11/06/2017 Breakfast

This is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Ben Thompson.

Downing Street and the Democratic Unionist Party say no final deal has

yet been reached over a parliamentary pact.

Late last night, both parties said talks will continue next week

and that the detail of an agreement is still to be determined.

Boris Johnson has rejected newspaper reports of a leadership bid,

The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, says he's ready for another

General Election, insisting he can still become Prime Minister.

We will be live in Westminster and Belfast very shortly.

Pictures of the fake explosive belts worn by the London Bridge attackers

are released by police, as we hear from one of the first

Richard Hammond is recovering in hospital after the TV presenter's

car crashed in Switzerland. In sport, Scotland are denied

victory in their World Cup Qualifier Two superb free-kicks looked to have

won it for the scots, only for Harry Kane

to equalise late on. And Phil has the weather. Hello.

Good morning. Not a bad start to the day in Norfolk. Can we keep it

going? It will eventually be a day of sunny spells and showers. I will

have the full forecast in 15 minutes. Thank you very much.

The Democratic Unionist Party says it has had "positive talks" over

a possible deal to support a Conservative minority government,

but that no final agreement has yet been reached.

Yesterday, a statement from Downing Street suggested

that the DUP had agreed in principle to support Theresa May

with the details to be put to the Cabinet tomorrow.

Late last night, both the Tories and the Democratic Unionists

released statements revealing that further discussions will take place

Let's speak to our political correspondent, Leila Nathoo.

Can you explain this for us? It is interesting timing. First we get a

statement saying the deal has been done. Then a statement saying not

quite, more details next week. You are right. There was some confusion

last night about the status of the talks between Downing Street and the

DUP. Early in the night we had a meeting from Downing Street where

they said they agreed with DUP to support the Conservative government.

Just a few hours later, we had another statement from Downing

Street and a statement from the DUP saying actually these talks and the

deal had yet to be finalised and talks are ongoing and will resume

next week. Clearly, there is some confusion about how far these talks

had gone. Of course, what this is all about is a confidence and supply

agreement, that is what Downing Street initially referred to,

meaning the DUP would support the government on key votes like the

budget and no-confidence votes. In other areas it would be decided on a

vote by vote basis. As yet, there is no further update. Talks are ongoing

between the DUP and the Conservatives to form this crucial

majority. That is the confusion. What about the pressure on Theresa

May that did not let up over the weekend? Some papers are suggesting

Boris Johnson could be trying to oust her. He says that is not true,

let us get on with the job. But the pressure continues. This is not

going away. Until this agreement is set in stone with the DUP, they will

be rumours around about potential leadership bids. Boris Johnson has

always been in the frame for that. You mentioned newspaper reports

saying he has support from senior cabinet ministers for his bid. He is

clear that is not the case and 1% backs Theresa May. And Jeremy

Corbyn. We mentioned how he could end up at Number 10 in another

general election. Is their truth to this? Jeremy Corbyn is feeling

confident with his election result. He has said Labour is ready to

govern as a minority. He is ready to keep up the pressure on the Prime

Minister, saying he could vote down the Queen's Speech, the programme

for government set out in the coming weeks. What will be announced in the

Queen's Speech will depend on any agreement between the DUP and the

Conservatives. Labour will potentially vote that down to be

Jeremy Corbyn is clearly very confident. A lot is still at play.

Jeremy Corbyn still sees a role for him and his party. Good to talk to

you and get your opinion. She was live from Westminster.

The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, and the Defence Secretary,

Michael Fallon, will both be on the Andrew Marr Show

That is nine o'clock on BBC One, of course.

Scotland Yard has released pictures of the fake suicide belts worn

The officer leading the investigation says it's

the first time he's seen the tactic used in the UK.

Last night, a week on from the attack, people visited bars

and restaurants in the area in a show of unity and resilience.

Designed to create maximum fear, these are the fake explosive belts

worn by the three attackers. They are actually disposable water

bottles covered in masking tape, but police said anyone who saw them on

the night would believe they were real. They believe they wanted to

create a siege operation with them. Police spoke to 262 people from 90

different countries, 78 described as significant witnesses. Three people

were killed as the attackers drove across London Bridge, five stabbed

to death in Borough Market. They were remembered last night. In a

show of defiance, people flocked to the bars and restaurants. People

reflect on it. We have to do that. But it does not stop me from coming

out at all. We cannot not think about what happened. I was wondering

about what the mood would be like, but it is really celebratory and

find. We stick together. That is what we do. It is what London is

about. In pubs, people are being told to donate to the victims of the

Manchester and London attacks. It is absolutely right on the anniversary

of what happened last weekend, the tragic events, Londoners can go out

and do what Londoners do. Repairs are continuing to buildings damaged

by the killers, but the cordons have been lifted and Southwark Cathedral

has been reopened. At around 8:50, we'll be speaking

to a former policeman who rushed to the aid of people on the bridge

when the attack happened. Three men have been arrested

after an easyJet flight to Stansted was diverted because of

suspicious behaviour. The plane, which was flying

from Slovenia, made an unplanned landing in Germany, with passengers

evacuated down emergency slides. A backpack belonging to one

of the men was blown up by police. The TV presenter, Richard Hammond,

has been treated for a fractured knee after crashing a car

while filming for his new motoring He was driving an electric supercar

in Switzerland when it left the road The 47-year-old, who suffered brain

injuries in a crash while filming Top Gear 11 years ago,

got out of the vehicle before it His co-host, Jeremy Clarkson,

tweeted that it was the "biggest" and "most frightening"

crash he'd seen. Competitors in a yacht race

from Plymouth to the United States have been rescued after their boats

were damaged in a severe storm One of them sank and

two were abandoned. Close to safety, after

surviving what's been called This is the moment a 73-year-old

yachtsman was rescued by a luxury He'd been taking part

in a transatlantic race But across the Atlantic,

they hit 15 metre waves Tamarind, the boat rescued

by the liner, was just one of them. A boat called Happy suffered

a damaged mast and another, Other ships, like this research

vessel, also diverted to help, co-ordinated by the

Canadian military. With cases like this, that far out

in the middle of the Atlantic, they always take a day or more.

Even those who run the race were surprised by the conditions.

I've been involved with this race for 25 years.

And I must say, we've never had this kind of depression.

With these conditions, I can't remember them,

so it's unusual, it's extreme, but it does happen in the North

Now safely on board and heading to Halifax in Canada,

at least one yachtsman will enjoy an easier journey,

according to the captain of the liner.

And I think he will have a much more leisurely and luxury transit

to the other side of the Atlantic than he would have done

Despite the damage, organisers have said the race will go on.

Good morning. You are watching BBC Breakfast. The front pages. A lot to

discuss following the election last week on Thursday. The front page of

the Mail on Sunday. Boris Johnson launching a bid to be Prime Minister

as May clings on. It was denied furiously by Boris Johnson already

saying he has no such plans and is fully supporting the Prime Minister.

The same story on the front of the Sunday Times. Five cabinet ministers

urge Boris Johnson to topple the reason may. And they are talking

about the outcome of Brexit. -- Theresa May. Negotiations are

expected to begin within the week. People are demanding a softer Brexit

for business. That could be good news for businesses who have been

concerned about the impacts on the market and trade deals coming up

with the EU. In office but not in power, that is how the Sunday

Telegraph describes it today. They also detailed the events in Downing

Street over the last couple of days, in particular, the resignations of

the Prime Minister's closest advisers, Nick Timothy and Fiona

Hill, who many in the party blamed for the disastrous campaign. It is

worth remembering that she did increase the amount of people voting

for her, but many more went around this time because of high numbers of

people voting in the collapse of the UKIP vote. We will get to that later

on. Some of those details in the Observer. That is the headline. A

plan to drop hard Brexit plans. And they are talking about the coalition

with DUP and what it could mean for the party. Some Tories are concerned

it could damage the brand they have spent years trying to detoxify. The

front pages. Richard Hammond. Today. He was involved in another crash.

This one looks absolutely horrific. He was in an electric supercar. Here

he is at the bottom. It is ?18 million electric Rimac being charged

in this car. --A ?2 million. Luckily he was entirely unheard. He had a

crash in 2006 which left him in a coma. All sorts of issues there.

This time he was almost completely unscathed. It looks absolutely

horrific, the aftermath of that incident. 11 years! Where does the

time go! This is Breakfast. The main stories. The DUP says it has had

positive talks over a possible deal to support a Tory government, but

the details are yet to be finalised. Scotland Yard has released images of

the fake explosives worn by the man who carried out the London Bridge

attack last week. Here's Phil with a look

at this morning's weather. If that is the weather today, that

is promising. I am here, amid fantasy because I was just thinking

of how lovely it would either have bacon rolls and a cup of tea with

this view. Showers are also in the mix of what

will be a half decent day. Dominated by an area of low pressure that

brought wind from yesterday. Some of you got tied up with the old weather

front that was producing a miserable day for some. That is now way down

toward the south-east. Calling on behind, some areas are already

seeing a bit of shower activity. That goes for parts of Scotland and

Northern Ireland. A couple of showers elsewhere across northern

and western parts of the British Isles are, essentially, many of you

away from the centre of the low are off to a dry start. There is enough

about the old weather front here across the south-east for the odd

bit of rain that will not amount to much. If you have plans outside in

the south-eastern water, things will improve as the last of the cloud and

rain falls away towards the continent. As we get on into the

afternoon we begin to see how much blueberries on those charts. Not

politically, that is, it is just many showers across Scotland and

Northern Ireland. Would not be surprised if there was a rumble of

thunder as well. Hopefully the cloud stays good enough for the airshow at

Crossford. A decent day in the Midlands and all points south and

east. If you are out this evening, showers with you across and Northern

Ireland although many across England and Wales will have faded away by

this stage. We're not looking at a particular goldmine, given that all

breeze around that area is coming in from the south-west. Just a word to

the wise, I say breeze, the central goal of Scotland tomorrow morning

for the commute, some of the gusts of 35, 40 miles an hour or so on

what is going to be another breezy day in as we push that low pressure

across the top end of the British Isles, concentrating showers, less

intensely on Monday than on Sunday but elsewhere cloud around and also

a lot of dry weather. Not a bad start to the new week. Doctor

Richard there is 20 and the temperature is set to rise for many

as we get on through the week. -- top temperature there is 20.

When disaster hits the UK, one of the first images we often see

is of the emergency services rushing towards danger

Last week, during the terror attack on London Bridge,

Inspector Jim Cole was one of the first police officers

He's been talking to us about his experience.

As soon as the call came out the police station burst into life

because we had two shifts. They were changing over. So everybody just got

into any police vehicle that would work and off we all went. It was

almost pandemonium. People running. I could see somebody injured on the

floor by the pub on the corner. Fortunately I had a police medical

on board so I called the medic and I instructed him to go over to the

entrance to the bar, the bar Katzenjammer and set up a triage

there. At that point there were still many shots ringing out. I did

not know whether it was ours or the bad guys. And then a stream of

people came out of the market, running and screaming. We literally

pushed them into big basement of the pub. It seemed the safest place to

put a large volume of people at that time, out of harm 's way. I have

been a police officer for 18 years and it all just happened. It

happened automatically, really. There was no thought process going

on. It seems surreal in hindsight it almost feels like it was not real.

Amazing and moving testimony there. As we have heard this morning, the

Democratic Unionist party has said it has had positive talks. But no

final agreement has yet been reached. Both sides are working

towards a confidence and supply agreement. But how will that work?

Historically friends hoping to shape the future working together. Without

a Conservative MPs to form her own government, Theresa May has turned

to the Democratic Unionist party. She outlined her intentions straight

after the shock election result, to help regain her political balance.

We will continue to work with our friends and allies in the Democratic

Unionist party in particular. The D U P now has ten seats to use as a

powerbroker, to back Theresa May on key votes such as the Queen 's

speech and budget. Not as full coalition, but in a looser

agreement. That is prompting speculation about what the pro-

Brexit socially Conservative Party may want in return, cursing concern

among some Tory MPs, but not all. I don't think we will go backwards in

terms of social legislation. I think it is part of our DNA now and what

makes us the great country we are. I am sure the D U P understand that.

The balancing the interests of two parties could have an effect. I

cannot see how the Queen 's speech can be laden with interesting pieces

of legislation because many of them are going to be items which will

cause dispute within the Conservative Party and certainly

between the Conservatives and the D U P. So, the most unexpected result

of the election has been to make the job of governing here at heart than

ever. Let's turn our attention to

something entirely different. Some of the biggest names

from the sport of Triathlon will be swimming, cycling and running

their way around Leeds this afternoon as the city hosts the only

UK stop in this year's World Series. Among the elite competitors taking

part is 2013 World Champion Non Born in Swansea, Non

now lives in Leeds. And she's been showing Breakfast's

own keen triathlete, Louise, around one of her

favourite training routes . It is lovely to be on your home

turf stop where are we going? We will have our, and have a blog

around the area. A few hills, it is part of our Monday loop. A small

part of it. Shall I follow you? # I wanted to follow when she goes # I

want to let it take control. Do you just go as fast as you can? Yeah. I

love it will --. This has not been my most consistent time. We have had

a few bumps in the road. I am definitely not where I would love to

be. But, at the same time, I did well in China and Japan and there

were many positives to be taken from that. I am not too worried. This is

a full-time job, isn't it? Yeah, it really is. The life of a triathlete

is quiet when you are training. You get to a point in the middle of a

competition where you wonder why you are doing this? Yes. At most races

you start to wonder why you are doing this to yourself. Generally

one hour before the race when the tension is building and you are

apprehensive. You start to question yourself and your life choices. Your

boyfriend? Partner sounds old. Yes, boyfriend. What does he think of the

weather here? He was initially shocked at how we did was. He's

quite disappointed that his Australian accent has diminished but

he loves the terrain. It is beautiful, you cannot deny that. So

you were living together with Vicki. She moved away. Do you miss? Yes. I

miss her a lot. We were so comfortable training together,

living together. You get to know someone really well and, I don't

like to say I have gotten used to it because it would always be wonderful

if she came back. Tell me about your aims for leads. Do you want to smash

it? Always. I was disappointed in the race last year. I had possibly

the worst swim of my career so hopefully we have addressed that and

fingers crossed it will not happen again. In front of a home crowd

makes it much more special. You do want to it for your home crowd. You

want to give the British fans a win. We are nearly there. Non, thank you

so much. I'm glad I could show you around. Thank you for coming. How me

more miles to you still have a head? -- how many more miles to you still

have to go? No, not today. I am worn out watching that.

You can watch all the action from the Triathlon World Series

in Leeds from one o'clock this afternoon on BBC2.

We still do not know all the details about how Theresa May's new

government will operate but so far one of the biggest changes has been

behind-the-scenes. Two of her closest advisers have quit and pave

the way free new chief of staff at Number 10. The BBC understands that

Mrs May was warned that she faced a leadership challenge unless she

sacked Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy. What impact will the to have an

Theresa May? We're joined now by the managing editor of the Spectator and

a former speech writer for Michael Gove. Thank you for joining us early

on this Sunday morning. Can you give us a sense of how sick you using the

position of Theresa May is in Number 10. Not at all. The resignation of

Timothy and Hill yesterday proved that the Cabinet is in charge.

Theresa May is in office, but not in power. I think what we will see is

the Cabinet asserting their authority, the party asserting there

as well an Theresa May will effectively need to play ball with

them if she wants to keep her job. These two people, they would not

have been widely known to people generally, to people involved in the

world of objects that may be different. Without them, does it

make her more vulnerable and as a personality, how does this affect

the way she operates government? She has been dependent on both of these

people at the Home Office for a period and in Number 10. I think

whether she can survive without them is open to question. She has

appointed a new chief of staff now, a former MP, who was one until

Thursday, Gavin Barwell. Without her two chief of staffs there who guided

her on policy, guided her press coverage, she is going to be in a

sticky situation, I believe. Watching that speech on Friday when

she returned from seeing the Queen, it was extraordinary. For many

people was as if the election had not happened. Do you think we will

need to see a change in the way she approaches? Something more honest

and says that she acknowledges, perhaps, that things went wrong? One

of the strangest things about the election campaign was that the

public got to know her quite well and found her to be a little

defensive, a little brittle and not really that open. She did not do a

TV debate and in press conferences and interviews that she came across

as irritable. And we had a bizarre sight on Friday which was her giving

a victory speech, as such, or as if she had won a landslide when they

did not happen. She needs to be more open and more collegiate with her

colleagues. A little warmer, really, if she is to survive. Other people

have said that Nick Timothy was one of the great progressive brain is

driving forward new and innovative policy thinking Number 10 and,

particularly, his grip on the challenges faced by this country

when it comes to big issues like social care and how we fund it. Was

it was about the policy itself and more about the way the message was

sent and conveyed? To be honest, I think that was a terrible policy. So

it could not have been sold very easily at all. However you do that.

I do think the problem with the manifesto, which, obviously, Nick

Timothy co-authored, is that it basically came across as the Tory

party, the nasty party that we used to be warned about, the dementia

tax, the removal of lunches from children, from free school lunches.

I think I really, there were structural problems and that

manifesto. In terms of presentation, Theresa May has a long way to go and

I'm not really convinced she has it in her. I wonder if she really wants

to be there. That is another question as well. It was said that

she has a great sense of public service. Do you think that is why

she is determined to carry on? Of course, inevitably, the Sunday

papers are now full of speculation about whether there will be a

leadership challenge. Boris Johnson has denied any plans, we would

expect him to do that. What is your reading of the situation? I think it

hangs in the balance. We will probably find out over the next two

or three days whether or not there are a group of MPs coalescing around

Boris. I think he is the obvious alternative. My understanding is

that the one thing the Cabinet and, in fact, all the Tory MPs are afraid

of is another election in autumn they really worry at this point that

they may lose. Jeremy Corbyn very much has momentum and is Theresa May

doesn't step aside and let someone else in, then it looks as if they

may have defied Jeremy Corbyn again and, this time, they may not win.

Thank you very much. The Sunday Mirror has an interview with Jeremy

Corbyn today saying he was preparing for another election. We will talk

to Alistair Campbell, a former labour politician later on. Just

approaching 630. Stay with us. The lines are up next. -- headlines are

up next. This is Breakfast,

with Rachel Burden and Ben Thompson. Coming up before 7am,

John has a round-up of the sports news and Phil will be

here with the weather. But first, a summary of this

morning's main news. The DUP says it has had "positive

talks" over a possible deal to support a Conservative

minority government, but that no final agreement

has yet been reached. Discussions are set

to continue in the week. John Campbell is our

Northern Ireland economics As we have heard overnight,

negotiations continued. They will resume on Monday. What will be the

next sticking point? In terms of what the DUP want, they will want

some financial package. More money for infrastructure here. We saw back

in 2015 it looked like there could be a hung parliament at that time

and the DUP produced a document to say what they wanted to give support

to the Conservatives or Labour. It was about that financial package. In

terms of policies the Conservatives have that DUP would not support,

they don't want more austerity. They say they will not support the ending

of the triple lock and the state pension. They want the Winter Fuel

Allowance. These things the Conservatives can put into the

Queen's Speech. There has been a lot of chat about the DUP social

policies. They don't back extending gay marriage and abortion rights to

Northern Ireland. I do think that will feature at all. Those are

devolved matters to Northern Ireland. They will say don't get

involved. They are unlikely to push that agenda. Another interesting

point will be around Brexit. Time and again, the Prime Minister has

said no deal is better than a bad deal. She is prepared to crash out

of the EU with no transition arrangements. The DUP do not share

that vision as they don't want a border a long Ireland. They also

don't want special status in Ireland. They do want do not see

more passport checks in Ireland. Those are the main issues. Brexit,

austerity, and what sort of financial package the Conservatives

can give the DUP? Back in 2015 with the potential hung parliament, there

was talk DUP would look for a package worth about ?1 billion, and

it was denied at the time. I would not be surprised if we saw something

that would be in that ballpark. A brief word, that is obviously what

the DUP and Tories will contend with. I wonder how it is going down

politically with the other parties. The big issue is the Good Friday

Agreement which depends on impartiality. It says the government

is supposed to act with rigourous impartiality. The question is how

can the Conservatives be seen to be acting with rigourous impartiality

when they are now so dependent on the DUP? Let's remember, talks are

due to get under way on Monday. The second estate this post to get those

talks. The chair cannot be impartial when they rely on the DUP. -- is

supposed to chair those talks. Thank you.

Good morning. It is time for sport. So much to talk about. A brilliant

and packed weekend. The French Open. A lot of rugby. I could talk about

it all morning. No pressure. I think we will start with the football.

After the buildup, if you weren't watching the match with Scotland and

England in the qualifying match, for the World Cup, it all happened at

the end. Three goals in six minutes to turn the game. We will show you

them. Scotland thought they had an incredible victory. Harry Kane

equalised later on. And we will show you those goals now, shall we?

It was a thrilling finish at Hampden Park.

Scotland looked as though they'd snatched victory only

England remain top but for Scotland, well, I think the fans expressions

In the end, it was heartbreak for Scotland. From joy to despair,

denied a famous and incredible victory by England. The newest

instalment of international football's Allders rivalry, one that

goes back to 1872, each encounter laced with anticipation. -- oldest.

Security was increased after recent terror attacks. There was a minute's

silence in memory of the victims before kick off. This was a match

Scotland had to win, something they had not done at home to England in

32 years and which looked unlikely as the visitors applied the

pressure. That pressure told after half-time, Alex Oxley javelin came

off the bench to make an immediate impact. -- Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Scotland were bruised, but not beaten. They equalised in the

closing stages. They were invigorated. The drama was far from

over. Three minutes later, unbelievably, in almost identical

fashion, Griffiths did it again, to send his fans and team into

dreamland. With three priceless points almost within grasp, the

celebrations came to an abrupt end, as Harry Kane had the final say, the

captain for the game for England. It is a huge moment for the team.

The questions around us centre on character, they centre on the

ability to withstand events that go against you. And, umm, yeah, that is

what we have to show. We have to be 18 that I never beaten.

-- 18. That was Colin's best ever free kick and the second-best ever

free kick. -- Scotland. I have never heard noise like that after that

before. I look at the players and say it is unfair that you have to

keep coming back and taking notes like that, but I will tell them to

do it. There was a late drama

for Northern Ireland, too. They boosted their chance

of reaching the finals when Leeds midfielder, Stuart Dallas,

scored the only goal of the game They're still second in their group,

behind World Champions, Germany, who are well placed

for a play-off spot. England's women stepped

up their preparations for Euro 2017 with a really impressive 4-0 win

away to Switzerland. Arsenal striker, Jodie

Taylor, scored twice. It's all good news all-round for the

home nations in Rugby Union. The Lions' victory on their

tour of New Zealand, there were wins for England

and Scotland, too. England's summer tour of Argentina

began in breath-taking style, Eddie Jones' side snatching a 38-34

victory when Denny Solomona went over with just a minute

left on the clock. It is great, the result. We were

disappointed with our performance. We gave them too many points. It

showed a can of team ethic today. Ten young guys came in in a

difficult situation chasing a game and they just did their job

brilliantly, which was fantastic. Gregor Townsend's reign as Scotland

coach started with a 34-13 win over Ross Ford ran in two of the Scots'

five tries in Singapore. A magnificent Ben Stokes' century

helped England to victory over There was a stunning piece

of fielding from Jason Roy, as the Aussies were restricted

to 277 at a rainy Edgbaston. England were chasing a reduced

target, and Stokes finished unbeaten on 102, as they won by 40 runs

and knocked out Australia. Beating a side like Australia again

when we have had nothing to gain is a big step forward for us because we

beat one of the better sides around the world. It is about competing in

future tournaments. We need to win games like this.

was better than any trophy, He equalled his hero's total of 65

pole positions ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix,

clocking the fastest qualifying lap ever seen in Montreal.

He was then stunned to be handed the helmet sent by Senna's family.

He said he was shaking at the honour.

And as we know, that is one of his all-time heroes. It says something

if he thinks that is better than every trophy he has ever gotten.

Incredible. Thank you for that. And that try against Argentina for

England was beautiful as well. The main news stories this morning. The

DUP says it has had positive talks to support a majority government,

but they are still too finalise details. And he met police give out

information about the attack last week.

Here's Phil with a look at this morning's weather.

Proof that we have actually got on to the weather on time for once.

Rather cloudy there in London this morning, in Westminster. Will it be

the same up and down the country? Phil promised us some sun a little

earlier, there is no sun there in Westminster but let's speak now and

hopefully will we will get some better news. I have indeed. A word

to the wise, I am not certain whether this is this morning or

yesterday morning before all the cloud and rain arrived again. It was

a miserable day, I know I'm being upstaged here by the dog... What

Robbie Cloud and rain was the weather front which is why you still

have the cloud of the Westminster area and widely over the

south-eastern quarter of the British Isles at the moment. That exit stay

dry and what we are left with is the possibility, the probability, in

fact, of shower activity through Scotland and Northern Ireland. It is

there from the beginning for many of you and through the day we will find

showers through the north of England, through the west into Wales

as well. No doubt about it, the most intense one will be later in the day

across Scotland and Northern Ireland. Here we come to cloudy zone

across the south-eastern quarter. The odd spot of rain before it moves

off into the North Sea. Bright skies follow behind. It is all there to be

head in The Wash down to the Midlands. Here come the showers

during the course of the afternoon. Would not be surprised in the

heaviest of those you may hear a little thunder and lightning. Top

temperature is 21 or 22 degrees. A word to the wise, if you are out and

about and there is a lot of things going on, a big international

airshow, for example, the UV level is quite high at the moment and the

pollen levels are very high, especially in the south. Overnight

will keep some of the showers going because the low pressure is adjacent

to Scotland by the states that the shower there to be had across the

north of the British Isles further south there is a somewhat drier

prospect, not a call by by any means at all. What are the strengths of

the wind as that low pressure trundles across the northern

Scotland. Some ofs there could be pushing towards a 40 miles an hour

to expose temperatures, some of the exposed roots could get quite gusty

there for a time. As a whole on Monday there are showers to be had

across Scotland, not to the intensity we will see today. Further

south, somewhat drier with a lot of cloud around that I think we would

get some brightness in many areas on the tops of the day around about 20

or 21 degrees. And now, back to the studio. And nothing could upstage

you, just for the record. Nothing. The headlines coming up in a few

moments here on Breakfast. Think robots and maybe you'll

picture something like this. But what about robotic muscle

and smart materials that could act as human skin,

or clothes that rehabilitate Well, that is part of what's called

soft robotics and this team at Bristol Robotics Lab

are bioengineering technologies This is a bucket of

alien saliva, right? Yeah, this is the same stuff that

drips out of the alien mouth. So Ridley Scott just used

a whole bunch of that. Though, in this case,

it is to simulate blood. This soft robot mimics how some

bacteria move through our bodies. In the future, it is thought that

nano robots will take a similar trip through our veins looking

for infection and illness. Some of the projects

they are working on here involves making assistive technology

for elderly and disabled people, like this pneumatic

artificial muscle. It can be made into any shape

and built into clothing. As you apply air, it

changes its shape so it could for instance help people

with limited grip strength. Its force is only dependent on how

much air pressure you apply. And here is some material

that can sense when that This diametric elastomer can detect

when it's being stretched, so it can sense when you are trying

to move and add extra power to maybe And it can not only detect movement,

it can also change its shape when you apply a high

enough for teach. You could use it for changeable

clothing, clothing that You can use it as a sort

of second skin to help with deep vein thrombosis,

to assist with pumping blood. It can even be layered up to create

stronger artificial muscles. It doesn't seem like it is doing

a lot, but, actually, it is very thin, it weighs almost

nothing - the active part of which only weighs,

let's say, four grams, is complicated, none of this

is extremely high-tech, using like billions of transistors,

and it is simple voltage I think that is one of the big

advantages of soft robotics, In a complicated robotic

system you have a lot With these sorts of things

it is very simple and The intelligence is in the design

and immediately used, The robotics lab in Bristol

is 50,000 square feet of innovation filled with hundreds of different

types of robots. But what nearly all have in common

is they need power to run. Over in the bio energy lab,

scientists are working on one freely available resource the world

will never run out of - Each one of these cylinders

is a microbial fuel cell device. It turns waste water

into electricity using microbes. That is their favourite

item on the menu. In this unit, two litres of urine

is fed into the fuel cell pack. The microbes eat what they need,

creating electrons as a by-product. And because they are attached

to an electrode's surface, it is all collected to produce

about 30-40 milliwatts of power. Now that's enough to slowly

charge a smartphone, power smart displays,

or power internal lights When we do it out of the lab,

we install these units out of the lab, we have many more

of them connected If you are going to Glastonbury this

year, you might see these If you choose to use the urinals,

you'll be part of an experiment which is literally putting the P

into power. These are eInk displays,

which don't require a lot of power. But a lucky few may be able

to charge their phones for a bit, Most of the pee used here comes

from staff donors at the lab. It's only good for the microbes

Superiore Sant'Anna, Ana Matronic went there to look

at attempts to simulate touch. I am at the biorobotics lab

where researchers are trying to merge human physiology

with machine engineering. The team are working on a bionic

fingertip that is capable The human sense of touch

is an incredibly complex one. I don't even need to look at these

three pieces of plastic to sense the differences in the coarseness

of the ridges. This of course presents

a huge problem to people How do you transfer that same

sensitivity into a prosthetic hand? To create a machine capable

of sensing and transmitting tactile data, first we need to understand

how bodies decode sensory stimuli. Fingertips have the highest

concentration of sensation almost Thanks to 20,000 nerve

fibres on each finger. They react to sensory information

as we move our fingers Some respond to pain,

some to temperature. Others react to

pressure or vibration. This is the characteristic that

allows our skin to interact with the environment and that

will allow an object, The bionic fingertip registers

the textures it touches On screen it may look simple,

but that is exactly the language As we touch objects, it sends nerve

impulses to the brain. And the tiny, subtle variations

in how the skin deforms as we touch changes those impulses and how

we perceive texture. This capitalises on an actual

principle and can be more effective as humans and animals in general can

interact with the environment. The professor and his team have

already had some success. Dennis Sorensen was one

of the first amputees to try out The output from the finger

was directly connected to the healthy nerves

in his upper arm. I could tell the difference between

where it was very rough and smooth. And, since this first clinical trial

a couple of years ago, the team had been trying to increase

the number of textures The experiments that we are showing

now are demonstrating the capability to encode,

for examples silk, from cotton, from elastic, from wool,

from different kinds of materials. And in this way we could restore

a more natural sense of touch to the person

wearing the prosthesis. What is learned here can be

transferred to other applications. For example, a surgical robot

could use this technology to identify tumours,

which would feel different Another kind of application

is for rescue. To allow to be present

in the environment, not only through vision,

but to have more senses available Think for example of the nuclear

disasters, or in the case The robot can go and touch

in the perceived environments, based also on the sensory feedback

that you can have remotely it can be integrated

into simple things like gloves. For instance, I could be

anywhere in the world. My husband back in New York can give

me the sensation of petting our cat. And that would be transferred

through these actuators to me Well, I can't give you that

with Rachel Burden and Ben Thompson. Downing Street and the Democratic

Unionist Party say no final deal has yet been reached over

a parliamentary pact. Late last night, both parties said

talks will continue next week and that the detail of an agreement

is still to be determined. Boris Johnson has rejected newspaper

reports of a leadership bid, The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn,

says he's ready for another General Election, insisting he can

still become Prime Minister. We'll be live in Westminster

and Belfast shortly. Pictures of the fake explosive belts

worn by the London Bridge attackers We'll hear from one of the first

officers on the scene. At that point, there were still lots

and lots of shots ringing out. I didn't know whether they were our

chaps or the bad guys. Richard Hammond is recovering

keep it going? The day will turn sunny and a few showers. I will have

the full forecast for you in 15 minutes. Thank you.

The Democratic Unionist Party says it has had "positive talks" over

a possible deal to support a Conservative minority government,

but that no final agreement has yet been reached.

Late last night, both the DUP and Downing Street released

statements, revealing that further discussions will take place later

Let's speak to our political correspondent, Leila Nathoo.

It is all a bit confusing, isn't it? We had a statement saying a deal has

been done and another saying the deal will be done later in the week.

We are not sure how far through the process we are. That is right. There

is a lot of confusion after last night concerning the status of this

deal. Downing Street said they had an agreement on the principles. A

few hours later, the DUP itself said talks were still ongoing and they

would be continuing next week. And then we had a clarification from

Downing Street that actually the details were all still being

finalised. You have to remember this is a crucial aspect of popping up

Theresa May to secure the ten DUP MPs. The argument was they had to

give the Conservatives support on key votes like the budget and

confidence motions to enable the government to survive. Getting the

details right of this deal and what concessions and what the DUP might

ask for, all of those things, whether it will be a formal

agreement or something more informal, all of these are yet to be

worked out. Certainly, the May needs to work quickly to make sure that is

in place. -- Theresa May. You talk about Theresa May. Boris Johnson

this morning said there are no troops to him trying to take over.

There are rumblings in Tory ranks, unease at Theresa May's position.

Debra accusations she should step down. Boris Johnson has certainly

been a candidate in the past four Tory leadership ambitions. He has

constantly talked about harbouring ambitions to be in the top job.

Certainly today he is shooting down immediately reports he is somehow

preparing a leadership bid if Theresa May stands down or if he has

support from cabinet colleagues to launch that bid. He is shooting back

down entirely, saying he is backing Theresa May 100%. He dismissed those

reports on social media as rubbish. He is saying let us get on with the

job. If it could not get any more chaotic, we have heard Jeremy Corbyn

has plans and has given an interview to Suns saying he could still take

Downing Street. Jeremy Corbyn has been clear from the moment of the

election result he is prepared to govern. I still think he sees a

window of opportunity here while there is uncertainty about whether

Theresa May can get numbers with support from the DUP to get the

crucial majority in the Commons. He is saying he is prepared to govern

and Labour is preparing to shoot down the Queen's Speech, the

government's programme set out a week from tomorrow. Jeremy Corbyn is

preparing to vote against the Queen's Speech. That will really be

the first test of the Prime Minister, whether the deal with the

DUP goes to plan, and whether she will have to water down some of the

contentious aspects of the Tory manifesto, pensions, the Winter Fuel

Allowance, social care funding plans she had proposed. All of those

controversial things are controversial within even her own

party. I suspect they will be slightly watered down in the Queen's

Speech. Jeremy Corbyn is clear he still sees a role for himself at

this stage. Never a dull moment. For the moment, thank you. We will be

right back with you. Of course, much more on that during the programme.

but the cordons have been lifted and Southwark Cathedral

An attempt to bring back normality to the area affected.

Simon Jones is outside Southwark Cathedral this morning.

What else is happening there today? Absolutely. The cathedral was

damaged in the aftermath of the terror attack. Police went through

the boarded-up door as they went building to building in this area to

make sure there were no attack is still at large. Also on the door,

there is a poster saying the cathedral will reopen as soon as

possible. The good news is that is going to be this morning. At how

past eight this morning, they are going to have read

-- have prayers in the cathedral. There will be books opened and

services taking place. To give you a sense of the geography, the

cathedral is there and right behind it is Borough Market where a number

of people lost their lives. The police have gone but security

remains. That is because the market has yet to reopen. It is likely to

reopen some stage later this week. They still have to do further

repairs. The leader of the cathedral said he came to this area on

Saturday night when he heard about the attack to see if he could help

out. He saw people being treated on the street. And he returned to the

area again last night. He said he went out to the bars and

restaurants, not something he would normally do of a weekend, but he

said he wanted to be part of the display of unity, to see people come

out and enjoy the area again and remember the people who lost their

lives. Really, it is a message of unity and defiance to say we will

not be cowed by these kinds of the rare tax. Doors are opening in half

an hour. -- terror attacks. It will be a chance to reflect on what

happened here a week ago. At around 8:50, we'll be speaking to a former

happened. We will also speak to the dean of Southwark Cathedral.

A boat called Happy suffered a damaged mast and another,

Other ships, like this research vessel, also diverted to help,

I've been involved with this race for 25 years.

Despite the damage, organisers have said the race will go on.

When disaster hits the UK, one of the first images we often see

is of the emergency services rushing towards danger

Last week, during the terror attack on London Bridge,

Inspector Jim Cole was one of the first police officers

He's been talking to us about his experience.

Clear the area now! As soon as the call came out, the police station

burst into life. We had two shifts. Everyone was changing over. Everyone

got into any police vehicle that would work and we all went there. It

was almost pandemonium. People were running. I could see someone was

injured on the floor. Umm, they were by the pub on the corner. I was

fortunate I had a police medical on board. I called the medic and

instructed him to go over to the entrance of a bar called captain to

set up with his equipment. I did not know whether it was our chaps or the

bad guys, but I could still hear shots. And then a stream of people

came out of the market running and screaming. So we literally just

pushed them into the basement of the pub. It seemed like the safest place

to put a large volume of people at that time, out of harm's way. Stay

down! I have been a police officer for 18 years. It just all happened,

just happened, automatically, really. There was no thought process

going on. In hindsight, it all seemed really surreal, thinking back

to it. It almost seemed like it was in real.

This morning Southwark Cathedral, which is just next to London Bridge,

will open its doors for the first time following the attack.

We can speak now to Andrew Nunn, the Dean of Southwark.

A very good morning to you. We are here, one week after the attacks,

can you talk me through your experience of this time last week

and the aftermath? What has happened in the last week? This time last

week we could get absolutely nowhere near the cathedral. It was in the

centre of the police cordon. We went without our church and our ability

to welcome people in. Within that situation, right until now when we

reopen the gates behind me and I getting ready for today's services.

It has been the strangest week, not being able to get into the church

but at least we are at this point now. Am I right in thinking that the

Church has never been closed for during any previous incident that

London has faced including during the Second World War? As far as I

know. There may well be somebody listening in who knows better than I

but as far as we can tell, this has never happened to us. During the

Second World War people swept up the church is after bomb damage and got

on with the surface. It is a different situation and we have been

working closely with the police to enable them to continue their

investigations. They had to enter the proof -- Cathedral during the

incident itself, to break through the doors to see whether all of the

terrorist suspect had been apprehended. I know you were out

last night in the area. It is quite a vibrant area and one busy with

bars and restaurants and that sort of thing. As we said, this is why

the attack last week, coming at such a difficult time for everyone when

it is quite busy there. What was the atmosphere like last night when you

were out with people? It was great. It felt rather normal. I went with

some of my other clergy colleagues around some of the bars, we had a

meal but we encourage people to do and then a few of us gathered by the

Borough Market entrants at the exact time when the attack took place,

just to keep a moment of silence. But, you know, London is a resilient

place. It is a resilient community. People around here doing what they

like to do in the Borough Market and around the cathedral and that is

enjoying themselves. It was fantastic to be out there with them

and to have lots of conversations with people who had been around, who

had friends around and share some of their memories as well. You speak

about the resilience and about London returning to normal. Clearly

London has faced challenges like this before and it is likely to face

challenges like this again. In terms of what you as the cathedral can be

doing there to support people in the area and to help people deal with

this. Being resilient does not come at no cost, let's be honest.

Resilience is very demanding. And what we can do is to help people, I

hope, find some inner strength. That is what the Church tries to do for

all people in all circumstances. And to give people a sense of hope that

evil is not stronger than good. There are so many, many millions of

people, good people around the world. Life can be affected by a few

evil people as we saw last week but the strength of goodness is so much

greater. That is what we were proclaimed today as people come to

church and we will continue to do that as we rebuild this community

together. I wanted to ask about what is happening this morning with the

cathedral reopening. A significant moment after a week of closure but,

also, what events will be taking place to commemorate what happened

last week? We have our normal service pattern, you press this

morning at nine and 11 and then the Bishop will be here at 11 to preside

for us, to bring the community together, really. I will preach. We

will have moments of reflection at the beginning of the service and

this evening there is a quiet service, we call it a lament, we

hope it will gather people together to light candles and that sort of

thing. We also have books of condolence for the borough, open in

the cathedral now for people to come and sign. In many ways we want to

try and get back to normal. The services will be as they always are

here. We are ready to receive many people who want to come back into

their cathedral. It is good to talk to you. The dean of the cathedral

reopening this morning after being closed for a week after the

terrorist attack at London Bridge Borough Market. Time now for the

weather. There were not many shadows in the

background and that is because this line of cloud which was yesterday's

what the front through parts of Scotland and Wales has not slunk

into the south-eastern corner. Continues its journey off towards

the North Sea. Following an behind, we see some showers peppering the

central part of Scotland. This will be the order of the day,

increasingly so, not just their vote in Northern Ireland where we have an

early supply of showers. We have seen a couple already across the

north-west of England and into the western side of Wales. There is a

lot of dry weather around and the thick cloud here has enough there

for the chance of a spot of rain. That will not ruin your plants if

you have any this morning in the south-east. It moves away and into

the afternoon you will see what we mean about how widespread and

intense some of the showers will be. A rumble of thunder in Scotland and

Northern Ireland and showers more widespread across the north and west

of England down into Wales. The further south and east, the drier

you will be. Many things going on at the moment. I highlighted the

airshow, I don't think there will be a problem. When you may have a

problem with the crosses of Britain is at the pollen levels are high or

very high and when you see sunshine for any length of time, particularly

in the south and south-east, the UV levels will also be very high. Think

about some protection there. In the evening and overnight some showers

fade away. That is not the case for Scotland and Northern Ireland. The

court might be any means at all. A word to the wise, if you commute

along the M8 tomorrow morning, watch out for the wind on the high ground.

There will be gusty conditions around for a time because we have

low pressure trundling over the north of Scotland. That will produce

a bit of shower activity, not the intensity of today. Elsewhere dry

weather and I are hopeful that many of you will season sunshine at some

point during the day, despite the fact that there will be much cloud

around. The top temperature around 20 or 21. Positive news like that

makes you very welcome at any time, Phil.

You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

Time now for a look at the newspapers.

Jon Tonge, Professor of Politics at University of Liverpool

is here to tell us what's caught his eye.

We should say, first of all, this poor man has been working so hard he

barely has any voice yet he still dragged himself in the this morning.

48 hours of talking has taken its toll. Thank you very much for coming

in to cast wisdom on all of this because it is quite chaotic. Let's

start with the front of the Daily Mail. The Mail on Sunday. This is

the speculation that Boris Johnson could launch a leadership bid. He

denied it on social media, he says he backs Theresa May. It is not

stopped newspapers from speculating. It is understandable that he would

deny it. He who wields the dagger really wears the crown. He does not

want to be seen as the person who would put the metaphorical knife

into Theresa May. She does seem friendless as morning, however,

there are not that many articles in the newspapers from Conservative MPs

trying to shore up her position. I think it is inconceivable, if there

is a leadership contest, if she cannot shore up a leadership, I am

sure that Boris Johnson would stand, despite the fiasco of his previous

campaign. David Davis, and a rug, they have also been touted. The

contest will be triggered by two things, one, obviously, a

resignation or a certain percentage of the party writing to trigger an

election. It is fascinating in the way the wheels of politics turn. A

few months ago, Boris Johnson himself was looking humiliated,

having built El bowed out of a hole leadership bid and now his time may

come again. But he will not jump until there is a vacancy, I would

think. Recital. Theresa May could try and stay on. She had decisive

mandate from the party not that long ago. Pulled out eventually but in

the early round there were two ballads and Theresa May was miles

ahead of the other contenders. She was very popular and that was just

last summer. Things changed very dramatically very quickly. Speaking

of the leadership struggle, we are told, certainly, that senior

Tories... They made her sacked to key assistance. You talk about her

being friendless. She is looking increasingly lonely in the job. She

is. Her assistant had to go because they were being blamed for the

election. A classic example of success having many midwives and

failure being an orphan because the blame game over the decision to call

a poll has already started. The easiest thing for all Conservative

MPs to do is to blame Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill, the aides who had

the full on assault. Theresa May claimed she was on a walk in

Snowdonia, the nice fresh air their made her gung ho and going for the

election. David Davis has been briefed, has been blamed for

triggering the early poll. The big problem is that it was never fully

explained by Theresa May by the election had been called. There was

an idea of strengthening her mandate, she could have won all

seats in England, Scotland and Wales and whether it would have made any

difference with the EU in terms of negotiating position is subject to

doubt. Did you sense that they were being played? I think the electorate

do have a sense of that. The history of snap elections is not a happy one

for the government calls it and I think she should have been talked

out of the moment it started to discuss it. Was a huge shock. We

came back after the holidays and... If you looked at the polls initially

you would have thought it was a sensible decision, that she had been

in a quite strong position. At the time, while about without the blue,

it did make sense. Given the volatility of politics more broadly,

this would always be dangerous. The reason given for calling the

election was never convincing. It was because the Labour Party was

opposing Brexit. The Labour Party agreed to trigger Article 50. So

that explanation was never possible. Does the departure of the two aides

change anything? Does it actually change anything? It does not change

anything at all full or that leaves Theresa May perhaps even more

isolated but ultimately her position depends on two things, whether she

does a deal with the D U P and, secondly, whether she has the

support of Conservative backbenchers, many of whom are

enraged they have lost good colleagues will not be returning to

Westminster completely unnecessarily, in the view of many

backbenchers. The mass quickly. Hawaiian pizza, yes or no? No. It is

now from me. Of course, no pineapple pizza. I love it so it is more about

me. This was in the newspapers this morning. The man who invented the

Hawaiian pizza has passed away at the age of 83. A Greek man who lived

in Canada and ran at pizza restaurant there and decided to

throw something fruity honour. He said he tried to put it on just to

see what the taste was like, I say well done. It tastes wonderful.

The Andrew Marr Programme is on BBC One this morning

Andrew, what have you got coming up?

Just a little bit. I am joined by Jeremy Corbyn fresh from his

extraordinary campaign of the government I am joined by Sir

Michael Fallon to talk about the future of Theresa May and plots and

Brexit and all of that. I have Lord Heseltine covering the same area

from a different perspective. I have a leading and important player in

the European Parliament on the basis of what they see emerging from all

this in London. And, finally, helping me to review the papers, and

newspaperman called George Osborne. Quite a busy programme at nine

o'clock. Go and prepare, Andrew, you have much to get through. The

headlines are up next to your breakfast. -- here on BBC Breakfast.

This is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Ben Thompson.

Coming up before 8am, John has a round-up of the sports

news and Phil will be here with the weather.

But first, a summary of this morning's main news.

The DUP says it has had "positive talks" over a possible deal

to support a Conservative minority government,

but that no final agreement has yet been reached.

Discussions are set to continue later this week.

Our correspondent, John Campbell, is in Belfast.

Can you bring us any kind of update at all about where we are with these

negotiations with the DUP, and also a sense of how it is going down in

Northern Ireland? In terms of what will be in these negotiations, we

have heard a lot over the past few days about the social policies of

the DUP, the fact they oppose gay marriage and abortion rights in

Northern Ireland. That will likely not feature in discussions with the

Conservatives because those matters are devolved to Northern Ireland.

Westminster will leave it to Northern Ireland. What the DUP are

looking for is a financial package. Go back to 2015. Another time it

looks like it would be a hung parliament. The DUP put out a

document saying they would support a minority government in a hung

parliament, with the guarantee of financial funding for

infrastructure. They said they also want to scrap the Bedroom Tax. In a

recent manifesto, they say they will not support the cutting of the

Winter Fuel Allowance and not the triple lock on the state pension. In

order to get DUP support, they will not be in the Queen's Speech.

Really, a lot of it is about money. They also have views on Brexit. For

example, Theresa May has used rhetoric about no deal being better

than a bad deal. The DUP do not believe that would be good. Northern

Ireland trades a lot with the Republic. A chaotic Brexit would be

bad for Northern Ireland. There would be a change there. Also, the

DUP don't want special status for Northern Ireland, to bind it closer

to the Republic. They don't want people to appear less than British,

needing passports to get to Belfast. In terms of how things are going

down here, there are complications. The British government in Northern

Ireland is supposed to act with impartiality. The Good Friday

Agreement says the government should be rigourously impartial. You have

to ask yourself, how can a Conservatives Secretary of State be

impartial but also closely tied to the DUP? Thank you very much.

Talking to us from Belfast this morning.

Boris Johnson has described newspaper reports that he is

planning to oust Theresa May as "tripe."

The Foreign Secretary was responding to an article in the Mail on Sunday

which claimed he was planning to launch a bid to become PM.

Earlier, the managing editor of The Spectator told us

a successful leadership challenge could trigger another election.

Jeremy Corbyn has said that he believes he can still become

Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, the Labour leader said

that his party could attempt to vote down a Queen's Speech

when Theresa May brings one to Parliament.

He told the paper that he has a mandate to deal with poverty

Scotland Yard has released pictures of the fake suicide belts worn

The belts were still on the attackers who murdered eight

people when they were shot dead by police.

the first time he's seen the tactic used in the UK.

Three men have been arrested after an easyJet flight to Stansted

The plane, which was flying from Slovenia, made an unplanned

landing in Germany, with passengers evacuated down emergency slides.

A backpack belonging to one of the men was blown up by police.

A busy weekend of sport. And more to come. Absolutely. The big talking

point yesterday was a thrilling finish for Scotland and England.

Three goals in six minutes turning a game on its head. Sadly, it did not

end well for Scotland. It was a thrilling

finish at Hampden Park. Scotland looked as though they'd

snatched victory only England remain top but for Scotland,

well, I think the fans expressions In the end, it was

heartbreak for Scotland. From joy to despair,

after recent terror attacks. There was a minute's

silence in memory of This was a match Scotland had

to win, something they had not done at home to England in 32 years

and which looked unlikely as the visitors

applied the pressure. That pressure told after half-time,

when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain came off the bench to make

an immediate impact. A goal Craig Gordon might feel

he should have saved. Scotland were bruised,

but not beaten. They were invigorated

from Griffiths. They equalised in

the closing stages. Three minutes later, unbelievably,

in almost identical fashion, Griffiths did it again, to send his

fans and team into dreamland. But with three priceless points

almost within grasp, the celebrations came to an abrupt

end, as Harry Kane had the final say, the captain for

the game for England. The questions around us

centre on character, they centre on the ability

to withstand events that And, umm, yeah, that is

what we have to show. We have to be a team

that I never beaten. That was Scotland's best ever free

kick and the second-best I have never heard noise

like that after that before. I look at the players and say

it is unfair that you have to keep coming back and taking notes

like that, but I will tell them There was a late drama

for Northern Ireland, too. They boosted their chance

of reaching the finals when Leeds midfielder, Stuart Dallas,

scored the only goal of the game They're still second in their group,

behind World Champions, Germany, who are well placed

for a play-off spot. England's women stepped

up their preparations for Euro 2017 with a really impressive 4-0 win

away to Switzerland. Arsenal striker, Jodie

Taylor, scored twice. And on BBC Two at 11 o'clock,

with our performance. Ten young guys came

He's now over a minute ahead of Froome.

Lewis Hamilton said being presented with one of Ayrton Senna's helmets

was better than any trophy, He equalled his hero's total of 65

pole positions ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix,

clocking the fastest qualifying lap ever seen in Montreal.

He was then stunned to be handed the helmet sent by Senna's family.

He said he was shaking at the honour.

And as we know, that is one of his all-time heroes.

What do you get a man with so many trophies? That. He will put it in

his apartment in Monaco, one of several.

The weather. That is Westminster this morning. And little bit grey

and dull today, it has to be said, for a weekend in June. At least it

is dry... ..Ish. That is the view of the city. There is some sun in the

Horizon. We have been promised the sun. Very optimistic. He keeps

saying I am promising. A weather forecaster can promise anything, but

it doesn't have to come true. Can I "suggest" somethings. This is the

weather front producing all of the wet weather yesterday across the

British Isles. It was that feature that some people had for a long

time. There could be some hefty showers in Northern Ireland. That

will be the order of the day. They will be widespread, as you will see.

Some have gone into the north-west of England and Wales. Generally

speaking, a lot of dry weather around. Glorious sunshine away from

the frontal zone dominating in East Anglia and the south-east. Glorious

weather in the North Yorkshire coast. For some of you, it may stay

that way. Look at this. The afternoon. Plenty of heavy and at

times oppressive weather down into the south of Wales. Be further south

and east, the more likely it is it will be dry. Tops, 22 degrees. Many

things going on at the moment, too many to list. Plenty of things to

see. It is the Farm Oak Day in England. Pollen levels. People are

ready suffering with this in the office. Very high. UV levels in the

sun are very high. Through the evening across the northern half of

return in the Northern Ireland, showers. Further south, few and far

between. Not a cold night at all. Monday morning, during the comments,

watch out on the high ground either side of the centre belt or indeed

within the. -- commute. Some gusty winds. Bear that in mind. Especially

if you are on two wheels. Low pressure is close by to the north of

Scotland. Showers, but not like today. Dry weather here. Hopefully

the cloud will break up and we will see brightness. Not as warm as the

weekend. One that is enough for me. Back to you. I will keep trying to

get him to promise us some good weather, but I don't think he will

do it. They're the king-makers promising

to bring stability to the country by keeping Theresa May in power

if they can finalise a deal. But critics say the Democratic

Unionist Party is out of step with modern Britain,

and the leader of Sinn Fein claims their relationship

with the Conservatives Sam McBride is political

editor of the News Letter, a daily newspaper which

supports the Unionists. Good morning and welcome to

Breakfast. People would not have much knowledge of the D U P before

this week and then suddenly they are in these what light, front and

centre, forming a coalition with the Tories. Would you like to address

some of the claims that it is a backward looking poll party with

social policies that are backwards. Your suggested that the party has

changed a lot over the last decade. That is correct. It is unsurprising

that people in London and other parts of the UK when they look at

some of the claims of a senior VUP figures are horrified, particularly

when they look at the order claims from the 1980s and 1990s about gay

marriage and gay rights and homosexuality. I think we really

need to look at much more recently at the party, we need to look at its

record in government. This is a party that has been delivering most

public services in Northern Ireland now pretty much a decade, in

partnership with Sinn Fein, which is a party completely opposed to it.

Not merely ideal logically but in terms of love dried, economically

and in terms of the entire constitutional question in Ireland.

The VUP are a pragmatic party and can be ruthless when it has to be in

the business of politics. You set a policy has changed and we should

point out that many of those issues are devolved to the Berlocq into

negotiations anyway. But if you look at, for example, Ruth Davison the

leader of the Scottish Conservatives, she is very concerned

about a potential deal between these two parties when there are still

issues very much at the centre. If we want to know what the VUP will

ask for in these negotiations, they have given us the big clue, they did

not expect to be in this situation this year because the polls had the

Conservatives with such a thumping lead throughout the campaign.

However, if we look back a few years ago to 2015 the party set out in

considerable detail what would ask for a scenario where it may find

itself. That is a list that is financial, over longingly. No

mention of gay marriage or any other LGBTI issue, no issue -- mention of

abortion. They want hard cash, they want financial deals to Northern

Ireland, they want infrastructure, hospitals, schools, that sort of

funding. It is a more normal negotiation, I suppose in forming a

coalition as to what the Conservatives can give them. They

also have at least, more significantly perhaps from a

Northern Ireland perspective, some things which are very specific to

the Unionist community. Things like creating legislation and things like

the flying of the Union Flag, treatment of military veterans. The

big question of the VUP is do they put those things which are cherished

by the Unionist community or do they just push for things that would

benefit everyone. If they go for the latter I think that could be popular

in Northern Ireland that list. Some may think that this is a hastily

brokered deal, is that if the deal at all. We should remember that the

Tories have been courting the VUP free number of years just in case

the sort of scenario played out. This is no shotgun marriage. The VUP

has been in a position in the Commons where the Conservatives had

been expecting in the last parliament to share members over the

course of our Parliament. They have a slim majority so right from the

start, David Cameron and then Theresa May have been courting the

VUP. They share many of the same policies when it comes to broader

economic outlook when it comes to most issues outside of that, that

narrow spectrum of social conservatives which, even some of

the Tory backbenchers would be very comfortable with some of the things

that the VUP have done. But, really, this is a party that had a champagne

reception at the Tory party conference last year, a party which

David Cameron has had in Downing Street which Theresa May has been

open about her waning of and which the deputy leader of the party

manifesto a few weeks ago was taking open credit for parts of the

Conservative manifesto in terms of the firm support for the union and

other aspects and saying that this is the evidence of our influence

with the Conservatives. This is not something that has happened
