Welcome to Outside Source. In May has been saying sorry of Worsley's

disastrous election result, telling MPs I got us into this mess, and I

will get us out of this. It is certainly complicated at the moment.

Brexit negotiations coming down, the Queen's speech and setting the

agenda, expected to be delayed. Theresa May hoping to get an

alliance with the DUP, but what could that mean for the rest of the

United Kingdom? And we are going to talk about the manual Macron. On

course for a landslide in the regional elections. And we are not

going to present this is not up complicated time, as usual the harsh

side is BBCOS. We can talk about Northern Ireland.

It is centre stage in British politics. Italy is eating members of

Parliament, of the 650 at Westminster. This is the breakdown.

Green, Sinn Fein. That represents those who want Northern Ireland to

leave the 80 kingdom. And red, DUP. Those are the ones that the

Conservatives would like to get support from. It has proved

controversial. They do not approve of same six marriage. That has

prompted the leader of the Scottish Conservatives to see this. I

received a categorical assurance that in talking to the DUP, no row

back of LGBT rights. We introduced equal marriage, to the House of

Commons, these are the assurances I received. That was one issue. Also

some concerns about the power sharing agreement. Irish

Nationalists and unionists must work together, and for various reasons

that system broke down in January. This is Alistair Campbell, who used

to be Tony Blair's press officer. Explaining why he thinks this idea

of the Conservatives and the DUP going together is not good. This is

about the role of the government and the Northern Ireland peace process.

When the peace process is in trouble, as it is at the moment, the

British and Irish governments are the mediators between the unionists

and nationalists how can they be the mediator, when the Unionists are

being brought to government? They have not thought this through, it is

plain with fire. The DUP do not see it this way.

Earlier, I spoke to an Irish journalist. I wanted his analysis of

these issues. DUP represent Unionism, Sinn Fein representing

nationalism. If these two parties are talking, but one side is also in

the British government, the British government cannot be an honest

broker. In reality, a strong sense of the power sharing government,

collapsing earlier this year, is unlikely to be reinstated four use.

This could do lasting damage to future power sharing, because Sinn

Fein had a good election, getting seven seats. The best performance.

And they do not take seats at Westminster, they can turn round to

voters, and told you that British politics does not work. The

Unionists are going to be part of the government. They are going to be

in charge. Next, this is a reporter from the Daily Telegraph, with

this... Just explaining confidence and supply, confidence means if you

enter into this, you agreed to back the government in the event of any

no-confidence motions, supply refers to the fact that you are going to

help on key issues, particularly the budget. The DUP support base, low

income, opposing welfare benefit cuts. That could be an issue. The

second, because of the way the geography works. Northern Ireland,

if Brexit occurs, will still have a land border with the European Union

because of the Republic. DUP supported Brexit, somewhat

reluctantly, taking a large donation of around half ?1 million when they

really decided to go for Brexit. But since then, they have said some

contradictory things. They do not want a hard border, no checkpoints.

310 mile long border. But at the same time, they do not want any

checks on people going from mainland Britain and Northern Ireland. They

do not want you to have to present your passport, going from Belfast to

Glasgow, Belfast to London. Will the DUP forced Theresa May to change the

approach? It looked as though we were going towards some sort of hard

border. But will they be able to make a difference? In some ways,

Northern Ireland having previously been safely, is now at the front and

centre. Huge amount of attention on the DUP's socially conservative

opinions on same-sex marriage. Do you think that is a distraction from

what the DUP really want? A lot of focus on what the DUP believe,

coming from radical Protestants. But they have ruled with Sinn Fein for

almost a decade. The power sharing has gone. But they are not going to

be looking for around a core social change, it is going to be politics

for Northern Ireland, and the constituencies. Going to go into

these negotiations with solid demands. And if you look at the

manifesto, from 2015, going to want things like no end to the winter

fuel allowance, more investment in Northern Ireland, no attempts to

change the benefits system. Going to be looking for solid and tangible

things. Things that they can show to the electorate, and show them that

they have deliver this. And whatever the deal is, as soon as they release

that, you will get them. The cricket, Pakistan have got to the

champion's Trophy semifinal. Having been at Downing Street, I have not

had an eye on this? It was certainly a decent performance from Pakistan.

Just over one week ago, thrashed by India, big rivals, by 124. It looked

as though they were in trouble. Sri Lanka bat first. Matthews scored 39

runs for his team. Biggest score. Then... Pakistan. This is what

happened. The captain dropped on 38. That proved to be killing. Record

eight wicket partnership off 75. Taking them to the semifinals. And

getting this victory, and a few days ago against South Africa. Through to

the semifinals. Pakistan against England, on Wednesday in Cardiff,

and India Bangladesh on Thursday. Remarkable turnaround. South Africa

and Australia, New Zealand, not through. All to play for. England

are the favourites but do not discount India for back-to-back

championships. Much more coverage on the website. In a few minutes... We

are going to look at France. What Macron has done to French politics

has been astonishing. The party has only been around for one year, he

has got the presidency and en route to a landslide in the Parliamentary

elections. People across the 80 kingdom have been mulling over

election results, and one of those was Bristol North West. Sitting Tory

MP ousted. Labour with the majority of 4000. Jon Kay has been speaking

to supporters, about what they want the party to do, after such a

disappointing result. Politics is a brutal

business, and here, things This Conservative seat has

been claimed by Labour. This afternoon, we brought together

some rather bruised Conservatives. They all agree that Theresa May

won't survive long term, but they say she must stay

on for now. We start discussions

on Brexit next week. Now is really not the time to be

trying to change the Prime Minister. How much credibility does she have

at the negotiating table for Brexit if everybody is saying

she can be the leader for the next couple of years,

but probably not beyong that? of the fifth largest

economy in the world. For others, a case of needs must,

but they do agree that after Mrs May's campaign,

they need to think A good orator, someone

with charisma, I mean, I've gone through

the options in my head and I keep coming back to Boris Johnson just

because even if you hate him, he's quite persuasive and we need

someone to counteract Jeremy Corbyn. They say the manifesto went down

badly when they were going door-to-door here

in Bristol North West, and that the Conservatives need

to think about principles, In the meantime, let's do some

real soul-searching. They told me they want Mrs May

to involve the grassroots more, I want more control from members

at Bristol level, national level, and I think that I want a leader

that will listen to us and act. Do you feel you've

not been listened to? These are not conversations Tories

here were expecting to have. We are live in the newsroom. The

lead story... The fallout from the election. Theresa May has told MPs,

I got you into this mess, and I will get you out of it. Theresa May, the

leader of a country at the moment, so is Emanuel Macron. But he

continues to revolutionise French politics. The party has only been

around for one year, already got the presidency and of course for a

landslide in the parliamentary elections. On current projections,

this is how it is going. A real landslide. The Republicans,

giants of French politics, blue. And others. Le Pen, faring no better.

Front National, between 1-10 seats. One thing to emphasise, turnout was

relatively low. And a number of the defeated leaders have highlighted

this. The fact of the matter, the

landslide this comment. His party is on track for a

landslide, one year after it was formed. Next Sunday is going to

decide the exact number of seats. But already looking ahead to

government. The significance of this result is clear, but we must show

determination to meet the challenges of the next five years. President

Macron voted at his home, as the man elected to change France. The

polling station of far right leader Le Pen, was marked by a solitary

fan, a selfie. Her party, once predicted to win 80 seats... Now

expected to get no more than a handful. Supporters must turn out

next Sunday, so that we can oppose the drastic policies of Macron,

including abolishing worker rights. Macron could end up with three

quarters of the parliament. He wants to push reforms, as quickly as

possible. The problem is that the lack of opposition in the next

Parliament will bring opposition elsewhere. And that could be in the

streets. And the French are very good at opposition in the streets. A

clear majority would be very good, tackling France's labour laws, but

any majority is likely to need sensitive politic or handling. The

party draws candidates from the centre left, centre right, half new

to politics entirely. The is going to begin a new political era, new to

voters, president and parliamentarians. Today marks one

year since the Pulse nightclub attack in Orlando. 49 people killed

when a guman opened fire at a gay nightclub. Our correspondent has

been to see how the community is moving.

They were named ambassadors of hope, love, and healing in Orlando.

The fallout from the election, most people deleting whether the

conservatives were going to get a large medium, small majority. Not

many commentators expected the hung Parliament. It has raised questions

about the government, and how bricks at -- Brexit negotiations could go.

I have been at Downing Street, reporting on the comings and goings.

I was doing a lengthy Twitter q But I also recorded some answers.

Just behind me, the Cabinet is having its first meeting since last

week election. Which new policies of the government going to burst

through and what will be the approach to Brexit? All day long, on

Twitter, you have been sending me hundreds and hundreds of questions.

Why are Remainers saying Brexit is losing momentum when the Liberal

Democrats and Scottish National Party did not gain? They are looking

at what Theresa May said during the campaign. I am asking the British

people to give me a strong mandate so I can negotiate and of course she

has been talking about her Brexit, leaving the single market, the

customs union. The fact she does not have that mandate, no majority, that

is wider Remainers have said people are rejecting her a version of

Brexit. It is a difficult thing to do. The other thing to talk about,

Labour and the south of England. It looks as though Labour were doing

better at Remain areas. Particularly the south of England. The anecdotal

evidence, they were not liking what Theresa May has said.

What did the 52% vote for in the referendum? Staying or leaving the

single market? That is one of the issues. Whatever form Brexit

cliques, disco and to please some people more others. Hi Laura. The

Conservatives going to seriously consider replacing Theresa May? I

think it is a life question. For now... It seems as though the

Cabinet seem to think the best thing to do is to let Theresa May stay at

the moment. They do not want to have the instability of a leadership

election. They do not want to be immediately having any Conservative

bloodbath. If that happens, they could get another general election.

And after how wrongly got the calculations, they would be

terrified because they fear it could be Labour winning. And

constitutionally, Theresa May had the votes. Most part not going to be

out of the woods later? Some have said no way that she can be the

leader when it comes to the next general election. Out by the summer?

Christmas? A couple of years? Politics is just so volatile. We do

not know the answer. Food vendors nearby? Reporters need food! The

Prime Minister has got more pressing matters. And at the centre of town,

we can get plenty of food! You have got the media, and on the left-hand

side, the front door to number ten. Waiting on the Cabinet ministers.

And I will be back tomorrow. Any more questions about what is

happening, you can find me on Twitter. I will get you an answer.

See you tomorrow. Bye.
