Hello, it's Monday, it's 9am, we're in Westiminster,

Where else would we be on the Monday after that election. We are on the

rooftop, why not, overlooking the Houses of Parliament, as Theresa May

insists she can stay on in Downing Street. I am pleased that people

from across the party have agreed to serve in my cabinet and we are going

to be getting on with the job of government. But talk of possible

leadership challenges continues. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson

however says he is backing the Prime Minister. Jeremy Corbyn did not win

this election. It's absolutely right that she should go ahead, form a

government, and deliver on the priorities of the pupils to -- of

the people. Labour say they are ready for government.

Meanwhile, Labour says they're ready for Government.

Throughout the morning, we'll be joined by politicians

And we're joined by an audience of voters.

I am Hermione, I voted Liberal Democrat and I definitely do not

want another general election. I voted for Labour and I think the

parties need to come together. I voted Conservative, I am looking for

us to move on. Wherever you are in the country, do let us know what you

want to happen next. Rob has already tweeted me to say, I just want some

peace and quiet! Whatever it is you want next, do let me know. You can

e-mail, send me a message, or text. Hello, good morning. We are on top

of a roof at Westminster. And it is a cloudy morning, an overcast

morning, and it is the morning that Theresa May, another morning where

Theresa May has to fight for her political life. She is going to meet

her backbench Conservative MPs later and set out her case. In Downing

Street. The Prime Minister will also chair

Damian Green, an old friend of the Prime Minister,

become first Secretary of State. Former Justice Secretary Liz

Truss has been demoted, Other key figures staying where they

are are Jeremy Hunt and Liam Fox. Mrs May will hope the reshuffle,

most notable for its lack of changes, will help her

reach out to Tory MPs. She said last night she intends

to stay in her job. I said during the election

campaign that if re-elected, What I am doing now is actually

and what the public would expect. They want to see

the House of Commons The PM may have to wave goodbye

to some of her policy plans. Today, she will meet

with her own backbenchers, many of whom will be

looking for reassurances. She now faces the challenge

of starting Brexit talks Norman Smith is here. Where are we

this Monday morning? I think kind of the nearest analogy I can give is if

you imagine getting a jigsaw, throwing it up in the air and land

on the floor and nobody knows how to put the pieces back together.

Basically, everything has changed. Mrs May is still in Downing Street,

but what we saw over the weekend was the Cabinet seizing power. They are

running the show, telling Mrs May how she will conduct herself and

presenters of, how she needs to reach out of the party. Even talking

about shaping the sort of policies she is going to pursue. And in terms

of the manifesto are going to have to be jumped. The DUP, yes, it is

probably going to be OK to get a deal on a ghostly basis, but that is

perhaps the worst sort of arrangement for Mrs May. If you have

a day by day deal, you need a Prime Minister who is a bit of a wheeler

dealer, but arm round people's back and get them on board, come on,

you're going to back us on this. Not the kind of politician that Theresa

May is. On top of that, the battle lines are being drawn again over

Brexit. It is where it clear we are heading for the Battle of Brexit.

Round two, with all of the old Remainers thinking, right, now is

our moment to pick away at some of the policies Mrs May was suggesting

an Brexit, such as for example, maybe we will have no guilt. They

don't want that. Maybe we could be in the Single Market and have a

Norway option. For those who thought Brexit was signed, sealed and

delivered, I'm afraid that whole row looks like starting again, as Mrs

May Fozz opponents -- Mrs May's opponents use this moment to aim for

a closer associate members of the EU, sort of half in, half out point

thank you. Here's Joanna with a summary

of the day's news. Exit polls following the first

round of France's parliamentary election suggest President Macron's

new centrist party is on course for a landslide victory.

Projections show La Republique en Marche and its MoDem ally look set

to win up to 445 of the 577 seats The party was only set up one year

ago. Detectives investigating the London

Bridge attack have made a further arrest in east London.

Both the White House and Downing Street have dismissed

a report that Donald Trump wants to delay his proposed state visit

to the UK until he has the support of the British public.

An online petition was signed by nearly two million

people who wanted to block the American President's

The opposition was inflamed by Mr Trump's criticism of London

mayor Sadiq Khan's response to the London Bridge terror attack.

A new poll suggests many children are confused about where their food

comes from. One third of 5-7 year-old survey by the British

nutrition foundation thought cheesecake came from a plant, not an

animal. Nearly a quarter thought prawns come from plants, and a fifth

of those questioned thought chips were also from animals.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News.

Now the sport, with Katherine Downes.

Thanks, Joanne, such a busy weekend of sport. Chris Coleman thinks they

need to win all four of their remaining World Cup qualifiers if

they are to reach next year's finals. A penalty for Aaron Ramsey

gave them the lead. But the home side levelled, leaving Wales four

points behind. The Republic of Ireland drew with Austria. We were

looking to win it in the last ten minutes. Once they equalised, you

know, they have to and puffed, we had two or three breakaways there.

It could have been different. Overall, good game, tough game, two

good teams. For us one point is a good point. The England manager

Gareth Southgate says it is up to clubs to nurture young talent.

England National Football team have won a World Cup. Everton's Manik

Calvert living with the goal. Goalkeeper Freddie Woodman making an

amazing save to make sure that England lifted the trophy.

Obviously, ultimately the aim is that those players come through to

the seniors. A big part of that is for them to get opportunities with

their clubs. I think they have shown that if the under 20s real world

champions, there is enough players there to fulfil careers in the game

without clubs looking elsewhere. History was made in Paris as well.

Rafa Nadal thought he would be fishing on his boat of Majorca by

now, not winning the French Open for a record tenth time. He cruised back

Stan Wawrinka in ten sets to take his 15th major cycle. He has won

Grand Slams in his teens, 20s and his 30s. And Lewis Hamilton's

Formula 1 title challenge is back on track. He won the Canadian Grand

Prix, leading from start to finish in Montreal to take the chequered

flag for the sixth time and cut Sebastian Vettel's Championship lead

to six points after he could only finish in fourth. My first win he

was ten years ago. To repeat it this weekend is incredibly special. I

really have to thank my team, who made this possible. The guys back at

the factory have worked so hard to really fix what we had in the last

race to bring it here. Sir Patrick Stewart was asking the questions, if

you didn't recognise him! That's all the sport, back to you, Victoria, in

Westminster. Thank you very much. More sport throughout the warning.

Good morning, it is Monday morning, it is overcast and cloudy and warm,

it is in mourning that Theresa May, the Prime Minister, for now, is

fighting for her political life. So it is the morning.

Theresa May is fighting for her political life this morning

as she prepares to meet Conservative MPs to persuade them she can

It looks like she'll be forced to abandon so many of the promises

she'd made in the party manifesto - a manifesto many blame, in part,

for the party's downfall in last weeks election -

and she's had to bring back into her Cabinet Michael Gove,

And if she does manage to cling on to power, overshadowing

everything is the knowledge that in one week from today she must

begin negotiations that will determine this country's future

I have just chaired a meeting of the Cabinet...

My simple proposition is, it should be our choice...

We want to put a case out to the people of

It's an opportunity for the people of this country

People will write PhDs about the 2017 election

I think we've witnessed a political earthquake.

And what we're saying is the Conservatives

Note they don't have an overall majority at this stage.

314 for the Conservatives, that's down 17.

If accurate, it means that Theresa May has just presided over

the greatest catastrophe that I can think of in the Conservative

I cannot see any way at all that the Conservatives can

Loss after loss for the Conservatives.

The Prime Minister called the election because

Well, the mandate she's got is lost Conservative seats,

lost votes, lost support, and lost confidence.

She doesn't shy from difficult decisions, but she now has

I have just been to the Her Majesty the Queen, and I will now form

a Government, a Government that can provide certainty and lead Britain

forward at this critical time for our country.

The Prime Minister has spoken with me this morning,

and we will enter discussions with the Conservatives to explore

how it may be possible to bring stability to our nation at this time

It's quite possible, quite possible there'll be

an election later this year or early next year, and that might be a good

thing because we cannot go on with a period

Theresa May is a dead woman walking, it's just how long she's

And I'm sorry, Theresa May, you can pray to God

in that church right now - you have had it.

She's won the most seats, 56 seats more than Labour,

she's won the biggest share of the vote for 34 years.

It wasn't the big majority that she wanted, that we wanted.

We now have to get on and make the best of it.

With me is Jacob Rhys Mogg. When the election was called you said it's

always a good idea to trust the British people and ask them for

their say. What do you think they have said with this outcome? What I

do I think they have said? I think the Conservatives won. It is the

highest share of the vote we've got since 1983... What do you think was

said with the fact that there isn't a majority? They have said nothing

about Brexit because Brexit was not at the heart of the campaign...

That's what Theresa May wanted it to be? It is what she wanted, but it's

not what she got. You get all the Remainers coming on now saying the

campaign was all about Brexit. They said nothing beforehand. Now they

say the voters said something they didn't. You say it's not about

Brexit. Then what does it mean? I think we have to be honest about it,

it was a raspberry at the Conservative manifesto. That was the

bit that got us into trouble. I don't think it was... Brexit was in

the Conservative manifesto. But that wasn't what was the focus of the

campaign, was it? The campaign was about social care and Jeremy Corbyn

campaigned well. He didn't do as well as Michael Howard in 2005, but

nonetheless Jeremy Corbyn did much better than the expectations and

politics is very much about expectation and momentum. I mean

perhaps, sorry to interrupt, perhaps it was the electorate saying to Mrs

May, we don't particularly like you. We don't particularly like your

domestic pollees, we don't like your policy on Brexit? I don't think

that's right because Mrs May got more votes than Tony Blair got in

199 #. More physical number votes. I'm not trying to pretend the

election was an enormous triumph, it wasn't as bad as some people have

written up. Mrs May got a complete mandate. Last year you said Boris

Johnson would make a great Prime Minister and leader of the

Conservative Party. He has the sense to be a unifier and a representative

of the nation on the world stage. Do you still believe that? I think

Boris Johnson is a great man. One of the really big figures of British

politics. Mrs May is the Prime Minister. There is no vacancies.

Boris said he doesn't want to become leader now. Do you believe that? We

need Mrs May to remain. We need Mrs May to deliver on Brexit. People

have been talking about disasters. Disasters are when the Titanic sinks

not and when your vote share goes up. Some people used the word

catastrophe? Calm and deliberation is what we need and that leads us to

the conclusion that Mrs May is the right... We have a selection of

voters here. PROBLEM WITH SOUND

You heard what Rhys Mogg said. Her campaign was about strong

leadership, but in my view, what should have happened is to speak

about the economy because in the last two elections when Mr Cameron

was Prime Minister, that's what won the vote. I want to ask you is Mrs

May the right lady to use Jacob Rhys Mogg's word for the job right now?

That's what we've got and unfortunately that's got to remain.

Who else wants to say something about that? Alex. I would like to

ask a question if I could. I was really encouraged as a youth worker.

I work in Luton and I was really encouraged that young people came

out and voted and I'd love to know what you think young people have

been saying in the vote because I think that's fascinating the early

signs that we're seeing? It was very interesting and it's a change from

previous elections. I think it's very good news. I think you have a

better mandate for all MPs, the more people turn out to vote and the

turn-out was up election. We're getting close to # 7% which was --

70% which was routine. We need to use social media to communicate our

message. The leaflets I put out are successful with a more mature

community, but I'm not sure they are right for the younger votes and

that's what we have got to get through. We don't have the exact

figures, but when the election was called 1.5 million 18 to

24-year-olds registered to vote. What do you think it is saying if

turn-out among 18 to 24-year-olds is as high as people are saying. Are

they saying we don't want a hard Brexit? They care about the future.

They're voting for the NHS, they're voting for he had caution and voting

for really key policies and I think they want a better future for

everybody. Can I add one thing? Yes. The clear message from Brexit and

from so many young people voting is people are fed-up with business as

normal. They don't want the political elite of which I am a

part, I can't depatch myself from it. They don't want the political

elite carrying on as they have done. They want something fresher and a

greater trust in democracy. But that's what Theresa May is doing.

She is carrying on as though it is business as usual. Well, we still

have to have a Government within this context. It is about the

message that we've got to deliver and that's the key we should pick up

from the general election. A quick show of hands. We have got a mixture

of voters, Green, Lib Dems, Labour, Conservatives, who thinks it's right

that Theresa May continues as Prime Minister now? Hands up. Right now.

Right now. So most of you do. OK. That's interesting. That includes

some Labour voters there as well. That's interesting. Alex, you're a

Labour voter, why? It feels like in the short-term I would agree, we

don't need another general election. That's crazy. I don't think she has

the confidence of the country or the confidence of her party and I can't

see it lasting long, but right now for the short season, perhaps it's

right. All right, thank you. Doesn't it just show the wisdom of the

British people? You gather together a group and they calmly want to see

things carry on, having the country carrying on. That may not have been

on the tip of our tongues, but it goes back to what you voted for. You

can trust the people. The British people get things right. How long

will Theresa May last? An eternity. Thank you very much. Thank you for

coming on the programme. Much more from our voters and from politicians

from all parties throughout the morning. Good morning. It's the

Monday after that election! Welcome to Westminster. We're on a roof and

why not? We've got a group of voters from different parties. We will hear

from senior politicians, Labour defying all the pundits and some

within their own party and celebrating the election result.

Some say as if it was a have you beeningtry with many insisting they

can still go on to form a Government.

We have a chaotic situation with a Government that sought

re-election on the basis of wanting a bigger mandate and a bigger

majority to bring stability to British politics,

A minority Government relying on the DUP to try and get business

through the House of Commons when they have no agreed positions,

as far as I can work out, on most issues.

It seems to me chaotic, and I think we are quite ready

and able to put forward a serious programme which obviously has

Remember, this election campaign turned around a great deal

on the basis of an awful lot of people rejecting the politics

of fear and instead embracing the politics of hope that we can

challenge austerity and we can actually start sharing the wealth

Let's talk to Emily Thornbury who is the Shadow Foreign Secretary as you

know and an Islington MP. Where are we today? Well, good question! I

think that what has been so interesting in this election is that

Labour has defied all expectations. I think that we've had a really

popular manifesto that has drawn more and more and more support and I

think that people realise that it doesn't have to be this way. There

is an alternative. I think what's also really interesting is if you

continue to look at the polling we continue to get even more popular

after the general election and if an election was called today, we would

win. There won't be an election today. I'm just saying. You asked me

where we are, that's where we are. What are you going to do to

capitalise on the extra MPs that you now have, not the largest party, but

what are you going to did? We're going to make sure we hold their

feet to the fire. So where we can, for example, on the Queen's Speech,

we will be trying to ensure that we hold them to account, that where

there are things that we profoundly disagree with them, where we think

we will be able to defeat them, we will put out amendments and keep

harrining them. Jeremy Corbyn said he would put down an amendment to

the Queen's Speech. That's the Government's programme of

legislation over however long. If you put down an amendment next

Monday, what does that mean in practical terms? Explain to what our

audience what you would be hoping to do with that amendment? The Queen's

Speech is the opportunity for the Government to get the Queen to read

for a couple of pages where she says my Government this and my Government

that and it's supposed to be their vision for where they want to take

Britainment we think very haven't got much of a vision and they have

no idea what they are going to put in, they have to negotiate with

their backbenchers and negotiate with the DUP. But we will have, we

have a clear vision of what we want to do with Britain, so we will be

looking to that and we will be looking to what it is that they have

put down and putting down our vision and our amendments and asking

Parliament to vote on that. Right, and you would expect all of the

Conservative Party and all of the DUP, will vote for the Government's

programme, not your amendment, is that what you're saying? Yeah. It

depends... To vote for your vision of Britain? The classic way would be

a Government wins an election on their manifesto and then that

manifesto is basically boiled down to two pages by the Queen and then

that's their programme for Government. Well, they can't do

that, can they? Because they haven't got a majority and they haven't got

their backbenchers agreeing with them. They have a majority with the

DUP. It's wafer thin? Two lost their jobs and the other one lost his

seat. They have a majority with the DUP? They have got a majority, but a

majority for what? That's where we are and that's why the Queen's

Speech is quite important, we want to know what it is they agree to and

then we will be pushing them and keep pushing them. We heard from

some voters some of whom are Labour who say that it is right that

Theresa May continues for the moment, for a period of stability.

What do you say to our voters? Well, you know, it's, let's see what

happens. I mean, the reality is that she won the election in one respect,

but in the major respect she didn't. In the respect that her manifesto

didn't win. People don't have confidence in her. She is a wounded

Prime Minister. She is not really going to be able to do anything. She

is going to have to do it in agreement with the DUP which causes

all kinds of problems in terms of the peace process in Northern

Ireland. If you want me to start talking about that, that's really

worrying. How they're going to patch this together, who knows? In the

meantime, there is Brexit going on and that's really important to get

rightment and we have a very different idea about what kind of

Brexit negotiations we should behaving than frankly Theresa May

seem to be envisaging. Labour voters here. Danny, what do you want Labour

to do, if anything? Well, I think that the Labour Government needs to

prepare to be in Government in the eventualality that's the situation

that can happen, but on a wider level this points out that the

electoral system in this country needs electoral reform. That could

be a whole two hour programme! We're not going to get into that now! Can

I just say to Danny, absolutely. I have been saying to everybody, don't

put your posters away, put them in the top drawer because there will be

another election, it looks like, I am afraid and people may not want to

have it, but it looks like that's where we're going to have to go.

Matt? One of the reasons that people are saying Labour have won, I don't

think we have won, but it has been a phenomenal turn around in six

weeksment they weren't saying if we don't win, that's it. The response

has been phenomenal. What do you want Labour to do now to capitalise

on their success on Thursday? Keep doing what they have been doing over

the last six weeks. Who knows what they can achieve. A majority is

achievable. One thing we learned over two years is a disawe nighted

party is an under Popular Party and what happened in that election is we

were united and what we're going to see now is the Labour Party sticking

together and look at the Tories, they are going to be falling to

pieces. Can I just ask you about Brexit? Some people are not clear

where Labour stance on Brexit. You have talked about leaving the single

market and the customs union and ending freedom of movement. What's

your position? I have explained this and I'll do it

again. We wanted to stay in the European Union but we Kacar

instructions from the British people so we are leaving. How -- we take

our instructions. Nobody voted by poorer or lose their job. It has to

be a jobs first Brexit. Does that mean staying in the Single Market?

The difficulty is that we find it very difficult to envisage how we

would remain in the Single Market. The reality is that... It does mean

leaving the Single Market? But we want to have tariff free, red tape

free access to the Single Market. This is a nuanced position. It is

nuanced but entirely consistent. I was shadow Brexit and then Shadow

Foreign Secretary. I haven't ever to make this clear. It is my fault, but

I have said that hundreds of times. It is the economy first, the safety

and security of our nation and then the economy so quite do you

understand Labour's Brexit position? No, if you look through the Labour

manifesto they want to re-nationalise... We are talking

about Brexit now. I am linking it. Here you are talking about

inevitably remaining a member of the Single Market. You can't do both of

those things. I said, it is not inevitable that we remain in the

Single Market. If we are leaving the EU, it seems it is very difficult

for us to remain in the Single Market. We want to have access to

the Single Market, and that has to be overwhelmingly our priority. But

at... Listen, nobody has left the European Union before. If we went

into it in good faith and said to the Europeans, we have a problem, we

want to leave, let's not do negotiations like Theresa May

stamping her feet and saying, I want, I want, I want. You go along

and say, this is what we think we should be doing and how about this?

Talking to them, listening to them, and working out a compromise, that

is what our approach should be. You need to go, thank you very much,

Emily Thornberry. Let's talk more about Brexit. What do you want

Theresa May to do now? Having failed to get a majority and having failed

to get the mandate she was asking for from the British people, does

she need to change her approach to Brexit... Or not? Let's hear from

Toby. I think she needs to amend her views on the whole thing. To me

there seems a middle ground in terms of what we were saying, it has to be

a jobs first Brexit which has the economy's best interests at heart.

Theresa May has said she is leaving the Single Market, do you want her

to change her mind? Absolutely, the good thing about this is softening

the stance and sorting out a position where we can move forward

as a nation. Everything about the last couple of years of politics has

been about division, and I think we need unity. Anyone else? Her

rhetoric of being a citizen has been incredibly divisive. It should be a

real lesson about bringing the country together. She has spoken

about it but she has divided the country more. You have to understand

that what everybody wants at this point, I really do not think she

actually wants to take anything at all away, it is a way of starting

negotiation and conversation. When you get to negotiations, you do not

tell the party that you are negotiating with that you are not

ready to go all the way there. It is a point of getting a way to start

talking with Europe and trying to get the best deal for Britain. Let's

bring in Neil Coyle, a Labour MP, nominated Jeremy Corbyn as Labour

leader but has since been one of his heart harshest critics. Do you now

eat your words? All of the humble pie has been scoffed by over the

weekend but I am happy to have my share. People overestimated the

enthusiasm of some of the new members and policies that were more

radical, like tuition fees. We all underestimated how angry people

still work with Theresa May over Brexit, as you have been talking

about. Also, after seven years of Theresa May being in government, she

kept saying she cared about the people who were just about managing,

but in her manifesto she offered nothing for the people who have been

struggling, nothing for the police or house-building. We saw what

happened with the social C. What do you do now, then? Everything has

changed and nothing has changed. Yes, it is great to have more Labour

MPs and great to have, you know, the chance to be nearer Government, but

nobody should be suggesting that we have won this election by any

stretch of the mark. The Tories are still there and able to do the

damage. I wanted to be in... To make sure we have more police and that we

are building more affordable housing. Do you want another

election? I think it is inevitable. Theresa May has affected her own

chances. When you say it is inevitable, can you describe to me

in parliamentary terms why it would end up being inevitable? What has to

happen for an external election? I think Theresa May has no mandate.

She has a manifesto that she cannot deliver, a party that is angry. She

has to lose a covered in smoke in the House of Commons. All of her

Conservative MPs and the DUP take her to a majority position. -- she

has to lose a confidence vote. All of those in a confidence motion one

would expect to vote for her. How is a general election inevitable? You

are underestimating how ruthlessly Tory Party is. Some of her own MPs

would vote against her? Yes, she said this election is only about

herself. People have shifted, they want to know what is happening with

the Single Market. The Labour Party has won in Kensington and

Canterbury, I think partly on Remain alone. People are angry and

concerned about drug. They want her to change her position. Some in her

party will have to force to do that -- people are concerned Rod Lawler.

What do you think about the deal with the DUP? I think it is a

disgrace. I thought Tim Farron's views abortion and being gay were

bizarre, but the DUP are alarming. We have seen what the SNP were

doing, and thankfully they have been knocked back. We have seen a rise in

tension in Northern Ireland. Brexit has so many costs and consequences

and risks that this Government are trying to ignore. The cracks are

widening. Thank you, Neil Coyle, Labour MP. More from our voters

later. Let's hear the news and sport with Joanne. Theresa May will today

meet backbench Conservative MPs and set Hryko sustained run in Downing

Now the sport, with Katherine Downes.

Wales need to win all four of their remaining qualifiers if they are to

make it to Russia next year, that is according to their manager Chris

Coleman. They drew with Serbia yesterday. England's under 20s of

the world champions, beating Venezuela 1-0 to lift the World Cup.

Gareth Southgate says it is time for Premier League clubs to nurture this

home-grown talent. Lewis Hamilton said his team dealt a blow to the

scared about Boris, but Corbyn is not viable. Andrew on Twitter says,

I want an answer on white Theresa May has reinstalled Jeremy Hunt as

Health Secretary. Thou said, I want Theresa May to put together a

package of ideas for how to make the country forward. -- how to take the

country forward. What is the deal with the DUP? What kind of Brexit

are we asking for? I have still no idea. Elspeth on Facebook says, this

is how a self-serving politician, this is house of serving politicians

mess with our country and our future. What a mess! Who can you

trust? Let's talk a bit more about the Conservatives and the fact that

they are going to have to rely on Northern Ireland's DUP's ten MPs to

give them a majority. But at what price? Let's talk to Alistair Ross,

a former DUP junior minister. We can also hear from Peter Lynas, director

of... Who is director of the Evangelical Alliance. It is a

Christian organisation. He is also in Belfast. And Alan Murray is a

transgender woman and O2 BT campaigner from Northern Ireland --

Ellen Marie. Alistair Ross, the most powerful woman in Britain goes to

number ten to meet the Prime Minister. What will Arlene Foster be

asking for in exchange for supporting a Tory government? The

clue is in the document that was produced two years ago when everyone

thought we were heading towards a hung parliament. I suspect that what

Arlene and the DUP team will be asking for is three things. To

secure Northern Ireland's position within the UK and play a greater

role in national politics. Secondly, there will be an ask around

additional revenue for the Northern Ireland block grant. If there is an

executive up and running, perhaps additional economic levers to help

us become more economically competitive here in Northern

Ireland. Thirdly, Rob post-Brexit world, as you will be aware the DUP

want a soft border with the Irish Republic. That means there is a free

flow of people who will go up and down the country between Northern

Ireland and the Republic of Ireland on a daily basis for work. Also the

businesses on both sides of the border who have supply teams that

straddle the border. Those are the things that the DUP will be asking

for in the discussions with the Conservatives over the coming days.

We have just got this in from Reuters. Arlene Foster, the DUP

leader, saying her priority talks with the Prime Minister are about

defending the United Kingdom and a good Brexit deal. Peter Lynas, good

morning to you. What is your view on this deal between the DUP on the

Conservatives was blog good morning, Victoria. We work across various

parties in Northern Ireland. The DUP, along with many others. In a

sense, I agree with Alistair. The DUP set out sometimes two years ago.

The DUP sometimes misunderstood, they are not a simple party of the

right or left, they have objected to some of the things are Conservative

manifesto around welfare reform. They want to see the triple lock and

want to fuel allowance capped, many of their voters are class. They will

disagree with the Conservatives there. Northern Ireland has the

young European land border. A soft Brexit, that will have a big impact

-- European land border. There will be something around the terror and

extremism stuff. We have a very real understanding of terrorism here in

Northern Ireland, it is different from extremism. The DUP have been

betrayed as an extreme party over the weekend, that is unhelpful,

there is counter extremism legislation that it is important

that we get right but it really needs to go to the end whether its

violence and terrorism. We have a real understanding of that. Let me

bring in Ellen Murray, and LGBT campaigner. Is there anything

extreme you have just heard from either Peter Lynas or Alistair Ross?

Good morning. I don't think I have heard anything necessarily extreme

from either of them so far. However, the DUP's social policies around

LGBT rights and their history, both in Parliament and at home in the AM

of Eric Murray poor. -- in the assembly are poor. We can expect a

stagnation of LGBT rights if the DUP have the power to start influencing

the Tories on what they can and cannot introduce as legislation.

We have various people in the audience who want to talk about the

DUP's views on same-sex marriage and abortion. What do you think about

this potential deal between the DUP and the Conservatives? I think it is

a disgrace and I also think... Why is it a disgrace? Well, it is a

disgrace because they are a party known for having quite extreme views

and they have no - I mean we've just, we passed like same-sex

marriage a few years ago and now the Conservatives did and now they're

with a party which doesn't, which discriminates against LGBT people...

On religious grounds they don't want same-sex marriage in church. Will?

Theresa May is not giving the reassurances that LGBT ought to be

protected. She has pointed her new Justice Secretary who has a number

of homophobic records. He voted against, they voted against the

consent in the 1990s, same-sex marriage on both occasions and she

is not giving those reassurances that are needed. Do you think

legislation in England and Wales is going to change when it comes to

equal rights as a result of a deal with the DUP? That's the point. I

don't think that's going to change. The whole essence of having the

collaboration with the DUP was to get through Parliament, get a

majority that the Conservative Party needs and to be able to focus on the

things ahead like Brexit so I don't think their views is going to colour

the views of the Conservative Party. I do think that the DUP as you quite

rightly said, I don't think they are going to try and influence social

policy in the UK. What they are looking for is economic assurances

and extra economic aid in Northern Ireland, but I do think someone

raised a point earlier about whether the Conservative Government can then

influential change in Northern Ireland but I do think it is

important to remember we have a devolved Assembly in Northern

Ireland and that's a matter for people of Northern Ireland and

whether as was seen in this country you will see social change come

about through a grass-roots movement. I don't really think it's

the right approach to say well, we're going to force this change

into Northern Ireland as much as I would believe that it's the right

direction. Let me introduce you to Clare Murphy. Come nearer. Clare

Murphy is from the British Pregnancy Advisory Service. What is your issue

with the DUP doing a deal with the Conservatives? Well, you know, I

think we've heard the word extreme used this morning and when it comes

to abortion that is fair... Nothing will change in England and Wales?

That's a fair and legitimate word when it comes to the DUP. This is a

party that believes that it is moral and right to compel a woman who is

carrying a pregnancy where the baby has no skull to compel that woman to

carry that pregnancy to term. It doesn't actually represent public

opinion in Northern Ireland on these issues. There is a strong ground

swell of public opinion in favour of decriminalisation of abortion in

Northern Ireland and for women to be able to access abortion at least in

certain circumstances and I think the only good thing we can say about

this situation is at least it's brought attention to what's going on

in Northern Ireland. In terms of women's access to services. From

what we're told the DUP, in terms of this deal, will be wanting, you

notion billions poured into the Northern Ireland economy, will be

wanting perhaps Theresa May to dump some of her policies from her

manifesto. There is nothing, they're not demanding anything, they're not

demanding restrictions on women in England and Wales. It's interesting

you say that, though because the DUP do vote in Westminster on issues

that only pertain to women in England and Wales, but they vote on

abortion issues so when they say they don't intervene they do

intervene. I was suggesting it wouldn't be part of this deal

though? Well, let's hope it's not part of this deal, but let's use

this opportunity to really stand up and make our voices heard on the

kind of situation, you know, to really make clear our voice is on

how we feel about the situation for women in Northern Ireland. I'm going

to bring Alistair Ross in. A former DUP junior ministerment there are a

number of people who are really worried about the peace process,

Alistair Ross because they say for the Good Friday Agreement the

British Government has to be neutral, has to be totally impartial

when it comes to the peace process so how can they be impartial,

neutral when they are doing a deal with the DUP? If I can say the DUP

is a socially Conservative Party, but Northern Ireland is socially

Conservative, you know, in comparison to the rest of the United

Kingdom and other parties also hold the same view that the 196 Abortion

Act shouldn't be extended to Northern Ireland. It is not just the

DUP, the SDLP and most of the unionist party would hold that view

as well. In terms of the process, I have heard a lot about this from

particularly Labour MPs in the last 24 hours. It would almost suggests

that the Labour Party when they were in Government didn't try to do deals

with the DUP and of course they did and they would have taken sides at

different times. Yes, absolutely, but just a minute. It stands to

reason that the Government will be be Holden to the DUP and that

doesn't make them neutral or impartial when it comes to the peace

process? It is not a mergerment it is a much more informal arrangement

around supporting a Queen's Speech, a Budget and potentially any motions

of no confidence in the Prime Minister. So I think it will be over

a limited number of issues and then other issues will be done on an

issue by issue basis, the DUP will want as much flexibility as

possible. In terms of neutrality in terms of the talks starting at

Stormont to get the executive back up and running, the talks have the

UK Secretary of State and the Irish Government are represented and the

Northern Ireland head of the Civil Service will chair most of the

discussions, ultimately an agreement will have to happen between the

parties in any case and where the UK Government come into it and

nationalist parties said they are not an impartial actor for many

years already, but where they come into it is around some of the stuff

around legacy, but look, this is a concern, I've heard the concern, but

I think the Secretary of State will do all he can to make sure the

perception is he acts as an impartial player in any talks and I

think the head of the Civil Service in Northern Ireland will chair most

of those discussions if that's a concern for nationalist parties.

OK, thank you very much, all of you, Alistair Ross former DUP junior

minister, thank you to Peter, Director of Evangelical alliance and

Ellen Murray, LGBT campaigner and Clare Murphy from the British

Pregnancy Advisory Servicement let's talk to Chuka Umunna who has been a

fierce critic of Jeremy Corbyn. Would you chouk like a job again in

the Shadow Cabinet? Well, I'm not sure I would describe myself as

fierce! Well, look, Victoria, in the end who is in Jeremy's team is up to

Jeremy and I don't think it is up to me or anyone else to tell him who to

point or hold a herself r reshuffle. If we were asked to serve, people

would do that because we have got to focus our fire on the Tories and

getting them out of Government as soon as possiblement they have

created a right mess, chaos and shamble which is interesting soap

opera in Westminster, but in the end will affect people's lives. And the

big issue on the horizon is Brexit. You know, that's going to have a

huge effect on your viewers jobs and livelihoods and we have got to do

the job that we must do of scrutinising the deal, the

negotiations and making sure that we get the best deal for our

communities and that's where everybody in the Labour Party will

be focussed on. So, in Parliamentary terms, does

that mean from a Labour point of view, you get together with the SNP,

with the Greens, and others to try to vote down what Theresa May and

the DUP will try to do on Brexit or do you hope the Democratic Unionists

will end up softening approach to Brexit? -- Theresa May's approach to

Brexit? We will put forward our own agenda and our own ideas. We will

make amendments to legislation as we see fit. There are three things that

come out of the election. One, the Prime Minister does not have a

mandate to pursue an extreme job destroying Brexit. She doesn't have

that now. Two, she was talking up the prospects of no deal being

better than a deal. I think that's off the table, given that the DUP

are seeking a soft border with the Republic of Ireland and that will

require a deal and thirdly, for her to get through any legislation

relating to Brexit, never mind a vote on the deal, she is going to

need a degree of cross party support. Simply getting the DUP

support is not going to be enough. There is a huge amount of

legislation which will have to go through Parliament, both prim

primary and secondary legislation to give effect from our withdrawal from

the European Union. I really do think that we're in a change

situation now. Right, OK. We have a number of voters here, Labour,

Conservative, Greens, etcetera, Lib Dems. And including Labour voters,

most of them feel it is right that Theresa May continues as Prime

Minister for a period of time because they don't want another

general election. Are you surprised by that? I'm not surprised by that.

I mean, if I just look in my constituency in straet statement, in

Lambeth, we had local elections in 2014. We had a general election in

2015, we had the European referendum in 2016, and another general

election this year. I think the people we represent want us to get

on with the business of ensuring we've got a smooth running country

and there is a Government doing what people want it to be doing. So I'm

not surprised by that, but I have to say, if there is another general

election I think people are certainly not wrong to talk about

there possibly being one, it will be simply because the current

Government, a minority Government, is not able to govern effectively

and it maybe that if they can't get through the legislation, can't get

through their policies they have to go back to the country and ask the

people for a clearer instruction as to what they want and I mean one of

the things that's been not commented on quite as much as I think it

should be is the fact that we're still a really divided country. I

think people were very alarmed coming out of the EU referendum just

how divided we were and the divisions twob the generations,

between different parts of the country, I don't think, you know, we

can think that any less coming out of this general election. We are

still looking like a very country and the question is how do we unify

and come together to build a better tomorrow for future generations?

Gordon Brown flirted with the DUP back in 2010. What's your view about

the Conservatives and the DUP together? Well, think a lot of

people find some of the views of some of the politicians in the DUP

really quite objectionable. They don't have a very good record on

some LGBT rights for example. I don't particularly like their views

on abortion. I understand they are opposed to people having the right

to choose when it comes to abortion. So I can understand the alarm that

has been raised by Ruth Davidson and others in the Conservative Party and

more broadly, but there is the big issue here that traditionally we

have established the convention that the UK Government seeks to act as an

impartial honest player when it comes to resolving issues in

Northern Ireland. And at the moment, there is not a functioning

Government over there. And how on earth, given they have this

arrangement with the DUP, can the Conservative minority Government act

as an impartial player in that situation which is a delicate one?

I'm not sure that they can. Can it? Right. Well, I don't see how they

can act as an I will partial player between the different parties in

Northern Ireland when they have this arrangement with the DUP. Thank you,

Chuka Umunna. Thank you for your patience, I appreciate T Katie on

Facebook says, "The people voted and the verdict is, we are divided. Just

as we were about Brexit. The Conservatives have the largest

number of seats and they have a duty to do the best for Britain when it

comes to Brexit." Sean says, "I wish Labour won. It would have been

interesting to see their faces realising they had to deliver their

manifesto." ." Small chuckle here from voters, including Labour

voters. Vor viewer says, "Jeremy Corbyn and his coalition would

actually represent more of the UK population. They also seem more

stable and consistent than the Conservatives and DUP together."

Wherever you are in the UK, let me know, what do you want to see happen

next? Right, let's bring you the weather. Here is Carol.

This morning it was a chilly start. There is a lot of cloud around and

some showers. The strongest winds across central and Southern Scotland

and northern England. Here we have got gusts 40mph to 50mph. They will

ease as we go through the day. Through the day, many of the showers

will fade and we will see sunshine with highs up to 21 Celsius. Through

the evening and overnight, there will be clear skies and a lot of dry

weather. Some patchy mist and fog forming across southern areas and

then we have got weather fronts coming in across Northern Ireland,

Western Scotland, north-west England and north-west Wales introducing

rain. Through the course of tomorrow, that rain will turn more

showery as it advances north-east wards, but with high pressure in the

south, things remain fairly settled with a fair bit of sunshine and

temperatures climbing nicely, we are looking at highs around 23 Celsius,

18 Celsius in the north and then as we head on into Wednesday, with high

pressure firmly in charge, it's going to be a sunny and a warm day

in the south. Highs 26 Celsius, possibly 27 Celsius, as we drift

further north, there will be more cloud and once again, we will have

rain, flirting with the north-west, which will peg the temperatures

back. It is 10am, as Duke can hear from

Big Ben! Come to the programme. -- as you can here.

It's just one week to go before the Brexit negotiations start,

but instead the Prime Minister's having to focus on shoring up

I am pleased that people from across the party have agreed to serve in my

cabinet, and we're going to be getting on with the job of

government. And with a record number

of 18-to-25-year-olds voting this time round,

what can we learn from The clear message, both from Brexit

and from so many young people voting, is that people are fed up of

business as normal. They don't want the political elite, of which I'm

inevitably -- I can't attach myself from it, they don't want them to

carry on as normal. They were backed by 40%

of the electorate, but it wasn't Labour says they will

keep on fighting. Last week's general election

was full of twists and turns. We'll be speaking to

some of them shortly. We will be analysing what is going

to happen over the next seven days as we head to the start of the next

Brexit negotiations. We will talk to more politicians, we have a group of

voters. Wherever you are in the UK, tell me what you want to think

happens next. Here's Joanna with a

summary of today's news. Theresa May will today meet

backbench Conservative MPs and set out her case for staying

on in Downing Street. The Prime Minister will also chair

a meeting of her newly Michael Gove, one of the driving

forces behind Brexit, Mrs May is also still

trying to secure a deal with the Democratic Unionists

to ensure they'll back The Brexit Secretary, David Davis,

has criticised the Conservative MPs who have questioned

Theresa May's leadership. I have to say, I view all of this

talk about the leadership, as it were, as the height of

self-indulgence. You know, the British people have given us an

instruction, a result we wouldn't have chosen ourselves, but they have

given as and instruction. It is our job to get business through the

House of Commons and from the country. She's very good and bad.

I've served with her for ten months, she's an extremely good Prime

Minister -- she is very at that. Exit polls following the first

remaining World Cup qualifiers if they are to be short of reaching

next year's finals. A penalty from -- Aaron Ramsey gave them the lead.

It leaves them Quadri points behind, Republic of Ireland drew with

Austria. We were looking to win it in the last ten minutes. Once they

equalised, they have an pass, we had two or three breakaway is there

which could have been different. Overall, good game, tough game, two

good teams. For us the point is a good point. England manager Gareth

Southgate says it is up to the clubs to nurture young talent, because for

the first time since 1966 and England National Football team won a

World Cup. The under 20s but Venezuela 1-0 in the final in South

Korea. The Everton player with the goal. Freddie Woodman, the keeper,

made a brilliant penalty save to make sure they lifted the trophy.

Ultimately, the aim is that those players come through to the seniors.

The big part of that is for them to get opportunities with their clubs.

I think they have shown that if at under 20s we are world champions,

then there are enough players there to fulfil careers in the game

morning at Westminster. Not far from Downing Street. We have voters from

different parties. Thank you for giving up your Monday morning, nice

to see you. Not far away from number ten. Theresa May is presumably

working out what she is going to say to her Conservative backbenchers.

She is going to have to persuade them that she is the right person to

keep going with Brexit, but what kind of Brexit will it be? So many

questions they will have for her when she meets the 1922 Committee.

Theresa May will face questions about her leadership and campaign

strategies today when she meets backbenchers from the

There's been strong criticism from within the party

after the Tories lost their Commons majority at last week's election.

Her first big parliamentary test for the minority Government

will come at the end of the month when MPs vote on the Queen's Speech,

that's the Government's legislative programme -

a list of all the laws the Prime Minister hopes to get

through Parliament in the coming year, which the Queen will set out

The thinking is she is going to have to junk quite a lot from the

manifesto if she is going to do the deal with the DUP.

If she stays in her job, Theresa May's first big test

will come next week with the Queen's Speech.

It should be a time of celebration for the winner, where the Queen

gets to tell the nation how her new Government

will put all those election promises into action.

My Government will legislate to reform...

First, the Conservatives are eight seats short

of a majority in Parliament, which means the other parties could

They are trying to form a Government at the moment,

I've no idea what they're going to put into the

Queen's Speech, no idea what their stance is going to be

That is, unless ten MPs from the DUP in Northern Ireland

Possible, but probably only after some concessions.

That could mean more money for Northern Ireland,

or a promise that Brexit won't mean strict border controls

But Theresa May has a bigger problem.

The Conservative manifesto itself is widely seen as a disaster,

That manifesto now must go down as one of the most

disastrous political documents in British history.

And that, believe it or not, is not an exaggeration.

So plans to scale back the triple lock, which guarantees the state

pension, could be shelved, as well as the idea to means-test

Winter Fuel Payments and changes to social care in England.

No majority also means plans for new grammar schools in England

and a third runway for Heathrow could be kicked into the long grass.

What, though, about the impact on Brexit?

For the last year, Theresa May has been talking tough.

I couldn't be clearer - Brexit means Brexit.

Many think the election result now means she'll have to compromise,

maybe trying harder to keep us in the single market

and the customs union, maybe even negotiating over the most

contentious point, the free movement of people.

The problem is, those key EU talks are meant to start

in just a week's time, which doesn't give Mrs May much time

to rethink her strategy before getting round the table.

So what kind of challenges will she face?

We can speak now to Anushka Asthana, Political Editor at

And Andrew Gimson, who writes for the Conservative Home website

Hello, both of you, good morning. How short is the Queen's speech

going to be next Monday?! It'll have to be pretty short. Anything that is

contentious cannot be in there. Why are you in Government? You are in

Government to make policy. It is not all about Brexit. Our frustrating

than for the Conservatives that they are going to struggle. I wonder if

she called by election not just because of Brexit but because of

grammar schools. A lot of people on the backbenchers thought that they

might not vote for the grammar is called policy. Well, she wouldn't

have a chance of getting that through now. She certainly wouldn't,

but it might be a relief. She might be better at being a weak Prime

Minister than pretending to be strong. This is an interesting spin!

It has only just occurred to me! But it has something to be said for it.

People say yes or no, you know a bit in advance what people think, and

you can then take people with you. Also her weakness, the other

advantage of being weak is that they won't be able to read Greek who to

replace her with and they certainly won't want another election. -- they

won't be able to agree on who to replace her with. If you are a Prime

Minister you can't go on making terrible mistakes by cooking and top

with just a couple of advisers in number ten. Do you buy that? I

haven't heard that the re-. You heard it here first! This is a

divided country, a lot of people voted Tory and a lot of people voted

Labour. She is to have to be more mindful about what type of policies

the Labour Party would support. Maybe we would get some issues

through the Houses of Parliament. There is fear of this revolutionary

man from Islington who was about to march on Downing Street and could

well be Prime Minister if there hadn't been another election soon.

They will all be desperate to avoid that. A number of people, including

the Conservatives, seem to be saying, look, it is not if it is

when she goes. What are you hearing in terms of timescale? Well, you

know, clearly it is a very difficult position she is in. She only needs a

handful of people on the backbenchers to oppose her and you

are in a real amount of trouble. There are clearly more than a

handful of people who are annoyed with Theresa May and the

Conservative Party. That said, there appears to be a movement among the

MPs to say, look, she should be safer now, we need to get on with

the Brexit talks. Maybe she has six months. The problem with that is, do

we suddenly have the instability of the leadership contest and maybe a

general election in the middle of the Brexit talks. What is your view

on that? Boris Johnson wrote in the Sun today, it he is supporting her

and everybody else should. He wants to be Prime Minister and leader of

the Conservative Party, he is biding his time. An absolute rock of

stability and loyalty in these troubled times! If anyone, I can

steady the ship... Surely this great ally of Theresa May. I think it will

really depend on how it goes with Brexit. I mean, Brexit could be what

the Suez Canal crisis was for Anthony Eden. Explained that analogy

for our younger viewers was blocked Anthony Eden won an election in

1935, he was a glamorous successful figure who took over from church or

a lot about the Middle East. He had trouble with Colonel Nasser closing

the Suez Canal. He did it in a very underhand way, sending in troops,

without the Americans backing us. Then he had to pull out the troops

very soon afterwards. It was a sign that Britain was no longer a great

power. Terrible humiliation and he went on here in the grounds of

ill-health but really because his great credibility that he had built

up ever since he opposed Hitler had been thrown away by opposing this

effectively this Egyptian. What circumstances would Boris Johnson

need to be in the middle of two months kind of leadership challenge?

The party would have to want him. I would be surprised if he mounts a

challenge like Michael Heseltine. Heseltine got rid of Margaret

Thatcher but didn't wear the crown. I think he will be very, very

anxious. He will want the party to want him, and maybe they weren't,

maybe they will want somebody else. Riding in a horse when somebody else

has triggered the election. He is not very good at writing! Who has a

view about whether they would want or not want Boris Johnson as, you

are a green voter, said Gazala is the Tories want to lose an election

even worse, Boris Johnson is the man to do it! Is people rejected Theresa

May, Boris Johnson is far worse and even less credible than she is even

today. Let me ask some Conservative voters.

Let's hear from Andrea, a Conservative voter? I don't think I

would be following Boris Johnson. Why? I just think, I don't think he

did very well as a Foreign Secretary. I don't think I need to

say more than that. Many of the things that went before would make

him unsuitable. Is there anyone here who would suggest Boris Johnson as

leader of the Conservative Party and British Prime Minister? I'm a Labour

voter, but I see the appeal of Boris. It would be good for the

Conservative Party to have a big character who is different from

Theresa May. Would it be advantageous to Labour? Boris knows

how to win elections. I think he has some qualities. You are a

Conservative voter. I think he is playing the whole Brexit thing gets

down played and if we are looking at Jeremy Corbyn to get the swell of

popular vote then why wouldn't he? Anyone else on Boris Johnson? I

agree as a Conservative voter that in fact, Boris Johnson, he jokes

around and all this, but we mustn't dismiss him as an extremely clever

politician and very experienced politician and therefore, as we say,

if Jeremy Corbyn could have so many votes, I cannot see why Boris

Johnson can't. OK. Let me ask both of you about the Scottish

Conservative leader, Ruth Davidson and her influence on Theresa May

when it comes to Brexit. Just outline for our audience the

differences between Ruth Davidson's approach to Brexit and Theresa May's

and why Ruth Davidson has this approach? She is a centrist

politician. She is the sort of person who would appeal

across-the-board including to some Labour voters. Scotland is a country

in which people actually want to see more immigration because it's really

important that they don't have a decline in population and Ruth

Davidson is a huge advocate for soft Brexit, although briefly she was one

of the big voices against Brexit in the first place and she has got some

very important MPs up there who Theresa May needs, even more than

she needs those DUP MPs. So what Ruth Davidson says in terms of

shifting towards a softer Brexit is going to be very, very important and

I did notice the Brexit secretary dfs saying the Tory position was not

that different to the Labour position. There was one issue, it

was how far you're prepared to go on immigration. Andrew? Has wrecked the

careers of Tory leaders for decades and it could still wreck Theresa

May's position because the party is very deeply split on this and

particularly on the immigration stuff and she knows some of the

immigration stuff goes down well to the Labour voters who she was hoping

to attract over to the Conservatives. To soften on that,

she refused to do it obtwofrt students would be a big thing. Ruth

Davidson and others might force her to do that. Thank you both very

much. Thank you for your time, Andrew, from the Conservative Home

website and Annouska. We have the Queen's Speech next Monday where the

Queen will set out on behalf of Theresa May and her minority

Government the legislation that the Conservatives will try and get

through the Commons. The thinking that some of the manifesto will have

to be dumped because the DUP have different views on means-testing the

winter fuel allowance and the triple-lock, what do you think is

vital for Theresa May to keep in the Queen's Speech and what should she

dump? Let's hear from the back row. If you look at the triple-lock

pensions for instance, in many as in the short-term that may do her well

in term of getting the coalition together, however in the long-term

it may increase the inequality which by the looks of the jump in the

Labour vote hadn't done the Conservatives well particularly in

London where the generational issue he have department. What should she

keep and what should she dump I have read the Tory manifesto and there is

silly things like the fox-hunting. I think that may have to go? It's

silly social stuff, but the economic side of it agree with. What about

her approach to Brexit, do you think it will have to change as a result

of her doing deals with the DUP? Since the vote I have been really

worried and people putting buzzwords, hard Brexit, soft Brexit,

it is not true. We either leave or we don't and it is a hard stance to

get and I understand they are trying to win people over, but that is

what's going to happen at the end of the day and I think we're moving

towards remaining a member and I'm worried about it. Really? You think

we're going to stay in the European Union? We will probably leave in

name only. OK. Does anyone else think that's a possibility, we might

end up staying in the European Union? Yes. I do. Is that because

you want that to happen? Well, I suppose it's wishful thinking and I

don't see how you can just completely leave and nobody really

knows what they voted for. They voted for all the half-hearted ideas

of what it may or may not be and even now we still don't know hat

Government's position is and the Labour Party has been wishy-washy

and in the middle. As a Green voter, most of us wanted to remain because

we thought we needed to stick together. The world is in a terrible

state and we need to be working with everybody else and not separating

ourselves even more. Let me bring in some politicians. Good morning all

of you. We have Vince Cable, Sir Vince Cable, who is a Liberal

Democrat. As you know former Secretary of State for business,

innovation and skills and he won again in Twickenham, regained it. We

have Conservative a MP, who is in favour of Brexit and as voted in

again on Thursday and we have the SNP spokesperson on Brexit and you

won by two votes on Thursday night. They all count! Wow. Wracking and

you are calling for a pause in Brexit negotiations? Well, I don't

think anybody can pretend that the election didn't happen. We are in a

changed set of circumstances. One of the mistakes that Theresa May made

was to try not to reach out to other parties and other points of view.

Defining a relationship with Europe has an impact on every area and

every person, and not working with devolved administrations... Well,

the clock is ticking? The clock was ticking when the election was

called. It does look bizarrely irresponsible does it not to trigger

Article 50, the process of leaving the European Union that two year

timetable, and then call a general election? I think they are very

separate. We had a referendum which had a clear decisive result. We are

not tacking about the referendum? And then we triggered Article 50 and

there was the issue of a general election where she sought a mandate.

People were saying she hadn't got her own mandate last year and it was

an entirely legitimate thing to call that election. Is she a lame duck

now? I don't think so. How is she not a lame duck? You look at the

numbers, the Conservative MPs are more than the Labour, SNP and the

liberals put together so they are clearly in the lead and it is

customary to have the leader of the leading party to form a Government

and I think she can do so. She will be be Holden to the Democratic

Unionist Party for almost everything? We have 318 MPs which is

similar to what we got in 2015. It is 30 fewer than when you called the

snap election? There is a basis for having a Government. Steve would

remember the SNP had a minority Government only ten years ago and

they lasted four years and got re-elected When we were a minority

Government we had to reach out to other political parties and had to

make come employee mises and that's something Westminster is not used

to, it is something Holyrood is used to. We had a coalition Government

and it lasted. There has to be a change in the attitudes to reaching

out and especially on the European issue. Vince Cable, is Theresa May a

lame duck? She has created this mess and she should stay and clear it up

and she has won this election and I don't think the country should be

held to ransom because of internal feuding in the Tory Party. She is

the Prime Minister. She should get on and as we just heard, reach out

to other parties and we have got to sort out the mess around Brexit and

engaging with the Labour Party and my party and the nationalists trying

to form a form of Brexit which is a compromise which keeps the good

elements of the European Union, she can make some progress. OK. How

should she change her approach to Brexit if at all? Well there are

these jargon words about hard and soft Brexit. What I think she has to

do or acknowledge that pulling out of the customs union is completely

insane. Very damaging. It's particularly damaging to Ireland

which is at centre of attention. It is perfectly possible to stay within

the single market. To keep all the been fits of that. It's possible to

have a degree of management of migration if that's a central issue.

Countries like Switzerland do it. So that's the kind of compromise she

should be looking at. Do you agree? I don't agree with Vince. I don't

think it will be the catastrophe that he sees. Do you think that is a

message from some of the electorate saying we didn't like your version

of Brexit? We don't know why people vote. People voted on all sorts of

issues and Corbyn as I understand the Labour Party's position on

Brexit isn't that different from ours. I keep hearing Conservatives

say that. There are some difference. John McDonnell himself said we're

leaving the single market. He said that yesterday. Could the Brexit

question be reopened? It will have to be reopened. We talked about

arithmetic in the House of Commons and legislation will have to go

through the House of Commons. We don't know what the mood of the

House will be and what the whipping arrangements will be. Clearly,

that's a matter of debate, but I suspect it won't be that different.

I think that Brexit is on track and I think we will get Brexit. The

central issue here. We've had three divisive elections in two years. In

Scotland they have had four election ins three years. The public are

fed-up. They want the political class to sort this out and the last

thing we need is a period of upheaval and new elections. That's a

no, no and that's why Theresa May, for the moment, has to stay put and

organise a stable administration and engage with other parties and listen

to the public and produce a new style of politics which very hadn't

had for a long time. OK. Critically, they will have to listen because

this is a hole new style of politics and every has to be on the table.

Does Theresa May know how to listen? I think she will be a capable Prime

Minister. I think we will be able to have a stable Government. Judging on

the record now? We have 318 MPs which is more than SNP, Labour and

liberals put together and we are in a position where we can govern the

country. Let's have some views on Theresa May and her character and

whether you think she will have to change her approach or listen, what

do you say? We're hearing from different MPs about Brexit and what

their positions are, but I don't think many MPs have today said that

they there should be a coalition and people should come together and make

an agreement. There was a hung parliament which means that there

are people of the UK are not completely sure of what their own

position on Brexit is and that needs to be reflected by the attitude the

Government takes. I mean, that's a really good point. A number of

people have suggested some kind of cross party Brexit committee. We

already have a Brexit Select Committee. Is there a possibility of

something bigger involving more people that would reflect the

population more accurately? No, I think that approach is necessary.

The details are not central whether it is done through a Select

Committee or the parties putting people forward or whether you have

some citizens involved. I mean that's detail. But the key point of

the Prime Minister and her Government now having to engage with

other parties and the rest of the UK, very clearly, to form a

compromise approach to Brexit, that's now what has to happen. This

isn't new. Just before Christmas the Scottish Government put forward a

pan UK compromise document to put independence to one side, to look at

a document with, you know, remaining members of the single market of the

that's the kind of thing we need to get behind and have a committee of

experts of the that's something we did from across the political

boundaries. Would you support something like that? So any the

Government does will have to go through that Parliament and Vince

knows being a Parliamentarian for a long time, that getting legislation

through Parliament involves compromise and debate and given the

numbers, I imagine that there will be debate. There will be a degree of

discussion about what we do. The Great Repeal Bill isn't going to

involve much repealing. That's the bottom line. It was never about

repealing, it was about downloading European legislation. This was

ill-defined of the a legacy of vote Leave, a legacy of vote Leave. Hear

me out for change. There was a blank piece of paper. Now as a blank piece

of paper it is our responsibility to fill in the blanks that vote Leave

left. That means that membership of the single marred set has to be open

and that's something that is incumbent on all of us to work

across political boundaries. More views from here. It's refreshing to

hear unity coming through about how we can move forward. Did you hear

unity there? The whole thing so far has been about political positioning

and winning and losing etcetera, etcetera, whereas a nation we need

to come together and sort this out and it is this political

childishness where people are squabbling left, right and centre

and trying to position themselves into the best possible position,

turning from this position to another position. We just heard

Chuka Umunna talking about the same thing, he was looking for another

job again. It is the same positionment we need to move forward

and sort this out as a nation. As grown-ups? As grown-ups, that's all

you ever hear. So speaks a Conservative voter. Thank you very

much, gentlemen. Thank you for coming on the programme.

David Mondal was reappointed Scottish Secretary yesterday.

Previously he was the only Scottish MP. He has been speaking the last

few minutes. Obviously it is a big change for me. I have spent 12 years

in which I have had to agree with myself, now we have some colleagues.

We will be looking to make sure that our influence is felt. We played a

significant part in ensuring that there is a Conservative minority

government after this general election, with a fantastic result in

Scotland, winning all of those seats, getting second in the popular

vote and putting our vote up so significantly. But what we will want

to do is to get the best arrangements for Scotland and indeed

the whole of the UK in Brexit and a whole range of other issues. David

Russell says, Labour showing they are irresponsible attempting to cash

Definitely. It was the result almost nobody predicted, including many

within Labour. A big part of the party's success has been put down to

younger voters turning out, mobilised by a sense that their

voices have not been heard in previous elections. A powerful

social media campaign and by support of Jeremy Corbyn as leader from

various artists including this crime for Corbyn movement. -- grime for

Corbyn movement. Let me introduce you to Bafta

winning actor and rapper Adam Deacon, who met Jeremy Corbyn last

year. He watched a play which Adam was performing in. You are part of

the Grime4Corbyn campaign. Hello, Becker. And we have MC Saskilla, who

headlined the Grime4Corbyn concert in London last week. We don't yet

have the actual specific figures for voter turnout of 18-24 -year-old is.

We know 1.5 million 18 to 24-year-olds registered to vote. How

much of the difference do you think that made for Labour? I think it

must have made a massive difference. Because young people care about

politics. There is a mess out there that people are not interested, but

if you give them a chance they care about what is going on. It is great

that young people came out and made their voice heard. I agree, I think

there is something exceptional about the selection in terms of the sheer

amount of Indonesia is that you saw from young voters and the amount

that came out to register. That has to do with Jeremy Corbyn as a

candidate and the kind of Labour Party that he is running, it has

offered young people a programme that they can believe in. How old

are you? I am 25. OK, what about yourself, in terms of Jeremy Corbyn

managing to engage so many younger people? He has done something that

no politician has done before, which is actually genuinely care. It seems

a cliche, but he genuinely does care. He seems as though he's from a

similar background. He's always fighting for the underprivileged,

that is the background of grime as a whole. He is actually from a

middle-class background. That's just human nature, caring, it is

something that he is doing. You can see the people that are fake and the

people who are saying staff for the sake of saying it. That's

interesting, you think younger people have more of a... I was going

to say every word then, more of a detector for those are authentic to

those who are not. Theresa mate does not care about the underprivileged,

she doesn't care about nobody. Jeremy Corbyn has fought for causes,

he has been fighting for apartheid, he has fought for injustices. We can

see from the internet generation, social media, we can see that.

Theresa May said on the steps of Downing Street, when she became

Prime Minister she talked about the underprivileged, those who have a

sense of burning injustice. If she could tell me what Lidl looks like,

I would have thought she was insane, I'll tell you that right now! People

can see through things, especially young people, they can spot that

fate is. I think Germany Corbyn... Whatever his policies are about

coming he cares. You can sense that from him. You can really read that.

Has Jeremy Corbyn ever been to Lidl, do you think" I reckon a lot of

people who work for him, and I reckon when he goes to Arsenal he

has taken Lidl food from the people sitting next to him in this land is.

But he hasn't been himself? Why not? He is a down-to-earth guy. It is

incredibly refreshing to see you guys, especially bringing about an

increase in voter turnout. I think regardless of where you sit on the

political spectrum, PUA Conservative, Labour, Lib Dem,

green, to see young people interested is a great thing for a

democracy. I love what Jeremy Corbyn dead. He made me and people I know

feel like our voice actually matters -- I love what Jeremy Corbyn did. I

don't feel like there is a hung parliament because of us, but maybe

if some of us didn't vote then it... How much of it is down to Jeremy

Corbyn the man or his policies? The kind of things he put forward in the

manifesto? His manifesto related to me as I agreed with. A lot of it was

on my Twitter. Seeing him there, and Grime4Corbyn was a winner for me,

honestly. I think it was a bit of both. I spoke to Jeremy Corbyn, the

date before the election was called. He seemed like such a genuine

person, genuinely caring for the people. Theresa May's thing about

health for workers, it seemed so random. You don't believe her? No,

and I think when Jeremy Corbyn is trying to be for the people, he is

trying to be for everybody, not just the people he feels like being four.

The Grime4Corbyn made it more aggression for young people to say,

OK, let's see what it's about and go out there and actually vote and it

obviously worked. You had become interested and engaged in politics

because of Jeremy Corbyn? Yes, because... This is the first time I

have voted, and Jeremy Corbyn was something different in this country.
