We are back with the late news at 10:05pm.

:00:00.:00:00.

Now on BBC One its time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:11.

Seven people have been injured in a serious accident involving

:00:12.:00:14.

a roller-coaster at M's theme park near Motherwell.

:00:15.:00:16.

Emergency services are at the scene and the park has been closed.

:00:17.:00:19.

Our reporter Andrew Black is there with the latest.

:00:20.:00:21.

If you look just behind me you will be able to see the entrance to

:00:22.:00:35.

Strathclyde Country Park, that is near to where this accident

:00:36.:00:39.

happened. This is as close as police will allow us to get at the moment

:00:40.:00:44.

and it is a fast changing situation. What we know is that seven people

:00:45.:00:48.

were injured after the roller-coaster crashed for the real

:00:49.:00:52.

lives at MND is parked here near Motherwell. Emergency services said

:00:53.:00:56.

that happened on the Tsunami roller-coaster ride. This was a

:00:57.:01:00.

Sunday afternoon, this place was absolutely mobbed with families, it

school holidays have just happened. school holidays have just happened.

:01:07.:01:09.

-- M's. Some eyewitnesses have spoken to us and spoken of people

:01:10.:01:13.

being trapped upside down on the right with children on board.

:01:14.:01:17.

Someone else said it was like a scene out of a horror film. Since I

:01:18.:01:22.

have been here, there have been a lot of ambulances and emergency

:01:23.:01:25.

services coming and going from the scene. As I have said, it is a very

:01:26.:01:31.

fast changing situation. All we know at the moment officially from police

:01:32.:01:35.

is that there are seven casualties. We hope for an update later. At this

:01:36.:01:40.

stage, it is pretty clear they are having to deal with a very serious

:01:41.:01:47.

incident. Andrew Black, thank you very much

:01:48.:01:49.

for that. 13-year-old Caitlin Barnes

:01:50.:01:53.

was at the site with friends and had When I turned around to look at it,

:01:54.:02:03.

I saw the carriage hurtling towards the ground. I do not think there was

:02:04.:02:07.

anyone else on the right that it landed on. There were lots of people

:02:08.:02:13.

trapped, probably I would have said up to ten people. I saw one girl

:02:14.:02:20.

upside down who was stuck. The voice of Caitlin Barnes there.

:02:21.:02:25.

The First Minister has said she would consider asking Holyrood

:02:26.:02:28.

to refuse permission for Westminster legislation, which could ultimately

:02:29.:02:30.

pave the way for the UK's exit from the European Union.

:02:31.:02:33.

Nicola Sturgeon indicated she wouldn't vote for something that

:02:34.:02:35.

The Scottish Secretary said the Scottish Parliament couldn't

:02:36.:02:38.

Here's our political correspondent, Andrew Kerr.

:02:39.:02:46.

There's a sense of sheer confusion at Westminster after the on

:02:47.:02:55.

Thursday. Shattered careers and politics in a spin. As debate rages

:02:56.:03:00.

over how the UK might cut links from the EU, the First Minister was clear

:03:01.:03:05.

today that she could put up hurdles to frustrate the process. She might

:03:06.:03:10.

consider asking MSPs to withhold Holyrood's consent from legislation

:03:11.:03:13.

that would pave the way for the UK's departure. As the Scottish

:03:14.:03:18.

Parliament was judging this on the basis of what is right for Scotland,

:03:19.:03:22.

then the option of saying we will not vote for something that is

:03:23.:03:24.

against the interests of Scotland, not vote for something that is

:03:25.:03:28.

of course that must be on the table. There has been intense debate today

:03:29.:03:31.

as to how far the Scottish Parliament could go on frustrating

:03:32.:03:35.

Brexit. Hollywood cannot block Brexit legislation, there is a

:03:36.:03:40.

principle that if were displayed -- Westminster will legislate on such

:03:41.:03:44.

matters in my copy content of the Scottish Parliament. At the Scottish

:03:45.:03:47.

Parliament refused that, Westminster can always override it.

:03:48.:03:51.

The Scottish Secretary said the majority must be listened to. We

:03:52.:03:56.

must respect the result on Thursday even have we do not like it. I

:03:57.:04:00.

personally do not believe that the Scottish Parliament is in a position

:04:01.:04:05.

to block Brexit. Mr Mundell also indicated there would be another

:04:06.:04:08.

independence referendum, if that is what people wanted. Polling suggests

:04:09.:04:14.

elite in support for independence, with Ms Sturgeon warning Westminster

:04:15.:04:17.

that it would be unacceptable for a second vote to be blocked. Andrew

:04:18.:04:20.

Kerr, Reporting Scotland. Nine members of Labour's

:04:21.:04:24.

front bench - including their Shadow Scottish Secretary,

:04:25.:04:26.

Ian Murray - have resigned today. The UK party leader, Jeremy Corbyn,

:04:27.:04:28.

faces a vote of no confidence but says he'll stand again

:04:29.:04:31.

if there's a leadership election. Mr Corbyn, how can you survive? As

:04:32.:04:44.

he left home this morning, the UK Labour leader might have been hoping

:04:45.:04:48.

to avoid getting any more e-mails and letters from Shadow Cabinet

:04:49.:04:52.

colleagues resigned from their jobs. Labour's only MP in Scotland, the

:04:53.:04:58.

former Shadow Secretary Ian Murray, send Mr Corbyn a letter Kevin Kim

:04:59.:05:02.

that he did not believe that the Labour Party could be bold under his

:05:03.:05:06.

leadership -- leadership. He announced that live on BBC One

:05:07.:05:10.

Scotland. I said to the Labour Party and to Jeremy directly that at this

:05:11.:05:13.

moment in time I did not believe that he could be pie minister and if

:05:14.:05:16.

he thought he could be, then he is speaking to the wrong people and

:05:17.:05:20.

needs to change. His changes seems to have been the site Helena Lee

:05:21.:05:23.

bank, I think that is the wrong way to go and I think this is the final

:05:24.:05:27.

stop for many people in the Shadow Cabinet. A handful of activists

:05:28.:05:32.

rallied in support of Mr Corbyn outside of Labour headquarters.

:05:33.:05:36.

Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell told the studio is, pointing to the

:05:37.:05:39.

big mandate Jeremy Corbyn had received less than one year ago. And

:05:40.:05:44.

there was support from the party's Deputy Leader in Scotland, Alex

:05:45.:05:49.

Rowley. He accused Ian Murray and others who resigned of putting

:05:50.:05:51.

self-interest before the needs of the country. All this was very

:05:52.:05:55.

different from the show of unity just months ago, but the suggestion

:05:56.:05:57.

different from the show of unity of more Shadow Cabinet resignation

:05:58.:06:01.

still to come. Huw Williams, Reporting Scotland.

:06:02.:06:06.

Let's get the weather forecast for this evening

:06:07.:06:07.

Good evening, after a sunny start this morning, the cloud and rain

:06:08.:06:21.

soon arrived. We can see that rain moving from West to East producing

:06:22.:06:26.

damp and wet conditions. The rain is on the way out during the course of

:06:27.:06:30.

the evening and overnight. Hugh is the chart and there is the thing.

:06:31.:06:34.

Off it goes, becoming confined to Shetland. Most of the main line is

:06:35.:06:38.

dry with just mist and not for the West coast. Nine or 7 degrees

:06:39.:06:44.

overnight. Tomorrow we will seek westerly winds freshening. So for

:06:45.:06:49.

areas having up to 20 degrees today, a bit of a change. The showers will

:06:50.:06:56.

be blustery at times. South of the border, Driver England and Wales,

:06:57.:06:59.

temperatures in the South East of England up to 20 degrees. Some

:07:00.:07:01.

rights bills in the West of Scotland but many showers. Most will be

:07:02.:07:06.

across Western parts of the country but that does westerly winds

:07:07.:07:09.

dragging them in that we will see a few over in the East as well,

:07:10.:07:13.

particularly towards Edinburgh and up towards the site. Eastham

:07:14.:07:16.

Aberdeenshire is very best in terms of the amount of dry some sheltered

:07:17.:07:23.

weather for the Cairngorms. Generally a fresh feel for many.

:07:24.:07:28.

Into the evening the showers remain with us, probably a dying end to the

:07:29.:07:33.

day for the central belt. For the rest of the week, Tuesday onwards,

:07:34.:07:36.

unsettled with rain showers at times and equal or fresh feel for many.

:07:37.:07:39.

Certainly through the course of the afternoon. That is the forecast for

:07:40.:07:40.

now. Our next update is just

:07:41.:07:45.

after the Ten O'clock News. Until then, from everyone

:07:46.:07:50.

on the team here in Glasgow, enjoy the rest

:07:51.:07:52.

of your Sunday evening.
