to see. Michy

Batshuayi's chances this season have

0:13:360:13:40

been limited but when they do, his

way they -- he has a habit of making

0:13:400:13:44

them count. Two from him in the

first out. A winning performance

0:13:440:13:48

crowned by a brilliant Marcos Alonso

free kick. Chelsea got what they

0:13:480:13:52

wanted. They will now hope for

plenty more.

0:13:520:13:56

Rangers are back up to second

in the Scottish Premiership.

0:13:560:13:58

They've jumped above

Aberdeen on goal

0:13:580:13:59

difference after beating bottom side

Ross County 2-1 at Victoria Park.

0:13:590:14:02

Jason Cummings came off

the bench to score his

0:14:020:14:04

first goal for the club.

0:14:040:14:07

Celtic are 11 points clear

at the top of the table.

0:14:070:14:11

England's cricketers

finished their one day series

0:14:110:14:13

against Australia with

a 12-run victory in Perth.

0:14:130:14:18

Surrey seamer Tom Curran

was the match winner,

0:14:180:14:21

taking five wickets for 35 runs

as the hosts fell short

0:14:210:14:23

in their run chase.

0:14:230:14:24

England taking the series 4-1.

0:14:240:14:26

Both teams will now prepare for next

months Twenty20 tri-series that also

0:14:260:14:29

includes New Zealand

0:14:290:14:37

Plenty more on the BBC sport

website, including excellent results

0:14:390:14:43

from today's Women's Super League. I

didn't find all the goals from the

0:14:430:14:48

fourth round of the FA Cup.

Ollie, thank you.

0:14:480:14:50

Ingvar Kamprad, the man who founded

the multi-billion pound

0:14:500:14:53

Swedish furniture chain Ikea,

has died at the age of 91.

0:14:530:14:57

He started the company at the age

of 17, and revolutionised how

0:14:570:14:59

furniture was manufactured,

sold and, especially, assembled.

0:14:590:15:05

Joe Lynam looks back at his life.

0:15:050:15:08

Ingvar Kamprad can safely be

described as a retailing genius.

0:15:080:15:12

Born in 1926 in southern Sweden, he

started selling matches aged five.

0:15:120:15:17

Then seeds and then pencils.

0:15:170:15:19

At 17, he formed Ikea -

named after his own initials

0:15:190:15:23

and the area where he was born.

0:15:230:15:26

Now, it's probably the best known

furniture store in the world,

0:15:260:15:28

with over 400 giant shops and annual

sales of $42 billion.

0:15:280:15:36

-- £30 billion.

0:15:370:15:42

Kamprad was inspired to create

the idea of flat-packed furniture

0:15:420:15:44

when watching someone remove

the legs off a table to fit it

0:15:440:15:47

into a customer's car.

0:15:470:15:48

He disowned his previous support for

far right parties in Sweden before

0:15:480:15:53

the war and lived a modest

lifestyle. His house did not reflect

his wealth.

TRANSLATION:

I don't think I am

0:15:560:16:03

buying anything that I have not

bought at a flea market. I want to

0:16:030:16:07

give a good example. If we are going

to be conscious about our economy,

0:16:070:16:10

we have to show that.

The genius of

Ingvar Kamprad was to persuade

0:16:100:16:16

millions of people to come to his

giant superstores, pick out products

0:16:160:16:19

that they made, liked but may not

necessarily need, and collect them

0:16:190:16:26

from the warehouse. And crucially,

assembled the whole thing at home.

0:16:260:16:30

We're used to it now, but at the

time it was laughed at. And today,

0:16:300:16:35

one famous designer tipped his hat

at what Ingvar Kamprad had achieved.

0:16:350:16:41

He actually tapped in to the taste

that every ordinary person wanted,

0:16:410:16:44

so they could get this new wave of

modernity that was coming about in

0:16:440:16:50

the 1950s, and he managed to

actually make it available to

0:16:500:16:54

everybody.

IKEA said that Ingvar

Kamprad, involved with the business

0:16:540:16:58

until recently, would be much missed

by his family and warmly remembered

0:16:580:17:02

by the company employees worldwide.

Ingvar Kamprad, who has died at the

0:17:020:17:09

age of 91.

There's more throughout the evening

on the BBC News Channel.
