:01:45. > :01:47.A 65-strong group of Conservative MPs has questioned the Chancellor's
:01:48. > :01:50.future after his latest warning about leaving the European Union.
:01:51. > :01:54.George Osborne said an emergency Budget would be needed to fix
:01:55. > :01:59.what he called a ?30 billion black hole in the UK's finances.
:02:00. > :02:03.Mr Osborne said that would mean tax rises such as a 2p increase
:02:04. > :02:09.And there'd be ?15 billion of spending cuts that
:02:10. > :02:15.The Tory MPs say they would vote against such a Budget,
:02:16. > :02:16.making the Chancellor's position "untenable".
:02:17. > :02:29.Here's our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg.
:02:30. > :02:38.On land and almost sea, the referendum clashes are in full flow.
:02:39. > :02:46.And strange. Bob Geldof taking Nigel Farage on the Thames! Nigel, stop
:02:47. > :02:53.telling lies! It's all right for millionaires! Crowds and campaigners
:02:54. > :02:57.shouting the odds, too. You'll be more used to this. The Chancellor
:02:58. > :03:02.with a man who used to do his job for Labour, claiming if you voted to
:03:03. > :03:05.leave, a sudden deterioration in the country's anchor balance would mean
:03:06. > :03:12.whopping tax rises and cuts. -- bank balance. You've got a situation
:03:13. > :03:16.today when you've got a Conservative Chancellor and a Labour Chancellor
:03:17. > :03:19.telling people there will be a bit, in the public finances, that you
:03:20. > :03:22.would have to raise taxes and cut spending, and I tell you, there's
:03:23. > :03:28.only one thing worse than passing a Budget like that, it's not passing a
:03:29. > :03:33.Budget to solve the situation and sending the economy into a tailspin.
:03:34. > :03:41.But there's been furious backlash from those wanting out. They say he
:03:42. > :03:46.has gone too far. When you have today even the Leave campaign saying
:03:47. > :03:49.there will be an economic consequence, people need to know
:03:50. > :03:54.that before they passed that -- cast their vote. He claims he would have
:03:55. > :04:00.no choice but to deliver such bad news. Because he would have to fail
:04:01. > :04:04.a ?30 billion -- fill a ?30 billion hole in the books. But the chances
:04:05. > :04:08.of George Osborne standing on the steps with a Budget like that are
:04:09. > :04:12.slim. It would be almost impossible to get the support. But the message
:04:13. > :04:17.that number 11 wants to give is that the country votes to leave the EU,
:04:18. > :04:21.we will all pay one way or another. There are nearly 70 Tories who want
:04:22. > :04:27.out of the EU and they have claimed they will do fine. One MP told me,
:04:28. > :04:31.smart guy, stupid move. The Leave campaigners haven't made their views
:04:32. > :04:34.public but somewhat incredulous. This is no longer just about the
:04:35. > :04:39.referendum but George Osborne's authority, too. You have a chance
:04:40. > :04:44.coming out and irresponsibly trying to scare the public and even the
:04:45. > :04:47.markets. That is utterly wrong, I've never seen anything like it in 24
:04:48. > :04:51.years and he needs to think again and stop this nonsense at once. You
:04:52. > :04:56.are saying if he carried on like this, you would have to go? This is
:04:57. > :05:00.irresponsible. What is responsible is for a Chancellor to say, no
:05:01. > :05:04.matter what happens, Britain is good enough to forge its way. But they
:05:05. > :05:09.could be huge turbulence if we vote to leave. The outcome pay have
:05:10. > :05:17.talked about five new laws they would campaign for. It is almost
:05:18. > :05:21.like an alternative mini manifesto. This campaign has gone way beyond
:05:22. > :05:25.the ordinary, far past the usual insults and intrigue of politics,
:05:26. > :05:29.and now with a significant chunk of Tory MPs saying if the country votes
:05:30. > :05:34.out, they would try to oust George Osborne, it feels like there's a
:05:35. > :05:37.coup in waiting. The police even got involved as campaigns weren't just
:05:38. > :05:41.messing around on the river, but taking each other on. There is
:05:42. > :05:43.little sign of apathy is this decision approaches. Every awareness
:05:44. > :05:46.of how much it counts. Our economics editor,
:05:47. > :05:51.Kamal Amed, is here. Would the Chancellor really go ahead
:05:52. > :06:03.with this type of Budget? Well, they certainly try to make it
:06:04. > :06:08.look like a Budget. This is the document the Remain campaign brought
:06:09. > :06:12.out today. This is the active Budget from earlier in the year. This,
:06:13. > :06:15.admittedly, more flimsy. Economists do believe in the short-term the
:06:16. > :06:21.British economy would take a hit and that could affect the public
:06:22. > :06:25.finances and leaves a shortfall of about ?30 billion by 2020. Would any
:06:26. > :06:30.Budget need to be this brutal war in one go? Very unlikely. He could
:06:31. > :06:36.smooth borrowing, he could push tax rises into the future and public
:06:37. > :06:40.spending cuts as well. I think George Osborne knows he's in an
:06:41. > :06:44.utterly fierce fight. People close to him have told me this is all
:06:45. > :06:48.about undecided voters, the war over the wavering. They will choose and
:06:49. > :06:53.they will be the ones who make the decision on the joke -- June 23 and
:06:54. > :06:57.it's become very clear that those around George Osborne believe that
:06:58. > :06:58.the moment the economic argument is not cutting through to enough
:06:59. > :07:01.voters. Thank you. We know immigration is a big issue
:07:02. > :07:04.in the referendum debate, and today the Home Secretary,
:07:05. > :07:07.Theresa May, has told the BBC that there should be a look
:07:08. > :07:09.at further reforms in the free movement of people if Britain
:07:10. > :07:12.votes to stay in the EU. Speaking exclusively
:07:13. > :07:14.to our political editor Laura Kuenssberg, Ms May explained
:07:15. > :07:16.how she decided to back This is the latest in Laura's
:07:17. > :07:21.interviews with key figures In a world of loudmouths,
:07:22. > :07:30.she is a quiet politician. Don't mistake that for having
:07:31. > :07:33.nothing to say. For a while on the EU, though,
:07:34. > :07:36.it was unclear where Theresa May would pin her colours,
:07:37. > :07:38.which way she would go. Well, there were plenty of voices
:07:39. > :07:45.suggesting what I should do in this. Of course there were quite a lot
:07:46. > :07:48.of voices suggesting I should go But as I say, I approached this
:07:49. > :07:52.decision in the way I approach other Look at the facts
:07:53. > :07:58.and come to a view. When I put all that together
:07:59. > :08:01.and when I think about the potential risk to jobs, the uncertainties
:08:02. > :08:04.for our economy if we were to leave the European Union,
:08:05. > :08:08.when I think about the security, the discussions I've had
:08:09. > :08:10.within the EU, because I do believe But this campaign is about
:08:11. > :08:16.immigration as well. As Home Secretary,
:08:17. > :08:19.her responsibility. I completely understand why people
:08:20. > :08:22.are concerned about immigration. There is no silver bullet,
:08:23. > :08:25.there is no one thing you can do that is suddenly going to deal
:08:26. > :08:28.with all the problems people That includes leaving the EU,
:08:29. > :08:33.that is not a single But there is one big truth, though,
:08:34. > :08:38.here, which is as long as we are in the EU we cannot cap
:08:39. > :08:41.the numbers of people coming in here from other
:08:42. > :08:44.countries in Europe? There are some changes coming up
:08:45. > :08:47.in free movement rules. We should look at further reform
:08:48. > :08:50.in the future. What would you say to your
:08:51. > :08:52.colleagues who have been campaigning It is understandable that people
:08:53. > :08:59.feel very passionately about it. But when you said you wanted
:09:00. > :09:03.a serious and mature debate, it sounded a bit like you were telling
:09:04. > :09:06.them to grow up. No, what I was doing was setting
:09:07. > :09:10.out my approach to this campaign. She has stayed above the fray,
:09:11. > :09:13.but what happens after all these Do you think whatever happens,
:09:14. > :09:22.David Cameron will still be in a job Would you ever consider
:09:23. > :09:27.running for the job? Look, David I hope is going
:09:28. > :09:30.to carry on until 2020. As I said, there is no vacancy,
:09:31. > :09:36.Laura. Look, whatever I say
:09:37. > :09:42.to you is going to be taken this way There is no vacancy,
:09:43. > :09:45.I hope David is going to continue With a referendum so close,
:09:46. > :09:51.that is not clear at all. The billionaire businessman
:09:52. > :10:00.Sir Philip Green has apologised to staff of the collapsed retailer
:10:01. > :10:04.BHS, which he sold for ?1 last year. Referring to the company's massive,
:10:05. > :10:15.?500 million pension deficit, There were tense exchanges
:10:16. > :10:22.throughout the hearing, as our business editor,
:10:23. > :10:25.Simon Jack, reports. Putting together the pieces
:10:26. > :10:27.of a high-street failure. The person who knows how
:10:28. > :10:30.they all fit arrived for his moment 13 months later it collapsed
:10:31. > :10:37.and today he apologised. It didn't need to be like this
:10:38. > :10:40.and I just want to apologise to all the BHS people who have
:10:41. > :10:43.been involved in this, who are involved, and I hope that
:10:44. > :10:46.by the end of the morning they will hear everything and we can
:10:47. > :10:49.find some sensible solutions He sold the chain for just ?1
:10:50. > :10:55.to this man, Dominic Chappell, a former bankrupt with
:10:56. > :10:57.no retail experience. Sir Philip himself set out one
:10:58. > :11:01.of the key questions. Did we go out of our way
:11:02. > :11:05.intentionally to find somebody, anybody, in this case Chappell,
:11:06. > :11:10.to find somebody to end up I think hopefully three hours in,
:11:11. > :11:20.or however long it is, or three-and-a-half hours in,
:11:21. > :11:22.whatever it is, you can accept During a sometimes testy encounter
:11:23. > :11:29.he tried hard to control his temper Sir, do you mind not looking at me
:11:30. > :11:34.like that all the time? You just wanted to stare at me,
:11:35. > :11:41.it's just uncomfortable. Put your glasses back on, you look
:11:42. > :11:44.better with your glasses on. I don't like the way
:11:45. > :11:46.you are asking me the question. I am terribly sorry,
:11:47. > :11:49.I will rephrase it. Which bit of don't remember
:11:50. > :11:53.is difficult for you to listen to? He then blamed his own
:11:54. > :12:03.advisers on Sachs. If Mr Chappell had not passed
:12:04. > :12:05.Goldman Sachs' sniff test of credibility,
:12:06. > :12:07.would you have done a deal with him? We wouldn't be sitting
:12:08. > :12:09.here, absolutely not. 20,000 pensioners are facing cuts
:12:10. > :12:11.to their retirement income. It is resolvable, sortable,
:12:12. > :12:17.we will sort it, we will find a solution and I am going to give
:12:18. > :12:21.an assurance to the 20,000 pensioners that I am
:12:22. > :12:24.there to sort this. There wasn't enough detail
:12:25. > :12:26.today to reassure scheme I think the right thing to do
:12:27. > :12:33.would be to make sure that no one is any worse off
:12:34. > :12:36.because of the collapse of BHS. He says he has an affinity
:12:37. > :12:40.with the company after 15 years. Let's hope he has got
:12:41. > :12:42.a good moral compass, he's got the money to do it,
:12:43. > :12:45.and look after these Sir Philip's retail fortune is now
:12:46. > :12:52.in his wide's Monaco bank account and the committee
:12:53. > :12:55.wanted to know why there? Somebody suggested it and we went
:12:56. > :12:58.there, I wanted to put my children in school somewhere,
:12:59. > :13:02.two or three choices. We went there, had
:13:03. > :13:04.a look, met the people When did you find out
:13:05. > :13:11.that it had tax advantages? I think it is known,
:13:12. > :13:14.I don't think that's a secret. Sir Philip will be hoping he can
:13:15. > :13:17.disappear back there now, but there are still some pieces
:13:18. > :13:24.missing from this puzzle. A brief look at some of the day's

:20:24. > :20:26.qualified the minute you win a game, and they have won one

:21:23. > :21:32.And now it is time for the web. On a cloudy and wet is not the headline
:21:33. > :21:34.you want for June in Scotland. That is what you got my relentless rain
